Chapter 159: Black Wind Ridge
The next day, early in the morning.
Zhou Qing and Shen Rong left the residence, and they came to the square in front of the Tianzong Academy.
There were already five people waiting in the square, and among them, there were two young men with gloomy faces, and they were the old students who followed Zhou Qing to complete the task this time.
"Hmph, you're finally here, do you know how long we've been waiting!" The young man on the left, seeing Zhou Qing and Shen Rong coming, snorted coldly and said unhappily.
Zhou Qing glanced at the man lightly, his gaze condensed slightly.
From Dong Ze, Zhou Qing knew that this person's name was Zhu Jun, the strength of the Purple Mansion Realm, and he was the person of the third prince Yang Tianzhao.
The young man beside Zhu Jun had a hint of curvature at the corner of his lips, and he glanced at Zhou Qing and Shen Rong coldly, but he didn't speak.
That young man's name was Fan Yunhao, he was also in the Purple Mansion Realm, and he was the person of Yang Shengfei, the fifth prince.
Zhou Qing was also aware of Fan Yunhao's cold gaze, but he didn't take Zhu Jun and Fan Yunhao in his eyes.
After Zhou Qing reached the ninth level of the Open Pulse Realm, he urged the Thunder Palm, and he was able to fight with the seven powerhouses of the Purple Mansion Realm.
If the two brothers, Yang Tianzhao and Yang Shengfei, thought that they would be able to deal with Zhou Qing by sending these two pieces of garbage, then they were too naΓ―ve.
However, although Zhou Qing's own strength has risen sharply now, he does not have the slightest carelessness.
After all, Yang Tianzhao knew that beside Zhou Qing, there was a Linggang Realm powerhouse like Shi Heilong, and if Yang Tianzhao really wanted to deal with him, there must be other means.
And the killing move hidden in the shadows is what Zhou Qing really has to be careful about.
For some reason, Zhou Qing faintly felt that this time he would encounter a big crisis in his freshman mission.
The corner of Zhou Qing's eyes glanced in a certain direction behind him, and the stone black dragon was hiding there, so Zhou Qing felt a little at ease.
"It's getting late, it's time for us to go. Fan Yunhao spoke, he turned over on the horse, threw a whip on the horse's back, and took the lead in galloping out.
Zhou Qing looked at the departing figure of Fan Yunhao and the others, and said in a deep voice: "Rong'er, be careful next, I always feel that there will be danger in this freshman mission." β
"Hmm!" Shen Rong nodded heavily.
When Zhou Qing went through three months of penance, Shen Rong did not let go of her own cultivation, and now, she has reached the strength of the Purple Mansion Realm.
Although in terms of real combat power, Shen Rong cannot be compared with Zhou Qing, but Shen Rong is much stronger than a martial artist of the same level.
Shen Rong understood that from the moment they left the Heavenly Sect Academy, some enemies who had wanted to make a move against Zhou Qing would also really take action, and she would naturally not relax her vigilance.
Zhou Qing and Shen Rong rode their horses and galloped, and they followed closely behind Fan Yunhao and the others.
This time, the place where Zhou Qing and the others are going is called Heifeng Ridge, and it is said that there is a village called Heifeng Village, where hundreds of bandits have gathered, and over the years, they have done a lot of evil in the nearby city.
The Black Wind Ridge was thousands of miles away from the Imperial Capital, and Zhou Qing and the others kept hurrying for days, and it was only after ten days that they arrived at the nearest city to the Black Wind Ridge, Lianyun City.
In Lianyun City, an inn, after Zhou Qing and the others simply ate something, they all returned to their rooms to rest.
This time, although the freshman task had to be completed by Zhou Qing and Shen Rong and other five freshmen, the final dominance was in the hands of Zhu Jun and Fan Yunhao.
After discussion between the two, they decided to let Zhou Qing and the five of them go to Heifeng Ridge tomorrow to exterminate the gang of bandits.
After several days of hurrying, the three freshmen were very tired.
They knew that they only had one night to rest, and when the three of them returned to their rooms, they fell asleep.
In the room, Zhou Qing sat at the table, with a deep solemn look between his eyebrows.
"What kind of arrangement did Yang Tianzhao and Yang Shengfei have? From the imperial capital to Lianyun City, during this period, we have been rushing for days, although we are a little tired, but we have not encountered any danger. β
"I originally thought that Yang Tianzhao and Yang Shengfei's people would do something to me on the road, but it seemed very calm along the way. β
"In that case, I have to be careful when I exterminate the Black Wind Village tomorrow, maybe the conspiracy of the two will be revealed at that time. β
Zhou Qing shook his head, throwing away the many thoughts in his heart, he sat down on the bed and entered the cultivation.
Now, between heaven and earth, the thin spiritual power of heaven and earth, although it is not enough for Zhou Qing to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm, but Zhou Qing was reborn in a lifetime, and he felt that he was different from the changes in his previous life.
In this kind of hard cultivation, Zhou Qing is trying to find the place in his body that is different from his previous life, perhaps, when he finds those special places, his strength can be several times stronger than that of his previous life.
Nothing was said all night.
On the second day, under the leadership of Zhu Jun and Fan Yunhao, Zhou Qing and the others entered an endless mountain range outside Lianyun City.
In the vast mountains and forests, there are insects and birds from time to time.
The three freshmen who walked with Zhou Qing, they obviously hadn't experienced much fighting, and the three of them didn't have a sense of crisis in this mountain forest.
They teased each other from time to time, and between their words, they seemed very relaxed.
Zhou Qing glanced at the three of them lightly, shook his head helplessly, and said to himself: "These three people, I'm afraid they won't get out of this mountain forest alive!"
From the moment he entered this mountain forest, Zhou Qing faintly felt a hint of crisis.
He could sense that there was real danger ahead.
And the three freshmen were assigned to the same group as Zhou Qing to carry out the task, and they could only say that their lives were not good, and they couldn't blame others.
Once there is a crisis, when the time comes, Zhou Qing is afraid that he will not be able to protect himself, let alone take care of the three people, and at this moment, the three teenagers do not know that their fate has already been decided.
Moving all the way, Zhou Qing and the others walked for about thirty miles, a huge canyon appeared in front of them, and at the end of that canyon, a mountain peak that reached into the sky could be faintly seen.
Perhaps because of the existence of the canyon in front of you, a howling hurricane slowly took shape in this area, and then the wind and waves rolled out and rushed directly into the peak at the end of the canyon.
The countless plants and trees on the mountain peak, under the blowing of the strong wind, are all broken at the waist, and the whole mountain is bleak, and that is where the Black Wind Ridge is located.
Zhou Qing's eyes looked along the Black Wind Ridge, his gaze stayed at the top of the Black Wind Ridge, his gaze was slightly condensed, on the top of the mountain, a village was lying there like a creeping giant.
"Whirring ......"
Amid the howling of the wind, there was a sudden burst of horns.
Then, Zhou Qing was shocked to see that in the Black Wind Village, figures appeared on the wall.
Then, when Zhou Qing looked up and looked around, he saw that on the top of the cliffs on both sides of the canyon, countless figures suddenly gathered.
At this moment, Zhou Qing finally understood that they had been tricked.
