Chapter 15 Chapter 5 Dragon Knight

Since the merging of the Immortal Continent and the Magic Continent, there has been a fierce collision between Eastern martial arts and Taoism and Western Dou Qi and magic. True Qi is against Dou Qi, Taoism is against magic, sword Qi and Dou Qi are turbulent, and Taoism is turbulent. , The magic is gorgeous and majestic. In the early days, in the great confrontation between Chinese and Western practitioners, the power of Taoism and magic was unquestionable. Every slightly accomplished ascetic and magician above the intermediate level had super terrifying strength.They can directly manipulate the vitality between the heaven and the earth. A monk can deal with dozens of western warriors, and a magician above the middle level can also deal with dozens of eastern warriors.

However, the number of ascetics and magicians is rare, and practicing Taoism or studying magic requires extremely strict physical fitness, so Taoism and magic cannot be popularized on a large scale.In addition, ascetics are mostly far away from the world and rarely appear in front of the world, so ascetics are the most mysterious in people's eyes.In the process of cultivation, a magician needs a lot of expensive magic materials, so if you want to become a magician, you can't do without money. Cultivating Eastern martial arts or Western fighting qi requires physical fitness, but it is not strict. Most people can practice it, but due to different physiques, there will naturally be significant differences in achievement.Comparatively speaking, warriors who practice physical skills are inferior to ascetics and magicians. Unless they fight in close quarters, these warriors are no match for practitioners who directly manipulate the vitality of the world.

Of course, nothing is absolute. Some of the oriental warriors can cultivate to a very high level. Any cultivator will have a headache when they see such a powerful oriental warrior. Moreover, occasionally some Eastern warriors can cultivate unrivaled skills, and their super terrifying strength is almost invincible in the world, which is the nightmare of all cultivators.But as we all know, the progress of martial arts is slow, and it is rare to see unrivaled martial artists who can cultivate martial arts to the extreme in hundreds of years, so martial arts gradually decline. Just like Eastern warriors, although there are many Western warriors who practice physical arts, their average strength is far inferior to that of ascetics and magicians.But among these warriors, there are some special cultivators whose super strength is by no means weaker than monks and magicians. These people are the dragon knights in the eyes of the world.

To become a dragon knight, you must first tame a dragon of your own. Of course, dragons also have strengths and weaknesses. Western dragons can be divided into earth dragons, flying dragons, sub-dragons, giant dragons, and holy dragons according to their strengths and weaknesses. There are also the fifth-order dragon knights of the earth dragon knight, the flying dragon knight, the sub-dragon knight, the giant dragon knight, and the holy dragon knight. It can be seen that if you want to become a dragon knight, you must reach the level of the realm, and you must tame a dragon that matches the realm.Therefore, all dragon knights are strong. In a sense, the reason why dragon knights use dragons as mounts is to prove their great strength.

In the Western Continent, the number of giant dragon knights is rare, and the number of holy dragon knights is even rarer. However, all dragon knights who have reached this level have extraordinary and terrifying strength. Even successful magicians and ascetics dare not beat them easily. front. After Chen Nan returned to Qishi Mansion from the Royal Ancient Library, he remembered the trip to the underground tomb just now, and now he was still a little scared. "This old man is really unpredictable. He didn't kill me to silence me, but I'd better leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible..."

Through this incident, he now finally understood the old saying: "There are people beyond people, and there is heaven beyond the sky." The old man looked very old and frail on the outside, but he was a peerless master with terrifying cultivation base. After Zhuge Chengfeng, he saw another fifth-level practitioner, who may have even surpassed the fifth level. "The kid is going crazy again, he's really worthless!" The old poisonous monster put his hands on the courtyard wall and looked at him. "Damn, perverted old man, you're spying on me again!" Chen Nan walked out of the room.

"It's better to act than to be moved, let's go, let's go to see your cold water together." "You..." Thinking of Nalan Ruoshui, Chen Nan hesitated in his heart. If he left like this, he might never see this woman who had just begun to like him in the future. "Oh, I forgot, it's Ruoshui, hehe..." The old poisonous monster had a playful smile on his face. If Chen Nan hadn't taken care of the old man's poisonous body, he really wanted to beat him up. The old poisonous monster said with a smile: "A dragon knight came to Qishi Mansion today, many people went to see his dragon, your Ruoshui originally wanted to go to see it with you, but you were not here, so she went first. Let's go, let's join in the fun too."

The dragon knight is synonymous with the strong, and the dragon is a powerful and mysterious creature. Chen Nan became interested when he heard it, and walked out with the old poisonous monster. Today, Qishi Mansion is different from the peace of the past. The arena in the mansion is full of people. Even the old witch who is rarely seen on weekdays has abandoned her "great magic research career" and came here. It was the first time for Chen Nan to see so many strange people gathered together, most of them were powerful practitioners, and of course there were researchers with outstanding talents in a certain field like the old poisonous monster.Most of these people were over 30 years old, and there were only three or five young people in their twenties like him, so he quickly discovered Nalan Ruoshui.

Nalan Ruoshui is dressed in aqua blue clothes, like an orchid in an empty valley, elegant and ethereal, indifferent to the world.When she saw Chen Nan and the old poisonous monster walking into the arena, a slight smile appeared on her peaceful face. Chen Nan waved to her: "Ruoshui" The old poisonous monster screamed strangely at the side: "Ruoshui, I'm here, I haven't seen you for a long time, like every autumn and a half..." Chen Nan stomped hard on the old man's foot, and the old man let out a cry like killing a pig, which attracted everyone's attention.

Nalan Ruo smiled and said, "Chen Nan, why are you walking so carelessly!" The old poisonous monster shouted: "He is not careless, he is intentional." Nalan Ruoshui ignored him and continued to say to Chennan: "Next time if the ground is uneven, use more force to avoid falling over." The old poisonous monster: "..." Seeing Chen Nan and Nalan Ruoshui walking towards the field together, the old poisonous monster shouted indignantly: "Cross the river and tear down the bridge." In the center of the arena lay a huge and ferocious creature, with dark green scales gleaming and terrifying.No need to ask, this is the dragon of Dragon Knight.The dragon is about seven feet long, with two horns on its head and a pair of huge fleshy wings on its abdomen. It looks quite ferocious.

Beside the dragon stood a tall young man with a handsome appearance and a burly body. His strong body was full of explosive power and had a masculine beauty. A strange look appeared on Nalan Ruoshui's face, and he said, "Did you see that, this man is the dragon knight, he is the son of the great general Sima Changfeng, named Sima Lingkong, and he has been fighting in the Western Continent and Gaozhou for ten years. I practiced cultivation, and now I have returned from my studies. I have now been canonized as a Qishi by the emperor, and I am officially living in the Qishi Mansion today." Chen Nan nodded and said: "Oh, the background is so big, um, is the Qishi still using canonization?" "Of course, every rare scholar enjoys the treatment of a national scholar, how can he not be canonized." Nalan Ruoshui glanced at him and said: "Of course you are an exception, you are a hermit scholar, but... oh , you... if only you could recover your skills! Even if you don't have the enviable glory of a national soldier, at least you have a strong body..." At the end, she was somewhat sad. Chen Nan didn't notice Nalan Ruoshui's strangeness, but he was also a little disappointed. He was about to leave here, and he might never see this beautiful and famous doctor again, but right now, he couldn't say anything. Nalan Ruoshui said: "Look, this dragon is really mighty, I have never seen such a huge and powerful creature." "Is it mighty? No matter how I look at it, it looks like a big-bellied lizard with wings." "Puchi" Nalan Ruoshui laughed. "Oh my god, what kind of eyes do you have? That's a dragon!" Chen Nan said: "The last time I was in the western border mountains, I saw a green dragon with a length of thirty feet. Compared with that green dragon, this dragon is simply a grandson of a dragon, a baby dragon." "Really, is it really that big?" Nalan Ruoshui had a puzzled look on his face. "Quack, this kid is right. What he saw was a giant dragon, and the length of the giant dragon was more than thirty feet. This is just an ordinary flying dragon, a little higher than the flightless earth dragon. "The old witch did not know when she came behind Chen Nan and the two of them. Chen Nan turned around and greeted the scary neighbor. The old witch nodded, and then said: "The dragons in the west are divided into five levels, which are earth dragons, flying dragons, sub-dragons, giant dragons, and holy dragons. Except for earth dragons that can't fly, the remaining four levels Dragons can fly. Earth dragons are about five feet long, flying dragons are about seven feet long, sub-dragons are between fifteen and twenty feet long, and giant dragons are at least thirty feet long. As for holy dragons, I have never seen them before. , but I heard people say that holy dragons are some rare and special dragons, and their powerful strength is not necessarily proportional to their body size." Nalan Ruoshui said with a smile: "Magic Granny is really knowledgeable." "Quack, how can I say that I also stayed in the Western Continent for a while, if I don't even know about this, I won't be laughed at. However, you girl is really sweet and lovable, even better than that little girl Chu Yu. Much stronger, that little girl wanted to run away when she saw me." Sima Lingkong, the dragon knight in the arena, was explaining something to the crowd, and everyone listened with gusto.At this time, the little princess Chu Yu suddenly appeared cunningly. She kept looking towards the center of the field, as if she was looking for someone. Chen Nan and Nalan Ruoshui glanced at each other and couldn't help but smile. The old witch said angrily: "You damn girl! Am I really that scary? Every time I come to Qishi's mansion, I always sneak around. Hmph, I'm so mad!" After scouting the "enemy situation", the little princess let out a sigh of relief, and ran to the center of the field like a lively elf. "Sima Lingkong, how dare you not report to this princess after you come back!" After everyone saw this beautiful little devil, smiles appeared on their faces, but Sima Lingkong, who was originally in high spirits, suddenly withered like a deflated ball. "Hello, Your Royal Highness." The little princess's savage nature was fully revealed, and said: "The few people who went to the Western Continent to practice, after they came back, they all reported to me, but you didn't go, said, did you not prepare a gift for me?" She circled around the flying dragon and said, "This dragon is not bad, is it a gift for me? But it's too ugly, forget it, I'll accept it reluctantly." Upon hearing this, Sima Lingkong's face turned green, and he apologized with a bitter face, "Princess Yu, this is my mount. The gift I prepared for you is still at home, and I will deliver it in a while." Chen Nan finally understood the meaning of the words "famous" in the imperial capital, and anyone who saw her would have a headache.One can imagine how the tragic childhood of these noble children in the imperial capital was spent. "So you don't want to give me the dragon?" "That's not it……" The little princess snorted and said, "Stingy, don't worry, I don't want such a small and ugly monster. The dragons I saw in the Western Region Mountains are much bigger than yours." Sima Lingkong wiped the cold sweat off his brow, and said, "This is just a flying dragon, of course not as big as those giant dragons." The little princess said: "Is this dragon obedient? Can I ride it and fly into the sky?" "of course can." "Great!" The little princess immediately showed excitement on her face. Sima Lingkong patted the flying dragon and said: "When you fly up later, be more stable, you understand?" Feilong nodded in a rather humane manner. Everyone was amazed. The little princess was also a little surprised, and said: "It can understand human language." "Of course, dragons are intelligent creatures. Although it is only a second-level flying dragon, it can understand some simple human languages." The little princess climbed up the dragon's back excitedly.At this time, the old witch shouted from behind the crowd: "Yu'er, if you want to fly, you can learn magic with me. Look how easy it is. Why ride someone else's dragon?" After speaking, the old witch floated up and came to the center of field. The moment the little princess saw the old witch, her expression changed drastically, but soon a sweet smile appeared on her face again. "Hi, mother-in-law, I have something to do, I'm going back to the palace." After finishing speaking, she quickly slid off the dragon's back and got out of the crowd like a loach. The onlookers looked at each other in blank dismay, and finally broke out into a burst of laughter. The old witch yelled: "The little girl wants to run away when she sees me, come back." She chanted a spell and used the wind flying technique in the wind element to quickly chase after her. The little princess's voice came from a distance: "No, I really want to go back to the palace..." ... After all, the little princess was caught and came back, she pouted, but she didn't dare to attack. Seeing her embarrassment, Chen Nan couldn't bear it any longer, and immediately laughed.Nalan Ruoshui tugged at the corner of his clothes, and said: "Don't laugh, don't you see that others are enduring it? If the little girl sees it, then you will be miserable." Of course Chen Nan understood the little princess's devilish nature, when the little princess looked at him, he immediately stopped smiling. The old witch said with a smile: "Quack, don't be unhappy, many people want me to teach him, but I don't teach him, you want to fly into the sky, I can give it to you!" The old witch uttered a spell, and a water-blue light curtain surrounded the little princess, causing her to float into the air. "Is it fun? As long as you learn from me, you can do it too." Although the little princess had an excited look on her face, she shook her head resolutely after hearing what the old witch said. Angrily, the old witch immediately stopped the transmission of magic energy. The little princess screamed and fell from the sky, until she was about to fall to the ground, she was supported by a soft light, but her little face was already pale with fright.Chen Nan finally understands why the little princess is so afraid of the old witch, and at the same time understands why she doesn't want to take the old witch as her teacher. At this time, Sima Lingkong stepped forward to salute and said, "I have seen the magic mother-in-law." "Well, no courtesy. The young man is not bad, he has his own dragon at a young age." Sima Lingkong said: "Senior is over-reputed, and junior is far behind senior. When senior was practicing in the Western Continent, his reputation spread far and wide, and people still mention you." The old witch quacked and said, "You are already very good. I think you are already considered a powerful figure among the younger generation. As long as you work hard, you will definitely become a fourth-order dragon knight in the future." The old poisonous monster ran behind Chen Nan and Nalan Ruoshui at some point, and he whispered: "This dead old woman is really shameless, look at her proud face, I really don't know that her great magician credentials , It was due to some shit luck. But this muscular kid is really strong, and being able to become a flying dragon knight is not easy at his age." Chen Nan nodded in agreement, he had already felt the powerful power of Sima Lingkong, and the second-level flying dragon knight really lived up to his reputation. While the old witch was speaking, the little princess stood up and sneaked out of the crowd.After a while, the old witch suddenly found that the little princess was missing, and in a fit of anger, continued her "great magic research career". At this time, Sima Lingkong suddenly spotted Nalan Ruoshui, his eyes lit up, and he walked over through the crowd watching the flying dragon. "If the water is here, if you want to see the flying dragon, I can just take it to your house." At this time, Chen Nan suddenly felt his right hand tightened, and was grabbed by Nalan Ruoshui's soft little hand. "No, I'm just accompanying Chen Nan to take a look." Sima Lingyun shot two cold lightnings from his eyes, looked at the hands held by the two, then looked at Chen Nan, and said, "Who is he?" Nalan Ruoshui said calmly: "He is someone I can entrust for life." Chen Nan's expression froze for a moment, and then he felt a little uncomfortable.Nalan Ruoshui obviously knew this muscular man a long time ago, and was obviously using him as a shield. He felt like he was being used. Sima Lingkong's eyes were about to burst into flames, he stared at Chen Nan viciously, and said: "Boy, you go away, this is a matter between me and Ruoshui, I hope you don't get involved in it." The old poisonous monster standing behind Chen Nan said: "Young people, don't speak so aggressively, just say what you have to say." At this time, those strange warriors watching the flying dragon noticed the abnormality here, and turned their heads to look here. Nalan Ruoshui said: "Let's go." She took Chen Nan's hand and walked out of the arena. Sima Lingkong was furious, and rushed to the two of them at once, angrily said: "Ruoshui, I hope you pay attention, you are my fiancee now, don't flirt with others, this will not only insult my family style, but also insult The style of your house." Nalan Ruoshui said angrily: "Nonsense, who is your fiancee? Please respect yourself, don't talk nonsense, get out of the way!" She pushed Sima Lingkong away with one hand, and ran out with Chen Nan with the other.Chen Nan felt very unhappy, he wanted to shake off Nalan Ruoshui's hand, but hesitated for a while, and finally did not take any action. The knights in the arena chatted a lot. Sima Lingkong stood there for a while, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he chased after him. After Nalan Ruoshui and the two ran out of the arena, they went straight to Chennan's courtyard. In front of Chennan's courtyard gate, Sima Lingkong chased after him and said, "Ruoshui, why is this? You know, I like you. Soon, my father will come to your house to propose marriage. What do you do now?" How can I be with someone who has nothing to do with me?" Nalan Ruoshui said: "You should die, I will not marry you." "You..." A stern light flashed in Sima Lingkong's eyes, and he said, "Okay, you are really capable, hmph, when your father agrees, I'll see whether you marry or not." His eyes flickered fiercely, and he said to Chen Nan: "Boy, did you ignore what I just said, I told you to stay away, did you hear me? Go away!" Chen Nan was already very unhappy in his heart, but when he heard this remark, he immediately became furious, and the family's profound art that was forcibly suppressed by him surged involuntarily, and a powerful aura erupted from him. Afraid that Sima Lingkong would attack Chen Nan, Nalan Ruoshui stood in front of him.At the same time, the warriors sent by the eldest princess to guard Houyi's bow sensed a powerful wave of power, and seven figures appeared in front of the three of them in an instant. Chen Nan groaned inwardly, blaming himself for being too impulsive, he quickly restrained his skills, and his powerful aura disappeared in a flash. Several people in the field were suspicious for a while, but Nalan Ruoshui and several warriors finally believed that Sima's killing intent erupted from the sky.But Sima Lingkong thought that the powerful aura came from the warriors in front of him, because there was no power fluctuation in Chen Nan's body at this moment, no matter how he tried, he could not feel the aura of a practitioner in his body. Sima Lingkong sneered: "Boy, are you a man? What kind of skill is hiding behind a woman?" Chen Nan glanced at him coldly, and said: "Why are you barking? People don't like you at all, and you still want to stalk you, it's really shameless." Sima Lingkong laughed angrily and said, "Hey, you bastard, if I don't cut you to pieces, I'll..." "That's enough! Sima Lingkong, you can't finish it. If you continue to be rude here, I will sue you at His Majesty." Nalan Ruoshui's face was livid, and he lost his former calm at this moment. "What's so good about this kid, what's his ability, he can't even be called a little boy, Ruoshui, you..." "You are shameless!" Nalan Ruo gritted her teeth angrily, she turned around and pulled Chen Nan into the yard. Just as Sima Lingkong was about to follow in, several warriors beside him stretched out their hands to stop him, one of them said: "Mr. Sima, please stay, the princess has ordered that no one is allowed to enter this courtyard without her approval." At this moment, Sima Lingkong was about to go mad with rage, and roared, "Why? How did that pair of dogs and men get in?" "Because this is Mr. Chen's courtyard, Miss Nalan was ordered to heal his body." "What, that trash is also a Qishi?" Several warriors stopped talking. Sima Lingkong's mind gradually calmed down, he took a hard look at the courtyard, turned and left. After arriving in the courtyard, Nalan Ruoshui quickly let go of Chen Nan's hand, turned his face to the side, and said, "I'm sorry." The unhappiness in Chen Nan's heart has gradually disappeared, and he said: "It's nothing." "Aren't you going to ask me why I did this?" "I'm waiting for you to tell me." Nalan Ruoshui turned around and said, "My father is Nalan Wencheng, Minister of the Central Committee and Left, and Sima Lingkong's father is Sima Changfeng, the Great General of the Central Committee and Huwei. Both of them are important ministers of the Chu State, but they have always been at odds. In recent years, some ministers in the DPRK and China have dealt with each other, and the relationship between the two has eased. Later, some people suggested that the two families get married, so as to improve the relationship between generals and generals." "A discord between the general and the prime minister is not good for the country. My father agreed to those who deal with him. At that time, the general Huwei also readily agreed. Others may not know Sima Lingkong's character, but I know that he has returned to the imperial capital several times in recent years. Once, every time I come back, there will be some romantic incidents, it is simply a romantic and wicked young man." "I understand my father's difficulties and know that he is dedicated to the country. I hate Sima Lingkong's romantic and wicked young man, but I can't change this fact. In a few days, Sima Changfeng will send someone to propose marriage. I have no choice but to Stimulate Sima Lingkong, make him hate me, and ruin this marriage, so..." "So you pulled me and deliberately appeared in front of Sima Lingkong to provoke him?" "Yes... I'm sorry." "Hey, you really don't understand men's hearts. Doing so will only backfire." Chen Nan really felt a little sympathetic to Nalan Ruoshui. This woman who is usually very quiet is so helpless in her heart. As a noble woman, she can't control herself Your happiness can only be used as a political bargaining chip.He sighed and said, "How can I help you?" A mist appeared in Nalan Ruoshui's eyes, and his voice trembled, he said, "I don't know... I don't even know what I should do..." "Otherwise..." Chen Nan really wanted to say, "Otherwise, I'll take you with me." But when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back. Although he has a slight liking for Nalan Ruoshui now, he doesn't like it. equals love.But he has decided to help if necessary. "What else?" Nalan Ruoshui had a look of hope on his face. "You can run away from marriage and come back after the matter is over." Nalan Ruoshui was a little disappointed, and said: "I'm a girl, where can I go, I have never traveled far, let alone have any experience in the world, I am alone... woo woo..." In the end, she couldn't bear it any longer and burst into tears.Chen Nan scratched his head in embarrassment, he didn't have a handkerchief, and finally raised his wide sleeves in front of Nalan Ruoshui. Nalan Ruoshui tugged at his sleeve, gently wiped away the tears, and finally threw herself into his arms, crying loudly. "What should I do? What should I do... woo woo..." Chen Nan was at a loss. Nalan Ruoshui cried for a while, his voice gradually became weaker, and finally said quietly: "If you have a distinguished background, if you have an unrivaled skill...I...I'm leaving."
