Petersburg in the summer is a busy city.

As the capital of the Rakshasa Empire, it borders the North Sea and is one of the most important port cities in the entire West.

The Adventurer's Hotel is located at the southwest end of the city, Xia Yan looked out of the window on the third floor a few days ago, and his vision was blocked by the city wall, so he couldn't see anything.

After coming out this morning, the Yuqing team did not pass through the city, but climbed the stairs and went straight to the city wall.

When they reached the top of the wall, they were escorted by ten soldiers of the Royal Guard, and walked around in the direction of the Imperial City.

Ascending high and looking into the distance, Xia Yan realized that the sea water at the northwest end of this continent was originally black.

Not the black of the ink that swallows up all light, but like a finely cut black gem, reflecting the rays of the morning sun.

Yulia, the captain of the Royal Guard, walked beside Xia Yan at this time, carefully observing Xia Yan's expression.

Xia Yan noticed her gaze and asked softly, "Her Majesty the Empress went back and forth yesterday, is she in good health?" ”

The corners of Yulia's mouth twitched, thinking that you are too embarrassed to ask.

Fortunately, the old lady has always been in good health, and she survived last night.

Otherwise, the state funeral and the great sword are crowded together, and Petersburg does not know which one to do today.

No matter how much you slander in your heart, you can't show it on your face.

Yulia said with a smile: "Your Majesty is in good health, and let me pass the word on my behalf, wishing Mr. Xia a victory and a smooth victory in the Great Discussion Sword." ”

Everyone has said that this is the point, and Xia Yan can't find any reason.

After continuing to walk forward for a while, two more teams of people came up on the city wall, led by Xia Yan, who had just met last night.

Adilina, Chekov.

These are the two squads of the Rakshasa Kingdom this time, with a total of dozens of people, swaggering in front.

Xia Yan looked at it, four of the ten people were in the middle of the Innate Realm, and six were in the early stage of the Innate Realm.

The quality of the spiritual veins of the Rakshasa Empire is better than that of Yuqing, and it is said that these people are one grade higher than the people in the Yuqing Academy Palace.

As a result, it looks like it's pretty much the same.

If Yuqing also formed two teams, one from the Ten Thousand Swords Academy, one from Wu Liangxiong Jianwei and the Spring and Autumn of Swords, this would be almost one, and the quality would not be inferior to the two teams of the Rakshasa Kingdom.

I don't know if there are few cultivators in the Rakshasa Kingdom in the past ten years, or if there is a blowout of Yuqing cultivators.

However, Xia Yan heard in the past two days that there are three directly invited by the Rakshasa Kingdom, and there is only one Li Juling in Yuqing.

It seems that when it comes to top-notch cultivation seeds, a big country still has the heritage of a big country.

While observing these two teams of people, Xia Yan was wandering around in his heart, and soon, his eyes fell on a little girl.

This little girl looks very young, about the same height as Zhou Wuji, and she also looks like she is not yet developed.

However, girls generally develop earlier than boys, and Zhou Wuji is fourteen this year, and this little girl will not exceed thirteen.

It looks like a porcelain doll, carved in powder, and holds a ragdoll bear in his hand.

Xia Yan looked at her, and felt that this little girl had an inexplicable smell on her body, and there was an evil energy from the inside out.

can make Xia Yan have this kind of perception, this is obviously a witch cultivator.

The two sides of the continent have different names for witch cultivation, the east side is called witch cultivation, and the west side is called divine cultivation.

Xiao Zhu of Dantian seemed to be happy to see the hunting, and began to be active again: "Fight!" Fight! ”

Xia Yan didn't pay attention to it, but glanced at Yulia beside him: "Who is this little girl?" ”

"Mr. Xia has good eyesight." Yulia said softly, "This is our Anglican saintess, born psychic. ”

"Oh, it turned out to be a peer." Behind him, Zhou Wuji accosted, "As the national teacher and religious leader of Yuqing, I will take care of her when I go back." ”

Xia Yan shook his head: "Wuji, listen to the advice of the senior, this little girl's water is too deep, you can't grasp it." ”

Zhou Wuji smiled and said nothing.

Xia Yan said to Yulia: "The key protection object of this transaction is her?" ”

"Yes." Yulia said, "This is not only the intention of our majesty, but also the instruction of the higher sect. ”

The superior sect of the Rakshasa Kingdom, called the Patriarch, is one of the few major sects in the cultivation world, and the upper five sects can stabilize one head.

The cultivation seeds that can be so valued by such a large sect are indeed unlimited.

This talent is also on the bright side, Zhou Wuji's fourteen-year-old innate realm is already a new record for the Ten Thousand Swords Academy.

And this little girl, her age is definitely not greater than Zhou Wu, and now she already has the weather in the middle of the innate realm.

Xia Yan asked again: "The news over there has been blocked?" ”

"Don't worry, of course you have to block." Yulia said, "Otherwise, your strength is so outstanding, and I have contacted you so frequently these days, then this deal will not be hidden." ”

"If you don't know, you can't do it unless you do." Xia Yan said, "Can you block secular news, and the people in the cultivation world will also be kept in the dark by you?"

The proprietor does not hesitate to spend such a big price in the Rakshasa Kingdom, but also to protect this person, is there someone from the cultivation world to deal with this little girl? ”

Yulia shook her head: "You are too worried, if the business is really of this nature, you need to guard against people in the cultivation world, I have already made it clear to you." ”

"What is that nature?" Xia Yan asked.

Yulia sighed: "Mr. Xia, you are really a strange person.

Sometimes it's confident, sometimes it's too humble.

I'll tell you the truth, our deal is not actually to prevent others.

There are three directly invited masters in my Rakshasa country, and it is not difficult to protect a holy woman.

The point is that you're too scary. ”

"Oh." Xia Yan's face was slightly embarrassed, "It turned out to be to prevent me." ”

"Not really." Yulia smiled, "As long as you don't deal with the Holy Maiden, we will burn high incense, and as for your willingness to accept this deal and protect it yourself, it will be a surprise." ”

"It's sloppy." Xia Yan touched his face, "Now I want to add money, is it too late?" ”

Yulia couldn't cry or laugh for a while: "Mr. Xia, the big sword discussion will start soon, do you still want to sit on the ground and start the price?" ”

Xia Yan shook his head regretfully: "Forget it." ”

……

The crowd walked unhurriedly along the wall, and slowly, the squads of various countries that had settled in various parts of Petersburg gathered.

There were more and more people on the city wall, and when they reached the north city wall, they began to descend the stairs.

Fang Manshan, as an accompanying guru, stopped there.

He patted Xia Yan's shoulder and nodded emphatically.

Xia Yan hugged his fist at Fang Manshan and led his teammates to follow the large army down the city wall.

Everyone slowly walked into the imperial city under the escort of the royal guards, and stood in an open space in the main gate of the imperial city and waited.

Xia Yan raised his eyes and searched, but did not find Li Juling.

As far as Li Juling's height is concerned, if he is really nearby, he should see it at a glance.

He counted the heads again.

There are three major empires and eighteen dynasties on the mainland, of which each empire has two five-man squads, and the dynasty has one five-man squad.

There were a total of one hundred and twenty contestants, and this was the number present.

It seems that the way and time of those directly invited players are different from those of ordinary players.

In other words, at the moment, this group of people is actually cannon fodder, and they enter the scene first.

It's just that the parties concerned may not have this consciousness.

Once a decade, the people who can stand here are the leaders of various countries who come out once in a decade.

He is not very old, he is young and bloody, and he looks confident.

Xia Yan turned his head to look at his teammates and found that the contrast was stark.

The people around him were gearing up one by one, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

Only his teammates, because of their own existence, except for Tu Su, who still has some nervousness about the uncertain future, the other three look relaxed and seem to be at ease.

Especially Zhou Wuji, who was still waving at the little saint of the Rakshasa Kingdom.

The little saint of Rakshasa was made strange and shy by the little national teacher of Yuqing, hugged the ragdoll bear with a red face, and hid behind Adelina.

Adilina frowned, flicked her sleeves and walked over, slapping Zhou Wuji in the face.

Zhou Wuji stood beside Jiang Yuan.

The county lord of the Western Regions is the childhood shadow and nemesis of the Yuqing National Teacher, and he usually fights and scolds, both of them are used to it, and it is not the same thing.

But Jiang Yuan can fight Zhou Wuji himself, which doesn't mean that others can also fight.

So the girl in the red dress took a step in front of Zhou Wuji and knocked out Adelina's palm.

Adilina is a witch cultivator, that is, a divine cultivator in the west of the continent, who is not known for her physical ability.

Even if Jiang Yuan didn't use his qi and just blocked it with his hand, the power was not something that a divine cultivator could withstand.

Adelina held her wrist and snorted, her face instantly pale.

This Rakshasa country sword leader, it seems that he is really angry, and the purple light in his eyes skyrockets.

Jiang Yuan was also unambiguous, and a red flame ignited all over his body.

Xia Yan sighed and scratched his head, standing between the two.

He looked at Zhou Wuji with a blank face: "You can't grasp what I say." ”
