I seized the Demon Emperor

Hearing that Ying Qingqing was traveling with the disciples of the Sword Pavilion, Chen Luoyang's expression did not change at all.

This made the uneasy King Kong feel a little relieved.

"Apart from the disciples of the Sword Pavilion, are there other people traveling together?" Chen Luoyang asked.

King Kong replied: "The news sent back by Lao Fu seems to be the Sixth Prince of the Xia Dynasty, and the identities of the other people traveling together have not been fully confirmed."

"Did she join the war?" Chen Luoyang asked.

"That's not the case." King Kong shook his head: "Miss Qingqing did not make trouble for the disciples of our sect, and she just watched and went south all the way."

Chen Luoyang tapped the armrest of the seat with his fingers.

At this moment, his mind was turning rapidly.

Did Ying Qingqing really lose her memory or fake it?

Will she recover her memory when she went to the Sword Pavilion?

Did she see the Sword Emperor?

What is her relationship with the Sword Emperor?

Why did she go south with the Demon-killing Coalition this time?

What is her background?

Chen Luoyang was a little hesitant.

He originally planned to use this woman's Haotian Sword Qi to help him heal his wounds.

Now it seems that the uncertainty is a bit large.

Do you still want to gamble?

"Where are Lao Shou and Lao Lu now?" Chen Luoyang asked after thinking for a while.

"The latest news is that Lao Lu returned to the Holy Land from the East China Sea by sea, preparing to land on the coast of the South China Sea in Xiangzhou, and then head north to return to your seat to listen to your orders." King Kong replied: "Lao Shou went south by land, passed through Ezhou and Xiangzhou, and is now almost in Xiangzhou."

Chen Luoyang is actually not very clear about the details of his three servants, Fu, Lu, and Shou.

"Pass on my order, Lao Shou does not need to rush south, and also follow Qingqing and the others." He thought for a while and said: "There is no need to meet up with Lao Fu, and he does not need to know that Lao Fu exists. The two of them will act separately."

King Kong withdrew as ordered.

Chen Luoyang called Qinglong San again: "Pay close attention to the situation of the enemy troops in the west and report back as soon as possible."

"Yes, Master." Qinglong San immediately kowtowed upon receiving the order.

Chen Luoyang was the only one left in the room. He was no longer calm and composed, but frowned.

After a while, his frown gradually relaxed.

This might be an opportunity.

Chen Luoyang smiled slightly, stopped thinking about it, and focused his attention on learning alchemy.

Soon, new news came back.

This time, King Kong's expression was even weirder than last time.

"Master, Lao Fu is here to report." The big man hesitated and said, "According to the latest situation, Miss Qingqing seems to be under house arrest by the Xia Dynasty and Jiange people."

Chen Luoyang flipped through the book without looking up: "Reason?"

"It is said that because she is very close to our sect, she is suspected of being a spy." King Kong said.

Chen Luoyang closed the book and looked up.

Two possibilities.

One is that it is a trap for himself and the Demon Sect.

Second, Ying Qingqing is really under house arrest.

Of course, it is also possible that both are true.

The idea of ​​placing Ying Qingqing under house arrest was probably proposed by someone from the Great Xia Dynasty.

Their target is probably not only the Demon Cult, but also the Sword Pavilion.

Of course, they are not going to tear their faces against the Sword Pavilion.

But they are going to compete for dominance.

In the Middle Earth of China, the contemporary Xia Emperor is actually very embarrassed.

As the supreme ruler of the nominally unified dynasty in the Middle Earth, the Nine Five Supreme, the top master in the Middle Earth is someone else.

The person who stands in a three-way tie with the Northern Sword Emperor and the Southern Demon Emperor is the Sword Emperor.

Not the Xia Emperor.

To the outside world, the two sides must naturally unite and advance and retreat together.

But this inevitably involves a question of who is the master and who is the subordinate.

The Sword Emperor was injured in the decisive battle with the Demon Emperor this time, which is a rare opportunity for the Xia Emperor.

Taking the lead in organizing various forces to join forces to march south to the Demon Realm has this important role.

In addition, Ying Qingqing may become another pawn to reduce the prestige of the Sword Pavilion.

In this way, the Sword Pavilion cannot explain the origin of Ying Qingqing...

As expected by himself.

This may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, someone gave him a divine assist.

But it may also be a trap.

I just have a way to test it.

The earlier preparations can come in handy.

Isn't it for now?

"Find out their specific whereabouts." Chen Luoyang's face was calm, and he ordered to King Kong: "Then, send them a gift on behalf of this seat."

…………

At the junction of Xiangzhou and Xiangzhou, there is the Longxiao Mountain Range.

There are a large number of warriors active here now.

These warriors come from the Middle Earth Shenzhou in the north.

They went south all the way, attacked the thousands of mountains in the southern wilderness, and continued to advance southward, with the goal being the Demon Cult's headquarters.

In a tent here, Ying Qingqing sat cross-legged in meditation calmly.

Opposite her, there were two people.

One of them was the third disciple of the Sword Emperor, Feijian Nie Hua.

He was looking at Ying Qingqing helplessly at the moment: "Miss Ying, you... are really too honest."

"I just told you what I saw and heard in the Ancient God Cult." Ying Qingqing replied: "I am sorry to bother you two gentlemen."

A young man in white clothes next to Nie Hua, who looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, about the same age as Ying Qingqing, said calmly at this time: "Miss Ying, forgive me for being blunt, what you saw may not be true, it may just be an illusion of the Demon Cult to confuse you."

"It's possible." Ying Qingqing nodded and replied calmly: "This time when I came south with you, I saw some branches of the Ancient God Cult in Xiangzhou, which really revealed another side of the Ancient God Cult. However, I'm sorry. I venture that if everything I saw in the Ancient God’s Religion was just an illusion, wouldn’t everything you showed me be possible?”

She raised her head and looked at the young man in white calmly: "On the way south, I also saw the actions of many people in the Xia Dynasty. Except for Mr. Third and Mr. Fifth, you are a few who are upright and upright, and most of the others seem to be incompetent. How decent."

The young man in white said: "It's the lesser of two evils."

Ying Qingqing nodded: "So, I want to go to more places and see more before I can make a judgment. But unfortunately, it seems that this is not possible for the time being."

"We are rude." The young man in white said, "I just ask Miss Ying to understand that what you are doing now is not related to an individual, but may be related to the overall situation of the entire world."

He said slowly: "If the Demon Emperor only wants to beg Phoenix, although we cannot bear to see the girl throw herself into the Demon Cave and fall into the quagmire, we dare not interfere with your personal decision-making, Miss Ying.

But girl, you possess the sword energy of the Haotian Divine Sword. The Demon Emperor’s real intention is probably to lend your hand to help him heal. "

"At least Master Chen didn't hold me captive and wouldn't let me leave," Ying Qingqing said.

"Because I need your willingness, I try to whitewash it and confuse you." The boy in white asked quietly: "If he directly asked you for help at that time, would you help him?"

Ying Qingqing thought about it carefully and then replied: "I don't know. He saved my life, and I should repay him, but I don't know if it will have negative consequences, so I can't make up my mind. The reason why I left was to stay away." Some, take a look.”

"The incident in Shuzhou should be enough for you to see his true face." Nie Hua said from the sidelines at this time.

Ying Qingqing said: "According to the news I heard from you, the coalition's southern expedition plan and Leader Chen's expedition to Shuzhou basically started at the same time."

"Can it be the same?" Nie Hua patted his forehead: "The sins of the Demon Cult are too numerous to be described... Well, it's normal that your knowledge is limited."

He couldn't help but sigh.

Ying Qingqing also sighed.

The young man in white asked, "Miss Ying, can you still not remember anything about the past?"

"I came into contact with the sword intention left behind by the Pavilion Master in the Sword Pavilion. I felt a little bit, but there was no real gain." Ying Qingqing shook her head, and then asked: "I don't know, can I meet the Pavilion Master?"

Nie Hua replied: "We, the senior brothers, don't know the current whereabouts of my master. I really didn't mean to perfuse you, so please forgive me."

"It doesn't matter." Ying Qingqing said: "I don't know what they will do with me next. Take me with you to continue south, or send me to the Xia Dynasty Imperial City?"

The young man in white said: "Miss Ying, you are serious. Neither we nor the Sixth Prince and the others just want you to fall into the hands of the Demon Emperor. Therefore, we will take care of you. If you don't want to continue going south, you can go back to our sect to stay and rest temporarily." There is no reason to go to the Xia Dynasty’s imperial capital until my master returns to clear up your doubts.”

Ying Qingqing nodded: "Thank you for Mr. Wu's protective feelings. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to sit here safely."

Then she thanked Nie Hua again: "Thank you, Mr. San."

Nie Hua smiled bitterly: "Don't say that, you deserve it. It's enough if you don't scold our fellow apprentices.

Miss Ying, although you have dealings with the Demon Emperor, since we have known each other, everyone has trusted you as a person.

It's just a matter of honor for our family. We can only offend you, which is against the way of hospitality. We have no choice but to apologize to you in the future. "

"However, I also hope that Miss Ying you can recognize the true face of the Demon Sect and don't be blinded by it and get stuck in the mud." The boy in white said from the side.

While the three of them were talking, someone suddenly knocked on the door outside.

Then a group of people walked in.

The leader, dressed in bright yellow clothes, has a royal style, has a handsome face, is young, but has a majestic momentum.

When he saw the visitor, Nie Hua raised his eyebrows: "Your Highness, Sixth Prince..."

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly froze.

The sight of the boy in white next to him also fell on a sheathed sword in his hand.

"It seems that the two gentlemen are mentally prepared." The young man in royal robes said with a smile: "I bring you both good news and bad news."

He raised the sheathed sword in his hand: "Good news, as you two can see, the fourth gentleman of your sect is probably still alive."

Nie Hua and the young man in white took a deep breath.

That is the sword of Juejian Xingmang, the fourth disciple of the Sword Emperor Sect!

A smile appeared on the face of the young man in royal robes, and his eyes fell on Ying Qingqing.

"The bad news is that your distinguished guest may be more involved with the Demon Cult than we expected."

Nie Hua asked: "What does His Highness the Sixth Prince mean by this?"

"A letter was sent with the sword." The young man in royal robe waved his hand, and the entourage behind him presented the letter.

Nie Hua took it and unfolded it, and looked at it with the boy in white next to him.

The letter is short.

Just ten words.

"One person for another, one life for one."
