Outlaw

This woman's strength is indeed extraordinary.

But speaking too loudly.

Ensuring that Huaidong is safe, ensuring that Xiao Beichen rebuilds the Longshan Xiao family in Huaidong, can Xiao Junlin's crisis be resolved this time?

Forget it, how dare you still want a promise from the empress?

Getting more and more crazy.

Xiao Beichen was a little unhappy.

Qingyan said: "My master is the third son of the emperor, Xia Shantu."

hiss!

Xiao Beichen took a deep breath.

Summer Mountain Picture!

The third prince!

Good guy.

A mere border land in the east of Huaihe River actually attracted the influence of two princes at the same time.

I really like Xiao Beichen.

Tang Ziyue leaned into Xiao Beichen's ear and introduced softly: "My lord, Prince Xia has many heirs. But there are only three people who are most promising to compete for the future crown prince. Xia Shantu is one of them."

Xiao Beichen nodded and sat down opposite Qingyan, drinking tea and smoking without answering.

Qingyan said: "Although Xiao Junlin has the will of the emperor, he is also the son of Empress Xiao. However, Empress Xiao was too domineering and put pressure on Emperor Xia to give Xiao Junlin his surname Xiao. This move has made Emperor Xia dissatisfied. Mr. Xiao You might as well think about it, if you were Emperor Xia, would you let a person with a foreign surname become the future prince?"

"Xiao Junlin is excellent in all aspects, and he is also the most popular candidate for the crown prince. But I think that he has actually been rejected by Emperor Xia. It's just that he didn't realize it."

From a common sense point of view, it is obviously impossible.

But the matter of the fourth prince's surname Xiao may not be that simple.

Xiao Beichen didn't dare to draw any conclusions.

Seeing that Xiao Beichen did not express his position, Qing Yan continued: "In the future, as long as the empress supports my master, it is basically a certainty that my master will become the crown prince. At that time, Mr. Xiao will assist the new monarch with merit. You want justice, My master can give it to you."

"You can get everything you want without any effort. Why not?"

Ah!

Xiao Beichen suddenly smiled: "Sorry, I can't promise you."

Qingyan was shocked: "You actually refuse such a good thing?"

Xiao Beichen said: "Beiliang's affairs are also a matter of national importance. I will not sacrifice Beiliang's interests in exchange for my interests."

"If I am in trouble, the empress is my master, and it is reasonable for her to help me. Because if Beiliang is in need, I, Xiao Beichen, will not look back. But if you want me to sacrifice Beiliang's interests, no!"

"I believe in the Empress, and the Empress also believes in me. I don't want to hear this a second time."

After saying that, Xiao Beichen stood up suddenly: "Tang Ziyue, see the guests off!"

Although Tang Ziyue felt sad that Xiao Beichen refused this matter.

How could she not know that as long as Xiao Beichen agreed, Xiao Junlin's matter could be temporarily relieved without any effort.

But Xiao Beichen refused and chose a more difficult path.

As a counselor, she felt that Xiao Beichen was not rational enough.

But it was precisely because of Xiao Beichen's choice that she admired him endlessly.

King Xiao Bei for five years should be like this!

It should be affectionate and righteous!

This is the lord worthy of assisting and following him.

If Xiao Beichen only cares about profit... Tang Ziyue will be even more disappointed.

Today he can sacrifice Beiliang to protect himself, and tomorrow he can sacrifice the Forbidden Palace, or even her, Tang Ziyue!

Tang Ziyue smiled, stretched out her hand and said, "Miss Qingyan, please."

Qingyan stood up, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Xiao Beichen, you are really stupid. Important matters of family and country are originally the exchange of various interests and values. You don't even understand this truth, you are too naive. Go your way. Not far."

"Without my master's help this time, you won't be able to get over this hurdle."

After saying that, Qingyan left.

When he walked to the door, Xiao Beichen suddenly said: "Go back and tell Xia Shantu - the country I long for is a country with love, justice and justice. If what I do deviates from my original intention, it will be meaningless. ”

Qingyan paused.

"Innocent!"

After leaving two words, Qingyan left.

Xiao Beichen and Tang Ziyue were the only two people left in the room.

Xiao Beichen breathed a long sigh of relief: "Tang Ziyue, am I very stupid and naive?"

Tang Ziyue said: "It's very silly and naive."

Ah!

Xiao Beichen laughed at himself: "But I have always been like this. I want to change, but I can't."

Tang Ziyue suddenly smiled: "No need to change. That's it, it's good. As your counselor, I, Tang Ziyue, will just accept your advice. If you change your appearance, I will feel that what I have done is not worth it. "

Xiao Beichen suddenly laughed.

Tang Ziyue also smiled.

Four eyes, relative.

"Tang Ziyue, this time, we may really have reached a moment of life and death."

Tang Ziyue stretched out her hand: "I will live and die with you."

"I, Tang Ziyue, will use all my strength to help my lord survive this disaster."

Seeing this, Xiao Beichen's eyes became wet with tears: "That's good, I will share life and death with you."

The hands of the two were tightly held together.

Life and death, together.

After a long time, Xiao Beichen let go of his hand: "Tang Ziyue, I'll trouble you about the matter of King Huaixi at the foot of the mountain. I'll go into seclusion for a few hours, and then go to the Xiao family's mansion in Longshan."

This is very sad.

Xiao Beichen knew that he was no longer able to guarantee Tang Ziyue's safety.

Because he was going to the top of Longshan Mountain to meet Xiao Junlin.

If Xiao Junlin cannot be suppressed, everyone in the Forbidden Palace will die.

Including Tang Ziyue!

This is what he, the lord, must do.

Tang Ziyue smiled desolately and said: "Go ahead. Concentrate on dealing with Xiao Junlin. Leave the matters here to me."

Xiao Beichen turned around and walked away, suddenly stopping when he reached the door.

If it fails, this farewell will be an eternal farewell.

Xiao Beichen couldn't bear it!

Although Tang Ziyue came out of the mountain voluntarily, it can also be said that she was dragged into the water by Xiao Beichen.

Xiao Beichen turned around and gave Tang Ziyue a deep hand: "Tang Ziyue, I, Xiao Beichen, am lucky to meet a counselor like you in this life. From now on, your business will be my business. If I become the emperor in the future, you will be the king of the country." division."

Tang Ziyue cupped her hands with tears in her eyes: "Lord, take care."

Xiao Beichen left.

He has too important things to do.

……

Far away from Longshan, under an inconspicuous tree.

A stone table.

Sitting next to him was a young man wearing a green robe, as straight as a spear, with a majestic air that covered the Xuanyuan.

Qing Yan walked over slowly and saluted respectfully: "Master, Xiao Beichen...rejected."

The young man was slightly startled: "Oh? He was desperate, and he refused? What did he say?"

Qingyan said: "He said that he would not sacrifice Beiliang's interests in exchange for his own interests. And let me tell you something - the country I long for is a country with love, righteousness and justice. If I If what I do deviates from my original intention, it will be meaningless.”

The young man played with the wine glass for a long time and smiled.

"Interesting. This person is worth getting to know."

Qingyan was surprised: "Master, he rejected it openly. Aren't you angry?"

The young man smiled and said: "How can I, Xia Shantu, be so small-minded? Moreover, only people like this are worthy of being my friends, Xia Shantu."

Qingyan said: "The matter about the Xiao family in Longshan..."

Xia Shantu said: "Go and have a look. If the situation is not so bad, we can always save his life."

Qingyan said: "But if we take action, we will openly become enemies of Xiao Junlin. Is it worth it?"

Xia Shantu smiled: "In the court, he and I have been enemies many times. Besides, if you offend Xiao Junlin once, you can get a favor from the Empress of Northern Liang, it will be a very cost-effective deal. .”

Qingyan lowered his head: "Master really has a great plan."

Xia Shantu said: "Xiao Beichen attaches great importance to love and righteousness. If we want to win over such a person, we have to pay true love and righteousness. Do you understand?"

Qingyan suddenly realized: "That's it, I understand."

……

Returning to his tent, Xiao Beichen sat cross-legged in retreat.

Sorted out his own strength and changes.

Prepare for the final decisive battle.

After experiencing the battle of killing eighteen Yanyunke, Xiao Beichen gained a lot of insights. In addition to devouring twenty-two inner elixirs, Xiao Beichen's Qi refining skills have made great progress.

The realm of cultivation has reached the three-star real elixir realm.

This is already an incredible achievement.

As for Xiao Beichen's fellow practitioners of the four major systems, Qi refining is the foundation of everything.

Thanks to the help of the Empress, the body refining technique has firmly entered the realm of true dragons. The combat effectiveness is still above the three-star real elixir realm.

The demon can sense the soul refining technique, but has not yet awakened. The combat effectiveness is slightly weaker than that of body refining.

The most gratifying thing is the Yin Fu technique.

Because the snow dragon bones have grown again, the five natal Yin symbols are engraved on the cold jade bones.

Today, Xiao Beichen is already a solid fifth-stage Yin Talisman master in the early stage.

What level is a fifth-stage Yin Talisman master?

Fourth-stage Yin Talisman masters can compare to the Taoist realm. Even powerful fourth-stage peak Yin Talisman masters can rival those in the Danxing Realm.

As for the fifth-stage Yin Talisman master, it is comparable to the higher level of inner alchemy realm.

Sixth Stage Yin Talisman Master...that has surpassed the Inner Alchemy Realm and is comparable to the legendary Creation Realm.

Yin Fu Technique is already Xiao Beichen's strongest system. It has a somewhat off-the-beaten-path feel.

I have to say that the Jiuyin Talisman Technique is very awesome. Xiao Beichen has not been practicing for a long time, and he has already felt the profoundness of this technique. However, this technique is incomplete, and what Xiao Beichen can see can only cover the fifth level Yin Talisman Master.

pity!

However, the black dragon pattern is still short of the last step, and it has not been able to temper the dragon fire. Xiao Beichen still knows very little about Yin Fu.

After becoming proficient in the four major systems, Xiao Beichen also became familiar with various major techniques, spells, and treasures.

After finishing all this, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

Exit.

Outside the door, Xiao Baiyu, Sister Zhou, Wen Zaiqing, and An Ruoxue were all there.

There are also tied up Xiao Qianyue, Xiao Jinghong, Granny Hua, Elder Ying, and Young Master Long.

Xiao Beichen waved his hand: "Let's go. Go to the top of the mountain, the Xiao family's mansion in Longshan. Meet the sealed blood demon, and meet Xiao Junlin who is coming soon."

Set off to the Xiao Family Mansion on the top of Longshan Mountain.

Longshan is very big and very high.

When approaching the top of the mountain, Xiao Beichen saw a familiar mountain road.

The pavilion on the mountain road was the place where I often waited for my grandfather to come home when I was a child.

Xiao Beichen stopped in the pavilion and looked far into the distance.

It's like going back five years ago.

After a long time, Xiao Beichen turned around and left, climbing to the top of the mountain.

The familiar Xiao Family Mansion in Longshan came into view.

Although many buildings have collapsed, only ruins remain.

But the most familiar central training ground is still fine.

Xiao Beichen walked up to the training ground step by step, a sad smile flashed at the corner of his mouth: "Xiaoxue, this is my home. It is the place where I was born. This training ground is the place where my grandfather worshiped as a general. It is also the place where our Xiao family The place where the government trains troops.”

An Ruoxue watched and listened.

This military training ground can accommodate one hundred thousand soldiers.

Extremely powerful!

Huaidong is unique.

Just looking at the training ground, An Ruoxue could imagine how dazzling and powerful the Xiao Family Mansion must have been at its peak.

It's just that things are different.

Xiao Beichen said: "Later, my Xiao family's house was massacred. In this square, thousands of the Xiao family's sons died. In addition to the previous defeat at Langya Mountain and the conspiracy, a full hundred thousand Xiao family died. Shijiro."

With that said, Xiao Beichen moved forward step by step.

"On July [-]th, the thirty-fifth year of Daxia, the sky was filled with autumn leaves. My second uncle was expelled from the Xiao family in Longshan and went south to settle in Zhonghai with top-secret orders from the Xiao family mansion.

"On the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month of the same year, the Xiao family of Longshan was wiped out overnight, and blood flowed into rivers. On that day, there was a heavy snowfall in Huaidong that had never happened in thirty-five years."

"A heavy snow covered all the bloodstains of the Xiao family in Longshan and froze all the corpses. It erased everything."

"Seven days later, on the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, I fled south to Jianmen Pass, where I was cut off by Luo Tianyang. After that, I talked with Tang Ziyue, and on the same day, I crawled on the ice and snow, and traveled [-] miles westward to Kunlun.

"Three days later, on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the Xiao family in Zhonghai was destroyed."

"..."

Every time he said a word, Xiao Beichen took the initiative to take a step forward.

When walking through the training ground, Xiao Beichen stood at the gate of the Xiao Family Mansion in Longshan.

Looking at the broken plaque, there are three words written on it: Xiao Family Mansion.

Xiao Beichen's eyes were filled with tears.

Five years ago, this was Xiao Beichen's home!

Now, back again.

Things are wrong.

The Xiao family's mansion is still there, but where is the Xiao family's son here?

They have all become dead souls!

Everyone stood behind Xiao Beichen without saying a word.

Looking at the tears in the corners of this young man's eyes.

An Ruoxue wanted to say something to comfort her, but she didn't know how to say it, so she could only stare blankly. Unknowingly, the corners of his eyes were a little moist.

After looking up at the plaque for a long time, Xiao Beichen looked away: "Let's go. Go in!"

Inside, it was empty and no one was there.

But most of the familiar building collapsed.

Xiao Beichen looked at everything familiar, and couldn't help but think of bits and pieces of the past in his mind.

Every step he took forward felt extremely heavy.

Walking through the Xiao Family Mansion in Longshan, it felt like walking through my own children and teenagers all over again...

Every bit of the past is vivid in my mind, as if it was yesterday.

Familiar people appeared in my mind.

Second uncle, second aunt, eldest brother, eldest sister... mother, father, aunt, and the dearest grandpa and grandma...

Now, only myself is left alone.

He just walked like this for a long time.

Finally, we reached the end of the Xiao Family Mansion, the ancestral hall.

At the entrance of the ancestral hall, there is a cliff.

Xiao Beichen stood on the edge of the cliff and stayed for a long time.

An Ruoxue walked over and held Xiao Beichen's hand: "Brother, what kind of place is this?"

Xiao Beichen burst into tears and smiled: "This is the ancestral hall of my Xiao Family Mansion. Five years ago, I was here, watching my grandfather beheaded. And I was also arranged by my grandfather to jump off the cliff. Survive on the cliff.”

"But now, I can't even find the bodies of grandpa and grandma!"

Tick ​​tock!

An Ruoxue burst into tears.

The tears couldn't help flowing down anymore.

Swish!

Xiao Beichen raised his head and looked at the dark sky: "Grandpa, you are in heaven, how are you? Grandson, I'm back to see you!"

"My grandson, Xiao Beichen, came back to see you today!"

Hoarse voice, endless tears, lonely boy, silent mountains.

The echo ripples in the mountains and fields.

Behind him were Wen Zaiqing, Sister Zhou, and Xiao Baiyu who couldn't help crying.

Xiao Qianyue and Xiao Jinghong showed sinister smiles and had no feelings at all.

Xiao Beichen didn't care and looked up at the sky alone.

Talking to grandpa facing the heaven above the sky.

After a long time, Xiao Beichen looked away, looked at the ancestral hall, and walked slowly over.

Open the door of the ancestral hall.

The ancestral hall is large and well-preserved.

In the hall of the ancestral hall, everlasting lanterns are still lit.

At the end, there is Xiao Qianlong's spiritual tablet.

Xiao Beichen respectfully burned three sticks of incense and kowtowed nine times.

Swish!

Xiao Beichen waved his hand, placed a coffee table in the center of the ancestral hall, and sat down.

Opposite the coffee table, there is an empty chair.

Wen Zaiqing, Zhou Sisteryan, Xiao Baiyu, and An Ruoxue stood behind Xiao Beichen respectively.

Xiao Jinghong, Xiao Qianyue, Young Master Long, Old Ying and Granny Hua were tied up and thrown to the ground.

Xiao Beichen looked at the time: "According to Tang Ziyue's calculation, he should be arriving soon."

"Let's wait here!"

Time, minute by minute.

Suddenly, a huge roar came from the void outside the ancestral hall.

Twelve dragon guards came carrying sedan chairs through the air.

Swish!

The sedan was parked at the gate of the ancestral hall.

People in the ancestral hall can clearly see the door of the sedan chair.

Xiao Beichen stared deeply: "Since you are here, let's show up and see him."

Whoa!

A gust of cold wind blows.

The door of the sedan slowly opened.

Qian Yue, wearing a bright red cheongsam, walked out.

Tall, graceful and magnificent.

Then, a young man wearing a purple and gold robe stepped out of the sedan.

He is [-] meters tall, the same as Xiao Beichen.

He is also the same age as Xiao Beichen.

But he was born to look down upon all the people in the world and had a royal demeanor.

Compared to Huang Shao, I don’t know how many times higher he is.

Xiao Beichen clearly felt that he was not facing one person, but a young emperor with thousands of troops.

His power is indescribable and suffocates everyone.

It was as if the heaven and earth had lost their color, leaving only the bright light of this person.

Xiao Junlin!

He slowly walked into the ancestral hall, sat down on the chair opposite the coffee table, and said with a naturally aloof attitude: "Xiao Beichen, long time no see!"
