Compared with Zuo Yi, a little girl who is a little messy, Anya is obviously much more courageous. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After entering the Upper Xuanjian Sect, she hardly rested, and immediately surveyed the topography of the sect with the other five people, and along the way, she had a good evaluation of the pros and cons of these terrains, which immediately made Lin Xue feel a little relieved.

It's just that what puzzled her a little was the equipment on the seven people in this line.

Each of the seven people present was using a holy sword of excellent texture, and was equipped with a variety of rare and sophisticated high-grade props. Those props aside, the top-grade holy sword used by everyone alone is a huge expense! One top-grade holy weapon per person, even if the Upper Xuanjian Sect didn't have it before receiving the Divine Yuan Crystal presented by the goddess of nature!

If this mercenary group has earned a lot of money from the previous tasks, it is understandable, but judging from the tasks that this mercenary group has received over the years...... This possibility is infinitely close to zero!

It seems that the origin of this mercenary group is not simple.

At present, the Upper Xuanjian Sect is in a critical period, and before Ling Yun is out of the customs, in order to ensure that the sect has a good protective force, Lin Xue and the others have to temporarily bury the idea of changing a mercenary group in their hearts.

On the third day of the mercenary group's entry, it immediately had a certain performance.

A large number of spies from several major sects who were ambushed around to inquire about the situation were all captured alive under the attack of a holy sword master, and after some stern confession, they immediately learned an important clue - knowing that the Heavenly Summoning Sect of the Shangxuan Sword Sect had a thousand high-grade spars, it was indeed a group of holy sword masters who planned to launch an attack on the Shangxuan Sword Sect, if it weren't for the sudden intervention of the Melody Mercenary Group, they temporarily slowed down the attack plan before they found out the details, and now they are afraid that the deadline for the general attack has arrived.

In the face of this result, Lin Xue and the others had no choice but to ask the Melody Mercenary Group to defend with their hearts!

In the following days, more and more sects in the surrounding area were bewitched by the Heavenly Summoning Sect and joined the ranks of looking for trouble with the Upper Xuanjian Sect, and at the same time, some people had already begun to gather to put pressure on the Melody Mercenary Group, in a vain attempt to force the Melody Mercenary Group to give up the task of guarding the Upper Xuanjian Sect.

As time went on, in the end, those sects seemed to have received instructions from Hanchen in secret, and they turned from words to hands.

A month after the Upper Xuanjian Sect invited the Melody Mercenary Group, after all, through the information department of the Melody Mercenary Group, I learned through the information department of the Melody Mercenary Group that there were six major sects in Tianzhaomen, and in response to the call, they gathered four eighth-order holy sword masters, twenty-four seventh-order holy sword masters, and hundreds of sword-level sect members gathered in the gate!

The other party came with such a strong lineup, and the leader of the melody mercenary group, who had always been safe, couldn't help but be a little unable to sit still, and immediately found Lin Xue, the head of the family, and persuaded: "Your faction has now revealed its wealth, if you want to overcome many hardships and dangers, it has become very difficult to stay in the Fog Suppression Mountain safely, even if you rely on our strength to repel the great enemy today, when we leave, they will inevitably make a comeback." Speaking of this, Anya paused, and said with some hesitation: "I think that there are only a dozen or twenty people in the Gui faction, and the establishment of the sect has not cost much effort, and at the moment of the great enemy, the wisest thing to do is to abandon the sect and leave, find a hidden place and start over, or simply join other large forces to seek refuge, so that the upcoming bloody disaster can be resolved." ”

Although Anya's words somewhat looked down on the Xuanjian Sect, Lin Xue also knew that she was doing this for the good of the Xuanjian Sect, after all, if she fought hard, it was definitely the Xuanjian Sect that would suffer.

Merely...... The reason why they were reluctant to fight with these sects was not because they were afraid of these sects, but because they didn't want to disturb Ling Yun's retreat, once they were disturbed...... Isn't everything you did before, including inviting the Melody Mercenary Group, in vain?

Thinking of this, Lin Xue shook her head: "Head Anya, everything you are facing at the moment depends on you." If there is any need, we in the Xuan Sword Sect will definitely do our best to provide it for you. ”

"Twenty-eight Holy Sword Masters, including four eighth-order powerhouses, with the power of my ninth-order and the sisters in the group, they can indeed defeat them in the end, but ......"

Lin Xue thought that the price given before was too low, and hurriedly said: "We can redo the negotiation on the price." ”

"No, Your Excellency Lin Xue misunderstood what I meant. Since they have taken over the task of your faction and defended eight hundred spars a year, the Melody Mercenary Group will naturally carry it out. It's just that, I want to ask the last question, do you really want to defend like this all the time?"

"What do you mean by ...... Chief"

Anya said this, and bowed slightly: "Here, I apologize to your faction first. ”

"Apologize?"

Anya glanced in the direction of the mountain behind the Xuanjian Sect, and said with some meaning: "Although we dare not say that the survey instrument used by our melody mercenaries is the most advanced in the entire universe, it is at least one of the most advanced props in the Central Star......!

Lin Xue's face changed slightly: "Your Excellency, didn't I say in advance that the back mountain is the forbidden land of my Xuanjian Sect, and no one is allowed to enter it, are you ......?"

Anya hurriedly shook her hand and explained, "Your Excellency Lin Xue, you misunderstood, we didn't enter your sect's forbidden land, we just walked around the neighborhood. Speaking of this, she saw that Lin Xue's face was a little unkind, and added, "I know what Your Excellency Lin Xue is worried about. Please rest assured that we will not divulge half a word on this matter. ”

"You found out?"

Anya nodded: "On the survey props, it is true that there are traces of energy left by the Divine Yuan Crystal in that area. ”

"Crystal of the Divine Element. Lin Xue was slightly stunned in her heart, she thought that these people had disturbed him by discovering the location of her brother's retreat.

Anya didn't notice the abnormality on Lin Xue's face, and asked cautiously, "Can you take the liberty of asking, which major force is represented behind your faction?"

"The power of the representative ......" a flash of light suddenly flashed in Lin Xue's mind.

The members of the Melody Mercenary Group are extremely qualified, the instruments and props at the top of the planet, and the attitude that doesn't care about the hedrons...... If it is assumed that they are pawns of other forces to fight into the Fog Containment Mountain, all this seems to be easy to explain.

Thinking of this, the thoughts in Lin Xue's mind had already turned like lightning, and after a while, he asked rhetorically: "Just from the Divine Yuan Crystal, it is easy to judge that there is a large force behind my Xuanjian Sect, it is too arbitrary." ”

Listening to these words in the hearts of those who have a heart, they naturally have a double meaning.

"Hehe, it looks like Your Excellency is planning to test me. Since a large number of them are the same kind of people, it doesn't hurt to say this secret, which is not a secret between the major forces. ”

"I want to hear about it!"

"The true quality of the pure Divine Yuan Crystal, the value is beyond your imagination. No large force would take it out and sell it after obtaining the Divine Yuan Crystal, creating batches of Holy Sword Master-level powerhouses. And what is sold must be those inferior products that are of inferior quality, or even can only be regarded as the best spar. Using these things, not only will the cultivation effect be greatly reduced, but also the breakthrough of the Holy Rank will not be even considered. And according to the energy purity I have detected, the Divine Yuan Crystal used by your faction definitely belongs to the real Divine Yuan Crystal!" Speaking of this, Anya's tone was a little envious: "These should be the task rewards given by your forces, judging from the fact that you actually used them to create cultivation holy lands, there must be more than one, and your forces seem to be really extraordinary." ”

Lin Xue immediately became vigilant: "This matter should have nothing to do with you." ”

"Hehe, Your Excellency Lin Xue, don't be nervous. No one can easily offend such a large number of representatives of a party. Speaking of this, she still had a tentative tone: "It seems that Your Excellency Lin Xue has just taken over the task." Since both of us have just accepted the task of the above-mentioned people, come to the Eastern Continent to stabilize a base area, and then use this as a springboard to enter this place, then why not work together first? Common development? You contribute money, we contribute, not to mention sweeping the fog and suppressing the mountain, at least for the time being, it is not a problem to create a piece of heaven and earth. As long as there is performance, as soon as those leaders are happy, they will inevitably give rewards again to enhance our strength, and when the time comes, ......"

Hearing this, Lin Xue suddenly figured out a question, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

It's no wonder that they went to the Xuanjian Sect to hire a mercenary group with a ninth-order holy sword master for just eight hundred spars! In fact, this was not their luck, but a premeditated plan. This melody mercenary group simply wants to control the Xuanjian Sect through this matter!

At present, the life and death of the Upper Xuan Sword Sect are almost entirely in the hands of the Melody Mercenary Group, if they are not temporarily attached to them, I am afraid that in the end, they will only be destroyed by the enemy! If it weren't for themselves and the others being misunderstood by them as subordinates of a certain big force, so that they would not dare to act rashly for the time being, otherwise...... Lure the wolf into the house!

In such a hostile place as the Central Star competitive environment, how could Zuo Yi's naïve surname survive? If she guessed correctly, I am afraid that that kind of naivety, as well as the statement that Anya had just broken through the ninth order, were all false, and their purpose was to dispel the vigilance of their employers.

And the low-level tasks they took on earlier...... Although those tasks are low-level, now that I think about it, they all have one thing in common - urgency, and the employer must do it, if they do not invite the mercenary group to complete that task, it will cause them immeasurable losses!

It's like the head of a small sect looking for an herb to save his wife's life. That kind of herb grows in a place that is extremely difficult for ordinary great swordsmen, even if they wait for the idle holy swordsman to go, there is a certain danger! However, that kind of herb is one of the necessities to save lives, if there is no such herb, if he delays it again, his wife will definitely die! In order to save his wife's surname, it is estimated that the head of that small faction has already given up everything, and the sect may also secretly fall under the control of the melody mercenary group.

When he saw this task, he also felt that the people of the Melody Mercenary Group were really kind, and they went to help a mere great sword master with the respect of several holy sword masters, and now he ......, "Your Excellency Lin Xue, I don't know what you think about?"

...... If you move out of Lingyun, all the problems in front of you will be solved very easily.

But...... Including Lin Xue, Lin Shuilan and others, they all have an idea to really do some practical things without disturbing Ling Yun, so as to prove their value as a person - they are not just a burden.

Thinking of this, Lin Xue raised her head, and the glint in her eyes showed that she had already made a decision: "What kind of cooperation method." ”

Seeing the play, Anya's eyes lit up, and she immediately rejoiced: "Your Excellency Lin Xue is really a courageous person, no wonder you will entrust this arduous task to you." As she spoke, she hurriedly said, "The Eastern Continent is countless times more chaotic than other Northwest Continents. Moreover, the super masters in the Western and Northern Continents can't be bought with money, but in the Eastern Continent, the Sword Masters and Great Sword Masters under the Holy Sword Master are not worth anything at all. As long as Your Excellency has sufficient financial resources, we will immediately go and buy a group of loyal disciples, train them in military methods, and use them exclusively for foreign warfare! Anyway, this kind of purchased disciple will die when he dies, and there is no pity about it, at most it will consume some money. ”

"Financial resources...... Lin Xue nodded: "I can do it, so what should you do? Since it is cooperation, naturally both of us have contributed." ”

"That's nature. Anya immediately nodded in agreement: "Before that, can I ask you how many Divine Yuan Crystals you have given you to use to act!"

Considering the terrifying scheming of the people of this melody mercenary group, Lin Xue still said safely after all: "Your Excellency, these sons should have found out from the mouth of the disciple, although I am the nominal sect master of the Xuanjian Sect, but above me, there is also the Guardian Sect Elder! ”

"Protector Elder!"

Anya was originally a little suspicious that the great force would actually send a seventh-order holy sword master to complete such an important task, but now when she heard it, she understood. I have wasted so many lips and tongues, and I haven't seen the protagonist yet.

"Exactly. The Sect Master gave us a total of five Divine Yuan Crystals, one of which was created by us as a cultivation holy land, and the other in exchange for a large amount of money. The remaining three were all on the Guardian Elders. ”

"Oh, in that case, Your Excellency Lau Linxue has asked the elders of your Guardian Sect to come out and see you. ”

Lin Xue pretended to sigh lightly and said, "If the Guardian Sect Elder is still here at the moment, how can we be afraid of just one Heavenly Summoning Sect, even if the four factions come out at this moment, they still won't be taken seriously." It's just that the elder has already gone out to do business recently, and we can't contact us at all, so I don't know how to return. In order to keep the settled industry of the Shangxuan Sword Sect, I had to go to the Mercenary Guild and invite your group to come to help. ”

Anya secretly pondered, "The four factions come out together, but they still won't take it seriously." These words, but seeing the trace of extreme confidence and admiration unintentionally revealed between Lin Xue's eyebrows when she said this, she knew that this was true. Against the twenty-eight Holy Sword Masters, the Ninth Order Holy Sword Master was indeed able to do it, but he was absolutely not sure that he would not take them seriously.

If you want to easily kill the twenty-eight Holy Sword Master powerhouses, the strength of the other party ...... It's definitely Juggernaut!

Juggernaut!

Thinking of this, Anya quickly cleaned up the previous thoughts of borrowing a knife to kill people!

The matter of the Shangxuan Sword Sect inviting them to the melody mercenary group to assist in the defense, there is a mercenary union as a witness, even if they want to clear up this matter, it is extremely difficult, once they really use the hands of the four factions to destroy the Shangxuan Sword Sect, and when the elders of the Guardian Sect arrive, they will definitely track it down to themselves and others.

Hunted down by a Juggernaut...... It will definitely ruin the big things of yourself and others.

At this time, Lin Xue had already taken the initiative to ask: "Your Excellency, I don't know what kind of cooperation method this cooperation is?"

Anya sorted out the thoughts in her heart, and after considering the reversal of their strengths, she said: "Buying a sword master is only an expedient measure after all! As long as you develop a jurisdiction and lead your disciples, you can make a powerful sect pass on." Therefore, my plan is to expand in all directions, swallow up all the surrounding small factions step by step, and make myself stronger, and then start preparing for the next move!"

"Annexation. Lin Xue frowned slightly.

The annexation of a sect is not as simple as a sect war, after the annexation of a sect, there must be a large number of people to manage it, and what the Upper Xuanjian Sect lacks is just manpower! You must know that the current Upper Xuanjian Sect, including Ling Yun and Lin Ruoruo, is only forty-six people. Among the forty-six people, the subordinates and maids account for eighteen places, and those who are really available, but only twenty-six people, twenty-six people, supporting a sect is already shabby, if they are allowed to govern other sects...... "If a sect wants to develop, the number of people is indispensable." Only a large population base can create a large number of masters. It's like a pyramid of growth, the masters are piled up into the top masters, and finally a sect is booming. The so-called beginning of everything is difficult, when a sect supports the most difficult stage in the early stage and prospers, the next development will inevitably become much smoother. Not only will there be a steady stream of countless masters coming from all directions, but the tribute crystals collected from small sects are also enough to maintain the continuing expenses of a sect. As long as it can survive the suppression of other forces, the cycle of good surnames continues, and the rise of a super force is already in sight. ”

"The reason why you cooperate with me is because of the funds. Because of the lack of funds, we can't recruit the first batch of masters and disciples to serve!"

"Exactly. In the central star where interests are paramount, as long as there is enough start-up capital and a certain number of top masters, it is absolutely easy to recruit middle and lower-level masters. Speaking of this, Anya opened her hand with a blank hand, as if she had unfolded a magnificent picture scroll with her own hands: "Ninth-order, eighth-order, and seventh-order holy sword masters, huge hidden forces, a steady stream of funds, and the sword saint of your faction." We have everything, and what we need now is such an opportunity for development! Right now, the opportunity has been placed in front of you, as long as you grasp it well, a large sect that is not inferior in scale to the Wanghai faction will quickly rise from the fog to curb the mountain!"

"A large sect...... Develop the Shangxuan Sword Sect into a large sect......"

I have to admit that Anya does have a certain talent, even Lin Xue, who originally just wanted to protect herself and was committed to it, was also said to be heartbroken.

If he can really develop the sect to the level of the Wanghai Sect, and have a Sword Saint and hundreds of Holy Sword Masters, it will definitely be a great help for both his brother and himself at that time! Not to mention anything else, at least he won't be annoyed by a few seventh- and eighth-order Holy Sword Masters like he is now!

"The world you have constructed is indeed very beautiful. However, we contribute money, and you, only temporarily, can share so many benefits. Even if we agree this time, once I return as an elder of the Xuanjian Sect's Guardian Sect......"

Anya obviously expected that her side had too few chips, and hurriedly said: "If Master Lin doesn't give up, I can lead the seven sisters of my melody mercenary group to join the Shangxuan Sword Sect together, become a member of the sect, and wait for the dispatch! ”

The current Shangxuan Sword Sect has not yet obtained a corner of the Fog Containment Mountain, even if she promised Anya to give her one-third of the Fog Containment Mountain, what she issued was just a blank check. Such a cheap one that makes a lot of money and doesn't take advantage of it.

"Okay, if you join my Xuanjian Sect and wholeheartedly assist our faction to seize the hegemony of the Fog Containment Mountain, he will say that it will be done, and I will set aside one-third of the Fog Containment Mountain for you!"

A hint of joy flashed in Anya's eyes, and she hurriedly said: "Since Your Excellency Lin Xue agrees, let's go back, discuss the details, draw up the contract, and then go to the branch hall of the Supreme Divine Temple, and make the contract effective under the witness of the Supreme Law." ”

Lin Xue nodded!

After the two dispersed, Lin Xue immediately found Lin Shuilan, explained to her the whole story, and discussed the matter with her.

Although Lin Shuilan knew that there might be a conspiracy here, she didn't want to be a burden to her young master forever, so she finally thought about all the details, revised the loopholes in the contract, and accompanied Lin Xue to a branch of the Supreme Temple to sign this meaningful contract.

Due to the urgency of time, after the contract was signed, the three of them once again came to the famous talent trading market in the nearby city according to the path of the Melody Mercenary Group, and spent nearly 70,000 high-grade spars to buy a hundred potential sixth-order great sword masters!

All of these great swordsmen have lost their freedom and are restricted by the Supreme Law for various reasons, and they have to sell their lives in exchange for survival.

Due to the environment, the process established by the Great Sword Master of the Central Star is far inferior to that of other backward planets! Moreover, the Supreme Law gave them a glimmer of hope for survival - breaking through the Holy Order, and the restrictions disappeared!

Under this kind of motivation, in order to break through the Sword Saint one day and break free from the shackles of the supreme law, they had to endure the instructions of their master and do the things of the next people!

With the addition of these personnel and the melody mercenary group, the strength of the originally shabby and poor Shangxuan Sword Sect suddenly skyrocketed, if Lingyun is counted, the overall strength is enough to become a medium-sized faction in the Wanghai Sect area second only to the Wanghai Sect!

...... When the Upper Xuanjian Sect was closely preparing to start expanding, the men and horses of the Heavenly Summoning Sect had finally been integrated, and there were more than 300 Great Sword Masters and Holy Sword Masters in total, all of whom set off from the mountain gate and went to the Upper Xuanjian Sect to kill!

(To be continued)
