Against the Gods

"Ah?" Yun Che's cold words made Lan Xueruo stunned for a while, and then nodded directly, "If you want, of course you can, after all, no matter what the result is, participating in the qualifying battle is a good experience. The experience can also lay a good foundation for participating in three years later. However, the royal family can only have three people to participate, and these three people need to be selected through a fair competition, and I have no absolute right to decide. Therefore, Junior Brother Yun If you really want to participate in this year's qualifying competition, you must enter the top three in the Inner Palace Tianxuan Ranking within half a year."

Yun Che is currently replacing Murong Yi in the ranking of the Sky Profound Ranking, ranking the 73rd, and stepping from the 73rd to the top three within half a year, anyone who hears it will feel that it is impossible... and no one One would believe that Xue Lang and the thirty-sixth place Feng Baiyi on the Profound Sky Ranking had already died in Yun Che's hands.

In other words, Yun Che's current strength is at least above the seventh place.

"I know." Yun Che nodded, and looked at Lan Xueruo softly but firmly: "I will fight for the qualification to participate in the qualifying battle, and this time, I am not participating for the sake of experience, but because of my extremely serious thoughts. I want to participate... So, Senior Sister, next, I will be away for a while."

"Leave?" Lan Xueruo's eyes moved, and then she hurriedly grabbed Yun Che's hand: "Where are you leaving? Why are you leaving?"

Yun Che held Lan Xueruo's small hand with his backhand and said softly, "Senior sister, do you still remember what I said to you that night? I said, I will give you a shoulder you can rely on and fight for you no matter how hard it is. A heavy burden... It's just that although I have such a heart, I'm too weak right now and I don't have such a shoulder at all. I can't even step in what you're bearing, otherwise, instead of being able to bear it for you, it will become Your drag and concern may even become your weakness."

"When I received the invitation from the prince and the third prince at the same time, Instructor Qin persuaded me to take the initiative to alienate you, because only this is the best for you, and it is also a kind of protection for myself. But this kind of thing, I will never be able to. Do. How to deal with the joint invitation of the crown prince and the third prince, I have thought a lot these days. In the end, after weighing all the things I currently have, no matter how high my heart and arrogance are, I can't help but admit that I am now. , I don't have the ability and qualifications to intervene in the turmoil of the royal family, let alone share anything for you. At least, if the prince and the third prince want me to die, it will be a piece of cake."

"So, for their invitation, I can't make a choice, that is, I can't choose one of them, and I can't choose at the same time and not choose at the same time. The only thing I can do is to leave silently without making a choice."

This was the choice Yun Che made after deliberating for the past few days.

As the crown prince and prince of a country, the power of his subordinates and the mastery of his masters are absolutely unimaginable. After he left Floating Cloud City, he spent most of his time in the circle of the younger generation, and he could still excel. But the battle of the royal family is not comparable to the circle of the younger generation at all. As far as profound practitioners are concerned, under the Prince and the Third Prince, the powerhouses in the Earth Profound Realm will not be less than a few hundred people, and the powerhouses in the Heavenly Profound Realm are bound to exist. Countless. No matter who Yun Che chooses, he will be drawn into this circle. He has no power, and his profound strength is unbearably low in this. Some of them are only influential in the younger generation. Apart from adding to Lan Xueruo's worries and concerns, what kind of storms can he make?

And these, Lan Xueruo, the princess of the royal family, saw it more thoroughly than Yun Che.

Her lips moved several times, and she stopped talking again and again. These days, she had been worried that Yun Che would be involved, and leaving was the safest choice for him.

However, she was not willing to let Yun Che leave at all, because she could no longer imagine the days when she couldn't see him. I do not know since when, Yun Che has become her spiritual support and sustenance, if he leaves, she will be at a loss.

In the end, she chose to nod and said softly, "It's fine to leave... No, it's the best. If you are just an ordinary disciple of the inner palace, even if they will win over, they will not be so eager and strong. But you now Your influence in the imperial city is too great, and your choice will largely guide the inclination of the younger generation of profound practitioners. Therefore, no matter who you choose, you will be completely involved in it, and at the same time, you will be hated by the other party... ...even assassinations."

"These days, I've always wanted to persuade you to leave the imperial city temporarily... But, I can't bear to part with you, in the imperial city, my heart can never settle down, if even you leave me, I... I..." Lan Xueruo held Yun Che's hand tightly and bit her lip.

Yun Che shook his head and said, "Senior sister, don't worry, I'm only leaving temporarily, and it won't be for a long time. In fact, the reason why I want to leave the imperial city is to avoid the invitation of the prince and the third prince. The reason, the other half, is that I want to go out to practice. The Blue Wind Profound Palace is indeed the cultivation place that countless profound practitioners dream of, but this place is too comfortable, there is pressure, but there is no persecution, and there is injury, but there is no threat of death. I I need a place where I can practice more so that I can have a shoulder that you can rely on earlier. Half a year... Senior Sister, give me half a year, and after half a year, I will definitely come back with a stronger self."

Half a year, if one's cultivation period as a profound practitioner is actually very short. Yun Che will compress the time to such an extent. One reason is that the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament will be held in half a year. The more important reason is that he is afraid that if the time is too long, something will happen to the royal family, and he is not there. Lan Xueruo's side.

"Then... where are you going for the past six months, have you made up your mind?" Lan Xueruo asked worriedly.

"Not yet, but I believe that after leaving the Imperial City, I will find it soon." Yun Che said with a relaxed expression.

Lan Xueruo tried her best to suppress the reluctance that was surging in her heart, and said softly: "Half a year, it's not too long. Since you've already made a choice, I... I'll be in the imperial city, waiting for you to come back with peace of mind. But, In any case, don't put too much pressure on yourself, let alone put yourself in danger... The reason why I still stay in the palace is because I can't leave my father behind. I went to the Black Moon Merchant Guild in person yesterday... But even if It is the Black Moon Chamber of Commerce, and there has never been a soul-burning flower. If this is the fate of the father, then, after the death of the father, I will give up the identity of the princess. Wherever you go, I will go... What royal family The dispute, what kind of hatred for murdering the father, really doesn't matter, as long as I have you in my life, it will be enough, so you must not put too much pressure on yourself, okay?"

Yun Che's heart trembled violently, he stretched out his arm, and hugged Lan Xueruo tightly... Her words were enough to make Yun Che never bear her back.

However, for Lan Xueruo, and for Yun Che, the greatest pressure was never the royal family dispute, but Fen Juecheng of the Burning Heaven Clan!

"Junior Brother Yun, when are you going to leave?"

"……Now."

"what?"

"I won't give up my status as a disciple of the Blue Wind Profound Palace. Palace Master Qin and Yuanba, please help me with Senior Sister to inform me... After half a year, I will be back... I will definitely come back!"

………………………………

Bringing all his belongings, Yun Che quietly left the Blue Wind Profound Palace and the Blue Wind Imperial City under Lan Xueruo's tearful eyes.

"Why did you make such a sudden decision?" Behind him, the little fairy asked misty and cold.

The little fairy took the initiative to talk to him again, and Yun Che felt very at ease: "It's not too sudden. The thought of leaving has happened many times in the past two days."

Although he thought about it, he was always hesitant. He definitely wouldn't tell Little Fairy that the reason why he suddenly left so decisively... was because her statement to Xia Qingyue gave him a lot of stimulation.

"Then where did you decide to go?"

Yun Che looked at the northeast and said slowly: "The place where profound beasts are rampant...the wasteland of death for 1,800 miles!"

"what?"

The name "Death Wasteland" actually made the voice of the little fairy with half-step Wang Xuan's strength sound surprised: "You actually want to go there to practice? Did you know that it is called the paradise of mysterious beasts. The hell. There are countless practitioners who die in it every year."

"I know, I heard about it from my grandfather when I was very young. I just didn't expect that one day I would set foot in that place. I don't think there is a more suitable place for training in the entire Blue Wind Empire." Yun Che was very calm. said.

"Since you already have a place to go, why didn't you tell her?"

Yun Che sighed quietly: "The Wasteland of Death is one of the three major fierce places in the Blue Wind Empire. The number of profound beasts in it is a hundred times that of the Myriad Beast Mountains. If I tell her, she will worry about my safety day and night, and it will be difficult to sleep and eat."

The little fairy did not make another sound.

Yun Che put the heavy sword on his back, took out the map he had bought in advance and glanced at it, his footsteps were flying, he walked towards the north, and soon disappeared at the end of the road, away from the surging Blue Wind Imperial City .

He is proud, but by no means a fool.

Temporary avoidance, only for a stronger return!

ten days later.

The Wasteland of Death, one of the notorious dangerous places in the Blue Wind Empire, stretches 1,800 miles from north to south, and 1,600 miles from east to west. Numerous profound beasts are entrenched in the wasteland. violent. The fierce name and the densely distributed profound beasts here also attract a large number of practitioners and treasure hunters, but every year, hundreds of thousands of profound practitioners die in it. Hence the name "Death Wasteland".

The night is like a wash, the bright moon hangs high, and a strong aura shrouds the surrounding area of ​​the Dead Wasteland all year round. In the distance, the long roars of profound beasts kept coming, one after another.

All the inns are located here, and each house is filled with profound practitioners from all directions. Thirty miles ahead is the area of ​​the Wasteland of Death. The guests in the inn are all people who want to enter the Wasteland of Death.

Under the darkness of the night, a young man with a heavy sword and a calm face walked slowly towards the Senran breath.

"finally reached."

Looking at the light from the inn's window and listening to the terrifying profound beast roaring in the distance, the young man stopped, looked into the distance, and whispered to himself.
