Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 1080 Confrontation
The second round of the military battle and the third round of the Six Arts of the Intermediate Ceremony were held consecutively, without a break in between. The Six Arts Battle would be held the day after the cavalry and archery battle.

Too many things happened in a military battle, and it was not enough for the people in Ruyang City to digest in just one night.

That night, the restaurants and teahouses in Ruyang City were brightly lit all night, only the inns and other courtyards where the participating practitioners lived were quiet, and passers-by walked lightly, for fear of disturbing these young people who were taking time to rest.

"I'm troubling you again."

Standing in the quiet courtyard, Li Ji said to Song Qian.

"Where is it?" Song Qian cupped his hands and smiled back, "Mr. Zhaohua, you don't need to be polite."

The Shi'an Courtyard was also quiet, Li Ji couldn't resist the noisy Zhao Guang, and agreed to stay in the Shi'an Courtyard tonight instead of going back to the county palace.

Naturally, Song Qian had no objection. Zhao Guang lived here all the time during Ying Baoyue's special training, and Li Ji often borrowed books here. Both of them had rooms ready-made.

Song Qian looked at the neither humble nor overbearing practitioner in front of him, smiled and said, "Maybe there will be a few noble people in my yard in the future."

People in the middle Tang Dynasty did not have outstanding military power, but as businessmen for generations, they were best at one thing, and that was investment.

Through today's riding and shooting battle, he has further realized the military power of this Lord Zhaohua, and it is even more shocking to think that all this was done while he suppressed the realm.

Of course, there is another person who is terrifying. Thinking of the scene of five people chasing today, who would have thought that there was a sixth-level person in it?
"It's getting late, go to bed early."

Song Qian and Li Ji, who were the hosts, said goodnight to each other, and each left to go to their own rooms.

Previously, for the convenience of special training, the courtyards of those who participated in the intermediate ceremony were all arranged together. The World Security Academy is just a separate courtyard, and there is no distinction between the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard.

Li Ji walked halfway, and suddenly stopped in front of an elegant small courtyard.

The gate of the courtyard was wide open, and a woman was sitting beside the stone table in the courtyard, resting her stomach on one hand, as if she was thinking about something.

Under the moonlit night, the girl's skin was as white as snow.

This picture should be quiet and beautiful, but if you look closely, you can find that her other hand is placed on the stone table, her fingers are drawing circles on the stone table, and a colorful snake is circling between her fingers go.

She... is playing with snakes.

Li Ji raised his forehead slightly, and glanced at Ji Ange, Li Jinniang, and Gui Li who were sitting on the steps not far away, watching Ying Baoyue playing with snakes in fear. After bowing to the three of them, he walked into the courtyard and looked at Ying Baoyue. moon.

"What are you thinking?"

It was rare for her to have such a thoughtful look. Ji Ange and the others probably wanted to ask, but they were too scared by the snake to ask.

After all, an ordinary girl, who would dare to play with a snake...

Seeing him approaching, all three of Ji Ange returned to the house.

"I didn't think about anything," Ying Baoyue raised her head to look at him, and said with a smile, "I was just wondering how much it would cost to kill Helianyan."

This is called thinking about something?
Li Ji was silent for a moment, trying to ignore Zhenghuan Xiaohua who was playing under her fingers, walked to the stone table and sat down, "Your left hand..."

"It's quiet now," Ying Baoyue said, "It's my fault. When you asked me before, I should have paid more attention."

He Lianyan's strategies are all in one, and she has done a good job.

First, through the wrestling battle, the fatigue accumulated in her left hand laid a hidden danger for her loss of control later, and then through the fierce riding and shooting battle, Ying Baoyue used her left hand, and finally led Ji Jiashu to his side...

He wove a dense web for her.

But Ying Baoyue couldn't understand something.

"I'm just a sixth-level cultivator now," Ying Baoyue took a deep breath, "Why don't you just attack me if you have something to do?"

Wait, that guy seems to have already done that.

Ying Baoyue remembered the things that happened on the way to Soochow before. At that time, He Lianyan really wanted to put her to death.

But now rather than letting her die, Ying Baoyue found that he seemed to want her to lose control more.

"That person always does what he wants," Li Ji said quietly, without delving into Helianyan's purpose, but only answered Ying Baoyue's original question, "As for killing him, I tried it three years ago."

Ying Baoyue was a little surprised.

After all, Li Ji has always given her the feeling that there is no wave in the ancient well, as if he has no interest in world affairs.

Although He Lianyan is unfathomable, he should not be able to kill him who is even more unfathomable.

"Killing him alone, I don't know how many young practitioners can avoid being murdered," Li Ji said lightly, "So when I was in the Northern Wei Dynasty, I tried it."

"At that time, the king of the Northern Wei Dynasty also noticed the existence of this person. He offered a reward of 1000 taels of gold and sent three Tianjie to kill this person."

Under the plain words of this person, I don't know how many bloody storms there were.

Ying Baoyue had an ominous premonition, "And then?"

"He disappeared for three years," Li Ji said indifferently, "but as you can see, he didn't succeed."

If it succeeds, this person will not be able to be so alive and kicking.

Obviously, He Lianyan hid back to Xirong from the Northern Wei Dynasty. Although he hid, he was able to retreat back to Xirong with his whole body under such a siege. This person was scary enough.

"Before the Northern Wei Dynasty was so big, but he didn't even know his true identity," Li Ji said lightly, "As long as he can hide his eyes well, he can appear with a new identity at any time."

Under the moonlight, Li Ji's eyes were gloomy.

"If I'm not mistaken, he is protected by the Son of God behind him."

Even if He Lianyan has three heads and six arms, it is impossible to escape from Tianjie's hands without the help of practitioners above Tianjie.

Ying Baoyue paused slightly for playing with snakes.

Son of God of Xirong.

Mr. Yunzhong.

This is the most mysterious child of the eight gods except for the mountain ghost. He has never shown his face. No one knows what he looks like, not even the kung fu and sword school he practiced.

No one knows how Xi Rong was able to give birth to a son of God under the strict guard of the Emperor Taizu back then. Is this person born and raised in Xi Rong, or a mixed blood, or...

Ying Baoyue put away her thoughts.

"If it wasn't for the age mismatch, I would have guessed whether he was Yun Zhongjun."

Li Ji glanced at her, "You really dare to think."

Boldly assuming and verifying carefully, Ying Baoyue touched the smooth scales of Xiaohua. After all, she can be the young commander. A young man who looks about her age is Yun Zhongjun, so it is not necessarily impossible.

"If he was really Lord Yunzhong, I wouldn't be able to survive," Li Ji said indifferently. That person really wanted to kill him in Beihan Pavilion, although he didn't know why the killing intent disappeared in the end.

"If you want to kill him, you must at least have a celestial cultivator take action," Li Ji said calmly, "but the celestial ranks in Ruyang City will not do anything without the order of the King of Soochow."

"That means there will be no one left," Ying Baoyue smiled wryly. Zhao Muren is responsible for the entire country, so he must act cautiously.

The war at Tianjie symbolizes the will of the country. Before the Northern Wei Dynasty, the king was able to send Tianjie to chase after him because He Lianyan did not use the name of Xirong to carry out the assassination. But at this time Helianyan is a member of the Xirong mission. If Xirong is not Zhao Muren can't give orders to officially start a war with the six countries. Once the order is not done well, it will become the fuse of the war.

It is even more impossible for other celestial practitioners to do it on their own.

"No, there is one more person." Li Ji looked into Ying Baoyue's eyes.

"Yes..." Ying Baoyue was about to ask who it was, but Li Ji was taken aback suddenly, stood up and asked, "Wait, where's Ji Jiashu?"

The courtyard where Ji Jiashu lived was very close to Ying Baoyue, but Li Ji didn't notice his aura.

Ying Baoyue was taken aback for a moment, then stood up and looked towards the dark courtyard not far away.

……

……

In the inn where the Xirong people lived, He Lianyan looked at his companions who were staggering in the hall, closed the door for them, and walked to his guest room alone.

But just as he walked through the courtyard between the hall and the guest room, he stopped by a tree.

"It's really rare to have a visitor late at night."

He Lianyan lowered his head, looking at the cold front in front of his throat.

Appearing and disappearing without making a sound, the sword appeared in front of his throat. An ordinary person might be scared to death, but Helianyan's voice was very calm.

"Is it strange?" Ji Jiashu slowly walked out from behind the tree holding the Spring Thunder Sword in his hand.

"For some reason, I seem to give the impression that I'm easy to kill."

Under the moonlight, the boy's eyes were calm.

"Let me correct that."

　handsome!
