Chitose words

Lu Shangque slowly climbed up the steps without using any of his inner strength, just like an ordinary person who didn't know any martial arts.

He just relied on his feet and climbed to the top step by step from bottom to top.

In the past, every New Year's Day, if His Highness stayed at Shentai Palace to celebrate the New Year, he would accompany her and watch the stars, admire the moon and set up formations to pray with her in the high tower and temple of Shentai Palace.

Tonight is the day when the high priest of Nanxu prays for blessings and divination. Although Lu Shangque knows that he shouldn't, he still can't control his reason. He especially wants to take a look at the temple.

Even if he just stood outside the temple and didn't go in, he might be able to feel a bit or two of the aura she left behind back then.

Perhaps there is still a trace of the remnants of her place in that temple.

He missed her so much.

In the past two years, my heart has been filled with energy and blood, more than 700 days and nights, and countless regrets and regrets that have hurt my bones.

Especially in the first lunar month of the past two years, he felt as if he couldn't breathe and suffered severe pain in his heart and lungs, which was tearing and unbearable.

I wonder if she felt the same pain when his sword penetrated her chest.

Just like this, I was thinking wildly and my mind was empty.

I don't know why, but the further Lushangque walked up, the more panicked and depressed he felt.

He gave a self-deprecating smile, attributing it to the fact that the closer the girl got to the temple where she had spent the most time in the Shentai Palace, the more timid and ashamed she became.

That's why I feel so restless and restless.

The last nine hundred steps left are the most sacred place of Shentai Palace.

——The high-tower temple where successive high priests and goddesses prayed for blessings and gazed at the stars.

But at this moment, Lu Shangque suddenly frowned, and his eyes suddenly looked to a height hundreds of meters away!

wrong!

Why are there the sounds of two people breathing in the temple at this time?

One of them must be the high priest of Nanxu, but what about the other one? Who is it again?

Today, the high priest of Nanxu has clearly sent all the priests and Taoist boys who usually serve the gods in the temple down the mountain!

Even Cheng Hui Shaosi, a direct disciple of the high priest, had been ordered to leave the palace and take the disciples of Shentai Palace to a villa in the city to spend the New Year. These things he saw with his own eyes in the evening.

At this moment, there should definitely not be any Shentai Palace disciples wandering around the temple!

What's more, how dangerous and majestic is the site of the Shentai Palace's high tower and temple?

Even if he has half-step Void Realm martial arts skills, if he walks up tens of thousands of steep stone steps from the Shentai Palace halfway up the mountain to get here without using his inner strength, who dares to do so? Sneak into the Shentai Palace in the middle of the night when it's quieter?

At the beginning, when Lu Shangque discovered two breathing sounds near the High Tower Temple, the first thought that flashed into his mind was that someone had secretly sneaked into the Shentai Palace.

Now he is also a half-dead man with secrets and full of darkness, so he subconsciously thought that the person coming might be the person sent to Shentai Palace to find him by the young man who claimed to be his "brother" two years ago.

But after a second thought, Lu Shangque immediately denied this conjecture.

Who are the people of Nanxu?

That was the high priest of the Shentai Palace, the number one sect in the world, and one of the three top experts in the Immortal Mysterious Realm among the seven top experts in the world!

He is also the Imperial Master of Nanchao Tianchen.

How could someone who could spot him even if he was injured on the road, be able to hide it from Nanxu's sharp eyes and ears?

How could a person like Nan Xu let Xiao Xiao secretly enter the territory of Shentai Palace?

so.

Lushangque frowned slightly and thought to himself: Could it be that the visitor is a guest of the Nanxu High Priest?

Could it be that the reason why Nanxu dismissed the palace disciples today and ordered Young Master Cheng Hui to take them to Songfan to keep the New Year's Eve in Zhaoge City was to keep them away and avoid bumping into the guest so as not to disturb the guest?

What kind of distinguished guest is it worth the trouble of the Nanxu High Priest?

According to Lu Shangque's understanding of the high priest of Nanxu, Nanxu people are usually the most afraid of trouble and the most impatient of secular etiquette.

Even when meeting the emperor in person, he would often hide whenever he could by relying on the ancestral ritual of the high priest of the Shentai Palace not to kneel to the emperor.

In this case, could it be that the distinguished guests who were entertained by him with such solemnity were among the seven peerless masters in the world?

The road-scarred bird stared.

Could it be Li Pinglan, the lord of Donglin City?

Or is it Xue Kunyu, the lord of Fuji City?

It seemed that except for these two, the other top experts would not allow the high priest of Shentai Palace to receive such a cautious and solemn reception.

However, the city lord of Donglin City, "Breaking Sea Sword Immortal" Li Pinglan, and the city lord of Fuji City, "Qiankun Sword Immortal" Xue Kunyu, both seem to have cold temperaments and do not like to make friends with others.

I have never heard that these two people had an old relationship with the high priest of Nanxu in the past.

This is surprising.

and many more!

Lu Shangque suddenly thought of something and his eyes sharpened suddenly!

He had long known that Lan Suyi had a big plan, and that he had already planned to subvert the four realms! Could it be that the person coming is Lan Suyi?

Lu Shangque vaguely felt that the martial arts realm of that person was low, probably only around the Jinyao realm.

And this level of martial arts was on par with Lan Suyi's level of martial arts and was very consistent, which made it difficult for him not to doubt it!

Could it be that Lan Suyi couldn't bear it anymore?

So he was using clever words and sophistry to win the trust of Nanxu, or was he planning to take advantage of the death of His Highness Chitose to drive a wedge between the high priest of Nanxu and lure others to seek his own gain?

Lu Shangque was not worried that Lan Suyi would "sell" him and told Nanxu about his attack on the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" that day.

If he really said it, then he would like to thank him for saving him a worry.

However, what he was worried about was whether Lan Suyi had any other terrible intentions!

Lu Shangque thought of this and couldn't hold it back any longer.

He immediately raised his inner strength and leapt towards the direction of the tower and temple on the top of the mountain!

However, what is puzzling is that when he arrived at the entrance of the temple, the previous breathing sound accompanied by Jin Yaojing's martial arts realm suddenly stopped and disappeared in an instant.

It's like everything before was just his illusion and misjudgment!

Lu Shangque didn't believe in evil, he stared hard and pushed open the temple door.

Facing each other across the door, the calm and noble figure of the high priest Nanxu immediately came into view.

Lushangque couldn't help but be startled.

He glanced intently into the temple, but what was certain was that at this moment, there was no one else inside or outside the temple except the high priest of Nanxu.

Wherever he looked, except for the high priest who was as light as dust, there was not even a living creature, let alone a living person.

How is this going?

Could it be that just now he was so distracted by his thoughts and thoughts that he had some ridiculous delusions?

The cold and indifferent gaze of the Nanxu High Priest was now fixed on Lu Shangque.

He said in a cold voice: "What's the matter?"

Lu Shangque looked at him blankly.

"The high priest is the only one here?"

Nanxu's phoenix eyes wrinkled slightly, seeming to be impatient.

"This is the Shentai Palace Temple. No one can enter unless called by the high priest and the goddess. Naturally, I am the only one. You shouldn't know this rule."

Lu Shangque was stunned for a moment, then suddenly smiled with a lonely expression and murmured:

".Maybe I saw it wrong."

Suddenly his interest waned, so he turned around and walked on the moon.

Yes, that person is no longer here today. What is there to miss in this cold and lonely tower and temple?

For two years, this temple has been swept and swept every day, and it is not stained with dust. It is only empty, and there is no trace of this person.

Lu Shangque walked to his room in the middle of the mountain in a daze, but the scene and details in the temple suddenly flashed in his mind!

wrong!

Although there was no one else in the hall except Nanxu at first glance, there were clearly two tea cups placed on the table in front of the high priest!

Therefore, he did not perceive a mistake. Was the Nanxu High Priest really entertaining guests before?

Lu Shangque was slightly absent-minded and recalled the strange fragrance in the temple just now.

That seems to be the aroma of wine?

He fell into memories for a moment, and a flash of astonishment suddenly flashed in his eyes.

That mellow aroma, could it be the wine aroma of "Liangyi Niang"? !

——Although he has not smelled it for several years, he will never remember it wrong!

This wine was brewed by His Highness Chitose himself in the past. It is extremely precious. No one except Chitose himself will easily drink this wine!

As for the high priest Nanxu, he is even less of a person who has no sense of propriety and disposes of Chitose's beloved old things at will.

And on the tables in the hall, there are two tea cups filled with the aroma of wine. They are definitely not the high priests of Nanxu mourning with empty cups!

So is it

Lu Shangque’s fingertips couldn’t stop trembling with excitement!

His heart, which had been as silent as death for a long time, jumped suddenly and endlessly, with a sound like thunder and deafening!

Your Highness...

Is it you?
