Chapter 797: The Heart of Man is Sinister (1st Update)
Yunzhou, Guiwu Continent.
Under the leadership of Guiyi Villa, after the prelude to the battle for the city lord began, the entire continent fell into a level of madness, and countless warriors were no longer silent, and they broke out with amazing momentum and emerged.
Undoubtedly, the battle for the city lord once every five years is not only the supreme glory of seizing power and becoming a powerful party, but also the best way to make a name for yourself.
Some people want to compete for the position of city lord, while others just want to test the results of their cultivation over the years, after all, there is no fairer battle than the battle for the city lord.
Of course, this also includes the chaotic battle in Quang Nam City.
In the cruel world of warriors, where is there absolute fairness? Even if it is a chaotic battle of twenty people, it is already a great compromise, you must know that most of the dangers encountered by warriors outside are lore kills, where can it be so gentle?
Under the attention of everyone and the inquiries of the good deeds, the information of the warriors who entered the second round of Guangnan City was also publicized by Chongxiaolou.
Among the ten people this time, three were in the early stage of the Martial Emperor, and seven were at the peak of the Martial Emperor.
This news greatly surprised everyone, and some late warriors were even more shocked, and after a few disdainful sarcasm complaints, they were refuted.
"The frog at the bottom of the well!"
"Stupid words, superficial and ridiculous!"
"Isn't the chaotic battle of that day more dangerous than the ordinary competition?"
Even the owner of the wine shop and teahouse heard this, and he was furious on the spot, and directly blasted people out, and even the place where the fence was hooked was not treated by anyone, and he sat alone on a noisy cold stool, which is the only one in the world.
It's not that these people are righteous and upright, but that the mercenary group they live in Quang Nam City can be regarded as the people of the city and are protected by it.
They themselves can say that the city lord is biased and unsatisfactory, but outsiders say irresponsible things, but it is not good.
Because the ridicule of outsiders is not only talking about the water of the city lord, but also belittling their level and denying their strength, how can they endure it? How can they stand idly by?
In this martial continent, there is not only friction and competition between loose cultivators and mercenary groups, especially the city lords of these hundred cities, but also a competitive relationship with each other.
Supporting the city lord in front of outsiders is also supporting himself, maybe the warrior will stand by and watch what happens to others, but when it comes to his own interests, it is absolutely impossible, but it can be regarded as human nature.
But then again, no matter how hard they refute and how fierce they resist, the realm of these ten people sounds really embarrassing.
Even such a rebuttal, instead of allowing people to have a deep understanding, makes people feel a bit strong and deliberately covers up the ugliness.
It's really darker and darker, and the more ambiguous it is, the more chaotic it becomes.
Since they can't say clearly, everyone simply doesn't bother to argue, anyway, they will go to see what the quality and strength will be, and they will know with their own eyes what the quality and strength are.
As the saying goes, facts speak louder than words.
These ten people, among the many martial artists, the hottest ones are naturally Lu Qing, who has not yet made a move, and Jun Yi, who has the lowest realm, which really has some opposing and extreme meanings, which makes people look forward to it.
Similarly, Jian Yuenian and Tang Tianhuai, who were in the early stage realm of the Martial Emperor, were also the object of discussion, but compared to the other six martial artists at the peak realm of the Martial Emperor, the fiery level was at the bottom.
This kind of strange situation has never appeared in the battle for the city lord in the past years.
"Tsk, this time the battle for the city lord is really a bit of a surprise. ”
"Xiang Fengshuo and Yan Pei'an, the two sworn enemies, have been silent and disappeared for several years, and they thought they had died somewhere, but they didn't expect to wait for this day. ”
"It is said that Zhuo Yu and Ning Ran are actually a Taoist couple. ”
Hearing this, a warrior looked at it in surprise: "Is this news really fake? Their family occupies two positions, and it seems that the plan is not small." ”
"It looks like the competition will be in three days
, maybe it's a team battle?"
When a warrior heard this, his face was disappointed, although the group battle was more ornamental than the chaotic battle, the danger level was greatly reduced, and there was a lot less excitement full of dangers.
"It's not that serious, I think they can unite, right?"
"Lu Qing and Tang Tianhuai are in the same mercenary group, but with their arrogance, they naturally will not cooperate with Jian Yuenian, who is also in the early stage of the Martial Emperor's realm. ”
"Xiang Fengshuo and Yan Pei'an are already opposites, a battle is indispensable, Chu Feng is a lone casual cultivator, maybe he will be co-opted, you say, is it very likely that he will cooperate with Beili?"
As soon as these words came out, the warriors in the wine shop couldn't help but be silent for a while, but some warriors smiled coldly: "Hey, your news is not well-informed enough." ”
"Oh? ”
Hearing this, the eyes of the warrior in Chinese clothes lit up, and he waved his hand when he got up, and said quite arrogantly: "Xiao Er, everyone's wine this time is counted in my account." ”
"Haha, thank you for this brother. ”
When the martial artist heard this, he hurriedly asked Xiao Er to put on a few jars of elixir spirit liquid that he was usually reluctant to drink, first poured a sip hard, and then smashed his mouth before saying: "Actually, it's also simple, let me ask you, why is Chu Feng a loose cultivator?"
"That's because he is withdrawn by nature and doesn't like to communicate with people, so that he has few friends on weekdays, so how can he ask for an alliance with others in a chaotic war?"
The warrior looked at everyone proudly, took their thoughtful expressions into his eyes, patted his chest again, and said, "For the sake of this brother's grandeur, I will say another secret." ”
"Hehe, Lei Nian who was defeated by Jun Yi, everyone should know about it, right?"
Hearing this, everyone nodded hurriedly, and they all looked at it curiously, only to see the martial artist smile meaningfully and lightly: "That Beili and Lei Nian are best friends." ”
"Isn't that going to be a battle with Jun Yi?"
Some martial artists were slightly stunned, couldn't help frowning, and said with some disappointment: "Lei Nian in the early realm of the Martial Emperor can't beat Jun Yi, how can Bei Li, who is at the peak of the Martial Emperor, be an opponent?"
"You don't know about that, do you?"
The man looked around at everyone with deep eyes, his face was full of mystery, and said: "Lei Nian has survived dozens of rounds in the first battle, and his combat power can be called the best in the same level, but he is not Beili's opponent. ”
"When he fights with Jun Yi, it must be a dragon fight, you can see. ”
"Hi, bet bet bet. ”
"I've taken a look at everything I've walked by!"
"The popular candidate for the battle for the city lord, I started betting today, high odds, guaranteed validity, getting rich overnight is just around the corner, what are you waiting for?"
"Life is to dare to gamble, dare to fight, dare to fight, fight the king to become the king, grit your teeth and turn the cold winter into the spring breeze, and then walk on the peak of life. ”
As soon as the words fell, everyone saw a commotion not far away, and there was no more than an uproar, and there was a shouting and cheering leisurely, which made everyone's eyes light up and rushed out together.
"Count me in, and I'll crush Lu Qing. ”
"Lu Qing, Lu Qing, make sure you don't lose money, just keep it and it's over. ”
"I, I'm pressing..."
Suddenly, in the lively crowd, there was a stunned sound, low and loveless, but it made the excited expressions of these warriors suddenly stagnate, and they all looked sideways.
That look, that gaze, is like looking at a fool, but there are also bystanders whose eyes flicker, and there is a little indescribable meaning in their eyes.
"This brother, it's not me talking about you, pressing Lu Qing is definitely nine out of ten, and you earn a little, but at least you don't lose money. ”
"Heh..."
But the martial artist smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed: "It doesn't matter, anyway, if I can't get my beloved, I don't want to live anymore, just a few thousand spirit crystals, what's the point? ”
"Brother, don't sigh, you are so depressed. ”
in the crowd
Squeezed out a person, who was carrying a long sword, with a dignified appearance, and said with a frown: "Young people should have momentum, not to mention the longevity of my generation cultivators, who can say for sure what will happen in the future?"
When the sad-faced warrior heard this, instead of feeling it, he grinned disdainfully and said, "It's another thirty years in Hedong, and thirty years in Hexi?"
"Come on, that's just a trick to trick people into coaxing children. ”
When the man with the sword heard this, his eyebrows jumped, and he raised his voice: "Since Brother Tai knows it like this, why don't you and I make a bet?"
"Bet?"
The warrior shook his head, and threw out his storage bag without even raising his eyelids: "Bet it, just take whatever you want, don't be polite to me." ”
"Let's bet on who will win the city lord this time?"
The man with the sword didn't look at the storage bag on the ground, and he didn't wait for him to respond, so he continued: "Just bet on Jun Yi, which everyone is not optimistic about, if he wins, you should believe that there are miracles in the world after all, right?"
Hearing this, the warrior's face was stunned, and he subconsciously looked up at the man with the sword, and at the same time quietly put away his storage bag: "Why are you doing this?"
"There is true love in the world!"
The man with the sword had his long hair swaying, looking up at the sky, and there was a faint light lingering around him.
These loud words made the curious onlookers around them stunned in place, but they didn't expect that in this cruel and chaotic world, there were such martial artists with affection, which was really rare to see, and it made people feel awe.
"Good. ”
The warrior's confused expression gradually brightened, he got up and looked at the man with the sword, nodded heavily, and said with some hesitation: "This brother, then who are you pressing?"
"Lu Qing. ”
Without thinking, the man with the sword spoke bluntly, and as soon as he stretched out his big hand, he threw out tens of thousands of spirit crystals, pressed them under Lu Qing's name, and then said with a serious face: "In order to let Brother Tai come out of the shadows, what is this loss?"
"Brother..."
When this martial artist listened, he felt as if something was not right, but he couldn't say it, especially the serious expression of the man with the sword in front of him, so that he couldn't have the slightest suspicion.
Just thanked with excitement in his eyes: "It's hard for you." ”
"That's what I'm supposed to do. ”
The man with the sword shook his head, his face was calm, and then he looked at the warriors watching around, and said earnestly: "Brothers, how hard it is for us to walk in the world?"
"Can you bear to watch our fellow men die in such a humble loss of faith?"
"How sad is it that we stand by and watch him today, and others will stand by and watch us in the future?"
"Don't you say it?"
As soon as these words came out, all the warriors present looked solemn, and then they all donated generously and bet on Jun Yi's name: "What this friend said is right, it is true that a certain person is deafening." ”
"100,000 spirit crystals, I will accompany my brother to go to Taiwan. ”
Everyone echoed in unison, the warrior was also full of gratitude, and the man with the sword nodded heavily, but he didn't say much, as if he was moved, he looked up to the sky and left, hiding his face and not saying more.
"What a nice man. ”
"Truthful example of righteousness, light of righteousness. ”
"My generation of warriors walks in the world, and we should take him as an example. ”
Looking at his departing back, all the warriors in the wine shop were full of emotion and offered their awe.
......
But a corner.
The man with the sword was hiding in the alley, his body couldn't help but twitch, and in the end, he couldn't help but squat on the ground, looking up to the sky and laughing, and tears came out of the corners of his eyes.
"This group of fools is really easy to deceive, it's really simple, if you all crush Lu Qing, who will give me Zhuo Yu to lose money?"
"These spirit crystals have paid the tuition fees, so that you can know what is the sinister human heart. ”
"Hey, hey, next..."
