Brother 124: Not an enemy
Chapter 124
"Qiu Hu, you're crazy!"
Zhao Kuo waved his sword to resist Qiu Hu's attack and roared angrily:
"Do you know who Lao Tzu is? Elder Wu Qishan is my godfather! If you dare to do it to me, my godfather will definitely not spare you! ”
But Qiu Hu was still expressionless, and kept stabbing one shot after another like a machine.
There are many exercises in the Qingtian Sect, but there are very few people who practice guns, and Qiu Hu is one of them.
He shot like a dragon, and every time he attacked, he exerted all his strength, and Zhao Kuo, who had always been proud, became more and more ugly.
Coupled with the sneak attack by Qiu Hu just now, Zhao Kuo's move speed slowed down significantly, and it was a little difficult to resist Qiu Hu's attack.
Zhao Kuo's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly shouted to the hundred cronies and disciples who were watching the battle not far away:
"Don't you have eyes?! Let's go up together, stop this mad dog for Lao Tzu! ”
But a group of disciples didn't dare to step forward at all, not to mention that they could understand that if they continued to fight like this, Zhao Kuo would die first.
Once they got close, they were just cannon fodder, so they simply ignored Zhao Kuo's call and ran farther away.
"Bastard!" Zhao Kuo roared angrily: "Qiu Hu attacked me in front of you, if I die, will he let you go?!" ”
A group of disciples are not stupid, of course they know that Zhao Kuo is telling the truth, but so what, in the face of the Qiu Hu in the early stage of the Yuan Dan Realm, they don't have the courage to step forward at all!
At this time, Qiu Hu stabbed out with a shot, instantly breaking through Zhao Kuo's True Yuan defense, and the tip of the spear provoked a canopy of blood mist in front of Zhao Kuo's chest.
Zhao Kuo's face became more and more ugly, he knew that if he continued, he would really die.
For a while, Zhao Kuo didn't care about any face, he couldn't be arrogant anymore, he split the spear that came from the bombardment with a knife, turned around and fled quickly.
Qiu Hu originally came to kill Zhao Kuo, how could he give up.
He moved on his feet and chased after him.
Seeing the figures of the two disappear into the depths of the dense forest, the remaining hundred Qingtian Sect disciples didn't know what to do for a while.
One of them trembled:
"Do we want to catch up, if Uncle Zhao Kuo really has an accident, we are afraid that we will not survive."
One of the people next to him roared angrily:
"Qiu Hu doesn't want to live anymore! Instead of us accompanying Uncle Zhao Kuo to die here, it is better for us to return to Qingzhou now and report the betrayal of the tiger to the sect, so that at least there is a chance to avenge Elder Zhao Kuo!" ”
"yes!" Others chimed in, "We can't help if we stay, but we will be killed by Qiu Hu, and the truth will be sealed forever." ”
A group of people finally found an excuse for their cowardice, so they felt much more open-minded.
They turned around quickly, intending to take the boat back to Qingzhou.
But when they boarded the shipbuilding and planned to start the shipbuilding, they were horrified to find that all the True Yuan Stones on the ship's floor were actually gone! Not a single one left!
Their faces were pale, without the True Yuan Stone, the shipbuilding would have no power, and they couldn't row back to Qingzhou by manpower, right?
"Go upstairs on the boat brought by Qiu Hu!"
The next moment, a hundred people ran wildly on the surface of the sea, jumped and jumped onto the ship brought by Qiu Hu.
But this time they finally despaired.
Because the true yuan stones on this ship's floor are all gone.
A disciple who thought he was clever had his brain spinning rapidly, and suddenly shouted:
"It must be Qiu Hu and his accomplices, when he was fighting with Uncle Zhao Kuo, that accomplice took the opportunity to steal all the True Yuan Stones, this is to cut off our back road, they really plan to kill us and kill us."
"For a while, everyone was indignant."
This disciple, who thought he was wise, pondered for a moment, and suddenly said:
"For the sake of today, I can only pray that Uncle Zhao Kuo can survive, but this possibility is too small."
The person next to him hurriedly gave a suggestion, "Why don't we hide in the forest first, and when the next time the shipbuilding comes, we will identify ourselves, and then we can return to Qingzhou and report the matter to the sect as it is." ”
"Yes! So many of us haven't gone back, the sect will definitely be suspicious, and we will definitely send someone to look for it. ”
Almost without any hesitation, a hundred people jumped down from the ship's tower and ran into the dense forest quickly, but in the opposite direction of Zhao Kuo and Qiu Hu.
This is the disciple of the Qingtian Sect, who has the strength of the Qi Gathering Realm.
In a cave on a cliff.
Xiao Zhan looked at the pile of True Yuan Stones behind him, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.
It can be seen that the person named Zhao Kuo, as well as this hundred Qi Gathering Realm, are obviously coming for Yanlong City.
But why did the person named Qiu Hu in the back make a move on Zhao Kuo? Aren't they all all from Qingzhou Qingtian Sect?
Since he couldn't figure it out, Xiao Zhan didn't think about it anymore.
Seeing that the hundred disciples of the Qingtian Sect had completely lost their traces, Xiao Zhan jumped to the sea with hundreds of True Yuan Stones.
A moment later, the two shipyards were driven by Xiao Zhan to a bay thousands of miles away and hid in a reef cave.
Then Xiao Zhan returned again and began to absorb the energy in the True Yuan Stone as fast as he could.
A few hours later, thousands of True Yuan Stones were turned into powder.
Xiao Zhan's strength went further, and his strength in the later stage of the Qi Gathering Realm was completely stabilized.
It's just that Xiao Zhan didn't know that even a genius like Fang Yu would need at least two months to absorb the energy contained in so many True Yuan Stones, but Xiao Zhan only took a few hours.
Xiao Zhan was worried about the safety of Yanlong City, so he rushed towards the direction of Yanlong City, and his speed was extremely fast, like a black lightning flashing in the dense forest.
Of course, Xiao Zhan has also been observing the movements around him, if he is discovered by Zhao Kuo and that Qiu Hu, he may fall into a place of no return.
In fact, Zhao Kuo did flee in the direction of Yanlong City.
This was the only route in his hands, and since Fang Qunfeng and the others were able to travel back and forth along this route, it at least meant that this route was relatively safe.
Zhao Kuo knew very well in his heart that even if everyone spurned the Wasteland, if he dared to run rampant in the Wasteland, he might lose his life on this land.
He looked back at Qiu Hu, who was getting closer and closer to him, and roared:
"Qiu Hu, what the hell are you going to do! Stop and let's talk! ”
Qiu Hu still didn't say a word, the spear in his hand stabbed out violently, and the sharp gun intent instantly burst out, forming an illusory spear of more than ten meters, which was pierced on Zhao Kuo's ass the next moment.
Zhao Kuo snorted, gritted his teeth and sped up again.
Zhao Kuo's injuries were getting worse and worse, and the aura of the whole person was constantly declining, and he knew that he couldn't escape.
He simply stopped, clenched the ring-headed broadsword in his hand, and roared angrily at the tiger:
"You forced me, go die!"
As he spoke, Zhao Kuo violently threw out a milky white ball the size of an egg.
For the first time, Qiu Hu had a look in his eyes, and hurriedly pulled back, turned around and ran.
The next moment, the sound of earth-shattering explosions sounded in the dense forest.
Dozens of miles away.
Xiao Zhan's brows furrowed, feeling the shaking of the ground and the violent explosion coming from the air.
Not only that, but he could clearly see that the high mountain dozens of miles away suddenly turned bare, and black smoke like a mushroom cloud rose into the sky.
If it weren't for the fact that the Yanlong Kingdom's long-range attack weapons hadn't been in place yet, Xiao Zhan would have thought that this explosion was the Yanlong City attacking someone.
So, in today's wasteland, who is most likely to cause such a violent explosion?
There is a high probability that there are only Qiu Hu and Zhao Kuo.
This is obviously a big move, but who wins?
If it was Zhao Kuo who won, then Yanlong City would be in danger.
In order to get accurate information, Xiao Zhan's eyes lit up, and he rushed towards the direction where the explosion came from at full speed.
The distance of dozens of miles, for Xiao Zhan now, it takes a while to arrive.
When he saw the bare mountain in front of him up close, as well as the dust that filled the air, Xiao Zhan's face became more and more solemn.
He had fought with Fang Qunfeng, and he had also witnessed the battle between Zhao Kuo and Qiu just now, so he could be sure that the Yuan Dan Realm would definitely not be able to cause such great damage.
Then it must be Zhao Kuo or Qiu Hu who used some secret weapon.
Sure enough, Xiao Zhan hid behind a boulder, and clearly heard Zhao Kuo's arrogant and cold, murderous intent and angry voice:
"Qiu Hu, you forced me!"
Zhao Kuo roared angrily:
"If it weren't for my godfather giving me this Danhu Realm Initial Destruction Pearl, Lao Tzu would have really been planted in your hands today."
Hearing the words 'Falling Pearl', Xiao Zhan guessed in his heart that it should be the same as the Holy Meteorite, when the strong man fell, he blocked the true yuan of his whole body in the bones, and after the physical body was incinerated to form the Falling Pearl, which contained huge power.
Xiao Zhan's face was heavy.
Zhao Kuo won, and Yanlong City is in danger.
But just as Xiao Zhan was about to leave, another weak voice suddenly sounded:
"A Fall Pearl, in the early stage of the Danhu Realm, is really a waste to use on me."
"Hatred of the tiger! How can you still be alive! Zhao Kuo's voice was full of disbelief.
Not to mention that Qiu Hu was only in the early stage of the Yuan Dan Realm, even if he was at the peak of the Yuan Dan Realm, there was absolutely no chance that he would survive the explosion just now!
Unless, Qiu Hu is wearing some kind of armor!
Sure enough, the dust gradually dispersed, revealing a bloody tiger.
The cloth on his body had vanished, revealing a set of dark purple soft armor.
"Purple Spirit Soft Armor!" Zhao Kuo's face became extremely gloomy: "Isn't this the treasure that Fang Qunfeng's guy got decades ago?" How could it be on you!? ”
Qiu Hu didn't speak, but once again adjusted the true yuan in the group, and the spear in his hand glowed with a cold light.
"I see!" Zhao Kuo's eyes were blood-red, "It was Fang Qunfeng who asked you to kill me!" ”
"Qiu Hu, whatever benefits Fang Qunfeng promised to give you, I can give you double, triple, five, or ten times!"
"Not only that, but I can also make the decision to let you join my stepfather and be his cronies, this is also a rare opportunity for you, maybe you will have the opportunity to serve as the elder of our Qingtian Sect in the future."
Qiu Hu is not a person who talks much, he raised his spear, and his figure rushed to Zhao Kuo in a flash, and the tip of the spear pierced Zhao Kuo's heart.
Although Qiu Hu relied on the purple spirit soft armor and survived the explosion just now, it also caused him serious internal injuries.
This made the two stand at the same starting point again, and the balance of victory did not know which side it would turn towards.
Zhao Kuoneng became a master of the Yuan Dan Realm, so naturally he would not be afraid of fighting, and now that the two were evenly matched, he roared angrily, waved the ring-headed broadsword in his hand and fought with Qiu Hu.
For a while, a fierce wind blew on the bare mountain, rolling up the dust in the sky, and a muffled thunderous explosion continued to sound.
After a while, the aura of the two became more and more depressed, and there were more and more wounds on their bodies.
At one point, both of them fell to the ground at the same time, gasping for breath.
But the next moment, the two jumped up at the same time and bombarded each other again.
And Xiao Zhan hid not far away, watching the battle expressionlessly.
To some extent, the death of these two people together is the best result for Yanlong City.
But Zhao Kuo said something just now, it was Fang Qunfeng who asked Qiu Hu to kill him, and the reason behind this is worth careful consideration.
Almost instantly, Xiao Zhan figured it out.
It seems that Fang Qunfeng has already seen the play played by Fang Yu clearly, but he just didn't reveal the truth.
And he asked Qiu Hu to assassinate Zhao Kuo, naturally in order not to let the lie be exposed, but also to protect himself and Fang Yu.
Xiao Zhan was a little distracted, he had to admit that even he himself had lost his eyes, Fang Qunfeng was also an admirable figure.
Now that others have helped with this, Xiao Zhan naturally can't sit back and watch anymore.
He quietly approached the battle, less than thirty meters away from the two men in the battle.
At a certain moment, Zhao Kuo and Qiu Hu flew out upside down at the same time.
Coincidentally, Zhao Kuo happened to fly to Xiao Zhan's side.
"Bang!" Zhao Kuo's body hit a broken boulder, and when he opened his mouth, he spit out a mouthful of blood, mixed with fragments of internal organs, and the true yuan left of the whole person was very small.
And the Qiu Hu on the opposite side also lost its combat effectiveness.
If no one interferes, when the two recover, it is still unknown who will kill the deer.
It's a pity that Xiao Zhan is here.
Zhao Kuo, who was panting violently with his back against the broken stone, was just about to shout at Qiu Hu, when suddenly, he felt a murderous aura coming from behind.
Out of instinct, Zhao Kuo wanted to dodge, but he didn't have half the strength, so he could only turn his head with difficulty, and his blood-red eyes were full of resentment.
"Huh!"
The red dragon sword slashed, and the black sword light flashed away.
Zhao Kuo's eyes widened angrily, his pupils continued to dilate, and his eyes gradually lost their brilliance.
Xiao Zhan reached out and touched Zhao Kuo's body, and found a small bag of True Yuan Stones, in addition to that, there was also a jade pendant of turquoise.
On the other side, Qiu Hu, who was originally out of strength, suddenly stood up, panting while holding his spear tightly and looking at Xiao Zhan vigilantly.
Although he felt that Xiao Zhan was only the strength of the late stage of the Qi Gathering Realm, it was still very dangerous for him to be seriously injured.
Xiao Zhan also looked at Qiu Hu vigilantly, and asked in a deep voice:
"Did Fang Qunfeng ask you to come?"
Qiu Hu didn't speak, nor did he nod.
Xiao Zhan said again: "If Fang Qunfeng asked you to come, then we are not enemies. ”
A flash of clarity flashed in Qiu Hu's eyes, he sat down cross-legged, and then looked at Xiao Zhandao:
"I want that jade pendant."
Xiao Zhan frowned, "What about the reason?" ”
Although Qiu Hu was covered with wounds, his face was still expressionless, as if it was not he who was injured.
"This jade pendant belongs to the dead daughter of an elder of the Qingtian Sect, and it appeared with Zhao Kuo, and things are obviously not simple."
Xiao Zhan's face sank, "You want to blame that elder for Zhao Kuo's death, isn't this a little inappropriate?" ”
Qiu Hu snorted coldly: "That elder deserves to die!" Is it bad to let them dog-eat-dog? ”
Xiao Zhan didn't say anything more, and threw the jade pendant directly to Qiu Hu.
Qiu Hu took the jade pendant and got up to leave.
Xiao Zhan suddenly said:
"What about the hundred disciples of the Heavenly Sect?"
Qiu Hu didn't look back, just said indifferently:
"Before I leave the Wasteland, I will kill them all!"
Waiting for Qiu Hu to staggered out a hundred meters, Xiao Zhan suddenly shouted:
"Since you know who I am, don't you want to kill me? Aren't the people of the Wasteland all remnants in your eyes? Kill me, and you can go back and claim your reward!" ”
Qiu Hu turned his head and glanced at Xiao Zhan coldly:
"You don't have to test me, what your origin has nothing to do with me! Your life or death has nothing to do with me. ”
"I came to kill Zhao Kuo to repay Fang Qunfeng's kindness, and it has nothing to do with you."
