On the big ship, General Chen Liu looked solemn. He stood on the deck and looked into the distance. He said solemnly: "If I return to the royal city this time, I will be convicted of dereliction of duty and die. My parents, wife and children will be entrusted to you.
, I hope you can take them away from the royal city and find a remote place where they can spend the rest of their lives safely."
Ning Changqiang nodded heavily and said, "Don't worry, I promise to take them to a safe place."
"Thank you very much."
General Chen Liu took a long breath and felt relieved after receiving Ning Changqiang's assurance.
However, the atmosphere was still very depressing.
Lin Qi couldn't help but said: "Why should you be convicted of dereliction of duty? Everything that happened along the way was accidental, and Ling Yingjun was brought out by Chen Tianjiao. Logically speaking, it is Chen Tianjiao's problem. The three princesses can all testify."
General Chen Liu glanced at Lin Qi, laughed, and said: "Everyone understands the truth, but what we, the Great Zhou, look at is not the process, but the result."
"It has been almost half a year since the end of the Qianlong List. It has been too long!"
"If things go by now, not only will I be convicted of dereliction of duty, but all of you will be convicted of rebellion. You will be wanted for the rest of your life and live a life on the run."
"That is to say, this year's Hidden Dragon List includes Chen Tianjiao and the third princess, as well as the children of various powerful people. That's why the royal city has not issued a wanted order."
"But when we arrived in the royal city, the bigwigs found out that all their geniuses were dead, but you and Qingxuan, two little people, were left alive. There will still be various imposed charges waiting for you."
General Chen Liu said, looking at Qingxuan with sympathetic eyes, and said: "But Lin Qi is protected by the Sky Eagle Army represented by Lao Ning, and Miss Qingxuan is not so lucky."
Qingxuan's face changed slightly, knowing that General Chen Liu was not an alarmist.
There are ten people on the Qianlong List. Except for her and Lin Qi, who are little people from the remote north, the other eight are all the geniuses of the royal city. Now that the six geniuses of the royal city are dead, two of them are still alive. How can we not make people jealous and resentful, even
I feel like the two of them are disaster stars.
And those people did not dare to vent their anger on Chen Tianjiao and the third princess, so they would inevitably vent their anger on her and Lin Qi.
As Chen Liu said, Lin Qi is also valued by the Sky Eagle King. There is an amulet that ranks first on the Hidden Dragon List. No matter how the fire burns, he must pay attention to the impact, so as not to burn Lin Qi to death.
But what about her Qingxuan?
There is no backstage, and she is only tenth on the Qianlong list. It is the best to use her to vent his anger!
It's like she came to the door to attract firepower and let everyone kill her!
Seeing Qingxuan's face getting paler, Lin Qi patted her back gently and said comfortingly: "It doesn't matter, at worst you just don't enter the royal city."
"But Chen Tianjiao knows that I am still alive. If I don't enter the royal city, he will definitely label me as a rebel and then want me! Moreover, General Chen Liu, as the leading general, knew that I was still alive, but let me leave on my own. The crime
Even bigger, there might have been a chance to avoid being sentenced to death, but in this case, he will definitely die."
Qingxuan said with a worried look.
Hearing that Qingxuan was still worried about him, General Chen Liu couldn't help but feel touched. His eyes when he looked at Qingxuan became softer and he said: "Actually, it doesn't matter to me. I will definitely die. It's impossible."
Turnaround."
"But as Brother Lynch said, Miss Qingxuan can survive. As long as Miss Qingxuan leaves midway and everyone testifies that another accident happened and Miss Qingxuan died, that's fine."
"Anyway, so many people have died along the way. If one or two more people die, I will bear the blame. I don't have to worry about the debt. How can I chop my head off twice?"
"Even if Chen Tianjiao would express doubts about this statement, he would even instigate his father to issue a wanted order."
"But as long as Miss Qingxuan disguises herself and hides in a remote place, who will be able to find her when the wanted order comes out?"
When General Chen Liu said this, he looked at Zhou Jiangxue and said: "The only question now is whether everyone is willing to help Miss Qingxuan testify. Especially the attitude of the third princess is very important!"
"I do."
Zhou Jiangxue said without hesitation.
Ning Changqiang and Wei Changsheng were on Lin Qi's side, so of course they were obliged to do so.
Chen Liu smiled and said, "Since everyone agrees, then Miss Qingxuan is safe."
"But is this really the only way?"
Qingxuan looked at everyone and felt that everyone had perjured themselves just for her. If they were discovered, their lives would be at stake.
Chen Liudao: "Yes, this is the only way. The Royal City is no better than other places. There are rich and powerful people everywhere. If you meet someone on the road, you might get into trouble. You and Lin Qi are a thorn in the side now. Apart from leaving,
, there is no other way.”
"So Lynch, shall we go together?"
Qingxuan looked at Lin Qi expectantly.
As long as Lin Qi walks with her, she will not be afraid no matter where she goes, to the end of the world.
Lin Qi shook his head and said seriously: "I can't leave. Firstly, I still have things to do, and I must enter the royal city. Secondly, if I leave, Chen Tianjiao will find no one to vent his anger on and beat us both to death.
If we are rebels, then the sect and relatives behind us will be bloodbathed!"
"Brother Lynch is right. But Miss Qingxuan, don't worry. Brother Lynch has the Sky Eagle King behind him, so nothing will happen to him."
General Chen Liu comforted him.
Qingxuan bit her lip silently and said, "Okay. Should I leave now?"
Lin Qi said: "Why don't you wait until we get to the royal city soon? I'll ask Mr. Wei to go with you, and take away General Chen Liu's family members as well..."
"no!"
Chen Liu immediately interrupted Lin Qi's words and said: "My family members must not leave early, otherwise the crime will be bigger than the sky, and no one can protect them. Only after I plead guilty and be executed can they have a way to live. Otherwise, they will have a way to live."
In addition, Miss Qingxuan must leave immediately. If Chen Tianjiao and others catch up soon, she will not be able to leave even if she wants to!"
Lin Qi's expression changed, knowing that General Chen Liu was right, so he stepped forward and took Qingxuan's hand.
Then, he slipped a jade slip into her hand and said: "This is the map of the Daqing Dynasty. If you are really desperate, you can go to the border of the Daqing Dynasty to find the border guard general Luo Qinghao and give this jade slip to her."
He, just say that Ye Master Zhulong asked you to come, and he will arrange it for you properly. Do you understand?"
"I understand. But what will you do if you give me this thing?"
Qingxuan said with a worried look.
Lin Qi smiled casually: "I am the most talented person in the Zhou Dynasty, how could something happen? Don't worry, I still have treasures, and I won't die so easily."
"But, you - you must take care of yourself!"
Qingxuan hugged Lin Qi tightly, tears streaming down her face, her eyes showing the pain of separation.
When everyone saw it, they were all silent!
Obviously the two of them were among the top ten geniuses on the Hidden Dragon Ranking, and they should have entered the royal city to receive awards, but now they felt like they were mourning for their heirs, and they had to flee in a hurry.
What went wrong in this?
The third princess, Zhou Jiangxue, had a complex expression.
As a princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, she watched the Great Zhou Tianjiao leave the Royal City with her own eyes, and even wanted to be a member to help them escape. It was as if the Royal City was some kind of hell. How sad is this?
The capital of a dynasty was so frightening that the people did not dare to set foot there.
Doesn't this make people feel hopeless?
No wonder Ling Yingjun mocked them that the traitorous ministers in the Great Zhou Dynasty were in power, the building was about to collapse, and the sun was declining. Today's scene was probably a bad sign.
"Old Wei, please help me take care of Qingxuan. When we meet someday, I will repay this favor!"
Lynch solemnly entrusts you.
Wei Changsheng smiled slightly and said: "Master, you are the most outstanding genius I have ever seen in the world. I firmly believe that you will stand at the top of the entire Lingwu Domain in the future. At that time, as long as you can still remember me, Wei Changsheng, Feng
I, Wei Changsheng, am satisfied with just being a minor official! As for the rest, needless to say, old man, I promise to protect Miss Qingxuan to the death!"
"Okay! One day when I stand on the top of the Lingwu Domain, I will make you a protector and remember your contribution in protecting Qingxuan."
Lin Qi suddenly became bold and unambiguous, making a promise directly.
With that said, the two of them rose up against the wind and fled far away.
"Let's speed up too. Lao Ning, help me."
Chen Liu said.
Ning Changqiang immediately stepped forward, and together they poured the spiritual power of the Lingwu Realm into the big ship.
boom!
The speed of the big ship increased rapidly, and it traveled a thousand miles in the blink of an eye.
At this time, apart from Ning Changqiang and Chen Liu, only Lin Qi and Zhou Jiangxue were left on the ship.
"Lynch."
Zhou Jiangxue called in a low voice, then looked seriously into Lin Qi's eyes and said, "Believe me, I will definitely protect you!"
Lin Qi smiled slightly when he heard this, nodded heavily and said, "Thank you."
Next, the two of them were silent.
Lin Qi sat down cross-legged, continued to study the secrets of the exercises, deduced the supreme Taoist method, and took advantage of the situation to break through the realm.
And before he knew it, he had broken through to the sixth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, and was only one step away from breaking through to the later seventh level.
"arrive!"
As soon as Chen Liu finished speaking, he saw a large ship landing in front of the city gate. He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "Either it is the son of the prime minister who set off after us, but arrived earlier than us."
"Chen Liu!"
Below, Chen Tianjiao also saw Chen Liu's unoccupied ship landing, his eyes immediately shot out a malicious light, and he said coldly: "You still dare to return to the royal city, knowing what will greet you?"
Chen Liu said calmly: "Of course I know."
Chen Tianjiao smiled ferociously: "Very good, it seems that you have come to your senses. But, do you think you are just going to hell alone? Haha, you are so naive. Tell you, I will reunite your whole family!"
"you!"
Chen Liu's expression suddenly changed, and he clenched his fists tightly, wishing to punch Chen Tianjiao to death.
But, he didn't dare.
Not only do I dare not, but I also cannot do it.
Because besides Chen Tianjiao's paid guard Ma Xiaotian, there are also three Lingwu Realm kings, and each of them is no weaker than himself.
Now, it's not a matter of him wanting to kill Chen Tianjiao, but if Chen Tianjiao wants to kill him, he can immediately let three people surround him and kill him!
Fortunately, we have arrived at the Royal City now. No matter how arrogant Chen Tianjiao is, he does not dare to cause a fight in front of the Royal City gate.
"Lynch!"
Chen Tianjiao suddenly turned his head, no longer paying attention to Chen Liu, but looked at Lin Qi, and said coldly: "Your death has come, if you kneel down and beg for mercy, and accept me as your master through the soul contract, I will spare your life.
"
"well."
Lin Qi let out a long sigh and made no answer.
Chen Tianjiao felt that he had been humiliated and was about to get angry when he suddenly noticed that there were two people missing behind Lin Qi. He immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Where are your woman Qingxuan and lackey Wei Changsheng?"
"Haha, what does it have to do with you?" Lin Qi sneered.
Chen Tianjiao looked gloomy, but he also knew that he couldn't get the truth out of Lin Qi's mouth, so he looked at Zhou Jiangxue and said, "Xiaoxue, come here and tell me where Qingxuan and Wei Changsheng went?"
Zhou Jiangxue looked like she was remembering and said, "We encountered an accident on the road. Both Qingxuan and Wei Changsheng died."
"died?"
Chen Tianjiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something, and his eyes towards Zhou Jiangxue became extremely eerie.
This look made Zhou Jiangxue extremely frightened, and she couldn't help but hide behind Lin Qi.
"Hahaha!"
Chen Tianjiao suddenly burst out laughing and laughed maniacally: "Very good, very good. It seems that you were kidnapped by Lin Qi in the Grand Canyon and got mixed up with him. What a pair of losers, how dare you betray them?"
I. Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, do you know the price of betraying me?"
Zhou Jiangxue gritted her teeth and said, "I'm just telling the truth. Don't frame my innocence. Nothing happened between me and Lin Qi."
"It doesn't matter whether it happens or not, just wait for me."
As he spoke, Chen Tianjiao glanced coldly at Lin Qi, Chen Liu, Zhou Jiangxue and Ning Changqiang, and hummed: "Just wait, wait for me, I, Chen Tianjiao, will make your life worse than death! Let's go!"
Chen Tianjiao was furious, but his aura became extremely cold, as if he had crawled out of the Nine Nether Hell.
Even though he had already entered the royal city with Ma Xiaotian and the others, the look in his eyes just now was still like a brand that was deeply imprinted on the hearts of Lin Qi and others, making them unable to calm down for a long time.
"It seems that the attitude of the third princess has made Chen Tianjiao even more crazy."
Chen Liu let out a long sigh: "Let's go, let's go into the city too. The soldiers will come to block the water and cover up the soil. It's not a problem to pestle here."
"Yeah, let's go."
All four of them walked towards the royal city step by step with heavy hearts.
Zhou Jiangxue, Chen Liu and Ning Changqiang have all been to the Royal City and turned a blind eye to the splendor of the Royal City, so they are not surprised.
Although Lin Qi came to the Royal City for the first time, he was no longer in the mood to appreciate it. He just felt that the Royal City was not just a city, but equivalent to a small country.
Just one city wall stretches tens of millions of miles, so you can imagine how big this royal city must be!
Lin Qi suddenly had a feeling that this royal city was actually the real Zhou Dynasty, and all the territorial cities outside the royal city were just tributaries of the Zhou Dynasty.
For the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, he probably didn't think that the people outside were the subjects of the Zhou Dynasty, so he didn't care about their life or death. As long as someone dissatisfied him, he could label them as rebels at will and carry out various actions.
Wanted for execution!
In this way, we can understand the strict system of the Great Zhou Law on the geniuses of the Qianlong List.
It can also be understood why in their remote areas in the north, all the laws are so ridiculous. They all rely on the autonomy of the city owner and the autonomy of the sect.
Snapped!
When Lin Qi stepped through the gate of the royal city and set foot on the land inside the city, he felt a strong and extremely rich spiritual energy rushing towards his face. His whole body felt like he was bathing in a pool of spiritual essence, wandering freely in it!
Seeing that he was motionless, the supreme Taoist law began to circulate involuntarily, and the true energy in his body quickly began to be purified, and his realm rose with the tide.
Less than a moment!
Lin Qi's realm immediately broke through, reaching the seventh level of Yuan Dan realm!
"As expected of being the first genius, the Lynch brothers have such a solid foundation that it is unimaginable. It must be because they stayed in the True Yuan Realm for too long, which caused their realm to increase crazily after breaking through to the Yuan Dan Realm."
Chen Liu couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said, "Let's go to the Qianlong Pavilion. The spiritual energy there is more intense, and there is a special training room, which is prepared for you, the genius of the Qianlong List. I believe that Brother Lynch will definitely do it."
Break through to the Nascent Soul realm before the Emperor summons you!"
