Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 888 The Covenant
"Me," Ying Baoyue said softly, wiping the back of the man in front of him, "I'm hiding something very important from you."

The sky was completely dark, and the lights in the horn lamps reflected the young faces of the two people.The room was very quiet, so quiet that only the girl's breathing could be heard.

Ying Baoyue's tone was solemn, and Li Ji tensed his back slightly, but he immediately relaxed when he thought of something.

After all, isn't there a lot of secrets about her?
He thought she was talking about something big, but it turned out that she just said that she had a secret.He watched her walking all the way, and he knew that this woman was far from being as simple as her appearance.After all, how could it be possible for a princess raised in a deep palace to conquer all the heroes and become the leader of the primary ceremony.

This girl named Ying Baoyue has a big secret.This is something he knew when he met her in the former Qin Dynasty and she still claimed to be Gui Mingyue.

Not to mention anything else, just relying on the ruby ​​curse in her body to survive is not something ordinary people can do.

Of course she had something to hide from him, it would be better to say that she was hiding something from the whole world.But what's the big deal?Who can say everything to others?What Li Ji didn't understand was why she brought it up at this moment.

"What are you hiding from me?" Li Ji asked softly with his back turned to Ying Baoyue, "Can't you tell me?"

"Well," Ying Baoyue nodded, "I can't say now."

"I lied to you, but I can't tell you now," she said softly, looking at the spine of the person in front of her. "I still have a lot to do, please allow me to be mean for a while."

Although it was not fair to Li Ji, but she didn't have much time, and if she lived or died within a year, she would not be despicable for a long time.

"You are not a mean person." However, just as she finished speaking, a man's voice came from below muffled.

Ying Baoyue was taken aback when she heard the words, and fixedly looked at the back of the person in front of her.

Li Ji didn't turn around, lowered his head and said the words without thinking.After reacting, he also felt that there was no problem.

Although he didn't get along with this woman for a long time, his every move fell into his eyes. He didn't know why Ying Baoyue called himself despicable. If she was still despicable, then no one else in the practice world would be able to see it.

Ying Baoyue was stunned for a short moment, then looked at him and smiled the next moment, "Thank you for your compliment."

Li Ji wanted to say that this was not a compliment, but that he just told a fact, but the girl smiled and continued, "But even if it compliments me, I can't say it now."

She didn't want to die so early.

Even though Li Ji had sealed the acupoints with golden needles, there was still a disparity in strength between them.Besides, given Li Ji's affection for that woman named Li Zhao, no one knew what he would do after knowing her true identity.Just like she would burst out with strength beyond her limit in order to avenge her master, maybe this person could get all the golden needles out in a hurry.

She has understood a truth since she was a child, that is, never test human nature.

So she couldn't tell him her true identity until she was strong enough to protect herself.

But even though she didn't want to die, she didn't want to be mean for so long.

"But I won't hide you for how long." Ying Baoyue wiped off the sweat on Li Ji's back, staring at his back, she said softly, "Li Ji, I will become a heavenly rank."

Li Ji's back trembled slightly, and the next moment he said, "I believe you can do it."

From ordinary people to cultivators, from rank ten to rank six, this woman has already achieved it within a few months.She said she was going to be the leader of the Junior Ceremony, and she did.Since she said so, he believed that she could become a god dancer, and finally a heavenly rank.

Ying Baoyue laughed again when she heard the words, looked at him and said seriously, "I will tell you about it when the time comes."

"But now, allow me to hide it for a while."

If it was really her fault, she would not hesitate to bear the consequences.

This is a promise and an agreement.

Li Ji paused for breath, although he didn't know what she wanted to tell him, but he heard the woman's determination from it.

He heard the words and nodded, "Okay, it's a deal."

"Well," Ying Baoyue nodded, regaining his usual calm, picked up the jacket he had thrown aside, and draped it over the spine of the person in front of him, "After the needle is done, you can't use your true energy or see the wind for three days. If you are disobedient and wind evil enters your body, I won't care if you hurt to death."

Li Ji smiled wryly when he heard the words, sat up with his clothes folded up, looked back at the girl who was packing the needle bag, moved her limbs, and stared at her for a moment, "Level four?"

"What? You still expect me to lower you to rank five?" Ying Baoyue said.

Why didn't he expect her to kill him with one move?
Ying Baoyue looked up at Li Ji, his aura was weaker than when she first saw him, "Don't worry, your current strength is weaker than before you broke through the sky rank, which is equivalent to just breaking through." Level four."

If she guessed correctly, this person should have been in the realm of the fourth rank for many years, causing this realm to be deeply ingrained in his body, making it difficult to force him down.

But before getting the needle, Li Ji really meant to drop to the fifth rank, and she actually tried, but...

Ying Baoyue raised her hand and looked at the red dot on her middle finger.

Li Ji also noticed, his pupils shrank, "What's wrong with your hand?"

He wanted to reach out to touch it, but when he moved his hand, he realized that it was wrong, so he pressed it down again.

"It's nothing, I just got stabbed." Ying Baoyue curled up her fingers, looked up at the deep eyes in the man's mask, hesitated for a moment and asked, "Is there... something in your body?"

The accident happened when she got the sixth needle.When she wanted to push the needle deeper, she was counterattacked by his body. The golden needle that was about to be pressed suddenly popped out, and instead pierced her hand.

But when Li Ji turned his back to her, he didn't seem to notice anything. He relaxed his entire back in front of her. This reaction was obviously not from Li Ji's own will.

At that time, Ying Baoyue really felt that there was something deep in Li Ji's body.

On the sixth spine, Ying Baoyue stroked the red dot on her fingertips, which happened to be the position of the heart.

She inadvertently touched the extremely powerful ball, but the position was too deep, and Ying Baoyue couldn't feel what it was at all, so she had to control the depth of the needle.

"Inside..." Li Ji was startled when he heard the words, and pressed his chest, "I don't know very well."

However, he did know that his physique was a bit special. He had survived from the front line of life and death, and all the meridians in his body were broken. Maybe there was a change in his body at that time.

"My adoptive father also helped me look at my body, and he also suspected that there was something in my body," Li Ji said after a pause, "but he said that his realm had dropped so much that he couldn't see it."

No matter how much Dongfangyi's realm has dropped, it is still at the sky level, and he is the strongest water mage who has ever been recognized by the Azure Dragon God.Ying Baoyue's eyes froze slightly, what could be something that even the old man couldn't see?
