"What is fate?" Ji Zhiyuan looked back. There was a crowd of people, as well as the hustle and bustle in the distance. Their every action and every word seemed to intersect and evolve into a chapter of fate.
Everyone was the same.
"Fate?" Wei Ran mulled over this familiar yet strange word. "In our sect, we don't pay much attention to fate. Our fate is with the king, and our fate is with the country. They are closely related. What does my lord think it is? "
"Fate is that I am unwilling to lower my head before the Saint Emperor and under his might. Heh." Ji Zhiyuan laughed self-deprecatingly. "Because I am unwilling to lower my head, I walked the old path. When the time comes, war will be inevitable. But I am tired of war. "
"War is still far away," Wei Ran said. "The army of the Imperial Court must pass through Luojing if they want to attack. But Luojing is King Wei's court. How can they allow other armies to pass through? To borrow my lord's words, the various domains appear to be subservient to the Imperial Court on the surface, but in reality, they do not listen to orders. "
"But it will come, won't it?" Ji Zhiyuan said.
Wei Ran was silent.
"If war comes and I am not around, go and seek refuge with King Wei," Ji Zhiyuan said.
Wei Ran shuddered. "My lord, you …"
"I am not leaving." Ji Zhiyuan's gaze was firm and comforting. "I am not leaving, but it is hard to say what will happen in the future. I have been having the same dream recently. I dream that I am your enemy, fighting and hating … I wonder if this is an omen. In any case, remember my words. When I am not around, seek refuge with King Wei. "
Wei Ran opened his mouth, wanting to say something but hesitating. In the end, he said, "This subordinate will remember."
"Return to Chamberlain of Dependencies first. I will return later," Ji Zhiyuan said.
Wei Ran shook his head. "My lord, you must not. It is dangerous outside. The Saint Emperor sees you as a thorn in his side and will not let you go easily. If you travel alone …"
"Wei Ran, I have something to do," said Ji Zhiyuan.
Wei Ran said, "In that case, I will accompany you. Otherwise, what's the point of letting me come along?"
"Yes," Ji Zhiyuan said.
"What is it?" Wei Ran asked.
"I don't know the way to Tavern Heaven and Earth. Tell me again," Ji Zhiyuan said.
"This …" Wei Ran was confused.
"You said you were familiar with Tianjing. Were you lying to me?" Ji Zhiyuan chuckled.
"Of course not …" Wei Ran let out a rare bitter laugh. "Yuchi took me there once. Heaven on Earth is a scary place." As he spoke, he explained the route.
Ji Zhiyuan listened to it once and memorized it. He said, "You go back first. If you get lost, I'll hire a carriage."
"My lord, as long as I am in Tianjing, I will never leave your side." Wei Ran shook his head firmly.
"Then follow me," said Ji Zhiyuan.
As he spoke, he went to Tavern Heaven and Earth.
Their pace was not fast. When they arrived, Tavern Heaven and Earth was already a pile of ruins.
"Are we late?" Ji Zhiyuan looked around. He did not know how the battle between Yan Li and the others had progressed. He did not know if Yan Chaoyang had been rescued. Only now did he feel the inconvenience of having fewer people.
"My lord, do you know where this place is?" Wei Ran asked.
"This is Moulin Rouge. It is also the base of the demon race in the human world." Ji Zhiyuan said.
"When I was still in Tianjing, I could only vaguely feel it. How did my lord know?" Wei Ran was surprised.
"Someone told me," Ji Zhiyuan said.
Wei Ran was about to speak when he suddenly moved in front of Ji Zhiyuan and was on guard.
Ji Zhiyuan saw two people coming down from the ruins. One of them cupped his fists and smiled. "I am Su Xiaojian. I accidentally overheard your conversation just now and thought that you might be my disciple, Yan Li, who invited you to help?"
"I guess so," she said.
"So it's Xiaojian, Peak Lord." Wei Ran cupped his hands and bowed.
"Oh, it's Lord Wei. It's been a long time." Su Xiaojian was shocked. He quickly clenched his fists and said, "I released my divine sense just now to search for Li Xueyi's whereabouts, but I did not recognize you."
"Li Xueyi?" Wei Ran was surprised.
"I am ashamed. Little Jiu and I joined hands, but she still escaped," Su Xiaojian said with a bitter smile.
Wei Ran had long noticed the dead silence on the street. It turned out that there had been a huge battle. It seemed that many people were affected. However, this area was too small for a level-seven super expert. He bowed deeply to Su Xiaojian. "Xiaojian, the Peak Lord is kind. I thank you on behalf of the people."
"I dare not," Su Xiaojian said. Then, he pointed at Feng Jiu and said, "I forgot to introduce you. This is the eldest disciple of my sect master's brother, Guan Shanhai. I believe you have all heard of him. His name is Feng Jiu."
"Lord Wei." Feng Jiu bowed. "I have often heard Junior Brother Wei Shu mention that you are his most respected uncle."
"That bastard. He did not cause trouble for the people of the Court Of Sword, did he?" Wei Ran smiled.
"Junior Brother Wei Shu is very successful. He is now the top disciple of Imperial Sword Peak," Feng Jiu said.
Wei Ran nodded and said cheerfully, "He mentioned it in the letter home. I thought it was exaggerated, but it is not." He suddenly realized that he had left his master at the side, and hurriedly said, "Small Sword Summit Master, little friend Feng, the person beside me is the Origin Town ….. the previous leader, who is now the King of Chang Prefecture, she is also a disciple of Lotus Constellation Rouge Mountain."
"Ji Zhiyuan?" Su Xiaojian looked at Ji Zhiyuan with a smile.
"Greetings, Xiaojian, Peak Lord." Ji Zhiyuan bowed.
"The Nine Greetings are of the same branch. I have neglected your identity as the King of Changzhou and accepted your bow." Su Xiaojian said with a smile, "But there is no need for it in the future. I have heard some stories about you and Yan Li. I do not know much, but seeing you here, I am really happy for Yan Li. "
Ji Zhiyuan was slightly touched, but he did not say anything.
Su Xiaojian did not care. He was about to continue speaking when he suddenly felt something. He looked in a direction and saw a person covered in blood running over in fear. "Peak Lord Su, is Peak Lord Su here? Please save the Governor, please save the Governor …"
"You are?" He quickly went to greet him. When he saw that it was Protector Long Qing, his heart sank.
"The Governor's Office … has been occupied by the Demon Clan …" The soldier used his last breath to say, "Li Xieyi sent me to find you. He said … uh … said if you do not go … he will kill … the Governor's … entire family …" He fell to the ground and died.
"Li Xieyi!" Su Xiaojian's pupils suddenly contracted. But he quickly controlled his emotions and squatted down to close the soldier's eyes. He stood up and said, "Both of you, please excuse me. Little Nine, let's go! "
After that, he turned into a sword light and took Feng Jiu away.
"My Lord, what do we do now?" Wei Ran asked.
"Who is this' Governor '?" Ji Zhiyuan asked.
Wei Ran said, "The Governor is unique to Protector Long Qing. He is a general who leads tens of thousands of troops. There are many Governors in Protector Long Qing. This person should be talking about Su Mutang. "
"What is the relationship between Su Mutang and Su Xiaojian?" Ji Zhiyuan asked.
Wei Ran said, "They are family friends, but closer than ordinary family friends. Su Mutang has a daughter called Su Xiaorong. She is now the Disciplinary Elder of Cangjian Peak. She was betrothed to Su Xiaojian before they were born. Although they did not hold a wedding like mortals because they entered the Court Of Sword, Su Mutang is undoubtedly Su Xiaojian's father-in-law. "
"What is Su Mutang's character like?" Ji Zhiyuan asked.
Wei Ran said, "Upright and outspoken, loyal and courageous. The Su Family is full of martyrs. His grandfather and great-grandfather died on the battlefield for the imperial court. Oh yes, the former Super Arrester we met that day is Su Mutang's father-in-law. "
"Then we can't just stand by and watch. Let's go. You lead the way," Ji Zhiyuan said.
"Yes!" Wei Ran led the way without hesitation.
…
The blood cloud rushed over. Yan Li's instinct told him that he must not touch it after losing the upper hand. He kicked hard and his body shot toward the wall. He stood on the wall, watching the blood cloud turn around in midair, still rushing toward him. By this time he was ready. 'Qiang, qiang' he pulled out his saber from the cliff and chopped down from the top of his head.
The blood cloud split in the middle and became two balls. They hit the wall and created two big holes. Accompanied by a strong corrosive sound, two big holes appeared in the thick wall that led outside the palace.
"This is your technique?" Yan Li couldn't help but take two steps back.
"When I was still a Soul Shadow, I relied on this to survive. What do you think?"
Red Shirt appeared in the hazy blood fog. However, it was completely different from Li Hongzhuang's coldness. There seemed to be a hint of hysterical madness hidden in it.
Yan Li was all too familiar with it. This was a gaze that struggled to survive. However, it was different. It was more ambitious than usual. It wanted to live with dignity and was not willing to drift.
He was very suspicious that such a change in human nature would appear on an artifact. "Soul Shadow? What Soul Shadow? "
"You don't know about Soul Shadows!" Red Shirt sneered, followed by anger. "Are you mocking me?"
Yan Li deduced that it was most likely some clan from the Devil World that was captured by Li Xueyi and refined into its current form. "What does it matter whether I have it or not? If you live on stubbornly and resolutely, the contempt of others won't affect you at all. On the contrary, it will be the most taboo for you. Don't you know that the most taboo for you is your greatest weakness?"
"You know my biggest weakness. It's a good time to kill you!"
Red Shirt leaped. The blood cloud condensed into a blood blade on the back of her hand. In the blink of an eye, she had already slashed out a dozen times. Most of them were thin blades with thick blood clouds. It would not feel good to touch them.
With a thought, Yan Li's entire body surged with sword Qi. The Sword Mound suddenly appeared.
However, the blood blades seemed to be able to restrain the Law Domain. The Sword Mound was smashed into pieces.
This was the first time. He was shocked. Just as he was about to retreat, the blood blades were already in front of him. He gritted his teeth and used the Leaving Cliff to block.
An explosion rang out in response, and a pervasive bloody mist spread out, occupying the entire space.
He felt a tremendous force coming at him. Even the Hidden Sword Technique could not completely block it. He flew backward and crashed into the courtyard. He could not care about his internal injuries. The blood cloud had a strong corrosive power. Fortunately, his vital energy could still block it. He panted on the ground, then leaped with all his might and escaped from the other side of the wall.
"Don't even think about escaping!"
