Chapter 330 A brief moment of peace

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang looked at each other and saw the solemnity in each other's eyes.

They knew they were intercepted here, which meant that the current situation was very serious.

After all, this is Yujing City.

According to the established rules, this place is under the jurisdiction of Si Tianjian.

Although they both belong to the territory of the Wei Dynasty, the Wei Dynasty can only station ordinary soldiers here.

An army with strong combat effectiveness such as the Forbidden Army is obviously not included in this list.

Since the Forbidden Army appears here, it means that the Emperor of Wei and Si Tianjian have reached some kind of tacit understanding.

Fang Yue came to his senses by the way. Of course, at the same time, he was also thinking that at this time, the other party had not kidnapped his parents to threaten him. It seemed that things might not be that bad after all.

Or maybe they thought they could capture him just by relying on their current formation!

"What do you want to do?" Zhu Linlang took a step forward and asked coldly.

"do what?"

The general of the Forbidden Army sneered, "Your Highness, the King of Han is now rebelling. We have already grasped your relationship with the Blood Dragon Platform, so please do not resist and come with us."

After Fang Yue heard this, his eyes narrowed slightly and he quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind.

He knew that any impulse at this moment might lead to unforeseen consequences.

However, the forbidden troops in front of him alone could not stop him.

"How about it? I'll count to ten. If you two are captured without mercy, you can still save your life." The Forbidden Army general snorted coldly.

Fang Yue smiled slightly, appearing calm and confident, "Then we don't have to waste time. If you want to take us away, then come and try."

The face of the Forbidden Army general darkened, "Humph, if you don't eat the toast, you will be punished with a drink. Prepare to attack!"

The Imperial Guards immediately assumed a fighting stance and slowly approached.

Zhu Linlang looked at Fang Yue nervously and saw him pull out his long sword from his waist and make a gesture to prepare for battle.

A fight was about to break out between the two sides, but suddenly, a burst of hoofbeats broke the tense atmosphere.

A group of knights came from a distance, and their arrival temporarily stopped the Forbidden Army's attack.

The knights were dressed in black and had masks on their heads. Their faces could not be seen clearly, but the chilling aura they exuded was intimidating.

"We are here to arrest the rebels under the orders of the Holy One. Who dares to make trouble here?" the Forbidden Army general shouted loudly, trying to maintain order on the field.

"Hey, this is Yujing City. You guys want to arrest me, the Supervisor of the First House, Si Tianjian. You are really audacious."

The leader, a man in black, sneered, his voice revealing disdain and arrogance.

The general of the Forbidden Army was stunned, frowned and looked at the man in black, "I have already told Mr. Zheng, who is your Si Tianjian, about this matter. He has already removed this Fang Yue from his name as Si Tianjian."

Hearing this, the man in black sneered even more, "Humph, do you think Mr. Zheng can represent the entire Si Tianjian? What a joke. Fang Yue is an elite in our Si Tianjian, and his decision is not made by Mr. Zheng alone. It’s up to you.”

The face of the Forbidden Army general changed. He did not expect that the man in black would be so disrespectful and directly contradicted the senior officials of Si Tianjian.

This made him feel a bit tricky. After all, he didn't want to be an enemy of Si Tianjian.

"In that case, may I ask who you are?"

The Imperial Guards general tried to find out the identity of the other party in order to make a more accurate judgment.

"You don't have to know who I am."

The man in black replied coldly, "All you need to know is that we are taking Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang away. If you have any questions, you can ask your boss."

The Forbidden Army general was silent for a moment, knowing that he could not act rashly at this time.

The men in black in front of him were obviously not something he could deal with, and their identities and purposes were full of mysteries.

"Okay, since your Si Tianjian wants someone, our Forbidden Army naturally dare not stop him." The Forbidden Army general finally chose to give in.

"However, I hope you can give me a reasonable explanation, otherwise I will not be able to explain it to the superiors."

The man in black nodded, "Don't worry, we will naturally give you a satisfactory answer. But now we have to take people away first."

After saying that, the man in black signaled to Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang. The two immediately understood and followed the man in black and left the scene.

The Forbidden Army general took a deep breath and looked at the direction in which the man in black was leaving with complicated eyes.

He knew that he had no choice but to let Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang be taken away by the men in black.

This situation is beyond his control and he must report it to his superiors immediately.

Of course, this matter is not over yet.

On the other side, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang followed the man in black through the streets of Yujing City.

They were taken to a secluded location, and the men in black maintained a high level of vigilance to ensure that no one was following them.

"It's safe here."

The leader of the men in black said, his voice revealing an unquestionable authority, "You will not be in danger for the time being."

Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang followed the leader of the men in black into a hidden courtyard. Although the place was not big, it was well laid out and exuded an elegant and refined atmosphere.

"You can stay here for a few days and wait until the wind blows out before making plans."

The leader of the men in black said, although his voice was cold, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang could feel the concern in it.

The two of them looked at each other, feeling warm in their hearts.

They knew that although these men in black looked hateful, they were actually their saviors.

"Thank you for saving me."

Fang Yue clasped his fists and said, "May I ask for your name? If necessary in the future, we will definitely report back to you."

The leader of the men in black smiled slightly and waved his hand, "There is no need to ask for your name. We all work for Si Tianjian, and it is our duty to protect you."

When Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang heard this, they felt even more grateful.

They knew that their escape this time was all thanks to the help of these men in black.

In the following days, Fang Yue and Zhu Linlang lived in this small courtyard.

~~~~~

A few days later, Fang Yue decided to go back to visit his parents.

After all, this time, he hadn't seen them for a long time, and he also wanted to confirm the safety of his parents to ensure that they were not affected by this incident.

Zhu Linlang understood his concerns and supported his decision, but she decided to stay in the courtyard and continue to wait for news. At the same time, she also conducted some investigations and planning with the help of the leader of the men in black.

Before leaving, Fang Yue had an in-depth conversation with the leader of the men in black.

"Are you leaving?" The leader of the man in black's tone was still cold, but there was a hint of concern in his eyes.

"Yes, I want to go back and see my parents." Fang Yue said sincerely, "I must ensure their safety."

The leader of the men in black was silent for a moment, then nodded, "I understand. But you have to be careful, the situation is still complicated."

"I understand." Fang Yue nodded, "I will be careful."

"Okay, you go." The leader of the men in black said, "But remember, come back early. Those people may not give up easily. Be careful after leaving Jade Capital City."

"Thanks for the reminder, I will come back as soon as possible." Fang Yue said solemnly.

Then, he said goodbye to Zhu Linlang and the leader of the men in black, and started on his way home.

Although Yujing City is only more than a hundred miles away from Wutu City, there is no guarantee that you will not encounter enemies on the road.

However, although Fang Yue is cautious, he is not afraid. Now that his cultivation has greatly improved, no matter how many ordinary enemies come, they are still no match for him.

At this time, in Jade Capital City.

Nangong Lie, the general of the imperial army of the Wei Dynasty, was standing on the wall of Yujing City, looking at the direction in which Fang Yue was leaving.

He has a resolute face and deep eyes, as if he can penetrate all appearances and see the essence of things.

As the general of the Forbidden Army, he shoulders the important responsibility of maintaining the safety of the Wei Dynasty. But at this moment, someone threatens the safety of the dynasty.

"Deputy Supervisor Chen, we don't have to pursue the case regarding Zhu Linlang, but do you, Si Tianjian, Fang Yue, want to defend this to the end?"

Nangong Lie turned around and said to a middle-aged man next to him.

This middle-aged man is Deputy Supervisor Chen of Si Tian Jian. He is wearing a green robe and has a pensive look on his face. "General Nangong, this matter is not as simple as you think. Fang Yue is not only a talent of our Si Tian Jian, Our director, Mr. Zheng, attaches great importance to him."

After hearing this, Nangong Lie narrowed his eyes slightly, and a look of surprise flashed across his face, "Director Zheng-sama pays attention to it? What's going on?"

Deputy Supervisor Chen sighed softly, "It's a long story. Fang Yue's performance in Si Tianjian has always been eye-catching, and his talent and intelligence are rare.

The director, Mr. Zheng, thinks highly of him and considers him to be the future pillar of Si Tianjian. Therefore, we must not let him be put in danger. "

Nangong Lie frowned, "Even so, he has now been involved in the rebellion case, which is no small matter."

Nangong Lie pondered for a moment, and then said slowly: "Deputy Supervisor Chen, I understand that Si Tianjian attaches great importance to Fang Yue, but you also know the current situation. The crime of rebellion is not a trivial matter. If Si Tianjian insists on protecting Fang Yue, I am afraid that Cause unnecessary trouble."

Deputy Supervisor Chen was frowning. He knew that what Nangong Lie said was true, but he felt unwilling to give up on Fang Yue like this.

Seeing this, Nangong Lie continued: "Of course, we are not unreasonable people. As long as Si Tianjian is willing to give up Fang Yue, we can provide sufficient benefits in exchange."

"Oh? What benefits?" Deputy Supervisor Chen asked with raised eyebrows.

"We can provide you with a spot in the Secret Realm of Ten Thousand Demons." Nangong Lie said slowly, with an unquestionable determination in his voice.

When Deputy Supervisor Chen heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The Mysterious Land of Ten Thousand Demons is a mysterious land, and the legend contains endless opportunities and treasures.

It opens every fifty years, and only a handful of lucky people can enter it and explore the coveted treasures.

The quotas for the Ten Thousand Demons Secret Realm have always been tightly controlled by major forces. Although Si Tianjian is powerful, the quotas he can obtain every year are extremely limited.

"Are you willing to provide ten places in the Ten Thousand Monsters Secret Realm?"

Deputy Supervisor Chen asked tentatively, but there was a huge wave in his heart.

If we can really get such ten places, it will undoubtedly be a huge gain for Si Tianjian.

Nangong Lie nodded, "Yes, as long as you are willing to give up Fang Yue, this spot will be yours as Tianjian."

His eyes shone with determination, clearly full of confidence in this proposal.

Deputy Supervisor Chen was silent for a moment, struggling fiercely in his heart.

Although Fang Yue is extremely talented, the spot in the Secret Realm of Ten Thousand Demons is equally attractive.

This is not only an opportunity to explore treasures, but also a great opportunity for Si Tianjian's disciples to experience and grow.

"I need to discuss this with the director, Mr. Zheng."

Deputy Inspector Chen finally said, with a hint of helplessness and struggle in his voice.

Nangong Lie smiled slightly, "No problem, I'll give you one day to think about it. I hope we can achieve a win-win cooperation."

Deputy Supervisor Chen nodded, turned around and left in a hurry.

He needs to tell the director Mr. Zheng the news immediately and then make a decision.

Nangong Lie, on the other hand, was still standing on the city wall, looking at the direction in which Fang Yue was leaving.

A sly smile appeared on his face, "Fang Yue, Fang Yue, I want to see if you are worthy of a spot in the Ten Thousand Demons Secret Realm."

At this moment, Fang Yue didn't know everything that was happening in Yujing City. He was still on his way home.

There are green fields on both sides, and the setting sun shines on the road, casting long shadows.

Everything here feels familiar to him, this is his roots, his starting point.

As night fell, Fang Yue could already see the lights of Wutu City flickering in front of him.

He quickened his pace, walked across the familiar bridge, passed through the lively market, and finally arrived at the door of his home.

"She'er, She'er, you're back!"

As soon as he arrived at the door, Fang Yue saw his mother, Chen, running towards him with joy, and a warm current surged in his heart.

He stepped forward and hugged his mother tightly.

"Mom, I'm back." Fang Yue said softly, with tears shining in his eyes.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

Mrs. Chen said excitedly, stroking Fang Yue's face, "Let me take a good look at you. Have you lost weight? Have you gotten darker?"

Fang Yue smiled and shook his head, "Mom, I'm fine. I even brought a lot of things back for you and dad."

With that said, Fang Yue took out some special products and supplements bought in Yujing City from the package and handed them to Chen.

Mrs. Chen looked at the things in her hands, and a trace of emotion flashed in her eyes, "This child brings so many things every time he comes back. In fact, mom doesn't need these, as long as you come back safely."

At this time, Fang's father also heard the sound and came out. Seeing Fang Yue coming back, a happy smile appeared on his face, "Yue'er, you are finally back. How long can you stay this time?"

Fang Yue looked at his father and replied with a smile: "Dad, I want to spend more time with you when I come back this time. There has been a lot of wind outside recently, so I just took this opportunity to stay at home to avoid the limelight."

Father Fang nodded, "Okay, just come back. Your mother talks about you every day."

The family of three walked into the house, sat around the fire, chatted about home affairs, and enjoyed the rare reunion time.

However, this warmth did not last long.

Early that morning, when Fang Yue was about to go out, a group of Forbidden Army soldiers rushed to his door. (End of chapter)
