Xiao Jingye couldn't stand it any longer. He drew his sword and followed her in sparring, saying, "What are you thinking? Being distracted while practicing swordplay is a taboo."
Xie Lingyan came back to her senses and said, "I always feel something strange."
"Really? Is it because you think too much, or is it your first time entering the virtual realm, because the spiritual power here is too strong, and you feel uncomfortable?"
"Is there this kind of saying?"
"Yes, I have seen some monks before who couldn't bear the powerful spiritual source in the virtual realm and chose to retreat. Listen to my master, entering the virtual realm is equivalent to entering one's own inner world to accept challenges. If you see it here
The strange and weird illusions are not caused by fog or someone’s deception, but by the thoughts and thoughts in my heart.”
"Is that so?" Xie Lingyan recalled the illusion she saw. She remembered that she had never thought about such a scene.
She knew that she thought about it day by day and dreamed about it at night, but the problem was that she had never dreamed of such a young man as bright as jade, or of a domineering and arrogant woman.
Yes, domineering.
That woman looks extraordinary.
Her aura is so powerful that when you see her, the first thing you see is not her face, but her demeanor, which is the aura that dominates the world.
Xiao Jingye told her not to think about it, "Since you want to practice swordsmanship, then I will practice with you and be more serious."
"Okay." She no longer thought about what the problem was. When she was strong enough, those unsolved mysteries would be solved.
With this thought, she felt at ease to accompany the noble prince to fight against him.
Her swordsmanship began to become steady and concise, and seemed to carry a majestic and vast momentum.
Xiao Jingye was shocked. He clearly saw her failing to practice swordsmanship alone. Why was her swordsmanship always so domineering and overwhelming when fighting with her, especially when she could easily overpower him?
Her level is obviously much lower than him?
Could this be the achievement of her own swordsmanship?
Xie Lingyan easily knocked away Prince Xiao's sword. She said, "Come on, keep practicing. If you can't master your moves, you are not allowed to stop."
Xiao Jingye: "..."
He was confused.
I just want to thank you, girl. Please see clearly that this prince is the crown prince of Tianyuan Kingdom. Are you trying to educate me?
No, for a moment, he felt like he had become a child, and she was an adult scolding an ignorant child.
Xiao Jingye suspected that he was also hallucinating. He raised his hand to cover his eyes and said, "Yan'er, don't scare me."
Xie Lingyan came back to her senses, coughed, she pretended to cough and said, "Sorry, I thought I was a great master."
"You might as well say that you are the leader of the sect?"
"Then am I very dignified?" Xie Lingyan asked with raised eyebrows.
Xiao Jingye was noncommittal. He turned around and picked up his sword and said, "I seem to be able to understand Senior Sister Chu. She would rather concentrate on practicing her swordsmanship than on improving her realm. This is the biggest headache for Master.
But it’s her favorite place.”
"It seems that Senior Sister Chu of yours likes swords very much, and I suddenly want to compete with her."
"There will be a chance."
"I hope so."
…
The two people were sitting on the cliff, overlooking the sea of clouds and black smoke below.
Mountains are rolling.
The sky and the earth are vast.
This Wanhe Peak is really high, like the tallest tree in the forest, it stands out.
The mountains below bow their heads, as if to protect this mountain peak.
Xiao Jingye said, "I still haven't found the golden scales I want."
He seemed disappointed and couldn't hide the loneliness in his eyes.
Xie Lingyan looked at him and asked, "Are those golden scales important to you?"
Xiao Jingye nodded, "It's very important. My mother is in trouble now. My father favors the imperial concubine. I'm walking on thin ice. I need to come up with something decent to prove myself, and the golden scales I'm looking for are my only chance to prove myself. But this opportunity
It’s very slim, the Imperial Master said that no one has seen that golden scale for hundreds of years, maybe it doesn’t exist at all.”
"If that's the case, why are you still looking for it?"
"Since there is hope, I always have to try. Is it possible that I will give up on myself?"
"Yes." Xie Lingyan didn't know how to answer him for a moment.
The situation in the palace is different from the fighting and killing outside. People can kill here even if they disagree with each other, but once there is a killing in the palace, the world will be in chaos.
Unless absolutely necessary, the center of power in the imperial capital must not be disrupted, otherwise the people will be displaced and all people in the world will suffer.
"But Xiao Jingye, you are the prince, and this status is enough for you to be justified."
Xiao Jingye smiled bitterly, he didn't know how to tell her about the situation where the glue could not be removed.
Although he is the prince, the future throne may not be his. Many people want him dead, and that person may include his biological father. No one can understand this irony and sad feeling of powerlessness.
Xie Lingyan was silent for a long time. She thought about it and wanted to ask again, "What's on the golden scales?"
Xiao Jingye said, "I heard from my mother that the golden scales contain the secrets of the Tao that can be used by cultivators to improve their cultivation. It is similar to the secrets of the divine book, and it is like a strong man having his own unique magic weapon."
Xie Lingyan finally understood. Obtaining a top-grade holy weapon would put herself on a higher level than others.
She thought for a long time and said, "If I say that I got the golden scales..."
Xiao Jingye turned to look at her. He looked at her for a long time.
Xie Lingyan looked back defensively and asked, "What to do?"
She was very worried.
I was afraid that he would make a sudden move.
The two of them were sitting on the edge of a cliff. If he pushed her down, she would be helpless.
Then Xiao Jingye stretched out his hand, as if he really wanted to do it.
Xie Lingyan reacted quickly, and he could stand up and avoid it.
Xiao Jingye's hand stopped in mid-air and said, "You don't believe me?"
"I……"
She couldn't believe it. Lei Chengyang's use of seduction and rebellion gave her a profound understanding of people's hearts.
Lei Chengyang and ‘Xie Lingyan’ grew up together. Not to mention being childhood sweethearts, they can be considered ordinary friends, right?
But what’s the result?
Lei Chengyang has now become a demon who wants to kill her.
He just wants her to die, you know.
The relationship between each other at a young age may be betrayed, let alone the acquaintance and encounter on the escape road?
Xiao Jingye retracted her hand and said, "I should have thought of it a long time ago."
"What?"
Xiao Jingye smiled bitterly and said, "You can own the Hanyan Sword. Do you think you are an ordinary person?"
"That's what I am."
"Xie Lingyan, why do you deceive yourself? Who is Ji Ronggao? She was the hope of the Ji family. If it weren't for saving your mother, Ji Ronggao would be a person with a high level of Mahayana Taoism. If her cultivation has never been lost, Lei Yonghu will definitely say
I dare not say anything, let alone someone who dares to come after you and her."
"You seem to know a lot?" Xie Lingyan felt that Prince Xiao was unusual. He kept secrets. Although he was still a young man, he was very mature and steady.
Xiao Jingye said, "I don't know much, I just know everything I need to know."
"Why do you think those golden scales are on my body?"
"Because you have the Red Flame Fire Phoenix, it should have surrendered because of the Cold Smoke Sword."
"..."
How come she doesn't know?
It’s the Cold Smoke Sword again. Is it that powerful?
