Chapter 207: Ten Thousand Years of Ice
Lu Zhu's expression immediately relaxed when he heard Ji Liao say this, "Senior Sister Long, you should learn from Senior Brother Ji, you look at others." ”
"Hmph!" Ryuhime snorted coldly in response.
After a while, Lu Zhu was a little dignified, stared at Ji Liao and said, "I believe you can also see that the task I took on is indeed a bit risky, and I came this time to find Senior Brother Ji to complete this task with me." ”
"Hmm. Ji Liao nodded.
"Some time ago, the sect suddenly issued a secret mission, I thought about it for a long time after I learned about it before taking that task, you all know that our Shendong borders the wilderness, and the two domains have a hostile relationship, so they usually plant spies in each other's regions, and I took over this task. Lu Zhu slowly said what the task he had been tasked with was.
Ji Liao's brows furrowed even tighter when he heard this, he had heard about the affairs of Shendong and Huangxi, it was rumored that Huangxi was barren, although there was trade between the two places, how could those can meet the cultivation needs of a region, so the monks of Huangxi often robbed Shendong's resources, and many sect disciples, or monks who were scattered cultivators, were robbed by the monks of Huangxi, and even lost their lives, so the relationship between Shendong and Huangxi slowly became hostile, and they secretly moved constantly with each other, and many spies were installed, paying attention to each other's every move.
"I have a lot of friends in the immortal cultivation world, but there are not many friends who can really entrust my life, and after thinking about it, I still think that Brother Ji is the most suitable. Lu Zhu said.
Ji Liao and Long Ji glanced at each other again, and after thinking about it, Ji Liao replied, "I don't know if there are others in this task?"
Lu Zhu shook his head, "We have a lot of spies who go to Huangxi, but the selected sects are very secretive, and very few people know about them, so even if we meet spies like us in Huangxi, we can't recognize them." ”
"Hmm..." Ji Liao nodded, his brows furrowed and he thought about it.
Long Ji heard that Lu Zhu took this task, and her face was even more cold, and she looked at Lu Zhu with an unkind face.
"This task is not going to our family Ji Liao, you have to go by yourself. ”
Lu Zhu smiled bitterly, but he didn't move, still looking at Ji Liao without giving up.
The venue was quiet all of a sudden, and Long Ji and Lu Zhu's eyes were on Ji Liao's body.
Ji Liao thought for a long time before he looked up at Lu Zhu again and asked, "So how long will this mission take, and will there be someone to answer when we get there?"
"Hahaha, I said that Senior Brother Ji would definitely agree. When Lu Zhu heard this, he immediately laughed.
But Long Ji had a different expression, staring at Ji Liao with an ugly face without saying a word.
"You'd better talk to me first. Ji Liao asked cautiously.
"As far as I know, we should go to a place called Badian City, there is a sect called the Fire Sparrow Sect near there, and we are secretly monitoring the spies of the Fire Sparrow Sect going to Shendong in Ba Die, and then send back the news to Shendong, it should be a small shop
The identity of the second is used as a cover-up, and the time is only two years, and the time before and after is more than three years. Lu Zhu said, paused and added, "This mission looks dangerous, but as long as we are careful and not discovered, there is no danger." ”
Ji Liao nodded and thought about it again.
"Ji Liao..." At this time, Long Ji, who had not spoken, called out to Ji Liao.
Ji Liao retracted his gaze and looked at Long Ji, as if he had made some decision, and grinned, "Don't worry, it's only three years, and I'll be back soon." ”
After speaking, he looked at Lu Zhu again, "Brother Lu, since this is the case, I will agree to this matter, I don't know where to take this task?"
"Hahaha, okay, as long as Senior Brother Ji agrees, I'll take care of the rest for you, I'll send you Zhuji Dan in a few days, the location of the mission is far away from Shendong, so we'll set off in ten days." Lu Zhu said with a smile.
"Yes. Ji Liao nodded in response.
Lu Zhu got up and bowed his hand to Ji Liao and the others, "Since that's the case, I won't bother, I'll go and carry out this mission for you." ”
Ji Liao arched his hand at Lu Zhu, "Please." ”
Ryuhime's face was so ugly that she didn't pay any attention to the two of them, tilting her head to the side as if she hadn't seen it.
Ji Liao sent Lu Zhu out of Long Ji's cave mansion, and then walked back, entered the pavilion and saw Long Ji with his back to him, with a wry smile on his face, sat on the edge of the bed, and patted Long Ji gently.
"Don't touch me. Long Ji opened Ji Liao's hand back and said coldly.
"Eh..."Ji Liao sighed, and then said, "Lu Zhu is our best friend, he came to beg me at this time, how can I refuse." ”
Hearing this, Long Ji immediately turned around and stared at Ji Liao coldly, "Didn't you say that you would return to Xianbei in a few days?"
"Then let go of the matter of Xianbei for a while, anyway, it's only three years, and I'm not in a hurry for a few years, besides, Lu Zhu gave you the opportunity to go to the Silent Annihilation Realm, so he took the risk to take this task, and I did this to repay him a favor. Ji Liao said.
"But—" Ryuji wanted to say something but paused, her hand unconsciously touching her lower abdomen again.
Long Ji is not an unreasonable woman, knowing that Ji Liao is also doing this to help her repay the favor, there is an opportunity to build a foundation in the Silent Extinction Realm, Lu Zhu is willing to give this opportunity to himself, this favor is too great, now Lu Zhu has a request for them, they are refusing, then it is impossible to say.
"But... Our family business. Long Ji still said a little unwillingly.
"After three years, when I return to the sect, I will marry you as soon as possible. Ji Liao replied with a chuckle.
Long Ji's eyes flashed as she looked at Ji Liao, her hand clenched on her lower abdomen unconsciously, and she gritted her teeth after a long time before she made a decision, "Okay, in that case, I promised you to go, but you have to promise me that you must come back safely." ”
"Hmm. ”
Ji Liao nodded solemnly.
Long Ji sighed lightly, a little bitter in her heart, and secretly said in her heart, "He and I will wait for you here." ”
The two talked for a long time, and then Ji Liao got up and walked towards the entrance of the cave of Yanshui Peak.
Long Ji followed, and the two stopped at the gate of the cave, Ji Liao looked at Long Ji with a smile, "Okay, I'll come to see you again in a few days, no need to send it." ”
Long Ji didn't say a word.
Ji Liao smiled and walked out of the cave.
Long Ji looked at Ji Liao's distant back, suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly shouted, "Wait!"
Ji Liao stopped and turned to look at Long Ji, "Anything else?"
Long Ji took a few steps forward and slapped the storage bag on her waist, and a snow-white streamer flew out and hovered in the air and landed in her palm.
Ji Liao took a look, but saw a diamond-shaped stone appear on his palm, the surface of this stone was pure white color, wisps of mist surrounded it, and the moment it appeared, an extremely cold breath immediately spread, and the cold air continued to pour out of it as if it was substantial, sprinkled on the ground, and soon covered the two of them with a thin layer of frost.
"This is..."Ji Liao glanced at the stone and asked suspiciously.
"This is a piece of 10,000-year-old ice, the spiritual power of the Desolate West Fire is too strong, holding it may help you. Ryuji said.
Ji Liao thought about it, and didn't delay reaching out to take it, as soon as the 10,000-year-old ice was in his hand, an extremely cold aura immediately covered his entire palm, and in an instant he felt a burst of numbness in his palm, and then a layer of white frost spread in his palm, and quickly spread towards his arm.
Ji Liao was taken aback, and hurriedly ran the exercises to resist this cold air.
The spiritual power instantly dissolved the white frost, and Ji Liao looked at the 10,000-year-old ice in surprise, "I can't imagine that this 10,000-year-old ice has such power, even our monk's body can be frozen, where did you get it?"
Hearing this, Long Ji glanced at Ji Liao with a strange look in her eyes, "I don't know if you still remember, the cold pool near your small wooden building." ”
Ji Liao was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he remembered that when he was still a disciple of the outer sect, the strange cold pool near that residence, "You mean..."
"That's right, this 10,000-year-old ice was obtained at the bottom of that cold pool. Ryuji said.
"I see, I didn't even realize that there was a treasure nearby. Ji Liao nodded and said.
"Put it away, I'm not around you here, you must be a hundred points careful. Long Ji stared at Ji Liao and asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, wait for my triumphant return to marry you. Ji Liao laughed, walked out of Long Ji's cave, called the snot wolf, flew and sat on the back of the snot wolf, Ji Liao turned around and glanced at Long Ji again, waved his hand at Long Ji, and then flew into the air.
Seeing Ji Liao's figure getting farther and farther, Long Ji hurriedly ran a few steps and shouted into the air, "You must come back, we are waiting for you." ”
