This is a stone room that is less than five meters square. There is nothing else in the room except a simple wooden bed. At this moment, a young man is quietly staying in it, with his eyes closed, cross-legged on the ground, and there is a hint of fighting spirit on his body.
The coercion flows, and it is obvious that he is in a state of cultivation.
squeak~aa~
The door of the stone chamber opened in response. The young man opened his eyes alertly and was about to stand up. However, when he saw the visitor, he stared indifferently for a moment, then closed his eyes again and returned to his original posture of sitting cross-legged.
"It's me, here to see you again." Lani said softly, walked slowly to the young man, and sat down too.
"It's been about twenty days since I last came here. How have you... been?"
The young man didn't answer.
"I just heard that the Phoenix Flower Festival will be held in two days. It seems to be the biggest celebration in the empire. If possible... I really want to walk out of here with you and participate in this nationwide joyful ceremony." The young man
There was still no reaction at all. Lani whispered as if talking to herself: "I remember when we were young, our favorite thing was the joyous festivals. At that time, I always dragged you around, especially to crowded places.
It's just that... now, for us, these are all unattainable extravagances..."
The airtight stone room was filled with deathly silence. Wei Lanni's whispers echoed in the space. The subtle sunlight shone in from the ventilation holes as big as a fist. The dim, dark and humid indoor space was filled with an indescribable vicissitude, like
The setting sun at the end of the twilight is just like Lanny's mood at the moment.
Looking at the face of the young man in front of her, with his ink-like black hair and his thin and cold face, Lani felt sad for no reason. She stood up and got close to him, leaning on the man's tall body and sitting down.
The close contact, the carefree attitude of the little bird, and the familiar warmth beside him.
The woman's intimate behavior aroused the young man's displeasure. He frowned and was about to push away, but Lanie held her tightly. He only heard her softly pleading: "Just one moment, that's it."
Let me be a little more willful, please..."
The young man hesitated for a while after hearing this, then slowly lowered his hand that was about to push away, and let her go.
"I still remember that in those days, you and I always played together. My biggest wish at that time was that when we grow up, we can go out of Aida Town together, play all over the mainland together, see all the beautiful places in the world together, live and play until we grow old, it was a sweet dream at the time
, recalling it now, it’s still sweet, but it’s hard to achieve it anymore... Watching my former companions die one by one, I can only live a life of humiliation and compromise, I really feel, so tired, so tired...
"Today is the last time I come to see you... Ebbado used Tim and the others to threaten me, so how can I do what he wants?" At this point, Lani suddenly clenched the pendant around her neck tightly, resolutely
Said: "Over the years, I have been carrying this drop of poisonous blood with me, and I dare not leave my body for a moment. The evening banquet is when it comes in handy. At that time, I will feed myself with poison and die together with Ebbado!"
"
Lani has already made up her mind to die. It turns out that this is the moment she has been waiting for for so many years!
Holding the young man's arm and looking at his still indifferent expression, Lanni choked and said: "As soon as I leave, I will go into the water with Tobado, and the members of the Qinglei League will definitely take it out on you, but they said they want to kill you."
No, no matter what, I hope you can survive their revenge... On this day, although it is unfair and unfair, I believe there are still miracles. Maybe there will be one day, one moment, you can completely
Reply back...
"Live well, Hank, and live together with me... This is my last wish for you!"
Lanny had already burst into tears and was about to stand up and leave, but was firmly grasped by Hank's sudden extended hand. She was startled, stunned, and said in a trembling voice: "Hank, you...
Do you...understand what I'm saying?"
Hank was silent and stood up suddenly, staring ahead. Lanny followed her in confusion and saw the door of the stone chamber suddenly opened. Under the dazzling sunlight, a black-haired boy he had never seen before strode in.
.
With the light behind him, the long shadow is like a majestic stone statue that has existed for eternity. The dark shadow hidden in the sun is scary and powerful. This is also Lanny's first view of Yi Yun after many years of separation.
An impression──
A deep-seated, unforgettable impression. On this day, at this moment, she finally expected a miracle...
A bloody miracle!
The door opened and then closed, and with a flick of his hands, two strong men were thrown to the ground. They turned out to be the two elite soldiers who had been guarding the door just now.
"You...who are you?" Lanny yelled in horror.
Unexpectedly, the visitor did not answer, nor did he immediately attack. He could only see his body trembling violently, staring at the two of them with an extremely excited expression: "Hank... you are really
Is that Hank?"
"You...who are you?" Lanny stood in front of Hank in panic, looking at the two struggling figures underground with great horror. She saw that all their limbs were twisted, including their jaw bones.
She was also completely crushed, and could no longer speak. She could only roll and howl on the ground, like a struggling and squirming dying insect. The brutality of the attack made her feel frightened.
This stone chamber is the first-level garrison of Qinglei Station. Those who are qualified to be sent to guard this place are all elite members of the Qinglei Sanctioning Group. Their cultivation level is at least five-star or above, and the man in front of him seems to be old.
It was unbelievable that a boy who was only one or two years older than him could silently and severely injure these two elite warriors with such cruel methods.
"Black hair and black eyes, are you really Hank?! I'm brother Yi Yun!" Yi Yun couldn't hide the ecstasy in his heart. Just as he was about to run towards him, he saw Hank pick up the sword dropped by the underground guard and pull Lanny with him.
He retreated to the corner and faced him with extreme vigilance.
"Hank you...?"
"That's not right!" He had already announced his identity, but the other party still raised his sword at him with a wary expression. Yi Yun was stunned, and was about to ask when he heard Munro's voice in his mind: "The situation is not quite right...
.He is a five-star level martial arts madman, and has already reached the five-star intermediate level. If it were Hank, with his qualifications, it would never be possible for him to reach this level!"
"But... Before entering the door just now, Lanie did call him Hank, it must be true!"
"...But he doesn't recognize you at all. It's as if he has never heard of the name Yi Yun. If it is really him, is it possible? It is not difficult to completely confirm his identity.
It's also the easiest way... attack him directly!" Monroe said in a deep voice.
"What, attacking Hank? Boss, are you crazy?"
"What an idiot!" Monroe scolded angrily: "You personally taught Hank the skills back then. If you force him to take action, wouldn't you be able to find the answer?"
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that!" Yi Yun suddenly became enlightened after hearing this.
At this time, there was a man and a woman in front of him. The young man was still extremely vigilant and raised his sword to confront him. He completely regarded himself as an enemy, but Lani had a blank look on her face and stared at him in a daze.
Yi Yun hesitated for a moment, then sprinted out and punched the young man in the face.
A fierce blow, 30% strength, 20% fist strength, but extremely fast. Just when the fist was about to hit his face, the young man finally reacted and quickly raised his sword to strike back, but he struck back at an even faster speed.
A half-moon-shaped sword light was slashed out, with fiery red fighting spirit and rising temperature, it quickly slashed towards Yi Yun's waist.
Counterattack with all your strength, completely ignoring the domineering punch that is about to hit your head. This is a strategy of risking life and death together!
Yi Yun completely ignored the young man's desperate offensive of exchanging lives for lives. There was only one thing he really cared about──
"This aura, this fighting spirit... The Purple Flame of Burning Tribulation, really the Purple Flame of Burning Tribulation!" Yi Yun and Menluo exclaimed at the same time.
Back then, Hank was still too young, so Yi Yun only taught him some entry-level Burning Tribulation Purple Flame technique. Now, the fiery red sword light displayed by the young man is more than powerful, but the strength and flame temperature are insufficient.
It can only be said that the Burning Tribulation Purple Flame Cultivation Technique is specious. It only has its shape but not its essence. It seems to be the same as the ordinary fire attribute fighting qi technique. However, in the eyes of Yi Yun and Men Luo, it is an ironclad proof.
It is enough to prove the young man's identity.
Apart from him, the only remaining bloodline of the Start family, and the relative that Yi Yun had longed for these past eight years, was finally found today - Hank!
The fist was retracted in the air, and Yi Yun did not dodge or dodge. He waved forward lightly with one hand, and the entire flaming red sword light instantly disintegrated. The powerful attack was broken with a snap of his finger, and it failed to hurt him at all.
"Ah! How could that happen?" The two sides exchanged punches and swords for just a moment. However, the difference between strength and weakness was so huge that Lanny couldn't believe it and exclaimed in horror.
Yi Yun, on the other hand, was so ecstatic that he couldn't hold back his joy. He stepped forward and grabbed Hank's shoulders tightly. His tears flowed down uncontrollably: "Hank, you are really Hank, I finally found you!"
"Boom!"
Just as he was surprised, a huge force hit him. Yi Yun suddenly felt a pain in his waist and abdomen. With a look of shock and confusion, his whole body was pushed back.
"Hank you..." A hot burning pain came from his waist, and the unique Burning Flame Fist strength of Fenjie Ziyan was still burning, and Yi Yun was stunned on the spot.
"Injure me...the member of the Blue Thunder...the enemy!" Hank's face was expressionless, and the fiery red fighting energy flowed around his body, and he raised his sword and struck again.
"Hank... I am brother Yi Yun, the brother who secretly taught you the fighting qi skills!" Yi Yun was simply stunned.
Hank had no reaction at all to what he said. He slashed and stabbed him with all his sword. He showed an unending fighting attitude and cold and cold killing intent. They were all aimed at him, and he was stronger than his opponent.
His strength was useless, and he could only dodge the sword strikes in a panic.
Yi Yun couldn't turn his head at this moment and just dodged blankly, completely falling into a passive situation of being beaten. Hank pressed forward step by step, slashing at his vital points with all his swords. In an instant, Yi Yun
Already forced into a blind corner in the room, with no way out, at this moment──
With a sound of "Huh!", the whole stone chamber shook slightly, and two large holes several meters wide suddenly broke through the stone wall on the ceiling. At the same time, two figures suddenly appeared in the room, blocking Yi Yun's front and Han Han.
In front of the body.
Two strange and powerful men suddenly descended from the sky. Their fierce pressure was like the aura of true domination. The whole space seemed to be inexplicably oscillating, and it was trembling violently like a tide.
"Why are you here too?" It was Kalus and Axey.
These two people had previously stated that they would not get involved in this matter, but now they suddenly appeared here at the same time, and Yi Yun himself was shocked.
Hank immediately judged that he was by no means the enemy of the two of them. The domineering power exuded from the coming person was as boundless as the vast ocean, which deeply shocked his whole heart and soul. His body trembled violently and he couldn't help but
The fear of words suddenly surged into my heart. This is the sensitivity that every warrior possesses. The fear of a strong person who reaches the star realm seems to be natural.
But unexpectedly, he didn't take advantage of the opportunity to escape. Instead, he retreated to a corner deep in the room and guarded Lani closely.
"Weird, such a reaction? It's beyond my expectation! If my prediction is correct, he shouldn't know that woman..." Akxi looked puzzled.
, waving forward with one hand, Hank's whole body felt as if he was struck by lightning, and seemed to be dragged into the air by an invisible force. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free, and could only watch himself facing the terrifying strong man in black robes.
The one drifted past.
"Senior Akxi, please show mercy!" Seeing Hank being manipulated like a lamb to be slaughtered, Yi Yun became anxious and begged for mercy.
"Alas, no matter how high Kalus thinks of you, you are still not qualified in my eyes. You are just like my bastard student. You are stupid!" Shaking his head, Axey sighed: "Move your pig head."
Well, if I really want to be detrimental to him, will I allow you any room to interfere? Furthermore, like you, he may be of the Stater bloodline. After being an old friend of Kalus, I will not care about emotion or reason.
It may be harsh, but your concern will make you chaotic. Just calm down!"
"Then...then...what are you now?" Kalus once said unintentionally that Akxi's hands were full of blood and killing people was as easy as drinking water. Yi Yun had always harbored feelings for him.
Very wary.
"I just want to observe him well, kid, you'd better shut up!" Akxi said impatiently.
Akxi spoke carelessly, but Lannie heard everything. She was stunned, then approached cautiously, with a pair of pretty eyes mixed with surprise and doubt, and asked in a trembling voice: "You...you...
Is this really Yi Yun...the brother Yi Yun who works with Hank's father and Uncle Baddeley all day long?"
"...Lani, Uncle Hasu's only daughter, I heard clearly the two conversations just now. You have suffered a lot over the years!" He reached out and stroked the girl's golden hair. In his eyes,
, She is still the lively and bouncing girl with two braids, and this intimate behavior is the same as before, Yi Yun responded warmly.
"You...you're not dead...you're really alive and here...it's so good, so good!" When Lan heard the black-haired boy calling out his father's name, Lan
Ni had no doubts at this time and hugged Yi Yun tightly and cried loudly.
Hugging Yi Yun tightly, Lanni burst into tears. She could not hold herself back any longer. Her actions showing her true feelings once again showed that she had not been comfortable living alone all these years.
"Don't cry first, tell me first what happened to Hank? How could he... act like he doesn't know me at all?" Yi Yun asked anxiously.
Lani wiped away her tears, but she still couldn't bear to let go of her clasped hands. At this moment, Yi Yun's existence seemed to her like driftwood in the sea, a miracle that could only appear in dreams. She hugged her tightly and held her intermittently.
Said: "Hank...he and other friends in Aida Town were hit by something called..."
"It's true!" Before Lanni could finish her words, Akxi's voice sounded first: "This young man has been poisoned by a forbidden poison called Lihun Evil Brew!
