After Cultivating With the Enemy
Chapter 65:
A few rays of light fell from the sky and fell into the market town at the foot of Hongmeng Mountain.
The town used to be very lively, but now it is deadly silent, the streets are in a mess, and a few corpses have fallen on the side of the road.The disciples stepped out of the teleportation circle, Ji Chaoyun walked to a corpse on the side of the street, squatted down into the spiritual veins, his eyes darkened suddenly.
"Brother Bai, these corpses are still warm, and they were all killed by one sword." Behind Ji Chaoyun, a disciple replied.
With a sword on Bai Qiuyue's waist, she nodded her head to signal that she understood, and noticed that Ji Chaoyun was still squatting on the ground, walking towards him: "Little Dragon, what can I find?"
"No." Ji Chaoyun said, "The murderer seems to have a very high level of cultivation, and he can't see the number of Shenfa for the time being."
Bai Qiuyue pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Separately check to see if there are any survivors and clues to the murderer."
"Yes."
When Ji Chaoyun was about to leave, Bai Qiuyue suddenly stopped him: "Little Dragon."
"Senior Brother Bai, is there anything else?"
"It's nothing, just remind you to be more careful." Bai Qiuyue smiled and said, "High-level disciples are not enough. Most of the second-level disciples Xuan and Huang have to prepare for the quarter exam. Only then did I recommend you to Tianshu Xianzun. You can't do anything, otherwise the phoenix can peel me alive."
Ji Chaoyun: "I understand, thank you Brother Bai."
After he finished speaking, he followed the footsteps of the disciples ahead.
This market town is not too big, Ji Chaoyun searched around for a while and quickly came to an end.
At the end of the market town is a pine forest.
Ji Chaoyun did not stop and walked straight into the pine forest.A figure followed closely, but Ji Chaoyun quickly disappeared into the jungle, without any trace.
The man stopped and searched left and right, but was suddenly pulled from behind.
Ji Chaoyun dragged the person into the jungle shelter and asked in a cold voice, "What are you doing with me, A Zhu?"
Jun Ruzhuo's face seemed to be a little pale, he forced himself to calm down and straightened his clothes: "Who, who said I followed you."
They are already far away from the disciples outside, because of the pine forest and grass cover, from the outside, you won't even find two people inside.
Ji Chaoyun's face was cold, and the eyes that looked at Jun Ruzhuo were cold.
Even if his cultivation base has progressed extremely fast recently, he still won't be Jun Ruzhuo's opponent.But Jun Ruzhuo was instinctively a little afraid when he looked at it.
Ji Chaoyun was angry.
In Jun Ruzhuo's memory, this person has never been angry with him.When he was still in Lingyuanhai, Ji Chaoyun had the highest status among his peers, the oldest, and the most gentle temperament.
He treated all the younger brothers and sisters in the clan with gentleness, no matter whether he was a direct line or a side branch, without the slightest prejudice.
But now he is angry.
Ji Chaoyun said, "Tell me, what's going on here?"
"I do not know."
"Jun Ruzhuo!"
Jun Ruzhuo shrank, his momentum instantly weakened: "I, I really don't know..."
Ji Chaoyun: "Everyone in this town was stabbed to the point with a sword. The murderer acted neatly and his cultivation was not under you. And the sword move used by the murderer is a secret technique from Lingyuanhai."
"...Jun Ruzhuo, what is going on?"
Every time Ji Chaoyun said, Jun Ruzhuo's face became paler, but he didn't answer, just lowered his head, and didn't even dare to look at Ji Chaoyun's eyes.
"...Don't force him anymore." A voice rang from the bushes behind the two, and Ji Chaoyun was startled, his face instantly lost blood.
A slender man walked slowly out of the pine forest.
The visitor wore a silver robe, with long silver hair draped behind him, tied with a crown and ring, with extraordinary bearing.He is still young and handsome, but there is a sense of vicissitudes between his brows.
Ji Chaoyun's fingers couldn't stop trembling, all the voices choked in his throat, and he couldn't say a word.He watched the man pass him, stepped forward, and patted Jun Ruzhuo on the shoulder: "Azhu really doesn't know anything. He is only responsible for leading you out alone. There is no point in questioning him."
"You..." Ji Chaoyun's voice was low, "You did it?"
The man turned his head, revealing a three-point look similar to Ji Chaoyun: "Yan'er, haven't seen me for so long, do you really want to call me father king again?"
As night fell, the fire in the cave was beating, illuminating the rugged rock wall.
Ji Chaoyun knelt down under the rock wall, his hands tied in front of him by a slender silver chain, his expression calm and indifferent.
Outside the cave, Jun Ruzhuo's voice faintly sounded: "Uncle, you clearly said that you only wanted to draw Feng Qi out for an excuse. Why did you kill the people in the market town, and why did you want to kill your cousin—"
There were many guards guarding the entrance of the cave. The Dragon King tilted his head and whispered something to one of the guards before turning around and interrupting: "A Zhu, you can just look at him, don't ask more about other things."
"but……"
The Dragon King glanced at him coldly, Jun Ruzhuo's voice stopped abruptly, and he saluted the Dragon King and turned back to the cave.
Jun Ruzhuo walked to the stone table and poured a glass of water, returned to Ji Chaoyun, squatted down, and handed the glass to his mouth.Ji Chaoyun didn't raise his head, turned his head too far, and ignored it.
"Uncle said, after Hongmeng Academy handed over Feng Qi, he will let you go." Jun Ruzhuo said in a low voice, "He won't hurt you."
Ji Chaoyun closed his eyes: "When it comes to this, you still believe in him?"
Jun Ruzhuo lowered his eyes and said nothing, Ji Chaoyun said, "Blame me for leaving too early. Over the past three hundred years, Jun Jue has been teaching you to make you look like you don't know right from wrong."
"I..." Jun Ruzhuo looked dodge, "I just want to know the truth."
Half of Ji Chaoyun's face was reflected by the beating flames, and his expression was faint: "Do you want the truth? Okay, then I will tell you the truth."
"You should already know that the demon army that attacked me and Fengqi on Mount Xumi was actually refined by mortals. We followed the clues and found the Dragon King Temple in Linhai Village. At the Dragon King Temple, I saw Jun Jue."
"But he didn't come to exterminate demons. He deliberately designed to lead me there, and wanted to use the magic weapon on my body to open the seal of the demon domain."
Jun Ruzhuo widened his eyes in astonishment: "What did you say..."
Ji Chaoyun ignored it, but continued: "You always wanted to know why I left Lingyuanhai three hundred years ago. Actually, it was not just because Jun Jue wanted to kill me, but I learned that Lingyuanhai was already in front of the battle. Turn back and take refuge in the demons."
"Three hundred years have passed since the Great War between Gods and Demons. I thought that even if the Dragon Race had gone astray, when the war was over and the Demon Domain was sealed, it should return to the right path." Ji Chaoyun said quietly, "But I didn't expect this. For three hundred years, Jun Jue’s connection with the Mozu has not been broken. He... is wrong."
"what?"
Ji Chaoyun looked down at the silver chain tied around his wrist, and a coolness gradually rose from the bottom of his heart: "It is not Jun Yue who is connected with the devil."
Jun Ruzhuo looked at him steadily, with a trembling voice: "You mean...uncle?"
Ji Chaoyun said: "I have never understood before. Even if the Lingyuan Sea Dragon King was seriously injured in the original battle and could not be retired, how could he know nothing about Jun Jue's behavior for so many years. It seems that it may not be the case now. I don't know, but condone.
Jun Ruzhuo didn't speak for a long time, he suddenly got up and reached out to pull the silver chain on Ji Chaoyun's hand.
"what are you doing?"
"Take you out of here." Jun Ruzhuo said quickly, "I know that it's useless to say anything now. I'm credulous. I don't want you to forgive me. This place is not far from Hongmeng Mountain. After a while, I will open the guard at the door. You escape."
Ji Chaoyun held down his hand: "Then you..."
Jun Ruzhuo: "My uncle wants you, I will be fine."
There seemed to be some secret method attached to the silver chain, and Jun Ruzhuo couldn't pull it apart.He got up and drew out his sword, swinging it towards the silver chain.
The moment the Jianfeng touched the chain, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared in the cave.The next moment, Jun Ruzhuo flew out and slammed into the rock wall on the other side.
"A Zhuo!"
Jun Ruzhuo barely got up, a trace of blood slipped from his lips.
"Look, I said your nephew is unreliable, as expected." A voice sounded from outside the cave, and the two inside the cave looked out at the same time.
When the Dragon King walked into the cave, a glass light mirror floated beside him.
The silhouette of a person is vaguely revealed in the light mirror, which is very vague and unreal.
The Dragon King ignored the person in the mirror. He walked quickly to Jun Ruzhuo's side, leaned over and touched a few spiritual points on his body, and whispered: "Don't move for an hour, otherwise you will be backlashed."
The spiritual power surging in the body gradually calmed down, Jun Ruzhuo was a little surprised: "You..."
The Dragon King retracted his gaze and didn't look at him again.
The person in the mirror said again: "Your Majesty Dragon King is still too soft-hearted, this kind of traitor should be killed, why save him?"
The Dragon King said coldly: "Yan Huaqing, don't forget what you promised me?"
"It won't hurt the dragon clan's life, I remember."
The voice was clear and clear, and it seemed to contain a smile, but it was as cold as a snake and scorpion.
Yan Huaqing.
Ji Chaoyun's eyelashes moved slightly, remembering when he had heard the name.
Feng Xiao fought hard with Demon Region for a long time because of the existence of this person.
"Devil's Domain is actually not difficult to deal with, there is only one person, it is very difficult.
"Yan Huaqing, Lord of the Demon Realm."
"That person is extremely talented and has vicious and vicious methods. It is said that he was once an attendant of the former lord of the Demon Realm. A hundred years ago, he personally killed his master and ascended to the position of the Demon lord. Then, he only spent a hundred years, Then the demon realm, which had been gradually declining, was expanded to the present level."
"If you get rid of him, the Demon Realm will not attack and destroy itself, and the hidden danger of the Demon Realm will never be eradicated when he is alive."
"Yan Huaqing..." Ji Chaoyun raised his eyes to look at Dragon King, "So, are you really cooperating with the Mozu?"
"So what?"
Ji Chaoyun said: "Are you crazy? You know how many lives he killed in the first place. Even A Xu died because of him. Why do you want to help him! If the Demon Territory returns to the world, what will happen to the Immortal Territory and the world, How can you--"
He struggled with his wrists, causing the silver chain to rustle.
The Dragon King didn’t look at him, and said quietly: “You’re misunderstood. The Lord came here just to avenge Jue'er. There have been nets inside and outside this cave. As long as Feng Qi is killed, we will stop. ."
Ji Chaoyun froze while raising land.
The Dragon King raised his hand and summoned a guard, and said: "Send a letter to Hongmeng Academy, saying that Jun Yan is here with me, and let Feng Qi come to see me."
The guard responded: "Yes."
"Wait." The voice in the light mirror sounded again, and said softly with a smile, "I heard that Feng Qi has been in retreat for a long time, and that the old man Tianshu is Feng Qi's uncle again, and he will definitely protect him. Just send a letter. Go, they probably won’t hand them over."
Longwang frowned slightly: "What do you want?"
The light mirror flew to Ji Chaoyun's side, and the blurred mirror turned its direction to face Ji Chaoyun.Ji Chaoyun looked at the mirror coldly, but there was a chill in his heart that was peeped at.
The voice said softly: "Peel him off a piece of dragon scales and send it to Hongmeng Academy together."
The Dragon King shouted: "Yan Huaqing, you are enough!"
"This is enough? I haven't finished it yet." The person in the mirror said with a cold smile, "Tell them, every half an hour, they will peel another piece. I heard that there are nine thousand on your dragon clan. With more than six hundred dragon scales, I have always wondered if this is true."
"..."
"What's the matter, your Majesty Dragon King can't do this? That's right, I heard that you love this son the most, so naturally I can't bear his suffering. Do you need me to help you?"
"No need." The Dragon King's voice was low, and he closed his eyes, as if finally made up his mind, "I will do it myself."
The person in the mirror gave a chuckle, letting go.
Ji Chaoyun watched the man slowly walking towards him, the blood on his pale face faded.
