Nebula Empire, Imperial City Dungeon.
Hearing Gan Tai's words, Ye Linglong was immediately speechless.
What Gan Tai said was indeed correct. She knew Nangong Jing's cruelty and bloodthirsty better than anyone else, but no matter what, Nangong Jing would always be her husband. How could she allow Gan Tai to slander him like this!
Nangong Yueze was not interested in paying attention to the dispute between the two of them. He directly raised his hand and used mind-reading skills on both of them at the same time.
In less than a moment, he saw Zi Yuan's appearance from the two people's sea of consciousness.
That face made Nangong Yueze feel vaguely familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
"Your Majesty..." Seeing Nangong Yueze's expression, the prison officer on the side reminded him in a low voice.
Nangong Yueze came back to his senses, waved his hand expressionlessly, and said, "Okay, let's put them all back in the dungeon."
"yes."
…
Outside the imperial capital, deep in the woods.
Nangong Jing sat blankly at the place where Zi Yuan disappeared for a long time, until he heard a burst of noisy footsteps coming from a distance.
"Come, please go over there and take a look! His Majesty has issued an order to search for Nangong Jing's whereabouts throughout the Nebula Empire!" A general ordered loudly.
"Yes!!" several soldiers responded.
Seeing this, Nangong Jing couldn't care less about his sadness and hurriedly hid into the dense jungle on the side.
Not long after, a group of well-equipped soldiers appeared where he had just been.
"It's strange. I clearly saw Nangong Jing running this way before, how come he didn't?" A soldier muttered, frowning in confusion.
"Let's look further ahead! We must not let him escape!" said another soldier.
"Yeah! Let's go!!"
Nangong Jing observed in secret for a moment. Although he wanted to kill the soldiers several times, he held back in the end.
He knew that if he killed them now, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of other pursuers, and Nangong Yueze would be alerted by then. It would probably be even harder for him to escape then!
Thinking of this, Nangong Jing had no choice but to hibernate patiently, waiting for an opportunity to escape from this place.
…
At the same time, the Nebula Empire Imperial City.
Nangong Yueze stood on the high wall, looking at the imperial city below, a hint of darkness flashed in his dark eyes.
Not long after, twenty lightning and thunder eagles descended from the sky, and then lined up neatly in front of Nangong Yueze: "Master!"
Nangong Yueze nodded, and then said in a deep voice: "No matter what method you use, I want to know Nangong Jing's location before it gets dark."
"Yes!!" Twenty lightning and thunder eagles responded in unison, and a moment later, they flapped their wings and flew into the night sky again...
…
Biluo Manor.
After the last auction item was sold, the Yinyue Pavilion ended the day's auction.
"I don't know where our pavilion master got so many rare treasures. In this whole day, we collected tens of millions of gold leaves alone." Zong Zhengheng glanced at the things he was packing next to him. Su Ho said with emotion.
Su Ho smiled lightly, "The Pavilion Master has already explained before that the Hidden Moon Pavilion will only take 30% of the gold leaves, and the rest will be donated to the poor people in the Nebula Empire who need help."
Hearing this, Zong Zhengheng couldn't help but be startled, and then said with a smile: "Our Pavilion Master is really compassionate."
"No, it's a blessing for the people of the Nebula Empire to have a king like him." Tang Yuan on the side sighed and praised.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Yuan saw Jiuge and Helian Wenyan walking towards this direction, "Look, isn't that the girl Jiuge that our pavilion master likes?"
Hearing this, Zong Zhengheng also looked over, "Hey, it's really her."
"What? Do you all know her?" Su Ho raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.
"Of course." Tang Yuan chuckled twice, "That is the person who is dear to our Pavilion Master. I have met her several times."
Su Ho smiled, and before anyone could speak again, she turned around and walked towards Jiuge, "Little girl, why are you still here?"
"Sister Su Ho, I'm here to ask you about Ozawa. He's been away for a day and hasn't come back. I don't know what's going on with him over there." Jiuge frowned slightly and asked anxiously.
"He's fine, but Nangong Jing escaped and killed many Imperial City soldiers." Su Ho said slowly.
"I have already heard from Ozawa about this matter. He said that it was the demons who rescued Nangong Jing."
"Yes." Su Ho nodded and said in a solemn tone: "Although the witch's cultivation is not too strong, it is more than enough to deal with those mortal soldiers."
"If that's the case, will the witch go to trouble Ozawa?" Jiuge asked quickly. When she thought of the danger that Nangong Yueze might encounter, her face immediately became nervous.
"Okay, don't worry too much about him." Su Ho patted Jiu Ge's shoulder and comforted, "The witch didn't dare to trouble him. She couldn't even hide from him, so how could she fall into a trap? ?”
"You...are you telling the truth?" After hearing Su Ho's words, Jiuge's face looked a little better, but his brows were still furrowed.
"Of course it's true. By the way, little girl, this is what he asked me to hand over to you." Su Ho said as he took out a blood-red, shiny stone from his sleeve and handed it to Nine songs.
"What is this..." Jiuge asked in confusion.
"This is the Bloodline Stone that you were interested in before. My Pavilion Master asked you to take it back to Zixu Academy." Su Ho explained.
Jiu Ge glanced at the bloodline stone. The stone exuded a faint blood-red luster, and was surrounded by slight fluctuations of spiritual energy. The moment she touched it, a wonderful touch suddenly spread throughout her. Everywhere in the body.
This feeling not only shook her spirit, but even some familiar memory fragments vaguely emerged in the sea of consciousness...
Seeing Jiu Ge's stunned expression, Su Ho was slightly startled, "Little girl, what's wrong with you?"
Jiuge came back to his senses and shook his head: "I'm fine, sister Su Ho. I just want to ask, where does this bloodline stone come from?"
Su Ho blinked, "I don't know about this. I heard my pavilion master say before that this blood stone is condensed with the blood of the phoenix, so it is very precious."
"Blood of the Phoenix?" Jiuge muttered to himself.
For some reason, she always felt that this Bloodline Stone seemed to have something to do with her.
"Girl Jiuge, this thing is too valuable, we can't take it." Helian Wenyan suddenly came over and said.
Jiuge paused for a moment, but did not push the Bloodline Stone out. Instead, he stuffed it into his sleeve, "Master, since this is Ozawa's wish, let's accept it."
"But..." Helian Wenyan wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw Jiu Ge's enthusiastic look, he swallowed back the words that came to his lips.
"By the way, Master, lend me this Bloodline Stone for a few days to play with. I will return it to you after a while." Jiuge stuck out his tongue playfully.
Seeing Jiu Ge's smile, Helian Wenyan no longer stopped him, "Okay, since you like it, then keep it."
Jiuge chuckled, then turned to look at Su Ho and said, "Thank you, sister Su Ho."
A moment later, just as the two were about to leave, a man wearing a long blue coat suddenly came to Jiuge. He first glanced at Helian Wenyan, and then handed a space storage bag to Jiuge, "Jiuge Song girl, someone asked me to pass this thing over to you."
"Ah? What is this?" Jiuge was stunned.
The man didn't say anything, just stuffed the things on Jiu Ge and left in a hurry.
"Girl Jiuge, who is this person?" Helian Wenyan on the side asked in confusion.
Looking at the man's leaving figure, Jiuge shook his head, "Master, I don't know him either."
Su Ho also glanced at the man's leaving figure, and then pointed to the space storage bag in Jiu Singer, "Little girl, let's see what's in this bag first?"
"Okay." Jiuge nodded, reached out and opened the space storage bag, but when she saw what was inside, her eyes widened in shock.
There are six things in the bag, including a spirit-gathering pill, a ten thousand-year ice lotus, a top-grade fire crystal, a colorful black stone, a feather with a bright green color and a pale green feather. Golden fluorescent high-level training secrets.
"Aren't these the few items that our Yin Yue Pavilion sold at the auction? Why are they all here now?" Zong Zhengheng came over in surprise and said.
"You're right." Tang Yuan saw this and joined in. "I remember very clearly that these things were bought by Feiyun Sect."
"Feiyun Sect?" Helian Wenyan frowned in confusion. When did his precious disciple become related to Feiyun Sect?
These six items together are worth tens of millions of gold leaves. Why did they give them all to Jiuge?
What is their purpose in doing this?
Thinking of this, Helian Wenyan couldn't help but raise his head and his eyes fell directly on Jiu Ge.
Jiuge looked at the contents of the bag, and an unspeakable emotion emerged in her heart. She remembered clearly that his grandfather, Broomhead, was in Feiyun Sect at the moment.
Could it be that these things were all left to him?
No, this is impossible!
The broom head is just an ordinary old man sweeping the floor. Where does he get the money to buy these things?
But if not him, who would it be?
After thinking for a moment, Jiuge turned around and chased the man in the direction he left.
"Girl Jiuge! Where are you going?" Looking at Jiuge's hurried away figure, Helian Wenyan shouted quickly.
"Master, I want to find that person just now!" Jiuge responded without looking back.
…
The other side.
Nangong Jing fled to a ruined temple that had been abandoned for a long time.
The temple is very dilapidated, and the walls are covered with cobwebs and dust. It's obvious that people have been here for a long time.
After making sure that no one was chasing him, he collapsed on the ground, gasping for air.
From yesterday to now, he has not had a drop of water all day long, and he has spent a lot of energy. At this time, he is already so hungry that his chest is touching his back.
After calming down for a while, he remembered the memory barrier that Zi Yuan left for him before he died, and quickly took out the small bottle from his arms.
According to what Zi Yuan said, he injected the spiritual power in his body into the bottle, and soon, a dazzling light lit up in the bottle...
"call!"
The next second, the scene in front of Nangong Jing suddenly changed.
It was a mountain forest, and the surroundings were extremely quiet. Apart from the rustling of the trees, there was no other sound.
"What place is this?" Nangong Jing murmured to himself.
