Dunhuang, in a single room of a restaurant.
Ma Guangliang, the second hero with a shiny head, said worriedly; "Brother, there is still no news from the 'Blood Shadow'..."
"Sunshine Divine Sword" Ma Guangming, who was drinking the warm stove wine, put down the wine glass he had picked up when he heard this, frowned and said:
"No news yet? Even if Mingxue is unwilling to help us, it's time for 'Blood Shadow' to come back and recover."
Having said this, he tapped the plate with side dishes with his chopsticks, thought for a while, and then asked, "When was the last time 'Blood Shadow' sent a message back?"
"He sent a telegram from Yumen more than a week ago...but since the telegram itself is not safe and can easily be leaked, he just simply reported that it was safe." Ma Guangliang replied.
"More than a week ago...it seems something happened!" Ma Guangming's expression became serious and he continued to ask, "Has anything major happened near Dunhuang recently?"
"How can there be any major events in a small place like Dunhuang?" Ma Guangliang sighed helplessly, but still listed a few events that had some impact.
"First, Qiao Zhou, the 'Purple Bearded King Kong' from the Yiren Camp, was reported for abandoning his soldiers and escaping when he encountered Song Wurui and Li Fuchen's magical battle last time.
"Although this is excusable, he is obviously no longer suitable to lead the foreign camp, so he was transferred to the county and replaced by a new captain.
"This new captain comes from a magical family in Shaanzhou. He has the sixth level of magical power at a young age...
"In addition, his family is likely to have a feud with the 'Iron Sword General', so he agreed on a date for a fight with him as soon as he arrived. It seems that he wanted to use this to gain authority in the army."
"Although 'Iron Sword General' Lu Qi's end is approaching, he is by no means a soft persimmon. This new captain may have made the wrong calculation!" Ma Guangming sneered and shook his head, "What else?"
Ma Guangliang continued: "Second, the Xie family was discovered to be the stronghold of the 'Four Evils Hall' by an 'evil-killing envoy' named Zhao Chen, and was therefore completely wiped out."
"The Xie family is the stronghold of the 'Four Evils Hall'? I really didn't see it before... But it's a good thing that such evil subordinates are exterminated!" As he said that, Ma Daxia, with his hair disheveled and a bit bohemian, seemed to have thought of something. , asked, "Zhao Chen... I remember that Sixth Brother mentioned this person in his previous letter...
"He seems to have a close relationship with Yan Hongxia. He defeated She Tianlei from the Green Snake Martial Arts School while still in the Qi realm?"
"Exactly... and according to the latest news, Mr. Zhao Xiaolang defeated a group of more than ten horse thieves on the street of Black Wind Castle. Even the 'earth-burrowing sandworm' Liu Hong could not escape and died on his In his hand." Ma Guangdian nodded, "Because the sword in his hand is red, some people have already given him the nicknames 'Jade Faced Shura' and 'Blood Sword Man'."
"I think Third Brother is very interested in this news." Ma Daxia said with a smile.
"Third brother Yan should already know..." Ma Guangliang also laughed and continued, "Speaking of third brother, he left the city early this morning because the people from the Beiqi Mountain Chain Village were active near Dunhuang and were looking for someone unknown. What.
"That's the third thing I want to say."
"Seriously?" Ma Guangming's expression suddenly became solemn, and he said thoughtfully, "Do you think the 'Blood Shadow' fell into the hands of the 'Four Evil Swords', and they obtained the secret oasis as a result?" Are you searching for information near Dunhuang?"
"It's very possible..." Ma Guangliang nodded in agreement, "People from the Northern Qishan Chain Village have rarely been to Dunhuang in the past seven or eight years. It's definitely not a coincidence that they frequently move around here."
Hero Ma Guangming stood up after hearing this and walked back and forth in the private room a few times, as if he was weighing something. After about a quarter of an hour, he stopped and said in a decisive tone:
"We can't wait any longer, otherwise I'm afraid the people from the Beiqi Mountain Chain Village will get there first..."
"You make arrangements. When the third brother comes back, we will call the third brother, the fourth brother, and the fifth sister over for a meeting."
…
By the canal flowing near the Flame Mountain, Zhao Chen looked at the middle-aged man getting closer and closer, and felt pressure in his heart unknowingly.
It felt like facing an oncoming "tank", with overwhelming momentum.
Fortunately, Zhao Chen was also a master at brewing momentum, and he knew that this was caused by the impact the other party had on his soul through his reputation and the action of easily killing the strong man just now.
So he just tweaked it a little bit and it weakened that effect.
After all, the other party is not deliberately targeting him.
Speaking of which, Zhao Chen had heard about Yan San's reputation as the "Desert Eagle" on the first day he traveled to this world.
Although the opponent only cultivated the Nine Apertures, his combat power was not inferior to that of ordinary magic monks. Yan Hongxia even admitted that she could not defeat her before she developed the "Red Emperor Nourishing Sword Qi" into her own life spell. This uncle.
Zhao Chen was still skeptical at first, but when he saw it today, the "Condor Gun Fighting Technique" was indeed well-deserved!
The reason why he could recognize the other person at a glance was because he saw the previous portrait of Yan Sanxia in Yan Hongxia's place;
Secondly, the other party's unique attire is so recognizable that it is difficult to recognize him!
Although there were many people who imitated the dress of Yan Sanxia in the past, due to the very different temperament, they looked nondescript, and Yan Sanxia had many enemies, so it was easy to be accidentally injured or to vent their anger. Nowadays, almost no one does such a thing. .
At this time, seeing the Three Heroes of Yan approaching on horseback, Zhao Chen thought for a moment and took the initiative to salute: "Junior Zhao Chen, I have met the Three Heroes of Yan."
From Sister Hongxia's point of view, she should indeed call herself a junior.
Yan San obviously came here for the people from Beiqi Mountain Chain Village. He didn't want to have more contact with the young man in front of him, but after hearing him announcing his home, he suddenly turned his head, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, and stared at Zhao Chen's face.
The next moment, his whole body suddenly rose into the air, and then he pinched his right wrist with his left hand, as if holding a snake, and then shot out his right palm, affecting his whole body, forming a mysterious flying snake with his right arm, left hand, and spine. trajectory.
With this palm wave, the nearly five feet distance between him and Zhao Chen disappeared. The wind from the palm hit his face with unparalleled force. The strength, true energy, and air mass formed a snake-shaped storm, which made Zhao Chen almost unsteady. .
The power of this move far exceeds the normal nine orifices, and it actually brings out some of the power of the heaven and earth's vitality, which is almost comparable to the inferior "natal spell"!
Faced with this sudden palm, Zhao Chen seemed to have noticed it. The moment before the opponent flew to attack, he had already deployed the "Sunset Sword" and activated the "Red Emperor Yangyuan" transformation of the five immortals. Angry, he unleashed the unique move in "The Sword of the First Sun" - "The setting sun is like blood".
The complete version of this move requires blood essence to activate the evil spirit contained in the "Sunset Sword", but Zhao Chen has long seen that Yan Sanxia has no murderous intention, so there is no need to go to extremes, just use "Red" The characteristic of "Emperor Yang Yuan Qi" forced him to use the "simple version" of this move.
boom!
As the vitality brought by the two moves collided, an explosion-like sound spread, and a strong wind blew in all directions, blowing sand and rocks within dozens of feet, like fog and haze, as if it had been bombarded.
Zhao Chen took more than ten steps back before he could stabilize his body. He felt a little tight in his chest. Fortunately, he was not injured, but the churning energy and blood could not be calmed down for a while.
At this time, Yan Sanxia did not continue to attack. He stood up with his palms closed, a smile of appreciation on his serious face, and said:
"You are very good!"
