Chapter 17: The Southern Covenant

Cold Spirit City, City Lord's Mansion

In the middle of the majestic and beautiful hall, a middle-aged man is sitting in danger. The man was dressed in a magnificent robe, with a gilded jade crown on his head, and his jet-black black hair cascading down his shoulders. Tiger eyes, wide nose bridge, a majestic atmosphere. This person is the city lord of Cold Spirit City, Han Qi, whose strength is in the realm of "Battle Spirit Rank Early Triple Stage", and at this time he is concentrating on deliberating the papers.

"Report....!" Outside the City Lord's Mansion, a herald ran into the main hall at a gallop.

"Lord Qiyu City, Shui Lianggong, the city lord of Shuiyou City, has led an army of 100,000 to camp thirty kilometers away from Xiaochi Town. The herald hurriedly reported

"What! It turned out to be Shui Lianggong personally commanding the soldiers, it seems that the old man is really immortal... Delusional 100,000 troops swallowing my Cold Spirit City, really underestimate me!" Han Qi threw the Chinese roll in his hand on the table in front of him, and angrily slapped the case.

"Pass the order, order Xiahou Feng to defend Xiaochi Town, and wait for the city lord to lead the troops to increase the number of troops!"

"Command!" After receiving the order, the herald quickly withdrew from the main hall of the city hall and galloped away.

In the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, the two generals who were respectfully waiting on the side of the stage were surprised when they saw the City Lord Hanqi issuing this order, and then they exhorted one after another.

"By all means, Lord of the City, this matter is not trivial, and I hope that Lord City Lord will think twice. The last general is not talented, I am willing to go and capture the old horseman of Shui Lianggong for the lord of the city!" a burly man in bronze armor with a rough voice admonished. This person is one of the generals under the command of the Cold Banner, Bafa, whose strength is in the "Eightfold in the Late Tomahawk Stage".

"General Ba is reasonable, that Shui Lianggong dared to personally lead an army of 100,000 to come, presumably there was fraud in it, and asked the city lord to think twice. Another slender young man with a handsome face in a purple gauze robe followed suit. And this person is one of the spirit generals under the command of the Cold Banner, Liu Bingwei, whose strength is in the "Late Nine Layers of Tomahawk Level".

"Two generals, needless to say, the city lord has made up his mind. Shui Lianggong's old horseman now dares to bully the 100,000 army, if I don't fight, I'm afraid that he won't succeed!" There are always bumps and bumps between the Cold Spirit City and the Water Ghost City, and the Cold Banner is also unbearable. Now that we can take this opportunity to solve it together, we naturally can't ask for it.

"Since the Lord of the Castle has made up his mind, the last general is willing to go with the Lord of the City to ensure the safety of the Lord of the City. Seeing that Hanqi was determined to send troops in person, Liu Bingwei retreated and admonished.

"The last general is willing to go with him!" General Bafa also stepped forward and said.

"Okay, let's go to meet the old man of Shui Lianggong and see what tricks he plays. Han Qi readily agreed.

A few hundred kilometers away from Hanling City, Xiaochi Town in southern Xinjiang

On the hilly slopes of the mountains and snow, Shui Lianggong, the city lord of Shuiyou City, led 100,000 elite soldiers and the 70,000 troops led by Han Qi, the city lord of Hanling City, confronted each other. With sideburns like clouds, he stood in front of the formation with nine green cloud thorns in his hand, and his style was extraordinary. He made no secret of the strength of the "Battle Soul Level Early Triple".

And Han Qi was wearing a dark purple robe, a dark blue tiger stripe leather belt tied around his waist, flowing hair, and a pair of clear and bright tiger eyes. The strength aura of the "Battle Soul Level Early Triple" around him is also not to be outdone.

"Hahaha... Brother Han, when Pengqiao said goodbye, don't come unharmed for decades?" Shui Liang Gong Ma Jun greeted with a smile.

"Shui Lianggong, don't talk about it, what do you mean by leading an army of 100,000 today, I don't think it's as simple as coming to catch up on the old days, right?"

"What are you talking about, Brother Han is here today to catch up on the old days, and I want to talk about cooperation with Brother Han, I wonder if Brother Han is willing to take a step to speak?" Shui Lianggong still smiled and said with a smile on his face, and gave Han Qi a look.

"Oh, it's so fresh. There's nothing to talk about between you and me, so I think this cooperation is still free. Han Qi waved his hand impatiently and replied unappreciatively.

"Brother Han, don't refuse Liang's heart so quickly, isn't Brother Han interested in the 'Millennium Treasure' at all...?" Shui Lianggong threw out the bait without concealing it, but the words were gripping.

Hearing the words "thousand-year-old treasure", Han Qi's calm eyes lit up, and his heartbeat vibrate. Somewhat puzzled, he asked, "What does Brother Shui Liang mean by this?"

"Hahaha... It's not a secret, Liang came here today to discuss this thousand-year-old treasure with Brother Han, if Brother Han is interested, we might as well get off the horse and go to the tent to discuss it carefully?"

The cold flag on horseback bowed his head slightly and thought: Although it cannot be ruled out that this is a conspiracy of Shui Lianggong, but the temptation of thousand-year-old treasures is huge, not to mention that there are 70,000 troops behind him. Although the other party has an army of 100,000, but at the cost of fighting the same fate, Shui Lianggong does not dare to do anything to himself, so he might as well go and listen to what he wants to say.

"Well, as you say. After a moment of decision, Han Qi happily turned over and dismounted. The three lieutenant generals around him also followed closely and walked into the camp tent set up by Shui Lianggong in front of the army.

In the tent in front of the army, there is a spacious wooden table.

Shui Lianggong and Han Qi sat on both sides, Shui Lianggong spread out a territory map on the table, and after Han Qi quietly looked at the map, he asked puzzledly: "What is going on with the thousand-year-old treasure cooperation that Brother Shui Liang just said?"

"Hahaha... Brother Han, don't worry, wait for me to talk about it in detail. Brother Han, please look here, as far as I know, this thousand-year-old treasure is buried in the Far East Domain on the border of your and my city. This place is a thousand-year-old winter, uninhabited, and its territory spans thousands of miles, and it does not belong to the jurisdiction of any city-state. But if you want to get here, you have to pass through the snowy mountains where you and I meet. Shui Lianggong said this, stopping and looking sideways at Hanqi. At this moment, Han Qi stared at the map with solemn eyes, his eyebrows tightly locked, and his hands on his cheeks.

"Brother Shui Liang, is this news reliable?" for a long time, Han Qi asked half-incredulously.

"Exactly!" replied Mizura with an oath.

"Since Brother Shui Liang is so sure, then why do you have to discuss this treasure matter with me?" Han Qi didn't believe that Shui Lianggong was so kind and willing to tell himself about this treasure land so easily. Although I don't know where Shui Lianggong got the treasure news, he has always eaten alone.

"Brother Han doesn't know, this snowy mountain is full of flying insects and beasts, and it is extremely dangerous, and the place where the thousand-year-old treasure is buried is probably full of evil spirits. It is really difficult for a certain person to eat, and I think that you and my brother have known each other for many years, so I want to discuss with Brother Han to get this wealth together. Shui Lianggong spoke sincerely and earnestly, and his words were deep and emotional.

After listening to Shui Lianggong's heartfelt words, Han Qi nodded slightly, although he didn't believe it, he knew that the snowy mountains were extremely dangerous, and what was even more dangerous was the place where the thousand-year-old treasure was buried, and it was indeed impossible for Shui Lianggong to swallow the treasure alone.

The so-called "thousand-year-old treasure": refers to seven thousand years ago, the gods on the continent of the human race, the immortal race, the water tribe, the human race and other clans jointly resisted the invasion of the demon race, the demon race, the witch race, the beast race and other foreign alliances. Some of them have absorbed a huge aura and become more powerful, and the damaged treasures naturally cannot withstand the passage of time and weather, but if they are preserved, they are even more extraordinary, and countless people are eager to flock to them.

However, the land of treasure naturally has countless souls who have died in battle and have deep grievances, which have not dispersed for thousands of years and turned into evil spirits and ghosts, guarding the land of the ancient battlefield, wantonly devouring the spiritual cultivators who broke into the treasure theft. So the land of thousand-year-old treasures: as great as the opportunity, as deep as the danger!

Seeing that Han Qi fell into silent thinking and had no objection, Shui Lianggong hit the railway while it was hot, "If we can get the treasure together this time, then finally assign me four to you six, I wonder if Brother Han can be satisfied?" Shui Lianggong smiled and a trace of cunning flashed in his eyes, which was well covered.

"Brother Shui Liang's words are serious!?" After hearing the return, Han Qi kept his eyes on it and confirmed it seriously.

"You don't joke, if Brother Han doesn't believe it, I can make a covenant here. "Shui Lianggong pointed to the sky, and he swore steadily.

"That's... Since Brother Shui Liang is so sincerely invited, my Hanqi can't live up to Brother Tai's enthusiasm. Han is willing to cooperate with Brother Shui Liang and win this wealth together!" Han Qi stood up, walked in front of Shui Lianggong, and after some words, expressed his great intention to cooperate.

Subsequently, Shui Lianggong and Hanqi jointly made an agreement: it was agreed that each side would send 100,000 people to the Far East to find the thousand-year-old treasure, as well as the most important four or six shares.

After the agreement was completed, Hanqi left Xiahou Feng's 30,000 troops to guard Xiaochi Town, and he led the other horses to rush back to Hanling City to start deploying for this treasure hunt.

Cold Spirit City, in the City Lord's Mansion

"Lord of the City, is this treasure hunt a conspiracy of Shui Lianggong?" asked Liu Bingwei on the side, still a little uneasy.

"Hmph, whether it's his conspiracy or not, I want to see what kind of calculations he makes this time and what tricks he can play. This treasure hunt will be carried out by you and the wolf guards with the city lord, Xiahou Feng and Bafa will stay in Hanling City, and in addition, all the 40,000 slaves in the spirit mine will be transferred to join the 70,000 army, and 40,000 elite troops will be released to stay in the city!"

The 100,000 army of Shui Lianggong continued to be stationed outside Xiaochi Town, waiting for a round with the 100,000 army of the Han Banner.

"Why is the city lord willing to go treasure hunting with the cold banner, isn't he afraid that the cold banner will find the treasure and swallow it alone?" asked a personal lieutenant in confusion.

"Hehe, Hanqi is a man who is proud of himself and is stubborn and self-serving, there is such a person to open the way for us, why not? I just want to borrow his hand to confirm the specific location of the treasure. As for finding the treasure, whether he can get it or not is another matter. Shui Lianggong smiled at his personal Lingwei, looking full of confidence.

"If we can get this thousand-year-old treasure this time, then the strength of my Water Ghost City will be greatly improved, and I am expected to be among the "fourth-class county cities" of the Northern Tooth Empire, and then see who dares to worry about annexing my Water Shadow City!" Shui Lianggong said excitedly.

"The city lord is wise!" the adjutant general behind him admired and worshipped,

So an army of treasure hunting alliances with their own ghosts was formed, and as for the strength of this relationship, there was naturally no trust at all.
