However, they are a minority. Over the past few thousand years, few practitioners below the thirteenth level have been able to survive the Autumn Water Cold Tide.
I can count them on two hands.
At this moment, the autumn water is cold and the rain is continuous.
The rain hit the leaves like a curtain, and then fell like a beaded curtain, causing ripples and clear sounds in the puddles that were large enough to cover the soles of shoes.
A misty vapor obscured the view, and the cold air continued to torture people's minds.
This rain alone is enough to crush practitioners below the thirteenth level.
A woman, soaking wet, looked at the rain in the sky and said softly, "It will clear up."
The moment she finished speaking, the rain above her head turned into sunlight and shone on her flawless face.
She said without any expression on her face, "How boring."
If someone saw this, they would be amazed at the woman's ability, and would also be surprised that such a powerful person could sit in a wheelchair.
The woman sat on the wheelchair Xu Chen had made for her and murmured, "Xu Chen, I miss you."
One Hundred and Eighty-Nine, Finally Got His News
royal palace.
Autumn Leaves Pavilion.
A woman sat in the pavilion, looking down at the chessboard.
Strangely, there was no one else in front of her.
She seemed to be playing chess with herself.
But soon, as if sensing something, she turned around, bowed, and said, "Your Majesty."
"No gift."
The Empress looked at her friend and said, "Who are you playing chess with this time?"
The woman in front of her is her best friend, the Gun Immortal Yan Lengyan.
The number one gunsmith in Dasheng.
There is one stone of Dasheng spear, Yan Lengyan takes eight dou, the spear master Xu Zixuan gets one dou, and Dasheng shares one dou.
Looking across the entire Dasheng, no one knows more about guns than Yan Lengyan.
The Empress knew that her best friend liked to simulate battles with others, but she was not sure whether this would be useful.
Perhaps Yan Lengyan is the only person in the world who would do such a thing.
After Xu Chen's death, the empress only had Yan Lengyan left, and Yan Lengyan was the only one who would communicate with her normally.
The other ministers faced her with fear and other inexplicable emotions.
Only Yan Lengyan is different.
Yan Lengyan will not change his opinion of her or become submissive just because her identity is different from before.
This is also the reason why the empress likes to come to Yan Lengyan.
"grandmaster."
Yan Lengyan responded softly. She was not as nervous as others when facing the empress. She could always remain calm.
First, she has the ability, and second, she and the empress have been together for three hundred years.
grandmaster……
When the empress heard this nickname, she thought of Xu Chen from three hundred years ago.
Because Xu Chen has many nicknames, but people don’t know that those nicknames all come from the same person.
Chess Saint is one of Xu Chen’s nicknames.
"In a month, the Autumn Water Cold Wave will begin. Will you go?"
The empress revealed her purpose. She came to see Yan Lengyan for this matter.
"I'm not interested."
Yan Lengyan shook her head. As a great cultivator, she seemed to have no interest in the treasures and heavenly books in Qiu Shui Han Chao.
The empress seemed to know what Yan Lengyan was thinking. She didn't show much surprise and asked, "Are you worried that there's no one in the palace?"
Of course there are people in the palace, but what she said is naturally not referring to ordinary people, but people with strong strength.
She knew that Yan Lengyan was very worried about her safety. More than two hundred years ago, she almost died at the hands of an assassin.
Since then, Yan Lengyan has been very worried about her safety and feels guilty about what happened that year.
"Ah."
Yan Lengyan did not deny this. She did not want the empress to encounter such danger again.
Xu Chen is no longer with us, so she naturally has to fulfill her promise and protect Feng Qingshuang on his behalf.
"Isn't there another one in the palace?"
The empress mentioned that person, who was the most powerful person in Dasheng.
Many great practitioners would brag about themselves by saying, "I can beat everyone except the one in the palace," because people would not regard that person as someone to be surpassed.
Because it is an old monster that has lived for thousands of years.
Still in the coffin.
That person hasn't taken action for a long time.
"Two hundred years ago, she didn't make a move."
Yan Lengyan shook her head. She didn't think that man would act so easily.
That person probably only takes action when he thinks it is important.
That person only recognizes the emperor from a thousand years ago.
"She will take action at the critical moment."
The Empress seemed to know the person in the coffin very well and said, "Besides, I am no longer the same person I was two hundred years ago. You should trust me."
She didn't like to call herself "I" when chatting with Yan Lengyan, and she didn't want to have a thick barrier between them.
She doesn't like that.
Yan Lengyan was quite surprised and asked, "Why?"
Everything has a reason.
She didn't understand why the empress was so persistent and would rather sacrifice her own safety to let her go to Qiu Shui Han Chao.
"He is back."
Hearing these four words, Yan Lengyan's heart made a strange beating.
The expression on her face suddenly changed, and the way she looked at the empress changed. She asked, "Is that Xu Chen you're talking about?"
"Who else but him?"
The Empress nodded and said, "Now that he has lost the strength he once had, I'm afraid he will want to go to Qiushui Frost Tide."
"I see."
Yan Lengyan suddenly accepted all this because everything had an explanation.
If it were him, it would be understandable why the empress would do this.
She had to admit that if Xu Chen was still alive two hundred years ago, that incident would never have happened.
The Empress' life will never be in danger.
He would definitely do better than her.
She still remembered the conversation she had with Xu Chen three hundred years ago.
"Why are you teaching me this? Don't great cultivators keep their unique skills privately?"
"Is it possible... that this isn't a unique skill at all?"
"This... doesn't count?"
"just kidding."
Xu Chen looked at the woman in front of him and said, "Don't think I'm from Baijiao. If I'm not with Qingshuang, you will protect her for me. Remember?"
"But why aren't you with Qingshuang?"
"Everything has its surprises, you know?"
"understood."
"Then do you remember what I just said?"
"remember."
At that time, Yan Lengyan thought Xu Chen was joking. How could he leave Feng Qingshuang?
But she didn't expect that day to come so soon.
She wasn't even prepared.
Three hundred years later, she finally got news from him again.
"I understand. I will go to Qiushui Cold Tide."
Yan Lengyan agreed without further hesitation.
It is up to him to protect Feng Qingshuang.
……
Killer organization.
Nether Palace.
In the main hall, there is a luxurious black and gold chair standing on the steps.
The masked man sitting on the chair looked down at the four people at the bottom of the stairs and asked indifferently, "Are you sure she has left the organization?"
The person he was talking about was of course An Qingxue.
"Yes."
A woman wearing a crying mask knelt on the ground and said respectfully, "That's what the Blood Orphan Cult members all say."
"I didn't expect someone would want to leave our organization so badly. That's great..."
The masked man sighed and said, "Forget it, leave her alone. After all, I'm not a bad person."
The people below showed surprised expressions. They didn't expect the boss to be so kind.
The masked man asked, "In a month, I will enter the Autumn Water Cold Wave. Who of you wants to go with me?"
Most of the people in the killer organization are good at sneak attacks, assassinations, and even poisoning.
In fact, he is not that good at direct confrontation, and there will be many strong people going to the Autumn Water Cold Tide, and even a practitioner at the Saint Realm will easily die.
"I."
Just then, a woman reached out and decided to go.
This person is the woman known as "carrying a knife but not an umbrella on a rainy night."
……
Wushui Inn.
A young girl was staring at the koi-shaped sachet in front of her. The sachet was colorful and emitted a strange scent under the bright moonlight.
"In the final analysis, I still don't understand my junior brother."
Ye Miaoyi tightly clutched the sachet that Xu Chen had given her a few months ago, her eyes full of loss.
