The night in the Qinling Mountains is hot and windless. If you are on Huocang Mountain at this time, you will experience the feeling of being in a furnace.
The battle between the sword wizard and the sword cultivator in the past few days, the roar of sword energy and thunder and fire, and the fight between the two divine beasts, all contributed to the lifeless silence here after the sword cultivator retreated for more than a hundred miles - even A night bug also crawled a hundred miles away and hid.
Wan'er came to the empty Xiaoyang Shenzong Mountain Gate silently. She endured the stench of the corpses all around and the scorching heat wave, and looked at the roof of the Huozhao Hall
The night sky was so clear after the heavy rain. The oval moon hung high in the night sky, emitting a hazy moonlight and shining on a man who stood on the roof of Huozhao Hall and looked to the east. Beside him, there was a meter of brighter and brighter moonlight shining on his melancholic side face, and stars twinkling on his forehead. Is that yearning?
Wan'er floated up and looked at this man from behind. This man who grew up with her childhood sweetheart in Mengze, and who seemed to have taken his heart with him after leaving her It's just that this man has changed a lot recently. Weird, she has become thoughtful. Wan'er can feel why the man who was so anxious when he couldn't see her the day before only saw her once after stepping through Kaiyang Pass and entering the Central Plains. Moreover, He left her when she needed support the most.
Maybe it was needed for the war, maybe he knew that she was not in any danger under the protection of the turtle maybe Wan'er had found too many "maybe" excuses for Diller to comfort herself, but under the sword cultivator's army, After retreating a hundred miles, the sword wizard wanted to keep the same pace as the pack turtle, so he took some time off. Diller could no longer remember to see Wan'er, so Wan'er had no choice but to come see him.
"Brother Diller, are you thinking about her?"
"AhSister Wan'er, why are you here?" Diller, who was lost in thought, turned around and was startled by Wan'er's sudden appearance.
"I mean, are you thinking about her?" Wan'er persisted as if she was interrogating an insignificant matter, with a faint smile on her face. Under the diffraction of the moonlight emitted by Yue Meng, she Yan Ran's smile makes her look even more charming and charming.
"Who else could Ithink about" Wan'er asked such an abrupt but heart-wrenching question, which made Diller a little confused.
"I know that you are missing someone, a woman, but it's not me." Wan'er always had such an intoxicating smile on her face, but she said the last word with sadness in her tone.
"That's not the kind of sister Wan'er is" Diller had never seen Wan'er like this, but he knew that Wan'er was very angry.
"If you are thinking about me, why don't you go see me? Now, even I can't find a reason for you not to go see me, so I came to see you." Wan'er said and flew down , a drop of cold tears fell on the hot roof, turning into mist in an instant.
Diller stupidly kept turning around in the south where Wan'er was leaving, and in the east where the woman holding the flaming phoenix existed. It seemed that he didn't know whether he should go to the east or the south, but in the end, his eyes stopped in the south. But my heart stopped in the south.

On the same night, the lights on the top of Huaiyang Tucheng were brightly lit. Outside the city, pairs of sword cultivators, under the unified dispatch of Bi Ning, took advantage of the darkness to head towards the Qinling Mountains again. Farther away, sword wizards rode on Qinling Mountains. The sky crane dropped clouds of blue thunder fire, igniting the mountain forest and illuminating the entire mountainous area as bright as day. Occasionally, a few sky cranes or snake-headed doves would carry sword wizards to Huaiyang Tucheng and cruise around in the sky. After the woman entered Huaiyang Tucheng and shot and killed more than a dozen sword wizards' mounts, the bombing of Huaiyang Tucheng became synonymous with death in the eyes of sword wizards.
Yun Chen stood quietly in the shadow of a big tree outside Huaiyang Tucheng. He lowered his eyes and frowned, seeming to be thinking about something. A hundred white cats quietly crawled over and walked half a circle around Yun Chen. He turned around and glanced behind him with a resentful look, then immediately spread out and ran away without a trace.
Then Yunchen¡¯s slender left hand was tightly grasped by a delicate and small hand, ¡°Brother Xinchen, it¡¯s really convenient to use Da Ling¡¯er to find someone.¡±
The next moment, Yun Chen's frown relaxed, and a comfortable smile appeared on his lips. He pulled Yun Jing into his arms, lowered his head and took a sip of the fragrance on her head, and said gently: "You should Go to sleep, if Yun Rong can't see you later, he will also send Da Ling'er to find you."
After hearing this, Yun Jing knocked her forehead in annoyance. She regretted letting Da Linger slip away like this. "Brother Xinchen, is Senior Sister Yunxue really alive? Is Meng Xueer from Cidu Shen Sect really my Senior Sister Yunxue?" After Yun Chen came back this time, it was difficult for Yun Jing to be alone with Yun Chen. Even though he gave Yun Xue the opportunity for Yun Chen, he was still full of questions and dared not ask them in public.
Yun Chen just nodded slightly, "In front of Master and Senior Sister, you must have worked very hard to keep this secret." Yun Chen knew it too well.Quietly, she is a standard action person, she can do whatever she thinks, she can say whatever she thinks, and she can't hide any secrets.
"I almost told the truth a few times. Fortunately, Nishang distracted me. But when will we bring Senior Sister Yunxue back? I miss her so much. Besides, she is still with that witch Laojun. How can you rest assured? Come on?" Yun Jing opened her big eyes, facing Yun Chen, for the first time she didn't act coquettishly, but her eyes were full of pleading. Everyone at Wangyue Peak is a sister. If anyone dreams about Yunxue, they will burst into tears the next day. They love Yunxue so much.
"Jing'er, wait a little longer and be patient. You have to believe that if Yun Xue is willing to come with me, no matter when I first join Cidu Divine Sect or when I leave at the end, she will go with me. But she hides, hides The love is so deep, there must be a reason why she can't leave." Two people in love can understand each other with just one eye contact, no matter how long they have been apart.
"But what if Laojun finds out that she let you go on purpose?" Yun Jing was still worried.
"Jing'er, I, Di Yunchen, have never believed in prayer in my life, but for Yun Xue, I can only pray that she will be safe until the day I pick her up."
Yun Jing looked at Yun Chen's helpless look for the first time, and could only hug him tightly. In this rare moment of solitude, she did not beg Yun Chen to hunt the divine sword Yuemeng for her, but just begged Yun Chen to bring her back. Senior Sister Yunxue
Compared with the invasion of the Sword Wizard, which caused panic in the Central Plains, the Northeast Region, far away from the battlefield, was relatively quiet. Even if the Sword Wizard captured the entire Southwest Region, if he wanted to set foot in the Northeast Region, he would have to continue to capture at least the other three regions. This is only possible in one place. At least now, Cidu Shenzong has enough time to rectify the internal situation without worrying about the sword wizard's attack.
"As you expected, Di Yunchen did go to the southwest. I just got the news that he has led his people to retreat to Huaiyang. In this way, the move we made in advance will be useful." Bo Xin held a superstitious letter in his hand, proudly reported.
"Hmph, people who always scheme against others will eventually be schemed against by others." Lao Jun snorted coldly and continued: "Send another pavilion elder and a gray man down the mountain and rush to the southwest. On the day of Di Yunchen's burial, by the way Bi Ning has also been taken care of. When the time comes, you and Xue'er will rush to the southwest in person. I don't think anyone will dare not to come back even if Divine Sword Tianxuan is here."
"Yes, I will arrange it right away."
After Bo Xin bowed and exited the Elder Pavilion, the old man looked at Meng Xueer beside him: "Is there still no way to control the divine sword Tianxuan?"
"I'm ashamed, my disciple. I haven't been able to figure it out. It might be faster if I have you, Master, try to recover it." Meng Xueer said, taking a step forward and grabbing the divine sword that had never left Di Yunchen's hands. Tianxuan handed it to Laojun.
There was a burning light in Lao Jun's eyes for a moment, but she did not reach out to take it, "If I could regain the Divine Sword Tianxuan, it belonged to me decades ago. I heard that Huang Kun of the Divine Sword Sect has already After recovering the Divine Sword Tiangang, I will send a message to the Divine Sword Sect and ask them for some details to help you recover the Divine Sword Tianxuan."
"Thank you, Master." After Yun Xue said that, the old man gave some pointers on some cultivation matters before letting her go.
When Yun Xue returned to Mengge, she immediately summoned Hong Changqing, Shi Yang, and Shi Jian to discuss matters behind closed doors. When Yun Xue told Lao Jun that he was plotting against Yun Chen, Shi Yang immediately became anxious, "How about I go down the mountain overnight and rush to the southwest? It will be too late."
Although the three of them have publicly severed their ties with Di Yunchen, their every move is still under the surveillance of the Elder Pavilion. Naturally, they cannot establish private contact using hawks and doves. If anything happens, Di Yunchen will send a white cat to sneak up the mountain. After notifying them, they were unable to contact Di Yunchen.
"Don't panic, can Southwest arrive in a few days? The question is, who is sent by Laojun to lurk in Huaiyang to deal with His Highness" Shi Jian, who was relatively calm, said and looked at Yun Xue. Cidu Shen Sect is currently They can't access the more confidential personnel deployment, but Yun Xue can.
"In order to prevent accidents, Laojun has recently packed up the Ge Lao and Huiyi around the Twin Peaks. No one has come down the mountain?" Yun Xue was also puzzled, where did Laojun arrange the manpower. "
"Since no one is coming down the mountain, is it possible that Laojun is deliberately testing you." Hong Changqing, who had been silent until now, reminded.
Yun Xue is not good at trying to figure out people's thoughts. Now after listening to Hong Changqing's analysis, she also feels that it makes sense, but she can't let go of Yun Chen's safety. After thinking about it, she said to Shi Yang: "You go down the mountain tomorrow. Go, people from the west should have arrived, tell them that there may be two targets coming down the mountain in the near future, and also, see if there is any channel through which they can continue to reach Yunchen, even if they can contact the Yuncheng clan to relay the message."
The moonlight was deep, and a man wearing ragged cassocks and holding a wooden fish came to Changning Town.?The wandering monk who kept chatting When he opened an inn, his peaceful and kind face, polite and gentle words helped him to easily become a vegetarian in Changning town late at night.
"Excuse me, Master, where are you going?" The waiter at the almshouse asked kindly.
"You Zang" Monk You Fang cherished his words like gold, clasped his hands and lowered his head slightly, looking up at the Twin Peaks shrouded in night, his eyes reserved and sharp, and answered the waiter's second question:
