This time, the journey of hunting demons in the borderlands was a bit anticlimactic.
Before setting off, Jiang Wang wanted to try to see how far he could go into the wilderness alone with his sword, because he was deliberately involved in the forbidden area of life. But he was blocked 2,700 miles ago and had to turn back.
Something has changed in the border area, but Jiang Wang still doesn't know anything about it.
If he hadn't traveled 2,600 miles into the border wilderness and encountered eleven god-level combat powers one after another, he might have thought that the border wilderness was peaceful.
What is people’s impression of Bianhuang?
It is the frontline of the human race against the demon race. It is a very dangerous battlefield. There are many tragic stories that happened here. The two powerful countries of Jing and Mu joined forces to defend...
Then there was none.
For those who have never set foot in the wilderness, all feelings are too far away.
Judging from the density of monsters he encountered this time, it was difficult for Jiang Wang to imagine what it would be like once a real wave of monsters occurred.
And how did the sages defeat the catastrophic demonic tide in history?
Judging from Tu Hu's performance, Mu Guo must know something about the changes in the border area... What is it? Does Qi know the changes that are taking place in the border wilderness?
The powerful combat power of the demons is so prevalent in front of the restricted area of life. Is this a sign of a new wave of demons? Or is there some powerful demon being born?
Tu Hu did not stay at the Minhe Temple and did not entertain the envoys from all sides, so why did he come to the border wilderness?
Who is that being who is dealing with him in his mouth?
What does everything we encountered this time have to do with the "Finger-flicking Art of Creation and Destruction of Illusions and Demons"?
Jiang Wang now knows three of the eight great magic arts.
They are the "Blood Demon Art of Extinguishing Love and Desire", "The Art of Extinguishing Illusion Demons with a Finger", and "The Art of Seven Hate Demons".
The first two are from the same series at first glance, but the latter is slightly different, and I don’t know why. Perhaps the source of the Eight Great Magic Powers is divided into several factions internally?
I came to Bianhuang to build up my understanding of "demons", but more questions arose.
I can only keep it in my heart.
Although the sudden danger was unsettling, what concerned Jiang Wang even more was the news that Deng Yue was dead.
The fact that Deng Yue and the warden of the Prison Department of Qin State died at the same time in the wilderness is enough to illustrate the problem.
He finally knew why Zhao Rucheng, a descendant of Qin's exiled emperor, took the risk to stand on the river viewing platform in the first place.
This tired boy.
This boy has given up long ago and is not willing to sacrifice for those people and things in the past...
He had to stand up and use that method to protect himself and respond to Uncle Deng's departure.
He knew better than anyone else that Zhao Rucheng had given up everything a long time ago and just wanted to live in anonymity for the rest of his life. But now I am killing demons in the wilderness, fighting desperately on the battlefield, and practicing in Erdem.
Why does this world have to force people who don’t want to fight to fight to the death?
Jiang Wang had no answer.
In other words, he is not the person qualified to give the answer.
Under the gloomy sky, he left the border wilderness alone.
When we entered the wilderness, there was one person, a sword, and a black camel.
When we left the border wilderness, the black camels were gone, and the sound of their bells was buried in the wind and sand.
As expected, Yuwen Duo was guarding outside the line of life and death, and with him was a cavalry troop cruising nearby.
Seeing Jiang Wang, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Master Marquis is back! I was worried that you would be too busy to kill and miss the succession ceremony." The blue sea on this side of the line of life and death made Jiang Wang's heartstrings relax. He casually handed over the storage box: "Collected some evil demon heads."
When a demon dies and is dispersed into demonic energy, nothing can be left behind. So even if Jiang Wang personally killed several generals and demons at the level of God, he still didn't get any trophies. The only cast iron mace is also a relic of a human monk.
When demon hunters enter the wilderness, they usually only gain the heads of evil spirits.
It is true that the head of the Yin Demon is the raw material of the soul stone, but the soul stone is only useful in the border wilderness... For those who enter the border wilderness, it is naturally not worth a penny. For those who are not in the border wilderness, it can be said to be worthless. Therefore, its value is actually difficult to reflect.
However, both Jing and Mu will purchase the heads of the Yin Demon at a high price, which is equivalent to using financial expenditure to supplement the defense of life and death.
Yu Wenduo didn't even need to open the storage box to know that the number of Yin Demon heads contained in it was in the thousands. He smiled and said: "I will help you change the Dao Yuan Stone later."
"No need." Jiang Wang said casually: "The significance of the soul stone lies in the wilderness. I came to the grassland and had nothing to grow. These raw materials will be used as my personal gift to pay tribute to the children of the grassland for fighting against the demons. A great sacrifice.”
Yuwen Duo clenched the storage box in his hand and said solemnly: "In this case, I thank the Marquis on behalf of the soldiers on the border."
Regardless of the heads of these Yin demons, Jiang Wang's strength alone allowed him to go into the border wilderness and fight for so many days until he was injured before coming out. For the Mu Kingdom army stationed in this area, it also greatly reduced the defense. pressure.
Yuwen Duo's gratitude was sincere.
Jiang Wang just looked at the back of his hand with bulging veins and said, "Remember to return my storage box to me."
…
…
On the way back to the royal court, the horses galloped side by side, the wind filled with the breath of freedom. Yuwen Duo couldn't help but ask: "How far did the Marquis go into the wilderness? How did he get injured?"
"We haven't reached the restricted area of life yet." Jiang Wang was intoxicated with the vitality of the grassland and said casually: "We are surrounded by the combat power of eight gods."
"Eight?!" Yuwen Duo said in shock: "Are you sure you haven't entered the restricted area of life?"
"It's 2,600 miles away from the line of life and death, less than 2,700 miles away." Jiang Wang replied, then asked: "Do you know anything about the golden crown priest who presides over Minhe Temple?"
"Lord Tu Hutu?"
"Yes, I saw him this time."
Yuwen Duo was silent for a moment.
After a long while he said: "That's not someone I can talk to."
Jiang Wang was even more surprised. What is the origin of this Tu Hu?
Yuwen Duo, a reckless guy who is fearless and a true-blooded disciple of the Yuwen clan, doesn't even dare to have a conversation?
The position of the Golden Crown Priest and the Tu Family are not enough to support this kind of deterrence.
But there was just a smile on his face: "It seems that this is a very great person. I was a little rude before."
Yuwen Duo said seriously: "After this time, Mr. Hou had better not have too much contact with him. Otherwise, there will be a lot of unnecessary trouble."
Jiang Wang was surprised that Yuwen Duo would comment like this, so he asked: "Is a person who has a lot of troubles in his life actually presiding over an important diplomatic place like Minhe Temple?"
If this is the case, then he is really confused about Mu Ting's employment.
Whose official in charge of diplomacy is not the kind of person who is good at dancing and all-round? This kind of important position that can reflect the will of the country to a certain extent should not be held by a mess of people.
But Yuwen Duo stopped talking.
…
…
Jiang Wang deliberately waited until the end of the blessed land challenge on June 15th before setting off to the border wilderness.
There is no need to elaborate on how he easily defeated his opponent in the challenge of Blessed Land. After falling to Yunshan Paradise, which was ranked 69th, it was already very close to Donghaishan Paradise, which was ranked 72nd.
The main reason why we have to start from the last blessed land is to truly leave our own unique challenge track, and secondly to not miss the special output of any blessed land.
Beyond that…
He is also trying to build another combat system. He plans to use this combat system to conceal his identity in the fantasy world and at the same time, hit the ranking of the blessed land. It's not perfect yet, but it's no longer a problem to defeat these divine monks with the lowest ranking in the blessed land.
He set out on June 16, fought in the wilderness for five days, and returned to the Supreme Court on June 22. At this time, there are still several days before the succession ceremony of the Crowned High Priest begins.
Envoys from various countries have also arrived one after another.
The majestic and vast Minhe Temple became noisy after the envoys from various countries had settled in. Excellent diplomatic talents from various countries are at ease on such a stage. An envoy like Jiang Wang who practices cultivation behind closed doors and then goes to fight alone in the wilderness is truly an outlier.
As soon as Yuwen Duo arrived at the royal court, he hurriedly withdrew, not knowing what was important.
Jiang Wang returned alone to the courtyard where the Qi envoy lived. At this moment, all the injuries on his body had been taken care of and there was no hindrance.
Qiao Lin came forward eagerly and led the horse diligently. He later found out that he had ruined the Marquis' boast that day, and he felt very regretful. He wanted to rebuild the trust between himself and Mr. Hou, but unfortunately Mr. Hou turned around and went to the grassland, leaving him with nowhere to flatter him and feeling very disappointed.
"Master Hou, many people have been looking for you these days while you are away!" He said in a mysterious tone.
"Oh?" Jiang Wangwang smiled and said, "There must be a person from Chu among them."
In fact, after knowing that the Chu State's envoy to the grassland this time was Douzhao, he was already looking forward to this meeting.
When he first left Chudu, he and Douzhao had an appointment with God. If it hadn't been for this meeting on the grassland, he would have taken some time to go to Chu.
Even when he went to the frontier to hunt demons alone this time, he had the intention of sharpening his sword in preparation for the fight.
Facing an opponent like Dou Zhao, who dares to take it lightly?
And with Douzhao's bellicose attitude, it was perfectly normal for him to rush to the door first.
"Master Hou is wise!" Qiao Lin gave a thumbs up with admiration on his face: "Master Hou is really good at predicting things. How did you know that Zhong Liyan would come to you? He really comes here every two days to ask where you are. Not here, I haven’t come back yet.”
Zhong Liyan?
What's this guy doing here?
I'm not familiar with him either.
Isn’t the envoy from Chu State Dou Zhao? Temporary substitution?
Jiang Wang was stunned for a moment, but after all, it was not convenient to show surprise at this time, so he just said a vague "hmm".
Then he asked: "You said many people came to see me. Who else besides Chu people?"
"The people of Jing State are also here to visit you!" Qiao Lin boasted: "The reputation of Lord Marquis is known all over the world, and everyone is convinced. If there is a chance, who wouldn't want to see his true appearance? If I were not from Qi, I would not be lucky enough to be with you. Your Majesty, I will definitely try my best to visit you!"
Murong Longqie?
Jiang Wang took the initiative to ignore Qiao Lin's low-level flattery. He couldn't figure out what kind of intersection he had with Murong Longqie that would make him come to visit him.
Let’s interpret this as Jing’s diplomatic behavior.
Can……
Didn't the emperor give any diplomatic conditions before leaving? If we really want to talk about cooperation, alliances, etc., how can we talk about it if I don’t have any attitude from the top at all?
You have to find a way to obscure it...
While I was thinking about it, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the hospital: "Jiang Qingyang!"
But it was a female voice.
"The Jing people are here again!" Qiao Lin reminded in a low voice.
Jiang Wang had already heard who the person was, and when he turned around, he saw a bronze-skinned, muscular woman walking gracefully.
Wearing armor and robes, she walked with great momentum, almost carrying the wind and thunder.
But there was a smile on his face: "Ah, no, it should be called Jiang Wu'an!"
Jiang Wang also smiled: "Whether it's Qingyang or Wu'an, it's me, Jiang Wang. Miss Huang can be called whatever she wants."
Huang Sheli smiled: "Okay, Fairy Jiang!"
"...Uh." Jiang Wang choked.
Huang Sheli smiled even brighter. Her facial features are deep and there is a beauty that is rare in the Eastern Region. Her smile has an innate contagiousness that makes people grin and brighten their mood unconsciously.
As if the sun was shining through the clouds, he walked into the courtyard and held Jiang Wang's hand naturally: "Long time no see!"
Recalling the meeting at the Yellow River, it felt like a world away. Jiang Wang couldn't help but sigh, "Yeah, it's been two years in a flash."
Huang Relic asked himself, "It's sexy but not obscene, never greasy, the style of a gentleman", so he just held it for a moment and then let go, smiling: "Time flies, and Brother Jiang's grace is even better than before, I would like to jump to the dance quickly." Ten or twenty years from now, look at what Jiang Qingyang will look like at that time!"
Jiang Wang invited her into the main room and talked with him: "If Miss Huang can manage such a long time one day, please be merciful. Whether it is ten years or ten days, I want to experience it carefully. No I’d rather skip it.”
"It makes sense." Huang Sheli nodded repeatedly: "We have to go through it carefully."
Jiang Wang always felt that the two sides were not talking about the same thing.
After sitting down, he asked again: "I remember that your country seems to have General Murong as its envoy this time?"
"Yes, I came with you." Huang Sheli looked at him with a smile in his eyes: "Are you surprised, are you surprised?"
Zhao Meiren is in retreat, Chongxuan Meiren has not come, only Jiang Meiren is in front, so He should take a second look. Otherwise, wouldn’t this trip to the grassland be in vain?
"It's both." Jiang Wang smiled, and then said thoughtfully: "I think Miss Huang's energy is perfect, and she is about to become a god?"
Once Huang Relic, who possesses the ultimate magical power, comes to power, he will be such a powerful opponent. Jiang Wang is looking forward to how dazzling the reverse journey of flowering will be.
"It's still a little bit, not perfect enough." Huang Sheli muttered: "Otherwise, I'll just kick him down this time, and I'll come here by myself. It's annoying to me to do things."
Jiang Wang was a little amused: "Why does General Murong care about you?"
"You talk here and there whenever you go out!" Huang Sheli seemed dissatisfied for many days: "I came to see an old friend, what's the matter?"
"Master Hou!" Qiao Lin trotted over at this time: "People from Chu are here to write!"
He took a breath and added: "A letter of challenge, sent by Dou Zhao!"
Huang Relic's beautiful eyes shined at the side.
If he hadn't been a little reserved, he would have danced a magic pestle on the spot.
Dou Zhao versus Jiang Wang! What a beautiful scenery this is! It's a shame that I didn't listen to that zombie face. If I missed this battle today and in the future, wouldn't I regret it for the rest of my life?
Jiang Wang didn't bother to think about how the people of Chu came to know Zhongliyan and Douzhao. He was very happy when he heard that it was Douzhao's letter of challenge.
Stretching out his hand: "Send it over!"
Qiao Lin respectfully handed over this letter of challenge.
Jiang Wang opened it and saw that there was only one line in the text——
"Do you remember the appointment with Chu Capital?"
The font is not very neat, but it is arrogant and wanton, and it wants to burst out of the paper and kill you in the face.
He closed the letter of challenge, raised his eyes to look at Qiao Lin, and laughed loudly: "The letter from Chu is well said!"
