617, the master and apprentice are exhausted

Baili Qinghong's escape did not make everyone panic or worry. The battle for hegemony in the world is not a fight between people in the world. Even if Baili Qinghong's strength is higher than Tuoba Xingye, it cannot be a big threat without enough power. Now, neither Tianqi nor the Northern Jin Dynasty will give Baili Qinghong a chance to make a comeback. In the future, the only thing waiting for Baili Qinghong is to be endless wanted and chase. With Baili Qinghong's current reputation, no matter where he goes, he can only be a rat crossing the street and has nowhere to stay.

So Chu Ling and others focused on the battle in front of them first. With Tianqi and the soldiers of the Clan joining forces, the Southern Army, which had just begun to rise, was inevitably defeated again. They were originally following Baili Qinghong with arduous ambitions to gain a good future, but they did not expect that their entirely thought allies had already joined forces with their enemies. The Southern Army was caught off guard, and Tuoba Xingye was in charge of more than 300,000 Southern Army, and even before they could support it for more than a day, they were defeated.

After the war, Han Tianning and Yu Fanzhou, who were stationed in Rucheng, retreated back to Qingzhou with their troops. The people of the original Tianqi in Rucheng were also retreated with them. Although the Tianqi soldiers and horses needed to temporarily withdraw from Yanzhou in the agreement between Chu Ling and Tuoba Luo, Chu Ling did not give up the Tianqi people who had just been rescued. They will temporarily live in Qingzhou or go south to Runzhou or even Jiangnan, and the Tianqi Imperial Army and the Cavalry of the Clan will temporarily quit the battle with Qingzhou Yanzhou as the boundary. After these two years of high-intensity war, either side needs time to recuperate. It is precisely because of this that Tuoba Luo easily agreed to Chu Ling's proposal for a ceasefire.

Chu Ling and Tuoba Xingye stood side by side on the hillside, watching the two soldiers and horses heading in two completely different directions. The difference is that the team of the Apocalypse troops also carries many ordinary people who support the elderly and young. Although they were forced to leave their hometown, these people's faces were no longer as tranquil as before, and even had more things called anger.

"I still don't know whether this choice is right or wrong." Tuoba Xingye looked into the distance and said in a deep voice.

Chu Ling smiled faintly and turned his head to look at him, "But, Master still agrees, right?" If Tuoba Xingye insisted on killing Jun Wuhuan, the ending would never be as smooth as it is now."

Tuoba Xingye looked down at the woman in red standing in front of him and said, "The plan of Lord Cangyun City is very effective. The tribe has had too much internal friction in recent years. With the current strength of the Northern Jin Dynasty, Tianqi and Baili Qinghong can only choose one of them. Tuoba Luo chose Baili Qinghong, and I understand his choice." Tuoba Luo is the ruling man, and he may not be unable to see the threat from Jun Wuhuan and Princess Shenyou, but before they cause a greater threat, Tuoba Luo must firmly hold the power in his hands. Baili Qinghong is the most direct threat.

"But, Master wants to choose Jun Wuhuan?" Chu Ling smiled slightly, "Why did Master give up?"

Tuoba Xingye sighed lightly, "It's probably because I'm old, I try my best to try. Since I failed... maybe it should be like this."

Chu Ling blinked, "Master doesn't look like someone who believes in fate."

Tuoba Xingye no longer answered her question, but instead asked, "If Jun Wuhuan can't survive, the entire burden of Tianqi will be on you in the future. Are you sure, can you get up?" Chu Ling shook his head and said, "Master, even if Jun Wuhuan really... I will not be the only one in Tianqi in the future. Look..." Chu Ling pointed to the end of the road below, and Han Tianning sat on the horse's back with vigorous vitality on his young face. He was turning his head and looking at the direction of Rucheng behind him, his big eyes were full of determination and heroism, as if saying: We will come back.

A little further away, there were Feng Zheng, Yu Fanzhou, Yun Xu, Huang Jingxuan, Shangguan Yunru and others. They did not look back, and their straight backs seemed to be covered with a layer of halo in the sun. Even ordinary soldiers and people did not look lost or sad on their faces, but their desire to go home and joy in the future.

Tuoba Xingye didn't say anything for a long time, and at that moment he seemed to have become a little older. Looking back carefully, Tuoba Xingye couldn't even remember the outstanding young generals of the Clan people over the years. The generals in the Clan army seemed to be the ones twenty years ago, but a large part of them gradually grew old and died. However, the Apocalypse is no longer the Apocalypse of the Twenty years ago. They are younger, more vital and ambitious.

After closing his eyes slightly, Tuoba Xingye felt a cold feeling in his heart.

Chu Ling naturally noticed the murderous aura that burst out in an instant, but she did not move any action and still stood calmly beside Tuoba Xingye as if nothing had happened.

After a moment, Tuoba Xingye's murderous aura gradually retracted. At that moment... Chu Ling even felt that she could not realize that Tuoba Xingye was a top master with martial arts. He seemed to be just the most ordinary old man. Apart from his tall and straight figure, he could not tell at all that he was unique, and the forcing momentum in the past disappeared without a trace.

Chu Ling said: "Congratulations to Master."

Tuoba Xingye looked back at him, his eyes becoming more and more profound and distant, "I will come out of seclusion tomorrow. I guess today is the last time we meet in this life."

Chu Ling bit the corner of his lips lightly, "Thank you for your teachings, Qu Sheng is unfilial and has made his master embarrassed."

Tuoba Xingye shook his head and said with a smile: "It is also a comforting life to be able to accept the princess of God as her disciple. Go, the relationship between you and I have ended, and we don't have to see each other again in the future." After that, Tuoba Xingye turned around and walked towards the small road to the north. This time he did not use light skills, but walked forward step by step slowly, just like the most ordinary traveler.

"Disciple, say goodbye to Master." Chu Ling lowered his head, knelt on one knee and whispered.

Tuoba Xingye did not look back, but just waved his hand casually and gradually got farther and farther away.

"The golden swords and iron horses are crippled, and the ice rivers break into blood. The map of domineering and heroic work is empty in an instant. I woke up in a dream for twenty years... Sheng'er, I'd like to do it myself." Tuoba Xingye's voice faintly came into Chu Ling's ears, but the figure in front of him went further and further away, and finally disappeared.

Chu Ling stood up, looked at the direction where Tuoba Xingye disappeared and let out a sip.

"He is very powerful." Nangong Yuyue, who had arrived at some point behind him, suddenly spoke.

Chu Ling turned to look at him. Nangong Yuyue was wearing white clothes and looked cold, as if the changes in the past few years had left no trace on his face. He was still the stunning Master Nangong in Shangjing Imperial City back then. Chu Ling looked at him and raised his eyebrows slightly, and Nangong Yuyue frowned and said, "If he wanted to kill you just now, you would definitely not be able to escape."

Chu Ling nodded and smiled, "I know." Of course she knew that if Tuoba Xingye really wanted to kill her, she would never be able to avoid it. At that moment, Tuoba Xingye seemed to have become an ordinary person who could not know martial arts, but it was precisely this that he did not show any trace that seemed even more terrifying. In other words, Tuoba Xingye's strength had reached a new level, a level that those who were rolling in the world might never reach in their lifetime.

It is precisely because you know that you can't hide, so you don't have to hide anymore, because that's meaningless.

"Mr. Nangong, what are your plans in the future?" Chu Ling asked. Tianqi and Beijin temporarily ceased to fight. After dealing with these things, she was about to leave here. Now Old Man Yun and Jun Wuhuan are not here, and Nangong Yuyue has just helped her. She should ask whether it is reasonable or not.

Nangong Yuyue was silent for a long time before saying, "It's time for me to leave."

After saying that, he turned around and floated away, as if he had completely forgotten his entanglement with Chu Ling over the years.

Fu Leng, not far away, respectfully bowed to Chu Ling and followed him with the people. Now there are not many people left in the White Tower, but these people still have no intention of leaving with Nangong Yuyue. No matter what Nangong Yuyue's attitude towards them, Chu Ling feels that Nangong Yuyue can be followed loyally, right?

Among those figures, Chu Ling saw a familiar figure.

Yang Wanru.

Yang Wanru looked much thinner than before, and even had a bit of solemn look between her eyebrows. But the look of looking back at Chu Ling seemed much calmer. She looked back at Chu Ling walking at the end, but she still chose to follow. Once some people chose a path, they would not look back, no matter whether the path was right or wrong.

Looking at Nangong Yuyue and his group disappearing at the end of the road, Chu Ling curled her lips lightly. Looking around her, she felt helpless again. In the end, did she become single?

"Princess." A horse galloped in front of him, and the knight on the horse turned over and got off the horse and said respectfully: "Princess Qi, Baili Qinghong took Tuoba Mingzhu hostage and headed to the northwest."

Chu Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, "Northwest?"

"yes."

Chu Ling nodded and said, "Well, after the Qingzhou matter is handled properly, it's time for us to set off. Before we knew it... it's already autumn."

The man stood up, "Yes, princess."

Chu Ling turned around and walked forward, asking, "What's the news about Shangjing?"

The man said: "Tuoba Luo issued a killing order, and the whole north is wanted by Baili Qinghong. As long as his trace is found and reported, he will be rewarded. Therefore, Baili Qinghong dares not reveal his whereabouts all the way now, and is very cautious." Chu Ling nodded, "Tell Baili Qinghong's walk to the people of Northern Jin."

"yes."

"Duan Yun and Li Dan shouldn't come back, right?"

"Young Master Duan and others have set off a few days ago. I guess it's time to go to Qingzhou in the past two days."

Chu Ling nodded, "Very good, I can rest assured when they come back." Thinking of Jun Wuhuan and others who left first, Chu Ling's eyes were a little more worried. I don't know if Jun Wuhuan woke up, but now I finally have a moment of breathing, and I hope everything goes well.

"When I pass the order, I will sail to Qingzhou during my departure. Han Tianning, Dou Yang and Di Jun are stationed in Ningzhou, Shen Huai is stationed in Huizhou, and Jiang Jishi is stationed in Cangyun City. The rest of the people are stationed in their respective places, and all the affairs in the north will be handled by Huan Yu and Yun Xu!"

"Yes, princess!"
