Three of the five figures were heading to the southwest. One of the old men glanced at the two people not far away and whispered:
"Fellow Daoist Fang, Fellow Daoist Wei, what business are you doing to go out in such a hurry?"
They all only have foundation building cultivation, and crossing the sea is actually very dangerous, so the old man asked this question.
"Why should Mr. Wu ask questions when he knows clearly?"
The person named Fang chuckled and replied in a low voice.
If an island wants to develop, it must also attract foreign forces to open shops on the island.
The potential of Jinghong Island is average. It took such a long time to attract five shops. These five people belong to those five shops respectively.
Although these shops make money in Jing Hong Island, their core interests are not completely consistent with Jing Hong Island.
When Xu Wen was around, they didn't dare to make any small moves. As soon as Xu Wen left, they immediately quietly ordered people to summon him.
It’s not necessarily that he wanted to tip off Yuehe Island, but he just instinctively attached importance to the information.
But this kind of behavior obviously makes it easy for Yuehe Island to get news in advance.
Knowing that Jinghongdao would not like this behavior, they set off quietly at night.
"We all have similar goals, why not come together so we can take care of each other?"
At this time, the man named Wei suggested in a low voice.
"good."
The other two looked at each other and agreed readily.
Mr. Hu took out a flying boat and agreed to take turns controlling it, and the three of them took the flying boat and sped away.
Tens of miles later, the speeding flying boat sank suddenly, as if an invisible big hand grabbed the flying boat.
No matter how the people inside cast spells, the flying boat just couldn't move.
This kind of method is definitely not something that a foundation-building monk can do. It must have been done by Master Jindan.
With a secret shock in his heart, Wu Boting hurriedly jumped out of the flying boat, saluted into the dark night and said:
"Which senior is here? We are just passing by, no offense intended?"
At the same time, Fang Kui and Wei Hong also appeared at the same time, their horns crossed, looking at the night sky warily.
He thought someone was going to deal with Jinghong Island, so as soon as he appeared, Fang Kui bowed and saluted the night sky respectfully:
"Senior, we are just a shop on Jinghong Island and have nothing to do with Jinghong Island!"
The other party did not show up, and after a long time, a voice that was somewhat familiar to them slowly sounded:
"The three shopkeepers said this, which makes me very disappointed!"
The three of them were immediately shocked, and Fang Kui, who had just spoken, was shaking like chaff. They were doing business on Jinghong Island, how could they not recognize Xu Wen's voice.
However, they never expected that Xu Wen, who had just set out with great fanfare in the morning, would be guarding here.
In the darkness, Xu Wen sneered secretly.
During the expedition, he was worried that the news would be leaked, so he did not leave immediately. Instead, he separated the fleet and guarded these directions.
Unexpectedly, he actually caught these people.
Although capital is only loyal to interests and not to individuals, it is really unacceptable for the other party to eat the food of Jinghong Island while trying to ruin Jinghong Island.
Slowly walking out of the darkness, looking at everyone coldly, Xu Wen said calmly:
"Jinghong Island is conquering Moon River Island. All parties are about to participate in the grand event. I want to recruit three of them to go together. What do you think of them?"
The three of them naturally didn't want to agree. They were shops. They opened their doors to all directions and everyone who came was a guest. They were absolutely neutral.
Participating in this war is equivalent to completely siding with Jinghong Island, which is very bad for yourself and the development of the shop.
But in the current situation, are they allowed to refuse?
I'm just afraid of saying "no" before speaking, and the next second I will die.
Wu Bo Ting and Wei Hong were still thinking about whether to give it a try, but Fang Kui had already taken the lead and bowed to the ground and said loudly:
"Every bad thing has been done on Yuehe Island, and both humans and gods are angry. Fang is willing to attach himself to Ji Wei, the master of Xu Island, and do his best to destroy them!"
Wu Boting and Wei Hong were both stunned.
Even if you want to join, you have to discuss the conditions and agree on the rewards for the mission. How can anyone be like Fang Kui, who is completely obedient to others.
Looking back at the two of them, Fang Kui could only say sorry secretly in his heart.
Who told me that I was the one who said those words just now without thinking about life and death?
If you don't act more proactively at this time, even if you agree to participate in the battle, you may die under a certain spell for no apparent reason.
He is very timid and does not want to die.
"Very good, shopkeeper Fang understands the righteousness!"
Xu Wen chuckled, nodded, turned to look at Wu Boting and Wei Hong, his voice was already a little chilly, and he said coldly:
"Where are the two shopkeepers?"
At this point, with such pig teammates, what kind of bibimbap can there be? Wu Boting and Wei Hong can only bow their heads and say yes.
"good!"
With a laugh, Xu Wen waved his sleeves, wrapped the three of them, and flew away to the west sea. Soon, two ships appeared in front of him.
After landing on the deck, Fang Kui and the others saw the other two shopkeepers.
While they were completely fine, the other two were in a bit of a state of misery, with blood stains all over their bodies.
Apparently, they tried to escape when they saw that Xu Wen did not come in person.
But on the endless sea, being intercepted by fellow monks and ships, it was obviously impossible to escape.
The five of them smiled bitterly at each other, and Xu Wen waved his hand and ordered the ship to move forward at full speed.
…
Yuehe Island is an island with mountains like a crescent moon and a clear river like a belt. It is famous for its beautiful scenery.
Because it is located near the shipping route, Yuehe Island originally had prosperous commerce and was an island where many sea ships stopped.
However, since the two evil men of the Moon and River occupied this island two hundred years ago, few ships have passed by here, and there are even fewer monks.
In a palace in Crescent Mountain, two Jindan masters, a man and a woman, were quarreling.
There were many Foundation Establishment monks around, but they all remained silent and listened quietly to the argument between the two.
"Fourth sister, don't be so stubborn. My parents are gone and never come back, which shows how powerful Jinghong Island is. If you still go to investigate, aren't you going to die in vain?"
Tie Changqi, who had a long face and narrow eyes, looked very ugly and persuaded the woman walking back and forth in the field.
"That is your real father and mother. They are gone forever, but you don't even have the courage to investigate. Are you still a man?"
Tie Jinyu, who had thick eyebrows and extremely high cheekbones, retorted angrily:
"Don't forget, they went there for your son!"
I don’t know how many times the two of them had quarreled. Half a year ago, the two villains from Yue and River went to Jinghong Island because of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Before, the two of them didn't take it too seriously.
In their opinion, in a poor place like Jinghong Island, if a golden elixir monk appeared out of nowhere, their parents would definitely be able to catch him.
Unexpectedly, I waited and waited, but no one came back.
If it were at other times, it is possible that the other party was delayed due to other matters, but since it was related to the Foundation Establishment Pill, it was impossible for the Moon and River duo to not return in time.
I haven't been back for such a long time, probably because I encountered something unexpected.
Tie Jinyu advocated dispatching the entire island to check, but Tie Changqi flatly opposed it.
The two men argued that they were right, but they couldn't convince each other.
Today, Tie Jinyu was about to set off alone, but was discovered by Tie Changqi, and there was such a dispute.
The two were still arguing when they suddenly heard two sharp sounds piercing the air.
Before the two of them could react, they heard a loud boom and the entire island began to shake. It turned out that the island protection formation was being attacked.
"Destruction Crossbow!"
As a Jindan master, how could he not recognize this sound? Tie Changqi and Tie Jinyu shouted in unison and flew out in a hurry.
On the sea outside, two sea ships were rushing towards them menacingly. Judging from the brilliance flashing above, they were already preparing for the second destruction crossbow.
The two evil spirits of Yuehe River are too cruel and have few friends. They have never been able to get any high-level formations. The protective formations on Yuehe Island are only second-level high-grade.
If it wasn't too far away, it wouldn't be able to block a blow from the Destruction Crossbow, but if it was hit again, it would definitely be broken.
"I'll stop them, and you can fight back in a sea ship!"
After shouting at Tie Jinyu, Tie Changqi flew up and rushed towards the ship outside.
The Destruction Crossbow was very powerful, but it was too cumbersome to operate, and it took less than half an hour to deliver the second blow.
Therefore, even though he knew that the opponent was strong, he had to take risks.
Just as the light emerged, Tie Changqi suddenly disappeared out of thin air, and used the Tie family's unique invisibility technique.
Xu Wen, who was standing at the bow of the ship, smiled coldly and directly activated the Heavenly Eyes Treasure Light Technique. Countless golden threads stretched across the sky and the earth, and Tie Changqi's figure was immediately spotted.
With a wave of his hand, large swaths of water mist appeared out of thin air and surrounded the two ships.
Tie Changqi, who was in mid-air, smiled coldly, thinking that the other party was trying to resist his own invisibility. Not only did his figure not decrease, but he also became faster.
The moment he flew over the ship, a chill suddenly appeared out of thin air, and he quickly dodged to one side without thinking.
An invisible force surged out from the void, swept over his right shoulder, and an arm suddenly left his body.
Xu Wen, who was wielding the Green Scale Sword, was suddenly startled. This guy was also at the middle stage of Jindan cultivation, just like his robber father.
But his fighting consciousness is stronger than his father. With the same full-strength blow from the Green Scale Sword, Tie Maitreya was directly beheaded, but he was able to avoid the fatal part.
"No……"
Tie Changqi roared, and his arm that came out of his body exploded suddenly and turned into a thick blood mist, protecting him in it.
Although the Green Scale Sword was invisible, it inevitably left a clear mark when it passed through the thick blood mist filled with mana.
With a sharp shout, Tie Changqi's eyes suddenly turned red, and two rays of rainbow light shot out, hitting the green scale sword hard.
The next moment, ignoring the protection of the sword body, a strange force surged directly into the inside of the Green Scale Sword, heading straight for Yuan Ling, trying to erase the imprint of mana left by Xu Wen in it.
If it succeeds, the Qinglin Sword will lose contact with Xu Wen and may be snatched away directly.
Fortunately, the Blue Scale Sword Yuanling was already very powerful and was only one step away from manifesting. Although it was shaken by the impact, it finally managed to hold on.
But the Yuanling was hit, and it temporarily lost the ability to attack, and suddenly appeared in its true form from the air.
