Chapter 149: Entering Society for the First Time
The sun was setting in the west, and the dusk was approaching, and a hint of red glow was shining in the sky.
At this moment, a purple light flashed, crumbling, as if the energy was exhausted, and it was about to go out and land.
"Xiao He, my soul power is insufficient! let's stop here for this today!" After three hours of extremely fast flight, Qi Yupeng's soul power in his body was about to be exhausted, so he shouted at Xiao He.
"Well~ Brother Qi has worked hard, let's go down!" Xiao He understood and nodded at him.
"Ten miles ahead is Phantom Moon City, we can go to the city for a night! But with my Zhou Tian Sword King's soul power, I can only get here! Then I have to walk!" Qi Yupeng turned his face sideways and said embarrassedly.
"It's out of the way! It just so happens that I haven't practiced with weight today!" Xiao He bared his teeth and smiled.
Before Xiao He could finish speaking, Qi Yupeng gave him a blank look and scolded secretly:
"I'll go! You guy is really shameless, I took you all the way! I'm idle, and I have a fucking heavy load, do you really want to exhaust me?"
"Ah~ I can't hold on!
"Ah~ Brother Qi, don't bring it so suddenly!"
......
Qi Yupeng's soul power was suddenly exhausted, the purple light of the purple sword instantly decreased, returned to its original color, and the two fell one after another.
"Xiao Yin! Come out quickly! It's up to you next!" Xiao He was flustered for a moment, the black light in his hand flashed, he raised the silver sword, and shouted.
"Tsk~"
As soon as the words fell, a series of crisp chirps sounded at Xiao He Tianling's cover, and an illusory silver worm rushed out, instantly merging into the silver sword, and his falling speed slowed down significantly.
"Xiao He, you bastard! deliberately left a hand to trap me!" Seeing this, Qi Yupeng was also angry, gritted his teeth, and scolded directly.
"Brother Qi, I didn't mean to! Listen to my explanation!" Xiao He was also embarrassed and quickly explained.
"Hmph, explain, fortunately, I also kept a hand!
Qi Yupeng sneered, Yidan entered, his soul power recovered a little in an instant, and the purple sword light in his hand recurred, holding him up and floating to the ground.
"Tsk~"
At this moment, the silver worm suddenly rushed out of the silver sword, his face was blue, he was out of breath, and he looked like he was about to die of exhaustion.
"Hmm, Xiaoyin, why did you come out? Aren't I?"
"Ah~"
Xiao He was also stunned, fell instantly, and because of the weight on his body, he smashed directly to the ground.
"Huh!"
"Ah~"
"Tsk~"
"Chirp~"
Xiao He fell into the bushes, startled the nesting and sleeping birds, and scattered away.
"Huh~"
After a while, a body with a blue nose and swollen face pushed through the tree layer, unable to climb out of it, very embarrassed.
"Haha~ Xiaohe, being smart is mistaken by being smart, get up! What about the weight-bearing cultivation that you said?" At this time, Qi Yupeng stretched out his hand to him and said with a smile.
"Phew!" Xiao He made a bitter face, spit out a mouthful of bird feathers directly, ignored him, and got up on his own.
"Huh~"
But his body was too heavy, and he staggered and fell into the bushes again.
"Haha~ Brother Xiao, you are carrying a heavy load, but the road is far away, let me help you get up!"
Qi Yupeng laughed and lifted him up.
"Let's go!"
With that, Qi Yupeng took the purple sword behind him and walked in one direction.
Xiao He was also helpless, the soul power in his body gushed out, the wind was born under his feet, the weight on his body was reduced, and he strode to keep up.
An hour later, the outline of a giant city slowly emerged, with neon flashes, reflecting the major palaces and towers, which was very spectacular and magnificent.
After a while, two figures appeared one after another, one with a relaxed stride forward, while the other with a low waist and a very decadent appearance, appeared together in front of a hotel.
At this time, the shopkeeper saw the two of them looking at him, and he was happy, and stepped forward to ask:
"Two guest officers, are you going to stay? We have a good room here, and you are satisfied!"
"Hmm~"
Qi Yupeng nodded lightly, and continued:
"Boss, how much does it cost for you to stay here?"
Who knows, the boss stretched out a finger and said with a wicked smile:
"Sixty gold coins per person, if there are two guest officers, you can enjoy a special price, a total of one hundred gold coins!"
"Ah~100 gold coins!"
"Why the hell aren't you going to rob it?" Xiao He was also shocked and scolded secretly.
Qi Yupeng was also stunned, but looking at the dark and oppressive night around him, the black light in his hand flashed, and a small bag of gold coins appeared in his hand and handed it to the store.
After hearing this, Xiao He directly grabbed him, shook his head and said:
"Brother Qi, let's go! This store is too dark! Ten gold coins a night in Dongyang City is expensive, and it's obviously eating people here!"
"What, the two guest officers don't want to? Further on, the commercial area, the price of accommodation has doubled, the guest officer has to think about it, now I only have one last room left!" At this time, the store also came forward to remind.
"Boom~da"
"Boom~da"
......
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind him, and he was rushing this way.
Seeing this, the store was also proud, and said:
"Look, say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive!
"Brother Qi!" Xiao He was penniless, and his heart was suddenly inexplicably anxious, so he turned his head to look at Qi Yupeng with a look of anticipation.
"Take it! a hundred gold coins!" Qi Yupeng shook his head helplessly and handed the gold coins out again.
"Xiao Er, take the two guest officers to find a room!" The hotel owner smiled, took it happily, and shouted in a hissing voice.
"Okay! The guest officer, please!" The shopkeeper came over, put on a posture of invitation, led the way in front, and led the two into a room that was not too big.
"Xiao Er, bring these three guests in too!"
Suddenly, the boss's call sounded again, and the shopkeeper rushed out of the door.
"Damn! It's really a profiteer!" Xiao He rolled his eyes on the spot, revealing disdain, and stretched out his right hand at the back of the shopkeeper who was hurrying away, and decisively raised his middle finger!
"Haha~ Xiaohe, the people in society are sinister, it's not strange to see more! Hurry up and take off the heavy armor you are wearing, wash and rest! Continue to hurry tomorrow!" Qi Yupeng laughed and motioned for him to stop and rest.
"Oh~"
Xiao He was also stunned, and then turned to look at Qi Yupeng, and said embarrassedly:
"Brother Qi, this time you have to break the bank!"
"Don't get in the way, my money is okay!" Qi Yupeng didn't care too much, and waved his hand.
"It's just that I'm penniless now, hehe~ So I have to rely on you in the back, big brother!" Who knows He suddenly scratched his head, smiled awkwardly, and said.
"Damn, I said Brother Xiao, don't take such a tricky person, right? Just by relying on my sword to fly to the land of Chilian, it will take more than ten days to travel, to say the least, you dare to say that you are penniless, this is too shameless!" Qi Yupeng was a little unhappy in an instant, and his face was disgusted.
"Uh~ I don't know how did you get the money when Brother Qi was on the mainland for so many years? I want to get some money myself and then go to the land of Chilian, how about it?"
Qi Yupeng was also stunned, his body was stunned, and he returned:
"I made a living watching the hunting of soul beasts, but I also made a lot of money! But now, it's almost all spent by me! I can't last a few days!"
"However, in these big cities, you can get paid quickly by refining pills or participating in sword fighting competitions, and it is very lucrative!"
"Alchemy, sword fighting?" Xiao He was surprised, his brows furrowed slightly.
"Well, the elixir is very popular! Didn't your master pass on a lot of unilateral methods to you? You can try it, and the second is the sword fighting competition, and the winner can get a rich reward and reap the glory. And the loser is not so lucky, while being spurned, it is likely to be seriously injured and disabled, after all, the sword blade has no eyes, but throughout the ages, fighting with others is always the best way to improve strength!" Qi Yupeng nodded lightly and returned.
"Hmm~ I know this!" Xiao He nodded, empathetic.
"Huh?" Qi Yupeng was also surprised, and looked at him in great surprise.
At this time, Xiao He couldn't help but think of himself breaking into the primeval forest alone, fighting to the death with soul beasts, experiencing near-death situations several times, and almost losing his life.
But it is precisely because of this that in just two months, he has broken through the four levels, which shows the importance of fighting.
There are still two years to go, and he needs to improve his strength as soon as possible and become stronger, otherwise the gap with Lu Xiansheng will only widen.
After all, Lu Xiansheng's own strength is one level stronger than his own, and coupled with his status as an inner disciple of the Fire Sword Sect, he is definitely the best cultivation method.
And he himself has nothing, he is out of the house, and he doesn't even have any money, let alone defeat Lu Xiansheng.
But right now, the sword fighting competition is definitely a great opportunity! Only by constantly fighting can it be possible to catch up with Lu Xiansheng, defeat him, and win back everything that belongs to you!
After some contemplation, Xiao He seemed to see hope, and with a resolute face, he said:
"Brother Qi, I've decided! I'm going to participate in the sword fighting competition!
Hearing Xiao He's decision, Qi Yupeng was a little shocked, his brows furrowed, his face became solemn, and he reminded:
"Xiao He, you have thought about it! Sword fighting is not a joke, there is no so-called point to the end, but it is very dangerous, the heavy one will even lose his life, and the light one will be crippled for life!"
"Hmm~ I know!"
Xiao He nodded, remembering Lu Xiansheng's unruly face the day before yesterday, his face suddenly changed, his fists clenched tightly, his heart was already filled with anger, and he said in a deep voice:
"But if I don't get stronger as soon as possible! Two years later, if I lose the battle against Lu Xiansheng, it's not like I have to be ravaged by him, humiliated and killed? In the end, even my beloved will be implicated, wouldn't it be even more painful? So I must become stronger, no matter what way, even death!"
"Uncle, you have taken in a good apprentice! you will definitely be proud of him in the future!"
The resolute young man in front of him shocked Qi Yupeng and was moved, all his previous worries were dispelled, he smiled, and said:
"Okay! Courageous! Really worthy of being my uncle's personal disciple! Then let's become stronger together, and in two years, I will work with you to help you!"
"Brother Qi, this is not good! you will also be implicated!" Xiao He was a little embarrassed and unwilling.
"Haha~ What's this? I said, I regard your master as a living father, since the father is in trouble, as a child, how can he stand by?"
Who knew that Qi Yupeng laughed, and then, a trace of anger also appeared on his face.
