Heavy rain spread from Dongdu to Zhongjing.
It rained heavily all over the city.
Torrential rain fell continuously from high in the sky, covering the streets and alleys of Zhongjing and the long forest outside the city.
There is water everywhere.
The gloomy sky turned dark at the end of sight, as if it was the end of the world.
There is nowhere to run, no way out.
The dense forest has become muddy due to the continuous rainfall. There is still faint skylight outside the forest, but inside the forest it is still like darkness. The dense shadows of the trees seem to swallow up the light. The branches are swaying with the wind and rain, and the fallen leaves are colorful. In the dangerous situation, The trees in the dark environment seemed to be baring their teeth and claws, exuding a sinister and ferocious atmosphere.
In the dark forest, someone stepped back.
Back away slowly.
The sound of footsteps coming from all directions in the forest mixed with the howling of the wind echoed in the area, and a steady voice sounded from the intercom with a desperate tone.
"Eastern control."
"Western control."
"Southern control."
"North Control."
"The siege is complete, please close the net."
Every time a word was spoken, the body of the person who was retreating would instinctively stagnate. When the last four words, requesting to close the net, were heard, he finally stopped.
He was as tall as a giant, at least over two meters tall, with a majestic and calm face. His upper body clothes were completely torn, and the almost suffocating muscles of his entire body were exposed to everyone. Blood was flowing down his thick arms and chest. The heavy rain fell to the ground.
He stopped, clenched his fists, and stared calmly at the group of figures moving in front of him with calm eyes. Gradually, a fierce light like fire lit up from his pupils, sharp and wild.
There was a killing in the dark rain.
A man about fifty years old stood in front of a giant-like figure, wearing a white robe, a white hat, and a pair of white boots on his feet. His whole person was spotless, and the rain falling from the sky was two or three meters away from him. When he was just meters away, he was blown out by the invisible air current. The man in white stood in the sky, with a twisted and seemingly kind smile on his face that was wrinkled because of his thinness. He looked like a ghost.
"The game is almost over."
The man in white smiled and said: "I have to say that the game is very exciting, but I am tired of playing it. You should go back with me. I can guarantee that you will be treated like VIPs, of course, before you have any use value. .”
"Who are you?"
The giant in front of the man in white said in a deep voice. His body stood erect in the rain, looking particularly fierce and fierce, but his tone revealed a kind of weakness and powerlessness that could not be concealed.
"I am Bai Ye."
The man in white said calmly: "Young guest from Wuji Palace. You don't need to introduce yourself. I know you, Xu Chu, the eldest disciple of Yaochi in Zhongzhou. You are very good. You have not reached the Thunder Realm, but I have a confidant in the Thunder Realm who was killed by you. Yes. You are all very good. Oh, let me see, the person next to you, if I guess correctly, is from Shushan in Central Continent? Taixu Sword Master? Oh, I also know this person, he is from the Border Guards Corps. People. I have never met these two girls, but I still know the future princess."
Bai Ye's small eyes shone with strange excitement: "I must say that you are my most valuable prey in this period of time. You are smart and powerful. But it is such a pity that you still have not escaped the hunter's pursuit."
silence.
In the almost frozen atmosphere, Xu Chu, who was standing at the front, calmly took a step back.
Several figures, blocked behind by his huge body or hidden in the darkness, also took a step forward at the same time.
The six people immediately gathered together.
Continue to back away.
Even though they already knew there was no way out, it was not in line with each of their personalities to just sit back and wait for death.
The sneer in Bai Ye's eyes flashed away.
He waved slightly, and dozens of Wuji Palace elites behind him immediately followed him forward.
The frozen atmosphere became increasingly oppressive, as if it was a prelude to an explosion.
"Be careful and don't hurt our princess."
A voice suddenly sounded beside Bai Ye.
In the crowd, a man wearing a bright red robe stepped through the crowd and appeared directly next to Bai Ye.
A large red robe completely covered his limbs and head. The red robe was as red as blood, and the loose hem fluttered with the wind. He was also hanging in the air, but he didn't look like a person at all standing next to Bai Ye. Like a piece of clothing floating in the air.
"That's natural."
The contemptuous look in Bai Ye's eyes flashed away, and he said expressionlessly: "I won't hurt your princess, but you can't touch the other people here either. Tianyue, take away the people you want soon, and the others , you must follow me back to Wuji Palace."
The red robe hanging in the air moved slightly, as if nodding.
The footsteps in all directions got closer and closer with the wind, and a compelling momentum spread in the forest.
Xu Chu's expression became more serious.
He didn't know Bai Ye, but he knew the red robe next to Bai Ye.
Tianyue, the high priest of Ise Shrine, a true half-step invincible master, has been the main figure in hunting them down for many days.
The cause of the matter was completely inexplicable. They successfully killed the target during a hunting operation, and there was a young man of about thirty years old with the target. There is always no mercy in this kind of battle between countries. , Xu Chu was completely out of instinct and planned to kill and silence him, but the young man who seemed to have no force suddenly rose up and seriously injured Xu Chu in an instant.
At that moment, the ones who reacted fastest were not Li Baitian and Ning Qiancheng, but Dongcheng Rushu, who had just joined them in the hunting operation with them.
The two had a brief fight. Although Xu Chu was injured, it was not fatal, but the young man who was already in the thunder realm successfully escaped from the scene.
From beginning to end, the young man only said one sentence.
And it’s Chinese with a correct accent.
"I remember you."
This is the beginning of their nightmare.
In less than two hours, the Higashishima Shinto forces, underworld, and special operations elites moved like a swarm, from Ningdo to Jusaka, and then to Chukyo.
The pursuers also changed from the burning realm to the thunder realm, and finally even Tianyue, the high priest of Ise Shrine, was dispatched.
And to this day, they haven't even figured out the specific identity of that young man.
But none of that matters anymore.
If Tianyue's target is just Dongcheng, then Baiye's target is everyone. It is an almost overwhelming conspiracy, and it also means that they have been directly involved in the current general trend of the two countries from their initial personal feud.
There is no point in thinking about anything else. Breaking through is the only option.
But a breakout
Where to break out
"Brother, give it a try and go east."
A weak voice sounded, as if it was as weak as dying: "If it doesn't work, just leave me behind. If you can leave, one by one."
Xu Chu's body trembled and he turned around to look at Ning Qiancheng behind him.
Ning Qiancheng's face had begun to turn a deathly blue-gray color. He hugged Yu Qingyan who was in a coma in his arms tightly, smiling reluctantly and weakly.
"I'm afraid it won't work."
As he spoke, he pushed Yu Qingyan in his arms towards Xu Chu, and his voice became weaker and weaker: "Take care of her. And so on, I can't... I'm sorry, Marshal."
"What nonsense are you talking about?! Let's get together. Pretending to be cool, you're going to support me, unless I die, otherwise... otherwise..."
Li Baitian grabbed Ning Qiancheng's collar, but stopped mid-sentence.
Ning Qiancheng seemed to smile reluctantly and fainted again.
"Carrying the green smoke."
Li Baitian gritted his teeth and carried Ning Qiancheng on his back. He gave instructions to Ye Huayu and said in a low tone: "Go east and break out!"
"Let's go."
A clear voice suddenly sounded: "Senior Brother, you lead them to break out, I will block them."
"you?!"
Everyone turned back at the same time.
Standing next to Ye Huayu was an extremely young girl.
The girl looks to be around 20 years old at most, a little immature, but unparalleled in beauty. Her figure is extremely slender and tall, just over 1.7 meters tall. The black tights on her body are also somewhat torn, revealing a lot. With fair and soft skin, she was supporting Yu Qingyan with Ye Huayu. Seeing everyone's eyes turning, she nodded and said seriously: "I'll block them."
The slight blood stain on her face could not hide her beauty. Her long black hair was not soaked by the rain, but danced wildly in the wind. Her eyes were quiet and clear, but at this time, she carried an unshakable determination: "I can."
This is a stunning girl with a focused and pure temperament. Standing in the night rain, she is like a clear spring in the mountains. Although it is cold, she has a temperament that nourishes all things.
Beautiful and noble, without causing dust.
This is the case in Dongcheng!
Li Baitian raised his eyebrows slightly. Although he didn't intend to retreat, he didn't say anything.
Deep down in his heart, he was still a little dissatisfied with Dongcheng Ru, not because of anything else, but because of her clumsiness.
Yes.
It's just hiding clumsiness.
At least that's what Li Baitian thinks.
From Ninghu to Jusaka, and then to Chukyo, for nearly half a month, they were evading pursuit almost all the time.
But Dongcheng was like this from beginning to end, but he rarely took action.
Among the six people, everyone has a role, but if you think about it carefully, Dongcheng seems to have never played any role.
Three days ago, Xu Chu personally killed Leng Xue, a master of Thunder Realm in Wuji Palace.
Five days ago, Li Baitian and Ye Huayu teamed up for a sneak attack, seriously injuring a Thunder Realm master, and two Burning Fire Realm masters died under the Shushan Sword.
Li Baitian and Ye Huayu were both injured.
Seven days ago, Xu Chu personally opened the way and led them all the way out of Ninghu and into Jusaka.
Ten days ago.
Yu Qingyan.
Yu Qingyan is the weakest in the team but has made the greatest contribution.
Tianyue, a half-step invincible master, was seriously injured!
No one could tell what was going on.
Ten days ago, Tianyue appeared for the first time, with a domineering attitude. Xu Chu was at the front, and six people attacked together, but they were still defeated. In the melee, Yu Qingyan, who was always wandering around the periphery, was At an opportunity that no one noticed, he gave Tianyue a gentle blow.
Then the extremely brave high priest of Ise Shrine exploded.
What exploded was not the body, but the blood.
Countless blood turned into blood mist, spraying out from every part of his body with blazing high temperature. Almost in the blink of an eye, Tianyue's strength dropped by at least a small level. Tianyue, who was frightened and angry, no longer had any intention. Stay, subconsciously counterattack, then turn around and leave.
However, the counterattack that was supposed to kill Yu Qingyan was completely blocked by Ning Qiancheng. After the battle, Yu Qingyan fell into a coma.
Ning Qiancheng was also seriously injured and dying.
However, after this battle, the pursuer was also successful. It is said that Tianyue was poisoned, but so far no one can explain clearly what happened to the poison. The other party was suspicious, and the pursuer Naturally, the killing would not be all-out, but at least they had been able to escape for so long and escaped to Zhongjing.
In Zhongjing, Ise Shrine and Wuji Palace fully cooperated. Although the pursuit was close, it was vague that the other side was only pressing them step by step, and seemed to have given up on the idea of taking their lives.
For several days in a row, they held on tenaciously, but now all the supplies, physical energy and willpower have been completely exhausted. Retreat
There is really no way out.
And throughout the process.
What did Dongcheng Ru do
She was also taking action, but from beginning to end, she didn't seem to draw her sword!
A young master who is still ranked above him in Central Continent.
A young master who has reached the peak of the Burning Fire Realm at the age of only nineteen.
The role she played was not even as good as Ye Huayu.
Li Baitian was not afraid of death, nor was he afraid of dying for his friends, but Dongcheng's behavior really made him feel a little uncomfortable.
"no."
Xu Chu shook his head without hesitation: "I'll stop them, you go."
"You can't stop it."
Dongcheng looked at Xu Chu like this and said bluntly.
Xu Chu opened his mouth and his face changed slightly: "You want..."
"It's really touching, but I'm sorry to tell you that none of you can leave."
A gentle and elegant voice suddenly sounded: "You have two choices now. First, follow me back to Dongdu as a guest. Second, go to Wuji Palace as a guest."
A faint blue electric light suddenly flashed in the rain.
The lightning dispersed the darkness.
In the ultimate brilliance, a young figure walked out directly from the electric light.
Dongcheng Ru looked at the lightning in front of him quietly, blinked his clear eyes, and said nothing.
Tenyue, the high priest of Ise Shrine, and Bai Ye, the right guest of Wuji Palace, bowed slightly at the same time: "I have met Your Highness."
Your Highness? !
This is the honorific title given to the invincible masters in the dark world, but it is not absolute.
For example, Wang Yuetong, the little princess of the Beihai Wang family, is often called Her Royal Highness the Palace Master.
But such words are not used casually. People who can deserve this title either have absolute strength or have an identity worthy of this title.
Your Highness, Japan
Thinking of the princess Tianyue mentioned just now...
Xu Chu and Li Baitian looked at each other slightly.
Could this young man encountered during the hunting operation be a certain prince from the East Island royal family
The young man nodded casually. He was wearing a very ordinary sportswear. He had short hair and an ordinary appearance. He was as tall as a man from the East Island, short. He had no extra decorations on his body, but every move he made showed a sense of "no". The dignity you show is the demeanor developed when you are in a respected position all year round. It is unattainable.
"What? Haven't you taken action yet?"
The young man asked casually, his tone was soft, but in the ears of Xu Chu and Li Baitian, the tone translated by the translator became extremely rigid.
"We're getting ready."
Tianyue straightened her body and spoke respectfully.
The young man nodded casually and pointed at Dongcheng Rusu. His eyes were a little fiery: "Don't hurt this woman. From tonight on, she is my woman."
"I won't marry you."
Dongcheng looked at the young man who suddenly appeared quietly. There was no hostility in her eyes, only concentration and seriousness that were so pure that it was difficult to see the depth.
"why?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, as if he had encountered something interesting, and smiled playfully: "Maybe I should introduce myself. I am Prince Renwu of the East Island royal family. I can forgive your sins on the East Island. I even It is your honor to consider you as my princess. After all, I will also have to bear a lot of pressure to marry a Chinese sow as my princess. But you are very attractive to me... "
"I won't marry you."
A crisp tone.
Dongcheng repeated this again. He looked at Prince Renwu and said seriously: "I have a fiancé."
"Um?"
Prince Renwu raised his eyebrows slightly: "Who is it?"
His tone was brief, but he still unconsciously revealed a hint of gloom.
But then he thought of the other party's identity, took a deep breath, and calmed himself down again.
The daughter of the commander of the Central Continent Border Guards Corps...
Getting such a woman is even related to the overall situation of Dongdao.
Even if she is not a virgin, Prince Renwu is willing to accept it.
"I haven't met him yet."
Dongcheng shook his head, his clear eyes seemed a little aggrieved: "I don't know if I will see you again."
She raised her head, looked at the raining sky through the dense branches of the trees, and sighed softly.
"You go."
She stepped forward and said.
"Junior sister..."
Xu Chu opened his mouth and his tone was dry.
"We have no choice."
Dongcheng said softly, her black hair dancing wildly in the wind, stepping on the breeze and the night rain.
Reach out.
For many days.
over the years.
The long sword that had always been left behind her was gently picked off by her bare hand.
"The sword is named Silence."
She spoke softly, and her soft, almost ethereal tone spread through the forest.
In an instant, dense sword intent roared and surged, covering the mountain forest.
This is Yaochi's sword.
The sword in Yaochi is also like the one in Dongcheng.
In the mountain breeze and night rain, Dongcheng Rusu's eyes suddenly flashed with a gleam of brilliance and extreme intensity.
Silence is about to be unsheathed.
I am in a desperate situation, and so are my enemies.
Die with the enemy.
