It was only at dawn that he found out that Xiao Niangpi was also in the period of refining his energy, but the explanation given by the head of the medicine shop made him retreat even more. He forced a smile on his face and said, "Sir, when is the time to retaliate? The grudges of the previous generation should not be dragged into the next generation."
What he said in his heart was that you should go to the little mother-in-law to settle the debt. You don't dare to go to the big one, you only dare to attack the little one, and you even kill someone with a borrowed knife, not a husband.
The head of the medicine shop snorted: "I'm currently stuck in the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment. I haven't been able to form an elixir for a long time. It's because my heart is so knotted. The leader of the Baihua Sect is already in the middle stage of forming an elixir. I have a sect in my hand. What can I do to fight with her? ? She loves this only daughter very much. As long as she kills Lin Qing'er, she will have a weak state of mind and it will be difficult for her to advance. But I can understand my thoughts, have the opportunity to form pills, and catch up with her realm, so that I can take revenge. Boy , don’t think that I only think about myself. Do you know that if you don’t kill Lin Qing’er, she will kill you too!”
Li Xiao was startled again: "How do you say this? Don't scare me, sir."
The head of the medicine shop chuckled: "Lin Qing'er doesn't show pretense to other men, but you are an exception. Do you think anyone can go out with her to practice?"
The break of dawn is like waking up from a dream: "Death of love?"
Yao Xing nodded: "You can teach me. Of course, you are not qualified to let her kill her love now. Your cultivation is not good enough, and your status is far behind. But if you win the championship, it will be a different story."
It was a matter of life and death, so Li Xiao quickly got to the bottom of it and said, "Please make it clear!"
The head of the medicine shop pondered for a while: "That's all, the big thing I want you to do was originally something you were qualified to know after you became the King of Champions. But now that the situation has changed, I will tell you first. Now there are corpses, monsters and monsters all over the place. The demons are all ready to move, which shows that the Lord God is in trouble. To end all this, we must take down the Lord God, that is, the Jian. Therefore, our four sects will restart an ancient formation after the New Year Tournament and introduce the Jian into the trap. Every time in this formation It can only be opened once every thousand years. Those who enter can only be below the foundation level, otherwise they will explode and die. At the same time, they must possess the evil spirit. What is the evil spirit? At least ten thousand people can be killed. Therefore, among mortals, only the king can do it. During the Qi refining period Immortal cultivators can enter if they kill ten thousand demons. There are ancient inheritances in the formation, as well as many heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Of course, there are also corpse demons and beast demons that have survived for tens of thousands of years. However, only nine people can enter the formation at a time. The number of places is limited and extremely precious. In the past, every thousand years, it was a grand gathering in the world of immortality. Many Qi-refining talents broke their heads fighting for a place. The same is true this time. The only difference is that Jian will also join the battle. The danger has greatly increased. But you are an exception. Even if you don't gain anything after entering the battle, as long as you get close to Jian and practice the Heaven-Mending Technique next to him, it will be a great blessing. Of course, the premise is that you want to win the championship. If there are no accidents, Lin Qing'er will definitely join the battle, and she will go with the King of Challengers. One year in the battle, one month in the human world, is enough to create love. When she comes out of the battle, she will kill him, just enough to build the foundation..."
Cold sweat broke out on my forehead when I heard it in the morning, thinking that Xiao Niangpi had been tempting me intentionally or unintentionally, maybe it was just foreshadowing.
Unexpectedly, he was forced to fight and fell into a deeper trap. However, he also reunited with Wuxie and received a promise from the goddess. What trouble? What is blessing? Is it a coincidence? Or is it fate...
The secret revealed by Yao Xingshou should be close to ten, but he couldn't help but think back: "Then I won't join the battle even if I win the championship, and Lin Qing'er won't be able to kill Qing. Or I might just find an opportunity to run away. , I haven’t fought for years.”
"Boy, do you think it's still up to you to make the decision?" Yao Xing muttered, "Now as long as you take one step on this street, there will be hidden stakes to capture you and send you back to Lan Kwai Fong. What's more, Hu Buwei I also know that you are Lin Qing'er's first choice for love, and I wish I could kill you first. If no one protects you, you are the King of Champions, so why not kill you."
I blinked my eyes at dawn and thought to myself, I am covered by the innocent spirit in the sky, so what should I be afraid of? The inference just now was just to test the truth. This challenge king must be won, and this ancient formation must also be advanced. Only in this way can oneself continue to become stronger.
As for Xiao Niangpi, it is a rather troublesome problem. If there is a chance to kill her, Li Xiao will not have any psychological burden, especially since she still wants to kill him.
Breaking Dawn knows that if the leader of the medicine industry dares to make this suggestion, he must have thunderous means. He will ask clearly before saying: "Sir, you said that Lin Qing'er is already at the ninth level of Qi refining, and there are magic weapons and magic weapons nearby. I am just a beginner in Qi refining. How to kill her?"
For the first time, the medicine shop saw that he finally stopped pushing and tried to convince her: "I want to kill Lin Qing'er, but I also want to clear up your suspicions. Naturally, I have to be foolproof. My strategy is to put the blame on others and kill people with a borrowed knife."
"How do you say this?" Li Xiao's eyes lit up, as if he didn't need to do it himself.
The head of the medicine shop patiently explained: "You two are out for training this time, and you must be looking for a group of demons to kill. A few days ago, Lin Qing'er asked me to prepare a demon-inducing medicine. I have already prepared it. Now I will give you a few bottles of blood dispelling powder. , used to stop bleeding and remove odor. When you are inevitably injured, apply it on the wound. I have prepared this powder. Once its smell is combined with the poison-inducing medicine, it is enough to make the Qi refining period lose its magic power, which can last for half a day. You After pouring out the blood-removing powder, the gods won't be able to find out that it's related to you. Lin Qing'er has no magic power, can't cast spells, can't sacrifice magic weapons, and is no different from a mortal. You don't need to do anything then, corpse demon He Beast Demon can kill her. It would be better if other sects take action secretly, and her mother and the Sword Sect will not suspect you..."
Li Xiao heard that chills ran down his spine. The head of Yao Xing was much more sophisticated than Hu Buwei. He had already boarded the pirate ship, but he still didn't want to agree readily: "Sir, without Lin Qing'er's protection, you think I am facing the robbers alone. How long can I survive? Or how can I save my life when I encounter other sects that are following me? Moreover, the leader of the Baihua Sect or the head of the water will definitely use various means to torture the villain, how should I deal with it?"
The head of the medicine shop showed a smile in his eyes: "Boy, I really saw you right! Don't worry, I have thought everything through for you..."
After a cup of tea, the medicine shop leader took a sip of tea: "Boy, I have said everything that should be said, and I have also said what should not be said. We are already grasshoppers on a rope, both prosperous and destructive. Only with sincere cooperation can we break the situation."
At the end of the story, he acted like a villain and was obviously not a gentleman.
Li Xiao knew that he could no longer refuse, so he nodded: "I hope you won't break your promise."
Yao Xingshou left quietly, as if he had never been there.
At dawn, he picked up the page of paper, memorized half of "The Secret of Mending the Sky", and then swallowed the paper. The safest way to save it was to remember it in his mind.
The next morning, in the backyard of Lan Kwai Fong, Li Xiao and Lin Qing'er put on their hunting attire again and went over each other's names first.
"Brother, are you ready?"
"Sister, my little brother is ready."
Lin Qing'er smiled and said: "Brother, look at your knife, what's the difference."
"Huh? Did you change me?" As soon as I pulled out the knife at dawn, I felt something different. Although the appearance was the same, it was warm in my hand. Even the sharp blade was warm, making people want to be scratched by it. willingly.
Lin Qing'er was quite proud: "This knife is your original knife, but it was reforged with meteorite iron and kept in the best hot springs for half a year. The hidden edge is like spring water, and the blade is like the sun. It is heartbreaking. My sister gave me It was named Spring."
"Chun Yi, what a good name!" Li Xiao praised in his mouth, but secretly thought in his heart that the name matched the brothel. He thought of the well where he had been detained for nearly half a year, and thought of the Love-Severing Art, and he couldn't laugh anymore: Xiao Niang The better you treat yourself, the worse you will feel.
The sky at dawn was as gray as ever, and there were already a few people on the streets of the ghost market. They were all rushing to the morning market, with white mist in their mouths and hazy faces.
However, a man and woman came out against the current, both wearing gray cotton robes, covering their heads and covering their faces, and carrying daggers on their backs. It was Li Xiao and Lin Qing'er who were embarking on an expected ten-day journey of experience.
The two passed the Ximen Checkpoint. At dawn, they suddenly remembered their old friend Tie Zhu. Seeing no one around, they asked: "Sister, there is a boxer named Tie Zhu. He used to be a Paul Ding. He is good at leg and kick kung fu. He How's it going?"
Lin Qing'er naturally knew: "He won the winner of the Autumn Tournament. And the winner of the Winter Tournament, if nothing unexpected happens, should be Xiaopang."
"Ah?" Li Xiao's face suddenly changed. Tie Zhu gave up Xia Lei for himself, but why did he win Qiu Lei again? That's right, he must have thought that he was being detained and was not qualified to compete in the New Year Tournament. He didn't expect that the creature was tricking people, but he would encounter him in the New Year Tournament... He hurriedly covered it up, "Little Fatty almost died that day, how come he came back to life?" Already?"
Lin Qing'er glanced at her: "Aren't you the same?"
"Oh, oh..." Li Xiao was speechless for a moment, feeling flustered. First, he had to fight to the death with the girl he loved, and then he had to fight to the death with his only friend. How could he face such a cruel fate?
Lin Qing'er seemed to have guessed what Li Xiao was thinking, and said calmly: "Although Tiezhu is your friend, immortal cultivators compete with heaven for their lives, let alone humans?"
The words awakened the dreamer, and he thought to himself in the morning, this is not the voice of the little girl, she was moved only to kill her.
Thinking back to the instructions given by the head of the medicine shop last night, it can be described as sinister and sophisticated.
I originally thought that the human world was full of intrigues, fights and killings, but I never thought that the world of immortality would be the same. Could it be that if I wanted to become stronger, I would have to step on other people's corpses all the way there?
Li Xiao, who was once used to running away if he couldn't escape, had to face the bleak life and dripping blood. This is the price of growth.
The two of them left the ghost market, the man in front of them and the woman behind them, walking silently on a dirt road, just like last time.
The dust was flying nearby, and the wind and sand filled the air in the distance, and there was no trace of human beings.
It is the twelfth lunar month of winter and the weather is freezing. Both scavengers and hunters are "bathing through the winter" and will not go out to make a living again until after the Spring Festival.
Lin Qing'er didn't say anything and just walked along the dirt road at dawn.
The sky and the earth are desolate, and the cold wind is biting to the bones. Fortunately, the spring breeze in my hands is full of warmth, which makes the dawn feel quite comfortable.
When they reached a fork in the road, Lin Qing'er called out to Li Xiao, narrowed her eyes to the left and right, and quickly pointed in one direction: "Brother, go this way."
