Shang Dongqing looks like he is in his early twenties, not much older than Song Zheng, but when he speaks, he sounds old, at least several hundred years old.
"Song Zheng, someone must have said a lot of nonsense to you, but we are here to tell you: Why should we, the dignified knights, hide under others? The four of us have decided not to accept solicitation from any force.
We form a group of our own, which we call the 'Noble Alliance', taking care of each other and advancing and retreating together.
Skyfire selects people, so we have our knights. But who knows what the purpose of Skyfire is? Does it have to choose one person? In my opinion, not necessarily. The four of us have reached an agreement, and it depends on your decision.
.”
The four members of the Noble Alliance gave their explanations, but did not immediately force Song Zheng to express his position.
After sending the four people away, Shi Yi and others were completely at a loss: what the three parties said seemed to make sense. They were all speculating on Tianhuo with completely insufficient information, so there were many possibilities.
Zhou Kou asked again: "Scholar, who should you choose?"
Song Zheng was extremely troubled: "I won't choose anyone!"
"Huh?" Everyone was surprised this time, and Song Zheng breathed a sigh of relief: "We'll take a look at the situation after the next imperial edict. Now, if we are making random guesses about Tianhuo's intentions, I'm afraid they will all get it wrong, and it will harm us instead."
The four of them thought for a moment, and Shi Yi was the first to nod: "That's fine, even if we wait for the price. If we meet in the imperial edict, as long as it is not a life and death conflict, they will take some care of us in order to win over the scholar."
Wang Jiu nodded repeatedly: "That's right."
Zhou Kou turned his head and objected to Shi Yi out of habit: "You are a treacherous old man." However, he did not object to Song Zheng's decision, so the matter was settled.
…
Most people think that there are only five knights, but in fact there is one more. It is outside Huangtai Castle, in Tianduan Canyon.
Batu swam out of the deep pool, and the water slid past both sides of its body silently. Its scales gradually disappeared under its skin as it emerged from the water. Its skin looked like the skin of a lizard.
It is the beloved general of Prince Yanshang, but no one in the entire army knows that it is actually the illegitimate son of Prince Yanshang. It has the blood of the Arowana clan, and in addition, the other half comes from the mother's blood, which is Shou.
Palace demon.
The Gonggong Demon is a weapons master in the Seven Kills, a master of close combat, and is the best candidate for personal protection. Its mother is the personal maid of the Gonggong Demon clan dedicated to Prince Yanshang.
Although his appearance and skills were very good, his status was low. Prince Yanshang still had a conscience after taking away its mother, and arranged a place for them. When Batu grew up, he took him with him to cultivate him, but he couldn't give it to him.
It has a title - the princess who hates the prince is known to be a jealous wife.
In the last imperial edict, there were very few monsters who survived, but Batu sneaked back into the former palace of Prince Yanshang, stole hundreds of groups of spirit demon flames that Prince Yanshang had hidden, and distributed them to those who were loyal to him.
A group of subordinates.
It became the only knight of the demon clan.
There is an "Eternal Ice Spring" under the cold pool. It uses this place to practice every day and gets twice the result with half the effort. It is also rewarded by heavenly fire. In recent times, its realm has advanced by leaps and bounds.
Hundreds of loyal subordinates set up a small camp not far away. When he returned to the camp, his men had prepared blood food. A living human monk!
Batu walked over. Due to the huge pressure for a long time, there was always an unquenchable bloodthirsty desire in his chest. His tail curled slightly, and a sharp blade came silently in front of him from the dinner plate on the side.
The little human cultivator was only in the realm of thirty burning acupoints. The thirty large acupoints that were lit were all pierced with a long demon fang as thick as a finger! It suppressed all his strength.
He was extremely frightened and watched the palace-gating demon in front of him keep approaching. He screamed in panic and trembled all over.
Batu closed his eyes, put his nose close to the blood food and took a deep sniff. A big smile full of sharp teeth opened up and reached behind his ears: "The soul in fear is the most delicious!"
As soon as the tail was sent, the sharp blade pierced Xue Shi's belly with a pop. He pulled it up and released the internal organs and blood with a splash. Suddenly, the entire camp was filled with a strong smell of blood. Those monsters Stimulated by the smell, his eyes turned dark red and he kept licking his lips.
Blood Food would not die for a while, but it watched Batu selecting among his internal organs. His favorite food was the liver. He cut it off first and chewed it in his mouth.
A demon tribe came forward to report: "Sir, Master Alu has left."
Batu snorted coldly, his mood suddenly became bad, and he stabbed Xue Shi's heart with a knife: "Just leave."
Aru is highly respected among his subordinates. He has repeatedly suggested to him that in the current situation, it should try its best to promote a tacit peace with the human monks in Huangtai Castle and strive to join forces in some imperial edicts, so as to increase the chance of survival. But Batu But he can't change his taste for blood food.
It was considering whether to send his cronies to catch up and give this old guy a good time, when suddenly he felt something in his heart and raised his head to look in the direction of the sky fire.
"Humph, let it live and let it see that without those thieves, I can still lead everyone to survive!"
…
"Who is he?" the cold young monk asked calmly, and the person sitting next to him said again: "Song Zheng."
"Unknown." The young monk said casually and did not want to talk about this person anymore. In this world, there is a kind of person who is called the "prodigy of the times", and he, Wu Shanlu, is this kind of person.
He never felt that he had come to the wrong Huangtai Castle. Yes, in the eyes of others, being controlled by heavenly fire over life and death, experiencing the tempering of imperial edicts again and again, and possibly falling at any time, was completely a disaster, not a chance. But he I do not think so.
He is secretly excited!
If there is an opportunity that can be obtained by any cat or dog, he will disdain it. In his opinion, opportunities also have risks, and Tianhuo is the real big opportunity.
So he joined the Spirit Fire Society without hesitation. But today he heard that Mrs. Jiannan of the Spirit Fire Society actually went to recruit a young monk from the Vein River Realm in person! It's ridiculous.
This powerful Tianzun was not very good either. He couldn't help but look down on Mrs. Jiannan.
The people around him are also unhappy with him. One of the great talents of our time, at the middle stage of Zhiming Realm at the age of 20, is still not as good as a Maihe Realm? Even if he is a knight! Anyone who is truly discerning will know that Wushan Road That's the one who deserves the most attention.
