Shuanma Ridge is located at the junction of Wei and Chu, stretching for more than a hundred miles. It is said that a general led his troops through this place and tied his horse to rest here, hence the name.
Shuanma Ridge has a weak aura, few trees and few people.
A ray of golden light flew out from the depths of Shuanma Ridge and flew straight to the distant sky.
"Swish swish!"
A sharp sound broke through the air, and several rays of green light flew out from the ground, striking the golden light like lightning.
One of the green lights hit the golden light, and the golden light let out a scream and stagnated.
The golden light was a dazzling golden mask, with a man and a woman inside. The man was Lin Xiao, and the woman was his wife Liu Meng.
There was a blood hole in Liu Meng's left shoulder. The blood was flowing and she looked pale.
Lin Xiao hurriedly took out a green talisman and patted Liu Meng's wound. The green light flashed and the blood stopped flowing out.
"Damn it, this is actually the stronghold of a certain cultivating family."
Lin Xiao cursed, pinched his spell, and the golden light shield sped up.
Lin Xiao is a casual cultivator and does not have any property. When it comes to craftsmanship, it is killing monsters and killing people. The couple hunted monsters and had bad luck. They accidentally encountered two second-level monsters. Although they escaped by chance, Lin Xiao also He was seriously injured and it took him more than two years to recover, and he also spent all his savings.
In order to save enough spiritual stones to help his wife build the foundation as soon as possible, he had a wrong idea, and he happened to find several Qi refining monks who were spending money lavishly.
They followed each other all the way to Shuanma Ridge. As soon as they carried out their murderous attack, two foundation-building monks rushed out.
Lin Xiao never expected that there would be two of the foundation-building monks secretly cultivating in Shuanma Ridge. He didn't have time to think too much and took his wife to escape. He never thought that his wife was injured by the arrow fired by the other party.
A blue light flew out from Shuanma Ridge and chased Lin Xiao and his wife, much faster than Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao glanced at the pursuers behind him and frowned.
He has no flying magic weapon in his hand, only one attacking magic weapon. If they fight, they will definitely not be the opponent of each other.
"Husband, I'm stopping them. You leave quickly. If we delay, none of us will be able to leave."
Liu Meng gritted his teeth and urged.
"No, madam, your cultivation level is too low and you are injured. I will hold them back and you run away for your life."
Lin Xiao shook his head and refused. When he was seriously injured, his wife never left her to take care of him. In order to cure him, Liu Meng took out all his belongings and bought healing pills. How could he bear to let his wife cut off his wife and escape alone.
"Brother Xiao, being able to be husband and wife with you is the happiest thing in my life. Don't force me. Leave quickly. I don't want you to die in front of me. If you can survive, don't avenge me and pick up Yu'er. Come back to me, even though she has no spiritual roots, she is still our child."
Lin Xiao looked hesitant. Before he could react, Liu Meng sacrificed a leaf weapon, jumped up, turned around and pounced on the pursuers behind him.
Lin Xiao's eyes suddenly turned red. Liu Meng's move would definitely lead to his death. He no longer hesitated, pinched the magic weapon, and the golden light shield sped up.
Seeing Liu Meng rushing toward him, the two foundation-building monks took out their magical weapons and slashed at Liu Meng without saying a word.
Liu Meng glanced at Lin Xiao who was walking away, with a smile on his face. He took out two red beads and threw them to the two foundation-building monks.
"Boom!"
Two huge explosions sounded, and two red beads exploded and turned into billowing flames, drowning the figures of the two foundation-building monks.
With a scream, Liu Meng was also killed by two flying swords, and his body fell from the sky.
Soon, the flames dissipated, and the two foundation-building monks continued to chase Lin Xiao.
…
Wangjiabao, martial arts arena.
Wang Yaolong sat on the high platform and watched the competition between his tribesmen. Wang Changping sat aside.
Dozens of tribesmen gathered at the martial arts arena, including old women and children.
At this time, Wang Changsheng had been in seclusion for seven years, which happened to be the ten-year competition.
There are ten arenas, and in each arena there are competitions between clan members.
Wang Qingqing and Wang Qingzhi both participated in the competition. Both Wang Qingqing and Wang Qingzhi have reached the ninth level of Qi Refining. They are almost thirty years old.
Wang Qingzhi had little fighting experience and was defeated in the second level. Wang Qingqing relied on the first-order high-grade puppet beast to pass three levels in a row.
Wang Qingjun's performance was the most eye-catching. He was proficient in fire spells. He passed three levels in a row and destroyed all the puppet beasts he faced.
At this moment, Wang Changtai walked quickly to Wang Yaolong and whispered a few words.
"Ming Zhan, Chang Yi, the competition will be hosted by your father and son. I have something urgent to deal with, so I will take the first step."
Wang Yaolong left without saying a word and quickly left.
Wang Mingzhan and Wang Changyi looked at each other, wondering what big thing had happened that made Wang Yaolong so panicked.
Not long after, Wang Yaolong came to the reception room, and Lin Xiao had been waiting for a long time.
Lin Xiao's left arm was hanging in the air, his body was dripping with blood, and his face was pale.
"Senior Lin, I am Wang Yaolong, the head of the Wang family. I heard from my son Changtai that you discovered a secret treasure?"
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and told what happened.
Although he escaped, his left hand was also chopped off. The opponent pursued him all the way to Qinglianfang City. He was worried about the Wang family and did not continue the pursuit.
In order to avenge his wife, he could only ask the Wang family for help.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, strictly speaking, Shuanma Ridge belongs to Ningzhou. If there are any secrets in Shuanma Ridge, they all belong to your Wang family. They are occupying your things. My wife also died in their hands. If you If the Wang family wants to deal with them, I am willing to take the lead."
When Lin Xiao said the last words, his face was filled with sadness and anger.
After listening to Lin Xiao's statement, Wang Yaolong fell into deep thought.
According to Lin Xiao, there were two foundation-building monks chasing him. The spiritual energy in Shuanma Ridge was weak, so how could there be two foundation-building monks hiding there
Shuanmaling is located at the junction of the two countries. It can be said to belong to either Wei or Chu.
If a cultivating sect occupied the place, Lin Xiao would not be able to escape. It was probably a cultivating family, and there must be some kind of cultivating resources in Shuanma Ridge. Otherwise, the other party would not kill Lin Xiao and his wife to silence them. Of course, there is another possibility, Lin Xiao He was forced to set up a trap for the Wang family to infiltrate.
If the Wang family sent a large number of experts to Shuan Maling, the Wang family fort would be empty and there would be fewer people sent, so they might be ambushed.
"Senior Lin, you have worked hard, so be it! You go down to rest first, and we will discuss it internally. If anything happens, I will come back to you. Changtai, send Senior Lin down to rest."
Lin Xiao nodded and left with Wang Changtai.
Wang Yaolong sent someone to call Wang Changping and told him what happened.
Wang Changping was already at the third level of foundation building. When he returned to Wangjiabao this time, he asked Wang Qingqi to help him refine the second-level elixir.
Bailingmen has a second-level alchemist with rich experience in alchemy. If Wang Changping gathers the materials, he will send them back to the family and make alchemy for Wang Qingqi. If the refining fails, the family will subsidize Wang Changping with a sum of spiritual stones. If it succeeds, Wang Changping will give Wang Qingqi a fee.
The Wang family has always encouraged this kind of thing. What Wang Changping needs is a second-level low-grade elixir. Wang Qingqi can refine it, but the success rate is not high. As the number of refining times increases, Wang Qingqi's elixir refining level has improved, and the elixir-making rate has also increased. Now, Wang Changping goes home more often.
"Ninth brother and nine sister-in-law are practicing in seclusion. If they come out of seclusion, things will be much easier to handle. Changyue and Qingqi are on the second level of foundation building, but they have no fighting experience. The eighteenth brother is in Hongye Ridge. It takes more than a month to go back and forth. , As for Bago, he is based in Qingyuefang City, and it will take several months to travel there and back. I alone may not be the opponent's opponent."
Wang Changping said slowly, frowning.
