The roaring continued, and the thunder in the sky seemed to have no intention of stopping. It was intertwined in the rainbow light like thousands of long bridges, and scattered with countless golden and jade-like light slurries, as if to celebrate the addition of one of the most beautiful people in the world. A noble presence.
"this……"
In the courtyard of Qingdu County Sheriff's Mansion, both servants and masters were looking at the vision above in shock. Even though the Governor's Mansion was very important in Qingdu and even the servants were honored, they had never seen it before. Have you ever experienced such a scene?
"Dad, what is going on?" Xu Mingli couldn't help but asked.
Qingdu County Sheriff looked at the sky with slightly trembling lips, but could not say a word.
After a while, he murmured in disbelief: "It's Xia Hong... When I went to Dihong City in Kyoto to report on my work, I was also fortunate enough to see a powerful descendant of Xia Hong's bloodline awakening. That was a The great-grandson of the county prince, the legendary fourteenth prince is behind the family, but that vision..."
At this moment, he seemed to have returned to that night in Dihong City in Kyoto.
At that time, he was also shocked and speechless as he watched the scene of thunder accompaniment, rainbow bridges crisscrossing, and light pulp scattered around the world, which was deeply imprinted in his heart.
But compared to the magnificent scene seen at this time, the vision at that time was simply insignificant.
Like the light of a firefly, how can it be compared with the brightness of the bright moon?
"It is said that the purer Xia Hong's bloodline is, the greater the vision will be when awakening."
The Qingdu County Sheriff's eyes reflected the sky, and his tone was as if he was talking in a dream, and he said slowly: "The endless visionary scene that can be seen at a glance, even if it is not the legendary prince, I am afraid that he is at least the biological heir of a certain prince... …”
Xu Mingli was also stunned when he heard this, and murmured: "The prince's biological heir? Even the prince?"
His Majesty the God Emperor is the only myth that exists in the hearts of Dayong's people.
The heirs of His Majesty the God Emperor are naturally otherworldly beings.
This is no longer as simple as imperial power.
It is a belief that remains unquestionable for thousands of years.
Even if the Xia Hong family's descendants are dozens of generations away from His Majesty the God Emperor, they still have privileges and preferential treatment even if their bloodline has not been awakened. It is easy to imagine the high status of the Xia Hong family.
And now, in Qingdu, a small northwest border city, a member of the Xia Hong family with extremely pure blood has awakened?
"who is it?"
The governor of Qingdu suddenly thought of something and immediately had a suspect: "The commander-in-chief Baili Fengzhi suddenly came to Qingdu with such a big fanfare to look for someone. Could it be that Xia Lie?"
…
Qingque said.
Thousands of personal guards were fully mobilized at this time, and they gathered in an orderly manner towards a street near Qingque Road.
All of them were military warriors armed with guns and armor. The sound of thousands of people stepping to the ground seemed to shake even the streets of Qingque Road. The fierceness that had gone through battlefield killings revealed an unstoppable momentum. , everyone who saw it got out of the way.
"Bang!"
Thousands of armored soldiers were all very powerful. Under the collision of heavy armor, any residential walls that might cause obstruction were quickly demolished and bulldozed, and the residents were sent away one after another.
Even if they encounter a thicker and more solid wall, the ten-capion commander among the thousands of personal guards, a master of the martial arts level, will take action immediately.
"Rumble..."
As the sound of collapse came one after another, smoke and dust were everywhere, and the ground was covered with rubble.
When the people nearby saw this, they were so frightened that they ran away. They picked up their belongings and fled away.
Many people noticed the big movement here and watched from a distance, but they did not dare to get even half a step closer.
Soon.
A hundred feet of this street and alley were reduced to ruins, with only the last residential house remaining.
It was a shabby-looking house with a small area, and it didn't cost much money to buy it.
There is also a golden-leaf elm tree planted in the yard, sitting quietly among the ruins.
But no sergeant came near the small house.
Even if the courtyard door is completely open, from the front angle, you can even clearly see the door of the house in the courtyard.
But still no one has taken a step into it.
It seems like the only pure land among the ruins.
"Um?"
Baili Fengzhi, wearing a red battle robe and a silver mask, with a slender and straight figure, was standing in an open space, looking at the small house not far away, his narrow red phoenix eyes full of solemnity color.
"grown ups."
At this time, Deputy Chu would appear from the distant streets and alleys. After a few ups and downs, he came to Baili Fengzhi's eyes.
"How are you preparing?" Baili Fengzhi asked without looking back, his eyes always fixed on the house.
"It's ready. Lin Yue's house has been heavily surrounded, and the military formation has been set up."
Lieutenant General Chu said: "Unless the opponent's level is ridiculously high, even an expert who breaks the Four Elephants Heavenly Pass will have to kill more than half of the guards to have any hope of breaking out."
Baili Fengzhi nodded slightly and said: "The general's personal guards are all strong soldiers who defend their home and country and have made great military exploits for Dayong. If a practitioner dares to kill at will, he will be riddled with sin."
"Sir, do you want to take the initiative to attack?" Vice General Chu asked.
"Just wait here."
Baili Fengzhi said indifferently: "At this time, Xia Lie's Xia Hong family bloodline is awakening, and the other party has not killed Xia Lie in the past few months. Maybe there is another reason, or maybe the other party is also afraid. We There may not be any chance of negotiation, and it would be inappropriate to rush in hastily.”
"Yes." Vice General Chu nodded slowly.
Now he finally understood why the commander valued Mr. Xialie so much.
It turns out that the young master Xia Lie is from the royal family Xia Hong?
And if the vision is so shocking, it must be someone with extremely pure blood in the Xia Hong family. Could it be the flesh and blood of a certain prince?
Even higher...
He didn't dare to continue imagining it.
"Um?"
Vice General Chu looked at the houses in the house, suddenly startled slightly, and said with some disbelief: "My lord, under the general's perception, he did not find anyone in that house."
Baili Fengzhi's eyes were calm and calm, and he just said quietly: "I can't sense any movement, not even a trace of living breath."
"You can't even feel it, my lord? This..." Vice General Chu was a little surprised.
"There must be a barrier. Although it can't hinder the awakening of the royal bloodline, it can isolate other auras. I'm afraid the barrier is of high quality."
Baili Fengzhi said slowly: "This is also the reason why I dare not take action rashly. I don't know what is going on inside now."
She narrowed her narrow eyes slightly, "But according to the spies I sent here to monitor Lin Yue, before the vision began, there were always only him and Su Ziqiu in Lin Yue's home. But at the moment the vision began, , the spy who is good at detecting and listening can’t detect anything.”
"Lin Yue?"
Vice General Chu looked at the small house and couldn't help but ask: "Sir, why did Young Master Xia Lie appear in Lin Yue's home?"
"I don't know."
Baili Fengzhi frowned slightly and said in a low voice: "I only had some doubts about Lin Yue yesterday, but I didn't think he could accomplish anything, but... now that I think about it, maybe he has been lying to us?"
"Sir, is it possible that Lin Yue is also a hidden practitioner? Can he even hide from your detection?" Deputy General Chu couldn't help but ask.
"impossible."
Baili Fengzhi immediately said: "I not only personally inspected his body, but also tested his blood. There is no doubt that he is a mortal. If this can be hidden from me, his cultivation level is probably much higher than mine, and Why do you have to grovel and act in front of me?"
She paused and said, "Although he is indeed extraordinary, he is indeed just a mortal."
Lieutenant General Chu became more and more unbelievable: "But... Master Xialie, he is obviously protected by the confidant you sent, how did Lin Yue do it?"
"Maybe it was Tu Laodao who took action. If that's the case, it would make sense if they jointly performed a show for me in prison."
Baili Fengzhi snorted coldly, "Or maybe Lin Yue used some strange means, such as some strange medicine that is also effective for martial arts? Although my confidant has always been cautious, he may not have been careless. Recruitment is also possible.”
Vice General Chu remained silent, just looking at the seemingly ordinary small house.
He still can't believe it.
When he first met the young man named Lin Yue, although he felt that he was a little brave, he was just an ordinary person after all.
Later, he discovered that although the other party was a poor man who had suffered an unreasonable disaster, he never left his burdensome wife and could be said to be affectionate and righteous.
However, now it seems that he can probably guess some of the reasons.
The other party seemed to be more daring, more affectionate and more righteous than he imagined, and... a deep and scheming person that even made him feel a chill down his spine.
at this time--
The rolling thunder over Qingdu stopped, and the horned dragon-like thunders were left with only a few flashes of lightning. The rainbow bridge in the sky became even rarer, and the countless golden and jade-like light slurries were blown away by the evening breeze. Blow it, and it turns into little bits of golden light and dissipates.
"Xialie's bloodline awakening is almost over."
Baili Fengzhi raised his head and looked at the dissipated vision, and he immediately understood this in his heart.
She took a deep breath and immediately raised a hand. The cold and majestic voice spread out, once again breaking the tranquility that had only been restored for a few breaths in the night:
"All officers and men obey orders——"
…
In the house, in the cabin.
The long pearl hanging on the beam was emitting bright and soft light, illuminating the scene in the house at this time.
The 'Blood Lotus Lamp' that looked like a blood-red lotus was placed on the table, and it was burning with a faint red flame.
Wherever the dim light of the lights shrouded the place, there was a strange silence, as if it was isolated from the world.
Lin Yue played with the human-skinned 'All Living Beings' in his hands and sat quietly beside the bed.
On the bed was Xia Honglie, who had returned to his original appearance. Although he was still covered with a quilt, he still seemed to be very sick and frail, but strange rays of light were constantly merging all over his body.
Those rays of light included wisps of electric light that traveled around, a large number of rainbow bridge-like streams of light, and those light slurries that kept falling on him, like gold and jade.
Although Lin Yue did not open the window to observe the strange phenomena outside, he had seen similar records in Taoist books and naturally understood that this was the process of awakening Xia Honglie's bloodline.
Xia Honglie's originally extremely pale and sickly complexion was now becoming more and more rosy and healthy in the process of awakening, and it seemed that he would return to his original state at any time.
"Soon……"
Lin Yue sat aside expressionlessly, watching Xia Honglie recover bit by bit, but had no intention of taking action.
On the table next to it were the All Souls Blood Refining Jade and the glass box containing the blood of the Fire Phoenix.
Although this piece of Ten Thousand Souls Blood Refining Jade can refine Xia Lie's blood and soul, it requires a blood sacrifice before it can be activated.
Now that he has neither the essence and blood of the cultivators of the Four Symbols Heavenly Pass nor the essence and blood of the nine practitioners of the Five Elements Heavenly Pass, he naturally cannot make a blood sacrifice and can only be used as a decoration for the time being.
A long while passed.
Seeing that the strange phenomena on Xia Honglie's body began to disappear, Lin Yue immediately stood up, walked to the table, and took a look at the blood lotus lamp placed on the table.
This blood lotus lamp is a barrier treasure that can block breath, sound, etc., and does not require mana to activate it.
You only need to use blood as lamp oil to use it.
He has tested that if the blood of ordinary people is used as lamp oil, it will be consumed quickly.
Therefore, Lin Yue used the blood of the fire phoenix as lamp oil.
Just pouring the extremely huge fire phoenix blood in the glazed box into the blood lotus lamp is enough to burn the blood lotus lamp for a long, long time.
Judging from the consumption speed, it is obviously many times more durable than ordinary people's blood.
"about there."
Lin Yue picked up the blood lotus lamp and slowly turned the lotus on the lamp - in this way he could adjust the scope of the blood lotus lamp barrier.
at this time--
He suddenly turned around and looked.
At this moment, the wonders transformed by the streams of light in the room were completely integrated into Xia Honglie's body, and Xia Honglie's aura suddenly rose.
At the same time, Xia Honglie, who was lying on the bed, also opened his eyes, with a strange light in his eyes.
"Hahaha...Hahaha! That's it!"
Xia Honglie suddenly laughed wildly with surprise and joy: "Is this my innate magical power? Haha, Lin Yue! I'm not afraid of you anymore! You're dead this time!"
"So confident?" Lin Yue looked at Xia Honglie.
The light did not flicker at all.
Quietly reflecting his equally unruffled eyes.
He pulled with one hand, and the hemp rope hanging the pearls on the beam suddenly tightened and broke quietly at the thin point.
Light falls.
The room suddenly became dark.
…
Outside the house, the light of torches swayed in the evening wind, and the night was full of murderous intent. Many armored soldiers looked awe-inspiring and were ready for battle.
Suddenly--
"No! Impossible! You obviously promised me!"
A shrill and desperate voice suddenly came from inside the house, floating in the night sky, and everyone was stunned.
Baili Fengzhi and Deputy General Chu were slightly startled.
They recognized it instantly. It was clearly Lin Yue's voice!
next moment--
"Bang!"
The wooden door of the house in the courtyard suddenly shook, and there was a loud noise. One of the two doors was suddenly shaken off the door frame and fell to the ground. Smoke and dust flew into the air for a while.
At the same time, under the gaze of Baili Fengzhi and others, a hand full of blood stretched out from the dim room and grabbed the threshold below.
"Charlie! You went back on your word!"
A shrill scream filled with regret and despair was heard.
Then, Baili Fengzhi and others saw Lin Yue lying on the ground with his face covered in blood, holding on to the threshold with trembling hands, like a drowning man holding on to straw, trying to climb out of the house, his eyes fixed on him. Looking at Baili Fengzhi and others outside the house, their eyes were full of longing for life.
next moment--
Lin Yue was seen lying at the door, opening his mouth. Before he could make any sound, his ankles were grabbed by a pair of hands also stained with blood, and he was dragged back into the house.
The darkness instantly engulfed his figure.
Everything goes quiet.
The night fell into an eerie silence.
Only two bloody drag marks could be seen on the ground at the door of the house.
"this……"
Vice General Chu was startled for a moment and murmured: "Sir, what's going on? Lin Yue just now..."
"They were dragged back into the soundproof barrier." Baili Fengzhi frowned slightly, "Did Xia Lie do it?"
Lin Yue was originally the most suspected person in this matter, and now it was suspected that Xia Lie was responsible. Naturally, they would not help.
Another half a while passed.
I saw a young man covered in blood staggering out of the house.
It’s Xia Lie!
