Chapter 329: Meeting an old friend
[Someone mentioned me?]
Zhong Lixiao frowned slightly as he ran towards Huzhou, and then began to calculate.

Then, Zhong Lixiao raised his eyebrows.

The life of our eldest disciple Xue Jingliang is in danger? !

Zhong Lixiao said nothing more, and immediately, through the mysterious karma between master and disciple, turned his gaze in the direction of his eldest disciple Xue Jingliang.

As the layers of fog were gradually cleared away, he finally located the position of his eldest disciple Xue Jingliang.

Afterwards, Zhong Lixiao vaguely saw the situation on Xue Jingliang's side.

It seemed that he was almost at the end of his strength and was making his final desperate charge.

Zhong Lixiao's brows suddenly raised, and then he focused his spiritual power on Xue Jingliang.

Xue Jingliang, who was already exhausted and could hardly cast even a few spells, suddenly felt a large amount of magic power in his dantian gushing out like a spring.

The sea of consciousness that had been ignited by him and was almost collapsed due to extreme pressure now stopped collapsing and was contained and improved.

A trace of coolness kept flowing into his heart, like a downpour from heaven, rescuing his splitting headache.

This is?

Although Xue Jingliang found it incredible, he immediately understood that a senior must have secretly helped him.

However, Xue Jingliang also understood that now was not the time to think about these things. He immediately used his spiritual power to activate the flying sword, while quickly chanting spells and releasing spells one after another.

At first, the thieves who besieged Xue Jingliang thought that this was just his last struggle, a spent force. It didn't matter even if they were unlucky enough to be killed by the trapped beast.

As long as we can finally successfully take Xue Jingliang's head, all the efforts and sacrifices will be worth it.

But soon someone noticed something was wrong!
They knew too much about Xue Jingliang's intelligence. His puppets had been almost completely consumed, and his magic power should have been very little. So why was Xue Jingliang getting stronger and stronger?
"Everyone be careful, Xue Jingliang may have taken some high-level elixir. Keep your distance and wait until he runs out of the elixir before we take his head."

Brush brush!
The group of thieves who had just maintained their formation and besieged Xue Jingliang quickly distanced themselves from each other and had no intention of fighting to the death with Xue Jingliang at this moment.

It's a bit like a wolf pack's fighting tactics.

They will follow you from a distance, surround you, and drag you until the prey's patience and strength are completely exhausted, and then they will complete the hunt.

Xue Jingliang was a military man after all, and had fought against countless barbarians on the grasslands, so he was very familiar with similar tactics.

but.

At this point, even if he understood it, it would be useless. He could only keep his eyes on a few of them and chase them relentlessly until they were completely killed.

It is better to cut off one finger than to injure all ten fingers.

As it turned out, Xue Jingliang's tactics were successful, and he successfully killed one of the enemies again.

However, the bandits who besieged him were too experienced in actual combat. They fought and retreated while maintaining their formation. Even when they retreated, they were still able to put tremendous pressure and interference on him.

Even if it was just to kill this one enemy, it still cost a considerable price.

The robes were completely scrapped. You have to know that these were the water and fire robes bestowed upon him by his master. Not only were they the relics left to him by his master, but they had also protected his safety many times.

But I didn't expect it to be scrapped like this!
Xue Jingliang felt quite heartbroken for a moment.

You should know that since the battle with this group of villains, Xue Jingliang's magic weapons have been almost completely worn out, just like puppets.

Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle. These thieves are so well prepared!

Even the Cloud-Stepping Boots on his feet were targeted by these thieves.

Damn!

Fortunately, he still has an endless supply of magic power in his body, which means that the senior’s support for him is still very firm.

Xue Jingliang immediately cast several protective spells on himself, and then fought and retreated, making a gesture as if he was ready to break out at any time, in order to lure the thieves who were besieging him to get closer to him again.

Unfortunately, those thieves were too cunning.

His eyesight was so sharp that it was terrifying. He saw that the effect of the elixir seemed to have not yet worn off, but he still surrounded him without attacking.

It was like training a hawk, and it made Xue Jingliang lose his temper.

He was also really worried that the senior who had been secretly supporting him would suddenly lose interest, or rather, lose patience, and could only desperately look for an opportunity to fight.

Unfortunately, this group of thieves were like loaches, so cunning that he never got any chance to catch them.

What's even more cunning is that in order to prevent him from having the opportunity to meditate and regulate his breathing, the group of thieves bombarded him with various means from time to time.

Time passed minute by minute. About a quarter of an hour later, Xue Jingliang, who had failed to break out several times, suddenly felt a wave of weakness in his heart.

But the support given to him by the senior in secret disappeared!

Xue Jingliang's expression suddenly changed, and his complexion deteriorated again at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Xue Jingliang took a deep breath and planned to launch a final desperate charge.

Among the thieves who were secretly besieging him, some had extremely keen eyesight and immediately cheered loudly, "This pus-filled foetus has used up all the mana he'd forcibly boosted with high-level elixirs, and has fallen into his weakest state. Everyone, attack together! Now is the time to make a difference."

"kill!"

Seeing that their "eagle-watching" was successful and it was time to finish the mission and make a contribution, the villains who besieged Xue Jingliang suddenly became excited and rushed towards Xue Jingliang, shouting.

Xue Jingliang also held the attitude of dying on the battlefield and planned to fight one last time. It would be a gain if he could kill anyone.

However, he did not expect that as soon as he launched the charge, the magic power in his dantian surged again, and his dried-up sea of consciousness was also effectively replenished.

Xue Jingliang suddenly looked strange.

That senior hasn't left yet?
Is this the empty city strategy?

Xue Jingliang was cheered up, his strength increased greatly, and he activated all kinds of defensive spells. He stepped on the cloud boots, controlled the magic weapon flying sword, and then rushed forward without caring about his life.

After a while.

Seeing two of their companions being killed in succession, the thieves who attacked in groups were somewhat defeated.

"Oh no, I've been fooled. The medicinal power of the pill has not been completely exhausted yet. Back off, don't fight him to death."

"That's right. As long as we guard this mountain pass, this abscess will definitely not be able to escape today. Don't worry!"

This group of thieves was once again forced to retreat, and once again used wolf pack tactics to surround but not attack, continuing to consume and harass.

Another half hour later.

After leaving behind one or two corpses again, this group of robbery cultivators were completely defeated.

"Why? Why on earth is this happening? Why does he still need mana?"

On the contrary, Xue Jingliang became more and more courageous and energetic. He laughed loudly and said, "I am a disciple of Baiyun Temple, and Master Zhong is a world-renowned alchemist. I have a few life-saving pills given by Master Zhong, so what? Are you dissatisfied?"

One of the thieves who surrounded Xue Jingliang was so angry that he cursed, "Your short-lived master's grave is now covered with grass so high that I wonder how many elixirs he can leave for you. You must die today!"

Another half hour later.

Xue Jingliang, who seemed to have exhausted the effects of the drug, fought with the group of thieves again. However, unlike before, this time Xue Jingliang was extremely brave and his fighting method was extremely strange.

In a short time, he killed all the bandits surrounding him and put them into collapse.

because.

Xue Jingliang finally managed to revive the inner cultivation troops that were previously killed!
"How could this be?"

"Why can't his mana be exhausted?"

"And what kind of magic are those who attack us in secret?"

"No"

Yang Jing, Gu Feng, Zhang Bao, Yang Erniu and other soldiers appeared and disappeared on the battlefield without a trace, moving up and down, left and right, and releasing a small spell from time to time. In a short time, they completely destroyed the formation and defense line of this group of thieves.

Once the fighting spirit collapses, the team will be in complete chaos.

What followed was the time of chasing the enemy to the north, which Xue Jingliang was very familiar with.

In just a short period of time, he achieved more results than ever before in his battles with this gang of villains.

On the top of a mountain, Zhong Lixiao looked at the great victory scene of chasing the enemy and chasing them north, and a gratified smile appeared on his face.

Xue Jingliang, the eldest disciple, is truly worthy of being an old general who has fought for half his life. His combat skills are really excellent.

The only shortcoming is that the realm is not high enough.

Seeing that some thieves were about to escape, Zhong Lixiao blew out a breath lightly, and then a drizzle began to fall on the battlefield.

The rain didn't cause anything when it fell on Xue Jingliang, but when it fell on the fleeing thieves, it was like huge rocks.

This method is exactly the combination of Zhong Lixiao's mountain Dharma intention and the water intention of the Lord of Nectar.

Puff puff!
The thief was hit by a few drops of water and was caught off guard, and his head was cracked open and covered with peach blossoms.

At this point, how could they not know that the reason why Xue Jingliang was so weird was because there was an expert interfering in the dark?
Unfortunately, even if they knew, it wouldn't change anything.

One after another, they bit the poison sacs in their mouths and died in the blink of an eye.

Dead soldier?

Zhong Lixiao narrowed his eyes and glanced at one of the assassins who had not yet had time to bite through the poison sac. His body suddenly froze and he could not move.

The stiff body of the dead soldier was horrified, his eyes kept moving left and right, and his eyes were filled with endless fear.

On the other side, Xue Jingliang finally managed to deal with the aftermath successfully. Seeing that the senior who had been secretly helping him not only easily intercepted the thief who was trying to escape, but also left him alive, he was overjoyed.

Xue Jingliang looked around and finally saw a figure with fluttering clothes on a hilltop.

Xue Jingliang quickly bowed deeply and said, "I am Xue Jingliang, the senior disciple of Zhong Weiyi and a descendant of the Guizang Peak lineage of Baiyun Temple. Thank you very much for saving my life, Senior."

"No need to be polite. I just can't stand seeing these thieves barking and doing whatever they want in broad daylight."

Xue Jingliang felt a force lifting him up.

What made him feel even more incredible was that the previous moment, this senior was still on a distant mountain top, but in the blink of an eye she was already not far in front of him.

Seeing a fairy in a colorful feathered robe, Xue Jingliang was immediately surprised. He had not expected this senior to be so young. However, when he thought that this was the world of immortal cultivation and that one could not judge age based solely on appearance, Xue Jingliang felt relieved.

Xue Jingliang bowed once again and said, "Jingliang thanks you for saving my life, Senior. These thieves have kidnapped my junior sister. Please allow me to interrogate the criminal."

"Go!"

Zhong Lixiao also wanted to know who was so bold as to target his disciples.

However, he had some guesses in his mind.

A true blood family with White Tiger bloodline?

"Thank you, senior, for your help."

Xue Jingliang immediately walked up to the captured thief, reached out and took out the poison sac from his mouth. He felt relieved only after confirming that he had no other means of suicide.

And Zhong Lixiao also lifted the restrictions on his mouth at the right time!

The thief who had been extremely arrogant just now suddenly looked terrified.

"Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"

Snapped!
Xue Jingliang immediately slapped the man's face, causing it to swell up. He then said viciously, "We are interrogating you now. You'd better tell the truth and don't test my patience."

"Hahahahaha~~~"

The thief laughed wantonly, "Pustuple, pustuple, you still want to get information out of me? If you have the guts, kill me!"

Xue Jingliang didn't say any nonsense and immediately used some means to dismember the beast's bones.

In just a moment, the thief's eyes were full of bloodshot, and he was in so much pain that he was sweating all over and his body was shaking constantly.

"Pustuple, don't even think about asking a single word from me."

Xue Jingliang immediately increased the intensity of the interrogation and directly crushed his wrist and leg bones.

Even so, the thief still had no intention of speaking.

He is not afraid of death at all!

Xue Jingliang couldn't help but take a breath.

Although he did not obtain any intelligence from the interrogation, the thief's fearless attitude of facing death was itself a kind of intelligence.

Firstly, the force that secretly abducted his junior sister must be extremely powerful, otherwise they would not have the foundation to cultivate such a loyal warrior.

Secondly, the thief in the dark must have extremely terrifying power.

For this group of thieves and assassins, betrayal is many times more terrifying than death.

What level of power is this?
Xue Jingliang felt a chill!
When Zhong Lixiao saw this, he also thought of this, but he has always adhered to the attitude of "I will not offend others unless they offend me. If others offend me, I will definitely offend them."

No matter what powerful force is behind you, you keep plotting against them. You are courting death!

"I'll search your soul."

Zhong Lixiao didn't say much. A wave of his spiritual consciousness was like a sword wave, instantly piercing through the thief's eyebrows, like a red-hot iron, fiercely stabbing into his eyebrows.

What Zhong Lixiao didn't expect was that as soon as his spiritual consciousness entered, the magic formula that had already been recorded in the thief's sea of consciousness was immediately detonated.

Zhong Lixiao didn't even have time to suppress it before the man's sea of consciousness completely collapsed.

Afterwards, this assassin died completely, with even a hint of sarcasm still lingering on his face.

It seemed as if he was mocking him for overestimating his own abilities!
Zhong Lixiao snorted coldly, and immediately planned to mobilize the power of the Queen Mother to drag the soul of this beast into hell and interrogate him severely.

but.

As soon as this thought came into Zhong Lixiao's mind, the magical power "God loves fools" sent a warning.

Zhong Lixiao was forced to stop immediately.

He immediately understood that this must be the threat from the Divine Lord.

It would be fine if it was just a spiritual response, after all, when the gods reach a certain level, the talismans will contain this method.

But if the spiritual response is used together with the position of the Lord of the Palace, which involves some of the power of the underworld, the probability of him revealing his identity will increase significantly.

It is even very likely that it will cause the God to feel a connection with him!
After Zhong Lixiao thought about it for a moment, he suddenly felt disappointed.

The existence of this God is like a thorn in his side and a fishbone in his throat. It seems that he has to find a way to get out of this predicament as soon as possible.

But now, a little lack of patience will ruin big plans!
Compared to the villain targeting Hu Xiaolu, the God currently poses a much greater threat to him.

Those people have been targeting Hu Xiaolu for many years, and their purpose is very obvious. They don't expect that their third disciple will be in danger of his life in the short term.

but.

It would be very troublesome if he was targeted by the God again.

Apart from returning to the Demonic Lamp Realm and being trapped in the city of sorrow, Zhong Lixiao could not think of a better way to get rid of the spiritual response of the God.

He endures it!

However, the word "忍" is like a knife hanging over one's head, stabbing one's heart, and one is unable to think clearly.

Zhong Lixiao said helplessly, "He has already recorded the talisman formula in his sea of consciousness. The purpose is to counter the soul search. The group of thieves targeting you are very powerful. You should not underestimate them."

Xue Jingliang had some guesses in his mind when he heard this.

He didn't know this group of thieves, but he had some understanding of his junior sister's life experience.

A thief with white tiger bloodline? !
Xue Jingliang was angry and annoyed, but all these turned into determination in the end.

He bowed deeply to Zhong Lixiao again and said, "On behalf of my junior sister, I would like to thank you for everything you have done for us. I have no way to repay you for your kindness. As long as you need me, I will go through fire and water for you."

Zhong Lixiao smiled when he heard this. "My help is just a piece of cake. If you really want to repay me, I have something I need you to do for me."

Upon hearing this, Xue Jingliang was not nervous but felt relieved instead.

There is no such thing as a free lunch. Only when his senior needs his help can he feel at ease.

Zhong Lixiao: "I plan to go to the Geomancer's Palace. Please collect some information about it for me first."

That's it!

Xue Jingliang had a rough idea in mind, but he was still somewhat troubled.

This matter is not difficult, but it is not easy to say it is easy either.

With his current level of cultivation, he is not qualified to access the truly high-level information.

And the more important the intelligence is, the more financial support it requires.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, he heard the benefactor speak again, "There are some treasures in this storage bag. You can sell them on my behalf. Use them as start-up capital and help me collect more intelligence."

Xue Jingliang was overjoyed when he heard this.

First, he further believed that this senior really needed him to collect intelligence;

Secondly, he really needed financial support. The fact that this senior could think of this directly proved his character once again.

Xue Jingliang clasped his fists and said, "Senior, you saved my life and that of my junior sister. I will definitely help you to handle this matter properly. I wonder how I should address you?"

Zhong Lixiao: "My last name is Han."

Xue Jingliang: "It turned out to be Senior Han. Jingliang will remember it."

Zhong Lixiao looked Xue Jingliang up and down and said, "The emperor won't send hungry soldiers. Since he wants you to do something, he can't let you go with a sick body."

Zhong Lixiao stretched out his hand and took out the mutton-fat jade bottle.

After practicing a section of Tongbao Jue, Zhong Lixiao took out some of the nectar sealed inside.

"Drink it."

"Yes."

Xue Jingliang drank it all in one gulp without any hesitation.

Then he was completely shocked.

What kind of natural treasure is this?
After drinking one cup, the damage to his body, meridians and sea of consciousness that he had suffered after fighting for so long was recovering rapidly.

Even the level of cultivation seemed to be slightly loosened.

This is simply unimaginable!

Xue Jingliang didn't know what to say for a moment. He could only bow deeply and swear secretly in his heart that he must properly complete Senior Han's entrustment.

"I'll go to the outskirts of the Geomancer Palace first. You can find me in that small town when the time comes."

After Zhong Lixiao finished speaking, he turned into a blue rainbow light and disappeared.

He could have taken Xue Jingliang with him, but in the end he didn't do so.

His current identity is sensitive, so it is better for him to keep a distance from Xue Jingliang.

In addition, his clean and neat departure made it easier for Xue Jingliang to clean up the battlefield.

After the previous battle, Xue Jingliang was almost bald.

Alas, his master really worries himself!

Seeing Senior Han leave in such a leisurely manner, leaving the mess all over the place, Xue Jingliang felt both envious and delighted.

Afterwards, Xue Jingliang happily cleaned up the battlefield.

Although it is impossible to make up for the losses of the puppets this time, it can still make up for some of it.

What a good man!
