Chapter 128: There is no advantage
Li Ming is an old powerhouse in South Wind City.
A long time ago, he stepped into the Fifth Heaven level, becoming a few masters in the South Wind City's scattered cultivation, and recently he had just entered the Star Soul Sixth Heaven level. Although it is only one of the weaker columns in the Sixfold Heavens, it is more than one step stronger than the ordinary Star Soul Fivefold Heavens powerhouses.
From the point of view of strength, no matter what, Li Ming is a six-heaven powerhouse in the end.
With him joining, the strength of the medicine collection team has increased greatly.
But......
This Li Ming has an average character.
I especially like women!
And this person is not single-minded at all, and often abandons his partner from beginning to end.
Of course, it is difficult to say who is right and who is wrong in emotional matters, and all of Li Ming's previous partners were not snatched by forced means, almost all of them were women who followed him with all their hearts. So even if Li Ming abandoned those women from the beginning, others could only secretly question and accuse him of character, which had no impact on him.
He completed the tasks in the South Wind Hall, and he did his best.
Hardly anything went wrong.
So......
Extremely creditworthy!
This time, he actually took over the escort task issued by the Lin family, and whether to accept this person or not immediately became a difficult problem for Lin Ningyu.
Accept, this person may have the idea of beating Lin Ningyu.
If he doesn't accept it, Li Ming is a powerhouse at the Sixfold Heaven level in the end, and he may offend him because of this. The most important thing is that Li Ming is not accepted, the medicine collection team does not have a sixfold heaven level powerhouse to join, and the comprehensive strength is not strong, if you want to enter the depths of the Huanggu Mountain Range and obtain the best yin attribute herbs, the difficulty will increase exponentially!
Lin Ningyu's face was extremely solemn.
Soon, Lin Ningyu gritted her teeth and made a decision.
"Li Ming is coming, let him join!" Lin Ning said in a deep voice.
"Even if he can beat my idea, what can he do? I just ignore him, at most he will pester me for a few days, in order to collect the best yin attribute medicinal materials, what if he is pestered for a few days? Anyway, he doesn't dare to use coercive means. When this mission is over, ignore him again. I don't believe it, he dares to provoke our Lin family!"
Lin Ningyu said.
"That's all it can be!" Lin Tao said with a light sigh.
"Don't worry, Miss Ningyu, you try to stay with us as much as possible, Li Ming wants to fight your idea, and he may not be able to find a chance!"
Several four or five heaven-level scattered cultivators said.
They were all old men in their seventies and eighties.
Lin Ningyu had more contact with them, and did not give Li Ming the opportunity to contact him alone, so Li Ming naturally had no way to launch an offensive against Lin Ningyu.
"Thank you!" Lin Ning thanked him.
However, she felt that it was inconvenient for her to stay with these old men all the time.
Lin Ningyu looked around the entire backyard.
When his gaze swept to Mu Yan, Lin Ningyu's eyes lit up slightly.
If you find a young man to be your shield...... Perhaps, Li Ming will retreat from the difficulty!
"I'm sorry!"
Lin Ningyu made up her mind.
"After this mission, I'll give you some compensation!" Lin Ningyu decided that at the critical moment, he could use Mu Yan as a shield.
"Hahahaha, Miss Ningyu, I've kept you waiting!"
It was when Lin Ningyu was thinking about these things in her heart that a loud laugh came.
Shout!
In the backyard of this Nanfeng Restaurant, a figure flew quickly.
It was a man who looked to be in his thirties, of medium build, and of decent appearance, with a pair of eyes that were extremely deep and radiant. Compared to his appearance, this man is not very outstanding, but as long as his eyes sweep the faces of some women, I am afraid that these women will immediately be excited.
This man is Li Ming.
He looked like he was thirty years old, but his actual age was already over fifty.
First, the star soul powerhouse has a long lifespan, and fifty or sixty years old is not old.
In the two, Li Ming attaches great importance to his appearance, and often spends huge sums of money to buy some pills to maintain his appearance.
So, he still looks quite young.
"Ning Yu has seen Senior Li, thank you Senior Li for your help and join my Lin family's medicine collection team. Ning Yu thanked the seniors on behalf of his father, if he had time, the seniors could come to my Lin family, and I believe that my father would definitely entertain the seniors well. Lin Ningyu saluted Li Ming and called Li Ming "senior".
Whether it is age or cultivation, Li Ming is enough to be Lin Ningyu's predecessor.
It is very reasonable to say that Li Ming is a master of Lin Ningyu's father's generation.
Li Ming's face stiffened slightly.
The reason why he joined the Lin family's medicine collection team is very simple!
I just want to fight Lin Ningyu's idea!
Li Ming has seen a lot of ordinary so-called stunning women, but like Lin Ningyu, a young lady from a big family with extremely high talent and an extremely noble identity, Li Ming has never been touched.
Previously, Li Ming had no chance!
And now, Lin Ningyu is responsible for leading the Lin family's medicine collection team into the Huanggu Mountain Range to collect medicine, and needs to be escorted by the Six Heavenly Powerhouses, and Li Ming keenly captured this opportunity.
He thought that with his strength and charm, it should not be difficult to attract a little girl who is currently only a triple heaven cultivator.
But Li Mingwan didn't expect that as soon as he arrived, Lin Ningyu actually called himself a "senior".
It is clear that it is a refusal!
It was unfavorable to be out of school, which made Li Ming's face a little unpleasant.
"Hahaha, Miss Ning Yu laughed, I have admired Senior Lin for a long time, in front of Senior Lin, I, Li Ming, am just a junior, if I go to Lin Mansion as a guest, where do I dare to let Senior Lin entertain. If Miss Ning Yu entertained, it might be more natural. Hahaha......"
Li Ming snorted and said in his mouth.
"Now that Senior Li Ming has arrived, let's set off immediately!"
Lin Ningyu didn't say anything and announced the departure.
"Brother Li, this is the 10,000 taels of golden tickets presented by my Lin family, and I hope Brother Li will accept it with a smile!"
Lin Tao stepped forward and gave Li Ming 10,000 taels of golden tickets first.
"Why be polite?"
Li Ming smiled lightly.
"No merit, since the Lin family is so polite, I should also protect Miss Ning Yu well, so that Miss Ning Yu will not be damaged in the process of collecting medicine. ”
Putting away the golden ticket, Li Ming approached Lin Ningyu directly.
followed Lin Ningyu's side.
Lin Tao frowned slightly.
He was also silent, following closely behind Lin Ningyu.
This time, they entered the Aragu Mountain Range to collect medicine, and everyone did not ride any mounts. In the mountains and forests, there is no advantage in the speed of ordinary mounts, besides, the size of the mounts is too large, it is not easy to hide, and it is easy to attract the attention of powerful demon beasts.
Li Ming followed behind Lin Ningyu, and obviously felt that Lin Ningyu's expression was slightly unhappy, and Lin Tao looked like he was facing a great enemy, guarding Li Ming all the time.
"Huh!"
"The little girl was a little wary at first, but it's normal!"
"When you enter the Huanggu Mountain Range, especially after encountering danger, I will rescue you a few times, and then say some gentle words to comfort and comfort the frightened Lin Ningyu, this little girl will definitely fall in love with me!" Li Ming snorted coldly in his heart, and such a thought popped up in his mind.
Li Ming said to Lin Ning, it can be said that he is determined to win!
Lin Ningyu herself is an extremely talented existence among the young women of South Wind City, and the star soul in her body is said to be an ice phoenix, at least a medium divine beast level.
There are even rumors that the ice phoenix in Lin Ningyu's body is not an ordinary ice phoenix, but a mutated ice phoenix, and it is still unknown how far it can grow in the future, and it is conservatively estimated that it is also a medium divine beast, and it may even reach the level of a superior divine beast, or even a top-level divine beast.
The Lin family is the first wealthy family in the southeast province!
If he can capture Lin Ningyu's heart, there are too many benefits for Li Ming!
"Lin Ningyu is a little girl after all!"
"Easy to coax. ”
"It's that Lin Tao, who is a little troublesome. ”
"Wait until you enter the Ancient Mountain Range, find an opportunity to get rid of this trouble!"
"You don't need to let him die, you just need to let him be injured and send someone to send him back to Southwind City. Between me and Lin Ningyu, there is no more obstacles!"
Li Ming said secretly in his heart.
Everyone left the South Wind Restaurant, left the South Wind City, and headed west into the Wild Ancient Mountains.
Lin Ningyu, Lin Tao, and Li Ming are at the forefront.
The loose cultivation recruited by Mu Yan and the other Lin families was in the central position.
In the rear is the Lin family's guards.
Mu Yan walked behind Lin Ningyu and the others, and his eyes casually glanced at Li Ming.
"This Li Ming seems to really want to fight Lin Ningyu's idea. ”
"Hopefully, in the course of this mission, he will not go too far out of place. ”
"Otherwise, I don't mind helping Lin Ningyu and taking action to get rid of him!"
In Mu Yan's heart, there was a faint killing intent rising.
Although Li Ming has reached the Star Soul Six Heavens realm, which is extraordinary, his strength is still much inferior to Mu Yuelong, the veteran powerhouse who has awakened the Star Soul of the Negative Yue Demon Dragon. Against Mu Yuelong, Mu Yan didn't have much chance of winning, but when it came to dealing with Li Ming, Mu Yan was still a little sure.
Lin Ningyu once helped Mu Yan when she needed money to buy the Heart of the Silver Moon the most, and gave Mu Yan all her belongings.
Although Mu Yan bid for the Heart of the Silver Moon, the tens of thousands of golden tickets did not play a key role, but for Lin Ningyu, Mu Yan is also grateful.
It's nothing to help her solve a problem.
Everyone left Southwind City, but in a moment, they had already reached the front of the Desolate Ancient Mountain Range.
"You, you guys, go ahead and be smart!"
Li Ming was anti-guest, commanded several quadruple heavens to scatter and cultivate, and opened the way to the front.
Among them, there is Mu Yan.
After entering the Huanggu Mountain Range, Lin Ningyu naturally couldn't walk in the forefront, generally the hired scattered cultivators walked in the front to open the way, Lin Ningyu and other important people who were protected walked in the middle, and the Lin family guards were in the rear.
"That kid is a little young!"
"Those old guys, there's no threat to me!"
"But that kid might be one of my competitors!"
Li Ming commanded Mu Yan to open the way to the front, not casually.
Instead, he directly calculated Mu Yan!
In Li Ming's view, in this mission, his main goal is to capture Lin Ningyu's heart, and all obstacles must be removed. Lin Tao needed to be swept away, and Mu Yan, because he was too young, seemed to have the strength of the Four Heavens before he was twenty years old, and his talent was extremely high. Maybe...... will be a strong competitor to him Li Ming.
So, it must be swept away too!
Let him go ahead and open the way!
Open the way ahead, and you will encounter powerful monsters as soon as possible.
For example, those old men can still deal with the sudden attack of powerful demon beasts. And a young man like Mu Yan, in Li Ming's opinion, was attacked by a powerful demon beast, and he immediately had to hurry. Even being seriously injured or even killed by a powerful demon beast is extremely likely.
Li Ming assigned the person who opened the way ahead, and Mu Yan was one.
There are three more people.
All of them are middle-aged people in their forties.
Compared with the old people in the team, they are not experienced enough. If Mu Yan encounters danger, it will be difficult for them to rescue them in the first place.
It is to kill Mu Yan!
"Let me get out of the way?"
"Even if you don't speak, I'll take the initiative to ask!"
For Li Ming to let him open the way, Mu Yan did not reject it.
I joined the medicine collection team by myself, not to enter the swamp area safely and securely, looking for oolong wood.
Also for fighting!
Hone yourself in battle.
And to open the way ahead, to be able to encounter demon beasts for the first time, for the current "war-loving maniac" like Mu Yan, it is naturally best to encounter demon beasts for the first time.
"Speed up, in the most marginal area of the Desolate Ancient Mountain Range, there will be no top-grade Yin attribute medicinal materials at all, I have a map of the marginal area of the Desolate Ancient Mountain Range here, which marks a few swamps, go to the first swamp first!" Just after Mu Yan and the others went to the front to open the way, behind, Lin Ningyu's voice came.
Shout!
Lin Ningyu directly threw over a map of animal skins.
Click!
Mu Yan moved with one hand and held it in his hand.
After a few casual glances, Mu Yan immediately determined the route.
"Northwest direction!"
"Follow me!"
Moving quickly, Mu Yan rushed out first.
"Good boy, the momentum is not small, but unfortunately, the faster you rush, the more miserable you will die!" Li Ming in the rear showed an imperceptible cruel smile on his face.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The crowd marched at a rapid pace.
Lin Ningyu, who had the worst strength in the medicine collection team, also had the Star Soul Triple Heaven Cultivation, his body was extremely sensitive, and his speed was not slow, under the leadership of Mu Yan, but in the blink of an eye, he traveled a distance of thirty or forty miles. The medicine collection team went deep into the Ancient Mountains for thirty or forty miles, and had already begun to encounter some demon beasts.
Roar, roar, roar!
Some second-level demon beasts saw the medicine collection team rushing from a distance, and they all looked panicked, roared a few times and fled quickly.
Sixty miles...... Seventy miles...... Eighty miles......
One hundred miles!
In the afternoon, Mu Yan and the others went deep into the Huanggu Mountain Range for a distance of three hundred miles.
Roar!
The medicine collection team has already encountered some third-level demon beasts, and even occasionally encounters fourth-level demon beasts.
However, even if it was a fourth-level demon beast, when he saw the vast array of dozens of people coming from the medicine collection team, all of them were powerhouses above the fourfold heaven level, their faces immediately changed drastically, and they fled in fear.
"There are too many strong people in the medicine collection team, and they have too much deterrent power against demon beasts. Acting with the herb picking team, I have no chance to fight with the demon **. Mu Yan frowned slightly.
"I'll go first, five miles away!"
"You guys come with you!" Mu Yan threw the map in his hand to a middle-aged man from the Quadruple Heavens behind him, and he suddenly sped up, reaching hundreds of meters away in an instant.
Mu Yan's speed was extremely fast, and he disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"This kid, want to be a hero?"
"Hmph, I don't know how thick the sky is, at most two days, you will turn into a corpse!"
Li Ming snorted coldly in the rear.
Lin Ningyu's face also showed a hint of worry.
In her opinion, Mu Yan is probably at the bottom of the team in terms of experience and strength.
Rushing to the forefront is obviously extremely dangerous.
Boom! Boom!
Roar!
And just as Li Ming, Lin Ningyu and the others were thinking like this, suddenly, there was a loud noise in front of them, mixed with the roar of demon beasts.
"There was a fight?" Lin Ningyu frowned.
"Quick, go to the rescue!" she cried out.
Whoa!
Everyone immediately quickened their pace, but in only twenty or thirty seconds, they reached the place where the explosion was heard.
"What?"
When I arrived here, I saw the scene in front of me, and everyone in the medicine collection team was suddenly shocked and petrified.
But I saw a huge wild boar demon beast lying flat on the ground at the fourth level, one person stepped on the body of the wild boar demon beast, cut open the lower abdomen of the wild boar with a sharp blade, and quickly took out a demon pill. This person who killed the wild boar and collected the inner dan was Mu Yan!
