The flying boat slowed down.
The further we drove forward, the more we felt the powerful oppression brought by the giant tree in the distance.
As thick as a pillar, it towers over the sky and the earth.
The black crown of the giant tree was like a huge black cloud, covering the sky and also covering the three cities of Mo City, Liucheng, and Black Cloud City.
Thin black fog covered the three cities, making them look weird and terrifying.
The people in the nearby city all took their families and fled in panic.
The animals, birds in the nearby mountains and forests, and even the fish and shrimps in the river, etc., all disappeared.
The people in Feizhou looked at these silently, with extremely solemn expressions.
Luo Shang couldn't help but wonder: "According to the book, the Holy Tree of Heaven and Earth of the Demon Clan should not be black. How come this tree..."
"It looks like a magic tree."
Luo Qingzhou looked at the giant black tree and said.
Luo Shang nodded and said: "Indeed, there must be something weird. Or maybe the demon clan used magical powers and used concealment."
The flying boat stopped on a hillside.
Not far ahead is Linqiu City, another city on the border of Dayan.
Tens of miles in front of Linqiu City, Dayan's army was stationed.
Therefore, this city is relatively safe for the time being.
There was an endless stream of vendors at the city gate, some carrying poles and some pushing carts, coming in and out, most of which contained some food.
In a war-torn place like this, food is the most scarce.
Although traders take great risks, the rewards are also huge.
The city was bustling with people, and in addition to the defenders, there were many people who had not evacuated.
Of course, there are more practitioners from all over the Kyushu Continent.
Moreover, more practitioners arrive every day.
Many practitioners have also appeared in some nearby villages and mountains and forests.
There were originally soldiers guarding the city gate for questioning, but there were too many cultivators from all over the country, and many of them were unwilling to tell their origins. The conflicts had been escalating in the past few days. At the suggestion of Bai Yishan, the city's Zhang Yan had no choice but to The soldiers guarding the gate were removed and all the city gates were opened.
At the same time, ordinary people in the city began to be evacuated.
Luo Qingzhou and others followed a group of traders into the city.
Zhuang Zhiyan had received the news in advance and was already waiting on the street at the city gate. After seeing a few people, he quickly called for them to follow.
There are too many people on the street, a mixed bag of people, not a place for chatting.
The few people followed him without saying a word, passed through several streets, turned into an alley, and then came to a dilapidated mansion.
On the plaque on the gate of the mansion, there are two big characters written: Yang Mansion.
There was a group of soldiers guarding both sides of the door.
As Zhuang Zhiyan led them into the mansion, he explained: "The people in the mansion have fled with their families, and we will live here for the time being. Dean Bai and others are discussing things with City Lord Zhang at the City Lord's Mansion. You guys I have just arrived. Let’s rest for a night and don’t go out casually for the time being. There are more and more cultivators in the city, and many of them are from other countries. They are under the guise of resisting the demon clan together, so it is not convenient for us to drive them away. "
"People from the three major immortal sects are coming soon. I don't know where they will live when the time comes."
At this point, he snorted again and said: "I heard that the Piaomiao Immortal Sect brought a lot of people this time, including disciples of their sect and practitioners from other countries. The Dameng Empire also has 50,000 cavalry, and they are Come here. Mocheng, Liucheng and Black Cloud City have been temporarily leased to them. It is estimated that they are going to seriously attack the demon clan."
"That's fine, we don't have to worry about it. Dean Bai also said that we only need to hold on here. As long as the monsters don't continue to invade our other cities, we won't have to worry about them for the time being. Let's see what the three major immortal sects do first. "
Luo Shang sneered: "With the temptation of the Holy Tree of Heaven and Earth, I guess they will attack the demon clan more actively than anyone else."
Zhuang Zhiyan said: "In any case, our Great Yan army will not move for the time being. We must maintain sufficient vigilance and strength to prevent other accidents from happening."
Several people came to the backyard.
Zhuang Zhiyan pointed to two of the courtyards and said: "There are still two courtyards left. You can live in whatever you want. In the past few days, it is best not to run around and just practice in the house. When the three major immortal sects come, let's take a look first. It’s up to them to decide.”
He gave a few more instructions and then left in a hurry.
Several people flew all the way, and they all just closed their eyes and rested on the road without taking a good rest, so they were all a little tired.
Fairy Zixia walked to one of the courtyards and said: "There are exactly six of us, three of us live in one. I, Qingzhu, Feiyang, we live in this small courtyard. Aunt Luo, you and Liuli, and Miss Yueyao, Do you think it’s okay to live in the building next to it?”
Before Luo Shang could speak, Luo Qingzhou quickly said: "Master, these two small courtyards are quite large, enough to accommodate many people. Otherwise..."
Fairy Zixia immediately glared at him and said: "Don't even think about it! Men and women are not intimate! It doesn't matter if you are a master and your master uncle lives with you. You can let Aunt Luo, Liuli, and Miss Yueyao live with you. How is it appropriate? Six people live in a small courtyard and you are the only man. Do you think it is appropriate?"
Luo Qingzhou twitched the corner of his mouth and said: "Master, what I mean is that you five women live together, and I live alone. You also said that men and women cannot be intimate, right?"
Fairy Zixia paused for a moment, rolled her eyes at him and said: "You think so well, you live alone in such a big courtyard, and let the five of us squeeze together? And you are not honest and do not look after you as a teacher, you What should I do if I sneak out?"
Luo Qingzhou could only say: "Master, I want to practice quietly alone. I won't go out secretly, at least not in these few days."
When Fairy Zixia saw him giving reasons for practicing, her aura suddenly weakened and she said: "Feiyang, my master and your uncle are also practicing. They will be very quiet and won't disturb you."
Luo Qingzhou shook his head resolutely: "No, my whole body will get hot when I practice, and I may take off my clothes. It will be very inconvenient for you to be with my uncle."
Fairy Zixia's eyes lit up, and she said confidently: "What's the inconvenience? I'm your master, and Qingzhu is your uncle, can I still take advantage of you?"
Luo Qingzhou glanced at the two of them but said nothing or backed down.
At this time, Luo Shang on the side said: "Zixia, let Feiyang live alone. He has reached the level of a great master now, and you don't need to take care of him. Since he wants to practice hard, as a master, you , naturally we must support him unconditionally.”
Fairy Zixia suddenly felt aggrieved, but she was determined to love her apprentice, so she had no choice but to give up and lamented: "Hey, my apprentice is so filial and obedient to the master..."
Luo Qingzhou pretended not to hear, turned around and entered the small courtyard, closed the door and said, "Disciple, please go in and rest first."
After saying that, he locked the door and entered the house.
Fairy Zixia muttered a few more words at the door, then reluctantly followed Master Luo Shang to the other room next door.
Linghu Qingzhu and Yue Yao also went next door.
Luo Qingzhou entered the house and settled in the room on the right.
You can see the front yard from the window, which is naturally safer.
He cleaned the room first and then threw the old quilt furniture into another room.
Then, he took out his quilt and other items from the storage ring.
Miss Qin Er has prepared these things for him a long time ago and usually puts them in the storage ring so that he can use them no matter where he goes.
After doing this, he took out the Sun and Moon Mirror and placed it on the table in front of the window.
At this time, it was already dark outside.
He got on the bed, took out the spiritual liquid, put two drops of the spiritual liquid on his palm, then sat cross-legged and started practicing.
The vitality in the air here is extremely rare.
Moreover, there are also some strange auras brought by the demon clan, which is not suitable for cultivation.
But fortunately, he still has spiritual fluid.
The energy contained in the mutated spiritual liquid is purer and more powerful.
As soon as the spiritual liquid entered the body, a scorching energy rose from the abdomen and was quickly refined in the sea of alchemy.
A vague silver moon appeared in the night sky, but it was quickly obscured by gloomy clouds.
The monster tree looks even more ferocious at night, and the aura it emits is also more powerful.
Black mist spreads everywhere between the sky and the earth, and when blown by the night wind, it looks like ferocious monsters, baring their teeth and claws, wreaking havoc everywhere.
On the hillside outside Liucheng, there were several cultivators who had just arrived from nowhere. Relying on their strong strength and the protection of treasures, they quietly entered the area covered by the canopy of the giant tree, but they were soon attacked by the demon clan. Discover.
When they took out their weapons and prepared to kill the monsters, several branches suddenly appeared silently above their heads, piercing their protective light shields with a "pop" and piercing directly into their bodies from the top of their heads.
Several people were suddenly shocked and froze in place.
Immediately, wisps of black energy crawled up their bodies with claws and claws, getting in from their mouths, noses, and even pores.
Not long after.
The eyes of several people suddenly turned red, their bodies stiffened, and they took steps together, staggering towards the city...
In the night sky, the huge tree crown was still growing rapidly in all directions.
at the same time.
In Luo Qingzhou's storage ring, the golden flowers blooming on the mysterious tree seemed to have sensed something, and the petals had all opened.
The little tree continues to grow taller quietly.
But Luo Qingzhou was still immersed in the state of selfless cultivation.
One night passed quietly.
In the morning, a servant brought food.
After Luo Qingzhou ate, he continued to practice.
Fairy Zixia and others next door knew that he was practicing and did not dare to come and disturb him.
Soon another day passed.
After dark.
Luo Qingzhou woke up from his cultivation state.
He took out the body identification stone and checked the progress of his training.
[Early stage of Grand Master, progress eight]
[Early stage of the Divine Transformation Realm, progress nine]
Although the progress was difficult, he was still making progress, and he also knew that his cultivation speed was already extremely fast.
This should all be the result of the spiritual liquid.
After dinner.
He rested for a while and checked the summons.
The Queen sent a message in the afternoon: [Are you here? What's the situation at the border? 】
Of course, someone had already reported the specific situation at the border to her.
She obviously just wanted to talk to him.
Luo Qingzhou patiently replied: [We arrived yesterday, and the situation is not optimistic. But fortunately for the time being, there are no signs of invasion by the demon clan. We are still waiting for the three major immortal sects to come and see how they solve it. After all, the three cities occupied by the Monster Clan have been leased to the Piaomiao Immortal Sect, so let them take the lead]
After the message was sent, the reply came quickly.
[Well, let’s not act rashly for now. Who do you live with? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [I live in a small courtyard alone, and they all live next door]
Her Lady Queen: [When you go out, remember to protect yourself. Remember to lock the door and wear clothes, don’t give some bad women the opportunity to take advantage of it]
Luo Qingzhou: [Please remember]
Her Lady Queen: [Well, I miss you, what about you? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [I also miss Your Majesty]
Her Lady Queen: [How much do you think? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [Every day and every night, I think about it day and night]
Her Lady Queen: [Do you want to continue to insult me and continue to make me kneel on the ground to please you? 】
Luo Qingzhou: [I want it all]
Her Lady Queen: [Rebel! By the way, let me tell you, today I went to the Qin Mansion with Meijiao to see your second Miss Qin. After talking to her for a long time, her complexion looks much better than before.]
Luo Qingzhou: [What did you talk about? 】
Her Lady Queen: [Don’t be nervous, I just casually chatted about your flirting with women and some of your perverted hobbies, and we also looked at the illustrations you hid under the pillow]
Luo Qingzhou froze: [There is nothing hidden under my pillow, someone must have framed me! 】
Her Lady Queen: [Weimo said, you gave it to Xiaodie and Qiuer before]
Luo Qingzhou: [Your Majesty, do you know? The big tree in Mocheng is so big, and the black mist is so dark, it looks very scary]
Her Lady Queen: [Oh. By the way, I went to visit your sister-in-law today]
Luo Qingzhou: [Has she seen you? 】
Her Lady Queen: [The shelf was so big that the door was not even opened, so the maid drove me away. I was very angry]
Luo Qingzhou: [Your Majesty, please calm down. That little girl Bai Ling has such a temper. It shouldn’t be the eldest lady’s order. But the eldest lady never likes to see outsiders, no one is an exception]
Her Lady Queen: [Are you an outsider to her? 】
Just when Luo Qingzhou was about to reply, he suddenly raised his head and looked out the window.
Yue Yao was wearing a white dress and was standing there quietly, looking at him quietly with her cold and charming eyes.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment, then quickly put away the summons and said, "Sister Yue, is something wrong?"
Yue Yao was silent for a moment and said, "I want to see that little tree again."
When Luo Qingzhou heard this, he immediately took out the storage ring. Just as he was about to get out of bed and hand it to her, he suddenly said: "Sister Yue, come to the bed and watch it. Let's watch it together. I just have some questions to ask you."
Yue Yao looked at him coldly, without moving or speaking.
Luo Qingzhou was embarrassed and said: "It was my fault on the way here, and I apologize. I swear, I will never be frivolous with Sister Bo Yue again tonight. I really have a problem with cultivation, and I want to ask for advice." Sister Yue..."
The air was quiet for a moment.
Yue Yao turned around coldly, walked into the small courtyard, stood under a pear tree, and said in a cold voice: "Come out."
Luo Qingzhou said on the bed: "Come in."
Yue Yao stood under the tree for a few more seconds, then walked towards the door coldly, preparing to leave.
Luo Qingzhou didn't dare to tease her anymore and quickly got out of bed and said: "Wait a minute!"
Then the figure flashed and flew out of the window.
Yue Yao stopped, her beautiful face still as cold as snow.
Luo Qingzhou handed the storage ring over and said, "That flower seems to have bloomed. Does Sister Yue know what it does?"
Yue Yao didn't answer, she took the storage ring silently, and when she was about to look inside, she suddenly raised her head and looked at him.
Luo Qingzhou was stunned for a moment before he realized what he was doing. He had to take a few steps back and said, "I said, I won't be frivolous with Sister Yue again tonight. Why doesn't Sister Yue believe me?"
Yue Yao ignored him and entered the storage ring with his spiritual thoughts.
The small tree in the storage ring has grown to about four meters tall, and the only flower on the branch has opened its petals and is in full bloom.
The petals and stamens are all golden.
Yue Yao's mind fell on it, feeling the fragrance and breath of the flowers on it, and his eyes moved slightly.
After a while.
She returned the storage ring in her hand.
Luo Qingzhou took the storage ring and said, "Is there something wrong?"
Yue Yao didn't answer, raised her head, and looked at the huge tree crown like black clouds in the distant sky.
Luo Qingzhou also raised his head, followed her gaze, then moved his steps to stand with her, and asked: "Sister Yue, do you think this tree in Mocheng is the real holy tree of heaven and earth? Maybe at the beginning There are more living tree roots buried in the ground there, and then the demon clan found a way to resurrect them..."
Yue Yao turned her head and looked at him with cold eyes.
Luo Qingzhou stood side by side with her, and at some point, he was pressed against her body.
There was silence for a moment.
A layer of frost gradually condensed on Yue Yao's slender fingertips, and there seemed to be an extra layer of frost in her eyes.
Luo Qingzhou still didn't move away, he actually stretched out his hand, gently held her cold fingertips, looked at her calmly, and said softly: "Sister Yue, I never thought of taking advantage of you, nor did I want to take advantage of you. I don’t really want to be frivolous with you. I just want to know if you have any feelings for me... even the slightest feeling... I know that the skills you practice make it impossible for you to express anything, so I want to I can get even a little answer from your body..."
Yue shook the frost on her fingertips and paused slightly.
Luo Qingzhou held her fingertips, touched his heart gently, and said softly: "Sister Yue, you can try this place. In front of you, it will always be hot and fiery, no matter how frosty you are. No matter how cold it is, it will always beat for you... Your coldness, even if you practice for thousands of years, can't freeze it..."
In the small courtyard, there was silence.
It seemed that the only sounds were the breathing of the two people and the beating of their hearts.
Yue Yao looked at him, and after being quiet for a long time, Fang said calmly: "How many ladies do you have in your family?"
Luo Qingzhou: "..."
"Click!"
In the small courtyard, there is an ice sculpture.
Luo Qingzhou froze on the spot, still looking at her, motionless.
Yue Yao stood there, looking into his eyes.
A long time passed.
She left quietly, but after taking a few steps, she stopped again, turned her back to him, paused, and said softly: "Practice hard... When your cultivation level is high, I won't be able to resist... "
"Also, I don't like...you sticking out your tongue..."
"Although it's not my physical body..."
After saying that, she suddenly turned into a ray of moonlight and disappeared.
