Everyone's eyes were attracted to this old man, including Chen Xiao.
When Chen Xiao looked at the old man, his eyes shrank.
"It's him!"
Chen Xiao said secretly in his heart.
A few months ago, when Chen Xiao entered the Sunset Mountains for training, he saw this old man fighting with another middle-aged man.
The battle was extremely fierce at that time. Later, when the Qingyuan Kingdom master left, the old man discovered Chen Xiao and almost killed Chen Xiao.
From the conversation between them, Chen Xiao also knew the old man's name.
Unexpectedly, he was the protector of Baiyun Kingdom, Wang Cang.
All officials, the Emperor, and major families stood up to greet him.
Wang Cang's body fell from the air and walked to the high platform.
"Students have seen the Protector."
The Human Emperor walked forward quickly and saluted the Protector.
"No need to be polite!"
Wang Cang walked towards the last position in a hurry.
Others didn't know it, but Chen Xiao knew very well that Wang Cang was poisoned, and it could be seen from his face.
His face was very pale, a bit abnormally white.
"Guardian, can the royal hunt begin?"
The Minister of Etiquette in charge of the royal hunt came out, bowed respectfully to the Protector, and then asked.
Wang Cang looked towards the left front of the high platform. There were nearly 1,500 people divided into many teams.
He glanced over one by one and nodded with satisfaction when he saw the rise of the younger generation in Baiyun Country.
These people are the hope for the future of Baiyun Country.
The moment his eyes fell on Chen Xiao's face, Wang Cang's eyes narrowed into a thin line.
Chen Xiao naturally looked at Wang Cang, and no one said anything. They looked at each other quietly for a while, and Wang Cang withdrew his gaze.
Chen Xiao was not killed that day because his cultivation level was too low.
What he didn't expect was that in just a few months, Chen Xiao would grow so fast.
"Who is he and what is his name?"
Wang Cang asked the Human Emperor.
Following Wang Cang's gaze, the Human Emperor also saw Chen Xiao.
"His name is Chen Xiao, and he is my new disciple."
The Human Emperor did not speak, but Princess Lingyang spoke first.
"I see!"
Wang Cang did not continue, signaling that the royal hunt had officially begun.
"Everyone enters the mountains in batches. You need to find clues about the specific location of the Flame Flag yourself."
Following the announcement by the Minister of Rites, many princes entered the mountains one after another.
In the blink of an eye, it disappeared without a trace.
The mountain range is huge, let alone more than 1,500 people entering it.
Even if 15,000 people enter, it will be like a ladle of water poured into the sea.
The mountain range is so big that it connects Baiyun Country and Qingyun Country. The highest peak in the middle is the border between the two countries.
Outside the court, Wang Cang took out a huge talisman from his storage bag.
Forming seals with both hands, the talisman flew into the air, forming ripples.
A wonderful scene appeared. The ripples were like water, slowly becoming still, and finally transformed into a mirror.
The mirror is very big, and there are many flowers, plants and trees in it, just like the scene in the mountains.
People outside the field can always follow the royal hunt through this mirror.
Even without going in, you can still see clearly.
The royal hunt lasted for five days in total. During these five days, most of the food and drinks were spent here.
After entering the mountains, Su Ruirui led the team. She was very familiar with jungle life.
Yi Kang is in charge of the rear, and the two of them have the highest cultivation level.
Ba Yuxuan and Chen Xiao were in the middle, and the four of them moved at a leisurely pace.
"We must get ahead of others as soon as possible and get the Flame Flag first."
Su Ruirui may be used to leading troops in battles, so she always spoke to the three of them in a commander's tone.
Of course, Yi Kang did not dare to refute. He was no match for Su Ruirui when it came to leading troops in war.
Chen Xiao was even more indifferent, he was here for the treasure.
As long as Su Ruirui's decision is right, he will not interfere in any way.
Traveling through dense woods, there are many swamps and poisonous gases.
Chen Xiao quietly sacrificed his soul power, and the Nine Heavens Divine Pillar reminded him that this mountain range was very dangerous.
really!
After the four people passed through a canyon, they were blocked by a huge monster in front of them.
"Earth Demon Bear!"
Su Ruirui's whole body's nerves suddenly became tense. This was an extremely difficult monster to deal with.
Bayuxuan and Chen Xiao immediately prepared for battle.
"you go!"
Su Ruirui looked at Yi Kang and asked him to deal with the Earth Demon Bear, while she stood still.
Yi Kang had a bitter look on his face and could only walk towards the Earth Demon Bear with his long sword in hand.
If they don't take action, they will lose the opportunity, because the Earth Demon Bear is already running towards them quickly.
"I'm going to help Brother Yi."
Chen Xiao needs to absorb a large amount of matter to practice the Nine Heavens Shocking Technique.
Su Ruirui nodded, agreeing.
The Earth Demon Bear is very powerful, comparable to the seventh or eighth level of human pill gathering. It is very difficult for Yi Kang to deal with it alone.
"Brother Chen, I will be the main attacker, and you will assist me."
Yi Kang didn't want Chen Xiao to take risks, so he took the initiative and asked Chen Xiao to wait for opportunities.
After saying that, Yi Kang's long sword had appeared. The sharp sword energy tore through the resistance of the air and appeared in front of the Earth Demon Bear.
"laugh!"
The Earth Demon Bear's speed was restricted. Yi Kang tore open the Earth Demon Bear's skin with a sword, and the Earth Demon Bear let out a scream of pain.
Chen Xiao was secretly surprised, this Yi Kang is not simple!
The swordsmanship moves are sophisticated and sophisticated, with no extraneous side branches.
Such fierce swordsmanship can only be experienced in the military.
Every move seems to have been refined thousands of times.
"Rumble..."
After the Earth Demon Bear was in pain, it suddenly kicked a huge stone on the ground with its right foot.
time.
Countless gravels, like hidden weapons, were shooting at them crazily.
The speed is extremely fast, and if you are not careful, your head will be shattered by the gravel.
Yi Kang immediately raised his sword to block, and a large amount of gravel was broken into pieces by him.
Su Ruirui used her true energy defense shield to protect Ba Yuxuan.
Those gravels would hardly shatter her defensive shield.
Chen Xiao used seven clever steps, and all the gravel shot towards him flew out almost against Chen Xiao's body.
Every step is exquisite.
Not harming the human in front of him made the Earth Demon Bear even more angry. He tore off his hooves and flew towards Yi Kang.
The earth was trembling, and the violent momentum rolled up a thick layer of dust.
The surrounding rocks kept flying up, making Yi Kang very passive.
Under the same circumstances, it is difficult for humans to kill monsters.
This Earth Demon Bear had rough skin and thick flesh, and Yi Kang just tore open his skin.
Chen Xiao stood on one side, with a long sword appearing in his palm, using his soul power to find the Earth Demon Bear's death spot.
The best way to deal with such a huge monster is to find its weak point and kill it with one blow.
The battle was in a stalemate, with back and forth, and Yi Kang had already used his sword dozens of times in a row.
There were also dozens of sword wounds on the body of the Earth Demon Bear.
The ground was dripping with blood, and the ground had already turned blood red.
The Nine Heavens Divine Pillar released a faint luster, and the Earth Demon Bear's movement gradually slowed down.
It wasn't that the Earth Demon Bear was slowing down, but that everything Chen Xiao saw was slowing down.
Su Ruirui frowned slightly, showing a trace of impatience as Yi Kang attacked for so long and still hadn't killed the Earth Demon Bear.
Surrounded by dangers, Su Ruirui did not dare to go more than ten steps away from Bayuxuan, lest someone attack her secretly.
Killing other teams happened from time to time in previous years.
Every year, a large number of princes died in royal hunting.
Bayuxuan has a distinguished status. If there are any shortcomings, Su Ruirui will not be able to explain it to the current Emperor.
Just when Yi Kang was at his wits' end, Chen Xiao suddenly drew his sword.
The Earth Demon Bear in front of him suddenly slowed down, and Chen Xiao found several flaws.
The body was like a dead leaf, suddenly floating up, and a strange sword appeared at the lower jaw of the Earth Demon Bear without any warning.
Extremely cunning!
