Xue Tong finished tinkering with the insect poison and ended the retreat after more than a month.
Not long after, the prince sent someone to invite him.
"I haven't seen Xue Dutong for more than a year. His cultivation has improved greatly." Fei Hanhai changed slightly and said.
Xue Tong refined the Twenty-One Nightmare Bone Jue, and the light in his eyes and the aura emanating from him immediately made Prince Chong feel that his power was several times stronger than before.
"Your Majesty, thank you for the award," Xue Tongqian said.
"How can this king be wrong? It's better not to underestimate it."
Prince Chong stopped talking and said instead: "Something happened during your retreat, and the palace needs to contribute to the dynasty."
"Please make it clear, Your Majesty," Xue Tong said.
"The ghost dojo is causing trouble in the southeast of Aowu Kingdom, and it is getting worse; the orcs are encroaching on the royal hunting grounds step by step. Both of these things are causing headaches. Perhaps it is the time for Xue Dutong to show his talents."
"I am going to submit a memorial. Prince Chong's palace is willing to share the worries and solve the problems for the dynasty." Prince Chong said solemnly.
He naturally knew about Xue Tong's promise to the princess. The moment Fei Ran received the letter, he seemed to be a new person. He was no longer sad and decadent. From then on, he settled down and practiced vigorously.
"Your Majesty, I will try to solve both problems."
"If you choose one of the two, it will be a great achievement." Fei Hanhai said.
Xue Tong thought, "I have a deep hatred with the Xuangu Divine Sect, but the barbarians still have some connections."
Then he immediately said: "I have a dispute with the ghost dojo and can't coordinate. Xue Tong is willing to give it a try with the barbarians."
"Okay, the terms of the negotiation will be reworked by the dynasty. How many followers will you need to bring with you?" Fei Hanhai asked.
"I'm alone here. If we can talk, we can talk. If we can't talk, we can leave. We can come and go freely. It's inconvenient to bring an entourage." Xue Tong said.
Xue Tong's practice of explosive blood pills has come to an end. It is expected that in a few more sessions, after the tenth level, he will have to use higher-grade animal blood and older elixirs to make blood pills. Now is a relatively free time.
If he still lives in the palace after leaving the customs, whether it is Fei Ran or the prince and princess, the relationship between all parties will be awkward and difficult. Prince Chong should also have this consideration in arranging his outing.
Fei Hanhai thought for a moment and then asked, "What do you want from the wolf clan?"
"Think about it..."
Xue Tong proposed a medicine cauldron and a simple translation into Barbarian.
His middle-grade Yuncui Xuanhui Cauldron can barely refine fifth-grade elixirs, and it has actually reached the point where it needs to be replaced.
The prince agreed wholeheartedly, and half a month later he sent a high-grade "Xiaguang Fire Phoenix Cauldron", which could refine up to sixth-grade elixirs.
The person who presented the cauldron was Shan Chunhua, the princess's bodyguard, an acquaintance of Xue Tong.
"The medicine cauldron is hard to find. The princess has spent a lot of effort. The prince and princess are very satisfied with the letter you gave to Princess Ran. I originally planned to give you a good thing." Shan Chunhua said.
"Yeah, Xue Tong understands, thank you Shan Guard."
"You're welcome, remember to come back to Aowu often." Shan Chunhua reminded him as he knew that Xue Tongyun traveled all over the world.
…
Xue Tong called over the Pei family brothers and sisters, Wen Guangmao and Xiao Shaner.
"I'm going out to do some business, and you'll have a good time practicing. The palace will be safe and clean, and this is a rare opportunity."
"When will eldest brother come back?" Xiao Yu'er asked.
"We'll go back when the Wolf Department's business is over. Just wait and see. Don't look around like you did in the past."
"If necessary, I will contact you via the Green Eyed Sea Falcon," Xue Tong said.
…
Prince Chong received the imperial decree.
The Aowu Kingdom asked the Wolf tribe not to cross the border for nomadic herding. In exchange, they would help build two mountain strongholds five hundred miles south of the border to accommodate the weak clans of the Wolf tribe.
"Due to the loss of their territory, the weak tribe of the Wolf Tribe repeatedly crossed the border. The Aowu Kingdom expelled them several times and even captured some barbarians. The warriors of the Wolf Tribe came later, and there were three major conflicts, which reached the level of the Xiantian General. "
"The Wolf Tribe drives away our own clan internally and unreasonably defends externally. What kind of martial-level people do we have to deal with and what kind of people do they deal with? It's not a big or small thing, but it's endless." Fei Hanhai said.
"Why didn't the dynasty send a big shot like the prince to appear?" Xue Tong wondered.
"Most of the high-ranking people are relatives of the emperor. It is too dangerous to interact with barbarians. People from the wolf tribe come and go without a trace. We are even worried about setting traps to lure us."
"I understand, have you mentioned this condition before?"
"As I mentioned, the Wolf Department is non-committal, so you may need to take the risk of going deeper and meet directly with the senior leaders of the Wolf Department instead of having someone convey it to you." Prince Chong twirled his beard and said.
"Xue Tong must work hard"
"You act carefully, don't force yourself, and be careful not to fall into a trap." Fei Hanhai said.
…
Xue Tong learned the Man language for half a month, asked the gentleman invited by Prince Chong to translate more than a hundred sentences, and then said goodbye.
He went to Jinluan Trading Company.
"I'll get the elixir I ordered."
Xue Tongtong's jade token was Yang Shijie's jade token, which he got after doing business in a merchant house for the first time. Thirty-five years ago, he ordered the natural elixir at the Jinluan branch in Aowu Imperial City.
The steward took the inquiry from the jade sign and said, "The things are ready, please wait a moment."
There are still two items left in Xue Tong's bag. Five natural elixirs are rare items that may come in handy.
"What else do you need, sir?" the merchant manager asked after handing over the elixir.
"Ten Kung Fu and martial arts, nine kinds of innate beast blood, I want to exchange for some spiritual stones." Xue Tong took out the jade slip porcelain bottle.
The steward looked through the jade slips for a moment and said: "The merchant store is careful to collect martial arts and martial arts, because there is a lot of inventory of various types, and we will not buy the non-distinctive ones. I took a quick look at the guest's items below. They seem to be of high quality, but the shopkeeper needs to make a decision. .”
The steward put down the jade slip and turned out the door.
Shao Qing, the boss of the Imperial City Trading Company and the shopkeeper of Hou Tian Ding Ding came in, checked the jade slips one by one, and finally decided to buy five of them.
"Five packages, Jin Luan offers 1.6 million."
"The guest officer's large bottle of animal blood has been collected, which is 250,000 yuan."
The five martial arts skills all come from Wanyu, including three from the Chang family, one each from Liang Jiong, and Huyan Yongkang.
"It depends on the shopkeeper, whether Jin Luan has the items on this list?"
Xue Tong sold the blood of beasts in the martial arts in exchange for several formulas of Hao Ling Dan and Jade Ling Dan, an innate beast corpse carved in a cup, and more than a dozen snake and insect inner elixirs.
Haoling and Yuling pills are commonly used pills for refining qi by innate warriors. Xue Tong obtained many boxes from Liang Jiong and others' storage bags, but it is still necessary to learn how to refine them as soon as possible.
…
Xue Tong left the imperial city and headed south, speeding through the mountains and fields. Later, he rode on a hawk and flew to the border.
On the border between Aowu and the barbarians, there were endless grasslands and mountains. Xue Tong inspected them from high altitude and hunted several batches of wild animals.
He patrolled back and forth and found an orc village.
Xue Tong swaggered and approached the entrance of the village, only to be stopped by two young barbarians.
Xue Tongjiligulu said a blunt barbarian language, which meant that he came from the country of Aowu and met the village chief.
The village is simple and simple, and the barbarian men and women wear dirty and torn animal skins with haggard faces, giving people a sense of hard life.
The village chief and two elders received Xue Tong and handed him a bowl of tea.
"Taoist...use tea." The village chief understands a little bit of the human language.
The two people spoke mixed barbarian and human languages, and Xue Tong announced that he wanted to meet the larger barbarian leader and asked the village chief to contact him.
The village chief showed his embarrassment and turned around to chat with his clan members, replying to Xue Tong that he could do nothing and the higher-ups would cause trouble.
"You just said that human warriors are coming to the village to kill people!"
Xue Tong stepped out of the house and made sure that there was no one in the empty house ten feet away. A thunder bead exploded it, leaving burning wood chips everywhere.
He then took out several tiger, leopard and elk carcasses from the storage bag and said, "These are for the village. Go and report!"
…
A beacon fire was lit on the stone platform on the hillside.
Next, a warrior-level orc came. Xue Tong made him suffer a little, mounted a hawk, and asked him to lead the way.
"From the Jiujiujiu tribe," the village chief sent a message and asked.
Xue Tong shook his head and ordered the orc warriors to lead the way to see the boss.
The orcs rode on camels, and the vultures followed them in stride, not slowing down at all.
After doing this several times, Xue Tong had traveled more than a thousand miles into the barbaric land and met Dou Tanerjin, the boss of the Dou Tan family of the Wolf tribe.
In the Qicha Valley, the Dou Tan family's stronghold has gathered nearly a thousand orcs from the Wolf tribe.
Dou Tan'er is refining his body with gold, but his cultivation level is unknown. Dou Tanjie, a clan wizard, is in the middle of the day after tomorrow.
"The Dou Tan family can't promise you anything at all. The decision-making power does not belong to our family." Dou Tanjie said after hearing his intention.
"I have come here one level at a time to let you know from the bottom up that far away from the border of Aowu Kingdom, the human race can help build a mountain stronghold in a suitable area." Xue Tong said.
"This matter needs to be reported to the higher authorities. Our clan cannot make the decision."
"There are several tribes in the Barbarian Wolf tribe. Xue has dealt with the Jiu tribe. According to Xue's analysis, the Doutan tribe should be a weaker tribe than the Wolf tribe."
Dou Tanerjin understood the human language and immediately became angry and cursed a few times, meaning that the human race was meddling in other people's business and wanted Xue Tong to go away and find someone else.
Xue Tong roughly understood, "It's okay if you want me to leave. I'll go back to the place where I've been and drive away all those barbarians!"
"How dare you! Just try it, the Wolf Club will kill you right away!" Dou Tanerjin said fiercely.
He was seven feet tall, with bulging veins on his arms, and distinct lines of bronzed muscles. He was breathing heavily, revealing an inch-long fang at the corner of his mouth.
Xue Tong was amused in his heart. Orc warriors were respected for their strength and more or less looked down on those who practiced law.
"Clan Chief Dou Tan seems very unconvinced. Let me tell you, your strength is half as strong as mine. Xue Tongzhuan will leave immediately!"
"What are you talking about? Hahaha..." Dou Taner's voice shook the roof and he laughed wildly.
"Taoist Master Xue, the master of the house is talking about the power of barbarians, not mixed with magic power." Dou Tanjie practiced the method and knew that he was innately powerful, but I guess Xue Tonghui had misunderstood and praised Haikou nonsense.
"I know that you can tell the difference between mana and brute force. It's hard for your family master to tell. I have a way to make him believe it. Let's find a place to compete."
"Ready-made place!" Dou Tanerjin took three steps at a time and led Xue Tong to the family martial arts training ground on the hillside.
He made people blow the horns of barbarians, horns of jousts.
In the blink of an eye, the eyes of hundreds of orcs gathered on the two men in the martial arts field.
The largest stone ball in the field weighed five thousand kilograms. Dou Tanerjin stretched out his arms to hug it, shouted loudly, and lifted it over his head.
The stone ball is so big and slippery that it is impossible to lift it without the strength of seven or eight thousand kilograms.
Thunderous cheers erupted from the village.
Xue Tong smiled slightly, moved his palm, and the stone ball flew up the steep slope of a hundred feet, and rolled down with a rumble.
The Doutan clan members beside him all changed their expressions and dispersed with a huff.
Xue Tong took a stance and punched with all his strength.
The strong wind suddenly rises, and the fist strikes fiercely.
"Bang!"
The stone ball exploded into countless fragments.
"How about it, is this enough?" Xue Tong turned his wrist and said with a smile.
His punch did not contain the martial arts skills of Ghost Evil Fist, and it lost all the bells and whistles of the human race in the eyes of the orcs.
