Chapter 169 You Dare to Assassinate Me
"Brother, that's the Cui family's call signal. Are we really not going to join them?" Xiao Qing pointed to the sky in front of him on the right.
There was a shadow of a huge hammer emitting yellow light hanging in the sky, which lasted for a long time.
The two ends of the hammer were shaped like cylinders and looked particularly heavy.
“The eighteen families holding the Pan Chi Order are the real main force in hunting down the Hua Chi, which means they are destined to be the focus of everyone’s attention.
If we go to join the Cui family, it means we will be watched all the time, which is not as good as hiding in the dark and having a leisurely time!" Qin Ziling said with a comfortable smile.
"Brother, do you want to reap the benefits while you are still a fisherman?" Xiao Qing looked at Qin Ziling's comfortable expression. Although she knew that he liked to hide in the dark and plot against people, she was still speechless.
"Yes, isn't this great?" Qin Ziling nodded as a matter of course.
“But even though this place is not as vast as imagined, the distance between the two ends is probably at least eighty or ninety miles.
We are hiding here. Even with our excellent eyesight and keen senses, we can only detect movement at a distance of four or five miles at most.
Unless they happen to be hunting Huachi near us, how can we have the chance to reap the benefits?
Besides, with our strength, if we want to reap the benefits, we have to fight both sides to a draw, and then we have to kill them all, which is too difficult.
But if not, once they leave here and the news gets back, do you think that with the strength of the Xiao family, they can withstand the revenge of those big forces?
If we cooperate with the Cui family, there will be no such problems. Together with the Cui family, we not only have the power to directly suppress Hua Chi, but also if we really have to compete with other forces, the Cui family will be in front, and it will not be the Xiao family's turn. "Xiao Qing said.
"Don't worry, I have a good plan!" Qin Ziling said, touching the fake beard on his chin.
Seeing this, Xiao Qing felt like biting Qin Ziling out of hatred, but in the end she rolled her eyes at him and said, "Big brother just likes to keep us in suspense!"
Qin Ziling smiled proudly, then pointed to the front right. In that direction, a golden sword light signal rose next to the signal of the Cui family's big hammer.
"It seems that the Cui family and the Golden Sword Sect have joined forces!" Xiao Qing said in a deep voice.
“Hua Chi is a fourth-grade intermediate-level exotic beast. Even though everyone who holds the Pan Chi Order has a solid foundation and is close to the middle-stage of the Bone Refining Realm or the middle-stage of the True Essence Realm, and has at least a dozen strong men around him, it is still not enough for a single family to hunt Hua Chi.
So it is not difficult to imagine that, in addition to the Cui family and the Golden Sword Sect, other forces will inevitably join forces in twos and threes." Qin Ziling said.
"It will be even more difficult for us to reap the benefits this way!" Xiao Qing said.
"It's just more difficult, not without chance!" Qin Ziling said calmly.
"Well, we are here to try our luck this time. If there is a chance, that would be great. If not, there is no need to force it." Xiao Qing glanced at Qin Ziling and nodded calmly.
Qin Ziling smiled noncommittally, then said: "Pay attention to your surroundings. There is plenty of water spirit energy here. It would be a pity to waste it. I will meditate and refine my spirit energy first."
After saying that, Qin Ziling really sat cross-legged on the ground and closed his eyes.
Xiao Qing looked at Qin Ziling speechlessly, but still jumped onto a big tree as he said and tried his best to look around .
When Xiao Qing jumped onto a big tree and tried his best to look into the distance, he did not notice the faint smile on Qin Ziling's lips.
Four souls invisible to the naked eye escaped from Qin Ziling's eyebrows and flew in four directions respectively.
After entering the realm of distraction, Qin Ziling's soul can be divided into seventy-seven forty-nine souls.
Each of these forty-nine spirits has the strength of an early stage of driving away objects.
When every seven are combined into one, one will have the power to drive away objects in the late stage.
Each spirit can be twenty miles away from the main body. In addition, the spirit's sensitivity is sharp and its "vision" is not affected by light, so the detection range can be extended to ten miles.
This also means that the farthest range that a soul can detect is thirty miles away from the main body. If a soul is released from the front, back, left and right of the body, this means that with the physical body as the center, the range that the soul can detect reaches sixty miles in diameter.
With the four divine souls sent out, it can be said that they can almost cover seventy to eighty percent of the dragon vein world.
Of course this is all theoretical.
It is impossible for the soul to cover such a large area and be able to perceive any movement or change of things big or small.
All we can say is that within this range, if any big movement occurs, it will inevitably attract the attention of the soul.
This was enough for Qin Ziling.
"Hehe, I am a bit like a scholar who knows everything about the world without leaving home.
No, it should be "planning in the tent and winning the battle thousands of miles away", which sounds more impressive!"
Qin Ziling was secretly proud of himself, and then he really entered into a state of meditation, and at the same time, he started to practice "The Evergreen Green Wood Technique" and "The Black Snake Mysterious Water Technique".
The snake is a little dragon.
This is the place of dragon veins. Qin Ziling's intuition tells him that practicing here will be of great benefit.
Sure enough, as soon as Qin Ziling started practicing the technique, he could clearly feel that his water-based true energy was constantly improving and growing stronger. Water creates wood, and this in turn drives the wood-based true energy to improve and grow stronger.
Standing on a tree branch and inspecting the surroundings, Xiao Qing felt a breath between heaven and earth flowing towards Qin Ziling. She turned her head to look at him, and saw that he was sitting with his eyes closed, his eyes on his nose and his nose on his heart, breathing slowly. Thinking of the purpose of their visit this time, she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
But soon, Xiao Qing's eyes changed when he looked at Qin Ziling, and his expression became very solemn.
"No wonder my brother is making such rapid progress. Just based on this state of mind, I am far behind him!"
Half a day passed quickly.
But Qin Ziling still didn't show any intention of stopping practicing.
At first, Xiao Qing waited patiently and observed the surroundings diligently.
During this period, he vaguely saw a few fights, but the noise was not big. It was obviously not a fight between big forces such as the Cui family, nor was anyone hunting and killing Hua Chi, so Qin Ziling was not alarmed.
But as time passed, Xiao Qing estimated that half a day had passed, but Qin Ziling still didn't seem to stop practicing at all.
Xiao Qing gradually became impatient.
After all, he paid the price of two second-grade exotic beasts to get in, and also exposed his identity for it!
Is it just to sit on this mountain for three days?
At least you should move around a bit, maybe you can find some rare treasures.
After all, this is where Chilong lived. Even though it has been plundered for a long time, who can guarantee that nothing has been left behind?
In fact, many martial artists and Qi-refining masters spend a huge amount of money to come here, not to hunt down the Hua Chi, but with the hope of picking up a bargain and taking a gamble.
But Qin Ziling didn't move, and Xiao Qing didn't dare to disturb him.
She still admires and respects this elder brother from the bottom of her heart.
Another two hours passed.
It should be late at night outside, but there is no distinction between day and night here.
Suddenly, Qin Ziling opened his eyes, then slowly stood up and did a chest stretching exercise.
"Xiao Qing, it's time for the fishermen to go out!" Qin Ziling said lightly to Xiao Qing who jumped down from the treetop.
After saying that, before Xiao Qing could come to her senses, Qin Ziling had already jumped up and flew towards the bottom of the mountain.
Seeing this, Xiao Qing hurriedly chased after him.
Both of them are powerful people. When they run, they are as fast as antelopes and cheetahs.
During the journey, Xiao Qing wanted to ask several times, but finally chose to remain silent.
She has always been a smart woman.
In a short while, the two had moved more than 20 miles away from their original hiding place.
Qin Ziling suddenly slowed down.
Xiao Qing then slowed down his pace and looked at the valley a few miles away, his eyes full of shock and disbelief.
At this moment, there were bursts of fierce fighting sounds coming from the valley, and a strong aura of power was rising from the valley into the sky.
"Pang Tianpeng and his men are surrounding and killing a Huachi. Find a place to hide and don't worry about me!" Qin Ziling said in a low voice, and then his whole body gradually became blurred in this dim world, as if he had merged into this world.
"Okay!" Xiao Qing said this word decisively towards the figure that was becoming increasingly blurry and was about to merge into the surrounding trees and plants. Then he restrained his breath and sneaked silently into the valley.
In the valley, a stream flows slowly.
There are lush trees and green grass on both sides.
It was originally a quiet place in a deep valley.
But at this time the valley was in a mess.
Rocks flew everywhere, trees were broken in half or even uprooted.
There were eight people lying on the ground in a disorderly manner. Some had already died, while others were seriously injured and were rolling on the ground wailing.
But no one had time to take care of them.
Because at this time everyone was besieging a Chi that was surrounded by clouds and mist, had scars all over its body, had a pair of big red lantern-like eyes, and was rushing around like a madman.
The tail of the Chi was carrying clouds and mist, whistling across the void and slamming hard on the head of a Blood Wolf Guard.
"Bang!" The Blood Wolf Guard's head exploded like a watermelon in an instant.
But the remaining strength of Hua Chi's tail was not reduced, and with a "whoosh" sound, it swept towards Qin Gen fiercely again.
Qin Gen held a ghost-head knife in both hands and chopped it fiercely.
"Dang!" The sound of metal clashing suddenly rang out in the valley, and sparks flew everywhere.
Qin Gen, who looked tall and strong, with the power of Hua Jin, flew backwards, his sleeves burst open, revealing a pair of bloody arms.
With just this one blow, several blood vessels in his arm muscles burst again.
Almost at the same time, one of Hua Chi's claws fell towards Pang Tianpeng.
Pang Tianpeng used a long sword.
Seeing Hua Chi's claws falling, his pupils suddenly shrank, and all the energy and blood in his body rushed to the arms holding the knife like a tsunami.
His arms suddenly seemed to be coated with a layer of brass, shining brightly in the dim valley.
The long sword also suddenly burst out with dazzling light, and a phantom of flames spewed out from the blade.
"Dang!" The sound of metal colliding rang out again.
Balls of flames exploded like gorgeous fireworks.
Pang Tianpeng's knuckles were cracked and blood was slowly flowing out. His footsteps slid backwards on the ground like the land plowed by a cow.
Hua Chi's claws trembled and retracted, but no wounds were left.
Just as Hua Chi's claws retracted, a tall and thin figure jumped up from a height, holding a nine-hole large ring knife in his hand.
It was the great bone-refining martial artist Mao Zongjun who came from Jinlie Sect this time.
Mao Zongjun was in the air, the nine rings of the nine-hole big ring knife flashed with golden light, making a shocking sound, and the blade even spewed out several meters long flames, whistling and chopping towards the neck of Hua Chi.
The knife chopped down with such force and speed that the air seemed to be split apart, and two waves of air rolled up to both sides.
Hua Chi seemed to know the power of the knife. It shook its head and tail, and rolled up clouds of mist. Its entire body actually flew more than ten meters into the air. Its front paws were raised high, and then it slammed down hard on the nine-hole ring knife that was chopping at it.
"Bang! Bang!" Two more loud noises.
The huge body of Hua Chi tumbled in the air, the clouds and mist rolled, and then fell into the stream.
Mao Zongjun somersaulted several times in the air, and then with a loud "bang", his legs fell to the ground.
The earth cracked and mud splashed everywhere.
"This evil beast is more powerful than we thought. We have already used so many lives to deplete its strength, yet it is still so ferocious!" Mao Zongjun said to Pang Tianpeng beside him, breathing heavily.
"As long as we can kill this Chi, the death of some people doesn't matter." Pang Tianpeng swept his eyes mercilessly over the people on the ground and said in a cold voice.
As he spoke, he touched his arms.
This is the hardest part of his body, but because of excessive force, the muscles were cracked and a lot of blood flowed.
"Keep killing!" Pang Tianpeng shouted sternly, his facial muscles twisted and distorted as he touched the injured part.
The remaining four Blood Wolf Guards rushed forward without hesitation.
They were originally the death squads trained by the Pang family!
If Pang Tianpeng wants them to die, they must die!
But Qin Gen, Sui Wufang and other disciples of Jin Lie Sect were a little hesitant.
Hua Chi is too powerful, and three of their fellow disciples have died.
"What? Don't you understand what Junior Brother Pang said?" Mao Zongjun picked up the nine-hole large ring knife and swept his fellow disciples with a cold gaze like a knife.
Pang Tianpeng also raised his eyes and glanced at them coldly.
Qin Gen and the others felt a tremor in their hearts, and finally roared angrily and rushed towards Hua Chi again.
They are different from Pang Tianpeng and Mao Zongjun. They do not have a strong family background and their cultivation is far behind.
If you dare to disobey their orders, you will surely die.
If they obey orders and charge forward now, they still have a hope of survival. If they are luckier, they might be able to get some of the blood and flesh of the Chi, and then they will have a chance to reach the Bone Refining Realm!
The brutal fighting continued.
Pang Tianpeng and Mao Zongjun would only launch a thunderous attack at the critical moment, when Hua Chi showed a flaw, and the rest of the time they would just watch the battle from the sidelines.
There were a total of eighteen powerful bone-refining martial artists participating in the hunt this time.
Even if all the people they brought with them died, they had to prioritize ensuring that they were not seriously injured.
Otherwise, even if they hunted down the Huachi, they probably wouldn't have the chance to enjoy it.
Time is passing slowly.
"Kill!" Mao Zongjun roared, and chopped down with his knife fiercely, finally landing firmly on Huachi's neck, and blood gushed out along the blade.
"Kill!" Almost at the same time, Pang Tianpeng slashed heavily on Hua Chi's back with a knife.
At this time, the nine Blood Wolf Guards brought by Pang Tianpeng were all killed or injured.
There are only three Huajin martial artists left in Jinlie Sect.
Behind a large rock, Xiao Qing saw that Pang Tianpeng and others were on the verge of success, and his eyes flashed with brilliance.
If she and Qin Ziling wanted to reap the benefits, now was the best opportunity.
But Xiao Qing did not dare to act rashly.
Because although Mao Zongjun and Pang Tianpeng had consumed a lot of energy and even suffered serious injuries, they still retained a lot of strength and had three Huajin martial artists around them.
Even if she and Qin Ziling join forces, their chances of winning are slim.
Even if they succeed by chance, they won't be able to kill them.
Once they escape, what awaits them and the Xiao family is not only the revenge of the Pang family, but also the wrath of the Jin Lie family.
Jinlie Sect is one of the three major martial arts sects in Xiyun Province. The small Xiao family definitely cannot afford it.
"Go and kill Pang Tianpeng!" Just when Xiao Qing was secretly regretting and not daring to take action, Qin Ziling's voice suddenly rang in his ears.
Xiao Qing's delicate body trembled slightly, but in just an instant a look of determination appeared in her eyes. She tapped the ground with her feet, and with a few leaps, she flew over a distance of nearly a hundred meters.
Finally, he pushed his feet hard against a rock.
The rocks exploded violently, sending debris flying everywhere.
Xiao Qing soared into the sky holding the Qinglong Spear that had been assembled long ago.
The person was in the air, her body as agile as a green dragon, and the spear in her hand was like an angry dragon, stabbing at the back of Pang Tianpeng who was closest to her.
The tip of the gun pierced through the void, making a sharp friction sound and surging air waves wherever it passed.
The green light of the spear flickered, and was particularly dazzling in the dim valley, revealing an infinitely sharp and cold murderous aura.
Pang Tianpeng felt an astonishing sharp force coming from behind him, his face changed slightly, but returned to normal in an instant. He turned the long sword in his hand around and chopped it back fiercely.
"when!"
Pang Tianpeng was indeed a great bone-refining martial artist who possessed the strengths of both families. He chopped back with his hand and hit the spear head right on top.
Sparks are flying.
Xiao Qing felt a terrifying force as hot as fire passing through his body along the gun. This terrifying force also carried a hint of extremely sharp force.
This force seemed small, but it stabbed Xiao Qing like a sharp needle, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
Bone strength!
Xiao Qing's pupils shrank slightly, and all the energy in his body rushed to his arms like a surging river. The huge waves hit him one after another, instantly neutralizing the lethality brought by Pang Tianpeng's backhand knife.
His body paused slightly in the air, and then his legs stomped quickly in the air, as if stepping on air. While in the air, he continued to swing the gun and stab Pang Tianpeng.
Although Pang Tianpeng hit the spear head with his backhanded knife just now, his whole body seemed to be hit by a huge wave and he slid back several meters. Then he turned around suddenly and looked at the Qinglong Spear that was swinging towards him again, with a look of shock and anger on his face.
"It's you, Xiao Qing! How dare you assassinate me!"
"Yes, it's me!" Xiao Qing shouted coldly, and stabbed forward with the spear in his hand at an even faster speed.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
Xiao Qing grabbed the Qinglong Spear and stabbed repeatedly, while Pang Tianpeng chopped and slashed repeatedly.
Every time the sword chopped on the tip of the gun, sparks burst out.
"I never thought that you not only recovered your strength, but also increased your power to such an extent. No wonder you dared to participate in the hunt! But you should never attack me. You are far from being able to reap the benefits without being the only one who makes money!"
"Since I dare to take action, I must be confident!" Xiao Qing said coldly.
The Qinglong Spear in his hand was like an angry dragon stirring up the sea, stirring up gusts of wind, in which the green light became more and more numerous and faster and faster.
Pang Tianpeng swung his long sword continuously, and the blade spewed out flaming shadows. One slash after another was like a rolling wave of fire.
"Dang! Dang! Dang!" The deafening sound of metal clashing rang out frequently.
Pang Tianpeng’s expression became increasingly ugly.
In the battle with Hua Chi just now, he had exhausted more than half of his strength and was also slightly injured, but after all, he was a man with the strengths of two families and was at the Bone Refining Realm, so he thought it should not be a problem for him to defeat Xiao Qing.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qing's strength was much stronger than he had imagined, and was not inferior to an ordinary bone refining master!
"Brother, the night is long and dreams are many. It's time for you to take action!" Pang Tianpeng felt that the strength in his body was being rapidly consumed, and finally asked for help with a gloomy face .
Mao Zongjun did not respond to Pang Tianpeng, but looked coldly to the right and said: "Since you are here, then come out. Let me see how capable you are. You dare to plot against Jin Liemen and Pang family!"
When Mao Zongjun finished speaking, there was indeed a fluctuation of aura in the jungle ahead.
Mao Zongjun's pupils suddenly shrank, and Qin Gen and the other two beside him suddenly tensed their muscles.
Just when Mao Zongjun's attention was almost attracted by the breath fluctuations in front of him on the right, he suddenly felt a warning and looked up at the sky.
Suddenly, a ray of silver light broke through the clouds in the gloomy sky above this world, and then clouds and mist rolled down from the sky.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!" The sound of many flying swords breaking through the air was heard in the clouds.
"How is this possible!" Mao Zongjun, Qin Gen and others' faces suddenly changed.
"Nothing is impossible!" Qin Ziling, who was riding on the four heads and was covered by clouds, smiled coldly. In his hand, there was a sky-splitting sword. Then he jumped down from the four heads, and rushed down like a falling meteor.
The Sky-Splitting Sword is raised high!
"Not good!" Mao Zongjun saw a figure with cold light in the clouds, falling towards him at an extremely terrifying speed. His face changed again, and without thinking, he grabbed the knife with both hands to block it.
The whole body's energy, blood and strength rushed to the arms like they were free. The muscles in the arms were tangled like the roots of an old tree, and the strength surged inside them like flames burning.
Qin Ziling's terrifying blood and energy power, coupled with the six-hundred-pound Sky-Splitting Sword and the momentum of his body falling from a height of fifty or sixty meters, just think about how terrifying that power is.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
After the first cut, Mao Zongjun's eyes bulged out, the muscles and blood vessels in his arms burst, and his legs sank deeply into the ground.
When the second and third cuts were made, blood began to flow from all of Mao Zongjun's seven orifices, and his eyes were filled with horror and disbelief.
When Qin Ziling's force was finally exhausted and he needed to fight back, a glimmer of hope appeared in Mao Zongjun's eyes. Suddenly, a green light spurted out of Qin Ziling's mouth and turned into a sharp sword that wrapped around Mao Zongjun's neck.
The hope in Mao Zongjun's eyes froze in an instant.
"Have you forgotten that I am also a Qi Refiner?"
After saying that, Qin Ziling looked towards the misty surroundings, and saw that Si Shou and Yuan Da, with the cooperation of the Water Cloud Sword Formation, were just like him, killing Qin Gen and his two companions in a lightning speed. They were already exhausted and seriously injured.
At this moment, it was madly sucking their blood.
