Chapter 970: Waiting Without Regrets
In the early morning, on the vast Xixia Plain, a strange tent shaped like a yurt stood in the early morning light.
This tent looks like an ordinary traveler's tent, but the sinister aura it exudes tells the world that this is the famous No. 9 Yan City on the mainland.
Different from the bustle of the past, No. 9 Yan City looks a bit depressed today. That is because the two founders of No. 9 Yan City, Ghost Emperor Wuzhong and Yan Jiu, are missing. Although the news has not spread, Yan
The operation of the city will be more or less affected.
A snow eagle with rich feathers fluttered its wings and flew into the tent.
The moment Snow Eagle passed through the tent, a majestic city appeared in front of him.
I saw a ghostly figure flashing out quickly, about to catch the snow eagle.
But who knew that the snowbird, which looked like a low-level spiritual beast, suddenly moved quickly and evaded the attacker's grasp.
"Gee, Yan Che, it seems your skills are not good enough. You can't even catch a small bird."
With laughter like silver bells, a slim figure slid down from the city wall.
She was a young girl, with a bit of heroic look in her brows. She raised her hand, her red lips moved, and made a series of sounds like bird calls, and the snow eagle landed on her shoulder inquiringly.
There was a letter tied to Snow Eagle's feet.
"Aguduo, things of unknown origin are not allowed to enter the city, including birds. It's not like you don't know that some people of unknown origin have appeared in the city recently."
Yan Che muttered with some dissatisfaction.
Compared with the time when he first followed Ye Lingyue, Yan Che's blood from the Central Plains seemed to have suddenly revived in the past few years. He has grown a lot taller, like a giant tower, and his facial features are like sculptures.
The stone statue has sharp edges and corners, and its whole body exudes a cold air.
It was this momentum that allowed Yan Che to successfully surrender the Yan Yi envoys in Yan City after arriving at No. 9 Yan City.
Now, he has become a rare and capable general under Lan Cai'er, responsible for the defense of No. 9 Yan City.
"Yan Che, don't look like a frightened bird. This is not an ordinary snow eagle. I have communicated with it. It is here to deliver a message. This is the messenger snow eagle from the Lone Moon Sea." Aguduo has since obtained
After passing on the Beast Cult, his mastery of mainland languages became more and more proficient. If he was not careful, he would use idioms to hurt Yan Che.
When Yan Che heard this, a hint of excitement appeared on his stone-carved face.
Lone Moon Sea, isn't that where the master goes?
Since the last fight, when Master Feng died, the master has been in a state of despair.
Yan Che saw it in his eyes and felt sad secretly. He wanted to be able to comfort his master, but he also knew that he was not qualified to comfort his master. He could only bury his love deep in his heart.
Yan Che's reaction was seen by Aguduo. A complicated look flashed in her eyes. She cursed Mu Mu in her heart, ignored Yan Che, and took Xue Ying to find Lan Cai'er.
The Snow Eagle in Lone Moon Sea is very spiritual.
Although it could understand Aguduo's words, if it could not see the recipient in person, Snow Eagle would rather commit suicide than hand over the letter.
In the city lord's mansion, Lan Cai'er held some account books.
She is checking these account books. Since Yan Yanjiu left, she has replaced Yan Jiu and is responsible for the matters related to the City Lord's Mansion.
Lan Caier's belly is already very big, and her body becomes tired more easily.
After watching it for about an hour, she had to struggle to support herself and walk a few steps in the study.
As soon as he stood up, he saw Aguduo walking in with a snow eagle.
"Sister Cai'er, why are you looking at the account books again? Didn't I say that you are about to give birth and you can't move around. In a few days, Feng Mansion will send someone to check these account books."
As soon as Aguduo entered the door, he made a fuss and called out.
She hurriedly stepped forward and supported Lan Cai'er.
"I won't give birth for nearly a month, so it won't be a problem."
Lan Caier smiled.
Aguduo was also afraid that she would be bored alone in Yancheng No. 9, so she came here from the ancient forest.
"You sit down first. Gu Yuehai is here to deliver a letter to Snow Eagle. It should be a letter from the master."
Before Aguduo finished speaking, the snow eagle flapped its wings and landed in front of Lan Cai'er. Its light blue eyes stared at Lan Cai'er for a long time, and then it raised its talons and signaled
Lan Cai'er untied the letter from her paw.
Lan Cai'er heard that it was Ye Lingyue's letter and hurriedly opened it.
Earlier, she only knew that Ye Lingyue suddenly wanted to go to Guyuehai to study with a teacher, but she didn't know why Ye Lingyue wanted to go.
Ye Lingyue's letter was written in a hurry, telling Lan Cai'er about Little Emperor Xin and the reason why she wanted to go to Guyuehai. The letter also wrote about Ye Lingyue's recent situation. In addition, she also informed Lan Cai'er that
Cai'er, you must be careful about your health. If the little emperor Xin can recover her soul in Guyuehai, she will definitely find Yan Jiu.
After reading Ye Lingyue's letter, Lan Caier's hands were still shaking slightly.
She suddenly started crying.
"That's great, Feng Xin is not dead, he is alive again."
Lan Cai'er has always felt guilty about Feng Xin's death. She always felt that it was because she took Yan Jiu under her wing that Feng Xin was killed.
These days, she said nothing on the surface, but when she thought of Ye Lingyue leaving without saying goodbye, and how grief-stricken she looked that time, she felt uncomfortable.
Another point is that although Lan Cai'er didn't know that Feng Xin and Wu Zhong were the same person, she vaguely knew that Yan Jiu's disappearance was related to them.
Before Yan Jiu left, he once said that he was sorry for her and that he had to help his good brother. He asked Lan Cai'er to wait for him to return.
As long as Feng Xin is still alive, whether he is Little Emperor Xin or Feng Xin, Yan Jiu will definitely keep his promise and come back.
Lan Cai'er pressed the letter tightly against her swollen belly and said softly.
"Baby, did you hear this? This is a letter your godmother wrote to you. She said that your godfather is still alive. She also said that your father will come back sooner or later."
In the belly, the baby's heartbeat was steady and powerful, as if it was comforting Lan Cai'er, and also seemed to be hoping that its father would return safely one day.
Outside the study, Yan Che listened to Lan Cai'er's words, feeling happy and a little depressed at the same time.
The happy thing is that the master finally got over it, but the sad thing is that deep down in the master's heart, there is only that man from the beginning to the end.
Yan Che smiled bitterly, but at this moment, a city guard walked in.
Cheng Wei's eyes were a bit anxious. He spoke several times in Yan Che's ear. After Yan Che listened, his face suddenly changed. How could it be him?
He hesitated and knocked on the study door.
"Madam, there is someone outside asking to see you."
