These dozen lives failed to help Qin Chaolie turn the tide of the war, but they created an opportunity for him to escape.

In the past, he hated people saying that he ran away and that he was afraid of death. That was because in his hometown, he had never had an opponent or been defeated. Naturally, he despised the loser's cowardly attempt to survive. But now, he is the one who is defeated.

.

Although he can make excuses for himself, for example, he has just recovered and has not yet reached his peak state, or he has just initiated so many people, and his strength has been severely depleted, or there are two people on the other side, and he cannot win with force.

But a defeat is a defeat. Thinking about how he treated losers in the past, he probably knew his outcome, but he was unwilling to accept it.

He was not willing to fail midway through his business, so he ran away. In order to increase the probability of escape, he directly ordered the mindless walking zombies to stop the two women with all their lives.

In this battle, the Liehuo Gang killed three foundation-building monks and more than twenty Qi-refining monks. None of the surviving disciples had any Qi-refining skills. From then on, the Liehuo Gang existed in name only.

Hu Lu cherished cultivators very much. He wished he could promulgate laws to prevent cultivators from killing each other, because cultivators who were not in tune with each other or even hostile, when they faced a group of common enemies, they could still defeat each other.

Twisted into a rope, it becomes an important part of a powerful force.

For example, facing people outside the fog, a group of Qin Chaolie.

Hu Lu gave Zhao Xunhuan a few pills given by Sister Crimson. Zhao quickly improved and even his broken arm was recovering. It would surely grow back in time.

He told Hu Lu, "The purpose of Qin Chaolie is to rule our world of cultivation!"

Qing Xin's little grump couldn't stand it anymore, "It's just him, I'm bah!"

"He definitely can't do it alone. That guy is a bit too much, but we can't take it lightly. One Qin Chaolie is not terrible, but if there are ten or a hundred Qin Chaolie, it will be a catastrophe for us!" Hu Lu was very serious. After all, there is no world in the world.

It is true that there are more than a hundred powerful Jindan people, but they are blocked by the fog.

They may not all be bad guys and careerists, but Hulu is not afraid to use the most sinister intentions to speculate on the people outside the fog, and prepares for the worst in everything, so the result cannot be worse.

What Mrs. Feng is concerned about is, "Is he really from outside the fog?"

"Beyond the fog?" Zhao Xunhuan suddenly realized, "It seems, it seems to be true. He keeps saying that our place is not from the same world as us at all, and the iron box he used to live in was found in the foggy area.

, nine times out of ten, they really came to us from outside the fog in this way!"

"What should we do now? Do we want to continue hunting?" Yi Jianmei asked. If necessary, she would take on this important task.

Hu Lu knew which direction he was going, but Qin Chaolie was no longer within the scope of his spiritual thoughts at this time, and he didn't know exactly where he went.

Instead of searching all over the world, it is better to pay attention to the World Spirit Tree. As long as he still has the ambition to dominate one side and cultivate thugs and pawns, then there will definitely be feedback on the World Spirit Tree, and you will know it at a glance.

Hu Lu waved his hand, "Don't chase after a poor bandit, and you are no match for him. Do you want to catch him and die?"

Yijianmei: So angry, but so reasonable!

Zhao Xunhuan thought of a question, "Your Majesty, will he go to the capital? This son is so ambitious that he always wants to take your Majesty's place."

Hulu laughed, "If he really dares to go, he will really die. With Fairy Zhao in charge of the capital, if he dares to go, he will never come back."

Qingxin, Wei Die sneered in her heart: What a stupid emperor.

Yun Qing: What a little fool.

Hulu knew that Qin Chaolie had gone to the west, but he was also worried that he would suddenly turn back and fight for the capital, so he did not delay, leaving Yijianmei to deal with the funeral affairs of the Liehuo Gang, and then the group prepared to return to the capital.

However, in the middle of the journey, Mrs. Feng and Qing Xin, one said they wanted to go back to Kongchan Pavilion and the other said they wanted to go back to Sanqing Mountain. They asked Wei Die to use her flying magic weapon to take Hu Lu and the others back, and they parted ways.

He said so, but Hu Lumen Qing'er, the two of them must have found a place to discuss, so after flying a hundred kilometers, he asked Wei Die to stop.

"I need to pee." After landing, Hulu started to watch a movie.

Qingxin did have a moment, forcing Mrs. Feng to reveal the true form of the Divine Phoenix. Qingxin was completely confused, it turns out that you are not a human at all!

Although he was not a human being, he still had to fight. In the end, Qingxin lost because he was young and lacked combat experience, so he had a slight disadvantage.

Then she said: "How about this, I won't publicize that you are not a human being so that you can stay on the list, and you don't tell anyone about today's competition."

Mrs. Feng didn't care about her ranking on the list, she cared more about her husband's reputation, fearing that someone would make irresponsible remarks about Long Youzai after her identity was exposed.

So they reconciled successfully, but a few days later, there was still a change in the ranking of the top ten masters in the world of cultivation. Madam Feng moved up one place, beating Fairy Qingxin.

After Zhao Dezhu passed the news back to Sanqing Mountain, Qingxin knew that the arrogant Hu Lu must have been spying secretly during their competition, so he must also have known about his being a villain in vain for the sake of ranking.

It's so shameful. I was so pure and ashamed that I didn't leave Sanqing Mountain for many years. I devoted myself to my own cultivation and finally became a otaku.

On the other side, after Hulu and his party returned to the palace, Hulu began to screen more than 4,000 monks on the World Spirit Tree day and night, focusing on the newly promoted Qi Refining monks and Foundation-building monks, just to find clues about Qin Chaolie , however, more than a month has passed, and there is still no trace of Qin Chaolie's appearance.

At this time, the story of the Agni Fire Gang has spread in the world of cultivation. Hu Lu controls Tianxia Pavilion, which means he controls most of the public opinion in the world of cultivation. The other half of the public opinion is controlled by the Lily Sect.

The Lily Sect has also been very obedient recently. Ever since Chaitou Feng came back from the Tianji Sect, she has become much more honest when she saw that her master had to bow to the emperor. The Lily Sect's pace is basically the same as that of the imperial court.

As a result, the Liehuo Gang was controlled by the outsider Qin Chaolie, who attempted to subvert the current structure of the world of cultivation. Fortunately, they were discovered by the imperial court and nipped in the bud early. Unfortunately, the thieves escaped in the end, which set the tone.

There are cultivators outside the fog, and the unfriendly view has become a consensus among the cultivators.

Under this consensus, Hu Lu posted imperial notices at the entrances of Xidanxian Street, announcing a comprehensive wanted order for Qin Chaolie, and wrote a portrait of Qin Chaolie for circulation all over the world. Anyone who can provide clues to Qin Chaolie will be rewarded with thousands of spiritual stones, and those who can capture him alive will be rewarded. Anyone who brings back Qin Chaolie's body will be rewarded with a million spiritual stones!

This list was known as the "Royal Mission" in history. Since then, the imperial court has published many lists to convey important messages to cultivators in the world in the form of bounties. The amount of reward on the royal mission has also become a topic of discussion among cultivators.

Hu Lu didn't really expect anyone to catch such a vicious person as Qin Chaolie, unless the enemies of Tianji Sect and Kongchan Pavilion were willing to join forces. He just hoped that more people would know Qin Chaolie, realize his danger, and be happy to see him. Hide far away and avoid risking your own life by being confused.

As for the reward of one million spirit stones, although it was a huge amount, he had no intention of actually cashing it in, but Hu Lu could really afford it because the Guqiangong spirit stone mine had finally mined!

In the second month after Hulu and others returned to the capital from the Liehuo Gang, good news came from the Red Sea. They found an entrance to the Lingshi Mine and presented the first Lingshi they mined.

Qin Huairou is obviously more professional in the field of Lingshi mines. She initially estimated that the reserves of Guqiangong Lingshi mine are several times or even ten times larger than those of Siqing Island Lingshi mine!

This underground spirit stone mine may not only be under the Forbidden City Palace, but also extend a lot.

After hearing the news, Hulu issued an urgent order to buy all the land around the Forbidden City Palace, demanding that the expenses be paid regardless of the cost.

So the first batch of demolition nouveau riche were born in Dayue Dynasty. There is no concept of nail house in Dayue. The emperor is willing to pay several times the market price to take away your house. You should be grateful. What, if you don’t want to demolish it, then find a reason to confiscate it. alright.

Hulu asked again about the production volume.

Qin Huairou estimated, "It will definitely be slower now. After all, the miners are not familiar with the operating procedures, and the entrance is narrow and needs to be further widened. I estimate that the production can be 10,000 pieces per month, and I hope to increase it to 50,000 pieces in the future!"

Hu Lu patted his thigh and said, "Okay!"

Cai Xin rubbed her thighs, "Why are you patting me?"

But she still felt sweet in her heart. The emperor was willing to let her know about such a big thing as the fourth spirit stone mine. What kind of trust it was.

People said that the emperor loved Yun Qing almost to the point of being obsessed with him, but he would not let her get involved in this kind of thing at all, and would even have to keep her far away before he could talk about it.

Hu Lu thought to himself, this kind of thing must push Yun Qing away. Everyone knows that but she can't.

If this suspected last princess of Daqian knew that there was a huge spiritual stone mine hidden under Guqian Palace, I wonder if she would fall out.

On Xidanxian Street, Zhao Dezhu goes to the street corner every day to take a look at the "Royal Mission". A million spirit stones are too fragrant. Although there is no shortage of spirit stones in Sanqing Mountain now, half of the output of the Siqing Island spirit stone mine belongs to the emperor and half is Sanqing Island. Qingdao, but Zhao Dezhu himself is short of it. He wants to propose marriage to Duandaomen. He wants to get married and start a business.

After several months of getting along, Zhao Dezhu and Broken Iron Hammer found out that they had similar interests and decided to be together for life.

As he was watching, a gentle hand was placed on his shoulder. Zhao Dezhu thought it was a hammer, so he reached out to touch it lovingly, but...

"What are you doing? It's disgusting!" It was Yuan Hua's voice.

Zhao Dezhu said "poof" and wiped his hands on his clothes. He felt even more disgusted.

Yuan Hua, the subordinate of Lord Yi Jianmei, the commander of the Imperial Guard and the Western Guard, is the third-ranking figure in the Imperial Guard and is in charge of dozens of people.

However, his dozens of subordinates are all just like him, they are Qi Refining Stage monks, but they have a difficult case on their hands. He believes that it is safe to have Foundation Establishing monks.

It’s just that Mr. Yi Jianmei has been absent from work recently and has not been to the Imperial Guard for many days. However, everyone understands that I heard that General Aotun is about to give birth and that the royal family is going to have an heir. This is a big deal and it is just a small matter for the Imperial Guard. The son is no longer important.

However, since the task fell on Xi Wei, Yuan Hua wanted to do things beautifully to avoid being underestimated by Liu Bo, so he found Zhao Dezhu.

This is not the first time that the Imperial Guard has cooperated with Zhao Dezhu. In the Three Qing Dynasties, not only did the business of ordinary cultivators but also the court's business. Every time the Imperial Guard was short of manpower, they would ask Zhao Dezhu for paid help.

Compared to being a personal cultivator, Zhao Dezhu also preferred to do court business. Everyone knew about his relationship with the emperor, so he had never defaulted on payment. The reputation of the imperial guards was very good.

Recently, a new Fairy Teahouse opened in Xidan. It has a quiet environment, and there are fairies playing the zither and pipa. It is very suitable for talking. Rumor has it that the man behind the Fairy Teahouse is Lu Zeyu, one of the Seven Elders of Fengming. Although this person is not a golden elixir, he is not far behind.

Well, after all, if you can play with Qiu Zizai, there won't be much difference.

"Slider, what happened this time?"

Yuan Hua poured tea for Brother Zhu, "There are spirits causing trouble in Tong County below the capital, which is a bit tricky."

In the beginning, the attitude of the cultivators including the imperial court towards the goblins was to get rid of them quickly without considering anything else.

Later, Bai Buling's story was made public, and a demon concubine became famous in the palace, and the world's attitude towards demons also quietly changed.

In the past, imperial guards would kill monsters on sight, but now they have to obtain evidence to confirm that they are bad monsters before they can take action.

Their slogan is "We will not let go of a pregnant demon, nor will we wrongly accuse a good demon."

After hearing Yuan Hua briefly explain the matter, Zhao Dezhu said impulsively, "What are you waiting for? Let's go to Tong County!"

Royal Palace, Guangming Palace.

"Harder, harder!"

Chunyu Honghong started her work as a midwife again. She couldn't pick you up, and she still had to pick up your baby. She was really angry.

Originally, Chunyu Honghong planned to leave the capital. The canyon where she and her baby lived was named "Ten Thousand Flowers Valley" by the imperial court and was given to the Baodan Sect as a planting base. It was very suitable for cultivating fairy grass and fairy plants, so Chunyu Honghong planned to

He took the disciples there to practice, leaving only a few in the capital to take charge of the Baodan Sect's store affairs.
