Monarch of Evernight: Go home at ninety-eight

bsp;The war here is over, but Qianye has no plans to return to the Western Continent with the Zhao Clan's army. Black Current and Dark Fire are his foundation, and there is also Night Eye there.

When saying goodbye to Zhao Jundu, Qianye was a little worried that he would have to waste some words. Surprisingly, Zhao Jundu, who had always been strong, did not express any objection this time.

Qianye also learned a secret about the Zhao Clan from him. Only the children of the Zhao Clan who had participated in the great sacrifice ceremony were considered the real core members. They need to leave a trace of their bloodline on the ancestral temple formation. If they die outside, the family will get the news, and if necessary, the family can also find their whereabouts through secret methods.

Hearing this secret, Qianye's heart jumped slightly. He first understood how the Zhao clan found the place where Zhao Weihuang and Ye Ji lived in seclusion. Then he realized another problem. Since the ancestral temple array can record and Searching for bloodline aura, whether it has other functions.

However, Zhao Jundu gave Qianye protection within the clan in the name of being under his command, but at first he did not intend to let him participate in the war in the name of Zhao clan, even though Zhao clan's position on the military merit list was in jeopardy at that time. Now that I think about it, maybe it wasn't because he underestimated Qianye's combat power, but because Zhao Jundu had guessed something or was he worried about something?

Think again about Youguo Gong’s actions that may seem ordinary but actually have profound meanings. Whether it is the undisguised appreciation in front of others or the fact that he mentioned unintentionally or unintentionally in that in-depth conversation that he did not have the right to inherit the clan leader, he did not like too much. Qianye, who lives a complicated life, can only smile bitterly.

When the imperial fleet left, Qianye put away all his thoughts, turned around and boarded the off-road vehicle, started the engine, and headed all the way to Black Current City.

The Yongye Continent, which had just ended a war, was quite peaceful. Qianye returned to Blackstream City smoothly without any twists and turns. Although there are still traces of the raging war everywhere inside and outside the city, most of the dilapidated city defenses have been repaired. The city is extremely lively and crowded. In the city that could originally accommodate 100,000 people, more than 200,000 people were squeezed in. .

Since the beginning of the **** war, Blackstream City, located within the Iron Curtain, has become an important place. A large number of mercenary hunters who went out to fight used this place as the most forward supply base. In the middle and later stages, after the formation of the organized army, residents of rural villages, towns and settlements had to flock to the city to take refuge.

The Black Current was guarded by Song Zining. It gained such a great reputation after the Siege of the City and the Battle of Tuobian. In the later stages, almost no dark race was willing to come and die. As a result, more people took refuge in Blackstream City, and various trading merchants also used this place as a transit point, making the market more prosperous.

Song Zining didn’t know what he was thinking about, but he basically refused to refuse anyone who came, and would put them all into the city as long as they paid taxes. Fortunately, he had already prepared and saved a large amount of food in advance, otherwise it would be difficult to survive the later stages of the **** battle.

When Qianye drove to the foot of Heiliu City, the city walls were full of busy workers. Not only were they repairing and strengthening the city walls, they also built two more turrets. Looking at the scale, they could already place fortress cannons.

The original fortress cannons in Blackstream City have been specially modified by Nangong Xiaoniao. The artillery fire can cover all sides of the city. With two more fortress cannons, the defense power has been significantly enhanced. If Viscount Luther, the demon descendant from the **** battle, were to attack now, he would probably suffer heavy losses just by shooting down the cannons in the fortress.

Qianye drove into the city along with the people. The soldiers guarding the city gate were meticulous. Even when they saw the Imperial Regular Legion logo on the car, they stopped him. They didn't let him go until he saw clearly that it was Qianye in the driver's seat.

The streets in Heiliu City were also noisy. Song Zining had attracted dozens of large commercial banks at first, but now when he looked up, he saw a dazzling array of signboards, and the number of new large and small commercial banks was at least several times that of the past. Just walking through one main street, I saw six or seven stores being renovated and will be opened soon.

Heiliu City is lively and lively, but the order is not bad. Patrolling dark fire warriors can be seen from time to time. Regardless of the rebellious mercenary hunters or the children of aristocratic families who always have high standards, they all looked in awe when they saw the dark fire warriors and did not dare to collide with him at all.

This is all due to Song Zining. This seventh young master used an iron fist to curb the chaos during the **** battle. Anyone who dared to stir up trouble, no matter who it was, was basically killed. Even the direct descendants of the Nangong family were killed several times. In the end, no one dared to risk their lives to test the seventh master's methods.

Although the human settlements in the wilderness outside have been basically destroyed, the Black Current at this moment cannot be regarded as a place with only one city. In the **** battle, the Empire and Yong Ye fought to a draw, but the Black Current war zone was different. In the early stage, Song Zining was invincible and swept across the dark army. In the later stage, Qianye penetrated several war zones in the dark kingdom alone. By now, almost no one on the Yong Ye side was willing to come. Black stream comes to die.

In the dark kingdom bordering the Black Current War Zone, most of the land in the Earl of Stuka, the Spider Demon, fell under the control of Dark Fire. Even the castle of Earl of Spider Demon was captured, leaving only two or three viscounts. The collar was also divided into various places. The reason why these small territories can still be preserved is because Anhuo's troops are already stretched thin and are not enough to digest so much territory, so they have not taken action for the time being.

However, when Qianye saw the recruitment notices everywhere on both sides of the street, he knew that Song Zining's ambitions did not end here. Otherwise, the war was already over, so why bother to expand the army so hard? The next battlefield of the empire is on the floating land in the void, and Dark Fire has no way to participate. Neither Qianye nor Song Zining had that much money to transport Dark Fire, which was close to three divisions in size, into the Void Floating Continent.

The entire Blackstream City has turned into a large construction site, but the Dark Fire headquarters is still the same, with no changes. Qianye turned around a block and saw Anhuo's rather majestic gatehouse from a distance, but he did not go there, but went straight back home.

Compared with the last time, there are some detailed changes in the small courtyard. The most eye-catching one is the addition of a big tree. The shade of the tree covers most of the courtyard, making the environment particularly quiet and peaceful.

Yetong was sitting in the courtyard reading a book, with a plate of fruit beside him.

Qianye sat down at the table, Ye Tong raised his head and glanced at him, smiled slightly and said, "Back?"

"Well, I'm back."

Yeye Tong smiled again, "Just come back, I'll go cook."

Qianye hurriedly said: "You'd better forget it, I'll do it!"

Yetong glared at him fiercely, snorted, and followed Qianye into the kitchen.

The eldest lady of the Vampire Clan has surprisingly no talent in cooking. With the exact same ingredients and cooking procedures, the food she makes is "different", and no matter how much she practices, it has no effect. Qianye has given up teaching and will definitely do it himself as long as he has time.

While putting away the ingredients, Qianye asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Why is there another tree in the yard?"

Since Song Zining’s Three Thousand Floating Leaves Art has become more and more sophisticated, Qianye has cast a shadow on the leaves, and then on the tree. It always feels like there are pairs of eyes hidden in the lush branches and leaves.

When Qianye asked, Ye Tong said nonchalantly: "The Seventh Young Master of the Song Dynasty sent someone here. He said it can block the sun and purify the air. I asked him to plant it in the yard."

Qianye was immediately shocked, "Did Zining send it?"

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

Qianye felt something bad in his heart and asked: "Have you felt anything inappropriate recently?"

Yeye Tong thought about it seriously, shook his head and said, "No."

"When you go out, do you feel like you are being watched in secret?"

This time Ye Tong nodded and said, "Yes."

Qianye immediately gritted his teeth and said angrily: "It seems like this kid's skin is itchy!"

Yeye Tong looked confused and asked: "What are you talking about?"

Qianye felt something was wrong and asked carefully: "Who is peeking at you?"

Yeye Tong said without thinking, "Nangong Xiaoniao."

"Huh? Is it her?" This answer was beyond Qianye's expectations.

"Well, she came over and peeked several times, but I ignored her. Then one night, she tried to sneak into my room."

"This" Qianye didn't know what to say. Nangong Xiaoniao was a genius in terms of force arrays and machinery, but he was always a little confused at other times.

"I didn't know what she wanted to do, so I didn't care about her and just watched quietly. But" at this point, a smile appeared on Ye Tong's face, "but she actually wanted to climb in through the ventilation skylight. The window was too small. She barely squeezed through it and got stuck in the middle."

After hearing this, Qianye inexplicably thought of Nangong Xiaoniao’s turbulent chest. With such a figure, it does seem difficult to pass through the skylight.

"Then what?" Qianye asked with interest.

Yetong looked at Qianye with a half-smile, and said slowly: "Then of course I have to get her off. Well, it's still a little difficult, three buttons on my clothes fell off."

Qianye's heart suddenly jumped, and he felt something was not good. Why are there only three buttons on this coat that are missing?

However, Qianye has been through the storm for a long time, and the expression on his face has not changed. He said oh and asked again: "What happened next?"

"It didn't matter anymore. No matter what I asked, she didn't say a word. That little blush made me want to take a bite!"

This is indeed Nangong Xiaoniao's character. Considering the embarrassing situation at that time, it was good that she did not faint immediately.

Qianye thought that even if this matter was over, Nangong Xiaoniao would not be able to do anything earth-shattering. With her temperament, if she fell into Ye Tong's hands, she would only be bullied.

As for what Ye Tong did next, whether he let him go or gave him a lesson, Qianye didn't care and didn't intend to know. Nangong Xiaoniao's thoughts about Qianye are known to almost everyone in the upper echelons of Anhuo, so naturally it is better not to mention this kind of thing.

However, Ye Tong did not end the topic, and added: "The window was too small. When I got her down, I accidentally scratched some skin. Speaking of which, the smell of her blood was a bit unusual. ”

Qianye couldn't help but feel slightly nervous. He touched Ye Tong's black hair and asked, "Have you been thirsty recently?"

Yeye Tong glared at him and said dissatisfiedly: "Do you think I am one of those guys with impure blood? People who have awakened the blood of the ancestors will not be thirsty for blood at all. Except in major ceremonies, I will not He can drink blood. No matter how much blood he drinks, it is useless and tastes bad. ”

Qianye secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although he already knew some relevant knowledge from the Blood River inheritance, he was still worried about Ye Tong. Now that he heard her say it himself, he felt a little relieved.

If Ye Tong needs to drink blood, there is no way out. On the Evernight Continent, there are a large number of bandits who can be killed no matter how many times, as well as a large number of prisoners on death row, and there are as many slaves as you want.

However, in Qianye's view, compared with humans, those powerful creatures, including various ferocious beasts and werewolves and spider demons, can provide a large amount of blood essence and are rich in high-quality force.

It’s just that as a highly intelligent race, the vampires, like the human race, also have something called faith, which is often rooted in their hearts since childhood and has simply become a part of life. Qianye once tactfully mentioned to Ye Tong that he could try to get her some blood essence from the werewolf spider demon, as well as from powerful alien beasts.

Unexpectedly, Ye Tong reacted particularly strongly when he heard the werewolf blood, and almost fell out with Qianye. In her opinion, being stained with werewolf blood was tantamount to the greatest humiliation. Seeing Ye Tong's reaction, Qianye wisely shut his mouth, and then he went to join the battle in the imperial army.

Now that we are reunited, I think that Ye Tong has not absorbed blood essence for a long time. Although she was not thirsty for blood, Qianye was still a little worried. Although the dark races have their own cultivation methods, plunder is still the fastest way to grow in strength, especially the vampires and spider demons. In contrast, demons are similar to humans, and cultivation is more important than predation.

Qianye asked again and again, until he confirmed that Ye Tong would have no problems at least in the near future, and then he felt a little relieved.

At this time Ye Tong said: "That Nangong Xiaoniao is a little strange, you have to be careful about her."
