Chapter 9: The Black Wind Ridge Attack

chatted with Li Xuanshan, and when the sun was about to set, the conversation between the two finally ended. In fact, most of the time it was Li Xuanshan who was talking, and Li Xuangang was listening.

After nightfall, the caravan did not stop, but continued on its way.

The leader of the caravan this time was Li Xuangang's second uncle, Li Qingyang, who was a cultivator of the ninth layer of qi refining.

In addition, there are forty-three people from the Li clan in the entire caravan, of which there are nine monks in the late stage of qi refining, and the rest are all monks in the middle stage of qi refining, and the clansmen in the early stage of qi refining generally do not join the caravan's escort mission.

Eleven earth-horse beasts walked on the road, looking quite leisurely.

About half a month later, the outline of a fang market gradually appeared in front of the caravan, it was Tianhefang City.

Walking to the vicinity of Tianhefang City, the road for the caravan to walk became much wider, and at first glance it seemed enough for more than ten caravans like the Li family to walk side by side, but this place did not appear empty because of this, but it was more crowded, because other teams and monks appeared around.

There were caravans of his family here, and there were also scattered cultivators, but although there were many people, they were in order. It was an order maintained by violence, and there had been attempts to break it, but he was soon cleaned up by the administrators of Tianhefang City.

Any fang market has this kind of rule, otherwise how can the fang market still run.

Li Xuangang did not sit on the top of the goods as before, but walked on the ground with the other clansmen, guarding the side of the carriage.

Li Xuangang's face was grim, his eyes didn't seem to be looking around, but he was actually paying attention to the monks around him all the time.

Tianhefang City is considered part of the Li family's property, because Tianhefang City is jointly owned by four nearby Zhuji families and one Jindan family.

About 200 years ago, there was a turmoil in Tianhefang City caused by scattered cultivation, and the scale of the turmoil was very large, and Tianhefang City was basically destroyed.

After the unrest was quelled, the rebuilding of a new Tianhefang city was put on the agenda.

In the end, led by the Jindan family of the Qing Yuanshan Wang family, several Zhuji families were brought together to rebuild the new Tianhefang City.

At that time, the Li family seized the opportunity and spent a lot of effort in the construction of the new Fang City, becoming one of these foundation-building families.

Of course, this is inevitably full of conflicts of interest, blood and sacrifice. In order to become one of the owners of Tianhefang City, the Li family paid the price of more than thirty clansmen at that time, among which even sacrificed one foundation building elder and nine late qi refining stage cultivators.

Even so, the Li family still does not have enough foundation compared to the other four Zhuji families, so in the end, the Li family's share in Tianhefang City is also the least.

However, under the deterrence of the Jindan family of the Qing Yuanshan royal family, Tianhefang City has flourished in the past two hundred years, attracting a lot of loose cultivation, even if it is still not as good as Binhaifang City, Wujiangfang City and other large markets, but it is already quite large-scale.

Tianhefang City is of great significance to the Li family, every year only by renting to the shops and caves in the city, the Li family can get more than 2,000 lower grade spirit stones, this is not counting the income of the Li family's own shop in Tianhefang City, if it is calculated in total, the Li family can earn about 3,000 spirit stones in Tianhefang City every year.

A large part of the reason why the Li family has been able to continue to develop in the past hundred years is due to Tianhefang City.

When the Li family's caravan arrived at the entrance of Tianhefang City, the Li family's clansmen in Tianhefang City had already come to meet them, led by the elders of Li Xuangang's Qingzi generation, named Li Qingtian, who ranked thirteenth in the Qing generation.

After exchanging a few words with Li Qingyang, he instructed the clansmen behind him to unload the goods on the carriage, and Li Qingyang also asked the people in the caravan to help unload it.

Li Xuangang also unloaded a cart of Linggu, and then handed it over to the clansmen of Tianhefang City.

This unloading lasted for half a day, and by the time the whole unloading was completed, more than half of the caravan had been lost, and the remaining half was to be transported to the city of Binhaifang.

The caravan did not enter Tianhefang City, but after handing over to the clansmen of Tianhefang City, Li Qingyang returned all the remaining goods to the carriage of the four earth horse beasts, and then handed over the remaining seven to the clansmen of Fang City, and later Tianhefang City would use these earth horses and beasts to transport some of the resources needed by Taiqiu Mountain back.

By the time Li Qingyang left Tianhefang City with the caravan again, there were only twenty clansmen left around him, including Li Xuangang and Li Xuanshan.

Some of the rest of the people were going to the clan shops in Tianhefang City to carry out tasks, and some were to assist the clansmen in Tianhefang City to transport resources back to Taiqiu Mountain.

The process of escorting the caravan was actually very boring, and occasionally Li Xuangang could see the caravans of other families on the road to relieve his boredom, and most of the time the surroundings were unchanged.

And you can't cultivate yourself, in a field like this where there is no spiritual vein, there is no spiritual energy to support the cultivation of the monk at all, and if you want to cultivate, you can only rely on absorbing the spiritual energy in the spiritual stone.

However, following the caravan this time is the task of the guards, and there is no way to meditate and cultivate.

After leaving Tianhefang City, the caravan walked for another half a month.

Suddenly, Li Qingyang stopped the caravan and beckoned twenty clansmen to remind:

"This place is the Black Wind Ridge, it is not very peaceful, some scattered cultivators specialize in plundering here, but this place is the only way to go to Binhaifang City, so there is no way to avoid it. Although many of us have been here a few times, I still have to be wary to be vigilant before we go in. ”

Li Qingyang has short hair, a square face and a wide mouth, and his speech is full of anger and majesty. At this time, listening to his very serious tone, the clansmen in the caravan who participated in the escort mission for the first time couldn't help but become nervous.

Li Qingyang patted the storage bag, took out a mixed yuan iron rod more than one person high, held it in his hand, and shouted: "Let's go." ”

The small caravan of the Li family, under the leadership of Li Qingyang, entered the Black Wind Ridge.

The entrance to the Black Wind Ridge was a canyon, and as soon as Li Xuangan entered, he felt a gust of wind, blowing on his face.

......

Although the caravan was already very cautious, when it reached the middle of the Black Wind Ridge, it was still ambushed by a group of scattered cultivators.

However, because Li Qingyang had already given a stern reminder before, Li Xuangang and they also had some precautions, although they did not completely avoid the sneak attack of the multi-layer earth thorn formation set up by scattered cultivation, but fortunately, there were no big losses.

Except for the three fifth-layer Qi refining disciples who did not react in time, who were stabbed by the earth thorns that suddenly appeared, the rest of the people, including the four earth horse beasts, were unharmed.

Li Qingyang deserved to be the leader of Li Jiaqing's generation, and his powerful spiritual power perception woke up the clansmen as soon as the Earth Thorn Array was launched.

Obviously ambushed, Li Xuangang and the other clansmen did not dare to be careless, and after retreating to a safe range, they drove the earth horse beast together and gathered in the center of the crowd.

Someone in the clan quickly took out a set of magic circles and unfolded them, only to see a layer of water-blue light curtain visible to the naked eye protecting the four earth horse beasts.

The Soil Horse Beast is a precious resource of the family, and it cannot be lost, and the Soil Horse Beast is still carrying the goods transported to Marina Fang City.

While Li Qingyang was on guard, he arranged for five clansmen in the middle stage of Qi refining to be responsible for protecting the Earth Horse Beast.

And he took the rest of his clansmen and stood in the way.

Li Xuangang also took out the Aoki sword, and the surging spiritual power surged on his body.

The large area of dust caused by the multiple earth thorn arrays gradually dissipated, and the figures of a bunch of monks gradually emerged from the opposite side of Li Xuangang.

These people were all wearing masks, and Li Xuangang tried to probe with his divine sense, but found that the face was strange, and his divine sense could not penetrate it.

There were about thirty monks who came, and there were all kinds of cultivators, and Li Xuangang also found three monks of the third level of qi refining inside.

Li Qingyang took a step forward with the Mixed Yuan Iron Rod, and the cultivation of the ninth layer of Qi refining was fully revealed.

"It's really bold, even our Li family's goods dare to rob. ”

When the monk on the opposite side heard this, he let out a sneer:

"It's not the first robbery, since you Daoists are here with your heads, you can't go back empty-handed, not to mention your Taiqiu Li family, even the Ghoul Sect, we will also rob you. ”

Li Xuangang believed this, the resources of casual cultivation were tight, and cultivation was extremely difficult, and there were some guys with unscrupulous intentions who often engaged in such transactions in order to quickly obtain a large amount of cultivation resources.

As long as the hands and feet are clean enough, they can't be traced back to their heads afterwards, and even the Ghoul Sect can't do anything about it.

In the past, several families were robbed in the Black Wind Ridge, and even the clansmen who escorted the caravan did not escape the poisonous hands, and they died.

These families teamed up to carry out a purge of the Black Wind Ridge, and indeed killed several batches of loose cultivators, but after a year or two, the Black Wind Ridge returned to normal.

The Black Wind Ridge is located on the only road in Binhai Fang City, and scattered cultivation has always existed, so looting in the Black Wind Ridge is unavoidable.

The only solution is to strengthen the caravan escort.

Li Qingyang secretly used his aura, and then reminded the surrounding clansmen in a low voice.

"I can't avoid a fight later, and I will try to drag down the three Qi Refining Ninth Layer cultivators on the opposite side, if you have the opportunity, you can kill as many as you want, and you can't keep your hands. ”

Li Xuangang knew that the second uncle, Li Qingyang, was known for his superior combat power in the family, but he didn't expect that he would have the confidence to drag three monks of the same rank with the strength of one person.

The scattered cultivators on the opposite side began to approach, and Li Xuanshan, who was standing next to Li Xuangang, was holding a beheading knife in his hand, and there was a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

"Attention, we focus on defense, hold the formation, never rush in, give the opponent a chance to break through. ”

At the last moment of this crisis, Li Qingyang reminded him one last time.

Then there was a sound of gold and iron intersecting in the Black Wind Ridge.

The turbulent aura fluctuations frightened away many beasts nearby.
