Chapter 280: Sneering

() "Ji Longxing" should be a personal name.

"This is ......" Xiao Tianhe looked at Liao Qifeng in confusion.

"It's okay, the name brand of a person who has been dead for decades, and I haven't bothered to report this little thing. Now this brand is just being lent to Brother Xiao for temporary use. Liao Qifeng explained, seeing Xiao Tianhe staring at the famous brand for a long time, he asked, "Brother Xiao, don't you dislike using the famous brand of the dead?"

"Oh no, no, I don't care about that. Xiao Tianhe hurriedly said, "I just don't know what this thing is for?"

Liao Qifeng replied: "Usually it's useless, but if you want to enter the city, you have to ask for it." His expression was a little gloomy, and Xiao Tianhe noticed that when he said the end, Liao Qifeng seemed to inadvertently clench his fist.

There seems to be something hidden. Xiao Tianhe saw that Liao Qifeng's face was not very good-looking, so he didn't ask any more questions, and carefully put away the name tag.

The rest of the way, the three of them didn't say much, and the atmosphere was rather dreary. After stepping into the neighborhood of Feiyun City, Xiao Tianhe found that the road was not as lively as he imagined. There are no stalls, and there are few shops. There are not many pedestrians on the street, and occasionally people are in a hurry. The deserted streetscape does not match the exuberance of the city's exterior.

"Why are there so few people in the city?" Xiao Tianhe couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Xiao, this is not an ordinary city. At first, this was actually a station built to attract the ascendants of the Nether, but after the truce between the immortals and demons, Feiyun City was gradually formed. Nowadays, the people in the city are still mainly people from the Huaiji camp in the Feiyun District of the Immortal Army, and there are almost no pure residents and tourists. However, when I got to the restaurant, it was much more lively. Lu Xiaoyan explained.

"Huaiji Camp in Feiyun District, Immortal Army...... Then we belong to the Demon Army's Xinwang Camp in Feiyun District?" Xiao Tianhe guessed. In fact, Liao Qifeng had mentioned these words just now, but Xiao Tianhe was a little puzzled, "Why is Feiyun City dominated by people from the Immortal Army?" he asked again.

"Alas, isn't it because we haven't had any Ascendants in the New Hope Camp?" The commanders of the Demon Army Headquarters don't have much hope for the Demon Army Garrison in the several Flying Ascension Areas, you see that our poor Baba Garrison is not in Feiyun City, but in the wilderness outside the city...... Lu Xiaoyan sighed.

Sun Hailiang saw it more openly: "This is also something that can't be helped." Thinking about it, Feiyun City is almost all from the financial, material and human resources of the immortal clan, so that it has what it is today. Except that we can't be stationed in the city, don't we all enjoy the same results?"

"That's what I said, but that's it...... It's too. Lao Sun, just with our size, we are always ridiculed and bullied by those little rabbit cubs of the fairy army who are a head shorter than us, can you calm down? If it weren't for our weak strength, I would have fought with them a long time ago, and Lao Tzu wouldn't care about any bullshit and peace agreement!" Liao Qifeng vented his dissatisfaction loudly. It seems that the immortals and demons here are not as harmonious as they seem.

"Shhh

"What are you afraid of, our Great Demon Dao also has an ascendant now!"

"It's not too late for you to shout when the game is over!"

Lu Xiaoyan came up and said mysteriously: "Captain, deputy team, I have heard that a few days ago, a terrible guy came out of Huaiji Valley, and after he flew up, he only trained in the triple house for nine years before he got used to it. I estimate that there is a good chance that the participants of the immortal clan in this competition are this person. ”

"What?nine years?" Liao Qifeng's bull's eyes widened larger than copper bells, "It's only been nine years to get used to? As he spoke, he glanced at Xiao Tianhe meaningfully.

"Is the news reliable? Are you sure it's nine years and not nineteen?" Sun Hailiang questioned.

Liao Qifeng glanced at him: "How is it possible? No matter how average the qualifications are, you can adapt to it in fifteen years at most, and if you have nineteen years, how bad is your physical fitness?

Sun Hailiang spread his hands helplessly: "Don't I also believe in the number of 'nine years'?"

They all said that the way of demon cultivation in the Nether Realm had been destroyed, and we were fortunate to be able to welcome Brother Xiao. Besides, regardless of the outcome of the game, our task is complete. Liao Qifeng said.

"Ahem, guys, I have to interrupt you. Could it be that the triple house refers to the three consecutive small black houses with different coercion after flying up?" Xiao Tianhe asked, "Could it be that there is also a triple black house in Huaiji Valley?"

Liao Qifeng nodded: "Yes." Actually, it wasn't a small black house, because no one had flown up here in Xinwangpo for too long, so we didn't change the candles......"

"Well, and the door is locked, isn't it?" Xiao Tianhe said with a smile.

"Hey, I'm sorry, we used to take care of it a lot at first. Later, after a long time, no one flew up, so they were lazy en masse. Liao Qifeng's expression was slightly embarrassed, "That triple house was specially built for the people who ascended to adapt to the coercion of the Yu Yu Realm. In the past, it often took about twelve years for immortal cultivators to basically adapt, but this time they came to a ruthless angle, and they only got used to it in nine years, and this qualification is extraordinary. After you get your name tag, you will soon be arranged to participate in a qualification competition for lower-level cultivators. Now it seems that your opponent is likely to be him......"

"Nine years...... Oh, this time is really 'short'. Xiao Tianhe touched his chin and smiled, he was not laughing at that person's adaptation time, but considering that person's possible identity. Since that person flew up nine years ago, minus the more than six years that Xiao Tianhe had adapted to in the triple house, in fact, that person flew earlier than him

It's only two and a half years old.

Xiao Tianhe thought that his cultivation speed was definitely not slow, so the person who ascended earlier than Xiao Tianhe should not be the younger generation of immortal cultivators. That is, either seniors or peers. If you are a senior, there are many of the seven major sects in the Qinglong Continent, and you may not know each other. But if you are a peer, if you can have such a cultivation speed, it is very likely that it is those old people that Xiao Tianhe knows well: He Tianyao, Hua Qingyu, and Zhu Xiaomin. Of course, at this time, Xiao Tianhe still didn't know that Zhu Xiaomin had already given up cultivating immortals.

But the other three didn't know what Xiao Tianhe was laughing at, and Sun Hailiang thought he was smiling bitterly, so he comforted: "Brother Xiao, you don't have to worry too much. After all, hearsay is not necessarily true. In addition, the short adaptation time can only indicate that the person's physical toughness is good, and does not mean that the other aspects are also strong. We just speculate on the past that people with strong bodies should be not much worse in other ways. But maybe he's good at that?"

"Yes, Lao Sun is right. The competition is about comprehensive strength, and physical toughness is only one of them. We have faith in you!Look, we're here!" Liao Qifeng stood in front of a small three-story building.

Xiao Tianhe looked up and saw that the plaque clearly read the three big characters "Wanxian Building".

The four of them stepped in, but there were not many guests in the hall of the restaurant, and they were all whispering as if they had made an appointment, and no one was making a noise. If you lose the lively restaurant, you won't have the charm of a restaurant, but it will be like a private school.

"Yes, it's still early today, and there aren't many people. Liao Qifeng nodded with satisfaction.

The four of them came to the counter, Liao Qifeng and the three of them each took out their name tags, and Xiao Tianhe also quickly took out fake name tags.

"Heh, it turned out to be the demon race leading the team. The shopkeeper's voice was so loud that the whole restaurant could hear it.

Sun Hailiang's face sank: "Shopkeeper Wang, is it the first time you have seen a few of us? Why are you shouting so much?"

The squinting fat shopkeeper was happy: "Of course I know a few of you." But isn't there a new face? Why, the demon clan sent a newcomer to do the drudgery? I'll take a look!" he picked up Xiao Tianhe's name tag, flipped it to the bottom and glanced at it first, "Ji Longxing...... Hehe, it turns out that your surname is 'Ji', and I'll call you 'Xiao Ji' in the future, how about it?"

"Listen to me. Xiao Tianhe smiled lightly.

"It's not you, the 'Ji', it's the chirping 'chicken'!" the annoying shopkeeper Wang chased after him again, and the drinkers in the restaurant hall who had been listening attentively to the excitement immediately erupted into a deafening burst of laughter.

The short-tempered Liao Qifeng smashed his fist on the counter, smashing a hole on the countertop, "Wang Lao Liu, I warn you not to deceive people too much! Our brother is here to drink today, and he doesn't have the heart to mess around with you, so you put away your set for me as soon as possible!"

The shopkeeper of the king has a total of seven sons, he is the sixth, and his parents are greedy for a convenient name, from "Wang Laoda" to Shun to "Wang Laoqi", which is really trouble-free. When he was a child, he was not sensible, but when he was older, Wang Lao Liu had an opinion on this random name. After joining the Immortal Army, everyone was given a name tag with "Wang Lao Liu" engraved on it, how ugly should that be? So he changed his name to "Wang Luoliu". To be honest, this name is not a good name, but it sounds and looks, it is much more decent than the nickname "Wang Lao Liu". Wang Luoliu was most jealous of others making fun of his former name in his life. In Feiyun City, there are not many people who know the name "Wang Lao Liu", and even if they know, why bother to shame others?

Liao Qifeng's loud voice just now can be regarded as touching Wang Luoliu's "reverse scale".

Wang Luoliu pulled his face and was about to get angry, Xiao Tianhe hurriedly smiled and persuaded: "Okay, okay, why bother to make a big fuss about a title? Isn't it just 'little chicken'? In fact, whether it is a big name, a small name or a nickname, everything is just a code name, so you don't have to worry too much about it. ”

"Hmph!" Liao Qifeng withdrew his fist.

Seeing this, Wang Luoliu didn't want to have another seizure. As the so-called "raise your hand and don't hit the smiling person", he himself didn't expect that the humiliated Xiao Tianhe was not only not angry, but also full of spring breeze. In addition, Xiao Tianhe's sentence "All titles are just a code name, don't care too much" is very much in line with Wang Luoliu's mind. "This 'chicken' brother is right, whether the name is good or not has nothing to do with this person's appearance, strength, power, status, wealth, etc.," Wang Luo said.

"Then I'll call you 'Lao Wang' too!" Xiao Tianhe had a faint smile on his face, and seemed to inadvertently drag the word "bar" a little, calling Wang Luoliu directly an old turtle.

"Hahaha!" Liao Qifeng and the three of them burst into laughter directly, and Sun Hailiang secretly gave Xiao Tianhe a thumbs up. The irony of not being angry and rude to treat others in the way of others, and not making people angry about it, is so wonderful!

"You!" Wang Luoliu was so angry that his face turned red and white for a while, but he just agreed with the view that "the title is just a code name", and now it would be too cheap to be angry because of the title. He glared at Xiao Tianhe viciously, hating to swallow this nasty "chicken" in a mouthful. "The table in the corner!" he said angrily.

"Hey, I said, 'Lao Wang-eight', there are not many guests today, we want a private room!" Liao Qifeng said with a smile.

"The box is there, but it can't be given to you. It's still early, how do you know that there are no guests coming later? We give priority to taking care of fellow immortal cultivators in the box, after all, some people will soon be rotated away. As for you, hehe, the future is long. Wang Luoliu put on an attitude of being angry and not paying for his life.

Sun Hailiang pulled Liao Qifeng, who was angry with his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Accompany Xiao ...... today Accompany the Ji brothers to drink, so don't get into trouble. The corner is the corner, at least he doesn't dare to give the next time. ”

"He doesn't dare to measure it! Come to the four altars of immortal clouds and cranes, one product and eight dishes of snacks, and you are not allowed to miss two catties! The wine money is recorded in my account!" Liao Qifeng finished ordering the wine and food in a cold voice, glanced at Wang Luoliu again, and sat down with the three of them on a slightly worn wooden table in the corner.

The farce ended, and the guests stopped paying attention to these people. After a while, the wine and food were all served, and the four of them raised their glasses and drank bitterly.

To say that the fine wine "Xianyun Crane" in the Yuyu world tastes really good. Xiao Tianhe tasted it, and felt that its taste was no better than the famous wine of Kanglong County in the Qinglong Continent - Drunken Sea Wave. The eight "one product" appetizers are meat and vegetarian, with color, flavor and flavor, and the amount is also very sufficient. It's been a long time since I've eaten and drunk so comfortably, and Xiao Tianhe is in a good mood.

"Brother Lu, do you know that powerful guy who flew up from the Immortal Clan is a man or a woman?"

Lu Xiaoyan's mouth was full, and he replied vaguely: "It seems to be a man, I don't know very well." ”

"Oh. Xiao Tianhe nodded. "I really hope that person is Brother Yao! But according to Brother Yao's ability, it shouldn't take ......that long to adapt to coercion," he thought to himself.

"Brother Xiao, there is actually no difference between men and women, and a person who can come out after only nine years in the triple house, even if he is a woman, will not be weak. Sun Hailiang seems to be mistaken.

"Yes, Brother Xiao, if you are really a woman at that time, don't you can't bear to do it because of that boring morality!" Liao Qifeng also persuaded.

Xiao Tianhe shook his head and smiled, where did he think of this?"Don't worry, isn't it a competition? No matter who the opponent is, I will definitely do my best." ”

"Then I wish Brother Xiao a smooth game. Come on, let's have a drink!" Liao Qifeng didn't even dare to say that he wished Xiao Tianhe a victory in the competition. It seemed that they had almost decided that Xiao Tianhe was unlikely to defeat the opponent who had only been accustomed to the Mie House for nine years.

After three rounds of drinking, Xiao Tianhe asked while eating, "Brother Liao, Brother Sun, when you came to Wanxian Mansion in the past, were you also sneered at by the shopkeeper or other immortal cultivators?"

"No, so we don't usually come here if it's fine. It's not because I'm afraid of them, I just don't want to make trouble. Liao Qifeng said.

"You are the captain and deputy captain of the Demon Army's Feiyun District Receiving Team, why don't they even give a little face?"

Liao Qifeng and Sun Hailiang glanced at each other, and Qi Qi shook his head and smiled bitterly. Sun Hailiang said: "Don't mention the false titles of 'captain' and 'vice-captain', because no one has been promoted for many years, the so-called 'leading team' is just an errand with nothing to do." I'm not afraid of Brother Xiao's jokes, in fact, there are just three of us in the team. ”

Xiao Tianhe happened to be drinking, and almost squirted out when he heard this. There are only three people in total, a captain, a deputy captain, and Lu Xiaoyan is in charge of Lu Xiaoyan alone? This is inevitably too funny, so funny that it is even a little pitiful.

"How many people are there in the Immortal Army's leading team?"

"That's a lot more. The team is a group of people who alternate every two hundred years, and if they accept the Ascended during this period, they can be replaced after half a year. Each of the three groups of Demon Dao Guides before us was transferred after completing their duty period of two hundred years. Unlike the leading team of the Immortal Army, the longest is only eighty or ninety years, and a batch will inevitably be rotated. Lu Xiaoyan explained.

Two hundred years is a shift, this time is really long, and it has already caught up with the maximum number of years of a cultivator in the Great Red Realm. For two hundred years, it must feel uncomfortable to stay in a new Wangpo without fellow ascenders, and to suffer from the ridicule of immortal cultivators. No wonder Liao Qifeng and the three of them were so elated when they saw Xiao Tianhe, because they didn't have to stay here to suffer after half a year.

"Then these guests, including the shopkeeper, are all from the Immortal Army?"

"Of course not. The Ascenders all appear one by one, and the interval is relatively long, where do so many people need to be guided? The significance of the Flying Cloud Zone is actually not only to attract the Ascenders of the Nether Realm. A long, long time ago, when the demon clan had not yet risen and the immortal clan and the demon clan were evenly matched, because this place was located at the junction of the two domains of immortals and demons, and it was one of the ascension areas, so this was the place where the two clans must fight. It wasn't until later that the immortals and demons made an agreement to set the Ascension Zone as the Peace Zone. Both the Immortal Army and the Demon Army have many people stationed in the Feiyun District, and everyone is doing their duty. It's just that later, the way of my Great Demon fell, and the leaders of the Demon Army even stopped allocating funds and reduced their manpower, while the Immortal Army invested in a lot of construction and built this Feiyun City. We had to settle down in our tents. Liao Qifeng concisely told the past of Feiyun District.

"Listen to what Brother Liao means, are there other Ascension Zones?" Xiao Tianhe's eyes widened.

"That's right. Originally, the two immortal and demon clans each had four ascension zones, but they were later destroyed by the demon clan. Now there are three Ascension Zones left. The ascension area of my demon clan is Xinwangpo in Feiyun District, Wave Cave in Luoxia District, and Wanle Peak in Star-picking District. The three flying areas of the immortal clan are also Feiyun, Luoxia, and Star-picking, but the locations are different, namely Huaiji Valley, Langjuan Beach, and Falling Sun Cliff. Liao Qifeng replied.

Xiao Tianhe nodded, it seems that even if Tianyao and them ascend, it may not necessarily fly to Huaiji Valley. "But it's really interesting, several Ascension Zones of the Immortal and Demon Clans appear in pairs in the same area. Could there be such a coincidence?I'm afraid that the two ancestors of the black sword and the white sword did it deliberately!" Xiao Tianhe thought to himself. After all, this kind of thing is not something that ordinary people can do, at least with the ability of the people of the Yu Yu Realm, it is unattainable. But it is estimated that the destruction should be relatively easy, otherwise it will not be destroyed by the demon clan.

Just as Xiao Tianhe was thinking, a sharp voice came into his ears, piercing the eardrum and making his eardrum hurt: "Yo, isn't this Captain Liao and Deputy Team Sun, and Xiao Luzi is also there." Tsk, the demon army has led the team members together, this meeting is really 'rare and grand', hahaha!"
