Chapter 280 Dajiaoping (Part 1)
Yi Xifeng noticed this transmission and deliberately slowed down his pace. When everyone walked out of the hall, he turned around and looked at Xiao Yuanfeng who was looking up.
It has to be said that the Lord Xiao of the Western Regions is a thoughtful person just from his appearance. To establish a city-state in the cunning Western Regions is no less difficult than establishing a third-rate sect in the Central Plains. Xiao Yuanfeng can be called a hero in terms of martial arts cultivation and skills.
"Do you have any instructions from City Lord Xiao?" Yi Xifeng asked calmly. Although this trip to the Western Regions concealed the sect's power behind him, he was after all an inner disciple of the Zhenwu Dao Hall, and the sect's reputation could not be lost.
Xiao Yuanfeng cupped his hands and said, "I just said it in a hurry, and I haven't even thanked Yi Shaoxia for making a special trip to Loulan City for this purpose."
Yi Xifeng quickly raised his hand and returned the greeting: "Fenghuo and Chengcheng and I are old acquaintances. Besides, Wu Li and I have cooperated in the Qingyun Sect before, so it's just a matter of effort."
"For Young Hero, it is a simple task, but for Loulan City it is of great significance. On behalf of the city guards stationed in Loulan, I would like to thank Young Hero." After saying this, Xiao Yuanfeng raised his head and looked over.
Seeing the other party's eyes, Yi Xifeng's heart moved slightly. The strength and cultivation level of this City Lord Xiao was indeed not low. Just one look made Yi Xifeng feel his hair standing on end.
He had felt this sense of oppression before when he faced off against the Miao pharmacist at the Dao Ascension Conference.
"The Great Chivalrous Realm! I didn't expect that City Lord Xiao could not only govern the people well, but he was also outstanding in his martial arts practice." Yi Xifeng's words were true.
Xiao Yuanfeng is nearly fifty years old, and he has reached the threshold of the hero realm in less than a year. Looking at all the sects in the world, they are also at the level of elders or inner sect elders. If placed in a more ordinary Jianghu sect, he would probably be at the level of a leader or great elder, and he would definitely be promoted very quickly.
Of course, you can't compare with those who have incredible talents. Take Medicine Master Miao as an example, Xiao Yuanfeng's level is similar to him. But Pharmacist Miao is much younger, less than thirty years old, but how many people in the world are as powerful as Pharmacist Miao?
If I have to say it, Li Chengtao can barely be counted as one, and late players like Li Chengqian are not among them.
Therefore, it can only be blamed that the people Yi Xifeng comes into contact with are too tough. At first glance, the cultivation level of this City Lord Xiao is not eye-catching, but if you really analyze it carefully, it is extremely rare.
"The Zhenwu Dao Hall is indeed a profound and outstanding person! At such an age, he has such courage and character... In Xiao's opinion, in the future, the name of Shaoxia Yi will definitely exist in the world!"
The two ended the simple "business mutual support" model and returned to the topic.
"Xiao has a question, please ask the young hero to clarify it."
"City Lord Xiao, please speak."
"Young Heroes Fenghuo and Lin Lei were ordered by our master to escort us back to Loulan to quell the chaos. As for Shopkeeper Qi, it was because his caravan had close contact with me in Loulan."
Having said this, he paused and continued: "I just don't know what Young Master Yi is going to do when he enters the Western Region this time?"
Yi Xifeng smiled slightly and said in a deep voice: "I came to the Western Region to fulfill my master's orders, but I cannot tell City Master Xiao the reason why. This matter involves the Demon Sect. If the time comes, I will tell you!"
Xiao Yuanfeng was keenly aware that Yi Xifeng was talking about "Demon Sect" rather than "Demon Sect", so he knew that there must be many sect secrets involved. As one of the countries in the Western Region, Loulan City naturally wanted to have as little involvement in the affairs of these eight sects as possible.
"Then according to Yi Shaoxia's wishes, how should I, Loulan, respond at this time?" Xiao Yuanfeng paused and continued to ask.
Hearing that the other party finally asked the most important question, Yi Xifeng said with a smile: "To untie the bell, you must tie the bell!"
"Oh? How do you say this?"
"Since the master of the Demon Cult behind the scenes wants Loulan City to send troops to fight, then let's fight. No matter what conspiracy he has, as long as he wins all the way, he will eventually show up." At this point, Yi Xifeng pointed his finger and continued: "After all, this is the Western Region, not the Demonic Kingdom."
…
Thirty miles east of Loulan City is a mountainous area. It is not that it is filled with towering mountains, but it is surrounded by desert and full of quicksand. Only this small, spacious plain could accommodate caravans and carriages, and it naturally became a well-known traffic artery.
Groups of horse thieves have set up camp on this plain. Looking at this posture, they are a large force of horse thieves. Who else could it be if it weren't the Bachi Barbarian Tribe?
"Report! Report from the front. Traces of the third master's family were found ten miles south of here, but..." At this point, the horse thief paused and did not continue to report.
"What did you find? There must be an explanation for life or death!" A bald man shouted sullenly.
This person is the leader of the Bachi Man Tribe. As a horse thief tribe, anyone who becomes a tribe leader will take the title of tribe. As for his real name, it is not that important.
"A lot of people died, but judging from the battlefield, both sides of the war should be our people. This group of people led by the Third Master may have had serious internal strife!"
"Internal strife? How is that possible?!" Bachiman knew well about Dalamute's influence in the entire horse thieves tribe. The team of nearly a hundred horse thieves he brought out can be called his direct force. If all these hundred or so people rebelled, he wouldn't be surprised. But if there was any internal strife among these people, he wouldn't believe it if they were beaten to death!
"Master, this is true from the battlefield, and we didn't find the body of the third master." The horse thief was also very confused and at a loss. After all, the team led by the third master can be regarded as one of the important combat forces of the Eight Red Barbarians. . They died so silently in the desert ten miles away. Most of them died fighting each other, which made him feel a little scared.
"About how long have these brothers been dead?" Bachiman asked aloud.
"About two days or so." The horse thief replied in a low voice.
The bald man secretly made some calculations. The time set by Mozi Qianyuan was still short, and he probably didn't have much room to choose. In fact, Dalamt's sudden disappearance is not a bad thing. At least in the short term, he is the only voice in the entire Bachiman tribe.
And those horse thieves who were once ready to take refuge with the third leader gave up the idea and could only follow him and work their lives with peace of mind. And this battle with the Loulan City Guards must be the best time for them to submit the certificate.
"Brothers, I, the Bachiman Tribe, am a lone wolf running around in the Western Region! As the old saying goes, a wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat, and a dog travels a thousand miles to eat shit! How can brothers improve the food? The battle is waiting for us! "
Hundreds of horse thieves and bandits were sitting on their horses, and they burst out laughing when they heard the words of their boss.
