When he saw those Xuanshi in black armor walking towards them, Zhao Jie felt as if his heart was about to jump into his throat. To be honest, this battle did not last long, but in this
In a short period of time, the ups and downs of the battle were still fresh in his memory. Whether it was the initial defense of these indigenous magicians, the changes in the middle, or the final counterattack, every stage left a deep impression on Zhao Jie.
Zhao Jie is not a genius, especially in a place like Taichu City where monsters are infested. He is even more ordinary, but being sent out to participate in the expedition is enough to prove that he is definitely not mediocre. This battle alone has made him understand that these indigenous mysterious people
The soldiers were definitely not as easy to deal with as he thought, or to be fair, these people already made him feel intimidated.
"General, our Li Shuai asked you if you have had enough of watching the show. If you are interested, how about we come down and have a chat?" After getting along with Li Badao for a while, Lin Hui occasionally likes to make a few jokes. This big victory is even more exciting.
It made him subconsciously not have a bad attitude toward these mysterious scholars of unknown origin.
Zhao Jie stared blankly at the black men in front of him. There were only fifty of them, but they were not timid at all when facing the five hundred of them. Of course, their confidence also came from their companions not far away.
Because of this, Zhao Jie hesitated for a while and then gritted his teeth and said: "You guys wait for me here, I'll come and go."
"General, no."
"Be careful of fraud!"
Hearing Zhao Jie's words, the Xuanshi beside him shouted in worry. Zhao Jie smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "What else can we do if we don't go away? Can we fight or run away from those people?"
Can you pass it? Since they can send people over to invite us over, it proves that there is still something to discuss. When dealing with these people, try not to do anything when it is possible to discuss..."
Zhao Jie said all this with a look of helplessness on his face, and walked down the mountain with only a dozen guards. It was not because he was too big, but because he was very clear about the gap in combat power between the enemy and us. This was not based on personal combat power.
The gap is an imbalance in the overall combat power. Once the war starts, it is not impossible for the opponent to slaughter them with the morale after a great victory. But having said that, they still have to bleed a lot if they want to win, so the opponent
Only the commander-in-chief wants to talk about it. Since we can talk about it, it is best to talk about it.
But when Zhao Jie saw the Li Shuai the other party was talking about, he was completely stunned.
"Li Ba Dao?" Zhao Jie looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief.
"Huh? Do you recognize me?" Li Badao looked at the young man in front of him with the same curiosity. Lin Hui on the side immediately softened his attitude when he saw that the other party called Li Shuai's name.
"When the domineering young master killed Shen Lian in front of the imperial city gate, I had the chance to see the domineering young master before I left with the Xuanshi of the Zhao family." Zhao Jie said politely, with a hint of flattery in his tone.
The situation is stronger than the person!
Looking at the young general in front of him, his cultivation level is also at the third level of the Huang rank, even better than Lin Hui. Moreover, Li Badao knows very well that as a profound scholar of Luotian Realm and able to lead the team on an expedition, his life and soul must be absolute.
There are three holy marks, no matter how bad it is, it will have to be three first-level holy marks. If he is fighting alone, it should not be difficult for him to defeat Lin Hui, and if he wants to win against him, he will not have to fight.
Not possible.
In Taichu City, Shen Lian may have a higher status than Zhao Jie. After all, the Shen family is a first-class family, and Shen Lian is the proud son of a big family. But if all identities are put aside, a third-level Huang-level cultivator Therefore, Zhao Jie's combat power is really not much weaker than that of Shen Lian, who is in the first level of Huangjie. Li Badao can naturally understand this problem, so seeing Zhao Jie's flattering look, he can't help but feel a little complicated.
"What's your surname, general?" Li Badao interrupted his flattery with a smile.
"My name is Zhao Jie."
"Zhao Jie? Zhao family?" Li Badao frowned and thought for a while, then asked: "Is it the Zhao family in Rongfu Lane?"
"Master, do you know about our Zhao family?" Zhao Jie was particularly excited when he heard Li Ba'ao's words. He was not even pretending now. The status of the Zhao family and the Li family were too different. Although the first-class family and the third-class family seemed to be different, there was no difference. Too many. After all, there are fourth-class aristocratic families in Taichu City, and there are also low-class families. But if you want to step from the third class to the first class, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as ascending to the sky. Now I see Li Badao just thinking for a moment Thinking of the Zhao family, Zhao Jie couldn't help but feel a little excited.
It can be said that Li Ba Dao knew about the Zhao family by accident, but it was not accidental. In his "last life", he could only practice secretly, so Li Ba Dao had too much time to not only study the magic circle, but also study things in the family. At that time, he After all, he had the fantasy of being able to take over the family affairs one day, so he naturally understood the operation of the Li family, and maybe his brain was really bright. After remembering many things, it was difficult to forget them.
The Zhao family in Rongfu Lane is only a third-class family, but it has many connections with the Li family. Naturally, it is not the turn of a third-class family to jointly develop Yuanjie, but they still have many contacts in business. , the head of the Zhao family is a pretty good alchemist. The Shocking Pill produced by the Zhao family is a very good low-level healing elixir. This elixir is very suitable for low-level magicians who are on an expedition to the Yuan Realm, so it is very popular. Very widely, the Li family can be considered one of the Zhao family's major patrons, so Li Badao can naturally remember this family.
"How many Shocking Pills did you bring? Sell a batch to me first. My people need to be well rewarded." Li Badao said with a gentle smile.
Hearing these words, Zhao Jie was happier than hearing any praise. There was nothing happier than hearing others recognize his signature elixir in a strange Yuan Realm. Zhao Jie thought about it all Not wanting to tear off a storage bag from his body, he stepped forward and handed it to Li Ba Dao, and said happily: "There are a thousand soul-shaking pills here. Since Master Ba Dao likes them, these can be regarded as my filial piety to him."
"Brother Zhao, there's no need to be like this. I'm actually not as violent as you think." Li Badao really couldn't stand Zhao Jie's attitude. When he accepted the Shocking Pill, he immediately took out a thousand high-grade Xuan Jing and forced it into Zhao Jie. In his hand, the price of a Shocking Pill is one hundred low-grade Xuan Crystals, and it is also a high-grade Xuan Crystal. The price he gave is very fair, so that Zhao Jie dares to accept these Xuan Crystals.
"As expected of the Zhao family, it's quite troublesome to buy such good things in large quantities in Taichu City." Li Badao sighed with a smile, then handed the storage bag to Lin Hui, gesturing for him to distribute the Shocking Pills. Lin Hui was also used to Li Ba Dao's generosity and was not polite to Li Shuai. He took the Soul-shaking Pill and distributed it to his subordinates. The Xuanshi of the Demon Hunter Army were also unpretentious. After receiving the Shocking Pill, they just handed it over casually. Thanks.
Zhao Jie looked at everything in front of him with complicated thoughts. To be honest, the situation in front of him was indeed beyond his expectation, or he did not expect to encounter such a thing. Regarding the rumors about Li Ba Dao, Zhao Jie actually knew There are really very few, and basically I only learned about it accidentally before leaving. First, I learned that there was a young genius in the Li family, who became a Shengxuan Master at the age of only fifteen, and then he became a third-level orange-level cultivator in front of the imperial city gate. In order to kill Shen Lian, who has the first level of yellow level cultivation.
What I know more about him is my intuitive impression of that battle. In Zhao Jie's opinion, this is a monster cultivated by the Li family. The Li family was tricked by the Shen family and the Liu family this time, and they were unwilling to do so. Only under certain circumstances did he release this evildoer, kill the young elites cultivated by the Shen and Liu families by surprise, let them bleed, and let this domineering young man shine, and then naturally continue to protect him, waiting for him to be even more shocking in the future. soared into the sky.
But he didn't expect that in the end, the Li family would let this monster-like young man enter the Shenglong battlefield. What he didn't expect was that he would meet him here. Thinking of this, he immediately realized what the indigenous Xuanshi said. It's Li Shuai. Doesn't it mean that this domineering young master was commanding the battle just now? Also, this guy entered the Evergreen Realm on the same day as him, so why did he recruit so many indigenous magicians so quickly?
Does the gap between people have to be so big? Zhao Jie has already begun to roar deep in his heart.
While he was thinking complicatedly, Li Badao interrupted his thoughts: "What are General Zhao's plans next?"
"Ah? Plan?" Zhao Jie suddenly woke up from his thoughts. After hesitating for a long time, he simply said the truth: "To be honest, I just want to find a safe place to hide for three years, and then wait to return to Luoyang." Heaven."
Zhao Jie's answer was unexpected by Li Ba Dao. Lin Hui on the side also opened his mouth in surprise and looked at this guy who came from the same place as Li Shuai with an expression of disbelief.
"General Zhao didn't want to join the war?" Li Badao asked.
Zhao Jie nodded and said with a wry smile: "Since I went out for training, I have only participated in Yuanjie campaigns where the situation has become clear. I have a family army and a stable territory. I won't be too scared to fight such a campaign. But Yuanjie is opening up wasteland. , but I don’t have any experience. More importantly, the situation this time is too complicated. The monsters in this ghost place are scary, and the fighting power of the indigenous black men seems to be too strong, so it is best for me to hide honestly. In fact, it is best for me to hide. Even if the elders in the family knew what I was doing, they wouldn't say anything. After all, more than one first-class family has come in this time, right?"
"Well, what you said is not unreasonable." Listening to Zhao Jie's sincere answer, Li Badao nodded equally seriously, without any look of disdain. Although Zhao Jie is a little timid, it is not without merit. What's more, at least he thought about escaping with all his men instead of hiding alone, which is commendable.
And seeing that he still lets his men hide in the distance and dares to negotiate with only a dozen guards, this means that this young general of the Zhao family is not a real coward.
Thinking of this, Li Badao said to Zhao Jie sincerely: "General Zhao, if I can give you a chance to make you and your men stronger, are you willing to help me?"
