In the evening, a group of us gathered happily in the camp. The delicious wine and delicious food made everyone temporarily forget about the current predicament. Except for Wen Yan who seemed a little absent-minded, everyone else was very happy.
"Sister Wen Yan, what's wrong, the food and wine are not to your liking?" Yun Chan said with a smile.
"No way, sister Yunchan, you said that if the human and demon clans are fighting together, will the Tianjian Sect send us as cannon fodder?" Wen Yan said worriedly.
"Sister Wen Yan, you have the Heavenly Sword Order. They shouldn't dare to do this blatantly! Besides, there are still five months until the Mass Burial City is opened. It's too early for the demon clan to attack. Don't worry about it." Yun Chan said.
"Sister Yunchan, I just hope we can make plans early. If they send us to be cannon fodder, how should we deal with it?" Wen Yan said.
"Every time Tianjian Sect goes to Mass Burial City, they always win. In the end, they have the most people alive. This is definitely not an accident. We small sects all go to die in the end." Xue Shan said.
"Does Brother Xueshan know the inside story?" Yun Chan asked.
"This is not really an inside story. I once overheard our Blood Knife Sect ancestor mention it, because opening the Mass Burial City requires the cooperation of the human and demon races, so every time there is a battle in the Mass Burial City, the human and demon clans They will not kill each other. No matter who wins, they will be merciful and spare a hundred lives. If they kill them all, the losing party will not cooperate next time. Over the past countless years, the two races of humans and monsters have had their own victories and defeats. When the human race wins, the situation of each sect is good, and many people can survive. When the human race loses, it is miserable for small sects like us. Basically, the whole army is wiped out, and the people who survive in the end are basically the people of Tianjian Sect." Xue Shan said.
"I asked why the survival rate of Tianjian Sect is so high every time. It turns out that it is like this. So if the human race loses this time, will we all die?" Yun Chan said.
"Theoretically, this is the case, so Miss Wen Yan said that we should make plans early, and I think it makes sense." Xueshan said.
"What's the plan? Is it possible that we can't kill all the people in Tianjian Sect?" Yun Chan said angrily.
"Don't talk nonsense, be careful to be overheard! The Southern Territory belongs to the Tianjian Sect. We can barely kill a few or even dozens of people secretly here, but we have to kill hundreds of people from the Tianjian Sect. How could we hide it? Even if we can get out of the Burial City alive, what will we do after we get out? The power of the Tianjian Sect is beyond our imagination, so we must not have any luck." Wen Yan said sincerely.
"Then we have no choice but to fight head-on with the demon clan. If we win, we still have a chance to live, but if we lose, we will definitely die!" Xue Lin said.
"That's not necessarily the case! There are two ways to survive now. One way is to defeat the demon clan, even if we can't win, even if we are evenly matched, the other way is to let others kill the people of Tianjian Sect. Let's find a way to hide. Enter the remaining 100 people. But no matter which method we use, we must have enough strength." Wen Yan said.
"It's not easy to kill the people of the Sky Sword Sect! The Fiery Sword Sect, Ice and Snow Sect, and Heishuiya are all die-hard allies of the Sky Sword Sect. Unless there is internal strife among them, it is impossible to sneak into the remaining one hundred people. " Yun Chan said.
"Now we are too weak and have too few people. We do not have the ability to take the initiative unless others come to us for cooperation. At this critical moment of life and death, I believe that everyone does not want to die and will definitely find a way to catch everyone. A chance to survive, all we can do now is wait for the opportunity to come to our doorstep." I said.
"Waiting for the opportunity to come? Who will look for us? With the strength of those small sects, they can't look for anyone. Unless Ye Jianming looks for us, there might be a chance." Xueshan said.
"Ye Jianming and his wife are the dogs of the Tianjian Sect. How could they be looking for us? I would rather believe that Heishuiya is looking for us than them!" Yun Chan said angrily.
"Wait! Don't think too much, everyone. We won't go home until we get drunk tonight. From tomorrow on, we will concentrate on training. I hope that everyone's strength can be further improved before the war begins!" I said.
Everyone drank until late at night. Everyone was a little drunk. Except Wen Yan and I, everyone went back to the room to rest. I don’t know whether they did it intentionally or not, but in the end only Wen Yan and I were left toasting to each other. Seeing that everyone else had left, Wen Yan became bolder and came to my side gently, leaning on my shoulder, enjoying the quiet world between the two of them.
"Brother Yeyu, do you think we can survive this time?" Wen Yan asked.
"In the battle between humans and monsters, everything is unknown until the last moment. When it comes to life and death, even if I die, I will never let you die," I said. If it's really a matter of life and death, I can only agree to Lin Mo to join the Fengshen Guard in order to save Wen Yan and the others' lives. But after doing this, I will become the enemy of the human race. If I want to be with Wen Yan in the future, I will It’s as difficult as reaching heaven. Not to mention that the human and demon clans are incompatible with each other, even if Wen Yan is really willing to join the demon clan with me, what will happen to the Wen family in Tianshui City? She would never sit back and watch her family's destruction, nor could she join the demon clan.
"Brother Ye Yu, don't say that! If you want to die, we will all die together. I am willing to die with you in the Burial City!" Wen Yan said.
"Everyone?" I asked with a smile.
Wen Yan looked at me blankly, then lowered her head and said shyly: "Well, being able to be with Brother Ye Yu is better than anything else!"
"Don't worry, I promised Elder Wenhua that I won't let you die, I definitely won't!" I said.
"I have always believed in Brother Yeyu, always." Wen Yan said softly.
Wen Yan suddenly took out two jars of fine wine from her storage bag and said, "Brother Ye Yu, this is the fine wine brewed by our family's secret method. I only got two jars. Let's try it today."
"Oh? As Miss Wen Yan, we are only assigned to two altars. I want to have a taste of this!" I said teasingly.
"Brother Ye Yu, don't make fun of me. Although this wine is not precious, it is extremely rare for our family. Brother Ye Yu will know after you try it." Wen Yan blushed and lowered her head as she said.
I tore off the seal, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a smile, "It's indeed a good wine!"
As soon as the wine entered my throat, I felt that the wine contained huge power of the underworld, but now that I have reached the peak of the ninth level of the ghost general, I could no longer absorb the power of the underworld. This powerful power of the underworld spread all over my limbs. It wandered around in the bones, and finally merged directly into my bones. As soon as this netherworld power merged with my pale golden bones, I felt as if my body was being burned by fire, and my body instantly became like a ball. The fire, my body seemed to be about to collapse, and coupled with the drunkenness just now, my whole body fell to the ground.
"Brother Yeyu, what's wrong with you?" Wen Yan was startled and shouted loudly.
Wen Yan quickly picked me up, put me on the bed, and kept saying: "Brother Ye Yu, it's my fault. I shouldn't have given you this wine. Don't scare me!"
Wen Yan noticed something was wrong with my body. The clothes on my body were actually burned by the terrifying fire. Without saying a word, Wen Yan took off her clothes and hugged me tightly, wanting to help me share the unbearable pain. Fire.
My body suddenly felt a chill. In a dream-like state, I opened my eyes in my sleep and saw Wen Yan's affectionate eyes. I don't know if it was instinct or driven by the fire in my body. I moved toward Wen Yan. Yan's lips kissed her, and Wen Yan only heard a "huh" sound, and then closed her eyes. In this way, the two of us experienced an unforgettable night.
When I woke up the next morning, I found that the pale golden bones in my body seemed to be a little darker. Could it be that the wine Wen Yan gave me last night contained the essence and blood of mythical beasts? I couldn't figure out the reason for a while. I opened my eyes and found Wen Yan hugging me tightly. There seemed to be tears in the corners of her eyes, and there was no trace of her body. This shocked me. She just handed herself over to me, and I had to be responsible for her. I originally planned to propose marriage to the Tianshui City Wen family after leaving Mass Burial City, but now we actually became husband and wife first, which made me feel a little guilty. I kissed Wen Yan's face gently. Wen Yan didn't seem to wake up. I secretly kissed her lips again, only to find that Wen Yan was looking at me affectionately. I felt a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Wen Yan, wake up. Last night, I made you feel wronged last night. Are you willing to be my wife?" I said. Actually, I wanted to ask what was in the wine last night? But when the words came to my mouth, I still shrank back. I thought to myself that since we were already married, it would be really shameless not to express my attitude.
Wen Yan nodded shyly and said, "Brother Ye Yu, call me Yan'er."
"Yan'er, the wine you gave me last night seemed to contain the essence and blood of mythical beasts. It's very magical. Do you know what kind of mythical beast essence and blood it is?" I asked.
"I don't know either. My ancestor gave it to me, saying it can strengthen my physique and let me use it when I overcome the third level of thunder tribulation." Wen Yan said softly.
"It turns out that in this space, thunder tribulation cannot be triggered. I am now at the peak of the ninth level of ghost general and cannot absorb any more power of the netherworld. Therefore, this powerful power of the netherworld is in my body, just like Like a ball of fire, if it weren't for you, I might have died last night. Yan'er, thank you for saving me!" I said.
"It's my fault. If I hadn't given you this wine, Brother Ye Yu wouldn't have." Before Wen Yan could finish her words, I kissed her again.
