Chidu——
When Jiang He ordered his men to escort Zhao Yu, the city lord of the trial grounds, to appear before Ze Lin, Ze Lin was painting.
No one spoke to disturb Ze Lin.
Ze Lin stopped writing after an incense stick had burned.
Looking at the dying Zhao Yu, Ze Lin smiled gently and said, "It's been a long time, Lord Zhao."
"Have we met before?" Zhao Yu thought he had never had any interaction with this person before.
Ze Lin felt it was normal that Zhao Yu didn't remember him.
At that time, he was just an unknown nobody, and even his name was given to him by Song.
In addition, Song was very conspicuous and liked to protect him. During that time, he always followed Song. It was normal that others only saw Song's brilliance and did not see him.
He never thought of competing with Song.
"Whether we knew each other before or not is not important. Now I only need the city lord to do me a small favor." After Ze Lin's previous plan to lure the enemy into a trap failed, his mood had been very unstable.
He was not a bloodthirsty person; he was also a very patient person who could endure humiliation for many years for the sake of a goal.
But only Song...
If he hadn't descended to the mortal realm and hadn't appeared, that would have been fine.
Song happened to have been to Chidu, but he came for Aoqian.
Even if it could be anyone, why did it have to be Aoqian?
Ze Lin wasn't afraid that Ao Qian would come back and take the throne; he was just resentful. Why did Ao Qian deserve Song's favor and protection?
These closest refuges once belonged to him as well.
Even after he broke ties with Song, and even though Song no longer regarded him as a close friend, he never really thought about breaking ties with Song.
He had been waiting for an opportunity to reconcile with Song, even if he could never express the beautiful thoughts in his heart to him. He just wanted to be with Song like before, where he could see him smiling when he looked up and hear him singing when he looked down.
However, all of these have now become unattainable dreams.
Ao Qian!
"What instructions does the Demon Lord have?" Zhao Yu's expression darkened slightly.
Perhaps because he was seriously injured, Zhao Yu did not let his guard down and remained on edge.
Ze Lin didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "I wouldn't dare to offer advice, I just want to borrow your life."
Jiang He, standing to the side, looked away from the scene before him.
She always knew that, apart from that person, the Lord would never show mercy to anyone else.
After dealing with Zhao Yu, Jiang He saw Ze Lin fiddling with Zhao Yu's primordial spirit, looking thoughtful.
Jiang He remembered that there was another person waiting for the master to come and see him, so he reminded him: "Master, Immortal Ye and her eldest disciple are still waiting for you."
“It’s gone.” Ze Lin waved his hand.
Jiang He hesitated, but ultimately gave up.
After Jiang He left, Ze Lin's gaze returned to the unfinished painting.
...
The Trial Grounds.
Song Xiwei rested her chin on her hand and said, "Ye Xiaoning and Yan Ye have been so mysterious all these years. What secrets are they hiding?"
Xiao Zhuang was quite surprised. "Why are you suddenly interested in them? Isn't the most important thing right now that the young lord is in trouble again?"
Song Xiwei glanced at Ao Qian, and thought, "Oh no!"
This time, it seems that faking his death won't work for Aoqian.
At the critical moment, Song Xiwei managed to make her move in time, but the power was too great. Ao Qian had sealed off the demonic magic, and without a strong defensive spell, he was directly knocked unconscious.
Song Xiwei quickly led Aoqian away. The whereabouts of Zhao Yu, the city lord of the trial grounds, are currently unknown. This place is very complicated, with various forces at large. She felt that Aoqian had gained some experience this time.
That's about enough.
However, just as she was about to take Aoqian away and turn back, Aoqian opened his eyes in his arms.
His tone was stern: "What are you going to do!"
