The entire Yunfang City is under complete martial law, and all entry and exit must be strictly inspected.
In the streets and alleys, imperial guards in heavy armor can be seen everywhere.
But on this day, Ning Tiance was sitting in the palace with Zhou Minruo in his arms, feeling lost and lost.
Even when Emperor Zhou sent his attendants, he never paid him a visit.
The God of War in the North languished all night.
But early the next morning, Ning Tiance suddenly left the palace in plain clothes and went to Jiangyu Inn, where he drank alone until dusk.
Chu Dahai stood in a pavilion next to the inn, looking at the passers-by with gloomy eyes.
He did have some understanding of Ning Tiance's habits.
In the past ten years, he has been hiding in this small restaurant to drink away his sorrows.
The owner of this restaurant has already been secretly investigated by the palace.
An old man with no cultivation experience and no background. He once served in the army in the north, and then returned to the capital after being injured and opened this small restaurant.
And this is probably the reason why Ning Tiance comes often.
Ling Xiao held Ning'er's hand and walked on the streets of the ancient city.
At this time, he could feel Chu Dahai's aura, but he didn't take it seriously.
Nowadays, there are undercurrents surging in Yunfang City, and if you are not careful, you will attract attention.
It would be better to be more open-minded so as not to make people suspicious.
"Brother...you want to take me to see...who?"
Ning'er seemed to be aware of it, and her face was a little nervous along the way.
Ling Xiao just smiled and shook his head, "Don't be afraid, Ning'er. I'm going to take you to see your father. He is a great hero."
"Brother...don't you want Ning'er anymore?"
In an instant, tears appeared in Ning'er's eyes.
She really didn't have much understanding of the word father.
But in the past few days, the more she got along with Ye Qingchan and Ling Xiao, the more she became dependent on them.
"How could it be? We just met him and then went back to the Heavenly Palace. Your sister Qingchan is still waiting for you."
Ling Xiao smiled gently.
Just kidding, even if you want to follow your father, I wouldn't worry about it!
I still count on you...
No, this Yunfang City is in such chaos, I don’t think your father will let you stay here.
"Really! I like you and sister Qingchan!"
A smile suddenly bloomed on Ning'er's face.
And Ling Xiao's footsteps finally entered the hut.
"Brother Xiao!!"
Sure enough, Ning Tiance had been waiting for a long time, his eyes were blood red and he was very haggard.
"This...this is..."
Suddenly, Ning Tiance was stunned. In other words, when he saw Ning'er for the first time, he felt an inexplicable emotion.
Tears began to well up in his eyes, but when he walked to Ning'er, the latter hid behind Ling Xiao with some fear.
"Brother, she is Ning'er!"
Ling Xiao smiled gently and winked at Ning Tiance.
"Don't worry, Brother Xiao, this restaurant owner is my old subordinate. As for the informants outside..."
Ning Tiance suddenly sneered, and a sudden inspiration suddenly appeared in Yunfang City, and chaos arose.
It was obvious that although Ning Tiance had been in the imperial capital for a long time, he still had some loyal subordinates following him.
"Ning'er, he is your father. Ning Tiance is also the God of War of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He is a great hero who is admired."
Ling Xiao took Ning'er's hand and pulled her to Ning Tiance, "Your father didn't want to abandon you at the beginning. He just had important matters at hand, so he fostered you in Xuyun City. You, father and daughter, have a good chat.
Bar."
"Is it true, you are a great hero?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Ning'er's eyes. Along the way, she had also imagined what her parents looked like.
Although she didn't understand the word God of War, a great hero was what every child longed for in his father.
My father is a great hero.
"I...was, Ning'er...you have suffered a lot these years."
Ning Tiance smiled bitterly, his eyes lonely.
"Brother, Yunfang City is too turbulent now. I think Ning'er should follow me for the time being?"
A look of solemnity flashed in Ling Xiao's eyes, but Ning Tiance finally nodded and looked at Ling Xiao gratefully, "Brother Xiao, I will never forget this kindness for the rest of my life."
"Hey! The destiny of the people has surrendered. Congratulations to the host for plundering 500 points of luck and 5,000 points for the villain."
"Brother is serious. Emperor Zhou is insidious and plotting against the God of War to protect the country. Brother just needs to wait patiently. I think it won't be long before he will beg you to return to the north to lead his troops."
"Huh? Brother Xiao..."
"I will take Ning'er to Daxia. If brother believes in me, just wait with peace of mind. As for Ning'er's safety, brother, there is no need to worry. I swear with my Taoist heart to protect her."
Ling Xiao looked calm, but Ning Tiance only pondered for a moment and nodded slowly.
"When I return to the north, I am willing to accompany Brother Xiao to conquer the world!"
At this time, although Ning Tiance didn't know Ling Xiao's identity, he could feel that this little brother had great ambitions in his heart.
It's just that this kind of ambition is not insidious, but open and frank, making people unable to guard against it.
"Brother, you are wrong. I want you to lead the army, not to accompany me to conquer the world. I just promised a person to take back his country. Once this wish is fulfilled, I will leave Xijiang. As for the world, I will give it to
What's wrong with you?"
Ling Xiao smiled freely, but Ning Tiance's eyes suddenly condensed.
It turns out... I misunderstood him!
Faithfulness, honesty, and eternal supremacy are not worth the promise in his eyes!
At this moment, a hearty smile suddenly bloomed on Ning Tiance's face.
"Hey! The destined person has completely surrendered, which will trigger additional rewards. Congratulations to the host for getting a chance to perfect the Tao, the ancient immortal formation, and the Nine Dragons Locking Heaven Formation!"
"Haha, it's finally here."
Ling Xiao lowered his head and glanced at Ning'er, "Ning'er, it's time for us to leave. I think... you and your daughter will be truly reunited soon."
"Ning'er..."
Ning Tiance's eyes were full of reluctance, and Ning'er was not as timid and refused as she was at first. Instead, she looked at Ning Tiance and suddenly said, "Then next time we meet, can you tell me how you protect your family?"
Are you defending your country?"
"Of course! Of course! Ning'er...when you are with your Uncle Xiao, you must be obedient..."
"Uncle Xiao?"
A flash of doubt flashed in Ning'er's eyes, but Ling Xiao rubbed her head, "It doesn't matter, you can call her whatever you want, it's not important."
"Brother Xiao, this is my secret order. Only the generals in the Northern Territory will know it! You should carry it with you. If I... really can't get out of this imperial capital, you can also command millions of soldiers in the Northern Territory!"
Ning Tiance took out an ancient order from his arms and handed it to Ling Xiao, with a look of dominance in his eyes.
"Brother... that's fine! If you can't leave the imperial capital, I will come here to take you out!"
Ling Xiao took a deep breath and finally stopped hesitating. He held Ning'er's little hand and walked out of the restaurant, cursing, "Fuck, why are you drinking here but not us here? Who do you think you are, the God of War!
"
Ning'er stared at Ling Xiao dumbfounded, obviously not understanding why her brother... suddenly turned against him.
Ye Qingchan had been waiting in the distance for a long time. When she saw the two people approaching, a gentle smile suddenly bloomed on her beautiful face.
The three of them walked hand in hand, and Chu Dahai's figure swept over from the distant sky. He glanced at Ling Xiao warily, but did not stop him.
Two delusional people, with fairy clouds overflowing outside their bodies, and the light of the Dao shimmering, walking so openly on the street, they must not be evil cultivators, they look like Taoist couples traveling through mountains and rivers.
Moreover, judging from their age, it is even more unlikely that they are Ning Tiance's old subordinates.
It's just...that little girl's appearance...how...
Should I remind that boy to be careful... Lao Wang next door?
Until Ling Xiao and the others walked out of Yunfang City and summoned the Nine Dragons Golden Chariot, the outline of the big city beneath them gradually became smaller and disappeared.
Now that the chess game of the Great Zhou Dynasty has been set, all that is left is an east wind.
Ning Tiance is destined to become Ling Xiao's sharp blade in his conquest of Western Xinjiang.
