Recruit black physique to start practice in the wasteland

Qu Jianlei thought for a moment and answered seriously, "We have some experience in space rules."

"I heard about it," City Lord Huo nodded again, "You can collect such a huge Nascent Soul Tree Clan."

Qu Jianlei smiled again, "The Tree Clan was a complete accident. They surrendered too quickly, so we didn't have time to take action."

He wanted to emphasize that his team didn't have any strange habits, they were just acting too slowly.

However, Huo Jiujian heard something else, "Did Lord Qu Ling take down the Tree Clan himself?"

It is not that rare to capture the Tree Clan's Nascent Soul, the amazing thing is that Red Leaf Ridge has extraordinary combat power.

But the question of where we encountered the tree tribe is very important.

Could it be that the people from Hongyeling were not in Dongsheng Continent before?

Qu Jianlei answered casually, "I've said before that our team has had connections with the Out-of-Body Great Venerable... and more than one."

After hearing this, Huo Jiujian was speechless again. He dared to ask Lord Qu Ling directly, but when it came to the Out-of-Body Immortal, he had to be cautious.

So he could only bring up another topic, "Are you planning to... transfer your business to Zhongzhou?"

He hinted last time that Zhongzhou's attitude towards Hongyeling is definitely different from its attitude towards other forces in Dongsheng.

His intention to recruit was very clear at that time, but the big formation between Zhongzhou and Dongsheng was still in place, so he couldn't say it openly.

Lord Qu Ling said at the time that if he wanted an independent fourth-level spiritual vein, he would have to form his own power, and Lord Huo could not make this decision.

However, this time, when he saw Broken Blade appear in Zhongzhou, he couldn't help but have such speculation again.

Qu Jianlei shook his head and replied calmly, "Moving the business to Zhongzhou... maybe I'll consider it later."

Huo Jiujian was a little anxious when he heard this answer, "Why don't you consider it now?"

"The demons are arrogant in Zhongzhou," Qu Jianlei gave him a strange look, "The isolation formation is still there, why should I humiliate myself?"

City Lord Huo felt that this guy was a bit too serious. "I've already said that Zhongzhou welcomes you to join us."

But then, City Lord Huo realized another meaning and couldn't help but be surprised, "You mean, Zhongzhou is more dangerous than Dongsheng?"

Of course it is! Qu Jianlei replied calmly, "There are many fortune-telling experts in Zhongzhou. Wouldn't it be clear if we do some divination?"

"That doesn't sound good," Huo Jiujian thought for a moment before asking, "You are also good at divination. Do you think Dongsheng is safer?"

"I don't give any advice," Qu Jianlei replied expressionlessly, "and you also know that the Heavenly Demon Realm has appeared in Dongsheng."

He was emphasizing the crisis of Dongsheng, but his real inclination was still quite obvious.

Anyway, Huo Jiujian was not fooled. In fact, the Lord of Daye City had other channels of information.

He said calmly, "Demon Territory has also appeared in Zhongzhou, and... there is more than one."

"Really?" Qu Jianlei was a little surprised when he heard that. "I haven't heard of that."

Recently there have been rumors in Zhongzhou that the demons are becoming more and more rampant, and the neighbors around the manor have also gone crazy about it.

Even Claire, who rarely goes out, heard the news.

But the Demonic Realm... I've never heard anyone talk about it, and it doesn't seem like it has reached that point yet.

Huo Jiujian replied calmly, "The news has been blocked. It is the order of His Majesty Xingchen to prevent panic."

Qu Jianlei was speechless after hearing this: Are you blocking the news at this time?

However, City Lord Huo also said: There is no way, Zhongzhou has been peaceful for a long time, and the ability of most people to bear it may be relatively poor.

In short, it is impossible for Dongsheng to block this kind of news because the cultivators in Dongsheng are mentally strong enough.

Anyway, even if the Dongsheng people want to run away, they have nowhere to escape, so it is better to release relevant information in time to facilitate better preparations for war.

But it’s different here in Zhongzhou. The locals have experienced fewer hardships and have a natural sense of superiority.

Deep down in their hearts, they have a subconscious thought: if they really can’t stay in Zhongzhou anymore, they can go to other states!

This feeling of being superior has existed for a long time, and the Star Palace is well aware of it.

The Star Palace does not like the idea of ​​the cultivators in Zhongzhou. Zhongzhou is the largest state in the Cangwu Realm and has the best overall conditions.

If we cannot hold on to Zhongzhou, even if we can escape to other states, how long can we hold on? We can only survive for a short while.

However, this is already the general perception of the people in Zhongzhou, and it cannot be changed overnight.

Moreover, the psychological endurance of the cultivators in Zhongzhou is really not as good as that of the people in Dongsheng who once fought to the death.

Of course, there is no shortage of brave cultivators in Zhongzhou. When Dongsheng was invaded by the tiger people, a large number of cultivators went to support it.

All in all, nothing in the world is so absolute, but there is indeed a good reason why the Star Palace temporarily blocked the news.

After Huo Jiujian finished his story, he looked at Qu Jianlei and said, "You don't seem very surprised?"

"What's so surprising about this?" Qu Jianlei smiled. "However, although Zhongzhou is big, the people here have no way out."

Not to mention the case of preventing the Dongsheng people from escaping, just the fact that this is the center of the Cangwu Realm means there is no way to retreat.

Huo Jiu nodded happily after hearing this, and it was obvious that he agreed with this statement.

But then he sighed again, "But some people think that only by almost letting Zhongzhou fall can we attract intervention from the higher realms."

"What?" Qu Jianlei was stunned.

After a long while, he asked uncertainly, "So... if Zhongzhou resists badly, is that a good thing?"

Huo Jiujian spread his hands and answered helplessly, "It's obviously wishful thinking, but there are still people who believe it!"

Qu Jianlei was silent for a long time before he smiled slightly, "Why do you care about such an idiot?"

"That's just what I said," Huo Jiujian answered casually, and then asked, "It seems that you are sure that Dongsheng is safer?"

"Did I say that?" Qu Jianlei smiled disapprovingly, "Whatever you want to think...it's more reliable to do a divination."

Huo Jiujian looked at him deeply again, "Dongsheng is safer, right? It's because of the battle in Hongye Ridge, right?"

It is said that nothing is simple in this world. After chatting for a while, he came to this conclusion.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

It must be admitted that the thinking of the mayor of a first-tier city is really incomparable to that of an ordinary Nascent Soul.

"The devils themselves bear grudges," Qu Jianlei answered straightforwardly, without beating around the bush, "You don't know that, do you?"

Huo Jiujian's eyes were dazed for a moment, and then he spoke, "I heard that Hongye Ridge accepts outsiders asylum?"

"If I want to send a group of people over, what will it cost?"

"Yes..." Qu Jianlei hesitated and replied, "We need to remove the isolation formation!"

Huo Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this, and then sighed softly, "Alas, it seems that Dongsheng still has a strong grudge against Zhongzhou."

The establishment of the isolation formation was decided and organized by the Star Palace. Even though he came from the Star Palace, he had no say in such matters.

"You don't have to say that to me," Qu Jianlei shook his head. "Hongye Ridge belongs to Dongsheng, and the locals can't protect us!"

This is not a problem of small groupism, the fundamental point is: this topic cannot be opened arbitrarily!

The personality of one’s own team is secondary. The key is that once the trend is formed, the situation in Zhongzhou... may become very bad!

The fake Taoist believes that the demons are now more afraid of Dongsheng, but even so, Dongsheng still needs Zhongzhou's help to share the pressure.

Moreover, the Star Palace obviously does not want the people of Zhongzhou to flee in all directions. If Hongye Ridge accepts the people of Zhongzhou as refuge, it will also anger the Star Palace.

Huo Jiujian was silent. Although he was dissatisfied, as the lord of a city, he was still able to keep his composure.

After a while, he said, "Removing the formation is a decision that only the Star Palace can make."

Qu Jianlei nodded, "I know, we're just chatting... There are so many important people, is it your turn or mine to worry about them?"

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore," Huo Jiujian waved his hand and asked, "Did you buy a stone at the last exchange meeting?"

"Huh?" Qu Jianlei was stunned when he heard it, "Isn't this over yet?"

He didn't think he had done anything wrong. The highest bidder got it, and he didn't retaliate later.

"I handled the formalities for you," Huo Jiujian said casually, "Anyway, you better be careful at the academy."

The Four Sacred Mountains again? Qu Jianlei frowned, "Shu Academy... What? Did I offend them?"

"You know the temper of the Four Sacred Mountains," Huo Jiujian couldn't help but complain, "They may not even listen to the Star Palace."

When Qu Jianlei heard this, he understood at first, but then, a surge of nameless anger rushed to his head.

He said calmly, "Do they want to find me? What a coincidence, I also want to find them... Who should I find in the Academy of Arts?"

"Tsk, why are you doing this?" Huo Jiu frowned, "I just heard that it seems to be from the School of Arts, but I'm not sure."

"Okay then," Qu Jianlei nodded, "I'll go and make sure of it myself."

"Hongyeling has always been kind to others, but if anyone thinks we can be bullied, they are very wrong."

Huo Jiujian chatted for a while and then said goodbye and left. Qu Jianlei immediately arranged for Claire to contact Duan Bowen and the people from the Five Friends Alliance.

At the last exchange meeting, he missed the last day and quietly slipped away, but that was only because he didn't want to get into trouble, not because he was afraid of anyone.

The other party was so persistent that it really made him angry: I left early, are you never going to let go?

Anyway, his identity is being cleared up bit by bit, and Dongsheng at the moment can basically be regarded as the strong backing of the team.

The most important thing is that he has many grandfathers with him, and many resources in Zhongzhou are no longer something he must obtain.

If this is the case, why should you put yourself in a difficult position?

The next day after Claire sent the message, someone from the Five Friends Alliance came, but it was not Boss Yongheng who came, but the Immortal Sanshi.

Sanshi Zhenxian was the original owner of the manor and the first local Yuanying to deal with them.

Although according to rumors, this person is narrow-minded, the relationship between the two parties is not bad.

But when he saw Qu Jianlei, he was stunned at first, "Damn, didn't you just break through the Heavenly Demon Realm?"
