Chapter 354 Battle on the Mountain, the Mystery of Xiaojiu
The Ula Saint Boya Mountains are located in the southeast of the Luowu Empire. It has a vast territory and has many mountains with an altitude of more than a thousand meters, covered with ice and snow all year round.
At this moment, a group of people were stationed somewhere in the mountains.
"Elder! Elder!"
In one of the tents, a young man suddenly ran in from outside.
"What's all the fuss about?" On the seat, a hunchbacked old man was looking at the map in his hand.
"Elder, I seem to have seen 'Xiaojiu'." The visitor said excitedly.
"Xiaojiu?"
The hunchbacked old man didn't react at first, but after he recited it silently twice, his eyes widened suddenly and he almost dropped the map in his hand.
"What did you just say? Say it again!" The hunchbacked old man was very excited.
"Elder, when we were patrolling, we saw a person who looked very much like 'Xiao Jiu'."
"Are you sure?"
"It's too far away, but they look similar. The thirteenth brother has already chased them."
The expression of the hunchbacked old man began to blur, and the memories of the past reappeared in his mind.
Xiaojiu is the ninth Yuna among the younger generation in the family. She has been extremely talented since she was a child, but she was expelled from the family due to a misunderstanding because of her stubborn temper.
Yuna was the first to question the "family's mission to slay dragons." Now the truth is revealed. The Lewis family was originally branched off from the "Trantes family" and was not a dragon-slaying family at all, but a famous dragon family on this continent.
Knight family.
After learning the truth, the Lewis family left the Aroca Empire directly, moved to this vast and sparsely populated place, merged with the former bloodline people, and officially changed their name to "Trantus".
I don’t know how that child lived these years. He disappeared for several years and there was no news at all.
"Elder, don't worry, if it's really Xiao Jiu, the thirteenth brother will definitely bring Xiao Jiu back."
"Xiaojiu's temper is too stubborn. She may not be willing to come back. Thirteen cannot defeat Xiaojiu. In this case, you quickly go to your fifth brother and ask him to go. No matter what, you must bring Xiaojiu back to me.
"
"yes!"
The top of the snow mountain is covered with snow.
The Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear chased the figure in front of them until they reached the top of the mountain.
The cold wind was as sharp as a knife, rolling up the snow on the ground, making it impossible to see clearly.
Seeing the person in front of him running further and further away, Holy Spear Nine Shadows suddenly shouted: "Ninth Sister! Ninth Sister, is that you?"
This sound was quickly swallowed up by the cold wind.
However, the figure in front suddenly stopped.
Seeing this scene, the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear hurriedly increased their fighting spirit and ran quickly, finally arriving in front of the man.
The graceful figure is covered with a thick fur cloak, and the snow has already covered the combat boots under the woman's feet.
"Little Thirteen, I haven't seen you for a while, you have grown up." The woman's cold voice was caught in the wind and snow, and reached the ears of the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear.
At this moment, the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear shook their bodies: "Ninth Sister!"
I was sure that this person was really my ninth sister. Suddenly, I felt that the wind and snow were no longer so cold.
"I have grown a lot taller, but even with this strength, I still haven't made much progress." The corner of the woman's mouth curved. …
"Sister Ninth, where have you been all these years?" Holy Spear Jiuying asked hurriedly.
To be honest, a large part of the reason why he became an adventurer was to find the whereabouts of his ninth sister.
When he was a child, Ninth Sister was the best to him, especially when he was being punished, she would secretly run over to comfort him.
"I went to the 'Magic Martial Arts Academy' to study for a while." Yuna answered very coquettishly.
"Ninth Sister, your suspicion back then was correct. It was the elders and others who wronged you." Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear said hurriedly.
Yuna glanced at the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear and said nothing.
"Ninth Sister, come back with me. Now the family has moved here." Holy Spear Nine Shadows said again.
"I won't go back!" Yuna said firmly.
"Ninth sister!"
"I am no longer a member of the Lewis family, so why should I go back?"
"Ninth Sister, now the family name has been changed to 'Trantes'. It turns out that our ancestors were dragon knights." Holy Spear Nine Shadows said hurriedly.
"Is it!"
Yuna's attitude was very calm, and she obviously didn't want to discuss this topic anymore.
"Sister Ninth, where do you live now?" Holy Spear Jiuying asked again.
"I have no fixed abode!" The smile in Yuna's eyes reached straight to her eyes, "You don't have to pry into my details. If I don't want to, you can't change anything even if you know where I live."
The cold wind is still blowing.
Jiuying of the Holy Spear stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar person in front of him. He felt that Sister Ninth had changed a lot over the years.
"Xiao Shisan, was it Xiao Qi who was with you just now?" Yuna asked
"Well, I'm patrolling with Seventh Brother." Holy Spear Jiuying answered truthfully. He felt sad for Ninth Sister's alienation.
"What are you patrolling?" Yuna asked again.
"We are looking for the exact location of 'Dragon Nest'."
"So you haven't found it yet?"
"No!" Holy Spear Nine Shadows asked, "Ninth Sister, what are you doing here?"
This mountain range is deserted, and even magical beasts are rarely seen. The people who appear here must have a purpose.
"Same as you!" Yuna said and looked away.
"Ninth Sister, are you also looking for Dragon Nest?" Holy Spear Jiuying was surprised.
"What, can't I look for it?" Yuna said as she started to look around.
The Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear remained there and stopped talking.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a sound broke through the air, caught in the cold wind, it was still as obvious as ever.
bump!
With a muffled sound, a spear was inserted into the stone ground.
Immediately afterwards, a heroic voice came over: "Let me see how much Xiaojiu has grown?"
Whoosh!
As he finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared between Yuna and the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear.
"Wood, I didn't expect you to be here too!" Yuna recognized the person at a glance. It was Wood, the fifth among the younger generation.
Like Yuna, they are both extremely talented people.
"Shouldn't you call me 'Fifth Brother'?" Wood grinned.
Yuna didn't speak!
Wood added: "Don't leave in a hurry when you come this time. Brother Wu will take you back to eat barbecue. It's freezing out here. It would be better if you pair it with strong wine."
"I'm not here to reminisce with you!" Yuna said with a serious face...
"Haha, it seems that Xiaojiu has quite a lot of resentment!"
"Just pretend you haven't seen me here!" Yuna said, preparing to leave.
"How can that be okay? If you see her, you will see her. Besides, if you don't go home, where are you going?" Wood dodged and blocked Yuna's way.
"Get out of the way!" Yuna said with a cold face.
"Old rule, whoever has a stronger fist will listen!" Wood stretched out his arm, and with a whoosh, the spear he nailed into the rock flew directly into his palm.
"It seems that you are very confident in your own strength!" Yuna narrowed her eyes, moved her wrist, and held a long sword in her hand.
Wood frowned and asked, "Xiaojiu, where is your spear?"
The signature weapon of their family is the spear, and Yuna is no exception.
But who would have thought that Yuna would give up her spear.
"Still the same nonsense as before!" Yuna did not answer, but stabbed straight at him with her sword.
Wood waved his gun to block, and the two fought together.
On the top of the mountain, fighting spirit surges.
The collision between the sword and the spear actually tore apart the biting cold wind, causing the snow on the ground to become like rising sand and dust, covering the sky and blocking out the sun.
The Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear who were watching could not see clearly the two people in the battle. He could only estimate the situation of the battle based on the fluctuations of fighting spirit at the scene.
"Dragon Style: Flowing Fire!"
Wood's fighting spirit spurted out, and in an instant, countless fireballs appeared out of thin air in mid-air.
boom!
Boom!
This no longer feels like a sparring match, but more like fighting for the best.
Fireballs hit like hailstones, ravaging the clearing.
"Fifth brother!"
Holy Spear Jiuying knew his fifth brother's temperament, so he made a move, neither lightly nor seriously, and was about to give a few words of advice.
At this moment, the atmosphere in the scene suddenly stagnated.
As the snowflakes were blown away by the wind, the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear finally saw clearly the situation inside the venue.
His ninth sister, Yuna, held her long sword flat and placed it on Wood's neck.
At this moment, Wood had a horrified expression and was staring at Yuna with disbelief.
The Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear were also shocked by this scene.
He originally thought that if these two tigers fought, one of them would be injured. As they were both extremely talented people, this battle would be difficult to end, but he did not expect that the battle ended so quickly.
Buzz!
Yuna shook the sword, and the long sword was sheathed directly.
"How is it possible, Yuna, how could you become so strong?" Wood couldn't accept this fact.
The mind is still recalling the shocking sword strike just now!
That sword not only destroyed his fighting skills, but also directly sealed the victory.
"The Lewis family in the past deceived themselves too much. Little did they know that this continent is huge and has countless talented people." Yuna answered the question.
At this moment, Yuna looked so strange in their eyes.
Just when the atmosphere was getting colder, the biting cold wind suddenly disappeared.
This is a very abnormal phenomenon. You must know that this place is nearly a thousand meters above sea level and the wind is constantly blowing.
“I didn’t expect there was an unexpected harvest!”
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from above the heads of the three people.
The three of them were all startled. They raised their heads suddenly and found that two figures appeared in the sky at some unknown time. …
Yuna's brows suddenly frowned. With her current strength, she didn't even notice how the other party came.
"It's you!" Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear blurted out.
He recognized Lin Xi above him at a glance.
Yes, the people suspended above their heads were Lin Xi and Lan Duo who had come here.
In order to completely end the "end of the gods", Lin Xi rushed here immediately after receiving the information provided by the puppet.
In the next ten days, the gods will gather here in large numbers, with the purpose of finding the sealed "ancient dragon".
Because this mission is extremely difficult, the palace master hiding behind the scenes is very likely to appear.
In order to catch all these people in one fell swoop, Lin Xi had to first understand the terrain and then make arrangements.
This time, Lin Xi only brought Lan Duo with him. After all, Lan Duo knew about the "Dragon Valley".
Whoosh!
Lin Xi and Lan Duo fell to the ground.
The reason why there is no cold wind in this area is because it is surrounded by a barrier.
"The battle just now was exciting!" Lin Xi said with a smile.
Yuna and Wood both frowned at the same time.
In other words, when they were sparring, the other party was already around, but they didn't even notice it.
Lin Xi's eyes first glanced at the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear, then looked at Wood who was holding the spear tightly, and finally stopped at Yuna.
"The Gods are at the end of the rock, and they are still a full member!"
As soon as Lin Xi said this, Yuna on the opposite side suddenly pulled out her long sword.
"Ninth sister!"
The Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear were shocked.
He knew that Lin Xi was powerful, and he didn't want to see his ninth sister being abused because of her impulse.
"Who are you?" Yuna stared at Lin Xi warily.
"It seems that the information within your organization is not very well-informed. You don't even know who I am!" Lin Xi smiled faintly.
"Ninth Sister, this is 'Your Excellency Lin Xi'. It was him who made my family aware of the truth. He is a very powerful person!" Holy Spear Nine Shadows hurriedly interrupted.
He had never spoken faster in his life than at this moment.
Wood on the side also interjected, but his point was exactly what Lin Xi just said.
"The End of the Gods? What is that? Xiaojiu, do you have something to hide?" Wood stared at Yuna opposite.
He noticed that after hearing the words "The End of the Gods", Yuna's behavior was obviously abnormal.
"So, since you don't know anything about it, we can exclude you." Lin Xi said with a smile.
"Your Excellency Lin Xi, what is going on?" After all, Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear had interacted with Lin Xi many times, so he did not mince words at this moment and asked directly.
"The End of the Gods is an evil organization that kills people and sells goods, and commits all kinds of evil. Looking at history, many countries have been destroyed because of this organization." Lin Xi introduced with a smile.
"Your Excellency Lin Xi, are you mistaken? This is my ninth sister, she..."
Lin Xi interrupted the words behind the Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear: "Every member of 'The End of the Gods' will wear a contract ring, and the color of the ring can be used to distinguish the status within the organization."
The Nine Shadows of the Holy Spear and Wood quickly looked at Yuna's palm.
Yuna's hands were wearing white silk gloves, and it was unclear what kind of ring she was wearing.
This is a bit abnormal. Generally speaking, if you wear gloves, you will put the ring on the outside of the gloves.
As for Yuna's hands, they were obviously gloves wrapped with rings.
"Yuna!"
Wood raised his voice and his expression became serious.
He wanted Yuna to explain, but Yuna was surprisingly quiet.
"I have seen the members of 'The End of the Gods' and I won't let them go. Are you going to surrender on your own initiative, or are you going to let me take action?"
Lin Xi always kept a smile, as if discussing trivial matters with others.
stop!
Yuna suddenly moved. She fired a sword energy at Lin Xi, and then used the reaction force to prepare to escape from the other direction.
"I'm really afraid that you'd surrender voluntarily, that would be boring!"
Lin Xi's voice sounded again, and as for the sword energy that came towards him, it was dispersed by an invisible energy before it even got close.
