long night walk

Chapter 526
……

……

It's night, and the ever-burning lanterns hang from the corners of the eaves and can be seen far away.

On the divine way of the Nightless Immortal City, the forces of various immortal sects who came one after another gradually entered the palace and took their seats, not daring to miss the hour at all.

After leaving the bamboo forest, Bai Lian met the real official Qingxuan sent to find him.

Standing beside Bai Lian, she led the way quietly, with a gentle and quiet appearance, and she was meticulously ironed in a lady's dress. Regarding Bai Lian's unexplained disappearance from the palace, she never asked any more questions out of curiosity.

Passing through the solemn Shinto, Bai Lian walked down the long steps to the main hall under her leadership.

This year's Xianling City Exam is different from previous years.

There was no martial arts competition, and there was no literary test, but a ghost mountain was opened inexplicably, and this young man became the last person to walk out of the world of the bronze gate, so there was a classic scene of the stele mausoleum being written .

The loss of the position of the city lord of Xianling City is really inexplicable.

But at this moment, those who are qualified to be seated on top of the main positions of all forces are all descendants of the immortals who have passed the catastrophe among their ancestors.

When Guishan opened the trial, these nobles never entered the Bronze Gate with their own personal risks. Although they had heard about all the things that happened there, they didn't know why he was able to guide everyone out of the danger.

It was just a moment of good luck for this kid. I remember that when the bronze door first opened, the female ghost Hong Ying and You Guilang were killed by the bronze sword on the door. When she was dying, the female ghost Hong Ying seemed to surrender Give that kid something.

Since then, people have secretly speculated that maybe it was because of this that he was able to see where the bronze door that ordinary people could not see was hidden in the world under the door.

Extraordinary good luck brought him an opportunity different from ordinary people.

Therefore, for the vast majority of people in the hall at this moment, this year's Xianling City Exam, it is considered that the empress is lazy for a while, and does not follow the rules at all, so the exam rules have become very simple, but it is simply a competition of luck. .

Therefore, when everyone saw the gate of the palace, the late new city lord looked over with doubts, curiosity, scrutiny, and jealousy, but it was not the sincere blessing and admiration that everyone was looking at.

Seeing that Bai Lian's footsteps stopped, the voice of the female officer who led the way beside him sounded softly: "My lord, the banquet is about to start, and you are at Lord Qingxuan's side."

Bai Lian raised his eyes and saw that the female official Sixi from Kunlun Mountain had already appeared on the stage in person.

She didn't sit down with all the guests, the curtain in front of the palace drew behind him, and the light from the glazed lamp on the candlestick fell on her beautiful face, illuminating his slender and moving eyebrows, with a dotted line between them. The golden flower tinsel shining in the light is extraordinarily enchanting.

She looked at Bai Lian calmly, without speaking.

But all the people in the venue reacted at this moment, and everyone in the venue shook their clothes and stood up.

Although Bai Lian said that he was a calm boy, he had never experienced such a grand occasion after all. Perhaps he had slept alone in the dark for too long, and he felt a little uncomfortable when he was exposed to the sight of so many people at once.

But he didn't say anything, he stepped up to the main seat that belonged to him, and sat down silently.

Qingxuan, who knew that he was entangled by the siren vine early in the morning, naturally prepared Su Jing's place beside him.

She watched Bai Lian take her seat, then stretched out her arms, her wide sleeves fluttering, and signaled everyone to take their seats again.

The banquet officially opened.

A female official in red came on stage and began to praise, and then music and dancing and other fun programs began to perform.

In the originally dull and depressing occasion, amidst the sound of singing and dancing, the sound of conversation and whispering gradually began to emerge.

Qingxuan, the female official who sat on the main seat with Bai Lian, looked slightly slanted, but saw Bai Lian sitting in front of the case, enjoying the singing and dancing quietly.

He didn't touch his chopsticks, nor did he drink any alcohol. All kinds of delicacies were neatly arranged on the table, and it seemed that it was going to be cold.

Qingxuan pondered for a moment, lightly lifted the jug, poured a glass of sake for him personally, and said: "Don't touch the dishes, don't touch the wine on your lips, don't you want to sit through this night banquet rigidly?"

Bai Lian was taken aback, feeling the kindness hidden in Qingxuan's plain demeanor, he seemed to have misunderstood him participating in such an occasion for the first time when he was young, and took the initiative to relieve his tension.

She put down the jug, pushed the glass of wine towards Bai Lian, and then returned to the banquet and singing and dancing room: "Relax, these people in the audience tonight will not let you sit quietly for a while." late."

When he entered the city, Bai Lian had already figured out the rules of Xianling City. He knew that after the big exam, even if the female official Qingxuan had drawn up the selection of the city master, there would still be room for one night at the banquet.

If someone is willing to exchange an immortal artifact during the banquet, they will have a chance to challenge the city lord.

It's just that immortal artifacts are difficult to refine. The most famous immortal artifacts in the world are extremely precious, and their status is second only to the thirteen swords in the Tianxi Sword Sect, the nine ancient scriptures in the Taixuan Jing Pavilion, and the magic method in the Cangwu Temple. The ten Tibetan halls in the land.

This price is too expensive, and few people can afford it. Even those who are lucky enough to have a fairy weapon have to carefully weigh the pros and cons.

Therefore, in the first half of the banquet, it was considered to be calm.

But Bai Lian knew that the banquet tonight was definitely not that simple.

Because he noticed that above the seats in the hall, there were three extremely important main seats that were still vacant, and Yun Rong, a sword-crazed girl from the Tianxi Sword Sect, was only seated in one of the second seats.

For today's banquet, people must have not yet arrived.

At this time, outside the hall, the clouds turned into the night, and the moonlight from the two tides was like washing and practicing, like a thousand-foot silver embankment splashing across the sky and breaking through the sea. .

The three figures, in no particular order, turned into three sword rainbows of different colors and fell into the hall.

Seeing this, everyone at the table looked shocked.

There are legends in the world that he was relegated to the world of mortals for 500 years, and it became a game.

After a thousand years of breaking the sea, you will be at ease.

The word Xiaoyao refers to these three Xiaoyao immortals who entered the world.

The three strongest immortals in the world.

The sword master of Tianxie, Mr. Yu.

Cangwu Palace Master, Yin Dufeng.

The Lord of Taixuan, Su Guanhai.

"I have been waiting for a long time, and I would like to invite the three immortal friends to take your seat." The female official Qingxuan stood up to greet her. When the Star Crown Immortal was awarded, at least it was the noble Golden Immortal.

But in front of the female officer of Kunlun Sixi, even if the real Jinxian enters the palace at this moment, he is only qualified to discuss friendship with her peers.

This call of fairy friend is quite polite and corporal.

The three lords of the righteous immortal sect in the world and Qingxuan exchanged a few polite words, and then took their seats.

Bai Lian noticed that among the three lords, there was a rather refined and handsome man who kept glancing in his direction with a little doubt in his expression.

His heart moved, and he thought that this person should be the suzerain of Taixuanzong, Su Guanhai, right?
And what he was looking at at the moment was not him, but Su Jing beside him.

Bai Lian glanced at her sideways, but saw that Miss Su Jing was kneeling and sitting in an upright and graceful posture, without squinting her eyes, and her cold eyes were like two thousand-year-old wells, without any ripples.

She turned a blind eye to Su Guanhai's gaze several times, as if it was not her father who just entered the palace.

Although her demeanor remained unchanged, Bai Lian still faintly caught the subtle changes in her emotions.

That is the indifference and alienation that is more indifferent than strangers.

Bai Lian didn't know what happened between the father and daughter, and he didn't intend to explore the secret.

He just felt that Su Jing was in a bad mood at this time, his eyes moved slightly, and he still felt a little embarrassed and apologetic for what happened in Fang Caihu.

After thinking about it for a while, he raised his chopsticks and picked up a round hanging-shuang ball from the small plate, and placed it on the jade-white empty plate in front of her.

Su Jing stared at him sideways, with black pupils and snowy face, his face was quiet.

Bai Li'an put down his chopsticks, turned his body to her side, and said softly, "I see you haven't eaten all day."

I don't know if there is still resentment about Fang Cai's frivolous and rude thing, Su Jing didn't look at the round ball on the plate, and looked away from his face indifferently.

Bai Lian coughed lightly, and said again: "When I was watching the song and dance performance just now, I saw you looked at the hanging frost balls on my plate a few more times, thinking you wanted them, if you don't like sweets, Then don't eat it."

He was afraid that the little ball would block her eyes, so he picked up the chopsticks and was going to pick it up and put it back.

Baili'an still didn't notice how stupid his behavior was in the eyes of others at this moment.

Su Jing raised his eyebrows, and the jade chopsticks that were neatly laid flat in front of her fell steadily between her fingers at some point.

She raised her hand to hold down the chopsticks that Bai Lian stretched out, and squinted at him with some displeasure: "I'm not interested in food, and I didn't peek at the side dishes on your plate."

Bai Lian was stunned, thinking that since this is the case, why did you stop me?

With a slight flick of his wrist, Su Jing pushed Bailian's chopsticks away, and slowly picked up the crispy and tempting hanging cream ball.

Looking at the snow-white meatballs with dark eyes, she said, "But why did you take away my side dishes without permission?"

Light words, very domineering.

After leaving her bowl, it becomes her side dish.

You can throw it in.

Take it away, no.

So, Bai Lian watched helplessly as she ate the hanging cream ball into her stomach.

He said that he was not interested, but in fact, looking at his eyes, he really likes sweets.

Su Guanhai, who was toasting with Yin Dufeng and discussing the truth, never moved away from his daughter. He didn't know about the bronze gate, nor did he know that there was a layer of siren vine connection between the two at this moment.

When he entered the palace, when he saw his withdrawn and indifferent daughter sitting side by side with a young man, he couldn't help but feel a turmoil in his heart.

Seeing the seat the young man was sitting on, he knew that he was the new owner of Xianling City.

But even so, it is difficult for ordinary people to enter his daughter's three-foot body, how did this young man do it.

Su Guanhai, who was already full of doubts, could only bear it because the occasion was wrong.

Who would have thought that the boy was so bold that he would dare to put vegetables in her bowl.

At first, Su Jing's indifferent appearance was indeed in his calculations. Su Guanhai thought that there must be another reason for his family's Ah Jing to sit side by side with this young man.

But then, when he saw Su Jing really ate the ball, Su Guanhai was shocked and speechless.

For a moment, the movement of toasting stopped there.

Of course, Su Guanhai was not the only one who was shocked and speechless at the table.

When Su Jing entered the hall and sat high on the altar, Ying Xiu, who never took his eyes off her for a moment, looked livid and ugly.

Sitting at the same table with him is the young Wu Bu who is concentrating on the delicious food on the table. The young man who was born in a bitter cold was mostly hungry when he was a child. Food.

Suddenly, he looked down and saw His Highness the Crown Prince sitting calmly, with the back of his hand hidden under the table, with bulging veins and white knuckles.

Wu Bu couldn't help being startled, spat out the flesh and bones in his mouth, followed Yingxiu's eyes to look at the hall, and immediately understood in his heart.

He hastily put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hand, leaned over and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, I have a fairy artifact here."

There is something vaguely implied.

Yingxiu's eyes moved, and he lowered his head to glance at the Lei Wu gun placed on the side of his case. He seemed to move intentionally, and frowned, "This is my father's gun."

Wu Bu grinned and said, "The suzerain gave me this gun as a gift."

Warmth gradually appeared in Yingxiu's gloomy eyes, he shook his hand, and said, "You need to rely on this gun to improve your cultivation level and practice thunder, so that you can most likely refine the body of sky thunder and completely control the kite. The brutal sword becomes the real Thirteen Swords of the Celestial Seal."

Seeing his refusal, Wu Bu felt not only not disappointed, but was even more moved by the young master's understanding. He hurriedly said: "Even without this gun, Jin Sheng's sword heart has been broken, and it will be difficult to overcome the calamity and become a fairy in his life. The opposite is true." I, the suzerain, took a fancy to my natural lightning power and intended to cultivate it, even if I didn't have this spear, I would catch up with Jinsheng sooner or later and replace him."

He fixed his eyes on Yingxiu, and said sincerely: "But your highness is different, your highness's background has always been a thorn in the heart of the suzerain, for 200 years.

The lord suzerain has never let his highness go back to White Camel Mountain to inherit the family business. Recently, his highness's collection of ghosts was obstructed by this kid, and he failed again and again. Even You Guilang, who was rare in 3000 years, died.

If I can win this Xianling City for His Highness, it will naturally become the biggest turning point for His Highness to return to the mountain, and the suzerain is here now, the opportunity is once in a thousand years, even though Lei Wu is precious, but for His Highness, Wu Department is willing to offer a bright future , Pave the way for His Royal Highness, go straight to Qingyun. "

Yingxiu saw that his words were affectionate, and he couldn't help but feel moved and relieved. He opened his lips and found that his throat was slightly choked. He coughed twice, raised his hand and patted Wu Bu's shoulder, and said: "Thank you for your kindness today, When my father looks at me, Tianxi...you, Abe, will definitely have a place. Yingshou hereby promises."

Wu Bu's eyes were so hot that he nodded his head heavily. When the song and dance were over, he raised his gun and said loudly: "Tianxi Sword Sect, Master of the Thirteen Swords, Wu Bu, I hope City Lord Sichen can ask for advice." One or two."

The relaxed atmosphere of the scene began to change in an instant.

Young Master Yu put down the wine glass in his hand, and looked in the direction of Wu Bu with deep eyes, but he didn't say anything after all.

Su Guanhai said with a half-smile, "Brother Yu, why do I remember that the thirteen swords have not been folded yet, so why did we usher in the Queen of Swords, you little apprentice, you are really interesting."

Mr. Yu was silent, his eyes were deep and unfathomable, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Yin Dufeng, who has a personality that is quite at odds with him, chuckled, but his tone was mocking.

"So, why did Lord Sword Master waste his effort to accept such a young man with mediocre spiritual roots and ordinary aptitude as his disciple 200 years ago, and painstakingly cultivated him for 200 years, and helped him to the position of Thirteen Swords? It ended up with a disparaging name that didn’t match the name, and the people of the Demon Sect made a little calculation, and they ended up with a broken sword heart, why is it that, if you find another talented boy, you won’t be afraid of chilling your child’s heart.”

In the past 200 years, Grand Palace Master Yin has been holding back his anger and has nowhere to vent his anger. If it weren't for the incident in 200 years, how could his cheerful and beautiful girl like a flower have ended up in such a half-crazy and half-crazy appearance.

Damn it, this guy really doesn't have the slightest intention of changing his behavior, he is so domineering and paranoid.

Because of these words, Mr. Yu's complexion suddenly turned cold, and his eyes, which were as cold as a thousand years old, seemed to be instantly darkened by a disease, which made his extravagant and handsome face a little bit of disapproval. It's horrible.

Su Guanhai frowned, feeling that Yin Dufeng's mouth was really bad, and how could this kind of scar that had been hidden in their hearts be uncovered in the open.

He secretly looked at Su Jing on the table in horror, feeling uneasy, and wondered if she had heard the allusive words just now.

His family, Ah Jing, was always sensitive, and I was really worried that she would go crazy with her cold eyes regardless of the situation.

With this glance, Su Guanhai's heart almost stopped.

His daughter was sitting on the counter calmly and aloofly, carefully and quietly dealing with a plate of squirrel mandarin fish.

It's just that for some reason, she didn't use her usual right hand, but used her left hand to use the chopsticks with a little difficulty.

The young man who was challenged next to him did not respond to Wu Bu's invitation. He looked at Su Jing with his chopsticks to pick up the fish, and suddenly smiled slightly. The fish meat was covered with attractive soup, and then placed between Su Jing's chopsticks, asking her to hold it firmly.

Then he looked at her with a vaguely expectant look.

That gaze is somewhat similar to that of a human cub feeding a small animal.

Su Jing raised his eyebrows and looked at him quietly, without saying a word, just lowered his head and obediently ate the fish.

Although his appearance can't be said to be very docile and well-behaved, it is true that he is no longer like the Ah Jing of his family.

The unusually harmonious and ordinary scene made Su Guanhai feel uncomfortable for a moment, and he looked at Bai Li'an in a daze.

For some reason, an absurd idea slowly sprouted like a weed seed.

But immediately, he realized that this idea was too ridiculous and self-deceiving, and cut off the idea, he shook his hand, inevitably feeling complicated.
