Tianqing City is one of the cities closest to the Northern Wasteland in the Yingtian Empire. The reason why this city was built here is to protect the northern barrier of the Yingtian Empire, Tianbei Pass, together with Tianbei City and Tianquan City.
The three cities all have Five Element Realm powerhouses in charge, so Tianqing, Tianbei, and Tianquan are the three most important cities in the northern part of the Yingtian Empire.
The Five Elements Realm powerhouse who sits in Tianqing City is the Northern Marquis. This Northern Marquis was born in the military. He led the army to repel the barbarian attacks at Tianbei Pass many times, and was awarded the title of Northern Marquis by His Majesty after he made great achievements in battle.
At that time, he was stationed in the north. The person in charge of Tianquan City is the current Marshal Zhenbei of the empire, and Tianbei City is under the responsibility of King Dingbei. However, now that King Dingbei Ying Pinghuan has returned to the imperial capital, Tianbei City is replaced by
Another powerful person from the Five Elements Realm was appointed to take charge.
There is someone secretly in charge of Tianbei City, and Tianquan City is because the Generalissimo Zhenbei is in charge, so the military atmosphere in the city is too strong, which is not a good choice for Ji You's trip to the Northern Wilderness. After some thinking,
Ji You and his party chose to go to Tianqing City first. Before going to the Northern Wilderness, they also needed to collect some information related to the northern barbarians.
"Although Tianqing City is the most common among the three cities in the north, it still gives us the feeling that everyone is a soldier. Almost everyone on this street has a certain level of profound energy cultivation, whether it is a shop waiter or a waiter.
, or the uncles and aunts who sell noodles on the street." Ji You also said softly while walking on the streets of Tianqing City.
Hearing Ji You's words, the three people on the side also nodded. The atmosphere of Tianqing City is indeed different from that of ordinary cities. Tianqing City is one of the cities closest to Beihuang, although some people in the city are like those from the north.
Although it has strong combat power, it will also face the pressure brought by the barbarian invasion, so this city will naturally give people a feeling that all the people are soldiers.
"Tianqing City, Tianbei City, and Tianquan City are the barriers to the north of the empire. If there are no people from these three cities guarding Tianbei Pass, the barbarian invasion will cause great losses to the empire." Evil Sword also said at this moment.
.
"Okay, let's find a restaurant to stay first. We will probably stay in Tianqingcheng for a while." After the words fell, a few people started looking for a place to stay. After finding a place to stay, the four of them
Personally, I divided myself into two groups and went out to collect information. The Evil Sword and Mang Dao were in one group, and Ji You and Bai Lan were in the other group.
"Brother Hu, is that thing that was rumored before true? A group of barbarians appeared north of Tianqing City?" Just as Ji You passed by a tea stall, a voice suddenly came.
In his ears, although the voice of the other party was very low, Ji You could hear it clearly due to his cultivation.
Without waiting for the man who was called Brother Hu to answer, Ji You took Bai Lan directly to a seat not far from those people and said: "Waiter, bring a pot of herbal tea and some food.
"
"okay!"
Just as Ji You and Bai Lan sat down, the man called Brother Hu said: "This is absolutely true. You also know that my brother is the Tianqing City Guard. I heard from him that that group of reckless men are now
Two villages have been massacred, and the scene is simply too horrible to watch. If you let me know where those barbarians are, I will use their heads to pay homage to the innocent villagers of those two villages!"
"That's right, those barbarians deserve to die!" After hearing what the man surnamed Hu said, several other people also nodded.
"Barbarians do deserve to die, but you can't kill them if you say it here." At this moment, Ji You suddenly said, and when the words fell, he raised the tea cup in his hand and took a sip.
After hearing Ji You's words, the people who were talking all turned their heads and focused on Ji You. After staying like this for a moment, the man surnamed Hu was the first to say: "Your Excellency said
That’s right, but it’s a pity that we don’t know where those barbarians are, otherwise we would definitely kill them to comfort the souls of the deceased!”
"That's right!" At this point, several people led by the man surnamed Hu became excited. They wished they could appear in front of those reckless men immediately and kill them all. The people of Tianqing City, for those
It can be said that the barbarians were filled with hatred, because Ji You discovered that even the waiter in the shop could not help clenching his fists at this moment.
"You are going to meet those barbarians. They must have been killed, right?" Ji You sneered and said directly. Although these people spoke with pride, their cultivation was not that good. The strongest
That is, the man surnamed Hu is only in the middle stage of the Yang Realm of Liangyi Realm. If these people encounter those barbarians, they will probably be killed by the barbarians.
That group of barbarians massacred two villages. Judging from the situation in Tianqing City, the cities and villages near Beihuang all have certain combat capabilities. No matter how small a village is, there should be some One Yuan Realm and at least one Liang Yi Realm.
Mysterious practitioners exist. Judging from this point, that group of barbarians is not something that a few Liangyi realm mystical practitioners can handle.
"Hmph, although our strength is limited, we are full of passion. Even if we are defeated, we will fight to the end. Your Excellency, on the other hand, will only stand here and make sarcastic remarks. If you encounter a barbarian, you will probably turn around and run away." The same goes for the man surnamed Hu.
When he was mentioned about pain, some anger appeared in his heart, and he just mocked.
"you……"
After hearing what the other party said, Bai Lan was about to speak, but was stopped by Ji You. After a slight smile, Ji You said, "In that case, how about you and I make a bet?"
"What bet?" The man named Hu was stunned for a moment, having no idea what Ji You wanted to do.
But at this time, Ji You said: "You should be a local of Tianqing City, and you are familiar with the surrounding environment, right? In that case, I bet you can lead me to find the team that massacred two people.
How about the barbarians in the village?"
"Brother Hu, I can't believe this guy, this guy..." Although the others spoke very grandly before, when they heard that they were going to find those barbarians, they immediately backed down. After all, what Ji You said before was
In fact, if they really encountered those barbarians, they would probably end up with only one end, and that would be their heads missing.
On the other hand, the man named Hu's eyes did not change at all, at least there was no trace of fear in them. He looked directly at Ji You and said: "I can accept this bet, but since it is a bet, there must be a stake. If I win
What, what if we lose?" When he said this, he realized that he couldn't see through Ji You's cultivation at all, which meant that the other party's strength was far superior to his.
"If you find it, you win, and I will give you the heads of those barbarians. If you can't find it, you lose. If you lose, I will take your life, how about that?" Ji You asked.
A cold smile appeared, and there was a chill in his eyes. Under the gaze of his eyes, everyone except the man named Hu took a step back and trembled slightly.
"Okay! That's it. But if I find it and you don't kill those barbarians, what should I do?" The man surnamed Hu shouted loudly. With this shout, he would also be blamed for Ji You's eyes.
The little fear caused by the chill in my heart was expelled from my mind.
"If I can't find it, how about I use my own head to pay off the debt?" Ji You said directly without any hesitation. His answer made Bai Lan on the side jump, although Bai Lan knew that Ji You
strength, but there are still some worries in my heart, after all, the strength of those barbarians has been unknown until now.
"It's a deal! When do you plan to set off?" The man surnamed Hu did not hesitate at all, he just agreed. From this point of view, he is much more powerful than the few people behind him. This is not
He is powerful from a cultivation point of view, but from a spiritual point of view, at least he is not like the other people who only talk about it.
"Now!"
"Then let's go!"
Without any hesitation, Ji You and Bai Lan followed the man surnamed Hu and walked out of the city. Before leaving, Ji You told the waiter to go to the restaurant where they stayed and tell Xie Jian and Xie Jian about the matter.
There was a sound of a sword. The people who were talking to the man surnamed Hu were stunned on the spot, not knowing how to react for a moment.
While walking, the man surnamed Hu opened his mouth and said to Ji You: "Hu Qiuman, do you dare to ask your name? From what I can see, you should not be from Tianqing City, right?"
Hearing Hu Qiuman's name, Ji You couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. It seemed that this guy really lived up to his name. His parents probably gave him this name so that he would never forget his hatred for the barbarians.
"My name is Ji You, and I am from Tianfeng City. I came to Tianqing City this time just to deal with the barbarians." Ji You smiled lightly and did not intend to hide anything. She just spoke directly. Anyway, in this Tianqing City,
Not many people recognize him, and he is indeed here for the sake of the barbarians.
"It turns out that Brother Ji is also a righteous man who fights against the barbarians. I have seen many righteous men who came from other places to fight against the barbarians, but I have never seen them with my own eyes. I am lucky to meet Brother Ji today.
"When Hu Qiuman heard about Ji You's bet, all the hostility he had towards Ji You disappeared. Now that he knew that Ji You was an anti-barbarian righteous man, he had some respect for him.
Although Ji You came because of the mission, it was not something that Hu Qiuman could know. It would be nice to be regarded as a righteous man who resisted the barbarians. After a moment of silence, Ji You said: "It doesn't have to be like this, now you are still
Lead me to find those barbarians, at least before the third village is destroyed in their hands..."
