Chapter 102: The Pa.s.sion of Nie Ling’s Parents in the Nie Family of Central Plains
He did not immediately consume the true understanding of spells to learn this secret technique.
The place and the situation in front of him was not a place to learn spells, no matter what.
He slightly moved his mind and chose the word ‘no’. The secret technique was also stored in his imprint s.p.a.ce.
Lei Liang’s face was a little pale. Only by giving the ancestral secret technique to others could he survive. One could imagine how bitter his heart was right now.
He looked at Su Yi slightly and said faintly, “I hope that you will keep your word and let me live.”
After which, he walked to the side as though he had accepted his fate. Currently, his little life was hanging in Su Yi’s hands.
If Su Yi were to go back on his word, he would at most be able to resist for a moment before disappearing from this immortal path.
No one knew how he died, and no one would feel sorry for him. Lei Liang’s back was facing Su Yi. He wasn’t looking at him. He was gambling.
He was betting that Su Yi was not the kind of person who would go back on his word.
But after a while, he did not see any movement from the person behind him. Lei Liang understood that he had made the right bet.
As soon as he turned his back, Su Yi looked at Lei Liang’s desolate back and sighed in regret. Then, his body moved slightly and turned into an afterimage as he left the place.
The scary thing was, as he left, he did not cause any movement. Even the wind in the air did not change much. The Footloose Illusionary Body Technique was just that terrifying.
At this moment, Su Yi had already left that place. Although he was not a good person, he was not a bad person either. Since he had promised to let him off, he would not go back on his word.
Just as he was hurrying towards the Chengguang mountain range, Nie Ling also followed Su Yi’s trail and caught up.
He saw a gust of wind rustle past and stopped. Then, he looked at Nie Ling who was hurrying over from afar and called out, “fellow Daoist Nie, this way!”
When the latter heard that it was Su Yi calling out to her, she was slightly startled. Then, she saw him not too far away from this mountain range.
Immediately, she revealed a light smile, and her feet once again exerted force towards Su Yi’s location.
The beautiful figure asked with a light smile, “fellow Daoist Su, where did you go?”
Her brows were raised, and her beautiful phoenix eyes blinked. Her gaze when she looked at Su Yi was filled with curiosity.
Su Yi’s sudden burst of speed had given her a small fright. When did Su Yi’s speed become so fast? However, since she was so shocked, it also made her curious.
Her gaze swept over Su Yi’s body, as if trying to see something. However, the person in front of her was still the same as before, and she was unable to see any changes.
However, when she looked at him, Su Yi felt uncomfortable all over and could only ask, “what’s wrong? What’s on my body?”
He looked a little puzzled. He did not know why Nie Ling looked so strange today, but he could not tell what was strange about her.
However, what he did not expect was that Nie Ling actually walked up and said, “well, you have a leaf on your body.”
As she said this, she gently found a dry leaf on Su Yi’s body. She gently twirled it with her fingers, and the leaf fell with the wind.
Then, Nie Ling took two steps back and gently turned around. Her light green gauze dress swayed with the wind. She looked very happy today.
Then, she raised her head and looked at the sky, then at Su Yi.
“Fellow Daoist Su, it’s getting late. We should speed up and head to Central Plains City. Otherwise, we won’t be able to enter the city gate before nightfall.”
Hearing this, Su Yi nodded slightly. It was indeed the case. This matter had indeed taken up quite a bit of time. If they wanted to reach Central Plains City before nightfall, they had to speed up.
The two looked at each other and smiled. Then, the true essence on their bodies circulated, and they began to return to the mountain path from the Chengguang mountain range.
The two figures began to speed up, heading toward the center of Central Plains City.
…
Time flew by and the scorching sun turned into the setting sun.
In the blink of an eye, the blazing sun that was originally hanging high in the sky fell into the endless sea to the west.
The setting sun that shone on the entire sky of the great wastelands had dyed the entire sky into a faint red glow.
At this moment, they were standing in front of a huge city gate that was over a hundred feet tall and was made entirely of hard boulders.
Two figures appeared on the main road. The setting sun had pulled their figures a little longer, but it did not affect their temperament. One of the male cultivators had an imposing bearing, and his eyes flashed with determination.
Beside him, a graceful figure slowly followed. Even with a veil covering her face, it could not hide her graceful and elegant figure.
These two were Su Yili and Nie Ling, who were rushing from Horizon City to Central Plains City. After they sped up, they did arrive at Central Plains City before sunset.
In their eyes, the magnificent city gate was one of the city gates of Central Plains City. The city gate was still wide open. Two rows of soldiers were lined up on both sides, guarding their posts.
Looking at Central Plains City, which was just inches away from them, Su Yi sighed.
“Finally, I’m here.”
After circling around for more than two months, from the beginning when they thought of Shangyang City to Horizon City, many things had happened.
Soon, they would step into a new city and write a new story in this city.
Looking at this magnificent city gate, Nie Ling’s face under the veil seemed to turn red. She turned around and said to Su Yi softly, “let’s go.”
“Go where?”
Hearing Nie Ling’s words, he was a little confused. Originally, he had planned to find an inn to stay in Central Plains City.
However, Nie Ling’s next words made him dumbfounded.
Seeing Nie Ling turn her head away, her expression contained some panic. He could only hear her use a faint and subtle voice to say.
“Come to my home.”
Deng–
Like a sudden change in the style of a painting, Su Yi’s figure seemed to have been petrified. He was stunned for a long time.
Nie Ling, her home?
F*ck, how come he had never heard Nie Ling mention that her home was in this Central Plains City?
Seeing him like this, Nie Ling found it a little funny. Then, she slowly walked in front and said, “I didn’t tell you before that our Nie family’s head office is in Central Plains City, so my family will naturally be here.”
Hearing this, Su Yi also nodded slightly. The head office of the Nie family’s trading company was in Zhongzhou City, so it was very normal for Nie Ling’s family to be in Central Plains city.
However, why did they say that they wanted to develop in Central Plains City? Furthermore, they wanted Nie ling to be the representative of the Nie family.
He did not know that although the main branch of the Nie family was located in Central Plains City, it was extremely difficult to develop further in this city that was filled with rich and powerful families.
This was why there was the Nie family branch in Horizon City. One day, the branch of the Nie family would fill the entire great desolate and Central Plains.
