This place is not like the deep North Desert, where few practitioners go. In addition, the Wu Zhou Academy has a team of three to five people, so the practitioners who are targeted cannot escape even if they want to. However, the area is already considered the outskirts of the North Desert, and many practitioners come here to take risks. The practitioners who can come to this area are all strong. Facing a strong man, they will naturally not sit and wait for death.
"I am a disciple of Wu Zhou Academy. How could I kill people for treasures?" said the middle-aged man with a gloomy face.
Hearing this, a look of disdain flashed across Yang Qi's face. The practitioners of Wu Zhou Academy would not kill people for treasures. Not to mention the practitioners of Wu Zhou Academy, even the Emperor Wu would kill people for treasures, it just depends on whether the treasure is enough to make the Emperor Wu excited!
If there is a treasure that Emperor Wu is interested in, he will naturally take action!
It is a joke that a Wu Zhou Academy is ruled by only one powerful warrior at the Martial King level and yet he dares to say such words.
"What evidence do you have to prove that you are a disciple of Wu Zhou Academy?" Yang Qi looked at the middle-aged man coldly.
"I have been ordered to search for the remnants of the Corpse God Cult. You'd better cooperate with me, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." The middle-aged man's face darkened and he shouted coldly.
He was a five-star Martial Master, so how could he bow his head to prove anything to a two-star Martial Master? The aura of a five-star Martial Master directly pressed towards Yang Qi, as if he would take Yang Qi down directly if Yang Qi did not cooperate.
“You Wu Zhou Academy should not go too far. The disciples of my Ji Tian Palace are no pushovers either.” Yang Qi smiled coldly and directly brought out the super power in the Great Zhou Empire, the Ji Tian Palace.
Jitian Palace!
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly when he heard this. The Jitian Palace is one of the nine super powers of the Great Zhou Empire. They act very low-key, but the disciples inside are extremely united. If anyone dares to provoke their disciples, even if they are practitioners from the Wu Zhou Academy, the other party will demand an explanation.
The middle-aged man had met several martial masters before, but none of them had great backgrounds, and the best of them were only from first-rate forces, so the middle-aged man was naturally not afraid. But for Jitian Palace, even the middle-aged man had to think about it. If he offended them, he would be in endless trouble. He was not Gu Xingnan, who had the support of the martial king master behind him!
Seeing the middle-aged man hesitating, Yang Qi was delighted. The reason why he pulled out the Jitian Palace was because he knew that the practitioners of the Jitian Palace were extremely protective of their people. Even if the other party was a practitioner from the Wu Zhou Academy, he would probably have to think twice.
Speaking of which, this was also due to the trip to the Purple Emperor Secret Realm, which allowed him to understand the twenty-seven super forces in the Zichen Continent. Among these super forces, the Jitian Palace was the most protective sect, and it even had a conflict with the Holy Empire's Church of Light because of the grievances in the Purple Emperor Secret Realm.
You must know that regarding the grudge in the Purple Emperor Secret Realm, all the major superpowers agreed not to bring it back to the Zichen Continent, at least on the surface. However, the Jitian Palace directly approached the Church of Light with the grudge in the Purple Emperor Secret Realm, and in the end, it was the three major empires that stepped in to settle the matter.
Because of this, all the major superpowers know that the Ji Tian Palace protects its people, so there is no need and they are unwilling to provoke their people.
"So you are my junior brother from Jitian Palace." The middle-aged man smiled and continued, "This matter was ordered by the senior leaders of the academy. I believe that you also know about the Blood Evil Sect, so please cooperate with me."
Because they belong to the same empire, the major superpowers would call each other brothers to show their closeness. The middle-aged man even directly brought up the matter of the Blood Demon Sect. Although ordinary practitioners did not know what was going on, the strong men from the major superpowers knew the whole story.
Yang Qi sighed in his heart. Although he knew it was not so easy to fool the man, he still had a glimmer of hope in his heart. Now that he saw the middle-aged man was so persistent, he knew that he could no longer hide his identity.
"Why haven't I received any news about the Blood Evil Cult?" Yang Qi said coldly.
There was naturally no way to search for the remnants of the Corpse God Cult. The middle-aged man could not produce any evidence. His face darkened and he said coldly, "This matter is a secret of our Wuzhou Academy. Junior brother, you don't need to ask about it. Please cooperate with me."
“Since senior brother is determined to search, I naturally dare not disobey. But senior brother had better think it over carefully.” Yang Qi looked deeply at the middle-aged man and sneered.
"I'm sorry!"
The middle-aged man gritted his teeth. He had to decide whether to offend the practitioners of Jitian Palace or Gu Xingnan. Obviously, the middle-aged man finally chose to offend the practitioners of Jitian Palace. After all, he was also a disciple of Wuzhou Academy. Even if Jitian Palace wanted to cause trouble for him, Wuzhou Academy would not be able to avoid it. But Gu Xingnan was a disciple of Wuzhou Academy, and his status was higher than his. If he wanted to cause trouble for him, it would only take a word!
Wow~
The middle-aged man's body flashed and stopped within a hundred feet away from Yang Qi. A stream of Yuanli directly enveloped Yang Qi. Although Yang Qi might be a cultivator from the Jitian Palace, the middle-aged man obviously did not completely relax his vigilance.
“We can only try our best.”
Feeling the incoming energy, Yang Qi's eyes focused, and the energy in his body began to circulate quietly.
The middle-aged man was much stronger than Fan Tong. With his current strength, at such a long distance, even if he activated the second level of the pseudo-Daoist soldier, it was unlikely that he could seriously injure the opponent. But at this moment, Yang Qi could only try his best, otherwise his identity would be exposed, and he would face more Wuzhou Academy disciples to besiege him, and then his hope of escaping would be even lower.
Boom! Boom!
At this moment, from the depths of the distant mountains and forests, bursts of earth-shaking noises were heard, and then the ground beneath the feet began to shake violently, as if the heavens and the earth were shaking.
"What's going on?"
The middle-aged man did not bother to check on Yang Qi. He looked at the deep forest behind him, his expression becoming extremely solemn. This was the first time he had encountered such a huge commotion.
"If it's not a fight between strong men, then there is only one possibility." Yang Qi looked into the depths of the forest and his pupils shrank suddenly.
"What's possible?" the middle-aged man asked subconsciously.
"Beast Tide!"
Yang Qi's face darkened and he uttered two words coldly.
Beast tide
The middle-aged man's face changed, he was certainly no stranger to the beast tide. In fact, this kind of thing occasionally happened in the Northern Wilderness, and there were related records in the classics of the Wu Zhou Academy.
"Why is there a beast tide?" the middle-aged man said with a grim expression.
“It’s all because of your Wu Zhou Academy’s unscrupulous search that caused the monsters to panic, thus triggering a beast tide.” Yang Qi smiled coldly. In fact, he had already discovered signs of a beast tide, but he didn’t expect it to break out so quickly.
"This is trouble." The middle-aged man's face suddenly turned pale. When the beast tide broke out, who knew how many practitioners would be killed or injured. Many practitioners knew about their search of the Wu Zhou Academy. Once it was spread out, Wu Zhou Academy would be the key to triggering the beast tide. Even Gu Xingnan could not bear the consequences!
Boom! Boom!
The loud noise in the distance was getting closer and closer, and the ground beneath my feet was shaking more and more violently. The beast tide was approaching at a rapid speed, and the momentum was getting louder and louder. (To be continued)
