Chapter 4 - Chapter 4

After putting down the two, the snake said goodbye.

The footprints on the snow are deep and shallow, as if there are many different creatures passing by here. These footprints are in the same direction - Snow Peak Heights.

The undead bird obeyed its master's order and continued to wait in the sky. Kaelan Emberlyn held A Xiao tightly and said carefully, "Follow me, it's dangerous in the mountains. Don't get lost. I and I, I..."

He hesitated for a moment and didn't know how to open his mouth for a moment. He saw his concerns. Xiao then said, "Do you want to say that you have a holiday with the aliens in the mountain? I saw it a long time ago.

"Um..." Kaelan Emberlyn coughed awkwardly and was shocked by the sound. A few little rabbits jumped out of the snow next to him. He jumped a few times in front of the two of them, with a look of fear in his eyes and ran far away.

Xiao looked at the rabbit and then at Kaelan Emberlyn, blinking: "Even the little rabbit is so afraid of you. Are all the rumors I've heard in the past few years true?"

"Who did you hear that?" Kaelan Emberlyn frowned and asked her. Before she could answer, she said to herself that she felt a little funny and took the initiative to answer, "Actually, I can also guess who it is. She also told Aaron about the end of the sky, right?"

"Well, madam is actually kind-hearted..."

"Do you do bad things with good intentions?" Kaelan Emberlyn didn't think so. The "wife" in A Xiao's mouth was the current sister of the Emperor of Heaven and Mrs. Mingqi, one of the members of the trial group. In the early years, when A Xiao's mother, Mrs. Shui, traveled to a rootless place, she became good friends with Mrs. Ming Qi, and the two often exchanged letters.

The trial group was originally the center of power. Although Mrs. Ming Qi was not involved in politics, many sensitive things could be known at the first time. This is the end of the sky.

Xiao didn't agree at all and retorted, "But Madam said that it was a very important person for Aaron!" If he doesn't tell him now, he will regret it for the rest of his life.

"Do you know who Aaron is looking for?" Kaelan Emberlyn asked back, and sure enough, she was speechless and shook her head and sighed, "He must not have told you before he came, did he?" What are you doing here? The rootless land is very dangerous.

"Just tell me, won't you?" Xiao said, "If you don't come back to me, won't you let me come by myself?"

"You will be embarrassed if you know it." Kaelan Emberlyn touched her head helplessly and sighed.

The spirit of the sword resonated at the same time, interrupting the conversation between the two. Kaelan Emberlyn also instantly regained his vigilance and pulled A Xiao into the deeper snow next to him.

Not far ahead, two people came side by side, quietly as if they appeared from the air. The two talked and laughed. One was like a ghost in white, with long ears and light blonde hair. He was a human man transformed by mountain elves. Next to him was a woman in a blue long shirt. Her water-blue hair was like the waves of the blue sea. They seemed to be walking, but their feet did not hit the ground, but they were more like ghosts drifting.

Not a human - Kaelan Emberlyn and A Xiao looked at each other and immediately found an abnormality. If the feeling between the spirit of the sword is not the same, then the other party must not be a normal human.

After a few steps, the two suddenly paused alertly and turned around. Looking closely, their skin was pale and transparent, and their eyes flashed with fine light.

The man took the lead in approaching. He only put on a snow-colored single coat, which looked extremely thin. The woman followed. When she saw them, she unexpectedly greeted them. She enthusiastically took Kaelan Emberlyn's hand and said happily, "It's a rare thing. This is the first time for the Lord of Shao Pavilion to come to the Lark Conference, right? Do you want me to lead the way? Ouch! I also brought a new friend!"

Kaelan Emberlyn shook off her hand and finally recognized the two people. There were seven guardians of the seven alien forbidden places. The two in front of them were Edas, the guardian of the Devil's Mountain, and Saif, the guardian of the Sea of Biluo.

"Oh, it's still so unkind." Saifi returned to Edas and stuck out her tongue at the two. If she had her appearance alone, she looked like a girl in the age of cardamom. However, she had fallen into the sea for thousands of years, and no one knew how long these mountain ghosts and monsters had lived.

Being able to meet them here seems to be very close to the center of the Lark Conference.

Edas was obviously not as friendly as Sayfi. He stared at his lively and cheerful companion, straightened his face, and said with a straight face, "The lark conference never welcomes human beings, let alone the people of the military cabinet."

"I'm not here to attend your lark conference." Kaelan Emberlyn also asked bluntly, "Last night, one of my companions was thrown into the mountains by a double-headed golden-winged bird, and he hasn't come out yet. I don't know if you have ever seen them?"

"Double-headed golden-winged bird?" Edas was thinking with his chin on his back, and Saifi couldn't wait to come over. "It's the group of birds and monsters who like to cause trouble again. When we came, we heard the fox demon clan talking along the way, saying that they had met a surviving elemental clan! But his dress is very strange, as if he came, with a sword. Are you looking for that person?

"Where was he thrown?" Kaelan Emberlyn hurriedly asked. Saifi flapped his big eyes and continued to say, "Elemental clan was killed by the military cabinet 18 years ago, but now it's hard to have a survivor. Will he be an acquaintance of the young cabinet owner?"

Elemental family? Extermination? A Xiao was shocked and looked at Kaelan Emberlyn in astonishment.

She is not particularly clear about the background of her brother Aaron. She only knows that he was saved to the ring of the forest by the leader of Yunyou. He was seriously injured and has been recuperating from the owner of the kingfisher hall, one of the four rings. Therefore, although the senior brother is a disciple of the leader master, he also has a deep understanding of the true biography of the owner of the kingfisher temple. The swordsmanship is completely different from Kaelan Emberlyn.

He rarely mentions his own affairs, but this seemingly gentle big brother is more indifferent than Kaelan Emberlyn.

This time, the brother said that he had found his brother who had been separated for many years. He originally insisted on coming alone, but the master was worried, so he was allowed to follow him.

"Saifi." Edas called back his companion, as if he was unwilling to do more entanglement, and pointed in the direction. "That man followed the fox demon clan into the mountain. Since he is a descendant of the elemental clan, it will not be dangerous to enter the Xuefeng Heights, but it is better for you two to leave as soon as possible."

"Is your brother a descendant of the elemental clan?" Xiao repeated the words of the mountain ghost in surprise, and her face changed greatly.

She often heard Mrs. Qi mention some things about the elemental clan. Her wife seemed to be extrapersonally concerned about this clan. Almost every time she went to the Ring of the Forest, she would talk about it to her mother. She always thought that it was just an insignificant gossip. It turned out that Brother Aaron was a survivor of the elemental clan?

The elemental clan is a race that has been killed by the military pavilion, and the recent generations of cabinet owners of the military pavilion are all members of the Emberlyn family.

She couldn't help taking a deep breath and didn't dare to think about the relationship between the two brothers.

Kaelan Emberlyn silently squeezed her hand, which was indeed a relationship he had never wanted to talk about.

The elemental people lived on the coast. They were originally born from the blessings of the sea. They were distributed in the territory of Yudu and were good at singing and dancing. Many years ago, a beautiful woman even fascinated the current king and was taken to the palace and given as a princess.

The relationship between human beings and aliens in the rootless land was already tense. However, the mood and mood of the Emperor of Heaven added fuel to this complex relationship. The princess's name is Paula, the leader of the elemental family. Two years after entering the palace, she gave birth to a daughter.

This newly born baby girl is different from her sisters. Not only did she not get the title of "princess", but she was strictly monitored as soon as she was born. This situation continued until the age of five. The Emperor of Heaven suddenly gave Paula to death in the name of "defiled the royal bloodline", issued a killing order, and destroyed the elemental family.

It was the military cabinet who was responsible for executing the order. At that time, the head of the cabinet was his father, Locke Emberlyn.

Since he came to the ring of the forest on the first day and saw the blue mark on the other party's neck, he had recognized that his brother was a survivor of the massacre, and the brother must have recognized that the dress he was wearing was the uniform of the military cabinet.

However, the two of them didn't say it out, and even became their own brothers.

But there is not only one of the survivors of the elemental family.

After he returned to the rootless land to take over the military pavilion, he finally had the power to investigate some old things of adults. The leader of the elemental clan imprisoned at the end of the sky was Lina, the daughter of the princess. Another boy named "Valentin" was sent to the "King's Water Prison" in the Ash Fortress.

The Emperor of Heaven seems to be doing secret experiments with aliens, and the more detailed information is beyond his authority.

"Let's go, Saifi." Edas pulled his companion's sleeve impatiently, but Saifi was a little reluctant. The ghost floated to A Xiao, raised her cheek and kissed her, and said with a smile, "This girl is so beautiful!" Is it the sweetheart of the young cabinet master?

As she spoke, she deliberately wanted to rub the other party's chest, and her fingertips touched her body. Saifi's face suddenly darkened, stepped back a few steps in surprise, and blurted out, "Is this... the breath of the Phoenix?"

She looked at her fingers in disbelif, where there was a flame that people's eyes could not see clearly. It was burning but it was a cold to the bone.

"Let me see!" Adas was also shocked and grabbed his companion's hand. The two coincidentally looked at A Xiao again with surprised eyes - she was tall, holding a long blue sword, and also dressed in blue, with long black hair hanging down to her waist. She was indeed a very beautiful woman.

The two looked at each other silently and noticed a little abnormality - did her eyebrows really look like the adult?

Adas coughed awkwardly and suddenly changed his attitude: "This is thousands of people outside the wall. If you want to enter the Xuefeng Heights, you must know how to build an overpass. You two might as well accompany us, so that the spirit beasts in the mountain will not hurt you."

Kaelan Emberlyn knew that there must be other purposes for the two to be attentive, but at present, this is indeed the only way to enter the Xuefeng Heights smoothly. He pulled A Xiao and reminded him in a low voice: "Follow me and don't stay away from me."

"Uh-huh." Xiao obviously saw the abnormality of the mountain ghost and monster, and couldn't help holding his chest.

There is like an invisible flame here, burning endlessly.

Several people went straight up the road and walked for a long time. After bypassing a mountain wall, there was suddenly no road in front of them. The opposite peaks were stacked and towering into the clouds, and the moonlight permeated from the thin stain.

Adas motioned them to stop and walk forward alone until he reached the edge of the cliff. He raised his hands and waved his sleeves, and there was a cold wind on the empty cliff.

Looking closely, countless small ice beads floated in the wind, which gradually condensed into an overpass and spread straight to the opposite mountain.

It's really a flyover!

A Xiao looked in front of her in amazement and didn't know how to say anything.

At this moment, the moonlight was covered by thicker clouds, and the mountain suddenly darkened, and there were ghost fires around. Looking around, there were countless overpasses suspended in the air, which was very spectacular!

The pedestrians on the overpass are bustling, but in order, and there are all kinds of birds and beasts flying near the bridge.

"This is the overpass." Although Sayfi was still smiling, her tone was obviously not as frivolous as before. She pulled A Xiao and walked to the bridge and sighed, "Hundreds of ghosts walk at night, and hundreds of beasts gather. This is a ten-year feast in a rootless place!" Unfortunately, the alien you can see now is less than one-tenth of what it was before it fell into the sea, and I don't know how long the lark conference will last.

The voice of Haixian had a strong loneliness and ethereal hovering, causing pedestrians on the overpass to stop one after another and then salute respectfully.

Kaelan Emberlyn is also the first time he has seen such a scene. Since he entered the main military pavilion, he has hunted down many aliens under the order of the Emperor of Heaven. However, compared with tonight's scene, the 100 aliens he has seen are just a drop in the ocean.

They have such an amazing number and such a huge race, but they are still under the pressure of human beings, narrowing the scope of their lives to the Devil's Mountain in Yudu and the Valley of Inclusion in the Eastern Underworld.

Is it the excessive greed of human beings, or is the nature of aliens too weak? At least among the hundreds of aliens he has come into contact with, all of them are weak races, even the elemental family of his brother Aaron.

After all, the rootless land can't tolerate weakness.

"After crossing the overpass, it is Xuefeng Heights. Master Shao's clothes are too eye-catching." Adas kindly reminded that Sayfi was even more direct. Her palm turned over the waves of the sea and wiped it along Kaelan Emberlyn's uniform. The sea was immersed in the skirt, and the original black and gold uniform was suddenly replaced with a water-colored tshirt.

"Oh, it's so beautiful." She happily appreciated her masterpiece and blinked at A Xiao, "How about it? Is it better than that team uniform?"

"Well, it's good-looking, but it looks a little like a disciple of the Ring of the Forest." A Xiao gave a thumbs-up to Saifi, and actually took the opportunity to praise him.

"What's the use of changing clothes with blinds? It's not that they don't know me. Kaelan Emberlyn shook his head helplessly. As the current head of the military cabinet, his usual duty is to tour the four major cities around the rootless land, and with several large-scale tasks, his face has long been unknown.

"Then let's have another mask." Edas followed his words, took out an antler mask from nowhere, put it on him with his backhand, and pointed to the end of the bridge. "I don't know how many aliens and spiritual beasts are there. It's better for everyone to be careful not to let the wolf into the tiger's mouth. After all, if something goes wrong with you in the mountains, it's not good for everyone if the military cabinet comes to come to the door and ask the blame."

Knowing that the other party is just joking, Kaelan Emberlyn simply doesn't bother to reply. Even if the military pavilion is rootless, the gathering center of aliens such as Devil's Mountain and Valley of Confinion is still rarely involved. How can there be any sin?

Xiao took his hand and helped him put on the mask. Then he said seriously, "You can follow me now."

"You have to wear it, too." Kaelan Emberlyn winked at Edas, "She is human, and it's dangerous for her to go in."

Adas and Saifi looked at each other, and then took out another antler mask and handed it to Xiao.

They knew in their hearts that this woman should not be needed. There was an amazing breath of phoenix in her body, which should have belonged only to the phoenix clan, the head of the lark!

"I'm going to close the bridge. You can stand firm." Edas reminded that Saifi quickly took the arms of the two people, and the ice beads under his feet immediately turned into water fog in the city, and Haixian fell slowly on the water fog.

Countless overpasses around them also began to disappear, and all kinds of rare larks fell on the snow peak highland. The thick clouds dispersed, and the moonlight began to tilt down again.

Xuefeng Heights is the highest peak of the Devil's Mountain. The terrain here is unexpectedly flat, forming a huge natural round platform. The cold wind is isolated from the mountain. Hundreds of people have been sitting here, drinking and talking with homemade wine. The spirit beasts lie on the periphery and shake their tails lazily to rest, and all kinds of birds in the sky are also chattering.

The arrival of mountain ghosts and monsters caused a sensation. After a while, a few people gathered around them. Kaelan Emberlyn quickly pulled A Xiao to hide in a place where there were few people. Saifi glanced at them and quietly made a goodbye gesture.
