There was a rustle in the grass, and the leader who was knocked away came out.
Aofeng went straight forward, first took off the black gauze covering his face, and then took off the hairpin on his head. His black hair was like a waterfall, scattered on his shoulders.
Lu Chen's expression was very complicated, joy, guilt, fear, and anxiety were intertwined together, and her body could not help but tremble slightly.
Aofeng put his hand on her snow-white neck. He could caress her lightly and comfort her, but he could also kill her with one move.
Lu Chen's breathing was heavy, her chest heaving, and she finally managed to say, "You, you won't kill me?"
Aofeng rubbed her neck, then moved up and through her black hair, "At that moment, I could tell your scent, how could I kill you?"
Lu Chen felt the long-standing and familiar tenderness, and suddenly burst into tears, "You should kill me, or at least hate me!"
Qicai sneered: "Your mentally retarded girlfriend doesn't seem to be really stupid!"
"Forget it, the past is over. I just want to protect you! Zhiyang sent you here just to test you. If you come back alive from here, he won't give you a way out."
"Why did he do this?" Lu Chen asked in surprise.
"Because he was the one who really killed Thrawn and took away the magic root. I was framed by him!"
Lu Chen quickly clarified her thoughts, "Did he threaten you with me?"
Aofeng was noncommittal and only returned his gentle gaze. Lu Chen was moved and wanted to kiss him, but Aofeng pushed him away gently, "I just want to protect you, but some things can never go back to the past!"
After returning to the mansion, Bai Li took her to take a shower and change clothes. She changed into a long white dress with long black hair and a crimson face. Bai Li exclaimed: "Sister, you are so beautiful!"
Lu Chen's expression was very reserved and her body was shaking slightly. Aofeng got straight to the point: "Please provide me with some useful information. First of all, where is my Ice Phoenix?"
"After encircling you, the Demon King rewarded the gods. Qi Jue refused all the rewards and only asked the Demon King for the cloak."
Aofeng nodded and asked again: "What is your mission?"
"The main thing is to investigate the situation. If possible, destroy the medicinal materials and alchemy equipment. Yang Shen said that the Demon King's birthday is approaching, so don't make too much noise!"
He wanted to ask more, but Bai Li interjected, "Master, why are you acting like an interrogator? Look how pitiful my sister is. She is cold, hungry, and has no rest. Let Xiaoli take good care of her!"
The two women left, Aofeng felt a little disappointed. Qicai mocked him, "Master, is it difficult to choose between new love and old love?"
"Actually, I still have selfish motives! Lu Chen's skill has been upgraded from recognizing magic power to recognizing breath. I will continue to support her until she can recognize the soul. This is a skill necessary for the mission."
"I can see how your little heart is pounding, your soul has been taken away!"
Aofeng ignored her, called his servant to call Bai Jin, and said sternly: "Select the best medicinal materials yourself, select the best pharmacist, and hurry up to refine a top-quality Yuan-Pui Yuan Dan to defeat Guanglingtang."
He described to Bai Jin what had just happened, and finally added: "I have obtained important information that the Demon King's birthday is approaching. At that time, you will present a birthday gift to the Demon King on behalf of half of our city."
Bai Jin puzzled and said: "In everyone's hearts, you are the king of half the city! What does the devil have to do with us? He has never had the blessing to protect us, why should we wish him a birthday?"
"The Demon King is the top strong man here. The richer and stronger we are, the more we must gain his approval. Birthday wishes are an important preparation before I enter the palace!"
Soon the elixir was refined, Bai Jin took people there to celebrate his birthday, and Aofeng wrote a letter:
May my king live long and in good health! Thanks to the love of God and the favor of my king, I am lucky enough to enter the realm of God. A wild god lives in half a city on the border, and makes a living with the orcs growing medicine and refining elixirs. He never dares to forget the kindness of my king, and leads all the orcs to present a birthday gift to show their loyalty. yours truly!
When he returned, Bai Jin was in high spirits, "The Demon King was very happy to see the birthday stickers and gifts, and he specially gave me the city master's seal."
"Of course the Demon King wants to show his ability to attract talented people. Then did he ask me why I didn't meet him in person?"
"Asked, I said you are in seclusion and will meet the Demon King in person after you leave seclusion. The Demon King promises that he will crown you with a fiefdom and make you the Demon God!"
Aofeng nodded, "Very good, we have converted to orthodoxy! Our enemies will be even more uneasy, and the decisive battle is probably not far away!"
He ordered Bai Jin, "You guys who are junior generals and above must step up your practice. The supply of elixirs will be open, even if you eat them as food. I will also personally guide you, and I will see you advance in a short period of time." results."
On that day, Bai Jin came to report, "Guanglingtang asked someone to bring a letter."
Aofeng looked at it and smiled, "Demon God Zhiyang finally couldn't hold it anymore and asked me to meet him. He also said that Guanglingtang could be disbanded, withdraw from the elixir market, and let us have a monopoly."
"Then how should we respond?"
"It seems that he wants to put aside the past feud with me and get back together. Someone said that once you are unfaithful, you will never be loyal again. A treacherous person like him will definitely bite back and bite harder if he gets the chance! "
"Then reject him?" Bai Jin said.
"Be noncommittal and find a reason to hold him back, leaving him confused and in a dilemma!"
Half a year passed by, during which time Zhiyang sent another message, asking to meet for a chat, but Aofeng politely refused. His main focus was on training demon generals to improve their ranks. After hard work, the results were remarkable. Bai Jin and Lu Chen have both been promoted to the high level of Demon General, and the other four fierce generals have also been promoted to the intermediate level. It can be said that the troops are strong and the morale is high.
On this day, Qi Jue was reading quietly at night and was deep in thought. There was a soft sound outside the window. If it were anyone else, he would have thought it was a snake or rat, but his nerves immediately became alert.
"You are also an expert for being able to sneak in quietly under the eyes of the guards. Please come in and talk!"
The carved door opened slightly, as if the wind pushed the door in.
"There are no outsiders here, show up!" Qi Jue said calmly.
There was a chuckle in the air, "I was afraid of causing trouble to Jueshen again, so I had no choice but to sneak in invisibly."
Qi Jue was not surprised when Aofeng appeared and motioned for him to sit down. "That day when your Demon Palace self-destructed, I felt that you must still be alive. You really did not disappoint me. You made a splash in the wilderness. Even my king praised you as a rare talent."
"It seems that my king is not prepared to pursue my past crimes?"
"The red tide is approaching, and it's the right time to employ people. Regardless of past suspicions, my king will entrust you with important responsibilities. Tell me, you suddenly came to me today. There must be something going on?"
"I'm here to get my Ice Phoenix back!"
Aofeng took a brocade box from the bookshelf and opened it. The Ice Phoenix was neatly stacked and spotless. "I've been waiting to return it to its original owner! It's just such a small thing, why do you need to visit secretly late at night?"
"Of course there is one more important thing. I'm here to invite you to watch a good show..."
A few days later, on a full moon night, Aofeng stood in the blood rain forest, his voice whimpering as the wind blew through the treetops. This is a familiar place, but also a sad place. In the past, someone was plotted here, brothers became enemies, and lost their magic roots. It is inevitable to feel a little sad when I revisit my old place now.
At this time, a figure flashed, and the sun stood in front of him. Twenty years later, he entered the divine realm with a calm expression and a very powerful aura.
The two looked at each other with no murderous intent, and more helpless emotions spread.
"Brother, you are finally willing to see me! You chose this place just to remind me how deeply I hurt you back then. I feel deeply guilty for my brother. I have often blamed myself for the past twenty years and cannot let go!"
"Yes, we are brothers. Why bother to fight each other when we meet? How about we reminisce about old times?"
The two sat cross-legged, drinking a pot of strong wine in pairs, and the atmosphere relaxed.
On the same moonlit night, Qi Jue served fine wine in the backyard pavilion and drank and chatted with Tang Miao and Mo Mu. Jueshen was in a good mood. The sky was vast and the sky was vast, and they had a great time chatting.
Tang Miao quietly asked Mu Shen, "Old Mu, what evil wind is blowing today? Jueshen, who is the most unwilling to socialize, actually invited us to drink?"
Mo Mu finished the wine in his arms and gave Tang Miao a look that meant to wait for the changes and wait for the flowers to bloom.
When he arrived, Qi Jue drank a glass of wine and suddenly said seriously: "I invite you to this night to invite the gods to see the good show together, and also to bear witness."
With a flick of his fingertips, a crystal ball flew up, reflecting another scene in the night sky...
Here Aofeng and Zhiyang were drinking and talking, and the wine in the pot quickly ran out. Aofeng smiled, "Brother's aura is disordered, and he must have something on his mind. You are wondering, why haven't your key generals arrived yet? At this moment, we should all surround me and put me to death."
Zhiyang was taken aback, and Aofeng continued: "I'll tell you the answer, my people have killed them all!"
"This is impossible!" Zhiyang blurted out.
"We know their attributes, magic shapes, and techniques very well. It's not difficult to capture them!"
"This bitch Lu Chen is indeed alive!" Zhiyang gritted his teeth, "It's useless to talk more. Today, this god will cut you into pieces!"
"Very good. Back then, you killed Thrawn, seized the magic root, and put the blame on me. This account will be settled today!"
Zhiyang jumped up, swung the magic knife, and flames surged out, turning a ten-foot radius into a sea of magma and fire. Aofeng was secretly surprised. With the help of the devil's roots, this man was indeed making rapid progress and should not be underestimated. He spread out his wings of ice and fire, and just as he flew up, a fire net covered his head.
Zhiyang smiled ferociously, "I can still deal with you today!" He slashed with the magic sword, and Aofeng's figure suddenly disappeared.
At the same time, the light of a forest-green long sword above his head skyrocketed, Mount Tai pressed down on the top, and Zhiyang raised his sword to parry. The two fought fiercely in the air, as fast as lightning, and only two streams of light were seen, chasing and entangled, like sparks colliding and stars falling.
At this time, several figures flew over, it was Lu Chen, Bai Jin and others. Zhiyang watched secretly and knew that the situation was over. He flew away and met several flying meteors blocking his way. Zhiyang panicked and tried to escape. Suddenly a figure flashed, flanked by two sides, and the golden blade was already placed at his neck.
Tang Miao's clone restrained Zhiyang, her eyes were like frost approaching. Qi Jue and Mo Mu arrived in the air, and Zhi Yang was overjoyed, "The gods came just in time! Back then, this wild god tried to kill the Dragon God, but now he wants to kill me because of his large numbers of people. Hurry up and put him to death on the spot!"
Qi Jue sneered, "It was you who plotted to kill the Dragon God, framed others, and grabbed the magic root. Now, let's show the evidence and see what else you have to say?"
Tang Miao stepped forward and put his handprint on Zhiyang Dantian. Suddenly his expression changed, "No demonic roots were found..."
