Hearing Nangong Yueze's question, Si Ming nodded and told everything that happened in the dungeon of the Imperial City before.

Jiu Ge on the side couldn't hear what the two were talking about, but from Nangong Yueze's expression, she could see that the situation seemed to be quite serious.

"Your Highness, that demon girl was pierced through the chest by Xiaoxian's sword, she shouldn't live long, and now there is only that mortal named Nangong Jing left, look, do you want Xiaoxian to cast a spell to search for his whereabouts?" Si Ming bowed down and asked.

Nangong Yueze pondered for a moment, shook his head, and said, "There is no need for the time being, as a commander, without the permission of your father or mother, it is not appropriate for you to use divine power to interfere too much in the affairs of the mortal world." ”

"But ......"

"Since the demon girl was seriously injured by you, this matter will end here, but unfortunately, we couldn't find the hiding place of the Phantom Fox Clan in the mortal realm through her." Nangong Yueze sighed lightly and said.

"It's all to blame Xiaoxian for not doing things well, and please ask His Highness to punish Xiaoxian." Si Ming said ashamedly.

"Okay, you can't blame you for this matter, you go down first, and I'll figure out the rest."

"Yes, Your Highness, the little fairy will retire first." Si Ming answered, turned around and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Seeing Si Ming leaving, Jiu Ge came to Nangong Yueze's side, "Xiao Ze, who was that person just now, why have I never seen him?" ”

Nangong Yueze didn't answer Jiu Ge's question, but turned her head to look at her, and said helplessly: "Ge'er, I'm really sorry, we finally met, and we're going to separate again." ”

"Huh? Is something wrong? Jiu Ge immediately asked nervously.

"Yes." Nangong Yueze nodded, "Nangong Jing escaped from prison not long ago, and there are still many Imperial City soldiers who died during the siege, so I have to hurry back." ”

"What, Nangong Jing escaped?" Jiu Ge was taken aback, "The Imperial City dungeon is heavily guarded, how did he escape?" ”

"It was the demons who infiltrated the dungeon and rescued him." Nangong Yueze said in a solemn tone.

"Demons?" Jiu Ge's face changed suddenly, and she subconsciously remembered the Blood Demon Clan she had seen in the Yuyue Kingdom before, and she couldn't help but feel a touch of worry in her heart.

"Ge'er, I will find out these things as soon as possible, you don't have to worry, just stay with your master with peace of mind." Nangong Yueze gently held Jiu Ge's hand and said softly.

"Well, you have to watch out for yourself." Jiu Ge nodded.

"Good." Nangong Yueze smiled and touched Jiu Ge's head, then greeted Helian Wenyan and hurriedly left the auction hall with Soho.

……

On the other side, Nangong Jing didn't know how long he had been running, and it wasn't until he ran into a forest that he slowed down and stopped to gasp for air.

Xu had been in the dungeon for too long, his whole body was sore and uncomfortable, and his throat was even more painful, and every time he breathed, he felt a stinging sensation in his heart.

After raising his eyes and looking around, making sure that no one was following him anymore, Nangong Jing gritted his teeth and said coldly: "Nangong Yueze, it's all because of you that I ended up in such an embarrassing situation, you wait for me, I won't spare you, even if you are a god, I will kill you sooner or later!" ”

As the words fell, he shuffled slowly towards the other end of the woods, with heavy steps.

Just when Nangong Jing had just walked not far, a purple ball of light suddenly smashed down on the ground not far from him.

The light and shadow dissipated, and a figure fell out of the light, and then fell heavily into the grass.

"Pss

After the man fell to the ground, a mouthful of blood spat out, and at the same time, his body began to twitch violently, "Ahem...... cough cough cough ......"

Nangong Jing stood in place and was stunned for a long time, until he saw the man's face clearly, his eyes widened suddenly.

The figure turned out to be ...... Purple Kite!!

"Kite, how are you?!" Nangong Jing rushed over in a panic, picked up the purple kite, and looked at her with a worried face.

When he saw the purple kite's pale cheeks and the chest that was constantly dripping blood, Nangong Jing's whole heart lifted, "Kite...... Kite ...... You...... How could you be hurt like this......"

The purple kite struggled to raise her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and then turned her eyes to look at the man in front of her.

"South...... Nangong Jing ......" she shouted three words with difficulty.

"I'm here, I'm here, you...... You've got to hold on! Nangong Jing stretched out his hand to hug the purple kite in his arms, and his heart swelled with distress.

"Nangong Jing, I'...... I'm dying, I'm glad to see you before I die......" Purple Kite's pale cheeks raised and a light smile grew.

"No, don't!" When Nangong Jing heard this, the hand around the purple kite trembled violently, he shook his head desperately, and shouted: "Iris, I don't want you to die, don't be afraid, I'll take you to the nearest Linshui City now, there are still people with me, I will let them find a way to save you......"

"Nangong Jing, there's no need to ......" Purple Kite lightly opened her cherry red lips and said slowly: "The entire Nebula Empire is now Nangong Yueze's, where will there be your people?" ”

"But...... But ......" Nangong Jing clenched his fists, his face covered with tears.

He hated himself for being incompetent, hated himself for being useless, hated himself for not being able to protect his beloved!

"Ahem...... Ahem...... "The purple kite coughed lightly a few more times, and then raised his hand to conjure a purple bottle, "Nangong Jing, this bottle is ...... It's a memory enchantment, it's me...... I left it for you, wait...... Wait until you get out of here, and then ...... Turn it on again. Purple Kite said intermittently, her voice so weak that it seemed to be about to die at any moment.

"Kite ......" Nangong Jing held the purple kite's hand tightly, and her heart cramped like a knife.

"Nangong Jing, I'...... I'm dying, and before I die, I ...... I want to do one more thing for you......" Purple Kite grabbed Nangong Jing's wrist and said with all the strength of his body.

"What...... What's up? Nangong Jing asked in a choked voice.

"I want to ...... I want to leave all my cultivation to you, with ...... With my cultivation, Nangong Yueze ...... I can't threaten you. Speaking of this, the purple kite almost began to have difficulty breathing, "Nangong Jing, you...... You're going to live well......"

Nangong Jing wanted to refuse, but before he could speak, Purple Kite had already endured the last strength and poured all his cultivation into Nangong Jing's body.

In an instant, a powerful spiritual power fluctuation erupted in Nangong Jing's body, and the whole person was instantly enveloped by a purple light.

"South...... Nangong Jing...... Bye...... You must ...... You must remember my ......" Seeing Nangong Jing's cultivation rise sharply, the purple kite smiled weakly, and then the whole person fell backwards.

"Kite!!" Nangong Jing hurriedly shouted.

It's a pity that the purple kite never responded to him.

He tried to probe the purple kite's snort with his hand, but he only felt cold and lifeless.

"Kite you get up quickly...... Don't you sleep......" Nangong Jing suddenly burst into tears, he held the face of the purple kite in both hands, and kept kissing her cold cheek back and forth, "I'm sorry, it's useless to blame me, you have done so much for me, but I can't protect you!! ”

He kissed her lips, her tongue, her eyebrows, her ears...... But it still couldn't get the slightest reaction from her.

"Kites...... Kite ......" Nangong Jing whispered her name, her heart aching.

Soon, the purple kite's body turned into countless purple points of light and disappeared over the forest.

……

At the same time, the Nebula Empire Imperial City.

Nangong Yueze quickly rushed to the outside of the dungeon, which was already a mess, hundreds of Imperial City soldiers fell to the ground horizontally, their faces were black, and they were foaming at the mouth, obviously they were all poisoned and died.

"Your Majesty, when the last general arrived with people, these soldiers had already been killed, and Nangong Jing didn't know where to go." A general in armor next to him came to Nangong Yueze and knelt down in front of him and said.

Nangong Yueze glanced at the corpse on the ground, his face immediately became extremely solemn, and after a pause, he turned his head to the general beside him and ordered, "Pass the order to go down, search for Nangong Jing's whereabouts throughout the territory, and those who dare to hide the felons will be guilty of one more degree!" ”

"Yes, the last will obey!!" The general clenched his fists in response.

After he left, Nangong Yueze did not linger, but walked straight towards the dungeon.

In the dungeon, Nangong Yueze came to the door of the cell where Nangong Jing was imprisoned before, the lock of the cell was cut, and the tables and chairs inside were in a mess.

Other than that, there were no clues.

It didn't take long for the jailer to hurry over with a few jailers.

"Your Majesty, you, why did you come here in person?" The prison officer said tremblingly.

Nangong Yueze ignored him and continued to scan the surroundings of the cell, and after a moment, his gaze fell on the two cells diagonally opposite.

Seeing this, the prison officer immediately followed his line of sight, bowed down and explained: "Your Majesty, the two cells opposite are Nangong Jing's personal guard Gan Tai and Nangong Jing's concubine Ye Linglong. ”

Nangong Yueze retracted his gaze, turned his eyes to look at the prison officer, and said lightly, "Bring them over." ”

"Yes......" said the warden cautiously.

Not long after, Gan Tai and Ye Linglong were brought over by the prison officer, and when they saw Nangong Yueze, the two of them knelt on the ground and said respectfully: "Meet Your Majesty." ”

"Your cell is the closest to Nangong Jing, did you see anything just now?" Nangong Yueze narrowed his eyes as black as ink, looked at the two indifferently and asked.

Hearing this, Gan Tai and Ye Linglong glanced at each other, one nodded, and the other shook his head.

"Say it." Nangong Yueze glanced at Gantai, who nodded.

Gan Tai took a step forward, lowered his head, and whispered: "Back to Your Majesty's words, just now, a woman in a purple dress suddenly appeared in the cell of the Seventh Highness, and the lowly did not see her appearance clearly, the lowly only knew that her skills were good, and she rescued the Seventh Highness in three or two clicks, as for what happened outside the cell, the lowly official did not know." ”

"Gantai, you traitor, how did you say everything!!" Ye Linglong glared at Gan Tai angrily and scolded, "Your Highness treats you so well on weekdays!" You actually betrayed him!! ”

"Do you think that if I don't say it, Your Majesty won't be able to find out?" Gan Tai turned his head and retorted, "His Royal Highness the Seventh is strong and domineering on weekdays, and he never treats us subordinates as human beings, isn't Brother Li Yangming a precedent?" He was loyal all his life to the saddle for His Royal Highness, but what happened in the end!! He broke his arm for the sake of the Seventh Highness, and as a result, the Seventh Highness didn't even have a word of comfort! ”
