Chapter 49 Lu Xueying

After returning to the camp, Yingkong gradually calmed down, the fierce fighting spirit of the pre-battle preparations subsided, the concentration of the battle and the passion for the enemy disappeared, and the joy of victory after the battle gradually dissipated with time. On the other hand, Yingkong involuntarily thought of Zhang Fan's head that was held by him, remembered Zhang Fan's eyes that were round and full of fear, and an indescribably disgusting and uncomfortable feeling rose from the bottom of his heart. After all, even though Yingkong has worked hard to adapt to this world, he is not a person who grew up in this world after all, it is difficult to kill decisively, and he cannot end the lives of others without care, although that person is an enemy.

Yingkong believes that he will eventually be able to adapt to this beautiful and dangerous, wonderful but cruel world of cultivators in the future, but that is the future, not the present.

Why do I have nothing to do to hold people's heads, just hack them to death, eh, how did I think of doing such a thing, I will never do it next time! By the pool in the camp, Yingkong thought to himself, and then he looked at his hands, suddenly, Yingkong felt that his hands were covered with blood, he knew that this was completely his own mental effect, but he still felt a disgusting and uncomfortable feeling from the bottom of his heart. So, while washing his hands, Yingkong vomited 'uh-huh', of course, he didn't spit out anything.

"Hee-hee, don't believe rumors, I've learned this from you twice! The girl's crisp voice came from behind her, and Yingkong turned her head to see that it was Lu Xueying. Yingkong remembered her and knew that she was a smart, rational and perceptive woman. It's so annoying to show your slightly unbearable side in front of a girl you admire. So Yingkong didn't speak, just looked at her fixedly.

"Previously, I meant that before I met you, at that time, my understanding of Qin Gongzi and you was completely based on rumors, and it was obvious that the rumors were ridiculous and untrue. After seeing the heroic appearance of the childe, I wondered why such rumors could spread, and I also learned the truth that rumors cannot be trusted. Lu Xueying talked eloquently, with a look of wisdom beads in her hands, full of confidence, "Today, Gongzi, you have shown your might, and you have defeated Wei Tai with the magic of the Four Extremes of Fire Dao Method, and while you have achieved prestige, rumors have also followed." I heard that the fourth prince of Qin is the most talented and talented heir of the Qin clan in the Burning Sky, and the talent of the fourth prince is so high that the Burning Sky Qin clan is worried that the fourth prince will be jealous and unfavorable to his growth, so he hides him. The prestige of the three heroes of the Qin clan is to cover up his younger brother's amazing talent, and the notoriety of the four sons who are unlearned and incompetent is also to hide people's eyes and ears, as evidenced by the fact that the four sons can escape from the Burning Sky Rebellion and ascend to heaven. I also thought that this rumor should not be far from the reality, but I still found that the rumor was not true, so from you, I learned twice that rumors cannot be trusted. ”

Where did these rumors come from, Yingkong thought to himself, the person who made up this rumor is very level, so I almost believed it. Yingkong squinted slightly and looked at Lu Xueying, "How did you find out that the rumors are untrue? Why, isn't this son the kind of person with amazing talents?"

"Childe's combat power is superb, far beyond his peers, and he is definitely a genius of the younger generation. I have no doubt about the genius and talent of the son, but I don't believe what the rumored Qin clan people have done in order to protect the fourth prince. The reason is that I just saw you nauseating and vomiting by the pool, washing your hands desperately, hehe, I'm here! You can't fool me. Speaking of this, Lu Xueying showed a cute smile that was rarely seen on weekdays, but soon turned cold,

"Only a weak chicken who has just entered the society would do something as childish and ridiculous as you because of killing blood! Could it be that the people of the Qin clan tried their best to protect the fourth prince, but they did not carry out a little bit of cultivation and training for the fourth prince? Therefore, this rumor is still false, even if it sounds very true, if it is not for what I saw today, I am afraid I will take it seriously.

Moreover, according to my speculation, the person who fabricated this rumor should be the person behind the fourth prince. Lu Xueying analyzed, behaved calmly and calmly, and after the analysis, she blinked and looked at Yingkong, with a little pride on the corner of her mouth that she didn't notice.

Listening to Lu Xueying's guidance and talking, Yingkong found that she was more and more appreciative of her, she said that it was the person behind Qin Wuxu who made up this rumor, and it was really the most likely to think about it. Ying Hollow thought so in his heart, but said on his lips, "Xue Ying, you said that it was the person behind me who made up the rumors, why do you think so?"

Although Lu Xueying was a little dissatisfied with him directly calling herself Xueying, she could feel that the other side was asking questions because she intended to test herself, so she replied, "After the Burning Sky Rebellion, although the people and horses loyal to the city lord were killed, but the dragons were leaderless, although the people and horses from all walks of life had similar goals, they did not belong to each other and acted independently, even if they were Luo Fang generals, it was difficult to merge them into one. What they need most at the moment is a figure who can carry the banner of Burning Sky City and convince all parties. Obviously, a stunningly talented young genius, a young master who was carefully protected and cultivated by the Qin clan, was born at the most critical moment to rescue the crisis, such a person is the most suitable person to carry this banner. They have carefully fabricated this rumor just to build momentum for you and build confidence for those who are still loyal to the Burning Sky Qin Clan!"

"Very good!" Yingkong applauded lightly, "But have you thought about it? Wouldn't it be too disadvantageous for us to know such an important and confidential matter?

"Hmph!" Lu Xueying was indeed not afraid, "I am not afraid at all, because I know that Gongzi, you will never kill me, carry out the so-called murder and extermination! You can't even stand the bloodshed in the duel, and you feel uncomfortable." How could someone like you do something to a little woman like me? hehe, so I'm not scared at all, you can't threaten me at all. ”

"So, are you going to eat me?" said Yingkong with a helpless look.

Regarding Yingkong's helplessness, Lu Xueying didn't seem to hear it, and there was no response, but the corners of her mouth that rose gently seemed to be saying again: Yes, I just ate you, how can you drop it!

Yingkong smiled, "Xue Ying, why did you say that this fabricated rumor spread so quickly that many people believed it to be true? Do you know why?"

This is because Childe behaves like a genius who was born out of nowhere, and it is easy to believe that you are the kind of person who has been carefully cultivated in the legend, who concentrates on cultivation and then becomes a blockbuster. Seriously, I once suspected that you were not the fourth son of the Qin family, but the Burning of the Town Monument and the Four Poles of Flame are not fake, and the identity of the son is beyond doubt. So, although it is unbelievable, I can only speculate like this: Childe, you are a real super genius who is even more powerful than the rumors, and you have never been valued by the family, and the young son of the city lord who escaped by luck has quickly grown into an eye-catching young genius, which is amazing. Speaking of this, Lu Xueying also showed a look of appreciation and admiration.

"That's right! You guessed it. Yingkong took a step closer to landing Xue Ying, "The unshirkable responsibility, the unbearable burden, and the huge physical and mental pressure like a mountain, if these fail to destroy you, then these will make you stronger and stronger! Fortunately, I was not defeated by these calamities, I continued to learn, keep improving, and finally have the amazing rapid growth you said!"

I say this to tell you that I learn, improve, and progress very quickly, and I can quickly overcome my weaknesses and defects. You say, how long does it take for me to go from a person who kills enemies and still feels bloody, to a person who kills innocents indiscriminately to protect secrets?!" Yingkong said, already holding the killing sword, and Sen Leng's sword blade was pointing at Lu Xueying.

Lu Xueying looked at the killing sword that was glowing with sword energy, and she was really a little flustered in her heart, because she wasn't sure if he really decided to kill people or just scare herself. Although according to his own inference, the most likely thing is that he is just scaring himself and saving some face, but as he said, he is a fast-growing person, and he may not take the killing of himself as a necessary test of growth. In this way, it is really possible for him to kill the killer, and it is really difficult to guess what different thoughts these extraordinary geniuses have.

"Don't get me wrong, Childe, I don't mean anything malicious. Lu Xueying finally relented, she didn't want to risk her life to gamble for these messy things, "If I intend to be your enemy, just record the image when you are desperately washing your hands, and then spread it!"

"Then what are you doing for so long, to show Xue Ying that your ice and snow are smart and quick-witted?" It seemed that she had succeeded in fooling her, Yingkong thought in her heart.

"I guess that's how it can be understood. I really wanted to show my ability and intelligence, and I did it so that I could take the initiative in the next collaborative conversation. After all, you saved my life. ”

"Cooperation, what cooperation?" Yingkong was a little puzzled.

"After the Burning Sky Rebellion, many families and sects wanted to benefit from this turmoil, and our Lu family in Hengyue City was no exception! But before, it was difficult to win if we were loyal to the old city lord, and Wu Yao, the deputy city lord, was a wolf-hearted and treacherous person, and our Lu family disdained to cooperate with such a person! But with the rise of the fourth prince, we saw the hope of victory for the Qin family. Therefore, I am here to seek cooperation, and when necessary, our Lu family will provide some help, and if you need anything, we can also try to help. Lu Xueying explained that her attitude was very sincere.

"Having said that, how do I know you won't betray me? Seriously, I have a hard time trusting you. For the sake of safety, I'll just kill you!" Hearing Yingkong say this, Lu Xueying immediately became anxious, and was about to continue explaining, but Yingkong said again, "You said that you are seeking cooperation, since it is cooperation, what do you want from the Lu family to help us? What are the benefits you seek?"

"What our Lu family is looking for is an opportunity to enter Yuanhai!" Lu Xue said in a solemn tone, "After all, Chuanduan Continent is not as rich in resources and abundant as Yuanhai. If you have the opportunity to gain a foothold there, you must seize it. ”

"Well, yes, I see. Yingkong paused, "I can promise to cooperate with your Lu family! As long as you, as long as Xue Ying you, promise me one condition!"

"What conditions?" Lu Xueying blurted out, and then she was a little worried, afraid that he would take the opportunity to put forward some very excessive conditions.

Yingkong smiled, "When you saw me washing my hands by the sink before, you immediately guessed that I was a weak chicken who had just entered society, and said that I was from here." My condition is that you have to tell me, Xueying, how did you overcome this situation back then, how did you get rid of this mentality, and you have to help me get rid of it!"

When Lu Xueying heard him say this, she knew that her initial judgment was correct, he couldn't do it at all, what kind of killer was painful, killing people was completely scaring himself, but the hateful thing was that he was really scared. However, now that a cooperation has been reached, there is no need to worry about it. Lu Xueying looked at Yingkong's eyes, "Let's go, let's go out for a walk together, I'll talk as we go." ”

"I'll tell you, but you can't tell anyone, absolutely not. Back then, when I killed the enemy for the first time, I was even worse than you! Lu Xueying and Yingkong talked about their former hesitation and subsequent growth.

······

After talking to Lu Xueying, listening to her tell about her mental journey, and listening to her talk about a lot of interesting things when she was young, Yingkong felt that she was not so uncomfortable in her heart. This is not that Lu Xueying's so-called explanation has played a role, but after communicating with others about similar experiences, the uncomfortable emotions have been alleviated. Yingkong is not the kind of person who is soft and knotted, and everything is tangled and lingering in his heart, Yingkong is relatively chic, and soon, Yingkong looks at his hand, and will no longer think of the enemy's head that he held in it.

······

Early in the morning, the battle for the keys begins.

The Stone Giant spliced his hands together, and his palms formed a huge battle platform. The Battle of the Keys will take place four times until the thirty-two keys have been distributed. Those who are eligible to participate in the battle for the key are not divided into batches, as long as they jump on the palm of the giant, they are considered to participate in the competition, but regardless of the gain or loss, each person can only jump on the palm of the hand once, and cannot participate in the battle for the key more than once.

When the Mountain Stone Giant announced the start of the first key battle, most people maintained a wait-and-see attitude, they didn't want to be in the same batch with people who were too strong, and no one jumped into the palm of their hands for a while, Yingkong thought about starting early and ending early, and jumped first and stepped on the palm of the Mountain Stone Giant.

Seeing that someone was the first to step into the duel of the secret key battle, the person who was not to be outdone immediately jumped on the palm of his hand, and then many people jumped up one after another. After a while, the giant platform was already full of people.
