The pace of cultivation never stops.

Although he retreated, Long Haotian also understood the gap between himself and Cheng Yun at the moment. If it weren't for the "Divine Bird Shot" to catch her off guard, she would most likely lose.

The next day, he rushed into the imperial forest again without hesitation, and at the same time added twelve points of caution, at least in the near future, it is better to temporarily avoid Cheng Yun's edge.

............

Before you know it, it's late at night again.

In this day, Long Haotian killed more than one hundred and twenty brute beasts. Half of them have reached the first level of cultivation in the Flame Heaven Realm, and their strength is very strong. Of course, the reason why Long Haotian was able to kill brute beasts across so many levels was mainly based on two points.

One of them is his superior combat talent, as well as the rich combat experience of the previous life, so that he can quickly figure out the attack routines of those brute beasts and kill them.

After all, the intelligence of the low-level brute beasts is not high, and their advantage over humans is nothing more than their physical body and strength, of course, there are occasionally agile bodies like ghost monkeys. However, these advantages are easy for talented warriors to grasp, and once mastered, the advantages are gone, and killing becomes less difficult.

The second is that the brute beasts in the royal forest are weaker than those in the mountains outside. After all, the area of the Royal Forest is far from being comparable to Longque Ridge, and the general environment here is not dangerous, and those brute beasts that have no status in Longque Ridge can dominate a small area here. So this leapfrog challenge, there is actually a lot of water.

However, even if there is moisture, it still has a lot of benefits for Long Haotian's current realm. Although a day's bloody fighting failed to improve Long Haotian's realm, whether it was martial arts or physical body, he was greatly trained.

"You must improve yourself as soon as possible!" At this moment, he leaned against a tree and drank the blood of the beast while muttering to himself, "As long as I stand out at the year-end martial arts competition, even if Yanxiong doesn't keep me, I believe that there will definitely be a sect in Dragon Bird City that will throw an olive branch to him!"

Although he didn't have any good feelings about the Yan family, Long Haotian knew very well that if he wanted to rise, the one he could rely on the most would be the Yan family.

From the conversation he had with Ronghua that day, he had already sniffed out something.

Many years ago, the year-end martial arts competition was almost a game within several families such as the Yan family and the Cheng family, testing the cultivation of the children of each family. And with the gradual decline of the juniors of each family, they have opened the door of convenience for many cold martial artists.

Especially in the Yan family, there is only one genius around the age of sixteen. Although this gentleman is known as a once-in-a-century encounter, you must know that even if you are a peerless genius, it is very difficult to support a big family completely on your own.

The reserve of talents requires not only height, but also depth and breadth. And now the Yan family lacks these two points.

In layman's terms, the talent reserve of the Yan family today is like an obelisk, with a height and a spire, but it is very easy to break. The talent reserve of a real wealthy family should be like a pyramid, which can ensure the stability and longevity of the family.

Long Haotian's grandfather Long Shan married the daughter of the Yan family back then, and his mother Yan Xian was also from the Yan family. Although it is a foreign surname, if he can rise strongly, Yan Xiong will never cut him because of a waste Yan Wu and a shrew Yan Qing.

Taking 10,000 steps back, even if Yan Xiong is really narrow-minded and can't tolerate him, the major organizations and sects located in Dragon Bird City will not sit idly by.

In the Holy Continent, there are many organizations, sects, and even sects that are outside the central power, and they are both good and evil, and they have semicolons in major cities, either high-profile or low-key.

Although Long Haotian in this life was not talented in martial arts, he did not have any information about the Dragon Bird City Sect in his mind. But Long Haotian was convinced that such a sect would definitely exist, and they would never miss a single talent.

So in the final analysis, having absolute strength is the only way to survive in this world where the strong are respected.

Just as he was thinking, suddenly the sound of horses' hooves sounded in his ears again, and this time it sounded like there were forty or fifty people!

"What's going on?" Long Haotian became alert, "Why have you been so lively in the past two days?" Could it be Cheng Yun again?"

Just when he was puzzled, dozens of shaking torches accompanied by footsteps from far and near, and at the same time, he could hear the collision of armor and weapons, which was completely different from Cheng Yun's group of people yesterday, and it sounded like well-trained soldiers.

"Don't run!"

Long Haotian was about to hide in the bushes, but he was seen by a person, and before he could answer, he listened to the "whoosh" dozens of arrow feathers completely cut off his retreat. And a moment later, Long Haotian found that he had been surrounded in the center.

"Bah!" I heard a voice reprimand, "Bold dog thief, dare to go wild in the royal forest of the prince!

"The Imperial Forest?" Long Haotian was excited, "Could it be that the hill behind the Long family is actually the periphery of the Imperial Forest?"

To tell the truth, he had heard of the place of the Imperial Forest, or to be exact, the memory of Long Haotian in this life. But he was completely immersed in cultivation for the past two days, and all he thought about was how to make himself stronger, and he didn't even think about where he was.

"But I don't know who Your Excellency is?" Long Haotian asked.

"Cheng Heng!" the man roared angrily, like thunder.

The Cheng Heng in front of him is the cousin of Cheng Feng and Cheng Hong, the father of Cheng Yun.

In addition to marrying the Yan family, the Cheng family will also send some children to join the Yan family's troops. Cheng Heng is now a subordinate of the fourth prince Yan Meng, and his main responsibility is to maintain this mountain forest.

This gentleman is in his early forties, two meters tall, with thick eyebrows and eyes, sideburns and beard, and is quite powerful. However, his talent is very mediocre, at the age of forty, he has smelted a third-order demon beast star species, and now it is the ninth level of the Star Refining Realm. However, this gentleman was born with strange powers, holding a five-hundred-pound mace in his hand.

And yesterday, it was under his operation that Cheng Yun and the others were able to enter the Imperial Forest to cultivate.

"Cheng Heng?" Long Haotian heard his surname Cheng, and asked casually, "But I don't know who you are with a woman named Cheng Yun?"

"Presumptuous!" Cheng Heng saw that Long Haotian despised their Cheng family's proud daughter of heaven so much, so he didn't get angry, "What are you!

"Sure enough, it's someone from the Cheng family!" Long Haotian nodded. How smart he was, he immediately guessed the reason why Cheng Yun entered the imperial forest last night.

"Then I want to ask you, since this is the Imperial Forest, why did that Cheng Yun bring a group of people in last night? Could it be that someone is playing favoritism and taking advantage of his position to facilitate his own family?"

"You!" Cheng Heng was shocked, he didn't expect Long Haotian to say such things in front of more than forty subordinates.

Although they are nominally Cheng Heng's subordinates, most of the soldiers are loyal to the Yan family, or to be precise, loyal to the fourth prince Yan Meng, and they are not convinced by this waste commander who was inserted because of the family.

Last night, in order to make it convenient for Cheng Yunxing, Cheng Heng deliberately broke up this group of soldiers, which had already aroused the suspicion of many people. As soon as Long Haotian said this, the soldiers suddenly cast strange glances at Cheng Heng.

"Look at what!" Cheng Henghuan glared, "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense!"

"Am I talking nonsense?" Long Haotian had already noticed Cheng Heng's weak tone, so he hurriedly added a fire, "After Cheng Yun went home yesterday, didn't she mention her experience in the Imperial Forest to you?

When Cheng Heng heard this, his body felt as if he had been struck by lightning.

As soon as Cheng Yun returned home last night, everyone found that she was not in the right state. In addition, the five mastiffs were almost all destroyed, Lu Jin was killed, and Lu Yu was disabled, and at first everyone agreed that they must have encountered a powerful brute in the depths of the imperial forest.

But the people of the Lu family and the Wang family are not fools. As soon as Lu Jin's body and other people's injuries were examined, it was found that this was done by humans. Who has ever seen a brute beast go to seal a man's cave?

Therefore, several major families all pointed the finger at Cheng Yun. There is no doubt that it must be Cheng Yun's divine power that made Brother Gongzi unbearable, and then he made a move, which caused death.

But in the face of Qianfu's accusations, Cheng Yun always gritted his teeth. The truth of last night's events must not be known, then the halo above her head will disappear completely. As a result, the relationship between the Cheng family, the Lu family, and the Wang family became more and more stiff.

Of course, Cheng Heng knew about it, and he was also entrusted by the family to investigate it as thoroughly as possible.

Not long ago, he found the corpses of many brute beasts, all of which had been dug up from Neidan, and he knew that there were people cultivating here. At first, he thought it was someone from the Yan family, but in the end he found that it was an extremely unfamiliar face.

Hearing Long Haotian say those words at this moment, Cheng Heng looked at him with frightened eyes and said angrily: "Could it be that you did it!"

As soon as these words came out, all the soldiers once again cast dissatisfied glances at Cheng Heng. Because he had invisibly admitted that he had secretly let Cheng Yun come here to practice last night.

"Master Cheng!" I heard a soldier say, "Could it be that the Cheng family really came here to cultivate last night?"

"What's the matter!" Cheng Heng said angrily, "The Cheng family and the Yan family have always been good friends, can't our Cheng family come here to cultivate! I don't believe it, after Lord Guogong knows about this, he will take my eldest lady to blame!"

"Lord Guogong may not pursue Cheng Yun, but do you think he will let you go?" Long Haotian's tone was extremely calm, but it made Cheng Heng feel extremely cold.

Yes, it is indeed possible that Yanxiong will hinder the relationship between the two families and not take Cheng Yun as a knife. But he is a small leader, and in Yanxiong's eyes, he is like a mustard. What's more, when it comes to the root, Cheng Yun's private entry into the royal forest is because he Cheng Heng dereliction of duty and favoritism!

"Hahahaha!" Seeing Cheng Heng's frightened eyes, two fierce lights suddenly shot out, "Stinky boy! You know too much! Lord Guogong will indeed not let you go, but before this, I will not let you go!"
