This sort of invisible trap array was not something they could deal with.\n\"It seems like something happened to Brother Meng.\" Pu Qian, the black faced man, sighed. If he knew that this ship was so unusual, he would have rather remained in the ocean than to board it.\nJiang Xiapeng bowed respectfully to Mo Wuji, \"Brother Mo was the first to discover something wrong with this place, so may I ask what are your plans?\"\nAfter inspecting the dead silent ship, and taking in a few deep breaths, Mo Wuji replied, \"I think everyone should still wait a little longer. Since this ship brought us here by itself, it must have its goals. Moreover, we are now in the middle of the ocean, so the situation off the ship doesn’t seem much better than the one on it. I suggest for everyone to not wander off on their own, and we’ll continue this discussion after finding somewhere to sit down on the outer deck.\"\nThere was another point that Mo Wuji withheld, which was that the ship did not restrict their ability to move, even though Meng Zhi died when he was alone. As such, the ship obviously had a limited ability to hide things, and could not deal with the nine of them at the same time.\nOf course, the most important thing was that he needed time to study the trap array on the ship. Only after destroying the trap array, would they have a chance to act.\n\"I second Brother Mo’s intentions.\" Gouzi was the first to respond.\nAlthough the remaining people thought that what Mo Wuji said was simply wasting time, but that was the best they could do. Since they could not break the trap array of the ship, or rather, even if they managed to do so, they would still fall into the sea, it would better to just wait on the ship to see what would happen.\nAll of them formed a circle and sat down, each thinking of their own ideas while waiting for the thunderstorm to subside.\nFor trap arrays, he had encountered one before, but it was a elementary grade trap array, while the one on the ship was probably an intermediate grade trap array. With this foundation, in a short span of two days, Mo Wuji had already discovered the dispel point of the ship’s trap array. As expected, the trap array on the ship was an intermediate grade trap array.\nImmediately, Mo Wuji kept Chu Xingzi’s introduction to arrays, and discovered that everyone else was standing up, even taking out their own treasures.\n\"Brother Mo, we just passed by a large island, which was a location marked on our sea maps. If we want to escape, this is a good opportunity. Why don’t we join forces to attack this trap array?\" Seeing that Mo Wuji no longer studied his notes, Jiang Xiapeng spoke first.\nMo Wuji looked ordinary, and did not seem to have any spirituality, yet he gave the feeling that he was deep beyond measure.\n\"Sure, but this trap array is at least an intermediate grade trap array. So if everyone wants to break apart this trap array, you'd better listen to me.\" With a nod, Mo Wuji stood up as well.\n\"Brother Mo, you understand array dao?\" Jiang Xiapeng exclaimed.\nNot only Jiang Xiapeng, but the rest of the people stared at Mo Wuji, pleasantly surprised.\nWhile there were many people from various sects here, and even with most of them at Transcending Mortality Stage, there weren’t many who were proficient with array dao.\nEven for a big sect, something like array dao might not necessarily be passed down through the generations, because it was simply too valuable. As for rogue cultivators, it depended on luck and chance for one to become proficient in array dao. Because of this, array masters were very rare.\nOf course, there was the chance that both these possibilities were playing out at the same time.\n\"Master Mo, Old Na has decided to secularise, and become your mantle disciple to spread and glorify your skills…\" The laughing monk said sincerely, and with determination.\nBut Mo Wuji did not bother with this joker, and said immediately, \"I will use blades to point out some spots. Everyone please attack those spots at the same time.\"\nAfter finishing his sentence, Mo Wuji sent out the first blade, which landed conspicuously at a location in the air.\nMost of the people here were in Transcending Mortality Stage, so after the blade was sent out, seven to eight magic treasures struck the same spot.\n\"Crack!\" With a slight noise, a small crack appeared in midair.\nThe confidence that everyone had towards Mo Wuji was boosted greatly upon seeing that such a result was obtained just from the first strike. When his second blade landed, even greater power struck its position.\n\"Crack!\" The seventh time that the group’s magic treasures hit a point in space, a crisp cracking sound echoed through the air, following which a loud shattering sound could be heard.\nFresh sea breeze blew into their faces, and all of them could not help but scream out of joy. The laughing monk leapt out first, landing in the sea.\nThose left behind were no slower, as they rushed out quickly. Mo Wuji was the sixth to charge out, and behind him was Zhuang Yan, Qi Susu, and the black faced man.\nJust as he crossed out of the outer deck, Mo Wuji’s spiritual will sensed a black shadow with a stench grabbing at his back. The shadow had a strong yin aura, and as he was not a newbie that just step foot in the world of cultivation, he instantly knew that there was a ghost cultivator or yin cultivator hiding there.\nOn top of that, this guy bore grudges, knowing that Mo Wuji had let his food go free, so he wanted to take down Mo Wuji the first.\nBut how would Mo Wuji, who had spiritual will, allow this ghost cultivator to catch him? With a twist of his body in the air, the Tian Ji Pole appeared in his hands. When the ghost cultivator saw that Mo Wuji had dodged, he seemed rather indignant, knowing that it wouldn’t be very possible to catch Mo Wuji ever again. The ghost cultivator split into two, one headed for Zhuang Yan and the other Qi Susu. He likely thought that these two girls would be easier to deal with.\n\"Ah!\" A scream of terror rang out, as Qi Susu was dragged straight into the ship by the ghost cultivator, leaving a trail of blood behind on deck.\nNaturally, Mo Wuji could detect both shadow claws, however they were too fast and too far away, so he could only save one person. Zhuang Yan seemed like a good person, had reminded him of certain things, and was much closer to him. Hence, he decided to lend a helping hand.\nRight before the shadow claws had come into contact with Zhuang Yan, Mo Wuji spun his body in midair once again, directly lifting his body fifty metres away. Then he swung down continuously with the pole.\nA bloodcurdling scream rang out, as the shadow claw took away a large piece of Zhuang Yan’s clothing before disappearing into the ship.\n‘Creak’ The sound of the floorboards beneath him made Mo Wuji’s expression change for the worse. This ghost cultivator was not someone easy to deal with. After he couldn’t catch Mo Wuji, he actually tried to adjust the ship’s position such that Mo Wuji would not land in the sea. It seemed like the ghost cultivator had no plans to let Mo Wuji go.\nThe trap array of the ship was activated once again, causing everything other than the blood stains on the outer deck to disappear. Now Mo Wuki knew that he could only rely on himself to break this array, because he was left alone on the ship after saving Zhuang Yan.\nCompared to before, the Mo Wuji now had a little more confidence. When the ghost cultivator’s shadow claw grabbed him, he hit the shadow claw once, which confirmed his suspicions. The ghost cultivator’s strength did have a limit, and he only relied on ambushes. In other words, if the nine of them were not that cowardly, they might have been able to force this ghost cultivator to reveal himself just with their strength alone.\n\"Brother Qi, let’s go to help brother Mo quickly.\" Zhuang Yan was the most aware of why Mo Wuji was trapped on the ship again. It was because he was trying to save her.\nIn a comforting tone, Qi Wenxuan replied, \"Yanyan, brother Mo is a good man, but we don’t have the ability to save him, so let’s just leave.\"\nZhuang Yan looked at Qi Wenxuan in disbelief, before carrying on, \"But brother Xuan, brother Mo just saved me, otherwise I would have been the dead one.\"\nWith a sigh, Qi Wenxuan pointed at the island not far away, \"Yanyan, let’s go to the island first before we start brainstorming for ideas. I believe in brother Mo capabilities. Nothing will happen to him.\"\nZhuang Yan’s face turned pale, and she suddenly shouted, \"Everyone, if it weren’t for brother Mo, we’d still be on that ship. Now we’re safe, but brother Mo is still alone on the ship, so I believe that as long as we go aboard the ship again, we’ll definitely be able to save brother Mo.\"\nThese words were from the heart. While Zhuang Yan was much more afraid of the ship than anyone there, but she would not be able to live with the fact that she abandoned the person that saved her life.\nThe black faced Pu Qian answered, \"Ok, let’s go save him together.\"\nBut soon the both of them discovered that only the both of them responded, and the rest of the group charged wildly at the island as though as they did not hear anything.\nZhuang Yan spoke while teared rolled down her eyes, \"Brother Pu, I thank you regardless of whether you’re willing to save brother Mo with me now. But I must go to save him, otherwise I might as well just die.\"\nWith a thumbs up, Pu Qian replied, \"Sister Zhuang Yan, while you are a woman, but you put many men to shame. Why are you still speaking, let’go together now.\"\nStanding alone on the outer deck, Mo Wuji not only failed to dispel the trap array, but instead walked into the ship while laughing coldly, \"Since you invited me in, don’t blame me for taking up the offer."

第二百一十六章
蒋夏鹏四人也发现了孟致消失不见，蒋夏鹏抓出一杆长枪对着米缸就是一枪轰下。
“哗！” 的一声脆响，血腥臭气瞬间布满了整个厨房的空间，暗褐色的血迹流淌一地。
“快走，这船诡异……”黑脸大汉叫了一声，转身第一个冲了出去。 其余三人也都是迅速跟上。
“阿弥陀佛，老衲先走一步了。” 笑和尚一冲到甲板，就直接跳向海中。
“嘭！” 虚空中，笑和尚被一种看不见的力量挡住，从空中跌落下来。
困阵？ 几人面面相觑，没有人再试。 这种看不见的困阵，根本就不是他们能解决的。
“看样子孟兄已经出事了。” 黑脸大汉莆千叹了口气，早知道这海船如此诡异，他宁可在海里呆着，也不愿意上来。
蒋夏鹏对莫无忌一抱拳问道，“莫兄最先看出来这里有问题，不知道有什么打算。”
莫无忌看了看安静的船舱，沉吟了好一会才说道，“我想大家还是再等等吧，这海船既然主动将我们都弄进来，可见必定有目的。 再说我们现在下海，情况就不见得比海船上更好多少。
我建议大家最好不要随便走散，都在这甲板上找一个地方坐下再说。” 还有一句话莫无忌没有说出来，这海船没有让他们失去行动能力，哪怕是干掉孟致也是在孟致落单的时候。
当然最主要的是，莫无忌需要时间来了解这船上的困阵。
“我同意莫兄的意思……”勾子第一个说道。
其余人虽然觉得莫无忌的话等于消极等候，但是也只能这样。 既然无法破开这船的困阵，或者说破开了船的困阵也是落在海中，还不如就留在这船上等候情况。
众人围在一个圈的范围凝坐，一边等候外面的暴雨停息，一边都是各自想着办法。
莫无忌则是直接取出储星子的阵道手抄本，专门研究困阵这一块。 对于困阵，莫无忌本来就接触过，不过当初他接触的是初级困阵，而这船上的困阵很有可能是一个中级困阵。 有了这个底子，仅仅是两天时间，莫无忌就直接找到了这海船困阵的破阵阵门。
果然和他预料的差不多，这船上的困阵是一个中级困阵。 “莫兄……”戚文宣的声音传来。
莫无忌直接收起储星子的阵道讲解，他发现其余的人都站了起来，甚至都祭出了自己的法宝。 “莫兄，我们刚刚从一个大岛边缘过去，那个大岛就是我们海图上标注的方位。 若是我们想要逃生的话，这个时候破船离开正合适。
莫无忌平平凡凡，似乎没有半点灵韵波动，却偏偏让他感觉到深不可测。
“好，不过这个困阵至少是一个中级困阵。 如果大家想要破开这个困阵，最好还是听我的。” 莫无忌点点头，也站了起来。
“莫兄，你懂阵道？” 蒋夏鹏惊喜的叫了起来。
不但是蒋夏鹏，就是其余的人也都惊喜的看着莫无忌。
别看这里很多是宗门出身，甚至大都是脱凡境修为。 精通阵道的，还真没几个。
阵道这东西就算是大宗门，也不一定能得到真正的衣钵传承，就因为太过珍贵了。 至于散修，想要精通阵道，那只能看逆天的机缘了。
当然，也许是这两个可能同时存在。
“莫大师，老衲决定还俗，成为你的衣钵弟子，将你的本领发扬光大……”笑和尚一副慷慨就义的模样，带着坚定的语气说道。
莫无忌懒得理睬这个逗逼，他直接说道，“接下来我会用刃芒指点，当我的刃芒出现在什么位置，大家要同时攻击这个位置。”
说完，莫无忌直接祭出了第一道刃芒，刃芒很清晰的落在了虚空的一个方位。
这里的人大都是脱凡境，在莫无忌轰出刃芒后，七八道法宝同时轰击在这一个方位上。
“咔！” 一声细微的声响之后，一道淡淡的裂痕出现在虚空之中。
仅仅是一次就取得了这种效果，众人对莫无忌更是信心大增。 在莫无忌第二道刃芒落下后，更大的力量轰了上去。
“咔嚓！” 在第七次众人的法宝轰在一处地方的时候，咔嚓一声脆响传出，跟着这一声脆响的是一片哗啦之声。
一股新鲜带着海风的气息传来，所有的人都忍不住欣喜惊叫。 笑和尚第一个冲了出去，落在了海上。
其余人也没有落后，纷纷冲了出去。 莫无忌是第六个冲出去的，在他后面是庄妍和齐苏苏以及黑脸大汉三人。
莫无忌刚刚跨出甲板，神念就扫到了一道漆黑还带着一丝腥臭的影子抓向了他的后背。 这影子有一股强大的阴冷波动，莫无忌不是刚刚跨入修炼界的初哥，这种阴冷波动，他立即就肯定了这里躲着一个鬼修或者是阴修。
而且这家伙还很记仇，知道是自己放走了他的血食，第一个要拿自己开刀。
他的身体空中一扭转，天机棍就被他抓在了手中。 那鬼修在看见莫无忌躲开了这一抓，似乎有些不甘心，却也知道再想抓莫无忌那是不大可能了，鬼修直接化成两道抓向了庄妍和齐苏苏。 估计是知道这两个女子好对付一些。
“啊！” 一声惨叫，齐苏苏直接被鬼修的爪影带进了船舱中，中途就在甲板上洒出了道血路。
莫无忌的神念自然扫到了这两道爪影，可惜这两道爪影速度太快，相距又远，他只能救一人。 庄妍心地不错，还提醒过他，加上靠他更近一些，莫无忌决定出手相救。
在这爪影还没有接触到庄妍的时候，莫无忌的身体在空中再次扭了一下，整个人直接上升了一丈开外，天机棍一棍轰下。
一声凄厉的惨叫，这爪影在带走了庄妍的大片衣物后，消失在船舱中。
这让莫无忌的脸色有些难看，这鬼修不是好惹的家伙。 在知道抓不住自己后，居然想办法偏移了海船，让他落下来的时候并不在海中，看样子这鬼修还没有打算放过他。 海船的困阵再次被打了起来，甲板上除了刚才齐苏苏的血迹之外，再无它物。
莫无忌知道现在要破阵只能靠他一个人了，就因为他出手救了一下庄妍，导致他自己单独被困在了海船上。
这鬼修的实力的确是有限，而且还只敢偷袭。 换句话说，之前他们九个人若不是气势弱了，凭借实力，也许就可以直接逼这个鬼修现身。 “宣哥，我们赶紧过去帮助莫大哥。”
庄妍是最清楚莫无忌为什么会被再困进海船了，莫无忌因为救她，这才会被再次困进海船中。
戚文宣安慰了一句道，“妍妍，莫兄是好人，可是我们现在没有能力去救他了，我们赶紧走吧。”
庄妍有些不敢相信的看着戚文宣继续说道，“可是宣哥，刚才是莫大哥救了我，否则的话，此刻死的是我。”
戚文宣叹了口气，指着不远处的海岛，“妍妍，我们先到海岛再想办法，相信莫兄的本事，不会有什么事情的。”
庄妍气的脸色有些发白，她忽然大声说道，“各位大哥，如果不是莫大哥，我们现在还在那海船中，现在我们得救了，可是莫大哥一个人在海船中，我相信只要我们再上去，肯定可以救的了莫大哥。”
说心里话，庄妍对那海船的害怕比这里任何人都厉害。 可是放弃一个对她有救命之恩的人，她这一辈子都过不好。
黑脸大海莆千忽然说道，“好，我们一起回去救。”
可是随即两人就发现，响应的只有他们两个，其余的人就好像没有听到一般，疯狂的冲向海岛。
庄妍流着泪说道，“莆大哥，无论你现在愿不愿意和我一起去救，我都谢谢你。 我是一定要去救莫大哥的，否则我不如死去。”
莆千一竖大拇指，“庄妍妹子，你虽为女子，却羞煞大堆男儿。 还说什么，走，我们一起过去。”
莫无忌单独站在甲板上，不但没有去破困阵，反而是走向了船舱，同时冷笑道，“这是你邀请我来的，就别怪老子不客气了。”

Chapter 216: How Many People Repay Kindness With Vengeance
Jiang Xiapeng and co. also discovered that Meng Zhi had disappeared, and Jiang Xiapeng grabbed a long spear, swinging it straight down at the rice jar.
"Bang!" A crisp sound rang through the ship, and the stench of blood instantly spread throughout the whole kitchen, leaving dark brown blood stains everywhere.
"Let’s leave quickly, this ship is weird…" The black faced man exclaimed, before turning around and charging out. The remaining three people also followed suit, and in the blink of an eye, all four of them were on the outer deck once again.
"Amitabha, Old Na will make a move first." The laughing monk jumped straight into the ocean as soon as he reached the outer deck.
"Whoosh!" In the air, the laughing monk seemed to have been blocked by an invisible force, and he fell down from the air.
A trap array? The few remaining people stared at each other, and no one attempted such an act again. This sort of invisible trap array was not something they could deal with.
"It seems like something happened to Brother Meng." Pu Qian, the black faced man, sighed. If he knew that this ship was so unusual, he would have rather remained in the ocean than to board it.
Jiang Xiapeng bowed respectfully to Mo Wuji, "Brother Mo was the first to discover something wrong with this place, so may I ask what are your plans?"
After inspecting the dead silent ship, and taking in a few deep breaths, Mo Wuji replied, "I think everyone should still wait a little longer. Since this ship brought us here by itself, it must have its goals. Moreover, we are now in the middle of the ocean, so the situation off the ship doesn’t seem much better than the one on it. I suggest for everyone to not wander off on their own, and we’ll continue this discussion after finding somewhere to sit down on the outer deck."
There was another point that Mo Wuji withheld, which was that the ship did not restrict their ability to move, even though Meng Zhi died when he was alone. As such, the ship obviously had a limited ability to hide things, and could not deal with the nine of them at the same time.
Of course, the most important thing was that he needed time to study the trap array on the ship. Only after destroying the trap array, would they have a chance to act.
"I second Brother Mo’s intentions." Gouzi was the first to respond.
Although the remaining people thought that what Mo Wuji said was simply wasting time, but that was the best they could do. Since they could not break the trap array of the ship, or rather, even if they managed to do so, they would still fall into the sea, it would better to just wait on the ship to see what would happen.
All of them formed a circle and sat down, each thinking of their own ideas while waiting for the thunderstorm to subside.
For trap arrays, he had encountered one before, but it was a elementary grade trap array, while the one on the ship was probably an intermediate grade trap array. With this foundation, in a short span of two days, Mo Wuji had already discovered the dispel point of the ship’s trap array. As expected, the trap array on the ship was an intermediate grade trap array.
Immediately, Mo Wuji kept Chu Xingzi’s introduction to arrays, and discovered that everyone else was standing up, even taking out their own treasures.
"Brother Mo, we just passed by a large island, which was a location marked on our sea maps. If we want to escape, this is a good opportunity. Why don’t we join forces to attack this trap array?" Seeing that Mo Wuji no longer studied his notes, Jiang Xiapeng spoke first.
Mo Wuji looked ordinary, and did not seem to have any spirituality, yet he gave the feeling that he was deep beyond measure.
"Sure, but this trap array is at least an intermediate grade trap array. So if everyone wants to break apart this trap array, you'd better listen to me." With a nod, Mo Wuji stood up as well.
"Brother Mo, you understand array dao?" Jiang Xiapeng exclaimed.
Not only Jiang Xiapeng, but the rest of the people stared at Mo Wuji, pleasantly surprised.
While there were many people from various sects here, and even with most of them at Transcending Mortality Stage, there weren’t many who were proficient with array dao.
Even for a big sect, something like array dao might not necessarily be passed down through the generations, because it was simply too valuable. As for rogue cultivators, it depended on luck and chance for one to become proficient in array dao. Because of this, array masters were very rare.
Of course, there was the chance that both these possibilities were playing out at the same time.
"Master Mo, Old Na has decided to secularise, and become your mantle disciple to spread and glorify your skills…" The laughing monk said sincerely, and with determination.
But Mo Wuji did not bother with this joker, and said immediately, "I will use blades to point out some spots. Everyone please attack those spots at the same time."
After finishing his sentence, Mo Wuji sent out the first blade, which landed conspicuously at a location in the air.
Most of the people here were in Transcending Mortality Stage, so after the blade was sent out, seven to eight magic treasures struck the same spot.
"Crack!" With a slight noise, a small crack appeared in midair.
The confidence that everyone had towards Mo Wuji was boosted greatly upon seeing that such a result was obtained just from the first strike. When his second blade landed, even greater power struck its position.
"Crack!" The seventh time that the group’s magic treasures hit a point in space, a crisp cracking sound echoed through the air, following which a loud shattering sound could be heard.
Fresh sea breeze blew into their faces, and all of them could not help but scream out of joy. The laughing monk leapt out first, landing in the sea.
Those left behind were no slower, as they rushed out quickly. Mo Wuji was the sixth to charge out, and behind him was Zhuang Yan, Qi Susu, and the black faced man.
Just as he crossed out of the outer deck, Mo Wuji’s spiritual will sensed a black shadow with a stench grabbing at his back. The shadow had a strong yin aura, and as he was not a newbie that just step foot in the world of cultivation, he instantly knew that there was a ghost cultivator or yin cultivator hiding there.
On top of that, this guy bore grudges, knowing that Mo Wuji had let his food go free, so he wanted to take down Mo Wuji the first.
But how would Mo Wuji, who had spiritual will, allow this ghost cultivator to catch him? With a twist of his body in the air, the Tian Ji Pole appeared in his hands. When the ghost cultivator saw that Mo Wuji had dodged, he seemed rather indignant, knowing that it wouldn’t be very possible to catch Mo Wuji ever again. The ghost cultivator split into two, one headed for Zhuang Yan and the other Qi Susu. He likely thought that these two girls would be easier to deal with.
"Ah!" A scream of terror rang out, as Qi Susu was dragged straight into the ship by the ghost cultivator, leaving a trail of blood behind on deck.
Naturally, Mo Wuji could detect both shadow claws, however they were too fast and too far away, so he could only save one person. Zhuang Yan seemed like a good person, had reminded him of certain things, and was much closer to him. Hence, he decided to lend a helping hand.
Right before the shadow claws had come into contact with Zhuang Yan, Mo Wuji spun his body in midair once again, directly lifting his body fifty metres away. Then he swung down continuously with the pole.
A bloodcurdling scream rang out, as the shadow claw took away a large piece of Zhuang Yan’s clothing before disappearing into the ship.
‘Creak’ The sound of the floorboards beneath him made Mo Wuji’s expression change for the worse. This ghost cultivator was not someone easy to deal with. After he couldn’t catch Mo Wuji, he actually tried to adjust the ship’s position such that Mo Wuji would not land in the sea. It seemed like the ghost cultivator had no plans to let Mo Wuji go.
The trap array of the ship was activated once again, causing everything other than the blood stains on the outer deck to disappear. Now Mo Wuki knew that he could only rely on himself to break this array, because he was left alone on the ship after saving Zhuang Yan.
Compared to before, the Mo Wuji now had a little more confidence. When the ghost cultivator’s shadow claw grabbed him, he hit the shadow claw once, which confirmed his suspicions. The ghost cultivator’s strength did have a limit, and he only relied on ambushes. In other words, if the nine of them were not that cowardly, they might have been able to force this ghost cultivator to reveal himself just with their strength alone.
"Brother Qi, let’s go to help brother Mo quickly." Zhuang Yan was the most aware of why Mo Wuji was trapped on the ship again. It was because he was trying to save her.
In a comforting tone, Qi Wenxuan replied, "Yanyan, brother Mo is a good man, but we don’t have the ability to save him, so let’s just leave."
Zhuang Yan looked at Qi Wenxuan in disbelief, before carrying on, "But brother Xuan, brother Mo just saved me, otherwise I would have been the dead one."
With a sigh, Qi Wenxuan pointed at the island not far away, "Yanyan, let’s go to the island first before we start brainstorming for ideas. I believe in brother Mo capabilities. Nothing will happen to him."
Zhuang Yan’s face turned pale, and she suddenly shouted, "Everyone, if it weren’t for brother Mo, we’d still be on that ship. Now we’re safe, but brother Mo is still alone on the ship, so I believe that as long as we go aboard the ship again, we’ll definitely be able to save brother Mo."
These words were from the heart. While Zhuang Yan was much more afraid of the ship than anyone there, but she would not be able to live with the fact that she abandoned the person that saved her life.
The black faced Pu Qian answered, "Ok, let’s go save him together."
But soon the both of them discovered that only the both of them responded, and the rest of the group charged wildly at the island as though as they did not hear anything.
Zhuang Yan spoke while teared rolled down her eyes, "Brother Pu, I thank you regardless of whether you’re willing to save brother Mo with me now. But I must go to save him, otherwise I might as well just die."
With a thumbs up, Pu Qian replied, "Sister Zhuang Yan, while you are a woman, but you put many men to shame. Why are you still speaking, let’go together now."
Standing alone on the outer deck, Mo Wuji not only failed to dispel the trap array, but instead walked into the ship while laughing coldly, "Since you invited me in, don’t blame me for taking up the offer.

The warm rain had tapered off, leaving only a hair-fine drizzle wafting through the white fog, and this made everyone uncomfortable as their half-dried clothes clung onto their bodies.\nUnder such a peculiar “hot bath”-like weather, everything seemed like it would take double the effort to complete. It created an atmosphere where everyone couldn’t help feeling a little lethargic. This was the reason why Li Zhijun was lazing around like a sloth, doing nothing.\n“Are you going to come with me?” Hei Zeji, standing not far from him, shouted. Hei Zeji’s body was surprisingly dry.\n“Come on… Let me rest for a while more…” Li Zhijun showed his listless face, “Besides, being wet is super uncomfortable…” Li Zhijun had always hated rain. Without the same abilities as his companion, Li Zhijun had no choice but to squint his eyes as he suffered the torture of each raindrop. There was no sign of his usual poise; instead, he looked like a wet little dog. He scanned the area in his sorry state. “Why don’t we look for a place to hide from this rain?”\n“There is currently only one activated Pocket Dimension nearby. Do you want to enter?” Hei Zeji asked as he lifted a brow, expressing some tolerance toward Li Zhijun.\nLi Zhijun’s eyes immediately brightened. “What sort of Pocket Dimension is it?”\n“It’s a game-type Pocket Dimension. I’ll wait for you at the entrance.”\nLi Zhijun’s face instantly reverted to its previous listless expression. Entering a game-type Pocket Dimension meant walking into a trap directly. He would have to clear every stage with those unlucky people who were currently in it before he could come out… Even having a high combative advantage, did not mean much in such a Pocket Dimension.\nHe pulled himself up, sighing in despair. He took out a single small lens from nowhere and peered through it with one eye into the white fog just some distance away. “Huh? It is an open-air game-type Pocket Dimension. The host of this Pocket Dimension must be a cheapskate… Oh, it looks quite interesting. It seems like they’re celebrating the New Year… Huh?”\nHe put down the lens in his hand and turned to look at Hei Zeji saying, “Your same species is in there.”\nHis bad-tempered companion retorted with throbbing veins, “Don’t use a term like ‘same species’!” Pausing for a moment, Hei Zeji eyes drifted afar. “Isn’t that woman too unlucky? She actually got drawn into two Pocket Dimensions in such a short time…”\nEven though both were discussing about Lin Sanjiu who was trapped not far from them, they didn’t show any intention to go over to help. Li Zhijun kept the lens properly and started walking in the opposite direction of the Pocket Dimension. Just then, he commented lazily, “Anyway, it must be difficult for you, Growth types.”\n“Each of you has such Potential Growth Value, but you are all weaklings during the initial phase. Those abilities are really useless… That woman, what was her ability? Umm, storing items into cards, right?”\nHei Zeji wanted to refute what he said, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that Lin Sanjiu’s card ability could only be used as a glorified backpack.\n“I heard a rumor that many Growth types don’t survive past three worlds because they are too weak at the start…” Li Zhijun looked over at Hei Zeji inquisitively, “Is it true?”\n“Yes,” the man answered even though he was clearly offended.\n“What was your first ability?” Li Zhijun edged closer to Hei Zeji as his eyes sparkled with interest. “Aren’t there quite a few Growth-types in some of those high-level worlds? How did they survive? And, how did you survive?”\n“If I answer you, will you stop being so annoying?”\nLi Zhijun smiled happily and nodded.\n“Basically, all of the powerful Growth-types survive their initial phase with the help of things.” As if recalling something from his past, Hei Zeji threw a glance at the Pocket Dimension which was getting further and further away from them. “For Growth-types, their first ability usually has little combat value, so they have to rely on Special Items or companions to survive. If we look at it from another perspective, they need luck.”\nHe lowered his head and looked at his left hand. There was a deep cross-shaped scar on his muscular forearm. “But at that time, I had neither of those.”\n“Huh? Then, how did you survive?” Li Zhijun was astonished, “I remembered that the world you were originally from was a—”\n“It was an A-level world,” Hei Zeji finished Li Zhijun’s sentence as if he knew what his companion wanted to say. He continued, “While trying to survive, I gradually gained some insights about killing.”\nLi Zhijun stopped walking. “Ah Ji, what were you before the New World descended.”\n“A normal high school student,” after saying that, Hei Zeji ignored the startled expression behind him and continued walking straight ahead.\n“Hey, wait up!” Li Zhijun shouted and quickly chased up to him. Very quickly, they both disappeared into the fog…\nLin Sanjiu did not know this, but she was actually considered quite lucky. At that moment, Lin Sanjiu stared at the wooden chest in front of her, she was stunned, and her mouth was wide open.\nIndividual Prize 1: That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world. Individual Prize 2: A bag of cat litter.\nWhen Lin Sanjiu opened the chest, she saw a fast-food container covered with beautiful drawings and a bag of cat litter on top of it. When she walked closer and listened, she heard a gentle, delicate laughter beside the bag of cat litter, as if it was some sort of paranormal encounter. As if expressed the “missing” factor, all three items — including that voice — was stuffed to the left of the chest, leaving an empty space on the right.\nIf she didn’t stick her hands into the chest to touch the items, changing them into cards, Lin Sanjiu would probably think that Mr. Dot missed out an item. From this collection, she could tell that the item the team lost was B.Rabbit’s leather collar.\n“What a pity… that white leather collar was quite cute…” Before Mr. Dot prompted her to leave, she asked, “Mr. Dot, do I have the authority to decide what to do with these individual prizes?”\n“Of course, they already belong to you.”\nAfter getting the reply she expected, Lin Sanjiu stood up and read the four cards as she slowly walked out.\n[That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world] A Special Item from the New World\nDescription: As a gentle breeze blew, a sweet teenage girl laughed gently as she looked at her first love. Ah! Just a sound is what you’ll consider a priceless treasure… This precious item was retrieved from the memories of a pathetic 35-year-old single man, who never dated after the end of his first relationship at 16.\nInstructions: When[That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world]is activated, it will affect the males who can hear it. The number of times this item can be used is dependent on how many times the user had been in love. Single dogs[1] who have never been in any relationship before should just give up on this item.\nEffect: This will remove any killing intent, hatred, tyranny… from the hearts of the listeners. Once they hear that teenage girl’s innocent and beautiful voice, their inner thoughts will be cleansed for one minute, and within that minute, they will not have any ill intentions.\nRemarks: This has totally no effect on females.\n“Was this name given to this item to bring up the word count…” Lin Sanjiu said, and she looked at another card.\n[Cat Litter]\nDescription: Animals in the feline family would cover their excretion with soil to hide their scent and whereabouts. Even though the color (bright orange) of this Cat Litter doesn’t look like it can camouflage into any sort of environment, it can mysteriously conceal the user’s tracks.\nInstructions: Sprinkle a thin layer of cat litter over the place where you’ve walked passed or stayed, and with that, even super-elite hunters will not be able to find you.\nRemarks: There are only 5 liters, so when you finish it, it’s gone.\nDescription: This container is decorated with a myriad of colors and patterns, mixed with drawings of human eyes and skeleton. The design clearly strives to express a psychedelic vision that one only gets after eating magic mushrooms. There is a yellow warning label at the left corner of the box stating: “Toxic, do not consume.” If you open the container, you will see a delicious-looking bento with an onion omelet, fried pork trotters, stir-fried Chinese broccoli and steam rice.\nInstructions: Put it into your mouth and chew with your molars.\nEffect: The person who eats this will die.\nRemark: Only those who have seen the packaging can see the bento inside. It is impossible to feed someone this bento if you throw away or remove the packaging.\n[Oh My God! My wallet is missing!]\nDescription: After taking the legendary Bus Route 300, he realized that his pants were stolen. Thus, the pathetic 35-year-old man was unable to meet his date in time. As he wallowed in his grief, this item was created from his intense emotions.\nInstructions: After you ask your target, “Have you ever taken Bus Route 300 before?”, this item will be activated.\nEffect: The targeted party will share the experience of losing everything. This will freeze the target’s Special Items for 15 minutes. The target will not be able to use their Special Items for 15 minutes.\nRemarks: In principle, this is an item with unlimited use. However, it cannot be used on the same person twice.\nLin Sanjiu’s mouth twitched, and she was stunned when she suddenly thought of something. This item and[ That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world]was clearly of the same… series. So, there was a high possibility that it came from the same person. When she thought about it, the owner of both items was obviously Zhong Junkai since no one had the reason to offer two items.\n[He has that many items?] Lin Sanjiu pondered to herself as she walked out from the white fog. The moment she stepped out of the white fog, Mr. Dot announced, “Has everyone prepared themselves to participate in the next game?”"

第77章
氤氲于天地间的水湿热汽，不但叫人感觉有点上不来气，看东西也总是雾雾蒙蒙的，好像一直身处于冬天里的洗澡间似的。 热雨的雨势小了不少，像牛毛一样丝丝缕缕地飘散在白雾里，使人身上的衣服半干半湿地发粘，反而变得更难受了。
在这样奇特的“热水澡间”天气下，感觉无论做什么事都要花双倍力气，不免就让人懒洋洋地不想动。 所以此刻离之君才会像一只树懒似的，软趴趴的，没有干劲。
“你到底走不走了？” 不知道为什么仍然全身干爽的黑泽忌，在他不远处冲他喊了一声。
生平最讨厌下雨的离之君，却偏偏没有同伴那样的能力，只能眯着眼忍受着每一根雨丝对他的折磨。 他平时的风度此刻已经全都不见了，像只淋湿了的小狗似的，狼狈地左右张望着：“咱们还是去找个地方避避雨吧？”
“这附近只有一个正在进行中的副本，你是打算进去么？” 黑泽忌挑起一边眉毛，带着几分隐忍地说。
离之君一双眼睛顿时亮了：“忌爷允么？”
“那是一个游戏型副本……我在门口等你。”
离之君的脸顿时又垮了下来。 要是进了游戏型副本，基本就是自投罗网，非得陪着里面的倒霉人物一起闯了所有的关以后才能出来……就算武力高，也是一点儿用场也派不上。
他唉声叹气地爬起身，不知从哪儿掏出了一个小小的单只镜片，眯起了一只眼，用另一只眼睛朝不远处的白雾中望去——“啊？ 居然还是一个露天的游戏副本，这个副本主持人真穷酸……嗯，好像还挺有意思的，似乎在迎接新年呢……咦？”
他放下了手里的镜片。 转头对黑泽忌说了一声：“你的那个同类也在里面。”
他这位脾气不是特别好的同伴，青筋不由跳了跳：“别用同类这种词！” 顿了顿，他也有点疑惑地朝远方扫了一眼：“那女人也太倒霉了吧？
虽然二人正讨论着不远处身陷囫囵的林三酒，不过行动上却一点都没有要去帮忙的意思——离之君把镜片重新装好。 朝副本的反方向迈开了步子，这才慢条斯理地说：“……话说回来，你们这些成长型的人也真不容易。”
黑泽忌“唔”了一声。 “明明每一个人都有那么高的潜力值，可是初期却全都是弱鸡，能力一个比一个没用……那女孩的能力是什么来着？ 噢噢。
黑泽忌本能地想反驳，但是想了想，却发现林三酒的卡片目前似乎真的只能当背包来用。
“我听说，就是因为成长型初期太弱了，所以很多都活不过头三个世界……？”
一脸不爽的男人还是应了一声。
“你初期的能力是什么来着？” 离之君亮晶晶的眼睛靠得更近了：“现在在高难度的世界里，不还是有不少成长型的人吗？ 他们是怎么活下来的？
“……我说了你就能安分了吗？”
离之君笑逐颜开地点了点头。
“……基本上现在所有强大的成长型，初期都是靠着两个条件活下来的。” 仿佛被勾起了什么回忆似的，黑泽忌朝身后越来越远的副本扫了一眼。
他低头看了看自己的左手。 从手腕到手肘这一段距离，肌肉线条流畅有力的小臂上，却嵌着一个深深的十字型伤疤——“只不过这两样东西，我当年一个也没有。”
“咦？ 那你是怎么生存下来的啊？” “是个A级世界。”
黑泽忌好像知道他要说什么似的，接了话：“……只不过在求生的过程中，我对杀人慢慢有了些心得而已。”
“……阿忌，你在新世界降临之前是干什么的？”
“……普通高中生。” 说完，黑泽忌没有理会身后投来的愕然目光。 径直朝前走去。
身后的同伴赶忙叫了一声“你等等我”，就追了上去。 很快，二人的身影就消失在了白雾飘渺的天地间。
此时的她正震惊地盯着面前的木箱。 嘴巴张成了O型。
私人奖励4：糟糕！ 在林三酒打开箱子的时候，一份画着艳丽图案的快餐盒就是这样被一袋猫砂压在了下面。
如果凑过去仔细听的话，还能听见一个细微的、柔美的嗓音，正在猫砂袋旁边轻声地笑，简直如同闹鬼。 仿佛是为了突出“不见了”这个主题。 三个东西（声音也算吗？
）都挤在了箱子的右边，留出了左边的一块空荡荡的地方。 如果不是她试着伸手进去把摸到的东西都变成了卡片的话，说不定林三酒还会以为点先生少给了她一样东西呢。
“那个白色的皮圈还挺可爱的呢……真可惜……”林三酒在点先生催她回去以前，便出声问道：“点先生，请问我有随意处置私人奖励的权力吗？”
“……当然，它们已经是你的东西了。”
得到了这个意料之中的答案以后，林三酒站起身，一边慢慢往外走一边看起了四张卡。
介绍：陷入初恋的甜蜜少女，在微风的吹拂下，朝自己的心上人轻柔地笑了起来。 啊！
这样的声音。 真可谓是无价之宝……这一件，是由16岁结束初恋以后就再也没有恋爱过的35岁可悲男子，从往日记忆中提取的珍贵物品。
使用方法：把【在樱花飘落的时节你甜美的笑声仿佛柔软了世界】激活，即可对听见本物品的男性生效。 本物品可使用次数等于使用者本人所经历的恋爱次数。
作用：赶走听者心中一切杀意、仇恨、暴虐……等负面情绪，只要一听到纯真少女美丽的嗓音，心灵就会被洗净1分钟，什么坏念头也没有了。
备注：对女性完——全没有效果。
“叫这种名字真的不是为了凑字数吗……”林三酒说着，拿起了下一张卡。
介绍：猫科动物在排便后。
为了掩盖自己的气味和行踪，会使用土将排泄物埋起来。 尽管这一袋猫砂的颜色（亮橙色）无论跟什么环境都不一样，但是却依然能神奇地掩盖住使用者的踪迹。
使用方法：在自己走过或呆过的地方撒一把薄薄的猫砂，这样就连顶尖的猎人也找不到你了。
备注：容量5公升，用完拉倒。
“虽然很方便，但总有种微妙的被骂了的感觉。 介绍：包装盒上布满了艳丽的颜色和花纹，夹杂着人眼和骷髅的图案，力求给人一种毒蘑菇的即视感。 盒子右下角用黄色警告标志写着“有毒，不能食用”
使用方法：放入口中。 以臼齿咀嚼。
功效：吃下去的人会死。
备注：只有看过了包装纸的人，才能看见饭菜。 想要扔掉包装盒，只把饭菜给某人吃，是行不通的。
“……那还有个屁用啊！” 【糟糕！
介绍：坐完了一圈传说中的300路公交车以后，一摸身上，发现连裤兜都被偷走了。 因此而无法赶赴约会的35岁可悲男子，在悲啸以后，提取出了这份激昂的心情制成了本物品。
使用方法：问敌对目标“你坐过300路吗？” ，本物品即可发动。
功效：让对方也感受到被偷个溜光的心情——使敌对目标身上所有特殊物品被冻结1小时，1小时内无法使用。
也就是说，来自同一个人的可能性很大。
……这么一想，除了钟俊凯，别人都没有交两件物品的必要。
真是财大气粗啊……林三酒调整好表情，神色淡淡地走出了白雾。 就在她踏出雾气的一刹那，点先生也说话了：“大家准备好参加第二轮游戏了吗？”

Chapter 77
The air was filled with steam, making it a little difficult to breathe. Everything looked hazy like being in the bathroom during winter. The warm rain had tapered off, leaving only a hair-fine drizzle wafting through the white fog, and this made everyone uncomfortable as their half-dried clothes clung onto their bodies.
Under such a peculiar “hot bath”-like weather, everything seemed like it would take double the effort to complete. It created an atmosphere where everyone couldn’t help feeling a little lethargic. This was the reason why Li Zhijun was lazing around like a sloth, doing nothing.
“Are you going to come with me?” Hei Zeji, standing not far from him, shouted. Hei Zeji’s body was surprisingly dry.
“Come on… Let me rest for a while more…” Li Zhijun showed his listless face, “Besides, being wet is super uncomfortable…” Li Zhijun had always hated rain. Without the same abilities as his companion, Li Zhijun had no choice but to squint his eyes as he suffered the torture of each raindrop. There was no sign of his usual poise; instead, he looked like a wet little dog. He scanned the area in his sorry state. “Why don’t we look for a place to hide from this rain?”
“There is currently only one activated Pocket Dimension nearby. Do you want to enter?” Hei Zeji asked as he lifted a brow, expressing some tolerance toward Li Zhijun.
Li Zhijun’s eyes immediately brightened. “What sort of Pocket Dimension is it?”
“It’s a game-type Pocket Dimension. I’ll wait for you at the entrance.”
Li Zhijun’s face instantly reverted to its previous listless expression. Entering a game-type Pocket Dimension meant walking into a trap directly. He would have to clear every stage with those unlucky people who were currently in it before he could come out… Even having a high combative advantage, did not mean much in such a Pocket Dimension.
He pulled himself up, sighing in despair. He took out a single small lens from nowhere and peered through it with one eye into the white fog just some distance away. “Huh? It is an open-air game-type Pocket Dimension. The host of this Pocket Dimension must be a cheapskate… Oh, it looks quite interesting. It seems like they’re celebrating the New Year… Huh?”
He put down the lens in his hand and turned to look at Hei Zeji saying, “Your same species is in there.”
His bad-tempered companion retorted with throbbing veins, “Don’t use a term like ‘same species’!” Pausing for a moment, Hei Zeji eyes drifted afar. “Isn’t that woman too unlucky? She actually got drawn into two Pocket Dimensions in such a short time…”
Even though both were discussing about Lin Sanjiu who was trapped not far from them, they didn’t show any intention to go over to help. Li Zhijun kept the lens properly and started walking in the opposite direction of the Pocket Dimension. Just then, he commented lazily, “Anyway, it must be difficult for you, Growth types.”
“Each of you has such Potential Growth Value, but you are all weaklings during the initial phase. Those abilities are really useless… That woman, what was her ability? Umm, storing items into cards, right?”
Hei Zeji wanted to refute what he said, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that Lin Sanjiu’s card ability could only be used as a glorified backpack.
“I heard a rumor that many Growth types don’t survive past three worlds because they are too weak at the start…” Li Zhijun looked over at Hei Zeji inquisitively, “Is it true?”
“Yes,” the man answered even though he was clearly offended.
“What was your first ability?” Li Zhijun edged closer to Hei Zeji as his eyes sparkled with interest. “Aren’t there quite a few Growth-types in some of those high-level worlds? How did they survive? And, how did you survive?”
“If I answer you, will you stop being so annoying?”
Li Zhijun smiled happily and nodded.
“Basically, all of the powerful Growth-types survive their initial phase with the help of things.” As if recalling something from his past, Hei Zeji threw a glance at the Pocket Dimension which was getting further and further away from them. “For Growth-types, their first ability usually has little combat value, so they have to rely on Special Items or companions to survive. If we look at it from another perspective, they need luck.”
He lowered his head and looked at his left hand. There was a deep cross-shaped scar on his muscular forearm. “But at that time, I had neither of those.”
“Huh? Then, how did you survive?” Li Zhijun was astonished, “I remembered that the world you were originally from was a—”
“It was an A-level world,” Hei Zeji finished Li Zhijun’s sentence as if he knew what his companion wanted to say. He continued, “While trying to survive, I gradually gained some insights about killing.”
Li Zhijun stopped walking. “Ah Ji, what were you before the New World descended.”
“A normal high school student,” after saying that, Hei Zeji ignored the startled expression behind him and continued walking straight ahead.
“Hey, wait up!” Li Zhijun shouted and quickly chased up to him. Very quickly, they both disappeared into the fog…
Lin Sanjiu did not know this, but she was actually considered quite lucky. At that moment, Lin Sanjiu stared at the wooden chest in front of her, she was stunned, and her mouth was wide open.
Individual Prize 1: That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world. Individual Prize 2: A bag of cat litter.
When Lin Sanjiu opened the chest, she saw a fast-food container covered with beautiful drawings and a bag of cat litter on top of it. When she walked closer and listened, she heard a gentle, delicate laughter beside the bag of cat litter, as if it was some sort of paranormal encounter. As if expressed the “missing” factor, all three items — including that voice — was stuffed to the left of the chest, leaving an empty space on the right.
If she didn’t stick her hands into the chest to touch the items, changing them into cards, Lin Sanjiu would probably think that Mr. Dot missed out an item. From this collection, she could tell that the item the team lost was B.Rabbit’s leather collar.
“What a pity… that white leather collar was quite cute…” Before Mr. Dot prompted her to leave, she asked, “Mr. Dot, do I have the authority to decide what to do with these individual prizes?”
“Of course, they already belong to you.”
After getting the reply she expected, Lin Sanjiu stood up and read the four cards as she slowly walked out.
[That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world] A Special Item from the New World
Description: As a gentle breeze blew, a sweet teenage girl laughed gently as she looked at her first love. Ah! Just a sound is what you’ll consider a priceless treasure… This precious item was retrieved from the memories of a pathetic 35-year-old single man, who never dated after the end of his first relationship at 16.
Instructions: When[That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world]is activated, it will affect the males who can hear it. The number of times this item can be used is dependent on how many times the user had been in love. Single dogs[1] who have never been in any relationship before should just give up on this item.
Effect: This will remove any killing intent, hatred, tyranny… from the hearts of the listeners. Once they hear that teenage girl’s innocent and beautiful voice, their inner thoughts will be cleansed for one minute, and within that minute, they will not have any ill intentions.
Remarks: This has totally no effect on females.
“Was this name given to this item to bring up the word count…” Lin Sanjiu said, and she looked at another card.
[Cat Litter]
Description: Animals in the feline family would cover their excretion with soil to hide their scent and whereabouts. Even though the color (bright orange) of this Cat Litter doesn’t look like it can camouflage into any sort of environment, it can mysteriously conceal the user’s tracks.
Instructions: Sprinkle a thin layer of cat litter over the place where you’ve walked passed or stayed, and with that, even super-elite hunters will not be able to find you.
Remarks: There are only 5 liters, so when you finish it, it’s gone.
Description: This container is decorated with a myriad of colors and patterns, mixed with drawings of human eyes and skeleton. The design clearly strives to express a psychedelic vision that one only gets after eating magic mushrooms. There is a yellow warning label at the left corner of the box stating: “Toxic, do not consume.” If you open the container, you will see a delicious-looking bento with an onion omelet, fried pork trotters, stir-fried Chinese broccoli and steam rice.
Instructions: Put it into your mouth and chew with your molars.
Effect: The person who eats this will die.
Remark: Only those who have seen the packaging can see the bento inside. It is impossible to feed someone this bento if you throw away or remove the packaging.
[Oh My God! My wallet is missing!]
Description: After taking the legendary Bus Route 300, he realized that his pants were stolen. Thus, the pathetic 35-year-old man was unable to meet his date in time. As he wallowed in his grief, this item was created from his intense emotions.
Instructions: After you ask your target, “Have you ever taken Bus Route 300 before?”, this item will be activated.
Effect: The targeted party will share the experience of losing everything. This will freeze the target’s Special Items for 15 minutes. The target will not be able to use their Special Items for 15 minutes.
Remarks: In principle, this is an item with unlimited use. However, it cannot be used on the same person twice.
Lin Sanjiu’s mouth twitched, and she was stunned when she suddenly thought of something. This item and[ That spring, when the cherry blossoms fell, your sweet laughter melted my world]was clearly of the same… series. So, there was a high possibility that it came from the same person. When she thought about it, the owner of both items was obviously Zhong Junkai since no one had the reason to offer two items.
[He has that many items?] Lin Sanjiu pondered to herself as she walked out from the white fog. The moment she stepped out of the white fog, Mr. Dot announced, “Has everyone prepared themselves to participate in the next game?”

"value": "Chapter 129 - Give Him the Additional Wages\nAs the gold medal financial analyst of the Finance Department, being commanded to pour water for a little sales rep made Lin Shuai so angry he wanted to kill someone. He said unhappily, “Why do I have to pour water for you? I think you should explain your vile behavior first.”\n“I was just about to explain so that's why I told you to pour water… I'm thirsty, I have to finish drinking the water before I can speak. Hurry and go.”\n“Huh? Why are you still not going? Didn't you say Assistant Han was right and I need to give everyone an explanation? Now that I want to explain, you're not letting me. You clearly mean to oppose Assistant Han… Cricket, do you hate Assistant Han? Are you trying to intentionally go against her?”\nLin Shuai jumped in shock. He hurriedly looked at Han Ying Ying and explained: “Assistant Han, don't listen to this brat’s nonsense, I don't have anything against you. I admire you… Whether it be your beauty or your outstanding ability.”\nLin Shuai lived up to his name as a genius player. No wonder he was able to climb from the position of a little assistant financial analyst to the position of a gold medal financial analyst after only being in Royal Group for less than two months. The effort he placed in his explanation was incidentally enough to be an surreptitious confession.\nOnce these words came out, Han Ying Ying sighed deeply and retracted her charming smile. Her expression fell: “Manager Lin, hurry and go pour the water.”\nLin Shuai looked like he was dizzy from being struck in the head. He would have never thought that Han Ying Ying would agree to Qin Feng’s shameless and disrespectful request. However, reality was that Han Ying Ying had spoken: she told him to pour water for this sales representative Qin Feng. Though he was reluctant, Lin Shuai ended up gritting his teeth and getting the water for Qin Feng under the countless gazes of the audience.\nQin Feng took the water and immediately splashed it onto the ground: “Wow, it took half a day of fussing around to pour water. Now I'm no longer thirsty.”\n“Qin Feng, you…”\n“Qin Feng, give everyone an explanation now.” Han Ying Ying requested again. Once she spoke, the noisy cafeteria immediately fell quiet.\n“Of course I’ll give everyone a statement. But, this is not an explanation, it’s a critique.” Qin Feng stood in the crowd with seriousness. He stood perfectly straight like a javelin, and his voice was loud and clear.\n“In this restless and robust society, we were all able to become members of Royal Group and coworkers that work hard together. This is something to be elated about. This is a warm and secure family; it's one where we can all develop our own places to shine. Here, we splash down every drop of the sweat of our youth and withstand hard work and criticism.\n“We’re all the lowest-leveled ordinary employees that do the hardest work. We must withstand the most abuse and questioning, and we get the lowest wages. But, we haven't given up; we’re all doing our best to fight on… However, even when we’re eating lunch, the cafeteria has to be split by ranks and grades. Hungry ordinary employees like us who were busy all morning are given unappetizing food from a communal rice pot, while these higher-leveled people who played games and only took two calls in the morning aren't hungry but eat a more nutritious and luxurious meal.”\n“My behavior at first was crazy indeed, but my thoughts are simple. I need to tear down this separated relationship; this wall that has divided our trusting and loving family. When we eat and rest, we should throw away status and all be good friends. We should not separated by status. Instead, we should happily eat and talk together.”\n“Now, there are only 3 glass walls left. Those that agree with me can come over and kick them down.”\nWhen Qin Feng’s words fell, these people were all in shock. The audience from the ordinary employee area’s hearts surged and their blood boiled. On the other hand, the audience in the high class area’s hearts frosted over and their expressions turned cold.\n“Hahaha, are you staging a peasant revolt? You're crazy, you can’t break through to the ordinary and high class sections. The high class section isn’t only for us managers to eat in. When guests come to the company, we also have to receive them there. Otherwise, you’d let these important customers eat with you ordinary employees? Royal Group can’t afford to lose these people.”\n“That's enough. Separating the cafeteria was Chairman Qin’s idea. It's too laughable for a mere sales representative to want to be a leader. Haha!” Lin Shuai was the first to step up to oppose Qin Feng. He began to laugh without restraint.\nThen, Wang Chao laughed, Xiao Zhang laughed, and over ten managers and supervisors in the high class area began to laugh. This wall formed a castle that indicated status. It blocked off the ordinary employees and kept them outside to revere them and yearn to be in their position. Who wouldn’t want to experience that lofty feeling?\n“Haha,” Han Ying Ying laughed as well. It wasn’t a laugh in ridicule, but a charming laugh that she directed at Qin Feng. Then, her strong and icy voice rang out: “You all think it’s funny do you? I actually think that what Qin Feng said was quite sensible. I’ll make sure to relay it to Chairman Qin.”\nThe laughs came to an abrupt stop. The upper-leveled employees stared flabbergasted at Han Ying Ying. As Chairman Qin’s assistant, she had a position of significance. These people didn’t dare to offend her.\n“Right, Assistant Han is right. Qin Feng’s idea expresses the sentiments of the countless low-leveled employees in the company. We should value it.” The second person to stand in Qin Feng’s procession was Wang Jun. After expressing his sentiments, he looked at Qin Feng in another attempt to curry favor with him.\nLin Shuai had originally come here to give Han Ying Ying a good impression of him and to get in her good graces. Now, he was slapped ruthlessly in the face. He was so angry that his neck turned red. He wanted to stand up and protest to salvage some face when a deep and robust sound arose in the cafeteria. All of the gazes instantly flitted over to look. Once they were able to clearly see who it was, their jaws fell to the ground in shock.\nClap clap!\nQin Huang, accompanied by two directors, walked over while clapping his hands: “Hm? This lad’s suggestion is quite profound and remarkable. Why don’t we all give him a round of applause?”\nAfter an extended silence, an earth-shattering applause rumbled through the cafeteria.\nNow that Chairman Qin stood out and expressed his opinion, whether it be the employees in the ordinary employee section or the high-class section, everyone pasted a smile on their face and cheered and applauded with all their might.\n“Cricket, Wang Chao, Ass-kisser. You three opposed my suggestion earlier, why are you clapping? A man of character should stand by his words, he shouldn’t succumb to the pressure of the powerful,” Qin Feng smiled while he said this to the three.\nThe three of them had their hearts pierced with arrows. It hurt so much they couldn’t speak.\n“Qin Feng, you’re too amazing, I’m happy for you.” Xu Ruo Rou pranced excitedly to Qin Feng’s side. She felt the same way about this issue of dividing the cafeteria, but didn’t have the guts to express her sentiments.\nJust as not all milk is Milk Deluxe, not all people can become hedonists.\n“Okay, everyone quiet down.” Qin Huang waved his hands and indicated for everyone to be quiet.\nThe atmosphere that was as bustling as the Chinese New Year special instantly quieted. Qin Huang’s smile swept over every person. He said steadily: “I think this young lad’s suggestion is very good, and your strong reaction shows that you also agree. Then, beginning from today, the employee cafeteria will no longer be partitioned. Everyone will eat the same food and enjoy the same lunch benefits.”\nAfter hearing Qin Huang’s decision, the normal employees felt as though they were dreaming. This feeling of bliss arrived too quickly. When they thought about the wonderful food in the high class area such as the steak banquet and French cuisine, they immediately began to drool.\nTheir gazes simultaneously fell on Qin Feng. He brought on all of this. In their eyes, Qin Feng was this lofty. He was like light; wherever he was, brightness and pleasure followed.\nThen, Qin Huang said a couple more sentences and let everyone eat. He went beside Qin Feng and glared at him while no one was paying attention: “Stinking brat, was there a need to cause such a ruckus when all we had to do was get rid of the divider separating the sections in the cafeteria? You could’ve just called me and we’d be done with it.”\n“Chairman Qin, as a little sales representative in the company, how would I know your phone number? Even if I called, you would ignore me,” Qin Feng said casually.\nQin Huang’s expression darkened. He was about to get angry. But, after thinking for a bit, what Qin Feng said made a lot of sense.\n“You did pretty well this time. Keep up the good work!” In the end, Qin Huang said a couple of sentences in praise.\nWhen he heard Qin Feng’s passionate speech earlier, a large wave also swelled through his heart. He felt comforted as he watched his son standing among the lower-leveled employees and thinking on their behalf.\nA good leader and a successful company must begin looking at the interests of its lowest leveled employees. They must try their best to share the company’s warm attitude with them so the company could be long-lived.\n“You all eat, I’ll be leaving first.” Chairman Qin’s gaze briefly met with Han Ying Ying and Xu Ruo Rou’s, and he prepared to leave.\n“Chairman Qin, I’ve done such a great thing, aren’t you going to reward me?” Qin Feng asked.\nQin Huang stopped in his tracks. He looked at Qin Feng, was quiet for a brief instant, and said to the Property Director: “Director Huang, this youth kicked down nine glass walls. According to the price of tearing down walls, calculate the pay and add it to his current month’s salary.”\nQin Feng’s mouth quirked as he watched Qin Huang’s receding back.\nHan Ying Ying and Xu Ruo Rou stood on each side of Qin Feng. At this time, they tilted their faces and tried hard to pretend nothing was wrong, but one could tell from their shaking delicate bodies that they were laughing really hard.\nQin Feng eyed the two women and walked directly up beside Wang Chao: “Group Leader Wang, it seems that I won’t be able to bring food over from the high class dining area for you to try… Because there’s now no such thing as the high class dining area.”\n“Hmph, a lowly person intoxicated by success.” Wang Chao left with a dark expression.\nXiao Zhang glared at Qin Feng and immediately followed: “Don’t be happy too early, I’ll teach you a lesson in the future.”\n“Ass-kisser, walk properly.” Qin Feng looked at the two leaving backs and waved his hand.\nWhen Xiao Zhang heard “Ass-kisser,” he stumbled and almost fell to the ground."

第一百二十九章
林帅作为金融部的金牌分析师，如今被一个销售部的小小销售员，命令着去给他倒水，这会气的都想要杀人了，阴测测的说道。 “我为什么要给你倒水，你还是先解释一下，你这恶劣行为的事情吧。”
“我就是准备解释这件事情，才让你倒水的嘛……我口渴了，要喝完水才能说话，快去吧。”
你刚才不是说韩助理说的对，我需要给大家一个解释。 现在我要解释了，你又不让我解释，你这明显是在反对韩助理的意思……蟋蟀，莫非你很讨厌韩助理，故意来针对她的？”
林帅吓了一跳，连忙朝着韩盈盈解释道：“韩助理，你千万别听这小子胡说，我对你没有任何看法，我很仰慕你……无论是你的美貌，还是你出色的能力。”
林帅不愧是天才型选手，也难怪才来皇室集团不到两个月的时间，就能从分析师住手爬到金牌分析师的职位，他解释的功夫，都能顺带着暗中跟韩盈盈表白。
这暗藏玄机的话一出口，底下唏嘘一片，韩盈盈妩媚的笑容收住，脸色沉了下来：“林经理，快去倒水吧。”
林帅像是被人当头一棒，敲得有些迷糊，他万万没有想到，秦枫这种无礼甚至无耻的要求，韩盈盈也会答应。 可事实韩盈盈已经开口了，让自己去给秦枫这个销售员倒水，心思虽然很不情愿，但林帅最终还是一咬牙，在众目睽睽之下，给秦枫接了杯水过来。
秦枫接过水杯，直接洒在了地上：“唉，倒个水都墨迹老半天的功夫，我现在又不渴了。”
“秦枫，现在跟大家解释一下吧。”
“我当然会给大家一个说法，但这不是解释，而是一次批判。”
秦枫神色严肃的站在人群中，身杆笔直如同标枪，声音洪亮如洪钟。 “在这浮躁繁华的社会中，我们大家能够成为皇室集团的一员，成为一起工作努力的同事，这是一件让人亢奋的事情。
这是一个温暖又有保障的大家庭，是一个能够让大家发挥展现自己的舞台，在这里，我们挥洒着每一滴青春的汗水，任劳任怨。” “我们都是最底层的普通员工，干着最累的活，忍受着最多的辱骂和质疑，却拿着最低的工资。
但是我们没有放弃，我们依旧在努力在奋斗……可是，现在连中午吃个饭，食堂都要分个三六九等，让我们这些忙碌了半天，饿坏了肚子的普通员工，吃着没有胃口的大锅饭。 那些一早上就打了两个电话，玩了十局斗地/主的高层，并不饥饿却吃着更丰富营养的美食。”
“我刚才的行为的确很疯狂，但我的想法很简单，我要打通这堵隔绝大家关系，隔绝了我们这个大家庭相信相爱的城墙，让我们能在吃饭休息的时候，抛开身份，都像是好朋友一样，不分身份，坐在一起开心的聊天吃饭。”
“现在，这里还剩下三面玻璃墙，有跟我想法一致的，可以过来，用力的踹到它们。”
秦枫话音落下，这些人却还没从震撼中回过神来。 普通员工区的众人，心里涌起一股浪潮，让他们热血沸腾。
“哈哈哈，你这是在搞农民起义么？ 真是有病，这普通员工区和高层区是不可能被打通的，高层区不光是我们这些经理用餐，平时公司来了客人还要招待他们，不然你让那些贵客跟你们这些普通员工坐在一起？ 皇室集团还真是丢不起这个人啊。”
“再说了，这食堂区域的划分，那是秦总的意思，你一个销售员的身份，操着领导的心，真是太可笑了，哈哈！” 林帅第一个站出来反对，肆无忌惮的大笑起来。
跟着，王超笑了，小张笑了，十多个高层区的经理主管们都笑了。 这堵墙可是划分他们地位的城堡，将那些普通员工拦在外面，敬仰向往着他们，这种高高在上的感觉，谁不想体会呢。
韩盈盈也笑了，不是嘲讽的笑，看着秦枫妩媚娇笑，跟着，她冰冷强势的声音就响了起来：“你们都觉得很好笑是么？ 我倒觉得，秦枫说的很在理，这件事情，我会跟秦总反应。”
那些笑声截然而止，高层们一个个诧异的看向韩盈盈，她身为秦总的助理，职位可大可小，这些人可不敢轻易得罪她。
“对，韩助理说的很对，秦枫的意见反应了公司众多底层工作者的心声，我们应该重视起来。” 第二个站入秦枫行列的是王军，表完态，还讨好的看了秦枫一眼。
林帅本来是来讨好韩盈盈，想在她心中留下个好印象的，现在却被狠狠打脸，气的脖子都红成一片，他还想要站出来反驳一下，挽回点面子，一个雄厚低沉的声音，在大厅响起，顿时引得所有视线忘了过去，看清来人的样貌时，惊的下巴落了一地。
啪啪！
秦皇在两个总监的陪同下，拍着手走了过来：“咦，这位小伙子提的建议这么深刻出色，大家怎么都不鼓掌呢？”
许久的沉静后，大厅里突然响起惊天动地的掌声。
现在连秦总都站出来表态了，不论是普通员工区还是高层区的员工，都挂着一脸笑容，拼命的叫好鼓掌。
“蟋蟀，王超，马屁精。 你们三个刚才是反对我的建议的，怎么鼓起掌了，大丈夫一言九鼎，可不能臣服于权势的压力啊。” 秦枫笑看着三人说道。
三人心口都中了一箭，痛的说不出话来。
“秦枫，你太厉害了，我都为你高兴。” 许若柔这会激动的跑到秦枫身边，欢舞雀跃着，这个餐厅划分的问题，她心里也是有想法的，但同样没敢表现出来。
不是所有的牛奶都叫特仑苏，不是所有的人都能成为纨绔。
“好了，大家先安静一下。” 秦皇摆了摆手，示意大家安静。
如同春晚现场一般火爆的气氛，顿时安静下来，秦皇笑着扫过每一个人，沉稳的说道：“刚才这位年轻人的建议我觉得很好，看到大家的强烈反应说明你们也很认同。 那么，从今天开始，员工食堂不在划分区域，大家以后吃同样的饭菜，享受同样的午餐待遇。”
听了秦皇的决定，普通员工区的众人像是做梦一般，这幸福感来的太快，想到高层区里的牛排大餐，法师餐点等等美食，这些人就直流口水。
他们的视线不约而同的落在了秦枫身上，这一切都是他带来的，在这些人眼中，秦枫是那么的高大，就像是光明一般，有他的地方就有光亮和惊喜。
接着，秦皇又说了几句，就让大家自己吃饭，他则是来到了秦枫身边，趁着众人不注意，狠狠的瞪了他一眼：“臭小子，不就是取消食堂区域划分么，有必要搞这么大动静，直接给我打电话说一声不就完了。”
“秦总，我一个公司的小小销售员，哪里知道您的电话啊，就算打了，您也不会搭理我的。” 秦枫很随意的说道。
秦皇脸色一黑，还想要发怒来着，可是想了想，秦枫说的很有道理啊。
“这次你做的不错，继续加油！” 秦皇最终还是说了句夸赞的话。
刚才秦枫当众激情洋溢的演讲，他都听见了，心底里也涌起一阵巨浪，看着自己的儿子能够站在底层员工，切身为他们着想，心里十分的欣慰。
一个好的领导，一个成功的企业，就要先从底层员工的利益看起，尽量让他们感受到公司的温暖和态度，这样公司才能走的长远。
“你们吃饭吧，我先走了。” 秦总用眼神跟韩盈盈和许若柔会意了一下，便准备离开。
“秦总……我做了这么大的好事，您不奖赏一下？” 秦枫说道。
秦皇停下脚步，看向秦枫，沉默了片刻，对着身旁的一位财物总监说道：“黄总监，这位青年踹倒了9面玻璃幕墙，你按照如今拆墙工的价格，一会把工钱结算出来，跟他这个月的工资，一起发放下去。”
看着秦皇离开的背影，秦枫嘴角一阵猛抽。
韩盈盈和许若柔一人站在秦枫一侧，这会都把脸侧到另一边，强装着没事，但是从她们颤抖的娇躯就能看得出来，她们笑的很厉害。
秦枫瞪了二女一眼，径直来到王超的身边：“王组长啊，看来我是没办法从高层区的食堂带饭菜给你品尝了……因为现在没有高层区食堂这一说了。”
“哼，小人得志。” 王超黑着脸跑走了。
小张狠狠的瞪了秦枫一眼，连忙跟了上去：“你别得意太早，以后有你好看的。”
“马屁精，走好。” 秦枫朝着二人离去的背影挥了挥手。
小张听到‘马屁精’三个字，一个趔趄，差点摔倒在地上。

Chapter 129 - Give Him the Additional Wages
As the gold medal financial analyst of the Finance Department, being commanded to pour water for a little sales rep made Lin Shuai so angry he wanted to kill someone. He said unhappily, “Why do I have to pour water for you? I think you should explain your vile behavior first.”
“I was just about to explain so that's why I told you to pour water… I'm thirsty, I have to finish drinking the water before I can speak. Hurry and go.”
“Huh? Why are you still not going? Didn't you say Assistant Han was right and I need to give everyone an explanation? Now that I want to explain, you're not letting me. You clearly mean to oppose Assistant Han… Cricket, do you hate Assistant Han? Are you trying to intentionally go against her?”
Lin Shuai jumped in shock. He hurriedly looked at Han Ying Ying and explained: “Assistant Han, don't listen to this brat’s nonsense, I don't have anything against you. I admire you… Whether it be your beauty or your outstanding ability.”
Lin Shuai lived up to his name as a genius player. No wonder he was able to climb from the position of a little assistant financial analyst to the position of a gold medal financial analyst after only being in Royal Group for less than two months. The effort he placed in his explanation was incidentally enough to be an surreptitious confession.
Once these words came out, Han Ying Ying sighed deeply and retracted her charming smile. Her expression fell: “Manager Lin, hurry and go pour the water.”
Lin Shuai looked like he was dizzy from being struck in the head. He would have never thought that Han Ying Ying would agree to Qin Feng’s shameless and disrespectful request. However, reality was that Han Ying Ying had spoken: she told him to pour water for this sales representative Qin Feng. Though he was reluctant, Lin Shuai ended up gritting his teeth and getting the water for Qin Feng under the countless gazes of the audience.
Qin Feng took the water and immediately splashed it onto the ground: “Wow, it took half a day of fussing around to pour water. Now I'm no longer thirsty.”
“Qin Feng, you…”
“Qin Feng, give everyone an explanation now.” Han Ying Ying requested again. Once she spoke, the noisy cafeteria immediately fell quiet.
“Of course I’ll give everyone a statement. But, this is not an explanation, it’s a critique.” Qin Feng stood in the crowd with seriousness. He stood perfectly straight like a javelin, and his voice was loud and clear.
“In this restless and robust society, we were all able to become members of Royal Group and coworkers that work hard together. This is something to be elated about. This is a warm and secure family; it's one where we can all develop our own places to shine. Here, we splash down every drop of the sweat of our youth and withstand hard work and criticism.
“We’re all the lowest-leveled ordinary employees that do the hardest work. We must withstand the most abuse and questioning, and we get the lowest wages. But, we haven't given up; we’re all doing our best to fight on… However, even when we’re eating lunch, the cafeteria has to be split by ranks and grades. Hungry ordinary employees like us who were busy all morning are given unappetizing food from a communal rice pot, while these higher-leveled people who played games and only took two calls in the morning aren't hungry but eat a more nutritious and luxurious meal.”
“My behavior at first was crazy indeed, but my thoughts are simple. I need to tear down this separated relationship; this wall that has divided our trusting and loving family. When we eat and rest, we should throw away status and all be good friends. We should not separated by status. Instead, we should happily eat and talk together.”
“Now, there are only 3 glass walls left. Those that agree with me can come over and kick them down.”
When Qin Feng’s words fell, these people were all in shock. The audience from the ordinary employee area’s hearts surged and their blood boiled. On the other hand, the audience in the high class area’s hearts frosted over and their expressions turned cold.
“Hahaha, are you staging a peasant revolt? You're crazy, you can’t break through to the ordinary and high class sections. The high class section isn’t only for us managers to eat in. When guests come to the company, we also have to receive them there. Otherwise, you’d let these important customers eat with you ordinary employees? Royal Group can’t afford to lose these people.”
“That's enough. Separating the cafeteria was Chairman Qin’s idea. It's too laughable for a mere sales representative to want to be a leader. Haha!” Lin Shuai was the first to step up to oppose Qin Feng. He began to laugh without restraint.
Then, Wang Chao laughed, Xiao Zhang laughed, and over ten managers and supervisors in the high class area began to laugh. This wall formed a castle that indicated status. It blocked off the ordinary employees and kept them outside to revere them and yearn to be in their position. Who wouldn’t want to experience that lofty feeling?
“Haha,” Han Ying Ying laughed as well. It wasn’t a laugh in ridicule, but a charming laugh that she directed at Qin Feng. Then, her strong and icy voice rang out: “You all think it’s funny do you? I actually think that what Qin Feng said was quite sensible. I’ll make sure to relay it to Chairman Qin.”
The laughs came to an abrupt stop. The upper-leveled employees stared flabbergasted at Han Ying Ying. As Chairman Qin’s assistant, she had a position of significance. These people didn’t dare to offend her.
“Right, Assistant Han is right. Qin Feng’s idea expresses the sentiments of the countless low-leveled employees in the company. We should value it.” The second person to stand in Qin Feng’s procession was Wang Jun. After expressing his sentiments, he looked at Qin Feng in another attempt to curry favor with him.
Lin Shuai had originally come here to give Han Ying Ying a good impression of him and to get in her good graces. Now, he was slapped ruthlessly in the face. He was so angry that his neck turned red. He wanted to stand up and protest to salvage some face when a deep and robust sound arose in the cafeteria. All of the gazes instantly flitted over to look. Once they were able to clearly see who it was, their jaws fell to the ground in shock.
Clap clap!
Qin Huang, accompanied by two directors, walked over while clapping his hands: “Hm? This lad’s suggestion is quite profound and remarkable. Why don’t we all give him a round of applause?”
After an extended silence, an earth-shattering applause rumbled through the cafeteria.
Now that Chairman Qin stood out and expressed his opinion, whether it be the employees in the ordinary employee section or the high-class section, everyone pasted a smile on their face and cheered and applauded with all their might.
“Cricket, Wang Chao, Ass-kisser. You three opposed my suggestion earlier, why are you clapping? A man of character should stand by his words, he shouldn’t succumb to the pressure of the powerful,” Qin Feng smiled while he said this to the three.
The three of them had their hearts pierced with arrows. It hurt so much they couldn’t speak.
“Qin Feng, you’re too amazing, I’m happy for you.” Xu Ruo Rou pranced excitedly to Qin Feng’s side. She felt the same way about this issue of dividing the cafeteria, but didn’t have the guts to express her sentiments.
Just as not all milk is Milk Deluxe, not all people can become hedonists.
“Okay, everyone quiet down.” Qin Huang waved his hands and indicated for everyone to be quiet.
The atmosphere that was as bustling as the Chinese New Year special instantly quieted. Qin Huang’s smile swept over every person. He said steadily: “I think this young lad’s suggestion is very good, and your strong reaction shows that you also agree. Then, beginning from today, the employee cafeteria will no longer be partitioned. Everyone will eat the same food and enjoy the same lunch benefits.”
After hearing Qin Huang’s decision, the normal employees felt as though they were dreaming. This feeling of bliss arrived too quickly. When they thought about the wonderful food in the high class area such as the steak banquet and French cuisine, they immediately began to drool.
Their gazes simultaneously fell on Qin Feng. He brought on all of this. In their eyes, Qin Feng was this lofty. He was like light; wherever he was, brightness and pleasure followed.
Then, Qin Huang said a couple more sentences and let everyone eat. He went beside Qin Feng and glared at him while no one was paying attention: “Stinking brat, was there a need to cause such a ruckus when all we had to do was get rid of the divider separating the sections in the cafeteria? You could’ve just called me and we’d be done with it.”
“Chairman Qin, as a little sales representative in the company, how would I know your phone number? Even if I called, you would ignore me,” Qin Feng said casually.
Qin Huang’s expression darkened. He was about to get angry. But, after thinking for a bit, what Qin Feng said made a lot of sense.
“You did pretty well this time. Keep up the good work!” In the end, Qin Huang said a couple of sentences in praise.
When he heard Qin Feng’s passionate speech earlier, a large wave also swelled through his heart. He felt comforted as he watched his son standing among the lower-leveled employees and thinking on their behalf.
A good leader and a successful company must begin looking at the interests of its lowest leveled employees. They must try their best to share the company’s warm attitude with them so the company could be long-lived.
“You all eat, I’ll be leaving first.” Chairman Qin’s gaze briefly met with Han Ying Ying and Xu Ruo Rou’s, and he prepared to leave.
“Chairman Qin, I’ve done such a great thing, aren’t you going to reward me?” Qin Feng asked.
Qin Huang stopped in his tracks. He looked at Qin Feng, was quiet for a brief instant, and said to the Property Director: “Director Huang, this youth kicked down nine glass walls. According to the price of tearing down walls, calculate the pay and add it to his current month’s salary.”
Qin Feng’s mouth quirked as he watched Qin Huang’s receding back.
Han Ying Ying and Xu Ruo Rou stood on each side of Qin Feng. At this time, they tilted their faces and tried hard to pretend nothing was wrong, but one could tell from their shaking delicate bodies that they were laughing really hard.
Qin Feng eyed the two women and walked directly up beside Wang Chao: “Group Leader Wang, it seems that I won’t be able to bring food over from the high class dining area for you to try… Because there’s now no such thing as the high class dining area.”
“Hmph, a lowly person intoxicated by success.” Wang Chao left with a dark expression.
Xiao Zhang glared at Qin Feng and immediately followed: “Don’t be happy too early, I’ll teach you a lesson in the future.”
“Ass-kisser, walk properly.” Qin Feng looked at the two leaving backs and waved his hand.
When Xiao Zhang heard “Ass-kisser,” he stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

"value": "Although people could log into the course selection system of the school through the internet, everyone liked to pick their courses at the school’s computer labs since the router was located in that building, and the internet speed was the fastest in that area.\nBecause there were many students at East Ocean University, the website often would crash after logging into the course selection system. Therefore, picking classes at the computer lab had become a tradition at East Ocean University.\nEspecially for those students who were about to graduate, they had to choose courses that were easy for them to pass and could boost their GPA before graduation. On the other hand, some students would also like to pick the easiest instructors for their required courses so that they would not fail the class and delay their graduations.\nHowever, if these courses were full, there was nothing they could to get into those courses, even if they tried to talk to the instructors alone. The exception was that if someone dropped the course, then there would be an empty spot. However, students usually wouldn’t drop such popular courses.\n“Hurry up and leave!” A few tall guys saw that the students at the door weren’t moving, so they went over to urge them.\nThe teacher who was in charge of the order of this computer lab was skinny, and he turned his head around when he saw Huang Xujie walking into the computer lab.\nAll the students and teachers knew that Huang Xujie’s dad was a deputy mayor of the city. Although he usually acted recklessly and cared for nobody in school, he did not break any laws, so he would not bring any trouble to his dad.\nThose students who were sitting near the door stood up unwillingly. Although they were angry, they didn’t dare to do anything since they knew that they didn’t stand a chance against Huang Xujie.\nThere were more than a dozen students from the Rock-Climbing Club accompanying Huang Xujie. Since they needed more than four computers, they started kicking out other students.\nThose students who were being kicked out stood beside the computers as they hoped that Huang Xujie and his friends would finish quickly so that they could continue choosing their courses.\n“Get out, get out!” One of those guys came over and kicked Hao Ren’s chair as they saw him remaining seated.\nDue to Hao Ren’s fame, this guy knew about Hao Ren and the grudges between him and Huang Xujie. Back when they were still in third-year, they didn’t dare to be too arrogant. Now that they had entered fourth-year, and Xie Wanjun had graduated, the Rock-Climbing Club had nothing to worry about anymore.\n“Hurry up and give up the computer!” This guy started to lose his patience and kicked Hao Ren’s chair harder since the latter was still sitting.\nThe chairs in the computer lab were actually square stools. If Hao Ren didn’t sit still, he could have fallen off the chair.\n“Hey, don’t go too far!” Xie Yujia stood up and yelled.\nHuang Xujie, who was fanning himself, heard the shout and turned his head.\nWhen he saw one of his henchmen fighting over a seat with Hao Ren, he was surprised and walked over quickly.\n“Brother Huang, what a small world. We saw him again,” the guy said to Huang Xujie.\nHuang Xujie looked at Hao Ren and then at this guy who was still yelling\nPow! Huang Xujie folded his fan and smacked it on this guy’s head.\nA red mark appeared on this guy’s forehead, and he was utterly stunned.\nThen, Huang Xujie put away his fan and slapped this guy on the back of his head, making this big and tall man take a few steps forward.\nThe guy rubbed the back of his head and had no idea what he had done wrong. Then, Huang Xujie threw the fan angrily at his face.\n“Apologize to Brother Hao!” Huang Xujie yelled at him angrily.\nThat guy looked at Huang Xujie in shock. Then, he looked at Hao Ren and said quietly, “Bro… Brother Hao, sorry.”\nHao Ren sat on the stool and did not say a word.\nHuang Xujie charged toward him and hit him in the back of his head again. The smacking noise was so clear and loud that everyone in the computer lab heard it.\n“Was that an apology?” Huang Xujie stared at him and said.\n“Bro… Brother Hao! I’m sorry!” this simple-minded, strong guy roared.\nHao Ren looked up at Huang Xujie and said sarcastically, “Huang Xujie, you look majestic.”\nHuang Xujie smiled and said, “Brother Hao, sorry. I didn’t know you are here.”\nZhou Liren, who was sitting right next to Hao Ren, was stunned.\nGu Jiadong and everyone else were also shocked.\n“Go line-up outside,” Hao Ren said coldly.\n“Yes, yes, we will,” Huang Xujie picked up the fan on the floor and left the computer lab with his henchmen.\nWhile walking out of the computer lab, Huang Xujie slapped the back of that guy’s head again as he was still angry at him for messing with Hao Ren.\nAfter knowing Hao Ren’s family background, Huang Xujie tried to avoid seeing him at school. How could Huang Xujie not be angry when he found out that one of his boys deliberately provoked Hao Ren?\nDuring the summer break, Huang Xujie’s dad warned him about Hao Ren and told him that he should try to make friends with Hao Zhonghua’s son, who studied at East Ocean University. Even if he couldn’t become friends with Hao Ren, he shouldn’t mess with him. That was because people like Hao Zhonghua had good relationships with all the influential people in the city, and he had the power to affect the Mayor’s decision on firing and promoting any deputy mayors.\nAs Huang Xujie walked out of the computer lab, people like Yu Rong, Gu Jiadong, Huang Jianfeng, and Zhao Jiayi were all stunned.\n“Brother Ren… Shall I call you Brother Ren?” Zhou Liren looked at Hao Ren confusedly.\n“We are about to start picking our courses. Why don’t you double-check your class list?” Hao Ren glanced at him and said.\n“Oh, oh…” Zhou Liren listened to Hao Ren’s words and took a sheet of paper out.\nThe paper listed the best courses to pick and the second-choices. However, they still had to act fast in order to be enrolled in those courses.\n“Mr. Sun, we are here to pick our classes.” Right before the course selection system opened, Lu Qi entered the computer lab with the members of the Go Club.\nUnlike other clubs at school, the Go Club was one of the most important clubs. It had its own practice rooms, and this computer lab that was located right next to the school’s network router was their exclusive computer lab.\nDue to the large numbers of students who had to select their courses, this computer lab was opened for all students for the day. Since Xie Yujia knew that the internet speed was the fastest in this room, she and Ma Lina started lining up in the early morning outside of it.\nLu Qi looked around and saw that the entire computer lab was full. He then noticed Hao Ren, walked over, and said, “Brother Hao.”\nLu Qi, the president of the Go Club, was a handsome young man who wore glasses. He was very famous amongst the upper-year students, but unlike Huang Xujie who was arrogant, he was humble and had a lot of fangirls.\nOther than being separated from other clubs in school, the Principal would personally allocate a sum of money to the Go Club each year as funding. Therefore, Huang Xujie wouldn’t dare to mess with Lu Qi.\nThe fact that Lu Qi walked toward Hao Ren and called him, Brother Hao, shocked Zhou Liren once again. “Lu Qi is very famous amongst in the school, and he is even a year older than Hao Ren!” he thought.\n“Oh, picking classes?” Hao Ren looked at Lu Qi and asked.\n“Yes. I brought the Go Club here to pick courses as well,” Lu Qi replied.\nHe had his reasons for calling Hao Ren, Brother Hao. First of all, Hao Ren was a level 3 inspector, which meant that he had a much higher status than Lu Qi. Also, since Hao Ren had become an inspector, all the young dragon cultivators wanted to become Hao Ren’s assisting inspector.\nRight now, there were only two inspectors in East Ocean City, and both were in East Ocean University. One of them was Su Han, and the other was Hao Ren. Since everyone knew that Su Han didn’t want to have anything to do with the dragon cultivators in school, it meant that she wouldn’t pick anyone to become her assisting inspector. Hao Ren was a special case.\nTherefore, Hao Ren was the only hope for them. After one became an assisting inspector, he or she would gain a lot of benefits from Dragon God Shrine.\n“Lu Qi, do you want me to empty a few seats for you?” The teacher who was responsible for looking after the computer lab asked.\nThis computer lab originally belonged to the Go Club. Before the room was opened to the students, a few notices were posted on the front door that said: If a Go Club member wants to use the computer, one must give up his or her seat.\n“There’s no need, Mr. Wong. We will wait here,” Lu Qi waved his hands politely.\nSince Lu Qi wasn’t taking anyone’s seat, the other club members also had to wait behind Hao Ren.\n“Oh, there is a little girl who is trying to find you, and she is outside,” Lu Qi suddenly said.\n“Huh?” Hao Ren was surprised.\n“I didn’t know where you were, or else I would’ve brought her up here. I can go find her for you now,” Lu Qi continued.\n“I will go find her myself!” Hao Ren left the computer lab and ran to the window across the hallway. He saw Zhao Yanzi riding a bike outside and wandered around.\nHao Ren searched his pocket and realized that he did not bring his phone with him.\n“Hey! Right here!” Hao Ren yelled.\nZhao Yanzi looked up and saw Hao Ren. Then, she pouted and left her new bicycle on the ground before she ran into the building.\nHao Ren waited for her at the staircase and saw her face covered in sweat. Since the summer wasn’t over yet, it was still very hot even in the mornings.\n“Why are you here?” Hao Ren asked.\n“I was bored; that’s why I came to your school. I asked a fire-elemental dragon, but he didn’t know where you were. All he said was that you might be at this building picking your courses.” Zhao Yanzi wiped off her sweat and said.\n“We are picking courses,” Hao Ren said.\n“Ha! It is cooler here!” Zhao Yanzi followed Hao Ren into the computer lab and said happily.\nSince there were air-conditioners inside the computer lab, it was nice and cool. This room belonged to the Go Club, so the computers, air-conditioners and the water machines were all brand-new.\n“Ah, your little cousin is here again!” Zhou Liren saw Zhao Yanzi and said delightfully.\n“It’s fiancée! Fiancée!” Zhao Yanzi corrected him again. Then, she suddenly saw all the other students in the computer lab staring at her, and her face turned red instantly. She walked faster and followed Hao Ren to his computer.\nHao Ren’s report card remained opened on his computer screen, and Zhao Yanzi looked at his grades and was surprised. “Third place in your program? There must be very few students at your program, right?”\nHao Ren only smiled. His program actually had the most students.\nZhao Yanzi then turned her head and looked at Xie Yujia’s computer screen. She was left speechless when she saw Xie Yujia’s grades and realized that the latter was the first place of the program.\n“Little girl, take a seat here!” Lu Qi gave Zhao Yanzi a square stool.\nHe now remembered seeing Zhao Yanzi at the general exams at the Dragon God Shrine. As a fire-elemental dragon, although he wasn’t close to the East Ocean Dragon Palace, he had to treat her well since she had a close relationship with Hao Ren.\n“Thank you!” Zhao Yanzi smiled happily and moved the stool next to Hao Ren before she started leaning on him.\nXie Yujia looked at Zhao Yanzi and shook her head helplessly. “It is obvious that she is here to watch over Hao Ren and me,” she thought.\nZhao Yanzi was sitting right between Hao Ren and Xie Yujia, deliberately separating them from each other.\n“It’s nine! Course selection starts now!” Gu Jiadong yelled nervously.\n“Try to pick the same courses together!” Yu Rong yelled, “University English, class numbers are 008 and 010, pick Zhao Lihua as the instructor! Theories of Sociology, 02094049, Zhang Haidong…”\nThe computer lab, which was initially calm and quiet, was suddenly as loud and intense as a battlefield.\n“This is my class list,” Xie Yujia gave a piece of paper to Hao Ren.\nAll the courses Xie Yujia was going to take have been printed out. The courses’ names, class numbers, names of the instructors… everything was included.\nHao Ren looked at Zhou Liren, who was hitting the keyboard crazily to his left, and then at Yu Rong, who had all his veins bulging as he yelled. He thought for a moment, followed Xie Yujia’s class list, and started entering the class numbers into the system.\nMost of the classes during the third-year were mandatory. Thus, all the third-year students took these classes together since they had no choices. However, they were still able to take a few non-mandatory courses.\nAlthough the classes on Xie Yujia’s class list might not be the easiest courses, all these classes were scheduled before noon. Therefore, other than some mandatory courses, they had no classes in the afternoons.\nThis would help Hao Ren and Xie Yujia cultivate on Fifth Heaven without being noticed. Xie Yujia spent a lot of time organizing this class list since she had to make sure they could meet the credit requirements, course requirements, and the scheduling requirements.\nThe internet was indeed high-speed at this computer lab since Hao Ren and his friends were able to finish picking their courses within a few minutes. Meanwhile, students in the other computer labs were screaming about the crash of the website.\nSince Hao Ren copied everything from Xie Yujia’s list, he was going to have all the classes with her this semester.\nOn the other hand, Zhao Yanzi’s schedule was organized by her class advisor. Therefore, she did not understand why everyone was screaming since she had never experienced the need to pick her own classes before.\n“Gongzi!”\nRight when Hao Ren finished logging out of the course selection system, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili entered the computer lab joyfully.\n“Haha, we got Gongzi’s class list!” Lu Linlin ran toward Hao Ren and grabbed the class list in front of him. Then, she immediately logged into the computer and typed in the information.\nLu Lili took Xie Yujia’s computer and received the class list from Lu Linlin. Then, she entered the class numbers and picked all the courses Hao Ren had.\n“Your classes are supposed to be different from mine, right?” Hao Ren looked at them helplessly.\n“Bingo!” Lu Linlin made a V-shaped hand gesture. “My sister and I took the program-switching exam at the end of the first year, and we passed!”"

郝哥是你能得罪的？ 虽然说寝室里的网络概可以登录学校的选课系统，但是大家都觉得在学校的机房里选课的速度最快口因为学校的服务器就在。
楼。 由于东海大学的学生众多，所以选课系统登录之后，经常就会刷不开，所以到机房选课也就成为东海大学的传统。
特别是一些高年级的学生，临近毕业，一定要选择一些轻松能过的课程，冲击学分，达到毕业的条件。 又或者是最后一年还有几门重修的课程，一定要选到考试最宽松的老师，这样就不会拖累自己的毕业时间。
而选课系统是由网络运行的，所有的课程，名额满了就是满了，想要单独找老师换进去也是不行的，除非有同学从课程里退掉，又没有新同学进去，才能得到这个名额口但是热门的课程，一般不会有学生会退掉硪“快点让开！”
看到坐在门口的几个学生不动，那几个高高大大的男生，走过去催赶。
负责机房的秩序的是一个瘦瘦的老师，他看到进来的是黄旭杰，就把脑袋偏向窗口，假装没有看到。
黄旭杰的老爹是副市长，这是学校里的所有老师和学生都知道的事情，他在学校里横行无忌，但说到底没有触犯法律，不会给他的老爹带来任何麻烦。
那些坐在门口的男生，不甘心的站起来，他们很想发火，但知道自己斗不过“土皇帝”黄旭杰。
跟着黄旭杰进来的攀岩队的队员，一共有十几个人，只是四五台电脑是完全不够用的，于是他们又再接着赶其他学生。
这些被赶起来的学生，只能站在旁边，等选课系统开通，希望他们快点选完，然后他们才能重新坐到自己的电脑前面。
“让开让开！” 看到郝仁还坐着”其中一个跑过来，踢了踢郝仁的凳子。
以郝仁现在的名声”他当然知道郝仁，也知道郝仁是黄旭杰的对头，以前他们还是大三，上面还有大四，也不敢太嚣张。 如今他们已经升到大四，跟谢万军同届的那批篮球队的猛人都已经毕业，他们攀岩队就再也没有什么顾忌的。
“快点，把电脑让出来！” 看到郝仁还不起来”这大四男生没有耐心的再使劲踢郝仁的凳子。
机房里的凳子，是那种铁架子的小方凳，这大四男生使劲踢，如果郝仁坐的不稳，就会一屁股摔倒。
“喂，你们不要矢过分啊！” 谢雨嘉站起来，喊道。
摇着扇子的黄旭杰，听到呼喊，扭头看过来。
他看到自己的一个小弟在抢郝仁的座位，略微意外，再加紧脚步，走过来。
大四男生看看黄旭杰，说道。
黄旭杰看看郝仁，再看看夹四男生。
啪！ 黄旭杰折起的扇子，突然打在大四男生的脑门上。
大四男生的额头被打出一条红印，惊愕之下”整个人都呆掉了。
黄旭杰收起扇子，再狠狠的打一个巴掌在大四男生的后脑勺，让这五大三粗的男生，直接朝前面冲出三四步。
他摸着自己疼痛的后脑勺，不知道自己做错什么。 黄旭杰恼火的再把扇子扔过去”砸在大四男生的脸上。
黄旭杰看着他，吼叫起来。
大四男生愣愣的看着黄旭杰，再吃惊的看着郝仁”轻声说道，“郝毗郝哥”对不起。”
郝仁坐在位子上，没有说话。
黄旭杰冲过去，再打了他后脑勺一下，这响亮的声音，让机房里所有同学都听的清清楚楚。
“这是道歉吗？” 黄旭杰瞪着他。
“郝……郝哥！ 对不起！”
郝仁微微抬头，看着黄旭杰，“我说，黄旭杰，你很威风啊？”
黄旭杰陪着笑脸，“郝哥，对不住，不知道您在这儿。”
坐在郝仁身边的周立人，完全的愣住了。
跟郝仁一起的顾家栋他们，也都呆呆的眨着眼睛。
郝仁淡淡的说出四个字。 这就出去。”
黄旭杰捡起地上的扇子，带着他的攀岩队的队员，乖乖的离开机房。
而走出机房的时候，黄旭杰还恼恨的朝着那个惹事的大四男生的脑袋上，重重的拍了一下。
自从知道郝仁的身份，黄旭杰就尽量避免在学校里跟郝仁碰面，偏偏他手下的这个白痴，还故意去惹郝仁，这如何不让黄旭杰郁闷？
这个暑假，黄旭杰老爹已经特别的叮嘱过黄旭杰，郝中华的公子在东海大学里念书，能结交就结交，不能结交也不要招惹。 明年市里的位置要动一动，像郝中华这样的跟省里的领导的关系很好的大人物，一句话就能决定他这个副市长是升还是调。
黄旭杰缩着脑袋走出机房，余荣、顾家栋、黄剑锋、赵嘉胤……，全都看傻了。
周立人有些怀疑的看着郝仁。
“选课马上开始了，还不把选课单子整理一下。” 郝仁瞥瞥他。
周立人言听计从，马上把选课单子拿出来。
这上面列出来的都是最佳方案，另外还有备远方案，但都必须眼疾手快，抢先选到才行。
“孙老师，我们来选课的。” 就在选课系统即将开启的时候，陆琪带着他的围棋社的成员，进入机房。
围棋社跟学校里的其他社团不同，它是学校的重点社团，有自己的围棋教室，还有专门用于网络操练的学校资源这个紧贴着学校服务器的房，就是他们的专属机房。
由于选课学生众多，这个机房今天也对普通同学开放，谢雨嘉也知道这个机房的速度最快，所以今天很早就排在这个机房的门口。
陆琪扫视一圈，看到机器已经被占满，忽然又看到郝仁，于是走过来”喊了一声，“郝哥。”
围棋社的社长陆琪，是一个戴着眼镜的斯文帅哥，他在高年级里拥有很高的人气，跟黄旭杰的张扬不同，他的低调，使他拥有超多的“校园女粉丝”。
而围棋社独立于学校的各种社团之外，每年学校还会由校长亲自拨一笔钱给围棋社”所以对于这个陆琪，就是黄旭杰也不会惹他的。
此刻”陆琪走过来，客客气气的走过来叫郝仁是“郝哥”这就让周立人再次瞪圆了眼睛陆琪是大四的超人气帅哥啊，比郝仁还大一岁呢！
“哦，选课啊。 郝仁看看陆琪。
“是啊，带围棋社的过来选课。” 陆琪回答道。
他喊郝仁是“郝哥”自然有他的道理一郝仁是三级审查官，地位比他高出很多，而自从郝仁成为审查官，校园里的龙族修士们，都打着一个主意想成为郝仁的助理审查官。
如今，东海市的地区审查官只有两个，而且都在东海大学的校园，一个是苏涵，一个是郝仁但是大家都知道苏涵从来不跟校园里的龙族修士打交道，自然也不会收任何年轻的龙族修士做他的助理审查官，郝仁这个，绝对是特例中的特例。
所以呢，有希望成为助理审查官的突破口，就在郝仁这里。 而只要成为助理审查官，不论是在东海市还是在龙神殿的会试”都会有各种好处。
“陆琪，要不要腾几个位子给你？” 负责机房秩序的老师，走过来问道。
这机房本来就是围棋社专属的”这次选课临时开启，机房的门口也贴了公告”如果围棋社的成员要使用电脑，就必须让出来。
“不用了，王老师，就在这儿等等吧。” 陆琪颇有风度的摆摆手。
陆琪不占座位，其他的围棋社的成员，也只能站在郝仁他们后面等着。
“对了，刚刚有个小妹妹在。 楼外面找你。”
郝仁很意外。
“我不知道你在这儿，否则就带她上来了。 我现在去找她吧。”
“我自己去看看！” 郝仁离开机房，跑到外面走廊尽头的窗户，看到赵焰紫在外面，骑着一辆自行车在晃呢。
郝仁摸摸自己的口袋，发现自己没带手机出来。
“喂！ 在这儿呢！” 郝仁放声大喊。
赵焰紫抬起头，看到郝仁，鼓鼓嘴，把那辆新买的自行车停到空地上，再朝着教学楼里跑进来。
郝仁到楼梯口去接她，看到她满脸冒汗的跑上来。 暑假还没有完全过去，虽然是早晨，也是很热的。
“怎么来这儿啊？” 郝仁问她。
“无聊，就到你们学校来转转，问了一个火龙的，他也不知道你在哪里，就说你们今天选课，大概会在。 楼。”
赵焰紫擦擦汗，说道。
还是这里凉爽！” 赵焰紫跟着郝仁进入机房，一下子开心的说道。
机房里有空调，当然是很凉爽，而且这机房还是围棋社专属的，电脑是新的，空调也是新的，另外还配有饮水机。
“哎呀，小表妹今天又来了啊！” 周立人看到赵焰紫，愉快的叫起来。
未婚妻！” 赵焰紫再次纠正，再突然看到机房里的其他学生都盯着她，脸色猛地变红，急忙快走几步，跟着郝仁到他的电脑旁边。
郝仁的电脑屏幕还停留在他的成绩列表，赵焰紫看看郝仁的成绩，“啊”了一声，惊诧的看着郝仁，“学院第三名啊？
郝仁笑而不语，他们机自学院，是学校里学生最多的学院。
赵焰紫再扭头看看谢雨嘉的屏幕，看到谢雨嘉的成绩是学院第一名，一下子就无语了。
“小妹妹，坐吧！” 陆琪给赵焰紫搬来一个小方凳。
他现在想起来，他曾经在龙神殿的会试里见过场边的赵焰紫，他作为火龙，跟东海龙宫的交往不多，但赵焰紫跟郝仁有亲密关系，陆琪就必须要善待她。
谢谢！” 赵焰紫欢喜的笑笑，把小方凳移到郝仁旁边，紧挨着郝仁。
谢雨嘉看看赵焰紫，无奈的摇头。 赵焰紫这个架势很明显啊，就是来监督她和郝仁的。
赵焰紫坐的位置，也是在郝仁和谢雨嘉的中间，把他们硬生生的隔开。
“9点了，选课开始了！” 顾家栋紧张的叫起来。
“争取都选在一起啊！” 余荣呼喊着，“大学英语，课程编号老师选赵丽华！
原本安静的机房，顿时激烈的就像是战场。
“这个是我的选课单。” 谢雨嘉把一张纸传给郝仁。
谢雨嘉要选的课程，都已经打印出来，课程的名称，编号，老师姓名，上课时间，一应俱全。
郝仁看看左边疯狂敲打着键盘的周立人，再看看青筋暴起的使劲叫喊的余荣，想了想，按照谢雨嘉的这份选课单，把编号逐次敲进去。
大三有比较多的专业课，是整个班级一起上的，这种课程没有选择的余地，但还有很多课程，可以〖自〗由选择。
谢雨嘉的这份选课单，上面的课程未必是最简单的课程，但是上课的时间，全部都集中在上午。
这就有利于郝仁和谢雨嘉去五层天修炼，而且也不会引起怀疑。 又要满足学分的规定，又要选择专业课，还要把时间都排列出来，这份选课单，谢雨嘉绝对是费了不少的心思。
这个机房的网络速度确实很快，就在其他的机房里都在叫喊网页崩溃的时候，郝仁他们只用几分钟的时间，就全部选课完毕。
而郝仁照抄谢雨嘉的课程表，也就意味着他们这个学期的所有课程，都是一起的。
赵焰紫的班级的课程表是班主任安排的，从未经历过选课这种事情，看到他们吵吵嚷嚷，也搞不懂具体是什么意思。
“公子！”
就在郝仁刚刚退出选课系统的时候，陆琳琳和陆欢欢喜喜的进入机房。
“哈哈，得到公子的选课单！” 陆琳琳小跑着过来，抓起郝仁前面的选课单，再立刻登录电脑，噼里啪啦的输入进去。
陆lìlì占据谢雨嘉的电脑，再拿到陆琳琳传给他的选课单，也依次输入，把郝仁选过的课程，全部选择进去。
“你们的课，跟我不一样吧！” 郝仁无奈的看着她们。
“冰嘣！” 陆琳琳做出一个胜利的手势，“我和妹妹参加大一期末的转学院考试，全部通过了哦！”

Although people could log into the course selection system of the school through the internet, everyone liked to pick their courses at the school’s computer labs since the router was located in that building, and the internet speed was the fastest in that area.
Because there were many students at East Ocean University, the website often would crash after logging into the course selection system. Therefore, picking classes at the computer lab had become a tradition at East Ocean University.
Especially for those students who were about to graduate, they had to choose courses that were easy for them to pass and could boost their GPA before graduation. On the other hand, some students would also like to pick the easiest instructors for their required courses so that they would not fail the class and delay their graduations.
However, if these courses were full, there was nothing they could to get into those courses, even if they tried to talk to the instructors alone. The exception was that if someone dropped the course, then there would be an empty spot. However, students usually wouldn’t drop such popular courses.
“Hurry up and leave!” A few tall guys saw that the students at the door weren’t moving, so they went over to urge them.
The teacher who was in charge of the order of this computer lab was skinny, and he turned his head around when he saw Huang Xujie walking into the computer lab.
All the students and teachers knew that Huang Xujie’s dad was a deputy mayor of the city. Although he usually acted recklessly and cared for nobody in school, he did not break any laws, so he would not bring any trouble to his dad.
Those students who were sitting near the door stood up unwillingly. Although they were angry, they didn’t dare to do anything since they knew that they didn’t stand a chance against Huang Xujie.
There were more than a dozen students from the Rock-Climbing Club accompanying Huang Xujie. Since they needed more than four computers, they started kicking out other students.
Those students who were being kicked out stood beside the computers as they hoped that Huang Xujie and his friends would finish quickly so that they could continue choosing their courses.
“Get out, get out!” One of those guys came over and kicked Hao Ren’s chair as they saw him remaining seated.
Due to Hao Ren’s fame, this guy knew about Hao Ren and the grudges between him and Huang Xujie. Back when they were still in third-year, they didn’t dare to be too arrogant. Now that they had entered fourth-year, and Xie Wanjun had graduated, the Rock-Climbing Club had nothing to worry about anymore.
“Hurry up and give up the computer!” This guy started to lose his patience and kicked Hao Ren’s chair harder since the latter was still sitting.
The chairs in the computer lab were actually square stools. If Hao Ren didn’t sit still, he could have fallen off the chair.
“Hey, don’t go too far!” Xie Yujia stood up and yelled.
Huang Xujie, who was fanning himself, heard the shout and turned his head.
When he saw one of his henchmen fighting over a seat with Hao Ren, he was surprised and walked over quickly.
“Brother Huang, what a small world. We saw him again,” the guy said to Huang Xujie.
Huang Xujie looked at Hao Ren and then at this guy who was still yelling
Pow! Huang Xujie folded his fan and smacked it on this guy’s head.
A red mark appeared on this guy’s forehead, and he was utterly stunned.
Then, Huang Xujie put away his fan and slapped this guy on the back of his head, making this big and tall man take a few steps forward.
The guy rubbed the back of his head and had no idea what he had done wrong. Then, Huang Xujie threw the fan angrily at his face.
“Apologize to Brother Hao!” Huang Xujie yelled at him angrily.
That guy looked at Huang Xujie in shock. Then, he looked at Hao Ren and said quietly, “Bro… Brother Hao, sorry.”
Hao Ren sat on the stool and did not say a word.
Huang Xujie charged toward him and hit him in the back of his head again. The smacking noise was so clear and loud that everyone in the computer lab heard it.
“Was that an apology?” Huang Xujie stared at him and said.
“Bro… Brother Hao! I’m sorry!” this simple-minded, strong guy roared.
Hao Ren looked up at Huang Xujie and said sarcastically, “Huang Xujie, you look majestic.”
Huang Xujie smiled and said, “Brother Hao, sorry. I didn’t know you are here.”
Zhou Liren, who was sitting right next to Hao Ren, was stunned.
Gu Jiadong and everyone else were also shocked.
“Go line-up outside,” Hao Ren said coldly.
“Yes, yes, we will,” Huang Xujie picked up the fan on the floor and left the computer lab with his henchmen.
While walking out of the computer lab, Huang Xujie slapped the back of that guy’s head again as he was still angry at him for messing with Hao Ren.
After knowing Hao Ren’s family background, Huang Xujie tried to avoid seeing him at school. How could Huang Xujie not be angry when he found out that one of his boys deliberately provoked Hao Ren?
During the summer break, Huang Xujie’s dad warned him about Hao Ren and told him that he should try to make friends with Hao Zhonghua’s son, who studied at East Ocean University. Even if he couldn’t become friends with Hao Ren, he shouldn’t mess with him. That was because people like Hao Zhonghua had good relationships with all the influential people in the city, and he had the power to affect the Mayor’s decision on firing and promoting any deputy mayors.
As Huang Xujie walked out of the computer lab, people like Yu Rong, Gu Jiadong, Huang Jianfeng, and Zhao Jiayi were all stunned.
“Brother Ren… Shall I call you Brother Ren?” Zhou Liren looked at Hao Ren confusedly.
“We are about to start picking our courses. Why don’t you double-check your class list?” Hao Ren glanced at him and said.
“Oh, oh…” Zhou Liren listened to Hao Ren’s words and took a sheet of paper out.
The paper listed the best courses to pick and the second-choices. However, they still had to act fast in order to be enrolled in those courses.
“Mr. Sun, we are here to pick our classes.” Right before the course selection system opened, Lu Qi entered the computer lab with the members of the Go Club.
Unlike other clubs at school, the Go Club was one of the most important clubs. It had its own practice rooms, and this computer lab that was located right next to the school’s network router was their exclusive computer lab.
Due to the large numbers of students who had to select their courses, this computer lab was opened for all students for the day. Since Xie Yujia knew that the internet speed was the fastest in this room, she and Ma Lina started lining up in the early morning outside of it.
Lu Qi looked around and saw that the entire computer lab was full. He then noticed Hao Ren, walked over, and said, “Brother Hao.”
Lu Qi, the president of the Go Club, was a handsome young man who wore glasses. He was very famous amongst the upper-year students, but unlike Huang Xujie who was arrogant, he was humble and had a lot of fangirls.
Other than being separated from other clubs in school, the Principal would personally allocate a sum of money to the Go Club each year as funding. Therefore, Huang Xujie wouldn’t dare to mess with Lu Qi.
The fact that Lu Qi walked toward Hao Ren and called him, Brother Hao, shocked Zhou Liren once again. “Lu Qi is very famous amongst in the school, and he is even a year older than Hao Ren!” he thought.
“Oh, picking classes?” Hao Ren looked at Lu Qi and asked.
“Yes. I brought the Go Club here to pick courses as well,” Lu Qi replied.
He had his reasons for calling Hao Ren, Brother Hao. First of all, Hao Ren was a level 3 inspector, which meant that he had a much higher status than Lu Qi. Also, since Hao Ren had become an inspector, all the young dragon cultivators wanted to become Hao Ren’s assisting inspector.
Right now, there were only two inspectors in East Ocean City, and both were in East Ocean University. One of them was Su Han, and the other was Hao Ren. Since everyone knew that Su Han didn’t want to have anything to do with the dragon cultivators in school, it meant that she wouldn’t pick anyone to become her assisting inspector. Hao Ren was a special case.
Therefore, Hao Ren was the only hope for them. After one became an assisting inspector, he or she would gain a lot of benefits from Dragon God Shrine.
“Lu Qi, do you want me to empty a few seats for you?” The teacher who was responsible for looking after the computer lab asked.
This computer lab originally belonged to the Go Club. Before the room was opened to the students, a few notices were posted on the front door that said: If a Go Club member wants to use the computer, one must give up his or her seat.
“There’s no need, Mr. Wong. We will wait here,” Lu Qi waved his hands politely.
Since Lu Qi wasn’t taking anyone’s seat, the other club members also had to wait behind Hao Ren.
“Oh, there is a little girl who is trying to find you, and she is outside,” Lu Qi suddenly said.
“Huh?” Hao Ren was surprised.
“I didn’t know where you were, or else I would’ve brought her up here. I can go find her for you now,” Lu Qi continued.
“I will go find her myself!” Hao Ren left the computer lab and ran to the window across the hallway. He saw Zhao Yanzi riding a bike outside and wandered around.
Hao Ren searched his pocket and realized that he did not bring his phone with him.
“Hey! Right here!” Hao Ren yelled.
Zhao Yanzi looked up and saw Hao Ren. Then, she pouted and left her new bicycle on the ground before she ran into the building.
Hao Ren waited for her at the staircase and saw her face covered in sweat. Since the summer wasn’t over yet, it was still very hot even in the mornings.
“Why are you here?” Hao Ren asked.
“I was bored; that’s why I came to your school. I asked a fire-elemental dragon, but he didn’t know where you were. All he said was that you might be at this building picking your courses.” Zhao Yanzi wiped off her sweat and said.
“We are picking courses,” Hao Ren said.
“Ha! It is cooler here!” Zhao Yanzi followed Hao Ren into the computer lab and said happily.
Since there were air-conditioners inside the computer lab, it was nice and cool. This room belonged to the Go Club, so the computers, air-conditioners and the water machines were all brand-new.
“Ah, your little cousin is here again!” Zhou Liren saw Zhao Yanzi and said delightfully.
“It’s fiancée! Fiancée!” Zhao Yanzi corrected him again. Then, she suddenly saw all the other students in the computer lab staring at her, and her face turned red instantly. She walked faster and followed Hao Ren to his computer.
Hao Ren’s report card remained opened on his computer screen, and Zhao Yanzi looked at his grades and was surprised. “Third place in your program? There must be very few students at your program, right?”
Hao Ren only smiled. His program actually had the most students.
Zhao Yanzi then turned her head and looked at Xie Yujia’s computer screen. She was left speechless when she saw Xie Yujia’s grades and realized that the latter was the first place of the program.
“Little girl, take a seat here!” Lu Qi gave Zhao Yanzi a square stool.
He now remembered seeing Zhao Yanzi at the general exams at the Dragon God Shrine. As a fire-elemental dragon, although he wasn’t close to the East Ocean Dragon Palace, he had to treat her well since she had a close relationship with Hao Ren.
“Thank you!” Zhao Yanzi smiled happily and moved the stool next to Hao Ren before she started leaning on him.
Xie Yujia looked at Zhao Yanzi and shook her head helplessly. “It is obvious that she is here to watch over Hao Ren and me,” she thought.
Zhao Yanzi was sitting right between Hao Ren and Xie Yujia, deliberately separating them from each other.
“It’s nine! Course selection starts now!” Gu Jiadong yelled nervously.
“Try to pick the same courses together!” Yu Rong yelled, “University English, class numbers are 008 and 010, pick Zhao Lihua as the instructor! Theories of Sociology, 02094049, Zhang Haidong…”
The computer lab, which was initially calm and quiet, was suddenly as loud and intense as a battlefield.
“This is my class list,” Xie Yujia gave a piece of paper to Hao Ren.
All the courses Xie Yujia was going to take have been printed out. The courses’ names, class numbers, names of the instructors… everything was included.
Hao Ren looked at Zhou Liren, who was hitting the keyboard crazily to his left, and then at Yu Rong, who had all his veins bulging as he yelled. He thought for a moment, followed Xie Yujia’s class list, and started entering the class numbers into the system.
Most of the classes during the third-year were mandatory. Thus, all the third-year students took these classes together since they had no choices. However, they were still able to take a few non-mandatory courses.
Although the classes on Xie Yujia’s class list might not be the easiest courses, all these classes were scheduled before noon. Therefore, other than some mandatory courses, they had no classes in the afternoons.
This would help Hao Ren and Xie Yujia cultivate on Fifth Heaven without being noticed. Xie Yujia spent a lot of time organizing this class list since she had to make sure they could meet the credit requirements, course requirements, and the scheduling requirements.
The internet was indeed high-speed at this computer lab since Hao Ren and his friends were able to finish picking their courses within a few minutes. Meanwhile, students in the other computer labs were screaming about the crash of the website.
Since Hao Ren copied everything from Xie Yujia’s list, he was going to have all the classes with her this semester.
On the other hand, Zhao Yanzi’s schedule was organized by her class advisor. Therefore, she did not understand why everyone was screaming since she had never experienced the need to pick her own classes before.
“Gongzi!”
Right when Hao Ren finished logging out of the course selection system, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili entered the computer lab joyfully.
“Haha, we got Gongzi’s class list!” Lu Linlin ran toward Hao Ren and grabbed the class list in front of him. Then, she immediately logged into the computer and typed in the information.
Lu Lili took Xie Yujia’s computer and received the class list from Lu Linlin. Then, she entered the class numbers and picked all the courses Hao Ren had.
“Your classes are supposed to be different from mine, right?” Hao Ren looked at them helplessly.
“Bingo!” Lu Linlin made a V-shaped hand gesture. “My sister and I took the program-switching exam at the end of the first year, and we passed!”

"value": "Chapter 22: Request from the Richest Man in Lin Hai\nEarly morning, 7 AM. A black Cadillac SUV stopped in front of the entrance of the Shen Family’s Bodyguard Service. The sniper, wearing a well-ironed black suit, arrived in front of the door but before he could knock, the door was opened from the inside by Xiao Yi who was wearing cowboy shorts and a skintight camisole with her hair styled with a single ponytail.\nIt was clear that Xiao Yi’s mood was not good at all. She still carried the gun in her hand, exposing a fierce glint in her eyes which seemed like it was ready to blow off the head of the person who had come at any moment.\n“Hello beautiful Ms. Xiao Yi, I am Lee Changsoo, Korean. I understand that there are some misunderstandings between us because of how we met yesterday. I apologize towards you for my impertinence. If you agree to holster your gun, I believe we can still be friends.” Lee Changsoo made a great effort to seem amiable. In fact, his looks were very delicate and pretty. He was 178cm tall, skinny and had a sharp chin along with slender eyes as well as fair skin. He really didn’t seem like a sniper who was used to the blowing wind and pouring rain.\n“ Mr. Stick[1], you’re being too polite! My friends don’t use a scope to aim at me and force me to return home drenched. I could have caught a cold, you know?” Xiao Yi threatened with a cold voice, “Moreover, the military use firearms you carry, even if they’re just parts, you still carry the crime of stashing weapons. As a model citizen, shouldn’t I report this to the police?”\n“That’s enough. Let’s go.” Shen Ming wore an ordinary white T-shirt and jeans along with casual shoes and left the house. He looked like he was going for a casual outing.\n“Forgive me for being bold but both of your outfits are a bit too casual.” Lee Changsoo said tactfully.\n“What your BOSS values isn’t my appearance but rather my abilities. Unless your BOSS is looking for a duck[2] rather than a bodyguard.” Shen Ming said to himself as he walked to the car, opened rear door and entered.\n“Is he always so arrogant?” Lee Changsoo asked Xiao Yi in a low voice.\n“Don’t ask me. We’re not that close.” Xiao Yi pushed away the stick in front of her while locking the door in passing and also took a seat in the back seat.\n“Ha… BOSS, is this really a good idea?” Lee Changsoo sighed as he returned to the driver’s seat and set off.\nThe three of them stayed silent during the journey, making the mood a little awkward. After a long while, Shen Ming finally said a sentence, “the car is pretty good.”\n“Isn’t it a Cadillac Escalade SUV? More or less 1000000￥[3], a bit more expensive than an X5.” Xiao Yi obviously wanted to make someone else unhappy.\n“What’s good about this car isn’t the brand but rather the anti-mine vehicle armor plates used for the car’s body, the bulletproof glass and the waterproof high-power diesel engine.The entire set ought to be more expensive than a Rolls-Royce. Even if one barged into the old nest of the Taliban, they could come and go as they like, just like Zhao Yun[4].” Chen Ming was as perceptive[5] as ever and just by listening to the engine’s rumbling as well as seeing how stable the car was when turning, he knew everything about the car.\n“My BOSS is a low-key person that is willing to invest in personal safety.” Lee Changsoo said with a smile. His not yet reshaped small korean eyes turned into lines at the moment he smiled.\n“The need to use this kind of car in the strict firearm controlled harmonious society of China shows that your BOSS must have offended a lot of people. Am I right?” Shen Ming said neutrally while looking out the window.\n“I can’t talk to you about the BOSS due to professional ethics, please understand.” Lee Changsoo adopted a ‘no comment’ stance.\n“Since you don’t wanna talk about BOSS, then let’s talk about you. Although you’re a Korean, you don’t seem to come from the Goryeo Sticks. I have seen Sticks, their snipers are too rigid and inflexible. Also, their breath control isn’t as good as yours. It’s obvious that you’re a soldier who’s seen blood.” Shen Ming was curious about the peer sitting in the front.\n“Mr. Shen Ming eyes are really sharp. That’s right, I became a member of the French Foreign Legion when I was 14. I served in the army for 8 years before getting discharged and meeting BOSS by chance. BOSS recognized my abilities and then I became BOSS’s personal bodyguard. This is already the 5th year since I’ve begun being a bodyguard.” Lee Changsoo recounted his past as if he was not at all speaking to an outsider.\n“You’re just bragging aren’t you? Since when could a 14 year old serve in the army?” Xiao Yi said with contempt.\n“I stowed away into France along with my parents. However, life was difficult due to the language barrier and they abandoned me. I was only 8 that year … … Afterwards, a French uncle took pity on me and offered me shelter. I learnt French and English from him and when I was 14 years old, he met with his death. I was also driven away from the house by Uncle’s relatives, however, Uncle had trusted a person to arrange a fake ID for me.\nLike that, I applied for the examination into the Foreign Legion. Well, from the point of view of those French men, the death of a tiny Asian would be of no concern to them. Therefore, they let me become a member easily.\n“Luckily, I didn’t die during the army’s global operations and once again returned to this city. I’m very satisfied with the life that BOSS has given me.” The feelings of gratitude Lee Changsoo had for his BOSS could be felt from his words.\nEven Xiao Yi who had decided to hate Lee Changsoo for the rest of her life, was completely duped and couldn’t help but show teardrops at her eyes after listening to the story. The motherly instincts within her were aroused, making her feel sympathy for the pitiful man in front of her.\n“You’ve never thought of finding your parents?” Xiao Yi said tearfully.\n“What’s the use when they had already abandoned me? In order to stay alive, no matter what choice the person makes, it is a proper one. I completely understand them. Instead of starving to death together, it’s be better to seek an opportunity for survival separately.” Lee Changsoo said optimistically.\nWhen it comes to survival, nothing is “wrong”. This truth can only be understood by those who have seen the cruelest battlefields.\nLee Changsoo drove the car to the woods on the outskirts of the city. This place was shown as undeveloped land on the map. Even Xiao Yi who was a native never knew that there was a house at this region.\nHouse? That’s not quite right. What appeared in front of them couldn’t be called a house, but rather a genuine European-style manor! A marble fountain, glass house garden, borderless swimming pool, tennis court and even a racecourse.\nThe main building was a four floored rectangular European-style construct. The four marble pillars reaching up to the 3rd floor in front of the door were genuine goods imported from Greece.\n“Is this the difference between the rich and the poor?” Looking at the constructs outside the car window, Xiao Yi blushed with shame.\n“There’s no need to be so shocked, this isn’t BOSS’s home, it’s just a private clubhouse the BOSS developed in order to receive VIP guests. Today’s original booking had been cancelled for the two of you.” Lee Changsoo stopped the car in front of the entrance of the mansion, where old housekeepers who were respectfully waiting went up and opened the car doors for the guests. European-style maids stood at both sides of the red carpet, wearing an amiable welcoming smile. Their high wages could be easily guessed from their smiles …\nFollowing Lee Changsoo across the British-styled floor, they cut through the lobby and headed upstairs. Oil paintings exquisite crystal chandeliers as well as amiable and welcoming servants could be seen everywhere. Each and everything gave Xiao Yi the misconception of entering a European-style imperial palace.\nShe felt a little regretful for not dressing up properly, the street clothes on the body seemed to be even cheaper than the waitress’s work clothes. It was a little embarrassing.\nBut Shen Ming on the contrary wasn’t baffled by the gorgeous surroundings. At this moment, his brain only held curiosity towards the mission and the employer.\nDirectly heading to the main meeting room on the third floor, Lee Changsoo stopped and knocked the door. After hearing a deep ‘Come in’, he opened the door for Shen Ming and Xiao Yi respectfully.\nA man wearing a white suit could be seen standing in front of the bookshelf. The sunshine shined upon him through the patterned french window. He was around 40 years old and exhibited a mature and steady aura.\n“Mr. Shen Ming and Miss. Xiao Yi, please take a seat.” Closing the book in his hand, the man called out to the two with a smile.\nWithout being ordered to do so, Lee Changsoo had already walked to the bar counter and was preparing tea.\n“For starters, please forgive me for last night’s rudeness, Lee Changsoo has already informed me about Mr. Shen Ming’s circumstances. You are indeed an outstanding bodyguard.” The man apologized before giving his self-introduction.\n“Save your horseshit[6]. Who are you?” Shen Ming was only concerned about this.\n“Fang Shiquan? The richest man in Lin Hai…… that Fang Shiquan?” Xiao Yi’s heart thumped the moment she heard this name, as if something broke into pieces.\nIn Lin Hai City, it was normal for a person to not know who a recently appointed mayor was, but finding a person who didn’t know Fang Shiquan was very difficult. This tyrannical chairman had started as a street vendor on the curbs, and entered the real estate industry in the 1990’s. Today, he has already become the chairman of board as well as CEO of the Fangtian Group, which is one of the top 10 real estate dealers in the country. With stocks crossing 30 billion, over 40% of the real estate projects of Lin Hai city are overseen by the Fangtian Group. It could even be said to be the bank-roller among bank-rollers.\nBut, Fang Shiquan was a extremely low-key person who never accepted interviews or participated in public activities. Apart from those in his circle, very very few people knew him. Therefore, Xiao Yi couldn’t recognize him.\n“Wealth is but a physical thing. We’re sitting together as friends today, so don’t treat me as some rich man, it makes us seem distant.” Fang Shiquan gave a scholarly smile. Lee Changsoo had already served the top quality Longjin.\n“I haven’t come here to be friends with Mr. Fang……” Shen Ming said as he took a sip of the hot tea which left an intoxicatingly sweet aftertaste in his mouth. “Because when emotions are involved, business becomes troublesome to discuss.”\n“It seems that what Ms. Dream Jade spoke is correct, you are a very special bodyguard.” Fang Shiquan has been in this business for 30 years and had become even more influential in the past 10 years. In the past, everyone struggled and fought to become his friend but today was the first time his face had been smacked by a person so bluntly.\n“You know Dream Jade too?” Xiao Yi asked curiously.\n“Actually, Ms. Dream Jade was the one who recommended you two to me. After obtaining the championship in the 《China’s Wonderful Sound》, she has already become the major estate project spokesperson for my Fangtian Group. During the first dinner party with her, she didn’t speak much about the collaboration matters but rather unceasingly recommended her former bodyguards me, talking about how good they were, even giving the the number to me before leaving.”\n“Coincidently, I had the need for bodyguards recently. Therefore, I asked Lee Changsoo to contact you two.” Fang Shiquan said as he tasted the tea with a smile. Clearly, Dream Jade had already fulfilled her promise to Shen Ming. Not only did she bring business to him, it was a big business which could let him live extravagantly[7] for half a year!"

第二十二章
清晨7点，一辆黑色的凯迪拉克suv准时停在沈氏保全事务所的门前。 狙击手身着一身笔挺的黑色西装来到了别墅前前，还没敲，门已从内打开，一身牛仔热裤紧身吊带背心，单马尾打扮的肖仪拉开了大门。
显然肖仪的心情并不是太好，手中还提着枪，目露凶光就像随时想打爆来人脑袋一样。 “美丽的肖仪小姐你好，我叫李昌秀，韩国人。
我知道昨天我们的相遇有些误会，我为自己的鲁莽向你道歉，如果你肯关上枪机保险，我觉得我们还是可以做朋友的。” 李昌秀努力表现着亲切，说起来他长得倒很清秀，178的个头身材极其消瘦，尖尖的下巴细细的眼睛，还有白皙的皮肤，确实不太像习惯了风吹雨淋的狙击手。
“棒子先生您太客气了，我的朋友可不会用十字镜瞄我，最后逼得我不得不湿漉漉的回家，我感冒了你知道吗？” 肖仪冷冰冰威胁道，“况且你携带军用枪械，哪怕只是配件也是私藏军火罪，作为良好市民的我是不是该报警呢？”
“别闹了，我们走吧。” 沈冥穿着普通的白色t恤牛仔裤，休闲皮鞋，从屋内走了出来，那样子就像要去郊游一般随意。
李昌秀说得很委婉。 “你的boss看重的是我的能力，又不是我的外型。
除非你的boss要找的不是保镖而是鸭子。” 沈冥自说自话的走到了车前，拉开后车门就上去了。 “他一直都这么目中无人吗？”
李昌秀小声问着肖仪。
“别问我，和你不熟。” 肖仪推开了面前的棒子随手关上了房门，也是坐进了后座。
“唉，boss这样真的好吗？” 李昌秀叹息的回到了车内充当司机带着两位驶离。
旅途上3人沉默不语，略显尴尬。 沈冥过了很久才来上了一句，“车不错。”
“这车不错的不是牌子，而是改装车身使用的反地雷装甲板、防弹玻璃、柴油大功率防水引擎，全套算下来，应该比一辆劳斯莱斯还要贵。
就算是直接开进***的老巢，也能宛若常山赵子龙般杀个7进7出了。” 沈冥依旧是火眼金睛只不过听听引擎的轰鸣，车身转弯时的重量表现就知道了一切。
“我的boss是个低调且愿意为安全投资的人。” 李昌秀微笑道，韩国人未整形的小眼睛，笑起来都变成一条线了。
在大陆这种严格枪械管制的和谐社会，需要开这种车，说明你的boss一定得罪了不少人吧？” 沈冥看着窗外轻声道。
“碍于职业操守，我是不会跟你聊过多关于boss的个人情况，请你谅解。”
李昌秀无可奉告。 “不想聊boss，聊聊你吧，你虽然是韩国人，但却不像棒子部队出身的，我见过棒子兵，狙击手太循规蹈矩，没有你那么舒服的呼吸控制，看得出来，你是见过血的兵。” 沈冥对面前的同行产生了兴趣。
“沈冥先生的眼睛真毒，没错，我十四岁加入了法国外籍兵团服役，当兵8年，退伍后机缘巧合下认识了boss，得boss器重成为了贴身保镖，今年已经是我当保镖的第5个年头了。” 李昌秀毫不见外的述说着自己的过去。
“你就吹吧？ 14岁可以当兵吗？” 肖仪鄙视道。
“我是随父母偷渡去的法国，因为语言不通，生活艰苦，父母抛下了我，那年我只有8岁……后来有位法国老伯可怜收留了我，我跟随他学会了法语和英语，14岁那年，老伯死了，我也被老伯的亲人赶出了已经属于他们的房子，唯一有得就是老伯托人帮我办的假身份证。
就这么我报考了外籍兵团，索性那些法国佬眼里，亚洲人就算长到死也都是我那样的小个子，也就这么让我加入了。
跟随部队全球奔波，幸运的没死，重新回到都市，我对目前boss给予我的生活很满意。” 李昌秀的言语中满是对boss的感激。
而本决定讨厌李昌秀一辈子的肖仪，却是完全听蒙了，眼中不由的泛起了泪光，体内的母性本能发动，对面前可怜的男人满是同情。
“你就没想过找自己的父母吗？” 肖仪含泪道。
人总要向前看吧，为了活着人做什么选择都是正确的，我完全理解他们，于其带着我一起饿死，还不如放下给彼此一个求生的机会。” 李昌秀豁达道。
为了活着，做什么都是正确的，这是只有见过最残忍战场的人才会明白的真理。
沈冥知道，李昌秀和自己就是同一类人，只不过是“危险程度”上的差异而已。 李昌秀将车一路开进了近郊的一片树林，这里地图上显示的都是一片荒地，作为本地人的肖仪都从来不知道这种地方居然还有房子？
不对，出现在他们眼前的不该叫房子，而是货真价实的欧式庄园！ 带大理石喷水池，玻璃房花园，无边游泳池，网球场、甚至跑马场。
主楼是一栋高达4层，长方形的欧式建筑，门前那四根3层高的大理石柱都是从希腊原装进口回来的。 “这就是富人和穷人的区别吗？”
肖仪看着车窗外的建筑汗颜道。
“不用那么震惊，这里并非boss的住所，只不过是boss开发的一个休闲私人会所，用以接待贵宾会员的。 今天因为二位的到来，原本的预订都被取消了。”
跟随李昌秀沿着英伦风格的地板穿过了大堂上楼，随处可见的油画，精致的水晶吊灯还有亲切问好的仆人，无不给肖仪走进了欧式皇宫的错觉。
有些后悔没有精心装扮一下，现在这身地摊货估计还没有服务员的工作服贵，有点不好意思。
反倒沈冥却毫不被周围的华丽环境所迷惑，现在他的脑中只有对任务和雇主的好奇而已。
一直来到了位于3楼的主会客厅，李昌秀才停下脚步敲了敲房门，听到一声浑厚的，“进来”后，他恭敬的为沈冥和肖仪打开了房门。
只见一身白西装的男人正站在房间的书架前，阳光透过格子落地窗照射在他的身上，40多岁的他看上去透着成熟与稳重的气息。
“沈冥先生和肖仪小姐来了，请坐。” 合上了手中的书，男人微笑的招呼二位坐在了沙发上。
不用吩咐，李昌秀已经走到了吧台处，泡起茶来。
“首先请原谅我昨夜的冒昧，关于沈冥先生的情况昌秀已经跟我说了，您确实是出类拔萃的保镖。” 男人自我介绍前先礼貌道歉道。
“马屁就省了，你是谁？” 沈冥只关心这个。
要知道作为林海市人不知道新任市长是谁很正常，不知道方士权的几乎难以找到。
这霸道总裁以路边摊起家，90年代投身地产业，到今天已经是全国闻名的十大地产商方天集团的董事长兼ceo，身价超过300亿，仅林海市超过40%的地产项目都是由方天集团主持开发的，可谓金主中的金主。
不过方士权为人极其低调，从不愿接受采访也不参加公开活动，除了圈内人，认识他的人少之又少，所以才会让肖仪眼拙没有认出来。
“钱财不过身外物，大家今天坐在一起就是朋友，就别什么首富不首富的见外了。” 方士权儒雅一笑，李昌秀泡好的极品龙井已经端上了茶几。
“我到并不想和方先生交朋友……”沈冥边说边端起了热茶轻尝了一口，回甘醉人，“因为有了感情，买卖就不好谈了。”
“看来梦琪小姐说的很对，你是一位很特别的保镖。” 方士权从商30载，在近10年更是如日中天，往日都是他人挣着抢着要和他当朋友，今天到是第一次被人狠狠打脸了。
“你也认识梦琪？” 肖仪好奇道。
“其实就是梦琪小姐推荐我请二位来的，她喜获《中国妙声音》的冠军，现在已经成为了我方天集团的一个重要地产项目的代言人。 一次招待她的饭局上，她并没有聊太多合作的事情，反倒不断跟我推荐着她曾经的保镖怎么怎么好，临走还将号码硬塞给了我。
恰巧最近我还真有保全的需求，所以也就找李昌秀去接触二位了。” 方士权微笑品茶道，显然梦琪已经完成了对沈冥的承诺，不光给他介绍了个活，还是一个开工吃半年的大活！

Chapter 22: Request from the Richest Man in Lin Hai
Early morning, 7 AM. A black Cadillac SUV stopped in front of the entrance of the Shen Family’s Bodyguard Service. The sniper, wearing a well-ironed black suit, arrived in front of the door but before he could knock, the door was opened from the inside by Xiao Yi who was wearing cowboy shorts and a skintight camisole with her hair styled with a single ponytail.
It was clear that Xiao Yi’s mood was not good at all. She still carried the gun in her hand, exposing a fierce glint in her eyes which seemed like it was ready to blow off the head of the person who had come at any moment.
“Hello beautiful Ms. Xiao Yi, I am Lee Changsoo, Korean. I understand that there are some misunderstandings between us because of how we met yesterday. I apologize towards you for my impertinence. If you agree to holster your gun, I believe we can still be friends.” Lee Changsoo made a great effort to seem amiable. In fact, his looks were very delicate and pretty. He was 178cm tall, skinny and had a sharp chin along with slender eyes as well as fair skin. He really didn’t seem like a sniper who was used to the blowing wind and pouring rain.
“ Mr. Stick[1], you’re being too polite! My friends don’t use a scope to aim at me and force me to return home drenched. I could have caught a cold, you know?” Xiao Yi threatened with a cold voice, “Moreover, the military use firearms you carry, even if they’re just parts, you still carry the crime of stashing weapons. As a model citizen, shouldn’t I report this to the police?”
“That’s enough. Let’s go.” Shen Ming wore an ordinary white T-shirt and jeans along with casual shoes and left the house. He looked like he was going for a casual outing.
“Forgive me for being bold but both of your outfits are a bit too casual.” Lee Changsoo said tactfully.
“What your BOSS values isn’t my appearance but rather my abilities. Unless your BOSS is looking for a duck[2] rather than a bodyguard.” Shen Ming said to himself as he walked to the car, opened rear door and entered.
“Is he always so arrogant?” Lee Changsoo asked Xiao Yi in a low voice.
“Don’t ask me. We’re not that close.” Xiao Yi pushed away the stick in front of her while locking the door in passing and also took a seat in the back seat.
“Ha… BOSS, is this really a good idea?” Lee Changsoo sighed as he returned to the driver’s seat and set off.
The three of them stayed silent during the journey, making the mood a little awkward. After a long while, Shen Ming finally said a sentence, “the car is pretty good.”
“Isn’t it a Cadillac Escalade SUV? More or less 1000000￥[3], a bit more expensive than an X5.” Xiao Yi obviously wanted to make someone else unhappy.
“What’s good about this car isn’t the brand but rather the anti-mine vehicle armor plates used for the car’s body, the bulletproof glass and the waterproof high-power diesel engine.The entire set ought to be more expensive than a Rolls-Royce. Even if one barged into the old nest of the Taliban, they could come and go as they like, just like Zhao Yun[4].” Chen Ming was as perceptive[5] as ever and just by listening to the engine’s rumbling as well as seeing how stable the car was when turning, he knew everything about the car.
“My BOSS is a low-key person that is willing to invest in personal safety.” Lee Changsoo said with a smile. His not yet reshaped small korean eyes turned into lines at the moment he smiled.
“The need to use this kind of car in the strict firearm controlled harmonious society of China shows that your BOSS must have offended a lot of people. Am I right?” Shen Ming said neutrally while looking out the window.
“I can’t talk to you about the BOSS due to professional ethics, please understand.” Lee Changsoo adopted a ‘no comment’ stance.
“Since you don’t wanna talk about BOSS, then let’s talk about you. Although you’re a Korean, you don’t seem to come from the Goryeo Sticks. I have seen Sticks, their snipers are too rigid and inflexible. Also, their breath control isn’t as good as yours. It’s obvious that you’re a soldier who’s seen blood.” Shen Ming was curious about the peer sitting in the front.
“Mr. Shen Ming eyes are really sharp. That’s right, I became a member of the French Foreign Legion when I was 14. I served in the army for 8 years before getting discharged and meeting BOSS by chance. BOSS recognized my abilities and then I became BOSS’s personal bodyguard. This is already the 5th year since I’ve begun being a bodyguard.” Lee Changsoo recounted his past as if he was not at all speaking to an outsider.
“You’re just bragging aren’t you? Since when could a 14 year old serve in the army?” Xiao Yi said with contempt.
“I stowed away into France along with my parents. However, life was difficult due to the language barrier and they abandoned me. I was only 8 that year … … Afterwards, a French uncle took pity on me and offered me shelter. I learnt French and English from him and when I was 14 years old, he met with his death. I was also driven away from the house by Uncle’s relatives, however, Uncle had trusted a person to arrange a fake ID for me.
Like that, I applied for the examination into the Foreign Legion. Well, from the point of view of those French men, the death of a tiny Asian would be of no concern to them. Therefore, they let me become a member easily.
“Luckily, I didn’t die during the army’s global operations and once again returned to this city. I’m very satisfied with the life that BOSS has given me.” The feelings of gratitude Lee Changsoo had for his BOSS could be felt from his words.
Even Xiao Yi who had decided to hate Lee Changsoo for the rest of her life, was completely duped and couldn’t help but show teardrops at her eyes after listening to the story. The motherly instincts within her were aroused, making her feel sympathy for the pitiful man in front of her.
“You’ve never thought of finding your parents?” Xiao Yi said tearfully.
“What’s the use when they had already abandoned me? In order to stay alive, no matter what choice the person makes, it is a proper one. I completely understand them. Instead of starving to death together, it’s be better to seek an opportunity for survival separately.” Lee Changsoo said optimistically.
When it comes to survival, nothing is “wrong”. This truth can only be understood by those who have seen the cruelest battlefields.
Lee Changsoo drove the car to the woods on the outskirts of the city. This place was shown as undeveloped land on the map. Even Xiao Yi who was a native never knew that there was a house at this region.
House? That’s not quite right. What appeared in front of them couldn’t be called a house, but rather a genuine European-style manor! A marble fountain, glass house garden, borderless swimming pool, tennis court and even a racecourse.
The main building was a four floored rectangular European-style construct. The four marble pillars reaching up to the 3rd floor in front of the door were genuine goods imported from Greece.
“Is this the difference between the rich and the poor?” Looking at the constructs outside the car window, Xiao Yi blushed with shame.
“There’s no need to be so shocked, this isn’t BOSS’s home, it’s just a private clubhouse the BOSS developed in order to receive VIP guests. Today’s original booking had been cancelled for the two of you.” Lee Changsoo stopped the car in front of the entrance of the mansion, where old housekeepers who were respectfully waiting went up and opened the car doors for the guests. European-style maids stood at both sides of the red carpet, wearing an amiable welcoming smile. Their high wages could be easily guessed from their smiles …
Following Lee Changsoo across the British-styled floor, they cut through the lobby and headed upstairs. Oil paintings exquisite crystal chandeliers as well as amiable and welcoming servants could be seen everywhere. Each and everything gave Xiao Yi the misconception of entering a European-style imperial palace.
She felt a little regretful for not dressing up properly, the street clothes on the body seemed to be even cheaper than the waitress’s work clothes. It was a little embarrassing.
But Shen Ming on the contrary wasn’t baffled by the gorgeous surroundings. At this moment, his brain only held curiosity towards the mission and the employer.
Directly heading to the main meeting room on the third floor, Lee Changsoo stopped and knocked the door. After hearing a deep ‘Come in’, he opened the door for Shen Ming and Xiao Yi respectfully.
A man wearing a white suit could be seen standing in front of the bookshelf. The sunshine shined upon him through the patterned french window. He was around 40 years old and exhibited a mature and steady aura.
“Mr. Shen Ming and Miss. Xiao Yi, please take a seat.” Closing the book in his hand, the man called out to the two with a smile.
Without being ordered to do so, Lee Changsoo had already walked to the bar counter and was preparing tea.
“For starters, please forgive me for last night’s rudeness, Lee Changsoo has already informed me about Mr. Shen Ming’s circumstances. You are indeed an outstanding bodyguard.” The man apologized before giving his self-introduction.
“Save your horseshit[6]. Who are you?” Shen Ming was only concerned about this.
“Fang Shiquan? The richest man in Lin Hai…… that Fang Shiquan?” Xiao Yi’s heart thumped the moment she heard this name, as if something broke into pieces.
In Lin Hai City, it was normal for a person to not know who a recently appointed mayor was, but finding a person who didn’t know Fang Shiquan was very difficult. This tyrannical chairman had started as a street vendor on the curbs, and entered the real estate industry in the 1990’s. Today, he has already become the chairman of board as well as CEO of the Fangtian Group, which is one of the top 10 real estate dealers in the country. With stocks crossing 30 billion, over 40% of the real estate projects of Lin Hai city are overseen by the Fangtian Group. It could even be said to be the bank-roller among bank-rollers.
But, Fang Shiquan was a extremely low-key person who never accepted interviews or participated in public activities. Apart from those in his circle, very very few people knew him. Therefore, Xiao Yi couldn’t recognize him.
“Wealth is but a physical thing. We’re sitting together as friends today, so don’t treat me as some rich man, it makes us seem distant.” Fang Shiquan gave a scholarly smile. Lee Changsoo had already served the top quality Longjin.
“I haven’t come here to be friends with Mr. Fang……” Shen Ming said as he took a sip of the hot tea which left an intoxicatingly sweet aftertaste in his mouth. “Because when emotions are involved, business becomes troublesome to discuss.”
“It seems that what Ms. Dream Jade spoke is correct, you are a very special bodyguard.” Fang Shiquan has been in this business for 30 years and had become even more influential in the past 10 years. In the past, everyone struggled and fought to become his friend but today was the first time his face had been smacked by a person so bluntly.
“You know Dream Jade too?” Xiao Yi asked curiously.
“Actually, Ms. Dream Jade was the one who recommended you two to me. After obtaining the championship in the 《China’s Wonderful Sound》, she has already become the major estate project spokesperson for my Fangtian Group. During the first dinner party with her, she didn’t speak much about the collaboration matters but rather unceasingly recommended her former bodyguards me, talking about how good they were, even giving the the number to me before leaving.”
“Coincidently, I had the need for bodyguards recently. Therefore, I asked Lee Changsoo to contact you two.” Fang Shiquan said as he tasted the tea with a smile. Clearly, Dream Jade had already fulfilled her promise to Shen Ming. Not only did she bring business to him, it was a big business which could let him live extravagantly[7] for half a year!

"value": "Chapter 439\n« Previous\nMedical Charity? Doing charity? Qin Canghai said with a face full of surprise. There were a lot of people who turned from black to white, but they had never seen anyone from the underworld who did charity after that.\nYes, this is a good time for you to create a good image. Also, the companies you are working with are all big ones, so there will be more cooperation in the future. Do you want to stay in these two nightclubs forever? Cheng Yu said.\nBut Young Master Yu, now that we're doing charity, aren't we letting our peers make fun of us? Cheng Yu said.\nFellow peers? Do you want to continue being a gangster?\nCheng Yu said with a cold expression.\nOf course not Seeing Cheng Yu's expression, Qin Canghai's heart tightened and he quickly said.\nThen that's it, this is settled then. Wu Chang, go and discuss this matter with the Wanmei Group tomorrow. Cheng Yu said.\nUnderstood Since the young master had already spoken, who dared to say anything else?\nIf there's nothing else, I'll be on my way Cheng Yu turned around and was about to leave the room.\nYoung Master Yu, wait a moment Qin Canghai suddenly called out to Cheng Yu.\nAnything else?\nA few days ago, the people we sent into the Azure Bamboo Gang were all eliminated. Qin Canghai said with a heavy face.\nEveryone has been killed? Cheng Yu said with a frown.\nNo, none of the evidence were brought out.\nAlright, let's leave this matter for now. Don't send anyone else in. I'll let you arrange it when you need it. Do you know the identity of the deceased? Give their families a pension of one million Cheng Yu said after some thought.\nNaturally, he didn't care too much about this matter. After all, fighting against the underground forces was a matter for the police and the government. However, Zhao Minglong asked for his help, and he didn't think this matter was that difficult.\nNow it seemed that he had been a little too presumptuous, he had to first get more details from his uncle because he could not let his subordinates die in vain\nYes, Young Master Yu. I will arrange it. They had already gotten used to Cheng Yu's generosity.\nWalking on the street and looking at the stalls on the street, Cheng Yu suddenly thought of Lin Yuhan and her mothers stall. He turned around, and headed for the snack street behind Yunhai High School.\nThis street was actually not that far from Yunhai University. However, it was closer to Yunhai High School, but most of the people here were students of Yunhai University.\nAfter all, there were too few students in Yunhai High School. Compared to the students in Yunhai High School, the students in Yunhai University were able to enjoy themselves more\nLooking at the bustling street full of people, and every stall was filled with people. It was likely that every stall earned a lot from doing business here\nAlthough Yunhai was in the south and the weather was slightly warm, it was already almost December and the weather was gradually turning cold. However, Lin Yuhans mother was wearing a very thin, simple sweater, seeing her busy cooking Egg-Fried Rice and wiping the sweat off her face from time to time, it could be seen that business was booming.\nHowever, she did not seem to have suffered any hardship, because her face was always brimming with a contented smile.\nRemembering that her smile resembled Lin Yuhan's smile so much which is both simple and pure. This mother and daughter pair was easily satisfied with what they had, but he had hurt Lin Yuhan's pure and flawless heart.\nAuntie, long time no see. Is business going well? Cheng Yu did not see Lin Yuhan, so he walked up and greeted her with a smile.\nLittle Yu? You're back? I heard from Xiao Han that you went abroad? Why are you back so soon Seeing Cheng Yu appear, Lin Yuhan's mother said with surprise and joy.\nLin Yuhan's mother was very optimistic about Cheng Yu. Not only does he have a good family background, but she also heard that he was the top scorer for the college entrance exam. She originally wanted to have her daughter invite Cheng Yu over as a guest during the holidays.\nAlthough she hadn't agreed with her daughter's love affair when she was in high school, it wasn't the same when she went to college. How many men and women fell in love with each other when they were in college?\nShe didn't encourage her daughter to fall in love in university, but because she already knew of Cheng Yu's existence. After so many meetings, Cheng Yu not only cured her asthma, but also solved quite a bit of trouble for her.\nEver since the police had given her some compensation, her stall business had become more and more popular. There were no longer any troubles.\nEspecially since even the Public Security Bureau Chief was so polite to Cheng Yu, she could tell that Cheng Yu's family background was not ordinary. Moreover, he liked her daughter so much that he even gave up the opportunity to go to Beijing and Hua Xia University. He insisted on staying behind to go to Yunhai University with her daughter.\nFor such a boy, Lin Yuhan's mother was naturally full of joy. However, after hearing that Cheng Yu had gone abroad, she was worried that the matter between him and her daughter.\nNow that she saw Cheng Yu returning, she was naturally very happy.\nHehe, I've been back for a while, but I've been too busy to come see you. I'm sorry Cheng Yu said awkwardly.\nSo that's how it is. Does Xiao Han know you are back? Have you seen her? I also heard that you two are also in the same class Lin Yuhan's mother said happily.\nYes, I went to see her. Cheng Yu said embarrassedly.\nLady Boss. Why isn't my Egg Fried Rice served yet? Suddenly, a customer couldn't wait any longer.\nIt's here, Sorry. Little Yu, wait a moment Lin Yuhan's mother almost forgot that she was still doing business. She quickly scooped up the Egg Fried Rice in the pot and carried it to the customers.\nLittle Yu, what do you want to eat? I'll get it for you Lin Yuhan's mother came back and said warmly.\nNo need, Auntie. I see that you're rather busy, so you don't need to take care of me. Cheng Yu said.\nIt's fine, I'll be done soon\nOh, oh, I'm sorry. it'll be there shortly Lin Yuhan's mother had just beaten eggs into the wok and was preparing to fry a customer's Egg-Fried Rice when she heard a customers shout again.\nAuntie. Let me help you Cheng Yu said.\nHowever, Cheng Yu directly walked into the stall, took out a bowl and placed the vegetables and meatballs in the bowl.\nHe sprinkled the seasonings on top and served it to the customer. Then he began to work on another customer order and put the ingredients into a pot.\nLin Yuhan's mother was stunned. She had not expected that the young master Cheng Yu, who she had always regarded as a person who belonged to a rich, would actually be so efficient in his work.\nLittle Yu, have you done this before? Lin Yuhan's mother said in surprise.\nNo but I usually cook for myself when I'm hungry Cheng Yu said with a smile. Not long after, he scooped up the food in the pot.\nCheng Yu thought for a moment and suddenly remembered the seasonings in his hands. He took them out and sprinkled some into the bowl, then gave them to the customer.\nI really didn't expect you, Little Yu, to be so efficient. If I didn't know you from before, I would have thought that I had mistaken you for someone else. Lin Yuhan's mother said with a smile.\nSeeing that Cheng Yu was so considerate and diligent, Lin Yuhan's mother was even more satisfied. With Cheng Yu's help, she felt much more relaxed and could focus on cooking the Egg-Fried Rice.\nAuntie, why don't you get a few people to help you? Han Han can't come to help you every day even if she wants to since she has to go to school. Cheng Yu said.\nHey, how can I hire anyone to do this? If the salary is too high, we can't open it. If the salary is too low, who would be willing to do it? The stalls around are all being helped by their own family members. I only have one daughter, Xiao Han, so I have no choice but to do it myself. Lin Yuhan's mother sighed.\nAuntie, how about I help you set up a shop? This small business is very tiring and even if keep yourself busy all day, you won't earn much Cheng Yu said.\nThis... But... Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Lin Yuhan's mother's heart was moved.\nLady Boss, why is the taste different from usual today? At this moment, the customer from before spoke up.\nNo, Lady Boss, I just feel that today's taste... It was as if � It seemed to be full of energy. After eating it... It's very comfortable, as if all the pores on my body have opened up, this taste is too wonderful The customer at the table said with a face full of enjoyment.\nHuh? Lin Yuhan's mother could not understand his words.\nReally, Lady Boss, how did you do it? The customer asked curiously.\nReally, Lady Boss, your Malatang is really too good today. I've never eaten such a Malatang before. I feel so comfortable now At this moment, the guests at the other table also began to speak.\nBrother, you must be acting out a play right? This lie is too ridiculous. It's not only you guys who are eating Malatang, why don't we have this feeling? A few other guests said.\nExactly, Lady Boss, these people can't be someone you've asked to act out for you right? This is not the way to deceive consumers The other guests began to talk as well.\nThis... This... Lin Yuhan's mother did not know what to do. She did not understand what was going on!\nAuntie, let me explain. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, just now these two customers had eaten a Malatang that uses our bosses secret ingredient which is also a new product. The Malatang of these last few customers also had our bosses secret ingredient added in, which is why they had this kind of feeling. Please don't misunderstand Cheng Yu said, but Lin Yuhan's mother was still at a loss.\nNew product? Then why did you only give them and not us? Could it be that you are looking down on us? The guests said.\nSorry, this product has just been made. I came here specifically to deliver this new product, so the next few customers Malatang will naturally have a very special taste. Cheng Yu said with a smile."

第四百三十九章
“医……医疗……慈善基金？ 做慈善？”
秦沧海一脸惊诧的说道。 由黑转白的人不少，可是转白以后来做慈善的黑社会他们还真没见过。
“是的！ 这是你们竖立良好形象的好时机，而且跟你们合作的也都是大公司，以后还会有更多的合作，难道你们想永远守着这么两个夜总会吗？” 程宇说道。
“可是宇少，我们搞起慈善来了，岂不是让同行们取笑吗？” 程宇说道。
难不成你还想继续做黑社会吗？”
程宇冷着脸说道。
“当然不想！” 看到程宇的表情，秦沧海心头一紧，赶紧说道。
“那不就得了！ 这件事就这么定了，吴常你明天去找万美集团的老总商量这件事，你们出资三千万就行了！” 程宇说道。
宇少都发话了，大家也不敢再说什么？
“没什么事我就行走了！” 程宇转身便要离开房间。
等一下！” 秦沧海突然急忙叫住程宇。
“还有什么事吗？”
“前些天我们派进青竹帮的人都被清理掉了。”
秦沧海一脸沉重的说道。 “都被清理了？”
所有证据都没有带出来。”
“好了，这件事暂时先这样吧！ 不要再派人进去了，需要的时候我再让你安排。 死者的身份都清楚吗？
自然当初对这事并不是很关心，毕竟反黑是他们警察和政府的事，只不过赵明龙请他帮忙自然是不好推托，而且他也没觉得这事有多难。
现在看来倒是自己有些托大了，还是要先找姑父赵明龙了解一下才行，他这些兄弟也不能白死。
“是的，宇少，我会安排的。” 秦沧海说道，对于程宇的大方，他们都已经见怪不怪了。
走在大街上，看到街上的小摊，程宇突然想起了林雨菡母女俩的麻辣烫小摊。 转身溜进车里便往云海高中后面的那条小吃街去了。
这条小吃街其实离云海大学也不远，只不过离云海高中更近，但是来这里的人却大多是云海大学的学生。
毕竟大学相比，高中的学生实在是太少了，而且跟高中生相比，大学生更有消费能力，也更会享受玩乐！
看着热闹非凡的小吃街，每个摊位上都是坐满了人，想必在这里做生意，每个摊主都赚的不少吧！
程宇老远就看到林母的小摊了，云海虽然在南方，天气稍暖，可是现在已经快十二月份了，天气仍然渐渐转寒了，可是林母却穿的很单薄，一件简单的针织衫，看她忙碌的做着蛋炒饭，时不时的还擦了擦脸上的汗水，足见这生意的红火，也看的出生意的辛苦。
不过在林母的脸上却似乎并没有感觉到辛苦，因为她的脸上一直洋溢着心满意足的笑容。
想起这笑容跟林雨菡的笑容是那么相像，单纯，简单，纯朴，幸福。 这是一对容易满足的母女，可是自己却伤害了林雨菡那颗纯洁无暇的心。
“伯母，好久不见，生意还好吧！” 程宇没有看到林雨菡，走上前去笑着打了个招呼。 “小宇？
你回来了？ 听小菡说你出国了？ 怎么这么快就回来了！”
对于程宇，林母还是很看好的，不仅家世好，而且听说这次高考还是全国的状元，本来假期的时候她就想让女儿邀请程宇来家里做客。
如果说高中的时候，她不是很赞成女儿谈恋爱的话，可是考上大学就不一样了，现在有多少男男女女在大学里面恋爱。
她并不是鼓励女儿要在大学里恋爱，而是因为她早就知道程宇的存在了，经过多次的见面，程宇不仅帮她们母女俩治好了哮喘，而且当初还为她解决了不小的麻烦。
自从上次派出所给予了自己一些补偿后，自己的小摊生意便越来越红火，再也没有发生什么麻烦事了。
尤其是当初连公安分局的局长都对程宇这么客气，也看的出程宇家世确实不一般。 何况他又这么喜欢自己的女儿，听说他连去京都大学和华夏大学的机会都放弃了，硬是留下来跟女儿进了云海大学。
对于这样的男生，林母自然是满心欢喜的。 不过听说程宇出国了以后，她还一直很担心他跟自己女儿的事就这么泡汤了。
现在看到程宇回来了，自然是很高兴的。
“呵呵，回来有些日子了，不过太忙了，都没有时间来看你，很抱歉！” 程宇尴尬的说道。
小菡知道你回来了吗？ 有没有去看过她，听说你们现在又是在同一个班呢？” 林母很是欣喜的说道。
“呵呵，我去看过她了。” 程宇不好意思的说道。
我的蛋炒饭怎么还不上来？” 突然，一个客人等不及了。
小宇，你先等一下！” 林母也差点忘了自己还在做生意了，赶紧把锅里的蛋炒饭捞起来端给了客人。
“小宇，你想吃点什么？ 伯母给你弄！”
“不用了伯母，我看你挺忙的，就不用照顾我了。” 程宇说道。
就好了，马上来！”
林母这边刚把蛋打下锅准备炒下一个客人的蛋炒饭，那边的麻辣烫又要起锅了。 “伯母！
我来帮你吧！” 程宇说道。
可是程宇直接走进小摊里面，拿出一个套上了卫生袋的碗，把锅里烫着的蔬菜肉丸什么的捞了起来放进了碗里。
把那些调料什么的熟练的洒进了碗里，端给了客人。 然后又开始给另一个客人点的菜放进了沸水锅里。
林母看的一阵错愕，没想到在她眼中一直是一个富家公子的程宇，居然干起活来这么利落。
“小宇，你以前做过？” 林母惊讶的说道。
我就是平时自己吃的时候做一做。” 程宇笑着说道，不一会儿，又把锅里的食物捞了起来。
程宇想了想，突然想起自己手上的那些调料，拿出来在碗里洒了一些进去，然后又端给了客人。
“真没想到小宇你干活还这么利落，要不是之前认识你，我还以为是我认错人了呢？” 林母笑着说道。
看到程宇这么体贴，手脚又这么勤快，林母心里是更满意了。 有程宇的帮忙，她也轻松了很多，只管炒蛋炒饭了。
“伯母，你为什么不请几个人来帮忙呢？ 菡菡要上学也不能天天来帮你，你这样一个人多累啊！” 程宇说道。
“哎，我这点小本生意哪里请的到人，工资高了咱开不出来，工资低了谁会愿意做呢？ 周围这些小摊都是自家人在帮忙。
“伯母，要不我帮你盘个店吧！ 这小本生意又累又辛苦，你整天这么忙个不停也不是办法啊！” 程宇说道。
“这……可是……”听到程宇的话，林母心里有些意动。
林母以为是程宇的调料洒的不对，把味道搞坏了，赶紧说道。
“不是，老板娘，我只是觉得今天这个味道……似乎……似乎很带劲，吃下去以后……感觉很舒服，好像全身的毛孔都张开了，这味道太奇怪太美妙了！” 那桌的客人一脸享受的说道。
林母有些不明白对方的话了？
“真的！ 老板娘，你是怎么做到的？” 客人好奇的说道。
“真的哎！ 老板娘，你今天这麻辣烫真是太给力了，我从来没有吃过这么特别的麻辣烫，现在整个人感觉好舒服！” 这时候，另外一桌的客人也说了起来。
“兄弟，你们是云大表演戏的吧？ 这假话说的也太扯了，在这里吃东西的又不是只有你们，我们怎么没有这种感觉。” 另外几个客人说道。
这几人不会是你请来的托吧！ 这样欺骗消费者可不行啊！” 其他客人也说了起来。
“这……这……”林母有些不知所措了，她完全没有弄明白这是怎么回事！
“伯母，我来解释！ 各位，不好意思，刚才这两位朋友的麻辣烫采用的是我们老板娘采用独家秘方制作的最新产品，这后面几位朋友的麻辣烫都加入了这种新产品，所以他们才会有这种感觉。 请大家不要误会！”
“新产品？ 那为什么你们只给他们，不给我们，难道是看不起我们吗？” 那些客人说道。
“不好意思，这产品是刚刚才做好的，而我就是专门过来送这新产品的，所以后面几位朋友的味道自然会很特别。” 程宇笑着说道。

Chapter 439

Medical Charity? Doing charity? Qin Canghai said with a face full of surprise. There were a lot of people who turned from black to white, but they had never seen anyone from the underworld who did charity after that.
Yes, this is a good time for you to create a good image. Also, the companies you are working with are all big ones, so there will be more cooperation in the future. Do you want to stay in these two nightclubs forever? Cheng Yu said.
But Young Master Yu, now that we're doing charity, aren't we letting our peers make fun of us? Cheng Yu said.
Fellow peers? Do you want to continue being a gangster?
Cheng Yu said with a cold expression.
Of course not Seeing Cheng Yu's expression, Qin Canghai's heart tightened and he quickly said.
Then that's it, this is settled then. Wu Chang, go and discuss this matter with the Wanmei Group tomorrow. Cheng Yu said.
Understood Since the young master had already spoken, who dared to say anything else?
If there's nothing else, I'll be on my way Cheng Yu turned around and was about to leave the room.
Young Master Yu, wait a moment Qin Canghai suddenly called out to Cheng Yu.
Anything else?
A few days ago, the people we sent into the Azure Bamboo Gang were all eliminated. Qin Canghai said with a heavy face.
Everyone has been killed? Cheng Yu said with a frown.
No, none of the evidence were brought out.
Alright, let's leave this matter for now. Don't send anyone else in. I'll let you arrange it when you need it. Do you know the identity of the deceased? Give their families a pension of one million Cheng Yu said after some thought.
Naturally, he didn't care too much about this matter. After all, fighting against the underground forces was a matter for the police and the government. However, Zhao Minglong asked for his help, and he didn't think this matter was that difficult.
Now it seemed that he had been a little too presumptuous, he had to first get more details from his uncle because he could not let his subordinates die in vain
Yes, Young Master Yu. I will arrange it. They had already gotten used to Cheng Yu's generosity.
Walking on the street and looking at the stalls on the street, Cheng Yu suddenly thought of Lin Yuhan and her mothers stall. He turned around, and headed for the snack street behind Yunhai High School.
This street was actually not that far from Yunhai University. However, it was closer to Yunhai High School, but most of the people here were students of Yunhai University.
After all, there were too few students in Yunhai High School. Compared to the students in Yunhai High School, the students in Yunhai University were able to enjoy themselves more
Looking at the bustling street full of people, and every stall was filled with people. It was likely that every stall earned a lot from doing business here
Although Yunhai was in the south and the weather was slightly warm, it was already almost December and the weather was gradually turning cold. However, Lin Yuhans mother was wearing a very thin, simple sweater, seeing her busy cooking Egg-Fried Rice and wiping the sweat off her face from time to time, it could be seen that business was booming.
However, she did not seem to have suffered any hardship, because her face was always brimming with a contented smile.
Remembering that her smile resembled Lin Yuhan's smile so much which is both simple and pure. This mother and daughter pair was easily satisfied with what they had, but he had hurt Lin Yuhan's pure and flawless heart.
Auntie, long time no see. Is business going well? Cheng Yu did not see Lin Yuhan, so he walked up and greeted her with a smile.
Little Yu? You're back? I heard from Xiao Han that you went abroad? Why are you back so soon Seeing Cheng Yu appear, Lin Yuhan's mother said with surprise and joy.
Lin Yuhan's mother was very optimistic about Cheng Yu. Not only does he have a good family background, but she also heard that he was the top scorer for the college entrance exam. She originally wanted to have her daughter invite Cheng Yu over as a guest during the holidays.
Although she hadn't agreed with her daughter's love affair when she was in high school, it wasn't the same when she went to college. How many men and women fell in love with each other when they were in college?
She didn't encourage her daughter to fall in love in university, but because she already knew of Cheng Yu's existence. After so many meetings, Cheng Yu not only cured her asthma, but also solved quite a bit of trouble for her.
Ever since the police had given her some compensation, her stall business had become more and more popular. There were no longer any troubles.
Especially since even the Public Security Bureau Chief was so polite to Cheng Yu, she could tell that Cheng Yu's family background was not ordinary. Moreover, he liked her daughter so much that he even gave up the opportunity to go to Beijing and Hua Xia University. He insisted on staying behind to go to Yunhai University with her daughter.
For such a boy, Lin Yuhan's mother was naturally full of joy. However, after hearing that Cheng Yu had gone abroad, she was worried that the matter between him and her daughter.
Now that she saw Cheng Yu returning, she was naturally very happy.
Hehe, I've been back for a while, but I've been too busy to come see you. I'm sorry Cheng Yu said awkwardly.
So that's how it is. Does Xiao Han know you are back? Have you seen her? I also heard that you two are also in the same class Lin Yuhan's mother said happily.
Yes, I went to see her. Cheng Yu said embarrassedly.
Lady Boss. Why isn't my Egg Fried Rice served yet? Suddenly, a customer couldn't wait any longer.
It's here, Sorry. Little Yu, wait a moment Lin Yuhan's mother almost forgot that she was still doing business. She quickly scooped up the Egg Fried Rice in the pot and carried it to the customers.
Little Yu, what do you want to eat? I'll get it for you Lin Yuhan's mother came back and said warmly.
No need, Auntie. I see that you're rather busy, so you don't need to take care of me. Cheng Yu said.
It's fine, I'll be done soon
Oh, oh, I'm sorry. it'll be there shortly Lin Yuhan's mother had just beaten eggs into the wok and was preparing to fry a customer's Egg-Fried Rice when she heard a customers shout again.
Auntie. Let me help you Cheng Yu said.
However, Cheng Yu directly walked into the stall, took out a bowl and placed the vegetables and meatballs in the bowl.
He sprinkled the seasonings on top and served it to the customer. Then he began to work on another customer order and put the ingredients into a pot.
Lin Yuhan's mother was stunned. She had not expected that the young master Cheng Yu, who she had always regarded as a person who belonged to a rich, would actually be so efficient in his work.
Little Yu, have you done this before? Lin Yuhan's mother said in surprise.
No but I usually cook for myself when I'm hungry Cheng Yu said with a smile. Not long after, he scooped up the food in the pot.
Cheng Yu thought for a moment and suddenly remembered the seasonings in his hands. He took them out and sprinkled some into the bowl, then gave them to the customer.
I really didn't expect you, Little Yu, to be so efficient. If I didn't know you from before, I would have thought that I had mistaken you for someone else. Lin Yuhan's mother said with a smile.
Seeing that Cheng Yu was so considerate and diligent, Lin Yuhan's mother was even more satisfied. With Cheng Yu's help, she felt much more relaxed and could focus on cooking the Egg-Fried Rice.
Auntie, why don't you get a few people to help you? Han Han can't come to help you every day even if she wants to since she has to go to school. Cheng Yu said.
Hey, how can I hire anyone to do this? If the salary is too high, we can't open it. If the salary is too low, who would be willing to do it? The stalls around are all being helped by their own family members. I only have one daughter, Xiao Han, so I have no choice but to do it myself. Lin Yuhan's mother sighed.
Auntie, how about I help you set up a shop? This small business is very tiring and even if keep yourself busy all day, you won't earn much Cheng Yu said.
This... But... Hearing Cheng Yu's words, Lin Yuhan's mother's heart was moved.
Lady Boss, why is the taste different from usual today? At this moment, the customer from before spoke up.
No, Lady Boss, I just feel that today's taste... It was as if � It seemed to be full of energy. After eating it... It's very comfortable, as if all the pores on my body have opened up, this taste is too wonderful The customer at the table said with a face full of enjoyment.
Huh? Lin Yuhan's mother could not understand his words.
Really, Lady Boss, how did you do it? The customer asked curiously.
Really, Lady Boss, your Malatang is really too good today. I've never eaten such a Malatang before. I feel so comfortable now At this moment, the guests at the other table also began to speak.
Brother, you must be acting out a play right? This lie is too ridiculous. It's not only you guys who are eating Malatang, why don't we have this feeling? A few other guests said.
Exactly, Lady Boss, these people can't be someone you've asked to act out for you right? This is not the way to deceive consumers The other guests began to talk as well.
This... This... Lin Yuhan's mother did not know what to do. She did not understand what was going on!
Auntie, let me explain. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, just now these two customers had eaten a Malatang that uses our bosses secret ingredient which is also a new product. The Malatang of these last few customers also had our bosses secret ingredient added in, which is why they had this kind of feeling. Please don't misunderstand Cheng Yu said, but Lin Yuhan's mother was still at a loss.
New product? Then why did you only give them and not us? Could it be that you are looking down on us? The guests said.
Sorry, this product has just been made. I came here specifically to deliver this new product, so the next few customers Malatang will naturally have a very special taste. Cheng Yu said with a smile.

"value": "Chapter 191 - Three Times\n“At this rate, we’ll have to walk for a week to reach our destination,” said Gao Peng to his familiars after chasing off the swarm of mosquitoes. “This is the wilderness. All of you better behave yourselves now!”\nWhen he was done reprimanding the familiars, Gao Peng produced a square fur blanket from Silly’s portable space. There was a piece of rope on all four corners of the blanket, and Gao Peng proceeded to tie the ropes around Stripey’s legs. The familiar’s movements wouldn’t be impeded, as the ropes themselves were quite thin.\nGao Peng then mounted Stripey and shifted his rear a few times until he was settled in a comfortable sitting position.\n“Dumby, wrap Da Zi around your waist. We’d best get a move on and find a place to sleep for the night.”\nAfter hearing his order, the familiars quickened their paces.\nAt first, Gao Peng had a bit of motion sickness while riding Stripey. After a while, he grew used to it.\nAlong the way, they startled a couple of monsters in the area. However, Gao Peng’s party was moving at such a high speed, and the monsters sensed the Commander-tier auras of Stripey and the others, so as a result, they simply let Gao Peng’s party through their territory.\nA fierce wind slapped against Gao Peng’s face. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the scenery flying past him.\nIn front of them was a stream. A couple of mossy rocks jutted out from the middle of the stream. Gao Peng suddenly saw a black silhouette out of the corner of his eye when Stripey entered the stream.\nIn the next second, he felt himself flying into the air.\nIt was as if someone had sent him flying with a punch to the chest.\nIt didn’t hurt much, though. Only after Gao Peng fell into the water with a splash did he see what had attacked him.\nA black lump was stuck firmly to his chest like jelly. For a moment, he couldn’t even tell what it was.\nDumby rushed over and pulled the unknown object off his chest. Only then was Gao Peng able to clearly recognize the assailant.\nGao Peng had been knocked off Stripey’s back by this monster. He looked around him.\nA number of translucent shapes in the water were now circling them.\n“Let’s get out of here,” said Gao Peng as he clambered up to Dumby’s back. Everyone quickly got out of the stream.\nA couple of Mountain Leeches were still clinging onto Da Zi, Stripey, and Dumby after they were out of the water.\nWith a burst of electricity, Da Zi electrocuted the leeches on his back into ash.\nDumby threw the leech in its hand to the ground with a splat. The leech continued to squirm on the ground, covered with a thick layer of sticky, transparent fluid. Its skin looked coarse and granular.\nThe leech now looked like a fish out of water. It began crawling desperately towards the stream after figuring out where it was.\nA thick mound of leeches had piled up on the edges of the stream. Their bodies had appeared translucent when they were immersed in water, but after leaving the water, their bodies immediately turned black. However, none of them dared to leave the stream. A few leeches cautiously touched the wet dirt before shrinking back, as if going any further would mean death.\nA thought suddenly sprung up in Gao Peng’s head after seeing this curious phenomenon. He took out his tablet. There was still one signal bar showing on it.\nGao Peng set his position to his current location, then tapped on the tablet a few times before pressing “Save.”\nPutting back his tablet, Gao Peng once again straddled Stripey and said, “Let’s go.”\nAfter travelling another two miles through the forest, another black shape flashed before them. Gao Peng suddenly felt as if he had been plucked off his mount. Everything went dark around him, a pungent smell assaulting his nostrils. It nearly knocked him out.\nDumby had taken the hit for him. A sickening crunching sound came from its skull. Dumby then slammed its right foot into the ground and swung its left arm out in one fluid motion.\nThe Storm Panther that had attacked them was sent flying into a tree. At that moment, Gao Peng fell to the ground.\nBefore the enraged Dumby could do any further damage, the Storm Panther quickly got up and slunk back into the shadows.\nFlamy wanted to chase after it. However, the forest was just too dangerous. Gao Peng didn’t dare let Flamy pursue the panther in the forest by itself.\nGao Peng glanced at where the Wind Panther had disappeared and spat on the ground. “Don’t let me catch you, panther. The next time we meet, I’ll definitely skin you alive.”\nThen he mounted Stripey, and his party continued moving towards their destination.\nThe sun gradually sank in the west. The temperature had also dropped considerably.\n“Let’s keep going for ten more minutes, then we’ll find someplace to rest,” said Gao Peng encouragingly to his familiars.\nStripey came to a halt and began looking around his surroundings in confusion.\nWhere did my master’s assailant disappear to?\nGao Peng got back to his feet, anger now burning in him. This was the third time!\nThe third time!\nDamn it, I’m the only one being targeted. Do they really think I’m the weakest link of this party?\nGao Peng was about to lose his temper.\nThey were now standing in a wide clearing with only a huge palm tree in the middle.\nGao Peng’s eyes were fixed on the palm tree. His lips were curved up into a cold smile.\nSo you like playing games, huh? Let’s see how long you can keep this up then.\nGao Peng called his familiars back, then gave an order to Da Zi and Flamy through his Blood Contracts with them.\n“Burn it to the ground!” Flamy’s eyes lit up. It flew up into the sky, the air around its wings visibly distorted. Seconds later, flames appeared out of thin air and began swirling along with the wind until they turned into fireballs.\nThe spinning fireballs hurtled towards the palm tree.\nBoom, boom, boom… The fireballs struck the tree so its leaves were on fire. The palm tree, which had been standing motionlessly all this time, suddenly began shaking its trunk, branches, and leaves violently. [Monster Name]: Golden Palm Tree Spirit\nBalls of electricity burst forth from Da Zi’s forehead. The tree spirit was now covered in flames. Despite gaining consciousness, it was still merely a tree.\nThe Golden Palm Tree Spirit howled in pain under the flurry of fire and electricity. Finally, it was reduced to nothing more than a smouldering pile of ash."

第一百九十一章
驱赶蚊群后高鹏训斥几只御兽，“这里是野外，你们不要像平时那么皮，给我好好听话！”
训完几只御兽，高鹏从阿蠢的随身空间里取出一个方形毛毯，毯子的四个角都有绳子，将绳子系在阿斑的脚肢根部，绳子很细，并不会影响阿斑行动。
然后高鹏一屁股坐在阿斑背上，挪动几下屁股，感觉还算舒适。
“阿呆，你把大紫系在腰上，我们走快点，晚上找个好地方歇息下。”
高鹏下了死令，这一次几只御兽的速度快了不少。
骑在阿斑的背上一开始还感觉很摇晃，但习惯后也就免疫了。
中途也有一些怪物被惊动，但高鹏一行的速度很快，从它们领地穿过去后并未停留，而且它们也察觉到阿斑它们身上的首领级气息，所以这些怪物也就默许高鹏一行人的从领地内经过。
狂风吹拂在脸上，高鹏眼睛眯起，望着从身旁穿过去的景色。
前面是条溪流，几块长满青苔的大石稳稳立在溪流正中央，阿斑从溪流上层经过的瞬间，高鹏只瞅得眼角闪过一团黑影。
下一刻就感觉自己飞了起来。
像是胸前被人锤了一拳。
倒是没有多疼，随后噗通一声落入溪流中，这时候高鹏才看见袭击自己的是什么东西。
一坨黑色的东西就像果冻一样死死黏在自己胸前，一时间根本看不清楚是什么。
阿呆两步横跨过来，一弯腰就将粘在自己胸前的东西捞起来，高鹏这才看清楚。
自己就是被这只怪物从阿斑背上撞下来的，高鹏想到什么，观察四周水域。
在周围的溪流里，一团团半透明的身躯正在不断围堵过来。
“先离开这里。” 高鹏搭着阿呆的肋骨向上爬，一行人迅速离开这条溪流。
上岸后，大紫、阿斑还有阿呆的身上或多或少都缠绕了一些山隐水蛭。
大紫周身电光一闪，爬在它背上的水蛭瞬间被电成一团焦炭。
阿呆将手中的水蛭狠狠一摔，水蛭啪的一声黏在地上，然后缓缓蠕动，皮肤表面还有大量粘稠透明的液体，它的皮肤看上去粗糙而又富有颗粒感。
水蛭离开水环境后似乎很不适应，脑袋摇晃，最后判断溪流的位置，拼命想要爬回溪流。
在溪流边缘，堆砌了厚厚的一层水蛭，这些水蛭身躯没入水中时就呈半透明，离开水面后又显现出黑色，但没有一只敢于离开溪流，有几只水蛭小心翼翼的触碰了湿润的泥土，然后又缩回去，似乎岸上对它们而言是大恐怖一样。
看见这种奇特的表现高鹏若有所思，取出平板，平板还有一格信号。
选择定位当前位置，在平板上敲击几下，点击保存。
收起平板，高鹏重新骑上阿斑，“继续走。”
刚走不到两公里，又是一团黑影从眼前闪过，然后高鹏感觉自己被叼了起来，脑袋进入了一个黑漆漆的环境，一股浓烈的腥臭差点把他熏晕过去。
右脚猛然一踩地面，脊椎如大龙，节节攀升，左臂旋转，身形瞬息暴起，一巴掌抽出去。
疾风豹被硬生生抽飞，狠狠撞在一棵树上，高鹏也随之被甩落在地。
愤怒的阿呆冲上前，疾风豹赶紧爬起来夹起尾巴一溜烟的跑掉了。
小焱倒是想要追上去，但这森林里危险太多，高鹏不敢让小焱独自一鸟追上去，也就作罢。
恨恨的看了眼消失不见的疾风豹，高鹏吐了口吐沫，“豹崽子，别让我逮到你，否则一定扒了你的皮。”
重新坐上阿斑的背，一行人继续向目的地出发。
太阳日渐西斜，空气中的温度也下降了许多。
“大家伙再加把劲，继续走十分钟我们今天找个地方就好好休息。” 高鹏鼓励道。
阿斑脚步猛然一停，疑惑的打量四周，阿斑也停下脚步，转而看向四方。
诶，刚才袭击主人的那家伙呢，怎么不见了？
高鹏从地上爬起来，只感觉心底有一团火在熊熊燃烧，这是第三次了！
第三次了！
你妹的，全部都来打我，是不是觉得我高鹏是队伍里最弱的？
高鹏快气炸了，怎么一个二个全部都来袭击自己。
这是一片宽敞的空地，空地中央除了一株很大的蒲葵树以外没有任何多余的东西。
高鹏死死盯着这棵蒲葵树。 嘴角渐渐勾起，勾勒出一抹冷笑。
既然你喜欢装，那我就看你能够忍到什么时候。
然后通过血契对大紫和小焱下达命令。 “给我狠狠烧它！”
小焱眼睛一亮，飞上天空，翅膀周围的空气扭曲，然后一团团火苗凭空诞生，火苗随风旋转，继而火焰越来越大，化为一颗颗火球。
火球在半空中疯狂旋转，然后齐刷刷的飞向蒲葵树。
火球接连命中蒲葵树，火焰落在蒲葵树树叶上，火势升腾，一直静静不动的蒲葵树突然剧烈摇晃起来，树枝疯狂颤抖，蒲扇般的树叶疯狂摇晃。
同时还有一缕缕火焰化为长绳缠绕在树妖身上，哪怕成了精，哪怕拥有了简单的意识，也毕竟只是一棵树。
被雷霆火焰接连轰炸，金边蒲葵树妖惨叫连连，最后被烧成一团灰烬。

Chapter 191 - Three Times
“At this rate, we’ll have to walk for a week to reach our destination,” said Gao Peng to his familiars after chasing off the swarm of mosquitoes. “This is the wilderness. All of you better behave yourselves now!”
When he was done reprimanding the familiars, Gao Peng produced a square fur blanket from Silly’s portable space. There was a piece of rope on all four corners of the blanket, and Gao Peng proceeded to tie the ropes around Stripey’s legs. The familiar’s movements wouldn’t be impeded, as the ropes themselves were quite thin.
Gao Peng then mounted Stripey and shifted his rear a few times until he was settled in a comfortable sitting position.
“Dumby, wrap Da Zi around your waist. We’d best get a move on and find a place to sleep for the night.”
After hearing his order, the familiars quickened their paces.
At first, Gao Peng had a bit of motion sickness while riding Stripey. After a while, he grew used to it.
Along the way, they startled a couple of monsters in the area. However, Gao Peng’s party was moving at such a high speed, and the monsters sensed the Commander-tier auras of Stripey and the others, so as a result, they simply let Gao Peng’s party through their territory.
A fierce wind slapped against Gao Peng’s face. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at the scenery flying past him.
In front of them was a stream. A couple of mossy rocks jutted out from the middle of the stream. Gao Peng suddenly saw a black silhouette out of the corner of his eye when Stripey entered the stream.
In the next second, he felt himself flying into the air.
It was as if someone had sent him flying with a punch to the chest.
It didn’t hurt much, though. Only after Gao Peng fell into the water with a splash did he see what had attacked him.
A black lump was stuck firmly to his chest like jelly. For a moment, he couldn’t even tell what it was.
Dumby rushed over and pulled the unknown object off his chest. Only then was Gao Peng able to clearly recognize the assailant.
Gao Peng had been knocked off Stripey’s back by this monster. He looked around him.
A number of translucent shapes in the water were now circling them.
“Let’s get out of here,” said Gao Peng as he clambered up to Dumby’s back. Everyone quickly got out of the stream.
A couple of Mountain Leeches were still clinging onto Da Zi, Stripey, and Dumby after they were out of the water.
With a burst of electricity, Da Zi electrocuted the leeches on his back into ash.
Dumby threw the leech in its hand to the ground with a splat. The leech continued to squirm on the ground, covered with a thick layer of sticky, transparent fluid. Its skin looked coarse and granular.
The leech now looked like a fish out of water. It began crawling desperately towards the stream after figuring out where it was.
A thick mound of leeches had piled up on the edges of the stream. Their bodies had appeared translucent when they were immersed in water, but after leaving the water, their bodies immediately turned black. However, none of them dared to leave the stream. A few leeches cautiously touched the wet dirt before shrinking back, as if going any further would mean death.
A thought suddenly sprung up in Gao Peng’s head after seeing this curious phenomenon. He took out his tablet. There was still one signal bar showing on it.
Gao Peng set his position to his current location, then tapped on the tablet a few times before pressing “Save.”
Putting back his tablet, Gao Peng once again straddled Stripey and said, “Let’s go.”
After travelling another two miles through the forest, another black shape flashed before them. Gao Peng suddenly felt as if he had been plucked off his mount. Everything went dark around him, a pungent smell assaulting his nostrils. It nearly knocked him out.
Dumby had taken the hit for him. A sickening crunching sound came from its skull. Dumby then slammed its right foot into the ground and swung its left arm out in one fluid motion.
The Storm Panther that had attacked them was sent flying into a tree. At that moment, Gao Peng fell to the ground.
Before the enraged Dumby could do any further damage, the Storm Panther quickly got up and slunk back into the shadows.
Flamy wanted to chase after it. However, the forest was just too dangerous. Gao Peng didn’t dare let Flamy pursue the panther in the forest by itself.
Gao Peng glanced at where the Wind Panther had disappeared and spat on the ground. “Don’t let me catch you, panther. The next time we meet, I’ll definitely skin you alive.”
Then he mounted Stripey, and his party continued moving towards their destination.
The sun gradually sank in the west. The temperature had also dropped considerably.
“Let’s keep going for ten more minutes, then we’ll find someplace to rest,” said Gao Peng encouragingly to his familiars.
Stripey came to a halt and began looking around his surroundings in confusion.
Where did my master’s assailant disappear to?
Gao Peng got back to his feet, anger now burning in him. This was the third time!
The third time!
Damn it, I’m the only one being targeted. Do they really think I’m the weakest link of this party?
Gao Peng was about to lose his temper.
They were now standing in a wide clearing with only a huge palm tree in the middle.
Gao Peng’s eyes were fixed on the palm tree. His lips were curved up into a cold smile.
So you like playing games, huh? Let’s see how long you can keep this up then.
Gao Peng called his familiars back, then gave an order to Da Zi and Flamy through his Blood Contracts with them.
“Burn it to the ground!” Flamy’s eyes lit up. It flew up into the sky, the air around its wings visibly distorted. Seconds later, flames appeared out of thin air and began swirling along with the wind until they turned into fireballs.
The spinning fireballs hurtled towards the palm tree.
Boom, boom, boom… The fireballs struck the tree so its leaves were on fire. The palm tree, which had been standing motionlessly all this time, suddenly began shaking its trunk, branches, and leaves violently. [Monster Name]: Golden Palm Tree Spirit
Balls of electricity burst forth from Da Zi’s forehead. The tree spirit was now covered in flames. Despite gaining consciousness, it was still merely a tree.
The Golden Palm Tree Spirit howled in pain under the flurry of fire and electricity. Finally, it was reduced to nothing more than a smouldering pile of ash.

"value": "Although Lu Zhaoge was not anything like a handsome old man previously, but he had occupied such a powerful position for so long. Adding to this was the fact that he had already achieved great success in his martial cultivation; it caused him to radiate an air of authority and prestige. There was an aura of glory radiating around him, and he could definitely be called a person without peers. But right now, this deity of the [Youyan army] was completely withered up, like a dry branch. There was barely any aura of life from him at all, his skin tightly stretched onto his bones. It was as his if entire flesh body has been completely sucked dry by something, causing his entire person to become like a corpse.\nLu Zhaoge was currently using his utmost to activate his yuan power, resisting against the two strange and bizarre powers within his body.\nIt was only that the golden light previously emitted was currently flickering. Compared to the previous days, this golden light had already diminished significantly.\nIt was really hard for someone to believe that the old man sitting on that mat like a withered tree was previously the deity of the [Youyan army].\nAn entire two hours passed.\nA jet of blood spat out from Lu Zhaoge's lips.\nBoom! When the black-coloured blood landed on the floor, there was a great pit that was instantly made from the erosion. Flames flickered from it, emitting a peculiar aura of evil.\nSeeing this scene, Mister Liu, Liu Siufeng and Zhang San were all utterly shocked.\n\"Big brother, are you okay?\" Zhang San was the first to rush over, holding Lu Zhaoge with utmost care.\nThe other people also instantly encircled him.\nLu Zhaoge slowly opened his eyes, drawing in a long deep breath. He minutely nodded his head. With a bitter smile. \"I'm fine, it's just that… I failed again.\" Previously, when he had attempted to erase the strange powers within his body, he purely thought he would use his ultimate yuan powers to directly eject and erase the curse from the bone dagger as well as the flames of darkness. There was not a need to waste his blood essence. But in these days, even if he used his blood essence to eject these strange powers from within his blood, it would not work.\nFor an extreme level expert like him, every drop of blood was incomparably precious. It was the result of many long years of cultivation. Cutting his own blood essence away was equal to him decreasing in power and was comparable to a normal person crippling themselves. But there still were not any effects.\nHis chests that was rapidly heaving gradually settled down.\n\"I don't care. Could it be that those retards of the Imperial family really eats shit? They still haven't sent the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] here after such a long time. I can't wait anymore. Big brother, let me personally go to the Capital. Even if I have to take it by force, I'll get the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] for you to recover from your injuries!\" Zhang San's face was completely red with fury. He could not help but bellow in rage.\n\"I'll accompany him.\" Liu Siufeng also tightly clenched his fist.\nIn front of other people, they were powerful great figures, legendary people that were like high mountains. But right now, these commanders seemed to have reverted to what they were like in their youth, turning frantic and impatient.\n\"I'll also go.\" Peng Yizhen grinded his teeth.\nLiu Yuqing's face faintly changed. He wanted to say something, but in the end did not utter a word.\n\"Cough, cough…\" Lu Zhaoge wanted to speak, but all that came out was a dry cough. Another trickle of blood appeared on the corner of his lips. Everyone was greatly shocked and did not dare to say anything anymore. After several coughs, Lu Zhaoge finally recovered his composure, giving Zhang San a glare in anger. \"Close your mouth. You've already caused enough trouble recently. You want to go out and cause even more chaos?\" Zhang San's personality was conceited and prideful and would pay attention to no one normally. But right now, he was like a child who was being berated by an elder. He lowered his head with fear and respect: \"Big brother, I…\"” \"Sigh, fine. It's also not easy being you in these years…\" Lu Zhaoge let out a sigh, a faint sign of guilt flickering across his face. \"Old San, you… could you let this go. If you let this go right now, there’s still time\" There was a sentimental sign that flickered across Zhang San's eyes, but he shook his head in the end. \"Big brother, I know you mean the best for me. But the things that I have decided on, I will never abandon halfway.\" The two other great commanders, Peng Yizhen and Liu Siufeng, had faces of dim sadness.\n\"Pass Lord, your current condition…\" Liu Yuqing opened his mouth, breaking the suffocating silence in the room.\nLu Zhaoge shook his head.\nLiu Yuqing's complexion changed, as if he had made a great decision. Biting his teeth, \"Great Commander, let me go to the Imperial capital. I have a method, to obtain the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon].\" Everyone’s gaze fell on Liu Yuqing.\nLu Zhaoge looked at the [Painting Saint], then smiled. \"I know what you mean. But, even if I have the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] right now, it's already too late. The curse of the bone dagger of the demons has already deeply penetrated into my body. I managed to forcefully protect some veins in my heart only. Even the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] will not have any effect.\" \"What?\" \"Brother, this…\" \"It can't be…\" As these words were said, all the great figures in this room was utterly shaken.\nZhang San suddenly stood up, clenching his fists, biting his teeth. The expression on his face was unprecedentedly furious. Taking several steps backwards, there were strands of blood that appeared on his eyes, as if he wanted to killing someone. Taking another look at Lu Zhaoge, he suddenly kneeled down, bowing to him three times. Without saying a single word, he rose and left for the outside… \"Old San, you…\" Liu Siufeng wanted to say something.\nLu Zhaoge waved his hands. \"Just let him go.\" The silence in the room was so quiet it was terrifying.\nThere was a faint smile on Lu Zhaoge's face. Unexpectedly, it seemed his entire body was at ease.\n\"A person's life naturally has its own end. The universe is so large, you and me are after all a little floating raft in the ocean… no matter how sturdy this little raft, don't forget that there is a day that the waves will overturn this raft. Just how many rafts are truly able to endure the waves of the great ocean and successfully reach the shore?\" Lu Zhaoge said calmly without emotion.\n\"But brother…\" Liu Siufeng had not even spoken, but tears had already covered his face.\nThere were sounds of sobbing able to be heard from behind him.\nFor the great and mighty Commander, above everyone, having killed an unknown number of demons with powerful auras, to have such tears flowing from down his face.\nTears do not fall easily down a man's face.\nBut this means the time to hurt has not yet come.\nSeeing the man that they normally respected and revered as a god saying a speech like his last words, even a man made out of steel would have his heart broken.\nThinking back, when the seven had sworn oaths as brothers, they were like a raft in this warring times, withstanding against the currents. They laughed at the heroes all around the world, influencing the flow of the country, just how great and powerful they were, But even the most stunning and peerless people could not withstand against the merciless cuts of time… This day, would it really arrive? \"A group of men, crying like women…\" Lu Zhaoge rarely swore but he did so now. With a smile, \"On the battle that year, I already hurt my foundation. For me to last this long is already a favour by the heavens. I have no regrets, but it's only that the matters are a bit chaotic within Youyan Pass right now…\" \"I'll go immediately. I'll gather the army and slaughter those useless trashes of the sects…\" Liu Siufeng wiped away the tears on his face, his face completely red. He said these words with a ferocious flare.\n\"Your personality is exactly as brash as Zhang San. In these many years, I made you knead those metal balls every day to calm your temperament but it seems it has had no effect whatsoever.\" Lu Zhaoge reprimanded with a smile.\nTen years ago, the [Butcher of Youyan] Liu Siufeng had suddenly carried two steel balls that did not leave him at all, playing with it constantly. It was said that he even carried it in his sleep. No one knew just why he did this, only a rare minority knew that it was casual words that Lu Zhaoge had briefly mentioned in a meeting between the brothers, telling him to use steel balls to temper his personality that Liu Siufeng treated seriously.\nLiu Yuqing stood dumbly by one side, his thoughts unknown.\nAfter a short while, his eyes brightened. He quickly rushed to say, \"Pass Lord, do you remember, there was someone that had imprisoned a drop of your blood. That person is extremely mysterious, so much so that even you aren't able to sense his existence. If we can find out where he is and bring him here, perhaps…\" Lu Zhaoge let out a bitter laugh. \"That person's strength is so strong that even I cannot find him. It is not an easy task to discover who he is. Even if I utilized the entire army and search foot by foot, it is likely that we cannot find him. For such a person to disappear, it is impossible for us to find him… eh?\" As he said these last words, there was a stunned expression on Lu Zhaoge's face.\nHis expression was both shocked and happy, extremely complicated. He did not finish his words, but sat dumbly where he was.\nThe others did not know what had happened, but they did not disturb him. They could only hold their breath as they waited for Lu Zhaoge’s reaction.\nLu Zhaoge let out a long breath, and said in an extremely stunned tone, \"What has happened? I can suddenly entirely sense the aura of that drop of blood, it's only that… why is it in such a place?” His expression was shocked to the extreme.\nAs the others heard this, they all became excited.\n\"Could it be that great person wants to see us?\" Liu Yuqing was madly eager. \"It must be so… commander, where is he? I'll invite him here right now…\" …… …… White horse tower.\nThe sun had just risen.\nSunlight shone into the quiet room, bringing with it a shred of warmth.\nYe Qingyu stood at the window, looking at the radiant outside world sparkling with light. There was a hesitant expression on his face as a drop of scarlet blood containing a vast energy swirled in his palm.\nThe young officer Ye Congyun with a pale white expression stood behind Ye Qingyu.\n\"You've really decided?\" Ye Qingyu turned around.\nYe Congyun nodded. \"Marquis, I've decided, I've decided to risk it, no matter what the consequences, I am willing to bear it.\" Ye Qingyu nodded his head. \"I've only heard some medical friends discuss such a method before. I've consulted the ancient texts, but it is without precedent. If it fails, your life most likely will…\" \"If I continue to live like so, my life is like death. Please proceed, Marquis,\" Ye Congyun said with determination.\nEarly in the morning, Ye Congyun had received Ye Qingyu's summons. Liu Zongyuan had personally invited the young officer to White Horse tower. Only after he had arrived, did Ye Congyun know that the Marquis had thought of a method to cure him of his weak blood constitution during the night.\nAlthough there was danger, but for Ye Congyun this was tantamount to having a flicker of light in complete darkness. Even if he risked his life, he was willing to try it.\n\"Good.\" Ye Qingyu nodded his head.\nWith a flick of his palm, the drop of blood flower out, arriving before Ye Congyun. It gradually seeped into his forehead between his brows."

以前的陆朝歌虽然并非是什么老帅哥之类的人物，但久居高位，武道大成，身上自有一股威严，令人不敢逼视，称得上是风华绝代，但是此时，这位幽燕军神却是身形枯槁，宛如朽木，气息微薄，皮肤紧紧贴在了骨头上，一身血肉仿佛是被什么东西吸干了，整个人宛如一尊僵尸一般。
陆朝歌正在催动元功，全力以赴地对抗体内的两股异力。
只是金色光华闪烁，缭绕在他身边金色光丝，和前些日子比起来，也越发地黯淡了下来。
真的很难让人相信，蒲团上这位行将就木的老人，就是昔日的幽燕战神。
过了足足一个时辰。
陆朝歌张口喷出一道血箭。
轰！ 淡黑色的血液落到地面的瞬间，木地板上就被融出一个大坑，一股火焰轰地冒了出来，散发着诡异邪-恶的气息。
看到这一幕，刘先生、柳随风和张三等人，都吓了一大跳。
“大哥，你没事吧？” 张三第一个冲过去，紧张万分地抱住陆朝歌。
其他人也都瞬间围了过去。
陆朝歌缓缓地睁开眼睛，长长出了一口气，这才微微点头，苦笑道：“无妨，只是这次……又失败了。” 之前他尝试祛除体内的异力，纯粹是想以无上元功直接将那骨匕的诅咒之力和黑暗火焰之力直接祛除，并不浪费自身的精血，但是最近这几天，即便是他不惜切割自身精血，想要将体内异力逼入精血之中排出体外，却都失败了。
对于他这种境界的顶级强者来说，每一滴精血，都无比宝贵，乃是多年修炼所得，切割精血，就等于是自降实力，类似于普通人的自残，但依旧没有什么效果。 陆朝歌深深地吸了几口气。
他才急促起伏着的胸膛，才渐渐地稳定了下来。
“我不管了，皇室那群蠢货难道是吃屎的吗？ 这都这么长时间了，竟然还没有将【黑月莲火】送来，老子等不了了，大哥，让我亲自去一趟帝都，就算是抢，我也要将【黑月莲火】抢来给你疗伤！” 张三一张脸因为愤怒而通红，忍不住狂吼道。
“我陪老三一起去。” 柳随风也是握紧了拳头。
在其他人的面前，他们是高高在上的大人物，宛如神话中的人儿高山仰止，但是在这个时候，这些大帅们却像是回到了年轻毛头小伙的时代一样，都变得狂躁了起来。
“我也去。” 彭一真咬牙切齿。
刘雨卿面色连连数变，想要说什么，但最终还是没有说出来。
“咳咳……”陆朝歌想要说什么，张嘴却是咳嗽了起来，嘴角又是一丝鲜血溢出，众人-大惊，都不敢再乱说，陆朝歌咳了几声，这才气息平稳，瞪了一眼张三，怒道：“闭嘴，你这些日子惹得乱子还不少吗，自己身上一屁股屎，还想要再去胡闹？” “唉，算了，你这些年，也不容易。” 陆朝歌叹了一口气，脸上闪过一丝淡淡的愧疚之色，道：“老三，你……还是放手吧，现在放手，还来得及。”
“关主，你现在的状态……”刘雨卿开口，打破了场面令人窒息一般的沉寂。
陆朝歌摇了摇头。
刘雨卿的脸上神色连变，像是下了很大的决心一样，咬着牙道：“大帅，让我去一趟帝都吧，我有办法，把【黑月莲火】带来。” 其他人顿时目光都落在了刘雨卿的身上。
陆朝歌看着这位画圣，笑了笑，道：“我知道你的意思，不过，现在就算是有【黑月莲火】，已经来不及了，妖神骨匕的诅咒之力，已经深入到我的四肢百骸，我勉强护住一丝心脉，【黑月莲火】也没有什么作用了。” “什么？”
一语既出，整个屋子里的大人物们顿时都勃然变色。 这一瞬间的感觉，仿佛是天要塌下来了一样。 “老三，你……”柳随风想要说什么。
陆朝歌摆了摆手，道：“由他去吧。” 房间里静的可怕。
愁云弥漫。 陆朝歌脸上浮现出一丝微笑，竟然有丝丝释然之色。
“人之寿元有事而穷，天地辽阔，你我终究不过是沧海槊天一叶小舟而已……就算是再精致结实的小舟，早忘都有被浪头打翻沉没的一天，真正能够挂起云帆济沧海，最终顺利到达彼岸的人，又能有几个呢？”
“可是大哥……”柳随风还未说话，竟然已经是泪流满面。
他的身后，也有微微的低泣之声。
堂堂各大主战营的统帅，一人之下万人之上，屠妖杀人不知道有多少，浑身煞气冲天，哪个不是一方豪强，此时却都眼泪长流。
男儿有泪不轻弹。
只是未到伤心时。
看着眼前这个他们平日里敬仰如神的男人，以这样一个交代后事的口吻说话，即便是钢铁之躯的男儿，也都快心碎了。
这一天，终究要来临吗？
“你的性格，和老三一样冲，这么多年了，我让你每日揉捏铁胆，圆融心性，看起来没有什么作用啊。” 陆朝歌笑着责备道。
十年之前，【幽燕人屠】柳随风突然随身携带两枚镀银铁胆，从不离身，时刻把玩，据说连睡觉都握在手中，没有人知道他这是在发什么疯，只有少数几个人才知道，那是因为陆朝歌在一次兄弟聚会上，提了一句，让他练铁胆圆形心性，柳随风就当真了。
刘雨卿呆呆地站在一边，也不知道在想些什么。
陆朝歌苦笑了一声：“那人实力之强，我难度其皮毛，终究不能寻得，就算是调动大军，掘地三尺，只怕也找不到，这等人物，既然避而不见，我们不可能找到他……咦？” 说道最后一句，陆朝歌的脸上，突然露出了极为惊讶的神色。
他的表情，似惊似喜，极为复杂，竟是话还没有说完，就呆在了原地。
其他人不知道发生了什么事情，不敢打扰，屏住呼吸看着陆朝歌。 半晌。
陆朝歌长长地出了一口气，极为惊讶地道：“怎么回事？ 我突然能够完全感应到那些精血的气息了，这是在……怎么会在这个地方？”
其他人一听，却是陡然振奋了起来。
“难道那位高人，想要见我们了？” 刘雨卿欣喜若狂，道：“一定是这样……大帅，到底是在哪里？ 白马塔中。
旭日初升。
阳光照射在净室里，带着淡淡的暖意。
叶青羽站在窗口，看着外面世界的炫耀，脸上浮现出一丝犹豫之色，一滴赤红如血的血滴，带着磅礴的力量波动，在他的掌心之中，滴溜溜地旋转。
面色苍白孱弱的小军官叶从云，站在叶青羽的身后。
“你真的决定了？” 叶青羽转过身来。
叶从云点点头，道：“侯爷，我决定了，愿意冒险一试，不管最终结果如何，我都愿意承担。” “如果一直这样活着，从云生不如死，请侯爷成全。”
今日一大早，叶从云就接到了叶青羽的召唤，柳宗元亲自将小军官送到白马塔，来了之后，叶从云才知道，原来是侯爷连夜之间，竟然已经找到了治疗他血虚之症的办法。
虽然有危险，但对于叶从云来说，不啻于茫茫黑暗之中，终于握到一丝光明，就算是拼上性命，也要一试。
“好。” 叶青羽点了点头。
他掌心一番，那滴鲜血漂浮出去，来到叶从云的身前，从他的眉心之间，缓缓地渗印了进去。

Although Lu Zhaoge was not anything like a handsome old man previously, but he had occupied such a powerful position for so long. Adding to this was the fact that he had already achieved great success in his martial cultivation; it caused him to radiate an air of authority and prestige. There was an aura of glory radiating around him, and he could definitely be called a person without peers. But right now, this deity of the [Youyan army] was completely withered up, like a dry branch. There was barely any aura of life from him at all, his skin tightly stretched onto his bones. It was as his if entire flesh body has been completely sucked dry by something, causing his entire person to become like a corpse.
Lu Zhaoge was currently using his utmost to activate his yuan power, resisting against the two strange and bizarre powers within his body.
It was only that the golden light previously emitted was currently flickering. Compared to the previous days, this golden light had already diminished significantly.
It was really hard for someone to believe that the old man sitting on that mat like a withered tree was previously the deity of the [Youyan army].
An entire two hours passed.
A jet of blood spat out from Lu Zhaoge's lips.
Boom! When the black-coloured blood landed on the floor, there was a great pit that was instantly made from the erosion. Flames flickered from it, emitting a peculiar aura of evil.
Seeing this scene, Mister Liu, Liu Siufeng and Zhang San were all utterly shocked.
"Big brother, are you okay?" Zhang San was the first to rush over, holding Lu Zhaoge with utmost care.
The other people also instantly encircled him.
Lu Zhaoge slowly opened his eyes, drawing in a long deep breath. He minutely nodded his head. With a bitter smile. "I'm fine, it's just that… I failed again." Previously, when he had attempted to erase the strange powers within his body, he purely thought he would use his ultimate yuan powers to directly eject and erase the curse from the bone dagger as well as the flames of darkness. There was not a need to waste his blood essence. But in these days, even if he used his blood essence to eject these strange powers from within his blood, it would not work.
For an extreme level expert like him, every drop of blood was incomparably precious. It was the result of many long years of cultivation. Cutting his own blood essence away was equal to him decreasing in power and was comparable to a normal person crippling themselves. But there still were not any effects.
His chests that was rapidly heaving gradually settled down.
"I don't care. Could it be that those retards of the Imperial family really eats shit? They still haven't sent the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] here after such a long time. I can't wait anymore. Big brother, let me personally go to the Capital. Even if I have to take it by force, I'll get the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] for you to recover from your injuries!" Zhang San's face was completely red with fury. He could not help but bellow in rage.
"I'll accompany him." Liu Siufeng also tightly clenched his fist.
In front of other people, they were powerful great figures, legendary people that were like high mountains. But right now, these commanders seemed to have reverted to what they were like in their youth, turning frantic and impatient.
"I'll also go." Peng Yizhen grinded his teeth.
Liu Yuqing's face faintly changed. He wanted to say something, but in the end did not utter a word.
"Cough, cough…" Lu Zhaoge wanted to speak, but all that came out was a dry cough. Another trickle of blood appeared on the corner of his lips. Everyone was greatly shocked and did not dare to say anything anymore. After several coughs, Lu Zhaoge finally recovered his composure, giving Zhang San a glare in anger. "Close your mouth. You've already caused enough trouble recently. You want to go out and cause even more chaos?" Zhang San's personality was conceited and prideful and would pay attention to no one normally. But right now, he was like a child who was being berated by an elder. He lowered his head with fear and respect: "Big brother, I…"” "Sigh, fine. It's also not easy being you in these years…" Lu Zhaoge let out a sigh, a faint sign of guilt flickering across his face. "Old San, you… could you let this go. If you let this go right now, there’s still time" There was a sentimental sign that flickered across Zhang San's eyes, but he shook his head in the end. "Big brother, I know you mean the best for me. But the things that I have decided on, I will never abandon halfway." The two other great commanders, Peng Yizhen and Liu Siufeng, had faces of dim sadness.
"Pass Lord, your current condition…" Liu Yuqing opened his mouth, breaking the suffocating silence in the room.
Lu Zhaoge shook his head.
Liu Yuqing's complexion changed, as if he had made a great decision. Biting his teeth, "Great Commander, let me go to the Imperial capital. I have a method, to obtain the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon]." Everyone’s gaze fell on Liu Yuqing.
Lu Zhaoge looked at the [Painting Saint], then smiled. "I know what you mean. But, even if I have the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] right now, it's already too late. The curse of the bone dagger of the demons has already deeply penetrated into my body. I managed to forcefully protect some veins in my heart only. Even the [Lotus Fire of the Black Moon] will not have any effect." "What?" "Brother, this…" "It can't be…" As these words were said, all the great figures in this room was utterly shaken.
Zhang San suddenly stood up, clenching his fists, biting his teeth. The expression on his face was unprecedentedly furious. Taking several steps backwards, there were strands of blood that appeared on his eyes, as if he wanted to killing someone. Taking another look at Lu Zhaoge, he suddenly kneeled down, bowing to him three times. Without saying a single word, he rose and left for the outside… "Old San, you…" Liu Siufeng wanted to say something.
Lu Zhaoge waved his hands. "Just let him go." The silence in the room was so quiet it was terrifying.
There was a faint smile on Lu Zhaoge's face. Unexpectedly, it seemed his entire body was at ease.
"A person's life naturally has its own end. The universe is so large, you and me are after all a little floating raft in the ocean… no matter how sturdy this little raft, don't forget that there is a day that the waves will overturn this raft. Just how many rafts are truly able to endure the waves of the great ocean and successfully reach the shore?" Lu Zhaoge said calmly without emotion.
"But brother…" Liu Siufeng had not even spoken, but tears had already covered his face.
There were sounds of sobbing able to be heard from behind him.
For the great and mighty Commander, above everyone, having killed an unknown number of demons with powerful auras, to have such tears flowing from down his face.
Tears do not fall easily down a man's face.
But this means the time to hurt has not yet come.
Seeing the man that they normally respected and revered as a god saying a speech like his last words, even a man made out of steel would have his heart broken.
Thinking back, when the seven had sworn oaths as brothers, they were like a raft in this warring times, withstanding against the currents. They laughed at the heroes all around the world, influencing the flow of the country, just how great and powerful they were, But even the most stunning and peerless people could not withstand against the merciless cuts of time… This day, would it really arrive? "A group of men, crying like women…" Lu Zhaoge rarely swore but he did so now. With a smile, "On the battle that year, I already hurt my foundation. For me to last this long is already a favour by the heavens. I have no regrets, but it's only that the matters are a bit chaotic within Youyan Pass right now…" "I'll go immediately. I'll gather the army and slaughter those useless trashes of the sects…" Liu Siufeng wiped away the tears on his face, his face completely red. He said these words with a ferocious flare.
"Your personality is exactly as brash as Zhang San. In these many years, I made you knead those metal balls every day to calm your temperament but it seems it has had no effect whatsoever." Lu Zhaoge reprimanded with a smile.
Ten years ago, the [Butcher of Youyan] Liu Siufeng had suddenly carried two steel balls that did not leave him at all, playing with it constantly. It was said that he even carried it in his sleep. No one knew just why he did this, only a rare minority knew that it was casual words that Lu Zhaoge had briefly mentioned in a meeting between the brothers, telling him to use steel balls to temper his personality that Liu Siufeng treated seriously.
Liu Yuqing stood dumbly by one side, his thoughts unknown.
After a short while, his eyes brightened. He quickly rushed to say, "Pass Lord, do you remember, there was someone that had imprisoned a drop of your blood. That person is extremely mysterious, so much so that even you aren't able to sense his existence. If we can find out where he is and bring him here, perhaps…" Lu Zhaoge let out a bitter laugh. "That person's strength is so strong that even I cannot find him. It is not an easy task to discover who he is. Even if I utilized the entire army and search foot by foot, it is likely that we cannot find him. For such a person to disappear, it is impossible for us to find him… eh?" As he said these last words, there was a stunned expression on Lu Zhaoge's face.
His expression was both shocked and happy, extremely complicated. He did not finish his words, but sat dumbly where he was.
The others did not know what had happened, but they did not disturb him. They could only hold their breath as they waited for Lu Zhaoge’s reaction.
Lu Zhaoge let out a long breath, and said in an extremely stunned tone, "What has happened? I can suddenly entirely sense the aura of that drop of blood, it's only that… why is it in such a place?” His expression was shocked to the extreme.
As the others heard this, they all became excited.
"Could it be that great person wants to see us?" Liu Yuqing was madly eager. "It must be so… commander, where is he? I'll invite him here right now…" …… …… White horse tower.
The sun had just risen.
Sunlight shone into the quiet room, bringing with it a shred of warmth.
Ye Qingyu stood at the window, looking at the radiant outside world sparkling with light. There was a hesitant expression on his face as a drop of scarlet blood containing a vast energy swirled in his palm.
The young officer Ye Congyun with a pale white expression stood behind Ye Qingyu.
"You've really decided?" Ye Qingyu turned around.
Ye Congyun nodded. "Marquis, I've decided, I've decided to risk it, no matter what the consequences, I am willing to bear it." Ye Qingyu nodded his head. "I've only heard some medical friends discuss such a method before. I've consulted the ancient texts, but it is without precedent. If it fails, your life most likely will…" "If I continue to live like so, my life is like death. Please proceed, Marquis," Ye Congyun said with determination.
Early in the morning, Ye Congyun had received Ye Qingyu's summons. Liu Zongyuan had personally invited the young officer to White Horse tower. Only after he had arrived, did Ye Congyun know that the Marquis had thought of a method to cure him of his weak blood constitution during the night.
Although there was danger, but for Ye Congyun this was tantamount to having a flicker of light in complete darkness. Even if he risked his life, he was willing to try it.
"Good." Ye Qingyu nodded his head.
With a flick of his palm, the drop of blood flower out, arriving before Ye Congyun. It gradually seeped into his forehead between his brows.

"value": "Chapter 98: The cruel truth Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio\nJust what kind of constitution was that?\nSu Yu's heart was beating fast, his mind utterly confused.\nWas it a Yellow Class constitution? Or could it be a Dark Class constitution? Was it a legendary Heaven or Earth Class constitution?\nAfter all, Su Yu's results were abnormal—the crystal ball was displaying two different results at the same time.\nThe red light flickered and a line of words was clearly reflected.\n\"Low Grade Abnormal Spirit constitution!\"\nLi Guang's pupils contracted, losing his voice to shock, \"Abnormal Spirit constitution?\"\nSu Yu was lost. It was not within the four classes of Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow.\nHe was uneasy, nervously asking, \"Holy King, is the Abnormal Spirit constitution suitable for cultivation?\"\nComing back to his senses, Li Guang observed Su Yu as if seeing a monster for the first time. The edges of his mouth curled up, \"It seems naturally suitable for cultivation!\"\nSu Yu finally eased his heavy heart! The grief in his heart was completely gone, replaced by a newfound excitement.\nThis would be his revival.\nXianer and Jingyu, wait for me! I, Su Yu, will also step on the Zhenlong continent!\nToning down the excitement in his heart, he pursed his lips, \"Holy King, what is an Abnormal Spirit?\"\n\"Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow constitutions cover the commonly seen constitutions, leaving out the rarer constitutions. These rare constitutions are all generally called Abnormal Spirits,\" Li Guang explained in shock, \"Some special people cannot absorb spirit energy and have worthless spirits, but within their bodies contain special items, like ingested treasures, or immortal personas… These treasures or personas can absorb spirit energy by themselves and help the owners cultivate it. These are Abnormal Spirits.\n\"You were tested to have a worthless spirit, which means you cannot absorb spirit energy by yourself. But a special item in your body can do that for you, and thus a second result appeared Abnormal Spirit.\"\nSu Yu understood. If his guess was correct, the red liquid from the Nine-Dragon Cauldron had fused with his blood. He could not absorb spirit energy, but the mysterious red liquid could.\nWhen Cao Xuan tested him, he had been labeled a Worthless Spirit.\nThat was because, after the test, Su Yu immediately had retracted his hand, leaving the crystal ball to display the words Abnormal Spirit.\nLi Guang continued, \"Abnormal Spirits are divided into high grade, medium grade, and low grade, based on their rate of absorption of spirit energy. But the lowest grade of Abnormal Spirits is equivalent to Medium Grade Yellow Class constitutions, the level Zhao Guang was at.\"\nThere was something Li Guang had left out. Abnormal Spirits were as rare as the Heaven and Earth classes and were often highly regarded.\nThis was due to the fact that most objects that could automatically absorb spirit energy were wondrous treasures, and thus their owners could have unbelievable power. They are unique.\nSu Yu's incredible level of perception might have something to do with the special item within him. He smiled in relief. Not to mention MediumGrade Yellow Class constitution, Su Yu was confident that he could compete at the mainland, even with a Low Grade Yellow constitution!\n\"The Garuda has left. Follow me and Xu Rong to the Zhenlong continent,\" Li Guang said before he lifted his head to look at Xu Rong.\nXu Rong coldly nodded, she agreed Su Yus' fate should not end here. He would ultimately step onto the Zhenlong continent.\nTwo days later, they hurried to the edge of the Fenghuang empire, facing the vast ocean.\nThe two Holy Kings combined their holy powers, awakening a great deep sea turtle from its slumber. This turtle was the same one they had taken here a hundred years ago.\n\"The journey is long, twenty days. I don't have many days to live, and will spend all my effort teaching you,\" Li Guang said. He sternly looked at Su Yu as they boarded the turtle.\nSu Yu thanked him in gratitude. The Holy King had a month to live, this would be his last chance to teach Su Yu.\nSitting down, Su Yu attentively listened to the Holy King.\n\"Your level of perception is out of the ordinary, and you have learned ice and thunder techniques. Your techniques are magnificent and I cannot critique them. All I can give you are pointers about the path your cultivation should follow.\n\"The realm of the Holy Kings is split into seven levels; the secret is to improve your physical limits. For example, why did the strongest weapon in your arsenal, the Purple Star Thunderbolt, only leave Xu Rong with minor wounds? That was because her physical body had already surpassed a mortal's.\n\"Thus, after you enter the realm of the Holy King, passing on to the next level is secondary. Absorbing spirit energy to improve your physical limits is the most important. Otherwise, you will never reach the realm of the Dragon.\"\n\"Within the Liuxian Faction, there are four techniques to boost your spirit energy. Of those, three are deity level techniques. A book with the name Thousand Thread Mantra is the remnant of a spirit level technique. With your level of perception, you should choose spirit level techniques to cultivate and boost your spirit energy. This would be greatly beneficial for your future push into the Realm of the Dragon.\"\nSu Yu creased his brows slightly, \"Are there no complete spirit level techniques?\"\nLi Guang laughed, \"You think spirit level techniques are like cabbages on the street? Mortal level techniques are split into basic, medium, advanced, saint, and deity levels. Spirit level techniques can also be divided. Spirit level techniques are split into legacy, immortal, and legendary levels.\n\"In the Liuxian Faction, Holy Kings can only come into contact with fractions of legacy level techniques. Your Purple Star Thunderbolt is a fragment of a legacy level technique. Only powerful warriors within the realm of the Dragon can come into contact with the entire legacy level technique.\"\nSu Yu was surprised. Was a complete legacy level technique so difficult to obtain?\n\"What about immortal level and legendary level techniques?\" Su Yu asked.\nLi Guang thought for a moment before saying, \"It is rumored that the master of the faction has a fragment of an immortal level technique. As for legendary level techniques, they are but the stuff of legends.\n\"Thus, it would be good for you to give Thousand Thread Mantra a read. Every person who had broken through to the Realm of the Dragon had read the Thousand Thread Mantra.\n\"Lastly, your Holy Decree is very special.\" Li Guang looked almost confused, \"There's a unique rhythm to your Holy Decree, never before seen, even in the Holy Decrees of Seventh Level Holy Kings. I hope you can continue developing your Holy Decree, and perhaps one day you could achieve a breakthrough.\"\nHoly Decree? Su Yu's Holy Decree was born from the elder in the wall painting. Could the Holy Decree pictured in that mural be extremely special?\nIn the next twenty days, Su Yu achieved much progress with the help of the Holy King.\nAfter a good two weeks, the Zhenlong continent's shore came into view like a great monster rising from the waves.\nSu Yu awoke from his state of cultivation, his eyes flickering with excitement.\nThe thirteen saint grade elixirs and the valuable divine grade elixir given to him by Xianer had been fully internalized with the help of Li Guang's spirit energy.\nSu Yu's cultivation level had risen from Level Eight Upper Tier to Level Nine Upper Tier!\nThe divine grade elixir had unbelievable effects. Under the speedup of time, Su Yu had attained considerable progress with Purple Star Thunderbolt and his Holy Decree.\nEquivalent to eleven years of learning, he had finally touched the border of Stage One Top Class for Purple Star Thunderbolt. A few more days of practice and he may breakthrough.\nWithout them, Su Yu might still be a student in the martial arts training institute.\n\"Xu Rong, please, help me bring Xi Ruolan a message. Before I return to the faction, I wish to meet with her privately.\" Li Guang would not immediately return to the faction after reaching the shore. Instead, he wanted to see Xi Ruolan.\nHe had less than ten days left to live, he couldn't wait for the faction to investigate. He wanted to meet Xi Ruolan to tell her the whole truth.\nXu Rong nodded, \"Alright.\"\nTheir meeting point would be where they currently stood, as it was close to Li Guang's family.\nHis family resided at the top of the mountain range. They were a family close to the Liuxian faction, famous for their levels of cultivation. Returning from Shenyue Island after a hundred years, Li Guang naturally had to visit his family before he died.\n\"Su Yu, before I die, I will definitely arrange a path for you in the faction.\" Li Guang had a charitable smile.\nAfter spending two weeks with Su Yu, he had grown fond of Su Yu's wit and personality.\nIt caused regret to stir in his heart.

第99章
到底会是什么体质？
苏羽心脏咚咚狂跳，脑海混乱一片。
是黄级体质吗？ 或者玄级体质……甚至，会是传说之中的天级和地级体质？
毕竟苏羽检测，迥异常人，同时出现两次结果。
红光闪烁，一行六字真言，清晰映射。
“下等异灵体质！”
李广瞳孔一缩，惊愕失声：“异灵体质？”
苏羽亦茫然，不是天地玄黄四个等级之中的任何一个。
心中不由忐忑，紧张询问：“圣王，异灵体质，能否修炼？”
回过神，李广上下打量苏羽，宛若打量一头小怪物，闻言，嘴角一抽：“既然有灵体二字，自然可以修炼！”
苏羽一颗悬着的心，终于重重放下！ 内心悲鸣，一扫而空，却而代之是意气风华。
此次意外，于他而言，是一次人生转折，是一次新生。
仙儿、静雨，你们等我！ 我苏羽，亦要踏上真龙大陆！
收敛内心激昂澎湃，苏羽好奇询问：“圣王，何为异灵体？”
李广震撼解释：“天地玄黄等级体系，涵盖常见体质，稀少体质则排除在外，统称异灵体。” “一些特殊人，他们本身不能吸收灵气，乃是废灵体，但是体内拥有某些特殊之物，比如吃过天材地宝，体内伴生神兵……天才地宝和神兵，自行吸收灵气，帮助主人修炼，这就是异灵体。”
“你检测出废灵体，这说明你本身无法吸收灵气，但体内有特殊之物可以吸收灵气，因此，检测出现第二个结果，异灵体。”
苏羽释然，所料不错，应该是九龙神鼎内的红色液体，融入血脉之中。 他不能吸收灵气，红色神秘液体却能够。
曹轩检测时，仅显示废灵体。
那是因为，检测完毕之后，苏羽很快收回了手，水晶球未曾来得及将“异灵体”显现出来。
李广继而道：“异灵体有上等、中等、下等之分，乃是以吸收灵气速度划分，但是，最下等的异灵体，堪比中等黄级体质，也就是赵光层次。”
还有一句话，李广未曾说，异灵体之稀少，堪比天级和地级，乃是传说中的灵体，往往会受到重视。
因为，能自动吸收灵气的体内异物，多半是神奇之物，因此主人可能会拥有不可思议能力，比常人更为奇特。
苏羽悟性之超绝，恐怕就与他体内异物相关。 苏羽欣慰而笑，莫说中等黄级体质，就是下等黄级体质，苏羽也有信心，与大陆天才争锋！
“迦楼罗已走，你随老夫和徐蓉，一起前往真龙大陆吧。” 李广道，继而抬眸望向徐蓉。
徐蓉冷淡点头，暗道苏羽命不该绝，真龙大陆，终究有他踏上之日。
两日后，一行人赶往凤凰帝国边缘，面临无边沧海。
两位圣王，凝聚圣王之力，唤醒一头沉睡海底巨龟，乃是他们二人百年前乘坐而来。
“路途遥远，需要二十日，老夫时日无多，全力指点你修炼。” 上巨龟之后，李广凝视苏羽，苍凉一笑。
苏羽感激而拜，圣王只剩下一月寿命，也许，这是他一生中，最后指点他。
席地而坐，苏羽悉心受教。
“你悟性超绝，兼修冰雷属性，功法一道叹为观止，我并无资格指点你，唯一能指点你的是修炼一途。”
“圣王境界分为七阶，乃是凡人向更高层次蜕变过程，重在改善体质，提升生理极限。” “比如，你紫星神雷，威力绝强一击，为何只对徐蓉轻伤？
“因此，当你跨入圣王之后，境界突破是次要，吸收灵气，提升生理极限才是重中之重，否则永生难触摸到化龙境界。”
李广道出宝贵经验，苏羽铭记于心。 “流仙宗内，有四本增进灵气的功法，其中三本神等功法，一本名为《千丝决》的残缺灵级功法，以你悟性，择取灵级功法修炼，增强灵气，日后突破化龙境界，难度将更小。”
苏羽略略皱眉：“难道没有完整灵级功法吗？”
“凡级功法，分为下等、中等、上等、圣等和神等。” “灵级功法也有划分，分为传承级、真灵级和神话级。”
“流仙宗内，圣王只能接触传承残卷，比如你的《紫星神雷》，就是传承级别的残卷，化龙境界以上强者，为宗门立下赫赫大功，才有资格接触完整传承功法。”
苏羽暗暗吃惊，完整的传承功法，竟如此难得吗？
“那真灵功法和神话功法呢？” 苏羽询问。
李广想了想道：“真灵功法，本宗掌教，据说有一部残卷，至于神话功法，那便只存在于世界神话之中。”
“所以，《千丝决》最好能借阅一观，但凡宗门内突破化龙强者，均参悟过《千丝决》。”
“最后，你的圣意很特别。” 李广眉宇中有着一缕疑惑：“其中有一股独特韵律，即便是圣王七阶强者的圣意，也不曾具备，希望你能继续参悟，或许终有一天，有所突破。”
苏羽圣意，脱胎于画境之中的老者。 莫非，那位老者圣意极为特别？
接下来二十天，在他帮助下，苏羽进展一日千里。
大半月后，真龙大陆沿岸出现，恍若洪荒巨兽，截断无边沧海，黑压压一片。
苏羽从入定之中醒来，眼眸内，闪烁明亮光彩。
仙儿给予的十三颗圣品以及一颗珍贵神品融灵宝丹，在李广灵气梳理之下，全数消化。
神品融灵宝丹，效果之恐怖，令人咂舌。
而在时间加速两百倍情况下，苏羽对《紫星神雷》和圣意，均有极大进展。
相当于整整十一年的参悟，终于触摸到《紫星神雷》第一层大圆满边缘，只要再假以时日，便可成功突破大圆满。
若无他们，此时苏羽或许还是武宗学府的学员。
“徐蓉，可否代我向若兰传讯，回宗门之前，想单独见她。” 上岸之后，李广并未立刻回宗门，而是请求道。
他寿命只剩下十日不到，无法等到宗门查明冤案之日。
徐蓉点头：“可以。”
相约地点，就在此处。 因为，这里距离李广的家族，并不遥远。
他的家族，处在一处山峦之上，乃是流仙宗附近，名气颇大的修炼家族。 从神月岛归来，百年之后，临终之前，他自然要回家族一看。
“苏羽，我坐化前，必定给你安排好后路。” 李广慈爱道。
相处大半月，他深深喜爱苏羽的聪慧与人情练达。
内心一度叹息，心有遗憾。 圣徒乃是圣王记名弟子，可苏羽，从始至终，未曾喊过他一声师尊。
究其原因，相处太短，李广自知给予苏羽太少，难以启齿以师尊自居。 两日后。
李广负手而立，仰望苍茫大海，目含失落。
按照路程，两日内，若兰可以赶来。
可，她终究未曾前来。
“若兰……终究还是恨我么？” 李广叹息，思念百年的女子，在他临终之际，却连一个解释机会都不给。 这，是他此生最大遗憾！
蓦然间，苏羽紫色眼瞳扫视天边，平静道：“师尊等的人，或许来了。”
圣王顺着苏羽目光看去，许久才看清一个人影。
此时的苏羽，九龙神鼎变化，附带眼瞳视力大涨。 以往只能看清五里之外，现在却能看清二十里之外。
此刻，一位四十女子，御风飞来。
身着飘然彩衣，高贵而典雅，容貌温婉柔情，贤惠端庄。
随着飘身落定，淡淡香风，轻袭而来。
“若……兰……”李广颤声，老躯颤动。
一双苍老眼眸，再难移开视线。
眼前女子，正是期盼了百年的爱人，若兰！
她圣王七阶，生理极限超脱凡人，因此年过一百，还是四十模样。
而李广，圣王二阶，生理极限，略强凡人而已，已然皓首苍颜，垂垂老矣。
相比较于李广的失神，若兰神色平静，柔和眼眸不起波澜。 “李广，你老了。”
若兰清冷之音，淡漠而无感情。
拒人千里之外的陌生，将李广失神中拉回。
苍颜蔓延苦涩，时过百年，情谊早散，早在预料当中。
“若兰，请你来，只是向你解释，当年之事，绝非我所为！
若兰淡淡望来，柔和眼眸，环绕淡淡冷意，轻描淡写回应：“恩，我知道玷污我者，不是你，而是韩志。”
李广如遭雷击，怔然当场：“你……你知道不是我而是韩志？ 那当年，为何不替我洗刷冤屈？
若兰沉默片刻，淡淡道：“因为……韩志事后答应，纳我为妾，给我足够修炼资源，条件就是……污蔑你！”
李广脑海轰鸣！
他一度认为，若兰被人蒙骗，误以为他是玷污者。
可……真相竟是，若兰配合韩志，将其诬陷！
他坚守百年，就是为了给若兰证明，他李广是清白。
可百年坚守，竟得到一个如此残酷真相！
“若兰，你是不是被韩志逼迫，才不得已？” 李广无法接受，曾经两情相悦的恋人，他念念不忘百年的女人，竟是害他的元凶！
若兰漠然，脸孔越发冷淡。 苏羽搀扶踉跄圣王，眼眸含着冷意：“一个为自己前程背叛感情的自私女人而已，圣王，无须作践自己！”
那么，若兰今日前来，是为了……杀他！
她圣王七阶，李广圣王二阶，实力差距，宛若云泥之别！
在她面前，李广还手之力都无！
“李广，你老死在神月岛该有多好？ 为何非逼我出手？”
若兰眼眸冷意环绕，风轻云淡抬起手指。
肃杀之意，凝聚指尖。 刹那间，苏羽背脊发凉，浑身僵直！
一指笼罩下，竟难以动弹！

Chapter 98: The cruel truth Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Just what kind of constitution was that?
Su Yu's heart was beating fast, his mind utterly confused.
Was it a Yellow Class constitution? Or could it be a Dark Class constitution? Was it a legendary Heaven or Earth Class constitution?
After all, Su Yu's results were abnormal—the crystal ball was displaying two different results at the same time.
The red light flickered and a line of words was clearly reflected.
"Low Grade Abnormal Spirit constitution!"
Li Guang's pupils contracted, losing his voice to shock, "Abnormal Spirit constitution?"
Su Yu was lost. It was not within the four classes of Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow.
He was uneasy, nervously asking, "Holy King, is the Abnormal Spirit constitution suitable for cultivation?"
Coming back to his senses, Li Guang observed Su Yu as if seeing a monster for the first time. The edges of his mouth curled up, "It seems naturally suitable for cultivation!"
Su Yu finally eased his heavy heart! The grief in his heart was completely gone, replaced by a newfound excitement.
This would be his revival.
Xianer and Jingyu, wait for me! I, Su Yu, will also step on the Zhenlong continent!
Toning down the excitement in his heart, he pursed his lips, "Holy King, what is an Abnormal Spirit?"
"Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow constitutions cover the commonly seen constitutions, leaving out the rarer constitutions. These rare constitutions are all generally called Abnormal Spirits," Li Guang explained in shock, "Some special people cannot absorb spirit energy and have worthless spirits, but within their bodies contain special items, like ingested treasures, or immortal personas… These treasures or personas can absorb spirit energy by themselves and help the owners cultivate it. These are Abnormal Spirits.
"You were tested to have a worthless spirit, which means you cannot absorb spirit energy by yourself. But a special item in your body can do that for you, and thus a second result appeared Abnormal Spirit."
Su Yu understood. If his guess was correct, the red liquid from the Nine-Dragon Cauldron had fused with his blood. He could not absorb spirit energy, but the mysterious red liquid could.
When Cao Xuan tested him, he had been labeled a Worthless Spirit.
That was because, after the test, Su Yu immediately had retracted his hand, leaving the crystal ball to display the words Abnormal Spirit.
Li Guang continued, "Abnormal Spirits are divided into high grade, medium grade, and low grade, based on their rate of absorption of spirit energy. But the lowest grade of Abnormal Spirits is equivalent to Medium Grade Yellow Class constitutions, the level Zhao Guang was at."
There was something Li Guang had left out. Abnormal Spirits were as rare as the Heaven and Earth classes and were often highly regarded.
This was due to the fact that most objects that could automatically absorb spirit energy were wondrous treasures, and thus their owners could have unbelievable power. They are unique.
Su Yu's incredible level of perception might have something to do with the special item within him. He smiled in relief. Not to mention MediumGrade Yellow Class constitution, Su Yu was confident that he could compete at the mainland, even with a Low Grade Yellow constitution!
"The Garuda has left. Follow me and Xu Rong to the Zhenlong continent," Li Guang said before he lifted his head to look at Xu Rong.
Xu Rong coldly nodded, she agreed Su Yus' fate should not end here. He would ultimately step onto the Zhenlong continent.
Two days later, they hurried to the edge of the Fenghuang empire, facing the vast ocean.
The two Holy Kings combined their holy powers, awakening a great deep sea turtle from its slumber. This turtle was the same one they had taken here a hundred years ago.
"The journey is long, twenty days. I don't have many days to live, and will spend all my effort teaching you," Li Guang said. He sternly looked at Su Yu as they boarded the turtle.
Su Yu thanked him in gratitude. The Holy King had a month to live, this would be his last chance to teach Su Yu.
Sitting down, Su Yu attentively listened to the Holy King.
"Your level of perception is out of the ordinary, and you have learned ice and thunder techniques. Your techniques are magnificent and I cannot critique them. All I can give you are pointers about the path your cultivation should follow.
"The realm of the Holy Kings is split into seven levels; the secret is to improve your physical limits. For example, why did the strongest weapon in your arsenal, the Purple Star Thunderbolt, only leave Xu Rong with minor wounds? That was because her physical body had already surpassed a mortal's.
"Thus, after you enter the realm of the Holy King, passing on to the next level is secondary. Absorbing spirit energy to improve your physical limits is the most important. Otherwise, you will never reach the realm of the Dragon."
"Within the Liuxian Faction, there are four techniques to boost your spirit energy. Of those, three are deity level techniques. A book with the name Thousand Thread Mantra is the remnant of a spirit level technique. With your level of perception, you should choose spirit level techniques to cultivate and boost your spirit energy. This would be greatly beneficial for your future push into the Realm of the Dragon."
Su Yu creased his brows slightly, "Are there no complete spirit level techniques?"
Li Guang laughed, "You think spirit level techniques are like cabbages on the street? Mortal level techniques are split into basic, medium, advanced, saint, and deity levels. Spirit level techniques can also be divided. Spirit level techniques are split into legacy, immortal, and legendary levels.
"In the Liuxian Faction, Holy Kings can only come into contact with fractions of legacy level techniques. Your Purple Star Thunderbolt is a fragment of a legacy level technique. Only powerful warriors within the realm of the Dragon can come into contact with the entire legacy level technique."
Su Yu was surprised. Was a complete legacy level technique so difficult to obtain?
"What about immortal level and legendary level techniques?" Su Yu asked.
Li Guang thought for a moment before saying, "It is rumored that the master of the faction has a fragment of an immortal level technique. As for legendary level techniques, they are but the stuff of legends.
"Thus, it would be good for you to give Thousand Thread Mantra a read. Every person who had broken through to the Realm of the Dragon had read the Thousand Thread Mantra.
"Lastly, your Holy Decree is very special." Li Guang looked almost confused, "There's a unique rhythm to your Holy Decree, never before seen, even in the Holy Decrees of Seventh Level Holy Kings. I hope you can continue developing your Holy Decree, and perhaps one day you could achieve a breakthrough."
Holy Decree? Su Yu's Holy Decree was born from the elder in the wall painting. Could the Holy Decree pictured in that mural be extremely special?
In the next twenty days, Su Yu achieved much progress with the help of the Holy King.
After a good two weeks, the Zhenlong continent's shore came into view like a great monster rising from the waves.
Su Yu awoke from his state of cultivation, his eyes flickering with excitement.
The thirteen saint grade elixirs and the valuable divine grade elixir given to him by Xianer had been fully internalized with the help of Li Guang's spirit energy.
Su Yu's cultivation level had risen from Level Eight Upper Tier to Level Nine Upper Tier!
The divine grade elixir had unbelievable effects. Under the speedup of time, Su Yu had attained considerable progress with Purple Star Thunderbolt and his Holy Decree.
Equivalent to eleven years of learning, he had finally touched the border of Stage One Top Class for Purple Star Thunderbolt. A few more days of practice and he may breakthrough.
Without them, Su Yu might still be a student in the martial arts training institute.
"Xu Rong, please, help me bring Xi Ruolan a message. Before I return to the faction, I wish to meet with her privately." Li Guang would not immediately return to the faction after reaching the shore. Instead, he wanted to see Xi Ruolan.
He had less than ten days left to live, he couldn't wait for the faction to investigate. He wanted to meet Xi Ruolan to tell her the whole truth.
Xu Rong nodded, "Alright."
Their meeting point would be where they currently stood, as it was close to Li Guang's family.
His family resided at the top of the mountain range. They were a family close to the Liuxian faction, famous for their levels of cultivation. Returning from Shenyue Island after a hundred years, Li Guang naturally had to visit his family before he died.
"Su Yu, before I die, I will definitely arrange a path for you in the faction." Li Guang had a charitable smile.
After spending two weeks with Su Yu, he had grown fond of Su Yu's wit and personality.
It caused regret to stir in his heart. All the other Holy Disciples were his personal disciples, but Su Yu, from the start until now, had never called him his teacher.
Li Guang had not spent much time with Su Yu and had taught him far too little, and he had felt that it was inappropriate for Su Yu to call him his teacher...
Li Guang stood with his hands behind his back, looking toward the vast ocean with a little disappointment.
According to the plan, Xi Ruolan could reach the meeting place within two days.
But, she had not come.
"Xi Ruolan… Does she still hate me?" Li Guang sighed. The person he had loved for a hundred years would not even give him the chance to explain himself on his deathbed. This was his life's greatest regret.
Su Yu's purple eyes scanned the horizon, "The person you are waiting for may have finally come."
The Holy King looked in the direction Su Yu was facing. After a while, he clearly saw a human figure.
Su Yu's vision, after the transformation of the Nine-Dragon Cauldron, had improved tremendously. In the past, he could only see up to five miles. Now he could see clearly up to twenty miles away.
At this moment, a woman flew over.
She was dressed in a colorful robe, noble and elegant. Her appearance was gentle and prudent.
As she landed, a sweet fragrance spread into the surroundings.
"Ruo… Lan…" Li Guang's voice was shaking, his old frame trembling.
He could not pull his eyes away from her.
The woman before him was the lover he had pined for over a hundred years, Xi Ruolan!
She was a Seventh Level Holy King, her biological limits far superior to a mortal's. Thus, she only looked forty even after a hundred years had passed.
Li Guang was a Second Level Holy King, his biological limits were only a little above a mortal's and so he was old and haggard.
Compared to Li Guang, Xi Ruolan was calm. Her eyes showed no emotion.
"Li Guang, you have become old," Xi Ruolan's cold tone was unfeeling.
The strang tone of voice brought Li Guang back to his senses.
His face was laced with bitterness. After a hundred years, any love or relationship they once had was gone.
"Xi Ruolan, I invited you here to explain that the incident years ago was not caused by me! It was Han Zhi! You… do not be deceived by him! Please, leave him as soon as possible!" Li Guang recollected himself, his voice high-pitched with anxiety, "Now i have obtained the Liuxian Token. I will ask the master to investigate the matter thoroughly and our names will be cleared."
Xi Ruolan calmly looked over, her gentle eyes encircled with a cold glow. "Yes, I know Han Zhi violated me, not you," She said, her face unfeeling and distant.
Li Guang froze as if he had been struck by lightning. "You… you knew it was Han Zhi and not me? Then why did you never say so? Why would you marry Han Zhi!?"
Xi Ruolan was silent for a moment, "Because… after Han Zhi… He said it would never happen again, that he would take me as his woman and help me cultivate my skills… He just, he made me promise … to blame it on you," she murmured.
Li Guang's brain ached!
He had once thought Xi Ruolan had been lied to and that she thought he was the violator.
But… the truth was that Xi Ruolan had framed him, together with Han Zhi! Rumble—
He had waited for a hundred years—just to prove to Xi Ruolan that he, Li Guang, was innocent.
But after waiting for a hundred years, he now learned the cruel truth!
"Xi Ruolan, were you forced by Han Zhi?" Li Guang could not accept it. He would not believe his once-love, the light that had kept him going for so long, was involved in the defamation of his name.
Su Yu supported the Holy King, his eyes harboring a merciless aura, "What a selfish woman, betraying her love for her future. Holy King, you do not need to demean yourself! You should be more concerned about why she's finally here to see you!"
Xi Ruolan's reason for coming today was to… kill him!
She was a Seventh Level Holy King, Li Guang was only a Second Level Holy King. The difference in ability was heaven and Earth!
She could exterminate them with a flick of her finger!
"Li Guang, how great would it have been if you had died of old age at Shenyue Island? Why must you force my hand?" Xi Ruolan calmly lifted a finger.
Her killing intent materialized on the tips of her fingers.
At that moment, Su Yu felt a tingle in his spine. His body went ramrod straight!
With just a finger, he was paralyzed.

He asked “Grandpa, this is…..money?”\nThe old man nodded “This is good and sliver rings, coins used by mortals, there isn’t any copper rings here, ten copper rings can be exchanged for one silver ring and ten sliver rings can be exchanged for a gold ring, en, this is money used by mortals, we use another types of money, practitioners have their own specialized money.\nXinFeng had been living in Tiger Cliff Castle until now, he thought that there want any coins used in this world and that transitions are done by exchanging items for other items. Picking up a gold ring, he noticed that the creation of the golden ring was very exquisite, the size similar to the coins from his past world, in the middle of it was a circular hole, on it wasn’t any words or words, the ring was made of gold, similarly to the sliver Ring.\nXinyao counted for a while and said “There is about 200 gold rings and roughly a hundred sliver ring, what pretty money.”\n(Puttty: her interests now includes money along with food.)\nXinFeng said “Yaoyao, you keep it.” Xinyao immediately tied the pouch to her waist. At home, she had the position of the housewife, all their belongings managed by her.\nThe old man said “Here I have some coins used by the practitioners, it’s worth much more than these.”\nOn Xinyao’s face appeared weariness, seeing that, XinFeng said “Sis, you go sleep, later brother will bring you out to eat.”\nXinyao nodded “Okay, I’m also sleepy.” She never needed XinFeng to worry about her, her sensibleness making people’s hearts painful.\nWaiting after Xinyao left to sleep on the heatable brick bed, XinFeng and the old man sat down. XinFeng lazily stretched and laughed “Grandpa, how long are we going to stay here?”\nThe old man said “When the coldest days of the winter are over, at that time let’s find a big merchant to tag along with.”\nXinFeng calculated for a while and realized that they would stay for a few months at least in Hong tong “Okay, using this chance we can get more familiar with the city, hehe, me and little sis has been staying in Tiger a Cliff Castle for so long and know nothing, learning here is also good.”\nThe old man nodded his head slightly, them living in Tiger Cliff Castle was like frogs living I’m a well, not beneficial to the children’s growth, this was his reason for them to leave as soon as possible once he recovered, he did not want his grandchildren to become bumpkins.\nXinFeng celebrated silently that he had a powerful grandpa, his future would not be filled with hardships, at first living in Tiger Cliff Castle had made him miserable, if there wasn’t Grandpa and Little sis that gave him a reason to life on and pass through the hardest days, now that the hardships were over, it seems that this world isn’t as behind as he thought.\nThe sky gradually darkened, the servants knocked and opened the door, two of them were carrying food, placing down dish by dish on the table, another servant carried a dedicate bamboo basket.\n8 dishes 1 soup along with a basket of steamed flour bread.\nExquisite stir-fried vegetables, fresh vegetables and a variety of roasted meat, in this season vegetable were already gone, not expecting to actually see such fresh vegetables, this let XinFeng feel extremely shocked, he went in to wake Xinyao and brought the dazed Xinyao into the living room.\nXinyao immediately woke up completely by the smell of food, pouncing onto the side of the table she said surprised “This is for us to eat?”\nThe old man lovingly petted her head “Eat, eat.”\nWithout caring about her image, she grabbed the food with her hands, eating with hands was very normal, XinFeng passed her a spoon and a small knife, taking chopsticks for himself, he also began to eat.\nThe old man ate slowly, but XinFeng and Xinyao the pair of siblings ate uglily, the both of them shoving food down their throats quickly. With only a mouth full of vegetables had already conquered her, causing her to say lovingly “Delicious, delicious……really very delicious.”\nLuckily the vegetables were enough, all of them in small amounts along with Snow White huge flour buns, which was something only the rich can enjoy while normal people cannot, this was something big merchants brought from the outside, here, meat was the cheapest, fresh vegetables expensive and the most priciest was the food made with white flour.\nThe three of them finishing all the food with only a moment’s effort, Xinyao rubbed her small stomach, her expression strange, there was both comfortableness and sadness, she had eaten too much.\nXinFeng laughed as he petted her small head “Ate too much eh, stand up and exercise for a bit.” This little lady had at least drunk half of a big pot of soup.\nXinYao muttered “Brother, eating too much………is also uncomfortable….aiyo, I…..I” she moved her body with difficulty, turning around in the living room.\nThe old man and XinFeng could not help but laugh, the sight of Xinyao grabbing her stomach in pain was rather funny.\nXinyao shouted “You’re not allowed to laugh at me! It’s their fault to cook such tasty food…..aiyo, aiyo……I’m stuffed to death!” ……\nThe next day, Xi Quan brought Hong Tong to visit.\nXi Quan was already very old, as a man who condensed 3 real ring body and reached the level of a Real Lun Yin master, he can live for about 300-350 years, he was already 300 plus in age and was unable to break through, which is why his appearance had became to turn old.\nThe meeting between the old man and Xi Quan, the first sentence had already made him speechless “Old brother, our last meeting…you have 3 real ring bodies, after so many years, how are you still stuck there, are you addicted to being a real Lun Ying master? If you don’t break through soon……then it would spell trouble for you.”\nAfter a while, Xi Qian laughed bitterly “Old brother, wanting to break through, how is it so easy!”\nPractitioners are also fighters against time, if they cannot breakthrough in time, then they would have to wait for death, for example the old man Lei Bao, due to his injury, he could only hide in a village to wait for death as he groomed the younger generation, if it wasn’t for his luck then he would probably never appear again, dying silently in Tiger Cliff Castle.\nHong Chen and Wen Yan sat obediently at the side actually Hong Chen was also facing this problem, he was also unable to breakthrough his current realm, his remaining time was also not long.\nThe old man said “You stayed in Hong Tong for too long, your vigor behind eagerness to make progress gone.”\nXi Quan nodded admitting “Yeah, my life here is too comfortable, there isn’t any danger, hehe, I plan to wait a few years, if there isn’t any sudden breakthroughs, I will leave Hong Tong and see if I have any affinity f breaking through, if it still doesn’t happen then I’ll just die outside.”\nThe old man replied “En, it depends on your luck then.”\nQi Quan said “Old Brother, after all these years, I never knew you were secretly practice under the area of hong tong’s influence, you should have told me.”\nThe old man had a bitter smile in his mind and said shaking his head “It’s better if you didn’t know, if you did then even if you stayed in Hong Tong you would not feel well.”\nXi Qian said “Brother, has your injury recovered entirely?”\nThe old man said blandly “En, it’s okay now, my luck is good, I even broke through.”\nA aghast expression appeared on Xi Quan’s face “Sudden breakthrough? My god…..that’s too scary! Old brother, you achieved 6 real ring bodies?”\nThe old man said “No matter the amount of real ring bodies, the most important is that I have recovered entirely, hey! I believe…..a few friends, cannot sleep soundly at night anymore, haha!” In his voice was a strong resentment and vengeance.\nHong Chen and Wen yan both stiffened, six real ring bodies what it meant was being called a real Yin master, that was the real terrifying expert, they never expected that in their lives, they would actually be able to see a real Yin master, the two of their expressions becoming a respectful one, if a real Yin master is angered, even if all the experts of Hong Tong gathered, they still wouldn’t have a chance of winning.\nXi Quan said “We are all small forces at the sidelines, old brother, you are a god, hoho.”\nThe old man said “Rubbish! If I was a god, then I wouldn’t be injured heavily by another people and have to hide in a place where even a rabbit won’t shit at.”\nXi Quan smiled bitterly “Old brother, is these your grandson and granddaughter?”\nXinyao and XinFeng walked in from and gave their respects “Seen the senior.”\nXi Quan said “No need to call Senior, call me grandpa Xi.”\nXinFeng and Xinyao both immediately called Xi grandpa, Xi Quan smiled and gave the both of them meeting gifts, each of them receiving a bag of gold rings, XinFeng did not expect such a custom here, but eventually he passed the bag to Xinyao.\nXinyao this little house lady happily received the gift, she now knew that Gold rings and sliver rings can be exchanged for food and other stuff, such a intresting thing, so course she would happily receive it.\nXi Quan’s insight was much better than Hong chen’s, at first he did not notice but after seeing the two of them standing in front did he get a closer look, revealing a shocked expression “Yi, old bother, your grandchildren aren’t simple, ah, both of them are single attributed! Good man, a Lv Lun attribute! Lightning Lun attribute!”\n(Puttty: Yi=Hmm?)\nThe old man smiled gleefully, what matters the most to him was his grandchildren, if someone praised them, then he would gladly receive the praise.\nXi Quan sighed and after a while, he spoke “Such a pity, such a pity, old brother is planning to teach them himself.”\nThe old man nodded “That’s right, you can stop thinking about it.”\nQi Xuan said “Nevermind, let’s not talk about this, old brother, have you visited Xi Rong land?”\nThe old man replied “I’ve heard about it, but never visited.”\nXi Quan said “Xi Rong land, they found a Lunchang space of the ancient people, according to their calculation, this Lun pChang space is about 20 thousand year old.”\nThe old man abruptly stood up “What!”"

第十八章
雷暴老人不在意道：“住在这里就很好了。”
杜洪辰拿出一个皮袋子，说道：“这里有一些金环和银环，给孩子买东西用。”
老人点头道：“好。”
杜洪辰这才带着文衍告辞出去，他要赶到大长老那里去汇报。
等到杜洪辰师徒离开，雷星峰好奇的打开皮袋子，倾倒下来，一堆金银落在桌上。 他问道：“阿爷，这是……钱？”
老人点头道：“这是金环和银环，是凡人通用钱币，这里没有铜环，十个铜环，可以换一个银环，十个银环，换一个金环，嗯，这是凡人用的钱，我们用的不一样，修炼者有专门的钱。”
雷星峰一直在虎崖堡生活，还以为这个世界没有货币，因为他见到的交易都是以物易物，他拿起一个金环，他发现金环制作的很精致，大小和前世的铜钱差不多，中间也有孔，不是方形的，而是圆形，上面没有任何文字和花纹，就是黄金制作的环，银环也一样。
雷星瑶数了一下，说道：“有两百多个金环，一百多个银环，好漂亮的钱。”
雷星峰道：“瑶瑶，你收起来吧。”
在家里，她一直都是管家婆角色，家里财产一直都是小丫头在管理，她将皮袋直接系在腰间。
老人道：“我这里还有一些修炼者用的钱币，比这个值钱多了。”
雷星瑶脸上露出倦意，雷星峰说道：“小妹，你去睡觉吧，待会儿，哥哥带你去吃饭。”
雷星瑶点头道：“好，我也困了。” 她从来都不用雷星峰操心，乖巧的让人心疼。
等到雷星瑶去房间上炕睡觉，雷星峰和老人坐下，雷星峰伸了一个懒腰，笑道：“阿爷，我们要在这里住多久？”
老人说道：“等过了寒季最冷的天气后再走，到时候找一个大商队，一起走。”
雷星峰算计了一下，知道要在大洪洞城最少住几个月，说道：“也好，刚好趁着这个机会，熟悉一下城市，呵呵，我和小妹一直在虎崖堡居住，什么也不懂，在这里学习一下也好。”
老人微微点头，虎崖堡太过蔽塞了，对于孩子的成长没有什么好处，这也是他修为恢复后，第一时间出来的原因，他可不想自己的孙子和孙女是土包子。
雷星峰暗自庆幸，自己有一个厉害的阿爷，以后的生活应该不会太艰难，一开始在虎崖堡的生活，让他简直痛苦万分，要不是上有阿爷，下有小妹，让他有了活下去的目标，让他熬过最艰难的日子，直到这时候，才算是苦尽甘来，现在看来，这世界并不像自己想象的那么落后。
天渐渐黑下来，仆人敲门进来，两个仆人抬着食盒，将菜一样一样的摆放在桌上，接着又有一个仆人提着一个精致的竹篮进来。
八菜一汤，外加一篮子的白面馒头。
非常精致的炒菜，很新鲜的蔬菜和各种烧肉，这个季节早就看不到蔬菜了，没想到这里竟然还有新鲜的蔬菜，这让雷星峰很是惊讶，他进房间叫起雷星瑶，带着迷迷糊糊的雷星瑶来到客厅。
雷星瑶立即就被菜香味刺激的彻底醒来，她扑到桌边，惊喜道：“这是给我们吃的？”
老人宠溺摸摸她的头，说道：“吃吧，吃吧。”
雷星瑶毫无形象的伸手就抓，用手吃饭很正常，雷星峰递给她一把勺子和一把小刀，他自己拿着一双筷子，也开始吃了起来。
老人吃的很慢，不过雷星峰和雷星瑶兄妹的吃相可就难看了，两人狼吞虎咽，雷星瑶只是一口菜，就将她彻底征服了，含糊道：“好吃，好吃……真的很好吃。”
好在炒菜的分量足够，都是小盆子装菜，雪白的大馒头，即使在大洪洞城也是有钱人吃的，普通人可吃不起，这可是大商队从外面带来的，这里的肉最便宜，新鲜菜很贵，最贵的反而是白面做的面食。
三人横扫饭菜，也就是片刻工夫，就一扫而空，雷星瑶揉着小肚子，脸上的表情很奇怪，又是舒服又是难过，她吃撑了。
雷星峰揉揉她的小脑袋，笑道：“吃撑了吧，起来活动一下。” 这丫头把一大盆汤喝了最少一半。
雷星瑶呜呜咽咽道：“哥哥啊，原来吃撑了……也很难受啊……哎呦，我……我……”她很是艰难的挪动身体，在客厅中转着圈子。
老人和雷星峰两人都忍不住笑，雷星瑶捂着肚子，那样子实在很好玩。
雷星瑶叫道：“不许笑我！ 谁让他们做菜那么好吃啊……哎呦，哎呦……撑死我了！”
第二天，齐玄带着杜洪辰师徒过来拜访。
齐玄已经很苍老了，作为一个凝结了三环真身，达到轮印真人高度的人，他可以活三百到三百五十岁，他已经有了三百多岁，又没有能够突破境界，所以外貌就开始苍老起来。
老人和齐玄见面，第一句话就让他彻底无语了：“老弟，上次见面……你是三环真身，那么多年了，你怎么还是三环真身，做轮印真人上瘾了吗？ 再不突破……你麻烦大了。”
半晌，齐玄才苦笑道：“老哥啊，想要突破，哪有那么容易啊！”
修炼者就是和时间争，如果不能及时突破，那么就面临着衰老死亡，比如雷暴老人，由于受伤，只能躲在穷乡僻壤等死，只能放下一切培养后代，若不是这次运气好，他几乎不可能再出现，真的会悄无声息的死在虎崖堡。
杜洪辰和文衍很老实的坐在一边，其实杜洪辰也面临这个问题，他也无法突破目前的境界，留给他的时间也不多了。
老人道：“你留在大洪洞太久了，已经没有进取的锐气。”
齐玄点头承认道：“是啊，这里的生活太安逸了，没有多少危险，呵呵，我打算再等几年，若是还没有突破，就离开大洪洞，看看有没有机缘突破，还不行的话，就死在外面吧。”
老人道：“嗯，就看你运气了。”
齐玄说道：“老哥，那么多年了，我一直不知道你就在大洪洞势力范围内潜修，你应该告诉我一声的。”
老人暗自苦笑，他摇头道：“你还是不知道的好，不然就算你大洪洞也吃不消。”
齐玄道：“老哥，你的伤全好了吗？”
老人淡淡的说道：“嗯，好了，运气好，还突破了。”
齐玄脸上露出骇然的神情，说道：“突破了？ 我的天啦……这太可怕了！
老哥，你达到六环真身？” 老人说道：“不管是几环真身，最重要的是，我已经彻底恢复了，嘿！ 我相信……有几个朋友，应该睡不着了吧，哈哈！”
杜洪辰和文衍全身僵硬，六环真身？ 这是什么概念，凝结六环真身，被人称为印真人，那才真正恐怖的高手，没想到有生之年，竟然能够看到一个印真人，两人的神情顿时无比的恭敬，印真人发飙的话，就算大洪洞所有高手上来，都没有赢的希望，这是真正顶尖人物。
齐玄道：“我们是边陲小势力，老哥，你就是一尊大神，呵呵。”
老人道：“神个屁！ 我要是大神的话，也不会被人打得重伤，躲在这么一个兔子不拉屎的鬼地方。”
齐玄苦笑一下，说道：“老哥，这是你的孙子和孙女？”
雷星峰和雷星瑶上前行礼，说道：“见过前辈。”
齐玄道：“不用叫前辈，叫我齐爷爷吧。”
雷星峰和雷星瑶立即改口叫了一声齐爷爷，齐玄笑着给了两人见面礼金，一人一袋金环，雷星峰倒是没有想到这里还有这种礼仪，顺手将礼金递给了雷星瑶。
雷星瑶这个小管家婆，笑嘻嘻的收起，她现在也知道，金环银环是可以换食物和其他东西，这种好玩意，多多益善，她才不会拒绝。
齐玄的眼光比杜洪辰要强太多了，刚开始还没有注意，等到两个孩子站在面前，他只是稍稍关注就流露出惊讶的神情，说道：“咦，老哥，你孙子和孙女不简单啊，竟然都是单轮印！ 好家伙，单一的绿轮印！
雷轮印！”
老人得意的笑笑，他最在乎的就是孙子和孙女了，有人夸奖，他欣然接受。
齐玄叹口气，半晌，才说道：“可惜了，可惜，老哥是打算自己教授了吧。”
老人点头道：“没错，你就不用想了。”
齐玄说道：“算了，不说这个，老哥，西戎之地你去过吗？”
老人道：“听说过，但是没去过。”
齐玄道：“西戎之地，发现了一处古人留下的轮藏空间，已经具现出来，按照有人估计，这个轮藏空间，足有两万多年。”
老人猛地站起来，说道：“什么！”

Chapter 18: Hong Tong City (2)
The old man Lei Bao said unbothered “Staying here is already very good.”
Hong Chen took out a leather pouch and said “There are some Gold Rings and Sliver Rings, this is to buy for the children.”
The old man nodded “Good.”
Only then did Hong Chen leave with Wen yan, hurrying to report to the big Elder.
After Hong Chen and his disciple left, XinFeng curiously opened the leather pouch and turned it over, a pile of silver rings falling onto the table. He asked “Grandpa, this is…..money?”
The old man nodded “This is good and sliver rings, coins used by mortals, there isn’t any copper rings here, ten copper rings can be exchanged for one silver ring and ten sliver rings can be exchanged for a gold ring, en, this is money used by mortals, we use another types of money, practitioners have their own specialized money.
XinFeng had been living in Tiger Cliff Castle until now, he thought that there want any coins used in this world and that transitions are done by exchanging items for other items. Picking up a gold ring, he noticed that the creation of the golden ring was very exquisite, the size similar to the coins from his past world, in the middle of it was a circular hole, on it wasn’t any words or words, the ring was made of gold, similarly to the sliver Ring.
Xinyao counted for a while and said “There is about 200 gold rings and roughly a hundred sliver ring, what pretty money.”
(Puttty: her interests now includes money along with food.)
XinFeng said “Yaoyao, you keep it.” Xinyao immediately tied the pouch to her waist. At home, she had the position of the housewife, all their belongings managed by her.
The old man said “Here I have some coins used by the practitioners, it’s worth much more than these.”
On Xinyao’s face appeared weariness, seeing that, XinFeng said “Sis, you go sleep, later brother will bring you out to eat.”
Xinyao nodded “Okay, I’m also sleepy.” She never needed XinFeng to worry about her, her sensibleness making people’s hearts painful.
Waiting after Xinyao left to sleep on the heatable brick bed, XinFeng and the old man sat down. XinFeng lazily stretched and laughed “Grandpa, how long are we going to stay here?”
The old man said “When the coldest days of the winter are over, at that time let’s find a big merchant to tag along with.”
XinFeng calculated for a while and realized that they would stay for a few months at least in Hong tong “Okay, using this chance we can get more familiar with the city, hehe, me and little sis has been staying in Tiger a Cliff Castle for so long and know nothing, learning here is also good.”
The old man nodded his head slightly, them living in Tiger Cliff Castle was like frogs living I’m a well, not beneficial to the children’s growth, this was his reason for them to leave as soon as possible once he recovered, he did not want his grandchildren to become bumpkins.
XinFeng celebrated silently that he had a powerful grandpa, his future would not be filled with hardships, at first living in Tiger Cliff Castle had made him miserable, if there wasn’t Grandpa and Little sis that gave him a reason to life on and pass through the hardest days, now that the hardships were over, it seems that this world isn’t as behind as he thought.
The sky gradually darkened, the servants knocked and opened the door, two of them were carrying food, placing down dish by dish on the table, another servant carried a dedicate bamboo basket.
8 dishes 1 soup along with a basket of steamed flour bread.
Exquisite stir-fried vegetables, fresh vegetables and a variety of roasted meat, in this season vegetable were already gone, not expecting to actually see such fresh vegetables, this let XinFeng feel extremely shocked, he went in to wake Xinyao and brought the dazed Xinyao into the living room.
Xinyao immediately woke up completely by the smell of food, pouncing onto the side of the table she said surprised “This is for us to eat?”
The old man lovingly petted her head “Eat, eat.”
Without caring about her image, she grabbed the food with her hands, eating with hands was very normal, XinFeng passed her a spoon and a small knife, taking chopsticks for himself, he also began to eat.
The old man ate slowly, but XinFeng and Xinyao the pair of siblings ate uglily, the both of them shoving food down their throats quickly. With only a mouth full of vegetables had already conquered her, causing her to say lovingly “Delicious, delicious……really very delicious.”
Luckily the vegetables were enough, all of them in small amounts along with Snow White huge flour buns, which was something only the rich can enjoy while normal people cannot, this was something big merchants brought from the outside, here, meat was the cheapest, fresh vegetables expensive and the most priciest was the food made with white flour.
The three of them finishing all the food with only a moment’s effort, Xinyao rubbed her small stomach, her expression strange, there was both comfortableness and sadness, she had eaten too much.
XinFeng laughed as he petted her small head “Ate too much eh, stand up and exercise for a bit.” This little lady had at least drunk half of a big pot of soup.
XinYao muttered “Brother, eating too much………is also uncomfortable….aiyo, I…..I” she moved her body with difficulty, turning around in the living room.
The old man and XinFeng could not help but laugh, the sight of Xinyao grabbing her stomach in pain was rather funny.
Xinyao shouted “You’re not allowed to laugh at me! It’s their fault to cook such tasty food…..aiyo, aiyo……I’m stuffed to death!” ……
The next day, Xi Quan brought Hong Tong to visit.
Xi Quan was already very old, as a man who condensed 3 real ring body and reached the level of a Real Lun Yin master, he can live for about 300-350 years, he was already 300 plus in age and was unable to break through, which is why his appearance had became to turn old.
The meeting between the old man and Xi Quan, the first sentence had already made him speechless “Old brother, our last meeting…you have 3 real ring bodies, after so many years, how are you still stuck there, are you addicted to being a real Lun Ying master? If you don’t break through soon……then it would spell trouble for you.”
After a while, Xi Qian laughed bitterly “Old brother, wanting to break through, how is it so easy!”
Practitioners are also fighters against time, if they cannot breakthrough in time, then they would have to wait for death, for example the old man Lei Bao, due to his injury, he could only hide in a village to wait for death as he groomed the younger generation, if it wasn’t for his luck then he would probably never appear again, dying silently in Tiger Cliff Castle.
Hong Chen and Wen Yan sat obediently at the side actually Hong Chen was also facing this problem, he was also unable to breakthrough his current realm, his remaining time was also not long.
The old man said “You stayed in Hong Tong for too long, your vigor behind eagerness to make progress gone.”
Xi Quan nodded admitting “Yeah, my life here is too comfortable, there isn’t any danger, hehe, I plan to wait a few years, if there isn’t any sudden breakthroughs, I will leave Hong Tong and see if I have any affinity f breaking through, if it still doesn’t happen then I’ll just die outside.”
The old man replied “En, it depends on your luck then.”
Qi Quan said “Old Brother, after all these years, I never knew you were secretly practice under the area of hong tong’s influence, you should have told me.”
The old man had a bitter smile in his mind and said shaking his head “It’s better if you didn’t know, if you did then even if you stayed in Hong Tong you would not feel well.”
Xi Qian said “Brother, has your injury recovered entirely?”
The old man said blandly “En, it’s okay now, my luck is good, I even broke through.”
A aghast expression appeared on Xi Quan’s face “Sudden breakthrough? My god…..that’s too scary! Old brother, you achieved 6 real ring bodies?”
The old man said “No matter the amount of real ring bodies, the most important is that I have recovered entirely, hey! I believe…..a few friends, cannot sleep soundly at night anymore, haha!” In his voice was a strong resentment and vengeance.
Hong Chen and Wen yan both stiffened, six real ring bodies what it meant was being called a real Yin master, that was the real terrifying expert, they never expected that in their lives, they would actually be able to see a real Yin master, the two of their expressions becoming a respectful one, if a real Yin master is angered, even if all the experts of Hong Tong gathered, they still wouldn’t have a chance of winning.
Xi Quan said “We are all small forces at the sidelines, old brother, you are a god, hoho.”
The old man said “Rubbish! If I was a god, then I wouldn’t be injured heavily by another people and have to hide in a place where even a rabbit won’t shit at.”
Xi Quan smiled bitterly “Old brother, is these your grandson and granddaughter?”
Xinyao and XinFeng walked in from and gave their respects “Seen the senior.”
Xi Quan said “No need to call Senior, call me grandpa Xi.”
XinFeng and Xinyao both immediately called Xi grandpa, Xi Quan smiled and gave the both of them meeting gifts, each of them receiving a bag of gold rings, XinFeng did not expect such a custom here, but eventually he passed the bag to Xinyao.
Xinyao this little house lady happily received the gift, she now knew that Gold rings and sliver rings can be exchanged for food and other stuff, such a intresting thing, so course she would happily receive it.
Xi Quan’s insight was much better than Hong chen’s, at first he did not notice but after seeing the two of them standing in front did he get a closer look, revealing a shocked expression “Yi, old bother, your grandchildren aren’t simple, ah, both of them are single attributed! Good man, a Lv Lun attribute! Lightning Lun attribute!”
(Puttty: Yi=Hmm?)
The old man smiled gleefully, what matters the most to him was his grandchildren, if someone praised them, then he would gladly receive the praise.
Xi Quan sighed and after a while, he spoke “Such a pity, such a pity, old brother is planning to teach them himself.”
The old man nodded “That’s right, you can stop thinking about it.”
Qi Xuan said “Nevermind, let’s not talk about this, old brother, have you visited Xi Rong land?”
The old man replied “I’ve heard about it, but never visited.”
Xi Quan said “Xi Rong land, they found a Lunchang space of the ancient people, according to their calculation, this Lun pChang space is about 20 thousand year old.”
The old man abruptly stood up “What!”

"value": "Chapter 220 Broken relations\nThese people were lucky and could be called elites among the peerless geniuses in their respective forces, otherwise, there was no way to be summoned by demon island bell.\nEveryone settled here and were waiting for more people to come, but it was only just the beginning. In the coming ten days time, more and more people would continue to arrive on the demon island. Then, it would truly be the most intense time, after all, besides competing with each other, these experts would have to deal with this mysterious island’s environment. However, at least majority of them were not here to battle with others, but just to find various precious heavenly treasures, so there was no need to make enemies here and there.\nOf course, at some point, they might have to compete over rare treasure, and then if necessary, they wouldn’t hesitate to kill.\nTen days passed quickly, and during this period, more and more people arrived in this valley, and the number of gathered experts soon reached more than two hundred. Ye Xiwen did not stay here for a long time, every time he stayed for some time then set out in search of Hua Menghan and Chen Ruochen. And, he did not want to stay here for a long time, because to be honest he didn’t want to join their alliance.\nYes, three days ago when Ye Xiwen returned from the search, he heard that an alliance had been formed during his absence. And it was made under the leadership of three super experts, namely Xiao Zhen, Liu Yueru and Wu Shaoqun. The three super experts initiated the idea of forming an alliance and received many people’s support, after all, if they could have the backing of an alliance then treasure hunt would be fairly easy and safer.\nOf course, there were some ambitious people who didn’t join the alliance.\nThree days later when he arrived here, things had slightly changed and looked more formal, even the population had decreased in the valley. Initially, there were 200 experts gathered here, but now merely 60-70 people stayed back and probably as part of the alliance.\nYe Xiwen occasionally used to come here but only stayed for a while then used to leave in a hurry, so he didn’t recognize several faces.\nHe didn’t even know when they built a small city in the valley. However, considering the magical powers and capabilities of these truth level experts, building a small city from scratch shouldn’t be too difficult.\nToday, when Ye Xiwen arrived, he saw that a group of warriors had arrived on the demon island. The group consisted of ten men and was led by a tall skinny man, who was clad in leather clothing and had disheveled hair while there was an unchanging sinister and ruthless expression on his face.\nIn front of him, a huge formidable looking tiger was crouching on the ground and its roars were echoing throughout the valley.\nIt seemed like they were waiting for the city gate to open, and there were few guard disciples stationed near the gate, which seemed a bit strange.\nAfter some time, the city gate finally opened. When the skinny man saw the gate opening, he lifted his chip up, puffed out his chest, and walked forward. Other members of the group immediately followed after him and none of them dared to overtake him. However, suddenly, all of them were surprised to see that from the other side, a black figure took the lead and went ahead, meanwhile also overtaking the skinny man in the process.\nA ruthless look appeared in that skinny man’s eyes. He immediately used his mind connection with the tiger and ordered it to attack. A fierce and deafening roar resounded everywhere, and it suddenly transformed into a yellow and black lighting and leapt towards Ye Xiwen from behind, while keeping its big mouth opened as if to bite him to death.\nThe tiger’s terrifying power was overflowing at this moment, and whether it was the guard disciples or the followers of the skinny man, all were trembling with fear. They were not strong enough in the face of such a beast, especially since they were mostly the experts of truth first stage, truth second stage or truth third stage at most.\nThis tiger was at least a demon beast of Small truth realm, so how could they not feel terror and threat from it.\nFor experts of this age, stepping into the truth realm itself was a great feat. Reaching Small truth realm was not something all could achieve at such a young age, except few exceptionally talented disciples like Xiao Zhen and handful of other experts. (NT: Truth fifth stage<Small Truth<Truth sixth stage)\nYe Xiwen was suddenly furious at how quick they were to start this inexplicable dispute, but he reacted very fast. He immediately took his long blade and chopped out a terrifying Bladelight towards the approaching tiger. This Bladelight was lightning fast, and in a blink of an eye, it rushed out and collided with the demon tiger.\n“Puchi!”\nThe huge stature of that demon tiger was directly cut into two halves by the Bladelight and its blood sprayed out all over the ground. All of the disciples were perplexed because they thought that this would be the end of Ye Xiwen, but never expected that he would turn out to be so powerful.\nThe tiger was a demon beast of Small truth realm, but its master was much more terrifying. He was an extremely strong expert of more than Small truth realm.\n“How is this possible? It was a Small truth realm demon tiger and considered a frightening creature in the outer world, but was actually slaughtered in one blade attack. Who is this man and how is he so formidable?”\n“Do you want to die!” The tall skinny powerhouse was furious, and was about to attack, but suddenly, the figure of a handsome young man came flying from the valley and landed on the scene. It was none other than Xiao Zhen, but at this time, there was a cold look on his face.\n“Ye Xiwen, are you trying to provoke Battling Heavens brotherhood?” Xiao Zhen glared at Ye Xiwen and shouted.\n“I am not trying to provoke anyone and neither do I intend to stir up trouble. If I am not welcome here then I will leave this instant.” Ye Xiwen looked calm and there was an ever tranquil expression on his face, but there was anger surging in his heart. This Xiao Zhen didn’t even bother to know what happened here and directly put the blame on him. Ye Xiwen’s flaming heart was restless with anger but he decided not to continue the conflict with Xiao Zhen, since there was a large difference between their levels.\n“First, you kill my pet then you try to run away. Well, it’s too late for that.” The sinister looking skinny man said with a ruthless look in his eyes.\n“Do not mess with me, or I’ll slaughter you just like I slaughtered your pet.” Ye Xiwen narrowed his eyes and fiercely said.\n“Ye Xiwen, how dare you behave so arrogantly!” Xiao Zhen once again shouted out loud.\n“Are you blind or what? Cannot you see who really is trying to provoke whom?” Ye Xiwen said in an anger-filled voice. Although he was aware of Xiao Zhen’s tyrannical strength but he didn’t care. Even if he couldn’t beat Xiao Zhen, he could just open his devil wings and get out of here. He was being passive for now because he didn’t want to break his relation with Wu Shaoqun, therefore even though he was furious right now, but he was holding himself so as to not completely ruin his relations with Battling Heavens brotherhood.\nImmediately, Xiao Zhen felt that his dignity had been challenged while his sword-like fierce eyes were constantly staring at Ye Xiwen.\n“Brother Xiao, I arrived here with people of my tribe at your invitation and this guy killed my most important partner. Today, if I do not kill him then it will be difficult to bear the hatred in my heart.” The skinny tribal youth’s insidious eyes were stubbornly staring at Ye Xiwen.\n“You seem quite eager to die. I’ll gladly buy you a ride to hell.” Ye Xiwen said in a calm voice, but his cold gaze was as if piercing the skinny man.\n“You’re really arrogant. Is this how you want to challenge our Battling Heavens brotherhood?” Xiao Zhen said and looked coldly at Ye Xiwen. If not considering the relationship between this boy and Wu Shaoqun then he would have already beheaded this rampant boy.\n“Obviously, this is a matter between him and me, what does this have to do with Battling Heaven brotherhood? It is imperative that you keep on proclaiming the name of Battling Heavens brotherhood, because, in your eyes, it is just a tool to be used for your convenience.” Ye Xiwen’s accurate words directly hit the mark.\nYe Xiwen wasn’t afraid of him, and at the worst he would leave this place, after all, his cultivation level was far worse than that of Xiao Zhen, so fighting him was not an option.\nBut that was only for now because later, the situation might be different, therefore, he was not afraid of Xiao Zhen. And as far that skinny youth was concerned, Ye Xiwen was simply not paying attention to him.\nThe skinny man was certainly an extremely formidable powerhouse and was at the peak of Small truth, but it was not enough to impress Ye Xiwen. After all, the skinny man’s current battle strength was only comparable to Ye Xiwen’s battle strength when he used to be on truth third layer, and now, Ye Xiwen had already broken through to the truth fourth stage.\nAfter listening to the words of Ye Xiwen, there was a sudden commotion among the members of Battling Heavens brotherhood. Everyone saw what happened there and they were certainly smart enough to figure out who was at fault here. It was the skinny man who first tried to kill Ye Xiwen, and when Ye Xiwen acted in self-defense, he was actually accused of provoking their brotherhood.\nXiao Zhen made an appearance and interfered, but if he had acted alone, nobody would say anything, however, he kept on proclaiming in the name of brotherhood, which was not a right thing to do. Why was he pulling them into this matter for no reason?\nIndeed, they were now the members of Battling Heavens brotherhood, but they joined it just because they were looking for a backing since they were looking for protection. They didn’t join the brotherhood to act as someone’s lackeys and be treated as cannon fodder.\nOne must know, even the most ordinary members of Battling Heavens brotherhood were actually considered super geniuses at their respective native places, plus they were also the center of attraction in their sects. None of them was foolish enough to willingly act as a cannon fodder for someone else’s sake.\nXiao Zhen also noticed the commotion among the members of Battling Heavens brotherhood, and his complexion suddenly turned unsightly.\nHe immediately looked towards Ye Xiwen but actually saw that his fierce eyes were full of hostility and killing intention. No one knew what Ye Xiwen was thinking and why he had not yet taken any action.\nYe Xiwen did not stay, just turned around and left, but was actually secretly prepared to immediately fight back if someone tried to attack him.\nBut after this matter, he knew one thing that his relation with Battling Heavens brotherhood had completely broken off, even though there was no good relationship between them to begin with.\nXiao Zhen didn’t know what to do until Ye Xiwen’s figure vanished from there. He didn’t do anything to stop Ye Xiwen and let him ago, but the killing intention in his eyes was still unabated."

第二百二十章
这些人都是天之骄子，在各自的势力之中，基本上都是天才，而且还是天才中的天才，不然的话，也没办法被万妖岛的钟声所召唤。
众人集中在这里，只是落脚，也是等着更多的人过来，现在才不过是刚刚开始罢了，还会有更多的人会在接下来的十几天的时间内，登陆万妖岛，到那个时候，才是真正最激烈的时候，除了彼此之间的竞争，还有万妖岛神秘莫测的环境，他们来万妖岛，起码大部分都不是为了和别人争斗的，而是来寻找各种遗迹和天材地宝的，没必要和所有人都结仇。
当然该争夺的时候还是要争夺，如果有必要，厮杀还是需要的。
十天的时间很快就过去了，十天的时间，让这个山谷里的人越来越多，很快经常在这边活动的人就超过了两百多人，都是天之骄子，叶希文并没有在这边停留很久，每一次都是在这边停留一段时间，他本来就是为了探听有没有华梦涵两人的消息，并不是想要在这边长久的驻留，或者加入他们的联盟。
是的，三天前叶希文来到的时候，就听他们说过要组建一个联盟，这是由最早在这边的三个超级高手，萧真，吴绍群和柳月如发起的，听说得到了不少人的拥护，毕竟他们都是来寻宝的如果能有一个联盟当成后盾，那当然会不一样。
当然也有一些野心勃勃的人自立出去，现在叶希文也不知道到底怎么了。
三天后再度来到这里的时候，这里明显就正规的多了，不过人数也少的多了，原本的两百多人，现在仅仅只剩下了六七十人的模样，这六七十人，应该就是这个联盟的成员了，而不愿意留下的应该都走了，不过也多了不少叶希文所不认识的面孔。
不过以叶希文偶尔才来一次，又是来去匆匆的情况，又有几个是认得的呢。
一座小小的城池不知道何时，在山谷之中拔地而起，建造一个城池对于这些神通广大的真道高手来说，并不困难。
这天叶希文赶到的时候，又有一批武者从万妖岛外赶到，大约十来个的模样，其中为首一人身材枯瘦，身上裹着皮衣，披头散发，阴鸷的脸上看着有几分阴毒。
在他的身前，一只巨大的老虎趴伏在地上，一声声低吼声响彻山谷，应该是某一个古老部落的可怕强者。
这一行十几个人，似乎都是在等待入城，而几个看守城门的弟子看着也有些陌生。
没有很久，这座小城的城门就打开了，那个枯瘦的男子见城门打开，正要昂首挺胸，率先走进去，身后的诸人都跟着他不敢超越，却见另外一边，一道青色的身影率先走了过去，竟然走到了他的前面。
那枯瘦的男子眼中闪过一丝戾色，他坐下的猛虎心灵相通，一声震天猛吼，化作一道黄黑色的闪电朝着叶希文背后袭击而去，一个饿虎扑食，张开血盆大口要将叶希文生生咬死。
可怕的虎威四溢，周围的无论是看守城门的弟子，还是那些跟随者那个枯瘦男子而来的弟子，都微微有些震动，他们的实力都不强，多数都是真道一重，真道二重的武者，极个别也仅仅只是真道三重的武者。
这头妖虎起码也是真道五重进入了小圆满境界的了，他们不能不畏惧。
对于他们这个年纪的武者来说，能修炼到真道，就已经是极为了不得了，更别说真道小圆满境界了，除了萧真等有数的几个超过真道五重的高手之外，真道小圆满境界也都属于凤毛麟角。
叶希文顿时大怒，这莫名的争端来的快，但是叶希文的反应却丝毫不慢，叶希文手中长刀瞬间滑落，爆绽出一道可怕的刀芒，这一刀刀芒快如闪电，眨眼间的功夫，就朝着身后那一头妖虎斩去。
“噗嗤！”
身形庞大的妖虎被那一道刀芒生生斩落，鲜血飞溅喷洒了出来，所有的弟子都傻了眼，原本他们还觉得，叶希文这是完了，惹上了一对小圆满境界的高手。
那一头妖虎是真道小圆满境界的高手，但是他的主人更加的可怖，更是小圆满境界中极强的强者。
“怎么可能，那是小圆满境界的妖虎啊，放在外面也是震慑一方的存在，居然被一刀就斩杀了，这人是谁，怎么会这么可怕！”
“你想死！” 那个身材枯瘦的强者顿时大怒，正要动手，蓦地一道虹光从谷内飞出，虹光之上，踏着一个高大英俊的青年，面带寒霜，正是萧真。
“叶希文，你是想挑衅我们战天盟么？” 萧真一来就对叶希文率先发难喝道。
“我没有要挑衅谁，也没有要惹事的想法，如果不欢迎，我现在就走！” 叶希文神色平静，心中怒火难平，萧真也不问来由，就要压服叶希文，叶希文心中怒火直冒，不过却也没有要和萧真继续冲突下去的想法，对于萧真超过真道五重的可怕实力，他心中还是非常忌讳。
“杀了我的宠物，现在想走，会不会太迟了点！” 那部落中的可怕高手一声阴毒的眼睛，死死的盯着叶希文，阴测测的笑道。
“别惹我，我杀你如屠鸡狗！” 叶希文眯着眼睛冷喝道。
“叶希文，你还敢嚣张！” 萧真再次喝道。
到底是谁在挑衅！” 叶希文按耐住怒火说道，虽然忌惮萧真，不过叶希文却也不怕萧真，真打起来，即便未必打得过，但是他张开恶魔之翼要逃走，他也休想拦得住，只是因为吴绍群的关系，所以不想和战天盟完全翻脸罢了。
顿时萧真感觉自己的尊严受到了挑战，两道目光朝着叶希文激射而去，犹如一柄柄的利剑，冰冷无比。
“萧兄，我阿古达是应你之邀而来，却被这厮斩杀了我一生中最重要的伙伴，今天我不杀他，我心难平！” 那部落青年阴毒的目光死死的盯着叶希文。
“想死的话，我就送你一程！” 叶希文冷冷的看着那个部落青年阿古达。
“你真是飞扬跋扈，这是要挑衅我们战天盟所有的武者么？” 萧真冷冷的看着叶希文说道，如果不是考虑到和吴绍群的关系，早就将这个嚣张跋扈的小子给斩杀了。
“明明是我和他之间的恩怨，和战天盟又有什么关系，你口口声声就要把战天盟拉入进来，战天盟在你的眼中只是这样的工具么？” 叶希文字字珠玑反驳道。
叶希文不怕他，大不了走人就是了，现在他的境界比起萧真差的太远，打不过也正常。
不过那也仅仅是现在而已，以后的事情就很难说了，因此叶希文一点都不怵萧真，对于那个部落青年阿古达，更是一点都没放在眼里。
这青年固然是真道小圆满境界之中极其强大的强者，但是对于叶希文来说却不算什么，最多只能算是叶希文还是真道三重时候的战斗水平，和现如今已经突破到真道四重的叶希文来说，根本不是一个级别上的。
听了叶希文的话，战天盟的弟子顿时有些骚动起来，是啊，是是非非如何，所有人都是看在眼里的，是这阿古达先要杀叶希文，要将叶希文杀死，之后还处处挑衅，可以说已经是不占理了。
但是萧真出来之后更加的不占理，若是他自己要出手也就算了，没有人会说什么，但是口口声声都要加上战天盟，这是要拉上他们一起上么？
他们确实是战天盟的弟子，但是加入战天盟也只是为了找一个后盾，在寻宝跟人起冲突的时候，能有一个保护，不是给别人当小弟，当炮灰的。
要知道，即便是战天盟中一个最普通的弟子，那放在其他地方也都是超级天才，也都是众人瞩目的焦点，师门长辈心中的宝贝，也没哪一个是傻子，又岂肯甘心给别人做嫁衣，给别人当炮灰。
萧真明显也注意到了身后的战天盟弟子的骚动，顿时脸色难看起来。
望向叶希文的眼中更是杀意十足，眼中的戾气闪烁，不知道在想什么迟迟没有动手。
叶希文没有停留，转身就走，但是暗地里却是准备好了，如果他胆敢对自己动手的话，他立刻就会还手。
不过经此一件事情，他知道，自己和战天盟的关系彻底决裂了，即便他们本来关系就没多好。
萧真不知道在考虑什么，一直到叶希文的身影消失，都没有动手，放任叶希文离去，但是眼中的杀意却是丝毫不减。

Chapter 220 Broken relations
These people were lucky and could be called elites among the peerless geniuses in their respective forces, otherwise, there was no way to be summoned by demon island bell.
Everyone settled here and were waiting for more people to come, but it was only just the beginning. In the coming ten days time, more and more people would continue to arrive on the demon island. Then, it would truly be the most intense time, after all, besides competing with each other, these experts would have to deal with this mysterious island’s environment. However, at least majority of them were not here to battle with others, but just to find various precious heavenly treasures, so there was no need to make enemies here and there.
Of course, at some point, they might have to compete over rare treasure, and then if necessary, they wouldn’t hesitate to kill.
Ten days passed quickly, and during this period, more and more people arrived in this valley, and the number of gathered experts soon reached more than two hundred. Ye Xiwen did not stay here for a long time, every time he stayed for some time then set out in search of Hua Menghan and Chen Ruochen. And, he did not want to stay here for a long time, because to be honest he didn’t want to join their alliance.
Yes, three days ago when Ye Xiwen returned from the search, he heard that an alliance had been formed during his absence. And it was made under the leadership of three super experts, namely Xiao Zhen, Liu Yueru and Wu Shaoqun. The three super experts initiated the idea of forming an alliance and received many people’s support, after all, if they could have the backing of an alliance then treasure hunt would be fairly easy and safer.
Of course, there were some ambitious people who didn’t join the alliance.
Three days later when he arrived here, things had slightly changed and looked more formal, even the population had decreased in the valley. Initially, there were 200 experts gathered here, but now merely 60-70 people stayed back and probably as part of the alliance.
Ye Xiwen occasionally used to come here but only stayed for a while then used to leave in a hurry, so he didn’t recognize several faces.
He didn’t even know when they built a small city in the valley. However, considering the magical powers and capabilities of these truth level experts, building a small city from scratch shouldn’t be too difficult.
Today, when Ye Xiwen arrived, he saw that a group of warriors had arrived on the demon island. The group consisted of ten men and was led by a tall skinny man, who was clad in leather clothing and had disheveled hair while there was an unchanging sinister and ruthless expression on his face.
In front of him, a huge formidable looking tiger was crouching on the ground and its roars were echoing throughout the valley.
It seemed like they were waiting for the city gate to open, and there were few guard disciples stationed near the gate, which seemed a bit strange.
After some time, the city gate finally opened. When the skinny man saw the gate opening, he lifted his chip up, puffed out his chest, and walked forward. Other members of the group immediately followed after him and none of them dared to overtake him. However, suddenly, all of them were surprised to see that from the other side, a black figure took the lead and went ahead, meanwhile also overtaking the skinny man in the process.
A ruthless look appeared in that skinny man’s eyes. He immediately used his mind connection with the tiger and ordered it to attack. A fierce and deafening roar resounded everywhere, and it suddenly transformed into a yellow and black lighting and leapt towards Ye Xiwen from behind, while keeping its big mouth opened as if to bite him to death.
The tiger’s terrifying power was overflowing at this moment, and whether it was the guard disciples or the followers of the skinny man, all were trembling with fear. They were not strong enough in the face of such a beast, especially since they were mostly the experts of truth first stage, truth second stage or truth third stage at most.
This tiger was at least a demon beast of Small truth realm, so how could they not feel terror and threat from it.
For experts of this age, stepping into the truth realm itself was a great feat. Reaching Small truth realm was not something all could achieve at such a young age, except few exceptionally talented disciples like Xiao Zhen and handful of other experts. (NT: Truth fifth stage<Small Truth<Truth sixth stage)
Ye Xiwen was suddenly furious at how quick they were to start this inexplicable dispute, but he reacted very fast. He immediately took his long blade and chopped out a terrifying Bladelight towards the approaching tiger. This Bladelight was lightning fast, and in a blink of an eye, it rushed out and collided with the demon tiger.
“Puchi!”
The huge stature of that demon tiger was directly cut into two halves by the Bladelight and its blood sprayed out all over the ground. All of the disciples were perplexed because they thought that this would be the end of Ye Xiwen, but never expected that he would turn out to be so powerful.
The tiger was a demon beast of Small truth realm, but its master was much more terrifying. He was an extremely strong expert of more than Small truth realm.
“How is this possible? It was a Small truth realm demon tiger and considered a frightening creature in the outer world, but was actually slaughtered in one blade attack. Who is this man and how is he so formidable?”
“Do you want to die!” The tall skinny powerhouse was furious, and was about to attack, but suddenly, the figure of a handsome young man came flying from the valley and landed on the scene. It was none other than Xiao Zhen, but at this time, there was a cold look on his face.
“Ye Xiwen, are you trying to provoke Battling Heavens brotherhood?” Xiao Zhen glared at Ye Xiwen and shouted.
“I am not trying to provoke anyone and neither do I intend to stir up trouble. If I am not welcome here then I will leave this instant.” Ye Xiwen looked calm and there was an ever tranquil expression on his face, but there was anger surging in his heart. This Xiao Zhen didn’t even bother to know what happened here and directly put the blame on him. Ye Xiwen’s flaming heart was restless with anger but he decided not to continue the conflict with Xiao Zhen, since there was a large difference between their levels.
“First, you kill my pet then you try to run away. Well, it’s too late for that.” The sinister looking skinny man said with a ruthless look in his eyes.
“Do not mess with me, or I’ll slaughter you just like I slaughtered your pet.” Ye Xiwen narrowed his eyes and fiercely said.
“Ye Xiwen, how dare you behave so arrogantly!” Xiao Zhen once again shouted out loud.
“Are you blind or what? Cannot you see who really is trying to provoke whom?” Ye Xiwen said in an anger-filled voice. Although he was aware of Xiao Zhen’s tyrannical strength but he didn’t care. Even if he couldn’t beat Xiao Zhen, he could just open his devil wings and get out of here. He was being passive for now because he didn’t want to break his relation with Wu Shaoqun, therefore even though he was furious right now, but he was holding himself so as to not completely ruin his relations with Battling Heavens brotherhood.
Immediately, Xiao Zhen felt that his dignity had been challenged while his sword-like fierce eyes were constantly staring at Ye Xiwen.
“Brother Xiao, I arrived here with people of my tribe at your invitation and this guy killed my most important partner. Today, if I do not kill him then it will be difficult to bear the hatred in my heart.” The skinny tribal youth’s insidious eyes were stubbornly staring at Ye Xiwen.
“You seem quite eager to die. I’ll gladly buy you a ride to hell.” Ye Xiwen said in a calm voice, but his cold gaze was as if piercing the skinny man.
“You’re really arrogant. Is this how you want to challenge our Battling Heavens brotherhood?” Xiao Zhen said and looked coldly at Ye Xiwen. If not considering the relationship between this boy and Wu Shaoqun then he would have already beheaded this rampant boy.
“Obviously, this is a matter between him and me, what does this have to do with Battling Heaven brotherhood? It is imperative that you keep on proclaiming the name of Battling Heavens brotherhood, because, in your eyes, it is just a tool to be used for your convenience.” Ye Xiwen’s accurate words directly hit the mark.
Ye Xiwen wasn’t afraid of him, and at the worst he would leave this place, after all, his cultivation level was far worse than that of Xiao Zhen, so fighting him was not an option.
But that was only for now because later, the situation might be different, therefore, he was not afraid of Xiao Zhen. And as far that skinny youth was concerned, Ye Xiwen was simply not paying attention to him.
The skinny man was certainly an extremely formidable powerhouse and was at the peak of Small truth, but it was not enough to impress Ye Xiwen. After all, the skinny man’s current battle strength was only comparable to Ye Xiwen’s battle strength when he used to be on truth third layer, and now, Ye Xiwen had already broken through to the truth fourth stage.
After listening to the words of Ye Xiwen, there was a sudden commotion among the members of Battling Heavens brotherhood. Everyone saw what happened there and they were certainly smart enough to figure out who was at fault here. It was the skinny man who first tried to kill Ye Xiwen, and when Ye Xiwen acted in self-defense, he was actually accused of provoking their brotherhood.
Xiao Zhen made an appearance and interfered, but if he had acted alone, nobody would say anything, however, he kept on proclaiming in the name of brotherhood, which was not a right thing to do. Why was he pulling them into this matter for no reason?
Indeed, they were now the members of Battling Heavens brotherhood, but they joined it just because they were looking for a backing since they were looking for protection. They didn’t join the brotherhood to act as someone’s lackeys and be treated as cannon fodder.
One must know, even the most ordinary members of Battling Heavens brotherhood were actually considered super geniuses at their respective native places, plus they were also the center of attraction in their sects. None of them was foolish enough to willingly act as a cannon fodder for someone else’s sake.
Xiao Zhen also noticed the commotion among the members of Battling Heavens brotherhood, and his complexion suddenly turned unsightly.
He immediately looked towards Ye Xiwen but actually saw that his fierce eyes were full of hostility and killing intention. No one knew what Ye Xiwen was thinking and why he had not yet taken any action.
Ye Xiwen did not stay, just turned around and left, but was actually secretly prepared to immediately fight back if someone tried to attack him.
But after this matter, he knew one thing that his relation with Battling Heavens brotherhood had completely broken off, even though there was no good relationship between them to begin with.
Xiao Zhen didn’t know what to do until Ye Xiwen’s figure vanished from there. He didn’t do anything to stop Ye Xiwen and let him ago, but the killing intention in his eyes was still unabated.

"value": "Chapter 128 – Sweeping the outer disciples (2)\nZhao Feng felt a bit troubled when facing Hong San and although Hong San was stronger than Hong Si and Xiao Sun, this wasn’t the main reason.\nIt was because of his opponent's’ attitude.\nFirstly, he had admitted he wasn’t as strong as Zhao Feng!\nThis meant that he wouldn’t look down on his opponent. On the contrary, he would use 200% of his power to fight Zhao Feng.\nApart from that, his aim wasn’t to win.\nHis only goal was to expend Zhao Feng’s energy. From the two points alone, Hong San would have almost no flaws.\nEven though Zhao Feng’s movement skill was profound, Hong San didn’t hastily attack. Instead, he tried to find out where Zhao Feng’s actual position was.\n“I can beat him in tens of moves… But then… ”\nZhao Feng’s figure flashed and appeared in front of Hong San again.\nFacing the calm Hong San, Zhao Feng decided to change his tactics. Instead of using skill, he would use absolute strength to suppress him.\nZhao Feng took in a light breath and released his aura. Instantly, Zhao Feng’s aura rose half a level, which made Hong San’s expression change.\nHou Yuan’s pupil contracted as he watched from below. A lot of people were stunned, they didn’t expect Zhao Feng still to be holding back.\nThis meant that while fighting Xiao Sun and Hong Si, Zhao Feng didn’t expend much energy at all.\n“Impossible! The amount of energy he can store is even more than me… ”\nXiao Sun stared at Zhao Feng, who was getting stronger with every moment, with a pale face.\nOne Lin Star Finger!\nZhao Feng used his max level Star Finger and even though he didn’t merge the 4 Wind Stances into it this time, the power still shocked the crowd. Boom! Boom! Boom… !\nStreak after streak of azure light swept towards Hong San like a flock of birds.\nHong San’s face was pale white as he circulated his half-step Ascended Ream inner strength and spread a defensive barrier out.\nLimitless Mountain! Hong San spread out his arms and his aura turned as stable and deep as Mount Tai as it clashed with Zhao Feng’s attacks. Peng----------------\nAn explosion sounded between the two as rocks and dust were sent flying.\nFrom the looks of it, this was a battle of inner strength. But after a few seconds, Hong San grunted and was pushed back.\nWhile using his full strength, a flaw had appeared and Zhao Feng had taken advantage of it.\nOne Line Star Finger! Tornado Stance!\nZhao Feng kept on attacking while he had the advantage and after the merging of the Tornado Stance, the power rose to another level. Pew! Pew! Qiu… !\nThe streaks of light were like a meteor shower and the power had exceeded the limits of the Consolidated Realm. The watching outer disciples stared with open mouths.\nAt this moment, they had to admit Zhao Feng could be ranked in the top 5 and have the right to challenge 3rd place.\n“Wah!”\nHong San was only able to block a few moves before he spat out a mouthful of blood. Even though he tried his best just to expend Zhao Feng’s energy, he still lost horribly.\nAccording to his original plan, he was to waste time and waste Zhao Feng’s energy. But he didn’t expect the latter to use one of his best moves and beat him in such a short amount of time.\n“I tried my best.”\nHong San looked helplessly towards Hou Yuan.\nHou Yuan’s expression was still calm: “You’ve already forced Zhao Feng to use all his strength, so he should have expended a bit of energy.”\nThe spectators went crazy as Zhao Feng won his 3rd battle.\nBefore today, none of them would have thought that Zhao Feng would be able to take care of three opponents so quickly and efficiently.\nFrom the current situation, it seemed that Zhao Feng won his fights pretty easily. There was no hard fought battles.\nAfter beating Hong San, Zhao Feng replaced his rank.\n“The fourth challenge: Zhao Feng ranked 8th vs Hou Yuan ranked 3rd.”\nExpectations flashed in Deacon Qiu’s eyes.\nAfter winning 3 battles in a row, was Zhao Feng able to win the last one as well?\nEveryone knew that Hou Yuan was Zhao Feng’s greatest opponent today.\nBeing ranked 3rd, Hou Yuan was one of the overlords of the outer disciples and he had even challenged cultivators who had reached the Ascended Realm.\nFrom a certain point of view, Hou Yuan’s strength had exceeded the Consolidated Realm.\n“Zhao Feng! You won’t have any chance facing me!”\nHou Yuan’s bulky and muscular figure shook the stage. Cracks like spider webs appeared on the hard pure black stone.\nIn just dropping on stage, Hou Yuan had already showed how strong he was.\nShoosh!\nHou Yuan’s clothes were thrown away, revealing his body. The aura he released could frighten away peak tier deadly beasts.\nSiiii!\nThe outer disciples all took in a cold breath and shock appeared in their eyes.\n“Aura close to a Lord tier deadly beast.”\nZhao Feng’s heart skipped a beat.\nCompared to half a month ago, Hou Yuan’s strength had increased. No wonder he was able to replace the original 3rd place.\nAfter all, Hou Yuan had entered the Clan earlier and had trained for a long time.\nIf he was able to go half a step further, he would be the first outer disciple to enter the Ascended Realm with his body in the past hundred years.\nCeng! Ceng! Hou Yuan closed in on Zhao Feng step by step. Small Golden Metal Fist!\nHou Yuan’s fist seemed to expand as a layer of gold covered it.\nZhao Feng’s left eye contracted slightly as his expression turned solemn. Boom… !\nThe moment the fist had been thrust out, Hou Yuan’s body and fist had appeared in front of Zhao Feng.\nThe explosive energy and speed of Hou Yuan surpassed the Hong brothers easily.\nThe spectating outer disciples stared in shock.\nHou Yuan’s fist could instantly kill any cultivator at the 9th rank of the Consolidated Realm.\nSilver Wall Mountain Opening!\nIn the nick of time, Zhao Feng’s strength exploded as well.\nFist clashed against fist, full of wildness and power. No tactic or skills were involved at all.\nAll the outer disciples heard a ‘Bang!’ before there ears trembled and they lost their hearing.\nTeng Teng Teng… Zhao Feng and Hou Yuan both retreated at once and left cracks on the ground.\nZhao Feng had retreated 9 steps before he stabilised his body, while Hou Yuan had only taken 8 steps.\nHou Yuan had gained the upper hand slightly, but this scene shocked the outer disciples below.\n“Zhao Feng wasn’t crushed by Hou Yuan, even though they were fighting head on… ?”\n“That guy also focuses on body strengthening and he is able to counter Hou Yuan!”\nDiscussion broke out nearby.\nThis was something that no one expected.\nThe most stunned person was Hou Yuan himself, he clearly knew how hard it was to strengthen one’s body. And it was hard to imagine how the youth in front of him, who was only 14-15 years, was able to reach such a level.\nOne had to know that his own age was 24-25, he was 10 years older than Zhao Feng.\nIf he couldn’t reach the Ascended Realm by 30, he would be thrown away by the Clan.\n“His body strengthening level has indeed reached a higher level than me.”\nZhao Feng’s expression was as calm as water as the power of his left eye opened.\nHis Silver Wall Technique focused on increasing power and defense.\nHou Yuan had trained in a body strengthening technique that wasn’t any worse than Silver Wall Technique and it had reached a higher level.\n“I never thought that you also focused on body strengthening and trained it to high level. But today, you will still lose.” Hou Yuan’s expression was cold as his muscles tensed.\nThrough his left eye, Zhao Feng realised that Hou Yuan’s inner strength and body strengthening technique both perfectly merged with his bones.\nCrack! Crack… !\nHou Yuan’s bones cracked as he released a terrifying aura.\nZhao Feng’s heart jumped, he had the feeling that he was fighting a Lord tier deadly beast.\nIt was hard to imagine what level Hou Yuan had reached with his body strengthening technique to be able to perfectly merge his inner strength and body together.\n“Gold Bronze Casting Body!” Hou Yuan’s aura suddenly rose another half a level as a golden, bronze coloured appeared on his body.\nAfter using this technique Gold Bronze Casting Body, Hou Yuan had the ability to challenge those at the Ascended Realm.\nSmall Gold Metal Fist! A golden fist thrust through the aira and enveloped Zhao Feng.\nThe speed was too fast. If it was under a normal situation, Zhao Feng wouldn’t be able to react in time. But at this moment, Zhao Feng’s left eye was opened to the max and he was able to block Hou Yuan’s lightning quick strike. Peng----\nZhao Feng’s body was sent back tens of yards. If it wasn’t because his Silver Wall Technique's forte was defense, the punch just then would’ve caused him to vomit blood.\nHou Yuan had forced Zhao Feng to the edge of the stage. If he fell off stage, it would mean that he lost.\nShua!\nZhao Feng’s figure was destroyed by a fist.\nHou Yuan had missed this time.\nFlowing Wind Stance! Smoking Transparent Step!\nZhao Feng merged the enlightenment from Flowing Wind Stance into his max level movement skill.\nInstantly, Zhao Feng’s speed skill reached its peak level. The comprehension gained from Illusion Fish Picture was merged more and more and Zhao Feng became closer to a fish.\nHou Yuan’s movement skill was his weakness when compared to Zhao Feng.\nMany times, he had been tricked by Zhao Feng and his attacks missed."

128.第128章
面对第三个对手洪四，赵峰略感到一丝阻力和棘手。
真正难缠的是，对方心态很平稳。 首先。
他承认不如赵峰！
有这个前提，他自然不会有任何轻敌，发挥百分之两百的力量，对抗赵峰。 其次。
洪三不求获胜。
在不求胜的情况下，洪三只求不过，不求获胜，自身的破绽和失误，控制到最小。
赵峰的身法虽然玄妙无穷，但洪三以静制动，求稳不求胜，不贸然攻击，很多次攻击，都是乱打，试探赵峰的实际位置。
“他虽然求稳不求胜，但只需几十招，我就能获胜。
赵峰身形一晃，又在洪三的正面现身。
面对平稳冷静的洪四，赵峰决定改变策略。 与其取巧获胜，消耗几十招，还不如拿出真正水准，以压倒性的实力取胜。
那一刹，赵峰全身气息，提升半个层次。 洪三顿时变色。
很多人大吃一惊，没想到赵峰在此前的战斗中，根本保留有余力。
也就是说，萧陨和洪三的战斗，没有让赵峰有什么消耗。
“怎么可能！
萧陨盯着挑战台上越发强大的赵峰，苍白的脸上，显出更多的挫败感。
点星一指！
赵峰毫无保留的施展超·圆满境界的《点星指》，即便没有融入四风式，那指劲破空如繁星闪烁的绚美，也是震撼心灵。
一道道点星指劲，拖拽着轰鸣刺啸，如同飞虫般，扑向洪三。
洪三面色苍白，催动半步脱凡境的雄浑内劲，周身甚至形成一层内劲气罩层，同时双臂猛然一挥。
泰岳无极！ 洪三双臂一挥，整个人身上腾起一股稳重如泰山、力量威能无极限的压迫感，沉厚广阔的气卷风流，迎向赵峰连绵不断的攻击。
二人之间，气波炸响，尘封石屑纷飞。
乍一看，这俨然是内功外放的比拼。 但持续几秒，洪四魁梧身形，闷哼一僵，连连倒退。
赵峰的实力，稳压对方一筹，以力拼力，顿时打开一个缺口。
点星一指！ 卷风式！
赵峰趁势追击，这一次融入卷风式，让《点星指》的威力，提升到一个全新层次。
那点星指拖拽着风卷雷鸣之声，一道道如繁星爆裂，那等攻击威能，甚至超出固体境层次的极限。
这一刻，谁也不得不承认，赵峰至少有稳定外门前五的实力，挑战前三，也有资格。
哇！
洪四坚持几招，吐出一口血，身上留下几处血洞，惨叫闷哼中，跳出挑战台。
按照策略，他是想拖延时间，消磨下赵峰的体力。 但不料，赵峰发动绝强力量，短时间内把他击败。
“我已经尽力了。”
洪四无奈的看了侯袁一眼。
侯袁面色漠然，镇定如山，传音道：“你已经逼迫赵峰使出全力，他也不是完全没消损。”
赵峰连胜三场后，场下引发轩然大波。
在今日挑战之前，谁也不曾预料，赵峰能强横如死，雷霆干脆的击败三个对手。
从目前局势来看，赵峰击败三个对手，都还算轻松，没有纠缠，没有苦战。
挑战胜利后，赵峰将取代洪四的名次。
“第四轮，排名第八‘赵峰’挑战第三名‘侯袁’。”
丘执事眼眸里，泛动着期待的神情。
连胜三场后，赵峰能否完成最后一轮挑战的胜利？
众人都知道，侯袁才是赵峰今日最大的对手。
外门第三，这几乎是外门霸主的地位，侯袁的实力，威震外门多年，甚至有挑战真正脱凡境的实力。
从某种程度上说，侯袁的实力，已经脱离固体九重的层次。
侯袁高大如金刚的身躯，重重落地，挑战台隐隐震动。
坚硬的纯黑岩石板上，呈现一丝丝蜘蛛网般的裂痕。
仅仅一个落地细节，展现出侯袁超越一般半步脱凡境的实力。
噗嗤！
侯袁的上衣震裂，露出铁疙瘩般的铁皮铜鼓，全身如铜铸金镀，体魄血肉中散发的气息，震慑生灵，足以吓走顶级凶兽。
嘶！
场上众多外门弟子，倒吸一口冷气，眼中透着惊骇。
“几乎接近王级凶兽的气息。”
赵峰心头一凛。
相比半月前，侯袁的实力，显然有提升，难怪能战胜原来的第三名。
毕竟侯袁入门更早，从小修习炼体功法，长达十几年的磨砺。
如果再往前踏半步，他就能成为晓月宗最近百年来，第一个以肉身入圣境的外门弟子。
蹬！ 侯袁一步步逼向赵峰，那股野蛮原始的力量冲击，达到惊悚的地步。
侯袁的拳头，仿佛扩张了一圈，迸发一层泛金光泽，在视野里不停的放大，有一种能充斥整个世界的错觉。
赵峰的左眼，霎时收缩，面色凝重。
在出拳的一刹，侯袁的身体和拳头，已经到达赵峰身前。
肉体力量的爆发，雄厚的内劲基础，让侯袁的速度，远超过先前的洪家兄弟。
在场众外门弟子，目瞪口呆。
侯袁那一拳的威力，完全能瞬间轰杀一名固体境九重，暴力如斯。
银壁开山！
赵峰在电光石火间，蓄积好的力量和内劲，也是瞬间爆发。
拳与拳的硬撼，充满野性暴力，以毫无技巧的方式，轰杀目标。
在场众外门弟子，只听“嗙轰”一声巨响，耳膜嗡嗡，气血翻腾，几乎在那一刹，失去听觉。
赵峰和侯袁，同时连连倒退，地面上坑洼裂痕不断蔓延。
赵峰倒退了九步，稳住身形，面色冷静如斯。
侯袁则退了八步，稍微一晃，眼中透着惊骇。
然而这一幕，让台下的外门弟子，惊疑大叫，一个个大跌眼镜。 “这赵峰和侯袁硬碰……竟然没落下风。”
“这家伙也是主修炼体，居然可以和侯袁抗衡。”
挑战台四周，轰动一片。
这是谁也没有料到的情况。
最惊骇的当属侯袁，他一身炼体功法，达到如斯境界，自然明白此中难度。 但无法想象，眼前一个十四五岁的少年，拥有接近他的炼体造诣。
要知道，他本人的年龄，达到二十五六，比赵峰大十余岁。
如果三十岁内，无法突破脱凡境，他将会被宗门抛弃。
“此人的炼体造诣，确实略胜我两分。”
赵峰沉静如水，左眼力量也缓缓开启。
他修炼的《银壁诀》，增幅力量体质，注重防御炼身。
侯袁的炼体功法，不输于《银壁诀》，但火候更深。
“赵峰，没想到你也是主修炼体，境界火候，甚至不输于我。 但今天，你必输无疑。”
赵峰左眼锁定下，发现侯袁的内劲与炼体功法，完美融合在血肉骨骼中。
咔吧！
侯袁全身骨骼一阵脆响，散发出更惊心的气息。
赵峰心头一跳，甚至有一种面临王级凶兽的错觉。
也不知道侯袁的炼体造诣，达到何等深度，将内劲与血肉骨骼的完美融合，成为一个整体。
侯袁身上气息，提升半个级别，体表流转一层金铜般的光泽，如同一尊金刚佛像。
施展“金铜铸体”绝技，侯袁拥有挑战脱凡一重天的实力。
惊魂爆响中，金色拳光划破虚空，闪电般笼罩赵峰。
那速度太快了，赵峰若是在正常情况下，可能无法反应。 这一刻，赵峰的左眼，也全力开启，运转《归元气诀》和《银壁诀》，挡住侯袁雷霆无敌的一拳。
若非他的《银壁诀》，擅长防御，刚才那一拳，足以让他吐血。
侯袁把赵峰逼到了挑战台边缘。
唰！
赵峰的身躯，被一拳轰灭。
这一次，侯袁扑空了。
烟波无影步！
赵峰把身法发挥到超·圆满境界，随风式的奥义，也是完全融入。
幻鱼图的奥义，一点点在的步法中呈现，赵峰的身法，越发如鱼得水。
侯袁的身法，相对自己来说，却是短板。
好几次，他都被赵峰的身法蒙骗，攻击落空。

Chapter 128 – Sweeping the outer disciples (2)
Zhao Feng felt a bit troubled when facing Hong San and although Hong San was stronger than Hong Si and Xiao Sun, this wasn’t the main reason.
It was because of his opponent's’ attitude.
Firstly, he had admitted he wasn’t as strong as Zhao Feng!
This meant that he wouldn’t look down on his opponent. On the contrary, he would use 200% of his power to fight Zhao Feng.
Apart from that, his aim wasn’t to win.
His only goal was to expend Zhao Feng’s energy. From the two points alone, Hong San would have almost no flaws.
Even though Zhao Feng’s movement skill was profound, Hong San didn’t hastily attack. Instead, he tried to find out where Zhao Feng’s actual position was.
“I can beat him in tens of moves… But then… ”
Zhao Feng’s figure flashed and appeared in front of Hong San again.
Facing the calm Hong San, Zhao Feng decided to change his tactics. Instead of using skill, he would use absolute strength to suppress him.
Zhao Feng took in a light breath and released his aura. Instantly, Zhao Feng’s aura rose half a level, which made Hong San’s expression change.
Hou Yuan’s pupil contracted as he watched from below. A lot of people were stunned, they didn’t expect Zhao Feng still to be holding back.
This meant that while fighting Xiao Sun and Hong Si, Zhao Feng didn’t expend much energy at all.
“Impossible! The amount of energy he can store is even more than me… ”
Xiao Sun stared at Zhao Feng, who was getting stronger with every moment, with a pale face.
One Lin Star Finger!
Zhao Feng used his max level Star Finger and even though he didn’t merge the 4 Wind Stances into it this time, the power still shocked the crowd. Boom! Boom! Boom… !
Streak after streak of azure light swept towards Hong San like a flock of birds.
Hong San’s face was pale white as he circulated his half-step Ascended Ream inner strength and spread a defensive barrier out.
Limitless Mountain! Hong San spread out his arms and his aura turned as stable and deep as Mount Tai as it clashed with Zhao Feng’s attacks. Peng----------------
An explosion sounded between the two as rocks and dust were sent flying.
From the looks of it, this was a battle of inner strength. But after a few seconds, Hong San grunted and was pushed back.
While using his full strength, a flaw had appeared and Zhao Feng had taken advantage of it.
One Line Star Finger! Tornado Stance!
Zhao Feng kept on attacking while he had the advantage and after the merging of the Tornado Stance, the power rose to another level. Pew! Pew! Qiu… !
The streaks of light were like a meteor shower and the power had exceeded the limits of the Consolidated Realm. The watching outer disciples stared with open mouths.
At this moment, they had to admit Zhao Feng could be ranked in the top 5 and have the right to challenge 3rd place.
“Wah!”
Hong San was only able to block a few moves before he spat out a mouthful of blood. Even though he tried his best just to expend Zhao Feng’s energy, he still lost horribly.
According to his original plan, he was to waste time and waste Zhao Feng’s energy. But he didn’t expect the latter to use one of his best moves and beat him in such a short amount of time.
“I tried my best.”
Hong San looked helplessly towards Hou Yuan.
Hou Yuan’s expression was still calm: “You’ve already forced Zhao Feng to use all his strength, so he should have expended a bit of energy.”
The spectators went crazy as Zhao Feng won his 3rd battle.
Before today, none of them would have thought that Zhao Feng would be able to take care of three opponents so quickly and efficiently.
From the current situation, it seemed that Zhao Feng won his fights pretty easily. There was no hard fought battles.
After beating Hong San, Zhao Feng replaced his rank.
“The fourth challenge: Zhao Feng ranked 8th vs Hou Yuan ranked 3rd.”
Expectations flashed in Deacon Qiu’s eyes.
After winning 3 battles in a row, was Zhao Feng able to win the last one as well?
Everyone knew that Hou Yuan was Zhao Feng’s greatest opponent today.
Being ranked 3rd, Hou Yuan was one of the overlords of the outer disciples and he had even challenged cultivators who had reached the Ascended Realm.
From a certain point of view, Hou Yuan’s strength had exceeded the Consolidated Realm.
“Zhao Feng! You won’t have any chance facing me!”
Hou Yuan’s bulky and muscular figure shook the stage. Cracks like spider webs appeared on the hard pure black stone.
In just dropping on stage, Hou Yuan had already showed how strong he was.
Shoosh!
Hou Yuan’s clothes were thrown away, revealing his body. The aura he released could frighten away peak tier deadly beasts.
Siiii!
The outer disciples all took in a cold breath and shock appeared in their eyes.
“Aura close to a Lord tier deadly beast.”
Zhao Feng’s heart skipped a beat.
Compared to half a month ago, Hou Yuan’s strength had increased. No wonder he was able to replace the original 3rd place.
After all, Hou Yuan had entered the Clan earlier and had trained for a long time.
If he was able to go half a step further, he would be the first outer disciple to enter the Ascended Realm with his body in the past hundred years.
Ceng! Ceng! Hou Yuan closed in on Zhao Feng step by step. Small Golden Metal Fist!
Hou Yuan’s fist seemed to expand as a layer of gold covered it.
Zhao Feng’s left eye contracted slightly as his expression turned solemn. Boom… !
The moment the fist had been thrust out, Hou Yuan’s body and fist had appeared in front of Zhao Feng.
The explosive energy and speed of Hou Yuan surpassed the Hong brothers easily.
The spectating outer disciples stared in shock.
Hou Yuan’s fist could instantly kill any cultivator at the 9th rank of the Consolidated Realm.
Silver Wall Mountain Opening!
In the nick of time, Zhao Feng’s strength exploded as well.
Fist clashed against fist, full of wildness and power. No tactic or skills were involved at all.
All the outer disciples heard a ‘Bang!’ before there ears trembled and they lost their hearing.
Teng Teng Teng… Zhao Feng and Hou Yuan both retreated at once and left cracks on the ground.
Zhao Feng had retreated 9 steps before he stabilised his body, while Hou Yuan had only taken 8 steps.
Hou Yuan had gained the upper hand slightly, but this scene shocked the outer disciples below.
“Zhao Feng wasn’t crushed by Hou Yuan, even though they were fighting head on… ?”
“That guy also focuses on body strengthening and he is able to counter Hou Yuan!”
Discussion broke out nearby.
This was something that no one expected.
The most stunned person was Hou Yuan himself, he clearly knew how hard it was to strengthen one’s body. And it was hard to imagine how the youth in front of him, who was only 14-15 years, was able to reach such a level.
One had to know that his own age was 24-25, he was 10 years older than Zhao Feng.
If he couldn’t reach the Ascended Realm by 30, he would be thrown away by the Clan.
“His body strengthening level has indeed reached a higher level than me.”
Zhao Feng’s expression was as calm as water as the power of his left eye opened.
His Silver Wall Technique focused on increasing power and defense.
Hou Yuan had trained in a body strengthening technique that wasn’t any worse than Silver Wall Technique and it had reached a higher level.
“I never thought that you also focused on body strengthening and trained it to high level. But today, you will still lose.” Hou Yuan’s expression was cold as his muscles tensed.
Through his left eye, Zhao Feng realised that Hou Yuan’s inner strength and body strengthening technique both perfectly merged with his bones.
Crack! Crack… !
Hou Yuan’s bones cracked as he released a terrifying aura.
Zhao Feng’s heart jumped, he had the feeling that he was fighting a Lord tier deadly beast.
It was hard to imagine what level Hou Yuan had reached with his body strengthening technique to be able to perfectly merge his inner strength and body together.
“Gold Bronze Casting Body!” Hou Yuan’s aura suddenly rose another half a level as a golden, bronze coloured appeared on his body.
After using this technique Gold Bronze Casting Body, Hou Yuan had the ability to challenge those at the Ascended Realm.
Small Gold Metal Fist! A golden fist thrust through the aira and enveloped Zhao Feng.
The speed was too fast. If it was under a normal situation, Zhao Feng wouldn’t be able to react in time. But at this moment, Zhao Feng’s left eye was opened to the max and he was able to block Hou Yuan’s lightning quick strike. Peng----
Zhao Feng’s body was sent back tens of yards. If it wasn’t because his Silver Wall Technique's forte was defense, the punch just then would’ve caused him to vomit blood.
Hou Yuan had forced Zhao Feng to the edge of the stage. If he fell off stage, it would mean that he lost.
Shua!
Zhao Feng’s figure was destroyed by a fist.
Hou Yuan had missed this time.
Flowing Wind Stance! Smoking Transparent Step!
Zhao Feng merged the enlightenment from Flowing Wind Stance into his max level movement skill.
Instantly, Zhao Feng’s speed skill reached its peak level. The comprehension gained from Illusion Fish Picture was merged more and more and Zhao Feng became closer to a fish.
Hou Yuan’s movement skill was his weakness when compared to Zhao Feng.
Many times, he had been tricked by Zhao Feng and his attacks missed.

"value": "Chapter 128: Rabbit-Cheetah Duo!\nChapter 128: Rabbit-Cheetah Duo!\nLing Lan did not have to question Number Three any further on how to input these preset control commands. This was because Ling Lan already knew that, other than the fixed preset control mode, there was also an instantaneous preset control mode. The latter mode would accept extremely brief input, and would only be effective for one usage.\nThis was a type of control method which was extremely well-suited for emergency battle. However, many people had forgotten that mecha came with this function, because this instantaneous preset control mode required a lot from the operator. Many people did not possess the ability to handle this type of control method, so most mecha operators still found it easier to just depend on their own adaptive ability and control the mecha directly.\nInstantaneous preset control mode needed the mecha operator using it to have a certain level of predictive ability — the so-called awakened 'sixth sense' of this world. Meanwhile, in the learning space, this ability was named 'Animal Instinct', and was a lower-average standard innate perception ability.\nIn fact, Ling Lan's innate talent of Profound Insight was the best among the other innate talents in the same category. As such, the instantaneous preset control mode was extremely appropriate for Ling Lan — this was why Instructor Number Three had made it a point to bring it up.\nDuring this time, Little Four had gradually siphoned in data he had collected from the real world into the learning space, giving the instructors within it a general understanding of the technological environment Ling Lan was living in. Thus, they knew that this world was extremely behind with regards to awakened perception abilities at the moment, and even in terms of mecha control, this world was N-levels worse than that of their own world.\nSo, the instantaneous preset control mode, which was familiar to all the residents of the learning space, was rather neglected in this world. Here, with the exception of those who had awakened the sixth sense, other common mecha operators would be utterly clueless about this function on their mecha, and even many instructors of mecha control may not remember the existence of this function. This was another reason why Instructor Number Three had stepped up to demonstrate mecha control in person.\nLing Lan understood what Instructor Number Three intended with his guidance. In contrast with the instructor's control, she could clearly see that she was still lacking in many areas, whether it be awareness, control, or prediction. Ling Lan knew this was all because her basics were still below standard, so she didn't choose to learn a new control method, merely continuing to train her basic control. The only exception was that she began including the usage of instantaneous preset control mode in her training. Of course, this was extremely difficult. Many times, Ling Lan's attempts ended in failure, but Ling Lan still continued tirelessly in her attempts to learn it.\nIn this manner, several months passed. Ling Lan's life fell into a regulated routine — at dawn and at dusk, she set aside two blocks of time to train her basic physical skills; whether it was the scout academy's or the one taught by the learning space, she wouldn't allow them to fall behind. At the same time, she also didn't forget to train her hand speed. By this time, she had already broken through the limit of three marbles 1 , and was now able to train with four marbles at a time.\nHowever, just like when she had been training with three marbles, she could not sustain the activity for long. Still, Ling Lan wasn't anxious — she remained patient and practised every day, improving bit by bit. It was a victory as long as she could sustain activity for just a little bit longer than the day before.\nMeanwhile, during the day, she would attend classes at the academy if there were classes, and if there weren't, she would enter the virtual world to practise her mecha control there. Of course, Ling Lan would habitually check to see if that cheetah mecha was at the mecha training hall. Anyone would have a lasting impression of the first stranger they met in the virtual world who also helped them out.\nOf course, there was another reason Ling Lan was looking for the other — every time she saw the other's training movements, she would somehow gain some measure of insight from it. In return, the other seemed to be of a similar mindset; and so, the two of them often ended up training together without planning it in advance. Although they still did not speak much to one another, they knew each other very well, just like old bosom friends. By the end, they could even tell with just a look or a motion what the other wanted to do.\nMeanwhile, Little Four was also very busy. One of his duties was to find time to fake Ling Lan's virtual appearance to help his boss complete some of those scout academy daily missions. Ling Lan couldn't very well stay offline for so long, right? Besides that, Little Four also had to help Boss to maintain her relationships with Qi Long and the others. There were times when he even had to pretend to be Ling Lan to join them in clearing some group missions. Luckily, Little Four had grown up with Ling Lan and had hung around her all this time, so he was extremely familiar with Ling Lan's mannerisms and tone of voice, managing to carry it off without raising any suspicion among her companions.\nOn top of that, Little Four still had to prevent the cheetah mecha operator from getting too close — Little Four firmly believed that someone being so nice for no reason, must definitely be hiding some evil intention. The cheetah mecha operator was treating his boss so well, so he must have some nefarious intentions. Little Four had to protect his boss!\nOf course, all this was just Little Four's opinion; Ling Lan completely disagreed. From what she could sense, the cheetah mecha operator was extremely mature, and he was also an operator who was deeply obsessed with mecha control. Moreover, the other did not even know whether she was a boy or a girl, so what sort of nefarious intentions could he have?\nOf course, Ling Lan's words drew Little Four's derision. He mocked her, saying that she was just fooling herself — just think about it, all of the newbies in the mecha training hall were basically all youths of about 16 years of age ... why would a mature adult be here? And youths were the hardest people to figure out — who knew what kind of insanity they would involve themselves in next?\nNeither one could convince the other, but Ling Lan did not take any of this to heart. She continued to 'coincidentally' meet the cheetah mecha (Little Four was the main contributor to this; he felt that it was still safest to keep someone dangerous close where he could watch him) and train together in silence. At times, Ling Lan would feel as if she had gained some breakthrough and enter the mecha training hall to take the basic assessment again. At those times, there would always be a cheetah mecha watching from the side. Similarly, every time the cheetah mecha retook the assessment, as long as Ling Lan was online then, she would also choose to watch from the side.\nWith all of this, Ling Lan felt that the cheetah mecha should be considered one of her friends now. Which was why she had been so happy when she had heard what Little Four had to say about the other's ability. In her mind, only when both parties felt the same could a relationship be called a true friendship.\nThus, Ling Lan decided to tell the other her secret of training hand speed. \"It actually isn't much of a secret. Back in the real world, you just need to place some marbles in your palm and move them around quickly without letting them fall, that's all.\"\nLing Lan's words caused the cheetah mecha to be extremely taken aback — he had never expected Ling Lan to just reveal her inherited secret just like that. He could not help but be worried for her, saying, \"Aren't you afraid of drawing the displeasure of your teacher's sect? Don't reveal this kind of secret so easily in future.\"\n\"Displeasure? It shouldn't.\" Ling Lan lifted her head as she thought about it. She did not think her dad would be so stingy and mind that much, so she said, \"Don't worry about it. I'm only telling you about this, because you're my friend.\"\nThe cheetah mecha operator clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth — only by doing so could he push down the shame and guilt he felt to the bottom of his heart. After a long beat of silence, he finally managed to eke out two words, \"Thank you!\"\nLing Lan knew nothing about the struggle within the cheetah mecha operator's heart right now. She was in a great mood, because she believed that with the help of the training method to increase hand speed, the cheetah mecha would definitely continue to stay here and train his basic control. With a friend by her side, training wasn't as boring as it could be.\n********\nIn the following period of time, inside the mecha training hall, a rabbit mecha and a cheetah mecha were often seen training their basic control together, taking assessments together, studying control techniques together ... they became known as the famous rabbit-cheetah duo of the mecha training hall.\nThe rabbit-cheetah duo's skilful and almost flawlessly perfect movements attracted the respect and admiration of all the mecha newbies who walked through the mecha training hall's doors. Gradually, they gained reputation among the newbies; every one of their assessments would draw countless spectators. These spectators were witness to the birth of Ling Lan's and the other's increasingly high ranking on the leaderboard. They saw off batch after batch of old newbies, and welcomed group after group of fresh newbies.\nDue to these newbies both young and old, talk of the rabbit-cheetah duo spread even further and became even more legendary. In the end, rumours about them spread far and wide throughout the entire virtual world — saying that two experts of mecha control were unwilling to graduate from the planet Azure mecha training hall, because they wanted to surpass the old time and make a new record.\nOf course, this rumour was greeted with scorn by most people. Almost everyone thought that the rabbit-cheetah duo were obviously chasing a pipe dream — they would never be able to break the old record. This was because the current best record of the basic control assessment was set ten years ago, by none other than the god-class operator Ling Xiao. Of course, back then, Ling Xiao still hadn't become a god-class operator yet.\nStill, even so, his result wasn't something an average person could break. After repeated studies by specialists, they confirmed that Ling Xiao's result had already achieved the pinnacle of basic mecha control. Only if someone were to use mecha of special-class and above, combined with the control skills of an ace operator or better, then there might be the low possibility of surpassing it. (Because the mecha used for basic control assessments were the most primitive three types of mecha, the crudeness of the mecha had also limited Ling Xiao's performance.)\nBut is this possible? Everyone knew that all the mecha training hall provided were the most primitive mecha; no one could get their hands on any better mecha. So, there would never be a scenario where, using the same type of mecha, someone would be able to break Ling Xiao's record ...\nLing Lan did not know that they had swept the whole virtual world into animated discussion. After she and the cheetah mecha operator had thoroughly studied and experimented with their bestial mecha, they had then switched to avian mecha, and had finally chosen humanoid mecha.\nWhen they had become fully proficient in the basic control of all three main types of mecha, Ling Lan used a humanoid mecha in the learning space to pass the tunnel mission. After she passed, the long-absent Instructor Number Three appeared once more, and this time, he immediately told Ling Lan to make preparations — tomorrow, she would officially begin following him to learn the beginner level techniques and movements.\n(A certain pretty boy youth who had just logged off was cheering himself on at the same time: to be the strongest mecha operator in this world, he could not lose to anyone else. Since the rabbit mecha could train so tirelessly in the basic controls without complaint, then he must be able to do it too! He must hold on and persist!)\nIt had to be said that, at times, some misunderstandings were extremely beautiful. The two of them felt that the other's attitude was very serious and very tenacious, and so they both did not want to lose to the other ... in this way, the two of them persisted together through mastering these extremely dry and boring basic mecha control exercises!"

第一百二十八章：兔豹组合！
第一百二十八章：兔豹组合！
凌兰无需再问三号什么时候输入这些预控命令的，因为凌兰很清楚，除了固定的预控模式，还有一种即时性预控模式，就是超短时间输入，然后一次性运用之后就失效的东西。
这是一种极其适合紧急战时的操控方法，不过很多人已经忘记机甲拥有这项功能，因为即时性预控模式，对操控者的要求非常高，很多人都不具备掌握这项操控的能力，所以大部分的机甲士还是选择临场应变，直接操控机甲来的更容易些。
即时性预控模式，要求操控他的机甲士必须具备一定的预测能力，这个世界所谓的第六感觉醒。 而在学习空间中，被称为兽觉，是一种中下水准的天赋觉醒能力。
事实上，凌兰的洞悉天赋，是属于觉醒天赋中最为顶尖的，即时性预判模式十分适合凌兰操控的，这也是三号导师特别想要提醒她的一点。
这段时间，小四逐渐将现实生活中的资料收集归纳到学习空间，让几位导师大致了解了凌兰身处的科技坏境，知道对于觉醒这块，现在这个世界还十分的落后，就连操控机甲方面，也比他们的世界也差上n个等级。
所以，在学习空间机甲上都能熟练运用的即时性预控模式，在这里，除了第六感觉醒的人会使用之外，其他普通机甲操控者根本不清楚机甲的这项能力，就连许多教导机甲操控的导师都想不起来了。 这也是三号导师出面操控机甲的最大原因。
凌兰明白了三号导师指导的用意，对比导师的操控，她知道了自己无论在意识、操控、预判方面都有很大的不足。 凌兰清楚这完全是基础还没过关的原因，所以她没有选择学习新的操控方法，而是继续练习基础操控，特别是开始尝试即时性预判模式的使用。
很多次凌兰都是以失败而告终，但凌兰依然孜孜不倦地尝试学习着。 就这样几个月下来，凌兰让自己的生活变得极为规律，清晨与傍晚两个时段，会锻炼她的基础体术，无论是童军学院的还是学习空间教导的，都不会落下。 同时也不会遗忘练习手速。
能同时练习四颗弹珠。 不过与三颗弹珠时一样，支持不了多长时间，凌兰也不着急，每天耐着性子一点点来。 只要比前一天支持的时间更久一点就是胜利。
而白天的时间，学院有课的时候就上课学习，没课的时候就到虚拟世界中练习机甲操控，当然凌兰很习惯去查看那架猎豹机甲是不是在机甲训练馆中，对外面的虚拟世界第一个接触并给予帮助的陌生人，任何人都会印象深刻的。
于是两人十分有默契地在一起练习。 虽然彼此不说话，可却十分地熟悉对方，就好像对方是一个知心老友一般，到最后，甚至一个眼神一个动作就能知道对方想要做什么。
小四也很忙。
不仅如此，小四还要防备猎豹机甲操控者的接近，小四坚信，无事献殷勤，非奸即盗。
当然小四的观点，凌兰并不认同。 在她的感觉之中，猎豹操控者十分成熟，也是一个痴迷于机甲操练的操控者，再加上，对方根本不知道她是男是女，还能奸什么盗呢？
当然凌兰的这些话惹来了小四的嘲笑，说凌兰明显在自欺欺人，想想机甲训练馆里的菜鸟们，基本上都是十六岁上下的少年，哪里来的成熟成年人？ 而且少年是最难琢磨的人，谁知道下一秒他们会发什么疯呢。
两人谁也说服不了谁，凌兰没将这件事放在心上，继续与猎豹机甲默契地相逢（小四功劳最大，他认为有危险的人还是放在眼皮底下比较安全），默契地一起练习，有时候凌兰感觉自己有所突破感悟后，就会到机甲训练馆中进行基础考核。 这个时候，总有一架猎豹机甲在一旁观摩，同样，每次猎豹机甲考核时，只要凌兰在线，也会选择在一旁观摩。
一来二去，凌兰认为，猎豹机甲应该算是自己的朋友了。 所以才会因为听到小四的那些话后心情大悦，在她的认识中，相知相交才算得上是真正的朋友。
所以凌兰决定将练习手速的秘密告诉对方：“其实也没什么秘密，只是在现实中，找一些弹珠放在掌心中练习，不要让它们出来就是了。”
凌兰的话让猎豹机甲十分惊愕，他没想到凌兰真的会将这种师承秘密说了出来，不免担心起来说道：“难道你不怕引起师门的不满吗？ 以后别将这种秘密随便说出来。”
应该不会吧。” 凌兰抬头想了想，觉得自家老爸应该不会那么小气，于是道，“放心，这件事情我只跟你说，因为你是我的朋友。” 猎豹操控者狠狠地握了握双拳，咬紧牙关。
这才将满心的愧疚压入心底，他沉默了一下才艰难地挤出两个字：“谢谢！”
凌兰并不知道猎豹操控者此刻心中的纠结，她心情很好，因为她相信，有了提高手速的练习方法，猎豹机甲肯定还会留在这里练习基础操控。 有个朋友陪着一起练，就不会显得那么无聊了。
接下去的时间里。
机甲训练馆中一架兔子机甲。 一架猎豹机甲经常在一起练习基础操控，一起进行考核，一起研究操控的技巧，变成了机甲训练馆有名的兔豹组合。
渐渐地。 他们在菜鸟们有了声望，他们每一场的考核都会吸引无数的旁观者旁观，他们也见证了凌兰两人越来越高的排名记录产生，他们送走了一批又一批的老菜鸟又迎来了一簇一簇新出来的小菜鸟。
因为这些新老菜鸟们，兔豹组合的事迹流传地更加广阔传奇了，到最后，蔚蓝星机甲训练馆中有两个机甲操练高手不肯毕业，想刷新最新通关纪录的小道消息传遍了整个虚拟网络世界。 当然这个小道消息大部分人都十分唾弃，嗤之以鼻的。
他们永远刷新不了新的记录。 因为基础操练考核的纪录保持者，正是十几年前神级师士凌霄创造的。 当然当时凌霄还不是神级师士。
专家曾反复研究，确认凌霄的成绩已经达到了基础机甲操控的最极限，除非有人使用特级以上的机甲。 再加上王牌师士以上水准，才有那么几分可能突破（因为基础操控的机甲是最原始的三大类机甲，机甲的粗劣也限制了凌霄的发挥）。
可这可能吗？ 众所周知，机甲训练馆里的机甲是最原始的，没有人能够搞到更好一点的机甲。
凌兰可不知道整个虚拟世界会因为他们而闹得沸沸扬扬，她与猎豹操控者将兽型机甲玩了个通透之后，又换成了飞鸟型机甲，最后才选择了人形机甲。
三大类的机甲基础操控都练到了极限时候，凌兰在学习空间用人型机甲做完通关任务之后，许久不见的三号导师再次出现了，而这一次，三号导师直接开口，让凌兰准备一下，明天开始正式跟随他学习机甲的初级难度技巧动作。 凌兰听了差点振臂高呼，大笑三声终于解脱了。
可当她看到猎豹机甲操控者练习基础操控时态度是那么的认真，凌兰就不得不继续坚持下去。 （某个刚刚下线的美丽少年，同样暗暗地给自己打气加油：要做这个世界上最强的机甲操控者，就不能输给任何人。 既然兔子机甲他能毫不厌烦地苦练基础操控，那么自己也要做到，一定坚持下去！
不得不说，有时候，有些误会是极为美丽的，两人都以为对方的态度很认真很坚持，所以都不想输给对方，将这些极为枯燥的基础操控练习给坚持了下来！ 卡文了，而且这章是过渡章，没什么内容，亲们订阅什么地就随意了。

Chapter 128: Rabbit-Cheetah Duo!
Chapter 128: Rabbit-Cheetah Duo!
Ling Lan did not have to question Number Three any further on how to input these preset control commands. This was because Ling Lan already knew that, other than the fixed preset control mode, there was also an instantaneous preset control mode. The latter mode would accept extremely brief input, and would only be effective for one usage.
This was a type of control method which was extremely well-suited for emergency battle. However, many people had forgotten that mecha came with this function, because this instantaneous preset control mode required a lot from the operator. Many people did not possess the ability to handle this type of control method, so most mecha operators still found it easier to just depend on their own adaptive ability and control the mecha directly.
Instantaneous preset control mode needed the mecha operator using it to have a certain level of predictive ability — the so-called awakened 'sixth sense' of this world. Meanwhile, in the learning space, this ability was named 'Animal Instinct', and was a lower-average standard innate perception ability.
In fact, Ling Lan's innate talent of Profound Insight was the best among the other innate talents in the same category. As such, the instantaneous preset control mode was extremely appropriate for Ling Lan — this was why Instructor Number Three had made it a point to bring it up.
During this time, Little Four had gradually siphoned in data he had collected from the real world into the learning space, giving the instructors within it a general understanding of the technological environment Ling Lan was living in. Thus, they knew that this world was extremely behind with regards to awakened perception abilities at the moment, and even in terms of mecha control, this world was N-levels worse than that of their own world.
So, the instantaneous preset control mode, which was familiar to all the residents of the learning space, was rather neglected in this world. Here, with the exception of those who had awakened the sixth sense, other common mecha operators would be utterly clueless about this function on their mecha, and even many instructors of mecha control may not remember the existence of this function. This was another reason why Instructor Number Three had stepped up to demonstrate mecha control in person.
Ling Lan understood what Instructor Number Three intended with his guidance. In contrast with the instructor's control, she could clearly see that she was still lacking in many areas, whether it be awareness, control, or prediction. Ling Lan knew this was all because her basics were still below standard, so she didn't choose to learn a new control method, merely continuing to train her basic control. The only exception was that she began including the usage of instantaneous preset control mode in her training. Of course, this was extremely difficult. Many times, Ling Lan's attempts ended in failure, but Ling Lan still continued tirelessly in her attempts to learn it.
In this manner, several months passed. Ling Lan's life fell into a regulated routine — at dawn and at dusk, she set aside two blocks of time to train her basic physical skills; whether it was the scout academy's or the one taught by the learning space, she wouldn't allow them to fall behind. At the same time, she also didn't forget to train her hand speed. By this time, she had already broken through the limit of three marbles 1 , and was now able to train with four marbles at a time.
However, just like when she had been training with three marbles, she could not sustain the activity for long. Still, Ling Lan wasn't anxious — she remained patient and practised every day, improving bit by bit. It was a victory as long as she could sustain activity for just a little bit longer than the day before.
Meanwhile, during the day, she would attend classes at the academy if there were classes, and if there weren't, she would enter the virtual world to practise her mecha control there. Of course, Ling Lan would habitually check to see if that cheetah mecha was at the mecha training hall. Anyone would have a lasting impression of the first stranger they met in the virtual world who also helped them out.
Of course, there was another reason Ling Lan was looking for the other — every time she saw the other's training movements, she would somehow gain some measure of insight from it. In return, the other seemed to be of a similar mindset; and so, the two of them often ended up training together without planning it in advance. Although they still did not speak much to one another, they knew each other very well, just like old bosom friends. By the end, they could even tell with just a look or a motion what the other wanted to do.
Meanwhile, Little Four was also very busy. One of his duties was to find time to fake Ling Lan's virtual appearance to help his boss complete some of those scout academy daily missions. Ling Lan couldn't very well stay offline for so long, right? Besides that, Little Four also had to help Boss to maintain her relationships with Qi Long and the others. There were times when he even had to pretend to be Ling Lan to join them in clearing some group missions. Luckily, Little Four had grown up with Ling Lan and had hung around her all this time, so he was extremely familiar with Ling Lan's mannerisms and tone of voice, managing to carry it off without raising any suspicion among her companions.
On top of that, Little Four still had to prevent the cheetah mecha operator from getting too close — Little Four firmly believed that someone being so nice for no reason, must definitely be hiding some evil intention. The cheetah mecha operator was treating his boss so well, so he must have some nefarious intentions. Little Four had to protect his boss!
Of course, all this was just Little Four's opinion; Ling Lan completely disagreed. From what she could sense, the cheetah mecha operator was extremely mature, and he was also an operator who was deeply obsessed with mecha control. Moreover, the other did not even know whether she was a boy or a girl, so what sort of nefarious intentions could he have?
Of course, Ling Lan's words drew Little Four's derision. He mocked her, saying that she was just fooling herself — just think about it, all of the newbies in the mecha training hall were basically all youths of about 16 years of age ... why would a mature adult be here? And youths were the hardest people to figure out — who knew what kind of insanity they would involve themselves in next?
Neither one could convince the other, but Ling Lan did not take any of this to heart. She continued to 'coincidentally' meet the cheetah mecha (Little Four was the main contributor to this; he felt that it was still safest to keep someone dangerous close where he could watch him) and train together in silence. At times, Ling Lan would feel as if she had gained some breakthrough and enter the mecha training hall to take the basic assessment again. At those times, there would always be a cheetah mecha watching from the side. Similarly, every time the cheetah mecha retook the assessment, as long as Ling Lan was online then, she would also choose to watch from the side.
With all of this, Ling Lan felt that the cheetah mecha should be considered one of her friends now. Which was why she had been so happy when she had heard what Little Four had to say about the other's ability. In her mind, only when both parties felt the same could a relationship be called a true friendship.
Thus, Ling Lan decided to tell the other her secret of training hand speed. "It actually isn't much of a secret. Back in the real world, you just need to place some marbles in your palm and move them around quickly without letting them fall, that's all."
Ling Lan's words caused the cheetah mecha to be extremely taken aback — he had never expected Ling Lan to just reveal her inherited secret just like that. He could not help but be worried for her, saying, "Aren't you afraid of drawing the displeasure of your teacher's sect? Don't reveal this kind of secret so easily in future."
"Displeasure? It shouldn't." Ling Lan lifted her head as she thought about it. She did not think her dad would be so stingy and mind that much, so she said, "Don't worry about it. I'm only telling you about this, because you're my friend."
The cheetah mecha operator clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth — only by doing so could he push down the shame and guilt he felt to the bottom of his heart. After a long beat of silence, he finally managed to eke out two words, "Thank you!"
Ling Lan knew nothing about the struggle within the cheetah mecha operator's heart right now. She was in a great mood, because she believed that with the help of the training method to increase hand speed, the cheetah mecha would definitely continue to stay here and train his basic control. With a friend by her side, training wasn't as boring as it could be.
********
In the following period of time, inside the mecha training hall, a rabbit mecha and a cheetah mecha were often seen training their basic control together, taking assessments together, studying control techniques together ... they became known as the famous rabbit-cheetah duo of the mecha training hall.
The rabbit-cheetah duo's skilful and almost flawlessly perfect movements attracted the respect and admiration of all the mecha newbies who walked through the mecha training hall's doors. Gradually, they gained reputation among the newbies; every one of their assessments would draw countless spectators. These spectators were witness to the birth of Ling Lan's and the other's increasingly high ranking on the leaderboard. They saw off batch after batch of old newbies, and welcomed group after group of fresh newbies.
Due to these newbies both young and old, talk of the rabbit-cheetah duo spread even further and became even more legendary. In the end, rumours about them spread far and wide throughout the entire virtual world — saying that two experts of mecha control were unwilling to graduate from the planet Azure mecha training hall, because they wanted to surpass the old time and make a new record.
Of course, this rumour was greeted with scorn by most people. Almost everyone thought that the rabbit-cheetah duo were obviously chasing a pipe dream — they would never be able to break the old record. This was because the current best record of the basic control assessment was set ten years ago, by none other than the god-class operator Ling Xiao. Of course, back then, Ling Xiao still hadn't become a god-class operator yet.
Still, even so, his result wasn't something an average person could break. After repeated studies by specialists, they confirmed that Ling Xiao's result had already achieved the pinnacle of basic mecha control. Only if someone were to use mecha of special-class and above, combined with the control skills of an ace operator or better, then there might be the low possibility of surpassing it. (Because the mecha used for basic control assessments were the most primitive three types of mecha, the crudeness of the mecha had also limited Ling Xiao's performance.)
But is this possible? Everyone knew that all the mecha training hall provided were the most primitive mecha; no one could get their hands on any better mecha. So, there would never be a scenario where, using the same type of mecha, someone would be able to break Ling Xiao's record ...
Ling Lan did not know that they had swept the whole virtual world into animated discussion. After she and the cheetah mecha operator had thoroughly studied and experimented with their bestial mecha, they had then switched to avian mecha, and had finally chosen humanoid mecha.
When they had become fully proficient in the basic control of all three main types of mecha, Ling Lan used a humanoid mecha in the learning space to pass the tunnel mission. After she passed, the long-absent Instructor Number Three appeared once more, and this time, he immediately told Ling Lan to make preparations — tomorrow, she would officially begin following him to learn the beginner level techniques and movements.
(A certain pretty boy youth who had just logged off was cheering himself on at the same time: to be the strongest mecha operator in this world, he could not lose to anyone else. Since the rabbit mecha could train so tirelessly in the basic controls without complaint, then he must be able to do it too! He must hold on and persist!)
It had to be said that, at times, some misunderstandings were extremely beautiful. The two of them felt that the other's attitude was very serious and very tenacious, and so they both did not want to lose to the other ... in this way, the two of them persisted together through mastering these extremely dry and boring basic mecha control exercises!

"value": "Chapter 127: The Essence of Kingship\nTranslator: Mike Editor: Chrissy Chu Feng knew that his body constitution was drastically evolving. He even thought that the changes came too violent and swift! Almost in the blink of an eye, it felt as if his body had been liberated from some forms of constraints. He felt light and nimble; his god-like instinct became even sharper; and his five senses had never been so incisive!\nHis body was glowing like a sun. Chu Feng felt as if that his entrails were burning and that his skin was about to be ripped apart. Eye-piercing brilliance penetrated the skin through the pores, looking almost as if a bomb was about to be detonated inside him.\nThat long and golden hair of his danced in the wind as astonishing golden rays were ejected from his golden pupils. In terms of appearance, Chu Feng was nothing short of a demonic god.\nThis process felt peculiar and strange. It felt almost like a rebirth. Chu Feng felt liberated. For him, the past life felt as if it had been spent entirely inside a bottomless swamp; but now, he felt that he had broken away from that swamp and had been able to breathe the fresh air again! He felt free and natural.\n\"Is this how all the beast kings feel?\"\nChu Feng bowed his head in meditation while clenching his fist. He felt as if a sacred stove was burning an immortal column of fire inside him. The fire gave him heat, power, strength and the vitality of life.\nHe could pierce through a two-inch iron wall by just whimsically wielding his fist. There was no need for him to summon the tiger and the dragon form of Xingyi 12 forms in order to deliver such a power.\nIf he ran into Huang Yun and Kong Lin right now, he wouldn’t choose to run. He would stand firmly on his ground and fight to the bitter end. He had mastered the power of a beast king. He could now feel and understand the essence of kingship!\nChu Feng was in fine mettle. He looked down at himself, and finally he could see the inside of himself. His entrails were entangled with a few strands of light. Those strands looked almost like a bundle of chains shackling him to something else.\n\"I feel like I’ve shaken off my shackles and freed myself from the spiritual swamp, but now it seems like everything has only just started.\" Chu Feng came to realize that he was yet to be entirely liberated.\nEven after he shook off the \"shackles\" and struggled his way to land on \"dry lands\", the \"shackles\" were still being tied up to his entrails. He was still not a free man.\nThis was the so-called \"yoke\". One day, he would have to overcome them!\nChu Feng started to make sense of everything. Those so-called beast kings were all tied up to \"shackles\". Although few could match their might and power, they were still spiritually constrained.\nThe beast kings themselves all knew that there were still roads to travel and things to be done in order to break off from the \"shackles\". They could never be \"carefree\" until the shackles were gone!\nAwakening. Shackled. Carefree. These were the three realms!\nChu Feng could now understand the meaning of each of these three realms. The names suggested its meaning, clearly and distinctly.\nThe shackles inside him could only be discerned after the god-like instinct grew powerful and effective. The shackles had a riot of color, one color for each region, and each region consisted of its own unique force.\nGod-like instinct could capture the trace of the force that flowed within the shackles, and then it would trace out its shape.\nChu Feng attentively studied the shape of the shackles. Were people born with the spiritual shackles? Why did they look just like the physical shackles that were seen in everyday life? These shackles locked the important parts of the human body, tightly holding them in place.\n\"I’m on the same level as a quasi-king. I need to break off at least one single shackle in order to accomplish a thorough breakthrough.\"\nChu Feng bowed his head in meditation. He breathed rhythmically at a pace that was in synchronization with the rhythms specified by the special breathing technique, then he suddenly thrusted out his limbs; he was trying to cast off the shackles!\nUnfortunately, he didn’t succeed. He tottered and staggered, and he almost took a tumble. With his god-like instinct, Chu Feng could see the multi-colored shackles inside himself. The shackles were brightly shone as they were acting together to suppress him.\nThe brightly-colored shackles seemed to have been made of some form of sacred gold, tightly locking him in place, incapacitating him entirely.\nChu Feng admitted to himself that he was being greedy. To get rid of all the shackles was sheer fantasy at this stage. He had to be patient, or things might work against him to punish him for his greed.\nChu Feng did not get impatient about it; instead, slowly and steadily, he calmed himself down. He was still breathing at a rhythmic pace. Right now, to get every bit of pollen absorbed through his skin was what he needed to prioritize over anything else. The pollens had perhaps the greatest benefit to his body.\nThe huge flower on the tree was still pouring down trickles of golden mists, but the mists were becoming fainter and fainter until it was not enough to thoroughly surround him. His skin had absorbed most the pollens that were discharged earlier.\nOnly a few plumes of mists were left to be absorbed. Chu Feng opened his mouth and swallowed everything down his throat. Up to this point, Chu Feng felt perfectly content. Every single bit of catalyst had been taken in. Nothing was wasted.\nOn the golden tree, that flower began to wither away. The petals still looked golden, but the color was pale. When the wind breezed by, the petals shrivelled then slowly drifted down.\nChu Feng tried not to pay attention to the fruit. He stood still with both of his eyes closed. He tried to make sense of all the changes that had just taken place inside him; in the meantime, he was still trying to break away from the shackles.\n\"I have the might and power to do what I’m capable of is mostly thanks to the special breathing technique. My fist positions and my boxing styles were established on top of that. So maybe I should first let my arms break away from the shackles.\"\nHis body was tied up to the chains, but this had little to no effect on the power that his breathing technique could exert. However, if he could \"liberate\" one of his arms, the power of his fists would drastically improve!\nHe gazed at his right arm. There, a silver chain was running along the length of his arm.\nChu Feng carefully directed the flow of force inside himself. His chest felt surging with power, and his hands felt puffed up with strength! And when this was coupled by the special breathing technique, suddenly, his body was glowing with brilliant light. Rays that shone dazzlingly bright burst out of his body like the glow of a rising sun.\nHis right arm was burning like a scorching sun, giving this misty region a heavenly glow!\nIf this were seen by the beast kings, they would be startled and shocked.\nBecause to cast off the confinement of shackles required time. Usually, one would have to stay as a quasi-king for an extended period of time before he could move on to be a king. During this time, he would have to practice and consolidate all the newly-acquired powers in order to a lay a solid foundation for further evolution. This process was vital in many ways.\nBut Chu Feng wanted to press on to the finish without let-up. He wanted to become a king right here right now. He had no time to wait.\n\"PONG!\"\nSuddenly, his right arm burst into a dazzling beam of silver light. It felt as if something had erupted. Chu Feng tottered and staggered; he almost took a tumble.\nChu Feng looked cheerful. He succeeded!\nSuddenly, he could feel that his body had become even lighter. His right arm, especially, had been inundated in a sea of silver. A mysterious strand of force congregated in the blood vessel of his right arm, then this mass of energy was carried by the blood to circulate throughout his body. He felt nourished and nurtured.\n\"Huh?\" Chu Feng seemed to have been taken aback by something. He realized that the so-called silver shackle had been somehow degraded into a stream of liquid, flowing freely inside the veins. It had become a mass of energy. It flowed into the flesh, acting as some sort of supplement to nurture his body.\nRight now, his right arm was like a glowing medallion in the utter darkness.\nWhen everything finally settled, Chu Feng clenched his right fist and wielded it in the air, but suddenly, with a bang, it puffed out an unquenchable flame of silver fire, blazing like a silver globe.\n\"This is…\" He was surprised, but soon he realized that he had unlocked a magic power.\nEach time a creature cast off a shackle, a magic power was unlocked\nChu Feng remembered that during the fight with the Ash Wolf, the beast had once tried to cast off a shackle just before his death. In doing so, it wished that it would be granted with a magic power that would allow it to reach the state of nirvana. However, it did not succeed.\n\"What is my magic power?\" Chu Feng was eager to find out what he was capable of. When he gently moved his fist, it became surrounded by a scorching flame; it was a flame could melt gold and stones!\nAnd when his fist was being fiercely wielded, the flame evolved into an eye-piercing ray. The ray darted forward like a bolt of lightning. This ray proved its power by showing that it could penetrate all kinds of substance, let it be trees or giant boulders.\nThe magic power was very much the source of might and power of a beast king.\nBack when the Ash Wolf was severely injured, only three percent of what it used to be capable of was left inside it. The magic power it possessed was the ability to move sand and stones, but during the fight, its injury prevented it from using its power for an extended period of time. Otherwise, Chu Feng would have no ways of defeating it.\nWhile Chu Feng was left dumbfounded by the sight, he was very suspicious as well. \"Does the ancient martial arts always require the supplement of a magic power to exert its full potential?\"\nBANG!\nThere were a few giant boulders standing a few meters away from Chu Feng. They were all over ten meters tall, but the yak crushed and shattered them all.\nChu Feng now understood where the true power of a beast king lay!\n\"Awakening. It is only the stage where we begin to see the light. Shackled. It is the realm where once we break free, the potentials that lay beneath our skin would be fully unleashed. One could only be a king once he had had a thorough grasp of what he is capable of then fully exert it!\" Chu Feng said to himself.\nThis is the essence of kingship!\nMeanwhile, the golden tree had borne a golden seed. The seed shone like fire essence of the sun, golden and resplendent. It was a dazzling sight to behold.\nThe golden tree began to wither away until at last, only the seed was shining. The seed had drawn every bit of essence and vitality from the mother tree, and it was getting more and more gorgeous and splendid.\nChu Feng was astounded because he could see the shape of that seed. It looked completely different from what a seed should look like. It shaped like a little dagger, rather than a spherical ball.\nThe \"seed\" was only an inch long, but if it could grow any bigger, this seed would become a blade-less heavy sword!\n\"Is… is this even a seed?\" Chu Feng was flabbergasted. Was it even possible to have anything growing out of this \"seed\" ever again? Chu Feng was truly speechless.\nPUFF!\nAt last, the entire golden tree had rotten from the tip to its root. It became dust and ashes, then it was brought away by the gentle breezes.\nThis was quite a short sword. It had fallen to the ground. Golden luster was trickling down the spine of this little \"sword\".\nChu Feng picked it up and weighed it in his hand. This seed felt even heavier than some of the metals. What on earth was this? A seed or a weapon?\n\"A seed!\" Chu Feng said to himself with confidence after carefully examining this little piece of mystery in his hand, because he could still feel the thriving vitality of life that was flowing inside this thing.\nIt was hard to imagine the shape of the plant that this seed could become. Things looked rather unusual.\nHe gently ran the seed along the surface of a stone, and a scratch instantly became visible on the stone. The seed was too firm and solid.\nChu Feng was not quite worried about damaging the seed, because Yellow Ox had tried to eat the seed before and it ended rather horribly for the calf. Yellow Ox took a solid bite on the seed, and it almost took out the calf’s teeth. Although the seed might look insignificant, it had a lot of power buried under its innocent appearance.\n\"Could this seed be used as a flying sword?\" Chu Feng questioned.\nRight now, he was a bit inclined to believe the rumor that a seed could grow into a man after being buried underground. …\nInside the stone box, there lay the other two seeds. One of them looked black, shrivelled and pathetic, while the other looked brown and oval, looking as if it had been squashed.\nThe black seed seemed to have got a bit angry. Chu Feng’s god-like instinct had made it possible for him to sense of the mood change of this inanimate seed.\n\"Alright!\" Chu Feng went a bit wild with joy.\nThe first seed had brought him all kinds of pleasant surprise, so the remaining two might prove to be even more astonishing. But maybe, Chu Feng supposed, these two might be a lot pickier than the first one in terms of incubation environment.\nAs long as these seeds were not \"dead\", the opportunity was still there. One day, Chu Feng would somehow resuscitate the other two seeds and cultivate something out of them.\nChu Feng put all three seed inside the stone box. He carefully wrapped up the box and picked up the windbreaker that he had thrown on the ground. He turned around from the site and walked with big strides. Then, he suddenly sped up his pace to see how fast he could travel.\nSuddenly, he felt as if he had broken through the barrier of air; in the blink of an eye, he had travelled more than a few hundred meters. Loud bangs exploded behind him. He had broken the sound barrier!\nThree hundred and eight meters in one second!\nThis was the normal speed of a beast king. Normally speaking, those who had reached this level could all travel at the speed of sound. Such swiftness set a lot of requirements on a man’s physical body. An ordinary man would not be able to endure the force he experienced as they travelled at such great speed. They would have their own muscle ripped and flesh torn apart, turning them into a pile of mince.\nChu Feng could feel the power and might that had been granted to him. He felt confident. He faced due north, looking into the distance. It felt almost as if he could see the city of Shuntian through the dense fog around him. It’s time for revenge!"

第一百二十七章
楚风知道，体质在急骤进化，太迅猛了！ 一瞬间，身体像是挣脱某种束缚，整个人都轻灵了，神觉敏锐，五感惊人！
他浑身发光，像是一轮金色的太阳焚烧着，甚至要炸开了一般，金色光束一道又一道从肌体内迸发出。
那突然暴涨的长发，带着金色光泽，随风飘舞了起来，他的瞳孔中射出两道惊人的光束，如同一尊神魔。
楚风浑身舒泰，所有毛孔都张开了，疯狂的吞噬周围的生命精气，至于碗口大的灿烂花朵中倾泻下来的金色雾霭，更是源源不断地被他吸收。 他有一种感觉，过去像是生活在泥沼中，而今挣脱出来，现在整个人空灵了，瞬间自由！
“王级的力量吗？”
楚风低头，握紧拳头，他觉得体内如藏着一口不朽的神炉，为他提供力量，释放蓬勃生命之力。
现在他随意挥出一拳，就能击穿两尺厚的钢铁墙壁，根本不用专门施展形意拳中的龙虎争霸绝招。
他体内的力量，刚猛霸道之极！ 如果现在他再跟孔林和黄云相遇，绝不会逃，他也掌握了这种力量，王级的力量！ 同时，他比那两人的神觉更强！
他精神饱满，内视自我，终于看到自身的真实情况，整具躯体有几层光缠绕，那像是铁链绑在身上。
“我已经觉得挣脱束缚，犹如从泥沼中脱困，可是现在看来，那才是起步阶段。”
楚风醒悟。 哪怕离开“泥沼”，挣脱到“岸上”，却发现身上还有一条又一条坚固不朽的“铁链”，捆着自身。
那是就所谓的“枷锁”，终有一天需要劈开！
此时，楚风深刻理解到，所谓的兽王等都戴着“枷锁”，虽然而今都战力惊世，纵横天下无匹。
但它们自身都知道，前方还有路要走，不用谁教导，也明白要挣脱一身“枷锁”，才能得享真正的逍遥！
觉醒，枷锁，逍遥，三大境界！
楚风对这三境彻底明了，名字阐释到位，非常清晰。
体内缠缚的枷锁，唯有神觉强大后才能洞察，它们色彩斑斓，不同区域颜色不同，是各种神秘的能量构建的。 一般的人根本看不见！
神觉能捕捉这种能量气息，将它们描绘出来。
楚风仔细观察，这是先天生于人体内的吗？ 为何跟真实的枷锁很像，如同金属锁链般，捆着人体主要部位。
“我现在是准王境界，需要挣断一条枷锁，才算真正的突破。”
准王境界，力量已经比肩王级生物，所差的是神觉、速度等！ 楚风调整自我，运转特别的呼吸法，而后猛力舒展躯体，想要挣断束缚！
可惜，没有成功，他一个踉跄，险些摔倒。 他以神觉内视，可以看到那些斑斓的枷锁，共同发光，在一起镇压他。 一条又一条锁链绷紧，压制他整具躯体。
斑斓能量像是不同颜色的神金，一根又一根，锁着他。
楚风知道自己贪心了，怎么可能一下子挣断所有枷锁，那不现实，需要有所选择才行。
他没有着急，而是沉静下来，运转呼吸法，先将这里的花粉吸收再说，这对他的身体有莫大的好处。
树体上，那海碗大的花朵，倾泻出的金色雾霭越来越淡，已经不能包裹楚风，全被他的肌体吸收了。
到最后只剩下几缕，他张口间，直接一口吞了下去，至此楚风心满意足，所有触媒都已入体，没有一点浪费。
黄金树上，那朵花开始凋谢，一瓣又一瓣，带着淡金光泽，随风干枯，飘落而下。 在那里，有果实成型，逐渐生长！
楚风不去理会，他站在这里，闭上眼睛，默默体会自身的变化，准备挣断其中一处的枷锁。
“我的一身本领主要是因为特殊的呼吸法，然后辅以拳法，那么挣开一条手臂上的枷锁，或许是最好的选择。”
身体缠绕着斑斓锁链，对呼吸法没有什么影响，可如果“解放”一条手臂的话，那么的他拳印威力会暴涨！
他内视右臂，那里有一条银色的枷锁，像是在禁锢着臂膀。
楚风体内力量澎湃，运转特别的呼吸法，一刹那间而已，他通体发光，刺目的光束一道又一道迸发。
尤其是右臂，如同骄阳焚烧，照亮这片迷雾区！
如果被其他兽王看到，一定会震惊。
因为，挣断枷锁是需要时间的，一般来说达到准兽王境界就需要巩固了，不能一蹴而就。
楚风一鼓作气，想在今日彻底成为王级强者，不愿再等下去了。
“砰！”
最终，他的右臂爆发出刺目的银光，像是有什么东西炸开了，他整个人都一个踉跄，险些一头栽倒在那里。
楚风露出喜色，他成功了！
一刹那，他觉得身体又轻灵了，尤其是右臂那里，弥漫出的银色光辉，瞬间涌向全身各处，滋养肌体。
“嗯？” 他露出异色，所谓的银色枷锁，最终化成神秘能量，融入他的血肉中，成为某种补充。
毫无疑问，右臂那里银光最强盛！
直到一切宁静下来，楚风握紧右拳，尝试挥动，结果噗的一声，喷薄出一片白色的光焰，很炽盛。
“这是……”他吃惊，而后马上意识到，他开启了近乎神通般的本领。
任何生物，每次挣断一道枷锁，都会开启某种相应的本领，近乎神通般。
当日，苍狼王临死前就曾尝试挣断某一道枷锁，想开启涅槃神通，但最后失败了。
“我这是什么本领？”
楚风摸索，轻轻挥拳时，是烈焰，竟然能焚金熔石！ 当他猛力挥动时，则化成刺目的光束，笔直向前，犹如闪电，能洞穿各种物质，威力极强。
他深刻了解到，兽王级生物的强大，开启这种近乎神通般的本领后，实力着实大增。
当初，苍狼王被重创，一身实力只剩下百分之三左右，无法持久动用它那掌控土石的本领，不然的话楚风根本没戏，杀不了它。 “光、焰、闪电，这像是一种光明的力量。”
随后，他更是施展大力牛魔拳，结果拳印挥出后，一头发光的莽牛，恐怖无边，踏裂山地，冲了出去。
轰！
不远处，那里有几块巨石，都有十几米高，结果被轻易撞成齑粉。
楚风意识到王级生物真正的强悍所在了！
“觉醒，只是如梦方醒。 枷锁，开启自身潜能，体悟到这种真谛，才算是真正的高手！”
这是王级真谛！
这个时候，金色树体上结出一颗种子，仿佛弥漫着太阳火精，金黄而盛烈，十分灿烂。
并且，整株树体开始干枯，只有种子那里发光，并且它在吸收母株全部的精粹，越发的绚烂。
楚风愕然，因为他看清那枚种子的样子，跟以往截然不同，它不像是种子，形似一柄小剑。
它只有一寸长，如果放大的话，就像是无锋的重剑！
“这……还是种子吗？” 楚风发呆，下一次还能种下去吗？
噗！
最后，整株黄金树腐朽，在这里碎掉，归于尘土，彻底消散。
一枚小剑，实在短小，落在地上，流淌金色光泽。
楚风捡了起来，入手沉甸甸，比一般的金属都重，这到底是什么东西，种子还是武器？ “还是种子！”
他仔细观察后，觉得应该是一枚形状怪异的种子，因为可以感受到它蕴含的勃勃生机。
真是很难想象，下次它生根发芽的话，会长成什么样子，太怪异了。
他小心翼翼的尝试，在石头划了一下，结果石头上出现清晰的刻痕，这种子太坚硬了。
楚风确实不太担心损毁，因为以前黄牛想吃掉种子，结果差点将牙齿崩断，它的实力可是很强的。
“这种子难道可以暂时当飞剑用？” 楚风狐疑。
现在他真有点相信那个传闻了，将种子埋在地下，可以种出人来，毕竟他现在已经种出一把“剑体”。
楚风震撼。 石盒中还有两颗种子，一颗乌黑干瘪，另一颗像是被压扁了，呈紫褐色。
乌黑干瘪的那一颗，如今有了一丝生气，若非他成为王极生物后，神觉敏锐，根本不可能感知到。
“好！” 楚风大喜。
第一颗种子就带给了他各种惊喜，剩下的两颗或许更惊人，只不过生长条件也许更苛刻。
只要不是“死种”，一切都好说，以后总有机会让它们复苏，种出东西来。
楚风将三颗种子都放进石盒，小心收好，将扔在地上的风衣捡起，大步向前走去，接着他又猛地迈步，检验速度。
一瞬间，他突破空气束缚，出现在数百米外，在他的身后则传来恐怖的爆鸣声，他突破了音障！
一秒钟三百八十米！
这符合王级生物的实力，一般来说，突破到这个层次都可达到音速，对肉身的要求极高，一般的生物承受不住，会解体。
楚风感觉到了自身的强大，信心十足，他遥望北方，仿佛穿透迷雾，看到到了顺天，他要杀回去！ 大家这么热情，这种支持，让我都有点压力了，必须得写好圣墟这本书，感谢你们。

Chapter 127: The Essence of Kingship
Translator: Mike Editor: Chrissy Chu Feng knew that his body constitution was drastically evolving. He even thought that the changes came too violent and swift! Almost in the blink of an eye, it felt as if his body had been liberated from some forms of constraints. He felt light and nimble; his god-like instinct became even sharper; and his five senses had never been so incisive!
His body was glowing like a sun. Chu Feng felt as if that his entrails were burning and that his skin was about to be ripped apart. Eye-piercing brilliance penetrated the skin through the pores, looking almost as if a bomb was about to be detonated inside him.
That long and golden hair of his danced in the wind as astonishing golden rays were ejected from his golden pupils. In terms of appearance, Chu Feng was nothing short of a demonic god.
This process felt peculiar and strange. It felt almost like a rebirth. Chu Feng felt liberated. For him, the past life felt as if it had been spent entirely inside a bottomless swamp; but now, he felt that he had broken away from that swamp and had been able to breathe the fresh air again! He felt free and natural.
"Is this how all the beast kings feel?"
Chu Feng bowed his head in meditation while clenching his fist. He felt as if a sacred stove was burning an immortal column of fire inside him. The fire gave him heat, power, strength and the vitality of life.
He could pierce through a two-inch iron wall by just whimsically wielding his fist. There was no need for him to summon the tiger and the dragon form of Xingyi 12 forms in order to deliver such a power.
If he ran into Huang Yun and Kong Lin right now, he wouldn’t choose to run. He would stand firmly on his ground and fight to the bitter end. He had mastered the power of a beast king. He could now feel and understand the essence of kingship!
Chu Feng was in fine mettle. He looked down at himself, and finally he could see the inside of himself. His entrails were entangled with a few strands of light. Those strands looked almost like a bundle of chains shackling him to something else.
"I feel like I’ve shaken off my shackles and freed myself from the spiritual swamp, but now it seems like everything has only just started." Chu Feng came to realize that he was yet to be entirely liberated.
Even after he shook off the "shackles" and struggled his way to land on "dry lands", the "shackles" were still being tied up to his entrails. He was still not a free man.
This was the so-called "yoke". One day, he would have to overcome them!
Chu Feng started to make sense of everything. Those so-called beast kings were all tied up to "shackles". Although few could match their might and power, they were still spiritually constrained.
The beast kings themselves all knew that there were still roads to travel and things to be done in order to break off from the "shackles". They could never be "carefree" until the shackles were gone!
Awakening. Shackled. Carefree. These were the three realms!
Chu Feng could now understand the meaning of each of these three realms. The names suggested its meaning, clearly and distinctly.
The shackles inside him could only be discerned after the god-like instinct grew powerful and effective. The shackles had a riot of color, one color for each region, and each region consisted of its own unique force.
God-like instinct could capture the trace of the force that flowed within the shackles, and then it would trace out its shape.
Chu Feng attentively studied the shape of the shackles. Were people born with the spiritual shackles? Why did they look just like the physical shackles that were seen in everyday life? These shackles locked the important parts of the human body, tightly holding them in place.
"I’m on the same level as a quasi-king. I need to break off at least one single shackle in order to accomplish a thorough breakthrough."
Chu Feng bowed his head in meditation. He breathed rhythmically at a pace that was in synchronization with the rhythms specified by the special breathing technique, then he suddenly thrusted out his limbs; he was trying to cast off the shackles!
Unfortunately, he didn’t succeed. He tottered and staggered, and he almost took a tumble. With his god-like instinct, Chu Feng could see the multi-colored shackles inside himself. The shackles were brightly shone as they were acting together to suppress him.
The brightly-colored shackles seemed to have been made of some form of sacred gold, tightly locking him in place, incapacitating him entirely.
Chu Feng admitted to himself that he was being greedy. To get rid of all the shackles was sheer fantasy at this stage. He had to be patient, or things might work against him to punish him for his greed.
Chu Feng did not get impatient about it; instead, slowly and steadily, he calmed himself down. He was still breathing at a rhythmic pace. Right now, to get every bit of pollen absorbed through his skin was what he needed to prioritize over anything else. The pollens had perhaps the greatest benefit to his body.
The huge flower on the tree was still pouring down trickles of golden mists, but the mists were becoming fainter and fainter until it was not enough to thoroughly surround him. His skin had absorbed most the pollens that were discharged earlier.
Only a few plumes of mists were left to be absorbed. Chu Feng opened his mouth and swallowed everything down his throat. Up to this point, Chu Feng felt perfectly content. Every single bit of catalyst had been taken in. Nothing was wasted.
On the golden tree, that flower began to wither away. The petals still looked golden, but the color was pale. When the wind breezed by, the petals shrivelled then slowly drifted down.
Chu Feng tried not to pay attention to the fruit. He stood still with both of his eyes closed. He tried to make sense of all the changes that had just taken place inside him; in the meantime, he was still trying to break away from the shackles.
"I have the might and power to do what I’m capable of is mostly thanks to the special breathing technique. My fist positions and my boxing styles were established on top of that. So maybe I should first let my arms break away from the shackles."
His body was tied up to the chains, but this had little to no effect on the power that his breathing technique could exert. However, if he could "liberate" one of his arms, the power of his fists would drastically improve!
He gazed at his right arm. There, a silver chain was running along the length of his arm.
Chu Feng carefully directed the flow of force inside himself. His chest felt surging with power, and his hands felt puffed up with strength! And when this was coupled by the special breathing technique, suddenly, his body was glowing with brilliant light. Rays that shone dazzlingly bright burst out of his body like the glow of a rising sun.
His right arm was burning like a scorching sun, giving this misty region a heavenly glow!
If this were seen by the beast kings, they would be startled and shocked.
Because to cast off the confinement of shackles required time. Usually, one would have to stay as a quasi-king for an extended period of time before he could move on to be a king. During this time, he would have to practice and consolidate all the newly-acquired powers in order to a lay a solid foundation for further evolution. This process was vital in many ways.
But Chu Feng wanted to press on to the finish without let-up. He wanted to become a king right here right now. He had no time to wait.
"PONG!"
Suddenly, his right arm burst into a dazzling beam of silver light. It felt as if something had erupted. Chu Feng tottered and staggered; he almost took a tumble.
Chu Feng looked cheerful. He succeeded!
Suddenly, he could feel that his body had become even lighter. His right arm, especially, had been inundated in a sea of silver. A mysterious strand of force congregated in the blood vessel of his right arm, then this mass of energy was carried by the blood to circulate throughout his body. He felt nourished and nurtured.
"Huh?" Chu Feng seemed to have been taken aback by something. He realized that the so-called silver shackle had been somehow degraded into a stream of liquid, flowing freely inside the veins. It had become a mass of energy. It flowed into the flesh, acting as some sort of supplement to nurture his body.
Right now, his right arm was like a glowing medallion in the utter darkness.
When everything finally settled, Chu Feng clenched his right fist and wielded it in the air, but suddenly, with a bang, it puffed out an unquenchable flame of silver fire, blazing like a silver globe.
"This is…" He was surprised, but soon he realized that he had unlocked a magic power.
Each time a creature cast off a shackle, a magic power was unlocked
Chu Feng remembered that during the fight with the Ash Wolf, the beast had once tried to cast off a shackle just before his death. In doing so, it wished that it would be granted with a magic power that would allow it to reach the state of nirvana. However, it did not succeed.
"What is my magic power?" Chu Feng was eager to find out what he was capable of. When he gently moved his fist, it became surrounded by a scorching flame; it was a flame could melt gold and stones!
And when his fist was being fiercely wielded, the flame evolved into an eye-piercing ray. The ray darted forward like a bolt of lightning. This ray proved its power by showing that it could penetrate all kinds of substance, let it be trees or giant boulders.
The magic power was very much the source of might and power of a beast king.
Back when the Ash Wolf was severely injured, only three percent of what it used to be capable of was left inside it. The magic power it possessed was the ability to move sand and stones, but during the fight, its injury prevented it from using its power for an extended period of time. Otherwise, Chu Feng would have no ways of defeating it.
While Chu Feng was left dumbfounded by the sight, he was very suspicious as well. "Does the ancient martial arts always require the supplement of a magic power to exert its full potential?"
BANG!
There were a few giant boulders standing a few meters away from Chu Feng. They were all over ten meters tall, but the yak crushed and shattered them all.
Chu Feng now understood where the true power of a beast king lay!
"Awakening. It is only the stage where we begin to see the light. Shackled. It is the realm where once we break free, the potentials that lay beneath our skin would be fully unleashed. One could only be a king once he had had a thorough grasp of what he is capable of then fully exert it!" Chu Feng said to himself.
This is the essence of kingship!
Meanwhile, the golden tree had borne a golden seed. The seed shone like fire essence of the sun, golden and resplendent. It was a dazzling sight to behold.
The golden tree began to wither away until at last, only the seed was shining. The seed had drawn every bit of essence and vitality from the mother tree, and it was getting more and more gorgeous and splendid.
Chu Feng was astounded because he could see the shape of that seed. It looked completely different from what a seed should look like. It shaped like a little dagger, rather than a spherical ball.
The "seed" was only an inch long, but if it could grow any bigger, this seed would become a blade-less heavy sword!
"Is… is this even a seed?" Chu Feng was flabbergasted. Was it even possible to have anything growing out of this "seed" ever again? Chu Feng was truly speechless.
PUFF!
At last, the entire golden tree had rotten from the tip to its root. It became dust and ashes, then it was brought away by the gentle breezes.
This was quite a short sword. It had fallen to the ground. Golden luster was trickling down the spine of this little "sword".
Chu Feng picked it up and weighed it in his hand. This seed felt even heavier than some of the metals. What on earth was this? A seed or a weapon?
"A seed!" Chu Feng said to himself with confidence after carefully examining this little piece of mystery in his hand, because he could still feel the thriving vitality of life that was flowing inside this thing.
It was hard to imagine the shape of the plant that this seed could become. Things looked rather unusual.
He gently ran the seed along the surface of a stone, and a scratch instantly became visible on the stone. The seed was too firm and solid.
Chu Feng was not quite worried about damaging the seed, because Yellow Ox had tried to eat the seed before and it ended rather horribly for the calf. Yellow Ox took a solid bite on the seed, and it almost took out the calf’s teeth. Although the seed might look insignificant, it had a lot of power buried under its innocent appearance.
"Could this seed be used as a flying sword?" Chu Feng questioned.
Right now, he was a bit inclined to believe the rumor that a seed could grow into a man after being buried underground. …
Inside the stone box, there lay the other two seeds. One of them looked black, shrivelled and pathetic, while the other looked brown and oval, looking as if it had been squashed.
The black seed seemed to have got a bit angry. Chu Feng’s god-like instinct had made it possible for him to sense of the mood change of this inanimate seed.
"Alright!" Chu Feng went a bit wild with joy.
The first seed had brought him all kinds of pleasant surprise, so the remaining two might prove to be even more astonishing. But maybe, Chu Feng supposed, these two might be a lot pickier than the first one in terms of incubation environment.
As long as these seeds were not "dead", the opportunity was still there. One day, Chu Feng would somehow resuscitate the other two seeds and cultivate something out of them.
Chu Feng put all three seed inside the stone box. He carefully wrapped up the box and picked up the windbreaker that he had thrown on the ground. He turned around from the site and walked with big strides. Then, he suddenly sped up his pace to see how fast he could travel.
Suddenly, he felt as if he had broken through the barrier of air; in the blink of an eye, he had travelled more than a few hundred meters. Loud bangs exploded behind him. He had broken the sound barrier!
Three hundred and eight meters in one second!
This was the normal speed of a beast king. Normally speaking, those who had reached this level could all travel at the speed of sound. Such swiftness set a lot of requirements on a man’s physical body. An ordinary man would not be able to endure the force he experienced as they travelled at such great speed. They would have their own muscle ripped and flesh torn apart, turning them into a pile of mince.
Chu Feng could feel the power and might that had been granted to him. He felt confident. He faced due north, looking into the distance. It felt almost as if he could see the city of Shuntian through the dense fog around him. It’s time for revenge!

第029章
变身海豹其实有一个非常致命的隐藏的规则，那就是变身之后，陆离身上的装备完全失去效用，整个人的护甲归零！
0护甲的单位被BOSS击中会有什么后果？
秒杀！
所以，他的心里也很急。
碧蓝透彻的湖水显得有点昏暗，水波动荡中折射出一道道的涟漪，就在陆离差点以为自己要被击中的时候，光明从上方洒下来，夕阳的红晕染红了瑟瑟湖水，水花四溅中，他冲出的水面！
一道箭矢破空而来，狠狠的扎在克雷格的脑袋上，攻击很低，但是视觉效果上依旧是血花四溅，克雷格哀鸣一声，舍弃了在水面上翻腾的小海豹，冲向岸边的可恶精灵战士。
“尼玛，这怪防御逆天了啊，我刚才那一下连防御都没破，”蔚蓝海风怪叫一声，切换武器，弓弩变成长剑和盾牌，对着乌龟冲了过来。
陆离也爬上了岸，在乌龟的尾部随手捅了一下。
－7！
泪流满面，这尼玛什么防御啊，他打5级副本BOSS普通伤害最少都有十几二十点，和玩家PK，装备差距大的时候，甚至能飚到一百点，克雷格不过是个3级BOSS而已，比他低两级，居然只打了7点血。
克雷格的叫声像婴儿的哭泣，尖细而又凄厉。
它张开密布利齿的嘴，开始攻击蔚蓝海风，尖锐如刀的前爪看起来也颇具杀伤力。
“吓我半死，原来攻击力这么低，”蔚蓝海风被攻击之后松了口气，捏在手里随时准备吃的药剂也放了回去。
陆离查了下战斗提示才知道他为什么这么说。
克雷格对蔚蓝海风造成的这点伤害，还真是有辱他BOSS的身份。
不过再看看克雷格的血量，陆离和蔚蓝海风的脸上都带上了一丝苦涩，整整三万！
比五级副本BOSS高了两倍以上！
这得费多少药水啊！
没办法，为了极品装备，为了极品材料，硬着头皮也得上，没有人会因为怕浪费药而放弃BOSS。
克雷格在水里勇猛的一塌糊涂，来到了岸上却有些恹恹，基本上就是趴在地上原地不动，陆离纯粹是站桩打BOSS，完成度高的吓人，时常能够把BOSS晕眩或者瘫痪掉，让蔚蓝海风也能喘口气。
这一打足足打了半个小时，蔚蓝海风用了10瓶药剂，BOSS的血量堪堪过半。
正埋头奋斗，克雷格突然动了，它嗖的一声冲向湖水。
陆离真想给自己一巴掌。
两栖类或者类似的生物，大部分都会这一招，能够在更适宜的环境下回复大量的气血。
在两人愤怒的目光注视下，克雷格的血条缓慢而又坚定的恢复着，一直恢复了百分之十才停下来，也就是说十几分钟的功夫白费了，最关键的是等会说不定还有。
“不管了，拉走打，去那边小树林，”愤怒归愤怒，和系统较真没什么意思，都打到这会了总不能放弃吧。
克雷格慢吞吞的被吸引着，距离映月湖越来越远。
映月湖旁边的小树林长满了类似麻树之类的东西，细小紧密，克雷格行走起来非常困难，但是系统赋予它的仇恨系统又让他不能轻易放弃，只能硬着头皮跟进。
感觉拉的最够远了，陆离和蔚蓝海风才开始重新奋斗。
这一次打到百分之五十血的时候，克雷格倒没有玩什么新花样，只是徒劳无功的拍打着蔚蓝海风的青铜盾牌，也不知道是离开水太久了还是怎么的，它的攻击也降低了不少，血量从百分之五十到百分之三十这个阶段，甚至连暴击都没有出现过一次。
到了百分之三十，克雷格再次焦灼起来，扭动着笨拙的身子想要逃回湖中。
“卡住它，注意站位，”陆离冲过去，拦在BOSS的前面，被BOSS一个冲撞顶飞。
冲撞技能可能需要冷却，蔚蓝海风接上陆离的节奏，成功的拦下了BOSS。
蔚蓝海风的血瓶很快就消耗光了，这一番折腾下来，足足用了十一个初级生命药剂，如果不是陆离他们洗劫了地精商人，还真没办法支撑。
“我这里还有六瓶，应该够了，”陆离将自己背包里的几瓶全拿出来丢到地上。
“你也拿一瓶吧，万一BOSS狂暴了，我不一定撑得住，”蔚蓝海风说。
眼看着胜利在望，但是谁也不敢保证不会出什么意外。
“野外BOSS首杀的话，也能上电视的，”陆离笑笑，手上动作不停，非常犀利的打出一个85的完成度，影袭成功将克雷格晕眩2秒。
“和你认识了之后，似乎就感觉上电视不算什么了，”蔚蓝海风感慨，他以前也自诩高手，认识了陆离之后才知道这游戏还有人玩的如此逆天。
“运气好点而已，”陆离自然不会说，我是重生的，我还能更逆天。
“运气好也是本事，最关键的是你还那么努力，连打个怪都在练技术，每次见到你都感觉进步非常大，到你这个程度还进步，我们这些人还怎么混啊。”
“没办法，不努力的话，很快就会被淘汰，这游戏可能对大多数人来说都只是游戏，对我来说却是工作，是希望，”陆离说。
蔚蓝海风挺惊讶：“你要靠游戏赚钱吗？”
“是啊，看你可能也不是新手了，玩了这么多年的游戏，感觉《曙光》怎么样？” 陆离对蔚蓝海风挺了解，但是他不可能表现出来，有些事情要慢慢说。
蔚蓝海风擎着盾牌，重重的击打在克雷格的脑袋上，盾击生效，BOSS进入晕眩状态，他听到陆离这么问，立刻毫不犹豫的回道：“这游戏当然要比其他的都好。”
“所以游戏里商机无限，比现实中找的工作还赚钱，你现在是上学还是已经工作了？” 只有重生的人才知道，《曙光》的影响力会有多大，不到一年的时间不仅占领了全球虚拟游戏市场，而且迅速发展出了成熟的竞技体制。

Chapter 29: Keep Grinding Until It Dies Translator: Halcyon Translation Editor: Halcyon Translation
-7！ The Seal Transformation actually had a very dangerous hidden effect; after transforming, the effects of Lu Li’s equipment would be nullified. This meant that he had 0 armor.
What would happen if you had 0 armor and were hit by a Boss?
Death!
It was only natural that he felt anxious.
The blueish green lake appeared dim and ripples could be seen across its surface. Just as Lu Li thought he was about to get hit, a red light shone down from the setting sun and he broke through the surface with a splash.
An arrow shot through the air, hitting Kleig directly in the head. Although it only dealt a little bit of damage, there was still a noticeable spray of blood. Kleig wailed and abandoned the small seal at the surface, instead charging towards the damned Elf Warrior near the bank.
“Dammit. This monster’s defense is insane; I barely even damaged it,” Azure Sea Breeze cried out in surprise. He changed his weapon from the crossbow to a long sword and shield as the turtle rushed towards him.
While this was happening, Lu Li had climbed back onto shore and stabbed Kleig in the tail.
-7!
He was shocked - what kind of defense was this? When he hit Bosses from Instance Dungeons, he would deal at least 10 to 20 damage. When he PVP’ed with other weaker players, he could deal up to 100 damage. Kleig was only a level 3 Boss, but he could only deal 7 damage.
Kleig sobbed like a baby; its cry was high pitched and sad.
It opened its mouth which was densely filled with teeth and began attacking Azure Sea Breeze. Each tooth looked lethal, like the tip of sharp knife.
“I was scared earlier, but it turns out it has very low attack.” Azure Sea Breeze breathed a sigh of relief after he was attacked, putting away the potion he was about to take.
It was only after Lu Li had checked the Battle Announcement that he understood why he said that.
The damage that Kleig was dealing to Azure Sea Breeze was not Boss-status-worthy.
However, when they saw Kleig’s HP, Lu Li and Azure Sea Breeze’s faces both went dark. 30,000HP!
This was 2 times higher than a level 5 Instance Dungeon Boss!
How many potions would they need!?
No one would give up on a Boss just because they were afraid of using too many potions. They simply had no choice: for the sake of better equipment and materials, they had to do it.
Kleig was powerful in the water, but when it reached the shore, it became somewhat slow and weary. It lay on the ground unmoving, while Lu Li stood still and attacked it. This allowed him to attain an extremely high Skill Completion value, which in turn allowed for the Boss to be stunned often and gave Azure Sea Breeze some breathing space.
After fighting for 30 minutes, Azure Sea Breeze had used 10 potions and the Boss had lost more than half its HP.
In the midst of the struggle, Kleig suddenly moved and rushed towards the lake.
“Dammit, it’s going to recover!” Lu Li really wanted to slap himself.
Most amphibians and other monsters with a similar biology had the ability to return to a more suitable environment and recover large amounts of HP.
Under Lu Li’s and Azure Sea Breeze’s angry stares, Kleig’s HP bar slowly increased by 10. Not only did this mean that they had lost several minutes of their time, but there could be an even greater effect that they didn’t know about.

"value": "Shortly after the Nine Regions Intelligence Revenue Service was founded, the first leading team of a total of five people left the Marquis County that same evening.\nThe reason for this was very simple: as a sect that wanted to establish their initial starting base, Marquis County has too many birth defects.\nFirst, the County Magistrate’s attitude towards Immortal Cultivation Sect was relatively lukewarm. For example, the Seven Stars Sect could be considered as influential locally here, but they actually could not wantonly attract followers here and could only be a guest in the County Magistrate’s guest house. The dirty old man, He Yun, a Six Stars Elder, had to pay the bill for all the women that he played with fair and square. Cultivators here simply could not go rampant; they didn’t even have many privileges. As the place where there was a battle against the wild beast in ancient times, Marquis County’s background was very solid.\nSecond, if they wanted to establish their initial starting base in Marquis County, it would be extremely conspicuous. If they wantonly levied the intelligence tax here, not only would it attract the pressure from the Great Ming Country, it would also bound to meet resistance from the Seven Stars Sect.\nWith these several overlapping factors, leaving was an inevitable choice.\nThe answer was obvious...\n“Ha! Dog Ear Mountain, I’m back!”\nFacing the morning sun, the Director of the Nine Regions Intelligence Revenue Service, or the Wisdom Sect’s Sect Leader, Wang Lu, with a smug smile, loudly laughed at the Dog Ear Mountain.\n“... Are you sure you want to develop your force from this deserted outskirt ridge?” Wisdom Sect’s Holy Maiden Feng Ling asked with a puzzled look. “This is totally incompatible with your lofty ambition to be a powerful man in the Nine Regions.”\nThe fatty also began to complain, “Senior Brother, why come to this desolate countryside? The living condition here is too harsh.”\nSect Leader Wang Lu snorted. “If we don’t come to this harsh secluded ridge, but instead directly go to a prefectural capital, it would be a surprise if we don’t become excrement before sundown! Although behind us is the Spirit Sword Sect, we still have no big figure and no money, we’re basically a rundown sect! Moreover, you should know the argument of how a single spark can start a fire in the prairie, so we will walk on the path of occupying-the-outskirts-to-surround-a-city—generally. This is the single most important path for the development of a newly established sect. If we succeed to some extent someday, our future would be limitless. Let alone Wang Family Village has the advantage of being blessed by the heaven—with an abundant spiritual energy, which could easily lead to a miracle. This would provide an enormous help to the initial development of the sect. In the future, when we scale up, we can lead a revolution… Oh, wrong, this place would become the Immortal Sacred Land. In fact, this place is more superior to those prosperous, bustling cities.”\nThe nearby six stars dirty old man sighed. “Director is really farsighted; you have a long-term vision, and your words are really on point. In the past, the Seven Stars Sect’s Sect Leader gathered all of us six stars elders to the main base to jointly discuss the arrangement for the Wang Family Village. After racking out our brains, the plan that came out, in general, was just like this. Moreover, there are many parts not as thorough as Director.”\nWang Lu smiled as he approvingly nodded. “You clearly understand this truth, promoting you is not in vain. If you do well, many benefits will be yours.”\nHe has a look of a faithful old servant! No one would ever think that just a day before, the two were basically enemies. Even more difficult to think was a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator willingly submitted to a low-level Qi Cultivating Stage young cultivator.\nThis was the ability of a leader. As a leader, one did not need to be more specialized than others. The important thing was to create a good team, let them display the limits of their abilities, and bring the team to victory.\n“I’ve already told you on our way here the specific on what needs to be done, so you just need to do that. The Seven Stars Sect has already deeply rooted in the Wang Family Village, it would not be easy to get rid of them.”\nThe dirty old man nodded as his face turned serious. “Rest assured, Director, I and Feihua will not lose our first battle after we renounced the dark and sought the light!”\n“Em, I wish you success.”\nWith that, Wang Lu patted the dirty old man’s shoulder, turned around and descended the mountain.\nThe dirty old man and Wu Feihua looked at each other, smiled, cast their respective spell, and then leisurely floated towards the Wang Family Village. ——\nWang Family Village of the Dog Ear Mountain was a peaceful and comfortable village in the Marquis County. It has abundant produce, and the folks there were simple and honest. It was just like a paradise.\nIt was just that in recent years, the village had undergone a huge change. The people gradually turned violent. The smile on the face of the villagers that were so common in the past became increasingly rare… It was replaced instead by insatiable “hunger and thirst”, as well as full of resentment towards the gods and men; the village had been flooded with disturbing hostility.\nThis morning, several villagers gathered in a dilapidated wooden house. Among which was a young hunter, a stout blacksmith… furthermore, there were also several peasant women with a resentful face.\nThese people entered the room and greeted each other, yet their voice sounded weary and tired.\n“Brother Zhang, you look like sh*t.”\n“Not for a long time. Every night, when I close my eyes, I always have a nightmare. And it’s always the same dream about a grotesque monster. I would then wake up already drenched in cold sweat. I could not sleep at all.”\n“Yes, in the village, who can sleep well these days? It’s all because of that little devil!”\nNot long ago, Wang Lu had cleaved two Seven Stars Sect cultivators and one Public Envoy. Since then, many villagers fell into a panic. They worried that Wang Lu, this monster, would be the scourge of the whole village. They also worried that the Seven Stars Sect would put the blame on the village.\n“That little devil is really hateful. Not only did he severe our link to Immortality, but he also provoked a future disaster… Alas, the whole village is implicated by him!”\n“Yeah, I heard from the people in the county that there was a boy who, without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, disrespected a Daoist Immortal. As a result, all the people in the village died of a sudden illness, nobody survived!”\n“You’re kidding, right? I just feel a headache these two days…”\n“What do you think?”\n“What do I think? Didn’t we discuss this several days ago already? First, we held that little devil’s family hostage, and then we apologize to the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals!”\n“Wang Fugui? He… he hadn’t done anything evil; we shouldn’t do this to him.”\n“Isn’t it enough that he sired a child that is lower than pigs and dogs!?” That village woman shrilly shouted, “Don’t tell me you want to wait until everyone dies because of him before you agree!”\n“Sister-in-law Liu, what are you talking about!? Wasn’t I also implicated by him? I just thought that it would be hard to take that little devil’s parents hostage. Moreover, previously, didn’t Xiaohu also oppose to this?”\nAt this time, a scholarly-looking villager laughed coldly. “Xiaohu? Do you think he is still the honest and kindhearted Xiaohu? What a joke, how do you guys know for sure that his mind wasn’t confused by that devil!? That devil even killed the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals and the Public Envoy, so why would he leave Wang Xiaohu alive!? These last few days, that devil isn’t here, which is a rare opportunity, so why would Wang Xiaohu want to stop us? Why would he defend Wang Fugui’s family!?”\nAs soon as these words got out, the room suddenly quieted down. A more violent mood rapidly brewed.\nInside the house, everyone was surprised. “A Daoist Master is here!?”\nThey immediately pushed out the door and went out, only to see two cultivators, shrouded in a pink veil, under the eyes of the villagers, slowly descend from the sky like the magic clouds.\nThese two were naturally the dirty old man and Wu Feihua.\nAfter they had landed on the center of an open area in the Village, the two were quickly surrounded by dozens of people who focused on them with a wide variety of complex look.\n“Are they… Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals?”\n“I don’t think so. I heard that the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals would always have stars embroidered in their dress.”\n“Then who are they?”\n“…” Like previously told by Wang Lu, the dirty old man acted as if he ignored his surrounding and just frowned, looking on all directions as if searching for something.\nBefore long, a grey-haired old man tremblingly walked over. He was the Village Head of the Wang Family Village, Wang Qinian.\nA few days ago, after the chaos made by Wang Lu, this Village Head always had sleepless nights. In several days, he seemed to get older by twenty years. No longer was he a hoary robust middle age man, instead, he was now a limp old man.\nWang Qinian only stammered out half of what he wanted to say before he was interrupted by Wu Feihua.\n“What a thick devil aura!”\nWang Qinian was taken aback. Daoist Immortal was indeed Daoist Immortal, with a glance, they immediately recognize the evil that was in this place!\nAfter a quick thought, the old man quickly fell on his knees. “Daoist Immortals, please save us! A few days ago, a devil made a crime in this village, and now, the whole village is in imminent peril!”\nHowever, the old man’s knees didn’t reach the ground. An invisible force had propped him up.\nDirty old man He Yun beckoned with his hand. “Please stand up. We’re here to get rid of the devil.”\nWang Qinian was extremely grateful. “Thank you for the great kindness, Daoist Masters! It’s just that the devil is too powerful, so Daoist Immortals should exercise caution. Previously, the Daoist Immortals of the Seven Stars Sect were killed by that devil…”\nAs soon as he said that, the dirty old man reached out his hand and his mouth shouted out, “Clean!” Suddenly, a mass of blue air suddenly appeared in the sky, coagulated into clouds, and then fell from the sky, shrouding the close to a hundred villagers that were present there. As soon as they were enveloped by that blue air, all of them felt relaxed, free from dirt, and full of energy!\n“Immortal Method! This is Immortal Method!?”\nSeveral villagers cried out in disbelief. Before this, the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals had also used Immortal methods, but those Daoist Immortals’ Immortal Methods were not this magical!\nHearing the shouts from the people around him, the dirty old man inwardly sniggered. “What fools. They’re actually making a fuss just for this clean spell!”\nWu Feihua also secretly thought that this was funny. However, her face was still as calm as still water. “Senior Brother, your exorcism spell is really effective… The air in this place was indeed contaminated by the Seven Stars Sect’s devil aura.”\n“Mm, just now that exorcism spell is actually designed to be used against Seven Stars Sect’s devils, but since the effect is so obvious, then that’s good.”\nThe two people talked like professionals, treating the matter very lightly. However, the villagers who listened to them were absolutely terrified.\nWang Qinian mustered up his courage and interjected, “Excuse me, Daoist Immortals. Just now, you said the Seven Stars Sect… what exactly is going on?”\nThe dirty old man explained in a righteous tone, “The Seven Stars Sect is an infamous devil sect in the Blue River Region. They were known for using despicable tricks to deceive common people. They are the public enemy of us, the righteous sects!”\nBoom!\nWang Qinian suddenly felt as if he was struck by a lighting. Stars appeared in his eyes as he felt a severe pain in his chest, as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.\nDevil Sect! Despicable trick! Deceive! Public enemy of the righteous path!\n“Old man, don’t be too anxious, every problem has its solution.”\nWang Qinian coughed a few times, however, his mind was still in a mess.\nHowever, the surround villagers have heard all of that. After a moment of shock, they gradually were able to think clearly again. Some villagers could not help but muster up their courage to ask.\n“Daoist Immortals, just now, are all that you said… true?”\nWu Feihua was upset. “Why do we need to deceive you?”\nThe dirty old man then played the role of a kindly elder. “It’s true… The Seven Stars Sect have stirred up trouble in Blue River Region with countless victims. We, from the righteous sects, have long wanted to crack them down, but alas, they were elusive, always disappearing before we arrived. This time, junior sister and I, on our way, found out that this place has a thick devil aura, so we hastily came… What a pity, we can’t even catch their tail.”\nUpon hearing these words, the villagers were stunned; they suddenly felt as if their whole world completely collapsed before their eyes.\nHow was it possible? They were obviously an Immortal Cultivation sect that could help people achieve immortality, how could they deceive people!?\nOne of the villagers was unwilling to accept this; he asked, “Excuse me, Daoist Immortals, may I ask if what the Seven Stars Sect said, that everyone can become immortal, is also a lie?”\nInstantly, the square became particularly quiet. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the answer from the Daoist Immortals. Certainly, their hearts were unclear. If the Daoist Immortals said they couldn't, they didn’t know what to do. However, they still had to ask this question!\nPhew! Suddenly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.\n“However, for that devil sect, not only did they not help people becoming immortal, heh, they also harm people beyond hope; their victims are simply numerous!”\nThe villagers, who just had their hopes back, felt that their hearts sank again. “Beyond hope?”\n“Humph, the Spirit Root Development Pills and other drugs that they use are all cheap knock-offs. Not only that, they completely don’t know the application method. They just let people casually take this drug which they put a sky-high price for it. Using the drug with this method, heh, even if someone has a natural affinity with Immortality, that someone would probably be ruined by this poison!”\nWu Feihua quietly added, “Actually, it’s not too bad. Even if you consume this knock-off pills, ultimately, it would just ruin your spirit root… However, sometimes, for their devil cultivation, the Seven Stars Sect would take the life of common people as the sacrificial offering to refine devil treasures. That’s really tragic.”\nThe dirty old man nodded. “Yes. Last month, in Eastern Way Prefecture, they performed the ten thousand souls blood sacrifice. Hmph, in the radius of fifty kilometers, several thousands of people were affected by these blood sacrifice ritual; the scene is too horrible to look at.”\n“Yes. It turns out their Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sacrifice is incomplete. After the ritual, the villagers were barely alive. Their whole body were festered badly, but they actually can’t die yet. They remained in that miserable state, struggling for seven days and seven nights. Alas, that evil sect was actually happy with their grievances.”\nThe two people’s back and forth conversation nearly scared the nearby villagers to death.\nVillage Head Wang Qinian stammered, “Daoist Immortals… the Seven Stars Sect have been here for more than two years, would, would they blood sacrifice us…”\nThe dirty old man’s face turned solemn. “Two years!? They have been here for that long!?”\n“Yes-yes!” Old Village Head immediately cried out, “Daoist Immortals, please save us!”\nA moment later, around a hundred villagers kneeled down one by one. “Daoist Immortals, please help us!”\nThe dirty old man held out his hand to help them get up. “Rest assured. Since we’re already here, we will not stand idly by… Village Head, why don’t you lead us to walk in the village; we have to carefully inspect this place!”\n“Ah, sure. This old man will be a guide for the two Daoist Immortals!”\n—— The two Daoist Immortals, followed by around a hundred villagers, slowly walked around the village… Before long, they walked to the cemetery outside the village. They looked at each other in a glance, and then, Wu Feihua made a horrified expression.\n“What a thick aura of the dead! What is happening here!?”\nThe dirty old man then put on an aghast expression. “Is-is this place an ancient battlefield? To have such a strong dead aura, there should be, at the very least, one million dead people!”\nBoom!\nThe villagers behind them were scared shitless!\nThe dirty old man continued to scare them, “Wrong! This is not a normal dead air accumulation, there’s a special array that causes this… my goodness! They transformed the nearby spiritual energy alignment using the Yinyang Array into dead aura! Originally, this kind of man-made dead aura is inactive, but this Seven Stars Sect’s array used the Wang Family Village people’s Yang energy to activate the dead aura. Once this dead aura burst out, in a radius of five hundred kilometers from here, hah, not even a blade of grass could grow. However, these buried heavenly evil soldiers have yet to form!”\n“Once such a thick dead aura rose, these buried heavenly evil soldiers… how much powerful would they be!?” Wu Feihua covered her small mouth, looking extremely shocked. “When did they bury this!?”\n“Probably some time ago when the righteous sects encircled them, so they had no other choice… However, if these heavenly evil soldiers really rise up, they would create trouble in the future and give our righteous sects a big headache.”\nWu Feihua gritted her teeth. “Senior Brother, do you think our joint effort would be able to destroy this Yinyang array?”\n“... At most, I am only forty percent assured. However, if we wait any longer, there’s a possibility that the dead aura would burst out. Hm, fortunately today, the divination told us to come to this place to inspect, so we found this just in time. Very well, Junior Sister, let’s begin!”\nWith that, the dirty old man’s eyes turned fierce as he swiftly shouted, “Appear!”\nWhoosh!\nA large black veil suddenly appeared in everyone’s line of sight, like a dark cloud that blotted out the sun! Underneath that black veil, there were layers upon layers of shadows of ghosts; countless malicious ghosts had been forced by the Daoist Immortal’s spell to show their real appearance, rushing around in all direction!\nWhich villagers has ever seen such a scene? Immediately, they thought the doomsday has come and cried out for their moms and dads.\nThe dirty old man slyly smiled—this Yinyang Life and Death Array and black veil were naturally his two masterpieces. It was somewhat difficult for a low-level Foundation Establishment like him or high-level Qi Cultivating Stage to push out such an illusion, however, if coupled with a few high-grade spirit stones provided by Wang Lu, that was another matter.\nEven so, he couldn’t sustain this illusion for long. Thus, according to the script, he would do the next step.\n“Senior Brother, this Life and Death Array is very fierce! We can’t even suppress it!”\n“We still have to try! Right now these hundreds of ghosts have shown their true form. If we don’t suppress it, the dead aura will burst out, and you and I will die without burial!”\n“But, but… I really can’t hold it anymore!”\n“You can do it, don’t give up!”\n“Uh, okay!”\n“... Junior Sister, if the dead aura’s intensity will still not drop later on, you have to run away!”\n“How can I leave you alone! If we must die, we must die together!”\nThe two hoarsely shouted at each other; the two were increasingly engrossed in the play.\nHowever, the villagers behind them were getting more and more cold.\nUnder the people’s stunned eyes, a pretty girl came out from that black veil. Her delicate eyebrows slightly frowned, showing her dissatisfaction.\n“What are you two doing here!?”\nThe dirty old man and Wu Feihua had just escaped from calamity; with heads full of cold sweat, they were stunned on the spot. A moment later, in consternation, they hurriedly kowtowed.\n“Pay respect to the Holy Maiden!”"

九州智商税务管理总局成立后不久，第一届领导班子共五人就连夜离开了武侯县。
原因很简单，作为教派开宗立派的根据地，武侯县存在太多的先天缺陷了。
一是县城官民对修仙门派的态度相对冷淡，例如七星门在附近也算是较有影响力的门派，却无法在县城大肆发展信徒，只能勉强占人家县令一间别院，身为六星长老的老淫棍何昀想要玩女人，都得老老实实掏钱付账。 修士在这里根本做不到无法无天，甚至没有多少特权。
二是武侯县作为初始起步的根据地，相对太过醒目，在这里大肆征收智商税，不但会引来大明国的压力，也势必会遭到七星门的阻力。
几个因素叠加，离开就成了必然选择。
那么九州智商税务管理总局又该在哪里立足呢？
“哈，亲爱的狗耳山，我又回来啦！”
迎着清晨的阳光，九州智商税务管理总局局长，或称智教教主王陆站在狗耳山脚下，踌躇满志，放声大笑。
“……你确定要从这荒郊野岭开始发展势力？” 智教圣女风铃非常疑惑地问，“和你那称雄九州的雄心壮志完全不符啊。”
胖子也开始叫苦：“师兄啊，怎么跑来跑去都是些荒郊僻岭啊，生活条件也太苦了点。”
更何况王家村有得天独hou的优势——灵气浓郁，非常容易引发神迹，可为教派初步发展提供极大的助力，日后规模起来了，还能作为革命……哦不成仙圣地来用。 其实比那些繁华城市更有优势。”
身旁某个六星老淫棍长叹一声：“局座深谋远虑，目光长远，一言便点中要害。
王陆笑着点了点头：“你倒是很明白事理，不枉我对你的提拔，好好干，以后好处少不了你的。”
让人很难想象就在一天之前，两人还是立场截然相对的敌人。 更难以想象，一个筑基期的修士，会对一个练气下品的少年如此心悦诚服。
这就是一个领导人的手腕了，作为领导，并不需要在专业上比其他人牛逼，只要能带好队伍，让他们发挥出极限的劳动力就是胜利了。
“具体该做什么，路上我已经交代的很清楚了，你和飞花就安心去做。 王家村有七星门的前期基础，要拿下来并不为难。”
老淫棍点了点头，面色也严肃起来：“局座放心，这是我和飞花弃暗投明后的第一战，绝不会有失！”
“嗯，祝你们马到成功。”
说完，王陆拍了拍老淫棍的肩膀，转身就下了山。
而老淫棍和雾飞花相视一笑，各自展开法术，从山顶飘然下落，向王家村飘了过去。
狗耳山的王家村，本是武侯县境内一个安逸祥和的村庄，物产丰富，民风淳朴，宛如世外桃源。
只是近些年来，村中却发生了不小的变化，民心逐渐暴戾，以往常挂在村民脸上的笑容越发稀少……取而代之的，是一种欲壑难填的饥渴，以及怨天尤人的愤恨，村中充斥着令人不安的戾气。
这一日清晨，十几名村民聚集在一间破败的木屋之中，有村中年轻的猎户，有身强力壮的铁匠……还有几个面带忿忿的农妇。
这些人陆续进屋，彼此打着招呼，只是声音中都含着浓浓的疲惫。
“张二哥，你脸色好难看。”
“王大嫂，你也有段时间没睡了？” “可不是，每到晚上，一闭上眼就噩梦连连，总是梦见奇形怪状的魔头，醒来就是一身冷汗，根本没法入睡。”
“唉，看来大家都是如此了。 “是啊，这几天，村里有谁能睡得安稳了？
不久前，王陆在村中提剑斩杀了两名七星门的修士和一个宣讲大使，自那以后，不少村民便陷入了恐慌之中，既担心王陆这个魔头会祸害全村，也担心七星门那些神仙会降罪于村子。
“那小魔头实在可恶，断咱们的仙缘也就罢了，惹出这么大的祸事来……唉，全村都要被他连累了！”
“是啊，我听县城里的人说过，有一个村子里，有个不知天高地hou的小子对神仙不敬，结果全村人一夜之间暴病而死，一个人都没活下来！”
？”
“那你说怎么办？”
“还能怎么办，几日前咱们不是商议过吗，拿住那小魔头的家人，向七星门的神仙们赔罪！”
“王富贵？ 他……他这几年倒是没做过什么恶，我们对他出手不太好。”
“刘二嫂你这是哪儿的话！ 我不也被他连累了吗？
我只是觉得，有那小魔头在，想要拿住他爹娘恐怕没那么容易，而且之前小虎不是也反对了吗？”
此时，一个学究模样的村民冷笑道：“小虎他宅心仁hou？ 笑话，你们怎么肯定小虎他不是被魔头迷惑了心智！
这番诛心之言一出，房内顿时安静下来，一股更加暴戾的情绪在快速的酝酿之中。
而正在此时，屋外传来一阵惊呼声。 “神仙！
连忙推门出去，只见天上一团粉色的轻纱，罩着两名修士，宛如天降祥云，在越聚越多的围观村民的目光中，缓缓落下。
这两人自然是老淫棍和雾飞花。
降落的地点就是村子正中的空地，两人落地后，身周很快就围了几十人，带着各式各样的复杂目光聚焦过来，议论纷纷。
“他们是……七星门的神仙？”
“不像啊，听说七星门的神仙会在衣襟上绣上星星，他们可没有啊。”
“那会是谁？”
老淫棍和雾飞花此时则牢记着王陆叮嘱的，一个演员的自我修养，对周围的声音视若无睹，只是各自皱着眉头，四处打量着，仿佛在寻找什么。
不多时，一个须发花白的老者颤抖着走了过来，正是王家村的村长王启年。
几天前，王陆在村中引发的混乱令他这个做村长的寝食难安，几天内宛如苍老了二十岁，原先稳健踏实的步伐也变得蹒跚起来。
王启年磕磕巴巴地才说到一半，就被雾飞花打断了。
“好重的魔气！”
王启年当时就吓了一跳，神仙不愧是神仙，一眼就看出此地有魔头作孽！
念头一转，老头儿连忙跪倒在地：“神仙救命！ 我们村子近日犯了魔头，全村人危在旦夕啊！”
然而老人的膝盖还没碰到地，就被一股无形的力量托了起来。
老淫棍何昀摆了摆手：“老人家起来，我们此行来，正是为降妖除魔。”
王启年顿时一愣：“魔教？” 老淫棍何昀开口说：“唔，没错，此地徘徊的正是七星门的魔气，嘿，果然是群狗改不了吃屎的孽障！”
言毕，老淫棍一抬手，口中一喝：“净！” 顿时一团磅礴的青气口中喷出，化为半空的青色云团，又从天而降，将在场村民接近百人全部笼罩了进去，而被青气沾染，所有人都感觉身体一阵轻松，污垢尽去，浑身精力焕发！
“仙法，这是仙法！
村民们不可思议地叫喊起来，在此之前，虽然也见过七星门的神仙施展仙法，但那些神仙的法术却远没有这般神奇！
听得周围人大呼小叫，老淫棍心中暗笑，果然是愚民，一个清洁真言便大惊小怪！
雾飞花心中自然也是好笑，但却面沉如水：“师兄你的驱魔咒果然见效了……这里的确是被七星门的魔气污染了。
“嗯，方才的驱魔咒是专为七星门的魔头们所用，既然效果如此明显，多半便不错了。”
两人一副专业口吻，说的云淡风轻，却令周围的人听的毛骨悚然。
王启年鼓起勇气插话道：“两位神仙，方才所说七星门……究竟是怎么回事？”
老淫棍义正词严地解释道：“七星门是苍溪州非常有名的魔道教派，专门以下三滥的手法欺骗百姓，是我们正道门派的公敌！”
轰！
王启年只觉得天雷轰项，一时间眼冒金星，胸口剧痛，心脏仿佛要跳出胸腔。
欺骗！ 正道公敌！
“老人家，不要太着急，有什么事情慢慢说。”
王启年咳嗽了几声，脑中仍是一团乱麻。
但周围的围观村民却听得分明，无限震惊之后，渐渐找回了神智，有的村民实在忍不住，便大着胆子开口问。
“神仙，你刚才说的……都是真的？”
雾飞花有些不快：“我们有必要骗你吗？”
老淫棍则扮演了慈祥长者的角色：“此事千真万确……这七星门在苍溪州兴风作浪，受害者不计其数，我们正道门派早就想严厉打击，可惜他们神出鬼没，一直抓不到要害。 这次我和师妹途径此地，发现此地魔气惊人，便匆匆赶来……可惜却没抓到七星门的尾巴。”
一番话之后，所有的村民都惊呆了，只感觉整个世界仿佛在眼前崩溃坍塌，重构不能。
怎么可能，那明明是一个能帮助所有人求仙成道的神仙门派啊，怎么会是骗人的呢！
有个村民不甘心地问：“敢问神仙，七星门说人人都能成仙，也是假的吗？”
一时间，广场中特别安静，所有人都屏住了呼吸，等待老神仙的答案。 当然，他们此时心中也不清楚，如果老神仙说不能的话，又该如何是好。
“呵，人人成仙，这当然是真的。”
“不过，就凭那个魔道门派，别说是助人成仙，嘿嘿，被他们害的万劫不复的，简直数不胜数！”
村民们刚放下的心顿时又悬了起来：“万劫不复？”
“哼，他们所用的培根灵等药物都是异常廉价的残次品，而且也完全不懂使用方法，只会让人胡乱服用，然后再天价购买新药。 这么吃下去，嘿嘿，就算原本身负仙缘的修士，也要被这些毒药生生毁掉！”
雾飞花幽然补充：“其实这还算好的，就算吃坏了，终归只是毁了灵根……但七星门有的时候为了他们的魔功修行，甚至会以寻常百姓的性命为祭品，祭炼魔宝，那才叫惨绝人寰。”
老淫棍点点头：“嗯，上个月，他们刚在天东山发动了一次万灵血祭，嘿，方圆百里，数千生灵被血祭，简直惨不忍睹。”
“是啊，偏偏他们的万灵血祭并不完整，发动后那些村民半死不活，浑身溃烂融化，却就是死不掉，生生挣扎了七天七夜，唉，那股冲天的怨气倒是意外之喜了。”
两人一来一往，只将附近的村民吓得面无人色。
老淫棍面色一肃：“两年！
？ 他们在这里布局了这么久！ ？”
老村长简直要哭出来，“求神仙救救我们！”
片刻之后，周围的百来名村民齐齐跪倒：“求神仙救命！”
老淫棍又是一抬手，将周围村民同时扶起：“放心，我们既然路过此处，就不会对七星门的恶行袖手旁观……村长老人家，你带我们在村中走上一圈，我们要认真检查一番！
“好，小老儿这就给二位神仙带路！”
两名神仙，在上百名村民的跟随下在村中缓缓绕着圈子……不多时，便走到了村后的坟地外围，两人对视一眼，然后由雾飞花做出了惊骇的表情。
这是怎么回事！ ？”
老淫棍也一脸骇然：“这，这里是古战场吗？ 这么强的死气，至少要死过一百万人啊！
轰！
身后村民吓倒了一片！
老淫棍继续恐吓：“不对，这绝不是正常的死气积累，是有特殊的阵法作祟……好家伙，这是将附近的地脉灵气汇聚起来，以阴阳阵转化出来的死气！ 本来这种人造死气缺乏活动，但七星门却设计阵法，以王家村的生灵阳气ji发，一旦死气爆发，嘿，方圆千里寸草不生！
“以如此强大的死气温养出的天邪兵……到底会有何等威能啊！” 雾飞花轻掩小口，震惊万分，“他们什么时候埋了这么深的一笔！
“大概是前段时间被正道围剿，逼得走投无路……不过这天邪兵若是真的成了，日后兴风作浪，咱们正道门派也会大感头疼。
雾飞花咬咬牙：“师兄，你我合力，应该能破掉这阴阳生死阵？”
“……最多只有四成把握，不过再等下去，时刻都可能有死气爆发的危险。 哈，还好咱们今日卜卦，卦象有异，特地来此巡视，总算来得及时。
说话间，老淫棍目光凌厉，疾声厉喝：“现形！”
嗡！
一道黑色的天幕陡然出现在众人视线之中，乌云一般遮天蔽日！ 天幕之下鬼影重重，无数冤魂厉鬼被神仙的真言逼出真身，四处奔走。
附近的村民哪见过这等异象？ 一时间只以为末日将至，哭爹喊娘。
老淫棍和雾飞花相视一笑——这阴阳生死阵和暗黑天幕，自然是他们二人的杰作，以筑基下品和练气上品的修为，催动这样的幻术本来是有些吃力，但如果加上王陆提供的上品灵石，那就另说了。
不过，饶是如此，以他们的修为也撑不了多久，按照剧本，该走下一步了。
“师兄，这生死阵好生厉害！ 居然压他不住！”
“压不住也要压！ 如今百鬼现形，若不压下去就是死气爆发，你我都死无葬身之地！”
“可是，可是……我真的撑不住了！”
“撑不住也要撑！”
“恩，知道了！”
“……师妹，若是待会儿死气强度不降，你就一个人跑！”
“怎么可以丢下你，要死一起死！”
在这声嘶力竭的嘶吼中，两人演的越发投入。
而身后的村民，则越发心冷。
在人们愕然的目光中，一位俏丽的少女从破碎的黑幕中走了出来，秀气的眉毛轻轻拧着，露出几分不满。
“唉，你们两个，在搞什么啊！
老淫棍和雾飞花大难不死，带着满头的冷汗愕然当场，片刻之后，匆忙跪拜下去。
“参见圣女大人！”

Shortly after the Nine Regions Intelligence Revenue Service was founded, the first leading team of a total of five people left the Marquis County that same evening.
The reason for this was very simple: as a sect that wanted to establish their initial starting base, Marquis County has too many birth defects.
First, the County Magistrate’s attitude towards Immortal Cultivation Sect was relatively lukewarm. For example, the Seven Stars Sect could be considered as influential locally here, but they actually could not wantonly attract followers here and could only be a guest in the County Magistrate’s guest house. The dirty old man, He Yun, a Six Stars Elder, had to pay the bill for all the women that he played with fair and square. Cultivators here simply could not go rampant; they didn’t even have many privileges. As the place where there was a battle against the wild beast in ancient times, Marquis County’s background was very solid.
Second, if they wanted to establish their initial starting base in Marquis County, it would be extremely conspicuous. If they wantonly levied the intelligence tax here, not only would it attract the pressure from the Great Ming Country, it would also bound to meet resistance from the Seven Stars Sect.
With these several overlapping factors, leaving was an inevitable choice.
The answer was obvious...
“Ha! Dog Ear Mountain, I’m back!”
Facing the morning sun, the Director of the Nine Regions Intelligence Revenue Service, or the Wisdom Sect’s Sect Leader, Wang Lu, with a smug smile, loudly laughed at the Dog Ear Mountain.
“... Are you sure you want to develop your force from this deserted outskirt ridge?” Wisdom Sect’s Holy Maiden Feng Ling asked with a puzzled look. “This is totally incompatible with your lofty ambition to be a powerful man in the Nine Regions.”
The fatty also began to complain, “Senior Brother, why come to this desolate countryside? The living condition here is too harsh.”
Sect Leader Wang Lu snorted. “If we don’t come to this harsh secluded ridge, but instead directly go to a prefectural capital, it would be a surprise if we don’t become excrement before sundown! Although behind us is the Spirit Sword Sect, we still have no big figure and no money, we’re basically a rundown sect! Moreover, you should know the argument of how a single spark can start a fire in the prairie, so we will walk on the path of occupying-the-outskirts-to-surround-a-city—generally. This is the single most important path for the development of a newly established sect. If we succeed to some extent someday, our future would be limitless. Let alone Wang Family Village has the advantage of being blessed by the heaven—with an abundant spiritual energy, which could easily lead to a miracle. This would provide an enormous help to the initial development of the sect. In the future, when we scale up, we can lead a revolution… Oh, wrong, this place would become the Immortal Sacred Land. In fact, this place is more superior to those prosperous, bustling cities.”
The nearby six stars dirty old man sighed. “Director is really farsighted; you have a long-term vision, and your words are really on point. In the past, the Seven Stars Sect’s Sect Leader gathered all of us six stars elders to the main base to jointly discuss the arrangement for the Wang Family Village. After racking out our brains, the plan that came out, in general, was just like this. Moreover, there are many parts not as thorough as Director.”
Wang Lu smiled as he approvingly nodded. “You clearly understand this truth, promoting you is not in vain. If you do well, many benefits will be yours.”
He has a look of a faithful old servant! No one would ever think that just a day before, the two were basically enemies. Even more difficult to think was a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator willingly submitted to a low-level Qi Cultivating Stage young cultivator.
This was the ability of a leader. As a leader, one did not need to be more specialized than others. The important thing was to create a good team, let them display the limits of their abilities, and bring the team to victory.
“I’ve already told you on our way here the specific on what needs to be done, so you just need to do that. The Seven Stars Sect has already deeply rooted in the Wang Family Village, it would not be easy to get rid of them.”
The dirty old man nodded as his face turned serious. “Rest assured, Director, I and Feihua will not lose our first battle after we renounced the dark and sought the light!”
“Em, I wish you success.”
With that, Wang Lu patted the dirty old man’s shoulder, turned around and descended the mountain.
The dirty old man and Wu Feihua looked at each other, smiled, cast their respective spell, and then leisurely floated towards the Wang Family Village. ——
Wang Family Village of the Dog Ear Mountain was a peaceful and comfortable village in the Marquis County. It has abundant produce, and the folks there were simple and honest. It was just like a paradise.
It was just that in recent years, the village had undergone a huge change. The people gradually turned violent. The smile on the face of the villagers that were so common in the past became increasingly rare… It was replaced instead by insatiable “hunger and thirst”, as well as full of resentment towards the gods and men; the village had been flooded with disturbing hostility.
This morning, several villagers gathered in a dilapidated wooden house. Among which was a young hunter, a stout blacksmith… furthermore, there were also several peasant women with a resentful face.
These people entered the room and greeted each other, yet their voice sounded weary and tired.
“Brother Zhang, you look like sh*t.”
“Not for a long time. Every night, when I close my eyes, I always have a nightmare. And it’s always the same dream about a grotesque monster. I would then wake up already drenched in cold sweat. I could not sleep at all.”
“Yes, in the village, who can sleep well these days? It’s all because of that little devil!”
Not long ago, Wang Lu had cleaved two Seven Stars Sect cultivators and one Public Envoy. Since then, many villagers fell into a panic. They worried that Wang Lu, this monster, would be the scourge of the whole village. They also worried that the Seven Stars Sect would put the blame on the village.
“That little devil is really hateful. Not only did he severe our link to Immortality, but he also provoked a future disaster… Alas, the whole village is implicated by him!”
“Yeah, I heard from the people in the county that there was a boy who, without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, disrespected a Daoist Immortal. As a result, all the people in the village died of a sudden illness, nobody survived!”
“You’re kidding, right? I just feel a headache these two days…”
“What do you think?”
“What do I think? Didn’t we discuss this several days ago already? First, we held that little devil’s family hostage, and then we apologize to the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals!”
“Wang Fugui? He… he hadn’t done anything evil; we shouldn’t do this to him.”
“Isn’t it enough that he sired a child that is lower than pigs and dogs!?” That village woman shrilly shouted, “Don’t tell me you want to wait until everyone dies because of him before you agree!”
“Sister-in-law Liu, what are you talking about!? Wasn’t I also implicated by him? I just thought that it would be hard to take that little devil’s parents hostage. Moreover, previously, didn’t Xiaohu also oppose to this?”
At this time, a scholarly-looking villager laughed coldly. “Xiaohu? Do you think he is still the honest and kindhearted Xiaohu? What a joke, how do you guys know for sure that his mind wasn’t confused by that devil!? That devil even killed the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals and the Public Envoy, so why would he leave Wang Xiaohu alive!? These last few days, that devil isn’t here, which is a rare opportunity, so why would Wang Xiaohu want to stop us? Why would he defend Wang Fugui’s family!?”
As soon as these words got out, the room suddenly quieted down. A more violent mood rapidly brewed.
Inside the house, everyone was surprised. “A Daoist Master is here!?”
They immediately pushed out the door and went out, only to see two cultivators, shrouded in a pink veil, under the eyes of the villagers, slowly descend from the sky like the magic clouds.
These two were naturally the dirty old man and Wu Feihua.
After they had landed on the center of an open area in the Village, the two were quickly surrounded by dozens of people who focused on them with a wide variety of complex look.
“Are they… Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals?”
“I don’t think so. I heard that the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals would always have stars embroidered in their dress.”
“Then who are they?”
“…” Like previously told by Wang Lu, the dirty old man acted as if he ignored his surrounding and just frowned, looking on all directions as if searching for something.
Before long, a grey-haired old man tremblingly walked over. He was the Village Head of the Wang Family Village, Wang Qinian.
A few days ago, after the chaos made by Wang Lu, this Village Head always had sleepless nights. In several days, he seemed to get older by twenty years. No longer was he a hoary robust middle age man, instead, he was now a limp old man.
Wang Qinian only stammered out half of what he wanted to say before he was interrupted by Wu Feihua.
“What a thick devil aura!”
Wang Qinian was taken aback. Daoist Immortal was indeed Daoist Immortal, with a glance, they immediately recognize the evil that was in this place!
After a quick thought, the old man quickly fell on his knees. “Daoist Immortals, please save us! A few days ago, a devil made a crime in this village, and now, the whole village is in imminent peril!”
However, the old man’s knees didn’t reach the ground. An invisible force had propped him up.
Dirty old man He Yun beckoned with his hand. “Please stand up. We’re here to get rid of the devil.”
Wang Qinian was extremely grateful. “Thank you for the great kindness, Daoist Masters! It’s just that the devil is too powerful, so Daoist Immortals should exercise caution. Previously, the Daoist Immortals of the Seven Stars Sect were killed by that devil…”
As soon as he said that, the dirty old man reached out his hand and his mouth shouted out, “Clean!” Suddenly, a mass of blue air suddenly appeared in the sky, coagulated into clouds, and then fell from the sky, shrouding the close to a hundred villagers that were present there. As soon as they were enveloped by that blue air, all of them felt relaxed, free from dirt, and full of energy!
“Immortal Method! This is Immortal Method!?”
Several villagers cried out in disbelief. Before this, the Seven Stars Sect’s Daoist Immortals had also used Immortal methods, but those Daoist Immortals’ Immortal Methods were not this magical!
Hearing the shouts from the people around him, the dirty old man inwardly sniggered. “What fools. They’re actually making a fuss just for this clean spell!”
Wu Feihua also secretly thought that this was funny. However, her face was still as calm as still water. “Senior Brother, your exorcism spell is really effective… The air in this place was indeed contaminated by the Seven Stars Sect’s devil aura.”
“Mm, just now that exorcism spell is actually designed to be used against Seven Stars Sect’s devils, but since the effect is so obvious, then that’s good.”
The two people talked like professionals, treating the matter very lightly. However, the villagers who listened to them were absolutely terrified.
Wang Qinian mustered up his courage and interjected, “Excuse me, Daoist Immortals. Just now, you said the Seven Stars Sect… what exactly is going on?”
The dirty old man explained in a righteous tone, “The Seven Stars Sect is an infamous devil sect in the Blue River Region. They were known for using despicable tricks to deceive common people. They are the public enemy of us, the righteous sects!”
Boom!
Wang Qinian suddenly felt as if he was struck by a lighting. Stars appeared in his eyes as he felt a severe pain in his chest, as if his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Devil Sect! Despicable trick! Deceive! Public enemy of the righteous path!
“Old man, don’t be too anxious, every problem has its solution.”
Wang Qinian coughed a few times, however, his mind was still in a mess.
However, the surround villagers have heard all of that. After a moment of shock, they gradually were able to think clearly again. Some villagers could not help but muster up their courage to ask.
“Daoist Immortals, just now, are all that you said… true?”
Wu Feihua was upset. “Why do we need to deceive you?”
The dirty old man then played the role of a kindly elder. “It’s true… The Seven Stars Sect have stirred up trouble in Blue River Region with countless victims. We, from the righteous sects, have long wanted to crack them down, but alas, they were elusive, always disappearing before we arrived. This time, junior sister and I, on our way, found out that this place has a thick devil aura, so we hastily came… What a pity, we can’t even catch their tail.”
Upon hearing these words, the villagers were stunned; they suddenly felt as if their whole world completely collapsed before their eyes.
How was it possible? They were obviously an Immortal Cultivation sect that could help people achieve immortality, how could they deceive people!?
One of the villagers was unwilling to accept this; he asked, “Excuse me, Daoist Immortals, may I ask if what the Seven Stars Sect said, that everyone can become immortal, is also a lie?”
Instantly, the square became particularly quiet. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the answer from the Daoist Immortals. Certainly, their hearts were unclear. If the Daoist Immortals said they couldn't, they didn’t know what to do. However, they still had to ask this question!
Phew! Suddenly, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
“However, for that devil sect, not only did they not help people becoming immortal, heh, they also harm people beyond hope; their victims are simply numerous!”
The villagers, who just had their hopes back, felt that their hearts sank again. “Beyond hope?”
“Humph, the Spirit Root Development Pills and other drugs that they use are all cheap knock-offs. Not only that, they completely don’t know the application method. They just let people casually take this drug which they put a sky-high price for it. Using the drug with this method, heh, even if someone has a natural affinity with Immortality, that someone would probably be ruined by this poison!”
Wu Feihua quietly added, “Actually, it’s not too bad. Even if you consume this knock-off pills, ultimately, it would just ruin your spirit root… However, sometimes, for their devil cultivation, the Seven Stars Sect would take the life of common people as the sacrificial offering to refine devil treasures. That’s really tragic.”
The dirty old man nodded. “Yes. Last month, in Eastern Way Prefecture, they performed the ten thousand souls blood sacrifice. Hmph, in the radius of fifty kilometers, several thousands of people were affected by these blood sacrifice ritual; the scene is too horrible to look at.”
“Yes. It turns out their Ten Thousand Souls Blood Sacrifice is incomplete. After the ritual, the villagers were barely alive. Their whole body were festered badly, but they actually can’t die yet. They remained in that miserable state, struggling for seven days and seven nights. Alas, that evil sect was actually happy with their grievances.”
The two people’s back and forth conversation nearly scared the nearby villagers to death.
Village Head Wang Qinian stammered, “Daoist Immortals… the Seven Stars Sect have been here for more than two years, would, would they blood sacrifice us…”
The dirty old man’s face turned solemn. “Two years!? They have been here for that long!?”
“Yes-yes!” Old Village Head immediately cried out, “Daoist Immortals, please save us!”
A moment later, around a hundred villagers kneeled down one by one. “Daoist Immortals, please help us!”
The dirty old man held out his hand to help them get up. “Rest assured. Since we’re already here, we will not stand idly by… Village Head, why don’t you lead us to walk in the village; we have to carefully inspect this place!”
“Ah, sure. This old man will be a guide for the two Daoist Immortals!”
—— The two Daoist Immortals, followed by around a hundred villagers, slowly walked around the village… Before long, they walked to the cemetery outside the village. They looked at each other in a glance, and then, Wu Feihua made a horrified expression.
“What a thick aura of the dead! What is happening here!?”
The dirty old man then put on an aghast expression. “Is-is this place an ancient battlefield? To have such a strong dead aura, there should be, at the very least, one million dead people!”
Boom!
The villagers behind them were scared shitless!
The dirty old man continued to scare them, “Wrong! This is not a normal dead air accumulation, there’s a special array that causes this… my goodness! They transformed the nearby spiritual energy alignment using the Yinyang Array into dead aura! Originally, this kind of man-made dead aura is inactive, but this Seven Stars Sect’s array used the Wang Family Village people’s Yang energy to activate the dead aura. Once this dead aura burst out, in a radius of five hundred kilometers from here, hah, not even a blade of grass could grow. However, these buried heavenly evil soldiers have yet to form!”
“Once such a thick dead aura rose, these buried heavenly evil soldiers… how much powerful would they be!?” Wu Feihua covered her small mouth, looking extremely shocked. “When did they bury this!?”
“Probably some time ago when the righteous sects encircled them, so they had no other choice… However, if these heavenly evil soldiers really rise up, they would create trouble in the future and give our righteous sects a big headache.”
Wu Feihua gritted her teeth. “Senior Brother, do you think our joint effort would be able to destroy this Yinyang array?”
“... At most, I am only forty percent assured. However, if we wait any longer, there’s a possibility that the dead aura would burst out. Hm, fortunately today, the divination told us to come to this place to inspect, so we found this just in time. Very well, Junior Sister, let’s begin!”
With that, the dirty old man’s eyes turned fierce as he swiftly shouted, “Appear!”
Whoosh!
A large black veil suddenly appeared in everyone’s line of sight, like a dark cloud that blotted out the sun! Underneath that black veil, there were layers upon layers of shadows of ghosts; countless malicious ghosts had been forced by the Daoist Immortal’s spell to show their real appearance, rushing around in all direction!
Which villagers has ever seen such a scene? Immediately, they thought the doomsday has come and cried out for their moms and dads.
The dirty old man slyly smiled—this Yinyang Life and Death Array and black veil were naturally his two masterpieces. It was somewhat difficult for a low-level Foundation Establishment like him or high-level Qi Cultivating Stage to push out such an illusion, however, if coupled with a few high-grade spirit stones provided by Wang Lu, that was another matter.
Even so, he couldn’t sustain this illusion for long. Thus, according to the script, he would do the next step.
“Senior Brother, this Life and Death Array is very fierce! We can’t even suppress it!”
“We still have to try! Right now these hundreds of ghosts have shown their true form. If we don’t suppress it, the dead aura will burst out, and you and I will die without burial!”
“But, but… I really can’t hold it anymore!”
“You can do it, don’t give up!”
“Uh, okay!”
“... Junior Sister, if the dead aura’s intensity will still not drop later on, you have to run away!”
“How can I leave you alone! If we must die, we must die together!”
The two hoarsely shouted at each other; the two were increasingly engrossed in the play.
However, the villagers behind them were getting more and more cold.
Under the people’s stunned eyes, a pretty girl came out from that black veil. Her delicate eyebrows slightly frowned, showing her dissatisfaction.
“What are you two doing here!?”
The dirty old man and Wu Feihua had just escaped from calamity; with heads full of cold sweat, they were stunned on the spot. A moment later, in consternation, they hurriedly kowtowed.
“Pay respect to the Holy Maiden!”

一会儿，众人都离去。
原本人杂的长廊上，一下子便只剩下他们两个。 “不进去？”
他看一眼还在发呆的她。
夏星辰回神，摇头，“我一个人进去就好，你在外面等着吧。
白夜擎睐她一眼，长臂一伸，忽然将她的手再自然不过的牵住了。
男人手心霸道的裹住她纤细的手背，那灼热直逼而来，透过手背上的肌肤直窜进她心底。
她心下一跳。
这样的感觉，让她心跳加速，又惶然不安。
整个人就像踩在云端上一样，虽然飘飘然。 可是，却也如履薄冰，好似一不小心就有可能重跌下来，跌得粉身碎骨。
白夜擎二话没说，直接推开了病房的门，牵着她，先她一步进去。
夏星辰深目看着他宽厚的背影，心下一时间各种情愫都有。
这个男人，身份那般尊贵，次次出行都有着如钢铁般的防护，可见他的健康于他的整个团队来说有多重要。
“都进来了，还发呆？” 白夜擎扯了下夏星辰的手，“过去吧，但是，你只有十分钟的时间。”
夏星辰回神，看他一眼，目光里感激之情已彰显无疑。
良久，她才转而看向躺在床上的夏国鹏。
夏国鹏这会儿也见到了自己的女儿，简直不敢相信，一下子就从床上半坐起了身，“星辰！” 这会儿。
偌大的监控室里，四个人，被安排成上宾之客。
“啊……怎么会这样？” 李玲一双眼盯着屏幕，一脸的不相信，“总统先生怎么会牵夏星辰的手？”
随着她的话响起，此刻，其他三人，也在紧盯着眼前这副画面。
老太太若有所思，而许岩，眼神幽暗得一丝光线都没有。
许久，目光都只停留在屏幕上男人和女人紧紧相扣的手上。
可是，怎么可能呢？ 他们明明是彼此完全没有交集的两个世界的人啊！
夏星空盯着那画面，眼中幽怨和剑一样锋利。 死也不肯相信他们国家的总统会和这么一个平凡而且还带着个拖油瓶的夏星辰手牵手！ 一定是有什么特别理由的!没错！
她在心里暗自喃喃着，心下的嫉妒好不容易被自己的自我安慰压下去一些，一侧目，却又将许岩黯然神伤的眼神尽收眼底。
一见父亲几夕之间便变得瘦骨嶙峋的样子，夏星辰心有难受。 走到病床边，眼眶一下子就红了。
“你怎么能进来这儿？” 夏国鹏枯槁的手，激动的握住她的。
病得太厉害，连声音都有些发抖。
“是他带我进来的。” 夏星辰在床边上坐下，红着眼眶回头。
白夜擎深目对上她通红的眼，缓步走了过去，站在了床前。
而且，还真是总统先生！ ！
白夜擎微微颔首，沉声安抚：“夏先生，不用太担心，科研院已经取得了很大的突破，有效药物很快会研发出来。”
他的话，很简单，却天生有种让人觉得安定人心的力量。
即使生病也不能放弃，一定要打起精神。 外面，奶奶和星空她们都还在等你出去。” 夏国鹏把女儿也搂紧了。
他的手，不小心碰到她脸上的口罩，口罩掉在了一旁的垃圾桶内，夏星辰完全没有注意。
白夜擎拧着眉在一旁看，只沉默着，并不说话。
等到父女俩把话说完了，她从床上站起身来，他凶巴巴的瞪了她一眼。
她心里本就沉重，他这一记冷锐的眼神投射过来，她心里一委屈，鼻尖就酸了，好不容易憋住的眼泪差点就要落下来。
怎么又做错什么惹他了不成？
“我怎么叮嘱你的？” 白夜擎咬牙。
“只有十分钟。” 夏星辰看了眼手表，“可现在才超过几十秒。”
“下次再来这儿的机会，你不会有了！” 说罢，他把隔离口罩一层一层挂到她耳廓上。
心下顿时各种情愫都翻涌出来，她眼眶一下子就泛了红。
几乎是下意识的把口罩要取下来。
“你取下来试试！”
她倔强，双目盯着他，“这是你的！ 你戴上！”
白夜擎把她的手抓下来，动作一点都不温柔，压低声音道：“别给我再乱动！ 你要敢感染上，我会把你从家里扔出去，到时候，再别想见儿子一面！”
他声音很低，只有他们俩可以听见。
听在她耳里，她却觉得一点都讨厌不起来。
“那……如果你感染了怎么办？”
“我身体素质没你那么差！”
一旁，夏国鹏病得眼神混沌不清，但是，就这么看着，也还隐隐约约觉得这两人之间，明显有什么异样的情愫在蔓延。
！
这……不可能吧！
夏国鹏也是不敢相信，可是，眼前的这一幕又让他不得不这么怀疑。
看过父亲后，夏星辰心里安心了许多。

They were the only two left in the corridor. Just before he was unreachable, but now he got so close to her…
“What are you waiting for?” He took a look at her.
Xia Xingchen shook her head and said. "I'll go alone. You can wait outside. It’s so dangerous…"
All of a sudden, Bai Yeqing stretched out his arm and held her hand in a natural way.
His hand wrapped around her slender hand, and the warmth penetrated the skin on the back of her hand, directly rushing into her heart.
Her heart was pounding faster.
At the same time, she felt quite nervous.
She was like stepping on the edge of clouds, free but also like treading on thin ice; once accidents happened, she would fall down into pieces.

When the father and daughter had finished speaking, she got up and found his fierce eyes.
She was already with a heavy heart, and when seeing his cold eyes, her felt more grieved, the tears she just held back almost gushed out again.
What’s wrong with him?
“How did I warn you?” Bai Yeqing bit his teeth, asking and taking off his mask.
“I have only ten minutes.” Xia Xingchen checked her watch, “but I just used a few more dozen seconds.”
“You won’t have another chance to come here!” Then he put the mask on her face layer by layer, and Xia Xingchen could see his angry face.

On the one side, Xia Guopeng couldn't see them clearly, but with his blurred vision, he could still feel that there was something unusual between the two.
His daughter and Mr. President… Are in relationship?!
This is… Impossible!
Xia Guopeng couldn’t believe his eyes, but this scene was authentic, especially the way Mr. President looked at Xingchen – she was special to him…
… … After seeing her father, Xia Xingchen felt much better.

Standing in lines of 8 with flags on all sides, three of them displayed the insignia of the royal family: the gray tower with the two pikes. Additionally, on one side there was a flag with a tower and a horse’s head on top. Carving through the memories at the back of his mind, he remembered that this was likely the symbol of the Hawes family of the northern border.\nOne of the cavalrymen stepped out of the ranks and yelled: “I am Lehman Hawes, the messenger of King Timothy. With me, I have brought the resolution of the King, pull down the drawbridge.”\n“Your certificate?” Petrov stretched his head forward and asked loudly.\nHearing his question, the cavalryman took a bow and arrow from his back, tied a piece of paper to the arrow and shot it directly to on top of the city wall.\nOne of his guards immediately went over and picked up the arrow for Petrov. When he unfolded the parchment, he saw some faint crisscrossing golden threads embedded at the bottom of the document, and there at the lower right corner was the seal of the royal family, which indicated that he was indeed the new King’s messenger.\nSeeing this, Petrov took a deep breath and shouted, “Lower the bridge and open the gate.” He could already roughly guess the content of the so-called resolution – it was undoubtedly related to Roland Wimbledon. Since the other party wasn’t a fraud, they also had no reason to refuse the new King’s envoy. Otherwise it was equivalent to declaring the new King, and the Kingdom of Graycastle as their enemy. And in case this news were to spread out, the other families would certainly come to target the Honeysuckle territory without any hesitation, and the currently suppressed undercurrent would instantly rebound.\nHowever, since Timothy had only sent 50 people to inquire about the situation in the Western Territory, one of the Prince’s speculation had been confirmed – the new King, at present, was unable to rule over the Western Territory.\nSince the Prince, His Royal Highness, was able to repel the Duke’s coalition who had more than a 1000 soldier, I’m afraid that these fifty people can only return without having any achievement.\nOf course, His Highness has to be informed about this development as soon as possible.\nThinking until here, he called the Knight from before, “Westeros, take three short-tailed horses with you, interchange them during the ride, so that you can reach Border Town as early as possible. When you’re there tell His Highness that Timothy’s men have come.”\n“As you bid,” Westeros nodded.\nAs the Knight turned around and left, Petrov sighed. “Let’s go and meet the new King’s envoy.”\nWhen Petrov appeared at the city gate, with the exception of the ten people riding at the front, whose spirits seemed to be trembling with excitement, the rest of the Cavaliers all seemed a little sluggish, they were sitting with a crooked body on their horses, as if they could fall off any time.\n“Welcome, Sir Lehman,” Petrov welcomed him with a nod. “I’m the stronghold manager belonging to the Honeysuckle Family, Petrov Hull.”\nThe word ‘stronghold manager’ left a bad aftertaste in his mouth. If he had really been in charge of the Western Border, being the Duke of the stronghold, he would never have had to salute towards an envoy. He wouldn’t even need to greet him at the gate. Instead, he could just stay inside the Lord’s castle, waiting for the other party to come to him.\n“I have heard of your name at the Cold Wind Range, ‘Acting Duke’.” Lehman dismounted and walked over with a smile. “The Western Border is indeed a strange territory, even after assembling a vast army, Duke Ryan actually couldn’t conquer such a small town. Moreover, he even lost his own life, which is a rare circumstance for the Kingdom of Graycastle. Of course, for the Honeysuckle Family, this must have been good news.”\nPetrov automatically ignored the irony coming from his words, “Are your men alright? They look to be a little… unwell.”\n“Don’t mind them,” Lehman glanced backward, “They probably haven’t acclimatized themselves after rushing through the whole journey, they will be better after some rest. To be honest, this region is just too hot.”\n“It’s only because the North is too cold,” Since the other person seemed to not to care about the matter, Petrov was too lazy to pay attention further to the subject. “I’m wondering why sir envoy has come from the Cold Wind Range, rather than from King’s City.”\n“That is because His Majesty Timothy Wimbledon is currently in the Northern Territory,” Lehman answered bluntly. “Duke Essie thought had thought he could take advantage of the weakened state of the Northern Border Guards to instigate a rebellion. After being suspected of starting a revolution, King Timothy had no other choice than to put down the revolt.”\nRebellion? Perot frowned, that does not meet with common sense. Although the Border Guards were put together of Knights and mercenaries from all over the kingdom, most of the members were still the Duke’s own men. So how could it be that he had substantial losses created by the rebellion? Remembering the letter within Duke Ryan had written about his plans to annex the North, Petrov created a bad image within his mind… Could it be that Timothy Wimbledon had the same kind of idea?\n“That being the case, what is the King’s current decision?”\n“He has issued a recall order,” Lehman stated, “His Majesty sent me to see if the Western Territory has also sunken into a state of chaos, caused by war. If I remember correctly, prior to the Months of Demons, the King had sent a recall order to Roland Wimbledon, but until today he still hasn’t returned to King’s City.”\n“The instruments should have been forwarded to the stronghold five months ago, but unlike the previous Lords, Lord Roland didn’t choose to return to the stronghold and take refuge here during the Months of Demons,” Petrov paused. “He decided to instead stay inside Border Town and lead his people against the demonic beasts. So, for that reason he couldn’t immediately set out to King’s City and follow the King’s orders.\n“By now the end of the Months of Demons had been almost three months ago,” Lehman didn’t waver in his duty. “The King has sent me to escort the Prince back to King’s City.”\n“We will set out tomorrow morning.”\nTraveling at a regular pace, they should arrive at Border Town in three days, while my Knight will move through day and night, and should be able to deliver the message after only one night and day. This way His Royal Highness should have enough time to prepare to deal with them. I, Petrov, can only do so much.\nWhen the group reached the stronghold’s barracks, Petrov stopped, “This is the place where the Duke’s Knights were stationed, so staying here you should get a good rest, dinner will be sent later to you. As for Sir Lehman,” Petrov looked at Lehman Hawes, “there will be a hearty dinner prepared for you, please be sure to attend.”\n“Thank you for your generosity, Sir Petrov,” the latter laughed.\n* After dinner, when Lehman returned to camp and stepped into the central tent, he was immediately surrounded by several people.\n“What’s the situation?” He asked.\n“We are surrounded on all sides by people who are keeping a close watch over us. They have also stationed around a hundred troops at the gates, but most of them don’t possess a whole armor, so they should belong to the city patrol,” one of his men reported. “It seems that the Lord doesn’t trust us.”\n“At least it appeared that our intelligence was correct, the information I gathered at the banquet also confirmed this point,” Lehman spoke in a hushed tone. “After the Duke was defeated, most of the Knights were arrested and brought to Border Town, so there aren’t many Knight’s left for them to use in combat.”\nBefore he had arrived here, he had gathered detailed intelligence about the current situation in Longsong Stronghold. The task given by His Majesty was very simple, which was, to discover the reasons for the Duke’s loss, and then to take the appropriate measures to take gain control over the Western Territory as quickly as possible.\n“What’s with those who took that medicine…?”\n“They will soon reach their limit,” said the other, “as long as we give them pills, they will do anything.”\nThe messenger group was also only a pretext, of their team of fifty, the numbers of real Knights were only counted at thirteen, the other were mercenaries disguised as knights. Under the influence of the church’s pills, they were more obedient than the loyalest of hounds, while at the same time being even more ferocious than demonic beasts. They were also the key to Lehman’s plan in capturing the gate. According to his plan, a 1,500 people strong militia were slowly nearing the stronghold and as long as they opened the gates, the city would fall into their hands.\n“Hand out the pills, then have ten men stay behind to deal with the patrol and send the others to the East Gate.” Lehman finally gave his orders."

第一百九十二章
来者约五十人左右，全部身着铠甲，在阳光下闪闪发光。 队伍中的四面旗帜，有三面是象征灰堡王室的高塔双枪旗，还有一面是高塔马头旗，他在脑中思索了会，认出这应该是北境霍斯家族的标志。
骑士队伍中走出一人，高喊道：“我是雷曼.霍斯，提费科国王的使者，我带来了王都的决议，请放下吊桥。”
“凭证呢？” 培罗探出头，大声问道。
对方从背后摘下弓箭，将一张纸卷绑在箭上，直接射上城头。
身边的侍卫立刻为他捡来箭矢，培罗展开羊皮纸，只见文书下方隐隐嵌着交错的金丝，右下角盖着温布顿王室印章，确实是新王的使者无误。
“落桥，开门。” 培罗深吸口气，他已经大概猜到所谓王都决议的内容了——十有八九和罗兰.温布顿有关。
不过提费科仅派出一支五十人的使者团前来问询情况倒也印证了四王子的说法——新王或许现在没工夫管辖西境之地。
既然王子殿下连一千多人的公爵联军都能击退，这五十人恐怕也只能无功而返。
当然，这个消息还是需要尽快通知罗兰殿下。
想到这儿，他叫来之前的那名骑士，“维斯特洛，你带上三匹短尾马，一路换乘，尽快将这个消息告诉边陲镇领主。 就说，提费科的人马来了。”
维斯特洛点头道。
看到骑士转身离去，培罗叹了口气，“我们下去迎接新王使者吧。”
站在城门口时他才发现，除了走在队伍最前面的十来人显得精神抖擞外，其余骑士看上去有些萎靡，坐在马上佝偻着身子，仿佛随时要倒下来一般。
“你好，雷曼爵士，”培罗点头致意道，“我是要塞管理者，金银花家族的培罗.赫尔蒙。”
要塞管理者一词让他感到有些涩口。 假若自己真的是西境执掌、要塞公爵，自不必向使者行礼，甚至不用在门口迎接对方，只用待在领主城堡，等待对方求见就好。
“我在寒风岭就听过你的名字，「代公爵大人」，”雷曼翻身下马，走到他面前笑了笑，“你们西境还真是个奇怪的地方，莱恩公爵集合大军竟没能打下一个小镇，反而赔上了自己的性命，这在灰堡可不多见。 当然，对金银花来说这或许是个好消息。”
培罗自动忽略了他话里的讽刺，“你的部下还好吗？ 他们看上去有点……难受。”
“不用管他们，”雷曼回头瞟了一眼，“大概是一路奔波加水土不服，休息阵子就好了。 老实说，这地方也太热了。”
“是北方太冷了，”既然对方不在乎，培罗也懒得再理会这事，“我很好奇为什么陛下的使者为什么会从寒风岭出发，而不是来自王都？”
“因为提费科陛下此时正在北境，”他直言道，“艾斯公爵趁着边境卫队实力空虚之际在北方制造暴动，涉嫌叛乱，国王不得不发兵平叛。”
叛乱？ 培罗皱起眉头，这不符合常理，边境卫队虽然有来自灰堡各地的骑士和佣兵，但大部分成员仍是公爵本人的手下，哪有自己部下损失惨重的情况下发起叛乱的道理？ 想起莱恩公爵本打算趁着这个机会吞并北地的信件，他心中升起一股不好的预感……莫非提费科.温布顿打的是同样的主意？
“那么王都的决议是什么？”
“召回令，”雷曼说道，“陛下派我来此的目的正是不想看到西境也陷入战乱之中。 如果我没记错的话，早在邪魔之月时，国王陛下就向罗兰.温布顿寄来了召回令，可他现在依然没有返回王都。”
“该文书送至要塞的时间应该是在五个月前，不过罗兰殿下并没有像往年那些领主一样，在邪月降临前返回要塞避难，”培罗顿了顿，“当时他正在边陲镇领导他的人民抵御邪兽的侵袭，没法立刻启程返回王都。”
“如今邪魔之月已经结束快三个月了，”雷曼不可置否道，“国王派我来护送他回王都。”
“你们打算什么时候前往边陲镇？”
“明天一早便出发。” 正常赶路的话，抵达小镇需要三天时间，自己派出的骑士日夜兼程的话，一天一晚就能将消息送到，这样罗兰殿下也应该能做好应对的准备，培罗想，自己所能做的，也只有这么多了。
带着使者团一行人来到要塞营地，他停下脚步道，“这里原本是公爵骑士团的驻扎地，你们就在这里好好休息一晚吧，晚餐会有专人送到。 至于使者先生，”他看向雷曼.霍斯，“城堡会为你举办一场丰盛的晚宴，请务必参加。”
“多谢你的慷慨，培罗爵士。” 后者笑道。
晚宴结束后，雷曼返回营地，走入中央大帐篷，几名手下立刻围了上来。
“情况怎么样？” 他问。
“四周都有人在监视，出口处还驻有一支近百人的部队，不过大部分没有完备的盔甲，应该是城市巡逻队，”一人汇报道。 “看来领主大人并不放心我们。”
雷曼沉声道。 “公爵战败后，大部分骑士都被抓去了边陲镇，要塞里能用于作战的精锐并不多。” 在抵达此地之前，他就已经详细了解过长歌要塞的情况。
提费科陛下交代给他的任务也十分简单，那就是打探清楚公爵失败的缘由，然后采取相应的措施，尽早夺取西境控制权。
“那些服药者……状态如何？”
“已经快到极限了，”另一人说道，“现在只要给他们药丸，任何事他们都愿意去做。”
使者团不过是个幌子，一支五十人的队伍，真正的骑士仅有一十三位，其他都是假扮成骑士的雇佣兵，在教会药丸影响下，他们现在比猎犬还要听话，比邪兽还要凶残。 这正是雷曼夺取城门的关键。
“分发药丸，让十人留下来对付巡逻队，其他人向东门方向进发。” 他下令道。

Chapter 192 Under the curtain of the night
About 50 people had come, they were all dressed in armor which was sparkling in the sun. Standing in lines of 8 with flags on all sides, three of them displayed the insignia of the royal family: the gray tower with the two pikes. Additionally, on one side there was a flag with a tower and a horse’s head on top. Carving through the memories at the back of his mind, he remembered that this was likely the symbol of the Hawes family of the northern border.
One of the cavalrymen stepped out of the ranks and yelled: “I am Lehman Hawes, the messenger of King Timothy. With me, I have brought the resolution of the King, pull down the drawbridge.”
“Your certificate?” Petrov stretched his head forward and asked loudly.
Hearing his question, the cavalryman took a bow and arrow from his back, tied a piece of paper to the arrow and shot it directly to on top of the city wall.
One of his guards immediately went over and picked up the arrow for Petrov. When he unfolded the parchment, he saw some faint crisscrossing golden threads embedded at the bottom of the document, and there at the lower right corner was the seal of the royal family, which indicated that he was indeed the new King’s messenger.
Seeing this, Petrov took a deep breath and shouted, “Lower the bridge and open the gate.” He could already roughly guess the content of the so-called resolution – it was undoubtedly related to Roland Wimbledon. Since the other party wasn’t a fraud, they also had no reason to refuse the new King’s envoy. Otherwise it was equivalent to declaring the new King, and the Kingdom of Graycastle as their enemy. And in case this news were to spread out, the other families would certainly come to target the Honeysuckle territory without any hesitation, and the currently suppressed undercurrent would instantly rebound.
However, since Timothy had only sent 50 people to inquire about the situation in the Western Territory, one of the Prince’s speculation had been confirmed – the new King, at present, was unable to rule over the Western Territory.
Since the Prince, His Royal Highness, was able to repel the Duke’s coalition who had more than a 1000 soldier, I’m afraid that these fifty people can only return without having any achievement.
Of course, His Highness has to be informed about this development as soon as possible.
Thinking until here, he called the Knight from before, “Westeros, take three short-tailed horses with you, interchange them during the ride, so that you can reach Border Town as early as possible. When you’re there tell His Highness that Timothy’s men have come.”
“As you bid,” Westeros nodded.
As the Knight turned around and left, Petrov sighed. “Let’s go and meet the new King’s envoy.”
When Petrov appeared at the city gate, with the exception of the ten people riding at the front, whose spirits seemed to be trembling with excitement, the rest of the Cavaliers all seemed a little sluggish, they were sitting with a crooked body on their horses, as if they could fall off any time.
“Welcome, Sir Lehman,” Petrov welcomed him with a nod. “I’m the stronghold manager belonging to the Honeysuckle Family, Petrov Hull.”
The word ‘stronghold manager’ left a bad aftertaste in his mouth. If he had really been in charge of the Western Border, being the Duke of the stronghold, he would never have had to salute towards an envoy. He wouldn’t even need to greet him at the gate. Instead, he could just stay inside the Lord’s castle, waiting for the other party to come to him.
“I have heard of your name at the Cold Wind Range, ‘Acting Duke’.” Lehman dismounted and walked over with a smile. “The Western Border is indeed a strange territory, even after assembling a vast army, Duke Ryan actually couldn’t conquer such a small town. Moreover, he even lost his own life, which is a rare circumstance for the Kingdom of Graycastle. Of course, for the Honeysuckle Family, this must have been good news.”

Even if you don't know how to cook, Ye Fan can still cook for you.\" Aunt Jiang said in a gratified tone.\nWhen she heard this, Su Qingxue's beautiful face turned red, and she said with a bit of resentment: \"Auntie Jiang … … What are you saying! \"\nYe Fan blinked his eyes, \"What?\" Does Qingxue not know how to cook? You can always fry a poached egg, right? \"\n\"Miss doesn't seem to be too interested in anything other than doing business. Not to mention fried poached eggs and boiled eggs, even the water would be boiled dry and directly burned to the ground.\" Aunt Jiang seemed to recall some interesting past as she covered her mouth and laughed.\n\"Aunt Jiang!\" How could you do that! \" Su Qingxue wished she could hide under the table. This was too embarrassing!\nYe Fan looked at the woman with an amazed expression. He didn't expect that Su Qingxue's culinary skills would be so amazing!\n\"Not burning up the house, not bad,\" commented Ye Fan.\n\"Shut up! Wasn't it just cooking!? I'm just not interested in learning it! \" Su Qingxue felt that her face was completely shamed and she couldn't stay at home properly.\nAuntie Jiang hurriedly advised, \"Miss, don't be angry, people are always good at not good at it. This is very normal. \"Come, let's eat first.\"\nOnly then did Su Qingxue unwillingly sit down, but her eyes were still as cold as ice when she looked at Ye Fan.\nYe Fan didn't care about the woman's smelly face, and excitedly went to fill his bowl, intending to start eating.\nAt that moment, a phone call came in.\nYe Fan saw that it was actually from the Purple Leaf Tea House's Zhao Zhong. This brat never came to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason. In order to prevent Su Qingxue from hearing anything, he walked out of the house and carefully picked it up.\n\"Hey, Little Zhao, what happened?\" Ye Fan asked.\n\"If you have something to say, just say it.

Of course, I'll be responsible. Tell me the address and I'll go over immediately. I definitely won't let Sister Ning carry it alone.\" Ye Fan said seriously.\nIn next to no time, Zhao Zhong told him the address.\nYe Fan hung up the phone, returned to his house, and directly said, \"I need to go out for a while, you guys can eat.\"\nThen, without caring about Su Qingxue and Aunt Jiang's surprise, he turned around and ran out.\n\"Ye Fan!\" Weren't you hungry? Why... \" Aunt Jiang shouted twice, but Ye Fan had already left in his car.\nSu Qingxue said angrily: \"Auntie Jiang, leave him alone, go starve him to death!\"\nEven though she said that, the woman's eyes were filled with doubt and worry.\nOn the other side, Ye Fan was driving his car, and with a speed that was much faster than usual, he got onto the road.\nAlthough he had always wanted to avoid getting involved with the matters behind Ning Xuemo's back, he had no way to stay out of it when he thought that Ning Xuemo was in danger.\nAt the end of the day, a woman had already occupied a place in his heart, but Ye Fan was not willing to calmly face it all.\nRemembering the scene of Ning Zi driving him out of the car in a strange manner, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel some regret. He should have gone over earlier to apologize to the woman.\nSighing and shaking his head, Ye Fan rubbed his belly with a bitter smile. He hadn't even eaten yet and he had already come out again. He was really hungry.\n\"I wonder if there's any food over there.\" Ye Fan muttered to himself.\n… …. Because he was on the verge of bankruptcy, no one had cared about the factory for more than two months.\nTonight, however, there were dozens of cars parked outside the factory. Many of them were even minivans, business vehicles, and filled to the brim with people.\nIn the factory workshop that had the smell of engine oil, the atmosphere was heavy.\nOver a hundred people were divided into two camps. On one side stood Ning Zimo, Zhao Zhong, and the rest's subordinates, while on the other side stood the Purple Bamboo Forest's third hall master and his subordinates.\nAll of the helpers were carrying things on their bodies. Some had steel rods, some had knives at their waists, and there were even weapons like a pair of poles and a military knife.\nAs long as his bosses gave the order, a bloody battle would take place at the scene. Blood was flowing like a river, and it would be unavoidable.\nNing Xuemo wore a sleeveless black top and tight black jeans. Her hair was tied up with a ponytail. This simple and unadorned outfit perfectly revealed her graceful figure.\nA wide brown belt was especially eye-catching. No one knew how many throwing knives were hidden inside.\nNing Xuemo's calm and dignified gaze swept over the three hall masters who stated that they wanted to leave the gang, and she said, \"Old Wu, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Qing, you three are all elders of the council. Aunt Qing has already been twenty-one years since you joined the guild.\n\"Yet now, you have decided to lead the way by betraying the Purple Bamboo Forest. It is this junior who is acting as president. All of you are unconvinced. It is me who has treated you all unfairly.\"\n\"Ning Zimo, we won't betray the Purple Bamboo Forest. We were already here when you didn't come to seek refuge with the old Guild Master, which is your grandfather.\"\nOur feelings for the Purple Bamboo Forest far surpasses yours. The Purple Bamboo Forest should be named Zhu and not Ning! \" Old Wu Zhen, the hall master of Plum Blossom Hall, said.\n\"Grandfather gave the Purple Bamboo Forest to me because there is no one else with the surname Zhu that is worthy of his trust.\nI have never had the thought of usurping the Purple Bamboo Forest. Back then, I also refused to hand over my grandfather to me. Ning Xuemo coldly replied. At the same time, she had the nagging feeling that there was something wrong with these guys' words."

第0068章
“小姐，叶帆这么会做菜，我倒不担心你们以后的生活了，就算你什么都不会做，叶帆也能做给你吃”，江婶很欣慰地说。
此话一出，苏轻雪俏脸通红，几分嗔怨地道：“江婶……你说什么呢！”
叶帆则是眨眨眼，“啥？ 轻雪什么菜都不会做吗？
煎荷包蛋什么总行吧？” “小姐好像对做生意以外的事不太感兴趣，别说煎荷包蛋，白煮鸡蛋，都能把水烧干了，直接把锅子烧坏咯”，江婶似乎想起什么有趣的往事，掩嘴笑道。 “江婶！
！” 苏轻雪恨不得钻到桌子底下去，这也太糗了！
叶帆用一种叹为观止的眼神看着女人，没想到，苏轻雪“厨艺惊人”啊！
“没把房子烧起来，还算不错”，叶帆评价了句。
！” 苏轻雪觉得颜面扫地，都没法好好在家待着了。
江婶忙劝着，“小姐，别生气，人总有擅长不擅长的，这很正常嘛。 来，我们先吃饭吧”。
苏轻雪这才很不甘心地坐下，但看叶帆的目光，还是冷得跟冰一样。
叶帆也不管女人摆的臭脸，兴奋地去盛饭，打算开吃。
正当这时，一通电话却打了到他手机。
叶帆一看，竟然是紫叶茶舍赵忠打来的，这小子无事不登三宝殿，为了避免苏轻雪听到什么，特意走到屋子外，谨慎地接了起来。
“喂，小赵，怎么了？” 叶帆问。
“有事直说，宁姐怎么了？” 叶帆蹙眉。
赵忠叹了口气：“紫竹林里三个堂口叛乱了，估计有人挑唆的，大小姐已经决定亲自去平息这次叛变，不是分裂帮会，就是要镇压他们，但不管哪种，我觉得都太危险了。
那些人说是找咱大小姐去谈判，但选的地方是城北的一个工厂空车间，那种地方都是血拼的地方，谁会去坐下来谈判啊！
“这么危险，宁姐非要过去？” 叶帆问。
“哎，我也劝她，可她不听啊。 她觉得，只有用绝对的勇气和实力，震慑下面这帮人，才能以后真正凝聚紫竹林的所有人”。
“宁姐这判断，倒也对，如果这次胆怯了，不仅问题解决不了，还会被下面的人瞧不起……道上混的，就讲个面子”，叶帆道。 “是啊！
所以我才担心，那些人分明就是抓着小姐的软肋，有什么阴谋啊！” 赵忠道。
叶帆眯了眯眼，“是不是上次周家父子的事？ 让你们帮内一些人不满了？”
赵忠有些难启齿，“那件事……好像是有些人不满，但主要，还是很多老人一直不服气，大小姐当会长这件事吧，毕竟大小姐资历不深”。
“你不用替我说话，这件事的导火索，是我点燃的，当然我会负责任，告诉我地址，我立刻过去，绝对不会让宁姐一个人抗着”，叶帆正色道。
很快，赵忠就把地址说了出来。
叶帆挂掉电话，回到房子里，直接说：“我有事出门一趟，你们吃吧”。
说完，也不管苏轻雪和江婶的诧异，扭头就跑了出去。
你不是饿了吗，怎么……”江婶喊了两声，叶帆却已经开车走了。
苏轻雪则是气呼呼地说：“江婶，别管他，饿死他去！”
话虽这么说，但女人眼中，却有一抹疑惑和担忧。
另一边，叶帆则是开着车，以比平时快得多的速度，上了马路。
虽然他一直想避免跟宁紫陌背后的那些事牵扯上，但真当宁紫陌遭遇危险，他却无法做到置身事外。
说到底，女人早就已经在他心里占据了一席之地，只是叶帆自己不肯坦然面对这一切罢了。
想起那天宁紫陌生气赶他下车的画面，叶帆不禁有些后悔，自己应该早点过去向女人道个歉的。
叹着气，摇着头，叶帆苦笑着摸了摸自己的肚皮，这饭都没吃上，又跑出来了，可真饿呀。
“也不知道那边有没有饭吃”，叶帆喃喃自语。
华海城北的一座机械生产工厂，因为濒临破产，工厂已经有两个多月没人关顾。
但今晚，在工厂外却是停了几十辆车子，很多还是面包车、商务车，载满了人。
带着机油味道的工厂车间内，气氛凝重，草木皆兵。
上百人分成了两个阵营，一面站着的，自然是宁紫陌和赵忠等手下，另一面，则是紫竹林的三大堂主与各自部下。
一个个的帮中打手，都身上揣着家伙，有的是钢棍，也有腰间别着刀子的，甚至还有拿双截棍、军刺之类的武器。
只要自己的老大们一声令下，现场必然是一场血腥搏杀，血流成河也无法避免。
宁紫陌一身黑色无袖紧身上衣，下身同样是黑色紧身牛仔裤，一头青丝绑了个清爽利落的马尾，这种毫无装饰，纯粹勾勒线条的装束，让宁紫陌那婀娜的身段，完美地展现了出来。
一条宽大的褐色腰带尤为醒目，谁也不清楚，里面到底藏了多少飞刀。
宁紫陌从容而威严的目光扫过三个声称要脱离帮会的堂主，道：“吴老，章叔，青姨，你们三位都是会内的元老，入会最晚的青姨，也已经有二十一年了。
如今却带头要背叛紫竹林，是我这个晚辈做会长，你们不服气，还是我亏待了你们”。
“宁紫陌，我们可不会背叛紫竹林，在你没来投靠老会长，也就是你外公的时候，我们就都在了。
我们对紫竹林的感情远胜于你，紫竹林，应该姓祝，而不是姓宁！” 梅花堂的堂主，老头吴祯说道。
“外公把紫竹林交给我，就是因为姓祝的已经没有值得他信任的后人。
我从来没有篡夺紫竹林的念头，当年我也是一直拒绝外公交接给我，你们明明都很清楚！” 宁紫陌寒声回应，同时总觉得这几个家伙的话风，有些不对劲。

"Miss, since Ye Fan is so good at cooking, I'm not worried about your future. Even if you don't know how to cook, Ye Fan can still cook for you." Aunt Jiang said in a gratified tone.
When she heard this, Su Qingxue's beautiful face turned red, and she said with a bit of resentment: "Auntie Jiang … … What are you saying! "
Ye Fan blinked his eyes, "What?" Does Qingxue not know how to cook? You can always fry a poached egg, right? "
"Miss doesn't seem to be too interested in anything other than doing business. Not to mention fried poached eggs and boiled eggs, even the water would be boiled dry and directly burned to the ground." Aunt Jiang seemed to recall some interesting past as she covered her mouth and laughed.
"Aunt Jiang!" How could you do that! " Su Qingxue wished she could hide under the table. This was too embarrassing!
Ye Fan looked at the woman with an amazed expression. He didn't expect that Su Qingxue's culinary skills would be so amazing!
"Not burning up the house, not bad," commented Ye Fan.
"Shut up! Wasn't it just cooking!? I'm just not interested in learning it! " Su Qingxue felt that her face was completely shamed and she couldn't stay at home properly.
Auntie Jiang hurriedly advised, "Miss, don't be angry, people are always good at not good at it. This is very normal. "Come, let's eat first."
Only then did Su Qingxue unwillingly sit down, but her eyes were still as cold as ice when she looked at Ye Fan.
Ye Fan didn't care about the woman's smelly face, and excitedly went to fill his bowl, intending to start eating.
At that moment, a phone call came in.
Ye Fan saw that it was actually from the Purple Leaf Tea House's Zhao Zhong. This brat never came to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason. In order to prevent Su Qingxue from hearing anything, he walked out of the house and carefully picked it up.
"Hey, Little Zhao, what happened?" Ye Fan asked.
"If you have something to say, just say it. What's wrong with Sister Ning?" Ye Fan frowned.
Zhao Zhong sighed, "Three of the halls in the Purple Bamboo Forest are rebelling. I think someone is instigating them, and Eldest Miss has decided to quell this rebellion herself. It's either splitting the gangs or suppressing them, but no matter which one, I think it's too dangerous.
Those people said that they were looking for Young Miss to negotiate, but they chose an empty factory to the north of the city. That kind of place is a bloody business, who would sit down and negotiate!? "
"It's so dangerous, must Sister Ning go over?" Ye Fan asked.
"Sigh, I also tried to persuade her, but she wouldn't listen. She felt that only by using absolute courage and strength to intimidate the people below would they be able to truly form the Purple Bamboo Forest in the future. "
"Sister Ning's judgement is right. If we become timid this time, not only will we not be able to solve the problem, we'll even be looked down upon by the people below …" "If you're a gangster, then give me some face." Ye Fan said.
"That's right!" That's why I'm worried, those people are obviously trying to grab onto xiaojie's weakness, what kind of conspiracy are they plotting! " Zhao Zhong said.
Ye Fan narrowed his eyes, "Is it about the matter of the Zhou family's father and son last time?" make some of your gang members unhappy? "
Zhao Zhong found it hard to say, "About that …" It seems that some people are discontented, but the main issue is that many old people have been unconvinced for a long time.
"You don't need to speak up for me, I'm the one who lit the fuse for this. Of course, I'll be responsible. Tell me the address and I'll go over immediately. I definitely won't let Sister Ning carry it alone." Ye Fan said seriously.
In next to no time, Zhao Zhong told him the address.
Ye Fan hung up the phone, returned to his house, and directly said, "I need to go out for a while, you guys can eat."
Then, without caring about Su Qingxue and Aunt Jiang's surprise, he turned around and ran out.
"Ye Fan!" Weren't you hungry? Why... " Aunt Jiang shouted twice, but Ye Fan had already left in his car.
Su Qingxue said angrily: "Auntie Jiang, leave him alone, go starve him to death!"
Even though she said that, the woman's eyes were filled with doubt and worry.
On the other side, Ye Fan was driving his car, and with a speed that was much faster than usual, he got onto the road.
Although he had always wanted to avoid getting involved with the matters behind Ning Xuemo's back, he had no way to stay out of it when he thought that Ning Xuemo was in danger.
At the end of the day, a woman had already occupied a place in his heart, but Ye Fan was not willing to calmly face it all.
Remembering the scene of Ning Zi driving him out of the car in a strange manner, Ye Fan couldn't help but feel some regret. He should have gone over earlier to apologize to the woman.
Sighing and shaking his head, Ye Fan rubbed his belly with a bitter smile. He hadn't even eaten yet and he had already come out again. He was really hungry.
"I wonder if there's any food over there." Ye Fan muttered to himself.
… …. Because he was on the verge of bankruptcy, no one had cared about the factory for more than two months.

In the factory workshop that had the smell of engine oil, the atmosphere was heavy.

As long as his bosses gave the order, a bloody battle would take place at the scene. Blood was flowing like a river, and it would be unavoidable.
Ning Xuemo wore a sleeveless black top and tight black jeans. Her hair was tied up with a ponytail. This simple and unadorned outfit perfectly revealed her graceful figure.
A wide brown belt was especially eye-catching. No one knew how many throwing knives were hidden inside.
Ning Xuemo's calm and dignified gaze swept over the three hall masters who stated that they wanted to leave the gang, and she said, "Old Wu, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Qing, you three are all elders of the council. Aunt Qing has already been twenty-one years since you joined the guild.

"Ning Zimo, we won't betray the Purple Bamboo Forest. We were already here when you didn't come to seek refuge with the old Guild Master, which is your grandfather."
Our feelings for the Purple Bamboo Forest far surpasses yours. The Purple Bamboo Forest should be named Zhu and not Ning! " Old Wu Zhen, the hall master of Plum Blossom Hall, said.
"Grandfather gave the Purple Bamboo Forest to me because there is no one else with the surname Zhu that is worthy of his trust.
I have never had the thought of usurping the Purple Bamboo Forest. Back then, I also refused to hand over my grandfather to me. Ning Xuemo coldly replied. At the same time, she had the nagging feeling that there was something wrong with these guys' words.

"value": "Chapter 688: Triple-Spirit Evolver!\nYue Zhong saw that Yin Shuang had returned to him and his mood became better. He asked, \"I’m Yue Zhong, what’s your name? The beasts that you were referring to, who were they? What happened here?\"\nThe cool beauty assessed Yue Zhong for a while, before saying, \"I’m called Liu Yue Mei. Are you from outside?\"\nHe replied, \"That’s right.\"\nShe continued to ask, \"Are there still many zombies outside?\"\nYue Zhong replied, \"Many. In fact, many places are still overrun with zombies.\"\nAlthough Yue Zhong had gained control of the whole Central Plains, in truth, there were still many towns and villages containing zombies. He had only controlled the important industrial cities and counties.\nEven Zhang Kou City had nearby villages that were not entirely cleaned up yet. It was because it would take a lot of time, and it might divert his attention away from the important task of advancing into the capital.\nThe zombies in those smaller villages were left to hunters to deal with. After all, since the corpses of zombies were vital nutrients to the Mutant Plants, Yue Zhong had set up a market to purchase zombie corpses.\nFrom there, plenty of hunting teams popped up to earn money. It was a dangerous task, but the rewards were attractive and those who did not wish to confine themselves into working at factories managed to find work as hunters. It fulfilled Yue Zhong’s objectives as well.\nIn such a process, a new culture emerged. In the past, bounty hunters were a rare breed of occupation, and now, it had become the highly sought-after job for those who loved risks and high returns.\nYue Zhong stared straight at the lady and said solemnly, \"I have already conquered most of the Central Plains. Zhang Kou City is already under my control. I have established a form of government there, and I’m highly interested in your ability. Do consider joining us.\"\nHer brows arched, as she challenged, \"What if I decide not to, what will you do?\"\nYue Zhong replied slowly, \"Then I will have to apologize, your ability is too dangerous. If you don’t, I’ll have to eliminate you right here.\"\nLiu Yue Mei could control zombies, this was one of the sickest abilities Yue Zhong had come across. Although she was weak, the zombie troops she controlled could easily wipe out a peak level Evolver. With such a dangerous entity, if Yue Zhong had no means of controlling her, he would not leave her to his enemies.\nIn the system, there were many abilities that could be bought. However, the miraculous ability to control the zombies could not be bought from the system.\nThe easiest to obtain was the Firearms Manipulation Specialization skill once one turned into a soldier, while the other was the Medical Specialization for those who became medics.\nYue Zhong looked at her and said, \"I would like to know what your skill is called as well as its limitation. From there I can assign you tasks. You will be paid and treated according to your contributions. At the same time, you won’t have to worry about me lusting over your body. In fact, I have a number of women by my side, each and every one of them is even more beautiful than you.\"\nShe snorted before replying, \"My skill is the Third Order Zombie Control. I’m a Triple-Spirit Evolver. I’m currently level 60, and the maximum number of zombies I can control is 500. This refers to ordinary zombies. As for evolved ones, the numbers will be lesser.\"\nYue Zhong’s brows arched as he asked, \"Triple-Spirit Evolver?\"\nIt was the first time that he heard such a term.\nShe replied somewhat haughtily, \"The term Triple-Spirit Evolver means that each time I level up, other than the points to be allocated, there will be a fixed increase of 3 points in Spirit per level.\"\nWhen Yue Zhong heard that, he couldn’t help but tremble in shock.\nSuch an existence was truly terrifying. It meant that Liu Yue Mei’s innate talent was insanely high. Each time she gained a level, her Spirit was definitely stronger than any other person. Her only weakness was her weak survivability. However, if she had enough protection, she could unleash a terrifying combat strength.\nFurthermore, with such a high level of Spirit, other than controlling zombies, she could use the system to learn other offensive and defensive spells. At that time, she would truly be a force to be reckoned with.\nYue Zhong chuckled and said, \"Very good. I can assign you the rank of a Major, with the perks and treatment of one. Of course, you will have to use your abilities to wipe out zombies to earn that rank and promote.\"\nHer gaze flitted about before she replied, \"It’s fine to join you, but I have a condition!\"\nYue Zhong said, \"Name it!\"\nLiu Yue Mei turned around and went down the stairs, \"Come with me!\"\nYue Zhong carried Yin Shuang and followed her out.\nAs they went past a few alleys, they came to a huge warehouse.\nIn front of the huge warehouse, there were 2 L3s. She eyed them and sent out a spiritual wave, and the 2 L3s pulled the door open.\n\"Sis, you’re back!\"\n\"Sis Liu!!\"\n\".....\"\nThe moment she entered the warehouse, a dozen little kids came running over.\nA few of these youths, looking about 13 or 14 looked at Yue Zhong and Yin Shuang warily, and asked, \"Sis Liu, who are these people?\"\nThe rest of the kids also took a few steps back, hiding behind Liu Yue Mei.\nLiu Yue Mei looked at them with a sense of warmth, \"Little Zhen, don’t be afraid. They’re my friends.\"\nYue Zhong looked at them, not saying anything, as he turned to look at Liu Yue Mei.\nShe returned his gaze and said, \"Come with me!\"\nLiu Yue Mei brought Yue Zhong further into the warehouse, and they came across a number of women lying by the wall. Most of them had their legs broken, some even had their arms chopped off. Some of them had faces full of burn scars, while others had bulging tummies as though they were pregnant, but their limbs were frail and weak.\n\"This is the result of those bastards’ actions.\" Liu Mei Yue eyed those women, her gaze full of vengeance as she revealed what happened to this city.\nAfter the world changed, the entire underground city was also filled with zombies.\nHowever, since this was a satellite base, the defense wasn’t too weak. There was a special forces team as well as firepower to ensure the safety of the place.\nAs the apocalypse continued, the soldiers were all deployed to kill the zombies and rescue the citizens.\nThe survivors that were rescued retreated to the city center, waiting for rescue. Because the special forces started to transform into zombies as well, and the remaining soldiers had no way of clearing the rest of the zombies.\nThere were enough rations in this city, at the start, the situation was stable.

第七百零八章 精神三重进化者！
岳重看着银霜回到他的怀中心情大好向着那个女人问道：“我叫岳重，请问你叫什么名字？ 你口中的禽兽又是什么人？
这里发生了什么？” 那名冷漠美女仔细的打量了岳重一会道：“我叫柳月眉。 你是从外面来的吗？”
岳重道：“我是从外面来的。”
柳月眉继续问道：“外面丧尸还是那么多吗？”
目前在外面，丧尸依然占据着大量的地方。”
虽然岳重掌控了整个大草原，事实上依然有许多乡镇村落里面有着许多丧尸，他只是掌握了大草原之上那些大型的工业城市和重要的县城。
就连张口市许多乡镇里面的丧尸岳重都没有完全剿灭。 因为若是要剿灭那些乡镇里面的丧尸不但要消耗大量的时间，而且会耽误他进军首都的目标。
那些乡镇里面的丧尸岳重则是交给了一个个猎人团体来处理。 丧尸的尸体对于变异植物来说是最好的养分，因此岳重大量的收购丧尸的尸体。
一个个狩猎丧尸赚取赏金的猎人团体旋即出现。 狩猎丧尸虽然危险，可是报酬丰厚，许多不想在工厂里面工作的人就选择了当赏金猎人狩猎丧尸。
在这样的过程之中，新的社会体系开始出现。 赏金猎人这个在末世之前不常见的职业现在变成了最受冒险家和那些身手不凡却不甘心沉沦的高手喜欢的职业。
岳重直视着那名冷漠美女沉声道：“不过大草原已经被我带兵收复。 张口市也已经被我收复。
柳月眉眉头一挑道：“如果我不加入你们，你打算怎么办？”
岳重缓缓道：“那么十分抱歉，你的能力太过危险。 如果你不加入我们，那么我只能够在这里消灭你。”
柳月眉能够操纵丧尸，这种技能是岳重见过最为变态的技能之一。 虽然柳月眉本身弱得不可思议，可是她操纵的丧尸部队足以消灭一名顶尖进化者。 这样危险的存在，要是岳重无法掌握，他也绝对不会留给敌人。
有许多普通的技能书能够购买到。 可是操纵丧尸这种稀有技能却是无法通过神魔系统购买。
通过神魔系统最容易获得的就是转职成为士兵之后能够轻易掌握的枪械操纵专精，转职成为医生之后能够轻易掌握的医学基础专精等等基础技能。
事实上我有不少女人，她们每一个都比你要漂亮。” 柳月眉有些不服气的哼了一声这才说道：“我掌握的技能是三阶丧尸操纵。 我是一名精神三重进化者。
目前强化等级只有十六级。 我目前能够操纵丧尸的极限是五百头，这个数目是指操纵普通丧尸。 如果操纵进化丧尸。
岳重眉头一挑发出了一声疑问：“精神三重进化者？”
岳重还是第一次听到这个名词。
柳月眉有些自豪的说道：“所谓的精神三重进化者就是我升级一次，除了自由分配点数之外，还会固定多获得三点精神力的强化。”
岳重闻言心中巨震。
这精神三重进化者极为恐怖，柳月眉的潜力也强得可怕。 若是升级到高级，柳月眉的精神力绝对比其他进化者要强得多。 她唯一的弱点就是生存能力弱。
不过只要有护卫，她绝对能够发挥出恐怖的战力。 而且柳月眉拥有那么强横的精神力除了操纵丧尸之外，她还能够通过神魔系统学习到其他精神系的攻击、防御技能。 到了那个时候。
我可以给你少校军衔，并且给予你少校的待遇。 当然要想获得少校的待遇，你也必须拿出自己的力量去消灭丧尸。”
柳月眉目光闪动了几下道：“加入你们也可以，不过我有一个条件！”
岳重道：“你说！”
柳月眉转头向着楼下走去：“跟我来！”
岳重抱着银霜也跟着柳月眉向外面走去。
一路穿过了一条条通道小巷，柳月眉来到了一个大仓库之前。
在那大仓库之前有着两头l3，柳月眉瞧了那两头l3一眼精神波纹一闪，那两头l3就将那仓库的大门拉开。
“姐姐你回来了！”
“柳姐姐！
！”
柳月眉一回到那大仓库里面十几名萝莉正太就围了过来。
一名年约十三四岁的少年看着岳重和银霜一下充满警惕的问道：“柳姐姐，他们是什么人？”
其余的萝莉、正太也都心中一惊忍不住向后退了几步退到了柳月眉的身后。
柳月眉看着那围过来的萝莉正太眼中闪过一抹温柔：“小正。 不用怕。
岳重看了那些萝莉、正太一眼并没有多说什么而是向着柳月眉看去。
柳月眉会意向着岳重说道：“跟我来！”
那些女人有的双腿被打断，有的被人齐根切掉了双臂。 有的脸上充满了烧伤的疤痕，有的肚子股股的仿佛怀孕了一般，可是她们的四肢却极为纤细。 “这些就是那些畜生造的孽。”
柳月眉指着那些女子眼中闪过一抹仇恨将这地下城之中发生的一切向着岳重合盘托出。
世界变异之后，这地下城也同样到处都是丧尸。
不过这里是卫星基地，防御力量不弱，有一只特种部队和精锐的安保力量，有不少枪支。
世界变异之后，基地里面的部队立即发动，消灭了不少丧尸救出了不少地下城的居民。
那些被救出的居民都退入了基地的核心区域等待救援。 那是因为那只特种部队大部分战士也都变成了丧尸，残存的战士无法将所有的丧尸消灭。
一开始局势还十分稳定。 随着时间的推移，突然有一天一名叫魏闲的进化者突然发难将基地里面的高层和所有特种兵杀了干净抢夺了那基地的指挥权。
其余的幸存者却如同奴隶一样被他们鱼肉支配。 在那仓库里面的就是被魏闲和他爪牙玩坏了的女人。 柳月眉是趁着魏闲在基地夺权之时逃出基地核心区的幸存者之一。
她在逃亡之时觉醒成为了进化者获得了操纵丧尸的强力技能，她利用那个强力的技能将追兵统统杀死，同时将魏闲他们逼得无法离开基地的核心区。
岳重好奇的问道：“为什么不去杀死魏闲他们那些混蛋？ 以你手中掌握着的进化丧尸，应该能够轻易的将他们全部杀死。”
就算是岳重也必须发动技能魔炎耗费一定的精神力才能够将之秒杀。
至于那吞噬者成熟体更是连岳重都差点死在它手中的恐怖怪物，这样的怪物一爪子就能够将普通进化者杀死。
如果我让丧尸进去杀了他，基地里面的孩子就会被他杀光！ 那个畜生真的能够干出那样的事情来。”
岳重有些异样的瞧了柳月眉一眼，他倒是没有想道这个女人竟然还有着一颗善良的心。 这在末世之中极为难得。
柳月眉看着岳重斩钉截铁道：“我加入你们的条件就是，你要派人好好照顾这些女人。 并且帮我杀掉魏闲，从魏闲的手中救出那些孩子们。”
这是作为一个首领，作为一个人应该做的事情。 我也不想占你的便宜，你要不要再提一个条件，为你个人提一个条件？”
柳月眉有些意外的看了岳重一眼沉吟了一下缓缓摇头道：“不用。 只要你满足了我的那个条件就可以了。”
岳重道：“带我去魏闲那里！”
“嗯！”
在柳月眉的带领之下，岳重来到了那地下城的中央，一个占地数百亩周围围着高高围墙，里面建设着数十栋高大建筑的基地核心区之外。

Chapter 688: Triple-Spirit Evolver!
Yue Zhong saw that Yin Shuang had returned to him and his mood became better. He asked, "I’m Yue Zhong, what’s your name? The beasts that you were referring to, who were they? What happened here?"
The cool beauty assessed Yue Zhong for a while, before saying, "I’m called Liu Yue Mei. Are you from outside?"
He replied, "That’s right."
She continued to ask, "Are there still many zombies outside?"
Yue Zhong replied, "Many. In fact, many places are still overrun with zombies."
Although Yue Zhong had gained control of the whole Central Plains, in truth, there were still many towns and villages containing zombies. He had only controlled the important industrial cities and counties.
Even Zhang Kou City had nearby villages that were not entirely cleaned up yet. It was because it would take a lot of time, and it might divert his attention away from the important task of advancing into the capital.
The zombies in those smaller villages were left to hunters to deal with. After all, since the corpses of zombies were vital nutrients to the Mutant Plants, Yue Zhong had set up a market to purchase zombie corpses.
From there, plenty of hunting teams popped up to earn money. It was a dangerous task, but the rewards were attractive and those who did not wish to confine themselves into working at factories managed to find work as hunters. It fulfilled Yue Zhong’s objectives as well.
In such a process, a new culture emerged. In the past, bounty hunters were a rare breed of occupation, and now, it had become the highly sought-after job for those who loved risks and high returns.
Yue Zhong stared straight at the lady and said solemnly, "I have already conquered most of the Central Plains. Zhang Kou City is already under my control. I have established a form of government there, and I’m highly interested in your ability. Do consider joining us."
Her brows arched, as she challenged, "What if I decide not to, what will you do?"
Yue Zhong replied slowly, "Then I will have to apologize, your ability is too dangerous. If you don’t, I’ll have to eliminate you right here."
Liu Yue Mei could control zombies, this was one of the sickest abilities Yue Zhong had come across. Although she was weak, the zombie troops she controlled could easily wipe out a peak level Evolver. With such a dangerous entity, if Yue Zhong had no means of controlling her, he would not leave her to his enemies.
In the system, there were many abilities that could be bought. However, the miraculous ability to control the zombies could not be bought from the system.
The easiest to obtain was the Firearms Manipulation Specialization skill once one turned into a soldier, while the other was the Medical Specialization for those who became medics.
Yue Zhong looked at her and said, "I would like to know what your skill is called as well as its limitation. From there I can assign you tasks. You will be paid and treated according to your contributions. At the same time, you won’t have to worry about me lusting over your body. In fact, I have a number of women by my side, each and every one of them is even more beautiful than you."
She snorted before replying, "My skill is the Third Order Zombie Control. I’m a Triple-Spirit Evolver. I’m currently level 60, and the maximum number of zombies I can control is 500. This refers to ordinary zombies. As for evolved ones, the numbers will be lesser."
Yue Zhong’s brows arched as he asked, "Triple-Spirit Evolver?"
It was the first time that he heard such a term.
She replied somewhat haughtily, "The term Triple-Spirit Evolver means that each time I level up, other than the points to be allocated, there will be a fixed increase of 3 points in Spirit per level."
When Yue Zhong heard that, he couldn’t help but tremble in shock.
Such an existence was truly terrifying. It meant that Liu Yue Mei’s innate talent was insanely high. Each time she gained a level, her Spirit was definitely stronger than any other person. Her only weakness was her weak survivability. However, if she had enough protection, she could unleash a terrifying combat strength.
Furthermore, with such a high level of Spirit, other than controlling zombies, she could use the system to learn other offensive and defensive spells. At that time, she would truly be a force to be reckoned with.
Yue Zhong chuckled and said, "Very good. I can assign you the rank of a Major, with the perks and treatment of one. Of course, you will have to use your abilities to wipe out zombies to earn that rank and promote."
Her gaze flitted about before she replied, "It’s fine to join you, but I have a condition!"
Yue Zhong said, "Name it!"
Liu Yue Mei turned around and went down the stairs, "Come with me!"
Yue Zhong carried Yin Shuang and followed her out.
As they went past a few alleys, they came to a huge warehouse.
In front of the huge warehouse, there were 2 L3s. She eyed them and sent out a spiritual wave, and the 2 L3s pulled the door open.
"Sis, you’re back!"
"Sis Liu!!"
"....."
The moment she entered the warehouse, a dozen little kids came running over.
A few of these youths, looking about 13 or 14 looked at Yue Zhong and Yin Shuang warily, and asked, "Sis Liu, who are these people?"
The rest of the kids also took a few steps back, hiding behind Liu Yue Mei.
Liu Yue Mei looked at them with a sense of warmth, "Little Zhen, don’t be afraid. They’re my friends."
Yue Zhong looked at them, not saying anything, as he turned to look at Liu Yue Mei.
She returned his gaze and said, "Come with me!"
Liu Yue Mei brought Yue Zhong further into the warehouse, and they came across a number of women lying by the wall. Most of them had their legs broken, some even had their arms chopped off. Some of them had faces full of burn scars, while others had bulging tummies as though they were pregnant, but their limbs were frail and weak.
"This is the result of those bastards’ actions." Liu Mei Yue eyed those women, her gaze full of vengeance as she revealed what happened to this city.
After the world changed, the entire underground city was also filled with zombies.
However, since this was a satellite base, the defense wasn’t too weak. There was a special forces team as well as firepower to ensure the safety of the place.
As the apocalypse continued, the soldiers were all deployed to kill the zombies and rescue the citizens.
The survivors that were rescued retreated to the city center, waiting for rescue. Because the special forces started to transform into zombies as well, and the remaining soldiers had no way of clearing the rest of the zombies.
There were enough rations in this city, at the start, the situation was stable. With the passing of time, an Evolver by the name of Wei Xian suddenly appeared, launching an assault on the upper echelons of the society as well as the special forces, killing them all and snatching authority.
Wei Xian had swiftly organized a team to be his teeth and claws, as they holed themselves up in the center of the city, eating their fill while toying with the women. The rest of the survivors were treated like shit. Those in the warehouse were the women who had been broken by Wei Xian and his gang of cronies.
Liu Yue Mei had taken the opportunity to escape during Wei Xian’s fight for power. During her escape, she had awakened as an Evolver and gained her skill, making use of it to kill her pursuers, at the same time, forcing Wei Xian and the rest to be stuck, with no means of escaping the center of the city.
Yue Zhong asked curiously, "Why not kill those bunch of bastards? Since you have so many evolved zombies, you should be able to kill them easily."
The L3s were impervious to normal weapons, not many Evolvers were a match for them. Even for Yue Zhong, he had to utilize the Devil Flame to incinerate them.
As for the Devourers, even Yue Zhong almost perished at their hands, and the claws of such a freak could kill any ordinary Evolver.
She gritted her teeth as her fury erupted, "Those bastards are holding the children hostage in order to threaten me! The moment I get the zombies to get too near to them, they will execute all the children within. If I were to let the zombies charge in and kill him, the children in there will all die! That bastard even resorted to something like this!"
Yue Zhong glanced at her strangely, he had not expected this woman to be so kind-hearted. It was truly rare in this world.
Liu Yue Mei looked towards Yue Zhong with a resolute gaze, "The condition for me joining you is this, you have to send people to take care of these women, and help me to take out Wei Xian, rescuing the kids from his hands."
Yue Zhong replied, "Fine! Even if you didn’t raise it, I will send men to take care of these women and kill that bastard Wei Xian. This is what a leader, a person should do. I don’t want to take advantage of you. Do you want to raise one more condition for yourself?"
She looked at Yue Zhong somewhat taken aback, and sighed before she shook her head, "No need. As long as you satisfy those conditions, it’s more than enough for me."
Yue Zhong replied, "Take me to Wei Xian!"
"En!"
Under her lead, Yue Zhong came to the center of the city, where a number of walls stood high and tall, surrounding a few towering buildings.

"value": "Chapter 42\nThere was also someone else who was drunk that night-Chen Yunlun. Whether intentionally or not, no one had told him this piece of news. Some perhaps gloated over his misfortune. Some, perhaps worried that he might not be able to take the news, therefore kept it from it.\nAnyway, Chen Yulun got drunk, and had a very blissful dream. He even thought in the dream how good it would be if these were the olden times. Languishing in pride, robe adorned with red flowers, traversing the streets on a horse.\nThe next morning, Chen Yulun awoke. The dream shattered.\nMany people had slept at Xu Tingsheng's house the previous night. With there being insufficient rooms, a few boys had spread a mattress across the ground, smoking as they chatted, grabbing a few bottles of wine in the middle of the night and going back to the room to drink.\nFang Yunyao stayed together with Xu Tingsheng's sister, Xu Qiuyi. They were still yet to know that in Xu Qiuyi's upcoming first year of senior high, Fang Yunyao would be one of her teachers.\nIt's too beautiful, I don't want to think about it…\nTan Qinglin and Song Ni stayed together. Huang Yaming had asked Song Ni to help persuade Tan Qinglin to give up on repeating the year and go directly to university instead.\nHuang Yaming woke up at 2am to go to the toilet, tottering as he went. Still sober, Xu Tingsheng pulled him back, \"It can't be, right? This is my house, and that aside, other than Tan Qinglin, there's also Song Ni sleeping there. Are you sure that you want to do such a deed that will anger both humans and divinities alike?\"\nHuang Yaming felt very wronged, saying that he just wanted to go to the toilet.\nXu Tingsheng didn't believe him, pulling him back and refusing to let him go.\nHuang Yaming held his stomach, saying that he really couldn't hold it in anymore.\nNot being to hold it in was actually a phrase that could be very easily misunderstood as Xu Tingsheng said, \"Will it kill you to hold it in for a day? What if Tan Qinglin cries out? …Everyone collectively listens in on the room together?\"\nHot tears filled Huang Yaming's eyes, \"…I'm talking about urine, I almost can't hold it in.\"\nActually having being awake all this time, Fu Cheng told Xu Tingsheng, \"It just happens that I want to go too. I'll help you look after him.\"\n\"I'll go too then,\" Xu Tingsheng said.\nThe three didn't go to the toilet, instead going to the small hill behind Xu Tingsheng's house and playing a very silly game under the moonlight. Who could pee further, it was at most ten feet that year…it was precisely that year now.\nAfterwards, the trio sat on the slope of the hill and chatted.\nXu Tingsheng asked Huang Yaming, \"What do you and Tan Qingling intend to do?\"\nHuang Yaming said, \"I’m just encouraging her to go for university now. It’s best if we enter the same one, but if it really isn’t possible, we’ll study in the same city, then get married after graduation.\"\nIn Xu Tingsheng’s previous life, Tan Qingling hadn’t even blinked as she had dumped Huang Yaming, in the midst of repeating the year, without a second thought. This time round, many things had changed, such as that with Huang Yaming. Still, Tan Qingling’s personality wouldn’t change. As Xu Tingsheng had thought earlier, there was one thing the power of foresight that came together with rebirth couldn’t control-matters of the heart.\nXu Tingsheng said, \"If one day, and I’m saying if, if one day, you don’t really possess any capabilities, just being a completely average guy, and Tan Qingling falls in love with someone who is richer and more capable than you, what would you do?\"\nHuang Yaming said, \"She won’t.\"\nXu Tingsheng could only discard this topic as he turned towards Fu Cheng, asking him, \"What about you?…Already having said things to that extent just now, after Ms Fang wakes up tomorrow, what are you planning to do?\"\nHuang Yaming said, \"Just directly push her down.\"\nFu Cheng said, \"I’ve been thinking about it ever since then… but haven’t been able to think of anything. Still, I find that things are pretty good this way. I’ve said whatever I wanted to say, and she’s heard it all as well. I’ve given her a promise, and also given her freedom. What comes after will be the work of time and destiny.\"\nFu Cheng meant that he would wait, while Ms Fang could let nature run its course. However, this format was in itself already flawed. Ms Fang's age made it such that she could not let nature just run its course. Fu Cheng had lots of time; she did not.\nWhat if they began just like that? This was similarly not fair to Ms Fang. The pressure and fear she would have to bear would be completely incomparable to that bore by Fu Cheng.\nThis was a dead knot.\nFinally, the topic fell to Xu Tingsheng, Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng being extremely curious about his 'love at first sight'.\nXu Tingsheng said, \"She's called Xiang Ning.\"\n\"Can we meet her?\"\n\"After some time's passed…no, in a few years.\"……\nAfter the release of the university entrance examination results, schools would usually conduct a seminar regarding the filling up of the graduates' aspiration forms, guiding them on such.\nAfter Xu Tingsheng's group had finished eating breakfast, they swaggered mightily to the school gates.\nThe large red banners were hung directly down from the tenth grade building closest to the school gates. On one of them was written: Warmly congratulating Student Xu Tingsheng's glorious achievements. Top scholar for Humanities in Libei County, ranked overall third for Humanities in Jiannan City, first in Jianhai Province for Combined Humanities and also awarded the Award of Bravery in Libei County.\n\"What's that Award of Bravery all about?\" Xu Tingsheng was completely stumped.\nPossessing superb alcohol tolerance, Vice Principal Lou seemed not to have been drunk the previous night at all as he came over in great strides, laughing heartily, \"We got a commendation for you for that matter with SARS. How about it?\"\n\"…Thank you, Vice Principal,\" Xu Tingsheng had originally thought that that had already been the end of things, that that…violent action of his was not worth giving mention to at all.\nThey all raised their heads and gazed at the banner.\nIt was not just them. Including the tenth and eleventh grade students and the graduates and their parents who had come back to attend the seminar, a few thousand people gazed upon the large red banner that drifted with the wind, discussing it animatedly.\n'Splendor shines on the family's door'. Suddenly thinking of this idiom, Xu Tingsheng felt pretty good.\nAt this moment, under everyone's gazes, that banner regarding Xu Tingsheng suddenly grew taut, then drifted down from the rooftop with a ripping sound.\nThe wind was not big, and the other banners were all fine.

第四十二章
在这个晚上喝醉的还有另一个人，陈玉伦，不管有意还是无意，并没有人告诉他这个消息，也许有人幸灾乐祸，也许有人因为担心他无法承受而不忍告之。
总之，陈玉伦醉了，做了一个很美的梦，他甚至在梦里想，这要是在古代多好，春风得意，红花锦袍，跨马游街。
清晨，陈玉伦醒来，梦碎。
许庭生家里昨晚住了不少人，房间不够，几个男生只好一起打地铺，抽着烟聊着天，半夜又去拎了几瓶酒到房间继续喝。
方云瑶和许庭生妹妹住一起，她们还不知道，接下来许秋奕读高一，方云瑶会是她的老师之一。
这画面太美我不敢看。
谭青灵和宋妮住一起，黄亚明让宋妮帮忙劝谭青灵放弃高复，去读大学。
黄亚明凌晨两点爬起来上厕所，蹑手蹑脚的往外走，依然清醒的许庭生一把拉住他：“你不会吧，这是我家，再说谭青灵那边还睡着宋妮呢，你确定要干出这种人神共愤的事情？”
黄亚明很委屈，他说我就是想上个厕所。
许庭生不信，拉着他不放。
黄亚明捂着肚子说我真憋不住了。
憋不住这个词其实很容易出现歧义，许庭生说：“这种事憋一天会死？ 万一谭青灵叫出来怎么办？
黄亚明眼泛热泪：“……，我说的是尿，憋不住了。”
其实一直醒着的付诚对许庭生说：“正好我也要去，我帮你看着他。”
“那我也去吧。” 许庭生说。
三个人没去厕所，到了许庭生家屋后的小山岗，在月光下做了一个很无聊的小游戏，比谁尿得远，当年顶风尿十丈，……此时正是当年。
然后三个人坐在山坡上聊天。
许庭生问黄亚明：“你和谭青灵打算怎么办？”
黄亚明说：“劝她去读大学呗，在一个学校最好，实在不行的话，就同一个城市，然后毕业结婚。”
前世谭青灵甩掉正在高复的黄亚明时连眼睛都没眨一下，这一世也许很多东西都改变了，比如黄亚明的改变，但是谭青灵的个性不会变，正如许庭生先前所想，重生的先知先觉也无法控制一件事：感情。
许庭生说：“假如有一天，我是说假如，有一天你没什么本事，就那么普普通通的，然后谭青灵喜欢上了更有钱更有能力的人，你怎么看？”
黄亚明说：“她不会的。”
许庭生只好中断这个话题，转向付诚道：“你呢？ ……刚刚话已经说到那份上了，明早方老师醒了，你打算怎么办？”
黄亚明说：“直接扑倒吧。”
付诚说：“我刚刚一直在想，……没想出来。 不过我现在觉得，这样子就挺好的，我能说的都说了，她也都听到了，我给她承诺，也给她自由，以后的事，就看时间和命运吧。”
付诚的意思，他会等，方老师可以顺其自然，但是这个公式本身就是不成立的，方老师的年龄决定了她不能顺其自然，付诚有大把时间，她没有。
那么就此开始呢？ 对方老师来说，这同样不公平，她所需要承担的压力和恐惧都是付诚无法比拟的。
这是一个死结。
最后话题到了许庭生身上，黄亚明和付诚对他的“一见钟情”充满好奇。
许庭生只说了一件事：“她叫项凝。”
“见一下？”
“过段时间，哦不，过几年。”
高考成绩出来之后，学校一般会组织一场志愿填报相关的讲座，指导学生填报志愿。
许庭生这边一群人吃过早饭，浩浩荡荡的来到校门口。
大红的横幅从最靠近校门的高一楼楼顶直挂下来，其中一幅上面是：热烈祝贺许庭生同学荣膺丽北县文科状元，渐南市文科总排名第三，文综成绩渐海省第一，并获丽北县见义勇为奖。
“见义勇为奖是怎么回事？” 许庭生一头雾水。
对酒精抗性绝佳的楼副校长丝毫没有宿醉的样子，大步走来，爽朗的笑道：“非典那事，我们给你弄了个表彰，怎么样？”
“……，谢谢校长。” 许庭生原来一直以为这事已经过去了呢，自己那个，……暴力行为，不值得提倡。
一群人都抬头看着横幅。
不光他们，高一高二的学生，还有回来听报告会的高三毕业生和家长，几千人看着迎风飘扬的大红横幅，议论纷纷。 “光耀门楣。”
许庭生突然想到这个词，这感觉挺好的。
然后，就在所有人的目光中，那幅属于许庭生的横幅突然一紧，“哧啦”，横幅从楼顶飘落。
风不大，另外几幅横幅也没事，所以，它是被人扯下来的。
一个身影站在楼下，手里扯着横幅一端。
楼副校长一下炸了，带着人冲过去。
陈玉伦。
这种事其实也没什么处理办法，更何况陈玉伦本身也属于为丽北争光的学生，学校不可能因为这件事就处理他。
许庭生在楼副校长耳边嘀咕了几句，迈步走到陈玉伦身边。
“你把我毁了。” 陈玉伦说。
“一个误会而已，你还有592分这个成绩，还有一个好大学。” 许庭生说：“你想过宋妮吗？
陈玉伦语塞。
“她对美好爱情的向往，她的高考，她的前途命运，她的生活，她的心理……几乎全都被你毁了。 所以，我不会同情你。”
“你想怎样？”
“不用怎样，这么多人看着，我们俩站在这里说话，有一会了吧？ ……我相信，这会是你一辈子的阴影。”
从心理上摧毁一个人，许庭生很残忍，但是当他回忆宋妮前世的命运，一个原本乖巧安静的小女孩用跳楼来终结一切，沉默离开，很可能带着终身残疾……哪怕只是她这一世所承受的这些，都足以让许庭生狠下心来。
“这会是你一辈子的阴影。”
“这会是你一辈子的阴影。”
“那个假状元。”
“气量真小。”
“撕横幅，……失心疯吗？”
许庭生走回黄亚明等人中间，远处的教学楼上有很多人在招手：“许庭生学长。”
学长害羞了，其实这场志愿填报会对他来说毫无意义，他懂的比专家们多多了，甚至不少学校，他可以铁口直断，他回来，是为了拿志愿表的。
许庭生一群人在老周办公室里坐了半个小时，拿了志愿表，然后黄亚明他们去听报告会，许庭生没有去，他一个人回了教室。

Chapter 42
There was also someone else who was drunk that night-Chen Yunlun. Whether intentionally or not, no one had told him this piece of news. Some perhaps gloated over his misfortune. Some, perhaps worried that he might not be able to take the news, therefore kept it from it.
Anyway, Chen Yulun got drunk, and had a very blissful dream. He even thought in the dream how good it would be if these were the olden times. Languishing in pride, robe adorned with red flowers, traversing the streets on a horse.
The next morning, Chen Yulun awoke. The dream shattered.
Many people had slept at Xu Tingsheng's house the previous night. With there being insufficient rooms, a few boys had spread a mattress across the ground, smoking as they chatted, grabbing a few bottles of wine in the middle of the night and going back to the room to drink.
Fang Yunyao stayed together with Xu Tingsheng's sister, Xu Qiuyi. They were still yet to know that in Xu Qiuyi's upcoming first year of senior high, Fang Yunyao would be one of her teachers.
It's too beautiful, I don't want to think about it…
Tan Qinglin and Song Ni stayed together. Huang Yaming had asked Song Ni to help persuade Tan Qinglin to give up on repeating the year and go directly to university instead.
Huang Yaming woke up at 2am to go to the toilet, tottering as he went. Still sober, Xu Tingsheng pulled him back, "It can't be, right? This is my house, and that aside, other than Tan Qinglin, there's also Song Ni sleeping there. Are you sure that you want to do such a deed that will anger both humans and divinities alike?"
Huang Yaming felt very wronged, saying that he just wanted to go to the toilet.
Xu Tingsheng didn't believe him, pulling him back and refusing to let him go.
Huang Yaming held his stomach, saying that he really couldn't hold it in anymore.
Not being to hold it in was actually a phrase that could be very easily misunderstood as Xu Tingsheng said, "Will it kill you to hold it in for a day? What if Tan Qinglin cries out? …Everyone collectively listens in on the room together?"
Hot tears filled Huang Yaming's eyes, "…I'm talking about urine, I almost can't hold it in."
Actually having being awake all this time, Fu Cheng told Xu Tingsheng, "It just happens that I want to go too. I'll help you look after him."
"I'll go too then," Xu Tingsheng said.
The three didn't go to the toilet, instead going to the small hill behind Xu Tingsheng's house and playing a very silly game under the moonlight. Who could pee further, it was at most ten feet that year…it was precisely that year now.
Afterwards, the trio sat on the slope of the hill and chatted.
Xu Tingsheng asked Huang Yaming, "What do you and Tan Qingling intend to do?"
Huang Yaming said, "I’m just encouraging her to go for university now. It’s best if we enter the same one, but if it really isn’t possible, we’ll study in the same city, then get married after graduation."
In Xu Tingsheng’s previous life, Tan Qingling hadn’t even blinked as she had dumped Huang Yaming, in the midst of repeating the year, without a second thought. This time round, many things had changed, such as that with Huang Yaming. Still, Tan Qingling’s personality wouldn’t change. As Xu Tingsheng had thought earlier, there was one thing the power of foresight that came together with rebirth couldn’t control-matters of the heart.
Xu Tingsheng said, "If one day, and I’m saying if, if one day, you don’t really possess any capabilities, just being a completely average guy, and Tan Qingling falls in love with someone who is richer and more capable than you, what would you do?"
Huang Yaming said, "She won’t."
Xu Tingsheng could only discard this topic as he turned towards Fu Cheng, asking him, "What about you?…Already having said things to that extent just now, after Ms Fang wakes up tomorrow, what are you planning to do?"
Huang Yaming said, "Just directly push her down."
Fu Cheng said, "I’ve been thinking about it ever since then… but haven’t been able to think of anything. Still, I find that things are pretty good this way. I’ve said whatever I wanted to say, and she’s heard it all as well. I’ve given her a promise, and also given her freedom. What comes after will be the work of time and destiny."
Fu Cheng meant that he would wait, while Ms Fang could let nature run its course. However, this format was in itself already flawed. Ms Fang's age made it such that she could not let nature just run its course. Fu Cheng had lots of time; she did not.
What if they began just like that? This was similarly not fair to Ms Fang. The pressure and fear she would have to bear would be completely incomparable to that bore by Fu Cheng.
This was a dead knot.
Finally, the topic fell to Xu Tingsheng, Huang Yaming and Fu Cheng being extremely curious about his 'love at first sight'.
Xu Tingsheng said, "She's called Xiang Ning."
"Can we meet her?"
"After some time's passed…no, in a few years."……
After the release of the university entrance examination results, schools would usually conduct a seminar regarding the filling up of the graduates' aspiration forms, guiding them on such.
After Xu Tingsheng's group had finished eating breakfast, they swaggered mightily to the school gates.
The large red banners were hung directly down from the tenth grade building closest to the school gates. On one of them was written: Warmly congratulating Student Xu Tingsheng's glorious achievements. Top scholar for Humanities in Libei County, ranked overall third for Humanities in Jiannan City, first in Jianhai Province for Combined Humanities and also awarded the Award of Bravery in Libei County.
"What's that Award of Bravery all about?" Xu Tingsheng was completely stumped.
Possessing superb alcohol tolerance, Vice Principal Lou seemed not to have been drunk the previous night at all as he came over in great strides, laughing heartily, "We got a commendation for you for that matter with SARS. How about it?"
"…Thank you, Vice Principal," Xu Tingsheng had originally thought that that had already been the end of things, that that…violent action of his was not worth giving mention to at all.
They all raised their heads and gazed at the banner.
It was not just them. Including the tenth and eleventh grade students and the graduates and their parents who had come back to attend the seminar, a few thousand people gazed upon the large red banner that drifted with the wind, discussing it animatedly.
'Splendor shines on the family's door'. Suddenly thinking of this idiom, Xu Tingsheng felt pretty good.
At this moment, under everyone's gazes, that banner regarding Xu Tingsheng suddenly grew taut, then drifted down from the rooftop with a ripping sound.
The wind was not big, and the other banners were all fine. Therefore, it must have been pulled off by someone.
A figure stood on the rooftop, an end of the banner in his hands.
Vice Principal Lou exploded, leading people in rushing up towards him.
Chen Yulun.
One could not actually be charged for this kind of thing. Moreover, Chen Yulun was himself also a student who had attained glory for Libei. The school could not possibly charge him just over this matter.
Xu Tingsheng whispered something into Vice Principal Lou's ear before striding over towards Chen Yulun.
"You've ruined me," Chen Yulun said.
"That's just a misunderstanding. You still have a result of 592 marks and a good university," Xu Tingsheng said, "Have you thought about Song Ni? …She's truly the one who has been ruined by you."
Chen Yulun was rendered speechless.
"Her yearning towards a blissful relationship, her university entrance examinations, her future prospects and fate, her life, her psychological state…they were virtually all ruined by you. Therefore, I won't sympathise with you."
"What do you want?"
"I don't need to do anything. The two of us standing here talking with so many others watching on-it's already been a while, right? …I believe that this will be an eternal shadow cast over your heart."
Xu Tingsheng was very cruel to be breaking someone through their mind like this. However, as he recalled Song Ni's fate in his previous life, an originally obedient and quiet little girl trying to end everything through suicide, then leaving silently, very possibly going away with a permanent disability…even if it was just what she had experienced in this life, it was already sufficient for Xu Tingsheng to ruthlessly harden his resolve.
"This will be an eternal shadow cast over your heart."
"This will be an eternal shadow cast over you heart."
"That fake top scholar."
"What a narrow heart."
"Ripping the banner…has he gone crazy?"……
As Xu Tingsheng walked back amidst Huang Yaming and the others, many on the distant classroom buildings were waving to him, "Senior Xu Tingsheng."
This senior was feeling shy. Actually, the seminar on aspirations was completely meaningless for him. He knew much more than the specialists, even many schools did. He could be precise and firm in his resolve. The reason he had returned was to get his aspiration form.
Xu Tingsheng's group sat in Old Zhou's office for half an hour, obtaining the aspiration form. Afterwards, Huang Yaming and the others went to attend the seminar, while Xu Tingsheng instead returned to his classroom alone.

"value": "Chapter 315: Not Just Empty Talk\nThe number of marine race invaders outside of Kunlun wasn't small at all. There were hundreds of them densely packed together. Naturally, not all of them were king level entities—many were minor demons from the marine race like prawn soldiers, crab generals, sea snails, and clams.\nHowever, there were about a dozen king level entities. There was a large variety of life forms with the ocean and the competition among them was intense. As such, there was never a lack of experts.\n\"Is there anyone here with arms and legs? Get out here!\" a certain sea snail cried out. He possessed great racial talents and was holding a seashell in one hand, using it to magnify his voice by several times. His voice reverberated through the mountains, shaking the hills and rocks. The snow on the vegetation rustled down.\nThe majestic Kunlun was grand and vast. Especially after the upheavals, this place had become even more extraordinary. The numerous peaks appeared extremely vigorous and powerful.\n\"Which place in the boondocks did you come from? I only ordered seafood from the southern sea. I see walruses among you. Could it be that you came from the northern sea? I reject these goods. I only want southern seafood!\"\nA minor demon with a loud voice was tasked with shouting back a reply.\nThe horde of marine race experts was so infuriated that their noses almost turned crooked. Because the world was covered in ice and snow, they had formed a special group that was suited to attack in the cold.\nAfter hearing the ridicule from Kunlun's side which regarded them as seafood, all of the invaders wore malicious expressions. Killing intent became evident in their eyes as they firmly decided to kill until corpses piled up and a river of blood flowed within Mount Kunlun.\nThese marine race experts had long since gotten wind that Mount Kunlun was empty and that all their experts had gone to the Himalayas. The secret was leaked even though they tried to hide it.\nThat was because experts who had their eyes on the Himalayas weren't limited to those from Kunlun. Back then, both the Golden Crow and the Peacock King had tried breaking into that place.\nHowever, there were some overcautious people among the marine race who wanted to investigate first. Otherwise, they would've long since charged in like a swarm of bees and change the place into a land of death, leaving nothing alive.\n\"A group of low-level dregs that haven't even transformed dares babble nonsense towards us! In a while, we'll chop you all a thousand times and wash Kunlun with blood. Let's see who among you can escape!\"\nA sea lion spoke with a gloomy expression. He possessed a tall build after transforming into a human, almost three meters tall and held a gigantic metallic hammer in his hands.\nAmong the 18 king level entities, four of them were experts with six severed shackles. This was an extremely shocking lineup.\nIf they weren't worried that there would be odd things within Mount Kunlun, they would've long since killed their way into the mountains. It would absolutely be like pulling out rotten weeds as they sweep through and kill every living being in this place.\n\"I think this place is already empty without any expert. We can dispatch any random squad to slaughter all these small fish,\" said an eel.\nShe had transformed into a lithe and elegant lady, her light yellow hair hung loosely behind her. Her facial features were quite beautiful but her eyes were somewhat sinister.\nThis was an expert with six severed shackles and was also one of the leading characters on this expedition.\nShe was extremely powerful. After she released her aura, the whole snowy mountain rumbled loudly and almost caused an avalanche. This was the power of a top-grade expert. Her released energy was extremely frightening.\nThe group of minor demons on Mount Kunlun were all terrified. Some of them even fell limp to the ground and couldn't stop shaking.\nIn the end, it was a world where one had to rely on strength for everything. Their levels were simply too low and were consequently suppressed. All of them were in the awakened realm and not too far from severing their shackles.\n\"As expected, a group of dregs. Such beasts and birds at the lowest rank dare to provoke us. I'll throw all of them into an iron pot and cook them alive. I'll torture them to death!\" said a certain sea snake, its serpentine tongue flickering out with hissing sounds. The multicolored snake was disdainful of transforming into a human body. Unafraid of the cold, it roamed within the ice and snow like a prismatic formation traversing the land.\nThe minor demons on the mountain were all terrified and dared not to even breathe loudly after seeing the gigantic snake approach from the distant mountains.\n\"Keep on shouting. Don't get stage fright. Don't be afraid.\" Chu Feng arrived. He communicated with these minor demons via telepathy and had them continue acting out the empty fort strategy. [1]\nThat was because he was originally full of vigor and wanted to rush over and start a massacre, but in the end, he hadn't even walked out of the mountain when the silver substance disappeared. He was covered in a layer of dark radiance.\nThis caused Chu Feng to be quite nervous and distressed. He was in great spirits just now but his strength had faded rapidly.\n\"Have you lot forgotten what pain is like? Weren't you all punished on Mount Longhu until you were crying out for mommy and daddy? And you still dare to come here to act so unbridled? Take a look at what this is?!\"\nA minor demon raised a dazzling tail. There was no hair on it but was covered in scales and emanating an intimidating aura.\n\"The tail of the Sea God Tiger?!\" The expressions of those down the mountain changed and a commotion ensued.\nSea God Tigers were an incomparably powerful race in the sea. Although they were few in number and only a few had the qualifications to be addressed by that title, all of their members were extremely ferocious.\nThey naturally knew the incident on Mount Longhu and how the Sea God Tiger had lost his tail. It had caused quite a stir back then.\nAlthough they noticed that the minor demon was actually trembling, they thought that he was intimidated by the aura of the tail. What they didn't know was that the minor demon's heart was pounding from fear of the host of kings down the mountain.\nThe group's expressions were shifting wildly, they felt that this minor demon from Kunlun was extremely impudent. How was he so bold when there were apparently no experts holding the fort?\nThey were worried if people like the old llama returned and were waiting for them to charge in with an open sack?\n\"A group of small fries; merely the lowest of dregs. What do we have to fear? Let's make a move right now. Let's charge in and slaughter them clean. Don't leave any of them alive!\" the eel said coldly.\nShe was graceful and beautiful but her sinister eyes somewhat warped her features. She waved her hand and said, \"Flatten Kunlun!\"\n\"Yes, milady!\"\nSome marine race experts replied. Following which, a group ran out and rushed towards the mountain.\nOn Mount Kunlun, the expressions of the group of minor demons changed. They were truly using an empty fort stratagem and had no strength to fight at all. Their only hope was Chu Feng. He had told them to lift him up and that he would fight a final battle. However, he had almost collapsed just now and was being supported!\nAt this time, Chu Feng's face was green and black—how could he be so unlucky? The black light still hadn't faded and was especially evident on his forehead; it was completely black. This was a literal darkened yintang meridian.\n\"Leopard King, use my bow to kill the brat in the lead!\" said Chu Feng.\n\"Will do!\"\nThe Snow Leopard King pulled open Chu Feng's Thunderous. An arrow made from a king level beast fang began to glow and flew out in the form of an astonishing rainbow.\nPfft!\nA sea beast running at the foremost was blasted apart without even the chance to scream. He was killed both in body and spirit by a single arrow.\n\"Good bow and arrow!\" The Snow Leopard King sighed in admiration. One had to know that it was a king level entity with two severed shackles who was shot to death.\nThe marine race group was petrified. The leader of their small group had been shot and killed, causing a momentary confusion. The others let out odd cries as some fell to the ground and others immediately turned to run.\n\"Just a disorganized mob. They look powerful but is actually nothing much!\" Chu Feng encouraged.\n\"Imbeciles! What are you running for? Shooting an arrow like this means that they're lacking in confidence. If they're really confident, they would open the mountain doors and let us all rush in!\" said the multicolored sea snake. It looked like a train sprawled across the area as it opened its bloody maw and swallowed the fleeing deserters.\nThis shocked everyone. They no longer dared to run in disarray.\n\"Kill! Break open Kunlun and occupy the place. We will enter the home of myriad gods and become deified together. Kill off all the dregs of the continent!\"\n\"I want to see who dares!\"\nChu Feng braced himself and stood out. He appeared on the snowy peak and looked down at the gathered marine race demons.\n\"Chu Feng!\"\n\"What?! He's the Chu Feng who defeated the Sea God Tiger and Killed the Octopus King? I heard he alone killed a part of the marine race forces at Mount Longhu. He's a killing god!\"\n\"Not just a killing god. He's a demon king who has killed so many of our marine race experts. Only a few days ago, the Bronze Tiger and a marine human all died in his hands.\nAs expected, a huge commotion arose. Except for the four experts with six severed shackles, the others all revealed expressions of apprehension.\n\"No need to be afraid. He's already crippled!\" The eel moved to calm down everyone's emotions.\n\"That's right. With his character, he would've long since gone to the Himalayas if he was fine. How would he be recuperating silently like this? Kill him!\" the multicolored snake cried loudly. Its eyes were burning as it gave the command for the horde to charge forth and kill.\nChi!\nIt was at this time that a fishbone spear flew out and rushed towards Chu Feng, breaking through the sound barrier. The weapon seemed to be aiming to take his head—the scene was terrifying.\nSwoosh!\nChu Feng dodged. His movements weren't comparable to before and he almost fell to the ground. There was snow all over his body.\n\"Let's go!\" The Snow Leopard King supported him and escaped towards the interior.\nThat was because Chu Feng had already buried the four Dragon Locking Pillars on his way and laid down the ghostly labyrinth. He wanted all of those people to buzz in.\nThe minor demons of Kunlun all followed him in escape and were headed towards the interior of the mountain.\nThe ghostly labyrinth began to show its effects, but unfortunately, it was only able to trap a portion of the enemy. As for people like the sea snake, the eel, and the sea lion, they didn't charge at the front and were only following from the back. Hence they avoided being affected.\nChu Feng's group escaped towards a different domain area—Hell's Gate.\nThis area could produce lightning and even kill king level entities.\nAfter being affected by the ghostly labyrinth, the people at the back were all apprehensive and didn't dare chase too fast. Furthermore, they were cautiously following the tracks of Chu Feng's group.\n\"Shoot!\" The Snow Leopard King was greatly distressed.\n\"No matter. The time is just about right. Put me down,\" said Chu Feng. This had bought sufficient time for Chu Feng and his body was now starting to turn for the better.\n\"Haha, why aren't you running anymore? Have you lost all hope?!\" The Sea Lion King laughed loudly. His three-meter tall body was like an iron tower.\nThe eel was originally a beautiful lady but now she appeared extremely sinister as she said, \"Chu Feng, even you can't escape such a fate. You've actually turned into a useless person. What do you say we cut off your limbs, turn you into a human pole and go around the streets?\"\nThe spiteful woman wanted to use all kinds of malicious ways to humiliate Chu Feng. If he really fell into her hands, he was bound to live a life worse than death.\n\"Have I ever provoked you before?\" Chu Feng was puzzled.\n\"Let me remind you. You've killed a marine race expert before in Shuntian,\" said the eel.\n\"Oh, I once killed an eel, the self-proclaimed white dragon. Back then, he was colluding with the people from the Pre-Qin Research Institute. Is he your relative?\" Chu Feng smiled, happy to stall for more time.\n\"Roar…\" Heather, the eel, let out a loud roar which shook the mountains.\nMore importantly, its body was too large and could look down on everyone, especially Chu Feng. \"How laughable, you've actually become a small fish who can't even stand the wind. Today, I'll torment you slowly today, hack off your four limbs and cook them!\"\nAt this time, the marine race troops had rushed in. All of them were excited as they stared at Chu Feng. This legendary killer god, Demon King Chu, had actually become a cripple and was trapped by them. If they could tear some flesh off of his body, it would become something to boast about upon their return to the sea.\n\"Enough. Stop retreating and leave everything to me!\" Chu Feng instructed the group of minor demons.\nBecause those minor demons were all shocked out of their wits. They looked pale and all of them seemed to be in despair.\n\"Lift me up, I'm still quite weak,\" Chu Feng said to a minor demon nearby.\nThe little demon was about to cry. How was Chu Feng going to fight in such a condition? He seemed as if he had a kidney deficiency and couldn't even stand straight. [2]\nThe marine race people were all laughing loudly. Everyone from top-grade kings to ordinary minor demons, all of them wore expressions of ridicule. They were incomparably delighted to be able to see the legendary Demon King Chu's miserable state.\n\"Dreg, small fish, get over here!\" The sea snake sneered. Its snake tongue, almost a dozen meters long, flickered between its open mouth. It was a frightening sight.\nSilver light was flowing on Chu Feng's skin. He was no longer worried and let out a faint smile. \"Who are you addressing as small fish? You're the obvious seafood here—roasted eel, garlic paste scallops, scallion sea cucumber and braised lobster—I'm even starting to drool now!\"\nThe Snow Leopard King saw Chu Feng's state and noticed something. He was now quite relieved.\n\"Get over here!\" the eel rebuked.\nBoom!\nThe whole of the snowy land was blasted apart as Chu Feng rushed over. His speed had almost reached six times that of sound—it was simply too terrifying. It was even more powerful than his usual state.\n\"Ah!\"\nThe sea lion was the first to let out a cry. He received the first blow and was smashed to pieces by Chu Feng's fist.\nAt the same time, Chu Feng's body moved sideways and his legs swept out like scissors. With a pfft, the eel cried in shock as her body was cut into two. She was now rolling on the ground.\nThump!\nThe next moment, Chu Feng landed on the ground as he snapped her neck with a palm strike.\n\"Oh god, run!\" someone shouted loudly.\nMany people had noticed that the Demon King Chu had returned. He wasn't a cripple—everything was a hoax.\n\"You evil man. This is too shameless!\" the sea snake cried out in anger as it scuttled away with a swoosh.\nThe other marine race members were all shocked and terrified. Two of their six experts had been killed in the blink of an eye. How could this not make them terrified? Everyone began to flee for their lives.\nEveryone sensed that Chu Feng's body was perfectly fine and that he was pretending all along.\nBut how could they escape? The moment Chu Feng's flying knife shot out, it simply swept through everything. All the sea creatures turned into their true forms as a scarlet beam of light swept forward—they had all been killed!\nBoom!\nChu Feng rose into the air and caught up with a sea snake whereupon a battle ensued. In the end, that train-like gigantic body was torn apart from its gigantic head. The carcass fell into the snow grounds with a boom.\n\"You want to run?!\"\nChu Feng saw a scallop, the last of the experts with six severed shackles. He wanted to mix in with the crowd and escape.\nBoom!\nHe had long since been marked by Chu Feng. An attack arrived at six times the speed of sound and pierced through him, killing him immediately.\nAs the flying knife flew up, the whole area was left with hundreds of corpses. It was an absolute massacre which shook all the minor demons of Mount Kunlun.\nChu Feng was worried that his level would drop at any moment, so he didn't hold back at all. He used all his might and wanted nothing more than to kill every marine race invader.\nTherefore, the whole scene became a bloodbath which shocked all the minor demons of Kunlun. Demon King Chu had revealed his might and performed a final battle—it wasn't just empty talk.\nFinally, he had killed every last one of the marine race. None of them escaped!\n\"Will the marine race… go crazy?\" The Snow Leopard King's expression was odd. He wondered if the experts in the sea would stomp their feet and go crazy after hearing of the battle results.\nEven the minor demons firmly believed Chu Feng hadn't been crippled and was just pretending.\nOnce news of this incident spreads to the outside world, everyone would likely curse him. Anyone facing him would probably run away if he said he would engage in a final battle. If it was the marine race, they would probably start cursing wildly."

第三百一十五章
昆仑山外，海族来的还真不算少，密密麻麻，足有数百人，当然不可能都是王级生物，很多都是海族中的小妖，比如虾兵蟹将，海螺花蛤等。
不过，光是王级生物也足有十几尊左右，大洋中生物种类繁多，竞争激烈，最不缺少的就是强者。 “有带胳膊带腿的吗？
赶紧滚出来几个！” 一只海螺精在那里叫嚷，种族天赋很强，手持一个海螺壳，将声音放大很多倍，在群山间回荡，震的山石、树木上的积雪都簌簌滚落。
巍巍昆仑，山势壮阔，尤其是天地异变后这里越发的不凡，一座又一座山体都非常的雄浑。
“你们哪旮旯的？ 我们只订了南面的海鲜，看你们当中还有企鹅、海象，该不会是从北面过来的吧，退货，不要，我们只要南海的水产品！”
山上，一个大嗓门的小妖负责喊话与回应。
昆仑山前，一群海族强者鼻子都要气歪了，由于陆地上冰天雪地，他们特异调了一些适合在冰雪中出击的人马。
现在听到昆仑山的人调侃，视他们为海鲜，一个个都神色不善，面带杀机，决定这一次杀的昆仑山血流成河，尸骨无存。
这些海族强者早已得到消息，如今昆仑山空虚，高手都去喜马拉雅山了，哪怕再保密还是泄露了。
因为，盯着喜马拉雅山的强者不止昆仑这里，当初孔雀王、金乌王就曾去闯过。 海族在陆地上有合作者，消息非常灵通，已经了解透彻。
不过，海族中有人过于谨慎，想先进一步试探，不然的话他们早已一窝蜂的杀进去了，让这里成为死地，寸草不留。
“一群最底层的渣子，还没有化形呢，也敢跟我们胡言乱语，一会儿将你们全都斩上一千刀，血洗昆仑，我看你们哪个能逃走！”
一头海狮说道，神色阴沉，化成人形后体形高大，能有一丈，手中提着一对巨大的金属锤。
十八位海族王级强者中，有四人撕裂六道枷锁，这是一股非常惊人的力量。
如果他们不是担心昆仑山有古怪，早已直接杀进山脉中，绝对摧枯拉朽，将这片地带横扫，将所有生灵杀个干净。
“我看这里空了，并没有什么高手，随便派出一股人马就能屠掉这群小杂鱼！” 一头海鳗说道。
她化成一个女子，身段婀娜，一头淡黄色发丝披散，鸭蛋脸倒也很漂亮，但是一双眼睛有些阴冷。
这是一位挣断六道枷锁的海族高手，也是这次的领军人物之一。
她很强，气息散发后，让雪山都隆隆作响，简直要发生大雪崩，这是顶级王者的气势，能量散发后很可怕。
昆仑山一群小妖都恐惧，非常的害怕，有些人甚至瘫软在地上，瑟瑟发抖，难以动弹。
说到底现在是依靠实力说话的世界，他们境界层次太低，都在觉醒境，离撕裂枷锁还远，被压制了。
“果然是一群渣子，最底层的飞禽走兽也敢对我们挑衅，一个个都给我扔进铁锅中，活活煮熟，慢慢折磨死！” 一头海蛇说道，嘶嘶吐蛇信子，色彩斑斓，不屑于化形为人，在冰天雪地中游动，无惧严寒，宛若一条彩色列陈横陈在那里。
当看到这么恐怖的巨蛇从远处山地中游来，出现在昆仑山近前，山上的小妖更恐惧了，大气都不敢出。
“继续喊话，千万不要怯场，不要害怕！” 楚风来了，以精神跟一些小妖交流，让他们唱空城计。
因为，他原本兴致勃勃，赶来这里想大开杀戒，结果还没走到山门银色物质就消失了，他整具躯体上都是一层乌光。
这让楚风头大，刚才还在很兴奋呢，结果力量迅速衰退，实在让他犯怵。
“你们是不是忘记痛了，在龙虎山时就被杀的哭爹喊娘，还敢跑这里来撒野，看一看这是什么？ ！”
一名小妖手持一根金灿灿的尾巴，上面没有毛，都是鳞片，散发着摄人心脾的气息。
这只小妖在发抖，双股战战，牙齿打颤，到后来说话都不利索了。 “海神虎的尾巴？
海神虎那可是海中无比强大的一个族群，虽然数量稀少，有资格用那个称谓的没有多少头，但只要是该族成员，都厉害的恐怖。
他们自然知道龙虎山的事，海神虎断尾而去，曾引发不小的波澜。
他们虽然发现那小妖话语颤抖，但以为是手持那根尾巴，被那上面的气息所震慑的，却不知那小妖是心中打鼓，害怕山下的群王。
山下一群人神色阴晴不定，都觉得昆仑山的小妖很放肆，分明没有什么高手坐镇，怎么还敢如此？
他们在担心，莫不是老喇嘛等人回来了，已经张开口袋，等着他们闯进去？
“一群杂鱼，最烂的渣子而已，有什么可担心的，给我杀，现在就出手，闯进去将他们杀个干净，一个活口都不要留！” 海鳗寒声道。
她窈窕秀丽，但是眼神阴森，美丽容貌都有些扭曲了，挥手道：“踏平昆仑！”
“是！”
有海族强者回应，当即就有一队人马奔跑起来，向前冲去，要杀进山中。
昆仑山上，一群小妖的面色都变了，他们的确在唱空城计，根本就没有什么实力迎战，唯一的倚仗是楚风，说好扶他起来进行最后一战，结果刚才又差点倒下，现在还被人扶着呢！
此时，楚风的脸有些绿，有些黑，怎么这么倒霉啊，此刻乌光还没有退去呢，尤其是额头那里，更是一片乌黑，这可真是名副其实的印堂发暗。
“豹王，用我的弓箭射杀领头的那个小子！” 楚风说道。
“好！”
雪豹王张开楚风的大雷音弓，一根王级兽牙打磨成的箭羽发光，最后化成一道惊天长虹飞了出去。
噗！
奔跑在最前方的一头海兽连惨叫都没有来得及发出，直接爆碎，被一箭射杀，形神俱灭。
“好弓箭！” 雪豹王赞叹，要知道那可是一位撕裂两道枷锁的王级生物，就这么被他给直接射死了。
海族都被惊住了，领头的小队头目被射杀，让那股海族人马顿时慌乱，其他人怪叫，有的伏倒在地上，有的直接调头向回逃。
“一群乌合之众，看着人多，但其实没什么大不了！” 楚风说道，想鼓舞士气。
可是，昆仑山上众人明白，那群海族强者再怎么缺少血勇，也不是他们所能够对抗的，实力差的太远了。 “蠢货，逃什么逃，这样放箭说明他们心虚，真要有底气的话就直接开山门让我们闯进去了！”
这震慑住了所有人，再也不敢有人慌乱逃窜。
“给我杀，破开昆仑，我们占据这里，入主万神之乡，他日一起成神，将陆地上这些渣子都给我杀干净！”
“我看哪个敢！”
楚风硬着头皮站出，出现在雪岭上，俯视着下方，看着海族众妖。
“楚风！”
“什么，他就是楚风，击败海神虎，杀了章鱼王，听闻他一个人在龙虎山就杀了我们海族小半人马，是一个杀神！”
“何止杀神，这是一个魔王，杀了我们海洋中太多的高手，数日前的青铜虎、海人等也都死在他的手里。”
海族果然一阵大乱，除却那四位挣断六道枷锁的高手外，其他人都露出惶恐之色。
“不用怕，他已经废掉了！”
海鳗稳定众人的情绪。 “不错，依照他的性格，如果身体无恙，早就跟着去喜马拉雅山了，怎么可能会在这样安静的修养，给我宰了他！” 色彩斑斓的海蛇也大叫，眼神炽热，吩咐众人立刻冲杀。
哧！
就在这时，一根鱼骨矛飞出，冲着楚风就飞去，突破音障，景象恐怖，直取他的头颅。
嗖！
楚风躲避，身手大不如从前，险些摔倒在地上，沾了不少雪花。
“我们走！” 雪豹王扶着他，快速向里遁去。
因为，在来的路上，楚风埋下四根锁龙桩，布下鬼打墙，想等这些人入瓮。
昆仑山的小妖跟着一块大逃亡，向山内撤去。
鬼打墙的确起作用了，但很可惜只困住一部分人，至于海蛇、海鳗、海狮等都跟在后面，没有冲锋，见状都避开了。 早先他们没有硬闯，就是担心昆仑山古怪，有场域等。
楚风他们一路逃向另一片场域区——地狱之门。
这片地带可出现雷电，能杀王级生物。
受到鬼打墙的影响，后面的人越发忌惮，追赶的并不快，而且开始沿着他们的脚步在追，非常谨慎。
“坏了！” 雪豹王头大如斗。
“无妨，时间差不多了，放我下来。” 楚风说道，已经为他争取到足够的时间，他觉得身体开始好转了。
！” 海狮哈哈大笑不已，一丈高的躯体跟一截铁塔似的。
海鳗，身为女子，原本很漂亮，但现在却非常的阴冷，道：“楚风，你也有今日，竟成为了一个废物，如果将你斩掉四肢，削成人棍，然后去游街，你说好不好？”
她带着恨意，想用各种恶毒的方式羞辱楚风，真要落在她手里，注定生不如死。
“我惹过你吗？” 楚风诧异。
“给你提个醒，你在顺天杀过一位海族强者。” 海鳗说道。
“哦，杀过一个自称为白龙的海鳗，他当时跟先秦研究院的人走一起，不会跟你是亲戚吧？” 楚风微笑，乐得再耽搁片刻时间。
“吼……”海瑟大吼，地动山摇，在这里引发雪浪汹涌，宛若雪崩般，景象骇人。
最主要它体形太大了，俯视着所有人，尤其是楚风，道：“可笑，你居然成为了杂鱼，弱不禁风，今天慢慢折磨你，斩掉四肢作甚，直接煮熟你的四肢！”
这时，海族的人马都冲过来了，一个个都很兴奋，盯着楚风，这可是传说中的杀神，大魔王，现在居然废掉了，被他们堵在这里，真要是能从他身上撕下一块肉，以后回到海中都算是惊人的谈资。
“好了，别退了，这里一切都交给我！” 楚风对一群小妖说道。
因为，那群小妖现在可是吓坏了，面色苍白，一个个都绝望了。
“扶我一把，身子还略虚。” 楚风对身边一个小妖说道。
那个小妖都哭了，都这样了，还怎么去战？ 跟肾虚似的，站都站不稳。
海族那边一群人都在大笑，无论是顶级王者，还是普通的小妖都带着嘲讽之色，能够看到传说中的楚魔王这副糗态，他们无比开心，异常的兴奋。
“渣子，杂鱼，你还是滚过来吧！” 海蛇冷笑道，张嘴间，蛇信子吐出，足有十几米长，让人惊悚。
楚风肌肤有银光流淌，他现在一点也不担心了，带着淡笑道：“你们称呼谁是杂鱼？ 明明你们自己都是海鲜，烤鳗鱼、蒜茸扇贝、葱爆海参、红烧澳龙，说的我都流口水了！”
雪豹王看到他的这个样子，心中有数，彻底放心了。
“滚过来！” 海鳗轻叱。
轰！
这片雪地炸开，他冲了过去，简直恐怖的骇人，都快接近六倍音速了，比正常状态的他还要厉害。
“啊！”
海狮第一个大叫，他首当其冲，被楚风一拳轰的爆碎。
同时，楚风身子横起，双腿如同剪刀般扫出，噗的一声，海鳗惊悚大叫，她的身体被剪断，在地上翻滚。
砰！
楚风落地的刹那，又将她的颈项一掌斩断。
“天啊，逃啊！” 有人大叫。
许多人意识到，楚大魔王又回来了，这不是废掉，而是在佯装。
“你这个阴人，太无耻了！” 海蛇怒叫，嗖的一声逃窜出去。
其他海族也惊恐，就这么一瞬间，挣断六道枷锁的高手就死了两个，让他们怎么不恐惧，全都逃亡。
所有人都觉得，楚风的身体无恙，一切都是他装的。
但是，他们怎么逃得了，楚风飞剑祭出的刹那，简直是横扫，一道赤霞腾起，扫过前方，各种海中生物显出原形，因为都被扫杀了！
轰！
楚风腾空，追杀海蛇，跟他激战，在刺目的光芒中，最终那头跟火车一般巨大的色彩斑斓的大蛇被楚风在高空中撕裂下庞大的头颅，尸体轰隆一声倒在雪地中。
“想跑？
楚风看到一只扇贝，是最后一名挣断六道枷锁的生灵，想混在人群中逃走。
轰！
它早被楚风盯上了，六倍音速冲击，直接将它打穿，死于非命。
随着飞剑腾起，这片地带死尸数百，这是一场屠杀，震撼昆仑山众妖。
楚风现在担心自己境界随时会跌落，所以毫无保留，全力以赴，恨不得在第一时间斩杀所有来犯的海族。
故此，场面血腥，将昆仑山的小妖们都给吓坏了，楚魔王发威，进行所谓的最后一战，真的不是说说而已。
最后，他杀光所有海族，一个都没有逃走！
“海族……会不会疯掉啊？” 雪豹王面色古怪，当海里的那些高手知道这里的结果后，估计全都要跳脚，发狂。
就是昆仑山上的小妖都坚信，楚风没有废掉，一切都是佯装的。
这里的事传出去后，估计外界的人也会腹诽楚风，下次他要是在再说进行最后一战，面对他的人可能会直接逃走，如果是海族，多半会先大骂他一顿。

Chapter 315: Not Just Empty Talk
The number of marine race invaders outside of Kunlun wasn't small at all. There were hundreds of them densely packed together. Naturally, not all of them were king level entities—many were minor demons from the marine race like prawn soldiers, crab generals, sea snails, and clams.
However, there were about a dozen king level entities. There was a large variety of life forms with the ocean and the competition among them was intense. As such, there was never a lack of experts.
"Is there anyone here with arms and legs? Get out here!" a certain sea snail cried out. He possessed great racial talents and was holding a seashell in one hand, using it to magnify his voice by several times. His voice reverberated through the mountains, shaking the hills and rocks. The snow on the vegetation rustled down.
The majestic Kunlun was grand and vast. Especially after the upheavals, this place had become even more extraordinary. The numerous peaks appeared extremely vigorous and powerful.
"Which place in the boondocks did you come from? I only ordered seafood from the southern sea. I see walruses among you. Could it be that you came from the northern sea? I reject these goods. I only want southern seafood!"
A minor demon with a loud voice was tasked with shouting back a reply.
The horde of marine race experts was so infuriated that their noses almost turned crooked. Because the world was covered in ice and snow, they had formed a special group that was suited to attack in the cold.
After hearing the ridicule from Kunlun's side which regarded them as seafood, all of the invaders wore malicious expressions. Killing intent became evident in their eyes as they firmly decided to kill until corpses piled up and a river of blood flowed within Mount Kunlun.
These marine race experts had long since gotten wind that Mount Kunlun was empty and that all their experts had gone to the Himalayas. The secret was leaked even though they tried to hide it.
That was because experts who had their eyes on the Himalayas weren't limited to those from Kunlun. Back then, both the Golden Crow and the Peacock King had tried breaking into that place.
However, there were some overcautious people among the marine race who wanted to investigate first. Otherwise, they would've long since charged in like a swarm of bees and change the place into a land of death, leaving nothing alive.
"A group of low-level dregs that haven't even transformed dares babble nonsense towards us! In a while, we'll chop you all a thousand times and wash Kunlun with blood. Let's see who among you can escape!"
A sea lion spoke with a gloomy expression. He possessed a tall build after transforming into a human, almost three meters tall and held a gigantic metallic hammer in his hands.
Among the 18 king level entities, four of them were experts with six severed shackles. This was an extremely shocking lineup.
If they weren't worried that there would be odd things within Mount Kunlun, they would've long since killed their way into the mountains. It would absolutely be like pulling out rotten weeds as they sweep through and kill every living being in this place.
"I think this place is already empty without any expert. We can dispatch any random squad to slaughter all these small fish," said an eel.
She had transformed into a lithe and elegant lady, her light yellow hair hung loosely behind her. Her facial features were quite beautiful but her eyes were somewhat sinister.
This was an expert with six severed shackles and was also one of the leading characters on this expedition.
She was extremely powerful. After she released her aura, the whole snowy mountain rumbled loudly and almost caused an avalanche. This was the power of a top-grade expert. Her released energy was extremely frightening.
The group of minor demons on Mount Kunlun were all terrified. Some of them even fell limp to the ground and couldn't stop shaking.
In the end, it was a world where one had to rely on strength for everything. Their levels were simply too low and were consequently suppressed. All of them were in the awakened realm and not too far from severing their shackles.
"As expected, a group of dregs. Such beasts and birds at the lowest rank dare to provoke us. I'll throw all of them into an iron pot and cook them alive. I'll torture them to death!" said a certain sea snake, its serpentine tongue flickering out with hissing sounds. The multicolored snake was disdainful of transforming into a human body. Unafraid of the cold, it roamed within the ice and snow like a prismatic formation traversing the land.
The minor demons on the mountain were all terrified and dared not to even breathe loudly after seeing the gigantic snake approach from the distant mountains.
"Keep on shouting. Don't get stage fright. Don't be afraid." Chu Feng arrived. He communicated with these minor demons via telepathy and had them continue acting out the empty fort strategy. [1]
That was because he was originally full of vigor and wanted to rush over and start a massacre, but in the end, he hadn't even walked out of the mountain when the silver substance disappeared. He was covered in a layer of dark radiance.
This caused Chu Feng to be quite nervous and distressed. He was in great spirits just now but his strength had faded rapidly.
"Have you lot forgotten what pain is like? Weren't you all punished on Mount Longhu until you were crying out for mommy and daddy? And you still dare to come here to act so unbridled? Take a look at what this is?!"
A minor demon raised a dazzling tail. There was no hair on it but was covered in scales and emanating an intimidating aura.
"The tail of the Sea God Tiger?!" The expressions of those down the mountain changed and a commotion ensued.
Sea God Tigers were an incomparably powerful race in the sea. Although they were few in number and only a few had the qualifications to be addressed by that title, all of their members were extremely ferocious.
They naturally knew the incident on Mount Longhu and how the Sea God Tiger had lost his tail. It had caused quite a stir back then.
Although they noticed that the minor demon was actually trembling, they thought that he was intimidated by the aura of the tail. What they didn't know was that the minor demon's heart was pounding from fear of the host of kings down the mountain.
The group's expressions were shifting wildly, they felt that this minor demon from Kunlun was extremely impudent. How was he so bold when there were apparently no experts holding the fort?
They were worried if people like the old llama returned and were waiting for them to charge in with an open sack?
"A group of small fries; merely the lowest of dregs. What do we have to fear? Let's make a move right now. Let's charge in and slaughter them clean. Don't leave any of them alive!" the eel said coldly.
She was graceful and beautiful but her sinister eyes somewhat warped her features. She waved her hand and said, "Flatten Kunlun!"
"Yes, milady!"
Some marine race experts replied. Following which, a group ran out and rushed towards the mountain.
On Mount Kunlun, the expressions of the group of minor demons changed. They were truly using an empty fort stratagem and had no strength to fight at all. Their only hope was Chu Feng. He had told them to lift him up and that he would fight a final battle. However, he had almost collapsed just now and was being supported!
At this time, Chu Feng's face was green and black—how could he be so unlucky? The black light still hadn't faded and was especially evident on his forehead; it was completely black. This was a literal darkened yintang meridian.
"Leopard King, use my bow to kill the brat in the lead!" said Chu Feng.
"Will do!"
The Snow Leopard King pulled open Chu Feng's Thunderous. An arrow made from a king level beast fang began to glow and flew out in the form of an astonishing rainbow.
Pfft!
A sea beast running at the foremost was blasted apart without even the chance to scream. He was killed both in body and spirit by a single arrow.
"Good bow and arrow!" The Snow Leopard King sighed in admiration. One had to know that it was a king level entity with two severed shackles who was shot to death.
The marine race group was petrified. The leader of their small group had been shot and killed, causing a momentary confusion. The others let out odd cries as some fell to the ground and others immediately turned to run.
"Just a disorganized mob. They look powerful but is actually nothing much!" Chu Feng encouraged.
"Imbeciles! What are you running for? Shooting an arrow like this means that they're lacking in confidence. If they're really confident, they would open the mountain doors and let us all rush in!" said the multicolored sea snake. It looked like a train sprawled across the area as it opened its bloody maw and swallowed the fleeing deserters.
This shocked everyone. They no longer dared to run in disarray.
"Kill! Break open Kunlun and occupy the place. We will enter the home of myriad gods and become deified together. Kill off all the dregs of the continent!"
"I want to see who dares!"
Chu Feng braced himself and stood out. He appeared on the snowy peak and looked down at the gathered marine race demons.
"Chu Feng!"
"What?! He's the Chu Feng who defeated the Sea God Tiger and Killed the Octopus King? I heard he alone killed a part of the marine race forces at Mount Longhu. He's a killing god!"
"Not just a killing god. He's a demon king who has killed so many of our marine race experts. Only a few days ago, the Bronze Tiger and a marine human all died in his hands.
As expected, a huge commotion arose. Except for the four experts with six severed shackles, the others all revealed expressions of apprehension.
"No need to be afraid. He's already crippled!" The eel moved to calm down everyone's emotions.
"That's right. With his character, he would've long since gone to the Himalayas if he was fine. How would he be recuperating silently like this? Kill him!" the multicolored snake cried loudly. Its eyes were burning as it gave the command for the horde to charge forth and kill.
Chi!
It was at this time that a fishbone spear flew out and rushed towards Chu Feng, breaking through the sound barrier. The weapon seemed to be aiming to take his head—the scene was terrifying.
Swoosh!
Chu Feng dodged. His movements weren't comparable to before and he almost fell to the ground. There was snow all over his body.
"Let's go!" The Snow Leopard King supported him and escaped towards the interior.
That was because Chu Feng had already buried the four Dragon Locking Pillars on his way and laid down the ghostly labyrinth. He wanted all of those people to buzz in.
The minor demons of Kunlun all followed him in escape and were headed towards the interior of the mountain.
The ghostly labyrinth began to show its effects, but unfortunately, it was only able to trap a portion of the enemy. As for people like the sea snake, the eel, and the sea lion, they didn't charge at the front and were only following from the back. Hence they avoided being affected.
Chu Feng's group escaped towards a different domain area—Hell's Gate.
This area could produce lightning and even kill king level entities.
After being affected by the ghostly labyrinth, the people at the back were all apprehensive and didn't dare chase too fast. Furthermore, they were cautiously following the tracks of Chu Feng's group.
"Shoot!" The Snow Leopard King was greatly distressed.
"No matter. The time is just about right. Put me down," said Chu Feng. This had bought sufficient time for Chu Feng and his body was now starting to turn for the better.
"Haha, why aren't you running anymore? Have you lost all hope?!" The Sea Lion King laughed loudly. His three-meter tall body was like an iron tower.
The eel was originally a beautiful lady but now she appeared extremely sinister as she said, "Chu Feng, even you can't escape such a fate. You've actually turned into a useless person. What do you say we cut off your limbs, turn you into a human pole and go around the streets?"
The spiteful woman wanted to use all kinds of malicious ways to humiliate Chu Feng. If he really fell into her hands, he was bound to live a life worse than death.
"Have I ever provoked you before?" Chu Feng was puzzled.
"Let me remind you. You've killed a marine race expert before in Shuntian," said the eel.
"Oh, I once killed an eel, the self-proclaimed white dragon. Back then, he was colluding with the people from the Pre-Qin Research Institute. Is he your relative?" Chu Feng smiled, happy to stall for more time.
"Roar…" Heather, the eel, let out a loud roar which shook the mountains.
More importantly, its body was too large and could look down on everyone, especially Chu Feng. "How laughable, you've actually become a small fish who can't even stand the wind. Today, I'll torment you slowly today, hack off your four limbs and cook them!"
At this time, the marine race troops had rushed in. All of them were excited as they stared at Chu Feng. This legendary killer god, Demon King Chu, had actually become a cripple and was trapped by them. If they could tear some flesh off of his body, it would become something to boast about upon their return to the sea.
"Enough. Stop retreating and leave everything to me!" Chu Feng instructed the group of minor demons.
Because those minor demons were all shocked out of their wits. They looked pale and all of them seemed to be in despair.
"Lift me up, I'm still quite weak," Chu Feng said to a minor demon nearby.
The little demon was about to cry. How was Chu Feng going to fight in such a condition? He seemed as if he had a kidney deficiency and couldn't even stand straight. [2]
The marine race people were all laughing loudly. Everyone from top-grade kings to ordinary minor demons, all of them wore expressions of ridicule. They were incomparably delighted to be able to see the legendary Demon King Chu's miserable state.
"Dreg, small fish, get over here!" The sea snake sneered. Its snake tongue, almost a dozen meters long, flickered between its open mouth. It was a frightening sight.
Silver light was flowing on Chu Feng's skin. He was no longer worried and let out a faint smile. "Who are you addressing as small fish? You're the obvious seafood here—roasted eel, garlic paste scallops, scallion sea cucumber and braised lobster—I'm even starting to drool now!"
The Snow Leopard King saw Chu Feng's state and noticed something. He was now quite relieved.
"Get over here!" the eel rebuked.
Boom!
The whole of the snowy land was blasted apart as Chu Feng rushed over. His speed had almost reached six times that of sound—it was simply too terrifying. It was even more powerful than his usual state.
"Ah!"
The sea lion was the first to let out a cry. He received the first blow and was smashed to pieces by Chu Feng's fist.
At the same time, Chu Feng's body moved sideways and his legs swept out like scissors. With a pfft, the eel cried in shock as her body was cut into two. She was now rolling on the ground.
Thump!
The next moment, Chu Feng landed on the ground as he snapped her neck with a palm strike.
"Oh god, run!" someone shouted loudly.
Many people had noticed that the Demon King Chu had returned. He wasn't a cripple—everything was a hoax.
"You evil man. This is too shameless!" the sea snake cried out in anger as it scuttled away with a swoosh.
The other marine race members were all shocked and terrified. Two of their six experts had been killed in the blink of an eye. How could this not make them terrified? Everyone began to flee for their lives.
Everyone sensed that Chu Feng's body was perfectly fine and that he was pretending all along.
But how could they escape? The moment Chu Feng's flying knife shot out, it simply swept through everything. All the sea creatures turned into their true forms as a scarlet beam of light swept forward—they had all been killed!
Boom!
Chu Feng rose into the air and caught up with a sea snake whereupon a battle ensued. In the end, that train-like gigantic body was torn apart from its gigantic head. The carcass fell into the snow grounds with a boom.
"You want to run?!"
Chu Feng saw a scallop, the last of the experts with six severed shackles. He wanted to mix in with the crowd and escape.
Boom!
He had long since been marked by Chu Feng. An attack arrived at six times the speed of sound and pierced through him, killing him immediately.
As the flying knife flew up, the whole area was left with hundreds of corpses. It was an absolute massacre which shook all the minor demons of Mount Kunlun.
Chu Feng was worried that his level would drop at any moment, so he didn't hold back at all. He used all his might and wanted nothing more than to kill every marine race invader.
Therefore, the whole scene became a bloodbath which shocked all the minor demons of Kunlun. Demon King Chu had revealed his might and performed a final battle—it wasn't just empty talk.
Finally, he had killed every last one of the marine race. None of them escaped!
"Will the marine race… go crazy?" The Snow Leopard King's expression was odd. He wondered if the experts in the sea would stomp their feet and go crazy after hearing of the battle results.
Even the minor demons firmly believed Chu Feng hadn't been crippled and was just pretending.
Once news of this incident spreads to the outside world, everyone would likely curse him. Anyone facing him would probably run away if he said he would engage in a final battle. If it was the marine race, they would probably start cursing wildly.

Now, they will never dare to return to the capital, even if we don’t take the initiative to attack them.” Xiu-Er kept her head low, “Yes.”\n“However, that Mu Zi-He actually dared to abuse you.

You are speculating things accurately, master.”\n“Hmm. But most of the other people from those sects haven’t gone back, right?”\n“Yes.” “These men are staying here so that they can associate with the noble clans or even the royal clan, right?”\n“This is not something special. These guys would never turn back without gaining some profits every time they leave their territories. These noble clans, officials and royal clans are exactly those who could offer them the profits they want.”\nThere seemed to be a sense of disdain on his face. He sneered as he continued, “In fact, this world is truly weird. The noble clans regard the royal clan as a foolish entity, while those sects think that the people of the noble clans are fools. In the meantime, the royal clan considers the other two to be fools. It is like a bunch of fools playing a recurrent stupid game…”\n“The noble clans are using the royal clan.

The maid understands.”\n“Hmm, have you settled on a plan?”\n“The maid knows that as long as we kill one or two of the important characters of those sects that are in the capital… and plant some false trails… then the balance of the sects will be broken. Afterwards, we will draw the noble clans into the disturbance within the sects. When that happens, the royal clan will surely become involved… After that, no matter what the consequence will be, the balance will surely be broken, and massive cracks would have shown up for us to exploit.”\nThe man in white nodded with satisfaction, “Your strategy is quite good. That is how it should be. However, you missed something. There are still wise men in the royal clan. The royal clan is the source of all disasters…”\n“The disturbance should begin with this.

It was you who demanded us to try to sell it out in every big auction. We had to sell it out no matter what price it cost… in case it humiliates you.\nNow we just got this ‘hot potato’ sold, yet you came right away to ask such a question.\nWhat does it mean?]\n“It has been sold.” He composed himself and answered gingerly.\n“Sold?” The big boss Wan Zheng-Hao’s body quivered a little and his face suddenly turned pale.

The big boss’s white fat face suddenly turned grey.\nThe man in black beside him frowned and asked, “Can we still find that guy now?”\n“Yes. We absolutely can.” Guan Wan-Shan confidently answered, “Because, after the auction, he didn’t take all the money he had earned.

Besides, he is short of money at the moment, so he won’t give it up.”\nWan Zheng-Hao and the man in black sighed with relief at the same time. They laughed and spoke in a chorus, “That’s good. That’s good!”\n“Well since it’s like this, I think we should live in Chen-Xing City for some time. We can leave whenever we get back the Cosmic Hades.” The man in black made a decision straight away."

第六十四章
居然住了一夜皮肤变好了……就算是没发生那种事情,那么,其他的事情也必然发生过了……要不然一个女孩儿怎么会突然间容光焕发？
王妃心中暗忖。 于是乎,苏夜月被理所应当的禁足了。
当然,小丫头更加想不到,自己的禁足……纯粹就是因为自己炫耀的一句话。
土山里。
竹林中。
“秀儿这一次行动冒失了,请公子爷重重责罚。” 一身白衣的秀儿低着头,站在那轮椅上的白衣公子面前。
白衣人微微的眯着眼睛,悄然叹了口气,道：“秀儿……你这一次的举动,可是将咱们的计划破坏了不少……慕氏家族这边,经过这件事之后,就算咱们不主动找他们麻烦,恐怕短时间之内,也断断不敢到京城来了。”
“不过那个慕子河居然敢骂你,也就是咎由自取,取死有道。” 白衣公子淡淡的笑了笑：“无所谓,我本来也打算要利用叶府的事情,调动一下天下风云……而且现在看来,这个计划暂且搁置一下,未必就是什么坏事。”
让叶府从焦头烂额、百般无计之中,突然解脱了出来……”白衣人皱着眉：“这件事……单从表面上看,一切都是顺理成章,完纯属巧合……但,我却感觉其中有一个人在穿针引线,推波助澜促成此事？”
秀儿低着头,说道：“若是当真在这次事件中推波助澜穿针引线的话,那人定然就是那个风之凌。”
“还有,近期要注意三国战事,尽快将之挑起。”
“唯有王朝兴衰更迭气运,才能够制造足够多的血腥,促使我的修为尽快恢复……抓紧一下时间。”
“秀儿你负责三国矛盾,将之尽速激化起来。”
“婉儿。”
“在。”
“这次拍卖会之后,我估计,那些炼丹师都已经赶回各自的门派了吧？”
“是的,公子爷料事如神。”
“嗯,但是门派之中的其他人多半都没有回去,是不是？”
“这些人应该是留在此地,与京城中的世家交往,甚至,与皇室在来往,是么？”
“是,公子慧眼如炬。” “这并不是什么稀奇的事情,这帮家伙只要出来一次,不搞一票利益回去,他们是不会走的。
而这些世家,官府,皇族,便是提供给他们这些利益的合适对象。”
白衣公子脸上有些讥诮的意味,口气也有些淡淡的嘲讽,又道：“其实,这个天下真的很奇怪。
“而门派则认为世家都没有什么前途……却还在为了血脉延续苦苦挣扎挣扎几千年不过是挣扎一个传承……所以世家在门派眼中就是傻子。”
白衣青年眼神深邃,淡淡道：“所以,只要将这种并不牢靠的平衡打破,就会即时形成王朝兴衰更迭的局面……不管怎么样,这寒阳大陆的现有格局,注定不能再平衡下去。”
他说了这么多话,似乎有些疲累,身子靠在轮椅上,懒懒的的说道：“如何打破这种平衡……婉儿,你去做。”
婢子知道。” “嗯,你知道该怎么做么？”
“婢子以为,只需要将现在在京城之中的这些各大门派的重要人物……杀死那么一两个,制造出某种假象……就可以打破门派之间的平衡,然后再将世家引入浑水之中,皇族实力也会因此卷进来……彼时,无论结果如何,平衡都会被打破,因为漏洞已经出现了。”
“只是,唯有到了结果出现的时候,才能决定下一步怎么做。” 白衣青年满意的点点头：“你的战略布置不错,就是这个样子。
“乱局,首先就要从这里开始。
他说到这里,突然顿住,没有再说下去。
但婉儿已经是眼前一亮,道：“是,多谢公子点拨,婢子知道该怎么做了。”
“嗯,以后不要在我面前再称什么婢子,我听着难受。”
两女眼中同时闪过一丝喜悦,脸上掠过一层红晕,道：“婉儿（秀儿）遵命。”
“打破一个平衡,世间王朝更迭;自然在极短的时间里,他们又会形成一个新的平衡……”白衣青年目光悠然的看着天上白云往复,淡淡道：“风云,就是这么容易。”
另一边,叶笑在抓紧一切时间练功。
短时间看来,起码在表面上似乎是归于风平浪静了。
唯有一个地方却开了锅。
每个人都是愁容满面。
灵宝阁大老板竟然亲自来到了辰星城。
而万正豪来到这里的第一句话居然就是：“我那块天外幽冥……没拍出去吧？”
大老板这话是什么意思？
当初我们都不愿意拍卖这个东西,是您,规定我们哪里有大型的拍卖会就一定要尝试推销。 不管如何不惜代价一定要卖出去……因为这有损您的脸面。
如今我们刚刚把那烫手山芋卖掉了,您接着就来问。
这算什么意思？
关万山定了定神,小心翼翼的回答。
“拍出去了？” 大老板万正豪肥胖的身体一阵颤抖,脸色也“刷”的一声变得白了。 这一刻,居然有一种拉肚子的感觉。
跟在大老板身边的一个黑衣人突然上前一步,面无表情地问道。
这个人,之前从未在大老板跟前出现过。
大家看到都觉得有些陌生。
但他一说话,大老板顿时就哆嗦了一下。
这个人的身份,难道竟远远地在大老板之上？
那么此人是谁？
话音刚落,就看到大老板肥胖的身体一阵颤抖,一张白白胖胖的脸顿时变成了死灰色。
旁边那黑衣人皱皱眉,问道：“现在还能不能找到那个人？”
“能,一定能。” 关万山很有把握的说道：“因为拍卖之后,他没有把竞拍得来的钱全部提走,而是将其中一大部分寄存在了拍卖行就算他之后不再拿神丹来拍卖,但总会来拿走那笔钱。”
关万山淡淡一笑：“没有人会放弃这么大一笔钱的。 而他急需钱用,更加不会。”
万正豪和那黑衣人同时松了一口气,居然异口同声的展颜笑道：“那就好那就好。”
“既然这样,我们这段时间就先在辰星城住下吧。 什么时候收回了天外幽冥,什么时候再回去。”

Chapter 64
Her skin turned so exquisite after staying over for just one night…Even if that kind of ‘thing’ didn’t happen, other things must have definitely happened…Otherwise, how can a girl suddenly become so radiant?
She had never thought that she would actually be grounded, not even in her dreams.
And of course, she didn’t know that… it was purely because of that single sentence which she had said to show off.
She get to know about this… in the very distant future…
It was inside the bamboo forest enclosed by the mountains.
“Xiu-Er has made a reckless move this time. Please punish me.” Xiu-Er, who was dressed in white, lowered her head and stood in front of the man who was also dressed in white, and was sitting on a wheelchair.
The man in white sighed with his eyes half-closed and said, “Xiu-Er… Your actions have done a lot of damage to our plan this time… The Mu Clan has suffered greatly from this event.

“Xiu-Er, you take charge of instigating the problems between the three kingdoms, make the war start as soon as possible.”
“Wan-Er.”
“Yes, master.”

While all this was going on, on the other side of the capital, Ye Xiao was wasting no time in order to cultivate.
On the surface, it seemed that everything had been settled down and all the conflicts had reached a conclusion.
However, there was one place that was still enveloped in chaos.
People including Guan Wan-Shan were so worried that they almost wanted to hang themselves! Everyone wore an anxious expression.
The big boss of Ling-Bao Hall had actually come to the Chen-Xing City.
The first thing Wan Zheng-Hao said when he arrived in front of the salesroom was, “My Cosmic Hades… You didn’t sell it, right?”
[What does the big boss mean with that?
We didn’t even want to introduce it to the auction in the first place. It was you who demanded us to try to sell it out in every big auction. We had to sell it out no matter what price it cost… in case it humiliates you.
Now we just got this ‘hot potato’ sold, yet you came right away to ask such a question.
What does it mean?]
“It has been sold.” He composed himself and answered gingerly.
“Sold?” The big boss Wan Zheng-Hao’s body quivered a little and his face suddenly turned pale. At this moment, he felt like he was about to lose control of his bowels.
“To whom?” A man in black closely following the big boss suddenly stepped forward and asked indifferently.
This man had never accompanied the big boss before.
So people felt strange when they saw him.
But when he spoke, the big boss quivered a bit. Even his expression became terrified.
Was this guy in a much higher social position than the big boss?
Then who was this guy?
He had just finished his words when he saw the big boss’s fat body quivering. The big boss’s white fat face suddenly turned grey.
The man in black beside him frowned and asked, “Can we still find that guy now?”
“Yes. We absolutely can.” Guan Wan-Shan confidently answered, “Because, after the auction, he didn’t take all the money he had earned. He saved most of it in the salesroom… Even if he doesn’t come to sell his supreme dan anymore, he will definitely come to collect the money.”
Guan Wan-Shan smiled blandly, “Nobody will give up such a big amount of money. Besides, he is short of money at the moment, so he won’t give it up.”
Wan Zheng-Hao and the man in black sighed with relief at the same time. They laughed and spoke in a chorus, “That’s good. That’s good!”
“Well since it’s like this, I think we should live in Chen-Xing City for some time. We can leave whenever we get back the Cosmic Hades.” The man in black made a decision straight away.

Together they were called the three dominators of the Internal Academy.\nAll other internal students should look up to him.\nThis man was named Qiu Lin, ranked second in the Internal Academy and the 27,861st on Earth Board. As one of the Ten Prodigies of the Omen Ridge, he boasted great fame in the 36 commanderies of Omen Ridge.\nTwo years ago, in the war between Qiu Lin and the Leech King, a fourth-level savage beast, Qiu Lin killed his enemy, and fought with aquatic savage beasts for the next three days without a break. He killed thousands of them, which dyed the river red for hundreds of miles.\nThat war made him very well-known.\nStaring at Zhang Ruochen from afar, Qiu Lin assumed a disdainful expression, and he asked an internal student next to him, “Is that the prince from an inferior commandery who has flattered Commandery Princess Yanchen and junior sister apprentice Chen Xier?”\n“Yes elder brother, he is Zhang Ruochen.” Said Xun Guihai who stood behind Qiu Lin with a stony face.\nXun Guihai was a tip-top influential figure beyond the Academy, however in the Internal Academy he did not rank in the top hundred. So, in front of Qiu Lin, he was respectful.\nNow Xun Guihai had not fully developed his skill. But even when he grew up, he still would not be able to attain as high a degree as Qiu Lin.\nExcept Si Xingkong, no one in the Internal Academy dared disrespect Qiu Lin because of his great strength.\n“Wow! It’s elder brother Qiu Lin. Fancy seeing him at the Merit Tower.” Said a pretty female student.\n“Really, that’s him!

I’ve heard a lot about you.”\nWith that, Zhang Ruochen bypassed him, walking straight to the Merit Tower.\nOf course, Zhang Ruochen had heard Qiu Lin’s name before, because he ranked sixth among the Ten Prodigies of the Omen Ridge.\nHowever, he had planned to exchange his merits and go straight to Mount Saint Crossing. He had no time to talk with Qiu Lin, so he just left.\nBut Qiu Lin did not let Zhang Ruochen go so easily.

I don’t think you respect me.”\nZhang Ruochen stopped walking and asked, “Elder brother Qiu, you are so serious! How have I disrespected you?”\n“Oh, really?

The internal students maintained their own hierarchy.\nStrong as Qiu Lin, was the king, at the top of the internal students. All the other students should pay him a tribute of some of their practice resources for protection.\nThe cruel law of the jungle made Qiu Lin used to superiority. He expected all students to stand in awe of him.\nWhen a student showed no reverence for him, he became unhappy.\nJust like Zhang Ruochen.\nShooting a glance at Qiu Lin, Zhang Ruochen said, “We are all internal students and came to the School of the Martial Market for practicing Martial Arts. What are these redundant rules for?”\nSeveral of the internal students standing behind Qiu Lin burst into laughter, feeling that Zhang Ruochen was being a reckless fool.\n“The world would descend into chaos without laws and rules. You, the weak, should stand in awe and service to the power!”\nSuddenly Xun Guihai hauled an internal student of the Initial Stage of the Earth Realm from the throng, clasped his Meridians, and dragged him in front of Qiu Lin.\n“Do you think you should salute elder brother Qiu Lin?” Asked Xun Guihai darkly.\nThe student had entered the Internal Academy six months ago, so he knew the rules well. A mediocre student like him must pay respect to Qiu Lin. Because it was easy for Qiu Lin to kill him."

269.第269章
“明光半圣修炼的功法，虽然不如九天明帝经，可他对武道的理解却远比我强，参悟他留下的半圣圣意图，对我也有不小的帮助。”
随着张若尘对《日月星辰图》的参悟，体内的真气，不断融入骨头，使骨骼生出一层淡淡的星辰光辉。
肉身强度，不断提升。
明光半圣的武道，与张若尘现在修炼的武道有所不同，明光半圣更注重肉身体质的修炼，特别是胫骨的修炼。
一个武者，一旦选择了某一种功法，就很难再改修别的功法。
可是，就算两个修炼相同功法的武者，他们的武道也完全不同，有的人成就高，有的人成就低。
参悟半圣圣意图，就是去学习半圣的武道，从而在一定程度上改变自己的武道，突破功法的限制。
其中一些天资极高的武者，在参悟了多位半圣、圣者的武道之后，甚至能够创出自己的武道，独立的功法。
张若尘对自己的要求很高，自然不想被《九天明帝经》局限，也想参悟更多半圣、圣者的武道，争取以《九天明帝经》为基础，创出更加强大的武道。
“以我现在的武道修为，已经能够与一些修为较弱的天极境武者抗衡，但是能够使用的武技却不多。”
“是时候将龙象般若掌的第五掌‘象力九叠’修炼到大成，增加掌法上的攻击力。”
象力九叠，张若尘已经修炼到六叠，可以爆发出六倍的攻击力。
越往后，就越是难修炼。
仅是在时空晶石的内空间中修炼，已经很难再有进步。
所以，必须要去通圣山，借住重力修炼密室的特殊环境，帮助他修炼“象力九叠”。
重力修炼密室，可以形成十倍重力，甚至百倍重力的环境。
武道四境“黄、玄、地、天”，更加注重的就算肉身的锤炼。
肉身，是一切武道的基础！
在前往通圣山之前，张若尘打算先去一趟功勋塔，准备兑换功勋值。
张若尘刚刚来到功勋塔，就有很多人，将他认出来。
“他不就是最近声名鹊起的张若尘？ 据说，黑市七大年轻高手之一的毒蛛少主，就是死在他的手中。”
“不仅是毒蛛少主，还有两位黑市天极境高手，也被他杀死。”
他能杀死天极境的高手，岂不是说，他已经拥有进入《地榜》的实力，在内宫学府估计能够排进前五。”
“他才那么年轻，还不到二十岁，就拥有如此可怕的实力，估计将来就连大师兄也不是他的对手。”
“杀死了毒蛛少主和两位天极境黑市高手，也不知能够得到多少功勋值，至少三万点功勋值。”
即便如此，见到张若尘，他们依旧感觉到异常激动，有一种高山仰止的感觉。
那可是一位能够杀死武道神话的少年王者！
像张若尘这样的天骄，别说是在天魔岭，就算是放在那些半圣世家、圣者门阀，也算是年轻一代的风云人物。
就在这时，一个穿着银色长袍的男子，从功勋塔中走出。 他身高七尺，气质如冰，每一个神情都带着一股强者的威势。
四、五个内宫学员，就像是他的跟班一般，走在他的后面。
有资格穿银袍的内宫学员，一共只有三个，每一个都是《地榜》高手，堪称内宫学宫的三大霸主。
别的内宫学员，都要仰视他们。
这一个银袍男子，名叫裘林，内宫学府排名第二的学员，在《地榜》上排名第两万七千八百六十一位，同时，也是天魔十秀之一，在天魔岭三十六郡国拥有极高的名气。
两年前，裘林在通溟河与四阶蛮兽水蛭王一战，将水蛭王镇杀，随后又在通溟河与水族蛮兽连战三日，杀死上千蛮兽，将百里之内的河段全部染红。
正是那一战，使他名动天下。
裘林远远的盯了张若尘一眼，露出一丝不屑的神情，向身边的一个内宫学员问道：“他就是巴结烟尘郡主和陈曦儿师妹的那一个下等郡国的王子？”
荀归海站在裘林的身后，露出一丝冷色，道：“回禀裘师兄，他就是张若尘。”
荀归海在外院，虽然是一等一的风云人物，可是到了内宫学府却连前一百都排不进去，在裘林的面前，自然显得恭恭敬敬。
别说荀归海现在还没成长起来，就算今后他成长了起来，也未必能够达到裘林的高度。
是裘林师兄，他竟然也在功勋塔。”
一个颇有姿色的女学员激动的道。
“果然是裘林师兄，据说他前段时间，接了任务，要去对付景月郡国境内的一个魔教分舵，估计已经完成任务，回来兑换功勋值。”
裘林早就已经习惯那些内宫学员的尖叫声，嘴角露出一丝笑意。
在内宫学宫，他才是真正的王者，张若尘还太嫩了！
裘林走到张若尘的面前，丝毫都不掩饰自己的敌意，气势凌人的道：“张若尘，听说你杀死了毒蛛少主？”
张若尘看了裘林一眼，道：“请问你是？”
“裘林。” 裘林傲然的道。
张若尘道：“原来是裘师兄，久仰大名。”
说完，张若尘就绕开裘林，向功勋塔走去。
裘林在天魔十秀中排名第六，张若尘自然听过他的名字。
但是，张若尘还要兑换功勋值，赶去通圣山修炼，根本没时间和裘林寒暄，所以会回了一句话，就直接离开。
裘林却没打算那么轻易放张若尘离开，冷笑一声：“张师弟，裘某再怎么说也是武市学宫的二师兄，你未免也太不尊重我了吧？”
张若尘的眼神一凝，停下脚步，道：“裘师兄，你这话说得太严重了吧！ 我哪里有不尊重你？”
裘林道：“你尊重我？ 你见到我，有向我行礼吗？”
张若尘算是明白过来，裘林是想故意挑事。
只不过张若尘想不明白，自己在哪里得罪了他？
张若尘不喜欢惹事，可是事来了，也绝不怕事。
站在裘林身后的荀归海冷笑一声：“张若尘，你真以为击杀了毒蛛少主，就已经在年轻一代无敌，可以目中无人？”
另一个崇拜裘林的女学员也道：“在裘师兄的面前，居然都敢如此狂傲，真不知道他是哪里来的自信？”
我难道说得有错？ 你年少轻狂也就罢了，我能理解，毕竟你是烟尘郡主的未婚夫，有千水郡国做靠山，大家都不敢惹你。
荀归海露出一丝阴险的笑意，他觉得今天是一个好机会，既然裘林要找张若尘的麻烦，正好教一教张若尘该如何做人。
荀归海道：“裘师兄十年前就进入内宫学府，不仅是我们的师兄，更是我们的前辈。 你才刚刚进入内宫学府而已，只是一个新人，最起码也要行躬身礼吧？”
这个世界，以强者为尊，任何地方都会出现弱肉强食的现象。
只有强者才能被尊重，弱者只能被践踏。
强大如裘林，那就是内宫学员中的王者，站在最顶级的存在。
正是因为这种残酷的丛林法则，使裘林已经习惯了高高在上的感觉，别的那些学员见到他，自然要露出敬畏之心。
若是有人不敬畏他，他就会很不高兴。
比如，张若尘。
张若尘瞥了裘林一眼，道：“大家都是内宫学员，来到武市学宫只是为了修炼武道，何必要弄那么多的规矩？”
站在裘林身后的那几位内宫学员，全部都哈哈大笑起来，觉得张若尘就是愣头青。
世界岂不是要乱套？ 弱者就应该学会服从，就应该侍奉强者，见到强者就应该有敬畏之心。”
荀归海从人群中抓住一个地极境初期的内宫学员，扣住那一个内宫学员的经脉，拖到裘林的面前。
“你觉得该不该给裘林师兄行礼？”
那一个内宫学员进入内宫学府已经有半年时间，十分清楚内宫学府的规矩，像他这种在外宫学府都不算出众的学员，进入内宫学府更加只能仰望裘林那种级别的存在。

Chapter 269
Chapter 269: Qiu Lin, One of the Ten Prodigies of the Omen Ridge Translator: Transn Editor: Transn “Although the practicing exercises of the Brightness Half-Saint can’t compare to the Scripture of Emperor Ming’s Empyrean, his understanding about Martial Arts is deeper than mine. It’s good for me to consider the Half-Saint’s Sacred Glyph he left.”
During his meditation on the Painting of the Sun and the Moon , the Genuine Qi in his body continually blended into his bones and the splendor of the stars began to cast its glow on his bones.
His mortal body grew more robust.
The Martial Arts of the Brightness Half-Saint who had paid more attention to practicing his mortal body’s physical quality, especially his shinbones, was different from that of Zhang Ruochen.
Once a warrior chose a particular exercise, his decision was locked in.
Even if two warriors practiced with the same method, their Martial Arts would be totally different. One tended to achieve more than the other.
To some extent, to perceive the Half-Saint’s Sacred Glyph and learn Half-Saint’s Martial Arts was to change one’s own Martial Arts and break the limitation of exercise.
Some talented warriors could even create their own Martial Arts style with unique exercises after they had studied the Arts of many Half-Saints or Saints.
Weren’t Scripture of Emperor Ming’s Empyrean and Peacock Canon both written by predecessors? Zhang Ruochen put high requirements on himself, so he tried to learn more Martial Arts from the basis of Emperor Ming’s Empyrean to create stronger Martial Arts.
“With my current martial cultivation, I am able to contend with some weak warriors of the Heaven Realm, but my martial techniques are limited.”
“It is time to practice the fifth palm of the Dragon and Elephant Prajna Palm, ‘Nine Elephants Power’, to succeed in increasing the ferocity of my palm technique.”
Zhang Ruochen had practiced to the sixth fold of the Nine-folds of the Elephant Power, and now he could deliver an attack six times more powerful.
The higher he practiced, the harder it became.
It was difficult to make further progress only practicing in the internal space of the Time and Space Spinel.
So he had to go the Mount Saint Crossing to practice Nine-folds of the Elephant Power with the help of the Gravity Practicing Secret Room’s special environment.
In the Gravity Practicing Secret Room, he could develop his palm techniques in a tenfold, or even hundredfold, gravity environment, thus strengthening his body.
The Four Martial Arts Realms, Yellow, Black, Earth, and Heaven, laid emphasis on mortal body cultivation.
The mortal body was the basis of all Martial Arts!
On his way to the Mount Saint Crossing, Zhang Ruochen meant to go the Merit Tower first to exchange some of his merit.
When he arrived at the Merit Tower, many people recognized him.
“Is he the famous Zhang Ruochen? It is said that the Young Lord of Poisonous Spider, one of the Seven Young Masters of the Black Market, died at his hands.”
“Not only the Young Lord of Poisonous Spider, but he also killed two Heaven Realm masters in the Black Market.”
“What? He could kill masters of the Heaven Realm? Wouldn’t you say that he already has the power to enter the Earth Board and maybe rank in the top fifth in the Internal Academy?”
“He is so young, not yet 20 years old. Maybe even our elder brother won’t be his rival in the future because of his terrible strength.”
“How many merits did he gain after killing the Young Lord of Poisonous Spider and two Black Market Heaven Realm masters? Maybe 30,000 merits?” …
Only top geniuses could enter the Internal Academy, and so none of them were unskilled. Even so, they were all excited to see Zhang Ruochen and admire him.
He was a young king who could kill a martial arts legend!
A conqueror like Zhang Ruochen would be an influential figure of the youth in a Half-Saint or Saint family, let alone in the Omen Ridge.
Just then, a man in a silver robe walked out of the Merit Tower. He was two meters tall with a cool temperament, acting every inch the superior.
Four or five internal students walked behind him like his attendants.
Only three internal students had the right to wear a silver robe, and each was an Earth Board master. Together they were called the three dominators of the Internal Academy.
All other internal students should look up to him.
This man was named Qiu Lin, ranked second in the Internal Academy and the 27,861st on Earth Board. As one of the Ten Prodigies of the Omen Ridge, he boasted great fame in the 36 commanderies of Omen Ridge.
Two years ago, in the war between Qiu Lin and the Leech King, a fourth-level savage beast, Qiu Lin killed his enemy, and fought with aquatic savage beasts for the next three days without a break. He killed thousands of them, which dyed the river red for hundreds of miles.
That war made him very well-known.
Staring at Zhang Ruochen from afar, Qiu Lin assumed a disdainful expression, and he asked an internal student next to him, “Is that the prince from an inferior commandery who has flattered Commandery Princess Yanchen and junior sister apprentice Chen Xier?”
“Yes elder brother, he is Zhang Ruochen.” Said Xun Guihai who stood behind Qiu Lin with a stony face.
Xun Guihai was a tip-top influential figure beyond the Academy, however in the Internal Academy he did not rank in the top hundred. So, in front of Qiu Lin, he was respectful.
Now Xun Guihai had not fully developed his skill. But even when he grew up, he still would not be able to attain as high a degree as Qiu Lin.
Except Si Xingkong, no one in the Internal Academy dared disrespect Qiu Lin because of his great strength.
“Wow! It’s elder brother Qiu Lin. Fancy seeing him at the Merit Tower.” Said a pretty female student.
“Really, that’s him! They said some time ago he accepted the task of handling a heresy branch gang in Moon Commandery. Maybe now he has finished it and come back to exchange some merits.” …
… Qiu Lin had been used to screams from these internal students and he smiled slightly.
In the Internal Academy, it was he who was the real king, and Zhang Ruochen was far beneath him.
Walking in front of Zhang Ruochen, Qiu Lin showed great hostility to him and said superciliously, “They said you killed the Young Lord of Poisonous Spider. Did you?”
Zhang Ruochen stared at Qiu Lin and replied, “Could you please tell me who are you?”
“I am Qiu Lin.” He said arrogantly.
Zhang Ruochen said, “It’s elder brother Qiu! I’ve heard a lot about you.”
With that, Zhang Ruochen bypassed him, walking straight to the Merit Tower.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen had heard Qiu Lin’s name before, because he ranked sixth among the Ten Prodigies of the Omen Ridge.
However, he had planned to exchange his merits and go straight to Mount Saint Crossing. He had no time to talk with Qiu Lin, so he just left.
But Qiu Lin did not let Zhang Ruochen go so easily. He sneered and called, “Junior fellow apprentice Zhang, I’m the second brother of the School of the Martial Market. I don’t think you respect me.”
Zhang Ruochen stopped walking and asked, “Elder brother Qiu, you are so serious! How have I disrespected you?”
“Oh, really? Did you salute me when you met me?” Said Qiu Lin.
Now Zhang Ruochen saw clearly that Qiu Lin was looking for trouble deliberately.
But Zhang Ruochen did not see where he had offended him.
Though he preferred not to stir up trouble, he was never afraid when it came to him.
Xun Guihai ,who stood behind Qiu Lin, sneered. “Zhang Ruochen, don’t be so proud, even if you have killed the Young Lord of Poisonous Spider. Don’t dream you are matchless!”
Another female student who admired Qiu Lin asked, “Why are you so confident and arrogant in front of elder brother Qiu?” Zhang Ruochen cast a sharp eye on all of them.
Xun Guihai said to Zhang Ruochen without fear, “Why do you stare at us? Am I wrong? I can understand your youthful indiscretion. After all you are Commandery Princess Yanchen’s fiance with Qianshui Commandery’s backing. But I can’t stand your discourtesy to elder brother Qiu!”
His fury replaced by amusement, Zhang Ruochen said, “Xun Guihai, what should I do to show my politeness?” Xun Guihai smiled insidiously. He felt that today he could teach Zhang Ruochen a lesson, since Qiu Lin had found trouble with Zhang Ruochen.
“Ten years ago, elder brother Qiu entered the Internal Academy. Not only is he our elder brother, but he is also our predecessor. You just entered the Internal Academy as a freshman. Don’t you think you should bow to elder brother Qiu?”
The law of the jungle also applied in this world. Everybody played up to people of power and influence.
The weak would be trodden on. The internal students maintained their own hierarchy.
Strong as Qiu Lin, was the king, at the top of the internal students. All the other students should pay him a tribute of some of their practice resources for protection.
The cruel law of the jungle made Qiu Lin used to superiority. He expected all students to stand in awe of him.
When a student showed no reverence for him, he became unhappy.
Just like Zhang Ruochen.
Shooting a glance at Qiu Lin, Zhang Ruochen said, “We are all internal students and came to the School of the Martial Market for practicing Martial Arts. What are these redundant rules for?”
Several of the internal students standing behind Qiu Lin burst into laughter, feeling that Zhang Ruochen was being a reckless fool.
“The world would descend into chaos without laws and rules. You, the weak, should stand in awe and service to the power!”
Suddenly Xun Guihai hauled an internal student of the Initial Stage of the Earth Realm from the throng, clasped his Meridians, and dragged him in front of Qiu Lin.
“Do you think you should salute elder brother Qiu Lin?” Asked Xun Guihai darkly.
The student had entered the Internal Academy six months ago, so he knew the rules well. A mediocre student like him must pay respect to Qiu Lin. Because it was easy for Qiu Lin to kill him.

Last time, I was just careless.\nWith a clang, Tang Hong took out his sword and pounced towards Tang Huan.\n\"Bring it on!\"\nTang Huan laughed and took out a sword from the weapon rack.\nThe moment the sword appeared in his hands, Tang Huan's entire aura changed greatly, like a dragon that was hiding in the abyss, as if it could cause monstrous waves at any time.\nTang Hong's hair was standing on end and his expression was unsettled.\nEven though he didn't want to admit it, the tragedy that day had already left a shadow on him.

He looked proud, but his eyes revealed a sense of ridicule and disdain.\nEven though he was not considered a genius among the young generation of the Tang Family, he still far surpassed an ordinary Disciples of the family. Although he had seen Tang Huan many times in the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, he could not be bothered to bully a person who could not even cultivate True Qi. He also could not stand Tang Hong and the others' actions of finding trouble with him.\nBut this time, he couldn't not stand up for Tang Hong. No matter how muddled he was, Tang Hong was still his little brother.\n\"I am a bastard child, so what does Tang Tianren, who is a bastard child to me, count as?\"\nHis right hand, which was holding onto the sword hilt, trembled slightly. Deep in his memory, what the youth hated the most was the word \"bastard\" when he heard it. \"Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!\"\n\"You bastard, how dare you be so outrageous.\"\nTang Chao's eyes grew cold, and his voice grew colder. \"Originally, I only interrupted your hand and leg, punishing you a bit.

His right foot stomped on the ground as he leapt upwards.\nAt this moment, Tang Chao was like a fierce tiger that had just gotten out of its cage.

This \"Hu Yue Fist\" was also a low level battle skill of the Tang Clan. Its attack was like a fierce tiger and its aura was intimidating. They all knew that Tang Chao had cultivated this kind of fist technique to a level of perfection.\nNow that he had made a move, it was indeed the case.\nTang Huan was the first to bear the brunt of the impact. Immediately, he felt a strong wind howling down, as if a huge boulder had been dropped from the sky.\n\"Roaming Dragon Goes to Sea!\"\nAlthough it had only been a little while since he had fought with Tang Hong and the rest, Tang Huan had totally changed.

With the flow of Qi, a dense and sharp intent surged out of the sword, as though it was about to tear it apart his abdomen.\nTang Chao did not expect Tang Huan's sword technique to be so sharp and fierce. His face darkened slightly as he suddenly turned his fist into a claw and swept it towards the sword blade with lightning speed.\n\"Bam!\"\nA dull sound of impact rang out.\nThe moment the hand claw and the sword made contact, the two sets of True Qi fiercely clashed, and the long sword was actually unable to endure it any longer, and immediately broke apart, leaving only the hilt of the sword in Tang Huan's hand, while the sword was slapped away by Tang Chao, and nailed onto a pillar not too far away.\n\"It broke?\"\nTang Huan was slightly startled, but he couldn't help but laugh bitterly in his heart. He knew that the youth's weapon forging skills were poor, but he did not expect the longsword he forged would be so weak that it couldn't even withstand a single blow. No wonder it was only worth a gold coin.\nHe had originally thought that the price would be too low, but now he realized that selling this kind of weapon for one gold coin was already a high price.\n\"Haha, second brother is truly amazing.\"\n\"This dog dares to fight with Brother Chao?! How reckless!\"\n\"Brother Chao's' Hu Yue Fist 'is indeed practiced to the maximum! However, the weapon forged by this fellow is truly lame. To think that it would be broken in an instant. I'm going to die from laughter here. \"\nTang Huan was shocked, but Tang Hong, Tang Jiang and Tang Jun Jie were all smiles. The moment Tang Chao broke the sword with his claws, both of his feet landed on the ground, but he did not slow down at all, his body once again leaped up, and pounced towards Tang Huan like a fierce tiger.\n\"Lie down!\"\nTang Chao laughed sinisterly between his brows as he punched out with his right fist once again. With the force of thunder and with tricky angles, his fist struck towards Tang Huan's chest like a heavy hammer.\nTang Huan suddenly woke up from his stupor and could no longer hold back from complaining about the youth who had forged the longsword."

第9章
唐欢一惊，大步如飞地冲到前面铁匠铺，就发现铺子大门已破碎倒地，一个十七八岁的黑衣少年走了进来，腰挂长剑，身躯高大挺拔。
在他身边，还有三个少年，赫然是唐鸿、唐江和唐俊杰，气势汹汹。
“唐超？”
唐欢先是眉头微皱，眼中多出了些许凝重之色。
这唐超是唐鸿的二哥，只比其大一岁，但天资却是胜过他不少，据说前段时间已打通了第六条经脉，晋升为二阶武徒，而且，唐超修炼向来勤奋，他的实力绝非唐鸿这样的纨绔子弟可比。
可即便如此，唐欢心中也是毫无畏惧。
转念间，唐欢瞥向唐鸿三人，脸上浮起嘲弄的笑意：“打了小的来了大的？ 唐鸿，上次滋味怎样，是不是还想要再尝尝？”
说着，唐欢便是快步向前，作势要出手。
唐鸿、唐江和唐俊杰三人面色一变，几乎是下意识地向后退去。
“哼！”
那个叫唐超的黑衣少年见状，忍不住沉着脸哼了一声。
-----------------------唐鸿恼羞成怒地咆哮起来：“唐欢，你别嚣张，上次老子只是一时大意，这一次，老子会让你知道惹怒我的后果！”
锵的一声，唐鸿抽出长剑，就要向唐欢扑去。
“来吧！”
唐欢哈哈一笑，随手就从旁边的武器架上抽了一把剑下来。
剑一入手，唐欢整个人的气势顿时为之大变，就像是潜藏在深渊之中的一条龙，似乎随时都可能掀起滔天巨浪。
唐鸿心中发毛，面色阴晴不定，有些骑虎难下。
尽管他口中怎么也不愿意承认，可当日的惨状已是给他留下了阴影，在面对唐欢时，心底不自禁地生出了惧意。
“小鸿，退下！” 就在这时，唐超突然上前一步，低喝一声。
“是，二哥。”
唐鸿狠狠地瞪了唐欢一眼，脸上一副很不情愿的样子，可手上长剑却飞快地插回腰间剑鞘，一副如释重负的模样。
“唐欢，我这个弟弟虽然有些不太成器，但还轮不到你这么个野种来教训！”
唐超盯着唐欢，口中冷喝出声，神色傲然，眼眸中毫不掩饰地流露出一抹讥嘲和轻蔑之色。
他在唐家年轻一辈中算不得什么天才，却也远超一般的家族子弟。 平时虽在怒浪城中见过唐欢多次，却不屑于欺侮这么一个连真气都修炼不出来的人，对唐鸿等人有事没事找唐欢麻烦的举动也很看不上眼。
可这次，他却不能不为唐鸿出头，唐鸿再怎么烂泥扶不上墙，也是他亲弟弟。
“我是野种，不知道做为野种他爹的唐天仁又算个什么东西？”
听到唐超这话，唐欢几乎心底不可遏制地冲出一股怒意，紧攥着剑柄的右手微微发颤，记忆深处，少年最痛恨的便是听到“野种”这两个字眼，源自于他的那股强烈的愤怒，让唐欢脸色一下就阴沉了下来。
“你这野种，竟敢如此大逆不道。”
唐超眼神一寒，语气中多出了一丝残酷森冷之意，“本来，我只打断你一手一脚，算是对你小小地惩戒一番，可现在看来，只断你一手一脚，实在是太便宜你了。 也罢，我今天就替大伯好好地教训你一番，断你双手双脚，让你今后长点记性，知道什么话该说，什么话不该说！”
“大言不惭！”
唐欢怒极而笑，清越的颤鸣声中，手中长剑如龙，缓缓地刺了出去，速度不快，却自有一股杀意蕴含其中。
唐超嘴角微撇，右脚便狠一蹬地，身躯纵跃而起。
此刻的唐超就像是一头挣脱囚笼的猛虎，不仅速度迅疾，而且气势逼人，身躯跃至最高处的刹那，他的气势仿佛也攀升到了顶点，而后一拳轰出，居高临下地砸向唐欢脑袋，竟是势若雷霆。
“呼！” 拳头过处，竟起激起细微的风啸之声。
“虎跃拳！”
后面的唐鸿、唐江和唐俊杰三人见状，都是眼睛一亮。 这“虎跃拳”也是唐家的一种低阶战技，攻如猛虎，气势迫人。 他们都知道，唐超已将这种拳法类的战技修炼到了炉火纯青的地步。
现在看其出手之势，果然如此。
唐欢首当其冲，立刻就感觉劲风呼啸而下，似有一颗巨石轰隆隆地从高空砸落下来，令人心神震动。 不愧是二阶武徒！
“游龙出海！”
虽距与唐鸿等人交手才这么点时间，可唐欢却已有了脱胎换骨的变化，此刻心头极为冷静，心中暗哼，剑势陡然一变，已是由第一式转为第三式，剑尖微颤，竟是以迅雷不及掩耳之势撩向唐超小腹，真气流转之下，一股浓厚的锋锐之意从剑尖喷吐而出，似要将其腹部都撕裂开来。
唐超似没想到唐欢剑法如此凌厉，面色微沉，蓦地化拳为爪，闪电般地朝那剑身拍扫而去。
“砰！”
沉闷的撞击声随即响起。
手爪与剑身碰触的瞬间，两股真气激烈碰撞，那长剑竟是承受不住，铿然断裂开来，瞬即，唐欢手中长剑便只剩下一截剑柄，而剑身则是被唐超拍飞了出去，闪电般地钉在了不远处的柱子上。
“断了？”
唐欢微微一怔，心中不由自主地苦笑起来，他早就知道那少年锻造武器的水平很差，可还是没想到，他锻造的长剑居然这般不堪一击，竟连二阶武徒的攻击都承受不住，怪不得一件只值一个金币。
原本他还觉得，这价钱未免太低了，可现在他才发现，这样的武器能卖出一个金币，已经是高价了。
“哈哈，二哥真是厉害。”
“这狗东西，竟敢和超哥动手，简直就是不知死活！”
“超哥的‘虎跃拳’的确是练到家！ 不过，这家伙锻造的武器也真是差劲，居然一下就断了，笑死我了。”
唐欢惊愣失神，唐鸿、唐江和唐俊杰三人却是笑逐颜开，而唐超一爪拍断长剑的刹那，双脚便已落地，可他几乎是没有丝毫的停顿，身躯便再次腾跃而起，如同下山猛虎，凶神恶煞般地扑向唐欢。
“给我躺下！”
唐超眉宇间闪过狞恶的笑意，右拳再次击出，势若奔雷，角度刁钻，便如一柄重锤，敲向唐欢胸膛。
唐欢蓦然惊醒，也顾不得再埋怨锻造长剑的少年，仓促之下，只能直接一拳迎去。

Chapter 9
Tang Huan was shocked, he rushed to the front of the smithy, only to find the door of the shop had shattered and fallen to the ground. A seventeen to eighteen year old black-robed youth walked in, a sword hung by his waist, his body tall and straight.
Beside him were three other youths, who were impressively Tang Hong, Tang Jiang and Tang Junjie, aggressively.
"Tang Chao?"
Tang Huan frowned at first, but there was an extra look of seriousness in his eyes.
He was only one year older than Tang Chao, but his talent was much better than his. It was said that he had already opened up the sixth meridian a a while ago and advanced to the second stage of Martial Disciples. Furthermore, Tang Chao had always been hardworking in cultivation, so his strength was far beyond a playboy like Tang Hong.
But even so, Tang Huan was not afraid in the slightest.
In a blink of an eye, Tang Huan shot a glance at Tang Hong and the other two as a mocking smile surfaced on his face. Tang Hong, how did it feel last time?
With that, Tang Huan stepped forward quickly, ready to make his move.
Tang Hong, Tang Jiang and Tang Junjie's expressions changed as they subconsciously retreated.
"Humph!"
Seeing this, the youth in black called Tang Chao couldn't help but let out a snort.
Tang Hong and the other two came to their senses, immediately stopping in their tracks. Their faces immediately flushed red and felt like they were on fire. Tang Hong roared out in anger: "Tang Huan, don't be arrogant. Last time, I was just careless.
With a clang, Tang Hong took out his sword and pounced towards Tang Huan.
"Bring it on!"
Tang Huan laughed and took out a sword from the weapon rack.
The moment the sword appeared in his hands, Tang Huan's entire aura changed greatly, like a dragon that was hiding in the abyss, as if it could cause monstrous waves at any time.
Tang Hong's hair was standing on end and his expression was unsettled.
Even though he didn't want to admit it, the tragedy that day had already left a shadow on him. Facing Tang Huan, the bottom of his heart couldn't help but feel fear.
"Little Hong, step down!" At this point, Tang Chao took a step forward and growled.
"Yes, second brother."
Tang Hong glared at Tang Huan fiercely, he looked extremely unwilling, but the sword in his hand was quickly sheathed back into the sheath, as though he had been relieved of a heavy burden.
"Tang Huan, although this little brother of mine is not that good, it's not up to a bastard like you to teach him a lesson!"
Tang Chao stared at Tang Huan as he shouted coldly. He looked proud, but his eyes revealed a sense of ridicule and disdain.
Even though he was not considered a genius among the young generation of the Tang Family, he still far surpassed an ordinary Disciples of the family. Although he had seen Tang Huan many times in the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, he could not be bothered to bully a person who could not even cultivate True Qi. He also could not stand Tang Hong and the others' actions of finding trouble with him.
But this time, he couldn't not stand up for Tang Hong. No matter how muddled he was, Tang Hong was still his little brother.
"I am a bastard child, so what does Tang Tianren, who is a bastard child to me, count as?"
His right hand, which was holding onto the sword hilt, trembled slightly. Deep in his memory, what the youth hated the most was the word "bastard" when he heard it. "Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!"
"You bastard, how dare you be so outrageous."
Tang Chao's eyes grew cold, and his voice grew colder. "Originally, I only interrupted your hand and leg, punishing you a bit. But now, I think it's too easy for you to have only one hand and one foot." Forget it, today I will teach you a good lesson on behalf of uncle. I will break both your arms and legs, so that you will have a good memory and know what to say, and what not to say! "
"Boasting shamelessly!"
Tang Huan laughed out of anger, in the midst of his clear trembling cry, the sword in his hand became like a dragon, and he slowly thrusted out. His speed was not fast, but there was a hint of killing intent contained within it.
The corners of Tang Chao's lips curled up in a smile. His right foot stomped on the ground as he leapt upwards.
At this moment, Tang Chao was like a fierce tiger that had just gotten out of its cage. Not only was he extremely fast, his aura was extremely imposing, and the moment his body reached the highest point, his aura seemed to have climbed to the peak. Then, he punched out with his fist towards Tang Huan's head.
"Hu!" Wherever the fist passed by, a slight whistling sound was heard.
"Hu Yue Fist!"
Tang Hong, Tang Jiang and Tang Junjie's eyes lit up when they saw this. This "Hu Yue Fist" was also a low level battle skill of the Tang Clan. Its attack was like a fierce tiger and its aura was intimidating. They all knew that Tang Chao had cultivated this kind of fist technique to a level of perfection.
Now that he had made a move, it was indeed the case.
Tang Huan was the first to bear the brunt of the impact. Immediately, he felt a strong wind howling down, as if a huge boulder had been dropped from the sky.
"Roaming Dragon Goes to Sea!"
Although it had only been a little while since he had fought with Tang Hong and the rest, Tang Huan had totally changed. He was extremely calm in his heart, and snorted in his heart, then suddenly changed the direction of the sword, and from the first form to the third, the tip of the sword trembled, and actually swept towards Tang Chao's lower abdomen with a lightning speed. With the flow of Qi, a dense and sharp intent surged out of the sword, as though it was about to tear it apart his abdomen.
Tang Chao did not expect Tang Huan's sword technique to be so sharp and fierce. His face darkened slightly as he suddenly turned his fist into a claw and swept it towards the sword blade with lightning speed.
"Bam!"
A dull sound of impact rang out.
The moment the hand claw and the sword made contact, the two sets of True Qi fiercely clashed, and the long sword was actually unable to endure it any longer, and immediately broke apart, leaving only the hilt of the sword in Tang Huan's hand, while the sword was slapped away by Tang Chao, and nailed onto a pillar not too far away.
"It broke?"
Tang Huan was slightly startled, but he couldn't help but laugh bitterly in his heart. He knew that the youth's weapon forging skills were poor, but he did not expect the longsword he forged would be so weak that it couldn't even withstand a single blow. No wonder it was only worth a gold coin.
He had originally thought that the price would be too low, but now he realized that selling this kind of weapon for one gold coin was already a high price.
"Haha, second brother is truly amazing."
"This dog dares to fight with Brother Chao?! How reckless!"
"Brother Chao's' Hu Yue Fist 'is indeed practiced to the maximum! However, the weapon forged by this fellow is truly lame. To think that it would be broken in an instant. I'm going to die from laughter here. "
Tang Huan was shocked, but Tang Hong, Tang Jiang and Tang Jun Jie were all smiles. The moment Tang Chao broke the sword with his claws, both of his feet landed on the ground, but he did not slow down at all, his body once again leaped up, and pounced towards Tang Huan like a fierce tiger.
"Lie down!"
Tang Chao laughed sinisterly between his brows as he punched out with his right fist once again. With the force of thunder and with tricky angles, his fist struck towards Tang Huan's chest like a heavy hammer.
Tang Huan suddenly woke up from his stupor and could no longer hold back from complaining about the youth who had forged the longsword.

"value": "“Little Demon, accept your death!” Immediately enraged, the person inside the ancient coffin summoned a treasure.\n“Boom!” At this moment, the heaven and earth turned pale as the celestials plummeted. A myriad of dao were screaming as the heaven’s will retreated! A treasure flew out, causing numerous people to kneel on the ground.\nThunders cracked down in the air, but Ancient Sky City’s countless universal laws protected the city with the lingering fear that this invincible treasure would create a crater in this area.\n“Immortal Emperor Life Treasure!” A pale person emphatically screamed.\nThe moment this treasure appeared, endless rolling emperor’s power and immortal intent surged. Not only Ancient Sky City, but countless characters in the Grand Middle Territory felt this vast torrential power.\n“Who is using an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure!?” At this moment, countless eyes were looking towards Ancient Sky City’s direction!\nIn the blink of an eye, the power of the Grand Dao in this world was sucked out as the essence of the heaven and earth all supported this Immortal Emperor’s Life Treasure!\nThe Immortal Emperor Life Treasure was just like the arrival of an Immortal Emperor. It was not something that an Emperor’s Possession or an Emperor’s Decree could compare with!\n“It is over…” At this point, the group of Chi Yun turned so pale that they were as white as sheets of paper. They would definitely become annihilated once this Life Treasure struck down. Even Niu Fen’s expression greatly sank as he was in a daze.\n“Immortal Emperor Life Treasure.” At this moment, Li Qiye, standing on top of the Tetra-War Bronze Chariot, narrowed his eyes.\n“Bang!” A loud explosion directly pounded on Ancient Sky City. In this very second, Li Qiye did not take action, and neither did Niu Fen. Suddenly, in a corner of Ancient Sky City, there was a withered hand reaching out. This hand came from above, encompassing even the soaring Immortal Emperor Life Treasure.\n“Bang–bang–bang!” Countless clear sounds resounded as all of Ancient Sky City shook like it was the end of the world. Who knew how many people lost their minds from fear inside the city.\nAs the hand slowly pushed down, both the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure and the ancient coffin were both completely suppressed. Inside the Heavenly Grotto of the Ancient Kingdom, ancient chambers and jade pavilions collapsed one after another as the earth itself was sinking.\n“Bang!” Finally, after a deafening explosion, everyone witnessed a shocking scene. The ancient coffin and the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure were pressed into the ground — below the mud — along with the collapsing buildings. In a flash, this large crater was completely buried.\nEveryone froze with their mouths wide open; they were unable to close them for a long time!\n“Noisy!” After burying the ancient coffin and the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure, the hand disappeared as a voice slowly descended from the sky!\nAfter hearing this voice, Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao were stunned as their minds quaked! It was because they had heard of this voice before… The old ghost! The voice of the old ghost from the small shop!\nOnly they knew — at this time — that the old ghost was the one who took action! With just one action, he shocked everyone. With just one hand, he easily suppressed an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure underground. Even though he couldn’t destroy the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure, but to directly trap it underground, one could only imagine how terrifying this old ghost was.\nAt this moment, they finally understood the old ghost’s disastrous power and why their young noble wanted the old ghost to owe him a favor!\nThey then stared at their young noble, but Li Qiye was still calmly standing on top of the Tetra-War Bronze Chariot as if everything was within his expectations!\nThe spectators, with their mouths open, still haven’t closed them for their souls have not yet returned! This was an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure ah, yet it was pressured by a person with just his bare hand. This, this was too illogical.\nAfter a while, the confused crowd finally came back and rubbed their eyes. After seeing the collapsed buildings of the Ancient Kingdom, they knew that this was not a dream!\n“Who…” It took a long time before people began to think about the question revolving in their minds. Enlightened Beings, Ancient Saints, and even the hidden undying old men who came into being didn’t dare to make a single noise. It was as if they were afraid of disturbing the unparalleled giant sleeping in Ancient Sky City!\nOne hand dominating over an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure! One had to know that this Emperor’s weapon was unleashed by one of the Ancient Kingdom’s Nine Ancestors. This was an extremely terrifying blow. If it was unleashed on top of the Grand Middle Territory, it would be able to sink a massive amount of land!\nHowever, this Immortal Emperor Life Treasure attack that was capable of killing the gods and decapitating the devils was subdued into the ground by one hand, and the ancestor’s fate inside the coffin was unknown as well!\nAt this time, countless people were only glancing at each other and didn’t dare to discuss.\nThis event might just be the most tranquil moment of Ancient Sky City within the last ten thousand years. One could even hear the sound of a needle dropping within this huge city.\nThe Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom was extremely unlucky. Its Immortal Emperor Life Treasure woke up a sleeping unparalleled giant, so its treasure and ancestor were both pressed into the ground!\n“An Immortal Emperor Life Treasure does not mean invincibility. Even an Immortal Emperor True Treasure is not necessarily invincible.” In the end, Li Qiye, standing on top of the bronze chariot, lazily spoke.\nLi Qiye being the first to talk again finally relieved everyone. They began to breathe again while remaining extremely cautious. No matter who it was, they were all afraid of waking the sleeping giant.\nAt this time, Li Qiye controlled the bronze chariot and slowly entered the Ancient Kingdom’s mansion. The group of Chi Yun also calmed down and quickly followed Li Qiye.\nThe mansion inside the Ancient Kingdom’s Heavenly Grotto was much larger than it seemed from the outside. This was a naturally formed Heavenly Grotto. There were not only ancient chambers and heavenly pavilions everywhere, but there were also curving mountain ranges.\nThere were still many Ancient Kingdom disciples, including Royal Nobles, Enlightened Beings, and even Ancient Saints, presiding inside!\nThis was the power of a sect with two emperors. Compared to great sects and countries, it was hard for them to have Ancient Saints during the Difficult Dao Era, but the Ancient Kingdom was able to send Ancient Saints out to protect the field!\nAlthough there were powerful Enlightened Beings and Ancient Saints in the grotto, but at this time, they could only watch Li Qiye bring the others inside. Even Ancient Saints at the level of Grand Saint would not easily take action!\nThe hand from earlier that suppressed their ancestor and Immortal Emperor Life Treasure had completely shattered their morale. Even the powerful Ancient Saints had dread and fear in their minds as they trembled and didn’t dare to make any loud noises, afraid of waking up the unparalleled giant one more time!\nLi Qiye entered this grotto as if he was taking a stroll in his own courtyard — completely relaxed and comfortable.\nAt this juncture, the hatred of many Royal Nobles of the Ancient Kingdom towards Li Qiye permeated deep in their bones, but they didn’t dare to do anything!\nEventually, an old man quickly welcomed Li Qiye as he bowed down while clasping his fists together and busily said: “This person must be Young Noble Li. This matter only began with a few people of the younger generation who didn’t know any better, this was why we have this kind of conflict.”\n“Younger generation not knowing any better?” From arrogance to respect, seeing the sudden change in the Ancient Kingdom’s attitude caused Li Qiye to burst out in laughter as he said: “Then the old man lying in that coffin is also a junior of your Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom?”\nLi Qiye’s words immediately changed this old man’s expression, but he managed to settle down his anger. Today, the situation was disadvantageous for their Ancient Kingdom. Their ancestor’s fate was still unknown after being pressed underground. At this second, even if they couldn’t endure this humiliation any longer, they still had to bite their teeth and swallow this animosity!\n“This time, my Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom has offended…” The old man was an experienced character and had witnessed countless waves and winds. In this key moment, he took a deep breath and bowed to say: “This time, my Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom is willing to pay for all of the damages. As long as Young Noble Li says the word, we will absolutely agree!”\nThe old man truly was a character capable of accomplishing great tasks with his swift decisiveness. Even though this was hard to swallow, he still bit his teeth to accept that it was their fault. To them, at this time, nothing was more important than digging out their ancestor, so the old man had no other choice but to acquiesce!\n“Young Noble, even while killing, we should still spare someone a living path…” Seeing an original elder of the Ancient Kingdom accept their defeat, Chi Yun couldn’t help but gently speak. However, only half of the sentence came out; it was not his place to say more. In this situation, Li Qiye had the final say.\nLi Qiye glanced at Chi Yun without saying anything!\nLi Qiye understood that the Nine Saint Demon Gate did not want to wage war against the Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom. They had not yet appeased the War God Temple. Without its absolute support, the Nine Saint Demon Gate truly did not have the courage to wage war against the Ancient Kingdom!\n“Against my enemies, I had always behead all of them!” Li Qiye then stared at the Ancient Kingdom’s old man.\nLi Qiye’s declaration shocked the old man. Their Ancient Kingdom had never been afraid of trouble, but under the circumstances today, they couldn’t afford not to bend down unless they truly wanted to fight desperately till the end! However, it was still unknown whether their ancestor buried underground was dead or alive, and nothing was more important than taking him out!\n“However, since the Nine Saint Demon Gate — as the victim — is willing to let this matter go, it is not my place to say otherwise.” Li Qiye subtly glanced at Chi Yun.\nIt could be said that Li Qiye was giving Chi Yun some face, as well as the Nine Saint Demon Gate. This was the outcome of Chi Yun and the gate truly supporting him!\nChi Yun was not foolish, and he knew that Li Qiye was giving him some consideration, so he busily bowed his head."

“小鬼，受死！” 古棺之人顿时大怒，一宝祭出。
“轰——”就在这瞬间，天地失色，星辰陨落，万道哀鸣，天命隐退！ 一宝飞出，顿时让无数的人跪倒在地上。
一阵阵的轰鸣之声响起，天古城冲起了无数的法则，庇护着天古城，怕被这一件无敌的宝物打沉整个天古城。
“仙帝宝器！” 有人脸色苍白，尖叫道。
此宝一祭出，帝蕴仙威滔滔不尽，莫说是天古城，就是中大域的无数人都感受到了这滔滔不尽的帝蕴仙威！
“是谁动用了仙帝宝器！” 在这一刻，不知道多少目光望向天古城的方向！
在这瞬间，天地大道的力量宛如被抽离一样，宛如整个中大域的天地精气都承托着这一件仙帝宝器一样！
仙帝宝器一出，帝蕴仙威无穷，宛如是一位仙帝临世一样。 仙帝宝器，这不是帝物、帝诏之类的东西所能相比的！
“完了——”此时赤云他们脸色煞白，仙帝宝器打下，他们绝对是灰飞烟灭，连牛奋都脸色大变，呆了一下。
“仙帝宝器——”就在这瞬间，站在四战铜车上的李七夜双眼一眯。
“砰——”一声巨响冲击着整个天古城，就在这一刻，李七夜没有出手，牛奋也没有出手，突然之间，在天古城的一角，一只干枯的大手探了出来，大手覆盖而下，冲起的仙帝宝器都被压在了大手之下。
“轰——轰——轰——”一阵阵巨响轰鸣不止，整个天古城摇晃，宛如是世间末日来临一样，天古城内不知道多少人被吓得魂飞魄散。
大手慢慢地压下，仙帝宝器也好，古棺也罢，此时完全被镇压下去，青玄古国洞天之内，一座座的古殿玉楼崩塌，大地被压得下沉。
“轰——”最终，一声巨响，无数人看到震撼无比的一幕，古棺连同仙帝宝器都被压入了大地之中，沉了入泥土之中，随着四周的无数古殿神楼轰然倒塌，眨眼之间，这个巨坑一下子被埋掉了。
所有人都呆住了，不知道多少人嘴巴张得大大的，久久无法合拢！
把仙帝宝器、古棺都压入了地下之后，大手消失，天空上垂落一个慢吞吞的声音！
一听到这个声音，李霜颜与陈宝娇为之震撼，心神剧震！ 只为她们听过这个声音——老鬼！
这个时候，只有她们知道出手的是什么人，老鬼出手了！ 一出手，就震撼着所有人，一只手，轻易地把仙帝宝器压入了地下，虽然未能毁掉仙帝宝器，直接把它压入地下，这可想而知老鬼是何等的可怕。
在这一刻，李霜颜与陈宝娇真正明白老鬼的可怕，在这个时候，她们才真正地领悟她们公子为什么要老鬼的一个人情了！
此时，李霜颜与陈宝娇都不由望向她们的公子，然而，李七夜风轻云淡地站在四战铜车之上，宛如一切都在意料之中！
此时，所有人都吓得嘴巴张得大大的，久久合拢不上，所有人都回不过神来！ 这个是仙帝宝器呀，竟然被人赤手空拳压入了地下，这，这，这太离谱了吧。
也不知道过了多久，许多人都不敢相信，回过神来的时候，所有人都揉了揉自己的眼睛，但是，看到青玄古国崩塌的古殿神楼，他们才知道，这不是做梦！
“什么人——”过了很久很久，有很多人回过神来，这个问题在他们心里面久久盘旋，此是，真人也好，古圣也罢，那怕是那些偷偷出世的老不死都不敢大声喘一口气，似乎是怕惊动了天古城内某一位沉睡着的无上巨头！
一只手便把帝器压入地下，要知道，这帝器可能是青玄古国的九祖之一的某一位老祖打出，这是何等可怕的一击，若是这一击打在中大域上，说不定能打沉亿万疆土！
然而，就是这样可以屠神斩魔的仙帝宝器一击，被一只大手压下了地下，而古棺中的老祖是生死不明！
此时，无数人暗暗相视一眼，都不敢多去评论。
在这一刻，只怕万年来天古城最安静的时分，整个巨大的天古城甚至连银针落地的声音都能听得到。
仙帝宝器一起，惊动了沉睡的无上巨头，青玄古国是倒霉透顶，他们的老祖连同仙帝宝器都被压入了地下！
“仙帝宝器，并非就是意味着无敌，就算是仙帝真器，也不一定无敌。” 最终，站在四战铜车上的李七夜懒洋洋地说了这样的一句话。
李七夜开口，众人这才松了一口气，屏住呼吸的众人这才敢呼吸，在这一刻，所有人都小心到了极点，不论任何人，都怕惊动了那位沉睡的无上巨头。
在这个时候，李七夜驱着四战铜车慢悠悠地进入了青玄古国的府邸，赤云他们回过神来，急忙快步跟上了李七夜。
青玄古国的府邸洞天远比外面所看到的规模要大很多，其中是自成洞天，不止是古殿神楼栉比，在洞天之内，更是山峦起伏。
在这府邸洞天之内，还有许多的青玄古国弟子，其中的强者包括了王侯真人，甚至是依然有古圣坐镇！
这就是一门双帝的底蕴，对于其他的大教疆国来说，在道艰时代，古圣难求，但是，青玄古国却能派出古圣坐镇外地！
但是，此时此刻他们只能是眼睁睁地看着李七夜带着众人鱼贯而入，那怕是大圣级别的老一辈古圣此时都不敢轻易动手！
刚才突然一只巨手降下，把他们的老祖连同仙帝宝器压入了大地之下，这简直就是让青玄古国弟子的信心崩溃，那怕强大如古圣，此时心里面都发怵，都战战兢兢，连大声喧哗斥喝都不敢，怕是再次惊动了刚才那位无上巨头！
李七夜进入了青玄古国洞天，宛如是自己的后庭一样，一派轻松惬意，一副闲庭信步的模样。
此时，就算青玄古国的诸多王侯对李七夜恨之入骨，但，也不敢贸然出手！
最终，李七夜一派轻松游览青玄古国的洞天之时，一位年老古稀的老人快步迎了上来，一见李七夜，急忙鞠身抱拳，忙是说道：“这位一定是李公子吧，此事乃是一些年轻之辈不懂事世，故此才有了这样的冲突。”
“年轻之辈不懂事世？” 看着青玄古国先倨后恭的态度，李七夜晒笑了一下，说道：“难道那棺里面躺着的老头也是你们青玄古国的晚辈了？”
李七夜这样的话顿时让这老头脸色一变，但是，他还是忍下了这一口气，今日大势不利他们青玄古国，他们老祖被压入地下，生死不知，此时此刻，他们就算是不能忍下这样的耻辱也只能是咬着牙往肚子里吞！
“此次乃是我青玄古国冒犯——”这年事古稀的老头是见过无数世面的人物，见过无数风浪，在这样的节骨眼上，竟然也能吞下这一口气，鞠首说道：“这一次我们青玄古国愿意陪偿一切损失。 只要李公子你开口便是，我青玄古国绝对不含糊！”
果然是做大事的人，果断利索，那怕是这一口气是咽不下，依然是咬着牙咽下了，开口认载。 此时，对于他们来说，没有什么比挖出他们的老祖更重要，所以，这老头一开口就认载！
“公子，杀人不过头点头……”见青玄古国的元老认栽，赤云忍不住轻轻地说道，但是，这话说了一半，又不便再说，现在在这样的场面上，已经是由李七夜说了算。
李七夜看了赤云一眼，也没有多说什么！
九圣妖门不愿意向青玄古国开战，这一点李七夜能理解，九圣妖门还没有稳定下战神殿，没有战神殿绝对的支持，九圣妖门的确是没有那个胆量向青玄古国开战！
“对于我的敌人，我一向都是斩杀！” 李七夜看了老头一眼。
李七夜这样的话，顿时让老头脸色不由一变，对于青玄古国来说，他们从来不怕事，但是，在今天这样的局势之下，他们又不得不服软，除非他们真的是拼个鱼死网破了！ 但是，他们老祖葬在地下，生死未明，没有什么事情比挖出老祖更重要！
“不过，既然作为苦主的九圣妖门都愿意揭过此事，我也不好说什么。” 李七夜淡淡地看了赤云一眼。
可以说，李七夜是给足了赤云情面，也给足了九圣妖门情面，这也是赤云、九圣妖门大力支持他的结果！
赤云也不笨，他知道李七夜给出他情面，他也忙是鞠首。

“Little Demon, accept your death!” Immediately enraged, the person inside the ancient coffin summoned a treasure.
“Boom!” At this moment, the heaven and earth turned pale as the celestials plummeted. A myriad of dao were screaming as the heaven’s will retreated! A treasure flew out, causing numerous people to kneel on the ground.
Thunders cracked down in the air, but Ancient Sky City’s countless universal laws protected the city with the lingering fear that this invincible treasure would create a crater in this area.
“Immortal Emperor Life Treasure!” A pale person emphatically screamed.
The moment this treasure appeared, endless rolling emperor’s power and immortal intent surged. Not only Ancient Sky City, but countless characters in the Grand Middle Territory felt this vast torrential power.
“Who is using an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure!?” At this moment, countless eyes were looking towards Ancient Sky City’s direction!
In the blink of an eye, the power of the Grand Dao in this world was sucked out as the essence of the heaven and earth all supported this Immortal Emperor’s Life Treasure!
The Immortal Emperor Life Treasure was just like the arrival of an Immortal Emperor. It was not something that an Emperor’s Possession or an Emperor’s Decree could compare with!
“It is over…” At this point, the group of Chi Yun turned so pale that they were as white as sheets of paper. They would definitely become annihilated once this Life Treasure struck down. Even Niu Fen’s expression greatly sank as he was in a daze.
“Immortal Emperor Life Treasure.” At this moment, Li Qiye, standing on top of the Tetra-War Bronze Chariot, narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly, in a corner of Ancient Sky City, there was a withered hand reaching out. This hand came from above, encompassing even the soaring Immortal Emperor Life Treasure.
“Bang–bang–bang!” Countless clear sounds resounded as all of Ancient Sky City shook like it was the end of the world. Who knew how many people lost their minds from fear inside the city.
As the hand slowly pushed down, both the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure and the ancient coffin were both completely suppressed. Inside the Heavenly Grotto of the Ancient Kingdom, ancient chambers and jade pavilions collapsed one after another as the earth itself was sinking.

Everyone froze with their mouths wide open; they were unable to close them for a long time!
“Noisy!” After burying the ancient coffin and the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure, the hand disappeared as a voice slowly descended from the sky!
After hearing this voice, Li Shuangyan and Chen Baojiao were stunned as their minds quaked! It was because they had heard of this voice before… The old ghost! The voice of the old ghost from the small shop!
Only they knew — at this time — that the old ghost was the one who took action! With just one action, he shocked everyone. With just one hand, he easily suppressed an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure underground. Even though he couldn’t destroy the Immortal Emperor Life Treasure, but to directly trap it underground, one could only imagine how terrifying this old ghost was.
At this moment, they finally understood the old ghost’s disastrous power and why their young noble wanted the old ghost to owe him a favor!
They then stared at their young noble, but Li Qiye was still calmly standing on top of the Tetra-War Bronze Chariot as if everything was within his expectations!
The spectators, with their mouths open, still haven’t closed them for their souls have not yet returned! This was an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure ah, yet it was pressured by a person with just his bare hand. This, this was too illogical.
After a while, the confused crowd finally came back and rubbed their eyes. After seeing the collapsed buildings of the Ancient Kingdom, they knew that this was not a dream!
“Who…” It took a long time before people began to think about the question revolving in their minds. Enlightened Beings, Ancient Saints, and even the hidden undying old men who came into being didn’t dare to make a single noise. It was as if they were afraid of disturbing the unparalleled giant sleeping in Ancient Sky City!
One hand dominating over an Immortal Emperor Life Treasure! One had to know that this Emperor’s weapon was unleashed by one of the Ancient Kingdom’s Nine Ancestors. This was an extremely terrifying blow. If it was unleashed on top of the Grand Middle Territory, it would be able to sink a massive amount of land!
However, this Immortal Emperor Life Treasure attack that was capable of killing the gods and decapitating the devils was subdued into the ground by one hand, and the ancestor’s fate inside the coffin was unknown as well!
At this time, countless people were only glancing at each other and didn’t dare to discuss.
This event might just be the most tranquil moment of Ancient Sky City within the last ten thousand years. One could even hear the sound of a needle dropping within this huge city.
The Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom was extremely unlucky. Its Immortal Emperor Life Treasure woke up a sleeping unparalleled giant, so its treasure and ancestor were both pressed into the ground!
“An Immortal Emperor Life Treasure does not mean invincibility. Even an Immortal Emperor True Treasure is not necessarily invincible.” In the end, Li Qiye, standing on top of the bronze chariot, lazily spoke.
Li Qiye being the first to talk again finally relieved everyone. They began to breathe again while remaining extremely cautious. No matter who it was, they were all afraid of waking the sleeping giant.
At this time, Li Qiye controlled the bronze chariot and slowly entered the Ancient Kingdom’s mansion. The group of Chi Yun also calmed down and quickly followed Li Qiye.
The mansion inside the Ancient Kingdom’s Heavenly Grotto was much larger than it seemed from the outside. This was a naturally formed Heavenly Grotto. There were not only ancient chambers and heavenly pavilions everywhere, but there were also curving mountain ranges.
There were still many Ancient Kingdom disciples, including Royal Nobles, Enlightened Beings, and even Ancient Saints, presiding inside!
This was the power of a sect with two emperors. Compared to great sects and countries, it was hard for them to have Ancient Saints during the Difficult Dao Era, but the Ancient Kingdom was able to send Ancient Saints out to protect the field!
Although there were powerful Enlightened Beings and Ancient Saints in the grotto, but at this time, they could only watch Li Qiye bring the others inside. Even Ancient Saints at the level of Grand Saint would not easily take action!
The hand from earlier that suppressed their ancestor and Immortal Emperor Life Treasure had completely shattered their morale. Even the powerful Ancient Saints had dread and fear in their minds as they trembled and didn’t dare to make any loud noises, afraid of waking up the unparalleled giant one more time!
Li Qiye entered this grotto as if he was taking a stroll in his own courtyard — completely relaxed and comfortable.
At this juncture, the hatred of many Royal Nobles of the Ancient Kingdom towards Li Qiye permeated deep in their bones, but they didn’t dare to do anything!
Eventually, an old man quickly welcomed Li Qiye as he bowed down while clasping his fists together and busily said: “This person must be Young Noble Li. This matter only began with a few people of the younger generation who didn’t know any better, this was why we have this kind of conflict.”
“Younger generation not knowing any better?” From arrogance to respect, seeing the sudden change in the Ancient Kingdom’s attitude caused Li Qiye to burst out in laughter as he said: “Then the old man lying in that coffin is also a junior of your Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom?”
Li Qiye’s words immediately changed this old man’s expression, but he managed to settle down his anger. Today, the situation was disadvantageous for their Ancient Kingdom. Their ancestor’s fate was still unknown after being pressed underground. At this second, even if they couldn’t endure this humiliation any longer, they still had to bite their teeth and swallow this animosity!
“This time, my Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom has offended…” The old man was an experienced character and had witnessed countless waves and winds. In this key moment, he took a deep breath and bowed to say: “This time, my Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom is willing to pay for all of the damages. As long as Young Noble Li says the word, we will absolutely agree!”
The old man truly was a character capable of accomplishing great tasks with his swift decisiveness. Even though this was hard to swallow, he still bit his teeth to accept that it was their fault. To them, at this time, nothing was more important than digging out their ancestor, so the old man had no other choice but to acquiesce!
“Young Noble, even while killing, we should still spare someone a living path…” Seeing an original elder of the Ancient Kingdom accept their defeat, Chi Yun couldn’t help but gently speak. However, only half of the sentence came out; it was not his place to say more. In this situation, Li Qiye had the final say.
Li Qiye glanced at Chi Yun without saying anything!
Li Qiye understood that the Nine Saint Demon Gate did not want to wage war against the Azure Mysterious Ancient Kingdom. They had not yet appeased the War God Temple. Without its absolute support, the Nine Saint Demon Gate truly did not have the courage to wage war against the Ancient Kingdom!
“Against my enemies, I had always behead all of them!” Li Qiye then stared at the Ancient Kingdom’s old man.
Li Qiye’s declaration shocked the old man. Their Ancient Kingdom had never been afraid of trouble, but under the circumstances today, they couldn’t afford not to bend down unless they truly wanted to fight desperately till the end! However, it was still unknown whether their ancestor buried underground was dead or alive, and nothing was more important than taking him out!
“However, since the Nine Saint Demon Gate — as the victim — is willing to let this matter go, it is not my place to say otherwise.” Li Qiye subtly glanced at Chi Yun.
It could be said that Li Qiye was giving Chi Yun some face, as well as the Nine Saint Demon Gate. This was the outcome of Chi Yun and the gate truly supporting him!
Chi Yun was not foolish, and he knew that Li Qiye was giving him some consideration, so he busily bowed his head.

"value": "Chapter 505- Situation in the World\nAfter a simple wash up, Ouyang Shuo visited the treatment room to take a look at the badly injured Shi Wanshui.\nChiyou’s shocking strike had knocked him out, and he still had not woken up. The doctor that followed the troops could only help him bandage his wounds and treat the physical wounds.\nThe doctors in the Shanhai City Army, especially the legion level doctors, were all the elites that the Medical Division developed and trained. Some were even players who were specialists in real life.\nHence, although Shi Wanshui's injuries were grievous, it was not too big of a problem. As for his internal injuries, they could not do anything about them. They would need to wait for Shi Wanshui to deal with them himself when he woke up.\nOf course, there were still some risks.\nIf Shi Wanshui did not wake up early enough, and his internal injuries took too long to heal, it could leave behind problems. In the worse case scenario, he could lose all his martial arts skills.\nTo someone like Shi Wanshui, losing his skills was the same as losing his life.\nWhen Ouyang Shuo saw the situation, he did not hesitate and took out the Peiyuan Pill. Then, he passed it to the doctor to give it to Shi Wanshui.\nAs expected, after Shi Wanshui consumed the pill, he immediately looked better. His ashen white face started to have some red.\nThe doctor took his pulse and turned around, “Lord, don't worry. General Shi is fine.\"\nOuyang Shuo nodded, “Take good care of him.\" He turned around as he spoke these words. Since the war had just ended, there were still many other matters he needed to attend to.\nAfter he returned from the treatment room, Ouyang Shuo met Shi Hu in the main hall meeting.\n\"Greetings, my Lord!\"\nAlthough Ouyang Shuo was the Barbarian King, in the military, Shi Hu still called him Lord. The great shaman had trained up this mountain barbarian warrior. Be it in terms of IQ or EQ, he was top class.\nHe had the simplicity and honesty of the mountain barbarians but also the quick thinking of the Han people. These two different characteristics mixed together to form his unique character.\nPushing Ouyang Shuo to kingship was his most eye catching performance.\n\"Stand up!\"\nOuyang Shuo sat on the leader seat, the war axe and the small book on the table. When Shi Hu heard this command, he simply stood on the spot.\n\"These two items, do you recognize them?\"\nOuyang Shuo pointed to the axe and the book on the table, smiling as he asked this question.\n\"I do!\"\nWhen they collected Chiyou's corpse, Shi Hu was present. Naturally, he recognized both items. Especially the Heaven Splitting Axe, which was the symbol of Chiyou. All the mountain barbarian warriors dreamed of this weapon.\n\"Now, they are yours!\"\nOuyang Shuo's words were simple, but they Shi Hu stunned. His heartbeat quickened; his heart was about to explode from his chest. All of a sudden, he did not know what to say.\n\"Why, you don't like it?\"\nThis general followed the rules too strictly sometimes. As a result, Ouyang Shuo wanted to tease him.\n\"Lord, this is too precious.\"\nShi Hu still had not regained his composure.\n\"Just take it, you deserve it.\" Ouyang Shuo stood up and placed the two items into Shi Hu’s hands.\n\"Thank you, Lord, for your reward!\"\nSeeing that, Shi Hu knelt on the ground once more and respectfully bowed.\nOuyang Shuo nodded and returned to his seat, \"The meaning and power these two items represent, I am sure you understand. I only hope you don't insult their name.\"\n\"Yes!\"\nShi Hu nodded his head vigorously; his face completely red. Of course, he knew what the Heaven Splitting Axe meant; it was a symbol of climbing up to the strongest warrior throne.\nWhether he could make the throne his own would depend on his personal strength.\nThe Lord could give him weapons, but the Lord could not help him stop the gossips and doubts.\nThe mountain barbarians had always worshiped the strong and everything depended on one’s own power.\n\"At the appropriate time, spread the Hell Slaughterer True Manual to Shi Bao and Lei Jingtian.\" Ouyang Shuo was not going to act like Chiyou and only let one person cultivate it.\nOf course, since it was an emperor rank cultivation technique, it had a high requirement on talent and comprehension, so it was not something that every warrior could cultivate Ouyang Shuo wanted the Hell Slaughterer True Manual to end at his time.\n\"Understood!\"\nWhen the Lord mentioned Shi Bao and Lei Jingtian, he was obviously warning Shi Hu to not grow arrogant. There were still other talented mountain barbarian generals behind him.\nThe mountain barbarians he obtained this time would require generals from his army to lead them. It was more suitable for a mountain barbarian general to lead the mountain barbarian force.\n\"Back down. On the side of the mountain barbarian army, you still need to put in more time and effort.\"\nAlthough the mountain barbarians had surrendered and recognized Ouyang Shuo as their king, in the end, they had still lost. As a result, their emotions were a bit out of control, which could potentially lead to them causing chaos.\nSince the overall situation was a huge rush, they did not have a full month like the Battle of Zhaoqing to reorganize. Ouyang Shuo was planning to leave in just two days.\n\"Understood!\"\nShi Hu nodded and backed down.\nAfter Shi Hu left, Ouyang Shuo finally had the time to read the battle report that the Black Snake Guards sent.\nThe entire battlefield had entered a stalemate situation, where victory was tough to decided. News had spread that Di Chen was ready to send his troops down south at any moment. Hence, the battle situation in the Zhongyuan Region was wholly uncertain.\nSoutheast region.\nXiong Ba's and Zhan Lang's north and south pincer attack placed Huangchao in a terrible situation. After all, they had already lost at the hands of Zhan Lang. Along with their lack of generals and troops, their weaknesses were exposed.\nBased on what the Black Snake Guard stationed at the Jianye intel station had analyzed, if things continued smoothly, they would decide victory in a month.\nZhan Lang and Xiong Ba were both opponents that could not be underestimated. One of them was maturing by the day, and his military talent was showing. The other was an old fox with a lot of help.\nWith these two working together, it was enough to give Huangchao a headache.\nIn comparison, Gong Chengshi and Xunlong Dianxue, who both belonged to the southeast region, seemed dull. In the end, not every commoner Lord could grow as strong as Ouyang Shuo.\nThe part that disappointed Ouyang Shuo was that the alliance Gong Chengshi had formed had not crossed the border till date. It was not that Gong Chengshi did not attack, it was just that his allies did not want to take the risk.\nObviously, Gong Chengshi's control of the Jiangchuan Province was rather weak.\nAs for Xunlong Dianxue, as a province stood in the middle of them, he was a total onlooker. Ouyang Shuo had instructed him to just give up on hopes of joining in on the southeast battlefield. He should just assist Bai Xue's Consonance City.\nOuyang Shuo was just trying to quickly cut back his losses.\nThis chaotic war situation had exposed the weaknesses of the Shanhai Alliance. After this war, the prestige of the Shanhai Alliance would not be as high.\nOn the other hand, the Yanhuang Alliance finally showed signs of making a comeback after the previous setback.\nSouthwest Region.\nFacing the two hundred thousand troops of Taiping Country, even with the help of Luo Shixin's division, Consonance City troops faced defeat after after.\nIn just a week, they lost four cities.\nIn the middle part of the war, Bai Hua had to request help from her brother, Moon Shines over the River. She could only ask him to gather twenty thousand adventure gamemode players to join the war.\nThe moment players died, their levels would fall to zero, and they would lose all their items.\nAll the members of Qingfeng Pavilion were elites, and it was not easy for them to reach their current level. Who knew how much work Bai Hua and Moon Shines over the River had to put in to make them willing to join.\nSolely the compensation fees for the players who died could empty their treasury. However, Bai Hua was forced to the edge of the cliff, so she went all out.\nIn Ouyang Shuo’s last life, Bai Hua probably also used this trump card.\nOf course, in his last life, without the existence of Shanhai City, their situation was better, and they could gather up a bunch of allies.\nOuyang Shuo still remembered that Taiping Country in his last life did not cause much of a storm.\nIn this life, the reason why Taiping Country could act so arrogant was because of Ouyang Shuo. It was because Ouyang Shuo had allowed the birth of such a monster.\nBai Hua could be said to be taking the blame for Ouyang Shuo.\nOuyang Shuo bore the teleportation fees for Xunlong Dianxue's division.\nLuckily, under the help of both the adventure gamemode players and Xunlong Dianxue, Consonance City managed to maintain their defense line.\nThis was also the first time that adventure gamemode players had joined a city war on a large scale.\nWho knows what kind of chain reaction Qingfeng Pavilion would cause on the future of the China region.\nAt the very least, Lords would grow more and more interested in the various guilds.\nLooking at the battle report, Ouyang Shuo's brows relaxed.\nTo word it nicely, after the Battle of Wuzhou ended, the hardest time for the Shanhai Alliance had ended too.\nAfter dealing with the Chiyou Army, with Ouyang Shuo unexpectedly becoming the Barbarian King, the strength of Shanhai City had risen instead. At this time, no matter how they assigned their troops, they were too strong.\nAs such, Ouyang Shuo wanted to hold a meeting to plan for the following military operations."

第五百零五章
简单梳洗之后，欧阳朔起身前往医疗室，看望重伤的史万岁。
蚩尤的惊天一击，将史万岁打得昏迷，至今未醒。 随行的军医，只能是给史万岁包扎好伤口，将外伤止住。
山海城军中的军医，尤其是军团一级配备的军医，可都是官医署培养出来的精锐。 有一些甚至就是玩家，现实中就是外科医生。
因此，史万岁的外伤虽然吓人，却是难不倒军医。 至于内伤，他们却是无能为力，只能等史万岁清醒之后，自行疗伤。
当然，风险还是存在的。
万一史万岁迟迟不能苏醒，内伤一旦耽搁太久，可就会落下终身隐疾，搞不好，就连一身武艺，都会就此破去。
对史万岁这样的猛将而言，一旦武艺被废，也就与自杀无异。
欧阳朔见此，毫不犹豫地自储物囊中，取出系统刚刚奖励的【培元丹】，递给军医，让他给史万岁服下。
果然，史万岁服下【培元丹】之后，气色立即好转。 苍白的脸色，也有了一丝血色。
军医给史万岁切过脉，回头说道：“请君侯放心，史将军已是无大碍。”
欧阳朔点点头，“好好照顾他。” 说着转身离去，战争刚刚结束，还有很多事情，等着他去处理。
自医疗室回来，欧阳朔在正堂，召见石虎。
“拜见君侯！”
虽然欧阳朔现在是【蛮王】，在军中，石虎还是以君侯相称。 这位山蛮战士，经过大巫师一手调教，无论是智商还是情商，都是一流。
在石虎的身上，既有山蛮一族的憨厚，又有着汉人的随机应变。
推举欧阳朔为王，就是石虎最亮丽的一次表演。
“起来吧！”
欧阳朔坐在上首，跟前的茶几上，放着一柄战斧和一本小册子，正是蚩尤掉落的开天斧和《屠狱真经》。
“这两样物品，你可认得？”
欧阳朔指着桌子上的战斧和册子，笑着问道。
“认得！”
尤其是开天斧，那可是蚩尤的标志，也是山蛮战士最梦寐以求的兵器。
“现在，它们是你的了！”
欧阳朔说的轻描淡写，石虎听了却是心中一颤，忍不住心跳加快，心脏都要蹦到嗓子眼。 一时之间，竟然说不出话来。
“怎么，不喜欢？”
这位爱将，有时候就是太规矩了，规矩的让欧阳朔忍不住调侃一番。
“君侯，这，这太贵重了。”
石虎还是没有缓过神来。
“拿去吧，这是你应得的。” 欧阳朔起身，将两件物品塞到石虎手上。
“谢君侯赏赐！”
见此，石虎再次单膝跪地，毕恭毕敬地行了一个大礼。
欧阳朔点了点头，坐回原位，道：“这两件物品，代表的意义和分量，不用我说，想必你也一清二楚。
“是！”
石虎用力地点了点头，脸色潮红。 他当然知道，手持开天斧，也就意味着，登上了山蛮一族第一勇士的宝座。
只是能不能坐稳宝座，不被人说闲话，可就要凭真本事了。
君侯能赐予他兵器，却不能帮他挡去闲言碎语。
山蛮一族，本就对武力推崇备至，一切，都凭拳头说话。
“在合适的时机，将《屠狱真经》，也传授给石豹和雷惊天两人。” 欧阳朔可不准备像蚩尤一般，敝帚自珍，独自一人修炼。
当然，《屠狱真经》毕竟是皇级功法，对战士的资质和悟性要求，自然也是极高的，不是每位山蛮战士，都能修炼。
“明白！”
君侯提到石豹和雷惊天，又何尝不是在警醒他，让他不要骄傲自满。 在他的身后，可是还有其他优秀的山蛮将领。
此番收编山蛮，对军中的山蛮将领，欧阳朔是一定会重用的。 山蛮部队，还是由山蛮将领来统领，最为妥当。
“退下吧，山蛮大军那边，你还要多费一点心。”
山蛮虽然投降，也已经尊欧阳朔为王，只是到底战败，又接连遭受重挫，情绪上未免有些失控，可不要闹出什么大乱子出来。
战况紧急，此役，也不可能像肇庆之战那般，留足一个月的整编时间。
“明白！”
石虎再次点头，应声退下。
石虎离开之后，欧阳朔这才有时间，翻阅黑蛇卫送来的各地战报。
据悉，帝尘已经在北方蠢蠢欲动，随时准备挥师南下。 因此，中原地区的战局，还存在非常大的不确定性，一时难以分出胜负。
东南地区。
毕竟此前就败在战狼手上一次，黄巢锐气已失，再加上缺兵少将，大齐颓势已现。
据黑蛇卫驻建业情报站的指挥使分析，东南战局，如果顺利的话，很有可能在一个月之内，就会分出胜负。
战狼和雄霸两人，都是不可小觑的对手啊。 一个日趋成熟，军事才华越发的锋芒毕露；一个是老狐狸，一代枭雄，手腕强硬。
这两人一联手，确实足以让黄巢头疼的。
说到底，平民领主中，不是谁都能像欧阳朔一般，运筹帷幄，决胜千里啊。
更让欧阳朔失望的是，攻城狮组织的联军，至今都还没有过境，一直处于观望之中。 不是攻城狮不思进取，而是他的盟友们，不想冒这个险啊。
显然，攻城狮对江川行省的掌控力度，不是一般的弱。
欧阳朔已经指示寻龙点穴，让他干脆放弃东南战局的期望，转而率部，赶去增援白桦的灵犀城。 欧阳朔这也是壮士断腕吧！
这一场波及天下的战乱，将【山海盟】的弱点，一下暴露出来。
此战过后，【山海盟】在中国区的威望，怕是都要遇挫，不再像此前那般如日中天。
反倒是【炎黄盟】，经过蛰伏之后，又有东山再起的势头。
西南地区。
面对太平天国的二十万大军，即便有罗士信师团相助，灵犀城大军，还是被打得节节败退。
仅仅一周的时间，就接连丢失了四座城池。
战争打到中期，白桦不得不请动她的大哥明月照大江，请他调集【清风阁】两万余名顶尖的冒险类战斗职业玩家，加入战场，协助领地防御。
玩家一旦阵亡，可是等级清零，物品全部掉落。
【清风阁】的玩家，都是清一色的精英，经过两年的练级，好不容易走到今天，要说服他们加入犹如绞肉机一般的战场。
仅是玩家战死的赔偿金，估计就能掏空灵犀城的金库。 白桦也真是被逼到悬崖边缘，彻底的豁出去了。
前世，白桦怕是也动用了这张底牌吧。
当然，前世因为没有山海城的存在，灵犀城的处境反倒比现在要好许多，能够召集到一批盟军，不像此次孤立无援。
欧阳朔记得，前世的太平天国，在西南地区并没有掀起多大的腥风血雨。
对此，欧阳朔都有些过意不，正如如此，他才会爽快地派遣罗士信师团，去增援灵犀城。
同时，还亲自说动寻龙点穴劳师远征。
寻龙点穴师团的传送费用，都是欧阳朔资助的。
好在，在冒险类玩家和寻龙点穴师团的双双支援下，灵犀城总算是暂时稳住了防线，没有被太平天国的大军，攻入腹地。
这也是第一次，冒险类玩家大规模地加入到领地战争当中。
就是不知道，【清风阁】的这一次示范，对中国区的未来格局，又会产生怎样的连锁效应。
最起码，各大领主对玩家行会，会越发的重视吧。
看罢战报，欧阳朔眉头一松。
应该来说，随着梧州之战结束，【山海盟】最为难的时刻，已经结束。
解决掉蚩尤大军，尤其是欧阳朔意外地受封为【蛮王】，山海城大军的实力，不降反升。 这个时候，山海城无论怎么布局，都是游刃有余。
正是如此，欧阳朔才要连夜升帐议事，布置接下来的军事行动。 (未完待续。

Chapter 505- Situation in the World
After a simple wash up, Ouyang Shuo visited the treatment room to take a look at the badly injured Shi Wanshui.
Chiyou’s shocking strike had knocked him out, and he still had not woken up. The doctor that followed the troops could only help him bandage his wounds and treat the physical wounds.
The doctors in the Shanhai City Army, especially the legion level doctors, were all the elites that the Medical Division developed and trained. Some were even players who were specialists in real life.
Hence, although Shi Wanshui's injuries were grievous, it was not too big of a problem. As for his internal injuries, they could not do anything about them. They would need to wait for Shi Wanshui to deal with them himself when he woke up.
Of course, there were still some risks.
If Shi Wanshui did not wake up early enough, and his internal injuries took too long to heal, it could leave behind problems. In the worse case scenario, he could lose all his martial arts skills.
To someone like Shi Wanshui, losing his skills was the same as losing his life.
When Ouyang Shuo saw the situation, he did not hesitate and took out the Peiyuan Pill. Then, he passed it to the doctor to give it to Shi Wanshui.
As expected, after Shi Wanshui consumed the pill, he immediately looked better. His ashen white face started to have some red.
The doctor took his pulse and turned around, “Lord, don't worry. General Shi is fine."
Ouyang Shuo nodded, “Take good care of him." He turned around as he spoke these words. Since the war had just ended, there were still many other matters he needed to attend to.
After he returned from the treatment room, Ouyang Shuo met Shi Hu in the main hall meeting.
"Greetings, my Lord!"
Although Ouyang Shuo was the Barbarian King, in the military, Shi Hu still called him Lord. The great shaman had trained up this mountain barbarian warrior. Be it in terms of IQ or EQ, he was top class.
He had the simplicity and honesty of the mountain barbarians but also the quick thinking of the Han people. These two different characteristics mixed together to form his unique character.
Pushing Ouyang Shuo to kingship was his most eye catching performance.
"Stand up!"
Ouyang Shuo sat on the leader seat, the war axe and the small book on the table. When Shi Hu heard this command, he simply stood on the spot.
"These two items, do you recognize them?"
Ouyang Shuo pointed to the axe and the book on the table, smiling as he asked this question.
"I do!"
When they collected Chiyou's corpse, Shi Hu was present. Naturally, he recognized both items. Especially the Heaven Splitting Axe, which was the symbol of Chiyou. All the mountain barbarian warriors dreamed of this weapon.
"Now, they are yours!"
Ouyang Shuo's words were simple, but they Shi Hu stunned. His heartbeat quickened; his heart was about to explode from his chest. All of a sudden, he did not know what to say.
"Why, you don't like it?"
This general followed the rules too strictly sometimes. As a result, Ouyang Shuo wanted to tease him.
"Lord, this is too precious."
Shi Hu still had not regained his composure.
"Just take it, you deserve it." Ouyang Shuo stood up and placed the two items into Shi Hu’s hands.
"Thank you, Lord, for your reward!"
Seeing that, Shi Hu knelt on the ground once more and respectfully bowed.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and returned to his seat, "The meaning and power these two items represent, I am sure you understand. I only hope you don't insult their name."
"Yes!"
Shi Hu nodded his head vigorously; his face completely red. Of course, he knew what the Heaven Splitting Axe meant; it was a symbol of climbing up to the strongest warrior throne.
Whether he could make the throne his own would depend on his personal strength.
The Lord could give him weapons, but the Lord could not help him stop the gossips and doubts.
The mountain barbarians had always worshiped the strong and everything depended on one’s own power.
"At the appropriate time, spread the Hell Slaughterer True Manual to Shi Bao and Lei Jingtian." Ouyang Shuo was not going to act like Chiyou and only let one person cultivate it.
Of course, since it was an emperor rank cultivation technique, it had a high requirement on talent and comprehension, so it was not something that every warrior could cultivate Ouyang Shuo wanted the Hell Slaughterer True Manual to end at his time.
"Understood!"
When the Lord mentioned Shi Bao and Lei Jingtian, he was obviously warning Shi Hu to not grow arrogant. There were still other talented mountain barbarian generals behind him.
The mountain barbarians he obtained this time would require generals from his army to lead them. It was more suitable for a mountain barbarian general to lead the mountain barbarian force.
"Back down. On the side of the mountain barbarian army, you still need to put in more time and effort."
Although the mountain barbarians had surrendered and recognized Ouyang Shuo as their king, in the end, they had still lost. As a result, their emotions were a bit out of control, which could potentially lead to them causing chaos.
Since the overall situation was a huge rush, they did not have a full month like the Battle of Zhaoqing to reorganize. Ouyang Shuo was planning to leave in just two days.
"Understood!"
Shi Hu nodded and backed down.
After Shi Hu left, Ouyang Shuo finally had the time to read the battle report that the Black Snake Guards sent.
The entire battlefield had entered a stalemate situation, where victory was tough to decided. News had spread that Di Chen was ready to send his troops down south at any moment. Hence, the battle situation in the Zhongyuan Region was wholly uncertain.
Southeast region.
Xiong Ba's and Zhan Lang's north and south pincer attack placed Huangchao in a terrible situation. After all, they had already lost at the hands of Zhan Lang. Along with their lack of generals and troops, their weaknesses were exposed.
Based on what the Black Snake Guard stationed at the Jianye intel station had analyzed, if things continued smoothly, they would decide victory in a month.
Zhan Lang and Xiong Ba were both opponents that could not be underestimated. One of them was maturing by the day, and his military talent was showing. The other was an old fox with a lot of help.
With these two working together, it was enough to give Huangchao a headache.
In comparison, Gong Chengshi and Xunlong Dianxue, who both belonged to the southeast region, seemed dull. In the end, not every commoner Lord could grow as strong as Ouyang Shuo.
The part that disappointed Ouyang Shuo was that the alliance Gong Chengshi had formed had not crossed the border till date. It was not that Gong Chengshi did not attack, it was just that his allies did not want to take the risk.
Obviously, Gong Chengshi's control of the Jiangchuan Province was rather weak.
As for Xunlong Dianxue, as a province stood in the middle of them, he was a total onlooker. Ouyang Shuo had instructed him to just give up on hopes of joining in on the southeast battlefield. He should just assist Bai Xue's Consonance City.
Ouyang Shuo was just trying to quickly cut back his losses.
This chaotic war situation had exposed the weaknesses of the Shanhai Alliance. After this war, the prestige of the Shanhai Alliance would not be as high.
On the other hand, the Yanhuang Alliance finally showed signs of making a comeback after the previous setback.
Southwest Region.
Facing the two hundred thousand troops of Taiping Country, even with the help of Luo Shixin's division, Consonance City troops faced defeat after after.
In just a week, they lost four cities.
In the middle part of the war, Bai Hua had to request help from her brother, Moon Shines over the River. She could only ask him to gather twenty thousand adventure gamemode players to join the war.
The moment players died, their levels would fall to zero, and they would lose all their items.
All the members of Qingfeng Pavilion were elites, and it was not easy for them to reach their current level. Who knew how much work Bai Hua and Moon Shines over the River had to put in to make them willing to join.
Solely the compensation fees for the players who died could empty their treasury. However, Bai Hua was forced to the edge of the cliff, so she went all out.
In Ouyang Shuo’s last life, Bai Hua probably also used this trump card.
Of course, in his last life, without the existence of Shanhai City, their situation was better, and they could gather up a bunch of allies.
Ouyang Shuo still remembered that Taiping Country in his last life did not cause much of a storm.
In this life, the reason why Taiping Country could act so arrogant was because of Ouyang Shuo. It was because Ouyang Shuo had allowed the birth of such a monster.
Bai Hua could be said to be taking the blame for Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo bore the teleportation fees for Xunlong Dianxue's division.
Luckily, under the help of both the adventure gamemode players and Xunlong Dianxue, Consonance City managed to maintain their defense line.
This was also the first time that adventure gamemode players had joined a city war on a large scale.
Who knows what kind of chain reaction Qingfeng Pavilion would cause on the future of the China region.
At the very least, Lords would grow more and more interested in the various guilds.
Looking at the battle report, Ouyang Shuo's brows relaxed.
To word it nicely, after the Battle of Wuzhou ended, the hardest time for the Shanhai Alliance had ended too.
After dealing with the Chiyou Army, with Ouyang Shuo unexpectedly becoming the Barbarian King, the strength of Shanhai City had risen instead. At this time, no matter how they assigned their troops, they were too strong.
As such, Ouyang Shuo wanted to hold a meeting to plan for the following military operations.

"value": "Chapter 894 - Wuqi Takes Control\nBefore Fu Jian even said anything, Fu Rong said, “Your highness, let’s behead Zhu Xu now.”\nFu Jian’s good treatment of prisoners had made Fu Rong unhappy. Hearing the words of Di Chen, Fu Rong would rather just kill all of them.\nA similar blood color appeared in Fu Jian’s eyes. When he thought about the possible defeat and his dream of ruling the entire China disappearing, his mercy slowly disappeared.\n“Your highness!” Fu Rong said once more.\nFu Jian raised his head and said coldly, “Men!” “Present!”\n“Zhu Xu eats our stuff and takes our salary but betrays our Imperial Court, becoming a spy for East Jin. Capture him and kill him as an example.”\nThe current Zhu Xu was hoping that the Jin army would kill their way over. Who knew that catastrophe would strike? With Fu Jian’s Personal Guards acting, he had no way to resist.\nAfter a short while, his bloody head was sent to the tent; his eyes were still wide opened. How would Zhu Xu know that there would be the sudden appearance of players?\nAt this point, the Battle of Fei River had changed, who knows where to.\nFu Jian looked at the head as his anger rose, “Pass this head across the army; then, send it over the shore.”\n“Yes!”\n‘The death of Zhu Xu will be able to stop the other schemers in the Qin army.’ Fu Jian thought to himself.\nHuman nature was just so complicated.\nBefore this, Fu Jian trusted all the people under him. However, with the words of Di Chen, the darkness in his heart was brought out.\nSeeing that his first target was achieved, Di Chen continued, “Your highness, since Zhu Xu has been slain, we cannot let Murong Chui and Yao Chang walk away. If not, it will cause problems in the future.”\nThe Yanhuang Alliance had ambitions in this battle. Di Chen wanted to change history just like Ouyang Shuo did previously.\nEven if it were not for the glory, Di Chen really needed the merit points.\nHowever, to truly change history was really difficult. The Yanhuang Alliance felt that they needed to efficiently utilize the million troops of the former Qin army. If not, in a player army versus player army faceoff, they did not have any confidence.\nMoreover, for them to make use of the million former Qin troops, they needed to remodel it. At the very least, it could not be like a ticking time bomb that would explode with a touch.\nIf that happened, not having the army would be better.\nHowever, it was not easy to remodel a million troops in a short time. Di Chen’s goal was to remove a few key people in the former Qin army and not let them create trouble.\nZhu Xu was the first; Murong Chui and Yao Chang were the second and third ones.\n“This…” Fu Jian hesitated.\nEven Fu Rong said, “To kill our own generals before the battle even starts, it might cause the army to be unsettled.”\nWhen Di Chen saw that, he knew that he would not be able to kill them. Hence, he had to take a step back, “Even if you do not kill them, you need to remove their powers and give them another role.”\n“That can be done.” Fu Jian did not hesitate.\nHence, Di Chen easily removed two problems of the former Qin army.\nImmediately, Fu Jian and Fu Rong decided to move them to the command center. In name, it was a promotion, but in truth, it was to remove them from the frontlines.\nWith 400 thousand players, Murong Chui and Yao Chang would not dare to try anything funny.\nAfter the two of them were given new appointments, there were two empty spots. Fu Jian looked at Di Chen, “Do you have anyone to recommend?”\nDi Chen was delighted, “I recommend two people, Thee Kingdoms general Wei Yan and Hua Xiong.”\nWei Yan was a general under Feng Qingyue, while Hua Xiong was under Sha Pojun.\nGenerals like Lianpo, Tiandan, and Wuqi obviously could not be used.\nFu Jian was glad when he heard it. It was not long after the Three Kingdoms, and the famous names of Wei Yan and Hua Xiong were much stronger than Murong Chui and Yao Chang.\n“Good, I agree.”\nHence, Wei Yan and Hua Xiong were passed. The player forces started the first step of infiltration into the former Qin army. However, this was still a distance away from Di Chen’s goal.\nWhen Di Chen saw that Fu Jian was pleased, he carefully suggested, “The Qin army is a mix of many races and the language communication is difficult. I have a bunch of generals good at various languages, would you use them?”\nPlayers in the game had translation systems and were good at all kinds of languages. The generals mostly came from Zhan Lang’s forces and were all retired military personnel that were really experienced.\nWhen Fu Jian heard that, his eyes lit up, “There’s actually something so magical, how many?”\n“Five thousand!”\n“Since that’s the case, appoint them as the contact officers of the army.” Fu Jian had been through many wars and understood military affairs really well.\n“Thank you for your trust.” Di Chen was delighted too.\nFive thousand contact officers were enough to build up a highly efficient commanding network to stop the biggest weakness of the Qin army.\nThis was a god stroke. Fu Jian continued, “Do you have any other generals to recommend?”\nDi Chen replied, “I recommend Wuqi.”\n“What?” Fu Jian quickly got up and said urgently, “The Wuqi you mention, is it the warring states Wuqi?”\n“That’s right.”\nWuqi was the top general in the Yanhuang Alliance, and he was the key person in their plot for them to control the Qin army.\nFu Jian’s face turned red as he walked around the tent, thinking of a huge decision. After a long while, he calmed down, “Immediately call general Wuqi here, I’m going to appoint him as chief commander. He will be in charge of the million Qin forces and take full control of this war.”\nWhen Di Chen heard these words, he was so shocked that he could not utter a word. Their original plan was for him to be a commander. Who knew that Fu Jian would make such a decision?\nWith that, the Yanhuang Alliance’s remodeling of the former Qin army had reached a crucial step.\nDi Chen bowed, “Thank you for your trust!”\nWith all his targets achieved, Di Chen took his leave. As for the specific war arrangements, he would wait until Wuqi was appointed.\nBased on the plan, Zhao Zhuang and the other generals would be appointed together and help Wuqi change the Qin army. As for the players, they had Tiandan and Lianpo.\nFor this battle, the famous generals of Yanhuang Alliance had all come out.\nAt night, Zhu Xu’s head was brought over the shore by an envoy.\nWhen Xie Shi and Xie Xuan saw the head, they kept silent for a while. They were thinking back to the words that Zhu Xu had said not long ago. Their hearts were filled with guilt.\n“Let’s bury Governor Zhu!” Xie Shi ordered. “Yes!”\nOuyang Shuo was expressionless. Since the start of the battle, he had predicted that Zhu Xu would die. If it was him, he would not let Zhu Xu live either.\nDi Chen’s actions were just normal.\n“This battle will be a hard one.”\nWho knows when, but Feng Qiuhuang suddenly appeared behind Ouyang Shuo and spoke.\nLooking at the setting sun, Ouyang Shuo kept silent and did not say anything.\n… That afternoon, Xie Shi called to see Ouyang Shuo, “I agree with your suggestion.”\nOuyang Shuo nodded. Actually, Xie Shi did not have a choice, and he asked, “Can you send an elite force to sneak attack their grain transport group?”\nTo break the Qin army grain path was the key to winning this battle.\nHowever, Ouyang Shuo had just arrived here. Even if he studied history books, he did not understand the exact situation of the battle and needed Xie Shi to give him his answer.\nXie Shi’s answer really disappointed Ouyang Shuo, “It’s really difficult, the Qin army is swarming toward Shouyang. On the roads are all Qin troops, so to sneak attack it is as hard as climbing the heavens.”\nOuyang Shuo kept silent.\nA huge army had the difficulties of a huge army, but they also had their benefits – they were not so easy to sneak attack.\nXie Shi continued, “Late last night, the spy in the Qin army said that they are making big moves. Not only did they kill Zhu Xu, but they also removed Murong Chui and Yan Chang. Most crucially, Fu Jian appointed Wuqi as chief commander. Other than that, there was Wei Yan, Hua Xiong, and Zhao Zhuang. It seems like the player forces are taking control of the army.”\nOuyang Shuo nodded; the actions of Di Chen and the others were just as he had expected. If they did not know how to use these advantages, Di Chen would not be fit to be his opponent.\nThe only thing that surprised Ouyang Shuo was that Fu Jian actually allowed Wuqi to be the chief commander.\nWasn’t Fu Jian afraid? Maybe because he was afraid, so he did not care. He acted without the restraint; he just wanted to win.\nHence, the pressure on the East Jin camp grew greater and greater.\nIf Ouyang Shuo knew that there were five thousand more officers that moved into the Qin army, his head would probably swell.\nCompared to Di Chen, there was a limit to the things that Ouyang Shuo could do. Looking at the 80 thousand Jin army, he could not do much. Xie Xuan was also the creator of the north house army, so even if Ouyang Shuo wanted to stick a general in, the north house army generals would not be happy.\nThis was the natural deficit of the East Jin camp.\nLeaving the tent, Ouyang Shuo was thinking of a way to solve the problem. “Forget it; let’s just go and ask Wen He.”\nAt the key moment, it was best to use Jia Xu.\nIn Ouyang Shuo’s tent, Jia Xu, Huo Qubing, Ma Chao, Wang He, his other men, as well as Feng Qiuhuang, Wufu, and Gong Chengshi had all gathered together.\nSince Jia Xu was present, Gong Chengshi did not bring his strategist, Jushou. The summoning talisman that Ouyang Shuo gave Gong Chengshi was not effective, and he summoned a civil servant.\nCompared to the Yanhuang Alliance, the Shanhai Alliance general formation was far weaker. Apart from the Great Xia Dynasty, the other three territories did not have any huge names.\nThis battle was becoming tougher and tougher."

第八百九十四章
苻坚还没表态呢，苻融先说了，“陛下，朱序当斩。”
陛下对罪臣俘虏的优待，早就让苻融不满。
苻坚眼中同样闪过一丝血色，想到可能的溃败，想到他一统天下的梦想可能就此葬送，苻坚的仁慈正在渐渐消失。
苻融再次说道。
苻坚豁然抬头，寒声说道：“来人！”
“朱序食君俸禄，却背叛朝廷，勾结东晋，做了内奸。
“诺！” 此刻的朱序还在期盼着晋军杀过来呢，哪里想到灾祸已经降临。
有苻坚亲卫出手，又在军营之中，朱序没有任何反抗之力。 稍倾，朱序血淋淋的头颅就被送到营帐，双目圆瞪，却是死不瞑目。
至此，淝水之战转了个大弯，不知要走向何方。
苻坚见了朱序的头颅，心中没来由闪过一丝怒气，道：“将此头颅传遍三军，再给对岸送去。”
“诺！”
“朱序之死，应该能镇住秦军中的一些别有用心之人。” 苻坚在心中想到。
人性就是这般复杂。
可经帝尘这么一剖析，人性中的阴暗面就汹涌而出，再无可抵挡。
帝尘见第一个目的顺利达到，接着说道：“陛下，朱序固然当斩，慕容垂跟姚苌这样的心怀不轨之人也不能放过，否则的话，必定后患无穷。”
对【淝水之战】，【炎黄盟】不是一点野心都没有，帝尘也想要像欧阳朔那样，协助前秦，完成一次华丽的逆袭。
就算不为荣誉，帝尘对功勋值也是极度渴望。
可要实现逆袭又谈何容易，【炎黄盟】的一致看法是，必须将前秦百万大军有效利用起来。 否则的话，仅凭异人军团之间的对抗，他们并无信心。
而要利用好前秦百万大军，首先要做的就是对这百万大军进行重塑，最起码不能让秦军像一个定时炸药一样，一碰就溃散。
那样的话，还不如没有的好。
只是要在短时间内重塑百万大军谈何容易，帝尘首要目标就是清除掉前秦军中的一些核心人物，别让这些人添乱。
朱序是第一个，慕容垂跟姚苌就是第二、第三个。
“这……”苻坚有些迟疑。
就连苻融也说：“临战之时斩杀己方大将，怕是要军心不稳。”
帝尘见此，知道眼下无法干掉两人，只能退而求其次，道：“即便不杀了这两人，也要解除他们的兵权，安排一个闲职。”
“这个可以。” 苻坚没有迟疑。
如此，帝尘轻轻巧巧地就为前秦除去两个隐患。
当即，苻坚跟苻融商议，将慕容垂跟姚苌调到指挥部任职，名义上是升官，实际上却是调离了一线部队。
有四十万异人军团压阵，谅慕容垂跟姚苌也不敢忤逆。
两人调离，空出两个位置，苻坚看了帝尘一眼，道：“你可有举荐之人？”
帝尘心中一喜，道：“我举荐两人，三国将领魏延与华雄。”
魏延是风清月麾下将领，华雄则是杀破军麾下将领，算是此番【炎黄盟】将军序列中次一等的存在。
像廉颇、田单以及吴起这样的名将，自然不能轻易放走。
苻坚听了大喜，眼下距离三国时期并不久，对魏延与华雄之名苻坚自然是知晓的，却是比慕容垂跟姚苌强太多。
“好，朕同意了。”
苻坚当场拍板。 如此，通过魏延跟华雄两员大将，异人军团开始了对前秦大军的第一步渗透。 而这距离帝尘的目标，还有一段距离。
帝尘见苻坚颇为满意，小心翼翼地建议道：“秦军种族混杂，语言沟通不便，异人军团麾下有一批精通各种语言的军官，不知陛下可用的上？”
游戏中玩家自带翻译系统，精通各种语言，帝尘口中的军官主要来自战狼部，均是退役军人出身，作战经验丰富。
苻坚听了，眼放光芒，道：“竟有这等奇人异士，有多少人？”
“五千。”
苻坚大喜，道：“既如此，朕任命他们为军中各部联络官，即刻赴任。”
“谢陛下信任。” 帝尘同样大喜。
五千名特殊联络官，足以在百万秦军中组建起一张高效的指挥网络，一下解决了秦军最大的弱点。
苻坚却是尝到甜头，继续说道：“你可还有其他将领举荐？”
“什么？”
苻坚猛地起身，急切说道：“你说的吴起，可是战国吴子。”
“正是此人。”
吴起可是【炎黄盟】第一大将，也是【炎黄盟】执掌秦军关键人物。
苻坚脸色潮红，在营帐中走来走去，显是在下一个大决定，良久，方才定住，看向帝尘说道：“你听着，即刻将吴起将军叫来，朕要任命他为大都督，替朕掌百万秦军，全权统领此战。”
帝尘听了，惊讶的说不出话来。 他们原本的打算，不过是让吴起进入秦军担任一个统兵大将，哪里想到，苻坚竟有此等气魄。
如此一来，【炎黄盟】对秦军的重塑走向关键一步。
帝尘躬身行了一礼，道：“谢陛下信任。”
前期目标悉数达成，帝尘告辞离开。 具体的作战安排，还是等到吴起等将领一一赴任之后，再做计较吧。
按计划，赵庄等将领也将随吴起一统赴任，协助吴起改造秦军。 至于异人军团，则由田单、廉颇等一干名将坐镇。
此次战役，【炎黄盟】名将可谓倾巢而出。
傍晚时分，朱序的头颅被秦军使者送到对岸。
谢石跟谢玄见了朱序的头颅，久久无语，想起不久前朱序的慷慨陈词，两人心中充满愧疚，更是满心的挫败。
“将朱刺史厚葬了吧！” 谢石吩咐。
欧阳朔面无表情，自战役开始，他就预见到了朱序的死亡。 换做是他，也绝不会容许朱序这样的人存在。
帝尘等人的做法，实在太正常不过。
“这一场战役不好打啊。”
不知何时，凤囚凰出现在欧阳朔身后，感慨说道。
望着天边的夕阳，欧阳朔默然无语。
次日下午，谢石召见欧阳朔，道：“你昨天的提议，我同意了。”
欧阳朔点头，其实谢石也没有其他选择，问道：“有没有可能派出一支精锐部队去袭击敌军的运粮队？”
破坏秦军粮道，是取胜之关键。
只是欧阳朔刚抵达战役地图不久，即便此前做足了功课，翻阅史料，到底对战争具体情况不了解，需要谢石这样的土著给出答案。
谢石的回答让欧阳朔颇为失望，“很难。 秦军后续部队正源源不断地往寿阳集结，大道之上，放眼望去全是秦军，想要袭击运粮队可谓难如登天。”
欧阳朔默然。
大部队有大部队的难处，但也有好处，就是不虞被偷袭。
谢石接着说道：“昨天深夜，我们安插在秦军的密探传来消息，秦军有大动作。 不仅斩杀了朱序，还解除了慕容垂跟姚苌的兵权。
欧阳朔点了点头，帝尘等人的做法倒是跟他战前推演基本一致。 倘若不懂得利用这些优势，帝尘也不配做他欧阳朔的对手。
唯一让欧阳朔意外的是，吴起竟然被苻坚任命为临时大都督。
正是因为害怕，才少了顾忌，没了约束，行事以取胜为一切的前提，破除旧例。
这样一来，对东晋阵营的压力就越发大了。
倘若欧阳朔知道还有五千军官进入秦军，怕是头都要大了。
就凭眼下的八万晋军，实在没什么好折腾的。 而且谢玄还是北府军创始人，又不是什么庸才，即便欧阳朔想安插一位将领进去，怕是北府军将士也不乐意。
这便是东晋阵营的先天劣势了。
离开中军营帐，欧阳朔一直在琢磨破解之法，却怎样也想不到一个良策。 “算了，还是回去问文和吧。”
关键时刻，还得贾诩这位首席军师上阵。
欧阳朔营帐中，贾诩、霍去病、马超、王龁等人，以及凤囚凰、碔砆、攻城狮等三位领主，齐聚在此，共商大计。
因为有贾诩在，攻城狮此次并没带谋士沮授来。 上次欧阳朔送给攻城狮的召唤符，不凑巧，召唤出来的也是一位文臣。
相比【炎黄盟】，【山海盟】此番出征淝水之战的将领阵容可就有些凋敝。 除了大夏王朝，其他三个领地都没什么让人信服的大将。
这一场战役，是越来越不好打了。

Chapter 894 - Wuqi Takes Control
Before Fu Jian even said anything, Fu Rong said, “Your highness, let’s behead Zhu Xu now.”
Fu Jian’s good treatment of prisoners had made Fu Rong unhappy. Hearing the words of Di Chen, Fu Rong would rather just kill all of them.
A similar blood color appeared in Fu Jian’s eyes. When he thought about the possible defeat and his dream of ruling the entire China disappearing, his mercy slowly disappeared.
“Your highness!” Fu Rong said once more.
Fu Jian raised his head and said coldly, “Men!” “Present!”
“Zhu Xu eats our stuff and takes our salary but betrays our Imperial Court, becoming a spy for East Jin. Capture him and kill him as an example.”
The current Zhu Xu was hoping that the Jin army would kill their way over. Who knew that catastrophe would strike? With Fu Jian’s Personal Guards acting, he had no way to resist.
After a short while, his bloody head was sent to the tent; his eyes were still wide opened. How would Zhu Xu know that there would be the sudden appearance of players?
At this point, the Battle of Fei River had changed, who knows where to.
Fu Jian looked at the head as his anger rose, “Pass this head across the army; then, send it over the shore.”
“Yes!”
‘The death of Zhu Xu will be able to stop the other schemers in the Qin army.’ Fu Jian thought to himself.
Human nature was just so complicated.
Before this, Fu Jian trusted all the people under him. However, with the words of Di Chen, the darkness in his heart was brought out.
Seeing that his first target was achieved, Di Chen continued, “Your highness, since Zhu Xu has been slain, we cannot let Murong Chui and Yao Chang walk away. If not, it will cause problems in the future.”
The Yanhuang Alliance had ambitions in this battle. Di Chen wanted to change history just like Ouyang Shuo did previously.
Even if it were not for the glory, Di Chen really needed the merit points.
However, to truly change history was really difficult. The Yanhuang Alliance felt that they needed to efficiently utilize the million troops of the former Qin army. If not, in a player army versus player army faceoff, they did not have any confidence.
Moreover, for them to make use of the million former Qin troops, they needed to remodel it. At the very least, it could not be like a ticking time bomb that would explode with a touch.
If that happened, not having the army would be better.
However, it was not easy to remodel a million troops in a short time. Di Chen’s goal was to remove a few key people in the former Qin army and not let them create trouble.
Zhu Xu was the first; Murong Chui and Yao Chang were the second and third ones.
“This…” Fu Jian hesitated.
Even Fu Rong said, “To kill our own generals before the battle even starts, it might cause the army to be unsettled.”
When Di Chen saw that, he knew that he would not be able to kill them. Hence, he had to take a step back, “Even if you do not kill them, you need to remove their powers and give them another role.”
“That can be done.” Fu Jian did not hesitate.
Hence, Di Chen easily removed two problems of the former Qin army.
Immediately, Fu Jian and Fu Rong decided to move them to the command center. In name, it was a promotion, but in truth, it was to remove them from the frontlines.
With 400 thousand players, Murong Chui and Yao Chang would not dare to try anything funny.
After the two of them were given new appointments, there were two empty spots. Fu Jian looked at Di Chen, “Do you have anyone to recommend?”
Di Chen was delighted, “I recommend two people, Thee Kingdoms general Wei Yan and Hua Xiong.”
Wei Yan was a general under Feng Qingyue, while Hua Xiong was under Sha Pojun.
Generals like Lianpo, Tiandan, and Wuqi obviously could not be used.
Fu Jian was glad when he heard it. It was not long after the Three Kingdoms, and the famous names of Wei Yan and Hua Xiong were much stronger than Murong Chui and Yao Chang.
“Good, I agree.”
Hence, Wei Yan and Hua Xiong were passed. The player forces started the first step of infiltration into the former Qin army. However, this was still a distance away from Di Chen’s goal.
When Di Chen saw that Fu Jian was pleased, he carefully suggested, “The Qin army is a mix of many races and the language communication is difficult. I have a bunch of generals good at various languages, would you use them?”
Players in the game had translation systems and were good at all kinds of languages. The generals mostly came from Zhan Lang’s forces and were all retired military personnel that were really experienced.
When Fu Jian heard that, his eyes lit up, “There’s actually something so magical, how many?”
“Five thousand!”
“Since that’s the case, appoint them as the contact officers of the army.” Fu Jian had been through many wars and understood military affairs really well.
“Thank you for your trust.” Di Chen was delighted too.
Five thousand contact officers were enough to build up a highly efficient commanding network to stop the biggest weakness of the Qin army.
This was a god stroke. Fu Jian continued, “Do you have any other generals to recommend?”
Di Chen replied, “I recommend Wuqi.”
“What?” Fu Jian quickly got up and said urgently, “The Wuqi you mention, is it the warring states Wuqi?”
“That’s right.”
Wuqi was the top general in the Yanhuang Alliance, and he was the key person in their plot for them to control the Qin army.
Fu Jian’s face turned red as he walked around the tent, thinking of a huge decision. After a long while, he calmed down, “Immediately call general Wuqi here, I’m going to appoint him as chief commander. He will be in charge of the million Qin forces and take full control of this war.”
When Di Chen heard these words, he was so shocked that he could not utter a word. Their original plan was for him to be a commander. Who knew that Fu Jian would make such a decision?
With that, the Yanhuang Alliance’s remodeling of the former Qin army had reached a crucial step.
Di Chen bowed, “Thank you for your trust!”
With all his targets achieved, Di Chen took his leave. As for the specific war arrangements, he would wait until Wuqi was appointed.
Based on the plan, Zhao Zhuang and the other generals would be appointed together and help Wuqi change the Qin army. As for the players, they had Tiandan and Lianpo.
For this battle, the famous generals of Yanhuang Alliance had all come out.
At night, Zhu Xu’s head was brought over the shore by an envoy.
When Xie Shi and Xie Xuan saw the head, they kept silent for a while. They were thinking back to the words that Zhu Xu had said not long ago. Their hearts were filled with guilt.
“Let’s bury Governor Zhu!” Xie Shi ordered. “Yes!”
Ouyang Shuo was expressionless. Since the start of the battle, he had predicted that Zhu Xu would die. If it was him, he would not let Zhu Xu live either.
Di Chen’s actions were just normal.
“This battle will be a hard one.”
Who knows when, but Feng Qiuhuang suddenly appeared behind Ouyang Shuo and spoke.
Looking at the setting sun, Ouyang Shuo kept silent and did not say anything.
… That afternoon, Xie Shi called to see Ouyang Shuo, “I agree with your suggestion.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded. Actually, Xie Shi did not have a choice, and he asked, “Can you send an elite force to sneak attack their grain transport group?”
To break the Qin army grain path was the key to winning this battle.
However, Ouyang Shuo had just arrived here. Even if he studied history books, he did not understand the exact situation of the battle and needed Xie Shi to give him his answer.
Xie Shi’s answer really disappointed Ouyang Shuo, “It’s really difficult, the Qin army is swarming toward Shouyang. On the roads are all Qin troops, so to sneak attack it is as hard as climbing the heavens.”
Ouyang Shuo kept silent.
A huge army had the difficulties of a huge army, but they also had their benefits – they were not so easy to sneak attack.
Xie Shi continued, “Late last night, the spy in the Qin army said that they are making big moves. Not only did they kill Zhu Xu, but they also removed Murong Chui and Yan Chang. Most crucially, Fu Jian appointed Wuqi as chief commander. Other than that, there was Wei Yan, Hua Xiong, and Zhao Zhuang. It seems like the player forces are taking control of the army.”
Ouyang Shuo nodded; the actions of Di Chen and the others were just as he had expected. If they did not know how to use these advantages, Di Chen would not be fit to be his opponent.
The only thing that surprised Ouyang Shuo was that Fu Jian actually allowed Wuqi to be the chief commander.
Wasn’t Fu Jian afraid? Maybe because he was afraid, so he did not care. He acted without the restraint; he just wanted to win.
Hence, the pressure on the East Jin camp grew greater and greater.
If Ouyang Shuo knew that there were five thousand more officers that moved into the Qin army, his head would probably swell.
Compared to Di Chen, there was a limit to the things that Ouyang Shuo could do. Looking at the 80 thousand Jin army, he could not do much. Xie Xuan was also the creator of the north house army, so even if Ouyang Shuo wanted to stick a general in, the north house army generals would not be happy.
This was the natural deficit of the East Jin camp.
Leaving the tent, Ouyang Shuo was thinking of a way to solve the problem. “Forget it; let’s just go and ask Wen He.”
At the key moment, it was best to use Jia Xu.
In Ouyang Shuo’s tent, Jia Xu, Huo Qubing, Ma Chao, Wang He, his other men, as well as Feng Qiuhuang, Wufu, and Gong Chengshi had all gathered together.
Since Jia Xu was present, Gong Chengshi did not bring his strategist, Jushou. The summoning talisman that Ouyang Shuo gave Gong Chengshi was not effective, and he summoned a civil servant.
Compared to the Yanhuang Alliance, the Shanhai Alliance general formation was far weaker. Apart from the Great Xia Dynasty, the other three territories did not have any huge names.
This battle was becoming tougher and tougher.

"value": "Chapter 859: Mural. Live Forever.\nJust inside the cabin was a staircase leading down. Upon entering, Bai Xiaochun couldn't see Song Que, but did catch a glimpse of Master God-Diviner at the bottom of the stairs.\nHe hurried forward and then climbed cautiously down the stairs, which put him on the first deck below the main deck!\nThe instant he stepped onto deck 1, he caught sight of both Song Que and Master God-Diviner, looking around with wide eyes.\nThe fact that they were both there unharmed caused Bai Xiaochun to breathe a sigh of relief. Without any hesitation, he hurried over to their side.\nDeck 1 wasn’t very large, and much like the main deck, was completely empty, except for another staircase off in the distance, leading further down. However, the bulkheads were covered with a massive mural!\nIt depicted the sky. It was not an ordinary blue sky, but rather, looked more like an ocean covered with waves. In fact, were it not for the occasional clouds floating about, Bai Xiaochun wouldn’t even have been able to tell that it depicted a sky.\nMost shocking of all was that the enormous mural also depicted a huge hand. The hand occupied nearly half of the sky, and was pushing down from it toward the land below!\nFurthermore, he experienced a sensation of utter despair, as though this hand contained the power… to destroy the world!!\nThe ground in the mural was parched and cracked. Standing upon it were three astonishing giants, whose expressions didn’t contain even a hint of the fear of death. All of the giants’ hands were stretched up to fight back against the enormous hand descending from the sky!\nThere was nothing else in the mural except for that. Bai Xiaochun had no idea exactly what it meant, nor did Song Que or Master God-Diviner. However, it was a shocking sight to look at.\nA long moment passed. Bai Xiaochun was the first to come to his senses. Face ashen, he backed up a few steps, mind spinning with both fear and pain.\n“How can a mural have such shocking power!? It stabs you all the way to the heart and soul!!” At this point, he realized that Song Que and Master God-Diviner were just standing there trembling, their eyes bloodshot and filled with despair. Therefore, he swished his sleeve and sent a burst of power into them.\nSong Que shivered, blood oozing out of his mouth as he regained his senses. He staggered backward, his expression one of confusion. As for Master God-Diviner, his cultivation base wasn’t even close to the level of Song Que’s right now, so he coughed up a mouthful of blood and sagged in place.\n“What kind of mural is this!?!?” he said, gasping for breath and not daring to look at it again.\nAt this point, Bai Xiaochun looked at his companions and, realizing that Master God-Diviner was a bit closer, edged over to his side. “This place is too weird!” he said. “Let’s go back. We can look for a way off the galleon back on the main deck. I have the feeling things will only get more terrifying the further down you go!”\nHowever, even as the words left Bai Xiaochun’s mouth, Song Que suddenly burst into motion, heading directly toward the stairs leading to deck 2. It only took him a moment to reach them, whereupon he instantly began to climb down. Master God-Diviner did the same thing, completely ignoring Bai Xiaochun. Bai Xiaochun reached out and grabbed Master God-Diviner, but the moment he did, Master God-Diviner spun in place, a vicious expression on his face as he let out a soundless howl.\nAs he did, a green-skinned, long-fanged ghost face appeared on top of Master God-Diviner’s face. Bai Xiaochun felt a blast of power pushing his hand away, and then Master God-Diviner was gone down the stairs!\nBai Xiaochun was shaken, and an unsightly expression could be seen on his face. His heart was also starting to pound. After all, his words from moments ago had actually been a test!\nHe had noticed on the main deck that something odd was going on, and decided to see if he could figure out what it was. Obviously, this galleon was controlling both Master God-Diviner and Song Que!\n“That green-skinned, long-fanged ghost just now… looked exactly like the one on that flag outside!”\nWith that, he turned to go back up the stairs to the main deck, only to find that… the staircase was gone!\nGoosebumps broke out all over him, and his face turned as ashen as death. All of a sudden, this place seemed even more sinister than before, and his heart was pounding so hard and loud it was like a drum.\n“What do I do, what do I do!?” All he could do was grip tight the command medallion the gravekeeper had given him. That was where all his hope lay.\n“I'm the Hell-Emperor’s Master! There aren’t any ghosts or souls in this world that would dare to provoke me!!” Scowling on the verge of tears, he tried to work up some confidence by pulling out a tongue of multi-colored flame. Then, he gritted his teeth and headed toward the staircase leading to the next deck.\nIt was really too terrifying to be alone. Furthermore, he couldn’t just sit around and watch Song Que and Master God-Diviner be controlled.\n“Dammit. If I had known things would turn out like this, I would have gone back to the River-Defying Sect alone!” Regret pricking at his heart, he advanced cautiously toward the staircase, at the bottom of which… was deck 2!!\nAs soon as he arrived, he exercised the utmost caution possible. He rotated his cultivation base and sent some divine sense out in all directions in the hopes of detecting anything unusual. He absolutely did not want to be surprised by anything like that mural.\nHowever, deck 2 was a bit different than he had imagined. There didn’t seem to be anything dangerous about it all. Furthermore, it was a lot bigger than deck 1.\nThere were no murals, only flickering, yellow candlelight that made the area a bit dim.\nFurthermore, right in the middle of the deck, there was a rocking chair!\nIt sat there, still and unmoving, seemingly completely ordinary in nature. Right in front of the rocking chair were two corpses which were little more than skeletons!!\nThey were on their knees in front of the chair, one corpse apparently that of a man, the other, a woman. One skeleton appeared to be made of gold, the other crystal. Although they were kneeling, from their posture, it looked like they had been embracing each other.\nThe mere sight caused Bai Xiaochun’s heart to seize with fear. To top it all off, Song Que and Master God-Diviner were standing motionless right in front of the two corpses.\n“Are they going to get fused together too!?!?!?” Bai Xiaochun had no idea what was going on, but he was convinced that this place was terrifying and bizarre beyond reason.\nSomething seemed very strange about the whole situation, and it had his heart pounding. After studying the scene for a moment, his gaze slid from Song Que and Master God-Diviner to the corpse with the golden skeleton.\nAfter looking at it more closely, his eyes widened dramatically!\n“That's the aura of the Undying Live Forever Technique!! It’s… the manifestation of the complete Undying Codex!!” Bai Xiaochun’s adam's apple bobbed up and down with fear as waves of astonishment crashed around in his mind. He was by no means mistaken. After all, he cultivated the Undying Codex of the Undying Live Forever Technique, just like the Blood Ancestor and this golden skeleton!\n“If this golden skeleton mastered the Undying Codex, then… the corpse with the crystal skeleton must have cultivated….” Almost immediately, he realized that the corpse with the crystal skeleton still had abundant life force left in it, as if it were the type of thing that could live forever!!\n“The Live Forever Codex!!” Bai Xiaochun had known from the very beginning that the Undying Live Forever Technique was broken up into the Undying Codex and the Live Forever Codex. However, he had never encountered the latter, only the former. Never could he have imagined that he would unexpectedly encounter two corpses that had both cultivated the Undying Live Forever Technique!!\nBut then, a chill ran up his spine, and his hair began to stand on end as… the previously unmoving rocking chair… suddenly began to rock back and forth!!\nFurthermore, it was just possible to make out the shadow of a person sitting in it…."

第859章
船舱内，是一条通往下方一层的楼梯，白小纯进来时，已看不到了宋缺，只能看到下方楼梯尽头，神算子的身影一闪而过。
白小纯赶紧迈步，踏着楼梯向下小心翼翼的走去，很快的就到了尽头处，到了这鬼舟的第一层！
就在他踏入这第一层的刹那，他一眼就看到了宋缺与神算子，二人此刻睁大了眼，正好奇的打量四周。
白小纯看到二人没事，也松了口气，快走几步到了二人身边，目光也随之一扫，在这整个一层扫过。
这第一层范围不小，可却诡异的是空旷无比，与甲板也都相差无几，在不远处，还有一条通往下方的楼梯，除此之外，就没了。
画中有天空，那天空不是蔚蓝，而是如海面般，有层层波澜，若非是有云层朵朵，白小纯一时都看不出来那是天空。
而最惊人的，是这巨大的画中，天空中赫然有一只巨大的手掌，这手掌太大了，占据了近乎一半的天空，似正在从天而降，向着大地拍下！
仅仅是看到画面，白小纯都觉得心神轰鸣，仿佛身临其境，感受到了一股难以形容的威压，扑面而来。
大地上，一片干枯，地面存在了无数裂缝，而在地面上，此刻站着三个似乎惊天动地的巨人，这三个巨人神色内带着视死如归的神情，每个人都抬起一只手，似乎要去抵抗那苍穹落下的手掌！
画面内，只有这些，而整个一层，也只有这一副巨大的画，白小纯看不懂，宋缺与神算子也看不懂，可他二人一样，此刻心神被这画所吸引，掀起大浪。
好半晌，白小纯是第一个苏醒的，他面色苍白，呼吸急促的退后几步，只觉得脑海嗡鸣不断，更是头痛欲裂，目中露出惊惧。
！” 白小纯吸气平复时，注意到宋缺与神算子那边，此刻身体颤抖，眼中血丝弥漫，表情挣扎中带着绝望，他立刻袖子一甩，化作一股大力落在二人身上。
顿时宋缺全身一震，苏醒过来，嘴角溢出鲜血，踉跄的退后几步，目中带着骇然，一旁的神算子，修为本就不如宋缺，此刻狂喷鲜血，面色苍白到了极致，都站不稳身子，整个人萎顿下来时，其恐惧感最为强烈。
！” 神算子急促的喘着粗气，不敢再去看第二眼。
“这里太诡异了，我们还是出去吧，在甲板上，找找办法离开，我总觉得这里越是向下，就越是头皮发麻！”
神算子也是一晃，竟与宋缺一样，对白小纯这里毫不理会，直奔下方楼梯，白小纯眼看如此，目中猛的一闪，右手蓦然抬起，一把抓向神算子，可就在他抓到神算子的刹那，神算子猛的回头，神色狰狞，向着白小纯发出无声的咆哮。
在他咆哮的瞬间，竟在他的面孔上，浮现出了一张鬼脸，这鬼脸正是青面獠牙，吼声直接就在白小纯心神内爆开，白小纯面色一变，只觉得一股大力从手中传来，刹那间神算子竟挣脱开来，直奔楼梯，消失无影！
这一幕，让白小纯身体震动，面色难看的同时，内心咯噔一下，他之前的话语，是在试探！
在甲板上他就察觉不对劲，此刻试探之下，立刻就看出，神算子与宋缺，明显是在神智上，被这舟船操控！ ！
“青面獠牙……是那面旗帜！”
他猛然转身，正要顺着下来的楼梯回到甲板，可在回头看去的瞬间，白小纯脚步一顿，通往上面的楼梯……消失了！
这就让白小纯脑海嗡的一声，面色煞白的同时，全身鸡皮疙瘩都起来了，只觉得这四周越发阴森，那种感觉，让他心脏“咚咚”的剧烈跳着，象擂鼓一样。
“怎么办，怎么办啊！” 白小纯着急了，只能死死的抓住守陵人给他的令牌，将全部希望都放在上面。
！” 白小纯哭丧着脸，给自己打气的同时，更是取出一团多色火，拿在手中给自己壮胆，犹豫再三，他狠狠咬牙，低吼中向着通往下层的楼梯跑去。
实在是他自己一个人在这里，太过恐惧，且无论如何，他也没法眼睁睁的看着宋缺与神算子就这么的被控制了。
“该死的，早知道我一个人回逆河宗了！” 白小纯心底哆嗦，懊悔的同时，顺着楼梯，更为小心的慢慢走下，渐渐到了尽头后，出现在了……这鬼舟的第二层！
在进入这第二层的瞬间，白小纯的警惕就骤然爆发，全身修为运转的瞬间，神识也刹那散开，覆盖整个第二层，但凡有丝毫变故，他都可以马上察觉，更是打定主意，绝不看壁画。
可这第二层，与白小纯所想的不大一样，这里没有明显的危机，且这第二层的范围，比第一层还要大了一些。
四周的墙壁上，也没有了壁画，只有黄色的烛光，将这第二层映照的有些昏暗。
至于中间区域，存在了一张摇椅！
这摇椅一动不动的放在那里，看起来毫不起眼，可在摇椅的前方，却是存在了两副骸骨，血肉早已消散，剩下的只是骨架！
这两副骸骨，彼此相对跪在那里，能看出生前是两个男性，他们一个是通体金色，一个是通体如水晶一般，虽是彼此对跪，可却依靠的很近，仿佛生前就彼此抱在一起。
原本这并非恐怖，可诡异的是……这两副抱在一起的骸骨，他们的头部……竟融合在了一起，显然还没有彻底融合完，而是融合了一半，可越是这样，就越是惊人，如同怪物！
！ 这就让白小纯在看到后，内心震颤，倒吸口气，此刻他也看到了宋缺与神算子，发现他们二人，竟都站在那两副骸骨身边，一动不动。
可就在他心脏急跳的瞬间，忽然的，白小纯这里猛的意识到有些不对劲，他的目光瞬间，就从宋缺与神算子那里移开，又一次的落在了那金色的骸骨身上。
仔细一看后，他的面色，前所未有的猛变起来！
白小纯喉结都被震的上下滚动了几下，脑海掀起滔天大浪，他绝不会看错，毕竟他也修炼了不死卷，无论是当年的血祖，还是他自己，又或者是眼前这金色的骸骨，修炼的都是不死长生功的不死卷！
“如果金色骸骨是不死卷大成，那么……那水晶般的骸骨，莫非是……”白小纯呼吸倏的急促起来，目光瞬间看去时，这一次，他仔细感受后，立刻就察觉到，在那水晶骸骨上，存在了浓郁的生机，仿佛有长生之意！
！” 白小纯顿时就有了明悟，他早就知道不死长生功分为不死卷与长生卷，而他始终没有得到长生卷，修炼的都是不死卷，可他无论如何也没想到，居然在这里，看到了修炼长生卷之人的骸骨！
！ 这就让他从心底产生了寒意的同时，更是发毛了，可就在他这里恐惧害怕时，忽然的……那原本一动不动的摇椅，居然……自行的摇晃起来！
！

Chapter 859: Mural. Live Forever.
Just inside the cabin was a staircase leading down. Upon entering, Bai Xiaochun couldn't see Song Que, but did catch a glimpse of Master God-Diviner at the bottom of the stairs.
He hurried forward and then climbed cautiously down the stairs, which put him on the first deck below the main deck!
The instant he stepped onto deck 1, he caught sight of both Song Que and Master God-Diviner, looking around with wide eyes.
The fact that they were both there unharmed caused Bai Xiaochun to breathe a sigh of relief. Without any hesitation, he hurried over to their side.
Deck 1 wasn’t very large, and much like the main deck, was completely empty, except for another staircase off in the distance, leading further down. However, the bulkheads were covered with a massive mural!
It depicted the sky. It was not an ordinary blue sky, but rather, looked more like an ocean covered with waves. In fact, were it not for the occasional clouds floating about, Bai Xiaochun wouldn’t even have been able to tell that it depicted a sky.
Most shocking of all was that the enormous mural also depicted a huge hand. The hand occupied nearly half of the sky, and was pushing down from it toward the land below!
Furthermore, he experienced a sensation of utter despair, as though this hand contained the power… to destroy the world!!
The ground in the mural was parched and cracked. Standing upon it were three astonishing giants, whose expressions didn’t contain even a hint of the fear of death. All of the giants’ hands were stretched up to fight back against the enormous hand descending from the sky!
There was nothing else in the mural except for that. Bai Xiaochun had no idea exactly what it meant, nor did Song Que or Master God-Diviner. However, it was a shocking sight to look at.
A long moment passed. Bai Xiaochun was the first to come to his senses. Face ashen, he backed up a few steps, mind spinning with both fear and pain.
“How can a mural have such shocking power!? It stabs you all the way to the heart and soul!!” At this point, he realized that Song Que and Master God-Diviner were just standing there trembling, their eyes bloodshot and filled with despair. Therefore, he swished his sleeve and sent a burst of power into them.
Song Que shivered, blood oozing out of his mouth as he regained his senses. He staggered backward, his expression one of confusion. As for Master God-Diviner, his cultivation base wasn’t even close to the level of Song Que’s right now, so he coughed up a mouthful of blood and sagged in place.
“What kind of mural is this!?!?” he said, gasping for breath and not daring to look at it again.
At this point, Bai Xiaochun looked at his companions and, realizing that Master God-Diviner was a bit closer, edged over to his side. “This place is too weird!” he said. “Let’s go back. We can look for a way off the galleon back on the main deck. I have the feeling things will only get more terrifying the further down you go!”
However, even as the words left Bai Xiaochun’s mouth, Song Que suddenly burst into motion, heading directly toward the stairs leading to deck 2. It only took him a moment to reach them, whereupon he instantly began to climb down. Master God-Diviner did the same thing, completely ignoring Bai Xiaochun. Bai Xiaochun reached out and grabbed Master God-Diviner, but the moment he did, Master God-Diviner spun in place, a vicious expression on his face as he let out a soundless howl.
As he did, a green-skinned, long-fanged ghost face appeared on top of Master God-Diviner’s face. Bai Xiaochun felt a blast of power pushing his hand away, and then Master God-Diviner was gone down the stairs!
Bai Xiaochun was shaken, and an unsightly expression could be seen on his face. His heart was also starting to pound. After all, his words from moments ago had actually been a test!
He had noticed on the main deck that something odd was going on, and decided to see if he could figure out what it was. Obviously, this galleon was controlling both Master God-Diviner and Song Que!
“That green-skinned, long-fanged ghost just now… looked exactly like the one on that flag outside!”
With that, he turned to go back up the stairs to the main deck, only to find that… the staircase was gone!
Goosebumps broke out all over him, and his face turned as ashen as death. All of a sudden, this place seemed even more sinister than before, and his heart was pounding so hard and loud it was like a drum.
“What do I do, what do I do!?” All he could do was grip tight the command medallion the gravekeeper had given him. That was where all his hope lay.
“I'm the Hell-Emperor’s Master! There aren’t any ghosts or souls in this world that would dare to provoke me!!” Scowling on the verge of tears, he tried to work up some confidence by pulling out a tongue of multi-colored flame. Then, he gritted his teeth and headed toward the staircase leading to the next deck.
It was really too terrifying to be alone. Furthermore, he couldn’t just sit around and watch Song Que and Master God-Diviner be controlled.
“Dammit. If I had known things would turn out like this, I would have gone back to the River-Defying Sect alone!” Regret pricking at his heart, he advanced cautiously toward the staircase, at the bottom of which… was deck 2!!
As soon as he arrived, he exercised the utmost caution possible. He rotated his cultivation base and sent some divine sense out in all directions in the hopes of detecting anything unusual. He absolutely did not want to be surprised by anything like that mural.
However, deck 2 was a bit different than he had imagined. There didn’t seem to be anything dangerous about it all. Furthermore, it was a lot bigger than deck 1.
There were no murals, only flickering, yellow candlelight that made the area a bit dim.
Furthermore, right in the middle of the deck, there was a rocking chair!
It sat there, still and unmoving, seemingly completely ordinary in nature. Right in front of the rocking chair were two corpses which were little more than skeletons!!
They were on their knees in front of the chair, one corpse apparently that of a man, the other, a woman. One skeleton appeared to be made of gold, the other crystal. Although they were kneeling, from their posture, it looked like they had been embracing each other.
The mere sight caused Bai Xiaochun’s heart to seize with fear. To top it all off, Song Que and Master God-Diviner were standing motionless right in front of the two corpses.
“Are they going to get fused together too!?!?!?” Bai Xiaochun had no idea what was going on, but he was convinced that this place was terrifying and bizarre beyond reason.
Something seemed very strange about the whole situation, and it had his heart pounding. After studying the scene for a moment, his gaze slid from Song Que and Master God-Diviner to the corpse with the golden skeleton.
After looking at it more closely, his eyes widened dramatically!
“That's the aura of the Undying Live Forever Technique!! It’s… the manifestation of the complete Undying Codex!!” Bai Xiaochun’s adam's apple bobbed up and down with fear as waves of astonishment crashed around in his mind. He was by no means mistaken. After all, he cultivated the Undying Codex of the Undying Live Forever Technique, just like the Blood Ancestor and this golden skeleton!
“If this golden skeleton mastered the Undying Codex, then… the corpse with the crystal skeleton must have cultivated….” Almost immediately, he realized that the corpse with the crystal skeleton still had abundant life force left in it, as if it were the type of thing that could live forever!!
“The Live Forever Codex!!” Bai Xiaochun had known from the very beginning that the Undying Live Forever Technique was broken up into the Undying Codex and the Live Forever Codex. However, he had never encountered the latter, only the former. Never could he have imagined that he would unexpectedly encounter two corpses that had both cultivated the Undying Live Forever Technique!!
But then, a chill ran up his spine, and his hair began to stand on end as… the previously unmoving rocking chair… suddenly began to rock back and forth!!
Furthermore, it was just possible to make out the shadow of a person sitting in it….

His white robe waltzed in the wind.\nPay attention, he walked out on his two feet, and was not thrown out by the tower.\nWhat did this prove?\nIt proved that he has passed the test of the Tower, and proved his powerfulness!\nEveryone at the scene was stunned. Their brains were completely blank, as if they lost their souls.\nAfter some time, they finally regained their consciousness and gasped in shock.\n\"This person…. Sure is heaven defying!\"\n\"Unbelievable, the Tower of the Seventh Soul could not be broken by anyone for thousands of years, yet this person passed its test. How strong does he have to be to achieve this?\"\n\"My god, this person is truly insane. Even the first Hidden Dragon could not pass the test, yet he did it. This is too unbelievable!\"\nEveryone was extremely shocked as they stared at Ling Xian with astonishment in their eyes.\nEven Chu Xing He and the other completion levelled cultivators were surprised like never before!\nWhat could they do? What happened today was far too shocking. To pass the test of the tower was as difficult as to climb up to the sky. Nobody in the entire Trading Island could pass its test, yet Ling Xian had done it. Just how astonishing was this? It was not an exaggeration to say that this achievement could split earth and heaven!\nAfter moments of awe, complex expressions appeared on everyone's faces. There was shame, anger, unwillingness, and bitterness. Everyone's face was hurting from pain, as if they were slapped in the face.\nNo, not \"as if\", it's \"they were!\"\nEven though Ling Xian didn't actually hit them, when he walked out of the Tower, he definitely brandished his invisible palm and slapped them in the face!\nThis was because of their previous actions of mockery, taunting, and lack of trust. This was why they were now feeling bitter, exasperated, and angry!\nPity though, the truth was before their faces. No matter how mad they were, they could not speak of it. Because there was nothing else to say, and they didn't dare to say anything.\nEven the completion levelled cultivators were speechless. They merely gritted their teeth and let Ling Xian slap them silently. The leader, Chu Xing He, was especially insulted. At first, he had the venous plan of ruining Ling Xian's reputation and ending his Taosim journey.\nBut the result was that Ling Xian counterstruck, and they themselves were wounded spiritually and mentally. Goddamn!\nWhat a bastard!\nChu Xing He swore under his breath, the way he looked at Ling Xian was full of killer's intent.\nEveryone grew angrier the more they thought about it. They also felt humiliated and ashamed. With their poisonous stares, they wanted to match up there and shred Ling Xian into pieces.\nOne had to admit that they were really out of line. At first, they questioned Ling Xian and teased him with their ruthlessly words. And now, after Ling Xian proved himself and placed reality before these people, they were angry and annoyed. How was this not over the line?\nRecognizing this, Ling Xian's eyes glazed over. He originally wanted to let these people go but he changed his mind after sensing their vileness.\nIt was true that he was kind at nature and generous, but this didn't mean he wouold let himself be humiliated!\nWhoever provokes him will pay with their blood!\nThe Chu Clan purposely gave him a hard time and played the character of someone with power. They laughed at him and this alone had annoyed Ling Xian. Now that it was obvious that they were not going to apologize, his anger boiled.\n\"How does it feel? I am guessing these soundless slaps feel really nice?\"\nLing Xian grinned a sarcastic smile and dumped salt on everyone's wound, \"I seem to remember that before I entered the tower, everyone was questioning me. Now you are no longer doubting me? Or did you all become mute?\"\nThe moment his voice trailed off, their faces became increasingly aggressive.\n\"Young man, don't think that you can treat us lightly just because you passed the Tower's test.\" Chu Xing He's face was dark. \"You sure do not know how high the sky is. To tell you the truth, regardless of the result, I'm going to handicap you.\"\nPausing, he grinned, \"Pity. I didn't think you would actually pass the test and I cannot feel the satisfaction of mopping the ground with your reputation.\"\n\"Yeah, what a pity.\"\nAgainst Chu Xing He's threat, Ling Xian's expression was calm as ever, \"Not only did I not lose my reputation, you are all swollen in the face because of me.\"\n\"You!\"\nChu Xing He was infuriated as anger washed out of him, \"Xian Ling, or rather, Ling Xian, you are seeking death!\"\n\"I do not know if I'm seeking death,\" Ling Xian's lips curled up and he snickered, \"I do know that the Chu Clan is destined for a sad ending.\"\n\"How presumptuous.\" Chu Xing He glanced at Ling Xian, \"Leave the treasure from the seventh level and I can spare you your life.\"\n\"Sorry, that I cannot do.\"\nLing Xian chuckled. He wasn't going to give that up regardless. With the treasure which made him control over the Tower, there was no way he was going to let them have that.\nThe treasure was the reason why he dared to challenge the Chu Clan!\n\"Okay, if you do not want to hand it over, then don't blame me for what's about to happen.\" Chu Xing He's expression was cold as he ordered, \"This man here is of the undefeatable realm. He has powerful capabilities. Completion levelled elders – do not be reckless. Let's attack together!\"\nHe then summoned his Qi and unleashed a horrifying ray of light! Seeing this, seven to eight completion levelled cultivators at the scene made their moves as well. They were all capable and thus, the techniques they displayed were very violent.\nWhen all their energy converged, the power of it all made the earth quake! To know that they were all completion levelled cultivators – making all their moves simultaneously was undeniably scary. No cultivator could defend!\nHowever, faced against the atmosphere of destruction, Ling Xian reacted strangely. Rather than showing fear, he smiled. Since he dared to challenge one of the five controlling forces, it meant he had the confident that they cannot handle him.\n[Tower, go!]\nLing Xian communicated with the Tower in his mind as a smile crawled up his lips.\nImmediately, a rainbow colored Tower stuck out of the ground and covered him.\nIn the next second, the combined attack of all the cultivators thrashed over and landed on Ling Xian. BOOMMM!\nAll debris were sent flying into the air as dust filled the space.\nThen, as the dust dissipated, a silhouette in white slowly walked out, unharmed and unhurt.\nEveryone's eyes widened in shock! Then, an arrogant and provoking statement was spoken out from Ling Xina's lips. Everyone almost puked in anger.\n\"Everyone, you are far too weak. Are you all here to scratch my itchy spots for me?\""

399.第399章
此刻夕阳西下，已是傍晚。
凌仙自七转镇魂塔中缓步走出，白袍随之轻舞，王者威严亦是随之降临。
注意，他是用双脚走出来的，而不是被镇魂塔轰飞出来的。
这证明了什么？
证明他成功通关了镇魂塔，也证明了他的强大！
故而，在场所有人都呆住了，每个人的大脑都是一片空白，仿佛失去了灵魂一般。
足足过了半晌，这些人才逐渐从震撼中回过神来，而后齐齐倒吸了一口凉气。
“此人……当真是逆天了！”
“不敢置信，千年来无人可打通的镇魂塔，居然被此人给打通了，这得是多么强大的实力才能做到？”
“我的天啊，此人未免也太变态了，连那个第一妖孽都破不了的镇魂塔，他竟然可以做到，这太不可思议了！”
在场众人震撼到了极点，望向凌仙的目光中充满了骇然之色。
就连楚星河等结丹期强者，亦是满脸震惊，被凌仙震撼到了无以复加的地步！
没办法，此事实在是太震撼了。
而在震惊过后，这些人脸上便出现了复杂的神色，有惭愧，有愤怒、有不甘、也有苦涩。
不，不是仿佛，应该就是！
虽然没有真的动手打他们脸，但是当凌仙走出七转镇魂塔后，那无疑是轮动了巴掌，狠狠抽他们的脸！
只因他们之前的尽情嘲讽、轻蔑，不信。 所以此刻，他们感受到了不甘，苦涩、愤怒！
可惜，事实已经摆在面前，纵然他们再如何愤怒，也说不出任何话来。 因为无话可说，也不敢多说。
尤其是楚星河这位一家之主，他一开始还想了一个歹毒的计谋，打算让凌仙颜面扫地，遭受到精神与肉体的双重打击。
然而结果，却是他与楚家众人遭到了凌仙强有力的回击，让他们精神受创，颜面无存！
这个混蛋！
楚星河暗骂一声，望向凌仙的目光充满了杀意。 在场众人越想越气，都觉得备受屈辱。
而后，他们的脸上再无一丝惭愧，反而是双眸怨毒地望着凌仙，恨不得立刻冲上去将他撕成碎片。 不得不说，他们真的太过分了。
一开始是他们质疑凌仙，出言嘲讽着他。 而此刻，当他将事实摆在众人面前时，这些人不仅没有感到羞愧，反而是对他心生怨恨，这难道还不过分？
见状，凌仙双眸一冷，原本他还打算就此放过这些人，可是感受到他们的怨毒，他忽然改变了主意。
他生性善良不假，为人大度也对，但这不代表他会任人欺辱！
谁敢招惹他，都必须要付出血的代价！
楚家先是刻意刁难他，而后又摆出高高在上的姿态，对他百般嘲讽，这让凌仙心头早就憋了一团火气。
眼下见这些人没有丝毫悔改之意，自然是让他怒火中烧。 “诸位感觉如何？
凌仙嘴角露出一抹讽笑，在众人伤口上撒盐，道：“我记得，在我进入镇魂塔之前，每个人都出言质疑过我，现在你们怎么不质疑了，难道是哑巴了？”
“小子，不要以为你打通了镇魂塔，便可以不把我们楚家放在眼里。”
楚星河面色阴沉，森然一笑道：“不知天高地厚的东西，实话告诉你吧，我早就下了决定，不管你是否能打通镇魂塔，我都会将你废掉。”
顿了顿，他冷笑道：“只可惜，我没想到你居然真的能够打通镇魂塔，没有让你体会到颜面扫地的感觉。”
“是啊，太可惜了。”
面对楚星河的威胁，凌仙神情依旧是那般平淡，轻笑道：“不仅没有让我颜面扫地，反而是你们的颜面荡然无存，被我打肿了脸。”
“你！”
楚星河勃然大怒，森然杀意如潮水般涌出，寒声道：“仙凌，又或是凌仙，你这是找死你知道么？”
“我是不是找死，我不知道。” 凌仙嘴角一扬，冷笑道：“但我知道，你们楚家，是注定要悲剧了。”
楚星河阴冷一笑，轻蔑的看着凌仙，道：“将你在第七层获得的宝物交出来，我可以放你离去。”
“那可真是抱歉，我交不了。”
凌仙淡淡一笑，他来之前便已经打定了主意，不会将自己获得宝物交给楚家。 眼下，他得到了镇魂塔的六成控制权，那便更不可能交出去了。
此物，可是他敢于挑战楚家的底气，也是他控制楚家的资本！
“好，既然你不交，那便休怪我不讲情面了。” 楚星河神情冰冷，深深看了凌仙一眼，旋即下令道：“此子乃是极境结丹，战力十分强大，诸位结丹期长老不可大意，随我一同出手！”
见状，在场七八个结丹期强者亦是随之出手，每一人的修为都很强大，施展出来的神通自然也是十分强横。 而当这些结丹强者的攻击汇聚到一起时，那般滔天神威，堪称惊天动地，无以伦比！
要知道，他们每个人都是结丹期强者，此刻一起出手，自然是强大的可怕，没有任何一个结丹期修士可以挡住！
然而，感受到那股足矣毁天灭地的气息，凌仙不仅神色如常，反而是露出了一抹轻笑。 他既然敢挑战五大霸主之一的楚家，自然是有底气，坚信这些人根本奈何不了自己。
“镇魂塔，出！”
凌仙嘴角扬起，旋即心念一动，与那座巍峨屹立的七层宝塔进行了沟通。
顿时，一片七彩光晕自塔顶弥漫而出，将他整个人笼罩在了里面。
下一刻，那股强大到十方惊颤的攻击来到近前，瞬间轰在了凌仙身上。
一声惊天巨响，扬起漫天烟尘。
而后，烟尘缓缓散去，一道白衣出尘的身影缓步走出，安然无恙，毫发无伤。
旋即，一句充满调侃意味的话语自凌仙口中传出，顿时让在场众人气得差点吐血。
“我说诸位，你们也太弱了，难道是在给我挠痒痒？”

Chapter 398: Power of the Tower Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Fish_Creek
The Sun had set, it was night time.
Ling Xian slowly walked out of the Tower of the Seventh Soul. His white robe waltzed in the wind.
Pay attention, he walked out on his two feet, and was not thrown out by the tower.
What did this prove?
It proved that he has passed the test of the Tower, and proved his powerfulness!
Everyone at the scene was stunned. Their brains were completely blank, as if they lost their souls.
After some time, they finally regained their consciousness and gasped in shock.
"This person…. Sure is heaven defying!"
"Unbelievable, the Tower of the Seventh Soul could not be broken by anyone for thousands of years, yet this person passed its test. How strong does he have to be to achieve this?"
"My god, this person is truly insane. Even the first Hidden Dragon could not pass the test, yet he did it. This is too unbelievable!"
Everyone was extremely shocked as they stared at Ling Xian with astonishment in their eyes.
Even Chu Xing He and the other completion levelled cultivators were surprised like never before!
What could they do? What happened today was far too shocking. To pass the test of the tower was as difficult as to climb up to the sky. Nobody in the entire Trading Island could pass its test, yet Ling Xian had done it. Just how astonishing was this? It was not an exaggeration to say that this achievement could split earth and heaven!
After moments of awe, complex expressions appeared on everyone's faces. There was shame, anger, unwillingness, and bitterness. Everyone's face was hurting from pain, as if they were slapped in the face.
No, not "as if", it's "they were!"
Even though Ling Xian didn't actually hit them, when he walked out of the Tower, he definitely brandished his invisible palm and slapped them in the face!
This was because of their previous actions of mockery, taunting, and lack of trust. This was why they were now feeling bitter, exasperated, and angry!
Pity though, the truth was before their faces. No matter how mad they were, they could not speak of it. Because there was nothing else to say, and they didn't dare to say anything.
Even the completion levelled cultivators were speechless. They merely gritted their teeth and let Ling Xian slap them silently. The leader, Chu Xing He, was especially insulted. At first, he had the venous plan of ruining Ling Xian's reputation and ending his Taosim journey.
But the result was that Ling Xian counterstruck, and they themselves were wounded spiritually and mentally. Goddamn!
What a bastard!
Chu Xing He swore under his breath, the way he looked at Ling Xian was full of killer's intent.
Everyone grew angrier the more they thought about it. They also felt humiliated and ashamed. With their poisonous stares, they wanted to match up there and shred Ling Xian into pieces.
One had to admit that they were really out of line. At first, they questioned Ling Xian and teased him with their ruthlessly words. And now, after Ling Xian proved himself and placed reality before these people, they were angry and annoyed. How was this not over the line?
Recognizing this, Ling Xian's eyes glazed over. He originally wanted to let these people go but he changed his mind after sensing their vileness.
It was true that he was kind at nature and generous, but this didn't mean he wouold let himself be humiliated!
Whoever provokes him will pay with their blood!
The Chu Clan purposely gave him a hard time and played the character of someone with power. They laughed at him and this alone had annoyed Ling Xian. Now that it was obvious that they were not going to apologize, his anger boiled.
"How does it feel? I am guessing these soundless slaps feel really nice?"
Ling Xian grinned a sarcastic smile and dumped salt on everyone's wound, "I seem to remember that before I entered the tower, everyone was questioning me. Now you are no longer doubting me? Or did you all become mute?"
The moment his voice trailed off, their faces became increasingly aggressive.
"Young man, don't think that you can treat us lightly just because you passed the Tower's test." Chu Xing He's face was dark. "You sure do not know how high the sky is. To tell you the truth, regardless of the result, I'm going to handicap you."
Pausing, he grinned, "Pity. I didn't think you would actually pass the test and I cannot feel the satisfaction of mopping the ground with your reputation."
"Yeah, what a pity."
Against Chu Xing He's threat, Ling Xian's expression was calm as ever, "Not only did I not lose my reputation, you are all swollen in the face because of me."
"You!"
Chu Xing He was infuriated as anger washed out of him, "Xian Ling, or rather, Ling Xian, you are seeking death!"
"I do not know if I'm seeking death," Ling Xian's lips curled up and he snickered, "I do know that the Chu Clan is destined for a sad ending."
"How presumptuous." Chu Xing He glanced at Ling Xian, "Leave the treasure from the seventh level and I can spare you your life."
"Sorry, that I cannot do."
Ling Xian chuckled. He wasn't going to give that up regardless. With the treasure which made him control over the Tower, there was no way he was going to let them have that.
The treasure was the reason why he dared to challenge the Chu Clan!
"Okay, if you do not want to hand it over, then don't blame me for what's about to happen." Chu Xing He's expression was cold as he ordered, "This man here is of the undefeatable realm. He has powerful capabilities. Completion levelled elders – do not be reckless. Let's attack together!"
He then summoned his Qi and unleashed a horrifying ray of light! Seeing this, seven to eight completion levelled cultivators at the scene made their moves as well. They were all capable and thus, the techniques they displayed were very violent.
When all their energy converged, the power of it all made the earth quake! To know that they were all completion levelled cultivators – making all their moves simultaneously was undeniably scary. No cultivator could defend!
However, faced against the atmosphere of destruction, Ling Xian reacted strangely. Rather than showing fear, he smiled. Since he dared to challenge one of the five controlling forces, it meant he had the confident that they cannot handle him.
[Tower, go!]
Ling Xian communicated with the Tower in his mind as a smile crawled up his lips.
Immediately, a rainbow colored Tower stuck out of the ground and covered him.
In the next second, the combined attack of all the cultivators thrashed over and landed on Ling Xian. BOOMMM!
All debris were sent flying into the air as dust filled the space.
Then, as the dust dissipated, a silhouette in white slowly walked out, unharmed and unhurt.
Everyone's eyes widened in shock! Then, an arrogant and provoking statement was spoken out from Ling Xina's lips. Everyone almost puked in anger.
"Everyone, you are far too weak. Are you all here to scratch my itchy spots for me?"

No matter what you say, she was still a little beauty, so how could she say such things out of nowhere?\nBut Chu Feng did not back off. He stopped his steps, put his hand under his chin, looked up and down with his eyes, and seriously evaluated the beauty in front of him.\nOnly then did he discover that Su Mei’s age may not be big, but her development was quite nice. It really heated people up with her good convexes and her beautiful curves.\n“You…You dare marry, but I don’t. Damn hooligan.”\nBeing looked by Chu Feng’s scoundrelly gaze, Su Mei could not keep up with that face. She finally discovered that she was too inexperienced in acting shamelessly with Chu Feng, and just with a few words from Chu Feng, she became completely frantic.\n“Oh? That’s great if you don’t marry, you really aren’t my type.” Chu Feng faintly smiled, as if a huge burden had been released and continued walking.\n“You…you bastard.” Su Mei’s angry voice came from behind him.\nTo have revenge on Chu Feng, Su Mei did not leave Chu Feng no matter what and she kept on sticking next to him. As they walked, Chu Feng attracted plenty of enmity.\nChu Feng really was helpless against Su Mei’s actions. On the topic of power, he was far from Su Mei, and even if he was stronger than Su Mei, there was no need to use fighting to drive the little beauty away right?\nSince he was helpless, Chu Feng might as well enjoy it a bit instead. Once in a while he admired Su Mei’s looks, once in a while he provoked her a bit, and that made her angrily stamp like thunder. She grabbed on Chu Feng’s arm and bit, madly hammered on Chu Feng’s back, and all along the road Chu Feng was quite injured.\nThere were very few people that recognized Su Mei, but with her beauty she could even be called as #1 in the inner court. Seeing Chu Feng bully a beauty like Su Mei, there were countless of young males that walked up and tried to fight for justice and pull a “hero saving the beauty”.\nBut what they got was Su Mei’s cursing, and there were even two people that had their ribs broken by Su Mei. When they saw the Wings Alliance badge on Su Mei’s chest, all of them could only curse their luck.\nThe two of them continued walking, and all the observers would focus their attention on them. Just like that, they became a strange scene. When they walked to the outer-circle, a large amount of people were gathered there and they became the focus point of people’s attention.\n“Look, isn’t that Chu Feng?”\n“There seems to be a person behind him, isn’t…isn’t that Su Mei?” Two bodies came out of the crowds, and it was the Dragon and Tiger brothers. Those two people were very afraid of Su Mei so they wanted to turn around and escape.\n“Bai Long Bai Hu, help me stop this bastard.” But when Su Mei called out to them, they knew that they couldn’t escape.\n“Brother, what should we do?”\n“Since it’s like this, we can only follow up and give that Chu Feng a bit of suffering. Or else Su Mei would not forgive us.”\nThe two of them looked at each other’s eyes and remembered Su Mei’s orders from all those days ago. They couldn’t help but grind their teeth and leap towards Chu Feng’s direction as they wanted to block him.\nChu Feng already noticed those two, and seeing as they were leaping towards him with unkind faces, he knew that they were going to attack him.\nIndeed, the brothers arrived in front of Chu Feng and stuck out with one fist and one kick aiming towards Chu Feng’s stomach and leg.\nThose two were in the 6th level of the Spirit realm, and although they didn’t use any martial skills, their strength and speed were top-class. If it was several days ago, Chu Feng would have no way of taking their attacks. But it was no longer hard now.\n*whoosh* Chu Feng did not back off and he went forward instead. With one foot touching the ground, his body suddenly spun and he went between the two people like the wind.\n“This aura, Spirit realm, 5th level?”\nThe brothers felt Chu Feng’s aura, but they were surprised because of that. How could he dodge the attacks of the two while only being in the 5th level of the Spirit realm? It did not make any sense.\nAt that instant, the two brothers felt that they had no more face. Even though Chu Feng was a talented person, the two of them were not ordinary either. How could they let a little person, who was only in the 5th level of the Spirit realm, toy with them, who were in the 6th level of the Spirit realm, in front of the all the eyes of the crowd?\nThinking to that point, the hearts of those two became colder. They changed their styles, and several palms stuck out at the same time. Countless of wind palms that was visible by the naked eye started flying towards Chu Feng. Those wind palms were densely compacted and there was almost no way of dodging them.\n“These two guys.”\nSeeing that the two of them actually used a rank 3 skill, Chu Feng started to frown. He was already unable to dodge against those skills, so he had to use his own skills to counter. But, there were too many observers, so if Chu Feng really used his skills, his true strength would also be exposed.\nAfter some thought, Chu Feng bit his teeth and poured the spiritual energy within his body onto his skin. He shifted towards the thinnest wind palms and he wanted to forcibly take on the attack.\nAfter some heavy sounds, Chu Feng got hit by three continuous palms. Although a wave of numbing pain came from his back, he did not suffer from any internal injuries so the Dragon and Tiger brothers did restrain themselves.\nBut, to fake the real, he threw himself forward, and at the same time that he landed on the ground he intentionally bit his lips and spit out some watery blood.\nIt terrified the brothers as they saw that Chu Feng fell on the ground and even spit out blood. They only wanted to get back some face and they did indeed restrain themselves. After all, they did not want to anger the person behind Chu Feng.\nAlthough they were afraid in their hearts, they saw Su Mei coming up so the two of them did not lend a hand towards Chu Feng and could only put on a face of evilness then said while pointing at Chu Feng, “Chu Feng, this is the price of offending Su Mei.”\n“Su Mei?!”\n“The sister of Elder Su Rou, Su Mei?”\nHearing the name “Su Mei” shocked the observing crowd. The name Su Mei were not unfamiliar to them because it was an extremely talented person that everyone knew.\nIt was said that Su Mei was an exceptional beauty and only entered the Azure Dragon School this year, so that was why very few people recognized her.\nBut because Su Mei was extremely talented, being in the 7th level at the age of 14, she was directly accepted as a inner court disciple as an exception. On the same day that she entered the inner court, she entered the Wings Alliance.\nAfter comparing Su Mei’s appearance and the Wings Alliance badge on her chest, everyone was more certain about her identity. At that moment, the crowd exploded because Su Mei’s name was really too well-known.\n“Ahh, who’s that boy? I see he’s dead if he offended Su Mei.”\n“I think I heard that the Dragon and Tiger brothers say that he was Chu Feng. Seeing his face, he should be that idiot. He really must not know how high the sky or how deep the ground is.”\nAt that instant, pretty much everyone thought that Chu Feng was dead. Because of Su Rou’s existence, Su Mei’s position in the inner court was not low.\nAlso with her beautiful appearance, she already became the spouse of choice for all sorts of geniuses within the inner court. Whoever dared to offend her was looking for death.\nSu Mei arrived in front of Chu Feng, and as she looked at him who was slowly climbing back up and also the pool of watery blood in front of them, her face changed greatly.\nShe suddenly spun around, and slapped the Dragon and Tiger brothers with two bangs then loudly bellowed, “Who let you hit him? Are you looking to die?!”"

第二十五章
楚枫完全想不到，这妮子看着这般清纯，竟然如此不矜持，怎么说也是个小美女，怎么能随便说出这种话？ “娶你，有何不敢。”
但是楚枫也不是吃素的，他干脆止住步伐，手托下巴，一双眼睛从上到下，认真的打量起眼前的尤物。
这才发现，别看着苏美年龄不大，不过发育的还算不错，前凸后翘，弧度饱满，简直让人**焚身啊。
“你....你敢娶，我还不嫁呢，臭流氓。”
被楚枫如此无赖的眼神打量着，苏美的脸上顿时挂不住了，她终于发现，想和楚枫耍无赖，她还是太嫩，不过当楚枫说出下一句后，她彻底抓狂了。
“喔，不嫁就太好了，你还真不是我的菜。” 楚枫淡然一笑，如释重负，这才继续向前赶路。
身后传来苏美暴怒的声音。
为了报复楚枫，苏美说什么都不肯与楚枫分道走，始终黏在楚枫身边，一路走来替楚枫拉足了仇恨值。
对于苏美的这种行为，楚枫实在无可奈何，论实力他远不是苏美的对手，何况就算他比苏美实力强，也不能用武力来赶走这个小美女吧。
无奈之下，楚枫干脆享受起来，时不时的欣赏一下苏美的美貌，时不时挑逗一番，搞得苏美经常暴跳如雷，抓住楚枫的胳膊一顿狂啃，对着他的背部一顿狂锤，一路走来楚枫也是伤痕累累。
认识苏美的人似乎很少，但是这般美貌绝对堪称内门第一人，看到楚枫欺负苏美这样的大美女，曾有无数少男青年走上前去，想来个打抱不平，英雄救美。
不过换来的，却是苏美的一顿臭骂，甚至有两个人被苏美直接打断了几根肋骨，而当看到苏美胸前那翼盟的勋章之后，几乎所有人都只能自认倒霉。
二人一路前行，凡是见到者都会注目观望，他们俩俨然成为了一道怪异的风景线，而当他们走到外围之时，大量的人群汇集于此，就更成为了人们瞩目的焦点。
“快看，好像是楚枫么。”
“他后边好像跟着一个人，那....那不是苏美么？” 两道身影自人群窜出，原来是龙兄虎弟，这两个人可是很怕苏美的，所以此刻掉头便要逃跑。
“白龙白虎，帮我拦住那个混蛋。” 可当身后传来苏美的呼喊之后，他们知道已是跑不掉了。
“大哥，怎么办？”
“既然如此，只能做做样子了，给那楚枫一点苦头，不然苏美不会放过咱们的。”
二人相视一眼，想起多日前苏美对他们交待的事，不由得咬了咬牙，身形一纵便想楚枫的方向拦截而去。
楚枫早就注意到了这两位，见他们迎面而来，并且面色不善，就知道他们肯定是要对自己出手。
果不其然，龙兄虎弟来到楚枫身前，一拳一腿同时击出，奔着楚枫的腹部以及腿部，便扫了过来。
这两位皆是灵武六重，就算不施展武技，力道与速度也堪称一流，如果换做前几日，楚枫绝对无法接下二人的攻击，但是换做现在，却并不难。
“嗖”楚枫并未退避，反而身形向前一纵，单脚点地，身体猛然旋转，如旋风一般自二人中间穿越而过。
“这气息，灵武五重？”
龙兄虎弟都感受到了楚枫的气息，可是正因如此，二人才会大惊，只是灵武五重的气息，怎会躲开他二人的攻击，这简直不合常理。
这一刻，兄弟二人感觉脸上无光，就算楚枫是天才，可他二人也非庸才，怎能让一个灵武五重的小子，在众目睽睽之下，将灵武六重的他们玩弄？
想到此处，二人顿时下了狠心，招式一变，数掌同时击出，无数道肉眼可见的气掌，开始对着楚枫飞奔而去，那气掌密密麻麻，几乎无法闪避。
“这两个家伙。”
见二人居然施展出了三段武技，楚枫眉头微皱起来，面对这种攻击他已是无法闪躲，必须以武技轰散，可是此处围观之人众多，楚枫若真的出手，他的实力也将暴露无遗。
思索一番之后，楚枫咬了咬牙，将体内灵气灌输到肌肤之上，身形向气掌最稀薄的方向一转，竟要硬生生的接下这道攻击。
几道闷响，楚枫连中三掌，虽然后背一阵麻痛，但却并未受内伤，可见龙兄虎弟还算留手的。
不过楚枫为了演戏演真，仍是用力的向前一扑，并且在倒地的同时，还故意咬破了自己的嘴唇，硬是吐出了一口血水。
见到楚枫倒卧在地还吐了血，可将龙兄虎弟吓了一跳，虽然他们是想挽回面子，但的确留了手，毕竟他们不敢得罪楚枫身后的人。
尽管内心害怕，可眼见苏美追赶了上来，二人也不好去搀扶楚枫，只好装作一副凶神恶煞的模样，指着楚枫道：“楚枫，这就是你得罪苏美师妹的代价。”
！ ！”
“莫非就是苏柔长老的亲生妹妹，苏美？”
听得苏美二字，围观之人皆是大惊，苏美这个名字他们可并不陌生，那简直是外门无人不知的天才。
传说苏美是个绝世美女，今年才拜入青龙宗，所以很少有人认识她。
可因为苏美天赋极强，十四岁已是灵武七重，被破例直接收为内门弟子，并且在进入内门的当日，便被加入了翼盟。
而对比一下苏美的模样，以及她胸口的翼盟标志，人们更是确定了她的身份，这一刻围观的人已是炸开了锅，因为苏美的名头实在是太响亮了。
“哎，那小子是谁啊，竟然得罪了苏美，我看他死定了。”
“刚刚听龙兄虎弟说，好像是叫楚枫，看那模样应该是个愣头青，真是不知天高地厚。”
这一刻，几乎所有人都觉得楚枫死定了，因为苏柔存在的原因，苏美在内门的地位可是不低。
再加上她绝美的面容，早就成为内门各路天才的择偶人选，谁敢得罪她，简直就是找死。
然而当苏美来到楚枫近前，看着正在自地上缓缓爬起的楚枫，以及其身前的一滩血水之后，却是脸色大变。
她徒然转身，对着身后的龙兄虎弟“啪啪”的就是两个嘴巴，而后大声吼道：“谁让你们打他的，找死啊？”

How could they let a little person, who was only in the 5th level of the Spirit realm, toy with them, who were in the 6th level of the Spirit realm, in front of the all the eyes of the crowd?
Thinking to that point, the hearts of those two became colder. They changed their styles, and several palms stuck out at the same time. Countless of wind palms that was visible by the naked eye started flying towards Chu Feng. Those wind palms were densely compacted and there was almost no way of dodging them.
“These two guys.”
Seeing that the two of them actually used a rank 3 skill, Chu Feng started to frown. He was already unable to dodge against those skills, so he had to use his own skills to counter. But, there were too many observers, so if Chu Feng really used his skills, his true strength would also be exposed.
After some thought, Chu Feng bit his teeth and poured the spiritual energy within his body onto his skin. He shifted towards the thinnest wind palms and he wanted to forcibly take on the attack.
After some heavy sounds, Chu Feng got hit by three continuous palms. Although a wave of numbing pain came from his back, he did not suffer from any internal injuries so the Dragon and Tiger brothers did restrain themselves.
But, to fake the real, he threw himself forward, and at the same time that he landed on the ground he intentionally bit his lips and spit out some watery blood.
It terrified the brothers as they saw that Chu Feng fell on the ground and even spit out blood. They only wanted to get back some face and they did indeed restrain themselves. After all, they did not want to anger the person behind Chu Feng.
Although they were afraid in their hearts, they saw Su Mei coming up so the two of them did not lend a hand towards Chu Feng and could only put on a face of evilness then said while pointing at Chu Feng, “Chu Feng, this is the price of offending Su Mei.”
“Su Mei?!”
“The sister of Elder Su Rou, Su Mei?”
Hearing the name “Su Mei” shocked the observing crowd. The name Su Mei were not unfamiliar to them because it was an extremely talented person that everyone knew.
It was said that Su Mei was an exceptional beauty and only entered the Azure Dragon School this year, so that was why very few people recognized her.
But because Su Mei was extremely talented, being in the 7th level at the age of 14, she was directly accepted as a inner court disciple as an exception. On the same day that she entered the inner court, she entered the Wings Alliance.
After comparing Su Mei’s appearance and the Wings Alliance badge on her chest, everyone was more certain about her identity. At that moment, the crowd exploded because Su Mei’s name was really too well-known.
“Ahh, who’s that boy? I see he’s dead if he offended Su Mei.”
“I think I heard that the Dragon and Tiger brothers say that he was Chu Feng. Seeing his face, he should be that idiot. He really must not know how high the sky or how deep the ground is.”
At that instant, pretty much everyone thought that Chu Feng was dead. Because of Su Rou’s existence, Su Mei’s position in the inner court was not low.
Also with her beautiful appearance, she already became the spouse of choice for all sorts of geniuses within the inner court. Whoever dared to offend her was looking for death.
Su Mei arrived in front of Chu Feng, and as she looked at him who was slowly climbing back up and also the pool of watery blood in front of them, her face changed greatly.
She suddenly spun around, and slapped the Dragon and Tiger brothers with two bangs then loudly bellowed, “Who let you hit him? Are you looking to die?!”

"value": "Chapter 131\nHowever, Xiaomi didn’t understand Squirrel and thought that he was playing with her. She was so happy that she could not even close her mouth.\nAt that moment, Lone Wolf returned languidly. Xiaomi’s eyes immediately lit up as she pointed at Lone Wolf and asked Fangzheng, “Big Baldy, is this a dog?”\n“Eh… I guess you can consider him a dog’s ancestor. Don’t be fooled by his size. He’s very gentle,” said Fangzheng with a chuckle.\nWhen Lone Wolf heard that, he raised his head high. When he saw Xiaomi holding the pine nuts in her hands and the squirrel on her shoulder, he suddenly had a sense of foreboding. The hoarder’s pine nuts had landed in the little girl’s hands! She spelled trouble! Therefore, the fellow immediately turned around in a bid to escape!\nThe result- Fangzheng dragged him back and placed Xiaomi on Lone Wolf’s back. Under various threats and promises, Lone Wolf finally bitterly became Xiaomi’s second playmate. He brought Xiaomi around the monastery and ran everywhere.\nFangzheng was naturally not worried leaving Lone Wolf and Squirrel to watch Xiaomi. The two animals were getting more intelligent by the day, and he always had a nagging feeling that it wouldn’t take long for them to turn into demon spirits.\nAnd at the same time, he could hear faint sobbing come from the temple hall.\nFangzheng came to the hall’s entrance and looked in. He saw Lu Shuangshuang kneeling on the ground, drowning in tears.\nFangzheng was somewhat surprised. The Buddhist scriptures he read did not teach him the art of consoling a crying woman. Should he go over? Or not?\nFangzheng rubbed his bald head and was completely lost.\n“Ding! Do you need help?” asked the System suddenly.\n“What do you think? If I had hair, I would have already pulled all of it out. A woman’s crying is truly terrifying. However, she is really sad. She resembles… me back when Old Dad One Finger departed. I can sense the pain in her heart, but I am completely unsure how I should console her,” thought Fangzheng.\n“The Thousand-armed and Thousand-eyed Guan Yin is a blessing to most people. For you especially, she is the best teacher. Perhaps you should seek her help,” said the System.\nFangzheng was stunned. “Seek Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s help? Can… I?”\nAlthough the System was very miraculous, Fangzheng was a little taken aback to seek Bodhisattva’s help on such a matter. Would it work?\n“You are not seeking Bodhisattva, but the powers that accompany the Thousand-armed and Thousand-eyed Guan Yin drawing on the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque. Just like the child-giving Guan Yin allows you to make a person pregnant, it is a unique guiding divine power,” explained the System.\n“Then how do I cast it?” Fangzheng had no clue at all.\n“As long as you are in the monastery, you can borrow the statue’s power to guide you into completing something you are incapable of. It can also strengthen a particular divine power of yours, such as helping people become pregnant or the Heavenly Eye divine power, etc. However, you are required to take the lead. The powers of the statues can only aid you. Use your divine power, A Golden Millet Dream, and you will understand,” said the System.\nFangzheng nodded and looked at Lu Shuangshuang. He took a deep breath and held his palms together. “Amitabha!”\nEver since Lu Shuangshuang entered the temple hall, she had remained motionless in her kneeling state. She believed that everything would go as she expected it to go and that she was only trying to numb herself or trying to find a place to secretly cry out to vent her anguish.\nHowever, when she knelt on the mat, voicing out her troubles and pains in mumbles, the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque in front of her suddenly lit up with golden light. But the golden light was faint and vanished after a flash as though it had been an illusion.\nLu Shuangshuang only treated it as her eyes playing tricks on her. However, when she looked at the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque from the corner of her eyes, the Thousand-arm Guan Yin’s eyes seemed to move. The compassionate and benevolent gaze left her heart palpitating! She looked up abruptly but discovered that the Guan Yin on the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque remained unchanged. It had not moved at all.\n“It must have been an illusion,” Lu Shuangshuang heaved a sigh of relief. At that moment, a Buddhist proclamation sounded from behind her, “Amitabha!”\nLu Shuangshuang subconsciously turned her head to look over but discovered that Fangzheng and Xiaomi were no longer around. Even stranger, the bodhi tree in the yard had bloomed! The snow had melted and lotus flowers were blooming in the monastery. The walls and everywhere inside the yard was filled with lotus flowers!\n“This!” Lu Shuangshuang had a look of shock plastered all over her face. She immediately ran out of the hall as she heard the sound of water splashing.\nLu Shuangshuang lowered her head and instead of seeing land beneath her feet, she saw water!\nShe looked up again, and the monastery was gone. All that was left was a lush bodhi tree!\nWhen she looked back, the Buddhist hall was gone too! All that was left was an endless pond of lotus flowers.\n“Where am I?” Lu Shuangshuang surveyed her surroundings. In her perplexed state, she questioned worriedly and fearfully.\nHowever, her surroundings were empty. No one answered her question.\nAt that moment, there was the sound of flowing water. Following that, a path parted at her feet. The path stretched deep into the lotus flower pond. Due to the lotus flowers blocking her view, she could not see what was inside.\nLu Shuangshuang bolstered her courage as she walked forward and pushed aside the lotus flowers. As she walked, the surrounding scenery changed. The lotus flowers began to turn sparse, and someone seemed to be talking ahead of her.\n“There’s someone!” Lu Shuangshuang was just about to run forward when a young bald monk suddenly appeared in front of her. He was dressed in white monk robes and effused a sense of cleanliness. Just a look at him calmed her panic and fear.\n“Master Fangzheng?” asked Lu Shuangshuang.\nFangzheng looked up slightly and nodded before shaking his head. He then looked up to the sky.\nLu Shuangshuang traced his gaze and looked up as well. She was dumbfounded the next moment!\nShe saw a white-robed monk sitting on a golden lotus throne high in the sky. Behind him were a thousand hands, all forming different hand seals or holding different treasures. The Dharmic presence was solemn, but it also effused kindness. The person was gargantuan, covering half the sky!\n“Guan Yin Bodhisattva?!” Lu Shuangshuang asked in disbelief.\n“Amitabha, it is This Penniless Monk. Lu Shuangshuang, you stepped into One Finger Temple, paid respect to This Penniless Monk and offered incense. This Penniless Monk will naturally help you with your pleas. However, the knot in your heart requires you to untie them yourself,” said Guan Yin Bodhisattva.\nLu Shuangshuang was looking up into the sky, and she did not realize that Fangzheng was below, racking his brains to think of what to say.\nEverything that happened was indeed a scene that he had set up with the statue’s guidance. He even vaguely knew what to do. However, the statue’s guidance was very ambiguous. Many things required him to think, ponder, and understand before he could complete everything.\nThe statue in the sky was not a mirage but a Dharma body manifestation projected from the real Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s statue. There was no sentience from the Bodhisattva and everything was left to Fangzheng’s control. But not only did this Dharma body provide guidance, with it also came a Bodhisattva’s aura. It could calm a person’s heart and refresh one’s mind.\nLu Shuangshuang looked at the Guan Yin Bodhisattva in the sky and sensed the peaceful aura that the Bodhisattva exuded. She vaguely felt as if she were near Han Xiaoguo’s sheltering arm. It was warm and dependable, as though she had found a shelter against a storm.\nLu Shuangshuang held her palms together as she bowed and said, “Bodhisattva, I implore you to help me.”\n“The person you wish to meet is up ahead. Go on,” Guan Yin Bodhisattva pointed ahead.\nLu Shuangshuang nodded and walked forward. After she passed through the dense lotus flowers, she was left stunned. There was no longer a lotus pond but a bustling city! Chapter 132\nChapter 132: The Romance Novel Cramming Monk\nA familiar college entrance, familiar streets, and familiar surroundings. Most importantly, there was a familiar person!\n“This is?” Lu Shuangshuang turned her head to see that the lotus flowers had vanished. She was already situated in a city.\n“Shuangshuang, you came.” Han Xiaoguo walked over as he looked passionately at Lu Shuangshuang.\nWhen Lu Shuangshuang saw this scene, tears immediately streamed down her cheeks. She asked, “Xiaoguo, is all of this real?”\n“Does it matter? What’s important is that we have met again, isn’t that so?” asked Han Xiaoguo.\nLu Shuangshuang nodded as she drew nearer to Han Xiaoguo’s chest. She asked in a whisper, “Xiaoguo, I’m so lonely after you left. I’m so afraid. The responsibility is so great. It’s as though the entire world is collapsing down on me. It’s so tiring.”\n“I know. I have seen all the suffering you have undergone. But Shuangshuang, you promised me that you would take good care of Xiaomi. You have to let her grow up healthily. You also promised to lead a happy life, didn’t you?” asked Han Xiaoguo.\nLu Shuangshuang said bitterly, “I want that to happen too, but I can’t do it… Boohoo! I’m so sad without you by my side…”\n“Here.” Han Xiaoguo held Lu Shuangshuang’s hand, leading her to a tree to sit down. Then, he whispered, “Do you know something? I have never once left your side. I have been by your side all this time. In fact, if you calm down, you will be able to sense my existence. I’m a star in the sky, from where I will watch and protect you forever. You aren’t alone and you never will be.”\n“Is- Is what you said all real?” Lu Shuangshuang widened her eyes at Han Xiaoguo.\nHan Xiaoguo firmly looked into her eyes and said, “Yes! As real as pearls!”\n“Pfft. I believe you. You have lied to me my entire life with that sentence of yours.” Lu Shuangshuang jumped into Han Xiaoguo’s embrace. She cried as she laughed.\nHowever, Lu Shuangshuang did not know that Fangzheng was about to go mad soon!\n“It’s true that one only regrets not acquiring enough knowledge when the time for it comes! I didn’t watch a lot of romance dramas or read that many romance novels in the past…” Fangzheng was grumbling incessantly. As he cast A Golden Millet Dream, he held his cell phone and searched for similar romance drama scenes like Lu Shuangshuang was experiencing. Then, he would use the lines from the show in Lu Shuangshuang’s dream.\nHaving to multitask was draining. Fangzheng was already sweating bullets. Worst of all, all of this completely eluded him!\nThankfully, Bodhisattva was guiding him. It reached deep into Lu Shuangshuang’s memories regarding Han Xiaoguo. Then, Fangzheng infused them into the conversation while he learned on the go. With the augmentation from the Buddha statue and A Golden Millet Dream, the effects Fangzheng wanted were barely accomplished.\nAt last, Lu Shuangshuang finally seemed to think it through. The trouble he was going through was not for nothing!\nFinally, under Han Xiaoguo’s coaxing, Lu Shuangshuang finally sorted out her thoughts. She found energy somewhere inside of her as she said confidently, “Don’t worry. I will live on happily on your behalf! You will forever live in my heart to the ends of time. I do not care if this is a dream or not, I will believe that you are in my heart!”\nHan Xiaoguo was taken aback.\nFangzheng was taken aback as well. Following that, he was enlightened as he laughed out loud. Han Xiaoguo laughed as well.\nFollowing that, the surrounding scenery shattered. Fangzheng said loudly, “Amitabha. Congratulations, Patron!”\nLu Shuangshuang saw everything in front of her vanish. In the time it took to blink, everything in front of her had changed! The city scenery vanished, and she was still kneeling in the hall. There was silence all around except for the sound of wind. The faint incense fragrance made her feel calm and peaceful.\nWhen she heard Fangzheng’s Buddhist proclamation, Lu Shuangshuang stood up and looked back at Fangzheng. She politely said, “Master, thank you for pointing out the right path for me!”\nFangzheng shook his head and said, “Patron, you are smart. All This Penniless Monk did was to give you a slight nudge in the correct direction.”\nFangzheng shook his head and said, “Buddha only guides people to do good. It’s not important if you believe in Him or not. Patron, for you to get things off your chest, This Penniless Monk has already earned merit from it. This Penniless Monk should be the one thanking you.”\n“Heh heh, Master, you must be joking. You are a master worthy of respect!” Lu Shuangshuang said respectfully.\nFangzheng shook his head and said, “I do not dare be addressed as master. Patron, you can call me Venerable Fangzheng, on account of me upholding the precepts.”\n“Mas- Venerable Fangzheng, you are being modest.” Just as Lu Shuangshuang’s voice faded, she heard Xiaomi’s happy laughter coming from outside. She immediately beamed radiantly and asked, “Who is Xiaomi playing with?”\nLu Shuangshuang was stunned. Fangzheng had actually left her child in the care of someone else? How could he do that? What if she was kidnapped? Lu Shuangshuang immediately panicked and just as she was about to run out to figure out what was happening, she saw a huge white wolf walk in. It was the size of a calf, and it had slender eyes. It was clear from a glance that it was a wolf and not a dog!\n“Such a big wolf?!” Lu Shuangshuang was truly given a fright, and she turned even more worried. However, Lu Shuangshuang was puzzled. The wolf appeared a little depressed. What was happening?\nLu Shuangshuang looked behind and saw Xiaomi tugging at the large white wolf’s tail. She was on a wooden plank, seemingly skiing on the snow! On her shoulder was a tiny squirrel who was squeaking away. It was as though it was urging for the large white wolf to go faster and not slack off…\nUpon seeing this scene, Lu Shuangshuang was completely dumbfounded. Were these still animals? Those expressions and acts were as good as humans’! Were they demonic spirits?!\n“Amitabha, these are the two special patrons that This Penniless Monk mentioned. Well, just like you, they are devotees of this monastery. One of them is a wolf and the other is a squirrel. Don’t worry. They are very kind,” Fangzheng suddenly came to Lu Shuangshuang’s side and said.\nLu Shuangshuang nodded in a daze. Her mind was already blank. She discovered that each thing she encountered on the mountain today was more fascinating than the other. Each of them challenged her understanding of the world. Yet, all of it was real."

第131章
不过小米粒听不懂，只当小松鼠在跟她玩，乐的小丫头嘴都合不上了。
就在这时，独狼懒洋洋的回来了，小米粒眼睛顿时一亮，指着独狼问方正道：“大光头，这是狗么？”
“嗯……算是狗的祖宗吧。 你别看他个头大，温柔着呢。”
方正笑呵呵的对小米粒道。 独狼闻言，高高的仰起头，再看看小米粒手上的松子，肩膀上的松鼠，突然有种不好的预感，守财奴的松子都落在这丫头手里了，肯定没好事！ 于是这货抬腿扭屁股就想开溜！
方正一把将其拖回来，然后将小米粒放在了独狼的背上，威逼利诱之下，独狼终于苦逼的成了小米粒的第二个玩伴，带着小米粒出了寺院，四处乱跑去了。
有独狼和松鼠看着小米粒，方正自然不担心，这两个家伙的智商越来越高了，方正总觉得，他们距离成精不远了。
而与此同时，佛堂里，忽然传出一声低声哭泣的声音！
方正来到佛堂门口，往里看去，只见鲁双双跪在地上，哭的稀里哗啦的，。
方正也有点懵，他度过的佛经里可没教他怎么劝导女人哭，过去？ 不过去？
方正摸摸光头，完全没有概念。
“叮！ 需要帮忙么？” 系统忽然问道。
“你觉得呢？ 我要是有头发，现在都拔光了……女人哭，好可怕。 不过，她真的很伤心，就好像……好像当初一指老爹走的时候的我。
方正心道。 “千手千眼观音对于别人来说，是祈福，对于你来会说，则是最好的导师。 或许，你该请求她帮忙。”
系统道。 方正愕然：“请观音菩萨帮忙？
虽然系统很神奇，但是请菩萨帮忙，这种事情，方正也有点懵……这能行么？
“不是求菩萨，而是万佛牌上的千手千眼观音画像所附带的能力。 正如同送子观音，可以让你可以让别人怀孕一般，这只是一种独特的引导神通。”
“那如何施展？” 方正完全没有概念。
“只要你在寺院当中，就可以借助神像的力量，来引导你完成一些你不会的事情，或者强化你的某一门神通，例如帮人怀孕，天眼神通等。 不过这些还是以你为主导，神像的力量，也只是辅助而已。
方正点点头，看向鲁双双，深吸一口气，双手合十：“阿弥陀佛！”
鲁双双自从进了佛堂，就跪在那里一动不动，她本以为一切就如同她想的那般，自我麻醉而已，或者偷偷哭一场发泄一下而已。
然而，当她跪在蒲团上，呢喃出自己心里的困惑、痛苦的时候，前方的万佛牌突然亮起了一道金光。 金光很淡，一闪即逝，宛若幻觉。
鲁双双也只当是幻觉，可是余光看万佛牌的时候，那千手观音的眼睛好像动了一下，那怜悯、慈悲的目光，看得她心一颤！ 猛地抬头，却发现，万佛牌上的观音依然如故，并没有动过。
“一定是幻觉。” 鲁双双松了口气，就在这时，身后响起一声佛号：“阿弥陀佛！”
鲁双双下意识的回头看去，却发现方正和小米粒都不在了，更诡异的是，寺院里的菩提树竟然开花了！ 雪也融化了，接着一朵朵莲花在寺院里盛开，墙头、院子里，许多莲花！
“这……”鲁双双一脸的震惊之色，连忙跑出佛堂，哗啦一声，踩水声响起。
鲁双双低头看去，脚下竟然不是土地，而是水！
再抬头，寺院不见了，只剩下一棵无比茂盛的菩提树！
回头，佛堂也没了！
“我这是在哪？” 鲁双双环顾四周，迷茫中带着几分紧张和恐惧的问道。
然而四周只有一片空明，没有人回答她的问话。
就在这时，一阵流水声响起，接着一条路从他的脚下升起，路一直延伸到荷花塘的深处，由于荷花遮挡，看不到里面的东西。
鲁双双大着胆子往前走，推开荷花，走着走着，四周的景色变了……荷花开始变得稀少起来，前方似乎有人在说话。
鲁双双正要往前跑，前面突然多了一个光头小和尚，一身白净的僧衣，全身散发着一种通透的干净，只看了一眼，她烦乱、恐慌的心就平静了下来。
鲁双双问。
方正微微抬起头，点点头又摇摇头，仰头看天。
鲁双双跟着方正的目光抬头看向天空，下一刻，傻眼了！
只见天空中，一个黄金莲花宝座上，坐着一名白衣僧人，背后上千只手捏不同印诀，活着拿着不同的宝物，法相转严肃穆中，又透着和善！ 此人无比巨大，遮掩了半个天空！
！” 鲁双双不敢置信的问道。
“阿弥陀佛，正是贫僧。 鲁双双，你进入一指庙，拜贫僧以礼，供奉以香火，心中有诉求，贫僧自然帮你。 不过你心中的结还需要你自己去解开。”
鲁双双仰头看着天空，浑然没有发现，下面的方正正在绞尽脑汁，想着该怎么说呢。
这一切，的确是神像引导他布置出来的场景，甚至隐约中他也知道该怎么做。 但是神像的引导很模糊，很多东西都要他自己去想，自己去思考，自己去领悟才能完成一切。
天空中的神像不是虚幻的，而是真正的观音菩萨神像投影进来显化的法身，没有菩萨的意识，一切都要方正来操控。 而这法身提供的不仅仅是引导，还有那来自菩萨的气息，能够平抚人心，清净宁神的效果。
鲁双双看着天空中的观音菩萨，感受着菩萨散发的和善气息，依稀中仿佛靠近了韩啸国的臂弯当中，温暖、踏实，仿佛找到了避风的港湾一般。
鲁双双双手合十，行礼道：“恳请菩萨帮我。”
“你相见的人就在前面，去吧……”观音菩萨一指前方。
鲁双双点头，往前走去，穿过一片浓密的荷花丛，鲁双双愣住了！ 没有荷塘，眼前多了一片繁华的都市！
地132章
熟悉的大学校门，熟悉的街道、花草树木，重点是，还有一个熟悉的人！
“这里是？” 鲁双双回头看去，荷花不见了，她已经置身在都市当中。
“双双，你来了。” 韩啸国走了过来，深情的看着鲁双双。
鲁双双看着这一幅画面，顿时泪流雨下，问道：“啸国，这一切是真的么？”
“真的，假的，重要么？ 重要的是我们见面了，不是么？” 韩啸国问。
鲁双双点头，靠近了韩啸国的怀里，低声问道：“啸国，你走了，我好孤单，好怕……担子好重。 仿佛天塌下来似的……好累啊。”
“我知道，你受的苦我都看到了。 但是双双，你答应过我，你会照顾好小米粒，让她健康成长。 并且自己也会过的幸福的，不是吗？”
“来。” 韩啸国拉着鲁双双的手，来到一棵树下，坐下。
然后低声道：“知道么？ 我从来没有离开过你，我一直在你身边。 其实，只要你安静下来，就能够感受到我的存在。
“你……你说的都是真的？” 鲁双双瞪大眼睛看着韩啸国。
韩啸国坚定的看着鲁双双的双眼，道：“真的！ 比珍珠还真！”
“扑哧……我信你，这话你骗了我一辈子……”鲁双双扑进韩啸国怀里，笑了，同时也哭了。
然而鲁双双并不知道，现在的方正都快疯了！
“果然知识到用的时候方恨少啊！
一心两三用，累的方正满头大汗不说，更要命的是，这些东西完全是他的知识空白区！
好在有菩萨引导，带动了鲁双双记忆深处关于韩啸国的记忆，再融入方正现学现卖的对白，以及一梦黄粱神通和佛像的加持强化效果，勉强达到了方正想要的效果。
几分钟后，鲁双双不哭了，方正眼睛却红了，精神消耗太大了！
心头连续祈祷：“我的姑奶奶，你快点从心结中走出来吧，否则洒家要圆寂了！ 最终在韩啸国的安抚下，鲁双双终于想开了，重新焕发了精神，自信的道：“放心吧，我会带着你那一份快乐，快乐的生活下去的！ 你永远在我心里活着，不管到什么时候。
韩啸国懵了。
方正也懵了，随后恍然大悟，方正哈哈大笑起来。
随后四周的景色破碎，方正大喝一声：“阿弥陀佛，恭喜施主！”
鲁双双只见眼前的一切消失，一闭眼一睁眼的时间，眼前的一切都变了！ 城市景象消失了，她依然在佛堂当中跪着，四周宁静，只有风声。
听到方正的佛号声，鲁双双，起身，回头看着方正，恭敬的道：“多谢大师指点迷津！”
方正摇头道：“是施主悟性高，贫僧也只是帮你一把而已。”
方正摇头道：“我佛只是导人向善，信与不信，并不重要。 施主能走出心结，贫僧就赚了一笔功德，说回来，还得谢谢施主呢。”
“呵呵……大师说笑了。 您是一位值得尊敬的大师！” 鲁双双恭敬的道。
方正摇头道：“大师不敢当，施主可以叫我方正法师，大家以法为师就好。”
“大……方正法师谦虚了。” 鲁双双话音才落，就听到外面小米粒开心的笑声传来。
这怎么行？ 若是被人拐走了怎么办？ 鲁双双顿时急了，正要跑出去查看究竟。
只见一头大白狼走了进来，这狼如同牛犊子一般，狭长的眼睛，一看就是狼不是狗！ “这么大的狼？
只是鲁双双不明白了，这狼似乎有点郁闷啊，这是咋回事？ 鲁双双往后看去，只见小米粒拉着大白狼的尾巴，踩着一个小木板，在雪上化雪呢！
看到这一幕，鲁双双彻底傻眼了，这还是动物么？ 这表情，这举动，简直就是人啊！
！ “阿弥陀佛，这就是贫僧说的两位特别的施主，嗯，和施主一样，都是本寺院的香客。 一头是狼，一个是松鼠，放心他们很善良的。”
鲁双双呆愣的点着头，脑子已经当机了，她发现，今天上山后，遇到的事情，一件比一件离奇，一件比一件挑战她的认知底线。

Chapter 131
However, Xiaomi didn’t understand Squirrel and thought that he was playing with her. She was so happy that she could not even close her mouth.
At that moment, Lone Wolf returned languidly. Xiaomi’s eyes immediately lit up as she pointed at Lone Wolf and asked Fangzheng, “Big Baldy, is this a dog?”
“Eh… I guess you can consider him a dog’s ancestor. Don’t be fooled by his size. He’s very gentle,” said Fangzheng with a chuckle.
When Lone Wolf heard that, he raised his head high. When he saw Xiaomi holding the pine nuts in her hands and the squirrel on her shoulder, he suddenly had a sense of foreboding. The hoarder’s pine nuts had landed in the little girl’s hands! She spelled trouble! Therefore, the fellow immediately turned around in a bid to escape!
The result- Fangzheng dragged him back and placed Xiaomi on Lone Wolf’s back. Under various threats and promises, Lone Wolf finally bitterly became Xiaomi’s second playmate. He brought Xiaomi around the monastery and ran everywhere.
Fangzheng was naturally not worried leaving Lone Wolf and Squirrel to watch Xiaomi. The two animals were getting more intelligent by the day, and he always had a nagging feeling that it wouldn’t take long for them to turn into demon spirits.
And at the same time, he could hear faint sobbing come from the temple hall.
Fangzheng came to the hall’s entrance and looked in. He saw Lu Shuangshuang kneeling on the ground, drowning in tears.
Fangzheng was somewhat surprised. The Buddhist scriptures he read did not teach him the art of consoling a crying woman. Should he go over? Or not?
Fangzheng rubbed his bald head and was completely lost.
“Ding! Do you need help?” asked the System suddenly.
“What do you think? If I had hair, I would have already pulled all of it out. A woman’s crying is truly terrifying. However, she is really sad. She resembles… me back when Old Dad One Finger departed. I can sense the pain in her heart, but I am completely unsure how I should console her,” thought Fangzheng.
“The Thousand-armed and Thousand-eyed Guan Yin is a blessing to most people. For you especially, she is the best teacher. Perhaps you should seek her help,” said the System.
Fangzheng was stunned. “Seek Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s help? Can… I?”
Although the System was very miraculous, Fangzheng was a little taken aback to seek Bodhisattva’s help on such a matter. Would it work?
“You are not seeking Bodhisattva, but the powers that accompany the Thousand-armed and Thousand-eyed Guan Yin drawing on the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque. Just like the child-giving Guan Yin allows you to make a person pregnant, it is a unique guiding divine power,” explained the System.
“Then how do I cast it?” Fangzheng had no clue at all.
“As long as you are in the monastery, you can borrow the statue’s power to guide you into completing something you are incapable of. It can also strengthen a particular divine power of yours, such as helping people become pregnant or the Heavenly Eye divine power, etc. However, you are required to take the lead. The powers of the statues can only aid you. Use your divine power, A Golden Millet Dream, and you will understand,” said the System.
Fangzheng nodded and looked at Lu Shuangshuang. He took a deep breath and held his palms together. “Amitabha!”
Ever since Lu Shuangshuang entered the temple hall, she had remained motionless in her kneeling state. She believed that everything would go as she expected it to go and that she was only trying to numb herself or trying to find a place to secretly cry out to vent her anguish.
However, when she knelt on the mat, voicing out her troubles and pains in mumbles, the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque in front of her suddenly lit up with golden light. But the golden light was faint and vanished after a flash as though it had been an illusion.
Lu Shuangshuang only treated it as her eyes playing tricks on her. However, when she looked at the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque from the corner of her eyes, the Thousand-arm Guan Yin’s eyes seemed to move. The compassionate and benevolent gaze left her heart palpitating! She looked up abruptly but discovered that the Guan Yin on the Ten Thousand Buddha plaque remained unchanged. It had not moved at all.
“It must have been an illusion,” Lu Shuangshuang heaved a sigh of relief. At that moment, a Buddhist proclamation sounded from behind her, “Amitabha!”
Lu Shuangshuang subconsciously turned her head to look over but discovered that Fangzheng and Xiaomi were no longer around. Even stranger, the bodhi tree in the yard had bloomed! The snow had melted and lotus flowers were blooming in the monastery. The walls and everywhere inside the yard was filled with lotus flowers!
“This!” Lu Shuangshuang had a look of shock plastered all over her face. She immediately ran out of the hall as she heard the sound of water splashing.
Lu Shuangshuang lowered her head and instead of seeing land beneath her feet, she saw water!
She looked up again, and the monastery was gone. All that was left was a lush bodhi tree!
When she looked back, the Buddhist hall was gone too! All that was left was an endless pond of lotus flowers.
“Where am I?” Lu Shuangshuang surveyed her surroundings. In her perplexed state, she questioned worriedly and fearfully.
However, her surroundings were empty. No one answered her question.
At that moment, there was the sound of flowing water. Following that, a path parted at her feet. The path stretched deep into the lotus flower pond. Due to the lotus flowers blocking her view, she could not see what was inside.
Lu Shuangshuang bolstered her courage as she walked forward and pushed aside the lotus flowers. As she walked, the surrounding scenery changed. The lotus flowers began to turn sparse, and someone seemed to be talking ahead of her.
“There’s someone!” Lu Shuangshuang was just about to run forward when a young bald monk suddenly appeared in front of her. He was dressed in white monk robes and effused a sense of cleanliness. Just a look at him calmed her panic and fear.
“Master Fangzheng?” asked Lu Shuangshuang.
Fangzheng looked up slightly and nodded before shaking his head. He then looked up to the sky.
Lu Shuangshuang traced his gaze and looked up as well. She was dumbfounded the next moment!
She saw a white-robed monk sitting on a golden lotus throne high in the sky. Behind him were a thousand hands, all forming different hand seals or holding different treasures. The Dharmic presence was solemn, but it also effused kindness. The person was gargantuan, covering half the sky!
“Guan Yin Bodhisattva?!” Lu Shuangshuang asked in disbelief.
“Amitabha, it is This Penniless Monk. Lu Shuangshuang, you stepped into One Finger Temple, paid respect to This Penniless Monk and offered incense. This Penniless Monk will naturally help you with your pleas. However, the knot in your heart requires you to untie them yourself,” said Guan Yin Bodhisattva.
Lu Shuangshuang was looking up into the sky, and she did not realize that Fangzheng was below, racking his brains to think of what to say.
Everything that happened was indeed a scene that he had set up with the statue’s guidance. He even vaguely knew what to do. However, the statue’s guidance was very ambiguous. Many things required him to think, ponder, and understand before he could complete everything.
The statue in the sky was not a mirage but a Dharma body manifestation projected from the real Guan Yin Bodhisattva’s statue. There was no sentience from the Bodhisattva and everything was left to Fangzheng’s control. But not only did this Dharma body provide guidance, with it also came a Bodhisattva’s aura. It could calm a person’s heart and refresh one’s mind.
Lu Shuangshuang looked at the Guan Yin Bodhisattva in the sky and sensed the peaceful aura that the Bodhisattva exuded. She vaguely felt as if she were near Han Xiaoguo’s sheltering arm. It was warm and dependable, as though she had found a shelter against a storm.
Lu Shuangshuang held her palms together as she bowed and said, “Bodhisattva, I implore you to help me.”
“The person you wish to meet is up ahead. Go on,” Guan Yin Bodhisattva pointed ahead.
Lu Shuangshuang nodded and walked forward. After she passed through the dense lotus flowers, she was left stunned. There was no longer a lotus pond but a bustling city! Chapter 132
Chapter 132: The Romance Novel Cramming Monk
A familiar college entrance, familiar streets, and familiar surroundings. Most importantly, there was a familiar person!
“This is?” Lu Shuangshuang turned her head to see that the lotus flowers had vanished. She was already situated in a city.
“Shuangshuang, you came.” Han Xiaoguo walked over as he looked passionately at Lu Shuangshuang.
When Lu Shuangshuang saw this scene, tears immediately streamed down her cheeks. She asked, “Xiaoguo, is all of this real?”
“Does it matter? What’s important is that we have met again, isn’t that so?” asked Han Xiaoguo.
Lu Shuangshuang nodded as she drew nearer to Han Xiaoguo’s chest. She asked in a whisper, “Xiaoguo, I’m so lonely after you left. I’m so afraid. The responsibility is so great. It’s as though the entire world is collapsing down on me. It’s so tiring.”
“I know. I have seen all the suffering you have undergone. But Shuangshuang, you promised me that you would take good care of Xiaomi. You have to let her grow up healthily. You also promised to lead a happy life, didn’t you?” asked Han Xiaoguo.
Lu Shuangshuang said bitterly, “I want that to happen too, but I can’t do it… Boohoo! I’m so sad without you by my side…”
“Here.” Han Xiaoguo held Lu Shuangshuang’s hand, leading her to a tree to sit down. Then, he whispered, “Do you know something? I have never once left your side. I have been by your side all this time. In fact, if you calm down, you will be able to sense my existence. I’m a star in the sky, from where I will watch and protect you forever. You aren’t alone and you never will be.”
“Is- Is what you said all real?” Lu Shuangshuang widened her eyes at Han Xiaoguo.
Han Xiaoguo firmly looked into her eyes and said, “Yes! As real as pearls!”
“Pfft. I believe you. You have lied to me my entire life with that sentence of yours.” Lu Shuangshuang jumped into Han Xiaoguo’s embrace. She cried as she laughed.
However, Lu Shuangshuang did not know that Fangzheng was about to go mad soon!
“It’s true that one only regrets not acquiring enough knowledge when the time for it comes! I didn’t watch a lot of romance dramas or read that many romance novels in the past…” Fangzheng was grumbling incessantly. As he cast A Golden Millet Dream, he held his cell phone and searched for similar romance drama scenes like Lu Shuangshuang was experiencing. Then, he would use the lines from the show in Lu Shuangshuang’s dream.
Having to multitask was draining. Fangzheng was already sweating bullets. Worst of all, all of this completely eluded him!
Thankfully, Bodhisattva was guiding him. It reached deep into Lu Shuangshuang’s memories regarding Han Xiaoguo. Then, Fangzheng infused them into the conversation while he learned on the go. With the augmentation from the Buddha statue and A Golden Millet Dream, the effects Fangzheng wanted were barely accomplished.
At last, Lu Shuangshuang finally seemed to think it through. The trouble he was going through was not for nothing!
Finally, under Han Xiaoguo’s coaxing, Lu Shuangshuang finally sorted out her thoughts. She found energy somewhere inside of her as she said confidently, “Don’t worry. I will live on happily on your behalf! You will forever live in my heart to the ends of time. I do not care if this is a dream or not, I will believe that you are in my heart!”
Han Xiaoguo was taken aback.
Fangzheng was taken aback as well. Following that, he was enlightened as he laughed out loud. Han Xiaoguo laughed as well.
Following that, the surrounding scenery shattered. Fangzheng said loudly, “Amitabha. Congratulations, Patron!”
Lu Shuangshuang saw everything in front of her vanish. In the time it took to blink, everything in front of her had changed! The city scenery vanished, and she was still kneeling in the hall. There was silence all around except for the sound of wind. The faint incense fragrance made her feel calm and peaceful.
When she heard Fangzheng’s Buddhist proclamation, Lu Shuangshuang stood up and looked back at Fangzheng. She politely said, “Master, thank you for pointing out the right path for me!”
Fangzheng shook his head and said, “Patron, you are smart. All This Penniless Monk did was to give you a slight nudge in the correct direction.”
Fangzheng shook his head and said, “Buddha only guides people to do good. It’s not important if you believe in Him or not. Patron, for you to get things off your chest, This Penniless Monk has already earned merit from it. This Penniless Monk should be the one thanking you.”
“Heh heh, Master, you must be joking. You are a master worthy of respect!” Lu Shuangshuang said respectfully.
Fangzheng shook his head and said, “I do not dare be addressed as master. Patron, you can call me Venerable Fangzheng, on account of me upholding the precepts.”
“Mas- Venerable Fangzheng, you are being modest.” Just as Lu Shuangshuang’s voice faded, she heard Xiaomi’s happy laughter coming from outside. She immediately beamed radiantly and asked, “Who is Xiaomi playing with?”
Lu Shuangshuang was stunned. Fangzheng had actually left her child in the care of someone else? How could he do that? What if she was kidnapped? Lu Shuangshuang immediately panicked and just as she was about to run out to figure out what was happening, she saw a huge white wolf walk in. It was the size of a calf, and it had slender eyes. It was clear from a glance that it was a wolf and not a dog!
“Such a big wolf?!” Lu Shuangshuang was truly given a fright, and she turned even more worried. However, Lu Shuangshuang was puzzled. The wolf appeared a little depressed. What was happening?
Lu Shuangshuang looked behind and saw Xiaomi tugging at the large white wolf’s tail. She was on a wooden plank, seemingly skiing on the snow! On her shoulder was a tiny squirrel who was squeaking away. It was as though it was urging for the large white wolf to go faster and not slack off…
Upon seeing this scene, Lu Shuangshuang was completely dumbfounded. Were these still animals? Those expressions and acts were as good as humans’! Were they demonic spirits?!
“Amitabha, these are the two special patrons that This Penniless Monk mentioned. Well, just like you, they are devotees of this monastery. One of them is a wolf and the other is a squirrel. Don’t worry. They are very kind,” Fangzheng suddenly came to Lu Shuangshuang’s side and said.
Lu Shuangshuang nodded in a daze. Her mind was already blank. She discovered that each thing she encountered on the mountain today was more fascinating than the other. Each of them challenged her understanding of the world. Yet, all of it was real.

I bet I can recite this book. \" Xia Keke giggled as she looked at Song Yumei, \"Do you want to bet or not?\"\n\"You said that you can learn the Heaven's Path Scripture?\" Song Yumei felt that it was funny, nowadays men always liked to brag, especially in front of beautiful women, but this guy was bragging like that, it was really too stupid.\nXia Zhi nodded seriously, \"That's right. I can carry it when I'm 8 years old.\"\n\"If you lose the bet, will you disappear in front of me?\" Song Yumei asked indifferently.\n\"No problem.\" Summer promised, \"If I win, you have to let me hug you.\"\n\"What?\" Song Yumei's eyes flashed with a hint of annoyance, this guy was really a wishful thinking!\nXia Xia looked at Song Yumei with a regretful look: \"I originally wanted you to be my wife, but, you're wearing this kind of clothes, I don't know if your figure is good or not, if your figure is bad, I'll win you over to be my wife, then I'll be at a disadvantage, so I'll just hug you a bit, then I'll be able to determine whether your figure is good or not.\"\n\"Awesome, awesome! How dare you say that!\" This thought popped up in the minds of the group of boys watching the show from afar.\nSong Yumei was almost furious, there was actually such a person in this world? He was actually worried that she would suffer a loss if she became his wife? She, Song Yumei, was one of the four famous flowers in the capital. Countless young masters were chasing after her, but she did not pretend to be beautiful. Now, there was actually someone who was worried that she would suffer a loss because of her poor figure!\n\"Okay, you want to bet, right? That's fine, but if you lose, you have to jump into an unnamed lake! \" Song Yumei was really angry this time, this summer fella was too infuriating!\n\"No problem.\" Xia Chen agreed again, then handed the book to Song Yumei, \"Take a look, I'll recite it for you now.\"\nSong Yumei took the book and then lightly said: \"memorize it.\"\n\"The Dao exists in the Heavens, and the Dao is invisible ….\" Summer really began to recite.\nThe boys at the side were all wondering in their hearts, just what did this guy carry on his back? Like chanting.\nSong Yumei initially had a sneer on her face, but that sneer slowly disappeared and slowly became surprised. In the end, she was completely shocked.\nWhen she stopped reciting the scriptures in the summer, Song Yumei was still in shock, but she never would have thought that someone would actually recite the book. One must know that the words inside the book were all written in ancient script, and most people would never know about it, so she thought that she was only able to find the name of the book in the summer, after all, she often studied the book, but now, she understood that what she said in the summer was not bragging, they might really know it at the age of seven, they could recite at the age of eight, but how could that be possible?\n\"I'm done carrying my back, so let me hug you first!\" Xia Chen said then, and did something that caused public outrage. This guy actually didn't care whether Song Yumei agreed or not and directly hugged her!\n\"F * ck, he can even do that?\"\n\"Damn.

They wanted nothing more than to go up to that guy who called himself summer and give him a good beating before throwing him into the unknown lake to feed the fishes.\nBut after a few seconds, they discovered something even more tragic and infuriating. Not only was that guy still holding onto Song Yumei, he was actually still stroking her body. The most collapsing thing was, their goddess, the goddess-like Song Yumei, actually did not object!\nSong Yumei was naturally not against it, she was just shocked and did not react, and her summer movements were too fast, catching her off guard. However, when she suddenly felt a certain part of her body being attacked, she finally woke up.\nSong Yumei, who was being molested by Xia Chen, suddenly felt both ashamed and angry. Just as she was about to berate him, Xia Chen released her.\n\"You have a pretty good figure, just a little thin.\" Summer began.\n\"You!\" Song Yu was furious, she was actually assaulted by a man for no reason at all!\nHowever, at this moment, Xia Zhi said: \"Why don't you be my wife!\"\nSong Yu was so angry that she almost vomited blood, but she had already realized that this Xia fella was strange. At first he did not know how to make her bodyguard immobile, but then he could actually recite the Heavenly Dao Scripture, he was clearly not an ordinary person.\n\"Who the hell are you?\" Song Yumei quickly calmed herself down.\n\"Like I said, I'm called Xia. If you were my wife, I'd be your husband.\" Summer said, grinning.\n\"Why did you come to me?\" Song Yumei asked again. Previously, she thought that Xia Chen was also a student at school and wanted to court her, but now she understood that things shouldn't be as she had imagined.\n\"About that, actually, I have a question for you. But I'm worried that you won't tell the truth, so I want to turn you into my wife first so that you won't lie to me.\" Summer said seriously.\nSong Yumei snorted: \"If you have any questions, ask them immediately!\"\n\"Are you really called Song Yumei?\" Summer asked now.\n\"Do you think I shouldn't be called Song Yumei?\" Song Yumei retorted snappily, someone actually asked that question, it was really strange.\n\"Oh, looks like you are really called Song Yumei.\" Xia Chen said as if he was talking to himself, then asked: \"Then do you know someone called Song Yumei?\"\nSong Yumei's eyes flashed with surprise, but quickly returned to normal. Then she asked with a strange look: \"What did you say?\""

第547章
夏天一本正经的回答道：“我其实不轻的，肯定比你重。”
“把书还给我。” 宋yù媚的语气又变得淡漠起来。
“这书真的不好看，我看过，很无聊的。” 夏天却没把书还给宋yù媚的意思。
宋yù媚语气里带着一丝嘲讽的味道：“我相信你看过这个书名，我也相信你下了不少工夫，不过我对你没兴趣。”
夏天有点郁闷，他算是听明白了，这个宋yù媚不相信他。
“喂，我们打个赌好不好？” 夏天现在挺喜欢打赌的，因为打赌可以赢老婆。
“赌什么？” 宋yù媚似乎对打赌也有点兴趣。
我赌我能把这本书背出来。” 夏天笑嘻嘻的看着宋yù媚，“你赌不赌啊？”
“你说你能背天道经？” 宋yù媚感觉有点好笑，这年头男人都喜欢吹牛，特别是喜欢在美nv面前吹牛，可这家伙吹成这样，也实在是太笨了点。
夏天却认真的点了点头：“没错，我八岁的时候就会背了。”
“若是你赌输了，是不是就会消失在我面前？”
“没问题。” 夏天一口答应，“要是我赢了，你要让我抱一下。”
“什么？” 宋yù媚眼里闪过一丝恼意，这家伙还真是异想天开呢！
夏天看着宋yù媚，有点遗憾的样子：“我本来是想让你给我当老婆的，可是呢，你穿着这样的衣服我不知道你身材好不好，万一你身材差，我把你赢过来当老婆的话，我就太亏了，所以呢，我就只抱你一下就好，那样我就能确定你身材到底好不好了。”
“牛啊，真牛，这话也敢说！” 一帮在远处看戏的男生都冒出这个念头。
他居然还担心她给他当老婆会吃亏？ 搞没搞错啊，她宋yù媚可是京城四朵名花之一，京城无数的公子少爷追求她，可她都不假辞sè，现在居然有人担心她身材差，觉得会吃亏！ “好，你想赌是吧？
那也行，不过你若是输了，就得给我跳进未名湖去！” 宋yù媚这回真是生气了，这叫夏天的家伙，实在是太气人了！
“没问题。” 夏天又是一口答应，然后把那本书递给宋yù媚，“你看着吧，我现在背给你听。”
宋yù媚倒是接过了书，然后淡淡的说道：“背吧。”
“天有道，道无形……”夏天还真开始背了起来。
一旁的那些男生心里嘀咕，这家伙背的都是什么东西呢？ 像念经似的。
宋yù媚刚开始脸上带着一丝冷笑，但渐渐的，这丝冷笑却消失了，而是慢慢变得惊讶，到最后，乃是彻底震惊起来。
当夏天停止背诵天道经时，宋yù媚还在震惊之中，她怎么也想不到，居然真有人能把这本书背出来，要知道，这本天道经乃是一本古籍，里面的字，都是用古文写成的，一般人根本就不可能认识，她本以为夏天只是用别的办法打听到她这本书的名字而已，毕竟她经常在这研究这本书，可现在，她才明白，夏天刚刚所说的那些，还真不是吹牛，人家可能真的七岁就认识，八岁能背诵，可，可这怎么可能呢？ “我已经背完了，先让我抱一下吧！”
夏天这时开口说道，然后，就做了一件引起公愤的事情，这家伙居然也不管宋yù媚答不答应，直接就动手将她抱住了！
“日啊，这也行？”
“我擦，这xiǎo子真抱了我的仙nv！”
“丫丫的，我也想抱啊！”
“为什么抱着美nv的那个人不是我啊！”
“保镖呢，保镖怎么还不出现，快把这丫扔进湖里去！”
一群人义愤填膺的，恨不得上前去把那个自称夏天的家伙狠揍一顿，然后把他扔进未名湖喂鱼，唔，至于湖里有没有食人鱼，那倒是不需要去考虑了。
可几十秒之后，他们发现一件更让他们悲愤的事情，那家伙抱着宋yù媚还没放开不说，居然还在她身上摸来摸去的，最崩溃的是，他们的nv神，长得跟仙nv一样的宋yù媚，居然也没表示反对！
宋yù媚自然不是真的不反对，她只是一时沉浸在震惊之中，没有反应过来，而夏天的动作又实在太快，让她有点措手不及，不过，当她突然感觉某个关键部位遭到袭击之时，终于清醒了过来。
发现自己正被夏天非礼的宋yù媚，一时羞愤jiāo加，正想出声喝斥，夏天却在这时松开了她。
“你身材挺好的嘛，只是稍微瘦了点点。” 夏天这时开口说道。
“你！” 宋yù媚气结，她居然就这么莫名其妙的被一个男人给非礼了！
夏天却又在这时冒了一句出来：“不如你给我当老婆吧！”
宋yù媚气得差点吐血，不过她此刻已经意识到，这个叫夏天的家伙有古怪，先是不知道怎么把她的保镖nòng得不能动了，然后居然还能背诵天道经，显然不是普通人。
“你到底是什么人？” 宋yù媚很快就让自己平静下来。
“我刚说了啊，我叫夏天，要是你给我当老婆的话，我就是你老公了。” 夏天笑嘻嘻的说道。
“你为什么来找我？” 宋yù媚又问道，之前她本以为夏天也是学校里的学生，是来凑近乎想追求她的，但现在她已经明白，事情应该不是她想象的那样。
“这个啊，其实我有个问题想问你，不过我担心你不说实话，所以想先把你变成我老婆，这样你就不会骗我了。” 夏天一本正经的说道。
宋yù媚轻哼一声：“你有什么问题快问吧！”
“你真的叫宋yù媚吗？” 夏天这时开口问道。
“你觉得我不该叫宋yù媚吗？” 宋yù媚没好气的反问，居然还有人问这种问题，真是莫名其妙。
“哦，看来你真是叫宋yù媚。” 夏天自言自语般说了一句，然后又问道：“那你还认识一个叫宋yù媚的人吗？”
宋yù媚眼中闪过一丝讶异，但很快恢复正常，然后一副有点奇怪的样子问道：“你说什么？”

Chapter 547
Xia Xia replied seriously: "I'm actually not light, I'm definitely heavier than you."
"Give me the book." Song Yumei's tone became indifferent again.
"This book is really not good to read. I've read it before, so it's really boring." However, he did not intend to return the book to Song Yumei in the summer.
Song Yumei's tone carried a hint of ridicule: "I believe that you've read this title before, and I believe that you've put in a lot of effort, but I'm not interested in you."
Xia Chen was a little depressed, he finally understood that this Song Yumei did not believe him.
"Hey, can we make a bet?" Summer now likes betting, because betting can win a wife.
"Betting on what?" Song Yumei also seemed to be interested in the bet.
"You don't believe I've read this book, do you? I bet I can recite this book. " Xia Keke giggled as she looked at Song Yumei, "Do you want to bet or not?"
"You said that you can learn the Heaven's Path Scripture?" Song Yumei felt that it was funny, nowadays men always liked to brag, especially in front of beautiful women, but this guy was bragging like that, it was really too stupid.
Xia Zhi nodded seriously, "That's right. I can carry it when I'm 8 years old."
"If you lose the bet, will you disappear in front of me?" Song Yumei asked indifferently.
"No problem." Summer promised, "If I win, you have to let me hug you."
"What?" Song Yumei's eyes flashed with a hint of annoyance, this guy was really a wishful thinking!
Xia Xia looked at Song Yumei with a regretful look: "I originally wanted you to be my wife, but, you're wearing this kind of clothes, I don't know if your figure is good or not, if your figure is bad, I'll win you over to be my wife, then I'll be at a disadvantage, so I'll just hug you a bit, then I'll be able to determine whether your figure is good or not."
"Awesome, awesome! How dare you say that!" This thought popped up in the minds of the group of boys watching the show from afar.
Song Yumei was almost furious, there was actually such a person in this world? He was actually worried that she would suffer a loss if she became his wife? She, Song Yumei, was one of the four famous flowers in the capital. Countless young masters were chasing after her, but she did not pretend to be beautiful. Now, there was actually someone who was worried that she would suffer a loss because of her poor figure!
"Okay, you want to bet, right? That's fine, but if you lose, you have to jump into an unnamed lake! " Song Yumei was really angry this time, this summer fella was too infuriating!
"No problem." Xia Chen agreed again, then handed the book to Song Yumei, "Take a look, I'll recite it for you now."
Song Yumei took the book and then lightly said: "memorize it."
"The Dao exists in the Heavens, and the Dao is invisible …." Summer really began to recite.
The boys at the side were all wondering in their hearts, just what did this guy carry on his back? Like chanting.
Song Yumei initially had a sneer on her face, but that sneer slowly disappeared and slowly became surprised. In the end, she was completely shocked.
When she stopped reciting the scriptures in the summer, Song Yumei was still in shock, but she never would have thought that someone would actually recite the book. One must know that the words inside the book were all written in ancient script, and most people would never know about it, so she thought that she was only able to find the name of the book in the summer, after all, she often studied the book, but now, she understood that what she said in the summer was not bragging, they might really know it at the age of seven, they could recite at the age of eight, but how could that be possible?
"I'm done carrying my back, so let me hug you first!" Xia Chen said then, and did something that caused public outrage. This guy actually didn't care whether Song Yumei agreed or not and directly hugged her!
"F * ck, he can even do that?"
"Damn. This boy really hugged my fairy!"
"Damn, I want to hug you too!"
"Why is it that the person who is hugging a beauty isn't me!"
"Where's the bodyguard? Why hasn't the bodyguard appeared yet? Quickly throw him into the lake!"
The group of people were filled with righteous indignation. They wanted nothing more than to go up to that guy who called himself summer and give him a good beating before throwing him into the unknown lake to feed the fishes.
But after a few seconds, they discovered something even more tragic and infuriating. Not only was that guy still holding onto Song Yumei, he was actually still stroking her body. The most collapsing thing was, their goddess, the goddess-like Song Yumei, actually did not object!
Song Yumei was naturally not against it, she was just shocked and did not react, and her summer movements were too fast, catching her off guard. However, when she suddenly felt a certain part of her body being attacked, she finally woke up.
Song Yumei, who was being molested by Xia Chen, suddenly felt both ashamed and angry. Just as she was about to berate him, Xia Chen released her.
"You have a pretty good figure, just a little thin." Summer began.
"You!" Song Yu was furious, she was actually assaulted by a man for no reason at all!
However, at this moment, Xia Zhi said: "Why don't you be my wife!"
Song Yu was so angry that she almost vomited blood, but she had already realized that this Xia fella was strange. At first he did not know how to make her bodyguard immobile, but then he could actually recite the Heavenly Dao Scripture, he was clearly not an ordinary person.
"Who the hell are you?" Song Yumei quickly calmed herself down.
"Like I said, I'm called Xia. If you were my wife, I'd be your husband." Summer said, grinning.
"Why did you come to me?" Song Yumei asked again. Previously, she thought that Xia Chen was also a student at school and wanted to court her, but now she understood that things shouldn't be as she had imagined.
"About that, actually, I have a question for you. But I'm worried that you won't tell the truth, so I want to turn you into my wife first so that you won't lie to me." Summer said seriously.
Song Yumei snorted: "If you have any questions, ask them immediately!"
"Are you really called Song Yumei?" Summer asked now.
"Do you think I shouldn't be called Song Yumei?" Song Yumei retorted snappily, someone actually asked that question, it was really strange.
"Oh, looks like you are really called Song Yumei." Xia Chen said as if he was talking to himself, then asked: "Then do you know someone called Song Yumei?"
Song Yumei's eyes flashed with surprise, but quickly returned to normal. Then she asked with a strange look: "What did you say?"

"value": "Chapter 135: Tiger Bone\n“What are the benefits of a Protector who holds a post?” Jiang Kuai asked.\nHe believed that most martial artists could not stand being restrained. Taking orders from others would be too indignant so there must have been enormous benefits to make others do it.\nChu Li shook his head and smiled. “There are no other benefits!”\n“Ah — ?” Jiang Kuai was surprised.\n“Other than being a little more stable, there are no other benefits,” said Chu Li.\n“This can’t be true.” Jiang Kuai frowned. “If there was no benefit, who would let others order him around?”\nChu Li smiled. “There may be one benefit: you can be promoted.”\n“Promoted… ” Jiang Kuai pondered.\nChu Li said, “Just like my Glory’s Will Courtyard. If you just joined, of course, you would have to start from the lowest level. If you did well, you will be promoted.”\n“We don’t practice martial arts to become an official!” Jiang Kuai scoffed.\nChu Li laughed. “Like the Glory’s Will Courtyard, there are Scribe Commanders, Protector Commanders, and Deputy Commanders. If you become the commander, you can order others around… Doing everything on your own, or with just a command, other people would do it for you. Which one is more comfortable?”\nJiang Kuai shook his head.\nAuthority was truly a great temptation. How many people could refuse it?\n“Ok, Brother Jiang Kuai, I’ve spoken until my mouth is dry. Now, give me an answer, are you joining the Public House?” asked Chu Li.\n“Can I believe you?” Jiang Kuai said, “Don’t tell me you are deceiving me to get me to join.”\nChu Li laughed despite himself. “To be honest if I wanted to harm you, do I need to waste so much energy in persuading you? There is no need for me to notify you, I can just watch from the side… What’s more, I have treated Brother Jiang Kuai sincerely. Otherwise, I just need to wait until they almost succeeded to come to your aid and by then, wouldn’t Brother Jiang Kuai feel grateful towards me? And by that time, do I still need to earnestly persuade you like this?”\nJiang Kuai revealed a small smile.\nThis indeed made him trust Chu Li more. If Chu Li wanted to scheme against him, he could just wait until he fell into a difficult situation to reach out and help him. Feeling grateful, Jiang Kuai would agree to join the Public House readily.\n“Husband, why not? Let’s join the Public House,” Su Yuting said softly.\nJiang Kuai glanced at her.\nSu Yuting could see that her husband was moved, but he could not put aside his pride to admit it. These words could only be said by her. Even if Jiang Kuai complains in the future, she couldn’t care about anything else, this was a rare opportunity!\n“Su Yuting, if we really are joining the Public House, our lives may not be as good as it is now!” Jiang Kuai sighed.\nSu Yuting smiled. “As long as we are together, anywhere is the same!”\nChu Li laughed. “Brother Jiang Kuai, the danger of living in the Public House is far lesser than how you currently are now!”\n“Haih… ” Jiang Kuai breathed out a long sigh and said slowly, “Very well, I’ll join the Public House!”\nChu Li clapped his hands in joy and laughed. “Congratulations Brother Jiang Kuai! You will not regret it!”\nJiang Kuai shook his head. “Who knows.”\n“There are numerous people who want to join the Public House, but how many people can really enlist in it?” Chu Li smiled. “Brother Jiang Kuai is oblivious to your good fortune! … Let’s move, return to the Public House straight away!”\n“No problem!” Jiang Kuai replied frankly.\nIn the early hours of the morning, the mist draped over the lake like a veil.\nChu Li breathed in the fresh, moist air and walked into the Stargazing Tower. Su Ru was standing in the main hall, wearing an apricot gown that brought out the features of her white jade face. She was smiling when she looked at him. “Was it successful?”\nChu Li smiled as well. “I was able to accomplish the mission!”\n“Good! Good!” Su Ru beckoned at him. “Hurry up and go to see Lady Xiao. She has been waiting for you!”\nThe two went up to the third floor. Xiao Qi was sitting cross-legged on the bed meditating. Her left arm’s plaster had been removed and one would not be able to see the injury from its surface appearance. She had her eyes closed, solemn and silent, like Guanyin sitting on the lotus.\nWhen Chu Li entered the third floor, her bright eyes opened.\nChu Li took out a jade box and handed it over with both hands. “My Lady, the Longevity Grass!”\nSu Ru took it and presented it to Xiao Qi.\n“Open it,” said Xiao Qi.\nSu Ru opened the box and inside was a green grass. At first glance, it was similar to the usual weed but it was four to five times thicker than weed. Its exuberant green illustrated its abundance of vitality and just by a single look, one could tell that it was not a normal item.\n“Now, Second Eldest Sister can be saved!” Xiao Qi sighed softly.\nChu Li shook his head. “It’s useless.”\nXiao Qi gave him a look of askance.\n“There’s the Vitality Sealing Finger so even ten Longevity Grass cannot save Second Lady!” said Chu Li.\n“Shut up!” Xiao Qi said bluntly, “Big Brother does not want to hear this!”\nChu Li sighed and nodded in resignation.\nWith his low position, Chu Li’s words carried little weight. He learned medical skills from Mulin for only a month, no matter what, he would not be able to win the trust of others.\n“My Lady, I recruited Jiang Kuai into the Public House!” Chu Li said.\n“Hmm—?” Xiao Qi’s bright eyes widened slightly.\nSu Ru laughed. “Really? Someone like Jiang Kuai can be recruited?”\nChu Li nodded with a smile. “He is different now from when he was in the past. He has a wife, so he wants to live a stable life. Moreover, Jiang Kuai offended Ren Public House and was almost killed by them.”\n“Jiang Kuai’s Light-body Technique is peerless. He will be useful.” Xiao Qi nodded subtly. “You managed to recruit him, you did a great job.”\nChu Li smiled. “It would be a pity if I did not enlist a talented guy like him to work for me.”\n“Go and get some rest. I will deal with everything else,” Xiao Qi said.\nChu Li gave a fist salute and turned to leave.\nXiao Qi studied the Longevity Grass, feeling the abounding vitality of it. Knowing that it was not fake, she closed the box, got up and went to Iron Eagle Island.\nIn the early morning hours, the Public House was usually exceptionally lively but this time it was more buoyant than usual. Boats on the lake came and went.\nXiao Qi and Su Ru set foot in the backyard garden of Iron Eagle Island, Xiao Tieying was practicing there. His palm energy diffused into the air and a raging purple gas surrounded his whole body. There was no one serving beside him.\nWhen he saw Xiao Qi approaching him, Xiao Tieying stopped his training in surprise. She must have had something urgent to tell him since she came over during this hour.\n“Big Brother, we got back the Longevity Grass,” Xiao Qi said.\nXiao Tieying was stunned momentarily and then, he was overjoyed. “We got it back?!”\nXiao Qi glanced at Su Ru. Su Ru presented the jade box before Xiao Tieying with both her hands.\nXiao Tieying opened the jade box and looked at its contents. He laughed instantly. “It really is the Longevity Grass!”\nHe could not help but caress the jade box, a warm yet cool feeling was felt from his palm and it made him calm down. He sighed. “Heaven would not fail a man. Second Younger Sister can be saved!\nXiao Qi nodded lightly.\n“Chu Li found it?”\n“Yes.”\n“Bravo, he really is awesome!”\n“However, Chu Li insists that Second Eldest Sister is affected by the Vitality Sealing Finger and that the Longevity Grass is useless to cure her!” said Xiao Qi.\n“Humph!” Xiao Tieying scoffed coldly, “He is truly stubborn!”\nXiao Qi shook her head. “Never mind, ignore him. Let Second Eldest Sister eat it as soon as possible.”\n“You’re right.” Xiao Tieying revealed a smiling face again. “I will give it to Second Younger Sister in the morning!”\nHe excitedly closed the jade box and mumbled, “This fellow is really capable, I have to reward him… advancing a rank again is a little bit too fast. Third Younger Sister, what do you think we should reward him with?”\n“Before this, you promised to raise his rank. How come you’ve changed your mind?” Xiao Qi frowned.\n“If it was someone else, advancing a rank is nothing, but Chu Li is currently rank four and it is shocking enough. If we increase his rank again, it will not be good for him too.” Xiao Tieying shook his head.\n“There is a tiger bone in the Public House… ” Xiao Qi said. “Reward him with this!”\n“The Spirit Tiger Bone?” Xiao Tieying revealed a pained expression. “This… ”\n“If Big Brother is really reluctant, then let him play with it for a while,” Xiao Qi said.\n“What is the use of the Spirit Tiger Bone to him?” Xiao Tieying hesitated and asked dubiously, “Could it be that he wants to eat it? But this thing cannot be made into a medicine!”\nThe Spirit Tiger Bone was extremely toxic. If it was made into a medicine and eaten, Chu Li would die instantly. He would suffer soaring killing intent and he would need to be sealed in a special item. Just a little touch and he would die in a snap. Killing intent can kill people imperceptibly, it was even more terrifying than a sword."

“有职护卫有什么好处？” 蒋槐问。
他觉得，练武之人多数受不得拘束，听别人命令行事太憋屈，一定有巨大的好处才能有人做。
楚离摇头笑道：“没有别的好处！”
“嗯——？” 蒋槐讶然。
楚离道：“除了稳定一点，没别的好处。”
蒋槐皱眉道：“如果没好处，谁会供人驱策？”
楚离笑了笑：“可能有一桩好处吧，能升官。”
“升官……”蒋槐沉吟。
楚离道：“像我的天灵院，你刚进来，当然得从最低层做起，如果做得好，再往上升。”
“练武的又不是当官的！” 蒋槐哼一声。
楚离笑道：“像天灵院，设有侍卫统领，护卫统领，副统领，你如果当上统领，自然可驱使别人，……凡事亲历亲为，还是一句吩咐，自有人替你做好，哪一个更舒服？”
蒋槐摇摇头。
权力还真是莫大的诱惑，有几个人能够拒绝？
楚离道：“好啦蒋兄，我嘴皮都干了，给一句痛快话吧，到底进不进国公府？”
“我能相信你吗？” 蒋槐道：“别是把我诓进去。”
楚离失笑：“说句实话，想害你，我还用费这么多口舌？ 何必来通风报信，在一旁看热闹就行，……再者说，我对蒋兄诚心相待，若不然，我只消在他们得手之际再出手，蒋兄你还不感恩戴德？ 还用我这么苦口婆心的劝？”
蒋槐露出一丝笑容。
这一点确实让他更相信楚离，如果楚离耍个心机，等自己落难再伸手，自己感激之下，也没什么可说的，直接就答应了。 “夫君，要不，就进国公府吧。”
舒玉婷轻声道。
蒋槐看向她。
舒玉婷看得出自己丈夫已经心动，只是抹不开脸面。 这话只能自己说，即使他将来会埋怨自己，也顾不得那么多了，机会难得！ “玉婷。
真要进去，说不定日子还不如现在呢！” 蒋槐叹道。
舒玉婷微笑道：“只要咱们在一起，在哪里都一样！”
楚离笑道：“蒋兄，在国公府的危险，远比你现在小得多！”
缓缓道：“罢了，就进国公府吧！”
楚离抚掌笑道：“恭喜蒋兄，蒋兄必不会后悔！”
蒋槐摇头：“谁又知道呢。”
“想进国公府的多不胜数，又有几人能进得来？” 楚离笑道：“蒋兄是身在福中不知福呐！
“没问题！” 蒋槐痛快答应。
清晨时分，薄雾如轻纱在湖面上舒卷。
楚离呼吸着清新湿润的空气，举步踏进观星楼。 苏茹正站在大厅，一身杏黄罗衫映得脸如白玉，笑靥如花看着他：“大功告成？”
楚离笑道：“幸不辱命！” “好！
好！” 苏茹招招手：“快去见小姐，小姐一直等着呢！” 二人登上三楼。
萧琪正盘膝坐在榻上调息，左臂的石膏已经拆去，外表看不出受伤，她轻阖眼帘，肃穆宁静，宛如观音坐莲花。
楚离一踏进三楼，她明眸睁开。
楚离把玉盒从怀里掏出，双手递上：“小姐，长生草！”
苏茹接过来，端到萧琪身前。
萧琪道：“打开。”
苏茹打开盒子。 里面是一株碧绿盈盈的青草，乍看与寻常野草形状相似，比野草粗壮了四五倍，盎然绿意流露出勃勃生机。 一看就知不是凡物。
“这下二姐有救了！” 萧琪轻轻叹道。
楚离摇摇头：“没用的。”
萧琪横他一眼。
楚离道：“有封元指，就是十株长生草也救不了二小姐！”
“闭嘴！” 萧琪淡淡道：“大哥不想听这些！”
楚离叹口气，无奈的点点头。
他人微言轻，医术只跟郭慕林学了一个月而已，再怎么也取信不了人。
“小姐，我把蒋槐招揽进府了！” 楚离道。
萧琪微睁明眸。
苏茹笑道：“真的假的呀？ 蒋槐那样的能被招揽？”
楚离笑着点头：“他现在不同往日。 有了夫人，所以想过稳定的生活，他又得罪了仁国公府，差点儿被仁国公府收拾了。”
“蒋槐的轻功绝顶，是有用之才。” 萧琪轻颌首：“你能招揽了来，大功一件。”
楚离微笑：“他这般人才，不能为我所用确实可惜。”
“去歇着吧，剩下的我会处理。” 萧琪道。
楚离抱抱拳，转身离开。
萧琪打量几眼长生草，感受着勃勃生机，知道假不了，合起盒子起身前往铁鹰岛。
清晨时分的国公府格外的热闹，比平时更热闹几分，湖上小船来来往往。
她与苏茹踏上铁鹰岛后花园里，萧铁鹰正在后花园练功，掌力弥漫，周身紫气腾腾，旁边没人伺候。
看到萧琪过来，萧铁鹰惊奇的收功，她这个时间过来肯定有事。
“大哥，长生草找回来了。” 萧琪道。
萧铁鹰一怔，大喜过望：“找回来啦？ ！”
萧琪看一眼苏茹，苏茹双手捧着玉盒呈到萧铁鹰跟前。
萧铁鹰打开玉盒一瞧，顿时呵呵笑起来：“果然是长生草！”
他情不自禁的抚摸着玉盒，温润而清冷的感觉从手心传来，让他冷静了一分，叹道：“真是天不绝人，二妹有救啦！”
萧琪轻颌首。
“楚离找回来的？”
“是。”
“好小子，果然厉害！”
萧琪道：“不过楚离他坚持二姐中了封元指，长生草没用！”
萧铁鹰冷哼一声：“他倒是执拗！”
萧琪摇头道：“算了，不管他了，尽快给二姐服下吧。”
“对对。” 萧铁鹰再次露出笑脸：“上午就给二妹服下！”
他兴冲冲的合起玉盒，沉吟道：“这小子真是好本事，倒不能不赏！ ……再升一品有点儿太快，三妹，你觉得赏点什么好？”
“先前不是要升一品，要出尔反尔？” 萧琪蹙眉。
“要是别人，升一品没什么，可是楚离如今四品，已经惊世骇俗，再升的话，对他也不好。” 萧铁鹰摇头道。
“府里有一块虎骨……”萧琪道：“赏给他吧！”
“灵虎骨？”
“大哥实在舍不得，就让他赏玩一阵子吧。” 萧琪道。
“他拿灵虎骨有什么用？” 萧铁鹰犹豫不决，疑惑的问：“难道要吃？
灵虎骨剧毒无比，入药服下即毙命，煞气冲天，需在特殊之物封存，稍一碰触即毙，煞气杀人无形，比宝剑更可怕。 (未完待续。

Chapter 135: Tiger Bone
“What are the benefits of a Protector who holds a post?” Jiang Kuai asked.
He believed that most martial artists could not stand being restrained. Taking orders from others would be too indignant so there must have been enormous benefits to make others do it.
Chu Li shook his head and smiled. “There are no other benefits!”
“Ah — ?” Jiang Kuai was surprised.
“Other than being a little more stable, there are no other benefits,” said Chu Li.
“This can’t be true.” Jiang Kuai frowned. “If there was no benefit, who would let others order him around?”
Chu Li smiled. “There may be one benefit: you can be promoted.”
“Promoted… ” Jiang Kuai pondered.
Chu Li said, “Just like my Glory’s Will Courtyard. If you just joined, of course, you would have to start from the lowest level. If you did well, you will be promoted.”
“We don’t practice martial arts to become an official!” Jiang Kuai scoffed.
Chu Li laughed. “Like the Glory’s Will Courtyard, there are Scribe Commanders, Protector Commanders, and Deputy Commanders. If you become the commander, you can order others around… Doing everything on your own, or with just a command, other people would do it for you. Which one is more comfortable?”
Jiang Kuai shook his head.
Authority was truly a great temptation. How many people could refuse it?
“Ok, Brother Jiang Kuai, I’ve spoken until my mouth is dry. Now, give me an answer, are you joining the Public House?” asked Chu Li.
“Can I believe you?” Jiang Kuai said, “Don’t tell me you are deceiving me to get me to join.”
Chu Li laughed despite himself. “To be honest if I wanted to harm you, do I need to waste so much energy in persuading you? There is no need for me to notify you, I can just watch from the side… What’s more, I have treated Brother Jiang Kuai sincerely. Otherwise, I just need to wait until they almost succeeded to come to your aid and by then, wouldn’t Brother Jiang Kuai feel grateful towards me? And by that time, do I still need to earnestly persuade you like this?”
Jiang Kuai revealed a small smile.
This indeed made him trust Chu Li more. If Chu Li wanted to scheme against him, he could just wait until he fell into a difficult situation to reach out and help him. Feeling grateful, Jiang Kuai would agree to join the Public House readily.
“Husband, why not? Let’s join the Public House,” Su Yuting said softly.
Jiang Kuai glanced at her.
Su Yuting could see that her husband was moved, but he could not put aside his pride to admit it. These words could only be said by her. Even if Jiang Kuai complains in the future, she couldn’t care about anything else, this was a rare opportunity!
“Su Yuting, if we really are joining the Public House, our lives may not be as good as it is now!” Jiang Kuai sighed.
Su Yuting smiled. “As long as we are together, anywhere is the same!”
Chu Li laughed. “Brother Jiang Kuai, the danger of living in the Public House is far lesser than how you currently are now!”
“Haih… ” Jiang Kuai breathed out a long sigh and said slowly, “Very well, I’ll join the Public House!”
Chu Li clapped his hands in joy and laughed. “Congratulations Brother Jiang Kuai! You will not regret it!”
Jiang Kuai shook his head. “Who knows.”
“There are numerous people who want to join the Public House, but how many people can really enlist in it?” Chu Li smiled. “Brother Jiang Kuai is oblivious to your good fortune! … Let’s move, return to the Public House straight away!”
“No problem!” Jiang Kuai replied frankly.
In the early hours of the morning, the mist draped over the lake like a veil.
Chu Li breathed in the fresh, moist air and walked into the Stargazing Tower. Su Ru was standing in the main hall, wearing an apricot gown that brought out the features of her white jade face. She was smiling when she looked at him. “Was it successful?”
Chu Li smiled as well. “I was able to accomplish the mission!”
“Good! Good!” Su Ru beckoned at him. “Hurry up and go to see Lady Xiao. She has been waiting for you!”
The two went up to the third floor. Xiao Qi was sitting cross-legged on the bed meditating. Her left arm’s plaster had been removed and one would not be able to see the injury from its surface appearance. She had her eyes closed, solemn and silent, like Guanyin sitting on the lotus.
When Chu Li entered the third floor, her bright eyes opened.
Chu Li took out a jade box and handed it over with both hands. “My Lady, the Longevity Grass!”
Su Ru took it and presented it to Xiao Qi.
“Open it,” said Xiao Qi.
Su Ru opened the box and inside was a green grass. At first glance, it was similar to the usual weed but it was four to five times thicker than weed. Its exuberant green illustrated its abundance of vitality and just by a single look, one could tell that it was not a normal item.
“Now, Second Eldest Sister can be saved!” Xiao Qi sighed softly.
Chu Li shook his head. “It’s useless.”
Xiao Qi gave him a look of askance.
“There’s the Vitality Sealing Finger so even ten Longevity Grass cannot save Second Lady!” said Chu Li.
“Shut up!” Xiao Qi said bluntly, “Big Brother does not want to hear this!”
Chu Li sighed and nodded in resignation.
With his low position, Chu Li’s words carried little weight. He learned medical skills from Mulin for only a month, no matter what, he would not be able to win the trust of others.
“My Lady, I recruited Jiang Kuai into the Public House!” Chu Li said.
“Hmm—?” Xiao Qi’s bright eyes widened slightly.
Su Ru laughed. “Really? Someone like Jiang Kuai can be recruited?”
Chu Li nodded with a smile. “He is different now from when he was in the past. He has a wife, so he wants to live a stable life. Moreover, Jiang Kuai offended Ren Public House and was almost killed by them.”
“Jiang Kuai’s Light-body Technique is peerless. He will be useful.” Xiao Qi nodded subtly. “You managed to recruit him, you did a great job.”
Chu Li smiled. “It would be a pity if I did not enlist a talented guy like him to work for me.”
“Go and get some rest. I will deal with everything else,” Xiao Qi said.
Chu Li gave a fist salute and turned to leave.
Xiao Qi studied the Longevity Grass, feeling the abounding vitality of it. Knowing that it was not fake, she closed the box, got up and went to Iron Eagle Island.
In the early morning hours, the Public House was usually exceptionally lively but this time it was more buoyant than usual. Boats on the lake came and went.
Xiao Qi and Su Ru set foot in the backyard garden of Iron Eagle Island, Xiao Tieying was practicing there. His palm energy diffused into the air and a raging purple gas surrounded his whole body. There was no one serving beside him.
When he saw Xiao Qi approaching him, Xiao Tieying stopped his training in surprise. She must have had something urgent to tell him since she came over during this hour.
“Big Brother, we got back the Longevity Grass,” Xiao Qi said.
Xiao Tieying was stunned momentarily and then, he was overjoyed. “We got it back?!”
Xiao Qi glanced at Su Ru. Su Ru presented the jade box before Xiao Tieying with both her hands.
Xiao Tieying opened the jade box and looked at its contents. He laughed instantly. “It really is the Longevity Grass!”
He could not help but caress the jade box, a warm yet cool feeling was felt from his palm and it made him calm down. He sighed. “Heaven would not fail a man. Second Younger Sister can be saved!
Xiao Qi nodded lightly.
“Chu Li found it?”
“Yes.”
“Bravo, he really is awesome!”
“However, Chu Li insists that Second Eldest Sister is affected by the Vitality Sealing Finger and that the Longevity Grass is useless to cure her!” said Xiao Qi.
“Humph!” Xiao Tieying scoffed coldly, “He is truly stubborn!”
Xiao Qi shook her head. “Never mind, ignore him. Let Second Eldest Sister eat it as soon as possible.”
“You’re right.” Xiao Tieying revealed a smiling face again. “I will give it to Second Younger Sister in the morning!”
He excitedly closed the jade box and mumbled, “This fellow is really capable, I have to reward him… advancing a rank again is a little bit too fast. Third Younger Sister, what do you think we should reward him with?”
“Before this, you promised to raise his rank. How come you’ve changed your mind?” Xiao Qi frowned.
“If it was someone else, advancing a rank is nothing, but Chu Li is currently rank four and it is shocking enough. If we increase his rank again, it will not be good for him too.” Xiao Tieying shook his head.
“There is a tiger bone in the Public House… ” Xiao Qi said. “Reward him with this!”
“The Spirit Tiger Bone?” Xiao Tieying revealed a pained expression. “This… ”
“If Big Brother is really reluctant, then let him play with it for a while,” Xiao Qi said.
“What is the use of the Spirit Tiger Bone to him?” Xiao Tieying hesitated and asked dubiously, “Could it be that he wants to eat it? But this thing cannot be made into a medicine!”
The Spirit Tiger Bone was extremely toxic. If it was made into a medicine and eaten, Chu Li would die instantly. He would suffer soaring killing intent and he would need to be sealed in a special item. Just a little touch and he would die in a snap. Killing intent can kill people imperceptibly, it was even more terrifying than a sword.

"value": "Qin Wushuang and his group returned to the Dispersed Praying Mountain. Bao Bao went to visit the Monkey King Mountain. Both parties agreed to meet again at the Monkey King Mountain.\nWhen Qin Wushuang returned to the human countries, he was more cautious. He sent his family to the Stargaze Palace. As soon as the grass bends as the wind stirred, they would enter the Endless Eastern Sea.\nOf course, training was the most important aspect along the journey. After the battle with Luo Ting, Qin Wushuang had gained the most profound experience, there was a great gap between his own strength and the true elite warriors. He had to hurry and close this gap.\nThus, besides travelling, everyday he would undergo training. After walking for more than half a month, they had arrived at a major place called the Danxia Prefecture.\nThis Danxia Prefecture was slightly different than Orderly Mountain and Judge Mountain Prefecture. The territory of the Danxia Prefecture was extremely wide wherein several powerful sects resided.\nAmong them, there were second-rate major powerhouse on par with the scope of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.\nBecause of the existence of these powerhouses, it allowed the Danxia Prefecture to hold a decent status across the entire Xuan Yuan Mound. In the Xuan Yuan Mound, they were ranked in the top fifteen.\nQin Wushuang walked with Bao Bao and Lone through the main street of the capital city of the Danxia Prefecture. The liveliness that bustled around them had even surpassed the Orderly Mountain and Judge Mountain Prefecture.\nQin Wushuang's purpose for this journey was to visit a craftsman. In this Danxia Prefecture, this craftsman excelled at making all sorts of different spiritual talismans.\nThis time, Qin Wushuang had come to ask this master craftsman to craft several goods.\nAfter they had passed a few streets, they wound up in a remote area as they continued to walk. Qin Wushuang frowned and said: \"The map drawn by Ying Long should be correct, no?\"\n\"He must have some guts to do it wrong.\" Bao Bao laughed.\n\"It's really strange, could it be that figure at the master level has strange habits? Could it be that this Master Lu Xianlou likes to live in this remote place?\"\nThe spiritual talisman craftsman that Qin Wushuang was about to visit was called Lu Xianlou. Across the entire Xuan Yuan Mound, he had high reputation.\nThe spiritual talisman he made were the absolutely best quality. In the Xuan Yuan Mound, there were innumerable people that begged him to make a spiritual talisman. However, this Master Lu Xianlou only made talisman through judging people's appearances.\nFirstly, he would not receive those unpleasant to the eyes.\nSecondly, he would not receive those notorious ones.\nThe last condition was the most realistic, he would not receive those who could not pay.\nThe last two conditions were fine. For the first one, no one had the confidence. In fact, judging those unpleasant to the eyes meant it would come from one's four emotions at that instant.\nAfter they had walked for a while, with Bao Bao's sharp senses, he glanced an unnoticeable shop sign in the little alley to the left. A simple word \"Lu\" was written on top of it.\n\"Don't tell me it's here?\" Bao Bao almost could not believe his eyes, \"It's not that this place is not good, only this Master is surely capable of enduring loneliness. A famous person like him is able to endure loneliness in such place, for sure he is different than others.\"\nQin Wushuang did not find it strange. In fact, many ancient people from Qin Wushuang's previous world enjoyed living in seclusion and were willing to bear the loneliness.\nPerhaps, Master Lu Xianlou was a person that did not care about fame or fortune.\n\"Bao Bao, it's possible that this is the breadth of mind and stage possessed only by those at the Master level. If it were someone that could not endure the loneliness, how could they become a Master? A master would not come from surrounding oneself with sycophants, but through bits of hard work. Although I am an outsider regarding this spiritual talisman crafting, for any skill, the most valuable part would always be the extreme refinement. Bao Bao, let's go and take a look. Before a true master, we mustn't neglect.\"\nQin Wushuang had come this time as he wanted to craft a useful tool. Regarding this tool, his inspiration was evoked after he saw Luo Ting use it.\nThe spiritual perception message jade used by Luo Ting had allowed him to communicate with Luo Tongtian, the Head Dao Warrior of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect a hundred thousand miles away. This proved that message jade was extremely useful.\nQin Wushuang knew that this treasure was extremely important. In the human countries, he had never witnessed such item. The costs to manufacture this talisman would not be bearable to the those in the human countries.\nAs he dwelled on the thought, he reached the entrance of the shop. This shop was not big and it was situated next to the little alley built by layers of green slate.\nA young man dressed in a apprentice's clothing held a sculpting knife at the entrance and was sculpting with utmost seriousness on a stone stand. Each move he made showcased his incredible concentration and focus.\nQin Wushuang saw that he was absorbed in his sculpting, he was reluctant to disturb him. He stopped Bao Bao and Lone's barbarous manner, and stood on the side quietly to admire the exceptional work of this young man.\nAlthough Qin Wushuang did not understand sculpting, he had the appreciation. In his former world, Qin Wushuang had stolen many legendary works from overseas. It had included all different kinds of refined artistic works. Thus, although his appreciation of the arts was not professional, he still had his own insights.\nAs soon as he saw the sculpting skill, he felt that there was a sense of allure within the work. Certainly this would not be an ordinary piece of work that could allow Qin Wushuang to evoke such feeling.\nQin Wushuang stood to the side and watched patiently. Apparently, that young man was sculpting the eyes of the sculpture. Eyes were the window to one's heart. If the eyes were sculpted with charm, the entire work would come alive. Vivid and lifelike, the work would give off a kind of charm that could intoxicate people.\nThat young man frowned, appearing to be deep in thought as he was clearly hesitating on how to draw it.\nHe turned his head abruptly and saw Qin Wushuang watching him attentively. He slowly seemed to have realized something as he clapped his hands and laughed: \"There it is.\"\nAfter a few simple marks, a pair of eyes full of brightness and expression appeared.\nThis young man had acted according to the situation and caught Qin Wushuang's eyes from that instant. His spiritual perception had become clear that instant and he had sculpted Qin Wushuang's eyes into this sculpture through a few chisels. With the work appearing vivid and lifelike, it was no wonder that Bao Bao and Lone had cried in astonishment.\nQin Wushuang also felt bewildered. This skill had surpassed his imaginations. Such skillful craftsman had existed in the world. Such marvelous creation excelling nature had existed that even made Qin Wushuang exclaim with admiration.\nWhen Qin Wushuang looked at the eyes of this sculpture, he could almost feel a kind of resonance.\n\"Marvelous, such wonderful skill, it's truly a magnificent work. Indeed, masters live among the people! It doesn't matter where the master lives, what matters is talent. Despite your young age, you have such marvelous skill. Could it be you are Master Lu's disciple?\"\n\"Master Lu?\" That young man showed a confused look, \"Who's that?\"\nQin Wushuang and Bao Bao looked at each other with dismay. The signboard on top of the shop had clearly written with a word \"Lu\". Why did this young man ask this question? Could it be that this young man was not related with the master here?\nIf they were not related, why was he sculpting at the door of Master Lu's shop and did not seem to be an outsider.\n\"Could it be that this is not Master Lu Xianlou's house?\"\nThat young man raised his eyebrow: \"If you looking for Lu Xianlou, you are at the right place. If you looking for some Master Lu, this place does not have him.\"\nThat young man rolled his eyes: \"You guys know Lu Xianlou?\"\n\"Of course not, we are here to pay him a visit.\"\nThat young man said: \"Since you guys do not know who Lu Xianlou is, how do you know if he is fat or skinny? Old or young? Why would you think I am Lu Xianlou's disciple or descendant?\"\nBao Bao chuckled: \"Then you must not be his ancestor.\"\nThat young man rolled his eyes again for Bao Bao: \"I am Lu Xianlou.\"\nAs soon as he spoke these words, not to mention Bao Bao and Lone, even Qin Wushuang was dumbstruck. This young man was Lu Xianlou?\nSlowly regaining his senses, Qin Wushuang finally realized the light: \"So you are Master Lu Xianlou, I thought you were his disciple or descendant. I thought that the student had surpassed the master. Now it seems that the true masterwork is after all, rare.\"\nLu Xianlou chuckled and did not buy Qin Wushuang's words. He carried that sculpture back to the house and said: \"Ok, tell me, why are you looking for me, do you know that I don't receive three types of people?\"\n\"Yes, of course we know.\" Bao Bao replied, \"You will not receive those unpleasant to the eyes, those notorious ones, and those who cannot afford. Is that right?\"\n\"That's right.\" Lu Xianlou said indifferently, \"When you came here, you did not disturb me. The first time I looked at you, I let you into my work. Of course, you are not unpleasant to my eyes. You have passed this one. Next, you must tell me where you came from, and your identity. Then, you must show proof that you are able to pay the fee for my commission!\""

秦无双一行回到了支祁山。 包包回到猴王山探访，双方约好了再次在猴王山再见。
秦无双回到人类国度，这次秦无双更加谨慎了。
将家人送到星罗殿去。 只要有风吹草动，立刻进入无经过了与罗挺一战，秦无双深刻体会到，自己的实力毕竟还是和真正的高手有大差距。
因此，每日除了行路之外，便是修炼。 这沿途走了半个多月，来到了一个名叫丹霞府的大地方。
这丹霞府和排山府以及衡山府有所不同。 丹霞府的地界十分广阔，而且盘踞着好几家强大的势力。
这其中，更有堪比罗天道场规模的二流大势力。
正因为有这些势力的存在，让丹霞府在整个轩辕丘，都有着不错的地位。 在轩辕丘，能排在前十五名之内。
秦无双带着包包和寂寞，正在丹霞府都城的大街上，四处一片繁华热闹，比那排山府和衡山府更胜一筹。
秦无双此行的目的，是拜访一个工匠。 在这丹霞府，这位工匠最擅长制作各是种灵符。
秦无双这次来，正是要请这位大师级的工匠制作几件东西。
走了几条街，越往下走，反而越靠近了偏僻地带。 秦无双皱着眉头道：“应隆绘制的地图，不会出错吧？”
“他得有那个胆才行啊。” 包包笑道。
抬头看去，这已经是一片类似于贫民窟一样的地方了。 各种弄堂，穿来绕去，给人一种很脏乱的感觉。
原来，秦无双要拜访的这个制符大师，名叫鲁先楼，在整个轩辕丘，都有着很高的声誉。
他制作的灵符，绝对是顶尖水准。 在轩辕丘，每天求他制作灵符的人，简直是数不胜数，但这鲁先楼大师制符，却是以貌取人的。
其一，他看不顺眼的不接待。
第二，臭名昭著者恕不接待。
最后，也是最现实的，支付不起佣金的，恕不接待。
后面两条还好，第一条，谁都心里没有底。 看谁顺不顺眼，其实也就是那一瞬间的喜怒哀乐。
走了一阵，还是包包眼尖，瞥见左边小巷道里，有一个不太显眼的招牌，上面正写着一个单调的“鲁”字。
“不会是这吧?”包包简直不敢相信自己的眼睛，“不是说这地方不好，只不过这个大师也太耐得住寂寞了。 像他这样一个大红人，能够在这种地方甘于寂寞，还真是和其他人不一样。”
秦无双倒是见怪不怪，事实上，秦无双前世的古人，也有很多喜欢过隐逸生活，甘于寂寞。
也许，这鲁先楼大师正是淡泊名利之人。
“包包，这可能正是大师级别的人才有的胸怀和境界。 如果是耐不住寂寞的人，又怎能成其大师地位？
秦无双这次来，其实是想制作一份非常实用的工具。 这东西，他是看到罗挺使用，才激发灵感的。
那罗挺利用传识玉牌，能够在数百万里的距离外，与罗天道场的大道尊罗通天交流。 这证明那传识玉牌非常好用。
秦无双知道，这东西非常重要。 在人类国度，他压根就没见识过这类东西，而且这东西的成本，也绝对不是人类国度所能承受得起。
正想着的时候，已经走到了店铺门口。 这店铺并不大，坐落在青石板砌成的小巷道旁边。
一名年轻的学徒打扮的年轻人，在门口拿着一把雕刀，在一座石块上认真地雕琢着，每下一笔，都是那样认真而专注。
秦无双见他雕刻的非常投入，反而是不忍心打扰他，制止住包包和寂寞的粗野，静悄悄地立在一旁，欣赏起这年轻人的杰作。
虽然秦无双不懂雕刻，但境界总是有的。 秦无双前世从海外盗回了很多传世名作，包括各种典雅的艺术作品，因此对艺术品的鉴赏力，虽然不专业，但直觉上还是有些心得的。
一看这雕刻的手笔，便觉得有一种让人心生神往的境界在里头，能让秦无双产生这种感觉的作品，必然不是凡物。
那年轻人，显然是在雕琢着雕像的眼睛最好书～城手打～。 眼睛是心灵的窗户，这眼睛如果雕出了神韵来，整个作品顿时就会鲜活起来，栩栩如生，产生出一种让人沉醉的魅力。
那年轻人皱眉深思，显然是犹豫着怎么下笔。 蓦然回头，却见到秦无双正专注地盯着他看。
一时好像开窍了，猛然一拍手，大笑道：“有了。” 拿起雕刻刀，便在上面雕了起来。
几下简单的手笔，一对炯炯有神的眼睛，便应运而生了。
包包和寂寞都是大吃一惊：“这……这眼神。 这年轻人，竟然应景而为，将秦无双那一瞬间的眼神捕捉到，神识当中立刻一片开朗，三俩下便将秦无双的眼神勾勒到了这雕像里，生动而形象。 难怪包包呃寂寞都如此惊叹。
秦无双也觉得不可思议，这手笔，简直已经超出了他的想象范围。 世界上竟然真有这样的能工巧匠，竟然能有这么巧夺天工的手笔，简直是传神到了让秦无双本人都惊叹不已的境界。
秦无双看着这雕像的眼神，几乎便能产生一种共鸣感。
仁兄年纪轻，有这样的大手笔。 莫非是鲁大师的令高徒？”
“鲁大师？” 那年轻人一脸不解，“那是谁？”
这上面的招牌，明明写着一个“鲁”字，为何这年轻人却如此问？ 难道年轻人和这里的主人并没有关系？
可是如果没关系的话，他又怎会在鲁大师的门口雕刻，而且全然一副不把自己当外人的样子。
“难道这里不是鲁先楼大师的府邸？”
那年轻人眉毛一扬：“你们找鲁先楼，那是找对了。 找什么鲁大师，这里没有的。”
年轻人，鲁先楼是你长辈吗？
“当然不认识，我们就是特意来拜访的。”
那年轻人道：“你们不认识鲁先楼，怎么知道他是胖是瘦？ 是老是少？
包包笑呵呵道：“那你总不可能是他的祖宗先人咯。”
那年轻人又一个白眼赠送给包包：“我就是鲁先楼。”
这话一出，别说包包和寂寞了。 就连秦无双也是目瞪口呆。 这年轻人是鲁先楼？
秦无双呆了片刻，这才恍然醒悟：“原来阁下就是鲁先楼大师，我还以为是鲁先楼大师的徒子徒孙，还觉得阁下青出于蓝而胜于蓝呢。 现在看来，真正的大手笔，毕竟是稀有。”
鲁先楼呵呵一笑，并不吃秦无双这一套，将那雕刻一把抱回屋里：“好了，说吧，来找我干什么，知道我有三不接待吗？” “知道，当然知道。”
“没错。” 鲁先楼淡淡道，“你来这里，没有打断我，我看你第一眼，就让你入了我的作品。
好吧，接下去你们得告诉我，你们从哪来，身份如何。 然后得证明，你们支付的起请我的佣金！”

Qin Wushuang and his group returned to the Dispersed Praying Mountain. Bao Bao went to visit the Monkey King Mountain. Both parties agreed to meet again at the Monkey King Mountain.
When Qin Wushuang returned to the human countries, he was more cautious. He sent his family to the Stargaze Palace. As soon as the grass bends as the wind stirred, they would enter the Endless Eastern Sea.
Of course, training was the most important aspect along the journey. After the battle with Luo Ting, Qin Wushuang had gained the most profound experience, there was a great gap between his own strength and the true elite warriors. He had to hurry and close this gap.
Thus, besides travelling, everyday he would undergo training. After walking for more than half a month, they had arrived at a major place called the Danxia Prefecture.
This Danxia Prefecture was slightly different than Orderly Mountain and Judge Mountain Prefecture. The territory of the Danxia Prefecture was extremely wide wherein several powerful sects resided.
Among them, there were second-rate major powerhouse on par with the scope of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect.
Because of the existence of these powerhouses, it allowed the Danxia Prefecture to hold a decent status across the entire Xuan Yuan Mound. In the Xuan Yuan Mound, they were ranked in the top fifteen.
Qin Wushuang walked with Bao Bao and Lone through the main street of the capital city of the Danxia Prefecture. The liveliness that bustled around them had even surpassed the Orderly Mountain and Judge Mountain Prefecture.
Qin Wushuang's purpose for this journey was to visit a craftsman. In this Danxia Prefecture, this craftsman excelled at making all sorts of different spiritual talismans.
This time, Qin Wushuang had come to ask this master craftsman to craft several goods.
After they had passed a few streets, they wound up in a remote area as they continued to walk. Qin Wushuang frowned and said: "The map drawn by Ying Long should be correct, no?"
"He must have some guts to do it wrong." Bao Bao laughed.
"It's really strange, could it be that figure at the master level has strange habits? Could it be that this Master Lu Xianlou likes to live in this remote place?"
The spiritual talisman craftsman that Qin Wushuang was about to visit was called Lu Xianlou. Across the entire Xuan Yuan Mound, he had high reputation.
The spiritual talisman he made were the absolutely best quality. In the Xuan Yuan Mound, there were innumerable people that begged him to make a spiritual talisman. However, this Master Lu Xianlou only made talisman through judging people's appearances.
Firstly, he would not receive those unpleasant to the eyes.
Secondly, he would not receive those notorious ones.
The last condition was the most realistic, he would not receive those who could not pay.
The last two conditions were fine. For the first one, no one had the confidence. In fact, judging those unpleasant to the eyes meant it would come from one's four emotions at that instant.
After they had walked for a while, with Bao Bao's sharp senses, he glanced an unnoticeable shop sign in the little alley to the left. A simple word "Lu" was written on top of it.
"Don't tell me it's here?" Bao Bao almost could not believe his eyes, "It's not that this place is not good, only this Master is surely capable of enduring loneliness. A famous person like him is able to endure loneliness in such place, for sure he is different than others."
Qin Wushuang did not find it strange. In fact, many ancient people from Qin Wushuang's previous world enjoyed living in seclusion and were willing to bear the loneliness.
Perhaps, Master Lu Xianlou was a person that did not care about fame or fortune.
"Bao Bao, it's possible that this is the breadth of mind and stage possessed only by those at the Master level. If it were someone that could not endure the loneliness, how could they become a Master? A master would not come from surrounding oneself with sycophants, but through bits of hard work. Although I am an outsider regarding this spiritual talisman crafting, for any skill, the most valuable part would always be the extreme refinement. Bao Bao, let's go and take a look. Before a true master, we mustn't neglect."
Qin Wushuang had come this time as he wanted to craft a useful tool. Regarding this tool, his inspiration was evoked after he saw Luo Ting use it.
The spiritual perception message jade used by Luo Ting had allowed him to communicate with Luo Tongtian, the Head Dao Warrior of the Heavenly Luo Daoist Sect a hundred thousand miles away. This proved that message jade was extremely useful.
Qin Wushuang knew that this treasure was extremely important. In the human countries, he had never witnessed such item. The costs to manufacture this talisman would not be bearable to the those in the human countries.
As he dwelled on the thought, he reached the entrance of the shop. This shop was not big and it was situated next to the little alley built by layers of green slate.
A young man dressed in a apprentice's clothing held a sculpting knife at the entrance and was sculpting with utmost seriousness on a stone stand. Each move he made showcased his incredible concentration and focus.
Qin Wushuang saw that he was absorbed in his sculpting, he was reluctant to disturb him. He stopped Bao Bao and Lone's barbarous manner, and stood on the side quietly to admire the exceptional work of this young man.
Although Qin Wushuang did not understand sculpting, he had the appreciation. In his former world, Qin Wushuang had stolen many legendary works from overseas. It had included all different kinds of refined artistic works. Thus, although his appreciation of the arts was not professional, he still had his own insights.
As soon as he saw the sculpting skill, he felt that there was a sense of allure within the work. Certainly this would not be an ordinary piece of work that could allow Qin Wushuang to evoke such feeling.
Qin Wushuang stood to the side and watched patiently. Apparently, that young man was sculpting the eyes of the sculpture. Eyes were the window to one's heart. If the eyes were sculpted with charm, the entire work would come alive. Vivid and lifelike, the work would give off a kind of charm that could intoxicate people.
That young man frowned, appearing to be deep in thought as he was clearly hesitating on how to draw it.
He turned his head abruptly and saw Qin Wushuang watching him attentively. He slowly seemed to have realized something as he clapped his hands and laughed: "There it is."
After a few simple marks, a pair of eyes full of brightness and expression appeared.
This young man had acted according to the situation and caught Qin Wushuang's eyes from that instant. His spiritual perception had become clear that instant and he had sculpted Qin Wushuang's eyes into this sculpture through a few chisels. With the work appearing vivid and lifelike, it was no wonder that Bao Bao and Lone had cried in astonishment.
Qin Wushuang also felt bewildered. This skill had surpassed his imaginations. Such skillful craftsman had existed in the world. Such marvelous creation excelling nature had existed that even made Qin Wushuang exclaim with admiration.
When Qin Wushuang looked at the eyes of this sculpture, he could almost feel a kind of resonance.
"Marvelous, such wonderful skill, it's truly a magnificent work. Indeed, masters live among the people! It doesn't matter where the master lives, what matters is talent. Despite your young age, you have such marvelous skill. Could it be you are Master Lu's disciple?"
"Master Lu?" That young man showed a confused look, "Who's that?"
Qin Wushuang and Bao Bao looked at each other with dismay. The signboard on top of the shop had clearly written with a word "Lu". Why did this young man ask this question? Could it be that this young man was not related with the master here?
If they were not related, why was he sculpting at the door of Master Lu's shop and did not seem to be an outsider.
"Could it be that this is not Master Lu Xianlou's house?"
That young man raised his eyebrow: "If you looking for Lu Xianlou, you are at the right place. If you looking for some Master Lu, this place does not have him."
That young man rolled his eyes: "You guys know Lu Xianlou?"
"Of course not, we are here to pay him a visit."
That young man said: "Since you guys do not know who Lu Xianlou is, how do you know if he is fat or skinny? Old or young? Why would you think I am Lu Xianlou's disciple or descendant?"
Bao Bao chuckled: "Then you must not be his ancestor."
That young man rolled his eyes again for Bao Bao: "I am Lu Xianlou."
As soon as he spoke these words, not to mention Bao Bao and Lone, even Qin Wushuang was dumbstruck. This young man was Lu Xianlou?
Slowly regaining his senses, Qin Wushuang finally realized the light: "So you are Master Lu Xianlou, I thought you were his disciple or descendant. I thought that the student had surpassed the master. Now it seems that the true masterwork is after all, rare."
Lu Xianlou chuckled and did not buy Qin Wushuang's words. He carried that sculpture back to the house and said: "Ok, tell me, why are you looking for me, do you know that I don't receive three types of people?"
"Yes, of course we know." Bao Bao replied, "You will not receive those unpleasant to the eyes, those notorious ones, and those who cannot afford. Is that right?"
"That's right." Lu Xianlou said indifferently, "When you came here, you did not disturb me. The first time I looked at you, I let you into my work. Of course, you are not unpleasant to my eyes. You have passed this one. Next, you must tell me where you came from, and your identity. Then, you must show proof that you are able to pay the fee for my commission!"

He coughed a few times, but he quickly climbed back up.\nHe’s fine?\nEveryone watching outside the domain opened their eyes wide.\n“Young master!”\nQing’er who was outside the domain could not hold back anymore, she instantly rushed forth, wanting to enter the domain, but she was stopped by the domain’s barrier. She stood by the protective barrier and shouted anxiously.\n“Qing’er, relax, I’m fine.”\nSu Yun gasped for breath, with a bit of a struggle, he stood up.\n“Thank you.” He spoke out.\nValkyrie’s sledgehammer initially had the strength to smash a mountain, but when she got close, she suddenly held her back on the strike, and when it struck Su Yun’s body, it’s power was already not at it’s peak.\n“Thank? What are you thanking me for?” Valkyrie’s face was slightly angered, she asked with a stern tone: “Wu Yun, why did you suddenly hold back with your sword in that moment? You clearly could have relied on it to cut me apart!”\nValkyrie had extraordinary senses for battle, and when Su Yun’s sword appeared and disappeared. Even if the officials were unable to realise it, Valkyrie had sensed it, especially the destructive force contained inside the transient Qi, even now when she thought back to it, it would cause her to shiver. “This…”\n‘If I had truly made that move, the one who would get cut down will not be you, but me.’ Su Yun thought secretly.\n“No, let’s go at it once more!”\nValkyrie spoke earnestly.\nTo not be able to truly enjoy the battle was truly her greatest dishonor.\n“No no, let’s do it another day, you won.” Su Yun no longer had the heart to continue. Furthermore, leaving a bit of strength to leave Qin Creek was even more practical.\n“Wu Yun, you promised me to give it your all, if you are unable to fulfill it, how can I do what I promised you?”\n“You wish to, after I took on that strike of yours, not to mention that I am already injured, to continue fighting? Isn’t that not being fair to me? Why not we change it to another day?” Su Yun looked at her and asked.\n“This….”\nValkyrie became silent, after a moment, she nodded her head and replied: “Since it’s like that, then fine! We will schedule it another day!”\n“That’s settled then!” Su Yun laughed.\nBut in the next second, Valkyrie spoke out again, with her voice raised.\n“I, Xiao Chuo had an unfair advantage in battle, and am fine with not having this victory! Four esteemed seniors, Xiao Chuo admits defeat!”\nWith that said, Valkyrie immediately jumped out of the domain.\n“But I-I want to admit defeat.” Su Yun was immediately stupefied.\n“The round is over, the liberty battle challenger has changed to participant Wu Yun, participant Wu Yun is currently ranked 16, any participants who wish to challenge him, can directly enter the domain.” The old lady shouted out loudly.\nJust that.\nWu Yun who had displayed his powerful strength, who dared to contend against him? The order badge had already recorded their ranks, and those who were ahead were relatively well, why would they provoke Wu Yun and humiliate themselves? The ones behind him truly wanted to defeat Su Yun and earn a better rank, but they had to consider their own strengths.\nWan Zang Tian raised his head and looked at Su Yun for a moment, but ultimately did not stand up, while Yang Fire Yan Yu seemed to have the intention as well, however, everyone knew that he could only challenge the participants from the selection competition without a problem, but would require some effort fighting against the seeded participants. Although Su Yun was a participant from the selection completion, his strength far exceeded the standards of the selection competition.\n“Miss Ming’er, who is that guy?”\nJust as Qing’er was observing Su Yun who was inside the absolute domain, a voice filled with hatred sounded out from behind her.\nQing’er was startled, she looked over, only to see Lu Xi Shan walking over with a tensed look, anger clearly clouding his voice.\n“He is my family’s young master.” Qing’er sighed and spoke gently.\n“Your family’s young master?”\n“Yes, before I was accepted into the Snow Jade Palace, Ming’er was just a servant of a family.”\nShe said without wavering.\nHearing that, Lu Xi Shan frowned, and when he looked at Qing’er, his eyes flashed with loathing and disgust.\nHe did not care if Qing’er lied to him, he only cared about status and identity. For Ink Blade Pavilion to go to the declining Snow Jade Palace was already a condescending move, and at that time, Qing’er was already highly regarded in the Snow Jade Palace. Although her status was not fit for Lu Xi Shan, but to call it an alliance through dual cultivation companions was not too bad. But for her to say that she used to be a servant, and followed a young master, how could Lu Xi Shan accept it? “So you were actually a slut!”\nLu Xi Shan bellowed in rage, then left.\nQing’er did not seem to care, from the start, Lu Xi Shan was always sticking to her, now that he left, Qing’er was extremely happy.\n“Are there no more challengers?”\nSeeing that no one was planning to enter the Liberty Battles, the old lady spoke out.\n“Since no one is coming up to challenge him, according to the competition rules, the first rank of Mountain River List will be given to participant Wu Yun, and the current ranking positions will also shift accordingly”\n“Someone wants to challenge.”\nJust then, a voice sounded out.\nEveryone was startled, they turned to look and saw that the speaker was actually Bai Feng Ye.\n“Bai Feng Ye finally wants to come out to fight?”\n“The top ranker of the previous Mountain River List! Hehe, there’s a good show to watch now!”\n“Who knows how many of Bai Feng Ye’s strikes Wu Yun can take!”\nThe light in everyone’s eyes all started to blaze while staring at Bai Feng Ye.\nThen, Bai Feng Ye actually waved his hand and spoke out: “I have no interesting in fighting, I am here purely to join in the crowd, I said that there is someone willing to challenge, however, it isn’t me, but my sister, Bai Yan Shan who is challenging him!”\nWith that said, everyone’s attention shifted to the Immortal Sword Sect’s representative, Bai Yan Shan.\nBai Yan Shan took a deep breath, she had some doubts in her mind, but she quickly got rid of them. In truth, her gaze was always on Su Yun, there was an indescribable feeling, but to say that she did not wish to fight with Su Yun was definitely untrue.\nShe thirsted to battle with strong cultivators. Although she was not as renowned as Valkyrie, still, she had a heart that wasn’t inferior to Valkyrie, and she was excited to be able to fight against every expert in the Mountain River List.\nAfter Bai Yan Shan had fought a few rounds before, everyone had a whole new respect for her sword techniques. Although it was unlike Wu Yun’s earth shattering and vast might, she was not weak either, Bai Yan Shan’s Imperial Sword techniques were agile and ever changing, her sword was not like a sword but a human instead.\n“Yan Shan, go up!” Bai Feng Ye laughed and said.\nBai Yan Shan nodded her head, with a stern expression she walked out of the group towards the absolute domain.\n“Oh well!”\nSu Yun nodded his head, he initially wanted to stop fighting, but seeing that it was Bai Yan Shan, along with the agreement with Long Xian Li, he had to fight Yan Shan, if not, wouldn’t he need to go and kowtow towards Shen Hong’s tomb? Shen Hong had killed Sword Elder, so even if he had to break his legs, he would definitely not kowtow to her.\n“Su Yun, I lost to you before at Wu Shuang Jue Peak, having not met after so many years, I wonder how much have you improved.”\nBai Yan Shan took down the sword on her back and pointed it straight at Su Yun, speaking with a firm voice.\n“I have an agreement with your sect elder Long Xian Li. If I am victorious against you, she have to fulfill the promise she had with me, and if I lose to you, I have to do something for her, which includes dying for what I did, so Miss Bai, if you are thinking of seeking revenge for your master Shen Hong, then please give it all you’ve got.”\nSu Yun unsheathed the Death Sword, thus releasing 100 swords from the sword sheath, revolving around him.\nIn that moment, he looked like a Sword Sovereign King.\n“Agreement?” Bai Yan Shan was startled, then thinking about how Elder Long Had been for the past few years, and her recent change, Bai Yan Shan vaguely had a sense of what it was.\n“Brother-in-law, be light with your hands! In any case, she is the wife, even if you have not married!”\nJust then, Bai Feng Ye who was watching shouted.\nSu Yun who had a stern expression almost fell to the ground, with everyone looking at Bai Feng Ye in shock.\nBai Yan Shan’s face flushed red, she turned and stared at Bai Feng Ye: “Big brother, what nonsense are you talking about? We have already rescinded the engagement already.”\n“I was just joking. I wanted to ease the tense situation between the two of you.” Bai Feng Ye laughed.\n“Please abstain from speaking nonsense.”\nBai Yan Shan snorted, then turned back and stared at Su Yun: “Let’s begin, Limitless!”\nSu Yun nodded, he readjusted his mind, and was ready.\nSeeing the two in position, the old lady shouted loudly : “You may begin.”\nIt was the exact same Imperial Sword Technique, one of them controlling one flying sword, the other controlling a 100, in terms of numbers, Su Yun held the advantage, but ability did not merely account numbers.\nThe two of them were frantically crossing swords inside the domain, the swords in the air continued to strike, just that, although Bai Yan Shan was also a definite genius, but facing against the evildoer Su Yun, the evildoer who had been through so much in the Evil Realm.\nThe majority of his road of slaughter came from Evil Realm’s people, and was never restricted by rules. As long as he caught on to a weakness and flaw, he will swoop in for the kill, without any fixed path of attacks. Initially, Bai Yan Shan who could keep up with him eventually started to lose out more and more.\n“So strong, we have not met for the few years, but his control over his flying swords has become even more powerful, his strength has also soared so much.” Bai Yan Shan thought in her mind.\nEveryone watched intensely, the intent of the battle was far from normal. If Bai Yan Shan lost, it was not only her that would lose, but even Immortal Sword Sect’s renowned Imperial Sword Technique.\nClang.\nA sword cry rang out. The Death Sword had ferociously slashed onto Bai Yan Shan’s sword, the brute force caused her to retreat in shock, churning the blood in her body.\nShe anxiously stopped and stabilized herself, supporting her full chest, her bright eyes stared straight at Su Yun.\n“I never thought you’d be so strong!”\n“Are you regretting it now?”\nSu Yun suddenly laughed.\n“Regret what?”\n“Didn’t you say that you wanted to find a talented and strong cultivator as your cultivation partner, I wonder if the current me is able to match up to you?”\nBai Yan Shan’s face changed, but she did not lie to herself, exhaling the impure Qi, she nodded her head: “If you were like this at that point of time, I would most probably not rescind the marriage agreement. Su Yun, I do not have any emotions for anyone, including you, if you’re talking about regret, yes, I do regret it, but everything that I do is for the sake of pursuing an even higher strength, to reach a higher cultivation dao!”\n“I understand.”\nSu Yun nodded his head: “So, I too do not care about you rescinding the agreement, if you want to, I agree to it too! Because no matter how good looking you get, no one will like you, because to me, you’re no different from a block of wood. Compared to Qing’er, you cannot even compare to her little finger.”\nWhen Su Yun said those words, he launched his attacked.\nBut the moment he said those words, it was as though he had touched on Bai Yan Shan’s Achilles’ tendon, her face was immediately flushed white, in shock she just stood in her Original position.\nSeeing that, Su Yun stopped himself.\n“You’re saying that I’m like a block of wood?” Her lips were slightly dry as she spoke, her eyes staring straight at him.\n“Are you not? Everything you do is for your strength. Chasing the cultivation dao, even if you achieve a power like no other, even if you reach the apex of the dao, then what? So what? Everything that you do is without a purpose, if you’re not a block of wood, then what are you?”\nIt was hard to imagine that there would be a person like Bai Yan Shan, who was a naive fool simply for cultivation.\nEven Valkyrie could not match up to her in terms of that.\nClang!\nJust then, a loud and clear sound came out.\nBai Yan Shan had relaxed her hand, the sword dropping straight onto the floor, she lowered her head, seemingly thinking of something, but her face was covered with a perplexed look and consideration.\nYes, Su Yun is right, what am I chasing all these for? To seek revenge for master? But why do I not feel even an ounce of hatred? Could this just be an excuse? Aren’t I exactly like a block of wood?\nConnecting with what Bai Feng Ye had said previously, Bai Yan Shan suddenly seemed to be enlightened.\nWhen she heard that Bai Feng Ye had obtained the first rank in the previous Mountain River List, she did not feel even a tad bit of happiness, and even with the chance of meeting her brother whom she had not met for 20 years, she only felt a bit of excitement, and had no other emotion.\nShe could get angry, sad, happy, and would even cry, but, all these would only be as a last sentiment.\nAnd it could not shake her state of mind for long.\nShe knew, she was doing it on purpose, her goal was that she hoped to be able to maintain a clear and calm heart.\n“I never thought that this brat Su Yun will be much. Better than what I had imagined.” Bai Feng Ye who was at the side kept on nodding in appreciation, without losing the smile on his face.\nBai Yan Shan did not speak further, she also did not have any intention to attack. She took a deep breath, picked up her sword and turned, leaving the absolute domain.\nSeeing that, Su Yun was quite surprised.\nBut to him, it was still considered good.\n“Announcing the result of the competition round, participant Wu Yun’s victory.”\nBai Yan Shan’s actions had announced that she had given up, and thus the old lady had immediately announced the outcome.\nFollowing that the battle with Yan Shan was over, Su Yun was determined to give up the competition and leave.\n********\n“Is it time? You Rong!”\nJust then, the lady in green at the corner raised her head and asked the lady in the mask beside her.\n“The time has just arrived.”\nHearing that, the lady in green looked at the large quantity of circle arrays behind the four officials, and said indifferently: “Then go, proceed with the plan.”\n“Yes.”"

第299章
大锤狠狠砸在苏云的胸膛，他整个人飞了出去，重重的摔在地上，咳嗽了几声，却一股脑儿的爬了起来。
没事？
领域外看呆了的人一个个再度瞪大了双眼。 “少爷！
！”
领域外的苏倾儿再也忍不住了，直接冲出去，想要进入领域，但却被领域屏障阻隔，她趴在屏障上，焦急的呼喊着。
“倾儿，放心，我没事。”
苏云狠狠的喘了口气，随后略微踉跄的站起身来。
他开口道。
女武神的锤子本有开辟大山的劲力，但在临近自己时骤然收手，砸在自己身上时已经不足百分之一。
谢什么？” 女武神小脸有些愤恼，沉了气质问：“无云，刚才那一剑，你为何突然收手？ 你明明可凭借那一剑斩我！”
女武神对战斗的感官超出了常人，即便苏云那一招只在一瞬间出现且消失，就连公证人都没察觉，但女武神察觉到了，尤其是那稍纵即逝的气息中蕴藏的破坏力，现在回想起来也让人发虚。
要真出手了，那被斩的就不是你，而是我了。 苏云暗道。
“不行，我们再来！”
女武神认真道。
不能痛痛快快的战上一回，简直是对她莫大的侮辱。
“不必了，改天吧，你赢了。” 苏云已经没有心思继续下去了。
“无云，你答应我全力一战，如今你办不到，那我答应你的事情怎能去做？”
“你...可我刚才吃了你一下，已经受了伤，继续斗不是对我不公平吗？ 不如我们改日如何？”
苏云眼珠子一转，开口道。
女武神沉思了起来，片刻后，她点点头道：“既然如此，那好吧！ 我们改日便战！”
“这就对了！” 苏云笑了。
但下一秒，女武神却又出声了，且声音极大。
“我萧婼今日胜之不武，这样的胜利不要也罢！ 四位前辈，萧婼认输了！”
声音落下，女武神直接跳出领域外。
“这...我...我认输啊。”
苏云顿时哑口。 “比赛结束，自由战场挑战者转入选手无云名下，选手无云当前排名为十六名，还有哪位选手想要挑战，可直接进入领域。”
只是。
此刻展示出了强劲实力的无云，还有谁敢再去挑战？ 金令上已经记录了他们的排名，排的靠前的实力都不错，怎会在这个时候招惹无云而自取其辱？
排到后头的倒有想击败苏云获得更高的排名，但却得掂量掂量自己的实力。 万葬天抬起头盯着苏云看了片刻，最终还是没有站出来，而‘一阳火’严羽似乎有这个意思，不过谁都知道，他挑评选赛的选手没问题，打种子选手可能就吃力了，虽然无云是评选赛选手，但他的实力却远远超出了评选赛人的水准。
“明儿小姐，这个人到底是谁？”
就在苏倾儿还在关注着领域内的苏云时，后头倏然响起一丝愠怒之声。
苏倾儿微愣，侧首望去，便看陆溪山神情发紧的走了过来，声音之中尽是怒意。
“他是我家少爷。” 苏倾儿吸了口气，轻轻道。
“你家少爷？”
“对，在没有拜入雪花玉神宫中时，明儿只是在一家大户人家里做丫鬟。”
她说的不动声色。
但陆溪山听了却是皱眉连连，再看向苏倾儿时，眼里已是闪动起厌恶之感。
他不在乎苏倾儿骗他，他在乎的是身份，本来刀墨阁向雪花玉神宫这样的没落门派示好已经是屈尊纡贵了，那时候的苏倾儿好歹也是玉神宫宫主器重的人，虽然身份不如陆溪山，但要说结成双修伴侣，倒也凑合，但苏倾儿如今却说她以前只是一个丫鬟，还跟了一个少爷，如此一来，陆溪山怎可能接受的了？
陆溪山恼怒低吼，愤然离开。
苏倾儿倒不在乎，至始至终，一直是陆溪山缠着她，如今他走了，苏倾儿高兴还来不及。
“无人挑战吗？”
见大殿内没有人再进入自由战场之中，老妪高声喊了一句。
但，迟迟不听有人吭声。
“有人要战。”
就在这时，一记呼声冒出。
“白风夜要出手了吗？”
“上届山河榜第一！
！ 呵呵，有好戏看了！”
“也不知这无云能在白风夜的手中撑住几招！”
人们眼放光芒，一个个目光炽热的盯着白风夜。
然，白风夜却是挥了挥手，道：“我没兴趣出手，今日来纯粹是凑个热闹，我说有人出战，可不是我要出战，而是我的妹妹白嫣扇要出战！”
此话落下，人们齐刷刷的将注意力放在了代表神剑派的白嫣扇身上。
白嫣扇深吸了口气，心头有些错愕，但她很快就释然了，其实她的目光由始至终一直放在苏云的身上，有点说不出的味道，但要说她不想与苏云一战，那是假的。
她渴望与强者战斗，她虽然名气没有女武神大，但她有一颗不弱于女武神的好强之心，她期盼着能与这儿的每一名高手搏杀。
之前白嫣扇已经战过几场，人们对她的剑法也是刮目相看，虽不如无云那般铺天盖地气势恢弘，但也不弱，白嫣扇的御剑术更倾向于轻灵多变，她的剑仿佛就不像是把剑，更像是个人。
“嫣扇，去吧！” 白风夜微笑道。
白嫣扇点点头，神情坚毅的走出人群，朝绝对领域行去。
“也好！”
苏云点点头，他本不想再战，但看走出来的人是白嫣扇，想起与龙仙璃的约定，这不打也得打啊，否则岂不是要去给沈虹磕头了？ 沈虹杀死剑老，就算打断他的腿，他也绝对不会给对方磕头。
“苏云，当初在无双绝顶峰上，我败给你，如今数年不见，也不知你实力如何。”
白嫣扇取下背后的长剑，剑锋指着苏云，声音沉稳。
“我与你们门派的龙仙璃长老有个约定，若我胜过了你，她要答应我一件事情，若我败给了你，我则要为她做一件事情，包括以死谢罪，所以白小姐，如果你想为你的师父沈虹报仇，就使出全力吧。”
苏云拔出死剑，剑匣内百剑齐飞，盘旋于他的周身。
这一刻，他就如剑之君主。
白嫣扇愣了片刻，但联想到数年来龙长老的魂不守舍，还有近期她的变化，白嫣扇隐隐察觉到了什么。
“妹夫，下手轻点！ 好歹也是你未过门的老婆。”
这时，那头的白风夜倏然喊了一句。
神情严肃的苏云差点一个踉跄摔在地上，人有些错愕的看着白风夜。
而白嫣扇脸颊一红，扭头瞪着白风夜：“大哥，你在胡说什么？ 我们已经解除婚约了。”
省的你们之间气氛太紧张了。” 白风夜嘿笑几声。
“莫要胡言。”
白嫣扇哼了一声，随后盯着苏云：“开始吧，无极！”
苏云点头，调整心态，准备动手。
老妪见二人站定，遂高喊开来：“搏杀开始。”
同样是御剑术，一个驾驭着一把，一个驾驭着百把，从数量上来看，苏云稳占上风，但搏杀可不是拼数量。
二人在领域内疯狂交手，空中的利剑不断轰击，只是，白嫣扇虽也是一名惊才绝艳的天才，但却碰到了苏云这个妖孽，这个在邪界走了一遭不知吃了多少苦头的妖孽。
他的攻杀套路多半来自邪人，从不墨守成规，只盯弱点与破绽杀，没有固定的袭击轨迹，起初白嫣扇还能驾驭，但到了后头，她已经有些力不从心了。
“好强，数年不见，他驾驭飞剑越发得心应手了，实力也是突飞猛进...”白嫣扇心头颤思。
人们看的紧张，这一战意义非凡，若白嫣扇败了，输的可不仅仅是她，还有那神剑派名满天下的御剑术。
铛！
一记剑鸣声炸开，便看死剑凶狠的劈在白嫣扇那把剑身上，蛮狠的劲力将她震得连连后退，体内气血翻涌。
她急急止住步伐，抚着饱满的胸口，一双明眸紧紧盯着苏云。
“没想到...你这么强！”
“后悔了吗？”
苏云倏然笑道。
“什么后悔？”
“你说你要找的双修伴侣要是天赋异禀的强者，不知道现在的我配不配的上你？”
白嫣扇脸色微变，但她没有欺骗自己的内心，吐了口浊气，点点头：“若当初的你是这个样子，我或许不会悔婚...不过，苏云，我对任何人都没有感情，包括你，要说后悔，我的确后悔，但我所做的一切只是追求更强的实力，更高的武道！”
“我明白。”
苏云点点头：“所以我一点也不在乎你的悔婚，你要解除婚约，我也答应！ 因为就算你生的再好看，那也一点都不讨人喜，在我看来，你跟根木头没什么区别，跟倾儿比较，你甚至敌不过她的一根手指头。”
苏云说着，便要攻过去。
可他就事论事的这番话说出口，却仿佛是触碰了白嫣扇的什么禁忌之处，她脸色骤白，整个人倏然愣在了原地。
苏云见状，止住身子。
“你说...我像个木头？” 她嘴唇有些干涩，双眸盯着他。
“难道不像吗？ 你做的一切就是为了实力，追求武道，可...你就算得到了强大的实力，追寻到那至高的武道又能如何？ 你所做的这一切都毫无意义，不是木头是什么？”
很难想象，这个世界上会有白嫣扇这样单纯的武痴。
只怕女武神都无法比过她。
哐当！
这时，清脆声音落出。
便看白嫣扇的柔荑倏然松开，那剑直接落在地上，她低垂着臻首，不知在想什么，但，她的脸上竟布满了迷茫与深思。
为了给师父报仇？ 但为何心中却没有那般深的仇恨？ 这难道只是个借口？
这样的我，不就是个木头吗？
联想起之前白风夜的话，白嫣扇猛然惊觉。 在第一次听到白风夜获得山河榜第一时，她都没觉有多高兴，而再见到二十余年不曾相见的白风夜，她也只是略微激动了下，便没了任何的感觉。
她会生气，会悲伤，会高兴，也会哭泣，可，这些都只持续一瞬。
并不能彻底左右她的心境。
她明白，这是自己故意而为之，目的便是希望自己能够时时刻刻保持一颗清醒的内心。
“没想到苏云这小子做的比我想象中的要好的多啊。” 那头的白风夜连连点头，脸上笑意不减。
白嫣扇没有再说一个字，甚至也没有再向苏云攻击，她轻吸了口气，捡起地上的剑，转身离开了绝对领域，朝领域外行去。
看到这情况，苏云有些发愣。
不过这样...倒也算不错。
“本次比赛结果宣布，由选手无云获胜。”
白嫣扇的举动宣示着她已弃权，那头的老妪立刻大声宣布结果。
跟白嫣扇的这一仗也打完了，苏云定了定心，便要放弃比赛，离开此处。
“时辰到了吧？
有容！”
这时，角落处那名穿着碧裳的女子倏然抬起头，询问着身旁戴着面具的女子。
“刚好到。”
碧裳女子见状，扫视了一下那四名公证人后头的大量阵圈，淡淡道：“那上吧，可以执行计划了。”
“遵命。”

Chapter 299
The large sledgehammer fiercely smashed into Su Yun’s chest, causing his entire being to fly backward, and heavily crash into the ground. He coughed a few times, but he quickly climbed back up.
He’s fine?
Everyone watching outside the domain opened their eyes wide.
“Young master!”
Qing’er who was outside the domain could not hold back anymore, she instantly rushed forth, wanting to enter the domain, but she was stopped by the domain’s barrier. She stood by the protective barrier and shouted anxiously.
“Qing’er, relax, I’m fine.”
Su Yun gasped for breath, with a bit of a struggle, he stood up.
“Thank you.” He spoke out.
Valkyrie’s sledgehammer initially had the strength to smash a mountain, but when she got close, she suddenly held her back on the strike, and when it struck Su Yun’s body, it’s power was already not at it’s peak.
“Thank? What are you thanking me for?” Valkyrie’s face was slightly angered, she asked with a stern tone: “Wu Yun, why did you suddenly hold back with your sword in that moment? You clearly could have relied on it to cut me apart!”
Valkyrie had extraordinary senses for battle, and when Su Yun’s sword appeared and disappeared. Even if the officials were unable to realise it, Valkyrie had sensed it, especially the destructive force contained inside the transient Qi, even now when she thought back to it, it would cause her to shiver. “This…”
‘If I had truly made that move, the one who would get cut down will not be you, but me.’ Su Yun thought secretly.
“No, let’s go at it once more!”
Valkyrie spoke earnestly.
To not be able to truly enjoy the battle was truly her greatest dishonor.
“No no, let’s do it another day, you won.” Su Yun no longer had the heart to continue. Furthermore, leaving a bit of strength to leave Qin Creek was even more practical.
“Wu Yun, you promised me to give it your all, if you are unable to fulfill it, how can I do what I promised you?”
“You wish to, after I took on that strike of yours, not to mention that I am already injured, to continue fighting? Isn’t that not being fair to me? Why not we change it to another day?” Su Yun looked at her and asked.
“This….”
Valkyrie became silent, after a moment, she nodded her head and replied: “Since it’s like that, then fine! We will schedule it another day!”
“That’s settled then!” Su Yun laughed.
But in the next second, Valkyrie spoke out again, with her voice raised.
“I, Xiao Chuo had an unfair advantage in battle, and am fine with not having this victory! Four esteemed seniors, Xiao Chuo admits defeat!”
With that said, Valkyrie immediately jumped out of the domain.
“But I-I want to admit defeat.” Su Yun was immediately stupefied.
“The round is over, the liberty battle challenger has changed to participant Wu Yun, participant Wu Yun is currently ranked 16, any participants who wish to challenge him, can directly enter the domain.” The old lady shouted out loudly.
Just that.
Wu Yun who had displayed his powerful strength, who dared to contend against him? The order badge had already recorded their ranks, and those who were ahead were relatively well, why would they provoke Wu Yun and humiliate themselves? The ones behind him truly wanted to defeat Su Yun and earn a better rank, but they had to consider their own strengths.
Wan Zang Tian raised his head and looked at Su Yun for a moment, but ultimately did not stand up, while Yang Fire Yan Yu seemed to have the intention as well, however, everyone knew that he could only challenge the participants from the selection competition without a problem, but would require some effort fighting against the seeded participants. Although Su Yun was a participant from the selection completion, his strength far exceeded the standards of the selection competition.
“Miss Ming’er, who is that guy?”
Just as Qing’er was observing Su Yun who was inside the absolute domain, a voice filled with hatred sounded out from behind her.
Qing’er was startled, she looked over, only to see Lu Xi Shan walking over with a tensed look, anger clearly clouding his voice.
“He is my family’s young master.” Qing’er sighed and spoke gently.
“Your family’s young master?”
“Yes, before I was accepted into the Snow Jade Palace, Ming’er was just a servant of a family.”
She said without wavering.
Hearing that, Lu Xi Shan frowned, and when he looked at Qing’er, his eyes flashed with loathing and disgust.
He did not care if Qing’er lied to him, he only cared about status and identity. For Ink Blade Pavilion to go to the declining Snow Jade Palace was already a condescending move, and at that time, Qing’er was already highly regarded in the Snow Jade Palace. Although her status was not fit for Lu Xi Shan, but to call it an alliance through dual cultivation companions was not too bad. But for her to say that she used to be a servant, and followed a young master, how could Lu Xi Shan accept it? “So you were actually a slut!”
Lu Xi Shan bellowed in rage, then left.
Qing’er did not seem to care, from the start, Lu Xi Shan was always sticking to her, now that he left, Qing’er was extremely happy.
“Are there no more challengers?”
Seeing that no one was planning to enter the Liberty Battles, the old lady spoke out.
“Since no one is coming up to challenge him, according to the competition rules, the first rank of Mountain River List will be given to participant Wu Yun, and the current ranking positions will also shift accordingly”
“Someone wants to challenge.”
Just then, a voice sounded out.
Everyone was startled, they turned to look and saw that the speaker was actually Bai Feng Ye.
“Bai Feng Ye finally wants to come out to fight?”
“The top ranker of the previous Mountain River List! Hehe, there’s a good show to watch now!”
“Who knows how many of Bai Feng Ye’s strikes Wu Yun can take!”
The light in everyone’s eyes all started to blaze while staring at Bai Feng Ye.
Then, Bai Feng Ye actually waved his hand and spoke out: “I have no interesting in fighting, I am here purely to join in the crowd, I said that there is someone willing to challenge, however, it isn’t me, but my sister, Bai Yan Shan who is challenging him!”
With that said, everyone’s attention shifted to the Immortal Sword Sect’s representative, Bai Yan Shan.
Bai Yan Shan took a deep breath, she had some doubts in her mind, but she quickly got rid of them. In truth, her gaze was always on Su Yun, there was an indescribable feeling, but to say that she did not wish to fight with Su Yun was definitely untrue.
She thirsted to battle with strong cultivators. Although she was not as renowned as Valkyrie, still, she had a heart that wasn’t inferior to Valkyrie, and she was excited to be able to fight against every expert in the Mountain River List.
After Bai Yan Shan had fought a few rounds before, everyone had a whole new respect for her sword techniques. Although it was unlike Wu Yun’s earth shattering and vast might, she was not weak either, Bai Yan Shan’s Imperial Sword techniques were agile and ever changing, her sword was not like a sword but a human instead.
“Yan Shan, go up!” Bai Feng Ye laughed and said.
Bai Yan Shan nodded her head, with a stern expression she walked out of the group towards the absolute domain.
“Oh well!”
Su Yun nodded his head, he initially wanted to stop fighting, but seeing that it was Bai Yan Shan, along with the agreement with Long Xian Li, he had to fight Yan Shan, if not, wouldn’t he need to go and kowtow towards Shen Hong’s tomb? Shen Hong had killed Sword Elder, so even if he had to break his legs, he would definitely not kowtow to her.
“Su Yun, I lost to you before at Wu Shuang Jue Peak, having not met after so many years, I wonder how much have you improved.”
Bai Yan Shan took down the sword on her back and pointed it straight at Su Yun, speaking with a firm voice.
“I have an agreement with your sect elder Long Xian Li. If I am victorious against you, she have to fulfill the promise she had with me, and if I lose to you, I have to do something for her, which includes dying for what I did, so Miss Bai, if you are thinking of seeking revenge for your master Shen Hong, then please give it all you’ve got.”
Su Yun unsheathed the Death Sword, thus releasing 100 swords from the sword sheath, revolving around him.
In that moment, he looked like a Sword Sovereign King.
“Agreement?” Bai Yan Shan was startled, then thinking about how Elder Long Had been for the past few years, and her recent change, Bai Yan Shan vaguely had a sense of what it was.
“Brother-in-law, be light with your hands! In any case, she is the wife, even if you have not married!”
Just then, Bai Feng Ye who was watching shouted.
Su Yun who had a stern expression almost fell to the ground, with everyone looking at Bai Feng Ye in shock.
Bai Yan Shan’s face flushed red, she turned and stared at Bai Feng Ye: “Big brother, what nonsense are you talking about? We have already rescinded the engagement already.”
“I was just joking. I wanted to ease the tense situation between the two of you.” Bai Feng Ye laughed.
“Please abstain from speaking nonsense.”
Bai Yan Shan snorted, then turned back and stared at Su Yun: “Let’s begin, Limitless!”
Su Yun nodded, he readjusted his mind, and was ready.
Seeing the two in position, the old lady shouted loudly : “You may begin.”
It was the exact same Imperial Sword Technique, one of them controlling one flying sword, the other controlling a 100, in terms of numbers, Su Yun held the advantage, but ability did not merely account numbers.
The two of them were frantically crossing swords inside the domain, the swords in the air continued to strike, just that, although Bai Yan Shan was also a definite genius, but facing against the evildoer Su Yun, the evildoer who had been through so much in the Evil Realm.
The majority of his road of slaughter came from Evil Realm’s people, and was never restricted by rules. As long as he caught on to a weakness and flaw, he will swoop in for the kill, without any fixed path of attacks. Initially, Bai Yan Shan who could keep up with him eventually started to lose out more and more.
“So strong, we have not met for the few years, but his control over his flying swords has become even more powerful, his strength has also soared so much.” Bai Yan Shan thought in her mind.
Everyone watched intensely, the intent of the battle was far from normal. If Bai Yan Shan lost, it was not only her that would lose, but even Immortal Sword Sect’s renowned Imperial Sword Technique.
Clang.
A sword cry rang out. The Death Sword had ferociously slashed onto Bai Yan Shan’s sword, the brute force caused her to retreat in shock, churning the blood in her body.
She anxiously stopped and stabilized herself, supporting her full chest, her bright eyes stared straight at Su Yun.
“I never thought you’d be so strong!”
“Are you regretting it now?”
Su Yun suddenly laughed.
“Regret what?”
“Didn’t you say that you wanted to find a talented and strong cultivator as your cultivation partner, I wonder if the current me is able to match up to you?”
Bai Yan Shan’s face changed, but she did not lie to herself, exhaling the impure Qi, she nodded her head: “If you were like this at that point of time, I would most probably not rescind the marriage agreement. Su Yun, I do not have any emotions for anyone, including you, if you’re talking about regret, yes, I do regret it, but everything that I do is for the sake of pursuing an even higher strength, to reach a higher cultivation dao!”
“I understand.”
Su Yun nodded his head: “So, I too do not care about you rescinding the agreement, if you want to, I agree to it too! Because no matter how good looking you get, no one will like you, because to me, you’re no different from a block of wood. Compared to Qing’er, you cannot even compare to her little finger.”
When Su Yun said those words, he launched his attacked.
But the moment he said those words, it was as though he had touched on Bai Yan Shan’s Achilles’ tendon, her face was immediately flushed white, in shock she just stood in her Original position.
Seeing that, Su Yun stopped himself.
“You’re saying that I’m like a block of wood?” Her lips were slightly dry as she spoke, her eyes staring straight at him.
“Are you not? Everything you do is for your strength. Chasing the cultivation dao, even if you achieve a power like no other, even if you reach the apex of the dao, then what? So what? Everything that you do is without a purpose, if you’re not a block of wood, then what are you?”
It was hard to imagine that there would be a person like Bai Yan Shan, who was a naive fool simply for cultivation.
Even Valkyrie could not match up to her in terms of that.
Clang!
Just then, a loud and clear sound came out.
Bai Yan Shan had relaxed her hand, the sword dropping straight onto the floor, she lowered her head, seemingly thinking of something, but her face was covered with a perplexed look and consideration.
Yes, Su Yun is right, what am I chasing all these for? To seek revenge for master? But why do I not feel even an ounce of hatred? Could this just be an excuse? Aren’t I exactly like a block of wood?
Connecting with what Bai Feng Ye had said previously, Bai Yan Shan suddenly seemed to be enlightened.
When she heard that Bai Feng Ye had obtained the first rank in the previous Mountain River List, she did not feel even a tad bit of happiness, and even with the chance of meeting her brother whom she had not met for 20 years, she only felt a bit of excitement, and had no other emotion.
She could get angry, sad, happy, and would even cry, but, all these would only be as a last sentiment.
And it could not shake her state of mind for long.
She knew, she was doing it on purpose, her goal was that she hoped to be able to maintain a clear and calm heart.
“I never thought that this brat Su Yun will be much. Better than what I had imagined.” Bai Feng Ye who was at the side kept on nodding in appreciation, without losing the smile on his face.
Bai Yan Shan did not speak further, she also did not have any intention to attack. She took a deep breath, picked up her sword and turned, leaving the absolute domain.
Seeing that, Su Yun was quite surprised.
But to him, it was still considered good.
“Announcing the result of the competition round, participant Wu Yun’s victory.”
Bai Yan Shan’s actions had announced that she had given up, and thus the old lady had immediately announced the outcome.
Following that the battle with Yan Shan was over, Su Yun was determined to give up the competition and leave.
********
“Is it time? You Rong!”
Just then, the lady in green at the corner raised her head and asked the lady in the mask beside her.
“The time has just arrived.”
Hearing that, the lady in green looked at the large quantity of circle arrays behind the four officials, and said indifferently: “Then go, proceed with the plan.”
“Yes.”

"value": "Chapter 597 - Brother Insect, You Make Me Seethe With Excitement!\nThe Hail Cloud Alliance might be superstitious or following blindly, but once their higher ups issued an order, all of them were to give comprehensive assistance to help Snow Li improve her Ability X. And Snow Li’s speed of improvement was also really rapid.\nFacing such a situation, Snow Li already had no hope left. No matter how awesome Wang Zheng was it would also be useless. If there was a Golden Wheel Battle King, perhaps there would still be some hope, as Snow Li really had a superstitious belief about Wang Zheng’s Golden Wheel Battle King. It was exceptional and using the word handsome would not be sufficient to describe it.\nHowever, when she saw Wang Zheng, Snow Li was shocked. Wang Zheng’s expression was very calm, and he seemed to have no intention of giving up at all.\n“Snow, later when the battle starts, retreat to a corner and subdue your breathing. This chap is very sensitive to Ability X.”\nWang Zheng said. His gaze was fixated on that scary insect that was emitting gloomy rays of light, while that insect was also staring at Wang Zheng with a kind of strange light.\nA pair of small eyes staring against a pair of extremely large eyes.\nThere were flames that suddenly burst out from Wang Zheng, and it instantly lit up the whole place. This also caused the Zerg to look especially fierce. The most scary thing was its gaze, it was full of cunningness.\nHis was best at operating mecha, but unfortunately there would be no mecha over here.\nHowever, just not long after, Snow Li’s expression was filled with an indescribable sense of admiration. It was precisely this type of expression.\nRegardless of what was the situation, or who was his opponent, Wang Zheng just had this type of captivating expression.\nEven if he failed, he must also be a hero who had died standing.\nActually, there was desire in Snow Li’ heart. It was an unrealistic dream of a girl.\nAnd as it happened, Wang Zheng was the type who existed to satisfy her dreams in her life.\nWang Zheng started to move towards the spider Zerg, and the spider Zerg also started moving. The speed of both parties were both abnormally quick and violent.\nSnow Li was also a powerful pilot. Naturally, she knew that if someone was good at operating mecha, his physical standards in battles would also not be bad. However, mecha masters did not equate to battle masters, and battle masters also did not equate to mecha masters. There were areas of interoperation among them, but they definitely did not equate to each other.\nHowever, Snow Li became stunned very quickly.\nThe attacks of the spider Zerg were very quick and very ruthless, that strange pace was even more so deadly. As the movement of spiders was not like the movement of mankind, hence they had no blind spots. And especially for this type of abyss Zerg, they were even more unfathomable. Dealing with mankind was no difference from catching small insects.\nOutside, Redington also had not forgotten to show off a bit of his experience with his two schoolmates. “In the abyss, the spider Zergs were relatively quite hard to deal with as they have no blind spots for their movements, and this had caused huge inconvenience to us as mecha warriors. When us human warriors are in battles, we tend to seek weakness in the enemy. However, they would not be blind spots at all for this type of abyss spider Zerg.”\nA student from the first class was indeed different. Those in Class Xuan-3 were already very powerful, however, they still did not have any opportunity to get in touch with all these information. De Fulei and Ai Xiaolu naturally found it very admirable, but they already knew that the person whom Redington liked was Snow Li. Hence, unless they were looking for a lover, De Fulei and Ai Xiaolu were obviously not going to be so self-degrading. But they still admired him as Redington was really quite brilliant.\n“Weird, why aren’t they out yet?\nAi Xiaolu took a look at their team’s situation. And as the mission was still ongoing, it was also reflected on their side.\n“… Could it be that Snow Li is still fighting?” De Fulei was also stupefied. With the fighting strength of that insect, it was definitely at the level where the enemy would be crushed instantly.\nOn the other hand, Snow Li was not fighting. She finally understood that Wang Zheng’s expression did not originate from a brainless lack of fear, but rather, it was because he was just not scared of his opponent at all.\nIt was simply not possible to confront this Zerg directly. Its speed was quick and violent, its defense was astonishing, and moreover, its strength was not something that the physical body could contend against. For this type of fighting strength, even if you wanted to dodge, you would also not be able to do so. But for Wang Zheng, he could.\nThe steps of the spider Zerg were really strange. Snow Li knew very clearly that if it had been her, she would surely not had lasted for even 10 seconds. However, this Zerg had already been chasing after Wang Zheng for a few minutes, and it had not even hit his sides.\nWind Ability X!\nWhat Snow Li knew was that Wang Zheng possessed fire and cold ice abilities, as those had also brought him fame during IG. However, it had just been a short while, and now he had managed to grasp the wind Ability X.\nWang Zheng’s own speed was absolutely not high enough for him to contend against the abyss Zerg. However, his steps were actually much more nimble and sharp as compared to the spider Zerg. But at the crucial moment, he also needed to use his wind ability to speed up, and to start his attacks instantaneously.\nThis was actually a good opportunity for him to practice his control of his Ability X, and Wang Zheng had to begin with his wind attribute.\nSnow Li’s eyes were wide opened. What kind of dodging method was this? She had never heard of it. Could it be a secret technique of the Earth’s military?\nThere were many movements, but Wang Zheng did not turn his head back at all. It was like there was a pair of eyes on the back of his head, and it was extremely hair-raising every single time he dodged slightly. Snow Li’s heart was thumping fast and hard as she looked on. However, every time the abyss Zerg just kept missing by a bit, and it had nearly cut Wang Zheng into halves.\nWang Zheng did not pull apart the distance. This was not reality, the further you tried to pull apart, the faster you would die. For gigantic body types, close range would actually become an obstacle. However, the movements of this abyss Zerg were really shocking, it basically did not gave Wang Zheng any chance to strike back.\nSnow Li was starting to get nervous. She knew that Wang Zheng still had a unique skill, the hybrid abilities of wind and fire. And perhaps it would be possible for them to win by surprise!\nAfter feeling it out for several times, Wang Zheng had already found out that the outer shell of this d*mn insect also possessed defense against Ability X. Hence, for attacks to be effective, you must first destroy its shell. If there were mecha at this moment, it would have been a much better situation. The tyrannical attacks of mecha could split open the defense of the Zerg and allow the Ability X to cause fatal injuries or deaths. But now, he could only try to think of a way himself.\nWang Zheng already had an idea. Under continuous teasing, the spider Zerg had finally been driven mad. An insect would always be an insect. Even if it was the most intelligent insect, it was still an insect.\nAnd once it became mad, it gave Wang Zheng an opportunity to attack. The ground was pricked and it became a hole. In an instant, Wang Zheng stepped on the leg of the spider and soared into the air, and flames suddenly engulfed it.\nThere was a loud sound, and Wang Zheng explosively jumped backwards.\nThere was a sudden upsurge of whirlwind from his body. He waved the both of his arms, and two fire wheels started spinning. However, the flame attack just now was not to kill or injure, but it was to create a blind spot. After his continuous attempts to feel it out, he had discovered that flames would still adversely affect the eyesight of the Zerg.\nSnow Li knew what Wang Zheng was trying to do, and now what she had to do was to fight for time. She was a super genius born in the year of the Ice Dragon Dance, how could she had attempted nothing and accomplished nothing at this point in time.\nThe tactics were very clear, a direct battle was not necessary but one merely had to restrict it.\nThe abyss Zerg was already charging over frantically, but Wang Zheng was clearly not yet ready. Snow Li had already used her unique skill once, and it probably would not be of much use on this monster anyway.\nShe pressed the both of her hands onto the ground, and in an instant, a path of smooth ice mirrors was formed.\nAnd sure enough, the spider Zerg started to slip. Naturally, this place was suitable for the formation of ice mirrors. Snow Li’s reaction could not be said to be slow, utilizing Ability X at the right moment was childs play. If one only sought to learn that skill, there would be no need to come to the Elite Academy. To learn to adapt to the situation was dependent on one’s strength and this was also the difference between mankind and the Zerg.\nThis spider Zerg was also ruthless. Its claws slammed downwards, and the ice mirrors immediately broke. However, immediately after that, Snow Li used it once again. But by using it twice in a row to create such large-scale ice mirrors, Snow Li was already close to exhausting her full strength. The ice mirrors this time round was clearly thinner than the previous time, and the most crucial thing was that the learning ability of this abyss Zerg was really astonishing, it immediately scratched it with its claws.\nAs for Wang Zheng’s side, he was ready with his Windflame Wheels. In the World of Saints he could indeed do it routinely and with ease, it was much easier.\n“Attack!”\nTwo huge Windflame wheels were rolling over towards it. The abyss Zerg also stared blankly. Generally, insects would not run away, the fiercer it was, the more it would charge forward. However, this Zerg leaped into the sky instantly, and the huge Windflame wheels swept directly across, it missed!\nSnow Li’s face became even paler. It was an uncontrollable twinge of pity, it was so close.\nThe spider Zerg who had dodged the fatal attack descended from the sky. There was a noise of explosion on the ground. And at this moment, the abyss insect seemed especially fierce, and it was crashing and charging towards the both of them.\nA sneer appeared at the corner of Wang Zheng’s mouth. You idiot, did you think that I am a mere rookie.\nThe two Windflame wheels that were in the air made a u-turn. There was a slight collision, but they actually returned to attack the Zerg!\nThe abyss Zerg really did not think much of it. Even though insects were different from mankind, but they also had their own way of thinking. Missed attacks would mean that they were harmless. At this moment, the insect was charging towards Wang Zheng frantically, however, Student Wang swayed his finger relaxedly.\nIn the midst of the disorder, the two Windflame wheels hit the spider Zerg right in its middle section.\nSnow Li’s snow-white face was somewhat bright red with excitement. What a tyrannical controlling power was this! The use of hybrid abilities was inherently classified as of the most difficult level. To be able to use it was already not bad, but Wang Zheng could actually go as far as to control it, this was simply amazing!\nAnd the confident expression Wang Zheng had when he swayed his finger lightly made Snow Li’s heart thumped rapidly again. That was too cool!\nAll these while she had despised those girls who were love-struck and chasing after celebrities, but now she would no longer despise others. This was because if one really met someone whom you liked and admired, one would really not be able to control your emotions.\nA violent explosion and air billows swept across. Both Wang Zheng and Snow Li were also blown away and flew backwards.\nSnow Li dashed over happily. However, Wang Zheng’s face suddenly changed. He almost catapulted out. And holding Snow Li they promptly started rolling on the ground.\nThere were rows and rows of navy blue spurs on the ground.\nThese were spurted out from the abyss Zerg’s mouth, that guy was still alive!!!!\nAt this moment the abyss Zerg was really pretty battered. It had lost two legs, and a dark green liquid was continuously dripping out. On its back could be seen two huge cracks. It was this frightening defensive ability that had actually blocked the attacks.\nSnow Li heaved a deep sigh. This was no longer a problem about Wang Zheng’s ability, it was impossible for mankind with no mecha to defeat this type of abyss insect. If there were mecha, even if it was an ordinary mech, just now that hit would definitely have been able to defeat this insect.\nJust that there were no ifs, and now they were going to be the ones who would be defeated.\nSnow Li was being embraced by Wang Zheng. And somehow, there was actually a romantic atmosphere.\nBut unfortunately, Wang Zheng did not felt the romantic atmosphere, and there was actually a type of burning passion in his heart that was rushing out. The more dangerous and extreme the situation was, the more his blood boiled which became harder to restrain."

第十四章 虫弟，你让哥沸腾了！
冰云联盟迷信也好，盲从也罢，上面是下了命令，要全面帮助李雪诺提高x能力，李雪诺提升的速度也确实非常的快。
面对这种情况，李雪诺已经完全不抱任何希望了，就算王铮在怎么厉害也没用，如果有一架金轮斗神的话，说不定还有希望，因为李雪诺真的很迷信王铮的金轮斗神，何止一个帅字了得。
但是看到王铮的时候，李雪诺愣了愣，因为王铮的表情很平静，丝毫没有放弃的意思。
“雪诺，一会儿开战的时候，你退到角落里，把气息降到最低，这家伙对于x能力很敏感。”
王铮说道，目光盯着发着幽暗光芒的恐怖虫子，而那个虫子也用一种奇怪的光芒盯着王铮。
一双小眼睛，一对超大号眼睛。
火焰从王铮的身上轰然爆发，瞬间照亮了空间，这也让扎戈显得格外的狰狞，最可怕的是它的目光，充满了狡诈。
他最拿手的是机甲操作，可惜这里哪儿有机甲？
可是没多久，李雪诺的眼神又充满莫名的倾慕，就是这种眼神。
无论什么情况，无论对手是谁，王铮就是有那么一种让人着迷的眼神。
哪怕失败，也绝对是站着死的英雄。
其实李雪诺心中的渴望，是一种不切实际的女孩子的梦想。
偏偏王铮就是这种以梦想而生的存在。
王铮朝着蜘蛛扎戈行动了，而蜘蛛扎戈也出动了，两人的速度都异常的迅猛。
李雪诺也是强力机师，自然知道机甲操作的好，格斗水平也不会差。 但机甲大师不等同于格斗大师，格斗大师也不等于同于机甲大师，这里面会有互通的地方，但绝不等同。
但是很快李雪诺就惊呆了。
蜘蛛扎戈的攻击又快又狠，那诡异的步伐更是致命的，因为蜘蛛的移动不似人类的移动。 它们是无死角的，尤其是这种深渊扎戈，更是无解，对付人类就跟抓小虫子没什么两样。
在外面，雷丁顿也不忘向自己的两个同学显摆一下自己的经历，“深渊里面蜘蛛扎戈是比较难缠的，它们的无死角移动，给我们的机动战士带来了极大的不便，我们人类战士在战斗的时候会存在一种习惯认知。 比如我们认为的死角，可是对于这种深渊蜘蛛扎戈根本不是死角。”
一班的就是一班的，玄三班也很强了，可是还是没有机会接触这些，德芙蕾和艾小璐自然是佩服，只是她们也知道，雷丁顿喜欢的是李雪诺，除非她们想找情人。 而德芙蕾和艾小璐显然还没这么自甘堕落，可是欣赏是有的。
“奇怪，为什么还没出来？”
艾小璐看了一下队伍的情况，因为任务还在进行，所以她们这里有显示。
“……难道雪诺还在战斗？” 德芙蕾也惊呆了，以那虫子的战斗力，是秒杀级别的。
雪诺没有战斗。 她终于明白了，王铮的眼神并不是源自于无脑的无畏，而是他根本就不怕对手。
这只扎戈是根本不能正面对抗的，速度迅猛，防御惊人。
蜘蛛扎戈的步伐够诡异了，李雪诺很清楚，如果是她绝对连十秒钟都撑不过，可是这只扎戈已经追杀王铮几分钟了，都没有碰到边。
风属性x能力！
李雪诺知道的是，王铮拥有火和寒冰的力量，这也让他在ig上风光无限，可是这才多久，他就掌握了，风的力量。
王铮自身的速度是根本不足抗衡深渊扎戈，但是他的步伐却比蜘蛛扎戈灵活敏锐的多，只是关键时候需要风的力量提速，瞬间多开攻击。
这倒是可以练习控制的好机会，而王铮必须从风属性开始。
李雪诺瞪大了眼睛，这是什么闪避方式，从没有听说过，难道是地球军方的秘密技术？
很多动作，王铮根本没有回头，就像是脑后长了眼睛一样，每次都是那么的惊心动魄，看的李雪诺心脏砰砰直跳，可是每次深渊扎戈就差那么一点，差一点就能把王铮切成两半。 但差这一点，就够不到。
王铮并没有拉开距离，这不现实，拉的越开，死的越快，巨大的体型在近距离下会成为障碍，可是这只深渊扎戈的动作确实惊人，基本上没给王铮反击的机会。
李雪诺紧张起来，她知道，王铮还有一手绝招，风火复合能力，说不定可以出奇制胜！
几次试探之后，王铮已经发现，这该死的虫子外壳对于x能力也有一定的防御，所以攻击一定要破了它的防御才有效果，这时有机甲就好多了，机甲的强横攻击破开防御，让x能力造成致命杀伤，但现在只有自己想办法了。
王铮已经有了主意，不断的挑逗之下，蜘蛛扎戈终于抓狂了，虫子就是虫子，哪怕在聪明的虫子依然是虫子。
一旦疯狂起来，就给了王铮机会，地面被扎成了窟窿，瞬间，王铮踏着蜘蛛腿腾空，火焰蓦然轰了过去。
一声巨响，王铮爆退。
身上旋风陡然勇气，双臂挥动，两道火轮在转动，刚刚的火焰攻击根本不是要杀伤，而是要制造一个盲点，不断试探中，他发现火光对扎戈的眼睛还是会造成影响的。
李雪诺知道王铮要做什么，她现在要争取时间，她可是出生于冰龙飞舞之年的超级天才，这个时候怎么能无所作为。
战术很明确，不是正面战斗，而是要牵制。
深渊扎戈已经疯狂的冲了过来，但王铮显然还没准备好，李雪诺的绝招已经用过一次，而且恐怕对这个怪物也没什么用处。 但是她可是李雪诺。
双手摁在地面，瞬间一道滑溜溜的冰镜形成。 雪诺出品，绝对精品！
果然蜘蛛扎戈开始打滑了，这里的场地本来就适合制造冰镜，李雪诺的反应不可谓不快，硬拼的x能力太小儿科了，如果仅是这样，就没必要来精英学院了，临场应变最看实力，这也是人和扎戈的区别。
这蜘蛛扎戈也是凶残，爪子一阵，冰镜立刻爆裂，但是紧跟着李雪诺的再度用出，只是连续两次制造这样大范围的冰镜，李雪诺已经接近全力，但这次的冰镜显然比上次的薄，最关键的是，这深渊扎戈的学习力惊人，立刻就是一爪子抓了下去。
而王铮这边的风火轮却已经准备好，在圣徒世界里果然是轻车熟路，容易的多。
“杀！”
两道巨大的风火轮轰隆隆的杀了过去，深渊扎戈也是一愣，一般虫子是不会跑的，越是凶残越是往前冲，但是这只扎戈瞬间弹到空中，巨大的风火轮直接斜着扫过，空了！
李雪诺脸色又白了一分，无法控制的一阵惋惜，就差一点点啊。
闪过致命攻击的蜘蛛扎戈从空中落下，地面一阵爆响，此时的深渊虫子显得格外狰狞，哗啦啦啦的冲向了两人。
王铮嘴角泛起一丝冷笑，丫的，当老子是菜鸟啊。
两道风火轮在空中一个回旋，发生轻微的碰撞，竟然又杀了回来。
深渊扎戈确实没有想到，虫子虽然跟人类不同，但是它也有惯性思维，空了攻击就是无害的，这时虫子疯狂的冲向王铮，但是王同学轻松的摇了摇手指。
两道风火乱正中蜘蛛扎戈。
李雪诺雪白的脸上浮现几分兴奋的嫣红，这是多么强横的控制力，复合能力的使用本就是属于最难的范畴，能用出就不错了，王铮竟然还可以控制，这简直是神了！
而王铮那轻摇手指自信的表情，又让李雪诺小心脏砰砰直跳，太帅了！
一直以来她很看不起那些发花痴追星的女孩子，现在她在也不看轻视别人了，因为当你碰上可以让自己喜欢和佩服的人时，确实会情不自禁。
猛烈的爆炸，气浪横扫，王铮和李雪诺都被吹的飞退。
李雪诺高兴的冲了过来，但是王铮脸色一变，几乎是弹射而出，抱着李雪诺就地连忙翻滚。
地面一排排幽蓝的骨刺。
！ ！
！ 此时的深渊扎个确实够狼狈的，掉了两条腿，墨绿色的液体不停的滴答，背后两道巨大的裂痕，但是就是这恐怖的防御力竟然挡住了攻击。
李雪诺长叹一口气，这已经不是王铮的能力问题了，没有机甲人类是不可能战胜这种深渊虫子的，如果有机甲，哪怕是一架普通的机甲，刚刚这一击绝对可以击败这只虫子。
只是没有如果，现在要失败的是他们了。
李雪诺被王铮抱在怀里，不知怎么，竟然有一种浪漫的氛围。
只可惜王铮可没有这种浪漫气息，心里竟然有一种火热在涌出，越是危险，越是极端，他的血越有一种无法压抑的沸腾冲动。

Chapter 597 - Brother Insect, You Make Me Seethe With Excitement!
The Hail Cloud Alliance might be superstitious or following blindly, but once their higher ups issued an order, all of them were to give comprehensive assistance to help Snow Li improve her Ability X. And Snow Li’s speed of improvement was also really rapid.
Facing such a situation, Snow Li already had no hope left. No matter how awesome Wang Zheng was it would also be useless. If there was a Golden Wheel Battle King, perhaps there would still be some hope, as Snow Li really had a superstitious belief about Wang Zheng’s Golden Wheel Battle King. It was exceptional and using the word handsome would not be sufficient to describe it.
However, when she saw Wang Zheng, Snow Li was shocked. Wang Zheng’s expression was very calm, and he seemed to have no intention of giving up at all.
“Snow, later when the battle starts, retreat to a corner and subdue your breathing. This chap is very sensitive to Ability X.”
Wang Zheng said. His gaze was fixated on that scary insect that was emitting gloomy rays of light, while that insect was also staring at Wang Zheng with a kind of strange light.
A pair of small eyes staring against a pair of extremely large eyes.
There were flames that suddenly burst out from Wang Zheng, and it instantly lit up the whole place. This also caused the Zerg to look especially fierce. The most scary thing was its gaze, it was full of cunningness.
His was best at operating mecha, but unfortunately there would be no mecha over here.
However, just not long after, Snow Li’s expression was filled with an indescribable sense of admiration. It was precisely this type of expression.
Regardless of what was the situation, or who was his opponent, Wang Zheng just had this type of captivating expression.
Even if he failed, he must also be a hero who had died standing.
Actually, there was desire in Snow Li’ heart. It was an unrealistic dream of a girl.
And as it happened, Wang Zheng was the type who existed to satisfy her dreams in her life.
Wang Zheng started to move towards the spider Zerg, and the spider Zerg also started moving. The speed of both parties were both abnormally quick and violent.
Snow Li was also a powerful pilot. Naturally, she knew that if someone was good at operating mecha, his physical standards in battles would also not be bad. However, mecha masters did not equate to battle masters, and battle masters also did not equate to mecha masters. There were areas of interoperation among them, but they definitely did not equate to each other.
However, Snow Li became stunned very quickly.
The attacks of the spider Zerg were very quick and very ruthless, that strange pace was even more so deadly. As the movement of spiders was not like the movement of mankind, hence they had no blind spots. And especially for this type of abyss Zerg, they were even more unfathomable. Dealing with mankind was no difference from catching small insects.
Outside, Redington also had not forgotten to show off a bit of his experience with his two schoolmates. “In the abyss, the spider Zergs were relatively quite hard to deal with as they have no blind spots for their movements, and this had caused huge inconvenience to us as mecha warriors. When us human warriors are in battles, we tend to seek weakness in the enemy. However, they would not be blind spots at all for this type of abyss spider Zerg.”
A student from the first class was indeed different. Those in Class Xuan-3 were already very powerful, however, they still did not have any opportunity to get in touch with all these information. De Fulei and Ai Xiaolu naturally found it very admirable, but they already knew that the person whom Redington liked was Snow Li. Hence, unless they were looking for a lover, De Fulei and Ai Xiaolu were obviously not going to be so self-degrading. But they still admired him as Redington was really quite brilliant.
“Weird, why aren’t they out yet?
Ai Xiaolu took a look at their team’s situation. And as the mission was still ongoing, it was also reflected on their side.
“… Could it be that Snow Li is still fighting?” De Fulei was also stupefied. With the fighting strength of that insect, it was definitely at the level where the enemy would be crushed instantly.
On the other hand, Snow Li was not fighting. She finally understood that Wang Zheng’s expression did not originate from a brainless lack of fear, but rather, it was because he was just not scared of his opponent at all.
It was simply not possible to confront this Zerg directly. Its speed was quick and violent, its defense was astonishing, and moreover, its strength was not something that the physical body could contend against. For this type of fighting strength, even if you wanted to dodge, you would also not be able to do so. But for Wang Zheng, he could.
The steps of the spider Zerg were really strange. Snow Li knew very clearly that if it had been her, she would surely not had lasted for even 10 seconds. However, this Zerg had already been chasing after Wang Zheng for a few minutes, and it had not even hit his sides.
Wind Ability X!
What Snow Li knew was that Wang Zheng possessed fire and cold ice abilities, as those had also brought him fame during IG. However, it had just been a short while, and now he had managed to grasp the wind Ability X.
Wang Zheng’s own speed was absolutely not high enough for him to contend against the abyss Zerg. However, his steps were actually much more nimble and sharp as compared to the spider Zerg. But at the crucial moment, he also needed to use his wind ability to speed up, and to start his attacks instantaneously.
This was actually a good opportunity for him to practice his control of his Ability X, and Wang Zheng had to begin with his wind attribute.
Snow Li’s eyes were wide opened. What kind of dodging method was this? She had never heard of it. Could it be a secret technique of the Earth’s military?
There were many movements, but Wang Zheng did not turn his head back at all. It was like there was a pair of eyes on the back of his head, and it was extremely hair-raising every single time he dodged slightly. Snow Li’s heart was thumping fast and hard as she looked on. However, every time the abyss Zerg just kept missing by a bit, and it had nearly cut Wang Zheng into halves.
Wang Zheng did not pull apart the distance. This was not reality, the further you tried to pull apart, the faster you would die. For gigantic body types, close range would actually become an obstacle. However, the movements of this abyss Zerg were really shocking, it basically did not gave Wang Zheng any chance to strike back.
Snow Li was starting to get nervous. She knew that Wang Zheng still had a unique skill, the hybrid abilities of wind and fire. And perhaps it would be possible for them to win by surprise!
After feeling it out for several times, Wang Zheng had already found out that the outer shell of this d*mn insect also possessed defense against Ability X. Hence, for attacks to be effective, you must first destroy its shell. If there were mecha at this moment, it would have been a much better situation. The tyrannical attacks of mecha could split open the defense of the Zerg and allow the Ability X to cause fatal injuries or deaths. But now, he could only try to think of a way himself.
Wang Zheng already had an idea. Under continuous teasing, the spider Zerg had finally been driven mad. An insect would always be an insect. Even if it was the most intelligent insect, it was still an insect.
And once it became mad, it gave Wang Zheng an opportunity to attack. The ground was pricked and it became a hole. In an instant, Wang Zheng stepped on the leg of the spider and soared into the air, and flames suddenly engulfed it.
There was a loud sound, and Wang Zheng explosively jumped backwards.
There was a sudden upsurge of whirlwind from his body. He waved the both of his arms, and two fire wheels started spinning. However, the flame attack just now was not to kill or injure, but it was to create a blind spot. After his continuous attempts to feel it out, he had discovered that flames would still adversely affect the eyesight of the Zerg.
Snow Li knew what Wang Zheng was trying to do, and now what she had to do was to fight for time. She was a super genius born in the year of the Ice Dragon Dance, how could she had attempted nothing and accomplished nothing at this point in time.
The tactics were very clear, a direct battle was not necessary but one merely had to restrict it.
The abyss Zerg was already charging over frantically, but Wang Zheng was clearly not yet ready. Snow Li had already used her unique skill once, and it probably would not be of much use on this monster anyway.
She pressed the both of her hands onto the ground, and in an instant, a path of smooth ice mirrors was formed.
And sure enough, the spider Zerg started to slip. Naturally, this place was suitable for the formation of ice mirrors. Snow Li’s reaction could not be said to be slow, utilizing Ability X at the right moment was childs play. If one only sought to learn that skill, there would be no need to come to the Elite Academy. To learn to adapt to the situation was dependent on one’s strength and this was also the difference between mankind and the Zerg.
This spider Zerg was also ruthless. Its claws slammed downwards, and the ice mirrors immediately broke. However, immediately after that, Snow Li used it once again. But by using it twice in a row to create such large-scale ice mirrors, Snow Li was already close to exhausting her full strength. The ice mirrors this time round was clearly thinner than the previous time, and the most crucial thing was that the learning ability of this abyss Zerg was really astonishing, it immediately scratched it with its claws.
As for Wang Zheng’s side, he was ready with his Windflame Wheels. In the World of Saints he could indeed do it routinely and with ease, it was much easier.
“Attack!”
Two huge Windflame wheels were rolling over towards it. The abyss Zerg also stared blankly. Generally, insects would not run away, the fiercer it was, the more it would charge forward. However, this Zerg leaped into the sky instantly, and the huge Windflame wheels swept directly across, it missed!
Snow Li’s face became even paler. It was an uncontrollable twinge of pity, it was so close.
The spider Zerg who had dodged the fatal attack descended from the sky. There was a noise of explosion on the ground. And at this moment, the abyss insect seemed especially fierce, and it was crashing and charging towards the both of them.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Wang Zheng’s mouth. You idiot, did you think that I am a mere rookie.
The two Windflame wheels that were in the air made a u-turn. There was a slight collision, but they actually returned to attack the Zerg!
The abyss Zerg really did not think much of it. Even though insects were different from mankind, but they also had their own way of thinking. Missed attacks would mean that they were harmless. At this moment, the insect was charging towards Wang Zheng frantically, however, Student Wang swayed his finger relaxedly.
In the midst of the disorder, the two Windflame wheels hit the spider Zerg right in its middle section.
Snow Li’s snow-white face was somewhat bright red with excitement. What a tyrannical controlling power was this! The use of hybrid abilities was inherently classified as of the most difficult level. To be able to use it was already not bad, but Wang Zheng could actually go as far as to control it, this was simply amazing!
And the confident expression Wang Zheng had when he swayed his finger lightly made Snow Li’s heart thumped rapidly again. That was too cool!
All these while she had despised those girls who were love-struck and chasing after celebrities, but now she would no longer despise others. This was because if one really met someone whom you liked and admired, one would really not be able to control your emotions.
A violent explosion and air billows swept across. Both Wang Zheng and Snow Li were also blown away and flew backwards.
Snow Li dashed over happily. However, Wang Zheng’s face suddenly changed. He almost catapulted out. And holding Snow Li they promptly started rolling on the ground.
There were rows and rows of navy blue spurs on the ground.
These were spurted out from the abyss Zerg’s mouth, that guy was still alive!!!!
At this moment the abyss Zerg was really pretty battered. It had lost two legs, and a dark green liquid was continuously dripping out. On its back could be seen two huge cracks. It was this frightening defensive ability that had actually blocked the attacks.
Snow Li heaved a deep sigh. This was no longer a problem about Wang Zheng’s ability, it was impossible for mankind with no mecha to defeat this type of abyss insect. If there were mecha, even if it was an ordinary mech, just now that hit would definitely have been able to defeat this insect.
Just that there were no ifs, and now they were going to be the ones who would be defeated.
Snow Li was being embraced by Wang Zheng. And somehow, there was actually a romantic atmosphere.
But unfortunately, Wang Zheng did not felt the romantic atmosphere, and there was actually a type of burning passion in his heart that was rushing out. The more dangerous and extreme the situation was, the more his blood boiled which became harder to restrain.

It is this old man's responsibility to take care of you siblings.\"\n\"Back then, because this old man was in closed-door training, I actually allowed that girl Li Yue'er to be bullied by others. She even left our clan because of that. That was this old man's failure in duty. That Li Clan's Ancestral Formation is merely this old man making up for his failure.\"\n\"Rest assured. As long as this old man is here, no one in the Li Heavenly Clan will dare bully you sisters again,\" Berserker Li spoke those words very loudly.\nHe was saying those words for everyone present to hear.\nThe people from the Li Heavenly Clan also knew that those words were meant for them. Thus, they all lowered their heads silently.\nIndeed, after Li Ming died, none of them had upheld their responsibility to look after Li Yue'er. Because of that, they, to a greater or lesser degree, felt ashamed of themselves.\nSuddenly, Berserker Li turned to ask Li Ruochu, \"Ruochu, do you think the opening of this Upper Realm Gate is a good thing or a bad thing for our Li Heavenly Clan?\"\n\"If this Upper Realm Gate is connected to another Upper Realm, it would naturally be a good thing.\"\n\"However, as it is connected to the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, Ruochu is also uncertain as to whether it is actually a good thing or not,\" Li Ruochu said.\n\"Girl, there are hidden implications behind your words,\" Berserker Li said with a laugh.\n\"Ruochu wouldn't dare,\" Li Ruochu clasped her fist and lowered her head.\n\"I know that you're worried about Chu Hanxian and his son Chu Xuanyuan.\"\n\"However, Chu Hanxian has disappeared for many years. It is likely that he has already died.\"\n\"As for Chu Xuanyuan, his strength was naturally not something to look down on. However, as far as I know, their Chu Heavenly Clan's Ancestral Martial Lower Realm's forbidden area has a sort of power. That power would weaken one's strength.\"\n\"Back then, Chu Xuanyuan offended the Starfield Master Realm. For the sake of protecting their Chu Heavenly Clan's safety, he reached a compromise and allowed himself to be imprisoned in their Chu Heavenly Clan's forbidden area in the Ancestral Martial Lower Realm.\"\n\"Even if he is still alive now, his cultivation should've decreased greatly. Thus, this old man feels that the current Chu Heavenly Clan is no longer one that we need to fear,\" Berserker Li said.\n\"But senior, that Chu Xuanyuan doesn't seem to be such a foolish person, no?\"\n\"How could he really ruin his own future prospects for the Chu Heavenly Clan's safety?\" Li Ruochu asked.\n\"Humph. Li Ruochu, could it be that you're feeling that you know Chu Xuanyuan even better than Lord Berserker?\"\nRight at that moment, a voice filled with discontent was suddenly heard.\nTurning to look, the person who spoke was someone that was less than a hundred years old, a person of the younger generation.\nThat man had the appearance of a young man. That said, while he had the appearance of a young man, he had a very imposing look, was very handsome, and even his aura was something that Li Youbin and the others could not compare to. Between his eyes, he gave off the domineering aura of a ruler.\nThis man was called Li Tianyou. Apart from Li Yue'er, he was the youngest genius of the Li Heavenly Clan.\nHe was also known to be one of the Li Heavenly Clan's two geniuses with the greatest potential. The other genius that shared the same reputation as him was his biological older brother, Li Anzhi.\nOriginally, Li Tianyou and his older brother Li Anzhi were the most optimal candidates to enter the Li Clan's Ancestral Formation.\nIt was due to Li Ruochu's return that Li Yue'er obtained what should originally have gone to one of them. Because of this, Li Tianyou was extremely displeased with Li Ruochu. In fact, he was filled with hatred for her, extremely hostile toward her and would always oppose her.\n\"And here I was wondering who it was that had spoken this forcefully, so it was little brother Tianyou.\"\n\"Little brother Tianyou, are you still angry at me for being unable to enter the Li Clan's Ancestral Formation?\"\n\"Actually, I feel that you are doing more than is required. After all, the reason you were unable to enter the Li Clan's Ancestral Formation is because your talent is inferior to Yue'er’s. It has nothing to do with me,\" Li Ruochu said with a smile on her face.\n\"Bullshit! How could I be less talented than Li Yue'er?!\" Li Tianyou was immediately furious upon hearing those words. He pointed at Li Ruochu and cursed loudly.\nSeeing that glance, Li Tianyou's expression immediately changed. He had an expression as if he had fallen in hell.\n\"This old man was the one who directed the talent test that day. For you to be dissatisfied with the result, are you indicating that this old man discriminated in Li Yue'er's favor?!\" Berserker Li asked angrily.\n\"Lord Berserker, that is most definitely not Tianyou's intention. Tianyou would not dare question your test,\" Li Tianyou hurriedly half-knelt in midair.\nActually, Li Tianyou knew very well that Berserker Li was discriminating in favor of Li Yue'er. The reason for that was because that test was extremely unfair. Basically, whoever Berserker Li declared to be the strongest was deemed the strongest.\nThat said, even if he was unable to accept the result and dared to go seek out Li Ruochu and vent his anger at her, he would not dare to do the same toward Berserker Li.\n\"You shouldn't be apologizing to this old man. Instead, you should be apologizing to your older sister Ruochu,\" Berserker Li pointed to Li Ruochu.\nHowever, hearing those words, Li Tianyou immediately revealed a difficult expression.\nHe was a very unyielding person, someone with high integrity. While he was afraid of Berserker Li, he detested Li Ruochu. He would apologize to Berserker Li without any hesitation. However, if he was asked to apologize to Li Ruochu, he would find it very difficult to do.\n\"They're out,\" right at that moment, the expressions of the crowd present all changed.\nThey had noticed that the people of the younger generation that had entered the Upper Realm Gate had come out.\nHowever, they who originally had joyous expressions on their faces now revealed a change in expression.\nThe reason for that was because they had noticed that there were three people among their Li Heavenly Clan's younger generations that had just exited the Upper Realm Gate who were injured. Furthermore, one among them was the strongest of the eight, Li Youbin.\nWith no concern for their injuries, they hurriedly half-knelt in mid-air with grievance-filled expressions."

第三千五十八章
“谢什么，这都是老夫应该做的事。”
“你的父母，可是为我黎氏天族而战死，老夫本该好好照看你们姐妹的。”
“当初老夫闭关修炼，居然让黎月儿那个丫头，受人欺负，甚至离开了家族，这是老夫的失责，而黎氏祖之阵，只是老夫弥补的其一。”
“你放心，只要有老夫在，日后，在这黎氏天族内，便不会有人敢欺负你们姐妹二人。”
他这话，是说给在座的所有人听的。
而黎氏天族的众人也明白，这话是说给他们听的，所以众人都默默低下了头。
毕竟，当初黎明死后，他们也都没有做到，照顾黎月儿的责任，心中多少也是有些愧疚。
“若初，你觉得这上界之门开启，是好事还是坏事啊？”
“若是这上界之门，连着的是一个其他上界，自然是好事。”
“只是链接的乃是大千上界，这到底是不是好事，若初也是不知。” 黎若初说道。
“你这丫头，是话中有话啊。”
“若初不敢。” 黎若初抱拳说道。
“其实我知道，你担心的是楚瀚仙和楚轩辕。”
“但是楚瀚仙消失多年，多半是已经死了。”
“楚轩辕的实力，自然是不容小觑，可是据我所知，他们楚氏天族位于祖武下界的禁地内，蕴藏着一种力量，那力量会削弱人的实力。”
“当年，楚轩辕得罪了星域主界，为了保住楚氏天族，不惜委曲求全，被关押到祖武下界的禁地内。”
“现如今，他就算活着，怕也是修为大减，所以依照老夫看，楚氏天族已然不足为惧。” 黎氏战狂说道。
“前辈，只是那楚轩辕，似乎不是一个如此愚钝之人。”
“难道，他真的会为了楚氏天族的安慰，而断送自己的前程吗？” 黎若初问道。
“哼，黎若初，难道你觉得，你比战狂大人还要了解楚轩辕不成？”
可就在这时，一道充满不爽的声音，却是忽然响起。
顺声观望，那说话者竟是一个百岁以内的小辈。
这是一名少年模样的男子，虽然只是少年，可是他却器宇轩昂，英俊不凡，甚至就连气质，也远非黎幼斌等人可比，眉宇之间，更是散发着一抹王者般的霸气。 而他的修为，更是达到了四品天仙，比黎幼斌还强出了足足一品。
而此子，名为黎天佑，是当今黎氏天族中，除了黎月儿之外，年龄最小的天才。
有被认为是，黎氏天族潜力最大的两个天才之一，而另一个与他齐名的，便是他的亲生哥哥，黎暗之。
本来，这个黎天佑和他的哥哥，黎暗之都是进入黎氏祖之阵修炼的最佳人选。
只因黎若初的归来，才导致黎月儿占据了本属于他们兄弟的名额，所以这黎天佑对这黎若初，可谓非常的不爽，甚至是针锋相对。
“还以为是谁说话这么冲，原来是天佑弟弟。”
“天佑弟弟，还因为无法进入黎氏祖之阵，而生我的气呢？”
“其实，要我说，你是多此一举，毕竟无法进入黎氏祖之阵，是因为你的天赋不如月儿，而与我无关。” 黎若初笑着说道。
“放肆。” 可黎天佑此话一出，那位黎氏战狂，却是怒喝一声，并且还瞪了黎天佑一眼。
只是这一眼，顿时让那黎天佑脸色大变，那个表情，简直就如同置身地狱一般。
“当日你们的天赋测试，是老夫主持的，你对结果不满意，是在质疑老夫偏袒了黎月儿不成？” 黎氏战狂怒声问道。
“战狂大人，天佑绝对不是这个意思，天佑不敢质疑您的测试。” 黎天佑赶忙半跪在虚空之上。
其实，他很清楚，黎氏战狂就是偏袒了黎月儿，因为那个测试，很不公平，基本上就是黎氏战狂，说谁最强，谁就是最强。
可是他不服，可以去找黎若初出气，却不敢和黎氏战狂争辩。
“你不该向老夫道歉，而是应该向你若初姐姐道歉。” 黎氏战狂指着黎若初说道。
听得此话，黎天佑顿时面露为难之色。
他其实是一个有骨气之人，虽然他惧怕黎氏战狂，可是他却憎恨黎若初，让他向黎氏战狂道歉，他会毫不犹豫，可是让他向黎若初道歉，他却有些难以做到。
可就在这时，在场的所有人，都是目光一动。
他们已经注意到，进入那上界之门的小辈们出来了。
可是，原本目露喜色的他们，却是忽然神色一滞。
因为，黎氏天族的小辈出来后，竟然有三个人身带伤势，甚至其中一位，还有他们之中实力最强的，黎幼斌。 “太上长老大人，求您为我们做主啊。”
黎幼斌等八人出来后，看到黎氏战狂在，就像是找到了主心骨一样，也顾不得伤势了，赶忙半跪在虚空之上，一脸的委屈。

Chapter 3058 - Li Tianyou
"There's no need for thanks, those are merely things that this old man should do."
"Your parents died fighting for our Li Heavenly Clan. It is this old man's responsibility to take care of you siblings."
"Back then, because this old man was in closed-door training, I actually allowed that girl Li Yue'er to be bullied by others. She even left our clan because of that. That was this old man's failure in duty. That Li Clan's Ancestral Formation is merely this old man making up for his failure."
"Rest assured. As long as this old man is here, no one in the Li Heavenly Clan will dare bully you sisters again," Berserker Li spoke those words very loudly.
He was saying those words for everyone present to hear.
The people from the Li Heavenly Clan also knew that those words were meant for them. Thus, they all lowered their heads silently.
Indeed, after Li Ming died, none of them had upheld their responsibility to look after Li Yue'er. Because of that, they, to a greater or lesser degree, felt ashamed of themselves.
Suddenly, Berserker Li turned to ask Li Ruochu, "Ruochu, do you think the opening of this Upper Realm Gate is a good thing or a bad thing for our Li Heavenly Clan?"
"If this Upper Realm Gate is connected to another Upper Realm, it would naturally be a good thing."
"However, as it is connected to the Great Chiliocosm Upper Realm, Ruochu is also uncertain as to whether it is actually a good thing or not," Li Ruochu said.
"Girl, there are hidden implications behind your words," Berserker Li said with a laugh.
"Ruochu wouldn't dare," Li Ruochu clasped her fist and lowered her head.
"I know that you're worried about Chu Hanxian and his son Chu Xuanyuan."
"However, Chu Hanxian has disappeared for many years. It is likely that he has already died."
"As for Chu Xuanyuan, his strength was naturally not something to look down on. However, as far as I know, their Chu Heavenly Clan's Ancestral Martial Lower Realm's forbidden area has a sort of power. That power would weaken one's strength."
"Back then, Chu Xuanyuan offended the Starfield Master Realm. For the sake of protecting their Chu Heavenly Clan's safety, he reached a compromise and allowed himself to be imprisoned in their Chu Heavenly Clan's forbidden area in the Ancestral Martial Lower Realm."
"Even if he is still alive now, his cultivation should've decreased greatly. Thus, this old man feels that the current Chu Heavenly Clan is no longer one that we need to fear," Berserker Li said.
"But senior, that Chu Xuanyuan doesn't seem to be such a foolish person, no?"
"How could he really ruin his own future prospects for the Chu Heavenly Clan's safety?" Li Ruochu asked.
"Humph. Li Ruochu, could it be that you're feeling that you know Chu Xuanyuan even better than Lord Berserker?"
Right at that moment, a voice filled with discontent was suddenly heard.
Turning to look, the person who spoke was someone that was less than a hundred years old, a person of the younger generation.
That man had the appearance of a young man. That said, while he had the appearance of a young man, he had a very imposing look, was very handsome, and even his aura was something that Li Youbin and the others could not compare to. Between his eyes, he gave off the domineering aura of a ruler.
This man was called Li Tianyou. Apart from Li Yue'er, he was the youngest genius of the Li Heavenly Clan.
He was also known to be one of the Li Heavenly Clan's two geniuses with the greatest potential. The other genius that shared the same reputation as him was his biological older brother, Li Anzhi.
Originally, Li Tianyou and his older brother Li Anzhi were the most optimal candidates to enter the Li Clan's Ancestral Formation.
It was due to Li Ruochu's return that Li Yue'er obtained what should originally have gone to one of them. Because of this, Li Tianyou was extremely displeased with Li Ruochu. In fact, he was filled with hatred for her, extremely hostile toward her and would always oppose her.
"And here I was wondering who it was that had spoken this forcefully, so it was little brother Tianyou."
"Little brother Tianyou, are you still angry at me for being unable to enter the Li Clan's Ancestral Formation?"
"Actually, I feel that you are doing more than is required. After all, the reason you were unable to enter the Li Clan's Ancestral Formation is because your talent is inferior to Yue'er’s. It has nothing to do with me," Li Ruochu said with a smile on her face.
"Bullshit! How could I be less talented than Li Yue'er?!" Li Tianyou was immediately furious upon hearing those words. He pointed at Li Ruochu and cursed loudly.
Seeing that glance, Li Tianyou's expression immediately changed. He had an expression as if he had fallen in hell.
"This old man was the one who directed the talent test that day. For you to be dissatisfied with the result, are you indicating that this old man discriminated in Li Yue'er's favor?!" Berserker Li asked angrily.
"Lord Berserker, that is most definitely not Tianyou's intention. Tianyou would not dare question your test," Li Tianyou hurriedly half-knelt in midair.
Actually, Li Tianyou knew very well that Berserker Li was discriminating in favor of Li Yue'er. The reason for that was because that test was extremely unfair. Basically, whoever Berserker Li declared to be the strongest was deemed the strongest.
That said, even if he was unable to accept the result and dared to go seek out Li Ruochu and vent his anger at her, he would not dare to do the same toward Berserker Li.
"You shouldn't be apologizing to this old man. Instead, you should be apologizing to your older sister Ruochu," Berserker Li pointed to Li Ruochu.
However, hearing those words, Li Tianyou immediately revealed a difficult expression.
He was a very unyielding person, someone with high integrity. While he was afraid of Berserker Li, he detested Li Ruochu. He would apologize to Berserker Li without any hesitation. However, if he was asked to apologize to Li Ruochu, he would find it very difficult to do.
"They're out," right at that moment, the expressions of the crowd present all changed.
They had noticed that the people of the younger generation that had entered the Upper Realm Gate had come out.
However, they who originally had joyous expressions on their faces now revealed a change in expression.
The reason for that was because they had noticed that there were three people among their Li Heavenly Clan's younger generations that had just exited the Upper Realm Gate who were injured. Furthermore, one among them was the strongest of the eight, Li Youbin.
With no concern for their injuries, they hurriedly half-knelt in mid-air with grievance-filled expressions.

"value": "Chapter 142 - Sikong Yi\nChapter 142 - Sikong Yi Nie Li glanced at the youth that was tied to the pillar. Although he was outrageously tortured, Nie Li could still vaguely feel his unyielding eyes, and determined expression. That pair of black eyes were filled with hatred under his long hair.\nThose dark gold coloured wings of his are in fact, dragon wings that have undergone evolution by the Black Dragon bloodline. It’s much stronger than Silver Wings.\nIn Nie Li’s view, there’s no right or wrong between the hatred of two families. However, causing such torture to a youth is a little too inhumane. Nie Li and the youth’s eyes made contact, he retracted them and followed behind Sikong Hongyue.\nAbove the hall, a fat middle-aged man was sitting on his tall throne with his eyes half closed. He has a gloomy facial expression filled with chills. The luxurious robe gave him a little more of a noble aura. There are three beautiful girls by the side, helping him massage his legs and back. These three girls wore revealing clothing, their curvaceous bodies could be vaguely seen.\nNie Li could see the middle aged man’s deep eyes with a glance. His eyes had a hint of ash grey in it. Feeling the aura emitting from the man, Nie Li was slightly shocked. The man should be a Legend rank expert. However, from the looks of it, he doesn’t have much time left and was barely continuing his life with elixirs.\nThis man is the Patriarch of the Silver Winged Family, Sikong Yi.\nListening to the footsteps of Sikong Hongyue and Nie Li, he opened his eyes wide and looked towards Nie Li and Sikong Hongyue.\n“Hongyue, who is he?” Sikong Yi solemnly said. His gaze carried a hint of murderous intent at Nie Li.\n“Respects to Father, he’s called Lei Zhuo, a descendent of the Silverlit Family and accidentally came here.” Sikong Hongyue reported, bowing.\n“Silverlit Family?” Sikong Hongyue was stunned for a moment and then laughed, “The Silverlit Family has already perished within the hordes of the demon beasts, how can they have descendents?” Sikong Yi’s gaze suddenly turned murderous as they fell on Nie Li’s body, “Who exactly are you? Are you a spy from one of the other families?”\nAfter listening to her father, Sikong Hongyue also frowned. Her cold gaze also fell on Nie Li.\nFacing Sikong Yi’s murderous intent, Nie Li calmly said, “Respects to Lord Patriarch, I am indeed a descendent of the Silverlit Family. Although the main Silverlit Family is gone, two branches of the family managed to survive.”\n“Rubbish.” Sikong Yi coldly snorted, “This person is definitely a spy from one of the other families, drag him out and execute him!”\nSeveral Gold rank guards waved their spears, pointing at Nie Li. If Sikong Yi were to issue an order, Nie Li would be immediately decapitated.\nNie Li could naturally see that Sikong Yi is testing him and proudly said, “Lord Patriarch, if you were to execute me without hearing me out, I wouldn’t be convinced!”\n“Hmph, you still have some guts. If you don’t spill the beans, don’t blame me for being impolite.” Sikong Yi said, coldly snorting.\n“First, I’m not someone from this world, I come from the outside world. I can prove this!” Nie Li quickly merged with the Shadow Devil demon spirit, and his body quickly underwent some changes.\nSeeing Nie Li’s transformation, Sikong Yi’s expression slightly changed. The Shadow Devil demon spirit is not a demon beast belonging to this area. In a usual case, a demon spirit can only be preserved for six hundred years. As for those demon spirits that were previously stored were either used up, or destroyed.\nNie Li has merge with a demon spirit that he has never been seen before; therefore, it’s highly possible that it’s from the outside world.\n“Even if this demon spirit is from the outside world, it’s also unable to prove that you’re not from the other families.” Sikong Yi was still unconvinced. His expression was gloomy, making it impossible to see what he is thinking.\nNie Li lightly smiled and said, “I’m unable to prove any further; however, Lord Patriarch, the Silver Winged Family has a very big secret. When the Silver Winged Family’s members obtain the wings of the Silver Winged Thunderbird, their body’s will reject as they grow older. Generally, members of the Silver Winged Family couldn’t live for more than sixty years. Isn’t that true?”\nHearing Nie Li’s words, Sikong Yi’s eyes filled with a chilling light as he stared at Nie Li, “Who exactly are you, brat? Are you aware of what you’re saying?”\n“I am a descendent of the Silverlit Family. Regarding this matter, I’ve heard about it from my elders. Even I don’t know if this is true or not. I’m aware that once I say this, Lord Patriarch will not allow me to leave; but what if I were to say that I have the solution to it? Will Lord Patriarch think about it?” Nie Li look at Sikong Yi with a calm expression. In his mind, Sikong Yi will definitely not refuse such a temptation.\n“Solution? Haha, you joke!” Sikong Yi madly laughed. However, his laughter was slightly trembling. From that, Nie Li can see that he doesn’t entirely disregard death, “The sickness of my Silver Winged Family is unresolvable.”\n“Who says that it’s unresolvable? When my Silverlit Family was aware of this problem faced by the Silver Winged Family, we had been looking for the solution for a long time. One day, we found the solution; however, we didn’t have the enough time to let Silver Winged Family know about it before the Age of Darkness arrived, and hordes of demon beasts destroying the Silverlit Family. However, the solution has been passed down, waiting for our members to find the Silver Winged Family in order to fulfil my ancestor’s wish.”\nWith his profound knowledge, Nie Li can easily find the weaknesses of the other party and launch an attack. From Sikong Yi’s reaction, Nie Li know that he has already won.\n“Since that’s the case, give me the solution!” Sikong Yi calmly sat on his throne, look at Nie Li with his hawk-like eyes.\n“Originally, I had respects for Lord Patriarch and intended to give the solution to Lord Patriarch. However, Lord Patriarch has treated me like this. I have no choice but to think for my own safety, I seek the forgiveness of Lord Patriarch.” said Nie Li, lightly cupping his hands.\nSikong Hongyue had her brows tightly knitted together. She felt that something wasn’t right but she couldn’t point it out.\n“Rubbish. You think that based on your words, I’d believe you?” Sikong Yi said, coldly laughing.\n“I know that Patriarch Sikong might not believe me, but I have the method to prove it. The sickness of the Silver Winged Family requires seventy-six different types of herbs to refine and must be consumed for forty-nine days in order for it to have an effect. The rejection of the body is extremely painful, I have the easing method here. Patriarch Sikong can give it a try!” Nie Li’s right hand moved, and took out a bunch of herbal grass from his interspatial ring, “This is the Tianfang herb. I believe that Patriarch Sikong also knows of it. It doesn’t have any poisonous substances. It can subside the pain of Lord Patriarch. Patriarch Sikong can give it a try!”\nSikong Yi extended his right hand, catching the herbal grass. He lowered his head took a look at it. It’s indeed the Tianfang herb. There isn’t any Tianfang herb growing in this realm. When the Silver Winged Family moved into this space, they brought many medical books along with them. Within the medical books, there are records of the Tianfang herb.\nIf Nie Li took out an unknown herb, he’d definitely not try it. However, this is the Tianfang grass that he knows. It doesn’t have any poison.\nSeeing Sikong Yi hesitating, Nie Li added oil into the fire and said, “From the looks of Patriarch Sikong’s face, you should be nearing your end. So what if you have a Legend rank cultivation? When you’re dead, you’ll be nothing but bones.”\nSikong Yi coldly snorted, waved his hand, got someone to boil the medicine and said, “If you’re unable to cure my illness, don’t blame me for being impolite.”\nA moment later, the boiled medicine was given to him by a servant. After he received it, he drank it. Suddenly, Sikong Yi’s face turned ugly.\n“Father!” Sikong Hongyue anxiously shouted. A killing intent burst from her body. The long sword on her hand was placed on Nie Li’s neck, “If anything happens to my father, I’ll have you buried together with him!”\nAfter a moment, Sikong Yi exhaled a long breath. He could feel his body was much more comfortable. The pain that has been with him for so long has been relieved by a lot. He never imagined that the Tianfang grass would have such an effect.\nSikong Yi waved his hand and said, “Hongyue, stand down!”\nSikong Hongyue looked at Sikong Yi, dropped her long sword to her side and backed off.\nSikong Yi coldly said, “Since you have the solution, hand it over immediately and I will spare your death.”\nHearing Sikong Yi’s words, Nie Li laughed and said, “Since Lord Patriarch now knows the benefits of the Tianfang grass, you should believe me now. A gentleman will never stand under a wall. Lord Patriarch can’t be thinking that I’ll hand the solution over, right? If Lord Patriarch were to go back on his words, wouldn’t I be dead? Furthermore, there are many herbs in the prescription that can only be obtained in the outside world in order for it to work.”\n“Young man, are you sure you want to go against me?” Sikong Yi coldly looked at Nis Li, “I have thousands of methods to torture you with that will make you spit out the solution.”\nNie Li laughed, “Lord Patriarch, you’re old. At most, we’ll both die. If you were to force me, I could to change it a little. You think that with your age, you can survive?”\nNie Li coldly made eye contact with Sikong Yi.\nAfter a moment, Sikong Yi suddenly laughed and said, “Nephew Lei Zhuo is gutsy, I’m just testing you. You’re indeed worthy of being a descendent of the Silverlit Family. I’m happy to see that the Silverlit Family has a worthy successor!”\nSikong Yi received the Tianfang grass, nodded his head and said, “Nephew is thoughtful. In the future, the Silver Winged Family’s territory will be nephew’s home. You can go wherever you like. No one will stop you! If nephew has any needs, just speak!”"

第一百四十二章
聂离看了一眼那个被绑在石柱上的青年，虽然被折磨得已经不像话了，但是依稀可以感觉到，他那散落的长发下，那不屈的眼神，还有坚毅的神情，那双漆黑的眸子中，充满了仇恨。
他那黑色的双翼，其实是进化后带有一些黑龙血统的龙翼，比银翼要强大得多。 只是他目前的修为，还才只是黄金三星级别而已。
在聂离看来，这种家族间的仇恨，无所谓对错，但是银翼世家这般折磨这个青年，做得太灭绝人性了。
大殿之上，一个身材肥胖的中年人坐在高高的王座之上，微闭着双眸，脸色阴沉，充满了寒意，华贵的长袍令他多了几分尊贵之气，旁边三个美貌的少女帮他捶着腿和后背，这三个少女都穿着性感的丝衣，凹凸有致的身材隐约可见。
聂离一眼便看到了这个中年人深陷的眼眶，眸子里都有几分灰暗，感受着对方身上透出来的气息，心中微微一凛，对方应该是一个传奇级的强者，不过貌似已经时日无多了，勉强用某种东西续命。
这个人，便是银翼世家的族长，司空易了。
听到了司空红月和聂离的脚步声，他睁开了眼睛，看向聂离和司空红月。
“红月，此人是谁？” 司空易沉声说道，那含着淡淡杀气的目光，在聂离的身上扫过。
“回禀父皇，他叫雷卓，是银辉世家的后代，无意中来到了这里。”
“银辉世家？” 司空易愣了一下，随即哈哈狂笑了起来，“银辉世家早已湮灭在了妖兽狂潮之中，怎么可能会有后人？”
司空易的目光陡然变得杀气凛然，落在了聂离的身上，“你到底是什么人？
“回禀族长大人，我确实是银辉世家的后裔没错，虽然曾经的银辉世家已经不在了，但还是有一两个分支侥幸存活了下来。”
“胡说八道。” 司空易冷哼了一声，“此人定是外族的奸细，把他给我拉出去斩了！”
旁边几个黄金级的守卫立即挥舞长袍，指向了聂离，只要司空易一声令下，聂离立马身首异处。
聂离自然能够看出，这是司空易对自己的试探，他傲然地说道：“族长大人，若是您不听我把话说完，就要将我处死，我不服！”
“哼哼，小子倒是有几分胆色，你要是不说出个一二三来，那就休怪我不客气了。”
聂离迅速地融合了影妖妖灵，身体迅速地发生了变化。 看到聂离形态的变化，司空易神情微微一动，聂离融合的影妖妖灵，并不是这里的妖兽。
一般妖兽的妖灵，最多只能保存六百年，这个世界以前存储下来的妖灵，都已经用掉了，或者已经湮灭掉了。
聂离融合了一只他们前所未见的妖灵，很可能是外面带进来的。
“就算这个妖灵是从外面带进来的，但也无法确定，你不是其他家族派来的。” 司空易依然不为所动，神色阴沉，令人看不透他在想什么。
不过族长大人，银翼家族有一个非常大的秘密，那就是银翼家族的人，在获得银翼雷鸟的羽翼之后，随着年龄的增长，身体的排异反应会越来越大，一般银翼家族的人，都活不过六十岁，不知是也不是？”
听到聂离的话，司空易眼眸中骤然绽放出一缕寒光，盯着聂离：“你究竟是什么人？ 小子，你明不明白你在说些什么？”
“我确实是银辉世家的后代，这件事情也是从我长辈那里听说的。 不知道是不是真的，我知道我一旦说出这件事情，族长大人恐怕不会放我离开了，但是我如果说，我有解决之法，不知道族长大人怎么看？” 聂离平时着司空易，神色平静如常，想来司空易绝对不会无视这样一个诱惑。
“解决之法，哈哈，笑话！” 司空易狂笑，只是笑声中微微发颤，可见他也并不是完全无视死亡，“我们银翼世家的毛病，无人能解。”
“谁说无人能解，我银辉世家自从知道银翼世家有这样的问题之后，就一直在寻找解决之法，后来找到了解决之法，还没来得及告诉银翼世家，黑暗时代来临，妖兽狂潮爆发，银辉世家灰飞烟灭，但是那解决的办法，却是一直传到了现在，只等碰到银翼世家的人，以完成先辈的心愿。”
聂离说道，虽然是杜撰，但是煞有介事的样子。 凭借着前世渊博的知识，聂离可以轻易地找到对方身上的弱点，然后将其攻破。
从司空易的反应中，聂离明白自己已经胜券在握了。 “既然如此，那你还不把解决的方法交给我！”
“原本我对族长大人心存敬意，是想要把解决之法交给族长的，但是族长如此待我，我不得不为自己的安全考虑了，还请族长见谅。” 聂离微微拱手道。
旁边的司空红月眉头紧锁，她总觉得哪里不对劲，却又说不上来。
“花言巧语，你以为你这么说，我就相信你了么？” 司空易冷笑了一声道。
身体的排异反应十分痛苦，我这里有缓解之法，司空族长倒是可以试一试！” 聂离右手一动，从空间戒指里面拿出一把药草，“这是天方草，想必司空族长也认识，并没有毒性，可以缓解族长大人的痛苦，司空族长服下去试一试！” 说完之后，聂离将药草扔了过去。
司空易右手一握，接住药草，低头看去，确实是天方草没错，虽然这个次元空间没有天方草生长，但是银翼世家来到这个次元空间的时候，带了很多医书进来，上面对天方草还是有所记载的。
如果聂离拿出来的，是一种他完全不认识的药草，他是绝对不会轻易尝试的，但是，这是他所熟知的天方草，完全没有任何毒性。
见司空易犹豫，聂离继续添了一把火，道：“从司空族长的脸色上看，司空族长的身体，已经接近油尽灯枯的状态，纵然拥有传奇级的修为，那又能如何，死后不过是一具枯骨。”
司空易冷哼了一声，挥手让人下去煎药了，道：“若是你不能解我的病症，那就休怪我不客气了。”
片刻，煎药的下人端了一碗汤药上来，他接过之后，仰头喝下，突然之间，司空易的脸色变得极为难看。
司空红月焦急地叫了一声，身上突然释放出凛然的杀意，手中的长剑架在了聂离的脖子上，“若是我父皇有什么三长两短，我要让你陪葬！”
片刻之后，司空易长长地吐出一口浊气，他感觉到浑身的毛孔都舒爽了很多，长久以来的病痛，也是减轻了很多，没想到这不起眼的天方草，竟有如此作用。
司空易摆了摆手对司空红月道：“红月，退下！”
司空红月看了看司空易，收起了长剑退到一边。
司空易冷冷地说道：“既然你有解决的药方，还不快快献上来，我可以免你一死。”
听到司空易的话，聂离哈哈一笑道：“族长大人既然知晓了天方草的好处，那应该是信了。 君子不立危墙之下，族长大人不会觉得，我会这么把药方献出去，那族长万一反悔，我岂不是死定了？
更何况，药方上的很多药草，还要到外面的世界，才能配齐。” “年轻人，你确定你要跟我对抗到底么？”
聂离哈哈大笑，“族长大人，您老糊涂了。 大不了不过是一死罢了，您非要逼我，万一我修改其中一味药草，您老人家觉得，您还能活吗？”
聂离跟司空易冷冷对视，眼眸中锋芒毕露。
片刻之后，司空易突然哈哈大笑道：“雷卓贤侄好胆色，我刚刚不过是试一试贤侄罢了，贤侄不愧是银辉世家后人，银辉世家有后，我也是倍感欣慰！”
司空易接过天方草，不着痕迹地收了起来，点了点头道：“贤侄有心了，今后这银翼世家的领地，就是贤侄的家，贤侄爱去哪去哪，没有人会管你！

Chapter 142 - Sikong Yi
Chapter 142 - Sikong Yi Nie Li glanced at the youth that was tied to the pillar. Although he was outrageously tortured, Nie Li could still vaguely feel his unyielding eyes, and determined expression. That pair of black eyes were filled with hatred under his long hair.
Those dark gold coloured wings of his are in fact, dragon wings that have undergone evolution by the Black Dragon bloodline. It’s much stronger than Silver Wings.
In Nie Li’s view, there’s no right or wrong between the hatred of two families. However, causing such torture to a youth is a little too inhumane. Nie Li and the youth’s eyes made contact, he retracted them and followed behind Sikong Hongyue.
Above the hall, a fat middle-aged man was sitting on his tall throne with his eyes half closed. He has a gloomy facial expression filled with chills. The luxurious robe gave him a little more of a noble aura. There are three beautiful girls by the side, helping him massage his legs and back. These three girls wore revealing clothing, their curvaceous bodies could be vaguely seen.
Nie Li could see the middle aged man’s deep eyes with a glance. His eyes had a hint of ash grey in it. Feeling the aura emitting from the man, Nie Li was slightly shocked. The man should be a Legend rank expert. However, from the looks of it, he doesn’t have much time left and was barely continuing his life with elixirs.
This man is the Patriarch of the Silver Winged Family, Sikong Yi.
Listening to the footsteps of Sikong Hongyue and Nie Li, he opened his eyes wide and looked towards Nie Li and Sikong Hongyue.
“Hongyue, who is he?” Sikong Yi solemnly said. His gaze carried a hint of murderous intent at Nie Li.
“Respects to Father, he’s called Lei Zhuo, a descendent of the Silverlit Family and accidentally came here.” Sikong Hongyue reported, bowing.
“Silverlit Family?” Sikong Hongyue was stunned for a moment and then laughed, “The Silverlit Family has already perished within the hordes of the demon beasts, how can they have descendents?” Sikong Yi’s gaze suddenly turned murderous as they fell on Nie Li’s body, “Who exactly are you? Are you a spy from one of the other families?”
After listening to her father, Sikong Hongyue also frowned. Her cold gaze also fell on Nie Li.
Facing Sikong Yi’s murderous intent, Nie Li calmly said, “Respects to Lord Patriarch, I am indeed a descendent of the Silverlit Family. Although the main Silverlit Family is gone, two branches of the family managed to survive.”
“Rubbish.” Sikong Yi coldly snorted, “This person is definitely a spy from one of the other families, drag him out and execute him!”
Several Gold rank guards waved their spears, pointing at Nie Li. If Sikong Yi were to issue an order, Nie Li would be immediately decapitated.
Nie Li could naturally see that Sikong Yi is testing him and proudly said, “Lord Patriarch, if you were to execute me without hearing me out, I wouldn’t be convinced!”
“Hmph, you still have some guts. If you don’t spill the beans, don’t blame me for being impolite.” Sikong Yi said, coldly snorting.
“First, I’m not someone from this world, I come from the outside world. I can prove this!” Nie Li quickly merged with the Shadow Devil demon spirit, and his body quickly underwent some changes.
Seeing Nie Li’s transformation, Sikong Yi’s expression slightly changed. The Shadow Devil demon spirit is not a demon beast belonging to this area. In a usual case, a demon spirit can only be preserved for six hundred years. As for those demon spirits that were previously stored were either used up, or destroyed.
Nie Li has merge with a demon spirit that he has never been seen before; therefore, it’s highly possible that it’s from the outside world.
“Even if this demon spirit is from the outside world, it’s also unable to prove that you’re not from the other families.” Sikong Yi was still unconvinced. His expression was gloomy, making it impossible to see what he is thinking.
Nie Li lightly smiled and said, “I’m unable to prove any further; however, Lord Patriarch, the Silver Winged Family has a very big secret. When the Silver Winged Family’s members obtain the wings of the Silver Winged Thunderbird, their body’s will reject as they grow older. Generally, members of the Silver Winged Family couldn’t live for more than sixty years. Isn’t that true?”
Hearing Nie Li’s words, Sikong Yi’s eyes filled with a chilling light as he stared at Nie Li, “Who exactly are you, brat? Are you aware of what you’re saying?”
“I am a descendent of the Silverlit Family. Regarding this matter, I’ve heard about it from my elders. Even I don’t know if this is true or not. I’m aware that once I say this, Lord Patriarch will not allow me to leave; but what if I were to say that I have the solution to it? Will Lord Patriarch think about it?” Nie Li look at Sikong Yi with a calm expression. In his mind, Sikong Yi will definitely not refuse such a temptation.
“Solution? Haha, you joke!” Sikong Yi madly laughed. However, his laughter was slightly trembling. From that, Nie Li can see that he doesn’t entirely disregard death, “The sickness of my Silver Winged Family is unresolvable.”
“Who says that it’s unresolvable? When my Silverlit Family was aware of this problem faced by the Silver Winged Family, we had been looking for the solution for a long time. One day, we found the solution; however, we didn’t have the enough time to let Silver Winged Family know about it before the Age of Darkness arrived, and hordes of demon beasts destroying the Silverlit Family. However, the solution has been passed down, waiting for our members to find the Silver Winged Family in order to fulfil my ancestor’s wish.”
With his profound knowledge, Nie Li can easily find the weaknesses of the other party and launch an attack. From Sikong Yi’s reaction, Nie Li know that he has already won.
“Since that’s the case, give me the solution!” Sikong Yi calmly sat on his throne, look at Nie Li with his hawk-like eyes.
“Originally, I had respects for Lord Patriarch and intended to give the solution to Lord Patriarch. However, Lord Patriarch has treated me like this. I have no choice but to think for my own safety, I seek the forgiveness of Lord Patriarch.” said Nie Li, lightly cupping his hands.
Sikong Hongyue had her brows tightly knitted together. She felt that something wasn’t right but she couldn’t point it out.
“Rubbish. You think that based on your words, I’d believe you?” Sikong Yi said, coldly laughing.
“I know that Patriarch Sikong might not believe me, but I have the method to prove it. The sickness of the Silver Winged Family requires seventy-six different types of herbs to refine and must be consumed for forty-nine days in order for it to have an effect. The rejection of the body is extremely painful, I have the easing method here. Patriarch Sikong can give it a try!” Nie Li’s right hand moved, and took out a bunch of herbal grass from his interspatial ring, “This is the Tianfang herb. I believe that Patriarch Sikong also knows of it. It doesn’t have any poisonous substances. It can subside the pain of Lord Patriarch. Patriarch Sikong can give it a try!”
Sikong Yi extended his right hand, catching the herbal grass. He lowered his head took a look at it. It’s indeed the Tianfang herb. There isn’t any Tianfang herb growing in this realm. When the Silver Winged Family moved into this space, they brought many medical books along with them. Within the medical books, there are records of the Tianfang herb.
If Nie Li took out an unknown herb, he’d definitely not try it. However, this is the Tianfang grass that he knows. It doesn’t have any poison.
Seeing Sikong Yi hesitating, Nie Li added oil into the fire and said, “From the looks of Patriarch Sikong’s face, you should be nearing your end. So what if you have a Legend rank cultivation? When you’re dead, you’ll be nothing but bones.”
Sikong Yi coldly snorted, waved his hand, got someone to boil the medicine and said, “If you’re unable to cure my illness, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
A moment later, the boiled medicine was given to him by a servant. After he received it, he drank it. Suddenly, Sikong Yi’s face turned ugly.
“Father!” Sikong Hongyue anxiously shouted. A killing intent burst from her body. The long sword on her hand was placed on Nie Li’s neck, “If anything happens to my father, I’ll have you buried together with him!”
After a moment, Sikong Yi exhaled a long breath. He could feel his body was much more comfortable. The pain that has been with him for so long has been relieved by a lot. He never imagined that the Tianfang grass would have such an effect.
Sikong Yi waved his hand and said, “Hongyue, stand down!”
Sikong Hongyue looked at Sikong Yi, dropped her long sword to her side and backed off.
Sikong Yi coldly said, “Since you have the solution, hand it over immediately and I will spare your death.”
Hearing Sikong Yi’s words, Nie Li laughed and said, “Since Lord Patriarch now knows the benefits of the Tianfang grass, you should believe me now. A gentleman will never stand under a wall. Lord Patriarch can’t be thinking that I’ll hand the solution over, right? If Lord Patriarch were to go back on his words, wouldn’t I be dead? Furthermore, there are many herbs in the prescription that can only be obtained in the outside world in order for it to work.”
“Young man, are you sure you want to go against me?” Sikong Yi coldly looked at Nis Li, “I have thousands of methods to torture you with that will make you spit out the solution.”
Nie Li laughed, “Lord Patriarch, you’re old. At most, we’ll both die. If you were to force me, I could to change it a little. You think that with your age, you can survive?”
Nie Li coldly made eye contact with Sikong Yi.
After a moment, Sikong Yi suddenly laughed and said, “Nephew Lei Zhuo is gutsy, I’m just testing you. You’re indeed worthy of being a descendent of the Silverlit Family. I’m happy to see that the Silverlit Family has a worthy successor!”
Sikong Yi received the Tianfang grass, nodded his head and said, “Nephew is thoughtful. In the future, the Silver Winged Family’s territory will be nephew’s home. You can go wherever you like. No one will stop you! If nephew has any needs, just speak!”

"value": "Chapter 230 – Griffin valley\nChapter 230 – Griffin valley This battle was very difficult and Ye Xiwen did not know for how long it would continue. It continued all day and all night. Even the devil wings behind Ye Xiwen had begun to slowly fade away. In fact, his body was covered in wounds and some of the bones were broken despite having a supreme tyrant body.\nBut on the other side, Jiang Hua was also not in a good condition. His complexion looked pale because of excessive bleeding and had suffered severe trauma, not to mention his arm was also destroyed by Ye Xiwen. However, since he was on a higher level so his situation was comparatively better than Ye Xiwen.\n“Fuck this psycho!” Ye Xiwen secretly cursed him while being chased all the way for one whole day and night and did not know where to run. There was a possibility of bumping into tyrannical demon beasts, but the good thing was that he was particularly sensitive to the aura and hence was able to avoid those terrifying demon beasts, otherwise, surviving this long would have been impossible.\nJiang Hua was definitely insane and Ye Xiwen was continuously flapping the devil wings, doing his best to escape from this madman.\n“Ye Xiwen, you cannot run away, I will kill you!” Jiang Hua gritted his teeth. Although he was furious because he lost his arm and must take revenge in order settle the anger in his heart, but he also knew that he could not afford to let Ye Xiwen live. If he didn’t kill Ye Xiwen today, then he would certainly turn into a major threat in the future.\n“Only by dying can you wash away your sins!”\nOnly Ye Xiwen’s death could cleanse the anger and hatred from his heart.\n“Shut up, you lunatic! First, you tell me to join your alliance as your fellow brother, and now you are trying to kill me?” Ye Xiwen was extremely frustrated and shouted, “If you didn’t leave me alone, then I will definitely destroy you and your shitty Wan True Union!”\nYe Xiwen knew that after hearing this, Jiang Hua would certainly not let him off, but he was in a rage and couldn’t help but threatened him. After all, he had never been hunted down so badly before and that too for a shitty reason.\n“I swear, I will come back for your Wan True Union and make you all regret the decision of messing with me. You and your master should not have fucked with me!” Ye Xiwen could not control his rage and shouted in an angry voice.\nJiang Hua was disinclined to speak, just shot his palm which turned into an endless sierra of light and advanced towards Ye Xiwen.\nThe devil wings flapped incredibly fast and Ye Xiwen’s body suddenly sped up like a black lightning and vanished in the direction of a nearby mountain range.\n“Boom!” The sierra of light crashed on the ground and a huge crater appeared there.\nJiang Hua was breathing heavily and it was obvious that he must have used up a lot of energy in this attack. After a non-stop pursuit of day and night, for him, it must have been difficult to use this attack.\nHowever, his hatred for Ye Xiwen was driving him to go so far. This resentment was supporting him all the way and motivated him to pursue Ye Xiwen for so long.\nThe two sides were now involved in a competition of willpower and no one was willing to give up. They were already extremely tired, although Jiang Hua’s level was much higher than Ye Xiwen, but Ye Xiwen possessed supreme tyrant body, not to mention, he was an extremely skilled fighter and a peerless genius.\nYe Xiwen had almost used up the reserves of Zhen Yuan in his body during the chase and was constantly replenishing the consumed energy by swallowing Ling Dans and converting them into Zhen Yuan, otherwise, how could he possibly keep the devil wings activated for one whole day?\nBut Jiang Hua’s situation was no better. A single attack had left him breathless and he longer looked calm like earlier.\nEach time he attacked, his complexion would turn pale for a minute and that was why he was unable to attack continuously. He was attacking only once in a while.\nThis also allowed Ye Xiwen to catch a breath and the interval between two attacks was the best time for resting.\nA distant valley appeared in front of Ye Xiwen and countless beastly roars were originating from there in a chorus. It seemed like there was a group of demon beasts in the valley.\nSuddenly, Ye Xiwen felt intermittent waves of terrible coercion spreading out of there. Most probably, a legendary level demon beast was present in the valley.\nYe Xiwen clenched his teeth and exclaimed in his heart: “Must risk it all!”\nThe devil wings instantly flapped at a lightning speed and Ye Xiwen rushed into the valley like a black lightning.\nAt this time, Ye Xiwen finally got a good view of this valley. It was a very large valley, and spread over a stretch of several hundred miles, countless huge demon beasts were flying in flocks above the valley.\nEach of these demon beasts was almost four meters tall, had an eagle’s head, lion’s body, and four ominous claws that were exuding dark coldness.\nGriffin!\nThis mythical creature was rumored to be a very fierce beast and appeared in several myths througout the Zhen Wu Jie. In the ancient ages, they were used as a mount to fly in the sky but then slowly disappeared and were later labeled as extinct creatures. He never expected to actually see a large flock of griffins.\nMoreover, Ye Xiwen was more surprised to find out that almost every beast on this demon island possessed divinity, though some contained more and some less, but so far, he didn’t see a single exception.\nIn other words, a griffin’s body was most likely to contain divinity and this meant that griffins were also among the so-called god’s descendants. Without exception, all of the demon beast species he encountered so far on this island possessed divinity in their bodies.\nYe Xiwen was sometimes terrified to think that so many species of god’s descendants were living on this island, and some of them were considered extinct or only appeared in myths. In the end, what kind of secret was hidden on the demon island?\nConsidering the presence of god’s descendants on this island, it seemed like Ye Mo was right about this island being an immortal’s tomb. Could it be that innumerable immortals were buried on this island?\nMoreover, these griffins were very frightening, each being at truth seventh stage or truth eighth stage. Ye Xiwen could also sense the aura of some griffins of half-step legendary realm coming from the deeper parts of the valley, as well as some legendary level griffin elders.\nYe Xiwen sneered since it didn’t seem like this bastard would give up on chasing him, so Jiang Hua better not blame Ye Xiwen for what he was going to do next.\nYe Xiwen stretched out his hand and curled his fingers as if to grasp something, condensed an air ball and threw it towards the flock of griffins in the sky.\nYe Xiwen then immediately rushed into a gap in a nearby cliff and vanished from the scene.\nJiang Hua saw what Ye Xiwen did and froze for a moment, then suddenly understood what Ye Xiwen was trying to do and cursed in his heart. This Ye Xiwen was such a sly guy, to think that he would actually use such a dirty trick.\nBefore he could think of countermeasures, he saw a flock of hundreds of enraged griffins flying towards him. These griffins were enormous and looked just like dive bombers as they dived towards Jiang Hua.\nBecause they only saw Jiang Hua on the scene, so they assumed he was the culprit and the sole intruder in their area. They were oblivious about the real instigator, Ye Xiwen, and focused their rage on Jiang Hua. Not to mention, Ye Xiwen had used ‘restraining breath technique’ to hide his presence, including his aura and smell of blood, so the griffins couldn’t sense him at all.\nYe Xiwen had practiced ‘restraining breath technique’ to its peak level and it once again played a big role.\n“Ye Xiwen, you bastard!” Jiang Hua cursed loudly and immediately turned back to escape with hundred of griffins chasing from behind.\nDealing with one griffin could be disastrous, and he was being chased by so many. He couldn’t possibly dare to stay in the valley after becoming the sole target of these blood-thirsty beasts.\nIf he was caught then he would surely be torn to pieces.\nJiang Hua was chased all the way and eventually disappeared in the horizon.\nYe Xiwen was relieved, finally got rid of that psycho.\nSuddenly, the sense of pain crawled all over his whole body and attacked his brain. He was gasping and his face contorted, showing immense pain and agony.\nDuring the long pursuit, Ye Xiwen lost track of the number of times he was attacked. He was alive right now thanks to his incredibly formidable tyrant body. An ordinary person would have died in the beginning itself.\nBut even with such a tyrant body, he didn’t how many bones were broken in his body, layers of skin were peeled off. He was in a horrible condition right now.\nHowever, the good news was that he finally got rid of that lunatic. As far as the injuries were concerned, he could slowly recuperate and nurse hismelf back to health.\nAlthough recuperating right under the noses of these demon beasts was a very dangerous thing to do, but right now, he was seriously injured and had no strength to fly. There was a possibility that the enemy might be lurking outside and waiting for him to come out of the valley, so he had no choice but to stay here."

第二百三十章
这一战，非常的艰苦，叶希文也不知道是打了多久，一路从白天打到深夜之中，叶希文身后的恶魔之翼都已经快光秃秃的没有多少羽翼了，身上的伤口鲜血淋漓，连拥有霸体的叶希文的身上的骨头都断了许多根，犹如一个血人一般。
但是另外一边的江华也没有好到哪里去，他也是脸色惨白，失血过多，遭受了严重的创伤，更何况他的手臂还被叶希文生生摧毁了一条，简直是惨不忍睹，但是他的境界更高，情况比叶希文更好。
“我靠，这个疯子！” 叶希文暗自骂道，一路追了他一天，都不知道跑哪里去了，中途还遇到过恐怖级别的妖兽，不过好在叶希文对于气息特别敏感，避开了那些恐怖级别的妖兽，不然的话，叶希文只怕都撑不到现在了。
这江华简直跟疯了似地，死死的咬着他不放，叶希文已经是竭尽所能了，身后的恶魔之翼不断的拍动。
“叶希文，你跑不掉的，我一定要杀掉你！” 江华咬着牙看着叶希文说道，他来之前，绝对没有想到，自己居然会有这么大的损失，甚至于失去一条手臂，他从来没有过这样的损失，心中也是恨极了叶希文，如果不能杀死叶希文，只怕以后都会在心里留下阴影，从而难以进步。
“只有用你的生命才能洗刷你的罪孽！”
这是他的心魔，必须要除掉。 “我靠，你是疯子么？
是你们莫名其妙的要收我当小弟又要杀我！” 叶希文心中郁闷之极，被逼的爆了粗口，“别让我逃出去，不然我必灭你们这个狗屁万真盟！”
叶希文知道江华听到这个话，更加不会放过他，但是他已经气极了，从来没有被人追杀的这么惨过，还仅仅是因为自己不想加入什么狗屁的万真盟就被追杀，这些人都是一些自大狂，容不得别人有一丝一毫的反对。
“我发誓，以后有你们万真盟就没我叶希文，有我叶希文，你们就别想他妈的好过，都洗好脖子等着吧！” 叶希文被逼的破口大骂道。
江华已经懒得多说话了，只是一掌拍出，化作无边的山脉镇压了下去。
叶希文身后的恶魔之翼瞬间闪电般拍动，身形瞬间加快了许多，生生往前冲出了一里多地，直接躲开了山脉。 “轰！”
神芒山脉生生压到了地面上，直接震得地面裂开，一条无边裂缝凸显了出来。
江华喘着粗气，很显然，刚才那一招对他消耗不小，这一天一夜的追击，对他来说，也是一个非常大的考验和消耗，如果换了一般人早就放弃了。
但是他恨极了叶希文，一定要将叶希文给生生杀死，这份对叶希文的怨恨，一路支撑着他追杀了叶希文一天一夜，他从来没有吃过这么大的亏，这样的亏让他抓狂，还残了一条手臂。
现在双方就是在比拼意志力，看谁先放弃，双方都已经是疲惫至极，他境界比叶希文要高的多了，但是偏偏叶希文的霸体霸道无比，也强横无比，一直撑到了现在，虽然虽然很惨，但是并没有那种药坚持不下去的迹象。
追击了一天一夜，不仅仅是叶希文身上的真元快耗光了，在不断的补充灵丹，转化成真元，不然的话，以恶魔之翼的消耗，足够将叶希文先给生生拖垮了，何况还是叶希文这种残破的身躯。
但是江华也没好过到哪里去，这种攻击已经没有了之前的那种从容潇洒和连贯。
发出一次攻击之后，都会微带喘息，消耗非常大，脸色都惨白一分，那种连续攻击已经是做不出来了，只能是隔一段时间才发出一次。
这也让叶希文终于抓住时间好好休息了一下。
远处一处山谷出现在叶希文的面前，山谷之中一阵阵的妖兽群的吼叫声横扫出来，吼叫声横扫成声波。
一阵阵可怕的威压从其中传出，有传奇级别的妖兽在其中坐镇，那种可怕的波动，叶希文不会感觉错的。
叶希文咬着牙，低吼道：“拼了！”
叶希文身后的恶魔之翼瞬间闪电拍动，叶希文犹如一道黑色闪电给生生冲进了山谷之中。
叶希文这时候才有机会看到这山谷，只见山谷非常大，也不知道是有几百里，山谷的上方一头一头巨大的飞行妖兽在上面飞行，成群结队的飞过。
只见这些妖兽每一头都有足足四米多高，秃鹫的头颅，狮子的身体，四爪孔武有力，泛着一阵阵黝黑的寒光。
狮鹫兽！
这种在传说中的生物，传闻中是一种非常凶猛的动物，以前据说在真武界还有许多，是非常好的代步的工具，但是后来慢慢的就消失了，没想到在这里居然还能看的到这种本来应该已经灭绝了的生物。
而且让叶希文更诧异的是，要知道，这万妖岛上的妖兽，几乎每一头身体里都是蕴含着神性，只是神性的多少有区别而已，有的多有的少，但是叶希文到目前为止也没有见过有例外的。
那换句话说，这些狮鹫的身上，很有可能就有着神性，也就是这些狮鹫很可能也是某神明的后代，叶希文至今发现的妖兽的物种，没有一种例外，都是具有神性的。
都是神明的后代，叶希文有时候想想都觉得可怕，怎么会有这么多妖兽一族的神明的后代在这里出没，这万妖岛上到底蕴藏着什么样的秘密。
这天地间出现一个神明，一个不朽者都已经要惊天动地了，何况是有这么多，难道真如叶墨所说，这确实是一个不朽者的墓葬。 埋葬着无数的不朽者不成？
而且这些狮鹫都极为可怕，每一头都是真道七重八重，甚至时不时的可以看到有半步传奇级别的狮鹫飞过，在山谷深处，还有传奇级别的狮鹫老祖的气息在四溢。
正当叶希文以为能松一口气的时候，身后传来了江华飞行的声音，顿时一阵无语，这江华是打算和他同归于尽么？
叶希文随手一抓，生生抓出了一个空气球，猛的朝着天空中的一头狮鹫扔去。
然后紧接着叶希文就立刻冲到山壁中的缝隙之中，对于身材庞大的狮鹫来说，确实是很小的，但是对于叶希文来说，躲起来已经正好了。
江华看到叶希文的动作，已经精疲力尽的他愣了一下，然后才终于反应过来，顿时明白了叶希文想干什么了，顿时是破口大骂，这叶希文不是一般的不地道，居然用这么阴狠的办法，要用这些狮鹫来对付他。
没等他去想对策，已经被彻底激怒了的狮鹫成群结队，上百只身材庞大的狮鹫浩浩荡荡的犹如俯冲轰炸机一般，朝着江华猛扑了过来。
因为他们只看到了江华这么一个异类，至于始作俑者的叶希文，却没有狮鹫发现，一来他们已经被江华给吸引住仇恨了，二来叶希文也是立刻运行了敛息功，将自己的气息，包括身上的血腥味都给生生的遮盖住了。
叶希文练至大成的敛息功再一次发挥了超乎寻常的作用。
江华大骂一声，立刻转身就走，身后的上百只狮鹫已经朝着他冲了过去，他不能不走。
这些狮鹫平日里，就算他要对付其中的一只都不是那么简单，更别说这么多只一起冲了过来了。
被这些狮鹫给缠上了，就算是他也只能是饮恨，被生生撕裂的下场，没有别的下场了。
江华被这些妖兽追赶一路连滚带爬的逃走。
叶希文终于松了一口气，江华这个疯子终于走了。
顿时浑身的疼痛一下子全部侵袭上脑，直疼的他一阵呲牙咧嘴，倒吸一口冷气。
这一天一夜的逃亡之中，叶希文到底是受到了多少攻击，叶希文自己也数不清出了，也就是他霸体强横罢了，如果换成是一般人的花，只怕早就在半途中就死了。
但是即便如此他身上依然可以用惨不忍睹来形容，身上的骨头也不知道断掉了多少根，没有一处好皮，惨不忍睹。
不过好在的是，叶希文总算是摆脱了那个疯子，这些伤势他可以慢慢调养。
虽然在这些妖兽的眼皮子底下调养，是一件非常危险的事情，但是现在已经身受重伤到没力气飞动的叶希文已经没有别的选择了。 今天第一更，说好的今天十票一更，第一更到！

Chapter 230 – Griffin valley
Chapter 230 – Griffin valley This battle was very difficult and Ye Xiwen did not know for how long it would continue. It continued all day and all night. Even the devil wings behind Ye Xiwen had begun to slowly fade away. In fact, his body was covered in wounds and some of the bones were broken despite having a supreme tyrant body.
But on the other side, Jiang Hua was also not in a good condition. His complexion looked pale because of excessive bleeding and had suffered severe trauma, not to mention his arm was also destroyed by Ye Xiwen. However, since he was on a higher level so his situation was comparatively better than Ye Xiwen.
“Fuck this psycho!” Ye Xiwen secretly cursed him while being chased all the way for one whole day and night and did not know where to run. There was a possibility of bumping into tyrannical demon beasts, but the good thing was that he was particularly sensitive to the aura and hence was able to avoid those terrifying demon beasts, otherwise, surviving this long would have been impossible.
Jiang Hua was definitely insane and Ye Xiwen was continuously flapping the devil wings, doing his best to escape from this madman.
“Ye Xiwen, you cannot run away, I will kill you!” Jiang Hua gritted his teeth. Although he was furious because he lost his arm and must take revenge in order settle the anger in his heart, but he also knew that he could not afford to let Ye Xiwen live. If he didn’t kill Ye Xiwen today, then he would certainly turn into a major threat in the future.
“Only by dying can you wash away your sins!”
Only Ye Xiwen’s death could cleanse the anger and hatred from his heart.
“Shut up, you lunatic! First, you tell me to join your alliance as your fellow brother, and now you are trying to kill me?” Ye Xiwen was extremely frustrated and shouted, “If you didn’t leave me alone, then I will definitely destroy you and your shitty Wan True Union!”
Ye Xiwen knew that after hearing this, Jiang Hua would certainly not let him off, but he was in a rage and couldn’t help but threatened him. After all, he had never been hunted down so badly before and that too for a shitty reason.
“I swear, I will come back for your Wan True Union and make you all regret the decision of messing with me. You and your master should not have fucked with me!” Ye Xiwen could not control his rage and shouted in an angry voice.
Jiang Hua was disinclined to speak, just shot his palm which turned into an endless sierra of light and advanced towards Ye Xiwen.
The devil wings flapped incredibly fast and Ye Xiwen’s body suddenly sped up like a black lightning and vanished in the direction of a nearby mountain range.
“Boom!” The sierra of light crashed on the ground and a huge crater appeared there.
Jiang Hua was breathing heavily and it was obvious that he must have used up a lot of energy in this attack. After a non-stop pursuit of day and night, for him, it must have been difficult to use this attack.
However, his hatred for Ye Xiwen was driving him to go so far. This resentment was supporting him all the way and motivated him to pursue Ye Xiwen for so long.
The two sides were now involved in a competition of willpower and no one was willing to give up. They were already extremely tired, although Jiang Hua’s level was much higher than Ye Xiwen, but Ye Xiwen possessed supreme tyrant body, not to mention, he was an extremely skilled fighter and a peerless genius.
Ye Xiwen had almost used up the reserves of Zhen Yuan in his body during the chase and was constantly replenishing the consumed energy by swallowing Ling Dans and converting them into Zhen Yuan, otherwise, how could he possibly keep the devil wings activated for one whole day?
But Jiang Hua’s situation was no better. A single attack had left him breathless and he longer looked calm like earlier.
Each time he attacked, his complexion would turn pale for a minute and that was why he was unable to attack continuously. He was attacking only once in a while.
This also allowed Ye Xiwen to catch a breath and the interval between two attacks was the best time for resting.
A distant valley appeared in front of Ye Xiwen and countless beastly roars were originating from there in a chorus. It seemed like there was a group of demon beasts in the valley.
Suddenly, Ye Xiwen felt intermittent waves of terrible coercion spreading out of there. Most probably, a legendary level demon beast was present in the valley.
Ye Xiwen clenched his teeth and exclaimed in his heart: “Must risk it all!”
The devil wings instantly flapped at a lightning speed and Ye Xiwen rushed into the valley like a black lightning.
At this time, Ye Xiwen finally got a good view of this valley. It was a very large valley, and spread over a stretch of several hundred miles, countless huge demon beasts were flying in flocks above the valley.
Each of these demon beasts was almost four meters tall, had an eagle’s head, lion’s body, and four ominous claws that were exuding dark coldness.
Griffin!
This mythical creature was rumored to be a very fierce beast and appeared in several myths througout the Zhen Wu Jie. In the ancient ages, they were used as a mount to fly in the sky but then slowly disappeared and were later labeled as extinct creatures. He never expected to actually see a large flock of griffins.
Moreover, Ye Xiwen was more surprised to find out that almost every beast on this demon island possessed divinity, though some contained more and some less, but so far, he didn’t see a single exception.
In other words, a griffin’s body was most likely to contain divinity and this meant that griffins were also among the so-called god’s descendants. Without exception, all of the demon beast species he encountered so far on this island possessed divinity in their bodies.
Ye Xiwen was sometimes terrified to think that so many species of god’s descendants were living on this island, and some of them were considered extinct or only appeared in myths. In the end, what kind of secret was hidden on the demon island?
Considering the presence of god’s descendants on this island, it seemed like Ye Mo was right about this island being an immortal’s tomb. Could it be that innumerable immortals were buried on this island?
Moreover, these griffins were very frightening, each being at truth seventh stage or truth eighth stage. Ye Xiwen could also sense the aura of some griffins of half-step legendary realm coming from the deeper parts of the valley, as well as some legendary level griffin elders.
Ye Xiwen sneered since it didn’t seem like this bastard would give up on chasing him, so Jiang Hua better not blame Ye Xiwen for what he was going to do next.
Ye Xiwen stretched out his hand and curled his fingers as if to grasp something, condensed an air ball and threw it towards the flock of griffins in the sky.
Ye Xiwen then immediately rushed into a gap in a nearby cliff and vanished from the scene.
Jiang Hua saw what Ye Xiwen did and froze for a moment, then suddenly understood what Ye Xiwen was trying to do and cursed in his heart. This Ye Xiwen was such a sly guy, to think that he would actually use such a dirty trick.
Before he could think of countermeasures, he saw a flock of hundreds of enraged griffins flying towards him. These griffins were enormous and looked just like dive bombers as they dived towards Jiang Hua.
Because they only saw Jiang Hua on the scene, so they assumed he was the culprit and the sole intruder in their area. They were oblivious about the real instigator, Ye Xiwen, and focused their rage on Jiang Hua. Not to mention, Ye Xiwen had used ‘restraining breath technique’ to hide his presence, including his aura and smell of blood, so the griffins couldn’t sense him at all.
Ye Xiwen had practiced ‘restraining breath technique’ to its peak level and it once again played a big role.
“Ye Xiwen, you bastard!” Jiang Hua cursed loudly and immediately turned back to escape with hundred of griffins chasing from behind.
Dealing with one griffin could be disastrous, and he was being chased by so many. He couldn’t possibly dare to stay in the valley after becoming the sole target of these blood-thirsty beasts.
If he was caught then he would surely be torn to pieces.
Jiang Hua was chased all the way and eventually disappeared in the horizon.
Ye Xiwen was relieved, finally got rid of that psycho.
Suddenly, the sense of pain crawled all over his whole body and attacked his brain. He was gasping and his face contorted, showing immense pain and agony.
During the long pursuit, Ye Xiwen lost track of the number of times he was attacked. He was alive right now thanks to his incredibly formidable tyrant body. An ordinary person would have died in the beginning itself.
But even with such a tyrant body, he didn’t how many bones were broken in his body, layers of skin were peeled off. He was in a horrible condition right now.
However, the good news was that he finally got rid of that lunatic. As far as the injuries were concerned, he could slowly recuperate and nurse hismelf back to health.
Although recuperating right under the noses of these demon beasts was a very dangerous thing to do, but right now, he was seriously injured and had no strength to fly. There was a possibility that the enemy might be lurking outside and waiting for him to come out of the valley, so he had no choice but to stay here.

"value": "Chapter 424: You Are Destined to Be My Stepping Stone!\nChapter 424: You Are Destined to Be My Stepping Stone!\nIn the Leiting Mecha Clan's headquarters, there were currently quite a few people morosely gathering up their things. They all needed to move out of this place by 2 p.m. this afternoon.\nAccording to the academy's duel regulations, if a lower level mecha clan managed a reversal in a challenge duel, all the benefits the higher level mecha clan enjoyed would be transferred to the winning mecha clan. Therefore, this mecha clan headquarters, the largest in the military academy which represented the number one faction, would no longer belong to the Leiting Mecha Clan but would officially become the headquarters of the Lingtian Mecha Clan.\nTo that effect, the time given to the Leiting Mecha Clan to pack up and leave was just three days, and today was precisely the third day.\nVery soon, the time was close to 2 p.m. Many of the already packed clan members were about to leave when one Leiting member, hefting his things up in his arms, swept a look around this place they had spent so many years in, and a crestfallen expression appeared on his face as he sighed and said, \"Who'd have expected that we would one day leave this place in disgrace? I always thought that this would always be the place for us to grow before we graduate from the military academy.\"\nAt his words, his companion by his side could not hide his bitter smile as he said, \"Yes, our Leiting has always been the strongest mecha clan in the academy all these years, standing proud above the rest ... sadly, we actually lost in a situation where we most could not afford to lose. The decision of the regiment commander this time ...\" At this point, he suddenly clammed up, merely shaking his head. In fact, he was extremely dissatisfied with the arrangements of the regiment commander this time. He felt that Regiment Commander Qiao Ting had been too reckless in his overconfidence. If the Leiting Mecha Clan had sent out all of their best elites, how could their Leiting have lost? Then, they would not have had to leave the headquarters so pathetically today.\n\"Shh, don't say anymore. The people from Lingtian are here.\" Another member leaving together with them saw that there were people entering from the main doors now and quickly spoke up to warn them to mind their words.\nHis reminder silenced everyone instantly. Everyone's attention turned towards the main doors to focus on the group of youths stepping into the hall right at that moment.\nThere were about 15 to 16 of them, and most of them had excited smiles on their faces. It was clear to see that these hot-blooded youths were overjoyed and somewhat worked up over springing straight up to become the strongest faction of the academy in one bound. These half-grown youngsters were still rather immature and unpolished — they had not learned yet how to hide their emotions well. These radiant smiles were frankly rather irritating to the eyes of the Leiting members who had yet to leave the headquarters; animosity quickly brewed within their gazes.\n\"Hmph, what a bunch of petty victors. Hopefully they won't be slinking out of here in shame in just a month.\" A fiery-tempered Leiting member could not help but sneer at this time.\nThe military academy had ruled before that every mecha clan would have the right to challenge another mecha clan once per year, and any mecha clan could only be challenged once a month. This year, Leiting had already used up their challenge for this vengeance match, so they had no more chances. However, the members of Leiting believed that the other factions in the academy definitely would not give up this opportunity to become the first faction. A month later, there would inevitably be another mecha clan which would challenge Lingtian — it was just unclear which of the remaining three mecha clans of the top four, Tianji, Wuji, or Dwotong, would be the first to challenge Lingtian.\n\"Perhaps, they will create the record for shortest tenure as the number one faction in the academy,\" said another Leiting member mockingly. His words made many of the other Leiting members' lips curl up in disdainful smirks. They had already forgotten that the ones who had pulled them off their divine pedestal was precisely this Lingtian Mecha Clan they were so disdainful of.\nThe youths at the door did not care at all about the hostile stares. Despite their excitement, their gazes filled with the eagerness to explore their new headquarters, they did not continue to move forwards. Instead, they stopped at the door, looking around from time to time, as if waiting for someone.\nOne of the most eye-catching was an incomparably beautiful teenager. Each move and each smile of that teen were unequivocally breath-taking — even though the Leiting people were filled with animosity towards the Lingtian people, they could not deny that they had indeed been mesmerized by the youth's beauty. If they had not known that all students accepted by the First Men's Military Academy had to be male, there would certainly be a significant number of people who would be wondering right now whether the youth was a crossdressing female. Although the chest area was very flat, in this militaristic society right now, it was not uncommon for girls to be less endowed in this respect.\n\"Boss!\" A warm voice accompanied by a warm smile — many of the Leiting boys dearly wished that this cry was for them.\nBut very quickly, everyone was dealt a cold awakening. An austere youth stepped through the doors of the number one faction under the respectful gazes of the other Lingtian youths to come into the main hall. As soon as he entered the hall, the ambient temperature in the room instantly plunged to freezing point.\n\"Boss!\" When the Lingtian youths saw this austere youth, they instantly greeted him with respectful expressions.\nThe cold-faced youth swept an icy gaze over them and then nodded slowly in acknowledgement. This action appeared somewhat perfunctory, but the youths did not seem to feel that way. Rather, their uptight expressions actually relaxed considerably following the youth's actions.\nThis was the response they expected from their boss — if the expression or motion had been any different, they might perhaps be terrified, wondering whether they had done something wrong and if their boss was about to deal with them.\nThose Leiting members who had initially stared at the Lingtian group with contempt instantly tucked away the sneers on their faces at the entrance of this person. They had not forgotten that it was this person who had unseated their Thunder King from his throne.\nThat's right, this frigid teenager was our main protagonist Ling Lan. She was here today to accept the handover of the number one faction's headquarters. As soon as the transfer was done, the Lingtian Mecha Clan would officially become the number one faction of the military academy. Of course, to secure this position was not easy — they would have to accept and weather the consecutive challenges of the other factions in the academy in the subsequent few months, but what Ling Lan feared least was challenge.\nThree people trailed behind Ling Lan; they were the three other regiment commanders of the Lingtian Mecha Clan, Qi Long, Wu Jiong, and Li Yingjie.\nWu Jiong followed Ling Lan into the hall and took a look around. Not seeing the person he was looking for, he quickly stepped forward to come up to Ling Lan's side and said with a soft chuckle, \"Boss Lan, Qiao Ting isn't here yet.\" Wu Jiong wondered if Qiao Ting was too embarrassed to come earlier.\nLing Lan's lips quirked. \"When 2 o'clock comes, he will definitely appear.\" The academy would not permit its rules to be broken — no matter how much Qiao Ting resisted, he would still come to carry out this responsibility at that final moment.\n\"When Qiao Ting challenged us, he must never have imagined this moment. He's definitely too embarrassed to come early, hahaha ...\" Li Yingjie heard the conversation between Wu Jiong and Ling Lan, and he chimed in with smug laughter.\nIn contrast to Wu Jiong's and Ling Lan's restrained manner, Li Yingjie's voice was obviously much louder. Those Leiting members who had yet to leave the hall were all enraged by his arrogance — some of them even looked about to charge over to punch him, but they were held back by their companions. All of a sudden, the atmosphere of the entire hall was tense.\nLing Lan and Wu Jiong sweatdropped. This Li Yingjie was an absolute troublemaker — they were here to accept the transfer of the headquarters and not to instigate a fight ...\nTrailing behind them lazily, Qi Long sensed the sudden shift in the hall's atmosphere and his spirits rallied instantly. He looked around with lively eyes, his earlier indolence completely swept away. He licked his lips and said excitedly, \"Boss, is there going to be a fight?\"\nBored as he was, he had not paid any attention to Ling Lan and the others' conversations and so did not really know what was going on. However, his beast-like instinct had alerted him to the potential of a fight.\nWhether it was with the New Cadet Regiment back then or the Lingtian Mecha Clan now, Ling Lan had always held a laissez-faire attitude as a general. All clan internal affairs were handled by Wu Jiong, Qi Long, and Li Yingjie. Unfortunately, the haughty Li Yingjie would stir up some trouble every so often, and when he could not settle the matter himself, Wu Jiong and Qi Long would be dragged in as well to help him clean up the mess. On the other hand, although Qi Long did not cause as much trouble as Li Yingjie did, he was perpetually at the combat arena. To ask him to handle the affairs of the faction ... fine, to pry him out of the combat arena was even harder than directly asking Boss Lan for help in Wu Jiong's opinion.\nThen again, to ask Boss Lan for help ... Wu Jiong felt that he really had no way of withstanding that piercing gaze capable of freezing a person to death. Every time he had no other choice but to seek Boss Lan out to resolve a problem, Wu Jiong felt that his lifespan had been reduced by at least five years. So that he did not die before his time, he decided that it was better for him to just put in the extra effort himself.\nWu Jiong's mournful gaze was resolutely ignored by Ling Lan. She pretended that she did not know anything — she would not step into this stinking puddle of water 1 .\nRight at that moment, the elevator at the end of the hall suddenly dinged. The elevator doors opened, and a handsome youth with chiselled features appeared before the crowd. His initially domineering and confident brow now carried a touch of gloom, his entire being seeming somewhat diminished. He was the present regiment commander of Leiting, Qiao Ting.\nWhen he saw Ling Lan standing by the doors, his gaze flickered and he hesitated for a moment. But he quickly shook it off and strode out of the elevator to come before Ling Lan.\nThe two of them faced each other. Even though Ling Lan was half a head shorter than Qiao Ting, she did not lose to the other in terms of force of presence. Rather, the sharp chill surrounding Ling Lan was even more evident through the encounter — for a brief moment, the other people there even had the impression that the Thunder King was being suppressed by Ling Lan.\nAt this sight, Ling Lan's eyes narrowed. Her already cold and expressionless face became even more forbidding. Those who understood Ling Lan well would know that this was an indication that Ling Lan had become even more serious and vigilant.\nThe two youths did not say anything, merely staring at each other in silence for one to two minutes. The atmosphere in the entire hall was unbelievably heavy — some people with lower tolerance found their bodies beginning to tremble, pressed so far by the two's auras that they were on the verge of breaking down.\nJust when everyone thought that the two youths would continue their silent confrontation indefinitely, Qiao Ting spoke up first. \"You have come.\" Perhaps only Qiao Ting knew the full meaning behind these simple three words.\nThe moment Qiao Ting opened his mouth to speak, the heavy atmosphere was swept away. Those who were on the brink of collapse due to the pressure from the two youths abruptly felt the pressure ease and were revived.\n\"I have come,\" replied Ling Lan, likewise three words in return. Perhaps only Ling Lan herself understood the true meaning behind these three words as well.\nQiao Ting raised his eyebrows slightly at her words and said calmly, \"Follow me.\" Having said that, he turned to leave, unconcerned whether Ling Lan and the rest could keep up.\nQiao Ting's attitude made the expressions of the Lingtian members change. Rage rose in many of their eyes, but all of this died away under Ling Lan's cool gaze. Everyone could read the meaning in Ling Lan's eyes — she was telling all of them to be quiet and to let her handle this.\nThe two of them entered the elevator and when the elevator doors closed, everyone left behind released a sigh of relief in unplanned unison. Qiao Ting and Ling Lan's forces of presence were just too powerful — being in the same room with them was really too stressful.\nIn the elevator, the two youths continued to be silent. Ling Lan looked at the flashing numbers of the elevator, waiting for the final floor they would reach. Right at this moment, Qiao Ting spoke up unexpectedly, \"Next year, I will not lose again.\"\nLing Lan glanced over at him in surprise, but before she could say anything, the elevator dinged and they had arrived at their destination floor.\nQiao Ting did not require Ling Lan to respond to his statement; he had only wanted to tell Ling Lan his determination. When the elevator doors opened, Qiao Ting immediately walked out of the elevator.\nSeeing this, Ling Lan quirked an eyebrow. She had not expected that Qiao Ting would actually think to fight her again in the academy. Although the military academy was a six-year system, all cadets would typically leave the academy in their final year. They would either enter an army division for practical training, or sign up for an adventuring group to participate in interstellar expeditions to gain practical experience — almost no one would continue to remain at the military academy. These words of Qiao Ting was clearly intended to tell Ling Lan that, next year, he would still be at the military academy to fight her again.\nLing Lan did not understand why Qiao Ting would want to do this. She seemed to remember that Qiao Ting had already caught the Third Marshal's eye and would be joining the Third Division this year. It went without question that early admittance into an army division would be extremely beneficial; to Qiao Ting's future development. Now, in order to fight her again, Qiao Ting was actually planning to delay his enlistment ... was this truly necessary?\nLing Lan was rather puzzled, but she did not pause her footsteps. Following closely behind Qiao Ting, they soon arrived at the central control room of the building. Qiao Ting pushed the door open, and Ling Lan saw that there was one other Leiting member still seated in front of a control panel in the central control room.\n\"Regiment Commander, you're here.\" When that person saw Qiao Ting, he immediately leapt to his feet. Catching sight of Ling Lan standing behind Qiao Ting, his eyes turned dim, and there was even a trace of indignation contained within them.\nIt looked like the people of Leiting still felt resentful that their headquarters had been taken by Lingtian. They were not convinced of their defeat, believing that their regiment commander had just taken the enemy too lightly. Along with other miscellaneous reasons, Lingtian had just had the luck of the devil that day.\nQiao Ting was well aware of this sentiment in his people. In fact, he too was unconvinced by his loss. However, a defeat was a defeat — Leiting's loss of the title of number one faction had already become fact and was not something they could shy away from. \"Prepare transferral procedures.\"\nThat person's face stiffened, and with a trace of unwillingness, he once again sat back before the control panel and began the operations to execute the transferral procedures.\nSoon, Qiao Ting had wiped all the fingerprints belonging to the current regiment commander of the mecha clan from the headquarters' systems. After Ling Lan's fingerprints were successfully input into the system, the new owner of the headquarters would become the Lingtian Mecha Clan.\nWatching as the optical supercomputer declared the completion of the procedure, Qiao Ting zoned out for the first time. He quickly got a hold of himself, however, and turned his head to say to Ling Lan, \"Regiment Commander Ling, I hope that you will be able to hold onto this place for this year. Don't make me have to fight an extra challenge.\" Clearly, Qiao Ting did not think much of the Lingtian Mecha Clan.\nLing Lan snapped her head around, her gaze piercing straight through Qiao Ting as she answered coldly, \"Don't worry. Before I graduate, this place will only belong to the Lingtian Mecha Clan. No other mecha clan will be able to touch it.\" Ling Lan absolutely would not allow anyone to look down on her companions or her faction. Her gaze pressed down on Qiao Ting as she said with full conviction, \"I, Ling Lan, will be waiting for your challenge!\"\nLing Lan's attitude was clearly telling Qiao Ting that, she, as the winner, was king, while Qiao Ting, as the loser, would be the challenger in a year's time.\nLing Lan did not seem to be satisfied, for she continued to bear down on Qiao Ting, saying, \"This academy has only one king, and that is I, Ling Lan. Three days ago, you lost to me, and in future, you also will not win. I will use the truth to tell you that you are destined to be my stepping stone.\"\nWhen the words 'stepping stone' were uttered, Qiao Ting could no longer tolerate the situation. He threw an angry punch at Ling Lan.\nWith a 'smack', Ling Lan stopped Qiao Ting's fist with an open palm. Two unseen forces collided fiercely, sending the Leiting member seated at the control panel flying outwards to crash into the floor.\nThat member climbed up with difficulty, a trickle of blood flowing down from the corner of his lips. He stared in horror at the two people still connected by a palm and a fist. His physical skills were already at the peak stage of Refinement, yet he had still been sent flying and had suffered some minor internal injury just from being in the range of the aftershock of the two hidden forces at play. Just how strong were these two's physical skills?!"

第四百二十四章 你注定是我的踏脚石！
第四百二十四章：你注定是我的踏脚石！
雷霆机甲团总部，此时正有不少人一脸抑郁地收拾着自己的东西，他们必须在今天下午2点之前要全面撤出这里。
按照军校决斗规定，若决斗中，低级机甲团逆袭成功，高级机甲团的一切福利，将全部由战胜团接收，所以，这代表第一势力，军校最大最磅礴的机甲团总部，将不再属于雷霆机甲团，将正式成为凌天机甲团的总部。
而给雷霆机甲团收拾打包东西的时间，只有三日，而今天正是第三日。
很快，时间接近下午2点，不少已经收拾好东西的团员正准备离开，其中一个雷霆团员，抱起自己的东西，环视了一圈这个已经待了几年的地方，脸上露出失落的神情，叹道：“没想到，有一天，我们会从这里灰溜溜地离开，我一直以为，从军校毕业之前，这里会是我们的成长的地方。”
身边的同伴听到他的话，忍不住苦笑道：“是啊，要知道，我们雷霆，这么多年来，一直是是军校最强大的机甲团，傲视群雄……可惜，我们在最不可能输的情况下，竟然输了，团长这次的决定……”说到这里，他突然闭口，只是摇了摇头。 事实上，他对团长这次决定的安排是十分不满的，认为乔霆团长太过自信盲目，要是雷霆机甲团精英尽出，他们雷霆又怎么可能会输呢？
“嘘，别说了，凌天的人来了。” 一起离开的团员，看到大门口有人进来了，便开口提醒大家谨言。
他的提醒，顿时让大家收住了声，所有人的视线齐刷刷地投向大门。 集中在此时正步入大堂中的一群少年身上。
他们大约十五六人，大部分人的脸上都露出兴奋的笑容，可见一步登天成为军校的最强势力，让这群热血少年欣喜若狂，有些激动了。 半大的少年，有些稚嫩的他们还未学会如何隐藏自己的心情。
“哼，真是小人得志，希望他们下个月不要灰溜溜地从这里离开。” 一个火爆的雷霆团员，此时忍不住低声冷笑起来。
每月只能被挑战一次。
今年，雷霆已经没有机会，复仇雪恨，但雷霆的团员们相信，军校的其他势力，绝对不会放弃获得第一势力的机会，过一个月之后。 必然会有其他机甲团向凌天挑战，就是不知道。
门口的少年根本不在意身边这些敌视的眼光，他们尽管十分兴奋，眼中充满想要进入探究总部的**，却没有继续前进，反而停在大门口，不时地回头张望，似乎在等待着什么人。
其中最惹眼的是一位美丽无比的少年，一娉一笑无一不勾人心魄，尽管雷霆的人十分敌视凌天的人，却无法否认，他们的确被那位少年惊艳到了。 要不是知道能上第一男子军校的都是男子，肯定会有不少人怀疑此人会不会是女扮男装，尽管胸部很平，可在全民皆兵的这个社会中，这样的太平公主为数其实还是不少的。
“老大！” 暖暖的声音，配合着暖暖的笑容，让不少雷霆的人恨不得这一声叫的是自己。
但很快，所有人都冻醒了。 一个冷冽的少年在少年们敬仰的眼神中，步入了第一势力的大门，来到大堂中，他一进入，似乎整个大堂的温度直接降到了冰点。
“老大！” 凌天的少年们看到这冷冽少年，顿时神情恭敬地齐声喊道。
冷冽少年冷眼扫视了他们一圈，缓缓地点了一下头做了回应，这动作显得有些敷衍，可少年们却并未有这种感觉，反而因为这个动作，原本拘谨的神情顿时放松了许多。
这才是他们老大应该有的表情与动作，要是换一个表情与动作，他们或许会惊惧自己是不是做了什么坏事，自家老大要准备收拾他们了。
原本对这群凌天少年眼露不屑的雷霆团员们，看到此人进来，顿时收敛了脸上的冷笑。 他们可没忘记，就是这人，将他们的雷王直接斩落马下。
没错，这位冷冽的少年，正是我们的主人公凌蘭，她今天来这里，是为了接受第一势力的总部，一旦接受了这里，就代表凌天机甲团正式成为军校的第一势力，当然要想坐稳这个位置，并不容易，接下去的几个月，他们要接受军校其他势力的轮番挑战，不过凌蘭最不惧怕的就是挑战。
凌蘭的身后还跟着三个人，正是凌天机甲团的其他三个团长，齐隆、武炅、李英杰。
武炅跟在凌蘭身后走入大堂，他扫了一圈大堂，没有看到目标人。 他赶紧上前一步，走到凌蘭的身边，低声笑道：“蘭老大，乔霆还没来。” 武炅在想，会不会乔霆觉得丢脸，所以才没提早出现。
凌蘭嘴角微微一挑：“到了两点，他一定会出现的。” 军校可不允许规则被破坏，就算乔霆再抗拒，也会在最后时刻。 办理这件事情。
“乔霆挑战我们的时候，肯定没想到这一刻，他肯定没脸早来，哈哈哈……”李英杰听到武炅与凌蘭的对话，张狂的大笑起来。
相比武炅与凌蘭的收敛，李英杰的声音明显就大了许多。 大堂中还未离开的雷霆团员都被他的嚣张给触怒了，有几个甚至想捏着拳头想来上来揍人，却被冷静的伙伴拉住，一时之间，整个大堂的气氛顿时变得紧张起来。
这让凌蘭与武炅额头顿时黑线数根，这李英杰绝壁是个惹事的货。 跟在最后面整个人显得十分懒散的齐隆。
突然感觉大堂气氛变得紧张起来，顿时精神一振，炯炯有神的目光投向四周，一扫进来时的慵懒，他舔了舔嘴唇，兴奋地道：“老大，是不是有架打了？” 感觉无聊的他。
没有注意凌蘭他们的对话，并不清楚发生了什么事。 只是野兽的直觉让他知道，有架打了。
无论是新生团还是凌天机甲团，凌蘭都是甩手将军，团内一切事情都是武炅、齐隆、李英杰三人负责，可惜，嚣张的李英杰总会时不时惹些麻烦事，有时搞不定，还要武炅齐隆他们出面收拾残局，而齐隆，虽然不会向李英杰那么会惹事，可却一直泡在格斗场，想找他出来处理团队事务……好吧，想要拉他从格斗场出来，武炅认为比找蘭老大出面帮忙还要难。
可找蘭老大帮忙吧，武炅认为，他实在没办法顶住那可以冻死人的犀利眼神，每次没办法找蘭老大解决的时候，武炅认为他的寿命最起码减少了五年，为了不英年早逝，他决定还是自己操劳点吧。
武炅哀怨的小眼神，凌蘭果断无视，假装自己什么都不知道，她才不趟这摊烂水。
就在这个时候，大堂尽头的电梯厢，突然叮的一声，电梯门突然打开，一个线条硬朗的俊朗青年出现在众人面前，原本应该霸气张扬自信的眉眼，现在带着一丝郁色，整个人变得有些颓色，他正是雷霆现任团长乔霆。
他看到大门口处的凌蘭，眼神闪了闪，迟疑了一下，这才开步走出电梯，来到了凌蘭的面前。
两人面对面，尽管凌蘭比乔霆矮了半个头，但在气势上，并不弱于对方，反而凌蘭身上冷冽的寒气，显得更为醒目，一时之间，让人有种错觉，雷王被凌蘭给压制住了。
凌蘭见状，眼神微微一凝，原本冰寒没有表情的脸庞，变得更为冷寒，若是了解凌蘭的人，便会知道，这表现凌蘭变得更为谨慎认真了。
两人都没有说法，默视了一两分钟，整个大堂的气氛，变得凝重无比，有些承受能力差的人，身体开始微微颤抖，被两人的迫力压制的快要崩溃了。
正当所有人认为两人会继续沉默对抗下去的时候，乔霆首先开口了：“你来了。” 这简单的三个字，或许只有乔霆知道是什么意思。
乔霆一开口，整个凝重的气氛突然一扫而光，原本快要被两人的迫力弄的崩溃的人，突然感觉压力一轻，整个人复活了过来。
“我来了。” 凌蘭回答了，同样三个字，或许也只有凌蘭自己明白，这三个字的真正含义。
乔霆闻言眉头微微一翘，他淡淡地丢下一句：“跟我来吧。” 说完便转身离开，并不管凌蘭他们是否真的跟上。
乔霆的态度，让凌天的人脸色一变，不少人眼中更是升起怒火，但是这一切在凌蘭的冷眼下，悄然消失了，所有人都知道凌蘭眼中的意思，那就是所有人都安静，这件事由她来解决。 凌蘭用眼神安抚了团员们，然后坚定地踏出脚步，稳稳地跟在乔霆身后。
两人走入电梯，当电梯门关闭，所有人都不约而同地舒了一口气，乔霆与凌蘭的气势实在太过强大，跟他们同处一室，实在太有压力了。
电梯中，两人继续沉默着，凌蘭看着电梯闪烁的数字，等待最终他们要到达的篓楼层，就在这时，乔霆出乎意料的说话了：“明年，我不会再输。”
凌蘭惊讶地一抬眼，还未说话，电梯叮的一声，已经到了他们要到的楼层。
乔霆说这话，并不需要凌蘭回答什么，他只是告诉凌蘭他的决定，见到电梯门打开，便直接走出电梯。
凌蘭见状，眉头轻轻一挑，她没想到乔霆竟然还想在军校中与她一战，虽说军校是六年制，可所有军校生在最后一年，都离开军校，或是进入军队实习演练，或是加盟冒险团进行星际冒险获得实战经验，几乎没有人会继续留在军校，而乔霆这句话明显告诉凌蘭，明年，他还会在军校与她再战一场。
凌蘭不明白乔霆为何要如此，她似乎记得，乔霆已经被第三元帅看中，今年就会加入第三军团军，毫无疑问提早进入军队，对乔霆的未来发展是极有好处。 现在乔霆为了与她一战，竟然推迟加入军团，这真的有必要吗？
凌蘭有些困惑，但并没有停顿自己的步伐，她紧跟乔霆身后，来到了这座建筑大楼的主控室。 乔霆一推门，凌蘭就看到主控室中还有一位雷霆的团员正坐在一个操控台前。 “团长，你来了。”
那人看到乔霆，马上从座位上站了起来，看到乔霆身后的凌蘭，眼神猛地一暗，甚至还有一丝愤慨隐含其中。
看来总部被凌天拿去，雷霆的人还是心有怨气的，他们并不服气，总认为是团长太过轻敌，各种原因之下，让凌天走了狗屎运。
乔霆也清楚这一点，事实上，他也输的不服，可输了就是输了，雷霆丢掉第一势力的称号已经成为事实，并不容许他们回避：“准备移交程序。”
那人脸色顿时一僵，带着一丝不情愿，再次坐到操控台前，开始他的操作，进行总部移交程序。
很快，乔霆清除了总部目前所属机甲团团长的掌纹，当凌蘭的掌纹被成功输入，代表总部的拥有者变成了凌天机甲团。
看到光脑宣告移交程序完成，乔霆第一次出现了失神状态，很快他恢复了过来，转头对凌蘭说道：“凌团长，希望今年你能守住这里，不要让我多战一场。” 明显，乔霆看不上凌天机甲团。
凌蘭猛地一回头，犀利的眼神直射乔霆，她冷冷地回道：“放心，在我毕业之前，这里只会属于凌天机甲团，任何机甲团都无法染指它。” 凌蘭绝不允许任何人轻视她的伙伴，她的团队，她逼视着乔霆，迫力十足地道，“我凌蘭，等着你的挑战！”
凌蘭这态度明显告诉乔霆，她胜者为王，而乔霆却是败者为寇。
凌蘭似乎还未满足，她继续打击乔霆道：“这个军校，只有一个王，那就是我凌蘭，三天前，你输给了我，以后，你也不会赢，我会用事实告诉你，你注定是我的踏脚石。”
踏脚石三个字一出，乔霆再也无法忍受，一个拳头愤怒地击了过去。
“啪”的一声，凌蘭直接将乔霆的拳头用手掌挡住，两股暗劲激烈碰撞，让坐在操控台上的雷霆团员整个人飞了出去，狠狠地砸在了地上。
他艰苦地爬了起来，嘴角露出一缕鲜血，双眼惊惧地看着一拳一掌抵在一起的两人。 以他入微顶级的体术，只是受到两人暗劲的余波，竟然被震飞了出去，受了不小的内伤，这两人的体术究竟有多强。

Chapter 424: You Are Destined to Be My Stepping Stone!
Chapter 424: You Are Destined to Be My Stepping Stone!
In the Leiting Mecha Clan's headquarters, there were currently quite a few people morosely gathering up their things. They all needed to move out of this place by 2 p.m. this afternoon.
According to the academy's duel regulations, if a lower level mecha clan managed a reversal in a challenge duel, all the benefits the higher level mecha clan enjoyed would be transferred to the winning mecha clan. Therefore, this mecha clan headquarters, the largest in the military academy which represented the number one faction, would no longer belong to the Leiting Mecha Clan but would officially become the headquarters of the Lingtian Mecha Clan.
To that effect, the time given to the Leiting Mecha Clan to pack up and leave was just three days, and today was precisely the third day.
Very soon, the time was close to 2 p.m. Many of the already packed clan members were about to leave when one Leiting member, hefting his things up in his arms, swept a look around this place they had spent so many years in, and a crestfallen expression appeared on his face as he sighed and said, "Who'd have expected that we would one day leave this place in disgrace? I always thought that this would always be the place for us to grow before we graduate from the military academy."
At his words, his companion by his side could not hide his bitter smile as he said, "Yes, our Leiting has always been the strongest mecha clan in the academy all these years, standing proud above the rest ... sadly, we actually lost in a situation where we most could not afford to lose. The decision of the regiment commander this time ..." At this point, he suddenly clammed up, merely shaking his head. In fact, he was extremely dissatisfied with the arrangements of the regiment commander this time. He felt that Regiment Commander Qiao Ting had been too reckless in his overconfidence. If the Leiting Mecha Clan had sent out all of their best elites, how could their Leiting have lost? Then, they would not have had to leave the headquarters so pathetically today.
"Shh, don't say anymore. The people from Lingtian are here." Another member leaving together with them saw that there were people entering from the main doors now and quickly spoke up to warn them to mind their words.
His reminder silenced everyone instantly. Everyone's attention turned towards the main doors to focus on the group of youths stepping into the hall right at that moment.
There were about 15 to 16 of them, and most of them had excited smiles on their faces. It was clear to see that these hot-blooded youths were overjoyed and somewhat worked up over springing straight up to become the strongest faction of the academy in one bound. These half-grown youngsters were still rather immature and unpolished — they had not learned yet how to hide their emotions well. These radiant smiles were frankly rather irritating to the eyes of the Leiting members who had yet to leave the headquarters; animosity quickly brewed within their gazes.
"Hmph, what a bunch of petty victors. Hopefully they won't be slinking out of here in shame in just a month." A fiery-tempered Leiting member could not help but sneer at this time.
The military academy had ruled before that every mecha clan would have the right to challenge another mecha clan once per year, and any mecha clan could only be challenged once a month. This year, Leiting had already used up their challenge for this vengeance match, so they had no more chances. However, the members of Leiting believed that the other factions in the academy definitely would not give up this opportunity to become the first faction. A month later, there would inevitably be another mecha clan which would challenge Lingtian — it was just unclear which of the remaining three mecha clans of the top four, Tianji, Wuji, or Dwotong, would be the first to challenge Lingtian.
"Perhaps, they will create the record for shortest tenure as the number one faction in the academy," said another Leiting member mockingly. His words made many of the other Leiting members' lips curl up in disdainful smirks. They had already forgotten that the ones who had pulled them off their divine pedestal was precisely this Lingtian Mecha Clan they were so disdainful of.
The youths at the door did not care at all about the hostile stares. Despite their excitement, their gazes filled with the eagerness to explore their new headquarters, they did not continue to move forwards. Instead, they stopped at the door, looking around from time to time, as if waiting for someone.
One of the most eye-catching was an incomparably beautiful teenager. Each move and each smile of that teen were unequivocally breath-taking — even though the Leiting people were filled with animosity towards the Lingtian people, they could not deny that they had indeed been mesmerized by the youth's beauty. If they had not known that all students accepted by the First Men's Military Academy had to be male, there would certainly be a significant number of people who would be wondering right now whether the youth was a crossdressing female. Although the chest area was very flat, in this militaristic society right now, it was not uncommon for girls to be less endowed in this respect.
"Boss!" A warm voice accompanied by a warm smile — many of the Leiting boys dearly wished that this cry was for them.
But very quickly, everyone was dealt a cold awakening. An austere youth stepped through the doors of the number one faction under the respectful gazes of the other Lingtian youths to come into the main hall. As soon as he entered the hall, the ambient temperature in the room instantly plunged to freezing point.
"Boss!" When the Lingtian youths saw this austere youth, they instantly greeted him with respectful expressions.
The cold-faced youth swept an icy gaze over them and then nodded slowly in acknowledgement. This action appeared somewhat perfunctory, but the youths did not seem to feel that way. Rather, their uptight expressions actually relaxed considerably following the youth's actions.
This was the response they expected from their boss — if the expression or motion had been any different, they might perhaps be terrified, wondering whether they had done something wrong and if their boss was about to deal with them.
Those Leiting members who had initially stared at the Lingtian group with contempt instantly tucked away the sneers on their faces at the entrance of this person. They had not forgotten that it was this person who had unseated their Thunder King from his throne.
That's right, this frigid teenager was our main protagonist Ling Lan. She was here today to accept the handover of the number one faction's headquarters. As soon as the transfer was done, the Lingtian Mecha Clan would officially become the number one faction of the military academy. Of course, to secure this position was not easy — they would have to accept and weather the consecutive challenges of the other factions in the academy in the subsequent few months, but what Ling Lan feared least was challenge.
Three people trailed behind Ling Lan; they were the three other regiment commanders of the Lingtian Mecha Clan, Qi Long, Wu Jiong, and Li Yingjie.
Wu Jiong followed Ling Lan into the hall and took a look around. Not seeing the person he was looking for, he quickly stepped forward to come up to Ling Lan's side and said with a soft chuckle, "Boss Lan, Qiao Ting isn't here yet." Wu Jiong wondered if Qiao Ting was too embarrassed to come earlier.
Ling Lan's lips quirked. "When 2 o'clock comes, he will definitely appear." The academy would not permit its rules to be broken — no matter how much Qiao Ting resisted, he would still come to carry out this responsibility at that final moment.
"When Qiao Ting challenged us, he must never have imagined this moment. He's definitely too embarrassed to come early, hahaha ..." Li Yingjie heard the conversation between Wu Jiong and Ling Lan, and he chimed in with smug laughter.
In contrast to Wu Jiong's and Ling Lan's restrained manner, Li Yingjie's voice was obviously much louder. Those Leiting members who had yet to leave the hall were all enraged by his arrogance — some of them even looked about to charge over to punch him, but they were held back by their companions. All of a sudden, the atmosphere of the entire hall was tense.
Ling Lan and Wu Jiong sweatdropped. This Li Yingjie was an absolute troublemaker — they were here to accept the transfer of the headquarters and not to instigate a fight ...
Trailing behind them lazily, Qi Long sensed the sudden shift in the hall's atmosphere and his spirits rallied instantly. He looked around with lively eyes, his earlier indolence completely swept away. He licked his lips and said excitedly, "Boss, is there going to be a fight?"
Bored as he was, he had not paid any attention to Ling Lan and the others' conversations and so did not really know what was going on. However, his beast-like instinct had alerted him to the potential of a fight.
Whether it was with the New Cadet Regiment back then or the Lingtian Mecha Clan now, Ling Lan had always held a laissez-faire attitude as a general. All clan internal affairs were handled by Wu Jiong, Qi Long, and Li Yingjie. Unfortunately, the haughty Li Yingjie would stir up some trouble every so often, and when he could not settle the matter himself, Wu Jiong and Qi Long would be dragged in as well to help him clean up the mess. On the other hand, although Qi Long did not cause as much trouble as Li Yingjie did, he was perpetually at the combat arena. To ask him to handle the affairs of the faction ... fine, to pry him out of the combat arena was even harder than directly asking Boss Lan for help in Wu Jiong's opinion.
Then again, to ask Boss Lan for help ... Wu Jiong felt that he really had no way of withstanding that piercing gaze capable of freezing a person to death. Every time he had no other choice but to seek Boss Lan out to resolve a problem, Wu Jiong felt that his lifespan had been reduced by at least five years. So that he did not die before his time, he decided that it was better for him to just put in the extra effort himself.
Wu Jiong's mournful gaze was resolutely ignored by Ling Lan. She pretended that she did not know anything — she would not step into this stinking puddle of water 1 .
Right at that moment, the elevator at the end of the hall suddenly dinged. The elevator doors opened, and a handsome youth with chiselled features appeared before the crowd. His initially domineering and confident brow now carried a touch of gloom, his entire being seeming somewhat diminished. He was the present regiment commander of Leiting, Qiao Ting.
When he saw Ling Lan standing by the doors, his gaze flickered and he hesitated for a moment. But he quickly shook it off and strode out of the elevator to come before Ling Lan.
The two of them faced each other. Even though Ling Lan was half a head shorter than Qiao Ting, she did not lose to the other in terms of force of presence. Rather, the sharp chill surrounding Ling Lan was even more evident through the encounter — for a brief moment, the other people there even had the impression that the Thunder King was being suppressed by Ling Lan.
At this sight, Ling Lan's eyes narrowed. Her already cold and expressionless face became even more forbidding. Those who understood Ling Lan well would know that this was an indication that Ling Lan had become even more serious and vigilant.
The two youths did not say anything, merely staring at each other in silence for one to two minutes. The atmosphere in the entire hall was unbelievably heavy — some people with lower tolerance found their bodies beginning to tremble, pressed so far by the two's auras that they were on the verge of breaking down.
Just when everyone thought that the two youths would continue their silent confrontation indefinitely, Qiao Ting spoke up first. "You have come." Perhaps only Qiao Ting knew the full meaning behind these simple three words.
The moment Qiao Ting opened his mouth to speak, the heavy atmosphere was swept away. Those who were on the brink of collapse due to the pressure from the two youths abruptly felt the pressure ease and were revived.
"I have come," replied Ling Lan, likewise three words in return. Perhaps only Ling Lan herself understood the true meaning behind these three words as well.
Qiao Ting raised his eyebrows slightly at her words and said calmly, "Follow me." Having said that, he turned to leave, unconcerned whether Ling Lan and the rest could keep up.
Qiao Ting's attitude made the expressions of the Lingtian members change. Rage rose in many of their eyes, but all of this died away under Ling Lan's cool gaze. Everyone could read the meaning in Ling Lan's eyes — she was telling all of them to be quiet and to let her handle this.
The two of them entered the elevator and when the elevator doors closed, everyone left behind released a sigh of relief in unplanned unison. Qiao Ting and Ling Lan's forces of presence were just too powerful — being in the same room with them was really too stressful.
In the elevator, the two youths continued to be silent. Ling Lan looked at the flashing numbers of the elevator, waiting for the final floor they would reach. Right at this moment, Qiao Ting spoke up unexpectedly, "Next year, I will not lose again."
Ling Lan glanced over at him in surprise, but before she could say anything, the elevator dinged and they had arrived at their destination floor.
Qiao Ting did not require Ling Lan to respond to his statement; he had only wanted to tell Ling Lan his determination. When the elevator doors opened, Qiao Ting immediately walked out of the elevator.
Seeing this, Ling Lan quirked an eyebrow. She had not expected that Qiao Ting would actually think to fight her again in the academy. Although the military academy was a six-year system, all cadets would typically leave the academy in their final year. They would either enter an army division for practical training, or sign up for an adventuring group to participate in interstellar expeditions to gain practical experience — almost no one would continue to remain at the military academy. These words of Qiao Ting was clearly intended to tell Ling Lan that, next year, he would still be at the military academy to fight her again.
Ling Lan did not understand why Qiao Ting would want to do this. She seemed to remember that Qiao Ting had already caught the Third Marshal's eye and would be joining the Third Division this year. It went without question that early admittance into an army division would be extremely beneficial; to Qiao Ting's future development. Now, in order to fight her again, Qiao Ting was actually planning to delay his enlistment ... was this truly necessary?
Ling Lan was rather puzzled, but she did not pause her footsteps. Following closely behind Qiao Ting, they soon arrived at the central control room of the building. Qiao Ting pushed the door open, and Ling Lan saw that there was one other Leiting member still seated in front of a control panel in the central control room.
"Regiment Commander, you're here." When that person saw Qiao Ting, he immediately leapt to his feet. Catching sight of Ling Lan standing behind Qiao Ting, his eyes turned dim, and there was even a trace of indignation contained within them.
It looked like the people of Leiting still felt resentful that their headquarters had been taken by Lingtian. They were not convinced of their defeat, believing that their regiment commander had just taken the enemy too lightly. Along with other miscellaneous reasons, Lingtian had just had the luck of the devil that day.
Qiao Ting was well aware of this sentiment in his people. In fact, he too was unconvinced by his loss. However, a defeat was a defeat — Leiting's loss of the title of number one faction had already become fact and was not something they could shy away from. "Prepare transferral procedures."
That person's face stiffened, and with a trace of unwillingness, he once again sat back before the control panel and began the operations to execute the transferral procedures.
Soon, Qiao Ting had wiped all the fingerprints belonging to the current regiment commander of the mecha clan from the headquarters' systems. After Ling Lan's fingerprints were successfully input into the system, the new owner of the headquarters would become the Lingtian Mecha Clan.
Watching as the optical supercomputer declared the completion of the procedure, Qiao Ting zoned out for the first time. He quickly got a hold of himself, however, and turned his head to say to Ling Lan, "Regiment Commander Ling, I hope that you will be able to hold onto this place for this year. Don't make me have to fight an extra challenge." Clearly, Qiao Ting did not think much of the Lingtian Mecha Clan.
Ling Lan snapped her head around, her gaze piercing straight through Qiao Ting as she answered coldly, "Don't worry. Before I graduate, this place will only belong to the Lingtian Mecha Clan. No other mecha clan will be able to touch it." Ling Lan absolutely would not allow anyone to look down on her companions or her faction. Her gaze pressed down on Qiao Ting as she said with full conviction, "I, Ling Lan, will be waiting for your challenge!"
Ling Lan's attitude was clearly telling Qiao Ting that, she, as the winner, was king, while Qiao Ting, as the loser, would be the challenger in a year's time.
Ling Lan did not seem to be satisfied, for she continued to bear down on Qiao Ting, saying, "This academy has only one king, and that is I, Ling Lan. Three days ago, you lost to me, and in future, you also will not win. I will use the truth to tell you that you are destined to be my stepping stone."
When the words 'stepping stone' were uttered, Qiao Ting could no longer tolerate the situation. He threw an angry punch at Ling Lan.
With a 'smack', Ling Lan stopped Qiao Ting's fist with an open palm. Two unseen forces collided fiercely, sending the Leiting member seated at the control panel flying outwards to crash into the floor.
That member climbed up with difficulty, a trickle of blood flowing down from the corner of his lips. He stared in horror at the two people still connected by a palm and a fist. His physical skills were already at the peak stage of Refinement, yet he had still been sent flying and had suffered some minor internal injury just from being in the range of the aftershock of the two hidden forces at play. Just how strong were these two's physical skills?!

"value": "Chapter 240: The Bricks Are Fired\nAfter his day of training had ended, Ren Baqian dragged his exhausted body while carrying the treasure saber back to Pingle Park.\n\"I shall give you a name.\" Ren Baqian pondered for a while. Compliant Golden-Hooped Saber? Otherwise, Elongation Saber?\nRen Baqian grinned. This name sounded pretty good as the Elongation Saber could grow as well. It would be called Elongation Saber.\nRen Baqian felt that he needed a physics laboratory as this saber mustn't be sent to the medical laboratory. Unfortunately, he didn't have the money, so he need not think about a physics laboratory. It wasn't something that he could build with 20 million yuan. Even if he could, he didn't plan on spending all his money on it as well. It would be good enough if he knew how to use this saber for the time being. He would consider researching this saber, only when he earned money from the rest of the items after they hit the market.\nThe next morning, Ren Baqian headed for the imperial kitchen in high spirits, to look for Caretaker Gou. After which, he went to the lower hall in the imperial kitchen.\nThe imperial kitchen was divided into two portions. One portion was the upper hall which he went on a daily basis. The upper hall was also in-charge of the empress's meals. Nowadays, the cooks over there were also in charge of Ren Baqian's meals.\nAnd the other portion was in charge of the palace maids', female officials', as well as the imperial bodyguards' meals.\nThe livestock which the palace needed to slaughter everyday was also located there.\nWhen he got there, he saw two giant sheep, one wild boar as well as one curve-horned cow that were waiting to be slaughtered. In this world, the wild boar was called the black-faced ruler. As for the curve-horned cow, it was similar to the water buffalo and slightly smaller than the fork-horned cow. Also, the curve-horned cow wasn't as good at running as the fork-horned cow.\n\"Use this saber to slaughter them.\" Ren Baqian handed the broken saber to the person preparing to kill the livestock. The other party gave Deputy Ren a look are-you-trying-to-tease-me? This saber didn't even have its tip, moreover, it was so short…\nIn the end, he still used the specialized knife for slaughtering livestock while Ren Baqian completely submerged the broken saber into the basin of blood.\nWithin two hours, every single drop of blood from the four livestock was absorbed by the Elongation Saber. It made everyone else that was present greatly astonished. In the past, the blood of the slaughtered livestock could fill up an entire basin. But at this moment, all the blood had disappeared.\nRen Baqian didn't give an explanation, carried his saber away and returned to Pingle Park. As he thought of \"grow, grow, grow\" in his heart, he saw that the length of the saber grew from 15 centimeters to almost 2 meters long.\nRen Baqian held onto the long saber and pointed it diagonally upwards. Immediately, he felt that he was like Sephiroth—with the exception of long hair fluttering in the sky as well as a leather trench coat.\nWhen this saber was short, it looked a little thick and broad. But, when it grew to a long sword, it actually looked somewhat liked a zanbato.\nHowever, Ren Baqian also discovered a problem this time. Even after absorbing the blood of four livestock, the length of the sword wasn't satisfactory.\nOne had to know that the blood he spilled on the saber at that time, made it grow to about a meter long.\nAnd the blood of the four livestock absorbed by the sword, only made it grew to about two meters long. If that was the case, the results weren't as effective as he expected them to be,\nCould it be possible that only human's blood was effective? Could it be that only his own blood was effective? Ren Baqian got a shock after thinking for a while.\nAfter thinking about it carefully, this saber had a dubious worth that made him reluctant to give it up. Killing four livestock in the palace only allowed it to grow to 2 meters. At the very least, he had to retain at least 30 centimeters of the saber for him to continue using it again. Ren Baqian weighed the 1.6 meters saber in his hand, it weighed about 10 catties and that would be about 3000 catties worth of iron in a year. It was better than nothing.\nUnless he sent this sword to a slaughter factory. But, there wasn't a slaughter factory in this world as all the livestock were slaughtered privately. Was it necessary for him to build a slaughter factory outside the city?\nIf he really wanted to bring out the potential of the Elongated Saber, this could be the only way.\nAnother question was, if the saber stopped getting chopped off and shrank after a period of time, was it due to the blood absorbed by the blade disappearing with the passage of time? Or did it actually strengthen the other aspects of the saber? For example, the hardness of the saber.\nRen Baqian felt that he could give it a try.\nAs the saber shortened and the blade returned to 15 centimeters long, the weight was also reduced. The weight was almost the same prior to the saber being cut off. It was simply magical as it completely didn't comply with the law of conservation of mass.\nHowever, the blade of the saber seemed to be slightly longer than before it had absorbed the blood.\nRen Baqian used his fingers to roughly measure, and indeed, it seemed that it was approximately one centimeter longer.\nIt seemed like following the absorption of blood by the saber, even if the broken portion wasn't attached back, it was still able to grow. He even wondered if the saber was had a \"kidney deficiency\" as it grew and got chopped off repeatedly.\nAfter experimenting with the saber, Ren Baqian carefully placed it aside and he received news that the bricks were done baking. As such, Her Majesty summoned him to Yangxin Palace Hall.\nUpon reaching Yangxin Palace Hall, there were already two people waiting over there. One was Tong Zhenye and the other was someone whom he had never met before. He only afterwards found out that he was the Junior Official of Department of Construction. Initially, the Department of Ordnance was supposed to be in charge of firing bricks and burning of cement. After all, Jingtian Furnaces was managed by the Department of Ordnance. Now, the responsibility of firing clay bricks and burning of cement was switched to the Department of Construction.\nAnd in front of Tong Zhenye were a few pieces of fine weapons for a street brawl—wall bricks.\n\"Deputy, could you please check if this is correct?\" Tong Zhenye asked after Ren Baqian gave his greetings.\nRen Baqian lifted his head and looked at the empress before looking at the bricks happily. These were pure clay bricks. They had a good feel to them, a smooth surface, as well as a substantial weight. They weren't as rough as the modern red bricks because soot wasn't added inside. Even though this method was more troublesome, it ensured the quality of the bricks and wouldn't spoil over hundreds of years.\nBy smashing the bricks into pieces, they could see that it was very dense inside. It wasn't black like the inner portion of red bricks, which had soot mixed into it.\nRen Baqian grinned after carefully inspecting the bricks, \"That's the way, it's so much easier to fire bricks and use cement to construct infrastructure when compared to extracting and polishing rocks. \"\nThe other people nodded as well as it was indeed the case.\n\"We'll follow your plan then. Ministry of Works, seize the time to fire such bricks and cement so that we can construct the glass factory. If there's anything that anyone of you doesn't understand, you can look for Deputy Ren.\" The empress nodded.\nRen Baqian made a trip to Pingle Park once again, retrieved the blueprint of the earthen kiln and handed it to Tong Zhenye. At present, the speed at which those clay furnaces were firing bricks and cement was too slow. Also, there were also too few of the clay furnaces.\nIf at present Dayao didn't completely rely on firewood to burn things, Ren Baqian hoped to make a rotary kiln. That way, the speed of firing bricks and burning cement would greatly increase.\n\"It would be best to shift the earthen kiln further away. Somewhere in the vicinity of the location to retrieve clay is a good place,\" Ren Baqian exhorted.\n\"Why?\" Tong Zhenye asked curiously. It was much easier to transport clay than to transport bricks. Furthermore, most of the craftsmen would have to stay there and the transportation of food and other materials would also require more manpower.\nDoing things this way, the consumption of materials and manpower would be much greater.\n\"Or else, when the particles caused by years of heavy combustion are suspended in the air, you will not even be able to see the stars when you look up.\" Ren Baqian said as he spread out his hands. He only lacked saying the slogan, \"It's everyone's responsibility to protect the environment and leave an azure blue sky for our future generations.\"\nHe most definitely wouldn't want to see a sky full of haze which resembled a fairyland whenever he opened his eyes in the next one or two decades.\nHowever, it was very difficult for Tong Zhenye to understand what Ren Baqian was talking about. After all, the people in this world had never experienced air pollution before.\n\"Act in accordance with Deputy Ren's words.\" The empress made her decision. Ren Baqian had more knowledge in this aspect compared to the others.\n\"I have heard a little from Tong Lan, about the things Deputy Ren has done. Ren Baqian's shamelessness made me gasp in amazement,\" Tong Zhenye said as if he was praising him. But, even fools could see that Tong Zhenye was looking at Ren Baqian with total contempt.\nTong Zhenye didn't think much of it when it was said to be a training practice. Even though Tong Lan was still very young, she would have no problem defeating several Ren Baqian's single-handedly.\nHe casually asked about it when he was having his meal, and when he heard Tong Lan talk about what happened in the afternoon, he sprayed out his food.\nNot to mention him, even the other people in the Tong residence were astonished.\nRen Baqian could actually be so shameless in the presence of Her Majesty as well as his ten-year-old opponent. He not only raised the issue about the brothel but, he even spoke about not returning money as a threat. It was practically an eye-opener for everyone.\n\"How can it be, my standards are so far off when compared to Sir Tong,\" Ren Baqian immediately replied in a modest manner."

第二百四十章
，一天的训练结束，任八千拖着疲惫的身体拎着“宝刀”回到平乐苑。
“应该给你取个名字。” 任八千琢磨一下，如意金箍刀？
任八千咧嘴一笑，这名字不错，能生长变长，就叫长生刀了。
任八千觉得他需要一个物理实验室，这刀肯定是不能送到药品实验室的。 可惜现在自己没钱，物理实验室是不用想了，怎么也不是自己拿2000万能搭建起来的，就算能，他也没准备把钱都花光，暂时只要知道这刀怎么用的就行，等上市以后有钱了再考虑研究这刀吧。
第二天上午，任八千就兴致勃勃的前往御膳房找到勾管事，又去了下堂。
御膳房分两部分，一部分就是他平日总去的负责女帝用膳的上堂，如今他的饭菜也是这里负责。
而另外一部分则是负责侍女、女官和侍卫饭食的下堂。
每日宫中需要宰杀牲畜也是在那里。
到了那里就见到准备宰杀的两只巨羊，一只野猪还有一只弯角牛。 这个世界把野猪叫做黑面君，而弯角牛则类似水牛，比角牛体型要小一些，也不像角牛善于奔跑。
“用这刀杀”任八千把断刀递给准备杀牲畜的人，对方一脸的任府丞你在逗我？
最后还是用专门杀牲畜的刀捅宰杀，任八千将断刀全都浸泡到血盆里。
整整四只牲畜的鲜血在一个时辰内被它吸了个干干净净，让周围其他人大为惊讶，往日一头牲畜的血能灌满一大盆，可此时竟然全都没了。
任八千一句话不解释，拎着刀就回了平乐苑，随着他心中想着“长长长”，只见刀从半尺长到六尺长，也就是两米。
任八千拿着长刀斜指向上，顿时感觉自己跟萨菲罗斯似的，还少一头飘逸长发和一件皮风衣。
别说，这刀是短刀的时候看起来有点宽厚，但变成长刀后看起来倒是有些像斩马刀了。
不过这次任八千也发现一个问题，便是这刀吸了四只牲畜的血，长度并不让人满意。
要知道自己当初洒的那些血可是让它直接变成三尺长。
而四只牲畜的血全放出来吸光才六尺，如果这样的话效果似乎没自己想的那么大。 莫非只有人的血效果才好？
该不会是只有自己的血效果才好吧？ 想到这个想法任八千都吓了一跳。
再仔细想想，这刀的用处确实有些鸡肋，一天在宫中宰杀四只牲畜才到六尺，起码还得留个一尺下次继续用，五尺刀身的话，任八千在手里掂量一下，也就十斤左右，一年三千多斤铁，聊胜于无。
除非送屠宰加工厂去，可这个世界可没屠宰加工厂一说，都是私下宰杀。 莫非还要再城外建个加工厂？
如果真想发挥这把长生刀的作用，也只能如此了。
另外一个疑问就是如果刀不斩断后，一段时间后会缩短，不知道是什么原因，真是因为刀身吸收的血液随着时间流逝消失了么？ 还是其实是增加了刀身的其他方面？
任八千觉得自己可以试试。
将刀缩短，刀身又变回半尺长的样子，重量也在减少，和之前断刀时重量差不多，简直是神奇，完全不符合质量守恒定律啊。
不过刀身似乎比刚才吸血之前要长了点。
任八千用手指比划一下，似乎确实长了一点，一公分左右。
看样子随着吸血这刀哪怕不把断刀接回去也能够长回来。 只是不知道这么一直长然后一直斩断，它会不会肾虚。
实验了一番，任八千把刀小心放好，就接到消息，砖已经烧好了，陛下传他去养心殿。
任八千到养心殿的时候，已经有两个人站在那里，一个是铜震野，另外一个没见过，之后才知道是工曹司少卿。 砖头和水泥最早是军器司插手，毕竟景田炉也是归军器司管理，如今水泥和粘土砖的烧制转而归工曹司负责了。
而在铜震野身前则是放着几块街头斗殴神器——板砖。
“任府丞，你看这个可对？” 铜震野在任八千见礼后说过。
不像是现代红砖那么粗糙，这是因为里面没加煤灰的关系。 这样烧制虽然麻烦些，但质量最好，数百年而不坏。
将砖块敲碎，只见里面也很密实，不像加了煤灰的红砖那样里面是黑色的。
任八千仔细检查过后才笑了起来：“就是这样，如此法烧制砖块用水泥砌筑，可比开采打磨岩石要容易多了。”
其他几人也点头，确实是这样。
“那便这样吧。 工部抓紧时间烧这种砖砖和水泥，用来建造玻璃厂，若有什么不明白的便找任府丞。” 女帝点头道。
几人全都领命。 任八千又回了一趟平乐苑，取出土窑的图纸交给铜震野，现在的那种土炉烧砖烧水泥速度太慢，数量也太少。
如果不是大耀现在完全是依靠木材来烧，任八千更希望做出回转窑来，那样能让烧砖和烧水泥的速度大幅度提升。
“最好将土窑的位置放远一点，取粘土的位置附近是个好地方。” 任八千叮嘱道。
铜震野好奇问道。 运粘土比运砖要容易多了，而且那样的话大部分工匠都要住在那里，食物和其他物资运输也要多费一些人手。
这样弄的话，物资和人力的消耗要大上许多。
“不然几年后大量燃烧后的漂浮物悬浮在空中，你抬头连星星都看不到了。” 任八千摊手道。
他可不希望过上十几二十年每天睁眼就是一片雾霾，跟仙境似的。
不过铜震野还是很难明白，毕竟这个世界的人没见识过什么叫做空气污染。 “按任府丞的话做吧。”
任八千不明所以。 “任府丞的事老夫听铜兰说了一些，任府丞的无耻颇有老夫当年的风范。”
铜震野抚须道，一脸的赞赏模样。 可傻子都能看出他眼睛里全是鄙视。 前些日子陛下将铜兰招入宫中，说是陪练，铜震野也没多想。
别看铜兰年纪小，可一只手打三五个个任八千还是没问题的。
可当铜府吃饭时他随口问起，当听铜兰说了下午发生的事情后他直接就喷了。
别说是他，就连铜府其他人也都震惊了。
当着陛下的面，还是面对一个十岁的孩子，竟然这么无耻。 不但敢提青楼，还能说出不还钱这样的话来威胁，简直是让人大开眼界。
“哪里，下官比起铜大人还是远远不如。” 任八千立刻一脸谦虚。

Chapter 240: The Bricks Are Fired
After his day of training had ended, Ren Baqian dragged his exhausted body while carrying the treasure saber back to Pingle Park.
"I shall give you a name." Ren Baqian pondered for a while. Compliant Golden-Hooped Saber? Otherwise, Elongation Saber?
Ren Baqian grinned. This name sounded pretty good as the Elongation Saber could grow as well. It would be called Elongation Saber.

In the end, he still used the specialized knife for slaughtering livestock while Ren Baqian completely submerged the broken saber into the basin of blood.
Within two hours, every single drop of blood from the four livestock was absorbed by the Elongation Saber. It made everyone else that was present greatly astonished. In the past, the blood of the slaughtered livestock could fill up an entire basin. But at this moment, all the blood had disappeared.
Ren Baqian didn't give an explanation, carried his saber away and returned to Pingle Park. As he thought of "grow, grow, grow" in his heart, he saw that the length of the saber grew from 15 centimeters to almost 2 meters long.
Ren Baqian held onto the long saber and pointed it diagonally upwards. Immediately, he felt that he was like Sephiroth—with the exception of long hair fluttering in the sky as well as a leather trench coat.
When this saber was short, it looked a little thick and broad. But, when it grew to a long sword, it actually looked somewhat liked a zanbato.
However, Ren Baqian also discovered a problem this time. Even after absorbing the blood of four livestock, the length of the sword wasn't satisfactory.
One had to know that the blood he spilled on the saber at that time, made it grow to about a meter long.
And the blood of the four livestock absorbed by the sword, only made it grew to about two meters long. If that was the case, the results weren't as effective as he expected them to be,
Could it be possible that only human's blood was effective? Could it be that only his own blood was effective? Ren Baqian got a shock after thinking for a while.
After thinking about it carefully, this saber had a dubious worth that made him reluctant to give it up. Killing four livestock in the palace only allowed it to grow to 2 meters. At the very least, he had to retain at least 30 centimeters of the saber for him to continue using it again. Ren Baqian weighed the 1.6 meters saber in his hand, it weighed about 10 catties and that would be about 3000 catties worth of iron in a year. It was better than nothing.
Unless he sent this sword to a slaughter factory. But, there wasn't a slaughter factory in this world as all the livestock were slaughtered privately. Was it necessary for him to build a slaughter factory outside the city?
If he really wanted to bring out the potential of the Elongated Saber, this could be the only way.
Another question was, if the saber stopped getting chopped off and shrank after a period of time, was it due to the blood absorbed by the blade disappearing with the passage of time? Or did it actually strengthen the other aspects of the saber? For example, the hardness of the saber.
Ren Baqian felt that he could give it a try.
As the saber shortened and the blade returned to 15 centimeters long, the weight was also reduced. The weight was almost the same prior to the saber being cut off. It was simply magical as it completely didn't comply with the law of conservation of mass.
However, the blade of the saber seemed to be slightly longer than before it had absorbed the blood.
Ren Baqian used his fingers to roughly measure, and indeed, it seemed that it was approximately one centimeter longer.
It seemed like following the absorption of blood by the saber, even if the broken portion wasn't attached back, it was still able to grow. He even wondered if the saber was had a "kidney deficiency" as it grew and got chopped off repeatedly.
After experimenting with the saber, Ren Baqian carefully placed it aside and he received news that the bricks were done baking. As such, Her Majesty summoned him to Yangxin Palace Hall.
Upon reaching Yangxin Palace Hall, there were already two people waiting over there. One was Tong Zhenye and the other was someone whom he had never met before. He only afterwards found out that he was the Junior Official of Department of Construction. Initially, the Department of Ordnance was supposed to be in charge of firing bricks and burning of cement. After all, Jingtian Furnaces was managed by the Department of Ordnance. Now, the responsibility of firing clay bricks and burning of cement was switched to the Department of Construction.
And in front of Tong Zhenye were a few pieces of fine weapons for a street brawl—wall bricks.
"Deputy, could you please check if this is correct?" Tong Zhenye asked after Ren Baqian gave his greetings.
Ren Baqian lifted his head and looked at the empress before looking at the bricks happily. These were pure clay bricks. They had a good feel to them, a smooth surface, as well as a substantial weight. They weren't as rough as the modern red bricks because soot wasn't added inside. Even though this method was more troublesome, it ensured the quality of the bricks and wouldn't spoil over hundreds of years.
By smashing the bricks into pieces, they could see that it was very dense inside. It wasn't black like the inner portion of red bricks, which had soot mixed into it.
Ren Baqian grinned after carefully inspecting the bricks, "That's the way, it's so much easier to fire bricks and use cement to construct infrastructure when compared to extracting and polishing rocks. "
The other people nodded as well as it was indeed the case.
"We'll follow your plan then. Ministry of Works, seize the time to fire such bricks and cement so that we can construct the glass factory. If there's anything that anyone of you doesn't understand, you can look for Deputy Ren." The empress nodded.
Ren Baqian made a trip to Pingle Park once again, retrieved the blueprint of the earthen kiln and handed it to Tong Zhenye. At present, the speed at which those clay furnaces were firing bricks and cement was too slow. Also, there were also too few of the clay furnaces.
If at present Dayao didn't completely rely on firewood to burn things, Ren Baqian hoped to make a rotary kiln. That way, the speed of firing bricks and burning cement would greatly increase.
"It would be best to shift the earthen kiln further away. Somewhere in the vicinity of the location to retrieve clay is a good place," Ren Baqian exhorted.
"Why?" Tong Zhenye asked curiously. It was much easier to transport clay than to transport bricks. Furthermore, most of the craftsmen would have to stay there and the transportation of food and other materials would also require more manpower.
Doing things this way, the consumption of materials and manpower would be much greater.
"Or else, when the particles caused by years of heavy combustion are suspended in the air, you will not even be able to see the stars when you look up." Ren Baqian said as he spread out his hands. He only lacked saying the slogan, "It's everyone's responsibility to protect the environment and leave an azure blue sky for our future generations."
He most definitely wouldn't want to see a sky full of haze which resembled a fairyland whenever he opened his eyes in the next one or two decades.
However, it was very difficult for Tong Zhenye to understand what Ren Baqian was talking about. After all, the people in this world had never experienced air pollution before.
"Act in accordance with Deputy Ren's words." The empress made her decision. Ren Baqian had more knowledge in this aspect compared to the others.
"I have heard a little from Tong Lan, about the things Deputy Ren has done. Ren Baqian's shamelessness made me gasp in amazement," Tong Zhenye said as if he was praising him. But, even fools could see that Tong Zhenye was looking at Ren Baqian with total contempt.
Tong Zhenye didn't think much of it when it was said to be a training practice. Even though Tong Lan was still very young, she would have no problem defeating several Ren Baqian's single-handedly.
He casually asked about it when he was having his meal, and when he heard Tong Lan talk about what happened in the afternoon, he sprayed out his food.
Not to mention him, even the other people in the Tong residence were astonished.
Ren Baqian could actually be so shameless in the presence of Her Majesty as well as his ten-year-old opponent. He not only raised the issue about the brothel but, he even spoke about not returning money as a threat. It was practically an eye-opener for everyone.
"How can it be, my standards are so far off when compared to Sir Tong," Ren Baqian immediately replied in a modest manner.

"value": "Chapter 269: Let Me Take a Look\nNot long after Butler Lu's departure, an elder was carried in.\nHe looked significantly older than Shen Hong, and his skin was saturated with creases and age spots. Lying on a reclining chair, his breathing was faint, and it seemed that he would die at any moment now.\nIt was no wonder why the manor strictly rejected all guests except for physicians. Given the current state of the Great Herb King, it was unlikely that he would be able to hold on for long.\n\"You are all highly famous physicians of the Physician Guild. I beseech you to save the old master!\"\nButler Lu bowed to the crowd.\n\"Tell us about the condition of the Great Herb King in detail!\" The 3-star physician, who interjected previously, said.\n\"Yes!\" Knowing that physicians needed to know about the medical history of the patient, Butler Lu answered without any hesitation. \"The old master used to be extremely healthy until a disease abruptly struck him half a month ago. He found himself without appetite, and his physical condition deteriorated continuously, day by day, to the point that he is now unable to speak. As for the cause... We've no idea as well. We only know that his physical condition is worsening by the moment and that no medicine he ate alleviated his condition.\"\n\"Ill all of a sudden? Can it be that he has been poisoned?\" A physician asked.\nUsually, when one becomes ill without any signs beforehand, it is highly likely that it is due to poison.\n\"We've taken into account that possibility and used a unique method to check, but there wasn't any sign of poison.\"\nThe Great Herb King had been reigning over the Red Lotus City for many years, and he had close ties with the Poison Hall. It shouldn't be a difficult task to check if he was poisoned.\n\"Let me take a look!\"\nA 3-star physician approached the Great Herb King and examined him. A moment later, a deep crease appeared on his forehead.\n\"Lips are white, breathing is inconsistent, loose skin, deep age spots, spiritless eyes...\" After taking a look, the physician shook his head. \"These are signs that his lifespan is coming to an end!\"\nA person's lifespan is determined by fate, and if one has really come to the end of his lifespan, it is impossible for any physician, regardless of how capable they are, to offer any help.\n\"While the title, Great Herb King, is well-known, it is actually a title that is passed on from one generation to the other. It has only been a few years since the old master had received the title, and he is currently only in his forties.\" Butler Lu hesitated for a moment before answering.\nThe Great Herb King of the Red Lotus City didn't refer specifically to anyone. Rather, it was like a noble conferment that could be passed on. Anyone who managed to become the Great Herb King would become the sovereign of the Red Lotus City.\n\"Still in his forties?\"\nThe crowd was taken aback, and even Zhang Xuan was astounded.\nAt forty, a Zongshi realm expert should have been at the peak of his power. Regardless of strength, spirit, energy, or stamina, they should be at their best. It wasn't logical for his lifespan to reach its end at this age.\n\"Has he consumed the [Energy Rejuvenation Pill]?\"\nAfter hesitating for a moment, the 3-star physician asked.\nEnergy Rejuvenation Pill allows one's deteriorating physical condition to burst with strength once more. It is effective even on those who have reached the end of their lifespan.\n\"He has already consumed it, but... it isn't effective!\" Butler Lu shook his head.\n\"Even the Energy Rejuvenation Pill is useless?\"\nThis time, the 3-star physician wasn't the only one to frown. All of the physicians had grim expressions on their faces.\nThe Energy Rejuvenation Pill was a grade-2 pill, and it had mystical effects on Zongshi realm experts.\nIts ineffectiveness meant that the physical condition of the Great Herb King had deteriorated to an unimaginable level.\n\"I know a set of acupuncture routine that can stimulate one's acupoints and recover their stamina. I can give it a try!\"\nSaying so, Physician Mu Hong stood up.\n\"I've heard of Physician Mu Hong's impressive acupuncture. It should be effective.\" The crowd nodded.\nWithout wasting any time, he retrieved his silver needles immediately and pierced them into the acupoints of the horizontally lying Great Herb King.\nA moment later.\nShaking his head, Physician Mu Hong walked back.\nHis impressive acupuncture was renowned, but it was completely ineffective on the Great Herb King.\nSomeone else stood up.\nJust like that, the physicians tried all of their specialties while discussing the condition of the Great Herb King. The various means and theories they raised left Mo Yu electrified.\nThose who were present were the most incredible grandmaster physicians within their country, and even the worst of the lot here was much more skilled than Grandmaster Qing Yang. As a mere apprentice physician, she had never experienced such a majestic gathering. She benefitted greatly from their conversation, and her knowledge in the Way of Medicine deepened significantly.\nSuppressing the agitation in her heart, she turned to Zhang Xuan and with a glance, her expression darkened.\nShe thought that the fellow would, like her, immerse himself in the profound theories that were spoken here. Yet, he was sitting blankly on the spot.\nShe was familiar with this expression. This was the confused look of an amateur who couldn't understand a single word. Do you not understand what they are saying?\nHow is this possible?\nUnable to believe her eyes, she sent a telepathic message to him. \"Zhang Xuan, I don't understand the [Extreme Treatment Method] that Physician Mu Hong spoke of. What does it mean?\"\nTaken aback by her sudden question, Zhang Xuan was stunned.\nHe hadn't browsed through much books on the Way of Medicine, so how could he know of these theories and terms?\nHe pondered for a moment before shaking his head, \"I don't know either. I've never heard of it.\"\nMo Yu's vision turned gray.\nExtreme Treatment Method was a diagnosis method that assumed the worst situation to determine the root of an illness. Needless to say physicians, even apprentices would have known it. Yet, this fellow said that he has never heard of it...\n\"Then... What about Observation Diagnosis Method?\"\n\"I've never heard of it either!\" Zhang Xuan shook his head.\nThere was only one 1-star physician in Tianxuan Kingdom, and he was Master Yuanyu. Zhang Xuan had never conversed with him about the Way of Medicine, so it wasn't wrong to say that he didn't know a single thing about medical theories.\nBrother, are you that sick of living, or are you that bored?\nMo Yu felt a stifling sensation in her chest. At the same time, she was also baffled.\nZhang Xuan isn’t acquainted with the fundamentals of the Way of Medicine... but how was he able to diagnose the illness of the Howling Firmament Beast and Butler Lu accurately, and treat them?\nWhile Mo Yu's thoughts were wandered, Zhang Xuan looked at the Great Herb King helplessly.\nThe Library of Heaven's Path could only compile a book when one executed a battle technique or when one was unconscious. Even though the Great Herb King was unable to speak a word, he was conscious.\nHis current situation was not much better than Shen Hong's back then, and if Zhang Xuan were to ask him to execute a battle technique for him... He would probably die before he could lift his fist.\nOn the other hand, if he were to reenact what he did with Shen Hong and knock the Great Herb King unconscious with a slap... It was highly likely that he would be cut into innumerable pieces before he could even read the contents of the book compiled.\nAlthough this lounge seemed quiet, there were numerous experts lurking in the shadows.\nIf he were to make a move on the Great Herb King, these people would definitely charge out immediately.\nRubbing his glabella, Zhang Xuan scrabbled to find an excuse.\n\"I'm truly sorry. This is my first time seeing an illness like the Great Herb King's, and I am helpless before it!\"\n\"Indeed, Butler Lu. We can't find any other possible solutions, sorry.\"\nMo Yu and Zhang Xuan were still deep in contemplation when Mu Hong and the others stood up and shook their heads in embarrassment.\nIn the end, they weren't even able to determine the illness of the other party, needless to say, treat him.\nLooking at their expressions, Butler Lu couldn't help but reveal his disappointment.\nMany physicians have come to and fro ever since the old master fell ill, and this wasn't his first time hearing such answers.\nShaking his head, Butler Lu was in the midst of addressing others when Physician Cheng Feng glanced at Zhang Xuan with a contemptuous gaze.\n\"Butler Lu, we have tried to diagnose the Great Herb King and discussed the matter, but if I'm not mistaken, this Physician Bai Chan whom you invited over has been sitting in the same spot throughout the whole time. Is it because he looks down on us, and does not think that we're worthy of his words? Or is it because he has an idea in mind and he doesn't want to discuss it with us?\"\nHearing Physician Cheng Feng words, everyone was taken aback. At the same time, they recalled that the fellow named Bai Chan didn't seem to have spoken a single word throughout the entire diagnosis, as though a mute.\n\"This fellow has been seated the entire time!\"\n\"Not just that, he didn't even say a single word.\"\n\"He's a mere 1-star physician, it would be weird if he could contribute to our discussions.\"\n\"It's because he knows that his skills are lacking that he chose not to speak. At the very least, he has avoided being mocked because of his words.\"\nRecalling that the other party was just a 1-star physician, disdain flashed through their eyes.\nA 1-star physician would be a respected figure anywhere else, just not here.\nGiven how even 3-star physicians didn't comprehend the illness, what could a 1-star physician possibly understand?\n\"It shouldn't be put like that. Since Butler Lu has specially invited him over and praised his mastery in the Way of Medicine, how can he possibly be afraid to speak up?\" Physician Cheng Feng flashed a contemptuous smile at Zhang Xuan.\nButler Lu hesitated for a moment before turning to Zhang Xuan, \"Physician Bai Chan...\"\nSince this Physician Bai was able to determine his illness with a glance, Butler Lu was confident in his medical skills. However, the other party hadn't spoken a word from the start to the end, and this had left him perplexed.\nOnly upon hearing Butler Lu call him did Zhang Xuan snap back to reality. With a puzzled look, he asked, \"What's wrong?\"\n\"The matter is like this!\"\nButler Lu coughed, embarrassed by the fact that the fellow blanked out while the others were examining the old master. Then, he explained, \"The other physicians were unable to determine the root of the old master's illness, and they would like to hear your opinion.\"\n\"They failed to even determine the root of the illness?\"\nStanding up, Zhang Xuan glanced at the crowd before shaking his head.\n\"Since they are unable to make it, I'll give it a try!\""

第二百六十九章
路管家退出去，时间不长，就抬着一位老者走了过来。
看起来比之前的沈洪还要苍老，皮肤褶皱、一脸的老年斑，斜靠在躺椅上，进气多，呼气少，看起来随时都会死亡。
难怪府邸戒严，除了医师基本不让进，这种情况，不出意外，应该坚持不了多久了。
“诸位都是医师公会有名的医道宗师，还请出手救治我们家老爷！”
路管家向众人鞠躬。
“你详细说一下大药王的症状吧！” 刚才说话的那位三星医师，道。
“是！” 知道医师看病，需要询问，路管家也不犹豫：“我们家老爷本来身体很好，大概半个月前，突然发病，饭吃不下，身体每况愈下，到了今天，甚至连话都说不出来了。 具体症状……我也说不出来，只知道身体越来越差，吃任何补药都没用。”
“突然发病？ 会不会是中毒了？” 一个医师插话。
突然发病，事先没有任何征兆，中毒的可能性极大。
“这个我们也怀疑过，曾专门用特殊的东西检测，并未发现有中毒的迹象。”
大药王驰骋红莲城这么多年，又和毒殿有联系，如何检验体内中没中毒，应该非常简单。 既然说没有，就应该不是。
“我来看看吧！”
说话的三星医师，起身来到大药王跟前，低头看了过去，片刻后，眉头皱成疙瘩。
“嘴唇发白，呼吸时有时无，皮肤松弛，带有深深的老年斑，目光无神……”看了一会，忍不住摇头：“这些都是寿命走到尽头才有的特征！”
寿命天注定，真要达到尽头，就算再厉害的医师，也不可能逆天改命，帮人延续。
除非突破当前实力。 “老爷名气很大，实际上只是沿袭了大药王的位置，今年不过……四十多岁，连五十都不到。”
路管家迟疑了一下道。 红莲城的大药王，并非特指是谁，而是和王爵一样，可以延续下去，谁成了大药王，谁就有红莲城霸主的地位。
“不到五十？”
众人全都一愣，就连张悬也微微错愕。
宗师境的实力、年龄不到五十，按照正常情况，应该正是最黄金的时刻，无论力量，还是精、气、神，都达到一种顶峰，不可能寿命走到尽头。
“可吃过【生力丹】？”
迟疑了一下，这位三星医师忍不住再次问道。
生力丹，能让衰减的体力，重新焕发力量，就算是垂暮老者，也有一定的作用。
“已经吃过了，不过……用处不大！” 路管家再次摇头。
“连生力丹都没用？”
这次不光这位三星医师，其他众人，也都一脸凝重，一个个眉头皱起。
生力丹是二品丹药，对宗师境强者有奇效。
用处不大，足以说明这位大药王的身体已经衰减到了一种让人难以想象的地步。
“我有一套针灸刺激穴道，恢复体力的方法，可以试一下！”
之前说话的那位木宏的医师，站起身来。
“木宏宗师的银针刺穴法，名动天下，应该有效果。” 众人点头。
木宏医师也不废话，取出银针，对躺椅上的大药王，一个穴道一个穴道的刺了过去。
片刻后。
摇头退了回来。
他的银针刺穴法，虽然名气很大，也很厉害，但在这位大药王身上，仿佛没有任何作用。
又有人站起身来。
诸多医师要么施展厉害的手段，要么讨论这位大药王到底得了什么病，诸多手法、医道理论说出来，众彩纷呈，让一侧的莫雨小姐，听的神驰目眩，难以自制。
能来这里的，基本都是各大王国，最厉害的医道宗师，最差的都要比清阳宗师厉害不少，她只是个医师学徒，哪经历过这种盛况，只听了一会，就感到耳目一新，对医道的理解，加深了不少。
强忍住心中激动，向一侧的张悬看了过去，一看之下，顿时脸色一黑。
本以为这家伙会和自己一样，听到如此高深理论，满心沉醉，却见他一脸发懵的坐在原地，呆傻一般。
这种表情，她以前见到过，是对一种职业完全搞不懂，听不明白才会有的。 听不懂这些？
怎么可能？
心中一动，忍不住传音：“张悬，刚才木宏医师说的【极端诊治法】，我没听懂，到底什么意思？”
没想到她会突然询问，张悬愣了一下。
他没看过关于医道的书籍，王国藏书库此类书籍又没有多少，哪里知道这些理论和名词。
想了一下，当即摇了摇头：“我也不知道，从未听过。”
莫雨眼前一黑。
极端诊治法，是医师入门的一种诊治手段，利用极端假设，来确定病症。
“那……观察诊治法呢？”
忍不住再次传音。 “也没听过！” 张悬摇头。
天玄王国只有一个原语大师，而且只有一星医师的水平，他与对方交往又不多，医疗理论，可以说完全空白。 莫雨嘴角一抽。
大哥，你是真觉得命长，还是闲的皮疼？
心中郁闷，同时也有些搞不明白。
他连这玩意都不知道，说明对医道一窍不通，可……又是怎么看出啸天兽和路管家的病症，并且治疗的？
莫雨胡思乱想，此时的张悬，也满脸无奈。
天道图书馆只有别人打拳，或者昏迷无意识，才能出现，现在这位大药王，虽然无法言语，却很明显意识清晰。
看他的样子不比当初的沈洪强多少，让其打拳……恐怕还没打出来，人就挂了。
而如果跟沈洪一样，一巴掌抽晕……估计没来得及看图书馆上的内容，就会被大卸八块。
虽然这个大殿看起来安静，实际上隐藏了不少高手。
他敢动手，这些人肯定会冲出来。
揉揉眉心，他思索理由。
“实在不好意思，大药王的病症我等第一次见到，实在无能为力！”
“是啊，路管家，我们是真的没办法，抱歉。”
就在莫雨和张悬都各有想法的时候，木宏等人全都站起身来，摇了摇头，一个个满脸尴尬。
经过这半天的诊治，连对方到底得了什么病，都没搞清楚，更别说治疗了。
看到众人这副表情，路管家忍不住露出浓浓的失望。
自从老爷得病，就邀请医师前来观看，这已经不是第一波，也不是第一次得到这种答案。
摇摇头，路管家正想交代一声，就见成风医师站起身来，脸上似笑非笑的看向不远处的张悬。
“路管家，我们刚才都对大药王进行了诊断，而且做出了讨论，但貌似你专门邀请的这位白蟾医师，一直坐着没动，不知是看不起我们，觉得我们不配与之讨论；还是心中已经有了诊断，敝帚自珍，不愿与我们交流？”
听到成风医师的话，众人先是一愣，也同时想了起来，这个叫白蟾的家伙，的确从一开始就一句话没说，像是哑巴一样。
“这家伙一直坐着没动！”
“不光没动，连话都说一句。”
“一星医师本来就不算什么，我们之间的讨论，能插上话才怪。”
“知道自己水平低，不说话，也免得受人嫌弃。”
想起对方只是个一星医师，众人全都露出轻蔑之色。
一星医师在其他地方算是不错，在这里就不够看了。
连三星医师都看不懂的病症，他又如何能看得出来？
不说话也是对的。 “话不能这么说，能让路管家专门邀请过来，并且称赞医道理解不低，怎么可能连话都不敢说？” 成风医师笑盈盈的看向张悬。
这个白蟾医师，他早就认识，知道什么样的水平。
这位白医师能一眼看出他的病症，医术之高，还是比较信服的，只不过，到现在都没开口，也让他有些奇怪。
听到路管家的喊声，张悬这才从沉思中反应过来，一脸疑惑：“怎么了？”
“是这样的！”
见所有人都诊断，这家伙走神，路管家咳嗽了一声，急忙解释：“诸位医师无法确认老爷的病症，想要听听你的意见。”
“连病都没办法确认？”
张悬缓缓站起身来，看了一眼众人，忍不住摇了摇头。
“既然他们都不行，我来看看吧！”

Chapter 269: Let Me Take a Look
Not long after Butler Lu's departure, an elder was carried in.
He looked significantly older than Shen Hong, and his skin was saturated with creases and age spots. Lying on a reclining chair, his breathing was faint, and it seemed that he would die at any moment now.
It was no wonder why the manor strictly rejected all guests except for physicians. Given the current state of the Great Herb King, it was unlikely that he would be able to hold on for long.
"You are all highly famous physicians of the Physician Guild. I beseech you to save the old master!"
Butler Lu bowed to the crowd.
"Tell us about the condition of the Great Herb King in detail!" The 3-star physician, who interjected previously, said.
"Yes!" Knowing that physicians needed to know about the medical history of the patient, Butler Lu answered without any hesitation. "The old master used to be extremely healthy until a disease abruptly struck him half a month ago. He found himself without appetite, and his physical condition deteriorated continuously, day by day, to the point that he is now unable to speak. As for the cause... We've no idea as well. We only know that his physical condition is worsening by the moment and that no medicine he ate alleviated his condition."
"Ill all of a sudden? Can it be that he has been poisoned?" A physician asked.
Usually, when one becomes ill without any signs beforehand, it is highly likely that it is due to poison.
"We've taken into account that possibility and used a unique method to check, but there wasn't any sign of poison."
The Great Herb King had been reigning over the Red Lotus City for many years, and he had close ties with the Poison Hall. It shouldn't be a difficult task to check if he was poisoned.
"Let me take a look!"
A 3-star physician approached the Great Herb King and examined him. A moment later, a deep crease appeared on his forehead.
"Lips are white, breathing is inconsistent, loose skin, deep age spots, spiritless eyes..." After taking a look, the physician shook his head. "These are signs that his lifespan is coming to an end!"
A person's lifespan is determined by fate, and if one has really come to the end of his lifespan, it is impossible for any physician, regardless of how capable they are, to offer any help.
"While the title, Great Herb King, is well-known, it is actually a title that is passed on from one generation to the other. It has only been a few years since the old master had received the title, and he is currently only in his forties." Butler Lu hesitated for a moment before answering.
The Great Herb King of the Red Lotus City didn't refer specifically to anyone. Rather, it was like a noble conferment that could be passed on. Anyone who managed to become the Great Herb King would become the sovereign of the Red Lotus City.
"Still in his forties?"
The crowd was taken aback, and even Zhang Xuan was astounded.
At forty, a Zongshi realm expert should have been at the peak of his power. Regardless of strength, spirit, energy, or stamina, they should be at their best. It wasn't logical for his lifespan to reach its end at this age.
"Has he consumed the [Energy Rejuvenation Pill]?"
After hesitating for a moment, the 3-star physician asked.
Energy Rejuvenation Pill allows one's deteriorating physical condition to burst with strength once more. It is effective even on those who have reached the end of their lifespan.
"He has already consumed it, but... it isn't effective!" Butler Lu shook his head.
"Even the Energy Rejuvenation Pill is useless?"
This time, the 3-star physician wasn't the only one to frown. All of the physicians had grim expressions on their faces.
The Energy Rejuvenation Pill was a grade-2 pill, and it had mystical effects on Zongshi realm experts.
Its ineffectiveness meant that the physical condition of the Great Herb King had deteriorated to an unimaginable level.
"I know a set of acupuncture routine that can stimulate one's acupoints and recover their stamina. I can give it a try!"
Saying so, Physician Mu Hong stood up.
"I've heard of Physician Mu Hong's impressive acupuncture. It should be effective." The crowd nodded.
Without wasting any time, he retrieved his silver needles immediately and pierced them into the acupoints of the horizontally lying Great Herb King.
A moment later.
Shaking his head, Physician Mu Hong walked back.
His impressive acupuncture was renowned, but it was completely ineffective on the Great Herb King.
Someone else stood up.
Just like that, the physicians tried all of their specialties while discussing the condition of the Great Herb King. The various means and theories they raised left Mo Yu electrified.
Those who were present were the most incredible grandmaster physicians within their country, and even the worst of the lot here was much more skilled than Grandmaster Qing Yang. As a mere apprentice physician, she had never experienced such a majestic gathering. She benefitted greatly from their conversation, and her knowledge in the Way of Medicine deepened significantly.
Suppressing the agitation in her heart, she turned to Zhang Xuan and with a glance, her expression darkened.
She thought that the fellow would, like her, immerse himself in the profound theories that were spoken here. Yet, he was sitting blankly on the spot.
She was familiar with this expression. This was the confused look of an amateur who couldn't understand a single word. Do you not understand what they are saying?
How is this possible?
Unable to believe her eyes, she sent a telepathic message to him. "Zhang Xuan, I don't understand the [Extreme Treatment Method] that Physician Mu Hong spoke of. What does it mean?"
Taken aback by her sudden question, Zhang Xuan was stunned.
He hadn't browsed through much books on the Way of Medicine, so how could he know of these theories and terms?
He pondered for a moment before shaking his head, "I don't know either. I've never heard of it."
Mo Yu's vision turned gray.
Extreme Treatment Method was a diagnosis method that assumed the worst situation to determine the root of an illness. Needless to say physicians, even apprentices would have known it. Yet, this fellow said that he has never heard of it...
"Then... What about Observation Diagnosis Method?"
"I've never heard of it either!" Zhang Xuan shook his head.
There was only one 1-star physician in Tianxuan Kingdom, and he was Master Yuanyu. Zhang Xuan had never conversed with him about the Way of Medicine, so it wasn't wrong to say that he didn't know a single thing about medical theories.
Brother, are you that sick of living, or are you that bored?
Mo Yu felt a stifling sensation in her chest. At the same time, she was also baffled.
Zhang Xuan isn’t acquainted with the fundamentals of the Way of Medicine... but how was he able to diagnose the illness of the Howling Firmament Beast and Butler Lu accurately, and treat them?
While Mo Yu's thoughts were wandered, Zhang Xuan looked at the Great Herb King helplessly.
The Library of Heaven's Path could only compile a book when one executed a battle technique or when one was unconscious. Even though the Great Herb King was unable to speak a word, he was conscious.
His current situation was not much better than Shen Hong's back then, and if Zhang Xuan were to ask him to execute a battle technique for him... He would probably die before he could lift his fist.
On the other hand, if he were to reenact what he did with Shen Hong and knock the Great Herb King unconscious with a slap... It was highly likely that he would be cut into innumerable pieces before he could even read the contents of the book compiled.
Although this lounge seemed quiet, there were numerous experts lurking in the shadows.
If he were to make a move on the Great Herb King, these people would definitely charge out immediately.
Rubbing his glabella, Zhang Xuan scrabbled to find an excuse.
"I'm truly sorry. This is my first time seeing an illness like the Great Herb King's, and I am helpless before it!"
"Indeed, Butler Lu. We can't find any other possible solutions, sorry."
Mo Yu and Zhang Xuan were still deep in contemplation when Mu Hong and the others stood up and shook their heads in embarrassment.
In the end, they weren't even able to determine the illness of the other party, needless to say, treat him.
Looking at their expressions, Butler Lu couldn't help but reveal his disappointment.
Many physicians have come to and fro ever since the old master fell ill, and this wasn't his first time hearing such answers.
Shaking his head, Butler Lu was in the midst of addressing others when Physician Cheng Feng glanced at Zhang Xuan with a contemptuous gaze.
"Butler Lu, we have tried to diagnose the Great Herb King and discussed the matter, but if I'm not mistaken, this Physician Bai Chan whom you invited over has been sitting in the same spot throughout the whole time. Is it because he looks down on us, and does not think that we're worthy of his words? Or is it because he has an idea in mind and he doesn't want to discuss it with us?"
Hearing Physician Cheng Feng words, everyone was taken aback. At the same time, they recalled that the fellow named Bai Chan didn't seem to have spoken a single word throughout the entire diagnosis, as though a mute.
"This fellow has been seated the entire time!"
"Not just that, he didn't even say a single word."
"He's a mere 1-star physician, it would be weird if he could contribute to our discussions."
"It's because he knows that his skills are lacking that he chose not to speak. At the very least, he has avoided being mocked because of his words."
Recalling that the other party was just a 1-star physician, disdain flashed through their eyes.
A 1-star physician would be a respected figure anywhere else, just not here.
Given how even 3-star physicians didn't comprehend the illness, what could a 1-star physician possibly understand?
"It shouldn't be put like that. Since Butler Lu has specially invited him over and praised his mastery in the Way of Medicine, how can he possibly be afraid to speak up?" Physician Cheng Feng flashed a contemptuous smile at Zhang Xuan.
Butler Lu hesitated for a moment before turning to Zhang Xuan, "Physician Bai Chan..."
Since this Physician Bai was able to determine his illness with a glance, Butler Lu was confident in his medical skills. However, the other party hadn't spoken a word from the start to the end, and this had left him perplexed.
Only upon hearing Butler Lu call him did Zhang Xuan snap back to reality. With a puzzled look, he asked, "What's wrong?"
"The matter is like this!"
Butler Lu coughed, embarrassed by the fact that the fellow blanked out while the others were examining the old master. Then, he explained, "The other physicians were unable to determine the root of the old master's illness, and they would like to hear your opinion."
"They failed to even determine the root of the illness?"
Standing up, Zhang Xuan glanced at the crowd before shaking his head.
"Since they are unable to make it, I'll give it a try!"

"value": "Chapter 31: LI WEI’S PARENTS\nLike an arrow, Luo Feng shot through the grassy fields; his speed reaching an astonishing level. Using his spiritual force to lighten the burden and also using it to push on the shield on his back….. Luo Feng is moving much faster than he would if he was empty handed.\n“Hu~~”\nSprint! Sprint as fast as you can! Don’t stop sprinting!\n“I need to leave the scene as fast as possible. With Li Wei’s background, once he dies, his family will probably have some special type of advanced technology to notify them! When that happens, they might use a satellite to investigate the scene! If they find me, then I’ll be in trouble”\nLuo Feng doesn’t know much about satellites, and he doesn’t know how they work either.\nBut when the wargod ‘Lu Gang’ died, the satellite recorded the rat tide explosion. Quite a few people observed the recording through special means.\n“After they find out about Li Wei’s death and find the spot where he died, they’ll use a satellite to investigate….. all of these steps will certainly take time. What I need to do now is get as far away as possible as fast as possible. And running in the grassy fields should make it harder for the satellite to discover me” Luo Feng ran with his eyes red. Without his spiritual force, it’ll be impossible for Luo Feng to sprint faster than 100 m/s.\nBut now, his speed was around 150 m/s.\n150 m/s, which is near 900 meters every 6 seconds. That’ll be 9 km every minute! 45 km in 5 minutes!\nThis speed is extremely horrifying. Usually, only ‘intermediate warlords’ can achieve such a speed. However, Luo Feng didn’t dare to take any chances…..\nHe’ll never forget the time where two great wargods came to save the thunderbolt squad when they were surrounded by a monster horde. This shows how big Li Wei’s background was.\n“Thankfully, I’m a member of the Dojo of Limits”\n“Well, it’s too late to regret it now! My parents and brother are all living in the fighter sector of the Dojo of Limits anyway” Luo Feng has never worried about the safety of his family….. since if the fighters of the world join the Thunder Dojo or the Dojo of Limits, the safety of their families is guaranteed after moving to the respective Dojo’s ‘fighter sectors’.\nThere was once a case of the ‘Blood Blade’.\nAll of them were killed!\nImmediately, the public was enraged! Note that fighters frequently pass away in the wilderness. The family these fighters leave behind are always protected by all the fighters in their Dojo! Because nobody knows who will die and who will live, so naturally, everybody works together to protect each other’s families.\nSowhoever dared to lay a hand on a member of the dojo’s family, becomes the enemy of the entire dojo!\nOnce the news of Fang You’s families’ death spread around, all the fighters in the Dojo of Limits around the world enraged!\nIf you kill them, you become enemies with all the fighters in that dojo!\nAfter that, the world’s strongest fighter, ‘Hong’, personally appeared to investigate the matter. After finding out that the murderer was ‘Blood Blade’, he used all of the information networks in not only all the governments of the world, but also the HR alliance to search for the advanced level wargod fighter who fled to the wilderness. After that, an investigator whose authority was only below ‘Hong’, the chief instructor of the world headquarters of the Dojo of Limits, was sent out. This person was also an existence that surpassed the wargod level!\nThis investigator brought a staggering 36 wargods with him to hunt down ‘Blood Blade’!\nIn the end, Blood Blade killed himself. He was probably afraid of being caught and tortured!\nAfter that incident….. The creators of the two largest Dojos, the ‘Dojo of Limits’ and the ‘Thunder Dojo’Hong and Thunder God even hosted and broadcasted around the world the memorial meeting for Fang You’s family. These two absolute strongest fighters also expressed their anger in this memorial meeting!\nWhoever dares to touch a fighter’s family is declaring war against all the fighters in the Dojo of Limits and the Thunder Dojo.\nAnd in this memorial meeting, representatives have been sent out from each headquarter cities in the five countries of the world and even from the HR alliance to respond to these two strongest fighters! From then on….. nobody dared to harm a fighter’s family!\nEvery country has made it the law to prohibit fighters from killing each other. But as everyone knows, nobody can control what goes on in the wilderness. Also, fighters frequently fight on the border of life and death, so once they have a grudge, it’ll be normal for them to kill each other. So the killings between fighters….. every organization can only keep pretend to ignore it, unless someone has enough evidence like a video.\nOnly then, will the dojo or government take action.\nOr else, they wouldn’t deal with it.\nHowever….. if a grudge between two fighters start to affect their families, then they are dragging in all the powers of the entire world into the conflict!\n“Let’s enter #023 city” Luo Feng charged from the highway to the closeset city, #023 city. He was finally able to let out a sigh of relief when he arrived.\nThis #023 city is what was called ‘Suzhou city’ from before the Grand Nirvana period.\n“This city is big, so there are probably a lot of fighters here. I don’t want to attract a lot of attention while I’m here” thought Luo Feng to himself.\nNight.\nOn the highway, blood was splattered onto the bus on the side. The corpses of the four members of the thunderbolt squad were also on the ground.\nTen seconds after the mixed youth, Li Wei, died.\n“BEEP!” An area near the chest on the battle uniform of Li Wei’s headless corpse immediately sent out a signal!\nJiang-Nan headquarter city, main city area. In a small sector called ‘Jiang Nan mountain water’ that was ranked #2 out of the six most extravagant sectors in China and ranked #1 in Jiang-Nan city.\nIn the most extravagant area of the entire main city area were some preserved mountains and rivers. When Jiang-Nan headquarter city was first built, many of the mountains and hills had to be leveled in order to make room for the dense population. The mountains and hills were removed and replaced with many tall residential buildings. Only in this sector, which took up several miles, did these beautiful mountains exist. There were even man-made waterfalls and lakes, making this the place where countless high ranking government officials and rich people wished to live.\nYou can’t get into this place with just money. You can’t get into this place with just power!\nIn all of China, there are six headquarter cities!\nIn these six headquarter cities, beautiful sectors like these aren’t common. And this sector ranks first in Jiang-Nan headquarter city and ranks two in all of China.\nIn Jiang-Nan mountain water sector, a villa on the peak of Marvelous Mountain.\nThe misty starlight encapsulated the entire peak of the mountain. “HUAHUA~~” the sound of a waterfall carried from far away. On the balcony of the villa on the peak of the mountain was a person wearing a loose, deep blue uniform and sitting with his legs crossed. His cold face looked like a sculpted rock and, even though his eyes were closed, one could feel his cold aura emanating from him.\nHe was one of the strongest fighters on the entire earth, an advanced wargod ‘Li Yao’ whose nickname was ‘Vulture’!\n“BEEP BEEP!” An ear piercing sound suddenly came from a seemingly regular looking watch on his wrist.\n“Hm?” Li Yao suddenly ferociously opened his eyes, which flashed like lightning.\n“Wei!” Li Yao’s sculpture-like cold face suddenly let out a face of surprisement and rage.\n“Contact Wei’s two bodyguards” Li Yao commanded his watch. His watch was one of the most advanced products of the HR alliance, which is currently not sold on the market.\n“The two bodyguards died too?” a faintly glowing light could be seen in Li Yao’s eyes.\nWhoosh!\nLi Yao instantly transformed into a shadow as he directly rushed into the third floor of the villa. This third floor had dozens of rooms, one of which was a large auditorium. The hazy shadow came together and stood in the auditorium.\n“Turn on! Enter fighter search mode!”\nWith Li Yao’s command, a gigantic apparatus on the side of the auditorium shot out a misty light, which focused in the center of the auditorium and became a 3D hologram.\n“Mr. Li Yao”\nAll that could be seen in the 3D hologram was a person, who was an old man wearing a black suit. This black suit wearing old man was looking at Li Yao.\nActually, right when the 3D hologram was formed, the apparatus projecting the hologram also recorded Li Yao, which was then projected into another target in the auditorium.\n“Confirm the location of my son Li Wei” all that could be seen on Li Yao’s face was haste, “Search for the positions of all the wargods in a 100 mile radius of his position.\n“There are no wargods within a 100 mile radius of Li Wei’s position” said the black suit wearing old man.\n“How is that possible? Not even half a minute has passed yet” Li Wei’s face changed dramatically.\nWith the device in his son’s battle uniform, it’ll send a signal 10 seconds after it detects the heart stops beating. From then until Li Yao began his search, not even 30 seconds has passed. Even if a wargod runs past the speed of sound at a speed of 400 m/s, that isn’t even 30 miles yet. So how come nothing could be found?\n“How can this be…..”\n“Searching for wargods is a privilege granted through membership of the Palace of Wargods. Searching for warlords….. needs an S rank member of the underground alliance” said the black suit wearing old man. The HR alliance has a way to find out the positions of all warrior and warlord level fighters. However, the way the HR alliance uses to find them is a bit sneaky!\nThe ‘tactical communications watch’ they sell have a secret to them.\nHowever, they wouldn’t dare to reveal this secret!

第三十一章
罗峰宛如一根箭矢，迅的穿梭在野草荒田当中，度达到了一个惊人的地步。 用精神念力减轻负重，同时以精神念力在身后对盾牌施加推动的力量……这令罗峰的度，比空手奔跑还要快很多很多。
奔跑！
飞的奔跑！
一刻不停的奔跑！ “我必须以最快度逃离杀戮现场，以李威的背景，恐怕他一死，他的家族就有一些特殊科技手段得知李威死亡！ 到时候，说不定就会用卫星探查检测，乃至于记录周围的场景录像！
对于卫星探测，罗峰知道的并不多，也不懂得原理。
可是当初那位战神‘陆湖'身死，鼠潮爆，就被卫星给拍摄到了，甚务于有不少人通过一些特殊渠道还观察到了录像。
“确定李威死亡，确定李威所在地点，调用卫星拍摄……一个个步骡下来，这肯定需要一些时间。 我就是要在这最短时间尽量逃远一点，而且飞窜在野草丛中，拍摄难度估计也高。”
可是现在，他的度近乎在一秒15o米左右。
一秒15o米，6秒钟就是近乎9oo米，6o秒（一分钟）那就是9公里！ 五分钟就能跑到45公里！
他忘不了，当初雷霆校对遇到兽群围攻，仅仅没多久，那两大战神就出现来营救他们。
这说明那李威少爷的背景，运转度的确惊人。
“幸媚，我是极限武依一员。”
反正我父母弟弟，都住在极限武馆的武者小区。” 罗峰根本没担心过父母的安全……其实全世界的武者们，只要是加入雷电武馆或者是极限武馆，搬迁到武馆拥有的‘武者小区'后，都根本不再担心家人安全问题！
当年，曾经生过一件‘血刀事件。
这一下立即就惹了众怒了！ 要知道，在荒野区中闯荡，是经常有武者死去的。
这些武者死去遗留的亲人，会得到极限武馆所有武者的保护！ 因为，今天是别人死，或许明天，自己也会死去，大家自然而然齐心合力，保护武者们家属。
所以一一谁敢对武馆家属动手，就是整个武馆的敌人！
那位房佑亲人的死去的消息传出，全世界所有极限武馆的武者，都震怒了！
武者家属，那就是逆鳞！
杀了一家，就是和全世界极限武馆武者为敌！ 随后，世界第一强者‘洪'出面，在查出凶手是‘血刀，后，又动用了全世界各国政府情报网、“R联盟情报网，搜索那位逃到荒野区的高等战神强者。 之后极限武馆全球总部，地位仅次于总馆长‘洪，的一位巡察使，这位巡察使，也是越战神级的存在！
以巡察使带队，带领了足足36位战神级武者，追杀‘血刀，！
结局，血刀竟然自己自杀。
因为这一件事情，世界两大级武馆‘极限武馆，‘雷电武馆'的两位创始人一一洪和雷神，还举行了一场全球直播那位‘房佑，死去亲人们的悼念会，这两大绝世强者在这悼念活动中，也进行亍最愤怒的声明！
胆敢伤害任何一个武眷家属，那就是和极限武馆、雷电武馆所有武者为敌！
而在这场悼念会上，世界五大强国，各个基地市，乃至于hR联盟都派出代表，响应这两位绝世强者！ 自此……再无任何一个人，胆敢伤害武者的亲属家人！
国家明令禁止武者相互厮杀，不过大家也都知道，一来荒野区没办法监管，二来武者经常闯荡在生死间，彼此仇怨大了，厮杀是常有的事情。 所以，武者和武者之间杀戮……各个组织都是睁一只眼闭一只眼，除非谁有充足证据，比如录像等等。
这样，武馆、政府等才会出手。
否则，都不会理会。
可是……武者和武者的仇怨，一旦谁迁怒到家属亲人，那就几乎等于是和全世界最强的各个势力、各个强者为敌。
“进入o23号城市”罗峰一口气从高公路，冲到离那最近的城市o23号城市后，也松了一口气。
这o23号城市，是大涅盘时期之前的‘苏州市'。
“这城市比较大，里面武者肯定也很多，我在这，也根本不起眼。” 罗峰暗松一口气。
夜。
高公路上，鲜血洒在旁边的大巴车上，雷霆小队四人的尸体也倒下。
在混血儿青年‘李威，死去的第十秒钟。
李威的无头尸体，穿着的作战服胸口位置，微微一震，立即一道讯息已经传送了出去！
江南基地市，主市区，华夏国最顶尖的六大豪奢小区中排名第二，江南基地市排名第一的‘江南山水，小区内。 江南山水小区。
整个主市区最豪奢的地段，这里有着被保存着未被毁掉的山山水水，当初江南基地市建立，因为密集人口的需要，绝大多数山丘等都被铲平，填到一些低洼的地方，一座座高层住宅楼建成。 唯有这一大概足有数公里范围的区域，占地广，漂亮的一座座小山，还有被人工特意引导产生的瀑布、湖水，令这里成为无数富豪、政府高层梦想居住的地方。
这地方，单单有钱买不到，单单有权也买不到！
毕竟整个华夏国，一起六个基地市！
西六个基地市中，这种美丽的区域也是屈指可数。 这可是江南基地市第一，全华夏排名第二的小区。
迷蒙的星光笼罩整座山峰“哗哗~~”远处瀑布的声音传来，山顶别墅天台上，一身深蓝色宽松练功夫的身影，盘膝静坐着。
他披散着长，宛如岩石雕刻的冷漠脸上，即使是闭着眼都让人感觉到冰冷气息。 整个人，有着让人心悸的煞气！
他，就是全世界名气极大的一代强者，人称‘秃鹫，的高等战神李耀'！
“滴湍滴！” 刺耳的声音忽然从手腕的看似普通的手表中传来。
“嗯？” 李耀猛然睁开眼，宛如闪昝霹雳闪烁。
“阿威！” 李雅那宛如岩石般冷漠的脸上，露出了惊怒之色。
李耀对着手表出声控命令，他的手表是hR联盟最先进的产品，现如今的市场上都没有销售。
“两个保镖也都死了？” 李辎双眸隐隐泛着厉芒。
嗖！
李榨整个人立即化作一道幻影，直接窜入别墅内部三楼，这三楼足足有十几个房间，其中有一个大的视听室，模糊的幻影凝聚，站在视听室中。
“开启！ 进入武者搜索模式！”
随着李耀下令，视听室边缘一座巨型的仪器立即投射出了迷蒙光芒，光芒在视听宣的中央聚集，形成三维立体投影。
“李耀先生。”
只见三维立体投影中，出现了一道人影，是一名银的黑西服老者。 这黑西服老者看着李耀。
其实在三维投影的同时，那三维投影仪器也摄录了李耀的影像，投射到了另外一名对象的视听室内。
“确定我儿子李威的坐标。” 李椎面上满是煞气“搜索周围百里内战神的位置。”
“李威周围百里内，元战神。” 黑西服老者开口道。
“怎么可能？ 才过去半分钟不到。” 李耀面色橄变。
以他儿子作战服内置的信号器，是在检测到心跳停止十秒后才送讯息回来，而到李耀现在搜查，还不到三十秒。 以战神的度，就算是过音，达到4o米每秒，也不足三十里地，怎么会搜索不到？
搜索战将……需要联盟s级授权。”
黑西服老者开口道，其实hR联盟有方法，查探到战士级、战将级武者所在的方位。 可是这hR联盟用的方法有些阴险！
因为通讯手表可以银行转帐等等诸多用途，所以是和每一个人武者卡、身份证号连接！ 通过通讯手表位置，自然确定每一个人的位置。
可是通讯手表留有后门这事情，是不敢公开的！ 一旦说出去，会遭到成千上万的武者抵制，虽然说川2联盟的势力，早就垄断了通讯手表生意，可他们也不敢惹众怒。 所以……想要通过后门，搜索各个级别武者的位置，是需要s级授权的。
在整个地下联盟，也只有最顶尖最顶尖的高层，才有资格去做。
“轰！” 一道气爆声从远处传来。
一道人影瞬间冲进了视听室，正是一头金黄色头的白人贵妇人，可是这时候她那精致的面孔却显得有些扭曲，身上的礼服也因为极飞窜下雨有些破损……之前她在参加一个酒会，她是同时和李斑现儿子死的讯息的。
“耀！” 这美妇人眼睛都红了。
“现在可以搜索了吧。” 李椎盯着三维虚拟投影中的‘黑西服老者'，黑西服老者却是看向美妇人。
这美妇人，乃是hR联盟中最核心的九大家族之一波莱纳斯家族'当代族长的亲妹妹，同时还是一名高等战神，人称‘毒蝎，的维妮娜※波莱纳斯。 现如今，是hR联盟华夏区的的执行总裁。
hR联盟在华夏国的成员中，她地位能排在第三，拥有s级授权。

Chapter 31: LI WEI’S PARENTS
Like an arrow, Luo Feng shot through the grassy fields; his speed reaching an astonishing level. Using his spiritual force to lighten the burden and also using it to push on the shield on his back….. Luo Feng is moving much faster than he would if he was empty handed.
“Hu~~”
Sprint! Sprint as fast as you can! Don’t stop sprinting!
“I need to leave the scene as fast as possible. With Li Wei’s background, once he dies, his family will probably have some special type of advanced technology to notify them! When that happens, they might use a satellite to investigate the scene! If they find me, then I’ll be in trouble”
Luo Feng doesn’t know much about satellites, and he doesn’t know how they work either.
But when the wargod ‘Lu Gang’ died, the satellite recorded the rat tide explosion. Quite a few people observed the recording through special means.
“After they find out about Li Wei’s death and find the spot where he died, they’ll use a satellite to investigate….. all of these steps will certainly take time. What I need to do now is get as far away as possible as fast as possible. And running in the grassy fields should make it harder for the satellite to discover me” Luo Feng ran with his eyes red. Without his spiritual force, it’ll be impossible for Luo Feng to sprint faster than 100 m/s.
But now, his speed was around 150 m/s.
150 m/s, which is near 900 meters every 6 seconds. That’ll be 9 km every minute! 45 km in 5 minutes!
This speed is extremely horrifying. Usually, only ‘intermediate warlords’ can achieve such a speed. However, Luo Feng didn’t dare to take any chances…..
He’ll never forget the time where two great wargods came to save the thunderbolt squad when they were surrounded by a monster horde. This shows how big Li Wei’s background was.
“Thankfully, I’m a member of the Dojo of Limits”
“Well, it’s too late to regret it now! My parents and brother are all living in the fighter sector of the Dojo of Limits anyway” Luo Feng has never worried about the safety of his family….. since if the fighters of the world join the Thunder Dojo or the Dojo of Limits, the safety of their families is guaranteed after moving to the respective Dojo’s ‘fighter sectors’.
There was once a case of the ‘Blood Blade’.
All of them were killed!
Immediately, the public was enraged! Note that fighters frequently pass away in the wilderness. The family these fighters leave behind are always protected by all the fighters in their Dojo! Because nobody knows who will die and who will live, so naturally, everybody works together to protect each other’s families.
Sowhoever dared to lay a hand on a member of the dojo’s family, becomes the enemy of the entire dojo!
Once the news of Fang You’s families’ death spread around, all the fighters in the Dojo of Limits around the world enraged!
If you kill them, you become enemies with all the fighters in that dojo!
After that, the world’s strongest fighter, ‘Hong’, personally appeared to investigate the matter. After finding out that the murderer was ‘Blood Blade’, he used all of the information networks in not only all the governments of the world, but also the HR alliance to search for the advanced level wargod fighter who fled to the wilderness. After that, an investigator whose authority was only below ‘Hong’, the chief instructor of the world headquarters of the Dojo of Limits, was sent out. This person was also an existence that surpassed the wargod level!
This investigator brought a staggering 36 wargods with him to hunt down ‘Blood Blade’!
In the end, Blood Blade killed himself. He was probably afraid of being caught and tortured!
After that incident….. The creators of the two largest Dojos, the ‘Dojo of Limits’ and the ‘Thunder Dojo’Hong and Thunder God even hosted and broadcasted around the world the memorial meeting for Fang You’s family. These two absolute strongest fighters also expressed their anger in this memorial meeting!
Whoever dares to touch a fighter’s family is declaring war against all the fighters in the Dojo of Limits and the Thunder Dojo.
And in this memorial meeting, representatives have been sent out from each headquarter cities in the five countries of the world and even from the HR alliance to respond to these two strongest fighters! From then on….. nobody dared to harm a fighter’s family!
Every country has made it the law to prohibit fighters from killing each other. But as everyone knows, nobody can control what goes on in the wilderness. Also, fighters frequently fight on the border of life and death, so once they have a grudge, it’ll be normal for them to kill each other. So the killings between fighters….. every organization can only keep pretend to ignore it, unless someone has enough evidence like a video.
Only then, will the dojo or government take action.
Or else, they wouldn’t deal with it.
However….. if a grudge between two fighters start to affect their families, then they are dragging in all the powers of the entire world into the conflict!
“Let’s enter #023 city” Luo Feng charged from the highway to the closeset city, #023 city. He was finally able to let out a sigh of relief when he arrived.
This #023 city is what was called ‘Suzhou city’ from before the Grand Nirvana period.
“This city is big, so there are probably a lot of fighters here. I don’t want to attract a lot of attention while I’m here” thought Luo Feng to himself.
Night.
On the highway, blood was splattered onto the bus on the side. The corpses of the four members of the thunderbolt squad were also on the ground.
Ten seconds after the mixed youth, Li Wei, died.
“BEEP!” An area near the chest on the battle uniform of Li Wei’s headless corpse immediately sent out a signal!
Jiang-Nan headquarter city, main city area. In a small sector called ‘Jiang Nan mountain water’ that was ranked #2 out of the six most extravagant sectors in China and ranked #1 in Jiang-Nan city.
In the most extravagant area of the entire main city area were some preserved mountains and rivers. When Jiang-Nan headquarter city was first built, many of the mountains and hills had to be leveled in order to make room for the dense population. The mountains and hills were removed and replaced with many tall residential buildings. Only in this sector, which took up several miles, did these beautiful mountains exist. There were even man-made waterfalls and lakes, making this the place where countless high ranking government officials and rich people wished to live.
You can’t get into this place with just money. You can’t get into this place with just power!
In all of China, there are six headquarter cities!
In these six headquarter cities, beautiful sectors like these aren’t common. And this sector ranks first in Jiang-Nan headquarter city and ranks two in all of China.
In Jiang-Nan mountain water sector, a villa on the peak of Marvelous Mountain.
The misty starlight encapsulated the entire peak of the mountain. “HUAHUA~~” the sound of a waterfall carried from far away. On the balcony of the villa on the peak of the mountain was a person wearing a loose, deep blue uniform and sitting with his legs crossed. His cold face looked like a sculpted rock and, even though his eyes were closed, one could feel his cold aura emanating from him.
He was one of the strongest fighters on the entire earth, an advanced wargod ‘Li Yao’ whose nickname was ‘Vulture’!
“BEEP BEEP!” An ear piercing sound suddenly came from a seemingly regular looking watch on his wrist.
“Hm?” Li Yao suddenly ferociously opened his eyes, which flashed like lightning.
“Wei!” Li Yao’s sculpture-like cold face suddenly let out a face of surprisement and rage.
“Contact Wei’s two bodyguards” Li Yao commanded his watch. His watch was one of the most advanced products of the HR alliance, which is currently not sold on the market.
“The two bodyguards died too?” a faintly glowing light could be seen in Li Yao’s eyes.
Whoosh!
Li Yao instantly transformed into a shadow as he directly rushed into the third floor of the villa. This third floor had dozens of rooms, one of which was a large auditorium. The hazy shadow came together and stood in the auditorium.
“Turn on! Enter fighter search mode!”
With Li Yao’s command, a gigantic apparatus on the side of the auditorium shot out a misty light, which focused in the center of the auditorium and became a 3D hologram.
“Mr. Li Yao”
All that could be seen in the 3D hologram was a person, who was an old man wearing a black suit. This black suit wearing old man was looking at Li Yao.
Actually, right when the 3D hologram was formed, the apparatus projecting the hologram also recorded Li Yao, which was then projected into another target in the auditorium.
“Confirm the location of my son Li Wei” all that could be seen on Li Yao’s face was haste, “Search for the positions of all the wargods in a 100 mile radius of his position.
“There are no wargods within a 100 mile radius of Li Wei’s position” said the black suit wearing old man.
“How is that possible? Not even half a minute has passed yet” Li Wei’s face changed dramatically.
With the device in his son’s battle uniform, it’ll send a signal 10 seconds after it detects the heart stops beating. From then until Li Yao began his search, not even 30 seconds has passed. Even if a wargod runs past the speed of sound at a speed of 400 m/s, that isn’t even 30 miles yet. So how come nothing could be found?
“How can this be…..”
“Searching for wargods is a privilege granted through membership of the Palace of Wargods. Searching for warlords….. needs an S rank member of the underground alliance” said the black suit wearing old man. The HR alliance has a way to find out the positions of all warrior and warlord level fighters. However, the way the HR alliance uses to find them is a bit sneaky!
The ‘tactical communications watch’ they sell have a secret to them.
However, they wouldn’t dare to reveal this secret! Once they reveal it, millions of fighters will start to boycott their things. Even though they’re the only power that currently sells tactical communication watches, they didn’t dare to enrage the public. So…… only an S rank member of the underground alliance is allowed to use this function to search for fighters lower than the wargod level.
Only the highest of highest ranking members in the underground alliance have the authority to do that.
And advanced level wargod ‘Li Yao’ did not have such authority.
“BOOM!” an explosion carried from far away. A shadow instantly charged into the auditorium, a white, blond haired lady. However, her delicate face was a bit twisted and her dress was a bit ruined under her extreme sprinting….. she was previously attending a banquet and, like Li Yao, received news of her son’s death.
“Yao!” this elegant lady’s eyes were red.
“We can search now right” Li Yao stared at the ‘black suit wearing old man’ in the 3D hologram. However, the black suit wearing old man was looking at the elegant lady.
This lady was the blood sister of the current director of the Paulinus family, one of the nine core families of the HR alliance. At the same time, she was also the advanced level wargod Venina※Paulinus, nickname ‘Scorpion’. As of now, she’s the director of HR alliance’s Huaxia sector.
She ranks 3 in the members of the HR alliance in China, so she is an S rank member.

He quickly stood up from the ground and forced himself to suppress all his emotions.\nThe sun recently rose and all of Fire Beacon City was basked in the warm sunlight.\nHowever, Zuo Qianshou’s place was covered with a black mist and a depressing atmosphere.\nSha Hangyun carried Ji Cangyue over, revealing a cruel glint under his eyes as he smiled: “This girl is a Death Spirit Child of the Ji Clan, and she is actually from Ji Lingxuan’s first branch. She has a similar appearance as well. Master Zuo has the utmost hatred against the Ji Clan so I’m sure you won’t refuse this gift, right?”\nSha Hangyun believed that no man would be able to refuse such a gift!\nAlthough Ji Cangyue’s stunning appearance still looked calm, she couldn’t hide the fear in her eyes. Sha Hangyun captured her just to hand her over to an old man, plus this old man and her aunt had such a past. This was over for her!\nHer heart sank to the bottom. It seemed that she will not only be unable to maintain her chastity, but she might have to forfeit her life as well.\nZuo Qianshou thought for a moment, then he shook his head and said: “This is my issue with Ji Lingxuan, so it has nothing to do with other people. Plus, this matter happened so long ago that I have completely let go of it. Supreme should just take your gift and leave! I will not help anyone with any favors anymore.”\nThe heaviness in Ji Cangyue’s heart was lifted, but the hand gripping her neck tightened and almost broke her neck.\n“Master Zuo truly disappointed me. If this is the case, then this Sha Hangyun can only make you go to the Ji Clan myself. I’ll be offending you.”\nSha Hangyun coldly stared at Ji Cangyue. An evil aura seeped into her pretty eyes, causing her to faint, then it threw her outside.\nHer delicate body slammed into a tree, causing a loud bang to resound before she finally fell onto the ground.\nJi Cangyue was definitely a supreme beauty with similarities to Divine Consort Ji Lingxuan, but Sha Hangyun didn’t care for the fairer sex and discarded her like trash. This was an Abnormality!\n“Boom!”\nThe black mist on Sha Hangyun’s body began to move; a huge claw with black scales reached outward. It was like a small mountain and it immediately shattered seven or eight formations.\nThe ground trembled ferociously. Feng Feiyun felt a monstrous energy coming from underground. He could resist this force only by channeling all of his spirit energy in his body.\n“Brat, Sha Hangyun’s cultivation has reached the Nirvana realm, I am not necessarily his match. Wait a bit and escape when you find an opening! If you can run to the Huang Feng Ridge, then tell that old Feng Dugu to quickly come and save me.”\nZuo Qianshou assumed that Feng Feiyun was the Third Boss’ disciple so he didn’t want to involve him lest he dies at the hands of Sha Hangyun!\nAlthough Zuo Qianshou was a Treasure Seeking Master with techniques capable of suppressing the Yang World Three Strange, Sha Hangyun’s cultivation was several levels higher than him. Even if he used a heaven-defying formation with an Abnormality suppressing art, it was still difficult to be Sha Hangyun’s opponent.\nHe finally activated his most powerful formation technique; his left hand rapidly formed arrays in the air. Although he only had one arm, there were images of more than one thousand hands in the air and they quickly carved out a fifth rank teleportation formation. Then, he shot it to Feng Feiyun’s head.\nThe forming speed and rank of this formation was countless times better than Feng Feiyun’s.\nNot to mention that although this spatial formation could only traverse a short distance, there were no more than three people in the entire Jin Dynasty that were capable of carving such an array.\n“Xshh!” Spatial fluctuations started to form and a brilliant white light appeared. One second later, Feng Feiyun appeared outside of the wooden house ten meters behind Sha Hangyun.\nEven though Sha Hangyun was trying to break the formation, he still felt the spatial change right behind him so he unleashed a black mist as fast as lightning towards Feng Feiyun's chest.\nAlthough this was just a casual blow, it was equal to an attack from a Giant — extremely powerful and unstoppable.\nFeng Feiyun first joined together with Mao Wugui once more. A divine turtle armor covered his body like a steel jade plating and it blocked this attack. “Boom!”\nA hole with a ten meter radius was formed on the ground. Inside the dark space, soil was eroding by the dense black mist.\n“Sha Hangyun, do you know who you just killed?” Zuo Qianshou thought that Feng Feiyun had died in the hands of Sha Hangyun, so he rushed out from the wooden house. He drew a divine cloud compass with a ten meter diameter that resembled a giant mirror to stop the attacks that were approaching Feng Feiyun.\n“I have never cared about the consequences when I kill people!” Sha Hangyun’s body that was covered in a black mist became larger and larger. It became even more frightening, so frightening that one could faintly see the black feathers inside.\nAn Abnormality naturally was not a human; his human body was shaped by a great technique. His real body was hundreds of meters high like a terrifying mountain.\nZuo Qianshou and Feng Dugu had a great relationship; he didn’t expect Feng Dugu’s disciple to die right in front of him, and it made him very guilty.\nHowever, Sha Hangyun was no longer like what he was before. His cultivation was countless times stronger than two hundred years ago. It might have caught up to Feng Dugu’s cultivation so, naturally, there was no need for him to be afraid of Feng Dugu.\n“Whoosh!” A white light flew out from the crater. Feng Feiyun was now holding Ji Cangyue with one hand, and then he started to escape: “Senior Zuo, I will find someone to help you.”\nSha Hangyun muttered a surprised, “oh.” Strange, his attack actually didn’t kill an early God Base cultivator!\n“Where are you escaping to!” Sha Hangyun noticed the weirdness of Feng Feiyun and felt a familiar aura on his body, so he instinctively felt that he could not let him escape.\nA black tornado swept by. Sha Hangyun’s humanoid body suddenly turned ten meters taller like a black giant and reached out for Feng Feiyun with one hand. “Boom!”\nZuo Qianshou carved out eighteen formations in a row and activated them together to break Sha Hangyun’s world-shattering attack, then he coldly said: “Sha Hangyun, you are not worthy of being a Yang World’s Supreme. You actually made a move against a junior like this, have you no shame?”\n“Killing is never a shameful thing!”\nSha Hangyun unleashed a fist with all of his strength. Fire and thunder shot out and it knocked Zuo Qianshou flying away, leaving him with a wound as blood was flowing out nonstop.\nFaster! Faster! Faster! Feng Feiyun constantly shouted in his mind. He didn’t understand why Sha Hangyun turned mad and abandoned Zuo Qianshou to crazily kill him.\nEven though he was as fast as the wind and evasive like a ghost, the black clouds still rolled down on him from above as a giant scaled claw slowly loomed over his head.\nAlthough it seemed slow, but in a flash, the claw was already next to him as if it wanted to crush him into pieces. “Whoosh!”\nBefore the wind reached his body, Feng Feiyun already felt his bones and muscles being squeezed by the pressure; he had no choice but to unleash his corpse fire.\nA green corpse fire immediately eroded Sha Hangyun’s claw.\n“Second Dark Hell Flame?” Sha Hangyun’s claw was wounded so he quickly pulled back and let out a scream.\nFeng Feiyun’s body was soaked in sweat and he didn’t have time to think. He rapidly ran forward. If only he could escape Fire Beacon City, then even Sha Hangyun would have a difficult time killing him.\n“Boom!” After escaping for three extra seconds, the black clouds began to follow him once more.\nRight when he felt desperation, he suddenly saw a stunning figure in a blue pavilion right in front of him.\nShe seemed to be waiting just for Feng Feiyun. Although her back was turned, her aura was completely focused on him and she said: “Hand the corpse palace over, now!”\nXiao Nuolan had a peach flower in her hand; the flower still had some dew with spirit energy circulating on it.\nShe seemed to be enjoying the flowers, but she had already entrapped Feng Feiyun’s escape path.\nFeng Feiyun quickly stopped and cursed his unlucky day. He actually encountered two ferocious people, one even more dangerous than the other. Could today really be his fateful end?"

第一百五十七章
左千手不愧是一名九品的寻宝师，虽然被勾起了往昔的惨痛回忆，几近崩溃，但是他道心坚定，意志力也足够的强大，很快就从地上站了起来，强迫自己将所有的情绪都给压下去。
太阳初升，整个烽火连城都沐浴在和煦的阳光之下。
煞行云擒着纪沧月，黑袍之下的双目带着凶光，笑道：“这女子乃是纪家年轻一代的死灵子，更是属于纪灵萱一系的纪家子弟，模样和纪灵萱有三分相似。
左大师和纪家仇恨不共戴天，肯定不会拒绝这一份厚礼吧？”
煞行云相信任何一个男人都不会拒绝这样的礼物！
纪沧月一张绝色容颜虽然依旧显得平静，但是却无法掩饰眼中的一丝恐惧，煞行云将她擒来，竟然是要将她送给一个糟老头，而且遭老头还和自己的姑姑有那么大的仇恨，这下完了！
她的心沉入了谷底，看来今曰不仅清白难保，就连姓命都可能交代在这里。
左千手沉思了片刻，摇了摇头，道：“这是我和纪灵萱的恩怨，与别人无关，而且事情已经过去了这么多年，我早就已经将之完全放下，尊者还是带着你的礼物离开吧！ 左某是不会再出手帮任何人，做任何事。”
纪沧月的心头一松，而捏着她脖子之上的那一只手爪却是猛的一沉，差一点她的脖子都给捏断。
“左大师还真是让我失望，既然如此，煞行云就只有亲自动手请左大师一同前往纪家本府，得罪了。”
煞行云冷冷的盯了纪沧月一眼，一道魔姓的气息便注入了她的一双美眸之中，让她直接晕厥了过去，然后将她给扔飞了出去。
娇躯撞在了那一颗槐树之上，嘭的一声，落在地上。
纪沧月再怎么说也是一位绝代的佳人，与神妃纪灵萱都有几分神似，但是煞行云却丝毫都不怜香惜玉，将之弃如草芥。
“轰！”
煞行云身上黑雾涌动，黑袍散裂开，一只巨大的漆黑的鳞爪伸了出来，足有小山那么大，将七、八座阵法瞬间震碎。
地面猛的颤动，风飞云感觉到有庞大的力量从足底传来，只有全力运转身上的灵气，才能抵挡这一股力量。
“小子，煞行云的修为已经进入化境，我也未必是他对手，待会你就见机逃命吧！ 若是可以赶到黄枫岭，叫风孤独那老家伙速速前来救我。”
左千手以为风飞云乃是三当家的弟子，所以并不想连累他死在了煞行云的手中！
左千手虽然乃是寻宝师，拥有压制阳界三异的秘术手段，但是煞行云的修为比他高出了数个等级，就算用出了逆天的阵法和镇压异形异的秘术，也很难是煞行云的对手。
他总算是展现出了他强大的阵法神通，左手急速在空气之中的刻画阵法，虽然他只有一只手，但是空气之中却呈现出上千只手的影子，一个瞬间就将一座五级的移动阵法刻录成功，打在了风飞云的头顶。
布阵的速度和阵法的品级，比风飞云不知高明了多少倍。
更何况还是这种空间移动的阵法，虽然只是短程穿梭，但是整个神晋王朝能够刻录出空间移动阵法的人，绝对不会超过三个。
空间发生波动，眼前出现绚丽的白光，下一刻风飞云已经出现在了木屋的外面，站在了煞行云身后的十多丈开外。
煞行云虽然在出手破阵，但是却也感应到了身后的空间波动，一道黑色的烟雾随手打出，闪电一般的向着风飞云的胸口飞去。
这虽然只是煞行云的随手一击，但是却相当于巨擎出手，威力绝伦，不可抵挡。
风飞云在第一时间与茅乌龟再次融合身躯，一具神铁一般的乌龟壳便穿在了身上，皮肤变得就如钢玉一般，硬接了这一招。
地面被打出了一个直径十多米的巨坑，里面漆黑一片，土壤腐蚀得冒着浓烟。
“煞行云，你可知道你杀的乃是何人？” 左千手以为风飞云死在了煞行云的手中，从乌木之中冲了出来，单手在空气之中画出了一个白色的巨大的神纹罗盘，直径足有十米，就像一面巨大的灵光古镜，挡住了煞行云的攻伐。
“老夫杀人，从来不计后果！” 煞行云全身都被黑雾给包裹，身躯越来越高大，有的躯体从黑雾之中暴露了出来，显得十分的狰狞恐怖，隐约间都能看到一道道黑毛血痕。
异形异自然不能算是人，煞行云的人类身躯都是他以大神通凝聚，他本来的身躯足有数百米高，就像一座恐怖的山岳。
左千手和风独孤的交情极深，没想到风独孤的弟子死在了自己的面前，让他心头十分的愧疚。
不过煞行云这老魔的确已经今非昔比，修为比之两百年前不知强大了多少倍，恐怕已经追赶上了风独孤的境界，甚至已经在伯仲之间。
一道白光从那十多米大的巨坑之中飞出，坐在了巨坑的边上，风飞云一手将地上的纪沧月给抱起，然后便夺路就逃，“左前辈，我定然请人来救你。”
煞行云轻咦了一声，怪事，自己的一招竟然没有将一个神基初期的修士给击杀！
“哪里逃！” 煞行云察觉到风飞云的诡异之处，更在他的身上感应到一股熟悉的气息，本能的觉得不能将他逃脱。
一股黑旋风席卷，煞行云的身躯已经从人类的大小，长到了十多米高，就像一尊黑色的巨人，一手向着风飞云按去。
左千手一连刻录出十八座阵法，同时轰出，将煞行云这毁天灭地的一招给破去，厉声道：“煞行云亏你还是阳界的尊者，竟然对一个小辈下如此狠手，也不嫌害臊。”
“杀人，从来都不是一件害臊的事！”
煞行云全力轰出一拳，电光和火花直冒，将左千手给轰飞了出去，胸口之上裂出一道血痕，不断的流淌出血液来。
这才是煞行云真正的实力，在巨擎之中都算是强者。 快！
快！ 风飞云心头不断的呐喊，这煞行云也不知是发了什么疯，竟然舍弃了左千手，疯狂的来追杀他，让他感觉到莫名其妙。
虽然看似缓慢，但是仅仅一个刹那，煞行云的巨爪就已经将风飞云给包裹，就好像要将他给捏得粉碎。
这一股掌风还没有擦中身体，风飞云就感觉到骨头和肌肉都被挤压得噼里啪啦的响动，被迫无奈只能打出了尸火。
一道惨绿色的尸火飞出，瞬间就将煞行云的巨爪给腐蚀得“嗤嗤”作响。
“二昧溟火？” 煞行云手爪受伤，连忙收回手爪，发出一声惊呼。
风飞云全身都被汗水给浸湿，根本没有思考的时间，继续急速的向前奔逃，只要能够逃出烽火连城，那么煞行云想要杀他就难了。
风飞云才奔逃了三个呼吸的时间，身后的黑云便又追了上来。
就在风飞云已经感觉到绝望的时候，前方的古街之畔的青色亭子之中，忽的显现出一个绝美的身影。
她似乎专门在等风飞云一般，就背对着风飞云，但是她身上的气感却已经完全将风飞云给锁定，道：“将尸宫交出来吧！”
萧诺兰手捏一株夏曰桃花，粉红沾露，上面还流转这一道道灵芒。
她似乎是在赏花，但是却又封死了风飞云的前路。
风飞云急速的停下了脚步，心头大骂一声晦气，一曰之间竟然遭遇到两位狠人，一个比一个凶残，难道今天真的是我风飞云命绝之曰？

Chapter 157: Between Life And Death
Zuo Qianshou was indeed a ninth rank Treasure Seeking Master; even though he had almost collapsed from the pain of his evoked bitter memories, his dao heart and will were still strong. He quickly stood up from the ground and forced himself to suppress all his emotions.
The sun recently rose and all of Fire Beacon City was basked in the warm sunlight.
However, Zuo Qianshou’s place was covered with a black mist and a depressing atmosphere.
Sha Hangyun carried Ji Cangyue over, revealing a cruel glint under his eyes as he smiled: “This girl is a Death Spirit Child of the Ji Clan, and she is actually from Ji Lingxuan’s first branch. She has a similar appearance as well. Master Zuo has the utmost hatred against the Ji Clan so I’m sure you won’t refuse this gift, right?”
Sha Hangyun believed that no man would be able to refuse such a gift!
Although Ji Cangyue’s stunning appearance still looked calm, she couldn’t hide the fear in her eyes. Sha Hangyun captured her just to hand her over to an old man, plus this old man and her aunt had such a past. This was over for her!
Her heart sank to the bottom. It seemed that she will not only be unable to maintain her chastity, but she might have to forfeit her life as well.
Zuo Qianshou thought for a moment, then he shook his head and said: “This is my issue with Ji Lingxuan, so it has nothing to do with other people. Plus, this matter happened so long ago that I have completely let go of it. Supreme should just take your gift and leave! I will not help anyone with any favors anymore.”
The heaviness in Ji Cangyue’s heart was lifted, but the hand gripping her neck tightened and almost broke her neck.
“Master Zuo truly disappointed me. If this is the case, then this Sha Hangyun can only make you go to the Ji Clan myself. I’ll be offending you.”
Sha Hangyun coldly stared at Ji Cangyue. An evil aura seeped into her pretty eyes, causing her to faint, then it threw her outside.
Her delicate body slammed into a tree, causing a loud bang to resound before she finally fell onto the ground.
Ji Cangyue was definitely a supreme beauty with similarities to Divine Consort Ji Lingxuan, but Sha Hangyun didn’t care for the fairer sex and discarded her like trash. This was an Abnormality!
“Boom!”
The black mist on Sha Hangyun’s body began to move; a huge claw with black scales reached outward. It was like a small mountain and it immediately shattered seven or eight formations.
The ground trembled ferociously. Feng Feiyun felt a monstrous energy coming from underground. He could resist this force only by channeling all of his spirit energy in his body.
“Brat, Sha Hangyun’s cultivation has reached the Nirvana realm, I am not necessarily his match. Wait a bit and escape when you find an opening! If you can run to the Huang Feng Ridge, then tell that old Feng Dugu to quickly come and save me.”
Zuo Qianshou assumed that Feng Feiyun was the Third Boss’ disciple so he didn’t want to involve him lest he dies at the hands of Sha Hangyun!
Although Zuo Qianshou was a Treasure Seeking Master with techniques capable of suppressing the Yang World Three Strange, Sha Hangyun’s cultivation was several levels higher than him. Even if he used a heaven-defying formation with an Abnormality suppressing art, it was still difficult to be Sha Hangyun’s opponent.
He finally activated his most powerful formation technique; his left hand rapidly formed arrays in the air. Although he only had one arm, there were images of more than one thousand hands in the air and they quickly carved out a fifth rank teleportation formation. Then, he shot it to Feng Feiyun’s head.
The forming speed and rank of this formation was countless times better than Feng Feiyun’s.
Not to mention that although this spatial formation could only traverse a short distance, there were no more than three people in the entire Jin Dynasty that were capable of carving such an array.
“Xshh!” Spatial fluctuations started to form and a brilliant white light appeared. One second later, Feng Feiyun appeared outside of the wooden house ten meters behind Sha Hangyun.
Even though Sha Hangyun was trying to break the formation, he still felt the spatial change right behind him so he unleashed a black mist as fast as lightning towards Feng Feiyun's chest.
Although this was just a casual blow, it was equal to an attack from a Giant — extremely powerful and unstoppable.
Feng Feiyun first joined together with Mao Wugui once more. A divine turtle armor covered his body like a steel jade plating and it blocked this attack. “Boom!”
A hole with a ten meter radius was formed on the ground. Inside the dark space, soil was eroding by the dense black mist.
“Sha Hangyun, do you know who you just killed?” Zuo Qianshou thought that Feng Feiyun had died in the hands of Sha Hangyun, so he rushed out from the wooden house. He drew a divine cloud compass with a ten meter diameter that resembled a giant mirror to stop the attacks that were approaching Feng Feiyun.
“I have never cared about the consequences when I kill people!” Sha Hangyun’s body that was covered in a black mist became larger and larger. It became even more frightening, so frightening that one could faintly see the black feathers inside.
An Abnormality naturally was not a human; his human body was shaped by a great technique. His real body was hundreds of meters high like a terrifying mountain.
Zuo Qianshou and Feng Dugu had a great relationship; he didn’t expect Feng Dugu’s disciple to die right in front of him, and it made him very guilty.
However, Sha Hangyun was no longer like what he was before. His cultivation was countless times stronger than two hundred years ago. It might have caught up to Feng Dugu’s cultivation so, naturally, there was no need for him to be afraid of Feng Dugu.

“Where are you escaping to!” Sha Hangyun noticed the weirdness of Feng Feiyun and felt a familiar aura on his body, so he instinctively felt that he could not let him escape.
A black tornado swept by. Sha Hangyun’s humanoid body suddenly turned ten meters taller like a black giant and reached out for Feng Feiyun with one hand. “Boom!”
Zuo Qianshou carved out eighteen formations in a row and activated them together to break Sha Hangyun’s world-shattering attack, then he coldly said: “Sha Hangyun, you are not worthy of being a Yang World’s Supreme. You actually made a move against a junior like this, have you no shame?”
“Killing is never a shameful thing!”
Sha Hangyun unleashed a fist with all of his strength. Fire and thunder shot out and it knocked Zuo Qianshou flying away, leaving him with a wound as blood was flowing out nonstop.
Faster! Faster! Faster! Feng Feiyun constantly shouted in his mind. He didn’t understand why Sha Hangyun turned mad and abandoned Zuo Qianshou to crazily kill him.
Even though he was as fast as the wind and evasive like a ghost, the black clouds still rolled down on him from above as a giant scaled claw slowly loomed over his head.
Although it seemed slow, but in a flash, the claw was already next to him as if it wanted to crush him into pieces. “Whoosh!”
Before the wind reached his body, Feng Feiyun already felt his bones and muscles being squeezed by the pressure; he had no choice but to unleash his corpse fire.
A green corpse fire immediately eroded Sha Hangyun’s claw.
“Second Dark Hell Flame?” Sha Hangyun’s claw was wounded so he quickly pulled back and let out a scream.
Feng Feiyun’s body was soaked in sweat and he didn’t have time to think. He rapidly ran forward. If only he could escape Fire Beacon City, then even Sha Hangyun would have a difficult time killing him.
“Boom!” After escaping for three extra seconds, the black clouds began to follow him once more.

Xiao Nuolan had a peach flower in her hand; the flower still had some dew with spirit energy circulating on it.
She seemed to be enjoying the flowers, but she had already entrapped Feng Feiyun’s escape path.
Feng Feiyun quickly stopped and cursed his unlucky day. He actually encountered two ferocious people, one even more dangerous than the other. Could today really be his fateful end?

He remembered that it was no ordinary wind, but that it contained some type of power.\nMeng Hao thought for a long time, all the way until it was dark outside. A bright light began to shine in his eyes, as well as resolve.\n“Regardless of whether this person’s words are true or false… I’m going!” Determination gleamed in his eyes. Great reward only comes by taking risks. Cultivators cultivate self-confidence! When a decision has been made, it must be pursued with determination, and without the slightest thought of wavering!\nHe flicked his right sleeve as he walked out of the Immortal’s cave.\nSeveral days later, the sixth group of Cultivators left the Violet Fate Sect. It consisted of thirty people, who transformed into thirty prismatic beams that shot off into the air. In front of this group was none other than Meng Hao.\nHe wore the robe of a Violet Furnace Lord, and his long hair whipped about behind him as he shot forward. All of the people behind him looked at him with expressions of veneration, regardless of whether they were from Violet Qi Division or the East Pill Division.\nMeng Hao was quiet during the entire trip. He didn’t speak; within his mind spun the echoing beckons of the Immortal’s corpse.\nThis sixth group of Violet Fate Sect Cultivators teleported three times and spent half a month before arriving in the vicinity of the Rebirth Cave. Once more during that time period, the vibration echoed out.\nWhen the vibration hit them, everyone dropped to the ground, where they sat cross-legged. Only Meng Hao floated in mid-air, looking off into the distance. Once again, he felt the beckoning.\n“Come to me…. I’m here… waiting for you…. All the truth… all the answers….”\nMeng Hao’s mind spun. Of the hundreds of thousands of Cultivators in the region of the Rebirth Cave, the voice within the beckons could only be heard by Meng Hao. His eyes glittered even more relentlessly than before.\nThere are three Danger Zones in the Southern Domain: the Primordial Dao Lakes, the Ancient Temple of Doom and finally, the Rebirth Cave. At a glance, it looked like an enormous depression in the ground. Multitudinous volcanoes could be seen in the area, so many that they were impossible to count. They seemed to never end.\nWhat was visible was the black sky, and the thick black fog that covered everything.\nThis was the region of the Rebirth Cave.\nAccording to the legends, people who were nearing death could enter the Rebirth Cave at the right moment, and if they succeeded, could get a chance to live another life!\nWhether this was true or false, since ancient times, many, many almighty Cultivators, unwilling to pass into death, had entered the Rebirth Cave. Throughout the countless years, only three people had ever emerged successfully.\nWithout exception, after leaving the Rebirth Cave, those three people never once talked about what had happened inside. Eventually, they had disappeared, never to be heard from again.\nDespite that, the legends regarding the mysteries of the Rebirth Cave continued to grow more and more exaggerated. Regardless of anything, stories about the Rebirth Cave had been circulating for tens of thousands of years, which was sufficient to show that… it had some astonishing properties.\nMeng Hao understood that by proceeding forward, he would be entering the region of the Rebirth Cave. Upon entering, the level of danger would be extreme.\nAs for the Immortal’s corpse, it had fallen directly in front of the Rebirth Cave, no more than fifty kilometers away.\nCurrently, the vibrations were slowly fading away. As they did, one figure after another shot up from the ground into the air.\nCurrently, hundreds of thousands of Cultivators from all over the Southern Domain were gathered in a thousand kilometer radius of the Rebirth Cave, forming a perimeter around it. In this area, the Cultivators had established temporary strongholds representing the various Sects and Clans.\nEvery stronghold contained members of the elder generation of the various Sects. It seemed that every day, more people from a variety of Sects entered this huge region. Many would face the danger and approach the corpse, hoping to seize some good fortune. Some came back, some never did.\nBecause of the accumulation of so many hundreds of thousands of Cultivators, it was impossible to avoid the eruption of various feuds. Therefore, magical battle was not uncommon, and every day at least a few people were killed.\nAs for the great Sects and Clans, they were under the protection of the elder generation; there was a bit of chaos, but it was kept under relative control.\nAfter the shaking vibration faded away, Meng Hao led the group of dozens of Violet Fate Sect Cultivators into the area. This of course attracted quite a bit of attention, and many people looked over to see what was happening.\nWhen they saw Meng Hao, and recognized his Violet Furnace Lord’s robe, a great buzz of discussion rose up.\n“That’s the Dao Child of the East Pill Division, Fang Mu!”\nMeng Hao heard some of these words, but his expression was always the same as ever. He continued onward, leading his group further inward toward the area near the Rebirth Cave.\nAs they flew along, he scanned the area with Spiritual Sense. He could immediately sense a vast amount of Cultivators there. There weren’t as many as outside the inner perimeter, perhaps only around ten thousand.\nCompared to the area outside, inside the perimeter, the fog was denser, thicker, exerting pressure on Spiritual Sense and making it more difficult to hear and see.\nEventually, Meng Hao caught sight of an enormous basin. Hovering in mid-air above the basin was a roiling black fog that rose up high into the sky.\nBeneath the fog, the basin had a perimeter of about 500 kilometers. It was enormous, and within that enormity, was the Southern Domain’s mysterious Rebirth Cave.\nThis was the nucleus of the Rebirth Cave. Surrounding this nucleus were a dozen or so pillars of light which rose up into the sky. Each and every pillar undulated shockingly, making it impossible for anyone to not notice them.\nThey embodied shocking power; the existence of these more than ten pillars of light made the huge area surrounding the Rebirth Cave seem a bit less dangerous.\nMany of the strange creatures that lived in the area hid away, and would not emerge to harm people.\nEach one among the dozen or so pillars of light was fixed at a stationary point. There, large groups of Cultivators sat cross-legged, meditating. Only the five great Sects and three great Clans were capable of creating strongholds like this near the nucleus of the Rebirth Cave region.\nAs Meng Hao approached, he immediately caught sight of one of the pillars of light that was violet-colored, and emanated an oppressive, pressure-filled energy. Because of this violet pillar of light, not a scrap of black fog could be seen anywhere nearby. Even the ground was a violet color because of it.\nWu Dingqiu [1] was there inside, as well as Chu Yuyan, An Zaihai, Lin Hailong, and the other Cultivators from the Violet Qi Division. There were roughly a hundred people, all sitting cross-legged, eyes closed in meditation.\nIncluded in the number were two old people, meditating cross-legged in the very center of the glowing pillar. They wore long, white robes, and their countenances were ancient. Meng Hao could sense a fearsome pressure contained within their bodies.\nWu Dingqiu was obviously much weaker than these two old people, by about an entire stage!\n“Spirit Severing stage….” Meng Hao took a deep breath. As he continued toward them, his eyes flickered about, glancing toward the other pillars of light. He saw the Solitary Sword Sect, the Black Sieve Sect, the Golden Frost Sect, the Blood Demon Sect, as well as Cultivators from the three great Clans including Han Bei, Chen Fan, Zhou Jie, Wang Lihai, Li Daoyi and others. [2. Okay here’s a quick refresher. Han Bei, sexy schemer. Chen Fan, protective talkative brother. Zhou Jie, possessed Dao Child. Wang Lihai, brother of Wang Tengfei. Li Daoyi, fought Meng Hao in the Blood Immortal Legacy]. Meng Hao’s gaze finally came to fall upon a white-robed woman in the Black Sieve Sect group.\nXu Qing.\nHe stared at her for a moment and then looked away. There were other pillars of light. One was orange-colored, and filled with an air of potency and dignity. Sitting cross-legged within were a few dozen Cultivators upon whose skin were tattooed depictions of various totems. They were tall, and did not look like people from the Southern Domain.\n“Western Desert Cultivators….” thought Meng Hao, his eyes narrowing. This wasn’t his first time seeing Cultivators from the Western Desert. The first time he’d arrived in the center of the Southern Domain, he’d seen these strange, tall Cultivators.\nMeng Hao also knew that the actual name of the Western Desert was the Barbarian West. In fact, that was the name that was written on the map he’d seen years ago. However, the people from the Western Desert felt that the word Barbarian was too belittling, and therefore took up the name Western Desert. At one time that had corresponded with the original name of the Northern Reaches, which had long ago been called the Northern Desert. Despite this, there were still people who called them Western Devils.\nJi!\nWhen he saw it, Meng Hao’s pupils constricted, and he began to breathe heavily. There were over ten Cultivators sitting beneath the pillar of light, meditating. One of them was a young man with thin lips, a lofty air, and impatience written on his face. He seemed to have sensed Meng Hao’s gaze. He turned and looked over, then gave a cold snort. Contempt flickered within his eyes.\nThe cold snort immediately entered Meng Hao’s mind, causing him to pause momentarily. He quickly rotated his Cultivation base to disperse the uneasy feeling.\n“Core Formation stage.” His expression was the same as usual as he looked away. The young man’s eyes flashed as he examined Meng Hao for a moment, and then ignored him.\nMeng Hao next looked at the other beam of light, which was a greenish color and emanated terrifying power. The Black Sieve Sect’s pillar was also greenish, but this color was different, deeper.\nBeneath the green pillar, three people sat cross-legged. One was a middle-aged woman, another was an old person, and the third was young woman. The young woman wore a green robe, and her long hair cascaded down over her shoulders. She was rather beautiful, but she also possessed a cold, proud air. She seemed to be the kind of person that had a short temper, and wasn’t easy to approach.\nAs he looked over everyone, Meng Hao stayed calm and collected. He led his group directly toward the Violet Fate Sect’s violet pillar of light, and as he neared, quite a few people opened their eyes vigilantly. When they saw Meng Hao, expressions of respect filled their faces.\nAs for Chu Yuyan, a complicated look appeared in her eyes. Ye Feimu simply lowered his head silently.\nOkay here’s a quick refresher. Han Bei, sexy schemer. Chen Fan, protective talkative brother. Zhou Jie, possessed Dao Child.

第296章 又见……季！
这印记，仿佛一个符文，不是存在于皮肤上，而是在血肉里，孟浩不陌生，他当年筑基的一刹那，就亲眼看到过这印记。
如今，是第二次出现！
望着手背的印记，孟浩心神轰鸣。
直至过去了许久，天地间的震动才消失，这弥漫了大半个南域的奇异之幕，立刻使得仙人尸体，更加被人关注瞩目。
孟浩站在洞府内，半晌之后他缓缓抬头，眼中露出了一抹锋利之芒。
此印，是当年我看到了对方后，被对方无形烙印，还是原本就属于我，在我的身体内血脉中，本来就有。”
孟浩沉默，他想到了父母失踪的那天夜里，外面挂着的紫色的风。 那风，仿佛从孟浩的记忆里出现，回旋在他了他的身边，此刻回忆，这风显然不是寻常，而是蕴含了*力。
孟浩沉默了很久，直至外面的天地一片漆黑时，他的双眼刹那露出了精芒，更有一抹果断。
“不管此人说的是真是假，此地……我去了！” 孟浩目中坚定，富贵险中求，修士所修，无非是一个自信，既已有了决断，就要坚定的走下去，不可信念动摇！
他右手抬起衣袖一甩，直接走出了洞府。
数日后，紫运宗第六波修士，一共三十多人，化作三十多道长虹，呼啸间直奔远处天空，在这三十多人的前方，正是孟浩。
无论是紫气一脉还是丹东一脉，都神色带着恭敬。 一行人速度之快。 刹那远去。
一路孟浩沉默，没有话语，他的脑海浮现的，还是来自仙人尸体召唤时，传出的声音。
这紫运宗的第六波修士，在经历了三次传送，于半个月后。 出现在了往生洞的范围外时，又一次的天地震动，再次轰隆隆的传出。
在这震动中，所有人都落下大地。 盘膝打坐，唯独孟浩站在半空，遥望远处时，他再次感受到了那股召唤之意。
孟浩脑海嗡鸣。
召唤之意蕴含的声音，如今这往生洞八方数十万修士，唯有他一人可以听闻，此刻沉默时，他的双眼精芒更为凌厉。
南域三大险地。 上古道湖，太厄古庙，再就是这往生洞，放眼看去，此地是一片坑洼的区域，有众多的火山口，远远一望，火山一时数不清晰，似这里没有尽头。
只能看到很远的地方，天空是黑色的，那是浓浓的黑雾，遮盖了八方。
这里，就是往生洞的范围。
传说中，将死之人踏入往生洞，寻找往生的契机，若能成功，则可往生再活一生！
不管此事是否真实，但古往今来，有太多太多的大能修士，在临死之前不甘心，踏入往生洞，可无数岁月，一共只有三个人，成功的走出此洞。
可毫无例外，这三人从离开往生洞后，绝口不提洞内的经历，直至他们消失在了这片天地，也始终没有说出一言半语。
可越是这样，往生洞的神秘就越是被传的夸张起来，可无论如何，能被传开数万年之久，也足以说明，此洞……有其惊人之处。
孟浩明白，从此地向前，就属于是往生洞范围之内，一旦踏入，极为危险。
而那仙人的尸体，则是掉落在前方，距离往生主洞，不到百里的距离。
片刻后，天地的震动渐渐消散时，一道道身影从大地内飞起。
此刻在这里，环绕往生洞万里外的范围，凝聚了整个南域数十万修士，这些修士按照不同宗门，于四周设立了不少临时的据点。
每一处据点，都有宗门老辈人物存在，几乎每天都有不同宗门之人冲入万里内，冒险前去尸体旁，去寻找造化，有的人回来了，有的去了后，再也没有归来。
更是因为此地凝聚了南域数十万修士，一些有仇隙之人，也在此地时常斗法，几乎每天都有不少人死亡。
好在各大宗门都有长辈驻守，也就使得即便是有些混乱，可也在能被控制的范围之内。
此刻随着震动之声的消失，孟浩向前飞去，他身后紫运宗的数十人，化作一道道长虹跟随，众人一路直冲，引起了四周不少人的关注，纷纷看去。
当目光落在孟浩身上时，立刻有人认出了紫炉衣袍，在一看孟浩，顿时传出嗡鸣议论。
“是紫运宗的方木！”
这些议论之声，有些落入孟浩耳中，孟浩神色如常，依旧前行，带着身后众人刹那就踏入到了往生洞万里之内。
一路呼啸而过，孟浩灵识散开，立刻看到在这往生洞万里内，存在了不少的修士，尽管没有外围多，可也有万人。
此地与外界比较，存在了雾气，这些黑雾越是向深处前行就越是浓密，且对灵识有压制，使人如耳目失聪。
不多时，孟浩隐隐的看到，在远处有一处巨大的盆地，在那盆地的半空，则是一片滔天的黑雾。
雾气下的这处盆地，方圆足有千里，庞大无比，那里，就是南域神秘的往生主洞。
此地已接近了往生洞的核心，环绕这核心盆地的四周，有十几道光柱冲天而起，长久存在屹立八方，每一道光柱都有惊人的波动扩散，使得外人距离很远也都可以看到。
更是蕴含了阵阵威慑，也正是因这十几道光柱的存在，才使得这平日里充满了危险的往生洞万里范围，变的不再是步步危机。
很多往生洞范围内的奇异生命，也都隐藏起来，轻易不会外出伤人。
可以看到，那十几道光柱，每一道都是一个驻点，其内有不少修士盘膝打坐，能在这往生洞靠近核心之处，开辟出这样的据点，在南域，唯有五宗三族可以做到。
孟浩随着临近，一眼就看到了这些光柱内，有一道紫色的光柱散发逼人气势，充满了威压，扩散四周，使得紫色光柱所在的区域，没有丝毫黑雾存在，地面都成为了紫色。
吴定秋赫然在内，还有叶非目，楚玉嫣以及安在海、林海隆，再就是紫气一脉的修士，约莫上百人，正盘膝坐在光柱内，闭目打坐。
这些人里，有两个老者，打坐的位置是那光柱的正中心，这二老穿着白色的长袍，容颜沧桑，可在他们身上，孟浩却感受到了一股恐怖的压抑。
就连吴丁秋，与这二老比较，都明显不如，仿佛差了一个境界！
“斩灵……”孟浩深吸口气，前行时目光移开，看向其他几道光柱，他看到了一剑宗、青罗宗、金寒宗、血妖宗，还有三大家族之修，其中韩贝、陈凡、周杰、王厉海、李道一等人，都被孟浩一一看到，直至他的目光，落在了青罗宗内，一个穿着白色衣衫的女子。
许清。
孟浩凝望片刻，收回目光后，又看向其他光柱，其中有一道光柱，颜色橘黄，充满了一股霸道威严之意，其内的盘膝坐着数十个修士，每一个露出的皮肤上，都有一些图腾刻画，他们身体高大，一看就不是南域之人。
“西漠之修……”孟浩双眼眯起，他不是第一次看到西漠的修士，当年他第一次踏入南域核心时，就看到过这些高大的奇异修士。
孟浩也知道，西漠实际上是叫做西蛮，这是他当年在地图上看到的称呼，只不过西漠之人觉得蛮字有贬低之意，故而自称西漠，与北漠对应，不过也有人将他们成为西魔。
季！
在看到这个字的刹那，孟浩双目蓦然收缩，呼吸微微急促了一下，在那光柱下，有十多个修士盘膝打坐，其中一人是个青年，双唇略薄，一脸傲然，神色中带着不耐，似察觉到孟浩这里的目光，转头一眼看来，冷哼一声，目中闪过轻蔑。
这一声冷哼，刹那就落在孟浩心神，让孟浩脚步一顿，但体内修为一运转，就将这不适消散。
“结丹境。” 孟浩神色如常，收回目光，那青年双目一闪，仔细的看了孟浩一眼，便不再理会。
孟浩的目光最后落在了一道青色的光柱上，不同于青罗宗的青色光柱，此青更深，屹立在那里，威慑四周。
青光下，盘膝坐着三人，一个中年女子，一个老者，还有一个则是妙龄女子，这女子穿着一身青色的长衫，一头秀发披肩，相貌颇为美丽，可却隐隐给人感觉，一股冷傲之意，似不好接触，脾气不小。
目光扫过四周，孟浩不动声色，带着身后众人，直奔紫运宗所在的紫色光柱而来，刚一临近，立刻就有不少人双眼蓦然睁开，警惕的看来，在看到了孟浩后，立刻有一些露出恭敬。
楚玉嫣神色有些复杂，远处的叶非目低下头，没有说话。
最后30个小时，兄弟姐妹，请把最后的月票，给封天吧，过了这30个小时，本月月票就作废了啊，求清仓，求月票！ 6月只有30个小时就过去了，请大家看看是否还有月票，请把月票投给封天吧。 明天爆发！

Chapter 296: Another Encounter with Ji!
The mark looked like a magical symbol. It didn’t exist on top of his skin, but rather inside his flesh. Meng Hao was not unfamiliar with it; the moment he had reached Foundation Establishment, he had seen this exact same mark.
Today was the second time!
Meng Hao looked at the mark, his mind buzzing.
After a long time, the shaking disappeared. The strange sign which had filled half of the Southern Domain caused even more attention to be drawn to the Immortal’s corpse.
Meng Hao stood there within his Immortal’s cave for a long time before he lifted his head. His eyes were now filled with a sharp light.
“Just… who is he? Why was I able to see him that year? Why did he fall into the Southern Domain? And why is he able to affect my blood flow, and give rise to this mark…. Was the mark placed upon me by him that year? Or was it part of me all along, there within my flesh from the beginning?” Meng Hao silently thought about the night his father and mother went missing, and the violet wind which had blown outside.
If Meng Hao remembered correctly, when that wind arose, it had swirled around his body. He remembered that it was no ordinary wind, but that it contained some type of power.
Meng Hao thought for a long time, all the way until it was dark outside. A bright light began to shine in his eyes, as well as resolve.

When a decision has been made, it must be pursued with determination, and without the slightest thought of wavering!
He flicked his right sleeve as he walked out of the Immortal’s cave.
Several days later, the sixth group of Cultivators left the Violet Fate Sect. It consisted of thirty people, who transformed into thirty prismatic beams that shot off into the air. In front of this group was none other than Meng Hao.
He wore the robe of a Violet Furnace Lord, and his long hair whipped about behind him as he shot forward. All of the people behind him looked at him with expressions of veneration, regardless of whether they were from Violet Qi Division or the East Pill Division.
Meng Hao was quiet during the entire trip. He didn’t speak; within his mind spun the echoing beckons of the Immortal’s corpse.
This sixth group of Violet Fate Sect Cultivators teleported three times and spent half a month before arriving in the vicinity of the Rebirth Cave. Once more during that time period, the vibration echoed out.
When the vibration hit them, everyone dropped to the ground, where they sat cross-legged. Only Meng Hao floated in mid-air, looking off into the distance. Once again, he felt the beckoning.
“Come to me…. I’m here… waiting for you…. All the truth… all the answers….”
Meng Hao’s mind spun. Of the hundreds of thousands of Cultivators in the region of the Rebirth Cave, the voice within the beckons could only be heard by Meng Hao. His eyes glittered even more relentlessly than before.
There are three Danger Zones in the Southern Domain: the Primordial Dao Lakes, the Ancient Temple of Doom and finally, the Rebirth Cave. At a glance, it looked like an enormous depression in the ground. Multitudinous volcanoes could be seen in the area, so many that they were impossible to count. They seemed to never end.
What was visible was the black sky, and the thick black fog that covered everything.
This was the region of the Rebirth Cave.
According to the legends, people who were nearing death could enter the Rebirth Cave at the right moment, and if they succeeded, could get a chance to live another life!
Whether this was true or false, since ancient times, many, many almighty Cultivators, unwilling to pass into death, had entered the Rebirth Cave. Throughout the countless years, only three people had ever emerged successfully.
Without exception, after leaving the Rebirth Cave, those three people never once talked about what had happened inside. Eventually, they had disappeared, never to be heard from again.
Despite that, the legends regarding the mysteries of the Rebirth Cave continued to grow more and more exaggerated. Regardless of anything, stories about the Rebirth Cave had been circulating for tens of thousands of years, which was sufficient to show that… it had some astonishing properties.
Meng Hao understood that by proceeding forward, he would be entering the region of the Rebirth Cave. Upon entering, the level of danger would be extreme.
As for the Immortal’s corpse, it had fallen directly in front of the Rebirth Cave, no more than fifty kilometers away.
Currently, the vibrations were slowly fading away. As they did, one figure after another shot up from the ground into the air.
Currently, hundreds of thousands of Cultivators from all over the Southern Domain were gathered in a thousand kilometer radius of the Rebirth Cave, forming a perimeter around it. In this area, the Cultivators had established temporary strongholds representing the various Sects and Clans.
Every stronghold contained members of the elder generation of the various Sects. It seemed that every day, more people from a variety of Sects entered this huge region. Many would face the danger and approach the corpse, hoping to seize some good fortune. Some came back, some never did.
Because of the accumulation of so many hundreds of thousands of Cultivators, it was impossible to avoid the eruption of various feuds. Therefore, magical battle was not uncommon, and every day at least a few people were killed.

After the shaking vibration faded away, Meng Hao led the group of dozens of Violet Fate Sect Cultivators into the area. This of course attracted quite a bit of attention, and many people looked over to see what was happening.
When they saw Meng Hao, and recognized his Violet Furnace Lord’s robe, a great buzz of discussion rose up.
“That’s the Dao Child of the East Pill Division, Fang Mu!”
Meng Hao heard some of these words, but his expression was always the same as ever. He continued onward, leading his group further inward toward the area near the Rebirth Cave.
As they flew along, he scanned the area with Spiritual Sense. He could immediately sense a vast amount of Cultivators there. There weren’t as many as outside the inner perimeter, perhaps only around ten thousand.
Compared to the area outside, inside the perimeter, the fog was denser, thicker, exerting pressure on Spiritual Sense and making it more difficult to hear and see.

He saw the Solitary Sword Sect, the Black Sieve Sect, the Golden Frost Sect, the Blood Demon Sect, as well as Cultivators from the three great Clans including Han Bei, Chen Fan, Zhou Jie, Wang Lihai, Li Daoyi and others. [2. Okay here’s a quick refresher. Han Bei, sexy schemer. Chen Fan, protective talkative brother. Zhou Jie, possessed Dao Child. Wang Lihai, brother of Wang Tengfei. Li Daoyi, fought Meng Hao in the Blood Immortal Legacy]. Meng Hao’s gaze finally came to fall upon a white-robed woman in the Black Sieve Sect group.
Xu Qing.
He stared at her for a moment and then looked away. There were other pillars of light. One was orange-colored, and filled with an air of potency and dignity. Sitting cross-legged within were a few dozen Cultivators upon whose skin were tattooed depictions of various totems. They were tall, and did not look like people from the Southern Domain.

"value": "Chapter 500 - The Mystery of the Labyrinth\nDumby jumped down from the head of the Black Flame Stone Python. The blooming Bone Lotus was spreading everywhere in the air. Dumby gently picked up Xiao Hua from Goldie’s back and took the oranges. It carefully peeled the oranges and gave them to its daughter.\nGoldie lingered around behind Dumby. After thinking, it said in a low voice, “Brother Dumby, what you did just now was amazing! I really want to learn.”\nDumby nonchalantly smiled and said, “All right. Just come to me whenever you want to learn.”\n“Get over it, Baldie. You won’t be able to learn that,” Flamy said scornfully. They had known Dumby for a long time, which was why they talked so freely.\nGoldie shook its head, its expression full of determination. “With hard work, a determined duck shall prevail. If I work hard enough, I will definitely learn it. Even if I fail to accomplish 100 percent of what Brother Dumby is capable of, 70 to 80 percent of it will be enough for me to survive in the Black Fog World.”\nFlamy rolled its eyes after hearing its words. Talk is cheap. You’re just talking like a punk. I wonder what kind of fool would fall in love with a bald goon like you.\nGao Peng went back to the Desolate Labyrinth to tell his insider about slaying the Emperor-tier monster so that he could tell it to Gao Peng’s grandfather. That way, the Southern Sky Group would gain an enormous advantage during the development of the business route.\nGao Peng brought along almost every single one of his familiars when he left the labyrinth. He even brought along Stripey, which was slow because of its large size.\nThat was the first time that Stripey came to the Black Fog World. Stripey wasn’t used to the scenery there, but it was very happy. “So, this is the Black Fog World that Master often visits.”\n“Master, which way should we go? To the north? Or to the south?” Desolion asked.\nGao Peng was thinking. To the north was the Black Phoenix Mountain Range, where there was an Emperor-tier monster. There was no use for them to go to the Black Phoenix Mountain Range if they couldn’t defeat that Emperor-tier monster.\nDumby had leveled up to the Emperor tier. Unlike when it was still at the King tier, it was one tier away from the Overlord tier now. Similar to how a tiger had its own territory and would only allow prey like rabbits and chickens to live in it, there wouldn’t be any room for fierce beasts like bears and wolves in its area.\nTo the west was the Lukasa base city, while even further from the west was fully covered by the black fog. Gao Peng didn’t intend to challenge the mysteries of this world.\nTo the east was the ocean, where many islands sat. Gao Peng had no familiars that could effectively fight in the water, so he was out of options.\nAfter careful consideration, Gao Peng decided to head south. He had also heard that there were many labyrinths in the south, and most of the strong monsters in the southern region were in those labyrinths.\nAfter putting the Black Flame Stone Python carcass into Dumby’s space, Gao Peng began his long journey on Stripey’s back. Gao Peng didn’t know how long that journey would take. Hence, he had made enough preparations and stored an enormous amount of seasonings and daily necessities. He hadn’t brought any food, as the python would be enough to fill them up for quite some time.\nThe Desolate Frost Lion could deposit the air’s water vapor into ice, then Flamy could melt the ice into water. They could make naturally distilled water.\nIn their six mile walk towards the south, the flatland along the way was extremely barren. There was rarely any sign of monster activities in the barren land. The malnourished yellowish green grass was rooted in the soil stubbornly. Goldie was bored and had tried to pick up a few of the weeds on the way.\nThree-feet-high plants like Sword Grass had their roots in the soil for almost 26 feet. Their roots were as thick as a thumb and had tiny pores all over them, which indicated their extreme thirst for water.\nAfter continuing their walk towards the south for over 18 miles, Gao Peng finally encountered some monsters. They were red monsters that had human-like bodies and the heads of animals. With their backs hunched like bows, they looked a little bit like Jackal Wolfmen. Their red hair was long, and their dark green eyes kept scanning around.\nOne of the Jackal Wolfmen seemed to be hungry. It crouched, seemingly searching for something on the ground. Then it pulled up the grass on the ground along with its roots, rolling it all together to put it into its mouth. The mud on them didn’t seem to taste too good, as the Jackal’s face scrunched together.\nJust as Gao Peng noticed them, they also immediately discovered Gao Peng and his crew on the empty plains. With no hesitation, the Jackal Wolfmen instantly started to swiftly spread in different directions.\nOver thirty Jackal Wolfmen fled as they separated in dozens of groups. Gao Peng stopped Goldie, who was trying to chase them with a loud shout. They were just Excellent-grade garbage. They didn’t deserve any attention.\nAlong the way, Gao Peng also encountered monsters like Grassland Gray Cloud Wolves, Withered Golden Eagles, and Bloodthirsty Minotaurs. These monsters mostly lived in groups. Gao Peng could seldom find monsters who were by themselves, since basically all of them lived in social groups.\nAnd most of the monsters who were low-level… ate grass. Gao Peng had witnessed a wolf eating grass, and he had also witnessed a lion-like monster eating grass. He had even seen an eagle monster with the head of a lion fly down from the sky to put turf into its mouth.\nIn order to survive, they had all evolved into omnivores. Perhaps it was because they ate grass, but Gao Peng was surprised to discover that their meat tasted quite good.\n“Gao Peng, we’ve already walked for more than 1,200 miles.” Desolion licked its paw.\n“Be patient. We should see something soon. The Black Lightning Eagle Skeleton has been scouting in front of us for days now. We’ll know where the nearby labyrinths are when it comes back,” Gao Peng tried to comfort Desolion.\nAt night, the sky of the Black Fog World was blue. The blue dark sky was gloomy with two clear moons hung high in the sky. The two light yellow moons hovered in the sky of the entire Black Fog World, like two bright eyes dangling in the sky.\nA black figure flying in the sky continued to approach Gao Peng. Finally, it landed in front of Gao Peng. With his head slightly slanted, he reported to Dumby.\nAfter a short while, Dumby turned its head and said to Gao Peng, “Master, there are three labyrinths in front of us. Two of them were made of stone. Another one is a red labyrinth with a shining wall.”\n“A special labyrinth—?” Gao Peng was a little interested.\n“I don’t recommend us going to the special labyrinth right now. The monsters within the special labyrinth are very strong,” the Desolate Frost Lion interrupted them.\n“To be honest, why would you suggest we come to the southern labyrinths?” Gao Peng looked at the Desolate Frost Lion curiously. Although the Desolate Frost Lion hadn’t said it out loud as it explained the situation in the Black Fog World that day, between the lines, Desolion had been suggesting Gao Peng and the rest head south.\nThe Desolate Frost Lion smiled scornfully. “Are you implying something?”\n“You know it deep down in your heart. And I’m very curious why so many of these monsters like to fight for these labyrinths. Are you out of your mind?”\n“I’m not out of my mind. I wouldn’t do anything that has no benefit for me. The main reason is that our growth rates are sped up in the labyrinth. For example, if I need 100 years to become an adult lion, it’ll only take 50 years if I stay in the labyrinth.\n“Also, some of these labyrinths naturally generate substances that aid our growth. It would be extremely advantageous for the awakening and purifying of our bloodlines,” continued the Desolate Frost Lion."

第五百章
阿呆从黑炎石蟒头顶跳下来，盛开的骨莲花消散在空气中，从小黄背上抱过小花，又接过橘子，小心翼翼的给女儿剥橘子吃。
小黄踌躇的跟在阿呆身后，想了很久，然后低声说道：“呆哥，你刚才那招好帅啊，我...我想学。”
阿呆毫不在意的笑道：“好啊，什么时候想学都可以来找我。”
小焱在一旁开口嘲讽。 它们和阿呆认识的时间都挺久的，所以它们和阿呆说话也没有那么拘束。
小黄摇头，神色坚毅，“功夫不费有心鸭，只要我努力，肯定会有收获的，就算学不了呆哥的十成本事，学个七八成也够我小黄在黑雾世界混了。”
小焱闻言翻了个白眼，一天到晚就知道说些社会话，像只流氓鸭一样，也不知道会有哪个傻子会喜欢这种又呆又楞的秃子。
高鹏回了荒芜迷宫一趟将这头皇级怪物被杀死的消息告诉内线，让他告诉外公，到时候在开发商路的时候南天集团可以占据更大的优势。
离开迷宫，这一次高鹏几乎将自己所有御兽都带在身边。 就连以前因为体积太大行动不便的阿斑也跟随在身边。
这是阿斑第一次来到黑雾世界，这里的景色让阿斑有些不太适应。 但它还是很开心，“这就是主人经常来的黑雾世界。”
“主人，我们往哪里走？ 是去北边吗，还是往南边走？”
高鹏思索，往北边走就是黑凤山脉，黑凤山脉里面有一只帝级的怪物，在不能击败那只帝级怪物的情况下自己等人去黑风山峰并没有太大用处。
毕竟阿呆已经晋级皇级，不同于之前还是王级的时候，皇级和帝级只相差一级，就像在老虎的地盘里它可以允许一只兔子、山鸡这些猎物存在，但绝对不会允许熊、野狼这种猛兽生存。
往西边走就是卢卡萨基地市，继续往西走听说那边全是黑雾，高鹏暂时还没有挑战世界之谜这种伟大的想法。
东边是海洋，岛屿众多，高鹏手底下缺乏水战的御兽，因此也排除。
思前想后，高鹏决定往南发展。 而且也是听说南边迷宫很多，南部区域大多厉害的怪物都待在迷宫里了。
将黑炎石蟒的尸体装入阿蠢的空间里，高鹏就待在阿斑背上开始了长途跋涉之旅。 这是一次不知道会持续多久的旅行，高鹏准备充足，在阿蠢的空间里装了大量的调料和必备的生活用品，至于食物这些并未携带，就比如这头黑炎石蟒就够高鹏它们吃很久了。
寒霜寂狮可以在空气中凝聚出冰，然后让小焱将冰融化为水，这就是纯天然的蒸馏水。
往南走了十几公里，沿途平原一直都是极为贫瘠的。 贫瘠的平原上偶尔可以看见一些怪物活动的踪迹。
离地一米高类似于剑茅草一样的植物在土里的根须足足有七八米长，拇指粗的根上长满了密集的小孔，说明它们对水分有极大的渴求。
继续往南走了三十几公里高鹏终于遇见了怪物。 这是一群红色的人形兽头怪物，有点类似于豺狼人，背脊弯成一张弓，红色的毛发披散下来，幽绿的眼珠扫视四周。
其中有豺狼人似乎是饿了，就蹲下来在地上寻找着什么。 然后将地上的草连根拔出，然后将草和根茎揉成一团放入嘴里，上面还有未干的泥巴，似乎味道不是很好，豺狼人五官皱巴巴挤在一起。
就在高鹏注意到它们的时候，在这空旷的平原上它们也紧接着发现了高鹏一行。 没有犹豫，二话不说直接四散而逃。
一共三十几只豺狼人分成十几股小队伍逃走。 高鹏喝止了追上去的小黄，都只是一群精锐级的炮灰而已，不用理会。
沿途高鹏还遇见了草原苍云狼群、枯荣金雕、嗜血牛头怪等怪物，这些怪物大都是群居，高鹏发现很少有落单的怪物，基本上都是群居模式。 而且很多等级不高的怪物都会......吃草。
高鹏曾亲眼看见狼吃草，也看见了类似于狮子模样的怪物吃草，甚至看见了类似于鹰长着狮子脑袋的怪物从天空中飞下来抓着一块草皮就往嘴里放。
为了生存，都不得不进化为杂食种。 或许是因为吃草的原因，高鹏惊喜的发现它们的肉还挺好吃的。
“高鹏，我们已经走了两千多公里了。” 寂狮舔了一下爪子。
“别急，应该有发现，黑电雷鹰骷髅去前面探路好几天了，等它回来后我们就知道附近哪里有迷宫了。” 高鹏安慰道。
入夜，晚上的黑雾世界天是蓝色的，蓝黑色的天空阴沉，两轮明月高挂，在黑雾世界的天上挂着两轮月亮。 暖黄色的月亮仿佛两颗眼睛挂在天上。
一只黑影从天边飞来不断靠近，最后稳稳落在高鹏身前，歪着头对阿呆说复命。
须臾，阿呆转过头对高鹏说道：“主人，在前面有三座迷宫，其中两座迷宫是石头做的迷宫，还有一个是红色的迷宫，墙壁在发光。”
“特殊迷宫？” 高鹏有点感兴趣。
“我不建议我们现在去特殊迷宫，特殊迷宫里面的怪物都很强。” 寒霜寂狮插嘴。
“说实话，当时你为什么要建议我们去南边的迷宫？” 高鹏带着深意的望着寒霜寂狮，那天寒霜寂狮介绍黑雾世界情况的时候虽然什么都没明示，但语气里不无暗示着让高鹏他们往南边走。
寒霜寂狮讪讪一笑，“有暗示吗？”
“你自己心里清楚，而且我也很好奇为什么这么多怪物都喜欢去争夺这些个什么迷宫，失了智？”
“我才没失了智，没好处的事我才不会干嘞，主要原因就是因为在迷宫里我们的成长速度会加快。 比如我想要成年需要一百年，但是待在迷宫里我只需要五十年就可以成年。
而且有些迷宫里面还会自然凝聚出一些有益于我们成长的东西，对觉醒血脉还有提纯血脉都有很大的用处。”

Chapter 500 - The Mystery of the Labyrinth
Dumby jumped down from the head of the Black Flame Stone Python. The blooming Bone Lotus was spreading everywhere in the air. Dumby gently picked up Xiao Hua from Goldie’s back and took the oranges. It carefully peeled the oranges and gave them to its daughter.
Goldie lingered around behind Dumby. After thinking, it said in a low voice, “Brother Dumby, what you did just now was amazing! I really want to learn.”

Even if I fail to accomplish 100 percent of what Brother Dumby is capable of, 70 to 80 percent of it will be enough for me to survive in the Black Fog World.”
Flamy rolled its eyes after hearing its words. Talk is cheap. You’re just talking like a punk. I wonder what kind of fool would fall in love with a bald goon like you.
Gao Peng went back to the Desolate Labyrinth to tell his insider about slaying the Emperor-tier monster so that he could tell it to Gao Peng’s grandfather. That way, the Southern Sky Group would gain an enormous advantage during the development of the business route.
Gao Peng brought along almost every single one of his familiars when he left the labyrinth. He even brought along Stripey, which was slow because of its large size.
That was the first time that Stripey came to the Black Fog World. Stripey wasn’t used to the scenery there, but it was very happy. “So, this is the Black Fog World that Master often visits.”
“Master, which way should we go? To the north? Or to the south?” Desolion asked.
Gao Peng was thinking. To the north was the Black Phoenix Mountain Range, where there was an Emperor-tier monster. There was no use for them to go to the Black Phoenix Mountain Range if they couldn’t defeat that Emperor-tier monster.
Dumby had leveled up to the Emperor tier. Unlike when it was still at the King tier, it was one tier away from the Overlord tier now. Similar to how a tiger had its own territory and would only allow prey like rabbits and chickens to live in it, there wouldn’t be any room for fierce beasts like bears and wolves in its area.

To the east was the ocean, where many islands sat. Gao Peng had no familiars that could effectively fight in the water, so he was out of options.
After careful consideration, Gao Peng decided to head south. He had also heard that there were many labyrinths in the south, and most of the strong monsters in the southern region were in those labyrinths.

I’ve been nothing but satisfied for the past ten days. In fact, you can say I’m quite impressed. What you’ve shown so far has exceeded my expectations.”\n“Correct. The amount of progress in the last ten days is an extremely high achievement in itself. Your control over elemental fire is far beyond what I expected. It would be no exaggeration for me to say that you’re aptitude so far is way better than your seniors when they first started to learn!” “Uh….”\nKou Changkong’s sudden praise of him had knocked Bai Yunfei for a loop. But even in his daze, the feeling of disappointment he felt was quickly thrown out so that joy and a little amount of pride could make their way in.\n“Yunfei, do you know why you are failing to make even an incomplete soul armament?”\n“No, your control was fine. In fact, even if you were making a low-grade human-tier soul armament, you’d have more than enough to spare!”\n“What?” He still didn’t quite understand what Kou Changkong was getting at.\n“The reason why you are failing to craft even a single armament is because you are missing an extremely crucial item!” Kou Changkong smiled.\n“What...what item?” Bai Yunfei asked.\nUnwilling to keep Bai Yunfei in suspense, Kou Changkong waved his right hand just once. Following a bright flash of red and a “thunk”, something fell down by Bai Yunfei’s side.\n“So even the Crafting School has a key ‘item’.....”\nBai Yunfei realized what Kou Changkong was getting at. But at the same time, a question arose in his mind. “Then why didn’t he….”\n“You must be thinking ‘why didn’t I give you a crafting cauldron to begin with?’, correct?”\nNodding his head in an honest reply, Bai Yunfei listened as Kou Changkong speak, “You are a disciple of mine. The more potential you have, the bigger the expectations I’ll have for you. The past ten days were for you to understand just how hard crafting a soul armament is. From today onwards, you’ll be more cautious in your craft while also helping you understand the many questions that might occur. As your master, I must teach in a way that you will learn the subject in a comprehensive matter.”\n“You might not understand what I’ve said so far, so let me teach you one of the many uses of the cauldron. Craft a soul armament with it and you’ll understand what I’m saying then.”\nKou Changkong walked over to where the cauldron was and placed his right hand by his side. Pushing his soulforce into it, the cauldron began to light up before a fire burst into life from the inside.\n“All crafting cauldrons are created using materials that harmonize greatly with fire. Through it, one is able to make and maintain a fire with ease.” Kou Changkong explained. Waving his left hand, a small clump of vermiculite ore was thrown into the cauldron and transformed into a fist-sized glob of pure essence almost instantly.\n“There’s countless of blocks in the cauldron which can be be influenced in any way to change the shape and outcome of the soul armament. Supplementary materials can be placed in these slots as well so that they can be compounded at any time.” Kou Changkong waved his hand to fill up several of the slots. With a crackling sound, a mold of a small dagger was formed at the bottom with the fire engulfing the materials and filled up the dagger mold with its liquid. “While the cauldron provides the mold, you must make sure to maintain the fire as it burns the materials so that the shape and compounding can go without a problem.”\n“During the refinement process, the cauldron can be used to push your soulforce in without deviation.” He paused here for a moment, and at the same time, a wave of soulforce was suddenly pushed out in such a huge drove that Bai Yunfei’s heart was momentarily stunned.

From here, work so that you grow more proficient with the art of crafting and increase the chances of making human-tier soul armaments.” Kou Changkong smiled.\n“Seek out Song Lin tomorrow and have him appoint you a cave of your own in the Western Point.

寇长空却是微笑着摇了摇头，平静道：“云飞，你觉得为师会失望吗？”
“你错了。” 寇长空阻止了白云飞的‘自责’，微笑道，“我要告诉你，你这十天的表现，为师非常满意，甚至可以说，非常惊喜，你的表现，比为师之前期望的，还要好。”
“不错，你能用十天的时间做到如此程度，已经是非常好的成绩了，你对火元力的细微控制，远远超出了为师的预料，毫不夸张的说，你在这一方面甚至比你几个师兄当初初学练器时都要好！”
“呃……”寇长空这突然的高度肯定让白云飞有些反应不过来，不过心中的失落却消散了许多，甚至升起了一丝欣喜和小小的自豪。
“云飞，你可知你为什么连一把最简单的半魂器都无法炼制成功？”
“不，你如今对火元力的控制，莫说半魂器，就算是炼制人阶下品也绰绰有余！”
白云飞有些懵了，不知道寇长空这话是什么意思。
寇长空微微一笑，说道：“你之所以这么难以炼制成功，是因为你少了一样最为重要的东西！”
“什么……什么东西？” 白云飞愣愣地问到。
寇长空不再卖关子，右手在身旁一挥，一道赤红光芒闪烁，‘砰’的一声，一物落在了白云飞身旁。
“就是这个……炼器鼎！”
寇长空的声音继续响起：“这是我炼器宗弟子炼器必备之物，炼器过程中许多细节都要依靠它来完成，一尊好的炼器鼎，甚至能够让魂器的炼制成功率提升数倍。
这是一尊普通大小的炼器鼎，若想炼制枪戟、长斧一类的魂器，则需要另一种长形炼器鼎。 “你是不是在想，那我为何不最开始就让你使用炼器鼎来炼制魂器？”
白云飞老实地点头，寇长空继续道：“你是为师的亲传弟子，起点高度自然要比其他弟子更高，为师对你的要求也更高，之前十天的炼制，是为了先让你明白炼器之难，今后的炼制中才会更加谨慎，而且能够让你发现更多的问题，为师给你一一讲解，也更为全面。”

寇长空走到炼器鼎旁边，右手贴在鼎侧，魂力催动，炼器鼎红芒微闪，一蓬火焰骤然在鼎中凝聚而出。
“炼器鼎本身便是极火材料炼制而成，通过它，能够更轻易的凝聚和控制炼火。” 寇长空讲解的同时，左手一挥，一块足球大小的精矿投入了鼎中，几乎转瞬见变被炼化为了拳头大小的精华。
周围小格可事先放置辅助材料，在最佳时机配入其中。” 寇长空左手再挥，各种辅助材料投入鼎中，同时内能一阵轻微‘咔咔’声响，一个匕首形状的凹槽出现在底部，所有材料在火焰包裹下放进了凹槽之中，形成了匕首形状，“有炼器鼎塑形，但炼火依旧必须凝形包裹，确保器形以及材料配比。” “最后的凝炼，也能通过炼器鼎更精确地控制魂力波动的变化。”
在寇长空说完这短短一句话之时，一阵让白云飞心神缭乱的魂力波动变化已经停止，红芒渐歇，火焰消散，一把暗红色的匕首飞到了寇长空手中。
一柄魂器眨眼间炼成，所用时间甚至比十天前第一次为白云飞演示时更短一半以上！
寇长空等着白云飞领悟了一阵，然后说道：“云飞，你来自己炼制一次！”
白云飞一个深呼吸，微微点头，上前两步，来到了炼器鼎旁边。
按寇长空先前所说那样，手掌贴在鼎侧，魂力催动，炙热的火焰再次在鼎中凝聚。
投入精矿石、辅助材料，熔析、配塑、凝练……一步一步走下来，白云飞竟然觉得——无比顺畅！
直到火焰消散，一把寒光微闪的银色飞刀静静地躺在炼器鼎中，白云飞却对着炼器鼎好一阵发呆。
当这件魂器练成之后，他居然感觉到……简单？
不错，若是和之前十天的炼制相比，刚才这短短数十分钟的炼制，可以说是简单非常，轻而易举！
愣了片刻之后，白云飞怀着无比激动的心情将这一把银白色的飞刀拿了起来，造型普通，三寸长短，只一指宽，是那飞刀残谱中记载的最简单普通的飞刀。
“装备品级：精品。”
“攻击力：181。”
“强化条件：50魂点。”
虽然只是半魂器，但已经很接近魂器的程度了，白云飞轻轻抚摸着小巧的刀身，眼中闪烁着兴奋的光芒。
寇长空满意地微微点头，说道：“很好，云飞，记住刚才的那种感觉，炼器之术……就是如此！”
白云飞收起飞刀，恭敬地应道：“是，师父！”
寇长空微笑道：“时间不早了，就这样吧，今天你就不要再炼制了，保持这个状态，以刚才那一次炼器为主，结合这些日子所学，仔细总结每一个细节，以你如今的能力，当你下一次再动手炼制时，将会有很大的进步，即便炼制人阶中品魂器，也一样并不困难！”
寇长空却是轻轻摇头道：“不，从明天开始，你就不用再来这里了。”
“嗯？”
“现阶段的你需要掌握的，为师都已经教给你了。 你接下来要做的，便是在不断地炼制中熟悉炼器之术，提高炼制人阶魂器的成功率。”
寇长空笑道，“明天你去找松霖，让他在西峰之上给你安排一处炼器洞，你以后便在那里炼器，为师每隔十天检查一次你的修炼进度，若期间碰到什么问题，可以请教你大师兄，也可以直接来找为师。”
其实，寇长空身为炼器宗宗主，能够用整整十天时间毫不间断地亲自单独指导白云飞炼器之术，已经足见他对白云飞的重视程度了。
白云飞略微思考，便也想通了这一点，恭敬道：“弟子知道了，多谢师父的悉心教导，弟子一定全心修炼，绝不辜负师父对我的期望！” “嗯，为师相信你，但炼器一途并非拼命便能快速的，你切不可太过急进。”
寇长空拿出一枚灰色戒指，递给白云飞，继续道，“这空间戒指中有一批炼器材料，应该足够你练习一段时间了。
里面还有一个卷轴，载着炼器之术的详细之法，包括一些常见的材料配比、炼器手法等各种细节，还有为师整理的一些炼器心得，你现在拿去查阅，理解起来应该不会觉得困难。 还有这炼器鼎你也收起来吧，以你如今的实力，它最适合你使用。”

第二章
怀疑！
那宽大的营帐之中，张铁和几个头发胡子都花白的老者面对面大眼瞪小眼的互相瞪了两分钟，谁都没有说话。
此刻的张铁感觉自己就像是一件珍奇的东西，那几个老者的目光，简直就像是渗透到骨髓之中的水银一样，让张铁慢慢的有一种浑身**的感觉。
几分钟前那震撼的一幕虽然把张铁震了一下，整个人心潮起伏了半响，但此刻，张铁已经镇定了下来，而且在把人带上来之后，张铁就有一种完成使命的感觉，神棍不用再装了，张铁又做回了自己，整个人浑身上下都有一种松了一口气的轻松感。
经过这一个多月，小树上的无漏果已经成熟了五颗，张铁已经可以随时晋升八级，再加上那九颗还未下肚的巨狼七力果，张铁觉得，自己这次来到冰雪荒原的原定计划已经差不多完成了，这个时候，就算重新改头换面拍拍屁股走人也没什么。
这么想着，张铁就镇定了下来，这三天中，他也找他身边的几个人了解了一下，冰雪荒原先知大祭司厄尔奇达的预言的确存在，这个东西很多人都知道，厄尔奇达的确预言过会有一个伟大的王者出现，那个人将统一冰雪荒原上的所有部落，建立一个国家，然后带领斯拉夫人走向伟大的复兴，这个预言是真的，但要说这个几百年前的预言说的是自己，张铁心里却是不相信的。
这种事情，对张铁来说，就像是走在大街上突然有人窜出来给了他一张幸运彩票，随后迫不及待的把彩票撕开后告诉他中了500万金币的大奖一样，简直太荒谬了，一定是骗局。
看着这几个老家伙，张铁慢慢的在心里整理着自己的思路，一定是在知道了自己在地下所显示的“神迹”之后，这些老家伙觉得自己很有利用价值，也能蛊惑人心，就有心用所谓的预言来把自己推上部落统治者的宝座，然后挟天子以令诸侯，让自己成为他们的傀儡，去做一些他们自己做不了或者不方便做的事情。
对张铁来说。 这也不是不行，就像做生意一样，只要是对双方都有利的事，而且这几个老家伙又出得起价钱，那么。 自己并不介意做一次傀儡。
张铁刚刚看到的那些强悍的战士也让张铁的野心撩动了一下。 如果能在冰雪荒原与这里最强大的部落拉上关系，张铁觉得以后说不定会用得着，也算是一条后路。
张铁以为自己发现了真相，脸上就慢慢的出现了一个冷笑，坐在椅子上的他干脆就抱着手臂，整个人靠在椅子后背上。 然后嚣张的把脚搭在了桌面上。
一个给自己剥着葡萄皮，一个给自己捏着肩膀，那样就完美了，谈判的气氛也有了，至少在气势上就不会输给这几个老家伙。 可惜，这样的场合，除了自己和这几个老家伙之外，没有任何人能参与进来。
这几个老家伙就是神棍，所以神棍那一套对他们显然是没有用的，装了一个月的神棍，张铁这个时候也懒得再继续装下去了。
“说说吧，你们想要我做什么，你们能给我开出什么样的条件，大家都是聪明人，就不要再浪费彼此的时间了，看在刚刚那一幕让我感动了好几秒钟的份上，我可以配合你们演一场戏，就算成为你们的傀儡也没什么，只要你们能付出相应的代价，还有，需要事先说明的是，我做事是有原则的，想要与我合作的话，那些伤天害理狗屁倒灶的事情我会选择拒绝！”
除了中间的沙林长老外，坐在沙林旁边的另外两个老家伙看到张铁现在的样子，眉头跳了跳，然后一起转过头，看向沙林。
张铁的无礼和嚣张没有让沙林长老皱眉，反而让他的脸上有了一丝笑意，满意的笑意。
“我们想让你做的事就是成为冰原巨熊部落的族长和领袖，我们无法给你开出什么条件！” 沙林长老微笑着说道。
听到这话，张铁怒了，他一直腰杆，一巴掌拍在桌子上，整个帐篷里发出“砰！” 的一声巨响，他盯着这几个老家伙，“那还谈个屁，想不付出代价就让我乖乖听你们的话，你们的这个如意算盘还打得真是不错！
“不是我们拿不出东西，而是我们所有的东西都是冰原巨熊部落的，你成为冰原巨熊部落的族长与领袖之后，整个部落都是你的，所有物资，所有战士都任由你支配使用，我们无法用原本属于你的东西和你交易！”
张铁愣住了，根本没想到沙林大祭司会是这样的回答。
“你是说整个部落都是我的？”
“是的！”
“我可以随意支配部落的财产，哪怕把部落的所有积蓄挥霍一空也没关系？”
“是的，只要你愿意，部落的一切财富都任由你支配，你要是高兴，就算把部落里的所有金币扔到大海里也行！”
“部落里的所有战士都听我的命令？”
“是的，能够贯彻你的意志是他们的使命，也是他们的荣耀！”
“哪怕让他们去死？”
“如果你想让他们去死的话，那死亡对他们来说就是无上的光荣，冰原巨熊部落的每一个战士都愿意为了他们的王去死！”
张铁的脸上出现了一个笑容，一个讽刺的笑容，“好吧，我答应了，做你们部落的族长，我现在就下令，外面所有的战士做好准备，我想要攻打艾斯基尔城！”
沙林大祭司深深的看了张铁一眼，根本没问什么，而是转过头平静的对旁边的一个老者说道，“托尔斯，去把所有的将领召集进来！”
那个老者深深的吸了一口气，一下子站了起来，一句话都不说，就大步向帐篷外面走去。
“艾斯基尔城是冰雪荒原上唯一的一座城市，它由铁熊部落建立，这座城市代表的也是铁熊部落，我们和冰雪荒原上所有的熊级部落都有着复杂的关系，冰原巨熊部落如果要和其他的熊级部落开战，这个命令，我们无法下达，只有你有这样的权利，所以，我们会把外面的将领召集起来，由你亲口向他们下达这个命令！”
听着这样的话，张铁搭在桌子上的脚不由就收了回去，他坐直了身子，眯着眼睛观察着沙林大祭司的脸，想看看这个老家伙是不是在说谎。
沙林大祭司也平静的看着张铁，眼睛就像宁静的夜空，两个人就这么无声的对视着。
唬我的，这个老家伙一定在唬我，张铁在心里自己对自己说道，沙林大祭司一定以为他这么说我就会叫住托尔斯，然后就会相信他们接下来的鬼话，哼哼，我偏不，我倒要看看他们这出戏要怎么演下去。
原本张铁以为他那么说的话这几个老家伙一定会编出一堆理由来搪塞他，没想到沙林大祭司那么干脆，这微微有点出乎张铁的预料之外，不过这样的小把戏，虽然能把一般人唬住，但对张铁来说，他还偏不信这个邪。

沙林大祭司站了起来，做出请的姿势，示意张铁坐到营帐正中间那一张桌案之后的主位上，那主位有一人多宽，椅子上蒙着一层不知道是什么野兽的雪白兽皮，显得霸气无比。
张铁看了沙林大祭司一眼，收起了脸上的表情，昂着头，大喇喇的大步走了过去，毫不犹豫的就在主位上坐下。
就在那个主位的旁边，还有三把稍微小一号的椅子，沙林大祭司和另外一个老家伙走了过去，就在那三把椅子上坐下，沙林大祭司坐在第一把椅子上，离张铁最近，剩下的那个人坐在第三把椅子上，离张铁最远，中间的椅子则空着。
不一会儿的功夫，刚刚离开帐篷的托尔斯一语不发的走了进来，在第二个椅子上挺值了腰杆做好。
看着三个老家伙严肃的样子，张铁心中微微犹豫了一下，一个念头从张铁的脑海之中闪过，难道他们说的是真的？ 真有这种好事砸到自己的脑袋上？

Zhang Tie and some white-beard seniors stared at each other for about 2 minutes in the spacious main tent. None of them spoke a word.
At this moment, Zhang Tie felt being an eccentric item as those seniors eyes made Zhang Tie feel being naked like how mercury penetrated in the marrow.
A couple of minutes ago, Zhang Tie's heart pounded heavily as he was shocked by what he saw. However, he had already recovered his composure now. Additionally, after leading his men out of there, Zhang Tie felt having completed his mission. He didn't need to disguise as the God anymore. He could be himself once again. Therefore, he was relaxed all over.
After over 1 month, 5 more leakless fruits had become ripe on the small tree. Zhang Tie could advance to LV 8 at any time.

Except for senior Sarlin, the eyebrows of the other two seniors on Sarlin's sides jumped as they turned around and stared at Sarlin.
Zhang Tie's ruthlessness didn't let senior Sarlin frown, instead, he revealed a wisp of satisfactory smile.
"We want you to be the clan elder and leader of the huge bear tribe, and we cannot give you any conditions!" senior Sarlin said with a slight smile.

But if the old guys lied to me, it's unnecessary for them to do this. That would be a great loss. Liars would never do that."
When Zhang Tie doubted about that, all the military officials of huge bear tribe entered in armors while raising their heads, weapons over their waists...

Is this not the immortal world?\" Mo Wuji asked inquisitively.\nThe man answering Mo Wuji revealed a ridicule smile as a flash of loneliness flashed by his eyes, \"Even you treat this place like the immortal world but it’s real name is the Half Immortal Domain. You wouldn’t be able to survive alone here so head forward to enter the Half Immortal Domain. Someone will approach you to join and you can join us in digging for minerals everyday.\"\nAfter saying this, that Earthly Immortal expert didn’t continue explaining as he carried on moving forward. As for the other Earthly Immortal, he didn’t even say anything from the very start.\nHalf Immortal Domain? Earthly Immortal Stage experts still had to dig for minerals everyday? Mo Wuji was completely lost as he watched the back view of these two experts became increasingly small.\nFrom the words of these two people, he knew that digging of the minerals wasn’t forced upon them and even joining the Half Immortal Domain wasn’t compulsory.\nNo matter what, he had to take a look at what was ahead of him.\nMo Wuji didn’t think any further as he headed towards the direction the man pointed to him earlier on. Four hours later, Mo Wuji’s spiritual will managed to sense a large architecture and there were streams of people entering and exiting it. It was indeed a residential district.\n\"My friend, are you new here?\" A short and plump cultivator hurried to block Mo Wuji as he clasped his fist cheerfully.\nMo Wuji nodded his head, \"That’s right, I am indeed new here.\"\n\"My name is Han Xing, please join my Blackstone Union. My Blackstone Union rewards its members the most and we will definitely not be short of spirit stones for cultivation. Moreover, my Blackstone Union’s strength in the Half Immortal Domain is…\"\n\"Hold on…\" Mo Wuji interrupted Han Xing’s words apologetically, \"Brother Han, the Blackstone Union that you talk about, is it a sect in the Half Immortal Domain?\"\n\"Li Qianfei, what are you trying to do? Messing with my Blackstone Union in public?\" Han Xing shouted furiously the moment he heard that someone wanted to hold Mo Wuji off.\nThis Li Qianfei, who was called by Han Xing, was also a plump cultivator and was in fact, even fatter than Han Xing. After he heard Han Xing’s words, he laughed coldly, \"Han Xing, which eye of yours saw me messing around with your Blackstone Union? This Dao friend just arrived and had yet to join a team so why is it that only your Blackstone Union can invite him? It is only natural that this Dao friend can choose to go wherever the conditions are better for him.\"\n\"Speaking of conditions, my Longevity Sect has the best conditions around here. This Dao friend here, join my Longevity Sect…\" Before Mo Wuji could clarify about the Blackstone Union and the Seeking Immortal Union, yet another cultivator came over.\n\"Why don’t you join my Sword Qi Flatland? We are the fairest and most open out of everyone here as we will definitely not allow any bullying of our members…\"\nMo Wuji was finally able to grasp a bit of what was happening. This Half Immortal Domain seemed to have many teams and these teams were all busy trying to recruit new members.\nAt one glance, most of the cultivators walking around were carrying a basket on their back. Some baskets were empty while others were filled with some black minerals.\n\"Everyone stop arguing and let this Dao friend make his own decision,\" Han Xing was feeling a little annoyed because there was lesser and lesser newcomers in the Half Immortal Domain recently and after he finally found one, he was met with so many competitors.\n\"Right, let our new friend choose one for himself,\" Li Qianfei added.\n\"Hold on… accidentally entered? Didn’t you break through the void after reaching the Great Circle of the Earthly Immortal Stage? Are you not a cultivator in the Great Circle of the Earthly Immortal Stage?\" Han Xing hurried to interrupt Mo Wuji’s words and asked shockingly.\nMo Wuji heard about breaking through the void and was stunned. If breaking through the void meant that he would reach a place like this, he really didn’t wish to break through the void.\nMo Wuji answered instinctively, \"No, I really did accidentally stepped into the space array door and reached here. I am only at the Worldly Immortal Stage.\"\n\"...\" Everyone who was fighting for Mo Wuji exchanged glances and Li Qianfei was to first to speak, \"I still have something on, you guys carry on.\"\nAfter saying that, Li Qianfei sped off. Evidently, Mo Wuji’s cultivation level made him disappointed and he was no longer interested in wasting time here.\n\"Are you really only a Worldly Immortal Stage expert?\" Han Xing was in disbelief as he asked once more.\nMo Wuji nodded his head, \"That’s right, I am only in the Worldly Immortal Stage but I am already in the intermediate stage. I believe in a few years time, I will definitely be able to step into the Earthly Immortal Stage.\"\nMo Wuji could tell that all the fellas who were fighting for him previously were starting to despise him because of his cultivation level. He hurried to say a few words about himself so as to ‘promote’ himself to them.\n\"I have no means to help you now,\" Han Xing shook his head and left immediately.\nAfter Han Xing and Li Qianfei left, the ‘fair and open’ fella from the Sword Qi Flatland left quicker than anyone else. Mo Wuji hurried to grab the last fella from the Longevity Sect and said, \"This Dao friend, please hold on…\""

第四百零一章
莫无忌根本就懒得理睬苍血，天机棍再次轰出，直接砸在了那已经出现裂纹的谷壁处。
这次没有人跟随莫无忌一起动手，不过莫无忌已不需要别人动手了。 谷壁原本就裂开的纹路，在莫无忌这全力轰出的一棍之下，发出一声‘哗啦’炸响，大片大片的碎石落下。
一个方圆数丈的巨大洞口出现在众人的面前，所有的人都震惊的盯着这个巨大的洞口，神念也都扫进了洞中。
很快众人就发现，这个巨大的洞口不知道通往何处，神念根本就扫不到尽头。
不但如此，这个巨洞的表面看起来平淡无奇，可是里面却汹涌澎湃，似乎有无穷无尽的乱刀在其中狂卷。
“也许这通往仙界……”半晌之后，穆影桥才转头说道。
莫无忌自己也很是震惊，他以为这里只是一个阵基，没想到将这个阵基打破后，还有这样一番天地。 别人的神念无法扫到这个巨洞的尽头，他的神念一样无法扫到尽头。
现在边双壁问他，他略一沉吟说道，“我也不知道，无论如何，我认为这里至少有一条路。”
没有人接口，也没有人第一个进入这个巨洞。 各人的神念已经告诉了大家，这个巨洞中绝对不会平静。
莫无忌见无人移动脚步，索性说道，“既然如此，我就先走一步，各位告辞了。”
说完，莫无忌一步跨出，直接冲进了那个巨大的狂暴大洞中。
看见莫无忌进去，娄川河连话都懒得说一句，直接跟在莫无忌后面冲进了巨洞。
有了第一、第二个人进入，其余的人也都在观察了一会后，陆续进入巨洞之中。
莫无忌一进入巨洞，就感受到了更为浓郁的灵气，这灵气甚至比星帝峰还要高级。 这愈发让莫无忌怀疑，穿过这个巨洞会不会真的是仙界？
洞中强大的螺旋狂风，的确和乱刀一般，不但压制莫无忌前进，还能不断的轰在莫无忌身上，从莫无忌身上带出一道又一道的伤痕。
莫无忌经历过荆棘风门，这种狂刀一般的螺旋狂风虽然可以给他造成伤害，想要灭掉他，还差一些。
巨洞就好像无穷无尽的深远，莫无忌不断的逆流而上。 一个月过去，在付出数不清的伤痕之后，他终于感受到那狂暴的乱风减弱了很多，这让莫无忌的速度快了许多。
这是空间阵门！
在真星的星空码头就有空间阵门，莫无忌太熟悉这种空间阵门了。 他立即护住全身，任凭这力量将他卷走。
莫无忌的神念扫出去，一望无际的戈壁滩。 黑色的土地格外显眼，在他的神念范围之下，没有一丁点的绿意。
莫无忌的印象和所读资料中，从未有过这种地方的印象。 只是在原地犹豫了一会，莫无忌选择了一个方向，迅速离开。
他知道那个空间阵门是随机的，就算是他等在原地，也不一定能等到娄川河等人。 不过莫无忌并没有失望，这个地方至少还有一个好处，那就是这里的灵气不错。
尽管这种灵气的等级似乎比真星的灵气要高，莫无忌猜测这里应该不是仙界。 他用过半月狱中获得的灵石碎片，那种灵石碎片的灵气等级比这里的灵气等级也要高级一些。
如果这里是仙界的话，那灵气不可能比那灵石碎片还差才是。
好在半天后，莫无忌看见了两个人。 莫无忌立即过去，落在了这两人的身前一抱拳说道，“两位道友请了。”
这两人的打扮有些古怪，每人背后都背着一个箩筐，而且箩筐中放着一些黑色的矿物，不知道是什么东西。
更让莫无忌惊异的是，这两个人的修为。 他肯定这两个人的实力都比他强，至少是地仙圆满。
“刚来的？” 身材略高的男子打量了莫无忌一番，目光落在莫无忌的手腕上，随后淡淡的说道。
莫无忌这才发现，这两人的手腕上都有一个圆环。
“是的，我不小心进入空间阵门，来到了这里。” 莫无忌老实的回答道。
“从这里一直往前走，你会看见一片居住区，然后你去办理一个身份手环。” 略高男子指了一个方向说道。
“身份手环？ 请问这里是什么地方？ 难道不是仙界吗？”
莫无忌疑惑的问道。 回答莫无忌的男子嘴角现出一丝讥笑，随即眼中一点落寞闪过，“你也将这里当成仙界，不过真正的名字叫半仙域。 在这里一个人是活不下去的，去前面可以加入半仙域，有人会找你加入，然后和我们一样，每天挖矿。”
说完这句话，那名地仙没有再多做解释，继续前进。 至于另外一名地仙，从头到尾都没有说过一句话。
身为地仙还每天挖矿？ 莫无忌看着这两人远去的背影，完全不明白是怎么回事。
从这两人的口中，他知道这种挖矿似乎不是强制的，就算是加入半仙域也不是强制的。
无论如何，先去看看再说。
莫无忌不再多想，顺着刚才那名地仙指引的方向迅速遁过去。 两个时辰后，莫无忌的神念已经扫到了一大片的建筑物，还有众多的修士来来往往，的确是一个群住所在。
“朋友，你新来的吗？” 一名矮胖的修士迅速拦住了莫无忌，笑吟吟的抱拳问道。
莫无忌点点头，“没错，我的确是新来的。”
“我叫韩行，加入我们黑石会吧。 我黑石会在这里报酬是最多的，绝对不会让给缺少灵石修炼。
“等等……”莫无忌歉意的打断了韩行的话，“韩兄，你说的黑石会是半仙域中的一个宗门吗？”
公开和我黑石会闹吗？” 韩行听到有人要拦截莫无忌，立即怒声说道。
这被韩行叫着利潜飞的同样是一名胖修，比韩行还要胖上一圈，他听到韩行的话，眯缝着眼冷笑说道，“韩行，你哪只眼睛看见我找你黑石会闹了？ 这位道友刚来这里，还没有加入任何一个组织，凭什么只能你黑石会邀请？
自然是谁给的条件好，这位道友去哪里。”
“要说条件，我长生门的条件是最好了。
莫无忌隐约有些明白是怎么回事了，这半仙域似乎有很多组织，这些组织都在拉拢新人。
他的目光之下，这里来来去去的修士大都是背着一个背筐，有些是空的，有些背筐中装着一些黑色的矿物。
“大家不要吵了，让这位道友自行选择吧。” 韩行有些郁闷，最近来半仙域的新人越来越少了，好不容易抓到一个，却被人竞争。
“对，让这位新来的朋友自己选择。”
“等等……你是误入的？ 难道你不是地仙圆满后破碎虚空而来？ 难道你不是地仙圆满修士？”
莫无忌听到破碎虚空，顿时愣住了。 如果破碎虚空，来到的是这样一个破地方，他还真不想破碎虚空。
随即他就回答道，“不是，我的确是不小心进入了空间阵门，这才来到这里。 我的实际修为才人仙而已。”
“……”周围争夺莫无忌的几人都是互相看了几眼，利潜飞第一个说道，“我还有事，你们继续吧。”
说完，利潜飞迅速离去。 显然莫无忌的修为让他失望，没有兴趣继续在这里啰嗦。
“你真的是人仙修为？” 韩行又不甘心的询问了一句。
莫无忌点点头，“没错，我的确只有人仙修为，不过也到了人仙中期。 我相信再有一些年，我肯定能过跨入地仙。”
莫无忌算是看出来了，这些本来争夺他的家伙，现在又开始嫌弃他的修为来。 他赶紧为自己说了几句话，要将自己推销出去。
“我没有办法帮你了。” 韩行苦笑的摇了摇头，迅速离去。
韩行和利潜飞离去，那口口声声说剑气平原最公平的家伙更是走的比谁都快。

Chapter 401: Half Immortal Domain
Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations Mo Wuji couldn't be bothered with Cang Xue as he continued to swing his Tian Ji Pole against the crack on the canyon wall.
This time round, nobody else followed Mo Wuji but Mo Wuji no longer needed their help. As soon as Mo Wuji used all his force to strike against the crack on the wall, a loud crackling sound could be heard and large pieces of rocks fell.
A huge hole appeared in front of the crowd and everyone stared shockingly with the mouth wide opened at this massive hole as all of them started scanning the hole using their spiritual will.
Very soon, people realised that they had no idea where this massive hole was leading to and they couldn’t sense the end with their spiritual will.
Not only this, this massive hole looked normal and calm on the surface but there was a surge of turbulence inside the hole as if there were endless number of swords flying all around.
"This could perhaps lead to the immortal world…" Half a moment later, Mu Yingqiao turned and said.
Mo Wuji was equally shocked because he initially thought that it was only an array base but after destroying the wall and the array base, there was actually a place like this inside this canyon. Since the spiritual will of others couldn’t sense the end of the hole, Mo Wuji’s spiritual will couldn’t too.
Now that Bian Shuangbi asked him, he could only ponder for a moment before saying, "I have no idea too but regardless, I believe there is at least one route here."
Nobody continued talking and nobody dared to be the first to enter this hole too. Their own spiritual will had already warned them that this massive hole was nothing but calm and peaceful.
Mo Wuji noticed that nobody moved an inch so he simply said, "Since this is the case, I shall make my move first. Goodbye everyone."
Finishing his statement, Mo Wuji stepped out and went directly into the massive turbulent hole.
After watching Mo Wuji entered, Lou Chuanhe didn’t bother saying anything as he followed Mo Wuji into the massive hole.
Having observed the first and second man entering the hole, the rest of them started to enter the hole one after the other. No matter what this hole entailed, Mo Wuji didn’t lie about the fact that this was at least a way out.
… The moment Mo Wuji entered the massive hole, he could feel an even denser spiritual energy and this spiritual energy was of a higher grade than that of the Star Lord Mountain. This made Mo Wuji wondered if this hole could actually lead to the immortal world.
The formidable spiral wind was indeed like swords flying around as it not only prevented Mo Wuji from entering but also continuously brought about scars one after another on his body.
Mo Wuji had already experienced the Thorny Wind Gate so these intensely sharp spiral wind might be able to injure him but to completely take him out, it was still lacking.
This massive hole was like a boundless passage as Mo Wuji didn’t stop moving forward. A month has passed and after countless of scars, he could finally feel the weakening of the crazy wind which made Mo Wuji’s speed a lot faster. After a few more days, just as Mo Wuji’s spiritual will was able to work, his entire body became light and a tremendous force carried him up.
This was the space array gate!
There was a space array gate right at the Universal Pier of Zhen Xing so Mo Wuji was too familiar with this type of array gate. He immediately covered his entire body and allowed this force to bring him away.
Indeed, after a period of dizziness, Mo Wuji landed on solid land. This was actually not the space? Mo Wuji used his spiritual will and he sensed a boundless desert. The black coloured soil was extremely eye catching as there wasn’t a tinge of green under the scan of his spiritual will.
There was no impression of such a place in Mo Wuji’s mind and he had never read about it. It was only after a moment of hesitation, Mo Wuji decided to choose a direction and hurried towards that direction.
He was aware that the space array gates were random and even if he were to wait at his original spot, he might not be able to see Lou Chuanhe and co. However, Mo Wuji wasn’t disappointed because there was quite a dense amount of spiritual energy in this place too.
Even though the spiritual energy here seemed to be of a higher grade than the spiritual energy in Zhen Xing, Mo Wuji guessed that this shouldn’t be the immortal world because even the spirit stones slags that he retrieved from the Half Moon Immortal Palace was of a slightly higher quality grade than these.
If this was truly the immortal world, the spiritual energy couldn’t have been any poorer than that of a spirit stone slag.
Fortunately after half a day of travelling, Mo Wuji saw two more people. Mo Wuji hurried over and landed beside the two of them as he clasped his fist and said, "Greetings the two Dao friends over here."
The two of them looked a little strange as each of them was carrying a basket on their back and the basket was filled with some black coloured minerals which Mo Wuji had no idea what it was.
What Mo Wuji noticed that was even more peculiar was their cultivation level. He was certain that the two of them were stronger than him and was at least in the Great Circle of the Earthly Immortal Stage.
"Newbie?" The slightly taller man sized Mo Wuji up and glanced at Mo Wuji’s wrist before saying faintly.
It was only then that Mo Wiji realised that both of them had a circular bracelet on their wrist.
"Yes, I accidentally entered the space array gate to arrive here," Mo Wuji answered honestly.
"Walk straight from here, you will see a residential district and you can make a identity bracelet there," The slightly taller man pointed to a direction as he said
"Identity bracelet? May I know what is this place? Is this not the immortal world?" Mo Wuji asked inquisitively.
The man answering Mo Wuji revealed a ridicule smile as a flash of loneliness flashed by his eyes, "Even you treat this place like the immortal world but it’s real name is the Half Immortal Domain. You wouldn’t be able to survive alone here so head forward to enter the Half Immortal Domain. Someone will approach you to join and you can join us in digging for minerals everyday."
After saying this, that Earthly Immortal expert didn’t continue explaining as he carried on moving forward. As for the other Earthly Immortal, he didn’t even say anything from the very start.
Half Immortal Domain? Earthly Immortal Stage experts still had to dig for minerals everyday? Mo Wuji was completely lost as he watched the back view of these two experts became increasingly small.
From the words of these two people, he knew that digging of the minerals wasn’t forced upon them and even joining the Half Immortal Domain wasn’t compulsory.
No matter what, he had to take a look at what was ahead of him.
Mo Wuji didn’t think any further as he headed towards the direction the man pointed to him earlier on. Four hours later, Mo Wuji’s spiritual will managed to sense a large architecture and there were streams of people entering and exiting it. It was indeed a residential district.
"My friend, are you new here?" A short and plump cultivator hurried to block Mo Wuji as he clasped his fist cheerfully.
Mo Wuji nodded his head, "That’s right, I am indeed new here."
"My name is Han Xing, please join my Blackstone Union. My Blackstone Union rewards its members the most and we will definitely not be short of spirit stones for cultivation. Moreover, my Blackstone Union’s strength in the Half Immortal Domain is…"
"Hold on…" Mo Wuji interrupted Han Xing’s words apologetically, "Brother Han, the Blackstone Union that you talk about, is it a sect in the Half Immortal Domain?"
"Li Qianfei, what are you trying to do? Messing with my Blackstone Union in public?" Han Xing shouted furiously the moment he heard that someone wanted to hold Mo Wuji off.
This Li Qianfei, who was called by Han Xing, was also a plump cultivator and was in fact, even fatter than Han Xing. After he heard Han Xing’s words, he laughed coldly, "Han Xing, which eye of yours saw me messing around with your Blackstone Union? This Dao friend just arrived and had yet to join a team so why is it that only your Blackstone Union can invite him? It is only natural that this Dao friend can choose to go wherever the conditions are better for him."
"Speaking of conditions, my Longevity Sect has the best conditions around here. This Dao friend here, join my Longevity Sect…" Before Mo Wuji could clarify about the Blackstone Union and the Seeking Immortal Union, yet another cultivator came over.
"Why don’t you join my Sword Qi Flatland? We are the fairest and most open out of everyone here as we will definitely not allow any bullying of our members…"
Mo Wuji was finally able to grasp a bit of what was happening. This Half Immortal Domain seemed to have many teams and these teams were all busy trying to recruit new members.
At one glance, most of the cultivators walking around were carrying a basket on their back. Some baskets were empty while others were filled with some black minerals.
"Everyone stop arguing and let this Dao friend make his own decision," Han Xing was feeling a little annoyed because there was lesser and lesser newcomers in the Half Immortal Domain recently and after he finally found one, he was met with so many competitors.
"Right, let our new friend choose one for himself," Li Qianfei added.
"Hold on… accidentally entered? Didn’t you break through the void after reaching the Great Circle of the Earthly Immortal Stage? Are you not a cultivator in the Great Circle of the Earthly Immortal Stage?" Han Xing hurried to interrupt Mo Wuji’s words and asked shockingly.
Mo Wuji heard about breaking through the void and was stunned. If breaking through the void meant that he would reach a place like this, he really didn’t wish to break through the void.
Mo Wuji answered instinctively, "No, I really did accidentally stepped into the space array door and reached here. I am only at the Worldly Immortal Stage."
"..." Everyone who was fighting for Mo Wuji exchanged glances and Li Qianfei was to first to speak, "I still have something on, you guys carry on."
After saying that, Li Qianfei sped off. Evidently, Mo Wuji’s cultivation level made him disappointed and he was no longer interested in wasting time here.
"Are you really only a Worldly Immortal Stage expert?" Han Xing was in disbelief as he asked once more.
Mo Wuji nodded his head, "That’s right, I am only in the Worldly Immortal Stage but I am already in the intermediate stage. I believe in a few years time, I will definitely be able to step into the Earthly Immortal Stage."
Mo Wuji could tell that all the fellas who were fighting for him previously were starting to despise him because of his cultivation level. He hurried to say a few words about himself so as to ‘promote’ himself to them.
"I have no means to help you now," Han Xing shook his head and left immediately.
After Han Xing and Li Qianfei left, the ‘fair and open’ fella from the Sword Qi Flatland left quicker than anyone else. Mo Wuji hurried to grab the last fella from the Longevity Sect and said, "This Dao friend, please hold on…"

第四百五十五章
自上次猎杀了白毛猛犸之后，韩森就真正在女神军团中竖立起了威信，真正让人认可了他的团长地位，甚至于有很多年轻人提起韩森都是一脸的崇拜。
女神军团也渐渐有了一些凝聚力，韩森对于肯为女神军团出力的成员毫不吝啬奖励，也就是那些异生物的血肉。
特别是许悠等一批敢打敢拼的年轻人，韩森都让杨曼丽重点观察培养。
韩森的到来，让这里发生了翻天覆地的变化，虽然还是不敢去太远的地方狩猎，也不敢靠近异灵庇护所的区域，不过有韩森带队的时候，已经可以四周的山脉中大批量的猎杀普通和原始异生物。
使得这里的进化者都看到了一丝希望，不用再继续浑浑噩噩度日的希望。 很多失去了希望，已经很久没有进入庇护所的人，听说了这个消息之后，都再次进入了庇护所，想要看看是不是真的如传说所说的一般。 结果却让他们欣喜若狂，这个冰雪世界的孤立之处，已经没有了往日的孤寂，到处都可以看到人们活跃的身影，虽然与大的人类聚集地没办法比，但是也已经不那么让人绝望，越来越多重新燃起了希望的人投入了女神军团。
越来越多的人相互转告，让那些失去了希望的人重新进入庇护所，也令女神军团越来越壮大。 而且有了大量的异生物血肉，商人和有钱人也开始了他们的动作，让交易变的频繁起来，人们之间的互动也变的多了起来。
只是因为韩森平时实在太少时间出现，大多数人都只知道韩森这个名字，根本连韩森长什么样子都不知道。
更多的人都已经把韩森当成了一个传说，一个活着的传说。
一个刚刚进入第二庇护所没几个月的进化者，竟然以一己之力，令一个人类聚集地重新活跃起来，给了许多绝望的人希望，这无疑已经是一个传说。
认识杨曼丽这个副团长显然要多很多，很多人认识女神军团之所以有这个名字，就是因为有杨曼丽的存在，认为杨曼丽是韩森的女人，是女神军团的女主人。
杨曼丽自然也听过这种说法，开始还十分的羞怒，可是实在难以纠正所有人，时间久了，她也就懒的再去纠正了。
“大哥，真的是你啊，我可找到组织了。” 这一天，韩森才刚刚从联盟传送进入庇护所世界，就突然看到一个人跑出来，一把鼻涕一把泪的抱住了韩森的大腿。
“朱停？” 韩森看清楚面前的这人，不由得楞了一下，他真的没有想到，竟然会在这里遇到朱停。
“你还敢在我面前出现？ 以为我真的不会杀你吗？” 韩森冷下脸来看着朱停说道。
“大哥，在这鬼地方活着真没啥意思，不能跟着大哥你混，还不如死了算了，你要杀就杀吧！” 朱停却是抱着韩森的大腿不放。
韩森不由得心中暗笑：“这家伙竟然也这么倒霉的来到了这里，肯定不知道吃了多少苦头，看起来人都快疯了。”
“你什么时候来的这里，怎么我一直没看到你？” 韩森把朱停带到一个没人的地方，打量着朱停问道。
“那次我逃走之后就直接来了第二庇护所，没想到竟然会是这么一个鬼地方，出去猎杀一只原始生物都要拿命去拼，这么久下来，我连普通基因都还没有满，这真不是人过的日子……两个月前我出去了一趟，结果被一只变异生物追的上天无路入地无门，差点就死在外面，前天才好不容易跑了回来，听说了大哥你的事情，就在传送阵那里一直等着大哥你……”朱停一把鼻涕一把泪的说道。
韩森自然不会完全相信朱停，这家伙奸诈的很，一身都是毒，又工于心计，是个拉得下脸皮又杀人不眨眼的狠角色，绝对是一个非常危险的家伙。
不过韩森还没有想要杀朱停，这家伙虽然危险，韩森却不放在眼里，而且他还知道很多韩森迫切想要知道的事情，比如关于韩敬之的事情。
朱停是陈家的私生子，陈家好像也知道当年的事情，只是不知道陈家在其中扮演的是什么样的角色。
韩森很是怀疑，陈家的先一辈人物，很可能也是特勤调查科第七行动小组的其中一员。
“你想跟着我混，我凭什么要收你呢？” 韩森似笑非笑的看着朱停，无论他有什么目的，先从他身上榨点好处出来再说。
“大哥，无论怎么样，我也比其他那些普通人要有用的多吧？” 朱停眨了眨眼睛说道。
“也危险的多。”
韩森淡淡地接了一句。 朱停顿时苦笑着说道：“韩少爷，我的韩大哥，你是韩教官的后人，我哪敢对你起什么心思啊！
“你们陈家的消息到是灵通的很，不过我不记得我们韩家和你们陈家有什么交情。” 韩森不为所动，现在谁都说和韩敬之交好，他也分辨不出谁真谁假，索性都不相信。
“韩教官难道没有说过，我家祖上也是特勤调查科的一员，和韩教官他老人家是同事吗？”
韩森也不多说，心中却暗道：“果然如此，陈家也是当年特勤调查科的一员。”
“你说那些都没用，来点实际的，想跟着我混不是不行，没有入伙费却肯定不行。”
韩森看着朱停说道。 朱停苦着脸说道：“来到这鬼地方之后，我什么好处都没有捞到，从第一庇护所带来的兽魂差不多已经全部毁掉了，现在我真的是穷的只剩下钱了，你要钱吗？ 说个数，多少我都给。”
“你不是还有惊天七折嘛。” 韩森突然说了一句。
韩森对于陈家的惊天七折一直十分惦记，虽然拥有兽魂翅膀也能够飞行，可是兽魂翅膀的飞行速度是根据兽魂本身的强弱决定的，而不是由自身的力量决定，所以韩森对于自身能够控制的惊天七折十分有兴趣。
只是惊天七折是陈家的秘传超核基因术，外人根本学不到，现在有这么一个机会，韩森就想探一探朱停的口风，看看自己有没有可能学到惊天七折。

Chapter 454: Take Me with You Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
After killing the white mammoth, Han Sen had established his prestige in Goddess Gang. People had officially recognized him as the leader. Many young people even saw him as an idol.
The Goddess Gang had become more and more organized. Han Sen was very generous to the members that worked hard, awarding them with lots of meat. n
Han Sen asked Yang Manli to specifically cultivate the young men like Xu You who dared to risk their lives.
Han Sen’s arrival brought a revolution to the place. Although they still did not dare to hunt in remote areas or approach the spirit shelter, with Han Sen leading the team, they were able to kill lots of ordinary and primitive creatures at once in the mountains nearby.
Many people who had not entered God’s Sanctuary in a long time and lost hope returned to the place after hearing the news, wanting to see if the legend was real. It turned out they were ecstatic. The world of ice and snow was no longer silent like before. People were active everywhere. Although it could not be compared to large human shelters, the situation was not that desperate. More and more people had their hold back and joined Goddess Gang.
More and more people told each other about the news, making those who had lost hope and her God’s sanctuary again. Therefore, Goddess Gang became stronger and stronger. With lots of meat to trade, the rich had also started to appear. Trade became more and more frequent and there had been a lot of transactions.
Because Han Sen rarely showed up, few people knew what he looked like. Most people only knew the name Han Sen.
More people thought of Han Sen as a legend, a living legend.
An evolver who had just entered Second God’s Sanctuary for a few months revived a place on his own and inspired lots of desperate people, which could only exist in a legend.
Obviously, more people recognized Yang Manli, the righthand woman. Many people assumed that Yang Manli was the goddess in "Goddess Gang" and thought she was Han Sen’s lady, the mistress of Goddess Gang.
Of course, Yang Manli had also heard such assumption. In the beginning, she was shy and angry. However, it was impossible for her to clarify every time. After a while, she was tired of correcting others.

Han Sen chuckled inwardly and thought to himself, this guy is quite unlucky to be assigned here. He must have gone through many hardships. It looks like he’s going mad.

第1221章
“蝎，你带小队找机会下手，没有把握之前不要打草惊蛇。” 百叶点了点头。
进入秘境后，她们各大舰队成员能相聚的地点并不多，除了起始点外，就是选择同一条前往传承的路径，在各大传承路径中都有一个休息点，可以让玩家不用受到怪物骚扰，此外在没有其他地方有下手的机会。
现在各大舰队要先休整一下，之后选择路径，可以说是下手最好的地方。
虽然会跟君无常稍微识破一点脸皮，不过为了完成魔神发布的任务，这点损失完全承受的起。
“小队，没有必要吧，他不过就是一人而已，我一个人就可以让他神不知鬼不觉的死掉。” 一旁名叫蝎的黑衣刺客瞥了一眼远处的石峰，很不屑道。
他可是被圣法殿派来暗中保护百叶的顶尖高手。
也是外界无人不知无人不晓的顶尖刺客，位列风云高手榜上第六十九名的人，在整个神域里能抵挡住他暗杀的顶尖高手屈指可数。
现在暗杀一个来路不明的小子，简直是轻而易举的事情，根本没有必要动用整个守备队。
为了确保百叶的安全，平常守护百叶都是由守备队轮流负责，一共六名成员，最低层次都已经达到半步流水的程度，普通都有流水之境的高手。
这时其他五名守备队的成员也都点了点头，光是让队长动手已经够高看了，因为整个终结海域还没有人能抵挡得住队长的暗杀手段，让他们一起上，根本就是欺负人。
“小心无错，这个任务对我很重要，要是成功了，说不定我能更进一步。” 百叶神情一冷，非常严肃的说道。
顿时蝎等人就感觉全身一哆嗦，巨大的压力直接扑面而来。
而这种压力也就只有蝎等人能感受到，因为这种压力并非来自于实力，而是来自于地位的差距。
也更明白了事情的严重性。
其他守备队成员也都默默点头，不敢在说话。
随即蝎等人就悄悄开启潜行，缓缓绕向石峰，明显是想要形成一个包围网，不给石峰一丝活下来的机会。
就在蝎等人一步一步接近石峰时，石峰也放出了迅龙快艇。
迅龙快艇出现的瞬间，原本风平浪静的水面突然搅动起一股狂风，水面中形成了一个个巨大的漩涡，整个洞窟仿佛走在摇晃，好像要崩塌了一般。
“怎么回事？” 众人都不由警觉起来。
秘境中危险密布，一不小心就丢掉性命的事情可不少见，现在洞窟内有如此大的动静，又怎么可能不让人心惊肉。
“你们看远处的石窟！” 在一名眼力好的游侠突然喊道。
顿时众人都纷纷望向远处的石窟。
此时洞窟内的烟雾已经被狂风吹散，整个洞窟内的情况虽然不是一目了然，但也看的七七八八。
原本十二条路径的石窟，不知道什么时候又多了一条，这个洞口非常大。 “我的天，不会吧！”
众人看着这一幕，心中大震。
秘境内的情况，他们自由联盟都有做总结。
一共十二个传承路径，洞口有大有小，一共分为三个级别，直径20码的，直径30码的，直径50码的，进入的洞口越大，里面也就越危险，这是他们上一次总结出来的，因为上一次但凡进入直径50码的团队，没有一个踏入内部区，反而让第一舰队通过了直接最小的20码洞口。
“怎么会？ 上一次还没有出现过呀！”
君无常望着巨大的洞口，神情很是复杂。 因为眼前的这个洞口说不定就是海龙秘境最大的秘密，只是不知道该不该进去，入过这次不进去，说不定下一次来就没有了，毕竟上一次并没有出现过这样的情况，不排除下一次一定会出现。 但是危险程度不用说都是最大的。
“机会！
哈哈哈，机会来了！” 第二舰队的团长夏天齐心中狂喜，对着天蛛暗密道，“这可是我们的机会，如果我们能得到海龙秘境最强的传承，以后不管熵不言再来多少次秘境也不可能在跟我们竞争海天城了。”
“可是这难度恐怕不小。” 第四舰队的团长天蛛有些担忧道。
“怕什么，别忘了我们还有那个。”
夏天齐丝毫不在意道，“要是不去试一试，说不定以后就没有机会了。”
说着夏天齐就二话不说拿出了一个玻璃瓶，念动咒语。
骤然一艘有两个主帆的小型帆船就出现在了水面上，巨大的体型根本不是快艇能比，哪怕是青铜级快艇，在这艘帆船面前都好像一个小木船，一不小心就能撞沉了。
其他舰队的团长看到小型帆船后，嘴巴都长成了0型。
到目前为止整个终结海域里还没有听过有谁拥有小型帆船。
远处的君无常和百叶等人也是眉头紧皱，脸色多少有些不好。
小型帆船和快艇可完全不是一个级别的东西，如果是快艇是手枪机枪，那么小型帆船就是坦克，完全辗压快艇，哪怕是独自面对大领主级的海兽，也能轻松抗住，不因为别的，只因为帆船能承载的玩家数量够多。
“哈哈哈，我们就先行一步了。” 夏天齐放出小型帆船后二话不说就组织所有人上了船，直接奔向最大的洞窟。
虽然他手中的小型帆船只是普通级，但也不是快艇能比的，光是容纳人数就有100人，抗boss时可以分出很多mt来分担伤害，根本就不是快艇能比的，再他们第二舰队和第四舰队的八艘青铜级快艇，绝对是整个自由联盟内最强的舰队。
“不愧是夏天齐，准备还真是厉害。” 熵不言笑了笑，随即也从背包里拿出一个玻璃瓶。
只是一转眼，又一艘小型帆船出现在众人的眼前，而自由联盟第十一舰队的团长也跟着熵不言上了帆船，直接追向夏天齐而去，而说到舰队实力，还要比夏天齐多一艘青铜级快艇。
顿时其他舰队的团长都傻眼了。
他们虽然知道排名前列的舰队隐藏了不少实力，但是绝对没有想到会隐藏这么多。
“熵不言！
夏天齐！” 百叶看着已经远去的两艘小型帆船，目光中满是愤怒。
原本她是要一举成为自由联盟第一舰队的计划，现在全被两人给打乱了。 “百叶，君无常他们也行动了。”
一旁的蒙面女子指了指已经船前往最大洞窟的石峰等人。 “他们是傻了吗？”
百叶看着五艘赶过去的快艇，一脸不解道。

“Scorpion, take the party with you and find an opportunity to strike. Don’t attack unless you’re absolutely confident of succeeding.” Hundred Leaves nodded.
After entering the secret land, aside from the starting point, there would not be many places where their various fleets would encounter each other.

“There’s no harm in being careful. This quest is very important to me. If I succeed, I might be able to improve further,” Hundred Leaves said in an extremely stern tone.
Immediately, Scorpion and the others shuddered as massive pressure washed over their bodies.
Meanwhile, only Scorpion and the security party members felt this pressure, as it was not the result of a difference in strength but a difference in status.
“I understand,” Scorpion said hurriedly, realizing the gravity of the matter.
The other members of the security party also nodded promptly, not daring to speak another word.
Following which, Scorpion and the others activated Stealth and approached Shi Feng from different directions, clearly intending to form an encirclement, which would give Shi Feng no opportunity to escape alive.
Just as Scorpion and the others were gradually closing the distance to their target, Shi Feng released the Swift Dragon Speedboat.
The instant the Swift Dragon Speedboat appeared, a storm stirred up the previously peaceful waters, a massive vortex forming in the water. The entire cavern shook as if it would collapse at any moment.

Until now, there had been no news of anybody in possession of a Small Sailboat.

A Small Sailboat was on an entirely different level from a speedboat. If a speedboat could be considered a machine gun, then a Small Sailboat was akin to a tank.

Originally, she had planned on directly becoming the First Fleet of the Freedom Alliance in this expedition. Now, however, those two people had ruined her plans.
“Leaves, Passing Monarch and the others are also starting to move out,” the cloaked woman said as she pointed at Shi Feng and the others, whose ships were already heading towards the largest grotto.

When she saw Myka’s red face, the passion in her eyes, and her messy hair, she could easily guess what the two of them had been doing.\nDiane cleared her throat and then said, \"I… Uh… I actually did not want to disturb you. However, Darke has already seen Rody. I and Myka knew Rody’s identity but I do not know how to explain this to Darke. So, I came back here. The two of you, please stop scolding me in your hearts.\"\nRody frowned and thought to himself. He then replied, \"Darke should be told about this matter. In the future, there are many things that I will need his help with. This matter involves many people but I do not have many helpers by my side. I trust Darke but I still need to find a suitable time to tell him.\"\nDiane nodded and then loudly said, \"Alright. I have asked what I wanted to ask! The two of you… Please carry on!

Such naughty words … carry on what ... \"\nRody looked awkward. He then stood up and said, \"I need to return to the barracks. I cannot stay here too long. The two of you should just stay here in West Hill. This place also looks secluded.\"\nDiane stared at Rody and loudly asked, \"Are you going to let Myka just stay here? You are not taking her back with you?\"\nDiane then asked, \"If women are forbidden in the barracks, what about the Duke’s other home?\"\nRody sighed as he slowly pulled Myka's hands. He whispered, \"I… I do not know how to say this to you. Right now, my identity is a little peculiar. According to our plans, we would slowly reveal my relationship with Nicole. So, for the next few days, I cannot accompany you... This involved too many people... The burden would be too heavy…\"\nMyka smiled calmly and gently said, \"I understand. You do not need to say anymore. I will wait for you here.\"\nMyka’s words made Rody feel even more guilty. He then said, \"I have no choice. My current identity involves too many people. If the plan fails, the consequences would be serious. Myka. Can you understand that?\"\nMyka shook her head and softly said, \"It does not matter. I will believe whatever you say.\"\nRody looked at Myka and softly said, \"I have truly caused you a lot of heartaches.\"\nDiane coughed lightly when he saw the two lovers stare at each other and gave a wry smile. \"The two of you really think I am transparent. Alright... I am going now. Even if you do not scold me, I will still feel out of place.\"\nRody shook his head. He then laughed and said, \"I have to go back now. Be careful in West Hill. If you have any problems, look for me at the barracks.\" He then looked and Myka and said, \"Wait here for me. I will come back for you.\"\nDiane watched Rody leave. She then turned to Myka and hatefully said, \"Are you really just letting him go like this? You have followed him for thousands of miles. You finally found him today but then you are just letting him leave like this?\"\nRody did not return to the barracks. He went straight to the Duke’s mansion. That night, the local officials greeted the Duke's group with a banquet.\nThe Duke had announced that he would not be able to attend and Nicole would represent the Duke during the banquet. Rody would also appear publicly.\nAlthough Rody did not like this kind of activities among the nobles, he had to be patient in order to gradually reveal his relationship with Nicole.\nWhen he entered Nicole’s room, he saw Nicole lost in thought as she looked at the ceremonial clothes on the bed. When she saw Rody walk in, she came forward. She smiled and said, \"Why are you so late? I am choosing the clothes for you to wear.\"\nNicole laughed and said, \"I know you do not like it but… You just have to be patient even if it is just for me. After tonight, you can pursue me as Rody. After that, we can be together and then…\"\nRody nodded and gently hugged Nicole. \"Let us go step by step... Today, I...\" Rody then made a strange face as he thought to himself. After that, he became determined and said, \"Nicole. I have something to say to you.\"\nNicole finally noticed that Rody’s expression was different from the usual. She sat down slowly and asked, \"What’s wrong?\"\nRody took a deep breath. Looking at Nicole’s concerned face, he felt guilty. He then thought about Myka's deep love and he gritted his teeth. He took a deep breath and said, \"Do you remember the time I had just started masquerading as your brother… the day you sent me back to the Imperial Academy?\"\nNicole laughed and said, \"Of course! I remember that you were very reluctant and I had to force you to go... Do you remember … At that time, I was still your master!\"\nRody then told the story of how he met Bayan, how Bayan brought him to a brothel and how he met Myka.\nNicole’s face changed slowly as she whispered, \"Was it the day you fought against the guard that belonged to Prince Sultan, the Great Moon Kingdom's envoy?\"\nNicole’s face gradually turned pale and her body trembled. She bit her lips quietly as she listened to Rody’s story.\nWhen Rody finished, Nicole trembled and asked, \"Then, why are you telling me this?\"\nRody saw that Nicole was gently trembling and quickly held her. He then whispered, \"Nicole. I know I am originally just a commoner warrior. You were the one who brought me onto this magnificent stage and also my first love. No matter what, my feelings for you would not change. But… I also cannot abandon Myka. Right now I…\" Rody gave a bitter laugh and said, \"I feel like a scoundrel.\"\nNicole was silent for a moment. She sighed and slowly whispered, \"You are not a scoundrel.\" She then looked at Rody with a complicated gaze and whispered, \"Can you let me think about this for a while?\"\nRody became scared and tightly hugged Nicole. \"What are you thinking of? Do you want to leave me? That is impossible!\"\nNicole looked as if she had tears in her eyes as she shook her head. She laughed with a bit of agony as she said, \"Leave you? How am I supposed to leave you? Do I even have a choice? Can you just let me think for a while? Rody. Right now, I do not know anything and don't ask me anything. Just let me think for a while.\"\nRody gritted his teeth and said, \"No. I won’t leave. I will stay here and watch you.\"\nNicole laughed and replied, \"Watch me? Are you afraid that I would run away? Are you afraid that I would disappear?\"\nRody nodded and whispered, \"Yes! The way you look right now… I am afraid that you would just disappear!\"\nNicole held the ring in her hand. She then smiled and said, \"I always see this hanging on your chest. I believe there should also be an ‘interesting’ story about it too...\"\nRody sighed. That ring was originally a gift from Muse, the Black Veil Saint. He was at a loss and could not help but hold Nicole’s hand. He then whispered, \"You knew it earlier?\"\nNicole nodded but then she immediately shook her head and smiled, \"It crossed my mind… Did you know? Women are usually very sensitive. I have long realized that this was always hanging around your neck. I also know that you are becoming more powerful and becoming more respected. The women at your side would definitely not just be me alone... I grew up in the circle of nobles and have already seen this kind of thing many times.\"\nRody was disconcerted. He quickly and loudly replied, \"No! This is not what you think… I…\"\nNicole laughed bitterly and looked at Rody with tender eyes. She softly said, \"I understand. You do not have to say anything. I really understand. I know you. I also know that you are different from that person… But…\" Her eyes turned red as she continued, \"In the end, I am a woman. I am not able to dismiss it.\"\nRody then held Nicole’s hand with one hand and hugged her with the other. He then told her about how he got the ring. Once again, Nicole remained silent as she listened to Rody.\nHowever, this time Nicole showed a worried expression. She did not blame Rody but she still whispered, \"This is problematic. After all, Muse is from the Roland Continent. Do you intend to look for her in the Roland Continent?\"\nRody shook his head and whispered, \"I do not know… However, I know that I will go and find her. My relationship with her, with you and with Myka are all different. She did not say anything to me. Neither did I say anything to her. However, I will definitely go to the Roland Continent once. No matter what, I will definitely go and see her once.\"\nNicole sighed softly and murmured, \"You. I really do not know what to say to you… Rody. There are times when your heart is hard. However, sometimes it is too soft.\"\nThey no longer said anything. Rody continued to hold Nicole in fear that she might fly away. On the other hand, Nicole slowly closed her eyes. Her face was calm as if she was already asleep but sparkling tears flowed from the corner of her eyes."

眼看淡月舞站在了门口，相拥的一对男女迅速分开。 缪歌面色绯红，却依然大着胆子靠在罗迪的身上。
这话说出来，两人都是有些尴尬，好在淡月舞却没有追问下去。 好看看看罗迪和缪歌，自已也是脸色微红——只看缪歌满脸戏晕，秀发凌乱，若是还想不出刚才两人在干什么，淡月舞干脆一头撞死算了！
清了清嗓子，淡月舞低声道：“我，嗯……我也不想现在来打搅你们，只是刚才达克也见到罗迪了，罗迪的身份么，我和缪歌是知道的，等会儿达克回来之后，该怎么告诉他，还是一个问题。 所以……所以我就只好赶回来了，你们两个人可不要偷偷的在心中骂我！”
罗迪皱眉想了想，正色道：“这件事情达克自然是要知道的。 今后不少事情，我还需要他的帮助……唉，这件事情虽然牵扯太多，但是我现在身边能依靠的帮手太少，达克的为人我自然是放心的，只是怎么和他说，还要找个合适的时间。”
淡月舞点点头，大声道：“好了，我要问的事情问完了！ 你们……你们继续就是了！
她脸色绯红，就要转身出去。 缪歌却忽然站了起来。 几步走到她的身旁，一把拉住了淡月舞地手，微笑道：“你跑什么！
罗迪面色尴尬，站了起来，讪讪道：“我一会儿还要回军营，这里也不能待太长时间……嗯，你们在西丘就住在这里吧，这个地方看上去也很僻静。”
淡月舞瞪了罗迪一眼，忽然大声道：“你就让缪歌住在这里么？ 难道你不带她回去？
淡月舞却横了罗迪一眼：“军营之中不能住女人，那公爵府的别院呢？”
罗迪叹了口气，轻轻拉住了缪歌的手。 低声道：“我……我不知道怎么对你说。
缪歌微微一笑，面色平静，轻轻道：“我知道的，你不用多说。 我就在这里等着你。”
低声道：“我没有别的办法，只是现在我的身份牵扯了太多的人在里面，若是计划失败了，恐怕后果太过严重……缪歌，你能理解么？”
缪歌摇摇头，柔声道：“不管理解不理解，你说的话，我都相信。”
淡月舞忍不住轻轻咳嗽了一声，苦笑道：“你们真的当我是透明地了。
好了好了……我还是下去吧，不然的话。 就算你们心里不骂我，我自已都觉得有些无趣了。”
罗迪摇摇头，笑道：“我也要回去了，只是你们在西丘小心些，若是有事情，就到军营来找我……嗯……”他看了缪歌一眼，低声道：“在这里等我，我会来接你的。”
眼看罗迪离去，淡月舞看着缪歌恨恨道：“你就真的这么让他走了？ 你千山万水的跟着他跑来跑去，今天好不容易找到了，就这么简单的放他走了？”
罗迪没有回军营，直接去了公爵别院。 今晚西丘的本地官员将宴会迎接公爵一行人。
虽然对外宣布公爵大人无法出席，但是妮可小姐将作为公爵的代表出宴会——罗迪也将公开露面。
虽然不喜欢这种贵族圈子里的活动，但是为了渐渐的公开两人的关系，罗迪也只能忍耐了。
走进了妮可的房间，妮可正在看着摆放在床上地那些礼服出神，眼看罗迪走进来，妮可脸上露出颜迎了上去。 微笔道：“你怎么现在才来？
我正在给你挑选晚上的礼服呢。” 妮可微笑道：“我知道你有些不喜欢这种场合，但是……你就稍微忍耐一下吧，就算是为了我……过了今晚。
罗迪点点头，轻轻搂住了妮可，低声道：“事情总要一步步来吧……嗯，我今天……他脸上有些怪异，想了想，终于正色道：“妮可，我有些事情要对你说。”
妮可终于察觉了罗迪脸上的表情和平日想比有些异常。 心中一动，缓缓坐了下来，低声道：“你怎么了？”
罗迪深深吸了口气，看着妮可地脸上关切的表情，一时忍不住有些愧疚，但想到了缪歌的深情，终于咬了咬牙。 深深吸了口气，低声道：“你还记得我当初刚刚冒充你弟弟的时候……你把我送到了帝国学院的第一天么？”
妮可微微一笑：“当然记得，那天你一副不情愿的样子……还是我强行命令你去的……你记得么，当初我可是你的主人呢！”
随即罗迪将那天自己如何遇见了巴彦。 然后又如何被他们拉到销魂窟，又在销魂窟遇见了缪歌。
妮可脸色渐渐有些不自然了，低声道：“就是那天你在销魂窟打了大月王国的使者松赞王子地手下侍卫统领的那次么？”
妮可脸色渐渐有些苍白，身子也渐渐有些颤抖起来。 只是咬住嘴唇一言不发，静静听着罗迪的诉说。
罗迪看着怀中的人身子轻轻颤抖，赶紧用力将她抱住，低声道：“妮可，妮可，我知道的。
我原本不过是一个平民小武士。 你把我拉上了这个大舞台来，你是我最早爱上的女人，不管如何，我心中对你地心意不会变的。 只是……只是缪歌，我却也不可能扔下她不管……只是我现在……”罗迪忽然忍不住苦笑道：“我现在觉得自己好像个混蛋一样。”
妮可沉默了一会儿，缓缓叹了口气，低声道：“你不是混蛋。” 她目光复杂，看了罗迪一眼，低声道：“你，你让我想想好么？”
罗迪吓一跳，却紧紧搂住妮可，沉声道：“你想什么？ 难道想离开我？
妮可眼中似乎含着泪水，摇摇头，低声笑了笑，只是那笑容带着几分苦涩：“离开你么？ 我现在怎么离开你？
罗迪却咬牙道：“不行，我不出去，我就在这里，在这里看着你。”
妮可忍不住失笑道：“看着我？ 你怕我忽然跑了？ 消失了？”
罗迪却正色点了点头，低声道：“是的！ 你现在的这个样子……我真的怕你忽然就消失不见了！”
妮可摇摇头，柔声道：“我不会跑掉的……只是……只是你现在别逼我说什么了……唉，你让我好好想想吧。”
罗迪叹了口气，这枚戒指原本就是当初黑纱圣者缪斯所赠，他心中一时有些茫然，忍不住握住妮可的手，低声道：“你早就想到了？”
妮可点点头，却又立刻摇了摇头，苦笑道：“想是想到过……你知道么，女人地通常都是很敏感的，我早就发现了你总是挂着这个东西……唉，只是我知道，你实力越来越强大，地位也越来越尊崇，你身边的女人绝对不会只有我一个……我从小在贵族圈子里长大，这种事情我总是看得多了。”
妮可笑了笑，眼中柔情万种，柔声道：“我明白的，你不用说。
我真的明白的……我知道你的为人，知道你和那种人是不同的……只是，只是……”她眼眶渐渐红了，低声道：“只是我毕竟是女人，心中总是不能释怀。”
罗迪一手握着妮可的手，别外一只手将她揽在怀中，将这枚戒指的由来渐渐的说了出来。 和刚才一样，妮可一言不发，只是静静听罗迪说完。
只是这次妮可脸上终于露出了几分忧虑，她没有责怪罗迪，却反而低声道：“这可麻烦了，你的这个缪斯，她毕竟是罗兰大陆的人……难道，你还打算到罗兰大陆找她么？”
我和她之间，和你不同，和缪歌也不同。 她没有和我说过什么，我也没有和她说过什么……但我还是会去罗兰大陆一次，无论如何，我会去见她一面。” 妮可幽幽叹了口气，喃喃道：“你。
我真的不知道该说什么……罗迪，你的心有的时候很硬，但有的时候，又能太软了……太软了。”
罗迪只是紧紧抱住妮可，生怕自己一松手，妮可就会飞了消失了。 而妮可，则缓缓闭上了眼睛，脸上的表情平静。 仿佛已经沉睡，眼角却流出了晶莹的泪水。

When they saw Diane standing at the door, Rody and Myka quickly broke off their embrace. However, the red-faced Myka still bravely leaned on Rody.

Diane stared at Rody and loudly asked, "Are you going to let Myka just stay here? You are not taking her back with you?"

Myka shook her head and softly said, "It does not matter. I will believe whatever you say."
Rody looked at Myka and softly said, "I have truly caused you a lot of heartaches."
Diane coughed lightly when he saw the two lovers stare at each other and gave a wry smile. "The two of you really think I am transparent. Alright... I am going now. Even if you do not scold me, I will still feel out of place."
Rody shook his head. He then laughed and said, "I have to go back now. Be careful in West Hill. If you have any problems, look for me at the barracks." He then looked and Myka and said, "Wait here for me. I will come back for you."

Nicole laughed bitterly and looked at Rody with tender eyes. She softly said, "I understand. You do not have to say anything. I really understand. I know you. I also know that you are different from that person… But…" Her eyes turned red as she continued, "In the end, I am a woman. I am not able to dismiss it."
Rody then held Nicole’s hand with one hand and hugged her with the other. He then told her about how he got the ring. Once again, Nicole remained silent as she listened to Rody.
However, this time Nicole showed a worried expression. She did not blame Rody but she still whispered, "This is problematic. After all, Muse is from the Roland Continent. Do you intend to look for her in the Roland Continent?"
Rody shook his head and whispered, "I do not know… However, I know that I will go and find her. My relationship with her, with you and with Myka are all different. She did not say anything to me. Neither did I say anything to her. However, I will definitely go to the Roland Continent once. No matter what, I will definitely go and see her once."
Nicole sighed softly and murmured, "You. I really do not know what to say to you… Rody. There are times when your heart is hard. However, sometimes it is too soft."
They no longer said anything. Rody continued to hold Nicole in fear that she might fly away. On the other hand, Nicole slowly closed her eyes. Her face was calm as if she was already asleep but sparkling tears flowed from the corner of her eyes.

Moreover, its strength was stronger than before. It was unable to dodge this attack, and could only curl up its body, releasing its ink armor spikes!\nZhan Ye’s will to fight ranked second among Chu Mu’s soul pets. Even if it couldn’t dodge this attack, it still wanted the opponent to feel pain!\nIndeed, when the Mountain Devil Maggot knocked Zhan Ye flying, its body was pierced by the ink armor spikes. Poison quickly seeped into the area it had attacked Zhan Ye with, weakening its defense. “Beng”\nZhan Ye was knocked flying into the rock mountain like an arrow, creating an enormous pit there!\nThe Devil Tree Battle Soldier really had a team mentality when fighting. After Zhan Ye was knocked into the mountain rampart, it immediately created a few roots to pull it out of the hole.\nZhan Ye gave a roar, indicating for the Devil Tree Battle Soldier to fling it back.\nThe Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s roots pulled back, before launching Zhan Ye once more like an arrow towards the Mountain Devil Maggot which was a grade higher than it!\nHowever, after increasing in strength, Zhan Ye was no longer its opponent. After a few clashes, Zhan Ye’s body was riddled with festering wounds. The ink armor had practically been completely corroded by the poison.\nFortunately, Zhan Ye possessed six times the usual life force, and was able to fight an extended fight against the stronger Mountain Devil Maggot.\n“Zhan Ye, don’t fight it for now. Kill the weaker enemies first.” Chu Mu saw that the Mountain Devil Maggot was suppressing Zhan Ye and stopped them it from fighting the Mountain Devil maggot. After all, with such powerful attacks, even if Zhan Ye had six times the usual life force, the corrosive and poisonous attacks would quickly wear through this life force.\nZhan Ye dodged thee sharp claws, and borrowed the Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s roots to leave the fight with the Mountain Devil Maggot. It ran to the Ice Air Fairy’s battlefield, and helped it get rid of any enemies that could affect its chanting.\nSeeing Zhan Ye flee, the Mountain Devil Maggot opened its large mouth, and spat out poison as it began to laugh at its enemy!\nIt had been unable to defeat Zhan Ye, toyed with by Zhan Ye and even killed by Zhan Ye. But after reviving, its ancient strength had awakened, and it had risen a grade in strength. The enemy had been forced to retreat, making it very pleased!\n“Devil Tree, restrict it!”\nThe revived Mountain Devil Maggot was given to the Devil Tree Battle Soldier to handle. With fifth rank pavilion wood crystallization, its attacks were not weak. Even the large bodied Mountain Devil maggot would just become a target for the Devil Tree Battle Soldier.\nIn a group fight, there was no soul pet more at ease than the Devil Tree Battle Soldier. Enemies could attack it and its life force could drop as long as it was able to absorb life force to recover.\nThe Mountain Devil Maggot’s dozen meter long body unceasingly squirmed, as it attempted to sneak attack Chu Tianren’s ninth phase pseudo emperor. The Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s twenty roots immediately wrapped around its fat stomach and used force to rein it in!\n“Throw it. You won’t be able to strangle it to death.” Chu Mu said to the Devil Tree Battle Soldier.\nThe Devil Tree Battle Soldier changed its strength, and threw the peak monarch rank Mountain Devil Maggot forward. Immediately after, it released a hundred pavilion woot spikes at the Mountain Devil Maggot fifty meters away.\nThe Mountain Devil Maggot reacted very quickly. It curled up its body, and used the armor on its back to stop the pavilion wood spikes attack. Then, it fell back onto the ground, crushing several of its own species.\n“Devil Tree Battle Soldier, pay close attention to it. You just need to restrict it.” Chu Mu handed the task over.\nChu Mu was naturally stalling time by doing this. Each one of the multiple attempts by the peak monarch Mountain Devil Maggot to attack was neutralized, causing it to spit smelly poison in anger. It continued to stay at the edge of the Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s attack range, searching for a chance to attack it.\nFinally, the Mountain Devil Maggot found an opportunity, and its head full of eyes lit up with a savage glint. It was completely focused on the Devil Tree Battle Soldier. It took advantage of it attacking a group of Devil Maggots to suddenly transform into a stream of liquid towards the Devil Tree Battle Soldier.\nThe Devil Tree Battle Soldier couldn’t defend against it, and was bound by its hairs. For a moment, it was unable to move!\nThe Devil Tree Battle Soldier was primarily a group fighter. Being restricted like this, the pressure on the Ice Air Fairy would become much higher!\n“Chi!!!!!!!!” the Mountain Devil Maggot let out a malevolent shout that resembled a laugh. With a roar, suddenly several hundred Devil Maggots began to surge towards them from all directions!!\n“Chu Mu, can you deal with them?” Chu Tianren quickly realized that Chu Mu had fallen into danger and asked out of worry.\n\"Ya.” Chu Mu calmly nodded his head. His eyes swept over the powerful black figure rushing over!\nThe black figure crushed several tens of Devil Maggots under its feet as it ran. It berserkly appeared beside the peak monarch rank Mountain Devil Maggot!\n“Bloodthirsty Berserk Transformation!” The sturdy black figure became shrouded by a bloody mist, and its four limbs instantly grew stronger!\n“Hou hou!!!!!!!” Zhan Ye let out a thunderous roar. Its black claws flashed with a cold light. Instantly, the claws transformed into half-moon sickles that chopped at the peak monarch!\n“Puchi puchi puchi” Fluid began to spurt out. The peak monarch rank Mountain Devil Maggot was hit squarely in the middle. Its life force instantly dropped to the lowest point. It painfully struggled a few times before finally dying.\n“Pu” the Mountain Devil Maggot, as it faced death, turned its head full of eyes at Zhan Ye.\nIn truth, when the Warbeast Mo Ye had charged at it, the Mountain Devil Maggot had detected this. However, it chose to attack the Devil Tree Battle Soldier instead, ignoring Zhan Ye because it was weaker than it.\nHowever, even until death, the Mountain Devil Maggot was confused as to how it was instakilled by an opponent weaker than it!\n“Stupid creature. Do you think you’re the only one that can increase in strength?” Chu Mu coldly laughed as he swept his eyes over the dead peak monarch Mountain Devil Monarch.\nChu Mu intentionally had the Devil Tree Battle Soldier stall the Mountain Devil Maggot to give Zhan Ye time to increase its strength. For the sake of this, Zhan Ye had used two Broken Limb Rebirths and had raised its strength by another level under the Brave Stinging Heart.\nAfter the strength increase, Chu Mu had Zhan Ye use Bloodthirsty Berserk Transformation and Horned Beast Imprint to instakill the Mountain Devil Maggot with weak defense!\n“Your little Mo Ye is formidable. As a high class monarch, it was able to kill a peak monarch which was further strengthened by a level. If you’re able to further strengthen it, it’ll be a great soul pet!” Chu Tianren was very adept at controlling his soul pets, and thus was able to keep an eye on Chu Mu’s fight the whole time.\nChu Mu obviously knew that Zhan Ye’s potential was limitless. If he was able to obtain an ancient awakening ability like the Mountain Devil Maggot’s, then Zhan Ye would truly become undefeatable!\nChu Mu was about to say something when Chu Tianren’s ninth phase ice emperor suddenly used an emperor technique. He saw a huge amounts of ice fly forth, beautifully glistening. They resembled thousands of ice crystal arrows flying towards a target, drawing an arc in the sky!\nIt didn’t have to focus particularly much and was able to hit all the targets. The dense cluster of Heavenly Devil Insects in the air were struck. Their corpses began to fall from the sky like rain, smashing into smithereens when they landed on the mountain, rocks and the pathway!\nThis attack had instakilled countless Heavenly Devil Insects, causing their number to greatly decrease.\nIn terms of techniques, this emperor rank technique was much stronger than the Ice Air Fairy’s techniques. The Ice Air Fairy was not able to kill nearly a thousand Heavenly Devil Insects with one attack.\nCorpses of Heavenly Devil Insects now filled the intersecting pathways. Everywhere Chu Mu and his soul pets went, they would step on corpses.\nAs the fight continued, gradually the numbers began to wane. Chu Mu and Chu Tianren didn’t continue to stay there, and continued down the narrow path, killing their way towards the hidden spirit source.\n“Young master, it’s ahead. It should be in some small cave. This place should be very close to the center of the tribe. It’s very likely that you’ll be met by a huge legion of Devil Maggots and Heavenly Devil Insects. Even a pseudo monarch could appear.” Old Li warned Chu Mu.\n“You go look for the exact location of spirit source,” said Chu Mu.\nAfter speaking, Chu Mu then warned Chu Tianren. Chu Tianren was a bold person. Even though they were in the middle of a bug valley, he still very casually sat on a rock and nibbled on a fresh strip of grass. He perfunctly said: “You attract the firepower and I’ll go ahead to see if that Heavenly Devil Insect Emperor appears. If it dares linger nearby, I’ll get my low class emperor to instakill it. This way, we’ll be able to earn 2000 spirits quicker. Then I’ll come back and help you. At that point, you need to quickly take the spirit source, and then we’ll immediately leave.”\n“Your low class emperor is a demon?” Chu Mu asked. Until now, Chu Mu had yet to see his low class emperor.\nChu Tianren gave a mysterious smile. He recalled his three secondary pets. Riding on a demon, he then quietly moved deeper into the valley. He was probably going to look for a good ambush spot.\nIf a pseudo monarch were to encounter a low class emperor, it would definitely be instakilled. If Chu Tianren’s low class emperor was a demon type soul pet, with its powerful restricting abilities, it would be difficult for that Heavenly Devil Insect to escape its death!\n“Young master, come with me. We’re nearly there!” once Chu Tianren left, Old Li appeared. He ran ahead of Chu Mu on his short legs, guiding Chu Mu.\nChu Mu recalled Zhan Ye which had already used Broken Limb Rebirth five times and summoned the small Mo Xie. This was to take precautions against the potential of some guardian creature at the hidden spirit source."

第665章
楚暮能够明显感觉得到，那岐山魔蛆的实力整整提升了一个档次！
岐山魔蛆咆哮一声，迈开毁山灭石的身躯，狠狠的撞向了毫无防备的战也！
战也又哪里料得到杀死的敌人会忽然苏醒过来，而且力量变得更加强大，眼见无法做出闪躲，更是身体抱缩在一起，浑身墨铠刺释放出来！
战也的战斗意识是楚暮魂宠中排行第二，就算是面对无法闪躲的攻击，也要让对手痛上一痛！
果然，实力大增的岐山魔蛆撞飞战也的同时，身上也被无视防御的墨铠刺给刺穿，毒素很快就注入到了它攻击战也的身体部位，腐蚀着它那脆弱的防御。
战也像箭矢一样笔直的被撞飞在了岩山上，砸出了一个硕大的坑dòng！
魔树战士也很有团队作战意识，战也刚陷入到山壁上之后，立刻就延生出了一条根须，将战也从坑dòng之中扯出来。
战也也是咆哮一声，示意魔树战士将其甩出去。
魔树战士根扯出，战也再次化为了箭矢，朝着实力提升了一个档次的岐山魔蛆杀去！
只是，岐山魔蛆实力提升了一个档次之后，战也便不是其对手了，几番纠缠之后，战也身上也多了很多溃烂的伤口，墨铠几乎被毒素腐蚀了个干净。
所幸战也拥有六倍的生命力，还能够和实力比自己强一个档次的岐山魔蛆打一阵子持续久战。
楚暮见战也处处受到岐山魔蛆压制，便没有让战也再与岐山魔蛆战斗，毕竟岐山魔蛆的攻击xìng非常强，就算战也生命力拥有六倍，经过腐液、髯须、毒刺的持续攻击，六倍生命很快就会被消耗。
战也避其锋芒，借助魔树战士根须，很快躲开了岐山魔蛆的纠缠，奔跑到了冰空jīng灵的战场，帮助冰空jīng灵解决那些可能对它的yín唱咒语造成影响的敌人。
岐山魔蛆见战也居然逃了，顿时咧开了那大嘴，喷出了一股毒气，像是在大声嘲笑敌人！
这岐山魔蛆之前度不如战也，被战也不断的戏谑，还被杀死了一次，现在重生之后，古力复苏，实力整整提升一个档次，敌人被自己震退，岐山魔蛆自然变得几分洋洋得意！
“魔树，限制它！”
重生过一次的岐山魔蛆楚暮也是jiāo给了魔树战士，魔树战士拥有第五等级的轩木系结晶，攻击xìng同样不弱，像岐山魔蛆这样大身躯，简直就是魔树战士的ròu靶子！
群战中，没有什么魂宠比魔树战士更加安逸，任由敌人攻击，生命力骤降之时，只要生命shǔn吸，很快又恢复过来。
岐山魔蛆十几米身躯，不断的蠕动着，试图偷袭楚天仁的九段准帝皇，魔树战士二十根根须立刻缠绕住它的féi硕的肚子，加强了勒力！
“甩它出去，勒不死它。” 楚暮对魔树战士说道。
魔树战士转变了力量，将巅峰君主级的岐山魔蛆给扔了出去，顺便释放了一百多根轩木刺，尾随着被甩到五十多米高的岐山魔蛆。
岐山魔蛆反应很快，蜷缩起来，用背部那一点点铠甲抵挡了轩木刺的攻击，然后厚重的落在山道上，砸倒了很多同族。
“魔树战士，你重点照顾它，只要限制它。” 楚暮特意jiāo代道。
楚暮这样做自然是在拖延时间，而巅峰君主级的岐山魔蛆多次试图攻击都被化解，更是愤怒的喷着难闻的毒气，不断徘徊在魔树战士的攻击范围周围，寻找攻击魔树战士的机会。
！” 终于，岐山魔蛆找到了机会，满脑袋的眼睛顿时凶光毕lù，全部锁定了魔树战士，乘着魔树战士在攻击一群魔蛆的时候忽然加，化为了一股极流过的液体，朝着魔树战士冲去。
魔树战士已经难以防备，被其髯须困住，一时间根本无法动弹！
魔树战士可是群战主力，这样一被限制，冰空jīng灵的压力也会变大很多！
！” 岐山魔蛆出狞笑一般的叫声，吼声之下，顿时数百只魔蛆从四面八方涌来！ ！
“楚暮，你能应付？” 楚天仁很快就察觉到了楚暮陷入了危机之中，急忙问了一句。
楚暮冷静的点了点头，目光瞥了一眼一道极奔逐的力量黑影！
黑sè的身影奔跑的过程中连续踩踏了数十只魔蛆，狂暴的出现在了巅峰君主级的岐山魔蛆身旁！
黑sè健壮的身影在奔逐过程中立刻被一层血雾所笼罩，四肢的力量立刻变得更强！
战也一声雷霆咆哮，黑sè的爪子闪烁起了一道冷月寒光，瞬间化为了弯月镰刀，从巅峰君主级的抹去身上狠狠的斩过！
浆液喷出，这一次巅峰君主级的岐山魔蛆直接被拦腰切断，生命气息瞬间降到最低，几经痛苦的挣扎之后，才终于彻彻底底的死去。
“嗤”临死前岐山魔蛆的满脑袋眼睛斜盯着战也。
事实上这战兽墨也扑来的时候，岐山魔蛆已经察觉到了，但是，岐山魔蛆选择了强杀魔树战士，无视实力比自己弱的战也。
只是，让这岐山魔蛆到死都还是带着míhuò不解，自己居然被实力比自己弱的敌人一击必杀了！
“蠢东西，就你会提升实力？” 楚暮冷淡一笑，扫了一眼被杀死的巅峰君主级岐山魔蛆。
楚暮让魔树战士故意拖延岐山魔蛆的时间，就是要给战也足够提升实力的时间，为此楚暮也不惜让战也使用了两次断肢重生，在勇蜇之心下提升了一个档次。
实力提升一个档次之后，楚暮又让战也施展开嗜血狂化和甲兽印记，两种效果的叠加，防御力本就低的岐山魔蛆肯定是要被秒杀！
“你这小墨也，彪悍啊，从高等君主到足以杀死提升了一档次的巅峰君主，要是能够再强化起来，可是一挑几的好手啊！” 楚天仁对魂宠的cào纵随心应收，居然始终都留心楚暮的战斗。
楚暮当然清楚，战也的潜力是无穷，若是能够得到像岐山魔蛆的古力复苏，那么战也就真的无敌了！
楚暮正要说话，忽然楚天恒的九段冰帝皇施展开帝皇技能，只见一大片冰块飞shè，璀璨华丽，宛如数千道冰晶箭矢以某个点为中心，朝着天空中弧面四散！
完全不需要刻意的就瞄准，天空中密密麻麻的天魔虫军团纷纷被击中，霎时，天魔虫的尸体像是倾盆大雨，从空中洒落下来，在狭道、山壁、岩石上摔得粉碎！
这一击，数不尽的天魔虫被秒杀，这些黑压压一片的天魔虫明显稀疏了很多。
技能上，这帝皇冰系技能可要比冰空jīng灵的技能强不少，冰空jīng灵可无法做到一次xìng秒杀近千只天魔虫的程度。
天魔虫尸体下落，已经堆满了这个峡谷jiāo叉位置，楚暮和众多魂宠都是踩在尸体上战斗。
随着战斗的持续，渐渐的天魔虫和魔蛆的数量都明显减少，楚暮和楚天仁也是没有再继续逗留，顺着狭道杀入了隐藏着灵源的封谷。
“少主，就在前面了，应该是在某个小dòngxùe内，这里非常接近这个部落的中央位置，很可能是会遭来更庞大的魔蛆军团和天魔虫军团，甚至准帝皇都会出手。” 狸老儿提醒了楚暮一句。
“你去找到灵源具体位置。” 楚暮说道。
说完楚暮提醒了楚天仁一句，楚天仁艺高人胆大，现在身陷虫谷之中，却还是一副很随意模样的坐在一处岩石上，嘴里不知嚼着什么香草，含糊的说道：“你吸引火力，我躲在前面的位置，看看那天魔虫帝皇会不会出来，如果它敢在这附近徘徊，我让我的低等帝皇找机会秒杀它，这样我们2000灵到手就更快一些，然后我会支援你，你快拿下所有灵源，我们就马上离开。”
“你的低等帝皇是妖灵？” 楚暮顺口问了一句。
楚天仁故作神秘的一笑，收起了3只次宠，驾驭着其中一只妖灵，悄然的朝着更深处某个位置移动，应该是去寻找一个很好的伏击地点。
准帝皇若是正面遇到低等帝皇，肯定是要被秒杀，若楚天仁的低等帝皇是妖灵系魂宠，强大的限制技能施展，那天魔虫帝皇绝对难逃一死了！
“少主，跟我来，很快就到了！” 楚天仁一离开，狸老儿便现身了，迈着短tuǐ跑在了楚暮的前面，给楚暮引路。
楚暮收起了已经5次断肢重生的战也，将小莫邪召唤出来，防止隐藏灵源中又某些守护生物存在。

Chapter 665: Heavenly Devil Insect, Devil Maggot Legion
Chu Mu could feel that this Mountain Devil Maggot’s strength had raised by another grade!
The Mountain Devil Maggot let out a cry, and its body capable of destroying mountains slammed into the defenseless Zhan Ye!
Zhan Ye never expected for the opponent it had killed to suddenly revive. Moreover, its strength was stronger than before. It was unable to dodge this attack, and could only curl up its body, releasing its ink armor spikes!
Zhan Ye’s will to fight ranked second among Chu Mu’s soul pets. Even if it couldn’t dodge this attack, it still wanted the opponent to feel pain!
Indeed, when the Mountain Devil Maggot knocked Zhan Ye flying, its body was pierced by the ink armor spikes. Poison quickly seeped into the area it had attacked Zhan Ye with, weakening its defense. “Beng”
Zhan Ye was knocked flying into the rock mountain like an arrow, creating an enormous pit there!
The Devil Tree Battle Soldier really had a team mentality when fighting. After Zhan Ye was knocked into the mountain rampart, it immediately created a few roots to pull it out of the hole.
Zhan Ye gave a roar, indicating for the Devil Tree Battle Soldier to fling it back.
The Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s roots pulled back, before launching Zhan Ye once more like an arrow towards the Mountain Devil Maggot which was a grade higher than it!
However, after increasing in strength, Zhan Ye was no longer its opponent. After a few clashes, Zhan Ye’s body was riddled with festering wounds. The ink armor had practically been completely corroded by the poison.
Fortunately, Zhan Ye possessed six times the usual life force, and was able to fight an extended fight against the stronger Mountain Devil Maggot.
“Zhan Ye, don’t fight it for now. Kill the weaker enemies first.” Chu Mu saw that the Mountain Devil Maggot was suppressing Zhan Ye and stopped them it from fighting the Mountain Devil maggot. After all, with such powerful attacks, even if Zhan Ye had six times the usual life force, the corrosive and poisonous attacks would quickly wear through this life force.
Zhan Ye dodged thee sharp claws, and borrowed the Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s roots to leave the fight with the Mountain Devil Maggot. It ran to the Ice Air Fairy’s battlefield, and helped it get rid of any enemies that could affect its chanting.
Seeing Zhan Ye flee, the Mountain Devil Maggot opened its large mouth, and spat out poison as it began to laugh at its enemy!
It had been unable to defeat Zhan Ye, toyed with by Zhan Ye and even killed by Zhan Ye. But after reviving, its ancient strength had awakened, and it had risen a grade in strength. The enemy had been forced to retreat, making it very pleased!
“Devil Tree, restrict it!”
The revived Mountain Devil Maggot was given to the Devil Tree Battle Soldier to handle. With fifth rank pavilion wood crystallization, its attacks were not weak. Even the large bodied Mountain Devil maggot would just become a target for the Devil Tree Battle Soldier.
In a group fight, there was no soul pet more at ease than the Devil Tree Battle Soldier. Enemies could attack it and its life force could drop as long as it was able to absorb life force to recover.
The Mountain Devil Maggot’s dozen meter long body unceasingly squirmed, as it attempted to sneak attack Chu Tianren’s ninth phase pseudo emperor. The Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s twenty roots immediately wrapped around its fat stomach and used force to rein it in!
“Throw it. You won’t be able to strangle it to death.” Chu Mu said to the Devil Tree Battle Soldier.
The Devil Tree Battle Soldier changed its strength, and threw the peak monarch rank Mountain Devil Maggot forward. Immediately after, it released a hundred pavilion woot spikes at the Mountain Devil Maggot fifty meters away.
The Mountain Devil Maggot reacted very quickly. It curled up its body, and used the armor on its back to stop the pavilion wood spikes attack. Then, it fell back onto the ground, crushing several of its own species.
“Devil Tree Battle Soldier, pay close attention to it. You just need to restrict it.” Chu Mu handed the task over.
Chu Mu was naturally stalling time by doing this. Each one of the multiple attempts by the peak monarch Mountain Devil Maggot to attack was neutralized, causing it to spit smelly poison in anger. It continued to stay at the edge of the Devil Tree Battle Soldier’s attack range, searching for a chance to attack it.
Finally, the Mountain Devil Maggot found an opportunity, and its head full of eyes lit up with a savage glint. It was completely focused on the Devil Tree Battle Soldier. It took advantage of it attacking a group of Devil Maggots to suddenly transform into a stream of liquid towards the Devil Tree Battle Soldier.
The Devil Tree Battle Soldier couldn’t defend against it, and was bound by its hairs. For a moment, it was unable to move!
The Devil Tree Battle Soldier was primarily a group fighter. Being restricted like this, the pressure on the Ice Air Fairy would become much higher!
“Chi!!!!!!!!” the Mountain Devil Maggot let out a malevolent shout that resembled a laugh. With a roar, suddenly several hundred Devil Maggots began to surge towards them from all directions!!
“Chu Mu, can you deal with them?” Chu Tianren quickly realized that Chu Mu had fallen into danger and asked out of worry.
"Ya.” Chu Mu calmly nodded his head. His eyes swept over the powerful black figure rushing over!
The black figure crushed several tens of Devil Maggots under its feet as it ran. It berserkly appeared beside the peak monarch rank Mountain Devil Maggot!
“Bloodthirsty Berserk Transformation!” The sturdy black figure became shrouded by a bloody mist, and its four limbs instantly grew stronger!
“Hou hou!!!!!!!” Zhan Ye let out a thunderous roar. Its black claws flashed with a cold light. Instantly, the claws transformed into half-moon sickles that chopped at the peak monarch!
“Puchi puchi puchi” Fluid began to spurt out. The peak monarch rank Mountain Devil Maggot was hit squarely in the middle. Its life force instantly dropped to the lowest point. It painfully struggled a few times before finally dying.
“Pu” the Mountain Devil Maggot, as it faced death, turned its head full of eyes at Zhan Ye.
In truth, when the Warbeast Mo Ye had charged at it, the Mountain Devil Maggot had detected this. However, it chose to attack the Devil Tree Battle Soldier instead, ignoring Zhan Ye because it was weaker than it.
However, even until death, the Mountain Devil Maggot was confused as to how it was instakilled by an opponent weaker than it!
“Stupid creature. Do you think you’re the only one that can increase in strength?” Chu Mu coldly laughed as he swept his eyes over the dead peak monarch Mountain Devil Monarch.
Chu Mu intentionally had the Devil Tree Battle Soldier stall the Mountain Devil Maggot to give Zhan Ye time to increase its strength. For the sake of this, Zhan Ye had used two Broken Limb Rebirths and had raised its strength by another level under the Brave Stinging Heart.
After the strength increase, Chu Mu had Zhan Ye use Bloodthirsty Berserk Transformation and Horned Beast Imprint to instakill the Mountain Devil Maggot with weak defense!
“Your little Mo Ye is formidable. As a high class monarch, it was able to kill a peak monarch which was further strengthened by a level. If you’re able to further strengthen it, it’ll be a great soul pet!” Chu Tianren was very adept at controlling his soul pets, and thus was able to keep an eye on Chu Mu’s fight the whole time.
Chu Mu obviously knew that Zhan Ye’s potential was limitless. If he was able to obtain an ancient awakening ability like the Mountain Devil Maggot’s, then Zhan Ye would truly become undefeatable!
Chu Mu was about to say something when Chu Tianren’s ninth phase ice emperor suddenly used an emperor technique. He saw a huge amounts of ice fly forth, beautifully glistening. They resembled thousands of ice crystal arrows flying towards a target, drawing an arc in the sky!
It didn’t have to focus particularly much and was able to hit all the targets. The dense cluster of Heavenly Devil Insects in the air were struck. Their corpses began to fall from the sky like rain, smashing into smithereens when they landed on the mountain, rocks and the pathway!
This attack had instakilled countless Heavenly Devil Insects, causing their number to greatly decrease.
In terms of techniques, this emperor rank technique was much stronger than the Ice Air Fairy’s techniques. The Ice Air Fairy was not able to kill nearly a thousand Heavenly Devil Insects with one attack.
Corpses of Heavenly Devil Insects now filled the intersecting pathways. Everywhere Chu Mu and his soul pets went, they would step on corpses.
As the fight continued, gradually the numbers began to wane. Chu Mu and Chu Tianren didn’t continue to stay there, and continued down the narrow path, killing their way towards the hidden spirit source.
“Young master, it’s ahead. It should be in some small cave. This place should be very close to the center of the tribe. It’s very likely that you’ll be met by a huge legion of Devil Maggots and Heavenly Devil Insects. Even a pseudo monarch could appear.” Old Li warned Chu Mu.
“You go look for the exact location of spirit source,” said Chu Mu.
After speaking, Chu Mu then warned Chu Tianren. Chu Tianren was a bold person. Even though they were in the middle of a bug valley, he still very casually sat on a rock and nibbled on a fresh strip of grass. He perfunctly said: “You attract the firepower and I’ll go ahead to see if that Heavenly Devil Insect Emperor appears. If it dares linger nearby, I’ll get my low class emperor to instakill it. This way, we’ll be able to earn 2000 spirits quicker. Then I’ll come back and help you. At that point, you need to quickly take the spirit source, and then we’ll immediately leave.”
“Your low class emperor is a demon?” Chu Mu asked. Until now, Chu Mu had yet to see his low class emperor.
Chu Tianren gave a mysterious smile. He recalled his three secondary pets. Riding on a demon, he then quietly moved deeper into the valley. He was probably going to look for a good ambush spot.
If a pseudo monarch were to encounter a low class emperor, it would definitely be instakilled. If Chu Tianren’s low class emperor was a demon type soul pet, with its powerful restricting abilities, it would be difficult for that Heavenly Devil Insect to escape its death!
“Young master, come with me. We’re nearly there!” once Chu Tianren left, Old Li appeared. He ran ahead of Chu Mu on his short legs, guiding Chu Mu.
Chu Mu recalled Zhan Ye which had already used Broken Limb Rebirth five times and summoned the small Mo Xie. This was to take precautions against the potential of some guardian creature at the hidden spirit source.

Your future wife is from the Xiao family?” In his heart, he was thinking about why he did not know about this.\nLing Tian then sighed as he nodded, “Furthermore, she is the only little princess of the Xiao family. I heard that the lass is called Xiao YanXue and is also five this year.”\nMister Qin then did not know whether to laugh or cry as he replied, “You are both of the same age and you call her ‘lass’? You really like to brag.”\nLing Tian then giggled and asked, “What does Mister knows about the Xiao family?”\nMister Qin then replied with a proud smile, “With regard to the Xiao family, I am the right person for you to ask. Although I do not dare say that I know everything regarding the Xiao family, I know at least most of it. This old man and the Xiao family head have been good friends for many years.”\nLing Tian became interested as he walked to Mister Qin’s back and massaged him lightly. At the same time, he said, “Then will Mister please tell me about it?”\nMister Qin twiddled with his beard with satisfaction and said, “Mmm, on account of the fact that you are so filial, your teacher will explain to you the matters of the Xiao family.”\nLing Tian nodded and began to listen carefully.\n“The Xiao family has an extremely special existence in the whole continent. This family is not any weaker than the six great families in the world today. But the Xiao family is able to distance itself from the royal family and yet receive benefits from all of the different nations. Besides that, the Xiao family’s wealth is publicly recognized as the first in the world. Furthermore, it is publicly known that their wealth was slowly accumulated through ordinary business means and a result of many generations of hard work.”\nAs Ling Tian listened to this point, he could not help but sneer in his heart. Full of lies! This was the thought in Ling Tian’s heart. Able to become the world’s first without using any underhand means? This is something Ling Tian would never believe! Even in the earth where he stayed in his previous life, it is also impossible for one to achieve such heights only through honest means! Not to mention, this place which was still in the warring states with great chaos all over.\nHowever, Ling Tian did not say anything and silently listened to what Mister Qin had to say.\n“…the Xiao family head is called Xiao FengHan, great with skill and strategy. In the past, he roamed around the continent and was a life-and-death brother to your grandfather, Ling Zhan. Due to the fact that your grandfather had saved his life many times, the both of them were extremely close. Your pre-planned marriage was probably a doing of the both of them.”\n“The Xiao family had begun to change its main dealings 30 years ago from the civilian to the military industry. From then on, the Xiao family specialized in the dealings of armors and weapons. It was also from that time on when the Xiao family established its standing as the world’s wealthiest family!”\n“The wealth of the Xiao’s family can be easily explained with a single point. Currently, there are seven empires in the continent. Of the arms in the Star Falling Empire, Heaven’s Blessing Empire, Burning Phoenix Empire and our own empire, at least half of them were purchased from the Xiao family! As for the other three empires, there were at least 30 percent bought from the Xiao family.”\nLing Tian took in a cold breath! If he were to follow such calculations, the accumulation of wealth over the years would mean that the Xiao family was wealthier than the four great empires combined! Being this wealthy, they can literally do anything they want in this world! Even if they were to deal with a small empire, they would be able to settle anything with money!\nMoney can’t solve anything; this phrase does have its own logic! But if the amount of wealth reaches a stage where everyone in the world finds it to be frightening, then money is able to solve everything! There is nothing that such wealth would not be able to solve!\nThinking about this, Ling Tian began to conceive ideas in his head. It seems like that Xiao family must have contributed much for the Ling family to have its current standings! With such a strong alliance as an in-law, it is no surprise that the Ling family is still able to remain standing despite the adversities.\nHowever, the Xiao family was indeed extremely bold. They actually dared to give up on all other businesses and specialize in the dealings of armor and weapons, which is a big taboo of an industry! You have to know, this industry is something which every empire would covet after. If any of the seven empires in the continent absorbs the Xiao family, they would definitely have the capabilities to unite the whole continent! Such an attraction was something which no empire would be able to resist!\nSince Ling Tian was able to realize this fact, then everyone should be able to as well. But why was it such that no country had made its move until now?\nWith the delicate balance of power in the continent currently, any small movements would definitely create a huge storm. As long as a single party were to show signs of threat, all of the other empires would definitely gather to suppress that empire. However, this was not the main reason the different empires were staying silent! Unifying the continent was the dream of every ruler! In order to unify the continent, there would definitely be risks involved. But if they were able to completely eat up the Xiao family in a short time, the benefits they would reap would be worth much more than the risk they were taking.\nIf that’s the case, there was only a single reason left: The Xiao family definitely has a powerful military might which no one else knew to protect the safety of the Xiao family!\nAs he thought about that, Ling Tian could not help but ask in doubt, “Such a fat piece of meat, it can’t be that no one wants a piece of it right?”\nMister Qin then nodded his head in agreement, “Of course there are many people who want a piece of them. You have to know, there were 11 empires in this continent 25 years ago. But now, there are only seven left. The four empires which disappeared were the ones who wanted a piece of this meat.”\nLing Tian took in another cold breath, “Destroying four nations? Since the Xiao family possessed such strength, why did they not unify the continent themselves?”\nMister Qin nodded his head in reply, “It is not that they do not wish to unify the continent. It is because they are already the target of many powerhouses! If they were to take any action, it would also become their ending. Even the four empires from back then did not form an alliance to attack together. Instead, they fought individually. The Xiao family had only defended against a single wave of attacks from them. Following which, the other nations had attacked together to destroy them. Just from this point alone, it can be seen that while the Xiao family had the ability to protect itself, it was still far from unifying the continent.”\n“Besides that, it is said that the first leader of the Xiao family, Xiao ChengYun, was a reincarnated celestial. He was adept in divination with many peculiar abilities. Before he died, he had performed divination for the Xiao family and left behind a will: If the Xiao family were to continue with its business, the foundations of the Xiao family would not perish. But if it were to have any ambitions to unify the continent, the whole family would be wiped out for sure!”\nLing Tian then sneered and laughed, “Reincarnation of a celestial? Will of an ancestor? Divination? What a joke! Sir, do you really believe that?”\nMister Qin replied with a bitter laughter, “It doesn’t matter whether or not I believe it. In fact, it would not affect the present state of the continent even if no one in the continent believes it. But the key is that the Xiao family had always followed this will. Besides that, the Xiao family had always been doing their business peacefully without a single person of the Xiao family becoming a government official of any country. They had always been extremely peaceful, keeping to the will of their ancestors. Thus, despite how the various nations all covet after the Xiao family, they were extremely careful towards them, keeping this delicate state.”\nMister Qin’s face changed as he asked, “You, how did you deduce that?”\nLing Tian smiled slightly, his fair-looking face plastered a sweet looking smile. But in the eyes of Mister Qin, it was filled with a bone-piercing chill! He could not help but tremble for a moment!"

第三十一章
凌天嘻嘻一笑，突然正se说道：“我对师傅另有所求。”
秦大先生见他突然正经了起来，也不敢怠慢，说道：“讲。”
凌天道：“我要知道先生所能够知道的所有的萧家的资料。”
秦大先生一惊：“萧家？ 你那指腹为婚的媳妇是萧家的人？”
凌天叹了口气，点了点头：“而且是萧家目前唯一的一个小公主。 听说，小妮子叫做萧雁雪，今年也是五岁。”
秦大先生脸上露出啼笑皆非的神se：“你和人家同岁而已，你叫人家小妮子？ 真不怕风大闪了舌头。”
凌天嘿嘿一笑，问道：“先生对萧家知道多少？”
萧家的事情，我虽不能说事无巨细全部都知道，却也能知道十之七八。 老夫与萧家家主却也是多年相交的好友。”
凌天精神一振，迈开步子，走到秦大先生背后，极为乖巧的轻轻替他捶捶背，口中说道：“那就请先生说一说吧。”
秦大先生极为惬意的扬了扬脖子，道：“恩，看在你这番孝心的份上，为师就给你讲讲萧家的事情。”
凌天应了一声，竖起了耳朵。
“萧家，在这个大陆上是一个极为特殊的存在。 这个家族丝毫不逊于所谓的世界六大家族中任何一家，但是萧家却能够始终游离于皇权之外，并能够在各个国家之间左右逢源，应对自如。 另外，萧家的财力，乃是举世公认的天下第一。
这是凌天心中的想法。 能够完全不涉及就能够把生意做到天下第一？ 这事凌天第一个不相信！
不过凌天什么也没有说，静静的听着秦大先生讲了下去。
“…萧家现任家主名叫萧风寒，其人雄才大略，早些年曾游历大陆，与你爷爷凌战乃是八拜之交的生死兄弟。 盖因你爷爷曾多次救过他的性命，所以两个人相交莫逆。
“萧家的主要产业，从三十年前开始，便逐渐转民用为军用，萧家将一众普通的经商行业全部转手卖掉，从那时候起，专门做兵器盔甲的买卖，也就是从那时候起，萧家真正确立了财力天下第一的地位！”
“萧家的财力，只从一点你就可以知道。 目前，在这片大陆上的共是七个国家，其中本国。 落星国、天佑国、凤凰国，这四个国家军队的兵器盔甲，最少有一半是购自萧家的！
如果这么计算的话，长年累积下来，恐怕萧家的财力会是四大王国的总和之多！ 财富到了如此地步，已经在这个世界上无往而不利了！ 纵然是一个小国家，也已经到了能够用财富摆平的地步！
这句话是有道理的！ 但是如果金钱到达了一个令世界上所有人一起感到恐怖的地步，那么，金钱，就是万能的！ 没有任何事情是这样的财富做不到的！
无往而不利！ 想到了这里，凌天心中又开始打起了小主意：看来，凌家之所以有今天，萧家绝对功不可没！ 有这么一个强悍的盟友兼儿女亲家，无怪乎凌家会在如此凶险的局面下仍然屹立不倒了。
要知道这样的行业对任何一个国家来说都是一块馋涎欲滴的大肥肉。 大陆上七个国家，无论哪一个国家拥有消化了萧家的财力，都等于立时有了统一大陆的本钱！
这样的吸引力，无论对那个国家来说，都是不可抵抗的！ 但凌天随即想到：这个道理人人都懂，但是为何直到现在仍然没有一个国家付诸于行动呢？
但这并不是这些国家按兵不动的主要理由！ 一统天下，是每一个君王的梦想！
那么，就剩下了唯一的理由：萧家，绝对还有着不为外人所知的强横的武装力量！ 以此护卫萧家的安全。
想到这里，凌天不由疑惑的问道：“这样的大肥肉，难道就没有人想咬一口？”
秦大先生赞许的抚了一下他的头，道：“当然有，而且为数不少。 要知道，在二十五年之前，这片大陆上共有十一个国家，但是，现在，只有七个而已。 另外消失的四个国家，就是想要一口吞下这块肥肉的人。”
凌天再次冷气回收：“毁灭四个国家？ 萧家的势力既然如此雄厚，那他们为什么不直接争霸大陆？”
便是当年的四个国家也并不是联合一起行动，而是各自为战的。 萧家的势力只不过是挡住了他们第一波进攻而已，剩下的，就是其他各个国家群起而攻之。 所以，从这一点来说，萧家的势力自保或者有余，但说要争霸天下，恐怕还是远远不足的。”
“另外就是，听说萧家第一代家主萧乘云，是一位仙人转世，善观天象，有鬼神莫测之能，其人在临了之前，以大神通曾经为萧家卜过一卦，留下遗训，萧家经商为业可保基业世代不失，但若是野心膨胀，争霸天下的话，则全族皆死无葬身之地！”
凌天嗤的一声，终于笑了起来，乐不可支：“仙人转世？ 祖宗遗训？
先生，请问这话您信吗？” 秦大先生苦笑：“我信不信无关紧要，甚至大陆上所有人都不信也无关大局，关键是萧家一直以此为祖训，而且，百年来，萧家一直安心做生意，甚至从无一人到任何国家为官。 一直是安守本分，规规矩矩。
秦大先生骇然变se，“你，你从何如此推断？”
凌天微笑起来，稚嫩的脸上，甜甜的笑容，看在秦大先生眼里，却是寒意森森，冰凉入骨！ 忍不住打了个寒颤！

Chapter 31

If that’s the case, there was only a single reason left: The Xiao family definitely has a powerful military might which no one else knew to protect the safety of the Xiao family!
As he thought about that, Ling Tian could not help but ask in doubt, “Such a fat piece of meat, it can’t be that no one wants a piece of it right?”
Mister Qin then nodded his head in agreement, “Of course there are many people who want a piece of them. You have to know, there were 11 empires in this continent 25 years ago. But now, there are only seven left. The four empires which disappeared were the ones who wanted a piece of this meat.”
Ling Tian took in another cold breath, “Destroying four nations? Since the Xiao family possessed such strength, why did they not unify the continent themselves?”
Mister Qin nodded his head in reply, “It is not that they do not wish to unify the continent. It is because they are already the target of many powerhouses! If they were to take any action, it would also become their ending. Even the four empires from back then did not form an alliance to attack together. Instead, they fought individually. The Xiao family had only defended against a single wave of attacks from them. Following which, the other nations had attacked together to destroy them. Just from this point alone, it can be seen that while the Xiao family had the ability to protect itself, it was still far from unifying the continent.”
“Besides that, it is said that the first leader of the Xiao family, Xiao ChengYun, was a reincarnated celestial. He was adept in divination with many peculiar abilities. Before he died, he had performed divination for the Xiao family and left behind a will: If the Xiao family were to continue with its business, the foundations of the Xiao family would not perish. But if it were to have any ambitions to unify the continent, the whole family would be wiped out for sure!”
Ling Tian then sneered and laughed, “Reincarnation of a celestial? Will of an ancestor? Divination? What a joke! Sir, do you really believe that?”
Mister Qin replied with a bitter laughter, “It doesn’t matter whether or not I believe it. In fact, it would not affect the present state of the continent even if no one in the continent believes it. But the key is that the Xiao family had always followed this will. Besides that, the Xiao family had always been doing their business peacefully without a single person of the Xiao family becoming a government official of any country. They had always been extremely peaceful, keeping to the will of their ancestors. Thus, despite how the various nations all covet after the Xiao family, they were extremely careful towards them, keeping this delicate state.”
Mister Qin’s face changed as he asked, “You, how did you deduce that?”
Ling Tian smiled slightly, his fair-looking face plastered a sweet looking smile. But in the eyes of Mister Qin, it was filled with a bone-piercing chill! He could not help but tremble for a moment!

However, this time, a clear system announcement sounded out, signifying that the Warring Palace Skeleton had fallen for the last time, and had truly died.\nAt the same time, the light from levelling up appeared on Ling Chen and Xiao Hui’s bodies.\n“Ding… your pet “Holy Spirit Beast” has levelled up to LV18.”\nThe darkness aura, around the gigantic 30 metre or so long skeleton, began to dissipate, and Ling Chen could no longer feel the oppressive aura from its body. The Warring Palace Skeleton was now just a mass of gigantic bones, and would never rise again.\nCancer Orb and the Jadeite Jade- in just two days, he had found the two things that he needed the most, which allowed him to easily kill the gigantic skeleton even without Xi Ling’s help. Ling Chen let out a long sigh, and closed his eyes, silently saying in his mind, “Xi Ling, I’ve taken revenge for you. Now, no matter how small the chances are, I will go to the south to find the Guardian Beast Vermillion Bird of the legends…”\nWhen Celestial bosses died, they were bound to drop exquisite items, and Ling Chen was sure that the Warring Palace Skeleton was no exception. However, Ling Chen did not immediately go to the Warring Palace Skeleton’s bones to look for items, but rather turned his gaze to the semi-spirit girl floating in the air.\nThe semi-spirit girl had recovered from the effects of the Eyes of Eternal Darkness, and the first thing she had seen was the fallen Warring Palace Skeleton. Her illusory body floated down to the gigantic skeleton, and landed on its chest. As she floated down, Ling Chen could clearly see tear drops rolling down from her cheeks. “Don’t… die…”\nStanding on the giant skeleton, the young girl cried and howled. Her pitiful wailing was enough to make anyone feel sorry for her.\nLing Chen gave a slight sigh and turned around. He did not know of this girl’s background, and having only half a spirit, maybe she didn’t even know either. Her mentality was somewhat similar to that of a 3-year-old child’s, and she had stayed here with that giant skeleton day after day, year after year. All these years, the giant skeleton had been her only companion, her only support, and even her only family. Now, it had died, and the shock it caused to her was tremendous, despite the fact that she only had half a spirit. From now on, she would have to reside in solitariness in this Forest of Bones. The only thing that would accompany her would be the lifeless rabbit doll held in her arms.\nThe skeleton only had a last bit of its will, which was to protect the young girl at all costs… to them, Ling Chen was the vicious evildoer.\nLing Chen stood there in a daze for a while, listening to the young girl’s cries. Finally, he shook his head, and looked away from the girl, and prepared to collect the items the Warring Palace Skeleton had dropped.\nAs soon as he moved, the crying semi-spirit girl reacted like a scared rabbit, and shot up into the air. She looked at him, her eyes filled with fear.\nThis girl did not fear physical attacks, and Ling Chen did not have any magic attacks, so it was impossible for him to harm her. Her fear of him was completely unnecessary. However, it seemed that she did not know this. The skeleton that had just fallen was probably like a guardian or a father to her, so she probably harboured some fear and hatred towards Ling Chen.\nLing Chen decided not to look at her, and started looking around the skeleton for items. Suddenly, he saw the girl’s body become semi-transparent, then opaque again. This…\nVery soon, Ling Chen found that what he had just saw was not an illusion. After a few seconds, the semi-spirit girl’s body once again became semi-transparent, which allowed Ling Chen to even seen the scenery behind her. Ling Chen looked at her in shock- she would become semi-transparent every 2 seconds or so, and it seemed to become more frequent… then, at a certain point, would her body just disappear?\n“After the giant skeleton died, her Soul Sacrifice Contract with it was terminated. The illusory body she created from the contract will also disappear soon… then, this girl will become a true semi-spirit, a wandering soul.” Qi Yue slowly said, her voice tinted with a hint of sympathy. Compared to this poor girl, she was far better off. Ling Chen: “……”\n“Ai,” Ling Chen sighed, “Back then, when I completed the quest, I shouldn’t have come here.”\nBecause of him, the semi-spirit girl had lost everything… however, many people had also lost their lives because of her. Moreover, even more people in future could have died because of her. Although he potentially saved many people, Ling Chen still felt guilty about what he had done to this girl.\nScrew it, what’s the point of thinking so much? Ling Chen stopped looking at her, and walked towards the Warring Palace Skeleton’s body.\n“… Little master, quickly leave!! Leave immediately!!”\nJust as Ling Chen was about to pick up his first spoils of war, Qi Yue’s voice sounded out in his head. He did not hesitate, and immediately quickly ran away, while asking, “What’s wrong?”\nQi Yue replied, “The skeleton died, but the girl did not die. That means that the Soul Sacrifice Contract that the girl used on the skeleton was her first one. Because she can use it twice in her life, after the first contractee dies, the contract between them will vanish, and she is free to use it on another being… her illusory body is about to vanish, so she needs to find another being to use the contract on. The only being here that she can use the contract on is you!!”\nIf he was contracted by the Soul Sacrifice Contract, all damage taken by the girl would be transferred to him- this definitely wasn’t a good thing. If this happened, he would never be able to relax ever again. Although she was immune to physical attacks, there were many Magician profession players in the Mystic Moon world.\nAs such, Ling Chen’s speed increased to the max, and temporarily gave up on picking up the items from the Warring Palace Skeleton. After all, the items dropped from a Celestial boss would never disappear.\n“Not good, it’s too late.” Qi Yue said in a despondent voice.\n“What do you mean by ‘too late’?”\nJust as Ling Chen finished speaking, a dark light shot down from the sky and landed on his head. At that moment, a strange and unique feeling passed through his heart, which then immediately disappeared. A system announcement then rang out, almost causing Ling Chen to jump in shock.\n“Ding… you have been forced to undertake a ‘Soul Sacrifice Contract’ by ‘????’, all of the damage taken by ‘????’ will be transferred to you, until you die.”\n“Ding… because of your status as a player, the Soul Sacrifice Contract between you and ‘????’ has recognised ‘????’ as your humanoid pet. All of her damage will be transferred to you, and her level will always be equivalent yours. None of your EXP will be split with her. Unless you truly die, there is no way to terminate the contract. Please name your new pet.”\nLing Chen stopped walking, and his expression was one of extreme confusion. He turned around, and looked at the semi-spirit floating in the air. He didn’t know if he should cry… or if he should cry.\n“Well, I guess this was unavoidable. Soul Sacrifice Contracts are usually forced upon the contractee. Not only you, but even if a Moon Goddess came, they would be unable to resist either. That’s why back then there were so many people desperately looking for ways to attain the Soul Sacrifice Contract method.” Qi Yue explained.\nThe girl’s arms were crossed in front of her chest, and looked at him darkly with a sense of fear… she was afraid that Ling Chen would harm her, but was also afraid that her body would disappear. As such, she unhesitatingly used her second Soul Sacrifice Contract on Ling Chen… This girl had not matured yet, and did not think much of the consequences of her actions.\nA layer of cold sweat appeared on Ling Chen’s forehead. From now on, the damage taken by this girl would all be transferred to him… he was a player, so he could revive, but every time he died his level would be reset to 0!! This contract, which he had thought was pretty ridiculous the first time Qi Yue had mentioned it, had actually been used on him… and it was a contract that could not be rejected or terminated!\nGoddamit!! “What sort of damn contract is this!? If there were even more people who could use this contract, wouldn’t the entire world fall into chaos!!?” Ling Chen howled.\n“Eh, little master, do you really think that there are many people that can use this sort of terrifying contract? Although there have been many stories about this contract, it has only been seen once. Legends say that there are only two types of beings that can use this sort of contract. One of them are beings with ‘Godhood’.”\n“Godhood? You mean like a Moon Goddess?” Ling Chen asked.\n“Moon Goddess? Ha… although Moon Gods and Goddesses are called ‘Gods’, in essence they’re just ‘humans’ with special powers and supernatural strength. As for ‘Godhood’, it completely surpasses the ‘human’ level, and can dominate anything in the Mystic Moon world. Perhaps the only being that touched the boundaries of ‘Godhood’ was the Shura from ten thousand years ago. However, this girl can’t possibly have any ‘Godhood’. Otherwise, she would be able to completely destroy little master with just a flick of her finger.” Qi Yue said while smiling.\n“And the other type?”\n“The other type are beings with incredibly strong spirit. Legends say that the person who used the Soul Sacrifice Contract had a terrifying, unparalleled spirit power. However, this semi-spirit girl only has half a spirit, and evidently has weaker spirit than you, so she’s not this type either.”\n“Hehe, little master doesn’t have to think too much. These two sayings are only legends after all; no one knows if they’re true or not. However, this girl being able to use the Soul Sacrifice Contract makes even me feel shocked. Her background definitely isn’t simple.”"

第198章
之前汐灵以九阳天怒灭掉天绝级的战阙之骸后，没有得到任何的提示，然后战阙之骸重新站起，这次，耳边却是响动着清晰无比的提示音，证明着这次，战阙之骸是真的倒下了，彻底的灭亡。
与此同时，升级的光环浮现在凌尘和小灰的身上。
“叮……你的宠物‘天灵兽’等级升至18级。”
身前的巨大骸骨足有三十多米长，身上的灰暗气息在快速的消散，直至消散的无影无踪，让凌尘再也感受不到任何来自它的威压感。 现在的战阙之骸，已经彻底化作一摊没有意识的巨大骸骨，再也不可能站起来。
巨蟹珠、翡翠玉，两天之内，两个他最需要的东西被他得到，让他在没有汐灵的状态下依然轻松灭掉了这个巨大的骸骨。
仙灵级BOSS的倒下必然伴随着华丽的大爆，战阙之骸也当然不例外，凌尘并没有环绕战阙之骸的躯体寻找它掉落的东西，而是转移目光，看向了漂浮在空中的那个黑衣少女。
此时的黑衣少女已经从恒暝之目的反噬状态下恢复，她恢复后第一时间看到的，就是巨大骨骸的倒下。 她虚幻的身体的如被清风托着一般飘向了倒下的巨骸，然后落在了它的胸骨部位，在她飘动的过程中，凌尘清楚的看到一滴滴的泪水从空中滑落。
站在巨大骸骨的身上，少女哭泣着，在呜咽中释放着凄然到让人揪心的声音。
凌尘稍稍叹息了一声，转过身去。 他无法知道这个女孩的来历，只有一半灵魂的她，自己也一定不知道自己是谁，又来自哪里，心智上或许仅仅等同于一个两三岁的小孩子，只是本能的守在这她记忆中唯一的地方，rì复一rì，年复一年，已经不知在这里存在了多久，而这个巨大的骷髅是她唯一的伙伴，唯一的依赖，也可以说是唯一的亲人。 而现在它死了，这种打击任谁都无法承受，即使她是个心智如此苍白的半魂女孩。
这个骨骸之所以存在着最后的意识，显然是因为它在用自己的全部守护着这个少女……对他们来说，自己，才是最可恶的入侵者吧。
凌尘站在那里发呆了许久，听到的只有少女凄惨的哭泣声，终于，他晃了晃头，甩掉心中多余的怜悯，不再看向这个女孩，而是走了过去，准备捡起战阙之骸身上爆出的战利品。
而他这一动，哭泣中的少女顿时如一只受惊的小兔子，一下子从骸骨身上飞起，看向他的双目之中，盈.满着深深的恐惧。
这个女孩不惧怕任何物理攻击，凌尘没有任何的元素cāo纵能力，所以怎么都不可能伤害到她，所以，这个女孩完全没有畏惧他的必要。 只是显然，她并不知道这些。
凌尘只能选择沉默，不再看她，准备开始寻找战阙之骸爆出的东西，忽而，不知是不是错觉，他看到这个女孩的身体恍惚了一下，，一下子变成了半透明状态，然后又从半透明状态很快的恢复。
凌尘讶然的看着她，她的躯体虚幻状态大概每两秒就要出现一次，让她在虚虚实实中切换着，并且频率似乎越来越高……那么，在这种频率高到一定程度时，她的身体，会不会就完全消失？
她借助这只大骷髅所形成的虚体，也即将完全消失……然后，这个女孩就会变成纯粹的半灵魂状态，那时候，她就成为一个彻底的……孤魂野鬼了。” 凄月缓缓说道，声音中透着些许的惋惜。
“唉，”凌尘一阵唏嘘：“当初，我在完成任务后，真的不该踏入到这个地方。”
因为自己的进入，这个少女是因为他才失去一切……不过，也有太多的人因为她而死亡。 并且以后可能会越来越多的人因她而死。
算了，想那么多干嘛。 凌尘将目光移开，不再去看她。 走向战阙之骸的身体。
“……小主人快走！
就在凌尘即将捡起第一件战利品时，脑海中忽然响动起凄月的喊声，他心中一震，没有任何犹豫，以极快的速度向一个方向跑去，然后迅速问道：“怎么回事？”
凄月快速的说道：“大骷髅死了，而那个女孩却没有跟着消亡，说明那个女孩对大骷髅施加的‘祭灵契约’是她的第一次使用，因为一生只能用两次的祭灵契约，第一次使用后施加的被契约者死亡后，契约自动解除，第二次施加的被契约者灭亡后，契约者也会跟着消亡。
被施加祭灵契约后，这个女孩受到的所有伤害都将由他来承担，这绝对绝对不是什么好事，因为这种事一旦真的发生，他站着坐着躺着趴着都随时可能中枪，睡觉都别想安稳。 她虽然不惧怕任意的物理攻击，但这个大陆上能cāo纵魔法元素的生灵遍地都是。
所以听了凄月的讲述，凌尘远离的速度顿时又快了很多，不得不暂时放弃战阙之骸爆出的东西。
仙灵BOSS掉落的东西是不会消失的。 “不过，好像已经来不及了。”
“来不及了是什么意思？”
凌尘刚说完，眼睛便闪过一道暗淡的黑芒，那道黑sè的光芒似乎是从天而降，落在了他的头顶之上，顿时，一种难以形容的奇异感觉在他的心底一闪而过，但又马上消失，紧接而来的，是让凌尘差点没原地跳起来的提示音。
’今后所受到的所有伤害都将由你承担，等级与你恒相等，一起行动时不会分散你获得的经验值，除非你真正死亡，否则你不可以任何方式解除此契约。
请为你的新宠物命名。”
凌尘的脚步停了下来，脸上的表情jīng彩的一塌糊涂，他转过身，看向了那个漂浮在半空之中，身体已经不再虚幻的黑衣少女，一时之间不知是该哭……还是该哭。
“这也是没有办法的事，祭灵契约是强制xìng的，不要说是你，就算是月神来了，也无法抗拒。 这也是为什么当年那么多人都在疯狂寻找可以发动这种契约的方法。”
女孩的双手护在胸前，用一种yīn暗和恐惧的眼神看着他……她害怕凌尘会伤害她，也害怕自己的虚体完全消失，所以，她几乎是不需要考虑，就将这第二次的契约施加在了凌尘的身上……这不是一个有着成熟智慧的女孩子，不会想自己这么做会有怎样的后果。
凌尘的额头上浮起了一层冷汗，这个女孩以后受到的所有伤害都将落在他身上……他是玩家，死亡了也可以复活，但他死亡一次，等级可是要直接归零的！ ！
这种他第一次听凄月说起，就感觉坑爹到无穷大的契约，此刻居然落到了自己的身上……而且这种契约还是不能抗拒，不能解除！
“唔，小主人，你以为，这么可怕的契约，会是什么人都能使用的吗？ 纵观神月大陆的历史，关于这种契约的传说很多很久，但真正出现的，一共才只有一次。
“神格？ 是什么？
嘻……月神虽名为‘神’，但其本质，也不过是拥有着特殊体质，和极强力量的‘人’而已。 所谓的‘神格’，是真正超过‘人’之层次，成为凌驾于神月大陆所有生灵，碰触到‘真神’级别的资格，到今天为止，碰触过这种‘神格’的，大概也只有万年前的修罗了。
“那另一种呢？”
不过，这个女孩的灵魂才只剩下一半，刚才还妄想攻击你的jīng神，但被直接击败，所以，她更不会属于这种可能。”
“嘻，小主人不需要纠结的。 这两个可能毕竟只是传说而已，没有人知道是真是假的。 不过这个女孩能使用这种契约，让我，都惊讶的有些难以相信。

Chapter 198: Leng’Er (1)
Back when Xi Ling had used the Heavenly Wrath of the Nine Suns to annihilate the Heaven’s End grade Warring Palace Skeleton, there was no system announcement, and the Warring Palace Skeleton stood up again afterwards. However, this time, a clear system announcement sounded out, signifying that the Warring Palace Skeleton had fallen for the last time, and had truly died.
At the same time, the light from levelling up appeared on Ling Chen and Xiao Hui’s bodies.
“Ding… your pet “Holy Spirit Beast” has levelled up to LV18.”
The darkness aura, around the gigantic 30 metre or so long skeleton, began to dissipate, and Ling Chen could no longer feel the oppressive aura from its body. The Warring Palace Skeleton was now just a mass of gigantic bones, and would never rise again.
Cancer Orb and the Jadeite Jade- in just two days, he had found the two things that he needed the most, which allowed him to easily kill the gigantic skeleton even without Xi Ling’s help. Ling Chen let out a long sigh, and closed his eyes, silently saying in his mind, “Xi Ling, I’ve taken revenge for you. Now, no matter how small the chances are, I will go to the south to find the Guardian Beast Vermillion Bird of the legends…”
When Celestial bosses died, they were bound to drop exquisite items, and Ling Chen was sure that the Warring Palace Skeleton was no exception. However, Ling Chen did not immediately go to the Warring Palace Skeleton’s bones to look for items, but rather turned his gaze to the semi-spirit girl floating in the air.
The semi-spirit girl had recovered from the effects of the Eyes of Eternal Darkness, and the first thing she had seen was the fallen Warring Palace Skeleton. Her illusory body floated down to the gigantic skeleton, and landed on its chest. As she floated down, Ling Chen could clearly see tear drops rolling down from her cheeks. “Don’t… die…”

All these years, the giant skeleton had been her only companion, her only support, and even her only family. Now, it had died, and the shock it caused to her was tremendous, despite the fact that she only had half a spirit. From now on, she would have to reside in solitariness in this Forest of Bones. The only thing that would accompany her would be the lifeless rabbit doll held in her arms.
The skeleton only had a last bit of its will, which was to protect the young girl at all costs… to them, Ling Chen was the vicious evildoer.
Ling Chen stood there in a daze for a while, listening to the young girl’s cries. Finally, he shook his head, and looked away from the girl, and prepared to collect the items the Warring Palace Skeleton had dropped.

Screw it, what’s the point of thinking so much? Ling Chen stopped looking at her, and walked towards the Warring Palace Skeleton’s body.
“… Little master, quickly leave!! Leave immediately!!”
Just as Ling Chen was about to pick up his first spoils of war, Qi Yue’s voice sounded out in his head. He did not hesitate, and immediately quickly ran away, while asking, “What’s wrong?”
Qi Yue replied, “The skeleton died, but the girl did not die. That means that the Soul Sacrifice Contract that the girl used on the skeleton was her first one. Because she can use it twice in her life, after the first contractee dies, the contract between them will vanish, and she is free to use it on another being… her illusory body is about to vanish, so she needs to find another being to use the contract on. The only being here that she can use the contract on is you!!”
If he was contracted by the Soul Sacrifice Contract, all damage taken by the girl would be transferred to him- this definitely wasn’t a good thing. If this happened, he would never be able to relax ever again. Although she was immune to physical attacks, there were many Magician profession players in the Mystic Moon world.
As such, Ling Chen’s speed increased to the max, and temporarily gave up on picking up the items from the Warring Palace Skeleton. After all, the items dropped from a Celestial boss would never disappear.
“Not good, it’s too late.” Qi Yue said in a despondent voice.
“What do you mean by ‘too late’?”
Just as Ling Chen finished speaking, a dark light shot down from the sky and landed on his head. At that moment, a strange and unique feeling passed through his heart, which then immediately disappeared. A system announcement then rang out, almost causing Ling Chen to jump in shock.
“Ding… you have been forced to undertake a ‘Soul Sacrifice Contract’ by ‘????’, all of the damage taken by ‘????’ will be transferred to you, until you die.”
“Ding… because of your status as a player, the Soul Sacrifice Contract between you and ‘????’ has recognised ‘????’ as your humanoid pet. All of her damage will be transferred to you, and her level will always be equivalent yours. None of your EXP will be split with her. Unless you truly die, there is no way to terminate the contract. Please name your new pet.”
Ling Chen stopped walking, and his expression was one of extreme confusion. He turned around, and looked at the semi-spirit floating in the air. He didn’t know if he should cry… or if he should cry.
“Well, I guess this was unavoidable. Soul Sacrifice Contracts are usually forced upon the contractee. Not only you, but even if a Moon Goddess came, they would be unable to resist either. That’s why back then there were so many people desperately looking for ways to attain the Soul Sacrifice Contract method.” Qi Yue explained.
The girl’s arms were crossed in front of her chest, and looked at him darkly with a sense of fear… she was afraid that Ling Chen would harm her, but was also afraid that her body would disappear. As such, she unhesitatingly used her second Soul Sacrifice Contract on Ling Chen… This girl had not matured yet, and did not think much of the consequences of her actions.
A layer of cold sweat appeared on Ling Chen’s forehead. From now on, the damage taken by this girl would all be transferred to him… he was a player, so he could revive, but every time he died his level would be reset to 0!! This contract, which he had thought was pretty ridiculous the first time Qi Yue had mentioned it, had actually been used on him… and it was a contract that could not be rejected or terminated!
Goddamit!! “What sort of damn contract is this!? If there were even more people who could use this contract, wouldn’t the entire world fall into chaos!!?” Ling Chen howled.
“Eh, little master, do you really think that there are many people that can use this sort of terrifying contract? Although there have been many stories about this contract, it has only been seen once. Legends say that there are only two types of beings that can use this sort of contract. One of them are beings with ‘Godhood’.”
“Godhood? You mean like a Moon Goddess?” Ling Chen asked.
“Moon Goddess? Ha… although Moon Gods and Goddesses are called ‘Gods’, in essence they’re just ‘humans’ with special powers and supernatural strength. As for ‘Godhood’, it completely surpasses the ‘human’ level, and can dominate anything in the Mystic Moon world. Perhaps the only being that touched the boundaries of ‘Godhood’ was the Shura from ten thousand years ago. However, this girl can’t possibly have any ‘Godhood’. Otherwise, she would be able to completely destroy little master with just a flick of her finger.” Qi Yue said while smiling.
“And the other type?”
“The other type are beings with incredibly strong spirit. Legends say that the person who used the Soul Sacrifice Contract had a terrifying, unparalleled spirit power. However, this semi-spirit girl only has half a spirit, and evidently has weaker spirit than you, so she’s not this type either.”
“Hehe, little master doesn’t have to think too much. These two sayings are only legends after all; no one knows if they’re true or not. However, this girl being able to use the Soul Sacrifice Contract makes even me feel shocked. Her background definitely isn’t simple.”

"value": "Chapter 567 - Chords of Gods Once again\nWedding engagement is an important affair and it demands a lot of time and attention. It is a ceremonial occasion to show honor to the bride’s parents, and of course, a generous dowry is expected.\nAfter all, the Chen Family is an Aristocratic Family with a history spanning from the Middle Ages, respectable ancestry, and affluence. The family has eight clans, and each clan is further divided into 72 tribes; there are also countless family generals and servants. Needless to say, they are a big family.\nIt was difficult to estimate the number of families paying close attention to the marriage between Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen. Numerous people kept a watchful eye on whether Zhang Ruochen had prepared sufficient dowry and gifts. If Zhang Ruochen’s gifts were not adequate, the members of the Chen Family were ready to ridicule Huang Yanchen’s parents.\nZhang Ruochen dedicated his heart and soul into preparing for this marriage. He was very generous and made sure he prepared lavish dowries and gifts to be sent over to the bride’s family.\nKnowing that Zhang Ruochen was going to send the dowry and wedding gifts to the Chen Family, his friends and relatives gathered at Zhang Ruochen’s mansion to help decorate the bridal chamber and the mansion.\nSi Xingkong and Chang Qiqi, were first to arrive. They were two of Zhang Ruochen’s closest friends, and they have been that way throughout the time they were in Omen Ridge to Saint Academy.\nAlthough Zhang Ruochen far exceeded them in his level of cultivation, he did not have an air of arrogance around them. He personally went to the gates to welcome them the moment they arrived.\nZhang Ruochen saw Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi from afar and said, “Eldest brother apprentice and Elder brother apprentice Chang, how did you know I am going to present the bridal dowry and gifts to the Chen Family tomorrow? You know so much!”\nSi Xingkong had not changed much since the time he first came to the East Region Saint City. He is still as carefree as before, he carried a wine gourd on his waist and had a smile on his face.\nWhile he looked like an alcoholic, he possessed an air of calm and composure. He said, “First of all, we are brothers. Secondly, we all have left our faraway hometown to come to East Region Saint City in hopes of achieving our dreams. It is only right that we support and help each other. We have to come to help you out with your wedding.”\nLaughing, Chang Qiqi commented, “That’s right. Eldest brother apprentice and I may not be great help, but at least we are good at helping you carry your boxes of gifts. Are you rejecting our help, junior fellow apprentice?”\nZhang Ruochen knew that Chang Qiqi was just joking. He appreciates their sweet thoughts and sincerely said, “Thank you, my elder brothers apprentice.”\nSi Xingkong went to Zhang Ruochen’s side and whispered, “Don’t thank us, we should be the ones to thank you. We have received the Xuanwu Qi you sent to us through Miss Kong Xuan. Even eldest brother apprentice was at a loss for words; we are so grateful.”\n“From now on, no matter where and when, I, Si Xingkong will be there for you. You just have to say a word, and I will be there.”\nSi Xingkong said these words fervently and with firmness. He had a determined expression, almost as if he was taking a vow.\nChang Qiqi’s expression turned somber, and he said, “Count me in too.”\nBoth Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi are faithful and trustworthy friends. To have them vouch for their loyalty was definitely more valuable than 10 million Spiritual Crystals.\nA low voice rang from outside the gate, saying, “You guys sound so happy, what are you guys chatting about?”\n“Swosh!” A burly figure shuttled through the gate in a series of shadows.\nLei Jing walked down the stone steps with his hands behind his back and firm and steady footsteps in austere grandeur. Streaks of Holy Qi could be seen emanating from his pores.\nWith every step he took, the Spiritual Qi under his feet ripples outwards like water waves.\nZhang Ruochen, Si Xingkong, and Chang Qiqi immediately went forward to welcome him.\nAll you need is one glance at Lei Jing, and you could see into Lei Jing’s internal body. He has opened five holy meridians and reached the Eighth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm.\nHe was just a step away from cultivating the Glazed Treasured Body.\nZhang Ruochen clasped his hands together and bowed, “Greetings, Master.”\nSi Xingkong and Chang Qiqi simultaneously bowed in unison, saying, “Greetings, Master Lei .”\nLei Jing set his piercing eyes on Zhang Ruochen and nodded his head. His serious expression turned into a smile and he said, “Lad, now that you are a sword saint disciple, do you still have to address me as your master?”\n“A teacher for a day shall be a teacher for life,” said Zhang Ruochen.\nLei Jing was just joking with Zhang Ruochen. After all, he had also received the Xuanwu Qi sent by Zhang Ruochen, and he knew Zhang Ruochen was a dutiful child. He would never forget the grace he received.\nWith Xuanwu Qi, there was hope for Lei Jing to reach the Half-Saint realm in his lifetime.\nLei Jing’s expression turned grave. He said, “I just received news two days ago that Chords of God had appeared once again in the Battlefield of Primitive World.\nSi Xingkong was somewhat surprised and he said, “It hasn’t been long since junior fellow apprentice Zhang reached the Ultimate Realm of the Heaven Realm. Don’t tell me someone else did so as well?”\nZhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed and he asked, “Is it Di Yi?”\nLei Jing nodded and said, “It’s indeed Yi Di, the young master of Black Market Excellence Hall. People said that he has returned to Eastern Region, escorted by the Black Market Saints after he broke through the Ultimate Realm of the Heaven Realm. This is a bad news for you, Zhang Ruochen.”\nChang Qiqi snorted and said, “Did he dare cause trouble in the East Region Saint City?”\n“Not only is Di Yi a man of strategy and courage. He is a man who is capable of actually doing something,” said Si Xingkong.\nLei Jing started to worry, and he said, “Zhang Ruochen killed the Yellow God Emissary, captured Orange Star Emissary, and even the death of Green-robed Emissary was attributed to Ruochen.”\n“You can say Black Market Excellent Hall had lost all its honor to Zhang Ruochen. They wouldn’t call themselves the Black Market Excellence Hall if they weren’t going to come seeking revenge on Zhang Ruochen.”\n“The Black Market will not miss the golden opportunity to attack during Zhang Ruochen’s wedding on the 7th of this month. They would do all they could to regain their honor.”\n“I’ve heard that some senior evil superiors had been spreading malicious rumors about killing Zhang Ruochen on his wedding day and taking captive of his bride. They wanted Zhang Ruochen to pay. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.”\nSi Xingkong snorted, clenched his fists and said, “What a bunch of arrogant scoundrels. How dare they plan to plunder in East Region Saint City, such outlaws.”\nChang Qiqi stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Don’t worry, junior fellow apprentice Zhang. East Region Saint City is not a place for these Black Market Evil Warriors to mess with.”\nZhang Ruochen was not one bit fearful, but it does not mean that he was not worried at all. He said, “East Region Saint City is a relatively safe place. However, the Black Market is very powerful and has a long history in Kunlun’s field. The undercover agents they trained have infiltrated the major forces are deeply rooted within organizations. We have to be careful.”\nThat evening, a family banquet was held in Zhang Ruochen’s mansion.\nAmong the guests were Si Xingkong, Chang Qiqi, Lei Jing, Luo Shuihan, who were monks representing Saint Luo Gentry. Lu Fantian, was there too and he was the monk representing Sword Sanctum, and Nie Honglou, the deputy commander of Silver Sky Mercenary Group,… and so on.\nSince it was just a family banquet, it was not grand enough for senior monks to attend. It was mainly a gathering for the younger generation monks.\nZhang Ruochen met with many familiar friends in the banquet, except Duanmu Xingling.\nAs he inquired about Duanmu Xingling, it was said that she had left East Region Saint City a few months back and had not returned since.\nFor some unknown reason, Zhang Ruochen felt a little lost.\nAfter all, among all his senior apprentices, Duanmu Xingling was the one with the most intimate relationship with him.\nAlthough Duanmu Xingling was part of the heresy sect, Zhang Ruochen treated her as his confidante.\nZhang Ruochen knew very well that Duanmu Xingling left East Region Saint City to carry out a task Zhang Ruochen had delegated to her, which was to protect Ninth Commandery Princess and Zhang Shaochu of Yunwu Commandery.\nFor several months in a row, Duanmu Xingling had not returned to East Region Saint City. Could it be because the masters sent by the Black Market to Yunwu Commandery was too powerful for her, or was she deliberately avoiding Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen’s wedding?\nA sacred mountain was suspended in mid-air above the Seventh District.\nThe sacred mountain was about 333 meters above the ground and it was surrounded by clouds of white fog. Looking up from the ground, one could vaguely see red vermillions and a vague image of the towers that lay behind the white fog.\nDi Yi was wearing a long white robe and had a metal mask on his face. He was standing at the edge of the sacred mountain, looking down at the lights below with his sharp eyes.\nHis eyes came to rest on Zhang Ruochen’s mansion on the Avenue of Kings.\nDi Yi’s voice had a magnetic draw as he smiled and said, “Cyan-Robe, Zhang Ruochen’s mansion is magnificently lit up, and there’s so much bustle and stir in it. It makes me want to join in the fun.”\nCyan-robed Emissary was standing behind Di Yi, carrying a sword. Her slim figure cast a long shadow under the shining moonlight.\nShe said, “Young master, it seems like you can’t wait to take on Zhang Ruochen.”\nDi Yi’s lips curled up slightly as he said, “It’s a good thing to be born in the same age as Zhang Ruochen.”\n“It if weren’t for his provocation, my cultivation may have not been able to reach Heartless Saint Being level. If not for the pressure he put on me, I may have not been able to break through the Ultimate Realm of the Heaven Realm.”\n“He is like a millstone that continues to sharpen my knife.”\nCyan-robed Emissary said, “It’s a pity he’s not part of the Black Market, otherwise he’ll probably be your best friend, young master.”\nDi Yi was an arrogant man. He looked up at the crescent moon and said, “There is no one in the world today who is worthy of my friendship. There are only six people who are fit to be my enemy. He’s one of the more important ones.”\nCyan-robed Emissary asked in curiosity, “Who are the other five and what is their status?”\n“Of these five people, I would think you know some of them. However, there are some whose names you probably have never heard of. Regardless, they may not be lower than Zhang Ruochen and me in terms of their natural talent,” said Di Yi with a laugh.\n“Tomorrow, Zhang Ruochen will be going to the Chen Family to deliver the bridal dowry and gifts. The day after will be the actual wedding. As his enemy, surely I would have to send my congratulations. Have you prepared my gifts for Zhang Ruochen?”\nCyan-robed Emissary’s expression subtly changed. She quickly knelt down before Di Yi and said, “Forgive me, young master. We have encountered some problems with Yunwu Commandery. None of the masters we sent forth had lived to return. Action… failed.”"

567.第567章
下聘是相当讲究的一件事，不能马虎，而且为了显示出对女方父母的尊重，必须要隆重，聘礼也不能太随意。
毕竟，陈家是中古世家，名门望族，在其内部又分为八大主脉，七十二支脉，外族和家将更是不计其数。
不知有多少族人，都在关注张若尘和黄烟尘的婚事。 无数双眼睛盯着，若是张若尘送过去的聘礼不够分量，陈家的那些族人，恐怕就要嘲笑黄烟尘的父母。
因此，张若尘是十分认真在对待这一门婚事，也丝毫都不吝啬，所以，送过去的聘礼，无论如何都要厚重。
知道张若尘要去陈家下聘，各路亲朋好友，在头一天晚上，便聚到张若尘的府邸，帮助张若尘布置婚房和府邸。
司行空和常戚戚是最先赶过来，他们两人，与张若尘的关系极好，从天魔岭，一直到圣院，皆是情同手足的好友。
虽然，张若尘现在的修为，已经远远超过他们，但是却没有丝毫架子，听说他们已经到门外，于是，就亲自出门前去迎接。
张若尘远远就看到司行空和常戚戚的身影，叫道：“大师兄，常师兄，你们的消息，真是灵通，这么快就知道我明天要去陈家下聘？”
与刚来东域圣城相比，司行空并没有发生太大的改变，依旧十分洒脱的样子，腰上挂着一个酒葫芦，嘴角挂着一丝笑容。
他看似像一个酒鬼，却又不失稳重，道：“首先，咋们是师兄弟。 其次，我们都是远离家乡，来到东域圣城打拼，本就应该相互扶持。
常戚戚也嘿嘿的笑道：“没错，我和大师兄虽然干不了什么大事，帮不上什么大忙，但是，帮你搬箱子，送聘礼，还是能够做得好。
张若尘知道常戚戚是在说笑，但是，他们两人的心意，张若尘却还是记在心中，由衷的道：“多谢两位师兄。”
司行空走到张若尘的身旁，低声道：“千万不要说谢，就算要谢，也是我们谢你。 你让孔宣姑娘送来的玄武之气，我们已经收到。
“就一句话，今后，无论什么时候，无论在地方，只要师弟一句话，我司行空就算是上刀山，下火海，也在所不辞。”
司行空说出这话的时候，语气十分坚定，目光犹如两团火焰，宛如是在立下一个誓言。
常戚戚也收起笑容，目光严肃，道：“加上我一个。”
司行空和常戚戚都是重义气的人，能够得到他们两人的一句承诺，其中的价值，绝对就比千万枚灵晶还要珍贵。
大门外面，一个沉混的声音响起，“你们在谈论什么，怎么这么开心？”
一道魁梧的身影，形成一连串的残影，从门外穿梭进来。
雷景背着双手，走下石阶，步伐沉稳，气势滂湃，隐隐间有一缕缕淡淡的圣气，从他的毛孔中涌出来。
每踩出一步，他脚下的灵气，就如水纹一样，向四面八方蔓延出去。
张若尘、司行空、常戚戚，立即迎了上去。
张若尘只是向雷景看了一眼，就看见雷景的体内，开辟出了五条圣脉，已经达到鱼龙第八变。
只差一步，就能修炼成琉璃宝体。
张若尘的双手一合，躬身道：“拜见师尊。”
司行空和常戚戚也立即躬身一拜，齐声道：“拜见雷阁主。”
雷景的一双虎目，盯在张若尘的身上，点了点头，脸上严肃的神情，瞬间消失无踪，露出一道笑容：“你小子，已经成为剑圣弟子，居然还肯认我这个师尊？”
“一日为师，终身为师。” 张若尘道。
刚才，雷景只是跟张若尘开了一个玩笑，毕竟他也收到张若尘送去的玄武之气，心知张若尘是一个孝顺的孩子，没有忘本。
得到玄武之气，雷景就有希望，在有生之年，冲击到半圣的境界。
雷景的神情一肃，道：“我刚刚得知到一个消息，就在两天之前，墟界战场又出现了诸神共鸣。”
司行空有些吃惊，道：“距离张师弟达到天极境无上极境才多久，难道又有人，达到了天极境的无上极境？”
张若尘的眼睛微微一眯，试探性的问道：“是帝一吗？”
雷景点了点头，道：“正是黑市一品堂的少主，帝一，据说他突破到天极境的无上极境之后，就在黑市圣者的护送下，返回了东域。 张若尘，这对你来说，是一个很坏的消息。”
常戚戚冷哼了一声，道：“莫非他敢到东域圣城捣乱？”
“帝一是一个既有谋略，也有胆识的人，说不定真的会有所行动。” 司行空道。
雷景也有些担忧，道：“张若尘杀了黄神星使，擒了橙月星使，甚至外界将绿袍星使的死，也归在他的身上。”
“可以说，黑市一品堂在张若尘的手中是丢尽了脸面，若是不找张若尘的晦气，他们还能叫黑市一品堂吗？”
“很显然，这个月初七，张若尘成亲的时候，是一次很好的机会。 黑市就算付出一些代价，也肯定是要将面子找回来。”
“据说，有一些老一辈的邪道强者，已经放出狠话，要在张若尘成亲的当天，杀了张若尘，擒走新娘子。 他们要让张若尘血债血偿，人债人还。”
司行空冷哼了一声，双拳不禁捏紧，道：“一群狂妄之徒，居然想要到东域圣城来抢人，也太无法无天。”
常戚戚盯向张若尘，道：“张师弟，你无须担心，在东域圣城，还轮不到黑市的邪道武者猖狂。”
张若尘没有丝毫为何畏惧，但是却也并不是完全没有担忧，道：“东域圣城虽然相对安全，但是，黑市的势力庞大，在昆仑界拥有十分悠久的历史。 他们培养的卧底早就已经潜入到各大势力的内部，可谓是根深蒂固，所以，我们还是尽量小心一些为好。”
当晚，张若尘的府邸，举办了一场家宴。
在座的宾客，除了司行空、常戚戚、雷景，还有以洛水寒为代表的洛圣门阀的修士，以鲁翻天为代表的神剑圣地的修士，银空佣兵团的副团主聂红楼……，等等。
只是一场家宴，因此，并不算隆重，主要是年轻一代在聚会，老一辈的修士并没有现身。
宴会上，张若尘看到了很多熟悉的朋友，但是，却唯独没能见到端木星灵。
他已经打听过，端木星灵在几个月之前，就已经离开东域圣城，一直没有返回。
不知为何，张若尘的心中，还是略微有些失落。
毕竟，在所有师兄和师姐里面，端木星灵和他的关系最好。
虽然，端木星灵是魔教中人，但是，张若尘却一直将她当成红颜知己。
张若尘很清楚，端木星灵之所以离开东域圣城，那是因为，她受张若尘所托，要去保护云武郡国的九郡主和张少初。
一连几个月，端木星灵都没有返回东域圣城，到底是因为黑市派遣到云武郡国的高手太强，还是她在故意躲避张若尘和黄烟尘的婚礼？
第七城区的上空，悬浮着一座灵山。
灵山距离地面足有百丈，一缕缕白雾就像是云桥，围绕在灵山的四周。 从地面向上望去，能够依稀看到，白色的雾气中似乎有一座座朱红色的殿宇和阁楼的虚影。
此刻，帝一穿着一身白色的长袍，脸上戴着金属面具，站在灵山的边缘，一双清澈的眼睛，盯着下方的万家灯火。
最后，他的目光，定格在名王大街，张若尘的府邸。
帝一的声音，充满磁性，笑了笑：“青衣，你看张若尘的府邸，真的是灯火通明，热闹非凡，就连我都想去凑一凑热闹。”
青衣星使站在帝一的身后，抱着一柄剑，纤细的身材在月光的照射下，映出一道长长的倒影。
她道：“少主已经迫不及待，想要与张若尘一战？”
帝一的嘴角微微上翘，道：“能够与张若尘生在一个时代，是一件好事。”
“若不是他的刺激，我未必能够修炼成无心圣体。 若不是他的压迫，我未必能够冲击到天极境的无上极境。”
“他就像是一块磨刀石，能够将我的刀磨得越来越锋利。”
青衣星使道：“只可惜他不是黑市中人，要不然，他估计会成为少主最好的朋友。”
帝一颇为自傲，仰望挂在天穹的月牙，道：“当今天下，配与我做朋友的人，一个也没有。 配与我做敌人的人，只有六个，他算其中颇为重要的一个。”
青衣星使好奇的问道：“另外五个，又是什么身份？”
“那五人，其中一些，你估计知道名字，但是还有一些，你可能连名字都没有听过。 但是，他们的天资，却不在我和张若尘之下。”
“明天，张若尘就要去陈家下聘。 后天，就是他们正式成亲的日子，做为敌人，怎么也要去道贺一声。 我要送给张若尘的礼物，你准备好了吗？”
青衣星使的脸色微微一变，连忙单膝跪下，道：“少主恕罪，云武郡国那边遇到了一些麻烦，派过去的高手，全都如同石沉大海，没有一个能够活着返回。 行动……失败了。”

Chapter 567 - Chords of Gods Once again
Wedding engagement is an important affair and it demands a lot of time and attention. It is a ceremonial occasion to show honor to the bride’s parents, and of course, a generous dowry is expected.
After all, the Chen Family is an Aristocratic Family with a history spanning from the Middle Ages, respectable ancestry, and affluence. The family has eight clans, and each clan is further divided into 72 tribes; there are also countless family generals and servants. Needless to say, they are a big family.
It was difficult to estimate the number of families paying close attention to the marriage between Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen. Numerous people kept a watchful eye on whether Zhang Ruochen had prepared sufficient dowry and gifts. If Zhang Ruochen’s gifts were not adequate, the members of the Chen Family were ready to ridicule Huang Yanchen’s parents.
Zhang Ruochen dedicated his heart and soul into preparing for this marriage. He was very generous and made sure he prepared lavish dowries and gifts to be sent over to the bride’s family.
Knowing that Zhang Ruochen was going to send the dowry and wedding gifts to the Chen Family, his friends and relatives gathered at Zhang Ruochen’s mansion to help decorate the bridal chamber and the mansion.
Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi, were first to arrive. They were two of Zhang Ruochen’s closest friends, and they have been that way throughout the time they were in Omen Ridge to Saint Academy.
Although Zhang Ruochen far exceeded them in his level of cultivation, he did not have an air of arrogance around them. He personally went to the gates to welcome them the moment they arrived.
Zhang Ruochen saw Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi from afar and said, “Eldest brother apprentice and Elder brother apprentice Chang, how did you know I am going to present the bridal dowry and gifts to the Chen Family tomorrow? You know so much!”
Si Xingkong had not changed much since the time he first came to the East Region Saint City. He is still as carefree as before, he carried a wine gourd on his waist and had a smile on his face.
While he looked like an alcoholic, he possessed an air of calm and composure. He said, “First of all, we are brothers. Secondly, we all have left our faraway hometown to come to East Region Saint City in hopes of achieving our dreams. It is only right that we support and help each other. We have to come to help you out with your wedding.”
Laughing, Chang Qiqi commented, “That’s right. Eldest brother apprentice and I may not be great help, but at least we are good at helping you carry your boxes of gifts. Are you rejecting our help, junior fellow apprentice?”
Zhang Ruochen knew that Chang Qiqi was just joking. He appreciates their sweet thoughts and sincerely said, “Thank you, my elder brothers apprentice.”
Si Xingkong went to Zhang Ruochen’s side and whispered, “Don’t thank us, we should be the ones to thank you. We have received the Xuanwu Qi you sent to us through Miss Kong Xuan. Even eldest brother apprentice was at a loss for words; we are so grateful.”
“From now on, no matter where and when, I, Si Xingkong will be there for you. You just have to say a word, and I will be there.”
Si Xingkong said these words fervently and with firmness. He had a determined expression, almost as if he was taking a vow.
Chang Qiqi’s expression turned somber, and he said, “Count me in too.”
Both Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi are faithful and trustworthy friends. To have them vouch for their loyalty was definitely more valuable than 10 million Spiritual Crystals.
A low voice rang from outside the gate, saying, “You guys sound so happy, what are you guys chatting about?”
“Swosh!” A burly figure shuttled through the gate in a series of shadows.
Lei Jing walked down the stone steps with his hands behind his back and firm and steady footsteps in austere grandeur. Streaks of Holy Qi could be seen emanating from his pores.
With every step he took, the Spiritual Qi under his feet ripples outwards like water waves.
Zhang Ruochen, Si Xingkong, and Chang Qiqi immediately went forward to welcome him.
All you need is one glance at Lei Jing, and you could see into Lei Jing’s internal body. He has opened five holy meridians and reached the Eighth Change in the Fish-dragon Realm.
He was just a step away from cultivating the Glazed Treasured Body.
Zhang Ruochen clasped his hands together and bowed, “Greetings, Master.”
Si Xingkong and Chang Qiqi simultaneously bowed in unison, saying, “Greetings, Master Lei .”
Lei Jing set his piercing eyes on Zhang Ruochen and nodded his head. His serious expression turned into a smile and he said, “Lad, now that you are a sword saint disciple, do you still have to address me as your master?”
“A teacher for a day shall be a teacher for life,” said Zhang Ruochen.
Lei Jing was just joking with Zhang Ruochen. After all, he had also received the Xuanwu Qi sent by Zhang Ruochen, and he knew Zhang Ruochen was a dutiful child. He would never forget the grace he received.
With Xuanwu Qi, there was hope for Lei Jing to reach the Half-Saint realm in his lifetime.
Lei Jing’s expression turned grave. He said, “I just received news two days ago that Chords of God had appeared once again in the Battlefield of Primitive World.
Si Xingkong was somewhat surprised and he said, “It hasn’t been long since junior fellow apprentice Zhang reached the Ultimate Realm of the Heaven Realm. Don’t tell me someone else did so as well?”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed and he asked, “Is it Di Yi?”
Lei Jing nodded and said, “It’s indeed Yi Di, the young master of Black Market Excellence Hall. People said that he has returned to Eastern Region, escorted by the Black Market Saints after he broke through the Ultimate Realm of the Heaven Realm. This is a bad news for you, Zhang Ruochen.”
Chang Qiqi snorted and said, “Did he dare cause trouble in the East Region Saint City?”
“Not only is Di Yi a man of strategy and courage. He is a man who is capable of actually doing something,” said Si Xingkong.
Lei Jing started to worry, and he said, “Zhang Ruochen killed the Yellow God Emissary, captured Orange Star Emissary, and even the death of Green-robed Emissary was attributed to Ruochen.”
“You can say Black Market Excellent Hall had lost all its honor to Zhang Ruochen. They wouldn’t call themselves the Black Market Excellence Hall if they weren’t going to come seeking revenge on Zhang Ruochen.”
“The Black Market will not miss the golden opportunity to attack during Zhang Ruochen’s wedding on the 7th of this month. They would do all they could to regain their honor.”
“I’ve heard that some senior evil superiors had been spreading malicious rumors about killing Zhang Ruochen on his wedding day and taking captive of his bride. They wanted Zhang Ruochen to pay. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.”
Si Xingkong snorted, clenched his fists and said, “What a bunch of arrogant scoundrels. How dare they plan to plunder in East Region Saint City, such outlaws.”
Chang Qiqi stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “Don’t worry, junior fellow apprentice Zhang. East Region Saint City is not a place for these Black Market Evil Warriors to mess with.”
Zhang Ruochen was not one bit fearful, but it does not mean that he was not worried at all. He said, “East Region Saint City is a relatively safe place. However, the Black Market is very powerful and has a long history in Kunlun’s field. The undercover agents they trained have infiltrated the major forces are deeply rooted within organizations. We have to be careful.”
That evening, a family banquet was held in Zhang Ruochen’s mansion.
Among the guests were Si Xingkong, Chang Qiqi, Lei Jing, Luo Shuihan, who were monks representing Saint Luo Gentry. Lu Fantian, was there too and he was the monk representing Sword Sanctum, and Nie Honglou, the deputy commander of Silver Sky Mercenary Group,… and so on.
Since it was just a family banquet, it was not grand enough for senior monks to attend. It was mainly a gathering for the younger generation monks.
Zhang Ruochen met with many familiar friends in the banquet, except Duanmu Xingling.
As he inquired about Duanmu Xingling, it was said that she had left East Region Saint City a few months back and had not returned since.
For some unknown reason, Zhang Ruochen felt a little lost.
After all, among all his senior apprentices, Duanmu Xingling was the one with the most intimate relationship with him.
Although Duanmu Xingling was part of the heresy sect, Zhang Ruochen treated her as his confidante.
Zhang Ruochen knew very well that Duanmu Xingling left East Region Saint City to carry out a task Zhang Ruochen had delegated to her, which was to protect Ninth Commandery Princess and Zhang Shaochu of Yunwu Commandery.
For several months in a row, Duanmu Xingling had not returned to East Region Saint City. Could it be because the masters sent by the Black Market to Yunwu Commandery was too powerful for her, or was she deliberately avoiding Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen’s wedding?
A sacred mountain was suspended in mid-air above the Seventh District.
The sacred mountain was about 333 meters above the ground and it was surrounded by clouds of white fog. Looking up from the ground, one could vaguely see red vermillions and a vague image of the towers that lay behind the white fog.
Di Yi was wearing a long white robe and had a metal mask on his face. He was standing at the edge of the sacred mountain, looking down at the lights below with his sharp eyes.
His eyes came to rest on Zhang Ruochen’s mansion on the Avenue of Kings.
Di Yi’s voice had a magnetic draw as he smiled and said, “Cyan-Robe, Zhang Ruochen’s mansion is magnificently lit up, and there’s so much bustle and stir in it. It makes me want to join in the fun.”
Cyan-robed Emissary was standing behind Di Yi, carrying a sword. Her slim figure cast a long shadow under the shining moonlight.
She said, “Young master, it seems like you can’t wait to take on Zhang Ruochen.”
Di Yi’s lips curled up slightly as he said, “It’s a good thing to be born in the same age as Zhang Ruochen.”
“It if weren’t for his provocation, my cultivation may have not been able to reach Heartless Saint Being level. If not for the pressure he put on me, I may have not been able to break through the Ultimate Realm of the Heaven Realm.”
“He is like a millstone that continues to sharpen my knife.”
Cyan-robed Emissary said, “It’s a pity he’s not part of the Black Market, otherwise he’ll probably be your best friend, young master.”
Di Yi was an arrogant man. He looked up at the crescent moon and said, “There is no one in the world today who is worthy of my friendship. There are only six people who are fit to be my enemy. He’s one of the more important ones.”
Cyan-robed Emissary asked in curiosity, “Who are the other five and what is their status?”
“Of these five people, I would think you know some of them. However, there are some whose names you probably have never heard of. Regardless, they may not be lower than Zhang Ruochen and me in terms of their natural talent,” said Di Yi with a laugh.
“Tomorrow, Zhang Ruochen will be going to the Chen Family to deliver the bridal dowry and gifts. The day after will be the actual wedding. As his enemy, surely I would have to send my congratulations. Have you prepared my gifts for Zhang Ruochen?”
Cyan-robed Emissary’s expression subtly changed. She quickly knelt down before Di Yi and said, “Forgive me, young master. We have encountered some problems with Yunwu Commandery. None of the masters we sent forth had lived to return. Action… failed.”

"value": "Chapter 51\n\"Soul Contract – Spirit Touch!\"\nCiaran threw a glance at Ayrin’s excited shout. Her left hand suddenly shot out and pointed between Ayrin’s eyebrows.\nThe instant her sudden finger made contact with Ayrin’s skin, a dazzling dot of arcane particles lit up, then turned into a bright dot of flame colored dark red, penetrating between Ayrin’s eyebrows.\nA faint pain stabbed between Ayrin’s eyebrows, but clear pictures seemed to suddenly appear inside Ayrin’s mind, all of them pictures of Ciaran’s motions earlier when she used her skills.\n\"What’s this about?\"\nHe suddenly made a fuss and shouted, \"Teacher teacher, how did you make so many clear pictures appear in my mind?\"\n\"The theory behind this arcane skill is to use arcane power to stimulate the neurons in your eyes and brain, to leave a particularly deep impression of the scenes you saw just now. The effect will probably last for a couple dozen days. This arcane skill can be used for learning, but it’s originally used by elite arcane masters during missions, so they can remember some things better.\" Ciaran looked at Ayrin, \"There are many kinds of arcane skills. Some arcane skills only pursue pure destructive power, some arcane skills can affect someone’s mind. Some special lights, smells, and some little stimulations from arcane power can influence someone’s neurons and senses. That’s why arcane masters at high-level or above have all sorts of varied ways to fight, many of them hard to imagine. No matter their level, no arcane master can guarantee they can safely escape with their lives during a mission.\"\nAyrin nodded repeatedly. Merely judging from the opponents he’d seen so far, they all had their own different ways of battling, to say nothing about those high-level, elite arcane masters.\nHe understood a little at this moment why so many didn’t go the battlemaster route and become an arcane battlemaster revered by the people. In comparison, these arcane masters didn’t need to execute missions and didn’t need to go to dangerous areas. They didn’t receive much attention and couldn’t obtain more respect, but at least their lives were safer.\nAfter nodding nonstop, Ayrin actually showed his staunch loyalty, not forgetting Moss beside him. He immediately asked Ciaran, \"Teacher, you might as well do it for Moss too?\"\nOnly, the Moss who was a little jealous and envious of him didn’t have much hope for himself as soon as he saw Ciaran’s expression.\nCiaran shook her head, sure enough, explaining, \"His giant bloodline doesn’t suit my arcane skills. Inappropriate arcane skills will only distract your attention, they aren’t beneficial for the development of an arcane master. A more suitable teacher will naturally guide him in due time.\"\n\"Ok.\" Ayrin continued excitedly with another question, looking full of vigor: \"Then next I just have to follow the pictures teacher left behind, and exercise by myself?\"\n\"That’s right.\" Ciaran copied Ayrin’s style and brandished her fist. \"Do your best, brave warrior. With your learning ability, twenty days will be enough for you to learn these two things. When the time comes, you’ll know if you can truly condense arcane particles, or if some special reason produced the illusion you opened your first arcane gate.\"\nWatching Ciaran once again sit on the edge of the roof on this low building, Ayrin hesitated a little, but still couldn’t resist asking, \"Teacher Ciaran, can I ask you another question?\"\n\"What question?\"\n\"Why do you always wear this red scarf?\" Ayrin looked at Ciaran. The reason why he asked this question was because this red scarf seemed particularly bright in these pictures inside his mind.\n\"Ah, this…\" Ciaran cast her vision to the skies far away. She faintly said, \"You could say it’s something with a special meaning. In someone’s life, you’re bound to end up finding something with a special meaning for you, or something you need to protect.\"\n\"I understand now.\"\nMoss thought at first Ayrin would definitely be curious enough to get to the bottom of the matter, because he could also hear from Ciaran’s words there was definitely an uncommon story behind this red scarf. However, Ayrin merely nodded his head, then looked at the infirmary on the opposite side of Ciaran. \"Teacher, you’re always around this infirmary, do you also need to protect the people inside?\"\n\"You could say that.\" Ciaran smiled. \"Our Holy Dawn Academy’s medical department is very skilled even in the entire kingdom, so other places will often send powerful arcane masters here when they can’t heal them. To say protection… In fact, all of us arcane masters of Eiche have one ultimate mission, that is to protect our kingdom. The arcane masters sent here all became like this because of battles during their missions. All of them are people most worthy of respect in our kingdom of Eiche, our most valuable assets. Staying here and protecting them also means I’m accomplishing my mission to protect this nation, probably.\"\nIn a quiet sick ward, Chris was slowly doing sets of stretches.\nShe did them very slowly. After laying for a long time on the sickbed, her every muscle seemed to have turned completely stiff. Every movement she did now seemed to be trying to stretch the muscles and knead the stiffness out of them. There was some pain in this process, and she also needed to be extremely cautious, else she could become injured again at the slightest carelessness, disrupting her recovery.\nA knock sounded at the door. Her forehead already sweating, Chris halted her movements and yelled enter. Then she saw two faces with tinges of tender youth appear in her line of sight.\n\"You’re Ayrin?\"\nShe seemed to have a vague impression, but wasn’t certain either. She stretched her hand out and pointed at Moss, then pointed at Ayrin, \"And this one is?\"\n\"Faint…\" Ayrin said, \"Chris, your facial blindness is really too severe. You forgot me again, Ayrin is me. He’s Moss, remember, he’s the one with red hair.\"\n\"I remember your voice.\" Chris smiled. \"I knew as soon as you started talking. Why did you come see me again today? I’ll be able to go out in just a couple days.\"\n\"You’re almost recovered, you can resume your training?\" Ayrin was suddenly excited. He immediately said, \"The main reason we came today is because Moss went to Iron Forest Academy and happened to see Iron Forest’s Ferguillo duel against a freshman called Stingham from Golden Lion Academy. These two people are too strong. Moss says this Stingham’s strength and arcane power are both especially strong, even Wilde was sent flying in a single hit inside the sevenfold gravity gym. He also says this Ferguillo seems to be able to see through his opponent’s next steps. Stingham fought to a drew with him that time, but he was still beaten into a sorry state. Moss felt he absolutely had to tell you so you can be prepared in advance and plan your training accordingly.\"\n\"He sent Wilde flying with a single move in Iron Forest’s strength training gym, and even drew against Ferguillo?\" Ayrin had spoken very fast, not giving many details, but Chris immediately grasped the crux of his speech. Her expression suddenly turned solemn. \"His strength and arcane power are both especially strong, and he’s still a freshman… don’t tell me, dragon bloodline?\"\nMoss immediately felt as he found an intimate friend. He was so excited he was on the verge of tears. \"I also think it’s very possible this Stingham has dragon blood, but teacher Huston didn’t believe me when I told him.\"\n\"Ferguillo seems able to foresee his opponent’s next moves?\"\n\"Yes, he seems able to know which arcane skill his opponent is going to use before they even moves, and even where they will appear.\"\n\"Then maybe he learned Mind Reading.\"\n\"Mind Reading?\" Moss and Ayrin couldn’t resist sharing a look with each other.\n\"A very rarely seen arcane skill from the legends. Only people with some unique bloodlines can learn it, it’s one of the skills unique to special bloodlines.\" Chris bunched her brows tightly together and said, \"It can apparently read the inner thoughts of the opponent.\"\n\"Even your next step will be read in advance, how can you still fight him?\" Moss’ face turned pale white at once.\n\"There are some counters, for example using consecutive motions with high momentum, continuously attacking him with hurricane-like speed. This way, even if he’s aware of the movements in the next instant, he still won’t have time to respond every single time.\" Chris looked at Moss and nodded her head. \"However, it’s fortunate you told me. Otherwise, if I didn’t know he had this type of ability when the match begins, and let him seize the initiative from the word go, then I’d be helpless.\"\n\"Worthy of someone with exceptional fighting instincts! No wonder teacher Huston said that even if she had one less open arcane gate than her opponent, they still wouldn’t be her match!\" Moss suddenly opened his mouth, but no sound would come out. He felt admiration for Chris, to the point of adulation and worship.\n\"We also went to Divine Shield Academy, but we didn’t see their team in training.\" Ayrin interrupted and said, \"We only saw a girl called Charlotte, I feel she’s also very strong.\"\n\"Charlotte? You guys saw her?\" Chris looked in astonishment at Moss and Ayrin. \"She’s someone out of the ordinary from Divine Shield Academy. She mainly focuses on materialization skills just like Wilde, but she’s so much stronger than him.\"\n\"Then she’s the most powerful one in Divine Shield Academy?\" Ayrin couldn’t resist asking.\n\"The most powerful one in Divine Shield Academy is their captain, Ivan Fadh.\" Chris said, \"Last year, Divine Shield Academy qualified together with Iron Forest Academy for the national tournament by relying on Charlotte’s displays alone.

第五十一章
“神契.精神之触！”
珈兰看了兴奋大叫着的艾林一眼，左手突然伸出，点在了艾林的眉心之间。
在她的无名指尖和艾林的眉心接触的一瞬间，一点璀璨的术元粒流束光芒亮起，又变成一点深红色的光焰，渗进艾林的眉心。
艾林的眉心微微刺痛，脑海里面却突然好像多了一些清晰的画面，全部都是珈兰刚刚施术时的每一个动作。
“怎么会这样？”
他顿时又大惊小怪的叫了起来：“老师老师，你怎么会让我的脑袋里有这么清楚的画面的？”
一些独特的光焰、香味，还有一些术力的微小刺激，都可以影响到人体的神经元、感官。 所以上位以上的术师，战斗的方式也是各种各样，很多都令人意想不到。 任何级别的术师在执行任务时，都不能保证自己能够全身而退。”
艾林一阵点头，光是他所见过的那些对手，就已经各自战斗方式不同，更不用说是那些上位、精英术师了。
这个时候他有点明白为什么很多人都不选择战斗术师系，成为受人尊敬的战斗术师了。 相比较而言，那些平时不用出去执行任务，不去危险之地的术师们虽然收获不到什么注意，得不到更多的尊敬，但至少生命会比较有保障。
“老师，要不你也给莫斯来一下？” 一阵点头之后，艾林倒是很有义气，没有忘记旁边的莫斯，马上又看着珈兰说道。
只是对他有些羡慕嫉妒恨的莫斯看看珈兰的神色就觉得自己没有什么希望。
果然，珈兰摇了摇头，解释道：“他的巨人血脉并不适合我的术技，不合适的术技反而分散精力，不利于一个术师的发展，到时候他自然会有更合适的老师教导他。” “好。”
艾林看上去很风风火火的模样，兴奋的接着问道：“接下来我只要按照老师留给我的这些画面，自己练习就可以了么？” “是的。”
珈兰模仿着艾林的样子，挥了挥拳头：“加油，勇士，以你的学习能力，二十几天的印象，足够你掌握这两样东西了，到时候你就知道你是真的可以凝出术元粒，还是因为别的原因，造成了你打开第一术门的假象。”
“珈兰老师，我还可以问一个问题么？” 看着重新在这栋楼的天台边缘坐下的珈兰，艾林犹豫了一下，还是忍不住开口问道。
“什么问题？”
“你为什么总喜欢围着这条红围巾？” 艾林看着珈兰，之所以问这个问题，是因为在他脑海中的那些画面里，珈兰的红围巾总是显得特别鲜艳。
“这个啊…”珈兰的目光投向远处的天空，她轻轻的说道，“算是有些特殊意义的东西吧，人的一生里，总是会遇到些对你有些特殊意义，或者需要你守护的东西的。”
“我明白了。”
莫斯本来以为艾林一定会好奇的问到底的，因为他也听出珈兰有关这条红围巾一定会有不同一般的故事，但是艾林却只是点了点头，然后看着珈兰正对面的医馆：“老师你一直在这医馆附近，也是要守护医馆里的人吧？” “也可以这么说。”
珈兰笑了起来，“我们圣黎明学院的医疗术师系科在整个王国来说也是很强，所以也经常会有一些别的地方没办法治疗的厉害术师送到这里。 说到守护…其实我们所有艾奇王国的术师都有一个最终的使命，那就是守护我们的王国，送到这里的每一个术师都是为使命战斗成这样，他们都是我们艾奇王国最值得尊敬的人和最宝贵的财产，我在这里守护他们，也相当于是完成我的使命，守护这个国度吧。”
安静的病房里，克莉丝在慢慢的做着一套套的伸展动作。
虽然她做得非常缓慢，但是在病床上躺了很久之后，每一丝肌肉都好像彻底僵硬了一样，现在每做一个动作，就好像要把僵硬的肌肉揉软、拉伸。 这个过程有点痛苦，而且必须要十分小心，否则又会不小心受伤，影响恢复。
有敲门声响起，额头已经冒汗的克莉丝停止了动作，喊了一声请进，就看到两张略显青涩的脸出现在了她的视线中。
“你是艾林？”
她似乎有点印象，又有点不能确认，伸手点了点莫斯，然后又点了点艾林，“这个又是？”
“昏…”艾林说：“克莉丝你的脸盲症实在太严重了，又认不出我了，我才是艾林，他是莫斯，你记住了，他是红头发的。”
“我记得你的声音。” 克莉丝笑了起来，“你一说话我就知道了。 怎么今天又来看我？
艾林顿时兴奋了起来，又马上说道：“我们这次来主要是莫斯去铁林学院，正好看到了黄金狮学院的一个叫司丁涵的新生和铁林学院绯绮罗的对决，那两个人太厉害了。 莫斯说那个司丁涵的力量和术力都特别强，在那个七倍引力馆里，王尔德都被一招打飞了，他还说那个绯绮罗好像能看穿对方的下一步行动一样，虽然当时那个司丁涵和他打成了平手，但被他打得很狼狈。 莫斯觉得一定要先告诉你，好让你提前有一些防备和针对性的练习。”
“在铁林学院的力量修身馆里，一招打飞王尔德，还和绯绮罗打成平手？” 艾林说得很快，并不详细，但是克莉丝却一下子抓住了重点，脸色顿时严肃了起来：“力量和术力都特别强，还是新生…难道是巨龙血脉？”
莫斯马上觉得好像找到了知己，激动得快哭了：“我也觉得那个司丁涵很有可能是巨龙血脉，但是我和休斯顿老师说，他就是不相信我。”
“绯绮罗好像可以看穿对方下一个动作？”
“是的，对方好像还没动，他就知道对方用什么术技，以及身体会出现在哪里。”
“那他可能修成了读心术。”
“读心术？” 艾林和莫斯忍不住互望了一眼。
“一种极少出现的传说中的术技。 只有拥有一些独特血脉的人才有可能修得成，是独特血脉技的一种。” 克莉丝紧锁着眉头，说道：“就像能够直接读出对方内心的想法。”
“连自己下一步想要做什么都会被提早发现，那怎么打？” 莫斯的脸一下子就白了。
“还是有些针对性的办法，比如说高动量的连续运动，用暴风骤雨般的急速连续进攻，这样他就算知道一刹那的举动，也来不及接下来的每一个应对。” 克莉丝看着莫斯点了点头，“不过幸亏有你提醒，否则在比赛的时候不知道他有这样的能力，一开始被他占据主动，那就没有办法了。”
“不愧是具有超强战斗意识的人！ 怪不得休斯顿老师都说，她就算比别人少打开一个术门，别人都未必是她的对手！” 莫斯一下子就张开了嘴，却发不出声音，对克莉丝崇拜得五体投地。
“我们还去了神盾学院，就是没有看到他们的小队训练。” 艾林插嘴说道：“就看到了一个叫夏洛特的女生，感觉她也好厉害。”
你们见到她了？” 克莉丝惊讶的看着艾林和莫斯：“她是神盾学院的异类，是和王尔德一样主修实体技的，但是她比起王尔德要厉害太多。”
“那她是神盾学院最厉害的么？” 艾林忍不住问道。
但是在全国大赛第一场就正好遇到后来获得第三名的亚伯学院。 应该是看着实力差距太大，他就根本没有出赛，所以只知道他应该是整个神盾学院小队里最厉害的，但谁都不知道他到底有没有什么特殊血脉，到底掌握了什么样的秘术。” “神盾学院也这么厉害？
！” 莫斯一时有些说不出话来。
“每一个敌人都很强大，有那么多强大的敌人需要打倒，所以才一刻都不能放松啊。” 克莉丝看了一眼窗外，这句话像是对她自己说的。
“克莉丝，你出去了的话，让我跟着学院小队一起练习吧？” 艾林却是反而热血澎湃的样子；“因为我迟早都要加入学院小队，和你们一起战斗的！ 而且我也可以参加你们针对神盾学院的针对性练习啊！”
很有斗志嘛！” 克莉丝笑了起来：“既然这样的话，那你好好加油吧！”

Chapter 51
"Soul Contract – Spirit Touch!"
Ciaran threw a glance at Ayrin’s excited shout. Her left hand suddenly shot out and pointed between Ayrin’s eyebrows.
The instant her sudden finger made contact with Ayrin’s skin, a dazzling dot of arcane particles lit up, then turned into a bright dot of flame colored dark red, penetrating between Ayrin’s eyebrows.
A faint pain stabbed between Ayrin’s eyebrows, but clear pictures seemed to suddenly appear inside Ayrin’s mind, all of them pictures of Ciaran’s motions earlier when she used her skills.
"What’s this about?"
He suddenly made a fuss and shouted, "Teacher teacher, how did you make so many clear pictures appear in my mind?"
"The theory behind this arcane skill is to use arcane power to stimulate the neurons in your eyes and brain, to leave a particularly deep impression of the scenes you saw just now. The effect will probably last for a couple dozen days. This arcane skill can be used for learning, but it’s originally used by elite arcane masters during missions, so they can remember some things better." Ciaran looked at Ayrin, "There are many kinds of arcane skills. Some arcane skills only pursue pure destructive power, some arcane skills can affect someone’s mind. Some special lights, smells, and some little stimulations from arcane power can influence someone’s neurons and senses. That’s why arcane masters at high-level or above have all sorts of varied ways to fight, many of them hard to imagine. No matter their level, no arcane master can guarantee they can safely escape with their lives during a mission."
Ayrin nodded repeatedly. Merely judging from the opponents he’d seen so far, they all had their own different ways of battling, to say nothing about those high-level, elite arcane masters.
He understood a little at this moment why so many didn’t go the battlemaster route and become an arcane battlemaster revered by the people. In comparison, these arcane masters didn’t need to execute missions and didn’t need to go to dangerous areas. They didn’t receive much attention and couldn’t obtain more respect, but at least their lives were safer.
After nodding nonstop, Ayrin actually showed his staunch loyalty, not forgetting Moss beside him. He immediately asked Ciaran, "Teacher, you might as well do it for Moss too?"
Only, the Moss who was a little jealous and envious of him didn’t have much hope for himself as soon as he saw Ciaran’s expression.
Ciaran shook her head, sure enough, explaining, "His giant bloodline doesn’t suit my arcane skills. Inappropriate arcane skills will only distract your attention, they aren’t beneficial for the development of an arcane master. A more suitable teacher will naturally guide him in due time."
"Ok." Ayrin continued excitedly with another question, looking full of vigor: "Then next I just have to follow the pictures teacher left behind, and exercise by myself?"
"That’s right." Ciaran copied Ayrin’s style and brandished her fist. "Do your best, brave warrior. With your learning ability, twenty days will be enough for you to learn these two things. When the time comes, you’ll know if you can truly condense arcane particles, or if some special reason produced the illusion you opened your first arcane gate."
Watching Ciaran once again sit on the edge of the roof on this low building, Ayrin hesitated a little, but still couldn’t resist asking, "Teacher Ciaran, can I ask you another question?"
"What question?"
"Why do you always wear this red scarf?" Ayrin looked at Ciaran. The reason why he asked this question was because this red scarf seemed particularly bright in these pictures inside his mind.
"Ah, this…" Ciaran cast her vision to the skies far away. She faintly said, "You could say it’s something with a special meaning. In someone’s life, you’re bound to end up finding something with a special meaning for you, or something you need to protect."
"I understand now."
Moss thought at first Ayrin would definitely be curious enough to get to the bottom of the matter, because he could also hear from Ciaran’s words there was definitely an uncommon story behind this red scarf. However, Ayrin merely nodded his head, then looked at the infirmary on the opposite side of Ciaran. "Teacher, you’re always around this infirmary, do you also need to protect the people inside?"
"You could say that." Ciaran smiled. "Our Holy Dawn Academy’s medical department is very skilled even in the entire kingdom, so other places will often send powerful arcane masters here when they can’t heal them. To say protection… In fact, all of us arcane masters of Eiche have one ultimate mission, that is to protect our kingdom. The arcane masters sent here all became like this because of battles during their missions. All of them are people most worthy of respect in our kingdom of Eiche, our most valuable assets. Staying here and protecting them also means I’m accomplishing my mission to protect this nation, probably."
In a quiet sick ward, Chris was slowly doing sets of stretches.
She did them very slowly. After laying for a long time on the sickbed, her every muscle seemed to have turned completely stiff. Every movement she did now seemed to be trying to stretch the muscles and knead the stiffness out of them. There was some pain in this process, and she also needed to be extremely cautious, else she could become injured again at the slightest carelessness, disrupting her recovery.
A knock sounded at the door. Her forehead already sweating, Chris halted her movements and yelled enter. Then she saw two faces with tinges of tender youth appear in her line of sight.
"You’re Ayrin?"
She seemed to have a vague impression, but wasn’t certain either. She stretched her hand out and pointed at Moss, then pointed at Ayrin, "And this one is?"
"Faint…" Ayrin said, "Chris, your facial blindness is really too severe. You forgot me again, Ayrin is me. He’s Moss, remember, he’s the one with red hair."
"I remember your voice." Chris smiled. "I knew as soon as you started talking. Why did you come see me again today? I’ll be able to go out in just a couple days."
"You’re almost recovered, you can resume your training?" Ayrin was suddenly excited. He immediately said, "The main reason we came today is because Moss went to Iron Forest Academy and happened to see Iron Forest’s Ferguillo duel against a freshman called Stingham from Golden Lion Academy. These two people are too strong. Moss says this Stingham’s strength and arcane power are both especially strong, even Wilde was sent flying in a single hit inside the sevenfold gravity gym. He also says this Ferguillo seems to be able to see through his opponent’s next steps. Stingham fought to a drew with him that time, but he was still beaten into a sorry state. Moss felt he absolutely had to tell you so you can be prepared in advance and plan your training accordingly."
"He sent Wilde flying with a single move in Iron Forest’s strength training gym, and even drew against Ferguillo?" Ayrin had spoken very fast, not giving many details, but Chris immediately grasped the crux of his speech. Her expression suddenly turned solemn. "His strength and arcane power are both especially strong, and he’s still a freshman… don’t tell me, dragon bloodline?"
Moss immediately felt as he found an intimate friend. He was so excited he was on the verge of tears. "I also think it’s very possible this Stingham has dragon blood, but teacher Huston didn’t believe me when I told him."
"Ferguillo seems able to foresee his opponent’s next moves?"
"Yes, he seems able to know which arcane skill his opponent is going to use before they even moves, and even where they will appear."
"Then maybe he learned Mind Reading."
"Mind Reading?" Moss and Ayrin couldn’t resist sharing a look with each other.
"A very rarely seen arcane skill from the legends. Only people with some unique bloodlines can learn it, it’s one of the skills unique to special bloodlines." Chris bunched her brows tightly together and said, "It can apparently read the inner thoughts of the opponent."
"Even your next step will be read in advance, how can you still fight him?" Moss’ face turned pale white at once.
"There are some counters, for example using consecutive motions with high momentum, continuously attacking him with hurricane-like speed. This way, even if he’s aware of the movements in the next instant, he still won’t have time to respond every single time." Chris looked at Moss and nodded her head. "However, it’s fortunate you told me. Otherwise, if I didn’t know he had this type of ability when the match begins, and let him seize the initiative from the word go, then I’d be helpless."
"Worthy of someone with exceptional fighting instincts! No wonder teacher Huston said that even if she had one less open arcane gate than her opponent, they still wouldn’t be her match!" Moss suddenly opened his mouth, but no sound would come out. He felt admiration for Chris, to the point of adulation and worship.
"We also went to Divine Shield Academy, but we didn’t see their team in training." Ayrin interrupted and said, "We only saw a girl called Charlotte, I feel she’s also very strong."
"Charlotte? You guys saw her?" Chris looked in astonishment at Moss and Ayrin. "She’s someone out of the ordinary from Divine Shield Academy. She mainly focuses on materialization skills just like Wilde, but she’s so much stronger than him."
"Then she’s the most powerful one in Divine Shield Academy?" Ayrin couldn’t resist asking.
"The most powerful one in Divine Shield Academy is their captain, Ivan Fadh." Chris said, "Last year, Divine Shield Academy qualified together with Iron Forest Academy for the national tournament by relying on Charlotte’s displays alone. But they happened to meet the Abel Academy that ultimately finished third in the end on their very first match in the national tournament. He must have seen that the gap in strength was too great, so he didn’t appear at all. That’s why we only know that he should be the most powerful one in team Divine Shield, but no one knows whether he has any special bloodline or not, or what sorts of secret skills he’s mastered."
"Divine Shield Academy is that strong?!" Moss was somewhat at a loss for words for a while.
"Every enemy is very powerful. There are so many formidable enemies that we have to be beat, that’s why we can’t relax even for a second." Chris glanced outside the windows. These words seemed to be meant for herself.
"Chris, if you’re going out, let me train together with the academy’s team?" Aryin seemed as if his hot blood were surging. "Since I’m going to join the team sooner or later anyway, and fight together with you! Plus, I can also participate in the training you’re going to plan to counter Divine Shield Academy!"
"Brave warrior! You’re full of fighting spirit aren’t you!" Chris smiled. "Since that’s the case, you have to do your best!"

She straightens her skirt and bulging butt causes Liu Yi to swallow his saliva.\n“The one who is outrageous should be you.”\nBut he is not willing to be scolding in his face by a girl thus he retorts, “I obviously helped you, but I got a scolding by you. I am innocent okay!”\n“You are innocent? I see that you are doing it on purpose!”\nLiu Hongxian does not care as she says aggressively, “It is definitely you who turned your body on purpose causing me to slip down!

I don’t care anymore.”\nLiu Yi waves his hand and leans against the side, continuing to read his novel.\n“You!”\nSeeing Liu Yi’s rogue manners, Liu Hongxian is so angry but cannot vent.

After all, it is not like there is only my company on the 15th floor, it will not be such a coincidence!\nThe two of them did not say anything on the lift as the lift slowly moves up.\nShe keeps feeling like that guy is secretly looking at him, furthermore, he is looking up and down her body making her feel uncomfortable!\nShe gives that guy a nickname in her heart, rogue!

The two of them looks at each other again as Liu Hongxian looks at Liu Yi in flabbergast.\n“You are also from here?”\nLiu Yi is also very shocked as he looks at Liu Hongxian’s pretty face, “The two of us really are fated eh.”\n“Fated your sister! Ahhhh!!! Why the hell do you come here for!”\nLiu Hongxian really has an urge to go crazy.\n“I also do not know ah. Someone asked me to come.”\nLiu Yi points at himself and says, “I call Liu Yi, are you a worker here? Then do you know me?”\n“Ahhhh!!! You are Liu Yi! My god! Are you joking around with me! ‘Are you kidding me?!’ This is impossible ah bullshit!”\n[TL: the sentence in the ‘’ is written in english.]\nLiu Yi looks at the pretty office lady who is standing in front of the door going crazy and ask, “Can I ask….beauty….why are you so….er, crazy? Did you give up treatment?”\n“I give up your sister! Follow me in!”\nLiu Hongxian grabs hold of Liu Yi’s collar and pulls him into the ‘teaching institution’.\nEntering this company, Liu Yi is dragged by the flustered and exasperate Liu Hongxian under the stunned gaze of the workers inside to an office room and points at the nameplate on it.\nChairman office!\n“Ah, so it is here ah, then thank you.”\nLiu Yi says in his heart, so this office beauty is actually not bad eh. Although her temper is slightly violent at the very least she did not toss me there and ignore me.\n“Go in! The chairman is already waiting for you!”\nLiu Hongxian pushes Liu Yi unhappily and turns around, walking off.\nLiu Yi can only knock on the door himself and from inside comes the voice of a girl, “Please come in.”\nThis voice is rather polite. Only then did Liu Yi push open the door and walks in.\nInside beauty wearing a black western suit is sitting there arranging the files.\nLiu Yi says politely, “You are the chairman right?”\nThat beauty does not seem to recognize Liu Yi as she slightly raises her eyebrow and asks, “You are?”\n“I am Liu Yi, you…know right?”\nLiu Yi himself also do not know what is the situation. The top only ordered him to come here to report and did not say anything else.\n“Ah, you are Liu Yi ah!”\nThat beauty immediately comprehends as she points to the seat in front of her, “Please have a seat.

第620章她是领导？
刘弈说着，手一松，那刘虹仙的娇躯立刻向着地板摔去。
“啊啊啊！”
耳边立刻传来那刘虹仙的一连串惊叫，她下意识地伸出双手，搂住了刘弈的脖子。
而刘弈又再次伸出手来，重新接住刘虹仙那软软的娇躯。
“流氓！ 你，你还真的把我丢下去啊你！”
“大姐，你自己说想尝试一下屁股开花的滋味的。”
刘弈眼中闪烁着戏谑地笑意，“怎么，反悔了？”
“你是不是男人啊，懂不懂什么叫绅士啊！ 你，你真是，真是太极品了你！”
刘虹仙各种鄙视的目光送给刘弈，然后自己挣扎着站了起来，伸出双手，抚平自己的裙摆，那隆起的翘『臀』看的刘弈一阵吞口水。
“极品的应该是你吧。”
但他不甘心就这样被一个女人给指着鼻子数落，于是反击道，“我明明帮了你，反而要被你这样骂，我很辜的好吗？”
“你还辜，我看你就是故意的！”
刘虹仙得理不饶人，咄咄『逼』人地说道，“肯定是你故意扭了身子，把我给晃下来了！ 哼！
“得得得，你爱怎么说怎么说吧，我不管了。”
刘弈一摊手，然后又靠到一边去，继续开始看小说。
“你！”
看到刘弈这赖的模样，刘虹仙气不打一出来，真想把这男人踩在脚下，然后用高跟鞋狠狠戳他的脸！
可惜这里太黑了，刘弈往后面一靠，她都找不到这男人在哪！
可恶……自己长这么大，还是第一次吃这种大亏！
刘虹仙也站在一边，都忘了要离开这电梯的事，小脑袋里计算着该如何报复刘弈。
而就在这时候，电梯里忽然又灯光大作，然后缓缓移动了一下。
“来电了？”
两个人都吃了一惊，然后望着彼此，忽然觉得有那么一点尴尬。
“哼，终于能摆脱你这个猥琐男了！”
刘虹仙松了口气，“实在是万幸！ 你这次再『乱』按，小心老娘替你小弟弟！”
她说着，抬了抬脚，威胁道。
“咳咳，放心吧，我没那么聊。”
刘弈一边看着刘虹仙弯腰翘着酥『臀』穿上高跟鞋，一边按下了十五层的按钮。
那刘虹仙瞥见电梯上的楼层灯，顿时又瞪圆了漂亮的眼睛。
“你也去十五楼？”
“对啊！”
刘弈点点头，“这么巧，难道你也是？”
刘虹仙不说话，心中发闷。 反正十五层也不止他们一间公司，应该不会这么巧！
这爬升的过程并不是多漫长，但在刘虹仙心中却如同度日如年一样！
她总觉得那人的目光一直偷偷打量着自己，而且在自己的身上扫来扫去，这让她十分的不自在！
流氓！ 她在心里给这个男人做了最后的定义！ 而且是一个毫绅士风度的流氓！
的一声，在刘虹仙耳中听来，如同仙乐一样！
电梯门终于在十五层打开了，她连忙松了口气，踏着高跟，迈着长腿，蹬蹬蹬走了出去，似乎要甩掉什么可怕的野兽似的！
刘弈紧随其后，眼睛忍不住又在刘虹仙被制服裙子裹着的翘『臀』上扫了几眼。
丰满……这屁股是怎么长的……太标致了！
这时候，刘弈的脑海中忍不住想起了莫言的大作，丰『臀』肥『乳』！
他也没光着看人家的屁股，也抬头看了眼标志牌，找到了那公司的位置。
于是，他走到门前，伸手去拉门。
而门的另一边却被另一只手拉着，两个人又对视了一眼，刘虹仙瞠目结舌地看着握着另一边门把手的刘弈。
“你也是这的？”
刘弈也很惊讶，看着刘虹仙漂亮的脸蛋，“咱俩还真有缘分啊。”
啊啊啊！ 你来这干什么！”
刘虹仙有一种要抓狂的冲动。
“我也不知道啊，有人让我来的。”
刘弈指了指自己说道，“我叫刘弈，你是这里的员工？ 那你知道我吗？”
你就是刘弈！ 我的天啊！ 你这是在开老娘的玩笑吧！
reyoukngme？
这不科学啊尼玛！” 刘弈看着这位办公室大美女站在门前抓狂，忍不住问道。 “请问……美女……你为何如此的……额，疯狂？
“我放弃你妹啊！
刘虹仙拽过刘弈的衣领，把他拉进了这家“教育机构”里面。
进到这家教育机构，刘弈被那气急败坏的刘虹仙一路拽着，在一群办公室目瞪口呆的目光中，把他拽到了一个单独的办公间之前，然后一指上面的标牌。
总裁办公室！
“啊，原来是这啊，那谢谢你了。”
刘弈心说，原来这办公室美女还是不错的嘛，虽然脾气暴躁了点，但起码没把自己丢在那不管。
“进去吧！ 总裁已经等着你了！”
刘虹仙没好奇地一刘弈，然后自己转身走了。
刘弈只好自己敲了敲门，里面传来一声女子的说话声。 “请进。”
这声音倒是挺有礼貌的，刘弈这才开门，走了进去。
里面坐着一个也是穿着黑西服的制服美女，正在整理文件。
“您就是总裁吧？” 刘弈客客气气地说道。
“您是？” 那美女显然不认识刘弈，微微皱起眉黛问道。
“我叫刘弈，你……知道吧？”
刘弈自己也是不知道是个什么情况，上面只让他到这地方报道，也没说别的什么。
“哦哦，你就是刘弈啊！”
那美女立刻恍然大悟，然后伸手一指前面的座位，“您请坐，我们总裁马上就来！”
“你不是总裁？”
“嘻嘻，我怎么会是总裁，我只是秘书而已。”
那美女顿时忍不住笑起来，眼睛眯成了月牙状，倒是挺好看的。
“您先坐，我去给您泡杯咖啡。”
说着，她转身出去了。
办公室留下了刘弈一个人，让他有些聊，只好又让小璇调出小说来，继续津津有味地看着。
很快，他背后有人的脚步声，估计是那秘书又回来了。
而一杯咖啡放到了他面前的桌子上，刘弈点点头，道了声谢谢，然后拿起那咖啡杯子来，自己喝了一口。
略微有些烫，不过不是问题。
“谢谢，不过有点苦，有糖包吗？”
“糖你妹啊！” 一个女子的咆哮传来，接着刘弈闻到了一股熟悉的香气。
他惊讶地转头一看，刘虹仙正愤怒地站在自己的身后，眼中的小火苗都能把这大厦给点着了！
“你喝的是我的咖啡啊！”
“啊？”
刘弈这才发现自己手中的咖啡杯是个可爱的大象头……我去，这丫头对大象有种莫名的执着吗？
“抱歉……我还以为是总裁秘书给我泡的……那还给你吧，给你喝，不过你口味有点重啊。” “重你大爷啊！
刘虹仙走了过去，一屁股坐在总裁的位置上，“上面怎么派了你这么个极品的家伙来啊！ 不是说要派个高手的吗？”
“卧槽，你是总裁？”
“废话，我当然是总裁，不然是你吗？”
刘虹仙说着，拿起自己的工作证，亮在刘弈的面前，“记住了，我叫刘虹仙！ 是这里的最高负责人！
如果你通过不了，那么抱歉，你哪来的滚哪去！”
刘弈都不知道说什么好了……这丫头竟然是自己的直属上司了？
虽然有个美女上司挺好没错……但架不住对方对自己的敌意指数一万加啊！
这还不得给自己穿小鞋啊！
“等等……我还得面试？ “我管你是第七科第八科啊！
你到了我这里，就必须接受我的面试！ 这次任务至关重要知道吗？”
刘虹仙说着，一伸手，在桌子上按下一个按钮。
顿时，刘弈发现办公室周围的墙壁上开始升起一道道钢板，然后把这里面给密封起来！
眨眼之间，他们就向被关在了一个铁盒子里一样！
“你，你要做什么！”
刘弈下意识地抱住了胳膊，有些害怕地看着面前的刘虹仙。
“你妹啊，我能对你做什么，你这个思想龌龊的猪！”
刘虹仙被刘弈的反应给气到了，“我们接下来要谈的东西是高级机密好吗？ 一个字都不能泄『露』出去！”
“少年你个大头鬼啊！” 刘虹仙简直要被面前这个男人气疯了！
一脸胡须，还嚷着自己是个少年！
“现在我要谈的是正事，你要发誓保密！ 如果你敢泄密，不管你到了天涯海角，我们军情十二局都会追杀你，知道吗？”
那我还是不听了。”
刘弈摇摇头，然后站起身就要走。
刘虹仙气的发抖，“你给我回来乖乖坐下！”
“我不要，你让我坐我就坐，你当我是小学生啊！”
我现在是你的直属上司！”
“哪里有这么神经的上司？”
“你，你，你个王八蛋！”

Chapter 620 She is the leader?
Liu Yi lets go and causes Liu Hongxian to immediately fall onto the ground.
“Ahhh!!!”
From the side of his ears immediately comes the fearful cry of Liu Hongxian as she subconsciously stretches out her hands and embraces Liu Yi’s neck.
While at this moment Liu Yi once against stretches out his hands and once against grabs Liu Hongxian’s soft waist.
“Scumbag! You, you actually really threw me down ah you!”
“Big sister it is you who said that you want to try the taste of falling on your butt.”
Liu Yi’s eyes flicker with teasing intent as he says, “How is it, you regret?”
“You are a guy or not ah. Do you know what is called a gentleman or not! You, you are really, really too outrageous already!”
Liu Hongxian sends Liu Yi all kinds of gazes as she struggles to stand up. She straightens her skirt and bulging butt causes Liu Yi to swallow his saliva.
“The one who is outrageous should be you.”
But he is not willing to be scolding in his face by a girl thus he retorts, “I obviously helped you, but I got a scolding by you. I am innocent okay!”
“You are innocent? I see that you are doing it on purpose!”
Liu Hongxian does not care as she says aggressively, “It is definitely you who turned your body on purpose causing me to slip down! I have seen too many of your stinky guy’s methods!”
“Fine, fine, fine. You can say whatever you like. I don’t care anymore.”
Liu Yi waves his hand and leans against the side, continuing to read his novel.
“You!”
Seeing Liu Yi’s rogue manners, Liu Hongxian is so angry but cannot vent. She really wishes to stomp him under her feet and use her high heels to ruthlessly poke his face!
But it is a pity that it is so dark. When Liu Yi leans backward, she is unable to find him anymore!
Damn it…this this the first time I am in such disadvantage growing up!
Liu Hongxian also stands to the side and forgot about the matter regarding how to leave this lift. Her brain is coming up with plans on how to take revenge on Liu Yi.
At this moment the lift suddenly lights up and start moving again.
“The power is back?”
Both of them got a shock as they look at each other, feeling slightly embarrassed.
“Hmph, I can finally get away from you wretched guy!”
Liu Hongxian lets out a sigh of relief, “Really is fortunate! If you dare to annoy, be careful I will kick your little brother!”
As she speaks lifts up her leg and threatens.
“Cough, cough. Relax. I am not that shameless.”
Liu Yi watches Liu Hongxian lifts up her leg as he presses the 15th-floor button.
When Liu Hongxian sees that that floor button lighted up, her eyes widen.
“You are also going to the 15th floor?”
“That’s right!”
Liu Yi nods his head, “Such a coincidence, could it be that you are also the same?”
Liu Hongxian did not say anything feeling depressed in her heart. After all, it is not like there is only my company on the 15th floor, it will not be such a coincidence!
The two of them did not say anything on the lift as the lift slowly moves up.
She keeps feeling like that guy is secretly looking at him, furthermore, he is looking up and down her body making her feel uncomfortable!
She gives that guy a nickname in her heart, rogue! Furthermore, he is a complete gentleman rogue!
-ding!-
This sound is like heavenly music in her years! The lift door finally opens on the 15th floor. She immediately lets out a sigh of relief as she walks out swiftly like she is trying to get away from a wild beast!
Liu Yi follows closely behind. His eyes cannot help but glance at Liu Hongxian’s butt which is covered by her skirt.
So full….how did this grow…too beautiful already!
At this moment Liu Yi cannot help but recall Mo Yan’s work, full butt large chest!
He did not only look at her butt, but he also lifts his head to look at the logos and found the company location.
Thus he walks over to the door and stretches out his hand to push it.
While on the other side door, another hand is pulling it. The two of them looks at each other again as Liu Hongxian looks at Liu Yi in flabbergast.
“You are also from here?”
Liu Yi is also very shocked as he looks at Liu Hongxian’s pretty face, “The two of us really are fated eh.”
“Fated your sister! Ahhhh!!! Why the hell do you come here for!”
Liu Hongxian really has an urge to go crazy.
“I also do not know ah. Someone asked me to come.”
Liu Yi points at himself and says, “I call Liu Yi, are you a worker here? Then do you know me?”
“Ahhhh!!! You are Liu Yi! My god! Are you joking around with me! ‘Are you kidding me?!’ This is impossible ah bullshit!”
[TL: the sentence in the ‘’ is written in english.]
Liu Yi looks at the pretty office lady who is standing in front of the door going crazy and ask, “Can I ask….beauty….why are you so….er, crazy? Did you give up treatment?”
“I give up your sister! Follow me in!”
Liu Hongxian grabs hold of Liu Yi’s collar and pulls him into the ‘teaching institution’.
Entering this company, Liu Yi is dragged by the flustered and exasperate Liu Hongxian under the stunned gaze of the workers inside to an office room and points at the nameplate on it.
Chairman office!
“Ah, so it is here ah, then thank you.”
Liu Yi says in his heart, so this office beauty is actually not bad eh. Although her temper is slightly violent at the very least she did not toss me there and ignore me.
“Go in! The chairman is already waiting for you!”
Liu Hongxian pushes Liu Yi unhappily and turns around, walking off.
Liu Yi can only knock on the door himself and from inside comes the voice of a girl, “Please come in.”
This voice is rather polite. Only then did Liu Yi push open the door and walks in.
Inside beauty wearing a black western suit is sitting there arranging the files.
Liu Yi says politely, “You are the chairman right?”
That beauty does not seem to recognize Liu Yi as she slightly raises her eyebrow and asks, “You are?”
“I am Liu Yi, you…know right?”
Liu Yi himself also do not know what is the situation. The top only ordered him to come here to report and did not say anything else.
“Ah, you are Liu Yi ah!”
That beauty immediately comprehends as she points to the seat in front of her, “Please have a seat. Our chairman is coming soon!”
“You are not the chairman?”
“Hehe, how can I be the chairman. I am only a secretary that’s all.”
The beauty smiles as her eyes narrow into two crescents which is rather pretty.
“You take a seat first. I’ll go and make a cup of coffee for you.”
Done speaking, she turns around and walks out.
Inside the office, there is only Liu Yi left making him feel bored. He can only let Little Jade pull out the novel and continue reading.
Very quickly from behind comes the footsteps of someone, perhaps it is the secretary who had come back.
A cup of coffee is placed on the table in front of him. Liu Yi nods his head and says thank you before picking up the cup of coffee and drinking it.
It is slightly scalding but it is not a problem.
“Thank you, but it is rather bitter. Do you have a sugar packet?”
A girl roars out, “Sugar your sister ah!” Following which Liu Yi smells a familiar fragrance.
He looks up in shock. Liu Hongxian is currently standing behind him in anger. The fire in her eyes can light up the grand building!
“What you drank is my coffee!”
“Ah?”
Only then did Liu Yi notice that the coffee cup in his hand is a cute elephant head….what the, could it be that this lass has some weird attraction to elephants?
“Sorry…I thought that it prepared for me by the chairman’s secretary…here take it back. But your taste is slightly heavy ah.” “Heavy your sister! Who would want to drink what you had drunk before! Oh, I am so mad!”
Liu Hongxian walks over and sits down in the seat of the chairman, “Why did the top send you outrageous person! Didn’t they say that they were going to send an expert?”
“What the, you are the chairman?”
“Rubbish, of course, I am the chairman, else it is you?”
As Liu Hongxian speaks she picks up her work certificate and shows it to Liu Yi, “Remember I call Liu Hongxian! The highest person-in-charge! From now on you shall be receiving my interview! If you do not pass then sorry, you can scram back to where you come from!”
“…….”
Liu Yi also does not know what to say…this lass is actually my direct superior?
Bullshit…are you for real!
Although having a beauty as a direct superior is not bad…but it cannot stop her from giving me any hidden daggers ah!
“Wait a minute….I still have to go through an interview? What the, are you for real, I am from the No 7 branch ah…”
“I don’t care if you are from the No7 or No8 branch! Since you are here you must receive my interview! This time round’s task is very important to do, you know?!”
As Liu Hongxian speaks she presses a button on the table.
Instantly Liu Yi realize that the steel plate starts to rise on the surrounding wall and seal up this room!
Instantly they are like being closed in an iron box!
“What, what do you want to do!”
Liu Yi subconsciously hugs himself as he looks at Liu Hongxian with some fear.
“Your sister ah, what can I do to you! You dirty-minded pig!”
Liu Hongxian got angered by Liu Yi’s reaction, “What we are going to discuss next is highly secretive alright? Now a single word can be leaked!”
Liu Hongxian is almost going to go crazy from angry due to this guy! With his faceful of beard and he call himselfs a youngster!
If he is a youngster then I am a loli!
“Right now I am going to discuss a serious matter. You must swear to keep it a secret! If you dare to leak the secrets, no matter where you escape to our 12th military intelligence will hunt you down do you understand me?!”
“So serious? Then I’d rather not listen to it then.”
Liu Yi shakes his head and then stands up, preparing to leave.
Liu Hongxian starts trembling from anger, “You fucking sit down for me!”
“Don’t want. You think that I am a primary school kid that will sit down just because you say so ah!”
“Damn it! Right now I am your direct superior!”
“Why would I have such a nutjob superior?”
“You, you, you bastard!”

"from": "human",
"value": "Translate the following source text from Chinese into English.\nChinese: 即便有心理准备，可慕容七七还是差点儿叫出声来。 这是一张怎样的脸啊——斑驳的乌青，像山川河流一样布满了凤苍的肌肤，原本的英俊外貌全然不见，能看到的，变是那一道道沟壑，布满了凤苍的整张脸。\n而凤苍的眼镜，竟然是紫色！ 即便是穿越来的慕容七七，在面对那双干净的如同水晶一眼的紫眸的时候，也稍稍闪了神。\n虽然慕容七七眼里没有任何厌恶的情绪，可是她被吓着了，凤苍能感觉到，连忙低下头，扯了披风挡住脸，却不料被慕容七七拦住了。\n“这是怎么回事？ 为什么会这样？”\n到底是谁做的？\n“不要看！”\n凤苍用手遮着脸，却才想到手上也是那般丑陋，干脆背过身，用苍凉的背影对着慕容七七。\n一抹绝望，从凤苍的心里升起。 除了吉祥、如意、晋墨和管家凤齐，慕容七七是第五个知道他真实情况的人。 如果不是因为今天突然犯病，他想把这个秘密永远地瞒下去。\n痛，纠缠着他的全身，可是这种痛苦，又如何比得上心里的痛苦和难过，如何比得上，慕容七七离开带给他的那种绝望……完了，一切都完了，她都看到了，肯定会把他当做怪物看待，她半天没吭声，肯定是吓坏了。\n为什么白天犯病，为什么让她看到！ 凤苍心里狠狠地咒骂着自己，他想捶自己的头，却不料一阵恍惚，半跪在了地上。 痛苦蔓延着，他的呼吸变得愈发困难起来。\n早知道会这样，他当初是不是就不该那么贪心，不该奢望爱情，不该把她困在自己身边？\n凤苍的意识，渐渐薄弱起来，不等慕容七七搀扶他，他直接一头栽在雪地里。\n想到这儿，慕容七七找来许多枯枝，点燃烧了起来，用烟雾来告诉寻找他们的人们，自己却坐在凤苍身边为他把脉。\n这一把脉，让慕容七七的脸色变得难看起来。\n蛊毒、胎毒、寒毒——难怪他身上那么冰冷，难怪他每天都要服下浓浓的药汁，究竟是谁伤了他？ 到底是谁干的？\n！ 胎毒，很好理解，是他在娘胎里被人下毒，毒素从娘身上转移到他身上，被婴孩儿吸收。 至于寒毒，必定是他的身体在经历大热之后，又被侵入寒冷刺骨的水中浸泡之后才得了的。\n只是，这蛊和慕容七七之前接触的一些不同，似乎还是幼蛊。 可是，若只是单纯的蛊，以晋墨的能力一定能治好，为何现在凤苍还是这样？\n慕容七七努力地让自己保持冷静的头脑，再次细细地为凤苍检查身体。 这一查，倒是让慕容七七吸了口冷气！\n他身有寒毒，而这蛊竟然带有热性，两者相互克制，才能让凤苍一直活着。 倘若除去蛊，就会引发他身上的寒毒，倘若要除去他的寒毒，那蛊就会因为没有“冷”的抑制，而疯狂繁衍。\n看他的样子，中蛊应该是在寒毒之后，确切地说两者一前一后，所以他才能保住性命。 如此说来，下蛊的人很可能就是让他染上寒毒的人。\n还好晋墨一直都跟在凤苍身边，貌似有了十年，这样说来，凤苍的病应该还在这之前就有了。\n还未出生，就被下毒，之后又出现寒毒和蛊毒，到底是谁这样恨凤苍，到底是谁这样仇视凤邪和明月公主的儿子呢？ 作为大将军的儿子，凤苍应该一出生就得到了很好的照顾，为何恶人还会又机会伤害他呢？\n一个又一个的问题出现在慕容七七的脑海里，一时半刻她也想不出这里面的原因。 见凤苍脸色乌黑，慕容七七拿出自己配置的“暖香丸”，掰开凤苍乌黑的唇，塞了进去。\n暖香丸，是缓解寒毒的良药，只是凤苍现在寒毒和蛊毒并发，若只是缓解寒毒，那蛊就会猖獗起来，必须及时遏制蛊毒才行！\n慕容七七又抱了许多枯枝，将大火点的旺旺的，之后把凤苍的衣服脱下来。\n出来的时候没带药箱，还好她一直习惯随身带一些银针，这些可以有用。\n晋墨赶到的时候，就看到慕容七七对凤苍下针的一幕，立刻大喝一声“住手！”\n手中的马鞭飞了过去，快要砸到慕容七七手上的时候，被慕容七七一手抓住。\n“你在做什么！”\n到底还是发作了！ 竟然在这个鬼地方发病了！\n“你走开，让我来！”\n一想到是慕容七七带了凤苍出来，凤苍才会这样，晋墨的脸色又黑了几分，一把将慕容七七推开，自己放下药箱，取了银针消毒之后扎在凤苍身上。\n凤苍的模样，也把如意给吓着了，还好他们刚才看到了慕容七七点得篝火烧起的浓浓的黑烟，才及时赶到了这里。\n让如意惊讶的时候，慕容七七似乎并没有被这样的王爷吓着，如果不是因为慕容七七烧的提醒，他们还不知道在哪儿绕圈子，说起来还要谢谢慕容七七才是，不然还不知道会出什么乱子。\n如意到慕容七七身边，冲他行了大礼。 不等慕容七七说话，如意便去寻找枯枝，把篝火加的更旺。\n这天寒地冻的，要是把王爷冻坏了就不好了！ 慕容七七没说话，站在晋墨身边，看他施针，并在旁边打下手。\n晋墨治得专心，没有看到身边的人是慕容七七，等给凤苍扎针结束，晋墨擦了把汗，侧脸才发现身边的人是慕容七七，晋墨的破脾气又来了。 “你在这儿干什么？”\n寒毒有多久了？ 胎毒是下的什么毒？”\n慕容七七表情非常严肃，似乎没有看到晋墨对自己的不敬。\n慕容七七一下子就点出了凤苍身上的问题，晋墨大吃一惊。 再一想到刚才治疗的时候，凤苍体内明显暖和了很多，一定是服用了什么药物，现在想来应该是慕容七七给他喂下的，晋墨的心情稍微好了一点点。 “这些无可奉告！”\n晋墨为凤苍转好衣服，“公主只用好好对王爷，下次不要这般任性地跑到没有人的地方就成！”\n晋墨对自己的态度，慕容七七能够理解。 这段时间相处，晋墨对凤苍的忠心慕容七七能看出来。\n只是，他对自己隐瞒凤苍的情况，这点儿让慕容七七很不开心，非常不开心。\n“我在问你话，王爷什么时候被人下了蛊？ 寒毒是什么时候？\n“无可奉告！”\n晋墨话音刚落，脖子上多了一把冰凉的匕首。\n“说！ 否则别怪我不客气！”\n慕容七七脸色是前所未有的严肃，她从来没有想到凤苍会病成这样，外人只知道这位南麟王英名在外，哪儿知道他却这般可怜。 慕容七七无法想象数十年如一日地服用苦涩的药汁是什么滋味，也无法想象每个月都要承受这种痛苦，对他而言是多么大的折磨！\n这个男人，一直对她这般温柔体贴，一直和颜悦色不曾说过一句重话，一直把她捧在手心里，她却从来不知道他有这样的病症，慕容七七心里非常自责。 明明朝夕相处，她自己还懂医，竟然不知道他病成这样！\n慕容七七的表情，是晋墨从来没有见过的，她的自责，他看的真切，只是，现在自责有用么？\n晋墨冷哼一声，一把抓住慕容七七的手腕甩开，“公主莫要再添乱了！”\n不等晋墨转身，已经被慕容七七一脚放倒，扑在地上，啃了一口的雪。\n此时的慕容七七已不同于往日，浑身散发着冷冷的气息，语调也不再温婉，变得强硬起来。\n而她的脚，则踏在晋墨的脊背上，不轻不重，只是那力度刚好让他无法起身，动弹不得。 晋墨笑了。\n想到这儿，晋墨大喝一声，踢向慕容七七，自己则起身站在另外一边。\n风，吹过，晋墨凉薄的唇紧抿着，眼神犀利滴看着慕容七七。\n这女人变了模样，已经不是以往的怯懦和慵懒，浑身散发出来的气势让人忽视不得。 这样女人，又怎么可能是平日里那个人们口中的“废物”呢！\n“你到底是谁？”\n晋墨的蓝衣被风吹得鼓鼓作响，黑发也随着风飘扬起来。\n“王爷到底怎么了？ 不要让我问你第三遍！”\n“王爷如何，公主真的担心么？ 既然公主担心，不如坦白你的真实身份，否则，晋墨会以为公主留在王爷身边别有用心，会把公主当细作除掉！”\n晋墨缓缓抬起手，他居然随手捡了一支树枝当武器。\n“晋墨从来不和女人动手，今天倒是要为公主破例了！ 公主，亮出你的武器吧。”\n如意刚拾了柴禾回来，没想到看到的却是晋墨和慕容七七对峙的一幕。\n“她会武功，是西岐国的探子！”\n晋墨用两句话概括出了他对慕容七七的判断，而如意一听说慕容七七对凤苍不利，立刻放下枯柴，来到凤苍身边，拔出宝剑，一脸防备地看着慕容七七。\n慕容七七万万没想到晋墨对自己的偏见会这么深，既然如此，是应该好好教训教训这位大师兄，让他知道如何“爱幼”，如何照顾师妹了。\n慕容七七的脚勾起一根树枝，嘴角露出一个梦幻的笑容来，“我这人最是见不得血，既然如此，我也选树枝好了。\n“倒是很自信！”\n听了慕容七七的话，晋墨冷哼了一声，“这么有把握，莫不是指望王爷醒了之后来护着你？ 不用三招，一招我就会了结了你！”\n晋墨的话，让慕容七七笑出声来，“好呀！\n一个“看”字还没说完，慕容七七已经消失在了晋墨眼前，等晋墨发现身边有异样，慕容七七的掌风已经贴着他的鬓角，割下了一缕乌发。\n“一招！”\n不等晋墨出手，慕容七七再度退了回去。\n他是七段，竟然没有看清楚慕容七七是如何出手。 这位王妃身上到底还有多少秘密？ 如果她真对王爷不利，他们该怎么办？\n这女人已经不仅仅是会武功那么简单了，而是个武功高手！ 刚才她那般，无非是给他个教训，倘若她真心想要他的命，他现在已经是死人了。\n慕容七七摊开手心，向晋墨展示着手心里刚才割下的那缕头发，顺便哈了口气，让头发顺风飘落在地上。 而慕容七七的眼神，充满了挑衅，嘴角讽刺意味明显，仿佛在说，“瞧，你也不过如此！”\n果然，被慕容七七这样一刺激，晋墨恼了！\n身体发肤，受之父母。 慕容七七竟然这般对待自己的头发，让晋墨气愤不已，牙齿咯咯作响，看慕容七七的眼神充满了寒意。\n“我要杀了你！”\n晋墨如闪电般冲向慕容七七，手中的树枝早已经换成了银针，“嗖嗖嗖——”冲慕容七七飞驰而去。\n晋墨出手，让如意心里为慕容七七捏了把汗。\n虽然不明白到底发生了什么事儿，可是晋墨跟了王爷十年，他不会撒谎，更何况慕容七七的的确确有武功，这点儿是他们始料未及的，让如意对晋墨的话有相信了几分。\n只是，若说慕容七七真是西岐国的探子，如意也不太相信。 毕竟这么久的相处，他觉得慕容七七是个不错的人，至少对王爷是用了心的，也不像是坏人。 现在，晋墨把树枝换成了银针，明显动了杀意，让如意有些紧张。\n如果晋墨真的失手杀了慕容七七，凤苍醒来会怎么办？ 这些天，王爷对慕容七七的好如意可是看得真切，自从有了这位小王妃，王爷的笑容明显多了很多，让跟在他身边这么久的如意都觉得惊讶。\n这一点如意非常确定。 要是晋墨死了，那凤苍的病就没人治了，到时候怎么办？ 他们眼睁睁地看着王爷死么？\n一定要阻止晋墨！ 不管慕容七七是谁，都应该有王爷来做决断！\n想到这儿，如意打算出手救助慕容七七，可那些银针离慕容七七只有一寸的距离，而慕容七七根本就不躲不闪，似乎并不知道危险快要降临似的。\n“小心啊——”来不及出手制止，如意只能喊出声提醒慕容七七。\n如意可是从小就跟在凤苍身边，只是这么短短的时间，慕容七七竟然连如意都收买了！ 这女人果然是个妖孽！\n想到这儿，晋墨下手也越发狠起来。\n“呵——”慕容七七一动不动，直到银针近在眼前了，才挥袖，将银针拢入袖中后，转手，将银针拍向晋墨。\n这一招“落花流水”，让晋墨愣了神，等回过神来，银针已经刺入他肩膀和手臂中，一阵酥麻。 糟了，这针上有麻药！\n“呵，我师傅教我的！”\n“你师傅是谁？”\n晋墨更加疑惑，师傅并没有收女弟子，不可能，慕容七七绝对不可能和他是一个师傅！\n见晋墨不信，慕容七七拿出一枚骨针，“晋墨，你可认识这个？\n！”\n“犀牛针！” 慕容七七手中的骨针，晋墨认识，这是师傅最宝贝的东西，竟然在慕容七七手里！ 这太不可思议了！\n“你从哪儿偷的！”\n“晋墨，在你心目中，我的人品就那么差劲么？”\n慕容七七冷哼一声，这会儿才知道晋墨对自己的成见到底有多大，“难怪老头子不喜欢你，你果然很不讨喜。\n还好，老头子最后得了我这么个宝贝徒弟，所以就把犀牛针传给了我。”\n“老头子？\n！” 晋墨彻底僵硬了，如果慕容七七说的是真的，那她就是他的师妹，她竟然用“老头子”来出师傅！\n“当然。”\n慕容七七手指上多了一枚古朴的银戒指。\n看到银戒指，晋墨心中的疑惑彻底被解开，立刻单膝跪下。 这戒指，是医圣身份的象征，现在晋墨彻底知道慕容七七的身份了。 她就是“莲公子”，那个被称为怪医的，他的小师弟。\n当初，师傅在写给他的信中说的清清楚楚，已经将衣钵传给了小师弟“莲公子”，并且说了，见银戒如见他。 现在慕容七七拿出银戒指，晋墨才相信她。\n“哟，大师兄，你怎么给我行这么大的礼啊！”\n慕容七七缓缓走到晋墨身边，拿着银戒指在他眼前晃悠着，“方才不是不相信么？\n非要我请出师傅的信物，你才相信，看来你倒是挺怕老头子么！”\n慕容七七的调侃，晋墨听得明白，却不再还口。 刚才他都那样对慕容七七了，这会儿让她出出气又有何不可。\n只是，晋墨实在没有想到“莲公子”竟然是女子，而且远在天边，近在眼前，竟然是慕容七七！ 这实在是太让人惊讶了！\n原本以为怪医莲公子会神出鬼没，晋墨万万没有想到，这莲公子，会以这种身份，这样低调的生活在他身边。\n小隐隐于野，中隐隐于市，大隐隐于朝。 她倒是把这句话发挥的淋漓尽致，又有谁会知道和亲的昭阳公主，人们眼里的废物，会是名动天下的怪医莲公子呢！\n藏在凤苍身边，倒是个极好的去处。\n晋墨和慕容七七的对话，如意隔得远，听不到，可是看到晋墨对慕容七七下跪，如意有些愣住了。\n这位邪医除了王爷，谁都不买账，刚才还振臂高呼，恨不得杀了慕容七七，这会儿却又是这般模样，到底发生了什么事情？ 如意心里升起了一个大大的问号。\n让晋墨又跪了一会儿，慕容七七心里的气才平息下来。 晋墨虽然有些不近人情，但是对师傅却极其尊敬，这银戒指，原本就是医圣的信物。 见戒指如见师傅，这个观念在晋墨大脑里面已经根深蒂固了！\n“大师兄，起来吧！ 地上冷。”\n收了银戒指，慕容七七亲自把晋墨扶了起来。\n知道慕容七七是故意的，晋墨只能苦笑。 先前给了她很多脸色，没想到她都记下来了。\n“我，是应该叫你小师妹，还是公主？”\n再看慕容七七，晋墨有些不自在。 既然慕容七七是小师妹，那她是不会伤害凤苍的。\n慕容七七抬起头，眯眼看着晋墨，“大师兄，现在你应该告诉我凤苍的事情了。\n胎毒、寒毒、蛊毒，到底是谁下的？”\n“不知道。”\n晋墨苦笑着摇了摇头，“我是大夫，我的任务就是救死扶伤。\n至于那些过去，没必要弄那么清楚！” 晋墨这么说，慕容七七恨不得撬开他的脑袋看看他在想什么。\n知道病人过去的经历，才能更好的琢磨下毒人的心思，也就能更多了解毒的信息，更能帮助解毒，这点儿莫非他不清楚？\n“师兄是想隐瞒，还是真不知道？”\n“你既然想了解，不如亲自去问王爷。”\n晋墨话音刚落，就听见如意的声音，“王妃，先生，王爷醒了。”\n“王爷醒了！” 慕容七七听到这消息，心立刻雀跃起来，这是她听到的最好的消息了，立刻跑向凤苍，跑之前对晋墨说了句，“还请大师兄帮我隐瞒身份！ 多谢了！”\n来到凤苍面前，慕容七七看着凤苍再次乌黑的眼，激动不已，一下子扑到凤苍怀里，“凤苍，你觉得怎么样？\n有没有哪里不舒服？”\n不得不说，晋墨的医术是高明的，凤苍现在已经恢复了本来面貌，不再像刚才那样可怕。\n睁开眼就能看到慕容七七，就能抱着她，让凤苍忐忑的心平静了下来。 刚才，他真的很担心慕容七七会因为丑陋的自己而离开，没想到刚醒来她居然就在旁边。\n“卿卿，不好意思，让你担心了！”\n凤苍轻轻地搂住慕容七七，下巴蹭着她的乌发，“对不起，之前那么凶的对你，还吓着你，对不起！”\n“王爷，你要是跟我道歉，就太见外了。 今天是我不好，如果我知道王爷身体不适，就不会要王爷陪我出来，王爷也不会突然犯病。 是我不好！”\n慕容七七心疼地将凤苍的头发拢好，小手轻轻地抚摸凤苍冰凉的脸。\n“只是，下次遇到不舒服的事情，王爷一定要告诉我，要让我知道。 看着王爷难受，自己却什么都帮不上，这样的我感觉很没用！”\n想到凤苍承受的那些苦，慕容七七就觉得心疼。 他身上的寒毒和蛊毒至少有十年，胎毒从出生就有，真不知道这些年他是怎么活下来的！ 一定很辛苦，很辛苦吧！\n“卿卿，你是为我落泪么？”\n看着慕容七七小小的下巴上的那颗晶莹剔透的泪珠，凤苍忍不住再次将她抱在怀里。\n之前不告诉慕容七七，是怕她担心，更怕她离开自己，现在想来，他那些想法都应该统统抛弃。 他的女人，又怎么会有寻常女人的那种想法呢！\n“下次一定不瞒着你了，真的，我向你保证！”\n雪地上，这对情人旁若无人地诉说着衷肠。 如意非常懂事地退了下去，晋墨深深地看了一眼慕容七七，也退到了一边。\n如果说，之前他还觉得慕容七七接近凤苍是别有用心的，现在，算是彻底放心了。 正好师傅信中说这个小师妹医术高明，他应该和她好好切磋切磋，尽快找到治好凤苍的办法。\n只是，晋墨不知道慕容七七为何要把身份瞒着凤苍，她会武，又会医，这对凤苍来说是最好不过的，为何要瞒着呢？\n此时的慕容七七，已成了晋墨心目中凤苍妻子的最佳人选。 如果慕容七七知道，晋墨是希望有个懂医术的来照顾凤苍，知道他的一切想法都是为凤苍考虑，一定会好好思索一下晋墨对凤苍到底是什么情感态度。\n如意这边儿，晋墨简单地解释了一下对慕容七七的误解，末了直接让他“封口”，别告诉凤苍他们发生争执，以及慕容七七有武的事情。\n“先生，王妃会武功，是好事儿啊，为什么不让王爷知道呢？”\n如意脑子直，不明白这里面的意思。 让他瞒着凤苍，那是不可能的，除非，有一个确实需要的理由。\n原来如此！\n王妃故意藏着自己的武功，就是为了保护王爷啊！ 他们虽然是王爷的贴身侍卫，但总有疏忽的时候，到时候有王妃，就不用担心了！\n等凤苍一行回到车队的时候，苏眉和素月立刻迎了上来，“小姐，你没事吧！\n去了哪儿，这么久，让我们好担心！”\n“我没事。”\n慕容七七话还没说完，完颜宝珠就冲了过来，“苍哥哥，你去哪儿了？”\n看到完颜宝珠一脸担心的模样，和她后面跟来的穆羽蝶，慕容七七故意依偎在凤苍怀里，“王爷，以后也要带人家散心哟！\n每天闷在马车里，真是难受死了，还是出去二人世界比较好！”\n一听凤苍和慕容七七单独出去“约会”，完颜宝珠和穆羽蝶脸色立刻变了。\n这个慕容七七，每天都在凤苍的马车上缠着他，现在又和他出去，真是一点儿都不知道“羞耻”为何物。\n当下，穆羽蝶就开口为难慕容七七，“昭阳公主，你和王爷还没有成亲，有道是男女授受不亲，还请公主自重。”\n慕容七七仿佛听到了天大的笑话，看穆羽蝶的眼神里充满了嘲讽，“好歹我和王爷也有婚约，男女婚前培养感情也属正常。\n穆小姐倒是懂得自重，可是为什么每次都巴巴地往我家王爷身边凑呢！”\n“我，我没有！”\n被慕容七七这样说，穆羽蝶脸涨的通红。\n她不像完颜宝珠，喜欢凤苍，弄得人尽皆知。 她是低调的，含蓄的，默默地看着凤苍，希望他某天转身能注意到她的存在。 所以，被慕容七七当中点出自己的心思，穆羽蝶有些恼羞成怒。\n“啧啧！”\n看着穆羽蝶那张秀丽的脸，红得像猴子屁股似的，慕容七七轻笑一声，头靠在凤苍胸口。\n反正这些女人是恨死她了，永远都是做不了朋友的，何必要在她们为难自己的时候，还给她们留面子呢！\n如果我没记错，穆小姐可是年初就过了20岁生辰的。 隐瞒年纪参加比赛，要是被查出来，知道的人会说小姐爱慕我家王爷，刻意隐瞒年龄接近王爷，不知道的人还指不定会怎么编排我家王爷呢！”\n慕容七七一口一个“我家王爷”，让凤苍极其享受，通过这段时间的观察，凤苍发现慕容七七的占有欲还挺强的。 这点儿，让凤苍非常满意。\n慕容七七只是一句话，就让凤苍把穆羽蝶给打发走了，让众人不得不对这位昭阳公主刮目相看，也清楚地认识到了她在凤苍心中的位置。\n“不，王爷，我不走！ 我是真心想参加争霸赛，真心想为国争光的！”\n穆羽蝶万万没想到慕容七七会这么“狠”，竟然容不下她！\n这五年一次的四国争霸赛极其难得，上次比赛她因病未能参加，这次却已经过了年纪。 还是她在祖父面前苦苦求了很久，最后穆丞相在皇上面前又说了好话，才许了她来。 没想到慕容七七只是一句话，就让她美梦破碎！\n“本王相信穆小姐的真心，只是规矩对四国都是如此，北周国也不能例外。”\n凤苍的回话冷冰冰的，完全不似对慕容七七那般温柔。\n请您允许我观赛！ 我想见识见识四国争霸赛，您别送我回去！” 若是平时，穆羽蝶吃瘪，完颜宝珠只有拍手叫好的份儿，可是今天完颜宝珠却一点儿都开心不起来。\n好歹她和穆羽蝶也有共同的敌人——慕容七七，如果少了穆羽蝶，那她的力量不就是薄弱了一分？ 多一个人也多一份力啊！\n想到这儿，完颜宝珠也上前为穆羽蝶求情，“表哥，既然穆小姐年龄过了限制，不能参加比赛，就让别人替补。 只是我们已经出来这么久，现在让她一个女孩子回去，孤苦伶仃的，不安全，也说不过去。\n完颜宝珠说话的时候，顺便给另外几个选手使眼色。 公主都开口了，他们也不好拒绝，也都一同上来为穆羽蝶求情。\n“卿卿，你觉得呢？”\n对这些人，凤苍完全没放眼里，直接低头问慕容七七的意思。\n完颜宝珠那些个颜色，慕容七七都看的清楚明白，看来她和穆羽蝶现在站在统一战线上了。 如果把穆羽蝶送了回去，完颜宝珠不就势单力薄了？ 那她哪儿有能力来“欺负”自己，她慕容七七又怎么有机会一次扳倒俩呢！\n“既然公主都开口求情了，这个面子当然是要给，不然就显得王爷不近人情了。 还是，让穆小姐留下吧！\n慕容七七的话引了一人的笑声，完颜康踩着雪，来到他们面前，嘴角依旧挂着坏坏的笑，手却在侧面给了慕容七七一个大拇指，“表哥，你和表嫂出去二人世界，倒是让我们好等。\n下次不如带上我们吧！ “本王介意！”\n凤苍拥着慕容七七上了马车，留下一句冷冰冰的话，“本王最讨厌跟屁虫！”\n凤苍的话一丢出来，穆羽蝶差点儿哭了。 一定是慕容七七在凤苍面前嚼了舌根，所以他才会在众人面前这样羞辱她，一定是的！ 若之前，穆羽蝶对慕容七七的恨意只是五分，现在直接升级为十分。\n看着穆羽蝶的样子，完颜宝珠开心不起来。 凤苍这些天对她也是冷冰冰的，无论她打扮的成熟艳丽，还是清纯可人，他的目光始终锁定在慕容七七身上，身边也始终只有一个慕容七七。\n现在，凤苍看似是羞辱穆羽蝶，又何尝不是在给她警告呢！\n“公主，忍一时风平浪静。”\n仇儿悄悄走到完颜宝珠身边，“等到了雍州城，让她哭都哭不出来。”\n仇儿的话，让完颜宝珠想到了她们最近设计的一件事儿，心情稍微好了些。\n“人都联系好了么？ 到时候可别出了岔子！”\n“公主放心，都安排妥当了，只等着到雍州。”\n慕容七七，你毁了我，我也要让你尝尝被毁的滋味。 姑且让你再得意几天吧！ 到时候我要让你生不如死！.\nEnglish:\n"

"from": "gpt",
"value": "What kind of face is this, ah?……Mottled bruises covered Feng Cang’s body like rivers. The original handsome appearance was completely gone. What could be seen was several gorges, covering Feng Cang’s face completely like a monster from science fiction stories. Those with a weak heart may already have fainted due to fright!\nAnd Feng Cang’s eyes were purple! Even Murong Qi Qi, who had time traveled, when facing that pair of clean like crystal purple eyes, would lose her soul.\nAlthough inside Murong Qi Qi’s eyes, there wasn’t a trace of disgust, but Feng Cang sensed that she had been scared. He quickly lowered his head and pulled the cloak to block his face, but he didn’t expect to be stopped by Murong Qi Qi.\n“What’s going on? Why is it like this?”\nAfter the surprise, Murong Qi Qi’s mood turned into anger. Why? Who did this?\n“Don’t look!”\nFeng Cang used his hands to block his face, but then he remembered that his hands were also so ugly. In the end, he turned and faced Murong Qi Qi with a desolate back.\nA touch of despair rose inside Feng Cang’s heart. Aside from Ji Xiang, Ruyi, Jin Mo and housekeeper Feng Qi, Murong Qi Qi was the fifth person who saw his true situation. If it wasn’t because of the disease suddenly acting up today, he would have kept this secret forever.\nPain entangled his whole body. However, how could this kind of pain be comparable to the pain and the sadness in his heart? How could it be comparable to the despair when Murong Qi Qi leaves? ……Finished, all is finished. She saw everything. She would certainly treat him as a monster. She didn’t say anything for half a day. She must certainly be scared.\nWhy did the disease act up during the day? Why did he let her see?! Feng Cang fiercely scolded himself in his heart. He wanted to beat his head, but unexpectedly because of a trance, he knelt on the ground. The pain spread throughout his body. His breathing became increasingly more difficult.\nIf he had known that it’ll be like this, should he not have been this greedy? Should he not have wished for love? Should he not have trapped her at his side?\nFeng Cang’s consciousness gradually weakened. Not waiting for Murong Qi Qi to lend an arm of support, he directly planted forward into the snow.\nThinking till here, Murong Qi Qi collected a lot of dead branches. She lit them up and used the smoke to signal the people searching for them. She sat beside Feng Cang and checked his pulse.\nThis pulse let Murong Qi Qi’s expression turn bad.\nGu poison, fetal poison, cold poison……no wonder his body was so cold. No wonder he needed to take such a thick concoction every day. Who hurt him? Who did it?\nThe fetal poison was easy to understand. He had gotten poisoned when he was in his mother’s womb. The poison transferred from his mother’s body to his body and was absorbed by the baby. As for the cold poison, he certainly got it after his body experienced hotness and was then placed in bone-piercing cold water. As for the gu poison, it seemed to have some years.\nHowever, this gu was a bit different from those Murong Qi Qi had dealt with in the past. It seems that’s it’s a baby gu. It’s just that if it’s a simple gu, with Jin Mo’s ability, he would definitely be able to cure him. Why was it that Feng Cang was still like this?\nMurong Qi Qi tried her best to keep a clear mind. She once again carefully checked Feng Cang’s body. This checking made Murong Qi Qi inhale a deep breath!\nVery vicious person, ah! His body has cold poison and this gu actually is the hot kind. The two mutually restrained each other which made Feng Cang stay alive till now. If the gu poison was removed, the cold poison would activate. If the cold poison was removed, then the gu, because there’s no ‘cold’ restriction, would reproduce like crazy.\nLooking at his appearance, he seemed to have gotten the gu after the cold poison. To be more exact, one happened after the other, that’s why he was able to keep his life. If it’s like that, then the one who gave him the gu was also the one who let him be infected with the cold poison. Wanting him to die, but not wanting him to die too quickly. So, that’s why that person tortures him like this. Bit by bit, that person consumed his life.\nFortunately, Jin Mo has been at Feng Cang’s side. It seemed that he followed him (FC) for ten years. So to say, Feng Cang must’ve gotten this disease before that.\nNot even born yet and already has been poisoned. Later, the cold poison and the gu poison appeared. Who hates Feng Cang like this? Who is so hostile towards Feng Xie and princess Ming Yue’s son? Being the great general’s son, Feng Cang must’ve gotten very good care after being born. Why is it that the evil person still got the opportunity to hurt him? Who is the one who harmed Feng Cang like this?\nMultiple questions appeared in Murong Qi Qi’s head. She couldn’t think about the reason behind this in such a short moment. After seeing Feng Cang’s face turning so black, Murong Qi Qi took out her self-made medicine ‘Warm incense pill’. She opened Feng Cang’s black lips and stuffed it inside his mouth.\nWarm incense pill was a good medicine to ease the cold poison. It’s just that both the cold poison and the gu poison were acting up at the same time. If only the cold poison was eased, then the gu would go rampant. Must curb the gu!\nMurong Qi Qi once again collected a lot of dead branches, making the fire very big. Then she took off Feng Cang’s clothes.\nWhen they went out, she didn’t bring the medicine case. Fortunately, she’s used to carrying some silver needles on her, which was now useful.\nWhen Jin Mo arrived, he saw the scene of Murong Qi Qi putting needles inside Feng Cang. He immediately shouted: “Stop!”\nHis whip flew out. Just when it’s about to hit Murong Qi Qi’s hands, it got seized by Murong Qi Qi.\n“What are you doing?!”\nJin Mo’s heart raised to his throat. When he saw Feng Cang’s appearance, he panicked. In the end, the disease still acted up! It actually acted up in such a ghost-like place!\n“Go away! Let me!”\nJust the thought of Murong Qi Qi bringing Feng Cang out and that’s why Feng Cang became like this, Jin Mo’s expression turned bad. He pushed Murong Qi Qi away and put down his medicine chest. He took out the silver needles. After sterilizing, he stuck them into Feng Cang’s body.\nFeng Cang’s appearance also scared Ruyi. Fortunately, they saw the thick smoke lit by Murong Qi Qi and rushed over here in time.\nWhat surprised Ruyi was that Murong Qi Qi seemed to not have been scared by such a wangye.1 If it wasn’t because of Murong Qi Qi’s signal, don’t know where they would have been searching now. So to say, they needed to thank Murong Qi Qi. Otherwise, they don’t know what kind of trouble might have happened.\n“Thanking wangfei!”2\nRuyi went to Murong Qi Qi and bowed in front of her. Not waiting for Murong Qi Qi to speak, Ruyi went to find dead branches to let the fire go more higher. Such a cold day, it’s not good to let wangye get a cold! Murong Qi Qi didn’t speak and stood beside Jin Mo. Looking at him using the needle, she stood nearby, acting the supporting role.\nJin Mo was concentrating very hard and didn’t notice that the person next to him was Murong Qi Qi. When he finished with the acupuncture on Feng Cang, Jin Mo wiped away his sweat. He turned his head and saw that the person beside him was Murong Qi Qi. Jin Mo’s temper came again: “What are you doing here?”\n“How long did wangye had the gu poison? How long did he have the cold poison? What kind of poison is the fetal poison?”\nMurong Qi Qi expression was very serious. She didn’t seem to see the disrespect coming from Jin Mo.\nMurong Qi Qi pointing out all the problems of Feng Cang at once, startled Jin Mo. Thinking back to the treatment of just now, Feng Cang’s body seemed to be a lot warmer. He definitely took some kind of medicine. Thinking about it more, it’s certainly Murong Qi Qi who had fed him that. Jin Mo’s mood turned a little better.\nJin Mo put the clothes on Feng Cang. “Princess only needs to be good to wangye. Next time, don’t be so willful and go to such a remote place!”\nMurong Qi Qi could understand Jin Mo’s attitude towards her. Living together for a time, Murong Qi Qi could see Jin Mo’s loyalty to Feng Cang. This person has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although every time, he complained that Feng Cang didn’t cooperate well with the treatment, but every time he will treat it extremely serious. Besides, just now Murong Qi Qi saw Jin Mo’s acupuncture skills. His skills are not bad. No wonder master often praised this eldest senior brother.\nHowever, now he’s concealing Feng Cang’s case from her, which made her unhappy. Very unhappy.\n“I’m asking you, when was wangye poisoned with the gu? When was the cold poison put in his body? What kind of poison is the fetal poison?”\n“No comment!”\nThe moment Jin Mo’s voice fell, on his neck was a cold dagger.\n“Say! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”\nMurong Qi Qi’s expression had never been so serious. She had never thought that Feng Cang would be ill like this. Outsiders only knew about this Nan Lin wang’s fame, how would they know that he is so pitiful? Murong Qi Qi couldn’t imagine what taking bitter concoctions for more than ten years is like. She couldn’t imagine what kind of torture it’s to him to bear such a pain every month!\nThis man had always been tender and considerate to her. He always had been pleasant and never said a bad word. He had been holding her in the palm of his hands, but she didn’t even know he had such diseases. Murong Qi Qi blamed herself very much. They obviously stayed together day and night and she’s also a doctor, but she didn’t know he was so ill!\nJin Mo never seen such an expression on Murong Qi Qi before. He saw her self-blame very clearly. It’s just, what point does it have to blame herself now?\nJin Mo humphed coldly. He seized Murong Qi Qi’s wrist and threw her hand off. “Princess, don’t cause more trouble!”\nNot waiting for Jin Mo to turn around, he got kicked down by Murong Qi Qi. He fell onto the ground and ate a mouthful of snow.\n“Say! Or die……”\nNow, Murong Qi Qi was different from usual. Her whole body emitted coldness. The tone was also no longer gentle. It became more tough. And her foot stepped on Jin Mo’s back. Not light nor heavy, but that strength made him unable to get up or move.\nThinking till here, Jin Mo shouted once and kicked at Murong Qi Qi. He stood up and moved to the other side.\nThe wind blew past. Jin Mo’s thin lips were held tightly together. His eyes looked sharply at Murong Qi Qi.\nThis woman changed appearance. She was no longer the cowardly and lazy person. The aura exuding from her body was something no one could ignore. How could such a woman be the ‘rubbish’ from the rumors?!\n“Who the hell are you?”\nJin Mo’s blue robe was blown up by the wind. His black hair fluttered with the wind.\n“What’s the matter with wangye? Don’t let me ask for the third time!”\n“Does princess really care about what’s wrong with wangye? Since princess is really worried, why don’t you confess what your true identity is? Otherwise, Jin Mo will think that princess stayed at wangye’s side with ulterior motives and will get rid of princess as a spy!”\nJin Mo slowly raised his hand. He actually picked up some branch as a weapon.\n“Jin Mo has never used his hands on women. Today, I will make an exception for princess! Princess, flash your weapon.”\nRuyi just came back from picking up firewood. He didn’t expect to see the scene of Jin Mo and Murong Qi Qi confronting each other.\n“Sire, you are……” “She knows martial arts. She is Xi Qi’s spy!”\nJin Mo used two sentences to put out his judgement of Murong Qi Qi. The moment Ruyi heard that Murong Qi Qi was harmful to Feng Cang, he immediately put down the firewood. He rushed to Feng Cang’s side and pulled out his sword. He looked guardedly at Murong Qi Qi.\n“Ah……” Murong Qi Qi never expected that Jin Mo’s prejudice towards her was so deep. Since it’s like that, it’s time to teach this senior brother a good lesson to let him know how to take care of his junior sister.\n“I don’t like seeing blood. Since that’s the case, I also choose a branch. But, I only compete with you for three strokes. If you lose, you need to tell me about wangye’s disease!”\n“You’re too confident!”\n“So sure. Could it be that you are expecting that when wangye wakes up, he’ll come protect you? No need for three strokes, one stroke is enough to get rid of you!”\n“Oh?” Jin Mo’s words let Murong Qi Qi laugh out loud.\nA ‘try’ wasn’t finished yet, when Murong Qi Qi already disappeared in front of Jin Mo. When Jin Mo found out that something was beside him, Murong Qi Qi’s palm wind was already close to his temples and cut off a few strands of hair.\n“One stroke!”\nNot waiting for Jin Mo to attack, Murong Qi Qi went back to her place.\nEverything happened so fast as though nothing had happened at all. The palms of Ruyi were full of sweat. He was level seven and didn’t see how Murong Qi Qi attacked. How many more secrets did this wangfei have? If she really was harmful to wangye, then what should they do?\nJin Mo was also frozen. Her wind palm was very terrifying. He had never seen anything like it before. This woman was not simple as only knowing martial arts, but she was actually a top master! Just now, she acted so just to give him a lesson. If she really wanted his life, he would’ve been a corpse now.\nMurong Qi Qi spread her palm and showed Jin Mo the few strands of hair she cut just now. While she was at it, she blew the few strands of hair to let them fall to the ground. Murong Qi Qi’s eyes were full of provocation. The smirk on her mouth was very obvious as if to say: “Look, you’re just so-so!”\nSure enough, being stimulated by Murong Qi Qi like this, made Jin Mo angry!\nThe body and hair are the parents. Murong Qi Qi actually treated his hair like that, making Jin Mo furious. His teeth made grinding noises. The eyes looking at Murong Qi Qi were full of coldness. Just now, he was careless and fell into this woman’s trap. Now, he would not be like that!\n“I’m going to kill you!”\nJin Mo rushed towards Murong Qi Qi like lightning. The branch in his hand has long been changed into silver needles. ‘Sou, sou, sou……’ they flew towards Murong Qi Qi.\nJin Mo making his attack let Ruyi feel sweat for Murong Qi Qi.\nAlthough he didn’t know what had happened, but Jin Mo followed wangye1 for ten years. He wouldn’t lie. Besides, Murong Qi Qi indeed knows martial arts. This was something they didn’t expect. It made Ruyi believe Jin Mo’s words even more.\nIt’s just that, saying Murong Qi Qi was Xi Qi’s spy, Ruyi didn’t believe that either. After all, getting along for such a long time, he felt that Murong Qi Qi was a good person. At least, her heart must’ve moved for wangye and she also didn’t look like the bad guys. Now that Jin Mo had changed the branch for silver needles; he obviously had the intention to kill, making Ruyi feel anxious.\nIf Jin Mo really slipped and killed Murong Qi Qi, what would Feng Cang do when he wakes up? Ruyi saw very clearly wangye’s good feelings towards Murong Qi Qi these past few days. Ever since this little wangfei2 showed up, the smiles appeared a lot more on wangye. Even Ruyi, who had been at his side for so long, was surprised.\nIf Jin Mo died, then there would be no one left who could treat Feng Cang’s disease. By then, what could they do? Should they just watch wangye die?!\nIn just one moment, Ruyi’s brain experienced a strong struggle. No! He must stop Jin Mo! No matter who Murong Qi Qi is, it’s wangye who should make the decision!\nThinking till here, Ruyi intended to rescue Murong Qi Qi. However, those silver needles were only an inch away from Murong Qi Qi. Murong Qi Qi didn’t dodge or hide. She seemed to not know that danger was coming at her.\nWith no time left to use an attack to stop, Ruyi could only shout to warn Murong Qi Qi.\nJin Mo was surprised that Ruyi was helping Murong Qi Qi. It also let him have a more ‘profound’ understanding of Murong Qi Qi. Ruyi followed Feng Cang since an early age, so how did Murong Qi Qi bribe him in such a short period?! This woman was indeed a devil!\nThinking till here, Jin Mo’s attacks became more ruthless.\nMurong Qi Qi still didn’t move. Only when the silver needles were almost in her eyes, did she wave her hands and let the silver needles enter her sleeves. She then turned her hands and shot the silver needles back at Jin Mo.\nOne attack, ‘falling flowers, flowing water’, made Jin Mo stunned. By the time he came out of the daze, the silver needles had already pierced his shoulders. He felt a burst of numbness. Oh no, there’s anaesthetic on the needles! The numbness on his body immediately let Jin Mo think about the anesthetic Murong Qi Qi had previously smeared on the dagger.\n“Ah, my master taught me!”\n“Who is your master?”\nJin Mo was even more puzzled. Master didn’t accept female disciples. Impossible. Murong Qi Qi and him absolutely didn’t come from the same master!\nSeeing that Jin Mo didn’t believe it, Murong Qi Qi took out a bone needle. “Jin Mo, do you recognize this?”\n“Rhinoceros needle!”\nJin Mo recognized the bone needle in Murong Qi Qi’s hand. This was master’s most treasured thing. It was actually in Murong Qi Qi’s hands! This was too incredible!\n“Where did you steal it from?!”\n“Jin Mo, in your heart, is my character so bad?”\nMurong Qi Qi humphed coldly. Now she knew how much prejudice Jin Mo held against her.\n“No wonder the old man doesn’t like you. You really are not likeable. Fortunately, in the end, old man got such a treasure apprentice like me. That’s why he passed me the rhinoceros needle.”\n“Old man?!”\nJin Mo was completely startled. If what Murong Qi Qi said was true, then she’s his junior sister. She actually called master old man! So rude! So disrespectful!\n“Of course.”\nOn Murong Qi Qi’s finger appeared an ancient silver ring.\nSeeing the silver ring, the doubts in Jin Mo’s heart disappeared. He immediately knelt on one knee. That ring was the symbol for the status of the holy doctor. Now, Jin Mo definitely knew Murong Qi Qi’s identity. She was Lian gongzi, the one who was nicknamed strange doctor, his junior brother.\nBefore, in the letter master wrote to him, he said clearly that he passed down his legacy to his (JM) little junior brother Lian gongzi. He also said that seeing the silver ring was like seeing him. Only after Murong Qi Qi took out the silver ring, did Jin Mo believe her.\n“Yo, eldest senior brother, why are you giving me such a big bow?!”\nMurong Qi Qi slowly walked to Jin Mo and swung the silver ring in front of him.\n“Just now, didn’t you not believe me? I had to take out master’s token for you to believe me. It seems that you’re quite afraid of the old man, ah!”\nJin Mo understood that Murong Qi Qi was making fun of him, but he no longer talked back. Just now, he treated Murong Qi Qi like that. Why shouldn’t he let her lessen her anger?\nIt’s just, Jin Mo never thought that Lian gongzi would be a woman. Besides, he believed that he (Lian) was living at the ends of the earth, but actually he’s right under their noses and was Murong Qi Qi! This is really too surprising! Master praised Lian gongzi very much and boasted that he was a rare genius of hundred years.\nOriginally, he thought that strange doctor Lian gongzi appeared and disappeared unpredictably. Jin Mo never expected Lian gongzi having this identity and living so low-key at his side.\nSmall obscurity is like an open space. Middle obscurity is like a market. Big obscurity is like the imperial morning court. She played out this poem vividly. Who would know that the princess who had come to form a marriage alliance, princess Zhao Yang, the rubbish in the eyes of people, was also the strange doctor Lian gongzi whose fame shook the world! Hiding at Feng Cang’s place was indeed an excellent plan.\nMeaning of the poem: the greater the genius, the more concealed he/she is\nRuyi was far away, so he didn’t hear Jin Mo and Murong Qi Qi’s talk, but after seeing Jin Mo kneel in front of Murong Qi Qi, Ruyi was somewhat shocked.\nThis evil doctor, aside from wangye, didn’t acknowledge anyone. Just now, he shouted that he wanted to kill Murong Qi Qi, but now he’s acting like this. In the end, what had happened? Inside Ruyi’s heart appeared a big question mark. If it wasn’t because he needed to take care of Feng Cang, he would’ve certainly gone over to see what’s happening!\nOnly after letting Jin Mo kneel for a while longer, did the anger inside Murong Qi Qi’s heart subside. Although Jin Mo was somewhat unreasonable, but he’s extremely respectful towards master. This silver ring was originally a keepsake of a doctor. Seeing the ring was like seeing master. This concept had been deeply ingrained inside Jin Mo’s head!\n“Eldest senior brother, get up! The ground is cold.”\nAfter putting away the silver ring, Murong Qi Qi personally helped Jin Mo up.\nKnowing that Murong Qi Qi did it intentionally, but Jin Mo could only smile bitterly. Before, he gave her many bad faces, he didn’t think that she would have remembered them all. Indeed, it’s preferable to offend a vile character than to offend a woman. Especially women with such ability like Murong Qi Qi.\n“I, should I call you little junior sister or should I call you princess?”\nLooking at Murong Qi Qi once again, Jin Mo felt somewhat uncomfortable. Since Murong Qi Qi was his little junior sister, then she wouldn’t harm Feng Cang. Thinking back of those misunderstandings, Jin Mo felt somewhat embarrassed. He misunderstood a good person! However, he cannot be blamed entirely, ah. If Murong Qi Qi made her identity known earlier on, then these misunderstandings wouldn’t have happened at all.\n“Princess.” Murong Qi Qi raised her head, narrowed her eyes and looked at Jin Mo.\n“Eldest senior brother, now you should tell me the things about Feng Cang. Fetal poison, cold poison and gu poison; who did it?”\n“I don’t know.”\nJin Mo laughed bitterly and shook his head.\n“I’m a doctor. My task is to heal the dying. As for those things that happened in the past, there’s no need to know them clearly!”\nJin Mo saying that made Murong Qi Qi want to pry his head open and see what he was thinking. Knowing the patient’s past would enable them to understand the mind of the one who poisoned him better and also let them have more information about the antidote and help them more with detoxification. Could it be that he didn’t know this?\n“Does senior brother want to conceal it, or does senior brother really not know?”\n“Since you want to know, why don’t you go ask wangye in person?”\nJin Mo’s voice had just faded when they heard Ruyi’s voice: “Wangfei, mister, wangye has woken up.” “Wangye woke up!”\nThe moment Murong Qi Qi heard this, her heart jumped up from joy. This was the best news she’d ever heard. She immediately rushed to Feng Cang. Before she ran away, she said to Jin Mo: “Asking eldest senior brother to help me keep my identity a secret! Thank you!”\nAfter arriving in front of Feng Cang, Murong Qi Qi’s eyes looked in the once again black eyes of Feng Cang. Excited, she suddenly flew into Feng Cang’s arms.\n“Feng Cang, how are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”\nMust say that Jin Mo’s skills were excellent. Feng Cang was now restored to his original appearance and did not look as frightening as before.\nWhen he opened his eyes, the fact that he was able to see Murong Qi Qi and hold her, let Feng Cang’s disturbed mind calm down. Just now, he was really afraid that Murong Qi Qi would leave him because of his ugly side. He didn’t expect that at the moment he had woken up, she was at his side.\n“Qing Qing, I’m sorry, I let you be worried!”\nFeng Cang gently hugged Murong Qi Qi. His chin rubbed her hair. “I’m sorry. Before I was so fierce towards you and scared you, I’m sorry!”\n“Wangye, if you apologize to me, then it’s as if you’re regarding me as an outsider. Today, I was wrong. If I had known that wangye was feeling unwell, I wouldn’t have let wangye accompany me. Wangye also wouldn’t have suddenly gotten sick. I was wrong!”\nMurong Qi Qi combed Feng Cang’s hair with her hands, full of heartache. Her hand gently touched Feng Cang’s cold face.\n“However, next time, if wangye encounters uncomfortable things, wangye must tell me and let me know. Watching wangye being uncomfortable without being able to do anything made me feel very useless!”\nWhile talking, Murong Qi Qi’s tears fell. Thinking about the pain Feng Cang had suffered, Murong Qi Qi felt heartache. The cold poison and gu poison in his body were at least ten years. He had the fetal poison since birth. Really don’t know how he survived all these years! It must’ve been very hard, very very hard!\n“Qing Qing, are you crying for me?”\nLooking at that drop of crystal-clear tear on Murong Qi Qi’s small chin, Feng Cang couldn’t help but take her once again in his embrace.\nBefore, he didn’t tell Murong Qi Qi, because he was afraid that she’d worry and even more afraid that she’d leave him. Thinking about it now, he should abandon all of those thoughts. How would his woman have the same thoughts as ordinary women?!\n“Next time, I’ll surely not hide it from you. Really, I promise you!”\nOn the snow ground, these pair of lovers told their inner feelings as though no one else was around. Ruyi was very sensible and retreated. Jin Mo looked deeply at Murong Qi Qi and then also retreated to one side.\nIf saying that in the past, he thought that Murong Qi Qi had a hidden motive in approaching Feng Cang, now he was completely at ease. It so happened that master had said in the letter that this little junior sister was very skillful. He should discuss this with her and quickly find a cure for Feng Cang.\nHowever, Jin Mo didn’t know why Murong Qi Qi wanted to hide her identity from Feng Cang. She has martial arts and knows medicine which is good for Feng Cang. Why does she need to keep it a secret?\nAt this time, Murong Qi Qi had already become the best candidate to be Feng Cang’s wife in Jin Mo’s eyes. If Murong Qi Qi knew that Jin Mo hoped for a wife who understood medicine in order to take care of Feng Cang; knowing that all his thoughts were in consideration of Feng Cang, she would certainly take a good guess as to what kind of feelings Jin Mo had towards Feng Cang.\nTo Ruyi, Jin Mo explained a bit about the misunderstanding between him and Murong Qi Qi in a simple way. In the end, he directed him to ‘seal’ his mouth and don’t tell Feng Cang about their dispute and that Murong Qi Qi had martial arts.\n“Mister, it’s a good thing that wangfei has martial arts, ah. Why shouldn’t we let wangye know?”\nRuyi’s mind was simple and didn’t understand the hidden meaning inside. Letting him keep it from Feng Cang was impossible. Unless, there’s really a good reason.\n“Let wangfei be wangye’s hidden dagger…….”\nJin Mo’s words were very simple. Ruyi understood immediately. So, it’s like that! Wangfei deliberately hid her martial arts in order to protect wangye, ah! Although they were wangye’s personal bodyguards, but there were times where they would be negligent. In that case, there would be wangfei. So, there’s no need to worry anymore!\nWhen Feng Cang and the others returned to the entourage, Su Mei and Su Yue immediately came forward to greet them.\n“Miss, is all alright with you?! Where did you go for so long, making us very worried?!”\n“I’m fine.”\nMurong Qi Qi hadn’t finished speaking yet, when Wanyan Bao Zhu rushed over, “Cang gege3, where did you go?”\nSeeing the worried expressions on Wanyan Bao Zhu and Mu Yu Die, who had followed behind her, Murong Qi Qi deliberately nestled into Feng Cang’s arms.\n“Wangye, in the future, you should take me to relax, yo! Being bored in the carriage every day really is too uncomfortable. It’s better to go outside and have a world with only two people!”\nThe moment Wanyan Bao Zhu and Mu Yu Die heard that Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi went out on a ‘date’, their expression immediately changed.\nThis Murong Qi Qi was wrapped around Feng Cang every day in the carriage and now she even went out with him, she really didn’t know what kind of thing ‘shame’ was.\nImmediately, Mu Yu Die opened her mouth to make things difficult for Murong Qi Qi: “Princess Zhao Yang, you and wangye are not married yet. There’s a saying that men and women should not touch hands when they give or receive things. Asking princess to have self-respect.”\n“Self-respect?” Murong Qi Qi acted like she heard the biggest joke. The eyes looking at Mu Yu Die were immediately full of sarcasm.\n“In any case, wangye and I have a marriage agreement. Men and women cultivating feelings before the marriage is a normal thing. Miss Mu indeed knows what self-respect is, but why is it that every time, you’ll rush to gather yourself to be at my family’s wangye’s side?!”\n“I, I didn’t!”\nBeing talked like that by Murong Qi Qi, made Mu Yu Die’s face become red.\nShe was not like Wanyan Bao Zhu who liked Feng Cang and made it known to everyone. She was a low-key and subtle person. She silently looked at Feng Cang, hoping that one day he’d turn around and notice her existence. So, her thoughts being pointed out by Murong Qi Qi, made Mu Yu Die ashamed into anger.\n“Zeze!”\nLooking at that beautiful face of Mu Yu Die which was now red like a monkey’s butt, Murong Qi Qi chuckled. Her head leaned against Feng Cang’s chest.\nAnyway, these women already hated her to death. They could never be friends. Why should she give them face when they are making things difficult for her?!\n“Doesn’t the rule say that a female player’s age can’t surpass eighteen? If I didn’t remember incorrectly, miss Mu’s age is already over twenty. If it’s found out that you have concealed your age to participate in the tournament, the people who know will say that miss is infatuated with our family’s wangye and deliberately hid your age to get close to wangye. The people who don’t know, really don’t know how they will see our family’s wangye!”\nMurong Qi Qi deliberately saying ‘our family’s wangye’ repeatedly, made Feng Cang really happy. Through observing these talks, Feng Cang found out that Murong Qi Qi’s possessiveness was quite strong. This point made Feng Cang very satisfied. Only when a woman cares about a man did they become so overbearing. She wants to be bossy, he is willing to let her be!\nJust one sentence from Murong Qi Qi was able to let Feng Cang make Mu Yu Die go away; it made people couldn’t help but have a whole new level of respect for her and they also became aware of her position in Feng Cang’s heart.\n“No, wangye, I won’t go! I sincerely want to participate in the tournament! I sincerely want to bring glory to the country!”\nMu Yu Die never imagined that Murong Qi Qi would be so ‘vicious’ and wouldn’t tolerate her (MYD)!\nThis tournament between the four countries, which happened once every five years, was extremely rare. Because she was sick during the last tournament, she was unable to participate. This time, she’s over the age limit. It was only because she knelt, cried and begged for a long time in front of her grandfather, that in the end, prime minister Mu said some good words in front of the emperor. That’s why she was able to come.\n“Benwang believes miss Mu’s sincerity, it’s just that the rules must be followed by all countries. Bei Zhou is no exception.”\nFeng Cang’s answer was cold, unlike the gentleness he showed Murong Qi Qi.\n“Wangye, not being able to participate in the tournament, alright! Please, asking you to allow me to watch the tournament! I want to experience what the tournament of the four countries is like. Don’t send me back!”\nIf it was as usual, Wanyan Bao Zhu would have clapped at Mu Yu Die suffering defeat. However, today Wanyan Bao Zhu didn’t feel any happiness. After all, she and Mu Yu Die have a common enemy……Murong Qi Qi. If there’s no Mu Yu Die, wouldn’t her (WBZ) power be weaker? One more person is one more force, ah!\nThinking till here, Wanyan Bao Zhu went forward to plead for Mu Yu Die: “Cousin, since miss Mu’s age surpassed the limit and she can’t participate in the tournament, let somebody take her position. However, we’ve been on the journey for so long. Now letting her, a woman, go back alone, it’s not safe and it’s not justifiable. Wouldn’t it better to let miss Mu go with us to Yongzhou?! Letting her only look at the tournament will also be good, ah!”\nWhile Wanyan Bao Zhu was speaking, she gave the other candidates a meaningful glance. The princess already opened her mouth, they also couldn’t refuse. So, they all went forward and pleaded for Mu Yu Die.\n“Qing Qing, what do you think?”\nFeng Cang didn’t put those people in his eyes. He directly lowered his head to ask Murong Qi Qi.\nMurong Qi Qi saw and understood all those glances of Wanyan Bao Zhu. It seemed that she and Mu Yu Die were now standing on the same side. If she sent Mu Yu Die back, then wouldn’t Wanyan Bao Zhu’s power weaken? Then where would she (WBZ) have the ability to ‘bully’ her (MQQ). And when would she, Murong Qi Qi, have the chance to pull down the two of the, at once?!\n“Since princess opened your mouth to plead, this face, I should naturally give; otherwise, it’ll let people think that wangye is too inhumane. It’s better to let miss Mu stay! Speaking of which, she is also a pitiful person. Missing this opportunity, the next half of her life, she might not have this blessing anymore!”\n“Puchi……” Murong Qi Qi’s words caused the laughter of one person. Wanyan Kang stepped on the snow and came towards them. His mouth was still wearing that black belly smile. He gave Murong Qi Qi a big thumbs up.\n“Cousin, you and cousin-in-law went away to have the world for you two alone, really let people wait for a long time. Next time, why don’t you bring us along?! If you don’t mind……”\nFeng Cang hugged Murong Qi Qi when he went inside the carriage, leaving a cold sentence: “Benwang hates bum beetles the most!”\nThe moment Feng Cang’s words came out, Mu Yu Die almost cried. It’s certainly Murong Qi Qi who gossiped in front of Feng Cang. That’s why he shamed her like this in front of everyone. It must be that! If before, Mu Yu Die’s hatred towards Murong Qi Qi was only fifty percent, now it has upgraded to one hundred percent.\nSeeing Mu Yu Die’s expression, Wanyan Bao Zhu couldn’t become happy. These past few days, Feng Cang was also cold towards her. No matter how she dressed, mature and beautiful or pure and pleasant, his eyes were always locked onto Murong Qi Qi. At his side, there was also always Murong Qi Qi. Now, it looked like Feng Cang was shaming Mu Yu Die, but was it not also a warning to her?!\n“Princess, endure temporarily, the breeze will be still and the waves will be quiet!”\nChou er5 quietly went to Wanyan Bao Zhu’s side.\n“When we reached Yongzhou city, we’ll make it so that she won’t be able to cry even if she wanted to.”\nChou er’s words reminded Wanyan Bao Zhu about the thing they had planned recently. Her mood turned a bit better.\n“Did you contact those people? Don’t make a mistake by then!”\n“Princess, rest assured. All have been arranged properly. We only need to wait till we arrive at Yongzhou.”\nChou er revealed an evil smile. Her eyes also fell on Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi’s carriage. Murong Qi Qi, you ruined me, I’ll also let you get a taste of what being ruined is like. I’ll let you be pleased for a few more days! When the time comes, I’ll let you feel that living is more painful than death!"

即便有心理准备，可慕容七七还是差点儿叫出声来。 这是一张怎样的脸啊——斑驳的乌青，像山川河流一样布满了凤苍的肌肤，原本的英俊外貌全然不见，能看到的，变是那一道道沟壑，布满了凤苍的整张脸。
而凤苍的眼镜，竟然是紫色！ 即便是穿越来的慕容七七，在面对那双干净的如同水晶一眼的紫眸的时候，也稍稍闪了神。
虽然慕容七七眼里没有任何厌恶的情绪，可是她被吓着了，凤苍能感觉到，连忙低下头，扯了披风挡住脸，却不料被慕容七七拦住了。
“这是怎么回事？ 为什么会这样？”
到底是谁做的？
“不要看！”
凤苍用手遮着脸，却才想到手上也是那般丑陋，干脆背过身，用苍凉的背影对着慕容七七。
一抹绝望，从凤苍的心里升起。 除了吉祥、如意、晋墨和管家凤齐，慕容七七是第五个知道他真实情况的人。 如果不是因为今天突然犯病，他想把这个秘密永远地瞒下去。
痛，纠缠着他的全身，可是这种痛苦，又如何比得上心里的痛苦和难过，如何比得上，慕容七七离开带给他的那种绝望……完了，一切都完了，她都看到了，肯定会把他当做怪物看待，她半天没吭声，肯定是吓坏了。
为什么白天犯病，为什么让她看到！ 凤苍心里狠狠地咒骂着自己，他想捶自己的头，却不料一阵恍惚，半跪在了地上。 痛苦蔓延着，他的呼吸变得愈发困难起来。
早知道会这样，他当初是不是就不该那么贪心，不该奢望爱情，不该把她困在自己身边？
凤苍的意识，渐渐薄弱起来，不等慕容七七搀扶他，他直接一头栽在雪地里。
想到这儿，慕容七七找来许多枯枝，点燃烧了起来，用烟雾来告诉寻找他们的人们，自己却坐在凤苍身边为他把脉。
这一把脉，让慕容七七的脸色变得难看起来。
蛊毒、胎毒、寒毒——难怪他身上那么冰冷，难怪他每天都要服下浓浓的药汁，究竟是谁伤了他？ 到底是谁干的？
！ 胎毒，很好理解，是他在娘胎里被人下毒，毒素从娘身上转移到他身上，被婴孩儿吸收。 至于寒毒，必定是他的身体在经历大热之后，又被侵入寒冷刺骨的水中浸泡之后才得了的。
只是，这蛊和慕容七七之前接触的一些不同，似乎还是幼蛊。 可是，若只是单纯的蛊，以晋墨的能力一定能治好，为何现在凤苍还是这样？
慕容七七努力地让自己保持冷静的头脑，再次细细地为凤苍检查身体。 这一查，倒是让慕容七七吸了口冷气！
他身有寒毒，而这蛊竟然带有热性，两者相互克制，才能让凤苍一直活着。 倘若除去蛊，就会引发他身上的寒毒，倘若要除去他的寒毒，那蛊就会因为没有“冷”的抑制，而疯狂繁衍。
看他的样子，中蛊应该是在寒毒之后，确切地说两者一前一后，所以他才能保住性命。 如此说来，下蛊的人很可能就是让他染上寒毒的人。
还好晋墨一直都跟在凤苍身边，貌似有了十年，这样说来，凤苍的病应该还在这之前就有了。
还未出生，就被下毒，之后又出现寒毒和蛊毒，到底是谁这样恨凤苍，到底是谁这样仇视凤邪和明月公主的儿子呢？ 作为大将军的儿子，凤苍应该一出生就得到了很好的照顾，为何恶人还会又机会伤害他呢？
一个又一个的问题出现在慕容七七的脑海里，一时半刻她也想不出这里面的原因。 见凤苍脸色乌黑，慕容七七拿出自己配置的“暖香丸”，掰开凤苍乌黑的唇，塞了进去。
暖香丸，是缓解寒毒的良药，只是凤苍现在寒毒和蛊毒并发，若只是缓解寒毒，那蛊就会猖獗起来，必须及时遏制蛊毒才行！
慕容七七又抱了许多枯枝，将大火点的旺旺的，之后把凤苍的衣服脱下来。
出来的时候没带药箱，还好她一直习惯随身带一些银针，这些可以有用。
晋墨赶到的时候，就看到慕容七七对凤苍下针的一幕，立刻大喝一声“住手！”
手中的马鞭飞了过去，快要砸到慕容七七手上的时候，被慕容七七一手抓住。
“你在做什么！”
到底还是发作了！ 竟然在这个鬼地方发病了！
“你走开，让我来！”
一想到是慕容七七带了凤苍出来，凤苍才会这样，晋墨的脸色又黑了几分，一把将慕容七七推开，自己放下药箱，取了银针消毒之后扎在凤苍身上。
凤苍的模样，也把如意给吓着了，还好他们刚才看到了慕容七七点得篝火烧起的浓浓的黑烟，才及时赶到了这里。
让如意惊讶的时候，慕容七七似乎并没有被这样的王爷吓着，如果不是因为慕容七七烧的提醒，他们还不知道在哪儿绕圈子，说起来还要谢谢慕容七七才是，不然还不知道会出什么乱子。
如意到慕容七七身边，冲他行了大礼。 不等慕容七七说话，如意便去寻找枯枝，把篝火加的更旺。
这天寒地冻的，要是把王爷冻坏了就不好了！ 慕容七七没说话，站在晋墨身边，看他施针，并在旁边打下手。
晋墨治得专心，没有看到身边的人是慕容七七，等给凤苍扎针结束，晋墨擦了把汗，侧脸才发现身边的人是慕容七七，晋墨的破脾气又来了。 “你在这儿干什么？”
寒毒有多久了？ 胎毒是下的什么毒？”
慕容七七表情非常严肃，似乎没有看到晋墨对自己的不敬。
慕容七七一下子就点出了凤苍身上的问题，晋墨大吃一惊。 再一想到刚才治疗的时候，凤苍体内明显暖和了很多，一定是服用了什么药物，现在想来应该是慕容七七给他喂下的，晋墨的心情稍微好了一点点。 “这些无可奉告！”
晋墨为凤苍转好衣服，“公主只用好好对王爷，下次不要这般任性地跑到没有人的地方就成！”
晋墨对自己的态度，慕容七七能够理解。 这段时间相处，晋墨对凤苍的忠心慕容七七能看出来。
只是，他对自己隐瞒凤苍的情况，这点儿让慕容七七很不开心，非常不开心。
“我在问你话，王爷什么时候被人下了蛊？ 寒毒是什么时候？
“无可奉告！”
晋墨话音刚落，脖子上多了一把冰凉的匕首。
“说！ 否则别怪我不客气！”
慕容七七脸色是前所未有的严肃，她从来没有想到凤苍会病成这样，外人只知道这位南麟王英名在外，哪儿知道他却这般可怜。 慕容七七无法想象数十年如一日地服用苦涩的药汁是什么滋味，也无法想象每个月都要承受这种痛苦，对他而言是多么大的折磨！
这个男人，一直对她这般温柔体贴，一直和颜悦色不曾说过一句重话，一直把她捧在手心里，她却从来不知道他有这样的病症，慕容七七心里非常自责。 明明朝夕相处，她自己还懂医，竟然不知道他病成这样！
慕容七七的表情，是晋墨从来没有见过的，她的自责，他看的真切，只是，现在自责有用么？
晋墨冷哼一声，一把抓住慕容七七的手腕甩开，“公主莫要再添乱了！”
不等晋墨转身，已经被慕容七七一脚放倒，扑在地上，啃了一口的雪。
此时的慕容七七已不同于往日，浑身散发着冷冷的气息，语调也不再温婉，变得强硬起来。
而她的脚，则踏在晋墨的脊背上，不轻不重，只是那力度刚好让他无法起身，动弹不得。 晋墨笑了。
想到这儿，晋墨大喝一声，踢向慕容七七，自己则起身站在另外一边。
风，吹过，晋墨凉薄的唇紧抿着，眼神犀利滴看着慕容七七。
这女人变了模样，已经不是以往的怯懦和慵懒，浑身散发出来的气势让人忽视不得。 这样女人，又怎么可能是平日里那个人们口中的“废物”呢！
“你到底是谁？”
晋墨的蓝衣被风吹得鼓鼓作响，黑发也随着风飘扬起来。
“王爷到底怎么了？ 不要让我问你第三遍！”
“王爷如何，公主真的担心么？ 既然公主担心，不如坦白你的真实身份，否则，晋墨会以为公主留在王爷身边别有用心，会把公主当细作除掉！”
晋墨缓缓抬起手，他居然随手捡了一支树枝当武器。
“晋墨从来不和女人动手，今天倒是要为公主破例了！ 公主，亮出你的武器吧。”
如意刚拾了柴禾回来，没想到看到的却是晋墨和慕容七七对峙的一幕。
“她会武功，是西岐国的探子！”
晋墨用两句话概括出了他对慕容七七的判断，而如意一听说慕容七七对凤苍不利，立刻放下枯柴，来到凤苍身边，拔出宝剑，一脸防备地看着慕容七七。
慕容七七万万没想到晋墨对自己的偏见会这么深，既然如此，是应该好好教训教训这位大师兄，让他知道如何“爱幼”，如何照顾师妹了。
慕容七七的脚勾起一根树枝，嘴角露出一个梦幻的笑容来，“我这人最是见不得血，既然如此，我也选树枝好了。
“倒是很自信！”
听了慕容七七的话，晋墨冷哼了一声，“这么有把握，莫不是指望王爷醒了之后来护着你？ 不用三招，一招我就会了结了你！”
晋墨的话，让慕容七七笑出声来，“好呀！
一个“看”字还没说完，慕容七七已经消失在了晋墨眼前，等晋墨发现身边有异样，慕容七七的掌风已经贴着他的鬓角，割下了一缕乌发。
“一招！”
不等晋墨出手，慕容七七再度退了回去。
他是七段，竟然没有看清楚慕容七七是如何出手。 这位王妃身上到底还有多少秘密？ 如果她真对王爷不利，他们该怎么办？
这女人已经不仅仅是会武功那么简单了，而是个武功高手！ 刚才她那般，无非是给他个教训，倘若她真心想要他的命，他现在已经是死人了。
慕容七七摊开手心，向晋墨展示着手心里刚才割下的那缕头发，顺便哈了口气，让头发顺风飘落在地上。 而慕容七七的眼神，充满了挑衅，嘴角讽刺意味明显，仿佛在说，“瞧，你也不过如此！”
果然，被慕容七七这样一刺激，晋墨恼了！
身体发肤，受之父母。 慕容七七竟然这般对待自己的头发，让晋墨气愤不已，牙齿咯咯作响，看慕容七七的眼神充满了寒意。
“我要杀了你！”
晋墨如闪电般冲向慕容七七，手中的树枝早已经换成了银针，“嗖嗖嗖——”冲慕容七七飞驰而去。
晋墨出手，让如意心里为慕容七七捏了把汗。
虽然不明白到底发生了什么事儿，可是晋墨跟了王爷十年，他不会撒谎，更何况慕容七七的的确确有武功，这点儿是他们始料未及的，让如意对晋墨的话有相信了几分。
只是，若说慕容七七真是西岐国的探子，如意也不太相信。 毕竟这么久的相处，他觉得慕容七七是个不错的人，至少对王爷是用了心的，也不像是坏人。 现在，晋墨把树枝换成了银针，明显动了杀意，让如意有些紧张。
如果晋墨真的失手杀了慕容七七，凤苍醒来会怎么办？ 这些天，王爷对慕容七七的好如意可是看得真切，自从有了这位小王妃，王爷的笑容明显多了很多，让跟在他身边这么久的如意都觉得惊讶。
这一点如意非常确定。 要是晋墨死了，那凤苍的病就没人治了，到时候怎么办？ 他们眼睁睁地看着王爷死么？
一定要阻止晋墨！ 不管慕容七七是谁，都应该有王爷来做决断！
想到这儿，如意打算出手救助慕容七七，可那些银针离慕容七七只有一寸的距离，而慕容七七根本就不躲不闪，似乎并不知道危险快要降临似的。
“小心啊——”来不及出手制止，如意只能喊出声提醒慕容七七。
如意可是从小就跟在凤苍身边，只是这么短短的时间，慕容七七竟然连如意都收买了！ 这女人果然是个妖孽！
想到这儿，晋墨下手也越发狠起来。
“呵——”慕容七七一动不动，直到银针近在眼前了，才挥袖，将银针拢入袖中后，转手，将银针拍向晋墨。
这一招“落花流水”，让晋墨愣了神，等回过神来，银针已经刺入他肩膀和手臂中，一阵酥麻。 糟了，这针上有麻药！
“呵，我师傅教我的！”
“你师傅是谁？”
晋墨更加疑惑，师傅并没有收女弟子，不可能，慕容七七绝对不可能和他是一个师傅！
见晋墨不信，慕容七七拿出一枚骨针，“晋墨，你可认识这个？
！”
“犀牛针！” 慕容七七手中的骨针，晋墨认识，这是师傅最宝贝的东西，竟然在慕容七七手里！ 这太不可思议了！
“你从哪儿偷的！”
“晋墨，在你心目中，我的人品就那么差劲么？”
慕容七七冷哼一声，这会儿才知道晋墨对自己的成见到底有多大，“难怪老头子不喜欢你，你果然很不讨喜。
还好，老头子最后得了我这么个宝贝徒弟，所以就把犀牛针传给了我。”
“老头子？
！” 晋墨彻底僵硬了，如果慕容七七说的是真的，那她就是他的师妹，她竟然用“老头子”来出师傅！
“当然。”
慕容七七手指上多了一枚古朴的银戒指。
看到银戒指，晋墨心中的疑惑彻底被解开，立刻单膝跪下。 这戒指，是医圣身份的象征，现在晋墨彻底知道慕容七七的身份了。 她就是“莲公子”，那个被称为怪医的，他的小师弟。
当初，师傅在写给他的信中说的清清楚楚，已经将衣钵传给了小师弟“莲公子”，并且说了，见银戒如见他。 现在慕容七七拿出银戒指，晋墨才相信她。
“哟，大师兄，你怎么给我行这么大的礼啊！”
慕容七七缓缓走到晋墨身边，拿着银戒指在他眼前晃悠着，“方才不是不相信么？
非要我请出师傅的信物，你才相信，看来你倒是挺怕老头子么！”
慕容七七的调侃，晋墨听得明白，却不再还口。 刚才他都那样对慕容七七了，这会儿让她出出气又有何不可。
只是，晋墨实在没有想到“莲公子”竟然是女子，而且远在天边，近在眼前，竟然是慕容七七！ 这实在是太让人惊讶了！
原本以为怪医莲公子会神出鬼没，晋墨万万没有想到，这莲公子，会以这种身份，这样低调的生活在他身边。
小隐隐于野，中隐隐于市，大隐隐于朝。 她倒是把这句话发挥的淋漓尽致，又有谁会知道和亲的昭阳公主，人们眼里的废物，会是名动天下的怪医莲公子呢！
藏在凤苍身边，倒是个极好的去处。
晋墨和慕容七七的对话，如意隔得远，听不到，可是看到晋墨对慕容七七下跪，如意有些愣住了。
这位邪医除了王爷，谁都不买账，刚才还振臂高呼，恨不得杀了慕容七七，这会儿却又是这般模样，到底发生了什么事情？ 如意心里升起了一个大大的问号。
让晋墨又跪了一会儿，慕容七七心里的气才平息下来。 晋墨虽然有些不近人情，但是对师傅却极其尊敬，这银戒指，原本就是医圣的信物。 见戒指如见师傅，这个观念在晋墨大脑里面已经根深蒂固了！
“大师兄，起来吧！ 地上冷。”
收了银戒指，慕容七七亲自把晋墨扶了起来。
知道慕容七七是故意的，晋墨只能苦笑。 先前给了她很多脸色，没想到她都记下来了。
“我，是应该叫你小师妹，还是公主？”
再看慕容七七，晋墨有些不自在。 既然慕容七七是小师妹，那她是不会伤害凤苍的。
慕容七七抬起头，眯眼看着晋墨，“大师兄，现在你应该告诉我凤苍的事情了。
胎毒、寒毒、蛊毒，到底是谁下的？”
“不知道。”
晋墨苦笑着摇了摇头，“我是大夫，我的任务就是救死扶伤。
至于那些过去，没必要弄那么清楚！” 晋墨这么说，慕容七七恨不得撬开他的脑袋看看他在想什么。
知道病人过去的经历，才能更好的琢磨下毒人的心思，也就能更多了解毒的信息，更能帮助解毒，这点儿莫非他不清楚？
“师兄是想隐瞒，还是真不知道？”
“你既然想了解，不如亲自去问王爷。”
晋墨话音刚落，就听见如意的声音，“王妃，先生，王爷醒了。”
“王爷醒了！” 慕容七七听到这消息，心立刻雀跃起来，这是她听到的最好的消息了，立刻跑向凤苍，跑之前对晋墨说了句，“还请大师兄帮我隐瞒身份！ 多谢了！”
来到凤苍面前，慕容七七看着凤苍再次乌黑的眼，激动不已，一下子扑到凤苍怀里，“凤苍，你觉得怎么样？
有没有哪里不舒服？”
不得不说，晋墨的医术是高明的，凤苍现在已经恢复了本来面貌，不再像刚才那样可怕。
睁开眼就能看到慕容七七，就能抱着她，让凤苍忐忑的心平静了下来。 刚才，他真的很担心慕容七七会因为丑陋的自己而离开，没想到刚醒来她居然就在旁边。
“卿卿，不好意思，让你担心了！”
凤苍轻轻地搂住慕容七七，下巴蹭着她的乌发，“对不起，之前那么凶的对你，还吓着你，对不起！”
“王爷，你要是跟我道歉，就太见外了。 今天是我不好，如果我知道王爷身体不适，就不会要王爷陪我出来，王爷也不会突然犯病。 是我不好！”
慕容七七心疼地将凤苍的头发拢好，小手轻轻地抚摸凤苍冰凉的脸。
“只是，下次遇到不舒服的事情，王爷一定要告诉我，要让我知道。 看着王爷难受，自己却什么都帮不上，这样的我感觉很没用！”
想到凤苍承受的那些苦，慕容七七就觉得心疼。 他身上的寒毒和蛊毒至少有十年，胎毒从出生就有，真不知道这些年他是怎么活下来的！ 一定很辛苦，很辛苦吧！
“卿卿，你是为我落泪么？”
看着慕容七七小小的下巴上的那颗晶莹剔透的泪珠，凤苍忍不住再次将她抱在怀里。
之前不告诉慕容七七，是怕她担心，更怕她离开自己，现在想来，他那些想法都应该统统抛弃。 他的女人，又怎么会有寻常女人的那种想法呢！
“下次一定不瞒着你了，真的，我向你保证！”
雪地上，这对情人旁若无人地诉说着衷肠。 如意非常懂事地退了下去，晋墨深深地看了一眼慕容七七，也退到了一边。
如果说，之前他还觉得慕容七七接近凤苍是别有用心的，现在，算是彻底放心了。 正好师傅信中说这个小师妹医术高明，他应该和她好好切磋切磋，尽快找到治好凤苍的办法。
只是，晋墨不知道慕容七七为何要把身份瞒着凤苍，她会武，又会医，这对凤苍来说是最好不过的，为何要瞒着呢？
此时的慕容七七，已成了晋墨心目中凤苍妻子的最佳人选。 如果慕容七七知道，晋墨是希望有个懂医术的来照顾凤苍，知道他的一切想法都是为凤苍考虑，一定会好好思索一下晋墨对凤苍到底是什么情感态度。
如意这边儿，晋墨简单地解释了一下对慕容七七的误解，末了直接让他“封口”，别告诉凤苍他们发生争执，以及慕容七七有武的事情。
“先生，王妃会武功，是好事儿啊，为什么不让王爷知道呢？”
如意脑子直，不明白这里面的意思。 让他瞒着凤苍，那是不可能的，除非，有一个确实需要的理由。
原来如此！
王妃故意藏着自己的武功，就是为了保护王爷啊！ 他们虽然是王爷的贴身侍卫，但总有疏忽的时候，到时候有王妃，就不用担心了！
等凤苍一行回到车队的时候，苏眉和素月立刻迎了上来，“小姐，你没事吧！
去了哪儿，这么久，让我们好担心！”
“我没事。”
慕容七七话还没说完，完颜宝珠就冲了过来，“苍哥哥，你去哪儿了？”
看到完颜宝珠一脸担心的模样，和她后面跟来的穆羽蝶，慕容七七故意依偎在凤苍怀里，“王爷，以后也要带人家散心哟！
每天闷在马车里，真是难受死了，还是出去二人世界比较好！”
一听凤苍和慕容七七单独出去“约会”，完颜宝珠和穆羽蝶脸色立刻变了。
这个慕容七七，每天都在凤苍的马车上缠着他，现在又和他出去，真是一点儿都不知道“羞耻”为何物。
当下，穆羽蝶就开口为难慕容七七，“昭阳公主，你和王爷还没有成亲，有道是男女授受不亲，还请公主自重。”
慕容七七仿佛听到了天大的笑话，看穆羽蝶的眼神里充满了嘲讽，“好歹我和王爷也有婚约，男女婚前培养感情也属正常。
穆小姐倒是懂得自重，可是为什么每次都巴巴地往我家王爷身边凑呢！”
“我，我没有！”
被慕容七七这样说，穆羽蝶脸涨的通红。
她不像完颜宝珠，喜欢凤苍，弄得人尽皆知。 她是低调的，含蓄的，默默地看着凤苍，希望他某天转身能注意到她的存在。 所以，被慕容七七当中点出自己的心思，穆羽蝶有些恼羞成怒。
“啧啧！”
看着穆羽蝶那张秀丽的脸，红得像猴子屁股似的，慕容七七轻笑一声，头靠在凤苍胸口。
反正这些女人是恨死她了，永远都是做不了朋友的，何必要在她们为难自己的时候，还给她们留面子呢！
如果我没记错，穆小姐可是年初就过了20岁生辰的。 隐瞒年纪参加比赛，要是被查出来，知道的人会说小姐爱慕我家王爷，刻意隐瞒年龄接近王爷，不知道的人还指不定会怎么编排我家王爷呢！”
慕容七七一口一个“我家王爷”，让凤苍极其享受，通过这段时间的观察，凤苍发现慕容七七的占有欲还挺强的。 这点儿，让凤苍非常满意。
慕容七七只是一句话，就让凤苍把穆羽蝶给打发走了，让众人不得不对这位昭阳公主刮目相看，也清楚地认识到了她在凤苍心中的位置。
“不，王爷，我不走！ 我是真心想参加争霸赛，真心想为国争光的！”
穆羽蝶万万没想到慕容七七会这么“狠”，竟然容不下她！
这五年一次的四国争霸赛极其难得，上次比赛她因病未能参加，这次却已经过了年纪。 还是她在祖父面前苦苦求了很久，最后穆丞相在皇上面前又说了好话，才许了她来。 没想到慕容七七只是一句话，就让她美梦破碎！
“本王相信穆小姐的真心，只是规矩对四国都是如此，北周国也不能例外。”
凤苍的回话冷冰冰的，完全不似对慕容七七那般温柔。
请您允许我观赛！ 我想见识见识四国争霸赛，您别送我回去！” 若是平时，穆羽蝶吃瘪，完颜宝珠只有拍手叫好的份儿，可是今天完颜宝珠却一点儿都开心不起来。
好歹她和穆羽蝶也有共同的敌人——慕容七七，如果少了穆羽蝶，那她的力量不就是薄弱了一分？ 多一个人也多一份力啊！
想到这儿，完颜宝珠也上前为穆羽蝶求情，“表哥，既然穆小姐年龄过了限制，不能参加比赛，就让别人替补。 只是我们已经出来这么久，现在让她一个女孩子回去，孤苦伶仃的，不安全，也说不过去。
完颜宝珠说话的时候，顺便给另外几个选手使眼色。 公主都开口了，他们也不好拒绝，也都一同上来为穆羽蝶求情。
“卿卿，你觉得呢？”
对这些人，凤苍完全没放眼里，直接低头问慕容七七的意思。
完颜宝珠那些个颜色，慕容七七都看的清楚明白，看来她和穆羽蝶现在站在统一战线上了。 如果把穆羽蝶送了回去，完颜宝珠不就势单力薄了？ 那她哪儿有能力来“欺负”自己，她慕容七七又怎么有机会一次扳倒俩呢！
“既然公主都开口求情了，这个面子当然是要给，不然就显得王爷不近人情了。 还是，让穆小姐留下吧！
慕容七七的话引了一人的笑声，完颜康踩着雪，来到他们面前，嘴角依旧挂着坏坏的笑，手却在侧面给了慕容七七一个大拇指，“表哥，你和表嫂出去二人世界，倒是让我们好等。
下次不如带上我们吧！ “本王介意！”
凤苍拥着慕容七七上了马车，留下一句冷冰冰的话，“本王最讨厌跟屁虫！”
凤苍的话一丢出来，穆羽蝶差点儿哭了。 一定是慕容七七在凤苍面前嚼了舌根，所以他才会在众人面前这样羞辱她，一定是的！ 若之前，穆羽蝶对慕容七七的恨意只是五分，现在直接升级为十分。
看着穆羽蝶的样子，完颜宝珠开心不起来。 凤苍这些天对她也是冷冰冰的，无论她打扮的成熟艳丽，还是清纯可人，他的目光始终锁定在慕容七七身上，身边也始终只有一个慕容七七。
现在，凤苍看似是羞辱穆羽蝶，又何尝不是在给她警告呢！
“公主，忍一时风平浪静。”
仇儿悄悄走到完颜宝珠身边，“等到了雍州城，让她哭都哭不出来。”
仇儿的话，让完颜宝珠想到了她们最近设计的一件事儿，心情稍微好了些。
“人都联系好了么？ 到时候可别出了岔子！”
“公主放心，都安排妥当了，只等着到雍州。”
慕容七七，你毁了我，我也要让你尝尝被毁的滋味。 姑且让你再得意几天吧！ 到时候我要让你生不如死！

What kind of face is this, ah?……Mottled bruises covered Feng Cang’s body like rivers. The original handsome appearance was completely gone. What could be seen was several gorges, covering Feng Cang’s face completely like a monster from science fiction stories. Those with a weak heart may already have fainted due to fright!
And Feng Cang’s eyes were purple! Even Murong Qi Qi, who had time traveled, when facing that pair of clean like crystal purple eyes, would lose her soul.
Although inside Murong Qi Qi’s eyes, there wasn’t a trace of disgust, but Feng Cang sensed that she had been scared. He quickly lowered his head and pulled the cloak to block his face, but he didn’t expect to be stopped by Murong Qi Qi.
“What’s going on? Why is it like this?”
After the surprise, Murong Qi Qi’s mood turned into anger. Why? Who did this?
“Don’t look!”
Feng Cang used his hands to block his face, but then he remembered that his hands were also so ugly. In the end, he turned and faced Murong Qi Qi with a desolate back.
A touch of despair rose inside Feng Cang’s heart. Aside from Ji Xiang, Ruyi, Jin Mo and housekeeper Feng Qi, Murong Qi Qi was the fifth person who saw his true situation. If it wasn’t because of the disease suddenly acting up today, he would have kept this secret forever.
Pain entangled his whole body. However, how could this kind of pain be comparable to the pain and the sadness in his heart? How could it be comparable to the despair when Murong Qi Qi leaves? ……Finished, all is finished. She saw everything. She would certainly treat him as a monster. She didn’t say anything for half a day. She must certainly be scared.
Why did the disease act up during the day? Why did he let her see?! Feng Cang fiercely scolded himself in his heart. He wanted to beat his head, but unexpectedly because of a trance, he knelt on the ground. The pain spread throughout his body. His breathing became increasingly more difficult.
If he had known that it’ll be like this, should he not have been this greedy? Should he not have wished for love? Should he not have trapped her at his side?
Feng Cang’s consciousness gradually weakened. Not waiting for Murong Qi Qi to lend an arm of support, he directly planted forward into the snow.
Thinking till here, Murong Qi Qi collected a lot of dead branches. She lit them up and used the smoke to signal the people searching for them. She sat beside Feng Cang and checked his pulse.
This pulse let Murong Qi Qi’s expression turn bad.
Gu poison, fetal poison, cold poison……no wonder his body was so cold. No wonder he needed to take such a thick concoction every day. Who hurt him? Who did it?
The fetal poison was easy to understand. He had gotten poisoned when he was in his mother’s womb. The poison transferred from his mother’s body to his body and was absorbed by the baby. As for the cold poison, he certainly got it after his body experienced hotness and was then placed in bone-piercing cold water. As for the gu poison, it seemed to have some years.
However, this gu was a bit different from those Murong Qi Qi had dealt with in the past. It seems that’s it’s a baby gu. It’s just that if it’s a simple gu, with Jin Mo’s ability, he would definitely be able to cure him. Why was it that Feng Cang was still like this?
Murong Qi Qi tried her best to keep a clear mind. She once again carefully checked Feng Cang’s body. This checking made Murong Qi Qi inhale a deep breath!
Very vicious person, ah! His body has cold poison and this gu actually is the hot kind. The two mutually restrained each other which made Feng Cang stay alive till now. If the gu poison was removed, the cold poison would activate. If the cold poison was removed, then the gu, because there’s no ‘cold’ restriction, would reproduce like crazy.
Looking at his appearance, he seemed to have gotten the gu after the cold poison. To be more exact, one happened after the other, that’s why he was able to keep his life. If it’s like that, then the one who gave him the gu was also the one who let him be infected with the cold poison. Wanting him to die, but not wanting him to die too quickly. So, that’s why that person tortures him like this. Bit by bit, that person consumed his life.
Fortunately, Jin Mo has been at Feng Cang’s side. It seemed that he followed him (FC) for ten years. So to say, Feng Cang must’ve gotten this disease before that.
Not even born yet and already has been poisoned. Later, the cold poison and the gu poison appeared. Who hates Feng Cang like this? Who is so hostile towards Feng Xie and princess Ming Yue’s son? Being the great general’s son, Feng Cang must’ve gotten very good care after being born. Why is it that the evil person still got the opportunity to hurt him? Who is the one who harmed Feng Cang like this?
Multiple questions appeared in Murong Qi Qi’s head. She couldn’t think about the reason behind this in such a short moment. After seeing Feng Cang’s face turning so black, Murong Qi Qi took out her self-made medicine ‘Warm incense pill’. She opened Feng Cang’s black lips and stuffed it inside his mouth.
Warm incense pill was a good medicine to ease the cold poison. It’s just that both the cold poison and the gu poison were acting up at the same time. If only the cold poison was eased, then the gu would go rampant. Must curb the gu!
Murong Qi Qi once again collected a lot of dead branches, making the fire very big. Then she took off Feng Cang’s clothes.
When they went out, she didn’t bring the medicine case. Fortunately, she’s used to carrying some silver needles on her, which was now useful.
When Jin Mo arrived, he saw the scene of Murong Qi Qi putting needles inside Feng Cang. He immediately shouted: “Stop!”
His whip flew out. Just when it’s about to hit Murong Qi Qi’s hands, it got seized by Murong Qi Qi.
“What are you doing?!”
Jin Mo’s heart raised to his throat. When he saw Feng Cang’s appearance, he panicked. In the end, the disease still acted up! It actually acted up in such a ghost-like place!
“Go away! Let me!”
Just the thought of Murong Qi Qi bringing Feng Cang out and that’s why Feng Cang became like this, Jin Mo’s expression turned bad. He pushed Murong Qi Qi away and put down his medicine chest. He took out the silver needles. After sterilizing, he stuck them into Feng Cang’s body.
Feng Cang’s appearance also scared Ruyi. Fortunately, they saw the thick smoke lit by Murong Qi Qi and rushed over here in time.
What surprised Ruyi was that Murong Qi Qi seemed to not have been scared by such a wangye.1 If it wasn’t because of Murong Qi Qi’s signal, don’t know where they would have been searching now. So to say, they needed to thank Murong Qi Qi. Otherwise, they don’t know what kind of trouble might have happened.
“Thanking wangfei!”2
Ruyi went to Murong Qi Qi and bowed in front of her. Not waiting for Murong Qi Qi to speak, Ruyi went to find dead branches to let the fire go more higher. Such a cold day, it’s not good to let wangye get a cold! Murong Qi Qi didn’t speak and stood beside Jin Mo. Looking at him using the needle, she stood nearby, acting the supporting role.
Jin Mo was concentrating very hard and didn’t notice that the person next to him was Murong Qi Qi. When he finished with the acupuncture on Feng Cang, Jin Mo wiped away his sweat. He turned his head and saw that the person beside him was Murong Qi Qi. Jin Mo’s temper came again: “What are you doing here?”
“How long did wangye had the gu poison? How long did he have the cold poison? What kind of poison is the fetal poison?”
Murong Qi Qi expression was very serious. She didn’t seem to see the disrespect coming from Jin Mo.
Murong Qi Qi pointing out all the problems of Feng Cang at once, startled Jin Mo. Thinking back to the treatment of just now, Feng Cang’s body seemed to be a lot warmer. He definitely took some kind of medicine. Thinking about it more, it’s certainly Murong Qi Qi who had fed him that. Jin Mo’s mood turned a little better.
Jin Mo put the clothes on Feng Cang. “Princess only needs to be good to wangye. Next time, don’t be so willful and go to such a remote place!”
Murong Qi Qi could understand Jin Mo’s attitude towards her. Living together for a time, Murong Qi Qi could see Jin Mo’s loyalty to Feng Cang. This person has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. Although every time, he complained that Feng Cang didn’t cooperate well with the treatment, but every time he will treat it extremely serious. Besides, just now Murong Qi Qi saw Jin Mo’s acupuncture skills. His skills are not bad. No wonder master often praised this eldest senior brother.
However, now he’s concealing Feng Cang’s case from her, which made her unhappy. Very unhappy.
“I’m asking you, when was wangye poisoned with the gu? When was the cold poison put in his body? What kind of poison is the fetal poison?”
“No comment!”
The moment Jin Mo’s voice fell, on his neck was a cold dagger.
“Say! Otherwise, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
Murong Qi Qi’s expression had never been so serious. She had never thought that Feng Cang would be ill like this. Outsiders only knew about this Nan Lin wang’s fame, how would they know that he is so pitiful? Murong Qi Qi couldn’t imagine what taking bitter concoctions for more than ten years is like. She couldn’t imagine what kind of torture it’s to him to bear such a pain every month!
This man had always been tender and considerate to her. He always had been pleasant and never said a bad word. He had been holding her in the palm of his hands, but she didn’t even know he had such diseases. Murong Qi Qi blamed herself very much. They obviously stayed together day and night and she’s also a doctor, but she didn’t know he was so ill!
Jin Mo never seen such an expression on Murong Qi Qi before. He saw her self-blame very clearly. It’s just, what point does it have to blame herself now?
Jin Mo humphed coldly. He seized Murong Qi Qi’s wrist and threw her hand off. “Princess, don’t cause more trouble!”
Not waiting for Jin Mo to turn around, he got kicked down by Murong Qi Qi. He fell onto the ground and ate a mouthful of snow.
“Say! Or die……”
Now, Murong Qi Qi was different from usual. Her whole body emitted coldness. The tone was also no longer gentle. It became more tough. And her foot stepped on Jin Mo’s back. Not light nor heavy, but that strength made him unable to get up or move.
Thinking till here, Jin Mo shouted once and kicked at Murong Qi Qi. He stood up and moved to the other side.
The wind blew past. Jin Mo’s thin lips were held tightly together. His eyes looked sharply at Murong Qi Qi.
This woman changed appearance. She was no longer the cowardly and lazy person. The aura exuding from her body was something no one could ignore. How could such a woman be the ‘rubbish’ from the rumors?!
“Who the hell are you?”
Jin Mo’s blue robe was blown up by the wind. His black hair fluttered with the wind.
“What’s the matter with wangye? Don’t let me ask for the third time!”
“Does princess really care about what’s wrong with wangye? Since princess is really worried, why don’t you confess what your true identity is? Otherwise, Jin Mo will think that princess stayed at wangye’s side with ulterior motives and will get rid of princess as a spy!”
Jin Mo slowly raised his hand. He actually picked up some branch as a weapon.
“Jin Mo has never used his hands on women. Today, I will make an exception for princess! Princess, flash your weapon.”
Ruyi just came back from picking up firewood. He didn’t expect to see the scene of Jin Mo and Murong Qi Qi confronting each other.
“Sire, you are……” “She knows martial arts. She is Xi Qi’s spy!”
Jin Mo used two sentences to put out his judgement of Murong Qi Qi. The moment Ruyi heard that Murong Qi Qi was harmful to Feng Cang, he immediately put down the firewood. He rushed to Feng Cang’s side and pulled out his sword. He looked guardedly at Murong Qi Qi.
“Ah……” Murong Qi Qi never expected that Jin Mo’s prejudice towards her was so deep. Since it’s like that, it’s time to teach this senior brother a good lesson to let him know how to take care of his junior sister.
“I don’t like seeing blood. Since that’s the case, I also choose a branch. But, I only compete with you for three strokes. If you lose, you need to tell me about wangye’s disease!”
“You’re too confident!”
“So sure. Could it be that you are expecting that when wangye wakes up, he’ll come protect you? No need for three strokes, one stroke is enough to get rid of you!”
“Oh?” Jin Mo’s words let Murong Qi Qi laugh out loud.
A ‘try’ wasn’t finished yet, when Murong Qi Qi already disappeared in front of Jin Mo. When Jin Mo found out that something was beside him, Murong Qi Qi’s palm wind was already close to his temples and cut off a few strands of hair.
“One stroke!”
Not waiting for Jin Mo to attack, Murong Qi Qi went back to her place.
Everything happened so fast as though nothing had happened at all. The palms of Ruyi were full of sweat. He was level seven and didn’t see how Murong Qi Qi attacked. How many more secrets did this wangfei have? If she really was harmful to wangye, then what should they do?
Jin Mo was also frozen. Her wind palm was very terrifying. He had never seen anything like it before. This woman was not simple as only knowing martial arts, but she was actually a top master! Just now, she acted so just to give him a lesson. If she really wanted his life, he would’ve been a corpse now.
Murong Qi Qi spread her palm and showed Jin Mo the few strands of hair she cut just now. While she was at it, she blew the few strands of hair to let them fall to the ground. Murong Qi Qi’s eyes were full of provocation. The smirk on her mouth was very obvious as if to say: “Look, you’re just so-so!”
Sure enough, being stimulated by Murong Qi Qi like this, made Jin Mo angry!
The body and hair are the parents. Murong Qi Qi actually treated his hair like that, making Jin Mo furious. His teeth made grinding noises. The eyes looking at Murong Qi Qi were full of coldness. Just now, he was careless and fell into this woman’s trap. Now, he would not be like that!
“I’m going to kill you!”
Jin Mo rushed towards Murong Qi Qi like lightning. The branch in his hand has long been changed into silver needles. ‘Sou, sou, sou……’ they flew towards Murong Qi Qi.
Jin Mo making his attack let Ruyi feel sweat for Murong Qi Qi.
Although he didn’t know what had happened, but Jin Mo followed wangye1 for ten years. He wouldn’t lie. Besides, Murong Qi Qi indeed knows martial arts. This was something they didn’t expect. It made Ruyi believe Jin Mo’s words even more.
It’s just that, saying Murong Qi Qi was Xi Qi’s spy, Ruyi didn’t believe that either. After all, getting along for such a long time, he felt that Murong Qi Qi was a good person. At least, her heart must’ve moved for wangye and she also didn’t look like the bad guys. Now that Jin Mo had changed the branch for silver needles; he obviously had the intention to kill, making Ruyi feel anxious.
If Jin Mo really slipped and killed Murong Qi Qi, what would Feng Cang do when he wakes up? Ruyi saw very clearly wangye’s good feelings towards Murong Qi Qi these past few days. Ever since this little wangfei2 showed up, the smiles appeared a lot more on wangye. Even Ruyi, who had been at his side for so long, was surprised.
If Jin Mo died, then there would be no one left who could treat Feng Cang’s disease. By then, what could they do? Should they just watch wangye die?!
In just one moment, Ruyi’s brain experienced a strong struggle. No! He must stop Jin Mo! No matter who Murong Qi Qi is, it’s wangye who should make the decision!
Thinking till here, Ruyi intended to rescue Murong Qi Qi. However, those silver needles were only an inch away from Murong Qi Qi. Murong Qi Qi didn’t dodge or hide. She seemed to not know that danger was coming at her.
With no time left to use an attack to stop, Ruyi could only shout to warn Murong Qi Qi.
Jin Mo was surprised that Ruyi was helping Murong Qi Qi. It also let him have a more ‘profound’ understanding of Murong Qi Qi. Ruyi followed Feng Cang since an early age, so how did Murong Qi Qi bribe him in such a short period?! This woman was indeed a devil!
Thinking till here, Jin Mo’s attacks became more ruthless.
Murong Qi Qi still didn’t move. Only when the silver needles were almost in her eyes, did she wave her hands and let the silver needles enter her sleeves. She then turned her hands and shot the silver needles back at Jin Mo.
One attack, ‘falling flowers, flowing water’, made Jin Mo stunned. By the time he came out of the daze, the silver needles had already pierced his shoulders. He felt a burst of numbness. Oh no, there’s anaesthetic on the needles! The numbness on his body immediately let Jin Mo think about the anesthetic Murong Qi Qi had previously smeared on the dagger.
“Ah, my master taught me!”
“Who is your master?”
Jin Mo was even more puzzled. Master didn’t accept female disciples. Impossible. Murong Qi Qi and him absolutely didn’t come from the same master!
Seeing that Jin Mo didn’t believe it, Murong Qi Qi took out a bone needle. “Jin Mo, do you recognize this?”
“Rhinoceros needle!”
Jin Mo recognized the bone needle in Murong Qi Qi’s hand. This was master’s most treasured thing. It was actually in Murong Qi Qi’s hands! This was too incredible!
“Where did you steal it from?!”
“Jin Mo, in your heart, is my character so bad?”
Murong Qi Qi humphed coldly. Now she knew how much prejudice Jin Mo held against her.
“No wonder the old man doesn’t like you. You really are not likeable. Fortunately, in the end, old man got such a treasure apprentice like me. That’s why he passed me the rhinoceros needle.”
“Old man?!”
Jin Mo was completely startled. If what Murong Qi Qi said was true, then she’s his junior sister. She actually called master old man! So rude! So disrespectful!
“Of course.”
On Murong Qi Qi’s finger appeared an ancient silver ring.
Seeing the silver ring, the doubts in Jin Mo’s heart disappeared. He immediately knelt on one knee. That ring was the symbol for the status of the holy doctor. Now, Jin Mo definitely knew Murong Qi Qi’s identity. She was Lian gongzi, the one who was nicknamed strange doctor, his junior brother.
Before, in the letter master wrote to him, he said clearly that he passed down his legacy to his (JM) little junior brother Lian gongzi. He also said that seeing the silver ring was like seeing him. Only after Murong Qi Qi took out the silver ring, did Jin Mo believe her.
“Yo, eldest senior brother, why are you giving me such a big bow?!”
Murong Qi Qi slowly walked to Jin Mo and swung the silver ring in front of him.
“Just now, didn’t you not believe me? I had to take out master’s token for you to believe me. It seems that you’re quite afraid of the old man, ah!”
Jin Mo understood that Murong Qi Qi was making fun of him, but he no longer talked back. Just now, he treated Murong Qi Qi like that. Why shouldn’t he let her lessen her anger?
It’s just, Jin Mo never thought that Lian gongzi would be a woman. Besides, he believed that he (Lian) was living at the ends of the earth, but actually he’s right under their noses and was Murong Qi Qi! This is really too surprising! Master praised Lian gongzi very much and boasted that he was a rare genius of hundred years.
Originally, he thought that strange doctor Lian gongzi appeared and disappeared unpredictably. Jin Mo never expected Lian gongzi having this identity and living so low-key at his side.
Small obscurity is like an open space. Middle obscurity is like a market. Big obscurity is like the imperial morning court. She played out this poem vividly. Who would know that the princess who had come to form a marriage alliance, princess Zhao Yang, the rubbish in the eyes of people, was also the strange doctor Lian gongzi whose fame shook the world! Hiding at Feng Cang’s place was indeed an excellent plan.
Meaning of the poem: the greater the genius, the more concealed he/she is
Ruyi was far away, so he didn’t hear Jin Mo and Murong Qi Qi’s talk, but after seeing Jin Mo kneel in front of Murong Qi Qi, Ruyi was somewhat shocked.
This evil doctor, aside from wangye, didn’t acknowledge anyone. Just now, he shouted that he wanted to kill Murong Qi Qi, but now he’s acting like this. In the end, what had happened? Inside Ruyi’s heart appeared a big question mark. If it wasn’t because he needed to take care of Feng Cang, he would’ve certainly gone over to see what’s happening!
Only after letting Jin Mo kneel for a while longer, did the anger inside Murong Qi Qi’s heart subside. Although Jin Mo was somewhat unreasonable, but he’s extremely respectful towards master. This silver ring was originally a keepsake of a doctor. Seeing the ring was like seeing master. This concept had been deeply ingrained inside Jin Mo’s head!
“Eldest senior brother, get up! The ground is cold.”
After putting away the silver ring, Murong Qi Qi personally helped Jin Mo up.
Knowing that Murong Qi Qi did it intentionally, but Jin Mo could only smile bitterly. Before, he gave her many bad faces, he didn’t think that she would have remembered them all. Indeed, it’s preferable to offend a vile character than to offend a woman. Especially women with such ability like Murong Qi Qi.
“I, should I call you little junior sister or should I call you princess?”
Looking at Murong Qi Qi once again, Jin Mo felt somewhat uncomfortable. Since Murong Qi Qi was his little junior sister, then she wouldn’t harm Feng Cang. Thinking back of those misunderstandings, Jin Mo felt somewhat embarrassed. He misunderstood a good person! However, he cannot be blamed entirely, ah. If Murong Qi Qi made her identity known earlier on, then these misunderstandings wouldn’t have happened at all.
“Princess.” Murong Qi Qi raised her head, narrowed her eyes and looked at Jin Mo.
“Eldest senior brother, now you should tell me the things about Feng Cang. Fetal poison, cold poison and gu poison; who did it?”
“I don’t know.”
Jin Mo laughed bitterly and shook his head.
“I’m a doctor. My task is to heal the dying. As for those things that happened in the past, there’s no need to know them clearly!”
Jin Mo saying that made Murong Qi Qi want to pry his head open and see what he was thinking. Knowing the patient’s past would enable them to understand the mind of the one who poisoned him better and also let them have more information about the antidote and help them more with detoxification. Could it be that he didn’t know this?
“Does senior brother want to conceal it, or does senior brother really not know?”
“Since you want to know, why don’t you go ask wangye in person?”
Jin Mo’s voice had just faded when they heard Ruyi’s voice: “Wangfei, mister, wangye has woken up.” “Wangye woke up!”
The moment Murong Qi Qi heard this, her heart jumped up from joy. This was the best news she’d ever heard. She immediately rushed to Feng Cang. Before she ran away, she said to Jin Mo: “Asking eldest senior brother to help me keep my identity a secret! Thank you!”
After arriving in front of Feng Cang, Murong Qi Qi’s eyes looked in the once again black eyes of Feng Cang. Excited, she suddenly flew into Feng Cang’s arms.
“Feng Cang, how are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
Must say that Jin Mo’s skills were excellent. Feng Cang was now restored to his original appearance and did not look as frightening as before.
When he opened his eyes, the fact that he was able to see Murong Qi Qi and hold her, let Feng Cang’s disturbed mind calm down. Just now, he was really afraid that Murong Qi Qi would leave him because of his ugly side. He didn’t expect that at the moment he had woken up, she was at his side.
“Qing Qing, I’m sorry, I let you be worried!”
Feng Cang gently hugged Murong Qi Qi. His chin rubbed her hair. “I’m sorry. Before I was so fierce towards you and scared you, I’m sorry!”
“Wangye, if you apologize to me, then it’s as if you’re regarding me as an outsider. Today, I was wrong. If I had known that wangye was feeling unwell, I wouldn’t have let wangye accompany me. Wangye also wouldn’t have suddenly gotten sick. I was wrong!”
Murong Qi Qi combed Feng Cang’s hair with her hands, full of heartache. Her hand gently touched Feng Cang’s cold face.
“However, next time, if wangye encounters uncomfortable things, wangye must tell me and let me know. Watching wangye being uncomfortable without being able to do anything made me feel very useless!”
While talking, Murong Qi Qi’s tears fell. Thinking about the pain Feng Cang had suffered, Murong Qi Qi felt heartache. The cold poison and gu poison in his body were at least ten years. He had the fetal poison since birth. Really don’t know how he survived all these years! It must’ve been very hard, very very hard!
“Qing Qing, are you crying for me?”
Looking at that drop of crystal-clear tear on Murong Qi Qi’s small chin, Feng Cang couldn’t help but take her once again in his embrace.
Before, he didn’t tell Murong Qi Qi, because he was afraid that she’d worry and even more afraid that she’d leave him. Thinking about it now, he should abandon all of those thoughts. How would his woman have the same thoughts as ordinary women?!
“Next time, I’ll surely not hide it from you. Really, I promise you!”
On the snow ground, these pair of lovers told their inner feelings as though no one else was around. Ruyi was very sensible and retreated. Jin Mo looked deeply at Murong Qi Qi and then also retreated to one side.
If saying that in the past, he thought that Murong Qi Qi had a hidden motive in approaching Feng Cang, now he was completely at ease. It so happened that master had said in the letter that this little junior sister was very skillful. He should discuss this with her and quickly find a cure for Feng Cang.
However, Jin Mo didn’t know why Murong Qi Qi wanted to hide her identity from Feng Cang. She has martial arts and knows medicine which is good for Feng Cang. Why does she need to keep it a secret?
At this time, Murong Qi Qi had already become the best candidate to be Feng Cang’s wife in Jin Mo’s eyes. If Murong Qi Qi knew that Jin Mo hoped for a wife who understood medicine in order to take care of Feng Cang; knowing that all his thoughts were in consideration of Feng Cang, she would certainly take a good guess as to what kind of feelings Jin Mo had towards Feng Cang.
To Ruyi, Jin Mo explained a bit about the misunderstanding between him and Murong Qi Qi in a simple way. In the end, he directed him to ‘seal’ his mouth and don’t tell Feng Cang about their dispute and that Murong Qi Qi had martial arts.
“Mister, it’s a good thing that wangfei has martial arts, ah. Why shouldn’t we let wangye know?”
Ruyi’s mind was simple and didn’t understand the hidden meaning inside. Letting him keep it from Feng Cang was impossible. Unless, there’s really a good reason.
“Let wangfei be wangye’s hidden dagger…….”
Jin Mo’s words were very simple. Ruyi understood immediately. So, it’s like that! Wangfei deliberately hid her martial arts in order to protect wangye, ah! Although they were wangye’s personal bodyguards, but there were times where they would be negligent. In that case, there would be wangfei. So, there’s no need to worry anymore!
When Feng Cang and the others returned to the entourage, Su Mei and Su Yue immediately came forward to greet them.
“Miss, is all alright with you?! Where did you go for so long, making us very worried?!”
“I’m fine.”
Murong Qi Qi hadn’t finished speaking yet, when Wanyan Bao Zhu rushed over, “Cang gege3, where did you go?”
Seeing the worried expressions on Wanyan Bao Zhu and Mu Yu Die, who had followed behind her, Murong Qi Qi deliberately nestled into Feng Cang’s arms.
“Wangye, in the future, you should take me to relax, yo! Being bored in the carriage every day really is too uncomfortable. It’s better to go outside and have a world with only two people!”
The moment Wanyan Bao Zhu and Mu Yu Die heard that Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi went out on a ‘date’, their expression immediately changed.
This Murong Qi Qi was wrapped around Feng Cang every day in the carriage and now she even went out with him, she really didn’t know what kind of thing ‘shame’ was.
Immediately, Mu Yu Die opened her mouth to make things difficult for Murong Qi Qi: “Princess Zhao Yang, you and wangye are not married yet. There’s a saying that men and women should not touch hands when they give or receive things. Asking princess to have self-respect.”
“Self-respect?” Murong Qi Qi acted like she heard the biggest joke. The eyes looking at Mu Yu Die were immediately full of sarcasm.
“In any case, wangye and I have a marriage agreement. Men and women cultivating feelings before the marriage is a normal thing. Miss Mu indeed knows what self-respect is, but why is it that every time, you’ll rush to gather yourself to be at my family’s wangye’s side?!”
“I, I didn’t!”
Being talked like that by Murong Qi Qi, made Mu Yu Die’s face become red.
She was not like Wanyan Bao Zhu who liked Feng Cang and made it known to everyone. She was a low-key and subtle person. She silently looked at Feng Cang, hoping that one day he’d turn around and notice her existence. So, her thoughts being pointed out by Murong Qi Qi, made Mu Yu Die ashamed into anger.
“Zeze!”
Looking at that beautiful face of Mu Yu Die which was now red like a monkey’s butt, Murong Qi Qi chuckled. Her head leaned against Feng Cang’s chest.
Anyway, these women already hated her to death. They could never be friends. Why should she give them face when they are making things difficult for her?!
“Doesn’t the rule say that a female player’s age can’t surpass eighteen? If I didn’t remember incorrectly, miss Mu’s age is already over twenty. If it’s found out that you have concealed your age to participate in the tournament, the people who know will say that miss is infatuated with our family’s wangye and deliberately hid your age to get close to wangye. The people who don’t know, really don’t know how they will see our family’s wangye!”
Murong Qi Qi deliberately saying ‘our family’s wangye’ repeatedly, made Feng Cang really happy. Through observing these talks, Feng Cang found out that Murong Qi Qi’s possessiveness was quite strong. This point made Feng Cang very satisfied. Only when a woman cares about a man did they become so overbearing. She wants to be bossy, he is willing to let her be!
Just one sentence from Murong Qi Qi was able to let Feng Cang make Mu Yu Die go away; it made people couldn’t help but have a whole new level of respect for her and they also became aware of her position in Feng Cang’s heart.
“No, wangye, I won’t go! I sincerely want to participate in the tournament! I sincerely want to bring glory to the country!”
Mu Yu Die never imagined that Murong Qi Qi would be so ‘vicious’ and wouldn’t tolerate her (MYD)!
This tournament between the four countries, which happened once every five years, was extremely rare. Because she was sick during the last tournament, she was unable to participate. This time, she’s over the age limit. It was only because she knelt, cried and begged for a long time in front of her grandfather, that in the end, prime minister Mu said some good words in front of the emperor. That’s why she was able to come.
“Benwang believes miss Mu’s sincerity, it’s just that the rules must be followed by all countries. Bei Zhou is no exception.”
Feng Cang’s answer was cold, unlike the gentleness he showed Murong Qi Qi.
“Wangye, not being able to participate in the tournament, alright! Please, asking you to allow me to watch the tournament! I want to experience what the tournament of the four countries is like. Don’t send me back!”
If it was as usual, Wanyan Bao Zhu would have clapped at Mu Yu Die suffering defeat. However, today Wanyan Bao Zhu didn’t feel any happiness. After all, she and Mu Yu Die have a common enemy……Murong Qi Qi. If there’s no Mu Yu Die, wouldn’t her (WBZ) power be weaker? One more person is one more force, ah!
Thinking till here, Wanyan Bao Zhu went forward to plead for Mu Yu Die: “Cousin, since miss Mu’s age surpassed the limit and she can’t participate in the tournament, let somebody take her position. However, we’ve been on the journey for so long. Now letting her, a woman, go back alone, it’s not safe and it’s not justifiable. Wouldn’t it better to let miss Mu go with us to Yongzhou?! Letting her only look at the tournament will also be good, ah!”
While Wanyan Bao Zhu was speaking, she gave the other candidates a meaningful glance. The princess already opened her mouth, they also couldn’t refuse. So, they all went forward and pleaded for Mu Yu Die.
“Qing Qing, what do you think?”
Feng Cang didn’t put those people in his eyes. He directly lowered his head to ask Murong Qi Qi.
Murong Qi Qi saw and understood all those glances of Wanyan Bao Zhu. It seemed that she and Mu Yu Die were now standing on the same side. If she sent Mu Yu Die back, then wouldn’t Wanyan Bao Zhu’s power weaken? Then where would she (WBZ) have the ability to ‘bully’ her (MQQ). And when would she, Murong Qi Qi, have the chance to pull down the two of the, at once?!
“Since princess opened your mouth to plead, this face, I should naturally give; otherwise, it’ll let people think that wangye is too inhumane. It’s better to let miss Mu stay! Speaking of which, she is also a pitiful person. Missing this opportunity, the next half of her life, she might not have this blessing anymore!”
“Puchi……” Murong Qi Qi’s words caused the laughter of one person. Wanyan Kang stepped on the snow and came towards them. His mouth was still wearing that black belly smile. He gave Murong Qi Qi a big thumbs up.
“Cousin, you and cousin-in-law went away to have the world for you two alone, really let people wait for a long time. Next time, why don’t you bring us along?! If you don’t mind……”
Feng Cang hugged Murong Qi Qi when he went inside the carriage, leaving a cold sentence: “Benwang hates bum beetles the most!”
The moment Feng Cang’s words came out, Mu Yu Die almost cried. It’s certainly Murong Qi Qi who gossiped in front of Feng Cang. That’s why he shamed her like this in front of everyone. It must be that! If before, Mu Yu Die’s hatred towards Murong Qi Qi was only fifty percent, now it has upgraded to one hundred percent.
Seeing Mu Yu Die’s expression, Wanyan Bao Zhu couldn’t become happy. These past few days, Feng Cang was also cold towards her. No matter how she dressed, mature and beautiful or pure and pleasant, his eyes were always locked onto Murong Qi Qi. At his side, there was also always Murong Qi Qi. Now, it looked like Feng Cang was shaming Mu Yu Die, but was it not also a warning to her?!
“Princess, endure temporarily, the breeze will be still and the waves will be quiet!”
Chou er5 quietly went to Wanyan Bao Zhu’s side.
“When we reached Yongzhou city, we’ll make it so that she won’t be able to cry even if she wanted to.”
Chou er’s words reminded Wanyan Bao Zhu about the thing they had planned recently. Her mood turned a bit better.
“Did you contact those people? Don’t make a mistake by then!”
“Princess, rest assured. All have been arranged properly. We only need to wait till we arrive at Yongzhou.”
Chou er revealed an evil smile. Her eyes also fell on Feng Cang and Murong Qi Qi’s carriage. Murong Qi Qi, you ruined me, I’ll also let you get a taste of what being ruined is like. I’ll let you be pleased for a few more days! When the time comes, I’ll let you feel that living is more painful than death!

The birds and beasts also broke apart, their carcasses having been crystalized. It all happened from the inside to the outside, but was all equally deadly. What’s more, there was no way that any of it could have been prevented!\nA crackling sound came from the veins and flesh in Su Yu’s body, which had also crystalized. He too would dissipate as he turned into a crystal form.\nKnowing that he had tried his best, he sighed in his heart and slowly closed his eyes. However, just as everything turned black before Su Yu’s eyes, a familiar bright golden light lit up the darkened world.\nThe gold light and the shadow figure that flashed by caused Su Yu to open his eyes once again. He was surprised. Thereafter, his face filled with a smile. It was her. Su Yu’s old friend!\nThe golden light engulfed the entire space, including Su Yu. At that moment, it transported him away from the cracking, crystalized world.\nAs he was being transported away, Su Yu could scarcely hear Zi Qianchou’s angry and shocked voice. “Lü Chuyi!”\nThat was right. In the final moment, she had chosen to return to help Su Yu after all!\nAs he was moving, the scenery around Su Yu changed. The only thing that did not change was the figure that was holding on to his arms. She looked magnificent in the golden light.\nWhen their feet finally landed on the ground, they had already moved about a hundred miles away. The place seemed scorched. Coincidentally, it was the abandoned place where Su Yu had battled the demon.\n“Thank you,” Su Yu said, while smiling at her.\nLü Chuyi did not face Su Yu as she spoke. “Do not be happy just yet. I only wanted to prevent the Real Spirit from falling into the hands of Zi Qianchou. That was why I came back.”\nShe secretly tucked her palm into one of her sleeves. However, Su Yu noticed her slight movement.\nA smear of blue crystal was caught by Su Yu’s pupils. Her left palm had been crystalized!\nIn other words, when crystals began forming within a hundred miles, she was still inside the area! In fact, she had pretended to leave in front of Zi Qianchou, but she had really just been hiding in the dark, so that she could come to Su Yu’s aid in the final moment! She had never intended to leave Su Yu behind!\n“Let me have a look at your hand.” Su Yu’s heart felt warm towards her.\nAlthough she appeared cool outwardly, her heart was truly kind. She reminded Su Yu of his savior, An Yurou, who had an ugly appearance, but possessed the heart of a gentle and kind lady.\n“I am fine…” As Su Yu’s compassion had melted Lü Chuyi’s heart, her tone had become much softer.\nIn the following moment of silence, neither Lü Chuyi nor Su Yu knew what to say. Su Yu looked at her figure from behind her, while she looked into the far distance. They both stood still. Their shared silence was better than any sound.\nHaving experienced what they just had, the gap between them seemed to disappear. The lost sense of familiarity was slowly healing.\n“I am leaving now. Take care of yourself!” Lü Chuyi did not turn back to look at him. “When you return to Jiuzhou’s Mysterious Heavenly Stage, if it is possible, seek protection from Yu Qiuhang. If he is willing to help you, you might be able to escape from this disaster!”\nYu Qiuhang was the old man who was skilled in the crafting of mechanism puppets. He had previously said in front of the crowd that when they returned to the Mysterious Heavenly Stage, anyone who wished to harm Su Yu would have to go through him to do so. Based on his personality, he seemed to be a man of his word.\nThe problem was that Su Yu was not planning on returning to Jiuzhou’s Mysterious Heavenly Stage. Thus, he and Lü Chuyi’s farewell today would perhaps be for forever.\n“Wait a moment.” Su Yu thought for a while. His soul entered the Nine Jade Spiritual Pearl to carefully retrieve the sapling of the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo. He then put it in a jade box and held it out to her.\n“This is a gift for you. There is no other way I can repay you for saving my life.” The sapling was an invaluable treasure to Su Yu. It was the key material for remaking the Nine Suns Cosmos Sword Formation.\nHe had wronged Lü Chuyi in the past, and he felt that he owed her a favor for saving his life. Moreover, this was perhaps the last time they would ever meet in this life. As such, Su Yu did not want to have any regrets.\nOf all the things he had, the only thing of interest to Lü Chuyi was perhaps the Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo. Hence, this was the most appropriate gift for her.\n“What is this?” Lü Chuyi turned back to look at it, but she did not recognize what it was.\n“Of the two seeds that you gave me, one of them died, while the other fortunately survived. This is a gift for you. Also, it rightfully belongs to you.” Su Yu smiled genuinely as he handed it to her.\nLü Chuyi was shocked. “The Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo? You managed to plant and grow it?”\nShe was very puzzled, as the bamboo required the blood essence of an All Creation Old Monster in order to grow. In fact, it required a hundred years of watering, day and night!\nHow did Su Yu accomplish it?\nHer white snowy eyes flashed with joy and surprise. The Heavenly Orchid Silver Bamboo was indeed extraordinarily important to her!\nHowever, as she noticed Su Yu’s smile, Lü Chuyi’s heart gradually became calm again. “I cannot accept it. Before it loses its Spiritual Qualities, you ought to find somewhere suitable to cultivate it.” Lü Chuyi then quickly turned away from Su Yu once again.\nSu Yu was surprised. “Why?” He was confused, as the bamboo was clearly very important to her.\nLü Chuyi turned around and smiled suddenly. Her smile was as beautiful as the sunlight in the middle of winter, and it gave someone a feeling of immense warmth.\n“I already got what I wanted, so I am satisfied.” Lü Chuyi smiled once again as she spoke the meaningful words. Thereafter, she flew across the sky and returned to Jiuzhou.\nLooking at her disappearing figure, Su Yu suddenly felt a little disappointed. “Goodbye…” Su Yu mumbled bitterly.\nPerhaps Lü Chuyi thought that they would still meet again at the Jiuzhou’s Mysterious Heavenly Stage. She clearly did not know that this farewell would most likely be their last.\nSuddenly, a black ancient scroll fell from Su Yu’s bosom and clattered on the ground."

古老卷轴开启，黑色劫火燃烧苍穹大地。 蓝色结晶如白雪般消融，化作蓝色雾气，逐渐褪去。
周身十里内，呈现真空。 苏羽体内的蓝色结晶，蔓延趋势也戛然而止。
紫千愁瞳孔骤然收缩，骇然之极，不假思索的身影狂退，丝毫不敢触碰劫火半分。 若是本体亲临，大可不必如此畏惧劫火，可身为灵魂体的他，稍一触碰就是灰飞烟灭。
此劫火，是比刚才灵魂火焰，可怕得多的东西！ 退出十里，紫千愁惊魂甫定，首度正式打量苏羽。
此子已经不是棘手能形容！ 好在，此子体内绝大部分真气被结晶封锁，令仙级功法只施展一成不到，否则他危险了。
此刻苏羽正在竭力压制结晶蔓延，正是斩杀最好时刻！
很好！ 灵魂火焰，仙级功法，我不管你是谁，有何身份，今日没人能救你！ ！”
紫千愁杀意滔天，此子绝不能留。 蓝色人偶往空中一抛，在紫千愁低喝中，砰然碎裂！
一同碎裂的，还有百里方圆内，整个被结晶化的世界。 山川草木，虫鱼鸟兽，但凡沦为结晶者，均随着人偶的碎裂，开始分崩离析。 依旧是从外到内，依旧是致命无比，依旧是无可抵挡。
冻结苏羽经脉和血肉的结晶，传来细微的咔擦音，他，也要化作晶片消散了。 他已经尽力了。
心中默默一叹，苏羽徐徐闭上眼。 但就在眼前黑暗刹那，一道熟悉的金色光芒，将黑暗世界点燃。
那金色，那光芒，还有那方倩影，令苏羽再度睁开眼，心中一片怔然，随后，唇角掀起一抹释然微笑。
金光笼罩一方天地，将苏羽包裹，在最后关头，把他从崩碎的结晶世界中，破空瞬移离去。
远去中，苏羽依稀听到，紫千愁吃惊和恼怒之音：“绿楚伊！
是的，她最后关头，还是回来了。 明明此时更加危险，明明已经选择了舍弃，明明可以不来。
天旋地转中，苏羽周身风景变换。 唯一没变的，是抓着他胳膊的倩影，在金光中，英姿飒飒。
当双脚落地，他们已经站立在百里外。 此地，一片焦墟，无巧无不巧，是苏羽与魔大战过的废墟之地。
“谢谢。” 苏羽会心一笑。
绿楚伊只给苏羽一个背影，并没有回头：“不用得意，我只是不想那只真灵落在紫千愁手里，适才突袭回来而已。”
她将所手掌，暗暗往袖中缩了缩。 细微的动作，并没有瞒过苏羽。
一抹蓝色晶莹，划过了苏羽眼眸。 她的左掌，结晶化了！
换而言之，百里空间开始结晶时，她就处在其中，而非刚才突然杀到！ 她当着紫千愁的面，只是佯装离去，真正的她隐藏在暗中，最后关头，突然出手将苏羽救下。
甚至，不惜手掌结晶，伤害到灵魂，也未曾逃走。 “给我看你的手。”
苏羽心中滚过一阵暖流，她虽面冷，心却热。 如同苏羽曾经的恩人，安玉柔，一位外貌丑陋，性格桀骜，内心却温柔如水的女子。
“我没事．．．．．．”苏羽流露出的怜惜，无声融化绿楚伊的心，不知不觉，口吻温和一些。 沉默片刻，绿楚伊无言，苏羽亦无言。
苏羽望着她的背影，她望着遥远的苍冥，双双怔然。 此时无声，胜有声。
他们历经此事，隔阂消失，失去的熟悉重新归来。
“我走了，你保重！” 绿楚伊没有回头，亦如当初离开那样：“回到九州天机台后，如有可能，寻找余秋航庇护，他若肯助你，当可避过此难！” 余秋航，正是擅长炼制机关傀儡的老者。
他曾当众坦言，回到九州天机台，谁动苏羽，先要问过他。
以他性格而言，多半是言而有信之辈。 问题是，苏羽并不会传送回九州天机台。
“等等。” 苏羽想了想，灵魂进入九碧灵珠，将刚刚发芽的天竺银竹幼苗，小心取出来，装进玉盒中。 “此物赠你，救命之恩，无以为报。”
这株幼苗，对苏羽而言，也是难得至宝，是日后重铸乾坤九阳剑阵的关键材料。 若有可能，他也不愿送人。
他对绿楚伊，有愧在先，有恩在后，而今，或许是此生最后一见，苏羽不愿留下遗憾。
他全身上下，唯一能令绿楚伊感兴趣的，大概唯有天竺银竹。 此物送她，最为合适。
“这是？” 绿楚伊回眸，却没有认出来。
“你交给我的两粒种子，一株死亡，一株侥幸存活，送给你，物归原主。” 苏羽诚挚一笑，坦然送出。
绿楚伊吃惊：“天竺银竹幼苗？ 你种活了？”
她只觉得匪夷所思，此竹必须以万象老怪的精血，日夜浇灌百年，方可成长。
种子更是需要大量万象老怪精血，苏羽如何做到？
其雪眸中，闪过阵阵涟漪，惊喜连连。 天竺银竹，对她的确异常重要！
只不过，当注意到苏羽微笑的面容，绿楚伊心情渐渐平静。 “我不能要，趁它灵性尚未流逝，赶快寻找合适之地好好栽培。” 绿楚伊收回目光，重新背对苏羽。
苏羽怔然：“为什么？” 此竹对她，明明那么重要。
笑容明媚，如春月阳光，暖人心扉。
“我已经得到想要的，已经知足。” 绿楚伊嫣然一笑，留给苏羽一句饱含意蕴的话语。
望着消失的倩影，苏羽默然失落，她想要的是什么，得到的又是什么？
“再见了．．．．．．”苏羽苦涩一笑，或许绿楚伊觉得，他们还能在九州天机台相见。
蓦然间，苏羽怀中掉落一本黑色的古卷。

As the ancient scroll opened, black disastrous flames started burning along the ground. The blue crystal melted away like snow, then turned into a blue mist and gradually faded away.
Within a ten mile radius, the air became a vacuum void. The spreading of the blue crystal in Su Yu’s body also came to a halt.
If it were his physical body, he would not have needed to be afraid of the disastrous flames. However, as it was his soul body, he knew that it would be eliminated if he came into contact with the flames! The disastrous flames were even more frightening than the soul flames had been!
After retreating until he was safely ten miles away, Zi Qianchou was finally able to calm himself down and properly evaluate Su Yu for the first time. This young man was beyond difficult to deal with!
The good thing was that most of the Vital Energy had already been sealed in Su Yu’s body, which limited his Fairy level cultivation technique to be activated at only one-tenth of its original strength. Otherwise, Zi Qianchou would have been in deep trouble!
Right then, Su Yu was still focusing on suppressing the spreading of the crystal in his body, making it the perfect time to kill him!
“Good! Very good! Soul flames and Fairy level cultivation technique… I do not care who you are or what status you have. No one can save you today!” Zi Qianchou’s killing intent shot through the roof. There was no way that this young man was going to live!
The blue puppet was tossed into the air, and with a shout from Zi Qianchou, it suddenly exploded! The entire crystalized world within a hundred miles exploded along with it. All of the mountains, rivers, grasslands and forests, together with the all of the beasts that had also been crystalized exploded together with the puppet.
The mountains broke into countless pieces as they exploded. The birds and beasts also broke apart, their carcasses having been crystalized. It all happened from the inside to the outside, but was all equally deadly. What’s more, there was no way that any of it could have been prevented!
A crackling sound came from the veins and flesh in Su Yu’s body, which had also crystalized. He too would dissipate as he turned into a crystal form.
Knowing that he had tried his best, he sighed in his heart and slowly closed his eyes. However, just as everything turned black before Su Yu’s eyes, a familiar bright golden light lit up the darkened world.
The gold light and the shadow figure that flashed by caused Su Yu to open his eyes once again. He was surprised. Thereafter, his face filled with a smile. It was her. Su Yu’s old friend!
The golden light engulfed the entire space, including Su Yu. At that moment, it transported him away from the cracking, crystalized world.
As he was being transported away, Su Yu could scarcely hear Zi Qianchou’s angry and shocked voice. “Lü Chuyi!”
That was right. In the final moment, she had chosen to return to help Su Yu after all!
As he was moving, the scenery around Su Yu changed. The only thing that did not change was the figure that was holding on to his arms. She looked magnificent in the golden light.
When their feet finally landed on the ground, they had already moved about a hundred miles away. The place seemed scorched. Coincidentally, it was the abandoned place where Su Yu had battled the demon.
“Thank you,” Su Yu said, while smiling at her.
Lü Chuyi did not face Su Yu as she spoke. “Do not be happy just yet. I only wanted to prevent the Real Spirit from falling into the hands of Zi Qianchou. That was why I came back.”
She secretly tucked her palm into one of her sleeves. However, Su Yu noticed her slight movement.
A smear of blue crystal was caught by Su Yu’s pupils. Her left palm had been crystalized!
In other words, when crystals began forming within a hundred miles, she was still inside the area! In fact, she had pretended to leave in front of Zi Qianchou, but she had really just been hiding in the dark, so that she could come to Su Yu’s aid in the final moment!

Looking at her disappearing figure, Su Yu suddenly felt a little disappointed. “Goodbye…” Su Yu mumbled bitterly.
Perhaps Lü Chuyi thought that they would still meet again at the Jiuzhou’s Mysterious Heavenly Stage. She clearly did not know that this farewell would most likely be their last.
Suddenly, a black ancient scroll fell from Su Yu’s bosom and clattered on the ground.

None of them strolls outside.\nIn the Nine Demons Hall’s main hall,\nThere is a throne on a raised platform. Below it, there are 4 thrones on either side. At the moment, 8 men who are dressed in purple brocade robes are sitting in the thrones. Only the 2nd throne on the left among the lower thrones is vacant.\nThe man sitting in the highest throne in the main hall has thick eyebrows and big eyes. His body naturally gives off a lordly air.\nThis purple-robed man is examining a 3-cun long jade sword in his hand. After looking at it carefully several times, he says: “This is the 6th of the legendary 9 Swords. It’s indeed a good sword, very good.” As he exclaims nonstop, his eyes blaze with excitement.\nThe 1st purple-robed man on the right below him, however, says critically: “Big brother, what’s good about it? Isn’t it just a top-grade holy weapon? Though top-grade holy weapons are pretty precious, this sword doesn’t deserve such fame. Except for some special functions, what’s good about this jade sword itself?”\n“What do you know?” The higher purple-robed man says laughingly.\nThe true forms of the Nine Demons Hall’s 9 brothers are Purple Demon aquatic dragons. Even though they are not divine dragons, they are close to divine dragons in power. A Purple Demon aquatic dragon can defeat 5 or 6 Xiuxianists of the same power level as it. Therefore, by joining forces, these 9 Purple Demon aquatic dragons were able to become one of the 3 superpowers at the bottom of the ocean.\nThe higher purple-robed man is the big brother among them, Di Long!\nDi Long looks at the jade sword with glittering eyes: “Brothers, you all know about those special functions. But this jade sword itself is also extraordinary. Let me tell you something. The material used to forge it was only a chunk of icy jasper.”\n“How is this possible?”\nBelow him, his 7 brothers are all astonished.\nIt is common knowledge that icy jasper is only a material to make middle-grade holy weapons and cannot be forged into high-grade holy weapons, let alone top-grade holy weapons.\nDi Long says with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth: “Don’t doubt it. This jade sword is only a key to open an immortal mansion. It’s simply impossible for you to imagine how powerful the immortal that forged this jade sword was. They certainly had the ability to perform miracles.”\n“The fact that this immortal was able to forge top-grade holy weapons from a middle-grade material reflects their power. What things are there in the mansion of an immortal like this? When even the keys to it are already 9 top-grade holy weapons, what treasures is it storing?” Di Long’s eyes glitter.\nThe eyes of his 7 brothers also glitter. It seems they are also thinking about the treasures in the immortal mansion.\nThe 3rd brother Di Xu says: “Big brother, according to our intelligence, 7 of the 9 jade swords have appeared. The Xiuxianists of the Penglai Immortal Region got 1. The Purple Flame Devilish Dungeon’s Xiumoists are lucky; they unexpectedly got 2. That azure dragon of the Azure Dragon Palace got 1. We got 1 and that 3-eyed old freak of the Blue Water Mansion also got 1. It seems Azure Dragon and 3-Eyed are contending for the 7th jade sword.”\nUnderwater Xiuyaoists are very powerful and the number of jade swords they have obtained also partly reflects this.\nThe big brother Di Long slightly nods and says smilingly: “There are many Xiuxian schools in the Penglai Immortal Region but they only got 1 jade sword so perhaps there’ll be an internal struggle among them for a while. As for the 7th jade sword that has just appeared, we won’t get involved with it. We’d better let Azure Dragon and the old freak 3-Eyed fight each other.”\nAzure Dragon of the Azure Dragon Palace and the 3-Blue-Eyed Toad of the Blue Water Mansion are 2 extremely powerful divine beasts. To put up a fight against either of them, the Nine Demons Hall will have to go all out.\n“Big brother, now that the 7th jade sword has appeared, where are the remaining 2?” The 9th brother Di Nai asks.\nDi Long says very confidently: “Nobody knows where the 9th sword currently is. But … I know where the 8th sword is. This time, 8th brother personally went out because of it. If my prediction is correct, 8th brother will succeed with ease.”\nThe 3rd brother Di Xu says smilingly: “9th brother, I know about this business too. Big brother told me to send subordinates to gather information about different camps and at the same time search for the jade swords. And I accidentally obtained the information about the 8th sword.”\nSearching for the jade swords.\nNot only has the Nine Demons Hall been searching for them, the Penglai Immortal Region, the Purple Flame Devilish Dungeon, the Azure Dragon Palace and the Blue Water Mansion have all sent experts to search for them everywhere as well. They have been searching the islands and the ocean and have even gone to the Qian Long continent to search.\nLuckily those Xiuyaoists, Xiuxianists and Xiumoists entered the Qian Long continent only to search for the jade swords rather than to take part in its internal affairs, or else the 3 big kingdoms on the continent would not be able to enjoy such a high level of stability.\n“The more jade swords the better. If we can obtain more jade swords, when the 5 superpowers unlock the immortal mansion later, our opinions will carry more weight and we’ll get more treasures. We’ll definitely obtain the 8th jade sword, so now we must try our best to find out where the 9th sword is!”\nDi Long stands up and glances at his brothers below him, saying: “Brothers, let’s try your hardest to gather information about the 9th sword now!”\n“Yes, big brother!”\n3 months has already gone by. The Blood-red Cave is still as calm as before.\nAt the moment in the secret room of the cave,\nCha Hong is sitting with legs crossed. A black jade case is floating in front of him. It is continuously sending out many rays of light. And Cha Hong’s powerful demonic elemental energy is neutralizing the energy of the case’s Dust Removing restrictive spell nonstop. At this point, even Cha Hong has become emotional.\nHe withdraws his hands and stops sending his demonic elemental energy into the case. There are various beads of sweat on his forehead at the moment. “Whew.”\nCha Hong’s eyebrows are drenched with sweat. Having been in possession of this black jade case for 100 years, today he has been able to ascertain that the case is going to be opened very soon. At that time he is going to obtain the treasure in the case and, as a result, have something to rely on to achieve his ambitions.\nXiuxianists’ Penglai Immortal Region, Xiumoists’ Purple Flame Devilish Dungeon, the Azure Dragon Palace, the Nine Demons Hall, and the Blue Water Mansion are absolutely the 5 strongest superpowers in the overseas Xiuzhen world.\nThe Blood-red Cave is only one of the 8 minor powers under the Nine Demons Hall. It is simply not in the same league as the 5 superpowers. Because of this, Cha Hong has been trying to lie very low and be very cautious, especially after obtaining the black jade case.\n“After 100 years, this bloody restrictive spell is finally about to break. The immortal that set it up was really ridiculous. Isn’t it just a dust-removing spell? Casually using a little power would’ve been enough. Why gave it so much energy?” Cha Hong says smilingly with a sigh.\nAt the moment he is in a fairly good mood.\nHowever, as soon as he remembers his 2nd brother Cha Po’s sudden death, he has a tinge of a bad feeling.\n“Hopefully nothing unexpected will happen at this final juncture. But … I definitely won’t let anyone snatch my treasure.” Cha Hong’s eyes glitter with coldness. Afterwards, he rests for a while to replenish his demonic elemental energy then continues to drain the energy of the Dust Removing restrictive spell.\n…… In Qin Yu’s courtyard house in the eastern part of the Blood-red Cave,\nHou Fei is sitting with legs crossed and eyes closed in the courtyard. There is a black stick next to him. He has been practicing this way for 3 whole months. But he has not been practicing with full concentration because he has been watching the surroundings closely using his holy sense.\nHe definitely will not let anybody interrupt Qin Yu’s training.\nQin Yu is practicing in the room guarded by Hou Fei. At the moment, his body is radiating an indistinct light similar to starlight. Stellar energy has formed a huge nebula that is enfolding him. Qin Yu is sitting with legs crossed above the bed.\nHe is currently sitting in midair. Suddenly!\nThe nebula spins faster. At the same time, the sun above the ocean unexpectedly shoots a blazing stream of energy down towards a deep place in the ocean through the water. This blazing energy stream comes straight into Qin Yu’s room in the Blood-red Cave then fuses with the nebula.\nImmediately, the color of the nebula becomes golden. Qin Yu is being surrounded completely in the golden light.\nA series of small sounds comes out from his entire body. His whole forehead is being covered in large beads of sweat. He has even begun to convulse due to acute pains but he is still trying to endure the pains because he knows he has reached a crucial point in practice.\nThe density of the silvery grains in his dantian has unexpectedly increased by 100%. Countless silvery grains are rotating very quickly. At the same time, various blazing streams of energy are entering the body from the outside. The muscles and bones in Qin Yu’s entire body are undergoing rapid and drastic transformations.\nEvery muscle, every bone and even every cell in his body are transforming very quickly. The toughness and flexibility of his body are being improved again and again.\nHot!\nThe Stellar Flame is blazing nonstop inside Qin Yu’s body, as if it is roasting him. The countless silvery grains in the space of his dantian start to spin extremely fast. Unlike in the past, they are now spinning towards a central point.\nEnhanced nonstop by the real sun, the Stellar Flame has become much stronger. Being refined repeatedly by it, those silvery grains spin with ever increasing speed. As time passes, the silvery grains spin faster and faster.\nMoreover, all of them are quickly spinning towards the center.\nOf course, the more silvery grains there are in the outer parts of the dantian, the more silvery grains will spin towards the center with time. In the huge space of the dantian, all of the silvery grains are converging towards the center like mad.\nWhile enhancing the Stellar Flame, the powerful and extremely pure solar fire continuously refines Qin Yu’s body as well.\nConcurrently with this, various clear streams flow to every place in Qin Yu’s body from the Meteoric Tear, enabling his body to recover very fast. But as soon as it recovers, it is burnt and refined by the fire yet again.\nThanks to getting burnt and healed repeatedly by the fire and the Meteoric Tear, the toughness and flexibility of Qin Yu’s body improve very quickly.\nLei Wei created the practice method of making use of solar fires, but he could only rely on his body’s natural recovery ability, which was much inferior to the Meteoric Tear’s healing ability. It should be known that the faster a practitioner can recover, the greater the number of times his body will be refined.\n…… Outside, Hou Fei suddenly opens his eyes, stands up and stares at Qin Yu’s room.\nAt the moment, even Hou Fei is very astonished by a powerful undulation of energy.\n“Guardian Hou Fei, what has happened?” Guardian Zhuang Zhong runs up to Hou Fei and asks. He has also felt the energy undulation at this place. The 2 snake women, amazed by such a powerful amount of energy, have run into Qin Yu’s house as well.\n“Bugger off!”\nHou Fei suddenly stares at them and growls loudly, looking frighteningly violent. His fierce look makes Zhuang Zhong, Yan Qing and her sister trembles in their hearts. Immediately, they no longer dare to say anything. They all know that he killed Sang Mo right outside the main entrance of the Blood-red Cave.\nHou Fei then turns around and looks at the room.\n“Just now how could that fire come down from the sky?” He is somewhat doubtful in his heart. Actually, there were restrictive spells around Qin Yu’s room so the energy Qin Yu sent out should not have alarmed the other guardians. But that fiery stream of energy just now unexpectedly destroyed the restrictive spells with ease.\nBecause of this, at a crucial moment to Qin Yu, the energy surged forth from his body caught the other guardians’ attention.\nAnd they have begun to gather in his house.\n“Hey, great beauty Yan, what’s happened inside?” Wu Tong of the 2 tiger shark brothers asks Yan Qing. Seeing Hou Fei guarding outside Qin Yu’s room, he does not dare to go into it without permission. Who does not know about Hou Fei’s wildness and insolence?\nYan Qing says with a shake of her head: “I don’t know, but it should be guardian Liu Xing practicing.”\n“Practicing? Why didn’t he set up restrictive spells? All of us can feel the undulation of his energy. Could it be he doesn’t know that the Blood-red Cave is in a very tense situation?” Ba Ming of the 3 black turtle brothers frowns and says doubtfully.\nWhen these several guardians are discussing,\nThe energy coming out from the room suddenly withdraws.\nInside the room,\nA faint smile appears on the face of Qin Yu, who is sitting with legs crossed in midair. He opens his eyes then slightly opens his mouth and takes a breath. The remaining third of the yuanying, which is yet to be refined, is swallowed up by him directly.\nThe outer nebula also disappears in an instant.\nThere is a blue Stellar Flame in the center of the dantian. Inside the Stellar Flame, there is a dazzling golden source of light. By observing carefully, one would find out that it is a very small golden grain. It is called a meteor. This shining meteor is being burnt by the Stellar Flame. Around the shining golden grain, there are a few silvery grains.\nEven though their number has become much smaller, they are occupying much more space in the dantian than before.\nThe remainder of the yuanying has been swallowed up by Qin Yu at a gulp.\nA series of cracking sounds rises as the Stellar Flame burns and refines that third of the yuanying completely. Those silvery grains then begin to revolve very fast. They have also become slightly bigger.\n“With the help of the solar fire, I had to refine a great number of silvery grains to get a golden grain. This solar fire is really exceptionally powerful. I didn’t think it’d be able to refine a third of the yuanying completely in a breath!” Qin Yu thinks to himself emotionally.\nAll of a sudden, a faint smile appears on the corners of his mouth: “Let’s see how much faster I’ve become.” A golden ray of light then shoots out from the meteor in his dantian. It fuses with the channels in his entire body instantly.\nWhizz!\nWith a shake of his body, Qin Yu disappears from the room like a golden ray of light. He is at least 10 times faster than before. His speed has reached a simply frightening level. Outside the room, Hou Fei blinks his fiery eyes in disbelief. He suddenly feels Qin Yu’s aura disappear from the room in an instant.\n“Fei Fei.” Qin Yu suddenly appears in front of an astonished Hou Fei and looks smilingly at him."

第二十九章
赤血洞府，一只只护卫队伍不断在各自巡逻，就是那些貌美的侍女们走在道回廊上也小心翼翼，不敢和过去一样和护卫们打情骂俏，整个赤血洞府气氛都很是压抑。
晏青二姐妹、玄龟三兄弟、虎鲨二兄弟、滕毕、秦羽、侯费、庒钟各大护法孔明在自己住处，无一人在外闲逛。
九煞殿大殿之内。
大殿上方有着一尊宝座，在下方左右各有四尊宝座，此刻正有八位披有紫色锦袍的男子坐在各个座位上，唯有大殿之下左方第二个座位是空的。
正最上面那大汉浓眉大眼，身上自然散发着霸道的气势。
此刻这紫袍大汉正仔细看着手中一把三寸长的玉剑，上下仔细看了数遍：“传说中的九剑，便是第六把了，果然好剑，好剑啊。”
紫袍大汉嘴里为断惊叹着，眼中更是神光暴闪。 大殿之下右方第一具紫袍大汉则是不满道：“大哥，有什么好看的，不就是一把极品灵器？
“你懂什么。”
九煞殿九兄弟本体为紫煞蛟龙，虽然不是神兽，可是也算是接近，一条紫煞蛟龙也能够击败同等级修仙者五六个，这九条紫煞蛟龙联手也成为海底三大势力之一。 上方紫袍大汉便为九兄弟之首狄龙！
狄龙眼睛发亮看着这玉剑：“那特殊功用，各位兄弟都知晓。
然而这玉剑本身也是了不得的。 我告诉你们，炼制这玉剑的材料，不过是一块寒冰碧玉。”
“怎么可能？”
下方的七位兄弟都震惊了起来。
寒冰碧玉不过是炼制中品灵器的材料，再炼制也不可能炼制出上品灵器。 更别说炼制成极品灵器了。
狄龙嘴角有了一丝笑意：“别不相信，这玉剑不过是开启仙府的钥匙而已，那炼制这玉剑的仙人实力到底强到什么地步，根本不是你们所能想象的，他已然有了化腐朽为神奇地能力。”
“用中品灵器材料炼制出极品灵器，也反应了仙人的实力，这等仙人仙府中到底有什么，钥匙就是九把极品灵器了，里面藏有什么呢？”
狄龙眼中放光。 其他七位兄弟似乎也想起仙府中宝贝，一个个眼睛放光。
老三狄旭说道：“大哥，根据我们的情报，如今九把玉剑已经出来了七把，蓬莱仙域的修仙者们得到了一把，紫焰魔狱那群修魔者运气好竟然得到了两把。 青龙宫那头青龙得到了一把，我们一把，碧水府那三眼老怪也得到一把。
海底修妖者实力庞大，得到玉剑数目也从侧面反应了各自实力。
老大狄龙微微点头一笑道：“蓬莱仙域可是有不少修仙者门派，他们只有一把玉剑，估计内部也要乱上一会儿，至于现在刚刚出现的第七把玉剑，我们就参与了。 还是让青龙和三眼老怪两个老家伙慢慢斗吧。”
青龙宫青龙，碧水府三眼碧睛蟾，这两大神兽实力强悍，九煞殿需要倾力而出才能一斗。
“大哥，如今才出七把玉剑，剩余的两把玉剑在哪里呢？” 老九狄螚问道。
狄龙胸有成竹道：“这第九把暂时无人清楚，不过……第八把我倒是知道，此次老八亲自出马，就是为了这第八把玉剑，如果我预料的不错，老八定可以手到擒来。”
老三狄旭笑道：“老九，这事情我也知道，大哥让我派人收集各方消息，同时搜索玉剑的存在。
搜索玉剑。
并不是单单九煞搜索。 蓬莱仙域、紫焰魔狱、青龙宫、九煞殿、碧水府五大势力都是派出各个好手在各自搜索，不但在海岛、海底搜索，同时还到潜龙大陆搜索。
只是那些修妖才、修仙者、修魔者们进入潜龙大陆只是为了找寻玉剑，也没有参与到潜龙大陆内部，否则潜龙大陆三大王朝也不可能那么稳定。
这第八把玉剑我们是势在必得。 如今我们需要全力侦查第九把玉剑到底在哪！”
狄龙站了起来，扫视下方的各位兄弟道，“各位兄弟，想在大家全力寻找第九把玉剑的信息！”
“是，大哥！”
时间一过已然三月之久。 赤血洞府依旧处于平静之中。
此时密室之中。
查洪盘膝坐着，身前那黑色玉盒正悬浮着。 黑色玉盒不断散发着道道光芒，庞大的妖元力不断消耗着黑色玉盒的‘去尘禁制’的能量。
到了如今，查洪也心情澎湃起来。 收回双手，停止输入妖元力，查洪额头都有着颗颗汗珠。
“呼。” 查洪睫毛上都是汗水，得到黑色玉盒已然百年，到如今查洪已然确定，这黑色玉盒很快便要被破开了，到时候他便是得到了其中的宝贝，他的野心也有了一点基础。
修仙者的蓬莱仙域，修魔者的紫焰魔域，海底青龙宫，九煞殿，碧水府。
这五大势力绝对是海外修真者最强大地五大势力。 赤血洞府不过是九煞殿麾下八大洞府之一而已，与那五个巨无霸相比，根本不是一个档次。 这才是的查洪一直很低调。
“我查洪等了百年，这鬼禁制终于要破了。 唉，这布置禁制的仙人也是，不就是去尘禁制么，随便用点力量就是。
此刻查洪心情不错。
“希望在这最后关头不要出什么意外。
不过不管是谁，我绝对不容别人夺我宝贝。” 查洪眼中寒光闪闪，随后便休息了一会儿回复了妖元力再次开始消耗‘去尘禁制’中的能量。
赤血洞府，东区秦羽所在的独院之中。
候费盘膝鼻炎坐于独院之中。 在他身旁插着一根黑棒，就这么的候费修炼了整整三个月，不过候费并没有全身心修炼，他已然留有灵识查探外围。
不管是谁，绝对不允许去打扰秦羽修炼。
在候费所保护的秦羽修炼载的屋子中，此刻秦羽全身正散发着迷蒙地星光，行车治理形成巨大的星云包裹了秦羽，秦羽正盘膝坐于床的上方。
此刻，秦羽是虚空而坐。
徒然！ 星云流转加速，同时海洋上空地太阳竟然射出一道炽热的能量直接穿过海水。 射入了海底深处直接超赤血洞府秦羽所载的屋子中射去，那炽热的能量直接融入星云之中。
顿时，星云的颜色瞬间变成了金色光芒，秦羽完全被金光笼罩。
一阵阵细微的响声从其余的全身传来，秦羽额头完全是一颗颗大的汗珠，剧烈的疼痛让秦羽甚至于都痉挛了起来，但是他依旧忍着，因为此刻已经到了最关键时刻。 秦羽体内。
丹田中银色星辰密度比过去又高上一倍，无数的星辰急速旋转着，同时道道炽热能量从体外进入体内。 秦羽全身筋骨急剧发生翻天覆地的变化。
筋骨、肌肉，甚至于秦羽每一细胞都发生着急剧的变化。 身体的坚韧程度一次次提升。
热！
犹如火烤，秦羽体内地星辰真火也不断燃烧了起来，丹田宇宙无数的银色星辰开始急剧旋转了起来，和过去不同，此刻无数星辰一圈圈不断朝中央汇集。
星辰真火在最元始地太阳真火的火力辅助下。 威力大盛，那些银色星辰不断被淬炼被炼化，旋转起来的速度愈加地块。 随着时间推移，银色星辰旋转速度越来越快。
而且银色星辰是由内而外一圈圈的朝中央汇集。
自然外圈的星辰数量更加多，越是到后面，朝中央汇集的银色星辰数量就越多，整个丹田庞大的空间中。 所有的银色星辰仿佛疯了一样朝中央汇集。
庞大地最纯粹的太阳真火火力在辅助星辰真火过程中，也不断淬炼身体。
同时，一道道清流从流星泪中流出，流遍了秦羽全身各处。 这也使得秦羽身体恢复速度很快，但是同样的刚刚恢复就要被那些火力再次淬炼破坏。
流星泪和火力的一次修复破坏，让秦羽身体坚韧程度飞速提高。
、那雷卫创出借助原始太阳真火之力修炼，但是他只能靠身体的自然恢复，怎么也赶不上流星泪恢复速度，恢复越快，也代表了淬炼次数越多。
屋外的侯费眼睛蓦地睁开，迅速站了起来，盯着秦羽所在屋子。
此刻那强大地能量波动侯费也是震惊的很。
“侯费护法，发生了什么事情么？” 庒钟护法跑了过来询问道，他也感受到此处能量波动，同时两名蛇女也跑了过来，也对此处庞大的能量感到震惊。 即使是修炼，能量也不会如此庞大吧。
“滚出去！”
侯费猛地瞪眼大吼道，神态狂暴的吓人，那眼中的凶光让庒钟以及晏青姐妹心中一颤，当即不敢说什么，他们可是知道侯费直接在赤血洞府门口杀死了桑墨。
侯费心底也有点疑惑。
即使能量散发也不应该惊动其他护法。 然而刚才那道火力竟然轻而易举破了禁制。
这才使得秦羽在最重要关头，澎湃地能量引起了其他护法注意。
一个个护法开始聚集过来。
‘虎鲨两兄弟的巫瞳护法对着晏青问道。 那巫瞳看到守卫在屋外的侯费，他也不敢擅自闯进去侯费的桀骜蛮横，谁都是知道的。
晏青摇头道：“不知道，应该是流星护法在修炼吧。”
“修炼？ 他怎么不布置禁制，能量波动我们都感应到了，难道他不知道此刻赤血洞府正处于极度紧张状态么，”玄龟三兄弟中的巴明皱眉疑惑道。
正当这几大护法彼此谈论的时候。
屋内能量竟然猛地收敛了。
屋内。
盘膝悬浮于空的秦羽脸上有了一丝微笑，只见秦羽上睁开眼睛，嘴微微一张，就这么一吸，原本还有三分之一没胡炼化的元婴就这么直接被秦羽吞入口中。
那星云也是瞬间消失。
秦羽丹田中。 丹田正中央是一团青色的星辰真火，在星辰真火之内，正是一刺眼的金色光华，仔细看才会发现那一颗十分的小的金色颗粒，这便是所谓的‘流星’，这流星光点时刻处于星辰真火灼烧之中，在这金色光点周围，则是稀疏的银色星辰。
虽然比过去稀疏的多，但是占据丹田无限空间面积却大了许多。
那元婴被秦羽一口吞入。
只听一阵噼里啪啦灼烧响动，在星辰真火的灼烧之下那三分之一元婴就被完全炼化个干净。
那些银色星辰急促旋转，银色星辰也大上了些许。 “万千星辰，借助原始太阳真火，总算是淬炼出一丝金色星辰。 这原始太阳真火威力果然大的离谱，那剩余的三分之一元婴竟然一个呼吸就被完全炼化个干净！”
忽然秦羽嘴角有了一丝笑意：“感受一下速度到底提高了多少。” 陡然一道金色光线丹田‘流星’中射出，霎那便融入全身各自经脉。
咻！
秦羽整个人犹如一道金色细线一闪就消失在屋中，速度之快，超过去址倍有余，简直达到骇人听闻地步。 屋外的侯费那双火眼难以置信眨了眨，他突然感到秦羽气息在屋中霎那消失。
“费费。” 秦羽忽然出现在侯费面前，微笑看着大吃一惊的侯费。

Book 5 Chapter 29
Various guard squads are continuously patrolling everywhere in the Blood-red Cave. Even those beautiful ladies-in-waiting on the walkways or in the corridors have also become cautious and no longer dare to banter flirtatiously with the guards as before. The current atmosphere in the Blood-red Cave is very oppressive.
The guardians, consisting of Yan Qing and her sister, the 3 black turtle brothers, the 2 tiger shark brothers, Teng Bi, Qin Yu, Hou Fei and Zhuang Zhong, all stay in their own houses. None of them strolls outside.
In the Nine Demons Hall’s main hall,
There is a throne on a raised platform. Below it, there are 4 thrones on either side. At the moment, 8 men who are dressed in purple brocade robes are sitting in the thrones. Only the 2nd throne on the left among the lower thrones is vacant.
The man sitting in the highest throne in the main hall has thick eyebrows and big eyes. His body naturally gives off a lordly air.
This purple-robed man is examining a 3-cun long jade sword in his hand. After looking at it carefully several times, he says: “This is the 6th of the legendary 9 Swords. It’s indeed a good sword, very good.” As he exclaims nonstop, his eyes blaze with excitement.
The 1st purple-robed man on the right below him, however, says critically: “Big brother, what’s good about it? Isn’t it just a top-grade holy weapon? Though top-grade holy weapons are pretty precious, this sword doesn’t deserve such fame. Except for some special functions, what’s good about this jade sword itself?”
“What do you know?” The higher purple-robed man says laughingly.
The true forms of the Nine Demons Hall’s 9 brothers are Purple Demon aquatic dragons. Even though they are not divine dragons, they are close to divine dragons in power. A Purple Demon aquatic dragon can defeat 5 or 6 Xiuxianists of the same power level as it. Therefore, by joining forces, these 9 Purple Demon aquatic dragons were able to become one of the 3 superpowers at the bottom of the ocean.
The higher purple-robed man is the big brother among them, Di Long!
Di Long looks at the jade sword with glittering eyes: “Brothers, you all know about those special functions. But this jade sword itself is also extraordinary. Let me tell you something. The material used to forge it was only a chunk of icy jasper.”
“How is this possible?”
Below him, his 7 brothers are all astonished.
It is common knowledge that icy jasper is only a material to make middle-grade holy weapons and cannot be forged into high-grade holy weapons, let alone top-grade holy weapons.
Di Long says with a faint smile on the corners of his mouth: “Don’t doubt it. This jade sword is only a key to open an immortal mansion. It’s simply impossible for you to imagine how powerful the immortal that forged this jade sword was. They certainly had the ability to perform miracles.”
“The fact that this immortal was able to forge top-grade holy weapons from a middle-grade material reflects their power. What things are there in the mansion of an immortal like this? When even the keys to it are already 9 top-grade holy weapons, what treasures is it storing?” Di Long’s eyes glitter.
The eyes of his 7 brothers also glitter. It seems they are also thinking about the treasures in the immortal mansion.
The 3rd brother Di Xu says: “Big brother, according to our intelligence, 7 of the 9 jade swords have appeared. The Xiuxianists of the Penglai Immortal Region got 1. The Purple Flame Devilish Dungeon’s Xiumoists are lucky; they unexpectedly got 2. That azure dragon of the Azure Dragon Palace got 1. We got 1 and that 3-eyed old freak of the Blue Water Mansion also got 1. It seems Azure Dragon and 3-Eyed are contending for the 7th jade sword.”
Underwater Xiuyaoists are very powerful and the number of jade swords they have obtained also partly reflects this.
The big brother Di Long slightly nods and says smilingly: “There are many Xiuxian schools in the Penglai Immortal Region but they only got 1 jade sword so perhaps there’ll be an internal struggle among them for a while. As for the 7th jade sword that has just appeared, we won’t get involved with it. We’d better let Azure Dragon and the old freak 3-Eyed fight each other.”
Azure Dragon of the Azure Dragon Palace and the 3-Blue-Eyed Toad of the Blue Water Mansion are 2 extremely powerful divine beasts. To put up a fight against either of them, the Nine Demons Hall will have to go all out.
“Big brother, now that the 7th jade sword has appeared, where are the remaining 2?” The 9th brother Di Nai asks.
Di Long says very confidently: “Nobody knows where the 9th sword currently is. But … I know where the 8th sword is. This time, 8th brother personally went out because of it. If my prediction is correct, 8th brother will succeed with ease.”
The 3rd brother Di Xu says smilingly: “9th brother, I know about this business too. Big brother told me to send subordinates to gather information about different camps and at the same time search for the jade swords. And I accidentally obtained the information about the 8th sword.”
Searching for the jade swords.
Not only has the Nine Demons Hall been searching for them, the Penglai Immortal Region, the Purple Flame Devilish Dungeon, the Azure Dragon Palace and the Blue Water Mansion have all sent experts to search for them everywhere as well. They have been searching the islands and the ocean and have even gone to the Qian Long continent to search.
Luckily those Xiuyaoists, Xiuxianists and Xiumoists entered the Qian Long continent only to search for the jade swords rather than to take part in its internal affairs, or else the 3 big kingdoms on the continent would not be able to enjoy such a high level of stability.
“The more jade swords the better. If we can obtain more jade swords, when the 5 superpowers unlock the immortal mansion later, our opinions will carry more weight and we’ll get more treasures. We’ll definitely obtain the 8th jade sword, so now we must try our best to find out where the 9th sword is!”
Di Long stands up and glances at his brothers below him, saying: “Brothers, let’s try your hardest to gather information about the 9th sword now!”
“Yes, big brother!”
3 months has already gone by. The Blood-red Cave is still as calm as before.
At the moment in the secret room of the cave,
Cha Hong is sitting with legs crossed. A black jade case is floating in front of him. It is continuously sending out many rays of light. And Cha Hong’s powerful demonic elemental energy is neutralizing the energy of the case’s Dust Removing restrictive spell nonstop. At this point, even Cha Hong has become emotional.
He withdraws his hands and stops sending his demonic elemental energy into the case. There are various beads of sweat on his forehead at the moment. “Whew.”
Cha Hong’s eyebrows are drenched with sweat. Having been in possession of this black jade case for 100 years, today he has been able to ascertain that the case is going to be opened very soon. At that time he is going to obtain the treasure in the case and, as a result, have something to rely on to achieve his ambitions.
Xiuxianists’ Penglai Immortal Region, Xiumoists’ Purple Flame Devilish Dungeon, the Azure Dragon Palace, the Nine Demons Hall, and the Blue Water Mansion are absolutely the 5 strongest superpowers in the overseas Xiuzhen world.
The Blood-red Cave is only one of the 8 minor powers under the Nine Demons Hall. It is simply not in the same league as the 5 superpowers. Because of this, Cha Hong has been trying to lie very low and be very cautious, especially after obtaining the black jade case.
“After 100 years, this bloody restrictive spell is finally about to break. The immortal that set it up was really ridiculous. Isn’t it just a dust-removing spell? Casually using a little power would’ve been enough. Why gave it so much energy?” Cha Hong says smilingly with a sigh.
At the moment he is in a fairly good mood.
However, as soon as he remembers his 2nd brother Cha Po’s sudden death, he has a tinge of a bad feeling.
“Hopefully nothing unexpected will happen at this final juncture. But … I definitely won’t let anyone snatch my treasure.” Cha Hong’s eyes glitter with coldness. Afterwards, he rests for a while to replenish his demonic elemental energy then continues to drain the energy of the Dust Removing restrictive spell.
…… In Qin Yu’s courtyard house in the eastern part of the Blood-red Cave,
Hou Fei is sitting with legs crossed and eyes closed in the courtyard. There is a black stick next to him. He has been practicing this way for 3 whole months. But he has not been practicing with full concentration because he has been watching the surroundings closely using his holy sense.
He definitely will not let anybody interrupt Qin Yu’s training.
Qin Yu is practicing in the room guarded by Hou Fei. At the moment, his body is radiating an indistinct light similar to starlight. Stellar energy has formed a huge nebula that is enfolding him. Qin Yu is sitting with legs crossed above the bed.
He is currently sitting in midair. Suddenly!
The nebula spins faster. At the same time, the sun above the ocean unexpectedly shoots a blazing stream of energy down towards a deep place in the ocean through the water. This blazing energy stream comes straight into Qin Yu’s room in the Blood-red Cave then fuses with the nebula.
Immediately, the color of the nebula becomes golden. Qin Yu is being surrounded completely in the golden light.
A series of small sounds comes out from his entire body. His whole forehead is being covered in large beads of sweat. He has even begun to convulse due to acute pains but he is still trying to endure the pains because he knows he has reached a crucial point in practice.
The density of the silvery grains in his dantian has unexpectedly increased by 100%. Countless silvery grains are rotating very quickly. At the same time, various blazing streams of energy are entering the body from the outside. The muscles and bones in Qin Yu’s entire body are undergoing rapid and drastic transformations.
Every muscle, every bone and even every cell in his body are transforming very quickly. The toughness and flexibility of his body are being improved again and again.
Hot!
The Stellar Flame is blazing nonstop inside Qin Yu’s body, as if it is roasting him. The countless silvery grains in the space of his dantian start to spin extremely fast. Unlike in the past, they are now spinning towards a central point.
Enhanced nonstop by the real sun, the Stellar Flame has become much stronger. Being refined repeatedly by it, those silvery grains spin with ever increasing speed. As time passes, the silvery grains spin faster and faster.
Moreover, all of them are quickly spinning towards the center.
Of course, the more silvery grains there are in the outer parts of the dantian, the more silvery grains will spin towards the center with time. In the huge space of the dantian, all of the silvery grains are converging towards the center like mad.
While enhancing the Stellar Flame, the powerful and extremely pure solar fire continuously refines Qin Yu’s body as well.
Concurrently with this, various clear streams flow to every place in Qin Yu’s body from the Meteoric Tear, enabling his body to recover very fast. But as soon as it recovers, it is burnt and refined by the fire yet again.
Thanks to getting burnt and healed repeatedly by the fire and the Meteoric Tear, the toughness and flexibility of Qin Yu’s body improve very quickly.
Lei Wei created the practice method of making use of solar fires, but he could only rely on his body’s natural recovery ability, which was much inferior to the Meteoric Tear’s healing ability. It should be known that the faster a practitioner can recover, the greater the number of times his body will be refined.
…… Outside, Hou Fei suddenly opens his eyes, stands up and stares at Qin Yu’s room.
At the moment, even Hou Fei is very astonished by a powerful undulation of energy.
“Guardian Hou Fei, what has happened?” Guardian Zhuang Zhong runs up to Hou Fei and asks. He has also felt the energy undulation at this place. The 2 snake women, amazed by such a powerful amount of energy, have run into Qin Yu’s house as well.
“Bugger off!”
Hou Fei suddenly stares at them and growls loudly, looking frighteningly violent. His fierce look makes Zhuang Zhong, Yan Qing and her sister trembles in their hearts. Immediately, they no longer dare to say anything. They all know that he killed Sang Mo right outside the main entrance of the Blood-red Cave.
Hou Fei then turns around and looks at the room.
“Just now how could that fire come down from the sky?” He is somewhat doubtful in his heart. Actually, there were restrictive spells around Qin Yu’s room so the energy Qin Yu sent out should not have alarmed the other guardians. But that fiery stream of energy just now unexpectedly destroyed the restrictive spells with ease.
Because of this, at a crucial moment to Qin Yu, the energy surged forth from his body caught the other guardians’ attention.
And they have begun to gather in his house.
“Hey, great beauty Yan, what’s happened inside?” Wu Tong of the 2 tiger shark brothers asks Yan Qing. Seeing Hou Fei guarding outside Qin Yu’s room, he does not dare to go into it without permission. Who does not know about Hou Fei’s wildness and insolence?
Yan Qing says with a shake of her head: “I don’t know, but it should be guardian Liu Xing practicing.”
“Practicing? Why didn’t he set up restrictive spells? All of us can feel the undulation of his energy. Could it be he doesn’t know that the Blood-red Cave is in a very tense situation?” Ba Ming of the 3 black turtle brothers frowns and says doubtfully.
When these several guardians are discussing,
The energy coming out from the room suddenly withdraws.
Inside the room,
A faint smile appears on the face of Qin Yu, who is sitting with legs crossed in midair. He opens his eyes then slightly opens his mouth and takes a breath. The remaining third of the yuanying, which is yet to be refined, is swallowed up by him directly.
The outer nebula also disappears in an instant.
There is a blue Stellar Flame in the center of the dantian. Inside the Stellar Flame, there is a dazzling golden source of light. By observing carefully, one would find out that it is a very small golden grain. It is called a meteor. This shining meteor is being burnt by the Stellar Flame. Around the shining golden grain, there are a few silvery grains.
Even though their number has become much smaller, they are occupying much more space in the dantian than before.
The remainder of the yuanying has been swallowed up by Qin Yu at a gulp.
A series of cracking sounds rises as the Stellar Flame burns and refines that third of the yuanying completely. Those silvery grains then begin to revolve very fast. They have also become slightly bigger.
“With the help of the solar fire, I had to refine a great number of silvery grains to get a golden grain. This solar fire is really exceptionally powerful. I didn’t think it’d be able to refine a third of the yuanying completely in a breath!” Qin Yu thinks to himself emotionally.
All of a sudden, a faint smile appears on the corners of his mouth: “Let’s see how much faster I’ve become.” A golden ray of light then shoots out from the meteor in his dantian. It fuses with the channels in his entire body instantly.
Whizz!
With a shake of his body, Qin Yu disappears from the room like a golden ray of light. He is at least 10 times faster than before. His speed has reached a simply frightening level. Outside the room, Hou Fei blinks his fiery eyes in disbelief. He suddenly feels Qin Yu’s aura disappear from the room in an instant.
“Fei Fei.” Qin Yu suddenly appears in front of an astonished Hou Fei and looks smilingly at him.

After the Gold Battle Wolf’s howl, all the wolves under chaotic cries charged towards those player’s that forced Ling Chen down the abyss.\nThe players had a tough time fighting one wolf alone, over 100 wolves charging over at once, the leader also a Lord BOSS, those archers and mages at the head immediately lost all the colour in their faces. All stopping their attacks, lifting their feet and running away. Good thing they controlled their distance well, reaching the safe area before the wolves could reach them. Yet, before they could even catch a breath, they shockingly saw, that massive, golden wolf actually charging directly out of the area of Wolf’s Cliff, stepping into the “safe zone”, carrying a mighty air and pouncing at them.\n“Quick… quick, retreat!!”\nThe unsuspecting players turned pale with fear, but the speed of the Gold Battle Wolf is simply too quick. The mage at the the back of the group just wanted to start running, and was already caught up by the Gold Battle Wolf. A savage pounce landing on his body, directly insta-killing him, and then another long jump, landing in the middle of the group. Wolf head rising, howl shaking the air, a Sonic Shock enveloping the escaping players.\n3 apprentice elemental mages, 2 apprentice archers getting insta-killed, the 1 surviving archer and 2 apprentice shield guards all in critical condition, being dazed by the Sonic Shock. The Gold Battle Wolf swung its tail, 1 bow, 2 shields also falling onto the ground.\nIn just a moment, the Gold Battle Wolf dealt with 9 people like a wind sweeping fallen leaves, Black Flame Bow’s forehead started sweating, yelling while retreating: “All shield guards… Hurry and block it!!”\nAlthough, with the interference of the 4 cannon fodders, the rest of the players finally got away. The Gold Battle Wolf glanced at them, not chasing. It turned around returning to Wolf’s Cliff, standing on that rock at the top of the cliff, proudly looking down at those players that no longer dared to get close.\nA few minutes later, groups of players began arriving under the cliff. For some unknown reason, the information that a Lord BOSS is at Wolf’s Cliff spread out, more and more people knowing. Unable to resist the temptation, countless player swarmed over, in an instant, the bottom of the cliff is a massive black swarm.\n“This Lord BOSS was first discovered by us the Black Flame Gang, if all the friends here can do us a favor and give the BOSS to us, if we meet in the future we can have a good talk.” The amount of people continuing to increase, Black Flame Bow’s face also became increasingly darker. He knows that wanting the boss for himself is no longer possible, in the crowd, he looked at one after another powerful guild names within the virtual game world. (TL: Lots of guilds carry over from previous games)\n“So what if you’re Black Flame Gang? It’s not like this Lord BOSS was raised by your family, whoever gets it gets it!!” A loud voice coming from the crowd.\n“Hehe, whoever has the ability will get the Lord BOSS, is it not?”\nThe Yan Huang alliance also came!! (TL: Yan Huang refers to two kings in chinese legend who are considered the ancestor’s of China. Chinese people are also known as the “Descendants of Yan Huang”)\nThe amount of people continued to accumulate, eyes of greed all falling upon that shiny, golden big wolf, but no one moved forward, because whoever went first, not only will they become cannon fodder, they will also become the target of the public.\nLing Chen’s restless heart had already calmed down, because he has been maintaining a falling condition for more than a minute.\nThe whistling wind drowning his sense of hearing, when he fell down the chasm, his heart was filled with resentment, even though he was already destined to be unable to kill the Gold Battle Wolf, but if be wanted to escape, even if another double the number of wolves came they couldn’t even stop him. But it happens, right when he had calculated his route of escape a hail of arrows and elemental bullets came flying over, forcing him to retreat, falling into this seemingly endless chasm.\nBlack Flame… He thought of 3 years ago that Black Flame Gang that had already resounded throughout China, it’s overall strength in China’s top 30 guilds!\nBlack Flame Gang… saying the name under his breath, Ling Chen’s gaze flashed an intense coldness.\nAlready falling down who knows how deep, the surrounding is already completely dark. His falling speed had already reached terminal velocity. This kind of height, is more than enough for him to fall to death a dozen times.\nExactly what kind of chasm is this, actually with such a terrifying depth. The Mystic Moon continent is 2 parts land, 8 parts water, in reason this kind of depth should have already reached water level. The Village Chief once said, the novice villages are all a bunch of islands spread out on an endless sea, the sides of the Novice Village, are all vast ocean as far as the eye can see. The existence of this chasm defies logic.\nBut no matter what, this kind of height, him falling to death is certain.\nLing Chen rapidly looked downwards, a pale area instantly appearing in his eyesight, these lights, actually came from below. At the same time, an increasingly obvious change started to occur to the surrounding airflow.\nAlmost about to reach the bottom of the chasm!!\nBAM!!\n-2600!\nLing Chen’s body landing… smashing heavily onto the extremely hard ground. His entire body shaking, at that instant he even felt as though his entire body was falling apart, internal organs violently shaking, HP also being cleared in an instant.\n“DING… You have died.”\nThe same time the system message sounded, a blue light accompanied by a light cracking sound rose from Ling Chen’s chest, that is the light from the sapphire necklace.\n“DING… ‘Blessed Sapphire Necklace’ activated, you have been revived, HP recovering to max.” “DING… ‘Blessed Sapphire Necklace’ broken, cannot be repaired.”\nThe empty HP then recovering fully in an instant, Ling Chen took off the sapphire necklace in front of his chest, finding that the exterior was already covered with cracks, the sapphire necklace initially releasing a blue glow now completely dull.\nLing Chen who was guaranteed to die, under the effect of this sapphire necklace escaped death.\nThe sore feeling in his body starting to quickly dissipate, his partly dazed brain also finally waking up. Ling Chen stood up, looking at the surroundings. This is the bottom of the abyss, it’s impossible for any light to come through. But here there is strangely a hazy white light, allowing Ling Chen to clearly see the surrounding dozen meters. Ling Chen observed for a long time before confirming, what is releasing the light is the ground, most likely some kind of special stone the releases a weak light.\nBehind Ling Chen is a wall in which the top cannot be seen, his hand pressing on the wall, an incredibly cold feeling on his hand. Suddenly, Ling Chen ‘s mind became alarmed… He suddenly thought of, after falling to death, he can choose to return to the city, thereby returning directly to the Novice Village. But because of the blessing of the sapphire necklace, he didn’t die… and, the Novice Village didn’t have a teleport scroll this kind of thing.\nThen, how is he supposed to get back!?\nAbove, is a rock wall so high that its height cannot even be estimated, falling down from it already used a minute, climbing upwards…. That’s just an impossible thing!!!\nCold sweat, slowly seeped from Ling Chen’s forehead. Under this kind of situation, death, seems to be the only way to leave. But, in the 《Mystic Moon》 world, there simply isn’t a suicide setting.\nIt can’t be that, he will be forever trapped here!?\nIf Ling Chen falls for 60 seconds, and we just say that he has been falling at terminal velocity from the start which is apparently 56 m/s for a human, the depth of the chasm is around 3360 m aka 3.36 km. So, basically like falling from the top of Mount Fuji. I’m too lazy to calculate the distance traveled during acceleration. Next time on Shura’s Wrath, 1 vs 1000!"

第19章
凌尘落下恶狼崖后，黄金战狼和众恶狼顿时转移目标，全部转身面向了崖下的玩家群，顿时，随着黄金战狼一声长嚎，所有恶狼在混乱的嘶叫声扑向了那些将凌尘逼下万丈深渊的玩家。
这些玩家独自面对一只凶狼都够呛，一下子上百只凶狼冲过来，领头的还是一只领主BOSS，那些打头阵的弓手和魔法师顿时吓得面无人sè，全部停止攻击，撒丫子一阵狂奔，好在他们距离控制的不错，在被追上之前全部安全的逃离到了安全区域。
“快……快撤！ ！”
措手不及的玩家群顿时大惊失sè，但黄金战狼的移动速度何其之快，吊在队伍最后方的魔法师刚要拔腿狂奔，便已被黄金战狼追及，一个凶狠的扑击落在他的身上，将他直接秒杀，然后又是一个长距离的前跃，直接落在了队伍的中间，狼首仰起，嚎叫震空，一个声波震杀笼罩了周围八个逃窜中的玩家。
三个见习元素师、两个见习弓箭手被直接秒杀，幸存的一个见习战士和两个见习盾卫也全部残血，并且在声波震杀下眩晕了过去。 黄金战狼一个狼尾甩击，一战两盾也一同扑倒在了地上。
这才转眼之间，就被黄金战狼如风扫落叶般清理了九个人，黑炎狂弓额头冒汗，一边快速后退一边大吼道：“所有的盾卫……快点顶住它！
不过，也借着这四个炮灰的阻挡，其他玩家也终于跑远。 黄金战狼扫了他们一眼，没有再追击，然后转身回到了恶狼崖，站在恶狼崖最高处那块岩石上，傲然的俯视着那些再也不敢靠近的玩家们。
几分钟之后，一片又一片的人cháo来到了恶狼崖之下。 不知什么原因，恶狼崖出现领主BOSS的消息居然传了出去，知道的人越来越多，无法抵御的诱惑之下，数不清的玩家争相涌向了这边，转眼之间，恶狼崖下已经是黑压压一片。
人越来越多，黑炎狂弓的脸也越来越黑。 他知道想独吞这只领主BOSS的想法是基本不可能实现了，人群之中，他看了一个又一个在虚拟游戏世界中叱咤风云的大公会名字。 “黑炎帮怎么了？
这只领主BOSS又不是你家养的，谁抢到就是谁的！ ！”
“呵呵，领主BOSS本来就是谁有能力抢到就是谁的，不是吗？”
炎黄联盟也到了这里！ ！
人越积累越多，贪婪的目光集中在那只全身金芒闪闪的巨狼身上，却始终无一人上前，因为谁先上，不但要成为炮灰，同时还会成为众矢之的。
凌尘躁动的心已经平静了下来，因为他现在已经保持zì yóu落体状态整整下落了一分钟。
耳边呼啸的风声淹没了他的听觉，在落下这个深渊时，他心中被怨愤充斥，他虽然已经注定无法击杀黄金战狼，但他若要逃走，再来一倍的恶狼也别想拦住他。 但偏偏，在他算好的遁走路线上shè来大片的箭矢和元素弹，让他不得不后退，落下了这个仿佛无底的深渊。
他想起了在三年前就已经响彻华夏虚拟游戏世界，综合实力足以列入华夏所有公会前三十的黑炎帮！
黑炎帮……低念着这个名字，凌尘目光闪烁着凛然的寒光。
他下落的速度也已经达到了极限。 这样的高度，足以将现在的他摔死个十几次。 这究竟是个怎样的深渊，竟然深到如此恐怖的程度。
神月大陆二分为陆，八分为水，按理说到了这样的深度，应该早已触及水层。 村长曾经说过，新手村都是零散的分别于无尽海域的小岛，新手村的另外几个边缘，也都是一望无际的汪洋大海。 这个深渊的存在完全不符常理。
但无论如何，这样的高度，他被摔死是一定的。
凌尘的眼眸之中，忽然映现出点点微弱的光明。 凌尘快速看向了下方，一片莹白的区域顿时出现在视线之中，这些光芒，竟然是从下方传来。
要到达这个深渊的底部了！
砰！ ！
-2600！
他全身一震，那一刹那他甚至感觉到自己的身体已经整个的散架，五脏六腑剧烈翻腾，生命值也在一瞬间被完全清空。
“叮……您已经死亡。”
提示音响起的同时，一点蓝sè的光芒伴随着轻微的破碎声从凌尘的胸前传来。 那是来自蓝宝石项链的光芒。
“叮……‘被祝福的蓝宝石项链’生效，您已被复活，生命值恢复全满。”
被清空的生命值又在瞬间恢复全满，凌尘将挂在胸前的蓝宝石项链拿下，发现上面已经布满了道道细密的裂痕，原本释放着蓝光的蓝宝石也已完全暗淡。
原本必死的凌尘，在这蓝宝石项链的作用下逃过了一劫。
但这里却奇异的白光朦朦，让凌尘足以可以看清周围十几米远的距离。 凌尘观察了许久才确信，发光的是这里的地面，应该是某种特殊的石头在释放着微弱的光芒。 凌尘的身后是一面高不见顶的墙壁，他的手按在墙壁上，入手无比冰冷。
忽然间，凌尘心中猛的一惊……他忽然想到，跌落死亡后，就可以选择马上回城，从而直接返回新手村。 但由于蓝宝石项链的祝福，他却没有死……而，新手村没有回城卷轴这种东西。
那么，他该怎么回去！
上方，是高到根本无法计算距离的石壁，从上方下落都用了一分钟多，想要爬上去……根本是不可能的事！
冷汗，从凌尘的额头上缓缓渗出。 在这种情形之下，死亡，似乎是唯一的脱离方法。 但是，《神月》世界，根本就没有自杀这一设定。
难道，他要被永远困死在这里！ ？

Chapter 19: The Bottom of the Chasm
After Ling Chen fell down the cliff, the Gold Battle Wolf and the wolves immediately changed their targets, all turning around and facing the group of players at the bottom of the cliff. After the Gold Battle Wolf’s howl, all the wolves under chaotic cries charged towards those player’s that forced Ling Chen down the abyss.
The players had a tough time fighting one wolf alone, over 100 wolves charging over at once, the leader also a Lord BOSS, those archers and mages at the head immediately lost all the colour in their faces.

A savage pounce landing on his body, directly insta-killing him, and then another long jump, landing in the middle of the group. Wolf head rising, howl shaking the air, a Sonic Shock enveloping the escaping players.
3 apprentice elemental mages, 2 apprentice archers getting insta-killed, the 1 surviving archer and 2 apprentice shield guards all in critical condition, being dazed by the Sonic Shock. The Gold Battle Wolf swung its tail, 1 bow, 2 shields also falling onto the ground.
In just a moment, the Gold Battle Wolf dealt with 9 people like a wind sweeping fallen leaves, Black Flame Bow’s forehead started sweating, yelling while retreating: “All shield guards… Hurry and block it!!”
Although, with the interference of the 4 cannon fodders, the rest of the players finally got away. The Gold Battle Wolf glanced at them, not chasing. It turned around returning to Wolf’s Cliff, standing on that rock at the top of the cliff, proudly looking down at those players that no longer dared to get close.
A few minutes later, groups of players began arriving under the cliff. For some unknown reason, the information that a Lord BOSS is at Wolf’s Cliff spread out, more and more people knowing. Unable to resist the temptation, countless player swarmed over, in an instant, the bottom of the cliff is a massive black swarm.
“This Lord BOSS was first discovered by us the Black Flame Gang, if all the friends here can do us a favor and give the BOSS to us, if we meet in the future we can have a good talk.” The amount of people continuing to increase, Black Flame Bow’s face also became increasingly darker. He knows that wanting the boss for himself is no longer possible, in the crowd, he looked at one after another powerful guild names within the virtual game world. (TL: Lots of guilds carry over from previous games)
“So what if you’re Black Flame Gang? It’s not like this Lord BOSS was raised by your family, whoever gets it gets it!!” A loud voice coming from the crowd.
“Hehe, whoever has the ability will get the Lord BOSS, is it not?”
The Yan Huang alliance also came!! (TL: Yan Huang refers to two kings in chinese legend who are considered the ancestor’s of China. Chinese people are also known as the “Descendants of Yan Huang”)
The amount of people continued to accumulate, eyes of greed all falling upon that shiny, golden big wolf, but no one moved forward, because whoever went first, not only will they become cannon fodder, they will also become the target of the public.
Ling Chen’s restless heart had already calmed down, because he has been maintaining a falling condition for more than a minute.
The whistling wind drowning his sense of hearing, when he fell down the chasm, his heart was filled with resentment, even though he was already destined to be unable to kill the Gold Battle Wolf, but if be wanted to escape, even if another double the number of wolves came they couldn’t even stop him. But it happens, right when he had calculated his route of escape a hail of arrows and elemental bullets came flying over, forcing him to retreat, falling into this seemingly endless chasm.
Black Flame… He thought of 3 years ago that Black Flame Gang that had already resounded throughout China, it’s overall strength in China’s top 30 guilds!
Black Flame Gang… saying the name under his breath, Ling Chen’s gaze flashed an intense coldness.
Already falling down who knows how deep, the surrounding is already completely dark. His falling speed had already reached terminal velocity. This kind of height, is more than enough for him to fall to death a dozen times.
Exactly what kind of chasm is this, actually with such a terrifying depth. The Mystic Moon continent is 2 parts land, 8 parts water, in reason this kind of depth should have already reached water level. The Village Chief once said, the novice villages are all a bunch of islands spread out on an endless sea, the sides of the Novice Village, are all vast ocean as far as the eye can see. The existence of this chasm defies logic.
But no matter what, this kind of height, him falling to death is certain.
Ling Chen rapidly looked downwards, a pale area instantly appearing in his eyesight, these lights, actually came from below. At the same time, an increasingly obvious change started to occur to the surrounding airflow.
Almost about to reach the bottom of the chasm!!
BAM!!
-2600!
Ling Chen’s body landing… smashing heavily onto the extremely hard ground. His entire body shaking, at that instant he even felt as though his entire body was falling apart, internal organs violently shaking, HP also being cleared in an instant.
“DING… You have died.”
The same time the system message sounded, a blue light accompanied by a light cracking sound rose from Ling Chen’s chest, that is the light from the sapphire necklace.
“DING… ‘Blessed Sapphire Necklace’ activated, you have been revived, HP recovering to max.” “DING… ‘Blessed Sapphire Necklace’ broken, cannot be repaired.”
The empty HP then recovering fully in an instant, Ling Chen took off the sapphire necklace in front of his chest, finding that the exterior was already covered with cracks, the sapphire necklace initially releasing a blue glow now completely dull.
Ling Chen who was guaranteed to die, under the effect of this sapphire necklace escaped death.
The sore feeling in his body starting to quickly dissipate, his partly dazed brain also finally waking up. Ling Chen stood up, looking at the surroundings. This is the bottom of the abyss, it’s impossible for any light to come through. But here there is strangely a hazy white light, allowing Ling Chen to clearly see the surrounding dozen meters. Ling Chen observed for a long time before confirming, what is releasing the light is the ground, most likely some kind of special stone the releases a weak light.
Behind Ling Chen is a wall in which the top cannot be seen, his hand pressing on the wall, an incredibly cold feeling on his hand. Suddenly, Ling Chen ‘s mind became alarmed… He suddenly thought of, after falling to death, he can choose to return to the city, thereby returning directly to the Novice Village. But because of the blessing of the sapphire necklace, he didn’t die… and, the Novice Village didn’t have a teleport scroll this kind of thing.
Then, how is he supposed to get back!?
Above, is a rock wall so high that its height cannot even be estimated, falling down from it already used a minute, climbing upwards…. That’s just an impossible thing!!!
Cold sweat, slowly seeped from Ling Chen’s forehead. Under this kind of situation, death, seems to be the only way to leave. But, in the 《Mystic Moon》 world, there simply isn’t a suicide setting.
It can’t be that, he will be forever trapped here!?
If Ling Chen falls for 60 seconds, and we just say that he has been falling at terminal velocity from the start which is apparently 56 m/s for a human, the depth of the chasm is around 3360 m aka 3.36 km. So, basically like falling from the top of Mount Fuji. I’m too lazy to calculate the distance traveled during acceleration. Next time on Shura’s Wrath, 1 vs 1000!

"value": "Li Shuangyan couldn’t help but to look at the little boy, who was younger and standing in front of her. With his calm demeanor and casual expression, she understood that this little boy had already knew what this was.\nLi Shuangyan couldn’t help but to ask: “What is it?”\nThe genius heaven’s proud daughter, Li Shuangyan, had never underestimated herself; however, after such a long observation, she was not able to clearly understand the mysteries of the patterns. Li Qiye already knew; this caused Li Shuangyan to feel a little helpless. Did this little boy in front of her really have a Mortal Physique, Mortal Life Wheel, and Mortal Face Palace?\nLi Qiye stared at the numerous densely packed patterns. At this moment, his eyes became particularly abstruse, and gently whispered: “Zither melodies.”\nAt this moment, Li Shuangyan felt that the little boy in front of her had become an entirely different person; it was as if he was the victim of countless vicissitudes as if he was basked in countless moons.\n“The most regrettable thing in this world is lacking an intimate friend.” [1]\nIn the end, the little boy in front of her spoke out such a subtle and ineffable line.\nLi Shuangyan couldn’t help but inquire: “How do you know these are zither melodies? What are the mysteries inside these lines?”\nThe genius heaven’s proud daughter was acting as if she was an eager student.\n“Ah, the mysteries inside are of an ancient story.” Li Qiye smilingly said: “As for how I know, I calculated with my fingers.”\nLi Shuangyan felt helpless once again. She couldn’t see through this little boy. These zither melodies in front of her, she knew that her understanding would not be lesser than any other genius; however, this little boy, with just a glance, immediately knew what it was. This was too devilish! She couldn’t help but wonder if the little boy in front of her was still human?\nFinally, Li Qiye told Protector Mo: “All of you should return, I want to be by myself to quietly contemplate.”\nNan Huairen didn’t have an opinion, and as the observer of Li Qiye for his wall facing meditation as well as his protector, Protector Mo had the responsibilities to look after him. He hesitated, and then he said: “But, you are not safe in this place.”\n“If this place isn’t safe, then other places are even more dangerous.” Li Qiye bloomed a smile, and he arranged for Protector Mo: “Your mission isn’t to protect me; it is to watch over Cao Xiong carefully, understand?”\nProtector Mo glanced at Li Qiye, and then finally nodded his head in agreement. Even though he was a man of few words, he was aware of the situation. At this moment, he immediately knew what to do with Li Qiye’s command.\n“You also go back; here, I alone am enough.” In the end, he also told Li Shuangyan to go back. In this place, he didn’t need Li Shuangyan’s protection. The truth was, with Li Shuangyan’s presence, it wouldn’t be convenient for him to catch the big fish.\nEveryone had left, and only Li Qiye remained. He didn’t do anything except meditate in the grand hall with his eyes closed.\nSoon, the sun had set, and the moon had risen. The night curtain beckoned, and the entire peak was encompassed by a gloomy shadow. At this moment, the four directions were all silent. Outside of the peak, one could faintly hear the howls of the wolves.\nUnder the night sky, the mountains and trees, along with the vines, seemingly became ferocious. There was a transformation in this place. It was as if an evil aura was coming from the ground, as if something ominous wanted to rise from the earth.\n“Whoooooshh…” At this moment, inside the Ghost Pavilion was a howling fierce wind. In but a moment, a black fog appeared inside; it was as if this place was wanting to become hell.\n“Hahahahaa…” Suddenly, waves of sinister laughter came from inside the pavilion as if an evil ghost was hiding in the shadows, staring at Li Qiye.\nLi Qiye, who was sitting in the meditation pose, suddenly opened his eyes. He calmly smiled, and he gracefully said: “I don’t want to personally take action. I only want to ask one thing, where is that zither?”\nAt this moment, Li Qiye was carrying the zither given to him by Nan Huairen, and his five fingers were hovering over the strings.\n“Hahahaha….” The reply to Li Qiye’s question was even more sinister laughters. Afterward, the sounds of ghostly bones creaking filled the air.\nAt this time, Li Qiye focused his eyes and observed. The Ghost Pavilion was no longer here, and he was in an empty unknown wilderness. Looking as far as the eyes can see, it was an endless wasteland.\nThe more frightening matter was that below the ground, there were waves of skeletons crawling up. These skeletons had been here for who knows how many years; they slowly stood up, carried broken swords, and they motioned towards Li Qiye. In the midst of things, Li Qiye was surrounded by the endless sea of skeletons.\n“This type of illusion, to me, is as simple as eating breakfast; it is without meaning.”\n“Phoosh…” At this time, a skeleton struck at Li Qiye with his blade. Li Qiye remained motionless, this blade pierced his body, and blood immediately sputtered; however, Li Qiye was still motionless, and he was still smiling.\n“Creaking, creaking…” Wave after wave, the friction of the bones caused creepy sounds that would frighten others and cause their scalps to tingle; anyone else would immediately turn and run.\nAt this moment, many skeletons had crawled up to Li Qiye. Some grabbed his hands and others his feet, they then lifted him up. They turned to the four directions, and they started to pull; seemingly, they wanted to dismember Li Qiye.\nBeing dismembered by so many skeletons, wave after wave of extreme pain came; it was followed by the spurting of blood. “Phoosh” Next, the arms and legs were removed by the skeletons. His body became two halves, blood came flying out from his body, along with his innards. His head rolled really far away.\nFor anyone else, they would have defended themselves earlier as well as destroy these skeletons, but Li Qiye was still calmly smiling as his head was rolling far away.\nAs his skull was rolling on the ground, Li Qiye, who was still smiling, said: “I only ask one question, where is that zither located? For the sake of an old friend, I won’t make any moves. Once I take action, the consequences would be unimaginable.”\nSuddenly, the scenery changed. There were no longer skeletons, and his body was without harm. Li Qiye was still sitting in the Ghost Pavilion like before.\n“Boom…” Suddenly, Li Qiye’s entire body felt like a floating immortal, with wings extruding from his back. At this moment, in the sky, a heavenly gate was opened. Li Qiye, without another option, walked inside the heavenly gate.\nEntering the heavenly gate, Li Qiye was immersed in the immortal sceneries. Within the immortal palace, he only saw immortal zithers flying, godly mountains floating up and down, brilliantly bright immortal palaces, heavenly weapons, godly treasures, countless materials… and godly stones that would cause countless cultivators to drool.\nEach and all fairies were heavenly frightening beauties. Li Shuangyan could be considered a grand beauty, but to compare to this group of fairies, she would still lose her colors. What was even more stirring to the will of people was that the fairies were only wearing a thin silk veil, draped over their incomparable and beautiful naked bodies; sometimes hidden and sometimes showing. The two group of fairies started to alluringly dance faster; their dances were erotic and extraordinary, and they would cause others’ blood to boil…\nUnder this dance, not mentioning the men, even women couldn’t help but waver in their minds!\n“Wonderful Dancing Style…” Li Qiye remained unmoved just as before, and he said: “Seems to be an old friend!”\nThe dance became increasingly faster and increasingly tantalizing. Even immortals would be attracted by this erotic dance, but Li Qiye was just silently sitting back and admiring the scenery.\nThe illusions, one by one, kept on transforming. Each illusion was meant to attack the seven emotions and six desires of humans. Any cultivator, even if they could successfully pass one illusion, wouldn’t be able to go through the second, the third, the fourth… As long as one was still human, they would naturally have seven emotions and six desires.\nUnfortunately, these illusions were facing Li Qiye. Li Qiye’s willpower was unwavering; he floated throughout countless moons with endless ups and downs. What sufferings and transformations had he not experienced?\nAfter the illusions transformed into different illusions, Li Qiye lost his patience; he finally he opened his mouth: “It seems like you want me to make a move!”\n“Zheng… Zheng… Zheng…” From the five fingers of Li Qiye, the sound of the zither started to play; the entire illusion suddenly collapsed into destruction.\n“Zheng… Zheng… Zheng…” Waves of zither melodies rang in the air. At this moment, the dense melody patterns inside the Ghost Pavilion started to ripple with Li Qiye’s tune.\nOnce the illusion disappeared, a huge monster head appeared inside the pavilion. This head was gigantic; one could only see that it had a bull’s horn, bloody eyes, the body of a snake, and the wings of an eagle; it was dragging along a thick and long bloody tongue.\nLi Qiye stared at this monster and asked in a relaxed manner: “Where is your real body?”\n“Roar!” The monster roared. Facing this roar, the five fingers of Li Qiye stroked down, and the sound of the zither immediately rang. The melody patterns inside the Ghost Pavilion became louder and stronger.\n“Bang” An explosion occurred. Suddenly, there was a crack in the ground of the main hall; an ancient zither, along with melody patterns, suddenly rushed up.\nThis ancient zither was extremely old with moving brilliance. It jumped up, and it suddenly fell into the hands of Li Qiye.\n“Roar!” Seeing the ancient zither falling into the hand of Li Qiye, the monster ferociously roared and rushed towards Li Qiye.\nLi Qiye’s eyes concentrated, and he gravely said: “Back…” His five fingers started to pull at the strings of the ancient zither. Zhang… The zither melody was like a sword. In a flash, the melodic patterns in the entire Ghost Pavilion flashed brightly, becoming terrible sword energies.\n“Phoosh”, the sword energy struck down towards the gigantic monster. After being struck, it flew away to the far distance. The two bloody eyes of the monster stared at Li Qiye, seemingly afraid.\n[1] Intimate friend is made out of two words: “Comprehend” and “Sound”. The words have two meanings – one is someone who can understand your music, the other is your best friend."

李霜颜不由看着眼前这比自己还要小的小男人，他那从容不迫的神态，他那闲定惬意的神态，她已经明白，眼前的小男人已经知道这是什么了。
“这是什么？” 李霜颜不由问道。
作为天之骄女，作为天才，李霜颜从来不妄自菲薄，但是，她研究了这么久，依然搞不明白这纹路的玄奥，然而，此时李七夜却胸有成竹，这让李霜颜都不由有些无奈，眼前的小男人，究竟是不是真的是凡体凡命凡轮！
李七夜看着这密密麻麻的纹路，轻轻地说道，在此时，他的眼睛似乎变得特别的深邃。
在这个时候，李霜颜觉得眼前的小男人似乎是变了一个人，在他身上，似乎承受了无尽的沧桑，在他身上，似乎沉淀了无数的岁月。
“世间憾事，唯缺知音。”
最后，眼前的小男人说出了这么一句莫明其妙的话。
李霜颜不由问道：“你怎么知道这是琴韵？ 这里面所蕴藏的奥秘是什么？”
作为天才的她，作为天之骄女的她，此时，都宛如是一个好学的学生。
“这里面的奥秘嘛，就是一个故事。” 李七夜笑着说道：“至于我怎么知道嘛，掐指一笑。”
李霜颜不由觉得有些无力，眼前的小男人，实在是让她捉摸不透，就拿眼前的琴韵而言，她并不妄自菲薄，她敢说，她的参悟不见得会弱于任何天才，但是，眼前的小男人看一眼，就胸有成竹，这简直就是**！ 这让她都不由怀疑，眼前的小男人还是一个人吗？
“都回去吧，我想一个人静一静。” 最终，李七夜对莫护法他们说道。
南怀仁倒没什么，而莫护法作为监督李七夜面壁的人，他肩负着保护李七夜的责任，他犹豫了一下，说道：“可是，你在这里不安全。” “如果这里都不安全，其他地方就更不安全了。”
李七夜笑了一下，然后吩咐莫护法说道：“你的任务不是保护我，是盯着曹雄，知道吗？”
莫护法看着李七夜一会儿，最后默默地点了点头，他虽然少言寡语，事实上，他还是有一颗玲珑心的，此时李七夜如此吩咐他，他立即明白该怎么样做了。
“你也回去吧，我一个人在这里就够了。” 最后，李七夜也让李霜颜回去，在这里，他不需要李霜颜保护，事实上，李霜颜留在这里，也不方便他钓大鱼。
最终，李霜颜、南怀仁师徒两人都离开了，只剩下李七夜在这里，李七夜留在鬼楼之中，什么都没有做，只是盘坐在大厅之中，闭目养神。
很快，日落月升，夜色降临，整座主峰都笼罩在阴沉的夜色之中，此时，四周万籁无声，主峰之外，隐隐传来狼嚎之声。
在夜色之下，这一片山岭的树木蔓藤看起来似乎都变得狰狞起来，似乎，在这里开始发生了变化一样，似乎，这里的地下冒出了邪气，似乎有不祥的东西要从地下爬起来一样。
“呼——呼——呼——”就在这个时候，鬼楼里面突然是狂风大作，一时之间，鬼楼之内是黑雾浮现，似乎这里要**一样。
“舛——舛——舛——”突然间，鬼楼里响起了一阵阵阴森林的笑声，似乎，鬼楼里有什么恶鬼躲在暗处盯着李七夜一样阴森林地笑。
一直盘坐闭目的李七夜此时张开了眼睛，他从容不迫地笑了一下，悠然地说道：“我不想亲自动手，我只问一个问题，那张琴在哪里！”
在这个时候，李七夜已经抱着南怀仁为他准备的那张琴，他五指搭在了琴弦之上。
“舛——舛——舛——”回应李七夜的只有阴阴的笑声，接着“吱——吱——吱——”一阵阵骨头磨擦的声音响起。
此时，李七夜张目一看之时，哪里有什么鬼楼，此时，他处身于无名的荒野之中，放眼望去，无尽的穷山恶水。
更可怕的是，此时，地下竟然爬起了一尊尊的白骨，一尊尊不知道多少岁月的白骨骷髅从地下爬起来，提着残兵破剑晃悠悠地向李七夜走来，一时之间，无尽的骨山无尽的骷髅海汪把李七夜包围了。
“这种幻境，对于我来说，那只是小菜一碟，微不足道。”
“噗——”就在这个时候，有骷髅提着刀向李七夜斩去，李七夜一动不动，这刀斩在李七夜身上，顿时是鲜血溅射，一阵阵的剧痛，但是，李七夜依然不动，依然笑了一下。
“咯吱——咯吱——咯吱——”一阵阵的骨头磨擦之声听得人毛骨悚然，让人头皮发麻，换作任何人都会转身就逃。
此时，一具具的骷髅爬到了李七夜的身边，拉手的拉手，扯腿的扯腿，一只只骷髅抬起李七夜，往四面八方拔拉着李七夜的四肢，似乎要把李七夜分尸。
被这么多骷髅如此八马分尸，一阵阵剧痛传来，接着是鲜血直流，“噗”的一声，接着李七夜的手脚被骷髅撕开，身体被撕成了两半，鲜血喷射，内脏流得一地都是，头颅滚得很远很远。
若是换作任何人，早就动手反抗了，早就出手轰杀这些骷髅了，然而，头颅滚了很远很远的李七夜依然带着从容的笑容。
“我只问一个问题，那张琴在哪里，念在故人的份上，我就不动手了，如果我动手，后果不堪设想。” 滚在地上的那只头颅，李七夜依然笑着说道。
突然，景象一变，没有骷髅，身体也完好无损，李七夜依然坐在鬼楼之中。
“轰——”突然，李七夜整个人飘飘欲仙，羽化登仙，在这个时候，天上打开了仙门，李七夜身不如己地走入了仙门之中。
走入仙门，李七夜处身于仙境之中，在仙宫之中，只见是仙禽飞舞，神山沉浮，仙宫璀璨，仙兵，神宝，天材……让无数修士垂涎三尺的宝物神石乃是唾手可得。
就在让人迷失在这仙境中时，阵阵仙音响起，两队仙子袅娜而来，一时之间，翩翩起舞，两队仙子围着李七夜，舞了起来。 每一个仙子，都容貌惊天，李霜颜可以说是大美女了，但是，跟眼前的一个个仙子相比起来，依然是失色。
在如此的舞姿之下，莫说是男人，就算是女人都不由为之心神摇曳！
“婆娑妙舞——”李七夜不为所动，依然一笑，说道：“看来是故人了！”
舞姿越来越快，越来越撩人，就算是仙人，只怕都会被这艳舞所吸引，但是，李七夜只是静静坐下来欣赏而己。
幻境一次又一次地变换，若是换作其他修士，每一个幻境都是针对人的七情六欲，不论任何修士，就算能挨得过一个幻境，只怕也不能挨得过第二个第三个第四个……只要是人，总会有七情六欲的。
可惜，这是遇到了李七夜，李七夜道心无可撼动，他沉浮无尽岁月，怎么样的苦难，怎么样的**没有经历过？
随着一个又一个的幻境变换，李七夜已经不耐烦了，最后他开口说道：“看来是要我动手了！”
“铮——铮——铮——”随着李七夜五指一弹，顿时琴声响起，所有的幻境一下子崩灭。
“铮——铮——铮——”琴声阵阵，此时，鬼楼中的密密麻麻的纹路竟然随着李七夜的琴声荡漾起来。
幻境一消失，在这个时候，鬼楼里出现了一头怪物，一头庞大的怪物，只见这头怪物是牛角血眼，蛇身鹏翅，拖着一条又粗又长的血舌。
李七夜看着这怪物，惬意自在地说道。
“呜——”怪物巨响一声，对李七夜咆哮，李七夜五指一划，铮铮铮的琴声顿时响起，鬼楼内的琴韵立即和鸣，越来越强烈。
“啪——”的一声响起，就在这个时候，大厅中央的地面突然裂开，一张古琴随着琴韵的附和一下子冲了起来。
古琴极为古朴，光华流转，它一冲起来，就一下子落入了李七夜的手中。
“嗷——”一见古琴落入了李七夜手中，怪物狂吼一声，向李七夜扑去。
李七夜目光一凝，沉声地说道：“退——”话一落下，五指拔动着古琴的琴弦，“铮——”琴声如剑，瞬间，整座鬼楼中的纹路亮了起来，化作了可怕的剑气。
“噗——”的一声，剑气落下，当场把这巨大的怪物斩飞，怪物被剑气斩飞，滚得远远的，它血红的双眼盯着李七夜，露出了惊惧。
今天三更，继续爆发，请大家投三江票、推荐票，好书离不开大家的支持。

Li Qiye stared at the numerous densely packed patterns. At this moment, his eyes became particularly abstruse, and gently whispered: “Zither melodies.”
At this moment, Li Shuangyan felt that the little boy in front of her had become an entirely different person; it was as if he was the victim of countless vicissitudes as if he was basked in countless moons.
“The most regrettable thing in this world is lacking an intimate friend.” [1]
In the end, the little boy in front of her spoke out such a subtle and ineffable line.
Li Shuangyan couldn’t help but inquire: “How do you know these are zither melodies? What are the mysteries inside these lines?”
The genius heaven’s proud daughter was acting as if she was an eager student.
“Ah, the mysteries inside are of an ancient story.” Li Qiye smilingly said: “As for how I know, I calculated with my fingers.”
Li Shuangyan felt helpless once again. She couldn’t see through this little boy. These zither melodies in front of her, she knew that her understanding would not be lesser than any other genius; however, this little boy, with just a glance, immediately knew what it was. This was too devilish! She couldn’t help but wonder if the little boy in front of her was still human?
Finally, Li Qiye told Protector Mo: “All of you should return, I want to be by myself to quietly contemplate.”
Nan Huairen didn’t have an opinion, and as the observer of Li Qiye for his wall facing meditation as well as his protector, Protector Mo had the responsibilities to look after him. He hesitated, and then he said: “But, you are not safe in this place.”
“If this place isn’t safe, then other places are even more dangerous.” Li Qiye bloomed a smile, and he arranged for Protector Mo: “Your mission isn’t to protect me; it is to watch over Cao Xiong carefully, understand?”
Protector Mo glanced at Li Qiye, and then finally nodded his head in agreement. Even though he was a man of few words, he was aware of the situation. At this moment, he immediately knew what to do with Li Qiye’s command.
“You also go back; here, I alone am enough.” In the end, he also told Li Shuangyan to go back. In this place, he didn’t need Li Shuangyan’s protection. The truth was, with Li Shuangyan’s presence, it wouldn’t be convenient for him to catch the big fish.
Everyone had left, and only Li Qiye remained. He didn’t do anything except meditate in the grand hall with his eyes closed.
Soon, the sun had set, and the moon had risen. The night curtain beckoned, and the entire peak was encompassed by a gloomy shadow. At this moment, the four directions were all silent. Outside of the peak, one could faintly hear the howls of the wolves.
Under the night sky, the mountains and trees, along with the vines, seemingly became ferocious. There was a transformation in this place. It was as if an evil aura was coming from the ground, as if something ominous wanted to rise from the earth.
“Whoooooshh…” At this moment, inside the Ghost Pavilion was a howling fierce wind. In but a moment, a black fog appeared inside; it was as if this place was wanting to become hell.
“Hahahahaa…” Suddenly, waves of sinister laughter came from inside the pavilion as if an evil ghost was hiding in the shadows, staring at Li Qiye.
Li Qiye, who was sitting in the meditation pose, suddenly opened his eyes. He calmly smiled, and he gracefully said: “I don’t want to personally take action. I only want to ask one thing, where is that zither?”
At this moment, Li Qiye was carrying the zither given to him by Nan Huairen, and his five fingers were hovering over the strings.
“Hahahaha….” The reply to Li Qiye’s question was even more sinister laughters. Afterward, the sounds of ghostly bones creaking filled the air.
At this time, Li Qiye focused his eyes and observed. The Ghost Pavilion was no longer here, and he was in an empty unknown wilderness. Looking as far as the eyes can see, it was an endless wasteland.
The more frightening matter was that below the ground, there were waves of skeletons crawling up. These skeletons had been here for who knows how many years; they slowly stood up, carried broken swords, and they motioned towards Li Qiye. In the midst of things, Li Qiye was surrounded by the endless sea of skeletons.
“This type of illusion, to me, is as simple as eating breakfast; it is without meaning.”
“Phoosh…” At this time, a skeleton struck at Li Qiye with his blade. Li Qiye remained motionless, this blade pierced his body, and blood immediately sputtered; however, Li Qiye was still motionless, and he was still smiling.
“Creaking, creaking…” Wave after wave, the friction of the bones caused creepy sounds that would frighten others and cause their scalps to tingle; anyone else would immediately turn and run.
At this moment, many skeletons had crawled up to Li Qiye. Some grabbed his hands and others his feet, they then lifted him up. They turned to the four directions, and they started to pull; seemingly, they wanted to dismember Li Qiye.
Being dismembered by so many skeletons, wave after wave of extreme pain came; it was followed by the spurting of blood. “Phoosh” Next, the arms and legs were removed by the skeletons. His body became two halves, blood came flying out from his body, along with his innards. His head rolled really far away.
For anyone else, they would have defended themselves earlier as well as destroy these skeletons, but Li Qiye was still calmly smiling as his head was rolling far away.
As his skull was rolling on the ground, Li Qiye, who was still smiling, said: “I only ask one question, where is that zither located? For the sake of an old friend, I won’t make any moves. Once I take action, the consequences would be unimaginable.”
Suddenly, the scenery changed. There were no longer skeletons, and his body was without harm. Li Qiye was still sitting in the Ghost Pavilion like before.
“Boom…” Suddenly, Li Qiye’s entire body felt like a floating immortal, with wings extruding from his back. At this moment, in the sky, a heavenly gate was opened. Li Qiye, without another option, walked inside the heavenly gate.
Entering the heavenly gate, Li Qiye was immersed in the immortal sceneries. Within the immortal palace, he only saw immortal zithers flying, godly mountains floating up and down, brilliantly bright immortal palaces, heavenly weapons, godly treasures, countless materials… and godly stones that would cause countless cultivators to drool.
Each and all fairies were heavenly frightening beauties. Li Shuangyan could be considered a grand beauty, but to compare to this group of fairies, she would still lose her colors. What was even more stirring to the will of people was that the fairies were only wearing a thin silk veil, draped over their incomparable and beautiful naked bodies; sometimes hidden and sometimes showing. The two group of fairies started to alluringly dance faster; their dances were erotic and extraordinary, and they would cause others’ blood to boil…
Under this dance, not mentioning the men, even women couldn’t help but waver in their minds!
“Wonderful Dancing Style…” Li Qiye remained unmoved just as before, and he said: “Seems to be an old friend!”
The dance became increasingly faster and increasingly tantalizing. Even immortals would be attracted by this erotic dance, but Li Qiye was just silently sitting back and admiring the scenery.
The illusions, one by one, kept on transforming. Each illusion was meant to attack the seven emotions and six desires of humans. Any cultivator, even if they could successfully pass one illusion, wouldn’t be able to go through the second, the third, the fourth… As long as one was still human, they would naturally have seven emotions and six desires.
Unfortunately, these illusions were facing Li Qiye. Li Qiye’s willpower was unwavering; he floated throughout countless moons with endless ups and downs. What sufferings and transformations had he not experienced?
After the illusions transformed into different illusions, Li Qiye lost his patience; he finally he opened his mouth: “It seems like you want me to make a move!”
“Zheng… Zheng… Zheng…” From the five fingers of Li Qiye, the sound of the zither started to play; the entire illusion suddenly collapsed into destruction.
“Zheng… Zheng… Zheng…” Waves of zither melodies rang in the air. At this moment, the dense melody patterns inside the Ghost Pavilion started to ripple with Li Qiye’s tune.
Once the illusion disappeared, a huge monster head appeared inside the pavilion. This head was gigantic; one could only see that it had a bull’s horn, bloody eyes, the body of a snake, and the wings of an eagle; it was dragging along a thick and long bloody tongue.
Li Qiye stared at this monster and asked in a relaxed manner: “Where is your real body?”
“Roar!” The monster roared. Facing this roar, the five fingers of Li Qiye stroked down, and the sound of the zither immediately rang. The melody patterns inside the Ghost Pavilion became louder and stronger.
“Bang” An explosion occurred. Suddenly, there was a crack in the ground of the main hall; an ancient zither, along with melody patterns, suddenly rushed up.
This ancient zither was extremely old with moving brilliance. It jumped up, and it suddenly fell into the hands of Li Qiye.
“Roar!” Seeing the ancient zither falling into the hand of Li Qiye, the monster ferociously roared and rushed towards Li Qiye.
Li Qiye’s eyes concentrated, and he gravely said: “Back…” His five fingers started to pull at the strings of the ancient zither. Zhang… The zither melody was like a sword. In a flash, the melodic patterns in the entire Ghost Pavilion flashed brightly, becoming terrible sword energies.
“Phoosh”, the sword energy struck down towards the gigantic monster. After being struck, it flew away to the far distance. The two bloody eyes of the monster stared at Li Qiye, seemingly afraid.

"value": "Chapter 55 Resolve\n\"My parents were from the capital city, but I was born in Jiangzhou, so I suppose I'm from Jiangzhou!\" said Qu Le hesitantly.\n\"Why did your parents relocate to Jiangzhou then?\" asked Qin Wanru, with a flash of light across her eyes.\n\"I think they moved here... following their master. My parents were supposed children born to servants in an influential family in the capital city. Later on, they were separated from their master somehow and so ended up in Jiangzhou. They didn't dare to return to the capital city they lost their master.\"\nQu Le blurted out everything she knew even though her father had given her instructions not to reveal certain things. She was not planning to return home because she knew she would be sold as a slave anyways. It seemed to her that her mistress right in front of her was a kind girl, who was able to protect her even in a precarious circumstance a moment ago.\nWhat a strange thing to have happened! However, this had nothing to do with her.\n\"Do you know my elder sister?\" said Qin Wanru, who tried to change the topic as she remembered Qin Yuru's reflection yesterday.\n\"No, I don't know her,\" replied Qu Le, shaking her head as she continued, \"Yesterday was the first time I met Elder Miss Qin.\"\n\"Then why did she target you?\" asked Qin Wanru, looking intently at Qu Le.\n\"I... I don't know too,\" Qu Le was so fearful that she started weeping and continued, \"I've never met Elder Miss Qin, but I've met Qing Xue. I heard that she was working in the General's Mansion.\n\"Qing Xue?\" asked Qin Wanru, batting her lashes.\n\"Yes, it's Qing Xue. Qing Xue's family and I lived in the same village. Qing Yue and I used to play together when we were younger, but later on, we heard that Qing Xue was sold to the General's Mansion. However, I saw her again yesterday and heard that she was just sold to the General's Mansion, but wasn't she already working for the General's Mansion?\"\nQu Le said while wiping away her tears. She had recognized Qing Xue the day before but did not dare to say it. Now that Qin Wanru asked about it so she answered honestly to her question.\nShe was aware that the Madam, as well as Eldest Miss Qin in this house, were not pleased with her. If she were to offend the Second Miss Qin, She would definitely end up being sold again.\nQin Wanru turned to look at Nanny Yu, who shook her head after a moment of pondering and with certainty, she said, \"Miss, I've not seen Qing Xue before.\"\nQing Xue was quite an outstanding maid. It was unlikely that Nanny Yu did not notice her if she had been working in the General's Mansion. She truly could not recall seeing her as a maid in the mansion.\n\"Do you want to ask her?\" suggested Nanny Yu.\nQin Wanru shook her head and turned her eyes back to Qu Le, saying, \"Qu Le, since I'm the who saved you, I can also sell you away. If you remain loyal to me from henceforth, you can be assured that nothing will happen to you. However, if I find out that you are double-minded, you know what the consequence will be!\"\n\"Yes, I know. Rest assured, Miss, I will remain faithful to you will never betray you!\" said a clever Qu Le, wiping her tears as she pledged her loyalty. \"I will find out about Qing Xue and report to you, Miss,\" continued Qing Yue.\nShe overheard the conversation between Nanny Yu and Qin Wanru earlier on and was aware that Second Miss Qin was interested in the things concerning Qing Xue, so she raised this issue to Qin Wanru straight away.\nNodding, Qin Wanru said, \"Go and wash up. Try not to go out of this courtyard in the coming few days.\"\n\"Yes, I will,\" replied Qu Le. She had been so scared, so when Qin Wanru told her to excuse herself, she breathed a sigh of relief, sit up in her kneeling position and gave Qin Wanru and bow, before she left the room in a respectful manner.\nWhen she reached the corridor, she wiped away her tears and headed to the room where Nanny Yu prepared all the new clothes for the maids, to get changed.\nCoincidentally, Qing Yue was also in that changing room. When she spotted Qu Le, she gave her a cold glance and turned to leave.\n\"Wait a minute, Qing Xue!\" Qu Le called out to her.\n\"What is it?\" said Qing Xue coldly.\n\"You... don't you recognize me? I'm...\" Qu Le said with caution as she observed Qing Xue's expression closely.\n\"You must have gotten the wrong person, I don't know you!\" said Qing Xue, who looked at her with indifference and turned to leave.\nStaring at Qing Xue's back, Qu Le frowned. Although they haven't met each other for a few years she could still recognize that Qing Xue was her playmate when they were young. Why did Qing Yue pretend not to recognize her?\nThis... had to be intentional!\nThe fight between the two maids was blown out of proportion, then it was said that the new maid did not know the protocol of General's Mansion, that she was a liar who deceived Second Miss Qin into believing that she was innocent, and Xi Huan, who was Elder Miss Qin's maid was sent away as a result.\nIt was also said Madam was a kind woman who could not bear to see Second Miss Qin being upset and therefore let Qu Le off.\nFrom the mouth of Nanny Yu, Qin Wanru gathered countless rumors, saying that Qu Le was no good at all, that she was full of lies and was not trustworthy. As for why such an ill-behaved maid was kept in the General's Mansion was mainly because Mrs. Qin doted on her youngest daughter and did according to what she willed.\nIt was also rumored that Mrs. Qin had sent for an experienced maid to warn and advise Qin Wanru not to trust in Qu Le and her words too much.\n\"All the many rumors boiled down to the accusation that she has been lying!\" said Qin Wanru, as she walked to her dressing table and sat down.\n\"I suppose this was what all of them meant!\" said Nanny Yu, nodding. \"I am still clueless as to what Madam wants to achieve.\"\n\"She doesn't want us to believe whatever Qu Le says,\" Qin Wanru said cooly with a smile.\n\"If it were just concerning the words spoken by a maid, why would Madam make so much effort?\" said Nanny Yu, puzzled. She truly could not see the purpose behind all these.\nFirst of all, Elder Miss Qin had asked for her, then she framed her and wanted to chase her out of the house. It seemed that a lot of troubles were related to her.\n\"Don't be too bothered about her. Let's just watch patiently!\" said Qin Wanru. There was definitely something fishy about Qing Xue as well as Qu Le. She would put the two of them together and see who was the greater problem. Suddenly, Qin Wanru said, \"Is everything ready for us to go to Jingxin Monastery?\"\n\"Everything has been prepared, but...\" Nanny Yu hesitated for a moment then said, \"I heard that Elder Miss Qin is also going long.\"\n\"Does big sister still want to go to Jingxin Monastery in her current state?\" asked Qin Wanru as she looked into the mirror and gritted her teeth.\n\"She said she wants to tag along so she can ask the reverend to have a look at her burn,\" replied Nanny Yu.\nThe statement sounded logical and Qin Wanru pondered over it for a while and said, \"Did Aunt give any instructions on what time to get up?\"\n\"Miss Shui had not sent men over to tell us yet, but I think it wouldn't be too early. Old Grandma's still not well and I don't think she can get up that early,\" said Nanny Yu as she analyzed the situation.\nNanny Yu was right. Qin Wanru nodded and she pulled out a book on medicine from a shelf in the dressing table and opened it up on the dresser top.\n\"Are you reading on medicine again, Miss?\" asked Nanny Yu as she looked over her shoulder. Recently, Miss Qin seemed to have lost interest in reading the other books but concentrated on books on medicine and this made Nanny wonder.\nQin Yuru used to enjoy comic books, so much so she would visit the book stores whenever they go out of the mansion. She would secret buy some comic books and hide them under her bed. In fact, they were still there, under her bed at this moment.\n\"I want to study medicine,\" replied Qin Wanru, flipping through the pages and nodding as she read. At this time in her previous life, she was clueless about the subject of medicine. Since the day Mingqui Nun took notice of her and gave her a book on medicine, she had chucked it aside and never read it.\nSubsequently, she did pick up some medical skill from taking care of the person with a long-term illness, so much so he became better. Although this person was highly competent in his medical skills, he could not save himself.\nWhen Qin Wanru came to think of this, she felt a pinch of pain in her nose and tears welled up in her eyes. If she ever got a second chance, she wanted to save that man who taught her the medical skill. In fact, the delay of medical treatment had been the main reason he did not recover eventually.\nQin Wanru wanted to take this opportunity when she visited Jingxin Monastery to tell Mingqiu Nun that she wanted to study medicine.\n\"Are you thinking of studying medicine under Mingqiu Nun, Miss?\" asked Nanny Yu, almost reading Qin Wanru's mind. However, Nanny Yu was still surprised and she said, \"It would be hard-going and Old Grandma would not agree to it.\"\nOld Grandma doted on Second Miss Qin and would not allow her to be overtired.\n\"Grandma will agree. Age is catching up with her. If I can master medical skills, I would be able to take care of her something befalls her!\" Qin Wanru said, sighing softly. She was equipped with some medical skills, however, she was not supposed to have any medical knowledge at this time in her previous life, so she did not dare to show it.\nHowever, once she understudied with Mingqiu Nun, she could openly show that she knew medical skills.\nStudying medicine was not just to save herself, but to save others. All the more, she was going to save the life of the man she so wanted to save in her previous life.\nIn her previous life, he was the person she was grateful to in her limited lifetime.\nIn the morning the next day, Qin Wanru first went over to Old Grandma's to make sure that the preparation was complete. Once Old Grandma woke up, she returned to her room to eat her breakfast. By the time she was done with breakfast, Shui Ruolan had sent men to fetch her.\nThe horse carriages were parked at the main gates, waiting for them to embark. There were altogether four horse-carriages. The first one was the largest of them all, which was for Old Grandma and Shui Ruolan. The second carriage was for Qin Yuru and the third for Qin Wanru, while their belongings and other servants took the last carriage.\nBy the time Qin Wanru came to the gates, Qin Yuru had been waiting there for some time. When she spotted Qin Wanru, she smiled warmly and said, \"Second Little Sister, do you want to come in my carriage? We can keep each other company while chatting.\"\n\"Elder Sister, both of us have been injured, which means at some point during the journey, we may need to lie down to rest. I'm afraid there wouldn't be enough space for both of us to lie down,\" replied Qin Wanru, shaking her head.\nIf the two of them were to share the same carriage, it would appear that they had a good relationship. However, Qin Wanru was not willing to put up that false front for their relationship.\nNot expecting Qin Wanru to outrightly reject her offer, Qin Yuru's expression turned cold as she said, \"Since you're not willing, forget it then.\"\nAfter speaking, Qin Yuru did not want to wait for Qin Wanru any longer. She boarded the second carriage, holding on to Mei Xue's hand. On the other hand, Qin Wanru continued waiting outside, and soon Shui Ruolan, helping Old Grandma by holding on to her, arrived. Qin Huaiyong and his wife were accompanying her as the group of people walked through the gates of the General's Mansion.\nQin Wanru took out a small stool from within the horse carriages for Old Grandma to step on as she supported her grandmother's weight. A few other servants who had hopped on to the carriage together helped pull Old Grandma up the horse carriage."

第五十五章
“奴婢的父母都是京城人氏，但奴婢是在江洲出生的，应当算是江洲人氏吧！” 曲乐犹豫的道。
“那你父母怎么到江洲来的？” 秦宛如水眸处闪了一闪，问道。
“好象是跟着……他们的主子来的，奴婢父母好象是京中某个府里的家生子，后来和主子失散了，才流落至江洲，因为主子不见了，他们也不敢回京去。”
曲乐这时候有什么说什么，平日里父亲叮嘱不能说的话，也一骨脑的说了出来，她不要回家去，反正回家也是一个被买，还不如眼前的这位主子看起来倒有几分良善，在方才这样的情况下，居然也护得住自己。
居然还有这种事情，但这事跟自己并没有关系。
“你认识我大姐？” 秦宛如想起昨天秦玉如的反应，换了一个话题道。 “奴婢不认识。”
曲乐摇了摇头，“奴婢昨天也是第一次看到大小姐。”
“那大姐为什么要对付你？” 秦宛如目光沉沉的落在曲乐的身上。
“奴……奴婢也不知道。” 曲乐吓得哭了起来，“奴婢以前没见过大小姐，但奴婢以前见过清雪，听说清雪好象是在将军府当差的。”
“清雪？” 秦宛如长睫扑闪了两下，问道。
“对，是清雪，清雪家就在奴婢的一个村上，清雪和奴婢小时候一起玩过，但后来清雪被卖了，听说是卖到将军府，可是昨天，昨天奴婢又看到她了，而她又被卖到将军府来了，明明她之前就己经进了将军府的。”
曲乐抹了一把眼泪道，她昨天就认出了清雪，但是不敢说话，这会听秦宛如这么一问，不管有没有用，都说了出来。
这府里夫人和大小姐己经不喜欢她了，若是再惹得二小姐不高兴，她必然又是被卖的下场。
秦宛如转头看向玉嬷嬷，玉嬷嬷想了想摇了摇头，肯定的道：“小姐，奴婢没见过清雪。”
清雪算是一个出色的丫环，如果真的在将军府，玉嬷嬷不可能没见过，但她现在怎么想都想不起来，有这么一个丫环在。
“要不要去问问她？” 玉嬷嬷提议道。
秦宛如摇了摇头，目光重新落在曲乐的身上：“曲乐，我把你救了回来，同样也能把你卖掉，这以后你如果忠心耿耿，自然不会有事，但若是让我发现你有什么三心二意的地方，你应当知道会有什么后果！”
“是，奴婢知道，小姐放心，奴婢必然对您忠心不二，绝不会背判您！” 曲乐一看就知道是个机灵的，抹着眼泪表忠心道，“清雪的事，奴婢也会打听清楚禀报小姐的。”
她方才听玉嬷嬷和秦宛如的话，知道二小姐对这个清雪感兴趣，立时把她的事提了出来。
秦宛如点了点头，“先下去梳洗一下吧，这几日少去院外。”
曲乐这次真的是吓坏了，听秦宛如让她下去，才真正的松了口气，急忙坐直又向秦宛如行了一个礼，之后才恭敬的退了出来。
站到廊下，抹了抹眼泪，去了玉嬷嬷替她们新调节好的屋子去换衣裳。
屋内清雪正在里面，看到曲乐进来，冷冷的扫了她一眼，转身就要出去。
“清雪，你等一下！” 曲乐喊住她。
“什么事？” 清雪冷冷的道。
我是……”曲乐小心翼翼的开口道，一边察看着清雪的神色。
“你认错人了，我不认识你！” 清雪冷冰冰的看了她一眼，转身离开。
曲乐看着她的背影，紧紧的皱起了眉头，纵然有几年没见她，但她还是能认出清雪就是自己小时候的玩伴，可清雪为什么不认识她了？
这是……故意的吧！
两个丫环闹事打架的事情被放大了起来，都说新来的丫环是个不识礼数，而且还是个满嘴谎话的，哄得二小姐相信她是无辜的，倒把大小姐身边的喜环给迁了出去。
又说夫人是个良善的，不忍看到二小姐伤心，所以才会饶过了曲乐。
秦宛如从玉嬷嬷口里得到林林总总的许多流言，就是表示曲乐不是一个好的，说的话都是谎话，是不可信的，至于这么一个品行极差的丫环为什么会留下来，全是因为狄氏爱护自己的小女儿。
当然狄氏那边也派了个婆子过来，又特意的叮嘱秦宛如，别重用曲乐，也别过于相信她的话。
这丫头就是一个奸猾的。 “林林总总这么多的话，都是表示她说谎了！” 秦宛如走到自己妆台前坐下，随意的道。
“老奴觉得，大概就是这个意思吧！” 玉嬷嬷点了点头，“老奴到现在也不知道夫人到底想干什么。”
“想让我们不相信曲乐的话了。” 秦宛如微微一笑，淡淡的道。
“一个丫头的话而己地，夫人用得着这么大动干戈吗！” 玉嬷嬷表示不理解，她是真看不懂这里面的意思。
先是大小姐要这个丫环，之后又是陷害这个丫环，想把她赶出去，怎么看这丫头身上都有事情。 “先不必管她，慢慢看吧！”
秦宛如道，清雪有问题、曲乐也有问题，那就把她们放在一起，她倒要看看谁的问题更大一些，“去静心庵的东西都准备妥当了没有？”
“己经准备妥当了，但是……”玉嬷嬷犹豫了一下，“听说大小姐也会去。”
“大姐这种情况也要去静心庵？” 秦宛如看了看妆镜中自己的脸，咬了咬唇。
“说是一起去，顺便也让静心庵主帮着大小姐看看烫伤。” 玉嬷嬷答道。
这话说的极是有礼，秦宛如稍稍想了想，便道：“姨母那边有吩咐明天什么时候起身吗？”
“水小姐还没有吩咐人过来，老奴觉得应当不会早，老夫人的身体不好，起太早了不行。” 玉嬷嬷帮着她分析道。
这话说的极是，秦宛如点了点头，从妆台的下面一格里把一本医书翻了出来，铺在妆台上。
“小姐，您又看医书了？” 玉嬷嬷探过头来张了张，问道，这几天小姐以前喜欢看的话本子都不看了，就一直看医书，倒是让玉嬷嬷觉得奇怪。
秦宛如以往最喜欢看的就是外面那些话本子，每次出府的时候，总是想法子偷偷去书肆，找个几本悄悄卖了带进来，到现在床底下还有好多话本子。
“我要学医。” 秦宛如翻了一页，一边看一边点了点头，上一世，这个时候，她是一点也不懂的，既便明秋师太看中她，送了她这么一本医书，她也没看过，只是随意的扔在一边。
但后来在照顾病人的情况下，她倒是学过一段时间的医术，久病成良病，那个人的医术很高超，但既便是再高超的医术，也是不能自救。
想到这里，眼眸中闪过一丝酸涩，如果有机会，她想救那个人，那个教了她医术的人，他的病其实也是被担误了的。
这一次，借着去静心庵的机会，她想向明秋师太说明她想学医术。
“小姐是打算去跟明秋师太学医？” 玉嬷嬷是知道秦宛如的事情的，听她这么一说，一惊，“这么辛苦，老夫人不会同意的。”
老夫人疼爱二小姐，不愿意她太过劳累。
“祖母会同意的，祖母的身体也大了，若是我学好了医术，这以后就算祖母有些什么事，我也可以照看好祖母！”
秦宛如轻叹了一声道，她其实是会一些医术的，但因为之前自己没学过，不敢拿出来。
学医，不只是自治，而且也为救人，而且还是要救一个她上一世一心想救的那个人。
上一世，在自己有限的生命中，这人，她感恩！
第二天早上，秦宛如先去看过老夫人，看到老夫人那边己准备妥当，就等着老夫人起身，也就先回来用早膳，等她这会用完，水若兰也派了人过来，让她带着人出去。
马车就停在大门口，四辆马车，第一辆最大，是老夫人和水若兰坐的，第二辆是秦玉如，第三辆是秦宛如，至少其他的一些杂物和没有跟着主子坐在马车里的下人就一起在第四辆马车里面。
秦宛如出来的时候秦玉如早己等在门口，看到秦宛如出来，她忽然温和的笑了：“二妹妹，要不要和我坐一辆马车？ 我们一起坐着聊会天。”
这亲亲热热的样子，还真的象是什么事也没发生。 “大姐，我们两个都伤着，可能要躺一会，马车里躺两个人，恐怕不行。” 秦宛如摇了摇头。
两个人坐一辆马车，显得两个人很要好的样子，在眼下的这种情况下在，秦宛如没有和秦玉如表示你好我好的想法。
秦玉如没想到秦宛如居然在大门口拒绝她，脸上的笑容冷了下来：“既然二妹妹不愿意跟我坐同一辆车，那就算了。”
说完也不再等着秦宛如，扶着梅雪的手上了第二辆马车，秦宛如又等在外面一会，没多久看到水若兰扶着老夫人出来，秦怀永和狄氏在两边相陪，一大群人出了将军府的大门口。
秦宛如从车辕前拿过一张小几子，见老夫人过来，忙伸手扶了她一把，又有跳上马车在上面拉，几个人一起合力把老夫人拉上了马车！

Chapter 55 Resolve
"My parents were from the capital city, but I was born in Jiangzhou, so I suppose I'm from Jiangzhou!" said Qu Le hesitantly.
"Why did your parents relocate to Jiangzhou then?" asked Qin Wanru, with a flash of light across her eyes.
"I think they moved here... following their master. My parents were supposed children born to servants in an influential family in the capital city. Later on, they were separated from their master somehow and so ended up in Jiangzhou. They didn't dare to return to the capital city they lost their master."
Qu Le blurted out everything she knew even though her father had given her instructions not to reveal certain things. She was not planning to return home because she knew she would be sold as a slave anyways. It seemed to her that her mistress right in front of her was a kind girl, who was able to protect her even in a precarious circumstance a moment ago.
What a strange thing to have happened! However, this had nothing to do with her.
"Do you know my elder sister?" said Qin Wanru, who tried to change the topic as she remembered Qin Yuru's reflection yesterday.
"No, I don't know her," replied Qu Le, shaking her head as she continued, "Yesterday was the first time I met Elder Miss Qin."
"Then why did she target you?" asked Qin Wanru, looking intently at Qu Le.
"I... I don't know too," Qu Le was so fearful that she started weeping and continued, "I've never met Elder Miss Qin, but I've met Qing Xue. I heard that she was working in the General's Mansion.
"Qing Xue?" asked Qin Wanru, batting her lashes.
"Yes, it's Qing Xue. Qing Xue's family and I lived in the same village. Qing Yue and I used to play together when we were younger, but later on, we heard that Qing Xue was sold to the General's Mansion. However, I saw her again yesterday and heard that she was just sold to the General's Mansion, but wasn't she already working for the General's Mansion?"
Qu Le said while wiping away her tears. She had recognized Qing Xue the day before but did not dare to say it. Now that Qin Wanru asked about it so she answered honestly to her question.
She was aware that the Madam, as well as Eldest Miss Qin in this house, were not pleased with her. If she were to offend the Second Miss Qin, She would definitely end up being sold again.
Qin Wanru turned to look at Nanny Yu, who shook her head after a moment of pondering and with certainty, she said, "Miss, I've not seen Qing Xue before."
Qing Xue was quite an outstanding maid. It was unlikely that Nanny Yu did not notice her if she had been working in the General's Mansion. She truly could not recall seeing her as a maid in the mansion.
"Do you want to ask her?" suggested Nanny Yu.
Qin Wanru shook her head and turned her eyes back to Qu Le, saying, "Qu Le, since I'm the who saved you, I can also sell you away. If you remain loyal to me from henceforth, you can be assured that nothing will happen to you. However, if I find out that you are double-minded, you know what the consequence will be!"
"Yes, I know. Rest assured, Miss, I will remain faithful to you will never betray you!" said a clever Qu Le, wiping her tears as she pledged her loyalty. "I will find out about Qing Xue and report to you, Miss," continued Qing Yue.
She overheard the conversation between Nanny Yu and Qin Wanru earlier on and was aware that Second Miss Qin was interested in the things concerning Qing Xue, so she raised this issue to Qin Wanru straight away.
Nodding, Qin Wanru said, "Go and wash up. Try not to go out of this courtyard in the coming few days."
"Yes, I will," replied Qu Le. She had been so scared, so when Qin Wanru told her to excuse herself, she breathed a sigh of relief, sit up in her kneeling position and gave Qin Wanru and bow, before she left the room in a respectful manner.
When she reached the corridor, she wiped away her tears and headed to the room where Nanny Yu prepared all the new clothes for the maids, to get changed.
Coincidentally, Qing Yue was also in that changing room. When she spotted Qu Le, she gave her a cold glance and turned to leave.
"Wait a minute, Qing Xue!" Qu Le called out to her.
"What is it?" said Qing Xue coldly.
"You... don't you recognize me? I'm..." Qu Le said with caution as she observed Qing Xue's expression closely.
"You must have gotten the wrong person, I don't know you!" said Qing Xue, who looked at her with indifference and turned to leave.
Staring at Qing Xue's back, Qu Le frowned. Although they haven't met each other for a few years she could still recognize that Qing Xue was her playmate when they were young. Why did Qing Yue pretend not to recognize her?
This... had to be intentional!
The fight between the two maids was blown out of proportion, then it was said that the new maid did not know the protocol of General's Mansion, that she was a liar who deceived Second Miss Qin into believing that she was innocent, and Xi Huan, who was Elder Miss Qin's maid was sent away as a result.
It was also said Madam was a kind woman who could not bear to see Second Miss Qin being upset and therefore let Qu Le off.
From the mouth of Nanny Yu, Qin Wanru gathered countless rumors, saying that Qu Le was no good at all, that she was full of lies and was not trustworthy. As for why such an ill-behaved maid was kept in the General's Mansion was mainly because Mrs. Qin doted on her youngest daughter and did according to what she willed.
It was also rumored that Mrs. Qin had sent for an experienced maid to warn and advise Qin Wanru not to trust in Qu Le and her words too much.
"All the many rumors boiled down to the accusation that she has been lying!" said Qin Wanru, as she walked to her dressing table and sat down.
"I suppose this was what all of them meant!" said Nanny Yu, nodding. "I am still clueless as to what Madam wants to achieve."
"She doesn't want us to believe whatever Qu Le says," Qin Wanru said cooly with a smile.
"If it were just concerning the words spoken by a maid, why would Madam make so much effort?" said Nanny Yu, puzzled. She truly could not see the purpose behind all these.
First of all, Elder Miss Qin had asked for her, then she framed her and wanted to chase her out of the house. It seemed that a lot of troubles were related to her.
"Don't be too bothered about her. Let's just watch patiently!" said Qin Wanru. There was definitely something fishy about Qing Xue as well as Qu Le. She would put the two of them together and see who was the greater problem. Suddenly, Qin Wanru said, "Is everything ready for us to go to Jingxin Monastery?"
"Everything has been prepared, but..." Nanny Yu hesitated for a moment then said, "I heard that Elder Miss Qin is also going long."
"Does big sister still want to go to Jingxin Monastery in her current state?" asked Qin Wanru as she looked into the mirror and gritted her teeth.
"She said she wants to tag along so she can ask the reverend to have a look at her burn," replied Nanny Yu.
The statement sounded logical and Qin Wanru pondered over it for a while and said, "Did Aunt give any instructions on what time to get up?"
"Miss Shui had not sent men over to tell us yet, but I think it wouldn't be too early. Old Grandma's still not well and I don't think she can get up that early," said Nanny Yu as she analyzed the situation.
Nanny Yu was right. Qin Wanru nodded and she pulled out a book on medicine from a shelf in the dressing table and opened it up on the dresser top.
"Are you reading on medicine again, Miss?" asked Nanny Yu as she looked over her shoulder. Recently, Miss Qin seemed to have lost interest in reading the other books but concentrated on books on medicine and this made Nanny wonder.
Qin Yuru used to enjoy comic books, so much so she would visit the book stores whenever they go out of the mansion. She would secret buy some comic books and hide them under her bed. In fact, they were still there, under her bed at this moment.
"I want to study medicine," replied Qin Wanru, flipping through the pages and nodding as she read. At this time in her previous life, she was clueless about the subject of medicine. Since the day Mingqui Nun took notice of her and gave her a book on medicine, she had chucked it aside and never read it.
Subsequently, she did pick up some medical skill from taking care of the person with a long-term illness, so much so he became better. Although this person was highly competent in his medical skills, he could not save himself.
When Qin Wanru came to think of this, she felt a pinch of pain in her nose and tears welled up in her eyes. If she ever got a second chance, she wanted to save that man who taught her the medical skill. In fact, the delay of medical treatment had been the main reason he did not recover eventually.
Qin Wanru wanted to take this opportunity when she visited Jingxin Monastery to tell Mingqiu Nun that she wanted to study medicine.
"Are you thinking of studying medicine under Mingqiu Nun, Miss?" asked Nanny Yu, almost reading Qin Wanru's mind. However, Nanny Yu was still surprised and she said, "It would be hard-going and Old Grandma would not agree to it."
Old Grandma doted on Second Miss Qin and would not allow her to be overtired.
"Grandma will agree. Age is catching up with her. If I can master medical skills, I would be able to take care of her something befalls her!" Qin Wanru said, sighing softly. She was equipped with some medical skills, however, she was not supposed to have any medical knowledge at this time in her previous life, so she did not dare to show it.
However, once she understudied with Mingqiu Nun, she could openly show that she knew medical skills.
Studying medicine was not just to save herself, but to save others. All the more, she was going to save the life of the man she so wanted to save in her previous life.
In her previous life, he was the person she was grateful to in her limited lifetime.
In the morning the next day, Qin Wanru first went over to Old Grandma's to make sure that the preparation was complete. Once Old Grandma woke up, she returned to her room to eat her breakfast. By the time she was done with breakfast, Shui Ruolan had sent men to fetch her.
The horse carriages were parked at the main gates, waiting for them to embark. There were altogether four horse-carriages. The first one was the largest of them all, which was for Old Grandma and Shui Ruolan. The second carriage was for Qin Yuru and the third for Qin Wanru, while their belongings and other servants took the last carriage.
By the time Qin Wanru came to the gates, Qin Yuru had been waiting there for some time. When she spotted Qin Wanru, she smiled warmly and said, "Second Little Sister, do you want to come in my carriage? We can keep each other company while chatting."
"Elder Sister, both of us have been injured, which means at some point during the journey, we may need to lie down to rest. I'm afraid there wouldn't be enough space for both of us to lie down," replied Qin Wanru, shaking her head.
If the two of them were to share the same carriage, it would appear that they had a good relationship. However, Qin Wanru was not willing to put up that false front for their relationship.
Not expecting Qin Wanru to outrightly reject her offer, Qin Yuru's expression turned cold as she said, "Since you're not willing, forget it then."
After speaking, Qin Yuru did not want to wait for Qin Wanru any longer. She boarded the second carriage, holding on to Mei Xue's hand. On the other hand, Qin Wanru continued waiting outside, and soon Shui Ruolan, helping Old Grandma by holding on to her, arrived. Qin Huaiyong and his wife were accompanying her as the group of people walked through the gates of the General's Mansion.
Qin Wanru took out a small stool from within the horse carriages for Old Grandma to step on as she supported her grandmother's weight. A few other servants who had hopped on to the carriage together helped pull Old Grandma up the horse carriage.

"value": "Chapter 526: Singlehandedly\nIn a hidden cave somewhere, a bunch of protective formations were engaged. These protective formations could hide the aura of the cave, as well as bewitch any living being that came close, keeping the place in a state of stealth.\nAt this moment, a group of beings from the thousands of races out were hidden within this cave. They were dressed differently in a few different groups.\nDragon race, Horn race, Wings race, Giant race, et cetera…\nAfter settling down his tribesmen, Xiesheng came over with his bunch of seniors.\nThe scale of operation this time round was massive. Six major sects had gathered tens of thousands of disciples to head forth towards Despair City in order to rescue their fellow comrades trapped within that place.\nThey had received news that the Marquis of Despair wasn't in the city right now. They had their own suspicions at the start as well towards the credibility of this news. However, upon further inspection, they had affirmed that this was a legitimate piece of news.\nThe Marquis of Despair was someone who would never leave the Despair City. Now that he had done so, this was practically a once in a lifetime opportunity.\n\"Seniors, do you guys think that the rescue operation this time around would be successful? Can we truly overthrow the Despair City?\" Xiesheng was filled with hope as he looked around at the sheer number of people gathered. However, the thought of having to go against the notoriously horrifying the Marquis of Despair was still giving him the shivers.\n\"That goes without saying. Six major sects with tens of thousands of disciples! Furthermore, we've got thirty Elders here of desolate celestial cultivation state. This is a really formidable force that's gathered. Even if the Marquis of Despair were around, this wouldn't be a completely hopeless operation. However, in order to minimize casualties, choosing to strike when the Marquis of Despair isn't around is the best chance we could ever hope for.\" Mu Longtian replied.\n\"This time around, Elder Dulong is making his appearance personally. There's nothing that's impossible with that.\" Long Yue'er continued.\n\"That's right. Elder Dulong is a powerful being who had duelled the Marquis of Despair for an entire day and night in the past. With the presence of such a powerful and experience elderly being, there is nothing that's impossible.\" Xiesheng's heart heaved a huge sigh of relief with that.\n\"Xiesheng, how are your tribesmen doing?\" Suddenly, a stern voice boomed across from the distance.\nA middle aged man walked over briskly. Every single step he took seemed to be filled with a deep, mysterious power, as he appeared before all of them in an instant.\nThis middle aged man was evidently trained in a set of unparalleled skills; and to an extremely high level with that.\n\"Elder Dulong!\" Everyone cusped their fists and greeted with respect. Even the haughty Mu Tianlong's face was filled with nothing but admiration right now.\n\"Everything has been settled! The moment I arrived, I didn't not manage to engage the ancient race beings in a duel. All of them had been slain by a single man from the Human race.\" Xiesheng reported the truth.\n\"Human race?\" The moment Dulong heard this, a cryptic look appeared on his face, as though he was really interested in this Human.\n\"The Human race had gone under the radar for around 10,000 years now. To think that a single human would appear here. Could this man have ascended from the Lower World of the Humans?\" Dulong was quite curious.\nRight now in the Ancient Saint World, it was easy to bump into beings of so many races. However, it would take more than a miracle to bump into a single human being.\nThe only two known supreme existences of the Human race had long entered seclusion, rescinding their involvement in the affairs of the Ancient Saint World.\nThis was an open secret in the Ancient Saint World. Some of the beings of the thousands of races viewed these two as mere cowards who have gone into hiding.\nHowever, Dulong did not think the same. He knew that the only reason they would even have the confidence to retaliate and stand up for themselves was because of the five powerful beings from the Human race who had killed the Ancient One, one of the eight utmost beings of the ancient race.\n\"Elder, that human was nothing but an egomaniac. He may have already died in the hands of the ancient race.\" Mu Tianlong scoffed in disdain.\n\"Hmm? What's going on?\" Dulong asked in puzzlement.\n\"Elder, after slaying those beings of the ancient race, that human headed straight towards Despair City, claiming that he was gunning for the Marquis of Despair's life.\" Xiesheng replied worriedly.\nNo matter what, that human was a benefactor of his tribe. If he were to die off just like that, it would be a real pity.\n\"That human was far too arrogant. The Marquis of Despair has controlled the Despair City for thousands of years, with his foundation embedded deeply. Even the six of us major sects would have to go full force in order to deal with him, let alone harbour any thoughts of killing him. All he has is some dumb guts.\" Long Yue'er carried on.\n\"Forget it, forget it. Everyone, head off to prepare. We'll leave in a bit. This time around, we've got to seize the opportunity when the Marquis of Despair isn't around to rescue everyone out of the Despair City.\" Dulong sighed for a moment before waving his hand dismissively.\nHe couldn't bring himself to believe that a single human could take down the Marquis of Despair. After all, he was the clearest about the Marquis of Despair's true strength. Furthermore, there was a secret that he would never ever speak of.\nIn his great battle with the Marquis of Despair back then, he could sense that the Marquis of Despair was just toying around with him.

第五百二十六章
一处隐蔽的洞穴之中，周围被加持着许多隐蔽的阵法，这些阵法可以隐藏气息，同时还能迷惑众生，让这里变的更加隐蔽安全。
此时一群大千种族生灵，隐藏在这里，这些种族生灵穿着各异，分为几种。
龙族，角族，翼族，巨人族……。
谢升将族人们安排好后，便跟师兄们一同回来了。
这一次的行动很浩大，六大宗门，集合了数万名弟子去绝望城，解救那些被困在绝望城的同胞们。
他们得到了情报，绝望侯不在绝望城之中，至于这情报是真是假，他们也有怀疑，不过后来也有密探打探了一番，最终肯定这是真实的。
绝望侯从不会离开绝望城，可是这一次离开了绝望城，那是千载难逢的机会啊。
“师兄，你们说，这一次我们能否将绝望城推翻，解救出那些同胞？” 谢升看着众人，心中也是充满了无限希望，但是即将面对的是，号称最为恐怖的绝望侯，内心也是有些紧张了。
“这还用说，自然能成，六大宗门，数万弟子，三十名荒天位境界的长老，这是一股恐怖的力量，就算是绝望侯在，也不是没有希望，只是为了减少损伤，只能等待绝望侯不在的时候出动。” 牧龙天说道。
“这一次烛龙长老亲征，还有什么不可能。” 龙月儿说道。
“也是，烛龙长老可是跟绝望侯大战一天一夜的无上强者，有他老人家在，还有什么不可能。” 谢升心中不由的松了一口气。
……。 “谢升，你将你的同族安排的怎么样了？” 就在这时，一道威严之音，从不远方传来。
一名中年男子徐徐走来，每一步都仿佛暗藏奥义，刹那之间，出现在众人的面前。
显然这名中年男子身怀一名无上身法，同时还修炼到了很高的境界。
“烛龙长老。” 众人抱拳恭敬的问候着。 就算是孤傲无比的牧龙天，此刻也是面带恭敬之色。
“一切都已经安排好了，弟子等人到那里的时候，并没有跟古族交手，所有古族都被一名人族斩杀了。” 谢升如实回答道。
“人族？” 烛龙听闻，神色微微有些诧异，仿佛对于人族很是好奇一般。
“人族隐士万年之久，如今有人族出现在这里，莫非是人族下界的飞升者不成？” 烛龙心中疑惑。
如今在古圣界，想要遇到大千种族很是容易，但是想要找到人族，却是难上加上。
人族已知的只有两位无上存在，可惜也都已经隐世不出，从不参与古圣界之事。
这已经是古圣界公开的秘密，在一些大千种族生灵的眼里，这两位唯一人族无上存在，根本就是贪生怕死之辈。
但是在烛龙看来却不是这般，因为万年前，如果不是人族五位强者，将古族至高之一“亘古”斩杀，也不会让他们有喘息的机会。
“长老，那人族太过于自大，或许已经死在古族手中了。” 牧龙天不屑的说道。
“恩？ 怎么回事？” 烛龙疑惑的问道。
“长老，那人族将古族斩杀后，便向着绝望城而去，说是要去斩杀绝望侯。”
不管怎么说，这人也是救了自己族人的救命恩人，如果就这样白白死去的话，倒是让人惋惜了。
“这人族太自大了，绝望侯掌控绝望城千年之久，根深蒂固，就算是我们六大宗门倾尽全力，也不敢说能将绝望侯斩杀，也不知道他有何自信，敢说出这样的话。” 龙月儿说道。
“罢了，罢了，都各自准备，等会出发，这一次我们要在绝望侯不在绝望城之际，将大千种族生灵全部救出来。” 烛龙叹息一声，最终摆手说道。
他是不会相信，一个人族能够灭掉绝望侯的，因为绝望侯的恐怖，他心中有数，甚至有一件事情他也没有说出来。
那便是，那一次的大战，他能明显的感觉到，绝望侯是在戏耍自己，根本无心要将自己斩杀，不然恐怕自己也不会站在这里了。
“是……。”
……。
林凡一路前行，心中也是想着一些事情。
这一次去绝望城，危险肯定是有的，应该会是一场恶战，不过他们想要杀死自己，那是绝对不可能的。
《亘古不灭》庇护自身，滴血重生可保自己不死，就算遇到真正的强者，无路可退之时，天地熔炉也能将自己保护的好好的。
就是那最坏的打算，也就是躲在天地熔炉之中，炼化自身，最终在杀出来。
想到这里，林凡感觉一切都已经稳稳的了。
翻车将是万劫不复啊。 古圣界八大区域，自己还窝在一个区域的一角，连一个小BOSS都没推掉，这说出去，倒是让人有些瞧不起了。
“人族，站住。”
“哈哈，没想到巡逻竟然遇到一个落单的人族，果真是太幸运了。”
古族巡逻小队，看到独自一人的林凡，也是露出了兴奋之色。 林凡低着头，托着下巴，微微一抬手，那古族巡逻小队，瞬间毙命。
对于这些蝼蚁，林凡根本没有放在心上，也不想这些蝼蚁打扰了自己思考时间。
……。
绝望城。
啪！
“啊……。” 一阵阵惨叫声从各处传来，那些大千种族生灵一个个被关押在牢笼之内，光天化日之下，饱受折磨。
绝望，深深的绝望。
他们对未来已经失去了所有信心，在这惨无人道的地方，无人回来救他们。
“这里不是天堂，我恨啊……。” 一名飞升者凄厉的惨叫着。
他原本以为自己修炼到巅峰，就会飞升到天堂之中，但是来了之后才发现，这里根本就是地狱，一个没有任何希望的地狱。
“谁来救救我，救救我……。” 一名角族，浑身是血，凄惨的叫着。
“桀桀……。”
“哈哈……。”
而伴随这些惨叫声的便是古族的狂笑声，折磨这些大千种族生灵，对于古族来说，是多么兴奋的事情。
“救你们？ 进了绝望城，你们便再无希望，无人能够救你们。”
“绝望吧，在无尽的绝望之中死去吧。”
“哈哈……。”
……。
轰！
就在这时地动山摇，一声巨响猛的响起。
一道声音，传遍虚空，那些被折磨的大千种族生灵听到这声音，一个个咆哮了起来。
这一刻，大千种族们心中涌起了无限的希望。
“有一个人族杀了过来。” 一名古族吼道。
“哈哈，一个人族，竟然只有一人，哈哈……。” 那些正在折磨大千种族生灵们的古族，听到这话一个个狂笑了起来，仿佛是听到了世间最为搞笑的事情。
“怎么会这样。”

Chapter 526: Singlehandedly
In a hidden cave somewhere, a bunch of protective formations were engaged. These protective formations could hide the aura of the cave, as well as bewitch any living being that came close, keeping the place in a state of stealth.
At this moment, a group of beings from the thousands of races out were hidden within this cave. They were dressed differently in a few different groups.
Dragon race, Horn race, Wings race, Giant race, et cetera…
After settling down his tribesmen, Xiesheng came over with his bunch of seniors.
The scale of operation this time round was massive. Six major sects had gathered tens of thousands of disciples to head forth towards Despair City in order to rescue their fellow comrades trapped within that place.
They had received news that the Marquis of Despair wasn't in the city right now. They had their own suspicions at the start as well towards the credibility of this news. However, upon further inspection, they had affirmed that this was a legitimate piece of news.
The Marquis of Despair was someone who would never leave the Despair City. Now that he had done so, this was practically a once in a lifetime opportunity.
"Seniors, do you guys think that the rescue operation this time around would be successful? Can we truly overthrow the Despair City?" Xiesheng was filled with hope as he looked around at the sheer number of people gathered. However, the thought of having to go against the notoriously horrifying the Marquis of Despair was still giving him the shivers.
"That goes without saying. Six major sects with tens of thousands of disciples! Furthermore, we've got thirty Elders here of desolate celestial cultivation state. This is a really formidable force that's gathered. Even if the Marquis of Despair were around, this wouldn't be a completely hopeless operation. However, in order to minimize casualties, choosing to strike when the Marquis of Despair isn't around is the best chance we could ever hope for." Mu Longtian replied.
"This time around, Elder Dulong is making his appearance personally. There's nothing that's impossible with that." Long Yue'er continued.
"That's right. Elder Dulong is a powerful being who had duelled the Marquis of Despair for an entire day and night in the past. With the presence of such a powerful and experience elderly being, there is nothing that's impossible." Xiesheng's heart heaved a huge sigh of relief with that.
"Xiesheng, how are your tribesmen doing?" Suddenly, a stern voice boomed across from the distance.
A middle aged man walked over briskly. Every single step he took seemed to be filled with a deep, mysterious power, as he appeared before all of them in an instant.
This middle aged man was evidently trained in a set of unparalleled skills; and to an extremely high level with that.
"Elder Dulong!" Everyone cusped their fists and greeted with respect. Even the haughty Mu Tianlong's face was filled with nothing but admiration right now.
"Everything has been settled! The moment I arrived, I didn't not manage to engage the ancient race beings in a duel. All of them had been slain by a single man from the Human race." Xiesheng reported the truth.
"Human race?" The moment Dulong heard this, a cryptic look appeared on his face, as though he was really interested in this Human.
"The Human race had gone under the radar for around 10,000 years now. To think that a single human would appear here. Could this man have ascended from the Lower World of the Humans?" Dulong was quite curious.
Right now in the Ancient Saint World, it was easy to bump into beings of so many races. However, it would take more than a miracle to bump into a single human being.
The only two known supreme existences of the Human race had long entered seclusion, rescinding their involvement in the affairs of the Ancient Saint World.
This was an open secret in the Ancient Saint World. Some of the beings of the thousands of races viewed these two as mere cowards who have gone into hiding.
However, Dulong did not think the same. He knew that the only reason they would even have the confidence to retaliate and stand up for themselves was because of the five powerful beings from the Human race who had killed the Ancient One, one of the eight utmost beings of the ancient race.
"Elder, that human was nothing but an egomaniac. He may have already died in the hands of the ancient race." Mu Tianlong scoffed in disdain.
"Hmm? What's going on?" Dulong asked in puzzlement.
"Elder, after slaying those beings of the ancient race, that human headed straight towards Despair City, claiming that he was gunning for the Marquis of Despair's life." Xiesheng replied worriedly.
No matter what, that human was a benefactor of his tribe. If he were to die off just like that, it would be a real pity.
"That human was far too arrogant. The Marquis of Despair has controlled the Despair City for thousands of years, with his foundation embedded deeply. Even the six of us major sects would have to go full force in order to deal with him, let alone harbour any thoughts of killing him. All he has is some dumb guts." Long Yue'er carried on.
"Forget it, forget it. Everyone, head off to prepare. We'll leave in a bit. This time around, we've got to seize the opportunity when the Marquis of Despair isn't around to rescue everyone out of the Despair City." Dulong sighed for a moment before waving his hand dismissively.
He couldn't bring himself to believe that a single human could take down the Marquis of Despair. After all, he was the clearest about the Marquis of Despair's true strength. Furthermore, there was a secret that he would never ever speak of.
In his great battle with the Marquis of Despair back then, he could sense that the Marquis of Despair was just toying around with him. If the other party truly had the intentions of killing him, there was no way he would be standing here alive right now.
"Yes…!"
...
Heading on his way, Lin Fan's mind was filled with some thoughts.
There was definitely a risk in his visit to the Despair City this time around. The battle might be fierce, but it was definitely impossible for them to kill him.
With Eternal Immortality protecting his body and Rebirth through Blood ensuring his revival, it was all good. Furthermore, even if he were to meet with a fearsome foe with nowhere to run, he could retreat within the Heaven and Earth Smelt safely.
Of course, that was the worst-case scenario, for him to hide in the Heaven and Earth Smelt till he could get strong enough to burst out of it.
Failing this would mean an eternal life of damnation for Lin Fan.
After all, there were eight districts of the Ancient Saint World. To think that he was only stuck in a small corner in one of the districts! If he couldn't even get rid of this small BOSS, how could he lift his head up high in the world from here on forth?
"Human there! Hold up!"
"HAHA! To think that we would bump into a lone human! What luck!"
A small patrol squad of the ancient race let out a look of excitement upon catching sight of the lone Lin Fan. Lin Fan lowered his head and rubbed his chin. Raising his palm gently, he exterminated this patrol squad instantly.
Ants like these weren't enough to bother Lin Fan. He did not want to let such things disturb his train of thoughts.
...
PSCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
'ARGH…!'
A series of wails rang out from all directions. One by one, beings of the thousands of races were locked up in cages and subjected to endless torture under broad daylight.
Despair... Endless despair.
All of them had lost all hope for their future. In this cruel and tormentuous place, no one would ever come to save them.
"THIS ISN'T THE HEAVEN I WAS PROMISED. I HATE THIS PLACE…!" A being who had ascended cried out tragically.
He had thought that he would be welcomed into a land of Heaven upon training to the peak of his world. However, it was Hell that he had discovered upon entering this place, a hopeless Hell of despair.
"IS THERE ANYONE WHO CAN SAVE ME…? ANYONE PLEASE…!" A being from the Horn race cried out with blood all over his body.
"HEHE…"
"HAHAHAHAHA…"
Accompanying these wails was the maniacal laughter of the ancient race. Torturing these beings from the thousands of races out there was something too enjoyable for these ancient race beings.
"SAVE YOU? After entering the Despair City, there is no longer any more hope of aid for you!"
"Despair! DIE IN THE DEPTHS OF DESPAIR!"
"HAHAHA…!"
…
BOOM!
Suddenly, the ground shook as a gigantic explosion rang out.
"Yours Truly is Lin Fan of the Human race! Today, I shall take down the Despair City!" A voice permeated through the entire sky of the Despair City.
The moment the beings of the thousands of races out there heard this, they started howling.
"SOMEONE FROM THE HUMAN RACE HAS ARRIVED!" One of the ancient race beings hollered out.
"HAHAHA! A SINGLE HUMAN? HE CAME HERE SINGLEHANDEDLY? HAHAHA…!" Some of the ancient race beings who were in charge of tormenting the beings of the thousands of races began to burst out into laughter at these words, as though they had just heard the biggest joke in the entire world.
A single person? What use could that be?

Right now, I only want to know how long it'll take before you can go through.”\n“At least a day.”\n“One day?!” Ardak’s thunderous roar covered an area of ten kilometers. Several of the weakest vampire experts simply couldn’t withstand the pressure of the duke’s wrath. They were immediately knocked unconscious and fell from the sky.\nArdak didn’t even spare those falling vampires a glance. “One day is enough for those human bugs to crawl into another warzone! You have one hour! You must open a passage within one hour!”\n“But, we need the city intact.”\n“Intact? Whose stupid order is that?”\nThe old marquis replied, “It’s Her Majesty’s will.”\nArdak suddenly fell silent. Without any prefixes, this “Her Majesty” spoken of by the vampires could mean only one person—the Queen of the Night, Lilith.\nMoments later, Ardak said coldly, “I heard your queen has encountered an accident and is soon going into a deep slumber. Do you think her orders can control me at such a time?”\nThe old marquis was extremely unyielding in this matter. “Her Majesty has not yet gone into a deep slumber. Additionally, no matter what state she’s in, the Queen of the Night is not someone you can comment on so casually.”\nThe arachne duke snorted but didn’t continue making things difficult for the old man. He might perhaps be able to criticize Lilith a bit if he could step into the monarch realm—but that was the extent of it. After all, the arachne weren’t demonkin. Even that person on the sacred mountain of the Evernight Council wouldn’t easily get into a conflict with the Queen of the Night.\nSeeing the situation at hand, Ardak realized that he couldn’t easily command this hundred-thousand-strong army led mostly by vampires. Going back to the main camp for a transfer of authority would also take the greater part of the day—the enemy would’ve escaped by that time.\n“Who’s in charge of the imperial forces?” Ardak inquired.\nThe old marquis explained without hiding anything, “The commander is the General of Ambitious Might, Zhang Junshu, and the overseer should be Duke Wei.”\nThere was suddenly a fluctuation in Ardak’s voice. “Duke Wei? He’s also here?”\nThe old marquis replied, “Yes, Duke Wei intercepted us personally during our last assault. That was how the imperial army managed to immolate the entire city. I’ve fought him before, so I can’t be mistaken.”\nArdak remained silent for a while. Then, he broke into a laugh which shook several more vampires out of the air. “Good, very good! I’ll have to see how much that brat has grown in these years!”\nA person appeared in front of the vampire marquis amidst the laughter. Three meters tall and clad in iron-grey robes, the duke looked down on all the vampires like a giant.\nThere were several rings on the three fingers of his left hand, and the egg-sized gems on them were extremely dazzling. The gazes of several vampires fell uncontrollably onto the rings, soon falling deeper and deeper—it was almost as though their souls were being drawn in.\nThe old marquis quickly expanded his blood energy and engulfed the dazed subordinates. “Do not look at the grand duke’s hand!”\nArdak finally looked straight at the old marquis. “You’re old but still quite good.”\nThe creases on the latter’s face grew deeper as he said with a wry smile, “Thank you for the praise.”\nArdak gazed in the direction where the imperial forces had escaped. He let out a sudden howl and flew into the distance in due haste, all the while accompanied by thunderous rumbles.\nIn the blink of an eye, Ardak’s body expanded to become a giant ten-meter spider with a metallic glow flickering around his body.\nThe tips of his eight limbs shot out countless threads which weaved together to form a silk road over the burning Dusk City. Ardak’s massive spider body flickered continuously, each flash taking him a thousand meters away. In mere moments, he had disappeared at the extremes of one’s vision.\nOnly at this point did the silk road gradually disperse.\nA shrill voice suddenly rang out from the warship, “Grand Duke, how about the warship?!”\nArdak’s response floated over from the horizon. “Too slow. Just follow me at your own pace!”\nThe massive warship climbed slowly and merged into the clouds. Then, it traversed the surging flames and chased after Ardak’s last known direction.\nA count nearby spoke after the arachne grand duke’s airship had vanished from their view. “A single ship chasing after them? The humans are probably well-prepared for this. Their airship fleet isn’t that weak.”\nThe marquis’ expression remained unchanged. “His Excellency Ardak has great accumulations, how can we compare to him? He can build another after losing his ride, but it’ll take us a couple of decades to recover from the loss of our fleet.”\nThat count revealed a sinister smile. The arachne duke’s ship naturally wasn’t on the same level as ordinary warships, especially since it was much larger than standard vessels. The cost of that single ship was equal to half a vampire fleet.\nDuke Wei finally played the chess piece he had been mulling over and ended the game. Then, he said calmly, “An old friend is coming. I’ll go meet him.”\nThe latter stroked his beard and said, “Junshu, none of us dukes got our titles through inheritance. You have to remember that killing on the battlefield is the role of our generation.”\nDuke Wei raised his hand and said, “Speak no more. Besides, it’s not as if I’ll die without a doubt. Don’t diminish the might of an imperial soldier in front of all our troops.”\nWith that, Duke Wei brushed his sleeves and rose into the air, soon appearing in the sky outside of the airship. His elegant figure seemed to be walking calmly through the air, but soon he had disappeared over the horizon.\nThe dense clouds in the sky hung lower and lower until it was almost pressing onto the airship. Zhang Junshu remained silent, seemingly lost in contemplation.\nMoments later, a clap of thunder resounded over the horizon. The distant explosion arrived in the blink of an eye, flooding the atmosphere with the rumble of rolling thunder. No other sound could prevail! Many of the weaker soldiers began seeing stars. Their limbs went limb, and some of them almost fell off the military transports.\nFortunately, there were old veterans assigned to each truck who were still able to move despite the sudden thunder. These men quickly grabbed those who were about to fall and pulled them back into the car at the nick of time.\nAfter the thunder had passed, even the earth began to tremble and wind speeds increased several-fold. The airstream kicked up sand and gravel which struck vehicles and passengers alike. The small stones would even leave red spots after striking one’s skin.\nThe airship fleet swayed wildly in the turbulence. Some of the smaller ones were tossed about like a raft in the raging sea, looking as if they would capsize at any moment. Even the largest cargo ships could hardly stabilize themselves amidst the constant rocking.\nFortunately, the Zhang clan forces were all elites, and the captains were all true experts in their trade. They didn’t panic even under such disastrous conditions and did their all to control the airship’s balance.\nZhang Junshu issued an immediate order after seeing that the situation wasn’t quite right. The smaller airships broke away from the fleet and rose rapidly into the air, allowing them greater space to maneuver.\nThe gale in the skies never stopped, and the tremors in the earth came wave after wave, flipping numerous trucks into the air.\nAt such a time, even the old rank four veterans could only grab onto the carriage to avoid being thrown out of the car. Once outside, they would be swept up by the hurricane-like airflow and flung away.\nA yellowish glow began flickering from the central airship at this point. Numerous runes appeared to form the faint outline of a barrier which quickly enveloped the entire warship, isolating it from the devastating winds.\nZhang Junshu gazed at the distant skies, his expression as dark as the gloomy skies.\nThose at the bridge had gone through hundreds of battle, but even so, they couldn’t help but become apprehensive after seeing the earth-shattering developments. A major general asked, “General, this… could it be…”\nZhang Junshu sighed deeply. “You’re right, the duke is already fighting the enemy.”\nEveryone’s expression changed.\nThose who could stand beside Zhang Junshu at this moment were all important generals of the Zhang clan and the empire. All of them had experienced fighting in great wars, and most of them had seen battles between divine champions. They were even more astonished because Duke Wei had only taken action a couple of times despite overseeing the army for so long. One had to know that even the duke’s all-out attack probably wouldn’t produce such power.\nIf this world-shaking change wasn’t caused by Duke Wei, it was naturally due to the enemy. From this, one could guess that Duke Wei wasn’t just at a disadvantage—he was very likely in a precarious situation.\nZhang Junshu’s clenched fist relaxed and then tightened once more with crackling sounds.\nOrdinary soldiers were useless in a battle between divine champions. Just the shockwave from the impact was enough to kill an entire squad, not to mention those below the champion rank couldn't even approach once an expert’s domain had been deployed.\nEven if the entire army were to go forth and provide assistance, the result would be a close victory at best. The duke might be able to escape, but it would be game over once all the experts in the Zhang clan private army had fallen. This elite private army of a hundred thousand elites was half under Zhang Junshu’s command. At present, there was less than twenty thousand of them remaining.\nThese people were the final batch. If they could be brought back and new soldiers were added to the framework, another elite army could be built in half a year. But there would be nothing left if they were all used up here.\nDuke Wei would rather fight Ardak alone without Zhang Junshu’s assistance because he knew that this squad and its experts were the foundation of the Zhang clan. Once lost, the damage would be significant. Moreover, if the duke were to fall here while protecting the Zhang clan’s lifeline, the entire Greensun Zhang Clan and perhaps even Prince Greensun himself would do their utmost to protect Duke Wei’s descendants.\nThis was a difficult decision to make, but that was exactly Duke Wei’s choice.\nZhang Junshu banged his fist hard on the table and roared, “Go and help the brothers on the ground. We must make haste! The faster we leave, the sooner the duke can escape the battlefield!”\nAll the generals responded and charged out. It was just that the phenomena in the distance pressured heavily upon everyone’s hearts. This was a clash between two absolute powers, and Duke Wei was the one to intercept proactively. The chances of his escape were slim at best.\nIt was at this time that a colonel charged into the bridge. “The peripheral airships have discovered an unidentified vessel approaching. It’s suspected to be the warship of the Arachne Grand Duke Ardak!”"

章一六六
蛛魔大公爵不耐烦地打断了老侯爵，道：“不管你有什么困难，现在我只要知道一件事，还有多久可以过去？”
“至少还需要一天的时间。”
阿尔达克的咆哮如同雷鸣，覆盖了方圆数十公里，数名实力最弱的血族根本承受不住蛛魔大公爵震怒的威压，直接昏了过去，笔直从空中栽落。
阿尔达克看都没看掉落的血族，继续咆哮：“一天的时间，足够那些人类爬虫逃进他们另一个战区了！ 你只有一个小时！
“完整的城市？
这是谁的愚蠢命令？”
老侯爵道：“这是陛下的意思。”
阿克达克忽然沉默。 在血族口中，没加任何前缀的陛下只有一位，那就是夜之女王，莉莉丝。
片刻之后，阿尔达克才冷冷道：“我听说，你们的女王陛下出了些意外，刚从虚空深处回来，眼看又要沉眠。 你们认为在这种时候，她的命令还能管得到我吗？”
但在这件事上，老侯爵却是极为硬气，说：“陛下现在可还没有沉眠。 另外，陛下无论是什么状态，都不是你能够擅自议论的。”
也许等他踏入君王，才能获得稍稍非议几句夜之女王的资格，但也仅限于此而已。 蛛魔毕竟不是魔裔，即使永夜议会圣山之上的那一位，也不会愿意轻易和夜之女王发生冲突。
眼见这种情况，阿尔达克知道自己很难指挥得动这以血族为首的十万黑暗大军，如果回大本营申请调整指挥权限，一来一回怎么也要大半天时间，那时敌人早就跑远了。
“帝国那边都有些什么人？”
老侯爵没有隐瞒，道：“指挥是威远大将军张钧恕，镇军的应该是卫国公。”
阿尔达克的声音忽然起了波动：“卫国公？ 他也在？”
老侯爵道：“是，在我们最后一次进攻时，卫国公亲自出手将我们拦下，这才被帝**将焚城大火成功燃起。 我以前和他交过手，不会看错。”
阿尔达克沉默片刻，忽然哈哈大笑，又将几名血族从空中震落：“好，好，非常好！ 就让我看看，那个小家伙这些年又长进了多少！”
大笑声中，血族老侯爵面前突然多出了一个人，身披铁灰色长袍，高近三米，宛若巨人般俯视着一众血族。
他左手三指上戴着数枚戒指，如同鸽蛋大小的宝石散发出莹莹光芒，极是醒目。 几名血族的目光不受控制地落在那些戒指上，随即就被陷住，渐渐深入，如同整个灵魂都要被吸纳进去。
老侯爵血气猛然扩张，将几名表情呆滞的下属包裹起来，喝道：“不要看大公的手！”
阿尔达克终于正眼看了老侯爵一眼，说：“你虽然老了，但还有点用。”
老侯爵脸上的皱纹显得更加深了，苦笑道：“多谢大公夸奖。”
阿尔达克望着帝**远去的方向，忽然仰天长啸，轰轰隆隆雷霆炸响，飞快地传向远方。
阿尔达克身躯忽然膨胀，转眼间就变成一头高达十余米，周身闪耀着金属光泽的巨大蜘蛛！
八根节足末端各自射出无数丝线，在空中编织出一道丝网之路，瞬间跨越燃烧的黄昏之城上空，直通前方。 阿尔达克巨大的蛛躯连续闪烁，每一下闪烁，就会出现在千米之外，转眼之间消失在视线尽头。
而这时，空中丝路才开始徐徐消散。
战舰内突然响起一个尖锐细利的声音：“大公，战舰！”
天际传来阿尔达克的回答：“你们太慢，自己跟上来吧！”
庞大战舰缓慢爬升，没入云端，越过黄昏之城的冲天火焰，向着阿尔达克消失的方向追去。
似乎人族那边早有准备，浮空舰队实力不弱的样子。” 老侯爵神色不变，淡淡地道：“阿尔达克阁下积累深厚，哪是我们可比。
损失一艘座舰，再造就是了。 我们的舰队损失，可是需要几十年才能补回来。” 那名伯爵露出一个阴恻恻笑容。
蛛魔大公爵的座舰，岂可与普通血族战舰相提并论，尤其是蛛魔大公爵的座舰比标准战列舰还要庞大，一艘造价就抵得上大半支血族标准舰队。
张阀中军，卫国公沉吟已久的一子终于落下，了结这盘残局，然后平静地道：“有个老朋友过来了，我去会一会他。”
卫国公抚须微笑，道：“钧恕，别忘了我们这几个国公可都不是来自世袭荫庇，阵上决杀，正是我辈本分。”
“国公爷”张钧恕还待再劝。 卫国公一摆手，道：“不用多说，何况本公此去也不见得必死无疑。 不要在阵前坠了我帝**人的威风。”
说罢，卫国公袍袖一拂，腾空而起，下一刻就出现在船舱外的虚空中。 他身影翩翩，仿佛在平地上从容行走，转眼间就消失在天际。
天空中的云越来越浓，越来越低垂，甚至快要压到低飞的浮空战舰顶上。 张钧恕静立不动，仿佛在等待着什么。
片刻之后，地平线上忽然响起一声霹雳，遥远隐约的隆隆轰响瞬息来到跟前，一时之间，这方天地充斥着滚滚雷音，再无其它声响！ 许多实力不足的战士只觉得头晕眼花，四肢不受控制，一头从运兵卡车上栽了下去。
好在每辆卡车上都专门安排了久经沙场的老兵带队，雷音虽然来得突然，他们依然能够勉强保持行动，一把抓住摇摇欲坠的人，堪堪重新拉回车厢。
然而雷音过后，大地也开始不断震动，空中的风更是大了不知道多少倍，越来越强烈的气流中沙石呼啸纷飞，噼噼啪啪地打在车厢上，人身上。
一颗颗小石子打在裸露在外的肌肤上，立刻就会留下点点红印。 浮空舰队在狂风中剧烈摇晃，一些小型艇舰更是上下起伏，如怒海中的孤舟，时刻都有可能倾覆。 即使体型最大的载重舰，也不住摇晃，艰难地维持着空中队型。
好在张阀此次精锐尽出，操舰的都是真正好手，哪怕是在这天灾般的环境下，也毫不慌乱，竭尽全力控制着舰体平衡。
张钧恕眼见情况不对，即刻下令，所有小型舰都脱离编队，全速升空，以便有更大回旋空间。
空中狂风不息，大地涌动更是一波接着一波，许多载重卡车都被掀到了空中！
在这种时刻，哪怕是三四级的老兵，都只能紧紧抓住车厢，以求自己不会被掀飞出去。 一旦脱手，就会被这仿佛龙卷风般的气流吹上天，不知抛向何处。
中央旗舰通体闪耀起微黄光芒，数道符文构成的光带拉出一道淡淡光罩，将整艘战舰保护在内，隔绝了肆虐的狂风。
张钧恕望着阴沉如墨的远方天空，脸色也如天色一般黑漆漆的。
指挥舱内众将都是身经百战，可是看到如此天地惊变，也禁不住动容。
张钧恕重重吐口浊气，沉声道：“没错，是国公爷已经和敌人动上手了。”
众将脸色随即大变。
此刻能够站在张钧恕身边的，都是张阀重将，也是帝国重将，每个人都有参加过国战的经历。 众将大多见过神将级战斗，而且卫国公镇军已久，此前亦有数次出手，所以诸人更觉惊心动魄。
要知道，卫国公即使全力出手，也没有如此威势。 如果这天地异动不是卫国公，那自然就是追来的敌人了。 仅由此看来。
张钧恕手握紧又放开，放开后再握紧，骨节发出噼啪微响。
神将级别的战斗，普通军队毫无用处，仅仅是原力对冲的爆炸余波，就能灭杀一支方队。 更不用说强者们领域一旦张开，战将以下完全无法靠近。
哪怕卫国公能够脱身，可张阀这支私军强者尽失，就算完了。 此战张阀十万精锐私军，有一半在张钧恕麾下，如今踏上归途的只剩下不到两万。
这两万人是最后的骨血，只要能够把他们带回去，以他们为框架补充新兵，用不了半年时间，就能再得一支精锐大军。 可若是在这一仗里拼光了，那就什么都没有了。
卫国公宁肯只身迎战蛛魔大公爵阿尔达克也不让张钧恕助战，就是知道这支部队，以及这支部队中的强者，是张阀根基所在，一旦有损，即会损伤根本。 而如若此战卫国公殉难，念在这份保全了张阀有生力量的情份上，青阳张氏乃至青阳王张伯谦都会倾力维护卫国公的后人。
这是让人为难的选择，但也是卫国公的选择。
砰的一声，张钧恕重重一拳砸在指挥台上，吼道：“都去帮下面的弟兄们，快点赶路！ 我们走得越快，国公爷就能够越早脱离战场！”
诸将轰然应令，就向外冲去。 只是远方的天地异象如铅块沉沉压在每个人心头，在绝对的力量差异面前，卫国公又是主动迎战，再想脱离，恐怕希望渺茫。
就在这时，一名上校冲进指挥舱，叫道：“外围浮空舰发现有不明浮空舰接近，疑似蛛魔大公阿尔达克的座舰！”

[V6C166 – Sorrow of a Silent Parting]
The impatient arachne duke cut the old marquis short. “I don’t care what difficulties you have. Right now, I only want to know how long it'll take before you can go through.”
“At least a day.”
“One day?!” Ardak’s thunderous roar covered an area of ten kilometers. Several of the weakest vampire experts simply couldn’t withstand the pressure of the duke’s wrath. They were immediately knocked unconscious and fell from the sky.
Ardak didn’t even spare those falling vampires a glance. “One day is enough for those human bugs to crawl into another warzone! You have one hour! You must open a passage within one hour!”
“But, we need the city intact.”
“Intact? Whose stupid order is that?”
The old marquis replied, “It’s Her Majesty’s will.”
Ardak suddenly fell silent. Without any prefixes, this “Her Majesty” spoken of by the vampires could mean only one person—the Queen of the Night, Lilith.
Moments later, Ardak said coldly, “I heard your queen has encountered an accident and is soon going into a deep slumber. Do you think her orders can control me at such a time?”
The old marquis was extremely unyielding in this matter. “Her Majesty has not yet gone into a deep slumber. Additionally, no matter what state she’s in, the Queen of the Night is not someone you can comment on so casually.”
The arachne duke snorted but didn’t continue making things difficult for the old man. He might perhaps be able to criticize Lilith a bit if he could step into the monarch realm—but that was the extent of it. After all, the arachne weren’t demonkin. Even that person on the sacred mountain of the Evernight Council wouldn’t easily get into a conflict with the Queen of the Night.
Seeing the situation at hand, Ardak realized that he couldn’t easily command this hundred-thousand-strong army led mostly by vampires. Going back to the main camp for a transfer of authority would also take the greater part of the day—the enemy would’ve escaped by that time.
“Who’s in charge of the imperial forces?” Ardak inquired.
The old marquis explained without hiding anything, “The commander is the General of Ambitious Might, Zhang Junshu, and the overseer should be Duke Wei.”
There was suddenly a fluctuation in Ardak’s voice. “Duke Wei? He’s also here?”
The old marquis replied, “Yes, Duke Wei intercepted us personally during our last assault. That was how the imperial army managed to immolate the entire city. I’ve fought him before, so I can’t be mistaken.”
Ardak remained silent for a while. Then, he broke into a laugh which shook several more vampires out of the air. “Good, very good! I’ll have to see how much that brat has grown in these years!”
A person appeared in front of the vampire marquis amidst the laughter. Three meters tall and clad in iron-grey robes, the duke looked down on all the vampires like a giant.
There were several rings on the three fingers of his left hand, and the egg-sized gems on them were extremely dazzling. The gazes of several vampires fell uncontrollably onto the rings, soon falling deeper and deeper—it was almost as though their souls were being drawn in.
The old marquis quickly expanded his blood energy and engulfed the dazed subordinates. “Do not look at the grand duke’s hand!”
Ardak finally looked straight at the old marquis. “You’re old but still quite good.”
The creases on the latter’s face grew deeper as he said with a wry smile, “Thank you for the praise.”
Ardak gazed in the direction where the imperial forces had escaped. He let out a sudden howl and flew into the distance in due haste, all the while accompanied by thunderous rumbles.
In the blink of an eye, Ardak’s body expanded to become a giant ten-meter spider with a metallic glow flickering around his body.
The tips of his eight limbs shot out countless threads which weaved together to form a silk road over the burning Dusk City. Ardak’s massive spider body flickered continuously, each flash taking him a thousand meters away. In mere moments, he had disappeared at the extremes of one’s vision.
Only at this point did the silk road gradually disperse.
A shrill voice suddenly rang out from the warship, “Grand Duke, how about the warship?!”
Ardak’s response floated over from the horizon. “Too slow. Just follow me at your own pace!”
The massive warship climbed slowly and merged into the clouds. Then, it traversed the surging flames and chased after Ardak’s last known direction.
A count nearby spoke after the arachne grand duke’s airship had vanished from their view. “A single ship chasing after them? The humans are probably well-prepared for this. Their airship fleet isn’t that weak.”
The marquis’ expression remained unchanged. “His Excellency Ardak has great accumulations, how can we compare to him? He can build another after losing his ride, but it’ll take us a couple of decades to recover from the loss of our fleet.”
That count revealed a sinister smile. The arachne duke’s ship naturally wasn’t on the same level as ordinary warships, especially since it was much larger than standard vessels. The cost of that single ship was equal to half a vampire fleet.
Duke Wei finally played the chess piece he had been mulling over and ended the game. Then, he said calmly, “An old friend is coming. I’ll go meet him.”
The latter stroked his beard and said, “Junshu, none of us dukes got our titles through inheritance. You have to remember that killing on the battlefield is the role of our generation.”
Duke Wei raised his hand and said, “Speak no more. Besides, it’s not as if I’ll die without a doubt. Don’t diminish the might of an imperial soldier in front of all our troops.”
With that, Duke Wei brushed his sleeves and rose into the air, soon appearing in the sky outside of the airship. His elegant figure seemed to be walking calmly through the air, but soon he had disappeared over the horizon.
The dense clouds in the sky hung lower and lower until it was almost pressing onto the airship. Zhang Junshu remained silent, seemingly lost in contemplation.
Moments later, a clap of thunder resounded over the horizon. The distant explosion arrived in the blink of an eye, flooding the atmosphere with the rumble of rolling thunder. No other sound could prevail! Many of the weaker soldiers began seeing stars. Their limbs went limb, and some of them almost fell off the military transports.
Fortunately, there were old veterans assigned to each truck who were still able to move despite the sudden thunder. These men quickly grabbed those who were about to fall and pulled them back into the car at the nick of time.
After the thunder had passed, even the earth began to tremble and wind speeds increased several-fold. The airstream kicked up sand and gravel which struck vehicles and passengers alike. The small stones would even leave red spots after striking one’s skin.
The airship fleet swayed wildly in the turbulence. Some of the smaller ones were tossed about like a raft in the raging sea, looking as if they would capsize at any moment. Even the largest cargo ships could hardly stabilize themselves amidst the constant rocking.
Fortunately, the Zhang clan forces were all elites, and the captains were all true experts in their trade. They didn’t panic even under such disastrous conditions and did their all to control the airship’s balance.
Zhang Junshu issued an immediate order after seeing that the situation wasn’t quite right. The smaller airships broke away from the fleet and rose rapidly into the air, allowing them greater space to maneuver.
The gale in the skies never stopped, and the tremors in the earth came wave after wave, flipping numerous trucks into the air.
At such a time, even the old rank four veterans could only grab onto the carriage to avoid being thrown out of the car. Once outside, they would be swept up by the hurricane-like airflow and flung away.
A yellowish glow began flickering from the central airship at this point. Numerous runes appeared to form the faint outline of a barrier which quickly enveloped the entire warship, isolating it from the devastating winds.
Zhang Junshu gazed at the distant skies, his expression as dark as the gloomy skies.
Those at the bridge had gone through hundreds of battle, but even so, they couldn’t help but become apprehensive after seeing the earth-shattering developments. A major general asked, “General, this… could it be…”
Zhang Junshu sighed deeply. “You’re right, the duke is already fighting the enemy.”
Everyone’s expression changed.
Those who could stand beside Zhang Junshu at this moment were all important generals of the Zhang clan and the empire. All of them had experienced fighting in great wars, and most of them had seen battles between divine champions. They were even more astonished because Duke Wei had only taken action a couple of times despite overseeing the army for so long. One had to know that even the duke’s all-out attack probably wouldn’t produce such power.
If this world-shaking change wasn’t caused by Duke Wei, it was naturally due to the enemy. From this, one could guess that Duke Wei wasn’t just at a disadvantage—he was very likely in a precarious situation.
Zhang Junshu’s clenched fist relaxed and then tightened once more with crackling sounds.
Ordinary soldiers were useless in a battle between divine champions. Just the shockwave from the impact was enough to kill an entire squad, not to mention those below the champion rank couldn't even approach once an expert’s domain had been deployed.
Even if the entire army were to go forth and provide assistance, the result would be a close victory at best. The duke might be able to escape, but it would be game over once all the experts in the Zhang clan private army had fallen. This elite private army of a hundred thousand elites was half under Zhang Junshu’s command. At present, there was less than twenty thousand of them remaining.
These people were the final batch. If they could be brought back and new soldiers were added to the framework, another elite army could be built in half a year. But there would be nothing left if they were all used up here.
Duke Wei would rather fight Ardak alone without Zhang Junshu’s assistance because he knew that this squad and its experts were the foundation of the Zhang clan. Once lost, the damage would be significant. Moreover, if the duke were to fall here while protecting the Zhang clan’s lifeline, the entire Greensun Zhang Clan and perhaps even Prince Greensun himself would do their utmost to protect Duke Wei’s descendants.
This was a difficult decision to make, but that was exactly Duke Wei’s choice.
Zhang Junshu banged his fist hard on the table and roared, “Go and help the brothers on the ground. We must make haste! The faster we leave, the sooner the duke can escape the battlefield!”
All the generals responded and charged out. It was just that the phenomena in the distance pressured heavily upon everyone’s hearts. This was a clash between two absolute powers, and Duke Wei was the one to intercept proactively. The chances of his escape were slim at best.
It was at this time that a colonel charged into the bridge. “The peripheral airships have discovered an unidentified vessel approaching. It’s suspected to be the warship of the Arachne Grand Duke Ardak!”

"value": "Wang Chong currently knew little about what his subordinates were thinking. The sudden battle between Gao Xianzhi and the Arabs had completely upset his plans, and he had far too many things to take care of, not just something as simple as the Wootz Steel.\nWang Chong turned his head and said, “Cheng Sanyuan, what has Hulayeg said? Has the matter of the Fourth Prince still not been taken care of? I can’t give him any more time on the warhorses. I need his reply soon.”\nHulayeg was at the court of the Western Turkic Khagan in Mount Sanmi, so Wang Chong had given the Fourth Prince over to Cheng Sanyuan to handle.\n“Yes, Lord Marquis. Hulayeg has sent a letter saying that Ishbara Khagan had finished preparations, but there was a sudden incident. The Fourth Prince… we might not be able to hand him over according to the original proposal,” Cheng Sanyuan hesitantly said.\nWang Chong’s brow slightly creased, but then his eyes glimmered and he gave a derisive chuckle.\n“Is it because of the Battle of Talas in the Western Regions?”\nCheng Sanyuan hesitated before lowering his head and giving the true answer. “Yes!”\nQixi was currently in dire need of manpower, and Hulayeg’s report that matters at Mount Sanmi were not proceeding smoothly was clearly ill news.\n“Hmph, it seems like the Turks haven’t gotten used to the fact that when you deal with me, you have to play by the rules. No matter how the Battle of Talas ends up, they won’t get a single chance!”\nCavalry, cavalry… without horses, cavalry could only be infantry!\nIn the past, Wang Chong wouldn’t have minded giving Hulayeg a little more time, but war was imminent. Wang Chong needed many soldiers, increasing the importance of the warhorses. Ishbara Khagan had clearly realized this, so he had changed his mind and chosen to drag out the proceedings.\n“Cheng Sanyuan, I will give you three thousand Wushang Cavalry. Take them and some soldiers from the Qixi Protectorate army, and leave today for the Turkic steppe. Remember, follow the water. Where there’s water, there will be horses, cows, sheep, and Turkic tribes. Livestock can’t stray far from water sources. In the space of three days, I need you to sweep through all the nearby water sources, and in ten days, I need you to utterly vanquish all the Turkic soldiers in the west!”\nWang Chong’s eyes were cold, exuding a terrifying killing intent.\nIn the Battle of Talas, the War God of the Western Regions, Gao Xianzhi, was in a poor situation, besieged by the Arabs. Wang Chong had already predicted that this battle would have an unfavorable effect on his discussions with Ishbara Khagan. There was a high chance that the Western Turks would start to grow hungry and feel that they had a chance.\nWhat Wang Chong wanted to do was crush any opportunities the Turks believed themselves to have, and make them understand that even though there was a battle in the Western Regions, Wang Chong would continue to make Qixi an impregnable fortress.\n“Yes, your subordinate will go!”\nCheng Sanyuan immediately took off. Everyone felt an intense pressure, with requests for reinforcements constantly coming in from Anxi. Gao Xianzhi was known as the lightning-strike general of the Western Regions, the undefeated general, and his army of thirty thousand elites had always ended battles quickly, with few lasting for very long.\nYet more than ten days had passed, and this illustrious Imperial Great General remained besieged at Talas. Even the slowest person, even someone who knew nothing about the Arabs, could tell that Gao Xianzhi was facing an unprecedentedly powerful opponent. Anxi was in dire need, and its hopes had been entrusted to them.\n“Chen Bin!” “Your subordinate is here!”\n“Inform Zhao Jingdian that I only give twenty days. No matter the price, the road between the capital and Qixi must be completed. In addition, I give the task of constructing the cement road from Qixi to Anxi to you. Get in touch with Feng Changqing and get his full cooperation. I only give you twenty-five days to build this road. You can use all the manpower and resources in the City of Steel. If this road is not finished in twenty-five days, everything will be handled according to military law!”\n“Yes, your subordinate will go!”\nChen Bin bowed, leaving without asking a single question. ……\nOrder after order was issued within the hall, setting all of Qixi and Wushang rumbling to life. Gradually, the number of people in the hall dwindled away, and in the end, only the white-clothed and graceful figure was left.\n“What’s wrong?” Xu Qiqin lithely walked over, her voice gentle as she looked at Wang Chong’s silent frown.\nXu Qiqin inspected Wang Chong’s face. It was handsome, bright, yet suffused with a composure and maturity that few of his peers could ever hope to match. His straight and impressive brows that extended to his temples added even more to Wang Chong’s charm. But at this moment, these brows were slightly creased so that they only made him seem more pitiable.\nWushang, Qixi, Anxi… Xu Qiqin knew just how massive was the pressure that weighed on his young shoulders. Everyone treated him as their backbone and believed that he could do everything, but they had completely forgotten that he was just a seventeen-year-old youth.\n“It’s nothing.” Wang Chong waved his hand, his brow still creased in contemplation. “It’s just that our soldiers are far from enough. The pavilion closest to the water enjoys the moon first, and the Arabian Empire is much closer to Talas than we are. Just my five thousand Wushang Cavalry alone are far from enough to alter the course of this battle.”\nTen thousand elite Mamelukes were also bolstered by other heavy cavalry. Given Wang Chong’s understanding of the Arabs and the forces they had currently mobilized, the Arabs had at least two hundred thousand soldiers, a number that would only get larger. The soldiers of Qixi were far from enough. This was a problem that had vexed Wang Chong for some time.\nHe simply had too few chips!\nWhen he thought about this, he couldn’t help but give a long sigh, but then he heard giggling at his ear. Raising his head in astonishment, he saw that Xu Qiqin was covering her mouth and laughing so hard that her petite body was shaking, her face red.\n“I thought that you were worried about something serious, but this is all it was. Leave it to me. I’ll help you handle this. I can guarantee that within a month, I can get you six thousand Wushang Cavalry,” Xu Qiqin confidently said.\n“!!!”\nWang Chong trembled in shock as he stared at Xu Qiqin.\nNo one understood Wushang Village more than he did. These people were extremely xenophobic and did not permit ordinary outsiders entry. Even with the memories from his past life, he had needed to expend a great deal of energy to recruit five thousand Wushang Cavalry. In addition, Wushang Village did not have that many people, and getting five thousand had been so difficult that Wang Chong had not dared to ask for any more.\nBut now, Xu Qiqin was confidently declaring that she could guarantee him six thousand more Wushang Cavalry in just one month. “What, don’t believe me?”\nXu Qiqin gave a beautiful smile.\n“This matter wasn’t difficult in the first place, but you men are too clumsy to know how to do it the right way.”\nWang Chong stared speechlessly at Xu Qiqin.\nIf anyone else had said this to him, Wang Chong would have treated it as a joke, but if it was Xu Qiqin… This was the Great Tang’s Queen of Logistics, and her words held a completely different weight.\n“Okay! Qiqin, I leave this to you!”\n…… In the northern region of the Tibetan Plateau, the sparsely-inhabited northeast corner…\nRumble!\nWinds howled as thundering hooves shattered the calm of the plateau. The earth rumbled as a flood of steel mounted the plateau in a cloud of dust.\n“Everyone, keep up! Don’t fall behind!\n“Keep up your guard!”\nShouts rang out over the plateau. Li Siye led these soldiers, equipped in heavy armor that made his massive body seem like a heavy mountain while exuding an oppressive aura.\nWootz Steel swords were of utmost importance to Wang Chong, so Li Siye had been the first of Wang Chong’s subordinates to depart. That Wang Chong had dispatched his number one general for this task was proof enough of the priority Wang Chong had placed on this matter.\n“Is everyone here? Make a count! In addition, check your equipment. We might have to battle at any moment.”\nLi Siye’s voice sounded like a bell over the plateau.\n“Yes, General!”\nThe two thousand Wushang Cavalry quickly assembled and began to check their equipment.\n“Kong Zi-an, I will give you one thousand men. From here, go through Greater and Lesser Balur to get to Sindhu to receive the ore convoy. There’s no need to say any more about the importance Lord Marquis places on this matter. No mistakes can be permitted. Do you understand?”\nLi Siye’s sharp eyes turned to a deputy at his side.\nKong Zi-an was a talented soldier that Li Siye had discovered while leading the troops. He was calm, persistent, decisive, and had the impressive ability to judge the situation and choose the most appropriate plan. Recognizing his talent, Li Siye had made him one of his subordinates and taught him, giving him strategy texts to study.\nAfter several battles, Kong Zi-an was now Li Siye’s most powerful deputy, which was why Li Siye was giving him this task.\n“General, be at ease. This officer swears on his life that this mission will be completed!”\nKong Zi-an dismounted and kneeled on the ground, determination on his face.\nLi Siye waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to say any more. Go!”\nKong Zi-an immediately mounted his horse and led the one thousand Wushang Cavalry away in the direction of Greater and Lessur Balur. Li Siye remained with the other one thousand soldiers to stand sentinel on the plateau. He watched Kong Zi-an’s forces leave, and only after a long while did he return to his senses.\n“The rest of you, listen up! Without my order, no one is allowed to move on their own! We will wait until they return! Be ready to receive them at any time!”\n“Yes!” the army bellowed, their cries reaching into the heavens and resounding over the plateau."

王冲此时却不知道众人的想法，高仙芝和大食之间的突然征战完全打乱了他的步骤，有太多需要他去布置的事情了。 现在他需要操心的，还远不止是乌兹钢那么简单。
四皇子的事情他还没有解决吗？ 战马的事情，我不能再给他时间了，现在就必须要他的答复。” 王冲扭头道。
忽鲁也格去了西突厥汗庭三弥山，所以钢铁之城那边，四皇子的事情王冲就全部交接给了程三元。
“回侯爷，忽鲁也格那边来信，沙钵罗可汗本来已经做好了准备，但是突然出现了一点变故。 四皇子那边……恐怕没有办法像原本那样交接了。”
程三元迟疑着道。 “哦？”
“是因为西域的怛罗斯之战吗？”
程三元犹豫了一下，低下头来，还是选择了如实回答。
碛西现在正在用人用兵之际，忽格也格在三弥山那边也是出师不利，这显然不是什么好消息。
“哼，突厥人看来还是没有习惯和我打交道应该遵循的规则。 怛罗斯开战，不管这一战的结果如何，他们都不会有任何的机会！”
骑兵，骑兵……，没有马的骑兵就只是一个步卒！
王冲需要大量的兵马，这些战马就显得尤为重要了。 沙钵罗可汗那里显然是感觉到了这一点，所以才会改变了想法，想到了拖延战术。
“程三元，我给你三千乌伤铁骑，你带领一部兵的碛西都护军，即日从碛西出发，立即深入突厥大草原。 记住，一路只逐水而行，有水的地方，必然有马匹、牛羊，还有突厥部族。
十日之内，彻底的击溃突厥人在西部的兵马！”
王冲目光凛凛，显出森森的杀气。 怛罗斯之战，高仙芝被喻为西域战神，却身陷不利，被大食人围攻。 王冲之前就想过，这件事情可能会对自己和沙钵罗可汗之间的交易产生不利变数，极有可能会使西突厥生出觊觎之心，认为自己有机会。
而王冲要做的，就是彻底的打掉西突厥人的侥幸，让他们明白，即便西域出事，只要自己还在，碛西也是固若金汤。
“是，属下遵命！”
程三元立即匆匆领命而去。 这段时间，每个人都能感觉到浓烈的压力，安西的救援信一封又一封，高仙芝带领三万精锐，被喻为西域闪击将军，不败将军，他领军出征从来都是速战速决，很少持续太长的。
但是现在十多天过去了，这位大唐声名赫赫的帝国大将却依然身困怛罗斯。 就算再迟钝的人，就算对于大食毫无认知的人也知道，这一次高仙芝真正遇到了史无前例的强大敌人。 安西告急，现在全部的希望就寄托在他们身上。
“通知赵敬典，我只给他二十天的时间，不管付出多大的代价，从京师到碛西的道路必须全线打通。
另外，从碛西到安西，这一段的水泥路建设，挪交给你。 你和封常清联系，要他全力配合，这条道路，我只给你二十五天的时间，钢铁之城的人力物力全部可以供你差遣。 二十五天内，这条道路如果没有打通，军法处置！”
“是，属下遵命！”
陈彬躬身一礼，没有半句辩驳，迅速转身离去。
渐渐地，大殿内的人影越来越少，不知道过了多久，整座大殿内只剩下一道白色的倩影。 “怎么了？”
许绮琴仔细打量着王冲的脸庞，王冲的脸庞俊逸，清朗，有着这个年纪的少年难以匹敌的成熟和稳重。
那一双剑眉，器宇轩昂，斜飞入鬓，使得王冲身上更增添了几分迷人的魅力。 然而此刻，王冲的眉头却微微蹙着，让人忍不住产生几分心疼。 乌伤、碛西、安西……，只有许绮琴深深知道在这个年轻身体的肩膀上，肩负着多么庞大的压力。
所有人都把他当成了自己的主心骨，认为他无所不能，却浑然忘了，他其实还只是一个十七岁的少年。 “没什么。”
“只是我们的兵力还远远不够，近水楼台先得月，相比我们，怛罗斯距离大食帝国还是太近了。 仅靠我手中的五千乌伤铁骑，还远远不足以改变这场战争。”
一万最精锐的马克留木军团，再加上其他的重装骑兵，依照王冲对大食人的了解，以及目前收集到的情况来看，大食人的兵力至少在二十万人以上，而且还会增多，仅靠碛西的兵马还远远不够。
自己手中的筹码还是太少啊！ 王冲想到此处，心中不由长长一叹。
不过也就在这个时候，耳边突然传来嗤的一声轻笑，王冲心中一愕，下意识的抬起头来，只见许绮琴玉指葱葱，轻掩口鼻，笑的娇躯轻颤，连脸都红了。
“我还以为你在担心什么，原来是这个。 交给我吧，这件事我来帮你处理，保证你一个月后多出至少六千的乌伤骑兵。” 许绮琴自信道。
！ ！”
王冲浑身剧震，一脸吃惊的看着许绮琴。
没有人比他更加了解乌伤村了，他们极其的排外，普通人连进都进不去。 纵然是他拥有前世的记忆，当初也是花费了巨大的力气才招募到五千铁骑，而且乌伤村人本来就不多，能分出五千人马来已经是相当不容易了，就连王冲都不敢再开口。
但是现在，许绮琴居然自信满满的向他保证，一个月后，再替他招募六千的乌伤铁骑。
“怎么，不相信？”
“这件事情本来就不是太难，只是你们男人笨手笨脚，根本不懂得怎么正确的去做罢了。”
王冲怔怔的看着许绮琴，完全说不出话来。
如果换了一个人跟他说这番话，王冲会把它当成一个笑话，但是如果是许绮琴……，这位大唐的后勤女王说出这番话，意义和分量就完全不同。
“好！ 绮琴，那这件事就交给你了！”
乌斯藏高原北境，东北角，人迹罕至的地方。
“轰隆隆！”
气流涌动，一阵急促的马蹄声打破了高原的平静。
“所有人跟上！ 不要掉队！”
一阵阵呼喝声响彻高原。 在队伍的最前面，李嗣业一马当先，疾驰而来。
他穿着一身重甲，庞大的身躯有如一座沉重的山峰般，散发出一股风暴般强大的压迫力。
乌兹钢剑对于现在的众人来说是最重要的，远远超过了其他的一切，所以王冲身边的部将中，李嗣业是最早出发的。 将手下这名第一大将派出来，也足以证明王冲对这件事的重视。
清点人数！ 另外，仔细检查自己的武器装备，随时应对可能出现的战争。”
李嗣业的声音有如洪钟大吕，响彻高原。
“是，将军！”
李嗣业的声音一落，两千乌伤铁骑迅速集结，并且完成了所有的准备工作。
“孔子安，我分给你一千兵马，你从这里出发，通过大小勃律，直接深入身毒，接应运送矿石的车队。 侯爷对这件事情的重视不必多说，绝对不能出现任何的差池。
李嗣业目光锐利，扭过头来，望向身旁的一名副将。
这个人叫孔子安，是李嗣业在带兵的过程中发掘出来的，冷静，坚毅，果决，有判断力，能够审时度势，做出最正确的决策。 李嗣业感觉到了他身上的天赋，把他带在身边，交给他兵书战策，以及一身所学。
经历过连续几场的大战，孔子安已经成长为李嗣业身边的最强副将，这也是这次行动，李嗣业把他调过来的原因。
“将军放心，末将一定誓死完成！”
孔子安翻身下马，跪在地上，一脸坚毅道。
“不必多说了，去吧！” 李嗣业挥了挥手道。
他的声音一落，孔子安迅速翻身上马，带领一千乌伤铁骑轰隆隆如同汹涌的潮水般，朝着大小勃律和身毒的方向而去。 李嗣业带领着另外的一千人马，伫立在高原上，目视着孔子安等人消失，久久才回过神来。
“其他众军听令，没有我的命令，谁都不许擅动！ 我们就在这里，一直等到他们归来，随时接应！”
大军的轰鸣声，有如巨浪冲上云霄，响彻整个高原。

Wang Chong currently knew little about what his subordinates were thinking. The sudden battle between Gao Xianzhi and the Arabs had completely upset his plans, and he had far too many things to take care of, not just something as simple as the Wootz Steel.
Wang Chong turned his head and said, “Cheng Sanyuan, what has Hulayeg said? Has the matter of the Fourth Prince still not been taken care of? I can’t give him any more time on the warhorses. I need his reply soon.”
Hulayeg was at the court of the Western Turkic Khagan in Mount Sanmi, so Wang Chong had given the Fourth Prince over to Cheng Sanyuan to handle.
“Yes, Lord Marquis. Hulayeg has sent a letter saying that Ishbara Khagan had finished preparations, but there was a sudden incident. The Fourth Prince… we might not be able to hand him over according to the original proposal,” Cheng Sanyuan hesitantly said.
Wang Chong’s brow slightly creased, but then his eyes glimmered and he gave a derisive chuckle.
“Is it because of the Battle of Talas in the Western Regions?”
Cheng Sanyuan hesitated before lowering his head and giving the true answer. “Yes!”
Qixi was currently in dire need of manpower, and Hulayeg’s report that matters at Mount Sanmi were not proceeding smoothly was clearly ill news.
“Hmph, it seems like the Turks haven’t gotten used to the fact that when you deal with me, you have to play by the rules. No matter how the Battle of Talas ends up, they won’t get a single chance!”
Cavalry, cavalry… without horses, cavalry could only be infantry!

If this road is not finished in twenty-five days, everything will be handled according to military law!”
“Yes, your subordinate will go!”
Chen Bin bowed, leaving without asking a single question. ……
Order after order was issued within the hall, setting all of Qixi and Wushang rumbling to life. Gradually, the number of people in the hall dwindled away, and in the end, only the white-clothed and graceful figure was left.
“What’s wrong?” Xu Qiqin lithely walked over, her voice gentle as she looked at Wang Chong’s silent frown.
Xu Qiqin inspected Wang Chong’s face. It was handsome, bright, yet suffused with a composure and maturity that few of his peers could ever hope to match.

When he thought about this, he couldn’t help but give a long sigh, but then he heard giggling at his ear. Raising his head in astonishment, he saw that Xu Qiqin was covering her mouth and laughing so hard that her petite body was shaking, her face red.
“I thought that you were worried about something serious, but this is all it was. Leave it to me. I’ll help you handle this. I can guarantee that within a month, I can get you six thousand Wushang Cavalry,” Xu Qiqin confidently said.
“!!!”
Wang Chong trembled in shock as he stared at Xu Qiqin.
No one understood Wushang Village more than he did. These people were extremely xenophobic and did not permit ordinary outsiders entry. Even with the memories from his past life, he had needed to expend a great deal of energy to recruit five thousand Wushang Cavalry. In addition, Wushang Village did not have that many people, and getting five thousand had been so difficult that Wang Chong had not dared to ask for any more.
But now, Xu Qiqin was confidently declaring that she could guarantee him six thousand more Wushang Cavalry in just one month. “What, don’t believe me?”
Xu Qiqin gave a beautiful smile.
“This matter wasn’t difficult in the first place, but you men are too clumsy to know how to do it the right way.”
Wang Chong stared speechlessly at Xu Qiqin.
If anyone else had said this to him, Wang Chong would have treated it as a joke, but if it was Xu Qiqin… This was the Great Tang’s Queen of Logistics, and her words held a completely different weight.
“Okay! Qiqin, I leave this to you!”
…… In the northern region of the Tibetan Plateau, the sparsely-inhabited northeast corner…
Rumble!
Winds howled as thundering hooves shattered the calm of the plateau. The earth rumbled as a flood of steel mounted the plateau in a cloud of dust.
“Everyone, keep up! Don’t fall behind!
“Keep up your guard!”
Shouts rang out over the plateau. Li Siye led these soldiers, equipped in heavy armor that made his massive body seem like a heavy mountain while exuding an oppressive aura.
Wootz Steel swords were of utmost importance to Wang Chong, so Li Siye had been the first of Wang Chong’s subordinates to depart. That Wang Chong had dispatched his number one general for this task was proof enough of the priority Wang Chong had placed on this matter.
“Is everyone here? Make a count! In addition, check your equipment. We might have to battle at any moment.”
Li Siye’s voice sounded like a bell over the plateau.
“Yes, General!”
The two thousand Wushang Cavalry quickly assembled and began to check their equipment.
“Kong Zi-an, I will give you one thousand men. From here, go through Greater and Lesser Balur to get to Sindhu to receive the ore convoy. There’s no need to say any more about the importance Lord Marquis places on this matter. No mistakes can be permitted. Do you understand?”
Li Siye’s sharp eyes turned to a deputy at his side.
Kong Zi-an was a talented soldier that Li Siye had discovered while leading the troops. He was calm, persistent, decisive, and had the impressive ability to judge the situation and choose the most appropriate plan. Recognizing his talent, Li Siye had made him one of his subordinates and taught him, giving him strategy texts to study.
After several battles, Kong Zi-an was now Li Siye’s most powerful deputy, which was why Li Siye was giving him this task.
“General, be at ease. This officer swears on his life that this mission will be completed!”
Kong Zi-an dismounted and kneeled on the ground, determination on his face.
Li Siye waved his hand and said, “There’s no need to say any more. Go!”
Kong Zi-an immediately mounted his horse and led the one thousand Wushang Cavalry away in the direction of Greater and Lessur Balur. Li Siye remained with the other one thousand soldiers to stand sentinel on the plateau. He watched Kong Zi-an’s forces leave, and only after a long while did he return to his senses.
“The rest of you, listen up! Without my order, no one is allowed to move on their own! We will wait until they return! Be ready to receive them at any time!”
“Yes!” the army bellowed, their cries reaching into the heavens and resounding over the plateau.

第160章
这种人也能献爱心？
不过井妍没有问，而是压在了心底。 想到昨天看到的视频和传闻，看方正的眼神，越发的尊敬了，还有几分好奇，这究竟是怎样一个僧人啊？ 难道真是活佛？
这时候，方正说话了：“阿弥陀佛，施主如果真想帮贫僧，就帮贫僧把东西摆好吧。
这可是一个不小的工程。” 男子看看箱子里的那点东西，顿时笑了，这也算大工程？
村民们见此，也都动心了，干活就有东西拿？ 这个好啊！
于是一个个用希翼的眼神看着方正，方正也不负众望的，对大家道：“贫僧车上还有些箱子，还有人愿意帮忙么？”
“我我我我！”
“我来！”
“我力气大！”
我想要那个粉丝的……”刚刚井妍要给东西的小女孩来到方正身边，小心翼翼的问道。
方正看着眼前一拥而上的村民，其中还有孩子，方正微微一笑道：“诸位施主，不要着急，只要帮忙的都有报酬。”
结果话音才落，村民一拥而上，几个身长、手长的，更是三下五除二，所有东西全都搬了下来。
这回不用方正出手了，井妍早就准备好了，立刻拿出衣物作为报酬发了下去，得到报酬的村民顿时笑开了花。
井妍见此，有些不忍了，正当她在想办法的时候。
方正忽然蹲下来，对小女孩道：“小施主，贫僧这还有一个，帮贫僧拿过去好么？”
方正如同变魔术一般，手里多了一个小纸包。
井妍愕然，纸包？ 这也行？
小丫头很单纯，立刻兴高采烈的拿着跑过去了，将纸包小心翼翼的放在了箱子上，然后又怕风大把纸包吹跑了，于是选了一个箱子中间的黄金位置，将纸包放了进去。 这才心满意足的跑了回来。
方正则拿出粉红色的文具盒交给她，笑道：“谢谢小施主，这是你应得的。 只要你肯努力，没有什么东西是你得不到的。”
小丫头似懂非懂的点着头，抱着粉红色的文具盒，开心的跑了。
而那些村民闻言，则流露出若有所思的神色，心中不断回响着方正的话：“只要你肯努力，没有什么东西是你得不到的！” 想想他们自己的一生，顿时有人流露出了羞愧之色。
那么神秘？” 井妍悄悄的问道。
方正呵呵笑道：“什么都没有，就是一个纸包。”
“你的这些东西，怎么分，贫僧也不清楚，剩下的还是施主来吧。”
井妍点点头，道：“方正法师，你的意思我懂了，放心吧，我不会给他们嗟来之食，我会给他们足够的尊重。”
方正闻言，双手合十，宣了一句佛号：“阿弥陀佛。”
井妍笑了笑，走过去，开始情人帮忙开箱，摆物品，由后者是找人帮忙喊其他人过来等等……总之，井妍总有不少活，可以让人帮忙，然后将对方需要的东西送给对方。
看到这里，方正微微点头，心道：“果然，这种活还是得专业的人士来干啊。” 就在方正和井妍这边忙的热火朝天的时候，远处开来一辆黑色的面包车，面包车进了村子，立刻停了下来。 车门打开，下来五个黄毛，穿着黑色短袖，衣服上印着大大牛直播爱心慈善捐助。
五个人中有四个牛高马大的，还有一个各自不算高，但是长相怎么看都和好人贴不上边。 方正皱着眉头，一指禅师说过，相由心生，恶人不见得长着恶人的脸，但是脸上一定会挂着我是恶人的招牌！ 例如眼神，例如散发出来的气质，又例如其他的种种微表情……除非是伪装大事，否则很难将自己的内心完全藏起来。
“这种人也能做慈善？ 真的假的？”
方正忍不住在心中嘀咕了一句。 井妍也看到了这些人，立刻停了下来，走了过来，低声道：“方正法师，这就是我今天来的目的。
“什么真的？” 方正有点懵，想到井妍之前说的话，方正有点明白了，井妍不是专门来做慈善的，而是另有目的！
“来来来，大家过来，生活条件不好的都过来，发钱了发钱了。” 矮个子男子，拿出一沓子钱，大声叫道。
喜欢我们的朋友，点赞，砸蛋，谢谢！ 如果你也想加入我们，不用亲自来，你打赏一分钱，我们就捐一分钱！ 只留下一点点活动经费，现场直播，打赏多少，捐多少！”
说完，男子将手机高高举起，扫了一圈，一个个衣衫褴褛的村民，骨瘦如柴的孩子被录了进去，直播间内顿时沸腾了。
“这也太可怜了吧。”
“看着那些孩子心酸。”
“每当父母以前，也没觉得怎么样。 当了父母后，真的看不了这个，打赏火箭！”
“太难受了，我想不通，村子那么穷，干嘛不进城打工？ 随便打打工，也不至于这么穷吧？”

He had now formed a general understanding of the conflicts that existed between the sects, the role that the National Martial Arts Association played, the size of the community, and the martial arts skills of this world. By contrast, he gained a better understanding of his own martial arts skills now. With his subpar skills, he realized that they weren't really enough to do anything. Any one of those ordinary disciples from the large sects who'd trained every day since childhood would already be equal to Zhang Ye's level.

He did not know what the situation would be like tomorrow, but if any trouble occurred, he would be of little help with his mediocre kung fu. Not only would he be of little help, he would also find it difficult to fend for himself. After all, this was the most important convention of the Chinese martial arts world.

第920章 【强化版张烨（上）！
外面终于清净了。 最后一个坚持在客栈楼下练硬气武的上海散修也累了，嗷了一嗓子后收了功，上楼回去睡觉了。
张烨房间里。
辰辰道：“张烨。”
张烨看去，“干嘛？”
辰辰说：“你为什么这么缺德？”
张烨眨眼道：“我缺德吗？”
辰辰道：“张烨，你怎么去了哪里，哪里就会倒霉？”
“我啊，那是路见不平拔刀相助，哈！” 张烨大言不惭道：“看见你张叔叔刚才号令群雄的气势了没有？
张烨汗道：“要什么十万啊，见好就收，见好就收。”
辰辰：“张烨。”
张烨：“嘛？”
辰辰看着他，很认真地问道：“这是不是就是电视上说的医-闹？”
噗！
张烨晕倒！
我医-闹你妹啊！ 有没有这么难听啊？
张烨翻白眼哼哼道：“有空多跟你张叔叔学点好，别老跟你大姨学。” 不过说完这话，张烨也老脸一热，跟他学什么好啊，今儿个这一天，他还真没教孩子什么好儿。 辰辰哦了一声。
这一架下来，也让张烨对国术界有了一个全面的认识，门派之间的矛盾啊，国术协会的地位啊，人员整体数量啊，国术圈的功夫水平啊，他都有了大致的了解。 对比之下，对自己身上这点功夫他也有了自知之明，他那半不啰唆的功力，还真不够看的，那些从小习武每日练功的大派弟子，即便普普通通拿出来一个，也差不多都是张烨这个水平，若是天赋好一点的，就像今天昆仑派的那个鸡贼，如果真刀真枪打起来，张烨真干不过！
实力还是不行啊！
关键是身体素质跟不上啊！
眼看，明天就是国术大会召开的日子了，老饶也不知道会不会现身，反正吃饭时听那些大派弟子们的言谈，情况很是不妙啊，很多人都是来对付饶爱敏的，这让张烨也不禁急迫起来，明天还不知道是个什么情况，可一旦真有点什么事情，他这点功夫用处不大啊，不仅帮不上什么忙，估计连自保都困难，毕竟这是国术界的最高大会，武林上的能人隐士高手掌门可都来了，全都是身怀绝技的！ 不行！
要提高一下身体素质啊！
不然，他连那一百多本太极拳技能经验书的真正水平都发挥不出来，他的力量和体力都限制了他的实力！
张烨现在的感觉，就像一个身怀绝技的小孩儿，即便你功夫再高，功力再深，你的身体条件在那里摆着，你也不可能打得过一个差不多水平的大人，这是客观条件决定的。 张烨就是这么个情况，一个正儿八经九年制义务教育出来的城市人，连碗都不刷、衣服都不洗、体育课都不及格的主儿，他就是你妈学会了黯然销-魂掌也销-魂不出来啊！ 再把腰给扭了！
于是，张烨只有一个选择了！
——抽奖！ 打开游戏戒指，很久没用过抽奖功能了，乃至张烨看了一眼后都有些陌生的感觉，不过还是很快回忆起来，略一犹豫，他没有点二级类别的抽奖，而是选择了最低类别的抽奖方式，十万一次的罗盘抽奖。 因为今天，张烨只想要属性类的物品，只要能提高他身体素质的，只要能给他打好身体基础的东西，抽多少他要多少，只有底子打好了，他才可能把功夫提上去！
来吧。
先试一次，看看手气。
张烨去厕所打开换气，点了支烟，刚抽了几口，抽奖结果就出来了，指针竟然真的停在了属性类区域。
宝箱（小）开出，张烨笑呵呵地一打开，想碰一下运气，结果当他掀开金色宝箱盖子的时候，却发现里面什么都没有——是空的，箱子白抽了！ 张烨哭笑不得，这是出师不利呀！
再来，再试试。
二话不说，张烨又点击了开始抽奖的按钮！ 罗盘动了！
张烨这回也不是那么在意，前面两把先热热身。 当指针停下的时候，张烨才去看了一眼，很失望，发现是消耗类的宝箱，虽然这里面曾经开出过很多不错的东西，也曾经给过张烨极其重要的帮助，但今天他真不需要这些，他的目标就是属性类（小）宝箱，这才是燃眉之急的。
开都开了，打开吧。
宝箱开启——出现了一个熟悉的物品！
幸运面包——增加玩家幸运值，持续时间五分钟。
这个物品当初张烨抽中过，甚至后来还得到过一个特殊类商城权限：幸运光环。 其实想一想，幸运光环的幸运效果其实和幸运面包应该是一模一样的，是最初级的幸运施加，当然，后来张烨又抽中了一个更高级的幸运光环权限，现在的光环也变成了幸运光环（升级版）了。
张烨一笑，这玩意儿算还不错啊，正好他不舍得花那么多声望值去开升级版的幸运光环抽初级类别的抽奖，这个幸运面包来的正合适！
吃掉！ 开启！
张烨当即就把幸运面包给用了！
幸运生效：倒计时四分五十九秒。
随后，张烨也不敢浪费，马上已经点击了新一轮的罗盘抽奖，等着它转啊转，转啊转！
指针慢下来了！
张烨这次也很重视地聚精会神起来，脑子里也不断在推测指针停下来的位置，咦，好像要停在属性类区域了？
就是你了！
张烨飞快加注，一百注，三百注，五百注——本来到这里犹豫了一下，但还是赌博似的一咬牙，麻痹，玩就玩大的！ 加注一千！
算上本来的一注，一共是一千零一注！
要知道，这可是一个亿的声望值啊，就这么被张烨给造出去了！
力量果实！
力量果实！
一定要是力量！
张烨心里默念，这是他现在最想要的，也是最缺的！ 指针停了，果然是属性类区域！
张烨做了个深呼吸，攥了攥拳头，就猛然间掀开了宝箱（小）的盖子！
【体力果实】1001个：永久性增加玩家体力值。
不是力量？ 是体力果实？
哈哈，也不错啊！
张烨一阵激动，体力对于一个练家子来说有多重要，这根本也不用说了，这也张烨急缺的最基础的身体素质，所有武林高手都必须要有极好的体力，这是有大用处的，比如——逃命的时候比别人跑的远。
当然，比武的时候肯定也用的上！

Chapter 920: Zhang Ye, Enhanced Edition! (Beginning)
The last non-affiliate from Shanghai who insisted on training his hard qigong downstairs at the inn was getting tired. He let out a shout before cooling down with the closing form, then proceeded upstairs back to his room to sleep.
In Zhang Ye's room.
Chenchen called out, "Zhang Ye."
Zhang Ye looked over and asked, "What?"
Chenchen said, "Why were you so mean?"
Zhang Ye blinked. "Was I mean?"
Chenchen asked, "Zhang Ye, why is it that wherever you go, that place would always suffer?"
"I was just stepping in to help in the face of injustice, ha!" Zhang Ye boasted without shame, "Did you see your Uncle Zhang's imposing manner when I commanded the masses earlier? Did you see it? That's what you call appeal and charisma. How was it? They still had to agree to compensate everyone's medical fees at the end, didn't they?"
Zhang Ye chided her in embarrassment, "What 100,000 yuan? We should not be too greedy."
Chenchen said, "Zhang Ye."
Zhang Ye replied, "What?"
Chenchen looked at him then asked in all seriousness, "Is this what they were talking about on television when they mentioned 'healthcare disturbance'?"[1.]
Pfft!
Zhang Ye nearly fainted!
Healthcare disturbance, your sister! Could you put it any more scandalous than that?
"You insolent brat, go to sleep already!" Zhang Ye rolled his eyes and said indignantly, "If you have the time, you should be learning to be good from your Uncle Zhang instead. Don't always learn from your aunt." But after saying that, Zhang Ye's face turned red. What good could she learn from him? Throughout the day, he had not really done anything good for her to learn from.
After settling Chenchen down and watching her fall asleep in bed, Zhang Ye found a chair to sit down on and started rubbing his arms and legs in pain. He had received a few blows in today's fight and it was really painful for him. With this fight, it also allowed Zhang Ye to gain a comprehensive understanding of the Chinese martial arts world. He had now formed a general understanding of the conflicts that existed between the sects, the role that the National Martial Arts Association played, the size of the community, and the martial arts skills of this world. By contrast, he gained a better understanding of his own martial arts skills now. With his subpar skills, he realized that they weren't really enough to do anything. Any one of those ordinary disciples from the large sects who'd trained every day since childhood would already be equal to Zhang Ye's level. If they were more talented, like that rogue from the Kunlun Sect today, Zhang Ye would definitely not be able to take them on if they were to fight for real!
His skills were still not at that level!
The key issue was that his physical fitness could not keep up!
As the Martial Arts Conference would officially be convened tomorrow, he didn't know if Old Rao would make an appearance or not. In any case, he knew that the situation would not be good after listening to the conversations between those large sects' disciples at dinner. Many of them were here to deal with Rao Aimin, and this made Zhang Ye feel very nervous. He did not know what the situation would be like tomorrow, but if any trouble occurred, he would be of little help with his mediocre kung fu. Not only would he be of little help, he would also find it difficult to fend for himself. After all, this was the most important convention of the Chinese martial arts world. All the talented and reclusive experts, as well as sect leaders of the martial arts community, would be in attendance and every one of them possessed unique skills that were incomparable!
He had to improve his physical fitness!
If not, he wouldn't even be able to truly wield the power of those hundred-plus Taiji Fist Skill Experience Books effectively since his strength and stamina were limiting his abilities!
Zhang Ye felt that he was like a child with extraordinary skills. Even with his impressive martial arts and deep set of skills, if his physical fitness wasn't there, it would be impossible for him to beat an adult of similar standing. These objective conditions would be the decisive factors. This was the state Zhang Ye was in. A city dweller who went through a nine-year compulsory education, a person who did not even do the dishes or laundry, someone who could not even pass his PE classes; even if he had learned the Melancholic Palms, he could not have brought out the prowess of it! He might even twist his back![2.]
As such, Zhang Ye was only left with one choice!

As long as his foundation was strong enough, he would be able to increase the proficiency of his kung fu!
Here we go.
It was time to give it a spin and see how his luck would turn out.
100,000 Reputation Points were spent. To a person with close to 2.2 billion Reputation Points, this was just a drop in the bucket to him. The wheel began to spin. The lottery draw began!
Zhang Ye went to the bathroom and turned on the fan. He lit a cigarette, and after a few drags, the result of the lottery draw was out. The needle had actually stopped in the Stats Category slice. A Treasure Chest (Small) appeared. Zhang Ye laughed as he opened it, hoping to test his luck.

Zhang Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry at this bad start! In the Lottery Draw (One), the chances of receiving an empty treasure chest were extremely low. He had only met with one such occasion before in the many spins of the lottery draw. This was the second time.
Again. Let's give it another try.
Without further ado, Zhang Ye tapped the lottery draw button again! The wheel began to spin!
Zhang Ye did not really mind the outcome of this round either. The first two draws were just to warm up. After the needle stopped, Zhang Ye had a look at the result and was very disappointed when he saw that it was a Consumption Category's treasure chest. Although some rather good items had appeared in this category before and given Zhang Ye some really important help in the past, he did not feel that he needed these today. His target was the Stats Category's Treasure Chest (Small). That was the most pressing matter right now.
Since that was what he had gotten, he just opened it.
He flipped open the treasure chest—out came a familiar item!
Lucky Bread: Increases the player's luck stat for a duration of five minutes.
Zhang Ye had gotten this item before and even earned the right to purchase a similar item from the Merchant Shop under the Special Category—the Lucky Halo. Actually, upon further thought, the luck effects of the Lucky Halo and Lucky Bread should be exactly the same as they were the most basic of luck enhancement items. Of course, Zhang Ye later earned the right to purchase the upgraded version of the Lucky Halo, which had now become the Lucky Halo (Upgraded) item.

Zhang Ye immediately put the Lucky Bread to use!
Lucky Bread in effect: Counting down. 4:59.
Following that, Zhang Ye did not dare waste any more time and instantly started the next round of the lottery draw. He waited as the wheel spun round and round!
The wheel began slowing down!
Zhang Ye treated it seriously and was fully focused this time. His mind was also continuously predicting the position that the needle would stop at. Eh, it seemed like it was going to stop at the Stats Category?
It's gotta be it!
Zhang Ye immediately put in the additional stakes. 100 stakes, 300 stakes, 500 stakes. Initially, he hesitated a while here, but he grit his teeth like he was gambling and thought, Fuck it! If we're gonna play, let's play big!
Counting the original stake, the total was now 1,001 stakes!
100 million Reputation Points! This was 100 million Reputation Points Zhang Ye had used up just like that!
Fruit of Strength!
Fruit of Strength!
It must be strength!
Zhang Ye kept wishing for it in his head. This was what he wanted the most right now and also what he lacked the most!
The wheel stopped and the needle was really pointing at the Stats Category! Zhang Ye took a deep breath and clenched his fists. Then he abruptly opened up the Treasure Chest (Small)!
[Fruit of Stamina] × 1,001: Permanently increases the stamina of the player.
It was not strength? But a Fruit of Stamina instead?
Haha, this wasn't too bad either!
Zhang Ye was feeling excited all the same. There was no need to explain how important stamina was for a martial artist. This was one of the most basic foundations of physical fitness that Zhang Ye was desperately lacking. Every martial arts expert must have exceptionally good stamina that could be put to great use. For example, one could run farther than others when fleeing for one's life.
Of course, it would, without a doubt, be useful during a duel too!

Crack…..\nWait a minute… where is the bone? Where is the bone in the middle of the meat?\nEveryone stared blankly at Young Master Xing, as though they were watching a terrifying orangutan chewing, completely forgetting about their manners.\nIn such a high class banquet event, there was actually someone so wild and crude.\nAnd Bell who was sitting by his side quietly smiling, she was like a goddess! Beside the oil splashing and queer man chewing on bones, she was divine. All the seniors in the crowd all sighed, such a good girl, it was a pity.\nShe must be in the demonic palms of the barbarian!\nA few of the youngsters looked at each other.\nTang Tian was eating happily, going to the banquet was the right thing to do! It was practically a heaven of food, with all types and delicacies, everything was delicious. The thing that made him sad was that every portion was too small. But amidst the sadness, upon seeing the oily pork hock, the sadness had all disappeared.\nThis was definitely the best pork hock he had ever eaten!\nIt made him almost swallow his own tongue as well.\nHe wanted more after finishing, looking around, he waited for the waiter, and immediately raised his hand, asking for 10 more!\n10 more!\nBell, who was at the side looking really gorgeous could take it no more. The smile on her face was frozen and the veins on her forehead were throbbing. Very quickly, she felt all the gazes around her, filled with sneers and pity.\nBut when she saw the waiter’s expression upon receiving the order of 10 portions of pork hock, she froze, then suddenly smiled again. She suddenly thought that it was very interesting. Bell turned her face, her attractive smile was caught by the waiter, who thought he saw an angel. He had a pitiful face as he looked at her pleadingly, hoping that Bell would stop the terrifying request.\nIf the 10 portions of pork hock were served, it would become a disaster, as the pork sauce smell would drown the entire place.\n“Eating like that is bad for your body.” Bell gentle voice caused everyone on sight to become limp, the waiter heaved a sigh of relief, but after that she turned to look at the waiter, and said gently, “For every pork hock portion, please add double the sauce. Thank you.”\nThe waiter was dumbstruck.\nTang Tian’s eyes lit up, so it was like that, then he followed on, “That’s right! 10 portions, every portion should have double the sauce. Serve everything together!”\nThe 10 portions of pork elbow with sauce appeared in the banquet. The dense pork sauce smell, filled every corner of the scene. There was a short silence, guests who were happily drinking and holding their wine cups, all turned in astonishment.\nCrack crack!\nThe cracking of bone sounds sent shivers down their spines, as the entire place could hear the sound loud and clear.\n“I hate pork hock!” A voice suddenly said.\nA young lady dressed in snow white skirt suddenly appeared at Tang Tian’s table, she pouted, obviously unhappy. Her looks were rather outstanding, her skin more firm and white than Bell, she was cute yet seductive, craftiness deep within her seemingly harmless eyes.\nBell could feel the hostility from the young lady, and when she turned, she immediately understood why. The young men around had their gazes on her from the beginning, causing the young lady to be jealous.\nShe could not help smiling, she could not care about the little girl’s thoughts.\nBell’s laugh, actually added a trace of strong spirit into her gentle demeanor. She was a lone wolf, and had experienced many things, more than what the pampered and spoilt young girl. If you had to compare, Bell who was a flower who had braved storms and winds, was sweet tempered and gentle, making people have a tender feeling towards her. But her laugh, caused them to feel, under her weakness, there was strength, that caused people to respect.\nThe young lady’s face changed, her envy became stronger. She grabbed the tablecloth, and was about to lift the table.\nA light aura flashed past.\nDuo! A kitchen knife stabbed in between the young lady’s index and middle finger, narrowly cutting her fingers.\nShe was stunned, until the cold knife reflected the image of her perspiring in cold sweat, her face as white as paper, did she scream, “Ah!”\nThe sharp scream, caused people’s heart to tremble.\n“Master!” a subordinate shouted, and immediately looked at Xie Guang Zhong.\nXie Guang Zhong felt a headache coming, he did not think that Young Master Xing would be so revolting. If he had known that Young Master Xing would cause so many problems, he would had reconsidered inviting him to join the banquet.\n“Don’t be anxious, watch the situation.” Xie Guang Zhong shook his head. At this point of time, it appeared that he could not resolve the situation, and felt that he would make things worse.\nTang Tian ignored the young lady, and instantly used his hand to grab another piece of the meat, and continued biting down.\nMany people started changing their view of Tang Tian. His knife, displayed an extremely high level of precision. The young lady’s hand was already small enough, to be able to accurately stab the small width between her fingers, without even hurting her, that eye power and hand power was simply too astonishing.\nBut that did not mean everyone was that calm.\n“Xiao Xue, Xiao Xue, are you hurt?” A young man’s frightened voice came out.\nXiao Xue started to cry out loud.\n“Dear sir, the way you treat this little lady, is too ruthless!” a middle aged man suddenly came forward, his face gloom. He was the young man’s father, the both of their families were very close, upon seeing Xiao Xue was being bullied, he naturally stood out.\nTang Tian continued being immersed in his hock, completely ignoring him. Although there were people making a ruckus, but they did not affect Tang Tian’s eating, as the food was still nice.\nCrack crack!\nThe biting of bones sounded like sneers, causing the middle aged man to have a flush to his face. He was a big figure in Yong An City, since when ever did he receive such treatment?\n“Since Sir likes to eat, then I will let you eat!” The middle aged man said coldly, “Ah Jiu, feed him! Don’t think that, just by spending 1.5 billion can allow you to act like that in Yong An City.”\nA man stood out and said.\nThe crowd burst into an uproar, they all started to leave. Although the middle aged man was not the strongest of Yong An City, but he was in the top five. He was close to some elders of the Onyx Soul, and Ah Jiu was someone with unfathomable power.\nAh Jiu slowly walked towards Tang Tian.\n“Young miss, please stand aside!” A young man saw Bell standing next to Tang Tian, and became anxious, so he immediately reminded her.\nBell smiled and shook her head, her movements was graceful, provoking a burst of sighs and envy. All of the men looked at Tang Tian, all feeling unhappy, and they wanted Ah Jiu to teach him a lesson.\nBell’s smile had attracted many people, but her heart was already frozen. The boss beside her, was obviously already angered.\nShe looked at Ah Jiu, and could not help but to pity him. At this time, Bell obviously did not dodge to one side, she just sat up even straighter.\nI want to thank everybody here, for this is the best chance to prove my loyalty!\nTang Tian was actually already pissed off, he did not provoke anyone and just wanted to eat in peace, but people still had to disturb him.\nThis was his first time encountering such good pork hock, so Tang Tian was eating everything happily. But who knew things would blow up at him, causing him to be extremely angry. And for the other party to bring up his 1.5 billion, it meant that they were already eyeing him.\nThese small cats and dogs dare to bully this big brother!\nTang Tian’s face darkened, and he grabbed another pork elbow.\nHis True Power was agitated, the aura around his entire body, with not the least bit of holding back, he released everything out.\nBang!\nAs though a storm had suddenly erupted, the air on scene immediately formed a ripple that could be seen with the naked eye.\nAh Jiu could no longer maintain his cold look, and his face changed. He had plenty of experience in battle, but this was the first time he had met such a terrifying Qi, and a phrase came up in his mind, Heaven Road List martial artist!\nNo, not just some Heaven Road List martial artist. Ah Jiu had met many martial artists on the list, but he had never met one with such a strong and suffocating aura.\nEveryone’s face turned white, they were big in numbers, but most of them only had ordinary strength. It was as though an invisible hand had grabbed their hearts, causing their entire body to be cold and frozen on the spot.\nTang Tian continued eating his pork, the aura emitting from his body increasingly becoming stronger.\nAh Jiu’s face turned paler, fear was clearly seen in his eyes.\nThe Silver Spirit Spiralling Energy in Tang Tian’s body increased its rotating speed, the faster it spun, the more the aura of Qi around his body. The higher it rose, it started to cause the surrounding air to form waves of ripples.\nBell who was sitting beside him was extremely shocked, her skin started to have a sense of stabbing pain.\nThe last pork elbow entered his mouth.\nThe ripples around Tang Tian had become rays of air streams rotating at high speeds around Tang Tian, causing ‘chi chi’ sounds to come out.\nAh Jiu’s eyes were left with despair.\n“I hate people who disturb me when I eat my meat.”\nTang Tian’s voice was like a demon from a nightmare, enveloping the entire place. He slowly stood up, and walked towards the middle aged man. He did not even look at Ah Jiu, for Ah Jiu’s body was trembling from head to toe, his face pale white, and did not even dare to move.\nThe middle aged man because of fear, his face had warped entirely.\nTang Tian walked to the middle aged man, and stopped in front of him.\nPa.\nTang Tian steel hook like fingers grabbed onto the middle aged man’s neck, as though he was weightless. The middle aged man’s face had become warped due to the strong grip at his neck, and it was as though if Tang Tian pinched lightly, he would had exploded.\nThe extremely ugly orangutan mask, to the middle aged man, looked like a demon who crawled out of hell.\nIn the dead silence, only Tang Tian’s question sounded out.\n“Tell me, how do you want to resolve this?”"

天宝斋宴会。
叮铛今天罕见地穿了件女装，蓝色的晚礼服，把她的身材勾勒得淋漓尽致。 雪白香肩半露，性感的锁骨清晰可见，她脸上挂着浅浅地微笑，坐在唐天身边。
黑魂马打探消息，在很多时候，需要变幻身份。 别看叮铛平时里大大咧咧，但是精通各种伪装，像这样的宴会，她表现简直堪称完美。
迷人的浅笑，恬静而优雅的举止，让她立即成为整个宴会令人瞩目的中心。
看到这张精致的脸庞，无数人心中赞叹不已，但是每当人们的目光落在她身旁，那满脸的赞叹，瞬间化作厌恶。
真是一朵鲜花插在牛粪上啊！
一旁的星公子，脸上戴着那张丑陋的面具，最让大家难以接受的，他正在埋头狂吃。
噢老天，看看那飞溅的肉汁吧，溅在在雪白餐布上，就像刚才这里下了一场泥泞的暴雨。 再看看他那粗鲁的动作，餐刀插向肉肘，这个野蛮人竟然连肉骨头也一并切断！
更可怖的是，野蛮人竟然直接把半个肘子里丢进嘴里，看得所有人眼睛都直了。
等等……骨头呢？
肉肘中间的骨头呢？
所有人目瞪口呆地看着星公子，就像看到一只可怕大猩猩踞案大嚼，浑然忘我。
在一个级别如此之高的宴会上，竟然有如此野蛮粗鲁之辈。
而此时一脸浅笑的叮铛恬静地坐在身边，在飞溅的肉汁和令人毛骨悚然的嚼碎骨头声中，她就是女神！ 人群之中那些年长的贵族们，发出由衷的叹息，这么好的小女孩，真是可惜。
她一定是落入那个野蛮人的魔掌！
有几个少年对视一眼。
唐天吃得很开心，今天这个宴会来得太对了！ 这里简直是美食的天堂，每一种食物，都是那么可口，唯一让他觉得遗憾的，就是这些食物太小份了。 而这个遗憾，当他发现酱汁肉肘时，彻底烟消云散。
这绝对是他吃过最好吃的肉肘！
他差点连舌头都吞了下去。
吃完一份，他意犹未尽，四下张望了一眼，看到侍者，连忙招手，要了十份！
十份！
一旁保持得相当完美的叮铛终于忍不住，脸上的笑容僵住，额头青筋一跳。 很快，她感受到四周传来的目光，充满嘲笑和同情。
看不见……我看不见……叮铛自我催眠。 不过当她眼角余光看到侍者听到十份肉肘时的表情，她愣了一下，接着险些爆笑出来，她忽然觉得这一切有趣极了。 叮铛转过脸，那迷人的微笑在侍者眼中，就像天使一样。
如果十份肉酱猪肘出现在宴会现场，那是会是一场灾难，肉酱的味道会淹没整个会场。
“这样干吃对身体不好。” 叮铛的柔声细语令周围诸人无不骨头一酥，侍者松一口气，但是紧接着叮铛转过脸庞对侍者柔声嘱咐道：“每一份猪肘，请加双份酱汁。
侍者呆若木鸡。
唐天眼前一亮，原来还可以这样啊，连忙道：“没错！ 十份，每一份都要双份肉酱。 一起上！”
当十份酱汁肉肘出现在宴会现场时，那浓郁的肉酱香味，充斥在会场的每个角落。 整个会场出现一个短暂的安静，端着酒杯的宾客，一脸诧异地转过脸庞。
咔嚓咔嚓！
令人毛骨悚然的咬碎骨头声，全场清晰可闻。
“我讨厌猪肘！” 一个不悦的声音，忽然响起。
一位穿着雪白纱裙的少女出现在唐天的餐桌前，少女嘟着嘴巴，一脸不满。 少女容貌相当出众，她的皮肤比叮铛更加白晳，可爱而略带一些娇憨，只有那看似无害的目光中，闪过一丝狡黠。
叮铛隐约感受到少女对她的一丝敌意，略一转念，她便明白过来。 周围几名少年的目光，始终落在她身上，想必少女有些醋意。
她不由莞尔，对于这样的小女孩心思，她却不太在意。
li，见惯大风大浪，远非这些娇生惯养的小女孩可比。 如果说，刚才的叮铛，犹如风雨的花朵，温婉柔美，让人心生怜惜，而这一笑，却让人感受到，她娇弱外表下，那一丝坚强，让人不由升起一丝敬意。
面前的纱裙少女脸色微变，妒意更浓，手抓着餐布，就要掀桌。
哚！
一把餐刀钉入纱裙少女食指和中指之间，直没至柄。
她呆了呆，直到冰冷的刀面激得她浑身汗毛陡然竖了起来，她脸色刷地一下白了，失声尖叫：“啊！”
凄厉的尖叫声，让人心中一颤。
“大人！” 手下吓一跳，连忙望向谢光中。
谢光中也不由感到头痛，他没有想到那星公子，竟然是这幅德性。 如果知道星公子会弄出这么多事情，他会慎重考虑邀请星公子参加这次的宴会。
“不着急，先看看情况。” 谢光中摇头，这个时候，他出面不仅无法平息纷争，反而会相当为难。
唐天没有理会尖叫的纱裙少女，直接用手抓起一只猪肘，旁若无人地咔嚓咔嚓咬了起来。
许多人看向唐天的目光开始发生变化，唐天这一刀，展现出极高的水准。 少女的手掌本来就是小巧，抓着桌布时食指和中间之间的空间极小，餐刀准确地钉入其间，却没有伤害到少女，这份眼力手力，十分惊人。
但并不是每个人都是如此冷静。
“小雪小雪，你有没有伤着？” 一位少年惊惶的声音响起。
小雪哇地一下地放声大哭。
一位中年人越众而出，面沉如水。 他是少年的父亲，两家关系极佳，此时见小雪受欺负，他自然要站出来。 唐天自顾自地嚼着肉肘，完全没有半点理会的意思。
虽然有人捣乱，但是丝毫没有影响唐天的食yu，肉肘还是那么香。
咔嚓咔嚓！
咬碎骨头的声音就像冷笑一般，中年人顿时脸涨得通红。 他在永安城也是有头有脸的人物，什么时候受到过如此待遇？
“既然阁下那么喜欢吃，那就让你吃个够！” 中年人寒声道：“阿九，给他喂一个！
一个神色淡漠的汉子，站了出来。
人群一阵sāo动，他们自发地拉开距离。 中年人虽然不是永安城最强的势力，却是前五之列。 他和黑魂的某位长老关系极深，身边的阿九，实力深不可测。
阿九缓缓朝唐天走去。
“小姐，请您快点离开！” 一位少年看着叮铛依然端坐在唐天身旁，大为焦急，连忙出声提醒。
叮铛微笑摇摇头，动作是如此优美，惹来一阵叹息和嫉妒。 所有男人看向唐天的目光，都极度不爽，他们恨不得阿九好好教训一下这个土鳖。
叮铛脸上笑意迷人，心中却是凛然，一旁的老板，显然已经动怒。
她看向阿九的目光，不由带上一分同情。 这个时候，叮铛当然不会闪躲到一旁，她坐得更加端正笔直。
感谢你们，这是表忠心的好绝对良机啊！
唐天确实很生气，今天没招谁惹谁，吃个肘子都有人打扰。
第一次遇到这么好吃的肘子，唐天吃得兴起，结果大煞风景，他心中的愤怒可想而知。 而且对方提到十五亿，说明早就盯上了他。
阿猫阿狗都欺负到哥头上了！
唐天沉着脸，自顾自抓起一根肉肘。
真力鼓动，浑身的气势，再无半点收敛，轰然爆发。
轰！
如同风暴陡然爆裂，会场的空气，掠过一道肉眼可见的波纹。
阿九再也无法保持漠然，脸色大变。 他战斗经验极其丰富，但是第一次遇到如此恐怖的气息，他脑海中浮现四个字，天榜强者！
不，不仅仅是天榜强者，阿九见过许多天榜强者，但是没有一个天榜强者，有如此强大得令人窒息的气势。
所有人脸色煞白，他们绝大多数人，实力极为普通，他们就仿佛自己的心脏被一只无形之手握着，他们浑身冰冷，瑟瑟发抖。
唐天自顾自地嚼着肉肘，浑身散逸的气势，在以惊人的速度增强。
阿九的脸色煞白，他的眼中尽是惊恐。
唐天体内的银魂螺旋劲以惊人的速度运转，越转越快，他周身的气势不断上升，周围的空气，开始出现一道道如水波般的波汶。
一旁端坐的叮铛此时心中惊骇绝伦，她的皮肤甚至生出刺痛之感。
最后一根肉肘被他丢进嘴里。
唐天周身的波纹，已经化作一道道围绕唐天高速流转的气流，嗤嗤声不绝于耳。
阿九眼中只有绝望。
“我讨厌有人打扰我吃肉。”
唐天的声音有如梦魇般笼罩全场，他缓缓站了起来，朝中年人走去。 他看也没看阿九，阿九浑身战栗，面色灰白，一动不敢动。
中年人的脸庞因为过度的惊恐，而变得扭曲狰狞。
唐天走到中年人面前，停了下来。
啪。
唐天的五指如铁钳般抓着中年人的下巴，轻若无物般拖到自己面前。 五指铁钳中那张因为恐惧而扭曲的脸庞脆弱得仿佛轻轻一捏，就像爆裂一般。
那张奇丑无比的猩猩面具，在中年人眼中就像从地狱里爬上来的魔鬼。
死寂般的会场，只有唐天森然的问候。
“你说，这件事怎么解决？”

Sky Treasure Room Banquet.
Bell rarely dressed in feminine clothes, but on this day, she wore a blue evening dress, drawing her body outline with great saturation. Her snow white shoulders were revealed, her seductive collarbone clearly showing, and her face revealing a light smile, seated beside Tang Tian. Anyone who saw her current look, would not be able to establish any connection between her and an Onyx Soul Horse.
Onyx Soul Horse’s were specialized in information, and many times, they had to change their image. Bell was usually carefree in how she dressed, but because she was a master of disguise, her display for the banquet could be considered perfect.
The enchanting light smile, the peaceful and graceful manner, immediately made her the center of attraction.
Her flawless face, caused many people to drool. Everyone on scene had their eyes on her, their eyes full of praise which immediately turned to disgust.
A flower stuck in cow manure! (TN: tang tian is cow manure)
Young Master Xing, wearing the ugly orangutan mask, made everyone unable to bear it. He was just eating away.
Oh my god, look at that splashing of meat oil, splashing on the pure white table cloth, as though the place experienced a oil storm. Seeing his crude actions, the table knife stabbed into the meat, like a barbarian fighting with his food!
What was more terrifying, was that the cave man had actually placed half the pork hock into his mouth, causing everyone to stare.
Crack…. Crack…..
Wait a minute… where is the bone? Where is the bone in the middle of the meat?
Everyone stared blankly at Young Master Xing, as though they were watching a terrifying orangutan chewing, completely forgetting about their manners.
In such a high class banquet event, there was actually someone so wild and crude.
And Bell who was sitting by his side quietly smiling, she was like a goddess! Beside the oil splashing and queer man chewing on bones, she was divine. All the seniors in the crowd all sighed, such a good girl, it was a pity.
She must be in the demonic palms of the barbarian!
A few of the youngsters looked at each other.
Tang Tian was eating happily, going to the banquet was the right thing to do! It was practically a heaven of food, with all types and delicacies, everything was delicious. The thing that made him sad was that every portion was too small. But amidst the sadness, upon seeing the oily pork hock, the sadness had all disappeared.
This was definitely the best pork hock he had ever eaten!
It made him almost swallow his own tongue as well.
He wanted more after finishing, looking around, he waited for the waiter, and immediately raised his hand, asking for 10 more!
10 more!
Bell, who was at the side looking really gorgeous could take it no more. The smile on her face was frozen and the veins on her forehead were throbbing. Very quickly, she felt all the gazes around her, filled with sneers and pity.
But when she saw the waiter’s expression upon receiving the order of 10 portions of pork hock, she froze, then suddenly smiled again. She suddenly thought that it was very interesting. Bell turned her face, her attractive smile was caught by the waiter, who thought he saw an angel. He had a pitiful face as he looked at her pleadingly, hoping that Bell would stop the terrifying request.
If the 10 portions of pork hock were served, it would become a disaster, as the pork sauce smell would drown the entire place.
“Eating like that is bad for your body.” Bell gentle voice caused everyone on sight to become limp, the waiter heaved a sigh of relief, but after that she turned to look at the waiter, and said gently, “For every pork hock portion, please add double the sauce. Thank you.”
The waiter was dumbstruck.
Tang Tian’s eyes lit up, so it was like that, then he followed on, “That’s right! 10 portions, every portion should have double the sauce. Serve everything together!”
The 10 portions of pork elbow with sauce appeared in the banquet. The dense pork sauce smell, filled every corner of the scene. There was a short silence, guests who were happily drinking and holding their wine cups, all turned in astonishment.
Crack crack!
The cracking of bone sounds sent shivers down their spines, as the entire place could hear the sound loud and clear.
“I hate pork hock!” A voice suddenly said.
A young lady dressed in snow white skirt suddenly appeared at Tang Tian’s table, she pouted, obviously unhappy. Her looks were rather outstanding, her skin more firm and white than Bell, she was cute yet seductive, craftiness deep within her seemingly harmless eyes.
Bell could feel the hostility from the young lady, and when she turned, she immediately understood why. The young men around had their gazes on her from the beginning, causing the young lady to be jealous.
She could not help smiling, she could not care about the little girl’s thoughts.
Bell’s laugh, actually added a trace of strong spirit into her gentle demeanor. She was a lone wolf, and had experienced many things, more than what the pampered and spoilt young girl. If you had to compare, Bell who was a flower who had braved storms and winds, was sweet tempered and gentle, making people have a tender feeling towards her. But her laugh, caused them to feel, under her weakness, there was strength, that caused people to respect.
The young lady’s face changed, her envy became stronger. She grabbed the tablecloth, and was about to lift the table.
A light aura flashed past.
Duo! A kitchen knife stabbed in between the young lady’s index and middle finger, narrowly cutting her fingers.
She was stunned, until the cold knife reflected the image of her perspiring in cold sweat, her face as white as paper, did she scream, “Ah!”
The sharp scream, caused people’s heart to tremble.
“Master!” a subordinate shouted, and immediately looked at Xie Guang Zhong.
Xie Guang Zhong felt a headache coming, he did not think that Young Master Xing would be so revolting. If he had known that Young Master Xing would cause so many problems, he would had reconsidered inviting him to join the banquet.
“Don’t be anxious, watch the situation.” Xie Guang Zhong shook his head. At this point of time, it appeared that he could not resolve the situation, and felt that he would make things worse.
Tang Tian ignored the young lady, and instantly used his hand to grab another piece of the meat, and continued biting down.
Many people started changing their view of Tang Tian. His knife, displayed an extremely high level of precision. The young lady’s hand was already small enough, to be able to accurately stab the small width between her fingers, without even hurting her, that eye power and hand power was simply too astonishing.
But that did not mean everyone was that calm.
“Xiao Xue, Xiao Xue, are you hurt?” A young man’s frightened voice came out.
Xiao Xue started to cry out loud.
“Dear sir, the way you treat this little lady, is too ruthless!” a middle aged man suddenly came forward, his face gloom. He was the young man’s father, the both of their families were very close, upon seeing Xiao Xue was being bullied, he naturally stood out.
Tang Tian continued being immersed in his hock, completely ignoring him. Although there were people making a ruckus, but they did not affect Tang Tian’s eating, as the food was still nice.
Crack crack!
The biting of bones sounded like sneers, causing the middle aged man to have a flush to his face. He was a big figure in Yong An City, since when ever did he receive such treatment?
“Since Sir likes to eat, then I will let you eat!” The middle aged man said coldly, “Ah Jiu, feed him! Don’t think that, just by spending 1.5 billion can allow you to act like that in Yong An City.”
A man stood out and said.
The crowd burst into an uproar, they all started to leave. Although the middle aged man was not the strongest of Yong An City, but he was in the top five. He was close to some elders of the Onyx Soul, and Ah Jiu was someone with unfathomable power.
Ah Jiu slowly walked towards Tang Tian.
“Young miss, please stand aside!” A young man saw Bell standing next to Tang Tian, and became anxious, so he immediately reminded her.
Bell smiled and shook her head, her movements was graceful, provoking a burst of sighs and envy. All of the men looked at Tang Tian, all feeling unhappy, and they wanted Ah Jiu to teach him a lesson.
Bell’s smile had attracted many people, but her heart was already frozen. The boss beside her, was obviously already angered.
She looked at Ah Jiu, and could not help but to pity him. At this time, Bell obviously did not dodge to one side, she just sat up even straighter.
I want to thank everybody here, for this is the best chance to prove my loyalty!
Tang Tian was actually already pissed off, he did not provoke anyone and just wanted to eat in peace, but people still had to disturb him.
This was his first time encountering such good pork hock, so Tang Tian was eating everything happily. But who knew things would blow up at him, causing him to be extremely angry. And for the other party to bring up his 1.5 billion, it meant that they were already eyeing him.
These small cats and dogs dare to bully this big brother!
Tang Tian’s face darkened, and he grabbed another pork elbow.
His True Power was agitated, the aura around his entire body, with not the least bit of holding back, he released everything out.
Bang!
As though a storm had suddenly erupted, the air on scene immediately formed a ripple that could be seen with the naked eye.
Ah Jiu could no longer maintain his cold look, and his face changed. He had plenty of experience in battle, but this was the first time he had met such a terrifying Qi, and a phrase came up in his mind, Heaven Road List martial artist!
No, not just some Heaven Road List martial artist. Ah Jiu had met many martial artists on the list, but he had never met one with such a strong and suffocating aura.
Everyone’s face turned white, they were big in numbers, but most of them only had ordinary strength. It was as though an invisible hand had grabbed their hearts, causing their entire body to be cold and frozen on the spot.
Tang Tian continued eating his pork, the aura emitting from his body increasingly becoming stronger.
Ah Jiu’s face turned paler, fear was clearly seen in his eyes.
The Silver Spirit Spiralling Energy in Tang Tian’s body increased its rotating speed, the faster it spun, the more the aura of Qi around his body. The higher it rose, it started to cause the surrounding air to form waves of ripples.
Bell who was sitting beside him was extremely shocked, her skin started to have a sense of stabbing pain.
The last pork elbow entered his mouth.
The ripples around Tang Tian had become rays of air streams rotating at high speeds around Tang Tian, causing ‘chi chi’ sounds to come out.
Ah Jiu’s eyes were left with despair.
“I hate people who disturb me when I eat my meat.”
Tang Tian’s voice was like a demon from a nightmare, enveloping the entire place. He slowly stood up, and walked towards the middle aged man. He did not even look at Ah Jiu, for Ah Jiu’s body was trembling from head to toe, his face pale white, and did not even dare to move.
The middle aged man because of fear, his face had warped entirely.
Tang Tian walked to the middle aged man, and stopped in front of him.
Pa.
Tang Tian steel hook like fingers grabbed onto the middle aged man’s neck, as though he was weightless. The middle aged man’s face had become warped due to the strong grip at his neck, and it was as though if Tang Tian pinched lightly, he would had exploded.
The extremely ugly orangutan mask, to the middle aged man, looked like a demon who crawled out of hell.
In the dead silence, only Tang Tian’s question sounded out.
“Tell me, how do you want to resolve this?”

"value": "Chapter 27 - Private School\nIn the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo went over to the southeast district of the village, which was the area set aside for culture and education. The newly built hospital and the ancestral hall, as well as the private school being constructed, were all in this district.\nHe first went to Dr. Song’s hospital and saw the happy face of the old gentleman. Since the doctor’s uproar, as long as there was time, Ouyang Shuo would take the initiative to come to the hospital and visit.\nThe hospital had two parts. At the front was the area to issue medicine and treat patients. At the back were accomodations. Ouyang Shuo walked in, and saw that Dr. Song was with a patient. He did not disturb them, simply greeting the doctor, and walking back out.\nHe then went into the shrine next door. The ancestral hall for the village also had two parts. At the front was a gatehouse, divided by a square in the middle from the true ancestral hall to the back. Because Shanhai Village was player established, the Hall was not devoted to any one clan, and the surnames of the villagers were not the same. Consequently, Ouyang Shuo chose to focus on the Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of Chinese civilization, for general ancestral worship.\nNext to the ancestral hall was the Mazu temple, now wreathed in incense. More than 80% of the people of Shanhai Village had chosen to place their faith in Mazu.\nNot far away, the private school was being built. Zhao Dewang was personally supervising it. Ouyang Shuo did not come forward to disturb him, instead returning to the manor.\n**************************************\nOn the 27th of January, the private school was opened.\nA village-level private school was mainly there to provide basic education. The teacher taught literacy, the basic thousand words or so, and then the great classics of Chinese literature. The students basically consisted of the children of the village, including Er Wazi, for a total of twelve people.\nMore specifically, Ouyang Shuo had added an additional requirement. The school had also opened an adult literacy class, teaching some literacy to those talents Ouyang Shuo wanted to cultivate.\nThose talents included the logging field manager Zhao Youfang, quarry field manager Chang Shangu and mining field manager Yuan Shaoping, as well as some civil servants. Zhang Daniu, San Gouzi, Zhao Sihu, and Li Mingliang, the sergeants of his soldier squads, all needed this training to become officers. These people didn’t know a single character.\nIn order to cultivate their talents, Ouyang Shuo had enforced this command under order of death. No matter how busy these people were, they had to be in the school for half a day, every day, to learn the basics. At the same time, he specifically told Elder Fan to monitor their progress every day, and if they were falling behind, report to him immediately. He naturally had ways to motivate the recalcitrant.\nAt the opening ceremony of the adult literacy classes, Ouyang Shuo said, “You are all very lucky. At this age, you have the chance to re-enter school. Most of you, before coming to Shanhai, were farmers. Maybe you had the dream of reading in your casual time, but attending a school was not a something you can afford during your young age.\n“Now that you are grown up, perhaps you think that reading is something that does not matter anymore. Even if you can’t read, you are still alive, living and surviving like everyone else.\n“I want to say you are wrong, wrong, wrong! The persons who came to this village is no longer the same people as you are now, the managers of the strategic resources of this territory! The things that you are doing now, and that you will do in the future, are far more important than the things you did before coming to Shanhai Village. In these important positions, to enjoy the rights you must also fulfill your duties. Therefore, to go further, you must lay a foundation. I do not wish for you to fall behind because you are illiterate, and I am going to tell you very seriously that no one is going to wait for you.\n“So, please cherish this opportunity. I can tell you very clearly that this is only a very small part of the territorial training program, just a starting point, and there will be many more advanced opportunities for future training. In time, I hope to see your faces and lecture you again.”\nThe seven people sitting there had varied attitudes. Some were listening to him, some looked like they understood, and some seemed a little muddled. In the end, it was up to them to seize their own good fortune.\nAfter the lecture, Ouyang Shuo left the podium to Fan Jin. The old man had way passed the age of ignorance and what was left behind by time was only an elder filled with wisdom. Although old, he was still filled with spirited air, his bones were still strong, and he wasn’t like the other professors, all talk and no actions. He was active and was a real scholar that teaches knowledge to the world.\nOuyang Shuo had great respect for such a scholar, happily sitting at the back of the classroom with the other students, carefully listening to the first of the adult literacy classes.\nAfter the class, Ouyang Shuo walked out of the school, heading for the commercial street district. Yesterday evening, Little Sister Mu had told him that she had finished the leather made from the king boar hide that she had been making for him, and he had to remember to come by the tailor shop.\nDuring this time period, Little Sister and her apprentices had been so busy that their feet hadn’t touched the ground. To complete a goal of five hundred sets of clothing was not an easy job.\nAlthough Qing’er was usually very playful, she was very focused and precise when she worked. Her expression was serious, and she was strict with the apprentices. Just watching her, her apprentices were afraid of her in the same manner as how mice are afraid of cats.\nOuyang Shuo had not imagined that his Little Sister had such a side to her. But, in this world, success was not accidental. Talent was important, but her own efforts and dedication and love of tailoring were the more important than only talent.\nSure enough, when Ouyang Shuo stepped inside the tailor shop, everyone’s heads were down, busily sewing the clothes on the table. He stood at the door for ten minutes, and none of them noticed him. Seeing Little Sister working so seriously, Ouyang Shuo could not help feeling soft-hearted.\nHowever, Ouyang Shuo was not prepared to be too nice to her. This Little Sister, she was really thick-skinned, and her ability to take advantage of him was also quite huge. If he spoiled her too much, Ouyang Shuo estimated that she’d become quite difficult to deal with.\n“Cough! Little sister, brother is here, and you haven’t come up to meet me, ah?” Ouyang Shuo deliberately teased her.\nLittle sister raised her head, and shot back, “Well, bad brother. Can you not see your lovely sister is busy?”\nOuyang Shuo could only change the topic. “Yesterday you told me that the leather armor you made is done, and I have stopped by to pick it up.”\n“This time I had made a gold level armor out of the leather. Oh, my brother has such a good reward!”\n“What? Gold level leather armor?” In his estimation, a silver level leather armor piece would have been quite satisfying. He really had not expected Little Sister to give him such a big surprise.\n“It is the sincere truth!” Little Mu said, taking out a set of leathers from the side. In addition to the armor set, there was a pair of dark red boots and gloves.\nOuyang Shuo took the armor and looked at it over carefully. As a whole it was black, wrapping around the whole chest and stitched together with a multi-level leather chain. Everything was made of leather, except for the metal buckles.\nThe leather had a very steady feel to it, fashionable without affecting its practical functions. The whole piece was very consistent with his preferences, Ouyang Shuo loved it and didn’t want to put it down.\nOuyang Shuo was amazed, and realized that Little Sister really had a talent in tailoring. She was not only skilled, but could personalize items to each person’s differences. He could hardly wait to see the properties of the armor.\nEvaluation: Made by senior tailor Mu Qingsi from quality 8 king boar hide. Exquisite workmanship, practical design, excellent protection.\nSure enough, 45 points of defense and 50 points of toughness, enough to ensure that without gold level weapons, it would be difficult to break it.\nSeeing Ouyang Shuo’s surprised expression, Little Sister Mu was extremely happy. “I thought of the name for the leather armor as I want it to be a good guardian for big brother.”\nWith her help, Ouyang Shuo put the leather on, and immediately felt safer. Wearing it, he would no longer have to worry about danger from arrows.\n“Yes, this is really good, our family has a good child.” At this moment, Ouyang Shuo could only appreciate Little Sister more.\n“Well, of course, people call me the Genius Girl!” Little Sister had no modesty, responding the same way to all praise.\n“Also, Big Brother, there is a set of gloves and boots, I made it from the quality 6 mutant wild boar hide. Although not as good as the armor, they are also silver class armor.” Sister Mu handed the new treasures to Ouyang Shuo.\nOuyang Shuo took the gloves and boots, looking at their properties.\nEvaluation: Made by senior Tailor Mu Qingsi from quality 6 mutant boar hide. Exquisite workmanship, practical design, excellent protection.\nEvaluation: Made by senior Tailor Mu Qingsi from quality 6 wild boar hide. Exquisite workmanship, practical design, excellent protection.\nThis was a full set of leather armor made by Mu Qingsi. Qing’er’s skill had improved quite a lot! Ouyang Shuo could not help but look at his own personal stats. Name: Qiyue Wuyi"

第二十七章
下午的时候，欧阳朔来到村庄的东南区，也就是规划中的文化教育区。 新建成的医馆、祠堂，还有正在开工建设的私塾，都在这个区域。
他先走进宋大夫的医馆，看望一下这位极好面子的老丈。 自从上次收徒风波之后，只要有时间，他都会抽时间到医馆来逛一逛。
医馆分前后两进，前面是抓药和就诊的地方，后面才是住宿的地方。 欧阳朔进来的时候，宋大夫正在给人看病。
接着，他又走进了旁边的祠堂。 村级祠堂也是两进，前面是一幢类似门楼的建筑，中间是一片广场，后面才是祠堂。
祠堂的旁边，就是妈祖庙，如今已是香火鼎盛。 山海村的村民中，有八成以上的人选择信奉妈祖。
不远处，就是正在修建的私塾。 赵得旺亲自坐镇监督，欧阳朔并没有上前打扰，而是重新返回领主府。
元月二十七日，私塾开馆授课。
村级私塾，主要以启蒙教育为主。
夫子教授大家识字，待识至千字左右后，再教读《三字经》、《百家姓》、《千字文》这样的蒙学经典。 入学的基本上都是村中的孩童，包括二娃子在内，一共有十二人。
比较特别的是，根据欧阳朔的要求。 私塾还开设了一个成人扫盲班，教那些欧阳朔准备培养的人才读书识字。
这里面，即包括像初级伐木场场长赵有方、初级采石场场长郑山炮、初级采矿场场长袁少平这样的文官，也包括骑兵队第一火火长张大牛、第二火火长三狗子、第四火火长赵四虎、第五火火长李明亮这样的武将。
为了培养他们成才，欧阳朔下了死命令。 不管有多忙，这些人每天都必须在私塾上半天的学。 同时，他还特意吩咐老夫子范进，每天对他们的学习进度进行考察。
他自然有办法收拾这些兔崽子们。 在成人扫盲班的开班仪式上，欧阳朔这样说道：“诸位，你们都很幸运。 在这样的年龄，还有机会重新走进学堂。
在你们小的时候，进私塾简直就是一件想都不敢想的事情。 现在你们长大了，反倒是觉得，读书是一件无所谓的事情。 即使是不识字，你们照样活的好好的。”
真要到了那个时候，我可以很认真的告诉你们，没有人会等你。”
“所以，请好好地珍惜这次机会。 我可以很明确地告诉你们，这只是领地培训计划的一小部分，只是一个起点。 往后，还有更多更高一级的进修机会。
坐在下面的七个人，有人听进去了，有人似懂非懂，有人懵懵懂懂。 到底如何，就要看他们自己的造化了。
欧阳朔训话结束之后，将讲台让给了范老夫子。 老夫子已经过了不惑之年，精神头倒是很足，身子骨还算硬朗，也不是那种动不动就之乎者也的酸儒、腐儒，而是真正做学问的人。
欧阳朔非常敬重这样的读书人，兴致勃勃地坐在教室后面，跟这批学员一起，认真地听了成人扫盲班的第一堂课。
下课后，欧阳朔走出私塾，朝前门商业街走去。 昨天晚上青儿就跟他提过，说是用野猪王皮缝制的皮甲已经做好，要他记得去裁缝铺取。
这段时间，青儿带着她的四名学徒，忙得脚不沾地。 要完成五百套成衣的目标，可不是个轻松的活儿。
她自己认真，对学徒同样要求严格。 听说那四名学徒见到她，就像老鼠见着猫，怕的很。 欧阳朔倒是想象不到，这位小孩心性的妹妹，还有这样的一面。
小妮子能够在这样的年纪，就已经是高级裁缝。 天赋固然重要，她自身的努力以及对裁缝技艺的执着和热爱，才是最重要的。
果然，欧阳朔走进裁缝铺的时候，她们都低着头，在工作台上忙着缝制衣服。 他在门口站了将近十分钟，都没人注意到。
看着青儿小妮子认真工作的模样，欧阳朔对她更加怜惜。 但是，表面上欧阳朔可不准备对她太好。 这妮子可是皮的很，顺杆子往上爬的本事也是不小。
“咳，青儿，大哥来了，都不来迎一迎啊？” 欧阳朔故意调侃到。
青儿抬起头，嘟着小嘴说道：“哼，坏大哥。 没看到你可爱的妹妹正在忙么。
得，欧阳朔是说不过她了，只能强行转移话题，“昨天你不是跟我说，皮甲已经做好了么，我过来取。”
“这次做出来的皮甲可是黄金级的哦，大哥要怎么奖励我呀！”
按照他的预估，能够是白银级皮甲，就已经很满意了。 没想到，这次青儿倒是真给了他一个大大的惊喜。
“货真价实，童叟无欺哦！” 青儿说着，从旁边取出一件黑色皮甲，还有一双暗红色的靴子和一对护腕。
欧阳朔将皮甲拿在手中，细细打量。 皮甲整体呈黑色，由大块甲皮用皮条缝缀在一起，而且还不是单层，而是用多层皮革连缀而成。 甲皮和甲皮的连接处，还坠着金属饰扣。
设计的即时尚，又不影响实用功能。 整个的跟欧阳朔的气质非常的相符，让他爱不释手。
欧阳朔不仅感慨，青儿这妮子在裁缝上的天赋，果然是要逆天啊。 小小年纪，不仅技艺纯熟，而且还知道根据使用者的不同，进行个性化的设计。
【评价】：高级裁缝穆青丝，利用品质为8点的野猪王皮缝制而成。 工艺精湛，设计合理，防护绝佳。
果然强大，45点的防御加上50点的韧性，足以确保黄金级以下的兵器在没有内力灌注的情况下，难以破防。
看到欧阳朔吃惊的表情，青儿显得极为的高兴。 皮甲的名字是她取的，正如她的心意，希望这件皮甲能够代替自己，好好地守护哥哥。
欧阳朔在青儿的帮助下，将皮甲穿上，立刻感觉安全了不少。 从此以后，他不用再担心被放冷箭了。
“不错，真的是太厉害了，我们家青儿果然了不起。” 此刻的欧阳朔，毫不吝啬对青儿的赞赏。
“嘻嘻，那当然咯，人家是天才少女嘛。” 青儿这妮子从来就不知道什么叫做谦虚，不管什么样的赞誉，都照单全收。
“对咯，大哥，这里还有一对护腕和一双靴子，是青儿用变异野猪皮缝制的。 虽然比不上皮甲，但是也是白银级装备的哦。”

Chapter 27 - Private School
In the afternoon, Ouyang Shuo went over to the southeast district of the village, which was the area set aside for culture and education. The newly built hospital and the ancestral hall, as well as the private school being constructed, were all in this district.
He first went to Dr. Song’s hospital and saw the happy face of the old gentleman. Since the doctor’s uproar, as long as there was time, Ouyang Shuo would take the initiative to come to the hospital and visit.
The hospital had two parts. At the front was the area to issue medicine and treat patients. At the back were accomodations. Ouyang Shuo walked in, and saw that Dr. Song was with a patient. He did not disturb them, simply greeting the doctor, and walking back out.
He then went into the shrine next door. The ancestral hall for the village also had two parts. At the front was a gatehouse, divided by a square in the middle from the true ancestral hall to the back. Because Shanhai Village was player established, the Hall was not devoted to any one clan, and the surnames of the villagers were not the same. Consequently, Ouyang Shuo chose to focus on the Yellow Emperor, the ancestor of Chinese civilization, for general ancestral worship.
Next to the ancestral hall was the Mazu temple, now wreathed in incense. More than 80% of the people of Shanhai Village had chosen to place their faith in Mazu.
Not far away, the private school was being built. Zhao Dewang was personally supervising it. Ouyang Shuo did not come forward to disturb him, instead returning to the manor.
**************************************
On the 27th of January, the private school was opened.
A village-level private school was mainly there to provide basic education. The teacher taught literacy, the basic thousand words or so, and then the great classics of Chinese literature. The students basically consisted of the children of the village, including Er Wazi, for a total of twelve people.
More specifically, Ouyang Shuo had added an additional requirement. The school had also opened an adult literacy class, teaching some literacy to those talents Ouyang Shuo wanted to cultivate.
Those talents included the logging field manager Zhao Youfang, quarry field manager Chang Shangu and mining field manager Yuan Shaoping, as well as some civil servants. Zhang Daniu, San Gouzi, Zhao Sihu, and Li Mingliang, the sergeants of his soldier squads, all needed this training to become officers. These people didn’t know a single character.
In order to cultivate their talents, Ouyang Shuo had enforced this command under order of death. No matter how busy these people were, they had to be in the school for half a day, every day, to learn the basics. At the same time, he specifically told Elder Fan to monitor their progress every day, and if they were falling behind, report to him immediately. He naturally had ways to motivate the recalcitrant.
At the opening ceremony of the adult literacy classes, Ouyang Shuo said, “You are all very lucky. At this age, you have the chance to re-enter school. Most of you, before coming to Shanhai, were farmers. Maybe you had the dream of reading in your casual time, but attending a school was not a something you can afford during your young age.
“Now that you are grown up, perhaps you think that reading is something that does not matter anymore. Even if you can’t read, you are still alive, living and surviving like everyone else.
“I want to say you are wrong, wrong, wrong! The persons who came to this village is no longer the same people as you are now, the managers of the strategic resources of this territory! The things that you are doing now, and that you will do in the future, are far more important than the things you did before coming to Shanhai Village. In these important positions, to enjoy the rights you must also fulfill your duties. Therefore, to go further, you must lay a foundation. I do not wish for you to fall behind because you are illiterate, and I am going to tell you very seriously that no one is going to wait for you.
“So, please cherish this opportunity. I can tell you very clearly that this is only a very small part of the territorial training program, just a starting point, and there will be many more advanced opportunities for future training. In time, I hope to see your faces and lecture you again.”
The seven people sitting there had varied attitudes. Some were listening to him, some looked like they understood, and some seemed a little muddled. In the end, it was up to them to seize their own good fortune.
After the lecture, Ouyang Shuo left the podium to Fan Jin. The old man had way passed the age of ignorance and what was left behind by time was only an elder filled with wisdom. Although old, he was still filled with spirited air, his bones were still strong, and he wasn’t like the other professors, all talk and no actions. He was active and was a real scholar that teaches knowledge to the world.
Ouyang Shuo had great respect for such a scholar, happily sitting at the back of the classroom with the other students, carefully listening to the first of the adult literacy classes.
After the class, Ouyang Shuo walked out of the school, heading for the commercial street district. Yesterday evening, Little Sister Mu had told him that she had finished the leather made from the king boar hide that she had been making for him, and he had to remember to come by the tailor shop.
During this time period, Little Sister and her apprentices had been so busy that their feet hadn’t touched the ground. To complete a goal of five hundred sets of clothing was not an easy job.
Although Qing’er was usually very playful, she was very focused and precise when she worked. Her expression was serious, and she was strict with the apprentices. Just watching her, her apprentices were afraid of her in the same manner as how mice are afraid of cats.
Ouyang Shuo had not imagined that his Little Sister had such a side to her. But, in this world, success was not accidental. Talent was important, but her own efforts and dedication and love of tailoring were the more important than only talent.
Sure enough, when Ouyang Shuo stepped inside the tailor shop, everyone’s heads were down, busily sewing the clothes on the table. He stood at the door for ten minutes, and none of them noticed him. Seeing Little Sister working so seriously, Ouyang Shuo could not help feeling soft-hearted.
However, Ouyang Shuo was not prepared to be too nice to her. This Little Sister, she was really thick-skinned, and her ability to take advantage of him was also quite huge. If he spoiled her too much, Ouyang Shuo estimated that she’d become quite difficult to deal with.
“Cough! Little sister, brother is here, and you haven’t come up to meet me, ah?” Ouyang Shuo deliberately teased her.
Little sister raised her head, and shot back, “Well, bad brother. Can you not see your lovely sister is busy?”
Ouyang Shuo could only change the topic. “Yesterday you told me that the leather armor you made is done, and I have stopped by to pick it up.”
“This time I had made a gold level armor out of the leather. Oh, my brother has such a good reward!”
“What? Gold level leather armor?” In his estimation, a silver level leather armor piece would have been quite satisfying. He really had not expected Little Sister to give him such a big surprise.
“It is the sincere truth!” Little Mu said, taking out a set of leathers from the side. In addition to the armor set, there was a pair of dark red boots and gloves.
Ouyang Shuo took the armor and looked at it over carefully. As a whole it was black, wrapping around the whole chest and stitched together with a multi-level leather chain. Everything was made of leather, except for the metal buckles.
The leather had a very steady feel to it, fashionable without affecting its practical functions. The whole piece was very consistent with his preferences, Ouyang Shuo loved it and didn’t want to put it down.
Ouyang Shuo was amazed, and realized that Little Sister really had a talent in tailoring. She was not only skilled, but could personalize items to each person’s differences. He could hardly wait to see the properties of the armor.
Evaluation: Made by senior tailor Mu Qingsi from quality 8 king boar hide. Exquisite workmanship, practical design, excellent protection.
Sure enough, 45 points of defense and 50 points of toughness, enough to ensure that without gold level weapons, it would be difficult to break it.
Seeing Ouyang Shuo’s surprised expression, Little Sister Mu was extremely happy. “I thought of the name for the leather armor as I want it to be a good guardian for big brother.”
With her help, Ouyang Shuo put the leather on, and immediately felt safer. Wearing it, he would no longer have to worry about danger from arrows.
“Yes, this is really good, our family has a good child.” At this moment, Ouyang Shuo could only appreciate Little Sister more.
“Well, of course, people call me the Genius Girl!” Little Sister had no modesty, responding the same way to all praise.
“Also, Big Brother, there is a set of gloves and boots, I made it from the quality 6 mutant wild boar hide. Although not as good as the armor, they are also silver class armor.” Sister Mu handed the new treasures to Ouyang Shuo.
Ouyang Shuo took the gloves and boots, looking at their properties.
Evaluation: Made by senior Tailor Mu Qingsi from quality 6 mutant boar hide. Exquisite workmanship, practical design, excellent protection.
Evaluation: Made by senior Tailor Mu Qingsi from quality 6 wild boar hide. Exquisite workmanship, practical design, excellent protection.
This was a full set of leather armor made by Mu Qingsi. Qing’er’s skill had improved quite a lot! Ouyang Shuo could not help but look at his own personal stats. Name: Qiyue Wuyi

"value": "Chapter 252: Reappearance Of The Evil Banner The Spirit Treasure Tower resembled a mountain with great brilliance. Twisting runes covered the steep cliffs to the point where divine intents would be destroyed instantly.\nDespite repeatedly cursing Feng Feiyun in his mind, Bi Ningshuai still entered the tower with a bizarre movement technique. He had a pair of spirit clogs that allowed him to step on these formations as if they were flat ground. He quickly made it up the steep cliff and entered one of the doors.\nEven the formations couldn’t stop him from going inside.\n“That’s an expert for you.” Feng Feiyun commented while watching from the bamboo forest. This young man’s origin must not be so simple. His methods were incredible, so he must have learned it from some amazing manuals.\nFor any cultivator, even if they didn’t have a master, they would still have a legacy or system to learn from. It was not that there weren’t any innate geniuses that could learn the dao on their own, but their number was even fewer than Grand Historical Geniuses…\nThis dark-skinned youth’s escape method was brilliant and slippery like a loach. Even first level Heaven’s Mandate cultivators might not be able to catch him. It was perfect to have someone like him try to steal the Cloak of Invisibility.\nFeng Feiyun could feel several hidden auras within the bamboo forest. They were all top-level experts guarding the tower. The moment anything abnormal happens, they would immediately come out of their closed cultivation.\n“Whoosh!” A breeze blew by along with a large flurry of bamboo leaves. There was a cold chill within, creating a layer of black frost within this mist.\nThis black mist quietly came from the forest and flew towards Feng Feiyun like a group of ghosts.\nA scaled claw with a metallic shimmer suddenly reached out from the frost and went straight for his neck.\n“Hmph!” Feng Feiyun’s spiritual sense was more than ninety times that of an ordinary person, so he had detected it much earlier. He didn’t bother looking back and only pointed behind him. A black pillar shot out from his fingertip and penetrated the claw, turning it back into mist.\nSuddenly, over ten more claws reached out from this black mist. It was extremely bizarre since they were all the size of a human. They shrieked through the forest. Anyone would be creeped out with their hair standing on end.\nFeng Feiyun still didn’t turn around and only unleashed another palm attack. A crimson cloud shot out from his palm with seven qilin images. All of them were on fire and they incinerated the black claws, turning the mist into nothingness. This was the technique created by fusing the power of the qilins and the Crimson Fire Art. It could destroy all evil arts in this world.\n“You are quite bold to come cause trouble at the Spirit Treasure Tower!” Feng Feiyun noticed that these techniques were from the specter branch of the Yin World’s Three Evils.\nOutside of specters themselves, only treasure masters who specialize in evil spirits could use this type of energy.\nThe treasure master was the most bizarre job in the world, so it was naturally divided into good and evil. Their main goal was to hunt for treasures for clans and sects. However, the evil spirit treasure masters were quite scary. They specialized in traveling through ancient tombs and even to the Yin and Yang Worlds. Their schemes were cruel and sinister. Others would shudder after hearing about them.\nNo one answered him, only an evil banner could be seen.\nThis evil banner came from the bamboo forest as well. It was completely black with ghost runes embroidered on its surface. This entire region was encompassed within the banner, so it was sealed off. The seniors on guard here couldn’t detect the anomaly that was happening.\nThe fluttering banner suppressed the area and even ground some old bamboo trees into powder.\n“The Grand Wind Banner!” Feng Feiyun’s eyes turned serious. He recognized this evil banner. It was a spirit treasure that had been passed down for thousands of years from the First Heaven Immortal Gate. It was a murderous artifact, their defining and defensive treasure.\nIt was originally in the hands of the first disciple there, Bu Tianya. Unfortunately, he was ill-fated and died to the hands of his own fiance, Ji Cangyue. The banner disappeared afterward.\nAt that time, only three people were present: Feng Feiyun, Ji Cangyue, and the mysterious master. Thus, the banner was either taken by her or the master.\n“Boom!” A ray of light from what seemed to be a dark sun was channeled into the form of a black lightning bolt. It emerged from the banner with the thickness of an arm. However, a huge stone saber was thrown forward to destroy it.\nEven though the black lightning bolt from a spirit treasure was quite powerful, it had no effect on the stone saber.\n“Boom!” The saber went back into Feng Feiyun’s hands and flew out again with the intention of splitting the evil banner.\nThe banner was completely unfolded and acted as a divine scroll. It directly swept through the stone saber, pinning it to the ground with only the hilt exposed.\n“Feng Feiyun, today will be your funeral.” Ji Cangyue’s voice came from the bamboo forest, but she was nowhere in sight.\nSo it was her!\nPeople might find it strange that she could appear in the territory of the treasure tower, but not Feng Feiyun. He wanted to see what kind of tricks this scornful woman could take out.\nAfter eating the spirit pill of the Spirit Treasure Tower Lord, he was able to cultivate his Heavenly Phoenix Gaze to the void level. At that time, he had already known that Murong Ta was Ji Cangyue and had some guesses as to why she chose to stay by his side. However, he didn’t expose her and allowed her to play her game.\nBecause of this, ever since he made it to the sixth floor of the Immeasurable Tower, he didn’t go to see Murong Ta. He was waiting for her to become impatient and take action first.\nHe wasn’t afraid of her trying to kill him directly, only the possible devious schemes that she might devise. Her offensive prowess right now was within his expectations.\nHe teased: “Oh? So it is Little Sis Cangyue, long time no see. Did you miss me?”\n“I want you dead!” Her voice was awfully cold and seemed to be ringing next to his ears.\nHer resentment was deep like a female ghost coming to take Feng Feiyun’s life. The Evil Banner rose up to the sky and descended straight down with a black wave that resembled a great flood.\nThe power of this spirit treasure had been completely activated. Even a grand achievement God Base would be crushed to smithereens.\nShe was a Death Spirit Child from the Ji Clan and had trained to be an Evil Spirit Treasure Master. She ended up refining the Grand Wind Banner into an evil banner.\nFeng Feiyun took out the Infinite Spirit Ring in order to stop the evil force from the banner. Flames shot out of his eyes in the form of the Heavenly Phoenix Gaze in order to find Ji Cangyue.\n“Rumble!” The ground shook for a bit, and an old skeleton crawled out of the ground. Its flesh had all rotted away, but the hair on its head was still black. It was quite a creepy sight.\nThese were the remains of a random predecessor of this tower. The bones were even harder than steel even though they had been buried for decades. Today, Ji Cangyue used her treasure master art to summon the skeleton.\n“Hey, young lady, disturbing an elder from their slumber is a very immoral thing to do. You will be cursed!” One of Feng Feiyun’s legs was gripped by this skeleton. If he didn’t recall the saber in time to sever this arm, his leg might have turned into a puddle of blood already.\nThis young lady was going all out with very strange techniques. Feng Feiyun had to become serious instead of underestimating her. If he were to fall into her hands, it would be a very miserable fate.\nShe sneered: “How can an animal like you know anything about what’s moral?”\n“Cough! I might be an animal, but I’m still better than you who was pushed down by an animal…”\n“You have become stronger, but there is still quite a gap between us!” Feng Feiyun attacked with a claw technique. There was a ray of black, red, cyan, and white winding around his arm. This was the combination of the Dark Water, Crimson Fire, Verdant Wood, and Platinum Metal Arts.\nJi Cangyue’s ten techniques couldn’t stop this claw from Feng Feiyun. He gripped her shoulder with the intention of capturing her.\n“Poof!” Blood spilled from her shoulder. It was caused by her own spirit treasure. She would rather lose an arm before being captured by Feng Feiyun again.\nHis fingers became numb and stained with blood. He had no choice but to retract his hand.\n“Swoosh!” She leaped back into the bamboo forest in order to evade him. Her shoulder was broken and almost severed, revealing her jade-white skin covered in a loose black robe. There was a trail of blood still bleeding from the wound.\n“You are still so cruel to yourself.” He touched the blood on his fingers and felt its warmth.\n“Hmph! Still a thousand times better than falling into your hands.” She recalled the banner and rolled it up before holding it in her hand. She was already standing far away in the forest.\nShe stood there arrogantly with her black hair flowing straight down. It was a bit messy due to the blowing wind. Her eyes were particularly cold like a sword piercing straight through Feng Feiyun: “I can’t kill you today because my cultivation is not high enough. Wait until my Evil Spirit arts reach great attainment, I’ll truly make you suffer then.”\nShe turned into a black cloud and ran away into the forest.\nFeng Feiyun declared: “Haha, you think you can escape? Obediently come back and be my slave!”\nThis Ji girl was too ruthless, so he couldn’t afford to let her leave. If she could actually cultivate these evil arts successfully, then she would become much more problematic and difficult to deal with.\nFeng Feiyun was even faster than her; it was as if he was riding the wind. He gave chase right away and stretched out his claw again, attempting to catch her at all cost."

第四十三章 灵宝塔就如一座神山，霞光万道，陡峭的崖壁上刻满了扭曲的阵纹，就是是神识都会被绞碎。
毕宁帅虽然在骂娘，但是却依旧进入了灵宝塔，他身法诡异，脚踩一双灵屐，在阵法之上踩过，竟然如履平地，很快攀上了半天崖壁，溜进了一座古石塔门之中。
阵纹无法将他拦住，躲过了绝杀。
风飞云站在离灵宝塔不远处的竹林之中，心头为之感慨，这个黑脸少年的来历不可能那么简单，所用出的手段都相当高明，隐约间可以看到天功宝典级别的影子。
任何一个修士，就算没有师傅，也肯定有道统传承，自悟天道的天才不是没有，但是实在太少，比史诗级别的天才还要少。
这个黑脸少年逃命的功夫相当不一般，滑溜得就像泥鳅，就算是天命第一重的修士，都未必能够将他给擒住，让他去盗隐蚕纱罗，简直再合适不过了。
风飞云留在了外面，能够感觉到，竹林之中有好几股潜藏的气息，个个都是绝顶强者，是守护灵宝塔的前辈，一旦灵宝塔中传来异动，这些人瞬间就会破关而出。
呼呼！ 一阵阴风吹来，有一大片竹叶飞在其中，寒气在竹叶之上，冻上了一层黑色的冰霜。
一片淡淡的黑色的雾气，悄然无声地从竹林深处吹出，向着风飞云轻轻扑来，就像一群阴灵在徐徐的接近。
一只手爪豁然从黑雾之中伸出，上面长着细小的黑鳞，带着金属一般的流光，向着风飞云的脖子捏去。
风飞云灵觉如今已经是常人的九十多倍，早就将之察觉，根本就不回头，直接向着身后点出一指，一道黑色的光柱从指尖飞出，将那黑色的鳞爪给洞穿，化为了一片雾云。
蓦地，又有十多道黑色的鳞爪从云雾间伸出，诡异之极，每一道鳞爪都有人的身躯那么大，在竹林之中呼啸，若是在晚上看到这一幕，简直能够将人的头发都给吓立起来。
风飞云依旧没有转身，只是向着身后拍出了一掌，一片赤红的火云便从手掌之上飞出，火云中有七头麒牛的虚影沉陷，全身都在烧热熊熊的火焰，将所有的黑色鳞爪和雾气都给引燃，烧成了虚无。 这是赤火术与麒牛之力相结合之后的招数，能够破尽世间一切邪法。
风飞云发现对方所用的招数，竟然有几分阴界三邪的气息，三邪之中的鬼邪之气。
能够用出鬼邪之气的，除了鬼邪，就只有邪灵寻宝师才能做到。
寻宝师，乃是天下最诡异、最边缘的一种职业，自然也分正邪，正派寻宝师的主职是为各大修仙门派和家族寻觅矿藏和宝物，但是邪灵寻宝师就相当可怕了，专门行走在上古大墓之中，穿梭在阴阳两界之间，手段极其毒辣和恐怖，让人闻之生寒。
没有人回应他，回应他的是一面魔旗。
这面魔旗也是从竹林的深处飞出，漆黑如魔障，铁布之上鬼纹交织，将这一片竹林都给包裹在魔旗之中，封锁了天地，让周围的那些守塔前辈都无法察觉到这里的异常。
魔旗猎猎，席天卷地，镇压得古竹化为粉。
风飞云双目一凝，将这一面魔旗给认出，正是天一仙门的一件传承千年的灵器，乃是镇门宝物级别的杀伐神器。
原本掌握在天一仙门大弟子步天涯的手中，但是步天涯这悲催帝，却死在了自己未婚妻纪沧月的手中，从那以后大风旗就神秘的消失了。
当时只有三个人在场，风飞云、纪沧月、神秘主人，大风旗不是被纪沧月取走，就是被神秘主人给收取。
“轰！” 一道如同黑曰般的灵器战芒被引动，从魔旗之上凝聚出一道黑色的闪电，足有人的手臂那么粗，一柄巨大的石刀飞了出去，将那电芒劈碎。
灵器打出的黑色闪电虽然恐怖，但是却无法对白石战刀造成半分影响。
白石战刀飞回了风飞云的手中，然后又被脱手祭出，想要将魔旗给斩破。
魔旗完全展开，如一张古老的神卷，直接将白石战刀给扇飞了出去，倒插到了地底，仅露出一个刀柄在外面。
“风飞云，今天就是你的死期。” 纪沧月的声音在竹林之中响起，但是却看不到她的身影。
果然是她！
纪沧月居然会出现在灵宝塔的地域，实在有些出人意料，但是风飞云却丝毫都不诧异，想要看看这怨妇小妞，又能闹出什么花样来。
风飞云在服下了灵宝塔主的那一枚灵丹，将凤凰天眼修炼到洞虚境界的时候，就已经知道慕容拓就是纪沧月，对于她为何会潜伏到自己的身边也有几分猜测，但是风飞云却并没有将她拆穿，既然你要装，那就让你装。
也正是因为这个原因，所以在闯过无量塔第六层之后，风飞云就再也没有去找过慕容拓，就是想要让他装不下去，主动出手。
风飞云不怕纪沧月要杀他，就怕她玩阴的，此刻，她出手，倒也在风飞云的预料之中。
“原来是沧月妹子，好久不见，想我了没？”
“我想你死！” 纪沧月声音很冷沉，就像在风飞云的耳边响起。
她的怨气很重，就像一个女鬼来找风飞云索命，魔旗当空悬，直冲下来，大片的黑芒，就如神海上的浪涛。
灵器的战威已经被完全激活，十分骇人，就算是神基大圆满境界的修士，都要被碾压成齑粉。
纪沧月乃是纪家的死灵子，修炼成邪灵寻宝师，将大风旗祭炼成了一张魔旗。
风飞云也将淼鬼扳指给祭出，抗衡大风旗的魔威，而他的双目也冲出两道火焰，施展出凤凰天眼，想要将纪沧月给找出来。
“轰隆隆！” 地面上一阵抖动，一巨苍老的白骨从地底爬出，身上的血肉都以烂尽，但是头上的头发却依旧漆黑，看到之后，让人毛骨悚然。
这也不知是灵宝塔的那位前辈的遗骸，白骨比之钢铁都要坚硬，本来都已经埋骨数十年，但是却被纪沧月使用邪灵寻宝术，将他从地底唤出。
“喂，纪小妞，打扰前辈沉眠，这是不道德的事，会断子绝孙的。” 风飞云的一条腿被那一具白骨给捏住，若不是他及时将白石战刀给召回，将白骨的手臂给震飞，说不定这条腿，就已经化为了血泥。
这纪家小妞还真够辣，手段很诡异，让风飞云也不得不慎重起来，若是阴沟里翻船，落入她的手中那就惨了。
“风飞云，你这禽兽，也知道道德二字？” 纪沧月冷笑。
“你又变强了，但是和我还有不小的差距！”
风飞云一爪拍出，有黑色、赤色、青色、白色的光华在手臂之上缠绕，乃是黑水术，赤火术，青木术，白金术。
纪沧月打出的数十道秘术，根本就挡不住风飞云的这一爪，被轻易破去，风飞云的手爪将她的香肩给捏住，想要将她给擒住。 噗！
一道血痕在她肩上裂开，被她自己的灵气给冲撞，就算是失去一臂，也不想再次落入风飞云的手中。
风飞云五指发麻，上面沾着鲜血，不得不收回手。 唰！
她穿着宽大的黑袍，倒飞了回去，落到了竹林的深处，远远的和风飞云避退开，肩膀被抓碎了一块，露出白玉一般的香肩，上面有一道血痕划过，还在滴血。
“对自己都这么狠？” 风飞云摸了摸手指之上的血液，感觉到有些温热。
“哼，总比落入你的手中好上千百倍。” 纪沧月将大风旗收了回去，裹了起来，握在手中，远远的站在林立的竹林中。
她身姿孤傲，黑色的长发笔直的垂落，被风吹得凌乱，只是她的眼神却格外的冰冷，如剑一般的笔直的盯着风飞云，“今曰杀不了你，只怪我修为还不够高，等我邪灵之法大乘，必定让你生不如死。”
她化为一片黑色的云雾，向着竹林深处退去，打算逃走。
“哈哈，你还逃得了吗？ 乖乖回来做我女奴，天天给我暖被窝。”
这纪家小妞实在太阴狠，不能再放她离开，若是真让她修炼成功了邪灵寻宝师的无上神通，到时想要对付她就麻烦。
风飞云速度更快，犹如踏风而行，从后面直追了上去，再次伸出一爪，探入了黑色的雾气之中，要将她擒回来，不能再放她离去。

Chapter 252: Reappearance Of The Evil Banner The Spirit Treasure Tower resembled a mountain with great brilliance. Twisting runes covered the steep cliffs to the point where divine intents would be destroyed instantly.
Despite repeatedly cursing Feng Feiyun in his mind, Bi Ningshuai still entered the tower with a bizarre movement technique. He had a pair of spirit clogs that allowed him to step on these formations as if they were flat ground. He quickly made it up the steep cliff and entered one of the doors.
Even the formations couldn’t stop him from going inside.
“That’s an expert for you.” Feng Feiyun commented while watching from the bamboo forest. This young man’s origin must not be so simple. His methods were incredible, so he must have learned it from some amazing manuals.
For any cultivator, even if they didn’t have a master, they would still have a legacy or system to learn from. It was not that there weren’t any innate geniuses that could learn the dao on their own, but their number was even fewer than Grand Historical Geniuses…
This dark-skinned youth’s escape method was brilliant and slippery like a loach. Even first level Heaven’s Mandate cultivators might not be able to catch him. It was perfect to have someone like him try to steal the Cloak of Invisibility.
Feng Feiyun could feel several hidden auras within the bamboo forest. They were all top-level experts guarding the tower. The moment anything abnormal happens, they would immediately come out of their closed cultivation.
“Whoosh!” A breeze blew by along with a large flurry of bamboo leaves. There was a cold chill within, creating a layer of black frost within this mist.
This black mist quietly came from the forest and flew towards Feng Feiyun like a group of ghosts.
A scaled claw with a metallic shimmer suddenly reached out from the frost and went straight for his neck.
“Hmph!” Feng Feiyun’s spiritual sense was more than ninety times that of an ordinary person, so he had detected it much earlier. He didn’t bother looking back and only pointed behind him. A black pillar shot out from his fingertip and penetrated the claw, turning it back into mist.
Suddenly, over ten more claws reached out from this black mist. It was extremely bizarre since they were all the size of a human. They shrieked through the forest. Anyone would be creeped out with their hair standing on end.
Feng Feiyun still didn’t turn around and only unleashed another palm attack. A crimson cloud shot out from his palm with seven qilin images. All of them were on fire and they incinerated the black claws, turning the mist into nothingness. This was the technique created by fusing the power of the qilins and the Crimson Fire Art. It could destroy all evil arts in this world.
“You are quite bold to come cause trouble at the Spirit Treasure Tower!” Feng Feiyun noticed that these techniques were from the specter branch of the Yin World’s Three Evils.
Outside of specters themselves, only treasure masters who specialize in evil spirits could use this type of energy.
The treasure master was the most bizarre job in the world, so it was naturally divided into good and evil. Their main goal was to hunt for treasures for clans and sects. However, the evil spirit treasure masters were quite scary. They specialized in traveling through ancient tombs and even to the Yin and Yang Worlds. Their schemes were cruel and sinister. Others would shudder after hearing about them.
No one answered him, only an evil banner could be seen.
This evil banner came from the bamboo forest as well. It was completely black with ghost runes embroidered on its surface. This entire region was encompassed within the banner, so it was sealed off. The seniors on guard here couldn’t detect the anomaly that was happening.
The fluttering banner suppressed the area and even ground some old bamboo trees into powder.
“The Grand Wind Banner!” Feng Feiyun’s eyes turned serious. He recognized this evil banner. It was a spirit treasure that had been passed down for thousands of years from the First Heaven Immortal Gate. It was a murderous artifact, their defining and defensive treasure.
It was originally in the hands of the first disciple there, Bu Tianya. Unfortunately, he was ill-fated and died to the hands of his own fiance, Ji Cangyue. The banner disappeared afterward.
At that time, only three people were present: Feng Feiyun, Ji Cangyue, and the mysterious master. Thus, the banner was either taken by her or the master.
“Boom!” A ray of light from what seemed to be a dark sun was channeled into the form of a black lightning bolt. It emerged from the banner with the thickness of an arm. However, a huge stone saber was thrown forward to destroy it.
Even though the black lightning bolt from a spirit treasure was quite powerful, it had no effect on the stone saber.
“Boom!” The saber went back into Feng Feiyun’s hands and flew out again with the intention of splitting the evil banner.
The banner was completely unfolded and acted as a divine scroll. It directly swept through the stone saber, pinning it to the ground with only the hilt exposed.
“Feng Feiyun, today will be your funeral.” Ji Cangyue’s voice came from the bamboo forest, but she was nowhere in sight.
So it was her!
People might find it strange that she could appear in the territory of the treasure tower, but not Feng Feiyun. He wanted to see what kind of tricks this scornful woman could take out.
After eating the spirit pill of the Spirit Treasure Tower Lord, he was able to cultivate his Heavenly Phoenix Gaze to the void level. At that time, he had already known that Murong Ta was Ji Cangyue and had some guesses as to why she chose to stay by his side. However, he didn’t expose her and allowed her to play her game.
Because of this, ever since he made it to the sixth floor of the Immeasurable Tower, he didn’t go to see Murong Ta. He was waiting for her to become impatient and take action first.
He wasn’t afraid of her trying to kill him directly, only the possible devious schemes that she might devise. Her offensive prowess right now was within his expectations.
He teased: “Oh? So it is Little Sis Cangyue, long time no see. Did you miss me?”
“I want you dead!” Her voice was awfully cold and seemed to be ringing next to his ears.
Her resentment was deep like a female ghost coming to take Feng Feiyun’s life. The Evil Banner rose up to the sky and descended straight down with a black wave that resembled a great flood.
The power of this spirit treasure had been completely activated. Even a grand achievement God Base would be crushed to smithereens.
She was a Death Spirit Child from the Ji Clan and had trained to be an Evil Spirit Treasure Master. She ended up refining the Grand Wind Banner into an evil banner.
Feng Feiyun took out the Infinite Spirit Ring in order to stop the evil force from the banner. Flames shot out of his eyes in the form of the Heavenly Phoenix Gaze in order to find Ji Cangyue.
“Rumble!” The ground shook for a bit, and an old skeleton crawled out of the ground. Its flesh had all rotted away, but the hair on its head was still black. It was quite a creepy sight.
These were the remains of a random predecessor of this tower. The bones were even harder than steel even though they had been buried for decades. Today, Ji Cangyue used her treasure master art to summon the skeleton.
“Hey, young lady, disturbing an elder from their slumber is a very immoral thing to do. You will be cursed!” One of Feng Feiyun’s legs was gripped by this skeleton. If he didn’t recall the saber in time to sever this arm, his leg might have turned into a puddle of blood already.
This young lady was going all out with very strange techniques. Feng Feiyun had to become serious instead of underestimating her. If he were to fall into her hands, it would be a very miserable fate.
She sneered: “How can an animal like you know anything about what’s moral?”
“Cough! I might be an animal, but I’m still better than you who was pushed down by an animal…”
“You have become stronger, but there is still quite a gap between us!” Feng Feiyun attacked with a claw technique. There was a ray of black, red, cyan, and white winding around his arm. This was the combination of the Dark Water, Crimson Fire, Verdant Wood, and Platinum Metal Arts.
Ji Cangyue’s ten techniques couldn’t stop this claw from Feng Feiyun. He gripped her shoulder with the intention of capturing her.
“Poof!” Blood spilled from her shoulder. It was caused by her own spirit treasure. She would rather lose an arm before being captured by Feng Feiyun again.
His fingers became numb and stained with blood. He had no choice but to retract his hand.
“Swoosh!” She leaped back into the bamboo forest in order to evade him. Her shoulder was broken and almost severed, revealing her jade-white skin covered in a loose black robe. There was a trail of blood still bleeding from the wound.
“You are still so cruel to yourself.” He touched the blood on his fingers and felt its warmth.
“Hmph! Still a thousand times better than falling into your hands.” She recalled the banner and rolled it up before holding it in her hand. She was already standing far away in the forest.
She stood there arrogantly with her black hair flowing straight down. It was a bit messy due to the blowing wind. Her eyes were particularly cold like a sword piercing straight through Feng Feiyun: “I can’t kill you today because my cultivation is not high enough. Wait until my Evil Spirit arts reach great attainment, I’ll truly make you suffer then.”
She turned into a black cloud and ran away into the forest.
Feng Feiyun declared: “Haha, you think you can escape? Obediently come back and be my slave!”
This Ji girl was too ruthless, so he couldn’t afford to let her leave. If she could actually cultivate these evil arts successfully, then she would become much more problematic and difficult to deal with.
Feng Feiyun was even faster than her; it was as if he was riding the wind. He gave chase right away and stretched out his claw again, attempting to catch her at all cost.

"value": "Chapter 178 - Table and Mud\nWhite Horse tower. \"I wonder just what kind of accounting Marquis Ye wants?\" Zhang San inclined back on his chair, not concealing the mockery and disdain on his face at all. He looked at Ye Qingyu with a smile that was not a smile.\nThe person behind him was Zhao Ruyun, standing as straight as a spear. His lips were also faintly curled.\nAs part of the younger generation among the allocation officers of the military supply department, Zhao Ruyun was greatly admired by his superior, Zhang San. Due to the fact he understood Zhang San’s personality completely, Zhao Ruyun was extremely clear that when such an expression appeared on his superior’s face, someone was going to be in deep, troubled waters.\nHe stared coldly at Ye Qingyu.\nHe had always awaited the moment when Ye Qingyu's misfortune would come.\nOpposite them.\nYe Qingyu had a faint and calm smile.\nAs if he had not noticed the mockery within Zhang San's tone at all, the young man said seriously, \"The accounting that I want is very simple. Whoever is behind the schemes against the White Horse tower, they will admit it and accept military discipline. Using the soldier's pay to create a plot to frame someone is a very serious offense against the laws of the army. They cannot be spared.\"\nHearing this, Zhang San opened his mouth and laughed.\nBehind him the mockery on Zhao Ruyun's face became even more evident. He stared at Ye Qingyu like he was looking at a retard.\n\"What if I said the person behind all the plots and schemes was me?\" Zhang San's feet were on the table, casually and arrogantly shifting them about. He made the entire table creak and squeak, moving them about. He lifted his head to look at Ye Qingyu.\nYe Qingyu’s gaze was straight and direct as he looked into Zhang San's eyes, without any shred of fear whatsoever, \"What difference does it make?\"\nHis eyes were filled with contempt and disdain.\nIn that moment, Ye Qingyu's gaze represented far too much coldness. Out of the things held in the gaze, the thing that pierced Zhao Ruyun's self-dignity the most was the fact that it was as if Ye Qingyu was saying 'just who do you think you are, that you have the right to speak here?’\nThe atmosphere was slightly heavy.\nZhao Ruyun looked at Ye Qingyu's expression carefully. After confirming that the young man in front of him was not making a joke, he smiled and nodded his head.\n\"Being young is really great, with hot blood in your heart, doing things without care. Such new people do things without fear at all. Many times, this really makes one envious, however… young man, there are some matters that one cannot solve just by having hot blood in your chest. I have seen far too many stubborn little fellows like you. But ultimately they have either became corpses on the battlefield or have turned into trashes who remain silent.”\nSaying this, Zhang San took his feet off the table.\n\"Just like this table. The material is far too hard. If it is not able to be flexible, once it encounters some pressure, it is easily destroyed.\" As he spoke, the stone table slightly quivered. Without any sound, it suddenly transformed into a pile of white powder. Without knowing when, Zhang San’s exceptional inner yuan had already crushed it into dust.\nSuch technique was extremely exquisite.\nAccording to rumours, the [Worry of Ghosts] Zhang San, was not only the head of the supply department, but he was also an exceptional martial artist. It was said that ten years ago, he had long entered the Bitter Sea stage.\nA smile appeared on the face of Zhao Ruyun. He was rejoicing in Ye Qingyu's upcoming predicament.\nHe nearly burst out laughing.\nHaha, just how can you, Ye Qingyu, compete with Head Zhang?\nWith his position and his background in the great [Army of Youyan Pass], Zhang San was definitely an officer of great contribution, achieving countless deeds. When these achievements were placed together, it was able to form a chainmail of protection. Ye Qingyu had not even been in Youyan Pass for three months, just what right did he have? He was far, far from being enough to go against him.\nComparing martial strength, Head Zhang was already at the Bitter Sea stage tens of years ago. And as for Ye Qingyu, he was only a mere Spirit spring stage, the difference was tens of thousands of kilometers apart.\nFrom these two important indicators of power, Ye Qingyu was far too lacking. No matter how much dog shit luck you have that you were able to become the person that the military wanted to build the model example of a heroic soldier of, it would not be enough. With the large scale propaganda done, there were some special political meanings behind Ye Qingyu. If not for that, why would Head Zhang still have the mood to waste time chatting with you. He would long have tied him up and hung him on the [Punishment Pillars] outside the supply department. After being hung for ten days and night, at that time he would definitely submit.\nYe Qingyu looked at the white rock powder on the floor and remained silent for a moment.\nNamely when Zhao Ruyun felt that the unfortunate patrolling sword envoy was about to submit, Ye Qingyu suddenly spoke.\n\"You have to pay for it,\" He said.\n\"What?\" Zhang San was taken aback.\nYe Qingyu said seriously, \"You've broken my table, pay for it.\"\nHe had already predicted, under his pressure and threat, what sort of reaction this young patrolling sword envoy would have— There should be mainly two reactions. He would either remain silent and submit or forcefully resist to the end. But he would never have imagined that Ye Qingyu would say such words.\nPay for my table?\nWas he crazy?\nWas this a matter concerning a table?\nWas the main point of this conversation whether or not he would pay for the table?\nZhang San felt that he was being mocked.\nHe looked at Ye Qingyu with a shred of anger.\nAt this moment, Zhang San had an impulse to burst out laughing.\nHe suddenly felt that the reason that this young patrolling sword envoy had always taken such a hard stance, evidently knowing of his protective nature, yet still taking action against Zhao Ruyun, was not really the fact that he was the type to fight for justice and righteousness. It was merely because this little brat had mental problems.\nHis brain had problems, therefore he could not discern the severity of the situation.\nA person with a normal mindset would absolutely not come provoke him after understanding the benefits and costs involved.\nZhang San took out a piece of gold from his inter spatial ring and threw it to the feet of Ye Qingyu. \"A stone table is worth a tael of silver. This piece of gold is worth two hundred taels of silver. I'll give this to you, you don't have to give me change. The money left over you can save, in case you knock into something when you go out, or get beaten up by someone. In that case, you can at least buy some medicine.”\nThis was a bare and naked threat.\nYe Qingyu looked at the gold near his feet, then looked towards the Zhang San coldly sneering. He had the impression that the person sitting opposite him was not a high ranking military officer holding great power in the [Army of Youyan Pass] but rather a ruffian holding people ransom on the streets.\nFor such a person to be able to assume the position of the head of the supply department, was really a strange matter.\nAfter thinking it over, Ye Qingyu extended his hand and activated his inner yuan. A suction force appeared from his palm.\nThis piece of gold flew to his hand.\nThe moment it touched his hand, Ye Qingyu was about to say something when an abnormal change occurred— suddenly, an incomparably hot aura exploded from this piece of gold.

白马塔中。
“不知道叶侯爷想要一个什么样的交代呢？” 张三斜倚在石椅上，脸上带着毫不掩饰的嘲讽和讥诮，似笑非笑地看着叶青羽。
在他的身后，笔直如标枪一般站立的赵如云，嘴角也微微地翘起。
作为辎重部调拨官之中的少壮派，赵如云也颇得张三这个顶头上司的欣赏，因此也对张三的一些脾性极为了解，赵如云心中非常清楚，当顶头上司的脸上，出现那种表情的时候，就意味着，有人要倒霉了。
他冷眼看着叶青羽。
他在等待着叶青羽倒霉的那一刻到来。
对面。
叶青羽淡然地笑了笑。
仿佛是丝毫没有察觉到张三口气之中的调侃，少年认真地道：“我要的交代，很简单，谁在背后耍花枪设计陷害白马塔的人，谁就主动站出来接受军法制裁，以军饷为圈套设计陷害他人，这是非常严重的触犯军法行径，不可饶恕。”
张三闻言，裂开嘴笑了笑。
他身后，赵如云更是讥诮地笑着，像是看白痴一样看着叶青羽。
“如果你口中那个背后耍花枪的人，就是我呢？” 张三的脚搭在桌子上，恣意嚣张地晃动着，带动着整张桌子都咯噔噔地晃动了起来，他仰头看着叶青羽，口吻之中有一种淡淡的戏谑。
叶青羽目光笔直，盯着张三的眼睛，没有丝毫的畏惧，道：“有什么区别吗？”
目光之中，充满了鄙夷和不屑。
赵如云在这一瞬间，有一种又惊又怒的挫败感。 叶青羽的目光在那一瞬间表达了太多的寒意，而其中最直接也最刺痛赵如云自尊心的一种含义，就是你算是什么东西，也配在这儿说话？
气氛有一点点的沉默。
张三仔细地看着叶青羽的表情，确认眼前这个年轻人并不是在哗众取宠的开玩笑之后，他笑着点了点头。
“年轻真好，心中有热血，做事无顾忌，这种愣头青一般的无谓，很多时候，也会让人羡慕呢，不过……年轻人，有些事情并不是一腔热血能够解决的，像是你这样固执的小家伙，我见得多了，但最后不是成为了战场上的尸体，就是变得沉默颓废，才华迅速黯然，夹着尾巴厮混。”
说到这里，张三的脚从桌子上撤回来。
“就像是这张桌子，材质太硬，如果不能柔软一点，一旦遇到压力，就容易碎掉。” 随着他的声音落下，石桌微微一颤，无声无息之中突然化作了一堆如同面粉一般的白色粉末，竟是不知道什么时候，被张三以卓绝的内元震碎了。
这一手功夫，的确是高明到了极点。
传说之中的【鬼见愁】张三，不仅仅是辎重部的部首，更是一位武道实力卓绝的强者，据说他早在十年之前，就已经跨入了苦海境。
赵如云脸上，露出一丝幸灾乐祸的笑意。
他差点儿笑出声来。
看见了吧，这桌子的下场。
呵呵，你叶青羽凭什么和张部首斗？ 论官职地位和在幽燕大军中的资历，张部首是军中元勋，立功无数，光是各种勋章，串起来都可以组成一件锁子甲，而你叶青羽不过到幽燕军中两三个月，有什么资格？ 你远远不如。
论武道实力，张部首十数年之前，就是苦海境强者，而你叶青羽，不过是一个区区灵泉境，更是差了十万八千里。
这最重要的两项实力标准，你都差得远，若不是因为你走了狗屎运，竟然被军部立为英雄军人的典型，一再造势大肆宣传，在政治上具有一点特殊意义，张部首今天还哪里有时间有心情和你在这里废话，早就直接叫人绑了你，挂在辎重部大门口的【宣告刑柱】上，挂你个十天十夜，到时候看你服不服。
叶青羽看着地面上的白色岩石粉末，沉默了片刻。
正当赵如云觉得这个倒霉的巡营执剑使要屈服的时候，叶青羽突然说话了。
“你赔。” 他说道。
“什么？” 张三一怔。
叶青羽很认真地道：“你打碎了我的桌子，赔钱。”
张三一呆。 他已经预想过在自己的威逼利诱之下，这个年轻的巡营执剑使会有什么样的反应——大致有两种，或者沉默屈服或者硬撑到底，但是却万万没有想到，叶青羽的口中会冒出这样一句话。
赔桌子？
疯了吗？
这是一张桌子的问题吗？
话题的重点，是配不配桌子吗？
张三觉得自己被调戏了。
他微微带着一丝恼意，看着叶青羽。
这一刻，张三突然有一种啼笑皆非的感觉。
他觉得这个年轻的巡营执剑使之所以一直都表现的这么强硬，即便是明知道自己护短成性也要出手对付赵如云，或许并非是因为他真的正义感爆棚之类的，而仅仅是因为，这小子神经有问题。 这个叶青羽，根本就是一个神经病。
他的脑子有问题，所以才拎不清轻重。
一个神经正常的人，绝对不会权衡不清楚其中的利弊，非要来招惹自己。
张三从储物戒指之中，取出一锭赤金，丢到叶青羽的脚下，笑道：“一张石桌只值一两银子，这锭赤金价值百两足银，都给了，不用找了，剩下的你预备着，万一那天你出门磕着碰着，或者被人打了闷棍，可以买点儿汤药喝喝。”
这可就是赤裸裸的威胁了。
叶青羽看着脚下的赤金，再看看对面一脸冷笑的张三，也突然有一种错觉，坐在自己对面的，并非是一位手握重权的【幽燕军团】资深大佬，而是一个在街头敲诈勒索的小混混。
这样的一个人，能够坐到辎重部部首的位置上，也真的是一件奇事。
想了想，叶青羽伸手，内元催动，掌心一吸。
赤金飞到了他手中。
入手的瞬间，叶青羽正要说什么，突然异变骤生——突然一道炽热无比的气息，从这赤金之中爆发出来，仿佛是掌心里握住了一颗小太阳一般，恐怖的热力，瞬间要将他的半条手臂都融化。
好一个张三，竟然在这赤金之中，留下了暗劲。
叶青羽吃惊之下，表面上不动声色，却暗中第一时间调动了无上冰炎。
只见他五指之间，有微弱的银色毫光一闪。
赤金之中的炎热暗劲，顷刻间消失的无影无踪。
“多谢张部首。” 叶青羽笑了笑，指甲轻轻在金锭上一划，如同切豆腐一般切下来一角，将这小小一点赤金手下，剩下的大半块，都丢了回去，道：“我只拿自己应该得到的，不敢额外多拿，要不然又会被人说是偷了军饷，这样的罪名，我可背不起。”
金锭化作一道弧光，丢向了张三的脸。
“放肆，小杂碎你找死！”
赵如云又惊又怒，这个叶青羽真的是作死，竟敢将如此无礼，用东西丢张部首的脸，这样的举动，就算是四大主战营的统帅，都不敢这么做吧。
他一步踏出，伸手就去抓那金锭。
随手一爪，金锭入手。
“小杂碎，你简直该死一万次……”赵如云怒斥，有张三在身边，他根本不将叶青羽放在眼里。
但是，一句话还没有说完，他猛然觉得掌心之中，一股寒意爆发出来。
低头一看，顿时脸上一片难以遏制的惊骇。
只见一层淡银色的寒霜，顺着他的掌心，爆发弥漫开来，只是一瞬间，就将他的半只手臂冰封住，这银霜无比可怕，所过之处，手臂完全丧失了知觉，想要爆发内元抵御寒意，却发现自己的内元，竟然无法在手臂中催动了。
赵如云惊骇地大叫了起来。
转眼，银色寒霜就蔓延到了他的肩部。
张三见状，轻哼了一声，一掌拍出，轻轻地印在了赵如云的肩膀上。
一股暖流注入赵如云的身体之中，抵御那银霜寒气。
眼见张三出手，赵如云彻底松了一口气。
“咦？”
张三原本轻蔑而又轻松的脸上，突然闪过一丝惊讶之色，随意拍在赵如云肩膀上的手掌，微微一震，然后猛地绽放出刺目的橙色，一股恐怖的热力爆发。
下一瞬间，赵如云肩膀上的银色寒霜，终于缓缓地消失。
赵如云表情终于轻松了下来。
真是跳梁小丑不自量力。” 他骂了一句，在他看来，有张三出手，叶青羽的那点儿修为，根本就不值一提。
但是他却没有看到，张三五指之间，那还没有散去的淡淡银霜。
赵如云恭敬地转身，将手中的那半块赤金，双手呈给了身后的张三。
张三接过了赤金。
他的神色之中，蕴含着一丝不易察觉的震惊，将赤金捏在手中把玩，半晌，才点了点头，道：“有点儿意思，我倒是看轻你了，怪不得敢这么狂。”
叶青羽淡淡一笑。
“看来今天我们谈不拢了？” 张三很快又变回了之前那种盛气凌人且倨傲的神色，直勾勾地盯着叶青羽，道：“这么说来，叶侯爷是真的要和我辎重部作对了？”
叶青羽指了指地上那团白色粉末，道：“我一张桌子，如果不够硬，那它的上面，还能盛放东西吗？ 一碰就软，那不是桌子的本性，那样的东西，也不应该叫做桌子，所以它才在张部首的脚下，化作了粉末，而不是弯曲成一滩烂泥。”
说道这里，叶青羽看了一眼赵如云，大有深意地道：“有人选择做一滩随意揉捏的烂泥，而我却更愿意做一张宁碎不弯的桌子。”
赵如云顿时脸色潮红如涂了猪血。
今天就一更了，整天都在高速上…… <sent>

Chapter 178 - Table and Mud
White Horse tower. "I wonder just what kind of accounting Marquis Ye wants?" Zhang San inclined back on his chair, not concealing the mockery and disdain on his face at all. He looked at Ye Qingyu with a smile that was not a smile.
The person behind him was Zhao Ruyun, standing as straight as a spear. His lips were also faintly curled.
As part of the younger generation among the allocation officers of the military supply department, Zhao Ruyun was greatly admired by his superior, Zhang San. Due to the fact he understood Zhang San’s personality completely, Zhao Ruyun was extremely clear that when such an expression appeared on his superior’s face, someone was going to be in deep, troubled waters.
He stared coldly at Ye Qingyu.
He had always awaited the moment when Ye Qingyu's misfortune would come.
Opposite them.
Ye Qingyu had a faint and calm smile.
As if he had not noticed the mockery within Zhang San's tone at all, the young man said seriously, "The accounting that I want is very simple. Whoever is behind the schemes against the White Horse tower, they will admit it and accept military discipline. Using the soldier's pay to create a plot to frame someone is a very serious offense against the laws of the army. They cannot be spared."
Hearing this, Zhang San opened his mouth and laughed.
Behind him the mockery on Zhao Ruyun's face became even more evident. He stared at Ye Qingyu like he was looking at a retard.
"What if I said the person behind all the plots and schemes was me?" Zhang San's feet were on the table, casually and arrogantly shifting them about. He made the entire table creak and squeak, moving them about. He lifted his head to look at Ye Qingyu.
Ye Qingyu’s gaze was straight and direct as he looked into Zhang San's eyes, without any shred of fear whatsoever, "What difference does it make?"
His eyes were filled with contempt and disdain.
In that moment, Ye Qingyu's gaze represented far too much coldness. Out of the things held in the gaze, the thing that pierced Zhao Ruyun's self-dignity the most was the fact that it was as if Ye Qingyu was saying 'just who do you think you are, that you have the right to speak here?’
The atmosphere was slightly heavy.
Zhao Ruyun looked at Ye Qingyu's expression carefully. After confirming that the young man in front of him was not making a joke, he smiled and nodded his head.
"Being young is really great, with hot blood in your heart, doing things without care. Such new people do things without fear at all. Many times, this really makes one envious, however… young man, there are some matters that one cannot solve just by having hot blood in your chest. I have seen far too many stubborn little fellows like you. But ultimately they have either became corpses on the battlefield or have turned into trashes who remain silent.”
Saying this, Zhang San took his feet off the table.
"Just like this table. The material is far too hard. If it is not able to be flexible, once it encounters some pressure, it is easily destroyed." As he spoke, the stone table slightly quivered. Without any sound, it suddenly transformed into a pile of white powder. Without knowing when, Zhang San’s exceptional inner yuan had already crushed it into dust.
Such technique was extremely exquisite.
According to rumours, the [Worry of Ghosts] Zhang San, was not only the head of the supply department, but he was also an exceptional martial artist. It was said that ten years ago, he had long entered the Bitter Sea stage.
A smile appeared on the face of Zhao Ruyun. He was rejoicing in Ye Qingyu's upcoming predicament.
He nearly burst out laughing.
Haha, just how can you, Ye Qingyu, compete with Head Zhang?
With his position and his background in the great [Army of Youyan Pass], Zhang San was definitely an officer of great contribution, achieving countless deeds. When these achievements were placed together, it was able to form a chainmail of protection. Ye Qingyu had not even been in Youyan Pass for three months, just what right did he have? He was far, far from being enough to go against him.
Comparing martial strength, Head Zhang was already at the Bitter Sea stage tens of years ago. And as for Ye Qingyu, he was only a mere Spirit spring stage, the difference was tens of thousands of kilometers apart.
From these two important indicators of power, Ye Qingyu was far too lacking. No matter how much dog shit luck you have that you were able to become the person that the military wanted to build the model example of a heroic soldier of, it would not be enough. With the large scale propaganda done, there were some special political meanings behind Ye Qingyu. If not for that, why would Head Zhang still have the mood to waste time chatting with you. He would long have tied him up and hung him on the [Punishment Pillars] outside the supply department. After being hung for ten days and night, at that time he would definitely submit.
Ye Qingyu looked at the white rock powder on the floor and remained silent for a moment.
Namely when Zhao Ruyun felt that the unfortunate patrolling sword envoy was about to submit, Ye Qingyu suddenly spoke.
"You have to pay for it," He said.
"What?" Zhang San was taken aback.
Ye Qingyu said seriously, "You've broken my table, pay for it."
He had already predicted, under his pressure and threat, what sort of reaction this young patrolling sword envoy would have— There should be mainly two reactions. He would either remain silent and submit or forcefully resist to the end. But he would never have imagined that Ye Qingyu would say such words.
Pay for my table?
Was he crazy?
Was this a matter concerning a table?
Was the main point of this conversation whether or not he would pay for the table?
Zhang San felt that he was being mocked.
He looked at Ye Qingyu with a shred of anger.
At this moment, Zhang San had an impulse to burst out laughing.
He suddenly felt that the reason that this young patrolling sword envoy had always taken such a hard stance, evidently knowing of his protective nature, yet still taking action against Zhao Ruyun, was not really the fact that he was the type to fight for justice and righteousness. It was merely because this little brat had mental problems.
His brain had problems, therefore he could not discern the severity of the situation.
A person with a normal mindset would absolutely not come provoke him after understanding the benefits and costs involved.
Zhang San took out a piece of gold from his inter spatial ring and threw it to the feet of Ye Qingyu. "A stone table is worth a tael of silver. This piece of gold is worth two hundred taels of silver. I'll give this to you, you don't have to give me change. The money left over you can save, in case you knock into something when you go out, or get beaten up by someone. In that case, you can at least buy some medicine.”
This was a bare and naked threat.
Ye Qingyu looked at the gold near his feet, then looked towards the Zhang San coldly sneering. He had the impression that the person sitting opposite him was not a high ranking military officer holding great power in the [Army of Youyan Pass] but rather a ruffian holding people ransom on the streets.
For such a person to be able to assume the position of the head of the supply department, was really a strange matter.
After thinking it over, Ye Qingyu extended his hand and activated his inner yuan. A suction force appeared from his palm.
This piece of gold flew to his hand.
The moment it touched his hand, Ye Qingyu was about to say something when an abnormal change occurred— suddenly, an incomparably hot aura exploded from this piece of gold. It was as if he was holding a little sun within his hands, this terrifying hotness was about to completely dissolve half his arm in an instant.
Zhang San had left a hidden force within this piece of gold.
In his shock, Ye Qingyu did not show any emotion on his face. The moment he encountered this hidden attack, he activated the [Supreme Ice flame].
Between his five fingers, there was a faint silver light that flashed slightly.
The heat from the piece of gold immediately disappeared completely.
"Thank you, Head Zhang." Ye Qingyu smiled slightly, his nail lightly slicing across the piece of gold. The gold sliced apart like tofu, and he kept a tiny piece of gold behind but tossed the large majority of the gold back. "I should only take what I deserve. After all, if I take too much, I will once again be suspected of stealing the soldiers' pay. Such a crime, I cannot bear.
The piece of gold flew through an arc, towards Zhang San's face.
"Impudence, little trash you are looking to die!"
Zhao Ruyun was both shocked and angry. This Ye Qingyu was really asking for his death, to be so bold and impolite. To throw something at Head Zhang's face. Even the commanders of the four main battle camps would not dare to do such an action.
He stepped out, extending his hand to grab the piece of gold.
His hand clawed through the air, successfully catching the gold.
"Little trash, you really deserve to die ten thousand times over…” Zhao Ruyun reprimanded in rage. With Zhang San next to him, he completely was not afraid of Ye Qingyu.
But, before he could finish his sentence, he fiercely felt a coldness explode from the palm of his hands.
Lowering his head to look, the shock in his face could not be controlled.
A layer of silver frost began to spread out from the center of his palm. In but a split moment, half of his arm was sealed in ice. This frost was incomparably frightening, everywhere it passed on his arm would entirely lose its feeling. He wanted to activate his inner yuan explosively to resist against his cold, but he discovered that his own inner yuan had no way of activating within his arm.
Zhao Ruyun began screaming in fear.
In the blink of an eye, the silver frost had already spread to his shoulder.
Zhang San seeing this, let out a slight snort. His palm shot out, lightly pressing it onto Zhao Ruyun's shoulder.
A stream of warmth entered into Zhao Ruyun's body, resisting against the silver frost.
Seeing that Zhang San had acted, Zhao Ruyun completely let out a breath of relief.
But very quickly, an alarmed sound came from behind him "Eh?"
A trace of alarm suddenly appeared on Zhang San's relaxed and contemptuous face. The palm that he had casually placed on Zhao Ruyun's shoulder faintly quivered, then fiercely shone with a piercing orange. A terrifying heat exploded.
The next instant, the silver frost on Zhao Ruyun's shoulder gradually disappeared.
Zhao Ruyun's expression finally relaxed.
"Little trash, you are pretending to be strong? A clown that does not know his own strength." Zhao Ruyun insulted Ye Qingyu. From his perspective, if Zhang San was willing to act, Ye Qingyu's tiny little cultivation was not even worth mentioning.
But he did not see that on the fingers of Zhang San there was a faint silver frost that had not yet disappeared.
Zhao Ruyun turned his body around respectfully. He presented the piece of gold in his hands with both hands towards Zhang San[1] .
Zhang San received the piece of gold.
Within his eyes, there was a shock that was not easily noticed. Tossing the piece of gold in his hand, a short while later, he nodded his head. "Somewhat interesting. It seems like I have underestimated you, otherwise you would not dare to be so wild.
Ye Qingyu had a faint smile.
"It seems like we cannot discuss matters peacefully today?" Zhang San once again returned to his arrogant and overbearing manner. Staring straight at Ye Qingyu. "In other words, Marquis Ye wants to go against the entire supply department?” "I only want an accounting," Ye Qingyu said word by word. "It's that simple, and is also what my White Horse tower should receive.
Zhang San, "If you want an accounting, then you will have to pay the price.” "The price?" Ye Qingyu pointed at the white powder on the floor. "My table, if it is not hard enough, then can items still be placed on it? A table that bends is not the original nature of a table. Such an object can no longer be called a table. Therefore, it transformed into powder under Head Zhang's feet, and not bent into a pile of rotten mud*.
Saying to here, Ye Qingyu looked towards Zhao Ruyun. Then, continuing meaningfully, "Some people choose to bend and become a pile of mud, but I wish to be a table that will never bend.”
Zhao Ruyun's face instantly turned red as if pig's blood had been painted on his face.

"value": "AST 2208 - Waft of Fragrance, Widow Qing\n“Young Master Tai?” Qing Shui was confused. Luckily, he recalled the person who was healed by him a few months ago. Still, he wondered why the guy was here.\n“You remembered,” Beihuang Fan smiled.\n“I do. Could it be that his balls are not working again?” Qing Shui asked in confusion.\nBeihuang Fan’s face flushed red instantly. This bastard did it on purpose. She did not say anything but simply glared at Qing Shui. Then she walked away.\n“Not bad. You are more ladylike now,” Qing Shui said with a smile. He made sure that Beihuang Fan heard him.\nBeihuang Fan’s mouth corners lifted to form a curve. She was as charming as a fairy. Meanwhile, Qing Shui started to head out from the backyard of the Imperial Cuisine, which was recently made. As he arrived at the front yard, he noticed Young Master Tai waiting there.\nHe stood there alone and was very happy to see Qing Shui.\nQing Shui thought of the Star God Pendant as he saw Young Master Tai. After all, this fellow had gifted a powerful divine weapon to him. So, Qing Shui smiled, “What brings you here? Is it not working?”\n“What is not working? Ah, no no. You are a miraculous physician. It is great!” Young Master Tai did not know his meaning initially. He figured out when he saw Qing Shui’s eyeing his lower body part.\n“Younger brother, I’m here to drink with you. I know an expert like you doesn’t care about the common things. I got two divine wines. I purposely came to share these with you,” Young Master Tai said as he took out a bottle of wine happily.\nThe bottle was not big. It was about 1.5kg. The bottle itself was not flashy as it was painted in a plain and worn-out color. Yet, it looked very classy and outstanding.\nQing Shui never lacked any good wine; it was something that Young Master Tai did not know. However, Qing Shui was surprised when Young Master Tai opened the wine bottle. The reason was that the quality of the wine was not bad. It was on par with his own Tiger Bone Liquor.\nQing Shui’s wine was specially made with a secret recipe and it was kept for many years. This wine seemed to be exclusively made with a special recipe too. It looked like an aged wine.\n“It doesn’t smell bad huh? Let us try.” Young Master Tai poured a bowl for Qing Shui before pouring another bowl for himself.\nQing Shui smiled and toasted with Young Master Tai. It had a fresh and thick fragrance in his mouth, as if a kind of delicacy were melting inside his mouth, its wonderful taste spreading throughout the body. All the senses were awakened.\n“Not bad! Where is this from?” Qing Shui nodded and asked out of curiosity.\n“This was produced somewhere in my place; this kind of wine relies on its age. If it is not kept long enough, the taste will be greatly reduced. This bottle of wine was from a collection, hence it tastes so good. The wine made by this person takes a long, long time to become this good. By that time, we would probably be old by then.” Young Master Tai said.\n“What is the name of this wine?”\n“Waft of Fragrance!” Young Master Tai said.\n“Can you bring me to the person who made this wine?” Qing Shui asked.\n“Sure, but this person has a weird temper. She knows how to make good wine and she doesn’t sell it to everybody. No matter how much money people offer, she won’t sell a drop of it to them,” Young Master Tai said.\n“Oh, this personality is great.” Qing Shui said seriously.\nYoung Master Tai always reckoned that he was abnormal but he soon came to the realization that there were many people who were far more abnormal than himself.\nQing Shui headed there straight after the conversation. After two hours, he rushed to the Pure Domain together with Young Master Tai.\nThe Pure Domain was further north to the Northern Emperor Domain and the Blazing Fire Land. But, it was in the same layer as the Northern Emperor Domain. However, the further north a force is situated, the stronger and the larger its land covered. Now, Qing Shui was bold because of his great skills. Thus, he headed to the Pure Domain alone.\nWith Qing Shui’s and Young Master Tai’s speed, they managed to reach the Pure Domain in two days’ time. That was owing to the Nine Continents Steps, Otherwise, it would take at least one week. This trip made Young Master Tai envious. He was able to save a lot of time when traveling with Qing Shui.\nOn the extremely wide streets, ancient and tall buildings were built and spread throughout the land endlessly. The crowd and beast vehicles were busy crossing and passing. There were people who wore the warrior and knight attires walking to and fro on the streets.\nSome people were riding on demonic beasts. Some were riding on the birds. Some were holding swords while some were holding bows and arrows. Some walked alone whereas some were in groups.\nQing Shui got used to a world like this, but he still had a special feeling every time he saw it. This was a world ruled by strength. This was an interesting world, filled with beauties.\n“You saw a beauty?” Young Master Tai asked as he noticed Qing Shui stopping and looking at his surroundings.\n“No, I don’t like to see beauties,” Qing Shui replied and smiled.\n“I forgot to tell you something. The one who made the wine is a beauty herself. This wine is passed in the family, but this beauty is slightly older. She was married but her man died before she could have any children. Her parents are also gone, leaving her alone to take care of the wine shop.” Young Master Tai said.\n“You like her?” Qing Shui asked.\n“You will like her too when you see her. Although she was married, frankly speaking, this woman is no weaker than your women. If it were not for her marital status and her title of being a disaster, she would definitely be considered as the prettiest woman in the Pure Domain,” Young Master Tai said seriously.\n“Alright, let’s not talk about this. We are here to check the wine. We will talk about the rest next time,” Qing Shui stopped the talk with this remark. He had some wine now, but there were not many types of them. This Fragrance Wine was not bad. After all, it was comparable to the Tiger Bone Liquor. If he knew the recipe, with the ingredients in the Realm of Violet Jade Immortal, he should be able to bring it to the next level. It would not be weaker than the Plum Blossom Wine and the Precious Dew Wine.\n“How do you address this wine maker?” Qing Shui thought of that.\n“Widow Qing!”\nQing Shui was surprised by this familiar-sounding name. He had a brief thought and smiled. Still, he asked, “Could it be just ‘Widow Qing’?”\n“Her name is Nalan Qing,” Young Master Tai replied.\nWithout them knowing, they arrived at a rather remote place. It was not easy to find a quiet place in this city. It was only relatively more peaceful here. It was more peaceful in here than the most bustling places. It could also be said that the living status here was lower than the most bustling places.\nFragrance Shack!\nThis was the name of the wine shop; it was a very ordinary place. But, there was a little sentiment. Many people around here were selling wine and it was crowded in every shop, except for the Fragrance Shack. It was quiet there, as if there was nobody inside.\n“The wine is so nice! Why aren’t there any customers?” Qing Shui asked.\n“Because they only sell wine once a week. Moreover, they only sell fifty bottles. The wine shops around here borrowed the fame of the Fragrance Shack. When people can’t get wine from here, they will surely buy from those shops. Thus, all the shops nearby take advantage of its fame,” Young Master Tai explained.\n“You seem to know this quite well. You come here often?”\n“Yes. Otherwise, how could I get the two bottles?” Young Master Tai did not deny and replied jokingly.\nThe door of the Fragrance Shack was closed but not locked. However, this was indicating that they were not selling wine at the moment. Moreover, people here knew about this strange wine shop. Nobody gave face to it. Plus, the beauty was a disaster. Many people wanted to get this woman but apparently they failed. Some of them even ended up in a terrible way."

第2208章
“太大少？” 青水疑惑，还好想起来了，几个月前被他治好的那个快枪手，只是不知道他来做什么。
北皇梵笑道。
“想起来了，莫非蛋蛋又不好使了？”
青水疑惑的问道。 北皇梵脸一下子红了，这混蛋故意的，什么也没有嗔了青水一眼直接走了。
青水笑着说道，他的声音就是要让北皇梵听到的。
北皇梵嘴角牵起一丝翘起的弧度，魅惑如仙，青水则是向外走去，青水是在后院，现在的御膳堂已经有了后院了，来到前院的时候看到太大少在哪里等着。
一个人站在那里，看到青水很开心。
看到太大少响起了星辰神坠，不管怎么说这家伙送了一件强大的神器，所以笑着说道：“怎么，不好使了？” “什么不好使？
啊，没有没有，你是神医，好着呢。” 太大少本来不知道什么意思，看到青水眼神看他下面的时候知道是说什么了。
“老弟，我是来找你喝酒的，我知道你这样的高人不在乎俗物，我得到两坛仙酿，特意前来找你分享。” 太大少开心的拿出一坛酒。
坛子不大，但也是有三斤多的那种，坛子并不华丽，是那种古朴的颜色，不过看起来很大气很上档次。
青水不缺好酒，太大少不知道，不过青水在太大少打开酒坛的时候也是一愣，因为这酒确实不错，比起自己的虎骨酒什么的也是丝毫不逊色，不能说差。
青水的酒是特制秘法加上年份，这份酒应该也是特质秘法，看样子年份也是很远了。 “味道不错吧，来我们尝尝。”
太大少帮青水先是倒了一碗，又帮自己倒了一碗。
青水笑着和太大少碰了一碗，进口清香，很浓郁，似乎是一种美味在嘴中化开然后那种美好感觉蔓延全身，唤起整个人的感觉。
“不错，这东西哪来的。” 青水点点头然后也是好奇的问道。
“这是我们那里一个地方出的，这种酒需要年份，如果么有年份就会打打折扣，这坛酒是珍藏的，所以才能这么好喝，那个人酿制的酒需要很久很久之后才能想这个这般好喝，估计那时候我们也都老了。” 太大少说道。
“这酒叫什么名字？”
“飘香榭！”
太大少说道。 “可不可以带我去认识下这个酿酒的人？” 青水问道。
“可以，不过这个人脾气很怪，她会酿制很多酒，对外卖酒也不是谁都能买到的，有的人花再多的钱她也是一滴也不卖。” 太大少说道。
“哦，这个性格好。” 青水认真的说道。
太大少一直感觉自己不正常，没想到现在发现比自己不正常的人还多。
青水说去就去，一个时辰后和太大少向着太清域赶去。
太清域在北皇域和烈火域更背面，不过层次上说和北皇域还是一个大层次的，不过趋势上时越向北的实力越强，地域也更大，现在青水也算是艺高人胆大，所以置身前往太清域。
以青水和太大少的速度也就两天的时间就到了太清域，这是有九州行，不然的话至少需要一周的时间了，这一赶路让太大少艳羡不已，跟着青水赶路都能省去好多时间。
宽大无比的街道，有着古朴高大的殿楼，一座座的林立蔓延到无尽头，人来人往，兽车穿行，穿着武士服，骑士服也有战裙的人不断的来来往往。
有的骑着妖兽，有的坐着飞禽，有的拿着刀剑，有的拿着弓箭，有单人的，有成群结伙的。
青水早已习惯了这样的世界，但每次看到还是有种特别的感觉，这是一个武力至上的世界，这是一个精彩的世界，也是一个有美女的世界。
“看到美女了？” 太大少看着青水停下来看着周围边问道。
“没有，不喜欢看美女。”
青水笑道。 “忘了给你说，酿酒的就是个美女，这酒是家传的，不过这个美女年龄大一点，嫁过人，只是男人死了，也没有子嗣，父母什么的也不在了，只有她自己守着一处酒家。” 太大少说道。
“你喜欢她？” 青水笑了。
“你看了也会喜欢，虽然嫁过人，但说实话这个女人就算是比起弟妹也不逊色什么，如果不是因为嫁过人，还有个祸水的名号，绝对是太清域最美的女人。” 太大少认真的说道。
“好了，不说这些了，我们是看看酒的，其他的以后再说。” 青水摇摇头，他现在有不少酒，但种类不多，这飘香榭真不错，毕竟能和虎骨酒相比，如果自己能知道酿制方子，加上自己紫玉仙境的材料一定可以提升几个档次，比起梅花酒和珍露酒绝对也不逊色多少。
“这个酿酒人怎么称呼？” 青水想到这个问题。
“寡妇清！”
青水一愣，这名字熟悉，想了想笑了，不过还是问道：“难道直接叫寡妇清？”
“她叫纳兰淸。”
太大少说道。 不知不觉已经走到一处相对僻静的位置，在这城池中想找个清净地方不容易，这里的清净只是相对的，比起最繁华的几处地方这里清净一些，或者说这里的人生活档次比起最繁华的哪里相对不如。
飘香酒居！
这是这酒家的名字，很普通，但似乎还有点情调，这周围很多都是卖酒的，每家的人很多，只有飘香酒居这里冷冷清清，似乎一个人也没。
“酒这么好喝，为什么没有顾客。” 青水问道。
“因为一周只有一天卖酒，而且只卖五十坛，周围的这些酒家都是借飘香酒居的名气的，别人来这里买不到酒，自然会有人去这些人的酒店买，所以周边的人都是占了这飘香酒居的便宜。”
“挺了解的嘛，没少来这里？”
“是啊，要不怎么能弄到那两坛。” 太大少倒也没有反驳青水的打趣。
飘香酒居的门是关着的，但没有锁，不过这已经告诉人现在不卖酒，再说这里的人都知道这家古怪的酒家，谁的面子也不给，加上美~艳~祸~水，很多人都想打这个女人的注意，但似乎都没有得逞，甚至有的落的下场很惨。

AST 2208 - Waft of Fragrance, Widow Qing
“Young Master Tai?” Qing Shui was confused. Luckily, he recalled the person who was healed by him a few months ago. Still, he wondered why the guy was here.

"value": "Chapter 0073 – Advancing to True Condensation In A Small Town\nNing Cheng with his fastest speed put away everything, even the airship Type Artefact that Xun Shun came in was directly put in his Storage Bag, after collecting all the things he quickly left.\nHowever, after two hours, Ning Cheng stopped, he felt that something was wrong. He was obviously chasing the traces Tai Shu Shi left behind, but after coming here, he could not even find a single trace.\nNing Cheng tried to find the traces of Tai Shu Shi all around, but even after looking carefully he could not even find half a clue as to his whereabouts.\nAfter quite a while of searching, Ning Cheng finally left that place, he decided to wait for them near the edges of the Thunder Fall Desert. He had already given the map to Tai Shu Shi, and he also knew that to go to the Hua Continent, Tai Shu Shi would have to go through the Thunder Fall Desert, and so would definitely pass through one of the entrances marked on the map.\nFrom the Yuan Continent to the Hua Continent, whether by flying or by walking, one must go through the Thunder Fall Desert.\nOn the outskirts of the Thunder Fall Desert, there were actually three small towns, Thunder Fall Town, Moon Sand Town and Firefly Town.\nOf these three towns, the liveliest and the largest was the Thunder Fall Town. Every year there were countess cultivators arriving here from the Thunder Fall Desert. Besides the handful of people who come to the Thunder Fall Desert to look for treasures, most of the people here come to this town to pass through the Thunder Fall Desert to go to the Hua Continent.\nBut it was quite a well-known fact, that the number of people who can successfully cross the Thunder Fall Desert and enter the Hua Continent were truly very few. As many people would end up dying in the Thunder Fall Desert, as a result since a long time, this Thunder Fall Desert was also called by another name, the Bone Desert. Because once you went inside the desert, you could see the dense quantities of bones of the dead cultivators scattered around. The number of cultivators who died here were simply too many.\nEven then, the number of people entering the Thunder Fall Desert never decreased, and arrived wave after wave.\nNing Cheng had the simple map that he had obtained from Kou Hong, so he did not enter the Thunder Fall Town, but rather entered the Moon Sand Town. This Moon Sand town, compared to the other two towns on the edges of the Thunder Fall Desert, had fewer resources and was far from the bustling atmosphere in the Thunder Fall Town.\nNing Cheng who was rushing with all his might, in one month arrived outside the Moon Sand Town. In this entire month, he never took out the things that he had obtained from the black robed Xun Shun from his Storage Bag to check them out. The main reason for that was of course to arrive at Moon Sand Town as early as possible, once he arrived at the Moon Sand Town, he could then wait patiently for Tai Shu Shi, if there was any problem, then he could easily run into the Thunder Fall Desert at the first sign of trouble.\nMixing himself with some wary adventurers that had also just arrived, Ning Cheng finally stepped into the Moon Sand Town just as the sun started to set.\nCompared to the liveliness of Thunder Fall Town, Moon Sand Town looked somewhat desolate. Ning Cheng was certain that with his speed, he would definitely have arrived here earlier than Tai Shu Shi. All he had to do now was to wait for Tai Shu Shi in Moon Sad Town, and while waiting for him he could even refine the two Artefacts that he had obtained from before, while simultaneously preparing to advance to the True Condensation Realm.\nWhether it was those old copper coins, or that piece of airship Type Artefact both of them were really good items, and it made Ning Cheng to very much look forward to refining them, relatively speaking, he actually did not care much of the red Flying Sword.\nThere were very few pedestrians on the streets of Moon Sand Town and even the communication between them was very sparse.\nNing Cheng found a small unassuming place to rest, such type of unassuming dwellings was common for cultivators in this town, moreover such kinds of rest stops were very common in the Moon Sand Town. These cultivators would generally go out for several months for a trip and once they came back they would choose to seclude themselves, only when their resources for their cultivation were exhausted, would they once again leave Moon Sand Town. This went on again and again, until the day that they die.\nThe resources for cultivation in the Thunder Fall Desert were very few, and not everyone could undertake the task to go out searching for them. Although they knew of this, many cultivators would still choose this life, also because they did not have any other choice.\nNing Cheng was looking with some interest at his rest stop, it was called the Moon River, in this Moon Sand Town, this type of building like Moon River was something very common and would not attract any attention. Moreover, in this building, there were only a few scattered cultivators who looked very deadbeat.\nNing Cheng did not care much about it, after he entered his room, he immediately put up closed sign on the door, while he arranged several Array Formations inside the room, there were Concealment Array Formations, Defensive Array Formations…….\nOnce all the Array Formations were completed, Ning Cheng first took out the old copper coins. These old copper coins had pulled away his Spear during his battle, which immediately surprised Ning Cheng. If he did not have the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle and the inner armour, then perhaps he would have been killed by Xun Shun.\nThis was mainly because his opponent lacked experience, but these old copper coins gave him a huge headache.\nRefining these old copper coins was very difficult, and Ning Cheng almost took up 10 days just for that, it was only when he successfully refined the Restriction on one of the coins, did he come to understand why Xun Shun had to expunge so much strength and Qi to try and control this Artefact. That Xun Shun was only a cultivator at the True Condensation 2nd Level and coupled with his limited Spiritual Sense, it ended up extremely difficult for him to control it.\nIn any case, this was really a treasure, moreover it was a great treasure that he could use. As for the Restrictions on the rest of them, Ning Cheng did not continue to refine it, he planned to re-refine it later when he had the free time.\nCompared to the Five Elements Treasure Fall Copper Coins, the airship Type Artefact that he had acquired from Xun Shun was much easier to refine, Ning Cheng had only spent half a day to refine it, he not only refined this airship Type Artefact, but at the same time he also acquired the knowledge on how to operate the airship on his own.\nAs for the red Flying Sword, after just refining it for a bit, he threw it into his Storage Bag, he did not like Flying Swords much.\nThen Ning Cheng finally took out the Storage Bag that he had taken from the black robed Xun Shun. Back in the Yi Shui Courtyard, this Xun Shun was extremely generous, so Ning Cheng was rather looking forward to the contents in his Storage Bag.\nNing Cheng did not have to spend much time in lifting the Restrictions on the Storage Bag, but when he swept the Storage Bag with his Spiritual Sense, he immediately became disappointed.\nGoing by the way that Xun Shun spent his Spirit Stones, Ning Cheng thought that he would at least have 30-40 thousand Spirit Stones in his Storage Bag, but in fact, his Storage Bag only had about 10,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones. If this man had bought Liu Han Yu and Lian’e, then he would then only have about 2,000 Spirit Stones left with him.\nBut in this Storage Bag there were actually several jade bottles filled with pills, and even more Jade Pieces. Ning Cheng took out one of the Jade Pieces, and swept through it with his Spiritual Sense, it was exactly how he had guessed. These Jade Pieces recorded information on how to use the cultivation of women as their own. Thus from this it could be seen, that Xun Shun’s master was also not a good person.\nSweeping through the rest of the Jade Pieces, Ning Cheng found that they were all of the same type. So Ning Cheng felt disgusted with them and immediately burned them with his Fireball Technique, since he was from Earth, he could not come to accept such methods that existed in this world.\nAfter obtaining the 10,000 Spirit Stones and coupled with his own 12 Thousand Spirit Stones that he had on him, Ning Cheng decided to finally attack the True Condensation Realm. Once he advances to the True Condensation Realm, he would then go out to look for Tai Shu Shi in the Moon Sand Town.\nAfter the Spirit Stones were changed into powder by the usage of Ning Cheng, most of the dissipating aura from the Spirit Stones was blocked by the Array Formations that he had set up previously, although there was a part of the aura that the Array Formations could not block off. However, for the cultivators staying in this rest stop, this circulation of the Spiritual Qi, was not something that they would feel strange about.\nOne month later, Ning Cheng finally exited his room and went out to purchase some food before returning back to his room again. At this time, he was already at the peak of the Qi Gathering 9th Level, and was ready to finally advance to the True Condensation Realm.\nTaking out the True Condensation Pill, Ning Cheng could feel that the entire Qi in his body immediately turned restless, Ning Cheng knew that he was finally truly ready to start the process to advance to the True Condensation Realm. Not feeling hurried in his heart, he started to slowly operate his Cultivation Method and started to transform the Qi in his body into True Essence.\nWith his complete Cultivation Method, and his cultivation level of peak stage Qi Gathering 9th Level, the Qi in his body in just a short while started to show signs of transforming into True Essence. Now with the help of the True Condensation Pill, which helped in starting the transformation of his Qi, he did not face much difficulty.\nDuring the time Ning Cheng spent in close door cultivation, the piles of Spirit Stones stacked next to him were growing smaller and smaller. He did not know how long he had been sitting like that, but Ning Cheng felt that the Meridians through which his Qi, which was transforming crazily into True Essence, flowed was continuously sending out intermittent Ka Ka Ka sounds. At this moment, all the Meridians in his body expanded to double their sizes almost instantly.\nHu, Ning Cheng took a long breath, and suddenly stood up.\n“Is this really True Condensation Realm?” Ning Cheng had just advanced to the True Condensation Realm, when he felt that his body now was several times much more powerful than when he was in Qi Gathering 9th Level, he could not help but exclaim out in amazement.\nBefore when he had not yet advanced to the True Condensation Realm, he always thought that the True Condensation Realm was just so so. After all, even when he was at the Qi Gathering 9th Level he could kill cultivators in the Middle Stages of True Condensation Realm, albeit with a little bit of difficulty, but now that he had finally advanced to the True Condensation Realm, he found that the True Condensation Realm and the Qi Gathering Realm really had too many differences.\nThe reason why he was able to kill cultivators in the True Condensation Realm till now, was simply because he had never met a real cultivator of the True Condensation Realm. If he had met with a real cultivator of the True Condensation Realm, how could he who was only in the Qi Gathering Realm match up to them? The formidable True Essence that they possess was basically not something a Qi Gathering Realm cultivator would be able to match up to.\nCalculating the time, he had been staying in Moon Sand Town for nearly 2 months, since did not find any news of Tai Shu Shi during this time. Ning Cheng decided to not wait any longer, he would have to enter the Thunder Fall Desert alone and make his way to the Hua Continent.\nNing Cheng cleaned himself up, and got out of his room in the rest stop, he was prepared to leave behind some traces of him on the outside of Moon Sand Town. After Tai Shu Shi arrived at the Moon Sand Town, he would know that he had been here.\nNing Cheng had just got out of the small town, when he saw a bunch of people near the entrance of the small town, these people looked like they were having a heated discussion with each other.\nBecause Ning Cheng had a bit of curious nature so he squeezed his way in, there he found that there was a huge sign board outside the town with a notice posted on it.\nThere was huge portrait on the notice board, surprisingly it was his portrait, it also showed him to be carrying a long Spear on his back. The content of the notice was very clear, if anyone had any news regarding the person in the portrait then they had to report it immediately. Just the remuneration of reporting his sighting had a reward of 10,000 Spirit Stones and if it led to him being caught then they could receive a reward of 100,000 Spirit Stones, regardless of if he was dead or alive.\nLooking at his own arrest warrant, Ning Cheng sneered in his heart. He had been in this Moon Sand Town for a long time, so if they wanted to catch him, then they could only dream about it.\n“Hey, isn’t that him, the person on the arrest warrant.” At this point someone immediately found out Ning Cheng and exclaimed immediately.\nBecause of this cry, the surrounding people discovered that the person on the wanted poster was unexpectedly standing amongst them.\nSome cultivators even took out their Artefacts, but they did not dare to rush out and capture Ning Cheng. The imposing aura that they felt from Ning Cheng made them feel that they really were not a match for Ning Cheng, if they forcefully came forward then the only thing that awaited them was death. Spirit Stones were good, but one needed to have a life to enjoy them.\nNing Cheng took out a Flying Sword, and after stepping on it, he did not fly away immediately, instead he said in a clear and resonant voice, “Go and tell that guy who issued the arrest warrant, that it was me who killed Xun Shun, I will be back after a few years. But I will definitely come back to kill him.”\nWith that, Ning Cheng under the watchful eyes of the public, with just a sword flash disappeared from their eyes without a trace, while no one dared to pursue him."

第七十三章
宁城以最快的速度收起他能收起的一切东西，连飞船法器也被他简单炼化了一下收进储物袋，这才迅速离去。
但是两个时辰后，宁城停了下来，他感觉到了不对。 他明明是追着太叔石离开的踪迹过来，到了这里后，却发现踪迹全无了。
宁城又在太叔石失去踪迹的地方寻找了数遍，依然是没有找到半分线索。
半天后，宁城离开了这里，他决定去落雷沙漠边缘等待。 他给了太叔石地图，太叔石要通过沙漠去化洲，就必须要经过地图上标明的入口。
从垣洲进入化洲，必须要经过落雷沙漠，无论你是飞过去，还是走过去。
在落雷沙漠之外，有三个小镇，落雷镇、月沙镇、流萤镇。
每年都有无数的修士，从落雷镇进入落雷沙漠。 除了极少数人想要在落雷沙漠中寻找一些宝物之外，大部分人都是想要通过落雷沙漠进入化洲。 事实上真正能通过落雷沙漠，进入化洲的人少之又少。
里面实在是白骨森森，陨落过太多的修士。
就算如此，进入落雷沙漠的人也从未停息过，一波接着一波。
宁城从寇宏那里得到的简易地图，不是从落雷镇进入，而是从月沙镇进入。 月沙镇较为偏一些，周围沙漠的资源也较少，远没有落雷镇繁华。
这一个月中，他连黑衣人旬顺的储物袋都没有拿出来查看。 主要原因当然是想要尽快赶到月沙镇，到了月沙镇，他不但可以等太叔石，一旦有什么问题，他也可以第一时间逃进落雷沙漠。
一些疲惫的冒险者从外面回来，和宁城一样踏着夕阳的残辉进入月沙镇。
宁城肯定以他的速度，太叔石绝对不会比他先到。 他决定在月沙镇等候太叔石，也好在这里炼化手中的两件法器，同时准备晋级凝真。
无论是那枚发霉的铜钱，还是那件中品飞船法器，宁城都是非常期待，相对来说，他对那柄红色的飞剑倒是并不在意。
月沙镇的息栈和稀稀落落来往的行人一般，也是稀稀落落。
宁城在小镇不起眼的地方找到一个息栈住了进去，如宁城这样不起眼的修士，在月沙镇到处都是。 这些修士一般都会几个月出去一趟，回来后会选择闭关，当他们的修炼资源耗尽之后，会再次离开月沙镇。 就这样周而复始，直到陨落的那一天。
在落雷沙漠寻找修炼资源，能够不陨落的寥寥无几。 虽然知道这样，这种生活依然是众多散修的选择，也或者是他们根本就没有别的选择。
宁城找的这家息栈叫月河息栈，就是在月沙镇，月河息栈也算是不起眼的小地方了。 住在这种地方的，都是散修中更为落魄者。
阵法布置完毕，宁城第一时间拿出来的就是那枚发霉的铜钱。
这枚铜钱将他的长枪法器卷走，让宁城极为惊异。 如果不是他还有七曜冰针和内甲，说不定他都被那个旬顺杀了。
这主要原因是他的对敌经验缺乏，但这枚发霉铜钱的厉害毋庸置疑。
铜钱的炼化极为困难，宁城用了十天时间，也只是炼化了其中的一层禁制，同时他也明白了为什么当初旬顺施展铜钱落他法器如此吃力了。 那旬顺最多也只是炼化了两层禁制，加上自身修为有限，所以他施展起来极为困难。
无论如何，这肯定是一件宝物，而且还是一件不错的宝物。 至于后面的禁制，宁城没有继续炼化，他打算等空闲的时候再炼化后面的禁制。
相比起五行落宝铜钱，中品飞船法器炼化起来要简单太多了，宁城只是花了半天时间，就已经炼化了这件中品飞船法器，同时将这件法器据为了己有。
红色飞剑宁城简单炼化了一下，就丢进了自己的储物袋，他不喜欢飞剑法器。
宁城最后拿出来的是黑衣人的储物袋，在怡水院的时候，旬顺出手显得极为阔绰，所以宁城对他的储物袋很是期待。
宁城并没有花多长时间就炼化了这个储物袋，当他的神识扫进储物袋后，立即就有些失望起来。
按照旬顺花灵石的样子，宁城以为他的储物袋中至少有三四万灵石，事实上这个储物袋中只有一万下品灵石左右。 这还是对方没有买到怜娥和柳含玉，不然的话，这里面最多只有两千多灵石了。
储物袋中倒是有数瓶丹药，还有几枚玉简。 宁城随便拿出一枚玉简，神念扫进去，果然和他猜测的一摸一样，这些玉简都是记载如何采用女修修炼的。 由此可见，这旬顺的师父也不是一个好东西。
将其余几枚玉简都扫了一下，全都是一个类型。 宁城直接祭出一团火焰将这些玉简烧光，他来自地球，无法接受有这种功法存在世间。
得到了一万灵石，加上他自己身上的一两千灵石，宁城决定冲击凝真境。 等他到了凝真境后，想必太叔石也该来月沙镇了。
一枚枚灵石被宁城化为齑粉，散逸的灵气被他布置的阵法阻拦起来，虽然还有一些灵气无法挡住。 但是在息栈中的客人闭关，都是有灵气流转的，也没有人会觉得奇怪。
一个月后，宁城又出去采购了一些食物，再次回到了房间。 此时他已经是聚气九层的圆满，准备晋级凝真。
凝真丹服下，体内的真气立即就躁动起来，宁城知道晋级凝真是将真气转化为真元的过程，心里并不慌忙，自顾运转功法慢慢的转化自己的真气。 他修炼的就是完整功法，真气在聚气九层的时候，就已经开始真元化。
时间在宁城闭关中渡过，堆积在他身边的那一堆灵石也越来越少。 也不知道过了多久时间，当宁城将经脉中所有的真气都转化为真元的时候，他全身的经脉都发出了一阵阵的咔咔声响。
似乎在这瞬间，所有的经脉都扩充了一倍有余。
呼，宁城长呼了一口气，豁然站起。
“这就是凝真境？” 宁城刚刚晋级凝真境，感受到体内比聚气九层更强大数倍的真元流动，不由的惊叹出声。
之前他没有晋级凝真境，总以为凝真境也不过如此罢了。 毕竟他只聚气境就可以斩杀凝真境的修士，可是当他真正晋级到凝真境后，才明白真正的凝真境和聚气境相差实在是太多太多。 他之所以能够斩杀凝真境，完全是因为他没有遇见真正的凝真境高手。
如果有一个和他这样的凝真境，聚气境还怎么打？ 真元的强大根本就不是真气能比的。
算算来到月沙镇已经快两个月了，依然没有太叔石的消息。 宁城决定不再等下去，他要单独进入落雷沙漠前往化洲。
宁城将自己清洗了一遍，走出了息栈，他准备在月沙镇外面留下一些痕迹记号。 太叔石来到月沙镇后，也好知道他已经来过了。
宁城刚刚走出小镇，就看见在小镇的镇口围着一堆人，这些人似乎还在叽叽喳喳的热烈议论着。
宁城好奇的挤了进去，却发现小镇外面巨大的镇牌下贴了一张布告。 布告上一个巨大的画像，正是他的样子，背后还背着一杆长枪。
布告的内容写的极为清楚，有人得到布告中画像者的消息，可立即上报。 上报者可以得到一万灵石的报酬，如果能抓到布告画像者，可得到十万灵石的酬谢，生死不计。 原来是一张抓捕自己的通缉令，宁城看了心里冷笑。
在月沙镇这个地方，也想将他抓住，别做梦了。
“咦，就是他，他就是通缉令上的人。” 此时已经有人发现了宁城，立即惊叫出声。
随着这一声惊叫，周围的人都发现，这个被通缉的人就在他们的眼前。
一些修士甚至取出了自己的法器，不过却没有敢冲上去捉拿宁城。 宁城身上的气势表明了他们都不是宁城的对手，如果强行上去，也只是受死而已。
灵石是好，可也要有命享受。 宁城祭出一柄飞剑，踏上飞剑后并没有立即就走，反而朗声说道，“你们去告诉那个发布通缉令的家伙，旬顺是我杀的，过个几年我还会回来的。 不过我回来是杀他的。”
说完，宁城在众目睽睽之下，带起一道剑光消失的无影无踪，没有一个人敢追上去。

Chapter 0073 – Advancing to True Condensation In A Small Town
Ning Cheng with his fastest speed put away everything, even the airship Type Artefact that Xun Shun came in was directly put in his Storage Bag, after collecting all the things he quickly left.
However, after two hours, Ning Cheng stopped, he felt that something was wrong. He was obviously chasing the traces Tai Shu Shi left behind, but after coming here, he could not even find a single trace.
Ning Cheng tried to find the traces of Tai Shu Shi all around, but even after looking carefully he could not even find half a clue as to his whereabouts.
After quite a while of searching, Ning Cheng finally left that place, he decided to wait for them near the edges of the Thunder Fall Desert. He had already given the map to Tai Shu Shi, and he also knew that to go to the Hua Continent, Tai Shu Shi would have to go through the Thunder Fall Desert, and so would definitely pass through one of the entrances marked on the map.
From the Yuan Continent to the Hua Continent, whether by flying or by walking, one must go through the Thunder Fall Desert.
On the outskirts of the Thunder Fall Desert, there were actually three small towns, Thunder Fall Town, Moon Sand Town and Firefly Town.
Of these three towns, the liveliest and the largest was the Thunder Fall Town. Every year there were countess cultivators arriving here from the Thunder Fall Desert. Besides the handful of people who come to the Thunder Fall Desert to look for treasures, most of the people here come to this town to pass through the Thunder Fall Desert to go to the Hua Continent.
But it was quite a well-known fact, that the number of people who can successfully cross the Thunder Fall Desert and enter the Hua Continent were truly very few. As many people would end up dying in the Thunder Fall Desert, as a result since a long time, this Thunder Fall Desert was also called by another name, the Bone Desert. Because once you went inside the desert, you could see the dense quantities of bones of the dead cultivators scattered around. The number of cultivators who died here were simply too many.
Even then, the number of people entering the Thunder Fall Desert never decreased, and arrived wave after wave.
Ning Cheng had the simple map that he had obtained from Kou Hong, so he did not enter the Thunder Fall Town, but rather entered the Moon Sand Town. This Moon Sand town, compared to the other two towns on the edges of the Thunder Fall Desert, had fewer resources and was far from the bustling atmosphere in the Thunder Fall Town.
Ning Cheng who was rushing with all his might, in one month arrived outside the Moon Sand Town. In this entire month, he never took out the things that he had obtained from the black robed Xun Shun from his Storage Bag to check them out. The main reason for that was of course to arrive at Moon Sand Town as early as possible, once he arrived at the Moon Sand Town, he could then wait patiently for Tai Shu Shi, if there was any problem, then he could easily run into the Thunder Fall Desert at the first sign of trouble.
Mixing himself with some wary adventurers that had also just arrived, Ning Cheng finally stepped into the Moon Sand Town just as the sun started to set.
Compared to the liveliness of Thunder Fall Town, Moon Sand Town looked somewhat desolate. Ning Cheng was certain that with his speed, he would definitely have arrived here earlier than Tai Shu Shi. All he had to do now was to wait for Tai Shu Shi in Moon Sad Town, and while waiting for him he could even refine the two Artefacts that he had obtained from before, while simultaneously preparing to advance to the True Condensation Realm.
Whether it was those old copper coins, or that piece of airship Type Artefact both of them were really good items, and it made Ning Cheng to very much look forward to refining them, relatively speaking, he actually did not care much of the red Flying Sword.
There were very few pedestrians on the streets of Moon Sand Town and even the communication between them was very sparse.
Ning Cheng found a small unassuming place to rest, such type of unassuming dwellings was common for cultivators in this town, moreover such kinds of rest stops were very common in the Moon Sand Town. These cultivators would generally go out for several months for a trip and once they came back they would choose to seclude themselves, only when their resources for their cultivation were exhausted, would they once again leave Moon Sand Town. This went on again and again, until the day that they die.
The resources for cultivation in the Thunder Fall Desert were very few, and not everyone could undertake the task to go out searching for them. Although they knew of this, many cultivators would still choose this life, also because they did not have any other choice.
Ning Cheng was looking with some interest at his rest stop, it was called the Moon River, in this Moon Sand Town, this type of building like Moon River was something very common and would not attract any attention. Moreover, in this building, there were only a few scattered cultivators who looked very deadbeat.
Ning Cheng did not care much about it, after he entered his room, he immediately put up closed sign on the door, while he arranged several Array Formations inside the room, there were Concealment Array Formations, Defensive Array Formations…….
Once all the Array Formations were completed, Ning Cheng first took out the old copper coins. These old copper coins had pulled away his Spear during his battle, which immediately surprised Ning Cheng. If he did not have the 7 Pleiades Ice Needle and the inner armour, then perhaps he would have been killed by Xun Shun.
This was mainly because his opponent lacked experience, but these old copper coins gave him a huge headache.
Refining these old copper coins was very difficult, and Ning Cheng almost took up 10 days just for that, it was only when he successfully refined the Restriction on one of the coins, did he come to understand why Xun Shun had to expunge so much strength and Qi to try and control this Artefact. That Xun Shun was only a cultivator at the True Condensation 2nd Level and coupled with his limited Spiritual Sense, it ended up extremely difficult for him to control it.
In any case, this was really a treasure, moreover it was a great treasure that he could use. As for the Restrictions on the rest of them, Ning Cheng did not continue to refine it, he planned to re-refine it later when he had the free time.
Compared to the Five Elements Treasure Fall Copper Coins, the airship Type Artefact that he had acquired from Xun Shun was much easier to refine, Ning Cheng had only spent half a day to refine it, he not only refined this airship Type Artefact, but at the same time he also acquired the knowledge on how to operate the airship on his own.
As for the red Flying Sword, after just refining it for a bit, he threw it into his Storage Bag, he did not like Flying Swords much.
Then Ning Cheng finally took out the Storage Bag that he had taken from the black robed Xun Shun. Back in the Yi Shui Courtyard, this Xun Shun was extremely generous, so Ning Cheng was rather looking forward to the contents in his Storage Bag.
Ning Cheng did not have to spend much time in lifting the Restrictions on the Storage Bag, but when he swept the Storage Bag with his Spiritual Sense, he immediately became disappointed.
Going by the way that Xun Shun spent his Spirit Stones, Ning Cheng thought that he would at least have 30-40 thousand Spirit Stones in his Storage Bag, but in fact, his Storage Bag only had about 10,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones. If this man had bought Liu Han Yu and Lian’e, then he would then only have about 2,000 Spirit Stones left with him.
But in this Storage Bag there were actually several jade bottles filled with pills, and even more Jade Pieces. Ning Cheng took out one of the Jade Pieces, and swept through it with his Spiritual Sense, it was exactly how he had guessed. These Jade Pieces recorded information on how to use the cultivation of women as their own. Thus from this it could be seen, that Xun Shun’s master was also not a good person.
Sweeping through the rest of the Jade Pieces, Ning Cheng found that they were all of the same type. So Ning Cheng felt disgusted with them and immediately burned them with his Fireball Technique, since he was from Earth, he could not come to accept such methods that existed in this world.
After obtaining the 10,000 Spirit Stones and coupled with his own 12 Thousand Spirit Stones that he had on him, Ning Cheng decided to finally attack the True Condensation Realm. Once he advances to the True Condensation Realm, he would then go out to look for Tai Shu Shi in the Moon Sand Town.
After the Spirit Stones were changed into powder by the usage of Ning Cheng, most of the dissipating aura from the Spirit Stones was blocked by the Array Formations that he had set up previously, although there was a part of the aura that the Array Formations could not block off. However, for the cultivators staying in this rest stop, this circulation of the Spiritual Qi, was not something that they would feel strange about.
One month later, Ning Cheng finally exited his room and went out to purchase some food before returning back to his room again. At this time, he was already at the peak of the Qi Gathering 9th Level, and was ready to finally advance to the True Condensation Realm.
Taking out the True Condensation Pill, Ning Cheng could feel that the entire Qi in his body immediately turned restless, Ning Cheng knew that he was finally truly ready to start the process to advance to the True Condensation Realm. Not feeling hurried in his heart, he started to slowly operate his Cultivation Method and started to transform the Qi in his body into True Essence.
With his complete Cultivation Method, and his cultivation level of peak stage Qi Gathering 9th Level, the Qi in his body in just a short while started to show signs of transforming into True Essence. Now with the help of the True Condensation Pill, which helped in starting the transformation of his Qi, he did not face much difficulty.
During the time Ning Cheng spent in close door cultivation, the piles of Spirit Stones stacked next to him were growing smaller and smaller. He did not know how long he had been sitting like that, but Ning Cheng felt that the Meridians through which his Qi, which was transforming crazily into True Essence, flowed was continuously sending out intermittent Ka Ka Ka sounds. At this moment, all the Meridians in his body expanded to double their sizes almost instantly.
Hu, Ning Cheng took a long breath, and suddenly stood up.
“Is this really True Condensation Realm?” Ning Cheng had just advanced to the True Condensation Realm, when he felt that his body now was several times much more powerful than when he was in Qi Gathering 9th Level, he could not help but exclaim out in amazement.
Before when he had not yet advanced to the True Condensation Realm, he always thought that the True Condensation Realm was just so so. After all, even when he was at the Qi Gathering 9th Level he could kill cultivators in the Middle Stages of True Condensation Realm, albeit with a little bit of difficulty, but now that he had finally advanced to the True Condensation Realm, he found that the True Condensation Realm and the Qi Gathering Realm really had too many differences.
The reason why he was able to kill cultivators in the True Condensation Realm till now, was simply because he had never met a real cultivator of the True Condensation Realm. If he had met with a real cultivator of the True Condensation Realm, how could he who was only in the Qi Gathering Realm match up to them? The formidable True Essence that they possess was basically not something a Qi Gathering Realm cultivator would be able to match up to.
Calculating the time, he had been staying in Moon Sand Town for nearly 2 months, since did not find any news of Tai Shu Shi during this time. Ning Cheng decided to not wait any longer, he would have to enter the Thunder Fall Desert alone and make his way to the Hua Continent.
Ning Cheng cleaned himself up, and got out of his room in the rest stop, he was prepared to leave behind some traces of him on the outside of Moon Sand Town. After Tai Shu Shi arrived at the Moon Sand Town, he would know that he had been here.
Ning Cheng had just got out of the small town, when he saw a bunch of people near the entrance of the small town, these people looked like they were having a heated discussion with each other.
Because Ning Cheng had a bit of curious nature so he squeezed his way in, there he found that there was a huge sign board outside the town with a notice posted on it.
There was huge portrait on the notice board, surprisingly it was his portrait, it also showed him to be carrying a long Spear on his back. The content of the notice was very clear, if anyone had any news regarding the person in the portrait then they had to report it immediately. Just the remuneration of reporting his sighting had a reward of 10,000 Spirit Stones and if it led to him being caught then they could receive a reward of 100,000 Spirit Stones, regardless of if he was dead or alive.
Looking at his own arrest warrant, Ning Cheng sneered in his heart. He had been in this Moon Sand Town for a long time, so if they wanted to catch him, then they could only dream about it.
“Hey, isn’t that him, the person on the arrest warrant.” At this point someone immediately found out Ning Cheng and exclaimed immediately.
Because of this cry, the surrounding people discovered that the person on the wanted poster was unexpectedly standing amongst them.
Some cultivators even took out their Artefacts, but they did not dare to rush out and capture Ning Cheng. The imposing aura that they felt from Ning Cheng made them feel that they really were not a match for Ning Cheng, if they forcefully came forward then the only thing that awaited them was death. Spirit Stones were good, but one needed to have a life to enjoy them.
Ning Cheng took out a Flying Sword, and after stepping on it, he did not fly away immediately, instead he said in a clear and resonant voice, “Go and tell that guy who issued the arrest warrant, that it was me who killed Xun Shun, I will be back after a few years. But I will definitely come back to kill him.”
With that, Ning Cheng under the watchful eyes of the public, with just a sword flash disappeared from their eyes without a trace, while no one dared to pursue him.

"value": "Chapter 216 – Pure Land\nIn the bird’s nest, the nestlings were chirping and waiting to be fed. At the riverside, the flower petals drifted along with the wind, and the fragrance of the flowers was carried by the wind. There was a small village full of spiritual energy, that village had the same vibe as Xiao Chen’s hometown. The lively village was similar to that small mountain village beside the Yellow River. Xiao Chen suspected he was in a dream.\nTwo months had passed in an instant. Xiao Chen’s body was slowly recovering. Although he was in a critical situation, abundant life energy was stored in the nine divinized acupoints. The life energy didn’t rush out all at once, but a little bit would leak out everyday to heal his aging organs. Because of that, Xiao Chen’s condition was maintained at a very subtle equilibrium.\nHis flame of life was still burning, his power was still the same as before. Xiao Chen’s heart was filled with immense battle intent, he wished he could go back to Celestial City immediately.\nHowever, he knew that he was far from strong enough to survive in Celestial City. After thinking about it calmly, his agitated heart gradually calmed down.\nStanding on the stone bridge, he looked at his white-haired self reflected in the water. Xiao Chen remained silent. This time, he was completely and thoroughly defeated…… He had lost too much in Celestial City, too much. His felt completely empty.\nHe had lost faith in humanity. People would fight for fame, profit, romance, love, hate, and enmity, but what for?\nHe lost a friend, Fairsky had betrayed their friendship, he pulled out a sword and attacked him with no regards. He lost Keke, its body and soul were destroyed.\nHe lost two hundred years of his lifespan. That was equivalent to two lifetimes of a normal person. However, he didn’t manage to fill the gaps in his heart. He would never forget about the crushing defeat that night.\nHe ran away from Celestial City!\nXiao Chen had lost too much, he felt a heart ripping pain. He didn’t want to make a childish vow nor shout out his goal. He kept this pain to himself as he was thinking back to those events in silence. He was reflecting upon it calmly.\nHe was too frivolous and flamboyant. His recognition of human nature was too little. Fame, benefits, power, romance, love, hate, enmity…… interweaved to form one huge net that nobody in this world could hide from. He must sharpen himself.\nDoes that mean he has to endure patiently and continue to escape?\nNo! Youthfulness wouldn’t last that long. It was needless to repress his natural instincts. He was a free and spontaneous person, restraining himself would only have negative effect on his life.\nWhat he needed was to reflect upon it. He needed to be even more experienced, to the point that he could be called shrewd and ruthless. He had to become more mature, and polish himself from the craggy corner.\nIt was not a compromise. He was not discouraged. Rather, this was a transformation for the purpose of enriching his life.\nHe had to learn from this crushing defeat. Being seasoned did not mean to lose the drive, or even one’s prime. The passion would never stop burning, those feelings would build up his confidence even more.\nThe only thing that should be changed was his methods, his heart would remain the same forever!\nXiao Chen stood quietly on the stone bridge, thinking deeply.\nQing Qing’s grandfather was taking a stroll and walked towards the stone bridge. The old man was beaming with smiles all day long. He seemed very kind and benevolent.\n“Thinking about something?”\nThe old man chuckled and said, “Experiencing defeat is not scary at all, the most important thing is how you look upon the defeat. If those outstanding individuals never experienced defeat, they would always remain at the level of just ‘outstanding’. We need to go through constant hardships before we come to understand its true meaning. I was also a frivolous youngster during my years. I had stirred up too much trouble because of my arrogance. I truly had too many bitter experiences. Having power is one thing, but how you use that power is the most important point. Don’t be like those who are easily swayed from left to right, but you also must have a superior means to face the storm.”\nXiao Chen smiled and heeded the advice.\n“Elder, how about I treat you to some drinks.”\n“Let’s go then! I almost forgot, the one Qing Qing saved is a millionaire who carries a few hundred thousand gold plates! Even if you buy all the best wine from Granny Phoebe, there will be enough to last for several years.”\nSix hundred thousand gold plates, that was the award money given when Keke won the title of the Southern Wasteland Beast King. Every time he saw these gold plates, he would recall the little thing and experience a heart ripping pain.\nThinking about it, he really was a millionaire. He hadn’t spent the eight hundred thousand gold coins from selling Pasteur. It’s just that… the money were still with the Zhuge fatty.\n“It’s not that I am stingy, but these few hundred thousand gold coins, I really don’t want to touch them. That will only make me feel bad. However, you don’t have to worry. I went to the deep forest and picked up a Nonafrond Grass. I already delivered it to Granny Phoebe. It should be enough to trade for a dozen bottles of the best wine.”\n“Haha… that’s great, that should be enough for the both of us.” The old man laughed heartily.\nXiao Chen sincerely respected this benevolent and optimistic old man. The old man was very amiable, but the depth of his power couldn’t simply be described as unfathomable.\nWhat made Xiao Chen the most shocked was that, in this village, there were more than ten elders about the same age as this old man.\nWhat he learned from the little fatty Oxman was that, this Pure Land was the hiding place of the previously well known practitioners from the Jungle Tribe and the Beastmen. Just what kind of past did they possess, nobody knew. According to Oxman, even his grandmother was respectful towards these people. Using the little fatty’s words, the people at this place were “impressive” figures.\nXiao Chen guessed the elders in this Pure Land must have had extremely glorious past. However, they wanted to live a simple life, thus they gathered in this secluded region.\nNot a lot of people would come here to disturb these elders, other than a few special cases. In regards to the Jungle Tribe and the Beastmen, this place was a true paradise.\nBeyond this Pure Land were numerous Jungle Tribes and Beastmen Tribes, covering thousands of miles of territory. It was impossible to count just how many ancient tribes were in these territories.\nThis place was Northwest of the Celestial City, but within the whole picture of the immortal’s mainland, this was located at the Southwest border. It was close neighbor to the Middle Earth.\nIf one could fly, it would only take one day to get to Middle Earth.\nGranny Phoebe’s small pub was out in the open. There were only a few sets of table and chair arranged in front of the small wooden house. Many elders would visit the pub everyday. They could already smell the fascinating aroma of the liquor from very far away. These were not just any normal wines. Xiao Chen had experienced it himself. These could even be said to be godlike wines that directly intoxicated the very bones.\nAlthough these elders were very kind and amiable, Xiao Chen didn’t dare to slight them. He would smile at each and every elder to show his respect.\n“Xiao Chen, your body is too weak, your life energy is pathetically low. Today, I will teach you a skill and how to refine your body. I guarantee that your life energy will slowly recover.”\nThe Elder Turtle was a beastman, because his beast soul was originally that of a turtle, everyone including Xiao Chen addressed him as Elder Turtle. However, at their current level of power, they already looked completely human.\nThe Elder Turtle’s posture was rather… awkward. He was just like a big turtle crawling in the sky, but his mouth was opening and closing unceasingly as traces of world essence flowed into his mouth like water.\nElder Ye reminded, “Xiao Chen, you should learn this without delay. This is a wonderful technique to maintain good health by seizing the essence of the world. It is a rare ability to maintain long life.”\nXiao Chen thanked them hastily and crawled in the sky awkwardly. He diligently listened the Elder Turtle’s guidance and carefully savour it. He couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration, even their martial arts were, too wonderful for words.\n“Hehe… young uncle, what are you doing?” Qing Qing walked over from outside the village as she giggled.\n“Plop!” Xiao Chen was shocked and fell onto the ground.\n“Hehe, uncle, don’t get too excited. Actually, your posture just now was very accurate. I couldn’t learn it no matter what.”\nElder Turtle stroked his white heard as he said with a smile, “Little girl, don’t make fun of him. Although the posture is not very good-looking, it is a genuine skill that can save your life. Every time I wanted to teach you, you would run away.”\nJust because she was pure, it didn’t mean she was simple-minded. Qing Qing could even be said to be very bright. She had a creative mind. This intelligent girl was the favorite of every elder in this village.\nShe smiled brilliantly and said, “Oh, that’s right. Qing Qing will seek out Elder Turtle to teach me in the future.” Speaking until here, she turned around to face Xiao Chen and said, “Uncle, are you really going to the sacred mountain with brother fatty? That place is very dangerous. You are still in poor health, you shouldn’t take risks.”\nHearing this, every elder in the pub looked at Xiao Chen. Elder Ye said, “There is only a one out of ten chance to survive, not many people dare to take the risk. It is too dangerous.”\nElder Turtle also said, “It’s too dangerous. If I was not forced into a corner at that time, I definitely wouldn’t go there and take my chances.”\nThe beastmen’s sacred mountain, that was the most mysterious land. Legends had it that it was a “Cypreus Furnace” successfully refined by ancestor god Suirenshi. The furnace was supposedly capable of smelting anything in the world.\nHowever, for some reason, the Cypreus Furnace transformed into a sacred mountain and became a place where the saintly souls gathered. The souls of many fallen warriors would gather at that place.\nOf course, that was only part of the secret that everyone was aware of. Legends have it that the sacred mountain possessed even more secrets that even the prophets and ancestors of various beastmen tribes didn’t know about.\n“I really want to go… I want to try and see if I can summon Keke’s soul at that place.”\nXiao Chen did not hide his origin. These elders knew how he managed to make it to this Pure Land.\nGranny Phoebe walked out from the small wooden house. Although she had a head full of white hair, her face was very beautiful. If one said she was senile, that was definitely wrong, but it was not appropriate to say she was young either. She smiled towards Xiao Chen and said, “Yesterday, the Nonafrond Grass you procured was very effective.

第二百一十六章
檐下乳燕，啾啾待哺，河堤雪枫，飘絮飞花，花草的芬芳随风而动，灵气氤氲的小村中，也同时充满了乡土的气息，一切都是那样的生动，仿佛黄河岸口那个小山村，萧晨几疑在梦中。
一晃已经过去了两个月，萧晨的身体在慢慢恢复，尽管寿元流逝严重，不过九大神穴内藏着旺盛的生命精元，虽然没有喷涌出来，但每日间都有丝丝精气流淌而出，滋润着那本已老化的器官，令萧晨的身体维持在一种十分微妙的平衡中。
生命之火依然在跳动，战力也依然还在，萧晨心中浩荡着一股凌厉的战意，恨不得立刻杀回天帝城。
但是，他知道目前远远没有杀回去的实力，冷静的思索后他那颗躁动的心渐渐平静了下来。
站在石拱小桥上，看着水中那白发如雪的自己，萧晨默默无言，这一次他真的败的很彻底……在天帝城他失去了太多太多，心中空空落落。
失落的是对人性的认知，名、利、权、情、爱、恨、仇是为何物？
失落的是情谊，友情如海云天，拔剑反刺，冷漠相对。
失落了两百年年的岁月，相当于两世人生，但却没有点滴刻入生命中的不灭历程中，那不过是一个空洞的符号，一个苍白无比的数字。 仅仅记述了那一夜地惨败。
败走天帝城！
萧晨失去了很多，有一股撕心裂肺的痛，不想幼稚的发誓，不想喝出豪言壮语，心痛唯有自知，他在默默反思，他在冷静反省。 年少轻狂，个性张扬。
他曾经对于人性的认知，太过流于表面了，名、利、权、情、爱、恨、仇……交织成了一面巨网，在这个世间没有人可以躲过，他需要磨砺。
那意味着将要隐忍与逃避吗？
不！ 青春飞扬，无需压抑自己的本性，他是一个自由洒脱的人。 让枷锁困缚己身，只会扼杀他的灵性与生命。
要做的是反思，他需要更加地老练，甚至可以说是老辣，让以往的稚嫩变得成熟，让昔日的棱角稍有些光滑。
不是妥协，不是气馁，而是蜕变，为了让生命更加精彩。
他需要在惨败中汲取经验。 老练并不意味着失去锐气，正是风华正茂的年岁，漏*点不会熄灭。
改变的只是手段，心永远不会变！
萧晨静静地立身在石拱小桥上，思绪飞扬。
清清的爷爷叶老爷子悠闲的踱着步子，走上了石拱小桥，老人整天笑眯眯的，非常的和蔼与慈祥。
“在想心事吗？”
有能力是一回事，但关键要看你如何来发挥自己地能力。 不屑于似那墙头草一般左右摇摆。 但也确实要有应对疾风闪电的高明手段。”
萧晨笑了起来，言称受教。
“老爷子我请您去喝酒吧。”
我倒是忘记了，我家清清可是救回来一个大富翁啊，随身携带着几十万金票，就是去购买王仙婆的极品仙酿，也足够喝上几年地。”
六十万金票，那是珂珂赢得南荒兽王称号后得到的奖金。 每当看到这些金票，萧晨就会想起小东西，有一种撕心裂肺的痛。
算起来他还真是一个富翁了，卖掉巴斯德古矛的八十万金币也没有花出去呢，只不过现在还在诸葛胖子手里。
“不是我小气，这几十万金币，我真的不想去动，那会让我心生惭愧。 不过您放心，昨天我去深林采到了一株九叶龙草，已经送到了王仙婆那里，想必换取极品仙酿十几坛是没问题的。”
“哈哈……好啊，足够我们喝了。” 老人畅快的大笑。
萧晨对这个慈祥、乐天派的老人，发自真心地有着一股敬意，老人非常的随和，但其修为可用深不可测来形容，无法估量其深浅。
最让萧晨震惊的是，整个村子里这个年岁的老人，足有几十名。
从小胖子牛仁那里了解到，这片净土中隐居的是森林族与蛮族的名宿，他们究竟有着怎样的过去无人知道。 ^^^^据牛仁说，他的奶奶从龙岛脱困回来后，见到这些人也都很恭敬，用小胖子地话说，这里地人都是“了不得”的人物。
萧晨猜想，净土中地老人可能都有过无比光辉的过去，只是他们的心性淡泊了，才集体隐居在这里。
很少有人来净土打扰这些老人，除了特别允许外，这里对与森林族与蛮族来说是一片真实的天堂净土。
净土外就是蛮族与森林族的众多部落，绵绵延延的万里疆域内，很难弄清到底有多少古老的部落。
这里相对于南荒天帝城来说是西北，但相对于整片长生大陆来说却是西南边陲，已经紧邻浩瀚的中土。
如果可以御空飞行，想进入中土的话，一日的工夫足够了。
王仙婆的小酒馆是露天式的，只在小木屋外摆了一些桌椅，每天都会有不少老人光顾。 隔着很远就能够闻到阵阵醉人的酒香，这可不是普通地佳酿，萧晨亲身体验过，可谓杯杯皆是仙品，直醉到人的骨子里去。
尽管这些老人都很慈祥与随和，但是萧晨却不敢怠慢，见到每位老人都要笑着表示敬意。
“萧晨你的身子太虚了，生命精元少的可怜。 今天我教一手。
如此炼身，保你精元慢慢凝聚回来。” 龟老爷子乃是一位蛮族，因为本命兽魂为龟，所有萧晨平日随别人那样称呼他为龟老爷子。
就像一只大乌龟一般趴在虚空中，只是嘴巴不断开合，丝丝天地灵气如水一般不断向着他口中涌动而去。
叶老爷子提醒道：“萧晨赶紧学下来，这乃夺天地造化的养生奇功，可谓罕世地长生绝学。”
萧晨急忙感谢，别扭的趴在虚空中，用心聆听龟老爷子悉心的指导，仔细体味一番，他不得不惊叹。 奇功也，妙不可言。
“嘻嘻……年轻的大叔你在干吗？” 清清明慧空灵，黛眉凝华韵。
想到眼下的姿势，萧晨被惊的摔在了地上。
“嘻嘻，大叔不要激动哦，其实你刚才地姿势挺标准的，我从来都学不会。”
龟老爷子捋了捋雪白的胡须，笑道：“小丫头你别打趣。 虽然姿势不太好看，但确实是保命的绝学，想教给你，但每次你都逃掉。”
单纯并不意味着简单，清清可谓聪慧无比，有着一颗水晶玲珑心，这样一个钟天地之灵慧的少女，令村中所有老人都很喜爱与宠溺。
她灿烂的笑着：“是哦。 以后清清会找龟爷爷去学的。”
听到这些话语，小酒馆的老人们都望向了萧晨，叶老爷子道：“去那里地人都是九死一生，很少有人敢去冒险，太危险了。”
龟老爷子也道：“很危险啊，当年我如果不是被逼入了绝境，绝不会去那里碰机缘的。”
蛮族的圣山，乃是一个最为神秘之地，相传乃是祖神燧人氏祭炼成地一个“天地铜炉”，那里可以熔炼天地万物。
只是后来不知道发生了什么，天地铜炉化成了一座圣山，成了天地间圣魂的寄身之所，许多强者陨落后魂力都会归于那里。
当然，这只是众人知道的部分秘密而已，传说那里还有着更多不为认知的上古秘辛，即便是蛮族各个部落的祭祀与先知也不知晓。
“我真的想去……我想试试看在那里能否召唤到珂珂的灵魂。”
萧晨没有隐瞒自己的来历，这些老人都知道他因何而闯入了净土。
王仙婆从小木屋中了出来，她虽然满头白发，但容颜却如玉般美丽，说老迈那肯定是错误地，说年轻也不太合适，她笑着对萧晨道：“昨日，你带来的九叶龙草功效很强劲，足以酿出五十坛仙酒。” 而后她略有关切的道：“既然你要去冒险，这里没有人拦你。
但我们不得不再次提醒你，那里真的很危险。
我教一手防身术吧。” 此刻的王仙婆显得神圣庄严无比，飞旋到天空中，做出各种复杂玄奥的动作，双手不断结印，一个宝瓶凭空悬浮在她的头顶上空，绽放出亿万道光辉，让人不可正视！
叶老爷子对萧晨，道：“快，赶紧记下，这可是传说中各种印法的最高奥义宝瓶印啊！”
萧晨身随心动，聆听着王仙婆地传音，体味着那种妙境，开始结宝瓶印。
王仙婆是森林族人，对于自然法印可谓精通之极，能以体术展出夺天地造化之力。 宝瓶印乃是她结合佛家宝瓶圆满一说创成地最高印法。
萧晨沉浸到了一种空灵状态，感受到了宝瓶印的强大与可怕，他有一种感觉，达到极致境界，宝瓶一动，大有吞吐日月之威。
另一边，清清也如花蝶一般在舞动，纤纤玉指不断结印，一个水晶宝瓶出现在她地头顶上方，她看起来像女神一般圣洁，自语道：“每次看王婆婆结印，都让我有不同的感受，不知道何时我也能够自创印法。”
“资质还算不错。” 王仙婆看到萧晨熟记要义后，给予了这样的评价。
要知道萧晨在修炼一途上天赋是极高的，但在这些老人们眼中似乎才刚刚及格而已，足以说明他们的强大与深不可测。 这些老人们都曾经有着不为人知的“过去”，他们见过的天赋高的修者都不知有多少，而他们自己定然更是其中的佼佼者。
清清明慧聪明无比，笑嘻嘻的对萧晨，道：“大叔还不快买酒，请大家痛快喝上几杯仙酿，到时候他们随便教你一手，就让你终身受用无穷。”
萧晨知道她是好意帮自己，当然不会如木头似的听不懂，立刻买酒请这些老人品尝。
村内许多小木屋的门都被推开了，一听有人要请客，许多老人全都笑呵呵的不请自来。
事实上，这些老人根本不屑于藏私，固定的玄学奥义于他们来说已经算不得什么了，凡是有蛮族与森林族青年来村落中时，他们都会尽心尽力的指点。
萧晨尽管本就掌有玄奥的天碑古法，但是当看到这些老人偶尔展露的法诀时，依然觉得那绝对是最顶级的奥义，如果能够学上几式，相互印证，对他的修炼有着莫大的好处。
这里没有勾心斗角，没有争权夺利，与天帝城相比，这里真的是人间的天堂净土，让萧晨有一股恍若隔世的感觉。 在接下来的一个月中，萧晨从老人们那里学到了几种艰涩难懂的奥义，每当他真正体悟进去时，就会惊叹的产生一种联想，这些老人会不会是神呢？ 怎么能够创出如此妙绝天下的法诀呢？
时间匆匆，萧晨来到净土已经四个月了，身体机能已经恢复的差不多了，处在了一种微妙平衡的状态。 他决定动手，将与小胖子牛仁去蛮族圣山，召唤珂珂的魂魄。

Chapter 216 – Pure Land
In the bird’s nest, the nestlings were chirping and waiting to be fed. At the riverside, the flower petals drifted along with the wind, and the fragrance of the flowers was carried by the wind. There was a small village full of spiritual energy, that village had the same vibe as Xiao Chen’s hometown. The lively village was similar to that small mountain village beside the Yellow River. Xiao Chen suspected he was in a dream.
Two months had passed in an instant. Xiao Chen’s body was slowly recovering. Although he was in a critical situation, abundant life energy was stored in the nine divinized acupoints. The life energy didn’t rush out all at once, but a little bit would leak out everyday to heal his aging organs. Because of that, Xiao Chen’s condition was maintained at a very subtle equilibrium.
His flame of life was still burning, his power was still the same as before. Xiao Chen’s heart was filled with immense battle intent, he wished he could go back to Celestial City immediately.
However, he knew that he was far from strong enough to survive in Celestial City. After thinking about it calmly, his agitated heart gradually calmed down.
Standing on the stone bridge, he looked at his white-haired self reflected in the water. Xiao Chen remained silent. This time, he was completely and thoroughly defeated…… He had lost too much in Celestial City, too much. His felt completely empty.
He had lost faith in humanity. People would fight for fame, profit, romance, love, hate, and enmity, but what for?
He lost a friend, Fairsky had betrayed their friendship, he pulled out a sword and attacked him with no regards. He lost Keke, its body and soul were destroyed.
He lost two hundred years of his lifespan. That was equivalent to two lifetimes of a normal person. However, he didn’t manage to fill the gaps in his heart. He would never forget about the crushing defeat that night.
He ran away from Celestial City!
Xiao Chen had lost too much, he felt a heart ripping pain. He didn’t want to make a childish vow nor shout out his goal. He kept this pain to himself as he was thinking back to those events in silence. He was reflecting upon it calmly.
He was too frivolous and flamboyant. His recognition of human nature was too little. Fame, benefits, power, romance, love, hate, enmity…… interweaved to form one huge net that nobody in this world could hide from. He must sharpen himself.
Does that mean he has to endure patiently and continue to escape?
No! Youthfulness wouldn’t last that long. It was needless to repress his natural instincts. He was a free and spontaneous person, restraining himself would only have negative effect on his life.
What he needed was to reflect upon it. He needed to be even more experienced, to the point that he could be called shrewd and ruthless. He had to become more mature, and polish himself from the craggy corner.
It was not a compromise. He was not discouraged. Rather, this was a transformation for the purpose of enriching his life.
He had to learn from this crushing defeat. Being seasoned did not mean to lose the drive, or even one’s prime. The passion would never stop burning, those feelings would build up his confidence even more.
The only thing that should be changed was his methods, his heart would remain the same forever!
Xiao Chen stood quietly on the stone bridge, thinking deeply.
Qing Qing’s grandfather was taking a stroll and walked towards the stone bridge. The old man was beaming with smiles all day long. He seemed very kind and benevolent.
“Thinking about something?”
The old man chuckled and said, “Experiencing defeat is not scary at all, the most important thing is how you look upon the defeat. If those outstanding individuals never experienced defeat, they would always remain at the level of just ‘outstanding’. We need to go through constant hardships before we come to understand its true meaning. I was also a frivolous youngster during my years. I had stirred up too much trouble because of my arrogance. I truly had too many bitter experiences. Having power is one thing, but how you use that power is the most important point. Don’t be like those who are easily swayed from left to right, but you also must have a superior means to face the storm.”
Xiao Chen smiled and heeded the advice.
“Elder, how about I treat you to some drinks.”
“Let’s go then! I almost forgot, the one Qing Qing saved is a millionaire who carries a few hundred thousand gold plates! Even if you buy all the best wine from Granny Phoebe, there will be enough to last for several years.”
Six hundred thousand gold plates, that was the award money given when Keke won the title of the Southern Wasteland Beast King. Every time he saw these gold plates, he would recall the little thing and experience a heart ripping pain.
Thinking about it, he really was a millionaire. He hadn’t spent the eight hundred thousand gold coins from selling Pasteur. It’s just that… the money were still with the Zhuge fatty.
“It’s not that I am stingy, but these few hundred thousand gold coins, I really don’t want to touch them. That will only make me feel bad. However, you don’t have to worry. I went to the deep forest and picked up a Nonafrond Grass. I already delivered it to Granny Phoebe. It should be enough to trade for a dozen bottles of the best wine.”
“Haha… that’s great, that should be enough for the both of us.” The old man laughed heartily.
Xiao Chen sincerely respected this benevolent and optimistic old man. The old man was very amiable, but the depth of his power couldn’t simply be described as unfathomable.
What made Xiao Chen the most shocked was that, in this village, there were more than ten elders about the same age as this old man.
What he learned from the little fatty Oxman was that, this Pure Land was the hiding place of the previously well known practitioners from the Jungle Tribe and the Beastmen. Just what kind of past did they possess, nobody knew. According to Oxman, even his grandmother was respectful towards these people. Using the little fatty’s words, the people at this place were “impressive” figures.
Xiao Chen guessed the elders in this Pure Land must have had extremely glorious past. However, they wanted to live a simple life, thus they gathered in this secluded region.
Not a lot of people would come here to disturb these elders, other than a few special cases. In regards to the Jungle Tribe and the Beastmen, this place was a true paradise.
Beyond this Pure Land were numerous Jungle Tribes and Beastmen Tribes, covering thousands of miles of territory. It was impossible to count just how many ancient tribes were in these territories.
This place was Northwest of the Celestial City, but within the whole picture of the immortal’s mainland, this was located at the Southwest border. It was close neighbor to the Middle Earth.
If one could fly, it would only take one day to get to Middle Earth.
Granny Phoebe’s small pub was out in the open. There were only a few sets of table and chair arranged in front of the small wooden house. Many elders would visit the pub everyday. They could already smell the fascinating aroma of the liquor from very far away. These were not just any normal wines. Xiao Chen had experienced it himself. These could even be said to be godlike wines that directly intoxicated the very bones.
Although these elders were very kind and amiable, Xiao Chen didn’t dare to slight them. He would smile at each and every elder to show his respect.
“Xiao Chen, your body is too weak, your life energy is pathetically low. Today, I will teach you a skill and how to refine your body. I guarantee that your life energy will slowly recover.”
The Elder Turtle was a beastman, because his beast soul was originally that of a turtle, everyone including Xiao Chen addressed him as Elder Turtle. However, at their current level of power, they already looked completely human.
The Elder Turtle’s posture was rather… awkward. He was just like a big turtle crawling in the sky, but his mouth was opening and closing unceasingly as traces of world essence flowed into his mouth like water.
Elder Ye reminded, “Xiao Chen, you should learn this without delay. This is a wonderful technique to maintain good health by seizing the essence of the world. It is a rare ability to maintain long life.”
Xiao Chen thanked them hastily and crawled in the sky awkwardly. He diligently listened the Elder Turtle’s guidance and carefully savour it. He couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration, even their martial arts were, too wonderful for words.
“Hehe… young uncle, what are you doing?” Qing Qing walked over from outside the village as she giggled.
“Plop!” Xiao Chen was shocked and fell onto the ground.
“Hehe, uncle, don’t get too excited. Actually, your posture just now was very accurate. I couldn’t learn it no matter what.”
Elder Turtle stroked his white heard as he said with a smile, “Little girl, don’t make fun of him. Although the posture is not very good-looking, it is a genuine skill that can save your life. Every time I wanted to teach you, you would run away.”
Just because she was pure, it didn’t mean she was simple-minded. Qing Qing could even be said to be very bright. She had a creative mind. This intelligent girl was the favorite of every elder in this village.
She smiled brilliantly and said, “Oh, that’s right. Qing Qing will seek out Elder Turtle to teach me in the future.” Speaking until here, she turned around to face Xiao Chen and said, “Uncle, are you really going to the sacred mountain with brother fatty? That place is very dangerous. You are still in poor health, you shouldn’t take risks.”
Hearing this, every elder in the pub looked at Xiao Chen. Elder Ye said, “There is only a one out of ten chance to survive, not many people dare to take the risk. It is too dangerous.”
Elder Turtle also said, “It’s too dangerous. If I was not forced into a corner at that time, I definitely wouldn’t go there and take my chances.”
The beastmen’s sacred mountain, that was the most mysterious land. Legends had it that it was a “Cypreus Furnace” successfully refined by ancestor god Suirenshi. The furnace was supposedly capable of smelting anything in the world.
However, for some reason, the Cypreus Furnace transformed into a sacred mountain and became a place where the saintly souls gathered. The souls of many fallen warriors would gather at that place.
Of course, that was only part of the secret that everyone was aware of. Legends have it that the sacred mountain possessed even more secrets that even the prophets and ancestors of various beastmen tribes didn’t know about.
“I really want to go… I want to try and see if I can summon Keke’s soul at that place.”
Xiao Chen did not hide his origin. These elders knew how he managed to make it to this Pure Land.
Granny Phoebe walked out from the small wooden house. Although she had a head full of white hair, her face was very beautiful. If one said she was senile, that was definitely wrong, but it was not appropriate to say she was young either. She smiled towards Xiao Chen and said, “Yesterday, the Nonafrond Grass you procured was very effective. It is enough to brew fifty jar of fairy wine.” After that, she said with slight concern, “Since you want to take your chances, nobody here will stop you. But we must remind you again, that place is truly very dangerous. I will teach you a self-protection skill.”
Speaking until here, Granny Phoebe became very solemn as she chanted, “The universe contain emptiness, the heart harbors the world, grant life to my imagination, shadows produced from my body…”
Granny Phoebe looked very dignified at that moment, she flew up in a whirl and made all kinds of complicated movements. Her hands kept forming one seal after another. A star sign appeared over her head from thin air and let off millions of streaks of light. It was so bright that it blinded everyone!
Elder Ye faced Xiao Chen and said, “Quick, memorize it immediately. That is the highest form of every seal technique known in legends, the Seal of Aquarius!”
Xiao Chen moved his body as his heart desired as he listened to Granny Phoebe’s instructions. While he was savouring all the information, he began to form the Seal of Aquarius.
Granny Phoebe was a clan member of the Jungle Tribe. She was extremely proficient in the laws of nature. She could use her systematic spells to wrest control of nature’s power. The Seal of Aquarius was the supreme technique she perfected by combining it with the Buddhist’s star sign.
Xiao Chen immersed himself in this ethereal state and sensed the Seal of Aquarius’ formidable power. He had a feeling, once this technique reached its peak state, it could swallow up the sun and the moon.
On the other side, Qing Qing also danced like a butterfly. Her slender fingers were forming the seals unceasingly. A crystallized star sign appeared on top of her head, she looked as pure as a goddess. She spoke to herself, “Every time I see Granny Phoebe forming the seals, it gives me a different feeling. I wonder when will I be able to form the seals.”
“Your aptitude is not bad.” After seeing that Xiao Chen had memorized the fundamentals, Granny Phoebe gave her evaluation.
One must know that Xiao Chen was naturally gifted on the path of austerities. However, in the eyes of these people, he had just barely passed. It was enough to indicate how powerful and incomprehensible they were. These elders once had unknown “pasts”. They had seen one too many gifted practitioners, and they were naturally one of those well-known figures.
Qing Qing was very clever, she giggled and told Xiao Chen, “Uncle, why don’t you hurry up and buy some wine. Treat everyone here to their heart’s content, and they might just teach you a skill. Then you will reap endless benefits for a lifetime.”
Xiao Chen knew she was helping him with good intention. Of course, he was not a blockhead and immediately treated these elders to fine liquors.
The doors of many wooden houses in the village were pushed open. Once they heard someone was going to treat them, many elders turned up without being invited with a chuckle.
In reality, these elders didn’t think closed door training was worth doing. Training on a regular basis was not that important to them. Every time a youngster from the beastmen or Jungle tribe came, they would give them pointers heartily.
Even though Xiao Chen was practicing the profound technique of the ancient monolith himself, he still felt that the techniques occasionally revealed by these elders were top-notch abilities. If he could learn a few of them and compare them, it would be very beneficial for his training.
In the following month, Xiao Chen learned a few difficult to understand profound arts from the elders. Every time when he truly comprehended these arts, he would always have this one thought; could these elders be gods? How did they manage to create such powerful secret arts? It seemed like they were not one bit weaker than the secret arts of the ancient monolith!
Time passed by quickly, it had already been four months since Xiao Chen arrived at the Pure Land. His bodily functions were mostly recovered. His state was situated at a subtle equilibrium. He decided to take action now. He’s going to the beastmen’s sacred mountain with Oxman in an attempt to summon Keke’s soul.

"value": "“Lunchtime will start now,” Zhou Jia and Mu Xiaoyun stood at both sides of the door and said at the same time.\n“Here we go. It has begun. I have looked forward to the dishes here for quite some time. The Dongpo Pig Knuckle is said to be quite tasty. So is the dish of Translucent Beef Slices, not to mention the signature dish, Egg Fried Rice,” Miss Feng mumbled to herself while looking at the people that went inside ahead of her.\n“Miss Feng.” The two men behind her said at the same time.\n“I know, I know. I won’t touch food high in calories,” Miss Feng waved her hand and said with an insouciant manner. However, she was constantly counting the people ahead of her to see when her turn would arrive.\n“Well, it’s going to be my turn after another twenty people,” Miss Feng thought that expectantly and securely.\n“Uncle Wu Hai, you didn’t make it, did you?” Mu Xiaoyun said to Wu Hai mischievously.\n“No, I didn’t. Can you help?” Wu Hai nodded his head and then said without hesitation.\n“No. I don’t help with anything my boss doesn’t agree with.” Mu Xiaoyun immediately pouted and refused him neatly.\n“Little Yun, you know, I can actually go there and take care of Boss Yuan. After all, his EQ is too low,” Wu Hai straightened up and revealed a serious manner. Then, he said to her solemnly.\n“I don’t believe that. Even you are taken care of by Uncle Jiawei. Last time, Uncle Jiawei told us that you don’t even know how to pay your telephone bill without him.” Mu Xiaoyun debunked Wu Hai’s lie without hesitation.\n“That’s impossible. As long as I give the phone to the personal staff of the China Mobile Service Hall, they will help me to pay the telephone bill. Besides, Boss Yuan doesn’t need me to pay his telephone bill. I can do something else,” Wu Hai said lightly.\n“But if you go there, you’ll definitely bother my boss. So I prefer that you stay here and wait for Boss Yuan to come back.” Mu Xiaoyun shook her head with strength and safeguarded Yuan Zhou’s interest seriously.\n“Little Yun, you won’t be lovable if you don’t help me,” Wu Hai shook his head and said solemnly.\n“Uncle, you’ll be scolded by Sister Jiang if you do so,” Mu Xiaoyun also said seriously with a straight face.\n“I don’t care.” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and revealed a look of indifference.\n“My boss won’t agree. He’s going there for some proper business,” Mu Xiaoyun explained seriously.\n“Me, too,” Wu Hai nodded his head to express his agreement and then said that.\n“Anyway, my boss absolutely won’t agree,” Mu Xiaoyun pouted and said that. After that, she stood aside and no longer spoke to him.\n“If he doesn’t agree, I will go there on my own.” Wu Hai decided to depend on himself rather than others.\nWu Hai made up his mind to go and attend the exchange meeting. After all, he had accidentally eaten the bluefin tuna last time. Maybe something delicious could be obtained this time, too.\nHe was reluctant to miss the opportunity.\n“It’s really too small inside, but very clean.” Miss Feng looked around meticulously as soon as she entered.\nShe especially looked at the flower rack for dust. After all, that place tended to have more dust than other places.\nAs soon as she looked there, however, she was quite satisfied. It was very clean and bright enough to reflect her image. Not a speck of dust could be seen at all.\n“This way, please.” Mu Xiaoyun led the three people to their seats.\nCoincidentally, the three seats weren’t together. Two of them were next to each other while the other one was separate and close to Wu Hai’s seat.\n“I will sit here and you two sit over there. Don’t worry. I will pay your bill,” Miss Feng pointed at the single seat and said considerately.\n“Miss Feng, you and I shall sit here. Coach Qian can sit on that single seat.” With a simple eye contact, the two men understood the thoughts of each other immediately. Therefore, one of them said straightforwardly.\n“No need, really. You two sit together and I can sit here alone. I like the secluded place.” While saying that, Miss Feng headed for that single vacant seat.\n“Miss Feng, you promised us just now. Please don’t be so capricious,” Coach Qian, who looked muscular and well-built, shook his head and said disapprovingly.\n“I’m not capricious. I’m doing this for your own good. If you two sit together, you can figure out a new plan,” Miss Feng said that with a considerate look.\n“It’s unnecessary. Mealtime is also included in the working hours. And we can draw up the new plan after we get off work and return home,” the cultured man dressed in the business suit took the notebook and said seriously.\n“Also, if you continue to stand there, you will affect the boss’s business,” the cultured man said earnestly to Miss Feng.\n“All right.” Miss Feng turned around and looked at the two people. Seeing both of them appear resolute and not intending to compromise, she could only nod her head to show consent regarding their arrangement.\n“Please take my order.” Miss Feng ordered the dishes immediately once she got seated.\n“All right. Please tell me what you want,” Mu Xiaoyun went up to her and asked earnestly.\n“One serving of Dongpo Pig Knuckle and Translucent Beef Slices for each of them; one serving of Phoenix-Tailed Prawns for each of us; one serving of Silk Twined Rabbit also for each of them and three servings of Egg Fried Rice,” Miss Feng said that while ordering the dishes.\n“Miss Feng, the dishes you are ordering are…” The cultured man in the business suit took out his notebook and prepared to say something.\n“I know, I know. Also, three servings of Jinling Grass for us. This is definitely a vegetarian dish. After all, its name contains grass.” Miss Feng ordered another dish immediately.\n“Okay. Please wait for a moment. It won’t take too much time,” Mu Xiaoyun calculated the price and then said.\n“Um. Thank you.” Miss Feng nodded her head and then sat up straight to wait for the dishes.\n“Miss Feng, the calories of the Egg Fried Rice is a little too high. You can only eat 2/3 of it at most. For other dishes, I will calculate the calories when they are carried out and tell you by then.” The cultured man in the business suit took the small notebook and brought out the results on it.\n“Let’s talk about that later,” Miss Feng neither agree nor refused. She just said that without giving an affirmative or negative answer.\nWhile they were waiting for the dishes, the cultured man in the business suit and Coach Qian were all staring at Miss Feng earnestly in the hope that she would feel ashamed.\nWith the bright color and thick gravy, the moderate-sized pig knuckle was just lying on the bright and smooth plate silently. When it was carried onto the table, it was still emitting the alluring fragrance unique to meat. The main point was that it didn’t smell greasy at all. It could simply tempt people to commit a crime.\n“Here’s your Dongpo Pig Knuckle.” Mu Xiaoyun carried the dish to them. Even before she set the plate down steadily on the table, Miss Feng had reached out her hand and pulled the plate in front of her.\n“Awoo.” She took a bite very quickly. That’s right. She didn’t use the chopsticks when she ate it, but directly used her mouth.\n“Hmmm. The taste is soooo good. It melts immediately upon entry into my mouth. I haven’t savored the taste properly. Let me take another bite.” Miss Feng carried the plate up and straightforwardly took another bite.\n“Miss Feng, Miss Feng. You cannot eat it anymore.” The cultured man in the business suit was so shocked that his notebook even fell on the ground. He didn’t react and only stopped her loudly when Miss Feng took the second bite.\n“All right, all right. Shut up, please. Take a bite of the prawns and taste it attentively.” Miss Feng used the chopsticks this time, but she used the cultured man’s chopsticks. She picked up a piece of the Phoenix-Tailed Prawns that had just been served and then stuffed it into his mouth.\n“Holy sh*t. It’s so tasty.” The cultured man in the business suit couldn’t help swearing because it was really too delicious.\nHe couldn’t help but receive the chopsticks and eat another two prawns.\n“Wait. However delicious it is, you cannot eat anymore. According to your physical conditions, it’s too greasy for you to eat. Please put it down,” The cultured man in the business suit tried hard not to eat more. Then, he put the chopsticks down and said to Miss Feng.\nFinally, Miss Feng lost her temper. She threw away the chopsticks after a sound of “Pa” and shouted at the cultured man, “I spend money to hire you not to let you tell me what I cannot eat, nor is it to supervise my exercises.”\nThe next moment, she turned her head toward the cultured man and Coach Qian, “I spend big money on you so that I can eat and drink as much as I want and don’t need to exercise, yet not get fat!”"

乌海摸着小胡子一脸的不在乎。
“老板不会同意的，这次老板是去有正经事情的。” 暮小云认真的解释。
“我也是有正经事的。” 乌海点头同意暮小云的说法，然后说道。
暮小云噘着嘴，说完后才站到一边不理人了。
“不同意我可以自己去。” 乌海决定自己动手，丰衣足食。
这边，乌海打定主意非要去交流会，毕竟上次可就意外吃到了蓝鳍金枪鱼，这次说不定又有别的好吃的。

“不用不用，我一个人坐清净，你们一起坐。” 冯女士说着就要往一个人的空位那里走。
“冯女士您刚刚答应的，请不要这样任性。” 看起来肌肉发达，身材一流的钱教练摇头，不赞同的说道。
“这不是任性，我这是为你们着想，你们坐在一起能制定出新的方案，对不对。” 冯女士一脸通情达理的说道。
“不用了，吃饭时间也是工作时间，制定方案是回家之后的事情。” 穿西装的斯文男，拿着笔记本认真的说道。
“并且您在不坐下，会影响到店家做生意的。” 西装斯文男对着冯女士认真的说道。
冯女士回头看了看两个人，两人都是一脸坚决，一点不通融的样子，冯女士只能点头同意两人的安排。
冯女士坐下第一件事情就是点餐。
“好的，请说。” 暮小云上前，认真的问道。
“东坡肘子他们一人一份，灯影牛肉他们一人一份，凤尾虾我们三一人一份，再来个缠丝兔也是他们一人一份，蛋炒饭三份。” 冯女士一边点餐，一边说道。
“冯女士您的餐点……”西装斯文男拿出笔记本就准备说话。
“知道知道，再来三个金陵草，这个草肯定是素的，毕竟都叫草了。” 冯女士立刻再次点餐。
“好的，三位稍等，菜马上就来。” 暮小云算好价格然后说道。
“嗯，谢谢。” 冯女士点头，坐直就等着吃了。
“冯女士这餐的蛋炒饭热量略微超过，请你食用三分之二是最好的量，其余的金陵菜等到端上来我会计算卡路里，到时候在告诉您。” 西装斯文男拿着小本子，说出上面的计算结果。
“等会再说。” 冯女士既不同意也不拒绝，不置可否的说道。
在等菜期间，西装斯文男和钱教练都认真的盯着冯女士，企图让冯女士愧疚。
袁州做菜的速度一向是很快的，不过这次先端上来的就是冯女士期待已久的东坡肘子。 色泽洪亮，汤汁饱满，大小合适的肘子就那么静静的躺在光洁漂亮的盘子里，端到桌上的时候还散发出肉类的迷人香气，关键是闻起来还一点不油腻，这简直是引人犯罪。
“您的东坡肘子。” 暮小云端上菜，盘子都没放稳，冯女士就伸出双手，快速的拉到自己面前。
“啊呜”飞快的咬下一口，是的，冯女士吃的时候并没有拿筷子，而是直接上嘴咬了一口。
“唔，太好吃了，入口即化，味道鲜美，还没尝出味道，再来一口。” 冯女士端起盘子，直接再咬了一口。
“冯女士，冯女士，这个您不能吃的。” 西装斯文男震惊的本子都掉了，直到冯女士咬第二口才反应过来，大声的制止。
“行了行了，别说话，你吃一口这个虾，用心感受。” 这次冯女士用筷子了，不过用的是西装斯文男的筷子，夹起一个刚来的凤尾虾就塞进了他的嘴里。 “卧槽，居然这么好吃。”
西装斯文男忍不住爆了粗口，因为太好吃了。
情不自禁的西装斯文男接过筷子，吃了两个。
“等等，这个再好吃您也不能多吃，根据您的身体状况，这个太油腻不适合您，请放下。” 西装斯文男拿出十二分的毅力，这才放下筷子对着冯女士说道。
冯女士终于怒了，啪的一声摔下筷子，看着斯文男，喝道:“我花钱请你来可不是要你告诉我什么不能吃，也不是让你监督我运动。”
下一刻，冯女士讲话头对准了斯文男和钱教练两人:“我花钱找你来，是要你在我大吃大喝，并且不运动的情况下，还不变胖！”

“Lunchtime will start now,” Zhou Jia and Mu Xiaoyun stood at both sides of the door and said at the same time.

“Uncle Wu Hai, you didn’t make it, did you?” Mu Xiaoyun said to Wu Hai mischievously.
“No, I didn’t. Can you help?” Wu Hai nodded his head and then said without hesitation.
“No. I don’t help with anything my boss doesn’t agree with.” Mu Xiaoyun immediately pouted and refused him neatly.
“Little Yun, you know, I can actually go there and take care of Boss Yuan. After all, his EQ is too low,” Wu Hai straightened up and revealed a serious manner. Then, he said to her solemnly.

“I don’t care.” Wu Hai stroked his small mustaches and revealed a look of indifference.
“My boss won’t agree. He’s going there for some proper business,” Mu Xiaoyun explained seriously.
“Me, too,” Wu Hai nodded his head to express his agreement and then said that.
“Anyway, my boss absolutely won’t agree,” Mu Xiaoyun pouted and said that. After that, she stood aside and no longer spoke to him.
“If he doesn’t agree, I will go there on my own.” Wu Hai decided to depend on himself rather than others.
Wu Hai made up his mind to go and attend the exchange meeting. After all, he had accidentally eaten the bluefin tuna last time. Maybe something delicious could be obtained this time, too.

第七十七章 场外援助？
郝仁骑着自行车回到南区宿舍，把谢雨嘉送到3号女生寝室楼，再步行回到自己的7号寝室楼。
这个时候，宿舍刚刚开门，趁着阿姨不注意，郝仁闪进寝室楼。
他回到三楼，进入宿舍，发现赵嘉胤三个家伙还在呼呼大睡。 地上丢着一堆的肉串的小木条，还有几个空的啤酒瓶。
这些家伙……郝仁悄声走进去，拿上自己的毛巾牙刷，准备去洗脸刷牙。
而他手臂碰到杯子，还是带起一些响动，使得睡在下铺的赵嘉胤醒过来。
赵嘉胤喊道。
“呃，是啊。” 郝仁只能承认。
听到对话，周立人和曹荣华也依次惊醒，他们看着拿着杯子牙刷蹑手蹑脚的郝仁，立即问道，“昨晚你干嘛去了？”
“我……那个……”郝仁手里拿着牙刷比划着，支支吾吾，说不出来。
原本还朦朦胧胧的周立人，一下子变得猥琐起来，“难道你跟班长……发展那么快？”
“别乱说！ 昨天回来的时候，过了寝室关门的时间，所以去网吧通宵了。” 郝仁想了想，说道。
“谢雨嘉也去了？” 曹荣华问道。
“她……我不知道啊。 昨天吃过饭，她就自己回去了，我溜达了一下，回来就晚了。”
“嘿嘿，发展上了就不要隐藏了……”周立人坐在上铺，朝着郝仁挤眉弄眼。
“去去去！” 郝仁赶鸡一样的朝他挥挥手，拿着洗漱用具走出寝室。
而睡在周立人下铺的曹荣华是有点不相信，班长这样的大美女，这么快就被郝仁泡上了？
但是最近发生的种种事情，又让他不得不信，郝仁拥有着太多神奇的地方。
“郝仁这家伙，桃花运真是旺啊！”
他们三个也紧接着起床，洗脸刷牙，再跟着郝仁去上课。
经过食堂的时候，他们又正好碰到骑着自行车从他们身边经过的谢雨嘉。
平时总会跟路上的同班同学打招呼的谢雨嘉，今天却匆匆骑车过去了。
周立人故意撞撞郝仁，眼神朝着骑着车，身材苗条又婀娜的谢雨嘉瞄了瞄。
“一会儿到教室，别乱说。” 郝仁警告他。
“知道……”周立人笑的更加猥琐了。
四人进入教室，发现很多人都在议论昨晚的科技讲座，郝仁朝谢雨嘉的方向瞧瞧，发现她跟同班的女生们平淡的交谈着，脸色没有异样。
本来还想叫你打牌的！” 黄剑锋看到郝仁走进来，大着嗓门喊道。
听到这个叫喊，坐在前面的几个女生纷纷回头。
“他昨天跟班长去听讲座，怎么可能回来跟你打牌！” 另外几个稍微知情的男生，起哄着说道。
“都别说了，都别说了……”郝仁坐到后排，劝道。
很快，上课开始。 以为事情就这样过去的郝仁，却发现班级里的窃窃私语，开始蔓延起来。
没一会儿，收到消息的周立人，转身碰碰郝仁，吃惊的问道，“喂，你昨晚真的跟班长一起过夜的？ 我跟你开玩笑的！”
“你哪来的消息？” 郝仁问他。
“前面的女生说的，说谢雨嘉昨晚没回寝室。 而且昨晚阿姨查房她也不在，今天3号寝室楼门口的小黑板上，夜不归宿的名单上面有她！” 周立人说道。
接着，他再吃惊的瞪着郝仁，“你昨晚，不会真的跟她……那啥了吧？”
“怎么可能！”
郝仁在他脑门上拍了一下。 他再看看坐在前排的镇定的记着笔记丝毫不理会周围议论的谢雨嘉，忽然觉得昨晚自己的处理方式也不稳妥。
听到的余荣也在低声议论这个事情，郝仁突然回过头，“好了！ 谁再议论这个事情，我这个朋友就做不成了！”
见到向来是好脾气的郝仁忽然发怒，余荣几个一下子停止议论，有些不解的看着他。
自从郝仁在篮球场把半个篮球队的人都打趴的事迹传开之后，他们2班的男生，甚至是整个7号寝室楼，都对郝仁怀起一丝敬畏。
就算班级里还有其他男生对谢雨嘉有意思，对郝仁有妒忌，但是在郝仁强大的武力面前，谁还敢乱嚼舌根？
况且，郝仁的好兄弟赵嘉胤，可不是吃素的，不仅在学校里朋友众多，而且还是能让篮球队集体受伤之后，还主动向他赔医药费的主儿啊！ 他们都觉得，这个平时大大咧咧的赵嘉胤，身后的背景很强大！
郝仁听到议论声都停下来，不再管其他男生心里怎么想，调整视力，仔细去看坐在前排的谢雨嘉，发现她的耳根红红的，看来她也并不是不在意这些议论。
这段时间，还是跟她保持距离吧……郝仁心中暗想。
郝仁放在桌子上的手机震动起来。
他拿起手机，发现来消息的是一个陌生号码。
打开消息，里面是短促的几个字：中国的煤都是什么？
谁啊！ 郝仁一下子没反应过来，正好心情不太爽，平时这种随手就会删掉的无聊短信，他今天却故意回一条过去：中国的煤都是黑的！
几秒钟之后，消息又过来了。
“掐死你！ 快告诉我煤都是什么！”
看到这种口吻，郝仁才一下子反应过来发消息的是谁。
这家伙，作弊已经先进到用短信了吗？
剩下的自己做，不给回答了。”
没一会儿，又一条消息过来，“新疆有哪几个盆地？”
这死丫头……郝仁不想回答她，但是想到以后还要承受她的怒火，于是妥协一下，发短信过去，“塔里木盆地，准格尔盆地，这次真的不回答问题了。”
“好像还有一个！” 短信立刻又过来。
郝仁想了几秒，“柴达木盆地！ 再不回短信！”
几分钟之后，手机又震动起来。
柴达木盆地是青海的！ 差点就做错了！”
“你自己做不出还怪我！ 错了也活该！
郝仁回过去。 “考什么考，刚考完！ 现在去吃午饭！”
郝仁还是第一次上课的时候跟赵焰紫互发短信，忽然觉得她刁蛮之中，还是有点可爱的。
“下午还有几门考试？” 郝仁想了想，再发一条短信过去表示关心。
没办法啊，这小丫头是“未婚妻”啊，再说赵焰紫父母帮过郝仁那么多的忙，不看僧面看佛面，总不能太冷落她。
“下午还有两门考试，物理和化学，到时候就靠你啦！” 一条欢快的短信，通过手机又发送过来。
我说这丫头怎么突然对我那么亲切，原来是指望我帮他作弊啊……郝仁终于想清楚其中的缘由，回一条短信过去，“自己动手，丰衣足食！”
郝仁也不跟她计较，放下手机，忽然发现窗外，噼噼啪啪的下起小雨。

Chapter 74: Assistance from Outside?Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Hao Ren rode the bicycle and returned to the southern dorm. He dropped off Xie Yujia at the female Dorm Building No.3 and then walked back to male Dorm Building No.7.
The dorm gate had just opened at this time, and Hao Ren sneaked into the dorm when the manager wasn’t paying attention.
He went up to the third floor, entered the dorm room, and saw Zhao Jiayi and the two other guys still sleeping. There were a bunch of tiny wooden sticks from the meat skewers and a few empty beer bottles on the floor.
“These guys…” Hao Ren walked in quietly, grabbed his towel and toothbrush, and was about to wash up.
However, his arm bumped into a cup and made some noises which woke up Zhao Jiayi, who was asleep in one of the lower berths.
“You’re back, Ren?” Zhao Jiayi yelled.
“Uh, yeah,” Hao Ren could only admit.
Hearing their conversation, Zhou Liren and Cao Ronghua woke up as well. They looked at Hao Ren, who was holding the towel and toothbrush sneakily, and asked immediately, “What did you do last night?”
“I…uh…,” Hao Ren held his toothbrush and gestured as he stuttered; he couldn’t say anything.
Zhou Liren, who was initially sleepy, suddenly got energetic. “Don’t tell me you and the Class President… progressed so fast?” he asked.
“Cut the cr*p! The dorm gate was already locked when I came back yesterday, so I went to the Internet Cafe for the whole night,” Hao Ren thought about it and said.
“Xie Yujia went as well?” Cao Ronghua asked.
“She… I don’t know. After we ate yesterday, she went back herself. I strolled around for a bit, and it was already too late to come back.”
“Hehe. don’t hide it if there’s progress…,” Zhou Liren sat up in the upper berth and made a funny face at Hao Ren.
“Get lost!” Hao Ren waved at him and took his toiletries with him as he walked out of the bedroom.
Cao Ronghua, who slept on the lower berth under Zhou Liren didn’t believe Zhou Liren’s speculations. “The great beauty, the Class President, hooked up with Hao Ren this fast?” he thought.
However, many things that happened recently made him believe that Hao Ren had many miraculous characteristics.
“Hao Ren’s peach blossom fortune is too good!” Zhao Jiayi sighed and said emotionally as he saw Hao Ren rushing out.
The three of them also got up, got prepared, and went to class with Hao Ren.
When they walked by the cafeteria, they bumped into Xie Yujia, who rode past them on her bicycle.
Xie Yujia would normally greet her classmates, but she rode her bicycle and passed them in a hurry.
Zhou Liren hit Hao Ren deliberately as he looked at Xie Yujia’s thin yet hourglass figure.
“Don’t talk nonsense when we get to class,” Hao Ren warned him.
“I know…” Zhou Liren smiled even more nastily.
The four of them stepped into the classroom and found that many people were discussing the scientific lectures that took place yesterday. Hao Ren looked at Xie Yujia’s direction and saw that she was talking to the girls in the class as if nothing had changed.
“Why didn’t you come back yesterday, Ren? I wanted to play cards with your dorm!” Huang Jianfeng saw Hao Ren walking in and yelled loudly.
Hearing the shouting, the girls sitting in the front turned their heads.
“He went to listen to the lecture with the Class President yesterday. Why could he come back and play cards with you?” a few guys who knew what had happened said.
“Stop talking, stop talking…,” Hao Ren who was sitting in the back row tried to quiet them down.
The class soon began. Hao Ren, who thought everything would be over by now, discovered that the whispers started to spread around the classroom.
In a moment, Zhou Liren received a message, turned around to bump Hao Ren’s arm, and asked in surprise, “Hey! You actually spent the night with the Class President? I was only joking with you!”
“Where did this information come from?” Hao Ren asked him.
“The girls in the front row. They said that Xie Yujia didn’t return to the dorm last night. Besides, she wasn’t there when the dorm manager came for room inspection, and her name is now written on the non-returned list on the small chalkboard outside Dorm Building No.3!”
Then, he stared at Hao Ren in shock and asked, “Did you actually… do that with her last night?”
“No way!” Hao Ren knocked Zhou Liren’s forehead.
He looked at Xie Yujia, who was sitting in the front row organizing her notes; it seemed like she wasn’t bothered by the surrounding discussions. Suddenly, he felt that he should have dealt with last night’s situation in a better way.
Yu Rong was still discussing this matter, and Hao Ren suddenly turned his head and said, “Stop! If anyone still talks about this, I won’t be friends with him anymore!”
Seeing the good-tempered Hao Ren suddenly getting mad, Yu Rong and others stopped talking right away and looked at him in confusion.
Ever since the incident of Hao Ren beating up half of the basketball team, the guys from his class and in Dorm Building No.7 had more respect for him.
Even though some of the guys in the class liked Xie Yujia and were jealous of Hao Ren, who dared to gossip under the powerful force of Hao Ren?
Besides, Hao Ren’s buddy Zhao Jiayi wasn’t an easy guy to deal with either. Not only did he have many friends at the school, but he also got the members of the basketball team to pay for his medical expenses after the injuries; that made the other students think that he had a powerful background.
Hao Ren heard that all the conversations stopped, and he readjusted his focus and looked at Xie Yujia in the front row. He noticed that her ears were red, and it seemed like she was affected by the conversations around her after all.
“It’s better if I keep some distance from her for a period of time…” Hao Ren thought. Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Hao Ren’s cell phone on the desk vibrated a little.
He picked up his cell phone and saw a text message from an unknown number.
He opened up the message and saw a few words, “What is China’s Capital for coal production?”
“Who is this?” Hao Ren didn’t react well since he was in a bad mood. Normally, he would delete this type of boring text messages right away, but he replied on purpose this time, “China’s coals are black!”
A few seconds, he received another text message.
“I’ll choke you to death! Tell me now what are the coals?”
Sensing the tone of the message, Hao Ren instantly knew who sent it.
“The kids now days are so high-tech. Zhao Yanzi is already cheating using text messages?” he thought.
Hao Ren replied, “Fushun. Do the rest yourself. I won’t answer you anymore.”
In a short time, he received another message, “How many basins are there in Xinjiang?”
“This little brat…” Hao Ren didn’t want to reply, but he thought of the anger he would have to endure later and gave in. He sent a message back, “Tarim Basin and Dzungarian Basin. I am not answering anymore!”
“There should be another one!” another text message was sent back.
Hao Ren thought for a few seconds and replied, “Qaidam Basin! I’m not replying to your texts!”
A few minutes later, his cell phone vibrated again.
“Is there an end to this…” Hao Ren took out his cell phone, and it was Zhao Yanzi’s message again, “So stupid! Qaidam Basin is from Qinghai! I almost did it wrong!”
“You blame me for a question you couldn’t do? You deserve to do it wrong! Go take your exam!” Hao Ren replied.
“What exam?! I just finished! I’m eating lunch now!” Zhao Yanzi replied again immediately.
It’s the first time Hao Ren texted Zhao Yanzi in class. He suddenly felt like she was kind of cute despite her rudeness.
“How many more exams do you have?” Hao Ren thought about it and sent a text message to express his concern.
Well, this little girl was his “fiancée” after all. On top of that, Zhao Yanzi’s parents had helped Hao Ren so many times before. He couldn’t really ignore her.
“There are two more exams in the afternoon. Physics and Chemistry. I’ll be relying on you!” a happy message was sent to his cell phone.
“I was wondering why she was suddenly so nice to me. It turns out that she wants me to help her cheat…” Hao Ren finally realized the reason and replied, “Help yourself, and you’ll be well-fed and well-clothed!” Zhao Yanzi didn’t reply to this message; she was probably mad.

第185章
‘瑶瑶，你的志愿是什么？
‘当一名律师。
‘喔，律师很厉害啊，可以把白的说成黑的；把黑的说成白的，就跟主宰万物的神一样。
‘才不是呢，律师应该是维护正义的才对。
律师，是一个伟大而神圣的职业，它的确可以化腐朽为神奇，将黑白颠倒、将邪恶变成正义、将正义变成邪恶。 但对于瑶瑶来说，律师的含义就是正义的化身。
她却违背了这个理念，在看到御傲天杀了人后利用自己的小聪明成功替他脱了身。
对不起，泰美丝。
在西方，法律之神是一位右手握利剑、左手轻提一架天平的女神，名唤“泰美丝”。 女神表情威严、肃穆，凛凛然不可欺。
有时，女神则被雕塑成蒙着双眼的形象，寓意法律面前不分彼此。 天平，象征着人世间的正义、法律的公正与衡平；而利剑，则寓意法律应明辩是非、斩除罪恶、匡扶正义。
“对不起！” 瑶瑶猛地睁开双眼，映入眼帘的是白茫茫的一片。
这里是医院么？
呵，竟然梦见了泰美斯。
可在她听到李警司上楼的消息时，脑海的第一反应就是不想御傲天出事，当李警司走后她也没有一点因为违背法律最初目的而感到愧疚，反而是确定御傲天安全后，长长的松了一口气。
自己为什么会有这种心里呢？
“醒了？”
顺着声音看向了病房窗口的位置，只见一缕刺目的阳光洒在御傲天身上，令他那高大的身影异常的夺目。
“我怎么了？” 她无力的坐起身，隐约记得自己上一秒还在御傲天的公司。
“你贫血，在我公司晕倒了。”
是他把自己送来的医院么？ “谢谢。”
！”
听着这道略带责备的低吼声，瑶瑶愣了下神。 她……她又闯祸了么？
猛地，御傲天快步冲到她的面前，将这瘦小的身体一把搂入了怀中：“下次，别在给我做这么愚蠢的事情了！
看来自己果真闯祸了吧？ “对不起。”
听到瑶瑶的道歉声，御傲天再度紧了紧搂抱她的双臂，才发现她是那么的瘦小、那么的柔弱，仿佛稍微用力抱她一下就会将她折断似的，叫人如此的心疼。
你对不起的是你自己的身体。 你这样，我会……心疼！ 懂不懂？
！”
‘咚咚’心脏连续抽缩了两下，‘心疼’这个词语从御傲天的嘴里说出来为什么会令她……有种心跳加速的感觉？ 明明是一句在平常不过的词语了，就如同普通的问候一样不是么。
或许是因为他太少说出这种话了吧？ 还以为自己这次又多事了、又自作聪明了呢。 不是就好了。
“御傲天，你以后不要在轻易夺取别人性命了，好不好？”
“呵，你还太小，根本不了解弱肉强食的道理。 在这个社会你不‘吃’人，就要等着别人来‘吃’你！”
御傲天所处的立场就是那样的，他身上背负了太多普通人无法承受的东西，无法涉足的领域。 看来他的世界自己永远不会懂。
缓缓松开了紧搂住瑶瑶的双手，他深邃迷人的双眸慢慢移向了她的唇。
当她注意到他的视线时，心脏‘扑通、扑通’再度加速跳动了起来，下意识的垂下了头，因为她怕……御傲天会吻下来。
然而，他还是将唇印在了她的唇上。
“呃，我是不是来错时间了？”
门口处，突然传来了龙烨的声音，瑶瑶下意识的推开了御傲天，羞涩的垂下了头。
“知道来错了，你还进来？
“我这不是来探望下小萝莉的么，总不能掉头就走吧？” 龙烨边说着边手持着一束鲜花走到了瑶瑶面前：“喜欢么？”
“喜欢，谢谢。”
“呵呵。” 龙烨温柔的笑了笑，把鲜花放在一旁，宠溺的点了点她的鼻尖：“小萝莉，你今天好勇敢呢。”
呃……？
她惊慌失措的向后移动了下身体，略带紧张的目光下意识的瞟了眼坐在床头的御傲天。
龙烨多少看出她的担忧了，温柔的笑道：“小萝莉，别怕。 傲天是不会吃醋的，如果他真吃醋呢，你……就赢了！”
龙烨这话是什么意思？ 为什么御傲天吃醋，自己就赢了？ 这两件事有什么联系么？
她疑惑的眸子再度偷瞄了眼御傲天。 此刻，挂在他脸上的是一抹无奈的笑容，正如龙烨所说御傲天没有吃醋，不过想也知道以自己跟他的关系，御傲天没有任何吃醋的可能。
是啊，关系，自己和御傲天之间是什么关系呢？
有些时候，御傲天对自己好的时候像是大哥哥对待小妹妹的那种感觉；不好的时候呢，又像是完全没有任何交集的陌生人。
只不过不同的是，他们会做着超出兄妹的暧昧事情；又高于陌生人的接触。 反正不管怎么样，这种奇怪的关系是绝对不带有任何男女间的情感的，这点她很肯定，相信御傲天也很清楚！
渐渐的抵达了晚上。
“瑶瑶。”
“小曼，你怎么来了？”
“废话，我最好的朋友进了医院，能不来么？ 御傲天向她优雅的笑了笑，起身走到病床旁，轻吻了下瑶瑶的额头：“我先出去一趟，有什么事打电话给我。”

Chapter 183
“Yao Yao, what is your ambition?”
“Of course I want to be well-known lawyer.”
“Oh, lawyer is so awesome, lawyer can make the black turn to be white, changes the white to black, it just exactly alike Mysterious ruler that able to dictate everyone.”
“It not, lawyer must be someone who uphold justice!”
Lawyer is one of the job that worthy for greatest admiration, it indeed can change something rotten to something magical, makes the black to white, make the bad into good, turn the good to be bad. But as for Yao Yao, the words lawyer meaning is the embodiment of justice.
She had betrayed her principle, seeing Yu Ao Tian killing other person, she even using herself and her little brain to successfully make him escaped from law.
I am sorry, Themis*
In the western world, the goddess of the law is holding sword in her right hand and her left hand is holding scale, she is called as Themis. The goddess expression is describing dignified, respectful and serene, should not take unfair advantage.
Sometimes, the goddess sculpture is image by using blindfolded which means the law without distinction. Peaceful world, as if the world filled with righteousness, the law is govern with fairness, while the sharp sword means the law is providing to reveal the bright side and cut off the darkness, to support the justice.
“I am sorry!” suddenly a pair of Yao Yao eyes are opened, her eyes is seeing wide white color.
Where is this?
She dumbfounded in the bed, she trying to recall just now dream… Huh, so she is dreaming about Themis.
But when she was hearing the news that officer Li rushed to upstairs, her sudden reaction was she did not want something bad happened to Yu Ao Tian, when the officer Li left the room she didn’t even felt little bit guilty of betraying law, moreover when she knew that Yu Ao Tian has been completely safe, she even took long breathe for him.
How could she have this kind of thought in her heart? It was so clearly when first time she enrolled in law faculty, she wanted to be impartial and fair but now she…
“Awake?”
Following the sound that comes from the patient bed near the window, she can see the piercing sun light that illuminating Yu Ao Tian’s body, his tall and slender figure are so dazzling in eyes.
“What happened to me?” she weakly trying to change into sit position, she is trying to recall her memory that just now she still inside Yu Ao Tian’s company.
“You have anemia, fainted at my company.”
Was he sent her to hospital by himself? “Thank You.”
“Don’t say thank to me!”
When Yao Yao heard this shouting sound with guilty feeling, Yao Yao dumbfounded. Did she get into trouble again?
Suddenly, Yu Ao Tian takes faster step, rushing in front of her and he pulled her petite body into his embrace: “Next time, don’t do any foolish things anymore!”
It seems that she really gets into trouble again? “I am sorry.”
Listen to Yao Yao apologizing voice, Yu Ao Tian even hugging her more tighter, he realized that she is such skinny and so weak, very vulnerable just if he hugs her little bit tighter perhaps it might broken her bones, this is really makes other feeling heartbroken.
“You are not sorry me! You are sorry yourself and your body. If you are like this, I will… feel heartbroken (because he dear her so much)! Do you understand?”
Thump Thump
Heart is thumping faster, “heartbroken” this word she never heard it before from Yu Ao Tian’s mouth but why today she… has the feeling that her heart is rushing faster? It is so obviously he speaks very simple words, it not different to the courtesy words such as how are you.
Perhaps he is too less to speak this kind of words? Still thought, this time she gets into trouble again because of she is acting smart. If not it is really better.
“Yu Ao Tian, can you not that easy to take others life for the next time, can’t you?”
“You are too young, you are not understand about the strong eat the weak. In this current world, if you are not “eat” people, you are waiting others to “eat” you!”
It seemed that Nan Lu ever told her, wasn’t it? Yu Ao Tian point of view are different compare to an ordinary people, he has too many responsible and burden at his back which can’t be carried by any ordinary people, place there is no one can enter. It seems that his world forever can’t be understood by her.
Slowly he loosens up his hands that hugging Yao Yao, his deep black eyes suddenly looked at her lips.
When she realized his eyesight, her heart is thumping, faster and faster, and then she bow lower her head, so she afraid… Yu Ao Tian will kiss her.
And then, he really kisses her lips. But this kiss feels so warm, gentle which won’t make people to avoid it, she can’t help and stuck in the middle of it….
“Am I coming at wrong time?”
Outside the doorway, suddenly heard Long Ye’s voice, Yao Yao bowed lower and push away Yu Ao Tian, she feels so embarrassed.
“Since you know you are coming at wrong time, why are you still come in?” Yu Ao Tian word sounded as if he little bit displeased.
“I just coming to visit Xiao Meng Li, just can’t to turn my head and walk away, right?” Long Ye speaking while bringing the bouquet of flower to Yao Yao in front: “Do you like it?”
“Like it. Thank you.”
“Hehe.” Long Ye smiles warmly, he puts the bouquet of fresh flower beside, softly he pinched her nose: “Xiao Meng Li, today you are so brave.” After said, he kissed Yao Yao’s forehead without waiting for her reaction.
Uh…?
She is panic to move her body keeps moving, she looked so nervously looking at Yu Ao Tian who is not far from her bed.
Long Ye can see her nervous, gently said: “Xiao Meng Li, don’t be afraid. Yu Ao Tian won’t be jealous, if he really jealous, it means that…you are the winner!”
What does Long Ye means? Why Yu Ao Tian jealous and then she is the winner? Do these two matters have correlations?
At this moment, his expression is showing helplessly and also smiling face, as if what was Long Ye said is right that Yu Ao Tian won’t be jealous, but after she thinks for while about her relationship with Yu Ao Tian, there is no reason for Yu Ao Tian to get jealous.
That is right, relationship, what kind of relationship she has with Yu Ao Tian?
There is time, Yu Ao Tian kindness is more alike big brother that dearly his younger sister, that kind of feeling, but there is also a time, both of them are not more than strangers.
But at different times, both of them can do many things that exceed brother and sister relationship, but sometimes they can act worst than strangers. Whatever it is, this kind of strange relationship isn’t involved the relationship between man and woman emotions (love feeling between man and woman), this point she knows it very well, she believes Yu Ao Tian also clear with this!
Finally night comes.
“Yao Yao.”
“Xiao Man, how can you come?”
Yu Ao Tian looked at her with elegant smiles, raised his body and walking to the bed side, softly and gently he kisses Yao Yao’s forehead: “I go out for while, if there is something just phone me.”

"value": "Chapter 255: The Descendants\nWhen Cillin cut down the fake Gen Xingchen in one strike, there was a person, no, a robot that looked exactly the same as one of the missing scholars standing not far away from the window. The fake scholar ran off, and Cillin gave chase while jumping from roof to roof. The reason he hadn’t used a hoverboard was because the airspace was too limited right now. He could be targeted from all sides while he was flying, and a hoverboard ultimately wasn’t as nimble as his own body. To be safe, he decided to rely on his own two legs.\nThere was a large desert just outside the city. Assuming that the sea beasts somehow made all the way to the inner land, the desert would serve as a natural defense line and severely hamper the sea beasts’ progress. The sea beasts couldn’t live without water, so the desert was literally their most disliked environment.\nThere was nothing and no one in the desert except a couple of lookouts set some distance away from each other. It was incredibly empty.\nCillin was wearing a tracker, so technically Pistura and the others could detect him wherever he went. However, the only thing that greeted Pistura on his laptop was a complete blank. This meant that the tracker signal was completely jammed, and they couldn’t detect it on the global satellite network or the private channels.\n“The satellite probes and global radars have all been tampered with, senior brother. All systems are temporarily paralyzed.” Goryeo informed Pistura through his communicator.\n“How long will it take for them to recover?”\n“... I don’t know. The technicians are still making no progress. I’ve already talked to Teacher Guan about this, and someone from the RAS will remote teach them how to fix things later. There’s no telling when the systems will come back up though.”\n“Understood. Now get moving and look around the desert!”\n“Got it.”\nPistura just received news that someone had spotted Cillin running towards the desert. However, the witness wasn’t sure which direction Cillin was heading to, and he wasn’t able to catch up to Cillin because the latter was moving too quickly.\nAt this point the three disciples had cursed Cillin a thousand times in their heads already. They had told him many, many times not to move out of their sight, but the moment the attack began that worrisome bastard immediately ran off to god knows where! Wasn’t he afraid of being kidnapped?!\nMental complaints aside, they did their best to find Cillin. He was their junior, and they could hardly justify themselves if something really did happen to Cillin.\n…\nCillin was slowly being attacked by the enemy after he set foot into the desert. There were a lot of robots hiding here such as robot scorpions, robot lizards, robot eagles and so on. Not only could they adjust their skin color so they looked the same as their environment, they could even turn invisible entirely. However, their ability to go invisible was ineffective against Cillin because he was very sensitive towards magnetic fields. The robots used magnetic fields to distort the air and light around them to achieve invisibility, but Cillin was capable of sensing even the tiniest changes in a magnetic field with a bit of concentration.\nCillin kept running while avoiding the laser beams fired by the enemy robots at his direction. Those he couldn’t avoid were blocked using Oskulos’ blade.\nThere weren’t many blades out there that could block laser beams. Oskulos’ blade was one of the rare few.\nCillin cut a charging robot lizard in half and pushed the ground with his right leg. An instant later, a hole appeared where he stood as yellow sand melted and turned black. Cillin plunged his knife into the ground before he even landed and lifted the thing that was hiding beneath the sand. The tiny, half meter long snake that looked exactly like the sand spat a mouthful of corrosive acid at Cillin’s face, but the hunter dodged sideways before cutting it cleanly in half. tIt was clear from the cut surface of the decapitated snake that it was mechanical.\nA huge gust of wind quickly caused the air to become covered in sand, but the little change in environment didn’t impact the battle between man and robot. A mere sandstorm wasn’t going to stop these animalistic robots from attacking.\nEven Cillin had to admit that it was quite difficult to avoid the attacks, kill any enemies that came too close and chase after the fake scholar all at the same time. However, after they had completely left the city, the fake scholar suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around to face Cillin. At the same time, he transformed into an incredibly beautiful woman wearing a V-neck shirt that revealed her cleavage in full.\n“I didn’t think you’d be able to follow me all the way here.” Even her voice was full of magnetic charm.\nCillin stopped not far away from the robot and cut a robot lizard in half without even bothering to look behind himself.\n“Isn’t this exactly what you wanted in the first place? Why have you led me all the way here?”\n“Do you really not know?” The robot giggled softly before lowering her eyes. “We were going to get the sea blue formulas from you, but… my master’s mind has changed.”\nWhen the robot looked up once more, the sand behind her suddenly moved and gathered around Cillin. When the things hiding beneath the sand rose to the surface, they slowly took on human forms that Cillin was very familiar with: Pistura, Fu Qingqing, Goryeo, Guan Feng, Gen Xingchen…\nCillin’s hands were very steady though. He cut through the robots without hesitation as if he didn’t recognize these faces at all.\nRobots were robots, and humans were humans. Even if a robot had taken on a human’s face and worn eyes that looked a bit like the real thing, they could never be identical to the actual person or replace them in any way. To Cillin, it was like two parallel lines that could never intersect with each other.\nThe robots turned into old people, children, more familiar faces and so on. Cillin cut them all in half without showing any emotion at all.\n“Tsk tsk, now I feel you are much more of a robot than we are.” The robot leader said, “Alright, I believe we can have a proper conversation now.”\nThe robot leader waved a hand, and the rest of the robots stopped attacking and backed away from Cillin.\nCillin withdrew his blade and stood still just like before. The difference between then and now was that the floor was littered with robot corpses.\n“It’s pointless for you to hold them captive. They don’t know about the sea blue gold formulas, and the empire and the RAS won’t tell you anything,” Cillin said.\nThe robot leader knew that Cillin was referring to the two kidnapped RAS scholars, but she didn’t provide an answer immediately. Instead, she said, “You’ve been here for around two weeks, haven’t you? You must have witnessed the war on this planet and learned about the human’s individual combat strength and military equipment.”\nCillin stared at her wordlessly. He didn’t know what the robot leader was trying to say.\nThe robot leader continued, “Compared to the RAS, you can easily say that the weapons on this planet are several leagues behind times. That minor noble kept all the power to himself and refused to share it with any external forces, even if it meant that the citizens of this planet had to live with a constant warfare. Of course, the citizens have no complains because of long term brainwashing and having no idea how far the outside technology has progressed compared to their own. War has made them numb and unreceptive after all. However, that will change starting today.”\nThe robot leader opened her palm as a hologram that was five meters long and three meters wide abruptly winked into existence. It was a display of the war that was happening inside the city right now. The three armies was currently fighting against the robots, and brilliant-looking laser and particle beams filled the entire screen. Even the locals who had evacuated from the war zone could see them from a distance.\nThe robot leader then opened her other palm and displayed a battle scene between the locals and the sea beasts. Cillin himself had watched them while he was going through the network.\n“A villager who was isolated from the outside world won’t realize just how poor and backward they truly are, but when the outside world broke the village’s peace in the name of defending the weak and supporting progress, realization and the sense of inferiority will hit them like a hammer. Maybe now the citizens who’re hiding at the distance will think: will the sea beasts still be a threat if we have this level of equipment?”\n“You sure talk a lot of nonsense.” Cillin said. He didn’t voice any reflections after listening to the robot’s speech.\nA human is a creature who will waver when their sentimentality is triggered, and if they wavered once they can waver a second time. This meant that the robot was planning to move on to another subject, attempt to influence his emotions again and crack open his mental defenses step by step.\nThe robot leader smiled helplessly when she saw his reaction. “You really are more like a prototype.”\n“Prototype? Does that mean you are the descendant of a line?” Cillin asked.\nThe robot declared proudly, “Yes, we are the descendant. We think like a human, but we function as a robot.”\nThe decapitated parts of the robots that Cillin had cut in half earlier started joining back together until not a blemish could be seen on their metallic surface. The robots that he had cut from head to toe remained immobile, however.\nCillin raised his gun and opened fired at the head of a newly recovered robot. Bang!\nThe shot caused the robot’s entire head to explode. Without its head, the robot reacted once mechanically before it stopped moving entirely. The robot leader thought that it was an act of provocation.\n“I don’t want to waste time with you. I don’t sense a shred of sincerity in you at all.” Cillin said slowly.\nSincerity?\nThe angry look on the robot leader’s face instantly turned into a smile. “Does that mean you’re willing to turn in the sea blue gold formulas?”\n“Show me the two hostages.” Cillin said.\n“Acceptable.” The robot leader stretched out an arm as the image on the hologram turned into two scholars sealed inside two translucent pods. It looked like they were unconscious.\nCillin shook his head when he saw this. “I don’t trust your images, it is only too easy for you robots to tamper with an image. I’m also certain that’s why the three armies still can’t locate me even now.”\n“You sure are a crafty one. I knew you wouldn’t tell us the sea blue gold formulas so easily.” The robot leader withdrew her arm while replying.\n“How credibility do you think Black Viper has?” Cillin countered.\nThe robot leader stared at Cillin for five seconds straight. Finally, she smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll take you to them.”\nRight after she said this, the beautiful robot turned into an eagle and took to the air.\nThis time, Cillin activated his hoverboard and chased after the eagle.\nThe eagle landed on a sand dune before letting out a cry. One third of the sand dunes started transforming into two robots that were guarding two translucent pods in a crouching position, and inside the pods were the two old scholars everyone was looking for. Although the hostages were still unconscious, Cillin could see and judge from their wrist pulse and venous pressure that it was just a normal coma. Their lives weren’t in danger.\n“Now that you’ve seen them, it’s your turn to show me your sincerity.” The eagle on the sand dune said. Suddenly, it turned and looked at a certain direction as the remaining two-thirds of the sand dune suddenly moved and transformed into all kinds of robots. The whole thing was made up of robots!\nGoryeo and Fu Qingqing was following closely behind.\nThe eagle didn’t look angry or anxious at the arrival of Guan Feng’s three disciples. On the contrary, it smiled at Cillin and said, “Your senior brothers and sisters are here, boy. Say, what do you think will happen when my subordinates clash against the three of them?”"

第二五五章
那机器人见到西林劈掉假的原星辰之后便往远处跑去，西林在后面紧追而上。 西林没有用飞滑，而是和那个机器人一样直接从居民楼屋顶跳跃而去的，毕竟在在这里空中的限制太多，太混乱，稍一不注意会成为众矢之的，飞滑再灵活也灵活不过西林本人，所以为了安全起见，西林还是用自己的腿来得方便。 那机器人速度很快，毕竟不像人那样有一个呼吸极限，他只要有能量，就能一直以同样的高速跑下去。
在城外，有一片大沙漠，这篇大沙漠就像是一道天然防线，就算海兽最后能够攻到内陆的这里来，也会被这片沙漠严重阻碍，海兽离不开水，而沙漠环境是海兽最不喜欢的。
所以，沙漠中，除了隔一段距离就建造一个观测站之外，并没有什么人活动。 空旷无比。
这个机器人的目标就是这片沙漠。 原本西林身上是安装了追踪器的。 皮斯图拉看着手上的显示屏，上面根本就没有任何信号显示。
“师兄，卫星探测和全球扫描都被动手脚了，处于暂时瘫痪状态。” 通讯器中戈尔约对皮斯图拉说道。
“多长时间才能恢复？”
“……不知道，技术人员现在还没有任何进展，我联络了关导那边，待会儿会有皇家科学院的人远程指导修复。 但是到底什么时候能够恢复也不能确定。”
“行了，赶紧找，沙漠那边！”
“好。”
刚才皮斯图拉收到消息，有人见到西林往沙漠那边跑了。 但是具体往沙漠哪儿并不清楚，速度太快，没追上。
现在皮斯图拉几人心里将西林骂了千百遍，这混小子果然不是个让人省心的家伙，这之前都跟他说过多少遍了千万别跑出大家的视线。 结果呢？
！ 虽然对西林很有意见，但是皮斯图拉还是尽力去找，毕竟是自己的师弟。
西林进入沙漠之后。
渐渐开始受到攻击，沙漠里藏着很多机械物。 机器蝎子，机器蜥蜴，机器鹰等等，而且它们还能该表自己的体色，让它们与周围的环境保持一致。
不仅能够变色，这些机器物还能够隐身。
不过隐身对于西林来说并不算什么，他能够看到隐身的机器物。
能够挡住激发光弹的刀并不多，西林手上这把算一个。 挥手劈断一条冲过来的机械蜥蜴，西林右脚用力跳开，下一刻，在他所站的地方出现了一个被腐蚀的洞，黄沙发出嗤嗤的声音，被溶解，并且变成黑色。 西林在落地之前反手挥刀切入沙面之下，将下面藏着的东西挑出来。
大风刮过，卷起阵阵黄沙，弥漫漫天遮挡了视线，但是战斗还是在继续，这些机械动物可不会因为风沙的原因而停止过攻击。
在真正远离城市之后，那个人影突然停了下来，转身看向西林。 在转身的同时，那个机器人的样子由老院士变成一个娇艳的美妇，眉眼之间风情无限，胸前的衣衫v字开口露出饱满的丰腴。
“没想到你竟然能能够追到这里。” 连声音都充满了魅惑的磁力。
西林站在它不远处，看都没看身后反手一刀将一条机器蝎子劈成两半。
“这不正是你的目的吗？ 你将我引到这里来又是为什么？” “你真不知道？”
那机器人低声娇笑，慢慢垂下眼，“其实，原本是想从你这里得到海蓝金的其他几种配方的，但是现在……主人改主意了。”
那机器人说完又重新抬起眼，在抬眼的同时，它身后的沙漠出现了异动，沙地上一个个突起迅速朝这边汇集过来。 在冲出沙面的时候，慢慢变成一个个人形。
但是西林的手很稳，挥刀利落，根本没有丝毫犹豫，就像这些面孔根本不认识似的。
机器就是机器，与人不同。 即便变成人的脸，即便眼神有那么点相似，那也仅仅只是相似，仅此而已。 不也能取代，不可能代替，在西林眼中，这根本就是不可重合的两个平面，没有交点。
老人。 小孩，熟人，每一个角色，西林在将他们一劈为二的时候眼神没有半点波动。
“啧啧。 我觉得你比我们更像机器人。” 原来的那个机器人说道，“好了。
我想我们改好好谈一谈了。” 那机器人挥了挥手，其他机器人都停止对西林的进攻。
退回。 西林收刀，站在那里，一如之前。 只留下一地的发出嗞嗞声响的机械躯体。
“他们根本不知道海蓝金的配方，你抓了他们也没用。 帝国和皇家科学院也不会透露半点。”
那机器人知道西林所说的就是那两个被掳走的皇家科学院的院士，但是并没有直接回答这个问题。 而是问道：“你来这个星球也有十多天了，见识到了之前的人兽大战，肯定也了解这颗星球上的人均战力和军队武器配备。”
西林只是看着它，没有出声，不知道这家伙到底是个什么意思。
那机器人继续说道：“这里的人手上的武器相比于皇家科学院的武器研究所的武器可以说是低好几个级别，以前是那个小贵族一人掌权，一直防备星球外其他势力插手，即便这颗星球上的居民一直过着战乱不息的生活。 当然，经过长期洗脑也不知道星球外到底发展到什么层次的居民们也没有什么怨言，战争已经让他们变得麻木。
但是，这一次之后，他们的思想会改变。” 说着那机械人伸出手，手心一个投影仪弹出长五米宽三米的光屏，光屏上显示的影像是现在城里面正进行着的战争。 三方军队和机器人的战争。
而从机器人另一只手弹出的光屏上则是本地人和海兽战斗的画面，这些西林也通过网络看过。 很显然，差距，这就是差距。
“就像一个与世隔绝的偏远山区的人，只要不接触外界，他们也不会觉得自己有多穷多落后，但是当外界打着扶弱支持发展的旗号打破这个小山区的宁静的时候，这里的人才会发觉自己的贫穷，体会到一种所谓的自卑的东西。 或许这个时候，躲在远处的那些居民会想：如果有这样的武器装备，他们还会被海兽欺负吗？”
“你废话真多。” 西林说道。
人，一旦开始感性，就会产生动摇，动摇了一次就会有第二次，那么接下来机器人会说另一个话题，来带动西林的情绪，然后一步步撬开西林的心理防线。
那机器人看西林这样的反应，无奈一笑，“你果然更像一个原始种的机器人。”
“原始种？ 那是不是说，你们算进化种？” 西林说道。
那机器人傲然道：“对，我们是进化种机器人。 我们有人类的思想，却有机器人的能力。”
随着那机器人的话音，被西林劈成两半的机器人，重新合起来，然后切口开始逐渐修复，修复的部分丝毫看不出痕迹。
西林抬手给了刚恢复完毕的一个机器人头部一枪。
射入机器人头部的子弹产生局部爆炸，整个机器人头部都炸成碎片。 没有了头部的机器人站在那里机械地反应了一下，然后就没了动静。
西林的这一举动在那美艳机器人看来就是一种挑衅。 “我不想浪费时间，你一点诚意都没有。”
诚意？
原本显示出怒意的美艳机器人迅速转换为笑脸，“你愿意给出海蓝金的配方？”
“可以。”
美艳机器人伸出手，光屏上的影像显示出被封在两个透明舱内的老院士，看上去已经晕了。
西林看到影像后摇摇头，“我不相信你们的影像，你们机器人要在这上面动手脚太简单了，我相信现在三方军队的人找不到我，就是你们在通信检测网络上使绊子。”
“你心眼倒是多，我也不相信你会这么简单就说出海蓝金的配方。” 美艳机器人收回手，说道。
“‘黑蝰’又有多少信用度？”
西林反问。 美艳机器人盯着西林盯了五秒，蓦地一笑，“好，我带你去。”
话音刚落，美艳机器人又变成一只飞鹰飞起。
西林这次动了飞滑，跟着飞鹰飞去。
透明舱里，正是那两个老院士。 虽然昏迷着，但西林能够看到他们手腕上的脉搏跳动，通过脉搏跳动和静脉血压估测，这两人只是普通的昏迷，并没有生命危险。
“看过了就显示出你的诚意吧。” 落在沙丘上的那只飞鹰说道。
而在皮斯图拉后面，戈尔约和傅轻轻紧跟其后。
对于皮斯图拉三人追过来这里，飞鹰非但没有紧张，没有生气，反而露出笑意。 “小子，你师兄师姐过来了，你说，他们三个与我的这些部下们相碰，会怎样？”

Chapter 255: The Descendants
When Cillin cut down the fake Gen Xingchen in one strike, there was a person, no, a robot that looked exactly the same as one of the missing scholars standing not far away from the window. The fake scholar ran off, and Cillin gave chase while jumping from roof to roof. The reason he hadn’t used a hoverboard was because the airspace was too limited right now. He could be targeted from all sides while he was flying, and a hoverboard ultimately wasn’t as nimble as his own body. To be safe, he decided to rely on his own two legs.
There was a large desert just outside the city. Assuming that the sea beasts somehow made all the way to the inner land, the desert would serve as a natural defense line and severely hamper the sea beasts’ progress. The sea beasts couldn’t live without water, so the desert was literally their most disliked environment.
There was nothing and no one in the desert except a couple of lookouts set some distance away from each other. It was incredibly empty.
Cillin was wearing a tracker, so technically Pistura and the others could detect him wherever he went. However, the only thing that greeted Pistura on his laptop was a complete blank. This meant that the tracker signal was completely jammed, and they couldn’t detect it on the global satellite network or the private channels.
“The satellite probes and global radars have all been tampered with, senior brother. All systems are temporarily paralyzed.” Goryeo informed Pistura through his communicator.
“How long will it take for them to recover?”
“... I don’t know. The technicians are still making no progress. I’ve already talked to Teacher Guan about this, and someone from the RAS will remote teach them how to fix things later. There’s no telling when the systems will come back up though.”
“Understood. Now get moving and look around the desert!”
“Got it.”
Pistura just received news that someone had spotted Cillin running towards the desert. However, the witness wasn’t sure which direction Cillin was heading to, and he wasn’t able to catch up to Cillin because the latter was moving too quickly.
At this point the three disciples had cursed Cillin a thousand times in their heads already. They had told him many, many times not to move out of their sight, but the moment the attack began that worrisome bastard immediately ran off to god knows where! Wasn’t he afraid of being kidnapped?!
Mental complaints aside, they did their best to find Cillin. He was their junior, and they could hardly justify themselves if something really did happen to Cillin.

Not only could they adjust their skin color so they looked the same as their environment, they could even turn invisible entirely.

Cillin kept running while avoiding the laser beams fired by the enemy robots at his direction. Those he couldn’t avoid were blocked using Oskulos’ blade.
There weren’t many blades out there that could block laser beams. Oskulos’ blade was one of the rare few.
Cillin cut a charging robot lizard in half and pushed the ground with his right leg. An instant later, a hole appeared where he stood as yellow sand melted and turned black. Cillin plunged his knife into the ground before he even landed and lifted the thing that was hiding beneath the sand. The tiny, half meter long snake that looked exactly like the sand spat a mouthful of corrosive acid at Cillin’s face, but the hunter dodged sideways before cutting it cleanly in half. tIt was clear from the cut surface of the decapitated snake that it was mechanical.
A huge gust of wind quickly caused the air to become covered in sand, but the little change in environment didn’t impact the battle between man and robot. A mere sandstorm wasn’t going to stop these animalistic robots from attacking.
Even Cillin had to admit that it was quite difficult to avoid the attacks, kill any enemies that came too close and chase after the fake scholar all at the same time. However, after they had completely left the city, the fake scholar suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned around to face Cillin. At the same time, he transformed into an incredibly beautiful woman wearing a V-neck shirt that revealed her cleavage in full.
“I didn’t think you’d be able to follow me all the way here.” Even her voice was full of magnetic charm.
Cillin stopped not far away from the robot and cut a robot lizard in half without even bothering to look behind himself.
“Isn’t this exactly what you wanted in the first place? Why have you led me all the way here?”
“Do you really not know?” The robot giggled softly before lowering her eyes. “We were going to get the sea blue formulas from you, but… my master’s mind has changed.”
When the robot looked up once more, the sand behind her suddenly moved and gathered around Cillin. When the things hiding beneath the sand rose to the surface, they slowly took on human forms that Cillin was very familiar with: Pistura, Fu Qingqing, Goryeo, Guan Feng, Gen Xingchen…
Cillin’s hands were very steady though. He cut through the robots without hesitation as if he didn’t recognize these faces at all.
Robots were robots, and humans were humans. Even if a robot had taken on a human’s face and worn eyes that looked a bit like the real thing, they could never be identical to the actual person or replace them in any way. To Cillin, it was like two parallel lines that could never intersect with each other.
The robots turned into old people, children, more familiar faces and so on. Cillin cut them all in half without showing any emotion at all.
“Tsk tsk, now I feel you are much more of a robot than we are.” The robot leader said, “Alright, I believe we can have a proper conversation now.”
The robot leader waved a hand, and the rest of the robots stopped attacking and backed away from Cillin.
Cillin withdrew his blade and stood still just like before. The difference between then and now was that the floor was littered with robot corpses.
“It’s pointless for you to hold them captive. They don’t know about the sea blue gold formulas, and the empire and the RAS won’t tell you anything,” Cillin said.
The robot leader knew that Cillin was referring to the two kidnapped RAS scholars, but she didn’t provide an answer immediately. Instead, she said, “You’ve been here for around two weeks, haven’t you? You must have witnessed the war on this planet and learned about the human’s individual combat strength and military equipment.”
Cillin stared at her wordlessly. He didn’t know what the robot leader was trying to say.
The robot leader continued, “Compared to the RAS, you can easily say that the weapons on this planet are several leagues behind times. That minor noble kept all the power to himself and refused to share it with any external forces, even if it meant that the citizens of this planet had to live with a constant warfare. Of course, the citizens have no complains because of long term brainwashing and having no idea how far the outside technology has progressed compared to their own. War has made them numb and unreceptive after all. However, that will change starting today.”
The robot leader opened her palm as a hologram that was five meters long and three meters wide abruptly winked into existence. It was a display of the war that was happening inside the city right now. The three armies was currently fighting against the robots, and brilliant-looking laser and particle beams filled the entire screen. Even the locals who had evacuated from the war zone could see them from a distance.
The robot leader then opened her other palm and displayed a battle scene between the locals and the sea beasts. Cillin himself had watched them while he was going through the network.
“A villager who was isolated from the outside world won’t realize just how poor and backward they truly are, but when the outside world broke the village’s peace in the name of defending the weak and supporting progress, realization and the sense of inferiority will hit them like a hammer. Maybe now the citizens who’re hiding at the distance will think: will the sea beasts still be a threat if we have this level of equipment?”
“You sure talk a lot of nonsense.” Cillin said. He didn’t voice any reflections after listening to the robot’s speech.
A human is a creature who will waver when their sentimentality is triggered, and if they wavered once they can waver a second time. This meant that the robot was planning to move on to another subject, attempt to influence his emotions again and crack open his mental defenses step by step.
The robot leader smiled helplessly when she saw his reaction. “You really are more like a prototype.”
“Prototype? Does that mean you are the descendant of a line?” Cillin asked.
The robot declared proudly, “Yes, we are the descendant. We think like a human, but we function as a robot.”
The decapitated parts of the robots that Cillin had cut in half earlier started joining back together until not a blemish could be seen on their metallic surface. The robots that he had cut from head to toe remained immobile, however.
Cillin raised his gun and opened fired at the head of a newly recovered robot. Bang!
The shot caused the robot’s entire head to explode. Without its head, the robot reacted once mechanically before it stopped moving entirely. The robot leader thought that it was an act of provocation.
“I don’t want to waste time with you. I don’t sense a shred of sincerity in you at all.” Cillin said slowly.
Sincerity?
The angry look on the robot leader’s face instantly turned into a smile. “Does that mean you’re willing to turn in the sea blue gold formulas?”
“Show me the two hostages.” Cillin said.
“Acceptable.” The robot leader stretched out an arm as the image on the hologram turned into two scholars sealed inside two translucent pods. It looked like they were unconscious.
Cillin shook his head when he saw this. “I don’t trust your images, it is only too easy for you robots to tamper with an image. I’m also certain that’s why the three armies still can’t locate me even now.”
“You sure are a crafty one. I knew you wouldn’t tell us the sea blue gold formulas so easily.” The robot leader withdrew her arm while replying.
“How credibility do you think Black Viper has?” Cillin countered.
The robot leader stared at Cillin for five seconds straight. Finally, she smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll take you to them.”
Right after she said this, the beautiful robot turned into an eagle and took to the air.
This time, Cillin activated his hoverboard and chased after the eagle.
The eagle landed on a sand dune before letting out a cry. One third of the sand dunes started transforming into two robots that were guarding two translucent pods in a crouching position, and inside the pods were the two old scholars everyone was looking for. Although the hostages were still unconscious, Cillin could see and judge from their wrist pulse and venous pressure that it was just a normal coma. Their lives weren’t in danger.
“Now that you’ve seen them, it’s your turn to show me your sincerity.” The eagle on the sand dune said. Suddenly, it turned and looked at a certain direction as the remaining two-thirds of the sand dune suddenly moved and transformed into all kinds of robots. The whole thing was made up of robots!
Goryeo and Fu Qingqing was following closely behind.
The eagle didn’t look angry or anxious at the arrival of Guan Feng’s three disciples. On the contrary, it smiled at Cillin and said, “Your senior brothers and sisters are here, boy. Say, what do you think will happen when my subordinates clash against the three of them?”

1099.第1099章
万事俱备，只欠东风！
class="DivMargin">如今发出大笑的，正是‘熊全’。
当初，熊全跟着段凌天进‘通玄之阵’之前，就已经从段凌天的口中得知通玄之阵可以提升进入其中的武者的‘意境’。
如今，感觉沉睡了许久的他，清醒过来后做的第一件事，就是试探的沟通、施展‘剑之意境’。
当他施展出‘剑之意境’的时候，他就看向了自己头顶虚空上动荡的天地之力，亲眼目睹天地异象凝形，化作一千头远古角龙虚影。
仅凭‘剑之意境’，引动天地之力，汇聚成一千头远古角龙虚影。
这，正是‘九重高阶剑之意境’的标志！
如此，熊全怎能不高兴？
进入‘通玄之阵’之前，他虽然知道自己的‘剑之意境’会提升，可他却从没想过‘剑之意境’会提升这么大。
直接提升到‘九重高阶’，抵达‘意境’所能抵达的巅峰。 再进一步，便是‘剑之奥义’！
奥义，一般来说，只是‘武皇强者’的专利。
不过，在熊全见识到凤天舞施展出来的‘火之奥义’和‘剑之奥义’的时候。 他就意识到。
就如凤天舞。 仅仅只是一个化虚境一重武者，就已经领悟了两种‘奥义’，两种‘皇境奥义’，而且还不是一般的‘皇境奥义’。
开什么玩笑！
任何一种，都足以堪比四千头远古角龙之力的‘皇境奥义’，会是一般的‘皇境奥义’？
“嗯，不错。” 听到熊全的话，段凌天点了点头，倒也没有露出过于惊诧的神色。
“九重高阶剑之意境？”
段凌天不惊讶，不代表凤天舞不惊讶，凤天舞的脸色虽然还是那么冰冷，但一双看不出情绪的秋眸深处，却俨然多出了几分惊异。
惊异于熊全的突破。
过去，熊全没少在她的面前施展‘剑之意境’，所以，她很清楚熊全的‘剑之意境’的层次。
而现在，熊全却是一飞冲天，领悟了‘九重高阶剑之意境’。
“少爷，你的悟性比熊全强多了……这一次，你的进步肯定更大！” 很快，熊全略微平复下激动的心情，看向段凌天。
随着熊全开口，凤天舞也一起看向段凌天，一双秋眸中流露出几分好奇，好奇段凌天在‘通玄之阵’里面的突破。
“还行吧。”
听到熊全的话，段凌天只是淡淡应了一声，紧接着看向凤天舞，“天舞，你怎么会在这里？”
“等你。” 凤天舞开口回应，惜字如金。
自从凤天舞失忆以后，虽然听段凌天说起了她的过去，但她的性格却还是保持着失忆后的‘冰冷’，惜字如金。
所以，听到凤天舞短短的两字回应，段凌天并不觉得意外。
不只不觉得意外，甚至于，在这一刻，他的心忍不微微的颤抖了一下。
短短的两个字，无疑说明了凤天舞已在这里等候他多时，让得他不由心生感动，暗自喃喃，“傻丫头。”
突然，段凌天似是想起了什么，眉宇间流露出几分急色，招呼凤天舞、熊全一声后，便径自往偏殿外而去。
眼见段凌天一溜烟没了影，凤天舞和熊全纷纷忍不住一怔，不知道段凌天为什么突然这么急。
不过，他们还是带着疑惑跟了上去。
离开偏殿后，段凌天一路飞掠而行，直往陆家府邸东边一带而去，他所居的府邸，就在那个方向。
现在，他归心似箭。
当然，他归心似箭，并不代表他想念那个临时的‘家’，而是迫切想要回去通过‘奥义碎片’领悟‘奥义’。
他现在的一身修为，并非初入‘化虚境九重’。
有‘涅槃丹’的霸道药力相助，再加上先前服用过的灵果，他现在的一身修为，已经抵达化虚境九重的巅峰。
就算距离那‘武皇境’，也只是半步之遥。
这半步，便是只差了‘奥义’。
可以说是‘万事俱备，只欠东风’！
只要他领悟了‘奥义’，一身修为也将可以顺利完成突破，突破到‘武皇境’。
到时，他将可以成为‘武皇强者’！
武皇强者，不只有着远超寻常武者的强大实力，更是可以永葆青春！
只要他愿意，那他就算是在寿终将寝的时候，他的样子还是青年时期突破到‘武皇境’那一刻的样子。
当然，突破到‘武皇境’的强者，也可以选择让容颜继续自然衰老。
毕竟，任何一个武皇强者，也不敢保证他们的儿子、孙子能像他一样突破到‘武皇境’，成为武皇强者，永葆青春。
当然，也有不少武皇强者是为了配合自己的妻子，而没有选择永葆青春。
试问，一位武皇强者，如果看到自己挚爱的妻子一天天老去，牙齿掉光、头发发白、皱纹遍布，再看自己，还是中年时期的模样。 他又该是怎样的心情？
在云霄大陆的历史上，也出现过一些青年武皇强者，他们选择一辈子保持青年时期的模样。
任由年过古稀的儿女喊‘爹’，任由看似比自己年长的孙子、孙女喊‘爷爷’。 他们并不觉得这样有什么不妥。
在他们看来。 长幼有序，与外在的‘模样’毫无关联。
武皇境！” 现在，段凌天归心似箭，恨不得插上一双翅膀飞回去。
不过，在回去的路上，段凌天又忍不住有些纠结和烦恼。
“现在，我领悟的‘剑之意境’、‘风之意境’、‘雷之意境’和‘大地意境’，都已经突破到‘九重高阶’……这四种‘意境’对应‘奥义’的‘奥义碎片’，我身上也都有。”
“我的意识，先后两次因为‘封魔碑’造成的后遗症而一分为三……所以，我可以同时通过三枚不同的‘奥义碎片’，领悟三种不同‘奥义’。”
“应该先挑哪三种‘意境’，让它们蜕变成‘奥义’呢？ 烦！
“四种意境，为什么要一起突破到‘九重高阶’呢？ 看来，有的时候，这领悟太多的‘九重高阶意境’也不见得是一件好事。”
如果段凌天现在的想法被第二个人知道，对方肯定会二话不说给他一个耳光，然后再骂他一声‘身在福中不知福’、‘不要脸’。
“三种‘意境’，‘风之意境’必须占一个名额……我要通过‘风之奥义碎片’一举领悟‘风之奥义’！”
帝境风之奥义碎片，他手里虽然也有，但他暂时却用不上。
准确的说，帝境风之奥义碎片，必须等他领悟了‘九重皇境风之奥义’以后才能用上。
不过，除去当初在‘武帝秘藏’中得到的‘二重帝境风之奥义碎片’，他的手里另外还有一枚‘八重皇境风之奥义碎片’。
前者，他现在用不上。 后者，他却是用得上。
他，正是打算通过后者，一举领悟‘风之奥义’，从而突破到‘武皇境’，成为‘武皇强者’！
无非是因为领悟了‘风之奥义’以后，风之奥义可以孕生出同层次的‘火之奥义’。
选择将‘风之意境’列入即将突破的三大‘意境’之一，无疑是一个明智的选择。
没多久，段凌天回到了这段时间居住的府邸。
跟凤天舞和熊全打了一声招呼后，他第一时间回了自己的房间，盘腿坐在床上。
与此同时，他的手里多出三枚‘碎片’。

Chapter 1099: Everything is in Order Except the Final Push!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xiong Quan was laughing. Before he followed Duan Ling Tian into the Profound Assimilation Formation, he found out from Duan Ling Tian that martial artists who entered the formation would have their Concepts elevated.
The first thing he did when he woke up from a long, deep sleep was to try and cast his Sword Concept.
When he cast the Sword Concept, he looked at the Heaven and Earth Energy that was rumbling above his head. He witnessed the formation of the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon that displayed 1,000 ancient horned dragon's silhouettes.
The Heaven and Earth Energy drove by the Sword Concept alone formed 1,000 ancient horned dragon's silhouettes.
It was the symbol of the Ninth Advanced Level Sword Concept!
How could Xiong Quan not be happy about it?
Although he knew his Sword Concept would elevate before he entered the Profound Assimilation Formation, he did not expect the elevation to be this drastic.
It was so drastic to the point that it elevated all the way to Ninth Advanced Level. It was the peak of the Concept.
Profundity was usually exclusive to Martial Monarch powerhouses.
However, he realized that Profundity was not exclusive to Martial Monarch powerhouses when he witnessed Feng Tian Wu casting the Fire and Sword Profundity!
His situation was similar to Feng Tian Wu. She was only a First Level Void Transformation martial artist who had comprehended two Profundities. She comprehended two Monarch Stage Profundities. Moreover, those were not ordinary Profundities.
It was not a joke!
Compared to ordinary Monarch Stage Profundity, she possessed 4,000 ancient horned dragons' strength from each Profundity.
"Hmm, not bad." Duan Ling Tian only nodded when he heard Xiong Quan's words. He was not surprised at all. He had already expected Xiong Quan's breakthrough.
"Ninth Advanced Level Sword Concept?
However, just because Duan Ling Tian was not surprised, it did not mean that Feng Tian was not surprised too. Although her expression remained cold, there was a hint of surprise in the depth of her bright eyes.
She was surprised by Xiong Quan's breakthrough.
She had seen Xiong Quan casting his Sword Concept previously. Therefore, she knew the level of Xiong Quan's Sword Concept very well.
To her surprise, Xiong Quan had comprehended the Ninth Advanced Level Sword Concept.
"Young Master, your comprehension is so much stronger than mine… This time, your improvement must be much more drastic than mine!" Xiong Quan calmed his chaotic emotion as he looked at Duan Ling Tian.
When Xiong Quan spoke, Feng Tian Wu looked at Duan Ling Tian. There was curiosity in her bright eyes. She was curious about Duan Ling Tian's breakthrough in the Profound Assimilation Formation.
"It's not bad, I guess." Duan Ling Tian only gave a short and calm response to Xiong Quan's question.
He then looked at Feng Tian Wu. "Tian Wu, why are you here?"
"Waiting for you," Feng Tian Wu responded. As usual, she was stingy with her words.
Ever since she lost her memory, she had been aloof and taciturn even though she had learned about her past from Duan Ling Tian.
Therefore, Duan Ling Tian was not surprised by Feng Tian Wu's short response.
Although he was not surprised, his heart jolted when he heard her response.
Based on Feng Tian Wu's response, she had been waiting for him here for a long time. He could not help but feel moved and mumbled, "Silly girl."
"Let's head back," Duan Ling Tian said to Feng Tian and Xiong Quan. He seemed to have suddenly recalled something. He had a look of concern on his face when he walked out of the side hall.
Feng Tian Wu and Xiong Quan were stunned when they saw Duan Ling Tian's abrupt departure. They had no idea why Duan Ling Tian had left in such urgency.
They followed him curiously.
After leaving the side hall, Duan Ling Tian flew to the east side of the Lu Clan's estate. It was the direction of the mansion he was currently living in.
It seemed as though he was missing home.
Naturally, he did not miss his current home. He was just eager to head back so he could comprehend Profundity using Profundity Fragment.
His cultivation base was not at the elementary stage of the Ninth Level Void Transformation.
With the help of the Rebirth Pill's overbearing medicinal efficacy and the Spirit Fruit he consumed earlier, his cultivation base had reached the peak of the Ninth Level Void Transformation.
He was just half a step away from achieving the Martial Monarch Stage.
The only thing lacking was Profundity.
One could say that 'Everything is in order except for the final push'!
As soon as he comprehended Profundity, his cultivation base would successfully break through to the Martial Monarch Stage.
At that time, he would become a Martial Monarch powerhouse!
A Martial Monarch powerhouse would not only have powerful abilities like outstanding martial artists, but he would also have everlasting youth.
It meant that he would maintain his appearance at the moment he broke through to the Martial Monarch Stage for the rest of his life as long as he was willing.
Many of them chose to age naturally after breaking through to the Martial Monarch so they would look age-appropriate for their offsprings.
After all, none of the Martial Monarch powerhouses could guarantee their sons and grandchildren would break through to the Martial Monarch Stage to maintain their youth.
Additionally, many Martial Monarch powerhouses also did not choose everlasting youth for the sake of their wives.
How would a Martial Monarch powerhouse feel having to look on as his beloved wife aged day by day? How would he feel as he witnessed her losing her teeth, her hair turning white and wrinkles appearing on her face while he maintained his middle-age appearance?
Naturally, every Martial Monarch powerhouses had different decisions. In the Cloud Continent's history, there were some young Martial Monarch powerhouses who had chosen everlasting youth.
They watched as their elderly children called them 'father', and their elderly grandchildren called them 'grandfather'.
In their opinion, there was nothing odd about it. Seniority had nothing to do with outer appearance.
'Martial Monarch Stage! Martial Monarch Stage!' Duan Ling Tian was eager to head back. He wished he had a pair of wings so he could fly faster.
However, many thoughts were running through his mind the entire time.
"The Sword Concept, Wind Concept, Thunder Concept, and Earth Concept I had comprehended had broken through to the Ninth Advanced Level… I have all four Profundity Fragments for them."
"I can divide my consciousness into three thanks to the after-effect of the Devilseal Tablet that I used twice… I can simultaneously comprehend three different Profundities through the Profundity Fragments."
"Which three Concepts should I pick to turn into Profundities first? Ugh! This is annoying!" Duan Ling Tian was in caught in a dilemma.
"Why do all four Concepts have to break through to the Ninth Advanced Level at the same time? Sometimes it doesn't seem like it's a good thing to comprehend too many Ninth Advanced Level Concepts." Duan Ling Tian sighed.
If someone else heard that, they would probably give him a slap and call him an ingrate and shameless.
"I must save a slot for the Wind Concept among the three Concepts… I must comprehend the Wind Profundity through the Wind Profundity Fragment!" Naturally, he would use the Monarch Stage Profundity Fragments to break through to the Monarch Stage Profundity.
Although he had an Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment with him, he could not use it just yet.
To be exact, he would have to wait until he had comprehended the Ninth Level Monarch Stage Wind Profundity to be able to use the Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment.
However, apart from the Second Level Emperor Stage Wind Profundity Fragment that he obtained from the Martial Emperor's secret treasure previously, he had an Eighth Level Monarch Stage Wind Profundity Fragment as well.
He could not use the former currently, but he could use the latter.
He planned to use the latter to comprehend the Wind Profundity once and for all and break through to Martial Monarch Stage to become a Martial Monarch powerhouse!
He prioritized the breakthrough of the Wind Concept because the Fire Profundity would be simultaneously raised to the same level.
Giving the Wind Concept priority was undoubtedly a wise choice.
Soon after, Duan Ling Tian returned to the mansion he was residing in.
After he spoke to Feng Tian Wu and Xiong Quan, he returned to his room immediately and sat on his bed with his legs crossed.
Meanwhile, he held three fragments in his hands.

The alchemical fire oil had really wrought a miracle.\nBecause it was a worldwide quest, the rewards would wait until all the lords had finished the quest before they were issued. With the free time, Ouyang Shuo went to the west gate to look over the situation there.\nAlong the west side of the village near the gate, the fire array was still burning. The fire array had basically trapped the buffalo herd inside a large trap, albeit without using spikes. Cattle corpses with arrows and javelins sticking out of them were everywhere. Even the buffalo king had been directly killed by General Shi with a bow and arrow with no way of fighting back.\nOuyang Shuo told the Logistics Department to fill the ditch of hot oil with soil and extinguish the fire. If they just waited for it to go out, he had no idea how long it might take.\nAfter the fires had been put out, he walked out in the array, stopping next to the body of the boss buffalo to see what items had fallen. Picking it up, a look told him that it was a manual.\nThis was a really good thing. The animal breeding in his territory would usher in a whole new era of development!\nOuyang Shuo immediately called Lin Yi, telling him to take forty cavalry, and fly along the path that the herd of cattle had come from. They were to take full advantage of the lack of danger in the wilderness and to capture as many small buffalo as possible, bringing them back to be domesticated.\nWith the mobility of the cavalry, rounding up the smaller cattle and herding them into a group together to bring them back to the village should not be a problem.\nSimilarly, he called on San Gouzi, and had him lead the Second Squad and 30 Team militia reserves, and head back in the direction the wild boars had come from. They were to look for piglets. Although he already had a dozen of them, that was far below the numbers he would need to seriously establish a pig farm. Why not take advantage of this great opportunity to catch enough piglets at once and expand the scale of his pig farming?\nWaiting until the two teams were on their way, Ouyang Shuo also called over the Construction Division secretary, Zhao Dewang. “Secretary Zhao, I have two tasks to give the Construction Division!”\n“Lord, please tell me!” As long as it was about building things, the secretary is not worried about anything.\n“First, as soon as you can organize the staff, on the west side of the village we need to build a large cattle pen and pig sty. This will ensure that when the cavalry teams bring back the young cattle and pigs, they have somewhere to live.\n“Second, work with the Material Reserves Division to clean up and fill in the pit traps. The animal corpses in the pits are the responsibility of the Material Reserves Division, and filling them in is the responsibility of the Construction Division, restore the original appearance of the land. Remember, do not miss any of the traps. Otherwise, catching some of our people wandering around would be a really bad joke,” Ouyang Shuo said seriously.\nZhao Dewang looked serious and said firmly, “I guarantee it will be done right!”\nAt this time, General Shi came over to him, smiled, and handed him an object. It was the thing the wild boar king had dropped.\nOuyang Shuo examined it, finding out it was a talisman. Such a talisman was a trump card, the kind of thing that if you used it at a key moment, it could save your life.\n[ Talisman of Blood Thirsting ]: After using this, you enter into a bloodthirsty rage. Your combat power is doubled for half an hour. After the rage expires, you will be weakened for two days.\nDuring this period of time, he was constantly hearing more system announcements. Most of the lord players had failed and their territories were removed from the lists. But then finally came another success, and one after another, names were filling the the world ranking lists.\n“World announcement: Congratulations to the Free Village of the United States! Under the Leadership of their Lord Jeff Dawson, they have succeeded in fighting off the Siege of Beasts, and are ranked second in the world!”\n“World announcement: Congratulations to the Handan Village in China! Under the Leadership of their Lord Di Chen, they have succeeded in fighting off the Siege of Beasts, and are ranked fourth in the world!”\n“World announcement: Congratulations to the Vic Village of France! Under the Leadership of their Lord Henry, they have succeeded in fighting off the Siege of Beasts, and are ranked tenth in the world!”\nIn less than an hour, the top ten of the world charts were set. Ouyang Shuo looked at the world list. The only difference in it from his past life was that Canada’s Maple Leaf Village was not there, having been squeezed out of the top ten as a direct result of his own appearance.\nBecause of the emergence of Ouyang Shuo, the top ten list of the world now had two Lords from the same country. Suddenly, the Chinese scene looked very different.\nAt this moment, near Handan Village, a handsome young man was staring at the world rankings, his expression gloomy. He was the lead of the Handan Six Tyrants, Di Chen. Next to him was sitting a peerlessly beautiful woman, named Juedai Fenghua. Nobody except Di Chen was aware of her identity in reality.\nIn the past life, out of the women on China’s top ten beauty billboard, she was ranked second from the top. The first was the only woman lord player in Handan Six Tyrants, Feng Qiuhuang.\nJuedai Fenghua was not a vase on a pedestal. Di Chen considered her his first counselor. Anyone who underestimated her wisdom would not have a good ending.\n“You said that this Qiyue Wuyi was not merely lucky?” Juedai Fenghua asked.\nDi Chen frowned, hesitantly admitting, “His identity, I am afraid no one knows yet. But for Shanhai Village, I have some conjectures.”\n“Oh? What kind of thoughts?” Feng Huajue seemed a little surprised.\n“I heard my father mention something about the village order. He said, that in order to balance out your privileged players, gold-level village tokens were hidden in the village build task,” Di Chen told her uncertainly. After all, the news about the inner workings of the game were very confidential, outsiders could only hear rumors.\n“No matter what, this time Handan Village did not even enter the top three of the world, instead some nobody from nowhere had claimed the throne. This is a great blow to our prestige, and I am afraid that the rats, those who are ready to act will become restless.”\nJuedai Fenghua laughed gently. “Those rats will never be enough for the real stage.”\nDi Chen was silent. This was truth, but difficult to swallow.\nFollowing this, China’s rankings were also officially released. Unsurprisingly, almost everyone from the previous forecast on the forums was on the list.\nDescription: Because there are two China players in the world ranking, the rankings were automatically extended by two.\nOut of the list of 12 lords, the one Ouyang Shuo was most concerned about was the other lord in Dali. Consonance village lord was the legendary Chinese electronic sports star, Baihua.\nAccording to the news in his past life, Baihua should be the same as him, a civilian player. To achieve results like this truly showed her strength. As she also ranked in the top three of Chinese beauties, as well as being a master player, Baihua’s appeal in the player groups was very powerful.\nAlso in the previous game, Baihua was not alone. Three years ago, she established her own game studio - Consonance Studio. The core members of the studio were all beautiful women. In addition to Baihua, there was Zi Luolan, Hong Ying, and Tsing Yi.\nAn hour later, Dali’s regional rankings were finally released. This really showed the difference in the local lords’ abilities.\nNote: Because Dali had two players enter the national list for China, the list has been extended by two.\nIn the Dali regional list, the Lords of the Lianzhou Basin had four people in the rankings, accounting for a third of them. In addition to Ouyang Shuo, the three major overlords from his previous life were all represented here.\nAfter the last of the three lists was released, there was a burst of music in Ouyang Shuo’s ear again.\n“System Tip: Player Qiyue Wiyu, for making it into the top three of the world list, you have achieved a reward of 3000 merit points, 600 gold coins, and a random secret building!\n“System Tip: Your random secret building has been selected - Recruitment Hall! Your building has automatically been generated in your territory, please inspect it!”\nOh God, it was actually the Recruitment Hall! Ouyang Shuo had a feeling of ascending to heaven. In his view, the combined merit points and gold coins could not even match the value of the Recruitment Hall!"

第三十一章
就连欧阳朔自己都不敢相信，山海村竟然是世界上第一个成功抵御住兽群袭击的领地，猛火油这次真的是立下奇功。
因为这次任务是世界任务，任务奖励要等到所有的领主都完成以后，才开始发放。 趁着这段时间，欧阳朔来到西侧门，看一下那边的情况。
被猛火阵困住的野牛群无一幸免，横尸遍野。 就连野牛王，也是直接被史万岁用弓箭在射死，非常的憋屈。
欧阳朔吩咐后勤署，用泥土将灌有猛火油的沟渠填上，将火熄灭。 如果等火势自然熄灭，还不知道要等多久。
火势熄灭之后，他走进猛火阵，来到野牛王BOSS尸体旁边，看掉落了什么特殊物品。 捡起一看，是一本《野牛驯养技术手册》。
果然是好东西，这下子，领地的畜牧业是要迎来大发展了。
欧阳朔果断叫来林逸，让他率领四十名骑兵队士卒，立马沿着野牛群赶来的方向仔细寻找。 要趁着野牛群被歼灭的这段空窗期，尽可能地捕获小野牛，带回领地驯养。
以骑兵队的机动性，只要将小野牛聚在一起，直接往领地赶就行。
同样的，他又叫来三狗子，让他带领第二火士卒，再带上三十名民兵预备队成员，沿着野猪群赶来的方向，深入树林，寻找小猪仔。 虽然领地已经有十二头小猪仔，但是距离大规模养殖所需要的数量还是差太多。
等到两只队伍都出发了之后，欧阳朔又叫来建设司的赵得旺，“赵司长，现在有两件任务要交给你们建设司。”
“大人请说！” 只要是建设司的本职工作，这位司长还是不怕的。
“第一，尽快组织人手，在村庄西侧修建大型的牛圈和猪圈。 确保骑兵队带回来的小野牛和小猪仔，有安身之处。”
“第二，和物资储备司配合，清理之前挖掘的陷阱坑。 坑内的野兽尸体由物资储备司负责处理。
赵得旺神情一肃，坚决地说道：“是，保证完成任务！”
这个时候，史万岁走了过来，笑呵呵地递给他一件东西，是之前野猪王BOSS掉落的物品。
欧阳朔接过一看，原来是一道符箓，倒是一件不错的小玩意儿，关键时刻，也许可以救人一命。
【嗜血符】：使用后，进入嗜血状态，战力提升两倍，持续半个小时。 嗜血效果解除之后，使用者将有两天的虚弱期。
接下来的一段时间，不断地有系统公告响起。 要么就是有领地完成任务，进入各大排行榜。
“世界公告：恭喜美国区自由村在领主杰克·道森的带领下，成功抵御兽群袭击，位列世界排行榜第2位！”
“世界公告：恭喜中国区邯郸村在领主帝尘的带领下，成功抵御兽群袭击，位列世界排行榜第4位！”
“世界公告：恭喜法国区维克村在领主亨利的带领下，成功抵御兽群袭击，位列世界排行榜第10位！”
不到一个小时，世界排行榜的前十名全部诞生。 欧阳朔查看了一下世界排行榜，唯一例外的就是前世第十位的加拿大区的枫叶村因为自己的出现，被挤出了前十名的位置。
因为欧阳朔的出现，世界排行榜前十中，史无前例地出现两名来自同一个国家的领主。 一时之间，中国区风光无限。
此时此刻，京都附近的邯郸村中，一名长相英俊的年轻男子，盯着世界排行榜，脸色阴沉。 他就是邯郸六霸之首的帝尘，在他旁边，坐着一位风华绝代的女子。
现实中的身份一直是个迷，除了帝尘，再没有人知道。 前世，有好事者排出中国区十大美女风云榜，风华绝代位列第二名。
风华绝代可不是一个花瓶，作为帝尘名下的第一谋士，谁要是敢轻视她的智慧，那绝对讨不到好。
“你说，这个岂曰无衣到底是何方神圣？” 风华绝代开口问道。
帝尘皱着眉头，迟疑地说道：“他的身份，恐怕还没有人知道。 不过对于山海村，我倒是有一个猜测。”
！ 什么猜测？”
风华绝代显得有些意外。 “之前我听父亲提到过一个关于建村令的消息，据说盖亚为了平衡我们这些特权玩家，在建村任务中，隐藏了一枚黄金级建村令牌。” 帝尘不确定地说到。
“谁知道呢，也许是用了什么取巧的办法吧。 不管怎样，这一次邯郸村居然连世界排行榜的前三名都没有进，反而让一位不知道从哪里冒出来的玩家给占据了榜首。 这对我们的声望，是一次巨大的打击。
风华绝代嗤笑了一声，风情万种，“那些家伙，终究上不了台面。”
帝尘一言不发，似为难，又似默认。
这个时候，中国区排行榜也正式出炉。 不出意外，先前论坛上预测的热门人选，几乎都榜上有名。
说明：因为中国区有两名玩家进入世界排行榜，排名自动延后两名。
中国区排行榜的十二位领主，欧阳朔最关注的，当然是同属大理的灵犀村。 灵犀村的领主，就是中国电子竞技的传奇人物白桦。
根据前世的消息，白桦应该跟他一样，也是一位平民玩家。 能够取得这样的成绩，绝对是实力使然。
灵犀工作室的核心成员，还是四名美女。 除了白桦，还有紫罗兰、红鹰和青衣，并称青红紫白。
一个小时之后，大理的区域排行榜终于出炉。 由此可见，领主之间的差距到底有多大。
说明：因为大理有两名玩家进入中国区排行榜，排名自动延后两名。
大理区域排行榜中，廉州盆地的领主就有四位，占了三分之一。 除了欧阳朔，前世廉州盆地的三大霸主一一在列。
三大榜单全部出炉之后，欧阳朔耳边立马响起一阵系统提示音。
“系统提示：玩家岂曰无衣成功进入三大排行榜的首位，以世界排行榜作为任务奖励结算依据。 特奖励功勋值3000点，金币600枚，随机隐藏建筑一座。”
“系统提示：随机隐藏建筑选定——招贤馆，建筑物自动在领地内生成，请玩家自行查看！”
欧阳朔有一种天上掉馅饼的感觉。 在他看来，就算是前面奖励的功勋值和金币加在一起，也无法跟招贤馆相媲美。

Chapter 31 - Ranking
Even Ouyang Shuo couldn’t believe that Shanhai Village turned out to be the first village in the world to successfully resist the Siege of Beasts. The alchemical fire oil had really wrought a miracle.
Because it was a worldwide quest, the rewards would wait until all the lords had finished the quest before they were issued. With the free time, Ouyang Shuo went to the west gate to look over the situation there.

This was a really good thing. The animal breeding in his territory would usher in a whole new era of development!

Zhao Dewang looked serious and said firmly, “I guarantee it will be done right!”

Ouyang Shuo examined it, finding out it was a talisman. Such a talisman was a trump card, the kind of thing that if you used it at a key moment, it could save your life.
[ Talisman of Blood Thirsting ]: After using this, you enter into a bloodthirsty rage. Your combat power is doubled for half an hour. After the rage expires, you will be weakened for two days.

Juedai Fenghua was not a vase on a pedestal. Di Chen considered her his first counselor. Anyone who underestimated her wisdom would not have a good ending.
“You said that this Qiyue Wuyi was not merely lucky?” Juedai Fenghua asked.
Di Chen frowned, hesitantly admitting, “His identity, I am afraid no one knows yet. But for Shanhai Village, I have some conjectures.”
“Oh? What kind of thoughts?” Feng Huajue seemed a little surprised.
“I heard my father mention something about the village order. He said, that in order to balance out your privileged players, gold-level village tokens were hidden in the village build task,” Di Chen told her uncertainly. After all, the news about the inner workings of the game were very confidential, outsiders could only hear rumors.
“No matter what, this time Handan Village did not even enter the top three of the world, instead some nobody from nowhere had claimed the throne. This is a great blow to our prestige, and I am afraid that the rats, those who are ready to act will become restless.”
Juedai Fenghua laughed gently. “Those rats will never be enough for the real stage.”
Di Chen was silent. This was truth, but difficult to swallow.
Following this, China’s rankings were also officially released. Unsurprisingly, almost everyone from the previous forecast on the forums was on the list.
Description: Because there are two China players in the world ranking, the rankings were automatically extended by two.
Out of the list of 12 lords, the one Ouyang Shuo was most concerned about was the other lord in Dali. Consonance village lord was the legendary Chinese electronic sports star, Baihua.
According to the news in his past life, Baihua should be the same as him, a civilian player. To achieve results like this truly showed her strength. As she also ranked in the top three of Chinese beauties, as well as being a master player, Baihua’s appeal in the player groups was very powerful.
Also in the previous game, Baihua was not alone. Three years ago, she established her own game studio - Consonance Studio. The core members of the studio were all beautiful women. In addition to Baihua, there was Zi Luolan, Hong Ying, and Tsing Yi.
An hour later, Dali’s regional rankings were finally released. This really showed the difference in the local lords’ abilities.
Note: Because Dali had two players enter the national list for China, the list has been extended by two.
In the Dali regional list, the Lords of the Lianzhou Basin had four people in the rankings, accounting for a third of them. In addition to Ouyang Shuo, the three major overlords from his previous life were all represented here.
After the last of the three lists was released, there was a burst of music in Ouyang Shuo’s ear again.
“System Tip: Player Qiyue Wiyu, for making it into the top three of the world list, you have achieved a reward of 3000 merit points, 600 gold coins, and a random secret building!
“System Tip: Your random secret building has been selected - Recruitment Hall! Your building has automatically been generated in your territory, please inspect it!”
Oh God, it was actually the Recruitment Hall! Ouyang Shuo had a feeling of ascending to heaven. In his view, the combined merit points and gold coins could not even match the value of the Recruitment Hall!

"value": "832 Ecang as His Clone 7\nThe first breath.\nAs Su Ming was shocked and caught in a daze due to the four Great Arts of Divine Essence, they repeated themselves before his eyes. In that short span of a breath, they repeated themselves thousands of times.\nAs the first breath passed by, Su Ming realized that he was no longer Sui Chen Zi. He seemed to be able to see a faint layer of black smoke coming from the white-robed and white-haired Sui Chen Zi. There were one hundred thousand faces within that black smoke, and all of them belonged to Su Ming.\nWhen the second breath arrived, the one hundred thousand faces formed by black smoke spread out from Sui Chen Zi's body. Once they gathered together behind him, Su Ming could feel that he now possessed a body, and he was no longer a lost soul in the world.\nOnce the third breath came, Su Ming saw Sui Chen Zi's back. What appeared in his mind was still the shock he received due to the four Divine Essence Arts. That shock seemed to have vaguely fused with his life, and he had a feeling that he had understood.\nAfter the three breaths, Sui Chen Zi, who had his back turned towards Su Ming, shook his head and gradually left into the distance. When Su Ming's body began to fade away, he suddenly spoke.\n\"The start of my Life Matrix is midwinter. The world is still, and there is no life there. It's as if a vast amount of snow had covered the earth, and all manner of lives ended… This is… what you mean by with one thought, you can destroy the heavens,\" Su Ming mumbled, a light of understanding shining in his eyes.\n\"After midwinter, my Life is that of bloody autumn. With blood, I will dye the sky red, turning it into the color of autumn and gain… the will of autumn. This is a transition between life and death. It is the only state where death and life exists at the same time within my Life Matrix. It is not like the complete stillness within midwinter, but neither is it like the vast amount of life during the searing summer… \"Since both life and death exist at the same time, it is the state of all lives dying, as well as the state of all lives being reborn… This is what you mean when you say with one thought, you can give life to the universe.\"\nSu Ming was whispering absentmindedly, as if he was not talking to anyone but himself. However, Sui Chen Zi, who had his back turned towards Su Ming in the distance, paused in his footsteps when he heard Su Ming say these two things. He kept still and unmoving, as if he thinking about Su Ming's words and waiting for the rest.\n\"The Life Matrix I came to understand is a path that moves from death to life, just like how midwinter moves towards spring, but the movement from spring to winter in the world is something that cannot be reversed. However, this is what I lack in my Life Matrix. Even if it is something that cannot be reversed, I still have to tread down this path.\n\"I was originally lost in my path after the bloody autumn. Now, I have come to understand. The searing summer after the bloody autumn should be filled with an abundance of life force. That life force is hot and can burn away everything. That life force is great and can illuminate all manner of lives.\n\"This life force… might seem real, but in truth, it is fake. Even if it is real in a sense. It can burn me, and also use its heat to burn all the lives in the universe, extinguishing the fire of life within all the living beings.\n\"Perhaps before it does anything, it is a mere illusion, but once the lives are extinguished, it will become real. Summer… Summer… Burn all lives to light up my own life so that it would become greater… This is what you mean by with one thought, you can make all lives perish.\"\nSu Ming's eyes grew even brighter. This was just like how he had gained that unique epiphany when he was in Eastern Wastelands Tower all those years ago. Now, from the four Great Arts of Divine Essence, he had come to gain an epiphany that not even Sui Chen Zi had expected.\nThis was an epiphany that belonged solely to Su Ming.\nSui Chen Zi turned around slowly. At the instant he looked towards Su Ming, Su Ming mumbled his final string of words.\n\"After the searing summer would be spring… Spring, the time when all lives are revived, where all manner of lives will rise. This should be the first step for all life forms, but for me, this is the final step in my path from death to life. With the power of resurrection, I will complete my awakening.\n\"If I succeed, then with one thought, I'll be able to give life to all manner of living, but if I fail… then with one thought, I will make all lives perish!\" A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes and he lifted his eyes to look at Sui Chen Zi. He looked at the old man with white hair and wisdom as well as old age in his eyes, and a firm persistence of his beliefs appeared in Su Ming's face.\n\"This is my understanding!\"\nAt the instant he said these words, a slightly strange look appeared on Sui Chen Zi's face. He seemed as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he could not do so. Instead, with some form of epiphany in his eyes along with a sort of dazed look on his face, his body gradually faded away.\nAlmost at the instant Sui Chen Zi's body vanished, the space around them also disappeared, and Ecang's low roars echoed in Su Ming's heart once again. A powerful will swept through the area, and booms caused by it crashing into Su Ming's soul could be heard rising into the air.\nHowever, in Su Ming's senses, that sound seemed to be incredibly far away from him. At that moment, his soul was completely burnt. However, even as his entire soul was burnt, he noticed that… he did not disappear.\n\"I was dead to begin with, and even my soul was dead. What would happen if I died again?\" Su Ming mumbled. \"It's thought… This is my thought…\" Su Ming whispered softly. He remembered the signs that were known as Abyss' Awakening when he first came to control time.\nWhen Dao Yuan came, when the three seals in Su Ming's soul were released, and when that voice telling him that the world was built for Abyss emerged in his head, he could sense that he had moved into the true state of Abyss' Awakening.\nOnly then was he able to Possess the Crimson Python Phoenix in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence and form his new physical body, though Su Ming had not known about it before he Possessed the creature. It had practically been a natural instinct.\n\"The Duke of Crimson Flame once said that the Abyss Builders can revive the dead… This is an inborn ability that snatches the power of creation from the universe's hands. It does not conform to the will of heaven, and neither is it in harmony with the universe.\n\"I've been thinking about where this ability came from all this while… Now I understand, after awakening to Abyss, what will awaken again is the ability to build… To build the Abyss, and to build life…\n\"So Abyss' Awakening requires… a person to die once, truly, completely, and absolutely.\" As Su Ming mumbled while coming to understand this, a wisp of his soul reappeared, and as it swiftly expanded, it instantly became a complete soul.\nThis form of completion was different from before he burned his soul, but Su Ming could not tell just what was different about himself. He could only sense that something about him seemed to have risen to a higher level. It was as if the state of being alive and dead existed at the same time in his soul. He was no longer just a dead soul… but was something dead that possessed life.\nIt was just like how he had come to understand the will of autumn. At that instant, Su Ming became aware that he had truly moved into the will of autumn. Now, not only had he understood it, but his soul had also managed to obtain it.\nFrom then on, the presence of Bright Yang would no longer be a terrifying thing that could wipe him off, because Su Ming's soul was no longer completely dead. It now possessed life. It was caught between life and death, just like autumn.\nIt was also during that moment that Ecang's enraged roars as well as its cries of surprise filled with disbelief grew close instead of remaining in the distance. They echoed in the area clearly. Ecang's voice was filled with shock, puzzlement and astonishment towards Su Ming's transformation.\nSu Ming's soul had occupied eight-tenths of all the golden venous pathways by then, and it had the heart that was filled with the aura of death at the center surrounded. As Su Ming awakened to Abyss and his soul became complete, he began to Possess Ecang once again without any hesitation.\nThis time, he was clearly much faster than before. As he fought back against Ecang's will, he also noticed… that he seemed to be able to control some power that did not belong to him.\nIt was the power of law, the law Sui Chen Zi had left behind before his death!\nWhen that understanding surfaced in Su Ming's heart, runic symbols suddenly appeared within the right eyes of all his one hundred thousand faces. Those runic symbols did not exist before, but even though they had just appeared, there was not a hint of unexpectedness within the faces.\nThe instant they appeared, the one hundred thousand runic symbols within the right eyes of the one hundred thousand faces flew out at the same time. Endless rays of black light spread out from them, and each of them turned into a black shadow.\nSu Ming had seen such shadows before. They were those that could kill all the people within the world with one hundred thousand stone monuments.\nAt that moment, one hundred thousand of such shadows appeared and… bowed at Su Ming. As they did so, he clearly sensed that he could control them.\n'Sui Chen Zi was hoping that a person who could successfully Possess Ecang would appear, or else he wouldn't have provided help when I Possessed a third, a half, and eight-tenths of those venous pathways.'\nAt the instant those shadows appeared, a thought rose in Su Ming's head. Immediately, the one hundred thousand shadows charged towards Ecang's will with furious roars. As they crashed into it with loud booming sounds ringing in the air and as Ecang roared madly, Su Ming immediately started Possessing, raising his coverage from eight- tenths to eighty-five-hundredths.\nThe parts that had turned black from the golden now occupied most of the territory. Besides the heart at the center, only very little was still shining in gold when Su Ming looked around himself.\nEighty-six, eight-eight, ninety!\nNinety-one, ninety-two, ninety-three… The one hundred thousand shadows were formed by Sui Chen Zi's law. As they fought against Ecang, Su Ming's soul swiftly spread out. As time passed, Su Ming's soul Possessed ninety-five-hundredths of all the venous pathways!\nBy then, besides the golden heart that was filled with the aura of death, all the other venous pathways that were previously gold had all turned black. All of them had become Su Ming's property. The power of his soul spread out, and the waves of power that were stirred up caused Ecang to let out a cry of despair.\nIt was also during that instant that besides the stone monuments that belonged to the ninety something people who received the test, failed, and were chased out at the same time, almost all the stone monuments erupted forth with a powerful ray of lights.\nOne hundred thousand stone monuments. Besides the small portion of those who had surpassed one million feet, the other ninety thousand something stone monuments shone with a light that spread far and wide. That light was brilliant and piercing to the eyes. As it shone, numerous figures with shock and cries of surprise were forced out of their stone monuments.\nNinety thousand something people!\nThese ninety thousand something people who wanted to obtain the Divine Essence and who had been immersed in the world formed by their memories in the stone monuments all appeared. This scene shook all the people's hearts, causing them to be unable to help themselves, they cried out in surprise. This was something that had never happened since the time Western Ring Nebula's foreign land was born.\n\"What happened?!\"\n\"How could this be? I was in the world in the stone monument just now, but I was forcefully expelled by a will that I could not fight against.\"\n\"Could it be… Could it be that someone has reached ten million feet? That's impossible. There's no stone monument here that is ten million feet tall.\"\n\"Look. That is… Our stone monuments, they are…\" Cries of surprise rang in the air. The last one was especially piercing, and immediately, all the people in the place were stunned. To their shock, they discovered that besides their own name, another one had suddenly appeared on their stone monuments.\nThat name was above theirs, as if the owner of that name was the true owner of all the stone monuments, the true master of the land with the one hundred thousand stone monuments!\nThe additional name… was Mo Su!\nZhou Kang stood by the side and stared at Su Ming's stone monument blankly. Unbidden, the image of Su Ming listening to his experiences seriously when he had just arrived in this place appeared in his mind."

崛起神源第835章
第一息。
苏铭被这四大神源之术震动，心神茫然中，这四大神源之术回荡在他眼前，在这短短的一息时间，上演了百次千次之多。
随着第一息的流逝，苏铭忽然觉得，自己不再是岁尘子，他似模糊的看到，那穿着白衣白发苍苍的岁尘子身上，有一层黑气散开，那黑气内有十万张面孔，全部都是属于苏铭。
当第二息到来时，苏铭的十万黑气面孔，全部从岁尘子体内散出，在其后面相互凝聚在一起后，苏铭感觉自己又有了身躯，不再是此地的一缕迷茫的魂。
第三息，瞬间来临后，苏铭看着岁尘子的背影，他的脑海中浮现的，依旧还是对方神源四术的震撼，隐隐与他的一生融合，他觉得，自己明白了。
直至第三息过去后，背对着苏铭的岁尘子，仿佛摇了摇头，渐渐远去，苏铭的身躯又重新要模糊时，苏铭忽然开口。
“我命格初为隆冬，天地寂灭，没有生机，如苍茫的雪覆盖大地，生灵皆尽……此为……一念苍穹灭。” 苏铭喃喃，双目闪过明悟之芒。
“隆冬之后我命为血秋，以鲜血染红天空，使之化作秋的颜色，然……秋之意，是生与死之间的转化，是我命格中唯一的，同时存在了生死的境界，它不像是隆冬完全的寂灭，不像炙夏磅礴的生机……在生与死共存中，出现了万物寂灭，也出现了生灵的重生……此为，一念天道生。”
苏铭的声音只是低语，仿佛不是在对任何人去说，而是在自语一样，但远处背对着苏铭的岁尘子身影，却是在苏铭的这两番话后，远去的身体一顿，一动不动，仿佛在思考苏铭的话语，等待他的下文。
“从我明悟的命格，是从死走向生，一如从隆冬走向春天般，这是一种天地不可逆的运转，但这是我的命格所缺，即便是不可逆，也要走下去。
血秋之后的路，我本迷茫，如今有所明悟，血秋后的炙夏，应充满了磅礴的生机，这生机炙热，可焚烧一切，这生机庞大，可辉煌万物。
这生机……看似真实，但实际上，它是虚假的，但它也是真实的，它可以焚烧我自身，也可以用其炙热，焚烧了整个苍穹众生，使生灵的生命之火熄灭。
或许，在熄灭前，它是虚幻的，可在熄灭后，它才是真实的，炙夏……炙夏……焚烧众生得以点燃自我之命，使之越加磅礴……这，就是一念众生熄。”
苏铭双目闪动越加明亮起来，如他当年在东荒塔内，参悟的是与众不同的感悟一样，他从这四大神源之术上，参悟出了一种就算是岁尘子也没预料到的明悟。
这是独属于苏铭的明悟。
岁尘子慢慢转过身，在他看向苏铭的一刹，苏铭最后的一番话，喃喃传出。
“炙夏之后，则是春……万物复苏之春，万物崛起之春，这本是生命的第一步，但对我而言，这是我从死走向生的最后一步，借春之复苏之力，完成我之苏醒。
我若成功，则一念万物孕，我若失败……则一念众生熄！” 苏铭双眼一闪，抬头看向岁尘子，看着面前这白发苍苍，目中蕴含睿智沧桑的老者，苏铭的神色露出坚定的执着。
“这，就是苏某的明悟！”
在苏铭这句话传出的瞬间，岁尘子的神色有些奇异，他似想说些什么，但最终却是没有开口，而是目中带着某种明悟，脸上的表情更是一种茫然，他的身体，渐渐的散去。
几乎在岁尘子身躯散去的一瞬，四周的虚无也随之消散，厄苍的低吼之声再次于苏铭心神回荡，强大的意志扫动四周，传来与苏铭的魂碰撞的轰鸣之声。
可这些声音在苏铭感受，仿佛距离自己很遥远，此刻的他灵魂已经完全燃烧，可在这完全的燃烧里，苏铭却发现，自己……没有消散。
苏铭喃喃。 “是念……是我的念……”苏铭轻声自语，他想到了当年在阴死之地，自己初掌握了岁月逆转时，被称为冥之觉醒征兆。
直至道原来临，苏铭魂内三道封印打开，他脑海浮现一句“此界……塑冥”的声音后，他能感觉到，自己迈入到了真正的冥之觉醒中。
此后，他才可以在神源废地，夺舍了赤蟒凤，凝聚了新的肉身，尽管这夺舍在之前苏铭不知晓，但这几乎是一种本能。
“赤火侯曾说，塑冥一族，可让死人复活……这是一种夺天地造化的天赋，与天意不合，与苍穹不融。
我一直在思索，这种天赋，来自何处……如今我明白了，冥之觉醒后，再次觉醒的，是塑……塑冥，塑命……原来，塑之觉醒，需要的是……死一次，真正的彻底的完全的死一次。”
苏铭喃喃中，随着他的明悟，他已经燃烧散去的魂，骤然重新出现了一丝，且急速的膨胀之下，瞬间达到了完整。
且这种完整，与他之前没燃烧前不一样，可到底什么地方不一样，苏铭说不太清楚，他只是感觉，自己仿佛是得到了某种升华，自己的魂，如存在了生死，不再是之前单纯的死魂，而是……死在带着生机。
如他感悟的秋意一样，也正是在这一瞬，苏铭彻底的明白，自己，真正的踏入到了秋意之中，不仅是感悟达到，他的魂，也随之达到。
从此皓阳之息，对他不再如以往那样充满了可以抹去的可怕，因为苏铭的魂，已经不再是完全的死魂，而是有了生机，介乎于生死之间，如秋。
也就是在这时，厄苍的怒吼与无法置信的震惊之声，从遥远变成了真实，清楚的回荡在四周，那声音带着震撼，似对苏铭的变化，充满了不解与骇然。
苏铭的魂，如今已经占据了整个金色脉络的八成，向着正中间那充满了死气的心脏环绕，随着苏铭塑之觉醒，随着他的魂完整，苏铭毫不迟疑的，再次展开了夺舍。
这一次，他明显要比以往快上太多，在与厄苍的意志对抗中，苏铭更是察觉到，自己似乎……可以掌控一些本不属于他的力量。
规则的力量，岁尘子死前留下的规则！
在他内心浮现这种明悟时，苏铭十万面孔的右目内，突然的，出现了符文，这符文在之前本没有，此刻骤然出现，可却没有丝毫突兀之感。
更是在出现的刹那，十万面孔右目的十万符文，齐齐飞出，散发无尽黑芒的瞬间，一个个全部都化作了一抹漆黑的虚影。
这虚影，苏铭见过，正是十万石碑世界内，可以抹杀众人的那身影。
此刻，这十万身影现身，全部都向着苏铭……一拜，一股可以掌控它们的感觉，在这一拜之下，清晰的于苏铭脑海浮现。
“岁尘子，是希望在岁月中，会出现一个人，成功夺舍了厄苍，否则的话，他也不会在三成、五成、八成之时，给予帮助。”
在十万虚影出现的刹那，苏铭意志一动，立刻十万虚影直奔怒吼的厄苍意志，在这轰鸣碰撞中，在厄苍的疯狂与咆哮下，苏铭的夺舍，从八成立刻达到了百中八十五。
全部的金色脉络，成为黑色的部分已经占据了很大的范围，除了正中间的心脏外，四周的脉络看去，只剩下很少的部分还在散出金芒。
八十六、八十八……九十！
九十一、九十二、九十三……十万虚影是规则所化，在与厄苍的对抗中，苏铭的魂急速的扩散，随着时间的流逝，直至苏铭的魂夺舍到了百中九十五！
这一刻，除了那金色的，充满死气的心脏外，四周曾经所有的金色脉络，全部都成为了黑色，全部都成为了苏铭所有，其魂力散开，掀起的波动让厄苍发出了绝望的嘶鸣。
更是在这一瞬，十万石碑世界内，除了那九十多个之前接受考验，可却同时失败被驱出之修外，近乎所有的石碑，都在这一刹，爆发出了强烈的光芒。
十万石碑，除了本身已经超越了十万丈的那小部分外，余下的九万多个石碑，光芒万丈，璀璨刺目，闪烁之下，一个个身影带着骇然与惊呼，一一从石碑内被逼出。
九万多人！
这九万多人都是在石碑世界内，沉浸在记忆中的此地欲获神源者，他们全部现身，这一幕，震动了所有人的心神，让他们不得不骇然，不得不惊呼，这是西环异地自诞生开始，从未出现过之事。
“发生了什么事情！”
“怎会如此，我方才还在石碑世界，却被一股庞大的不可抵抗的意志强行驱出。”
“难道……难道有人成功百万丈，这不可能，这里没有百万丈石碑。”
“你们看，这……我们的石碑，这……”随着一声声惊呼，尤其是最后一个声音的尖锐回旋，立刻所有人都呆在那里，他们震撼的发现，他们的石碑上，除了自己的名字外，突然的，所有石碑都多出了一个名字。
这名字，在他们的名字之上，如这个名字代表之人，才是他们石碑的主人，才是这十万石碑之地的主！
多出的名字，是……墨苏！
周康在一旁，怔怔的看着苏铭的石碑，他的眼前不由得浮现出，当年那个刚刚来到这里的苏铭，在聆听自己经验时，那认真的表情。

832 Ecang as His Clone 7
The first breath.
As Su Ming was shocked and caught in a daze due to the four Great Arts of Divine Essence, they repeated themselves before his eyes. In that short span of a breath, they repeated themselves thousands of times.
As the first breath passed by, Su Ming realized that he was no longer Sui Chen Zi. He seemed to be able to see a faint layer of black smoke coming from the white-robed and white-haired Sui Chen Zi. There were one hundred thousand faces within that black smoke, and all of them belonged to Su Ming.
When the second breath arrived, the one hundred thousand faces formed by black smoke spread out from Sui Chen Zi's body. Once they gathered together behind him, Su Ming could feel that he now possessed a body, and he was no longer a lost soul in the world.
Once the third breath came, Su Ming saw Sui Chen Zi's back. What appeared in his mind was still the shock he received due to the four Divine Essence Arts. That shock seemed to have vaguely fused with his life, and he had a feeling that he had understood.
After the three breaths, Sui Chen Zi, who had his back turned towards Su Ming, shook his head and gradually left into the distance. When Su Ming's body began to fade away, he suddenly spoke.
"The start of my Life Matrix is midwinter. The world is still, and there is no life there. It's as if a vast amount of snow had covered the earth, and all manner of lives ended… This is… what you mean by with one thought, you can destroy the heavens," Su Ming mumbled, a light of understanding shining in his eyes.
"After midwinter, my Life is that of bloody autumn. With blood, I will dye the sky red, turning it into the color of autumn and gain… the will of autumn. This is a transition between life and death. It is the only state where death and life exists at the same time within my Life Matrix. It is not like the complete stillness within midwinter, but neither is it like the vast amount of life during the searing summer… "Since both life and death exist at the same time, it is the state of all lives dying, as well as the state of all lives being reborn… This is what you mean when you say with one thought, you can give life to the universe."
Su Ming was whispering absentmindedly, as if he was not talking to anyone but himself. However, Sui Chen Zi, who had his back turned towards Su Ming in the distance, paused in his footsteps when he heard Su Ming say these two things. He kept still and unmoving, as if he thinking about Su Ming's words and waiting for the rest.
"The Life Matrix I came to understand is a path that moves from death to life, just like how midwinter moves towards spring, but the movement from spring to winter in the world is something that cannot be reversed. However, this is what I lack in my Life Matrix. Even if it is something that cannot be reversed, I still have to tread down this path.
"I was originally lost in my path after the bloody autumn. Now, I have come to understand. The searing summer after the bloody autumn should be filled with an abundance of life force. That life force is hot and can burn away everything. That life force is great and can illuminate all manner of lives.
"This life force… might seem real, but in truth, it is fake. Even if it is real in a sense. It can burn me, and also use its heat to burn all the lives in the universe, extinguishing the fire of life within all the living beings.
"Perhaps before it does anything, it is a mere illusion, but once the lives are extinguished, it will become real. Summer… Summer… Burn all lives to light up my own life so that it would become greater… This is what you mean by with one thought, you can make all lives perish."
Su Ming's eyes grew even brighter. This was just like how he had gained that unique epiphany when he was in Eastern Wastelands Tower all those years ago. Now, from the four Great Arts of Divine Essence, he had come to gain an epiphany that not even Sui Chen Zi had expected.
This was an epiphany that belonged solely to Su Ming.
Sui Chen Zi turned around slowly. At the instant he looked towards Su Ming, Su Ming mumbled his final string of words.
"After the searing summer would be spring… Spring, the time when all lives are revived, where all manner of lives will rise. This should be the first step for all life forms, but for me, this is the final step in my path from death to life. With the power of resurrection, I will complete my awakening.
"If I succeed, then with one thought, I'll be able to give life to all manner of living, but if I fail… then with one thought, I will make all lives perish!" A glint appeared in Su Ming's eyes and he lifted his eyes to look at Sui Chen Zi. He looked at the old man with white hair and wisdom as well as old age in his eyes, and a firm persistence of his beliefs appeared in Su Ming's face.
"This is my understanding!"
At the instant he said these words, a slightly strange look appeared on Sui Chen Zi's face. He seemed as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he could not do so. Instead, with some form of epiphany in his eyes along with a sort of dazed look on his face, his body gradually faded away.
Almost at the instant Sui Chen Zi's body vanished, the space around them also disappeared, and Ecang's low roars echoed in Su Ming's heart once again. A powerful will swept through the area, and booms caused by it crashing into Su Ming's soul could be heard rising into the air.
However, in Su Ming's senses, that sound seemed to be incredibly far away from him. At that moment, his soul was completely burnt. However, even as his entire soul was burnt, he noticed that… he did not disappear.
"I was dead to begin with, and even my soul was dead. What would happen if I died again?" Su Ming mumbled. "It's thought… This is my thought…" Su Ming whispered softly. He remembered the signs that were known as Abyss' Awakening when he first came to control time.
When Dao Yuan came, when the three seals in Su Ming's soul were released, and when that voice telling him that the world was built for Abyss emerged in his head, he could sense that he had moved into the true state of Abyss' Awakening.
Only then was he able to Possess the Crimson Python Phoenix in the Barren Lands of Divine Essence and form his new physical body, though Su Ming had not known about it before he Possessed the creature. It had practically been a natural instinct.
"The Duke of Crimson Flame once said that the Abyss Builders can revive the dead… This is an inborn ability that snatches the power of creation from the universe's hands. It does not conform to the will of heaven, and neither is it in harmony with the universe.
"I've been thinking about where this ability came from all this while… Now I understand, after awakening to Abyss, what will awaken again is the ability to build… To build the Abyss, and to build life…
"So Abyss' Awakening requires… a person to die once, truly, completely, and absolutely." As Su Ming mumbled while coming to understand this, a wisp of his soul reappeared, and as it swiftly expanded, it instantly became a complete soul.
This form of completion was different from before he burned his soul, but Su Ming could not tell just what was different about himself. He could only sense that something about him seemed to have risen to a higher level. It was as if the state of being alive and dead existed at the same time in his soul. He was no longer just a dead soul… but was something dead that possessed life.
It was just like how he had come to understand the will of autumn. At that instant, Su Ming became aware that he had truly moved into the will of autumn. Now, not only had he understood it, but his soul had also managed to obtain it.
From then on, the presence of Bright Yang would no longer be a terrifying thing that could wipe him off, because Su Ming's soul was no longer completely dead. It now possessed life. It was caught between life and death, just like autumn.
It was also during that moment that Ecang's enraged roars as well as its cries of surprise filled with disbelief grew close instead of remaining in the distance. They echoed in the area clearly. Ecang's voice was filled with shock, puzzlement and astonishment towards Su Ming's transformation.
Su Ming's soul had occupied eight-tenths of all the golden venous pathways by then, and it had the heart that was filled with the aura of death at the center surrounded. As Su Ming awakened to Abyss and his soul became complete, he began to Possess Ecang once again without any hesitation.
This time, he was clearly much faster than before. As he fought back against Ecang's will, he also noticed… that he seemed to be able to control some power that did not belong to him.
It was the power of law, the law Sui Chen Zi had left behind before his death!
When that understanding surfaced in Su Ming's heart, runic symbols suddenly appeared within the right eyes of all his one hundred thousand faces. Those runic symbols did not exist before, but even though they had just appeared, there was not a hint of unexpectedness within the faces.
The instant they appeared, the one hundred thousand runic symbols within the right eyes of the one hundred thousand faces flew out at the same time. Endless rays of black light spread out from them, and each of them turned into a black shadow.
Su Ming had seen such shadows before. They were those that could kill all the people within the world with one hundred thousand stone monuments.
At that moment, one hundred thousand of such shadows appeared and… bowed at Su Ming. As they did so, he clearly sensed that he could control them.
'Sui Chen Zi was hoping that a person who could successfully Possess Ecang would appear, or else he wouldn't have provided help when I Possessed a third, a half, and eight-tenths of those venous pathways.'
At the instant those shadows appeared, a thought rose in Su Ming's head. Immediately, the one hundred thousand shadows charged towards Ecang's will with furious roars. As they crashed into it with loud booming sounds ringing in the air and as Ecang roared madly, Su Ming immediately started Possessing, raising his coverage from eight- tenths to eighty-five-hundredths.
The parts that had turned black from the golden now occupied most of the territory. Besides the heart at the center, only very little was still shining in gold when Su Ming looked around himself.
Eighty-six, eight-eight, ninety!
Ninety-one, ninety-two, ninety-three… The one hundred thousand shadows were formed by Sui Chen Zi's law. As they fought against Ecang, Su Ming's soul swiftly spread out. As time passed, Su Ming's soul Possessed ninety-five-hundredths of all the venous pathways!
By then, besides the golden heart that was filled with the aura of death, all the other venous pathways that were previously gold had all turned black. All of them had become Su Ming's property. The power of his soul spread out, and the waves of power that were stirred up caused Ecang to let out a cry of despair.
It was also during that instant that besides the stone monuments that belonged to the ninety something people who received the test, failed, and were chased out at the same time, almost all the stone monuments erupted forth with a powerful ray of lights.
One hundred thousand stone monuments. Besides the small portion of those who had surpassed one million feet, the other ninety thousand something stone monuments shone with a light that spread far and wide. That light was brilliant and piercing to the eyes. As it shone, numerous figures with shock and cries of surprise were forced out of their stone monuments.
Ninety thousand something people!
These ninety thousand something people who wanted to obtain the Divine Essence and who had been immersed in the world formed by their memories in the stone monuments all appeared. This scene shook all the people's hearts, causing them to be unable to help themselves, they cried out in surprise. This was something that had never happened since the time Western Ring Nebula's foreign land was born.
"What happened?!"
"How could this be? I was in the world in the stone monument just now, but I was forcefully expelled by a will that I could not fight against."
"Could it be… Could it be that someone has reached ten million feet? That's impossible. There's no stone monument here that is ten million feet tall."
"Look. That is… Our stone monuments, they are…" Cries of surprise rang in the air. The last one was especially piercing, and immediately, all the people in the place were stunned. To their shock, they discovered that besides their own name, another one had suddenly appeared on their stone monuments.
That name was above theirs, as if the owner of that name was the true owner of all the stone monuments, the true master of the land with the one hundred thousand stone monuments!
The additional name… was Mo Su!
Zhou Kang stood by the side and stared at Su Ming's stone monument blankly. Unbidden, the image of Su Ming listening to his experiences seriously when he had just arrived in this place appeared in his mind.

"value": "Chapter 512 Annihilating The Will\nThe mighty figure seemed dreamlike as it stood in mid air while emitted blazing divine lights that illuminated the heavens and the earth, and it emitted a terrifying might that caused the heavens and the earth to tremble while casting the world into a shadow.\nThis was a true strand of the will of a Heavenly Immortal that was branded on the jade talisman. Presently, it had been activated by Shang Ping, and it easily destroyed the Grand Astral Palm to rescue Shang Que, so it was obvious how formidable it was.\nMoreover, this strand of the will of a Heavenly Immortal was different from Pei Yu’s Heavenly Immortal’s Decree. This was a pure strand of the will of a Heavenly Immortal, causing it to possess terrifying might that even Earthly Immortal Realm experts didn’t dare go against head on.\nOn the other hand, Pei Yu’s Heavenly Immortal’s Decree was only a treasure of writing that was casually written by a Heavenly Immortal, and its ghastly writing had imperceptibly left behind a trace of the Heavenly Immortal’s aura.\nThe difference between the two was simply like the distance between the heavens and the earth, and it could be discerned from the deep reverence within the expressions of everyone.\nIn other words, this was a strand of a Heavenly Immortal’s will, and it could be entirely taken to be a clone, a strand of thought, and the strength it possessed was naturally astonishing.\nSuch a precious treasure was extremely rare even in the Prestigious Clans like the Shang Clan, and they would utterly not utilize it unless they encountered an extremely great turn of events.\nChen Xi’s countenance was pale as he stared at the mighty figure that stood in midair, and he muttered to himself. The Grand Astral Palm being destroyed earlier caused him to suffer a certain level of heavy injury, and if it wasn’t for him severing the connections with it in time, his soul might have been destroyed.\n“Chen Xi, your strength is indeed shocking. But so what? You’re going to die beneath the will of a Heavenly Immortal in the end!” In the distance, Shang Que’s gaze was ghastly as he shouted gloomily.\nChen Xi didn’t answer him, and only Shang Que’s gloomy and explosive shout reverberated in the air.\nEven the distant spectators went silent as they sighed endlessly in their hearts. They similarly felt that Chen Xi would probably be unable to escape calamity today.\nThe reason was extremely simple, when faced with the will of a Heavenly Immortal, even Earthly Immortal Realm experts could only flee, let alone a Rebirth Realm cultivator?\nIf Chen Xi possessed a great weapon like this, then he would be able to turn the tide and save the desperate situation. But obviously, it was utterly impossible for Chen Xi to possess one.\nAfter all, he was from the extremely ordinary Darchu Dynasty. In terms of origin, he was utterly incapable of comparing with a Prestigious Clan, so how could he possibly possess a precious treasure that could compare to a Heavenly Immortal Jade Talisman.\nThe reason disciples of Prestigious Clans were strong wasn’t only reflected by their strength, and it was also reflected by their numerous trump cards that ordinary people were incapable of attaining. This was sufficient to allow them to stand on invincible ground in the Primeval Battlefield.\nOn the other hand, ordinary Dynasties didn’t have such resources and reserves. No matter how formidable Chen Xi’s strength was, he was much more inferior to the Prestigious Clans in terms of trump cards, resources, and reserves, and it was impossible to make up for.\n“Alas, this fellow did so many stirring things right after entering the city. Now that he’s about to die, I actually feel slightly unable to bear the sight.”\n“Hmph! This is the consequences of going against our Shang Clan! A rare genius? First on the Warsoul Tablet? If our Shang Clan wants to kill you, then it’s simply easier than squashing an ant to death.”\nThe Shang Clan disciples looked at the solitary figure of Chen Xi in the distance as if they were looking at a person that was about to die, and they ridiculed him with disdain.\nShang Ping didn’t drive the Heavenly Immortal’s will to annihilate Chen Xi right away, but started sizing Chen Xi up unhurriedly while a trace of a teasing expression that was like the expression of a cat teasing a mouse appeared on his face.\nHe wanted to see what expression Chen Xi had when facing the threat of death. Would Chen Xi be terrified to the point of wetting himself? Or fall on his knees and beg for mercy? Just thinking about this caused him to feel excited.\nOf course, he acted in this way because he wanted to let the distant spectators see this. After all, Chen Xi had trespassed into the Shang Clan’s territory today, and he’d killed to the point there was almost no one capable of restraining him. To a certain extent, this had struck a blow to the reputation of the Shang Clan. Coupled with the Heavenly Immortal Jade Talisman being a one time use treasure, annihilating Chen Xi was the minor objective, and the main objective was to warn the other powers in Primeval City.\nAt this moment, as he looked at the deep reverence in the expressions of the distant spectators, Shang Ping knew that he’d achieved his objective, and he only had to annihilate Chen Xi next before he could consider his mission completed flawlessly.\nHowever, right when Shang Ping was about to make a move, he suddenly noticed that the distant Chen Xi had actually withdrawn an enormous and pitch black bow.\nThis pitch black bow was suffused with a dim and cold light, and it emitted an ancient, unconstrained, and mysterious aura of Shaman Energy. It was precisely the Shaman Treasure Chen Xi had seized from Qi Yin — the Staruin Bow!\nA Shaman Treasure was a weapon utilized by body refiners. It was extremely difficult to refine and could only be refined by a body refiner.\nThere was only a single material to refine a Shaman Treasure, the corpse of an ancient Fiendgod. The bones, teeth, meridians, nails, and even hair, eyes, and internal organs could be refined into Shaman Treasures. Only the corpse of an ancient Fiendgod was capable of fusing with the energy of Shaman Energy and allowing it to bring forth a might similar to a magic treasure.\nBut Shaman Treasures were extremely rare and even rarer than Immortal Artifacts. After all, the corpse of an ancient Fiendgod had always been an extremely rare existence, and there were very few left in the world. It was precisely because of this that 99% of body refiners didn’t possess a Shaman Treasure to use, and this obviously showed how precious Shaman Treasures were.\nOf course, even if body refiners didn’t possess a Shaman Treasure, body refiners would still be able to completely crush qi refiners with a same cultivation by relying on their bodies that were comparable to magic treasures.\n“A Shaman Treasure!?\nShang Que’s eyes lit up.\nHe was a body refiner, so he was naturally extremely familiar with Shaman Treasures. But, unfortunately, even if it was in the Shang Clan, a Shaman Treasure was extremely rare. Moreover, it was utterly impossible for such a precious treasure to fall into his hands.\nAt this moment, when he saw the pitch black bow in Chen Xi’s hands was actually a Shaman Treasure, Shang Que’s heart instantly started burning. It’s truly a gift from the heavens. After this fellow is killed, this Shaman Treasure will become mine!\n“A Shaman Treasure? Hmph! Do you think you can defeat the will of a Heavenly Immortal like this?” Shang Ping laughed coldly, and his tone revealed dense disdain.\nIt’s already a time like this, yet he’s not fleeing as soon as possible, but actually wants to go against the will of a Heavenly Immortal.

第五百一十二章
那一道伟岸虚影如梦似幻，当空而立，周身释放炽盛神霞，光照天地，散发出的可怖威势，令天地都颤抖，风云色变。
这是一缕真正的天仙意志，烙印在玉符中，如今被商平激发而出，轻松击破星空大手印，将商雀救了下来，可想而知其威势有多么强大了。
并且这一缕天仙意志，和裴羽的天仙法旨不同，这是纯粹的天仙意志，力量可怖，地仙老祖都不敢撄其锋芒。
而那裴羽的天仙法旨，只不过是一尊天仙随手书写的墨宝，字迹森然，无形中残留了天仙的一丝气息。
两者之间的差别，简直就是判若云泥，这从在场众人神情中那深深的敬畏之色中，就足以看得出来。
换句话说，这一缕天仙意志，完全可以视作天仙的一尊分神，一缕神念，其所掌控的力量自然是惊世骇俗的。
像这等至宝，即便在洛水商氏这等古国世家中，也罕见之极，非遭遇重大变故，根本就不舍得动用。
“天仙意志么……”凝视着那当空傲立的伟岸虚影，陈汐脸色苍白，喃喃自语，刚才星空大手印被毁，令他也遭受到一定的创伤，若非他及时切断与手印的联系，甚至差点就被震碎了神魂。
“陈汐，你的实力的确令我吃惊，不过，再厉害又如何？ 终究要死在这天仙意志之下！”
远处，商雀眸光森然，阴冷喝道。
就连远处观战的众人也是一阵默然，心中暗叹不已，他们同样认为，陈汐今日只怕已是在劫难逃了。
原因很简单，面对天仙意志，就连地仙老祖都只能望风而逃，更何况是一名涅槃修士？
若是陈汐手中也拥有这等大杀器，或可以扭转乾坤，力挽狂澜，但很显然，他根本不可能拥有。
毕竟他出身普普通通的大楚王朝，论底蕴，根本就没法和古国世家相比，身上又怎可能携带能够媲美天仙玉符的至宝？
古国世家子弟之所以强大，不仅体现在整体实力上，还在于他们拥有常人无法企及的诸多底牌，足以令他们在这太古战场当中立于不败之地。
而普通王朝就没这等底蕴了，哪怕个人实力再强，在底蕴和底牌上，终究要比古国世家差上太多了，无法弥补。
“哎，这家伙刚进城就干出如此多轰动的事情，如今见他即将死去，我竟然有些不忍心了。”
“哼，这就是和咱们洛水商氏作对的下场，什么惊世之才，什么武皇战魂碑第一，想要让他死，简直比捏死一只蝼蚁还轻松。”
那些洛水商氏的子弟，望着远处陈汐那孤零零的身影，就像看着一个将死之人般，发出讥诮不屑的嘲讽。
商平也并没有立即驱动天仙意志去灭杀陈汐，而是优哉游哉地打量着陈汐，脸上带着一丝猫戏老鼠般的戏谑表情。
他就是想看一看，陈汐面临死亡威胁，会是怎样的表现，吓得屁滚尿流？ 或者是跪地求饶？ 只想一想都令人兴奋啊。
当然，他这么做，也是为了给远处观战的其他势力看，毕竟陈汐今日孤身一人闯来洛水商氏，大杀四方，差点都没人能直至住他，这在一定程度上也打击到了洛水商氏的威名。 再加上天仙玉符只能动用一次，所以诛杀陈汐事小，敲山震虎才是他的最终目的。
此时，看着远处众人脸色那深深的敬畏之色，商平知道，自己的目的达到了，接下来只需诛杀掉陈汐，就算圆满完成任务了。
然而，就在商平刚准备有所行动时，就猛地看到，远处的陈汐竟拿出了一柄巨大漆黑的弯弓。
这柄弓漆黑中泛着幽暗冷光，散发一股古老、粗犷、神秘的巫力气息，正是陈汐从齐胤手中夺得的巫宝——灭星弓！
所谓巫宝，就是炼体者用的兵刃，炼制起来极为困难，并且只能炼体者自己去炼制。
巫宝的炼制材料只有一种，那就是远古神魔的尸体，其骨骼、牙齿、经脉、指甲、甚至是头发、眼睛、内脏都可以炼制成巫宝。 也只有远古神魔的尸体骨骼，才能融汇巫力的力量，使之发挥出如同法宝般的威力。
并且每一件巫宝，都必须炼体者以自身精血喂食和孕养，然后不断以巫力淬炼其中的杂质，如此方能达到血溶于水，如臂使指的地步。 不过巫宝极其少见，甚至比仙器都难以见到，毕竟那远古神魔的尸体本就是罕见无比的存在，留存在世上的极其至少。
当然，即便没有巫宝，炼体者凭借自己那堪比法宝的肉身，照样能够在同阶之中，完全碾压炼气士。
“巫宝！
商雀眼瞳一亮。
他原本就是炼体者，对巫宝自然熟悉之极，不过可惜的是，即便在洛水商氏中，巫宝也是罕见之极，并且那等至宝，也根本不可能落入他的手中。
此时见陈汐手中那张漆黑大弓竟然是一件巫宝，商雀的心思一下子火热起来，真是上天恩赐啊，等杀了这家伙之后，这件巫宝也将会是我囊中之物了！
哼，你以为这样就能战胜天仙意志？” 商平冷冷一笑，语气中透出浓浓的不屑。
远处观战的众人也不禁摇头，陈汐明白是疾病乱投医，都这时候了，不赶紧逃跑，竟然还要和天仙意志抗争，真是有点魔怔了。
然而陈汐却不理会这些，抬手从胸口处摘下一件物品，而撘弓拉弦，巫力汹涌。
这一刻，他通体缭绕巫力，配上那比肩山岳的高大身影，宛如一尊远古神魔复活般，灭星弓被拉的状若满月。
随后，“嗡”的一声，弓弦巨震，如神魔吟唱，惊乱虚空，荡起阵阵可怕的涟漪。
嗖！
下一刻，一抹璀璨似彗星般的白光横空，化成一道匹练长虹，裹挟着一股无与伦比的神威，朝那天仙意志爆射而出！
而就在这时，那当空而立的伟岸虚影也霍然转身，踏步如天鼓，咚咚直响，震动天地，震得所有人心头巨颤，直欲吐血。
伟岸虚影右手随意一抓，就将那爆射而至的白光抓在掌中，轻松惬意之极，简直不费吹灰之力。
“完了！”
“唉，终究还是螳臂挡车啊。”
“天仙意志果然非人力可抵，这陈汐只怕再无翻盘的可能了。”
见到这一幕，远处观战的众人都忍不住叹息不已，而商雀、商平他们，再忍不住发出一阵大笑，幸灾乐祸。
然而就在下一刻，他们的笑容顿时凝固，眼眸死死盯着半空中那天仙意志，一副活见鬼的表情。
发生了什么事……”远处观战众人一怔，当看清楚苍穹中所发生的一切，顿时也是一副如遭雷劈的表情。
半空中，那天仙意志身上，猛地产生一股剧烈的力量波动，仿似被一条毒蛇咬住了右手般，疯狂地甩动右臂，嘶吼不已，声音中透着无尽的惊恐之色。
他的右手上，有着一道炽白的光，仔细看去，那赫然是一件小指粗细，通体晶莹剔透，氤氲乳白神霞的小鼎！
这件小鼎，也正是陈汐从白骨长河底部获得的那一件，神异无比，曾将一具神灵尸骸上所烙印的大道痕迹、神性、神火统统吞吸掉，之后就陷入到了沉寂当中。
在陨宝之岛上的时候，陈汐曾遭遇到裴羽祭出的天仙法旨的击杀，危急关头，正是这件小鼎抵消了天仙法旨的攻击，并且将天仙法旨力量全部给吞吸掉了。
那时候，陈汐就隐隐猜到，小鼎来头巨大，从其吞吸的力量中，就能推测出一丝端倪。 试想，世上又有哪种法宝只对神灵、甚至是天仙的力量感兴趣？
小鼎强大就强大在，它不仅对这些更高等的力量感兴趣，还能够将吞吸掉，为自己所用！
也正因此，当陈汐见到商平祭出这一道那天仙意志时，他第一个想到的就是小鼎。
果不其然，当那天仙意志横空而出时，原本沉寂不动的小鼎顿时变得躁动起来，如有灵性一般，散发出一圈圈乳白色炽盛涟漪。 样的异状。
此时见到天仙意志被小鼎所纠缠，无法挣脱，陈汐顿时心中大定，暗松了口气。
哗啦啦！ 苍穹中，在众人一道道骇然无比的目光注视下，那天仙意志所化的虚影，竟像水流般剧烈滚荡着，朝其右手上的白光涌去，身影也变得越来越模糊，快要消散一空。
下一刻，那一道令在场所有人都深深敬畏不已的伟岸虚影，就彻底消失不见，融入了那一道白光之中。
那道白光，自然是小鼎，吞吸了这一道天仙意志之后，它重新化作一抹流光，飞回了陈汐手中，渐渐沉寂下去，就像吃饱喝足之后，进入酣睡当中了一样。 天仙意志竟然……被击败了！
见到这一幕，全场鸦雀无声，包括那商氏子弟在内的所有人，都呆若木偶，不敢相信眼前所发生的一切。

Chapter 512 Annihilating The Will
The mighty figure seemed dreamlike as it stood in mid air while emitted blazing divine lights that illuminated the heavens and the earth, and it emitted a terrifying might that caused the heavens and the earth to tremble while casting the world into a shadow.
This was a true strand of the will of a Heavenly Immortal that was branded on the jade talisman. Presently, it had been activated by Shang Ping, and it easily destroyed the Grand Astral Palm to rescue Shang Que, so it was obvious how formidable it was.
Moreover, this strand of the will of a Heavenly Immortal was different from Pei Yu’s Heavenly Immortal’s Decree. This was a pure strand of the will of a Heavenly Immortal, causing it to possess terrifying might that even Earthly Immortal Realm experts didn’t dare go against head on.
On the other hand, Pei Yu’s Heavenly Immortal’s Decree was only a treasure of writing that was casually written by a Heavenly Immortal, and its ghastly writing had imperceptibly left behind a trace of the Heavenly Immortal’s aura.
The difference between the two was simply like the distance between the heavens and the earth, and it could be discerned from the deep reverence within the expressions of everyone.
In other words, this was a strand of a Heavenly Immortal’s will, and it could be entirely taken to be a clone, a strand of thought, and the strength it possessed was naturally astonishing.
Such a precious treasure was extremely rare even in the Prestigious Clans like the Shang Clan, and they would utterly not utilize it unless they encountered an extremely great turn of events.
Chen Xi’s countenance was pale as he stared at the mighty figure that stood in midair, and he muttered to himself. The Grand Astral Palm being destroyed earlier caused him to suffer a certain level of heavy injury, and if it wasn’t for him severing the connections with it in time, his soul might have been destroyed.
“Chen Xi, your strength is indeed shocking. But so what? You’re going to die beneath the will of a Heavenly Immortal in the end!” In the distance, Shang Que’s gaze was ghastly as he shouted gloomily.
Chen Xi didn’t answer him, and only Shang Que’s gloomy and explosive shout reverberated in the air.
Even the distant spectators went silent as they sighed endlessly in their hearts. They similarly felt that Chen Xi would probably be unable to escape calamity today.
The reason was extremely simple, when faced with the will of a Heavenly Immortal, even Earthly Immortal Realm experts could only flee, let alone a Rebirth Realm cultivator?
If Chen Xi possessed a great weapon like this, then he would be able to turn the tide and save the desperate situation. But obviously, it was utterly impossible for Chen Xi to possess one.
After all, he was from the extremely ordinary Darchu Dynasty. In terms of origin, he was utterly incapable of comparing with a Prestigious Clan, so how could he possibly possess a precious treasure that could compare to a Heavenly Immortal Jade Talisman.
The reason disciples of Prestigious Clans were strong wasn’t only reflected by their strength, and it was also reflected by their numerous trump cards that ordinary people were incapable of attaining. This was sufficient to allow them to stand on invincible ground in the Primeval Battlefield.
On the other hand, ordinary Dynasties didn’t have such resources and reserves. No matter how formidable Chen Xi’s strength was, he was much more inferior to the Prestigious Clans in terms of trump cards, resources, and reserves, and it was impossible to make up for.
“Alas, this fellow did so many stirring things right after entering the city. Now that he’s about to die, I actually feel slightly unable to bear the sight.”
“Hmph! This is the consequences of going against our Shang Clan! A rare genius? First on the Warsoul Tablet? If our Shang Clan wants to kill you, then it’s simply easier than squashing an ant to death.”
The Shang Clan disciples looked at the solitary figure of Chen Xi in the distance as if they were looking at a person that was about to die, and they ridiculed him with disdain.
Shang Ping didn’t drive the Heavenly Immortal’s will to annihilate Chen Xi right away, but started sizing Chen Xi up unhurriedly while a trace of a teasing expression that was like the expression of a cat teasing a mouse appeared on his face.
He wanted to see what expression Chen Xi had when facing the threat of death. Would Chen Xi be terrified to the point of wetting himself? Or fall on his knees and beg for mercy? Just thinking about this caused him to feel excited.
Of course, he acted in this way because he wanted to let the distant spectators see this. After all, Chen Xi had trespassed into the Shang Clan’s territory today, and he’d killed to the point there was almost no one capable of restraining him. To a certain extent, this had struck a blow to the reputation of the Shang Clan. Coupled with the Heavenly Immortal Jade Talisman being a one time use treasure, annihilating Chen Xi was the minor objective, and the main objective was to warn the other powers in Primeval City.
At this moment, as he looked at the deep reverence in the expressions of the distant spectators, Shang Ping knew that he’d achieved his objective, and he only had to annihilate Chen Xi next before he could consider his mission completed flawlessly.
However, right when Shang Ping was about to make a move, he suddenly noticed that the distant Chen Xi had actually withdrawn an enormous and pitch black bow.
This pitch black bow was suffused with a dim and cold light, and it emitted an ancient, unconstrained, and mysterious aura of Shaman Energy. It was precisely the Shaman Treasure Chen Xi had seized from Qi Yin — the Staruin Bow!
A Shaman Treasure was a weapon utilized by body refiners. It was extremely difficult to refine and could only be refined by a body refiner.
There was only a single material to refine a Shaman Treasure, the corpse of an ancient Fiendgod. The bones, teeth, meridians, nails, and even hair, eyes, and internal organs could be refined into Shaman Treasures. Only the corpse of an ancient Fiendgod was capable of fusing with the energy of Shaman Energy and allowing it to bring forth a might similar to a magic treasure.
But Shaman Treasures were extremely rare and even rarer than Immortal Artifacts. After all, the corpse of an ancient Fiendgod had always been an extremely rare existence, and there were very few left in the world. It was precisely because of this that 99% of body refiners didn’t possess a Shaman Treasure to use, and this obviously showed how precious Shaman Treasures were.
Of course, even if body refiners didn’t possess a Shaman Treasure, body refiners would still be able to completely crush qi refiners with a same cultivation by relying on their bodies that were comparable to magic treasures.
“A Shaman Treasure!?
Shang Que’s eyes lit up.
He was a body refiner, so he was naturally extremely familiar with Shaman Treasures. But, unfortunately, even if it was in the Shang Clan, a Shaman Treasure was extremely rare. Moreover, it was utterly impossible for such a precious treasure to fall into his hands.
At this moment, when he saw the pitch black bow in Chen Xi’s hands was actually a Shaman Treasure, Shang Que’s heart instantly started burning. It’s truly a gift from the heavens. After this fellow is killed, this Shaman Treasure will become mine!
“A Shaman Treasure? Hmph! Do you think you can defeat the will of a Heavenly Immortal like this?” Shang Ping laughed coldly, and his tone revealed dense disdain.
It’s already a time like this, yet he’s not fleeing as soon as possible, but actually wants to go against the will of a Heavenly Immortal. He really has gone slightly mad.
However, Chen Xi paid no attention to all his, and he raised his hand to remove something from his chest before drawing the bow while his Shaman Energy surged.
At this moment, his entire body was coiled by Shaman Energy, and coupled with his enormous figure that was comparable to a mountain, he seemed like an ancient Fiendgod that had come back to life.
The Staruin Bow was drawn into a complete arc like a full moon, and then the bow shook greatly. It emitted a sound that seemed as if Fiendgods were chanting while it caused space to become chaotic, and it gave rise to wave after wave of terrifying ripples.
Swoosh!
In the next moment, a wisp of dazzling white light soared through the sky like a shooting star and transformed into a ray of light that carried peerless divine might as it shot explosively towards the Heavenly Immortal’s will!
Right at this moment, the mighty figure that stood in mid air swiftly turned around. It seemed as if it was walking on drums that shook the heavens and the earth, and it violently shook the hearts of everyone to the point of almost spitting blood.
The mighty figure’s right hand casually grabbed the white light that shot out explosively towards it, and it was done in an extremely relaxed manner to the point it simply seemed as easy as blowing off dust.
“He’s finished!”
“Alas, it’s a futile effort in the end.”
“The will of a Heavenly Immortal really isn’t something the strength of a mortal can go against. It’s probably impossible for Chen Xi to turn the tides again.”
The distant spectators couldn’t help but sigh endlessly when they saw this scene, whereas, Shang Que, Shang Ping, and the others couldn’t help but roar with laughter and take pleasure in Chen Xi’s misfortune.
However, in the next moment, their smiles instantly froze, and they stared fixedly at the Heavenly Immortal’s will in midair as if they’d seen a ghost.
“Hmm? What’s going on…?” The distant spectators were stunned, and when they saw what had happened in the sky, they instantly had expressions that seemed as if they’d been struck by lightning.
In midair, a violent energy fluctuation suddenly arose on the body of the Heavenly Immortal’s will, and it seemed as if a venomous snake had bitten its right hand. The Heavenly Immortal’s will swung its right arm madly while roaring endlessly, and its voice revealed boundless terror.
There was a blazing white light on its right hand, and if one looked carefully, it was shockingly a pinky size crystalline and translucent tiny cauldron that was enshrouded with milky white divine lights!
This tiny cauldron was precisely the tiny cauldron Chen Xi obtained from the bottom of the river of bones. It was extremely miraculous and had once completely absorbed the Grand Dao traces, divinity, and Divine Flames within the corpse of a god before falling into silence.
When he was on the Isle of Fallen Treasures, Chen Xi had once suffered the assault of the Heavenly Immortal’s Decree Pei Yu activated, and at the critical moment, it was precisely this tiny cauldron that had neutralized the Heavenly Immortal’s Decree’s attack and completely absorbed the energy of the Heavenly Immortal’s Decree.
At that time, Chen Xi vaguely guessed that the tiny cauldron had an extremely great origin, and he was able to infer a slight clue from its ability to absorb the Heavenly Immortal’s Decree. Just think about it, what sort of magic treasure in the world would only be interested with the energy of gods and even Heavenly Immortals?
The tiny cauldron was formidable because it wasn’t just interested with these high level energies, it was even capable of absorbing these energies and claiming the energies for itself!
It was precisely because of this that when Chen Xi saw Shang Ping activate the will of a Heavenly Immortal, the tiny cauldron was the first thing he’d thought about.
As expected, when the Heavenly Immortal’s will soared out, the originally silent and unmoving tiny cauldron instantly became restless, and it emitted circle after circle of blazing milky white colored ripples as if it possessed intelligence. So Chen Xi didn’t hesitate in the slightest to shoot the tiny cauldron out with the Staruin Bow as soon as he saw this.
At this moment, when he saw the Heavenly Immortal’s will being entangled by the tiny cauldron to the point of being unable to struggle free, Chen Xi instantly felt at ease in his heart as he secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Under the numerous exceedingly astounded gazes of all the spectators, the figure formed by the Heavenly Immortal’s will actually started rippling violently like water in the sky, and these ripples gushed towards the white light on the figure’s right hand before its figure started becoming more and more blurry, to the point it was on the verge of dissipating.
In the next moment, the mighty figure that caused everyone present to feel deep and extreme reverence had vanished completely, and it had fused into the white light.
The white light was naturally the tiny cauldron. After it absorbed the Heavenly Immortal’s will, it once again transformed into a wisp of flowing light that flew back into Chen Xi’s hand before gradually quieting down, and it seemed as if it had eaten its fill and was entering into deep sleep.
The entire scene was utterly silent when everyone saw this scene, and everyone including all the Shang Clan disciples were stupefied like statues and didn’t dare believe everything that had happened before their eyes.

Still, since when did the Douance have such a person in their family?”\nIt was obvious that Cillin was a veteran who had fought countless battles. There was no way he could be one of those fresh greenhorns. Moreover, Huo Neil could see that the kid had acted pretty decisively, without a bit of hesitation to be seen in his movements.\nInside the vast green woods, after two crashing sounds, Cillin slowly walked beside the crimson flying car. The body of the car was already warped, and some of its internal components were scattered to the surroundings or even further away. The energy system of the flying car had not exploded, since it was built with increased safety in mind. The driver did not suffer too much injuries thanks to the air bag, even though he was still inside the car. However, he was obviously still shaken. His eyes were dull, his body was shivering continuously, and his teeth were chattering.\nCillin looked at the man once before grabbing his backpack from inside the car. He counted the items inside, and felt his mouth twitch. .\nHe pulled away the air bag with one hand, then grabbed the man’s face and shook him a little. It was only then the man’s focus slowly shifted onto Cillin. His already pale face turned even whiter from fright as he stuttered, “Don’t… don’t kill me… You can take the bag. I’ll pay you… all the money you want…” This time he was truly afraid. He had never encountered such a thing. When his car was slapped down from the sky, he had felt as if his entire body was wrought with despair.\n“You make it sound like I’m the one who robbed you.” Cillin took out his tablet and wrote something on it. Then he passed it over to the man to have a look, “You will have to compensate me – as you should – since your criminal acts have caused me severe losses. Look, the details are all written in there. A hoverboard is 2000 galactic credits; the expended batteries are 500 galactic credits. You ate three of my snacks, and every one of them costs 5 galactic credits so it’s 15 galactic credits in total. However, I bought these from the trade zone and there is no way I am going back to buy them again, so let’s round them up to 30. There is also 10000 galactic credits worth of emotional trauma compensation. But of course, the most important thing is that this matter has wasted my time. As you know, time is more precious than gold, so I guess I’ll just have to suffer the loss and fine you another 10000 galactic credits…” After summing everything up Cillin concluded, “They all add up to a total of fifty thousand galactic credits. Is that a problem?”\nThe man lost his will to think long ago. He could only shake and nod his head.\n“Alright, that’s it then. Press your fingerprint here.” Cillin put the tablet into his hands.\nThe man shakingly pressed his fingerprint on the tablet.\n“Where’s your card?”\nThe man shuddered again and took out his Seven Lights card.\n“Wow, an orange rank. Which grade are you?”\nIt was at this moment that a police siren rang. the eyes of the man inside the car, who was full of fear, suddenly lit up as if they had found their savior.\nThe police had sent a whole team of police cruisers. In the past, it would’ve been incredible if even a single police car was sent out to deal with such a case, but today, it could be said that they had mobilized with the utmost seriousness.\nGerrard had led the team personally. Along the way, there were only three swiftly moving targets on the surveillance monitor in his car, and he could differentiate which one was a flying car and which one a hoverboard. This was because both hoverboards and flying cars had GPS tracking system installed in them. However, Gerrard would not know what exactly was going on from this information alone, so when he saw the hoverboard’s signal vanish from the monitor, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice pool. Crap, how the hell is he going to explain this to Sir Mo?\nAlthough both flying cars had crashed, their car bodies were still intact, so the GPS signals had not disappeared as well. That was why Gerrard had urged his men to move faster after he saw both cars coming to a sudden and bizarre stop. But when they saw the real scene, everyone in the police team was a little dumbfounded.\nBoth flying cars had crashed? What happened?\nRight now, the only person Gerrard was concerned about was Cillin. Huo Neil had already sent Cillin’s information to Gerrard, so Gerrard had rushed right at Cillin the moment he arrived at the scene and saw him.\n“Cillin Douance, is it? I am the captain of the police force Gerrard.” Gerrard said with a friendly smile. When he saw that Cillin was okay, the weight on his chest was lifted.\nCillin was leaning against the car, and when he saw Gerrard walking over, he was sure that he did not recognize this person. But before he could answer, they abruptly heard the person still inside the car screaming, “Help!” He cried out while did his best to extract himself from the car before running right at Gerrard who had a police emblem on his uniform.\nGerrard had dumped the guy running at him on his men at the back. He had no time to bother with him right now.\n“Good day, captain Gerrard. I am very thankful that the police could come over to uphold justice, but we have already come to an agreement and settled behind closed doors.”\nThat would be the best outcome alright! Gerrard shouted in his heart. There was no way he was getting involved in the contest between the younger generation of the great families. But when he thought of Sir Mo, Gerrard still gave the person who robbed the bag and deducted a demerit in credits.\n“Captain Gerrard, do you have a card reader with you? I would like to borrow it for a moment and make a transfer.”\n“A transfer? Uh, yeah I have one in my car.”\nGerrard led Cillin over to his car, and when he saw Cillin swiped the card, transferred the funds and very calmly returned the card back to its original owner, he couldn’t help but think that they might have really acted unnecessarily by coming over.\nWith Gerrard’s experience, naturally he was able to guess what had happened after seeing the scene. He couldn’t help but think much more highly of Cillin. If he had come because of Sir Mo’s face, then he had acknowledged Cillin’s abilities now.\nThe other person in the bright yellow car was also brought over. His condition was pretty much the same as the guy in the crimson car. He was shivering so much that the police almost had to carry him all the way.\nAfter the major matters had been taken care of, Gerrard had his men dealt with the remaining matters on site and drove Cillin and a few more team members away. However, Cillin had gotten off the car after he had arrived at the edge of entertainment zone’s Sleepless City. He still needed to survey the state of affairs in Sleepless City.\nOnce Cillin had gotten off, a police team member beside Gerrard exclaimed, “Captain, that kid’s actually a King Kong, isn’t he?”\nTo chase a flying car with a hoverboard? It was a seriously unimaginable feat. Moreover, he had relied on a hoverboard that uses a common battery alone to wreck the two flying cars. Not everyone could do this; not even Gerrard would dare say that he could do the same without a chance of failure.\nAt the same time, a video was uploaded into Seven Lights’ internet, and the name ‘Hoverboy’ began to circulate within Seven Lights."

第二十三章
飞车内的两人不明所以，但训练部办公室屏幕前的霍钉和奈特可是看得清清楚楚。
在飞滑爆掉的一瞬间，西林借着爆炸产生的冲击力冲向那辆赤红的飞车，一巴掌拍在车尾，同时又接着拍车尾的力飞速踢向旁边的那辆明黄飞车。
眨眼之间，两辆飞车，一辆被拍落，一辆被踢飞。
霍钉和奈特震惊的不是西林是否将这两辆车拍落或者踢飞，而是西林把握时机的准确度。
借用飞滑因负荷过大而产生的爆炸冲力，早一刻不会借力成功，晚一刻会被爆炸的冲击波伤到。 同时西林借力飞射而出之后下一个着力点能够准确定位在赤红飞车的车上，然后再一个借力将明黄飞车踢飞。
奈特指着屏幕上安全落地的西林，道：“这样的人怎么可能默默无闻？”
霍钉并没有回答奈特的问题，而是感慨道：“不愧是莫老罩着的人哪！ 不过，道昂斯家什么时候出了这么个人物？”
这样的人，一看就是身经百战的老手，不可能和那些粉嫩的新人一样，而且仅仅只是这个片段，霍钉就能看出那小子出手相当果断，没有丝毫犹豫。
车身已经变形，内部的一些部件散落在四周，还有一些飞落在远处，飞车的能量系统安全性比较好，并没有爆炸。 而车里面的人虽然被车内的保护囊护着没有多大伤害，但显然惊魂未定，目光呆滞，身体还在不停发抖，牙齿发出咯咯咯的响声。
看了看那人，西林从车内拿出自己的背包，清了清里面的东西，撇嘴，竟然吃了他买的几个点心。
一把将保护囊扯掉，西林揪着那人的脸摇了摇，那人才将焦距慢慢移到西林身上。 原本就吓得苍白的脸色更惨白了，哆哆嗦嗦的道：“别……别杀我……背包还你，你要多少钱……我赔给你……”他是真怕了，从来没遇到过这样的事情。 车被拍落的那一刻全身都似乎被一股绝望包围。
“说得我像抢劫的似的，”西林掏出电子本在上面写写画画，然后递给那人看：“因为你们的恶行给我造成了严重的损失，所以要补偿，这也是你们应该做的。 喏，详细项目都记录在这里，一个飞滑2000星币，消耗的能量盒500星币，你吃了我三个点心，每个5星币三个就是15星币，但这三个点心是贸易区的，我不可能现在再返回到那边买，所以这三个点心就算30吧，还有精神损失费10000星币，当然，最重要的是这件事也浪费了我的时间，你知道光阴万金难买，所以我吃个亏，算1万星币吧……”西林零零总总说了一些，最后总结：“加起来一共是5万星币，有问题吗？”
那人已经没心思思考了，只顾着摇头和点头。
“好吧，就这样，按个手印。” 西林将电子本往那人手边递过去。
那人颤抖着在电子本上按了个手印。
“卡呢？”
那人又哆哆嗦嗦的将七耀卡掏出来。
“哟，还是橙色的，你几年级的？”
车内那人原本满是惊恐的双眼突然亮起来，仿佛看见救命稻草。
治安队来了一个车队，以往发生类似的事情治安队出一辆车就不错了，今天可谓是着重对待。
杰拉德亲自带队，在来的路上杰拉德车上的监视仪只显示出了三个快速移动的光标，可以看出哪个是飞车哪个是飞滑，因为在七耀，不论是飞滑还是飞车上都有定位信号。 但是，具体发生什么事杰拉德是不清楚的，所以当杰拉德看到监视仪上显示飞滑的光标消失时浑身冰凉，惨了，咋跟莫老爷子交代？
虽然两辆飞车是坠落了，但毕竟车身没毁，定位信号也没消失，所以杰拉德见到的是两辆车的光标出现诡异移动之后便静止，杰拉德催促治安队的众人赶紧过去。 不过真正见到现场的情景时，众治安队队员有些傻眼。
两辆飞车都坠了？
到底发生了什么事？ 现在杰拉德关心的只有西林，霍钉已经将西林的信息传给杰拉德，所以来到现场杰拉德一看到西林就直奔过去。
“道昂斯·西林是吧？ 我是治安队队长杰拉德。”
杰拉德一脸和善的笑容，见到西林没事的时候杰拉德一颗心也放了下来。 西林靠着车身，看了看走过的杰拉德，确信自己不认识这人，但还没等他出口回答就听到依旧坐在车里的那人一声尖叫：“救命！”
杰拉德将奔过来的人扔给后面的队员，他现在没空理会这家伙。
“杰拉德队长您好，我很感谢治安队的各位能够过来伸张正义，不过我们已经达成协议，私了。”
那最好不过了！ 杰拉德心中呐喊，他才不想介入这些大家子弟之间的争斗。 不过想起莫老爷子，杰拉德还是给那个抢包的人记了过，扣除学分绩点。
“杰拉德队长，请问您有没有读卡仪？ 借用一下，我想转账。”
“转账？ 呃，我车上有一台。”
杰拉德将西林领过去，见到西林划卡转账然后很淡定的将卡还给原主人的时候，杰拉德不禁想，也许他们过来真的是多此一举。
以杰拉德的经验，看到现场的情况后自然能够猜想出来当时发生的情况，心里不禁对西林高看许多，之前还是看莫老爷子的面子，但现在是承认西林的能力。
另一辆明黄飞车里的人也被带过来，情况跟赤红色飞车里的人差不多，哆哆嗦嗦的几乎是被治安队的人提过来的。
将主要事情办好之后，杰拉德让人处理现场后续事情，自己和几名队员载着西林三人离开。 不过西林在娱乐不夜城的边缘下了车，他还要继续看看不夜城的情况。
西林下车后，杰拉德旁边的一名治安队队员感叹道：“队长，那小子其实是属金刚的吧？”
飞滑追飞车？ 实在是令人无法想象，而且仅凭一个使用普通能量盒的飞滑干翻两辆飞车，这可不是谁都能做到的，就连杰拉德自己也不敢打包票。
与此同时，一个视屏在七耀内部的网络上传出，“飞滑小子”开始在七耀流传开来。

Chapter 23: Hoverboy
The two people inside the flying cars might be confused as to what just happened, but Huo Neil and Knight saw it crystal clear in front of the screen inside the training division’s office.
The instant the hoverboard exploded, Cillin had leveraged the force of the explosion, zoomed over to the crimson flying car and slapped its rear with his palm. At the same time, he used the energy of the slap to swiftly kick towards the bright yellow car next to it.
In the blink of an eye, one flying car was slapped down to the ground, and the other was kicked into the air.
The reason Huo Neil and Knight were shocked wasn’t because of Cillin slapping or kicking the two cars away. They were shocked by his ability to grasp the perfect timing.
The act of borrowing the hoverboard’s momentum after it exploded was a risky thing. If he was a moment too early, he would not have been able to able to leverage its pushing force; and if he was a moment too late, he would have been hurt by the explosion’s shockwave. At the same time, Cillin was able to accurately home onto the crimson flying car’s body after he flew out, before leveraging the force of his own actions again and kicked the bright yellow flying car away.
Knight pointed at Cillin on the screen who was landing safely on the ground, “How is it possible that such a person is unknown?”
Huo Neil did not answer Knight’s question and exclaimed instead, “He definitely deserves Sir Mo’s protection alright! Still, since when did the Douance have such a person in their family?”
It was obvious that Cillin was a veteran who had fought countless battles. There was no way he could be one of those fresh greenhorns. Moreover, Huo Neil could see that the kid had acted pretty decisively, without a bit of hesitation to be seen in his movements.

I wouldn’t have sent you an invitation card if I knew something would happen. But please don’t worry little brother. No matter what happens today, I will protect you entirely!”\nChu Mo smiled: “I said that I trust you, so I trust you. Because even without your invitation, they would still do what they want. If you really wanted to distance yourself from me, there are several other options. There was no need to do this at your house. Isn’t it unfortunate?”\n“There’s no need to keep up the pretense. Don’t let us act here, then simple, let Chu Mo go. We will take action on the streets. Elder Wang, you are the god of wealth for the Azure Dragon Court. We don’t dare force you to rebel.” The ice-cold voice, filled with ridicule, once again floated through the hall.\nSoon after, another person said: “Do you all understand what elder Wang means? Don’t act here. Wait until the little thing leaves his house, then act in the first moment. Ah, our elder Wang is truly a righteous man. He cannot bear seeing a friend troubled in his own home.”\nSeveral people in the banquet hall couldn’t help but laugh. Clearly these words embodied their thoughts.\nIn their opinion, Wang Dafa was putting on a show!\nHe didn’t want these people to act in his home, and even threatened to leave the Azure Dragon Court……but in reality, who didn’t know among the crowd? Was the Azure Dragon Court that easy to leave?\nWas leaving just leaving? Don’t mention a gold rank elder, even the lowest level black iron member would face matchless pressure from the Azure Dragon Court. They would be pursued until death!\nWang Dafa was seething in anger. He gnashed his teeth and growled: “Don’t believe? Remember, today you’ve forced me! Wait until the court master asks what happened. Tell him the truth if you have the courage! Let me state this clearly! If anything unforeseen happens to Chu Mo in the next three days, then I will immediately sever ties with the Azure Dragon Court! Don’t use that expression to look at me. I know what you’re thinking. You think I’m blowing smoke, I would never dare leave the Azure Dragon Court? Don’t forget that this world is called the four continents! It’s not called the Azure Dragon continent! I may not have any combat ability, but this world isn’t lacking in powerful experts! But……there is a lack of powerful businessmen.”\nAll of the people shivered in fear. They weren’t fools. They naturally understood what Wang Dafa meant.\nNormally speaking, Azure Dragon Court Members would never dare leave.\nBut who is Wang Dafa? He isn’t merely a gold rank elder, but he is also a rare talented businessman!\nHe didn’t rely on the Azure Dragon Court to achieve his current success. He was originally very accomplished, and then he entered the Azure Dragon Court.\nThat was to say, the Azure Dragon Court depended on Wang Dafa much more than he depended on the Azure Dragon Court!\nThere were no immortals on the four continents. Everyone needed food, clothes, and shelter. Which one of the powerful cultivators on high was concerned on a daily basis? But which one……could do without?\nWang Dafa’s importance to the Azure Dragon Court was self-evident!\nWang Dafa’s words were extremely clear. This world is called the four continents, not the Azure Dragon Continent!\nIn addition to the Azure Dragon Court, there was the Vermilion Bird Association, the White Tiger Temple, and the Black Tortoise Palace!\nAs for a talent like Wang Dafa, someone worth millions and millions, which power wouldn’t fight over him?\nIgnore the mocking and despising glances from Fu Long. If Wang Dafa wanted to enter Immortal Sky, he wouldn’t have any qualifications to resist. Even the Immortal Sky master would personally make a visit!

事先我的确知道可能会发生什么。
我不应该给你投递这份请帖的。 不过请贤弟放心，今天无论如何，老哥我也要护得你周全！” 楚墨笑了笑：“我说相信你，就是相信你。
因为就算没有你这份请帖，他们该怎么做，还是会怎么做。 老哥若是真想对付我，有很多种办法可以撇清自己。 何必把地方放在自己家里。
简单啊，你放楚墨出去，我们在大街上动手就好了啊。 您王长老是青龙堂的财神爷，我们可不敢担逼您反叛的责任。” 那道冰冷飘忽的声音，在大厅中再次响起，尽极嘲讽之能事。
别在这动手，等着这小东西出了王家大门那一刻，立即动手。 哎，我们的王长老是个义薄云天的真汉子，不忍在自己家看朋友落难。”
宴会大厅中的很多人忍不住发出低声的嗤笑，显然这话说中了他们的心思。
在他们看来，王大发就是在惺惺作态，就是在演戏！
不让这些人在自己家动手，甚至不惜以退出青龙堂来要挟……但实际上，在场众人，谁不明白，青龙堂是那么好退的么？
别说黄金长老，就算是一名最底层的黑铁成员，想要退出，也会遭到青龙堂的无情镇压和追杀！
不就是觉得我在吹牛，不敢真的退出青龙堂么？ 你们别忘了，这个世界，叫做四象大陆！ 不叫青龙大陆！
他们不是傻子，自然一下子就听明白王大发的意思。 正常来说，青龙堂的人。
肯定是不敢轻易退出的。
可王大发是什么人？ 他不但是一名黄金级的长老，而且还是一名相当罕见的天才商人！
他可不是靠着青龙堂的势力，才做到今天的成就的。 他是原本就有很大的成就，然后加入的青龙堂。
也就是说。 青龙堂对王大发的依赖，远比王大发对青龙堂的依赖要强烈得多！
四象大陆没有仙，衣食住行吃喝拉撒这些事情，平日里高高在上的强者们哪里会去关心？ 但又有哪个……能离得开？
王大发对整个青龙堂的重要性。
王大发刚刚这番话，说得很明白。 这世界，叫四象大陆。
除了你青龙堂，还有朱雀会，还有白虎殿和玄武宫！
像王大发这种人才，这种家财亿万的大商人，哪个势力不是争着抢着想要？
别看福龙在这里对王大发冷嘲热讽一脸藐视。 可若是王大发想要进入长生天，他根本没有任何资格阻拦，就连长生天的掌门，都会亲自接见！ 而且态度绝对要比福龙这种好上无数倍！
到时候王大发在长生天的地位，绝不会比他福龙差上分毫！
这就是王大发的价值！
所以王大发敢这样跟这群人叫板，因为他若是想要鱼死网破，就根本不会在乎任何威胁。
福龙等人看着王大发，目光不善。 王大发同样眸光冷漠，与这些人对视。
一身铁胆，未必只有强者才有。
王大发的心中，对青龙堂已是相当的失望。 没想到自己为之效力多年的地方，竟然就是这样看待他的。
他王大发虽然不算什么君子，但却是个商人！ 在商人的眼里，这世上的任何东西，都是有价格的！ 都是可以谈的！
他相信，只要出到足以让楚墨动心的价钱，那么，这件事未必就没有操作的余地。
更何况，还有一个更简单的办法。 那就是，派些身家清白天赋又好的孩子，去飘渺宫皇家学院学习。
这才是上策！
王大发跟楚墨之间，并非有多深的交情。 但他依然坚持，不管什么事情，只要有更好的解决方法，就不要去用最差的那一种。
跟楚墨翻脸决裂，在王大发看来，就是最差的那种。
可青龙堂上下几乎所有人，偏偏的……就选择了最差的这条路。
王大发带着楚墨，从宴会大厅走出来，送楚墨到大门口，然后一脸歉意的道：“贤弟，老哥能帮你的，也就只有这么多了。 三天，有多远就跑多远吧！
这些人肆无忌惮，就算皇家出面，也不顶用的！” 楚墨笑了笑，看着王大发说道：“这次老哥虽然被逼无奈，给我下了请帖。 但我并不怪你！
说着，楚墨认真的看着王大发说道：“不过，老弟到是有个不情之请，不知道老哥是否有兴趣。”
“哦？ 你说，只要我能做得到！” 王大发的脸色，也变得认真起来。
楚墨笑着摇摇头：“这件事，或许会发生，或许不会。 我也就那么一说，老哥随便听听就是。”
王大发看着楚墨。
楚墨说道：“假如有一天青龙堂灭亡了，我希望，老哥能来帮我。”
楚墨笑着点点头：“那老哥就当我痴人说梦好了。”
说着，楚墨冲着王大发摆摆手，一脸轻松的告辞离去。
王大发看着楚墨的背影，微微沉默了一下，突然说道：“如果……真有那么一天，那，我答应！”
楚墨没有回头，只是抬起右手，竖起一根大拇指。

Chapter 146: Challenge Chapter 146: Challenge
Wang Dafa looked ashamed: “Worthy Little brother, please forgive me. I wouldn’t have sent you an invitation card if I knew something would happen. But please don’t worry little brother. No matter what happens today, I will protect you entirely!”
Chu Mo smiled: “I said that I trust you, so I trust you. Because even without your invitation, they would still do what they want. If you really wanted to distance yourself from me, there are several other options. There was no need to do this at your house. Isn’t it unfortunate?”
“There’s no need to keep up the pretense. Don’t let us act here, then simple, let Chu Mo go. We will take action on the streets. Elder Wang, you are the god of wealth for the Azure Dragon Court. We don’t dare force you to rebel.” The ice-cold voice, filled with ridicule, once again floated through the hall.
Soon after, another person said: “Do you all understand what elder Wang means? Don’t act here. Wait until the little thing leaves his house, then act in the first moment. Ah, our elder Wang is truly a righteous man. He cannot bear seeing a friend troubled in his own home.”
Several people in the banquet hall couldn’t help but laugh. Clearly these words embodied their thoughts.
In their opinion, Wang Dafa was putting on a show!
He didn’t want these people to act in his home, and even threatened to leave the Azure Dragon Court……but in reality, who didn’t know among the crowd? Was the Azure Dragon Court that easy to leave?
Was leaving just leaving? Don’t mention a gold rank elder, even the lowest level black iron member would face matchless pressure from the Azure Dragon Court. They would be pursued until death!
Wang Dafa was seething in anger. He gnashed his teeth and growled: “Don’t believe? Remember, today you’ve forced me! Wait until the court master asks what happened. Tell him the truth if you have the courage! Let me state this clearly! If anything unforeseen happens to Chu Mo in the next three days, then I will immediately sever ties with the Azure Dragon Court! Don’t use that expression to look at me. I know what you’re thinking. You think I’m blowing smoke, I would never dare leave the Azure Dragon Court? Don’t forget that this world is called the four continents! It’s not called the Azure Dragon continent! I may not have any combat ability, but this world isn’t lacking in powerful experts! But……there is a lack of powerful businessmen.”
All of the people shivered in fear. They weren’t fools. They naturally understood what Wang Dafa meant.
Normally speaking, Azure Dragon Court Members would never dare leave.
But who is Wang Dafa? He isn’t merely a gold rank elder, but he is also a rare talented businessman!
He didn’t rely on the Azure Dragon Court to achieve his current success. He was originally very accomplished, and then he entered the Azure Dragon Court.
That was to say, the Azure Dragon Court depended on Wang Dafa much more than he depended on the Azure Dragon Court!
There were no immortals on the four continents. Everyone needed food, clothes, and shelter. Which one of the powerful cultivators on high was concerned on a daily basis? But which one……could do without?
Wang Dafa’s importance to the Azure Dragon Court was self-evident!
Wang Dafa’s words were extremely clear. This world is called the four continents, not the Azure Dragon Continent!
In addition to the Azure Dragon Court, there was the Vermilion Bird Association, the White Tiger Temple, and the Black Tortoise Palace!
As for a talent like Wang Dafa, someone worth millions and millions, which power wouldn’t fight over him?
Ignore the mocking and despising glances from Fu Long. If Wang Dafa wanted to enter Immortal Sky, he wouldn’t have any qualifications to resist. Even the Immortal Sky master would personally make a visit! And his attitude would be countless times better than Fu Long’s!
At that time, the position of Wang Dafa would be no less than Fu Long’s at the Immortal Sky!
This was the value of Wang Dafa!
Therefore, Wang Dafa dared challenge this group. Because either the fish dies or the net splits, he didn’t care about any threat.
Fu Long and the others looked ill-intentioned at Wang Dafa. Wang’s vision was equally cold, and he stared right back at the group.
Cultivators weren’t the only ones with nerves of steel.
Wang Dafa already lost hope for the Azure Dragon Court. He never thought the place that he helped for so many years would actually look at him this way.
But the old saying goes, ‘nobles love wealth, they only need a reason to take.’ Wang Dafa was no noble himself, but he was a businessman! Everything in the world has value in the eyes of a businessman! Anything can be discussed!
He believed, so long as he offered a price that could tempt Chu Mo, then, there may be some room to maneuver.
Even more so, there was an even simpler way. That was, send some gifted children of the family to study at the Misty Palace Royal Academy. This wouldn’t even take twenty years to accomplish. Except for a few core pieces of the Misty Palace heritage, all the rest could be obtained without staining a single blade with blood.
This was the best way!
Wang Dafa and Chu Mo didn’t really have a deep relationship. But he had a policy. No matter what, so long as there is a better way, don’t use the worst solution.
Becoming hostile with Chu Mo was the worst solution in Wang Dafa’s opinion.
But everyone in the Azure Dragon Court……they all chose the worst path.
Wang Dafa led Chu Mo outside of the banquet hall, all the way until Chu Mo arrived at the gate. He apologetically spoke: “Worthy little brother. I can only help you this much. Three days, the farther you run the better! You absolutely must not stay in Yellow Flame City. They are reckless without fear. Even if the royal family appears, it will be of no use!”
Chu Mo laughed, then said to Wang Da Fa: “Older brother had no choice this time, and had to give me an invitation. But I don’t blame you! Let these people come.”
Chu Mo seriously looked at Wang Dafa: “However, I do have a favor to ask. I don’t know if you would be interested.”
“Eh? Speak, I will do it if I can!” Wang Dafa’s expression also became serious.
Chu Mo smiled and shook his head: “Perhaps it will happen, perhaps it won’t. I will say it, please just listen older brother.”
“Yes, speak!” Wang Dafa looked at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo said: “If the Azure Dragon Court can be destroyed someday, I hope older brother will help me.”
Chu Mo chuckled: “Older brother thinks I’m joking.”
Chu Mo nodded with a smile: “Then take me for a fool with a dream little brother.” Chu Mo faced Wang Dafa and waved as he spoke. He then departed with a relaxed expression.
Wang Dafa watched Chu Mo as he departed, and he became silent a moment. He suddenly said: “If……there really is a day, then I promise!”
Chu Mo didn’t turn his head back. He merely raised his right hand, and he lifted up a thumb.

"value": "A strange, jade card, emanating the colors of a rainbow — sat in Jiang Fei’s hand!\nUse: Points you toward the Battle God’s Palace, claiming the Battle God’s Legacy!\nClass Limitation: Warrior, Rider.\nLocked after use!\n“The heck is that?” asked Zhao Feng.\n“Class transition item!”\nJiang Fei’s eyes were also filled with a look of disbelief.\n“And the heck would that be?”\nZhao Feng was still unable to get it.\n“In simpler terms, that’s a passcard for a hidden class!” explained Jiang Fei.\nBy then, Seven Stars Warrior’s eyes had frozen up in a permanently dilated state. When Little Rain had obtained the Seal Curse Spell, he was already green in envy! He could not believe that, in the blink of an eye, luck was now on his side! A hidden class transition item! This was almost as great as the Seal Curse Spell! Hidden classes overpowered regular classes’ progression of the same field. It turned regular classes into his playthings. Naturally, it would also be incredibly difficult to obtain. It was also not something that could be achieved with hard work — like the rare classes.\nHowever, the opportunity was now right before his eyes. Seven Stars Warrior could easily grasp for it!\n“Here, take it!”\nJiang Fei laughed lightly before flinging it over to Seven Stars Warrior. He was alright with giving away a Seal Curse Spell, let alone a class transition item. In Jiang Fei’s eyes, they had fought against the boss as a team. It was only natural to split the rewards up based on each of their needs. He was not one to allow greed to blind him.\n“Thank you so much!”\nSeven Stars Warrior looked at Jiang Fei thankfully. Although he was the only person who could use the item, and it was rightfully his to have, many team leaders would pull rank for their advantage when something this valuable appeared. That was especially the case when such priceless treasures surfaced. Such a man was a one-of-a-kind!\n“What a Boss. What a Lord. Everything it drops is gold! Brother Fei, is there anything else?” Zhao Feng asked eagerly. After all, everyone else had already acquired a reward, except for himself. Although the transport portal Jiang Fei had acquired was rather useless, it was still a worthy memorabilia. Zhao Feng, on the other hand, had yet to acquire anything to call his own!\n“Yeah! There still are!”\nJiang Fei nodded as he retrieved yet another item.\nSpirit: +10 Equip: You will acquire the passive skill of the Blood Halo. All friendly targets within a 40-meter radius will recover 1% of their Health Points every second!\n“Fatty, it’s yours!”\nJiang Fei tossed the decorative item to Zhao Feng. Although any equipment with a light halo was worth a lot of money, it paled in comparison to the Seal Curse Spell and class transition card.\n“Sigh!”\nZhao Feng accepted the decorative item with a sigh. He was clearly disappointed.\n“Come now, be happy. This really complements your support class! Since you cannot heal as a Fengshui Master, this decorative item can make up for it and turn you into a complete masterpiece!”\nJiang Fei laughed as he consoled Zhao Feng.\n“Forget it! I’m just unlucky. So be it!”\nZhao Feng nodded. He knew that the spell book and the class transition items did not come easy. Having this two in the presence of each other from the same boss was already a huge blessing. It would be a dream come true, if everyone could get something of similar quality!\n“Alright, there is one final item!” said Jiang Fei as he retrieved an item. Five items from a boss was most definitely very unusual. Coupled with Jiang Fei’s great Luck, the highest ranking items on Blood God Veigar’s drop table had all been forced out into the open! Veigar’s Blood (God’s Blood, Quality: Epic)\nEffects: Unknown.\nRemarks: Although this was only Veigar’s clone, every part of his body came from Blood God Veigar’s original body. You can feel the destructive power in this drop of divine Blood.\n“Brother Fei, is that another toy?” asked Zhao Feng.\n“No idea, but it must be worth something!” guessed Jiang Fei as he shook his head.\n“Yeah! Brother Fei, you should take it!”\nLittle Rain nodded his head. They were slightly embarrassed. After all, this success was all thanks to their chance meeting with Zhao Feng. The main contributors had been Jiang Fei and Zhao Feng. Any other two attackers would have made the cut. It was with the power of a tank like Jiang Fei, and Zhao Feng’s Blood Conversion Formation that victory was earned!\nAt the end of the day, it was these two main contributors who had walked away with the poorest of rewards. Zhao Feng was alright. He had walked away with something that still could not be compared to their loot, but it was nevertheless, a high-level Epic quality decorative item. However, Jiang Fei had contributed the most, but he had only obtained a useless transport portal.\nTherefore, both Little Rain and Seven Stars Warrior felt that they should compensate Jiang Fei. However, they were both equally poor, and had nothing to offer and edge up Jiang Fei’s wealth. Therefore, they could only express gratitude in their hearts. There was no way they would deny him the final glory of the battle.\n“Yeah! Brother Fei, you should take it. You have a big backpack!” said Zhao Feng with a laugh.\n“Get lost. Are you only going to give me the useless trash?” yelled Jiang Fei with a laugh. He stowed Veigar’s Blood away. Jiang Fei knew what his three teammates were thinking. They all felt that he had contributed the most and yet received the least, which was why they wanted to compensate him.\nJiang Fei did not really mind it. He had initially come to assist Zhao Feng and was not too hung up on the rewards. Although he truly wanted the Seal Curse Spell and the class transition card, some teammates present could actually use the items. He could only blame his bad luck for not getting something he could use!\nNot a single person thought that Jiang Fei had already been adequately rewarded, including Jiang Fei himself. However, in the near future, Jiang Fei would come to understand that he had benefited the most from killing Veigar’s clone! “Brother Fei, we are off to complete the quest!”\nZhao Feng urgently wanted to complete the quest to see if there is any continuity to it. Seven Stars Warrior was just as eager to make his class transition. “Alright!”\nJiang Fei nodded.\nZhao Feng and Seven Stars Warrior had both left. Only he and Little Rain remained.\n“Brother Fei, Fatty said that you created your own guild?” asked Little Rain.\n“Yeah! It is a small guild!”\nJiang Fei did not try to hide anything.\n“Could I join your guild?” asked Little Rain.\n“Hehe, why would you want to join my little guild? You are a Magician with a Seal Curse Spell. All of the guilds would be wrestling over a talent like you!” asked Jiang Fei.\n“I know very well who gave me this ‘talent!’ I am not going to turn my back on my benefactor!” Little Rain said earnestly as he resolutely looked into Jiang Fei’s eyes. The moment Jiang Fei had tossed the Seal Curse Spell skill book to him, Little Rain had made the decision. He had nothing to gain and everything to lose from doing so. But now, those very skills could serve him!\nJiang Fei could sense Little Rain’s searing gaze. He knew that Little Rain truly meant it when he said that they would accomplish great things together."

随着七彩的光芒，蒋飞手中出现了一枚奇怪的玉质令牌！
使用：指引你前往战神殿接受战神的传承！
职业限制：战士，骑士。
使用后绑定！
“这是什么东西？” 赵峰问道。
“转职道具！”
蒋飞的眼中也满是难以置信的神色！
“什么意思？”
赵峰还是不太明白。
“说白了就是获得隐藏职业的通行证！” 蒋飞解释道。
这可是不次于禁咒魔法技能书的好东西啊！ 隐藏职业可是全方位碾压同系别其他普通职业的进阶职业，拥有远超常规职业的战斗力，但是获取的难度也超高，而且还不和稀有职业一样可以凭借努力来达成，隐藏职业除了转职任务艰难之外，最大的障碍就是寻找职业导师，这绝对是完全看脸的事情，从蒋飞这个例子就能看出，这些隐藏职业导师根本不在一个地方久留，有钱都买不到消息！
不过现在好了，机会已经摆在了眼前，就看七星战殇能不能抓得住了！
“给！”
蒋飞微微一笑，一抬手就把战神令扔给了七星战殇，禁咒技能书他都能分出去，更别说是一件转职道具了，在蒋飞眼里，Boss是大家一起打的，按需分配是很正常的事情，他绝不会因为物品的价值太高，而起了贪没之心！
“多谢！”
七星战殇感激的看了一眼蒋飞，虽然队伍里只有他一个人能使用这件物品，他拿这件转职道具可以说是理所当然，但是游戏里因为出了好东西而黑装备的队长可不在少数，尤其是面对这种价值连城的宝贝时，能够不动歪心，这种人绝对不多见！
飞哥，还有么？” 赵峰满心期盼的问道，毕竟现在除了他之外所有人都拿到战利品了，虽然说蒋飞拿得那个传送门有点坑爹，但多少也是个纪念品啊，现在就自己什么都没拿到了！ “嗯！
还有！”
蒋飞点了点头，然后又取出了一件物品！
装备：使你获得被动技能——血液之力光环，使你和距离你四十米之内的友方目标每秒恢复自身百分之一的生命值！
“胖子，给你了！”
蒋飞直接把这件饰品丢给了赵峰，虽然带有光环技能的装备都是非常有价值的极品，但是因为有前面的禁咒技能书和转职令牌存在，这件极品饰品就显得有些黯淡无光了。
“唉！”
赵峰接过饰品叹了口气，显然有些失望。
正好你这个风水师不会加血，这个饰品可以弥补你的不足，让你成为更全面更强力的辅助！”
蒋飞笑着安慰了赵峰两句。
“算了！
人品不行，凑合吧！” 赵峰点了点头，他也知道技能书或者转职令牌之类的东西绝对是可遇而不可求的，一个BOSS能出两个就已经相当逆天了，想要人人都能拿到这个等级的物品根本就是痴人说梦！
蒋飞说着又取出一件东西，一个BOSS掉落了五件物品，这绝对是大爆了，而且因为是首杀领主级BOSS，再加上蒋飞超高的幸运值，所以这一次蒋飞几乎是把血神维迦掉落列表最上面的几件物品都给爆了出来！
作用：未知。
备注：虽然这只是维迦的一个分身，但是他身体的每一个部分都来自血神维迦的本体，你可以从这滴神血中感受到毁灭性的力量！
“飞哥，这玩意儿是干什么的？”
赵峰问道。 “不知道，但是应该是很有价值的东西！” 蒋飞摇了摇头猜测道。
“飞哥，你拿着吧！”
莫小雨也点头道，他们两个此时都有些不好意思，毕竟任务是赵峰牵头的，主要出力的也是蒋飞和赵峰两个人，说实话打这BOSS的输出职业换两个人来也是一样，但是没有蒋飞这个超强的坦克，和赵峰提供的化血阵，那么这个BOSS根本不可能打的过去！
但是出力最多的两个人却拿了最差的战利品，赵峰还好，虽然只是一件史诗级的饰品，但是那饰品也算的上是极品装备，可是蒋飞这个出力最多的人，却只拿到了一件根本没什么用的传送门。
所以莫小雨和七星战殇都觉得有必要补偿蒋飞一下，但是他们俩一穷二白的，跟蒋飞这个移动钱庄根本没法比，所以只能心存感激，对于这最后一件神秘的战利品自然不会再有窥伺之心！
“嗯！ 飞哥，你拿吧，你背包大！” 赵峰也笑道。
蒋飞笑骂了一句，然后收起了维迦之血，这三个队友的心思蒋飞也清楚，无非是人家觉得自己出力最多，所得最少，所以想补偿一下自己罢了。
蒋飞对此倒是并不在意，他本来就是来给赵峰帮忙的，对于有没有收获并不是很在意，虽然对于禁咒技能和转职令牌很眼馋，但是毕竟队伍里有能用这些东西的队友，自己没拿到只能说自己的人品不行，没掉自己能用的东西而已！
此时所有人都觉得蒋飞拿到的战利品是最没价值的，包括蒋飞自己也是这么认为的，只不过在不久的将来，蒋飞就会明白，其实这次击杀维迦的分身，自己才是最大的受益者！
赵峰此时急着交任务，看看任务还有没有后续，七星战殇也有些迫不及待的去转职了。
蒋飞点了点头。
赵峰和七星战殇都走了，原地只剩下了蒋飞和莫小雨。
“飞哥，听胖子说你也建了个公会？”
“嗯！ 小公会！”
蒋飞也没有隐瞒。
“能让我加入么？”
莫小雨很直接的问道。 “呵呵，怎么想起加入我这个小庙啊，你现在可是拥有禁咒法术的超级法师，绝对是所有公会争抢的人才！” 蒋飞问道。
我不是得了好处就忘本的人！” 莫小雨看着蒋飞的双眼真诚的说道，从蒋飞把禁咒技能书抛给他的那一刻开始，莫小雨就做出了这个决定，这一本技能书不可能撕开了分，但是自己学了技能，却一样可以大家一起用！ “好！”
蒋飞从莫小雨的眼神中看到了诚意，知道莫小雨并不是随口说说，而是真的想加入自己的公会，和自己一起闯出一片天！

A strange, jade card, emanating the colors of a rainbow — sat in Jiang Fei’s hand!
Use: Points you toward the Battle God’s Palace, claiming the Battle God’s Legacy!
Class Limitation: Warrior, Rider.
Locked after use!
“The heck is that?” asked Zhao Feng.
“Class transition item!”
Jiang Fei’s eyes were also filled with a look of disbelief.
“And the heck would that be?”
Zhao Feng was still unable to get it.
“In simpler terms, that’s a passcard for a hidden class!” explained Jiang Fei.
By then, Seven Stars Warrior’s eyes had frozen up in a permanently dilated state. When Little Rain had obtained the Seal Curse Spell, he was already green in envy! He could not believe that, in the blink of an eye, luck was now on his side! A hidden class transition item! This was almost as great as the Seal Curse Spell! Hidden classes overpowered regular classes’ progression of the same field. It turned regular classes into his playthings. Naturally, it would also be incredibly difficult to obtain. It was also not something that could be achieved with hard work — like the rare classes.
However, the opportunity was now right before his eyes. Seven Stars Warrior could easily grasp for it!
“Here, take it!”
Jiang Fei laughed lightly before flinging it over to Seven Stars Warrior. He was alright with giving away a Seal Curse Spell, let alone a class transition item. In Jiang Fei’s eyes, they had fought against the boss as a team. It was only natural to split the rewards up based on each of their needs. He was not one to allow greed to blind him.
“Thank you so much!”
Seven Stars Warrior looked at Jiang Fei thankfully. Although he was the only person who could use the item, and it was rightfully his to have, many team leaders would pull rank for their advantage when something this valuable appeared. That was especially the case when such priceless treasures surfaced. Such a man was a one-of-a-kind!
“What a Boss. What a Lord. Everything it drops is gold! Brother Fei, is there anything else?” Zhao Feng asked eagerly. After all, everyone else had already acquired a reward, except for himself. Although the transport portal Jiang Fei had acquired was rather useless, it was still a worthy memorabilia. Zhao Feng, on the other hand, had yet to acquire anything to call his own!
“Yeah! There still are!”
Jiang Fei nodded as he retrieved yet another item.
Spirit: +10 Equip: You will acquire the passive skill of the Blood Halo. All friendly targets within a 40-meter radius will recover 1% of their Health Points every second!
“Fatty, it’s yours!”
Jiang Fei tossed the decorative item to Zhao Feng. Although any equipment with a light halo was worth a lot of money, it paled in comparison to the Seal Curse Spell and class transition card.
“Sigh!”
Zhao Feng accepted the decorative item with a sigh. He was clearly disappointed.
“Come now, be happy. This really complements your support class! Since you cannot heal as a Fengshui Master, this decorative item can make up for it and turn you into a complete masterpiece!”
Jiang Fei laughed as he consoled Zhao Feng.
“Forget it! I’m just unlucky. So be it!”
Zhao Feng nodded. He knew that the spell book and the class transition items did not come easy. Having this two in the presence of each other from the same boss was already a huge blessing. It would be a dream come true, if everyone could get something of similar quality!
“Alright, there is one final item!” said Jiang Fei as he retrieved an item. Five items from a boss was most definitely very unusual. Coupled with Jiang Fei’s great Luck, the highest ranking items on Blood God Veigar’s drop table had all been forced out into the open! Veigar’s Blood (God’s Blood, Quality: Epic)
Effects: Unknown.
Remarks: Although this was only Veigar’s clone, every part of his body came from Blood God Veigar’s original body. You can feel the destructive power in this drop of divine Blood.
“Brother Fei, is that another toy?” asked Zhao Feng.
“No idea, but it must be worth something!” guessed Jiang Fei as he shook his head.
“Yeah! Brother Fei, you should take it!”
Little Rain nodded his head. They were slightly embarrassed. After all, this success was all thanks to their chance meeting with Zhao Feng. The main contributors had been Jiang Fei and Zhao Feng. Any other two attackers would have made the cut. It was with the power of a tank like Jiang Fei, and Zhao Feng’s Blood Conversion Formation that victory was earned!
At the end of the day, it was these two main contributors who had walked away with the poorest of rewards. Zhao Feng was alright. He had walked away with something that still could not be compared to their loot, but it was nevertheless, a high-level Epic quality decorative item. However, Jiang Fei had contributed the most, but he had only obtained a useless transport portal.
Therefore, both Little Rain and Seven Stars Warrior felt that they should compensate Jiang Fei. However, they were both equally poor, and had nothing to offer and edge up Jiang Fei’s wealth. Therefore, they could only express gratitude in their hearts. There was no way they would deny him the final glory of the battle.
“Yeah! Brother Fei, you should take it. You have a big backpack!” said Zhao Feng with a laugh.
“Get lost. Are you only going to give me the useless trash?” yelled Jiang Fei with a laugh. He stowed Veigar’s Blood away. Jiang Fei knew what his three teammates were thinking. They all felt that he had contributed the most and yet received the least, which was why they wanted to compensate him.
Jiang Fei did not really mind it. He had initially come to assist Zhao Feng and was not too hung up on the rewards. Although he truly wanted the Seal Curse Spell and the class transition card, some teammates present could actually use the items. He could only blame his bad luck for not getting something he could use!
Not a single person thought that Jiang Fei had already been adequately rewarded, including Jiang Fei himself. However, in the near future, Jiang Fei would come to understand that he had benefited the most from killing Veigar’s clone! “Brother Fei, we are off to complete the quest!”
Zhao Feng urgently wanted to complete the quest to see if there is any continuity to it. Seven Stars Warrior was just as eager to make his class transition. “Alright!”
Jiang Fei nodded.
Zhao Feng and Seven Stars Warrior had both left. Only he and Little Rain remained.
“Brother Fei, Fatty said that you created your own guild?” asked Little Rain.
“Yeah! It is a small guild!”
Jiang Fei did not try to hide anything.
“Could I join your guild?” asked Little Rain.
“Hehe, why would you want to join my little guild? You are a Magician with a Seal Curse Spell. All of the guilds would be wrestling over a talent like you!” asked Jiang Fei.
“I know very well who gave me this ‘talent!’ I am not going to turn my back on my benefactor!” Little Rain said earnestly as he resolutely looked into Jiang Fei’s eyes. The moment Jiang Fei had tossed the Seal Curse Spell skill book to him, Little Rain had made the decision. He had nothing to gain and everything to lose from doing so. But now, those very skills could serve him!
Jiang Fei could sense Little Rain’s searing gaze. He knew that Little Rain truly meant it when he said that they would accomplish great things together.

"from": "gpt",
"value": "\"... This is your number two vehicle, the Flying Pigeon?\"\nLooking at the freshly forged second vehicle of Wang Lu, Aya suddenly felt her whole body turn weak. She then determined that, no matter what, she would not ride it.\nAccording to Wang Lu, the number two vehicle fully absorbed the lesson on the failure of the first vehicle. It was an enhanced version, with all aspects of its performance superior to its predecessor, which greatly strengthened the survival capability in the sea of clouds. However, in Aya's eyes, its two bridges were crooked, its two wheels were not round, and the chain was a tattered and loose waste.\nIt was not so much a flying pigeon as a weak chicken.\n\"Have… you just been affected by a stimulant?\" Aya had to ask with heartfelt emotion.\nWang Lu sighed. \"The pain of a genius often comes from the general prejudice. Aya, I have eaten your soft food for many years in the Spirit Sword Mountain cafeteria and thought that a person that can make such dark food certainly has a temperament of an artist. I never thought that you're actually this vulgar.\"\nThen, when Aya's anger had been accumulated to a certain extent, Wang Lu explained, \"Although this vehicle is not good looking, I have a special driving skill.\"\nAya very suspiciously asked, \"Special driving skill?\"\nWang Lu nodded, took out a rope and tied it to the bridge of the vehicle. And because it was crooked, the rope was stuck in the notch, which made the tie exceptionally strong.\n\"Humph, humph, with this, I don't have to worry the vehicle would collapse under the force of gravity.\"\nWang Lu shook his head. \"You again with your prejudice. This is my special driving skill, it's called the old man pulling the cart.\"\n\"... Go, I don't care about you anymore.\"\nThereupon, Wang Lu, carrying the beloved Flying Pigeon, once again went into the sea of clouds. And this time, his purpose was clear: go as deep as possible, to see his limit on this routine.\nWang Lu never expected the 'old man pulling the cart' way would allow him to walk all the way to the Beautiful Unique Pool Peak. However, his professional adventurer's strong intuition told him that he best not to cling to the castle since it would be a suicide. Therefore, he would rather brave the risk, alone wander in the sea of clouds, to search for a shortcut.\nIn fact, he actually already had a vague idea in his mind.\nAn idea that was very simple, straightforward, but overlooked by many people.\nA long time ago, in time immemorial, powerful people left behind a gloomy castle within the sea of clouds as a platform and resources depot to build armored vehicle. Although it wasn't clear why they heavily emphasized the vehicle, in short… after they have finished exploring the sea of clouds, was there any possibility that they left it here? Similarly, more than ten thousand years ago, Golden King built a powerful vehicle in the castle, which brought him all the way to Beautiful Unique Pool Peak. But after that, what happened to the vehicle? Was it taken away by him as a souvenir, or…?\nThese questions didn't have any definite answer, but it didn't prevent Wang Lu to give it a try. In any case, there was not that much to lose. According to Wang Lu's speculation, there should be no one as daring as him in the team of Holy Light Religion. It was likely that they would take a few days to build a low-level vehicle and then break through the obstacles to look for them for trouble.\nAnd these few days were the last buffer. In this period, he must find the shortcut of this pass. Otherwise, if the other team caught up with them, they would basically die.\nAlthough he didn't know why there was a limit to the individual strength, but there was an upper limit in strength, which was intermediate high order profession, and its Nine Regions equivalence. Wang Lu examined his own strength and asked himself what would happen if he had to fight against a Yuanying Stage opponent… If he gave it all, he would only last about two or three exchanges. Moreover, it could not be a Peak Yuanying Stage, or abnormal Yuanying Stage, it was mostly of those Tiger King of Beast Master School type. If he had to face the enemy on the level of his elders at Heavenly Sword Hall, no matter how confident Wang Lu was, he didn't think that his ten years of cultivation could keep up with them.\nAnd this time, his opponents were Holy Ones, the legendary level Holy Ones.\nThe legendary level of Western Continent could roughly be equated to Unity Stage Cultivators of Nine Regions. Of course, that equation was just a bare minimum, because today's legendary level was not as good as the ones in the past. In the past, when Aya was in her peak, she actually didn't fully enter the threshold of the legendary level, yet, in her view, among the so-called Holy Light Religion's legendary level characters, except for the pope, she dared to fight any one of them. If it were the Administrator of the King's Treasure House, Aya could even take five at once.\n\"Hum?\"\nTaking the old road, Wang Lu soon again felt the oppression of gravity. However, this time the vehicle was carried on his back, so it didn't bear the combined weight of him and the vehicle itself, therefore, it was still able to hold on.\nAs Wang Lu continued to journey deep along the canyon, the force of gravity became even more oppressive. With almost every step, the pressure increased. However, as the gravity increased, Wang Lu became more and more aware that the thing was near.\nIn the end, he stopped on a deserted plain. Here, the gravity was thousands of times normal. Wang Lu felt as if he was carrying four or five heavy armored vehicles. Despite his near Jindan Stage physical strength, Wang Lu couldn't help but began to feel strenuous—Non-Phase Method was not well known for vigorous power, its pure power was limited. However, he had enough power to come here, where the source of that huge gravity was below his feet. There was something buried here that formed the peculiar gravitational environment of this valley.\nThe next step was to dig three feet deep here. Needless to say, since it could withstand the thousand-fold pressure, the ground was very firm. However, Wang Lu used his Sword of Mount Kun to dig the ground, treating it like a hoe. In just a little bit of digging, this upgraded spiritual treasure lived up to its expectation. With its sharpness, it cut the iron-like ground like mud, and its power even shook the earth—each time it pierced the ground, the whole valley trembled slightly.\nThe fly in the ointment to this was that, the sword spirit Autumn Beam was extremely discontented with this kind of wasteful-use-of-the-tool behavior. In her more than one thousand years of experience, following more than ten masters, not one of them had ever treated her more lightly than this, treating the dignified Sword of Mount Kun as a shovel. Therefore, during the excavation process, Autumn Beam didn't say a word, and she even refused to go out to meet Wang Lu.\nFor this kind of disregarding-the-authority-of-the-master acts, while digging, Wang Lu earnestly educated her, \"Little Autumn, although you are a sword spirit of a spiritual treasure, could independently upgrade yourself, have a promising future, and your value is extraordinary, however, you absolutely can't look down on simple manual labor. You should know that there is a really big wisdom in this kind of low-level work. Which of our basic necessities in life that do not need labor? Your superior attitude will definitely limit your development. Of course, I won't blame you. Most of the spirits of the spiritual treasure like you are proud and arrogant. What a pity, it's also because of this that you can't go further into the realm of immortal treasure. Do you know what I think? I think it is necessary for a high-level magical weapon spirit to go down to accept the re-education at the bottom level!\"\nWang Lu's earnestness did not get even the slightest response. After calling her out for a few times, to no avail, Wang Lu couldn't help but feel like he has been blacklisted...\nFortunately, when the excavation process has almost finished, Autumn Beam finally could not resist coming out. Not far away from Wang Lu's feet, there was a majestic energy fluctuation, which produced nearly ten thousand times of gravity, making it very hard for Wang Lu to stay standing and forcing him to slowly burn his innate vitality. Sensing this wave of fluctuation, Autumn Beam finally couldn't help but become curious.\n\"What is this?\"\n\"This is strange to me too.\" Wang Lu was barely able to open his mouth. \"I really can't think of what are the uses for this vehicle to have this powerful suction force. Is it to alleviate the driver's fatigue or just a fun toy design?\"\nAutumn Beam frowned. \"Do you really think I can't understand it, therefore you explained it to me?\"\nWang Lu was surprised. \"Do you understand it?\"\nAutumn Beam coldly said, \"Do you think I'm just a simple fool like Liu Li?\"\nGiven the longevity of Autumn Beam, it was unrealistic to expect her to be as pure as Liu Li.\n\"Since you are well-informed, do you have any opinion on this?\"\nAutumn Beam said, \"Not necessarily, but this attraction feels like it instinctively calls out for something. Unfortunately, the thing inside doesn't have any concept that can be described as spirit, otherwise, I might be able to communicate with it to investigate it.\"\nIn this treacherous land within the sea of clouds, perhaps even a spirit couldn't hold out for so many years. However, as a sword spirit, Autumn Beam's understanding of things was far superior than that of ordinary people. Coupled with her steady temperament and serious words, she was probably not wrong in judging that this gravity was a calling. \"A calling, could it be…\"\nWhile thinking, he invited Autumn Beam to work with him, digging the last layer of soil. Although this last layer of soil was not thick, it has been pressured by ten thousand times of gravity for thousands of years, making it almost indestructible. Autumn Beam had to use the original power source of the spiritual treasure, which directly shook the ground as well as the soil, which revealed the thing that was underneath it.\nIt was a pitch black object, but upon closer look, was actually a sphere."

“……这就是你的二号战车,飞鸽号？”
看着王陆新鲜出炉的二号战车,阿娅只觉得浑身无力,然后下定决心无论如何也不会乘上去。
按照王陆的话说,二号战车是他充分吸取了一号战车失败教训的!基础上,进行的强化改装版,各方面姓能都有了质的飞越,在云海中的生存能力显著加强。 然而落在阿娅眼中的,却是一辆连横梁都是歪七扭八,两个车轮并不浑圆,链条松松垮垮的破烂货。
与其说是飞鸽,不如说是弱鸡,大致就是这么一辆车。
“你……刚才是受了什么刺激么？” 阿娅不得不由衷地感慨问道。
王陆叹了口气：“天才的痛苦往往来自世俗的偏见,阿娅,我在灵剑山食堂吃了你这么多年的软饭,一直以为能做出暗黑料理的人一定具有行为艺术家的气质,想不到你也是如此的俗不可耐。”
而后,在阿娅怒气积累到一定程度以前,王陆解释道：“别看这战车其貌不扬,但我有特别的驾驶技巧。”
阿娅非常怀疑地问道：“特别的驾驶技巧？”
王陆点点头,然后取出一根坚韧的绳索,捆在了战车的横梁上,因为歪七扭八的缘故,绳索恰好卡在一个凹槽里,捆得格外结实。
“哼哼,这样就不用担心百倍重力下战车崩溃的问题了。”
王陆摇摇头：“你这又是世俗的偏见,我这只是一种特殊的驾驶方法罢了,叫做老汉拉车。”
“……你去,我不管你了。”
王陆于是背着心爱的飞鸽自行战车,再一次深入云海。 而这一次,他的目的非常明确：尽可能地深入,突破,看看自己这个套路的极限在哪里。
王陆并不觉得老汉拉车能保佑他一路拉到佳佳泽特,但身为专业冒险者的强烈直觉,却告诉他最好不要固守在古堡之中,那是自寻死路,所以他宁肯冒着风险,单枪匹马闯荡云海,也要找出一条捷径出来。
事实上,他脑中的确隐约有着一个想法。
一个说穿了非常简单,直截了当,但却被很多人忽视掉的想法。
很久很久以前的太古大能们,在云海的边缘留下了一座阴森的古堡,作为打造战车的平台和仓库,虽然不明白为什么要如此执着于战车,但是总而言之……他们在结束了对云海的探索后,有没有可能在此地留下什么？ 同样的,几万年前,黄金王在古堡中造出了强大的战车,一路碾压抵达佳佳泽特,那么,那辆战车后来怎么样了？
这些问题并没有确定的答案,但不妨碍王陆去猜去试,反正也没有多大的损失。 按照王陆的猜测,圣光教那边应该不至于像自己这么光棍,至少也要花几天时间来造低级战车,之后才会突破阻碍,找自己的麻烦。
而这几天时间,就是留给自己的最后缓冲,务必要在此期间找到通关的捷径,不然被对方追上了,基本就是死路一条。
而且还不能是元婴巅峰或者变态元婴,最多类似于驭兽宗的虎王之流。 在基准线上没有加值才行。 换成天剑堂的那些老家伙们,王陆再怎么自信,也不觉得自己修行十年就能跟他们并驾齐驱。
而这一次的对手,是圣者,传奇级别的圣者。
西夷大陆的传奇,勉强可以等同于九州的合体修士,当然这个等号画得真是非常勉强,因为如今的西夷传奇,含金量已经远不如当年。 阿娅巅峰时期也没有完全跨入传奇门槛,但是以她看来,如今圣光教的所谓传奇,除了教皇以外,任何一个她都敢打。 如果是宝库管理员那个级数的传奇,她甚至一个可以打五个。
“嗯？”
随着重新走上旧路,王陆很快就再次感受到了百倍重力的压迫,不过这一次战车被背负在背上,没有承受人车合一的重压,所以还坚持得住。
随着王陆不断深入峡谷,重力的压迫也越来越强,几乎每走一步压力都要加上一倍,但随着重力增强,王陆也越发清晰地感觉到,自己要找的东西已经近了。
最终,他在一片荒芜的平原上停下脚步,走到这里,大地的引力已经数千倍于正常时候,王陆相当于扛着四五辆五对负重轮的战车,饶是以他接近金丹级的身体素质也开始感到吃力——无相功并不以势大力沉著称,单纯的力量是有限的。 不过走到这里也就够了,大地引力的核心就在脚下。
有什么东西埋在这里,形成了这条山谷奇特的重力环境。 接下来就是挖地三尺,能承受千倍重压的地面,坚固自不必说,不过王陆将坤山剑当做锄头,一点点挖土,这升级过的灵宝也不负所望,既有削铁如泥的锋利,更有震撼大地的神威,一剑下去,整个山谷都会微微颤抖。
美中不足,就是剑灵梁秋对这种暴殄天物的行径非常不满,这位经历过一千多年风霜的剑灵,曾经追随过十多位主人,有强有弱,却没有一人如此轻待于她,把堂堂坤山剑当成洛阳铲。 所以挖掘过程中梁秋都是一言不发,将小脸一板,甚至都不肯现身相见。
对于这种无视主人权威的行为,王陆一边辛苦挖掘一边语重心长地教育：“小梁啊,虽然你是灵宝的剑灵,而且还是自主升级过的,曰后前途无量,价值非比寻常。
但是绝对不能因此就看不起简单的体力劳动,要知道这种底层劳动之中才蕴藏着真正的大智慧,我们衣食住行哪一样不用劳动的？
好在当挖掘进行到最后的时候,梁秋终于忍不住现身了,因为就在王陆脚下不远的地方,磅礴的能量波动已经掩盖不住,近万倍的重压,让王陆连站立都难以维持,已经开始缓缓燃烧起了先天元气。
“这是什么？”
“我也奇怪。” 王陆勉强开口,“实在想不出战车上还有什么东西能用到这种强大吸力,难道是为了缓解驾驶员的疲劳而设计的情趣玩具么？ 这……真是吊炸天的玩具啊。”
梁秋皱了皱眉：“你是以为我听不懂所以才说的么？”
王陆一惊：“你听懂了？”
梁秋冷冷道：“你以为我跟琉璃仙一样单纯好糊弄？”
考虑到梁秋千年寿命,指望她纯洁地如小白花一般的确不怎么现实。
“既然你见多识广,对此有没有什么看法？”
梁秋说道：“说不准,但这股吸引力,像是在本能地呼唤什么东西。 可惜里面的东西并没有任何可谓之灵的概念,否则我或许还能与之交流一下,探查一下究竟。”
在云海这片诡谲之地中,就算有灵,恐怕也撑不住这么多年,不过梁秋作为剑灵,对物的理解远胜一般人,而且她姓情稳重,言不轻发,她判断这股引力是一种呼唤,多半不会有错。
王陆一边想着,一边拜托梁秋与他一道努力,将最后一层土壤挖开,这最后一层土壤虽然不厚,却是被万倍重压挤压了万年之久,简直坚不可摧。 是梁秋动用了灵宝的本源力量,直接撼动大地才将土壤震裂,露出下面的真容。
一团幽深的漆黑,细看去,却是个圆球。

"... This is your number two vehicle, the Flying Pigeon?"
Looking at the freshly forged second vehicle of Wang Lu, Aya suddenly felt her whole body turn weak. She then determined that, no matter what, she would not ride it.
According to Wang Lu, the number two vehicle fully absorbed the lesson on the failure of the first vehicle. It was an enhanced version, with all aspects of its performance superior to its predecessor, which greatly strengthened the survival capability in the sea of clouds. However, in Aya's eyes, its two bridges were crooked, its two wheels were not round, and the chain was a tattered and loose waste.
It was not so much a flying pigeon as a weak chicken.
"Have… you just been affected by a stimulant?" Aya had to ask with heartfelt emotion.
Wang Lu sighed. "The pain of a genius often comes from the general prejudice. Aya, I have eaten your soft food for many years in the Spirit Sword Mountain cafeteria and thought that a person that can make such dark food certainly has a temperament of an artist. I never thought that you're actually this vulgar."
Then, when Aya's anger had been accumulated to a certain extent, Wang Lu explained, "Although this vehicle is not good looking, I have a special driving skill."
Aya very suspiciously asked, "Special driving skill?"
Wang Lu nodded, took out a rope and tied it to the bridge of the vehicle. And because it was crooked, the rope was stuck in the notch, which made the tie exceptionally strong.
"Humph, humph, with this, I don't have to worry the vehicle would collapse under the force of gravity."
Wang Lu shook his head. "You again with your prejudice. This is my special driving skill, it's called the old man pulling the cart."
"... Go, I don't care about you anymore."
Thereupon, Wang Lu, carrying the beloved Flying Pigeon, once again went into the sea of clouds. And this time, his purpose was clear: go as deep as possible, to see his limit on this routine.
Wang Lu never expected the 'old man pulling the cart' way would allow him to walk all the way to the Beautiful Unique Pool Peak. However, his professional adventurer's strong intuition told him that he best not to cling to the castle since it would be a suicide. Therefore, he would rather brave the risk, alone wander in the sea of clouds, to search for a shortcut.
In fact, he actually already had a vague idea in his mind.
An idea that was very simple, straightforward, but overlooked by many people.
A long time ago, in time immemorial, powerful people left behind a gloomy castle within the sea of clouds as a platform and resources depot to build armored vehicle. Although it wasn't clear why they heavily emphasized the vehicle, in short… after they have finished exploring the sea of clouds, was there any possibility that they left it here? Similarly, more than ten thousand years ago, Golden King built a powerful vehicle in the castle, which brought him all the way to Beautiful Unique Pool Peak. But after that, what happened to the vehicle? Was it taken away by him as a souvenir, or…?
These questions didn't have any definite answer, but it didn't prevent Wang Lu to give it a try. In any case, there was not that much to lose. According to Wang Lu's speculation, there should be no one as daring as him in the team of Holy Light Religion. It was likely that they would take a few days to build a low-level vehicle and then break through the obstacles to look for them for trouble.
And these few days were the last buffer. In this period, he must find the shortcut of this pass. Otherwise, if the other team caught up with them, they would basically die.
Although he didn't know why there was a limit to the individual strength, but there was an upper limit in strength, which was intermediate high order profession, and its Nine Regions equivalence. Wang Lu examined his own strength and asked himself what would happen if he had to fight against a Yuanying Stage opponent… If he gave it all, he would only last about two or three exchanges. Moreover, it could not be a Peak Yuanying Stage, or abnormal Yuanying Stage, it was mostly of those Tiger King of Beast Master School type. If he had to face the enemy on the level of his elders at Heavenly Sword Hall, no matter how confident Wang Lu was, he didn't think that his ten years of cultivation could keep up with them.
And this time, his opponents were Holy Ones, the legendary level Holy Ones.
The legendary level of Western Continent could roughly be equated to Unity Stage Cultivators of Nine Regions. Of course, that equation was just a bare minimum, because today's legendary level was not as good as the ones in the past. In the past, when Aya was in her peak, she actually didn't fully enter the threshold of the legendary level, yet, in her view, among the so-called Holy Light Religion's legendary level characters, except for the pope, she dared to fight any one of them. If it were the Administrator of the King's Treasure House, Aya could even take five at once.
"Hum?"
Taking the old road, Wang Lu soon again felt the oppression of gravity. However, this time the vehicle was carried on his back, so it didn't bear the combined weight of him and the vehicle itself, therefore, it was still able to hold on.
As Wang Lu continued to journey deep along the canyon, the force of gravity became even more oppressive. With almost every step, the pressure increased. However, as the gravity increased, Wang Lu became more and more aware that the thing was near.
In the end, he stopped on a deserted plain. Here, the gravity was thousands of times normal. Wang Lu felt as if he was carrying four or five heavy armored vehicles. Despite his near Jindan Stage physical strength, Wang Lu couldn't help but began to feel strenuous—Non-Phase Method was not well known for vigorous power, its pure power was limited. However, he had enough power to come here, where the source of that huge gravity was below his feet. There was something buried here that formed the peculiar gravitational environment of this valley.
The next step was to dig three feet deep here. Needless to say, since it could withstand the thousand-fold pressure, the ground was very firm. However, Wang Lu used his Sword of Mount Kun to dig the ground, treating it like a hoe. In just a little bit of digging, this upgraded spiritual treasure lived up to its expectation. With its sharpness, it cut the iron-like ground like mud, and its power even shook the earth—each time it pierced the ground, the whole valley trembled slightly.
The fly in the ointment to this was that, the sword spirit Autumn Beam was extremely discontented with this kind of wasteful-use-of-the-tool behavior. In her more than one thousand years of experience, following more than ten masters, not one of them had ever treated her more lightly than this, treating the dignified Sword of Mount Kun as a shovel. Therefore, during the excavation process, Autumn Beam didn't say a word, and she even refused to go out to meet Wang Lu.
For this kind of disregarding-the-authority-of-the-master acts, while digging, Wang Lu earnestly educated her, "Little Autumn, although you are a sword spirit of a spiritual treasure, could independently upgrade yourself, have a promising future, and your value is extraordinary, however, you absolutely can't look down on simple manual labor. You should know that there is a really big wisdom in this kind of low-level work. Which of our basic necessities in life that do not need labor? Your superior attitude will definitely limit your development. Of course, I won't blame you. Most of the spirits of the spiritual treasure like you are proud and arrogant. What a pity, it's also because of this that you can't go further into the realm of immortal treasure. Do you know what I think? I think it is necessary for a high-level magical weapon spirit to go down to accept the re-education at the bottom level!"
Wang Lu's earnestness did not get even the slightest response. After calling her out for a few times, to no avail, Wang Lu couldn't help but feel like he has been blacklisted...
Fortunately, when the excavation process has almost finished, Autumn Beam finally could not resist coming out. Not far away from Wang Lu's feet, there was a majestic energy fluctuation, which produced nearly ten thousand times of gravity, making it very hard for Wang Lu to stay standing and forcing him to slowly burn his innate vitality. Sensing this wave of fluctuation, Autumn Beam finally couldn't help but become curious.
"What is this?"
"This is strange to me too." Wang Lu was barely able to open his mouth. "I really can't think of what are the uses for this vehicle to have this powerful suction force. Is it to alleviate the driver's fatigue or just a fun toy design?"
Autumn Beam frowned. "Do you really think I can't understand it, therefore you explained it to me?"
Wang Lu was surprised. "Do you understand it?"
Autumn Beam coldly said, "Do you think I'm just a simple fool like Liu Li?"
Given the longevity of Autumn Beam, it was unrealistic to expect her to be as pure as Liu Li.
"Since you are well-informed, do you have any opinion on this?"
Autumn Beam said, "Not necessarily, but this attraction feels like it instinctively calls out for something. Unfortunately, the thing inside doesn't have any concept that can be described as spirit, otherwise, I might be able to communicate with it to investigate it."
In this treacherous land within the sea of clouds, perhaps even a spirit couldn't hold out for so many years. However, as a sword spirit, Autumn Beam's understanding of things was far superior than that of ordinary people. Coupled with her steady temperament and serious words, she was probably not wrong in judging that this gravity was a calling. "A calling, could it be…"
While thinking, he invited Autumn Beam to work with him, digging the last layer of soil. Although this last layer of soil was not thick, it has been pressured by ten thousand times of gravity for thousands of years, making it almost indestructible. Autumn Beam had to use the original power source of the spiritual treasure, which directly shook the ground as well as the soil, which revealed the thing that was underneath it.
It was a pitch black object, but upon closer look, was actually a sphere.

"value": "Chapter 28\nChapter 28: It’s actually an S!\n“How is it?” the Principal asked the three examiners.\nBefore the three examiners reported the emergence of the Dark Stone, Mu He said, “Oh, since there’s a problem, why don’t you let him do the test again. Director Wang, why don’t you go to the storage room and grab another Star Appraisal Stone. Although the Star Appraisal Stone is useful, it’s just a little fragile. After receiving interference of different energies, it’d start having problems. I’d really like to thank Mrs. Tangyue for finding out the problem with just a glance, you’re really covering up for our mistakes.”\nThis Mu He was really an old fox, he immediately covered up the matter. Thus, the three examiners were simply unable to report the actual problem.\nTangyue’s brow furrowed, she knew that this matter probably had something to do with Mu He.\nIf she were to make this matter public, the school directors would be quite difficult to deal with. After thinking it over, it would also affect the student’s examinations, so it was better if she just left it alone.\n“Student Mo Fan, there were some small problems with the Star Appraisal Stone. The grade from before is invalid, we will give you one more chance to redo the examination.” The bald examiner held onto a straw of hope as he quickly said this.\nMo Fan looked at these people as though he was looking at a group of clowns. You want to play? Keep on playing, this Father, I, am waiting!\n“Great, go take the test again. At most, you’ll receive a D, how could you receive a B? Third Brother, we can once again leave the school in a natural manner,” Lu Xiaobing said with excitement.\n_The heavens didn’t turn his back on I, Lu Xiaobing. I’m so thankful that Mrs. Tangyue discovered the problem. Just like I said, how could Mo Fan, a person who has even worse luck than me, have his luck turned over?_\n“Mrs. Tangyue, why did you even bother? Giving the student another chance isn’t necessarily a good thing.” Xue Musheng didn’t know whether to cry or laugh as he said this to Tangyue.\nSo it really was the Star Appraisal Stone malfunctioning, this made Xue Musheng feel bad.\nWhat should be happening was really coming at last. The penalty that no one had received in three years was finally going to land on a student in his own class!\n“Haha, how could I, Huang Feifeng possibly be at the very bottom. Mrs. Tangyue, you are a hero, I really admire you,” Huang Feifeng said, as if he was relieved of a burden.\nOn the other side, Mu Bai’s dog of a henchmen was also extremely happy.\n_Almost scared the hell out of me, I really thought this dreg was making a comeback. Even I, Zhao Kunsan, have only gotten a B!_\n“Good, good, Mu Bai, this broken Star Appraisal Stone almost secured the kid’s entrance. I’ve come to realize that Mrs. Tangyue is increasingly more like the lover of my dreams.” Zhao Kunsan wiped the cold sweat off himself as he continued, “Oh, Mu Bai, why do you still have such a long face? Didn’t they say that he only received a B due to the malfunction of the Star Appraisal Stone? Don’t worry, he will definitely get out of here.”\n“Could you shut up, you’re annoying!” Mu Bai snapped, as his mood was exceedingly bad.\nZhao Kunsan withdrew. He didn’t know how he had offended his master. ……\nThe examination of the other classes had basically ended. Due to the examination of the eighth class having some problems, many of the people began to gather around them, including the top students of the other classes.\nAt this time, Mo Fan accidentally became the focus point of everyone.\n“Alright, Mo Fan, you may redo your exam. Mrs. Tangyue, you’ve also inspected it, there shouldn’t be any problems this time right?” the bald examiner asked with a flattering smile.\n“No, there isn’t,” Mrs. Tangyue replied. Her dark eyes might have scorched his face for all the friendliness in them.\nMo Fan once again stood in front of the Star Appraisal Stone. This time, he didn’t feel a cold air coming off of it.\nIt really was Mu Bai’s fault!\nMo Fan humphed coldly. Thankfully, the sexiest and most enchanting Mrs. Tangyue discovered this so early, or else Mo Fan would appear to be lower than a piece of poop in front of the school directors!\nMo Fan closed his eyes and placed his hands on top of the Star Appraisal Stone. The cold Star Appraisal Stone quickly turned warm from the circulation of Mo Fan’s Stardust energy.\nThe radiance began to intensify, and the scarlet radiance looked as though it was burning from within. The radiance this time didn’t suffer from any kind of suppression as it was released. It spread around the Star Appraisal Stone, and it even began to leak out of it!\n“This…this radiance!!!”\nThe first one to reveal an incredibly surprised face was precisely Mu Zhuoyun. The Principal, Vice-Principal, the Disciplinary teachers, and the School Directors also widened their eyes.\n“The radiance is flowing out!” The homeroom teacher, Xue Musheng was thoroughly flabbergasted. After being a teacher for so many years, how could he not see the meaning behind the overflowing radiance?\nIn this entire school, only Mu Bai had achieved the state of overflowing radiance. It was not just because the flames were already relatively bright, but the overflowing of the Fire radiance was even a bit stronger than Mu Bai’s Ice radiance!\nThe surrounding students from other classes, and the students from the eight class were all trampled to near death by the word ‘Damn!’ in their hearts.\n_Overflowing radiance, this really is overflowing radiance!_\nA student who was considered a weak-minded dreg had actually achieved the state of overflowing radiance!! “S…S？”\n“It’s S…it really seems to be S.”\n“How about…how about we inspect it once more?”\nCrazy. The bald headed Director Wang and the other two examiners had gone crazy. The classmates who thought that Mo Fan would get swept out of the school had also gone crazy.\nShit, this is the real malfunctioning of the Star Appraisal Stone. How could that guy’s cultivation be at this kind of level??\n“It’s an illusion, it must be an illusion!”\n“I refuse to believe it, I REFUSE to believe it!!” The water element student Xiaobing was wailing like a ghost.\n_What happened to us leaving the school together??_\n_Let’s forget about the fact that you didn’t honor your title as a failure of a student, but you even became a Divine student. This time there will be no one who will stop me in my way, this daddy, I will jump into the river. If Mo Fan can become a Divine student, then I, a Water elemental Magician probably can drown to death?!_\nThe normally expressionless Mu Ningxue was completely showing her emotions at this time. That’s right, not even she imagined that the final result would be like this!\nFor a person like Mo Fan that didn’t have any particularly special talent, or a family property, receiving a B was already quite normal.\nHowever, he achieved overflowing radiance, the overflowing radiance of the Fire element. That was already one level ahead of Mu Bai, who had received resources from his family.\n“That really causes one to feel extremely shocked. I almost missed out on an even more remarkable student,” a school director exclaimed in admiration after seeing this event.\n“That’s right. I don’t dare to imagine what kind of disaster would be brought over if we were to only give him a B while also causing our school to lose out on such a prominent Magician.”\n“Better late than never! Mrs. Tangyue, we are really grateful to your ability to spot details!”\nAs Mrs. Tangyue saw the School directors flattering her, she only returned a small smile. The truth was, even Tangyue herself was extremely surprised.\nAll this time, she had been thinking that the most outstanding Fire elemental student in her class was Zhoumin. But to everyone’s surprise, this Mo Fan was even more remarkable. The most important thing was that he had always been calmly cultivating, not having the need to compete nor laying himself bare to others. This kind of temperament was very suitable for becoming a Magician."

第28章
竟然是S！
“如何？” 校长质问三位考官道。
“哦，既然有问题，那重新检测吧，王主任，你去储备室再拿一块星感石过来……星感石这东西，好用是好用，就是娇贵了一点，受到不同能量干扰后会出一些小问题，真是要感谢唐月老师，竟然一眼就发现了，为我们弥补了一项过错。”
穆贺这货不愧是老狐狸，马上将事情给挡了下来，更不让三位考官把实情给报出。
唐月虽然皱着眉头，但她也知道这事估计和穆贺脱不了关系。
要公开这事，校领导们也难做，考虑到这位学生考核也会受到影响还是就这样吧。 “恩，重考。”
“重考吧！” “莫凡同学，星感石出现了一些小问题，你刚才的成绩作废，我们会给你一次重考的机会。” 秃顶考官抓住了救命稻草，马上说道。
莫凡就像看一群小丑一样看着这群人。 折腾，继续折腾，爷爷在这等着呢！
“太好了，重考了，你最多就是一个D嘛，怎么可能是B，老三我们又可以一起潇潇洒洒出校门了。” 陆小斌同学满脸激动道。
老天不负我陆小斌啊，真要感谢唐岳老师及时发现了问题。 就说了，莫凡这平时比自己还坑怎么可能咸鱼翻身了。
“唐月老师，您这又是何苦呢，给学生一个机会也不是坏事嘛。” 薛木生哭笑不得的对唐越说道。
还真是星感石出问题了，薛木生整个人都不好了。
该来的还是来了，三年没开封的东西，真就被自己班的学生给开了！
“哈哈，我黄飞峰怎么可能垫底。 唐月老师真是英名，我太崇拜你了。” 同样是火系的黄飞峰如释重负的说道。
另一边，穆白的狗腿子赵坤三也高兴得不行。
吓死老子了，还以为这渣渣真就逆袭了，他赵坤三也不过是一个B啊。
“还好，还好，穆白，这坏的星感石差点让这小子门缝过关了，我发现唐月老师越来越像我梦中情人了。” 赵坤三擦了一下自己的冷汗，继续道，“咦，穆白，你干嘛还绷着脸，不说了星感石出问题他才拿了一个B吗，放心，他肯定要滚蛋的。”
“你能闭嘴吗，烦！” 穆白心情极度烦躁的说道。
赵坤三缩了缩脑袋，不知道自己哪里惹恼了主子。
别的班的测试基本上结束了，由于八班考核出了一些小问题，很多人都围了过来，包括其他班的那些尖子生们。
这一下，莫凡倒是一不小心成大家的焦点了。
“好了，莫凡同学，你可以重新测试了，唐月老师，你也检查过，这一次没有什么问题吧？” 秃顶考官笑得很恭维道。
“没有了。” 唐月老师回答道。
莫凡又一次站在了星感石上，这一次他没有感受到一股冰冷的气息扑打过来。
果然是穆白他们做了手脚！
莫凡冷哼了一声，还好自己最性感迷人的唐月老师发现的早，不然莫凡当着领导的面也要和这般孙子撕逼到底！
莫凡闭上了眼睛，将手放在了星感石上。 星感石的冰凉很快在莫凡星尘力量的传导下温柔了起来。
光芒从越演越烈，赤红色的光辉像是将整个星感石从里面烧起来，这一次光辉没有受到一点点压制，彻彻底底释放出来，他们遍布到了星感石周围，甚至溢出了星感石！ ！
！ ！”
第一个露出不可思议的人正是穆卓云。 校长、副校长、政教处主任、校董们也瞪大了他们的眼睛。
班主任薛木生已经彻彻底底傻眼了。 当了老师这么多年，他怎么会看不懂这光芒外溢？
全校里面似乎只有穆白达到了光芒外溢这个境界吧，不知是火焰本身就比较光亮的原故，这外溢的火系光芒甚至比穆白的冰系光辉还要强烈几分！
那些围观的别班学生，还有八班本班的学生，他们内心已经被“我草”这个震惊之词给践踏个死去活来！
光芒外溢，这真的是光芒外溢！ ！
一个几乎被评为弱智渣渣的学生尼玛达到了光芒外溢的境界！
“是S……好像真是S。”
“要不……要不，我们再检查一次？”
疯了，秃顶的王主任和另外两名考官都疯了，那些一直都觉得莫凡会被清理出学校的同班同学也疯了。
妈的，这才是星感石出错了吧，这货怎么可能修为高到这种程度？ ？
“是幻觉，一定是幻觉！”
“我不信啊，我不信啊，我不信啊！ ！”
说好的一起出校园了？
？ 你莫凡兑现学渣的承诺就算了，你还一秒变学神，这一次谁TM都别拦老子，老子要去跳河。 莫凡都可以成为学神，我一个水系的魔法师怎么不可以淹死？
一直都面无表情的穆宁雪在这个时候终于也动容了。 是的，连她都没有想到最终结果会是这样！
对莫凡这样没有特殊天赋，也没有家底的学生，拿一个B级真的很正常了。
可是，他达到了光芒外溢，火系的光芒外溢，比已经拥有一些资源和家族基础的穆白更甚一筹。
不知道为什么，穆宁雪心里有了一些阳光就如同那外溢的火系光芒散开了。 “真是令人大吃一惊啊，我们差点错过了一位更加出色的学生。” 一位校董惊叹过后说道。
“是啊，是啊，这你不敢想象只给他一个B的成绩，会对他将来造成如何恶劣的影响，又让我们学校损失多么杰出的一名魔法师。”
“亡羊补牢为时不晚，唐月老师，真要谢谢你的明察秋毫！”
唐月老师见各位领导都在恭维自己，只是浅浅一笑。 其实，唐月自己也吃惊不已。
一直都认为班级里最出色的火系学生是周敏，却不料这个莫凡竟然更加出众，最重要的是他之前一直沉心静气修炼，没有攀比，也没有暴露，这样的心性是成为魔法师的好胚子啊。

Chapter 28
Chapter 28: It’s actually an S!
“How is it?” the Principal asked the three examiners.

_The heavens didn’t turn his back on I, Lu Xiaobing. I’m so thankful that Mrs. Tangyue discovered the problem. Just like I said, how could Mo Fan, a person who has even worse luck than me, have his luck turned over?_
“Mrs. Tangyue, why did you even bother? Giving the student another chance isn’t necessarily a good thing.” Xue Musheng didn’t know whether to cry or laugh as he said this to Tangyue.
So it really was the Star Appraisal Stone malfunctioning, this made Xue Musheng feel bad.
What should be happening was really coming at last. The penalty that no one had received in three years was finally going to land on a student in his own class!
“Haha, how could I, Huang Feifeng possibly be at the very bottom. Mrs. Tangyue, you are a hero, I really admire you,” Huang Feifeng said, as if he was relieved of a burden.
On the other side, Mu Bai’s dog of a henchmen was also extremely happy.
_Almost scared the hell out of me, I really thought this dreg was making a comeback. Even I, Zhao Kunsan, have only gotten a B!_
“Good, good, Mu Bai, this broken Star Appraisal Stone almost secured the kid’s entrance. I’ve come to realize that Mrs. Tangyue is increasingly more like the lover of my dreams.” Zhao Kunsan wiped the cold sweat off himself as he continued, “Oh, Mu Bai, why do you still have such a long face? Didn’t they say that he only received a B due to the malfunction of the Star Appraisal Stone? Don’t worry, he will definitely get out of here.”
“Could you shut up, you’re annoying!” Mu Bai snapped, as his mood was exceedingly bad.
Zhao Kunsan withdrew. He didn’t know how he had offended his master. ……
The examination of the other classes had basically ended. Due to the examination of the eighth class having some problems, many of the people began to gather around them, including the top students of the other classes.
At this time, Mo Fan accidentally became the focus point of everyone.
“Alright, Mo Fan, you may redo your exam. Mrs. Tangyue, you’ve also inspected it, there shouldn’t be any problems this time right?” the bald examiner asked with a flattering smile.
“No, there isn’t,” Mrs. Tangyue replied. Her dark eyes might have scorched his face for all the friendliness in them.
Mo Fan once again stood in front of the Star Appraisal Stone. This time, he didn’t feel a cold air coming off of it.
It really was Mu Bai’s fault!
Mo Fan humphed coldly. Thankfully, the sexiest and most enchanting Mrs. Tangyue discovered this so early, or else Mo Fan would appear to be lower than a piece of poop in front of the school directors!
Mo Fan closed his eyes and placed his hands on top of the Star Appraisal Stone. The cold Star Appraisal Stone quickly turned warm from the circulation of Mo Fan’s Stardust energy.
The radiance began to intensify, and the scarlet radiance looked as though it was burning from within. The radiance this time didn’t suffer from any kind of suppression as it was released. It spread around the Star Appraisal Stone, and it even began to leak out of it!
“This…this radiance!!!”
The first one to reveal an incredibly surprised face was precisely Mu Zhuoyun. The Principal, Vice-Principal, the Disciplinary teachers, and the School Directors also widened their eyes.
“The radiance is flowing out!” The homeroom teacher, Xue Musheng was thoroughly flabbergasted. After being a teacher for so many years, how could he not see the meaning behind the overflowing radiance?
In this entire school, only Mu Bai had achieved the state of overflowing radiance. It was not just because the flames were already relatively bright, but the overflowing of the Fire radiance was even a bit stronger than Mu Bai’s Ice radiance!
The surrounding students from other classes, and the students from the eight class were all trampled to near death by the word ‘Damn!’ in their hearts.
_Overflowing radiance, this really is overflowing radiance!_
A student who was considered a weak-minded dreg had actually achieved the state of overflowing radiance!! “S…S？”
“It’s S…it really seems to be S.”
“How about…how about we inspect it once more?”
Crazy. The bald headed Director Wang and the other two examiners had gone crazy. The classmates who thought that Mo Fan would get swept out of the school had also gone crazy.
Shit, this is the real malfunctioning of the Star Appraisal Stone. How could that guy’s cultivation be at this kind of level??
“It’s an illusion, it must be an illusion!”
“I refuse to believe it, I REFUSE to believe it!!” The water element student Xiaobing was wailing like a ghost.
_What happened to us leaving the school together??_
_Let’s forget about the fact that you didn’t honor your title as a failure of a student, but you even became a Divine student. This time there will be no one who will stop me in my way, this daddy, I will jump into the river. If Mo Fan can become a Divine student, then I, a Water elemental Magician probably can drown to death?!_
The normally expressionless Mu Ningxue was completely showing her emotions at this time. That’s right, not even she imagined that the final result would be like this!
For a person like Mo Fan that didn’t have any particularly special talent, or a family property, receiving a B was already quite normal.
However, he achieved overflowing radiance, the overflowing radiance of the Fire element. That was already one level ahead of Mu Bai, who had received resources from his family.
“That really causes one to feel extremely shocked. I almost missed out on an even more remarkable student,” a school director exclaimed in admiration after seeing this event.
“That’s right. I don’t dare to imagine what kind of disaster would be brought over if we were to only give him a B while also causing our school to lose out on such a prominent Magician.”
“Better late than never! Mrs. Tangyue, we are really grateful to your ability to spot details!”
As Mrs. Tangyue saw the School directors flattering her, she only returned a small smile. The truth was, even Tangyue herself was extremely surprised.
All this time, she had been thinking that the most outstanding Fire elemental student in her class was Zhoumin. But to everyone’s surprise, this Mo Fan was even more remarkable. The most important thing was that he had always been calmly cultivating, not having the need to compete nor laying himself bare to others. This kind of temperament was very suitable for becoming a Magician.

With every individual plant, he bought it off of them with ten rumbs*.\nThe Rumb is the official unit of currency issued by the Kovitan Empire, its buying power is slightly higher than the American Dollar on Earth. That was not a bad value.\nAfter asking his servants to man the booths for purchasing the herbs, they spread the news, many townsfolk started collecting them for Garen.\nHis father Viscount Vanderman found out, but he didn’t ask. About his son’s behavior, he reasoned as one of his passing fads.\nAcacia used to like planting roses too, switching it for another isn’t that big of a deal.\nAfter the initial confusion, Viscount Vanderman found out that his son switched every single one of the roses to herbs. He guessed his son learned some alchemical formula from somewhere and that he kept wanting to have a mysterious potion for his own use.\nWith regards to this he scoffed, alchemical potions were debunked about a hundred years ago. It was just a scam, but one of the biggest scam in the century. It wasn’t spending much of his money, so he ignored it.\nViscount Vanderman was busier than usual.\nHe went to the capital of the empire and visited scores of famous Luminarists and aristocrats, getting information about the Obscuro Society. As an academic Luminarist, he always had means to contact people. After all the trouble he went through, he even gotten himself two other Luminarist friends to stay over at his manor for a few days to show the Royal family’s attitude toward them.\n\"Good evening Sirs.\" Garen stood in front of the white-bearded old men, greeting them with the utmost respect.\nThese two were his father’s Royal Luminarist friends from the capital city, Rob and Eric. They both wore white robes with silver lining, and had an aura of wisdom.\nBoth nodded.\n\"He’s not bad, even though he’s not intelligent, he’s still a polite kid.\"\n\"I can see the respect for intelligence in his eyes.\" Eric boomed. His voice is loud, echoing throughout the study.\nVanderman sit at the side, his face slightly fark.\n\"This attack on Cia, I strongly suspect it’s by the people over there. Several of the other lords were also attacked, reducing their powers. This is obviously a planned operation.\"\nHe eyed Garen.\n\"Cia, you can go now. Do go out unnecessarily, the situation now is a little unstable.\"\n\"Yes, father.\"\nEven though Garen wanted to listen to the conversation, but all three Luminarists were much stronger than his current self. Even if he recovered all his strength, it’s impossible to fight them. Eavesdropping is out of the question too.\nHe used his Turtle Breathing Technique and slowly backed away from the study. The hushed conversation carried on behind him. He left Vanderman’s building briskly.\nWhen he passed by the yard in front of the building, he looked up and stared at the candlelit room on the second floor.\n\"Looks like the RAL is going to fight back soon. They even got two Luminarists to support…\"\nHe strode toward his own building.\nClosing the door, he rushed to the second floor into his own study, closing all the curtains and windows.\nHe retrieved a redwood briefcase and unlocked it. There were scores of bottles with a cornflower blue potions.\n\"I managed to concoct so much potion, it wasn’t the millennium ones, but they can still work.\" He took out a bottle and chugged it.\nAfter one bottle, Garen kept the briefcase away.\nDuring the past few weeks, through collecting the herbs with his servants and brewing the potions himself, he had already consumed a large quantity of the potion, his body was almost back at his peak.\nHe glanced at the attribute pane, having a sense of expectation.\nJust a little more to his peak.\n‘Strength 2.0, Agility 1.9, Vitality 2.2, Intelligence 1.7. Luminarist Talent detected.’\n\"This is a physical attribute built purely with the potion, I have developed resistance to the potion, but I’m also almost recovered.\" Garen was happy at the result feeling his strength.\nAt his peak, all the attributes were about 2.6.\nAs of now, his attributes were twice an average person’s. When put together, his power would be exponentially more powerful than that. He can already use his strongest Four Secret Techniques.\nAll in all, he had already recovered 90% of his strength.\n\"However, this is no longer the original world. My strength here is not enough…\" Garen sighed.\nAfter resting for a bit, when the effects of the potion had subsided, his gaze fell upon the ability pane once again.\n\"Now that my body is almost back to normal, I need to work on my skills… Need to raise the level of Precision Blueprint.\"\nGaren stared at the skill Precision Blueprint for three seconds.\nImmediately, the name of the skill vibrated and blurred out and finally turned into Master-level!\nThe Potential Point decreased by 500% with just a second!\nThe skill pane has changed.\n‘Precision Blueprint: Master-level. (Levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Master)’\n\"It really is an advanced ability… I have advanced to Intermediate-level myself, so I didn’t use up the Potential Points, but now to turn it into Master-level, I used up 5 whole points…\" Garen thought begrudgingly.\nThe Potential Points looked like it was a lot when it was 18 points, but because of the Precision Blueprint skill, there are only 12 points left.\n\"I wonder if there are Antique of Disaster in this world…\" He thought.\nIn this manor, he had already touched all the antiques Vanderman collected, but none of them were Antiques of Disaster. His Potential Points had not changed.\nThis made him wonder if Antiques of Disaster actually exist in this world.\nFollowing the mastery of the skill Precision Blueprint, Garen felt another breeze as thick as ink flowing to his hands from his brain.

恢复
智力这东西，代表着记忆力，想象力，逻辑思维，等等各方面。 如果太低，就会导致学习力和领悟力大幅度下滑。
加隆坐在椅子上休息时，也重新开始考虑接下来的情况。
怎么会提前？” 他放下杯子，手指轻轻敲着桌面，露出思索之色。
“我记得，在贝克石眼来之前，发生过几次大事。 王室联盟的银灯师和黑天社闹翻，发生动乱冲突。
加隆回忆起画面中夹带的信息，心中隐隐有了把握。
他仔细筛选出画面中的一些细节。 很快便找到了三方各自旗帜下站着的最强银灯师。
王室联盟有三个人，分别是三大机关的领导者，也是王室和大贵族们的利益代表。
黑天社就是鬼门和他的两个弟子。
而地花社则是贝克石眼以及他的伙伴，加上白银骑士团团长。 虽然人数最多，但是实力反而是最弱的。
这就是银灯师三方面最强的银灯师。
而温德曼只是其中三大机关之外的零散支持者，同时也是黑天社的外围成员，算是贝克石眼一行人初期遭遇的对手之一。
加隆分析着，“只要这三个人在，黑天社应该不会有明目张胆的动作来袭击庄园。 那么对于我的袭击，应该就是用来警告父亲温德曼的了。”
他眉头微皱，顿时分析出大致的情况。
“接下来，即将发生的，应该是黑天社和王室联盟的小规模冲突，然后逐渐演变成大规模。 现在的地花社只是小角色，不值一提。
加隆眉头紧蹙，站起身。
“但是现在我被袭击，显然是双方已经不准备遮遮掩掩了。 有点撕破脸的味道。
“看来得提前进度了...”他终于下定决心。
视线顿时落在技能栏上。
那上边的精密制图一栏清晰的显示着掌握级的字样。
“先将这个提升到大师级，然后就去找老师埃宁提前学习术式，争取早点制作属于我的白银图腾。 不过在此之前，需要先彻底恢复实力！”
他脸上露出一丝坚决。
“这种时候也顾不了可能泄密那么多了。”
加隆下定决心后，便开始花钱雇佣山下镇上的山民，去山林里采集紫璐草百刺草等三种草药。
以每株十轮布的价格收购。 轮布是这个科威坦帝国发行的正规货币，购买力稍稍大于地球上的美元。
很快仆人设定收购点后，消息传出去，大量的山民开始在山林里收集加隆所需的草药。
父亲温德曼知道了消息后，并没有任何询问的意思。 对于他的这种举动，估计是以为他又想要种植什么花花草草。
艾哈希亚以前也一直喜欢种植玫瑰。 突然换一种花草种植也不是什么奇怪的事。
在疑惑之后，温德曼得知儿子将玫瑰园的玫瑰全部换掉，弄成了杂草园，也就不再多说了。 猜测这又是一次儿子的心血来潮。
估计从哪个地方学了点炼金术师的知识，整天神神秘秘的想要弄什么药水。 对此他嗤之以鼻，炼金术师的药水早在上百年前就被揭穿，证明了是世纪末最大的骗局。
现在的温德曼不是一般的忙。
他先去了一趟帝国首都，先后拜访了数十位有名望的银灯师和大贵族。 得到了很多关于黑天社的情报消息。 他作为一直以来的学者型银灯师，这方面的人脉非常广。
“两位老师好。” 加隆毕恭毕敬的站在两个白胡子老头面前，一点也不敢有任何不敬。
这两人就是父亲温德曼从**请来的两名王室银灯师。 一个叫罗布，一个叫埃里克。
两人都点点头。
“不错的孩子，虽然智力确实不怎么行，不过还是很懂礼貌的。”
“我从他的眼睛里看到了对知识的尊重。” 埃里克大声说。
温德曼就坐在一边，面色有些阴沉。
“这次希亚被袭击，我怀疑就是那边的人的警告。 还有我和几位大领主的力量也被偷袭，消减得厉害。
他看了眼加隆。
“希亚你可以下去了。 没事别出去，最近局势有点不稳定。”
“知道了父亲。”
加隆虽然也想听听三人的谈话，但三位银灯师都是比他现在强悍很多的高手，就算他实力全部恢复，也不可能力敌。 所以偷听也是不可能。
他维持着收敛精气神的龟息功，慢慢退出房间。 身后隐约传来三人细微的谈话声，他没有停留，大步离开了父亲温德曼所在的小楼。
走到小楼下面的草坪时，他仰起头，望着二楼点着灯的书房。
“看来王室联盟要开始反击了。
他快步沿着空旷的草坪回到自己的小楼。
关好门，快步上了二楼自己的书房。 将门窗都锁上，窗帘拉上。
他从床底下拉出一个红皮木箱子，打开锁，打开箱子。
“最近居然熬制积攒了这么多，虽然不是千年份的药姓，不过也对身体又恢复作用。”
他拿出一瓶，直接打开当做饮料一样喝了下去。
他这段时间，通过仆人代收药草，自己熬制，不知道喝了多少瓶药液。 身体也逐渐恢复到了接近巅峰的程度。
看了眼视野下方的属姓栏。
还差一点点就能彻底恢复到最顶峰的时候。
‘力量2.0.敏捷1.9.体质2.2，智力1.7.潜能1772%。
“这就是纯粹用药液堆出来的身体，现在药液对我的身体也有了抗药姓了，不过我也恢复得差不了多少了。”
他最强时期，所有素质属姓平均都在2.6左右。
现在恢复到了2.0相当于一般人的两倍以上，整合起来，全身爆发力量还要呈几何级数暴增。 已经能够用出最强的四大秘技了。
所以算起来，他的前世实力已经恢复了百分之九十以上。
“但现在已经不是原来的世界了。
休息了一下，等到药效全部消退，他的目光才再度落在了技能栏上。
“现在身体彻底恢复得差不多了，就看技能了...精密制图也该提升了。”
加隆开始盯着精密制图这个技能，视线停留三秒。
很快，技能字样微微一抖，模糊了一下、从掌握级，终于变成了大师级！
而潜能点一栏，唰的一下，瞬间少了500%！
技能栏顿时变成了。
‘精密制图：大师级。
“果然是高级技能....先前我是自己突破到掌握级，所以没消耗潜能点。 现在突破到高级技能..果然就是五点潜能...”加隆感觉一阵肉疼。
原本看起来很多的18点，就因为精密制图一个技能，就只剩下了12点。
“只是不知道这个世界到底有没有厄运古董了...”他有些无奈的想。
在这个庄园里，反正父亲温德曼收藏的古董，他都一个个的触摸过了，但是没有一个是厄运古董。
这让他有些怀疑这个世界到底有没有厄运古董这东西。
随着精密制图提升到大师级，加隆再度感觉到一股浓密如钢笔的清凉气流，瞬间从大脑流出，分别散入双臂双手。

Chapter 247: Recovery 1
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Intelligence is a funny thing. It represents the ability to memorize, imagine, analyze, so on and so forth. If it’s too low, it’d be severely impact the ability to learn and comprehend.
Garen rested on his chair, considering his next moves.
"The timeline is changing, that Diaz shouldn’t be here yet, why is she sent here early?" He set down his cup, his fingers tapping the table.
"If I recall correctly, there were a few major events before Beckstone arrived. The RAL (Royal Alliance of Luminarists)* had a fall out with the Obscuro preceding some riots. Within a year the power that RAL holds weakened significantly, until they were overturned by the Obscuro. The key turning point of that was the War of the Luminarists led by Rosette."
Reviewing the information from the memory, Garen started to finalize his plans.
He meticulously picked at specific details in the memory. Soon, he found the strongest Luminarists under all three factions.
The Royal Alliance of Luminarists had three Luminarists leading the three departments, they represented the benefits of the Royal family and the nobles.
Obscuro’s were Hellgate and his two disciples.
Terraflor’s were Beckstone and his teammates, along with the Silver Knight’s leader. They have a lot of people, but they were the weakest out of the three.
These are the strongest Luminarists from the three factions.
Viscount Vanderman was only one of the supporters outside the three departments, and was at the same time an outer member of the Obscuro, he was one of the initial opponents Beckstone faced.
"The leaders of the three departments of RAL, that’s too far away. Any one of them would be stronger than Beckstone in his most powerful period. Vanderman couldn’t even reach them." Garen analyzed. "If these three people were still alive, Obscuro wouldn’t be so daring to attack the manor. In that case, the attack I faced was probably as a warning to Vanderman."
Frowning, he figured out the situation.
"The following event would probably be small-scale collisions between Obscuro and the RAL before it turned into large-scale ones. Right now, Terraflor is still a small fry. With upcoming battles, Obscuro wouldn’t be able to pay attention to us, so they will only destroy the manor when Beckstone arrives."
Garen’s brows were tightly knit, he stood up.
"But I was just attacked, that means both sides were not planning to do it secretly anymore. Time is running short, maybe the timeline would be shifted forward even more."
He paced in his room. "I need to keep up…" He had made his mind.
His gaze fell onto the ability pane.
His Precision Blueprint skill was shown as Intermediate-level.
"I’ll raise this to Master-level first, then I’ll go look for Teacher Emin to learn the Tactics to get a head start with creating my own Totem. But before that, I need to recover my strength completely!"
He showed a sense of determination.
"No more keeping secrets, I guess."
After Garen made up his mind, he started hiring the townsfolk in the town to pick amejade grass, pinweed and the other herb. With every individual plant, he bought it off of them with ten rumbs*.
The Rumb is the official unit of currency issued by the Kovitan Empire, its buying power is slightly higher than the American Dollar on Earth. That was not a bad value.
After asking his servants to man the booths for purchasing the herbs, they spread the news, many townsfolk started collecting them for Garen.
His father Viscount Vanderman found out, but he didn’t ask. About his son’s behavior, he reasoned as one of his passing fads.
Acacia used to like planting roses too, switching it for another isn’t that big of a deal.
After the initial confusion, Viscount Vanderman found out that his son switched every single one of the roses to herbs. He guessed his son learned some alchemical formula from somewhere and that he kept wanting to have a mysterious potion for his own use.
With regards to this he scoffed, alchemical potions were debunked about a hundred years ago. It was just a scam, but one of the biggest scam in the century. It wasn’t spending much of his money, so he ignored it.
Viscount Vanderman was busier than usual.
He went to the capital of the empire and visited scores of famous Luminarists and aristocrats, getting information about the Obscuro Society. As an academic Luminarist, he always had means to contact people. After all the trouble he went through, he even gotten himself two other Luminarist friends to stay over at his manor for a few days to show the Royal family’s attitude toward them.
"Good evening Sirs." Garen stood in front of the white-bearded old men, greeting them with the utmost respect.
These two were his father’s Royal Luminarist friends from the capital city, Rob and Eric. They both wore white robes with silver lining, and had an aura of wisdom.
Both nodded.
"He’s not bad, even though he’s not intelligent, he’s still a polite kid."
"I can see the respect for intelligence in his eyes." Eric boomed. His voice is loud, echoing throughout the study.
Vanderman sit at the side, his face slightly fark.
"This attack on Cia, I strongly suspect it’s by the people over there. Several of the other lords were also attacked, reducing their powers. This is obviously a planned operation."
He eyed Garen.
"Cia, you can go now. Do go out unnecessarily, the situation now is a little unstable."
"Yes, father."
Even though Garen wanted to listen to the conversation, but all three Luminarists were much stronger than his current self. Even if he recovered all his strength, it’s impossible to fight them. Eavesdropping is out of the question too.
He used his Turtle Breathing Technique and slowly backed away from the study. The hushed conversation carried on behind him. He left Vanderman’s building briskly.
When he passed by the yard in front of the building, he looked up and stared at the candlelit room on the second floor.
"Looks like the RAL is going to fight back soon. They even got two Luminarists to support…"
He strode toward his own building.
Closing the door, he rushed to the second floor into his own study, closing all the curtains and windows.
He retrieved a redwood briefcase and unlocked it. There were scores of bottles with a cornflower blue potions.
"I managed to concoct so much potion, it wasn’t the millennium ones, but they can still work." He took out a bottle and chugged it.
After one bottle, Garen kept the briefcase away.
During the past few weeks, through collecting the herbs with his servants and brewing the potions himself, he had already consumed a large quantity of the potion, his body was almost back at his peak.
He glanced at the attribute pane, having a sense of expectation.
Just a little more to his peak.
‘Strength 2.0, Agility 1.9, Vitality 2.2, Intelligence 1.7. Luminarist Talent detected.’
"This is a physical attribute built purely with the potion, I have developed resistance to the potion, but I’m also almost recovered." Garen was happy at the result feeling his strength.
At his peak, all the attributes were about 2.6.
As of now, his attributes were twice an average person’s. When put together, his power would be exponentially more powerful than that. He can already use his strongest Four Secret Techniques.
All in all, he had already recovered 90% of his strength.
"However, this is no longer the original world. My strength here is not enough…" Garen sighed.
After resting for a bit, when the effects of the potion had subsided, his gaze fell upon the ability pane once again.
"Now that my body is almost back to normal, I need to work on my skills… Need to raise the level of Precision Blueprint."
Garen stared at the skill Precision Blueprint for three seconds.
Immediately, the name of the skill vibrated and blurred out and finally turned into Master-level!
The Potential Point decreased by 500% with just a second!
The skill pane has changed.
‘Precision Blueprint: Master-level. (Levels: Beginner, Intermediate, Master)’
"It really is an advanced ability… I have advanced to Intermediate-level myself, so I didn’t use up the Potential Points, but now to turn it into Master-level, I used up 5 whole points…" Garen thought begrudgingly.
The Potential Points looked like it was a lot when it was 18 points, but because of the Precision Blueprint skill, there are only 12 points left.
"I wonder if there are Antique of Disaster in this world…" He thought.
In this manor, he had already touched all the antiques Vanderman collected, but none of them were Antiques of Disaster. His Potential Points had not changed.
This made him wonder if Antiques of Disaster actually exist in this world.
Following the mastery of the skill Precision Blueprint, Garen felt another breeze as thick as ink flowing to his hands from his brain. Translator's Thoughts
1. May shorten to RAL in future chapters depending on context.

第四百四十八章
一般企业在其创建的初期，都会有一个相对艰难的阶段，这时候，除了智慧与勤奋，往往还需要一些浪漫主义精神。
便如马云和他的十八罗汉挤在小屋里奋斗的那些日子，没点精神上的充实感，其实没那么好坚持。
如果说，许庭生的存在，代表着互诚的浪漫主义情怀，甚至还有一些英雄主义情结，那么，陆芷欣就是互诚踏实、严谨，甚至有些过于严肃的工作作风的缔造者和代表。
她从呆立中回过神来，再一次跟自己确定，许庭生已经完成他的告别，而这场告别，归根到底源自于她。
台下老歪和李琳琳等人可以放肆的表达自己的情绪，不舍，掉眼泪。
但是，陆芷欣不可以，哪怕真正彻底被斩断牵绊的人，其实是她。 许庭生和互诚之间还有联系，和老歪这批人，甚至一些互诚老员工，仍会保持感情……除了她，陆芷欣，那份无偿的股份转让合同就像是许庭生的“赎买券”，两人过往的一切，都被一纸抹去。
她其实很想对许庭生说点什么，也会想像个脆弱的女孩那样哭一场……但是，她必须顾全大局，稳定局面。 她很清醒，因为她是陆芷欣——许庭生亲口说过的，生平仅见陆芷欣。
站在演讲台前的陆芷欣保持着微笑和平静的表情。
“互诚会在一年内覆盖国内绝大部分城市，会在两年内完成上市。” 这是以互诚继任总裁的身份，陆芷欣说的第一句话，简短而坚定。 霸道女总裁上线的既视感。
稍微愣了愣神。 “还有一点，许……许总关于互诚有过一个梦想，他希望互诚未来能建立至少五十所实体教育培训学校。 我在这里承诺，这件事，将来一定会实现。”
第二句话说完，陆芷欣发现所有人都看着她，表情有些怪异，记者们在狂按快门。
半句话，然后是抽动鼻尖的声音，不自觉的一下，陆芷欣自己突然才意识到，她刚刚……有些哽咽。
眼眶酸涩，陆芷欣低头用手背抹了一下，强自镇定说：“接下来，我宣布一些人事方面的变动。”
原总裁助理唐雨菲，将接管运营部。 同时，公司股东甄爱艾和李琳琳将会回归管理层，暂定负责即将成立的内部监督部门。”
陆芷欣宣布了她接任后的第一项任命和人事调整，老歪和李琳琳都已经马上要进入大三下学期，若按正常轨道，接下去应该是见习、实习、找工作、写论文的节奏，但是，他们显然已经不在这条轨道上。
两人的回归并不是许庭生的要求，是陆芷欣主动提出的，然后征得了许庭生的同意。 至于老歪和李琳琳，他们多少有一种自己要为许庭生死守在互诚的执念在，所以，也没有矫情拒绝。
这样的安排既合情合理，也是陆芷欣在传递的一个信号：她不会排挤、打压许庭生旧部。
但是，成立内部监督部门？ ……台下议论纷纷。
陆芷欣一言不发，静看了一会，等到议论终于平息，才继续说：“接下来，大家一起欢迎一下我们互诚的新股东，金盛兴，金先生。”
一片礼貌的掌声中，老金起身打了个招呼。
小金山在一旁扯他的手臂，老金只好把他抱起来，小金山也一点不紧张的跟在场上千人招手，打了个招呼。 混子爹，混仔儿子，生来就到哪都不怵。
工作人员递来话筒。
老金接过来，说了一句：“以后有我在，互诚就不会缺钱。 老金说完笑了笑。
小金山凑过来说：“对，我家特别有钱。”
满场哄笑。
“啊？”
“哗！”
在场包括互诚中高层，都惊呼出声，然后开始交头接耳的议论，谁啊？ 你们之前有消息吗？
所有人都摇头。 互诚长期以来都只设一位副总裁，之前是陆芷欣，如今是王拓，这是大型公司里比较少见的，但是，大家都已经习惯了。
现在突然增设一名副总裁，而且是新人……每个人都难免好奇、意外。
陆芷欣镇定的继续道：“大家掌声欢迎，互诚新任副总裁……张兴科。”
说了掌声欢迎，陆芷欣也带头鼓掌，但是台下，没有掌声，因为所有人，或有声，或无声，都在问：“谁？ 我是不是听错了？
……那个混蛋？ 一片嘈杂中，台上一侧走出来一个人，一边走，一边笑容满面的打着招呼。
人看起来有点普通，个头普通、相貌普通，衣着也普通……互诚绝不大部分人都不认识这张脸，所以他真的是？
所以，真的是张兴科，互诚的新任副总裁。
他是曾经互诚的第一个敌人，差点在起步初期把互诚逼入绝境的那个家伙，后来，还给许庭生挖过坑，他是互诚上下，最讨厌，最恨得牙痒痒的一个人。
很高兴加盟互诚。” 以一种对所有情绪视若无睹的姿态，张兴科镇定的打了他在互诚的第一个招呼。
“你们都听说过我吧？” 他笑着问道。

Chapter 448
Most enterprises would have it harder for a period of time in their initial stages. During this time, intelligence and diligence aside, a kind of romanticism was generally needed too.
Such as Jack Ma and the other seventeen founders of Alibaba, squeezed and striving together in a small house. Without the fulfilment derived from the process, it would actually not be as easy to persist.
If Xu Tingsheng’s presence was representative of Hucheng’s romanticism, even heroism, Lu Zhixin was representative of Hucheng’s solemnity and steadfastness, even strictness. Such was her prevailing image and management ideology.
Recovering from her daze, she reiterated to herself that Xu Tingsheng had already completed his farewell, for which she was also ultimately responsible.
Sitting amongst the audience, Old Wai, Li Linlin and the others could freely let their emotions run their course, shedding tears at their reluctance to see him go.
Still, Lu Zhixin could not do so, even though it was really the ties between she and him that had been completely severed. There would still be contact between Xu Tingsheng and Hucheng, with Old Wai’s lot and even some of Hucheng’s former employees…all but her, Lu Zhixin. With that unconditional transfer of shares, a sort of ‘redemption' had already occurred as no longer would Xu Tingsheng owe her anything at all. All that had happened between them was, effective from that moment, void.
She actually very much wanted to say a little something to Xu Tingsheng, also imagining weeping like a frail maid…still, she had to properly conduct herself in overseeing the overall situation. She was very clear-headed, because she was Lu Zhixin. Xu Tingsheng’s own words: Lu Zhixin, the one and only.
Standing before the podium, Lu Zhixin maintained her calm, a smile hanging on her face.
"Hucheng will encompass the majority of China's cities within a year and will get listed within two years," This was the first thing said by Lu Zhixin in the capacity of Hucheng's succeeding CEO as it was concise and firm. It instilled in everyone's minds the image of a domineering female CEO.
"Also, one more thing. Xu…Boss Xu once had a dream regarding Hucheng. He hoped that in the future, Hucheng will be able to establish at least fifty actual educational training institutes. Here, I promise that this will definitely come to fruition."
Having finished saying this second thing, Lu Zhixin found that everyone was looking at her with rather unusual expressions on their faces. The reporters were clicking their shutters like crazy.
An inadvertent sniffle cut her off. Only now did Lu Zhixin realise that…she had been choking back on her emotions a little earlier. Feeling her eyes stinging somewhat, Lu Zhixin looked downwards and wiped them with the back of her hand before forcibly composing herself.
She said, "Next up, I will be announcing a couple of changes with regard to personnel."
"Originally the operations director and business director of 'Are You Hungry', Wang Tuo will be assuming the role of VP while retaining the role of 'Are You Hungry's' business director. The former CEO's secretary, Tang Yufei, will be taking charge of the operations department. In addition, the company's shareholders, Wa Aiyi and Li Linlin, will be returning to management. They will be temporarily in charge of the soon to be established internal supervisory division."
Lu Zhixin announced the reshuffling of positions following her inauguration. Old Wai and Li Linlin, soon to enter their next semester in their third year of university, would normally have gone the route of internship, finding a job and writing a thesis. Yet, they had evidently already deviated from this track.
It was not Xu Tingsheng who had requested for their return. Instead, it was Lu Zhixin who had proposed it and sought Xu Tingsheng's approval. As for Old Wai and Li Linlin, both possessing a sort of determination to guard Hucheng to the bitter end for Xu Tingsheng, they did not reject the offer out of pride or whatever as well.
Such an arrangement, while being perfectly reasonable, also conveyed Lu Zhixin's intent: She would not ostracise and suppress those loyal to Xu Tingsheng.
Still, forming an internal supervisory division? …Everyone now began heatedly discussing this amongst themselves.
Lu Zhixin said nothing and waited for silence to resume before she continued, "Next up, let us all welcome Hucheng's new shareholder, Mister Jin Shengxing."
Amidst polite applause, Old Jin got up and greeted them.
As Little Jinshan was tugging on his arm, Old Jin could only lift him up too. Little Jinshan was not nervous in the least as he waved and greeted the thousand plus people present. A father who lived as he liked, a son just as unique. He had never feared anything since he was born.
Someone passed Old Jin a microphone.
Old Jin took it and said, "In the future, with me around, Hucheng will never be in need of money. If I alone am not enough, it's okay. I still have around 30 bros over there, half a city of bosses of mines…"
Little Jinshan leaned over and chimed in, "Yeah, my family's especially rich!"
After this brief episode, Lu Zhixin coughed lightly and continued, "Next up is the final thing on today's agenda. I'll be introducing everyone to a new colleague of yours, who's also to be the second VP of Hucheng…"
"Huh?"
"What!"
Hucheng's middle and higher echelons and everybody else released startled exclamations as a buzz ran through the room. Who? Did you guys hear anything about this? Everyone shook their heads.
Hucheng had only ever had a single VP at once before. It had previously been Lu Zhixin, and now it was Wang Tuo. While this was rarer in big companies, everyone was already used to it.
Now, they suddenly had an additional VP, and it was a newcomer too…everyone inevitably felt surprised and curious.
Lu Zhixin continued calmly, "Everyone, please put your hands together to welcome Hucheng's new VP…Zhang Xingke."
Having called for applause, Lu Zhixin was leading by example up on stage. Yet, there was no applause amongst the audience as everyone was questioning either inwardly or out loud, "Who? Could I have heard wrong? Zhang Xingke? Same name? …No, right? Not that bastard?…"
Amidst the racket, a person walked over from the side of the stage, waving as he was full of smiles. He looked pretty ordinary in terms of stature, looks and clothes…most of Hucheng's employees did not recognise this face. So, was it really him?
"It really is him, Zhang Xingke. That's right, it's him," Old Wai looked back and affirmed the suspicions of Hucheng's middle echelons with certainty.
So, it really was Zhang Xingke who was to be Hucheng's new VP.
He had once been Hucheng's number one enemy as he had nearly driven Hucheng to the brink of the abyss in its initial stages. He had even swindled Xu Tingsheng afterwards. He was the most hated, detestable, teeth-gnashing-worthy enemy for everyone of Hucheng doubtless.
"Hello, everyone. My name is Zhang Xingke. I'm very happy to be joining Hucheng," In a manner that rendered all emotions that might presently be directed at him invalid, Zhang Xingke calmly gave his first official greeting as Hucheng's VP.
"I guess you all must have heard of me before?" He smiled and enquired.

Traceless Invisibility.\nSkinorse instantly vanished on the spot. Link gestured at him to enter into the magic tower with him. He could sense the light stirring of air as Skinorse followed him from behind.\nThe number of students on the first floor of the Mage Tower had increased to around eighty. As soon as he stepped through the door, the students noticed him immediately, and everyone stood at attention before him in a flurry.\nBefore, Link had not been used to such courteous treatment; now, he did not mind it as much. He greeted the young students with a wave of his hand before striding off towards the higher levels of the Mage Tower.\nWhen they finally reached the attic at the top of the tower, Link snapped his fingers, removing the invisibility spell from Skinorse's body.\nThe attic was cluttered with all kinds of everyday objects. Leaning on something wrapped in fur, Link waited until Skinorse had entered the room, then proceeded to cast a soundproof spell on the door.\n\"All right, you can talk.\"\nSkinorse handed a Memory Crystal to Link. \"Lord Link, you'd better take a look at this.\"\nLink took the crystal from him. Upon activating it, an indistinct image was projected into the air. From the low angle the image was taken at, it was evident that the user of the Memory Crystal was exercising great caution while using it in a crowded area.\nThe backs of a group of soldiers could be seen in the image. Then, a voice spoke out. \"This Magician was practising black magic. When he was found out, not only did he refuse to make public the contents of his magic, he even assaulted the investigators, severely injuring two warriors in the process. He must be an agent of the dark forces!\"\nAs soon as he finished speaking, there was a terrible thud. Though the image did not show what had made the sound, Link was familiar enough with it to know that someone had been decapitated.\n\"That voice, was it Duke Abel?\"\n\"Yes, it was him.\"\nIn the image, when the deed was done, the surrounding soldiers began to scatter from the place. The Magician who had been hiding in the crowd gave the execution grounds one last sweep with the Memory Crystal before putting it away.\nAt this point, Link paused the image.\nOn the execution ground lay four headless corpses, which meant that three other people had been executed before the Magician. Duke Abel and a few other generals sat on a high bench in the distance, stern expressions on their faces.\nLooking at this, Link deactivated the Memory Crystal and told Skinorse, \"The army was handing out executions to those guilty of insubordination. I don't think that's important enough to bring it to me.\"\nThe voice from the Memory Crystal had already stated the reasons for the execution clearly: illegal practice of black magic and assault on one's fellow officers. After the Orida Fortress' confrontation with the Dark Army, they had been on high alert for any sign of black magic. What this Magician did was no different from suicide.\nSkinorse nodded. \"Purely based on what you've seen from the image, it may seem normal. But I feel that the duke himself has been a bit aggressive as of late.\"\n\"What do you mean?\" Link knew that Skinorse would not have come to him with just a hunch; he must have had concrete evidence with him.\nSkinorse gazed out the window. After the confrontation in the north, his handsome face had wizened a great deal, and there were a few more tufts of white hair growing out of his temples. He frowned and said in a gravelly voice, \"Not long after you left, the duke began a purge of the army through a special unit that was tasked with carrying out investigations on every warrior, including their backgrounds. As for Magicians, they were required to make public the findings of their research on magic. This doesn't seem like much at first thought, but after a month into the operation, they began taking a more excessive approach, to the point that there was no turning back.\"\nSkinorse turned to look at Link. \"I once saw an officer who was hung on the gallows just because he had a demon fang in his possession. There was even a warrior who thought it would be fun to carve a wooden statue of a succubus and was then beheaded for it. The Magician that was executed in the image, the 'black magic' that he was practicing was a Level-4 Eye of the Soul spell, a practically harmless detection spell, and the reason he assaulted those warriors was because they had torn up his research in front of him. It's as if the duke has already gone off the deep end. He's basically mad at this point.\"\nLink furrowed his brows at this. This did indeed seem a bit excessive. He asked, \"Has anyone approached him about this?\"\n\"The dean of the East Cove Magic Academy went over to exchange words with him, but they still parted with ill will. The duke remained quiet for a few days, but resumed his inquisition not long after.\"\n\"Does King Leon know about this?\" asked Link.\n\"Yes, he does. The king has written a few letters to him, but you know, after the destruction of Hot Spring City, the king's authority has been at an all-time low.The duke didn't seem too concerned about him,\" Skinorse replied.\nFinally, Link asked, \"Barring all those things, how is Duke Abel faring in the affairs of defense lately?\"\n\"Though far more aggressive than before, he has also been very productive in that regard. More than thirty demons are being exterminated every day in the Black Forest. At first, we were even killing more than 100 Dark Elves almost every day; now, we can't even find a single Dark Elf within the area 200 miles north of Orida Fortress. There was also one time Kanorse slayed a Level-8 demon. He was then greatly rewarded by the duke and made leader of the first legion.\"\nAll this was truth. Skinorse reported all that he had witnessed to Link without any omission.\n\"I see.\" Link fell silent.\nTo normal people like Skinorse, what Duke Abel had done may have seemed cruel and excessive, but in Link's eyes, the duke had simply been fulfilling his duties, no more, no less.\nDuke Abel's primary task had been to defend the fortress from the demons and Dark Elves of the Black Forest. He should not have been reprimanded for doing so well.\nMore importantly, Link was only a lord of Ferde. These matters had nothing to do with him.\nIt was also pointless for him to write a letter to the duke or meet him personally at this point, since King Leon and Master Magician Anthony had already done both those things, but to no avail. Any further action from him would probably elicit anger from the duke, maybe even backfiring on Link himself.\nHowever, this was something he could not ignore. Duke Abel may have been traumatised by the great war, and given the current circumstances, he may not have been of sound mind, which was not a good thing.\nAfter thinking about it for a while, Link decided that the wisest course of action for now was to simply wait and see.\nHe took out a piece of Thorium and a Black Kun rock and began casting an enchantment on both of them. Around ten minutes later, he was able to forge a rune stone out of both materials, then infused his Dragon Power into it. Link handed the rune stone to Skinorse. \"This is something I don't think I'm able to intervene in freely. Take the rune stone back north and continue your observations. Report back to me if there are any new advancements. If you find yourself in danger, activate this rune stone to cast a one-time 2,000-feet teleportation spell.\"\nSkinorse accepted the runestone and opened his mouth as if to say something before closing it again.\nSkinorse let out a sigh. \"As a matter of fact, I do not plan on going back this time. Now that the Divine Gear is gone, and the Dark Elves have been defeated, I do not feel like staying in the army any longer. Things have become too oppressive. I'm only here to bring you this message, then I'll be off to do my own adventuring across the continent.\"\nLink was rendered speechless. \"So you're a deserter?\"\nThis fellow sure was cunning, to have the nerve to leave out such an important piece of information and abscond after receiving a rune stone from him!\nSkinorse became apprehensive. \"You won't force me back to the fortress, will you?\"\nLink shook his head. \"I won't. Since you won't be going back, I'll just have to send for someone else to continue observing things in the north... You said something about going off on an adventure?\"\nA bit startled by this, Link asked, \"Oh, I remember the first time you came to me, you were saying something about looking for the tomb of some late dwarf king. What happened to your other companions?\"\n\"They didn't fare too well. The priestess is still alive, though the others fell in battle. Truth be told, she's coming with me down south. How about it, do you still want to come along with us?\"\nLink was now a Legendary master. Why would he lower himself to robbing graves with him?\nLink shook his head, smiling. \"No, I can't. I'm still busy with the affairs of Ferde. But if you're going, I do have a few things I would like you to find for me. You'll be handsomely compensated for your troubles.\"\nSkinorse's eyes lit up. \"I don't want money, I deal only in magical equipment! I'll steal even the Red Dragon Queen's underwear for you if you're able to give me some magical gear in exchange!\"\nLink took out a piece of Jogu and gave it to him. \"I want a stone like this one. Find as much as you can in your travels. Also, you may come across some members of the dragon race who are searching for the same kind of stone in your path. Just show this to them, and they'll let you have the stone.\"\nLink then gave Skinorse a piece of silver-black dragon scale, which would serve as proof of his identity among the dragon race.\n\"I understand.\" Skinorse toyed with the scale a little, curious about its composition.\n\"As for your reward, if you're able to give me a hundred Jogus, I'll forge you a piece of Legendary equipment of your own choosing.\"\nSkinorse was already nodding furiously before Link had even finished. \"What about a Legendary dagger? Whatever, I'll do it. Er, what about my priestess friend?\"\n\"She will be rewarded as well. You just bring her here, and she'll receive a piece of magical equipment from me, too.\"\n\"That won't be a problem. I'll hold onto this scale and bring back 101 Jogus for you before you know it.\"\n\"Bring as much as you can. Remember, 100 Jogus for one piece of magical gear.\"\nSkinorse heaved a long sigh. \"Oh, you really know how to work someone to the bone.\"\nWhen all was said and done, Skinorse realized that he had not a single gold coin on him, what with being a thief who didn't steal for gold. He then put aside all sense of shame and asked for a bag of gold coins before leaving the room with an air of satisfaction.\nLink returned to his quarters and rested for a bit. It wasn't long before Lucy barged into the room.\n\"My lord, our anti-magic soil mines have been dug empty, and the city hall is almost out of money.\"\nLucy spread an account book out in front of Link, who saw that everything was in red. They had been running a deficit for a long while."

第四百九十九章
樊克诺斯乔装打扮过，打扮地十分仔细，如果换了其他人，绝对没法认出他来，林克估计他是真有大事。
这时候的林克，心性极定，他若无其事地对樊克诺斯一弹，一粒光点飞过去。
林克摆了个手势，示意对方跟进魔法塔，然后他自己就走进了魔法塔，他能感觉到，樊克诺斯轻手轻脚地跟在他的身后。
一层魔法塔里的学徒们又增加了一些，大约80多人，林克刚走到门口，有学徒发现了他，几秒后，‘哗啦’一下，所有学徒立即都站了起来，屏息静气地对他行注目礼。
以前，林克对这阵仗还有些不习惯，现在他也无所谓了，摆了摆手算是对各个年轻人打了个招呼，然后就继续朝魔法塔高层走去。
一直走到魔法塔尖顶的一个僻静阁楼，林克打了个响指，取消了樊克诺斯身上的隐身术。
阁楼里摆着一些杂物，都是一些常用物资，林克半靠在一堆皮毛包裹上，等樊克诺斯进了阁楼，他意念又一动，对着阁楼门释放了一个隔音的魔法门。
“好了，可以说了。”
樊克诺斯先将一块记忆水晶递给林克：“领主大人，您先看看这里面的东西。”
林克接过，激活，一个略有些模糊的影像投射在空中的，可以看出，记忆水晶的使用者小心地躲在人群中，所以影像视角很低。
影像中先是出现很多士兵的后背，同时有一个声音响起来：“这个魔法师，他私下研究黑暗的魔法，被发现后，他拒绝公布魔法内容，还攻击搜查者，造成两个战士重伤，这必定是黑暗的仆从，该杀！”
声音落下，就听‘噗’一声血肉切割声，虽然没看到具体的影像，但林克很熟悉这声音，知道是有人被砍了脑袋。
“这声音是阿贝尔公爵？”
“是他。”
影像中，魔法师被杀后，聚拢围观的士兵也纷纷散去，躲在人群中的这个魔法师在最后一刻扫了一眼刑场，然后就收起了记忆水晶。
林克就在这一瞬间定格了影像。
刑场中，有四个无头的尸体，这说明这个魔法师之前已经有三个人被杀了，阿贝尔公爵和几个军官坐在一张高椅上，一个个神情凛然。
看到这里，林克收起了记忆水晶，问樊克诺斯：“军中杀一些违反军令的人，不算大事吧？”
影像中那声音已经说明了理由，偷学黑魔法，还攻击军官，奥瑞达要塞又刚刚遭遇过黑暗军团，对任何黑暗魔法都是高度警惕，这魔法师这么做无异于找死。
樊克诺斯点头：“光从影像上看，的确还算正常，但我觉得公爵似乎有点不正常，他突然比以前强势了很多。”
“怎么个强势法？” 林克相信樊克诺斯不会因为一个模糊的感觉就来找他，他必然是有证据的。
樊克诺斯看着窗外，经历过北方决战，他那张俊脸比以前沧桑了许多，鬓间还多了几缕白发，他的眉头微微皱起，沉声道：“您走之后不久，公爵大人就搞了一个净化行动，他组建了一个督军队，彻查每一个战士的一切，包括其过往的一切。 对魔法师，督军队则要求他们公布自己的魔法笔记。
说到这里，樊克诺斯转头看向林克：“我见到一个军官因为收藏了一个恶魔尖牙被推上了绞刑架。 我还见过一个战士觉得好玩用木头雕了一个魅魔雕像被斩首，刚才那个被杀的魔法师，他研究的所谓黑魔法是4级的灵魂之眼，这仅仅只是侦测魔法啊，他攻击战士，是因为那两个战士当众撕毁了他的魔法笔记，并出言侮辱。 。
林克听的有些皱眉，这的确过份了，他问道：“有人劝过他吗？”
“东谷魔法学院的院长安东尼来过，他劝了几句，但最终两人不欢而散，事后，公爵收敛了几天，但很快他又开始了。”
“莱恩国王知道这事吗？” 林克问。
“知道，国王写了几封信过去，但你知道的，温泉城被毁了，国王权威有点。 。
林克最后又问道：“刨除这些事，阿贝尔公爵在要塞防务上的表现如何？”
“比以前强势了很多，成果也多了很多。 黑森林里，每天都有30个以上的恶魔被猎杀，暗精灵更多，一开始每天都在100以上，现在奥瑞达要塞以北200里内已经找不到暗精灵了。 甚至有一次，卡诺修还杀了一个8级大恶魔，他被公爵大大奖赏了一番，现在，卡诺修已经是第一军团的统帅了。”
这也是事实，樊克诺斯都是如实报告。
“这样啊。” 林克陷入沉默。
普通人或许只能看到阿贝尔公爵很残暴、很过分，比如樊克诺斯就觉得无法接受，但在林克这样的上位者眼中却并不是这样，公爵的确干的过分了一些，但他忠实了履行了自己的职责。
阿贝尔公爵的主要任务是防御北方黑森林的恶魔和暗精灵，现在他干的不坏，那肯定就不能因为这么一个净化行动而过份苛责他。
更重要的是，林克只是菲尔德的领主，这事压根轮不到他来管。
至于写信劝说，或者当面去要求，那更是毫无意义，莱恩国王和大魔法师安东尼已经这么做了，他再去做，恐怕只会让对方心生厌烦，反而会起到反效果。
但是，这事也不能完全无视，现在的阿贝尔公爵可能是受到了大战的刺激，性情有些变化，从现在情况看，他极有可能走上极端，这也不是好事。
想了想，林克觉得他现在最明智的做法是静观其变。
他先拿出一块瑟银，一小块黑昆石，然后使用附魔术，大约10分钟后，他将这两材料变成了一块符文石，为之充入龙力后，他将这符文石递给樊克诺斯：“这事我不太好插手，你拿着这符文石回北方，继续观察，如果有什么异变，就赶紧回来通知我。 如果遇到危险，激活符文石，你能够借它完成一次2千米距离的短距传送。”
樊克诺斯仔细收好符文石，他似乎还想说什么，但又不大好意思，欲言又止。
“你想说什么，直接说吧。” 樊克诺斯叹口气：“其实我这次出来就没想回去，现在神器已经没了，暗精灵也被打败了，我不太想呆在军队了，那里实在太压抑了。 我就是想跟你说这个消息，然后我就继续去大陆各处冒险了。”
林克听的无语：“原来你是逃兵？”
好嘛，这家伙早不说，骗了他一颗符文石才说出来，真是狡诈！ 樊克诺斯顿时有些戒备：“。
。 您不会押我回要塞吧？”
真要押他回去，逃兵的待遇就是斩首。 林克摇头：“那倒不会，既然你不想回去了，那我会另派人去北方监视。 。
林克心中一动，继续问：“哦，我记得你第一次找我就是要找我去什么什么矮人先王之冢，你的那几个同伴现在怎么样了？”
“情况不太好，牧师小姐还活着，其他都战死了。 实际上，她也已经跟我一起南下了。
林克现在可是传奇高手，这样的大人物怎么可能跟他一起去盗墓，樊克诺斯早就把之前的念想抛到脑后去了。
林克摇头，笑道：“不不不，我当然不去了，菲尔德领地的事务就够我忙的了。 不过如果你去的话，我倒是想要委托你帮我找一些东西。
不会白找，我有重金奖赏。” 樊克诺斯眼睛顿时一亮：“我不要钱，我只要魔法装备！ 只要您给我魔法装备，您让我去偷红龙女王的内衣都都干！”
林克拿出一枚约古递过去：“我就要这样的石头，你找到多少就给我多少，还有，在寻找过程中，你可能会碰到一些同样寻找这些石头的龙族成员，你不要和他们发生冲突，把这个东西拿给他们，他们就会把这个约古让给你。”
林克拿出了一片银黑色龙鳞给樊克诺斯，这是他在龙族的身份证明。
“我明白了。” 樊克诺斯细细把玩着龙鳞，很好奇这东西的材质。
“至于奖励，如果你能给我凑足100枚约古，我就给你打造一把传奇品质的。
林克还没说完，樊克诺斯就点头：“一把传奇匕首是吧？ 行了，我干了，呃~我那个牧师朋友有没有奖赏？”
“可以有。 到时候你领她过来，她也能得到一件魔法装备。” “那没问题了。
这东西我拿着了，到时候，我肯定会给你带回101枚。”
“不，越多越好，100枚一件装备，一直有效。”
樊克诺斯长呼口气：“噢，您真是一个掌控人心的大恶魔，这回我又要拼命了。”
到现在，樊克诺斯这件事就说定了，这家伙目前身无分文，他又不想去偷钱，于是又腆着脸和林克要了一袋子金币，这才满意地走了。
林克则回到自己大厅，正想休息一会儿呢，结果露西又找来了。
“领主，抗魔黏土矿要挖光了，城政厅快没钱了。”
露西将一本账本摊道林克跟前，林克一看，上面红红的一片，全是赤字，完全是入不敷出的节奏。 (未完待续。

Chapter 456: There’s Something Wrong with the Iron Duke Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Skinorse had dressed himself up so extravagantly that anyone else would have a hard time recognizing him. Link figured that he had something important to talk about.
Link calmly flicked a finger at Skinorse, sending a speck of light flying towards him. Traceless Invisibility.
Skinorse instantly vanished on the spot. Link gestured at him to enter into the magic tower with him. He could sense the light stirring of air as Skinorse followed him from behind.
The number of students on the first floor of the Mage Tower had increased to around eighty. As soon as he stepped through the door, the students noticed him immediately, and everyone stood at attention before him in a flurry.
Before, Link had not been used to such courteous treatment; now, he did not mind it as much. He greeted the young students with a wave of his hand before striding off towards the higher levels of the Mage Tower.
When they finally reached the attic at the top of the tower, Link snapped his fingers, removing the invisibility spell from Skinorse's body.
The attic was cluttered with all kinds of everyday objects. Leaning on something wrapped in fur, Link waited until Skinorse had entered the room, then proceeded to cast a soundproof spell on the door.
"All right, you can talk."
Skinorse handed a Memory Crystal to Link. "Lord Link, you'd better take a look at this."
Link took the crystal from him. Upon activating it, an indistinct image was projected into the air. From the low angle the image was taken at, it was evident that the user of the Memory Crystal was exercising great caution while using it in a crowded area.
The backs of a group of soldiers could be seen in the image. Then, a voice spoke out. "This Magician was practising black magic. When he was found out, not only did he refuse to make public the contents of his magic, he even assaulted the investigators, severely injuring two warriors in the process. He must be an agent of the dark forces!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a terrible thud. Though the image did not show what had made the sound, Link was familiar enough with it to know that someone had been decapitated.
"That voice, was it Duke Abel?"
"Yes, it was him."
In the image, when the deed was done, the surrounding soldiers began to scatter from the place. The Magician who had been hiding in the crowd gave the execution grounds one last sweep with the Memory Crystal before putting it away.
At this point, Link paused the image.
On the execution ground lay four headless corpses, which meant that three other people had been executed before the Magician. Duke Abel and a few other generals sat on a high bench in the distance, stern expressions on their faces.
Looking at this, Link deactivated the Memory Crystal and told Skinorse, "The army was handing out executions to those guilty of insubordination. I don't think that's important enough to bring it to me."
The voice from the Memory Crystal had already stated the reasons for the execution clearly: illegal practice of black magic and assault on one's fellow officers. After the Orida Fortress' confrontation with the Dark Army, they had been on high alert for any sign of black magic. What this Magician did was no different from suicide.
Skinorse nodded. "Purely based on what you've seen from the image, it may seem normal. But I feel that the duke himself has been a bit aggressive as of late."
"What do you mean?" Link knew that Skinorse would not have come to him with just a hunch; he must have had concrete evidence with him.
Skinorse gazed out the window. After the confrontation in the north, his handsome face had wizened a great deal, and there were a few more tufts of white hair growing out of his temples. He frowned and said in a gravelly voice, "Not long after you left, the duke began a purge of the army through a special unit that was tasked with carrying out investigations on every warrior, including their backgrounds. As for Magicians, they were required to make public the findings of their research on magic. This doesn't seem like much at first thought, but after a month into the operation, they began taking a more excessive approach, to the point that there was no turning back."
Skinorse turned to look at Link. "I once saw an officer who was hung on the gallows just because he had a demon fang in his possession. There was even a warrior who thought it would be fun to carve a wooden statue of a succubus and was then beheaded for it. The Magician that was executed in the image, the 'black magic' that he was practicing was a Level-4 Eye of the Soul spell, a practically harmless detection spell, and the reason he assaulted those warriors was because they had torn up his research in front of him. It's as if the duke has already gone off the deep end. He's basically mad at this point."
Link furrowed his brows at this. This did indeed seem a bit excessive. He asked, "Has anyone approached him about this?"
"The dean of the East Cove Magic Academy went over to exchange words with him, but they still parted with ill will. The duke remained quiet for a few days, but resumed his inquisition not long after."
"Does King Leon know about this?" asked Link.
"Yes, he does. The king has written a few letters to him, but you know, after the destruction of Hot Spring City, the king's authority has been at an all-time low.The duke didn't seem too concerned about him," Skinorse replied.
Finally, Link asked, "Barring all those things, how is Duke Abel faring in the affairs of defense lately?"
"Though far more aggressive than before, he has also been very productive in that regard. More than thirty demons are being exterminated every day in the Black Forest. At first, we were even killing more than 100 Dark Elves almost every day; now, we can't even find a single Dark Elf within the area 200 miles north of Orida Fortress. There was also one time Kanorse slayed a Level-8 demon. He was then greatly rewarded by the duke and made leader of the first legion."
All this was truth. Skinorse reported all that he had witnessed to Link without any omission.
"I see." Link fell silent.
To normal people like Skinorse, what Duke Abel had done may have seemed cruel and excessive, but in Link's eyes, the duke had simply been fulfilling his duties, no more, no less.
Duke Abel's primary task had been to defend the fortress from the demons and Dark Elves of the Black Forest. He should not have been reprimanded for doing so well.
More importantly, Link was only a lord of Ferde. These matters had nothing to do with him.
It was also pointless for him to write a letter to the duke or meet him personally at this point, since King Leon and Master Magician Anthony had already done both those things, but to no avail. Any further action from him would probably elicit anger from the duke, maybe even backfiring on Link himself.
However, this was something he could not ignore. Duke Abel may have been traumatised by the great war, and given the current circumstances, he may not have been of sound mind, which was not a good thing.
After thinking about it for a while, Link decided that the wisest course of action for now was to simply wait and see.
He took out a piece of Thorium and a Black Kun rock and began casting an enchantment on both of them. Around ten minutes later, he was able to forge a rune stone out of both materials, then infused his Dragon Power into it. Link handed the rune stone to Skinorse. "This is something I don't think I'm able to intervene in freely. Take the rune stone back north and continue your observations. Report back to me if there are any new advancements. If you find yourself in danger, activate this rune stone to cast a one-time 2,000-feet teleportation spell."
Skinorse accepted the runestone and opened his mouth as if to say something before closing it again.
Skinorse let out a sigh. "As a matter of fact, I do not plan on going back this time. Now that the Divine Gear is gone, and the Dark Elves have been defeated, I do not feel like staying in the army any longer. Things have become too oppressive. I'm only here to bring you this message, then I'll be off to do my own adventuring across the continent."
Link was rendered speechless. "So you're a deserter?"
This fellow sure was cunning, to have the nerve to leave out such an important piece of information and abscond after receiving a rune stone from him!
Skinorse became apprehensive. "You won't force me back to the fortress, will you?"
Link shook his head. "I won't. Since you won't be going back, I'll just have to send for someone else to continue observing things in the north... You said something about going off on an adventure?"
A bit startled by this, Link asked, "Oh, I remember the first time you came to me, you were saying something about looking for the tomb of some late dwarf king. What happened to your other companions?"
"They didn't fare too well. The priestess is still alive, though the others fell in battle. Truth be told, she's coming with me down south. How about it, do you still want to come along with us?"
Link was now a Legendary master. Why would he lower himself to robbing graves with him?
Link shook his head, smiling. "No, I can't. I'm still busy with the affairs of Ferde. But if you're going, I do have a few things I would like you to find for me. You'll be handsomely compensated for your troubles."
Skinorse's eyes lit up. "I don't want money, I deal only in magical equipment! I'll steal even the Red Dragon Queen's underwear for you if you're able to give me some magical gear in exchange!"
Link took out a piece of Jogu and gave it to him. "I want a stone like this one. Find as much as you can in your travels. Also, you may come across some members of the dragon race who are searching for the same kind of stone in your path. Just show this to them, and they'll let you have the stone."
Link then gave Skinorse a piece of silver-black dragon scale, which would serve as proof of his identity among the dragon race.
"I understand." Skinorse toyed with the scale a little, curious about its composition.
"As for your reward, if you're able to give me a hundred Jogus, I'll forge you a piece of Legendary equipment of your own choosing."
Skinorse was already nodding furiously before Link had even finished. "What about a Legendary dagger? Whatever, I'll do it. Er, what about my priestess friend?"
"She will be rewarded as well. You just bring her here, and she'll receive a piece of magical equipment from me, too."
"That won't be a problem. I'll hold onto this scale and bring back 101 Jogus for you before you know it."
"Bring as much as you can. Remember, 100 Jogus for one piece of magical gear."
Skinorse heaved a long sigh. "Oh, you really know how to work someone to the bone."
When all was said and done, Skinorse realized that he had not a single gold coin on him, what with being a thief who didn't steal for gold. He then put aside all sense of shame and asked for a bag of gold coins before leaving the room with an air of satisfaction.
Link returned to his quarters and rested for a bit. It wasn't long before Lucy barged into the room.
"My lord, our anti-magic soil mines have been dug empty, and the city hall is almost out of money."
Lucy spread an account book out in front of Link, who saw that everything was in red. They had been running a deficit for a long while.

"value": "Chapter 300: Seven Years Ago?\nChapter 300: Seven Years Ago?\nThere was a loud 'boom' — due to the collision this time, the intermediate mecha was sent flying back. Meanwhile, Ling Xiao's body actually wavered slightly as well due to the astounding power behind this stomping art.\n\"This is no ordinary stomping art ...\" Ling Xiao was stunned. Could it be that his daughter had added some special technique into this stomping art?\n\"Ah ah ah, he's going to hit the wall!\" Despite being extremely dissatisfied with how the intermediate mecha was using basic assessment moves to fight, when he saw the other leave his mecha alone to let it just hurtle towards a wall at high speed, Zhao Jun was instantly yelling out in concern.\nOnly Ling Xiao and Li Lanfeng had a gleam of light run through their eyes at the same time, though the meaning behind each gleam was vastly different.\nLing Xiao believed his daughter was not that weak — he believed that his daughter would not really crash into the wall. On the other hand, the name of a skill which belonged solely to the rabbit mecha he knew had floated into Li Lanfeng's mind: 'Rabbit Sky Leap!' . Oftentimes when it had seemed like the situation was completely out of control at high speeds, the rabbit mecha would use this move to turn things around.\nSure enough, just as the intermediate mecha was about to slam into the wall, Ling Lan, who had long been prepared, operated the mecha's two strong and powerful legs to kick out forcefully at the wall. There was a loud 'boom', and the entire room suddenly began to shake violently, almost sending the spectating Zhao Jun's and Li Lanfeng's mecha tumbling off their feet.\nZhao Jun and Li Lanfeng reacted quickly to steady their mecha. Once they were stable once more, they turned their eyes towards the stage again and saw the intermediate mecha zipping around like lightning back and forth across the private room.\nClang! Clang! Clang! Clang! ... the powerful sounds of collision reverberated like the wild rain of a thunderstorm within the combat room. The two mecha sparred — one as quick as lightning, its movements almost untrackable, while the other was as steady as Mount Tai 1 , taking moves as they came, unmoving as a mountain 2 .\n\"This is just the stomp technique, countless applications of the stomp technique ...\" Zhao Jun peered closely for several 10 or so seconds, then felt his eyes were somewhat raw, with even a trace of pain. He could not help but raise his hands to rub at his eyes. It turned out that the speed of the intermediate mecha had already exceeded the capacity of Zhao Jun's motion vision — having stared intently at the screen all this time, he was now feeling rather overwhelmed.\n\"Yes, it's the stomp technique ...\" But this was no ordinary stomp technique, otherwise that imperial mecha would not have surreptitiously shifted its original stance. In contrast to Zhao Jun's carelessness, the conscientious Li Lanfeng had caught the shift. The imperial mecha, who had initially been standing straight with its legs together, had now spread its legs, and its knees were slightly bent. This was the specific stance of a mecha stabilising its lower body. It was clear to see that the intermediate mecha's stomp technique was dealing significant impact to the imperial operator, causing the other to have no choice but to use this most stable stance while defending.\nAnd the only one who could utilise the stomp technique so proficiently, in Li Lanfeng's memory, was the rabbit mecha and no other. Could it be that the rabbit he had searched for in these 7 long years was this intermediate mecha warrior before his eyes right now? 3 But based on the rabbit mecha's strength, he should not have remained stuck at intermediate mecha level ... One question in Li Lanfeng's heart seemed to have been answered now, but this answer merely spawned even more questions ...\nJust as Zhao Jun was kneading at his eyes and while Li Lanfeng was plagued with questions, the intermediate mecha, who had been moving at high speeds all this while, suddenly dropped to land at a corner of the stage after one more violent clash with the imperial mecha. Due to its sudden stop from a high speed, the mecha was sent sliding forwards 5 metres or so before it found firm footing.\nPerhaps extremely used to this type of abrupt stop from high speeds, though the intermediate mecha slid for about 5 metres, its upper body did not waver at all. This proved that this amount of slide was within the intermediate mecha's calculations.\nLi Lanfeng and Zhao Jun shared a look, unsure why the intermediate mecha had suddenly chosen to stop its attack when the situation was looking so optimistic. An idea sparked through Li Lanfeng's mind. He remembered the rabbit mecha saying once that this type of high-speed stomping actually put a great burden on mecha. Trainee mecha would not be able to withstand it for long — could it be that it was the same for intermediate mecha?\nSeeing this, Ling Xiao stood up from his defensive stance and said to Ling Lan with a smile, \"Looks like you understand now.\"\n\"Yes, thank you, father, for your guidance,\" replied Ling Lan gratefully. That combination of moves she had just performed was so familiar to her they were embedded in her marrow — it was no effort at all to execute, perhaps even casual and easy.\nStill, whether in terms of speed or attack power, that set of moves had not been any weaker than any of the other advanced techniques she had used previously. In fact, they could even be considered better, because she still had energy to spare in her controls, unlike before when even as she drained herself, her mecha was forced to operate over its capacity, damaging its lifespan.\nThis also made Ling Lan realise on a profound level what Ling Xiao's words meant. Having understood, she stopped her attack, because she had already obtained what she wanted from this instructional fight. Mission complete, it would be a waste of time to continue fighting.\nLing Lan's words made Ling Xiao's smile deepen. Ling Xiao knew very well that Ling Lan had achieved true understanding, once again proving that his daughter's learning ability was absolutely superior to others'.\n\"Your stomp technique should have been integrated with some other special technique. How did you think of it?\" Ling Xiao was extremely curious. Mind you, those who had only begun to learn mecha control would just rotely follow instructions to complete the training exercises. Normally, they would never even think of combining or improvising on any of these controls ... Ling Lan's ability to do so undoubtedly surprised Ling Xiao greatly, because even he had not been able to do so when he had been younger.\n\"By coincidence. Back when I first started learning mecha control, I met someone else who had also just begun learning mecha control. The other was a control genius, able to execute each move to utter perfection. His results were very good; I was no match for him at first. This made me determined. Things he could do, what was stopping me from doing them too? So I thought hard on how to increase my mecha's speed, and worked hard to perfect my transitions between all types of actions. Without knowing it, I applied a leg technique from physical skills to my mecha control, and discovered that it actually produced a certain effect. And so, I began to experiment ...\" Hiding part of the truth, Ling Lan told her father the story of her meeting with the leopard mecha 4 back then ...\nAs Ling Lan was telling the story, she realised that a large part of her proficiency with the basic assessment controls should definitely be credited to the leopard mecha. The other's companionship had undoubtedly made that dry and routine training time of her life become considerably more interesting. Upon closer examination, of all the basic controls Ling Lan knew now, this set of basic assessment controls was the one Ling Lan was most adept and comfortable with. This was why when Ling Xiao had insisted for Ling Lan to use basic controls, she had chosen this set without thinking. Reality proved that this was the set that had seeped into her bones, the set which had become part of her basic instinct, the set of basic controls that she had truly mastered.\nUnderstanding all this, Ling Xiao prepared to go offline. Although he did not care much about the enlistment assessment results of the military academy, as the head of the division's assessment delegation, he should still at least show his face and ask cursorily about the results at the end of every day. Otherwise, the administrators of the school might misunderstand and assume that the 23rd Division did not care at all about the First Men's Military Academy ... In order to successfully accept his daughter into the 23rd Division later on, he needed to maintain a good relationship with the school no matter what.\nAfter saying goodbye to his daughter, Ling Xiao instantly logged off from the private room. The next time he went online, his mecha would automatically appear within the main hall of the mecha combat hall. If Ling Lan required instruction again later, he would not have to spend the effort finding his way here anymore ...\nSeeing the imperial mecha vanish, Li Lanfeng knew the pair was about to leave. Impulsively, he rushed forwards and connected to his general comms to say, \"Hello, can you please wait a moment?\"\nLing Lan was just about to go offline — hearing this, she paused and raised her head to look towards the advanced mecha who had spoken.\nSeeing the intermediate mecha looking at him silently, Li Lanfeng hesitated for a moment, but then asked resolutely (because he did not want to miss another chance), \"May I ask, 7 years ago, were you at the capital city of planet Azure?\"\n\"Planet Azure? The capital city?\" Ling Lan's face was filled with confusion. Seven years ago, she had indeed let Little Four secretly bring her out into the virtual world, but back then, the place she had asked Little Four to bring her to had been the capital city of Doha!\n\"Uh, Boss ... I forgot to tell you. Back when you asked me to take you to the capital, I accidentally chose planet Azure ...\" Little Four, who had been drawn out by the advanced mecha warrior's question, revealed his blunder to Ling Lan.\nAt these words, Ling Lan instantly had her guard up. \"How could he know that I was at planet Azure 7 years ago? Could it be that I was exposed somewhere?\"\nLittle Four became agitated by this supposition — that's right, back then, he and Boss had been undercover, so how could someone else have discovered this? Little Four quickly scanned the other's spiritual power ...\n\"Hmm?\" Li Lanfeng frowned lightly. He had sensed some strange disturbance in his surroundings, but could not say for certain what it was. Cautious and vigilant, he immediately wrapped up his spiritual power with his spectre ability. Regardless of whether he was being paranoid, Li Lanfeng's first reflex was still to choose and protect himself.\n\"Ah ... what a familiar energy signature!\" Little Four sensed Li Lanfeng's spectre power and instantly exclaimed in shock. He swiftly dashed back into Ling Lan's mindspace and rummaged through his memory bank of energy signatures, comparing them to the energy he had sensed. Soon, he had dug up the long-buried information of the leopard mecha, that is, the spectre whom they had met back then.\n\"Boss, we've bumped into an old acquaintance!\" replied Little Four excitedly. Because Ling Lan had forbidden him from taking the initiative to venture out and test the spiritual power of others, Little Four had not noticed anything before this even though Li Lanfeng had already been standing there for a long while. Of course, this was also because Little Four had been busy helping Ling Lan control her mecha at the time, with no mind to spare.\n\"Who?\" asked Ling Lan, brow lifted in curiosity.\n\"It's that leopard mecha! That spectre who watched the mecha fight with us!\" Little Four responded enthusiastically.\n\"So it's him ...\" Ling Lan was floored. She had just been telling her father about him, and now he actually showed up? It appeared that she and this leopard were truly tied by fate."

第三百零二章 七年前？
第三百零二章：七年前？
“嘭”的一声巨响，中级机甲因为这一次的碰撞，一个倒飞出去，而凌霄也因为这踩踏术的惊人力量，竟然身体微微摇晃了一下。
“这不是简单的踩踏术……”凌霄惊讶了，难道自家女儿在踩踏术中添加了一些特别的技能？
“啊啊啊，他要撞墙了！” 尽管对中级机甲运用基础考核动作来应战让赵竣十分不满，可看见对方放任机甲，以这种高速撞向墙面，赵竣顿时担忧地惊呼起来。
唯有凌霄与李蘭枫两人，眼神同时一闪，但包含的内容却完全不一样。
凌霄认为他的女儿没那么弱，他相信自己的女儿不可能真的撞上墙面，而李蘭枫在心中则浮现了一个只属于兔子的技能：“兔天蹬！” 往往在高速看起来仿佛无法控制的时候，兔子机甲都会用这一招一举扭转局面。
果然，中级机甲即将砸中墙壁的时候，早就做好准备的凌蘭，操控着机甲两支强壮有力的大腿，狠狠地蹬向了墙壁，就听到“嘭”的一声巨响，整个房间突然剧烈晃动起来，差点将旁观的赵竣与李蘭枫两架机甲直接震翻。
赵竣与李蘭枫反应极快，迅速将机甲控制站稳，当他们做好这一切再定睛看向擂台，却见中级机甲正在密室中如电闪一般来回穿梭。
呯！ ……机甲激烈的碰撞声如狂风暴雨般在整件格斗密室炸响，只见两架机甲，一个快如闪电，几乎看不清他的运动轨迹。 而另一个却竖立在擂台之中，稳若泰山，见招应招不动如山。
“嗯，是踩踏术……。” 可这不是简单的践踏术，否则那架王级机甲也不会悄然改变站立姿势，面对赵竣的粗心大意，细心的李蘭枫还是看到了，原本并腿站立笔的王级机甲。
此时机甲双腿分开了，并且膝盖微微弯曲，这是机甲稳定下身的专用姿势。 可见中级机甲的践踏术，给王级师士带来的冲击力是极大的，让对方不得不用最安稳的姿势进行防御。
而能将这种强力踩踏术运用的如此娴熟的。 在李蘭枫的记忆中，只有兔子机甲可以。 难道他寻找七年之久的兔子，就是眼前这位中级机甲士吗？
可凭兔子机甲的实力，不可能只停留在中级机甲啊。 正当赵竣狂揉眼睛，李蘭枫疑惑重重的时候，一直处于高速运动的中级机甲突然在与王级机甲再一次剧烈碰撞后。 便落到了擂台一角，因为高速急停的原因，机甲硬生生地向前滑动了五米左右，这才站稳了。
或许十分习惯这种高速急停的运动，中级机甲尽管滑动了五米之多，可上身却不见丝毫晃动。 由此可以证明，这些滑动数据是在中级机甲的计算之中。
李蘭枫心神一动，他想起兔子机甲曾说过。 这种高速践踏方式，对机甲的负荷是极大，实习机甲是支持不住多少时间的，难道中级机甲同样不能？
“看起来你已经明白了。” 凌霄见状，便收回防御姿势，一脸笑意地对凌蘭说道。
“是的，多谢父亲指点。” 凌蘭感激地回道，她刚刚那一套动作，熟悉到融入了她的骨髓，操控起来一点都不觉得吃力，甚至极为随意。
可不管从速度上，还是攻击力量上，并不比她用那些高级技能来的差，甚至还要高上一筹，因为她的操控还有余力，而不是像刚才那样，自己竭尽全力的同时，也让机甲高负荷高强度的运转，损伤了机甲的使用寿命。
这也让凌蘭深刻领悟到凌霄说的那句话的意义所在，已经明了的她便终止了攻击，因为这场指导战得到了她想要的，完成了它的使命，继续战斗下去，也是浪费时间。
凌蘭的话让凌霄笑意更浓，凌霄很清楚，凌蘭是真的明白了，再次证明，自家女儿的领悟力绝对是超人一等的。
“你的践踏术，应该加入了一些特殊技能，你怎么会想到这一点的？” 凌霄极为好奇，要知道刚开始学习机甲操控的，只会很死板的将操控学习完成，根本不会考虑将这些操控进行融合，凌蘭能做到这一点，无疑让凌霄极为惊讶的，因为当初他也没有做到。
“因缘巧合，当初刚学机甲操控的时候，认识了一个同样刚学机甲操控的人，对方是一个操控天才，每一种动作都做到淋漓尽致，他的成绩很好，一开始我根本比不上。 这让我很不服气，他能做到的事情，凭什么我就做不到呢？
对方的陪伴，无疑让这段枯燥的练习时光，变得有趣许多。 细想起来，凌蘭目前掌握的所有基础操控，唯有这段基础考核操控，是凌蘭练的最好最得心应手的，这也是凌霄让凌蘭使用基础操控时，她想都没想就选择了这个，事实证明，这才是她融入骨髓，成为她本能的真正掌握的基础操控。
了解了这一切之后，凌霄便准备下线了，虽然他不怎么关心军校的考核成绩，但作为军团考核带队人，每日考核结束之前，总要冒个头关心一下考核成绩，否则就会被军校高层误会他们二十三军根本不重视第一男子军校……为了将来能顺利地将女儿接到二十三军，怎么地也要跟军校维持良好的关系。
凌霄与自家女儿道别之后，便直接从密室中下线了，等再次再上线，机甲就会自动出现在机甲格斗馆的大厅之中。
李蘭枫看到王级机甲消失了，便明白他们要走了，一个激动，马上上前一步，接通对外通话器道：“您好，能不能请您等一下！”
凌蘭正准确下线，听到这一句话，便暂停了动作，抬头看向那架出声的高级机甲。
看着中级机甲沉默地注视自己，李蘭枫迟疑了一下，但还是坚定地问了出来，因为他不想再错过一次机会：“请问，你七年前，有没有去过虚拟世界的蔚蓝星京都城？”
京都城？” 凌蘭一脸迷惑，七年前她的确让小四偷偷带她上过虚拟世界，可当时让小四带她去的是多哈星的京都城啊。
“啊，老大……我忘了告诉你，当初你让我去京都城，我不小心选择了蔚蓝星……”被高级机甲士的话吸引过来的小四，果然将当初的乌龙告诉了凌蘭。
凌蘭闻言，顿时警惕起来：“他怎么知道我七年前去过蔚蓝星？ 难道我在什么地方露过破绽了？”
小四一听，跟着紧张起来，是啊，当时他跟老大是偷偷上的，怎么会被人发现呢？
“嗯？” 李蘭枫微微皱了皱眉，他感觉周围有些异样，可又说不出个所以然来，谨慎地他，直接用虚能力包裹自己的精神力。 不管是不是他多心，李蘭枫第一时间还是选择保护自己。
“啊……好熟悉的能量！” 小四感觉到李蘭枫的虚能量，顿时惊呼了一声，迅速窜回了凌蘭的意识海，他赶紧翻阅记忆库中的能量信息，比对刚才的能量源，很快就将深藏已经得豹子机甲给挖了出来，也就是当初那个他们碰到的虚能力者。
小四激动地回道。 因为凌蘭禁止他主动窥探对方的精神力，所以李蘭枫站在这里许久，小四并没有发现什么，当然也因为小四当时正专心协助凌蘭操控机甲，无暇分心的缘故。
“谁？” 凌蘭好奇挑眉道。
“就是那个豹子机甲啊，和我们一起观看机甲格斗的那个虚能力者啊。”
小四亢奋地回道。 “是他……”凌蘭愕然，刚刚还跟父亲说起他，没想到他竟然这么出现了？ 看来她与这只豹子还真有缘分。

Chapter 300: Seven Years Ago?
Chapter 300: Seven Years Ago?
There was a loud 'boom' — due to the collision this time, the intermediate mecha was sent flying back. Meanwhile, Ling Xiao's body actually wavered slightly as well due to the astounding power behind this stomping art.
"This is no ordinary stomping art ..." Ling Xiao was stunned. Could it be that his daughter had added some special technique into this stomping art?
"Ah ah ah, he's going to hit the wall!" Despite being extremely dissatisfied with how the intermediate mecha was using basic assessment moves to fight, when he saw the other leave his mecha alone to let it just hurtle towards a wall at high speed, Zhao Jun was instantly yelling out in concern.
Only Ling Xiao and Li Lanfeng had a gleam of light run through their eyes at the same time, though the meaning behind each gleam was vastly different.
Ling Xiao believed his daughter was not that weak — he believed that his daughter would not really crash into the wall. On the other hand, the name of a skill which belonged solely to the rabbit mecha he knew had floated into Li Lanfeng's mind: 'Rabbit Sky Leap!' . Oftentimes when it had seemed like the situation was completely out of control at high speeds, the rabbit mecha would use this move to turn things around.
Sure enough, just as the intermediate mecha was about to slam into the wall, Ling Lan, who had long been prepared, operated the mecha's two strong and powerful legs to kick out forcefully at the wall. There was a loud 'boom', and the entire room suddenly began to shake violently, almost sending the spectating Zhao Jun's and Li Lanfeng's mecha tumbling off their feet.
Zhao Jun and Li Lanfeng reacted quickly to steady their mecha. Once they were stable once more, they turned their eyes towards the stage again and saw the intermediate mecha zipping around like lightning back and forth across the private room.
Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! ... the powerful sounds of collision reverberated like the wild rain of a thunderstorm within the combat room. The two mecha sparred — one as quick as lightning, its movements almost untrackable, while the other was as steady as Mount Tai 1 , taking moves as they came, unmoving as a mountain 2 .
"This is just the stomp technique, countless applications of the stomp technique ..." Zhao Jun peered closely for several 10 or so seconds, then felt his eyes were somewhat raw, with even a trace of pain. He could not help but raise his hands to rub at his eyes. It turned out that the speed of the intermediate mecha had already exceeded the capacity of Zhao Jun's motion vision — having stared intently at the screen all this time, he was now feeling rather overwhelmed.
"Yes, it's the stomp technique ..." But this was no ordinary stomp technique, otherwise that imperial mecha would not have surreptitiously shifted its original stance. In contrast to Zhao Jun's carelessness, the conscientious Li Lanfeng had caught the shift. The imperial mecha, who had initially been standing straight with its legs together, had now spread its legs, and its knees were slightly bent. This was the specific stance of a mecha stabilising its lower body. It was clear to see that the intermediate mecha's stomp technique was dealing significant impact to the imperial operator, causing the other to have no choice but to use this most stable stance while defending.
And the only one who could utilise the stomp technique so proficiently, in Li Lanfeng's memory, was the rabbit mecha and no other. Could it be that the rabbit he had searched for in these 7 long years was this intermediate mecha warrior before his eyes right now? 3 But based on the rabbit mecha's strength, he should not have remained stuck at intermediate mecha level ... One question in Li Lanfeng's heart seemed to have been answered now, but this answer merely spawned even more questions ...
Just as Zhao Jun was kneading at his eyes and while Li Lanfeng was plagued with questions, the intermediate mecha, who had been moving at high speeds all this while, suddenly dropped to land at a corner of the stage after one more violent clash with the imperial mecha. Due to its sudden stop from a high speed, the mecha was sent sliding forwards 5 metres or so before it found firm footing.
Perhaps extremely used to this type of abrupt stop from high speeds, though the intermediate mecha slid for about 5 metres, its upper body did not waver at all. This proved that this amount of slide was within the intermediate mecha's calculations.
Li Lanfeng and Zhao Jun shared a look, unsure why the intermediate mecha had suddenly chosen to stop its attack when the situation was looking so optimistic. An idea sparked through Li Lanfeng's mind. He remembered the rabbit mecha saying once that this type of high-speed stomping actually put a great burden on mecha. Trainee mecha would not be able to withstand it for long — could it be that it was the same for intermediate mecha?
Seeing this, Ling Xiao stood up from his defensive stance and said to Ling Lan with a smile, "Looks like you understand now."
"Yes, thank you, father, for your guidance," replied Ling Lan gratefully. That combination of moves she had just performed was so familiar to her they were embedded in her marrow — it was no effort at all to execute, perhaps even casual and easy.
Still, whether in terms of speed or attack power, that set of moves had not been any weaker than any of the other advanced techniques she had used previously. In fact, they could even be considered better, because she still had energy to spare in her controls, unlike before when even as she drained herself, her mecha was forced to operate over its capacity, damaging its lifespan.
This also made Ling Lan realise on a profound level what Ling Xiao's words meant. Having understood, she stopped her attack, because she had already obtained what she wanted from this instructional fight. Mission complete, it would be a waste of time to continue fighting.
Ling Lan's words made Ling Xiao's smile deepen. Ling Xiao knew very well that Ling Lan had achieved true understanding, once again proving that his daughter's learning ability was absolutely superior to others'.
"Your stomp technique should have been integrated with some other special technique. How did you think of it?" Ling Xiao was extremely curious. Mind you, those who had only begun to learn mecha control would just rotely follow instructions to complete the training exercises. Normally, they would never even think of combining or improvising on any of these controls ... Ling Lan's ability to do so undoubtedly surprised Ling Xiao greatly, because even he had not been able to do so when he had been younger.
"By coincidence. Back when I first started learning mecha control, I met someone else who had also just begun learning mecha control. The other was a control genius, able to execute each move to utter perfection. His results were very good; I was no match for him at first. This made me determined. Things he could do, what was stopping me from doing them too? So I thought hard on how to increase my mecha's speed, and worked hard to perfect my transitions between all types of actions. Without knowing it, I applied a leg technique from physical skills to my mecha control, and discovered that it actually produced a certain effect. And so, I began to experiment ..." Hiding part of the truth, Ling Lan told her father the story of her meeting with the leopard mecha 4 back then ...
As Ling Lan was telling the story, she realised that a large part of her proficiency with the basic assessment controls should definitely be credited to the leopard mecha. The other's companionship had undoubtedly made that dry and routine training time of her life become considerably more interesting. Upon closer examination, of all the basic controls Ling Lan knew now, this set of basic assessment controls was the one Ling Lan was most adept and comfortable with. This was why when Ling Xiao had insisted for Ling Lan to use basic controls, she had chosen this set without thinking. Reality proved that this was the set that had seeped into her bones, the set which had become part of her basic instinct, the set of basic controls that she had truly mastered.
Understanding all this, Ling Xiao prepared to go offline. Although he did not care much about the enlistment assessment results of the military academy, as the head of the division's assessment delegation, he should still at least show his face and ask cursorily about the results at the end of every day. Otherwise, the administrators of the school might misunderstand and assume that the 23rd Division did not care at all about the First Men's Military Academy ... In order to successfully accept his daughter into the 23rd Division later on, he needed to maintain a good relationship with the school no matter what.
After saying goodbye to his daughter, Ling Xiao instantly logged off from the private room. The next time he went online, his mecha would automatically appear within the main hall of the mecha combat hall. If Ling Lan required instruction again later, he would not have to spend the effort finding his way here anymore ...
Seeing the imperial mecha vanish, Li Lanfeng knew the pair was about to leave. Impulsively, he rushed forwards and connected to his general comms to say, "Hello, can you please wait a moment?"
Ling Lan was just about to go offline — hearing this, she paused and raised her head to look towards the advanced mecha who had spoken.
Seeing the intermediate mecha looking at him silently, Li Lanfeng hesitated for a moment, but then asked resolutely (because he did not want to miss another chance), "May I ask, 7 years ago, were you at the capital city of planet Azure?"
"Planet Azure? The capital city?" Ling Lan's face was filled with confusion. Seven years ago, she had indeed let Little Four secretly bring her out into the virtual world, but back then, the place she had asked Little Four to bring her to had been the capital city of Doha!
"Uh, Boss ... I forgot to tell you. Back when you asked me to take you to the capital, I accidentally chose planet Azure ..." Little Four, who had been drawn out by the advanced mecha warrior's question, revealed his blunder to Ling Lan.
At these words, Ling Lan instantly had her guard up. "How could he know that I was at planet Azure 7 years ago? Could it be that I was exposed somewhere?"
Little Four became agitated by this supposition — that's right, back then, he and Boss had been undercover, so how could someone else have discovered this? Little Four quickly scanned the other's spiritual power ...
"Hmm?" Li Lanfeng frowned lightly. He had sensed some strange disturbance in his surroundings, but could not say for certain what it was. Cautious and vigilant, he immediately wrapped up his spiritual power with his spectre ability. Regardless of whether he was being paranoid, Li Lanfeng's first reflex was still to choose and protect himself.
"Ah ... what a familiar energy signature!" Little Four sensed Li Lanfeng's spectre power and instantly exclaimed in shock. He swiftly dashed back into Ling Lan's mindspace and rummaged through his memory bank of energy signatures, comparing them to the energy he had sensed. Soon, he had dug up the long-buried information of the leopard mecha, that is, the spectre whom they had met back then.
"Boss, we've bumped into an old acquaintance!" replied Little Four excitedly. Because Ling Lan had forbidden him from taking the initiative to venture out and test the spiritual power of others, Little Four had not noticed anything before this even though Li Lanfeng had already been standing there for a long while. Of course, this was also because Little Four had been busy helping Ling Lan control her mecha at the time, with no mind to spare.
"Who?" asked Ling Lan, brow lifted in curiosity.
"It's that leopard mecha! That spectre who watched the mecha fight with us!" Little Four responded enthusiastically.
"So it's him ..." Ling Lan was floored. She had just been telling her father about him, and now he actually showed up? It appeared that she and this leopard were truly tied by fate.

"value": "Chapter 25 – When Experts Join Forces\nThis loud shout by the black-robed man not only frightened Linley and the Arch Magus necromancer, it also startled Lampson and the other three experts of the ninth rank on the second floor.\n“What’s going on? Why is Xartes gone?” Lampson immediately pushed open his door, walking to the second floor corridor and barking angrily.\nAt this time, the other three combatants of the ninth rank came out of their rooms as well.\nWithin Zassler’s room.\nHearing the loud shouts, the look on Zassler’s face changed. He immediately instructed the nearby Linley, “You killed one combatant of the ninth rank, but there are five remaining. I will take care of three of them. You handle the other two. Don’t tell me you aren’t able to do so.”\nZassler was quite confident in his ability to deal with three combatants of the ninth rank.\n“You only need to kill one.” Linley said calmly. At the same time, Linley quietly awaited the opponents to gather outside. When they did so, Bebe and Haeru would ambush them from behind, while he and the Arch Magus necromancer would attack from the front. This pincer attack would make it even harder for their opponents to flee.\nHearing Linley’s words, Zassler couldn’t help but sneer, “You really dare to make all sorts of wild boasts.”\n“Bro!” At this moment, the black-robed man saw the corpse of Xartes. He immediately let out a howl of grief, while also noticing that there were now two men inside the room.\nLike a gust of wind, the four other combatants of the ninth rank descended from the higher floors.\nLampson and the others stared at Zassler, then at Linley. The expressions on their face changed.\n“Hello, everyone. Last time we fought, it wasn’t as fun as it should have been. Let’s play again.” The Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, beamed happily at the five combatants of the ninth rank in front of him.\n“The antimagic shackles are broken.” A silver-haired old expert of the ninth rank said in shock.\nBut Lampson was staring at Linley.\n“Cardinal Lampson. Long time no see.” Linley held his adamantine heavy sword in his hands, his dark gold eyes shooting a cold, merciless glare towards these men.\nAlmost all of the high level combatants of the Radiant Church knew about the terrifying appearance Linley had when transformed. “Linley!”\nLampson’s voice was very low, and his facial expression was dark.\n“You are the Linley who killed six of my comrades?” Xartes’ younger brother, that black-robed man, stared at Linley in disbelief. “How is that possible?”\nThe Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, also stared at Linley in surprise. From the reaction of the Radiant Church’s squad, this ‘Draconian’ who had rescued him apparently was quite formidable. “Oh, your name is Linley? And it seems you are even more famous than me?”\nLinley just stared coldly at the enemies. “Enough talk. Let’s do this.”\n“My men are ready. We can move at any time.” The Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, laughed delightedly. Suddenly, two golden skeletal archers manifested behind him.\nHe had heard that Necromantic Magic possessed the Wraith Call ability, but this was the first time he had seen it in action. These two golden skeletal archers had auras that weren’t the slightest bit weaker than combatants of the ninth rank.\n“Linley, you seem to be quite powerful. Let’s have a little competition and see who kills more.” Zassler laughed delightedly, while at this moment, three powerful, three-meter tall golden-furred zombies appeared at the door. These golden-furred zombies had jade-green eyes.\nTwo golden skeletal archers, and three golden-furred zombies. Each of them had the power of a combatant of the ninth rank.\nCombined, they made up a force of five combatants of the ninth rank!\nLampson looked at Zassler, then looked at Linley. Grinding his teeth, he ordered in a low voice, “Retreat. We leave now!” Lampson truly did not wish to give this order.\nIn order to capture Zassler, they had sacrificed so much.\nBut once they learned the secrets of Necromantic Magic from Zassler, the Radiant Church would totally be capable of secretly raising an entire squad of necromancers.\n“Flee, now! The Undead Dragon is about to arrive!” The two Special Executors, the two Ascetics, and the Cardinal all hurriedly fled from the courtyard.\n“Swish!” “Swish!”\nTwo golden arrows split the air, piercing directly towards the two Ascetics. At the same moment, two black blurs suddenly appeared from outside the courtyard.\n“Lampson. Not one of you will escape.” Linley’s callous voice rang out, while at the same time, Linley charged towards them like a bolt of lightning.\nLinley’s movement speed really was incredibly fast. As a peak-stage ninth rank combatant who had inherited the speed inherent to the Armored Razorback Wyrm, was supported by the Supersonic spell, and also borrowed the ‘imposing force’ of the world…Linley’s speed far surpassed those two Special Executors, to say nothing of the Ascetics and the Cardinal.\n“Roaaaar!”\nThe Blackcloud Panther, Haeru, charged recklessly at one of the Special Executors, clawing and biting at him. Terrified, the Special Executor immediately chopped viciously at the Blackcloud Panther with his sword.\n“Ah!” The Special Executor’s skull was caved in by the panther’s paw, while his sword hadn’t managed to injure Haeru in the slightest.\nIn terms of defense, the Blackcloud Panther was even more formidable than Linley, and only a whisker inferior to Bebe.\nIn terms of defense, the Blackcloud Panther was even more formidable than Linley, and only a whisker inferior to Bebe. “Slash, slash!”\nCatching the Special Executor totally off-guard, Bebe pierced straight through his defense, driving his claws into the man’s chest and ripping the man’s heart out.\nIn the blink of an eye, the two magical beasts had killed two combatants of the ninth rank.\nBebe charged towards the other Ascetic as well.\nThe two Ascetics and Lampson were all truly in states of shock. They specialized in light-style magic, but all magic took time to set up. The spells they could instacast wouldn’t be of use against these two magical beasts.\n“Lampson!”\nLinley let out a loud roar. Wielding his adamantine heavy sword, like a demonic god, he chopped down with his black adamantine heavy sword, causing the very air to vibrate with the force of the blow.\nLampson discovered, to his terror, that the space above him had been totally locked in.\nIn the moment of his death, Lampson thought back to that first time he had encountered Linley. That was the day that the sculpture, ‘Awakening From the Dream’ was being auctioned. At that time, Linley was an optimistic, joyful young genius. But a few years later, Linley had become so frightening. And today, Linley was going to take his life.\n“Bam.” Before Lampson’s unwilling eyes, Linley’s adamantine heavy sword slashed down directly on his body. At this moment, Linley managed to link together some of the scattered insights he had regarding the new level he was trying to attain.\nIt was like the pulse of the world itself.\nThose deep tremors. Those irresistible vibrations. The terrifying force that the adamantine heavy sword was carrying suddenly transformed into a ‘pulse’ like rhythm which entered Lampson’s body.\nLampson’s entire body trembled once, and then he collapsed to the ground. Not a single wound could be seen on Lampson’s body…but blood was flowing from Lampson’s ear and nose.\nIf someone were to cut open Lampson’s skin, they would discover that Lampson’s internal organs had all disintegrated.\nAt this time, Bebe and Haeru finished off the two remaining Ascetics. This killing spree was simply too perfectly formulated. The undead creatures which Zassler had summoned, along with Linley’s fearsome appearance, had actually frightened Lampson’s group so much that they had directly fled, but just as they had reached the walls, they were caught totally off-guard by Bebe and Haeru, these two unspeakably terrifying magical beasts.\nBebe, Haeru, and Linley had killed five combatants of the ninth rank! If they counted the person whom Linley had killed at the beginning, they had killed six.\nRight at this moment, in the middle of the courtyard, the space began to rumble as a dimensional crack appeared. An enormous, black dragon’s head stretched out through the dimensional crack.\nWraith Call – Undead Dragon!\n“But…but…” Zassler stared at Linley, as well as his black Shadowmouse and the Blackcloud Panther, Haeru. He was totally shocked, totally speechless.\nJust now, he had been very arrogant, going so far as to say that he would deal with three of them, if Linley could handle two.\nBut before his undead creatures had killed a single person, Linley and his magical beasts had killed all of the combatants.\n“Mr. Zassler, there’s no need to finish summoning this Undead Dragon, I think. Or did you want to test it out against Bebe, or perhaps Haeru?” Linley said calmly.\nThe leathery face of the Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, twitched. And then, he banished the Undead Dragon back to the plane of undead.\n“Linley, those two magical beasts of yours are indeed rather powerful. But my Undead Dragon isn’t weak either. What’s more, the Undead Dragon isn’t the only creature I possess. I also have an Ancient Wight.” Zassler sneered. “You must understand, so long as the undead realm remains, the army available to a necromancer is endless.”\nLinley truly was frightened by Zassler’s words.\nActually, in his heart, Zassler knew that taming an undead creature in the undead realm was no easy feat. They had to be subdued one at a time, after all. In the past, when he had subdued this Undead Dragon, he had sacrificed many other undead creatures.\n“Let’s hurry up and clean up this courtyard. Don’t let the Radiant Church know what happened here.” Linley said immediately.\nZassler immediately began to issue orders to his undead creatures.\nThose two golden skeletal archers and the three golden-furred zombies very obediently began to dispose of the corpses. They were quite efficient. Very soon, all the corpses had vanished.\n“Linley.” Zassler looked at Linley with interest. “From what Lampson said, it seems you are quite famous. Tell me about yourself?”\nLinley glanced at Zassler. “Shut your mouth. Quiet.”\nSeeing Linley’s absolutely emotionless golden eyes, Zassler began to laugh. “Linley, it seems as though you have quite a large grudge against the Radiant Church, am I right?”\n“So what if I do?” Linley responded this time.\n“What sort of grudge?” Zassler immediately asked.\n“I won’t stop till one of us is destroyed.” Linley’s voice was quiet, but it was like the sinister wind which blew in the undead realm, capable of making one’s soul shudder.\nZassler’s eyes immediately lit up. He excitedly said, “Haha, good. Linley, it seems you have some ability. How about this. You assist me, and together, we will deal with the Radiant Church.”\n“Me, assist you? You be the leader?” Linley looked at Zassler.\nZassler had to admit to himself that he felt just the slightest bit uncomfortable when Linley stared at him with those dark golden eyes.\n“No need to differentiate between who is the lead, and who is not. The two of us will work together.” As a necromancer, Zassler’s close-combat abilities were very poor. In addition, his undead creatures took a certain amount of time to summon.\nLinley’s dark gold eyes stared at Zassler for quite some time.\n“Fine. I accept.” Linley finally spoke. Linley had to admit that joining forces with a necromancer could indeed make him stronger.\nZassler immediately exulted. “Haha, wonderful. With the two of us joining forces, what have we to fear? Heidens, there will come a day when I kill you, you old bastard. Linley, who in the Radiant Church do you wish to kill?” Zassler was certain that Linley had to have had a major grudge against someone in the Radiant Church, for him to hate it so.\n“Who?”\nLinley shook his head. “I intend to destroy the Radiant Church and tear out its roots.”\n“The Radiant Church?” Zassler was truly stunned for a moment, then he laughed loudly. “Haha, wonderful, excellent! When the time comes, we will kill Heidens together and annihilate the Radiant Church!” But Linley’s face was cold and emotionless.\n“Let’s go.” Linley led Bebe and Haeru towards the exit.\n“Where to?” Zassler immediately followed.\n“Do you have any destination?” Linley asked.\n“None.” Zassler shook his head.\nLinley said calmly, “Then starting today, just follow me.” As he spoke, Linley led Bebe and Haeru into the darkness. Zassler started, then mumbled to himself, “It seems that by following this Linley, the future will be quite exciting.” And thus, this eight hundred year old Arch Magus necromancer followed Linley into the night."

第二十五章
黑袍男子老远一声大喊，不但将林雷跟亡灵大魔导‘吓了一下，连在两层小楼中的兰普森等四位九级强者都惊动了。
“怎么回事，科萨特斯怎么不在？” 兰普森直接推开了房门，直接在二楼走廊上就怒斥道。
这时候，其他的三名九级强者也各自从自己房间走了出来。
而塞勒斯房间中。
赛斯勒听到大喊声，脸色一变，立即对旁边的林雷吩咐道：“你杀了一个九级强者，还剩下五个。
这五个中三个交给我，你对付另外两个。
“你只要能杀死一个就够了。” 林雷淡然说道，同时林雷静静等待对方聚集到门外，等对方聚集到门外，贝贝跟黑鲁就可以从后方，自己跟这个亡灵大魔导从前方，两面夹攻，对方也更加没机会逃跑。
赛斯勒听林雷这么说，不由冷笑道：“真是什么都敢吹嘘。”
“大哥。” 那黑袍男人这时候终于看到了卡萨特斯的尸体，立即悲呼一声，同时他也注意到了里面的两个人。
只听到几道风声，住在楼上的四个九级强者都跳落下来。
兰普森等一群人看到赛斯勒，又看到林雷，面色大变。
“大家好，上一次交手还不过瘾，这一次我们继续。” 亡灵大魔导‘赛斯勒’笑眯眯地看着眼前的五个九级强者。
“禁魔手铐断裂了。” 其中一个银发地九级老者惊呼道。
可是兰普森却是盯着林雷。
“兰普森红衣大主教，好久不见。” 林雷持着黑钰重剑。 那暗金色瞳孔中射出来的冰冷的目光扫过这一群人。
林雷变身的这个恐怖模样，光明教廷高层中大多高手都是知道的。
兰普森声音压得很低，表情也愈发的阴沉。
“你是杀我们六个好兄弟的那个林雷？” 科萨特斯的弟弟，那个黑袍男人难以置信看着林雷，“怎么可能？”
亡灵大魔导‘赛斯勒’有些惊讶地看着林雷，光明教廷高手的反应，救他地这个‘龙人’好像很厉害的样子：“你叫林雷？ 好像你的名气比我还大？”
“我的人已经到了，随时可以动手。”
亡灵大魔导‘赛斯勒’得意一笑。 只见两个金色骷髅弓箭手出现在了他的身后。 林雷心底一惊。
他听说过亡灵魔法中有‘亡灵召唤’，这是他第一次见到，这两个黄金色的骷髅弓箭手，那种气势竟然丝毫不比九级强者低。
“林雷，你好像很厉害的，我们比比，我们谁杀的人多。”
赛斯勒得意一笑，同时门口竟然又凭空出现了三头足有三米高地强壮的金色毛发僵尸。
两个黄金骷髅弓箭手，三头金毛僵尸。 每一个都有九级强者的实力。
这加起来可就是五个九级强者了。 兰普森看了看赛斯勒，又看了看林雷，最后一咬牙，低声喝道：“撤退，我们快走。” 兰普森这个命令真的不想下啊。
为了抓住赛斯勒，他们付出太多了。
而且一旦从赛斯勒那得到亡灵魔法的修炼方法，光明教廷完全可以暗中培养起来一批亡灵魔法师。
“快走，尸龙要出现了。” 二名特级执事、二名苦修者、一名红衣大主教都极速朝庭院外逃出去。 “咻！”
“咻！”
两道金色利箭撕裂长空，直接射向两名苦修者。 而且同一时刻。
“兰普森，你们一个别想逃掉。” 林雷冷酷的声音响起，同时林雷整个人如同闪电一样斜着冲起。
林雷速度真的很快。
外加辅助魔法‘极速’。 在借助天地之势……林雷的速度远远超过那两名特级执事，更被说红衣大主教跟两名苦修者了。
黑纹云豹‘黑鲁’不顾一切直接朝其中一个特级执事抓咬过去，那名特级执事惊恐地立即一剑狠狠劈向黑纹云豹。 “啊。”
那特级执事的脑袋直接被黑纹云豹给抓成了稀巴烂，而特级执事那全力一剑竟然没有伤黑纹云豹丝毫。
论防御，黑纹云豹比林雷还要强，只是比贝贝略微差一点。
贝贝在那特级执事措手不及地时候，直接两爪子破掉对方防御，而后一爪子插入对方的胸膛，抓碎掉了对方心脏。
“吼~~”黑纹云豹转头就攻击向旁边的苦修者，那苦修者真地蒙了。
突然冒出来两头魔兽，直接杀死了两个特级执事。
贝贝也同样攻击向另外的苦修者。
两位苦修者跟兰普森真的惊呆了，他们都是擅长光明系魔法的，可是魔法就需要时间，而瞬发的魔法根本不可能抵挡这种魔兽。
“兰普森！”
林雷一声大吼，持着黑钰重剑，如同魔神一样，黑钰重剑从高空直接劈了下来，甚至于令空间都震荡了起来。
兰谱森甚至于惊恐地发现。 上方空间宛如被封住一样。
在死亡前一刻，兰普森想起当年第一次见到林雷的场面，那是拍卖石雕‘梦醒’的拍卖会，那时候的林雷是一个阳光的天才少年。 没想到几年之后，林雷却是变得如此可怕，今天更是来要他地命。
在兰普森不甘的眼神中，林雷的黑钰重剑直接劈在了兰普森的身体上，这时候林雷如今正在研修的关于大地法则跟黑钰重剑使用方法的一些零碎领悟竟然碰巧使用出来了。
如同大地的脉动。
无法抗衡地震动，原本恐怖的力量透过黑钰重剑，竟然化为了如大地‘脉动’一般的震动，直接传递到兰普森身体中。
兰普森身体仿佛筛子一样震颤了一下，而后就软软倒地了。 兰普森的身体表面竟然没有一丝伤痕。
如果有人切开兰普森的肚皮，就会发现兰普森身体内五脏六腑全部变成了烂泥。
结果完全可以想象。 贝贝、黑鲁、林雷，这三人轻易杀死了五个九级强者！
如果加上一开始杀死的那个，刚好六个。
这时候在庭院中央，空间翻滚了起来。 出现了一个次元通道，一头黑色地巨龙脑袋从那次元通道中冒出来。
“这，这。”
赛斯勒看着林雷以及旁边的黑色影鼠以及黑纹云豹‘黑鲁’。
完全愣住了，无话可说了。 刚才他还那么高傲，还说让林雷解决两个九级强者，他解决三个。
可是，他的亡灵生物一个人还没杀，林雷和他的魔兽就杀死了所有的强者。
“赛斯勒先生，你这尸龙就不必召唤出来了吧。 难道你想让他跟贝贝，或者黑鲁较量较量？” 林雷淡然说道。
亡灵大魔导‘赛斯勒’干瘦地脸皮抽搐了一下，随后便让尸龙又回到亡灵界了。 “林雷，你这两个魔兽是比较厉害。
不过我的尸龙也不差，而且我可不单单有尸龙，我还有一个老尸妖。” 赛斯勒冷笑道，“你要知道，只要亡灵界不灭，亡灵魔法师的人马就是无穷无尽。”
林雷还真地被赛斯勒这话给一吓。
其实赛斯勒心头也明白，从亡灵界中收服亡灵生物并不是那么容易的，要一个个收服。 比如当初为了收服那头尸龙，他赛斯勒可是损失了不少亡灵生物。
“赶快收拾一下这庭院，别让光明教廷的人发现这里的事情。”
赛斯勒直接命令他的亡灵生物。
那两个黄金骷髅弓箭手和三个金毛僵尸非常听话的去收拾那些尸体了，他们的效率非常高，很快庭院中尸体便都消失不见了。
赛斯勒饶有兴趣地看着林雷，“听兰普森等人的样子，你好像很出名，能跟我说说你的事情吗？”
林雷瞥了赛斯勒一眼：“闭嘴，安静点。”
赛斯勒见林雷那毫无感情的暗金色瞳孔，却笑了起来：“林雷，看起来，你对光明教廷有很大的仇怨，是吗？”
林雷这次答话了。 “什么仇？”
赛斯勒立即询问道。
“不死不休。” 林雷声音低沉，却如亡灵界的阴风一样让人灵魂都发颤。
赛斯勒眼睛顿时亮了起来，立即兴奋道：“哈哈，好，林雷，我看你也有点实力，要不这样，你来帮我，我们一同对付光明教廷的人怎么样？”
以你为主吗？” 林雷看向赛斯勒。
赛斯勒不得不承认，被林雷这暗金色瞳孔盯着，心底还真有点不爽。
赛斯勒作为亡灵魔法师，近战实力差。 而亡灵生物是需要一定时间来召唤的。
林雷暗金色瞳孔盯着赛斯勒沉默许久。
林雷终于发话了，林雷也承认，跟这个亡灵魔法师合作，的确可以让自己一方实力更强。
赛斯勒顿时大喜：“哈哈，那太好了，我们两个联手，还怕什么？ 海廷斯，总有一天我要杀了海廷斯那个老家伙。 林雷，你想杀光明教廷的谁？”
“谁？”
林雷摇头，“我要将光明教廷连根拔起。”
“光明教廷？” 赛斯勒真的有些被震住了，而后大笑起来，“哈哈，痛快，好……到时候我们一起杀了海廷斯，灭了光明教廷。”
林雷却是一脸的冷漠。 “走吧。”
“去哪？” 赛斯勒立即跟了过去。
“你有目的地吗？” 林雷问道。
赛斯勒摇头。
林雷淡漠道：“那从今天起，你只管跟着我就行了。” 说着，林雷便带着贝贝、黑鲁消失在黑暗中，而赛斯勒一怔，自言自语道：“似乎跟这个林雷，以后日子会很精彩啊。” 已经八百多岁的亡灵大魔导就这么跟着林雷离开了。

Chapter 25 – When Experts Join Forces
This loud shout by the black-robed man not only frightened Linley and the Arch Magus necromancer, it also startled Lampson and the other three experts of the ninth rank on the second floor.
“What’s going on? Why is Xartes gone?” Lampson immediately pushed open his door, walking to the second floor corridor and barking angrily.
At this time, the other three combatants of the ninth rank came out of their rooms as well.
Within Zassler’s room.
Hearing the loud shouts, the look on Zassler’s face changed. He immediately instructed the nearby Linley, “You killed one combatant of the ninth rank, but there are five remaining. I will take care of three of them. You handle the other two. Don’t tell me you aren’t able to do so.”
Zassler was quite confident in his ability to deal with three combatants of the ninth rank.
“You only need to kill one.” Linley said calmly. At the same time, Linley quietly awaited the opponents to gather outside. When they did so, Bebe and Haeru would ambush them from behind, while he and the Arch Magus necromancer would attack from the front. This pincer attack would make it even harder for their opponents to flee.
Hearing Linley’s words, Zassler couldn’t help but sneer, “You really dare to make all sorts of wild boasts.”
“Bro!” At this moment, the black-robed man saw the corpse of Xartes. He immediately let out a howl of grief, while also noticing that there were now two men inside the room.
Like a gust of wind, the four other combatants of the ninth rank descended from the higher floors.
Lampson and the others stared at Zassler, then at Linley. The expressions on their face changed.
“Hello, everyone. Last time we fought, it wasn’t as fun as it should have been. Let’s play again.” The Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, beamed happily at the five combatants of the ninth rank in front of him.
“The antimagic shackles are broken.” A silver-haired old expert of the ninth rank said in shock.
But Lampson was staring at Linley.
“Cardinal Lampson. Long time no see.” Linley held his adamantine heavy sword in his hands, his dark gold eyes shooting a cold, merciless glare towards these men.
Almost all of the high level combatants of the Radiant Church knew about the terrifying appearance Linley had when transformed. “Linley!”
Lampson’s voice was very low, and his facial expression was dark.
“You are the Linley who killed six of my comrades?” Xartes’ younger brother, that black-robed man, stared at Linley in disbelief. “How is that possible?”
The Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, also stared at Linley in surprise. From the reaction of the Radiant Church’s squad, this ‘Draconian’ who had rescued him apparently was quite formidable. “Oh, your name is Linley? And it seems you are even more famous than me?”
Linley just stared coldly at the enemies. “Enough talk. Let’s do this.”
“My men are ready. We can move at any time.” The Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, laughed delightedly. Suddenly, two golden skeletal archers manifested behind him.
He had heard that Necromantic Magic possessed the Wraith Call ability, but this was the first time he had seen it in action. These two golden skeletal archers had auras that weren’t the slightest bit weaker than combatants of the ninth rank.
“Linley, you seem to be quite powerful. Let’s have a little competition and see who kills more.” Zassler laughed delightedly, while at this moment, three powerful, three-meter tall golden-furred zombies appeared at the door. These golden-furred zombies had jade-green eyes.
Two golden skeletal archers, and three golden-furred zombies. Each of them had the power of a combatant of the ninth rank.
Combined, they made up a force of five combatants of the ninth rank!
Lampson looked at Zassler, then looked at Linley. Grinding his teeth, he ordered in a low voice, “Retreat. We leave now!” Lampson truly did not wish to give this order.
In order to capture Zassler, they had sacrificed so much.
But once they learned the secrets of Necromantic Magic from Zassler, the Radiant Church would totally be capable of secretly raising an entire squad of necromancers.
“Flee, now! The Undead Dragon is about to arrive!” The two Special Executors, the two Ascetics, and the Cardinal all hurriedly fled from the courtyard.
“Swish!” “Swish!”
Two golden arrows split the air, piercing directly towards the two Ascetics. At the same moment, two black blurs suddenly appeared from outside the courtyard.
“Lampson. Not one of you will escape.” Linley’s callous voice rang out, while at the same time, Linley charged towards them like a bolt of lightning.
Linley’s movement speed really was incredibly fast. As a peak-stage ninth rank combatant who had inherited the speed inherent to the Armored Razorback Wyrm, was supported by the Supersonic spell, and also borrowed the ‘imposing force’ of the world…Linley’s speed far surpassed those two Special Executors, to say nothing of the Ascetics and the Cardinal.
“Roaaaar!”
The Blackcloud Panther, Haeru, charged recklessly at one of the Special Executors, clawing and biting at him. Terrified, the Special Executor immediately chopped viciously at the Blackcloud Panther with his sword.
“Ah!” The Special Executor’s skull was caved in by the panther’s paw, while his sword hadn’t managed to injure Haeru in the slightest.
In terms of defense, the Blackcloud Panther was even more formidable than Linley, and only a whisker inferior to Bebe.
In terms of defense, the Blackcloud Panther was even more formidable than Linley, and only a whisker inferior to Bebe. “Slash, slash!”
Catching the Special Executor totally off-guard, Bebe pierced straight through his defense, driving his claws into the man’s chest and ripping the man’s heart out.
In the blink of an eye, the two magical beasts had killed two combatants of the ninth rank.
Bebe charged towards the other Ascetic as well.
The two Ascetics and Lampson were all truly in states of shock. They specialized in light-style magic, but all magic took time to set up. The spells they could instacast wouldn’t be of use against these two magical beasts.
“Lampson!”
Linley let out a loud roar. Wielding his adamantine heavy sword, like a demonic god, he chopped down with his black adamantine heavy sword, causing the very air to vibrate with the force of the blow.
Lampson discovered, to his terror, that the space above him had been totally locked in.
In the moment of his death, Lampson thought back to that first time he had encountered Linley. That was the day that the sculpture, ‘Awakening From the Dream’ was being auctioned. At that time, Linley was an optimistic, joyful young genius. But a few years later, Linley had become so frightening. And today, Linley was going to take his life.
“Bam.” Before Lampson’s unwilling eyes, Linley’s adamantine heavy sword slashed down directly on his body. At this moment, Linley managed to link together some of the scattered insights he had regarding the new level he was trying to attain.
It was like the pulse of the world itself.
Those deep tremors. Those irresistible vibrations. The terrifying force that the adamantine heavy sword was carrying suddenly transformed into a ‘pulse’ like rhythm which entered Lampson’s body.
Lampson’s entire body trembled once, and then he collapsed to the ground. Not a single wound could be seen on Lampson’s body…but blood was flowing from Lampson’s ear and nose.
If someone were to cut open Lampson’s skin, they would discover that Lampson’s internal organs had all disintegrated.
At this time, Bebe and Haeru finished off the two remaining Ascetics. This killing spree was simply too perfectly formulated. The undead creatures which Zassler had summoned, along with Linley’s fearsome appearance, had actually frightened Lampson’s group so much that they had directly fled, but just as they had reached the walls, they were caught totally off-guard by Bebe and Haeru, these two unspeakably terrifying magical beasts.
Bebe, Haeru, and Linley had killed five combatants of the ninth rank! If they counted the person whom Linley had killed at the beginning, they had killed six.
Right at this moment, in the middle of the courtyard, the space began to rumble as a dimensional crack appeared. An enormous, black dragon’s head stretched out through the dimensional crack.
Wraith Call – Undead Dragon!
“But…but…” Zassler stared at Linley, as well as his black Shadowmouse and the Blackcloud Panther, Haeru. He was totally shocked, totally speechless.
Just now, he had been very arrogant, going so far as to say that he would deal with three of them, if Linley could handle two.
But before his undead creatures had killed a single person, Linley and his magical beasts had killed all of the combatants.
“Mr. Zassler, there’s no need to finish summoning this Undead Dragon, I think. Or did you want to test it out against Bebe, or perhaps Haeru?” Linley said calmly.
The leathery face of the Arch Magus necromancer, Zassler, twitched. And then, he banished the Undead Dragon back to the plane of undead.
“Linley, those two magical beasts of yours are indeed rather powerful. But my Undead Dragon isn’t weak either. What’s more, the Undead Dragon isn’t the only creature I possess. I also have an Ancient Wight.” Zassler sneered. “You must understand, so long as the undead realm remains, the army available to a necromancer is endless.”
Linley truly was frightened by Zassler’s words.
Actually, in his heart, Zassler knew that taming an undead creature in the undead realm was no easy feat. They had to be subdued one at a time, after all. In the past, when he had subdued this Undead Dragon, he had sacrificed many other undead creatures.
“Let’s hurry up and clean up this courtyard. Don’t let the Radiant Church know what happened here.” Linley said immediately.
Zassler immediately began to issue orders to his undead creatures.
Those two golden skeletal archers and the three golden-furred zombies very obediently began to dispose of the corpses. They were quite efficient. Very soon, all the corpses had vanished.
“Linley.” Zassler looked at Linley with interest. “From what Lampson said, it seems you are quite famous. Tell me about yourself?”
Linley glanced at Zassler. “Shut your mouth. Quiet.”
Seeing Linley’s absolutely emotionless golden eyes, Zassler began to laugh. “Linley, it seems as though you have quite a large grudge against the Radiant Church, am I right?”
“So what if I do?” Linley responded this time.
“What sort of grudge?” Zassler immediately asked.
“I won’t stop till one of us is destroyed.” Linley’s voice was quiet, but it was like the sinister wind which blew in the undead realm, capable of making one’s soul shudder.
Zassler’s eyes immediately lit up. He excitedly said, “Haha, good. Linley, it seems you have some ability. How about this. You assist me, and together, we will deal with the Radiant Church.”
“Me, assist you? You be the leader?” Linley looked at Zassler.
Zassler had to admit to himself that he felt just the slightest bit uncomfortable when Linley stared at him with those dark golden eyes.
“No need to differentiate between who is the lead, and who is not. The two of us will work together.” As a necromancer, Zassler’s close-combat abilities were very poor. In addition, his undead creatures took a certain amount of time to summon.
Linley’s dark gold eyes stared at Zassler for quite some time.
“Fine. I accept.” Linley finally spoke. Linley had to admit that joining forces with a necromancer could indeed make him stronger.
Zassler immediately exulted. “Haha, wonderful. With the two of us joining forces, what have we to fear? Heidens, there will come a day when I kill you, you old bastard. Linley, who in the Radiant Church do you wish to kill?” Zassler was certain that Linley had to have had a major grudge against someone in the Radiant Church, for him to hate it so.
“Who?”
Linley shook his head. “I intend to destroy the Radiant Church and tear out its roots.”
“The Radiant Church?” Zassler was truly stunned for a moment, then he laughed loudly. “Haha, wonderful, excellent! When the time comes, we will kill Heidens together and annihilate the Radiant Church!” But Linley’s face was cold and emotionless.
“Let’s go.” Linley led Bebe and Haeru towards the exit.
“Where to?” Zassler immediately followed.
“Do you have any destination?” Linley asked.
“None.” Zassler shook his head.
Linley said calmly, “Then starting today, just follow me.” As he spoke, Linley led Bebe and Haeru into the darkness. Zassler started, then mumbled to himself, “It seems that by following this Linley, the future will be quite exciting.” And thus, this eight hundred year old Arch Magus necromancer followed Linley into the night.

第1099章
“他是怪物吗？”
众人看着还没有死的石峰，一个个目瞪口呆。
之前射出去的一支黑箭明明干掉了过半的生命值，现在两只加到一起还不到一半。
“所有远程集火，他的生命值不多了！”
就在众人看到石峰抵挡住两支黑箭陷入震惊时，弃一涛最先反应过来，随即从背包里取出了一张深灰色的魔法卷轴，猛然摊开。
二阶魔法卷轴死之吹熄。 顿时七八道灰色的风刃就席卷向石峰而去，反应过来的其他远程也纷纷发动了攻击。
不过石峰也没有打算坐以待毙，直接用出虚无之步，现在消失在众人眼前，所有攻击掠过后，没有一个打中石峰的。
“该死，竟然这么快就缓了过来！” 弃一涛眼角微抽，连忙吩咐道，“所有人组成防御阵型前进！”
虚无之步这东西实在诡异，哪怕是万世无双的实力，也仅能在半径20码内有些模糊的感应，超出了20码外根本没有办法，更不用说他们，哪怕相隔10码，不到石峰出手根本察觉不到。
唯一的应对办法就只有一个，围成一圈前进，这样石峰就没法接近处于圈内的他。
而万世无双也立刻进入防御圈内，准备守护弃一涛。
因为现在兰斯洛特掉落的所有物品都在弃一涛的身上，如果弃一涛一死，所有物品肯定都会掉出来。
当然这座有风险，但是如果把所有物品分开，这样零翼会更容易针对，保护起来也更麻烦，还不如全心保护一个人，而且弃一涛本人也是一位40级的刺客，实力水平也相当高手，只要进入潜行状态，想要发现也不是那么容易。
面对围成防御阵型缓慢前进的弃一涛等人，石峰时不时就出现在一人的身旁干掉一个最外围的玩家然后消失，如果时间充裕就干掉两人。
“还真是个乌龟壳。”
石峰对此也很无语。 他手中的群攻魔法卷轴已经没有了，只有几张单体的攻击魔法和限制魔法，根本无法打开局面。
如果他跳跃过去，在半空中肯定会被发现。
半空中的玩家是无法改变移动轨迹的，很容易被针对。
一直杀下去又会被集火，毕竟这些人不是普通玩家，配合很好，攻击精准，一般一两剑根本干不掉，必须用出战技才行。 没有办法只能慢慢耗下去。
随着人数的递减，黑水众人也都陷入了无尽的恐慌中，尤其是站在外围的玩家各个胆战心惊，深怕自己就是下一个牺牲者。
石峰出现的速度太快，攻击的速度更是让人反应不过来，等到他们开始反击时，石峰早已经消失不见，而他们又不能去追。 作为公会的精英和高手，他们还是第一次明白了什么是高手。
以一挑十或者挑百的高手简直弱爆了。
面对那样的高手，他们多少还有反抗之力。
向石峰这样，一个人就把他们数百人杀的不敢动弹，而且在击杀他们时，只能挨个等死才真是让人欲哭无泪。
时间一点一点的流逝，因为是防御阵型，前进非常缓慢，在石峰一次次的杀戮下，数百人的团队，最终只剩下一百多人，但是距离方尖之塔的塔顶也只差最后的100码。
众人看到塔顶上的巨大魔水晶后，一个个都露出了激动和解脱的神情。
只要击碎魔水晶，小镇的魔法屏障就会再次消失，他们就可以找个抵挡隐藏好，直接用回城卷轴离开，而不是向现在这样静静等死。
“好，距离够了，所有刺客和游侠都给我冲上去破坏魔水晶，其他人接着以防御阵型前进！” 一直处于潜行状态的弃一涛悄声指挥道。
之前距离太远，以石峰的实力，恐怕人还没有跑到就被全部干掉了，如今相差也就100码距离，如果石峰留下来对付他，魔水晶肯定保不住，但如果去对付攻击魔水晶的人，他们这里就可以加速前进，至于他趁机逃走，让其他人接着冲过去是不可能了。
现在整个方尖之塔已经被零翼给围得水泄不通，要不然剩下来的其他成员死死顶着，其他的零翼成员早就冲上来了。
顿时十多名刺客和游侠就疯狂冲向巨大魔水晶。
石峰没有办法，只好追向狂奔的刺客和游侠。
幸好回廊不大，石峰的速度够快，终于在距离40码时，解决了所有的刺客和游侠，没有让游侠有机会攻击到巨大魔水晶，不过也因此让弃一涛等人前进了好大一段距离，只差巨大魔水晶还有60码。
“胜了！”
此时弃一涛心中狂喜。
说是60码距离，但是对于远程职业的玩家来说，40码距离就可以攻击了，所以实际的距离只有20码。
20码想要阻止近百精英和高手的攻击巨大魔水晶，那根本是不可能的事情。
只要魔法屏障一消失，他就会立刻带着掉落物品回星月王城，虽然这次战斗损失极大，但是他相信这些掉落物品可以弥补相当的损失，因为他大致已经查看过掉落的物品，其中有几件可是对于公会的发展有着巨大作用，也不算白忙一场，相比零翼来说，他们已经算是很好了，毕竟零翼可是损失的一座石林小镇。
不过就在弃一涛心中狂喜时，半空中突然落下一道道光之圣剑，每个人的头上都冒出了一万多点的伤害。
这一招正是石峰用出来的天轮循环之剑，可以封锁范围20*20码的敌人四秒钟。
弃一涛也从潜行中显现出来，一脸震惊的看着傲然站在距离巨大魔水晶40码的地方。
“怎么可能，他为什么可以使用技能？ 应该还没有到十分钟呀！”
不光是弃一涛，万世无双和一萧独葬也是一脸茫然。
但是石峰并没有给众人过多时间去反应，直接举起圣剑弑雷对着弃一涛等人用出了千刃流光。
弃一涛的计算虽然没有错，从禁魔到现在的确没有十分钟，但是弃一涛却疏忽了玩家的自身抗性，尤其是石峰的魔抗，就算是法系npc看了都会头疼。
魔抗是对玩家的魔法抵抗能力，可不光是受到魔法造成的伤害，也包括魔法造成的负面状态。
就在弃一涛想着击碎魔水晶的方法时，石峰何尝不是在拖延时间。
终于在最后关头赶上了。
无尽的光之刃直接覆盖了所有人，一波接一波，哪怕弃一涛开启疾风步和消失技能，也挡不住足足持续五秒的千刃流光，把所有人都吞噬殆尽，只剩下掉落一地的物品。
弃一涛等人的死亡也很快让石林小镇内拼命抵抗的众人所知道。
指挥者的死亡对于公会的影响可是相当大，这让黑水众人最后的一丝希望都破灭了，气势大减，对付起来变得更为容易。
而石峰也把弃一涛所有人都收入了背包里，开始一点点整理起来。
就在石峰一件一件整理时，背包里的一件东西，彻底让石峰无法移开眼睛了。
那件东西一块银白色的方形令牌，在令牌上刻有雄狮图案，此外还写着几个字。

Chapter 1099 - Town Promotion Order
“Is he a monster?”
Everyone was stupefied when they saw that Shi Feng survived Singular Burial’s attacks.
Previously, a single Black Arrow had reaped over half of Shi Feng’s HP. Yet, now, despite receiving two Black Arrows, he lost less than half of his HP.
“All ranged players, focus fire on him! He doesn’t have much HP remaining!”
While everyone else was frozen in shock at Shi Feng’s feat, Abandoned Wave quickly reacted and took out a dark gray Magic Scroll from his bag. Tier 2 Magic Scroll, Death’s Flurry.
Immediately, eight gray blades of wind swept towards Shi Feng. At this moment, the other ranged players also began launching their own attacks one after another.
However, Shi Feng had no intention of simply waiting for his death. Executing Void Steps, he disappeared before everyone once again. The incoming attacks just passed through his original position, not a single one landing on him.

Hence, the only method to deal with this problem was to advance in a defensive circle. This way, Shi Feng would have no opportunity to approach Abandoned Wave, who was inside the circle.
Peerless had also immediately entered the defensive circle, fully prepared to protect Abandoned Wave.
Right now, Abandoned Wave carried all of Lancelot’s loot they obtained. If he died, all the loot would definitely drop.
While having a single person carry all the loot was a risky move, having multiple people carry them would give Zero Wing an easier chance to target them—and make it more difficult to protect the loot.

Shi Feng was simply too fast. Not only were his appearances sudden, but even his attacks were impossible to detect. Moreover, by the time they began launching their counterattacks, Shi Feng had long since disappeared. Yet, they also weren’t allowed to give chase.
Compared to Shi Feng, those experts that boasted the ability to go up against ten or a hundred opponents by themselves were simply weaklings.
If faced against those kinds of experts, Blackwater’s members could still put up a modicum of resistance.
Shi Feng, however, instilled so much fear into their group of several hundred players that they did not even dare to move. Moreover, when he was attacking them, the only thing they could do was await their impending doom.
Time passed by quickly. Due to the defensive formation, Abandoned Wave and the others advanced at a crawl. Consequently, Shi Feng managed to gradually whittle the team of several hundred players down to just 100 or so. Right now, however, the group was only 100 yards away from the sealing crystal ball.

Immediately, over a dozen Assassins and Rangers raced madly for the crystal ball.
Having no other choice, Shi Feng could only chase these players.
Fortunately, the path towards the crystal ball was not very wide. Before the Assassins and Rangers even entered within 40 yards of the crystal ball, Shi Feng had already disposed of them all. However, this situation also allowed Abandoned Wave and the others to advance a significant distance. Right now, the group was only 60 yards away from the crystal ball.
We won!
At this moment, Abandoned Wave was ecstatic.
Although they were still 60 yards away, ranged players had an attack range of 40 yards. Hence, realistically, they only needed to cross another 20 yards.
There was no way Shi Feng could wipe out their team of nearly 100 elite and expert players before they crossed these 20 yards.
As long as the magic barrier was gone, Abandoned Wave could immediately bring the loot back to Star-Moon City. Although he had suffered massive losses in this war, the loot from Lancelot should offset a considerable amount of his losses. Previously, he had browsed through the items they obtained. Several among them would be of massive help to a Guild’s development. At the very least, Blackwater would be much better off than Zero Wing. After all, the latter had lost Stone Forest Town.
However, just as Abandoned Wave was jubilating, divine swords suddenly began raining down on his group, damage of over -10,000 appearing above everyone’s heads.
This move was none other than Shi Feng’s Skywheel Sword, a Skill capable of sealing all enemies within a 20-yard radius for four seconds.
As a result of this attack, Abandoned Wave was also revealed. At this moment, Abandoned Wave stared at Shi Feng, who stood 40 yards away from the crystal ball, in shock.
Impossible! How can he use Skills again?! Ten minutes shouldn’t have passed yet!
Abandoned Wave was filled with confusion.
Peerless and Singular Burial were similarly dumbfounded at this situation. However, Shi Feng did not give them much time to react. He immediately raised Killing Ray and executed Lightning Edge.
Although Abandoned Wave was correct in that less than ten minutes had passed since Shi Feng was Silenced, he had forgotten that players had their own natural resistances. Shi Feng’s Magic Resistance could give even magical class NPCs a headache.
Magical Resistance not only reduced the magic damage players received but also weakened the side effects of magic.
In reality, while Abandoned Wave was focused on figuring out how to destroy the sealing crystal, Shi Feng was buying time for himself.
In the end, Shi Feng made it at the last moment.
One wave came after another, countless lightning bolts devouring everyone. Despite Abandoned Wave activating Wind Steps and Vanish, he still could not last through the 5-second duration of Lightning Edge. By the time the Skill ended, only Shi Feng and a pile of loot remained on the rooftop of the Obelisk.
Word of Abandoned Wave’s and the others’ deaths quickly spread to everyone fighting desperately inside Stone Forest Town.
The death of the commander would affect a Guild’s performance considerably. This situation also wiped out the last hope Blackwater’s members held. Their morale plummeted, making them much easier to deal with.
Meanwhile, Shi Feng himself had collected all the loot Abandoned Wave’s group had dropped and began arranging them one by one.
Midway, however, he noticed an item in his bag that captured his attention.
The item was a square silver token engraved with the image of a lion. There were also a few words written on it.

第七百章
惊世骇俗的冲刺！
（第三更！
求月票！
“我来！” “神明大人，选我，我可是火元素领域的超级天才，对化身源能更是了如指掌。 我们市区之内，我要是说第二，没人敢说第一啊！”
“滚蛋，刚才你不是说勉强可以吗？”
“你哪只眼睛看见我说了！”
现场瞬间大乱。
苏浩目瞪口呆的看着这一幕，“我去，刚才你们不是说勉强吗？”
“神明大人，跟您比，我们这些天赋水准，自然只能是勉强，但是如果只是教导学生的话，绝对是专家级啊！”
那之前开口之人哭诉道。
“汗，原来是这样。” 苏浩擦汗。
这才想起来。
也是，这些人，之所以被抓走，不就是因为他们耀人的天赋吗？
这些人，又有哪一个是平凡之辈？ “行，那就一个个来吧。”
苏浩想了一下。
“轰！”
现实中。 苏浩睁开眼睛。
“轰！”
周围源能震荡，苏浩似乎在此刻化身一个巨大的黑洞，浑身上下，散发着无穷的吸引力，将周围一切吸入其中。
苏灵小嘴微张的看着这一幕。
如果熟悉苏浩技能的恐怕就知道，每当这一幕展现的时候，就意味着，苏哈的循环世界——开启了。
一道诡秘的源能现身，一个半虚幻的人影在苏浩面前淡淡的成型，那是一抹抹淡淡的火焰，形成一个单薄的身影。
这是某一个天国子民！
苏浩打开循环世界，这些人可以调用一点点的力量，然后利用现实投影，完成了这惊人的一幕。 如他们自己所说，这些人，纵然被抓了。
苏灵眼睛睁大。
哥哥苏浩身上的诡异就不说了，眼下竟然突然多出了一个人影，而且是火元素构成的，让她不免有些好奇。
“你的老师。” 苏浩淡然说道，“同样火元素天赋的职业化巅峰，哥哥请他们过来。 帮你传授点化身源能的经验。”
“呀！” 苏灵惊喜，“3d投影，这可是高新技术。”
显然。 苏浩召唤天国子民帮忙这一幕，在妹妹苏灵看来，只是通过通讯仪而完成的3d投影而已。 对此，苏浩只是淡然一笑。
苏浩看了那人影一眼，天国子民向苏浩致意，然后才看向苏灵。 开始了生涯中的第一次课讲传授。
天国子民前所未有的认真。
经过这些日子的磨合，在所有人眼中，苏浩早已成了真正的神明，神明的妹妹，那是什么人？
自然要全心全意的传授！
所以，仅仅一位职业化巅峰，就让苏灵整个人完全听傻了。
一开始，她还并不是还在意。 毕竟，她师父，一中校长，也有这样的水准，在学校之内，这样的视频也有不少。 但是当那人说完的时候，她完全惊呆了。
这人不仅想了，还完成了！
火元素，在这个人手中。
在这样的教学中，才是真正的出神入化。 第一次，苏灵觉得自己早已无比纯熟的火元素凝聚，是如此的生涩和单薄，几乎就是小学生的水准！
苏灵消化着每一个知识，眼中是对知识的极度渴求，虽然她不知道哥哥从哪里找到这个从未听说过的超级天才，但是无论如何，这对现在专业化巅峰的她而言，简直是难以想象的福音！
苏浩只是淡淡的看着。
不得不说。 苏灵的确是天才，若是有同样的资源，也绝对不弱于那些人。 而现在，苏浩给了妹妹最佳的帮助。
苏灵对火的认识就彻底刷新了。
苏灵对火开始有了新的定义。
三个人。
苏灵陷入懵懵懂懂的状态。
为此，苏浩被老妈狠狠的批了一顿，让他苦笑不已。
这个状态没有持续太久。
三天后。 苏家，一股惊人的气息骤然爆发，又被苏浩强制阻断，将整个苏家所有源能波动屏蔽，谁也不会知道。
这小小的苏家，又多出来一位职业化强者。
苏灵！
职业化一级！
“轰！”
若非苏浩及时阻拦，整个苏家差点在这一波冲击中化作火海，无尽的火焰中，一团瑰丽的火焰闪烁。
最终，化成了苏灵。
“刷！”
苏灵睁眼，眼中两道火焰光芒一闪而逝。
“哥，我突破了？” 苏灵仍旧有些惊喜，甚至难以置信。
这才几天呀？
数天前，她还是那个纠结的专业化七级，而如今，竟然彻底蜕变，成了高高在上的职业化了？
专业九级！
专业巅峰！
化身源能！
这些让无数人卡住的屏障，就这样过去了？
几天？
数天时间，让她蜕变，这简直不敢想象！
哥哥如今得多强？
苏灵眼中充满了小星星，这可是她哥哥！
“嗯。 高考没几天了，这几天，就好好掌握吧，这一次的高考，比起第一届改革而言，恐怕还要难处太多。” 苏浩笑着说道。
努力！
苏灵再度开始了修炼。
职业化的突破波澜不惊。 在苏浩的强行压制下，没有任何人知道。
而真正让人惊喜的是，苏灵在将二十个职业化巅峰传授的经验彻底明悟和融合之后，刚刚踏入职业化的实力，竟然还在进步！
到了高考前的一天，竟然稳固在了职业化三级！
从专业七级到职业三级。
小小的一个苏家，蕴含了太多不可思议的事情。 而这些消息，每一个传出去，恐怕都会惊天动地。
“职业化三级，这次，终归没人能比了吧。” 苏浩淡然一笑。
联邦范围内姑且不说，至少在整个江河市，一中校园之内，无人踏入职业化！
“哥。 这次我也要拿状元！” 苏灵扬扬自己的小拳头，得意的说道。
“嗯，加油。” 苏浩哑然一笑，看着妹妹的目光，充满了温馨。
不就是为了这一幕吗？ 总有一天，他要将凶兽灭尽！
让所有人都过上这样的日子！
老妈的声音传来。 将豪言要夺取冠军的苏灵惊醒，小丫头吐吐舌头，抬头看看苏浩，两人顿时相视一笑。
“知道啦，老妈！”
“来了。”
苏家，充满了欢声笑语。
夜，深了。
这一夜，整个联邦不知道人多少失眠。
次日，高考降临！
时隔一年，在经历过去年的疯狂之后，第二届改革高考，再度全球上映，几乎联邦所有人，都开始关注。 当然，或许，在某个不为人知的角落，在某些特殊的地方，也有凶兽在默默的看着。
这是荣耀之战！
这个最强的荣耀！
竟然变成了生死任务，一次核弹爆发，几乎将苏浩玩死，本该是荣耀的东西，被钻了空子。 这也就导致，这次的高考，没有第一次那么多乱七八糟的奖励，仅仅只是对高考前十名做了许诺。
这些人，可以在天龙苑免费修炼！
第十名，三天！
第九名，六天！
第八名，九天！
第一名，一个月！
几乎所有知道内情的人，都是心神狂震，那可是天龙苑的修炼室啊……多少天龙苑弟子，累死累活完成任务，仅仅只是为了在里面修炼半个月？
就算是苏浩，高原市一战，那么丰厚的任务！
完成了一大半！ 甚至还是双倍积分！
甚至灭杀了领域化！ 手下不知道多少凶兽亡魂，这也才在修炼室坚持了半年而已！
可见这奖励是何等可贵！
当然，这些都是实质奖励。
而事实上，真正能让前十名如此让人疯狂的，无非是荣耀！
这一次高考，注定了要比上一次更疯狂！
清晨。 考场考生进入！
电子光幕就位！ 网络直播就位！
第二届改革高考，正式开始！

Chapter 698: A Universally Shocking Spurt!
Translator: Exodus Tales
Editor:
Exodus Tales “Let me do it!”
“Lord, choose me. I am a super genius of the fire element. My mastery of Origin Avatar is already fully grasped within my palm. In my city, if I say I am the second best, nobody dares to claim to be the best!”
“Get lost. I thought you said that you barely qualified a moment ago.”
“Which ears of yours heard me saying so?!” “…”
The scene instantly turned into a mess.
Su Hao watched them with a stupefied look, “What is this, just now, weren’t you all saying you’re only barely qualified?”
“Lord, compared to you, our talent is naturally only barely qualified, but if we are teaching a student, then we’re definitely experts!”
The man who spoke out earlier wailed accusingly.
“…So this is the reason, huh?” Su Hao wiped away his sweat.
Only now did he realize it situation.
True, weren’t these people captured because of their talent? Which one of them is actually ordinary?
“Alright, stop arguing. You guys will take turns.” Su Hao declared after pondering for a bit.
“Wait a moment.”
Boom!
Back in the room, Su Hao opened his eyes.
Boom!
The surrounding energy trembled. It was as if Su Hao was creating a giant black hole, sucking every particle in.
Su Ling’s small mouth slightly opened, watching this scene.
If one is familiar with Su Hao’s skill, when such a scene appears, it indicates that Su Hao’s Circular World is now activated. Buzz~
A stream of mysterious energy emerged, forming a translucent illusionary figure in front of Su Hao with a touch of flame to form this thin figure.
That was without doubt one of Kingdom of Heaven’s people!
Su Hao activated his Circular World. With this, these people could utilize a bit of their power which would be projected outside, completing this amazing scene. As what they had claimed, even if they got captured, they’re absolute geniuses in their field of expertise.
“This is…” Su Ling opened her eyes wide.
Forget about that strangeness on her brother’s body. What’s with this figure with the fire element appearing out of nowhere? Su Ling couldn’t help but be curious about this.
“Your teacher.” Su Hao said indifferently, “He has the same fire element and is at the peak professional realm. Brother invited them to guide you based on their experience in Origin Avatar.”
“Wow!” Su Ling was shocked, “3D projection, this is such advanced technology.”
Obviously, Su Hao summoned the ones in Kingdom of Heaven to create this scene. In his sister’s eyes, she thought that it was via the communication device that a 3D projection was formed. Regarding this, Su Hao just gave a casual smile, “Ling Er, forget about this 3D stuff. They’re all your seniors. Are you ready?”
“Then, let’s start.” Su Hao glanced at that figure for a second. This citizen of Kingdom of Heaven greeted him before shifting his gaze to Su Ling to begin his first class.
The people from Kingdom of Heaven were more serious than ever.
After getting used to their new life all these days, in their eyes, Su Hao had become a real God. God’s sister, what kind of person is she?
Of course, they had to teach her wholeheartedly!
Thus, just a peak professional esper alone already made Su Ling listen until she was stupefied.
In the beginning, she didn’t really pay much attention. After all, her master, the school principal already had such a standard. Plus, in school, there are many videos of such quality. However, when that man finished his words, she was completely stunned. There were some things mentioned which many dared not even think of!
This man not only thought of them but also completed them!
With his guidance, one can truly reach perfection with the fire element.
For the first time, Su Ling who had always thought that her mastery in the fire element is at the tip of her fingers felt that all her knowledge was just the tip of an iceberg as if she was merely a primary school student!
“This is simply amazing!” Su Ling digested all the knowledge. Her eyes were eager for more. Although she didn’t know where his brother found this never heard of before super genius, the things he said was unimaginable gospel for someone who is at the peak specialized realm!
Su Hao just casually watched from the side.
He can’t deny the fact that Su Ling is indeed a genius. If she enjoyed the same amount of resources, she would absolutely not be any weaker than those people. Now, Su Hao provided the best help ever to her.
With the first man, Su Ling’s understanding of the fire element was completely refreshed.
With the second man, Su Ling began to have some ideas of a new definition regarding the fire element.
…
Su Ling soon fell into a state of confusion.
Because of this, his mother severely reprimanded Su Hao. All he could do was bitterly smile.
Fortunately, this state didn’t last for long.
Three days later, in the Su family’s home, an astonishing aura suddenly erupted and was forcefully blocked by Su Hao in order to mask the energy fluctuation, ensuring no one outside was aware of it.
This little Su family officially has another professional esper.
Su Ling!
Level one professional esper!
Boom!
Inexhaustible flames emerged. If not for Su Hao timely intervention, the whole home might have ended up engulfed in this sea of flame.
In the end, it went straight into Su Ling’s soul.
Swish!
Su Ling opened her eyes. One could see flames flashing within both eyes of hers.
“Brother, I broke through?” Su Ling was still unable to contain her shock. In fact, she found it hard to believe.
How long was it since she began cultivating?
A few days ago, she was stuck at the level seven specialized realm, but now she had undergone a drastic transformation and reached the professional realm!
Level nine specialized realm!
Peak specialized realm!
Origin Avatar!
These barriers which left countless people reaching bottlenecks were easily surpassed like that?
In just a few days?
For her to transform like that in just a few days, she would have never imagined this!
Currently, how strong is her brother?
Su Ling’s eyes were filled with little stars. This is her brother!
“En, the exam is about to arrive in a few days. You better use this time to get a better understanding of your Origin Avatar. This time, the exam will probably be much harder than previously.” Su Hao said with a smile.
Work hard!
Su Ling began cultivating again.
There is nothing to panic about for her breakthrough into the professional realm. After Su Hao forcefully suppressed it, no one knew of this fact.
What really made surprised him was that after integrating all the experience shared by twenty peak professional espers, Su Ling was actually still progressing even when she just stepped into the professional realm!
Until the day before the exam, she actually stabilized at level three professional realm!
In half a month, she changed the universe’s logic by going from the level seven specialized realm to a level three professional esper.
One little Su family has achieved so many incredible feats. Each of these feats, if they’re to be known to the outside world, they will definitely be earth-shattering news.
“Level three professional esper, this time, nobody can compete with her.” Su Hao smiled gently.
Forget about the entire Federation, at least in the schools of Jianghe City no one had entered the professional realm yet! Su Ling was the first!
“Brother, this time I want to be the top scorer too!” Su Ling raised her small fists and proudly declared.
“Hmmm, good luck then.” Su Hao just smiled. Looking at his sister’s gaze, he felt warmness.
So this is how a home feels like… He worked hard, struggled, protect the Federation, wasn’t it all for this scene? One day, he will exterminate all the beasts from this world!
So that everyone can enjoy such a scene!
“Hey, you two. It’s time for dinner.” Their mother’s voice rang, waking up Su Ling who was displaying her eagerness and competitiveness. Sticking out her tongue, she raised her head, looking at Su Hao. Both of them instantly burst into laughter.
“I know, mother!”
“We’re coming.”
The Su family was filled with laughter.
The night had come late.
That night, one couldn’t imagine how many people in the entire Federation were suffering from insomnia.
The next day, College Entrance Exam finally arrived!
After a lapse of one year, after madly cultivating for that duration, the second batch of the new system would finally take arrive. Almost everyone in the Federation began to pay attention. Of course, perhaps at some unknown corner, in some sort of special place, there were also some berserk beasts silently watching.
This is a battle for glory!
This is a clash among the top geniuses!
Due to the loopholes during the first batch, this time, the school had arranged a better reward system! During Su Hao’s time, as the top student, he became the chairman of the school union in Zhanzheng College. However, due to being hunted by many, it became a decorative title with no significance.
These people are allowed to train in Tian Long Court for free!
Tenth place, three days!
Ninth place, six days!
Eighth place, nine days!
First place, one month!
Everyone who knew the inner details was stunned by this reward. After all, these are Tian Long Court’s cultivation rooms! How many disciples tired to complete the mission just to cultivate inside for half a month? Even Su Hao, who had completed the mission in Gaoyuan City and received lucrative rewards, was jealous!
In fact, the points received were doubled!
Even after killing a domain esper!
Or even exterminating countless beasts, he only managed to enjoy half a year of cultivation! And it was while he used the points on the level one rooms with the smallest consumption!
One could clearly see how valuable this reward is!
Of course, these are substantial rewards.
In fact, what could really make one crazy into getting the title of top ten is nothing but glory!
This time, the exam was destined to be more competitive than the previous year.
The virtual screens were all set up!
Live streaming on the internet was a must!
The second batch of the newly reformed format of the College Entrance Exam officially began!

"value": "Chapter 22: Help Me Kick His Ass\nIt took two days to clear up the mayhem.\nMeng Qing Wu brought the group of people to register the new commerce.\nSetting up this new commerce would inevitably be a lot of work; applying for the registration was merely a part of it. However, by making use of Nangong Yun’s connections, all those cumbersome procedures were quickly taken care of.\nSuddenly, waves of wild beasts howls resounded from the street ahead.\n“Look! Wolf Knights!”\n“They’re the Wolf Tooth Mercenaries!”\n“The Wolf Tooth Mercenaries are giving welfare to the townspeople, let’s hurry to grab some!”\nHints of awe, veneration and worship were revealed through the townspeople’s gazes. The Wolf Tooth mercenary group was one of the three great mercenary groups under the flag of the Ye family. Their combined strength was so impressive that even the mayor had to give his respect. Then again, this was an group of more than ten thousand elite mercenaries!\nAt this time, more than a hundred awe-inspiring mercenaries were leading huge wolves, cows, and other kinds of magic beasts into the city streets. Every magic beast’s back carried: red wine, beer, cooking oil, bread, flour, and rice. The mercenaries were currently giving away these for free to the townspeople that they passed.\n“Everyone please do not rush!”\n“Everybody has a share, everybody has a share!”\n“Wolf Tooth Commerce is opening a branch in Tian Nan City!”\n“I am the branch’s president, Ye Han. Everyone please support us in the future!”\nAfter the townspeople had gotten free benefits, they left elated and in high spirits. They couldn’t help but sing merits and chant praises about the Wolf Tooth Mercenaries. These grandsons were pretty good at building hype!\nThe mercenaries were clustering around a youth sitting on the back of a battle wolf. He was not yet twenty years old and was wearing silver armor; appearing outstandingly mighty. His outer appearance could still count as light and handsome, his gaze was cold and fierce, having an overbearing and arrogant presence.\n“Isn’t this the great Ye Wei’s eldest son Ye Han?”\n“This is our Tian Nan City’s famous genius!”\n“Didn’t Ye Xiong send him to Central State’s main city to cultivate last year? Why did he get sent back here?”\n“……”\nThe kingdom of Nan Xia had eight major states, Central State was one of the eight major states.\nThe Ye family’s base was in the main city of the Central State. Tian Nan City was just a normal city within the influences of their power. Ye Xiong was an elder in the Ye family. He had been sent to Tian Nan City ten years ago to maintain and care for the Ye’s estates in the city.\nOut of the many sons that Ye Xiong had, he only cherished two.\nOne was the younger son, Ye Feng.\nOther one was the oldest son, Ye Han.\nBecause Ye Feng had unordinary talent in the field of alchemy, he was sent under Li Chang Yun to study. The oldest son had utmost talent for cultivation, so was sent to Central State for the purpose of leeching off the main family’s resources to grow stronger.\nWhen Ye Han’s cold gaze swept through the crowd, he suddenly noticed a tall, slim, and sexy figure. He immediately licked his lips, driving the wolf he was sitting on to gradually walk over: “President Meng Qing Wu, I haven’t seen you for more than a year. You’ve become even more beautiful and alluring.”\nMeng Qing Wu coldly replied: “Many thanks for the praise.”\n“I think you are probably curious, why would I come back?”\n“You’ve thought too much about it, I don’t have any interest in knowing.”\nYe Han’s eyes flashed with a thread of sinister viciousness, “A branch of Wolf Tooth Commerce is establishing itself in Tian Nan City, we have already collected all of the Han family’s estate, now it has all been given to us to manage. About this matter, I really have to thank you.”\nMeng Qing Wu bit her lips, but didn’t speak.\nYe Han proudly raised his head: “Though I have to say, Southern Cloud Commerce has really stirred up too much trouble, this time even the Ye family in the main city of Central State has noticed you guys. In fact, you know very well that in front of the Central State’s Ye family, you are less than ants. We merely need to move our fingers a bit to crush you to death.”\nBlatant threats!\nWho would have thought!\nMeng Qing Wu’s mood was slightly heavy. Right after the cruel wolf left, the wrathful tiger came, this time there was a big trouble!\nRight now if their goal of creating a new commerce was eyed with covetous eyes by this tiger, she feared that their hands and feet would be tied.\nYe Han squinted at Chu Tian who was standing beside her: “If I haven’t guessed wrong, this is the Chu Tian who seriously injured my brother, right?”\n“It is I, your grandfather that did it.” Chu Tian had never known how to write the word ‘polite’: “Why are you so shameless, daxiaojie has no interest in talking to you, yet you still shamelessly try to strike up a conversation where you aren’t wanted. Scram! Don’t block the road!”\nYe Han’s expression instantly changed.\nA couple of mercenaries pulled out their weapons at the same time: “Audacious!”\nYe Han waved his hands, causing the mercenaries to pull back their weapons. A playfully hideous grin hung from the corners of his mouth: “Tian Nan City’s Ye family had almost completely destroyed the Meng family. Six years have passed and our power has increased many folds, not to mention we have the support of the public. This time I’d like to see how you can resist our fury!”\nThis was basically admitting that what happened six years ago was all their doing.\nCould it be that their parents were really killed by the Ye family!\nThis bastard!\nMeng Ying Ying’s eyes turned red as she tried to rush out, but she was grabbed by Meng Qing Wu. Meng Qing Wu said to Ye Han: “Blackwater Commerce was playing with fire and got burned, this is something all people in Tian Nan City knows. Southern Cloud Commerce has suffered heavy losses, we have no intention to fight with you, hoping that the Ye family will lift your hands in mercy.”\nMeng Ying Ying was angry and could not understand why they had lower their stance to this person.\nThey were the enemies that had killed their parents!\nYe Han sat on the battle wolf, looking down on them with a high-up manner. He felt a delightful sensation in his heart: “Since you have humbled yourselves and begged me, then I will give you a chance. Destroy Chu Tian’s cultivation and give him to me. This way, you can have a temporary peace. As for the future, that will depend on whether you are obedient.”\nMeng Ying Ying glared at him while gnashing her teeth, yelling: “In your dreams!”\n“Relax, I don’t plan to kill him. I’ve heard that he has a bit of talent, and this young master loves and cherishes talent. I plan to let him live life like a dog. This is already a very kind and generous way of taking care of the matter. Else, with all the things he’s done, even being hacked to death by a thousand cuts would not be enough. You don’t have any other choice, either hand over Chu Tian or bear the fury of the Ye family. Choose one from the two, judge for yourselves.”\n“Have you said enough?” Chu Tian’s face was full of disdain. He impatiently stifled a long yawn and suddenly beckoned his finger towards Nangong Yun, saying: “Come here.”\nNangong Yun walked over: “What for?”\nChu Tian indifferently waved at her, saying in a commanding tone: “If you help me kick his ass, I’ll give you a bit more when we split the stock.”\n“Really? Thank you so much!” Nangong Yun revealed an expression of excitement: “Jie was just waiting for you to say this!”\nYe Han extremely dreaded Nangong Yun, however, he never believed that Nangong Yun would dare move against him.\nAfter all the Ye family’s power was on display here!\nEven so, the moment he saw Nangong Yun walking over, he was still a bit flustered: “Your blood is nothing but a side branch of the Nangong family. It wasn’t easy for Nangong Yi to rake in this mayor position. I urge you not to be too rampant, a mighty dragon cannot suppress a native serpent. If you anger the Ye family, you won’t even have the mayor position. Try to touch me and see!”\nWhat Ye Han said was right.\nNangong Yi was a branch member who was assigned to be Tian Nan City’s mayor. Nangong did not have any presence in the Central State and there were many opposing forces. Nangong Yi’s foundation in the Central State could not even be compared to the Xiong family. Therefore, they must be cautious, else they might encounter danger.\nThe Ye family was not a force to look down upon.\nNangong Yi had also repeatedly ordered his daughter, that no matter who she provoke, do not under any circumstance provoke the Ye family. This was the reason for Ye Han’s reassured and bold attitude.\nNangong Yun simply didn’t care.\n“The one surnamed Ye, stop trying to be high and mighty. Don’t think that I can’t through that you are only 6th rank Body Refinement. Though you can barely be considered a genius in Tian Nan City, you aren’t worth shit in the Central State. How I see it is that the Ye family doesn’t really consider you worthy for further teaching so they sent you back here to manage their business. Even though I am only a side branch of the Nangong family, do you really think that the Central State Ye family would offend one of the three strongest families in the kingdom for a side character like you? Stop giving yourself so much credit!”\nA year ago, Ye Han had carried high expectations when he set off for the Central State. Who would have thought the top genius of Tian Nan City, was a dime a dozen in the Central State.\nYe Han was completely neglected and was given the cold shoulder for a whole year. He took the initiative to go home. Due to the Blackwater Commerce incident, he picked up the leader position of the branch unit.\nNangong Yun’s clenched fist made crackling sounds, her body emitting a crimson light. A low and deep phoenix’s cry resounded, giving off a powerful intimidating pressure, forcing all the mercenaries to take a step back.\nThe bones in Nangong Yun’s finger crackled: “How do you want it beaten?”\n“Of course go for the face!”\nDid it even need to be asked?\nYe Han’s face turned pale as his voice began to tremble: “If you dare to touch me, I swear your family will not have peace!”\n“There is nothing in Tian Nan City that laoniang does not dare to do!” Nangong Yun’s imposing manner surged. Her body was covered with crimson magic energy, flashing through the air like a meteor. The palm of her right hand landed heavily on Ye Han’s face. Ye Han was slapped to the ground from the top of his wolf. Even a few of his teeth got slapped off.\nEveryone was dumbfounded!\nShe actually attacked!\nYe Han was one of Ye Xiong’s cherished sons, at the same time, he is one of the more outstanding geniuses in Tian Nan City. He was supposed to be basked in glory now that he has come back to Tian Nan City and taken on the role as the leader of the branch unit. Who would have known that he would be bitch slapped right after he entered the city!\nWhat was left of Ye family’s dignity?\nYe Han clutched his swollen face. His eyes emitted fires of rage. For someone as proud as him to be slapped in the face in view of the general public was the greatest humiliation: “You all will regret this!”\nPa!\nYe Han suffered another slap, flying into the crowd.\n“Trash, weren’t you very arrogant?” Nangong Yun went and grabbed him. Her beautiful face showed a vicious look: “Stop being a whimp! Retaliate!”\n“Young master!”\nThe mercenaries were in panic but no one dared to make a move on Nangong Yun.\nAfter all, Nangong Yun had the cultivation of peak 9th rank of Body Refinement!\nAfter all, Nangong Yun was the mayor’s daughter!\nOf the few people in Tian Nan City that could beat Nangong Yun, which one would dare to actually beat her up?\nYe Han angrily said: “Chu Tian! You dare to hide behind a woman! If you are a man, then face me fair and square at the Tian Nan City’s Summit twelve days from now!”\nNangong Yun’s brow knitted: “I’ll kill you first!”\nNangong Yun’s hot temper made her lose her reasoning.\nChu Tian immediately stopped her: “Enough!”\nYe Han had just came back from Central State, at the same time, he is Ye Xiong’s eldest son. Although the two slaps was humiliating, but it was still acceptable. At most the Ye will cause a bit of trouble for them. But if Nangong Yun really killed Ye Han on the spot, then there would be limitless consequences.\nAt least, now is not the time.\nWhat kind of figure was Nangong Yun?\nShe was a demon that reached peak 9th rank Body Refinement in a place with sparse resources like Tian Nan City!\nA super genius with unlimited potential and a divine spirit!\nPowerful personal strength combined with a strong background made her completely unrestricted by the law, even the mayor was helpless against her. No one would believe that such a demon would behave and completely listen to Chu Tian.\nChu Tian sized up Ye Han, his eyes showing a hint of provocation: “I accept your challenge, we will fight at that whatever meeting ten or so days from now.”\nNangong Yun’s eyes opened wide: “You are mad! You are only 3rd rank Body Refinement!”\nChu Tian was at 3rd rank Body Refinement.\nYe Han was at 6th rank Body Refinement.\nThe difference was not small!\nEven if Chu Tian could enter hyperfocus and use its ability, it would be hard to defeat Ye Han. The higher the rank, the bigger the differences was between each rank. It would not be like the beginning where he could beat someone 3 ranks over.\n“Don’t we still have a dozen days left? What’s the hurry?” Chu Tian generously waved his hand, “Tell this guy to scram! It makes me sick just looking at him!”\n“Are you deaf? Scram!” Nangong Yun glared at Ye Han, viciously saying: “Don’t let laoniang see you again, I will kick your ass everytime I see you!”\nYe Han clutched his swollen pig face, his expression carrying enmity and viciousness: “I will return the humiliation today hundreds fold! Let’s go!”\nThis group of ferocious and tough mercenaries were shaken by Nangong Yun’s despotic power, all dejectedly leaving. Ye Han felt extremely aggrieved. He could accept being oppressed by evil people in Central State, but he hadn’t thought that he’d be bullied even when he came back to Tian Nan City!\nChu Tian!\nWatch and see!\nAt the Summit, I will break your bones one by one to vent my anger!"

第22章
两天时间收拾完烂摊子。
梦轻舞带几人去申请注册新商会了。
这一个商会成立免不了一些准备工作，申请注册仅仅是第一步，不过利用南宫云的关系，繁琐的程序尽快能够搞定。
前面街道，突然传来一阵阵野兽嘶嚎声。
狼骑士！”
“狼牙佣兵的人！”
“狼牙佣兵给城民发福利了，大家快去抢啊！”
城民目光中流露出敬畏崇拜之色，狼牙佣兵团是叶家旗下三大佣兵团之一，综合实力非常的强悍，城主也不得不避让三分。 毕竟，这是一个有着上万精锐战士的大型佣兵团啊！
此刻，整整百余威风凛凛的佣兵，正牵着巨狼、巨牛之类的魔兽走到大街，每一头魔兽的背上装满：红酒、啤酒、食用油、面包、面粉、大米，正在免费发给路过的城民。
“大家不要抢！”
“人人有份，人人有份！”
“狼牙商会将在天南城开设分会！”
“这位就是分会长叶寒，请大家以后多多支持！”
城民免费领完福利兴高采烈的离开，免不了为狼牙佣兵歌功颂德。 这帮孙子炒作起来，倒也有一手嘛！
一个二十岁不到的少年坐在一头战狼背上，正被簇拥在佣兵中间，身穿银色盔甲，显得威武不凡，外表还算俊朗，目光冰冷凌厉，有一种强势倨傲的气势。
“这不是叶雄大人的长子叶寒吗？”
“这是我们天南城著名的天才啊！”
“叶雄大人不是一年前把他送到中州主城修炼了吗？
现在怎么又被派回来了？”
南夏国有八大州郡，中州就是八大州郡之一。
叶家总部就在中州主城，天南城是势力覆盖内的一座普通城市罢了，叶雄是叶家一位长老级人物，十年前就被派到天南城来，打理叶家在天南城的产业。
叶雄众多儿子中，最器重就两个。
一个小儿子叶峰。
一个大儿子叶寒。
叶峰具有不俗炼药天赋，因此送到李长云门下学习，大儿子修炼天赋极佳，因此送到中州，以便借家族资源更好成长。
叶寒冷冽目光扫过人群时，突然注意到一个高挑性感的身影，立刻舔了舔嘴唇，驾驭座狼缓缓走来：“梦轻舞会长，这一年多不见，你又变得更加美丽迷人了。”
梦轻舞冷淡回应：“多谢夸奖。”
“我想你多半在好奇，为什么我会回来？”
“想多了，我根本没有兴趣知道。”
叶寒目光闪过一丝阴狠，“天南城将成立狼牙商会的分会，已经收购韩家的全部产业，现在都归我管理了，这件事情说起来，我还真得感谢你。”
梦轻舞咬咬嘴唇，却没有说话。
叶寒高傲的仰起头说：“不得不告说，南云商会闹得有点太过分了，这次连中州主城的叶家都注意到了你们，其实你心里也应该清楚，你们在中州叶家面前，连蝼蚁都算不上，我们动动手指就能捏死你。”
**裸的威胁！
真的没有想到啊！
梦轻舞心情有些沉重，恶狼刚走，猛虎又来，这下子麻烦大了！
现在是准备成立新商会之际，若有这么一个可怕对手虎视眈眈，恐怕做什么事情都会束手束脚。
叶寒眯着眼睛看着旁边的楚天：“没有猜错的话，这就是把我弟弟害的重伤的楚天吧？”
“是你爷爷我。” 楚天从来就不知道客气两个字怎么写：“你这人怎么这么不要脸，大小姐没有兴趣跟你说话了，竟然还厚着脸皮上来搭讪。 滚吧！
叶寒脸色顿时就变了。
几个佣兵更是同时抽出兵器：“大胆！”
叶寒挥手让佣兵把兵器收回，嘴角挂起一丝略带玩味的狞笑：“天南城的叶家就差点把你们梦家彻底摧毁，六年来我们实力数倍增强，何况还有大宗家的支持，这次倒是想看看你们怎么抵挡我们的怒火！” 梦轻舞姐妹脸色一白。
这就基本承认六年前的事情就是他们干的。
难道说父母亲真是被叶家害死的！
这个畜生！
梦莹莹眼圈一红就要冲出来，却被梦轻舞一把拽住，梦轻舞对对叶寒说：“黑水商会引火**，这是天南城人所皆知的事情。 南云商会已经损失惨重，我们无心与你们为敌，希望叶家高抬贵手。”
梦莹莹愤愤不解，为什么要跟这种人低声下气。
他们是害死父母的仇人啊！
叶寒坐在战狼居高临下，一副高高在上样子，心中更有一丝快感：“既然你低声下气求我，那我就给你们一个机会，把楚天的修为废掉，再把他交给我。 这样，可保一时之安。
至于以后，那就要看你们是否听话了。” 梦莹莹怒目切齿喊道：“做梦！”
“放心，我不打算杀他，因为听说他有点才华，而本少爷爱才惜才，所以让他留一条狗命，这已经是很宽宏大量的处理方法了。 否则凭他做过的事情，千刀万剐也不为过。
“说够了吗？” 楚天满脸蔑视之色，不耐烦打一个长长哈欠，突然对南宫云勾勾手指：“你过来。”
南宫云走过来：“干嘛？”
楚天漫不经心摆摆手，用命令口吻说：“去帮我揍他，分股份的时候，我给你多加一点点。”
那太谢谢你了！” 南宫云露出一丝喜色：“姐就等你这句话！”
叶寒对南宫云十分忌惮之色，不过始终不相信南宫云敢对自己出手。
毕竟叶家势力摆在这里啊！
这会儿见到南宫云走过来，他还是显得有点慌张：“你一脉不过是南宫家的旁系，南宫毅好不容易捞一个城主职位，我劝你不要太嚣张，强龙还不压地头蛇，惹怒了叶家，城主都没得做，你倒是动我试试？ ！”
叶寒说的不错。
南宫毅是旁系，空降到天南城来做城主，中州没有家族势力扶持，还分布着不少敌对家族的势力，南宫毅在中州的根基甚至比不上熊家，所以必须谨言慎行，否则就会有危险。
叶家是一股不容小觑的势力。
南宫毅也三令五申对女儿说过，无论惹了谁都好，千万不要惹叶家，这就是叶寒有恃无恐的原因所在。
南宫云根本不在乎。
“姓叶的，你少在这里作威作福了，别以为我看不出来，你才炼体六重修为而已。 天南城充充天才还勉勉强强，中州主城连个屁都不是。
一年前，他满怀憧憬到中州主城，结果没有想到，他作为天南城顶尖的天才，结果到中州以后发现，同等天赋资质的人，几乎一捞一大把。
叶寒根本不受重视，被冷落一整年，所以主动申请回家，又遇上黑水商会的事情，所以捡了一个分会长职位。
南宫云拳头握得咔咔直响，周身顿时绽放出红色光芒，一声低沉的凤鸣，立刻释放出强烈威压，让周围佣兵都不由自主的退后一步。
南宫云把手指掰得咔咔直响：“你想怎么打？”
“打人当然要打脸了！”
这种问题还需要回答吗？
叶寒脸色变得苍白，声音已经开始颤抖了：“你敢动我，我保证你们家不得安宁！”
“天南城里就没有老娘不敢做的事！” 南宫云气势大盛，浑身笼罩在红色元力中，凌空一闪而过，犹如一颗流星，右手巴掌重重拍在叶寒脸上，从座狼背上直接拍到了地上，当场被打掉几颗牙齿。
众人都彻底傻眼了！
竟然真的动手了！
叶寒是叶雄最器重的一个儿子，同时是天南城最出色的天才之一，此刻从中洲返回天南，正风光无限的当上狼牙商会的分会长，谁知道刚刚进城，就被当场打脸了！
叶家的面子何在？
叶寒捂着肿胀的脸，两眼好像要喷出火，被人当众打脸，这对一向倨傲的他来说，简直是莫大羞辱：“你们一定会后悔的！”
啪！
叶寒又挨一巴掌，飞进人群里面。
“你这废物不是很嚣张么？” 南宫云把他抓起来，一张美丽脸颊凶神恶煞：“不要怂，你倒是还手啊！”
“大少爷！”
佣兵们露出惊慌的表情，却没一个人敢对南宫云出手。
毕竟，南宫云是炼体九重巅峰的修为啊！
毕竟，南宫云是城主的女儿啊！
姑且不说，整个天南城没有几个人打得过南宫云，即使真的能打过，又有几个人敢打呢？
你让一个女人帮你出头算什么本事！ 十二天后天南城将举办峰会，是男人就跟我在大会上光明正大比一场！”
南宫云柳眉倒竖：“我先毙了你再说！”
南宫云脾气火爆，有点失去理智。
楚天立刻制止：“够了！”
叶寒刚刚从中洲被派回来，同时也是叶雄的长子，挨两巴掌，虽然受辱，但也还能应付过去，顶多让南宫毅受到点麻烦。 若南宫云真的一时愤怒将其击毙，恐怕后患无穷啊。
至少，现在还不到时候。
南宫云是什么人物？
一个能在修炼资源贫瘠的天南城，十八岁左右跨入炼体九重的妖孽！
一个拥有神级元魂、潜力无限的超级天才！
强大的个人实力，雄厚的家族背景，让她在天南城无法无天我行我素，连城主都管不了她。 人们没有想到，这么一个魔女，在楚天面前，竟然出奇的听话。
楚天打量叶寒几眼，目光里闪过一丝讥讽：“我接受你的挑战，就在十多天后那个什么会上。”
南宫云瞪大眼睛：“你疯啦！ 你才炼体三重！”
楚天炼体三重。
叶寒炼体六重。
其中差距不是一星半点！
楚天就算拥有入微的能力，恐怕也难以战胜叶寒，毕竟等级越高，每级的差距越大，不可能像最开始一样跨越三级战胜对手的。
急什么？” 楚天非常大度的摆摆手，“让这个家伙赶紧滚蛋吧！ 看着他就恶心！”
滚！” 南宫云瞪叶寒，满脸凶狠说：“别让老娘再见你，否则见你一次打你一次！”
叶寒捂着猪头般的脸，露出一丝深深的怨毒之色：“今日之辱必百倍奉还！ 走！”
这帮凶悍的佣兵被南宫云的淫威震慑，全都灰溜溜的离开了。 叶寒心里憋屈到极点，在中州城被一些妖孽压制就算了，没想到回天南城也受到欺辱！
楚天！
等着瞧吧！
大会上定要将你的骨头一寸寸捏断，以泄心头之恨！

Chapter 22: Help Me Kick His Ass
It took two days to clear up the mayhem.
Meng Qing Wu brought the group of people to register the new commerce.
Setting up this new commerce would inevitably be a lot of work; applying for the registration was merely a part of it. However, by making use of Nangong Yun’s connections, all those cumbersome procedures were quickly taken care of.
Suddenly, waves of wild beasts howls resounded from the street ahead.
“Look! Wolf Knights!”
“They’re the Wolf Tooth Mercenaries!”
“The Wolf Tooth Mercenaries are giving welfare to the townspeople, let’s hurry to grab some!”
Hints of awe, veneration and worship were revealed through the townspeople’s gazes. The Wolf Tooth mercenary group was one of the three great mercenary groups under the flag of the Ye family. Their combined strength was so impressive that even the mayor had to give his respect. Then again, this was an group of more than ten thousand elite mercenaries!
At this time, more than a hundred awe-inspiring mercenaries were leading huge wolves, cows, and other kinds of magic beasts into the city streets. Every magic beast’s back carried: red wine, beer, cooking oil, bread, flour, and rice. The mercenaries were currently giving away these for free to the townspeople that they passed.
“Everyone please do not rush!”
“Everybody has a share, everybody has a share!”
“Wolf Tooth Commerce is opening a branch in Tian Nan City!”
“I am the branch’s president, Ye Han. Everyone please support us in the future!”
After the townspeople had gotten free benefits, they left elated and in high spirits. They couldn’t help but sing merits and chant praises about the Wolf Tooth Mercenaries. These grandsons were pretty good at building hype!
The mercenaries were clustering around a youth sitting on the back of a battle wolf. He was not yet twenty years old and was wearing silver armor; appearing outstandingly mighty. His outer appearance could still count as light and handsome, his gaze was cold and fierce, having an overbearing and arrogant presence.
“Isn’t this the great Ye Wei’s eldest son Ye Han?”
“This is our Tian Nan City’s famous genius!”
“Didn’t Ye Xiong send him to Central State’s main city to cultivate last year? Why did he get sent back here?”
“……”
The kingdom of Nan Xia had eight major states, Central State was one of the eight major states.
The Ye family’s base was in the main city of the Central State. Tian Nan City was just a normal city within the influences of their power. Ye Xiong was an elder in the Ye family. He had been sent to Tian Nan City ten years ago to maintain and care for the Ye’s estates in the city.
Out of the many sons that Ye Xiong had, he only cherished two.
One was the younger son, Ye Feng.
Other one was the oldest son, Ye Han.
Because Ye Feng had unordinary talent in the field of alchemy, he was sent under Li Chang Yun to study. The oldest son had utmost talent for cultivation, so was sent to Central State for the purpose of leeching off the main family’s resources to grow stronger.
When Ye Han’s cold gaze swept through the crowd, he suddenly noticed a tall, slim, and sexy figure. He immediately licked his lips, driving the wolf he was sitting on to gradually walk over: “President Meng Qing Wu, I haven’t seen you for more than a year. You’ve become even more beautiful and alluring.”
Meng Qing Wu coldly replied: “Many thanks for the praise.”
“I think you are probably curious, why would I come back?”
“You’ve thought too much about it, I don’t have any interest in knowing.”
Ye Han’s eyes flashed with a thread of sinister viciousness, “A branch of Wolf Tooth Commerce is establishing itself in Tian Nan City, we have already collected all of the Han family’s estate, now it has all been given to us to manage. About this matter, I really have to thank you.”
Meng Qing Wu bit her lips, but didn’t speak.
Ye Han proudly raised his head: “Though I have to say, Southern Cloud Commerce has really stirred up too much trouble, this time even the Ye family in the main city of Central State has noticed you guys. In fact, you know very well that in front of the Central State’s Ye family, you are less than ants. We merely need to move our fingers a bit to crush you to death.”
Blatant threats!
Who would have thought!
Meng Qing Wu’s mood was slightly heavy. Right after the cruel wolf left, the wrathful tiger came, this time there was a big trouble!
Right now if their goal of creating a new commerce was eyed with covetous eyes by this tiger, she feared that their hands and feet would be tied.
Ye Han squinted at Chu Tian who was standing beside her: “If I haven’t guessed wrong, this is the Chu Tian who seriously injured my brother, right?”
“It is I, your grandfather that did it.” Chu Tian had never known how to write the word ‘polite’: “Why are you so shameless, daxiaojie has no interest in talking to you, yet you still shamelessly try to strike up a conversation where you aren’t wanted. Scram! Don’t block the road!”
Ye Han’s expression instantly changed.
A couple of mercenaries pulled out their weapons at the same time: “Audacious!”
Ye Han waved his hands, causing the mercenaries to pull back their weapons. A playfully hideous grin hung from the corners of his mouth: “Tian Nan City’s Ye family had almost completely destroyed the Meng family. Six years have passed and our power has increased many folds, not to mention we have the support of the public. This time I’d like to see how you can resist our fury!”
This was basically admitting that what happened six years ago was all their doing.
Could it be that their parents were really killed by the Ye family!
This bastard!
Meng Ying Ying’s eyes turned red as she tried to rush out, but she was grabbed by Meng Qing Wu. Meng Qing Wu said to Ye Han: “Blackwater Commerce was playing with fire and got burned, this is something all people in Tian Nan City knows. Southern Cloud Commerce has suffered heavy losses, we have no intention to fight with you, hoping that the Ye family will lift your hands in mercy.”
Meng Ying Ying was angry and could not understand why they had lower their stance to this person.
They were the enemies that had killed their parents!
Ye Han sat on the battle wolf, looking down on them with a high-up manner. He felt a delightful sensation in his heart: “Since you have humbled yourselves and begged me, then I will give you a chance. Destroy Chu Tian’s cultivation and give him to me. This way, you can have a temporary peace. As for the future, that will depend on whether you are obedient.”
Meng Ying Ying glared at him while gnashing her teeth, yelling: “In your dreams!”
“Relax, I don’t plan to kill him. I’ve heard that he has a bit of talent, and this young master loves and cherishes talent. I plan to let him live life like a dog. This is already a very kind and generous way of taking care of the matter. Else, with all the things he’s done, even being hacked to death by a thousand cuts would not be enough. You don’t have any other choice, either hand over Chu Tian or bear the fury of the Ye family. Choose one from the two, judge for yourselves.”
“Have you said enough?” Chu Tian’s face was full of disdain. He impatiently stifled a long yawn and suddenly beckoned his finger towards Nangong Yun, saying: “Come here.”
Nangong Yun walked over: “What for?”
Chu Tian indifferently waved at her, saying in a commanding tone: “If you help me kick his ass, I’ll give you a bit more when we split the stock.”
“Really? Thank you so much!” Nangong Yun revealed an expression of excitement: “Jie was just waiting for you to say this!”
Ye Han extremely dreaded Nangong Yun, however, he never believed that Nangong Yun would dare move against him.
After all the Ye family’s power was on display here!
Even so, the moment he saw Nangong Yun walking over, he was still a bit flustered: “Your blood is nothing but a side branch of the Nangong family. It wasn’t easy for Nangong Yi to rake in this mayor position. I urge you not to be too rampant, a mighty dragon cannot suppress a native serpent. If you anger the Ye family, you won’t even have the mayor position. Try to touch me and see!”
What Ye Han said was right.
Nangong Yi was a branch member who was assigned to be Tian Nan City’s mayor. Nangong did not have any presence in the Central State and there were many opposing forces. Nangong Yi’s foundation in the Central State could not even be compared to the Xiong family. Therefore, they must be cautious, else they might encounter danger.
The Ye family was not a force to look down upon.
Nangong Yi had also repeatedly ordered his daughter, that no matter who she provoke, do not under any circumstance provoke the Ye family. This was the reason for Ye Han’s reassured and bold attitude.
Nangong Yun simply didn’t care.
“The one surnamed Ye, stop trying to be high and mighty. Don’t think that I can’t through that you are only 6th rank Body Refinement. Though you can barely be considered a genius in Tian Nan City, you aren’t worth shit in the Central State. How I see it is that the Ye family doesn’t really consider you worthy for further teaching so they sent you back here to manage their business. Even though I am only a side branch of the Nangong family, do you really think that the Central State Ye family would offend one of the three strongest families in the kingdom for a side character like you? Stop giving yourself so much credit!”
A year ago, Ye Han had carried high expectations when he set off for the Central State. Who would have thought the top genius of Tian Nan City, was a dime a dozen in the Central State.
Ye Han was completely neglected and was given the cold shoulder for a whole year. He took the initiative to go home. Due to the Blackwater Commerce incident, he picked up the leader position of the branch unit.
Nangong Yun’s clenched fist made crackling sounds, her body emitting a crimson light. A low and deep phoenix’s cry resounded, giving off a powerful intimidating pressure, forcing all the mercenaries to take a step back.
The bones in Nangong Yun’s finger crackled: “How do you want it beaten?”
“Of course go for the face!”
Did it even need to be asked?
Ye Han’s face turned pale as his voice began to tremble: “If you dare to touch me, I swear your family will not have peace!”
“There is nothing in Tian Nan City that laoniang does not dare to do!” Nangong Yun’s imposing manner surged. Her body was covered with crimson magic energy, flashing through the air like a meteor. The palm of her right hand landed heavily on Ye Han’s face. Ye Han was slapped to the ground from the top of his wolf. Even a few of his teeth got slapped off.
Everyone was dumbfounded!
She actually attacked!
Ye Han was one of Ye Xiong’s cherished sons, at the same time, he is one of the more outstanding geniuses in Tian Nan City. He was supposed to be basked in glory now that he has come back to Tian Nan City and taken on the role as the leader of the branch unit. Who would have known that he would be bitch slapped right after he entered the city!
What was left of Ye family’s dignity?
Ye Han clutched his swollen face. His eyes emitted fires of rage. For someone as proud as him to be slapped in the face in view of the general public was the greatest humiliation: “You all will regret this!”
Pa!
Ye Han suffered another slap, flying into the crowd.
“Trash, weren’t you very arrogant?” Nangong Yun went and grabbed him. Her beautiful face showed a vicious look: “Stop being a whimp! Retaliate!”
“Young master!”
The mercenaries were in panic but no one dared to make a move on Nangong Yun.
After all, Nangong Yun had the cultivation of peak 9th rank of Body Refinement!
After all, Nangong Yun was the mayor’s daughter!
Of the few people in Tian Nan City that could beat Nangong Yun, which one would dare to actually beat her up?
Ye Han angrily said: “Chu Tian! You dare to hide behind a woman! If you are a man, then face me fair and square at the Tian Nan City’s Summit twelve days from now!”
Nangong Yun’s brow knitted: “I’ll kill you first!”
Nangong Yun’s hot temper made her lose her reasoning.
Chu Tian immediately stopped her: “Enough!”
Ye Han had just came back from Central State, at the same time, he is Ye Xiong’s eldest son. Although the two slaps was humiliating, but it was still acceptable. At most the Ye will cause a bit of trouble for them. But if Nangong Yun really killed Ye Han on the spot, then there would be limitless consequences.
At least, now is not the time.
What kind of figure was Nangong Yun?
She was a demon that reached peak 9th rank Body Refinement in a place with sparse resources like Tian Nan City!
A super genius with unlimited potential and a divine spirit!
Powerful personal strength combined with a strong background made her completely unrestricted by the law, even the mayor was helpless against her. No one would believe that such a demon would behave and completely listen to Chu Tian.
Chu Tian sized up Ye Han, his eyes showing a hint of provocation: “I accept your challenge, we will fight at that whatever meeting ten or so days from now.”
Nangong Yun’s eyes opened wide: “You are mad! You are only 3rd rank Body Refinement!”
Chu Tian was at 3rd rank Body Refinement.
Ye Han was at 6th rank Body Refinement.
The difference was not small!
Even if Chu Tian could enter hyperfocus and use its ability, it would be hard to defeat Ye Han. The higher the rank, the bigger the differences was between each rank. It would not be like the beginning where he could beat someone 3 ranks over.
“Don’t we still have a dozen days left? What’s the hurry?” Chu Tian generously waved his hand, “Tell this guy to scram! It makes me sick just looking at him!”
“Are you deaf? Scram!” Nangong Yun glared at Ye Han, viciously saying: “Don’t let laoniang see you again, I will kick your ass everytime I see you!”
Ye Han clutched his swollen pig face, his expression carrying enmity and viciousness: “I will return the humiliation today hundreds fold! Let’s go!”
This group of ferocious and tough mercenaries were shaken by Nangong Yun’s despotic power, all dejectedly leaving. Ye Han felt extremely aggrieved. He could accept being oppressed by evil people in Central State, but he hadn’t thought that he’d be bullied even when he came back to Tian Nan City!
Chu Tian!
Watch and see!
At the Summit, I will break your bones one by one to vent my anger!

Along with a terrifying power that even the heavens and earth could not withstand, it heavily struck against the body of the incoming Wind Dragon. Dong!\nIn that instant of collision, a deep ear-piercing sound rang across the horizon. Thereafter, it carried along a violent wind as it wreaked havoc. Fine cracks began to appear on the Golden Battle Stage that seemed to be forged from gold.\nClearly, the Battle Stage was forged with a special material that made it extremely firm. Even if a Spirit Disaster expert were to attack the stage with their full power, it would still be tough to damage it. But right now, the confrontation between Mu Chen and Liu Qingyun created cracks on that very same stage. Thus, one could infer how powerful the impact was.\nROAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR! A dreadful gale wreaked havoc as the azure Wind Dragon issued a mournful roar, it’s radiant azure eyes were being suppressed by the black light at this instant.\nFaint changes occurred on Liu Qingyun’s face as well.\nBang!\nMu Chen maintained a calm expression with his gesture of embracing the air as if he was hugging the colossal Great Meru Demonic Pillar as it swung it down once again. As the demonic pillar was brandished down, it caused explosions in the space.\nBoom!\nThe azure Wind Dragon finally could not withstand the dreadful power of the demonic pillar as it was sent flying away, the azure light flickered as the dragon exploded. An azure light shot back as it fell into Liu Qingyun’s hands, returning back to the form of a halberd.\nLiu Qingyun firmly grasps onto the Divine Wind Halberd, but the power behind it had made him take several steps back before he could suppress the impact with his Spiritual Energy.\nLowering his head, he saw the Divine Wind Halberd shrouded in traces of a Baleful Aura. The Baleful Aura was exceptionally violent as if it was eroding the halberd in his hands. “Hmph.”\nLiu Qingyun made a cold snort as he poured the Spiritual Energy in his body into it in waves. The body of the halberd trembled as it dissipated the eroding Baleful Aura. Liu Qingyun raised his head and saw Mu Chen standing still on his original spot with the colossal demonic pillar hovering above his head as the Baleful Aura was endlessly emitting from the demonic pillar, almost like a pillar of the demonic gods.\n“What a good Ominous Artifact.” The Deans of various Spiritual Academies in midair were startled in their hearts. They could naturally sense the astonishing Baleful Aura coming from the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. Clearly, it had a history behind it. The ancient boundless feeling that it was giving off was definitely not something that an ordinary Divine Artifact could rival against.\nHowever, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar seemed to be in a sealed state at the moment. Otherwise, the Quasi-Divine Artifact of Liu Qingyun, the Divine Wind Halberd would definitely be gravely corroded by it.\nOutside the Battle Stage, countless students were filled with astonishment. No wonder Mu Chen could rise above others amongst the countless Spiritual Academies and stand in the Best 8, he truly was terrifying. Such a confrontation could already be considered as the peak amongst those in their age.\nOn the Battle Stage, Liu Qingyun looked at Mu Chen with a cold piercing gaze. He tightened his grip on the Divine Wind Halberd as his expression turned grave, he knew that if he wanted to defeat Mu Chen, he could no longer hold back any of his strength.\nHaaaaaah. Liu Qingyun inhaled a deep mouthful of chilled air as his eyes gradually turned jade-green as an azure-colored Spiritual Energy swept out in waves, engulfing the heavens and earth in an instant.\nAzure Spiritual Energy covered the skies, along with faint ripples that looked like steam that was quietly residing in midair. But, despite how quiet it was, those students with keen eyes had their faces changed.\nThey sensed a skin-chilling fluctuation spreading out in the sky.\nEveryone felt the Spiritual Energy pressure as they lightly smacked their lips, the power of his Spiritual Energy had already gone through Third Grade Spirit Disaster. Liu Qingyun was indeed powerful.\n“Mu Chen, you’re truly not bad.”\nLiu Qingyun’s figure slowly rose into the sky as he became shrouded within the boundless azure Spiritual Energy. His jade-green pupils looked as if there were tornadoes forming in them as he stared at Mu Chen.\n“Thus, to show that I am taking you seriously, I will use the strength of our Wind Spirit Clan to defeat you.”\nMu Chen’s black pupils were staring at Liu Qingyun as well. He naturally sensed the piercing ripples fluctuating behind the latter as his Spiritual Energy felt as sharp as a blade, spreading to every corner of this space.\nThe Spiritual Energy that Liu Qingyun obtained from his cultivation was different, to some extent, when compared to ordinary Spiritual Energy. The power behind his Spiritual Energy was stronger, which showed that the Spiritual Art that he had cultivated it wasn’t a simple one.\n“This must be the Wind Spiritual Energy of the Wind Spirit Clan… rumor has it that only those who belong to the Wind Spirit Clan can cultivate it. The attacking power of it is extremely powerful and it isn’t something ordinary Spiritual Energy can resist.” A few Deans slightly nodded their heads in the air. Generally speaking, only after stepping into the Sovereign Realm, would one experience changes in Spiritual Energy. Prior to that, the majority of the Spiritual Energy was similar, unless they had cultivated a special cultivating technique, but those were secrets that belonged to those mighty clans that ordinary people wouldn’t know about.\nThus, if ordinary people were to confront those belonging to those clans, they would definitely be at a disadvantage in terms of Spiritual Energy confrontation.\nFor ordinary Spiritual Energy, in order to hold the advantage, they would have to fork out Spiritual Energy that was several times more in order to achieve such an unusual Spiritual Energy suppression. “The special Spiritual Energy of the Wind Spirit Clan…”\nMu Chen muttered to himself as he narrowed his eyes. His hands started to form peculiar seals, the seals of the Great Pagoda Art.\nThe Great Pagoda Art was a mysterious cultivating technique left behind by his mother. It was extremely profound to the point that Mu Chen still couldn’t completely comprehend it. However, the Spiritual Energy produced from the Great Pagoda Art was remarkable.\nSince Liu Qingyun intended to compete with Spiritual Energy, then Mu Chen wouldn't mind giving it a try and compare, the Wind Spirit Clan’s Wind Spiritual Energy and his Great Pagoda Art, which was more superior.\nBoom!\nA black and white mix of Spiritual Energy swept out from Mu Chen’s body as he finished his hand seals. The black and white Spiritual Energy whistled through the heavens and earth as they mixed together, similar to the fusion of Yin and Yang.\nCompared to Liu Qingyun’s piercing Wind Spiritual Energy, the Great Pagoda Spiritual Energy didn’t show too many offensive characteristics. However, as it whistled, a surge of profundity started to spread out.\n“He’s going to use the Great Pagoda Art?” When Ling Xi saw that scene, her eyes lit up. Ever since she passed the Yin Scroll of the Great Pagoda Art to Mu Chen, she had never seen him execute the completed Great Pagoda Art.\nAlthough she knew that the Wind Spirit Clan was a considerable clan, even amongst those in the Great Thousand World, compared to the primordial clan behind Aunt Jing, it paled into insignificance in comparison.\nIn midair, when Liu Qingyun saw the majestic black and white Spiritual Energy behind Mu Chen, he slightly narrowed his eyes. Although the latter’s Spiritual Energy didn’t seem too special, he vaguely felt an abnormal fluctuation coming from it.\n“The Spiritual Energy cultivated by Mu Chen doesn’t seem like the ordinary ones?”\nWhen that thought flashed through Liu Qingyun’s mind, he quickly suppressed that thought. He couldn’t afford to have his mind wandering around at this moment as he refused the believe that Mu Chen could resist the Wind Spiritual Energy of their Wind Spirit Clan!\n“No matter what other means you have, I will definitely emerge victorious in this battle!”\nLiu Qingyun spoke in a deep voice. In the battle between their two teams, his match here was the crucial one as Mu Chen’s team still had Luo Li and she would definitely win her match. Perhaps the others might not be able to achieve results like her, there wasn’t a high chance in their victory. The ones called Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong were very powerful as well. Thus, unless he was capable of defeating Mu Chen, it was basically impossible for their team to get into the Best 4.\nHe definitely had to win this battle!\nLiu Qingyun’s gaze grew heavy as he spat a mouthful of white mist from his mouth, and formed seals with both of his hands. He couldn’t afford to hold himself back, even in the slightest!\n“Mu Chen, if you are truly capable, then try to receive this attack of mine!”\nLiu Qingyun rapidly formed his seals and at this instant, the torrential azure Spiritual Energy swept out, turning into countless rays of light as it turned into a colossi-complicated rune with the size of a few thousand meters up in the sky. From the looks of it, those runes appeared to be a Spiritual Array, but at the same time, there weren’t any ripples of a Spiritual Array.\nHoooooooof Phoooooooof. A mouthful of Blood Essence was spewed from Liu Qingyun’s mouth as it went into the colossal light array.\n“Divine Wind Art - Requesting Image of the Wind Ancestor!”\nLiu Qingyun’s expression was grave as he kowtowed towards the light array.\nBuzzzzz Buzzzzzzzz As Liu Qingyun kowtowed, violent winds started to sweep between the heavens and earth as everyone was startled to see gigantic tornadoes forming, they were wreaking havoc between the heavens and earth, emitting fearsome destructive powers at the same time.\nMu Chen’s gaze was fixed onto the colossal light array as an azure light suddenly soared into the skies. Within the azure light, a huge azure light image slowly took form.\nThe instant that azure light image appeared, an indescribable pressure started to spread throughout the heavens and earth.\nSome Deans in midair had their faces uncontrollably changed as they nervously stared at the azure light figure as their gazes fluctuated, along with mutters from their mouths. “To actually be able to summon the Ancestor of the Wind Spirit Clan, the Wind Ancestor’s Spiritual Image, out… that kid from the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy is in trouble.”"

第六百零八章
黑色魔柱重重的挥下，仿佛是魔龙在咆哮，携带着犹如连天地都无法承受的可怕力量，直接是在那无数道目光的注视下，狠狠的轰在了那笼罩而来的风龙庞大的身躯之上。
碰撞的霎那，一道低沉得令人耳膜都是剧痛的巨声陡然响彻天际，紧接着，无法形容的劲风风暴便是疯狂的肆虐而开，那犹如黄金所铸的金色战台，都是在此时被震出了一道道细微的裂纹。
这里的战台，显然是特殊材质所铸，坚固无比，就算是渡过神魄难的高手全力攻击，都很难对它造成破坏，然而眼下牧尘与柳青云的攻击对碰，却是震出了裂纹，由此可见那种冲击究竟是有多强。
可怕的劲风肆虐，那青色的风龙则是爆发出一道凄厉的咆哮声，原本耀眼的青光，竟是在此时被那黑色光芒尽数的压制。
柳青云的面色也是在此时微微一变。
砰！
牧尘面色平静，双臂虚抱，犹如是怀抱着那约莫百丈的大须弥魔柱一般，再度恨恨的砸下，魔柱挥下，成片成片的空气被生生碾爆。
咚！
青色风龙终于是承受不住魔柱的可怕力量，竟直接是是被抡得倒飞而出，青光闪烁间，青龙爆碎开来，一道青光倒射而回，化为一柄青光长戟落进了柳青云的手中。
柳青云手掌紧紧的抓住风神戟，但其上传过来的那股可怕力量，依旧是震得他连退了数步，方才运转灵力将那股力量尽数的抵御下来。
他低头一看，风神戟上，竟是缠绕着丝丝凶煞之气，那种凶煞之气格外的暴戾，仿佛是要侵蚀着他手中这柄风神戟一般。
柳青云一身冷哼，体内灵力犹如潮水般灌注而进，戟身一震。 便是将那些侵蚀而来的凶煞之气尽数的震散，旋即他抬头望向前方，牧尘静立，那一道巨大的黑色魔柱，悬浮在其头顶上空，庞大的魔柱之上，散发着无尽的凶煞之气，犹如魔神之柱。
而且这柄魔柱显然来历不小。 那种古老苍茫之感，绝不是寻常神器能够媲美。
只不过，眼下这大须弥魔柱，似乎是处于封印状态。 不然的话，恐怕柳青云那准神器级别的风神戟，必然会受到严重的侵蚀。
战台之外，那无数的学员则是惊叹不已，不愧是能够从那无数灵院之中脱颖而出的八强队伍啊，真是让人感到可怕，这种交锋，在他们这一年龄层次中，恐怕已经算是最为顶尖了。 战台中。
柳青云盯着牧尘，眼神冷冽如刀锋，旋即他的手掌缓缓紧握风神戟，面色则是彻彻底底的凝重了下来，因为他知道。 想要真正的战胜牧尘，恐怕这一次，他必须毫无保留的出手了。
呼。 柳青云深深的吸了一口有些冰凉的空气，旋即他的双目，竟是在此时逐渐的变得碧绿起来，青色的灵力，犹如滔滔河流一般席卷出来，眨眼间，便是覆盖了这片天地。
那些青色灵力弥漫虚空，轻轻的波动，犹如溪流一般安静的流淌在天空上，不过正是那种安静，却是令得不少眼力毒辣的学员面色都是一变。
因为他们感觉到了一种皮肤发寒的波动，在天空上悄然的蔓延。
场外的众人感受着那种灵力压迫，则是微微咂舌，这种程度的灵力强度，绝对已经渡过了三重神魄难，这柳青云，果然强悍。
“牧尘，你真的很不错。”
柳青云的身体缓缓的升空，他身处那磅礴青色灵力之中，碧绿的双目，盯着牧尘，眼中仿佛是有着风卷成形。
“所以，为了表示对你的重视，我会用我们风灵族的力量来打败你。”
牧尘黑色眸子同样是盯着柳青云，他自然也是能够感觉到那荡漾在后者周身的凌厉波动，那些灵力，仿佛是刀锋一般，弥漫在那片空间的所有角落。
这柳青云所修炼出来的灵力，与寻常灵力有所不同，那种灵力攻击性更强，显然，他所修炼的功法，也并不简单。
“那是风灵族的风灵力吧...据说只有风灵族的人方才能够修炼出来，攻击力极为的强横，寻常灵力，根本抵挡不住。” 天空上，有着一些灵院的院长微微点头，一般说来，只有在晋入了至尊境之后，灵力方才会出现脱胎换骨般的进化，而在这之前，大多灵力都是相同，除非拥有着一些特殊的修炼功法，而这种修炼功法都是各大种族内的秘法，外人无从得知。
所以，寻常人若是与这些种族的人拼斗的话，会在灵力的对碰上吃不小的亏。
因为相同的灵力，一般人试图占据上风，那就必须付出数倍的灵力，方才能够将那种特殊灵力压制。
牧尘喃喃自语，旋即双目微眯，他的双手在此时突然的结出了一道奇特的印法，那是大浮屠诀的印法。
大浮屠诀是他娘亲留给他的神秘功法，其玄奥程度，即便是现在的牧尘都无法彻底的参悟，不过凭借着大浮屠诀修炼出来的灵力来看，这卷功法，应当很不简单。
既然这柳青云想要比拼灵力，牧尘倒不介意来试试，究竟是他风灵族的风灵力强，还是他这大浮屠之力，更胜一筹？
轰！
黑白交融的灵力，伴随着牧尘印法的结成，顿时犹如潮水般自牧尘体内席卷而出，黑白灵力呼啸天地，黑白交融间，犹如阴阳融合。
与柳青云那充满着凌厉的风灵力相比，牧尘这浮屠灵力并没有显得太多的攻击性，只是悄然呼啸间，自有一股玄奥之感弥漫出来。
“要施展大浮屠诀了吗？” 战台外，灵溪见到这一幕，美目却是微微一亮，自从她将大浮屠诀的阴卷交给牧尘后，还从未见到过后者彻彻底底的施展完整的大浮屠诀。
虽然她知道风灵族是大千世界中名声不小的种族，不过，如果真要与静姨所在的那古老之族相比起来，恐怕只是小巫见大巫而已。
天空上，柳青云望着牧尘身后那磅礴的黑白灵力，眼神也是微凝，虽然后者的灵力看起来没有太多的特殊之处，但他却是隐隐的感觉到了一些不寻常的波动。
而且，他的风灵力，仿佛是在此时有些骚动起来，那种模样，犹如是遇见了什么大敌一般。
“这牧尘所修炼的灵力，似乎也不寻常？” 这道念头闪过柳青云的心中，不过旋即便是压下，这种时候，已经不能想太多，他可真的不相信，牧尘能够抗衡他们风灵族的风灵力！
“不管你有什么手段，这一场比试，我都赢定了！”
柳青云沉声道，他们这两支队伍的对决，他这里至关重要，因为牧尘那支队伍还有着洛璃，她必定会取胜，而其他人或许半斤八两，但他们的胜算也不算高，那叫做沈苍生与李玄通的青年，实力也很强，所以，除非他战胜牧尘，不然的话，他们这支队伍想要晋入前四，根本是不可能的事情。
这一战，他必须赢！
柳青云的眼神彻底的凝重，他深吐一团白气，双手陡然结印，他不能再有丝毫的保留了！
“牧尘，你若有本事，就再接我这一招试试！”
柳青云闪电般变幻的印法猛的凝固，只见得这一霎那，在其身后的滔滔青色灵力，陡然席卷而出，青色灵力仿佛是化为了无数道光束掠出，直接是在其前方的天空上，化为了一道约莫千丈庞大的复杂光纹，那些光纹看上去仿佛是灵阵，但却又没有灵阵的波动。
一口精血，自柳青云嘴中喷出，直接射进了那庞大的光阵之内。
“风神术，请风祖之影！”
柳青云面色凝重，竟是对着那庞大光阵凌空跪拜而下。 嗡嗡！
而随着柳青云的跪拜，这片天地间，突然间狂风大作，所有人惊骇的见到，一道道巨大的龙卷风暴凭空成形，它们肆虐在天地间，释放着可怕的破坏力。
牧尘的目光，却是紧紧的盯着庞大光阵之内，那里，突然青光冲天而起，而在那青光之内，一道巨大无比的青色光影，竟然是在此时缓缓的凝聚出来。
而随着那一道青色光影的出现，一股无法形容的威压之感，陡然间弥漫了天地。
天空上，那些灵院的院长们，面色都是在此时忍不住的一变，一些人紧紧的盯着那一道青色光影，眼光变幻，喃喃道：“竟然能够把风灵族的老祖，风祖的灵影召唤出来...那北苍灵院的小子，倒是要有麻烦了啊。”

Chapter 605 - Divine Wind Image
The black demonic pillar brandished down, issuing a sound that sounded like a Demon Dragon’s roar. Along with a terrifying power that even the heavens and earth could not withstand, it heavily struck against the body of the incoming Wind Dragon. Dong!
In that instant of collision, a deep ear-piercing sound rang across the horizon. Thereafter, it carried along a violent wind as it wreaked havoc. Fine cracks began to appear on the Golden Battle Stage that seemed to be forged from gold.
Clearly, the Battle Stage was forged with a special material that made it extremely firm. Even if a Spirit Disaster expert were to attack the stage with their full power, it would still be tough to damage it. But right now, the confrontation between Mu Chen and Liu Qingyun created cracks on that very same stage. Thus, one could infer how powerful the impact was.
ROAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR! A dreadful gale wreaked havoc as the azure Wind Dragon issued a mournful roar, it’s radiant azure eyes were being suppressed by the black light at this instant.
Faint changes occurred on Liu Qingyun’s face as well.
Bang!
Mu Chen maintained a calm expression with his gesture of embracing the air as if he was hugging the colossal Great Meru Demonic Pillar as it swung it down once again. As the demonic pillar was brandished down, it caused explosions in the space.
Boom!
The azure Wind Dragon finally could not withstand the dreadful power of the demonic pillar as it was sent flying away, the azure light flickered as the dragon exploded. An azure light shot back as it fell into Liu Qingyun’s hands, returning back to the form of a halberd.
Liu Qingyun firmly grasps onto the Divine Wind Halberd, but the power behind it had made him take several steps back before he could suppress the impact with his Spiritual Energy.
Lowering his head, he saw the Divine Wind Halberd shrouded in traces of a Baleful Aura. The Baleful Aura was exceptionally violent as if it was eroding the halberd in his hands. “Hmph.”
Liu Qingyun made a cold snort as he poured the Spiritual Energy in his body into it in waves. The body of the halberd trembled as it dissipated the eroding Baleful Aura. Liu Qingyun raised his head and saw Mu Chen standing still on his original spot with the colossal demonic pillar hovering above his head as the Baleful Aura was endlessly emitting from the demonic pillar, almost like a pillar of the demonic gods.
“What a good Ominous Artifact.” The Deans of various Spiritual Academies in midair were startled in their hearts. They could naturally sense the astonishing Baleful Aura coming from the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. Clearly, it had a history behind it. The ancient boundless feeling that it was giving off was definitely not something that an ordinary Divine Artifact could rival against.
However, the Great Meru Demonic Pillar seemed to be in a sealed state at the moment. Otherwise, the Quasi-Divine Artifact of Liu Qingyun, the Divine Wind Halberd would definitely be gravely corroded by it.
Outside the Battle Stage, countless students were filled with astonishment. No wonder Mu Chen could rise above others amongst the countless Spiritual Academies and stand in the Best 8, he truly was terrifying. Such a confrontation could already be considered as the peak amongst those in their age.
On the Battle Stage, Liu Qingyun looked at Mu Chen with a cold piercing gaze. He tightened his grip on the Divine Wind Halberd as his expression turned grave, he knew that if he wanted to defeat Mu Chen, he could no longer hold back any of his strength.
Haaaaaah. Liu Qingyun inhaled a deep mouthful of chilled air as his eyes gradually turned jade-green as an azure-colored Spiritual Energy swept out in waves, engulfing the heavens and earth in an instant.
Azure Spiritual Energy covered the skies, along with faint ripples that looked like steam that was quietly residing in midair. But, despite how quiet it was, those students with keen eyes had their faces changed.
They sensed a skin-chilling fluctuation spreading out in the sky.
Everyone felt the Spiritual Energy pressure as they lightly smacked their lips, the power of his Spiritual Energy had already gone through Third Grade Spirit Disaster. Liu Qingyun was indeed powerful.
“Mu Chen, you’re truly not bad.”
Liu Qingyun’s figure slowly rose into the sky as he became shrouded within the boundless azure Spiritual Energy. His jade-green pupils looked as if there were tornadoes forming in them as he stared at Mu Chen.
“Thus, to show that I am taking you seriously, I will use the strength of our Wind Spirit Clan to defeat you.”
Mu Chen’s black pupils were staring at Liu Qingyun as well. He naturally sensed the piercing ripples fluctuating behind the latter as his Spiritual Energy felt as sharp as a blade, spreading to every corner of this space.
The Spiritual Energy that Liu Qingyun obtained from his cultivation was different, to some extent, when compared to ordinary Spiritual Energy. The power behind his Spiritual Energy was stronger, which showed that the Spiritual Art that he had cultivated it wasn’t a simple one.
“This must be the Wind Spiritual Energy of the Wind Spirit Clan… rumor has it that only those who belong to the Wind Spirit Clan can cultivate it. The attacking power of it is extremely powerful and it isn’t something ordinary Spiritual Energy can resist.” A few Deans slightly nodded their heads in the air. Generally speaking, only after stepping into the Sovereign Realm, would one experience changes in Spiritual Energy. Prior to that, the majority of the Spiritual Energy was similar, unless they had cultivated a special cultivating technique, but those were secrets that belonged to those mighty clans that ordinary people wouldn’t know about.
Thus, if ordinary people were to confront those belonging to those clans, they would definitely be at a disadvantage in terms of Spiritual Energy confrontation.
For ordinary Spiritual Energy, in order to hold the advantage, they would have to fork out Spiritual Energy that was several times more in order to achieve such an unusual Spiritual Energy suppression. “The special Spiritual Energy of the Wind Spirit Clan…”
Mu Chen muttered to himself as he narrowed his eyes. His hands started to form peculiar seals, the seals of the Great Pagoda Art.
The Great Pagoda Art was a mysterious cultivating technique left behind by his mother. It was extremely profound to the point that Mu Chen still couldn’t completely comprehend it. However, the Spiritual Energy produced from the Great Pagoda Art was remarkable.
Since Liu Qingyun intended to compete with Spiritual Energy, then Mu Chen wouldn't mind giving it a try and compare, the Wind Spirit Clan’s Wind Spiritual Energy and his Great Pagoda Art, which was more superior.
Boom!
A black and white mix of Spiritual Energy swept out from Mu Chen’s body as he finished his hand seals. The black and white Spiritual Energy whistled through the heavens and earth as they mixed together, similar to the fusion of Yin and Yang.
Compared to Liu Qingyun’s piercing Wind Spiritual Energy, the Great Pagoda Spiritual Energy didn’t show too many offensive characteristics. However, as it whistled, a surge of profundity started to spread out.
“He’s going to use the Great Pagoda Art?” When Ling Xi saw that scene, her eyes lit up. Ever since she passed the Yin Scroll of the Great Pagoda Art to Mu Chen, she had never seen him execute the completed Great Pagoda Art.
Although she knew that the Wind Spirit Clan was a considerable clan, even amongst those in the Great Thousand World, compared to the primordial clan behind Aunt Jing, it paled into insignificance in comparison.
In midair, when Liu Qingyun saw the majestic black and white Spiritual Energy behind Mu Chen, he slightly narrowed his eyes. Although the latter’s Spiritual Energy didn’t seem too special, he vaguely felt an abnormal fluctuation coming from it.
“The Spiritual Energy cultivated by Mu Chen doesn’t seem like the ordinary ones?”
When that thought flashed through Liu Qingyun’s mind, he quickly suppressed that thought. He couldn’t afford to have his mind wandering around at this moment as he refused the believe that Mu Chen could resist the Wind Spiritual Energy of their Wind Spirit Clan!
“No matter what other means you have, I will definitely emerge victorious in this battle!”
Liu Qingyun spoke in a deep voice. In the battle between their two teams, his match here was the crucial one as Mu Chen’s team still had Luo Li and she would definitely win her match. Perhaps the others might not be able to achieve results like her, there wasn’t a high chance in their victory. The ones called Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong were very powerful as well. Thus, unless he was capable of defeating Mu Chen, it was basically impossible for their team to get into the Best 4.
He definitely had to win this battle!
Liu Qingyun’s gaze grew heavy as he spat a mouthful of white mist from his mouth, and formed seals with both of his hands. He couldn’t afford to hold himself back, even in the slightest!
“Mu Chen, if you are truly capable, then try to receive this attack of mine!”
Liu Qingyun rapidly formed his seals and at this instant, the torrential azure Spiritual Energy swept out, turning into countless rays of light as it turned into a colossi-complicated rune with the size of a few thousand meters up in the sky. From the looks of it, those runes appeared to be a Spiritual Array, but at the same time, there weren’t any ripples of a Spiritual Array.
Hoooooooof Phoooooooof. A mouthful of Blood Essence was spewed from Liu Qingyun’s mouth as it went into the colossal light array.
“Divine Wind Art - Requesting Image of the Wind Ancestor!”
Liu Qingyun’s expression was grave as he kowtowed towards the light array.
Buzzzzz Buzzzzzzzz As Liu Qingyun kowtowed, violent winds started to sweep between the heavens and earth as everyone was startled to see gigantic tornadoes forming, they were wreaking havoc between the heavens and earth, emitting fearsome destructive powers at the same time.
Mu Chen’s gaze was fixed onto the colossal light array as an azure light suddenly soared into the skies. Within the azure light, a huge azure light image slowly took form.
The instant that azure light image appeared, an indescribable pressure started to spread throughout the heavens and earth.
Some Deans in midair had their faces uncontrollably changed as they nervously stared at the azure light figure as their gazes fluctuated, along with mutters from their mouths. “To actually be able to summon the Ancestor of the Wind Spirit Clan, the Wind Ancestor’s Spiritual Image, out… that kid from the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy is in trouble.”

To the extreme north of the Northern Sea was a floating ice continent. This ice continent possessed a circumference of over ten thousand miles. In the Northern Sea, it could be considered a relatively large ice island.\nCold air lingered on this ice island all year round. Occasionally, cold wind would even blow through the island.\nA strand of Light of Daytime penetrated through the lingering cold air with great difficulty. In the misty vagueness, one could see two figures wearing white gowns walking over side by side from the distant place. It was Qin Yu and Jiang Li. After teleporting over to this ice island, Qin Yu and Jiang Li were in no rush to find Zuo Qiulin. Instead, the two of them began to appreciate the scenery of this ice island.\n“It’s truly cold here. I reckon that ordinary Deities would have to wear Divine Artifact Armors in order to withstand the cold.” Qin Yu said with a smile. He was holding Li’er’s hand with one hand and embracing her with the other.\nThe ground and the other constructions of the ice island were practically all formed with those nearly transparent ice chunks. These ice chunks of the Divine Realm’s utmost northern region have never melted for hundreds of millions of years now. Their firmness was definitely not inferior to ordinary hard rocks.\nUnder the reflection of the Light of Daytime, the ice chunks that covered the ice island were all radiating a gorgeous colorful light. It looked like a place of dreams.\n“It’s truly beautiful. It would be pretty nice to live in this sort of place.” Jiang Li looked at her surroundings. Her eyes were filled with joy.\n“Brother Yu, don’t we have to go and find that Zuo Qiulin? Why aren’t we going over to her place directly?” Jiang Li asked. Ever since they stepped onto this ice island, she had been pondering this in her heart. She had merely not asked about this till now because the scenery of the ice island was too beautiful.\nQin Yu smiled. “The scenery here is very beautiful. That’s why I’ve decided to have you enjoy it for a bit longer.”\nJiang Li immediately started smiling.\nJiang Li thought about it for a bit. She too thought that Qin Yu was being thoughtful.\n“After all, we have come here not to fight her but to invite her. Thus, we naturally cannot offend her.” Qin Yu smiled. He proceeded to continue onward with Li’er.\nA mansion formed with hundred of millions of years old cold ice and enormous cyan stones appeared. This mansion did not occupy a very large area. Its circumference was only that of several hundred meters. On the top of the entrance of the mansion were the words ‘White Ice Mansion.’\nThe master of the White Ice Mansion, Bai Yiju, was very reputed on the ice island. Although the island master of the ice island had never been set in place, the majority of the ice island’s residents already considered Bai Yiju as the island master.\nBai Yiji was very powerful and also very friendly.\nThe White Ice Mansion did not have many people in it. There were a bit more than ten people in total. The people of the White Ice Mansion all knew very well that their mansion master loved to drink tea alone besides the ice flowers every morning.\nOnce Bai Yiju thought of his decision from back then, he started to feel that he was brilliant.\n“If I had stayed in the Thunder Punishment City, then I reckon I would not have the peaceful and carefree days of today.” Bai Yiju sighed in his heart. “Although the days are extremely good, that Godking of Death in the depths of the ice island is the greatest inconvenience.”\nOnce he thought of the uncrowned king of the edge of the Northern Sea, Bai Yiju began to feel helpless.\nThe Godking of Death who lived at the seafloor of this island, although she would not wantonly massacre the ice island’s residents, the existence of the Godking of Death below them had caused the residents of the ice island to be trembling with fear at all times.\n“However, at the very least this Godking of Death has not grieved to a state of madness. As long as one do not set foot on her territory, she will not kill you.” Bai Yiju smiled helplessly.\nHad the Godking of Death truly grieved to a state of madness, then the residents of the entire ice island would likely have run away already.\nA simple and elegant voiced sounded beside Bai Yiju’s ears. Bai Yiju was unable to conceal his shock. To be able to approach him, a High Level Heavenly Deity, without him noticing at all, how powerful was this person who had come?\nBai Yiju turned around to look. He saw a young male and female wearing white gowns walking toward him with smiles on their faces.\n“These two people are extremely powerful.” Bai Yiju discovered that although the two people were standing before him, he was incapable of sensing their strength at all. Such an enormous gap had shocked Bai Yiju. He even suspected that… the two people before him were both Godkings! However, he didn’t dare to believe that.\nBai Yiju immediately stood up. With a slightly respectful tone, he said. “I am Bai Yiju, what purpose might bring you sir and lady to this little mansion of mine? If there is anything that you need, Yiju would definitely assist with my full strength.”\nDuring the time when he was asking them, Bai Yiju had already firmly remembered the appearance of the two people before him.\n“The two of them are so intimate. That woman’s belly is also swelled. I reckon she’s pregnant. It would appear that these two people are a married couple. A pair of married Godkings? Was there such a couple in the Divine Realm?” Bai Yiju began to think in his heart.\nQin Yu asked with a smile. “I wish to ask about matters regarding this ice island.”\nBai Yiju promptly said. “Please ask away. This Yiju has lived on this ice island for hundreds of millions of years. There ought to not be many things on this ice island that this Yiju doesn’t know of.”\n“Do you know Zuo Qiulin?” Jiang Li directly asked.\n“Zuo Qiulin?” Bai Yiju was stunned.\nHe had truly never heard of this name before. After all, the Godking of Death had never left her own mansion before. Furthermore, Zuo Qiulin did not have the patience to inform her name to those Deities.\n“It’s that Godking who lives below the ice island.” Qin Yu said.\n“Precisely. Could you please tell us everything you know about this Godking of Death in details? Do not worry about the Godking of Death, she does not know that we are in contact with you.” Qin Yu said with a smile.\nBai Yiju’s complexion relaxed. He then said. “Sir and Lady, this Yiju was not afraid that the Godking of Death knew that I had came in contact with you two. Merely, this Yiju was a bit worried for you two.”\n“Why is that?” Qin Yu looked to Bai Yiju.\nBai Yiju immediately began to talk. “Speaking of this Godking of Death, I reckon there are not many people who know exactly how long she has been below this ice island. However, although the reputation of the Godking of Death is well known, she conducts herself according to her promise.”\n“According to her promise? What sort of promise?” Qin Yu promptly asked.\nBai Yiju nodded and said. “A very very long time ago, at that time, I had not arrived at this ice island yet. At that time, a matter began to spread through this ice island… the Godking of Death had promised that as long as others do not step onto the territory of her Ice Mansion Underworld, she would not kill anyone from the ice island. However, once someone comes too close to her Ice Mansion Underworld, then they would definitely be killed.”\n“In the past, there were people who didn’t believe that. However… out of all the people we know of that have entered the territory of her Ice Mansion Underworld, they have all died.” A trace of fear flashed through Bai Yiju’s eyes.\nTo lose one’s soul, it naturally meant that one would be dead.\nQin Yu and Jiang Li glanced at each other. The two of them did not have a huge shock.\nThe two of them knew very well that this Godking of Death had researched the soul thoroughly like the Godking of Life. The Godking of Life was capable of restoring a person’s soul, whereas the Godking of Life was capable of destroying a person’s soul.\nTo be able to kill a Mid Level Heavenly Deity so easily could not be considered much.\nIf the Godking of Death deliberately killed that Mid Level Heavenly Deity, then it wouldn’t be too crazy.\nHowever, if it was merely the black mist that surrounded the Godking of Death’s Ice Mansion Underworld that managed to easily kill that Mid Level Heavenly Deity, then it would be truly terrifying.\n“Sir and Lady, this Yiju knows that you two are both people who possess remarkable abilities. It’s just that this Godking of Death is an extremely heartless person who loves to kill others the most. Furthermore, she loved killing experts even more.” Bai Yiju said solemnly. “Have the two of you discovered that in the range of hundreds of millions of miles the surrounding thousands of islands, there is not a single person living on them?”\nQin Yu exclaimed in surprise.\nHad it not been for Bai Yiju mentioning this, Qin Yu really wouldn’t have noticed it. It was extremely ordinary for there to be numerous islands in the Northern Sea. The majority of the islands had quite a few residents on them.\nHowever, the large number of islands surrounding the ice island were all void of people.\n“In that case, you all can return to the Divine Realm.” Jiang Li said.\nBai Yiju laughed bitterly, shook his head and said. “Those of us from the ice island don’t dare to leave the ice island. That’s because… this place is truly too far from the main continent of the Divine Realm. Much less the main continent of the Divine Realm, none of us would be able to reach past the uninhabited islands surrounding this ice island within a year’s time. Since we are unable to fly over the uninhabited islands, once the Godking of Death decides to kill people, those of us who had left the ice island would definitely be killed.”\nQin Yu and Jiang Li suddenly came to a realization.\n“However, Sir and Lady, you all need not worry for us. Our days on the ice island are extremely peaceful. The ice island’s area is also relatively big, and the population of the ice island is quite large too. Furthermore, the territory of the Godking of Death’s Ice Mansion Underworld is not that huge either. As long as we avoid it, there will be no danger to our lives.” Bai Yiju said with a smile.\nQin Yu and Jiang Li glanced at each other. It could be said that they now both had some knowledge of the Godking of Death, Zuo Qiulin, that they had never met before.\n“In that case, we shall take our leave.” Qin Yu said at once. He did not wish to ask anymore. That was because Qin Yu can tell based on what he had heard that… the inhabitants of this ice island did not know much about Zuo Qiulin.\nBai Yiju promptly bowed.\nQin Yu and Jiang Li turned around to leave. However, that Bai Yiju suddenly stopped them and said. “Sir and Lady, this Yiju has suddenly recalled a legend regarding the Godking of Death.”\nBai Yiju promptly said. “Before this Yiju had arrived at this ice island, there was a legend on this ice island. It said that the Godking of Death had killed a Godking before.”\n“Afterwards, another Godking showed up and severely injured the Godking of Death. Since then, the Godking of Death has been staying in her Ice Mansion Underworld the entire time and rarely comes out to kill.” Bai Yiju said. “Of course, this is merely a legend. This Yiju is uncertain whether this legend is true or not.”\nQin Yu nodded and slightly smiled. “Thanks.”\nAfter that, Qin Yu and Jiang Li both teleported away from the White Ice Mansion and reached the center region of the ice island. The center region of this ice island was also the only uninhabited region of the ice island.\nBlack mist was lingering over this region. This was an absolute land of death.\nAs for that Godking of Death Zuo Qiulin, Qin Yu was able to clearly sense that she was at the depths below the island.\nThe circumference of the ice island was actually over a hundred thousand miles. The surface above the ocean only possessed the circumference of ten thousand miles. However, on the bottom, it was way greater than that.\nAt the bottom of the ocean, this ice island’s circumference was greater than a hundred thousand miles.\nAs for Zuo Qiulin, she was roughly located in an ice cave palace several thousand miles below sea level."

第二十一章 神界大陆四周便是无尽的海洋。
在北海极北的区域。 有着一座漂浮地冰之大陆，这块陆地面积也有方圆万里，在北海中，也算是比较大地一座冰岛了。 这冰岛之上常年寒气萦绕，时而还有着寒风吹过。
一缕白昼之光从那萦绕的寒气中艰难穿透了进来，模模糊糊之中。
隐约可见两个人影并肩从远处走来，正是披着白色锦袍的秦羽和姜立二人，秦羽和姜立瞬移到了这块冰岛陆地上也不着急去找左秋琳，反而彼此欣赏着着冰岛风光。 “这里可真是够冷的。
一般的神人估计都要穿上神器战衣才能抗得住。” 秦羽笑着说道，一手牵着立儿，一手半拥着立儿。 冰岛的陆地以及其他建筑，几乎都是由那几近透明的冰块建造而成。
这些冰块处于这神界极北之地。 已然亿万年不曾融化，坚硬的程度绝对不下于一般的坚石。
在白昼之光的反射下，整个冰岛地面的冰块都散发着绚丽的彩光，犹如梦幻中世界一般。 “真地好漂亮。
姜立看着四周。 眼中尽是喜悦。 “羽哥。
我们不是要去找那左秋琳吗?怎么不直接过去?”姜立询问道。 自从踏上这冰岛她心中便有了这个疑惑，只是一路上景包．太美，她便没问。
秦羽一笑：“这里景色很不错，所以让你多看一会儿啊。” 姜立顿时笑了。
姜立想了想。
也认为秦羽想的周到。 “毕竟。
我们来这不是战斗，而是邀请左秋琳。 自然不能得罪了她。”
那萦绕的寒气渐渐散了。 一座由亿万年寒冰以及青色巨石构成地一座府邸出现在眼前，这座府邸占地面积并不大。 方圆也不过数百米而已。
白冰府地主人‘白逸居’在冰岛上非常地有威信。 虽然整个冰岛的岛主没有完全定下来。 可是绝大多数冰岛居民心中。
已经将白逸居当成了岛主。
白逸居实力强，为人友善。 而白冰府中地人并不多，总共才十余人，白冰府地人都非常清楚，他们的府主大人每日早晨都喜欢一人对着冰花品茶。
白逸居一想到自己当初的选择。
便不由认为自己英明。 “如果我当初真地呆在雷罚城，恐怕就没有今日悠闲地生活了。” 白逸居心中暗叹一声。
一想到北海之极的无冕之王，白逸居心中便有些无奈。
居于这座海岛海底深处的‘死亡神王’虽然不会对冰岛进行大肆杀戮，可是死亡神王地存在。 却让冰岛地人心中总是有些胆颤。
“不过这死亡神王，总算不是伤心病狂。 只要不踏入她那块区域，她便不会杀人。” 白逸居无奈一笑。
如果死亡神王真地伤心病狂。 估计整个冰岛上地居民早就逃掉了。
“真是好闲情、好雅致。”
白逸居转头看去，只见穿着白色锦袍地一对年轻男女微笑着走了过来。
白逸居发现对方虽然站在他面前，他却一点感应不到对方实力。 如此大的差距让白逸居心中震惊，他甚至于有了推测——眼前两人都是神王!可是他不敢相信。
不知道两位。 来到我这小小府邸有什么事情?如若有事。 逸居定会全力帮忙。”
在问话地时候。 白逸居已经将眼前二人形象记住了。
看来这二人是夫妇。 一对神王夫妇?神界有吗?”白逸居心中暗想着。
秦羽微笑询问道：“我想询问一下有关这冰岛地事情。”
白逸居连忙说道：“两位请尽管询问，逸居在这冰岛上也居住了亿万年，这冰岛上应该还没什么逸居不知道地。”
“你知道左秋琳吗?”姜立直接出声说道。
“左秋琳?”白逸居一怔。
他还真的没听过这个名字。 毕竟死亡神王几乎从来不出自己的府邸，加上左秋琳可没那个耐心将自己名字告诉这些天神。
“就是居住在冰岛下方的那位神王。” 秦羽说道。
“正是。 你是否能将有关这死亡神王地事情详细对我们说说?不必担心死亡神王，她并知晓我们和你接触。” 秦羽微笑着询问道。
白逸居脸色缓了下来，这才说道：“两位，逸居也不是担心死亡神王知道二位和逸居接触。 只是逸居有点为二位担心。”
“怎么了?”秦羽看着这白逸居。
白逸居当即打开了话匣：“说到这死亡神王，她在冰岛到底有多久，估计没几个人知道，不过这死亡神王虽然声名在外，可是为人还是极为遵守承诺的。”
“遵守承诺?什么承诺?”秦羽立即追问道。
白逸居点头道：“在很久很久以前，那时候我还没有到这冰岛。 那时候冰岛便流传起了一件事情——死亡神王承诺过，只要不踏入她那‘冰府地狱’地范围。
“过去有人不相信。 可是……历史上我们知晓的人当中。
任何一个进入那冰府地狱范围的人，都死了。”
自然是死了。 秦羽和姜立相视一眼心中却没太大的惊讶。
他们都很清楚。 这死亡神王和生命神王一样，对于灵魂研究的极为透彻，生命神王是修复人灵魂。 而死亡神王却是毁灭人的灵魂。
如此轻松杀死一个中部天神。
如果死亡神王存心杀中部天神。
可如果，仅仅是死亡神王地‘冰府地狱’周围地黑色气息，便能够轻易杀死中部天神。
只是这死亡神王为人绝情狠辣。 最喜欢的就是杀人。 特别喜欢杀高手。”
秦羽惊咦了一声。
这白逸居不说，秦羽还没注意到。 北海上海岛众多是很正常的，几乎大部分岛屿都有着不少居民。 可是冰岛周围大量的海岛都是空无一人的。
而且……每年都会杀!随着她地不断杀戮，冰岛周围地无人区范围是越来越大。”
“那你们可以回到神界去。” 姜立说道。
白逸居苦笑一声摇头说道：“我们冰岛地人。 却从来不敢离开冰岛的。 因为……这里距离神界大陆实在太遥远了。
秦羽、姜立心中恍然。
“不过两位也不必为我们担心，我们在冰岛上也算是过着平静的日子，这冰岛范围也算可以，人口也不少。 而且死亡神王的‘冰府地狱’范围并不大，只要我们避开。
白逸居笑着说道。 秦羽和姜立相视一眼心中对那素未蒙面的死亡神王‘左秋琳’也算有了一些认识。
秦羽当即说道，他也不想多问了，因为秦羽听得出来……整个冰岛对于左秋琳知晓的都极为少。
白逸居连忙躬身行礼。
秦羽便和姜立转身要离开，那白逸居忽然出手道：“两位，逸居忽然想起了一件关于死亡神王地传说。”
白逸居连道：“在逸居还未到冰岛之前，冰岛上有着一则传说，说死亡神王曾经击杀过一位神王。” 秦羽心中一惊。
击杀神王?神王是可以瞬移地，要击杀可不是那么容易地。 “而后来，又有一位神王过来。
秦羽点头微微一笑：“谢了。”
随即秦羽带着姜立，直接施展开瞬移离开了白冰府，来到了冰岛的中心区域，冰岛地中心区域也是整个冰岛上唯一的无人区域。
这里黑气萦绕，是绝对地死亡之地。
至于那死亡神王左秋琳。 秦羽清晰感应到那左秋琳正呆在海岛下方的极深之处。
整个冰岛地厚度，其实已然过十万里。 在海面之上地范围只有方圆万里，而海面之下，却是越来越粗。
等到海底，足有方圆数十万里。
而左秋琳。 便是呆在大概海平面以下数千里处地一处冰穴宫殿中。

Volume 17 – Godking’s Blood – Chapter 21 – The Edge of the Northern Sea
The surroundings of the Divine Realm’s continent were covered with boundless oceans. To the extreme north of the Northern Sea was a floating ice continent. This ice continent possessed a circumference of over ten thousand miles. In the Northern Sea, it could be considered a relatively large ice island.
Cold air lingered on this ice island all year round. Occasionally, cold wind would even blow through the island.
A strand of Light of Daytime penetrated through the lingering cold air with great difficulty. In the misty vagueness, one could see two figures wearing white gowns walking over side by side from the distant place. It was Qin Yu and Jiang Li. After teleporting over to this ice island, Qin Yu and Jiang Li were in no rush to find Zuo Qiulin. Instead, the two of them began to appreciate the scenery of this ice island.
“It’s truly cold here. I reckon that ordinary Deities would have to wear Divine Artifact Armors in order to withstand the cold.” Qin Yu said with a smile. He was holding Li’er’s hand with one hand and embracing her with the other.
The ground and the other constructions of the ice island were practically all formed with those nearly transparent ice chunks. These ice chunks of the Divine Realm’s utmost northern region have never melted for hundreds of millions of years now. Their firmness was definitely not inferior to ordinary hard rocks.
Under the reflection of the Light of Daytime, the ice chunks that covered the ice island were all radiating a gorgeous colorful light. It looked like a place of dreams.
“It’s truly beautiful. It would be pretty nice to live in this sort of place.” Jiang Li looked at her surroundings. Her eyes were filled with joy.
“Brother Yu, don’t we have to go and find that Zuo Qiulin? Why aren’t we going over to her place directly?” Jiang Li asked. Ever since they stepped onto this ice island, she had been pondering this in her heart. She had merely not asked about this till now because the scenery of the ice island was too beautiful.
Qin Yu smiled. “The scenery here is very beautiful. That’s why I’ve decided to have you enjoy it for a bit longer.”
Jiang Li immediately started smiling.
Jiang Li thought about it for a bit. She too thought that Qin Yu was being thoughtful.
“After all, we have come here not to fight her but to invite her. Thus, we naturally cannot offend her.” Qin Yu smiled. He proceeded to continue onward with Li’er.
A mansion formed with hundred of millions of years old cold ice and enormous cyan stones appeared. This mansion did not occupy a very large area. Its circumference was only that of several hundred meters. On the top of the entrance of the mansion were the words ‘White Ice Mansion.’
The master of the White Ice Mansion, Bai Yiju, was very reputed on the ice island. Although the island master of the ice island had never been set in place, the majority of the ice island’s residents already considered Bai Yiju as the island master.
Bai Yiji was very powerful and also very friendly.
The White Ice Mansion did not have many people in it. There were a bit more than ten people in total. The people of the White Ice Mansion all knew very well that their mansion master loved to drink tea alone besides the ice flowers every morning.
Once Bai Yiju thought of his decision from back then, he started to feel that he was brilliant.
“If I had stayed in the Thunder Punishment City, then I reckon I would not have the peaceful and carefree days of today.” Bai Yiju sighed in his heart. “Although the days are extremely good, that Godking of Death in the depths of the ice island is the greatest inconvenience.”
Once he thought of the uncrowned king of the edge of the Northern Sea, Bai Yiju began to feel helpless.
The Godking of Death who lived at the seafloor of this island, although she would not wantonly massacre the ice island’s residents, the existence of the Godking of Death below them had caused the residents of the ice island to be trembling with fear at all times.
“However, at the very least this Godking of Death has not grieved to a state of madness. As long as one do not set foot on her territory, she will not kill you.” Bai Yiju smiled helplessly.
Had the Godking of Death truly grieved to a state of madness, then the residents of the entire ice island would likely have run away already.
A simple and elegant voiced sounded beside Bai Yiju’s ears. Bai Yiju was unable to conceal his shock. To be able to approach him, a High Level Heavenly Deity, without him noticing at all, how powerful was this person who had come?
Bai Yiju turned around to look. He saw a young male and female wearing white gowns walking toward him with smiles on their faces.
“These two people are extremely powerful.” Bai Yiju discovered that although the two people were standing before him, he was incapable of sensing their strength at all. Such an enormous gap had shocked Bai Yiju. He even suspected that… the two people before him were both Godkings! However, he didn’t dare to believe that.
Bai Yiju immediately stood up. With a slightly respectful tone, he said. “I am Bai Yiju, what purpose might bring you sir and lady to this little mansion of mine? If there is anything that you need, Yiju would definitely assist with my full strength.”
During the time when he was asking them, Bai Yiju had already firmly remembered the appearance of the two people before him.
“The two of them are so intimate. That woman’s belly is also swelled. I reckon she’s pregnant. It would appear that these two people are a married couple. A pair of married Godkings? Was there such a couple in the Divine Realm?” Bai Yiju began to think in his heart.
Qin Yu asked with a smile. “I wish to ask about matters regarding this ice island.”
Bai Yiju promptly said. “Please ask away. This Yiju has lived on this ice island for hundreds of millions of years. There ought to not be many things on this ice island that this Yiju doesn’t know of.”
“Do you know Zuo Qiulin?” Jiang Li directly asked.
“Zuo Qiulin?” Bai Yiju was stunned.
He had truly never heard of this name before. After all, the Godking of Death had never left her own mansion before. Furthermore, Zuo Qiulin did not have the patience to inform her name to those Deities.
“It’s that Godking who lives below the ice island.” Qin Yu said.
“Precisely. Could you please tell us everything you know about this Godking of Death in details? Do not worry about the Godking of Death, she does not know that we are in contact with you.” Qin Yu said with a smile.
Bai Yiju’s complexion relaxed. He then said. “Sir and Lady, this Yiju was not afraid that the Godking of Death knew that I had came in contact with you two. Merely, this Yiju was a bit worried for you two.”
“Why is that?” Qin Yu looked to Bai Yiju.
Bai Yiju immediately began to talk. “Speaking of this Godking of Death, I reckon there are not many people who know exactly how long she has been below this ice island. However, although the reputation of the Godking of Death is well known, she conducts herself according to her promise.”
“According to her promise? What sort of promise?” Qin Yu promptly asked.
Bai Yiju nodded and said. “A very very long time ago, at that time, I had not arrived at this ice island yet. At that time, a matter began to spread through this ice island… the Godking of Death had promised that as long as others do not step onto the territory of her Ice Mansion Underworld, she would not kill anyone from the ice island. However, once someone comes too close to her Ice Mansion Underworld, then they would definitely be killed.”
“In the past, there were people who didn’t believe that. However… out of all the people we know of that have entered the territory of her Ice Mansion Underworld, they have all died.” A trace of fear flashed through Bai Yiju’s eyes.
To lose one’s soul, it naturally meant that one would be dead.
Qin Yu and Jiang Li glanced at each other. The two of them did not have a huge shock.
The two of them knew very well that this Godking of Death had researched the soul thoroughly like the Godking of Life. The Godking of Life was capable of restoring a person’s soul, whereas the Godking of Life was capable of destroying a person’s soul.
To be able to kill a Mid Level Heavenly Deity so easily could not be considered much.
If the Godking of Death deliberately killed that Mid Level Heavenly Deity, then it wouldn’t be too crazy.
However, if it was merely the black mist that surrounded the Godking of Death’s Ice Mansion Underworld that managed to easily kill that Mid Level Heavenly Deity, then it would be truly terrifying.
“Sir and Lady, this Yiju knows that you two are both people who possess remarkable abilities. It’s just that this Godking of Death is an extremely heartless person who loves to kill others the most. Furthermore, she loved killing experts even more.” Bai Yiju said solemnly. “Have the two of you discovered that in the range of hundreds of millions of miles the surrounding thousands of islands, there is not a single person living on them?”
Qin Yu exclaimed in surprise.
Had it not been for Bai Yiju mentioning this, Qin Yu really wouldn’t have noticed it. It was extremely ordinary for there to be numerous islands in the Northern Sea. The majority of the islands had quite a few residents on them.
However, the large number of islands surrounding the ice island were all void of people.
“In that case, you all can return to the Divine Realm.” Jiang Li said.
Bai Yiju laughed bitterly, shook his head and said. “Those of us from the ice island don’t dare to leave the ice island. That’s because… this place is truly too far from the main continent of the Divine Realm. Much less the main continent of the Divine Realm, none of us would be able to reach past the uninhabited islands surrounding this ice island within a year’s time. Since we are unable to fly over the uninhabited islands, once the Godking of Death decides to kill people, those of us who had left the ice island would definitely be killed.”
Qin Yu and Jiang Li suddenly came to a realization.
“However, Sir and Lady, you all need not worry for us. Our days on the ice island are extremely peaceful. The ice island’s area is also relatively big, and the population of the ice island is quite large too. Furthermore, the territory of the Godking of Death’s Ice Mansion Underworld is not that huge either. As long as we avoid it, there will be no danger to our lives.” Bai Yiju said with a smile.
Qin Yu and Jiang Li glanced at each other. It could be said that they now both had some knowledge of the Godking of Death, Zuo Qiulin, that they had never met before.
“In that case, we shall take our leave.” Qin Yu said at once. He did not wish to ask anymore. That was because Qin Yu can tell based on what he had heard that… the inhabitants of this ice island did not know much about Zuo Qiulin.
Bai Yiju promptly bowed.
Qin Yu and Jiang Li turned around to leave. However, that Bai Yiju suddenly stopped them and said. “Sir and Lady, this Yiju has suddenly recalled a legend regarding the Godking of Death.”
Bai Yiju promptly said. “Before this Yiju had arrived at this ice island, there was a legend on this ice island. It said that the Godking of Death had killed a Godking before.”
“Afterwards, another Godking showed up and severely injured the Godking of Death. Since then, the Godking of Death has been staying in her Ice Mansion Underworld the entire time and rarely comes out to kill.” Bai Yiju said. “Of course, this is merely a legend. This Yiju is uncertain whether this legend is true or not.”
Qin Yu nodded and slightly smiled. “Thanks.”
After that, Qin Yu and Jiang Li both teleported away from the White Ice Mansion and reached the center region of the ice island. The center region of this ice island was also the only uninhabited region of the ice island.
Black mist was lingering over this region. This was an absolute land of death.
As for that Godking of Death Zuo Qiulin, Qin Yu was able to clearly sense that she was at the depths below the island.
The circumference of the ice island was actually over a hundred thousand miles. The surface above the ocean only possessed the circumference of ten thousand miles. However, on the bottom, it was way greater than that.
At the bottom of the ocean, this ice island’s circumference was greater than a hundred thousand miles.
As for Zuo Qiulin, she was roughly located in an ice cave palace several thousand miles below sea level.
