Seven thousand miles northeast of Jiancheng, at the end of the world, an ordinary-looking man sat silently, looking at the chaotic fog sea three thousand meters below the mainland, waiting silently.
The man appeared to be in his thirties, without any special place, sitting there motionless.
He is Mu Bai, the sword of the barren city.
Beyond the end of the land, nothing can be seen anymore. Only when you look down can you see the endless sea of fog under three thousand feet.
This is the face of the world. If Ning Chen is here, he will definitely be shocked and unable to tell, because this is completely different from the world in his heart, and this world has an end.
Mu Bai is waiting, waiting for the sea of chaotic fog to consolidate. Chaos is invisible. If it condenses, it is the best material for military training in the world.
Since the sword in the world is easy to break, then find the material outside the world to forge the sword.
"uncle"
Mu Chengxue came over, looked at the figure at the end of the world, and said respectfully.
"You shouldn't be here, you still have unfinished business in this world," Mu Bai said lightly without looking back.
"I have already repaid the favor owed to the deserted city, and now I have no more worries," Mu Chengxue said.
"There is still love, you haven't paid it back, go back"
The words fell, the situation in the world changed, and the sword qi took Mu Chengxue out of the end of the world, and it didn't dissipate until thousands of miles away.
"Forgetting doesn't mean seeing through. Your Tao is in the world, not here. In the future, you don't need to come again."
The last voice reverberated between heaven and earth, a look of confusion flashed in Mu Chengxue's eyes, did she forget something important, and if it was important, why did she forget it.
Netherworld, Ning Chen looked at the far east, stood silently, and didn't move for a long time.
Is she okay
The love didn't start, it went deep, and there was no reason, when he found out, she had forgotten.
An hour later, the figure in the underworld disappeared, sat in the ghost sedan chair, and went south.
The love between children and children always makes people unable to help but lose themselves. He still has things to do, so he can't be distracted.
The ghost sedan headed south, and in a flash, half an hour later, it landed outside the palace.
Ning Chen put away the ghost sedan chair and walked towards the palace step by step.
When the guard guarding the gate saw Ning Chen's appearance, he immediately stepped aside and saluted respectfully.
"Wuhou"
One after another figure, following Ning Chen's forward pace, knelt down one by one, and continued to the outside of Tianyu Hall.
Long Wei knelt down and knelt down, kneeling to their marquis, with a calm and respectful expression.
In the big summer, perhaps only the Long Wei in front of him has always firmly believed in their Hou.
Xia Mingri was still in the Hall of Heavenly Mandate, just like the Emperor Xia of the past, reviewing the memorials day and night.
In the thousand years of the summer, except for Xia Rui, all the Xia emperors of all dynasties can be said to be Ming Jun, which has to be said to be a miracle.
Just before Xia Rui went through the drastic changes, he was also a hard-working monarch, but unfortunately, he became a tyrant because of suspicion and suspicion.
Xia Mingri has been on the throne for a short time, and in troubled times, he has shown a good bearing so far. However, there are not a few kings who can share weal and woe but cannot share wealth. Whether Xia Mingri is such a person, no one knows.
Ning Chen didn't care about this. At the beginning of the four princes of Da Xia, apart from Xia Ziyi, the most powerful prince was actually the third prince. However, it was not because he had talent that he would be suitable for the position of Emperor Xia.
Xia Yanwu is too confident, like the former Xia Rui, always thinking that everything can be in his own hands, the only difference is that Xia Yanwu is more capable.
Therefore, in the face of Fan Lingyue's win, he would agree without hesitation.
Xia Mingri is the exact opposite. Compared with the third prince, Xia Mingri is better at forbearance and more cautious. Of course, it was also forced by the situation at that time, so he couldn't do it.
In the past, Xia Yanwu might have been a better candidate for Emperor Xia, but now, in the turbulent times, there is still one Fan Lingyue alive in the world, and Xia Yanwu's conceit will become a disaster for Da Xia.
In the Hall of Heavenly Mandate, Ning Chen and Xia Mingri talked for a long time. The guards and eunuchs in front of the hall were all removed, and no one knew what the two talked about.
Two hours later, Ning Chen left and headed north.
The ghost sedan drove seven hundred miles away, and a beautiful shadow passed by at the same time, the white clothes surpassed the snow, and the perfect face did not have a trace of emotion, just like the exiled fairy above the nine heavens.
"Twilight Snow"
After Ning Chen sensed the familiar aura in front of him, he stopped the ghost sedan and made way out of the way.
If this is just a chance encounter, consider it ignorant.
He was waiting for her to leave, but unfortunately, Mu Chengxue also stopped.
Eyes facing each other, through the curtain of the ghost sedan chair, the person who once protected life and death has now become the most familiar stranger.
The indifferent gaze, still without the slightest turbulence, the scabbed wound in Ning Chen's heart was torn apart again, in addition to pain, it was still pain.
"Girl, please get out of the way." Ning Chen endured the pain in his heart and said.
"Return the scroll of life, I'll let you live," Mu Chengxue said lightly.
"Impossible," Ning Chen refused without hesitation.
He can not want the scroll of the earth, he can give up the scroll of the sky, only the scroll of life is impossible.
If he paid it back, then there would really be nothing between him and her.
Getting a negative answer, Mu Chengxue moved, Chengying unsheathed, and transformed into the fastest shadow in the world, reaching the front of the sedan in an instant.
The ghost sedan chair, which is one zhang long and wide, has become the most cruel battlefield.
The ink sword came out with a bang, blocking the Chengying sword, the two swords collided, the aftermath swayed, and the ghost sedan suddenly dissipated.
Ning Chen took three steps back and fell slightly behind.
"Nine-Rank Peak" Mu Chengxue flashed a strange color in his eyes, and his heart trembled slightly. It was the first time we met in a barren city, and the talent in front of him was only the sixth-rank acquired day. He didn't expect that after only half a year, he had already reached the realm of reaching the sky. 's peak.
"Girl, please get out of the way" Ning Chen said again with a complicated expression.
There was no response, only the light of the sword was like electricity, and those who forgot the past had a cold light on the sword, ruthless and heartless.
Ning Chen sighed softly and said no more, the ink sword condensed frost, and the wind and snow opened the way.
The confrontation between swords and swords is fast or fast. Mu Chengxue has a scroll, and the speed is unparalleled in the world, so fast that he can't even see the afterimage.
The ink sword in Ning Chen's hand, nine points offensive, one point defensive, except for the sword light that pierced into the sea of qi in Dantian, the rest were ignored.
Mu Chengxue's expression became more and more indifferent, his figure flashed, and he came into the air.
"The sword has left marks!"
In the blink of an eye, the figure in the air disappeared, leaving a sword mark and entering through the body.
"Uh"
Ning Chen groaned, and regardless of the severe pain in his heart, he grabbed Chengying and chopped off the ink sword.
Mu Chengxue's figure hurriedly retreated, and came to a distance of ten feet. Looking at the former, his eyes narrowed.
"immortal"
"You can't kill me"
Ning Chen pulled out the Shadow Bearing Sword in his heart, and said slowly, while speaking, black blood dripped down from his chest, sprinkled on the ground, and the vegetation quickly withered and lost its vitality.
Chengying trembled, resisting the blood on the sword, refusing to give in.
Ning Chen sighed in his heart, his left hand shook, dispelling the blood on the sword, and then he waved his hand and sent the sword back.
Mu Chengxue took Chengying over, frowning slightly, and for a while, there was a hint of hesitation.
"If you want to retrieve the scroll of life, girl, don't be in a hurry. I've taken Huangquanhua, and I won't live for long. I've waited for more than a thousand years in the barren city, and it's not bad for a few months." Ning Chen said softly.
"Do you know my identity?" Mu Chengxue said with a hint of coldness in her eyes. "I used to be the head of Taili for a period of time, and I can always find out some things that ordinary people don't know. The girl's surname is Mu, and the royal family of the Ziyin Dynasty is also surnamed Mu. More importantly, the whereabouts of the scroll of life are in After the fall of the Ziyin Dynasty, it was no longer known
, Daxia has been looking for it for a thousand years and can't find it, but the girl can clearly know its location, which is really doubtful."
Having said that, Ning Chen raised his head, looked into Mu Chengxue's eyes, and said, "If I guessed correctly, the girl and the senior in Huangcheng should be the descendants of the Ziyin Dynasty."
Hearing these words, Mu Chengxue's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and her figure flashed before the former. There was a loud noise, two fingers blocked the sword, Ning Chen let go of the sword between his fingers, took a few steps back, and said, "Girl, that's what you said, you can't kill me, and there should be more than people who suspect or even know about it. I am alone, there is no need to kill and silence
"
"What are you trying to say?" Mu Chengxue said coldly.
Ning Chen thought about it and said, "I want to make a deal with the girl."
"What deal?" Mu Chengxue asked. "It's very simple, one life is another life, the girl is by my side. In the future, if it is a critical moment, I hope that the girl can help once. In return, after a few months of Huang Quan's poisonous outbreak, the girl can do it without any effort. kill me
Now, take the scroll of life," Ning Chen suggested.
Mu Chengxue did not speak, and weighed it quietly.
"Add the Scroll of Earth" Ning Chen let out the breath of the Scroll of Earth, and added.
Mu Chengxue moved, with a hint of hesitation.
"There is still the Scroll of Heaven," Ning Chen continued to seduce.
"make a deal!"
Mu Chengxue nodded and made a decisive decision.
After the negotiation, Ning Chen didn't look happy or sad, waved his hand to gather the ghost sedan again, and immediately continued north.
"Where did you come from so many books?" Mu Chengxue asked the first question in his heart.
It took a thousand years for the barren city to get one page of the book of travel, and in this world, it is not easy to have one volume of the book of heaven. Who would have thought that the young man in front of him would actually have three volumes of the book of heaven.
Ning Chen honestly said, "The scroll of life was given by you, the scroll of earth was picked up, and the scroll of heaven was stolen from the tomb."
Mu Chengxue frowned and said, "I don't know you"
"I knew it before, but you forgot it later," Ning Chen said slowly.
Mu Chengxue closed his eyes and did not want to speak any more.
The corners of Ning Chen's mouth curved slightly, and there was a faint smile across her face. It was good to be able to keep her by her side these few months.
As for a few months later, if he is really poisonous, it is useless to keep these three volumes of heavenly books with him, so it is better to give them to her. He would like to thank the seniors for giving him six or seven months of sobriety time, to live a long life, and to see Mu Chengxue in his lifetime. That's enough, really enough.
