The rain has subsided, but the wind has increased, and thunder is flashing among the clouds.
The man in black stood outside a wall of the black tower, looking at the dark clouds above his head and chasing away the scattered gravel in the rain.
Although the thunder above the head appears and disappears, if you look carefully, you will feel that the thunder in the black clouds only gathers on the black tower.
The man in black wore a mask, and his expression was invisible, but his cold and stern appearance looked even more gloomy under the dark night and rain. The only thing that could slightly reveal his identity was the long knife wrapped in black cloth at his side.
"Who is it? How dare you break into the palace!"
In the rain, Hou Jun, dressed in silver armor, suddenly appeared and stood in front of the man in black. His whole body was wrapped in a warm energy, like a fluorescent light in the dark night, twinkling and eye-catching.
That faint infuriating energy was like a layer of raincoat, blocking all the raindrops around me. Even if I stood in the rain, there was no trace of moisture on my body.
The man in black did not speak, and did not even look at Hou Jun in front of him. He just drew the sword without hesitation. The scabbard fell into the rain, and the man disappeared with the light of the sword.
In an instant, a bolt of thunder and lightning exploded from the sky, and the entire palace was illuminated.
The accumulated water on the ground reflected the silver light, projecting the back of the man in black, leaving only a long shadow.
And he was heading towards the Black Tower step by step.
When...
With a soft sound, Hou Jun's sword fell to the ground. As his whole body fell softly to the ground, the electric light finally disappeared and everything returned to darkness.
Boom...
The rolling thunder came slowly, instantly erasing everything that happened outside the black tower of the palace, as if nothing had happened.
…
"Stop!"
The two women who were walking carefully in the rain suddenly stopped.
After the thunder just now, Chunjiao stopped Chuntian who was behind her.
Springfield frowned: "What's wrong?"
Chunjiao also frowned: "I seemed to have felt a strong aura just now, but it disappeared instantly..."
"..."
Springfield didn't answer. She couldn't understand the perception of what was going on in the minds of the great warriors, let alone such ethereal things as breath.
Chunjiao was very confident. She believed in what she had just felt and became very vigilant.
"Very close...very close to us..."
"What's close?"
"That disappearing breath..."
"What does it matter?"
"If I guessed correctly, a grandmaster should have been severely injured in an instant."
"……Then?"
"A person who can severely injure a grandmaster and make his true energy disappear in an instant is definitely an extremely dangerous existence. And that aura is very close to us, which means that the person who can severely injure the grandmaster is nearby. Moreover, there was only one breath in the battle just now.
I am familiar with the master's true energy, but I don't feel the breath of the second person. Only you Japanese people can do such a battle. And among the Japanese people, except for your leader, I really can't think of a second person.
personal."
At this time, Chuntian finally understood: "You mean that Lingsi is nearby."
Chunjiao nodded seriously and looked around.
It didn't matter what I saw, I suddenly saw the black tower separated by a wall.
"How...how did we get here..."
"Here?" Chuntian heard the uneasiness in Chunjiao's words and couldn't help but look up and around. Except for the gloomy black tower in front of him, he didn't find anything different.
Chunjiao didn't know how to explain it, so she could only urge Chuntian to leave quickly, but she had to try to control her breath and voice.
The two women had not walked a few steps when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps in front of them.
The heavy rain has not ended yet. The water on the ground is very deep. The sound of footsteps in the water is very obvious, but at the same time, the fluctuation of zhenqi in front cannot be felt.
Chunjiao was very nervous, wondering if she would really meet that Lingsi?
He immediately drew out his soft sword and stared at the corner where the footsteps came from.
"Da da da……"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and Springfield felt a little embarrassed as he pressed the wound on his lower abdomen, so he had no choice but to step aside.
Under the dark clouds, no shadow could be seen, only a dark figure rushed out from the corner. Chunjiao rushed towards that person without thinking.
But just as Chunjiao made a move, the figure coming out of the corner in front seemed to fall in a panic, and suddenly fell into the middle of the waterlogged road.
Chunjiao immediately stopped her hand, feeling a little more doubtful in her heart.
If this person is really Ling Si, then with his ability, he can't run and fall down even if he is running, right?
And judging from his movements, he doesn’t look like a person who knows Kung Fu.
.
With doubts, Chunjiao arrived in front of the man. Before Chunjiao could speak, the fallen figure had already stood up. At the same time, he was very frightened and backed away, shouting repeatedly: "Go away! Go away! Don't get close to me..."
…”
"I..." Chunjiao frowned. At the same time, she felt that the voice was very familiar, so she asked tentatively: "Empress?"
Hearing this familiar name, the figure not far away was stunned. After a few seconds, he tentatively asked: "Are you..."
Hearing this voice again, Chunjiao felt even more convinced.
"Empress, is it really you? I am Chunjiao!"
"Chunjiao...Chunjiao!"
The other party's words were full of excitement. After standing still, he took off his raincoat hat and let the raindrops fall on his face.
Seemingly confirming Chunjiao's identity, the other party rushed over without caring about anything and threw herself into Chunjiao's arms: "Really...is it really you?"
At this time, Chunjiao also confirmed that the other party was the Queen.
It's just that the Queen is now in an indescribable embarrassment. She seems to be too frightened and her face is very ugly.
"This...what is going on?"
"Someone...someone...entered the black tower! Hurry...stop him quickly! Don't let him see the people inside!"
After listening to the Queen's words, Chunjiao was a little dazed. She turned her head and looked at the black tower, thinking in her heart, and asked in a low voice: "Someone has entered the black tower? You can't let him see the people inside? My queen, what is hidden in this black tower?"
And what happened just now?”
"I don't know...I don't know anything..."
"Empress, why are you here alone? Where is the personal maid beside you?"
"I didn't let them follow me, only Hou Jun, but...but he...he died. He was killed with one knife...Chunjiao, you have to protect me, do you know?"
As the Queen spoke, she clutched Chunjiao's clothes tightly, as if she had lost her soul in fright.
"No! You can't protect me now. You have to stop that person and don't let him enter the black tower!"
Chunjiao thought of something and felt that her guess was correct.
"Empress, if that person kills Hou Jun with one knife, then I'm afraid I won't be able to stop him..."
"Then...what should we do?"
"Empress, why don't you take me to see Mr. Hou first..."
