Chapter 1293: Earth Flame Spirit Fire
Huang Xiao had to pour cold water on Chen Xiangrong, speaking of which, he felt that Chen Xiangrong was really bold, he was such a shopkeeper of a 'business', just do business well, why did he have to participate in this affairs in the rivers and lakes, and he still wanted to get such a divine sword, this is not something he can have, even if he has it, it will bring disaster. I don't know how much it cost him to make the Yanshan Ou family sell this divine sword to him.
"I thought about getting this sword and then giving it to others to get their protection, but unfortunately I didn't get this sword in my hands yet, so they did it. Chen Xiangrong said.
"Oh, you originally planned to find the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' as a backer?" Huang Xiao heard the meaning of Chen Xiangrong's words.
"Isn't this unclear? We are just a 'business name', under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, but unfortunately the imperial court has been weak for many years, and many sects in the rivers and lakes are secretly ready to move, and they want to attack us, and there are many bright and dark threats, and the 'Heavenly Sword Sect', as the leader of the martial arts alliance, can get its protection, then you can rest assured." Chen Xiangrong said.
Hearing this, Huang Xiao was slightly puzzled in his heart and asked, "Do you really think so?"
Huang Xiao still couldn't see through the fat man in front of him in his heart, and he always felt that this person made him feel a little uncomfortable, but if he really wanted Huang Xiao to say something, he still couldn't express it.
Of course, according to Chen Xiangrong's identity as the shopkeeper of the 'business name', it is understandable that he does not know much about the forces in the rivers and lakes, in his opinion, the martial arts supreme is the most powerful existence in the rivers and lakes, as for the 'Sword Pavilion', he probably still doesn't understand.
This is in line with the identity of a person who is not a person in the rivers and lakes, Huang Xiao secretly laughed at himself in his heart, it seemed that he was thinking too much and suspicious, it seemed that it was the shadow left by being hunted down and killed during this time.
"Looking for a backer is naturally to find the most powerful, and ordinary treasures may not be able to impress the 'Heavenly Sword Sect', so I spent a huge price to get the Ou family's latest casting divine sword 'True Dragon'. Actually, I also want to unite the world's 'merchants', and when this joint firm's big shopkeeper, this also has to be dealt with up and down, isn't it? The imperial court is not easy to offend, and the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' is naturally even more difficult to offend. It's a pity that they don't have a chance with me now, but I still have to get this Excalibur, maybe this is the only treasure I have left. Chen Xiangrong said.
Huang Xiao shook his head a little speechlessly, this 'Heavenly Sword Sect' had already colluded with Lin Jian, so naturally there was no need for Chen Xiangrong, and now if he got the 'True Dragon', it would definitely not end too well.
However, Huang Xiao can't change anything about these things, he also persuaded him just now, Chen Xiangrong didn't listen, he didn't have anything to do, besides, he and Chen Xiangrong didn't have a deep friendship, and this persuasion just now can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.
"Someone!" Huang Xiao had just wanted to speak, when he heard a sound of footsteps outside, and walked towards this room.
"Shopkeeper!" a man stopped at the door and shouted in a low voice.
When Chen Xiangrong heard this voice, he smiled at Huang Xiao and said, "It's my person, Huang Daxia don't worry." ”
With that, Chen Xiangrong let the people outside in.
Pushing the door in was an old man, who was about the same age as Chen Xiangrong, but he looked unusually energetic, his face was ruddy, and his breath was long, but he was a master.
"It seems to be a master of the 'half-step martial arts realm'? It doesn't feel like it, it's a strange thing. Huang Xiao secretly looked at the old man who came in, and said secretly in his heart.
"Shopkeeper, it's great that you're okay, I thought you had an accident. The old man said.
"Thanks to this Huang Daxia for saving me, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me. Chen Xiangrong said with a smile, as he spoke, he pointed to the old man and said to Huang Xiao, "Huang Daxia, this is my 'Quartet Firm' Keqing Chu Wu, he is a master, Lin Jian doesn't know about this matter, this is my secret power." ”
Huang Xiao asked a little puzzled: "Shopkeeper Chen, this is your secret, why do you want to tell me?"
"Huang Daxia has saved my life, so there is no need to hide this. Chen Xiangrong said, "With Chu Wu here, I think my life should be saved, right?"
"Shopkeeper, don't worry, you saved my life back then, if anyone is not good to you this time, then you have to pass my level. Chu Wu said.
Huang Xiao probably knew that this Chu Wu was probably in trouble back then, and he happened to meet Chen Xiangrong. After receiving Chen Xiangrong's kindness, he will become this guest secretary, which is to protect Chen Xiangrong in secret.
However, now that the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' is meddling, even if Huang Xiao thinks that this Chu Wu's strength is good, it is not enough, no matter how the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' is said to be a martial arts supreme sect, and its strength is not as good as that of a force like the 'Sword Pavilion', it is enough to laugh at the rivers and lakes. Lin Jian and the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' definitely wanted to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, Chen Xiangrong didn't die, this was definitely not the result they wanted.
"Shopkeeper Chen, you have such a master to protect you, there should be no problem. I'll go back to the house first, don't forget, take me to Ou's house when the time comes. Huang Xiao stood up and said.
"Don't worry, Huang Daxia, as long as the Ou family is confirmed, I will inform you immediately, anyway, it is next door. Chen Xiangrong said with a smile.
Huang Xiao nodded, and then walked out of the room.
After returning to his room, Huang Xiao's heart became much calmer, he always had an inexplicable feeling now, in front of Chen Xiangrong and that Chu Wu, he was very uncomfortable, this feeling made him a little inexplicable.
Now that he was back in his room, Huang Xiao quickly laid out some soundproofing and anti-detection formations in his room, and only then did he feel a little calmer.
When Huang Xiao finished doing this, he sensed it a little, and found that he was no longer able to detect the situation in Chen Xiangrong's room next door, and it was obvious that Chu Wu had set up a formation to isolate the exploration of outsiders.
However, Huang Xiao was not surprised by this, after all, he did it all by himself.
And outside, these are also a means of protecting themselves, if there is no such means of isolating the detection, then even if you are in the house, the situation inside is probably clear to the people outside.
Huang Xiao didn't think about anything else, he took out the 'Phoenix Egg' and looked at it, and after finding that there was no change, his heart settled down a little.
Then he sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice.
When Huang Xiao returned to the room, Chen Xiangrong and Chu Wu naturally had something to say.
"My lord, what should my subordinates do next?" Chu Wu has changed his title to Chen Xiangrong now, and it is obvious that he is just one of Chen Xiangrong's subordinates, not some guest status.
"I don't want to reveal my identity yet, if you are by my side, it can be regarded as covering for me, at least when someone is looking for trouble with me, you can solve it. Chen Xiangrong said.
"Yes, my subordinates understand. Chu Wu said, "My lord, that person seems to have changed his face just now?"
"Well, it's Yi Rong, he shouldn't be so old, but this strength is not bad, I want to see what he is thinking. Chen Xiangrong said with a smile.
"My lord, although I can't know the true appearance of this person, but he is not very old, there are not many people in the rivers and lakes such a person, could it be Huang Xiao, the descendant of the 'Immortal Sword Monarch'?" Chu Wu said, "The subordinates learned that the kid's current trace has been temporarily lost, and he hasn't found it yet, but that kid should also come in the direction of Huangzhou, which is the same as the direction in which the adult came." ”
"I also had doubts, but it doesn't matter, he is still with us for the time being, and his identity can be found out slowly, without rush. Chen Xiangrong said.
Hearing that his adults said this, Chu Wu didn't say anything more.
When night fell, when Huang Xiao and Chen Xiangrong stayed in the inn, a secret room in the Ou family in Yanshan, fifty miles away, was brightly lit.
There were more than a dozen old men sitting around this secret room, and almost all of these old men's hair was gray, but the old man who sat in the first place had half-white hair and was even more extraordinary.
"So, Ou Zheng has already arrived in Jicheng?" asked the old man sitting at the top of the table.
One of the old men below hurriedly replied: "That's right, they just arrived today, they have already released their words, and when our 'True Dragon Sword' starts, they will come to the door to compete." ”
"It's really arrogant, is his Huangzhou Ou family really the same as before?"
"That's right, this time we must suppress it well, so that the people in the rivers and lakes know who the real Ou family is now. ”
......
The old man at the top of the list quietly listened to the people below arguing for a while, then coughed lightly and asked, "What about the others?"
"I have already arrived at the three families, and they all went to visit Ou Zheng, it seems that in their minds, they still agree with the Ou family in Huangzhou, and they will clean up together when the time comes. The old man below continued.
The others wanted to speak again, but after seeing the old man at the top signal for everyone to be quiet, they also held back.
"Not necessarily, don't they still understand the current situation? However, now the Ou family in Huangzhou still occupies the righteousness, and the three of them are the same as us, nominally they are still side branches, and it is a kind of etiquette to meet in the past. As long as we show strong enough strength, then Ou Zheng can only roll back to Huangzhou in a gray manner. ”
"The head of the family is wise!"
This time they are not only for the opening of the 'True Dragon Sword', but the main purpose is to use this to defeat the Huangzhou Ou family in one fell swoop, so that their Yanshan Ou family can replace the Huangzhou Ou family and become the head of the Ou family.
Therefore, this time, there will be a lot of Ou family branches distributed in other places to witness the duel between the Ou family in Huangzhou and the Ou family in Yanshan this time.
Although everyone knows the decline of the Huangzhou Ou family and the rise of the Yanshan Ou family, it is not easy for the Yanshan Ou family to replace the Huangzhou Ou family. At the very least, it has to be supported by their major branches, even if it is only verbal support.
"How sure is the 'True Dragon Sword' against the 'Heavenly Mandate Sword', third brother, you and I will be honest. Ochrome asked, staring at an old man in the lower position.
"Family master, according to the information I have obtained, the 'Heavenly Mandate Sword' was carefully forged by Ou Zheng, so I don't dare to be careless, I'm afraid it's five or five. The third said.
"Third brother, you are raising the enemy's morale and destroying your own prestige, how can their 'Heavenly Destiny Sword' be compared to your 'True Dragon Sword'?"
"That's it, then Ou Zheng is just the king and hegemon of their Huangzhou Ou family, how can it compare to your casting skills?"
It was only after hearing a light cough from Ou Chrome that the men fell silent.
Seeing Ou Chrome and everyone looking at him, the third child continued to explain: "Actually, everyone should know in their hearts that we didn't do our best to cast the 'True Dragon Sword' this time, after all, it was sold to the 'Sifang Firm', and it can only be regarded as average in terms of material and casting, but it was only when it was halfway through the casting that it was said that it was going to compete with Ou Zheng's 'Heavenly Mandate Sword', which was to add a piece of dragon scales to improve the power of this sword, but unfortunately it was not joined at the beginning after all, which caused the breath in the dragon scales to not be fully integrated' True Dragon Sword', so this 'True Dragon Sword' is not perfect. We have a 60% chance of winning at most, but the worst result I think is a draw, and I think that even if this 'True Dragon Sword' is not perfect, it will not lose to Ou Zheng's 'Heavenly Destiny Sword'. ”
"Sixty percent of the odds of winning are too low, although the outcome of this competition does not change our position as the head of the Ou family in Huangzhou, but if we lose, it is always not perfect, especially when Ou Zheng comes to provoke. They can't lose this time, and our Yanshan Ou family wants to make them have nothing to say, so they must win this time. Third child, you say, is there any way to increase the winning rate, at any cost. Ou Chrome said.
"If you want to increase the winning rate, then you can only let the breath in the dragon scales be completely integrated into the 'True Dragon Sword', only in this way can this divine sword become perfect, so that there is an eighty percent chance of winning. It's just that the cost is enormous. The third said.
"Okay, eighty percent of the odds are enough, say, what do you need?" said Ochrome.
"In order to be able to fuse the breath perfectly, the temperature of this flame needs to be higher, and the flame of ordinary forging is completely insufficient, if you use the 'Earth Flame Essence Fire', there is hope. After the third child finished speaking, he didn't say anything, waiting for Ou Chrome's answer.
It's just that when he said this, everyone present took a breath of cold air.
Ou Chrome's face was also a little ugly, and he frowned and said, "How much do you need?"
"You need to be sure to burn for at least half an hour. The third said.
"Half an hour, how many 'Geoflame Spirit Stones' do we need, do we have enough storage at home?" asked Ou Chrome.
"All the storage in the family is barely enough, and it is also extremely difficult to extract the 'Earth Flame Spirit Fire' from the 'Earth Flame Spirit Stone', and the consumption is extremely high, the family master, you still need to make a decision quickly, there are still five days to go, and it will take at least three days to extract the 'Earth Flame Spirit Fire', and the time cannot be consumed. The third said.
"This can't be done, the 'Earth Flame Spirit Stone' is so precious, with the inventory in the family, it is enough to cast ten 'True Dragon Sword', and it is too wasteful to use it to refine the 'Earth Flame Spirit Fire' now. ”
"That's right, the main function of the 'Earth Flame Spirit Stone' is to add and use it during the casting process, not to refine the 'Earth Flame Spirit Fire'. (To be continued.) )
