Chapter 560: Déjà vu

The Demon Eradication Battlefield is a name unilaterally given by human beings. At first, the purpose of drawing out the battlefield was indeed to eliminate the demon clan, so the demon eradication battlefield was basically in a place where the demon clan was concentrated. Many demon clans were forced to join the battle, because the demon spirit orb is a treasure, many demon clans have died because of inexplicable racial hatred and greed for profit, so the demon clan called the battlefield "Heroic Soul Battlefield".

However, as the boundaries between the Terran and Demon Clans have become more and more stable, most of the demon eradication battlefields have disappeared. The few remaining battlefields have lost their original significance. The situation in the battlefield is no longer between humans and demons, but has become a chaotic pattern in which everyone is the enemy. There is no law, force is supreme. In this way, many people regard the current demon extermination battlefield as a place to test the results of cultivation and hone their martial arts.

When Ye Linglong heard Linghu Rui say that Taigong wanted her and Hua Qingyu to go to the Heroic Soul Battlefield to hone their skills, she was puzzled: "However, Jiang Taigong clearly asked me to take He Tianyao and Hua Qingyu to Hun Tian Prison......

"Taigong knows that He Tianyao has gone to the Heroic Soul Battlefield, if you want to find him, you will definitely have to go too. Since you have gone, you will realize the Tao by the way. Anyway, Taigong didn't limit the time you could take the two of you to the Heavenly Prison. Ling Hurui is right.

"Okay. It turns out that when you say 'the right place to go', you mean to get rid of demons...... Ah, no, the Heroic Soul Battlefield!"

"Exactly. ”

"Speaking of which, where is Miss Ruan?" Ye Linglong almost forgot about her.

Ling Hurui smiled: "It's okay, lie outside, sleep soundly." ”

"Then how can I meet Miss Qingyu now?"

"Hua Qingyu's matter can be asked to meet both sides, and I believe that the people of Hua Junmai will not give them face. It's up to me. Liu Guiqiong patted her chest.

"Your demon identity...... It won't be discovered, right?" Ye Linglong was a little apprehensive.

Liu Guiqiong said: "Don't worry. Taigong had already arranged everything. Except for the two of you, no one can know that I'm a demon. ”

......

As the steward of the White Tiger Cave, Liu Guiqiong's "Li Hongxiang" has a high status in Qingming City. She reported to the top, and the news quickly reached the "Qingming Shuangjie". Because Xiao Tianhe, He Tianyao, and Hua Qingyu all had a close relationship with the "Ten Perfection Masters" imagined by the "Qingming Shuangjie", when they heard that Ye Linglong was a friend of the three of them, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately invited Ye Linglong to go to the Dongtian Cave that afternoon to see him.

It was inconvenient for Hurui and Ruan Jingsha to accompany each other, so Ye Linglong went alone. When she arrived at the door of the main hall, Ye Linglong was stopped by the person guarding the door. "I'm sorry, but the two adults are meeting guests, and I would like to ask the girl to stay for a while. The guard said respectfully.

"It's okay, I'm early. Ye Linglong found a step to sit down and looked at the several martial arts platforms on the floors below. There were some immortal cultivators on the stage who were sparring, and there were some audience members in the audience. As the duel on the stage gradually became exciting, the audience cheered a few times from time to time. "Quiet days......" Ye Linglong couldn't help but think of her former life. Yutian Chengye Mansion is famous far and wide, and many of the children in the mansion are also good at cultivating demons. Since she was a child, she likes to watch her brothers and sisters fly up and down in the courtyard of the house, you come and go. With the fall of the family and the pursuit of the Red Emperor, the children of the Ye family have died repeatedly, and the living are scattered in the rivers and lakes, and I don't know if there will be a day of reunion in this life. Recalling the outlaw career of hiding everywhere over the years, Ye Linglong was full of emotion. She has been pampered after losing her backer, everything can only rely on herself, from lonely and helpless, alone to now I have met a few close friends with two ribs, she is very content, but also grateful to God, arranged for her a tempering will, self-growth destiny.

It's just that she misses Ye Yuansheng very much, and sometimes she even thinks that even if her grandfather is really gone, it would be good for her to die and see the corpse. "Grandpa, grandpa, where the hell are you? Are you still alive?" Unconsciously, tears moistened her eyes and trickled down the corners of her eyes.

"Is the girl sad?" said the guard approached from afar. A girl like a flower and jade cried so much that no one could bear to see it.

"It doesn't matter. Ye Linglong felt out of shape and quickly wiped away her tears.

The guard continued, "If the girl is really in trouble, just tell the two adults for a while." Who doesn't know that our 'Qingming Shuangjie' is righteous and thin, and they will definitely make decisions for you. ”

"Well, thank you. Ye Linglong returned a gentle smile to the kind guard.

Then the doors of the temple opened. Three figures walked out of the temple. The two on the left and on the right are the rulers of He Tong's realm - Guo Shimian and Yi Qianjue. The two of them were very respectful to the guest among them, smiled at each other, and said goodbye. The one who can make the two Nine Palace-level masters treat them so respectfully must be a distinguished guest with a very high status.

Ye Linglong secretly glanced at the man curiously: he was more than nine feet tall, with a fat head and big ears, broad shoulders and a round waist, a smooth top of his head, but long eyebrows and beard. The leopard's head is ringed with eyes, the nostrils are facing the sky, and the fierce appearance on his face does not seem to be good. The posture of his walk is also swaggering and arrogant, with a conceit of being the only one in heaven and on earth.

"This kind of guy also deserves the respect of the two masters?" Ye Linglong shook her head secretly.

The man also noticed Ye Linglong beside the stairs, and the moment the eyes of the two met, Ye Linglong clearly felt that the corner of the person's mouth seemed to show an evil smile.

"What a rude guy......" Ye Linglong looked at his back from afar, for some reason, she had a faint sense of déjà vu towards that person. "Maybe the womanizers have seen too much?" she thought to herself.

"Miss Ye, please come in. "Qingming Shuangjie" greeted.

Ye Linglong hurriedly saluted the two masters, and the three of them entered the main hall together.

Things went very smoothly, and Guo Shimian promised to go to Huajun Cave the next day to find the master. During the conversation, the two masters asked about Xiao Tianhe's situation. When they heard that he was seriously injured during the extermination of the Sea Jiao Gang, the two lost no time in making an invitation. "It is naturally better to rely on one side of the force than to fight alone. ”

Guo Shimian persuaded Ye Linglong to join Xiao Tianhe in Qingming City. Of course, Ye Linglong knew that their purpose was actually to win over the "ten-level master" who had never shown up.

Ye Linglong neither agreed nor refused to this invitation, only said that Xiao Tianhe was healing at the master's place, and everything would be decided after he was healed. The two masters didn't say much. In their minds, anyway, He Tianyao and Hua Qingyu can be regarded as joining the Ascendant forces, and with them involved, it is only a matter of time before Xiao Tianhe defects over.

......

After leaving the main hall, Ye Linglong saw that it was still early and decided to take a stroll around. At this time, she had already recognized the Lord with the blood of the prison guards, and she knew very well the location of the two demon clans. "Li Hongxiang" had returned to the three-story building in the White Tiger Cave, while Ling Hurui was still in the wooden house in the Little Xuanwu Cave.

From the Qinglong Cave to the Vermilion Bird Cave, and then back to the Dongtian Cave, it was already evening time. "Let's go to the Xuanwu Cave again, and go back to the Little Xuanwu Cave from there. Ye Linglong planned so.

This time through the Dongtian Grotto, Ye Linglong walked through the highest corridor. On this corridor that spans north and south, you can overlook the entire cave. When passing by several martial arts platforms, those immortal cultivators were still competing, and their enthusiasm did not diminish in the slightest. Recalling that the courtyard of Ye Mansion was also lively all night, Ye Linglong had a smile on her face.

Suddenly, the door to the council hall opened, and three figures stepped out. Ye Linglong said in surprise, the situation this time was exactly the same as the afternoon time, "Qingming Shuangjie" once again sent the fierce bald guest away. "Why did that guy come again?" Ye Linglong couldn't help but be curious. Counting the time, the two visits of the bald dignitaries are only two hours apart.

Witnessing the bald guest heading in the direction of the Xuanwu Cave, Ye Linglong planned to secretly follow to find out. She immediately walked up the stairs and spiral stairs to the first floor of the Great Hall, following the leisurely back in the distance.

After entering the Xuanwu Cave, the bald guest turned several corners in a row and walked into a relatively remote hut in the southeast corner. Ye Linglong secretly wrote down the location, and planned to ask Liu Guiqiong after going back. She always felt as if she had seen this bald head somewhere. However, such a characteristic face should be unforgettable, but she just can't remember it.

The bald guest never came out of the hut again, but there was no light in the room. Just as Ye Linglong was about to leave, a strange wind suddenly blew near the hut, blowing out all the lights around it, and a large area fell into darkness. The Xuanwu Cave is a huge mine, and few people come to this corner on weekdays, and there is silence all around.

"It's weird that there's wind in the cave. Why is it that only the lights around this hut have been blown out?" Ye Linglong didn't want to leave again, and quietly squatted at a corner of the corridor, watching the movement from a distance through the fence.

I waited for a long time, but nothing happened. Maybe it was the rush for days that made Ye Linglong too tired, and she only felt drowsy.

In the confusion, there was a faint sound of talking in the distance below. Ye Linglong perked up, opened her eyes and looked in the direction where the voice came from. It was a corridor connected from another small cave, and two figures appeared on the path. It's a pity that the light is too dim, and Ye Linglong can't see the faces of the two clearly, and can only roughly see the outline. Judging by the voices spoken, they were two men, each carrying a bag of marijuana on their shoulders. The two of them spoke very softly, and Ye Linglong couldn't really hear it when she listened carefully.

The two men came to the door of the hut, placed the sack lightly in the doorway, and said two more words. This time, Ye Linglong finally heard clearly.

One of them said, "Remember, don't tell anyone about today!"

"Yes!" the other man replied.

Then, one of them knocked lightly on the door three times, and then walked down the steps, apparently to return the same way as his companion.

The door opened suddenly, and a dark shadow rushed out, heading straight for the two men. Ye Linglong could see clearly that it was the bald guest! Before the two men could react to what was going on, they were dragged back to the small building by him with their necks covered their mouths.

There was a "whining" sound and the clashing of tables and chairs in the room that had never been closed, as if the two men were struggling violently. Just when Ye Linglong was hesitating whether to show up to save her, a blood stain splashed on the window, and the sound of struggle disappeared.

"It's dead!" Ye Linglong felt creepy in her heart, why did the bald guest kill someone?

Suddenly, the bald guest came out of the room, dragged the two sacks by the door back into the room, and closed the door.

"Those two people have already died, don't startle the ......snake at this time," Ye Linglong said in her heart. So, she bent her waist and quietly left the Xuanwu Cave along the way she came.

......

When Ye Linglong returned to the wooden house in the Little Xuanwu Grotto, "Li Hongxiang", Ling Hurui and Ruan Jingsha were all there.

"Where have you been?" I can't find you everywhere!" Before Ye Linglong could speak, "Li Hongxiang" asked, "'Qingming Shuangjie' invited you to the banquet!"

"I've just met them in the afternoon!"

"Presumably it's for you, right? Without further ado, I'll hurry up and accompany you to the caves, it's still too late. "Li Hongxiang" pushed Ye Linglong out of the cabin.

"It's okay, you can ask about the identity of the bald guest by the way. If the timing is right, you can also inform the two masters about tonight. Ye Linglong thought to herself.

With a heart, Ye Linglong followed "Li Hongxiang" in the White Tiger Cave to "walk through the streets and alleys" and came to the tunnel connecting the White Tiger Cave and the Dongtian Cave. Suddenly, a figure flashed on the roof on the side, stretched out his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow at Ye Linglong!

Ye Linglong couldn't react, and the cold arrow hit her left shoulder, but she was wearing a dragon scale cloak, and the arrow did not pierce in, but bounced to the ground. The man shot an arrow and immediately retracted and fled. "Li Hongxiang" was furious, and seeing that Ye Linglong was fine, she immediately jumped on the roof with her feet and chased after her, but Ye Linglong didn't stop shouting.

Ye Linglong actually realized the moment she was hit by the arrow, the arrow only had the body of the arrow, no arrow, to put it bluntly, it was just a wooden stick. Oddly enough, she picked up the arrow and looked closely, and the arrow was wrapped in a piece of gauze. Untied the gauze, only four words and two punctuation marks were written on the inside: "Don't go, go quickly!"

Whatever the reason, Ye Linglong can be sure that the person who reported the letter is not a bad person. If "Li Hongxiang" hurts him, it won't be good. Ye Linglong hurriedly jumped on the roof and chased after "Li Hongxiang".

Fortunately, before chasing far, Ye Linglong saw "Li Hongxiang" walking from the corridor with a person. The man's mask had been ripped off, and it turned out to be a woman. On closer inspection, it is still a familiar face. "Miss Su!" Ye Linglong happily jumped from the roof to the two of them.

This person is the last member of the long-awaited "Sanhua Gathering" team: "Old Fritters" - Su Ziyi.

"What, you two know each other?" Li Hongxiang let go of her hand.

"Miss Su, it's been a long time!" Ye Linglong happily took Su Ziyi's hand.

Su Ziyi's face was full of anxiety: "Miss Ye, don't go to the banquet, leave Qingming City quickly! No, leave He Tongjie! Go as far as possible!"

"Why is that?" Li Hongxiang said in surprise.

"It's two adults...... Hey, don't ask, run away! It's too late!" Su Ziyi pushed Ye Linglong.

"Hugh go!" a woman jumped down the corridor above.

"I'll stop her!" Su Ziyi was so anxious that tears were about to flow out, "Escort Miss Ye away!"

"Since you have chosen to betray, don't blame the teacher for being ruthless!" The woman had a gloomy face and drew her sword to attack Su Ziyi.

"Let's go!" "Li Hongxiang" pulled Ye Linglong and ran in the direction of the small Xuanwu Cave, and before he ran far, he heard Su Ziyi screaming in the rear. Ye Linglong turned around in shock, only to see that Su Ziyi had fallen in a pool of blood. "Miss Su......" Ye Linglong burst into tears, the two had not seen each other for so many years since they parted from Feiyun City, and now they have just reunited, but they are forever separated by yin and yang.

After Su Ziyi's death, her master just glanced at the backs of "Li Hongxiang" and Ye Linglong, and didn't seem to have the intention of chasing.

As soon as he entered the wooden house of the small Xuanwu Cave, Ye Linglong complained loudly: "Why is Qingming City so chaotic, if you want to kill people, you can kill people?"

"I knew that woman just now, she was the head of the Qinglong Cave, and her status was higher than mine. What's more, she killed her own apprentice, and the reason was made clear, it was because of the betrayal of her apprentice. No one dares to say anything about cleaning up portals. "Li Hongxiang" said.

Ling Hurui and Ruan Jingsha looked at each other. Ling Hurui asked, "What's going on?" Miss Ye, aren't you going to the banquet? What's the matter with killing?"

Ye Linglong said a few words briefly with tears in her eyes.

"Listening to what Miss Su meant, it seems that the 'Qingming Shuangjie' is going to be unfavorable to Miss Ye?" Ruan Jingsha guessed.

Ling Hurui paced around the room and said to himself, "Impossible...... They obviously know that there is a mysterious master behind Miss Ye, and they dare to go against her?"

When Miss Qingyu and He Tianyao came to Qingming City, the two masters were quite warm and friendly. "Li Hongxiang" couldn't figure it out.

"Anyway, I believe in Miss Su. Ye Linglong burst into tears, "I can't let her sacrifice in vain, I'll leave Qingming City now!"

Li Hongxiang sighed: "That's it, after such a fuss, I'm afraid I won't be able to stay in Qingming City." Everyone, evacuate from the tunnels to the west!"

"That's it. You are in front, and I am behind. Linghu Rui said.

Due to the quick decision of several people, the process of leaving the city was not hindered in any way. Soon, the four of them returned to the ground and flew away from the Qingming City area in the southeast.

"It's a pity that I didn't have time to bring Miss Qingyu out. Linghu Rui said.

"Li Hongxiang" has changed back to Liu Guiqiong at this time, and she analyzed: "Miss Qingyu shouldn't matter. The 'Qingming Shuangjie' needs to use the poison and medicinal techniques of the Hua Jun line, how can it be unfavorable to his disciples? I heard that the Hua Jun pulse is famous for protecting their shortcomings, and no one in the Qingming City dares to provoke them. After a pause, she also sighed, "It's a pity for me! I took the trouble to betray a little hue to get into the position of the head of the White Tiger Cave." Who knew that this time there would be extraneous branches, and the task that your princess ordered me to do so would not be completed...... Alas, how can I explain it to them!"

"You can tell me now, right?, what is the task that the princess has assigned you?" asked Ling Hurui curiously.
