The sky was a little dark, and the figure gradually approaching was very blurry. Li Mengzhou, who was still weak, could hardly see clearly, but he subconsciously held the sword in his hand tightly, and the others were also alert, and stood up one after another and stared at the figure.

"Is it my fourth senior brother?"

Jiang Zihua was still lying on the ground. Among the people present, his cultivation was a bit weak. If Prince Xueye had not targeted Chen Qiubai and Bei Zangfeng and others at the same time, that moment would have been enough to kill Jiang Zihua and He Zhengrong and other monks who were only in the four realms.

Many people have this idea, and they think that only Ning Haoran can appear at this time.

But Ning Haoran's appearance is definitely not a good time.

They were all able to barely stand, and even holding the weapons in their hands, they felt like they were holding the air.

If you meet Ning Haoran at this moment, it will be extremely bad.

The four-level monks in Langya City also flew past the ruins of the city walls, and were very nervous and anxious to stand up.

But that emotion was only temporary. They were not suppressed by Prince Xueye's Taixuan thoughts, so they could naturally see the appearance of the visitor clearly.

The gradually approaching figure was a little staggering because he was still carrying a man on his back.

It was Yang Qi who appeared outside the south city gate with Chu Canglan on his back.

Chen Qiubai looked slightly stunned. He looked at Chu Canglan on Yang Qi's back, and was silent for a moment, walked forward, and said, "I have also heard about His Highness the Second Prince. I will let Ning Haoran give an explanation."

The death of His Highness the Second Prince of the Western Jin Dynasty in Jiang State is an issue that cannot be ignored. The seriousness is no less than that of Prince Xueye's death here. Even Ning Haoran is the fourth gentleman of the Palace Sword Court, he will be greatly punished. Yan State is different from the Western Jin Dynasty. The Western Jin Dynasty has always maintained neutrality. Even if the relationship with Jiang State is not particularly good, it is also very kind. If the Western Jin Dynasty stands on the opposite side of Jiang State, and then the war will be raised with Yan State, the entire Jiang State will suffer.

Chen Qiubai's teacher is the national teacher of the State of Jiang Kingdom, and he is also highly valued by His Majesty the Emperor. He must be cautious in dealing with Ning Haoran's problems.

Yang Qi looked very decadent, his face was pale, and even a little sallow. He looked at Chen Qiubai with his eyes blank and said lightly: "I want Ning Haoran to die."

Chen Qiubai frowned slightly and said, "Although I have the fault of Ning Haoran, I don't have the right to kill Ning Haoran. I have to wait until I leave the Qianhai Realm. Your Majesty will give you an explanation to the Western Jin Dynasty, and I will do my best to capture Ning Haoran."

If the matter really reaches an uncontrollable point, he can naturally kill Ning Haoran on his own initiative and notify His Majesty the Emperor and Xue Wangyou, the director of the Ligong Sword Academy, of the specific situation, but when he had to do so, he could not directly agree with Yang Qi's request.

Ouyang Shengxue also walked up to her, bowed to Yang Qi and Chu Canglan on his back, and said softly: "My fourth junior brother killed His Highness the Second Prince, is not the original intention. Although this situation is difficult to explain, if there is a grudge in my heart, I can take on everything for the Fourth junior brother."

“No need.”

When Ouyang Shengxue heard this, she was about to speak again, but suddenly realized that the words were not spoken from Yang Qi's mouth. He looked at Chu Canglan on Yang Qi's back unexpectedly, but saw Chu Canglan slightly raised his head and grinning weakly, "I'm not dead yet, and it can be seen that there is something wrong with Mr. Fourth, so Mr. Big doesn't have to bear anything."

All the practitioners outside the south city gate looked at Chu Canglan in shock.

The reason why they were shocked was not that they hoped that Chu Canglan would die, but that Chu Canglan, who thought he was dead, was still alive!

Jiang Zihua couldn't help but run over, touched Chu Canglan carefully, and said in disbelief: "I clearly saw it with my own eyes, could you be immortal?!"

Chu Canglan coughed lightly and signaled Yang Qi to put him down and his feet fell to the ground, but he was extremely weak and almost fell down. Fortunately, Jiang Zihua quickly helped him support him. Yang Qi also panickedly supported Chu Canglan and stabilized his body.

Everyone looked at Chu Canglan.

He said softly with a smile: "I thought I was dead at that time, but when I was awake again, I realized that the sword that Mr. Fourth stabbed me was a vital point, but it was not a vital point. It was just a very close place to the vital point. If I were outside and did not receive timely treatment, I would die. Fortunately, I was lucky in the Qianhai Realm, which allowed me to do my best to save myself from the abyss."

Jiang Zihua said excitedly: "It must be that the fourth senior brother is still rational. At the last moment, he deliberately stabbed him!"

Bei Zangfeng said, "I can see clearly. Perhaps Mr. Fourth's sword is indeed a bit biased, so Mr. Fourth's reason is still intellect, which is a very easy explanation. But in fact, Mr. Fourth's reason has always been very clear, and things are never that simple."

He looked at Li Mengzhou and Xiao Zhinan.

Ning Haoran completely changed his personal life because of the emergence of consciousness outside the mountain. Chu Canglan survived by luck because of the so-called rationality of Ning Haoran, which shows that Ning Haoran's consciousness was not completely swallowed up by the mountain. At least it was like that when he killed Chu Canglan, but there are always problems with this kind of story direction.

Moreover, Bei Zangfeng saw it very clearly. Ning Haoran's sword stabbing at Chu Canglan was indeed not a struggle in his consciousness. In that case, there would always be some pauses. However, Ning Haoran was very decisive in his sword at that time, without any drag on it, but the sword was just a slash. According to normal logic, Jiang Zihua's words were indeed the best explanation, but Bei Zangfeng knew that there were other problems here.

He thought that Ning Haoran had not appeared in Langya City for a long time, so it was definitely not because Ning Haoran dared not appear. Ning Haoran, who had a consciousness outside the mountain, could not reason with a normal person. If Ning Haoran had any purpose, would he have to keep Chu Canglan alive?

So Ning Haoran's sword did not pause at all, it was not that he accidentally stabbed the wrong way, but that his original purpose was to stab the wrong way.

Bei Zangfeng, who was not used to thinking about problems, began to think carefully and then grasped a very critical point.

After all, if Ning Haoran's consciousness belongs to the fourth Mr. Ligong Sword Academy is blocking the consciousness outside the mountain, it is impossible to cut out the sword so decisively. When the two consciousnesses collide, no matter who it is, they will be lost for a moment, and even so serious that their heads are as painful as tearing. When they roar, Ning Haoran has no such situation and the movement of the sword is paused at all, there is only one explanation left.

Ning Haoran did deliberately make a fuss.

However, the intentional spike in Jiang Zihua's mouth and the intentional spike in Bei Zangfeng's idea are obviously two different meanings.

Li Mengzhou, who noticed Bei Zangfeng's eyes, was silent at this moment.

Speaking of which, whether it is Mr. Fourth's consciousness or Shanwei's consciousness, it is actually Ning Haoran. In his thoughts, just expelling the Shanwei's consciousness in Senior Brother's mind can restore the fourth brother to normal. But after all, the Shanwei's consciousness is not a breath left by Old Long in his sea of ​​energy. It is impossible to completely expel it. Even if a person loses his memory, that consciousness is only temporarily buried, and it will always exist.

Of course, he would rather believe that as Jiang Zihua said, it was the fourth senior brother's consciousness that resisted, which made the sword stab and did not kill Chu Canglan. However, even if Bei Zangfeng did not say it very specifically, he could understand that it was just a possibility.

What's more, even if Ning Haoran really did not kill Chu Canglan because of his rationality, that was the case before. The fourth senior brother he met near Shanglu was obviously stronger in Shanwai's consciousness, so Chu Canglan was able to survive. It may not be a good thing for Li Mengzhou now. It can only mean that the fourth senior brother was swallowed up by Shanwai's consciousness.

Chu Canglan was not dead, of course it was a happy thing for everyone.

Especially for the monks in Jiang Kingdom.

Seeing everyone heading to the city, Bei Zangfeng stood there without moving. When Li Mengzhou walked to him, he briefly told Li Mengzhou his thoughts.

Li Mengzhou thought carefully for a moment, then frowned tightly and said, "If the fourth senior brother deliberately stabbed Chu Canglan to survive, then he realized that Chu Canglan's identity could not die in the Qianhai Realm. If he could not kill all the monks in the Qianhai Realm, then whenever he left the Qianhai Realm, if the fourth senior brother was not strong enough, he would be inseparable."

Bei Zangfeng said: "Although it makes sense, if Mr. Fourth knew this, why would he have to stab that sword?"

Li Mengzhou said: "I don't understand the situation at that time, but I have heard from Jiang Zihua that the fourth senior brother wanted to kill everyone, including Jiang Zihua, He Zhengrong and Shen Jiyue. It was Chu Canglan's appearance that hindered him. Perhaps the fourth senior brother's idea at that time was also very contradictory. He wanted to kill Chu Canglan, but he had to consider what happened after leaving Qianhai Realm. That sword had to be released, but Chu Canglan didn't have to die."

Bei Zangfeng said: "Even Mr. Fourth is not sure to kill all the monks in the Qianhai Realm. The so-called rationality is still there. It is because he is not controlled by desire and leaves a way out for himself, rather than that Mr. Fourth's consciousness briefly defeated the consciousness outside the mountain. Even if that is not a good thing for you, it is the only reasonable explanation at present."

Looking at Li Mengzhou in silence, Bei Zangfeng continued, "You'd better understand that maybe Mr. Fourth did not kill Chu Canglan, so that his troubles were not at the worst. But he eventually killed many practitioners in the world, which was already a big trouble. Besides, you also wanted to kill Prince Xueye. Whether it was the second prince of the Western Jin Dynasty or the Prince of Yan State, there was an entire dynasty behind them. When the Qianhai Realm time limit came, there would be big trouble for the Palace Sword Courtyard."

Li Mengzhou frowned. No matter how he left Li Gong Jianyuan, his identity as Mr. Seven of Li Gong Jianyuan was an indisputable fact. It seems that his considerations were too simple before. In this way, even if he wanted to kill Prince Xueye, he could not be in Jiangguo territory, or could not let anyone know that he was killed by himself.

But these monks in Qianhai Realm all knew that he wanted to kill Prince Xueye. Even if he could not find evidence, he was the easiest to be suspected.

Thinking of killing Prince Xueye, or even hostile to the entire Beiyan Dao Palace, there is also Qin Chengyi in Langya City to kill. No one of his identities is simple. If he cannot be strong enough to ignore all the rules in the world and to turn Ligong Sword Court out, he cannot just talk.

He pondered, looked at the direction where Prince Xueye left, and said softly: "The fourth senior brother's problem is indeed very troublesome. He has not appeared in Langya City so far, and he deliberately let Chu Canglan live and leave a way out for himself. Maybe he has deeper ideas."

In addition to people with a very deep background like Prince Xueye and Chu Canglan, the practitioners of the world, except for the mountain monks, also came from the fourth or fifth sects, but they did not die in the end. When Ning Haoran walked out of the Thousand Sea Realm, he would not be directly questioned, so he would have hope of survival. What Ning Haoran considered was not to kill Chu Canglan, which would cause evil in the Western Jin Dynasty and Jiang Kingdom, but his own safety.

Bei Zangfeng said: "Do you think Mr. Fourth will not come?"

Li Mengzhou said: "If the Fourth Senior Brothers come, it is very likely to be hidden in the dark. Then when we were the weakest just now, it was definitely his best opportunity to go out for mobile phones. As long as we kill all the monks in the Thousand Sea Realm, the outside world doesn't know what happened. The facts are all the fourth Senior Brothers. Even if someone suspects it, it is impossible to kill him directly. Maybe he didn't expect Prince Xueye to appear and was unwilling to take this risk. Naturally, he missed the best opportunity, and it would be even more unlikely to appear next."

Bei Zangfeng thought for a while and said, "But Mr. Four needs to hunt cultivators to become stronger. If he doesn't come to Langya City, when the time limit passes, his hunting cultivators in Qianhai Realm will still be exposed. He really doesn't even have the chance to take a gamble?"

Li Mengzhou said: "Chu Canglan is enough to be alive. If he wants to bet, it is impossible for him to let Chu Canglan live. There are so many practitioners in Langya City, many of whom have entered the fifth realm. The fourth senior brother is not an idiot. He knows that there is no possibility of a result, so why should he bet?"

He rubbed his eyebrows with some depression and said, "If I had known this, I would have stayed him desperately in Shanglu. Who would have thought that Luo Qingming had arrived in Qianhai Realm, but he had appeared for a limited time. I only thought that the fourth senior brother would definitely come to Langya City, but I still underestimated the rationality that the fourth senior brother still possessed by being swallowed by the consciousness outside the mountain."

Bei Zangfeng said lightly: "Don't think too much. Now that things have come to this, you can only take one step at a time. You should think more about what Mr. Si's identity outside the mountain is completely known to the world, what will Ligong Sword Courtyard and even the entire Jiang Kingdom face? Perhaps this day will finally change."

Hearing this, Li Mengzhou remembered something and said, "I always feel that even if the teacher sealed the fourth senior brother's past memories, when the teacher brought the fourth senior brother to Ligong Jianyuan, no one in the capital noticed it? Even if ordinary people can't notice it, what about the dean of Lihua Academy?"

Bei Zangfeng frowned slightly and said, "The dean should know everything, but since I didn't even know Mr. Fourth's affairs in advance, it means that the dean is also helping to conceal it. If that's true, maybe the result is not as bad as we thought."

Li Mengzhou was silent for a moment and said, "I guess there are not many days left. Although it is unlikely that I will break the realm again, I can understand more if I can understand it at any level. Whether it is outside or in the Qianhai Realm, there are too many bad things happening to me. I am too lazy to think about it anymore. No matter what is waiting for me, I will split it with one sword."

......

Somewhere in Jiang Country.

Ning Haoran, dressed in a little tattered clothes, stared at the direction of Langya City.

After going to the hut, he did not hunt down cultivators again. Although there may still be practitioners in the Qianhai Realm that have not gone to Langya City, it is undoubtedly extremely difficult to find them one by one.

He knew very well that the location of Qianhai Realm was different every time. Although he came in from the palace, he might appear anywhere in Langya City when he went out. He had to ensure the best condition. When he arrived outside, he could kill the practitioners in the world at will, provided that he could escape safely from the heavens.

"Junior brother, live well, I will come to find you sooner or later."

......

Fengjiang City.

In Taiqing Building.

The three temple monks carefully investigated.

Prince Xueye's face was very pale. He looked at Han Youqing standing in front of him and said softly: "Some things are inconvenient to tell you, but when we come to Jiang Kingdom, we are not just going to the Qianhai. Mr. Seven of Ligong Sword Court wants to kill me, but I also came up with a very interesting idea. Do you think that if I destroy Ligong Sword Court and let their brothers kill each other, is it a great picture?"

Han Youqing said with a little puzzled understanding: "How can senior brother do it? Ning Haoran hunts cultivators everywhere, and has become a public enemy of monks in the sea realm, but the people in Ligong Sword Academy are still protecting him. How could they kill each other?"

Prince Xueye smiled faintly and said, "Ning Haoran is a key, but I mean more than Ning Haoran. If you want to destroy a mountain gate, there are actually many ways, and it is not easy to kill each other. So I need to wait for an opportunity. When I first arrived at Langya City, Jiangguo, I heard about something. It was related to Ligong Sword Court, and it would be a place that I could use very well. I also believe that that person should be willing to cooperate."

Han Youqing remained silent. He thought about Shen Jiyue. What should she do if Li Gong Jianyuan was destroyed?

But looking at Prince Xueye in front of him, the thought in his heart was not revealed.

......

In Langya City.

late at night.

The stars are flashing everywhere.

Only the moon is missing.

In the quiet wine shop, Xiao Zhinan was drinking alone.

Ouyang Shengxue's figure appeared at the door of the tavern.

He stared at Xiao Zhinan's figure under the candlelight, exuding a very hazy beauty. Xiao Zhinan's face was very arrogant and he drank wine calmly. It was very moving, but it seemed that there was no emotion in her eyes, but it made Ouyang Shengxue feel panicked.

He hesitated for a moment and stepped into the restaurant.

Looking at Xiao Zhinan's face, Ouyang Shengxue calmed down and slowly spoke: "Miss Xiao seems to care about my junior brother very much."
