It was an hour ago.
Since Blood Feather fled, the evil sparrows in the imperial city also went away. A lot of ordinary birds finally flew out of their nests in fear and came to this familiar and yet ruined city.
A sparrow with grey-brown feathers and short tail feathers landed in an unimpressive yard.
A large part of the yard wall had collapsed. Among the broken stones, some smell of blood was still left, but the lamplight in the room was quite stable. The faintly yellow glow coming through the window paper was just like the sky before dusk or the rogue that a young girl applied to her face lightly.
The sparrow stared at the room with its black eyes. It liked the color, which could bring an air of peace as if this city hadn’t been rampaged by the evil sparrow.
All of a sudden, the sparrow raised its head agilely and looked under the clouds. In the night sky that just cleared up, the dark clouds were getting lighter. Ye
Everything was in an incredibly wonderful status. Even the figure of Ning Changjiu pointing out his finger seemed still.Ning Xiaoling also fell into the weird silence. She knew the silence was false. Ning Changjiu was not still. The finger that contained the intendment of Taoism was still coming for her constantly.The evil power of the young girl that looked like a white fox surged again. She struck punches fiercely in all directions. The punches were so fast that a series of lingering ghosts were created to surround her as protection.She couldn’t confirm where Ning Changjiu came from, so she could only adopt this energy-exhausting method. Yet, she didn’t mind at all, because she knew that Ning Changjiu’s current realm couldn’t maintain the formation for too long.On the ground, the golden threads formed by the formation suddenly rose like mountains. Just like the water, the golden threads submerged her feet bit by bit and then
The wind whistled across the ears.For the moment, Ning Xiaoling just plunged downward rapidly for being unable to resist the power.While plunging, Ning Xiaoling tried her best to keep her balance and slashed downward at the top of his head.Ning Changjiu suddenly released the strength to take a swipe at the young girl as if hammering. Ning Xiaoling spun herself, making the slash miss the target. The scarlet sword Qi hit the attic, the beams all crashed and the tall building just collapsed towards where they were.Ning Changjiu released his hand and quickly moved back to avoid the collapsing attic. Meanwhile, Ning Xiaoling’s ankles were twined by the annoying threads. The threads connected to the ground fixed her body firmly.The tall building quickly fell, casting a huge shadow over her petite body, causing a loud crashing sound. The girl cried somewhat in pain. The foxtails behind her were swinging like a tornado. H
The attic collapsed and the long street was ruined. The bricks and rubble had weathered badly over the past century and finally turned into debris today.The two white figures rushed through the sweeping dust, one charging forward and attacking while the other retreating and avoiding. As such, the night was full of explosive sounds with broken stones scattered about in midair.Ning Changjiu’s white clothes were ragged and dusty. His spiritual power had been greatly exhausted, which could hardly keep up with his moving speed. Finally, amidst a crack, Ning Xiaoling’s punch hit his back.As his bones were fractured, Ning Changjiu let out a painful groan and slumped on the ground. Instantly, he rolled over and dodged another punch that followed hard on the heels of the previous punch.Ning Xiaoling didn’t give him a chance to breathe. The moment her punch touched the ground, she spread the palm, pressed against the ground to hold herse
When one broke through the realm of Long Life and reached the realm of Purple Court, there would be two tribulations. One was the inner demon tribulation and the other was the thunderbolt tribulation. When the inner demon tribulation was broken, the disappearance of the demonic nature would trigger the thunderbolt and the thunderbolt tribulation would arrive thereafter.The previous realm of Zhao Xiang’er was borrowed so no thunderbolt tribulation was triggered.Now, Ning Xiaoling was about to reach the realm of Purple Court as a new life. As Ning Changjiu helped her break through the bottleneck, the tribulation just followed.Now, it was because she was trapped in the inner demon tribulation that Ning Xiaoling was standing in situ still.Her body started to be wrapped up by the white silk formed by the spiritual power. Every streak of spiritual silk was clearly seen and extremely resilient, which ordinary swords couldn’t cut off.
In the darkness, the whole imperial city appeared extremely silent.The shocking incident happening in the long street before only caused a sensation on a small scale, which didn’t affect a large area. Many people were still immersed in the joy of surviving the calamity. The corpses outside the imperial preceptor’s mansion had been cleanly dealt with. The assassins on the list of the state of Jin were either dead or injured. It could be imagined that the assassination organization of the state of Jin would have the succession problem for a long time from now on.The imperial city was very big. The surrounding inkstone mountains were towering and foursquare, just like a huge palm holding up the ancient city.Thanks to the continuous chaos caused by the war, even in the imperial city, quite some people secretly migrated to the other states, leaving a lot of mansions empty. According to the folk legend, once the mansion was abandoned, the antique
The sedan came from the grey mist. So did the joy and laughter.As the cold wind billowed the curtain, Ning Changjiu just didn’t turn his gaze away. The face was quite childish and the girl looked like a 7-year-old or 8-year-old. However, young as she was, she still put on a light makeup with a bit of red eye shadow applied to the corners of her eyes and three spot marks between the eyebrows, which seemed like the stamen in spring.The sedan curtain dropped quickly. Ning Changjiu stared at the sedan going away and furrowed his brows.That was Ning Xiaoling.The elegance between her eyebrows was not Ning Xiaoling; the delicate makeup on the face was not Ning Xiaoling, and the luxurious clothes embroidered with the pattern of dancing phoenix were not Ning Xiaoling.However, he was sure that the girl was Ning Xiaoling.He followed the sedan then.The sedan was heading towards another mansion, whi
The little girl’s tears froze on her face. She raised her head and put on a cold look.“I’m not your fellow disciple,” Ning Xiaoling stormed. “Get the new clothes back to me!”Ning Changjiu said, “Come back with me and I will give you the new ones.”Ning Xiaoling shrugged his hands off her wrists, saying, “You liar! Scholars are all liars...”Then, she struck a heavy punch at Ning Changjiu’s chest, sending him flying away. He was thrown on the snowfield. With a whoosh, the snowflakes sprinkled around and his body sank in the snow.Ning Changjiu got himself out of the snow. He was somewhat delighted rather than angry.Ning Xiaoling was shocked instead. Looking at her hand, she was astounded by her strength. For the moment, she was at a loss.She stared at the young man in white and opened her mouth, trying to speak something but still holding her tongue.Now, a child’s voice sudden
In the extreme darkness, the light shone in bit by bit.That was the slightly flickering candlelight.The light orange halo around the candlelight faded away like faint mist, enveloping the ordinary room. The room was made of wood and the dark brown wooden frame was somewhat old. The spider nets hung in the house were well cleaned. The dishes on the table were covered by the bamboo-made cover. A little girl who was seven or eight years old was leaning over the table, swinging her legs and discontentedly watching a boy sitting on the threshold and eating the fruit.Ning Changjiu immediately recognized that the boy was her younger brother.Whipping the bamboo mat by the door, her mother was talking to her brother while he was listening absent-mindedly.Her father was slashing the firewood. He looked quite strong without any old appearance.The family was not rich but supposedly, they lived a good life in the
