339. Chapter 339 Yelin City Lantern Festival, the boy who slayed the dragon finally turned into an evil dragon


The stall owner is a simple man. He said: "Guests, why don't you come at night? If you buy paper lanterns now, you can't see the original appearance of the paper lanterns."

"There won't be many outsiders coming to join in the fun this year, and the street won't be very crowded at night."

"That's fine."

Ning Tianchen took out the golden soul coins from the soul guide and paid for some paper lanterns that Ning Rongrong had his eye on.

The two turned and left the street, intending to find a meal at a nearby restaurant.

I'm used to eating and sleeping in the open along the way, so I have to eat something good.

In the afternoon, when the two of them were wandering around the city, they discovered that Wuhun Palace had sent a large number of additional personnel into the city, seemingly to maintain order at the lantern festival.

Ning Tianchen took Ning Rongrong and sat down in a teahouse.

He couldn't help but wonder, "It's just a lantern festival, does Wuhun Palace need to send so many elites?"

The people of the Wuhun Palace who maintain order are almost all strong men above the Soul King level, and there are even a lot of Soul Saints.

Currently, Ning Tianchen has not found a Contra-level expert, but thinking about it, when the lantern festival begins, there will definitely be a Contra-level expert.

Yelin City is just a small border town. Wuhun Palace arranges for so many people to gather here, which will inevitably lead to people's imagination.

Ning Tianchen even felt that once Wuhun Palace attacked the two of them, they would be unable to fly.

It's obviously not worth risking your life for a lantern festival.

Ning Rongrong said worriedly: "Brother Tianchen, why don't we leave first?"

Ning Tianchen was a little confused.

At the beginning, he promised Ning Rongrong to bring her to Yelin City to participate in the lantern festival.

If you miss it this year, you won’t have another chance for a long time in the future.

After thinking about it, Ning Tianchen analyzed: "There are only three reasons for Wuhun Palace's arrangement."

First, Wuhundian felt that the Xingluo Empire would attack Yelin City at night or cause trouble during the lantern festival. Such a large number of security teams are dispatched to allow the lantern festival to proceed normally.

Secondly, Wuhundian wanted to use the lantern festival as an excuse to arrest someone in the city.

This is what Ning Tianchen is most worried about.

His and Ning Rongrong's talents were undoubtedly the biggest danger in Bibi Dong's eyes.

In particular, the Shura God and the Rakshasa God are mortal enemies. It cannot be ruled out that the Rakshasa God secretly directed Bibi Dong to attack him.

The last reason is that important figures from Wuhun Palace are coming here to participate in the lantern festival. These security forces are to ensure that the safety of important figures is not threatened.

No matter what the reason was, Ning Tianchen didn't dare to gamble.

Right now, the best thing to do is to leave Yelin City and return to the sect.

After a long silence, Ning Tianchen sighed and said apologetically: "I'm sorry Rongrong, I'm afraid I can't fulfill my original promise. For your and my safety, we will leave the city later."

Ning Rongrong did not object, nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "Brother Tianchen, Rongrong knows. In the future, we will hold a large-scale lantern festival in Tiandou City, and it will be the same."

Ning Tianchen rubbed her forehead and nodded seriously.

After paying for the tea, the two of them walked out of the teahouse.

Suddenly, Ning Tianchen frowned.

I don't know when, a large number of powerful people from Wuhun Palace gathered outside the teahouse.

With so many people attacking them, it would be difficult for the two of them to break through successfully.

Just as he was preparing for the worst, a middle-aged man wearing the robe of a cardinal from Wuhun Palace stepped forward and said to them, "Earl Ning, Miss Ning, I'm sorry to bother you. Someone in the palace The elder asked me to help spread the word. I hope that Count Ning will return to Tiandou City as soon as possible. Someone is still waiting for you!"

"Wait for me?"

Ning Tianchen was puzzled at first, but soon understood the reason.

Come to think of it, Qian Renxue did not leave the Tiandou Empire after the palace coup was over. Perhaps, the other party has something he wants to explain to him personally.

"I understand, what about tonight?" Ning Tianchen asked pretending to be surprised: "Is your Wuhun Palace such a big battle just for a lantern festival?"

This cardinal didn't seem to be from Bibi Dong. He said unabashedly: "There is a heavyweight in the palace who will come here to participate in the lantern festival. If Count Ning is interested, he can stay for one night and there is no rush." This time.”

"Of course, you don't have to worry about your own safety."

After that, at the cardinal's call, the people from Wuhun Palace immediately withdrew.

"Brother Tianchen, do you know anyone from Wuhun Palace?" Ning Rongrong was puzzled, but there was a trace of curiosity in his eyes.

She had been in contact with Ning Tianchen for a long time, and she didn't know that the other party was related to the people of Wuhun Hall, especially the elders of Wuhun Hall.

Ning Tianchen didn't say anything clearly, but said vaguely: "This elder has a good relationship with the old guy. I should be asked to go because there should be something important to explain."

"Rong Rong, I heard from this senior that there is no unity within Wuhun Palace. Maybe this senior and Pope Bibi Dong belong to different factions."

Ning Rongrong nodded and stopped asking.

Everyone has their own secrets, there is no need to get to the bottom of them.

Thinking of this, she suddenly took Ning Tianchen's arm and smiled like a flower, "Brother Tianchen, this way, we don't have to leave tonight. Let's stay and enjoy the lantern festival."

Ning Tianchen had no reason to refuse.

……

The night falls, the stars are dotted, and the lights of Yelin City gradually light up, like stars falling into the mortal world.

Lanterns are hung high on both sides of the market, and the painted paper lanterns emit a soft light, reflecting the happy faces of passers-by.

The red palace lanterns are hung above the shop, resplendent and magnificent as a palace.

Vendors carry burdens and walk through the streets, shouting various lanterns and snacks, and their voices are pleasant to the ear.

The children held lotus lanterns and shuttled among the crowd with laughter, just like fish swimming in the water, freely.

On the bluestone road, ladies are dressed in silk and satin dresses, holding paper lanterns in their hands, laughing and chatting. Their beautiful shadows complement the lights, making them look like they are in the middle of a painting. In the center of the lantern festival, a huge dragon lantern soared into the clouds and mist, with its head held high, its body circling, and its tail swinging, as if it was about to soar into the nine heavens.

The children sat around and stared at the breathtaking lights.

On the lantern stalls not far away, exquisite lanterns are displayed, and the flowers, birds, insects, fish, landscapes and figures are lifelike, making people forget to leave.

"It's so beautiful."

Ning Rongrong was completely intoxicated by such beautiful scenery.

Almost all the vendors passing by her received her attention.

Ning Tianchen couldn't help but sigh, "I hope this scene can last forever."

Thousands of lights are connected together, like a beautiful picture.

Such beautiful scenery can only emerge in a peaceful and prosperous era. Once war comes, the beautiful scenery will fall apart.

Compared with previous years, Yelin City’s lantern festival this year was much deserted.

The Lantern Festival is a special festival for people in the city, and almost every household makes paper lanterns.

In front of each vendor, there were only a few customers picking out paper and other items.

When they reached an arch bridge, Ning Rongrong pointed to both sides of the river and said eagerly: "Brother Tianchen, let's go and set off the paper boat."

They bought some paper boats and the two of them stood by the river. Ning Rongrong held her hands in front of her and made a praying gesture. She lowered her head and whispered: "Brother Tianchen, I heard that if you write your wishes into a paper boat and put it back into the river, your wish will come true." Oh.”

"Really? Then I have to think carefully about what I should wish for."

Ning Tianchen pretended to think for a while, and then compared his right hand to the fingers of a sword, and the soul power condensed on his fingertips.

Using his soul power as ink and his fingers as pen, he left his wishes on the paper, stuffed them into the paper boat, and floated far away in the water.

Ning Rongrong thought for a long time before writing down her wish on the paper with a pen.

The vendor selling paper boats said with a smile: "I hope all your wishes will come true."

Before the two of them could react, a group of people hurried over and politely asked them to leave.

"They are from Wuhun Palace."

Ning Tianchen took Ning Rongrong's arm and stepped aside.

He also wanted to see which heavyweight character in Wuhundian was so impressive.

"What a terrible sight." Ning Rongrong muttered in a low voice.

Not long after, a woman in a lavender palace dress, surrounded by a group of strong men from Wuhun Palace, stopped on the small bridge to watch, her eyes twinkling.

The people behind her wisely stepped back.

"Bibi Dong!" Ning Tianchen frowned.

He didn't expect that Bibi Dong would come here in person.

When you think about it, this seems to be expected.

If Bibi Dong didn't want to come here, why would she hold a lantern festival?

Bibi Dong also noticed Ning Tianchen, and after just a quick glance, he looked away, as if he didn't care about the other person's appearance.

"Brother Tianchen, the two titled Douluo who belong to the Pope's Palace are also here."

Ning Rongrong calmly pointed to the other side of the river.

Jugui Douluo was originally from Bibi Dong, so it was not surprising to appear with her.

Ning Tianchen suddenly remembered that he had tried to recruit Ju Douluo.

Due to the disparity in strength, Ju Douluo might not have taken it seriously.

For Ning Tianchen, being able to recruit Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo would undoubtedly cut off Bibi Dong's arms, which would be beneficial to the future situation on the mainland.

But the real problem is that he will not have the opportunity to contact Ju Ghost Douluo alone again, and this idea can only remain at the theoretical level.

Following Ju Ghost Douluo was the golden generation of Wuhun Palace.

After returning from the killing city, Hu Liena immediately told everything about Ning Tianchen.

During the Soul Master Competition, Ning Tianchen's strength was vaguely able to suppress them. Since he obtained the Killing God Realm, his strength has already transformed, and now he has become the target that the golden generation needs to look up to.

Yan clenched his fists and said with firm eyes: "Hmph, just wait, one day I will trample you under my feet."

Xie Yue patted his shoulder lightly, "You are ambitious, but Ning Tianchen is already a Soul Saint. I hope you can catch up."

With his strength, he naturally couldn't tell Ning Tianchen's depth, but Ju Douluo told him.

……

"She's going to see when."

Ning Rongrong couldn't help but mutter.

Bibi Dong stood stunned on the bridge for a long time, no one knew what she was thinking.

As the freshness in her heart was extinguished, Ning Rongrong lost interest in participating in the lantern festival and returned to the hotel with Ning Tianchen.

"I'm really pissed off. Before we had enough fun, someone came to disrupt the situation." Ning Rongrong sat on the sofa and said angrily.

Ning Tianchen sat next to her and comforted: "At least, we have experienced the beauty of the lantern festival."

"At the lantern festival, joining in the fun is the most important thing. How can there be fun like Bibi Dong did?"

After some persuasion, Ning Rongrong no longer struggled with this.

After releasing the paper boat into the river, they completed the lantern festival.

Late at night, Ning Tianchen suddenly opened his eyes, ended his cultivation state, and looked out the window sharply, "Hu Liena, I told you, it's rude to peek outside the door!"

Compared to when he was in the Killing City, he was obviously less murderous at this moment.

He waved his hand and the door to the room slowly opened.

Hu Liena walked into the room with graceful steps, covered her face and chuckled: "I thought you would live with her."

The situation in the mainland is tense. Ning Tianchen and Ning Rongrong must speed up their cultivation, so naturally they won't get tired of being together for a long time.

Ning Tianchen did not explain to the other party, but asked: "Why did you come here alone? This is not a killing place, you don't need help!"

Hu Liena put away the smile on her face, sat on the sofa nearby, and said in a calm tone: "After you left the Killing City, Tang San also came. However, his face changed and he was renamed Tang Yin. ”

"A few days ago, Tang Yin, who was wanted by the Tiandou Empire, was also Tang San. Don't be deceived by him."

Ning Tianchen's face was calm, "If this is all you need, you can leave."

Hu Liena was not surprised by his performance.

What she said just now was just an introduction, to put distance between her and Ning Tianchen. Her true purpose was only revealed at this moment.

"You and I are both geniuses, and the future of the mainland will definitely be ours. Come with us and contribute to the reunification of the mainland."

Ning Tianchen asked: "Why should I be with you?"

Hu Liena continued: "The existence of Tiandou and Xingluo Empire is the source of the turmoil in the continent. You are a smart person and you should know how to choose."

"The teacher said that if you join us, the teacher will personally help you hunt down the 100,000-year-old soul rings and soul bones. You and I will be the sharp swords that unify the continent."

Ning Tianchen said leisurely: "You know, the boy who slays the dragon will eventually become an evil dragon."

"In launching a continent-wide war, what is the difference between Wuhun Palace and the two empires?"

Hu Liena said disapprovingly: "The difference is that we will succeed in the end, and history will record our just battle."

Ning Tianchen shrugged nonchalantly.

The unification of the continent is also his goal, but it must not turn into a dictatorship.

Wuhun Palace has unified the mainland, and with Bibi Dong's temperament, there is a high probability that he will mess around on the mainland, which will only make the chaos worse.

"If you have nothing to do, you can leave. I don't want to argue with you about right or wrong, it's meaningless." Ning Tianchen lost interest in continuing the conversation.

Hu Liena sat up and before leaving, she added: "My invitation is valid forever, but don't be too late or it will lose its value."

"Oh, by the way. Do you remember that rabbit in the Soul Master Competition? She was sacrificed to Tang San, so Tang San has a hundred thousand year soul ring and soul bone. If you encounter him, you have to be careful."

With that said, she left the room.

How could Ning Tianchen, who has a God's perspective, not know these things Hu Liena said.

The only thing he wanted to pay attention to was Tang San's movements.

The development of things has gone off track, and the real test will come next. (End of chapter)
