Zongwu: The Rise of the Little People

Murong Jiu stood there in a daze, not knowing what to say.

Zhao Xu on the side ignored Murong Jiu's current state, and continued to speak: "When I saw Miss Jiu today, I felt a little strange, but I couldn't find the reason."

"Compared to the average person, the girl seems to be a little too indifferent."

Zhao Xu's words seemed to have touched Murong Jiu's sore spot, and her face instantly became a little ugly.

"So what? This has nothing to do with you."

Hearing Murong Jiu's cold tone, Zhao Xu laughed.

"Ninth Miss, why do you have to deceive yourself? If this happens, there must be something wrong with the martial arts you practiced."

Zhao Xu's words were like a heavy hammer hitting Murong Jiu's chest, making her feel a little breathless.

Murong Jiu is a person who thinks highly of himself, so he usually keeps to himself and rarely reveals his cultivation progress to others.

Today, a person who had only met her twice could actually see the difficulties she was facing in her practice.

How could this not surprise her.

At this time, Zhang Jing in the field also noticed the situation here.

She finished her whip practice and walked over.

"Xu Lang, what's wrong? Why does Xiao Jiu look so ugly?"

Zhao Xu did not hide anything from Zhang Jing and directly told her his guess.

"what?"

"Could it be..."

Zhang Jing looked surprised at first, then seemed to have thought of something.

"Xiaojiu, are you still practicing that fossil magic skill?"

Faced with Zhang Jing's questioning, Murong Jiu remained silent.

"Fossil magic power?"

Zhao Xu, who was standing by, had already known about the Fossil Magic Skill, but at this moment he pretended to be completely unaware of it.

Seeing Zhao Xu's puzzled expression, Zhang Jing explained, "The Fossil Magic is an evil magic that Xiao Jiu accidentally obtained. Although it is extremely powerful, it has a big flaw."

Speaking of this, Zhang Jing seemed to have thought of something.

"Xu Lang, you have a high level of cultivation, can you help Xiao Jiu take a look at this fossil magic skill?"

"See if there is any way to solve the problem."

Zhao Xu already had the idea of ​​taking a look at this fossil magic skill, so he naturally agreed to Zhang Jing's request.

Zhao Xu agreed, and Zhang Jing turned his attention to Murong Jiu.

Murong Jiu was also somewhat tempted by Zhang Jing's proposal.

The fact that Zhao Xu was able to tell that there was something wrong with his practice in such a short time shows that he has extraordinary abilities.

But Murong Jiu's pride prevented her from letting an outsider get in touch with the secrets of her practice for no reason.

"I agree."

"However, I have a condition!"

Zhang Jing was very happy to see Murong Jiu agreed, but then she heard Murong Jiu put forward more conditions.

This made her smiling face freeze instantly. She could only turn her head and look at Zhao Xu pitifully.

Zhao Xu had long anticipated Murong Jiu's arrogance, and Zhang Jing beside him was looking at him with the same look.

Zhao Xu nodded helplessly.

"Okay, just say it!"

"I want you to fight me, and I'll be the winner."

Zhao Xu was not surprised when he heard Murong Jiu's conditions.

This proud woman can only be made to obey by someone stronger than her.

Of course, Zhao Xu couldn't help but complain in his heart at this time: "It's really a bit of a masochistic tendency!"

The martial arts arena was silent.

Murong Jiu's face was cold.

"Mr. Zhao, although you have a special relationship with Jingjing, I will not hold back."

"Go ahead, I have confidence in myself."

Zhao Xu sometimes feels helpless.

Murong Jiu has good talent and is stronger than Zhang Jing, but he is only at the middle or late stage of the first-rate level.

Compared with Zhao Xu at this time, there is a world of difference.

But he couldn't say these out loud!

Murong Jiu in the martial arts arena is completely different from her usual self.

As soon as Zhao Xu finished speaking, Murong Jiu attacked him.

This girl, who is usually weak and pitiful, is as fast as the wind and as powerful as thunder when she moves her hands.

With a move of her body, a green skirt fluttered, and Murong Jiu's first palm came directly towards Zhao Xu's chest.

Murong Jiu launched the offensive and used the Fossil Magic Skill at full power.

Her expression became extremely cold, and her fair cheeks took on an unhealthy bluish-gray hue.

At this time, the temperature of the environment in the martial arts arena dropped sharply due to the influence of the fossil's internal force.

Facing Murong Jiu's palm full of chill, Zhao Xu did not dodge, but took a horse stance on the spot.

He also slapped Murong Jiu with his palm.

"Iron Palm"

Different from Murong Jiu's overwhelming attack, Zhao Xu's attack seemed to be back to basics.

Apart from the palm looking as white as jade and emitting a strange glow, there was not much movement.

Facing this plain and simple palm strike, Murong Jiu's face remained indifferent, without any expression visible.

But the "little fairy" Zhang Jing outside the venue seemed a little anxious.

She was well aware of Zhao Xu's strength (of course, referring to three months ago), so she should have no problem dealing with "Xiao Jiu".

But the palm strike Zhao Xu made at this time did not feel any power.

She was worried that Zhao Xu might have been careless because Murong Jiu was a woman.

Zhao Xu in the field had no idea how the "little fairy" outside the field felt at the moment. He was very confident in his own strength.

He did not use the most powerful Five Divine Palms.

Zhao Xu was confident that he could suppress Murong Jiu just by using Iron Sand Palm.

Let her see what absolute strength is.

Zhao Xu met Murong Jiu, and their palms touched and separated immediately without causing any big noise.

Zhao Xu did not move, but the floor beneath his feet became shattered. It was obvious that he had directed the force of the collision into the ground, so there was no sound.

Murong Jiu on the other side was blown away.

"Xiaojiu"

Zhang Jing on the side exclaimed.

Murong Jiu was obviously stimulated by this result.

She was in mid-air, and because she was distracted, she failed to adjust her posture and was about to fall to the ground.

Zhang Jing's scream woke Murong Jiu up, but it was too late.

Just as the tragedy was about to happen, a figure appeared at the point where Murong Jiu was to land, as if by teleportation.

Murong Jiu closed her eyes tightly and did not wait until she touched the floor, but fell into a masculine embrace.

She opened her eyes and looked at the strong man who had saved her.

Murong Jiu's icy heart began to beat violently, and a blush appeared on his face.

"Xiaojiu, are you okay?"

"Xu Lang, thank goodness you are here."

Zhang Jing's voice brought Murong Jiu back to reality.

What she didn't know was that Zhao Xu saw the blush on her face.

"This girl, will she be conquered by my charm?" Such a thought flashed through Zhao Xu's mind.

"It's a small matter. After all, I am a man and a strong man. I will not let tragedy happen."

Murong Jiu came back to his senses and quickly got out of Zhao Xu's arms, his face returning to its initial indifference.

"Okay, the competition is over."

"Mr. Zhao, I recognize your strength. Next, I will take you to see the Fossil Divine Art."

Under the guidance of Murong Jiu, Zhao Xu and Zhang Jing came to a private pharmacy.

This pharmacy is very spacious, with many precious medicinal materials placed on all four walls.

In the middle of the pharmacy are medicine-making instruments and some refined pills.

From this we can see that Murong Jiu's mastery of alchemy and pharmacology is not an exaggeration.

After passing the pharmacy, he came to a bluestone passage. At the end of the passage, a bronze door appeared in front of Zhao Xu.

Murong Jiu did not hesitate and opened the bronze door directly.

In an instant, a chill rushed out from the bronze door.
