Volume 1 The Clouds Rise Chapter 17 When the Road Comes to an End

Two powerhouses of the Hidden Realm Nine Folds were actually defeated casually?

This scene shocked everyone present, and Qin Lu's eyes widened, and an uproar was set off in his heart.

"Senpai, are you?"

He transmitted his voice with true qi and asked tentatively.

The other party ignored him, but shook his body and came to the front of the two black-robed men.

"Give you two choices, either leave or ...... Die. ”

The old man's voice was full of chill, and no one on the field did not feel trembling, as if falling into an ice cave.

"Who are you!"

A black-robed man shouted, but as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a terrifying aura as vast as an abyss from the old man in the mask, and in an instant, he seemed to see the scene of his own head flying out.

Is that an omen? If you don't do what the other party says, that's what will happen?

The two black-robed men were completely panicked, they struggled to their feet, and then fled without looking back.

"Two ......"

Zhang Siyuan was just about to speak, when he saw the old man in the mask looking at him.

"And you, aren't you leaving?"

The old man in the mask said slowly.

A chill instantly surged from the soles of Zhang Siyuan's feet, and his eyes showed horror, at this moment, he actually had the illusion of facing a giant beast in the wilderness.

"Why did Your Excellency let us go?"

Zhang Siyuan gritted his teeth and said.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he witnessed the old man in the mask raise a hand and was about to press it in the air.

At this moment, an unprecedented life-and-death crisis erupted in Zhang Siyuan's heart, he didn't dare to delay any longer, turned around and rushed out of the Qin family, and soon disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Qin Lu frowned, Zhang Siyuan was Yang Qingyao's master, if he was allowed to leave, there would be endless troubles.

What's more, those two black-robed people are obviously in the same group as Zhang Siyuan, who knows if they will lie dormant somewhere after they leave, plotting against Qin Lu?

Just as this thought was emerging, Qin Lu suddenly heard a voice appear in his head.

"That Zhang Siyuan is the elder of the Yunqi Sect, if you kill him in this public, the Yunqi Sect will definitely not let you go, as for whether he will plot against you...... You even opened the ancient road, if you can't even solve this kind of small role, it will be too disappointing. ”

Qin Lu's heart was shocked, and the word Gulu echoed in his ears like thunder.

"Senpai, who the hell are you?"

"I'll come back when you're done with the housework."

After finishing speaking, the old man in the mask disappeared directly.

Yes, it's gone, if it weren't for the hole left by two black-robed people on the ground when they smashed on the ground, everyone would just think it was all a dream.

The next moment, Zhou Zizai quickly rushed outside, Qin Lu finally reacted, and stopped the other party at the first time.

Moreover, Xue Xiaoxiao also rushed over, and the two of them went one after the other, blocking Zhou Zizai's way.

Qin Lu raised the Overlord Blade in his hand.

"Qin Lu, you have already won, why rush to kill them all!"

Zhou Zizai did not have the calmness and calmness he once had, and when the old man in the mask appeared and Zhang Siyuan left, he had already begun to retreat.

Qin Lu didn't speak, but shot at the same time as Xue Xiaoxiao.

In an instant, the sword qi and white silk were vertical and horizontal, tearing the void.

Zhou Zizai's face was hideous, knowing that Qin Lu would never let him go, he roared angrily and fought back with all his might.

I have to say that Zhou Zizai is indeed very strong, and after working hard, his aura has become stronger and stronger, and his gestures seem to be able to affect the heavens and the earth, and the offensive is quite fierce.

It's a pity that he met Qin Lu and Xue Xiaoxiao, one of them has purple true qi, and the other has an amazing bloodline, although the realm is lower than Zhou Zizai, but he still beat Zhou Zizai to the point of defeat and retreat, spitting blood from his mouth.

In the end, Qin Lu slashed Zhou Zizi's feet with a knife, causing him to fall to the ground, and his mouth kept letting out a painful roar.

"Has Qin Shuang ever returned to the Zhou family?"

Qin Lu pressed the tip of his knife against Zhou Zizi's throat and asked.

"Qin Lu, I won't let you go if I'm a ghost......"

Zhou Zizai spoke with difficulty, but was directly beheaded by Qin Lu.

"If you don't say it, I'll check it myself."

Zhou Lan and Zhou Zizai are both dead, which means that the Zhou family has completely collapsed, and Qin Lu wants to find out if Qin Shuang has come back, but it is just a matter of one sentence.

At this point, the five hidden realm powerhouses in Pancheng, except for Qin Zhan'an, all the others died in the hands of Qin Lu.

Qin Lu held the Overlord Blade in his hand and walked to the gate.

At this time, a large area was empty in front of the Qin family, and many people had already fled, among which the Zhou family, the City Lord's Mansion and other forces were nowhere to be found, and only some brave people remained, hiding in the corner, wanting to see all the process.

When Qin Lu appeared in front of the door, these people immediately panicked, they were worried that Qin Lu would kill the red eye, and even slaughtered them together.

Fortunately, Qin Lu didn't make a move, his eyes were like torches, and he said: "Spread my words, from today onwards, the sky of Pancheng will rise and fall by my Qin family master!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the people who stayed were all shocked.

Although Pancheng is a city belonging to the Owa Dynasty, for such a small city, the Owa Dynasty has always allowed it to develop, as long as it does not rebel against the dynasty, the forces within the city can compete freely.

Even if the city lord falls, it will not attract any condemnation from the dynasty.

Therefore, when Qin Lu's words spread out, the entire Pancheng fell into an endless shock.

The name of Qin Lu, if the rolling thunder, endures for a long time.

At this time, Qin Lu learned from Qin Zhan'an that in order to avoid the spread of war, he placed the rest of the Qin family in the backyard.

When Qin Lu came to the backyard, he saw dozens of people kneeling on the ground, and there was a stone plaque engraved with the word "sin" hanging behind him.

"Young master, in the past three years that you have been away from the Qin family, they have targeted your mother everywhere."

An old man walked over, holding a blank piece of paper with his name written on it, and handed it to Qin Lu.

Qin Lu glanced at it and said lightly, "Kill them all." ”

"The young master spares his life!"

"I'm waiting to know that I'm wrong, young master, ......"

The cries for mercy suddenly diffused, but in the next moment, people's heads fell to the ground, and blood flowed like a river.

In this regard, Qin Lu did not make any waves, and said: "Send the bodies of Zhou Zizai and the others back to their mansion, and send someone to collect their resources, and send them to me after counting, if anyone is not convinced, let them come to me." ”

"Yes!"

The Qin family responded in unison.

Subsequently, Qin Lu and Xue Xiaoxiao found Yuhan together.

Before Yuhan could react, Qin Lu fell to his knees.

"Lu'er, what are you doing here?"

"The child is not filial, my mother has suffered for many years, but I have been absent, which disappoints you."

There were tears flashing in Yuhan's eyes, she quickly stepped forward, helped Qin Lu up, and said in a trembling voice: "How can I blame you?" I know, if it weren't for something that you couldn't get out of, why wouldn't you go home? Lu Er, did you really go to Yunqi Sect when you left back then? ”

Qin Lu hesitated a little, and finally found an excuse to prevaricate.

The matter about Yang Qingyao was a pain in Qin Lu's heart, and he didn't want his mother to worry about him.

Mother and son are connected, and Yuhan can naturally detect that Qin Lu is hiding something.

She didn't pierce it, the sadness in her eyes was even worse, she was distressed, hugged Qin Lu and sobbed lowly.

"Child, I'm sorry for you......"

Qin Lu didn't speak, but he had mixed feelings in his heart.

He experienced three nightmarish years, during which he was most concerned about his mother.

He once thought that with Qin Zhan'an at home, his mother's life should not be bad.

He can suffer, but if his family suffers, his heart is like a knife.

As a result, the Qin family had a big change, which caught Qin Lu off guard, and at the same time, he also felt guilty of himself.

Thankfully, it's all over now.

Qin Lu gently patted Yuhan's back, and after sensing that the latter's mood gradually calmed down, he wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "Mother, let me introduce you, this is Xue Xiaoxiao, she has been with me for the past three years." ”

Hearing Qin Lu mention himself, two red creams suddenly appeared on Xue Xiaoxiao's delicate cheeks, which looked extremely moving.

"Hello, aunt."

She gave a formal salute, Yuhan saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to help her up, she stared at Xue Xiaoxiao, her eyes gradually filled with satisfaction.

She turned her head and gave Qin Lu a look, and the latter was embarrassed.

Qin Lu naturally saw what Yuhan meant, and the look in his eyes was saying that his son had finally grown up.

He hurriedly transmitted his true qi, claiming that it was not what Yuhan thought.

Yuhan was stunned for a moment, looked at Xue Xiaoxiao, and then at Qin Lu, suddenly smiled brightly, and his eyes signaled, I understand!

Xue Xiaoxiao on the side had a keen perception, and naturally could detect all kinds of hints from the mother and son, and for a while, her face became more and more ruddy, so she had to bow her head in shame.

At this time, Qin Lu caught a glimpse of the smoke curling not far away, and immediately stepped forward to solve the embarrassment of this place on the grounds of eating.

But he never thought that at the dinner table, after Yuhan introduced Xue Xiaoxiao to Qin Zhan'an, the old man who didn't look angry and arrogant suddenly smiled, and Yuhan also looked at Xue Xiaoxiao more and more satisfied on the side, although neither of them directly said some words to knock on the board, but everything was already in plain sight.

"Don't be nervous."

Qin Lu quietly held Xue Xiaoxiao's little hand below across the table.

Xue Xiaoxiao's delicate body trembled, but she quickly returned to normal, but the flush on her face became more and more intense.

"Happy today, come, Lu'er, accompany grandpa to have a few more drinks."

As soon as Qin Zhan'an poured wine into his mouth, he coughed violently.

Qin Lu hurriedly admonished, but Qin Zhan'an waved his hand and said, "After today's battle, I already know that my time is running out, rather than nesting in that dark secret room like the previous three years, it is better to take a last look at this family." ”

As soon as these words came out, the originally harmonious atmosphere was immediately diluted a lot, everyone was silent, and even the delicacies on the table seemed dim.

"What are you doing, I have no regrets after living to this age, the only pity that can be called is that I will not be able to see the day when you marry a wife and have children."

When Qin Zhan'an said this, he also deliberately signaled Xue Xiaoxiao to Qin Lu, Qin Lu smiled dumbly, but didn't say much.

He could see what Xue Xiaoxiao had been expecting.

But...... Now he can't bear that responsibility.

He still has a lot of things to do, not to mention anything else, and then he will set off for Yunqi Sect to find Yang Qingyao for revenge, this one thing alone is destined not to go well, and he doesn't know what he will face.

Seeing that Qin Lu didn't say anything for a long time, Xue Xiaoxiao's gaze was a little gloomy, but she covered it up well and didn't let others see it.

After dinner, Qin Lu and Xue Xiaoxiao walked side by side in the backyard of the Qin family, the flowers and plants were fragrant, the ancient trees were towering, and the night breeze was clear.

"Xiaoxiao, do you want to accompany me to Yunqi Sect?"

Qin Lu asked.

Although Zhang Siyuan was not there, Qin Lu had already passed the Panzhong assessment and obtained the qualification to join the Yunqi Sect, and now he was just one of the last freshman trials, and he could become an official disciple of the Yunqi Sect.

And once you become an official disciple of the Yunqi Sect, you can decide how many followers the disciple can bring into the Yunqi Sect according to the results of the trial, which is one of the rewards of the trial.

Xue Xiaoxiao did not participate in the Panzhong assessment, so he had no disciple qualifications, so Qin Lu planned to let the other party enter the Yunqi Sect as an entourage first, and then find an opportunity to change Xue Xiaoxiao's identity to a formal disciple.

He believed that as long as Xue Xiaoxiao showed his talent, it would be impossible for Yunqi Sect to give up such a good seedling.

Under the moonlight, Xue Xiaoxiao is like a fairy, showing an intoxicating beauty in the lush flowers and leaves, with bright eyes and white skin, but now there is a bit of sadness lingering between her eyebrows.

"Brother Qin, I have something I want to tell you."

Xue Xiaoxiao said softly: "Since my bloodline has been fully awakened, there have gradually been some more memory fragments in my mind, and in these fragments, I have seen my mother and the place where I was born......"

"Is it the Seven Star Palace?"

Qin Lu asked.

He remembered that when Xue Xiaoxiao's bloodline awakened, the strange silkworm phantom that appeared in his body, and Ye Wenhu had guessed that Xue Xiaoxiao's origin was related to the Seven Star Palace.

Xue Xiaoxiao nodded.

"Can you talk to me?"

Qin Lu said.

Xue Xiaoxiao did not refuse, and said what she saw in the memory fragments.

It turned out that Xue Xiaoxiao's mother was the saintess of the Seven Star Palace, and she was supposed to marry the prince of a certain dynasty, but she fell in love with Xue Xiaoxiao's father, who grew up with her since she was a child, and was also the saint's guard.

The Seven Star Palace wanted to directly erase the child, but because the child was connected to the origin of the saint, once the baby died, it would also take away the life of the saint, and in desperation, the Seven Star Palace could only wait for the saint to give birth to the child, and then planned to put the child to death.

Fortunately, the saint had already prepared, before the action of the Seven Star Palace, the saint ordered an old servant to take away the baby, but unfortunately, the matter was still revealed, the Seven Star Palace was angry, the saint was imprisoned, and the old servant, in the pursuit of the stealing of the beam for the pillar, successfully sent away the baby in her arms, but she herself was deeply encircled, life and death are uncertain.

After hearing everything, Qin Lu was shocked, he didn't think that Xue Xiaoxiao's life experience would be so miserable, his father was executed, and even his mother was imprisoned.

"Brother Qin, I want to go back and save my mother."

Xue Xiaoxiao bit her lip lightly, her voice was not loud, but it was extremely firm.

She has never been a fragile person, on the contrary, once she decides something, she will do it desperately, otherwise she would not have taken a huge risk to save Qin Lu.

Looking at the girl in front of him, Qin Lu was distressed and reluctant.

In his heart, he hoped that he could be with Xue Xiaoxiao all the time, but he also understood that he couldn't restrain the other party.

Qin Lu took a deep breath and said, "I'll go with you." ”

"Nope."

Xue Xiaoxiao immediately shook his head and said, "The Seven Star Palace is too dangerous, if you are with me, I am afraid that your life will be in danger." ”

"Then there is no danger for you to go alone? They want to kill you even when you're still an infant, not to mention that you're an adult now. ”

Qin Lu's emotions became a little excited.

"I know from the memory fragments that my mother left some back-ups, and I left this time because I planned to prepare well, and after everything was in order, I decided to go to the Seven Star Palace, so, Brother Qin, don't worry......"

Qin Lu could see that Xue Xiaoxiao was actually pretending to be relaxed, in fact, what a behemoth the Seven Star Palace was? This force stands at the top of Zizhou, and even Yunqizong looks much inferior in front of it, but as a result, such a heavy responsibility is placed on the shoulders of a young girl, and anyone will feel breathless.

But what about that?

This is a path that Xue Xiaoxiao must take, and she doesn't even have a choice.

"I'm still too weak......"

Qin Lu sighed secretly, if he had absolute strength, where did he need Xue Xiaoxiao to bear this?

"When you go to the Seven Star Palace in the future, you must tell me that no matter where I am, as long as I am not dead, I will bring thousands of troops to help you, even if you kill the Seven Star Palace, you will not hesitate."

He doesn't have the strength now, but that doesn't mean he won't have it in the future.

This is Qin Lu's promise, which contains his determination without hesitation.

Xue Xiaoxiao looked at the young man in front of him, and was a little stupid for a while.

"Okay, a word is a ......"

"It's a deal!"

"When are you going to leave?"

"I want to wait until you officially enter the Yunqi Sect before leaving, I'...... I can't bear Brother Qin. ”

The evening wind is always a little cool, which seems to be able to blow away the fatigue of people, but it cannot blow away the sorrow in the hearts of young people and girls.

The two stopped talking, and walked slowly along the path in the courtyard, time seemed to freeze at this moment, their backs were like a painting, tall and slender, but with a little amazement.

It's a pity that the road will come to an end.
