Chapter 776
Xiao Zhan didn't waste any time, put away the token and map, then turned and left.
Two hours later, Xiao Zhan took Li Yong and left Pingxi Hou Mansion.
The location marked on the map is probably less than 8,000 miles away from Pingxi Hou Mansion.
Logically speaking, if you go at full speed, you can arrive in half a month at most.
But what Xiao Zhan didn't expect was that when he followed the route, he actually took the wrong route three times in a row. On the fourth time, he successfully approached the target area, which showed how hidden this place was.
Among the barren mountains, there is a forest of strange rocks.
As soon as the two of them entered the strange stone forest, Xiao Zhan suddenly stopped. .z.br>
"What's wrong, brother?" Li Yong looked at Xiao Zhan with confusion on his face.
Xiao Zhan shook his head slowly, his eyes scanning the strange stone forest.
Suddenly, Xiao Zhan's eyes flashed, and he kicked out suddenly. A stone the size of a fist flew out and hit hard on a stone more than ten meters high.
"boom!"
The stone exploded instantly.
Two black shadows instantly rushed out from behind the exploded stone, one on the left and one on the right, and surrounded Xiao Zhan.
The two men wore black armor, with black masks on their faces, and held long gray knives in their hands. The blades were sharp and emitted bursts of cold light.
What surprised Xiao Zhan the most was that the auras emanating from these two people were both in the early stage of the Youhu Realm.
The two were extremely fast and cooperated very well. The two of them blocked almost all of Xiao Zhan's dodge routes.
Xiao Zhan was not a soft persimmon either. He blasted out his wind palm with violent force, instantly sending the two men flying backwards.
The opponent didn't pause the moment he landed. He stepped forward again, and the scimitar in his hand slashed out streaks of light, shrouding Xiao Zhan.
Li Yong, who was standing nearby, shouted loudly: "The Marquis of Pingxi asked us to come!"
But these two people seemed not to have heard anything and were still attacking Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan punched the two of them respectively. The sharp wind of the punch was wrapped in black lightning and came to the two of them in an instant.
The reaction of these two people could not be described as unpleasant.
They waved the long knives in their hands, instantly smashed the fist seals, and rushed forward again.
Xiao Zhan could feel the fighting spirit emanating from these two people.
It just so happened that Xiao Zhan also wanted to test how much progress he had made during this period.
Then Xiao Zhan's figure flashed and he distanced himself from the two men.
The next moment, Xiao Zhan raised his arms and clenched his fists fiercely.
At this moment, the surrounding netherworld power seemed to be stunned, and then poured into Xiao Zhan's body crazily.
"boom!"
Xiao Zhan's left and right fists blasted out five black fist seals respectively. Black lightning lingered on the fist prints, crackling continuously. When they were about to bombard the two people, the five fist seals were instantly superimposed on each other. Together.
The power of the black fist seal surged, and the two men immediately held their long knives in front of themselves to resist.
But the next moment, I still saw two long knives shattering instantly, and the two people's bodies flew out violently, smashing several large rocks like a cannonball. Finally, they lay on the ground and kept struggling, but they were powerless. Get up again.
Li Yong quickly stepped forward and pulled off the black masks on the faces of these two people.
"Brother, come and see, these two people are so strange."
Xiao Zhan calmed down his own energy fluctuations and then walked over.
Sure enough, these were two men. Their age could not be discerned, and their eyes showed no emotion. They were just still struggling, trying to get up and attack Xiao Zhan.
Li Yong frowned and said:
"Brother, I feel like they have no thinking at all, like dead warriors who only retain their fighting instincts."
Xiao Zhan nodded, because he felt the same way.
At this moment, several other black shadows suddenly shot out from the depths of the strange stone forest.
The one who fought just now
The movement was quite large and had already alerted others.
A total of more than a dozen people came, all wearing black masks. The one at the front was a woman.
As for why Xiao Zhan was able to recognize that the leader was a woman, it was because even though she was wearing armor, she could still see her graceful figure, and she could also see some of the flexibility of a woman from her movements.
The leading woman waved her hand, and a dozen people behind him instantly surrounded Xiao Zhan and Li Yong.
She stared at Xiao Zhan with her cold eyes and said in a voice without any emotion:
"who?!"
Xiao Zhan didn't waste any time and took out the token given by Marquis Pingxi from his arms.
Seeing the token, the woman's eyes froze, and she waved her hand to signal the dozen or so people she brought with her to retreat.
"follow me."
The woman said coldly, and then rushed into the strange stone forest.
Xiao Zhan followed closely with Li Yong.
Not long after, the woman led the two of them through the strange stone forest and came to a valley.
There are gentle hillsides on the left and right sides of the valley, and in the middle of the valley there is a creek less than two meters wide.
Stone houses were built on the hillsides on both sides. Figures wearing black armor and black masks were scattered in different corners of the valley.
Some are meditating in seclusion, and some are sparring with each other.
Xiao Zhan took a quick look and saw that there were almost 50,000 people.
Xiao Zhan got straight to the point:
"Marquis Pingxi asked me to come to you and take you to a place."
The woman looked at Xiao Zhan with cold eyes and said:
"Where?"
Xiao Zhan took out the map and pointed at the gap in the mountain range.
The woman obviously knew where this place was. She just glanced at it, then turned and shouted into the valley:
"gather!"
In less than two minutes, everyone, whether they were practicing in seclusion or on guard, came to the woman.
Fifty thousand people, with orders and prohibitions, can basically be seen as having very strong combat effectiveness, at least not comparable to those of the soldiers of the Hou Mansion.
Moreover, Xiao Zhan was a little confused as to why Pingxi Marquis secretly cultivated these 50,000 people.
The woman is the leader of these 50,000 people.
Soon, she gave the order to set off.
Xiao Zhan, Li Yong, and this woman led the way.
Along the way, the atmosphere was very dull.
Xiao Zhan didn't take the initiative to speak, and the woman didn't speak either. The fifty thousand elites didn't make any noise.
Before coming, Marquis Pingxi and Xiao Zhan said that this woman was his adopted daughter.
Then this woman should also be named Zhuang.
Xiao Zhan glanced at the map, then turned around and said:
"Commander Zhuang, I think it is necessary to take a detour."
"Since you were secretly trained by the Marquis, you'd better try not to be discovered by others."
"If you continue walking in this direction, you might encounter soldiers from the Hou Mansion."
The woman stepped forward, took the map in Xiao Zhan's hand, glanced at it, and then pointed in the direction.
The fifty thousand elites behind him immediately walked in that direction.
This scene made Xiao Zhan even more certain that these 50,000 people were trained as dead soldiers. They had no emotions at all and only knew how to obey orders.
The woman continued walking without saying a word.
Suddenly, the woman suddenly raised her right arm, and saw 50,000 elites instantly stop and squat down.
The team was now on the mountainside of a high mountain.
From this angle, we can clearly see that in the ravine below, there is a refugee team of about 10,000 people.
They are called refugees because they wear rags and have unkempt hair.
But both Xiao Zhan and this woman noticed something was wrong.
Because this group of refugees has a clear division of labor, some are on guard duty, some are practicing, everything is in order.
They looked orderly and didn't look like refugees at all.
Xiao Zhan's eyes narrowed.
"Li Yong, come with me to have a look."
After Xiao Zhan said this, he quietly approached the ravine, and Li Yong quickly followed Xiao Zhan.
The woman who commanded fifty thousand elites still had cold and calm eyes.
She made a gesture and saw the 50,000 elites behind her starting to spread out to the left and right, and then silently surrounded them towards the ravine.
