Su Yu walked up to Wei Lianyi and asked respectfully.
"Um."
Wei Lianyi glanced at him and then said: "For this year's summer hunt, my father has made certain changes to the rules."
"In the past, everyone would go into the Qingtan Monster Forest to hunt alone to determine the final leader."
"This year, His Majesty has changed the rules so that everyone who participates in the summer hunt can find a companion to participate in the summer hunt together."
"In the Zhenwu Division, apart from me, your cultivation level is the highest, so in today's summer hunt, you will cooperate with me to participate in the summer hunt."
After hearing what Wei Lianyi said, Su Yu couldn't help but be startled.
Let yourself cooperate with her to participate in the summer hunt?
Although he now has a perfect Yu Leap Realm cultivation level, he has not learned any powerful martial arts yet.
As for using the martial arts skills that I have practiced in the past, what should I do if she becomes suspicious?
At this moment, Su Yu didn't know that he had already exposed his secret because of Lu Ze.
Su Yugong said: "Sir, although I have achieved the cultivation level of Yu Leap Realm now, I have not practiced any martial arts skills. I am afraid it will delay your ranking in this summer hunting."
Hearing Su Yu's words, Wei Lianyi's pretty face couldn't help but become a little weird.
Do you really think I don’t know how much strength you have?
Back then, he single-handedly blocked the all-out attack of Martial King Wei Yan. This strength was probably something that many people in the Hidden Dragon Realm couldn't do, right?
"It doesn't matter."
Wei Lianyi looked at him deeply, and then said calmly: "This time, we are not trying to compete for the top spot, just do our best."
Hearing Wei Lianyi's words, Su Yu sighed lightly, it seemed that participating in this summer hunt was inevitable.
As for what Wei Lianyi said about not competing for the top spot, she probably doesn't believe it herself.
He had just learned from Liang Yuxuan that the Emperor's Sword was an important token passed down from the emperor to the next emperor.
Now that the Wei and Jin Dynasties had taken out this object, they probably also had the idea of choosing the prince through this summer hunt.
If Wei Lianyi has thoughts about the throne, he will definitely not miss this opportunity in vain.
What puzzled him was why Wei Lianyi came to him.
Even though he has attained the perfect level of Yu Leap Realm, he still cannot exert much strength without practicing any high-grade martial arts.
Since Ling'er was raising his fetus at home, he gave him the Xuanbing Lan Yue to keep with him.
Holding the Moon can be regarded as the most powerful killing move in his hand.
"yes."
Su Yu responded respectfully.
Now that Wei Lianyi has said that he does not seek rankings, it is not easy for him to continue to refuse.
"The summer hunt will start in half an hour, you can prepare first."
After Wei Lianyi finished speaking, he couldn't help but look in the direction of the eldest prince Wei Zongyuan and the second prince Wei Zongyue.
As she expected, both of them chose a warrior with Hidden Dragon Realm cultivation as their companion for this trip.
She frowned slightly. There were warriors from the Hidden Dragon Realm guarding the safety of the two of them. The plan they had discussed with Wu Chen before was probably going to go bankrupt.
What he thought was a God-given opportunity was shattered by Wei and Jin's sudden rule changes. Wei Lianyi was helpless at this result.
However, since there is no way to 'accidentally' kill these two people, we can only temporarily change the plan to fight for the leader of this summer hunt and get the Emperor's Sword!
About half an hour later, all the people participating in this summer hunt gathered at the outer edge of Qingtan Monster Forest.
Su Yu looked at the dense crowd of figures and couldn't help but secretly sighed.
These people were all the children of civil and military officials, and they were all trained as warriors by the officials.
When the Wei and Jin Dynasties temporarily changed the rules, almost all of these people called a family minister from the Yuyue Realm as a guard, and there was even a lack of warriors from the Qianlong Realm to participate in this summer hunt.
"Wanting to be the leader of this summer hunt is probably not an easy task."
Su Yu couldn't help but curse in his heart.
At this moment, he could only pray that Wei Lianyi would be as good as he said and focus on participating instead of competing for the top spot.
"Duang!"
As a gong was sounded, everyone participating in the summer hunt was shocked, and then they galloped towards the Qingtan Monster Forest.
"Let's go!"
Wei Lianyi glanced at Su Yu, and then rode towards the Qingtan Monster Forest, with Su Yu riding closely behind.
If you look down from the sky, the people participating in the summer hunt this time are pouring into the Qingtan Monster Forest like locusts passing through, and then running in all directions of the forest.
In the blink of an eye, everyone who participated in the summer hunt had disappeared outside the Qingtan Monster Forest, and the civil and military officials also returned to their tents to rest.
This summer hunting time will be limited to when the sun goes down.
In other words, which team has hunted the most monsters before the sun goes down, the higher the level, the leader will be determined after comprehensive scoring.
For those who participate in the summer hunt, in order to show fairness, they need to return to the camp before the sun goes down. Those who do not return before the sun goes down will be deemed to have given up the ranking of the summer hunt.
"How did things go?"
At the outer edge of the Qingtan Monster Forest, Wu Chen withdrew his gaze and looked at Lu Ze, who was standing beside him with his head bowed.
Lu Ze said respectfully: "Master, I have placed a total of thirty sixth-level monsters in the forest, and two fifth-level monsters."
In order to capture these two fifth-level monsters, hundreds of thousands of yuan crystals were spent on the trap.
Harassing him day and night, and finally exhausting him, he was able to capture him alive.
Two fifth-level monsters?
Hearing this, Wu Chen had a bad smile on his lips and murmured: "It seems that this year's summer hunt will be very fun."
So many high-level monsters have been released into the monster forest, and there are even fifth-level monsters that are comparable to the Hidden Dragon Realm.
The people participating in this summer hunt were mainly the pampered young master.
These people have become warriors and have never experienced a life-and-death fight. Even if they have good cultivation, the combat power they can display is very limited.
Facing these high-grade monsters now, these pampered young men undoubtedly add too much danger.
"Master, should we send someone to remind the third princess?"
Lu Ze frowned slightly and said respectfully: "I just saw that the third princess seemed to have asked Master Su to be her companion for this summer hunt."
"We didn't tell her that a fifth-level monster was placed in the forest. If the third princess accidentally encounters it, her life may be in danger."
Wu Chen shook his head and chuckled: "She has the Earth Soldier Phoenix Dance Bracelet in her hand. Even if she encounters a fifth-level monster, she can escape with her life."
The news that Wei Lianyi was robbed of the phoenix bracelet by Su Yu was not known to outsiders.
And when the phoenix bracelet was taken away by Wei Lianyi, Wu Chen would naturally think that the phoenix bracelet was still in her hand.
With the presence of this ground soldier, the safety of Wei Lianyi and Su Yu is sufficiently guaranteed.
The worry on Lu Ze's face remained unabated.
After he killed his enemy, he was rescued by the mysterious man who had helped the Zhenwu Division assess the Yanzhou rebellion.
Later, in order to clear his grievances, Su Yu investigated the old files, which he had learned from Wei Lianyi half a month ago.
Now that he saw Su Yu participating in this summer hunt, he couldn't help but feel anxious.
If the monster he put in eventually caused Su Yu to die inside, he would probably have trouble sleeping and eating for the rest of his life.
But now that the summer hunt has begun, there is no turning back.
He could only secretly pray that Su Yu would not go deep into the Qingtan Monster Forest and avoid encountering a fifth-level monster.
When Su Yu followed Wei Lianyi into the Qingtan Monster Forest, his heart couldn't help but thump.
Because Wei Lianyi never thought of staying on the outside, but rode his horse straight into the depths of the forest.
The number and grade of monsters that live in the depths of the monster forest are naturally not comparable to those in the outer reaches of the forest.
Wei Lianyi is obviously interested in winning the first prize, otherwise if participation is really important, there is no need to go deep into the monster forest and take risks.
But now that we have entered the monster forest, we can only take one step at a time.
Anyway, I have returned the phoenix bracelet to this girl. Even if I encounter any danger, at least I can still run away.
Without saying a word, Wei Lianyi rode his horse ahead, heading all the way into the depths of the Monster Forest.
About two hours later, the two of them traveled more than ten miles and finally entered the depths of the Qingtan Monster Forest.
Along the way, we also encountered several seventh-level monsters, but they were all killed by Wei Lianyi in one blow, and then they swept deeper into the area without stopping at all.
As for these hunted monsters, they only need to cut off their ears and monster crystals as tokens. As for the corpses of the monsters, they can be placed in a conspicuous place, and relevant people will naturally bring them back to the camp. If
If the body of the monster cannot be found, the ears and crystals of the monster will be used as the standard.
From time to time, the roars of monsters could be heard in my ears. It was obvious that the people participating in the summer hunt had disturbed the monsters living in various parts of the forest, and the monsters made warning sounds.
Su Yu's gaze seemed a little solemn, and he shrouded his consciousness in a fifty-foot radius, observing every move around him. Once any movement occurred, he could react quickly.
He has discovered sixth-level monsters along the way, and sixth-level monsters are monsters that are comparable to Yulei realm warriors.
No one knows whether there are fifth-level monsters in the Qingtan Monster Forest.
As Wei Lianyi's teammate, he must be cautious.
If something unexpected happened to Wei Lianyi, how would Wei Jin deal with him?
"Qiang!"
Wei Lianyi jumped up, took out the sword in his hand, and once again chopped off the head of a seventh-level golden-antlered deer. The rich smell of blood suddenly filled the air.
Su Yu skillfully stepped forward, cut off the golden-horned deer's ears, then took out the demon crystal, and then made corresponding marks on the golden-horned deer's body.
Wei Lianyi sat quietly on the horse and watched Su Yu deal with these matters.
"Sir, shall we go?"
After all this was dealt with, Su Yu turned back and asked tentatively.
Wei Lianyi shook his head and said: "No, this is already the depths of the monster forest. There is no point in continuing to walk in."
"We'll wait here."
When Su Yu heard this, he immediately understood her plan.
This is obviously an attempt to use the bloody scent of the golden-horned deer to attract the surrounding monsters, and then catch them all in one fell swoop.
Su Yu frowned slightly, this girl is too trusting, isn't she?
Her true cultivation level is only that of a perfect Yu Leap realm, so how dare she have such a bold idea?
Whenever three sixth-level monsters come, and she doesn't use Jun Lintian's heaven-level martial arts, and he doesn't show his true cultivation, the two of them can only turn around and run away.
But once she uses this heaven-level martial skill, she will enter a period of weakness.
At that time, how should we deal with this embarrassing situation?
In the depths of this forest filled with monsters and monsters, if you want to wait and catch fish, you must have absolutely crushing strength.
If the strength is insufficient, the positions of hunter and prey will be reversed.
"What on earth is this bitch thinking? Are you looking for death?"
Su Yu cursed in his heart, and then persuaded him with a normal expression: "Sir, isn't it too dangerous to do this?"
"If the carcass of the golden-horned deer attracts three sixth-level monsters to come and look for food, I'm afraid it will pose a certain threat to you."
He didn't dare to say anything too ugly.
After all, Wei Lianyi is his leader. Even if the leader's decision is wrong, he must follow the leader's wishes, maintain the leader's face, and then express his opinions tactfully.
"It doesn't matter."
Wei Lianyi glanced at him and said calmly: "I have my own plan."
She wanted to use the monster beasts that came to look for food to let Su Yu reveal his true strength at the critical moment, and then she could reveal his identity.
Then she can blackmail him into helping her, kill as many monsters as possible, and capture the leader of this summer hunt!
"Okay, then I want to see what your plan is."
Su Yu cursed in his heart, but said nothing more.
The two of them lay dormant in the dark, waiting for the surrounding monsters to smell the blood and come looking for food.
Su Yu was already prepared, that is, when he encountered multiple sixth-level monsters coming, he would definitely run away without looking back.
Anyway, this girl has a phoenix bracelet in her hand, which can completely drive the phoenix bracelet to shuttle through the forest, so she doesn't need to worry about safety.
About a stick of incense passed, and the two finally crouched down to the first sixth-level monster of the day, the giant tooth spider.
The giant tooth spider is several feet tall and more than ten feet long. Its most prominent feature is the huge teeth in its mouth, which makes people have no doubt that it can bite off a person's head in one bite.
"It's your turn to take action, I will support you from the side!"
Wei Lianyi, who was dormant in the dark, glanced at Su Yu and then gave instructions.
After hearing Wei Lianyi's instructions, Su Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
He was still curious before, why Wei Lianyi did it personally every time.
If you can crush a low-grade monster, you can take action yourself. Now when you encounter a high-grade monster, let him take action?
"Please be a human being?"
Su Yu cursed in his heart that these women had no martial ethics, but the movements of his hands were not slow, and the vitality in his body was continuously poured into the Moon-Langing Knife.
Looking at this moon-holding knife, Wei Lianyi's pretty face couldn't help but be startled.
I really didn't expect that this moon-holding knife would go around and appear in front of me again.
She had obtained the moon-holding sword from Master Chun in the Nian organization.
Because Mrs. Chun was secretly provided by Su Yu as someone else, she paid 100,000 Yuan Crystal for this moon sword.
Subsequently, Su Yu used the auction to auction off the moon-holding sword, and it was acquired by Wu Ling.
What he didn't expect was that Wu Ling would give Su Yu this moon-carrying knife for self-defense.
Maybe Ling'er himself didn't know that this moon-holding knife was put up for auction by Su Yu, right?
"Today, I will completely remove the mask from your face!"
Wei Lianyi put away her thoughts, glanced at Su Yu, and thought to herself.
When Su Yu poured enough vitality into the Moon-Raising Sword, the Moon-Raising Saber made a clanging sound.
Then Su Yu held the moon-holding knife and slashed it towards the giant-toothed spider in the void, and a blade like the waning moon shot towards the giant-toothed spider.
"Bang!"
The giant tooth spider was feasting, and Su Yu made a sneak attack.
Dao Gang slashed the giant tooth spider's body with almost no accident, making a muffled sound, and green blood burst out like raindrops.
"Hiss~"
Under the severe pain, the giant tooth spider neighed and looked at Su Yu who was dormant not far away.
After seeing the person who injured it, the giant tooth spider's eight spider legs turned into afterimages and stomped on the ground, heading straight for Su Yu, and were already ten feet away from Su Yu in the blink of an eye.
Su Yu couldn't help but be startled, why did Wei Lianyi follow up after he agreed to attack?
"grown ups?!"
When Su Yu looked back, Wei Lianyi had already ran more than ten feet away.
Su Yu's face twitched fiercely, these girls really don't have martial ethics.
At the moment when the giant tooth spider sprayed out its silk web to wrap around itself, Su Yu had already activated the White Jade Crown.
The whole body of the white jade crown shook, and a shield of vitality with ripples of water covered him inside.
After blocking the giant tooth spider's attack, Su Yu also retreated and flew straight in the direction where Wei Lianyi was running.
After running for several miles and the giant tooth spider did not continue to pursue him, Su Yu finally saw Wei Lianyi on the branches of a big tree with his hands folded across his chest, just in time to look at him.
Seeing her look like this, Su Yu's heart sank.
If on the way here, he was still holding on to some luck, thinking that Wei Lianyi had not discovered his identity.
But now looking at Wei Lianyi's expression, he had already realized that the other party probably had evidence that he was that person.
Otherwise, with Wei Lianyi's temperament, it would be impossible for him to let him attract the hatred of the giant tooth spider, while he would escape from the battlefield.
Both of them are at the Fish Leap Realm, so it may take a lot of effort to kill the Giant Tooth Spider together, but they won't end up running away as soon as they meet each other.
Wei Lianyi's move was already a disguised attack on him.
Su Yu stopped, looked up at her, then looked like he was out of breath, and said with a wry smile: "Sir, I just used the mysterious weapon in my hand to severely damage the giant tooth spider, why did you run away?"
"With your strength, my lord, it is not difficult to kill the Giant Tooth Spider."
Seeing that Su Yu was still pretending not to know anything, Wei Lianyi looked at him condescendingly and said lightly: "Su Yu, how long do you want to pretend?"
Su Yu's heart skipped a beat.
Where exactly was he exposed?
He pretended to be confused and said doubtfully: "Sir, what are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean?"
Seeing that Su Yu still didn't admit it, Wei Lianyi couldn't help but snorted coldly.
If Lu Ze hadn't told her Guo Yuantao's secret, she might have been deceived by this guy's acting skills at the moment. Could it be that she had made a mistake?
But after knowing Guo Yuantao's secret, she was certain that that guy was him!
"Su Yu, do you still want to continue to be tough?"
Wei Lianyi said calmly: "You are that person!"
"I met Lu Ze half a month ago!"
"You got Guo Yuantao's inheritance, and the scene you directed in Longxuling was just to create the illusion of death and clear my suspicion of you."
"But despite all your calculations, I'm afraid you didn't expect that I would meet Lu Ze, right?"
"I have to say that you are indeed very smart. I asked Lin Canglan, one of the hundred households under your command, before. I am afraid that the person who came here is you who replaced Lin Canglan in disguise, right?"
How could she not understand at this time that the reason she summoned Lin Canglan for questioning was to inquire about the Guo Yuantao case.
But the situation described by Lin Canglan was completely different from that of Lu Ze.
From this, it can be seen that Lin Canglan was most likely the result of Su Yu's disguise, because he realized that he was investigating him, saw that he summoned Lin Canglan, and then used the disguise technique to replace him in response to his inquiries.
Otherwise, when he summoned Lin Canglan and learned from Lin Canglan the secret of Guo Yuantao's ability to create clones, he would have been sure that that person was Su Yu!
When Su Yu heard the name Lu Ze, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
The co-authorship was not exposed by accident, but by Lu Ze
"Lu Ze, Lu Ze, I saved your life, but you stabbed me in the back."
Su Yu cursed in his heart, but did not continue to pretend.
He raised his head and looked at Wei Lianyi calmly, and chuckled: "I really didn't expect that I would be exposed in this way."
"Yes, I am that person!"
"But so what?"
"I did steal a lot of good things from you before."
"But compared to the two times I saved you, I also put down King Wu's rebellion and helped you ascend to the position of governor."
"What I took from you can be said to be insignificant compared to what I helped you get, right?"
"If it weren't for me, would you have a chance to stand here and talk to me?"
"Or do you want to repay kindness with hatred?"
"I won't hide it from you. Now, even if you use the heaven-level secret skill of King Lin Tianxia to enter the soul palace realm, you are not necessarily my opponent!"
"On the contrary, it's me. It's almost easy to kill you now!"
"How about you and I each take a step back, wipe out all the previous grievances, and never touch the river again?"
Wei Lianyi looked at him with a complicated face and said slowly: "Not so."
Hearing Wei Lianyi's words, Su Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he said: "Then what do you want?"
Wei Lianyi looked at him and said word by word: "I want you to help me become emperor!"
Su Yu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "You are a girl, it is too difficult to become a prince, and you have two brothers coveting the throne. I really don't think you have the chance to become emperor."
"Besides, have you ever thought about the benefits of being an emperor?"
Wei Lianyi said lightly: "Only as an emperor can I control my own life, otherwise I will become a vassal of others. This is something I would rather die than tolerate!"
Su Yu was startled when he heard this. It turned out that Wei Lianyi became emperor because he did not want others to influence his destiny.
But it's right to think about it. The main function of a princess is nothing more than for the emperor to win over important officials or to make a marriage.
If Wei Lianyi doesn't want to take these two paths, he can only become emperor.
Otherwise, once the next emperor comes to power, Wei Lianyi will definitely be maximized by the new emperor.
"I want you to give me an answer now, whether you agree to the conditions I proposed or not!"
Wei Lianyi said lightly: "Otherwise, the secret of how you can create a clone, and the secret of how you have achieved such a level of cultivation in just one year, will be revealed to the world!"
"You have tried so hard to hide your secrets, but you probably don't want these secrets to be made public, right?"
Su Yu shook his head, and then chuckled: "Rather than helping you become emperor, I might as well kill you, so that the secrets in me can still be hidden."
Wei Lianyi said calmly: "Then can you kill the killer?"
"You and I have been married before. Considering that you can redeem yourself for the courtesan of the Jiaofang Division, I really can't imagine that a lustful and affectionate guy would kill me."
When Su Yu heard this, his face couldn't help but look a little strange.
It feels really weird for a woman to threaten herself in this way.
He thought about it carefully and then said: "It's not impossible for me to agree to your conditions, but you have to come up with the corresponding chips."
Wei Lianyi's pretty face was startled, and then she said: "What do you want?"
Su Yu chuckled and said: "You!"
Su Yu's short words made Wei Lianyi's pretty face suddenly heat up, and her whole body felt as if there were insects and ants crawling around.
She couldn't help but think of everything that happened in the Broken Soul Forest.
