Chapter 125
Although Qiu Hu's words sounded unkind, Xiao Zhan smiled.
He felt that Qiu Hu's character was quite similar to his own.
Holding his fists, Xiao Zhan said softly:
"Senior Qiu Hu, you owe Senior Fang Qunfeng a debt of gratitude, and I also owe him a debt of gratitude. To a certain extent, we should be friends."
Qiu Hu frowned, "What do you want to say?"
Xiao Zhan said sincerely:
"Senior and I will hunt down those one hundred Qingtian Sect disciples."
Although Qiu Hu doesn't like to talk, it doesn't mean that he is stupid.
Although he is not a very valued figure in the Qingtian Sect and usually does not pay attention to him, but in a decisive moment, the Qingtian Sect discovered that Zhao Kuo did not bring anyone back, and they will definitely suspect that when the time comes, people who have been away from the Qingtian Sect for too long will , will be investigated.
The longer he stays in Huangzhou, the greater the possibility that he will be exposed.
Qiu Hu nodded expressionlessly, sat down cross-legged again, and began to adjust his condition.
A few hours later, Qiu Hu got up and ran wildly in one direction.
Xiao Zhan quickly followed.
Less than a thousand miles away from the coastline, there is a gentle beach.
According to Xiao Zhan's inference, since the one hundred Qingtian Sect disciples were waiting for the Qingtian Sect's ships to investigate, the hiding place must not be too far from the coastline.
Sure enough, after searching for less than a thousand miles along the coastline, Xiao Zhan saw a large group of footprints that extended from the coast to the dense forest not far away.
But Xiao Zhan is not a reckless person.
If these footprints were left deliberately just to confuse you, then there might be a trap waiting for you.
Qiu Hu glanced at Xiao Zhan and said expressionlessly:
"You're overthinking, they're not that smart."
"Although Qingtian Sect is the top force in Qingzhou, when recruiting disciples, they always only look at talent."
"Most of these disciples are members of wealthy families. They have had a smooth journey since joining the Qingtian Sect. Most of them have never even experienced combat."
Xiao Zhan frowned slightly and said nothing. Instead, he followed Qiu Hu across the beach and rushed into the dense forest like two fierce tigers.
Sure enough, as Qiu Hu said, these one hundred disciples didn't have much experience at all.
When they were found, they were sitting on a flat ground with a fire set up and roasting a wild boar.
The wild boar was roasted until it crackled and exuded a rich aroma.
A group of people seemed to have forgotten the danger, and cut off a piece with their swords and began to enjoy the delicious food.
They didn't even have anyone on guard duty.
Only when Xiao Zhan and Qiu Hu approached within a hundred meters did they feel murderous intent.
Xiao Zhan is now in the late stage of Qi Gathering Realm and is stronger than these people.
Not to mention that Qiu Hu is a master at the early stage of Yuan Dan realm.
The spear in Qiu Hu's hand blasted out, causing sand and rocks to fly around him.
As soon as a group of people reacted, dozens of them were blown away by the violent explosion.
The fire that was originally burning was now blasted out into a large crater several meters deep.
"Run away! It's Qiu Hu!"
The remaining dozens of people hurriedly ran in all directions.
But Xiao Zhan was obviously faster than them.
The Red Dragon Sword slashed out suddenly, and the nine willow leaf flying knives attached to the blade burst out.
In just the blink of an eye, more than a dozen people died under Xiao Zhan's sword.
Although they tried to resist, their efforts were in vain due to the crushing strength.
Not long after, the ground was littered with corpses.
Qiu Hu flicked his wrist, and the blood on the spear was thrown away.
He looked at Xiao Zhan and said indifferently:
"If I were at the same level as you, I would not be your match."
Xiao Zhan smiled and clasped his fists, without saying anything modest.
Qiu Hu walked towards the beach and said slowly:
"Give me my boat back."
Xiao Zhan smiled awkwardly, and then took Qiu Hu to the place where he hid the ship.
Qiu Hu jumped onto the ship's building and walked into the control cabin, only to find that not a single true essence stone used to control the ship's building was left.
Xiao Zhan smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry, senior, the True Essence Stone was used by me."
Qiu Hu frowned, "Where are the rest?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head, "I used them all."
A chill flashed across Qiu Hu's face, and he said coldly: "It would take at least five days for me to absorb so many True Essence Stones. Now that you say you've used them all, do you think it's easy for me to talk to you?"
Xiao Zhan shook his head, "I'm really done with it. I'm not telling any lies. If I have a chance in the future, I'll pay double the amount back to my seniors."
Qiu Hu glanced at Xiao Zhan coldly and blasted the spear into the water.
The next moment, the seawater exploded, and an iron box fixed to the bottom of the ship with an iron chain flew out at the same time.
Qiu Hu picked up the iron box and walked into the cockpit. The next moment, the ship building slowly rose into the air, and then flew out close to the sea.
Xiao Zhan watched the boat building leave until he could no longer see the shadow of the boat building, and then he said with emotion, "You are still hotter when you are old."
After a while, Xiao Zhan returned to the place where one hundred Qingtian Sect disciples died.
What surprised Xiao Zhan was that a black wild boar, more than three meters tall and ten meters long, with hair as tough as steel needles all over its body, was tearing at these corpses angrily.
This super big wild boar, with two tusks half a meter long, and a mouth full of fangs, exuded an aura that was even more powerful than Qiu Hu and Zhao Kuo.
Xiao Zhan retreated quietly and left here as quickly as possible.
But Xiao Zhan quickly remembered a detail.
That was when he and Qiu Hu left here before, Qiu Hu seemed to have thrown something that looked like a pebble, and that thing also exuded a strange fragrance.
Is there a possibility that Qiu Hu deliberately used that thing to attract this super big wild boar?
Xiao Zhan had to sigh once again, people should not be judged by their appearance, Lao Jiang is hot.
Whether it was Fang Qunfeng or now Qiu Hu, Xiao Zhan admired him from the bottom of his heart.
But then, Xiao Zhan frowned.
Zhao Kuo and these one hundred Qingtian Sect disciples will definitely attract an investigation from the Qingtian Sect. When the time comes, there may be even more powerful people.
The current crisis has been resolved, but the next crisis will only be more severe.
This is tantamount to treating the symptoms but not the root cause.
Even Xiao Zhan couldn't think of any proper solution at the moment.
Half a month later, Xiao Zhan returned to Yanlong City.
To Xiao Zhan's surprise, the weapons, equipment and living supplies sent by Yanlong Kingdom were already in place.
Looking at the city defense system being assembled outside Yanlong City, Xiao Zhan finally let out a sigh of relief.
Even Lan Su and Qin Ming looked at these weapons with curiosity.
Although they are masters of the Qi Sea Realm, they still don't know much about these technological equipment.
On the contrary, every member of the Temple of War is familiar with these weapons.
Yuan Ye stood in front of Xiao Zhan with excitement on his face and reported:
"Master, this time we have transported a total of 20,000 mortars and 500,000 shells, all of which have been improved. A single salvo can level even a mountain."
As he spoke, Yuan Ye pointed in several directions around Yanlong City:
"Halfway up the hillside in the east, at the top of the peak in the west, and in the four directions of the city, we have already arranged them."
"This kind of firepower is enough to cover a five-kilometer radius around Yanlong City."
Seeing Xiao Zhan nodding, Yuan Ye lowered his voice and continued:
"The silos are already being dug in the city, and all long-range weapons have begun to be assembled. They will be deployed in about a month."
"In addition, within a radius of thousands of miles, all places that are easy to defend and difficult to attack have been laid out. The first batch of reinforced mines have been laid in places that are easy to attack and difficult to defend. All strategic materials have been transported to various strongholds."
"Also, the phone lines have been laid in advance."
"Also, the next batch of strategic materials is expected to arrive in three months. I heard that Yanlong Kingdom is already researching new equipment based on the sap fuel we sent."
"In addition, a group of scientists will come to Yanlong City with the next batch of supplies."
After saying that, Yuan Ye sighed, "It's a pity that the signal base station cannot be used here, otherwise it would be more convenient to use a mobile phone or satellite phone."
Xiao Zhan shook his head: "Be content."
As soon as he finished speaking, a member of the Temple of War came to Xiao Zhan and said in a deep voice:
"Palace Master, we received a call from a sentry point about 5,000 kilometers away in the southwest. We found a suspicious team heading towards Yanlong City. There are about 2,000 people in total. The specific strength is not yet known. Do you want to order an interception?"
Xiao Zhan's face turned cold:
"Order hidden observation and let them come!"
Yuan Ye clenched his fists tightly, his eyes bursting with fierce fighting spirit:
"Palace Master, how about I take someone to take a look."
Xiao Zhan slowly shook his head and said indifferently:
"If they are really enemies, then let them try our Yanlong City's firepower."
"Yuan Ye, pass my order, everyone should go to their respective positions and hide."
Yuan Ye suddenly laughed.
Five thousand miles away, an old man with a gloomy face was walking menacingly through the dense forest with two thousand people.
This old man was short in stature, no more than 1.5 meters at most. He was wearing a vest and shorts made of bark, and straw sandals on his feet. He exuded a powerful aura.
There were about two thousand people behind him, including old men with white beards and hair, and young men whose faces had not yet lost their childishness, but each of them was holding a gleaming scimitar in his hand.
After passing through the dense forest, a desolate Gobi Desert appeared in front of us.
The leading short old man stopped, and everyone behind him also stopped.
Ten Qi Gathering Realm masters came to the short old man one after another.
One of the old men in the late stage of Qi Gathering Realm gritted his teeth and said:
"Island Master, this is the direction!"
"The heroic spirits of our ten thousand warriors on Nanye Island will definitely protect us and wipe out all those trash from Yanlong City!"
The short old man gave this man a cold look and said in a hoarse and deep voice:
"More than 10,000 people in Yanlong City were poisoned and trapped in the valley, and you actually let them be rescued! They were rescued by a kid from the Qi Gathering Realm! And you even let him kill more than 10,000 of us! You yourself It’s a waste!”
The ten Qi Gathering Realm masters looked pained.
Those more than 10,000 people are all the hope of Nanye Island.
The short old man's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "Occupy Yanlong City, kill all the adults, and bring all those children back to Nanye Island. In a few years, they will forget about Yanlong City and become our warriors on Nanye Island!"
The ten Qi Gathering Realm masters nodded repeatedly.
Suddenly, a shout came from the side.
Everyone turned around and saw a man in his thirties running towards them.
He fell down in front of the short old man and gasped:
"Island Master, we have found the Zhenrong Kingdom's stronghold in the Lost Land!"
The short old man's eyes flashed and he grabbed the man's neck, "How many people are there?"
The man quickly said:
"There are more than 20,000 people, and most of them are young women! The most powerful of them have just been promoted to the Qi Sea Realm!"
The short old man nodded, threw the man to the ground, looked back at the people behind him and said:
"After taking Yanlong City, we will immediately go to Zhenrong Kingdom's stronghold in the Lost Land!"
As he spoke, the short old man glanced at the young people in the team and said in a deep voice:
"Bring all those women back to Nanye Island. From now on, you can give me as many children as you can give birth to every year! Our Nanye Island must grow as fast as possible!"
A group of young people looked excited and started shouting strangely.
After a while, the short old man led the people into the Gobi Desert.
Yanlong City.
Xiao Zhan, Lan Su, and Qin Ming stood on the top of the pyramid, looking at the dark clouds in the sky in the distance.
The wind was also filled with a chilling air.
Finally, a team of about two thousand people appeared in sight.
The short old man also saw the majestic Yanlong City.
His eyes were full of excitement, and he sped up even more.
Although he knew that there were at least 10,000 people in Yanlong City, he firmly believed that he could easily win Yanlong City.
Because his strength has improved again and he has entered the late stage of Qi Sea Realm.
