In early spring, the new snow has not yet melted.
Shiri walked on the hard and cold ground with light and cheerful steps. The cold air between her mouth and nose was mixed with some unpleasant smells, but Shiri still felt incredible about everything she saw.
Behind her were long ghosts, floating in the air like a string of huge kites gliding against the ground.
These kites are human figures connected to each other with invisible threads. They have their eyes closed tightly, as if they are falling into endless sleep, and their long green hair is dancing with the cold wind, as if they are moving against the wind. of basil.
She led this string of kites from a distant continent and crossed countless mountains and seas. She saw vast plains and winding rivers, birds and beasts, and, of course, humans that she had not seen for hundreds of years.
She had never seen so many humans. She originally thought she had seen many humans, but she never expected that there were really so many humans living like locusts on this strange and ancient land. They built cities, cultivated the land, and practiced magic and martial arts. They were far more interesting and powerful than the ancient creatures mentioned in myths and legends.
But now, she saw the snow and felt the cold.
There has never been a more novel experience than these. If there was no ban from her father, Xili really hoped to live in this human country for hundreds of years and experience it.
Life is so long, so we have to explore more unknowns.
"Your Excellency Xili, you are moving fast."
A ghost whispered in Ciri's ear, Ciri sighed and slowed down.
She has walked for twenty-one days and months, but she has not stopped for a moment to rest. In the eyes of those humans who happen to see her, she is probably no different from a butterfly. As for those who can see her, she is even more powerful. I don't know if those people will notice me as a somewhat special "human being", but I don't know if anyone can see the kite behind me.
The saints of mankind must be able to do that.
But I don’t know if they will pay attention to this little bug like me.
Then Ciri suddenly saw the city.
She had never seen this city, but it was no different from the city her father drew in her memory. The huge city standing in the middle of the lake with ice as its walls appeared so realistically before her eyes.
Although she only saw the large lake where the ice and snow had not melted, the big city under the horizon still appeared in her sea of consciousness.
"Everyone." Xili whispered in her heart: "We are here."
…
…
When Ye Qing heard the news that Ye Yecheng was under attack, his expression looked like he was being played the most absurd joke.
Who else will attack this city? This city of ice and snow was built by saints and guarded by the strongest humans in the world.
But the person who told her was Ao Xuehua, and Ye Qing had no choice but to believe it.
The journey back from the Forest of Death was extremely smooth. Although Xingxi, who was seriously injured and dying, was left in the ice lake by Xiao to fulfill her belated wish. If there was any regret, it was that Aoxuehua had to fight for Qianmo. He and Xingxi were rescued from that collapsed world and paid an extremely heavy price.
At this time, the previous arrangement finally seemed a bit prescient. Although Mo Xiaojing, the chairman of the Student Government Association, survived successfully, breaking into the Forest of Death alone also brought a huge burden to him. He is still recovering now. In addition, Shang Bei Luan's resignation and the indifferent Third Highness led to the fact that in the end, the only person in charge that Aoxue Hua could find was Ye Qing.
Of course, on the other hand, since Mo Xiaojing is no longer a mortal enemy, the communication between the two major societies has unexpectedly become much more harmonious.
"What's the intention of the Presbyterian Church?" Ye Qing asked while walking quickly through the streets of the college: "And, why doesn't my sister-in-law come?"
"Is this the only case where Tina is your sister-in-law?" Ao Xuehua curled her lips.
The damage caused to Ao Xuehua by the Forest of Death is irreparable, and coupled with the torment of Qixi Zizhi, which is like a gangrene attached to the bones, the once brilliant President Zangxue has shown some signs of aging. In fact, On the way back, Ao Xuehua even briefly suffered from the symptoms of white hair and beard. Fortunately, Christie's help was able to control the symptoms, but now the condition of the Crown Princess of Os is really not optimistic.
Sometimes Ye Qing didn't dare to think that if he really killed the last bloodline of the Os family, then committing suicide would be enough to make up for it. However, for Ao Xuehua herself, she didn't seem to care much. Ye Qing was a little confused.
"Christie will always be my sister-in-law, okay!" Ye Qing replied decisively.
After the battle at Lake of Tranquility, Christie won Ye Qing's respect with his actual actions. After all, if Alaya hadn't helped him pay for it, who knows what would have turned out in the end. He even improved the Eternal Sky Formation and activated Gold. She provided all the means in the balance, not to mention personally teaching her how to open Pandora's box.
But on the other hand, Ye Qing also truly understood what it meant to be a person rejected by the world, so he felt a little more emotional towards this girl who didn't know if he could be called his love rival.
But at this time, the meaning of my sister-in-law is not that.
When did Ye Ye Academy rely on Feixin Gym to get ahead, but now it's time to endure the humiliation and bear the burden.
Over at the Student Government Association, Mo Xiaojing has rarely shown up since he came back. Bei Luan has given up his position and retired, leaving him alone to take the lead. Over at the Snow Burial Society, although Ao Xuehua is still trying to be a strong director, he is not a good person. She knew that she really couldn't rest assured, but looking around at the general environment where Ziquan refused to take over, the only one who could stand up was Ge Sheng. On the other hand, at the Feixin Gym, after Qi Xia resigned, he was still the Ziwei Emperor Star. Senior Sister Ling Yi and Senior Carotes are all unique in their own right, not to mention the semi-saint Alaya Shi, who was originally the one who should be counted on, but at this time, there was no one around. Ye Qing couldn't help but be ridiculed.
"Then I'm sorry." Aoxuehua said lightly. They had already walked out of the gate of Ye Ye College and saw the huge shadow cast by the ancient tree that reached the sky, almost covering the entire Lanyin City.
"Because Feixin Gym has no qualifications to get involved in these things."
The seriously injured President and the Crown Princess of the Os Empire raised her lips and smiled quietly and gracefully: "This is a responsibility that only belongs to you and me."
The shadow of the huge ancient tree fell, and its thick branches hit the barrier of Ye Ye City unreasonably. The whole city could hear the long and thick impact sound like morning bells and evening drums.
Ye Qing covered his ears with one hand and held the corner of the girl's clothes with the other hand: "There are many people here who are taller than us, right?"
Ao Xuehua turned back and smiled: "So I hope there is no need for them to appear."
When Ye Qing and Ao Xuehua arrived at the city wall, the shadow of the huge ancient tree had already struck Ye Yecheng dozens of times.
Ye Qing could clearly feel the huge power contained in the shadowy ancient tree. In a sense, this power was similar to her Eternal Sky Formation. Both existed outside the realm, but they were the same. Possessing power above the heavenly realm.
But after all, it's just a power above the heavenly realm. Ye Yecheng's protective barrier came from the hands of the Lost Moon Saint. When it is fully opened, it can be said to be impregnable in a sense except for attacks from the same realm. , although the shadow of the ancient tree was powerful, the transparent light golden barrier did not even loosen its position.
So Ye Qing felt a little more at ease and looked at the president next to him: "Maybe they won't fight when they are tired, right?"
The girl looked relaxed.
The enemy in front of us currently has no clues at all, and the method used is not any method in the field of human cognition, but it has destructive power comparable to the heavenly realm, but that's all.
No matter who they are, even Ye Yecheng's fundamental barrier cannot be broken, which means that there is no threat for the time being. It is natural to go out of the city to fight. After all, not everyone has the elegance of riding a horse and holding a gun to fight with windmills. Faced with such an encounter, The huge trees stretching from the sky to the ground are really a sight to behold when beaten.
However, Ao Xuehua smiled, opened his mouth and said a simple word.
"What are you doing here?"
While Ao Xuehua's voice came out quietly and long through the barrier, Ye Qing raised his eyebrows calmly.
The language Ao Xuehua spoke did not belong to any human language, but Elvish.
The shadow of the ancient tree trembled slightly, and then stopped its useless attack. A strange, clear and genderless voice slowly came out from it. It turned out to be a reply in Elvish language: "Knock on the door."
"Why are you knocking on the door?" Ye Qing was a little surprised that Ao Xuehua could follow the other party's logic. However, when he thought about it, Her Royal Highness was also a frog-like figure, so he listened with some peace of mind.
Even though there is such a big ancient tree outside Ye Ye City, it is obvious that the residents of this city have not been affected by them. Ye Ye City is not a city for mortals. Even if the existence of heaven is not overwhelming, it is still. It is definitely one of the densest areas in the world. Although Ye Yecheng has never suffered any form of attack in more than a hundred years, they still do their own thing without taking it seriously.
Ye Qing looked at the ancient tree in front of him with a wry smile - the roots of the ancient tree were far away on the other side of the lake, but it could stretch out its branches and hit Ye Yecheng's barrier directly. In a sense, this was the same as knocking on the door. There is no difference.
Except that the shadow of this ancient tree is too big and too long.
Is the other party an elf? Is the other party actually an elf? Ye Qing started to think a little wildly.
But at this time, the ancient tree's answer slowly came: "Knocking on the door is said to be a human etiquette."
Are you elves so sincere? Ye Qing curled his lips and immediately replied without waiting for Ao Xuehua to speak: "We humans still pay attention to making reservations in advance. Have you made a reservation?"
Ye Qing is also a child who is good at Elvish, and may even be more proficient than Ao Xuehua. As the negotiators of Ye Ye College, at this moment, the two of them can really represent the city.
Even if you include your identity, it is enough to represent the city below you.
But this time the ancient tree's answer was meaningful: "We are here as promised."
Ao Xuehua nodded: "That's it, let's talk outside the city."
As she said this, the white wings on the girl's back slowly unfolded. These wings, a spiritual weapon made by a master, had been a favorite of the princess for a long time. At this time, she was seriously injured, so such a convenient means of transportation was even more indispensable.
The princess who flapped her wings and flew up turned her head lightly in the air, her long dark hair tied into a ponytail flying in the air: "Xiaojiu, can I take you for a ride?"
Ye Qing shook his head lightly and smiled sweetly: "Forget it, I'll put the pressure on you."
Saying this, Ye Qing's sleeves fluttered, Wu Feng stood up, and he tilted his head to look at Ao Xuehua: "I feel like I can beat my sister now."
After actual combat in the Forest of Death, Ye Qing's own magic weapons have been further improved. Instant spell casting like this is as easy as breathing. Although Ye Qing's own combat power may never be able to break through the realm, but with magic With the guided weapons and the Eternal Sky Formation, she could still seamlessly connect her complete earth realm and heaven realm combat power. However, facing Ao Xuehua, who was seriously injured and had not yet recovered, it was too modest to say that she could defeat him.
"Okay, okay, I can bully the sick." Ao Xuehua didn't care. He fluttered his wings and turned into a rainbow, passing through the barrier of Ye Ye City and flying straight to the other side of the lake. Ye Qing sighed. He sighed, smiled bitterly on the spot, and then flew out after him.
After coming out of that world, although the changes in this sister were subtle, there was a clear distance from the high-spirited and proud woman before.
Ye Qing knew that his sister Xue Hua would never be as powerful as she once was.
She understands it herself.
…
…
When Ye Qing followed Aoxuehua to the other side of the lake, the snow on the ground had not yet melted. Amid the white mountains and plains, a strange little tree stood there.
The reason why it is said to be a strange small tree is that it grows too abruptly, growing straight in the white snow, with a broad green crown on top.
It has an overwhelming majesty, growing in an inappropriate place at an inappropriate time, but the crown is only as high as Ye Qing.
You should know that Ye Qing is not tall at all, okay?
"Are all the elves disguised like this?" Ye Qing looked at the tree and complained, cleverly using the Lanye language.
Ao Xuehua shrugged: "Can you realize that she is not a tree?"
Aoxuehua tacitly replied in Lanye language.
"Although I can't tell that this tree is an elf." Ye Qing said confidently, "But I just need to understand that there is no such stupid tree."
"Yes." Ao Xuehua nodded, then looked back at the small tree: "I'm here."
Only the words "I'm coming" are in Elvish.
The moment he opened his mouth, Ao Xuehua pulled out the dream. Before Ye Qing could stop it, the president in white stabbed the small tree with his sword.
The emerald green crown of the small tree swayed gently, so countless tiny leaves swayed down, like a colorful falling emerald green snow curtain, or a curtain of fine beads strung from jasper.
Ye Qing remained silent. Dreamland is one of the most powerful and sharp weapons in the world. The only thing above it is the terrifying artifact like Huangtian Disillusionment. It has extremely strong demon-breaking properties. Most of the magic enchantments are in it. It was as fragile as a soap bubble in front of it, but when Ao Xuehua pushed it past with his sword, the small tree didn't even have the slightest intention of dodging, and just shook the green leaves of the tree innocently and in vain.
