Chapter five hundred and seventy-two curse the gods!
In the battle of Wugan Mountain, the five hundred golden guards of Western Chu fought against the three thousand Kui beast cavalry, and they won a great victory, which shocked the entire Western Chu.
The entire army of three thousand Kui beast cavalry was wiped out, and the opponent's two god-level masters, plus the first genius of Western Qin, Zhuge Qi, were captured. Using these three people as bargaining chips, Western Chu and Western Qin negotiated a peace, and obtained countless spar resources from Western Qin.
A deliberate surprise attack by the Western Qin Heavenly Master Yin Tianfeng failed in the end. According to the peace agreement, the Qin army was forced to withdraw from Ma'erqin and returned to the Western Qin's own city.
Overnight, the Golden Guard became the hero of Xi Chu.
The few dozen remaining Golden Guards were all sealed and became a favorite story in Western Chu.
Zhuyu also became famous because of this battle. All the scenes of the battle on that day were recorded by the talisman array, and the phantoms about the battle were widely spread among the three armies.
Zhu Yu's superb cultivation and superb command of battle formations made him shine again after many years of silence.
Xiang Jingtian, the overlord of Western Chu, ordered that Zhu Yu be made a general of the left side and rebuild the Golden Guard. Zhu Yu also became a famous general of Western Chu overnight.
However, Zhu Yu's limelight has come out, but the golden prince Xiang Yuan was seriously injured in the battle, and his life and death are still uncertain. He was taken away by his master Xuan Huang Qi and disappeared.
Some people say that Xiang Yuan is dead, otherwise the Overlord of Western Chu would not have made Zhu Yu the general of the left side and replaced him.
What is more said is that Xiang Yuan suffered a serious injury and his cultivation level was greatly damaged. Xiang Jingtian has secretly sent him to a large sect to heal his injuries.
In any case, a great victory but the destruction of a golden young master was a mixed blessing for Xi Chu.
Of course, some people are overjoyed.
Especially for the other princes in the palace, something happened to the always aloof Golden Young Master. The heir to the Overlord of Western Chu suddenly became confusing. How could they not be overjoyed?
The eldest son Xiang Yuan even secretly sent troops to approach the Golden Guard's station, compressing the Golden Guard into a small corner and assuming an aggressive posture.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Zhu Yu no longer has the protection of Xiang Yuan, and the great prince Xiang Ding no longer has much to worry about.
The King of Western Chu will be competing soon. Before the King's Bi, Zhuyu showed such great strength. This is not good news for other forces.
Regarding the strength of Zhuyu, it is difficult for anyone to say clearly whether its cultivation level is at the peak of Wanshou or in the middle of Wanshou.
Because from the outside, it is clear that Zhu Yu only has a cultivation level in the middle stage of Wanshou. However, in the battle at Wugan Mountain, Zhu Yu resisted Zhuge Qi, the genius of the Western Qin Dynasty, and did not fall behind. He avoided Zhuge Qi's deliberate killing blow.
.This level of cultivation is unique to the descendants of Xi Chu.
For this reason alone, Zhuyu became the popular candidate for Wang Bishouhou this time.
Of course, there are also some rumors saying that Zhu Yu was also seriously injured in the war, and his cultivation was seriously damaged. It is estimated that it will be difficult to display his strength above Wang Bi.
And this kind of statement also makes those princes who are eyeing you even more eager to take advantage of your illness and kill you.
If Zhu Yu was not Zhu Yu's son, and Zhu Yu sent Ma Sihai and many masters from Long Wei to secretly protect Zhu Yu, Zhu Yu would have probably died a long time ago and died an untimely death.
So, in a sense, it's good that Zhu Yu got the limelight, but in this battle, he actually suffered the biggest loss.
Golden Guard Station. There are only a few dozen people left in the 500-person camp. The camp is deserted and deserted.
In the military tent in the camp, Zhu Yu was sitting cross-legged in the tent, practicing quietly.
Opposite him, a one-legged old man in quail clothes stared at him with bright eyes, his gray beard was blowing high, and he said in a stern voice: "Zhu Yu, Xiang Yuan's life is now entirely in your hands. His golden elixir is broken."
, you can only protect your life with elixirs.
The only chance now is that you win the Wentian bet. The "Asking Heaven" secretly practiced by him will work, allowing his broken golden elixir to directly turn into an infant, thus bringing him back to life. This is the only way to save his life.
But you... you... are still such a lump of elm wood, rotten wood that cannot be carved, you want me to... make me mad to death?"
Zhuyu closed his eyes tightly, his expression remained unchanged. There were now three "Innocent Butterflies" in his sea of consciousness. These three Innocent Butterflies were his biggest trump cards.
Xiang Yuan practiced "Asking Heaven's Will", and his "Asking Heaven Bet" was directly linked to him, so Zhu Yu had to win the ten-year bet, and Zhu Yu knew this very well.
But this one-legged old guy is really noisy.
For more than a month, he stayed in the military tent in the Golden Guard every day, wishing that he could pull out the squid's cultivation in one day.
It can be seen that this old guy is a little crazy. All his life-long knowledge of pouring beans through bamboo tubes has been passed on to Zhuyu, except that he did not take off his head to share with Zhuyu.
Zhu Yu originally wanted to use the "Innocent Butterfly" to improve his cultivation, but when he encountered such cramming teachings, how could he have the chance to use it?
Faced with such guidance, the "bluntness" in Zhuyu's qualifications played a leading role.
No matter how Xuanhuang Qi teaches him, Zhu Yu just can't practice it, he can't master the tricks, he can't understand the essence of the sword skills. Xuanhuang Qi is an impatient person, and the more he is taught, the more angry and crazy he becomes.
Especially when he saw Zhu Yu's unhurried and unhurried look, he became even more angry.
Now the army praises Zhu Yu too much. They praise him as the second sub-god and the second general of Zhenxi. They say that his cultivation is so extraordinary and unfathomable.
But Xuanhuang Qi has now seen with his own eyes that Zhuyu is only at the middle stage of Wanshou at most.
With his strength, let alone completing the ten-year bet, even if he participates in this king's competition, there will be no chance.
If Wang Bi doesn't get the longevity title, Xuan Huang Qi can tear off his old face and don't want it anymore.
However, if the ten-year bet could not be completed, Xiang Yuan was hopeless. The secret techniques that Xuan Huang had practiced for more than seven years were all in vain because of Xiang Yuan's demise.
The next time the catastrophe comes, Xuanhuang Qi will probably have to fight back to the realm of god transformation.
The path to immortality is difficult, and if you don't advance, you will retreat. Faced with such a desperate situation, how can Xuanhuang Qi not go crazy?
"Old guy, please stop arguing! Can't you see that I am studying the exercises seriously? How can I practice quietly when you are making noise like this?" Zhu Yu frowned.
"You...you..." Xuanhuang pointed at Zhuyu with seven fingers, his whole body shaking with anger. He really had the urge to slap the kid in front of him to death.
But reason told him not to do this, and he couldn't give up even if there was a chance. But is there any hope for Zhuyu?
He has no hope at all!
"Just practice hard. I'm telling you, if you don't complete the ten-year bet, you will die. It's a waste of resources for a loser like you to hang out in the fairy world. Hey!" Xuanhuang Qi left with a flourish and turned around.
: "I'll come back tomorrow to see if you can make any progress in "Golden Cicada Sword Art"."
Zhu Yu suddenly opened his eyes and almost begged: "Old man, can you stop coming and wait three to five days before coming again?"
Xuanhuang Qidu suddenly paused with his legs on the ground and said angrily: "Fart, I come here every day to teach you how to practice, but you are still making such progress. I have been slowing down for a few days, but you still don't get back more and more as you practice?"
Zhu Yu clasped his hands in his fists and said: "Old man, I beg you. You want to save the Third Prince, and I also want to save the Third Prince. But you come here every day to interfere with my cultivation. Can we save the Third Prince?"
Old guy, of course I know what I'm talking about, so why don't you just stop nagging in my ears every day?"
"How presumptuous! What are you kidding? I'm interfering with your practice by giving you instructions every day? You...you...don't make sense!"
Zhu Yu shook his head and said: "I won't tell you anymore, come if you like. The worst is that it will break the pot. I told you, you don't understand the world of genius, you old guy just don't believe it. You said I'm a loser."
Chai, who did it with five hundred golden guards and three thousand Kui beast cavalry?
Damn it, everyone in the Western and Chu armies says I'm a hero, but you're the only one who says I'm a loser.
If you want me to perform well, please just leave me alone, okay? Don’t you understand the truth here?"
Zhu Yu was really angry.
Xuanhuang Qi was anxious, and he was even more anxious.
However, one "Innocent Butterfly" has the effect of almost three days. Zhu Yu can use one Innocent Butterfly to return to his true body for three days. Three days of time is so precious. Zhu Yu must spend every minute and every second in cultivation.
.
But this old guy is like a madman, making noise every day, how can Zhuyu not be irritated?
Xuanhuang Qi's eyes went straight when he saw Zhuyu's appearance.
He has lived for more than a thousand years, and what has he not seen in the Chinese world? There are countless geniuses who are eager to lick his feet, hoping to become a disciple of his.
But this was the first time in his life that he encountered someone. He tried his best to point out the other person, but the younger generation found him annoying.
The anger in his heart was simply overwhelming.
But what can he do? Can Zhu Yu kill him? Even if he really wants to offend him, it's not enough. Besides, he has been in contact with Zhu Yu for so long and understands Zhu Yu's personality.
This boy's cultivation aptitude is indeed poor, but his temper is just like Zhu Xiazi's, and he is very fiery.
He is also extremely stubborn and will really piss him off. He is a master who is not afraid of death.
"Okay, okay! I'll let you stay alone for three days. I'll come back in three days!" Xuanhuang Qi turned around with a roll of his sleeves and walked out of the tent angrily.
When he walked out of the tent, he heard Zhu Yu inside the tent muttering: "What a fucking cheap old man. You deserve to be scolded. Do you know that you are wrong?"
When Xuanhuang Qiyi heard this, his eyes darkened and he almost fainted.
"Shuzi, Zhuzi cannot be taught, and rotten wood cannot be carved! Xiang Yuan, Xiang Yuan, you have so many choices to choose from, why did you choose such a bastard? Is it really God's will?"
Xuan Huang Qi soared into the sky, feeling sad for a moment.
Thinking of his hard work for nearly a hundred years, and of his hard work guiding Xiang Yuan step by step, and now that Xiang Yuan was dead, he had to rely on a useless bastard like Zhu Yu for a chance of survival, he really burst into tears.
He flew all the way back to the Overlord's military tent in the air, and saw Su Minghe face to face from a distance. Su Minghe came up to him and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Brother Xuanhuang, I see that you are worried, is there something on your mind?"
Xuanhuang Qi's expression turned cold instantly, but inside he felt like crying without tears.
