Chapter 224: Exploring the Phoenix Valley Again
After chatting for a long time, Ning Xiaoxue told Bai Qi that she was going to leave for the Palace of the Dark City.
Although she is the empress of the Dark Country, it seems that there is not much to do, but in fact, there are a lot of things waiting for her to make a decision, and now the entire Tianhe Prefecture belongs to the Dark Country, and the current situation is not stable, there are riots in many places, and there are even remnants of the previous country, inciting the people to revolt and make trouble, so Ning Xiaoxue is still busy.
After listening to Ning Xiaoxue's explanation, Bai Qi nodded in agreement, he understood very well.
Ning Xiaoxue's current identity is not as simple as just a hall master, as the empress of the Dark Country, she naturally has to put state affairs first, but she can't delay the entire Dark Country because of him alone.
Outside the gate of the Thousand Faces Hall branch, after Bai Qi put Ning Xiaoxue in the carriage, he waved his hand at Ning Xiaoxue.
"Stay safe on the road, I'll be looking for you in the Dark City in a few days. ”
Ning Xiaoxue smiled and nodded, and then the attendant lowered the curtain, and Ning Xiaoxue's pretty face disappeared from Bai Qi's sight.
The carriage also set off, heading in the direction of Shangguan's treasure house.
After sending Ning Xiaoxue away, Bai Qi turned around and walked into the door, preparing to go to the main hall of the branch hall.
After Bai Qi woke up, Ning Xiaoxue specially asked people to prepare a table of wine and food, calculating the time, Bai Qi estimated that it had already begun to serve the food, maybe Situ Ling and the four of them were all seated, so they would wait for him.
I was in a coma for three whole days, it was impossible to say that I was not hungry, if it wasn't for Ning Xiaoxue to leave, Bai Qi would have gone to the kitchen to find food by himself.
What Bai Qi didn't expect was that when he came to the door of the main hall, he happened to see a woman coming out of the main hall.
The woman looked good, with willow eyebrows and almond eyes, dressed in the black gold-rimmed silk dress of the dark temple, and her silky black hair was tied together by a black ribbon, which was placed behind her casually.
After seeing Bai Qi, the woman's expression was stunned at first, and then a look of joy appeared on her fair face.
"Lin Xi?"
Looking at the woman's vaguely familiar face, Bai Qi called tentatively.
"It's me. ”
The woman smiled slightly.
"Is that really you?"
After confirming the woman's identity, Bai Qi also showed a smile on his face, as if he had thought of something, Bai Qi put away his smile and asked, "Why are you here? You are still wearing the clothes of the Dark Temple? I remember that you are not from the Red Gate?"
"Have you forgotten that when I was taken away by the soldiers of Darkmoon City, I made a bet with Bai Jushi?" Lin Xi reminded.
Bet?
Bai Qi frowned and recalled carefully.
Three years ago, before Lin Xi was taken away by the soldiers, she begged Bai Qi to save her, it seemed that she was begging him, but she was actually begging Bai Yu, after all, Bai Qi was nothing at that time, and it was useless to beg him.
At that time, Bai Yu did not directly agree to save Lin Xi, but made a bet with Lin Xi.
And the content of the bet is that after Lin Xi is locked up by the city guards of Dark Moon City, within a year, if the Red Gate gets the news to rescue her, Lin Xi will give her whatever Bai Yu wants.
Conversely, if the Red Gate doesn't come to her rescue, then she's going to join the Dark Temple.
"It looks like you lost the bet. Bai Qi said with a smile.
Lin Xi nodded undeniably and said, "Yes, but it's okay, at least let me see the true face of the Red Gate, don't talk about this, hurry up and go in, Bai Jushi and they are still waiting for you." ”
As he spoke, Lin Xi made a gesture of please.
After Bai Qi walked into the main hall, he saw Bai Yu and the others who had finished sitting at a glance, Bai Yu was sitting in the main seat, and there was a vacant seat on her left and right.
Bai Qi didn't think much about it, walked to the vacant seat on Bai Yu's right, and was about to sit down, but was pulled by Lin Xi.
Bai Qi turned his head and looked at Lin Xi puzzled.
Lin Xi pointed to Bai Yu's left-hand position, and said with a smile, "Where is your position." ”
"Why are you so elaborate? It's not a formal occasion. ”
Bai Qi broke free from Lin Xi's hand and sat down indifferently.
"This is specially arranged by His Majesty, don't make it difficult for me, if Your Majesty knows, she will definitely be angry. Lin Xi pleaded.
"Since she arranged it, shouldn't your position be Bai Yu's position?What does it mean to sit here?" Bai Qi looked at Lin Xi curiously.
"Don't be sarcastic about me......" Lin Xi glanced at Bai Yu in a panic, for fear that Bai Yu would be angry.
Let her sit in Bai Yu's position? Where does she dare! Ning Xiaoxue came in person.
Looking at Lin Xi's anxious appearance, Bai Qi sighed, and finally got up and sat on Bai Yu's left.
To be honest, Bai Qi has always hated this.
If it's a formal occasion, it's just that, you can sit how you want, Bai Qi has absolutely no words, but this is not a formal occasion, you have to do it like this, isn't this a destruction of the harmonious eating atmosphere?
Originally, Bai Yu's identity was a little scary, Bai Qi didn't care about it, but the four of Situ Ling wouldn't think like this, they just had a meal with Ning Xiaoxue last time, and the four of them were nervous, and now they were eating at the same table with Bai Yu, and then they came to sit on a formal occasion, can the four of them still eat?
Bai Qi glanced at the four Situ Ling.
As a result, just as he thought, the four Situ Ling were now sitting unusually upright, with an embarrassed and reluctant smile on their faces, looking motionless ahead.
Of course, they didn't look directly at Bai Yu, but bypassed Bai Yu and looked at Bai Yu's rear.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Lin Xi took the wine glass and toasted Bai Yu, expressing his gratitude to Bai Yu, if Bai Yu hadn't deliberately bet with her, she might still be in the cell of Dark Moon City now.
Because at today's table, it was Ning Xiaoxue who asked Lin Xi to accompany Bai Qi and others, instead of letting Lin Xi accompany Bai Qi and others instead of Ning Xiaoxue, so Lin Xi did not pay tribute to Bai Yu for Ning Xiaoxue.
As a subordinate, it is natural to understand the meaning of the boss, and Lin Xi still does this very well.
After saluting the white rain, Lin Xi continued to toast a cup of white rising.
In the past three years, Lin Xi has been by Ning Xiaoxue's side, and naturally knows Ning Xiaoxue's feelings for Bai Qi, so she must respect this glass of wine.
To put it mildly, when Ning Xiaoxue and Bai Qi get married, Bai Qi will still be her leader.
After saluting Bai Qi, Lin Xi saluted the four Situ Ling in turn, which made the Situ Ling four flattered, and hurriedly stood up and raised their glasses.
Seeing the actions of Situ Ling's four people, Bai Qi was very curious at first, when did these four people become so modest?
The four of them are the personal disciples of the top sect Dijian Sect, Elder Chen Yi, shouldn't they be sitting in their own positions at this time?
Later, after Lin Xi's explanation, Bai Qi understood that the senior sister Situ Ling and the fourth junior brother Wei Fei had fallen into the trap of the other party's five major forces of the Red Gate when they were tracking down the whereabouts of the descendants of the Bai Alliance Lord in Dark Hui City, and in the end, it was Lin Xi who arrived in time with people and saved Situ Ling and Wei Fei's lives.
The reason why Situ Ling and the four of them respected Lin Xi so much was not all because Lin Xi saved the lives of Situ Ling and Wei Fei, but because Lin Xi's own strength had reached the point where the four of them had to respect him.
What surprised Bai Qi the most was that the second senior brother Yu Fei and the third junior brother Yu Wenle actually met Li Fei of the Martial God Temple in the Dark Confucian City.
However, Li Fei did not come to Dark Confucian City to save the descendants of the White League Lord, nor did he arrest the descendants of the White League Lord, but to kill the people of the Red Gate.
According to Yu Fei, after Li Fei fell to the Confucianism City, he killed the people of the Red Gate when he saw them, and even an elder-level master of the Red Gate died in the hands of Li Fei.
After everyone was full of food and drink, they went back to their rooms to rest, but Bai Qi touched Bai Yu's room.
"You don't rest in your room, why are you here with me?" Bai Yu looked at Bai Qi who was sitting opposite him curiously.
"Accompany me to Luohuang Valley tomorrow!" Bai Qi said straight to the point.
"What are you doing in Luohuang Valley?" Bai Yu's expression was stunned.
Bai Qi smiled mysteriously and said: "That time in the Dragon War Tomb Mansion, after watching the images left by the Dragon War, I found that the place where the White Alliance Lord fell, there is a high probability that it is the Falling Phoenix Valley! And the vision of the Falling Phoenix Valley thirteen years ago, hasn't the specific reason not been investigated? So I want to verify it and see if my guess is correct!"
