Chapter 333: Xuanyue City
What agreement Ouyang Yi and Nangong Yu reached, outsiders don't know, and Ye Fan doesn't know either! It's just that he understands one thing, that is, Ouyang Yi gave up his position as the acting sect leader, not because he was forced by anyone, but willingly gave up the fight between the two. Otherwise, even if Ouyang Yi's injuries did not heal at this time, with the strength under his command alone, it was not something that Nangong Yu could forcibly force!
Moreover, Ye Fan is also very clear about Ouyang Yi's strength, not to mention that Ye Fan has already obtained the inheritance of the "Yin Yang Life and Death Sutra", and he can ascend to the position of the sect leader at any time, just with Ouyang Yi's strength, it is only a matter of time before he steps into the realm of the God Transformation Grandmaster!
So, fundamentally. In fact, the position of the substitute sect leader elected now is really unnecessary!
............
After the simple enthronement ceremony of the Acting Sect Master, as the people who came to the Netherworld Mountain to discuss the matter dispersed, Ye Fan and his party quietly left the Netherworld Mountain, where they had been trapped for ten years.
Seven days later, a simple and unusual carriage appeared outside the imperial capital Xuanyue City. It is said to be shabby, because the horse pulling the carriage for this carriage is just a short-legged old horse ploughing the fields, although the carriage behind the old horse is clean and tidy and not shabby, but it is only the most ordinary two-wheeled carriage, placed in a country town, such a carriage may be regarded as a symbol of the rich, but it is quite shabby when it is placed outside the imperial capital of the Xuanyue Dynasty.
However, such a slightly shabby carriage attracted the attention of many people at this time, and the reason was the driver in the carriage. Different from the big man on the other carriages, the men were a man and a woman who drove for this carriage, the man was quite ordinary, wearing an ordinary gray cloth robe, and his body was quite strong, and he didn't look much different from the handlebar style on other carriages. The only thing that caught people's attention was that the man who was supposed to be a handlebar type was missing a right arm, and he was leaning against the door of the carriage at this time, snoring slightly, and his body was constantly rising and falling as the carriage advanced, as if he had fallen asleep!
And compared with the slightly strange male style, the woman who is driving now is the root cause of the real attention! The woman holding the horsewhip is wearing a plain white long skirt, and her long black hair hangs down to the back of her head like a black waterfall, reaching her waist! Compared with this slightly ordinary outfit, the woman's appearance is very unusual. On top of the delicate facial features, there is a pair of watery spring eyes that seem to be able to speak, and the slightly small body looks like a person in the painting who walked out of the smoke and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, ethereal and full of vitality!
The woman in white ignored the gaze of others, and a pair of snow-white slender palms firmly held the horsewhip in her hand, just like a swordsman holding his own long sword, serious and focused!
"Crackle!"
The horsewhip raised an arc in the sky, and with a crisp whip sound fell in the sky above the old horse, after adjusting the direction of the carriage, the woman's delicate and good-looking Joan nose wrinkled slightly, and asked softly to the man who was snoring gently: "Uncle He, where did you say Gongzi is going now? We are about to enter the city, why haven't we seen him come back?" ”
The man who seemed to be sleeping did not move, his body was still rising and falling with the carriage, as if he had not heard the question of the woman in white, only the slight snoring paused slightly, and a voice with a faint smile came out of his chest: "Little girl, do you miss your son? Don't worry, what our son said never counted!"
As soon as the words fell, the one-armed man's mouth began to snore again, and even the angle of his body did not seem to change in the slightest, as if the joke just now did not come from his mouth!
"Humph!"
The woman in white Qiong's nose wrinkled slightly, and after snorting lightly, she said unruly: "Uncle He, you are bullying me again, be careful that I will sue you after my son comes back!"
Just when the two were arguing for fun, a breeze passed leisurely around the carriage, and then the old horse pulling the carriage paused slightly, and a smiling voice came out of the carriage: "What, He Song bullied our little Tong'er again? Tell the master, the master will give you justice!"
"Ahh
The woman in white first exclaimed, and then as soon as the horsewhip was released, she turned to look at the carriage behind, her eyes were full of surprise!
"Childe!"
He Song, who was leaning on the carriage and snoring, suddenly opened his eyes, and a bright light like the explosion of the starry sky flashed suddenly, and then disappeared immediately, and when he turned around and lifted the curtain of the carriage, there was no half light in his eyes, just like an old farmer who had worked hard for half his life!
Speaking of which, He Song is also in his forties this year......
Ye Fan, who was wearing a moon-white robe and full of silver hair, walked out of the carriage, his eyes swept over He Song's face, nodded with satisfaction, and said: "Not bad! In ten years, you can retract your own strength freely and reach the realm of returning to the basics.
In the ten years that he has been trapped in the Netherworld Mountain, Ye Fan has been using carving to temper his state of mind, except for Ye Tong, a tiger girl who is often accompanied by him, Ye Fan rarely meets others. But I didn't want He Song to not only break through the innate realm in the past ten years, but also reach the realm of refining spirits.
Although it is even worse than Jian Jiu and Ye Fan, but above these rivers and lakes, it can be called a rare martial arts wizard!
After ten years of baptism, He Song couldn't help but have a trace of old age on his face, and in the face of Ye Fan's praise, he just showed a trace of honest expression, and said modestly: "He Song can have today, all thanks to your cultivation!"
Regarding He Song's modesty, Ye Fan smiled noncommittally and said casually: "Resources are important, but if you don't have that understanding and perseverance, even if you are given more resources, you will not be able to achieve your current achievements!"
"Master, what about me? What about me?"
Seeing that Ye Fan had been talking to He Song all the time, and didn't pay any attention to what he meant, the woman in white couldn't help but start to be coquettish!
When Ye Fan first saw the tiger girl, she was just a little girl hiding in her mother's arms and silently enduring the warmth and coldness of the world, and too much suffering left too many traces on her body, and she also developed a strong character that was diametrically opposed to her appearance. Such a coquettish scene in front of him, even if Ye Fan has been with her on the Netherworld Mountain for ten years, he has never seen it a few times!
"Hehe, little girl, you haven't told the master yet, how did your Uncle He bully you!"
Hu Niu, who was later renamed Ye Tong, turned slightly red, and said nonchalantly to Ye Fan's ridicule: "Master, you also bully others and ignore you!"
Saying that, the little girl turned around, and the horsewhip in her hand circled in mid-air, and whipped it hard at the back buttocks of the old horse, but when the horsewhip fell, it was violently retracted, leaving a loud horsewhip in the air, but there was not much strength that really fell on the old horse!
Looking at the duplicitous little girl, Ye Fan couldn't help but show a heartfelt smile, looked up at the flowing clouds above the nine heavens, and said after sighing inexplicably: "Okay, little girl, the master won't joke with you! Let's drive into the city, there is not much time left for us!"
Since leaving the Netherworld Mountain with a few people, Ye Fan left alone, went to his hometown in Beizhou, and visited a group of teenagers buried in the mountain behind the Qingxu Temple! After thirteen years, Ye Fan came quietly and left quietly, except for leaving a new grave on the back mountain, he never alarmed anyone, including the remaining few sword-wielding teenagers!
Running out of time?
Ye Tong didn't understand why her master would say this sentence that sounded a little inexplicable, but she didn't ask, but silently waved the horse whip in her hand and drove the old horse pulling the cart towards the gate of the imperial capital!
Compared with Ye Tong, He Song undoubtedly knows a lot more about Ye Fan, but he also doesn't understand Ye Fan's sudden exclamation, but he vaguely feels that something big will happen!
This couldn't help but remind him of that early morning ten years ago, when everyone was fighting for life and death for the covenant of Yunshan Temple, but he could only stay at the foot of the mountain, and he didn't even have the qualifications to be a bystander! That feeling of powerlessness made him desperate, but it was precisely because of this huge pressure that he was able to cross the realm of soul condensation in the past ten years, rush to the realm of soul refining, and become a real master of the rivers and lakes!
But at this moment, when Ye Fan sighed, He Song's heart was pounding again, he didn't know if his current strength would be able to help his son-in-law at the time of the incident!
After finishing speaking, Ye Fan sat down on the wheel, and together with He Song, the two of them leaned on the carriage left and right, and rushed towards the gate of the imperial capital in the scorching sun at noon!
All of a sudden, on top of this slightly shabby carriage, such a strange picture appeared.
A silver-haired young man in gorgeous clothes and a middle-aged uncle dressed as a peasant man sat on the wheel of the car as if nothing happened, but the driver was a handsome girl who was eighteen years old.
In the weird, but there is a trace of a matter of course, as if it should have been like this!
............
The Xuanyue Dynasty was founded for 1,300 years, and the Xuandu City was designated as the national capital, and later changed to Xuanyue City!
Xuanyue City is 367 miles long and horizontal from east to west, and about 200 miles wide from north to south, in addition to the residences of residents and the places where merchants gather, there are also many developed hills and dense forests, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a country within a city!
The wheels were crushed on the official road paved with bluestone, constantly making a "creaking, creaking" sound, and after doing tea kung fu, the three people who rode on the carriage finally came to the capital of the Xuanyue Dynasty!
The city is a hundred miles longitudinal and horizontal, with a radius of tens of thousands of square kilometers, and the moat wall is not less than 100 meters.
The height of 100 meters seems to be very high, but if the defending enemy is changed from the human race to the huge demon race, everything is very reasonable!
In fact, countless years ago, this city, now named Xuanyue, was really the last line of defense for human beings against the demon race, and there were countless martyrs who threw their heads and spilled their blood on this city forged by life, defending the last habitat of the human race!
Because, all people, all the Terrans, firmly believe that under this blood-poured city, there is the greatest luck of the Terrans!
"It's really big!"
After paying the tax coins for entering the city and entering the capital, Ye Tong couldn't help but exclaim, appearing in front of everyone's eyes, extending to the road at the end of the line of sight, which is ten zhang wide, not to mention several carriages in parallel, even if it is an army of thousands of people, you can ride your horse and gallop wildly, and there will be no blockage!
"It's huge!"
Ye Fan stretched out his hand and knocked the little girl's head, and jumped down from the carriage: "Okay, you two let's take a walk here first! I'll deal with some personal matters first, and I'll meet at the Qingshan Inn in the inner city later!"
Hearing Ye Fan's arrangement, the little girl couldn't help but pout, looked at Ye Fan pitifully, and pretended to whisper: "What, obviously I just came back, and the master wants to leave alone!"
Amused by Ye Tong's pitiful appearance, Ye Fan smiled helplessly: "You two are tired of traveling and driving, let's go and rest first, and wait until evening, the master will take you to see the night market in the imperial capital!"
Although Ye Tong is eighteen years old, but in her eighteen years of life, there is not much life experience, except for the inn outside Chuiyun City, there is only the purple bamboo forest on the Netherworld Mountain! So after arriving at the imperial capital for the first time, she couldn't help but show a little bit of a little daughter posture in front of Ye Fan, although it was contrary to her tough style all the time, but it was also a little cute!
Of course, this is also in front of Ye Fan, if he were to be someone else, Ye Tong would probably not show this little daughter posture, but the hedgehog shell that belonged to the tiger girl!
"Jian Jiu, you also stay, take care of them!"
Ye Fan smiled and commanded the void behind him, and without waiting for Jian Jiu to answer, he made a green wind and dissipated into the void, leaving no trace!
When there was a rebellion on the Netherworld Mountain that day, Jian Jiu was actually not planted by Ma Yu to turn blood into a poison, but was suddenly taken down by him, and locked up with Hu Niu and others!
It stands to reason that even if Jian Jiu can't beat the masters of the Xuan Realm, if he is bent on escaping, with the weirdness of "Phantom Ghost Step", there should be no big problem, but unfortunately, Ma Yu, who is responsible for capturing him, is the ancestor who practiced "Phantom Ghost Step", whether it is stealth or stealth sneak attack, it is more than a step higher than Jian Jiu, plus the gap between the strength realm of the two, so Jian Jiu has no power to resist the street!
As for what Ma Yu said that day, the purpose of the poison caused by the blood in Jian Jiu's body was nothing more than to distract Ye Fan and the others! It's a pity that when the matter came to an end, they were still successfully killed by Ye Fan and the others!
