When he opened his eyes, he found himself lying on the bed in the bedroom of the other courtyard.

He rolled over and propped himself on the bed with his hands, staring down at his boots for a long time.

It's been days since I've slept so soundly. The feeling of soreness and laziness was swept away, and the whole body was very comfortable. But his heart was empty. Anyway, I can't say what's strange.

Suddenly, a terrible chill hit my heart.

How did I get back last night?

Before he opened his eyes, he clearly remembered that he had a comfortable dream at night. When I opened my eyes, my brain was blank.

Bai Ye was a little flustered, holding his head and trying to remember. After a long time, the messy picture in my mind could not be pieced together.

I vaguely remember the sound of a piano in mid-air.

There was a strange smell around me.

It seems that there is a stall selling wontons nearby.

The stall owner's words came back to memory. But they were stacked together piecemeal.

“...... Every seven days, you count as catching up with ......."

“...... Parade of the Holy Spirit...... Every day..."

"At first glance, you just came to the imperial capital......

“...... Today is the ...... of the Elders"

Bai Ye broke out in a cold sweat.

The Holy Spirit Clan, was it so blatant last night, what the hell was a public parade in the Imperial Capital!

After piecing together for a long time, Bai Ye finally collapsed back to bed with his back facing the sky. Memories that disappeared out of thin air suddenly came back all at once. Every sound, every detail, is so real and detailed.

...... When the ethereal sound of the piano came from the neighborhood next door, the peddler didn't care about his stall, squeezed them away, and just left. The friends were curious for a moment and followed.

Turning the corner of the street, the wide river along the row of avenues on both sides is crowded not only with ordinary people and high-rollers rushing out of the fireworks, but also with many dignitaries of different identities.

Bai Ye carefully looked at the waists of those people, and many of them were court officials in civilian clothes and wearing dark blue official belts. These officials even took their families and held their children.

Everyone watched respectfully and reverently as the convoy slowly drove through the avenue.

In front of him was a white-robed man with a white gauze banner, and in the middle of the line was a silver-gray high-van cart. There were also several columns of white-robed people behind the car.

Bai Ye remembered. These people, who suddenly appeared last night, were all shrouded in white veil, and even their faces were covered with scarves.

Of course, what frightened him from the bottom of his heart was not the costumes of this group of weirdos, but the mighty spiritual power that swirled from them.

At that time, Xiaobai explained a few words in a serious whisper, and the Fangyi people and the eldest lady realized that the symbol on the banner represented the Jiulao Hall.

The so-called "Holy Spirit Procession" turned out to be organized by the Nine Old Church.

In Bai Ye's original impression, the identity of the only bloodline of his Holy Spirit Clan royal family must not be made public in the Eastern Continent.

It wasn't until last night that he realized that it was only the original sin that was borne on him alone.

Since the conquest of the Eastern Continent, the Holy Spirit Clan has lived in this land for nearly a thousand years. Although the vast majority of the people returned to the Western Continent four hundred years ago, there were still a very small number of Holy Spirit people who chose to stay. They call themselves the remnants of the Western Continent.

Even though the seven royal families of the north rose up and overthrew the sharply weakened pure-blood dynasty, these remnants were still vassal to the Dalan Kingdom established by the mixed blood groups of the eastern and western continents, and continued to live well.

All the bereaved families are under the jurisdiction of the Nine Elders Church. And Jiulaotang still has a nominal high prestige in the Lan Kingdom.

And Bai Ye's father and the elders are not under the control of the Nine Old Church, they are the royal nobles of the Holy Spirit Clan who have returned from exile in the Western Continent.

In the Western Continent, no one agrees with them anymore. And in the Eastern Continent, no one will accept them anymore.

The only hope in the hearts of the three elders who lived in seclusion was that their father, who was in the old town circle, would be resurrected in two years. As long as he returns, there is still room for redemption.

Bai Ye knew his identity when he was a child, but he never thought of taking this world back. Father, the half-dead corpse, was his only relative. He just wanted to do something to keep his loved ones from being tortured again.

The chaotic mind pulled back to last night.

Jiu Lao Tang.

The marshal has already been arranged. He came to the imperial capital to go to the Nine Old Halls to heal his wounds.

But on the first night of arriving in the imperial capital, he was stunned by the streets of Jiulaotang, and he was probably far from alone.

What is the "Parade of the Holy Spirit" all about?

The Nine Old Sects openly cast some kind of strange secret technique in the imperial capital, and I don't know how long it has been, but no one cares. What the hell is this for?

He sat up, closed his eyes and looked inward, the chaotic spiritual power in his body did not change, and there was no abnormality on his body.

But last night was not. He vaguely remembered that the sometimes low and sometimes high sound of the guqin pulled everyone around. At the moment before losing consciousness, Bai Ye saw that the people around him were all intoxicated, and even occasionally a few people twisted their bodies to the sound of the piano, and Bai Ye himself was also light and comfortable......

Then, he forgot what he had done, and went back to the courtyard anyway. I don't know what happened to my brothers and sisters.

Just as he was thinking, someone knocked lightly outside the bedroom door. Bai Ye hurriedly got out of bed and pulled on his boots to open the door.

The one who came to call the door was the taciturn middle-aged steward. He lowered his eyebrows and said, "Elder Tao and the eldest lady are ready to go." You take the second car. ”

The suspicious Bai Ye returned to the house, hastily brushed up, simply tied his long hair into a loose bun, put on a hooded black robe, hurriedly ran to the gate of the courtyard, and got into the car.

The old steward Tao sat in the car, and there was no one else. The old man looked at him carefully for a while, nodded and said, "I was negligent." Don't listen to that sound in the future. If you meet again, the farther away you are, the better. ”

Bai Ye's heart chuckled, and he hurriedly asked, "Xiaolan, are they okay?"

The little sister took care of her, and she recovered during the night. You're not bad, you carried it yourself. The old steward closed his eyes, "The messenger asked, Master Bai and they also went back to the house yesterday." It's the first time I've listened to it, so it shouldn't be a big deal to get some sleep. ”

Bai Ye's mind was full of questions, but the old man had closed his eyes and stopped talking, so he had to suppress all the countless questions in his heart.

The two carriages staggered for a long time. only then stopped at a square in the north of the imperial capital.

Bai Ye got out of the car with the old steward, and looked around the square, except for the high wall at the edge of the square, there was no building in sight, and not a single pedestrian was seen.

Jiang Jinglan had already gotten out of the car first, and stood in front of a magnificent building directly north of the square with the two senior sisters.

I can't say how to describe this building. In Bai Ye's opinion, this is a door. A huge doorway.

The two quaint thick stone pillars are three or four zhang wide apart. The stout pillar was topped by a huge stone of extraordinary length, forming a square doorway. The stone is almost entirely natural and original in its form, without any decoration.

The stone door only has a frame, no door leaf, and it is said that the interior of the building can be seen inside. But Bai Ye got very close to the doorway, and still couldn't see anything.

Behind the gate, there was always a cloud of fog.

"How do you feel?" Jiang Jinglan's voice sounded in his ears, and Bai Ye realized that he had already crossed the three of them and was about to walk into the door.

"I ...... I can't tell. ”

Jiang Jinglan stared at the dense fog in the stone giant gate, muttering to herself, but it seemed to enter Bai Ye's heart: "How do I feel, this door is dragging me inside......"

Old Steward Tao stepped forward without saying a word and entered the stone gate without hesitation. Bai Ye and Jiang Jinglan glanced at each other before walking in.

Only then did Bai Ye notice. Jiang Jinglan didn't wear a black robe, and also changed out of the black power suit she always wore on weekdays.

Today's eldest lady is dressed in a goose-yellow palace dress, her black hair is knotted into a complex high mustache, and her head is full of hairpins. The pink thin neck is as warm as jade, and further down, the editor said that he would not let it be written.

Bai Ye had never seen such a dressed lady, and she was a little stunned for a while, and she didn't keep up.

Jiang Jinglan seemed to have eyes behind him, lowered his head slightly, and walked faster.

The clothes moved with the wind, and the whole person was like a soft flower blooming in a cluster, and soon drifted away.

Bai Ye walked for a long distance with a red face, and it was not until the two old men suddenly appeared in front of him that he came back to his senses.

Old Tao shopkeeper walked over with a smile and patted him lightly on the back: "These are the two elders on duty today. Ask them to check it out for you first. ”

Bai Ye hesitated for a moment, looked at the two old men with white eyebrows and white beards, and suddenly felt that the description was very kind.

Do people all look the same when they get old? They look similar to the elders of Fangyi!

As soon as the two old men were mistaken, they had already done it. One of them pushed Bai Ye to the back chair, and the other untied his robe.

Xiao Ye was stunned and let the two elders get up and down, poking his neck for a while, and poking his stomach for a while.

Fortunately, there were only Tao Steward and two elders in this room. Xiao Lan and Senior Sister Xiao were waiting outside the door. Otherwise, it's a bit of a shame.

The two elders abruptly stopped together. The letter exchanged suspicious glances with each other.

Bai Ye suddenly had a bad premonition.

Sure enough, one of the elders, who had more wrinkles, trembled and pressed his palm on Bai Ye's dantian.

"Don't ......"

Before the words fell, a stream of pure spiritual power slowly probed into Bai Ye's abdomen.

Immediately after, the elder's face distorted. He was horrified to find that he could no longer control his spiritual power!

Bai Ye is also helpless. He didn't do anything about it. It was the elder himself who infused the spiritual power. The rest is not up to him......

The spiritual power in the elder's whole body instantly boiled, surging into his right arm, piercing out of his palm, and rushing into the dantian of the young man in front of him!

Seeing that the spiritual power that had been accumulated for decades was about to pour out, the out-of-control elder opened his mouth helplessly, but the old partner beside him took two steps back, and a terrifying look appeared on his face.

Bai Ye pushed the elder out of his heels.

The two old men gasped, looked at each other again, and at the same time leaned over and bowed their heads.

Bai Ye hurriedly bounced. He didn't expect the reaction of these two to be so big.

The old steward hurriedly stepped forward and picked up the old brothers. The elders of the Nine Old Halls, however, fell to their knees again in panic. The trembling voice exclaimed: "This ...... This is the royal blood of my Holy Spirit Clan!"
