Chapter 171: Envoy of the Royal Family

Suddenly, Li Ding was grabbed by the back of his neck and lifted up from the ground, it was the old man of the Split Star in the Ghost Sword Three Stars.The crowd at the entrance of the cave naturally got out of the way, and everyone followed Duan Hu and walked out with their heads held high.

"I still have the strength to speak just now, don't say you can't walk. The old man of the Broken Star pushed Li Ding forward, and the old man of the Broken Star and the old man of the broken star walked on both sides, looking at Li Ding with fierce eyes, for fear that he would make something strange.

Although he didn't have much strength on his body, Li Ding still followed out, and only then did he see clearly that the people outside the entrance of the cave were almost a hundred, but most of them were old people and children, wearing shabby cloth clothes or animal skin clothes, except for a few middle-aged men with weapons in their hands, the rest of the people looked at Duan Hu and them with respect with their empty hands.

It seems that the life of these people on the Ten Thousand Caves Peak is not very good, and money is indeed something that these people urgently need. But the memory from Duan Hu did not provide any more superfluous information, and Li Ding did not know how these people usually lived.

Maybe these people will rob passing caravans and civilians like ordinary gang members, and do some extortion, but these are not Li Ding's concerns, he is now curious about who is coming from outside the cave.

For this reason, after leaving the cave, Li Ding subconsciously looked up at the outside of the cave.

I saw that outside the cave was a corridor with a width of a few feet, extending to the left and right, and caves of different sizes were lined up one after another, just like rooms.

It's just that the aisle has been winding up to the left and turning the direction I don't know how long, to the right is a lone road extending down the mountain, and the opposite side of the aisle is the straight cliff, and the scene under the peak can not be seen clearly in a cloud and mist.

"You'd better be honest and don't force me to use the Shu Yuan Spell on you again. Finding that Li Ding's attention was on the cliff, the old man of Split Star said coldly.

Although Li Ding is as light as a swallow and the strength of his body is even more extraordinary, he does not have the ability to step into the air, he will not jump from here in order to escape, and even if he has the opportunity to jump, in front of so many powerhouses in the late stage of the Ming Heart realm, he has no chance to escape at all.

"Do you think I'm going to jump?" Li Ding said with a wry smile, not wanting to say that as soon as the words fell, a sharp scream came from the air again.

Li Ding looked up at the sound, only to see a huge black shadow swooping down in mid-air, it was actually a big bird with a black body, just looking at the body size, he knew that it was a bird-shaped spirit beast that had reached the mortal body.

Seeing this, Li Ding couldn't help but be surprised, but saw that everyone was standing in place with calm faces, so he had to look up again, and found that there was a person sitting on the back of the big bird.

The giant bird stopped when it flew to the top of the aisle, and its outstretched wings brought a gust of wind, forcing some of the old men's children in the aisle to hide in the cave, but Duan Hu and the others stood still.

The fat old man's expression was cold, and the blue light flashed under his feet, and it turned out to be the vitality of the water family. The old man fell in the wind, and his gray robe swayed in the wind, looking extremely elegant, showing an extraordinary bearing.

"The vitality is condensed and heavy, containing soul power fluctuations, and this fat old man is also a soul gathering realm. Dan said.

With the experience of touching the edge of soul power before, under Xiao Dan's reminder, Li Ding felt the strangeness in the fluctuation of the vitality of the strong in the Soul Gathering Realm for the first time, but he didn't expect this to be the fluctuation of soul power, Li Ding immediately understood why he didn't use his soul power to resist, the vitality explosion of the strong in the Soul Gathering Realm would have a particularly strong sense of oppression, and it turned out that it faintly contained an attack effect similar to the power of soul dementoring.

What surprised Li Ding even more was that he didn't expect to see so many Soul Gathering Realm powerhouses one after another, but he saw that the old man just landed not far from Duan Hu and the others, and the giant bird flew to the side but did not leave.

Although Duan Hu here is older than the fat old man, his momentum is not weaker than that of the old man, staring at the old man with a serious expression, Duan Hu said: "I didn't expect it to be Lord Wang who came over in person, it's really rare, but why is it only Lord Wang?"

"A hairy boy, do you still want to make a move? I just hope that before I come, you didn't do anything you shouldn't do. The fat old man said coldly.

"Don't worry, I know the rules better than Lord Wang, not to mention the person the royal family wants, this kid didn't say anything, so naturally I won't ask anything. Duan Hu said without moving.

The corners of Li Ding's mouth twitched, and he almost laughed bitterly, if he hadn't had an explosion of soul power because of Muyu's awakening, he might have been succeeded by Duan Hu's soul power, but he didn't want Duan Hu to say this.

However, at this moment, the old man's hand was firmly on Li Ding's back, and it seemed that as long as he moved slightly, he would be bound by the Shu Yuan Curse again. However, Li Ding didn't intend to speak at all, he didn't want to complicate things.

Because Li Ding only saw the old man from beginning to end, he didn't know the identity of this old man named Wang, because there was no information about this person in the memory of peeping at Duan Hu, but obviously this Lord Wang was the envoy of the royal family.

And Lord Wang's words confirmed that he really had only one person coming, even if he was a powerhouse in the Soul Gathering Realm, it undoubtedly gave Li Ding a chance to escape, because just before Li Ding thought of this, Xiao Dan's sinister laughter had already sounded in his mind. Li Ding knew that Xiao Dan would never react like this for no reason.

Regarding Duan Hu's answer, Lord Wang frowned slightly, and said: "Duan Hu, you'd better be responsible for what you say, don't really do anything stupid, you must know that if it weren't for the great king Nian who spared your clansmen for his exploits back then, there would be no place for you in this Qianren Mountain." ”

Hearing these threatening words, Duan Hu's face turned pale and he said, "What does Lord Wang mean by this?"

Lord Wang sneered and said, "Don't think that I don't know anything because I rarely go in and out of the Heavenly Sorrow Stream, the ban on you says that you and your people must not leave this Ten Thousand Caves Peak, but what have you secretly done in the past few years, you and I know it? Any report is a big crime to exterminate the clan." ”

Duan Hu laughed fiercely and said in a deep voice: "Lord Wang is really well-informed, but since Lord Wang mentioned the king, that Duan Hu has to say a word." Duan Hu, the king's grace, dare not forget, so after entering Qianren Mountain, he also abides by his duties to eliminate bandits, so that the caravan is not looted, and it is not right for one party to have long-term peace and stability, isn't this wrong?"

"Hmph. Lord Wang suddenly snorted coldly, his eyes swept over the people around Duan Hu and said: "It's a good thing to make one party peaceful for a long time, can it be that these people in the gang will really change their ways, not to mention that the officials and soldiers of Gusang City will handle these things, why do you need to point fingers." ”

These words made the Ghost Sword Sanxing and the others glare at Lord Wang angrily, and one of the five sons of Xiaoyao was about to say something, but was grabbed by the thin old man Feitianjiao.

"I didn't expect Duan Hu to be under house arrest here, and I don't know what mistake he made, so that he could gather the bandits in the Thousand Thousand Mountains under his command, this person is indeed not simple. Xiao Dan said suddenly.

"Duan Hu should do this for his people, they are under house arrest and are not allowed to come and go at will, but these guys of the bandit gang are not restricted by the royal ban at all, otherwise I think Duan Hu and his people would have been trapped in these caves a long time ago. Li Ding said in his heart, although he was arrested by Duan Hu, there was also a trace of admiration in his heart.

Here, in response to Lord Wang's accusation, Duan Hu suddenly grinned and said: "It's a pity that City Lord Zhong and Lord Wang are always busy with affairs, and Duan Hu has to do these things for him, but I heard that Lord Wang is also doing a lot of things secretly, although Duan Hu is guilty, but if he wants to submit something to the top, there is still this channel." ”

Hearing this, Lord Wang's cold face suddenly twitched slightly: "Don't talk nonsense, I have a life this time, don't talk about this with you, just hand over the person quickly." ”

Hearing this, even Li Ding heard Lord Wang's weak heart, obviously this person really did something unsightly behind his back. For a moment, the extraordinary bearing he had shown before collapsed instantly.

Everyone couldn't help laughing secretly, and Duan Hu smiled again: "There are some things, please Lord Wang turn a blind eye, this will be good for everyone." ”

Lord Wang's white old face was a little swollen, and he couldn't help but say angrily: "The king's life is here, I can't delay, quickly hand over that kid to me." ”

The corners of Duan Hu's mouth grinned slightly, grabbed Li Ding into his hand, and said in a deep voice: "Pay the money with one hand and hand over the person with the other, but I want to remind Lord Wang that I snatched this kid from a Xuankong Realm powerhouse, if something goes wrong after handing over someone to you, it has nothing to do with me." Duan Hu said.

Lord Wang looked Li Ding up and down, as if in order to confirm Li Ding's identity, his eyes were slightly cold, and then his eyes fiercely reached out and touched the spirit ring in his left hand, and the blue light flashed, and a golden crystal card appeared in his hand.

"Here is the promised 500 million gold coins, which is a lot of money, and you don't have to worry about anything else. Lord Wang threw the crystal card at Duan Hu and said coldly.

Duan Hu took the crystal card, but did not hand over Li Ding immediately, but instead said: "I just said, I snatched this kid from a Xuankong Realm powerhouse, such a big enemy under the tree, does this 500 million gold coins seem to be a little less." ”

"Presumptuous, Duan Hu, you dare to blackmail me, do you know the consequences of doing so. Lord Wang said angrily.

"How dare Duan Hu blackmail Lord Wang, but although they are only separated by a few peaks, they have not seen Lord Wang for many years, I heard that Lord Wang has earned a lot of income from mining Yuan Wilderness Crystal for Lord Wang in recent years, after all, you and I were colleagues, and my clansmen are living in hardship, I just hope that Lord Wang will help you. Duan Hu said with a smile.

"You ......" Lord Wang opened his mouth to scold, but Duan Hu continued: "I heard that since the mine was in charge of Lord Wang, the output has been rising, and even the quality of the Yuan Huang Spar sold on the black market is getting better and better, I don't know if Lord Wang has secretly understood, can you notify the officers and soldiers to investigate this matter, you must know that selling Yuan Huang Crystal privately is a capital crime." ”

After listening to Duan Hu's words, everyone laughed and said nothing, but Lord Wang's face changed greatly, and he said sharply: "Duan Hu, don't push people too much......"

"100 million gold coins, I don't want much, it's just a drop in the bucket for you. Duan Hu interrupted Lord Wang's words and said in a loud voice.

Lord Wang's face turned red and white for a while, but he finally took out another crystal card from the spirit ring and said, "I can give you the gold coin, but hand it over to me first." ”

Seeing this, Duan Hu suddenly said with a fierce look in his eyes: "I'm sorry kid, if you want to blame this world, blame this world." As he spoke, he pushed Li Ding towards Lord Wang, who casually threw out the gold card and grabbed Li Ding's shoulder and grabbed it in his hand.

In this regard, Li Ding seemed very obedient and pretended to be extremely painful. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew suddenly, and when the giant bird landed, Li Ding was thrown on the back of the giant bird by Lord Wang.

However, at the moment when Duan Hu caught the crystal card, Li Ding shouted to him with a calm face: "Uncle Duan, I hope you will never do that thing until you settle down your clan, because I don't think you will succeed at all, don't let yourself regret it for the rest of your life." ”

Hearing Li Ding's words, Duan Hu was stunned, because no one had called him Uncle Duan for many years, and Li Ding actually broke through the deepest pain in his heart with one word, which made him unbelievable.

However, by the time he reacted, Li Ding had already jumped into the sky quickly on a giant bird. (To be continued.) )
