"Ah?" Yun Che's abrupt words made Lan Xueruo stunned for a while, and then he nodded directly: "If you are willing, of course you can. After all, no matter what the result is, participating in the ranking match is a very big battle.
Good experience can also lay a good foundation for participation three years later. However, only three people can participate in the royal family, and these three people need to be selected through fair competitions, and I do not have absolute decision-making power. Therefore, Yun
If junior brother really wants to participate in this ranking competition, he must enter the top three on the Inner Palace Tianxuan Ranking within half a year."
Yun Che currently replaces Murong Yi in the ranking of Tianxuan Ranking, ranking 73rd. In half a year, he has stepped from 73rd to the top three. Anyone who hears it will think it is impossible to achieve... and no one
Will believe that Xue Lang, the seventh on the Tianxuan Ranking, and Feng Baiyi, the thirty-sixth, have died in Yun Che's hands.
In other words, Yun Che's current strength must be at least above seventh place.
"I know." Yun Che nodded, looking at Lan Xueruo with soft but firm eyes: "I will strive for the qualification to participate in the ranking competition, and I am participating this time not for experience, but for extremely serious thought.
I want to participate...so, senior sister, I will be away for a while."
"Leave?" Lan Xueruo's eyes flashed, and then she hurriedly grabbed Yun Che's hand: "Where are you leaving? Why are you leaving?"
Yun Che held Lan Xueruo's little hand with his backhand and said softly: "Senior sister, do you still remember what I said to you that night? I said, I will give you a shoulder to rely on and fight for you no matter what happens.
A heavy burden... It's just that, although I have such a heart, I am too weak now and do not have such shoulders at all. I can't even intervene in what you bear. Otherwise, instead of being able to bear it for you, I will become
Your drag and worry may even become your weakness."
"When I received invitations from the Crown Prince and the Third Prince at the same time, Master Qin advised me to take the initiative to distance myself from you, because this is the only way that is best for you and a way of protecting myself. But I will never be able to do this.
Do. I have thought a lot about how to deal with the joint invitation from the Crown Prince and the Third Prince. In the end, after weighing all the things I have now, no matter how high my heart is and how proud I am, I can’t help but admit that the current me
, I have no ability or qualifications to intervene in the turmoil of the royal family, let alone share anything with you. At least, if the prince and the third prince want me to die, it will be easy."
"So, I couldn't make a choice about their invitation, that is, I couldn't choose one of them, let alone choose and not choose at the same time. All I could do was not make a choice and leave quietly."
This is the choice Yun Che made after careful consideration in the past few days.
As the crown prince and prince of a country, the power and masters under his command are so great that no one can imagine. After he left Liuyun City, he spent most of his time in the circle of the younger generation, and he could still stand out. But the royal family
However, it is not comparable to that of the younger generation. As far as the Xuanzhe is concerned, there will be no fewer than a few hundred people in the Earth Xuan realm under the Crown Prince and the Third Prince, and there must also be strong men in the Tianxuan realm, and there may even be some.
There are countless people who may be involved in the realm of Wang Xuan, and even the realm of Ling Xuan. No matter who Yun Che chooses, he will be involved in this circle. He has no power, and his profound strength is extremely low in this circle.
Yes, it only has influence on the younger generation. Apart from increasing Lan Xueruo's worries and concerns, what kind of trouble can it stir up?
As for the royal princess, Lan Xueruo sees these things more clearly than Yun Che.
Her lips moved several times, but she hesitated again and again. These days, she had been worried that Yun Che would be involved, and leaving was the safest choice for him. However, she was not willing to let Yun Che go at all.
Yun Che left because she could no longer imagine a life without him. I don’t know since when, Yun Che had become her spiritual support and sustenance. If he left just like that, she would be at a loss.
In the end, she chose to nod and said softly: "It's better to leave... no, it's the best. If you were just an ordinary inner disciple, even if they would win over you, they wouldn't be so eager and strong. But now you
Your influence in the Imperial City is too great, and your choice will largely guide the tendencies of the younger generation of practitioners. Therefore, no matter who you choose, you will be completely involved in it, and at the same time, you will be resented by the other party...
…even assassination.”
"These days, I have been trying to persuade you to leave the Imperial City temporarily... However, I can't let you go. In the Imperial City, my heart has never been able to settle down. If you also leave me, I...
...I..." Lan Xueruo held Yun Che's hand tightly and bit her lip.
Yun Che shook his head and said: "Sister, don't worry, I am only leaving temporarily, and the time I will leave will not be very long. In fact, the reason why I want to leave the imperial city is to avoid the invitation of the prince and the third prince.
The other half of the reason is that I want to go out and practice. Blue Wind Profound Palace is indeed a training place that countless profound practitioners dream of, but this place is too comfortable, there is pressure, but no coercion, there are injuries, but no death threats. I
I need a place that can train me better, so that I can have shoulders that you can rely on as soon as possible. Half a year...Senior sister, give me half a year. After half a year, I will definitely come back with a stronger self."
Half a year is actually a short period of time for a profound practitioner. Yun Che would compress the time to this extent. One reason is that the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament will be held in half a year, and the more important reason is that he is afraid that if time
Tai Chang, something big happened to the royal family, and he was not by Lan Xueruo's side.
"Then...have you thought about where you will go in the past six months?" Lan Xueruo asked worriedly.
"Not yet, but I believe I will find it soon after leaving the Imperial City." Yun Che said with a relaxed expression.
Lan Xueruo tried her best to suppress the overwhelming feeling of reluctance in her heart, and said softly: "Half a year is not long. Since you have chosen, I...I will be in the imperial city, waiting for your return with peace of mind. But,
No matter what, don't put too much pressure on yourself, let alone put yourself in danger... The reason why I still stay in the palace is because I can't leave my father behind. I went to the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce in person yesterday... But even if
It is the Black Moon Merchant Guild, and there has never been a Soul Burning Flower. If this is the fate of my father, then after my father dies, I will give up my identity as a princess. Wherever you go, I will go...what kind of royal family?
The fight, the hatred of patricide, it really doesn’t matter. As long as I have you in my future life, it will be enough, so don’t put too much pressure on yourself, okay?"
Yun Che's heart trembled violently, he stretched out his arms and hugged Lan Xueruo tightly... Her words were enough to make Yun Che never let her down.
However, for Lan Xueruo and Yun Che, the biggest pressure has never been the royal family dispute, but the Fen Juecheng of Fentian Clan!
"Junior Brother Yun, when do you plan to leave?"
"……Now."
"ah?"
"I will not give up my identity as a disciple of Blue Wind Profound Palace. Palace Master Qin and Yuanba also ask Senior Sister to inform me... I will be back in half a year... I will definitely come back!"
………………………………
Taking everything with him, Yun Che quietly left Blue Wind Profound Palace and Blue Wind Imperial City under Lan Xueruo's tearful eyes.
"Why such a sudden decision?" Behind him, the little fairy asked in a misty and cold voice.
The little fairy took the initiative to talk to him again, and Yun Che felt very comfortable: "It's not very sudden. I have had the thought of leaving many times in the past two days."
Although he had thought about it, he had always been hesitant. He would definitely not tell the little fairy that the reason why he suddenly left so decisively... was because her statement to Xia Qingyue gave him a great stimulus.
"Then where do you decide to go?"
Yun Che looked to the northeast and said slowly: "The place where mysterious beasts are rampant...the wasteland of death for one thousand eight hundred miles!"
"What?"
The name "Death Wasteland" actually made the little fairy with half-step of Wang Xuan's strength sound surprised in her voice: "You actually want to go there to experience? Do you know that it is called the paradise of mysterious beasts and mysterious practitioners?
Hell. Countless practitioners die in it every year.”
"I know, I heard my grandfather talk about it when I was very young. But I never thought that I would set foot in that place one day. I think that in the entire Blue Wind Empire, there is no place more suitable for training than there." Yun Che said very calmly.
said.
"Since you already have a place to go, why don't you tell her?"
Yun Che sighed quietly: "The Death Wasteland is one of the three most dangerous places in the Blue Wind Empire. The number of mysterious beasts in it is a hundred times that of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. If I tell her, she will worry about my safety day and night, and will have trouble sleeping and eating."
The little fairy made no more noise.
Yun Che put the heavy sword on his back, took out the map he bought in advance and took a look at it. With flying steps, he walked towards the north on foot, and soon disappeared at the end of the road, far away from the undercurrent of the Blue Wind Imperial City.
.
He is proud, but he is by no means reckless.
Temporary escape, just to return stronger!
————————————————————————
Ten days later.
The Death Wasteland is one of the notoriously dangerous places in the Blue Wind Empire. It stretches 1,800 miles from north to south and 1,600 miles from east to west. There are countless mysterious beasts entrenched in the wasteland, and most of these mysterious beasts have temperaments that are biased towards
Violent. The vicious reputation and dense distribution of mysterious beasts here also attract a large number of practitioners and treasure hunters, but every year, hundreds of thousands of mysterious practitioners die in it. This is how the "Death Wasteland" got its name.
The night is like a wash, the bright moon is high, and a sinister aura surrounds the area around the Death Wasteland all year round. In the distance, the long roars of mysterious beasts can be heard one after another.
Inns are located here one after another, and each one is filled with mysterious practitioners from all directions. Thirty miles further ahead is the area of the Death Wasteland. The guests in the inns are all people who want to break into the Death Wasteland.
Under the cover of night, a young man with a calm expression and a heavy sword on his back walked slowly towards the sinister atmosphere.
"It's finally here."
Looking at the light coming from the inn window and listening to the terrifying roar of the mysterious beast in the distance, the young man stopped, looked into the distance, and whispered to himself.
