On the other side of the dense forest, a man with a strange appearance was walking with Lan Xinyue at the moment.

This person is in his fifties, two meters tall, with a broad forehead, thick eyebrows, a pair of tiger eyes, sideburns and beard, and an innate majesty in his appearance. This person is the current King of Qianyan County, Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang's father's name is Qin Lei, and he is the eldest brother of his generation, and he is also the king of the previous generation of Thousand Flames. It was also in his hands that the Thousand Flames County gradually became stronger. During that time, the Purple Cloud Monarch was almost completely suppressed by the Thousand Flame Monarchy, and the competition after the Heroes Meeting was completely disadvantaged.

And Qin Jiang's talent is actually even better than Qin Lei. Originally, people believed that the Thousand Flames County Council was upgraded to the Thousand Flames Kingdom in the hands of Qin Jiang. But who would have thought that how many years have passed, Qin Jiang has not done the slightest, and even rumors have flowed out that he has become a puppet of Youyue. However, the Purple Cloud County Kingdom became more and more powerful under the leadership of Chu Guyun.

Today, the royal capital of the Thousand Flames Monarchy has been almost devastated. But Qin Jiang and Lan Xinyue were heading in the direction of Ziyun County, and Qin Jiang didn't even take a look at his hometown.

At this moment, Qin Jiang was playing with a fruit as red as a crown in his hand. He looked at it for a moment, then threw the fruit back to Lan Xinyue.

"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I really didn't know that the legendary Blood Phoenix Fruit really existed! Each of these fruits contains your thousand-year-old cultivation, right?" Qin Jiang's tone was very calm, as if he was not interested in this fruit at all.

"That's right!" Lan Xinyue put the fruit into a ring-shaped spatial treasure, "Now you should believe me, right?"

"Believe," Qin Jiang nodded, and a hint of greed finally flashed in his eyes.

Almost an hour ago, Lan Xinyue took advantage of the unpreparedness of the moon to unlock the soul power seal on Qin Jiang's body. And Qin Jiang, who had regained consciousness, naturally regarded Lan Xinyue as Youyue's minions, and wanted to kill her on the spot. And Lan Xinyue immediately pretended to be extremely aggrieved, and pushed all the sins onto Youyue's body.

Of course, Qin Jiang is not a fool, and naturally understands that the mastermind behind the scenes is Youyue. However, he was still unwilling to let Lan Xinyue go. So, Lan Xinyue proposed that she could use the Blood Phoenix Fruit to make a deal with him: as long as Qin Jiang could send herself safely to Long Haotian's side, she would offer these sixteen fruits with both hands.

At first, Qin Jiang naturally wouldn't believe that there was really such a thing as a Blood Phoenix Fruit in this world. However, under Lan Xinyue's gambling curse, he still decided to give it a try. Especially when Lan Xinyue mentioned that this blood phoenix fruit was on Youyue's body, it made Qin Jiang have the idea of settling accounts with Youyue.

In the end, Qin Jiang succeeded in smashing Youyue and snatched the spatial ring from his body. However, because the outside of this ring was sealed by a soul power imposed by the dark moon, Qin Jiang couldn't unlock it no matter what. And Youyue's soul power technique is mostly taught by Lan Xinyue. So this seal is not a problem at all in front of Lan Xinyue.

The girl took out a blood phoenix fruit for Qin Jiang to inspect, and when she really saw the magic of this fruit, Qin Jiang's heart naturally swelled with endless greedy thoughts.

If he could get all these sixteen fruits, then his cultivation would quickly reach the peak of the Demon Tribulation Realm, and he might even hit the Vajra Realm!

Although, he saw that his royal capital was already devastated. However, at the thought that he was expected to impact the realm that ordinary people dreamed of, Qin Jiang's heart quickly wavered.

After all, how could a small county king be compared to a Venerable of the Vajra Realm? As long as he could become a Venerable himself, he could easily destroy a county with a single hand. Even if you want to rule a country, it will be easy to do! When the time comes, you can go back and build the glorious foundation of your ancestors and ancestors.

So, without the slightest hesitation, he agreed to Lan Xinyue's request, left his royal capital, and followed Lan Xinyue in the direction of Ziyun County.

Of course, Lan Xinyue is also vigilant at all times. She knows very well the truth that "the husband is not guilty of his crimes", not to mention, she herself is a priceless jade at this moment. Although Qin Jiang now looks like a decent man and a gentleman on his face, his heart is really unpredictable.

"As long as I send you to that Long Haotian, you will give me all the fruits of this ring, right?" Qin Jiang's eyes never left Lan Xinyue's ring, and his gaze became more and more intense.

"Of course it's true," Lan Xinyue said lightly, "But Lord Junwang, I'm still going to say ugly things first." If you dare to think anything wrong before meeting Long Haotian, then the transaction between you and me will be stopped. Although my cultivation is not as good as yours, you should not underestimate my methods too much!"

"Hahahaha!" Qin Jiang let out a hearty laugh, he touched his cheeks and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say! Naturally, what has been said is counted. Alright, without further ado, let's go!"

However, he said so, but Qin Jiang's heart had already made a wishful calculation.

I only promised to send you to Long Haotian, but I didn't promise not to rob you again after I delivered it. Long Haotian was just a junior in the Flame Heaven Realm, how could he be his opponent? If he dared to stop him at that time, he would directly kill the matter, and then take the Blood Phoenix Fruit and Lan Xinyue away together.

And since Youyue can find the Blood Phoenix Feather, how can I not find it? As long as I find it, then Lan Xinyue's remaining 70,000 years of cultivation will be all for my use. At that time, he will not only be as simple as the Vajra Realm, and even the Arhat Realm will not be an extravagant hope.

And as long as you reach the Arhat realm, you can open up an independent space and pass on the power of the bloodline. From now on, the Qin family will be completely brilliant!

The more Qin Jiang thought about it, the more beautiful it became, and he even felt that this was the compensation that God had made him suffer for several years of bad luck, and directly in the moment of soberness, he sent a treasure like Lan Xinyue to himself!

And just when Qin Jiang's wishful thinking was making a ping-pong sound, suddenly, Qin Jiang stopped abruptly, and at the same time looked around very vigilantly. And Lan Xinyue also felt a terrifying force descending from the Nine Heavens at this moment.

"Who! come out!" The smile on Qin Jiang's face had long since disappeared, and he saw that there was an extra golden battle axe in his hand, and he was on full alert. But even though he was now a powerhouse at the fifth peak of the Demon Tribulation Realm, he still felt a trace of fear at this moment.

"You are Qin Jiang, the current county king of the Thousand Flames Monarchy?"

"That's right, since Your Excellency is here, why don't you show up and see it!" Qin Jiang shouted angrily.

"With your strength, you don't deserve to let me come out!" the man's voice was arrogant to the extreme.

"Who the hell are you, who the hell are you!" Qin Jiang raised his battle axe and cursed angrily into the void. But he just didn't dare to fly to the place where the sound came from, to fight the voice hidden behind the clouds.

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that next year today will be your anniversary——"

As soon as the word "year" came out, a terrifying thunderbolt appeared behind the clouds, slashing towards the direction of the Qin River. The glow was so bright that it was impossible to look at it directly.

Lan Xinyue saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly dodged to the side. But Qin Jiang seemed to be stumped by an invisible force, and he couldn't move an inch at all.

"Flash!" Lan Xinyue exclaimed. But as soon as she finished speaking, that terrifying thunder had already fallen on Qin Jiang's body. Hearing a loud "boom", Lan Xinyue felt that the entire earth was trembling violently.
