Phoenix’s Requiem

Chapter 476: In name only

Views:

The person who came was a young man who also had silver hair, but the silver purity of his hair was obviously not as good as that of the saint. But among the people Yun Ruoyan had seen so far, only Li Mo's silver hair seemed to be comparable to the saintess. In order not to attract attention, Yun Ruoyan also dyed Li Mo's hair silver-gray before entering Longbao.

"Sister saint, how about playing together?" The man walked towards the saint and Yun Ruoyan quickly, the saint stood still, and Yun Ruoyan stood behind her, looking at the man like a spring breeze Come in general.

"Yin Xiao, why are you here?" The saint said coldly, "Could it be that what I told the Great Elder last time was not clear enough?"

Yin Xiao directly ignored the anger of the saint, and said: "Father has already punished me last time, and punished me for a month of confinement at home, so the last time is over. Sister saint, you don't want to Too much grudges, we are a family after all."

Yun Ruoyan felt that Yin Xiao was looking at her intentionally or unintentionally when he was speaking. She lowered her head at first, but felt very uncomfortable by his obviously malicious eyes, so she simply raised her head and looked back.

The face with small eyes, flat nose, and thick lips scared Yin Xiao quite a bit, he couldn't help but ouch, and covered his eyes with his hands, as if his eyes were scorched by something.

The saint turned her head and glanced at Yun Ruoyan, then at Yin Xiao's reaction, and couldn't help laughing: "What's wrong with you, are you okay!"

"I mean Sister Saint, where did you find such a handmaid?" Yin Xiao said, still covering her eyes, pointing at Yun Ruoyan with one hand.

"What's wrong with my maid?" The leftover girl said disapprovingly: "This is the one I like the most among all my maids. I will use this maid from now on. There is nothing else, so I will leave first, and I You'd better not come here often."

After finishing speaking, the saint left without turning her head. Yun Ruoyan followed behind the saint. After walking a few steps, she felt a gaze staring at her from behind, so she turned her head suddenly, just in time to meet Yin Xiao again. Xiao ouched again and covered his eyes with his hands.

Yun Ruoyan thoughtfully followed the saint and continued on.

Hearing the sound of footsteps disappearing, Yin Xiao took his hands from his eyes and said to himself: "The figure is so good-looking, why did it grow like that, it's really hot eyes. This saint must have done it on purpose, it's really hateful, I'm afraid I'm going to have a nightmare at night. Hmph! Do you think this can scare me, I must let you know how powerful it is."

After Yin Xiao finished speaking, he waved his sleeves and left. Yun Ruoyan had just walked away with the saint, when a soft laugh came from the saint's mouth.

"It's really interesting. Have you seen that Yin Xiao's appearance just now is really interesting."

Yun Ruoyan asked: "The one named Long Xiao just now is the son of the Great Elder?" As far as Yun Ruoyan knew, the Great Elder and the Demon Dragon Ancestor belonged to the same generation, so the Silver Dragon Ancestor was at least ten thousand years old. Old, how could there be such a young child.

"He is the only child of the Great Elder now." The saint said: "A very annoying guy."

It turned out that the Great Elder had many children before, but they all passed away one after another. This Longyin is the youngest child of the Great Elder, and he is now over two hundred years old. It can be said that it is the treasure of the great elder, and he is someone who can walk sideways in the Dragon Castle.

As soon as Yun Ruoyan heard that this person must be difficult, she questioned the saint. According to her, although Yin Xiao was the adopted son of the great elder, she was so favored that she, a saint, had nothing to do.

Another point that the saint told Yun Ruoyan to pay close attention to was that this Yin Xiao was a daring person.

"As long as the maidservants beside me are a little bit attractive, or use strong or sweet words, it will be difficult to escape this person's clutches." The saint said.

Yun Ruoyan was stunned, "That's why you asked Nanny Li to find an ugly girl to be your maid?"

"Yes, not only must you be ugly, but you must also be agile." The saint nodded and said: "Although I look at the scenery in this dragon castle, the saint actually has no real power. And you should also see that I am not If you don’t have a high level of cultivation, if you really encounter any danger, I may not be able to protect you, you must have the ability to protect yourself, otherwise, it’s better to leave earlier.”

"How did this happen? Aren't you a saint of the Silver Dragon Clan? How could you not even protect a maidservant?" Yun Ruoyan was slightly surprised. She learned from Queen Xuetong that only the saints are the ones who treat the Silver Dragon Clan. It is very important, but as for how much power they have, they have not been asked.

"It's a fact. I've known since I was a child that I'm just a symbol, and I have no use other than to stay in this Dragon Castle and put on a show." The saint said helplessly: "A year ago, one of my My maidservant for many years was taken by Yin Xiao, but he sent someone to deceive her and raped her. The maidservant complained to me, and in a fit of anger, I raised the matter to the elder. But Long Xiao said that it was my maid who seduced him, and then..."

When the saint said this, she was so angry that she couldn't speak anymore.

"Then what happened?" Yun Ruoyan asked: "Does the Great Elder believe your words, or Long Xiao's?"

"Of course he believed what I said, but he punished my maid severely regardless of my objection, and only let Long Xiao be confined at home for some time." The saint said angrily: "My maid can't bear the humiliation, Then commit suicide and die."

Yun Ruoyan was also very angry, "That Long Xiao is really daring, he even dared to touch the people around the saintess, and what's even worse is that the elder is protecting him like this."

"Fortunately, I still have the false name of a saint, and this demon king still dare not do anything to me." The saint sighed: "But for the false name of a saint, I have to sacrifice my life's freedom and happiness."

"One thing I can't figure out." Yun Ruoyan said: "Since the status of the saint is so high, why doesn't she have any real power at all?"

"Actually, the saintess used to have a lot of rights. Our rights are only lower than the elders, but then something happened that almost completely deprived the saintess of their rights."

Yun Ruoyan knew from the saintess' mouth that more than a hundred years ago, the last saintess left the Jiyuan Continent without authorization, went to the low-level continent and never came back. At that time, the entire Silver Dragon Clan was furious because of this incident. From then on, the saint only had a name but no real power.

Yun Ruoyan knew that the saint who left without authorization a hundred years ago must be Queen Xuetong. What surprised Yun Ruoyan at the time was that what the saint said next, she said enviously: "The saint from the previous session Jurchen is very brave and courageous, it would be great if I could escape the shackles in front of me like her."

Yun Ruoyan's heart moved and said: "If you were given a chance, would you really be willing to give up your present position?"

"Why don't you want to?" The saint smiled bitterly: "I have been imprisoned here for half my life. If I have a chance to get rid of this place completely, I am willing to die."

The saint said that although their status looked high, it was because of the name of the saint, not her. Now all the power of the Silver Dragon Clan is in the hands of the Great Elder, and the saint is just a puppet in his hands. If he wants to abolish her, the next saint will appear soon.

According to her, even if Yun Ruoyan and the others kidnap her, they will not be able to threaten the Great Elder, but a new target has appeared, and this saint has the potential to become a partner. Yun Ruoyan believed that with the help of the saintess, it would not be difficult to lure Yin Xiao out of Longbao.

Yun Ruoyan had some calculations in her heart, but she was not in a hurry to implement it. She decided to discuss with Li Mo before making the final decision.

These days, Li Mo was not idle either. Yun Ruoyan was in charge of following the saintesses of the Silver Dragon Clan, and Li Mo was in charge of searching for Dragon Yin in the Dragon Castle and trying to get close to the temple.

Just like what the devil said, the guards around the temple were not only heavily guarded, but all of them were experts. Li Mo was not sure about entering the temple from under their noses. Even if he went in, even the demon spirits couldn't escape the restrictions inside, so naturally Li Mo couldn't escape either, he couldn't take the risk.

Obtaining the holy water and Queen Xuetong's body was temporarily deadlocked, but Li Mo had some clues about the whereabouts of Yun Ruoyan's father, Long Yin.

Once, he overheard a high-level conversation among the guards, saying that there was a secret prison in Longbao, in which some prisoners of other races were imprisoned. Although Li Mo didn't hear exactly who the prisoners were, his intuition told him that Yun Ruoyan's father, his father-in-law, was imprisoned there.

The night was dark, the saint had already fallen asleep, and it was time for Li Mo's patrol team to change shifts. According to the prior agreement, Li Mo sneaked into Yun Ruoyan's room, and Yun Ruoyan, as the saint's personal maid, had her own separate room.

The two miss each other very much, especially since Li Mo can see Yun Ruoyan these days but can't touch him, and Yun Ruoyan always smiles at him, which makes him angry. So when Li Mo turned over and entered through the window, Yun Ruoyan had just stood up from the bed, and before he had time to call out Li Mo's name, he was hugged into his arms like a gust of wind.

Li Mo just kissed Yun Ruoyan fiercely and didn't dare to touch her, because now there is a baby in her stomach. Li Mo put his hand on Yun Ruoyan's lower abdomen lightly and asked, "Little guy, be honest."

Yun Ruoyan smiled and said, "It's only been more than a month, and I haven't felt anything yet."

Li Mo also laughed because of his impatience. Since becoming a father, Li Mo has fallen in love with the feeling of being a father, especially the feeling of holding the newborn baby in his arms, which is particularly fulfilling .

"By the way, I have something very important to tell you." Yun Ruoyan sat up from Li Mo's arms and said.

"I also have something very important to tell you." Li Mo said, "You talk first."
