The reunion with Alex was an unexpected joy for Qin Hao.

Although he is not a resident of the main plane, he has left his footprints here. However, a thousand years is too long for humanity, long enough to turn everything beyond recognition.

In Cassania City, in Prior, almost all of them, except for Alex in front of them, have died. When they meet again, it is no longer clear how many generations of descendants of the other person are the same surname.

The vicissitudes of life, the changing world, and in the face of the power of time, individual mortals appear extremely fragile.

The two spent the night drinking at the top of the clock tower, the tallest building in Prior, a world where people's attachment and reverence for time is so much more than a qiē that most of the tallest buildings in cities are not royal palaces or churches, but such huge bell towers.

Erin obediently accompanied Qin Hao's side, but she didn't say a word all night, just quietly accompanied Qin Hao, and from time to time handed new wine bottles to the two men who were chatting happily, just like the most perfect and virtuous wife.

From Alex's mouth, Qin Hao knew that the Hillman Empire, where they had stayed at the beginning, had now become the strongest empire on the southeastern border. But today's Hillman royal family has long had little to do with Alex.

After Alex's father died, the throne was inherited by Alex's younger brother. Because there was a powerful Alex behind the scenes to intimidate everyone, even if the nobles had bad intentions, they did not dare to resist, and could only obediently assist the young emperor.

And Alex's younger brother did not live up to this responsibility, and the Hillman Empire not only became stronger under his hard work. It has even destroyed several surrounding countries in a row, the land area has increased several times, and the national strength has become extremely strong, becoming a famous power on the mainland.

But the only thing that makes it sigh. Alex's younger brother did not leave any children. In his later years, he adopted an orphan he had picked up on the battlefield, and he later passed it on to the entire Hehrman Empire.

It can be said that in addition to the name of the current Hillman Empire, the entire royal family has nothing to do with Alex.

"On the square in front of the palace, there are statues of you and me. Each statue is more than ten meters high, standing in front of the palace gate on the left and right, and has become a well-known scenery in the city of Cassania. ”

Alex's words made Qin Hao a little stunned.

"What kind of nonsense? I can understand your statue, but why do you even have my statue? I didn't make any great contribution to your Hillman Empire, so why did you erect my statue?"

"Because everybody knows. You have a close relationship with the Black Dragon Clan, and you are a friend of the Black Dragon Princess," Alex said calmly, "My younger brother was frantically expanding his territory at that time, and he was under a lot of pressure, so in order to deter the surrounding area, he naturally wanted to use everything that he could use, so you became the strongest weapon he used to deter the enemy." ”

"Then why don't I use Lilia?" Qin Hao asked with some confusion, "Lilia should already be a saint rank now, right?" With the strength of the Holy Order, can't such an identity and status become the biggest backer of the Hillman Empire?"

Alex was silent for a moment.

He tilted his head and poured a sip of the spirit, his otherwise cold gaze a little dark. It's been known for so long. For the first time, Qin Hao saw a sentimental sentiment in his eyes.

Lilia's words...... Maybe he has died. ”

Qin Hao's body froze.

The wine bottle in his hand slipped silently and fell into the void below. It took a long time for a crisp sound of a bottle exploding from the ground.

Smack-

Qin Hao grabbed Alex's hand, his voice was full of disbelief, "How is it possible?!You saw her die with your own eyes?"

"Didn't see it with my own eyes. But as far as I know, in the nineteenth year after you left, her strength advanced to the ninth order, and after she made up her mind to break through the Holy Domain, she completely disappeared on the mainland. No one has seen her since, and the news about her can only be left blank, like ......"

After a pause, Alex uttered the cruelest conjecture, "...... It's like she's completely evaporated from the world. ”

Breaking through the Sacred Realm of the Ninth Order is not a smooth road, and many times it will even lead to tragedies that people do not want to see for various reasons, and it can even be said to be extremely dangerous. The unfortunate death due to the failure to break through the Holy Rank is never a new thing.

As far as the world is concerned, the deceased will naturally not leave any footprints, and nature is no different from the evaporation of the world.

Qin Hao's body stiffened and retracted his hand, and took the bottle of wine handed over by Erin, his hand trembling, "Why...... ...... way"

At the same time, his voice, his body, his facial muscles trembled. That kind of sudden bad news is unacceptable, even the demon god can't avoid it, he is just trying to control himself, otherwise the love will be out of control and lead the magic power to run wild.

A white hand gently held Qin Hao's hand.

Erin, who had been sitting on the side, comforted Qin Hao wordlessly and soothed the excitement of the demon god.

Qin Hao turned around and saw Erin's somewhat worried gaze. He took a deep breath, and then he barely calmed down, "I'm going to see her teacher at the Sacred Heart Demon Martial Academy...... Her teacher should still be alive, right?"

"Yes, it's still alive," Alex silently raised his head and poured another sip of wine, and said slowly, "At least as far as I know, the Sacred Heart Demon Martial Academy has not changed its dean for more than a thousand years. ”

"Then I'll visit her tomorrow......" Qin Hao glanced back at Alex, "Do you want to go with you too?"

"No," Alex said calmly, shaking his head, "Lilia may not like to see me. ”

Alex's words reminded Qin Hao of Alex's attitude towards Lilia when he was in Cassania City, and he couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Actually, for so many years, there is a question I have always wanted to ask, why did you always like to bully Lilia in the first place?" Qin Hao asked, "You are not the kind of person who takes pleasure in bullying the weak, but you always make trouble for Lilia? You don't think you'll ignore her, will you?"

"Naturally, I have never disliked Lilia," Alex took a sip of wine and was silent for a long time before continuing, "but Lilia's royal status is not recognized by the royal family. Among those powerful nobles, an orphan without a father and mother, do you think she will be treated well?"

He looked up and poured another sip of wine, and I don't know what came to mind, Alex's gaze. A little bleak, "Since the royal family does not recognize Lilia's identity, then I can only sue everyone, even if I dislike and despise Lilia, I still think that she is a member of the royal family and has royal blood, so I hate her." ”

"Even if this blood is not pure, she is a member of the royal family after all. I'm the crown prince, and I can bully her with impunity. This does not mean that other ordinary nobles are also qualified to bully a member of the royal family. ”

Qin Hao was a little silent, raised the wine bottle and touched Alex, "Your guy's concern is really awkward......

"It's better than when you don't know how to cherish it. Good guy who regrets it after losing it," Glancing at Erin beside Qin Hao, Alex said slowly, "You have missed a Lilia." Don't even lose what you have around you now. ”

With Qin Hao and Alex's understanding of Lilia, they naturally knew that the little girl's talent had no problem breaking through the Sacred Domain at all. But since the business trip pool, it is obvious. This has a lot to do with external factors.

Thinking that Lilia was about to break through the Sanctuary in such a hurry, it was probably related to a certain guy who had never returned in the Demon Realm. After all, only the Sanctuary has the ability to travel through the world without restrictions.

This may be clear to both Qin Hao and Alex, but the two tacitly chose not to mention it. At this time, in Alex's warning, Qin Hao subconsciously glanced back at Erin, and Erin showed a smile at him, very gentle and obedient.

Qin Hao was silent.

"What's next for you?"

The two men sitting side by side looked at the stars in the night sky at the same time, and Qin Hao asked.

"Travel, hone your sword," Alex said slowly, "My sword, still confused, I don't know what the real sword is." I need to travel to more worlds, visit more kendo masters, and understand the true meaning of swords. ”

After a pause, Alex threw away the bottle in his hand and stood up, "And before that, I need to destroy the ants who are trying to provoke. ”

The sword qi rushed into the sky.

At the same time, in the night sky ahead, a powerful Sanctuary pressed in.

"Outsider, how dare you insult the majesty of the Egwene family? Do you think that your strength is so strong that you can be unscrupulous? Sue you, Priel is not the place to let you go wild! Obediently kneel and beg for mercy, I can still consider sparing your life." ”

The loud shouts resounded throughout the Prior, attracting the attention of countless people.

In the next second, the icy sword qi rushed into the sky, and the man on the clock tower suddenly shone in the sky, countless sword rays shot out, and the power of the god and demon level destroyed the sky. In just an instant, the flying Sanctuary was slain in an instant.

At the same time, the sword qi swept down, and a huge aristocratic mansion below the powerhouse of the Holy Domain turned into ashes in an instant. The terrifying power instantly shocked the entire city, leaving countless onlookers stunned and trembling.

"If you have time, let's go to the Golden Flower Sea...... There are people waiting for you there. ”

The man who traveled through the space only left such a sentence in Qin Hao's ear, and then disappeared from everyone's sight, leaving only a city that was surprisingly boiling under the power of gods and demons.

On the clock tower, looking at the city that was trembling and noisy due to the power of gods and demons, and the lights that lit up one after another in the night, Qin Hao slowly sat back down.

He took the bottle that Erin handed him, his expression silent and silent. In the city that woke up under the night sky, how those human beings trembled and trembled because of the power of the demon god, how noisy and boiling, it had nothing to do with him, and his ears were just constantly echoing the warning left by Alex......

"Don't you regret it until you lose it?" Silently chewing on this sentence, Qin Hao turned around, "Erin, will you leave me?"

Erin smiled softly, opened her arms and hugged Qin Hao from behind, gently rubbed Qin Hao's broad back with her face, and muttered, "As long as the master doesn't drive me away, Erin will always be the master." ”

"Never leaving?"

"Well, never leaving. ”

"Like me?"

"Like. ”

"Then let's get married. ”

Erin was stunned, let go of Qin Hao, and looked at Qin Hao's face with some astonishment, "Lord...... Master?"

Qin Hao held her hand, his gaze was gloomy and low, "Let's get married." ”

Erin looked at Qin Hao's face in a daze, and then smiled, "Okay." (To be continued......)
