A guard stepped forward and whispered in Zhu Tianba's ear: "They went a step too late and let that Ma Xiaoyao escape."
"Damn it!" Zhu Tianba's face suddenly darkened: "They are all a bunch of losers!"
Seeing Zhu Tianba getting angry, the guards around him became frightened and did not dare to take a breath.
In the Qinglong Dynasty, only Zhu Yingying dared to contradict Zhu Tianba in public. Anyone else would never dare to contradict Zhu Tianba even if they were brave enough.
"Issuing a wanted order, anyone who provides information on Ma Xiaoyao's whereabouts will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold. Anyone who kills Ma Xiaoyao will be rewarded with a reward of ten thousand taels of gold and be granted the title of marquis and prime minister." Zhu Tianba's tone was gloomy and cold.
"yes!"
A guard left quickly to handle the wanted order.
…
Princess Mansion.
Zhu Yingying was lying on the bed, staring at the roof in a daze. She had been doing this for a day and a night, neither eating nor drinking. She ignored others who spoke to her. She looked like a living dead.
"Your Majesty is here!"
A high-pitched cry came from outside.
"Bang!"
The closed door was pushed open, and Zhu Tianba walked in with steady steps. He raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yingying: "I heard that you are on a hunger strike?"
Zhu Yingying said nothing.
"Do you think I can't do anything to you if you don't speak?" Zhu Tianba snorted coldly: "I count to three, and if you don't sit up, I will order the execution of everyone in the Princess Mansion, including their family members.
."
"You..." Zhu Yingying finally reacted. She slowly sat up with her hands on the edge of the bed, staring at Zhu Tianba angrily with her two red and swollen eyes: "You threaten me at every turn. It's really despicable."
"Despicable?" Zhu Tianba smiled, but it was just a sneer: "If I am not despicable, can you bow your head?"
"you……"
"Listen, eat well and sleep well. If you dare to play tricks with me again, I will execute everyone in the princess mansion."
"You are driving me to death."
"No, I won't let you die. On the contrary, I will let you live well and happily."
"I am not happy!"
"That's only temporary. You are blinded by lard now. When you wake up, you will naturally understand my good intentions. Okay, you have a good rest. I will come to see you another day." After saying these words.
, Zhu Tianba turned around and left.
"Damn it!" Zhu Yingying slapped the edge of the bed hard: "Despicable! So despicable! He threatens me with the lives of all the people in the government at every turn... It's really despicable!"
Although she was very angry and angry, Zhu Yingying still got out of bed to eat. After eating, she took a hot bath and then lay down in bed to sleep.
With Zhu Tianba's lifeline pinched, Zhu Yingying had no room to resist.
The people in the Princess Mansion have been following Zhu Yingying for many years and have developed feelings for them. If they want this group of people to continue to live, Zhu Yingying can only bow her head and compromise. There is no other way.
…
There is a huge sea of fire on the border of Daliang Kingdom. It has a very impressive name "Eight Hundred Miles of Fire Sea".
At this moment, there was a person standing outside the sea of fire. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Ma Xiaoyao.
Why did he come here? Of course it was to practice!
To others, the Eight Hundred Miles of Fire Sea is a forbidden area, a terrifying and dangerous place, but for Ma Xiaoyao, it is an excellent training ground.
"Yingying, please wait patiently for a while. After I improve my cultivation, I will pick you up. I will kill anyone who dares to stop you!" After Ma Xiaoyao called out the mysterious bead, he walked in.
into the sea of fire.
First he saw red flames, then blue flames. Last time Ma Xiaoyao practiced in blue flames. Today he wanted to try it to see if he could enter the next level of flames, which is green flames.
Ma Xiaoyao cautiously entered the green flame area. He was fully prepared. As long as he felt that the situation was not good, he would withdraw immediately.
"It's okay." Ma Xiaoyao said with joy on his face: "As I guessed, as long as you enter the yellow level realm, the green flames will no longer threaten you... Well, let's go to the next area and have a look?" As the saying goes, people are not enough to swallow snakes.
Xiang, after discovering that the green flames posed no threat to him, Ma Xiaoyao thought about it and wanted to visit the next area.
After a slight hesitation, Ma Xiaoyao walked forward.
It's better to give it a try, and if it doesn't work, just go back. With the mysterious beads protecting you, there shouldn't be much danger.
I walked to the edge of the green flame in one breath, and then I saw an orange flame in front of me.
"The fourth flame turned out to be an orange flame." Ma Xiaoyao put his hand into the orange flame and sensed it. Apart from feeling a little warm, there was no discomfort at all. The corner of Ma Xiaoyao's mouth curled up slightly. It seemed that this orange flame
There is no harm to yourself.
After making sure it was safe, Ma Xiaoyao stepped into the orange flame area.
It's warm, comfortable, and feels very good.
"I don't know what the fifth flame is." Driven by curiosity, Ma Xiaoyao walked forward.
A moment later, Ma Xiaoyao saw the fifth flame.
"It's purple flames." Ma Xiaoyao secretly exclaimed: "It looks so beautiful, but I don't know how powerful it is." As he spoke, Ma Xiaoyao directly stretched me into the purple flames: "Oh!" Ma Xiaoyao seemed to be trapped by a bug.
He bit it and hurriedly withdrew his hand.
Ma Xiaoyao looked down and found some minor burns on the back and palms of his hands.
"What a powerful purple flame. If you hesitated just a little bit, this hand would be useless." Ma Xiaoyao was secretly shocked.
After passing some tests, Ma Xiaoyao has come to the conclusion that with his current cultivation strength, he can at best walk in orange flames. As for the purple flames... he doesn't have the ability to touch them yet.
"Practice." Ma Xiaoyao sat cross-legged on the ground, closed his eyes, and began to manipulate the mysterious beads to absorb the surrounding fire-attribute energy.
Half a day later.
The fire energy in his body has reached a balanced state.
Ma Xiaoyao did not stop practicing, but went all out to hit the Xuan level.
"boom!!!"
In just one round, the bottleneck in front of him was completely eliminated, and Ma Xiaoyao smoothly became a Xuan-level master.
After another half day, Ma Xiaoyao stopped practicing, opened his eyes, and two rays of light flashed in his eyes. He had stabilized his cultivation at the tenth level of the Xuan level, and there was only one layer of window paper left from the level of the Earth level.
.
This is the great thing about the mysterious beads. As long as you successfully advance to the next level, it will help you reach the peak of this level in the shortest time. For example, Ma Xiaoyao was at the tenth level of the Yellow Rank just now, and he broke through after some practice.
The bottleneck was promoted to the first level of the Mysterious Order, and then with the help of the mysterious beads, he was quickly promoted from the first level of the Mysterious Order to the tenth level of the Mysterious Order. The journey was smooth and there were almost no obstacles encountered.
Now in the Dantian, the fire-based Qi family dominates! As long as he can cultivate the metal-based Qi, wood-based Qi, water-based Qi, and earth-based Qi into a balanced state, he can hit the earth-level realm.
This kind of cultivation speed is simply unbelievable.
"Now that I am a profound master, I should be able to enter the purple flame area, right?" Until now, Ma Xiaoyao still couldn't forget the purple flame. He stood up and walked towards the purple flame cautiously.
One step, two steps, three steps...
The distance is getting closer and closer...
After a while, Ma Xiaoyao entered the purple flame area as he wished, feeling warm and without any discomfort!
"As I guessed, as long as I advance to the Xuan level, the purple flame will no longer threaten me." Ma Xiaoyao grinned: "Let's go ahead and see what color the sixth flame is.
"
Just do it when you think about it, move forward in stride, and solve the doubts in your heart.
After half a stick of incense, Ma Xiaoyao saw the sixth flame, "It's a white flame?! Compared with the purple flame, the white flame has a kind of clean beauty." Ma Xiaoyao tried to touch the white flame, and the process was very long.
Successfully, there was no resistance from the white flames.
Ma Xiaoyao boldly walked into the white flame area. Apart from a slight scorching heat, he felt no other discomfort. Since there was no danger, Ma Xiaoyao walked confidently and boldly in the white flame area.
After walking for more than an hour, Ma Xiaoyao saw the seventh flame, which was a black flame. When he was still several hundred meters away, Ma Xiaoyao felt a heart-stopping heat, and he hurriedly stopped.
, after carefully observing the black flames, they slowly retreated.
Although there was no direct contact, Ma Xiaoyao could still feel the terrifying power of the black flames. With his current cultivation strength, he could not withstand the burning of the black flames.
We can only wait until we advance to the earth level to explore the secret of the black flame.
"I wonder what color of flame is behind the black flame..." Ma Xiaoyao secretly guessed.
"The flames here are all treasures. It would be great if they could be taken out."
"It's a pity... I don't have the tools to contain the flames."
"The Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map is a good choice. The key problem is that it is not under my control."
"How about asking Senior Fortune Teller for a favor?"
After hesitating for a moment, Ma Xiaoyao decided to contact the fortune teller: "Senior fortune teller, are you free now? I have something to trouble you with."
"...What's the matter?" After a long time, the fortune teller finally responded, his voice sounding unusually tired.
"It's like this. I want to put something in the Shanhe Sheji Map, but I don't know if it's convenient." Ma Xiaoyao said.
"...What do you want to put in?"
"Fire! I want to store some fire for self-defense."
"No." The fortune teller refused straight away: "The most taboo thing in the Mountains and Rivers Sheji Map is flame. If you want to store the flame in its body, it will definitely not agree."
"Senior..." Ma Xiaoyao wanted to discuss it again, but the fortune teller didn't give him this chance at all.
"I'm really tired now. I want to have a good sleep. Don't disturb me unless there is something very special in the future." After saying this, the fortune teller stopped talking to Ma Xiaoyao.
