Chapter 159. Once Upon a Time (3)
This time, the crowd was briefly plunged into darkness.
But the perception was still there, and everyone didn't panic too much, but thought about the scene they had just seen.
"She actually agreed to this, I'm afraid it will be rare to live in peace in the future." Ji Linxing muttered softly.
"This third prince is really cunning." Jiang Xiaoyue said softly, "The bitter meat meter is also very handy to use."
Others feel the same way.
Soon, when the light came into view again, what they saw began to look strange.
Most of the time, they no longer see any details.
Time began to run out of time.
However, all the images they see, have one thing in common.
Almost all of them are related to the god of war named "Ember Shadow".
Year 1.
She responded to the request of the three princes of Li and entered the battlefield single-handedly.
Dressed in azure pigment clothes, she looked weak and simple, and everyone didn't take her to heart.
But this is "very harmless to look at." But in a few breaths, they captured the enemy generals alive among thousands of enemy troops.
It directly frustrated the morale of the entire army.
Immediately afterward, she effortlessly suppressed the one behind the enemy country head-on, cultivating to a "peerless powerhouse" who had already reached the ninth order.
And she herself didn't even use a weapon during the whole process.
In the era of the end of the law, you can dominate one side above the eighth order, not to mention that Ember Shadow can't explore to the end.
An extraordinarily strong man is completely capable of influencing the course of a war.
Forced by her terrifying deterrent, the enemy nation quickly admitted defeat and retreated.
In this way, she fought bloodlessly, which can be described as a great merit to save thousands of people in the two countries from fire and water.
After this battle, she quickly became famous.
But as the old saying goes, a tree is a big thing.
She stepped in to stop a war, but it was as if she was caught in a whirlpool.
Li Guo became famous because of her appearance.
But this has also aroused deep jealousy among other tribes and countries.
So soon, they joined forces and tried to unite the forces of everyone to annihilate the Li Kingdom in one fell swoop.
After such an "accident", Ember Shadow stayed for the time being.
With her strong strength, she shocked all forces and did not dare to act recklessly.
But the interesting thing is that she helped Li resist foreign enemies, but she also did her best to prevent Li from invading other countries in turn.
In such a chaotic era of separation, an era that should have been full of killing, but she was forcibly stopped by her in this brutal and simple way.
The royal family of the Li Kingdom did not question her decision, but trumpeted her exploits, and for a while, the name of the Ember Shadow of the God of War resounded all over the world.
Li Guo also gained a lot because of some contact with her.
Ember didn't pay attention to that, and she spent months alone traveling to many places in the world.
saved ordinary people who suffered from war along the way.
Others only think that she is compassionate to the world, so she does not hesitate to work so hard.
For a time, many good stories were widely circulated.
But the few people who were watching could see clearly that she was saving people by the way, and her real purpose seemed to be to find something.
The second year.
At the beginning of spring, Ember Shadow's footprints have spread all over the mountains and rivers, and she has saved many people, but it still seems that she has not found what she is looking for.
So in the end, it can only be fruitless.
However, when she walked back to Hanshan alone in silence, she met the three princes of the Li Kingdom who had been squatting for a long time.
That night, Yuan Chaoshen, the monarch of the Li Kingdom, personally led all the people in the capital of the Li Kingdom to kneel and worship outside the cold mountain.
This kneeling is the whole night.
Wu Yang
The crowd lined up from the bottom of the cold mountain to the edge of the sky.
The people who knelt on the ground, who had not slept all night, prostrated one after another. As if tirelessly, he earnestly pleaded for the protection of the god of war.
Under the moonlight, the cold mountain was still as before, silent for a long time.
As if silently expressing the owner's refusal.
can see that Ji Linxing and a few people here are already frowning.
The Li Kingdom used these innocent people as bargaining chips to forcibly force the God of War to merge into the Li Kingdom's camp.
The real reason behind this is not necessarily as selfless as they say.
They prefer to believe that most of the Li royal family is thinking about themselves.
If it were someone else, maybe it wouldn't work.
But according to the few things they know about this god of war, this trick is probably useful for her.
Sure enough, a few people just muttered in their hearts, and the sky gradually became clearer.
In the faint morning light, Ember Shadow appeared in front of everyone with a calm face, and silently helped up an old man kneeling in the front.
After that, she became a well-known national teacher of the Li Kingdom.
put on the gorgeous but heavy robe that represented the dignity of the "national teacher".
In addition to prohibiting the foreign invasion of Li and rekindling the flames of war, she can almost be said to have done her best to help.
Medicine, Classics, Spiritual Artifacts......
As long as the royal family of Li asks for it, she will give it.
is like a boy who scatters money, without restraint.
She didn't seem to care much about that, and spent most of her time fiddling with something by herself.
Taking advantage of her influence, the Li State grew rapidly, and even without the use of force, it quickly annexed various small countries around it.
Lovely human desires are sometimes endless.
In the fourth year, the surrounding areas of Li were basically stable, and all of them were included in the territory of Li State, and there was no country or tribe that could compete with Li State for the limelight.
Immediately, the Li Kingdom began to gather the monks and Lingwu families in the world, intending to form a powerful army.
An army made up entirely of high-ranking monks.
This will be an invincible force on the battlefield, and it will only belong to their Li royal family.
With Ember Shadow's prestige, this thing went very smoothly.
Originally, they did this thing in a concealed way, but they were still hit by the ember shadow who accidentally came out of the customs to breathe.
The human and material evidence was there, and the royal family of Li was panicked.
However, unexpectedly, Ember Shadow was very supportive of their idea of forming a "powerful army".
This is almost completely inconsistent with her single-minded approach to stopping the war.
However, the Li royal family doesn't care about this.
Now that they had crossed the clear path on Ember Shadow's side, they simply proceeded directly in the name of Ember Shadow.
This attracted many truly capable families or monks to start to move.
Soon, the strength of the Li State, because of the addition of these people or forces, has changed qualitatively.
And among all the Lingwu families who came to hear the wind, there was one that was very special.
Their family major is at the peak of the eighth order, and their combat ability is extremely good, and the family strength is very strong, and there are many talents.
Even in the Lingwu Realm, it is a big family that everyone knows.
For them, Li can be said to have put a lot of effort into it and promised a lot of benefits.
However, unlike the ingenuity of other families, this family seems to be determined to meet Ember Shadow.
even let out the words, saying that as long as they can see her, their entire family will be willingly driven.
With this sentence, for this requirement, Li Guo naturally found a way to meet it.
Originally, seeing this, Ji Linxing and the others didn't have much reaction.
After all, after looking at it all the way, they can see the temperament of the Li royal family clearly.
However, when the head of the family met with Ember Shadow, they were one
The pedestrians were dumbfounded.
Ember Shadow rarely refuses the Li royal family's request, so in the evening of the same day, he took some time to meet the head of the family.
He was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties, but he was mild-mannered. The body is calm and atmospheric, giving people an extremely stable feeling.
However, the moment he saw the Ember Shadow, his eyes suddenly turned red.
knelt heavily on the ground, and bowed to her reverently and respectfully: "Yan Changning, meet Your Excellency!"
His voice was choked, but his tone was agitated.
Ember Shadow was stunned for a moment in the face of the sudden salute, and pondered for a moment, as if remembering something, and then suddenly laughed, "It's grown so big."
The smile melts like ice and snow, and spring returns to the earth.
Ji Linxing, who was next to him, was a little distracted: "After watching it for so long, it seems that she is laughing for the first time......
And at this time—
"Spirits? What's wrong with you?" Jiang Xiaoyue looked at the stunned Yan Ling and asked with some concern.
Everyone's eyes turned for a moment.
Then, at this moment, it seems that he has not come back to his senses.
She muttered in a bit of a trance, "No...... How could it be ......?"
"Yan Ling, do you know this 'Yan Changning'?" Wen Jinfang asked in a low voice.
Wen Jinfang's voice made Yan Ling come back to his senses slightly.
She looked at everyone almost a little sluggishly, and her voice had a slight hesitation: "Yanjia...... This is the name of the first head of the family...... Moreover, he is the father of the 'Yan Shuyu' predecessor I said before......
Ji Linxing's eyes widened suddenly.
The speculation that was about to fade away in my heart resurfaced strongly, and occupied all thoughts with lightning speed.
is also the master of Hanshan, and he has something to do with the Li country, and he is a person who has been followed by the Yan family for generations-
This Ember Shadow ......
Nine times out of ten, it's just a joy of words!
This kind of speculation was originally gradually faded because of the difference in temperament between the two, but at this moment, it is like a fire that ignites the prairie and erases all hesitation and doubt very strongly.
And yet—
As soon as I knew that the hero was her, everything became less pleasant.
"Dr. Wen, you already saw that?" Ji Linxing glanced at Wen Jinfang, who had not been very interested, and asked softly.
The crowd looked at him with some nervousness.
Wen Jinfang nodded slowly.
"No wonder......" Ji Linxing sighed, "I felt that your emotions were not quite right from the beginning."
Among the few of them, even if they are Yan Ling, they can more or less see that this Li country is not an object worthy of deep friendship.
But at most, it's just a sigh for the god of war.
But Wen Jinfang was a little depressed about everything about this Ember Shadow from beginning to end.
