Chapter 3 - Chapter 3

"Come on!" Xiao quickly pulled him to trot in front of the halo. Kaelan Emberlyn was vigilant and instinctively reached out to test for the first time - he could feel the strong suction, and the cold wind blew from the opposite side.

"I'll do it." A Xiao obviously knew that he did not know the key spells. She erected the sword of charm and dragged the tip of the sword in her palm. With the murmur in her mouth, a blue spiritual light began to spread out from the palm of her hand, like a spiritual snake drilled into the halo.

"Sword Array · Waking of Insects." With a fierce scold, the sword of charm swung up amazing spiritual power, causing the thunder clouds in the sky to gather and roar down!

Then, the opposite side of the halo made a crisp sound, and at the same moment, the air in front of him also began to have mirror-like cracks!

However, the scene behind the "mirror" made the two take a breath of cold air together. Through the cracks, the towing snow-capped mountain appeared in front of them again! They have crossed the ancient woods from the seaside. In principle, they should have come to the outer grass sea, but why did they return to the snowy mountains now?

The mirror gate array is usually divided into two worlds inside and outside. Everything in the world inside the mirror is an illusion, and in addition to making people lose people in the world outside the mirror, its grass and tree should be real.

A Xiao looked back at the way they came, and his eyes were full of consternation - the ancient forest disappeared, and they had been walking on this steep snowy road!

The other party's mirror gate array is actually fake inside and outside!

Before she could think about it, Kaelan Emberlyn stopped her behind, and the Fire Sword left a sharp sword wind in place to surround the two people in the middle.

He looked serious and looked nervously into the air.

This barren snowy road is only enough for one person to walk, and next to it is a bottomless cliff. A group of strange "birdmen" floated above their heads, flying to the top of the mountain with huge wings. When they noticed that the two people suddenly appeared out of thin air, they stopped and watched alertly.

The human-faced bird's wings are golden, the hands are slender, and the index fingers are like claws. This is another branch of the double-headed golden-winged bird, which belongs to the golden-winged race of aliens.

"Ah... it's human!" I don't know who took the lead in speaking, causing the birds to boil and chatter: "Look, it's human!"

"It's the uniform of the military pavilion. He is from the military pavilion!"

"It's not human beings, it's not human beings. No one will come to the mountains so stupidly!"

"It's a human. Your nose is too bad."

"It's not human. I don't smell it. Your nose is too bad!"

"Throw it down and throw it down. Whether they are human or not, throw it down!"

"Throw it down and throw it down!"

The flock of birds resonated and began to dive to attack the two, and the huge wings were cut off at the moment they touched the sword wind.

Although Kaelan Emberlyn is not afraid of danger, he also knows that he can't fight hard. The golden-winged clan is a branch of the double-headed golden-winged bird, which has evolved into a bird-man. If the golden-winged clan comes to the deep mountains to participate in the lark conference, then their number may have to be hundreds!

Most importantly, he didn't know if there were other aliens and spiritual beasts around.

While resisting the brainless attack with a fire sword, he whistled loudly into the sky. If they had successfully escaped from the Mirror Gate Array, then his undead bird should be nearby.

Sure enough, after a while, a huge white bird rushed like lightning. It was three times the size of the golden-winged clan. The sharp claw blade easily tore the wings of the golden-winged clan. The birds fled everywhere in shock, but they still said, "It's an immortal bird!" Everyone, run, it's an immortal bird!"

"Ah! It's a perching bird in the ring of the forest! Thank you!" Xiao hurriedly stretched out her hand, and the bird was also abnormally gentle. She gently pecked the palm of her hand with her beak.

Kaelan Emberlyn paused for a moment and remembered that A Xiao was indeed able to speak the language of birds. The immortal bird was originally given by the teacher, and he was renamed the immortal bird just to avoid suspicion.

The bird monster dispersed very quickly and disappeared in the depths of the snowy mountain in a blink of an eye. Kaelan Emberlyn was relieved, touched the wings of the immortal bird, and said, "It's okay. Let's go back to the city first. It's dangerous in the mountain. We can't stay at night."

Without waiting for A Xiao to answer, another strange voice came faintly--

"Are you leaving now? The young cabinet owner of the military pavilion?

"Who?" He clenched his sword nervously, and suddenly the snow in his eyes. The voice came from the bottom of the cliff, with a little laziness and disdain, and even yawned lazily. Then he continued to say, "What's wrong with the Mirror Gate Array in the strange mountain? I saw the young cabinet master of the military pavilion coming and came alone. Should I say that you have good courage, or... I don't know the sky is thick?"

A huge shadow appeared in the depths of the cliff where the bottom could not be seen, and the true face gradually appeared up little by little. It turned out to be a bloody python! He spit out the snake and looked at the two leisurely.

Kaelan Emberlyn took a breath of cold breath and immediately realized that he had encountered not an ordinary snake - the rootless land took the northern Tianyu City as the imperial capital, and built four major cities of Yudu, Dongming, Jialuo and Yangchuan on all sides. In its territory, there are also seven alien forbidden places: the mountain of the devil, the sea of blue, the empty holy land, the forest of glacier, the snow plateau, the valley of confinement and the sunset desert. It is said that there are seven gods left behind before falling into the sky, and there are also three holy spirits and three demons living in it.

The rootless land can speak human language, and there is only one bloody python, that is, one of the three holy spirits, the snake fairy, entrenched deep in the devil's mountain.

The big snake winded up. It was 100 meters long but moved flexibly. It climbed all the way along the cliff. It didn't seem to be hostile to the two, but it smiled maliciously: "Are you looking for someone? Earlier, I saw a man thrown into the mountain by a double-headed golden-winged bird. The man was carrying a sword spirit, which was somewhat similar to that in your hand..."

His huge eyes showed a light of expectation, and the tip of his tail stood up and pointed to the distance: "The place that fell in happens to be the center of the lark conference. I haven't seen him come out all day long. I don't know if he is still alive!"

"Brother..." A Xiao rubbed her clothes sleeve anxiously. The snake fairy immediately spit out the snake letter to approach her, and then tempted, "The weapons of the two of you are very similar. Do you go together?"

Kaelan Emberlyn pulled her unhapproperly and asked, "Don't talk nonsense. Where is he?"

"Hey hey, the young master went alone. I'm afraid something will go wrong." The snake fairy was neither tight nor slow, and casually provoked, "You have done a lot of great things in the past few years. The aliens in the mountains hate you to the bone."

"The person you are looking for is always looking for." Kaelan Emberlyn glanced at Xiao and coughed.

The snake fairy shook his tail happily. Naturally, he knew what he was worried about and said proudly, "Then I'll send you in, but if you encounter any danger when you get inside, don't blame me. I don't want to tie down with the master of the military cabinet."

"Then thank you, Lord Snake Fairy." Kaelan Emberlyn is naturally a symbolic salute. The snake fairy snorted coldly, and the tail of the python lifted the two people, and then rose into the air and fell into the depths of the snowy mountains.

The temperature in the snowy mountain plummeted below zero. Kaelan Emberlyn looked at A Xiao worriedly. The climate on the mountain of Senzhihuan was very cold, and the disciples would also learn enough mental methods to resist the cold, but at this time, her clothes were still wet. Don't she really feel cold at all?

He touched his clothes. Obviously, he escaped from the sea, but it was not wet at all.

Since he came to the Devil's Mountain, strange things have made him strange.

Kaelan Emberlyn held A Xiao's hand in his arms to warm her, but he found that the palm of the other party was hot. He was shocked and said doubtfully, "Aren't you cold?"

"It's not cold. I'm not afraid of cold since I was a child." Xiao didn't think anything was wrong. In turn, he put his hand in his arms and smiled, "Are you cold? You have been back for many years, and you can't use the heart method of the Ring of the Forest.

"But your clothes are still wet, and they will freeze for a while." Kaelan Emberlyn pointed to her body to remind her.

"No... it won't freeze." A Xiao quickly pulled his collar and looked panicked, "I won't feel cold when I study martial arts."

Kaelan Emberlyn wanted to say something more, but the snake fairy kept giggling and turned his head: "It turns out that the young master of the military pavilion also has such a tender side. Is the Kaelan Emberlyn I've heard for so many years fake? If you care about this girl, how many people are still alive now, right?

There was something in the snake fairy's words, but he didn't say it clearly. A Xiao looked carefully at Kaelan Emberlyn. Although he looked unhappy, he just squeezed his lips and didn't reply.

In fact, she heard a lot about Kaelan Emberlyn when she was still in the ring of the forest. Now it seems that those horrible rumors seem to be true?

Is it impossible? She didn't want to believe it from the bottom of her heart, but it was not easy to ask directly.

The snake fairy saw her hesitation and touched her with a snake. Suddenly, her eyes sank, turned around and asked in a low voice, "What kind of mind is this girl practicing?" The smell on your body makes me a little familiar. That's the unique smell of the Lingfeng family in my rootless land.

"The Lingfeng family?" A Xiao repeated the words of the snake fairy and looked at Kaelan Emberlyn. The other party frowned and seemed to be attracted by these words. She then asked, "Is it also a kind of alien?"

"Well, forget it." The snake fairy nodded, and then shook his head again. "There were six spirits, six saints, twelve immortals and forty-eight ancestors in the rootless land. Although the Lingfeng family does not belong to it, it is more respected as the head of the lark. Now there is only one person left. I don't know if the adult will come to this year's lark conference."

"That adult?" A Xiao said curiously, "In the ring of the forest, it is very rare for spiritual beasts that can speak human language, and it must be very unusual for you to call a 'adult', right?"

"The little girl's mouth is quite shap." The snake fairy praised and remembered the man, and the python's eyes were full of longing. "She hasn't had any news for many years. The last time someone saw her was in the imperial city of Tianyu eight years ago, as if it was for something..."

"For the extermination case of Tianzheng Mansion." Kaelan Emberlyn took the words of the snake fairy, and his expression became horrible when, and even his tone seemed to be like an ice cave. "Eight years ago, there was an extermination case that shocked the government and the opposition in Tianyu Imperial City. Tianzheng Mansion was destroyed overnight, and the scene was burned by the fire, leaving no clue. Except for the two sons who were not in the house that day, the rest, together with the servants, were spared."

"Well... there is such a thing. It is also amazing among the larks." The snake fairy also realized something. He closed his mouth knowingly. Kaelan Emberlyn snorted coldly, but continued to say, "The fire burned for a few days and could not be extinguished. It was the phoenix fire of the Lingfeng family."

"That being said, she must not have done anything about Tianzheng Mansion. Lord Fengji won't do that kind of thing." The snake fairy knew what he wanted to say, but he still unswervingly defended the adult.

Kaelan Emberlyn sneered and said disdainfully, "She is a person who can't appear once in decades or hundreds of years. Why did she suddenly appear in front of my house? It's your business that you respect her as the head of the lark. For me, she is also an ordinary alien.

"Humph." The atmosphere smelled of gunpowder in an instant, and the snake fairy simply said bluntly, "The only one who survived that day was your brother. Isn't he more suspicious? Why don't you ask him what's going on?

Kaelan Emberlyn stared at the snake, but couldn't refute it - he was still in the forest when the Tianzhengfu extermination case occurred. Why didn't the eldest brother stay at home and where he went? This has always been his doubts.

However, as the only survivor, the eldest brother has been silent about this matter.

Xiao did not disturb the dialogue between the two. Thinking about it carefully, eight years ago, Kaelan Emberlyn did terminate the practice of the Ring of the Forest ahead of schedule because of the shock at home.

She silently remembered what she had heard about the rootless land in recent years - three pavilions and two palaces for a while, which is the basic form of the rootless land continent now.

The Mo Pavilion, the Military Pavilion and the Mirror Pavilion respectively govern the politics, military and economy of the rootless land. The Ash Fortress takes the Star Palace as the highest-level sacrifice place, and the Danzhen Palace as the highest medical center. Above the three pavilions and two palaces, it is the "bipolar meeting" composed of the six sons of the royal family, the four capitals and the three city lords led by the current Emperor of heaven.

These politicians, officers, businessmen and nobles joined hands to turn the whole island into dolls in their hands.

The center of the Ash Fortress Tianyu City is where the royal family is located, which is surrounded by a royal gate. Out of this gate is the aristocratic area, where the Emberlyn family is located, the Tianzheng Mansion is there.

After she always knew that Kaelan Emberlyn was a rootless nobleman, the first time she saw him was a completely different feeling. He was dressed in bright and handsome clothes, which made her a little confused in an instant.

From childhood to adulthood, she only had an endless white robe and blue background in her eyes. Her brothers and sisters looked like heaven one by one. Talking and laughing were all about the things that people who learned magic should have, and this boy who came to the mountain around the forest alone from a distant island to ask for a sword, he was so different!

However, Kaelan Emberlyn rarely talks about his family, but that must be the most important thing in his heart, because he often stares alone in a small family emblem in the middle of the night.

Xiao lowered her head and took out an old badge in her sleeve. This silver-black badge was half the size of her palm. Although it looked old, it showed a kind of coldness to the bone.

In the middle of the badge, a strange beast that she can't name is engraved, like a white tiger, with a pair of black wings, and a pair of eyes carved with precious sapphires.

"This...you take it with you?" Seeing what was in the palm of her hand, Kaelan Emberlyn's eyes lit up, swept away the previous gloom, and finally smiled brightly.

"It's your thing." Seeing him cherish and stroking the family emblem, A Xiao couldn't help but think of that year. It was one day two years after she started, and the whole day of life was coming to an end. She packed up the spirit of the sword and was about to return to the sword peak. At this time, Kaelan Emberlyn's figure suddenly appeared in front of him in a strange way. He stood upside down, his feet hung on the protruding rock, and his body leaned forward as much as possible.

Shocked, A Xiao quickly ran forward and reached out to pull him back: "What's wrong? What are you doing? It's easy for you to fall like this. I can't save you if you fall.

Kaelan Emberlyn turned over and stood up, but his eyes looked straight at the cliff. He gritted his teeth and said, "My family emblem has fallen. Is there a way down here? I'm going to get it back."

He actually went to the depths of the cliff to find a family emblem? If such a small thing falls, the brothers and sisters who have learned swordsmanship are helpless, right?

"Hey, wait a minute!" Seeing that he was really ready to find a way, A Xiao grabbed him and said, "You, don't mess around. It's a cliff below. I don't know what beast there are! If it's really such an important thing, I'll ask the perching bird to help you find it. What does your thing look like?

"It's just such a big... round one, engraved with a beast that I don't know what it is." He stroked anxiously, but the blushing look made her cover her mouth and smile.

This person with gimples is still a little cute?

I still remember his expression when I helped him find the home emblem at that time. He was obviously happy to death or pretended to be calm, and said "thank you" to her awkwardly.

It was after that incident that Kaelan Emberlyn began to really look at her as a junior sister. After being surprised and her swordsmanship grew rapidly, his face finally no longer had the puzzlement and disdain she showed on the day she started.

Such a peaceful life lasted until eight years ago, when bad news came from the rootless land, and the Emberlyn family was destroyed overnight.

She didn't have time to know anything more. Kaelan Emberlyn had packed all his bags. Except for the fire of the sword, he had no intention of taking anything away. He changed his clean white clothes and combed his hair. An instant was like a time went back to his first time.

She didn't keep it, and she couldn't say a word.

And the only thing left is the badge in her palm now. When she parted eight years ago, he personally gave her the badge.

Knowing that he might not see him again, he still handed over the most important treasure to her.

The snake fairy stopped in mid-air, and the tip of the snake pointed down: "It's a thousand walls, and further ahead is the Wanling Peak, which is the center of the Lark Conference. The man fell near there yesterday. You have to go in and find it by yourself."

The two looked at it at the same time, where the clouds overlapped, and the moonlight reflected from the clouds, which was very amazing.
