"Tsk, the moon in Beicang Continent is not as bright as that in Yinglong City."
Lying on his side on the roof, Ying Baiye looked at the bright moon in the sky and said with some emotion.
"This is not a problem of the moon." Lingxi sat next to him and gently tapped Ying Baiye's eyebrows with her jade fingers. "You're just simply homesick."
For Ying Baiye, Yinglong City is a very special place. It is different from the Bingling Clan and the Luoshen Clan. The people in that place have no blood relationship with him, but they are among the few that Ying Baiye can call "home." There is a place where their families and a courtyard belong to him, a place where he can go back.
"Sister, what you said makes me a little sentimental."
Ying Baiye opened the jade bottle next to him, and a strong aroma of wine filled the air.
"Is not it?"
Lingxi looked at him with a smile. It was obviously a question, but his tone was as sure as an affirmation.
"All right."
Ying Baiye raised his hands and surrendered. No matter what happened, he could never hide his affairs from the person next to him. In this case, he might as well admit it cleanly.
"Maybe it's because of the injury this time. It reminds me of some past things more or less."
"When you first arrived in Yinglong City?"
Ying Baiye had told her about the past, so when she heard what he said, Lingxi immediately thought of this time period.
Ying Baiye looked at the bright moon in the distance, a smile appeared at the corner of his beautiful mouth, and he nodded gently: "Don't you think my current situation is a bit similar to that then? I can't use my spiritual power, and I'm also blocked by the cold air. Qi Hai, the only difference may be that it can still operate the Yan Tian Jing without relying on spiritual power."
"Oh, there's another difference. It's not as serious as lying in bed for half a year."
But this is also understandable. After all, what was the extent of liberating the ice field in the first place? Now it is just an ordinary ice wither. The two are not on the same level at all.
What's more, he has grown a lot compared to that time, and his current situation can be considered very good.
Listening to his words, Lingxi was silent for a moment: "How long will this situation last?"
The sea of energy that stores spiritual power is frozen by the cold air. This is a fatal thing for every living being in the world. If Ying Baiye hadn't met Ying Xue'er, a kind-hearted little sister, he might not have known it long ago. Where he died, even though he was like this, under the treatment of three earthly supreme experts, he still lay in bed for half a year, and then after another half year of cold air blockade, he barely returned to his normal state.
This shows how dangerous Ying Baiye's current situation is.
Although the degree this time is not as serious as the last time, even so, the fact that this situation itself is very "dangerous" cannot be ignored.
Hearing Ling Xi's question, Ying Baiye took a sip of the liquor in the jade bottle, and then said, "About...a few months."
This is already a very conservative time.
The extent of his current physical weakness is unimaginable. He originally suffered a lot of injuries when he fought with the Huangbei Five. Later, he dragged this injured body to forcefully open the ice field. More importantly, he faced With a powerful blow to the supreme projection, he had no choice but to use more than the limit that he could bear when opening the ice field, releasing most of the power of the "Nine Carp" Ice Wither.
Then, and then nothing more.
The attack of the Supreme Projection was indeed blocked, but now he was seriously injured.
His whole body was filled with the cold air that came out of the ice field. The cold air froze the sea of energy that stored his spiritual power. As a result, his current spiritual power was constantly trying to "melt" that part of the cold air that blocked the sea of energy. Therefore, he It's not that the spiritual power cannot be produced, it's that although it can fill the empty sea of qi, it really can't be used.
On the contrary, Ying Baiye still needs to continuously run the Ice Spirit Art, and then continuously generate spiritual power to ensure that the cold air blocking the air sea can be refined as soon as possible.
In short, because of the blockade of the sea of qi, he couldn't even use his spiritual power to heal his injuries. If it weren't for the fact that there were a lot of elixirs in the mustard bracelet and the Lingxi around him who could still use his spiritual power normally, he would probably be in such a bad state at this time. It was much worse than it is now.
Thinking about it carefully, in this ambush, he was not only injured, but also threw out all the Jiling Water that he had collected for more than half a year. Not only that, he also had the Yue Yue that he had been refining for almost a year. Fai also used up all the trophies he had collected in his Mustard Seed Bracelet for more than half a year in order to defend himself from the explosion of Sekireishui. In addition, in order to use the power of "Nine Carps", all the trophies of spiritual weapons he had collected in his Mustard Seed Bracelet were turned into powder.
All in all, he really suffered a big loss from this ambush.
A cold glint flashed in Ying Baiye's eyes. He has been practicing so far, except for the ambush by the ancient Futu clan, he has never suffered such a big loss.
He even almost lost his life there.
Tsk.
A little unhappy.
No, I'm very unhappy.
This ambush will one day be returned to the Dragon Demon Palace by Ying Baiye.
When the time comes, Ying Baiye lets them know what unforgettable physical pain is.
"I will definitely keep an eye on you during this period." After hearing Ying Baiye's answer, Lingxi said immediately. "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, I will not go back to Beicang Spiritual Academy."
"Uh..." Ying Baiye scratched his face, did he show it so obviously? His intentions were seen through so easily. "Although my sister didn't show it clearly, but she was able to kill five supreme beings in such a short period of time, I'm afraid you must have used your trump card."
"So?" A "kind" smile appeared on Lingxi's face.
Ying Baiye looked away and his voice became weaker: "So, I'm afraid your injuries are no less than mine..."
"Then what?"
The smile becomes more "kind".
"Then..." Feeling that Ling Xi's eyes were becoming more "kind", Ying Baiye made a quick decision. "I'm sorry, please follow me, I will change my previous plan."
"That's pretty much it."
Lingxi pushed her hair behind her ears and glanced at Ying Baiye angrily.
She could probably guess that the plan that Ying Baiye had made before was nothing more than a man dragging his seriously injured body around to run away from those who were chasing him.
But this doesn't work. Ying Baiye's style of doing things is completely different with her around and without her around.
If she wasn't watching, Ying Baiye's style of doing things would be extremely extreme, especially when he was still seriously injured. If she wasn't around, this guy wouldn't know how to take care of his body. So no matter what, she had to take good care of Ying Baiye while he was injured.
At this moment, she felt that the detection spirit array she had set up seemed to be moving, which meant that someone was on the roof.
The person who came seemed to be a student from Beicang Spiritual Academy, probably the student named "Shen Cangsheng".
"If someone is looking for you, I'll go down first."
Lingxi said softly to Ying Baiye.
Ying Baiye nodded, indicating that he understood. When he looked at Lingxi again, she had disappeared on the roof, and there was no one at her original location.
Ying Baiye turned his head and looked at the tall figure walking up to the roof, with a slight smile on his lips.
Speaking of which, I don't know if it's a coincidence. It seems that all those who practice spears like to stand upright. This is the case for Shen Cangsheng and the same for Zhao Mingya.
"You can drink here leisurely. It seems that your health is not that bad."
When Shen Cangsheng came to him, he saw the jade bottle in Ying Baiye's hand at first sight. Even from a distance of two meters, he could smell the strong aroma of wine emanating from the jade bottle.
"I'm just pretending to be calm. In fact, I'm also very flustered now."
Ying Baiye smiled and said to Shen Cangsheng.
"Who believes you?"
Shen Cangsheng had no intention of sitting down, but just stood straight aside. "Tell me, why are you keeping me?"
Before coming to the courtyard, Ying Baiye had said that he had something to ask of him. Although he thought at that time that this was actually Ying Baiye's excuse to not let him follow him, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed that with Ying Baiye's personality, if he refused If you don't, you won't even bother using this roundabout way.
If it were this person, he would tell him directly: "Oh, you are too weak, it's better not to hold you back."
Among all the students at Beicang Spiritual Academy, he is probably the only one who can say such words to him, who is number one on the Heavenly Ranking.
Don't ask how Shen Cangsheng knew this kind of thing, it was another past event that he didn't want to think about.
In short, being able to make Ying Baiye say "I have something to ask of you" is probably quite a big deal.
Ying Baiye didn't care about Shen Cangsheng's attitude. The two of them were actually quite familiar with each other. There weren't many students from Beicang Lingyuan who liked to wander outside. They had the strength to chase the top ten murderers all over the continent. People are even rarer.
Among these rare people, Shen Cangsheng is the one who has been away the longest.
Therefore, every time Ying Baiye took on a task outside the school, he would meet this senior many times. After going back and forth, the two of them became somewhat familiar with each other.
Not really a stranger.
Therefore, Ying Baiye knew something about this person.
It was because of this that Ying Baiye could trust him with this matter.
After taking a sip of the strong wine in the bottle, Ying Baiye narrowed his eyes and said something that made Shen Cangsheng look at him.
"Senior, I suspect that there seems to be a spy from the Dragon Demon Palace among the senior officials of our college."
Shen Cangsheng frowned: "Such words cannot be said without evidence."
If Ying Baiye said that there were spies in Beicang Lingyuan, Shen Cangsheng probably wouldn't think anything of it. Beicang Lingyuan is a college after all, and the students it recruits come from every corner of the world. Even if there are a few origins mixed in, Unknown students are not a big deal.
But Ying Baiye said "high-level people"...
This is no simple matter.
"You have to come up with a reason to convince me."
With his trust in Bai Ye, Shen Cangsheng did not deny this possibility immediately.
But most of the senior officials of Beicang Spiritual Academy have been in the academy for more than ten years, or even decades. What's more, they have been here since they were young and frivolous until they are now gray-haired. If any of these people are really Someone has a problem…
hiss--
Shen Cangsheng suddenly felt that the temperature on the roof suddenly became colder.
He didn't dare to think about it.
"Of course there is such a thing as a reason." Ying Baiye lowered his eyes. "I didn't expect that my own value in the eyes of Dragon Demon Palace has reached such a high level. You also heard the conversation between me and Demon Dragon Zi before, and you should be able to guess that I was ambushed. Bar."
"Lian Xingcheng, right?"
Shen Cangsheng recalled the information he heard before and opened his mouth to confirm.
Ying Baiye nodded: "That city had become an empty city when I arrived. There were people in the city waiting for my arrival. Do you know what the state of the people waiting for me is like?"
Shen Cangsheng shook his head.
"Oh, five supreme mistresses, five supreme beings."
hiss--
Hearing this lineup, Shen Cangsheng's eyes flashed with deep horror. Of course he knew that the five supremes were prepared to thwart the elder who was following Ying Baiye, but the five supreme mistresses were in trouble...
wrong!
A trace of doubt flashed in Shen Cangsheng's eyes.
"If the Dragon Demon Palace had used such a lineup, the elders of the academy would have noticed it in advance. This cannot be someone from the Dragon Demon Palace."
"Mercenary."
Ying Baiye's voice was calm as he answered Shen Cangsheng's doubts.
"Mercenary!" Shen Cangsheng showed a clear expression.
"From the Wuliang Continent, the Deserted North Mercenary Group." After saying this name, Ying Baiye's eyes moved slightly. "You must remember what I say next completely, and then relay it to Dean Taicang word for word."
Shen Cangsheng nodded, his expression completely serious.
Ying Baiye exhaled and said slowly: "Few people know that I left Beicang Spiritual Academy. The main purpose of my coming out this time is to hunt down Mo Xingtian. This is something that needs to be kept secret for the time being. , so I quietly left the academy from the teleportation spirit formation arranged by the spiritual formation elders, and my whereabouts were not registered in Beicang City."
After hearing his words, Shen Cangsheng's eyes moved slightly.
Hunting down Demon Xingtian was an elusive thing for him, but after listening to Ying Baiye’s previous description of Lianxing City’s ambush lineup, it seemed that this kind of thing was indeed normal for Ying Baiye. But that's all.
Ying Baiye's voice continued unhurriedly: "In the entire Beicang Spiritual Academy, not many people know about my leaving the academy. Apart from the dean and the five Tianxi elders, I am afraid that only Luo Li is the only one among the students. , Muchen, and Yanmeng have some knowledge of this matter. But the last three can be ignored, they will not have any connection with this matter."
"So, there are only a few people who know that I am not in the academy. Even if others discover this situation, they will never know that I came out to Mo Xingtian."
"If this is the case, this ambush is obviously somewhat deliberate."
"Deliberately?"
Shen Cangsheng couldn't help but ask.
Ying Baiye did not answer his doubts, but said to himself: "The reason why I went to Lianxing City was coincidental. When I was wandering around the mainland, there was almost no news that Dong Yuan was injured in the battle with Mo Xingtian. It spread throughout the entire continent. I don’t know if this is a coincidence. This rumor spread so vividly, the person, the place, the time. Now that I think about it, some of these things are too clear and too obvious, like..."
Ying Baiye narrowed his eyes, some things could only be seen clearly afterward.
This matter, it seems now.
"It was like it was meant to reach my ears."
"Dragon Demon Palace knew that I left the academy and that I was looking for Mo Xingtian, so this rumor naturally became a bait to catch me. They knew that I would definitely go to Lianxing City to collect clues about Mo Xingtian's whereabouts. That’s why we set up such an ambush formation there in advance.”
"There is no doubt that they are not worried at all that I will not go. They are more certain than anyone else that I am here just for Mo Xingtian."
Ying Baiye's eyes were cold: "And the only people who know the purpose of my trip are the few senior people in the college."
Therefore, among these people, there must be some hidden trap set by the Dragon Demon Palace.
In other words, among these people, there must be people around Anzi.
Ying Baiye's words had fallen completely, but the roof was quiet. Shen Cangsheng had no intention of answering the conversation, or in other words, he was no longer in the mood to answer the conversation.
After listening to Ying Baiye's words, he immediately understood why Ying Baiye was so sure that there were spies from the Dragon Demon Palace in Beicang Spiritual Academy.
It's reasonable and well-founded, and there's really no way for anyone to refute it.
He clenched his fists slightly, and an indescribable coldness crawled up his spine. He closed his eyes to relieve his emotions. After just a few seconds, he opened his eyes again.
"What do you need me to do?"
"Bring this passage to Dean Taicang. He is the only one among those people who can be trusted."
If Dean Taicang was the traitor, then Beicang Spiritual Academy would have been destroyed by the Dragon Demon Palace decades ago.
"This matter cannot attract anyone else's attention. You are number one on the Heavenly Ranking and you have just returned from school. You have enough reasons to see the dean normally."
"I understand this." Shen Cangsheng nodded. "Then what? I'm afraid that's not all what you want to do."
If he had simply told Dean Tai Cang the whole story, Bai Ye could have done this by himself when he returned to the academy, instead of having to stay outside the school and fight with the enemies of Beicang Spiritual Academy. .
"What I asked Mo Longzi to spread will soon spread throughout the entire Beicang Continent." There was finally a slight change in Ying Baiye's calm tone just now. Shen Cangsheng couldn't help but look at his side face, and those golden eyes seemed to light up all of a sudden.
"All of them will know that I am in the best state to be killed now. This is an opportunity that cannot be missed. No matter whether it is the Dragon Demon Palace or the secret hidden in Beicang Lingyuan, they I will never miss this great opportunity, but don’t worry, I won’t be found by them so easily.”
"I will appear in any corner of Beicang Continent. I will make my whereabouts become erratic. I will let those idiots chase my whereabouts all over the continent. The only forces that can know my whereabouts are There will be one."
Ying Baiye's tone became more and more high-pitched, and Shen Cangsheng looked at him. For no reason, he seemed to see some ferocious beast with its fangs exposed on that pale handsome face.
Its golden eyes seemed to be staring at something closely, and that look was like looking at...prey.
As for the only force he said knew his whereabouts, Shen Cangsheng, no matter how stupid he was, would know which one it was.
Beicang Lingyuan.
"You want to use yourself as bait to catch that person out?"
Ying Baiye took a sip of the wine from the jade bottle, and his expression calmed instantly: "That's right, let the dean keep an eye on those people. If he really wants to kill me, he will never miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If there is a chance, he will definitely pass my whereabouts to the Dragon Demon Palace, and when the time comes, whoever reveals a flaw will be nailed as soon as possible."
After hearing this, Shen Cangsheng took a deep breath, then exhaled it gently, his eyes instantly became firm.
"I understand, I will bring what you said to the dean in full."
Ying Baiye nodded without saying another word.
Shen Cangsheng glanced at him.
For the first time, I realized the gap between the two of them from another perspective. If it were him, could he really come up with such a crazy plan? In other words, even if he could think of it, would he really dare to do it?
Dragging his seriously injured body to face tens of thousands of enemies, using his own life as bait, just to fish out the traitor.
How much courage does it take to make such a decision, and how much confidence does it take to dare to execute such a plan.
How could a person who can truly be called the favored man of heaven only have talent in spiritual cultivation?
"Huh~"
After exhaling again, Shen Cangsheng felt an inexplicable sense of frustration from the bottom of his heart.
He shook his head and stopped his so-called melancholy.
The conversation was over and it was time for him to go down.
Without saying hello to Ying Baiye, and the two of them not even looking at each other, Shen Cangsheng turned around, jumped down, and disappeared on the roof.
His mood is quite complicated now, so it's better to stay away from Ying Baiye.
Otherwise, I always feel like there is a gap between myself and this person that can never be crossed.
Ying Baiye felt that Shen Cangsheng had left the roof, but his posture did not change at all, and he had no intention of going down.
He has a lot to do tonight, and I'm afraid he won't be able to get out of here for a while.
Shen Cangsheng's side is just a side dish, the real staple food is the little guy who will come next.
Well, it's not "just come here".
Ying Baiye raised his eyes and looked helplessly at the figure walking slowly along the route Shen Cangsheng took.
I'm afraid he won't have to say a lot tonight.
