==================

"Cough cough, cough... um..."

People came and went, and there was a low cough on the tense and chilling city. It was extremely painful to hear, and the passing monks couldn't help turning their heads when they heard the sound, and cast a worried look at the slender figure. He continued to run forward without stopping.

The battle on the front line was tight, and although the city had not yet fallen into a war situation, there were not enough manpower in Hedong, and each person had several responsibilities, so there was no room for delay.

Therefore, the monks who came and went just glanced at the figure on the high platform from a distance, then cheered up and continued to rush towards their destination with the wind under their feet.

His Royal Highness, who is sick and seriously injured, goes to the high platform every day to inspect and supervise the battle in person, how can they slack off?

Even though there are hundreds of thousands of ghost army outside Hedong County, mighty and siege, but Hedong County is the most dangerous pass in Donghuang, and His Royal Highness Prince is also with them, so what fear do ghosts have?

"Your Highness, do you want to go back?"

After Xiao Chongyan couldn't help coughing up blood again, Ye An finally couldn't bear it anymore, and persuaded in a low voice with some worry.

"I'm here to watch. If there is any change in the city, I will send someone to report it immediately."

The leaders of the three major factions in Hedong were either dead or injured. Now under Xiao Chongyan, Ye An has the highest status. Since the beginning of the war, he has taken over the position of general.

But in Ye An's view, the exhaustion was still far inferior to that of His Royal Highness who was dragging his sick body and had to go to the city to inspect and supervise the battle every day.

Although Xiao Chongyan used to come here every day, he usually only stayed here for a while, and would return home after seeing the situation on the battlefield, but today this delicate Highness has stayed here for more than half a day, and it seems that he is even ready. Preparations for staying overnight at the head of the city——

How does this work?

The city was windy, the young prince was dressed in white, and he wore a dark cloak outside. A circle of fur around his hood tightly wrapped his thin cheeks, making his face under the hood paler and paler, showing a kind of long-term illness. Getting weaker and weaker.

Delicate and fragile, as if it would break at the touch of a touch, Ye Anxin was terrified, wishing to pack up this delicate and frail Highness and send him back to Zhaoying Peak Qiongyuan, so as not to let him run around again.

A few days ago, His Highness was still fine, why did he become like this after he came to the city for a few days?

"Need not."

Xiao Chongyan coughed a few times, not unexpectedly seeing spots of blood on the square handkerchief, but he just destroyed the square handkerchief with a calm face, slapped open the medicine bottle at hand, took a pill, closed his eyes slightly and adjusted his breath for a moment, his face suddenly changed. much better.

Calculating changes in the battle situation with divine sense is extremely exhausting, and the ghostly aura on the Hedong battlefield is extremely strong, Xiao Chongyan's spirit is inherently unstable, so he is affected even more.

In the past few days, his soul has been shaken, causing the Sword Bone Mountain Range to crack again, so his body is even worse.

Xiao Chongyan has long experienced the fragility of this body and is used to it.Right now it was just coughing up blood, far from serious, so he didn't take it seriously, just silently put the hand stove in his arms close to his body, and asked Ye An in a low voice: "How is the battle going?"

"The Guiwu, Shouyi, and Qingliu factions each lead a line, and they have all reached the middle of the battlefield and are about to turn back." Ye An also saw the blood-stained square handkerchief, his face was clouded immediately, but he didn't want to look at himself. His Highness had a seizure, and he could only hold his breath, "This time the battle line is advancing ten miles deeper than it was two days ago."

Xiao Chongyan nodded and said, "It's almost there, let them be careful when they return."

"Yes, Your Highness." Ye An bowed his head, paused, and couldn't help asking, "Are you really not going back to rest? Do you need me to invite Gu Jing?"

He said that he was still a little strange in his heart, thinking that Gu Jing was not clinging to his highness every day, why did he disappear early this morning?

What on earth was this overseas medical trainee thinking, and he just left His Highness alone like this—couldn't he know that His Highness is not in good health and needs constant care?

The irritable scholar took a step forward to protect His Royal Highness from the howling wind above the city, thinking angrily in his heart, thinking that this Gu Jing really didn't know what to do, he was really not a thing.

But Ye An didn't know that at this moment Xiao Chongyan was talking with Gu Jing in the heart lake.

"How's your health? Have you taken your medicine on time?"

"It's okay, it's not a big problem."

"If you can't support it, tell me, don't be brave, huh?"

"Oh."

At the heart lake on the top of the mountain, two figures, one black and one purple, stand side by side, staring at the ground of the heart lake at their feet. They are shoulder to shoulder, elbow to elbow, very close, and their two big sleeves are fluttering in the wind. Tangled together, very intimate.

Behind them, two villains with sword knowledge stood side by side by the lake in a learned manner, looking at the intimate couple, winking at each other and secretly laughing endlessly.

Behind the two villains with sword awareness, the black ghost larva has grown a lot, but it is trapped by the sword cage surrounded by several sword lights, and it is sleeping on its belly, not at all like a prisoner conscious.

"The three teams have all gone deep into the back of the battlefield, ten miles deeper than last time, and the advance is very easy, but it may not be today."

Xiao Chongyan stared indifferently at the crumbling Sword Bone Mountain Range in the distance, his face became paler, but his voice remained calm.

"Chen Qianshui is leading the team of the Guiwu Sect. This line should be put down." Gu Jing said, raising his hand to summon the Kongwuqin, and the sound of the piano rang leisurely, stabilizing the soul and sword bones for Xiao Chongyan, "The other two I’m watching the line, so don’t worry.”

"Yeah." Xiao Chongyan said with a slightly relaxed expression, "You have to be careful too."

"Okay." Gu Jing smiled lowly, the laughter was a little dull, but it was extremely magnetic and very pleasant to hear, "Let me sort out the soul for you first."

Behind the two of them, Bu Bu and Xiao Jiu were covering their mouths with their swords, watching helplessly as their master was held by the doctor's wrist and pinched the pulse door, but he did not resist and let him do what he did... The two swords came together They laughed together with bright eyes and excited faces.

Ever since Xiao Chongyan used the Jiu Xiao Sword once, as long as Xiao Chongyan allowed it, even if they were thousands of miles apart, Gu Jing could use the Jiu Xiao Sword to enter Xiao Chongyan's heart lake, instead of having to stay by the other party's side as before.

This kind of supernatural power, like the sword cultivator and the natal sword, has a clear heart and enters the heart lake, but now it happens to two practitioners. It is really weird, but it is very reasonable and meaningful after careful consideration.

During the time between Jiuxiaojian and Bubujian, they have made up a lot of worldly stories and learned many things that they have never heard of before. Now, no matter how they look at their master and Gu Jing, they feel that there is something strange between them. unusual.

Now that I can connect with my mind and enter the heart lake, if I can merge my soul and soul in the future, and cultivate the Dao together... My master is so weak, can he still bear it?

Heck, they're just two swords, why bother so much!

……

……

"I'm leaving."

After a while, Gu Jing suddenly opened his mouth, then his body swayed slightly, gradually faded away, and he was about to leave.

"Await your return."

Xiao Chongyan naturally understood what was going on in the outside world. He exchanged a glance with Gu Jing, nodded slightly, followed his spiritual thoughts slightly, and exited the heart lake.

It's just that before he left, he looked back, with a puzzled expression on his face, wondering what happened to Xiaojiu, why did he smile like that, as if he looked foolish?



"Your Highness, the team of the Qingliu Sect encountered a sniper attack on the way back, and the ones coming from the ghost domain are the dream weaver and the shadow guest."

The moment Xiao Chongyan exited Heart Lake, he heard Ye An whispering in his ear. He said "hmm", indicating that he was listening, and asked, "How about the casualties?"

"There are minor and serious injuries, and there is no danger to life." Ye An paused, and then said, "It was Gu Jing who stopped the dream weaver and the shadow guest."

I heard that the scene was extremely dangerous at that time. If this overseas medical trainee hadn't made a bold move at a critical moment, I am afraid that no one in the team sent by the Qing School today would have come back alive.

"At the initial stage of the Ninth Revolution, all those who come here are the main body, not a parasitic puppet."

A cold voice suddenly came from beside the two of them, and the doctor in purple clothes carrying the harp walked up to the top of the wall and came to Xiao Chongyan's side.

Gu Jing looked at Xiao Chongyan, stretched out his hand to feel his pulse, and said, "They are a little anxious."

Apparently Gu Jing just left from Xinhu Lake because of the attack of craftsmen and needed to rescue everyone from the Qing school.

Xiao Chongyan nodded, understanding Gu Jing's meaning: "The ghost domain projection has landed, but something went wrong."

The eager attitude of the craftsmen means that the ghost domain projection may not be able to fully descend. Although the high-level ghosts can enter the Canglan Continent through projection, they will be subject to many restrictions, so they need to act faster.

Just like this time, the craftsmen made a hasty move, two days earlier than they expected.

Among them, nature represents many meanings and brings many changes.

The two looked at each other and spoke at the same time.

Gu Jing said: "They can't stay for too long."

Xiao Chongyan frowned: "We have to go to the imperial capital as soon as possible."

Gu Jing pondered for a moment, then asked: "Is it possible?"

Xiao Chongyan said without hesitation, "Yes."

Then they looked at each other again, and looked at Ye An together.

"..." Ye An, who was stared at by the two, looked puzzled, "Your Highness, what kind of charades are you playing?"

Can you say something that others can understand?

Xiao Chongyan seemed to be a little tired, leaned back in the chair, and looked at Ye An again after hearing the words, his eyes flashed the meaning of evaluation, and said after a while: "Gu Jing will not make any more moves these days, you all do well Prepare."

Ye An was slightly taken aback, but before he could figure out the meaning of this sentence, Xiao Chongyan's order immediately followed.

"The next three factions don't need to go deep. They must clean up the battlefield below the city. Two days later, you and Chen Qianshui will each lead a line and go deep into the battlefield... Kill ghosts as much as possible, attract the attention of the opponent, and make a gesture of rushing west to break through... But Don't confront craftsmen head-on, you must preserve your strength—"

Xiao Chongyan's voice was very soft, and he spoke very slowly. The intermittent voice was almost blown away in the wind, but the meaning contained in that sentence was extremely heavy, which made Ye An couldn't help holding his breath, and felt a sudden chill , Heartbroken.

He said: "We want Huangquan... to start the siege as soon as possible."



Three days later, outside the city of Hedong County.

The night was heavy, but under the extremely dark night, a team of dozens of people galloped from the west, separated by several feet, while killing the surrounding ghosts, they approached the gate of Hedong County.

Ye An was at the end of the team, standing in front of everyone. He didn't take the initiative to kill the ghosts, but kept an eye on the situation of the rest of the disciples, flicking the judge's pen in his hand from time to time, and the ghosts that were sneak attacking or missed were silent. breath down.

"Keep the formation, don't be greedy for merit, and return to the city as quickly as possible!"

He shouted softly, reminding everyone from time to time to help everyone avoid many dangerous traps on the battlefield. A group of people galloped in the middle of the night, without any danger along the way, and soon came to the city.

On the east side of the city, there was another team flying over at the same time, and the leader of the team was Ye An's friend, Chen Qianshui from Guiwupai.

The two looked at each other, and at the same time turned their spiritual power into the emblems of their respective factions, ascended into the night sky, and sent messages to the guards.

"Qingliu faction Ye'an/Guiwu faction Chen Qianshui, come back from hunting, please open the city gate!"

Ye An looked at the Guiwu faction team on the opposite side, and saw that everyone was wounded and looked exhausted. They had almost reached their limit, but their emotions were very high. He breathed a sigh of relief and smiled to his friend: "Qian Shui, did you enjoy the hunt this time?"

Chen Qianshui snorted and looked sideways: "If you didn't hold back, we could have more fun."

"If we hadn't met craftsmen to buy time for you, you would have been trapped in the ghost camp and couldn't get out." Both teams had to return in full, which made Ye An relax a lot, and laughed and taunted back , "How do you want to have fun, drinking with craftsmen in the base camp?"

"Then I'm overthinking it." Chen Qianshui was obviously joking, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you want to be together?"

As soon as this remark came out, both teams immediately laughed.

"Let's go, isn't it just to kill a craftsman and have a drink?"

"My Hedong students can know everything, but they can't drink alcohol! One of them will leave later?"

"Not tonight—we'll have a drink together after this battle is over!"

There are young practitioners on both sides, at the age of youthful vigor and high spirits. Now that they have just experienced a life-and-death battle and successfully completed the mission, they are finally able to relax a little bit from their body and mind, even though they are all almost seriously injured. At this moment, they were all in high spirits, joking and joking while waiting for the city guards to check their identities, and the city gate was bustling with excitement.

Ye An and Chen Qianshui smiled to see the students under them laughing wildly, and they also looked at each other and smiled, but after they laughed, they all saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.

When they went out of the city this time, they had received Xiao Chongyan's order to do an extremely dangerous thing.

——They want to lure the army of ghosts to attack the city ahead of time.

Therefore, the hunting and killing of the two teams took a full day and night, almost reaching the end of the entire battlefield.Under the leadership of Ye An and Chen Qianshui, the two fronts covered each other, and almost killed a back and forth in the ghost camp in a desperate posture. It can be said that there were many dangers along the way, and everyone was dying. wandering online.

Fortunately they succeeded.

Behind them, the army of ghosts was gathering, biting their tails tightly and chasing them. They must have been confused by their attitude of hunting at all costs this time. They believed that Hedong was at the end of the road, and wanted to break out to the west for outside support.

This is naturally the best result expected in Hedong.

But thinking about the backside of this order, the reason why Hedong wants to speed up the offensive of the ghost clan is that on the one hand, he wants to control the rhythm of the war in his own hands, and on the other hand, it is not because the situation in the imperial capital is really bad, and Xiao Chongyan wants to attack as quickly as possible. Stabilize the battle situation in Hedong, so that we can rush to the imperial capital as soon as possible?

It can be said that the battle in Hedong is just a small dispute in a corner, and the battle that started now may just be the beginning of a bigger and deeper storm.

Where this storm will eventually sweep, and how many people will be dragged into it-no one can predict.

……

……

"The identity verification is complete, open the city gate!"

The defenders on the city gate finally responded, and then the formation was opened, the heavy city gate fell, and the two teams quickly entered the city, leaving Shen Shenyan far behind.

Above their heads, the sky was gradually brightening, and a figure in white clothes was looking at them from afar. His slender figure was illuminated by the skylight, and the sharp-eyed students saw it, which immediately caused a burst of surprise and joy.

"—It's His Royal Highness!"

His Royal Highness personally stood guard at the top of the city, waiting for them to return in victory!

"Go back and recuperate quickly, don't be ashamed of yourself here - His Highness will be happier when you recover from your injuries and continue to fight the enemy."

Seeing this, Ye An scolded with a smile, and drove all the students back to rest, then climbed to the top of the city together with Chen Qianshui, and came behind Xiao Chongyan.

The two bowed their heads and saluted: "Your Highness, we are back."

"Yeah." Xiao Chongyan didn't turn his head, but said softly, "You did a good job."

His gaze has been falling far away in the distance, and the gazes that the students saw just now are only because Xiao Chongyan is looking through their backs to see the still dark night in the distance.

On the distant horizon, the sky had only just brightened up, but it was quickly shrouded in black mist, hundreds of thousands of ghosts gathered in one place, and the ghostly aura soaring into the sky was so thick that it was almost real.

Before the army, there were three more people.

A woman with an ethereal figure and colorful fingers, weaving dreams; a short assassin hidden in the shadows, with a looming figure; and a man in red with red thread wrapped around his hands and heavy makeup.

Dream Weaver, Shadow Guest, Hong Xianlang.

Among the seven craftsmen, nearly half were present.

"They ran away last night, what a bunch of trash."

At this time, another cold voice sounded contemptuously, and a man with a terrifying appearance and a strange appearance suddenly appeared at the front of the army, holding a long whip in his hand. The great cultivator in the prison, the ghost clan beili.

"They failed to break out of the siege last night, and now they are at the end of the road. Their morale must be low and they are vulnerable." He turned his head and said to the three craftsmen behind him: "You three, if you can't kill the few seeds of cultivation in the city, then you will all be killed." Die here, don't go back and be ashamed."

After finishing speaking, Beili ignored the three people who were kneeling on the ground behind him, bowing their heads and commanding orders. Instead, they looked at the majestic high city in front of them, and sneered endlessly with a strange and bloodthirsty look in their red pupils.

"Hedong County, the most dangerous pass in Donghuang?" He said disdainfully, mockingly, "A group of cowards who don't even dare to fight the enemy head-on and only know how to ask for help... I'd like to see if you can rely on this City - how long will it last!"

"The whole army listens to the order, marches at full speed, and captures Hedong County! Let the master's dark sky rise from the east of the river and come down to the world!"

This sentence falls——

In the darkness, countless scarlet eyes lit up at the same time, and the eyeballs turned, all looking in the same direction.

Where their gazes fell, there was also a gaze looking at this place accurately through the darkness.

Xiao Chongyan stood alone on the towering east city, dressed in white, looking at the ghostly aura soaring into the sky with a calm expression, and slightly curled the corners of his mouth.
