Ye Hongyu did not say anything. She just looked at him quietly.
Ning Que looked at her and continued, "Long Qing's survival will do no good to the West-Hill Divine Palace or the Tang Empire. I have no way to kill him now, so I need you to do it yourself."
Ye Hongyu suddenly said, "Since he has betrayed the Divine Hall, he will not be able to survive in Haotian's world. So he will definitely leave the Central Plains and enter the Wilderness."
Ning Que said, "That is what I am worried about. The Wilderness is boundless. If he hides in Tianqi Mountain with the fallen knights, who can find him?"
"But if he wants to leave the Central Plains and enter the Wilderness, he has to pass through the Yan Kingdom. I don't think Long Qing and his subordinates can do it."
Ye Hongyu said, "Because you have forgotten that there is someone in the Yan Kingdom. Compared to us, that person is the one that Long Qing wants to kill the most. Correspondingly, that person also wants Long Qing to die the most."
"You mean Crown Prince Chong Ming?"
Ning Que only then realized that the West-Hill Divine Palace had already made arrangements. But he still felt that it was not reliable. He frowned and said, "Even if Crown Prince Chong Ming can control the cavalry of the Yan Kingdom, they are still ordinary people. I don't think he has the ability to kill Long Qing."
Ye Hongyu said expressionlessly, "Even if he can't kill him, he can at least delay him for a while."
Ning Que understood something and said, "Delay is to wait for someone to arrive."
Ye Hongyu said, "Exactly."
Ning Que looked into her eyes and said, "You go personally."
Ye Hongyu looked back at him calmly and said, "I will go personally."
Ning Que immediately heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Goodbye."
Ye Hongyu raised her eyebrows and said, "It seems that you don't want to see me in front of you."
"If it were any other time, I would be very willing to make a pot of good tea, cut a few plates of beef, and have a long talk with you … But I am really anxious now."
"No matter how good the tea is, it should not go with beef. It should go with liquor. As a disciple of the Headmaster of the Academy, you actually made such a mistake. It seems that you are really anxious."
Ning Que looked down at his boots and thought of the blood that the boots had stepped on yesterday. He said, "Yesterday in front of the Red Lotus Temple, Long Qing said that he might be the Son of Yama."
Hearing this, Ye Hongyu smiled. Her smile had a complicated meaning. She looked at Ning Que and said, "Now everyone in the world is guessing that you are the Son of Yama. But because there is no evidence, neither the Haotian Taoism nor the Buddhism Sect has done anything. But you are saying that Long Qing is?"
Ning Que looked up and spread his hands and said with a smile, "At least from the stories over these years, Long Long is more like the Son of Yama than me, because he is darker and more miserable than me. is. than me."
Ye Hongyu said, "This does not prove anything. You must know that the reason why everyone is guessing that you are the Son of Yama is because the former Divine Priest of Light used his eyes to discover you in Chang 'an."
Ning Que said, "But what he saw may not be true. In fact, the West-Hill Divine Palace denied his opinion. The abbey dean put him in the You Prison."
Ye Hongyu looked at him quietly. After a long silence, she suddenly said, "But have you ever thought that if the Divine Priest of Light was wrong, why would Haotian Taoism have such a strong reaction? Why did the abbey dean come back to the human world and put him down personally? I don't know what happened back then, but I have a feeling that it is not so simple. "
"Most things in the world are simple or complicated. The reason why the Abbey Dean suppressed Wei Guangming in person was that the old man was too obsessed. He still wanted to stir up a storm of blood in Chang 'an and kill the Son of Yama in his imagination. The Abbey Dean cared about the world and Haotian Taoism. How could he let him provoke another war between Haotian Taoism and the Academy?"
Ning Que said calmly, "I have thought about these things, but you probably haven't thought about it. Even if Wei Guangming is the most powerful Divine Priest of Light in the West-Hill Divine Palace in a hundred years, light and darkness are always beyond the human realm. How could he see through the arrangements of Yama?"
"Maybe the truth that Wei Guangming saw was the truth in the mirror. That's why he mistook illusion for reality. I am just an illusion that Yama cast in the human world. I am a fake person in the mirror. Long Qing is not in the mirror. He is the real one."
The door of the Taoist Temple opened slowly. The burning torches were blown by the air that gushed out of the temple. The light around the stone steps suddenly flickered.
Ye Hongyu's blood-red Robe of Judgment fluttered in the night wind. She walked out with an indifferent expression. Everyone, including the priest in red, bowed to her as they looked at her.
Ye Hongyu did not talk to the priests in the Taoist Temple, nor did she go to the palace to accept the Emperor of the Kingdom of Qi's greeting. She got on the sacred sedan and left with 500 Divine Hall Papal Knights and dozens of subordinates of the Judicial Department.
The sacred sedan arrived at dusk and left shortly after nightfall. She left the West-Hill Divine Palace and came to the capital of the human world. It seemed that she had made a special trip to meet Ning Que and cure Sangsang.
The subordinates of the Judicial Department, who had been silent all this while, could no longer suppress the shock in their hearts. They looked at the dark window above the Taoist Temple in confusion, thinking that the relationship between the Academy and the Great Divine Priest of Judgment was unexpectedly close if the Great Divine Priest of Judgment could summon them at will.
Luo Kedi, who was as burly as a mountain, walked silently behind the sacred sedan. He looked indifferently at the faintly discernible figure behind the veil of the sacred sedan. The fanaticism and greed in his eyes quickly disappeared.
You are obsessed with Taoism, so you are called the Tao Addict. But are you really the Tao Addict in the eyes of your believers? He thought silently that she would use the power of the Academy to strengthen her position in the Divine Hall. How could such a person be ignorant of the world?
…
…
The autumn wind of the entire continent gradually turned cold. Capital Cheng, the capital of the Yan Kingdom located in the north, was even colder. Winter had arrived. Withered leaves were blown by the wind on the quiet long street, rolling all over the ground, accompanied by a crisp sound of breaking into powder.
Most of the streets in the capital of the Yan Kingdom had been cordoned off since morning. Other than the armed troops, no one could be seen on the streets. Even so, the soldiers were extremely vigilant. They stood with their backs to the street and stared at all moving objects in front of them, including the fallen leaves.
All of this was because of the huge sacred sedan that was moving slowly on the long street. The sacred sedan had just entered the capital from the south gate of the Yan Kingdom. It passed by the Yan Kingdom's imperial palace but did not enter. Instead, it went to the north gate.
The sacred sedan was magnificent and huge, as if it was a moving Taoist temple. It was accompanied by hundreds of Papal Cavalrymen and dozens of powerhouses from the Judicial Department. Logically speaking, it should be moving very slowly. In fact, it was moving very slowly. However, the amazing thing was that the sacred sedan was in the capital of the Qi Kingdom in the south a few days ago. Now, it had appeared in the capital of the Yan Kingdom in the north. This itself was almost a miracle.
The veil around the sacred sedan was very thin. Even though it was like the willow trees in the winter fog, it could not completely block out the light and cold wind.
It was a little cold inside the sacred sedan. Ye Hongyu was still wearing the thin blood-red robe. Her feet were bare as she stepped on the velvet blanket. She did not seem to feel the cold at all.
Crown Prince Chong Ming tightened his robe and tried to make his sitting posture more upright and respectful. He tried his best not to look at the beautiful girl's bare feet. He knew that although the girl was beautiful, her beauty belonged to Haotian after she put on the blood-red robe. She was not someone mortals like him could get close to.
Ye Hongyu looked at the weak man sitting a few feet away and said coldly, "You disappoint me."
Crown Prince Chong Ming smiled bitterly and said, "Great Divine Priest, although I also want to kill my brother, he is my father's son after all. He has many loyal subordinates in the Yan Kingdom. Most importantly, he is now a Grand Cultivator in the Knowing Destiny State. The Yan Kingdom is weak and cannot stop him."
Ye Hongyu said expressionlessly, "No matter how weak a country is, a cultivator cannot resist it. I said in the letter that you have to delay him for some time even if you cannot stop him."
"It is Chong Ming's fault to disappoint you."
Crown Prince Chong Ming looked at the northern wilderness outside the city gate. He had a complicated expression on his face and murmured, "This time, no one can stop him."
Ye Hongyu looked at the expression on his face and pondered.
Prince Long Qing and his fallen knights had successfully broken through several lines of defense of the West-Hill Divine Palace. After entering the territory of the Yan Kingdom, they seemed to have melted into the land. They passed through Capital Cheng and entered the Wilderness without a sound.
In many people's eyes, the West-Hill Divine Palace's pursuit of this traitor could only end here. Even a thousand years ago, when the Great Divine Priest of Light rebelled, Haotian Taoism did not try to enter the Wilderness to kill him.
That was because the seemingly barren but actually rich land did not belong to the people of the Central Plains.
Haotian's Divine Light had not completely covered that land.
However, to everyone's surprise, the Great Divine Priest of Judgment did not turn south at Capital Cheng. Instead, he continued into the Wilderness.
The chilly autumn wind grew stronger in the Wilderness. At one point, it blew up all the layers of gauze around the divine chariot. At this moment, some priests were shocked to find that the graceful figure of the Great Divine Priest of Judgment was no longer there.
In the wilderness northwest of the frontier fortress of the Yan Kingdom, there was a not-so-steep mountain range. There was a hot spring in the mountain and a small lake as blue as the sea beside the mountain. The lake was shaped like a beauty's waist.
The autumn wind blew gently between the cliffs. Ye Hongyu's blood-red divine robe fluttered in the wind, outlining her mesmerizing waistline. It was like the thin blue lake below the cliff that could make countless people drown in it.
Looking at the few bonfires by the blue lake in the distance, her expression did not change at all. Just like ascending to the Great Divine Priest of Judgment, these were all things that came naturally to her.
Since she had promised Ning Que that she would personally kill that mad dog, she would definitely do it. No matter where she went, whether it was in the Central Plains or the Wilderness.
