Chapter 46
The sky gradually darkened, and the full moon hung above the cliff.
"Awooo —"
A wolf king that was twice the size of the other green-eyed wolves, with silver hair like steel needles, leaped onto the cliff and howled.
"Awooo —"
"Awooo —"
Thousands of green-eyed wolves howled along with the wolf king.
Then, the silver-white wolf king looked at the crowd with its sharp eyes. The wolf pack immediately gathered and howled as they rushed forward to slaughter the wolf king. In a moment, hundreds of wolves surrounded the disciples of the Barren Martial House.
"Dali, lead everyone to defend against the wolf pack!" Yue Jian slashed a wolf and rushed outside.
"What are you going to do?" Tian Dali asked. Are you going to abandon us and break out alone?
"Kill the wolf king!"
There was no doubt about Yue Jian's strength. He had already surpassed the level of Inner Refinement and was almost at the level of Half Innate. The sword in his hand glowed. Every time he swung his sword, he would kill a wolf. Every ten steps he took, he would kill more than ten wolves!
However, these Big Wolves were only trained externally. A mere dozen or so normal Big Wolves were insignificant to the entire wolf pack.
"Awooo —"
Yue Jian's performance was too eye-catching. In a moment, he attracted more than ten green-eyed wolves to attack him.
The green-eyed wolves were not as weak as the normal wolves. Although Yue Jian's swordsmanship was terrifying, under the siege of more than ten green-eyed wolves, he was unable to resist and was injured in the blink of an eye.
"Come back!" Tian Dali rushed out and pulled Yue Jian back into the formation.
Yue Jian looked bitterly at the green-eyed wolf king that was high above the cliff. He wanted to kill the wolf king, but he couldn't even reach the wolf king's side …
"Looks like I'm really going to die this time …" Yue Jian was unwilling but helpless. "Encountering a green-eyed wolf pack in the Demonic Beast Mountain is as scary as encountering an Innate Demonic Beast! Innate Demonic Beasts only appear in the deeper parts of the Demonic Beast Mountain. Here, the green-eyed wolves are the overlords of the forest! "
"Ah —" One of the weaker disciples was careless and had his arm torn apart by a few green-eyed wolves. Then, he was bitten on the neck.
"Junior Brother Zhang!"
Junior Brother Zhang was dead.
With the fall of Junior Brother Zhang, there was a gap in the battle formation. In a short while, several weaker disciples died from the wolf claws.
"Ah …" Bai Rong watched helplessly as a green-eyed wolf charged towards her. "Senior Brother Tian, save me!"
Tian Dali was right beside her, but his eyes were cold. He had no intention of saving her.
"She's so weak. Even if I save her, she won't be of any help to me. I might as well let her die!" Tian Dali glanced at Bai Rong.
The reason why Tian Dali had helped Yue Jian earlier was because he valued Yue Jian's strength. With Yue Jian by his side, the pressure on him would lessen, and his chances of escaping alive would be higher. The reason why he didn't save Bai Rong was firstly because Bai Rong was too weak, and secondly … he wasn't interested in women.
He even hated delicate female warriors like Bai Rong very much.
"Hmph! Why is it that women can be so delicate, but we men can't?! "Tian Dali couldn't help but hatefully think.
"Xiao Rong, be careful!" Hua Lengyan saw everything, but at this moment, she couldn't even protect herself, let alone save someone.
"Ah!" The green-eyed wolf's bloody mouth closed in. Bai Rong could even smell the rotting flesh between the wolf's teeth.
Bai Rong's mind was blank. She only felt that time had slowed down, and the wolf's teeth were constantly enlarging in her eyes.
"Am I going to die?"
At this moment, Bai Rong felt neither sorrow nor joy.
If there was anything moving in her heart, it would be a little girl's longing. She longed for a prince on a white horse to suddenly appear in front of her in a moment of life and death.
Suddenly —
Boom!
Bai Rong saw a huge hammer smashing towards the green-eyed wolf's jaw. She saw that the wolf's teeth were smashed out one by one, and the wolf's eyes were also smashed out. The wolf's blood splattered, forming a beautiful rose in the air.
Bang!
The green-eyed wolf was knocked over by the huge hammer.
At this moment, Bai Rong came back to her senses and looked at the "prince on a white horse" who saved her. When she looked, she found that, uh … this prince on a white horse seemed to be a little too dark …
"Sun Ji …" Bai Rong couldn't describe the feeling in her heart. Was it because she was frightened by the scene of life and death, or was it because she found that the prince on a white horse in reality was a little different from the image in her mind. "Thank … thank you!"
"Hehe!" Sun Ji laughed foolishly.
However, at this time, it was obviously not the time to say thank you, nor was it the time to laugh foolishly, because the wolf pack didn't give them any time to breathe!
In just a moment of stupefaction, Sun Ji's situation became extremely difficult. Of course, it wasn't only Sun Ji who was in a difficult situation, the others were also in a difficult situation.
Perhaps the wolf pack had discovered that Sun Ji's huge hammer was very powerful in a group attack. In a moment, there were actually more than ten green-eyed wolves who were training inside attacking together. Although their strength was only equivalent to the early stage of internal training, it was obvious that Sun Ji couldn't handle it.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Sun Ji madly swung his huge hammer, but there were still a lot of claw marks left on his body from the wolf's claws.
At the same time, Hua Lengyan, who was not far from Sun Ji, was also in danger. However, Hua Lengyan's danger was not only caused by the wolf pack, but also by a person.
"Tian Dali, you!" Hua Lengyan was originally handling the situation well, but she was pulled by Tian Dali to an angle where the wolf pack was densely packed.
"If you don't want to die, help me guard my back!" Tian Dali shouted.
"Hmph!" Even if Hua Lengyan was unwilling, she didn't dare to argue at this time.
Kacha!
At this time, a green-eyed wolf desperately dodged the huge hammer and bit Sun Ji's wrist.
Immediately, Sun Ji's combat power in one hand was crippled. Sun Ji, who was already in a critical situation, was now really in a desperate situation where death was certain!
Seeing several green-eyed wolves biting at him at the same time, Sun Ji's face flashed with a trace of relief. "If I die, then I die. Anyway, it's only a matter of time. If I die, then I won't have to struggle so bitterly! It's just that … "At this moment of life and death, Sun Ji actually thought of Xu Ming." I'm sorry boss. You wasted so many resources on me. In the future, I can't follow behind you and be your little brother anymore … "
"Sun Ji —" Bai Rong cried out in alarm.
However, even she herself was in imminent danger. It was impossible for her to help Sun Ji in the slightest.
Sun Ji looked at Bai Rong and thought in his heart, "Hey, this girl is not bad! If I can go back alive, maybe I can flirt with her … but … "
Several ferocious mouths approached. Sun Ji had completely lost the ability to resist.
"Eighteen years later, I'm still a man!"
Just as Sun Ji was about to close his eyes and stretch his neck to be killed, a flying spear silently pierced through the sky.
Pu! Pu! Pu! Pu …
The green-eyed wolves of internal training were as weak as tofu in front of this flying spear.
The flying spear was like a skewer, piercing through the row of green-eyed wolves surrounding Sun Ji and finally stabbing into the ground.
"Huh!?" Xu Ming couldn't believe it. He was so excited that his voice trembled. "Boss!!"
Yue Jian, Hua Lengyan and the rest also opened their eyes wide, as if they saw a glimmer of hope in this hopeless situation.
"Xu Ming is here. This is good. Our chances of survival are greater!" Tian Dali thought in his heart. Since Xu Ming was recognized as the number one disciple of the Savage Martial House by Martial House Master Gu, he more or less must have some ability.
"Awooo —" The wolf king howled, as if it was challenging Xu Ming, this human who suddenly appeared.
Boom!
Xu Ming knocked away the pack of wolves and flashed to Sun Ji's side.
"Bo … boss!"
"Shut up! Do you still have me as your boss in your heart? "Xu Ming pulled back his spear and scolded.
Although he was scolded, Sun Ji's heart felt warm. "Boss, seeing you risk your life for me, I, Sun Ji, really didn't follow the wrong person! But boss, later you must leave first. Don't worry about me … there are too many wolves. We can't kill them all! "
Chapter 47
With the addition of Xu Ming, the incomparably difficult battle situation became much easier all of a sudden.
Xu Ming wielded his spear and swept it left and right. With his own strength, he blocked the attacks of almost half of the Green-eyed Wolves. Occasionally, he would even look after the people around him, sharing the pressure of his teammates.
"Xu Ming, you're really something. I, Yue Jian, am ashamed of my inferiority!" Yue Jian suddenly felt that the pressure on him had decreased by a lot. He even had time to chat.
However, at this moment, Yue Jian was truly convinced of Xu Ming's strength. "Perfect spear technique as smooth as flowing water! Dazzling speed — Martial House Master Gu's eyes are truly admirable! It's laughable that I doubted Xu Ming's strength previously! "
Yue Jian even felt that if he were to face Xu Ming, he wouldn't even be able to take three moves.
Thinking of this, Yue Jian couldn't help but feel grateful that Xu Ming didn't accept his challenge earlier.
"Luckily, Xu Ming is magnanimous. Otherwise, if I were to challenge him, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to raise my head in the Martial House anymore!" As he was grateful to Xu Ming for coming to his rescue, Yue Jian felt that Xu Ming was very pleasing to the eye.
Yue Jian felt that even the sword in his hand was much more powerful, and he killed the wolves much faster.
"Hmph!" Tian Dali snorted at Xu Ming's performance. "If it wasn't for me, these people would have died long ago. How could they wait for you, Xu Ming, to arrive? — Hmph! This group of people, ever since Xu Ming arrived, they actually forgot about my contribution! "
Seeing that Xu Ming had become the focus of everyone's attention, Tian Dali was very unhappy.
Bang! Bang! Bang! …
Xu Ming once again swept his long spear horizontally, and once again smashed away a row of green-eyed wolves like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. These Green-eyed Wolves all had their vital points hit by the mysterious spear technique. After being sent flying, they couldn't stand up again.
However, Xu Ming didn't seem to be pleased with himself at all. Instead, he said worriedly, "Not good. The wolves don't seem to have any intention of retreating. If this continues, their physical strength will be exhausted very quickly. At that time, we will be in big trouble!"
Sure enough, Xu Ming caught a glimpse of the delicate girl named Bai Rong. She was so tired that she was out of breath, but in order to survive, she had to grit her teeth and persevere no matter how tired she was.
Giving up meant giving up one's life.
"There are too many wolves. We can't go on like this!"
Boom!
Xu Ming's strength suddenly erupted — — Double Attack!
Although he only spent 500 points to double his attack, it was more than enough.
"You guys defend yourselves first!" Xu Ming said.
"Alright!"
"Alright!"
Whether it was Sun Ji, who was familiar with Xu Ming, or Yue Jian, who was not familiar with Xu Ming, they all spoke without thinking.
Only Tian Dali was shouting, "Hey, we're guarding well. Where are you going? Don't tell me you feel that the situation is not good and want to retreat? "
"Even if Boss wants to retreat, what does that have to do with you?" Sun Ji scolded.
Xu Ming wanted to retreat? — — Sun Ji did not believe it! If Xu Ming really wanted to retreat, he would not have tried so hard to find this place without telling him the location.
Xu Ming looked coldly at Tian Dali. "Kill the Wolf King!"
"Another arrogant person who wants to kill the Wolf King!" Tian Dali continued to shout. "Just now, there was another person who overestimated himself like you. He thought that the Wolf King was easy to kill, but what happened in the end? He barely took a few steps and almost couldn't return. Luckily, I saved him, damn it! "
After a pause, Tian Dali continued, "Our defense is stable now. As long as we can hold on for a while longer, the wolves will naturally retreat because they can't afford to lose anymore. Why do you want to take the risk and give up on such a good situation to go and kill the Wolf King? "
Boom!
Xu Ming could not be bothered to pay attention to him. Wherever his spear pointed, he quickly opened up a path of blood.
Xu Ming and Yue Jian were obviously different. Yue Jian rushed out to kill the Wolf King, but he was beaten back after a few steps. On the other hand, wherever Xu Ming went, there was nothing that could stop him.
However, Xu Ming had only taken a few steps when Sun Ji and the rest's defense was obviously unable to hold on.
"I need some time to rush over and kill the Wolf King. Looks like they can't hold on for much longer!"
After thinking for a while, Xu Ming waved his hand and threw out the puppet. He ordered, "Protect them!"
With the addition of the puppet, the pressure on Sun Ji and the rest immediately decreased.
In terms of lethality, the puppet was naturally not as strong as Xu Ming. However, the puppet's attacks were not weak either. Every punch it threw out was a demonic beast!
Moreover, the puppet's body was indestructible. It had received Xu Ming's order to "protect them". When someone was in danger, it could directly use its body to block! Those green-eyed wolves did not know how hard the puppet's body was and also stupidly bit it. In the end, the puppet was unharmed, but the stupid wolves broke a mouthful of wolf teeth.
With the puppet guarding the rear, Xu Ming could finally kill his way out without worry!
"What is this? Is this a puppet? " Yue Jian was very curious. "Aren't puppets extinct in Feiyun Country? Where did Brother Xu Ming get such a rare thing?"
"My boss has many secrets on him!" Sun Ji looked proud. "I vaguely heard that my boss seems to have a very mysterious master. This puppet is probably a gift from the mysterious master! "
"Hmph!" Tian Dali looked at the puppet greedily, but his mouth sneered. "Isn't it just a puppet?"
"Isn't it just a puppet?" Sun Ji sneered. "Take one out and let me see it!"
"Hmph!" Tian Dali did not say anything else.
At this moment, Xu Ming had already dragged his long spear and was about to reach the cliff where the Wolf King was.
Wherever Xu Ming's long spear went, there was no way to block it!
"Awooo — —"
The silver-haired Wolf King seemed to feel that its dignity was being challenged. After a long howl, it actually rushed down from the cliff in anger.
The Wolf King of the Half Innate Level, in terms of fighting power, was above the average Half Innate Level human warrior. This was because the Wolf King's attack was high, its speed was fast, and its defense was not weak. This kind of demonic beast had almost no weakness.
"Boss …" Even though Sun Ji was having a hard time fighting, his mind was still on Xu Ming. "Be careful!"
"Brother Xu Ming, it's all up to you now!" Yue Jian prayed silently in his heart.
"You must win!" A trace of complicated splendor actually appeared within Hua Lengyan's icy cold eyes that had not changed since the ancient times. It was unknown if she was shocked by Xu Ming's formidable strength, or if she was grateful for Xu Ming's timely appearance to save her life, or perhaps it was something else …
"Do your best!" Even though Bai Rong was having a hard time, she still clenched her fist and cheered in her heart.
The others were also eagerly waiting for Xu Ming to successfully kill the Wolf King.
Only Tian Dali had a look of disdain. "Kill the Wolf King? — — If the Wolf King that leads thousands of wolves was so easy to kill, I would have killed it long ago! Hmph, don't lose your life before you can kill the Wolf King. That would be a joke! "
Because the puppet had joined the battle, Tian Dali felt that Xu Ming's existence was no longer necessary. He believed that even if Xu Ming died, as long as the puppet was still around, they would still be able to defeat the wolf pack.
In fact, Tian Dali even hoped that Xu Ming would hurry up and die!
"Only when Xu Ming dies can I think of a way to get this puppet! Wolf King, you must do your best. Don't disappoint me! "
The bright moonlight shone on the Wolf King's silver fur, making it look extremely cold.
The Wolf King jumped down from the cliff as fast as a bolt of lightning.
The Wolf King's speed was fast, but Xu Ming was even faster!
The spear in Xu Ming's hand turned into an even faster bolt of lightning and faced the Wolf King.
Puchi!
The spear pierced through the wolf's mouth and came out from the tail, directly piercing through the Wolf King.
"Ahhhh …"
The Wolf King did not die immediately. It was still whimpering and wailing, as if saying — — How can this human's spear be so fast?
The entire pack of green-eyed wolves was stunned. They looked at the Wolf King that had been turned into a "skewer", and the same thought emerged in their minds — — Boss, what's wrong with you?
Sun Ji and the rest were completely dumbfounded.
They had thought of many possibilities:
Xu Ming finally defeated the Wolf King after a fierce battle!
Xu Ming and the Wolf King fought for 300 rounds and ended in a draw!
Or Xu Ming could be defeated by the Wolf King in the end and flee, or even be killed!
Or it could be that Xu Ming won by crushing the Wolf King …
However, no one would have thought that Xu Ming would turn the Wolf King into a skewer in just one exchange!
"Is this guy really the Wolf King?" Sun Ji even thought that if he rushed over, he could also oppress the Wolf King and be a hero for once?
What kind of situation was this?
He killed the Wolf King just like that? Wasn't this too simple and crude? Wasn't the plot too dull?
Also, was this guy really the Wolf King that commanded thousands of wolves? Wasn't he too weak? This pack of green-eyed wolves could actually strut around the Demon Beast Mountain Range until now under the leadership of this trash Wolf King?
After a long time, everyone came back to their senses. They looked at Xu Ming with eyes full of reverence.
Yes, it was reverence!
Chapter 48
The Silver Wolf King was strung up on the spear. It seemed to have realised that it was about to die and started to struggle. However, the moment it struggled, the spear would stir up its internal organs. It was in so much pain that it wanted to die.
"Forget it, I'll let you go!"
Xu Ming shook his hand and his Profound Qi went through the spear and into the Wolf King's internal organs.
The Wolf King whimpered and breathed its last.
Before it died, its eyes were still wide open. Did it die just like that?
"The Wolf King is dead!"
Unknowingly, the battle between Sun Ji and the wolf pack had stopped.
Wolves were ferocious but that didn't mean that they weren't afraid. When the wolf pack saw that even their invincible king had been killed by this human who had appeared out of nowhere, they were really trembling!
The entire wolf pack was trembling!
In their eyes, Xu Ming was an invincible god.
"Woo …"
Not knowing which green-eyed wolf was the first to run away with its tail between its legs. Following that, the wolf pack that was already scared out of their wits scrambled to escape.
Xu Ming returned with his spear, looking like a god descending from heaven.
"Bo … Boss! You're too strong! "Sun Ji was stunned.
If he had known that his boss was so powerful, Sun Ji wouldn't have asked his boss not to come. He probably wouldn't even have time to call for help!
"Brother Xu Ming!" Yue Jian's face was full of admiration. "To think that I called myself a genius. Compared to Brother Xu Ming, I'm nothing! With Brother Xu Ming's cultivation, I'm afraid that he's about to enter the innate stage? "
Yue Jian admitted that if he were to fight with the Silver Wolf King, he would most likely lose. However, Xu Ming could kill the Wolf King with a single spear! This showed how big the gap between him and Xu Ming was!
"Furthermore, I'm four or five years older than Xu Ming!" Yue Jian laughed at himself.
"I'm still far from the innate stage!" Xu Ming said perfunctorily, "I actually paid a huge price for my previous state!"
"Oh …" Yue Jian stopped asking. After all, everyone had their own secrets.
At this moment, Tian Dali interrupted, "I say, Xu Ming, did Manor Head Gu secretly teach you some kind of forbidden art? Hmph, Manor Head Gu is biased … What kind of forbidden technique is this? How could it be so powerful? Why don't you tell us about it? "
Xu Ming glanced at Tian Dali coldly.
Originally, Xu Ming did not hate Tian Dali, even if he dressed up more flirtatiously than a girl. However, Xu Ming now realized that this person was not only a gossipy woman on the outside, but also a gossipy woman on the inside.
"Boss, what kind of forbidden technique did you use? Was it serious? Are there any hidden dangers left behind? " When Sun Ji heard this, he became anxious. He had assumed that his boss had used a forbidden technique and damaged his foundation in order to rush over to save him.
"It's nothing!" Xu Ming couldn't explain about the cheat.
However, the words "it's nothing" made Sun Ji's eyes turn red. What a good boss! For a useless little brother like me, he didn't hesitate to use a forbidden technique … And what can I do to repay him? Even if I used my life to repay him, I wouldn't be able to repay him with anything.
Hua Lengyan, who was known as the ice beauty in the Martial House, looked at Xu Ming with a strange light in her eyes. No one knew what she was thinking.
"Alright, stop talking nonsense. Eat this pill first!"
Sun Ji's injuries were not light. One of his wrists was bitten to pieces. The sooner he treated these injuries, the less likely there would be any future problems.
"Boss …" Sun Ji held the pill that was overflowing with medicinal fragrance. No matter how stupid he was, he could still guess how precious this pill was.
"Stop wasting time and eat it quickly!" Xu Ming scolded. "This pill is not enough to heal you completely. When we return to the city, I will think of a way to get you a better pill."
Xu Ming had spent almost all of his points to exchange for this pill from the Divine Weapon Store. He had no more points to exchange for higher grade pills. He could only go back and think of a way.
Looking at his boss's concerned eyes, Sun Ji didn't waste any more time. He raised his head and swallowed the pill.
The medicinal power emitted by the pill made Sun Ji feel warm from the inside out. At this moment, the thing he felt the most warm was probably his heart. Sun Ji had already decided that he would follow his boss, Xu Ming, for the rest of his life!
"Are you alright, Sun Ji?" Bai Rong appeared beside Sun Ji and asked with concern.
"It's just a small injury!" Sun Ji said heroically. But anyone could see that he was suppressing the pain brought about by his pain.
"Xu Ming!" Tian Dali's gloomy voice sounded again. "I'm also injured. Give me one of those pills!"
Give you one of those pills too?
Xu Ming couldn't be bothered to pay attention to this idiot.
Not to mention that he had already used up all of his points. Even if he still had some points, why should he give you one? Are we close?
This pill looked ordinary, but it was at least a thousand points, okay? And this was a price that could only be bought in the Divine Weapon Store! In Rising Clouds City, fifty thousand taels of gold might not even be enough to buy a pill of this quality!
"Hey, what do you mean by not saying anything? Isn't it just a pill? In any case, we are brothers from the same sect. As your Senior Brother, I got injured in the wild. You're not even willing to give me a pill to help me? "Tian Dali shouted.
"Haha!" Xu Ming laughed disdainfully.
Tian Dali asked for a snub again.
Xu Ming swept his eyes over the wolf corpses on the ground and discovered that many of the wolf skins had runes imprinted on them.
"Go and peel off these wolf skins!" Xu Ming gave an order to the puppet that was already standing there with nothing to do.
The puppet accepted the order and immediately went to carry out the task stupidly but nimbly.
"Xu Ming, this puppet of yours is not bad!" Tian Dali actually came up to him again. "Sell it to me for a hundred thousand taels of gold!"
Xu Ming laughed. "I'll give you a million taels of gold. Sell it to me!"
"Tch, if you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it. What are you pretending for!" Tian Dali sneered. "This puppet of yours, even if it's made of gold from head to toe, it's not worth a hundred thousand taels of gold!"
Xu Ming, Sun Ji, Yue Jian, and the rest of the people present all looked at Tian Dali in surprise. Their gazes all expressed the same meaning — How could you say such shameless and ignorant words?
Could the value of a puppet be measured in gold?
For a Half Innate puppet like Xu Ming, just the materials used to make the outer shell were comparable to the best weapons; the core components inside were even more valuable!
And the key point was that the art of puppetry had long been lost in Feiyun Country. Such a puppet couldn't be valued at all! For Tian Dali to say something like that, should he be called ignorant or shameless?
"Hmph!"
Tian Dali noticed the disdain in everyone's eyes. He didn't have the face to continue standing there foolishly, so he followed the puppet and ran to harvest the rune wolf skins.
The ground was littered with wolf corpses and rune wolf skins. Especially the runes on the silver-white wolf king's body, it was undoubtedly a rune worth ten thousand points.
Tian Dali first harvested the wolf skins that he had killed.
Regarding this, no one had any objections. After all, these wolves were killed by Tian Dali. It was reasonable for him to harvest his own spoils.
But soon, Tian Dali's behavior was unbearable. After harvesting his own rune wolf skins, he didn't stop. He even had designs on Bai Rong's wolf skins.
"That's mine!" Bai Rong hurriedly shouted.
These wolf skins were her spoils of war. With so many rune wolf skins, it was enough for her to get a good ranking in the Big Hunting Competition.
"Yours?" Tian Dali snorted. "If it wasn't for my help, you would have died long ago!"
"You!" Bai Rong was furious.
Speaking of help, did Tian Dali help her even a little bit? Wasn't she the one who was struggling to support herself? If it wasn't for Sun Ji's help, even if she died, Tian Dali wouldn't have helped her!
But now, Tian Dali was plundering her spoils of war, and he was so righteous.
"Tian Dali, put it down!" Hua Lengyan stood out.
"Yes, put it down!" The other surviving disciples also united the battle line.
If they let Tian Dali harvest Bai Rong's spoils of war, wouldn't it be their turn to be robbed later?
"Tian Dali, you've gone too far!" Yue Jian also said.
In fact, Yue Jian had always thought that Tian Dali was very narrow-minded. But today, he found that Tian Dali was completely a villain.
"Humph!" Tian Dali had become the target of public criticism. He could only snort and resentfully change his direction to harvest the rune wolf skins.
The target he was looking for was the wolf pack that Xu Ming had slaughtered along the way when he went to kill the wolf king alone.
Xu Ming was stunned and said in a low voice, "You dare to touch my things?"
"What do you mean by your things?" Tian Dali immediately retorted in a sharp voice, "Although these green-eyed wolves were not killed by me, but if it wasn't for me holding back the wolf pack, would you have been able to kill the wolf king so smoothly?"
Xu Ming was even more stunned. How could there be such a shameless person in the Wasteland Martial House?
"According to what you said, I should also give you a share of the wolf king's skin?" Xu Ming's voice was slightly cold, "Go, the wolf king's ten thousand points worth of wolf skin is right there. Go and harvest it!"
"This …" Tian Dali was moved, but he still retreated.
Chapter 49
Tian Dali really wanted to act tough and strip off one of Xu Ming's loot to see what Xu Ming would do to him.
However, after hesitating for a long time, he still couldn't act tough. Not only did he not dare to strip off the wolf skins that Xu Ming had killed, he didn't even dare to take the loot from the others.
"This Xu Ming must be deliberately finding trouble with me. Even if I strip off the others, he will say it's his …" Tian Dali had no choice but to lower his head. He could only be a coward.
"Everyone, quickly pack up your things!" Xu Ming said.
Hua Lengyan, Bai Rong and a few other disciples who were weaker cast grateful glances at Xu Ming. They knew that if not for Xu Ming's deterrence, the shameless Tian Dali might have continued to rob them of their wolf skins.
Yue Jian was the first to pack up his rune wolf skin. "This encounter with the wolf pack feels a little strange."
"Why?" Xu Ming immediately asked.
"The purpose of the Big Hunting Competition is to train us, not to send us to our deaths!" Yue Jian said, "In the previous Big Hunting Competition, although there were people who encountered wolf packs, they were only on a small scale. But this time, with thousands of green-eyed wolves, it shouldn't appear in the Big Hunting Competition! "
"Indeed!" Xu Ming nodded his head.
To the disciples of the Martial House, encountering such a wolf pack was not a training ground, it was a complete suicide mission!
"Maybe the masters of the Martial House overlooked this when they were inspecting the hunting area …" Yue Jian could only think this way.
Tian Dali's eyes flickered. No one knew what he was thinking.
Soon, everyone's rune wolf skins were packed up and stored in their storage rings.
"Hey, I have nearly a thousand hunting points!" A disciple said happily.
"I also have more than eight hundred points!"
After a life and death battle, everyone had obtained a lot of points. Xu Ming's points had reached a shocking twelve thousand. Of course, ten thousand of these points were contributed by the silver wolf king.
"I really envy you, little brother Xu Ming!" Yue Jian laughed.
"What do you envy me for?"
"I've been busy in the Hunting Area for a few days now, and I've only managed to accumulate over three thousand points!" Yue Jian laughed, "I heard that Brother Xu Ming, you just came to this hunting area, and with just this battle, you obtained more than twelve thousand points! It seems that the first place in this year's Big Hunting Competition will belong to Brother Xu Ming! "
Yue Jian had participated in the Big Hunting Competition many times, so he naturally knew how many points were needed to rank first in the Big Hunting Competition.
Based on previous years' experience, one would have the qualifications to aim for first place once they had accumulated 8,000 points. Once they had accumulated 9,000 points, they would be able to secure first place. Once they had accumulated more than 10,000 points, they would definitely be able to secure first place!
And now, Xu Ming already had more than 12,000 points. No matter how hard Yue Jian tried, he wouldn't be able to get that many points.
After all, the demonic beasts in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range weren't like the chickens and ducks raised at home. Those powerful demonic beasts with high points were even more cunning. Once they discovered that their lives were in danger, they would run away as fast as they could!
It wasn't easy to accumulate points!
"Since I have enough points …" Xu Ming looked at Sun Ji, "There are still a few days left. Anyway, I don't have anything else to do, so I'll go with you! Later, I'll give you some points too, so that you can get second place! "
Xu Ming said confidently.
Xu Ming's confidence wasn't baseless. With his cultivation at the later stage of Internal Training, and the fact that he had used thirty stones of each attribute, he had also comprehended the realm of Nuance. Even if he didn't use cheats, his combat power had already reached the level of Semi-Innate!
With such strength, he could almost do whatever he wanted in the Hunting Area. Moreover, few demonic beasts could escape from his hands.
"Hmph!"
Tian Dali, who was in the corner, looked angrily at the people who were showing off their points.
He didn't know if it was because of his bad luck, but the group of green-eyed wolves that Tian Dali had killed were mostly of "high combat power but low points". Tian Dali fought desperately for half a day and killed a bunch of green-eyed wolves, but in the end, he only obtained seven hundred points. It was even lower than the lowest among the surviving disciples!
How could the narrow-minded Tian Dali accept this?
That was why he wanted to take the spoils of war from the other disciples. However, after being threatened by Xu Ming, he didn't dare to make a move.
Looking at Xu Ming, who was surrounded like a moon surrounded by stars, Tian Dali's jealousy burned even more. If looks could kill, his jealous eyes would have killed Xu Ming a few hundred times already.
"Damn it, this kid was the latest to come. He didn't even fight for long, and he actually got twelve thousand points?" Tian Dali thought of his own pitiful points, "I fought so hard for so long, but I only got seven hundred points? Why!? "
Why?
Because Xu Ming was strong!
Tian Dali didn't think that Xu Ming could get twelve thousand points in such a short period of time. His strength must be terrifying!
Another example was that silver-white wolf king. It was coquettish for a long time on the cliff under the moonlight. If Tian Dali had the ability, he could go and kill it. It wasn't like he wasn't allowed to kill it. However, the reality was that Yue Jian tried to kill the wolf king, but Tian Dali didn't even dare to try.
"Tsk!"
The jealousy in Tian Dali's heart couldn't be extinguished. Instead, it spread uncontrollably.
No matter how he looked at Xu Ming, he felt unhappy, "Why can he get first place in the big hunting competition, but I never got first place!?"
Suddenly, Tian Dali had an evil thought, "This Xu Ming, when he went to kill the wolf king, his strength suddenly skyrocketed. It can be seen that he must have used some kind of forbidden technique … And any forbidden technique, after using it, there will be a period of weakness!"
Tian Dali suddenly realized that this might be Xu Ming's weakest moment!
"And … I heard that this kid has countless treasures on him! Let's not talk about the puppet, last time he took out a bunch of Demonic Sea Worms … "Tian Dali's evil thought grew," If I kill him and take his storage ring … not only will I be able to sit on all his resources, but the first place of the big hunting competition will also be mine! "
As for killing a fellow disciple, would Yue Jian and the others report him?
Tian Dali wasn't worried at all, because the Martial House had never set a rule that stated that fellow disciples couldn't kill each other in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range!
Never!
This rule of the Martial House seemed to be heartless, but in fact, it was a way to warn all the disciples — the outside world was not as peaceful as the Martial House. When you go out, you must be wary of everyone around you! Because everyone could be the one who killed you!
"Let's do it! Kill! "Once the evil thought came up, he couldn't suppress it anymore.
"But …" Tian Dali glanced at the puppet with fear, "This puppet is very difficult to deal with. With the puppet here, I'm afraid I won't be able to get away with it! — Eh? "
Then, Tian Dali realized that things went unexpectedly smoothly — Xu Ming actually put the puppet into the storage ring.
"You really brought this on yourself, you can't live!" Tian Dali's eyes were ferocious, "Putting the puppet into the storage ring couldn't be better. After I kill you and take your storage ring, I'll have plenty of time to slowly study how to control the puppet!"
Quietly, Tian Dali had already walked to Xu Ming's side.
At this time, Xu Ming didn't expect Tian Dali to make a move on him, so he was completely unprepared.
"Your vigilance is really low!"
Tian Dali's face was expressionless, but the murderous intent in his eyes had already begun to burst forth.
"Die — —"
Tian Dali suddenly pulled out a large saber from the storage ring. With a flash of the saber, it was already at Xu Ming's head.
When the saber came out, Tian Dali's heart was indescribably refreshed, "You're very strong? No matter how strong you are, isn't it just a matter of my saber? And your treasures will all become mine … Hahahaha! "
Chapter 50
"Boss!"
"Xu Ming!"
…
Sun Ji, Yue Jian, Hua Lengyan, and the others immediately noticed Tian Dali's sudden attack.
However, Tian Dali's sneak attack this time was too straightforward and too fast. The others only had time to show a shocked expression before the saber touched Xu Ming's hair. They instinctively wanted to warn Xu Ming, but they didn't even have time to shout.
"Boss!" Sun Ji's eyes were red.
"Haha, you're dead!" Tian Dali's expression became more and more ferocious. "If you die, your things will all be mine!"
However, just as his saber was about to land on Xu Ming's head, Xu Ming's entire body suddenly leaned straight to the side, barely dodging the saber.
"Tian Dali!" Xu Ming turned around and looked at Tian Dali with a murderous gaze.
He really didn't expect Tian Dali to attack him, and in front of so many people.
"Luckily …" Xu Ming couldn't help but break out in cold sweat. "Luckily, I activated Perfect Combat and Speed Boost. The moment I felt something behind me, my body instinctively dodged. Otherwise, I would have died in the hands of this despicable person!"
Today, even if he only activated Perfect Combat and Speed Boost, Xu Ming might have died under Tian Dali's saber.
Just think about it, Xu Ming had the cheat and was about to quickly rise in the vast Other World, but he was killed by a despicable person. He probably wouldn't be able to rest in peace even if he died!
"Tian Dali, what is the meaning of this?!" Yue Jian pulled out his sharp sword and quickly flanked Tian Dali, blocking his path.
"What do you want?" Hua Lengyan and the other disciples also blocked his left and right.
Everyone's eyes were burning with anger.
Sneak attacking fellow disciples was undoubtedly a big taboo. Today, Tian Dali had sneak attacked Xu Ming, and they couldn't be sure that he would sneak attack someone else in the future. And these people, even Yue Jian, didn't dare to say that they could survive Tian Dali's sneak attack.
"Tian Dali, I'll f * ck your mother!!!" Sun Ji raised his sledgehammer and charged forward.
Although Tian Dali was surrounded, he didn't care about Sun Ji's attack at all. He waved his broadsword casually and swatted away the hammer as if he was swatting a fly.
However, just as Tian Dali swung his broadsword, Xu Ming's spear arrived.
Bang!
The tip of the spear casually touched the back of the saber, and the saber was sent flying.
At the same time, Sun Ji's sledgehammer came crashing down on Tian Dali's face.
Boom!
Tian Dali covered his face and fell to the ground.
"Boss, let's kill him!" Sun Ji was furious. His boss was so close to being killed by this vile person.
Xu Ming hesitated.
Kill him?
Even though martial arts were revered in this world, the legal system and moral system did not think that there was anything wrong with killing people. Killing for revenge in the martial world was a common occurrence! However, when Xu Ming was faced with killing someone, he still hesitated.
After all, Xu Ming was not born and raised under the moral system of this world. He was a transmigrator from a civilized world. In the depths of his mind, he subconsciously thought that killing people was an extremely evil thing!
Therefore, even though Xu Ming was decisive and ruthless in battle, in reality, he had never killed anyone.
Now, Tian Dali was sitting on the ground, waiting for his judgment.
"Xu Ming!" Tian Dali trembled. "Let … let me go … I was possessed … let me live. From now on, I'll be your slave. No, I'll be your dog! I'll do whatever you want me to do. I'll bite whoever you want me to bite! "
Xu Ming glanced at Tian Dali coldly. He didn't say anything, and he didn't relax his grip on the spear.
"Boss, you can't let this kind of person live!" Sun Ji said anxiously. "If you let him live, you don't know when he'll stab you in the back!"
"That's right …" Xu Ming's eyes gradually became resolute.
This time, he had avoided the sneak attack and saved his life. But what about the next time? Could he guarantee that he would be so lucky next time?
This kind of person who wanted to kill him, he couldn't let him live!
Tian Dali seemed to have felt the killing intent. His body trembled and he quickly crawled to Yue Jian's feet. He begged, "Yue Jian, we've been brothers for many years. Help me say something!"
Brothers for many years?
Yue Jian laughed secretly.
To be honest, he didn't have a deep relationship with Tian Dali. It was just that both of them were well-known figures in the Savage Martial House. Therefore, they often interacted with each other. Other than that, the two of them were just acquaintances.
Xu Ming couldn't help but look at Yue Jian. He wanted to get some advice from his face.
Yue Jian shook his head as if it was a matter of course. His meaning was clear: This person can't be allowed to live.
Not only Yue Jian, but Hua Lengyan, Bai Rong and the other disciples also didn't want a person who would sneak attack their fellow disciples. With this kind of person by their side, they would have to be on tenterhooks if they accepted any missions from the Martial House.
"He deserves to die!"
Xu Ming gripped his long spear and walked towards Tian Dali.
"Xu Ming, don't be impulsive. We're still fellow disciples!"
It would have been better if Tian Dali didn't say it. Once he said it, Xu Ming was immediately angered. "Fellow disciples? You also know that we're fellow disciples? "
"If you kill me, you'll definitely leave behind the infamy of harming fellow disciples!" Tian Dali kept crawling backwards.
Sun Ji held his sledgehammer in one hand and blocked Tian Dali's path of retreat.
"Boss, hurry up and kill him. This kind of person is disgusting!"
"It's indeed disgusting!" Hua Lengyan also said.
For some reason, Hua Lengyan's killing intent towards Tian Dali was no less than Sun Ji's. If it weren't for the fact that this person should be killed by Xu Ming, she would have personally cut him into a thousand pieces.
"En!" Xu Ming raised his long spear.
"Xu Ming, Xu Ming! Don't kill me. Let's talk things out. I'm your dog, your most loyal dog! Woof, woof, woof! Woof, woof, woof! "Tian Dali was scared witless.
Yue Jian and the rest looked at him with disdain.
"To think that I've been fellow disciples with this kind of person for so long. What a disgrace!"
"I used to spar with him often. Now it seems that he has really dirtied my sword!"
… …
"Xu Ming, Xu Ming!"
Tian Dali could no longer crawl backwards. Because his back had already hit Sun Ji's leg.
"Since you want me to die …" Suddenly, Tian Dali's eyes became extremely ferocious. "Then I'll drag you down with me before I die!"
Bang!
Tian Dali bounced up from the ground. His hands formed claws and went straight for Sun Ji's chest. With his strength that was much stronger than Sun Ji's, this claw was enough to kill him!
"You want me to die? Die! Die! Let's die together! "Tian Dali pounced on Sun Ji like a madman.
Sun Ji was caught off guard and could only watch as the sharp claws reached for his chest.
"Boss …" Realizing that he was about to die, Sun Ji couldn't help but look at Xu Ming with a complicated expression. It was as if he was asking, "Boss, why don't you kill me?"
"Sun Ji!!"
Xu Ming was finally enraged.
Puff!
Xu Ming raised his hand and the long spear pierced through Tian Dali's throat. Tian Dali's ferocious claws started to droop weakly. Before he died, Tian Dali still looked at Sun Ji unwillingly. He hated that he couldn't drag Sun Ji down with him.
Bang!
Xu Ming pulled out the long spear and Tian Dali fell to the ground weakly. Blood flowed all over the ground.
"Boss …" Sun Ji felt that he had just walked through the gates of hell.
"Sun Ji, I'm sorry!" Xu Ming apologized. Because of his indecisiveness, he had almost caused the death of his good brother, Sun Ji.
At the same time, Xu Ming also understood that this world was such a bloody one! When dealing with enemies, one had to be decisive in killing them. Being indecisive would only harm oneself and the people around you!
Xu Ming couldn't help but think of a saying — being merciful to enemies was being cruel to oneself!
"Can I give my enemies a chance to harm me and the people around me?"
Chapter 51
After killing Tian Dali, Xu Ming naturally inherited his wealth — a total of two hundred thousand gold taels worth of resources and a storage ring.
"Killing and robbing is indeed a way to get rich. No wonder there are so many vicious people who specialize in this business! "
After that, Xu Ming accompanied Sun Ji in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range for a few days to accumulate points. When it was about time, they returned to the Barbarian Martial House to report.
Xu Ming was unquestionably first and was rewarded with one hundred thousand gold taels. Sun Ji was second and was rewarded with eighty thousand gold taels.
After returning to the Martial House, Xu Ming spent another ten thousand hack points to purchase a sacred healing pill from the Artifact Store. He completely healed Sun Ji's injuries without leaving any hidden injuries.
Xu Ming also gave the extra storage ring to Xu Kai — after all, in the capital, Xu Kai was his only blood relative. Now that Xu Ming was somewhat successful, how could he not take care of his own clan brother?
In the Martial House, news of Tian Dali's death quickly spread.
After hearing it, most people did not hesitate to believe that even death could not wipe out Tian Dali's crimes!
Only one or two of them were jackals of the same tribe as Tian Dali. They even cried out for Tian Dali. Of course, it did not matter if they cried out for him or not, because no one cared about them.
Time passed by peacefully.
"Finally … I've reached the peak of internal training!"
One afternoon, Xu Ming suddenly received a notification from Xiao Gua, saying that his cultivation had reached the peak of internal training.
Feeling the surging Xuan Qi in his body, Xu Ming could not help but let out a long cry.
Reaching the peak of internal training meant that he had reached the peak of internal training. If he could go one step further, he would be an innate master — of course, for Xu Ming, going one step further was a very simple matter. All he needed to do was … wait!
"After being in this world for more than a month, I can finally barely call myself an expert!" Xu Ming sighed with emotion.
A martial artist who had reached the peak of internal training had a very high status in the Feiyun Country — in the Feiyun Martial Pavilion and the Nine Tripod Commerce, they could be middle management personnel. In the army, they could be captains. In small forces or small cities, they could be leaders!
Moreover, Xu Ming, who had achieved perfection in internal training, was not an ordinary martial artist!
"Recently, the situation in the capital seems to be a little tense …"
Although Xu Ming was in the Savage Martial House and rarely went out, he could still feel the impending storm in Rising Clouds City.
The security of Rising Clouds City was much stricter than usual. The Rising Clouds Guards, who were originally stationed outside the city, were transferred into the city in batches, causing everyone to be in a state of panic.
The entire Rising Clouds City was under strict investigation, and it seemed that many fugitives and spies from other countries had been found.
"It seems that the rumor that the Emperor will abdicate and a new Emperor will ascend the throne at this birthday celebration is very likely true …"
When Xu Ming just returned from the Demon Beast Mountain Range, he originally wanted to deal with Lin Muqing. However, after considering that if he were to kill Lin Mu Qing at this time, it was hard to guarantee that it wouldn't incite conflict between the Lin Clan and himself, which would then affect Wen Shuai's chances of winning the fight for the throne. Thus, he gave up on the idea.
Even if Wen Shuai's chances of winning the fight for the throne seemed to be very low …
It was said that Lin Mu Qing also wanted to find trouble with Xu Ming because he strongly suspected that it was Xu Ming who had placed a bounty on him in the Assassin Organization, causing him to lose one of his hands. Even now, he still hadn't gathered enough precious herbs to recover his arm. However, because of the tense situation, he didn't dare to come looking for Lin Mu Qing.
Xu Ming's days seemed to be peaceful, but in fact, there were turbulent undercurrents.
"Haha, little brother Xu Ming, it's still peaceful here!"
Hearing this laughter, Xu Ming also laughed, "Third Prince Wen, why aren't you contending for the throne? Why are you blindly strolling around here?"
"Throne?" Wen Shuai casually sat down beside Xu Ming and poured a cup of tea for himself, "I also want to work hard and do something! However … Elder Du has already arranged everything for me. Even if I work hard to do something, it's just useless work. It's better to come here and have some peace and quiet! "
"You're quite optimistic," Xu Ming said.
Wen Shuai drank the tea, his eyes full of enjoyment, "In a few days, no matter if I win or lose, I'm afraid it'll be difficult to have such a peaceful time in the future …"
If he succeeded in the fight for the throne, Wen Shuai would become the ruler of Feiyun Country. At that time, he would be in charge of all the affairs of Feiyun Country. But if he failed … it was still unknown what would happen to Wen Shuai.
"If the birthday celebration was held a few months later, maybe I could help you change the situation …" Xu Ming sighed, "Unfortunately, my strength is still not enough to help you!"
"I don't need your help." Wen Shuai said, "When I first became friends with you, although I had the idea of using you to strengthen my power, it was more because of you! To be honest, in my position, it's really rare to be able to make a friend like you! "
Although Wen Shuai was the third prince of Feiyun Country, his identity was actually very awkward.
This was because in the fight for the throne, Wen Shuai's chances of winning were much lower than Wen Man's. Therefore, in the upper class of the country, many people avoided Wen Shuai like he was the plague, afraid that the first prince would misunderstand that they had a good relationship with Wen Shuai. As for those forces and experts who sought refuge with Wen Shuai, many of them came because of the legendary Elder Du.
"That's true …" Xu Ming agreed with Wen Shuai's words.
Actually, Wen Shuai had always been quite lonely. Old Man Du, who was the closest to him, was also his elder. Wen Shuai simply couldn't find anyone to talk to about many things in his heart — until he met Xu Ming.
"I don't know how many more times we can drink tea and chat like this!" Wen Shuai sighed, "Come, let's drink tea in place of wine. Cheers!"
"Okay!"
The two drank a cup, then very tacitly quieted down.
After a long time, Xu Ming said, "I will probably go to the birthday celebration. No matter what the result is, I will do my best to protect you!"
Xu Ming's words were not without reason. As long as he could find a way to obtain a large amount of cheat points, then he would be able to activate his cheat and increase his attack, defense, and speed to a very high level. In this way, Xu Ming could even sweep through the entire Feiyun Country!
At that time, not to mention protecting Wen Shuai, even pushing Wen Shuai to the throne would not be difficult.
"Thanks!" Wen Shuai also heard the confidence in Xu Ming's words, although he was not sure where Xu Ming's confidence came from.
'Perhaps, Xu Ming will ask his mysterious master to come out for me!' Wen Shuai thought to himself.
All along, Wen Shuai had always felt that there was an extremely powerful master behind Xu Ming. As for how powerful … it was probably at least on the same level as Elder Du!
One Elder Du was already enough for Wen Shuai to contend against the powerful First Prince. What if there were two Elder Du?
"Boss, a beauty is looking for you!" Sun Ji's loud voice sounded from afar.
Beauty?
Xu Ming and Wen Shuai could not help but turn to look. They saw that Sun Ji was still rushing over from afar, but a lithe figure had already arrived in front of them.
"Miss Quan?"
"Quan Xin?"
Wen Shuai and Xu Ming were both surprised — why would Quan Xin be here?
"Xu Ming, that's your residence, right? I'll sleep here tonight! "Quan Xin pointed at a small building not far away.
"Uh … Yes." Xu Ming was stunned. He hadn't realized what was going on, so he just replied subconsciously.
"Alright, then I'll go in first!" Quan Xin said and ran "impatiently" toward the small building. "Oh right, Xu Ming, come in too. I have something to tell you!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Quan Xin had already entered the small building and closed the door.
"What … What's going on?" Xu Ming was stunned. "Who can tell me what's going on?"
"Bo … Boss!" At this time, Sun Ji ran over breathlessly. Obviously, Sun Ji had already tried his best to run, but he still could not catch up with Quan Xin's speed. "That beauty is looking for you!"
"I know …" Xu Ming was still in a daze — What's going on? Sleep here tonight?
"Brother Xu Ming!" Wen Shuai stood up and clasped his fists. "I'm impressed, I'm impressed. I didn't expect that even Miss Quan, who is known for her coldness, would be taken care of by you! Since that's the case, I won't disturb you anymore. I'll take my leave first! Er, by the way … I wish you a sweet dream! "
After saying that, Wen Shuai raised his eyebrows with a weird smile as if to say — You're really something!
"Let's go, don't be a hindrance here!" Before leaving, Wen Shuai dragged Sun Ji away.
Chapter 52
Seeing Wen Shuai and Sun Ji run off into the distance and then turn back to laugh weirdly at him, Xu Ming suddenly had a feeling that he was at a loss for words.
"I really don't know what is going on …"
However, no one listened to his explanation. Wen Shuai and Sun Ji had already put on an expression that said, "We understand, you don't need to pretend anymore" and left.
"Sigh …"
Xu Ming helplessly sighed and then turned towards his house.
However, when he reached the door and was about to push it open, he suddenly had a feeling that there was a dreadful monster on the other side of the door.
Xu Ming took a deep breath. "I don't care what kind of tricks she is playing. I will deal with whatever comes my way."
Regarding Quan Xin, although Xu Ming admired her, he was still on guard against her. After all, in order to revive the Sixteen Flux Sect, Quan Xin was skilled in all kinds of disguises. He had to be on guard against this kind of woman.
However, Xu Ming wasn't afraid. All schemes and schemes were useless in front of the [Detection] cheat.
"I want to see what you want to do!"
Xu Ming pushed the door open and saw Quan Xin calmly sitting at the guest table. She was eating an apple without any trace of politeness.
"I say, Miss Quan Xin, what kind of play are you playing?" Xu Ming went straight to the point.
Quan Xin took a big bite of the apple. "I killed someone and came here to hide!"
Killed someone?
Xu Ming was speechless. "You killed someone, why did you come here to hide? I am neither your relative nor your friend. Speaking of which, we even have a bit of enmity. Aren't you afraid that I will expose you? "
"I am not afraid!" Quan Xin smiled sweetly. Her smile was as beautiful as a summer flower. "The person I killed was called... Lin Muqing!"
"What the!" Xu Ming opened his eyes wide. "You killed Lin Muqing!?"
"Yes! After I failed to assassinate you that day, didn't I run back to the Assassin Organization to report on my mission? Then, I saw the bounty on Lin Muqing. His value was quite high … I was quite tempted, so I accepted this mission. Today, I finally got the chance to kill Lin Muqing! "
"Then you came to me?"
"He didn't come to you immediately. To be precise, he went to Assassin's Den to claim the bounty, and then came here! "
"Why don't you go back to the Nine Tripod Commerce? Why did you come here?" Xu Ming was at a loss.
Lin Muqing's death was no small matter!
The reason why Xu Ming hadn't killed Lin Muqing wasn't because he couldn't kill him, but because Lin Muqing's death would affect Wen Shuai's fight for the throne. However, he didn't expect that instead of Xu Ming, Quan Xin would accept the mission and run over to kill him. After killing him, Quan Xin even ran over to him to seek refuge …
"Aiya, about that, Lin Muqing is dead. Isn't this a little serious?" The current Quan Xin wasn't as gentle and virtuous as Xu Ming had seen her before. Instead, she was very carefree. Perhaps, this was her true personality. "I was afraid that the Assassin Organization would sell me out. Then, the Nine Tripod Commerce wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure and would hand me over to the Lin Clan. Thinking that the Savage Martial House was the safest place, I came here to seek refuge!"
"If the Nine Tripod Commerce couldn't withstand the pressure, how could I?" Xu Ming was speechless.
"Your Savage Martial House is the safest place in the Feiyun Country. Even if the Lin Clan had a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to barge into the Savage Martial House to search for you!" Quan Xin smiled strangely, "Furthermore … Don't pretend. We are now grasshoppers on the same rope! Don't you think so? "
"You … How did you know that I was the one who put the bounty on Lin Muqing's head?" Xu Ming originally wanted to explain and say that he wasn't the one who put up the bounty. However, just as Quan Xin said, they were now grasshoppers on the same rope. He didn't want to beat around the bush.
"When I went to hand in the mission, I heard a manservant from the Hidden Assassin Organization say that the employer's method of payment was really strange. He actually used Illusory Sea Demonic Insects as payment. I don't know where he got so many Illusory Sea Demonic Insects …" Quan Xin asked with a smile, "Tell me, who else in Rising Clouds City can take out Illusory Sea Demonic Insects in such large quantities like you?"
"F * ck!" Xu Ming was speechless, "This Assassin Organization really doesn't care about protecting the privacy of their employer!"
"When you went to put up the bounty, did you not give a tip to the servant who led you there?"
"I don't think so …"
"That's it. You don't even know the rules and you went to put up a bounty in the Assassin Organization. Who's to blame if you're exposed?"
"F * ck, I really didn't know there was such an unspoken rule!"
"So … Soon, the Lin Clan will come looking for you! At that time, you can deal with them outside and I'll hide in your room! " Quan Xin said, "That's right, I ran into the Barbarian Martial House and many people should have seen it. However, only the Third Prince and your little brother know that I'm hiding in your room. In order to help you reduce the pressure, I'll give you a friendly reminder. Quickly send a message and tell the Third Prince and your little brother not to tell anyone! "
"F * ck! You caused such a big trouble and you still want me to clean up the mess for you! "
"It's because you put up a bounty that I went to kill people! Speaking of which, I was implicated by you! "
"I …"
Xu Ming didn't say anything else.
Just like what Quan Xin said, they were now grasshoppers on the same rope. Moreover, to Xu Ming, Lin Muqing had to die because of his obsession.
Now that he knew that Lin Muqing was dead, Xu Ming's obsession of "Lin Muqing and Lin Han must die" had lessened by a lot.
"Lin Muqing is already dead. When will I find a chance to get rid of Lin Han and completely eliminate this obsession? It can also be considered as repaying the karma of the original owner of this body!"
…
"What? Lin Muqing is dead? "
When Wen Shuai received Xu Ming's message, his first feeling was that something bad was going to happen. However, after thinking about it, the Lin Family was originally a force of the First Prince's faction. Even if something bad was going to happen, how bad could it be? Could it be that the Lin Family dared to come find trouble with him?
Immediately, Wen Shuai replied, "You don't need to worry about me. You just need to be careful! During this time, it's best if you don't leave the Savage Martial House! "
…
Lin Family.
The atmosphere was heavy.
The family's successor had been killed. This was undoubtedly a big matter.
The Lin Family Head, Lin Muqing's father, Lin Yubo, had an ugly expression on his face.
The faces of the Lin Family elders were also very ugly.
Among the elders, there were a few who wished for Lin Muqing to die so that their children could succeed the family head. However, now that Lin Muqing had really been killed, their mood was also not good. The death of their family's successor was not only a blood feud for the Lin Family, it was also a slap to their face.
After a long time, Lin Yubo's hoarse voice sounded, "Have you investigated clearly?"
Lin Yubo's tone was calm, but it was like a volcano that was about to erupt.
"We have investigated clearly. It was the assassination organization's bounty on Lin Muqing. Someone took the bounty and killed Lin Muqing. " Elder Lin Yucheng, who was in charge of the family's intelligence, said, "After investigation, the one who issued the bounty should be Xu Ming from the Savage Martial House. The one who took the bounty should be a remnant of the Sixteen Flux Sect — — Quan Xin."
Immediately, the elders began to talk all at once.
"I have already said that the remnant of the Sixteen Flux Sect cannot be left alive!"
"Quickly go to the Nine Tripod Commerce and capture that Quan Xin!"
"A disciple of the Savage Martial House dared to kill our Lin Family's successor! Let's go to the Savage Martial House and demand an explanation! "The fiery Elder Lin Yuzhan couldn't help but stand up.
Lin Yuzhan had been in the Xiantian realm for many years. His strength was second only to the family head, Lin Yubo.
All the elders looked at Lin Yubo. He was the family head and the one who had died was his son. This matter should be decided by him.
Chapter 53
"Yubo."
The First Elder, who was the oldest and most experienced, finally spoke up. "Mu Qing's death must be avenged. There is no doubt about it. However, a storm is brewing in the capital. Every decision you make will affect the rise and fall of the Lin Family. You must be careful when taking revenge. Do not let your hatred get to your head. "
Lin Yubo took a deep breath and tried to remain calm. "Yes, Uncle Hai. I will inform the First Prince."
"This is the right thing to do." After Lin Hai finished speaking, he narrowed his eyes. It was as if speaking a few words was a tiring thing for an old man like him.
However, the higher-ups of the Lin Family knew that this old man who looked like he had one foot in the grave was actually very powerful. He was not any weaker than Lin Yubo. Because of his strength and prestige, Lin Hai's words carried a lot of weight in the family. Even Lin Yubo did not dare to contradict him.
Lin Yubo sent a message to the First Prince. Soon, he received a reply.
Looking at the reply, Lin Yubo couldn't help but smile.
"What did the First Prince say?" The surrounding elders asked.
"The First Prince is currently receiving an important guest. It is not convenient for him to talk to me." Lin Yubo said. "However, the First Prince told us to be prepared. He will give us a chance to kill Xu Ming."
Give us a chance to kill Xu Ming?
"Then it will be easy!" The elders were delighted.
In their opinion, killing Xu Ming was not difficult. After all, Xu Ming was not a Xiantian Realm warrior. Any one of the elders could easily kill him. The difficult part was that Xu Ming was hiding in the Savage Martial House. They had no chance to kill him.
"It is a pity that we don't know where Quan Xin is hiding. We can't find her in such a short time!" Elder Lin Yucheng said. "Otherwise, we can kill both of them so that Mu Qing can rest in peace."
"She dared to kill my son. I don't care where she is hiding. Even if I have to dig three feet into the ground, I will dig her out!" Lin Yubo said through gritted teeth.
…
As the Martial House Master of the Wilderness, Gu Hanmo's information network was naturally very powerful.
Even if she didn't deliberately try to find out, the news of Xu Ming placing a bounty on Lin Muqing's head reached her ears in great detail that night.
"Lin Muqing?" Gu Hanmo didn't even have any recollection of this name. "If he dies, then he dies. It's not like it's a big deal … However, the Lin Family will definitely jump around for a while. I still have to remind Xu Ming that it's best if he doesn't leave the Martial House. It'll save him some trouble."
As for the Lin Family, Gu Hanmo naturally did not place them in her eyes. After all, even the royal family of the Flying Cloud Country was only a subsidiary power of the Savage Sect.
"As long as Xu Ming doesn't leave the Martial House, even if the Lin Family has a hundred guts, they won't dare to come to the Savage Martial House and cause trouble."
The entire upper class of the Flying Cloud Kingdom understood that the Savage Martial House was a sacred place that transcended the Flying Cloud Kingdom. Even if the Flying Cloud Kingdom was in chaos, no one would dare to bring trouble to the Savage Martial House.
Thinking up to this point, Gu Hanmo left her loft and leisurely strolled towards Xu Ming's house.
Xu Ming's house was still lit. The flickering candlelight cast two shadows on the window screen.
"Eh? Two people? "Gu Hanmo was a little surprised." It's already so late. Who would still be in Xu Ming's room? Is it Wen Shuai or Sun Ji? "
Gu Hanmo didn't wait too long and continued walking forward.
However, when Gu Hanmo was about to reach the small building, he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
"This figure seems to be … a woman?" Gu Hanmo's beautiful eyes widened. "How could there be a woman!?"
A woman?
There was actually a woman in Xu Ming's room in the middle of the night?
At this moment, Gu Hanmo couldn't describe what she was feeling. However, she didn't know why, but she felt an indescribable sourness in her heart.
"Stinking hooligan, damned pervert!" Gu Hanmo's face was red with anger. "I don't know where he found a woman, but he actually brought her back to the Martial House to spend the night! — What kind of place is the Savage Martial House? It's a sacred place for martial artists, not a brothel for romance! I … I … "
Gu Hanmo was so angry that she didn't know what to say.
"Hmph!"
She angrily paced back and forth a few steps, as if she wanted to find something to vent her anger.
However, Gu Hanmo had forgotten that male disciples bringing women back to spend the night, female disciples bringing men back to spend the night, and even male disciples bringing men back to spend the night, and female disciples bringing women back to spend the night — all of these were very normal in the Savage Martial House.
After all, it was understandable that people who practiced martial arts were full of energy!
Gu Hanmo herself didn't know why such an understandable matter would make her so angry.
"Hmph, this Xu Ming really doesn't let people have peace of mind! His current age is really the golden age for cultivation. At this time, he actually spends his energy on other things! It's simply wasting his talent … "Gu Hanmo thought for a while. This must be the reason why she was so angry.
Yes, this must be the reason.
She hated iron for not becoming steel!
"No, I have to talk to him!"
Gu Hanmo was about to take a step forward and knock on the door when she suddenly thought, "What if I see something I shouldn't see?"
"Hmph!"
After thinking for a while, Gu Hanmo heavily snorted and walked away.
"You can die on a woman's belly!"
However, just as Gu Hanmo was about to vent her anger and leave, a voice came from inside the room.
"Hey, hey, hey, big sister, this is my house, okay? You came here to seek refuge. Why do you have so many requests? Just obediently sleep in the hall! "This was Xu Ming's voice.
"Hmm? Seek refuge? Sleep in the hall? " Gu Hanmo couldn't help but be shocked and stopped her footsteps. The plot seemed to be different from what she had imagined!
"Listen again!" Gu Hanmo went forward again.
"Xu Ming, do you know how to have tender feelings for the fairer sex? Don't you feel embarrassed letting a weak woman like me sleep in the hall? "
A woman's voice came out. Hearing it, Gu Hanmo felt the same. That's right, do you know how to have tender feelings for the fairer sex? How can you let a weak woman sleep in the hall? You're simply not a man!
But for some reason, when she found out that Xu Ming was so "not a man", Gu Hanmo was secretly happy.
"Weak woman? A weak woman like you almost took my life, and now you want to take Lin Mu Qing's life. You call yourself a weak woman? "
"Why can't I? Why can't I? Why can't I?" Quan Xin's heart was beating fast. "Besides, it's dangerous for me to sleep in the hall! If you take advantage of the fact that I'm asleep at night and crawl out of the bedroom, then … "
"Damn, I'm not that bored, okay?" Xu Ming didn't deny that as a normal man, it was inevitable that he would be impulsive when he saw a beautiful woman. However, Xu Ming wasn't the kind of man who thought with his lower body.
"If you're not that bored, then let me sleep on the bed! At least the bedroom has a lock, so I can sleep more peacefully! "
The two of them were arguing over who should sleep in the bedroom and who should sleep in the hall.
"Take Lin Mu Qing's life?" Gu Hanmo thought about it from outside and understood. "No wonder my information said that Quan Xin disappeared after entering the Savage Martial House. So she was hiding here!"
Immediately, Gu Hanmo angrily thought, "This assassin is really something. After killing someone, she hid in the employer's room. What kind of situation is this!"
Thinking of this, Gu Hanmo tried to maintain a friendly smile as he knocked on the door.
"Who is it?"
The room stopped arguing and Xu Ming asked.
"It's me."
With only one word, Xu Ming could tell that it was Gu Hanmo!
This was Gu Hanmo's male voice after she disguised herself as a man.
Xu Ming quickly opened the door, "Martial House Master Gu, why are you here?"
"I came to remind you of something." Gu Hanmo unceremoniously walked in and looked at Quan Xin. "You put a bounty on Lin Mu Qing's head, so the Lin Family will definitely try to kill you in the near future. During this time, you should stay in the Martial House. Don't worry, the Savage Martial House is absolutely safe. "
"Okay!" Xu Ming didn't have anything to do and didn't want to go out.
Moreover, the throne was about to be replaced. Even if it was to increase the chances of Marshal Wen winning, it was better to avoid trouble.
"En? This is …? "Gu Hanmo asked even though he already knew the answer.
"Quan Xin." Xu Ming unhappily said, "She was the one who killed Lin Mu Qing when she was bored, so she came to my place to take refuge."
"If you didn't put a bounty on her, why would I go?" Quan Xin argued.
But while arguing, Quan Xin's eyes kept glancing at Gu Hanmo. She always felt that Gu Hanmo's eyes were looking at her with ill intentions.
"Why does Martial House Master Gu keep looking at me? Could it be that the dignified Martial House Master of the Savage Martial House is the same as those stinky men?" Quan Xin didn't have the "Investigate" ability, so she didn't know that Gu Hanmo was actually a woman disguised as a man. She found that ever since Gu Hanmo came in, his eyes had never left her. She couldn't help but panic, thinking that this Martial House Master Gu had taken a fancy to her.
"Xu Ming is still the most reliable! Although he is stingy and won't even let me use his bedroom, his eyes are much more upright! "Quan Xin secretly said.
But how could Quan Xin know that it wasn't that Xu Ming was naive, but that Xu Ming had watched all kinds of erotic action films from all over the world. Although his heart wasn't as firm as a rock, it wasn't to the point that he would pounce on a beautiful woman like a dog.
Xu Ming wasn't a saint, but he wasn't a stallion either.
"I was outside the door and I seemed to have heard the two of you arguing about something?" Gu Hanmo said.
Quan Xin hastily said, "No … nothing!"
Xu Ming smiled and said, "Nothing, it's just that I wanted her to sleep in the main hall, but she wanted to snatch my bedroom!"
"Xu Ming, this is your fault!" Gu Hanmo reprimanded, "How can you let a girl sleep in the main hall?"
Quan Xin should have been happy when she heard Gu Hanmo speaking in her favor, but she didn't know why, but she couldn't feel happy. Furthermore, Quan Xin felt that Gu Hanmo's words were very sanctimonious, like a leader speaking in a dignified manner.
Sure enough, Quan Xin immediately heard Gu Hanmo say, "I think it's not convenient for Quan Xin to sleep here. Why don't you sleep at my place?"
Sleep at your place!?
Xu Ming already knew that Gu Hanmo was a woman disguised as a man, so when he heard this, he didn't feel that there was anything wrong with it.
