Chapter 986 Old and young
Yuan Yan plucked wildly with Wei Rui on her back, and after she had completely exhausted her true energy, she stopped and put Wei Rui down.
After becoming a practitioner, she never completely consumed her true energy. A strong sense of weakness and fatigue swept her instantly, making her sweat all over.
A terrifying fluctuation of vitality broke out from the direction of the previous station and appeared in her and Wei Rui's perception.
Wei Rui and she are not ordinary people. One is exhausted from her true energy and the other is seriously injured. But at this moment, the two of them are still able to remain calm.
"This kind of vital energy fluctuation... Even when dealing with me, the Demon Sect did not do all its strength so much."
Wei Rui looked at the location of the station and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "With such a terrible eruption of true energy, even if the Demon Sect can deal with this mysterious figure, he may not be able to get a bargain."
Yuan Yan's face did not have any relaxed expression. She looked at the direction of the station with a calm face and said, "But with the strangeness of the Demon Sect at this time, even if he paid a heavy price to kill this person, the stronger the opponent, as long as he can finally kill this person, he can draw more vitality from the other party. If so, we still can't escape."
"You could have left without having to tie it up with me."
Wei Rui turned his head to look at her still young but very determined face, and seriously advised him: "Even if you leave with me separately at this time, the chance of survival will be greater."
"Who are you?"
Yuan Yan looked at him coldly and asked.
Wei Rui was stunned.
He was a little confused.
"You are a general of the Southern Dynasties."
Yuan Yan answered for him, and then continued, "Who am I? I am the eldest princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty. I originally wanted to talk to Xiao Yan with the help of you. You are not from the Northern Wei Dynasty. As a general of the Southern Dynasty, you don't have to protect me. As the eldest princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty, you are like this, but I abandon you. Can I be so unrighteous? Who do you think I am?"
Although her tone was cold, Wei Rui was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It's still childish."
"Don't look down on people."
Yuan Yan sat down, she looked at the direction of the station and waited.
She was sweating all over, but the meridians in her body were empty, and there was no familiar flow of true energy. She just felt a little chill all over, so she shrank her body and naturally hugged her knees with her hands.
Wei Rui also sat down next to her.
He was already very old, and in the battle just now, he not only lost a lot of his true energy and natal energy, but also lost a lot of his vitality by burning his jades and stones, so he seemed very old at this time.
He and Yuan Yan sat together in the wild grass in the wilderness. If someone passed by and saw it, he would probably never have thought that General Wei Rui and Princess of the Northern Wei Dynasty were sitting together. The two of them fell into the eyes of most people, and they might have lost their cattle and sheep, and they looked very desolate.
The two of them waited silently for a long time, but did not feel any terrible aura approaching.
"It seems that my luck is pretty good, and I can live a few more years." Wei Rui laughed and said.
"What's going on with the Empress Dowager of the Southern Dynasty?"
Yuan Yan sat upright, no longer like a shepherd girl who lost her grazing cattle and sheep. Her tone became sharp again and she asked directly.
Wei Rui shook his head gently. He said slowly without hesitation: "Before the Three Saints of the South, the most powerful practitioner in the south should be the Taoist saint Wang Tingqing. You must have heard of it... The prosperity of the Dao Sect in the South is largely due to this person. This person improved many methods of practice, and the many notes he left behind even directly derived many Taoist schools. The records of later generations mostly attributed this person's achievements to his talent and hard work, but there were also some records in his era that were different from those enemies or hostile sects who were enemies. Among the classics left by those enemies and hostile sects, Wang Tingqing could
In that era, it was very different from everyone. It was just because of his chance that he got a dragon pill from an ancient tomb. This dragon pill made him absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth countless times that of ordinary practitioners. For later practitioners, we naturally would not spend energy to consider whether this statement is true or not. It was just that the Empress Dowager of the Southern Dynasty had seen such records and happened to discover the tomb of the Daosheng Wang Tingqing. She secretly excavated the tomb of the Daosheng Wang Tingqing, and she really obtained the legendary dragon pill magic weapon. After that, her practice speed was far beyond what ordinary people thought, and she soon became one of the Three Saints of the South Heaven."
"Even the Demon Sect can't find out such a thing, it should be a very secret matter. As far as I know, you are not too close to the Empress Dowager of the Southern Dynasty, so why do you know such a thing?"
Yuan Yan looked at Wei Rui. Although she felt that Wei Rui would not lie at this time, what the Demon Sect said before still made her feel suspicious. "And according to what the Demon Sect said, the Empress Dowager of the Southern Dynasty also knew that you knew about her and was very afraid of you, just like she was afraid of He Cultivation."
"Before the Southern Dynasties, there were three Daolings, one in Yongzhou, one in Yuzhou, and the other in Jiankang Zijin Mountain. The tomb of the Daosheng Wang Tingqing who she excavated was in Yuzhou. At that time, I was serving as the governor of Yuzhou in the previous dynasty. I practiced in Yuzhou. The day of Daoling's energy suddenly changed drastically. When I practiced the formation, I naturally had a sense of the sense that she had succeeded when I went there, but after all, she left many clues. After I arrived, I found that the tomb was actually the tomb of the Daosheng Wang Tingqing. After all, all the clues made me find out that the tomb robber was her." Wei Rui sighed, "But her cultivation had already improved by leaps and bounds, and Xiao Yan quickly rose up. In a few years, the world would be settled, and Xiao Yan was the one who Shen Yue valued. If the Daozong learned the truth and stood up to fight it, the Southern Dynasties would not know how long it would take to chaos."
"So you did not spread the news that she dug up the tomb of the Daosheng." Yuan Yan nodded and said, "It is indeed according to your wishes and where you are. Since you can't bear to let the people suffer more, you should also feel that spreading this kind of news will not be of any benefit to you."
Wei Rui nodded and said, "She knew that I was a master of formations. She was pursuing this matter back then. She must have known in her heart that I knew the truth. But seeing that I had no opinion, she also understood that I was rotten in her stomach. But according to the Demon Sect, although the emperor has treated me well over the years, she probably wanted to get rid of me to prevent future troubles."
Yuan Yan couldn't help but smiled like a gloating and said, "If she hadn't died soon after the Demon Sect, she would have taken action against you, the general who had retired and returned home after leaving the Lake Heart Courtyard."
Wei Rui did not refute, but said, "The Demon Sect was a little wrong, thinking that I had something else to do with her... I didn't know the mysterious person who came with you today."
Yuan Yan was silent for a moment, and she also heard what Wei Rui meant. Her brows frowned deeply, and then said, "I don't know either."
Wei Rui sighed softly, but he didn't know what, although he escaped by luck today, he felt even more uneasy at this moment.
If that mysterious man was defeated by the Demon Sect, he would not have thought too much.
