Time flies, and three full years have passed since the village was attacked by the horse bandits.
Qin Yu also practiced step by step, growing from an immature child to a true master of external skills.
Qin Yu will be sixteen years old soon this year.
In the Qianlong Continent of this world, the age of sixteen is the time of coming of age.
During the past three years, Qin Yu took Tie Xiaolu, who was injured and had a broken arm, to Yunwu Villa for treatment, and Tieshan naturally followed. The two lost their relatives, fatherless and motherless, and became orphans, so Qin Yu asked them to Working in Yunwu Villa.
Tieshan followed the soldiers of the Fierce Tiger Army in the villa to practice as a guard of Yunwu Villa, while Xiaolu became the maid of Yunwu Villa. Of course, this was only announced to the outside world. After all, Xiaolu lost an arm and was still young. Unable to do anything, Qin Yu just found a reason to leave him at Yunwu Villa.
The two of them were also well aware of Qin Yu's kindness. Tieshan worked hard to practice with the masters and vowed to become a real master and look after Qin Yu's home and hospital. Xiaolu, on the other hand, also learned to do what she could.
Another peaceful day.
The guard at the gate of Yunwu Villa leaned in front of the door and chatted about their Third Highness.
"Speaking of which, it seems that His Highness has been out for half a month, right?" The older guard rubbed his chin in thought.
The younger guard nodded slightly when he heard the words: "Yes, since the incident in the village three years ago, His Highness has practiced even harder, and often goes out for training. He goes out for ten days and a half at a time, which is really embarrassing. ah."
Speaking of this, the young guard sighed with emotion. People like His Highness the Third Highness can actually live a life of carefreeness without doing anything, but they work so hard. It is really impossible to generalize between people.
"Haha, our Third Highness has a bright future."
The older guard chuckled and agreed.
At this time, a roar of eagles came from a distance.
"Ah, His Highness is back."
The young guard heard the sound and looked into the distance.
I saw a huge black eagle heading towards Yunwu Villa.
This black eagle is completely black, except for the golden feathers on its head, which is as majestic as a crown. Its sharp eyes look down at the world from a high altitude, and its domineering aura is terrifying. At first glance, it is no ordinary eagle.
It's amazing to say that in just three years, the black eagle next to His Highness, which everyone thought was not big, suddenly grew like crazy, and is now much larger than the average eagle. It can even carry His Highness Three Highnesses to fly, which makes the Fierce Tiger Army in the Villa envious. After all, flying into the sky has always been what people yearn for.
At this moment, Qin Yu was riding Xiao Hei back.
As the huge figure of Black Eagle landed at the entrance of Yunwu Villa, Qin Yu jumped off its back.
Although Qin Yu was only sixteen years old in this matter, he already looked like a young man. He was about 1.8 meters tall, with sharp edges on his face and a faint smile that made people feel friendly.
He was wearing a dark vest and trousers made of special material, and his well-trained muscle lines were clearly revealed.
After landing, Qin Yu patted Xiao Hei's head affectionately: "Thank you for your hard work. Go to the mountains to find food by yourself."
Hearing this, the black eagle spread its wings again and soared into the sky at an extremely fast speed towards the distance.
"I have met His Highness the Third Prince."
The two guards knelt on one knee and saluted Qin Yu.
"Uncle Lan, A Tian, are you on duty today? How many times have I told you that you don't have to do this? Okay, I'll go in first and talk later." Qin Yu looked at the two of them and smiled helplessly.
To him, the people in Yunwu Villa are no different from his relatives, who have been with him since childhood. He has asked these people not to be formal, but they always say that this is the rule of the palace and cannot be broken.
"I wonder what the teacher is doing after not seeing you for so long?"
After saying goodbye to the guards, Qin Yu headed inside Yunwu Villa.
As he walked, he guessed what Sun Haoran was doing at the moment.
Speaking of which, he had never seen his teacher practicing. Most of the time, he would see him sitting on the top of a mountain blowing in the wind. He didn't know what he was thinking about all day long. It seemed that he was just living a magical life with nothing to do.
"You're back?"
But by chance today, Sun Haoran didn't seem to be out wandering around. Qin Yu came to the room and knocked on the door, and heard the response.
"Yes. Teacher."
Qin Yu responded respectfully and then opened the door.
Qin Yu was already used to it that the teacher knew it was him before he opened the door.
After all, I heard that people who have cultivated above immortality have the so-called divine consciousness, which can see long distances and know everything around them.
If someone else knocks on the door, the teacher will probably not respond.
Because for so many years, the teacher has never said a word to anyone in the palace except him.
But everyone in the palace is used to it.
Those who knew it thought he had the character of an immortal, while those who didn't know it still thought he was a silly boy.
Of course, as time went by, many people gradually realized that something was wrong.
After all, this idler who has been with the palace seems to have not changed at all since he came to the palace for so many years, as if he has been forgotten by time.
"Take off your clothes and let me see the results of your recent practice." Sun Haoran said calmly when Qin Yu came in, without raising his head.
"yes."
Qin Yu respectfully followed the instructions.
Don't get me wrong, when Sun Haoran said taking off his clothes, he didn't just take off his clothes, but let Qin Yu take off the burden on his body.
Qin Yu's unique vest is made of black gold wire and is extremely heavy. Although it looks like just a vest, it weighs one hundred kilograms. Of course, the value of black gold silk is also very terrifying, and it is almost priceless to ordinary people. Probably only he, the Third Prince of the Zhendong Palace, can weave a vest from such material and wear it.
After removing the weight from his body, Qin Yu jumped on the spot, feeling extremely light, as if he could reach the sky in one leap.
Of course, he also knew that this was an illusion that he had just taken off the weight.
"Teacher, I'm offended."
With that said, without any signal from Sun Haoran, Qin Yu's figure disappeared from the spot, and he waved his fist mercilessly towards Sun Haoran.
Qin Yu showed no mercy at all, because he knew that he could not hurt the teacher no matter what.
This is just the same test as always.
From the moment he officially entered the acquired realm, he would undergo tests like Sun Haoran's every time he returned from going out for training.
Bang——
Qin Yu's figure left quickly and came back quickly.
Oh no, not only came back, but also moved back a lot.
Hearing only a muffled sound, he flew out from the open door and landed in the flower bed in the yard.
"Teacher, have I really made any progress?"
Qin Yu stood up in disgrace and asked helplessly.
Every time he goes out and comes back, he is full of confidence, because he has the clearest perception of his own progress.
But every time he is shot away, this confidence will return to its original point.
Because it was exactly the same every time, being knocked away without making any progress. From the very beginning to now, he still didn't even know what the teacher had done.
"There is progress, but compared to my strength, it is still insignificant."
Sun Haoran answered calmly.
He was using himself as a yardstick to control Qin Yu's progress, and at the same time, he was able to keep this kid from being proud.
"Then...is it still far from meeting your requirements?" Qin Yu asked with some anxiety.
"Not even close."
Sun Haoran shook his head mercilessly, "Keep working hard. I have said that you must at least reach the extreme level of the day after tomorrow before you can bear it. What state are you in now?"
"Just entering the day after tomorrow..."
Qin Yu smiled awkwardly and scratched his head.
He tried.
He can probably punch a thousand pounds of force in front of him, and he is already a true acquired master of external skills.
Of course, compared to the man in front of him, his strength was still insignificant.
Sun Haoran glared at him angrily: "Haste makes waste. Compared to ordinary people, your progress is already very fast. Don't worry, I won't run away."
"Understood."
"Okay, let's continue practicing." With that said, Sun Haoran waved his hand to see the guest off.
"good……"
Qin Yu said and was about to turn around and leave, but as soon as he took a step, he seemed to think of something again, stopped and turned around, "By the way, teacher, my sixteenth birthday will be in three months, and my father will be there." The guests at the royal palace’s grand banquet will hold a coming-of-age ceremony for me, will you go back to the palace with me then?”
"Your coming-of-age ceremony..."
Sun Haoran thought for a while.
To be honest, he had no interest in the so-called coming-of-age ceremony.
But then I thought about it, Qin Yu can be regarded as the third highness of the Zhendong Prince's Palace, and for the coming-of-age ceremony for the dignified Prince of Zhendong, probably many forces in the entire Qianlong Continent will send people to congratulate him.
It seemed like a good idea to go check it out.
Maybe we can take advantage of the situation to understand the overall strength of this world.
That's right, although Sun Haoran has been in this world for several years, he still doesn't know the overall strength of the cultivators in this world. After all, he has been hiding in the mountains.
But I think the upper limit shouldn't be too high, because the cultivators in this world even start from mortals.
If it is really a high-level world like the so-called Immortal World, then most cultivators are probably born in the realm of Jindan or above, right? Otherwise, if we have to start counting from mortals, how can the fairyland be called the fairyland?
In short, Sun Haoran had already felt that the world he came to by accident was actually not more advanced than the previous world, but it was just a little richer in spiritual energy.
"Don't worry, I will be there, and I will prepare some gifts for you when the time comes, right?" Sun Haoran finally replied.
"Very good!"
When Qin Yu heard this, he became very happy and jumped away.
"This child..."
Looking at Qin Yu's excited back, Sun Haoran shook his head helplessly, "He's an adult now, and he's still like a child. By the way... what should I prepare as a gift?"
Sun Haoran started to have a headache.
"I remember that this kid should be training in some assassin organization now... Let's see what this guy still lacks first..."
Thinking of this, Sun Haoran stood up.
He planned to follow Qin Yu secretly to see the specific situation of this boy.
He remembered that this boy currently had swordsmanship like "Yu's Yijian" and seemed to have created his own movement technique called "Big Dipper Moonlight Dance".
Although they seem to be quite middle-class, they are still sufficient at this stage.
Weapons also include fish intestine swords.
It seems that there is really nothing missing.
Should I say that I am worthy of being a child of a wealthy family?
For a moment, Sun Haoran couldn't think of anything he could give Qin Yu.
We can only observe it first and then take a look.
············
Late at night a month later.
In the middle of a dark street in a certain city.
There were no pedestrians on the street at this moment, and the cold wind like a knife made Hao Cai, who was standing in the middle of the road wearing gorgeous clothes, couldn't help but squint his eyes.
All his attention was now on the man with a silver mask on his face who suddenly appeared in front of him.
Although carrying
Although he is wearing a mask, he can indeed tell from his figure that the other person is a man.
The height is about 1.75 meters, maybe closer to 1.8 meters.
The other party just stood in front of him quietly, staring at him with cold and ruthless eyes under the mask, but it made him feel unspeakable pressure.
This pressure is not because of the opponent's strength.
He couldn't feel anything from this man, so he couldn't know his strength, but his identity made him extremely afraid.
The silver mask is the symbol of Skynet's Silver Medal Killer.
Skynet is a huge killer organization that exists in every corner of the Qianlong Continent and has a history of more than a thousand years. It is absolutely the number one killer organization in the world. Its foundation is so deep that it may not even be matched by the three major dynasties.
No one knows who the leader of Skynet is, but no one dares to doubt Skynet's strength.
The entire Skynet is divided into 'internal network' and 'external network'.
The inner network is composed of killers trained by Skynet themselves. They are absolutely loyal to Skynet and their strength is unquestionable.
As for the external network, it is composed of some experts who want to make money but also want freedom. They do not have to be loyal to Skynet, they just take money to do things.
But whether it is an external network or an internal network, the strength of Skynet killers is the same, divided into gold medal, silver medal, and bronze medal killers, and what is clear at a glance is the mask on their faces.
If you want to become a bronze medal killer, you must be able to kill acquired mid-level masters, and for silver medals, you must be able to kill acquired extreme masters! As for the gold medal - it is said that even innate masters can only suffer under his hands.
This made Hao Tan sweat profusely at this moment.
Because the person standing in front of him at this moment was a peerless master who could theoretically kill the acquired ultimate.
His strength has not reached its ultimate level yet...
And it is said that Skynet's killers never fail.
A miss means death, but even if the prey is lucky enough to defeat the hunter and escape disaster, it will attract a more powerful hunter.
In short, no one can survive the endless pursuit once they are targeted by Skynet.
His name was actually on Skynet's bounty list, how could he remain calm? ?
