Chapter 41 Good news

Late at night.

Feixue City, Wei's old house.

"Don't you see what time it is? You disturbed my sweet dreams. If it's nothing important, I'll peel your skin off!" Wei Hongkuo came to the front hall with a blanket on, yawned with his mouth covered, and sat down next to the only lit candlestick.

"Fourth Master, it's news about Jiang Xuan." Wei Yuanzhong stepped forward and said, his face couldn't stop smiling.

"Jiang Xuan?" Wei Hongkuo still looked very sleepy, and said indifferently, "Didn't they say that Chen Yuanzhou went to challenge him? What? Did the bastard come back from the mountain early? How many moves did he hold out against Chen Yuanzhou?" In the past six months, the Wei family basically didn't pay much attention to Jiang Xuan. Although Jiang Xuan managed to turn the tide and even had the possibility of leading the Jiang clan to annex the Shentu clan, this was not a big deal for the Wei family. Even if the Jiang clan became the largest clan in Heitan Mountain, a clan was just a clan. It didn't even have a calamity realm. It was just a group of barbarians with no influence. Almost no one in the Wei family talked about Jiang Xuan and the Jiang clan. Only a few people would still pay a little attention to it. Among them was Wei Hongkuo. "He didn't come back. Something happened in the mountains." Wei Yuanzhong couldn't help but smile and said, "In the afternoon, there was a sudden chaos in the earth city of the Jiang clan. It was the Chen siblings who took all their innates and entered the Black Pool Mountain. Even Lord Lei Hong entered the mountain first. The innate of the Jiang clan asked the guards of the Chen siblings. It is said that... Jiang Xuan met the three brothers of the Ge family in the mountains!" "Met?" Wei Hongkuo, who was rubbing his eyes, stopped and looked up suddenly. The sleepiness on his face disappeared. "What's the specific situation? Is he dead? Hahahaha! He didn't die directly in the mountains? The Black Pool Mountain is more than ten thousand miles away. He actually met the three demons of the Ge family. Hahaha! What kind of luck is this!" Just thinking about it, Wei Hongkuo laughed out loud. Although the family hardly mentioned Jiang Xuan, he arranged the affairs of Wei Baiyun and Jiang Yao. Jiang Xuan has always been a thorn in Wei Hongkuo's heart. "What happened specifically? Tell me quickly." Wei Hongkuo looked impatient. "It is impossible to determine whether Jiang Xuan is dead or alive." Wei Yuanzhong said, "This is it, Fourth Master. It is said that Jiang Xuan and the Black Armor Guards encountered the three brothers of the Ge family and fled separately. The three brothers of the Ge family chased Jiang Xuan and lost their traces. The Black Armor Guards contacted Lord Lei Hong. It happened that Chen Yuanshu and Chen Yuanzhou were present at the time. They had not seen Jiang Xuan and had no friendship. But half a year ago, Chen Yanyang, a genius of the Chen family, was assassinated. The siblings led people into the mountains to avenge their tribe." "Where did the incident happen?" Wei Hongkuo asked again. "Wufengling area... This is a map of Heitan Mountain." Wei Yuanzhong said, taking out the map from his arms and handing it to Wei Hongkuo. Wei Hongkuo opened it immediately. It was a very rough map. Heitan Mountain was too big, and the huge tribal territory was just a small area at the foot of the mountain. It was impossible to draw the details of Heitan Mountain on a map of a few feet long and wide, but generally some mountains used as coordinates were marked. Wei Hongkuo glanced at the map. Wei Yuanzhong looked at Wei Hongkuo's face, then carefully reached out and tapped on the map.

"Ah, here! Here!" Wei Hongkuo stood up suddenly and slapped the map on the table. "Then he is dead? At such a long distance, even if Lord Lei Hong went to rescue him personally, he would not be able to make it in time. It is enough for Jiang Xuan to be killed a hundred times!"

"... Actually, it may not be." Wei Yuanzhong said carefully.

"Huh?" Wei Hongkuo's eyes suddenly narrowed.

"What I mean is that the three evil heads of the Ge family have no grudges against Jiang Xuan, and Jiang Xuan is the leader of the tribe. The tribe still has some money. The three brothers have done kidnapping and extortion before, so if Jiang Xuan is smart and reports his identity, he may be able to save his life." Wei Yuanzhong said.

Wei Hongkuo frowned, and was silent for a few breaths before saying unhappily: "If that's the case, he is just a coward!"

"But... In fact, no matter what, he is finished." Wei Yuanzhong said again. "Oh?" Wei Hongkuo looked at him, "Tell me in detail."

"It's already the fourth day of the first lunar month."

Wei Yuanzhong got to the point directly, "If Jiang Xuan died directly, the entire tribe would be buried with him. If he was just captured, Lei Hong would go to rescue him personally, and the three brothers of the Ge family would have to flee for at least a few days... Jiang Xuan could not participate in the tribal life-and-death battle three days later. Without him, the innates who returned to the Jiang clan in the past six months could only survive the ten life-and-death battles on the seventh day of the first lunar month at most. They would not be able to survive the eighth day of the first lunar month and would be annexed by the Shentu tribe."

"And once the Jiang clan is annexed, no one will pay a ransom for Jiang Xuan, and Jiang Xuan will still die!"

Wei Hongkuo's eyes were brightened by what he said, and he cast an admiring look at Wei Yuanzhong.

"In other words." Wei Hongkuo said, "Jiang Xuan is either dead or captured and waited a few days before dying? Anyway, he will die?"

"That's right!" Wei Yuanzhong nodded.

"Hahahaha!" Wei Hongkuo slapped Wei Yuanzhong on the shoulder, "You are so good, Yuanzhong! You think more clearly than me, you understand more than me! You speak well!"

"It's all because of your cultivation, Fourth Master." Wei Yuanzhong bowed quickly.

"Although, I don't really care about that bastard, it's still a worry for me. I'm not worried about him, but my stubborn niece..." Wei Hongkuo put his hands behind his back again, took two steps forward, and relaxed his tone, "I don't know which gossipy person in the family told Wei Baiyun that the bastard had defeated Shen Tulie. Not only did she stop the hunger strike, but she has been practicing like crazy for the past six months. I'm really afraid that when Wei Yao gets married, Wei Baiyun will pretend to be obedient and deceive the old man, and then cause trouble when she is sent to the bride... She must be holding something bad in her heart!" "It's good now. As long as Jiang Xuan dies, she will have no more thoughts! Good news! Great news!" Wei Hongkuo shook his head and muttered "good news" and walked towards the side door. It looks like he is going to rest. Wei Yuanzhong was about to leave. "No!" Wei Hongkuo suddenly stopped, thought for a moment, turned around and said, "Wait for me to put on some clothes, I'll go see my niece now! I have to tell her the good news right away!"

...

In a remote part of the Wei family's old house, in a guarded courtyard.

Wei Baiyun, in a white dress, dances with a sword under the moon!

Ever since the mysterious man sent the news that her son killed Shen Tulie, Wei Baiyun has rekindled hope.

She was also inspired by her son's heroic deeds!

In the past six months of house arrest, except for sleeping for two hours before dawn, she has been practicing almost all the time. Now her spirit is even better than when she was in the Jiang clan. After all, she is still the daughter of the Wei family. Unless the head of the family speaks personally, no one dares to make things difficult for her in terms of food, clothing and expenses.

"As expected of Xiaojiu, the favorite of the family, you can pick up your talent even if it wasted. You have been practicing hard for the past six months. I think you are not far from comprehending the 'power of heaven and man', right? After marrying into the tribe for so many years, your temperament has not changed at all. The greater the pressure on you, the more fierce your resistance, and the more frustrated you are, the more courageous you are. Not bad, not bad."

Snap! Snap! Snap! ...

Wei Hongkuo, wearing a brocade robe, walked out of the darkness beside the wall and said with a smile on his face. He clapped his hands slowly as if he was really praising.

"Get out." Wei Baiyun stopped dancing with the sword, pointed the sword at Wei Hongkuo, and looked cold.

"Leave after that, the news about your son." Wei Hongkuo didn't care about Wei Baiyun's attitude, and began to tell with a smile.

***

In the deepest part of Black Pool Mountain.

Boom boom boom boom...

The horrible fight flattened the area of ​​several miles. There was even a huge pit with a diameter of 100 feet at the core battle site. On one side was a disheveled and crazy old man, and on the other side was a red snake with a body length of more than 10 feet.

The auras emitted by both sides were too strong.

Even if Jiang Xuan didn't use the Thousand Silk Secret Technique, he could sense it clearly.

Carefully approach the battlefield.

Another circle.

Finally, Jiang Xuan found a cliff four miles south of the battlefield. Ordinary people could overlook the city from a high place. It was not a problem to see a few miles away, but it was too far to see clearly. Jiang Xuan could see far and clearly on the cliff!

"Is that old man...Lü Kong?" Jiang Xuan frowned.

He had seen Lü Kong's portrait, and he looked pretty good. But the old man he saw now was so dirty that he could hardly see the original color of his clothes. Half of his face also showed signs of festering, and his brain seemed to be not normal.

"Master Lei Hong said that the reason why the devil Lu Kong hid in Black Pool Mountain was because he went wrong in his training, which caused him to have a bad odor and had to hide from the world. This also gave the Inspector the opportunity to catch a devil like him. It seems that he has gone even further." Jiang Xuan said secretly.

"Hahaha, little snake!"

"Little snake, here I come."

"Watch me do this!"

Buzz——

The world suddenly became silent! The energy from the crazy old man abruptly stopped the time and space of the battle. In that area, the wind stopped, the falling dust stopped in the air, and all sounds disappeared.

Except for Lu Kong's own voice.

"Destroy!" Lu Kong slashed with a knife.

He was clearly a hundred feet away from the red snake, but the knife crossed the distance of a hundred feet at the moment of slashing... This did not seem to be the ultimate speed, but a jumping time and space!

Even though he was several miles away, Jiang Xuan was shocked.

He could feel the changes in the world, and knew that with his current strength, let alone the next knife, the space and time in front would freeze him and he would be immobilized and unable to move!

"The power of this knife is probably more than a thousand times that of my chasing wind style. Lv Kong is not an ordinary calamity realm. Most of the calamity realms in Feixue City are not his opponents. Only the existence of the strength of Lord Lei Hong can defeat him..."

Dang!

At the moment when the knife light slashed the snake, a flash of light passed by the snake.

The knife light and the scales collided with a metallic sound. Lv Kong's terrifying knife could not leave even a shallow mark on the snake, not even a white mark.

"This snake is..." Jiang Xuan couldn't recognize what kind of monster it was for a while.

"Damn human, is this all you can do?" The red snake spoke human words and gave Lv Kong a contemptuous look.

"It's just a casual move to see how tough you are." Lü Kong laughed wildly, "Hahahaha, little snake, the fun has just begun!"

Bang!

A poisonous mist burst out from Lü Kong's body!

The mist quickly spread over a radius of several miles, and even the earth began to corrode.

"Do you think you can kill me with a poison array?" The red snake roared.

"Hahaha, it's obviously you, the little snake, who is chasing me!"

"You have slaughtered my tribe repeatedly, you deserve to die!"

"Evil beast! You deserve to die!"

Lü Kong disappeared from the spot and appeared in front of the snake in an instant. The knife light brought a huge force like a mountain and blasted towards the red snake. The snake was huge, but it disappeared at this moment. Its speed was not slower than Lü Kong. The huge tail swept across and hit Lü Kong's back.

Both of them were too fast.

The poisonous mist became thicker.

At first, Jiang Xuan could barely see the red snake. After all, it was big enough, and it would leave a residual image no matter how fast it was. But as the poisonous fog became thicker and the fierce battle between the two became more fierce, Jiang Xuan could not see anything clearly.

"The poisonous fog is spreading. These two guys are much higher than me, so I can't gain anything. There is no need to continue watching the battle. It seems impossible to wait for them to lose both and take advantage. I don't know how long the fight will last. Lu Kong... Go back and tell Lord Lei Hong about the situation. It's not my job to catch him. I don't have the strength to do that."

"No delay, we must rush back to the tribe before the morning of the seventh day!"

Before the poisonous fog spread completely, Jiang Xuan chose to leave.

Two hours later.

"No more fighting, little snake, if you have the guts, keep chasing me! Hahahahahahaha!" Lu Kong laughed wildly and left, a little embarrassed, but very arrogant.

Noon of the fourth day of the Chinese New Year.

Deep in the Black Pool Mountain.

"Sister, are you sure you want to separate? You always told me to be careful when I go out. Every time you go out with me, you always protect me... Black Pool Mountain is obviously more dangerous. If we separate..." Chen Yuanzhou looked at his sister, hesitant.

"Don't be so fussy. We each bring more than 20 Xiantians. What danger can there be?" Chen Yuanshu turned her head to look at her brother. "It's been almost a day and a night. Apart from seeing some black armor guards, we haven't found a hair of the three brothers of the Ge family! The opportunity to avenge the family is right in front of us! Do you want to give up just like that?"

"I'm not giving up, it's just that it's dangerous to go separately."

"Who can threaten me in the Xiantian realm? Not to mention that I bring so many people." Chen Yuanshu thought clearly, "Even if we meet the three brothers of the Ge family, you have more than 20 people, and I have more than 20 people. We can easily surround and kill the three of them!"

"What if we encounter a monster that surpasses the Xiantian?"

Chen Yuanzhou said, "It is even said that the devil Lu Kong is also in the Black Pool Mountain. They are the masters of the three brothers of the Ge family. If we go separately and meet someone, then we..."

"We are lucky that we went separately!" Chen Yuanshu continued, "Otherwise, we will all die! Going separately, half of us can still survive!"

"Uh..." Chen Yuanzhou was stunned.

He suddenly felt! What his sister said makes so much sense!

Because there are enough people, there will be no danger if they encounter those in the Xiantian realm!

If they really encounter those in the Jiejing realm, they will all die! Going separately can reduce the number of deaths!

The team was divided into two, Chen Yuanshu and Chen Yuanzhou each led more than 20 Xiantians, searching in different directions. Chen Yuanshu even thought about dividing again, but gave up after thinking about it. If it was reduced to a team of ten, it might not be able to win if it met the three brothers of the Ge family.

Four hours later.

In the night, the team led by Chen Yuanshu stopped to rest and lit a bonfire.

"Hahahahahahahaha, you are the Chen family's team?" Crazy laughter came from a distance, approaching at a high speed.
