Sun Zhengzong was so frightened that he hurriedly retracted his words, covered his face with his hands, and stared at Li Yunxiao with a resentful expression. But he couldn't figure out how he could make the other party slap in the face because he was a nine-star warrior's martial arts power, and he felt that there was no way to avoid it, and he had to be hit.

"Take advantage of my good mood, get out of here!" Li Yunxiao broke off, and Sun Zhengzong immediately showed a hideous face and left!

Li Chunyang's eyes burst out with a hint of murderous aura, and he said coldly: "Boy, I offended a third-order alchemist, let the tiger return to the mountain and stay in trouble! I'll go up and kill him!"

"No!" Li Yunxiao said in a deep voice: "All alchemists who are registered with the Alchemist Guild are only under the jurisdiction of the Alchemist Guild. Although he only has third-order strength, he can be regarded as a person with status in the Fire Crow Empire, and if he dies for no reason, the Alchemist Guild will definitely find out about us. Let him go back, he won't be able to make a big wave. ”

Li Chunyang was stunned when he heard this, pointed to the badge in Li Yunxia's hand and said, "Don't tell me, this is true?"

Li Yunxiao snorted coldly: "Of course it's true, Tianwu Continent, who dares to copy this thing?"

A trace of cold sweat oozed from Li Chunyang's forehead, and he asked carefully, "Then you...... You, you're really ......"

"Well, it's just a small alchemist. Li Yunxiao said casually.

The room was silent for a while, and suddenly Li Chunyang's roar was heard.

"Little brute, how much else do you have to hide from me!

Chen Dasheng in the wooden barrel also smiled bitterly: "Big brother, you really have a successor! I'm afraid that the entire Tianshui Kingdom won't be able to find a second person!"

Li Chunyang still blew his eyes and glared at the beard and scolded: "This kid ...... The boy ...... "but it was hard to hide his extreme joy."

Chen Dasheng smiled bitterly: "If my reserve has one-tenth of the achievements of the clouds, I will be satisfied." ”

Li Yunxiao glanced at him and said, "The old man calls you a younger brother, also called Dasheng, could it be that you are Chen Zhen's grandfather?

Li Chunyang's eyes flashed with sadness, and he sighed: "Dasheng Wudi has become like this completely for me." I was supposed to go to that battle, but I was in retreat. King Xiao Wu was in a hurry, so he chose Dasheng to go with him. ”

Li Yunxiao was surprised: "King Xiao Qing, could it be that the internal injuries on his body were also suffered during the war that you said?"

Li Chunyang nodded and said: "Yes, in order to compete for the position of the upper vassal state of the Fire Wu Empire, the Tianshui Kingdom and the Hundred Warring States sent masters to fight to the death in Kunjin City at the junction of the two countries! Although the number of participants was not large, the tragedy was no less than that of a million army clashes. Under that battle, the five squad leaders of the Zhenguo Shenwei at that time were killed one after another, and Xiao Qingwang's deputy, Zhou Lin, who was also in the realm of the Martial King, also killed Shengren. This is where the root of the disease falls. ”

Although he didn't see it with his own eyes, he could imagine the level of brutality of the fighting. Chen Dasheng bitterly recalled: "Although I won a miserable victory in Tianshui Country back then, I also injured myself eight hundred. There were more than 100 people who went, all of whom were masters above the martial arts level. Only a dozen came back alive. And they're basically crippled. At that time, I thought that I would not live long, and my brother invited Sun Zhengzong from the Huowu Empire to control my injuries for me. ”

Li Yunxiao was stunned and said: "No wonder the leaders of the current Zhenguo Shenwei are all young guys, and the old ones are all dead. I can't imagine that the ranking of a small kingdom can cause such a tragic battle!

Li Chunyang listened to what he said and scolded with a smile: "People are young guys, and you are a baby who drinks milk!" His eyes were also a little gloomy, and he began to explain the ranking battle.

The Fire Crow Empire is one of the three major empires in the southern part of the Tianwu Continent, with a total of nine subsidiary kingdoms, divided into the upper three kingdoms, the middle three kingdoms, and the lower three kingdoms. If there is a strong martial sect or a fourth-order monarch-level alchemist in the kingdom, and he is willing to stay in the kingdom, then this country will automatically rise to the top country.

If there are less than three positions in the upper country, the rest will be contested by the middle country. And the middle country also needs conditions, that is, there must be a strong martial king of the Five Elements Realm or a third-order alchemist.

Five years ago, there happened to be a vacancy for a place in the upper country, and there were a total of three countries that were eligible to compete, namely Tianshui Kingdom, Hundred Warring States and Dongshu Kingdom. Although the Eastern Shu Kingdom has a third-order alchemist in charge, its strength is still a lot worse than that of the Tianshui Kingdom and the Hundred Warring States. So this spot is up for grabs between the two countries.

Li Yunxiao suddenly said, "Then how do you decide the outcome of the ranked battle?

Li Chunyang's eyelids widened, and he scolded with a smile: "Although the resources of each country belong to themselves, once they break through to the third-order alchemist or the martial king of the Five Elements Realm, they must go to the Fire Crow Country to register as the middle force of the empire." Once there is war in a great country, it must obey the deployment. Of course, the benefits after registration are also enormous, and every year the Fire Crow Kingdom will allocate a large number of various cultivation resources. ”

He continued: "Therefore, the third-order alchemist and the Martial King powerhouse are both valuable resources, and the Fire Crow Empire will also pay close attention to avoid damage as much as possible. The criterion for judging victory or defeat is to fight until one side admits defeat. If you don't admit defeat, you will continue to kill until you kill all the national strength of a country!"

Li Yunxiao sighed: "I can't imagine that it is so cruel for a ranking!"

Li Chunyang's expression was straight, and he said coldly: "Cruel? To survive on this continent, the most important thing is strength! And what is the guarantee of strength? Over there are resources! Behind the ranking battle is the battle for resources! There was once a kingdom that refused to admit defeat to the death, the entire country was uprooted, and the royal family was also slaughtered!"

Chen Dasheng, who was soaked in the wooden barrel, sighed: "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs!"

Li Chunyang said: "And what really determines the strength is the high-end combat power, which means that all countries must recruit strong warriors." And behind many empires is the support of powerful sects and families, such as the Fire Crow Empire that we are attached to, and the backer behind us is the Jutian Sect. ”

"Jutian Sect?" Li Yunxiao was stunned for a moment, and his face became a little strange.

He vaguely remembered that his eldest apprentice Hua Qianshu seemed to have accepted a disciple, who was the son of the sect master of the Jutian Sect, as if he had forgotten what it was called. At the beginning, Hua Qianshu also specially brought to meet him, and he didn't give him any meeting gifts, so he casually pointed him out twice. In terms of time, it has been twenty or thirty years.

Li Yunxiao thought hard but couldn't remember, what was that kid's name, he really couldn't remember......

"That's good!" Li Chunyang showed a look of horror in his eyes, and said solemnly: "It is rumored that Qi Feng, the sect master of the Gathering Heaven Sect, is a Martial Emperor master of the Seven Realms, and he is only one step away from the Eight Desolation Martial Venerables! ”

Li Yunxiao looked stunned for a while, and said secretly in his heart: Oh, I remembered it, it was called Qi Feng, I didn't expect him to be the sect master, and Xiaohua had also advanced to the Martial Emperor, this should be something after my fall. At that time, he was still stuck in the realm of the Eight Desolations Martial Venerable.

Li Chunyang warned unusually carefully: "Yunxiao, if you have the opportunity to go to the Fire Crow Empire in the future, remember not to offend the people of the Gathering Heaven Sect. Jutian Sect is just an inner disciple, even if His Majesty the Emperor of the Fire Crow Empire sees it, he has to laugh three times. If we are offended, it will be absolutely doomed!"

Li Yunxiao smiled lightly: "Don't worry, if they don't come to provoke me, I won't offend them." ”

Li Chunyang fainted for a while, and hurriedly said: "Sooner or later, something will happen to your character! Even if I provoke you and knock out your mouthful of teeth, I have to swallow it in my stomach! Within the scope of the Fire Crow Empire, the Gathering Heaven Sect is an existence that is absolutely above the imperial family!"

Li Yunxiao put aside the topic and said, "Is it the five-year ranking battle again?"

Li Chunyang felt a sense of gloom and said in a deep voice: "Yes! The battle five years ago greatly reduced our country's strength. The most sensible thing to do is to withdraw from this contest for the upper powers. Although more taxes and resources have to be paid, it is a rare way for the country to recuperate. ”

Li Yunxiao said lightly: "Then we have to speed up, with the current state of Your Majesty, I am afraid that we may not be willing to withdraw from the competition." Only by putting Prince Moon on the throne can I convince him to quit the ranked battle. ”

Chen Dasheng exclaimed, "Prince of the Moon?"

Li Chunyang sighed and briefly explained the current situation and the Li family's decision.

Chen Dasheng said sadly: "Your Majesty's treatment of Zhongliang like this really cools our hearts. It's a pity that I, a dying person, will be entrusted to the eldest brother and Yunxiao in the future. ”

Li Chunyang came from his heart, and his heart was like a knife: "I don't worry, as long as my Li family is in one day, the Chen family will not fall!"

Li Yunxiao said with a smile: "It's just the poison of extreme cold, there is no need to part with life and death like this." I see that King Xiao Qing also has this kind of cold poison in his body, although it is not much, but it also penetrates deep into the bone marrow, you should be injured by the same person, and that person's cultivation is this kind of extremely cold energy. ”

Chen Dasheng said hatefully: "Yes, it is the number one master of the Hundred Warring States, Martial King Yi Xiaoshan!"

Li Yunxiao seemed to be thoughtful, and groaned slightly, "Before, in the small courtyard, the martial monarch powerhouse next to Lao Ba performed an ice martial art, it seems to be this kind of extremely cold energy, but the cultivation is not enough, and the difference between it and the cold poison in your body is huge. ”

"What?" Li Chunyang was shocked, his eyes gradually became cold, and the murderous aura in his eyes turned, "I understand, no wonder this kid is so talented that he will come to my Li Mansion to be a low-level subordinate, and he climbs so fast!

Li Chunyang's teeth itched with hatred, and he regretted: "If I knew this was the case, I should have killed this person as soon as possible! Now that he has escaped, I am afraid that it will be difficult to hunt him down!"
