"The guests at the two tables just left were in a hurry, and they haven't used their chopsticks to eat this dish yet, so we can't waste it." As he said this, Chen Chuantuo stretched out his hand to bring in a few more plates.
"Put it back!" the Great Protector said coldly.
"Ruan Qingzhao, back then you said that we should go our separate ways from now on, so of course I have to keep my promise and not eat your food."
"Chen Chuantuo!"
The Great Protector's jade-like brows were furrowed, and his expression became even more sinister, as if he was about to fight at any moment.
Chen Chuantuo couldn't help but sigh when he saw the sauced beef in his mouth but couldn't eat it, and then silently put it back.
After this experience, Ruan Qingzhao lost his appetite, so he simply put down his chopsticks, set up a soundproof barrier, and started talking about business.
"When you come to our Jidong Kingdom, aren't you afraid that Xu Xianzhi will take over your Xiaoyuan Academy?"
Chen Chuantuo peeled the peanuts and said: "Junior brother Ou Yezi will guard for me for the time being. Xu Xianzhi will not act rashly. What's more, if foreign enemies are invading today, Xu Xianzhi, as a 'contemporary Confucian sage', would do such an unjust act at this time.
, it is inevitable that he will be reviled by others, and he will not do this."
"Why didn't I see you so calm and composed back then?"
"Back then, when we were not strong enough, there was nothing we could do."
Ruan Qingzhao snorted coldly and stopped mentioning the past.
"The Endless Wilderness is attacking the Seven Kingdoms in a massive way. The Holy War Hall is in greatest danger. If you don't go to support them, why are you here in our Far Eastern Kingdom?"
"There are six major sects rushing to support the Holy War Hall. If they are all defeated, I can't change anything. What's more, the descendants of Yinren Town are still here. As an elder, I should take care of them."
"Is that all?"
Ruan Qingzhao stared at him with burning eyes, while Chen Chuantuo fell into silence.

"Withdraw troops!"
On the frontline battlefield, Lu Huahua gave an order and all the soldiers led the army back to camp. In this battle, neither side gained the upper hand, and each lost two thousand men.
At the front, Li Chengqian and Li Chengtao jointly faced off against a master who was holding a golden spear in the Hero's Invasion Realm. The two relied on their body-refining speed in the Void-Breaking Realm to constantly move and pull against each other, making the opponent very frustrated.
The battle was fought very quickly, and soon both sides retreated.
Returning to Fort Archis, Li Chengqian and Li Chengqian began to perform exercises to heal their injuries. Although it was two against one, the opponent's level was always higher than theirs, so it was inevitable that they would be injured.
"Coach, what do you think of the opponent's strength?" Lu Huahua came over and asked.
"It's just the strength of an ordinary hero entering the room, but the opponent's skills and moves are a bit weird. If you don't take a shot from him, you can't tell whether it is a normal move or a killer move."
Hearing this, Lu Huahua was thoughtful. It was indeed difficult to defeat the opponent with their strength alone.
As the advance team, the Lu family is responsible for facing the enemy in the west, while the Ice and Snow Holy Land army is mainly attacking from the north. There are not many masters left on their side. The only ones who can compete with the heroes are Li Chengqian and Li Chengtao.
.
"I wonder how Yi Xifeng is doing over there." Lu Huahua sighed.
"Although Loulan City has fallen, that kid is still a hero, so escaping shouldn't be a problem." Li Chengqian replied.
At this time, Li Chengtao had finished healing his injuries, picked up his sword and headed to another military mansion.
Lu Huahua knew without guessing that she was looking for Li Sansi. After all, Li Sansi was Yi Xifeng's disciple, and in other words, Li Chengtao's disciple. The rule of separated generations does not only apply to direct family members.
…………
Li Sansi was lowering his head to wipe the dried blood stains on his sword, when suddenly a man came to him and patted him on the shoulder.
"Disciple and grandson pay homage to the master." Li Sansi saluted.
Li Chengtao nodded, and then the two of them walked outside the military mansion tacitly. When they came to a corner, they stopped.
"Since your master asked you to learn swordsmanship with me, let me show you your current swordsmanship first."
After hearing the words, Li Sansi walked to an open place, held a long sword and used all the "Thirteen Swords of Cherishing the Wind" he had learned. However, based on his cultivation level, he could only use the "Seven Absolute Swords of Green Bamboo" at most, like
Sword moves such as "Chasing the Wind and Breaking the Shadow" can only be used partially and can only be called the "Shadow Breaking Slash", which is far from the effect of chasing the wind.
"A broken bridge leads to no return!"
Just as Li Sansi was about to execute his last move, Li Chengtao frowned and appeared directly in front of Li Sansi. He pressed his long sword with both fingers and forcibly interrupted the sword move.
"You can't use this last sword with your current level of cultivation. If you force it, it will damage your Rendu and Du meridians. What's more... your mind is unstable."
Li Sansi sheathed his sword and stood up, losing both his vitality and his sharpness. Li Youwei's death still deeply affected him.
Li Chengtao said solemnly: "Don't be blinded by hatred. If you can't calm down and practice swordsmanship, it will only make you go crazy and become a madman who only knows how to kill."
Li Sansi lowered his head and closed his eyes. It was not until a long time later that he said: "Master, my disciples also understand what you said, but I just can't do it. I also thought about letting go of hatred and sharpening my swordsmanship, but my brain doesn't work.
You listen to me and you can't help but think about it. Master, I can't forget..."
…………
Inside the Holy War Hall, Yi Xifeng asked around and found Zhang Yanshi's residence. However, before he could get close, a disciple suddenly appeared and stopped him.
"Does the visitor have any instructions from the elders?"
Yi Xifeng frowned when he heard this and said doubtfully:
"Isn't this Zhang Yanshi's residence? Why do you need the elder's handwriting?"
The disciple did not answer, and directly issued an order to expel the guest, saying: "Since there is no order from the elders, please leave."
After all, this was the territory of the Holy War Hall. As a visitor, Yi Xifeng could not force his way in, so he had to retreat. However, as soon as he turned around, he saw an old man with gray hair walking towards him. The disciple guarding the door saluted immediately when he saw the visitor.
"Elder Zhou."
The gray-haired old man nodded and was about to walk inside, when suddenly a man wearing night clothes appeared in front of him.
"Junior Zhenwu Daodian Yi Xifeng is Zhang Yanshi's old friend from the same village. I heard that he is seriously injured now. Can Elder Zhou let me go in and have a look?"
The gray-haired elder frowned slightly and shot out a golden light without saying a word. Fortunately, Yi Xifeng reacted in time and turned his right palm into a sword and stood in front of his chest, splitting the golden light directly.
Elder Zhou was about to take action again, but Yi Xifeng took the initiative and directly restrained the opponent's left and right hands.
The disciple guarding the door was immediately dumbfounded. Elder Zhou was also a master of the Hero Realm, so why was he suddenly subdued by the young man in front of him?
"I don't seem to have offended Elder Zhou." Yi Xifeng's eyes wrinkled slightly. He couldn't see why the other party would suddenly attack him.
Elder Zhou chuckled and said, "Junior, don't be arrogant."
After saying this, Elder Zhou's body suddenly shone with golden light. The dazzling light made Yi Xifeng subconsciously narrow his eyes. Then he felt his palms loosen and the person in front of him disappeared in an instant.
Yi Xifeng was about to use his moon steps to ascend the dragon and fly into the sky, when suddenly his abdomen started to growl. Then a burst of abdominal pain forced him to exercise for treatment. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the gray-haired old man appeared behind him, and the two of them
A skinny finger touched the back of the fair young man's head.
"Damn it, damn bad luck, the chain slipped at the critical moment!"
Yi Xifeng couldn't help but curse a few words in his heart, but on the surface, he deliberately pretended to be a loser and was dejected. After all, his life was now in the hands of others.
"I'm just here to visit my friends. We have no grievances. Why would Elder Zhou fight against this junior?"
Elder Zhou snorted coldly and said: "Any outsider who enters our Holy War Hall must tell me, how did you, a disciple of Zhenwu Dao Hall, get in?!"
Hearing this, Yi Xifeng breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out to be a misunderstanding.
"Well... I was brought here by your Pope. If you don't believe me, you can ask him."
"pope?"
Elder Zhou frowned slightly, but did not raise any suspicion. It was not a wise move to lie in the name of "Pope" in the Holy War Hall.
"Since His Majesty the Pope brought you here, can you tell me the reason?"
Yi Xifeng did not refuse. After all, there was nothing to hide. Then, he told everything about the attack on the city last night.
"It turns out they are reinforcements from the Zhenwu Dao Palace. I was rude."
Elder Zhou apologized quickly and then invited Yi Xifeng to take a seat in the hall.
"Yi Daoyou is already a strong warrior in the realm of heroes at a young age. He is really talented. With this level of cultivation alone, no one in our Holy War Hall can match him."
After knowing the identity of the other party, Elder Zhou became much more polite.
"I still don't know Elder Zhou's name."
"Haha, I am Zhou Mo, known as Jinguang Venerable, and my old Taoist friend Zhang Yanshi is my disciple."
As he spoke, Elder Zhou opened the door and saw a young man wrapped in bandages lying on the bed, with a strange aura lingering around him. Beside the young man, there was an old man with white eyebrows sitting quietly.
"Zhang Yanshi?"
Yi Xifeng hurried forward to check, and after feeling the veins, he realized how serious Zhang Shishi's injuries were.
The white-browed old man frowned and was about to step forward to stop him, but Zhou Mo shook his head and told him not to worry, so the white-browed old man gave up.
Yi Xifeng closed his eyes and penetrated the opponent's body with a ray of soul.
"The soul is separated from the body? The heroic realm?"
The white-browed old man was a little surprised. He looked like he was only in his twenties, but he actually had the cultivation level of a hero. Could it be that an old guy from a hidden family had changed his appearance?
Not long after, the soul retreated from Zhang Yanshi's body. Yi Xifeng took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, thinking:
"It seems to be more troublesome than expected. What is this strange smell?"
Zhou Mo saw the doubts on Yi Xifeng's face and said, "Zhang Yanshi was injured when he was stationed in Ziluo City. It's unknown who did it. He survived thanks to
Elder Yue."
At this time, the white-browed old man already regarded Yi Xifeng as a peer, so he said politely:
"After being hit by such a vicious move, the old man could only temporarily save his life. In eighty years of practicing medicine, this is the first time I have encountered such an injury."
Just as he was talking, the fair-skinned young man in front of him suddenly took out a red pill with gold patterns from his hand. Just looking at it from a distance, you can feel that this pill is extraordinary.
"Fellow Taoist, what kind of elixir is this?" Elder Bai Meiyue asked in confusion.
"I got it from Yaowang Valley, but I forgot the name." Yi Xifeng shrugged. He wasn't lying. He did forget the name of the elixir. He only remembered that this elixir can heal the Dantian and meridians.
, after all, he took so many elixirs from Li Dongdan at that time, how could he remember so many names.
Elder Yue looked happy when he heard this. Although Yaowang Valley is not one of the eight major sects, its reputation in the world is not low at all. Moreover, Yaowang Valley is very popular and has almost no enemies. It is a rare place in the world.
The pure land of strife.
Since he knew the person in front of him, Elder Yue naturally wanted to introduce him to him so that he could improve his medical skills.
"I didn't expect that my fellow Taoist would interact with Yaowang Valley. I don't know your surname yet."
"Yi Xifeng, Zhang Yanshi's friend."
"Zhang Yanshi's friend?" Elder Yue was stunned for a while. Zhou Mo saw that his old friend had misunderstood, so he quietly pulled him aside and explained through a message. Only then did Elder Yue realize that he had made a mistake.
"Yi Xifeng, no wonder this name is so familiar. It turned out to be Qianji Xia of the Zhenwu Dao Palace. Now he should be called the Venerable. I remember that he and a woman saved Loulan City from the demon Qianyuan.
threaten."
Elder Yue's words awakened Elder Zhou Mo. He remembered that he had sent Zhang Yanshi to defend the city.
Yi Xifeng sent the elixir to Zhang Yanshi's mouth, but at this time, the true energy in Zhang Yanshi's body was scattered and it was difficult to refine the elixir. He had to use the Nine Yang Divine Demon Technique to help refine the elixir.
Three hours later, the fragmented meridians in Zhang Shishi's body began to gradually repair, but because of the strange aura that was blocking it, the treatment process was not going very smoothly.
Yi Xifeng made a prompt decision, not caring about hiding his secret, opened a crack in the Dantian Cave, and directly sucked in the strange white aura.
Soon, Zhang Yanshi's injuries began to recover quickly, and his complexion became rosy. Except for the serious injury to Ren and Du's second pulse, other parts of his body had basically recovered.
Yi Xifeng took a deep breath and took back the Nine Yang Divine Demonic Skill into his body.
Elder Yue and Elder Zhou couldn't help but look happy when they saw Zhang Shishi's recovery from his injuries, but what they were more curious about was, where did that strange white aura go?
"I would like to thank my Taoist friends here. If no Taoist friends come to my rescue, my disciple's name will be in trouble."
After saying that, Elder Zhou Mo was about to bend down and salute. Yi Xifeng quickly helped him up and said:
"Zhang Yanshi is my friend, and doing these things is within the bounds of friendship. There is no need to be polite, elder."
Zhou Mo was about to say something when he heard footsteps coming from outside the house, and then someone shouted:
"Report to Elder Zhou that Loulan City has been lost."
Yi Xifeng's face darkened. He guessed right. The Endless Wilderness was trying to conquer the entire Seven Kingdoms as quickly as possible.
Zhou Mo was very shocked. The alliance of seven sects was defeated, which was far beyond his expectation.
"Loulan City has been lost?! Where is Xiao Yuanfeng and the others?!"
The disciple outside the gate replied: "City Lord Xiao did not want to leave, so he blew himself up in the City Lord's Mansion and died. The others fled from the south gate into the deep forest and are now missing."
