"Don't worry, just listen to me." Yuan Li's appearance also made Qin Huai smile helplessly, but from another perspective, Yuan Li was so cautious because of his concern for him, which is not unvaluable.
After Qin Huai's first trial with the Crimson Ape King, he had already vaguely discovered that the strength of the Crimson Ape King had at least reached Qian Cangjing, which was not something he could deal with.
But even facing such a powerful opponent, Qin Huai never thought of blaming Yuanli for his decision.
Because he knew that Yuan Li and Li Tianye placed all their hopes on him, which was a kind of sincere trust deep in their hearts. Although he was extremely dangerous when facing Qian Cangjing's Red Ape King, at that time , the situation of Yuan Li and Li Tianye was not much better.
So when reviewing the situation just now, Yuanli immediately felt guilty when he heard that Qin Huai was facing a Crimson Ape King with the strength of Qian Cang Mirror, even though Qin Huai was already standing beside him intact. In front of me, but when I mention it, I still have lingering fears.
If Qin Huai's strength and luck happened to reach that critical point and he was killed by the Red Ape King in this forest, Yuan Li would have indirectly killed Qin Huai. At that time, Yuan Li would not know how to face everyone.
Seemingly seeing the fear in Yuan Li's eyes, Qin Huai patted his shoulder lightly and said with a smile, "I'm not doing a good job."
Originally, according to Yuan Li's understanding of the red ape species, when the strength of the red ape group was only average, the red ape king would also be proportional to that.
Yuan Li speculated that the strength of the leader of the group of red apes they encountered was probably around the Martial Soul Mirror. Qin Huai, who had a high-level weapon like the Shu level, could naturally handle it easily.
But I never thought that there would be a special case. When the strength of the tribe was so low, the Crimson Ape King could reach the level of Qian Cangjing.
"It's no wonder that hegemonism appears. The strength of this group of red apes is not evenly distributed. The King of Red Apes is the dominant family, but there is no means to restrict it." At this moment, regarding the current status of this group of red apes within the clan, Yuan The distance has been completely clarified.
"Well, the Crimson Ape King of Gan Cangjing is indeed very difficult to deal with. Even the phoenix in my hand cannot hurt it at all." Recalling the scene of fighting the Crimson Ape King, Qin Huai couldn't help but sigh.
The Crimson Ape King was not only as powerful as Qian Cang Jing, he also knew a lot of fighting skills and was able to successfully counter Qin Huai's attacks several times.
And the sonic attack released from its mouth directly affected Qin Huai's internal organs for an instant, making him temporarily sluggish.
Afterwards, Qin Huai told Yuan Li about the cause of death of the Red Ape King, and the latter immediately started thinking:
"So, the ability to defeat the Red Ape King depends on the phoenix in your hand? But why did the Red Ape King make a long cry to reveal its identity when your search was fruitless? With its current intelligence, You shouldn’t make such a stupid mistake..."
Qin Huai shrugged, also indicating that he was confused.
Just when the two of them had no idea, an old voice came from a hidden corner behind them.
"No need to guess, I did it all."
Looking along where the sound came from, Qin Huai and Yuan Li exclaimed in unison: "Elder Xu?"
"Were you the one who helped us?" Qin Huai looked at Elder Xu who walked slowly and slowly with his hands behind his back, and it was hard to understand his behavior. If he helped them secretly, why didn't he show up in person.
After all, the situation just now can be said to be extremely dangerous. If you are not careful, it will cause irreparable harm.
"Nonsense, if not me, who else can help you!" Elder Xu mouthed, and he was immediately angered by Qin Huai's words.
"I took a little action to expose the location of the Red Ape King. Fortunately, you are not stupid." Elder Xu said angrily.
Qin Huai frowned. Since the hiding location of the originally traceless Red Ape King was secretly hinted by Elder Xu, then it is possible that Elder Xu also controlled Fengzi's automatic activation of piercing the Red Ape King.
Just as he was about to open his mouth, Elder Xu stretched out his hand to make a sign of interruption, and then said somewhat proudly: "I know what you want to ask. Yes, the power of your Shu-level weapon is indeed amazing. I just waved it lightly. Kill that beast."
At this point, the mystery has been solved. It was Elder Xu who originally led them into the forest, but as soon as they entered the forest, Elder Xu left a general direction for them, and then disappeared. .
As a result, the three of them forgot that a master like Elder Xu was accompanying them.
After Qin Huai knew that Elder Xu had slightly manipulated Feng Xi to kill the Red Ape King, his heart was filled with unprecedented turmoil.
The same weapon, in his hands, could not even break the defense of the Red Ape King. On the other hand, Elder Xu was able to exert such terrifying power without any experience in controlling Feng Xi.
Such attainments in swordsmanship also made Qin Huai more and more convinced of his choice.
Suddenly at this time, Elder Xu showed a meaningful smile and said to Qin Huai and Yuan Li: "What I just did was all done by me. I also did one more thing. I forgot to tell you. The red ape is also me. Led here."
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence. The corners of Qin Huai's mouth twitched a few times. He never expected that the culprit who put the three of them into such a dangerous situation was Elder Xu?
Qin Huai and the others worked hard to resist the red ape beast, and their friendship through thick and thin was ultimately a game arranged by Elder Xu?
Thinking of this, Yuanli became even more angry. He was not familiar with Elder Xu, and he didn't even know much about it. If it weren't for Qin Huai taking the initiative to ask him for advice, Yuanli would have never wanted to have anything to do with such an old man with a weird personality. intersection.
Yuanli knows how dangerous it is for Qin Huai to face a red ape king with the strength of Qian Cang Jing alone. If something goes wrong and something happens to Qin Huai, who will bear the consequences? ?
In addition to Qin Huai, there is also Li Tianye. Li Tianye is still a martial arts practitioner who has transformed into a mirror. In the hard battle just now, he has almost exhausted his fuel. Lian Yuanli can replenish the energy in his body by himself. Wu Yuan's Wu Po Mirror is too much to replenish, let alone Li Tianye?
Li Tianye's consumption this time has put a huge load on his body. If he is unlucky and causes irreversible damage, who will bear the consequences?
So the moment Elder Xu told the truth, Yuan Li's face became more and more gloomy, and the most basic sense of respect for him just now disappeared in an instant. He didn't say a word or even look at him in the whole process. Elder Xu.
Qin Huai, who noticed Yuan Li's strangeness, also poked Yuan Li's waist gently from behind, and then coughed twice. He did not rush to attack, nor did he take the lead in asking questions, but quietly waited for Elder Xu's next words.
As for Elder Xu, at his age, it is impossible to say that he really has no eyesight. He is a thousand-year-old fox, and he can see what Yuan Li is thinking at a glance.
He also touched his white beard, narrowed his eyes slightly and said:
"Baby Yuanli, I know you are on good terms with Qin Huai, but there is no need for you to have such big objections to me. Although the process is a bit difficult, it is a test that you have to endure."
Because of these words, Yuan Li was willing to look at Elder Xu again, looking at his suddenly serious and enigmatic look, which was really incompatible with his playful smile and occasional bit of meanness. When they got together, they cursed secretly in their hearts:
"It's weird old man."
Of course, no matter how cunning Elder Xu is, he can't hear Yuan Li's inner voice.
It happened that at this moment, Li Tianye slowly exited the cultivation state, exhaled lightly, and slowly opened his eyes, and Elder Xu's figure appeared in his eyes.
"Elder Xu, why are you here? Are you here to help us?"
Li Tianye's mind is relatively simple, so he doesn't reject Elder Xu too much and still maintains mutual respect. However, when he said that Elder Xu came to help, Yuanli on the side couldn't help but scolded him. Elder Xu rolled his eyes.
Elder Xu was about to say something, but Yuan Li took the opportunity to interrupt him and asked Li Tianye, "How are you recovering? Are there any bad effects?"
Elder Xu was stunned when Yuan Li snatched his words. There was something suddenly in his eyes when he looked at Yuan Li.
Qin Huai was also on the sidelines, hurriedly smoothing things over and laughing with him.
Although Li Tianye felt something strange about Yuanli, he couldn't figure out the specific reason. However, when asked about cultivation, Li Tianye replied with excitement:
"It has not yet returned to its peak state, but it has almost recovered. Although there are some limits, it has not left any trouble. On the contrary, there are faint signs of advancing to the peak of Huayijing. I believe that with the help of the Qi-Entraining Sun, I will be able to It can be successful.”
Hearing this, Yuan Li also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Since what he feared most did not happen, he no longer had to confront Elder Xu.
After turning his head, Yuan Li remained silent again, but the gloomy look on his face softened a lot.
Elder Xu saw everything with his eyes, but did not express any opinions. He said eloquently with his hands behind his back: "Since Li Tianye has just recovered, I will say it once, so as not to repeat it a second time. "
"Yes, you are being besieged by a group of red apes. It was all planned by me. I lured them here. I also killed the red ape king."
Li Tianye had just returned from his cultivation state, and his eyes widened when he heard these words.
"Qin Huai wants to learn swordsmanship from me, that's fine, but Mr. Xu's swordsmanship is by no means mediocre, and mortals are not qualified to listen."
"Everything that happened today was also my test for the three of you."
