Chapter 44: The Hunt
Qin Lie slammed his fist on Ji Wei's purple light shield that condensed in an instant, Ji Wei's body shook violently, and a trace of pale color quickly appeared on his face. A trace of blood escaped from the corner of Ji Wei's mouth, and Tie Changkong and the other two noticed Ji Wei's abnormality, and their expressions immediately changed greatly.
The four of them showed their martial arts, but under Qin Lie's rapid attack, before they could fully exert it, they were broken by Qin Lie one by one and knocked to the ground.
In Qin Lie's courtyard, four reluctant figures stood in slowly. Under Qin Lie's persecution, the four of them had no choice but to rearrange those flowers and plants according to Qin Lie's request, but their eyes were extremely cold, and they hated Qin Lie.
"Hmm, what kind of eyes are you looking at, are you not convinced?" Seeing the resentful gazes of the four of them, intentionally or unintentionally, Qin Lie frowned and glared at the four of them fiercely.
The four of them immediately retracted their gazes in fear, for fear that they would suffer an unwarranted disaster. Qin Lie didn't want to get things out of control, after all, he was the one invited by Xia Chulan, and he had to look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face, giving her a face.
Looking at Ji Weiqing's appearance of a piece of purple, the three swarthy men were originally bullying guys, and they suddenly became timid, trembling and hoeing, and then loosened the soil according to Qin Lie's arrangement, although they did not say a word on the surface, but in their hearts they greeted Qin Lie's ancestors for eighteen generations.
They claimed to be disciples of Xuantian Sect, but even the uniform of an unknown person from Yunlan City really made them look ashamed, and they no longer wanted to mention the titles of disciples of Xuantian Sect.
Especially, when they knew that Qin Lie was not valued in the Demon King Mansion, this contrast was even stronger.
"Qin Lie, I advise you to stop in moderation, we are the people of the Little Saint King, if you treat us like this, are you not afraid of death and no place to be buried?" While hoeing the grass, one of the four suddenly shouted, although it was a threat, but the confidence was very insufficient.
It seems to be a threat, but it is more like a compromise, they are afraid, the name of the dignified Xuantian Sect can't suppress an ordinary person in the Demon King's Mansion, and they were beaten without dignity and become a gardener, which is simply a loss of face for the entire sect.
"The Little Saint King knows what, if he dares to come over, I will also capture him. Qin Lie said calmly, his face unchanged at all.
"Give me hoeing grass and be a gardener!" Qin Lie immediately shouted again, supervising them in the courtyard.
That being said, Qin Lie's acceptance of the four of them as gardeners quickly caused an uproar in the palace.
The winter snow melts, the early spring comes, everything begins to recover, and the annual Dynasty Hunt is coming. Now the palace is in full swing preparing for the candidates for the hunting competition.
The so-called hunting tournament is an activity that belongs to the entire entire imperial dynasty, organized by the Jiuxuan Dynasty of the Five Emperors County, whether it is the scene or the number of people, it is one of the best, and at that time, the people of the entire Five Emperors County, whether it is the Four Great Marquis Mansions, or the Jiuxuan Dynasty, or other large or small forces, are all flocking to a vast forest on the edge of the Tianlong Empire.
Although it is on the verge of Biluo Mountain, it belongs to the common jurisdiction of the Four Marquis Mansion and the Jiuxuan Dynasty, where the ancient trees are in patches, the forests are horizontal, and the birds, beasts, insects and fish among them are countless.
Which family hunts the most demon beasts and has the highest level, then the area under the Manglin is governed by which family, and it can be regarded as a resource-rich treasure land, so every family is red.
In the past, several hunting competitions have been firmly occupied by the Jiuxuan Dynasty, even if one of them is occupied by the Taihuang Hou clan and the Quartet Houfu, but there is rarely a scene of re-election, and the town demon palace is not as good as a year, and it has not won a championship in the past 20 years, and over time, the entire town demon palace has been suppressed by the four major Hou mansions and the Jiuxuan Dynasty.
The candidates for the entire hunting competition were selected from among the descendants of the lineage, and most of the previous hunting competitions were participated by the disciples of the lineage. Qin Lie shined in the clan competition this time, so naturally he would also be invited in.
When Pang Bo and Luo Hu rushed to report the news, they suddenly saw Ji Wei and the four of them hoeing weeds, and their whole body cultivation was suppressed by Qin Lie, and they suddenly looked terrified, what are they ...... Treated like a gardener?
They knew that Qin Lie would have a conflict with those Xuantian Sect disciples, but they didn't expect that the dignified Xuantian Sect disciples would actually be called by Qin Lie as a gardener.
After being stunned for a long time, Pang Bo and Luo Hu finally reacted, and suddenly laughed dumbly.
Ji Wei and the others' eyes gradually sank, full of anger, and secretly recorded today's humiliation in their hearts. Since Qin Lie defeated the four of them, the eyes of these lowly guards and subordinates have become weird, and they no longer have the awe they used to have, but ...... Filled with contempt!
"Here you are, these are the four gardeners I just subdued, you don't have to pay attention. Qin Lie said lightly, and then said, "Are you looking for me?"
"Oh, Brother Lie, Lord Xiahou asked you to go. ”
Qin Lie frowned, what is Xiahou looking for himself? He muttered to himself at the moment, and then went to see Xiahou alone, as soon as he entered the front hall hall, Qin Lie saw Xiahou, the demon king of the town.
Dressed in a tiger's back, with long black hair flying around, and a calm breath, it seems that he has been tempered by countless battles. In this regard, Qin Lie felt very strange, how did Xiahou give birth to Xia Menglan, who was as beautiful as a fairy, since he came to the Demon King Mansion, he had only seen his father-in-law Xiahou, but Xia Menglan's mother had not seen it once.
"Qin Lie, in a few days' hunting competition, you can also participate in it on behalf of the Demon King Mansion. As soon as he saw Qin Lie, Xia Hou burst out laughing.
Even though he had known it in advance, Qin Lie was still a little surprised, and he wondered, "Hunting Competition?"
Xia Hou smiled and said, "Yes, you can also participate in the hunting competition." ”
"...... this?"
"What, don't you want to? Jiuxuan Dynasty, Taihuang Waiting for the Quartet and other old horsemen have suppressed our Demon King Mansion for so many years, it's time for them to taste it!"
Although he didn't target Qin Lie, Qin Lie could see that there was a strong anger in Xiahou's eyes.
"It seems...... For more than 20 years, just in the hunting competition, the Demon King Mansion has often been suppressed by other Hou Mansions, and Xiahou can't bear it anymore. Qin Lie thought to himself.
But on the surface, he smiled bitterly and said, "Father-in-law, it is my Qin Lie's honor for you to let me participate in the hunting competition, but ......"
"You don't have to worry about this, although there is an age limit for the competition, but there are many young talents in the Jiuxuan Dynasty to participate in this competition, and few people abide by it, but the risk is extremely high, and with the old man here, you can have no worries. He smiled and patted Qin Lie's back, his tone looking very relaxed.
"If my father-in-law comes forward, then I will listen to my father's arrangement. Qin Lie's eyes sparkled.
Qin Lie knew very well that Xiahou's move might have deeper intentions, after all, he suddenly became a blockbuster from a mortal with the naked eye, even though he had made up an almost perfect excuse, but he didn't believe in himself very much.
In this hunting competition, he is probably trying to test his true strength......
"The Four Great Princes...... Can their own cultivation compete with their genius disciples?"
On the way back, a trace of solemnity flashed on Qin Lie's face.
Back in the room, Qin Lie raced against time to enter the retreat again.
Hunting competition, this is a competition of the younger generation, and only look at the results, not the process, so you can use different means, conspiracies, and endless conspiracies.
Passing through many obstacles, hunting monsters on the way, and climbing to the highest mountain in the middle, whoever is the winner!
Although the rules jointly formulated by the Four Great Marquis Mansions and the Jiuxuan Dynasty clearly stated that no one could kill people, there were still people who died in every hunting competition.
They will either die at the hands of monsters, or at the hands of competitors, or even worse, at the hands of their companions.
Hunting competition, only look at the results, not the process!
This is not only a simple hunting competition, you are both a hunter and may be someone else's prey!
Qin Lie knew that no matter how conspiratorial it was, it was a good plan to achieve the goal, and he also knew that any conspiracy and alliance would be vulnerable in the face of interests.
In the final analysis, it is ultimately up to one's own strength.
"Hoo ......"
On the bed, Qin Lie sat cross-legged, exhaled a breath of white air, and under the control of his mind, he continued to evolve the momentum of the dragon elephant, and his anger rushed into the sky.
His blood was surging, and every pore was opening wide, swallowing chaotic qi. At the same time, the mind turned, and the primeval dragon elephant was decided, and he quickly tempered his body.
As the insights became deeper and deeper, Qin Lie's understanding of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Decision was also getting deeper and deeper.
Transforming the dragon with gas, transforming the image with bones, and evolving the dragon elephant with the physical body, he has an illusion that this exercise contains ethereal things such as the Three Thousand Great Roads, and it is also contained in it.
At the moment of operation, Qin Lie suddenly saw a vast heaven and earth in his mind, the dragon soared to the sky, like a howling Kyushu, this was a huge scene, and his entire head was buzzing and trembling.
This white qi, but the essence of the physical body, is evolving the scene of the dragon like the roaring sky, making him ethereal in his heart, forgetting everything in the outside world, and what he has in his heart is the understanding of the exercises, forming a mysterious realm and swimming in it.
"Boom!"
His flesh was as if it had been hit hard by a divine pillar, making an extremely muffled sound, but to Qin Lie's ears, it was as if his entire body and mind had resonated, his bones were resonating, and his flesh and blood were deriving.
He had never felt as strong as he was now, more powerful than before, his fists and feet were penetrated into the power of the giant elephant, opening and closing, and his body was supported by a majestic dragon force, the true dragon that had submerged into the heavenly spirit cover was now one with his spine, and the power was transmitted in all directions.
Not only that, even Qin Lie himself was frightened by this power, how could it be so powerful, this kind of power had completely surpassed the power of the Body Refining Realm, and had reached the threshold of the early stage of the Ten Thousand Xuan Realm.
