Xia Hou left. He held the casket full of ashes and walked toward the shore of the Hulan Sea. There, countless powerful subordinates who were loyal to him welcomed his return. However, his figure was so lonely and even a little stooped. He no longer had the demeanor of a domineering and unparalleled general.
Ye Su silently watched the figure gradually disappearing by the lake. He knew that this person was useless. This famous general had been swinging between the West-Hill Divine Palace and the Tang Empire in the first half of his life. He had unreservedly offered his loyalty and meritorious deeds to both sides in exchange for supreme glory and background. Today, he had thrown away all these things that he had gone through countless hardships and even countless Gravitational Tribulations in exchange for the Tomes of Arcane. However, in the end, he only got a handful of ashes. After this, he would definitely suffer a strong backlash from the Divine Hall and the Tang Empire.
Therefore, he had to be useless. The hierarch of the West-Hill Divine Palace and the two Great Divine Priests of Revelation and Judgment would probably feel sorry for abandoning an important figure in the Tang Empire. However, Ye Su came from the Zhishou Abbey. He did not care about these secular struggles. However, because of this, he subconsciously glanced at the silent girl.
He saw that the girl's red dress was messy and ragged. He did not look worried because of her injuries. Instead, he frowned because of her youthful and graceful body.
Because of his frown, Ye Hongyu's beautiful cheeks became paler. She had been staring at Ye Su since he came from the top of the Snow-capped Peak. Neither Xia Hou's iron box nor Eldest Brother of the Academy could make her look away. However, Ye Su did not look at her. Until this moment, he finally looked at her. However, his eyes were filled with disgust. This fact made her feel extremely painful.
Ning Que noticed that her expression was a little strange. He followed her gaze and saw the man with a sword floating like a ghost. He thought that he had guessed the truth. He lowered his voice and asked, "Old lover?"
Ye Hongyu slowly turned her head and glanced at him emotionlessly. She said, "I will kill you."
Ning Que quietly took half a step behind Eldest Brother and said proudly, "No one can kill me now."
Tang Xiaotang interrupted, "Don't talk nonsense. That is her brother."
Ning Que realized that he had misunderstood and smiled apologetically at Ye Hongyu.
Tang, the World Wayfarer of the Devil's Doctrine, was Tang Xiaotang's elder brother, and the guy with the wooden sword was Ye Hongyu's elder brother. Ning Que thought that Old Master Haotian was indeed unfair to both the brother and sister, who were cultivation geniuses. Then he remembered that he had sincerely wished that the girls Chen Pipi fell in love with would have the fiercest elder brother in the world. Now it seemed that if Chen Pipi and Ye Hongyu did not have any ill-fated relationship in their childhood, would they develop a story with this girl from the Devil's Doctrine named Tang Xiaotang?
As he was thinking about these meaningless things, he heard Eldest Brother say, "Youngest Brother, let's go."
Ning Que liked to be called Youngest Brother very much. Of course, he was not called by Chen Pipi or Seventh Sister, but by Eldest Brother or Second Brother, because this title gave him a sense of security that he liked the most.
He was the Youngest Brother of the Academy, so if something happened, such as when he was about to be smashed into a pulp by Xiahou's big fist, Eldest Brother or Second Brother would definitely help him. This was undoubtedly the best thing in the world, so he answered very straightforwardly, "Got it, Eldest Brother."
Ye Su suddenly looked at them and said, "It seems that Mr. First doesn't want to see us?"
Eldest Brother looked at him quietly for a long time and said very slowly and seriously, "As a disciple of the Academy, of course I hate you Taoist priests. Although I don't worship Youngest Uncle as much as Jun Mo, I also hate you."
Ye Su did not expect that this extremely clean and gentle scholar would say that he hated Haotian Taoism so directly and straightforwardly. He could not help but keep silent for a long time, and then slightly bowed and said, "Thank you, Mr. First, for taking care of Youngest Brother these years."
Eldest Brother shook his head and did not accept his thanks. He pointed to Ning Que beside him and said, "This is my Youngest Brother. As for Pipi, you don't have to be so polite, because he is my Younger Brother, not yours."
Tang suddenly bowed to him very seriously and said, "From now on, I will count on Mr. First."
Ye Su slightly frowned and did not understand what he meant. Did the remnants of the Devil's Doctrine still not give up and still want to have a relationship with the Chang 'an Academy?
Tang Xiaotang looked at Ning Que and childishly said, "Ning Que, I will come to play with you in the future."
The white furry wolf arched its head out of the arms of the girl from the Devil's Doctrine, stared at Ning Que and let out a low growl, which probably meant that if Ning Que dared to invite her, she would definitely bite him into a bone stick.
Eldest Brother looked at Ning Que in a daze.
Ning Que innocently spread out his hands, indicating that there was nothing between him and the girl from the Devil's Doctrine.
Eldest Brother did not say anything more. He tightened the ladle around his waist and walked out of the field.
Ning Que tightened the luggage behind him and followed him out of the field. However, after a few steps, he jumped back to Mo Shanshan and said with a smile, "Let's go together, okay?"
Mo Shanshan's slightly round face was slightly red and she nodded without a trace.
…
…
The figures of the three disappeared under the winter sun of the Wilderness.
It was quiet by the Hulan Sea.
Tang looked into the distance and said, "He ranks first in the Academy and never fights. No one dares to fight against him. I have always thought that there is a gap between us. But what if he is not good at fighting? It is a pity that no one dares to try. "
Ye Su looked in the same direction as him and said, "I tried."
Tang frowned slightly as if he did not expect this answer. He looked at him and said, "And the result?"
Ye Su calmly said, "I fought, but he did not."
It was a very simple description and a very clear result. So Tang fell silent again.
Ye Su looked at Ye Hongyu and said, "You have done well these two years. I saw you break the realm on the snow cliff. But it is not good for you to be too obsessed with some things."
After saying this, he was ready to leave.
Ye Hongyu did not expect to hear such a warm comment. Although Ye Su's tone was extremely cold and calm, the word "not bad" was the warmest thing for her. She looked at her brother's back and called out sadly, "Brother …"
Ye Su did not look back and said, "You can call me brother when Pipi returns to the monastery."
Looking at the lonely back gradually disappearing, Ye Hongyu suddenly realized that it was not that she could not catch up with her brother, but that her brother had never thought of letting her stand on his shoulder. Was that person really that important?
Tang Xiaotang looked at her and said sympathetically, "Although you are sometimes very annoying, especially when you are fighting, it is really pitiful to be left behind by your own brother."
Ye Hongyu's face was as cold as frost and she ignored her.
After all, Tang Xiaotang was still young. She opened her innocent eyes and asked curiously, "Is Pipi your brother? Otherwise, why would your brother be so angry with you because of him? Also, why did you bully that guy? "
Ye Hongyu said tiredly, "That guy is the damn fatty that Ning Que mentioned in the valley."
Tang Xiaotang covered her mouth with her little hand in surprise, but her hand covered the beast's tail. She said, "A cultivation genius in Knowing Destiny State was bullied by you and had to run away from home. You are so powerful."
Ye Hongyu did not know how to respond to this kind of praise. If she had known that the bullying and the hidden dark thoughts would eventually lead to her brother's indifference to her, she would never have done this.
Tang looked at her and suddenly said, "Don't try to learn from your brother. Even if you are qualified to stand on his shoulder, you will become a living dead without a smell like him."
Ye Hongyu said scornfully, "How can a remnant of the Devil's Doctrine like you understand this kind of Taoism?"
Tang said expressionlessly, "But I know that if he leaves you here, I can kill you at any time."
Taoism and the Devil's Doctrine could not coexist. Ye Hongyu was the Grand Master of the Judicial Department of the West-Hill Divine Palace, so Tang had no reason not to kill her. However, for some unknown reason, or perhaps because the girl watching Ye Su's back was just an inconspicuous and pitiful little sister who had lost her brother, he just silently left with his sister.
Ye Hongyu stood there alone, thinking of her brother's lonely figure. After a while, she also walked slowly towards the Papal Cavalrymen of the Divine Hall by the Hulan Sea.
There was no one at the foot of the mountain that was previously extremely tense and murderous. The people of the world came for the Tomes of Arcane, but in the end, they got nothing. All they saw was a box of the ashes of their predecessors. The dim winter sun shone on the cold Wilderness. As the cold wind blew on the winter lake, the light became more and more desolate, making people feel lost.
…
…
Parting was always bitter, but Ning Que did not feel this, because he was sitting beside a wilted poplar forest with Eldest Brother, warming himself by a fire. There were some dried potatoes dug out from the ground buried under the fire, and there was a faint aroma.
A horse neighed in the distance, sounding extremely excited and joyful. Ning Que looked towards the source of the sound and saw the Big Black Horse shaking its head like a madman beside the half-warm stream that was not completely frozen.
Mo Shanshan was grooming the Big Black Horse, and her entire head and face were wet because of the Big Black Horse's disturbance. However, it was obvious that what she said outside the palace's tent was not all lies. She really liked Ning Que's Big Black Horse, so she was not angry. Instead, she giggled and showed a rare girlish expression.
"Eldest Brother, you are really admirable. You actually found this silly horse in such a large Wilderness, and even drove it all the way from the north to here. How can it listen to you?"
Ning Que looked at the scholar beside the fire, and his eyes revealed an irrepressible expression of shock and admiration.
Eldest Brother took a thick piece of firewood and slowly stirred the fire. He explained gently, "Teacher raises an old yellow bull, and I often deal with it, so they probably think it is more trustworthy? Speaking of which, Youngest Brother, your Big Black Horse is not bad. In the future, if that yellow bull returns to the back of the mountain to retire, it may be able to pull Teacher's carriage. "
Ning Que scratched his head and suddenly asked, "Eldest Brother, you are a very great person. Although the two guys we met just now were not as great as you, they are also very great people. So there is a problem that I have been thinking about."
Eldest Brother looked up at him and asked curiously, "What problem?"
"How can people like Ye Su, the successor of Zhishou Abbey, be so stubborn as to believe that the" Ming "Handscroll of the Tomes of Arcane is in the iron box? Tang is the successor of the Devil's Doctrine, why does he also believe it? If people like them are sure that the "Ming" Handscroll of the Tomes of Arcane will definitely appear here, then why has no one found it? "
Ning Que looked at Eldest Brother and asked seriously, "Where is the Tomes of Arcane?"
