When the first rays of morning light fell on the walls of the Acropolis, most of the people in the Acropolis were resting.

Yesterday was definitely an extremely horrific experience for them, but most of them also had a little pride in their hearts in addition to grief and indignation.

Under such a terrible disadvantage, they can still hold the Acropolis for a whole day, resist their two waves of attacks, and finally force them to retreat.

At this point, cultivators and ordinary soldiers alike, even if they were extremely tired physically and mentally, they were all smiling at the rising sun, intentionally or unintentionally.

They have won this battle for the time being, and they have played the prestige that the human world should have, how can they not be happy?

Wei Shengjing sat on the tower of the Acropolis, looking out of the city when the morning sun rose.

In the battle to defend the Acropolis yesterday night, he dragged his extremely tired body and barely escaped from the enemy formation, and the Martial Sect cultivators who rushed down with him were only about twenty people at this time.

He knew very well how far the defense capability of the Acropolis had been consumed now, in addition to the heavy losses of the cultivators of the Martial Sect, the two thousand soldiers used to form the Five Elements Bagua Array had lost nearly half of them at this time, and those who survived had almost no strength to lift their swords again; most of the cultivators of the Fa Sect, including the master of the Earth Dragon Gate, had also consumed too much and had to retreat to the rear to temporarily recuperate; the ballistas on the head of the city had been emptied as early as yesterday during the day, and at night they had exhausted all the arrows stored in the Acropolis.

On the other hand, in the place of the Ten Thousand Demon Alliance, although the demon clan corpses had been piled up several mountains in front of the acropolis after two attacks, according to his estimates, they had eliminated at least 20,000 demon clan soldiers, but the problem was that they still had an army of 30,000, and the quality and number of cultivators among them still had to overwhelm them.

Yesterday, Ming Dao arrived in time and thwarted the demon army with the power of the ink sword, and reluctantly pulled the Acropolis back from the brink of loss, but it was only to hang the life of the Acropolis.

That's why he watched the rising sun here, instead of resting and recuperating in the city lord's mansion.

Also looking at the rising sun with him, there is also Ming Dao, this whole night, he has not come down from the city tower.

When Wei Shengjing looked at him, he was also looking at Wei Shengjing, both of them had their lips slightly open, and after noticing each other's movements, they both swallowed their words back.

After a long time, Ming Daofang spoke first: "Sheng...... How's my sister?"

"The doctor of the City Lord's Mansion has seen it, but he just needs to rest, and there is no big problem. Wei Shengjing looked into the distance and said, "Over the years, thank you for taking care of Sheng'er." ”

Ming Dao didn't expect that the first thing Wei Shengjing said to him was this kind of short words in the parents, and he was already entangled in the name, and he suddenly showed a smile of embarrassment, and said, "This is what I should do." ”

He thought for a moment and smiled, "Although it's a little out of place, I still want to ask, how do you see it?"

The topic of women has always aroused the interest of men, especially in border towns such as the Acropolis, those soldiers have talked about Wei Sheng's appearance and temperament in private, but when Wei Sheng first came to the Acropolis, there was a bit of ridicule in these conversations, and when Wei Sheng proved his strength to the entire Acropolis, those jokes became ridicule.

Wei Shengjing's wife and Xu Xian have long passed away, Shang Yunjian met with the sword immortal Shang Qingtian in his early years due to changes, entered the Shoreless Sword Peak, and was ruthless with the Wei family, and almost never stepped into the territory of the Acropolis after that incident, the second son Wei Qingzhu has been familiar with the affairs of the city lord for a long time, in case he has any accidents, the future of the Acropolis will be borne by him, but after all, it is still a little tender, this time such a big scene, he did not let him participate in the war, but let him be in charge of the affairs of the city. Wei Sheng is his most beloved daughter, and he has been a little estranged from him after that incident, he has always felt sorry for her, and now she finally returned to the Acropolis, although only to come to defend against the army of the Ten Thousand Demon Alliance, so he is willing to use everything he has to protect her on the battlefield.

In the end, he still couldn't do it, but there was someone who protected Wei Sheng for him.

For Ming Dao, Wei Shengjing's perception at first glance was very good, not only because he solved the urgent need for the Acropolis, but also because of the free and easy temperament on his body, which was very similar to Shang Yunjian who came with a sword and made a big fuss in the city lord's mansion.

"You look at Sheng'er's eyes, and you can understand it at a glance. Wei Shengjing smiled smugly, as if his mind to see the transparent path was already a very proud thing for him, "I was like this back then, when all my thoughts were on her mother's person, I almost left this Acropolis and wandered the world with her." ”

Wei Shengjing sighed and said gloomily: "But I did something wrong in the end, broke his mother's heart, and made Xiao ...... Yun Jian almost died, if it weren't for Shang Jian Xian...... Alas. ”

Wei Shengjing closed his eyes, his weather-beaten face showed a look of remorse, and after a while, he opened his eyes, stared at Ming Dao and said, "Mr. Ming Qi, if I ask you to take care of Sheng'er for the rest of your life, are you willing?"

Ming Dao nodded without hesitation and said, "Don't worry, city lord, I swore to myself a long time ago that I would always protect her." ”

Although Ming Dao studied under Momei Villa, it was Shang Yunjian who gave him the most influence on his cultivation journey, and when Wei Sheng joined Momei Villa, he took good care of her because of Shang Yunjian's relationship, and accompanied her from the young and shy little sister of Momei Villa to the now famous Mr. Wei Ba.

He has been with her through so many years of ups and downs, and he really wants to go on with her all the time.

When Wei Shengjing heard this answer, he laughed with satisfaction, and threw a bag of wine from his waist to Mingdao: "The wine on the side is stronger, try it?"

Ming Dao took the wine bag and said with a smile: "The city lord invites him, and the juniors will naturally accompany him." ”

After speaking, he uncorked the bottle and took a sip of wine, but after all, he coughed up spicy.

Wei Shengjing was still laughing heartily, I don't know if he saw the embarrassment of Mr. Mingqi of Momei Mountain Villa, or because of something else, he immediately straightened his face and said, "You still call me the city lord?"

Ming Dao had already relieved himself at this time, glanced at the wine bag in his hand with palpitations, and said with a smile: "It's a bit early to call my father-in-law now." ”

Wei Shengjing took out another bag of wine from his waist, raised his head and drank all the spirits in it, and laughed: "You kid is so skillful, what kind of pure good are you pretending to be here?"

At this point, the two men, who were not young, looked at each other and laughed, and the distance between them was much closer.

The two of them drank and laughed at each other at the top of the city, and the laughter echoed in the wind and sand around the Acropolis.

After a while, Wei Shengjing stared at Ming Dao's eyes and said, "Promise me one thing." ”

Ming Dao's face was already drunk at this time, but his pupils were bright, and he said, "Father-in-law, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"After the city is broken, you take Sheng'er out of here, although she was born here, she shouldn't put herself here, you and her road...... It's still a long time. ”

"What about you?"

Wei Shengjing burped loudly and said with a heroic smile: "I am the city lord of this acropolis, I should have lived with this city, I have lived for more than sixty years, and I have already been enough." ”

Ming Dao lowered his head, and after a moment, said, "We will fight with this city to the end." ”

Wei Shengjing changed color when he heard this, and said angrily: "You kid say it again!"

Ming Dao shook his head and said: "I understand her character, she will come here with the idea of co-living and dying with the Acropolis, and in her heart, she has never forgotten the Acropolis and the Wei family." ”

"She made her choice, and I will follow mine. ”

Wei Shengjing stared at his face and said solemnly: "You really don't regret it?"

Ming Dao said with a smile: "In life, you always have to do something shocking. ”

Wei Shengjing sighed, and then laughed and said: "Let's just have a few more drinks, although there is no good scenery here in the Acropolis, this desert smoke is also a good appetizer." ”

Ming Dao lifted the empty wine bag and said with a smile: "It should be so." ”

Their eyes were now outside the Acropolis.

The Ten Thousand Demon Alliance doesn't know when it will attack again, and by that time, everything will be over in the Acropolis.

Until then, the morning sun still rises as usual, and the Acropolis will still hold on to the last moment.
