Chapter 53
Chapter 53
In the dense forest twenty miles away from the palace.
Xia Yi put away the teleportation spell, and fell to the ground from the air with Ye Gucheng, saying: "I can only send the city lord here, and the next road, I hope the city lord will take care."
Ye Gucheng focused on Xia Yize, his black eyes were astonishingly bright: "Why do you want to save me?"
"Just to repay the life-saving grace of the city lord." Xia Yi said: "I once said that he will repay the life-saving grace. Now that the kindness has been repaid, there is no relationship between you and me. The road ahead is difficult, and the city lord cherishes it." . Farewell."
The light in Ye Gucheng's eyes dimmed little by little: "It's just... just to repay the favor?!"
Xia Yi nodded, then turned around and walked out of the dense forest.
He sacrificed the Taihua Shield to block Ximen Chuuxue's powerful sword just now, and then mobilized his whole body's spiritual power to cast a large-scale spell that can modify other people's memories. Ten percent of the spiritual power in his body was used up. He used the last bit of spiritual power to teleport the two of them here. At this moment, the spiritual power was exhausted, and he didn't even have the spiritual power to cast the teleportation spell to leave.
He didn't want Ye Gucheng to see his current situation, so he left in a hurry.
Seeing that he was leaving, Ye Gucheng couldn't help blurting out: "Wait a minute."
Xia Yi stopped, but didn't look back, he just said calmly: "Is there anything else the city lord has to do?"
Ye Gucheng was about to speak when he suddenly felt a piercing sword energy coming from afar.
In the next second, a tall and straight figure in white clothes appeared in front of the two of them.
Ximen Chuuxue's face was slightly cold, and a pair of star-like eyes focused on Ye Gucheng, and he said coldly: "There is one thing I hope the city lord can remember: Yi is my man. Anyone who tries to get involved will be with Ximen Chuuxue." For the enemy."
After finishing speaking, he turned his head to look at Xia Yize, and was about to ask him to come over to him, but suddenly found that Xia Yize's face was as pale as paper, and his figure seemed to be on the verge of falling, he couldn't help being surprised: "Yize?"
Xia Yi watched Ximen Chuuxue quietly, with tenderness slowly appearing in his eyes.
He wanted to walk towards Ximen Chuuxue, wanting to tell him that he was fine and not to worry, but before he could move, he felt dizzy for a while, and then his vision went dark and he passed out.
Ye Gucheng subconsciously stretched out his hand to help him, but he stopped abruptly when he reached halfway.
——Not because of Ximen Chuuxue's threatening words just now, but because...he had a full view of Xia Yize's eyes when he looked at Ximen Chuuxue.
Ye Gucheng had never seen such tender and affectionate eyes in his eyes before.
That only belonged to Ximen Chuuxue.
Thinking of this, Ye Gucheng felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if someone was stabbing his heart with a sharp needle.
Almost at the moment when Xia Yize passed out, Ximen Chuuxue's body was already lifted up.
He rushed to Xia Yize's side, and stretched out his long arms to grab that slender body into his arms before the opponent fell to the ground.
Then Ximen Chuuxue didn't even look at Ye Gucheng, turned around and swept into the vast night.
Ye Gucheng withdrew his gaze, looked down at the fish scale in his palm, feeling disappointed.
Yi Ze, after today, I'm afraid you and I will never meet again.
When Xia Yi woke up, he felt weak all over his body, as if he didn't even have the strength to lift a finger, which was the result of excessive consumption of spiritual energy.
He tried his best to open his heavy eyelids, only to realize that he had returned to Hefangzhai.
Ximen Chuuxue was sitting in front of the bed and looking at him, with no expression on his face, but a hint of joy flashed clearly in his dark eyes.
Xia Yi looked at Ximen Chuuxue, his handsome face slowly turned red.
Because he suddenly felt a little guilty.
Previously, he was only focused on saving Ye Gucheng from the palace, and he didn't have time to think about it. Now that he thinks about it, he took Ye Gucheng away in public and left Ximen Chuuxue there. This kind of behavior... seems a little inappropriate.
Although he had released a magic spell to modify everyone's memory before he left, there were many people present at the time, and they were all masters in the arena. What is the effect of modifying the memories of multiple people... He can't guarantee it himself.
At least this spell would definitely not be able to fool Ximen Chuuxue - of course he wasn't going to use it to fool Ximen Chuuxue.
Although Xia Yi has no conscience about what he has done, he still can't help feeling guilty in the face of Ximen Chuuxue who has always trusted him.
Ximen Chuuxue saw that his face suddenly turned red strangely, and thought he was unwell, so she quickly said softly: "Yi Ze, how do you feel now? Are you uncomfortable?"
Xia Yi shook his head: "Fortunately, it's just that too much spiritual power has been consumed, and some are weak."
Ximen Chuuxue said: "How can I help you recover your spiritual power?"
Long before Xia Yize fell into a coma, he used to inject internal energy into Xia Yize's body in an attempt to help him recuperate. However, although his internal energy was effective in healing, it was completely ineffective in replenishing spiritual energy. Ximen Chuuxue had to stop and waited helplessly for him to wake up. Come.
Seeing that Xia Yi finally woke up, but could only lie weakly on the bed, Ximen Chuuxue couldn't help feeling pity and distress in his heart.
"It doesn't matter to me, as long as I rest for a while, my spiritual power will recover." When Xia Yi said this, Jun blushed again, and felt a little embarrassed, but he still asked: "What is the situation in the palace? Will saving Ye Gucheng bring trouble to Wanmei Villa?"
"Yize, you don't need to worry." Ximen Chuixue said, "As long as I'm here, neither Wanmei Villa nor you will be fine."
Even today, if someone wants to touch him, he must first ask the sword in his hand if he agrees.
Xia Yi's eyes turned hot when he heard the words, and he blamed himself more and more: "It was because I was too impulsive before that I hurt you and Wanmei Villa."
For the royal family, whether it is rescuing the traitor or hiding the corpse of the traitor, it is a serious crime equivalent to conspiracy.
When he saw Ye Gucheng was in danger earlier, he made such a bad plan without thinking about it in a hurry, but now that he thinks about it, he accidentally caused trouble for Ximen Chuuxue, he should be ashamed of him.
But the matter has come to this point, and regretting it will not help, so we have to try to save it for the present.
Xia Yi decided that if necessary, he would enter the palace again and cast spells to modify the emperor's memory. Only in this way can he get rid of the bottom line and completely eliminate the hidden dangers of Wanmei Villa.
Seeing Xia Yi, Ximen Chuixue had a complicated expression, and had vaguely guessed what he was thinking, so he stretched out his hand to hold his hand, and was about to say something to comfort him, when he suddenly heard a familiar voice from outside: "Ximen, are you here?" Is it? I have great news to tell you!"
Ximen Chuuxue was already used to Lu Xiaofeng coming to harass him from time to time, he didn't feel annoyed when he heard the voice, he lowered his head and said to Xia Yi: "You rest first, I'll go out for a while."
When Ximen Chuuxue went to see Lu Xiaofeng, he didn't expect any good news from him.
Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaofeng actually brought him good news.
——Because Xia Yi was successful in rescuing him, the emperor decided not to pursue the matter of "Ximen Chuuxue took away the corpse of the traitor Ye Gucheng".
Although Ximen Chuuxue's swordsmanship is superb, it is impossible for him to compete with the court with one sword. It is naturally a good thing for him to end this matter like this.
Although he was a little unclear about the rumor that he took away Ye Gucheng's body, but when he thought of the large spell that Xia Yize released earlier, he immediately understood what was going on.
After Lu Xiaofeng reported the happiness to Ximen Chuixue like a magpie, he started to carry forward his spirit of gossip again, stroking those two mustaches and continuing to break the news: "But I see the emperor's expression, it seems that he doesn't quite believe Yin Xian's report. And I heard from reliable sources that he also sent a lot of scouts to investigate the movements of all suspicious people around the capital... It seems that Ye Gucheng's troubles are not over yet, the emperor will not persevere in pursuing him all the way to Baiyun City."
Facts have proved that Lu Xiaofeng's crow's mouth appeared again, and later the emperor actually sent a fleet to attack Baiyun City - this will not be mentioned for the time being.
In short, the turmoil of the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City has completely subsided, and Ximen Chuuxue and Xia Yi can live a peaceful life again.
After this battle, Ximen Chuuxue's position in the Jianghu became more and more detached, and he truly became the unsurpassable sword god in the hearts of all sword-wielding people in the Jianghu, and the eternal idol in the hearts of all passionate young people who have just entered the Jianghu.
And Ximen Chuuxue himself, through the battle with Ye Gucheng, once again broke through the bottleneck of swordsmanship and rose to a higher level.
This battle also made him understand a truth: not only ruthless people can wield an invincible sword.
Feelings may indeed make people weak, and may become a person's shackles.
But that's only for the weak-willed.
At the level of Ximen Chuuxue, instead of becoming his fetters, feelings can sublimate his swordsmanship.
——A truly ruthless person will never be able to use soulful swordsmanship.
Now Ximen Chuuxue's pursuit is no longer the so-called invincible.
Because being invincible is not the highest state of swordsmanship.
The highest state of swordsmanship is to surpass oneself and step into the realm of harmony between man and nature.
Time flies like an arrow, and in a blink of an eye, winter goes to spring, and spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and half a year has passed in a blink of an eye.
In the past six months, Ximen Chuuxue and Xia Yize's life has been very peaceful, even Lu Xiaofeng's bad friend who often caused himself troubles and then came to trouble Ximen Chuuxue didn't come to make trouble for them.
Xia Yi always likes to be quiet, and Ximen Chuuxue is also used to living in seclusion. In the past six months, the two have sang together, not discussing swordsmanship, or exchanging ideas with each other. Improved a lot again.
As for his spiritual power, after half a year of recuperation and hard work, he has already returned to the level of his previous heyday, even better than before.
During the period when he was busy meditating and practicing Qi to restore his spiritual power, Ximen Chuuxue was not idle either. Except for the three meals a day, he could see him, and the rest of the time was almost in retreat.
Xia Yi knew that he was obsessed with comprehending the highest state of swordsmanship, so he didn't take it to heart, so the two of them were busy with their own business in the past month, and rarely saw each other except for eating during the day.
This afternoon, Xia Yi was meditating on the soft couch as usual, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, accompanied by Ximen Chuuxue's familiar voice: "Yi Ze, can I come in?"
These days, Ximen Chuuxue had never looked for him at this time, Xia Yi felt suspicious, and quickly asked him to come in.
Ximen Chuuxue pushed the door open and walked into the house, when he saw Xia Yi, he said, "Yi Ze, let me show you something."
