Volume 3: Lamentation of the Seven Sons Chapter 338 Returning the Favor
Not surprisingly, there was also an endless tide of beasts gathered in front of the gate of the City of Edge, but when the two of them saw that the gates of the City of Origin were full of corpses of spirit beasts, and the warriors on the city gate were still struggling to fight, they were both briefly relieved.
The city of origin is the largest city located at the foot of the Creation Mountain, countless adventurers will gather here, replenish equipment, in order to go to the Creation Mountain adventure, so the number of masters here is actually a lot, the hardware facilities in the city are also quite good, the city gate is as high as more than two hundred and fifty meters, there are three walls thick up to several meters of stainless steel city gate, the city garrison flight troops, special forces, beast troops, assassination troops and other military branches are very complete, but here is not like the endless plains of the country of grass, but mainly mountains and hills, So there are very few knights here, only goat riders who are good at fighting in rough terrain.
In terms of empathy ability, if Zhao Yunlong is called second, no one in the entire Eastern Continent dares to call him first, after seeing the warriors on the city wall being tortured and killed by flying insect beasts, thunder spiders, flame demon beasts, dark minotaurs, strange white wolves, etc., he rushed down with a dodge, and with a move, the sword of a warrior who died in battle fell into his hand.
"You will not die in vain, and I will inherit the will to protect your family and homeland!"
The moment he got the sword, Zhao Yunlong's entire person's momentum underwent earth-shaking changes.
Li Weiqiang, who was far away, was shocked, he and Zhao Yunlong fought twice, but he had never felt this momentum, it was not a skill, it was not a trick, it was just a simple, strong murderous aura!
In the chaotic battlefield, most people couldn't see what was happening, but a golden light flashed everywhere above the city wall, but wherever it passed, any spirit beast was broken and broken, and its soul died on the spot. The golden figure seemed to be a messenger from hell, and almost no spirit beast could hold up his sword.
"Is this his murderous appearance?" Li Weiqiang groaned.
There are also a lot of flying spirit beasts in the sky, but the Chaos Nightmare Beast is not a vegetarian, which one who does not have long eyes dares to come over, it is too lazy to release its skills, and directly takes it off in one bite.
"Xiaobai, change into perception mode, go find ......" Li Weiqiang didn't want to fight at the gate of the city, but he thought that the Chaos Demon Wolf didn't know Qi and the people at all, and there was no way to perceive him, so he couldn't help but feel a little depressed, so he had to change his words: "Forget it, you go down with Lapol to help, but eat less and be careful of sleeping too long." β
"Okay!"
The Chaos Nightmare Beast flew to the city wall with Li Weiqiang on its shoulder, and then turned into the appearance of a Chaos Gem Dragon, and rushed down the city wall excitedly, seemingly trying to get enough.
Since the demonic beasts that jumped up in the city wall area here were all cleaned up by Zhao Yunlong, there was not much danger, and the warriors in front were still desperately firing various skills downward, using the condescending advantage to resist the enemy. Only occasionally a few fireballs, lightning and the like will fall from the sky. Although Li Weiqiang was now in a weak state, he would not be hit by this level of attack, and occasionally shot out two rays of Netherworld True Qi, piercing through the spirit beasts that rushed up.
Soon, after Zhao Yunlong solved the threat on the city wall, he began to release his ultimate move, the Sun Realm. Unlike Li Weiqiang, who was drained of power after using a single star slash, Zhao Yunlong's consumption of this move was much smaller, and the cooldown time was also extremely short.
Using the powerful power of the Sun Realm, not only did he burn tens of thousands of spirit beasts that were about to rush to the city wall, but he even cleaned up the corpses piled up in front of the city wall.
You must know that in the face of the two-hundred-and-fifty-meter-high city wall, it is actually difficult to climb up if you can't fly, and now this group of spirit beasts is relying on the hundred-meter-high corpse pile that was piled up by the death of the spirit beasts before before to climb up so easily, after such a destruction in the solar realm, it can be said that the advantage that the beast tide had established before was swept away.
But this is not the end, Zhao Yunlong released three Sun Realms in a row, and the dampness within a few thousand meters in front of the city wall of the City of Origin was almost wiped out, and only four or five high-level spirit beasts or immortal beasts among the ten thousand spirit beasts survived. The beast tides that had launched a charge from a distance of kilometers were also blown away by the aftermath of the explosion in the solar realm.
"Lord Sword God? It's the sword god who has come to our back! β
"Sword God-sama! Sword God-sama! β
"The Dawn Sword God is here! The Dawn Sword God is here! β
β¦β¦
The warriors who fought bloodily on the city wall were like gods, the only person in the Eastern Empire who enjoyed the title of Sword God, the head of the twelve royal knights, and the existence of Zhao Yunlong was actually a miracle for the Eastern Empire.
Many warriors who fought for a long time even began to bow down, and worship is contagious, one to ten, ten to hundred, and one hundred to thousand...... Up and down the city walls, inside and outside the city, countless warriors began to kneel as a way to express their worship and respect.
The city lord of the city of edge is a middle-aged man with a capable appearance, and he is very happy when he glances at the mustache of the figure-eight figure, he pushed away the people in front of him, and knelt down in front of Zhao Yunlong excitedly: "Liang Xiao, the city lord of the city of edge, see Lord Sword God!" Welcome to your arrival! β
"Get up, I'll be here as soon as I get your help, what's going on here? Why is there a beast tide? Zhao Yunlong asked suspiciously.
"This matter is a long story, the beast tide has been repelled by adults for the time being, and I invite you to go and rest." The city lord of the city of Yuanzhi had sharp eyes, and he could naturally see that Zhao Yunlong had a certain amount of consumption.
"Okay." Zhao Yunlong didn't shirk either, he naturally understood that resting was to fight better in the future. However, he also specially called Li Weiqiang together. This time, if it weren't for his space spell, it would naturally be impossible to be so timely, and he was still very grateful to Li Weiqiang.
When the city lord went to Beijing to report on his work, he only had a one-sided relationship with Zhao Yunlong, and he could barely recognize it, as for Li Weiqiang, he naturally recognized him as Zhao Yunlong's subordinate, and politely greeted him.
"Where is General Qi Dairen?" Li Weiqiang asked straight to the point.
"He was injured by a two-headed thunder dragon in the first wave of beast tides, and I placed him in the city lord's mansion." The city lord replied truthfully.
Li Weiqiang said: "Send someone to lead the way, I want to go and see the general." β
Seeing him so anxious, Zhao Yunlong was secretly surprised in his heart, and simply said: "Let's go together, I haven't seen you for a long time, although we are enemies, but this time he took the initiative to face the beast tide, defend our land, and calm the hearts of our army, which is worthy of admiration." β
"Yes, Lord Sword God, then this way, please!"
After the city lord simply arranged a few words at the city gate, he set off with Zhao Yunlong and Li Weiqiang.
The sudden tide of beasts caused chaos in the city, and the sad afternoon breeze, the ruined streets, and the bleak atmosphere permeated every corner of the city.
The wounded soldiers had nowhere to go but three or two leaning on the street corners, and they either had broken hands and feet, or they were bleeding badly, and some of them did not even know whether they were alive or dead.
The hungry, homeless people were looking for their seats, and their mothers had died on the side of the road, and the smell had been rotting for a long time, but the seven or eight-year-old daughter had been guarding her mother's body and refused to leave.
β¦β¦
Pain, hunger, and fatigue are revealed in every soldier or civilian who can be seen.
Li Weiqiang sighed secretly, this desperate situation brought about by the secret war is inevitable.
"What about the supplies? What about medicine? Why is this happening in the city? Zhao Yunlong frowned and asked, his tone was very bad, changing from the previous sunny and warm.
The city lord hurriedly said: "The medicine in the city has long been used up, and the supplies are almost at the bottom......
Zhao Yunlong stopped, looked at him directly, and said coldly: "Then you just watched the soldiers and residents of the city starving?" β
"No, my lord, I've been trying to figure out a way, although the beast tide hasn't been around for long, but ...... However, because the defense of the city is excellent, the residents of nearby cities, villages and towns have come here, and the number of people is too large. Chengduo said in a cold sweat.
"Really?"
Zhao Yunlong's voice couldn't hear joy and sorrow, but Li Weiqiang, who was extremely keen, clearly sensed a wave of anger.
Soon, everyone came to the city lord's mansion, with pavilions and pavilions, beautiful mountains and rivers, it seemed that they had long known that Zhao Yunlong would come, and the guards and maids in the mansion lined up to greet each other.
"Li Weiqiang, you seem to know Qi Dairen, I really want to see him, you go first, I still have something very important to do." Zhao Yunlong had obviously come to the City Lord's Mansion in the City of Edge, only one step away, but now, he refused to go.
Li Weiqiang felt a little weird, but he was anxious in his heart, and he didn't think too much, so he went to the attic where the distinguished guests of the Starfall Empire were housed under the guidance of the guards.
"Who's coming?" The dark warriors of the Starfall Empire immediately stopped a few people who had come here.
The city lord's guard said respectfully: "This is the subordinate of our Eastern Empire's Yao Sun Sword God, and he specially came to pay a visit to General Qi and lead people. β
"Our general is injured, and now he doesn't see any guests, don't say anything about his subordinates, even if the Yaori Sword God comes, he won't be there."
The guard hurriedly said, "This ...... We don't have any ill intentions, we just want to meet the general. β
"Don't instigate, if I can't see it, I won't see it! Get lost! β
Obviously within the territory of the Eastern Empire, the dark warriors of the Starfall Empire are extremely rampant and domineering, which makes people feel a little noisy.
Li Weiqiang frowned, it was really the first time he had seen someone rampant to such an extent, and he didn't even pay attention to the Yaori Sword God, he really wanted to see what kind of picture Zhao Yunlong would be like if he came here, but in other words, Zhao Yunlong's personality has always been better, and I am afraid he will not worry about a gatekeeper.
"Look, my lord, why don't we go back first......" The person who led the way was quite helpless.
Li Weiqiang waved his hand, signaling the guard to leave it alone, and then stepped forward and whispered a few words in the ears of the two dark warriors guarding the door: "Sunset in all directions......"
The faces of the two dark warriors changed at the same time, and the eyes that looked at Li Weiqiang were completely different from just now, and one of the dark warriors snorted, pretending to be suddenly realized: "So you want to do that...... Really, since you are so sincere in wanting to meet our general, then I will take you there, and what do you see, let's go. β
The Dark Warrior drove away a few of the guards who led the way, and then one of the Dark Warriors led Li Weiqiang into the attic. The light in the attic was very dark, and many people in different clothes were resting in the building, and some were bandaging their wounds, presumably from the previous battle. When they saw the strange Li Weiqiang coming here, they cast curious glances, but their discipline was very strict, and no one stepped forward to ask the reason, or even say a word.
Qi Dairen didn't say that there was a single room, but he was surrounded by the crowd on the second floor, surrounded by his companions, and he saw that his body was faintly trembling with light, and a purple mark seemed to be there, floating everywhere on his body, crawling like a worm.
"Poison spirit?" Li Weiqiang has seen a lot, but he recognized this thing.
When the Dark Samurai arrived, he didn't make any report, just knelt on the floor.
After waiting for a while, Qi led people to recover from their luck, but the spreading purple poison spirit still failed to disperse, so his face was not very good.
"What?"
He simply asked two words.
The dark warrior hurriedly stepped forward and whispered in his ear.
Qi Dairen's expression did not move, but he moved his gaze to Li Weiqiang: "Why did you come to me, although I don't know who you are?" But perhaps, now is not the time for us to meet! β
Li Weiqiang looked at this familiar middle-aged figure, and for a while he had mixed feelings, he knelt down on one knee and bowed: "General, do you remember that summer ten years ago, in that peach blossom town full of birds and flowers, but corpses are full of corpses, the child who knelt in front of you to thank ......"
Qi Dairen's expression was slightly suffocated, if he only said what happened ten years ago, he couldn't remember, but in Peach Blossom Town, he was almost planted in Zhao Yunlong's hands, and his impression was not profound, and then thinking about his hand after being wiped out by the royal knight, a child who cried into tears appeared in his mind.
Li Weiqiang in front of him, his kneeling posture on one knee, his resolute eyes, seem to completely coincide with the child more than ten years ago, and it has never changed for more than ten years
"You? Are you that little boy? Your name is ...... Your name is ......"
"My name is Li Weiqiang."
"Good!" Qi led people to help up the young man in front of him, but this was not a simple support, but he wanted to try his aura, but the moment he touched his hand, his happy expression was almost shocked, because the aura coming from the palm of his hand seemed to come from the purgatory abyss, which made him feel a yin qi and an unspeakable fear.
With Li Weiqiang's perception, of course, he also knew the other party's temptation, but he didn't care, just said: "General, if you believe me, let me help you deal with the poisonous spirit that is entangled in your soul, right?" β
"Do you still have that power? That's trouble. β
"General, you buried my father and mother for me, and erected a monument for my parents, as long as I have the opportunity, I will definitely repay it in this life!" Li Weiqiang replied without hesitation or concealment.
Qi Dairen nodded slightly, but his thoughts were a little erratic, because he suddenly remembered the name Li Weiqiang, the best friend of Dongfang Yun, the thirteenth prince of the Eastern Empire, and a young master of the mainland who has recently become famous in the Heavenly Wound Imperial City, known as the first person of the Seven Sons of the East, with swordsmanship and unfathomable aura.
He didn't ignore the name, but he didn't associate this Li Weiqiang with that Li Weiqiang for a while, because no matter what, that Li Weiqiang didn't seem to be here? And now, no matter which Li Weiqiang he is, with his aura and his undisguised respect for himself, he may become a capable leader of himself, but now is an eventful time, is there really such a coincidence? Qi led people to be entangled in their hearts for a while, afraid that this person had other plans, and he might become a sword to backstab himself at a critical time.
Qi led people's thoughts up and down, but Li Weiqiang didn't think as much as he thought, and he was bent on helping him remove the threat of poisonous spirits, so he directly sacrificed the phoenix jade, and the incomparably bright phoenix flame slowly entered the body of Qi and the people.
"Phoenix CurseβVerdict!"
In order to repay the favor, Li Weiqiang did not hide his selfishness at all, the purgatory lock mark was blessed on the pupil, and he used the strongest aura, and the originally crimson Phoenix Flame was distorted into a dark red color with the change of Li Weiqiang's attributes.
Although Qi Daoren felt that this power seemed to be extremely soft, it was taboo to let the power of others enter his body, and maybe the other party would do something to him, and he couldn't help but reject it.
Because Li Weiqiang was afraid of making Qi and people feel uncomfortable, he didn't force it at all, and he was slightly surprised to see that Phoenix Yan was excluded.
Li Weiqiang didn't use the phoenix flame to forcibly disperse the poisonous spirit, put away the phoenix jade, and grabbed the hand of Qi Daoren.
This time, Li Weiqiang did not use aura, nor did he take out any artifact, and everyone was wondering what he was going to do. In the surprised eyes of everyone, the poisonous spirit that spread on the Qi Belt person actually slowly moved towards Li Weiqiang's body.
Ordinary poison only erodes the body, but the poisonous spirit is different, it erodes the soul, and no one has heard that the poisonous spirit will transfer or anything, but the current poisonous spirit has come to Li Weiqiang's body along the body of the Qi leader, and there seems to be no resistance at all.
"General, it's alright." Li Weiqiang simply waved his hand, and used the purification ability of the phoenix jade to dispel the residual poison that remained on the body of Qi Dairen.
"You...... How? Qi was very surprised.
Li Weiqiang said with a smile: "The Ten Thousand Poison Gu King is my sword spirit, and it is still a very simple matter to handle a small poison spirit. The purgatory lock on his body flashed, and the poisonous spirit covering his body was instantly annihilated.
"Hahaha, I killed a beast before, but I didn't expect to be possessed by this thing, and I was entangled for a long time, and I want to thank Weiqiang for your help." Qi led a man and patted him on the shoulder.
Li Weiqiang said: "It is my honor to serve the general. β
"Hmm......" Qi Dairen nodded with satisfaction.
"Having this kind of strength at a young age really has to be impressive, Li Weiqiang, no, the descendant of the Netherworld Brave, your purgatory lock marks...... It's impressive. β
Li Weiqiang suddenly felt an extremely strong pressure coming, and several cracks were blown open on the precious wooden planks under his feet, and the sawdust floated into the air against gravity, and then was crushed into pieces by this strong aura in the air.
With this powerful momentum, a sturdy middle-aged man with a beard and dozens of braids walked out, only to see him stepping on gold silk curved hoof boots, wearing a gilded hexagram robe, and his hands behind his back, so not majestic.
"Your Holiness, you are idle now, and you don't have to worry about the residual poison on your body?" Qi Dairen didn't seem to like this person very much.
"Hahaha!" The person known as the Dharma King laughed for a while, and said conceitedly: "This king has a deep aura and a little snake venom, which is nothing to me. β
"Heh, when you and I punished the snake together, you weren't like this, you actually used me as a shield, you really have you!" Qi Band's voice was very cold.
"Where did you say this, it's obvious that the general can't dodge, how can you blame this king." The Dharma King snorted lightly, as if he didn't want to dwell on this, and turned to Li Weiqiang and said, "Boy, where did you inherit the power of the Netherworld Brave?" β
Li Weiqiang only glanced at him, then turned his head, his expression was very different from his treatment of Qi Daoren.
Seeing this, Qi Daoren raised his eyebrows slightly and smiled mockingly.
"Bold, dare to be disrespectful to the master!" A yellow-haired man behind the King scolded angrily.
However, he didn't even pay attention to the domineering Dharma King, how could Li Weiqiang ignore him, and the scene was a little cold for a while.
Fortunately, there are often things to save the scene in this world, such as now, there is a sound of anger in the city lord's mansion, and the house is full of people, becoming noisy, there are sounds of beating and scolding, there are shouting sounds, and even the sound of moving things.
A few people in the attic who are big-eyed and small-eyed are a little embarrassed, I don't know if I should care about the outside now, after all, everyone is struggling with shape, who moves first and there is no style?
"Wei Qiang, let's go out and have a look, the national teacher is indifferent to external objects, so let him stay here." Qi Dairen snorted coldly and laughed, ignoring the murderous eyes of the Dharma King.
Several henchmen belonging to Qi and Li Weiqiang followed him, but the rest did not follow.
As soon as they went out, before everyone had time to chat, they found out the reason for the gas explosion around, it turned out that the divine beast Labol was flying around in the city lord's mansion, carrying a lot of things on his paws, and what was even more strange was that the people in the city lord's mansion were actually making conflicts, and several of them were actually fighting.
"What does this mean? Civil strife? A confidant said strangely.
Qi Daidao: "It seems that something very interesting happened, the city lord of the City of Origin was carried under the city wall by Zhao Yunlong. β
"Carry? General, what do you mean by carrying? The henchman couldn't see that far and asked curiously.
"That's right, it's the one you understand, let's hurry up, or we won't see a good show."
Qi led people to snap their fingers, and an earthy yellow dragon emerged from the spirit array. After everyone jumped on, the earth dragon flapped its wings and flew quickly towards the edge of the city wall.
"Wei Qiang, you were in the imperial capital before, right?" Qi asked casually.
Li Weiqiang nodded and said, "That's right, I was still in the imperial capital just now, and I used a space spell to get here." β
"I see, I didn't expect you to know how to use space spells?" Qi Dairen said with a little surprise, then looked ahead, and said expressionlessly: "You know that, your purpose should be him, right?" β
"That's right, all my cultivation, all my struggles, and all my forbearance are all for him."
Li Weiqiang's tone was very light, but it gave Qi Daoren absolute confidence, this resentment is absolutely impossible to pretend, no matter what his identity is, but as long as he can have this kind of resentment, it is enough.
"Don't worry, I'm here on my orders, and that's the only purpose. But be cautious, the strength of the Yao Sun Sword God must not be underestimated. Qi led people to instruct.
Fighting Zhao Yunlong twice, Li Weiqiang certainly knew how strong this man was, and he wouldn't dare to underestimate Zhao Yunlong.
