Star Trace Gate

Bulao Mountain, northeast direction.

Ren Ye looked at his beloved concubine's concerned expression, and his heart was extremely warm. He replied coquettishly: "With the blessing of my beloved concubine, this king will naturally be safe. This trip has yielded a lot of rewards. I got more than two million star sources, found the antidote to the source of the plague, and got two precious books. Most importantly, although there are women in the secret realm who seduce me, this king is as pure as jade and always thinking about my beloved concubine..."

If the Flower Fairy heard this, she would probably raise her hands and hit him with two big noses. She had never known what it meant to flirt since she was born. Although she had a peerless face, she was not aware of her beauty. The only clothes she had bought for herself in recent years were a few bras... and they were uncomfortable to wear. She felt that her talent was restrained.

Xu Qingzhao heard Ren Ye's answer and knew that this guy must be fine. Then his eyes sparkled with stars: "You actually obtained so many star sources? Can I get my salary in advance?"

"My dear son, to be honest, I have always seen that you have a bright future, but can you please distribute the quarterly dividends to the shareholders first...?!" Old Liu asked anxiously.

"I don't ask for a share of the money. Just don't ask me for money anymore." Xu Bangzi added without asking for much.

"Hey, the dignified King Huai, can he still be short of such a small amount of money from you? What kind of situation is this?!" When the money was mentioned, Ren Ye immediately waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I will save this money for you first..."

Xu Qingzhao said quietly, "If you don't pay, don't enter the door of my bedroom in the future."

"Yes, and don't enter my back door." Seeing that Ren was fine, Lao Liu was in a very good mood and started to respond to the jokes intensively.

Ren Ye didn't respond at all, and just changed the subject: "Do you know who the five masters of magical powers who cooperated with me in the secret realm of Bu Lao Mountain are? Really, if I tell you, I will scare you to death."

"He's such a powerful person, he's from the Supreme People's Court, can he scare me to death?" Old Liu replied disapprovingly.

"I saw Guan Feng. Moreover, leaders from the Southern Xinjiang court, the Daqian court, and the Qianli Green Camp are all here..." In order to avoid paying, Ren used slightly exaggerated words.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Old Liu stretched his neck and asked in a daze, "The leader of the Daqian court? Damn, could it be...your uncle came in person?! No way, he is the emperor. Have you ever seen an emperor who would venture into the secret realm and compete with you little Karamis?"

"Let's go, let's go first, and talk while we walk." Ren also turned his head and looked around: "It's not advisable to stay here for long, hurry up."

"What's wrong?" Xu Bangzi asked.

"Let's go first, we still have two people to pick up." Ren Ye replied.

Seeing that he had a serious expression and didn't seem to be joking, everyone immediately took away the Eternal Night Divine Ship and left the northeast side of the Eternal Age Mountain with him.

……

On the road.

While leading the team on a quick march, Ren Ye truthfully told the three of them what had happened in the past few days.

After listening to this, Ai Fei frowned slightly and said, "From this perspective, this border incident has far-reaching implications."

She was somewhat worried about the situation of Qingliang Mansion, and even more worried about Ren Ye's difficulties. With so many powerful forces involved, Qingliang Mansion, with its weak strength, would be hard to protect itself after being forced to get involved.

"Don't worry, my beloved." Ren Ye said calmly, "Whenever a big event comes, it is a crisis, but also an opportunity."

Xu Qingzhao looked at his confident expression and became more confident in his heart: "You seem to be different from when you came in."

"I am still the king. I just watched a big show and had an epiphany." Under the moonlight, Ren Ye turned his head and smiled sweetly at that beautiful face.

"So are we going to pick up Taoist Fenglin and Erleng now?" Old Liu asked.

"Yes." Ren nodded and replied, "Pick them up and we'll return to Qingliang Prefecture immediately to solve the plague problem first. Besides, I have a lot of things to ask Fenglin."

"Well, when I heard you describe the performance of Fenglin Taoist in the secret realm just now, I felt that this guy was an old bastard, and he was also fucking rich. You can hand him over to me for blackmail... Oh no, hand him over to me for interrogation." Old Liu's IQ was worrying, and he blurted out what was in his mind without paying attention.

"It's not impossible. I'm very familiar with him. You can play the good cop and I'll play the bad cop, and we'll get rich together." Ren Yejing agreed.

"It's settled." Old Liu was extremely happy when he heard this.

"and many more!"

At this moment, Xu Bangzi, who had been silently observing his surroundings, suddenly waved his hand.

The three of them were stunned and all turned to look at him.

"What's wrong?" asked the beloved concubine.

"Something's not right." Xu Bangzi looked around with a serious expression.

At this moment, everyone had entered the deep old forest of the Bulao Mountain. Ren Ye looked at the special scenery around him with his memory and roughly figured out that they were currently in the middle of the spiritual tunnel and the tomb of the twenty-four heavenly kings.

Ren also frowned: "What's wrong?"

"The temperature is wrong." Xu Bangzi replied firmly.

"Speak human language!" Old Liu said anxiously, "What do you mean the temperature is wrong? Are you a thermometer?"

Xu Bangzi stared at the road ahead, raised his left hand and waved it gently: "The air temperature around here has obviously increased, and it feels burning. Someone must have made a fire here to keep warm."

When the three heard this, they immediately perked up.

When it comes to assassination, ambush, and doing dirty and shameless things, Xu Bangzi is undoubtedly the most professional among the four. He can speak so seriously and make such a judgment, which means he must be fully confident.

"Shh!"

The beloved concubine instantly exudes perception, paving the way forward.

"Crash!"

The thought arose and turned into a breeze that passed by, blowing up a lot of withered yellow leaves on the ground.

Ren also looked up and saw a pit covered by the dead leaves, and there were some traces of burning wood in it.

"Whizzing……!"

Suddenly, more than a dozen arrows shot out from the front, left and right directions.

Someone in the forest suddenly shot an arrow, and the attack was very sudden.

"boom!"

Old Liu was the first to react. He simply used the power of the star source to condense the shadow of a giant in the forest.

"What a bullshit, I'll give it back to you!"

Old Liu roared, controlled the giant's big hand in the air, caught more than a dozen arrows in an instant, and then threw them back.

"Whoosh whoosh...!"

The arrow was faster and more urgent than when it came, and it disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye.

"Pfft!"

Two loud noises were heard, and two people fell in the woods, with their foreheads completely pierced by the reflected arrows, dying in a very tragic way.

Lao Liu flexed his wrist and said, "I haven't done anything for seven or eight days. I'm still doing a good job!"

The other three concentrated their minds and gathered their energy, and Ai Fei spoke first, "There are nine people."

Old Liu looked ahead and yelled, "You've been discovered, why the hell are you still not showing up?!"

The shouts drifted in the air, and nine people slowly walked out from the woods in front and on the left and right.

The leader was dressed in linen, was tall, had poisonous pustules on his face, and looked extremely ugly.

On his shoulder lay a strange beast that looked like a bird but not a bird, and like an eagle but not an eagle. It was very small and looked about the same size as a squirrel.

"Haha, the lackeys around the young King Huai are really sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. We hid here with the invisibility talisman, but we were discovered."

The man in linen stepped forward and said with a haughty look, "You have no hatred towards us brothers, but you have been waiting here for many days because someone entrusted you to do so. If you know what's good for you, you can hand over your weapon and avoid the pain."

"You can restock. The invisibility talismans are running out." Old Liu looked at the nine people and whispered softly.

"Very good." Xu Qingzhao understood his meaning instantly and agreed: "A quick battle and a quick decision. If they can wait, others can wait too."

"They chose to put out the fire and hide earlier, which means they discovered the four of us, but didn't want to fight." Xu Bangzi said faintly: "I infer that they have sent someone out to report the news, and there must be people lying in ambush around."

"You three fight nine, I'll go after the person who reported the news." Ren Ye responded immediately: "Don't let him leak his whereabouts, otherwise we'll be in trouble."

Four people, four mouths, through a few words, they roughly inferred each other's core behaviors and ideas. This is the tacit understanding and quality of the people in the park.

Not far away, the man in linen clothes spoke again: "Little King Huai, I will give you one last chance. Within three breaths, hand over your weapons and trap yourself in the magic..."

"How dare a frog in a well make such noise?!"

The beloved concubine murmured in a cold tone, then decisively raised her arms and shot six copper coins at the ground at an extremely fast speed: "Sumeru Formation - Start!"

"Kill them all in ten steps!"

"Whoosh!"

Xu Bangzi drew out his slender sword and charged into the crowd.

"Boom!"

Old Liu pushed the giant figure to the extreme, making it seventy or eighty meters tall, like a god or demon, waving his fists and saying: "Pants outside, one punch man!"

Not far away, nine people looked solemn and retreated one after another, showing their magical powers.

"The second brother has gone to deliver the letter. If we delay for a while, we can wait for reinforcements..." the man in linen clothes told his companions in a voice transmission.

"Boom!"

In an instant, the mountains and forests were filled with magical lights and the sounds of fierce fighting were deafening.

About twenty breaths later...

The middle-aged man Ma Bu and others who wanted to delay time were cut into pieces by the sword of their beloved concubine; three of them were torn to pieces by the giant shadow of Lao Liu; and the remaining three bodies were cut into pieces by Xu Bangzi with thirty-six swords in one breath.

Twenty breaths, just twenty breaths, among the nine people, only the middle-aged man in linen survived.

The forest was filled with corpses and blood. Old Liu stepped on the chest of the middle-aged man in sackcloth, played with his bird and beast with his hands, and asked softly: "... I will give you a chance, use the bird in your crotch to tie this bird within three breaths... I will leave you with an intact body."

The sackcloth man never expected that this group of people would be so powerful. He could only say in disbelief: "Brother... I... I was indeed a little reckless in my previous actions."

……

In another forest.

After searching for a long time, Ren Ye still couldn't find the person who reported the news.

He stood there, carefully sensing his surroundings, but suddenly discovered something unusual: "Hmm, why is there such a strong smell of blood...?!"

"Tap!"

Before the whispered words faded away, a burly figure suddenly walked out of the woods ahead.

Under the moonlight, the burly young man had an honest face, holding a shiny famous sword in his right hand and a bloody human head in his left hand.

Ren also looked up and was stunned for a moment.

The burly young man threw away the head in an instant, knelt on one knee, inserted his sword, clasped his fists and shouted: "Under the command of King Huai, the commander of the palace guards - Hong Jiadi, greets my master!"
