Shen Lu and Qu Jinling had not discussed it in advance, but at this moment when they would miss it, their way of thinking was surprisingly consistent.

Qu Jinling was locked by eight masters at the same time, and the strength of each of them was up and down in the Dacheng Realm, and the power of the eight people joining forces was even more terrifying. It is no exaggeration to say that if it is not stopped, Qu Jinling will definitely die.

And the most tangled thing is that Shen Lu has counted all the resistance points on the Dharma path at this time, so there has been an obvious regression in speed. He was confident that he could stop one or two people, but he couldn't immediately command the wine clone to stop the others.

Qu Jinling's mana is also very high, but she estimates that she can resist the attack of three people at most.

There are eight people coming, at most five can be stopped at this time, and the remaining three people can easily hit Qu Jinling in the dead corner and deliver a fatal blow to her.

Not to mention that by Qu Jinling's side, there is also a mysterious Xie Jinchai.

Therefore, Shen Lu and Qu Jinling knew that if they wanted to protect themselves, they would never be able to survive. The only way is to exchange lives with the other party!

Yes, the offensive mana that Qu Jinling and Shen Lu burst out almost condensed all the mana and murderous aura in their bodies, which was equivalent to letting go of everything to fight each other. In this way, Shen Lu and Qu Jinling will inevitably die tragically in the next melee, but with the strong ** power they have broken out so far, it is enough to kill at least four of these eight subordinates before they die!

Will they change their lives?

Of course not!

They had more than a dozen masters present, and Shen Lu's side was full of calculations, and Shen Lu, Xu Wenrui and Qu Jinling were only three people, plus two strange beasts.

Besides, Xie Jinchai still has hostages here, and Shen Lu and they have to throw a rat trap.

In such an advantageous situation, it is really not cost-effective to fight with the other party with your life.

Xie Jinchai's subordinates naturally didn't want to fight in this way. At the same time, Xie Jinchai himself knew that he could not let his subordinates charge brainlessly.

For Xie Jinchai, not to mention that Shen Lu's value in life is much higher than the value of death, just to prevent her subordinates from making low-level mistakes, she must also do it.

Otherwise, what kind of situation would have formed? Xie Jinchai stood by and watched his subordinates fight to a tragic death, so what would the other subordinates think of this eldest lady? People who were a little more concerned would even suspect that the eldest lady had never taken their lives seriously. In order to prevent this from happening, Xie Jinchai must stand up and stop this scuffle.

"Stop it!" Xie Jinchai shouted helplessly.

Before this sentence was finished, the six slaves and two maids, plus Shen Lu and Xie Jinchai, collectively accepted the moves, and then retreated to both sides separately, and stood against each other in a confrontational manner again.

These ten people were secretly sweating in their hearts, because they didn't know if Xie Jinchai would stop it at this critical point in time. If Xie Jinchai didn't stop it, the scene would really be uncontrollable.

Xie Jinchai also understood their thoughts, so he could only sigh helplessly.

Touching his still a little hot and painful face, Xie Jinchai raised his head and looked at Qu Jinling from afar and said, "Miss Qu, I really didn't expect to meet you in this way, I have written down the meeting gift you brought me, and I will return it several times in the future." ”

Qu Jinling smiled lightly and said, "I'm waiting for your return." ”

Xie Jinchai seems to have been made a little unbalanced by people on both sides of the enemy. She closed her eyes and was silent for a long time before she raised her head and said to Shen Lu: "Say, I agreed to your previous proposal, what kind of fighting method?"

Shen Lu saw that the other party finally compromised, and the big stone in his heart finally let go.

Hurriedly said: "Of course it's a fair duel." One person is selected on one side and competes under certain rules. The one who wins wins the other hostage. ”

"I can do what you say. But before that, I have one condition. ”

"Please. ”

Xie Jinchai said: "If someone from the Ancient Saint Empire comes to the scene, I want you to come forward to prove that the matter between us does not involve the conflict between Nanshan and the Ancient Saint Empire, at most it is our personal grudge." ”

Shen Lu frowned slightly, knowing that this was an insurance set up by Xie Jinchai for himself.

In case someone from the Ancient Saint Empire really arrived here and discovered the riot, then Xie Jinchai would be able to completely avoid being accused of some high-sounding crimes by Shen Lu as long as he completely put aside the conflicts between large families and even countries. And in this case, because of Xie Jinchai's identity, even if the four major families of Jade Emperor City and the imperial court were present at the same time, as long as there was no way to prove that Xie Jinchai had done something important that threatened the safety of the Ancient Saint Empire, they would not be able to directly stop Xie Jinchai. Because doing so, it will give the Xie family in Nanshan a handle, and if Xingshi asks for guilt, no one will be able to bear this responsibility.

In this way, Xie Jinchai is really at ease. When she wins the battle, then Shen Lu will have to be taken away by her.

But there is no way, compared to the situation when Shen Lu was completely suppressed at the beginning, Shen Lu at this time has already won a lot of advantages. If he doesn't agree, God knows what else Xie Jinchai can do.

Shen Lu suddenly raised his three fingers and said with great seriousness: "Okay, I promise you." I, Shen Lu, make an oath here, if Xie Jinchai, the eldest lady of the Xie family, is willing to exchange hostages through a fair duel, or use this method to resolve conflicts, I, Shen Lu, am willing to accompany me to the end, and I am willing to lose the gamble! If I violate my oath, I will be thundered by the sky, and the law will be destroyed!"

After finishing speaking, Shen Lu glared at Xie Jinchai with a provocative gaze, which meant to make her make a similar vow.

Xie Jinchai gritted his teeth angrily, but after thinking about it, he still stood up, raised his three fingers like Shen Lu and said: "I, Xie Jinchai, make an oath here, and then have a fair duel with Shen Lu, and everything depends on the outcome of the duel, which will never affect the fair duel, let alone go back on its word." If you break your oath, you will be imprisoned and imprisoned, and you will live forever and be an animal for the family to carry on your line!"

The oaths of these two people are more vicious than the other, and the purpose is actually obvious. In addition to being strong, you should also show it to the other party and the people on your side.

Especially Xie Jinchai. She must make a statement at this time, she must show that she can take on everything, otherwise she will become unable to hold her head up in front of her own men.

You must know that these seven slaves and four maids are not far away, and those who came to this ancient holy empire with Xie Jinchai can be said to be loyal to her.

The most commendable thing is that these people are all handsome and beautiful young boys and girls, and most of them are also because they respect the Xie family, and they want to serve the eldest lady of the Xie family, a super genius who awakened the blood of the green dragon at a young age.

As far as Nanshan is concerned, Xie Jinchai's status is really extraordinary. She can be said to be the genius that most of the young cultivators of Nanshan dream of. These seven slaves and four maids are also people who have been cultivating with Xie Jinchai since several years ago. In addition to serving her daily life, he also has to be her sparring partner, so these masters compete with each other, and their strength progresses much faster than many of their peers. The most important thing is that after the cultivation of the relationship that has been living together, the relationship between them is almost like that of biological brothers and sisters.

Xie Jinchai was actually a little arrogant in his heart, and he didn't completely regard them as friends, but he knew very well how important they were, and he shouldn't give up their company no matter what. With their presence, it will also be convenient to do a lot of things on their own, after all, they are heartfelt enough, strong enough, and united enough.

But this trip to the Ancient Saint Empire caused some rifts in their heartfelt feelings.

First of all, they also have their own families, and their parents don't want their children to become slaves of others, running around with others. It can be said that most of these people came to the Ancient Saint Empire with Xie Jinchai under great pressure.

Not long after coming to the Ancient Saint Empire, Xie Jinchai confided in them that the Xie family planned to use Xie Jinchai to inherit the lineage. They respected Xie Jinchai very much, and of course they had to solve problems for her, so Yang Chun, one of the seven slaves, followed Shen Lu to Shen's house, planning to kill Shen Lu directly.

After being killed by Shen Lu, although the remaining six slaves and four maids didn't say anything, they were actually shaken in their hearts. Within a few days of coming to the Ancient Saint Empire, their invincible eleven people had lost a general, or Brother Yang Chun, who was respected by everyone, which was a huge blow to their morale and confidence. After all, these people are not very old, and they are suddenly faced with the situation of their dearest best friend being killed, so it is naturally difficult to control their emotions.

It can be said that the rest of these people, whether they are angry or afraid, are already in a state of being ready to explode at any time.

And this flashpoint was the moment when Qu Jinling suddenly appeared just now.

They attacked together, and in addition to the slap in the face of Xie Jinchai, a person they respected immensely, there was one most important point.

The bamboo incense is gone!

Qu Jinling can stand there disguised as Zhuxiang, which means that Zhuxiang herself is very likely to have been killed.

It was because of this that they were so impulsive that they shot together. Otherwise, according to their character and trust in Xie Jinchai, they would not act rashly without orders.

Xie Jinchai was aware of the abnormal movements of his subordinates and thought of what they might be afraid of, so he planned to restrain his radical behavior. Of course, this will make the Ancient Saint Empire have nothing to do with itself.

And there is another advantage of doing this, in fact, the guards who were caught by Shen Lu and the others now have little value to Xie Jinchai, and they were originally not worthy of being exchanged with Xie Jinchai as hostages.

But if Xie Jinchai showed that he also cared about those people at this time, and was willing to do a duel for them to exchange hostages, then his subordinates of seven slaves and four maids should also be moved in their hearts, at least to prove that this eldest lady is not a cold-blooded and ruthless person.

Driven by these things, Xie Jinchai could only agree to Shen Lu's proposal in the end.
