Under Zhou Jian's narration, Ling Yun finally understood the whole story.

After he was captured by the Dry Evil, the Martial Academy and the City Lord's Mansion sent many people to search, but there has been no news. Later, because of the matter of the spirit beast, his "death news" was confirmed, and the search was much less, and there were only a few people left, just for show.

After this incident, the most affected was Tang Tianxiao, not only was he suppressed by Mu Lian and others in the martial arts academy, but this courtyard was often attacked by some inexplicable attacks, and over time, the formation failed, Tang Tianxiao didn't dare to live anymore, so he stayed in the martial arts academy and worked hard to improve his strength.

However, cultivation requires too many resources, and relying only on the provision of the Martial Academy, it can't catch up with the speed of other people at all, so Tang Tianxiao frantically took on some tasks, this time he just went out and hasn't come back yet.

"I haven't come back after going out for so long, do you know what mission I've taken?" Ling Yun asked.

"It is said that it is to catch a spirit beast, the third-order spirit beast Cold Moon Python. Zhou Jian said.

"Cold Moon Python?" Ling Yun frowned slightly.

In half a year, with Tang Tianxiao's diligence, his strength must have improved a lot, and with the Qingyue Sword in his hand, it is not difficult to deal with a third-order spirit beast. But the problem is that the Cold Moon Python is mostly in the depths of the mountain range, and once it fights, it will definitely attract the attention of other spirit beasts, and a group of spirit beasts will besiege it, even if it is a spiritual monk, it will be difficult to resist.

Seeming to see Ling Yun's doubts, Zhou Jian explained: "The task is indeed very dangerous, but the publisher gives a very high reward, a full one million silver taels, and there are no other requirements, if you are lucky, you can catch a young snake, or the corpse of the Cold Moon Python, you can also complete the task." ”

"It's really tempting, but a cold moon python is not worth a million silver taels. Ling Yun's expression was slightly condensed, he had no evidence, but it was obvious that this task was a little strange, and he asked again: "Where is the Cold Moon Python near here?"

"Out of the West City Gate, to the Cloud Realm Mountain Range, there is a red python valley inside. I don't know if there is a cold moon python, but there are a lot of spirit pythons in it, if I were Tang Gongzi, I would probably go there first. Zhou Jian said.

"Gongzi Zhou, please help me entertain Baiyou Gongzi and seniors, and I'll go to the Red Python Valley to have a look. Ling Yun said, he believed that Tang Tianxiao would not be reckless, but he was afraid that someone would deliberately set up a situation for this task.

"Let's go too, the location of the Red Python Valley is not easy to find, just to show Ling Gongzi a way. Zhou Jian said.

Bai Youqian also spoke: "Anyway, there is nothing to do here, so together with Ling Gongzi, maybe I can help." ”

"Let's go, then. Daoist Wu Xie was more direct, and he didn't discuss it with Ling Yun at all, so he walked out.

Ling Yun was a little helpless, but his heart was warm, and with a few people to help, it was naturally better.

Out of the West City Gate, Ling Yun took out the Flying Spirit Treasure, and did not skimp on the Spirit Stone, directly controlled it to the maximum speed, and flew towards the Cloud Realm Mountain Range with everyone.

galloped all the way, but fortunately there was no obstacle, and it only took more than half an hour to reach the edge of the Cloud Realm Mountain Range.

The Cloud Realm Mountain Range stretches for thousands of miles, and there are countless spirit beasts, although Ling Yun is in a hurry, he doesn't dare to be too ostentatious, he puts away the flying spirit treasure, and the group shuttles through the jungle and moves towards the Red Python Valley.

Everyone used their own flying techniques, and instantly saw the high and low, the most relaxed was Wu Xie Daochang, who did not use any spiritual treasure assistance, nor did he have too strong spiritual power fluctuations, and he looked chic and leisurely, as if he was still wandering around Linhai City.

Bai Youqian and Zhou Jian both stepped on the flying sword, in comparison, Zhou Jian seemed to be more difficult, but it also surprised Ling Yun very much, in the past half a year, Zhou Jian has obviously worked very hard, and his strength has improved a lot.

Zhou Jian was also shocked, originally he came over, just because he was worried that Ling Yun would not be able to cope with it, but at this time, Ling Yun's figure flashed, his escape technique was wonderful, and his speed was not slower than him.

The sky gradually darkened, there were a lot of spirit beasts that haunted at night, and Ling Yun didn't want everyone to take risks, so he found a cliff cave, laid out the formation, and everyone rested.

The next day, I walked cautiously all the way, and when it was almost noon, I finally arrived at the Red Python Valley.

The Red Python Valley is a sinkhole terrain, surrounded by steep mountain cliffs, and in the middle is a dense jungle, shrouded in clouds and mist, making it difficult to see the end.

At the bottom of the valley, everyone gathered their breath and slowly moved towards the depths.

The snake's sense of smell is extremely keen, especially in this Red Python Valley, where there are pythons everywhere, and Ling Yun and the others don't want to startle the snake and attract siege.

Those seemingly harmless clouds and mist are miasma that has accumulated over time, once absorbed too much, it is not only harmful to the body, but also makes people lose their minds.

While everyone was resting, Ling Yun turned around, and when he came back, he had an extra handful of flowers and plants in his hand.

"Young Master Ling, what are these?" Zhou Jian asked curiously after seeing it.

"It's just an ordinary elixir, but when combined, it's just enough to alleviate the miasma. Ling Yun said, and then crushed the herb with his spiritual power and divided it into five equal parts.

Zhou Jian took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and said with some uncertainty: "How to do this?"

"Yes, I have wronged you. Ling Yun apologized, the three of them were all here to help, and it was indeed a little uneasy to follow him to suffer this kind of burden.

Bai Youqian was refreshing, and took it in civilian clothes, he knew very well that in such a dangerous place, one more state, one more protection.

Sure enough, not long after everyone ate these flowers and plants, they felt that the impact of the miasma was much smaller, and with the mediation of their physical functions, they began to slowly adapt.

After walking for a long time, the four of them had reached the depths of the valley, and there was still no trace of Tang Tianxiao, and the surrounding environment was getting worse and worse, and there were more and more pythons, so everyone could only be more careful.

"There seem to be traces of a fight over there!" Bai Youqian seemed to notice something, pointing not far away.

Looking down, the trees there are crooked, quite unusual. Everyone hurriedly rushed over, on the trunk of the tree, on the ground, there were sword marks everywhere, and the spiritual power in the air was chaotic, as if a big war had been experienced.

"The spiritual power has not completely dispersed, it should have happened in the past two days. After feeling it, Ling Yun said.

"More than one person. Bai Youqian said that through observation, he also got some information.

"Is there really someone setting up a bureau?" Zhou Jian couldn't believe it.

For tasks posted in the Rinkai Martial Academy, the reward needs to be paid to the Rinkai Martial Arts Academy first, and this reward will not be returned regardless of whether someone completes it or not. spent a million, just to lure Tang Tianxiao here, and the price is not small.

Wu Jiedao, who had not spoken, glanced around, suddenly turned his hand over, and took out a compass, the surface of which was engraved with the heavenly stems and earth branches, the five elements of the eight trigrams, and the middle was a yin and yang pointer. Wu Xie Dao was a little brighter, and the compass suddenly slipped around, and when the pointer stopped, it pointed to the depths of the woods.

"This way. Wu Xie said, and then led the way in front and walked deep into the woods.

......

In the gloomy cave, Tang Tianxiao sat on the ground, lying against the stone wall.

He had been on the run for a few days, with little time to rest, and if he stopped, the men would quickly catch up. At this time, he was exhausted, his whole body was sore, and his face was even more painful.

This time, he admitted that he was tempted, but he had no way, no resources, and he would be thrown off more by others. The only thing he didn't expect was that there would be so many black hands behind him this time, the Mu family, the Sea Dragon Gang, and even the Tang family.

Fortunately, the terrain of the Red Python Valley is complex, full of caves and pits, coupled with the interference of miasma and pythons, which gave him the opportunity to fight his way out of the encirclement many times and escape from death.

However, even if he escaped, his condition was not very good, not only was he seriously injured, but he was also poisoned by the snake, coupled with the erosion of miasma, he no longer had much combat power.

"The cave over there, you two go and search it, and send a signal if there is a situation. ”

Outside the cave, a voice came, Tang Tianxiao's body twitched, and he quickly got up, looking for a dark place, with Qingyue Sword behind his back, staring at the entrance.

Soon, two figures broke in, with their bears on their backs and their faces full of anger.

It's a member of the Sea Dragons. Tang Tianxiao's eyes condensed slightly, these bandits lived a life of licking blood from the knife edge, they were the least afraid of death, once they started to move, they were even more fierce than those guards, and they were the most difficult.

"Huh"

When the two approached, Tang Tianxiao made an instant move, and the sword light flashed, directly passing through the neck of one person.

"Tang Tian smiled!"

The other was shocked, and when he saw the tragic death of his companion, he didn't dare to make a move, and hurriedly fled outside the cave.

Tang Tianxiao naturally wouldn't let it go, if this person resisted head-on, he wouldn't be able to do it, so he chose to run away, and the door behind him was wide open, but it gave him a chance. As soon as the Qingyue Sword was thrown, it turned into a streamer and chased after it, directly sinking into the back and piercing through the chest.

In the blink of an eye, the two were killed, but Tang Tianxiao was not the slightest happy, withdrew the Qingyue Sword, and hurriedly ran towards the entrance of the cave. Although these two people did not send a signal, the spiritual power fluctuations could not be hidden, and this place had been exposed.

"Tang Gongzi, where are you going!"

Outside the cave, a bald middle-aged man blocked the way, with a double-plate axe in his hand, and his face was fierce, but it was Long Kui, the leader of the Sea Dragon Gang, who was responsible for chasing Tang Tianxiao this time.

Seeing Long Kui, Tang Tianxiao was a little helpless, and laughed at himself: "Actually let the master at the peak of the Returning Spirit Realm personally take action, it really looks up to me." ”

"Someone doesn't want you to leave the Red Python Valley alive, if you want to blame it, blame yourself for your bad life. Long Kui said. For Tang Tianxiao, he still admires it, so many people chased and killed, and they actually escaped for so long, which is not something that ordinary people can do.

At this time, everyone came around, the Mu family led the team by Mu Tao, and there was only one person in the Tang family, who was the old servant beside Tang Tianao.

The old servant didn't make a move, he came here to be just responsible for witnessing. Although the entire plan was planned by Tang Tianao, Tang Tianxiao was a member of the Tang family after all, Tang Tianao couldn't make a direct move, and he couldn't, even if the possibility of people here saying it was very small.

"Dragon Gang Master, what are you waiting for! Kill this kid early, and we should leave this hellish place as soon as possible. Mu Tao on the side urged. In this Red Python Valley, he lost a lot of his subordinates, partly because of Tang Tianxiao, and more because of the environment of the Red Python Valley.

Hearing Mu Tao's urging, Long Kui's face was displeased, but the old servant was present, he didn't say anything, and waved his hand: "Do it!"

Hearing this, those mountain bandits immediately shouted and killed Tang Tianxiao, and Mu Tao's subordinates also took action, on the other hand, Mu Tao and Long Kui did not rush to make a move.

Although Tang Tianxiao was already at the end of the crossbow, both of them knew the origin of the Qingyue Sword, and they were worried that Tang Tianxiao would have any killing moves, so they didn't rush to make a move, wanting to make his subordinates consume it again.

"It's good to come!"

Even if he didn't have much combat power, Tang Tianxiao still didn't flinch, roared, swung the Qingyue Sword, and slaughtered into the crowd. Limited to resources, he has not been able to increase much in the spiritual power realm in the past six months, but he has received many tasks, has very rich actual combat experience, and his swordsmanship has improved by leaps and bounds, and he is not afraid of battles, let alone many people.

The battle was stalemate for a long time, and a group of people dealt with one for a long time, but they failed to take it for a long time, but in the melee, they were repeatedly injured by mistake, and Mu Tao and Long Kui lost a lot of their men. The two of them were not in a hurry, they looked at the battlefield calmly, waiting for Tang Tianxiao's spiritual power to run out.

After another moment, the old servant, who had not spoken, suddenly turned his head to look into the distance, his eyes narrowed slightly, and said, "Someone is coming, do it quickly!"

Hearing this, Long Kui and Mu Tao were both stunned, but then realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly shot and killed Tang Tianxiao. Long Kui wielded a double-plate axe, and Mu Tao attacked with a pair of fiery fists, directly hitting Tang Tianxiao's vital point.
