Chapter 546: Defeated, Brother
As the fuse was lit again, it burned out rapidly and sank into the huge and cold projectile.
Zhao Qing and the other two were instantly more than several feet away.
Only Ye Xi was unable to react. She stood aside in confusion... and stared at the phone in Xiaoyi's hand.
But the next breath!
The girl's long black hair suddenly flew wildly and danced, her clothes fluttering in the wind!
As if realizing something in an instant, Ye Xi hurriedly dodged, but was thrown off balance by the extremely strong airflow...
The Yuelian Young Master's heart trembled, and when he looked back in surprise, his originally beautiful face lost all its color, and his almond-shaped eyes, which used to be full of charm and smile, now revealed an extremely dangerous and murderous light!
The huge, cold arrow was still hanging in the air, and only the hot and turbulent wind and waves engulfed everything, as if the whole world had fallen into a brief silence.
Zhao Qing's expression also became extremely solemn, and he was estimating the current state of the Rockets in his mind... In the next moment, he suddenly made a move and pulled the stunned Ye Xi to his side!
"Boom!"
"boom--"
The chaotic and noisy humming sound spread throughout the heavens and earth, and the burning flames gushed out like a turbulent waterfall, supporting the huge arrow to slowly rise... The heat wave that hit people's faces made their souls tremble.
"boom--"
"boom--"
Then there were two short and chaotic booms, and the gushing flames became more and more dense and terrifying, extending for more than ten feet.
Thick smoke billowed in all directions, and in an instant it covered an area of a hundred feet, enveloping Zhao Qing and the other three!
After just three breaths, the speed of the giant arrow had surpassed that of Qi Refining and even crossed the speed of ordinary Foundation Establishment. It was like a golden elixir monster with dragon blood. It quickly sank into the end of the sky. The trail left behind it was no longer detectable, and only a dazzling red light hidden at the end of the sky remained.
However, the launch pad that remained in place had already partially melted, and the palace pavilion where the four people stepped on was also charred and cracked with a pale color.
Ye Xi's eyes were filled with shock. He stared intently at a flash of red light at the end of the sky. He actually took a step forward and flew up into the air, steadily controlling Lingyu to quickly rush over...
Zhao Qing couldn't help but chuckle as he watched. He quietly controlled the spiritual mark two hundred miles away and waited, waiting for the rocket to appear in his perception again...
My aunt also put away her phone, but the expectation and surprise in her beautiful eyes lingered for a long time.
It is obvious that Ye Xi went to chase the rocket, probably because he wanted to experience it for himself.
However, Zhao Qing and the other two seemed to be unhurried.
After all, as designers, they knew very well that at the speed of the rocket... they simply couldn't catch up.
If he could control a flying boat, it would be possible. Or if Qing Huan's cultivation level was higher, reaching the late stage of foundation building, he could rely on his dragon bloodline and Qingming Xing magical power to barely keep up with the rocket's wake...
"The launch pad needs to be modified. The melting point of this mithril is still a bit low."
Zhao Qing briefly examined the launch pad, then casually placed it in his storage ring. He then leisurely stepped onto the apricot boat and said, "Let's follow and take a look..."
The aunt's beautiful eyes curved, and without saying a word, she accompanied Jiang Yinghan onto the apricot boat.
After all, the two of them didn't leave any spiritual marks, so they had to rush over to observe carefully... but they definitely didn't have to chase the rockets head-on.
……
In less than half a cup of tea, a rich scarlet color appeared in the sky of Dongxin Territory, one hundred and seventy miles away!
Coming quickly with endless smoke!
However, Ye Xi, who followed the giant arrow, was nowhere to be seen.
Half a cup of tea! One hundred and seventy miles!
For Tianxiang City, this is already an extremely terrifying speed!
According to Jiang Yinghan's calculations, their hand-rubbed rockets, under ideal conditions, have a speed of 1.3 Mach.
However, due to the influence of air pressure, weather, wind direction, and even various uncontrollable factors on the assembly line, the actual average launch speed is still within the subsonic range.
Although this situation may not be worth mentioning for the industrial power of the Xia Emperor Realm.
But the speed of a foundation-building cultivator is not measured in Mach.
The girls on the ship have a joke that goes, if monks can run at several times the speed of sound, then what is the use of missiles?
Flying in the air is the joy that only those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage can achieve, and it is far beyond the reach of those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
It's too late to say.
Only a moment after the scarlet light appeared in the sky, it was already approaching the long street of Nanxin City with the force of a mountain collapsing.
The spiritual mark left by Zhao Qing only had time to draw it hastily, causing the giant arrow to deflect slightly in the sky, and the next moment it crashed into a palace of inheritance somewhere!
In an instant, a dazzling flame burst out! It was as if the heaven and earth were torn apart!
"Boom——"
The explosion that pierced the clouds and split the rocks shook off the frost and snow all over the city. The palace collapsed and the ground cracked. Thick smoke billowed and flames shot up into the sky. The power to destroy everything was vented wantonly. The pervasive and swirling smoke continued to press down, turning half of the city into darkness, with no sign of dawn!
All that remains before us are scorched earth, ruins, and broken walls...
As the explosives exploded and scattered the soul-trapping nails, holes were left all over the ground and walls.
The so-called defensive formation and the so-called immortal city formation base also collapsed with the earth and did not play any role at all.
After all, the defensive formations in various places are mostly used to resist magic and restrict spiritual consciousness... but they have no function of defending against firearms.
The only things that can defend against rockets are indestructible city walls, flying boats made of black gold immortal materials, and speeds comparable to those of golden elixirs.
……
Not until the smoke and clouds gradually dispersed did Ye Xi step on Lingyu and break through the spiritual barrier of Nanxinyu.
After seeing the desolation and smoke in the city, the girl was suddenly shocked, and her dark pupils shrank and trembled!
Three palaces collapsed in succession!
All the defensive formations and repair formations collapsed!
The green rock shattered and the earth cracked...stretching for miles!
If the attack lands on a cultivator, his body will be turned into a pool of blood in an instant!
Ye Xi gritted her teeth, her eyes full of confusion. She stayed in Nanxinyu in silence for a full half a minute before she waited for the apricot-yellow boat driven by Zhao Qing.
But it was different from her fear and confusion.
When Zhao Qing saw the scene in the city, he actually showed a hint of regret.
"It was a bit far off, I missed..."
Xiaoyi also stared at the mess on the ground and nodded gently, saying, "It's not bad. It's only two hundred feet away from the Fairy's Qiongtai."
Ye Xi: ???
She opened her cherry lips slightly, wanting to say something, but ultimately swallowed it all back, choosing to quietly follow the three of them and watch.
Seeing her expression like this, Zhao Qing couldn't help but show some surprise, wondering if the child was scared to death.
The aunt's beautiful eyes flickered, as if she was asking for Ye Xi's suggestion. She chuckled and asked, "What do you think of this thing, Fairy Ye?"
However, this time.
However, Ye Xi no longer showed the same doubts and laughter as before.
He just slowly glanced sideways at the three people, his eyes full of loneliness and helplessness.
She whispered softly, "If one misses, we can set off dozens at the same time... Brother, please stop teasing Xi'er."
"Rapidly cut through thirty thousand feet without sacrificing the cultivator's spiritual consciousness and energy..."
"Although the damage caused is not as great as that of many cultivators attacking at the same time, the advantage is that I myself remain unscathed."
"We can attack when advancing and defend when retreating. Utilizing it together with the Netherworld Technique, we can secure these eleven city areas like a fortress..."
Ye Xi now understood it very clearly.
Hong Ning’s biggest shortcoming in Tianxiang City - the lack of manpower - has been perfectly compensated.
With such a giant arrow of terrifying power at hand, he could retreat to defend the Sand Gold Territory or advance to attack the ancient tribes!
Zhou Xiaoyi has become the same chess player as Nangong of the Xia family.
The girl pursed her lips and remained silent for a moment. Then, her almond-shaped eyes swept over Zhou Xiaoyi, and she exchanged a playful look with Zhao Qing before she said with a smile, "My senior brother and I had an agreement in the Palace of Life in Desire City."
"There's no need to remind her all the time... Xi'er knows what's best for her."
"As for the forging of these strange arrows, the Mirror Lake defended by Wushuang, the secrets hidden in Miao Jian's body, the toy in Xiaoyi's hand, and the origins of the various fairies... I'll show Ye Xi around when I have some free time."
"The chances of Tianxiang walking away are slim, but the bait thrown by Senior Brother is enough to comfort me for this trip."
Seeing Ye Xi's sincere words, Zhao Qing immediately smiled kindly: "We haven't hidden anything from you. Can't you enter the Mirror Lake Secret Realm at will? Do you still need to discuss it with Wushuang?"
Ye Xi:?
She smiled and glared at the man, then her slender hands slightly clenched and her almond-shaped eyes dimmed for a moment. She was actually facing three people who had opened their life palaces and forcibly used secret methods to impose a soul ban on themselves!
"There are gains and losses. As long as Hong Ning Si He is still in Tianxiang, Xi'er is willing to help."
The girl laughed lightly, waved her slender hands playfully, and threw the soul-binding item that concerned her life and property... to Zhou Xiaoyi without a care.
"Leave it to Fairy Zhou, and remember to return it to me in the future."
"Senior Brother Zhao will be teaching the Blood Robe later, so I'll be busy now."
Say it.
The charming girl twisted her slender waist and disappeared on the gorgeous spiritual feathers... in the smoke and dust that had not yet dissipated.
He didn't ask any more questions and didn't put forward any conditions!
He just threw it casually, risking his life and death, without any hesitation or delay.
The soul of the Tianxiang Protector has not yet been determined.
However, the soul of Fairy Ye, the young master of Yuelian Sect, was handed over directly. It seemed that no matter whether Hong Ning could become a walking Tianxiang, she would not have any regrets in the future.
Zhao Qing was naturally surprised by this.
He took the soul tablet from his aunt's hand and examined it carefully. It was indeed the same as Qin Chuxin's soul tablet, and it was related to Ye Xi's life and death.
Can……
But he and his aunt originally just wanted to whet Ye Xi's appetite so that he would be more cautious when making decisions in the future.
What the hell, did I use too much force?
"This is a truly ruthless person..."
Jiang Yinghan sighed softly, obviously very impressed by Ye Xi's decisiveness and decision.
Zhao Qing nodded slowly in agreement, chuckling helplessly, "If we fail to send Ning'er to Tianxiangxing, we will actually owe them too much."
No matter what Ye Xi's plan is, she is destined to work for Ning Mei for free in Tianxiang City.
Thoughts were flowing in the aunt's beautiful eyes, and she seemed to be thinking about something. She took Ye Xi's soul tablet back from her husband, put it into the storage ring with great care, and placed it between her marriage certificate.
After all, it will be returned to the owner in the future, so it cannot be damaged in any way.
Thinking of this, my aunt couldn't help but show a playful look in her eyes, and whispered teasingly: "Fairy Ye is the one who teased us all. She eats people's hearts."
Eat human hearts?
Jiang Yinghan looked up in surprise, unable to react for a moment.
What a thousand-year-old fox spirit that must eat human hearts...
However, Zhao Qing understood Xiaoyi's meaning instantly. At least... Ye Xi had Xiaoyi under his control, so Hun Jianduan wouldn't have any mishaps, and she wouldn't be threatened in the future.
It was just thrown to me casually, and my whole family had to protect it with all their heart.
Even if an accident really happened and this soul tablet was snatched by someone in Tianxiang City, there would be Tianxiang's city guards to protect Ye Xi's life and soul.
But no matter what, this favor must be accepted and remembered.
The Yin Hua in my mind vibrated lightly.
The scene in the Yangxin Palace in the capital of Chu emerged. The white-haired girl leaned back leisurely on the dragon throne: "We played tricks on them, and they exchanged their sincerity with us. We lost, brother."
Zhao Qing didn't think anything of it. At most, he felt a little ashamed for his previous caution.
However, when they were wary of Ye Xi, Ye Xi was obviously also wary of them.
Now that the barriers are gone and everything is ready, it is natural to...
"Yinghan will return to Jinghu to arrange for mass production. Xiaoyi and I will go to Shajin Realm to teach the Dharma. If you need anything, just go directly to Shuyue and Ning'er."
Jiang Yinghan then took out his own spirit boat, stepped onto it, and chuckled as he calculated, "With the resources and production capacity we have right now, six hundred rockets are more than enough."
Zhao Qing had expected this, so he said goodbye to Yinghan very easily and took Xiaoyi to the Shajin Secret Realm.
All that was left behind was the devastation and scorched earth.
Now that Ye Xi is no longer a concern, Zhao Qing and Xiaoyi discussed the situation again and felt that the Xia family was nothing special, and the Huangfu family was even more of a gambler. It seemed that they already had half of Tianxiang City in their hands.
Sure enough, all fear comes from insufficient firepower, an eternal truth.
……
It didn't take long.
In the Thousand Peaks Secret Realm of the Dongren Territory, a charming and charming young woman appeared. She observed everyone mining the black ore with curiosity, and even offered to help with some small gestures while chatting and laughing...
Ye Xi did not go to summon fellow Taoist Xue Yi, but handed the matter over to Senior Sister Mu. Instead, he wandered around lazily and came to Qianfeng Realm.
Thinking about the fact that your life and death are now in the hands of others.
Far from being anxious, the girl was full of anticipation and amusement, as if she didn't take it to heart at all.
The girl lazily leaned on the Spirit Feather and floated, swaying between towering peaks. She actually began to yearn for what would happen after Tianxiang City...
She has already figured out everyone around her these days.
Zhao Qing took her soul tablet and might threaten, tease, or even play with it...
Si He took her soul tablet, so he shouldn't care too much.
If Hong Ning took her soul tablet, it would be the same as losing her life.
Gu Qinghuan is even less suitable, it would be better to hand it over to Zhao Qing.
But if Shuyue and Xiaoyi took her soul tablet, it would be absolutely safe. Once they left Tianxiang City, it would be returned intact in an instant.
Especially Shuyue!
The reason why she was willing to help Hong Ning out of sincerity was not the so-called rocket, nor was it any toy or suspicion, and it had nothing to do with the dispute over Tianxiang.
Her chances of climbing up and walking were slim to begin with, and once she became a walking being, she would be even more severely coerced by the entire ancient Ye family.
As for whether Hong Ning can become a walking being, she will just try her best.
Her bold decision was simply because she discovered something even more novel.
It was more alluring than even walking on the heavenly fragrance... a new world that was a thousand times more dreamy than this Zhongzhou that had been struggling for decades.
Maybe in Yongning Prefecture, maybe in the outside world, maybe on the immortal road, maybe... it's the first sight when you step out of Zhongzhou.
Zhao Qing was obviously not an ordinary cultivator, and was completely different from other cultivators in Yujing.
How could he understand the spiritual insights beyond the smoke? How could he possess four supreme spiritual roots?
What is Shen Su's origin? What is Si He's identity?
Ye Xi herself didn't understand what kind of decision she had made. Even her guess that Xiaoyi would return her soul tablet was just a guess.
But there is only one thing.
Ever since she bumped into this group of people, a dream she had never experienced before began to unfold.
The novelty of the outside world, the mundane fireworks, and the splendor of the immortal road are all completely different from the splendor of Zhongzhou.
In another dream, the years seem like aged wine, and the mountains, rivers and land are vast and boundless.
Why is Gu Qinghuan such a person? Is he born with dementia?
Why did Jiang Yinghan say those things? Could he be an alien?
Why is Zhao Qing so kind to those around him? Has he never been cheated before?
……
All these things made her feel that she had lived in a remote and secluded barren mountain.
The entanglement between the seven ancient clans in the four sacred places of Zhongzhou is undoubtedly a dead and barren mountain.
She helped Chu Hongning not for personal gain.
But for yourself.
She wanted to use this opportunity to... escape from Zhongzhou and embark on another dream.
This choice.
There will never be any mistakes.
