Chapter 14 Soto City

"squeak--"

Xue Hanjiang, who had her hair back tied up, pushed the door open from the inside, and then closed it carefully.

Seeing Xue Hanjiang regaining his composure, Ge Lan felt uncomfortable: "Your Highness..."

Xue Hanjiang shook his head: "I'm fine."

Seeing Xue Hanjiang's gray hair, which was lighter than when he first met, Gelan sighed and chose to remain silent.

Xue Hanjiang lifted his legs and left Yizhuang, followed by Gelan.

The two of them walked for a while, and Gelan suddenly found movement behind him. Looking back, he found that Yizhuang had ignited a raging flame at some point, and he was shocked: "Did the candle fall down? The mother is still inside!!! I'll go firefighting—”

"No need." Xue Hanjiang looked at the flames in the distance, and his pale eyes under the moonlight seemed to be filled with flames: "I don't want anyone to come to Mama's grave to disturb Mama in the future. She, who has been bound all her life, should also yearn for freedom.

You see, how free these dust blown by the wind are. "

Ge Lan shuddered, looking at Xue Hanjiang whose face was still "quiet and peaceful", his gaze was filled with a little more fear than respect and love.

After a while, Xue Hanjiang muttered to himself: "If I die, it should be the same."

Ge Lan felt a pain in his heart, and knelt down on one knee to be at eye level with Xue Hanjiang: "Your Highness, if you feel sad, you can cry, my subordinates feel very uncomfortable seeing you like this."

Xue Hanjiang patted Ge Lan's head and raised the corners of his mouth. Although he was smiling, the smile didn't reach his eyes, and the cold light in his eyes was piercing: "If crying is useful, let me cry for a day, but that's not It's useless, my brother Galan."

Galan stopped talking, stood up silently and walked behind Xue Hanjiang.

Xue Hanjiang looked up at the stars in the sky, and after a long time, he slowly said, "Brother Gelan, I don't want to hide anymore."

Galan subconsciously stood up straight: "Galan will follow His Highness's orders."

Xue Hanjiang said: "With my current strength, it is indeed not enough to shake the Great Concubine, so I need you to give me a helping hand."

Ge Lan nodded: "My younger brother Ge Qing and I will share His Highness' worries."

Xue Hanjiang turned around: "No, what I mean is, I need you to completely control the Forbidden Army of the Imperial City."

Ge Lan frowned: "But Ge Qing and I are just a little guard chief, I'm afraid...we're not capable enough."

Xue Hanjiang smiled: "You go to the old master, Grandpa Jun will definitely be interested in this plan and provide you with help."

A trace of doubt flashed in Galan's eyes.

Xue Hanjiang didn't explain, and continued: "If there is something to do, I still use the falcon to send messages."

Galan nodded: "This subordinate leads the order."

Xue Hanjiang glanced at the time: "You go back, you may change if you leave for too long."

Galan bowed and retreated, and left quickly.

After Ge Lan left, Xue Hanjiang squatted in the grass on the ground with his knees hugged, revealing an indescribable fragility.

It wasn't until dawn the next day that Xue Hanjiang stood up as if nothing had happened.

Xue Hanjiang first went to Yizhuang to confirm the situation of Yizhuang.

Seeing that there were only some unburned ashes left in the original Yizhuang, he took the horse left by Galan and left calmly in the direction he came and went.

……

It took Xue Hanjiang almost a month to return to Notting City.

Of course, apart from not rushing on the road, it was more because Xue Hanjiang realized after experiencing great grief, his soul power broke through level 19 and reached level 20, and he went to the Star Dou Forest to get a soul ring on the way.

The big forest that ordinary people think is extremely dangerous is nothing to Xue Hanjiang who has a strange affinity.

To be specific, it's like coming home.

……

After choosing for a long time, Xue Hanjiang chose his target - a 900-year-old double-headed eagle that is infinitely close to a thousand years old.

To Xue Hanjiang's surprise, the two-headed horned eagle did not attack him, but instead crashed into his arrow as if to die.

In 900, the soul ring brought by the double-headed horned eagle who took the initiative to die brought Xue Hanjiang a little bit of power.

But after being diverted part of the soul power by the lotus seeds of the second martial soul, Xue Hanjiang easily absorbed the soul ring.

This super-quality soul ring made Xue Hanjiang's soul power jump by one level, reaching level 22. At the same time, he also obtained a special skill besides improving his physical fitness-Hawkeye Eye.

After activating this skill, Xue Hanjiang immediately possessed twice as powerful eyesight as that of an eagle, which greatly improved the accuracy of his bow and arrow.

And the second soul ability bestowed on him by the double-headed horned eagle is a very special "spiritual energy arrow".

Using the second soul skill can release a soul attack that has no entity and cannot be defended physically, causing direct damage to the soul and marking the target of the arrow at the same time, reducing the target's defense during the marking period.

The target hit by the aura arrow will be marked by the eagle eye, which can directly sense the position of the mark and easily track the attack.

Xue Hanjiang tested it, and the most remarkable thing about the spirit arrow is that it consumes less, can be used multiple times in a row, and when the soul impact hits, it will stun the target for a second.

However, these were not the reasons that made Xue Hanjiang so happy.

——After absorbing the surplus power of the super-grade soul ring, the second martial soul, the chaotic lotus seed, germinated!

Two intertwined slender vines grew out of the black lotus seeds. The leaves of the vines were scarlet red and jade white.

It's just that after the Chaos Lotus Seed evolves, although it still can't cultivate, it can't attach a soul ring.

The only change is that the attribute changes of the first Wuhun Yuanyue Zongwang bow are no longer random, but can be controlled at will.

Nothing more than that.

Xue Hanjiang's research on martial souls was far behind that of theoretically invincible masters, so he didn't continue to ponder, but returned to Notting College as quickly as possible.

……

The master carefully studied the ice fire vine evolved from the chaotic lotus seed, but did not find any clues.

Regarding this, Xue Hanjiang did not show any dissatisfaction.

On the contrary, Tang San was very concerned about Xue Hanjiang's appearance when he left, and he asked side-by-side questions as soon as he came back this time.

Every time Xue Hanjiang just smiled and said: "There is nothing to worry about, it's just a small matter, of course it will be resolved when I go back."

Tang San didn't believe it, but Xue Hanjiang's mouth was very strict, and he couldn't ask half a word, so he had to give up.

Five years have passed quickly in a busy, peaceful and fulfilling life.

The talents of the three of them are among the best in Notting City, and countless intermediate soul master academies have sent invitation letters before they graduated.

There are even some intermediate soul master academies that have given recommended places.

But they were all turned down at the request of the teacher.

The teacher asked them to set off after graduation to a third-rate soul master academy in Soto City, while the teacher would go to the imperial city first and then meet at the academy they were about to go to.

Only after Xue Hanjiang asked others in private did he know that the Shrek academy the teacher mentioned was even a third-rate academy that didn't even have a formal establishment.

But Xue Hanjiang, Tang San and Xiao Wu went without hesitation.

Tang San did it because of his trust in the master, Xiao Wu did it because of Tang San, and Xue Hanjiang felt that it was the same wherever he went, anyway, he spent more time studying by himself.

The six years of living and studying in Notting City are the only pure and fulfilling happy time in Xue Hanjiang's limited memory, and the hatred and darkness that took root and blossomed in the bottom of his heart rarely came out.

Every day looks very "quiet and good".

Six years have passed, and the relationship between Xue Hanjiang, Tang San and Xiao Wu seems to have changed.

Tang San and Xue Hanjiang are senior brothers, they usually spend a lot of time in cultivation together, their relationship is extremely close, and their tacit understanding and cooperation are also excellent.

Although they are not so close to each other, they can still understand the general intentions of the other party with just one look.

Tang San and Xiao Wu have lived together for so many years and are closer than brothers and sisters, even... In Xue Hanjiang's view, some of their behaviors have clearly exceeded the scope of "brother-sister relationship".

As for Xue Hanjiang and Xiao Wu...

It's a little strange, it's clear that Xue Hanjiang is not as affectionate and doting to her as Tang San, but Xiao Wu inexplicably listens to Xue Hanjiang's words, and even unconsciously reveals her closeness to Xue Hanjiang.

Tang San went in without knowing it, but Xue Hanjiang knew it very well, this came from his special affinity that could attract spirit beasts.

In other words, Xiao Wu is not a real human being, and subconsciously regards Xue Hanjiang as the same kind.

Xue Hanjiang also considered whether to tell Tang San about this matter, but in the end he still didn't say it.

Because there is more than blood and deep hatred between soul beasts and humans?He couldn't guarantee whether Tang San would accept it after knowing it.

and so……

Let him discover the secret slowly.
