In the dark night, a group of people rushed towards the prison. The black-clad guards surrounded Emperor Shi Tian. On the right was Dugu Yingcheng in a purple robe. Emperor Shi Tian had already explained to them the action tonight, but the other party was an "old ghost" after all. Although he looked calm, he was nervous without showing any trace.
However, no matter what, we can only succeed tonight and cannot fail.
He looked up at the dark moon in the sky calmly. By now, the situation during the day should have been under control.
As for the 'old ghost', it will be left to the king to deal with personally.
All the cautious cells in his body were activated almost at the same time. Dugu Yingcheng knew that in this seemingly silent night, there was actually a huge crisis hidden. Although the "old ghost" was only one person, his planning skills were enough to match an army.
All these years of grudges will be settled tonight!
When they reached the vicinity of the Heavenly Prison, Emperor Shi Tian raised his hand high, and everyone immediately stopped and hid in the darkness.
The cold wind blew in at the right time, stirring the thin air, and a chill suddenly appeared. A silver light flashed. Emperor Shitian's palm brushed past Nangong Tianlan's chest.
In the dark night, swift footsteps landed carefully, stepping on the fallen leaves, making a rustling sound like the sound of insects. Nangong Tianlan slammed his palm towards Di Shitian, then quickly leaned back, dodging the oncoming attack, and took two steps back to stand still. Under the cold moonlight, his shadow seemed particularly long.
The moonlight was bleak, and the dark night was filled with a murderous atmosphere.
"Emperor Shitian!" His face was covered by a black gauze hat, and in such a dreary night, it was impossible to see clearly. The voice was deliberately processed, with a hoarseness like the friction of metal, a little creepy and a little unpleasant.
It seems that Nangong Tianlan doesn't know at this moment that Di Shitian has already known his true identity, so he is deliberately creating confusion.
She was wearing a silver robe, swaying in the wind, and she looked extremely graceful. Her slender and upright figure, like a god, stood on the treetops. Her narrow and long phoenix eyes were looking up, gathering all the grace and elegance in the world. Bathed in the moonlight, she looked even more noble.
The cold and hard lines outlined the murderous aura between his brows, and his eyes were like sharp swords, shooting fiercely at Nangong Tianlan.
After Nangong Tianlan stood still, his sword-like brows hidden under the black veil frowned, and a hint of doubt flashed across his face.
What is going on
Although coming to the Heavenly Prison in person today was a risky move, it was not necessary for Emperor Shi Tian to "greet" him personally.
There are only two possibilities for Emperor Shi Tian to come in person. One is that it is a coincidence and Emperor Shi Tian really has something to deal with in the prison. The other is that this is simply a trap set by Emperor Shi Tian.
If it is the first case, it can still be handled, but if it is the second - it is dangerous!
The cold and hard wind swept up the fallen leaves and broken grass. Behind Emperor Shitian, Dugu Yingcheng stood facing the wind with his fists clenched, looking at the battle in front of him with a solemn expression.
Having been with the king for many years, he understood the king's personality. Not to mention that the 'old ghost' was his long-time enemy, the fact that Nangong Tianlan injured the queen was enough to make the king go berserk.
Therefore, Nangong Tianlan, the king will definitely solve the problem personally.
Although he was anxious, he could only be a bystander!
On the other hand, the situation on Di Shitian's side is very good at the moment, and Ling'er is also relaxed.
After learning about the spirit dog from Qinglan, Ling'er immediately sent people to the dog tribe to inquire about the whereabouts of the spirit dog.
"Bai Haixing, the leader of the dog tribe, greets the king. Long live the king!" A man in a snow-white robe, with the ears on his head still in the shape of a dog, with a slender and strong body, knelt in front of Ling'er.
He has a handsome appearance and looks very young.
"You... are the chief of the dog tribe?" Ling'er asked uncertainly. It's not that she was making a fuss, but in Yunhai City, the head of a family or the chief of a clan are usually older people, and it is rare for the younger generation to serve as the chief of a clan.
Unless there are special circumstances, such as the Fire Clan, Huo Lingxuan became the head of the family because his father was injured. However, such situations are still rare.
So, what about this dog tribe
After hearing Ling'er's question, Bai Haixing's face remained pious, and then he answered seriously: "Your Majesty, the leader of the Dog Tribe is indeed me. I understand your doubts, and this is why I came here this time. My father, the previous leader, went out to look for his lost brother. Therefore, I will temporarily take over the position of leader."
Ling'er raised her thin eyebrows and pondered Bai Haixing's words in her heart. The doubts she had just had disappeared. However, she frowned and felt worried. Because after listening to his words, she didn't know why, she always had a bad premonition.
She sent people to the dog tribe to find out the whereabouts of the spirit dog. However, the spirit dog did not come, but Bai Haixing, the temporary tribe leader, did come. Moreover, he explained such a twist.
If her inference was correct, the lost brother that Bai Haixing mentioned might just be a spirit dog.
Before Ling'er finished thinking, Bai Haixing's voice sounded again, "The spirit dog that the king is looking for is exactly my younger brother. Therefore, I came here to explain to the king in person."
Well, it's true that what you think comes true. Ling'er frowned helplessly, but only for a moment, and then she relaxed, "I see, that's how it is. I wonder if Chief Bai could tell me where your brother is missing, so that I can send someone to look for him."
When Bai Haixing heard that Ling'er was going to send someone to look for him, his body stiffened slightly for a moment. Don't get me wrong, he was definitely not feeling guilty, he was just too excited.
He really didn't expect that the king would help them find his brother. What a great honor it was.
"I bow down to thank the king for his grace." He knocked his head to the ground again, making a slight sound, which showed how excited he was.
Ling'er waved her hand, and a gentle purple light came out, helping Bai Haixing, who was kneeling on the ground, up. "There is no need for this, Bai people. You are all my subjects, and I have a responsibility to you. Besides, I need to rely on your brother for some things. Just tell me all the information about your brother's disappearance, and I will go to investigate immediately."
"Yes, Your Majesty. This matter started a month ago. I remember that night, there was a fight of spiritual power in the south, and red light shot up to the sky. My father ordered our entire clan not to go out for fear of accidents. But my younger brother was very curious and active, so he sneaked out when no one was paying attention. By the time my father found out, several hours had passed. My father went out to look for him, but he only found this..." Bai Haixing lowered his head and took out a bloody dagger from his waist. "This dagger was made by my father for my younger brother to protect himself. My younger brother has been carrying it with him since he was sensible. It can be said that it has become a symbol of my younger brother. So..." (To be continued)
