Chapter 294: Sudden Change
Originally, Hou Ruoting has always had an ambiguous sense of affection for her feelings since she performed the martial arts meeting, especially after several twists and turns, every time she sees Wan Peng, she will reveal more and more obvious dependence. In fact, Wan Peng himself also knows that if he really has the heart to get close to Hou Ruoting emotionally between men and women, it is also a matter of course.
However, Wan Peng always felt that there was still something missing between himself and Hou Ruoting. On the contrary, for Xie Ting, Wan Peng is full of warmth from the bottom of his heart, and his willingness to care and protect is even stronger.
Therefore, Wan Peng also understands Hou Ruoting's expressions. After all, when a woman likes other people, she suddenly finds that the person she likes has another sweetheart, and jealousy is inevitable. If it weren't for the fact that Hou Ruoting has experienced too many other changes recently, I am afraid that according to her character, there would have been some positive conflicts between her and Xie Ting.
"Senior sister, where do you speak. Although Wan Peng said this, he didn't let go of Xie Ting's hand, "We were really talking about something just now, so I felt that Senior Sister was coming, and I didn't invite Senior Sister to enter." ā
Hou Ruoting's displeasure was even more obvious at this time, "Could it be that the matter between the two of you, I, the senior sister, can't listen to it?"
Wan Peng smiled very relaxedly, "Senior sister, it's inconvenient for me to answer this question." But we're not talking about two people, we're talking about Lingyun. Now Lingyun is managed and developed by you, I am just afraid that Xie Ting does not know Lingyun well, and if she says something wrong, there will be a misunderstanding in my senior sister's heart. ā
"Hmph. Hou Ruoting glanced at Xie Ting, "If you should misunderstand, sooner or later, you will misunderstand." There will be no misunderstanding, never misunderstanding. ā
Xie Ting didn't say anything, but at this time, she suddenly smiled faintly. Wan Peng sighed lightly and bypassed the topic, "Senior sister, what's the matter here?"
"I've found all five of the people you recommended. However, Jiang Su and Li Zhen seem to be more obsessed with technical work, and are reluctant to come to Lingyun City to be responsible for management. I would like to ask you to help with the work then. ā
Wan Peng nodded slightly, and before he could speak, he heard a person outside running in a panic, shouting as he ran, "City Lord, City Lord, it's not good, it's not good!"
At this time, the faces of the three changed and turned to the direction of the gate. The person who ran over was a scout from Lingyun City, and after passing the door, after standing still, he swallowed his saliva, "City Lord, thirty miles northwest of Lingyun, a demon army suddenly appeared, and two small sects have been swept away so far, and the target seems to be Lingyun City!"
Hou Ruoting frowned and turned to Wan Peng. Wan Peng was obviously much calmer than her, and asked, "What is the specific number?"
The scout replied, "There are about five thousand in number, and the leading demon is said to be at the level of a first-class demon school." ā
The first-level demon school, from cultivation to level, is equivalent to the golden pill of cultivators. However, it is really a polemic power, and it may only be like a foundation building period cultivator, or it may surpass a Yuan Infant cultivator. This has to do with the race of demons. However, generally speaking, a demon who leads so many troops must be not badly cultivated.
"You go and gather up the troops, I'll go and see first. Wan Peng took a deep breath and turned to Xie Ting, "You can wait for me here." ā
Xie Ting nodded, and used a little more force when she pulled Wanpeng in her hand. Hou Ruoting saw this detail in her eyes, and was a little displeased. But she didn't say anything more and walked straight out the door. Wan Peng also rose up and flew towards the northwest.
In the northwest direction, there is indeed a group of demon troops, but it seems that they have just swept away a sect and are currently resting. Their commander, who was also sitting in the army now, sensed a cultivator coming in the air, and jumped directly to the sky at the front of the team, stopping at a position about a mile away from Wan Peng.
This demon school, as a whole, belongs to the short and fat kind, with a height of more than five feet, a body width of about four feet, a round head, and a round body, including arms and thighs, all have a round feeling. His clothes consisted mainly of a pair of trousers, two straps, crossed in front of and behind him, and eight large metal rivets riveted above the trouser belts. Looking closely at his head, there is a strand of hair in the middle of the head, all of which is erected upwards and back. The ears are fat, somewhat pointed, and have a noticeable tendency to radiate upwards. The face has round eyes and a big nose, but the lips are not thick, giving people a cute feeling.
"Rivet demon. Liyang said a little lazily, "I'm really looking for it." It turned out that the Rivet Demon was a demon slave of the royal family and was extremely loyal to the royal family, but since one time, a member of the royal family forcibly took possession of a woman in their family, the Rivet Demon Clan felt humiliated and left the royal family, and since then he has disappeared, and no one has seen him again until I left the demon world. I really don't know when they will be able to lead troops again. In the royal family, they have a nickname called riveting. Their combat strength is medium, as long as you hold out until Hou Ruoting's army arrives, this team of demons will definitely be defeated. ā
With this information, Wan Peng has a little bottom in his heart. Of course, Liyang's words also have another meaning, that is, he can't beat this riveting. However, if you can't beat it, can't you hold it up? Brother has something interesting to play, and he's also very good at it. But he suddenly thought again, with such a demon body, there are still people in the royal family who are sexually interested in female demons? I really don't know if the royal demon has quirks, or if he is too drunk.
"Riveting. Wan Peng opened his mouth and actually called the nickname of the rivet demon. And this is their nickname that only the royal family knows.
The rivet demon was obviously stunned for a moment, and then a suspicious expression appeared on his face, "You, who are you?
Wan Peng smiled faintly, and casually typed out a "leave" word inheritance trick, "Tianli Wan Peng." ā
"Tianli, Tianli?" the rivet demon trembled obviously, "Tianli! How could someone who left home be here? Moreover, he was still a person who could use the Separation Inheritance Technique!"
Wan Peng smiled, and his face became stern, "Then let me ask you, why are you here?"
The rivet demon wiped twice on both sides of his mouth with his fat hand, "I, I, I'm very simple, now, the demon world is in chaos, I heard that there is chaos in the cultivator world again, I have taken these subordinates and lived in seclusion for thousands of years, just want to come out and find a place, occupy a territory, row a mountain as the king, live a good life, save in the demon world, and always be under the prestige of the royal family." ā
Wan Peng sighed lightly, "Yes, if that's the case, then you're in the wrong place." This place was originally called Lingyun Mountain, but there was something wrong, and it was all flat. And that's not the point. The point is, this area has already been occupied by my Tianli family, if you really want to find another place in the cultivator world, I will build yƬ you go north from here for three hundred miles, there is a Kuding Mountain, the property is quite rich, and there are no major cultivator sects to disturb it, you and your subordinates can live a good life. ā
The rivet demon stood there thinking for a while, and the hesitation in his eyes was very obvious. He actually didn't want to give up this place, but Wan Peng came here alone to greet him, but it made him wonder, afraid that there would be a cha in the future. Finally, he still grinned, "Since it means that the sky is leaving home, then I should be obedient." Our ancestors have always said that it was good for us to leave home at that time. ā
Wan Peng also smiled, "Well, it's convenient for you and me." ā
The rivet demon made a gesture of leaving, and after he had already turned around, he turned back and walked directly to Wan Peng, but there was an extra piece of jade slip in his hand. "The person who left home in Tianli once handed over a piece of jade to my ancestor, and later my ancestor said that it is useless to us, and if there is a chance, it should be returned to Tianli. But in the demon world, the royal family has always rejected us extremely, and I don't dare to make another incident. See you here today, I might as well send it. ā
Wan Peng's face was calm and did not say anything. The rivet demon walked directly to Wan Peng and handed over the jade slip with both hands. Wan Peng took it and saw that this piece was smooth and moist, with a good texture, and it really looked like a royal thing. When he was about to input spiritual power, he felt a gust of wind in the back of his head.
Not good, there is Cha!
He instinctively lunged to the ground, but it was too late. The rivet demon had an extra sledgehammer in his hand at some point, and with lightning speed, he directly chased after Wan Peng's head. Wan Peng only felt that it was dark in front of him, flew forward directly, and then fell to the ground hard.
The Rivet Demon laughed at this time, "How about it, have you suffered hardship? Our Rivet Demon has cultivated this trick for thousands of years, just to be able to sneak attack your royal family." It seems that today is the first time I have succeeded! What Tianli, Apocalypse, Tianshan and Tianlan, in fact, are not good things!"
He laughed, raised his sledgehammer, and was about to chase downward. Thousands of years of method cultivation, coupled with a cultivation higher than Wan Peng, created Wan Peng's defeat at this time. At this time, although he could sense the rivet demon's imminent attack, he no longer had the ability to dodge.
The blow just now was so heavy that he could only lie on the ground now, and he didn't have half the strength to get up!
The hammer of the rivet demon is about to fall!
"Whoosh......" A few sharp sounds of breaking the sky came from afar, followed by several white spells, directly rushing towards the rivet demon. The rivet demon raised his head, first drove the spiritual power, and stiffly stopped the attack, then evaded a few times in a row, retreated more than ten zhang, and when he raised his head again, his brows were furrowed.
Because he saw the troops brought by Hou Ruoting.
No less than 10,000 people!
He didn't seem to expect that so many people would rush over in this short period of time. Although he could also see that there was no individual cultivation in that team who could compete with him, the movements of that team were surprisingly consistent, and the image of an elite team came out.
That's right, it is reasonable that people who have left home one day are here, and there is an elite force. And the thousands of people of his own, although there are quite a few of them, but in terms of training, they can't be compared with this force at all.
"Withdraw, change places!" he shouted, and the troops turned their heads and fled north.
