Because Wang Lun helped Shi Qiang forcibly cross the robbery, Wang Lun was in a coma for a whole day, and he didn't wake up until the evening of the next day, which also caused Wang Lun's previous plan to prepare drugs to be wasted, and he had no choice but to temporarily modify the original plan. So Wang Lun decided to temporarily become him and Hu Ying to stay and prepare medicine this time, Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong went to Houtu City to negotiate with the Dujia, Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong according to Wang Lun's decision, packed their bags and left the village, and came to Houtu City, but as soon as they entered the city, they found that something was wrong, there seemed to be a nervous atmosphere in this city, and the number of cultivators was much more than before, and there were many cultivators who formed a team and left Houtu City in a hurry, looking at the direction should be going to the mysterious cave, Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong decided to find a place with the most information to rest and listen to what had happened recently.

Soon the two of them came to a tavern close to the city gate, the tavern can not be said to be the most authoritative, but it is the most complete, Tiannan Haibei, as long as it is a place where there are people, whether it is an anecdote or hearsay, the tavern will definitely have someone to talk about, of course, if you collect intelligence here, you need a certain degree of discernment, because not all intelligence revolves around what you need, if you want to get accurate information, then good, Please see if you have enough money in your own pocket, in this world of the jungle, there is nothing that money can't do, even if someone spends money to buy the head of the monarch of the Qinglong Kingdom, as long as you give enough price, then someone will definitely help you do it.

The topic is far away, this Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong came to the tavern and found a remote table to sit down, and after beckoning Xiao Er to serve wine and food, they collected useful information here, fortunately, what happened in Houtu City now is the biggest thing, and many people are discussing this matter, so Shi Qiang and they have already collected enough information without much effort, it turned out to be a problem with this family, originally Du Er Ye had agreed with Shi Qiang to come over today to talk about things, But I never thought that someone in the family would publicize this matter, and also claimed that his family had found strong foreign aid, which could completely ensure that his family's team could show their strength in the mysterious cave, and the scattered cultivators were scoffed when they heard the news, and they didn't care too much, but then the actions of the ten first-class families confirmed this matter in disguise, and I saw that these ten major families immediately began to recruit troops, and spread the scattered cultivation of Houtu City, and some of the strength of those casual cultivators were invited by the family, Now the scattered cultivators have blown up their nests, and various versions of information are emerging in an endless stream, and some people with poor strength have begun to take the initiative to find the major families and start to hug their thighs.

Shi Qiang and Gong Xiangdong glanced at each other, and both saw helplessness in each other's eyes, this family didn't know what they thought, they could have made a lot of money in silence, but they were stunned to make it into an open and secret battle between the major families, comparing with each other, with the rising prices, if this big family didn't find something useful in that mysterious cave, it would be a complete loss, not to mention the manpower and financial resources, and there would be no benefits, isn't this just a loss of money? Shi Qiang and the two of them hurriedly checked out and left the tavern, now the matter here must be finalized as soon as possible, so they came to the capital, although they were mentally prepared, but they were still frightened by the scenery in front of them, no way, the main gate has been blocked tightly, they had to find the back door, fortunately, there is no one at this back door, only two guards, the guards also let them in after seeing Shi Qiang's gold medal, and took them to find the second master.

At this time, the second master was cultivating, and when he saw Shi Qiang and the others coming, he hurriedly greeted them warmly into the house to talk, and ordered tea.

"Second Master Du, you don't have to be polite, it's not the first time we've met," after taking a seat, Shi Qiang said, "I came to your mansion all the way, and the road was full of cultivators who were busy, and then I found out that now the major families in Houtu City have fully begun to recruit troops and horses, ready to explore the mysterious cave, and I also heard that it is the news from your mansion that it is said that strong foreign aid has been found, which has led to the current situation, I don't know if your mansion understands this matter?" I see in front of your mansion, it is also very lively, and many cultivators have come to participate in the action team organized by your mansion. ”

Shi Qiang can now be regarded as having made his words clear, and the second master can only smile helplessly when he hears this, "Two, the meaning of the two is understood, in fact, this news is not something I am willing to release, but when I came back to report to the head of the family, I didn't know how to listen to this person, and then I encountered something outside, so I took it as a good thing and publicized it, and it was only a day's work to make a mess of the entire Houtu City, and the two of them did have contact with other families in our city before, They more or less knew the strength of the two and the other two, and they didn't want to see my family rise again, so they began to prepare to explore, and those cultivators outside the door were also ready to fish in troubled waters, basically their strength was not very good, and for some of them, the appearance fee would naturally rise with the tide, which was not what my family wanted to see. ”

What the second master said has some truth, but Shi Qiang and the two of them still expressed doubts, this guy is the second-in-command of the big family, and his brain and ability to flicker are definitely not weak, it is unknown whether he was really said like this, anyway, the current thing is a foregone conclusion, and it can't be changed, so there is no point in what Shi Qiang and the two of them want to say, so they don't dwell too much on this, but they didn't expect that there would be so many problems this time, so naturally their appearance fee will also have to rise. Regarding this problem, Du Erye said that there was no problem, and Shi Qiang did not make any excessive requests, anyway, they came here to see the situation, and how much benefit they could get was completely for nothing, so naturally there was no lion to open his mouth, so this conversation ended in a mutually satisfactory ending, and Du Erye naturally wanted to introduce them to the head of the Du family, that is, his brother, and the core team prepared by their Du family.

Du Er Ye personally took Shi Qiang and them to a small courtyard Later, after a while, more than ten people rushed in from outside the courtyard, Gong Xiangdong secretly felt that the cultivation of these more than ten people was not low, but it was not very high, the highest was a cultivator of the second layer of the Transformation Realm, there were five or six people who were half-step Transformation Realm, and the rest were all in the late stage of the Awakening Realm, but the leader was not the cultivator of the second layer of the Transformation Realm, but a young man who only had the strength of the eighth layer of the Awakening Realm, and this young man came to the front of the Second Master of Du and gave his hand, "I've seen the second uncle!" Then he stood beside the second master of the capital, and the second master introduced to Shi Qiang and the others: "This is the little nephew under the next, named Du Shaojun, the leader of the next generation of my family, only sixteen years old, but has reached the late stage of the awakening realm, this time he will lead the team of my family, follow the team of the two into the mysterious cave to explore, all the items found by my family will be handed over to him for safekeeping, and the income of your team, my family will not touch anything." ”

At this time, a person dressed as a servant came to Du Erye's ear and whispered a few words, Du Erye was very sorry to Shi Qiang and the others, "I'm really sorry for the two, my brother is doing something important at the moment, I'm afraid there will be no way to get out and meet the two of them for a while, I think so, it's better for the two of you to get to know each other with Shaojun and them today, so that they can cooperate, what do you think?" ”

Shi Qiang has just broken through to the Transformation Realm at this moment, his hands are itchy very much, yesterday he and Gong Xiangdong went to the Transverse Mountains to get familiar with the changes, and they were either air or beasts, even if they occasionally fought with Gong Xiangdong, it was only a matter of being beaten, there was no way to fight back, and it was not easy to get such an opportunity today, how could you let it go? So he nodded and agreed, Gong Xiangdong didn't care, he has now reached the seventh layer of the Transformation Realm, just these few people, all of them are not her opponents, and he still has a trick to be invincible, so naturally he did not stop this competition, Du Erye saw that both sides did not refuse, so he took these more than ten people to a training ground in the Du family, this training ground was specially reinforced, and a lot of defensive formations were arranged, unless it was a full blow from the cultivators in the late stage of the Feather Transformation Realm, Otherwise, it would be impossible to destroy anything here.

Shi Qiang was naturally very satisfied with this, and finally had a chance to make a move, he had no chance to make a move as the tail of the crane before, and soon Shi Qiang came to the middle of the training ground, and Gong Xiangdong found a place that was not in the way and sat down, looking at the look that completely thought that Shi Qiang could deal with everyone in front of him. And the second master of Du knew Shi Qiang's cultivation, but he didn't know that Shi Qiang had already crossed the catastrophe to the transformation realm, or the middle stage, so he didn't let the people in the transformation realm make a move, and named a half-step transformation cultivator, this cultivator regarded his cultivation as not low, so he didn't take Shi Qiang in his eyes, so the battle between the two sides began, and the result was naturally self-evident, starting faster and ending faster.
