Chapter 20 One Against Three
In the lush forest, the howl of demon beasts is heard from time to time, and the corpses of one or more demon beasts can be found after moving less than a kilometer.
Throwing off the blood left over when he killed the demon beast on the top of the gorgeous long sword, the seventh prince Li He looked at the fifth prince Li Xiaoran, who was also swinging his sword into the sheath next to him, and said with a little flattery: "Fifth brother, now you are so light in killing the intermediate demon beasts, it seems that this time in the battle, the third prince Li Tai and the ninth prince Li Zhi are not the opponents of the fifth brother." ”
Hunting is different from other literary examinations, and it is faced with living demon beasts, and the danger naturally increases greatly.
Some people who are not strong will naturally choose strong companions to hunt together.
Li Fengfan, the nineteenth prince next to him, snorted: "What about the third prince and the ninth prince, the fifth brother for this battle, this year's cultivation of forgetting sleep and food, finally broke through the quenching realm and entered the marrow refining realm a month ago, and his strength has increased greatly, he can only hunt the prince in the first round, Li Tai and Li Zhi are not in this maple leaf forest, otherwise they will definitely make them look good." ”
Because of the two items drawn this time, the top three princes in previous years did not need to participate in the first round of hunting, and could only fight them in the ring.
The top three in the hunt are eligible to participate in the ring competition, and the top three in previous years will fight to determine the ranking, and the rest of the princes will be ranked according to their results in the hunt.
Li Xiaoran listened to the compliments in the words of the two brothers next to him, and his heart was also relieved, but on the surface, he waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, as long as you can get the first place in this hunt, you will be able to directly challenge the three of them at that time, which is also a matter of time." ”
Li He and Li Fengfan also nodded when they heard this, with a hint of excitement in their expressions.
In the eyes of the two, at this time, Li Xiaoran had already entered the realm of refining the marrow, and his strength was extraordinary, even if he met the crown prince Li Chengqian, he would not fall behind.
As long as Li Xiaoran can get the first place in this competition, then the ranking of the two will definitely improve accordingly, and then he will not worry about resources and expenses in the next year.
"Step, step"
Just after the three of them agreed on the next goal, a slight sound of footsteps suddenly came from the side, but it was Li Yi who had walked all the way here.
Looking at Li Yi, who was slowly approaching, the three of them were stunned for a moment, and then the expressions on their faces turned into ridicule.
"That, isn't it Lao Jiu Li Yi?" Looking at Li Yi who was slowly approaching, Li He chuckled.
Li Fengfan on the side also nodded and said: "It's indeed him, it is said that he healed his legs half a year ago and can start practicing, so he participated in this battle." ”
"Heh, I've only been cultivating for half a year, and it's not very good to come to cultivate, I'm afraid that the ones I hunted before were some low-grade demon beasts!"
After a pause, he asked, "How is it?"
Prince Li Fengfan smiled coldly, "Why not, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also a piece of meat, he sent it to the door stupidly, if he doesn't do it, even I will be embarrassed." ”
Li He laughed twice, nodded and said, "That's right, let's teach the thirteenth brother a lesson, so that he knows that the battle is not as beautiful as he imagined." ”
After the two finished discussing, they put their eyes on Li Xiaoran, who sighed and said: "Pay attention to proportion, after all, there must be a lot of guards around, if the matter reaches the ears of my father, I'm afraid it's not good." ”
Li He nodded, "Fifth brother, don't worry, we are measured." Then he turned his gaze and looked at Li Yi, who was getting closer and closer, and a cruel smile rose at the corner of his mouth.
When Li Yi was less than ten meters closer to the three of them, Li He stepped forward and said with a smile: "Isn't this the thirteenth brother!
Li Yi nodded slightly, as a greeting, and then said softly: "It's not good or bad, so the younger brother wants to ask the three of you to do a favor." ”
Li Fengfan took a step forward and glanced at the robe that was already a little torn on Li Yi's body at this time, Li Fengfan could imagine the difficult appearance of Li Yi, who was low-level in strength, even when facing those low-grade demon beasts.
Then he heard Li Yi's words and laughed: "Help?"
In the eyes of Li Fengfan and Li He, at this time, Li Yi's robe has been damaged in many places, and the help that the former said is not anything else, it should be that he senses the lack of strength and wants to team up with the three of them to hunt demon beasts.
"Oh, then what do you want us to help you?" Li He asked with a slight frown, and also motioned to Li Fengfan without a trace.
Seeing this, the latter glanced at Li Yi with contempt, and then slowly walked to the other side, if Li Yi wanted to escape, he could intercept him at the first time.
It didn't seem that he saw Li Fengfan, who had already circled behind him, and Li Yi's expression was still indifferent: "Brother Chen is not very satisfied with the number of demon cores he has obtained during this time, so I want to ask the three of you to help and leave the storage bag on your body." ”
"Gah!"
Hearing Li Yi's words, which were completely different from his intentions, Li Hehe and Li Fengfan, who had already gone around behind Li Yi, were nervous, and after a while, they laughed out loud as if they had heard some extremely funny joke.
Even Li Xiaoran, who was standing far away, had a smile on the corner of his mouth, shook his head, and looked at Li Yi's gaze full of disdain.
It seemed that he had laughed enough, Li He suppressed his laughter, "Thirteenth brother, there were many rumors about you in the market, and I didn't take it to heart at first, but now it seems that those rumors are probably serious, but I don't know this, now it seems that Thirteenth brother, your brain is still a little unbright!"
When the words fell, the smile on his face instantly converged, and he shouted in a deep voice: "Now, hand over your storage bag, and then get out of the maple leaf forest for me immediately, otherwise, you don't have to participate in the next ring match, just go back to recuperate!"
Sighing lightly, Li Yi shook his head, "Why bother to suffer for yourself." Between the words, there was also an extra long sword in his hand.
"Heh! After speaking, he raised the long sword in his hand and quickly stabbed towards Li Yi, while Li Fengfan behind him stood in place casually, without the idea of making a move, in his opinion, Li Yi was not worried at all.
However, just when Li He's long sword was raised and not stabbed out, he only felt a flower in front of him, and the next moment, his chest was already covered by a long sword.
"How could this be?" Looking at the long sword on his chest that was still stained with some blood, Li He's eyes widened, and his eyes were full of shock and shock.
Li Xiaoran, who was originally leaning on a tree to the side and laughing at the development of things, had no indifference on his face, his body stood up straight, staring at the long sword on Li He's chest at this time, stunned, because even he didn't see the sword that Li Yi sent out before.
"Snort"
didn't care about the two people who were stunned in front of them, Li Yi's long sword that was originally on Li He's chest slashed across his chest clothes, and as the storage bag was revealed, the long sword was directly provoked.
The next moment, his body was violently swept away, and he rushed to Li Fengfan, who was still standing lazily in place at this time, and didn't know what had happened before, and snatched away the storage bag he put on his chest.
It was also when the storage bags on the two of them were connected to Li Yi's hands that Li He and Li Xiaoran, who had been stunned before, came back to their senses and changed their expressions.
Taking a light breath and looking at Li Yi, Li Xiaoran said coldly: "I didn't expect the thirteenth brother to have such strength, and he hid it really deeply! If it weren't for the thirteenth brother's participation in the battle this time, I'm afraid all our brothers would not know the means of the thirteenth brother." ”
Li Yi shrugged his shoulders, but did not answer.
This kind of contemptuous response made Li Xiaoran's eyelids jump, and he raised the long sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword pointed directly at Li Yi, "Now put down the two of them and your storage bag and leave, I can not blame the past, otherwise don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless." ”
Li Yi laughed twice and looked at Li Xiaoran, "What the Fifth Emperor Brother said is exactly what I want to say, I don't know what you think?"
"Hmph!" Li Xiaoran snorted coldly, his eyes suddenly opened, his essence flashed, and his body swooped towards Li Yi like a cheetah.
Perhaps because he was afraid of Li Yi's strength, it had just begun, and Li Xiaoran had no intention of keeping his hand, and the snowy sword light brought up a heavy sword shadow, like a raging wave.
At the same time, Li He and Li Fengfan, who had recovered from their previous sluggishness, also set off together, one left and one right, respectively, and attacked together with Li Xiaoran in front of Li Yi in a triangular trend.
However, in the face of the simultaneous attack of the three people, there was also a Li Xiaoran of the Refining Essence Realm, in this case, Li Yi at this time did not choose to retreat, but quickly met the heavy sword shadows.
This made Li Xiaoran's eyes happy, and secretly said that Li Yi was looking for death.
But soon, the joy in Li Xiaoran's eyes all dissipated, and turned into a thick shock.
In the midst of the three of them, a strange scene appeared.
At this time, Li Yi's whole person was like a tender willow branch swaying in a storm, allowing Li Xiaoran's three sword shadows to form an almost impermeable sword net in the air, but Li Yi was like a leisurely stroll, avoiding the Dao sword marks in the air dangerously and dangerously.
In the maple leaf forest, several guards on the tree of Li Yi's four people who were fighting below to supervise the hunt and ensure the safety of the prince were also shocked when they looked at Li Yi's behavior at this time.
Facing the three of them at the same time, Li Yi didn't draw his sword, but just made all the attacks miss by just moving his pace, which was no less than dancing on the tip of the knife to find death.
You must know that now Li Xiaoran and the three of them are attacking with all their might, and the attacks are all at the key points, even if they are hit, even if they don't die, they will be seriously injured! Who would dare to do this if they were ordinary people?
At this point, these guards hidden on the side also admired Li Yi's courage in some cases, and at the same time, they also secretly muttered in their hearts: "Crazy!" At the same time, they were nervous, ready to save Li Yi when he couldn't bear it.
One minute
Two minutes
However, a full ten minutes passed, and Li Yi at this time was still intact as before, and there was not even a trace of confusion in his breathing, which also made the guards more and more shocked, and the idea of originally preparing to rescue Li Yi also quietly dispersed.
Similarly, as time passed, the hearts of Li Xiaoran and the three of them, who had been constantly attacking, became colder and colder.
