The shadow guards below were watching with rapt attention and great interest, with excited expressions on their faces, as if they were completely immersed in the fight between Zero One and Suan Ming.
But Ning Yujin, who was high on the top of the tree, couldn't help scratching her head. She frowned and felt that there was wind blowing and shadows flying in front of her eyes. She couldn't see clearly what they were.
Is this the gap?
"Who is more powerful, Ling Yi or Duan Ming?" Ning Yujin tilted her head and looked at Mo Jingxiao.
Mo Jingxiao stretched out his hand and rubbed her hair, and said slowly: "No matter which one of them is better, Zero One will win."
"ah?"
Ning Yujin didn't understand what Mo Jingxiao meant for a moment, when she heard a loud "bang" sound coming from below.
All the chatter around them stopped at this moment, and they all looked quietly at the two people competing in the center.
She lowered her head to look, and saw Ling Yi sliding back a few steps. The stick in his hand came out and was pressed against his back, and then he stopped.
But Duan Ming still stood there, not taking a step back, but he didn't show any joyful expression of victory. Instead, he lowered his head and frowned, staring at the mute piano in his hand.
The surrounding wind noise was a bit strange. Ning Yujin stared at the two people for a long time, but she didn't see the result.
On the surface, it seems... he won by taking his life, right?
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard several "clang-clang-clan" sounds piercing the air, and the soundless harp in Duan Ming's hand suddenly broke all the strings, and all of them bounced away.
The strings were condensed with internal force, so even if they were broken, they would still be powerful. The moment the strings bounced away, the man holding the strings was suddenly hit. Before he could even move away, "swish, swish, swish" appeared on his face and body.
"There were several bloodstains on the ground, as if cut with a sharp blade.
This sudden change made Ning Yujin a little confused. Thinking of what Mo Jingxiao said just now, could it be that he deliberately gave up his life to Zero One?
As if he could read her mind, Mo Jingxiao easily understood what she was thinking and explained to her: "When people of similar strength compete against each other, there is usually no question of giving or not, because if anyone has
If you slack off a little bit, your life is at stake."
"But just now... it was clear that Zero One was forced to retreat!" Ning Yujin frowned and was very puzzled. She only felt that the dazzling world they were flying around was really not something that a mortal like her could understand.
.
When Mo Jingxiao saw Ning Yujin's appearance, he couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth: "Ling Yi has a unique move called Bone Erosion Palm. The person who is struck by the move doesn't feel much at first, but later on he will find that the place where the palm was hit will slowly
The pain becomes more and more painful, and eventually even the bones will turn black. This palm is all about staying power. When it is first struck, it is light and has no strength, so it is easy for people to lose their vigilance."
"It sounds so powerful!" Ning Yujin's eyes widened suddenly, as if he suddenly thought of something, "Did Zero One just slap the soundless piano, and Duan Ming didn't notice the power, but he felt
There's something wrong with the soundless harp, so you keep staring at it?"
"Smart." Mo Jingxiao narrowed his elegant and narrow phoenix eyes slightly and reached out to rub Ning Yujin's head.
Ning Yujin quickly turned her head to avoid it, pouted her mouth and puffed out her cheeks and said dissatisfiedly: "This is really like treating cats and dogs..."
The curvature of the corners of Mo Jingxiao's mouth suddenly widened, and he was obviously in a good mood.
He lowered his head to look at the dead body below. The expression on his face dropped, and he had a condescending and cold posture, as if a god in the clouds was overlooking all living beings. For a moment, he lowered his eyes, as if the universe was changing in an instant.
He asked Juehun calmly: "Can you go back and explain?"
"It should be possible." Duan Ming said indifferently.
He held the mute piano with its broken strings under his arm, reached out and dipped his hand into the wound on his face. When he lowered his head and saw bright red blood, he stuffed it into his mouth and sipped it, with an unconcerned look on his face.
appearance.
"Anyway, thank you very much." He raised his head and smiled at Mo Jingxiao, then looked at Ning Yujin, "My little friend, come and have a drink with me again when you have time!"
"The devil wants you to drink!" Ning Yujin dismissed it without politeness.
She drank with someone who tied her up twice in a row, unless she had water in her head!
By the way, the first time doesn't count, it was because I fell into his trap without knowing it.
Na Duan Ming burst out laughing: "Little friend, when you become a ghost, remember to come to me for a drink!"
"Gewuen!!"
Ning Yujin was speechless. Is there such a shameless person in this world?
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Duan Ming turned around and swept away a long distance with one long step. In the blink of an eye, his figure was no longer visible, and he could only hear the bold laughter that still echoed in the forest.
None of the shadow guards gave chase. Zero One put away the fighting stick, reduced it to the size of a rolling pin, and put it back in his sleeve.
Ning Yujin finally understood what Mo Jingxiao meant. She decided to work for the Empress Dowager. If she failed to take her away, she would be blamed when she returned. She was injured here.
You can also say when you go back, "I did my best, and it's just because the enemy is too cunning." This can save you a lot of trouble by using a trick.
But what makes Ning Yujin strange is——
"You actually help that old witch, the Queen Mother?"
Mo Jingxiao shook his head: "Tianji Pavilion originally belonged to each emperor of each dynasty, similar to the shadow guards around me, but they only recognized the cards and not the people. When the emperor returned to the palace and ascended the throne, my father had already arrived.
It had been a while since the collapse, and the Empress Dowager took Tianji Pavilion as her own. These people are not the confidants she cultivated, they are just people who work for her."
"Oh...it's so complicated." Ning Yujin supported her chin with her hands and nodded as if she suddenly understood.
"It's nothing complicated, don't think too much." Mo Jingxiao hugged her and landed on the ground, where several horses were already waiting.
Ning Yujin looked at the sleek and fat black horse, and immediately ran over and patted its head: "Hello, little Heihei!"
The horse seemed to be dissatisfied with her calling its name by mistake, and snorted at her. Its big eyes seemed to express disdain for her.
Ning Yujin suddenly chuckled and ran to Mo Jingxiao again.
Mo Jingxiao looked at her as if she hadn't grown up, and couldn't help but shook his head, stretched out his hand to lift her up, turned her over, and they both sat firmly on the horse.
