Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye it is already several months later.
Relying on her soul memory from two years ago, Lan Yue finally found the only way to go to Sky City, which was the orc territory of the Eastern Wasteland.
But before she entered the orc territory, she met Yun Ling, the head of the Yun family who was stationed here. At the same time, Qingchen happened to be training with Yun Yong in Northern Xinjiang.
When the three of them discovered that someone wanted to pass through the city defenses and enter the orc territory, Yun Yong was the first to stop him.
"Stop! Who are you? Do you know you can't break in here?!"
Lan Yue stopped when he heard this and looked at Yun Yong.
"Isn't this the northern border of the Eastern Wasteland? I'm about to go to the orc territory."
After Yun Yong saw Lan Yue clearly, he was immediately shocked. He didn't expect that there was such an unworldly woman in this world. Yun Yong was instantly impressed by Lan Yue's charming grace.
"Does the girl know that the orcs are very dangerous? They are extremely vicious and cruel to us practitioners. Why would the girl risk breaking into the orc territory?"
Lan Yue saw that Yun Yong had changed his previous rude attitude and explained to her the dangers of the orc territory with a smile, so she replied with a smile.
"I have something important to do and want to go to the orc territory. Can't I enter from here?"
Yun Yong immediately shook his head and replied.
"That's not what I meant. I'm just worried that you, girl, may be in danger if you enter the territory of the beast tribe alone.
You must know that those beasts of the beast tribe are all ungrateful and do all kinds of evil. If the girl is discovered by them, the consequences will be disastrous.
And not long ago, they launched an attack on our city defenses, and we killed and injured many brothers.
Therefore, girl, if you enter the orc territory now, they will think that we are provoking them again. Not only will you be in danger, girl, but we will also have to be prepared to fight. "
"He's right. The relationship between us and the orcs is relatively tense right now. If we didn't both need to repair it, I'm afraid we would still be fighting here.
Therefore, I advise you, girl, to listen to him and not break this hard-won tranquility. "
Yunling saw that Lan Yue didn't seem to want to give up, but he couldn't sit idly by. After all, it was his responsibility to ensure the safety of the entire northern territory.
Lan Yue has heard about the fact that Donghuang has been resisting the orcs from going south, but her purpose here is to enter the Sky City through the suspended tower in the orc territory.
Therefore, Lan Yue shook her head and said.
"This is the only way to the Sky City. I have no other choice. I hope you will understand. I promise that after entering the orc territory, I will make it clear to them and will not involve you."
When Yun Ling saw that Lan Yue refused to listen to the advice and insisted on destroying the existing peace, his face suddenly darkened and he looked a little displeased.
"Where did you hear such nonsense, and where is the Sky City? I see that you are young and beautiful, how could you have such a confused idea.
Do you know what will happen to the human women captured by the orcs? I have seen too many human tragedies over the years. Do you want to add one more? ! "
Lan Yue was slightly moved when she heard this, because she really didn't know that there was such a big conflict between the orcs and humans.
But just when she was about to explain, Qingchen, who was silent at the side, suddenly asked.
"Do you want to go to the Sky City?"
Only then did Lan Yue notice Qingchen, because he had always kept his aura introverted and kept it hidden.
"It turns out you are a swordsman."
Hearing Lan Yue's words, a look of surprise finally appeared on Qingchen's ancient and smooth face.
"Do you know the way of the sword?"
Lan Yue looked at Qingchen carefully, then smiled slightly.
"I have always liked swordsmanship, so I started practicing swordsmanship when I was eight years old. It has been more than ten years now, so I can barely understand it."
"With just ten years of sword practice, you can reach a level that is no weaker than that of a great swordsman. Your sword skills are so high that only Her Highness the Queen can match among those I know of.
It seems that you should be the girl from the Western Region who is the direct descendant of Sword Heart Lan Yue who has suddenly risen in recent years. My guess is correct. "
Qingchen realized from the very beginning that the kendo aura displayed by Lan Yue was something he had only seen in his life.
Immediately, Lan Yue smiled sweetly.
"Yes, I am Lan Yue. Who are you?"
At this time, Yun Yong couldn't help but interrupt and replied.
"This is my master Qingchen. He is the guard commander of our Eastern Wilderness Temple. The master broke through the realm of great swordsman five years ago."
However, Qingchen smiled faintly.
"Yun Yong, I often teach you to be low-key and to be self-aware. Have you forgotten all these things?"
"Master, with your swordsmanship, why are you so humble?"
Obviously, Yun Yong admires Qingchen's swordsmanship very much, because in his heart, no one in the entire Yuanhun Continent can surpass Qingchen's state of swordsmanship.
However, Qingchen did not reprimand Yun Yong for this, only that he remained calm and honest.
"Humility and prudence are qualities that every strong swordsman should possess. It should be noted that a slight difference in swordsmanship can make a difference of a thousand miles. If you cannot understand this truth, then all these years of practicing swordsmanship will be in vain."
Yun Yong asked half-understanding after hearing the words.
"But master, isn't it true? Kendo is about pursuing the ultimate in speed. Since what we practice is to surpass all limits, shouldn't we be more cautious and move forward bravely?"
After hearing the conversation between their master and apprentice, Lan Yue developed some respect for Qingchen, because his concept of swordsmanship was unique and he knew how to combine hardness and softness, which was something she could learn from.
Therefore, Lan Yue respectfully saluted Qingchen and said.
"It turns out to be Commander Qingchen of the temple. You're a polite woman. I've heard of Commander Da Rao's reputation as early as when we were in the Western Regions. I didn't expect that we would be lucky enough to meet today. This can be regarded as fate."
Qingchen admired Lan Yue's free and easy personality, and he saw a familiar shadow in Lan Yue.
"Girl, you don't have to be polite. Seeing you today reminds me that His Highness Lian Nian is also so high-spirited and unparalleled in the world.
It's just that your areas of expertise are different. I believe that with the girl's cultivation, even if she enters the orc territory, there won't be any serious problems.
Therefore, we will not hinder you anymore, but before you leave, I want to ask the girl to do me a favor. I don’t know if the girl is willing. "
Lan Yue didn't know what Qingchen wanted to ask her to do, but given Qingchen's status in Donghuang, and he still needed help from himself, this matter must not be too easy.
But now that he has spoken, Lan Yue's character will naturally not refuse, because she believes that Qingchen, as the guard commander of Donghuang Temple, will definitely not make any rude requests.
So Lan Yue replied with a smile.
"As long as I can do it, of course I am willing to help you. Commander Qingchen, that's all."
Qingchen nodded after hearing this.
"His Highness and the Beast King once made an agreement. As long as we do not take the initiative to invade the territory of the Beast Clan, the Beast Clan cannot provoke war at will.
However, since the only entrance from Yuanhun Continent to Sky City is in the territory of the Orcs, it is always inevitable for us to break the promise we made.
As time goes by, the beast clan no longer wants to believe in us, so I want the girl to give me a message to the current beast king. I, Qingchen, am willing to represent the practitioners on the entire Yuanhun Continent to fight the beast king fairly.
If I lose, from now on, we human cultivators will never step foot into the territory of the beast race. But if I win, then everyone in the entire Yuanhun Continent will be eligible to enter the Hanging Secret Realm. "
Hearing this, Lan Yue asked in confusion.
"Why doesn't Your Highness the Queen take action personally? Or wouldn't it be simpler for her to directly talk to the Beast King about this matter?"
Qingchen then sighed helplessly.
"Her Highness the Queen has left Yuanhun Continent."
"What? You are His Highness, she..."
Yunling was very surprised when he heard Qingchen's words, because all of them thought that Nujun had been in retreat, but they never expected that Nujun was no longer in Yuanhun Continent.
Qingchen nodded and continued.
"Her Highness has already broken through the martial arts realm three years ago. Therefore, she must leave Yuanhun Continent and go to the realm to continue her training.
I didn't want to do this at first, but in order to completely resolve the conflict between the orcs and our human race, I can only tell you this secret. "
"I see."
Lan Yue suddenly realized at this moment, but Qingchen would not hesitate to fight the Beast King for the sake of the practitioners on the entire Yuanhun Continent, so how could she sit idly by?
So, Lan Yue asked Qingchen.
"How high is the cultivation level of the Beast King?"
Qingchen shook his head and replied.
"I don't know exactly how strong the current Beast King is, but His Highness's ability to successfully go to the realm proves that the Beast King's strength cannot surpass the martial arts realm.
At the same time, two of my friends also went to the orc territory. With their physical skills, if they were unable to defeat the beast king, they would at least come back alive. However, they did not come back in the end, which means they might have succeeded.
In addition, we have investigated through various channels, and we can basically confirm that the strength of the current Beast King has not reached the peak of the Star Realm.
Therefore, I am confident that I can win this decisive battle. As long as the problem of the orcs is completely solved, I can leave Yuanhun Continent with peace of mind. "
Yun Yong asked Qingchen with some reluctance at this time.
"Master, do you really want to leave?"
Qingchen replied with a smile.
"This is my long-held wish. You have obtained the true inheritance of my swordsmanship in the past three years. You still have to rely on yourself to realize your future practice, and I also have a longer way to go, so you don't have to worry about me. I am still worried about leaving.
What's more, the master-disciple relationship between us may not be impossible to continue in the world in the future. Master is still very confident in your swordsmanship. "
It can be seen that Yun Yong's respect for Qingchen comes from the bottom of his heart. He is lucky to meet a master like Qingchen. However, such a rare master-disciple relationship makes Lan Yue beside him feel excited. A touch of touch.
"In that case, why not let me do it for you."
However, Qingchen shook his head and replied after hearing this.
"I'm afraid it won't work like this"
"Why?"
"Because you are a woman."
