Chapter 139 Confusion
Chapter 139 Confusion
"Your Majesty, there's still no news about Yao'er???"
Ning You's face no longer had the exquisite makeup she used to have, and she even looked very haggard. She was completely different from the dignified and noble girl she used to be.
"not yet."
Xuanyuan Hongtai was a little more stable than Ning You, but his furrowed brows still revealed his true emotions at the moment.
"I shouldn't have agreed to let them go out and train alone. It's been almost half a year, and there's not even a single letter of safety. Something must have happened."
Ning You cried softly, wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief from time to time.
Xuanyuan Hongtai was already upset enough, and Ning You was still crying there, which made Xuanyuan Hongtai even more upset.
But when he saw Ning You's haggard face, Xuanyuan Hongtai couldn't say any words of blame.
Xuanyuan Xingyao suddenly disappeared, and no one was more worried than Ning You.
"Don't worry, our child is a child of destiny. With God's protection, he will be fine."
Xuanyuan Hongtai held Ning You in his arms and comforted her softly, but he didn't know whether this comfort was for Ning You or for himself.
Perhaps it was Xuanyuan Hongtai's comfort that Ning You finally stopped crying, but the worry on her face did not diminish in the slightest.
"What did Duke Wuling say? Has Xiaojing sent back any news?"
After wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes, Ning You slowly regained her usual dignity and asked Xuanyuan Hongtai.
"No, Xiao Jing's relationship with the Duke's Mansion is rather distant, as you know. Ever since he went out with Yao'er to train, there has been very little news sent back."
Xuanyuan Hongtai shook his head.
"It's a pity that Han Gongsheng has been in seclusion. Otherwise, Han Gongsheng might be able to find them."
Ning You sighed and said.
"Father, Mother, my Seventh Brother has returned with news. He said he and Xiao Jing are already on their way back and will be in the Imperial Capital in seven days at most."
Just when Xuanyuan Hongtai and Ning You fell into silence, Xuanyuan Leng suddenly rushed in.
At this time, Xuanyuan Leng had completely lost his usual composure. Before Xuanyuan Hongtai could scold him, he heard Xuanyuan Leng say that Xuanyuan Xingyao had returned with news.
Now, this most noble couple on the continent could no longer hold back, and Xuanyuan Hongtai even snatched the letter from Xuanyuan Leng's hand.
When I unfolded the letter, I found that it was indeed sent by Xuanyuan Xingyao.
The content of the letter was as brief as ever. It didn't even say where he had been in the past six months. It only said that he was on his way back and would be able to reach the imperial capital in seven days at most.
But even such a simple letter made Xuanyuan Hongtai read it over and over again, and finally handed it to Ning You with red eyes.
Ning You was more emotional. After confirming that it was really the message sent by Xuanyuan Xingyao, she started crying again.
Ning You's eyes are actually very beautiful, but the continuous crying in recent days has made those beautiful and watery eyes red and swollen, making her look a little funny.
But although everyone present smiled, they were not laughing at Ning You. Instead, they were happy that their most beloved child (younger brother) had finally brought back the news that he was safe.
"Your Majesty, Yao'er hasn't lived in the Prince's Mansion for a few days since it was built. Although someone cleans it every day, it has been unoccupied for almost two years. I am a little worried and want to go and take a look in person."
After Ning You cried with joy, her former composure finally returned.
Thinking of Xuanyuan Xingyao’s prince’s mansion, Xuanyuan Xingyao has only lived there for a few days since it was built.
It has been almost two years since he last came back. Although there are servants cleaning and maintaining the place every day, Ning You is still a little worried.
However, as the queen, Ning You must get Xuanyuan Hongtai's approval before she can leave the palace.
"We should go and take a look, but it's getting late today. Zitong, you can go tomorrow and just be back before sunset. But I'll have to trouble Zitong to go incognito. Leng'er doesn't have anything important to do tomorrow, so you can go with your mother."
After hearing Ning You's reminder, Xuanyuan Hongtai also realized that Xuanyuan Xingyao would be back soon, and the prince's mansion needed to be cleaned from top to bottom.
However, if Ning You left the palace with the Queen's guard of honor, it would make too much noise, and those old guys in the Censorate would probably make a lot of fuss, so Ning You had to go out incognito.
As for why Xuanyuan Leng was asked to accompany him, it was mainly because Xuanyuan Hongtai was worried about Ning You's safety.
"Your Majesty has already granted me a favor by allowing me to leave the palace. I am only traveling incognito, so it is not an injustice at all. Besides, I have Leng'er with me."
It would take a few days for Xuanyuan Xingyao to come back, so Ning You was not in a hurry. Moreover, Ning You knew how bad his current situation was. If Ning You really had to go now, he would not be able to accept it.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will definitely protect your mother."
Xuanyuan Leng knew that Xuanyuan Hongtai asked him to go with him because he was worried that Ning You would not be able to bring too many bodyguards with him when traveling incognito, and it would be bad if he was assassinated.
"Zi Tong has always been so considerate. He has become quite haggard during this period. When Yao Er comes back, I will make him apologize for your crime."
Xuanyuan Hongtai patted the back of Ning You's hand and started joking in a rare good mood.
"Then I will be waiting for you. Your Majesty, please don't feel bad when the time comes."
Knowing that Xuanyuan Xingyao ignored him, Ning You joked back in a good mood.
The heavy atmosphere in the imperial study for days finally dissipated, replaced by relaxation and joy.
When Ning You, accompanied by Xuanyuan Leng, went to Prince Han Xi's mansion in a low-key manner to take charge, Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing were riding on the Ice Phoenix Demon Luan to the imperial capital.
Compared with half a year ago, Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing have undergone earth-shaking changes.
Half a year ago, Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing accidentally stepped on a formation and were teleported to an unknown space.
After arriving at that unknown space, the two lost consciousness immediately.
In fact, they were not completely unconscious. Both of them knew what was happening to them, but they just couldn't control their bodies.
At first, both of them were a little panicked, but soon they showed surprise, and finally became calm. This series of psychological journey seemed to take a long time, but in fact it only took one day.
Until now, Xuanyuan Xingyao and Nangong Jing still don’t know where they were teleported to in the past six months, but they are both very grateful to the teleportation array and that unknown space.
Because there, the two of them accidentally obtained a legacy, and it was because of this legacy that the two of them disappeared for half a year.
The inheritances obtained by the two were different. Xuanyuan Xingyao obtained the inheritance of a warrior.
The inherited skills were much more profound than all the skills Xuanyuan Xingyao had practiced before.
During the past six months, Xuanyuan Xingyao spent most of his time transforming the spiritual power in his body, completely transforming his skills into the "Heaven-Slaying Battle Art" that he obtained through inheritance.
It is said that this Heaven-Slaying Battle Technique can even destroy the world if practiced to the end. Xuanyuan Xingyao does not know whether it is true or not, but this also shows the power of this technique.
Xuanyuan Xingyao had a premonition that even if he cultivated to the level of a War God, he would not be able to cultivate this Heaven-Slaying War Art to the highest level. Even in this world, he would never be able to cultivate to the highest level.
Xuanyuan Xingyao thought that many powerful people with god-level cultivation had disappeared from the continent after living in seclusion for many years.
There were rumors before that they ascended to a higher world, but no one had ever actually seen anyone ascend, so Xuanyuan Xingyao had always been skeptical. But now maybe there really is a higher world.
After practicing the Heaven-Slaying Battle Art, Xuanyuan Xingyao's evil spirit was refined a lot. It was truly refined, not just suppressed.
Because he refined some evil spirits, Xuanyuan Xingyao's cultivation level was also greatly improved.
Directly promoted from the middle stage of War Sect to the middle stage of War King, a whole realm.
If this gets out, the entire continent will be shaken.
Throughout history, there have been many people who have elevated their realm due to circumstances.
However, there are only a handful of people like Xuanyuan Xingyao who can directly improve to a whole realm. Although he is not the only one, he can also be counted on one hand.
Like Xuanyuan Xingyao, Nangong Jing also received an inheritance. However, how can one describe his inheritance? It was said to be cultivated by a summoner, but it didn't seem to be...
The martial arts that Nangong Jing obtained from the inheritance is called "Beast Heaven Art".
The beast of the orcs, the sky of the heaven and earth, if you practice this technique to the final level, you will be able to command the magical beasts of the entire world.
Nangong Jing couldn't even imagine what kind of uproar would be caused if this martial arts technique were to be spread out.
At first, Nangong Jing thought that this technique was tailor-made for summoners.
But later, Nangong Jing discovered that there was a prerequisite for practicing this technique, which was to have the affinity to attract the monsters.
This affinity for Warcraft alone has already excluded all other summoners.
It can be said that up to now, no other summoner except Nangong Jing has been able to possess it, not even Han Yan.
So when Nangong Jing first saw this sentence, he was surprised, because he also thought of the strange affinity in him.
Rather than saying that this technique was tailor-made for the summoner, it would be more accurate to say that it was tailor-made for him.
Like Xuanyuan Xingyao, Nangong Jing transformed his skills into this Beast Heaven Art after receiving the inheritance.
In fact, Nangong Jing’s current path is different from that of the summoners on the mainland.
The summoner's level is no longer of any use to Nangong Jing, because he has no way of making a conclusion based on the level.
As long as Nangong Jing wanted, he could even summon an entire army of monsters.
The more he transformed his skills, the more Nangong Jing confirmed his previous guess that his affinity might really be brought from a previous life.
Even this Beast Heaven Art was very likely the one he had practiced before, because when Nangong Jing practiced the Beast Heaven Art, he was very relaxed, as if he had practiced it once before.
"Ayao, I should be happy to receive this inheritance, but I feel increasingly confused. For some reason, I always feel as if all this was arranged by someone."
When they were about to reach the imperial capital, Nangong Jing's face showed some confusion, and he looked at Xuanyuan Xingyao and said.
"Regardless of whether or not someone arranged all of this, all we can do is work hard to improve our cultivation. As long as our cultivation is high, no matter what the person behind the scenes wants to do, we will always have a chance to resist. No matter what, I will always be here."
Xuanyuan Xingyao looked at Nangong Jing's bewildered face, and felt a slight pain in his heart. He didn't care that they were almost in the imperial capital, and he directly took her into his arms and comforted her softly.
