The sky is blue.
The Lingwu lord in a long dress with a red background and gold thread stepped on the tundra with bare feet, and his jade feet lightly touched the glacier without leaving a single footprint. She raised her head, looked at the clear sky above her head, and frowned slightly. She didn't know why the sky became clear, she just followed the red light in the sky at a leisurely pace, and kept moving forward in the cold wind.
Then Lord Lingwu saw the sea.
What appeared in front of her was the end of the continent and the clearest sea in the world—the North Sea. There are huge icebergs floating on the surface of the sea, and the sea water presents a very clean blue-purple color, which is similar to the color in the depths of the sky. There was no sign of life around, and it seemed that there was only Lord Lingwu in the world.
To the north of Eternal Heaven Kingdom is the territory of the Giant Clan. The Giant Clan is adjacent to the Dragon Clan to the east and the sea to the north. This sea area is the source of food for most of the giants, and from the scattered footprints on the glacier, it can be seen that many giants used to be active in this area. However, it's very quiet here now, so quiet that it's a little more mysterious...or it feels sacred.
Lord Lingwu stood still, because the red light was no longer moving.
Blood souls from all over the world gathered in the sky above the sea, forming two glowing spheres, one golden and one red, juxtaposed with the sun. The blood souls that Lord Lingwu had been chasing had merged into the big ball at this moment, and the red light seemed a little brighter again. She walked to the edge of the sea and stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the water. With a biting cold feeling, Lord Lingwu's fingertips that touched the sea water instantly formed a layer of frost. The temperature here has definitely dropped to below zero, and it is only because of special reasons in the water that it does not freeze.
Lord Lingwu stood up, staring at the sea with a pair of phoenix eyes, and began to look for something.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a sentence not far behind her:
"Looking for what? The road to the bottom of the sea?"
Lord Lingwu hadn't turned around completely, the flame in his hand had already condensed into a sharp blade that pierced through the heavens and the earth.
It was the golden flame that once cut the sandworm mother body into two pieces in the Plain of Weeping Night, but it was blocked by another kind of pitch-black fire in mid-air. Two flames of different colors, golden and black, met in mid-air, and the seemingly insignificant collision caused an explosion hundreds of times larger, directly setting off a gust of wind and heat waves in the sky.
Lord Lingwu turned around and looked at the young man who was slowly adjusting his gauntlets and walking towards him with a smile on his face.
This face was no stranger to her, even familiar. The explosion above made his face hidden in the shadows, and scattered fires fell around the tips of his hair, but this did not affect the Lingwu Lord calling out his name calmly:
"... Lord of Yuxi City, Li De."
Lide lowered his hands and stood about twenty meters away from her. Lord Lingwu is very tall, and she is used to walking with her toes on the ground, giving people a light and light feeling. Not only can she keep eye level with Lide, but she can even look down on him slightly.
Liede was also smiling. The coercion of the Lingwu lord is still there, and the aura of a superior person will not disappear just because he is alone. It's just that Lide was not afraid of her when she had the army backing her up, and there is no reason why she would be afraid now. Lide glanced at the red light in the sky, the smile on his face faded a bit, and he said to Lord Lingwu:
"You know a lot more than I thought. I'm actually quite curious. I only learned some of these secrets when I went to a high giant. Where did you know it? The Church of the Abyss? Those people lurk quite deep, it doesn't seem like they will let you know."
Faced with Lide's doubts, Lord Lingwu did not answer directly.
She just spoke indifferently, and said briefly:
"No comment."
Lide didn't seem annoyed, and while moving his wrist, he looked directly into Lord Lingwu's breathtaking eyes, and asked again:
"Then let's change the question. Why did you let me come to the second team? If you let me follow Lanna, or Xiaoheixiaobai, we wouldn't have the relationship we have now."
On this point, Lord Lingwu did not hide anything.
She replied frankly:
"You want to know? The reason is actually very simple. Before I came here, I considered that the giants would probably set traps. Garberd said that you are the one with the highest combat power among the people who come here, and I need you in the team Help me with these troubles. Too bad you left before then."
Lord Lingwu looked at Lide and said:
"But in any case, you are investigating this matter out of goodwill. Therefore, my order to the Commander-in-Chief of the Hidden Guard is to let him protect your safety as long as there is no substantial progress in your investigation."
Liede simply replied:
"It's a pity that there is no impenetrable wall in the world."
Lord Lingwu raised her hand, and the golden flame condensed into a long sword in her hand.
The black flame armor worn by Lide on his right hand also seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, and the black flames immediately began to burn blazingly.
"Maybe. But Lingwu has never lacked ways to keep secrets."
Her tone was indifferent from beginning to end. She couldn't see Li De's cultivation level, and Li De couldn't see her cultivation level too much, but it didn't matter, both of them knew that each other's realm should be at the position of Nine Great Consummations, and they were only a thin line away from Ten Cultivation. And from Lord Lingwu's words, it can be seen that even now, she doesn't intend to let Li De die, she is the only one who knows this secret.
Lied smiled, his eyes were a little cold.
Lord Lingwu lowered his hand, and the golden flame extended further, scurrying on the ground like a poisonous snake. The strong wind stirred up her long clothes, blowing the three thousand black hairs into disorder, half of her peerless face was covered by a veil, and half of it was slightly murderous. But before he drew his sword, Lord Lingwu said lightly:
"Your two maids, I helped you protect them. The first batch of reinforcements should have arrived soon when I left. If there is no accident, they should be fine."
Li De glanced at her, hesitating to thank her at first, but the next moment Lord Lingwu had already drawn his sword.
To be precise, that is not a sword. It was a line of fire extending in the sky, like a sword or a long whip.
There was a roar of wind and thunder in the midair, and the flames burned the sky into a shocking crimson red. Lide was stunned for a moment, this is not the common nine-level perfection, but in terms of this blow, it has almost reached the level of ten, no wonder she was able to kill the copper giant back then.
Lide clenched his fist and swung it out, but before the punch shattered the flames, his eyes could not help drifting to the back of Lord Lingwu.
Not because of anything else, but because at that moment, the red sun in the sky sank into the sea water.
A gap was opened in the icy purple sea in an instant, forming a huge vortex covering tens of miles. Immediately afterwards, the water in the center of the vortex seemed to be sucked dry, turning into a hollow bottomless abyss, and the surrounding sea water fell down like a waterfall, and the huge sphere made of blood soul slowly sank along there. into the sea.
It was too late to see the result of the flame explosion. At the moment when the environment changed, the Lingwu Lord calmly wiped away the golden long sword in his hand, leaned back, and fell into the abyss. And Lid passed through the smoke from the explosion almost without thinking. Before the hollow area formed by the sea water completely disappeared, he jumped, and followed the woman into the sea.
