Jiangcheng Airport Terminal, a plane just landed. [com]
Daoji stood outside the airport passage and kept rubbing his hands to vent the tension in his heart. The master of Menzhong who brought Lingyun to Jiangcheng this time is the great elder of the Immortal Men, one person below ten thousand. In addition, there are two elders of Meng who teach martial arts, one is his master Sangda, and Lingyun¡¯s Master Wu Lin.
"Senior Brother, why are you so nervous?" Liu Yan was puzzled and carefully tugged on Dao Ji's sleeve.
Dao Ji breathed out softly and replied in a low voice, "I'm a little nervous. In addition to Lingyun's matter, the Great Elder has another thing for us to do this time. If we can pass the assessment, we will be able to do it." The bird has flown away."
"Ah, what kind of assessment? Why haven't I heard you talk about it?" Liu Yan asked in surprise. She and Dao Ji had merged and were flying together all day long. There was going to be such a big thing as an assessment in the school, but he actually kept it secret from himself. ?
Dao Ji shook his head and advised softly, "Master just told me about this matter yesterday and told me not to tell it outside. Everyone in this assessment has to go through it, and the content and cultivation of the assessment only account for a part of it. , the master didn¡¯t say anything more. So I won¡¯t tell you for the time being, to save you the trouble of thinking.¡±
"Actually, it's not necessarily a good thing to know in advance. You see, I'm feeling uneasy now and I'm at a loss. It's really better not to know." Dao Ji sighed. He was very concerned about the results of this assessment, because Master Sangda He hinted that this assessment will determine whether he can enter the core of Immortal Men and obtain higher-level skills.
How could Dao Ji not be disturbed? Among the disciples of this generation, Lingyun had the highest cultivation level. When Lingyun was injured, he was only at the three extremes of cultivation. At that time, the cultivation levels of the current generation disciples of the three major sects were uneven, but the highest level of cultivation was only three levels, and none of them could obtain the cultivation techniques above level four. If he can pass the test this time, he may be the number one disciple of this generation among the three major sects.
The airport radio broadcast announcements in Chinese and English over and over again. Daoji listened absently and looked directly at the entrance of the passage. People from the division had already arrived.
Not long after the broadcast, an old man with white hair and a childlike face appeared in the sight of Dao Ji and Liu Yan. The old man was wearing a red gown, with a snow-white beard that set off his rosy face, and he looked very energetic. Behind the old man, a girl with a face as beautiful as ice and snow walked with precise steps. Her movements were very standard, but she looked indescribably uncomfortable, like a robot. Every step she took and even every swing of her arms were not natural swings, but the kind of rigidity controlled by a computer.
Liu Yanhong opened her eyes slightly, looking at the stunned Ling Yun in surprise, how could the fifth senior sister, who was so stunned, be reduced to such a situation?
Anyone can see that Ling Yun, who was once the most outstanding disciple of the three major sects and was admired by most of the junior brothers and sisters, really does not look like a real person at this moment, but is just a mechanical puppet.
Behind Lingyun, one on the left and one on the right are two stern-faced middle-aged men. Sang Da was born without a smile, while Wu Lin could not smile at this time. The disciple who he once thought would be of great use and bring him great benefits suddenly turned into a hot potato. How could he possibly laugh?
"I've met the great elder, I've met the master, I've met the uncle." Dao Ji and Liu Yan saluted together, but their names were slightly different. Liu Yan's master was not Sang Da, but another member of his family. A nvxing elder. Her master was recruited by the m¨¦n a few years ago. From that time on, all the disciples in the m¨¦n were under the control of Sanda Wulin.
"Well, Dao Ji has made a lot of progress." The elder stroked his beard and looked at Dao Ji and Liu Yan up and down. "Liu Yan is not bad either."
this¡¡
Daoji Liu Yan was stunned on the spot. Is the Great Elder praising himself or scolding himself? This should be meant as a compliment, but the Great Elder, who has never been kind to this generation of disciples, why did he suddenly change his character today?
This is indeed a strange thing. Whenever the great elder sees the disciples of this generation of immortal men, he always looks straight at them and pretends not to see them. Even when the disciples salute, there is no reaction at all. ~~
!-
Generations of disciples have always been as scary as a mouse seeing a cat when they see the Great Elder. Who would have thought that the Great Elder today would actually praise others, and he would even praise two people?
"Dao Ji, how is Jiangcheng during this time?" the great elder asked with a smile. He was almost not the same person as the former great elder who looked at him as if he were seeing air.
Daoji understood what the great elder meant by saying "it's okay" and quickly replied, "Everything is fine, it's just"
¡°We¡¯ll talk about this later, get in the car first, I¡¯m olderYes, I can't help but toss. "The great elder laughed and interrupted Dao Ji's words.
"Yes, please come with me, Great Elder and Master Master." Dao Ji quickly took the luggage from the Master's hand, glanced at Ling Yun, who had a dull expression, and quickened his pace to lead the way, and the group hurriedly walked out of the airport.
After entering June, the first half of the month did have some good weather with bright sunshine, but as July approached, it started to rain more. It rained heavily again last night. The summer rain and the strong wind blew the shrubs in the yard into a mess.
Wang Junjie crossed his legs, holding a cup of tea, leaning on the cool bamboo chair, watching a few young warriors taking care of the slanting small trees and green bamboos in the courtyard. It's strange to say that since Zhuoya brought people to live in this yard, there are no insects in this yard, whether they are moths or mosquitoes, they have all disappeared. Classmate Wang Junjie looked around curiously, trying to catch those buzzing and annoying things, but after scanning with his spiritual power, he discovered that there was a transparent spiritual net covering the entire courtyard, which blocked all tangible and qualitative dust. Not to mention those flying insects.
"Zhuo Ya, can I trust you?" Wang Junjie suddenly asked, this question was very abrupt.
Zhuo Ya held the teacup in both hands, her body shook slightly, and she raised her head to look at the man with a casual expression, "Of course, I am worthy of your trust."
"Trust needs time to be tested. I want to try from today on whether we can truly trust each other." Wang Junjie said with unfinished content, as if he was nostalgic for the lingering fragrance of tea, and seemed to give it to the two of them. Make an annotation on the relationship between people.
"Zhuo Ya trusts His Highness, and there is no need to test this. But Zhuo Ya is very happy that His Highness is willing to accept it, and you finally no longer doubt Zhuo Ya's loyalty."
"Loyalty? The so-called loyalty is just that the price of betrayal is not high enough, is it?" Wang Junjie replied calmly.
"No, that's just a human proverb, and it does not apply to the nobility of the universe. Human beings without faith always put interests first. They don't know that the cornerstone of a society is loyalty and trust. Interests may be able to survive in a short time. It brings happiness to the soul, but in the end it only brings empty boredom. But this cannot be blamed on them. After all, human life is too short, so short that there is no time to look up at the stars or consider the meaning of life. ." Zhuo Ya said with a sigh, looking up at the thick clouds and mist in the sky. There was no sunshine in the morning after the rain, and the water vapor was very thick in the gloomy sky.
"Looking up at the stars" Wang Junjie also raised his head and stared blankly at the unpredictable clouds in the sky. He was silent for a while and then said, "Most of the time, I don't look at the deep universe, because looking at the vast universe, I will feel my own insignificance. All our splendid glory and everything are nothing to mention in the vast universe. The Milky Way or the fairy constellation are just dust in the universe. As tiny particles in the dust, If we are ignored, what qualifications do we have to talk about the meaning of life?¡±
"From birth to death, things that we think are of extraordinary significance are actually meaningless. Do you think anyone is willing to care about the life and death of a certain microorganism among the millions of microorganisms on a grain of sand?" Wang Junjie's mouth curled up a little. With a wry smile, talking about life compared to the universe is always a dead end.
"To the universe, we are not important; but to us, we are important, and this is enough." Zhuo Ya looked at Wang Junjie strangely. The man's emotion just now made her feel like she couldn't say no. The smell comes out.
"Stop talking about this kind of thing. Talking about this is just a waste of life." Wang Junjie laughed, staring at the brown-haired Valkyrie hovering at the top of the bamboo forest, carefully trimming the bamboo leaves with scissors. The gentle breeze lifted the thin gauze robe on her body, revealing her looming snow-white skin. Each of the Valkyries of the Odin tribe has a good appearance, and their figures are extremely beautiful, which is a feast for the eyes.
"Let's get down to business. People from the Sharun tribe will be here today." Wang Junjie stretched out his arms and straightened up lazily. "Zhuo Ya, have you had any dealings with the Zerg Mother Queen?"
"No, Your Highness." Zhuo Ya's face shape always reminds people of the word "elegant", which matches her name very well.
"oh."
Wang Junjie didn¡¯t feel surprised at all when he got an expected answer. These races that came to Earth must have never seen the terror of the Zerg Mother Queen. If they had seen it, they would definitely not dare to do such a thing as cultivating the Zerg Mother Queen. The power of the Zerg Mother Queen after reaching adulthood is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. They can change their body shape at will, and even change the structure of their own bodies. They have spiritual power up to level nine and seem to have the ability for the rest of their lives to control all known races. The thoughts of cultivators below level seven.
Wang Junjie has a profound memory in his memory. A Zerg Mother Queen easily controlledIn order to attack the 100,000 troops on the Zerg planet, they turned their guns to fire at friendly forces, resulting in the destruction of an entire squadron. In the end, the empire mobilized dozens of seventh-level masters, and under the cover of thousands of elite soldiers wearing shielding spiritual power control suits, they killed the Zerg Queen.
In Wang Junjie¡¯s memory, it was the most costly war after the formal establishment of the Fourth Cantilever Empire. Just to eliminate a newly adult queen, more than half of the masters in the northern military region of the empire were killed. That was already seven thousand years later, after mankind's research on spiritual power had made earth-shaking progress. If it were the current level of spiritual research, it was a big question whether the Zerg Mother Queen could be eliminated.
"Zhuo Ya, I need to interrogate the Zerg test subject of the Sharun tribe later. I need you to use your spiritual power to shield the entire courtyard.
"If it is shielded by spiritual power, of course there is no problem." Zhuo Ya nodded solemnly. She could know the importance of this matter from Wang Junjie's tone.
"That's good, this matter is very important." Wang Junjie frowned in deep thought, wondering whether Lingyun could give him the answer he wanted.
Star Obsidian, Lingyun may be the last chance to make a breakthrough. He has asked Xuan Su and Zhuo Ya, but they know nothing about Star Obsidian. It is normal for the Lyran tribe in the east and the Odin tribe in the west, who are second only to the clan leader, to know nothing about obsidian, because it has no effect on these races. If it must be said to be useful, then it is only for ornamental purposes at most, and it can only be something that nvxings of all races like to wear, similar to the diamonds that nvxings on earth love.
¡°They didn¡¯t know it, which proves that the obsidian was not brought to the earth by space immigrants. So, where do these magical stones come from? It is impossible to conjure them out of thin air. You must know that the only planet in the Milky Way that can produce obsidian is dozens of light-years away from the earth.
"Your Highness, the Sharon people are here. Do you want Zhuo Ya to avoid them first?" Zhuo Ya's expression moved slightly, she turned around and asked softly.
Wang Junjie lowered his head and thought for a while, then waved his hand, "No, you go to the door and pick them up for me. Everyone knows that you are mine, so there is no need to be so secretive."
"Well, Zhuo Ya understands."
Standing up, lowering her head and answering softly, Zhuo Ya walked towards the door of the courtyard. Several Valkyries quickly put down all kinds of tools in their hands and followed, guarding their master in the middle.
Six people walked slowly along the avenue under the shade of trees. Daoji and Liu Yan led the way. The elder stood back and listened to the two men explaining the scenery of Yufeng Villa and what Jiangcheng had to offer. Places of interest. Lingyun moved forward mechanically like a puppet. The two elders of Xianmen, Sangda and Wulin, followed behind her on the left and right, walking at the same frequency as her steps.
"Great Elder, in front of you is Courtyard No. 7." Dao Ji pointed at the tall courtyard wall in front of which was covered with green vines.
The Great Elder smiled and nodded slightly. In fact, he knew that this was Courtyard No. 7, where His Highness Alma lived, without Daoji's introduction. In fact, this is not his first time here, and he even knows more than Dao Ji and Liu Yan who are acting as commentators. For example, the people in No. 7 Courtyard are Geofine and Alma from the Odin tribe. His Highness rarely stays here.
A group of people were still thirty or forty meters away from the courtyard door. Dao Ji quickened his pace and was about to go forward and knock on the door. Unexpectedly, the courtyard door suddenly opened inwards and several women walked out.
Daoji felt his eyes light up. A group of women wearing tulle of various colors were surrounding a woman wearing a light-colored robe. Every woman around them was stunningly beautiful, but when compared with the one in the middle, they immediately became different. Became the green leaves next to the red flowers.
The blond hair that is brighter than the sun falls straight down, the skin as smooth as cow's milk seems to break open with the slightest touch, the face is so beautiful that it is unreal, and every smile is so charming. Daoji only glanced at her and quickly lowered his head. He was really worried that if he looked at her a few more times, he would fall in love with that woman uncontrollably.
¡°Xia Tian feels extremely honored to be able to see Geofine again.¡± The Great Elder of the Sharun Tribe saluted from afar. Behind him, the other two elders of the Xia Lun tribe also bowed and saluted at the same time.
"Xia Tianhow long ago did we meet?" Zhuo Ya looked at Xia Tian who was saluting, but her attention was on Ling Yun, who looked like a puppet. There is a coldness in Lingyun's body that can freeze to the bone. The higher the spiritual power, the heavier the cold she feels.
"Three thousand and seven hundred years ago, Xia Tian was lucky enough to attend a gathering of eight tribes. At that time, he was lucky enough to see the Holy Lady." The majesty of the great elder of the Xia Lun tribe completely disappeared in front of Zhuo Ya. The reputation and status of Geofine of the Odin clan in the Morning Star Empire are no less than those of any duke who has conquered territories and broken up territories.A small elder of the Xialun tribe is not worth mentioning in front of her.
"Oh~" Zhuo Ya nodded lightly and looked behind the great elder of the Xia Lun tribe. "Is that the Lingyun that His Highness wants to see? She has a strong aura of destruction."
The Great Elder of the Sharun Tribe forced a smile, "The Holy Lady is indeed the master of the empire's spiritual power. She can see through it at a glance. Our tribe imposed all the restrictions on her and barely suppressed her soul."
"Well, please bring her in, His Highness wants to see you." Zhuo Ya left a word and turned around without saying more.
The Great Elder¡¯s eyebrows twitched, and his face showed a bit of disdain, and then it turned back to the smiling face, ¡°You guys wait behind the door, I¡¯ll take Lingyun in.¡±
Sanda and Wu Lin lowered their hands and remained silent. Daoji Liu Yan quickly responded, "Yes, elder."
Daoji and Liu Yan couldn't understand a word of the conversation just now. They heard that strange and awkward language more than once or twice. Each time, they were so confused that they couldn't understand what was being said. They could only judge from the expressions of both parties in the conversation. What exactly were they talking about.
The woman just now was not simple, Daoji could only tell this. How can it be so simple for a person who can make the Great Elder, who is second only to the Immortal Men and the Palm Men, take the lead in saluting and not return the salute at all?
After the great elder said a word of greeting, he suddenly coughed, stretched out his right leg first, and then landed on the ground, his steps becoming a little strange. Daoji's eyes froze, and he suddenly discovered that at the moment when the great elder took a step, Lingyun also took a step with her right foot. The pace was exactly the same as that of the great elder in front, without any deviation.
This is¡¡
Soul control
Daoji suddenly felt horrified. What secret technique had been cast on Lingyun? Has his soul been imprisoned?
No wonder she always felt that her pace was very strange when walking forward, as if she was following the footsteps of a lifeless puppet. It turned out that she had indeed turned into a puppet, a puppet that could only walk by being held up by strings.
A chill rose from his tailbone, and Daoji's whole body froze in an instant. The impact of this strange scene on him was indescribable. How could Ling Yun, who was loved so much by the elders among her teachers, turn into such a body without soul, a body without soul, and a walking corpse?
What¡¯s the point of ou¡¯s existence?
Why did Lingyun end up like this? Even if she is so favored, she will end up like this. Will she accidentally end up like this in the future?
Daoji's body couldn't help but tremble slightly, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.
