On this day, Ling Jiuqiu left the academy after a long absence, left Tongyuan City, and rode all the way away.

The destination of his trip was the Taihang Mountains.

To be precise, it is the bandits in the Taihang Mountains who do all kinds of evil.

After a few months of painstaking cultivation, he found that his cultivation improvement speed was indeed far higher than that of all his classmates, but he was not satisfied at all, but instead realized the powerful effect of the Spirit Devouring Python more profoundly.

Therefore, he wants to upgrade the Spirit Devouring Python Martial Soul again and raise it to the limit that can be reached so far.

In that case, his cultivation speed could be further improved, leaving all his classmates farther behind.

"Da Da Da!"

"Da Da Da!"

The sound of horses' hooves echoed through the deserted mountains, and the breeze swept through the trees, setting off a slight 'rustle'.

Ling Jiuqiu galloped over the mountain trail alone, carrying up smoke and dust more than a person high and dozens of meters long behind him.

Suddenly.

More than a dozen strong men with hideous faces jumped out from among the bushes on the side of the road, and a bald man led by him shouted violently:

"People don't stop coming......"

Before he finished his words, he saw Ling Jiuqiu decisively lift the reins.

"Phew!"

The bluemaned horse snorted and stopped.

And Ling Jiuqiu himself activated the martial soul without stopping, jumped up from the horse, and rushed towards the dozen or so bandits who blocked the way.

"It's the Spirit Sea Realm! Come on! ”

More than a dozen bandits shouted in horror and fled in different directions.

can make Jiuqiu go from activating the martial soul to making a move, in just a short moment.

As soon as these bandits escaped more than ten meters away, they were caught up by Ling Jiuqiu and killed easily, leaving only the bald man at the head of the group, sitting on the ground with a frightened face.

"Spare your life!"

"Spare your life! I'm a first-time bandit, I've never killed anyone, and I beg the adults to spare my life! ”

The bald man wept and cried and begged for mercy.

After Ling Jiuqiu devoured everyone's martial spirits one by one, he walked in front of the bald man and looked at each other with an indifferent face: "Take me to your cottage, I can spare your life, otherwise, die!" ”

"Okay, my lord, I'll take you there."

Seeing that there was hope for his life, the bald man suddenly became energetic, quickly turned over and knelt down, kowtowed a few times, and then stood up cautiously.

"Lead the way, don't play any tricks, or I'll kill you in the first place, understand?"

"Understood, understood! The little one understands! ”

The bald man nodded repeatedly.

After speaking, he took Ling Jiuqiu to the mountain.

Each bandit force in the mountains has its own territory, and the roadblocks and robberies will only be near their own territory, otherwise they will inevitably have disputes with other bandit forces.

Therefore, the place where the bald man intercepted Ling Jiuqiu was actually not far from their cottage, just over two mountains.

"Our boss is very cautious, and has arranged a few people to stand guard on the mountain, no matter which direction we go up the mountain, when we pass through the mountainside, there is a distance that is not covered, and we will definitely be discovered, my lord, you see......"

When he came to the foot of the mountain, the bald man said carefully.

Ling Jiuqiu just thought of a whim and prepared to ransack the cottage, but he didn't bother to think of any foolproof measures, so he said casually: "You should be the leader, right?" I'll pretend to be your subordinate, follow you up the mountain, and if you are cross-examined, you will find a way to explain. ”

The bald man awkwardly touched his big bald head and smiled awkwardly: "I was just lucky, I became a squad leader as soon as I joined." ”

Ling Jiuqiu didn't bother to pay attention to his words, but just casually ordered, "Let's go." ”

The bald man nodded, took a deep breath, barely calmed down, returned to his usual grinning appearance, and walked quickly towards the mountain.

Ling Jiuqiu followed behind him step by step.

……

Not far from the top of the mountain, the two young men in charge of the sentry saw the figures of the bald man and Ling Jiuqiu.

"Huh? Is that...... Captain Lu? Didn't he take people out hunting today? Why did you come back with only one person? ”

"Need a debrief?"

"Don't use it yet, there shouldn't be any problem with Captain Lu's appearance, it may just bring a newcomer in."

The two whispered a few words, and then did not pay any more attention, but turned their heads to look in other directions.

It didn't take long.

The bald man Captain Lu took Ling Jiuqiu to the top of the mountain.

A dilapidated cottage appeared in front of Ling Jiuqiu's eyes.

The two young men were guarding the gate of the cottage, and when they saw the figure of Ling Jiuqiu and the others, they immediately asked.

"Captain Lu, who is this person? What about the others? ”

The bald man grinned and forcibly pulled out a smile: "This is a newcomer, I want to join us, I see that his strength is good, so I will bring him up to meet the big boss." ”

The young man glanced at Ling Jiuqiu a few times, and saw that Ling Jiuqiu had an extraordinary temperament, without the slightest look of nervousness or fear, and suddenly became suspicious.

When an ordinary teenager comes to a place like a gangster cottage, it is impossible to behave so calmly, even if he wants to join the cottage, he must have instinctive vigilance in his heart in the face of many strange and murderous bandits.

They have all seen a lot of newcomers, so they naturally know what a normal newcomer looks like.

And the performance of the teenager in front of him is absolutely abnormal.

"Captain Lu, you know the rules, if a newcomer comes in, you need to wait outside first, let me go in and report first."

One of the young men spoke.

The bald man subconsciously looked at Ling Jiuqiu and asked him what he meant with his eyes.

This scene happened to be seen by the youth.

The young man suddenly chuckled in his heart, knowing that the situation was not good, and guessed that the bald man was probably being held hostage.

He and another young man exchanged glances, exchanged glances, and were about to quietly retreat into the cottage.

They all understood that to be able to make Captain Lu cooperate so carefully, and dare to break into the cottage single-handedly, this young man's strength was definitely above them.

They suddenly had a guess in their hearts about Ling Jiuqiu's identity - this is a young Tianjiao with good strength, who wants to learn from the characters in the book to act chivalrous and righteous.

Just as the two young men looked at each other, Ling Jiuqiu suddenly raised his head and looked at them and grinned.

"Don't be so troublesome, let your big boss come out to see me directly."

The two young men resolutely retreated, shouting: "Enemy attack! ”

Ling Jiuqiu said indifferently: "Help me stay here, I still have something to trouble you later, if I find out that you have escaped, I will definitely not let you go, understand?" ”

After speaking, he didn't wait for the bald man's response, and took the initiative to rush to the inside of the cottage.

At this moment, dozens of bandits armed with weapons ran out from all directions of the cottage.

"Who? Who dared to attack the cottage? ”

"That's that kid, let's go together!"

Everyone activated the martial soul as soon as possible, and rushed towards Ling Jiuqiu.
