Misery: my feet step out of the flames of war

The next day.

Le Xunyuan walked out of the guest hall and found that the royal city was decorated with lights and the atmosphere was noisy. The whole city was celebrating Princess Shuangyue's coming-of-age ceremony.

The city lord opened the city gate specially for the princess' coming-of-age ceremony, so many people from outside the city poured into the city, gathered together and laughed, but the residents in the royal city were still going about their work to raise their souls, and everything seemed to be out of context.

Le Xunyuan found an excuse to leave the city and listened to the jokes of the people outside the city:

"I really hope that the princess will come of age this year, get married next year, and have her eldest son the year after that, so that those of us from outside the city can enter the city and enjoy the high benefits of the royal city."

"I heard that Princess Shuangyue is amazingly beautiful. I wonder who is lucky enough to become the Prince Consort."

Someone said mysteriously: "There is a peerless swordsman who lives in Fuyunzhan outside the city. It is said that he has been favored by the princess for a long time. He is also the princess's swordsmanship teacher. Even the imperial master is respectful to him."

Amidst the comments of passers-by, a very delicate-looking aristocratic woman wearing a red dress and a maid passed by Le Xunyuan.

"Caifeng, my head is a little dizzy. This celebration has gone on for too long."

"Princess, the coming-of-age ceremony is a once-in-a-lifetime event."

"It's too extravagant. I always feel that it's a bit exaggerated for me to create such a big pomp on my birthday alone."

Le Xunyuan's heart moved slightly. He looked back and saw the woman walking gloomily with a frown on her face.

The maid on the side tried her best to explain to her: "This is all the city lord's wish."

"Yes, I'm a little tired, help me back."

"Yes."

It turned out that this girl was Princess Shuangyue. From the conversation between the two, it could be heard that the princess did not like such exaggeration and excitement. Le Xunyuan shook his head and hurried out of the city to a wilderness corner of Lingzhou, Beihai.

Dead trees, old vines, and dim crows.

In the hoarse croaking sound, Crow Soul and Eternal Sky walked out side by side.

"Xunyuan, how is the situation in the city?"

"Brother Crow Soul, Brother Changkong, Beihai Lingzhou is really weird, the details are like this..."

Le Xunyuan explained what he discovered last night one by one. In addition to the anomalies in the residents of the city, there was also the fact that Xianzong Wuming and the city lord Haotian seemed to be old acquaintances. No relationship.

Crow Soul was in charge of intelligence work, but analysis was obviously not his specialty. The three of them combined their efforts and decided to send the message back to Tiandu first.

"Xunyuan, have you ever seen Young Master Liotian and Miss Ji in the city?"

"No, except for Mr. Qing, there are Sui Wuduan from Confucianism and Huo Qingyun from Shenglongkou."

"Young Master must not have entered the city yet, so we will continue to inquire. There are many dangers in the city, so you should be more careful."

"Xunyuan understands, please."

"please."

At the same time, Princess Shuangyue returned to the boudoir in the palace, and Huo saw the city lord Haotian waiting for her in the room.

The maid hurriedly knelt down and worshiped.

Princess Shuangyue asked in surprise: "Why didn't your father go to the banquet?"

"Aren't you two leaving the table too?"

"My daughter thought that her father liked the lively atmosphere, so she took the opportunity to hold such a big banquet."

"Ruofan, this is your coming-of-age ceremony. Of course I can't do it casually, but more importantly, I hope you understand one thing."

The princess asked in confusion: "What's the matter?"

"Father is a human being, and he will also grow old one day. In the future, this land will be governed by you."

"How come my father suddenly said this?" Haotian looked solemn, but there was a hint in his words: "Some things are not about what we like or don't like, but what this country needs."

"daughter……"

"Just like today, I need the people to know that the heir of a country has grown up. Ruofan, the coming-of-age ceremony means that you have left the age of childhood and become an adult who can be responsible for your own life and even the entire country. My father has a lot to do with you. expectations.”

"Ruofan understands."

Suddenly, a brilliant golden necklace appeared in Haotian's hand.

The maid on the side couldn't help but exclaimed: "So beautiful!"

"This is the heart of Beizhou's national treasure, and from today on, it will belong to my precious daughter."

Princess Shuangyue hurriedly refused: "It is the heart of all spirits, one of the three spirits of Beihai Lingzhou! This is too precious, father, I should not accept it."

The Three Spiritual Mirrors, the most precious treasure of Lingzhou, are actually composed of the North Sea Spirit Mirror, the Heart of All Spirits, and the Yun of All Spirits. The North Sea Spirit Mirror and the Yun of All Spirits are both in the form of mirrors. Unexpectedly, the Heart of All Spirits would be a necklace.

But the princess really didn't know what the purpose of this necklace was. It was just an instinct that made her refuse to accept it.

Not allowing her to say anything, Haotian put the necklace on the princess with his own hands: "My daughter, Haotian, is of course qualified to wear a national treasure. What, you don't listen to my father?"

The princess said helplessly: "Thank you very much, Dad."

"It's very beautiful! In this city, only my Ruofan is worthy of such a treasure. However, as the ruler of the country, one day you will encounter a difficult choice."

After receiving this great gift, the princess became even more confused and immediately promised: "Father, if anyone is willing to learn from you, I will never let my father down."

"Okay, okay, hahahahaha!"

Le Xunyuan returned to the guest hall. Qinggongzi and Huo Qingyun didn't know where they went. Only Sui Wuzuan sat cross-legged in silence, and a circle of strong sword intent was like a substance, constantly rotating around Sui Wuzuan.

What a strong sword spirit!

Le Xunyuan was secretly frightened, so he brought a basket of food.

"Sui Wugui, this is a meal I just bought when I passed by the market. Please enjoy it together."

"Thank you."

Sui Wu ended his breath adjustment, reached out to take the food basket, took out a piece of dried meat, put it into his mouth and started eating.

Seeing that he was eating naturally, Le Xunyuan asked unconsciously: "Have you never been defensive about others?"

"Ok?"

"Ha, after all, we are competitors of World Douqi."

Sui was stunned for no reason: "I don't understand what you mean?"

Le Xunyuan thought of Xian Zong Wuming's unfathomable gaze and said cautiously: "For selfish desires, many people will do whatever it takes. We are one of the contestants. Maybe we will become the targets of others before the start of the competition."

"You told us to be more prepared."

"Due to your unreasonable personality, as long as others show a little kindness, you won't be defensive, such as towards that lover boy."

"I understand."

Le Xunyuan didn't know why he reminded Sui Wutuo of this. In fact, the relationship between Tiandu and the Defeng Ancient Road was not friendly. The Defeng Ancient Road was now in tatters. There was no limit to the sea of ​​learning, but the old trees were sprouting new green. With the support of Lord Wu, Next, he will lead the Confucian sect again.

Just as Le Xunyuan was deep in thought, he suddenly heard Sui ask for no reason: "Is Shengsi okay?"

Not long ago, Shaohao got married, and Mo Qingchi also came to Tiandu to congratulate him. He looked at him from a distance and looked at him with a happy expression and a beautiful scene.

"Shengji looks fine."

The two chatted for a while, and then a messenger came from the city lord's palace to convey the message. Tomorrow evening, the World Fight will officially begin in the Beihai Shrine. (End of chapter)
