Chapter 71: Blocking the Road (Third Update)
It's been squeezed out of the recommended list again, Xiaodao has really worked hard, but it's still this result, are we really not as good as others? In doubt, continue to ask for recommendation votes! There will be another update later, I promised, I did it, now it's up to you!
What kind of scene would it be if two hundred Xuan-level warriors gathered together?
Most people wouldn't have such a concept, for example, the three major families in Huangsha City, the strongest Shangguan family, the number of Xuan-level warriors they possess, on the surface, is only more than thirty people. Including those behind the scenes, it shouldn't exceed sixty!
The Fang and Qin families would have no more than fifty Xuan-level warriors at most. As for those above the Xuan level, they were even fewer in number, while the Tian level was the ultimate power of a family!
I'm afraid that in today's Qinglong Country, apart from the Emperor, there is no one else who can take out such a large sum of money. Seventeen Heaven-level warriors, fifty Earth-level warriors, and two hundred Mystic-level... I don't know if they've taken out all the savings of Qinglong Country.
But from this point on, it will make countless clever people excited and moved! If not for the exact news, how could the royal family be so generous, risking the danger of being empty-handed, and sending all the masters here?
So, this is the real reason why countless warriors rushed to Phoenix Lake!
Everyone thought beforehand that even if you are a royal family, you should follow the rules of the rivers and lakes. The ancient ruins must be enormous, and Fenghu Lake itself is also very large, it's not something that can be explored clearly by just a few people. At that time, everyone will rely on their own abilities, whoever gets the treasure, that's good luck!
Unfortunately, many things are like this, imagined to be very beautiful, but reality is always cruel.
It's like this now.
The Phoenix Lake is surrounded by high mountains, although it is located in the south, but the peaks of these high mountains are covered with thousands of years of snow that never melts, looking majestic and magnificent!
These mountain ranges stretch for hundreds of miles, and if viewed from above, it can be felt that with Fenghuang Lake as the center, eight giant peaks extend in all directions, like a crown! And Fenghuang Lake is like an oval blue gemstone, inlaid in the middle of the crown, looking magnificent!
However, this means that the road to Phoenix Lake only has eight paths, each of which is blocked by two giant peaks. The most important thing is not how difficult it is to climb these giant peaks, but rather that on top of any one of these eight giant peaks, there are countless powerful spiritual beasts!
Not to mention those with Xuan-level strength... even Tian-level warriors dare not lightly cross swords with him!
The road from Huangsha City to Fenghu Lake, which was the only one in front of us, was now blocked by two hundred Xuan-level warriors from the imperial family. What's even more frightening is that these Xuan-level warriors each had a fierce and powerful aura, full of an iron-blooded flavor, and every single one of them had an extremely thick killing intent lingering on their bodies. It's impossible for someone who hasn't experienced life-and-death battles or killed over a hundred people on the battlefield to possess this kind of aura!
These warriors from all sides, most of whom had killed people and shed blood, were all intimidated by the momentum of these two hundred people. About three to four hundred people were blocked at the last pass leading to Phoenix Lake. Many people in the crowd stirred up trouble and shouted loudly, but not a single person really went out to force their way through.
Qin Li and others walked to the back of the crowd, looking at the excited Jianghu martial artists. Qin Li smiled faintly and whispered to Ah Hu and others beside him: "See, this is the biggest difference between officialdom and the people. When 200 people come to this station, you don't dare to force your way through. If you do, it's equivalent to treason..."
Bù Yún yān yǒu xiē zhā shé de dào: "zhè me cháng yàng?"
Translation:
"Is it that serious?"
Qin Li smiled and thought to himself: If you had lived in the world I used to be in, you wouldn't have such questions.
It was actually the warrior in front who seemed dissatisfied with Qin Li's words. He turned his head and saw that Qin Li was a handsome young man of about twenty years old, but he didn't feel any particularly strong fluctuations from him. Moreover, the later they arrived, the more they looked down on them. The reason was very simple: those who dared to come first were all capable people, while most of those who followed behind were thinking of taking advantage of loopholes.
The warrior sneered, curling his lip in disdain. "Treason? Ha! It's not as serious as you make it out to be, young one. Don't spout nonsense! We outnumber them two to one, and there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers among us. How do you know there aren't any Earth or Heaven level warriors here? Wiping out these two hundred people would be a breeze!"
Bù Yún yān saw him refuting Qín Lì, and his heart was not satisfied. He coldly smiled and said: "What you say is easy, this side has many people, but they are like a plate of loose sand, each fighting for themselves. Moreover, among the people who came from the imperial family this time, there are also many strong people with earthly and heavenly powers. Even if we kill these people, they won't kill us?"
"Hmph, if you're afraid, what are you doing here? Go back the way you came!" The warrior, seeing himself being ridiculed by an ugly girl, suddenly sneered and curled his lip: "Or, you can cross over that mountain peak and enter Phoenix Lake too!"
Bai Yun saw this person being unreasonable and annoying, so she just hummed a sound and didn't bother to deal with him.
At this time, these warriors from all over the place started to get a little restless, after all, they came here just to make a fortune, but unexpectedly, not even the shadow of the ruins could be seen now, and they were about to be blocked here.
These people, although their aura is not as heavy as that of the royal warriors, are mostly big-hearted and fearless. Who can willingly endure this kind of suffocation?
"Damn it, the royal family is too shameless! I've worked hard to get here, why can't I go in? Do you really think this world is just one person's word? I'm not afraid! Brothers, I won't tolerate this, can you?"
"Enduring this for his mother's sake, I don't want to endure it anymore! You've been blocking us here for half a day, do you really think we don't dare take action?"
"Alright, you royals, you've gone too far! You're provoking heroes everywhere! Anyone with a bit of blood in their veins wouldn't tolerate this humiliation! Brothers, grab your gear and let's take down these damned dogs!"
Hundreds of warriors from all over the world suddenly became restless, after all, being blocked here was not a solution. Now that some people had stirred them up, their blood was boiling. Among this group of people, there must be those with great strength, who were often the masters of one side and didn't care about imperial power in the first place. Now that they were being obstructed by the royal family, they naturally became even more displeased.
The crowd began to slowly move towards the two hundred Royal Dark-level warriors.
Those royal warriors, naturally also felt the pressure. One of the leaders of the royal warriors, with eyes wide open, shouted loudly: "What do you want to do? Want to rebel? I warn you, this place has already been placed under martial law..."
The royal warrior leader had not finished speaking, when a shrill breaking sound came from the air, and then, he saw that the royal warrior leader was shot through the throat by an arrow of unknown origin, and fell to the ground dead!
A group of royal warriors immediately changed their faces!
"Martial law for your mother!"
At this time, a gloomy and unpleasant voice came from the crowd, like an owl.
Everyone was shocked by this arrow. The leader of the royal warriors, who had at least a high-level Xuan rank strength, didn't even react and was shot dead with one arrow!
What kind of strength does the archer have? A whispering voice suddenly spread through the crowd.
"He's a philosopher of Kyudo!"
"It should be, in the entire Qinglong country, apart from Zhe's people, who else can shoot such an arrow?"
"Awesome! Haha, now it's going to be lively. The Zhe family isn't easy to mess with... Back then, the previous emperor sent 50,000 troops and still couldn't wipe out the Zhe family village..."
Qin Li's eyes fell on the person who had just shot the arrow, a thin young man in his thirties, not particularly tall, and not very noticeable in the crowd. He was holding a gray bow and arrow, and he didn't seem to be afraid at all for having killed a royal warrior.
"What's with this philosopher? Isn't he afraid that the imperial family's martial artists will come out and cause him trouble?" Qin Li asked in a low voice to Ah Hu beside him.
