North of Yandi City, deep in the Moonlight Woodland.
Ding Jilin escorted the convoy along the way. He frowned. Escorting the convoy was actually so concrete in the mission. It is conceivable that something will happen. This journey will not be peaceful, otherwise the convoy will not be refreshed directly back to the Sky Tower.
That’s it?
Sure enough, just a few minutes later, a rustling sound suddenly came from the forest.
"careful!" .??.
He hurriedly pulled out the Starfall Sword, frowned and said, "There is something in the forest!"
"What?!"
A group of patrol cavalry raised their spears one after another, and even the horses under their crotches were disturbed and struggled continuously.
The next moment, there was a constant "whoosh, whoosh" sound in the forest. It was a crossbow arrow. In the blink of an eye, the patrol cavalry fell down. Those crossbow arrows were very accurate, and many of them directly hit the patrol knight's throat, killing him with one blow!
The patrol cavalry is the army responsible for public security in Yandi City. It cannot be said to be a regular army. It is certainly not comparable to regular armies such as the Yulin Army, the Forbidden Army, and the Flame God Legion. Many of them are mixed soldiers and are far from being well-trained.
Far away, it quickly became a mess after being attacked.
"Don't mess around!"
Ding Jilin raised his long sword and "swish" the two swords split two crossbow arrows, and said loudly, "Raise your shield, form a shield formation, push forward and force them out, quickly!"
However, the group of patrolling cavalry became a chaotic mess, and they were constantly hit by arrows and fell off their horses.
It’s over, it’s so bad that I can’t even carry it!
A few seconds later, figures emerged from the forest. They were all high-level NPCs. They were all masked. They used long swords, short knives, crossbows, etc. They should all be members of a certain aristocratic family or dead warriors.
Such existence.
However, they are all level 170 human king level quasi-boss, which is nothing to Ding Jilin, but fatal to those patrolling cavalry.
"kill!"
A dead soldier shouted loudly, "Kill all the guards and burn all the food and grass! Damn the Sky Tower, they can't even get a grain of food!"
"A group of garbage!"
Ding Jilin came close, and a giant dragon hit the five dead soldiers and stunned them in place. Then there was a set of AOE output, summoning Huahua, and they fought against the enemy together. They killed a group of dead soldiers and made them wail again and again, but there were too many dead soldiers.
Well, he alone could not stop this group of people from attacking the convoy.
"Burn the food and grass, quickly!"
A dead soldier threw a torch and was about to burn the food.
Ding Jilin was heartbroken when he saw it, and he chopped at him: "It's shameful to waste food, you bastards!"
But at this moment, the sound of horse hooves was heard in the distance.
"Swish..."
In the jungle, maple leaves grow automatically without wind
, all of them turned into sharp blades and shot at the dead soldiers in the distance, and blood suddenly spattered out. Those maple leaves turned into sharp weapons for killing people, cutting directly into the flesh, and even cutting through the throats of those dead soldiers. With this skill,
Yes, he must be a master close to the top.
In the distance, the sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded, and a group of cavalry from Yandi City appeared on the official road under the moonlight.
At the front of the cavalry, a female general wearing armor galloped on her horse. She was extremely beautiful. She was the eldest princess Lin Shutong. The cavalry behind her were all Yulin Guards, the most elite troops guarding the imperial city.
, it is said that the number is only 50,000, which is far inferior to the Forbidden Army, the Flame God Legion, etc., but it is known as the most elite cavalry in the entire Yandi City!
"Kill, leave no one behind!"
Lin Shutong passed by and opened her long sword to the left and right. Suddenly, the heads of two dead soldiers rose into the sky. As she swept past, wisps of dense sword energy were used. Suddenly, a group of dead soldiers stood on the spot unable to move.
After Lin Shutong passed by, their bodies continued to bleed. They were still standing, but they had no breath, and their bodies had long been chopped into pieces by the sword energy.
"Depend on……"
Ding Jilin frowned. He did not expect that the person who rushed to his rescue was actually Lin Shutong, nor did he expect that Lin Shutong's true combat power was so terrifying. Her combat power was probably comparable to that of Chen Xi, who was close to the quasi-god realm.
Amidst the sound of iron hoofs, a group of Yulin guards swept past, and their spears pierced the bodies of the dead soldiers with a "puff, puff, puff" sound. Although the dead soldiers all had some abilities and were legendary "martial arts masters"
, but when encountering heavily armored cavalry like the Yulin Guards, there is no way to fight them. Their attacks are not very capable of breaking through the defense, but the opponent's cavalry can push them across the formation.
In an instant, hundreds of dead soldiers died in the forest, and their bodies were carried and piled in piles beside the official road.
"Your Highness the Princess."
Ding Jilin rode forward, frowned and said, "Thank you."
"You are Welcome."
Lin Shutong said, "Come here and check the identities of these dead soldiers."
"Yes, Your Highness!"
A group of old soldiers stepped forward and looked at the deceased's belongings and face one by one. Soon after, a commander of Wanqi stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, this is the old tribe of Tongzhou Tianjihou Chu Yu'an, and his mansion."
Among the retainers and dead men, I have seen several of them."
"As expected."
Lin Shutong said, "I knew the people in Tongzhou would not give up."
Ding Jilin smiled faintly, "Is Tianjihou's power in Tongzhou so deep-rooted? Everyone is dead, how can his subordinates still make trouble like this?"
"Different."
Lin Shutong said, "Tongzhou is located in a remote area, and there are many aristocratic families. However, Tianjihou has been running Tongzhou for many years, and it is indeed deeply rooted. The interests of these noble families in Tongzhou are intertwined with each other. Although Chu Yu'an died,
But the people in power in Tongzhou are still the same group of people, and they naturally want to coerce the imperial court to fight against the Sky Tower in order to gain more benefits for Tongzhou."
As she said that, she smiled slightly, "I will lead the Yulin Guards to help you escort the food and grass. Ding Jilin, are you willing to go with me?"
"..." ??
Ding Jilin looked at Lin Shutong's exquisite and beautiful face and a pair of slender and lustrous legs. Apart from anything else, the character of the eldest princess was quite worthy of recognition, so he nodded and smiled and said, "Can you compare with Lin Shutong?"
It's my honor to travel with Shutong."
…
On the official road, the two rode horses and walked slowly in the back row of the motorcade.
The moonlight fell on Lin Shutong's face, making the eldest princess of the Chu Dynasty look even more beautiful and beautiful. She was born in the royal family, had an excellent temperament, and had practiced swordsmanship for many years. She was the favorite among practitioners.
The woman is a swordsman, so she not only has the aura of aristocrats, but also has the aura of a fairy. In addition, she has a near-perfect figure and face. Such a woman is admirable.
"Your Highness."
Ding Jilin rode forward slowly and said, "Why do you want to help me? In fact, we are enemies. You should also know the true relationship between the Sky Tower and Yandi City."
"I know."
Lin Shutong said softly, "The reason why my father abdicated the throne so quickly was precisely because of the fierce battle in the north. I also heard that you, Ding Jilin, once killed a king with a sword. If it weren't for that precious Nine-Turn Return Soul,
Dan, I’m afraid my father has passed away.”
"Since you all know, why do you still want to help me?"
"because……"
Lin Shutong raised the corner of his mouth lightly, revealing a pure and beautiful smile, and said, "Because I am not only Lin Shutong from the Chu royal family, but also Lin Shutong, a human sword cultivator. I can distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong. In my heart, the sky
The master of the tower, Shi Lan, has always been the mainstay of the human race. When my father decided to eradicate the Sky Tower, I was against it, but there were too many people who supported my father, so I couldn't do anything."
She looked at Ding Jilin, her beautiful eyes shining with light, "Selfishly, I should kill you with one sword, but from the perspective of the road, you and Shi Lan are the enemies of the three northern tribes, so naturally I, Lin Shu,
Tong’s best friend, not to mention the fact that you take care of Chu Feng, I should naturally be on your side, or..."
She chuckled softly, "I, Lin Shutong, am the person who least wants you, Ding Jilin, to have anything bad in the world."
Ding Jilin looked up at the stars and said with a smile, "Okay, I can rest assured that you are by Chu Feng's side."
Lin Shutong covered her mouth and chuckled. She glanced deeply at Ding Jilin and said, "You must remember to be careful of Chu Jincheng and Chu Hao. These two princes are closest to Chu Yu'an, and they are also among the princes in the south."
First, they will not sit back and watch the Yandi City royal family completely fall to the side of the Sky Tower."
"Um."
Ding Jilin nodded and said with a meaningful smile, "If you say that, you should be more careful."
"ah?"
Lin Shutong opened her mouth slightly and asked in surprise, "What do you care about?"
"These are the people you're talking about."
"..."
Lin Shutong pursed her red lips, thought for a long time, and said softly, "I understand."
…
Moving forward, Lin Shutong and Yu Linwei left, and the motorcade also refreshed in the early morning clouds.
"drop!"
The system prompts that the task has been completed. Please return to the Sky Tower to submit the task!
Ding Jilin took a deep breath. This procrastinating task was finally completed, but it had to be done. He even had a premonition that this task was actually just a foreshadowing, and it would definitely involve many more things later.
There are many follow-up plots, and all of them are main plots related to Yunze Continent.
Speaking of which, Lin Shutong is quite a nice person. Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, is a bit irresistible. I wonder if she is married yet.
Return to the Sky Tower, hand in the task, and get 1 lucky point.
After that, he took Lin Xixi and Chen Jia to have supper together, and after eating, they went back to their rooms to sleep.
I won’t go into details about how I was discovered by Lin Xixi when I was lying in bed scrolling through Douyin and liking a big-breasted girl.
…
Early next morning.
Ding Jilin woke up early, ate breakfast as usual, held a morning meeting, and took a nap during the morning meeting. He almost fell asleep leaning on Lin Xixi's shoulder. Danchuan beside him kept snoring, and Xiaozhu kicked him.
After waking up, I snored again within three seconds.
Admittedly, everyone is quite tired during this period.
However, after capturing the S-level guild station, we can relax a little.
The morning meeting is over and it’s time to go online.
"Whoosh!"
The moment Ding Jilin came online, a very pleasant ringtone came to his ears, and the full-level Lord Dongtian finally arrived——
"Ding!"
The system prompts congratulations. Your lord, the Holy Dragon's Nest in the Peak City of Cave Sky, has been successfully upgraded to level 10! At the same time, your auxiliary lord Freya has been successfully upgraded to the full level 100, and you will receive the Dragon Staff as a reward!
