Without Xiandu, Li Xiuping and others had to rely on themselves if they wanted to continue heading north.
But before that, we still need to find a place for Miss Xiaohong to control the Mysterious Fire Token.
After leaving Xiandu, Li Xiuping briefly greeted Xiaoyao Sect and then left directly.
The alienated people were all filled with bitterness at this moment. They could have reached the north directly and safely, but now it was better, because their little uncle had to suffer for a few more months in vain.
Without the Immortal Crossing, they would have to ride a sword or walk for thousands of miles to the north. Either way, they would suffer.
Everyone first walked a distance to the north, and then found a relatively secluded place. Li Xiuping took out the Xuanhuo Token and handed it to Miss Xiaohong.
With the appearance of the Mysterious Fire Order, the temperature between heaven and earth instantly increased, and the surrounding vegetation began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye.
After Miss Xiaohong received the Xuanhuo Order, the woman in green formed a seal with her hands, and a barrier spread directly to the surroundings. Then she asked Li Xiuping to lead everyone in the academy away from the barrier.
After Li Xiuping and others exited, they could no longer see the situation inside the barrier, so they could only wait outside. Although they could not see the situation inside, they could still feel some movements, such as sometimes heat rushing out. Barrier, causing impact to surrounding vegetation.
Huang Qing walked to Li Xiuping and asked in a low voice: "Uncle Junior, after they get the Xuanhuo Order, are they leaving?"
Li Xiuping was stunned and did not answer directly.
According to what was said before, the demon clan gave him the qualification to enter the Penglai Immortal Boat, and he helped the demon clan unlock the seal of the Xuanhuo Order. Now that the deal has been concluded, the woman in green and the little red girl should leave.
Li Xiuping suddenly discovered that he had never thought about this problem. He had even become accustomed to having these two strong men from the demon clan following him.
Along the way, there were many dangers, all because of the existence of these two strong men of the demon clan, so they were able to avert dangers. If they left, he would have to deal with any obstacles and dangers by himself.
How should you deal with a situation like the one before?
Li Xiuping soon felt that his idea seemed a bit redundant. Now he and the woman in Tsing Yi no longer had the original trading relationship, but were senior sister and junior brother. Moreover, Miss Xiaohong also said that she would get the first one from him. Fairy Sword, this means that they will not leave for the time being.
Before unlocking the seal of the Xuanhuo Order, his senior sister also said that the purpose of unlocking the Xuanhuo Order was to improve the strength of Miss Xiaohong as soon as possible so that she could better help Li Xiuping. It can be seen that they will definitely not be able to help Li Xiuping in a short time. Will leave, at least not before Li Xiuping attends the Seven Holy Lands Conference.
Li Xiuping shook his head and said, "Probably not for the time being."
After receiving Li Xiuping's answer, Huang Qing nodded and said nothing more.
As time went on, the barrier began to disappear. The woman in Tsing Yi and the little red girl walked over at the same time. Li Xiuping could clearly feel that the aura of the little red girl had obviously changed a lot, and she also changed from the little girl's appearance. She became a girl.
Not only Li Xiuping, but everyone in the academy was also a little surprised when they felt the change in Miss Xiaohong.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Miss Xiao Hong frowned and said, "Why, don't we recognize each other?"
Li Xiuping was the first to come to his senses and said with a smile: "This change is really big."
Miss Xiao Hong asked with a smile: "Just tell me whether it looks good or not?"
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "It looks good."
Miss Xiaohong smiled and said, "That'll be it from now on."
The woman in green said at this time: "Okay, let's hurry up and hurry up. There is still some distance to go. If we encounter any obstacles again, I'm afraid it will be difficult to arrive within the stipulated time."
After saying that, she formed a seal with her hands and said: "Hong Yatou and I will take turns leading you in the sky for the rest of the journey, so that we can leave the Xia Dynasty this morning."
As her seals changed, runes began to appear on the ground. These runes were connected to each other and formed a small formation, just enough for everyone to stand.
As the formation took shape, the woman in green said, "Come up, everyone."
Li Xiuping led everyone to stand up, and then the entire formation lifted everyone up and flew up into the air. The speed was no worse than Xiandu, or even faster.
As everyone ascended to the sea of clouds, they began to move north, and countless mountains and rivers continued to retreat.
Li Xiuping was okay, everyone in the academy was surprised. They didn't expect that a strong man in the transformation stage could lead so many people to fly in the air at the same time, and at such an astonishing speed.
Probably in order to maintain the best condition, the woman in green took everyone to fly like this for a while, and then the little red girl came. In just half a day, she had already traveled a thousand miles.
As dusk fell, everyone found a place to rest before continuing on their way the next day.
As the jet-black dragon recovered, Li Xiuping was used as a coolie to replace the woman in green and the little red girl. In this way, a lot of time was saved.
Just walking and stopping like this, the journey was considered stable, and there were no obstacles. Not only did no Taoist strongmen come forward to stop them, but even the strong men from the Xia Dynasty did not show up.
But the calmer he became, the less at ease Li Xiuping felt.
In the past, the Taoist family planned to prevent him from going north at any cost, even at the expense of offending the Xiaoyao Sect. Now, as long as he blocks it a little more, it is very likely that he will not be able to reach the Piaoxue country as scheduled. The Taoist family should not let go of such an opportunity. right.
On this day, everyone was approaching the capital of the Xia Dynasty, and the woman in green suddenly received a jade slip, as if there was some important information conveyed from the demon clan.
After receiving the jade slip, the woman in green first obtained the contents, and then said: "We are afraid that we will not be able to accompany you on the next journey."
When these words came out, not only Li Xiuping was stunned, but Miss Xiaohong also frowned.
The woman in green continued: "The Demon Clan has just sent a message, saying that some changes have occurred in the Demon Clan, and its impact is not even inferior to that of three hundred years ago. Moreover, there are also some situations in the newly integrated Penglai Continent in the east, which seems to be related to the Demon Clan. Now, both humans and monsters are putting all their focus on this matter, so the Taoists probably won’t take action against you for the time being, at least not those who are at the God Transformation stage or above.”
Li Xiuping frowned deeper and asked, "Are you leaving now?"
The woman in green nodded and reminded: "By the way, when you go north this time, it's best not to stay in the Xia Dynasty for too long, and try to enter Piaoxue City as soon as possible."
Li Xiuping had complicated thoughts, but he could only nod in agreement.
The woman in green continued: "Although Taoists will most likely not take action against you, you should not let down your guard. If that doesn't work, you can go to the Seven Holy Lands. Since you represent Guanchao Academy, they can't ignore you even on the surface. .”
Li Xiuping nodded again.
The woman in green hesitated again, but finally turned and left without speaking.
Miss Xiaohong was obviously a little reluctant to give up. She looked at Li Xiuping and said, "Don't die. The sword you promised me hasn't been cast yet."
Li Xiuping smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm lucky."
Miss Xiaohong glanced at everyone in the academy again, and finally focused on Li Xiuping.
Li Xiuping smiled and said: "It's okay, go quickly, I won't be able to catch up with senior sister for a while."
Miss Xiao Hong nodded, then turned around, hesitated for a moment, turned around again, and stuffed something into Li Xiuping without saying what it was. The whole thing turned into a stream of light and disappeared.
After the two left, Li Xiuping's smile gradually disappeared, and his face was heavier than ever.
He never expected that they would be separated so soon, and in such a way.
Li Xiuping was completely unprepared now. He originally thought that he could rely on two powerful men in the God Transformation Stage, but he didn't expect that they had already separated in advance before they even reached the capital of the Xia Dynasty.
After a long time, Li Xiuping exhaled a long breath.
In any case, the matter has come to this, and he can only rely on himself for the rest of the journey. In addition to ensuring his own safety, he also has to ensure the safety of the academy disciples around him. This is not an easy task.
Huang Qing said at this time: "Uncle Junior..."
Li Xiuping put aside all his thoughts, looked at everyone in the academy, and said with a smile: "It's okay."
He then asked: "How long will it take to get to Snow Country from here?"
Huang Qing took out a jade slip he brought from the academy and said, "If we follow the previous speed, it will take about two months."
Li Xiuping nodded and fell into thought.
After a while, Li Xiuping said: "For the sake of safety, we should keep a low profile for the rest of our trip. It is best not to conflict with others and leave the Xia Dynasty first."
After saying that, his body fell directly towards the ground, apparently choosing to walk.
Everyone also fell down.
Huang Qing walked beside Li Xiuping and said, "Uncle Junior, actually we can also ask the Confucian Academy for help."
Li Xiuping was stunned.
Huang Qing continued: "Taoism has inheritance, and we also have Confucianism, and the schools are no less than Taoism. Although the purposes are different, as a junior uncle, if you ask those academies to help, they should not refuse."
Li Xiuping nodded and said, "Let's take a look first."
Huang Qing nodded. She was just giving her opinion. It was up to the junior uncle to make his own decision.
Li Xiuping asked: "Is the capital of the Xia Dynasty ahead?"
Huang Qing nodded and said: "In about two days, we should be able to arrive."
Li Xiuping glanced at the sky and said, "Let's find a place to rest first."
After that, he moved on without saying anything more.
Everyone could feel it. After the two strong men from the Monster Clan left, it seemed that all the burdens fell on the shoulders of this young uncle. They also wanted to help him share the burden, but they couldn't. Be qualified to take responsibility.
Li Xiuping did have a lot to think about at the moment. He felt that he was suddenly back to the beginning. When leaving Qingyang County, he had to think clearly about all the things that might happen and calculate all the possible situations. arrive.
The first thing to consider is the Taoist side.
According to the speculation of his senior sister, due to the so-called sudden change, there should be no strong people in the Taoist transformation stage coming to deal with him, but it is just that there should be, not necessarily there will not be, so he still has to be prepared to encounter the transformation. The plan of the powerful man in the divine stage.
Secondly, there are no strong people in the Soul Transformation stage, but there will definitely be strong people in the Nascent Soul stage. Although I have no problem dealing with strong people in the Nascent Soul stage, these disciples in the academy are different, and now I not only have to ensure my own safety, but also ensure that Their safety, so the strong men in the Nascent Soul stage who were originally no threat have become a huge threat.
In addition to the Taoists, there are some other forces. It's hard to say whether the Taoists themselves will take action, but they will definitely let other forces take action. In order for other forces to take action, they only need to let out the news that he has a huge treasure.
The temptation of immortal treasures to monks is too great, not to mention that in addition to countless immortal treasures, he also has a sacred tree, which is coveted by countless people.
Whether it is Guanchao Academy or the Master Jiu Xian, there must be some shock, but people who practice are inherently blessed with misfortune. Sometimes in order to reach a higher level, they have to work hard, and there will be some unnecessary things. Life also has to fight for the existence of opportunities.
Then there is the Xia Dynasty royal family that was offended before.
Originally, Li Xiuping didn't care about this matter at all, because with his senior sister and Miss Xiaohong, two powerful people in the God Transformation stage, even if the entire Xia Dynasty was dispatched, it would not be able to pose any threat to them, or even the entire Xia Dynasty. The Xia Dynasty royal family could only watch them enter the capital and then leave without even daring to show their faces. After all, judging from the previous situation in the Imperial City, no matter how powerful the secular dynasty was, they could only produce one or two powerful people in the God Transformation stage, and no more.
Now that his senior sister and Miss Xiaohong have left, the Xia Dynasty royal family may not necessarily swallow their anger and say that they have to wait until they approach the capital before the Xia Dynasty takes action.
If it were just the army or some strong people at the Golden Core stage, they could handle it, but if they sent out strong people at the Nascent Soul stage, it would become difficult for him to take care of the disciples in the academy.
Now we are only two days away from the Xia Dynasty's capital, so the first thing Li Xiuping needs to consider now is how to avoid conflict with the Xia Dynasty.
Regardless of whether the Xia Dynasty royal family can pose a threat to them, it is best to avoid conflicts. Otherwise, once a conflict occurs, various unexpected changes will occur, and many beings who were originally scrupulous will take the opportunity to take action. Afterwards, they can still Put the responsibility entirely on the Xia Dynasty royal family.
It is obviously impossible to bypass the capital of the Xia Dynasty. After all, their main purpose now is to go north and enter the Snow Country. If they change their route now, it will take more time. Arrive at Snow Country before the conference starts.
After much thought, Li Xiuping couldn't come up with any good countermeasures. After all, the incident hadn't happened yet, and he didn't know what the situation would be like. He could only speculate on several possibilities based on his own ideas. What happened and the corresponding response plan.
Before dark, everyone found a rest station, but there was no way to hide their identities as Confucian disciples.
After settling everyone down, Li Xiuping left the inn alone, intending to inquire about some things about the Xia Dynasty. Only by knowing some of the situation here could he better deal with what might happen. For example, what are the forces at the foot of the mountain in the Xia Dynasty, the situation between these forces, what sects are on the mountain, what are the situations between these sects, etc.
Just like Huang Qing said, they can now seek help from the Confucian Academy, and at least they have to know where to find the Confucian Academy if something goes wrong. The woman in green also said that they also wanted to seek help from the Seven Holy Lands, so they must at least know how to find the Seven Holy Lands...
It's a pity that although this place is not far from the capital of the Xia Dynasty, due to its remote location and the fact that there are few outsiders, basically nothing useful can be learned.
Afterwards, Li Xiuping returned to the inn. He first felt the current situation in his spiritual sea, then closed his eyes, recalling the sword strike of Master Jiu Xian and Master Qing Ming, and contacted his subsequent sword strikes to see if he could Nothing can be gained.
He has now fully mastered all the fairy treasures. Although he has mastered the sixth fairy treasure, because the Xuanhuo Token has been taken away by Miss Xiaohong, not only has it not improved, but it has weakened.
Compared with the Xuanhuo Ling, the Taoist fairy treasure is slightly lacking. At least it cannot be attacked or defended like the Xuanhuo Ling, and it can also cooperate with the jet black dragon to fight the enemy.
Although the jet-black dragon only has the cultivation level of the Golden Core stage, if it cooperates with the Xuanhuo Order, it will have no problem against the powerful Nascent Soul stage. Now that the Xuanhuo Order is gone, it is equivalent to directly losing one Yuanying stage. helper.
The only way to improve now is to understand that sword. That sword can exert greater power, and he will have one more way to save his life.
After one night, Li Xiuping couldn't gain anything, so he had no choice but to give up.
Cultivation itself is not something that can be achieved overnight, let alone such an advanced understanding of the way of the sword.
Everyone had some breakfast at the inn, and then continued their journey north, heading towards the capital of the Xia Dynasty.
Along the way, whenever there was a chance, Li Xiuping would inquire about the situation here, and he gained a lot along the way. For example, in the capital of the Xia Dynasty, there was an academy, and it was placed in the entire Confucian school. The status seems to be low.
In addition, Li Xiuping also inquired about something. It seemed that something big had happened in the capital recently. It seemed to be related to a certain princess of the Xia Dynasty royal family, so the capital had recently gathered many people from all over the world.
This is an opportunity for Li Xiuping and others.
Because there are so many outsiders rushing to the capital, they are just one of them, and they will not receive much attention. Maybe they can get away with it, leave the capital without anyone noticing, and continue heading north.
In this way, everyone walked for two days and finally arrived at the capital of the Xia Dynasty. Compared with the Imperial City, this prosperous city was even worse.
What Li Xiuping didn't expect was that they were already recognized before they entered the capital city. They were just waiting outside the city, as if they were waiting for them to arrive.
