The northern part of the Daliang Empire belonged to the Chu State. Most of the territory was covered with high mountains and ridges. There was a large plain in the center, which naturally became the location of the capital.

There are some small plains scattered around the capital, which have become counties, and some small towns are scattered in the nearby hilly areas.

Further north from the Chu State is the Zhao State, which is weaker than the Chu State. Although the area is larger, the territory is relatively cold. There are several huge mountains near the Snow Wind Country in the north.

Those mountain ranges are covered with ice and snow all year round, and the giant peaks on the mountain ranges are even more freezing cold, with the snow never melting away.

Therefore, the territory of Zhao State is not suitable for civilians to live, and therefore it is not occupied by major powers.

Yanliang looked at the groups below that looked like villages, but fortunately there were many of them, they had built fortifications, and they were guarded by experts with good combat capabilities.

As we went further north, there were more and more such things, and eventually there would be one every dozens of miles. They didn't look like a tribe that had been living in isolation for a long time, but like they had come here. A village made up of ordinary people who hide away from the world.

Yue'er looked at the villages that appeared from time to time below, and said with some confusion: "Brother Yanliang, I think they have no experience in mountain life, and most of them don't have bloody murderous aura. They should be ordinary people."

Yanliang nodded, and swept through several villages within a hundred miles with his mind. "They should be families or people who came to escape from the world. Those who can come here should still have some power and ability. More and more people have appeared in this area." There seems to be unrest or war in neighboring countries."

Yue'er said with some melancholy: "This kind of law of the jungle can be seen everywhere. The weaker you are, the more you will be bullied. It only hurts the common people..."

There was a hint of worry in Yan Liang's eyes, "Yeah, I wonder what's going on in the Zhao Kingdom?"

When Wu Xinghuai heard this, he turned and looked to the southeast, with homesickness and worry in his eyes, "It's been so many years, I wonder how my family is doing?"

Zeng Youhui put his arm around his shoulders and said, "If you are worried about home, I will accompany you home first after exploring this secret place."

Yan Liang turned around and patted his arm, and said with a serious face: "Brother Xinghuai, you have only been in Lu for five years. I am afraid it has been more than ten years since I left your family this time."

Wu Xinghuai's eyes were full of memories. He turned around and looked at the two brothers and nodded, "I have been living in Xilingzhou for six years. It all seems like a dream. I used to complain about the unfair fate, but since I met Yan Liang Brother, I realized that you have to fight for your destiny by yourself."

Zeng Youhui looked a little angry, took out the Jiyin Flying Sword, pointed the sword into the sky and shouted: "Everyone says that the way of heaven is selfless, but I say that it is the most selfish. For the sake of its own stability, it will ignore the safety of the people in the world. The disaster it brought caused the death of tens of millions of people, just to make people respect it, but I... don't obey it."

Wu Xinghuai suddenly felt a fighting spirit in his body. He clenched his hands into fists and said with some emotion: "Well said, God has never shown mercy to the weak. Why can the strong trample on the dignity of others at will? If I obey fate, I will not I will almost die in... Zhongshengzhou, no matter how powerful they are a hundred times a thousand times, if they want me to surrender they can only step over my body, but as long as I don't die, I will one day take revenge."

Yanliang's mind flashed with the giant palm holding up the sky and the sword energy of a thousand feet. Thinking of Yue'er's hidden illness since birth, a surge of sadness and anger suddenly surged into his heart. "If there is power, then we will defeat it. If fate is unfair, we will still do it." To resist it, our destiny should be in our own hands and we should do what we want to do according to our own wishes."

Zeng Youhui, Wu Xinghuai, and Yan Liang looked at each other, and saw the burning fighting spirit in their eyes, "Okay, then let's defeat the power together and resist fate..."

Yue'er has always had a let nature take its course in the past, but now she was infected by their emotions, and a fighting spirit gradually arose in her heart, "Brother Yanliang, and I, no matter how long my body can last, I will do it." Fight with you."

Yanliang hugged Yue'er and looked at her affectionately, "Okay, there is my Yue'er, let's go together."

Having said this, he looked at Wu Xinghuai and continued: "Brother Xinghuai, I originally planned to inquire about Yue'er's hidden disease treatment method during the weapon refiner competition before making any plans, but now there is no accurate information at all. In a short time I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you back for a visit. If you are worried about your family, Brother Zeng will accompany you back for a visit first."

Wu Xinghuai looked at him closely and nodded. They all knew about Yue'er's hidden illness, and he was suffering from the fact that he couldn't do much to help, otherwise he would never show it even if he was homesick at the moment.

"Well, I feel a little homesick. I don't know if those people have come back to my parents to cause trouble..."

A strong murderous aura suddenly emerged from Yanliang's body, and he said in a cold voice: "It will not harm your family. If they dare to touch your family, I will pay with their blood!"

There was a flash of fluorescence in Wu Xinghuai's eyes, and these words made him feel very warm, "I will go back and have a look after helping you explore the secret place. If possible, I want to move them away. After all, I will be with them sooner or later." match……"

Zeng Youhui nodded, "Well, that's true. If they don't play according to the routine in the future, this will always be a hidden danger."

"If there is no suitable place to bring them here, I will arrange for them to enter the Sanhuang tribe. There is a wild forest between them, and even the Spirit King dare not go deep into it rashly."

While they were chatting, the few people quickly entered the border town of Chu State. The soldiers and horses from the two sides outside the city had already begun a fierce battle. The city was in a mess and looked very desolate. From time to time, there were people who were sneaking around. , there are even vicious people who betray their employers, commit adultery, and plunder.

In a dilapidated private house, a man in his thirties, who was a third-level spiritual master, was tearing open the bellyband of a twenty-five or six-year-old woman. His eyes were glowing with lust, and he stretched out his hands to rub them vigorously. Two soft things.

The woman beneath her was resisting fiercely and shouting for help, "My husband paid a high price to hire you as a guard. He just went to the battlefield to fight, and you, a beast, did this unscrupulous thing secretly. I...I Even if I die, I won't let you succeed. I will definitely turn into an evil ghost and haunt you after I die..."

There was a fierce look in the man's eyes, and he slapped her face, causing half of her face to become swollen, and her head was a little dizzy, "Do you think he didn't survive the battlefield? Darling. If you feel comfortable serving me, maybe I can protect the lives of you mother and son in this troubled world..."

With her hands weak, how could she fight against this villain? There were not many people in the chaos, and even if someone heard the cry for help, they would not dare to come over. In despair, she was about to bite her tongue and commit suicide, but when she heard the cry of the child outside the room, her heart instantly softened, and a bitter tear fell from the corner of her eye.

A young man fiercely broke into the main house of a house with a big knife, kicked away the housekeeper who came to stop him, and then hacked him to death with a knife. He shouted: "Hand over all the gold, silver and jewelry for me. Otherwise, today next year will be your death anniversary..."

A middle-aged man in his forties who looked quite shrewd in the house was guarding his wife and daughter behind him. He gritted his teeth and cursed: "You beast, I was so blind. If it hadn't been for me back then, You would have starved to death if I took you in, and I treat you well on weekdays. Now, before the enemy has breached the city gate, you dare to commit murder and robbery in broad daylight..."

The young man laughed and said: "Haha, thanks to you still being a businessman, most of the people in the city have fled long ago, but you are the only one who has been sticking here waiting for death. Now there are not many defenders left. You How long do you think they can hold on? I don’t want to wait to die with you, so hand over all the money quickly. I will spare your lives when you get the money..."

The middle-aged man was unwilling but powerless. If he didn't hand over his family's life, his family would be in danger. He sighed slightly and said, "Can you really spare my life?"

The young man clapped his chest and said, "I got the money and left for a long time. I have also lived in the days of rich people. It's too late for me to leave, so why would I spend time killing you..."

It's just that his eyes were obviously twinkling when he spoke, but in fact he had other plans in his heart.

The middle-aged man nodded with pain, "Okay, if that's the case, I'll give you all my money. I hope you will remember the old relationship and take the money and leave..."

After a while, the middle-aged man took out all the money hidden everywhere, and his wife and daughter then handed over all the jewelry.

The young man first put away the money handed over by the middle-aged man, and then grabbed the arm of the young woman who came forward to hand over the jewelry. His eyes were full of passion, "I have liked you for a long time, but you have never looked at me. , now that the war is in turmoil, just obey me, I may even be able to take you away together..."

After saying that, he hugged the woman tightly in his arms and began to move his hands up and down, and he was so excited that he cried out.

The woman twitched her arm hard at first, but failed to break free. At this moment, she began to struggle violently, but the power gap was huge and she could not break free from the clutches. She shouted for help: "Dad, Mom, please save me..."

"You beast, didn't you say you would leave as soon as you got the money?"

"I really can't bear to let such a beautiful lady be ruined by others here. Rather than being ruined by others, it's better to give it to me. If you don't obey, I will kill your whole family..."

"No, you beast, please let my daughter go..." the mother on the side cried.

The young woman's face turned blue and white, and tears couldn't stop falling from the corners of her eyes. She bit her lips, looked at her anxious parents, and yelled: "I'll go with you... but you have to let my family go... …”

An old man who looked like a housekeeper secretly moved a box of gold and silver jewelry out of the house, blocked the door of the house, and then piled the firewood that had been prepared at the door. He held a torch and was about to light it one by one, "You guys are going to die." Don't blame me for being cruel. People who don't work for themselves will be punished by heaven and earth. You will die sooner or later in troubled times. You might as well help me now. I will definitely burn more paper money for you every year in the future..."

This kind of situation is not rare in the city, and there are even more daring gangs who go from house to house and rob them, even taking away the little food they have left.

The golden boy let out a long roar and swooped down from high altitude. The soldiers and horses on the battlefield in the border city were stunned by the huge roar, and they all defended in confusion.

Yanliang's mental power locked tightly on those who raped and plundered, and roared angrily: "Kill those who raped and plundered!!!"

As the words fell, Shenhundang suddenly spread out in all directions.

In the dilapidated private house, the man of the third level of the Great Spiritual Master suddenly fell down silently. The woman beneath him was stunned for a moment, but the sound that followed surprised her.
