The moonlight is hazy.

Cold smoke lingered on the black water, tentatively sticking out wisps of mist, swirling, climbing up the damp river beach.

Suddenly.

A figure broke into the silent place.

The cold fog that was trying to fill the bluestone on the shore was forced back to the surface of the river.

The person who came was Niu Yuanping.

He stood on the top of the bluestone and looked into the river, looking for the carp spirit that had invited him to come.

I silently thought to myself, "Could it be...... You have to say the goblin's name three times, right? ……”

While thinking, he looked down on the water.

The moonlight shone in the shallow area near the river, shining in the darkness.

Niu Yuanping looked at it steadily.

However, there is no trace of the tide.

So he was going to say the name of the monster.

But at this moment!

Directly below the bluestone he was standing on, there was a faint red glow on the river waves.

The light immediately attracted Niu Yuanping's attention there.

He stared.

Just as I saw the blood-colored light on the water waves condense into a red carp figure.

Its fins shook slowly, steady.

That's right!

It's tracing tides!

But I saw that it waged its tail and exposed the head of the fish.

Looking at Niu Yuanping, Su Xi's fish face, which seemed to be a teacher, picked up a smile.

"Childe! We meet again! ”

A very magnetic middle-aged man's voice came ashore from the throat of the carp spirit.

Niu Yuan stared at it expressionlessly, and responded lightly, "Hmm...... Meet again. ”

Immediately, he asked, "What is the matter with you asking me out?"

"Hahaha! ……”

Su Xi laughed, "Could it be that the prince became the concubine of this Great Yan Kingdom, and he forgot the task assigned by Her Royal Highness the Dragon Maiden?"

Niu Yuanping's brows furrowed, but he quickly stretched out again.

He smiled slightly, "Of course I haven't forgotten!" …… Haven't I always been looking for opportunities to get things done? ”

"Oh?"

Su Xi asked in a deep voice, "How's the progress?"

You can hear it.

The fish was talking to itself in an interrogative tone.

Niu Yuanping's eyes flickered, and he said lightly, "I have found a few locations in the array, but I didn't dare to act rashly."

"Why?"

"Because the ancestor of the Yan family is still in the world! I'm worried that when the Boundary Breaking Nail is inserted into the formation eye, it will alarm him, and if it alarms the Yan Clan's Ancestor, my situation will be very dangerous! ”

Tracing the tide was silent.

It floated quietly in the waves, looking up at Niu Yuanping, looking thoughtful.

Niu Yuanping saw this.

Immediately striking while the iron was hot, he continued, "I said a long time ago that this matter needs to be considered in the long run! I had to keep myself safe before I could do anything else. ”

Su Xi smiled.

"Childe became the master of the Yan clan...... Shouldn't it be a dislike for Her Highness the Dragon Maiden? ……”

Hearing this, Niu Yuanping's eyes flashed quietly.

Indeed, he had a different heart.

But at this moment, it must not be admitted!

Even if you deny it, you can't let the monster know your true intentions!

So, he smiled slightly and said, "Where do I dare to have a different heart?" I have to rely on Her Royal Highness the Dragon Maiden to give the antidote pill to live. ”

I showed weakness first.

So that this carp spirit can let down his guard and suspicion.

Then he continued, "The reason why I became a colt is actually to quickly gain the trust of the Yan clan! Only by becoming a family with them can you enter and exit the Yanwang Palace more casually, looking for opportunities to insert the boundary breaking nail! ……”

Niu Yuanping said this very sincerely.

"Sacrificing hue and marrying Princess Yan is completely for the convenience of completing the tasks assigned by Her Royal Highness the Dragon Maiden! …… Please also say a few kind words when you return to the dragon girl! ”

After Su Xi listened to these words, a pair of fish eyes implied a hint of thoughtfulness.

Niu Yuanping had been observing this carp essence, staring at the look and expression on the face of the fish.

At this moment, it seems to be much less suspicious and suspicious of itself.

Then he struck while the iron was hot, and continued to speak, "Now, not long after I became a colt, I have just gained the trust of the Yan clan!" But it will take some time to completely remove their wariness and defensiveness of me as an outsider! Therefore, for the task arranged by Her Royal Highness the Dragon Maiden, you really can't rush it! Otherwise, the slightest carelessness will definitely attract the attention of the ancestor of the Yan family, thus making the previous efforts undone. ”

That's right!

This is Niu Yuanping's procrastination strategy.

He turned the matter of becoming the concubine of the Great Yan Kingdom into an indispensable ploy to complete the task assigned by Her Royal Highness the Dragon Maiden.

And use this as an excuse to stall as much as you can!

Drag it out for as long as you can.

At this moment, after saying this speech, Niu Yuanping continued to stare at Su Xi.

Want to see how it reacts next?

But seeing that the carp spirit was silent for a long time.

Then it raised its eyes and looked over, and said in a deep voice, "Childe's concerns...... But it makes sense......"

When Niu Yuanping heard this, he was secretly happy.

"Did you get through the tricks? Not bad!! ……”

I thought so in my heart, but the look on my face was still as calm as water.

He stared faintly at the fish in the water.

I want to see what this monster has to say next!

Su Xi's eyes flashed slightly at this time.

He was silent thoughtfully for a while.

After a long time, he raised his eyes and looked at Niu Yuanping and said, "I will truthfully report the child's plans and concerns to Her Royal Highness the Dragon Girl!" …… In this way, I will retire for the time being, and come back to disturb each other another day. ”

In other words, it will not delay any longer.

I turned around in the water three times, and then the figure turned into a red light and shadow! Gradually disappearing into the waves of the river.

Su Xi left.

The moonlit river is still filled with cold smoke.

Niu Yuan stood flat on the big bluestone on the shore and stood for a long time.

He saw that the carp spirit had completely disappeared.

His eyes flashed slightly, and he pondered in his heart, "In this way, I will be able to buy a lot of time!" During this period, I must improve my cultivation realm as soon as possible and gain more powerful combat strength! ”

Niu Yuanping was very clear in his heart.

Only with absolute strength can you deal with these demons and monsters hidden in the territory of the Great Yan Kingdom to the end in the future.

Dragon Girl Yuyixue took advantage of the opportunity of Qi Fei's rebellion this time, and she did get a very big benefit!!

In the entire territory of the Great Yan Kingdom, I am afraid that in addition to the Yan King Palace, which is protected by the Demon Slaying Enchantment Array, there should already be demonic forces infiltrating large and small cities!

The situation is quite not optimistic......

Niu Yuanping is now the director of the Demon Suppression Division, and he has to think about some things!

You must be prepared to fight the monsters for a long time......

In addition, he also hoped that when his cultivation strength increased, he would be able to resist the onset of poison pills.

If you can use the power of cultivation to withstand the onset of toxins, then you will no longer have to worry about the future! You don't have to worry about dealing with monsters anymore, you can rest assured that you can be bold and tear your face directly with Yuyi Xue!

Niu Yuanping looked up at the moonlight.

It's not early......

"It's time to go back, so as not to make Qianqian aware of the worry......"

Then he turned around and descended the bluestone and escaped into the darkness.

However, not long after he left, a figure crept in.

The figure stood in the position where Niu Yuanping was standing just now, and looked down at the river.

That's right!!

The one who came was Yan Qianqian.

She frowned and stared at the water waves for a long time, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

At this time, Yan Beichen, who was far away in the ancestral cave of the Yanwang Palace, opened his eyes.

In the darkness, he smiled.

"This little doll...... There are a lot of secrets on your body......"
