In the ice field, the night ghosts retreated one after another, and never launched an offensive again.

Since the Northerners arrived in the Far North, the Night Ghosts' offensive has weakened, and they have retreated to the bottom of the glaciers of the Ten Thousand Miles Ice Field.

For almost a month, there was no more fighting.

The night ghost disappeared into the white ice as if it had never appeared.

Even if he is in the ice field, Xiao Jingyu always pays attention to the major events of the court in Kyoto.

Five days ago, after Xiao Jingyao's wedding, he took Li Chuchen to the south.

The palace of the king of Chu suffered Li Haomiao's revenge.

These two things touched Xiao Jingyu's heart.

After Xiao Jingyao's wedding, the civil officials led by Li Xiuyuan all fell to Xiao Jingyao.

And the Chu Wangfu was besieged by Li Haomiao, and Xiang Ji was still in the Lonely Sky Tower, which also meant that his Xiao Jingyu's biggest reliance, the Chu Wangfu, would also overturn at any time.

The most important thing is that there was no reaction in the palace to Li Haomiao's suppression of the Chu Palace, as if he acquiesced in the matter and connived at Li Haomiao's words and deeds.

After the henchmen of the king of Chu Xiang were admonished by the Chengming Palace, they were found to be guilty of corruption and bribery and other crimes one by one by the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and they were imprisoned by the Metropolitan Procuratorate on the same day.

Xiao Jingyu knew that this was Xiao Yuande's means, and this was also determined to eradicate Xiang's power in the court.

But after Xiang's henchmen are eliminated one by one, Xiao Jingyu's supporters will become fewer, and he needs the support of these people under Xiang's command to compete for the throne.

Thinking about this, Xiao Jingyu rushed towards Kyoto non-stop.

If it weren't for the support of King Xiang of Chu, Xiao Jingyu would never be Xiao Jingyao's opponent.

It's a joke!

But what Xiao Jingyu didn't know was that Xiao Yuande never gave him hope of winning the heir.

Even the guards beside him, Wuyou, one of Yan Yun's eighteen horsemen, were assassinated by Xiao Yuande.

Uyou died on the steppe.

On a quiet night, the strong man who opened the monument died quietly in the heavily guarded barracks.

Who can kill a strong man who opens a monument like this silently?

Xiao Jingyu couldn't think of it, except for the powerhouses at the grandmaster level, no one could do this.

Coupled with the turmoil in Nanzhou Mansion, Xiao Jingyu reasonably suspected Li Haomiao.

......

......

In Nanzhou Mansion, Li Haomiao drank in Baiwei Tower all day long, and his sword was in the sky above the Chu Palace, and the terrifying sword intent permeated the palace.

He has already killed many people, all of whom were the old subordinates of Xiang Ji twenty years ago, and they were also participants in the overnight fire in Beiliang Mansion.

In front of the palace of the king of Chu, blood is seen every day.

One by one, everyone is worried about their life and death.

Mr. Three followed Li Haomiao's rules to hunt down Yu Zhi, and what he was afraid of was Li Haomiao's desperate pursuit.

Now, Yu Zhi is dead, and Mr. San's heart is a little relieved.

But Li Haomiao is more troublesome than Yu Zhi.

"It is said that Li Haomiao's words are not credible. Now he is blocking the gate of the Chu Palace, and if he continues to kill like this, it will be our turn. Yi Baishou said lightly.

Mr. Three angrily slammed the cup on the table, splashing a puddle of water. "I knew I should have killed that kid in Kyoto. Anyway, Li Haomiao will not let us go no matter what. ”

Yi Baishou chuckled, and the only left hand was shaking the paper fan.

"Not necessarily. Twenty years ago, what really happened in Beiliang Province? Yan Yun rode eighteen times, and half of them went. I think it's these people that Li Haomiao wants to kill. ”

As he spoke, Yi Baishou's gaze fell on Xiang Yan.

Half of the people of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen are in the palace of the king of Chu, and the rest are not in the Nanzhou mansion.

Among these people, there are hundreds of hands, and they do not know what happened twenty years ago. Why did he attract Li Haomiao's vendetta?

Yi Baishou continued: "Boss, even if you don't say it, I can guess some. The brothers are not afraid of death, but they must die to understand that they cannot die under Li Haomiao's sword in vain. ”

Immediately, everyone looked at Xiang Yan with an inquiring look.

Xiang Yan leaned on the pillars of the pavilion and looked up at the ancient tower in the sky. He didn't explain, remembering the fire that night, and Jiang Xiyue.

Xiang Ji admires Jiang Xiyue, but King Xiang has a dream, and the goddess has no heart.

Jiang Xiyue is someone else's woman after all.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everything is waiting for the Lord to come out of the Lonely Sky Tower. If Li Haomiao enters the palace, I will be the queen of your palace. Xiang Yan said calmly.

He knew the secrets of the past, so he was extremely calm.

Killing people is to pay for their lives, just to see if the other party has the ability to take his life.

At this time, a head fell from the sky, causing a panic among the people in the house.

Xiang Yan knew that this was the general who went to Beiliang Mansion with him, and twenty years later, this person had become a general, guarding Jiangnan City.

Today, he was still killed by Li Haomiao.

Everyone looked at the dead head, and a trace of fear flashed in their eyes.

Maybe tomorrow, their heads will fall to the ground like this.

"Xiang Ji, go out of the tower and die."

The sound of the sword roaring like yesterday reached the depths of the Lonely Sky Tower.

Xiang Jipan sat in the tower, his eyes closed, and his true qi continued to hit the last pass, but no matter how hard he meditated, the last pass did not move at all.

The chances of the Lonely Sky Tower are not all useless in breaking the realm.

If you can feel the opportunity of enlightenment, you can naturally break through the realm and become a generation of grandmasters.

For example, Li Haomiao has done it.

The opportunity was placed in front of Xiang Ji, but unfortunately Xiang Ji struggled for a long time and still couldn't take the last step.

In addition to this, there is a second way - to become the guardian of the Lonely Sky Tower.

Admittedly, this is not a good choice, but countless cultivators want to see the scenery of the martial arts.

Great temptations also come at a great cost.

And at the cost of freedom for the rest of your life.

After becoming a tower keeper, you will naturally be able to break through the realm. But from then on, the tower keepers could not leave the Lonely Sky Tower, and could only guard this ancient tower in this life, enjoying the endless loneliness and the admiration of the world.

The turmoil in Jiangnan City continued to reach Xiang Ji's ears.

Those dead subordinates, the crisis encountered by the Chu Palace......

But Xiang Ji didn't care about these at all, the only thing he cared about was Jiang Xiyue.

Since that night in Baiwei Tower, Jiang Xiyue has disappeared from everyone's sight. No one was able to find Jiang Xiyue's whereabouts, and even Qiu Ruoruo's Liuying never saw Jiang Xiyue again.

"Xiyue, do you still know after all?" Xiang Ji missed Jiang Xiyue and was unwilling.

"Why don't you love me? But is it the Yushan River? What's so good about him, and how can he compare to me? ”

"I'm still alive, one person is above ten thousand people, and you have become the noble princess of Chu. But what about him, what can he give you, you have been hiding in the dark with her all your life, powerless. ”

"Xiyue, why did you leave me!"

Xiang Ji couldn't understand why Jiang Xiyue, the obsession of his life, wanted to leave him?

The royal power is rich and the glory is added, and there is no more noble woman in the world than Jiang Xiyue, isn't this enough?

"It must be that evil seed, Xiyue is still thinking about that evil seed. As long as that evil seed is killed, there will be no more bloodlines of Yushanhe in the world, and at that time, Xiyue will return to me. ”

"She'll definitely come back to me!"

Suddenly, Xiang Ji's true qi began to scurry around, bombarding the surrounding walls.

The mind is chaotic, and the anger is really chaotic.

Because of Jiang Xiyue, Xiang Ji's heart was disturbed. He had an obsession in his heart again, he wanted to find Jiang Xiyue back.

Xiang Jibai slammed a palm at himself, blasting out the blood in his chest.

"Tower keeper, I promised."

Xiang Ji's voice echoed through the empty Lonely Sky Tower.

In the next moment, countless chains flew out of the darkness, like branches wrapped around Xiang Ji's limbs.

The voice of the tower keeper rang out.

"Hold on to your heart and don't resist."

Xiang Ji suddenly entered a wonderful realm, and those great dao perceptions were instilled into Xiang Ji's consciousness along the chains.

The heavens and the earth are vast, and all things are vibrant, or they rush to the sky, and they fall to the dust.

You can pick up the stars in the nine skies, and you can catch the dragon in the abyss, travel to the fairy island in the east, and enter the Buddhist temple in the west to distinguish the scriptures.

Cultivation is like a reverse journey, all living beings are guests, and once they attain the Tao, heaven and earth will be close to them.

Scenes flashed in front of Xiang Ji's eyes, these are all the great road insights left by the ancestors thousands of years ago. They have entered the Grandmaster, and their realm is profound, so naturally they are not able to comprehend it.

If you comprehend it, you will once attain the Tao like Li Haomiao and step into the grandmaster.

But Xiang Ji can't comprehend it, so these avenue perceptions forcibly enter Xiang Ji's heart, and use these countless insights to break the last barrier for Xiang Ji.

This is to use the power of others, with the help of the will of the Lonely Sky Tower, to break through the realm.

The price of a fake hand is the price.

In an instant, Xiang Ji's breath continued to rise, and the true qi in his body boiled like a blazing fire.

When he entered the tower, he was a strong man who opened the monument and nine products.

Becoming a grandmaster is a silver lining.

This line is also a chasm that is difficult for countless strong people to cross.

As Xiang Ji's aura climbed, he could clearly feel that the last pass was beginning to shatter.

The feeling made him happy, and what he didn't realize was that the chains that had wrapped around him from the Tower of Solitary Sky had gradually become transparent, and eventually no one could see them.

Airplanes!

Airplanes!

Airplanes!

The chains trembled again and again.

Xiang Ji's body roared again and again, like the sound of a landslide and a crack.

The voice of the tower keeper was heard again.

"The Lonely Sky Tower will help you break through the realm, and you will guard this tower for the rest of your life."

As soon as the words fell, Xiang Ji's head was empty, as if nothing had happened, as if something had happened again.

Xiang Ji vaguely felt that he had lost something very important.

"With your soul, sacrifice to the tower."

"People are in the tower, life and death are the same!"

At the moment, Xiang Ji felt that his aura had become as mysterious and ancient as this Lonely Sky Tower, and there was a sense of luck connecting him and the ancient tower.

Immediately afterward, he felt a steady stream of power rushing towards him.

"The power of the Ten Rank Grandmaster. Is this the Grandmaster realm? ”

Xiang Ji felt that his every move could shatter the mountains, a power he had never imagined.

Xiang Ji stepped out of the Lonely Sky Tower, and in front of him were mountains and rivers that he hadn't seen for a long time.

The tower keeper sat in front of the Lonely Sky Tower, drinking wine. "Now, you're a tower keeper. According to the rules of the Lonely Sky Tower, you have three years to do things in the world, and you will have to guard this tower for the rest of your life. ”

"Three years?" Xiang Ji stood on the top of the mountain and looked at the Jiangnan City. "Three years is enough."
