As he was a fellow disciple and was responsible for accepting bounty missions, the man naturally knew what Tong Shan and his group had been doing recently. In addition, since the other party had invited Yang Qi, a powerful warrior who could easily kill a peak Martial King, the man immediately guessed Tong Shan's purpose.
“Even if there is one more cultivator with the combat power of a half-step Martial Emperor, the hope of success is probably slim.” The man shook his head. The goals of Tong Shan and others are not ordinary. Even if there is one more cultivator with the combat power of a half-step Martial Emperor, it will not make much sense.
A practitioner with the combat power of a half-step martial emperor is absolutely invincible at the martial king level. There is not much significance in having one more such practitioner? Who is the demon that Tong Shan and others want to deal with
Yang Qi didn't know what the bounty mission of Tong Shan and others was. Under the leadership of Tong Shan, the two of them soon arrived at a private room in a restaurant near the branch school.
"Four peak martial kings!"
As soon as he entered the box, Yang Qi discovered that the four practitioners in the box were all at the peak of Martial King level. Moreover, any one of these four gave him the feeling that they were more terrifying than most of the peak Martial King demons he had killed.
"Four half-step Martial Emperors?"
Yang Qi's eyes focused. Those who can reach the peak of Martial King and possess the combat power of half a step into Martial Emperor are not simple characters. With so many strong people joining together, this bounty mission will definitely not be simple.
"But I don't know which demon's lair to attack?" Yang Qi said secretly in his heart.
Because they usually act alone, Yang Qi doesn't know much about the demons' lairs. However, with so many practitioners at the peak of Martial King level gathered together, it is obvious that what they are dealing with is not an ordinary demon's lair.
A man in fancy clothes looked at Yang Qi, and after a moment, he said, "Are you the Flame Sword King?"
"King Yanjian is just a title given to me by others." Yang Qi said calmly.
Although his real cultivation level was only at the late nine-star Martial King level, the number of peak Martial Kings who died at his hands exceeded double digits. Therefore, even when facing several peak Martial King practitioners in front of him, he still had enough confidence in his heart.
As soon as Yang Qi finished speaking, a handsome young man spoke up, "Yanjian King, you follow the path of fusion, and you have integrated three paths. Moreover, you are good at soul methods. It is estimated that the power of soul attack can barely reach the level of Martial Emperor."
"You guys have done a very thorough investigation." Yang Qi said with a calm smile.
The other party approached him and even directly invited him to join forces, so they must have done some investigation on him. Over the past few decades, Yang Qi has earned the title of Flame Sword King, and there are many practitioners who have seen his methods. It is not surprising that the other party knows his methods.
Tong Shan, who was standing by, heard this and quickly said, "Don't misunderstand, King Yan Jian. We are investigating you just to confirm whether you are qualified to join forces with us."
Yang Qi didn't have much doubt about this. After all, the other parties were all strong people at this level. Inviting other practitioners would definitely have certain requirements on strength.
"Since you have already investigated my strength, you can now tell me what bounty mission you want to complete by looking for me?" Yang Qi went straight to the point.
Upon hearing this, the handsome young man looked at Yang Qi and said, "Although your strength meets our requirements, you need to swear an oath of the Tao and promise not to leak the information of our bounty mission. Only then can we tell you the information of the bounty mission."
Take a martial arts oath
Yang Qi frowned slightly. Isn't it just to deal with a den of demons? There is nothing secret about the information of those dens. As long as you are strong enough, you can just kill them directly. Why do you have to make a martial arts oath
etc…
Yang Qi's eyes focused. There was indeed nothing secret about the lair of a Martial King-level demon. But what if the demon they were going to deal with was not a Martial King-level demon
Under normal circumstances, this group of people is definitely not a match for the Martial Emperor, but under special circumstances, they are not without a chance. If they are dealing with a Martial Emperor-level demon, then the information about this demon must be very critical, otherwise they are simply seeking death!
Thinking of this, Yang Qi was also shocked, and subconsciously asked, "Are you going to deal with a demon at the Martial Emperor level?"
"King Yanjian is indeed smart." Tong Shan smiled slightly but did not deny it. Obviously, they were going to deal with a demon at the Martial Emperor level!
After Tong Shan confirmed it, Yang Qi couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "With your strength, it's not that easy to deal with a demon at the level of Martial Emperor, right?"
"Don't worry about this, King Yanjian. Only if you take a martial arts oath can we share the information with you with confidence." The handsome young man said lightly.
Hearing the handsome young man's words, Yang Qi couldn't help but fall silent. He believed that he didn't have the strength to deal with a Martial Emperor-level demon. However, the handsome young man and others were also at the peak of Martial King level, but they dared to do so, so they must have something to rely on.
Tong Shan, who was standing by, saw Yang Qi fall silent and couldn't help but say, "Yan Jian Wang, you can listen to our intelligence before making a decision. It's just a martial arts oath and it won't have any effect on you."
"Okay, I can take the martial arts oath."
Yang Qi thought for a moment and made a decision.
Although he didn't know which demon Tong Shan and the others were going to deal with, it wouldn't hurt for him to just listen to the information and then decide whether to join. If he could really fight a Martial Emperor, it would undoubtedly be an excellent opportunity for him to hone his skills.
Yang Qi immediately made a martial arts oath, promising not to leak the information about the bounty mission that Tong Shan and his team would tell him next.
"Can you tell me now?" Yang Qi looked at the handsome young man and said.
The handsome young man nodded, and then said in a deep voice, "This time we are going to deal with the Blood Demon Ancestor."
"What!"
Yang Qi's face suddenly changed. The Blood Demon Ancestor was a peak one-star Martial Emperor. He was not a cultivator who had just entered the Martial Emperor level, but a demon who had been famous for many years. Originally, Yang Qi thought that the other party was going to deal with a demon who had just entered the Martial Emperor level, but he did not expect that the other party was so bold as to deal with the Blood Demon Ancestor who was at the peak of the one-star Martial Emperor level.
The gap between each small realm of the Martial Emperor level is extremely huge. A cultivator at the peak of the one-star Martial Emperor can easily kill a cultivator at the early stage of the one-star Martial Emperor. With the strength of these people, facing a cultivator at the peak of the one-star Martial Emperor, they might not even be able to survive for two breaths.
"We are certainly not able to deal with the Blood Demon Ancestor in his prime." Tong Shan looked at Yang Qi and continued, "According to our intelligence, the Blood Demon Ancestor was seriously injured and could only exert the strength of an early one-star Martial Emperor at best, or even weaker. Otherwise, we would not dare to choose to deal with him. Facing the Blood Demon Ancestor in his prime, we are not enough for him to kill for fun." (To be continued)
