The black shadow's long-planned blow did not kill the opponent, and naturally it had no deterrent effect. Instead, because of the delay, the pursuers had already caught up. At this time, it was impossible to escape, and they could only fight.
, and then look for an opportunity to escape.
Seeing that the black shadow no longer ran away, and the pursuers did not rush forward, a group of people surrounded the black shadow, and a monk in the late stage of foundation building stepped forward to persuade him: "Fellow Taoist, we are at the end of the road. I have to wait for thousands of miles to chase you."
It's just for money, and I have no interest in fellow Taoist's head. As long as you hand over the Qingjiang carp, we will let you go. Please don't make any mistakes."
This dark shadow was able to sneak into the dangerous world of cultivating immortals, and he was not a fool. It was impossible to believe his lies. Even if he really handed over Qingjiang Li, he would only be beaten to death. It would be better not to hand over these things.
A person who throws a rat-proof weapon does not dare to let go for fear of hurting the Qingjiang carp. He still has a chance to escape.
The black shadow directly attacked an early-stage foundation-building monk. The man resisted vigorously, but the others stood by and did nothing. No one came to help.
The black shadow sneered. He had expected it. This group of people wished that everyone else would be killed and they could only swallow the Qingjiang carp. It was impossible for them to work together. This gave them a chance to escape.
After a while, the monk in the early stage of foundation building could not resist, and ran away with his sword. The black shadow did not chase him, but continued to stare at the next target and beat him to death.
This happened again and again, and five or six monks who were in the early and middle stages of foundation building were injured and left, and two others who preferred death to leaving were killed.
The remaining monks in the early and middle stages of foundation building did not dare to get too close, and the encirclement became very loose.
Black Shadow once again picked an early-stage foundation-building monk as his target. After repelling him, he did not pick the next opponent, but dived down with all his strength.
This scene made everyone in the siege a little confused. According to the routine, the black shadow should choose the next target and beat it to death. Everyone was concentrating on defense to avoid becoming a target. Who knew that this person actually didn't follow the routine?
For a moment, he didn't take action to stop him in time.
By the time they reacted, the black shadow had dropped more than ten feet. Everyone immediately chased down. The black shadow threw a long sword. When everyone got close to the long sword, it instantly self-destructed the magic weapon. Everyone pursued it with momentum.
After a while, the black shadow took the opportunity to fall into the clear stream.
Although Qingxi is called "Stream", the amount of water is really not small. The river is two to three miles wide and four to five feet deep. With such a large amount of water, it is impossible for a foundation-building monk to hide it, but it is impossible for monks of the same level to catch it.
Most of the pursuers angrily fired several spells at the Qingxi people. After seeing that it had no effect, they sighed and left with their swords. A few people were not willing to give up and continued to search in the water, but their efforts were all in vain. Unless someone
The Zifu monks are here, and the black shadow has not gone far, so it is possible to find them.
The rising sun was rising in the east, and the sky was filled with morning glow. A monk flew toward the old house with his sword and landed in the backyard of Yuquan Grocery Store. The person who came was none other than Wang Zhian, the head of the Wang family.
Yesterday, Wang Zhide reported the news that Wang Daoyuan had caught Qingjiang carp back to his family. Wang Zhian immediately summoned the family elders to discuss how to deal with the matter. The elders had different opinions, and after wrangling for a long time, no result was reached. In the end, it was the clan leader who made the final decision to dedicate Qingjiang carp to the family.
Nether Sect.
After making the decision, Wang Zhian sent a letter to Yang Yong, the ancestor of the Yang family, and conveyed his intention to donate the Qingjiang carp to the Youming Sect through Yang Yong.
Yang Yong is the Wang family's backer in the Netherworld Sect. He is more than 350 years old and is in the middle stage of Zifu.
The Wang family has been suppressed by the direct family of the Netherworld Sect for three hundred years, but it is still possible to survive because of the great efforts of this elder.
The Wang family was able to climb this big tree because of the legacy of their ancestors. More than 300 years ago, Yang Yong had an unexpected encounter and successfully built the foundation at a young age.
At that time, most casual cultivators regarded Wang Chengzu as their idol, and Yang Yong was no exception. He also planned to follow Wang Chengzu's path of starting a business, killing monsters, making a name for himself, and gaining recognition from the royal Zhao family.
When he was killing monsters in the Tianzhan Mountains, he accidentally provoked the black cloud wolves.
The adult Black Cloud Wolf is a first-order peak monster, while the Wolf King is an early second-order monster.
Even the monks in the late stage of foundation building had to stay away from the Black Cloud Wolf Pack with the Wolf King, not to mention that Yang Yong had just built the foundation. He was surrounded by wolves and could no longer hold up. It happened that Wang Chengzu passed by here when he was hunting in the mountains, and rescued him
I got Yang Yong.
Wang Chengzu was kind to Yang Yong for saving his life, and Yang Yong also knew how to repay his kindness. After the Wang family was in trouble, Yang Yong actively mediated for the Wang family and saved the Wang family.
For three hundred years, the Wang family sent elders to visit Yang Yong every year, and they received generous gifts. The Wang and Yang families, from monks to mortals, continued to intermarry. Even Wang Ziyang's mother was from the Yang family.
Yang Yong received the letter from Wang Zhian and immediately reported it to the Nether Sect Sect Master. The Sect Master did not pay too much attention to this matter. After all, the actual role of Qingjiang Carp was not very great. It was just worth some spiritual stones. The incident happened in Qinglifang City, so he
This matter is entirely left to Elder Zhou of the Netherworld Sect who guards Qinglifang City.
However, Elder Zhou was practicing in seclusion and did not receive the message. Wang Zhian rushed to Qinglifang City early to visit Elder Zhou, but was rejected. It was not until Yang Yong arrived and called Elder Zhou out of the retreat that Wang Zhian saw him.
Elder Zhou.
By the time he reached an agreement on donating the Qingjiang carp and rushed to the Yuquan grocery store, it was already the next morning.
When Wang Zhian learned from Wang Zhide what happened last night, he was also shocked. If the Qingjiang carp was really snatched away and the Nether Sect became angry, the Wang family would be in great misfortune.
Fortunately, Wang Daoyuan and Wang Zhide diverted the attention of the treasure-hunting monks. Otherwise, both Yuquan Grocery Store and Danfu Pavilion would have been destroyed.
Just as Wang Zhi'an was about to recover from his shock, Elder Zhou and Yang Yong brought several Netherworld Sect foundation-building disciples to Yuquan Grocery Store.
At this time, Liang Jiaxing, the head of the Liang family, came uninvited, but his expression was not right, as if he had suffered serious internal injuries.
Wang Zhian and Wang Zhide greeted Elder Zhou and Yang Yong. After the ceremony, Elder Zhou said: "The Wang family understands the righteousness and took the initiative to offer the Qingjiang carp. The sect leader was very happy and ordered me to handle the matter with full authority. He also said that he would do a good job
Reward the Wang family."
Wang Zhian quickly thanked him and said, "As an affiliated family of the Netherworld Sect, the Wang family has a duty to offer the Qingjiang carp, and they dare not expect extravagant rewards."
Liang Jiaxing said angrily on the side: "How did I hear that a foundation-building monk broke into the Danfu Pavilion last night, injured the boy who caught the fish, and took away the Qingjiang carp. The Wang family lost the Qingjiang carp, and they brazenly asked for it.
What is the crime for cheating the Netherworld Sect to obtain rewards?"
Wang Zhide asked: "How did the head of the Liang family know that someone had snatched the Qingjiang carp?"
Liang Jiaxing said contemptuously: "How could I not know that there was such a big commotion last night?"
"Since you know, why don't you help?" Wang Zhide asked again, "Could it be that the head of the Liang family hopes that the Qingjiang carp will be snatched away by others, or taken as his own, and does not want my Wang family to be handed over to the Netherworld Sect?"
Liang Jiaxing was speechless. Wang Zhide said what was in his heart. After holding it in for a long time, he finally had to reply weakly: "How do I know that the Wang family is going to hand over Qingjiang Carp to the Netherworld Sect?"
After Wang Zhide gained the upper hand, he stopped chasing and fighting to avoid annoying Elder Zhou.
Elder Zhou also knew a little about the grudges between the Wang and Liang families, but as an outsider there was no need to get involved, but he was too lazy to listen to the two of them bickering and asked, "Is Qingjiang Li still in the hands of the Wang family?"
