Chapter 52: Heading to Qingyang City
Half an hour later, Zhou Shang's temporary station.
"Damn! Your master is really so strong, is he so handsome, isn't he? Why is your luck so good?" Zhou Shang listened to Xue Yi's "thrilling" narration in a daze, and the tea sprayed all over the ground, and the loud voice immediately made Xue Yi find the feeling of the past.
"Don't you get excited, okay?" Xue Yi drank his tea with a calm face, "Although he left in the end, the combat skills and body skills he passed on to me are enough to make me invincible in the same rank, just like you and I fought before." If it weren't for your broken net that overshadowed me at the end, you wouldn't even be able to touch the corners of my clothes. As soon as he thought of this, Xue Yi became angry.
"Okay, okay, didn't I think you weren't human......"
"You're not human, your whole family is not human!" Xue Yi was so angry that he hiccuped.
"Calm down, I mean, then you are the ultimate light attribute that you can cultivate now?" Zhou Shang was helpless.
Xue Yi put down the tea bowl heavily: "That's right." After that, I spent several months in the mountains, honing my master's ability to pass on to me. Hmph, along the way, none of the second-order demonic beasts that died in my hands were a one-handed technique, and the first-order demonic beasts were even more numerous. Oh, I just fought against a third-order demonic beast a few days ago, and I stole these things by the way. ”
Xue Yi took out a straw basket from behind him and threw it to Zhou Shang.
"This is ......" Zhou Shang opened the straw basket suspiciously, and when he saw the contents of the basket clearly, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. Hold up an elixir and take a closer look. Although he didn't know much about this aspect, he could also see that this elixir that exuded strong fluctuations in combat power was not an ordinary thing!
"God, Xue Yi, what kind of heavenly treasures have you stolen! Look at this, I have seen this elixir at the annual Qingyang auction in Qingyang City. What is it called...... Xuanyuan Qiankun Grass, at that time, it was auctioned for a sky-high price of 300,000 gold coins!"
"What, so expensive!" Xue Yi was also taken aback. You must know that a second-order weapon is only the price of tens of thousands of gold coins, and this elixir is 300,000, so seven elixirs ...... Isn't it two million gold coins?
"You're rich, Xue Yi, you're developed this time. Zhou Shang was amazed while observing the elixir one by one.
Xue Yi breathed a long sigh of relief and tried to calm his surging mood. Two million gold coins...... After that, it was really developed.
"That's right!" Zhou Shang suddenly remembered something, put the grass basket to the side, and looked at Xue Yi with wide eyes, "You said you fought against a third-level demonic beast?"
"Yes, and it's a third-order top demonic beast, the Akame Mammoth. Damn, my life was almost delivered. Xue Yi shook his head and said with palpitations.
Zhou Shang looked at him with a strange gaze with his mouth half-open, which made Xue Yi feel uncomfortable.
"I said, what's wrong with you?"
"It's insane. Xue Yi, do you know, if this matter is true, you can survive from a third-order top-notch demonic beast with the strength of the fifth layer of the Spirit Rhino Realm alone...... You are enough to become the first day talent of this Qingyang City. Zhou Shang was shocked in his heart. To be honest, listening to Xue Yi's blood-boiling battles and experiences, he was also a little fascinated in his heart. Although he now has the strength of the sixth layer of the Spirit Rhino Realm under the full cultivation of the people of Zhou Mansion, he is still much inferior to Xue Yi in terms of combat experience. He also knew that Xue Yi had a lot of hands left for his temptation before, if Xue Yi really went all out, although his combat power level was higher, the chance of winning the latter might not exceed thirty percent.
"Of course it's true! There are also five second-order top-notch demonic beasts besieging me together! If it weren't for my strange speed and stealing those things, I wouldn't have died there!"
"Really...... Perverted!" Zhou Shang could only make this comment indignantly.
"By the way, why did you come here? You should know that my grandfather lives here, right?" Finally getting rid of the previous topic, Xue Yi hurriedly spoke. He really didn't want to deceive Zhou Shang with lies anymore.
"Isn't that what it is? My dad had actually sent a dozen of them to guard here. The size of this kind of village is very small, and even if there is a beast tide, the scale will not be too large. They are all good at building more than five layers of foundations, and it is enough to have them. I knew that you and my grandfather might both be here, so I persuaded my father to let me come here. I didn't expect to meet your grandfather, but he said that you left here a few months ago. But since I'm here, I'm going to stay here for the time being, and I'll be the leader of their team. Before you came, we had repelled a tide of beasts of about a hundred beasts. Without the presence of Warcraft, and with the help of the men in the village, the victory was easy. But I was afraid that they did not really retreat, but waited for an opportunity to attack again, so I led people to constantly patrol the area. But by now, the brutes should have retreated. ”
"That's ......" Xue Yi was slightly moved in his heart, but he didn't say anything, but asked, "How is Zhou Zhen and Qingyang City?"
Zhou Shang's expression froze for a moment, and he said, "It's not optimistic." Because Zhou Zhen has been run by my Zhou family for many years, and it is not the focus of the beast tide's attack, it is safe and sound. But the situation in Qingyang City is not optimistic. A group of beast tides composed of only tens of thousands of beasts and demonic beasts had surrounded there, and the high-level combat power of my Zhou family and the other three major families had all gathered there to resist the attack of the beast tide. Fortunately, the Qingyang city wall is extremely strong, and my father has already asked for support from the capital Tianluo City. As long as you hold on until the powerhouses of Qitianluo City come to help, there should be no problem. ”
Xue Yi nodded. It was about the same as he expected. He could imagine how terrifying it would be for tens of thousands of beasts to swoop down at the same time. Fortunately, the four major families have a deep heritage, and each family has more than one master of the Sky Realm, which can hold Qingyang City.
"Xue Yi. Zhou Shang said softly.
"Huh?" Xue Yi was pondering, and immediately raised his head when he heard his voice.
"I want to go to Qingyang City. Zhou Shang looked directly into Xue Yi's eyes and spoke.
"Are you going to Qingyang City?" Xue Yi was stunned, "How can you do that?" Now that it is surrounded by demonic beasts, even if you go, what is there to enter the city?"
That's why my father didn't let me go. He said that I was still young, my strength was not enough, and Qingyang City was too dangerous. Even I came here and begged him again and again to agree. I know it's because he loves me and is afraid that I'll get hurt because of it. And he took the eldest brother and the second brother with him. They can go into battle to kill the enemy and test themselves in battle, so why can't I? I'm not weak!"
Xue Yi was stunned, and when he saw the stubbornness and desire bursting out of Zhou Shang's eyes, he couldn't help but move in his heart. Yes, outsiders only saw that the Lord of the Zhou Mansion regarded Zhou Shang as the pearl in his palm, but they didn't know that his heart had always longed for a battle to prove himself. His father's affirmation of him can only convince the people around him, and his own achievements can convince others.
"Okay, if you're really determined to go, I'll accompany you!" Xue Yi's eyes were blazing, and he nodded at him.
"You agreed?" Zhou Shang said when he heard this, but it was a little incredible. He actually just wanted to complain to Xue Yi, but he didn't expect that the latter would really be willing to accompany him to that dangerous battlefield without hesitation.
"You are my little son, you are going, how can I not accompany you? I know that you want to prove yourself in front of your father, then do it, only if you make something yourself, can everyone be impressed by you. Xue Yi smiled.
"You are really my good brother!" Zhou Shang hugged Xue Yi excitedly and said excitedly.
"Alright. Since you are going, then leave immediately. In any case, the surroundings of Qingyang City must be extremely dangerous now. If we want to rush into Qingyang City, it will be difficult to reach the sky, and we must plan well in advance to succeed. Otherwise, if we fall into the encirclement of wild beasts, we will both die. Xue Yi said solemnly.
"Well, this matter needs to be considered in the long run. We rushed there first, watched the situation, and waited for the opportunity to act. Zhou Shang also nodded.
Xue Yi stood up, his expression moved, and he spoke: "But before that, I still have to say goodbye to my grandfather first, and let him know that my situation is fine." ”
"I'll go with you!"
Xue Yi quickly said goodbye to his grandfather. Although he was about to leave when he came back, his grandfather didn't hold back too much, but just told them to be careful all the way. Similarly, Xue Yi and Zhou Shang were able to leave with peace of mind, also because the beast tide here had just been repelled by Zhou Shang and them, and now even if they left, there were still more than a dozen warriors guarding here, and they didn't have to worry about the safety here.
Walking out of the village, the two immediately rode on their horses. If it was only Xue Yi himself, he would naturally use his legs to hurry. Although the horses are fast, they are still a little worse than their own speed. However, now with Zhou Shang, Zhou Shang's speed is far inferior to his own, so he has to use the user's horses to do it for him. Xue Yi accompanied the latter.
"Drive-" A crisp whip sounded in the silent mountain forest. On the road in the mountains, the two of them rode horses and galloped towards the horizon in the distance.
