Yang Fan is now an eighth-level spiritual master. Although his overall cultivation strength is not as good as the peak of a grandmaster, it is still comparable, and his spiritual sense is extremely sharp.
What's more, because of Su Li's sudden approach just now, Yang Fan had quietly placed a mental barrier within ten meters around him as an early warning, in order to prevent Su Li or anyone else from secretly approaching him. Will suddenly rush over and attack him.
In this case, even if a half-step king like Sha Qingsi approaches him, he should be able to sense it.
But the current situation was that someone had already moved within half a meter in front of him, but he didn't know anything about it. If the person hadn't taken the initiative to speak, he might never have discovered such a person.
"who?!"
Although no malice could be heard in the stranger's voice, Yang Fan was still frightened and turned around quickly.
Then, he saw a very kind-looking old man with a white beard looking at him with a complicated expression.
"It turns out to be Mr. Qu, you are so polite here!"
Yang Fan breathed a sigh of relief, took a step back, and greeted Qu Hongde with cupped hands and fists. At the same time, he felt a little excited and asked softly: "Mr. Qu, have you successfully broken through?"
Yang Fan had just saved Qu Hongde's life yesterday, and had a good impression of this old man who had no regard for life and death. He was half one of his own, so he didn't have to worry about Qu Hongde deliberately harming him because of some external possessions.
Moreover, Qu Hongde was taken away by Fu Zhengqing yesterday, but he went there to break through and advance to the realm of kings. Now looking at him with such an air of immortality and elusiveness, people can't see the depth of his mysterious posture. Maybe he is really gone. The breakthrough was successful!
"The lucky breakthrough is all thanks to my wonderful medical skills, so I am here to express my gratitude to you." Qu Hongde showed a smile on his face and looked at Yang Fan gratefully.
Because of the viper's poison, he was trapped in the half-step king realm for more than eighty years. Only he could understand the bitterness and helplessness best.
Therefore, Qu Hongde was grateful from the bottom of his heart to Yang Fan who had cured his internal injuries and successfully isolated the viper's poison.
After saying that, Qu Hongde straightened up, bowed deeply to Yang Fan, and said solemnly: "Thank you, little friend Yang Fan!"
Yang Fan waved his hands to hide away, but found that the roots of his feet did not seem to be growing on the pine wood under his feet, and could not move at all. He shook his head and smiled bitterly, and had no choice but to accept Qu Hongde's gift.
This old man is really law-abiding and stubborn in what he does.
"You're welcome, sir!" After Qu Hongde thanked him and saluted, Yang Fan regained his freedom and said softly: "I'm getting paid to treat your injuries. You don't owe me anything."
Qu Hongde shook his head: "How can a little money make up for the life-saving grace and the virtue of rebuilding?"
Yang Fan was overjoyed. He had to say that he liked such honest people. To be so grateful to a king-level powerhouse was really a joyful event that made people feel extremely happy.
Beautiful, beautiful.
"I wonder how long Mr. Qu has been here?" Not wanting to be polite back and forth on the matter of kindness, Yang Fan changed the subject and asked Qu Hongde softly.
Qu Hongde turned his head and glanced at the people who were fighting, and said softly: "When you and the green-haired girl came out of the spiritual protective formation, I was already here."
"Originally, I got the news and wanted to come over to save people and hunt monsters. I wanted to thank my friends on the way. I didn't expect to encounter such a nasty thing. These people who support the Ministry of Finance are getting more and more outrageous!"
Qu Hongde sighed softly. When he looked at Ding Mian, Zhang Dehui and Chen Liyan, a coldness flashed in his eyes. It could be seen that the old man was also extremely disappointed with the performance of these three people.
When Yang Fan heard this, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
After listening to Qu Hongde's judgment and suggestions on Su Li just now, Yang Fan thought that this old man was a good old man with the attributes of a holy mother, and wanted to be open to everyone.
Now it seems that he has completely overthought it.
Qu Hongde had been watching from the side since the very beginning of the conflict between them and the three salarymen. He saw so many people from the Supervision Department surrounding Chen Liyan, and saw Sha Qingsi beating Ding Mian and Zhang Dehui with half a step to the king's level, but he still never They didn't say anything or take action to stop it, which is enough to explain a lot of problems.
"That's right!" After figuring out Qu Hongde's attitude, Yang Fan began to fan the flames and ignite the fire: "They themselves are not capable of hunting down the seventh-level monsters, but they are very active in taking credit and framing their own people. "
"You heard it just now, Mr. Qu. They are not here simply to save people. What they care about from the beginning to the end is the spiritual resources of the seventh-level demon plant!"
"Knowing that this junior has a seventh-level spiritual fruit on his body, he deliberately ignored his achievements in helping to hunt down two seventh-level demonic plants, ignored the testimony given by Ambassador Sha on behalf of this junior, and actually wanted to arrest him directly. This is simply... Lawless!”
"The governor's office invites such a selfish person who confuses right and wrong as a salary. It is like throwing three mouse droppings into a pot of good soup. It makes the image of the entire northwest governor's office sour and smelly. It's really It’s not worth the loss!”
Hearing Yang Fan's metaphor for Ding Mian and the others, Qu Hongde couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle: "I know what my little friend is thinking, so don't worry. Although I don't like to kill, but for this kind of scum of the human race, I don’t have the habit of being lenient at all.”
"As for the three of them, you can do whatever you want to do with them. I just pretend that I didn't see them at all and won't interfere."
"However," Qu Hongde suddenly turned to look at Yang Fan, "the method you used to deal with Su Li was a bit too crude, and in the end it was not on the table. Moreover, Su Li is just a small person. Although he made mistakes, he was not guilty. Death, there is really no need to force him into a situation where his reputation is ruined.”
"How about you give me some face and give him a chance to change his ways?"
Yang Fan was stunned. This was the second time Qu Hongde had spoken for Su Li. Could it be that Su Li had some background that he didn't know about
"Since Mr. Qu has spoken, this junior should obey." Yang Fan nodded in agreement, and then asked Qu Hongde in a deep voice: "I wonder what the relationship between Captain Su Li and senior is?"
Qu Hongde's expression was a bit shocking, but he did not hide it and said softly: "To be honest with you, this Su Li's great-grandfather had some friendship with me back then. After all, he is my great-grandson."
Yang Fan was shocked.
Damn it!
Su Lidu is in his nineties, almost a hundred years old, but he is still the great-grandson of Qu Hongde. So how old is this old man Qu this year
When he was hypnotizing Su Li just now, Yang Fan also gave him a preliminary appraisal, and he knew Su Li's specific age very well.
That's why he was so shocked now. He couldn't hold it back and cast a primary appraisal technique on Qu Hongde.
Name: Qu Hongde
age:? ?
height:? ?
Qi and blood strength:? ?
…
Yang Fan looked confused, because everything was full of question marks. Except for Qu Hongde's name, not even a single piece of useful information could be identified.
Is it because their cultivation levels are too different
"Don't be surprised." Seeing the shocked look on Yang Fan's face, Qu Hongde had long been accustomed to it and said, "Although I often say that I am only two hundred and thirty years old, even if I can't make a breakthrough, I still have at least seventy years left to live. In fact, it was just an excuse to scare some people with evil intentions."
"Now that I have successfully advanced to the realm of kings, there is no need to hide anything anymore. In fact, I am already 280 years old this year. It is very common to have a great-grandson of Su Li's age."
Yang Fan opened his mouth unconsciously.
Two hundred and eighty years old!
Apart from saying something awesome and shouting 666, Yang Fan didn't want to do anything.
Although it is said that Wu Zong's lifespan is about 300 years old, and Wu Wang's is even more impressive, about 600 years old, it is only a total of 138 years since the first spiritual wave broke out.
It is absolutely impossible for humans to break through to Wuzong with the help of spiritual power to exceed this value.
Based on such a detailed calculation, wouldn't this old man have been one hundred and forty-two years old when the first spiritual wave broke out? !
One hundred and forty-two years old. Even an innate-level martial arts expert at that time would hardly be able to live for such a long time, right
For a time, Yang Fan's admiration and admiration for this old gentleman was like a torrential river, stretching endlessly.
No wonder Qu Hongde was already half a king eighty years ago. Even before his spiritual power had recovered, he could live to be one hundred and forty-two years old with his advanced cultivation and talent in martial arts. How can the qualifications be comparable to those of ordinary people
This is exactly like a dragon trapped in shallow water by the poison of a python. Now that the dragon emerges from the shallow water and rides on the wind, its future achievements will surely be limitless!
Geniuses, young and old.
Especially after reaching the realm of Wuzong and even King Wu, the longevity of human beings has been greatly improved, and the shackles of death have been infinitely magnified and postponed, leaving humans longer time to practice and improve. An old man who is one hundred or two hundred years old seems to be just He is the leader of this era!
boom!
boom!
At this time, the battle below was coming to an end. Sha Qingsi had been paying attention to Yang Fan's situation. When she saw Qu Hongde suddenly appearing next to Yang Fan, she no longer had the intention to fight with Ding Mian. Go down.
Knowing the good old Qu Hongde's temperament, she was afraid that he would suddenly plead for Ding Mian and the others. Sha Qingsi's eyes flashed with a stern look, and she directly used the violent rules she had just realized, raised her palms, and quickly rushed towards Ding Mian and the others. Zhang Dehui and Zhang Dehui patted their lower dantian.
The two palms came into contact with their lower abdomens, and the double attack was triggered instantly, smashing the Dantian Qi sea of Ding and Zhang to pieces. The entire lower abdomen was penetrated by the force of the palms, forming a palm-shaped hole, and blood flowed freely. spray.
"Ah!" "Ah!"
"Sha Qingsi, how dare you do such a cruel thing to me?! My colleagues in the Ministry of Pensions will never let you go!"
The two of them exhausted all their strength, lying on the ground clutching their bellies and crying out. Until now, they still can't believe that Sha Qingsi dared to destroy their cultivation.
Seeing this, Qu Hongde raised his eyebrows, shook his head slightly, and said nothing more.
Yang Fan was startled, because he discovered that Sha Qingsi's violent rules were actually controllable. It seemed that she could double her attack at any time if she wanted to, which was incredible!
This should be the difference between kings and ordinary masters. Their understanding and application of the rules of various avenues have reached a level beyond what ordinary people can imagine.
After destroying Ding and Mian, Sha Qingsi kicked them under the pine tree where Yang Fan was, then turned around and rushed towards Chen Liyan, who was being beaten by the supervisory envoys.
"No! You can't do this to me! I am a stipend invited by the governor's mansion and a guest of the city lord's mansion. You can't destroy my cultivation!"
In the midst of Chen Liyan's roar of infinite fear and reluctance, Sha Qingsi did not hesitate and raised her foot. When she kicked Chen Liyan under the pine tree where Yang Fan was, she also blasted his Dantian into pieces without leaving any trace of mercy. .
At this point, the three extremely arrogant pensioners sent by the Ministry of Pensions have all turned into useless people, crouching at Yang Fan's feet, trembling.
