This is Brother Zhao being ignorant and ignorant, this is the Arcane Art that came from the Seven Stars Savage Beast's Magma Dragon Beast, it is definitely not that simple. Wu Shuangjie shook his head and asked.

The Magma Dragon Beasts themselves weren't considered very strong amongst the Seven Star Savage Beast, but they were able to move unhindered underground. They were good at sneak attacks, and ordinary formations were unable to trap them at all. Gu Ruoqing knew a lot about these Savage Beast, and slowly explained them to them.

The Arcane Art that Li Qingniu had grasped was the innate ability that the Broad Dragon Beast relied on the most. It could be said that if he wanted to escape, there was no one in the Azure Sun City who could stop him! Wu Shuangjie also nodded his head and said with a bit of envy.

Flee? Why should I run? Just then, Li Qingniu's figure suddenly appeared from the sand surface, and asked curiously, previously he relied on the Arcane Art, and walked under the surface of the ground, only then did he surface.

Hehe! You brat, you've finally come out. I thought you were hiding in the ground and doing bad things! Seeing Li Qingniu appearing, Wu Shuang Jie laughed as he ran over.

Bad news! What's wrong, I... I didn't see anything! It was originally Wu Shuangjie's unintentional words, but it made the usually carefree Li Qingniu suddenly turn bashful. He stuttered as if he was a guilty conscience, and did not even dare look at the Gu Ruoqing who was standing in her green dress.

The Raging Sparrow Dragon Beast's Arcane Art could not only conceal its presence underground, it could also allow one to travel unhindered, and it could even obtain a view of the ground surface. Just now, when he passed by Gu Ruoqing's side, he had inadvertently caught a glimpse of the scenery under her skirt.

Fortunately, although Gu Ruoqing had noticed Li Qingniu's abnormality, she did not think too much about it. Her bright eyes looked at Li Qingniu for a while before mustering the courage to ask: "Mr. Li, where are you going next?"

I want to go out and take a look. I want to see if the world outside the Xiao Man Village is really as dangerous as Grandma Long said! Li Qingniu didn't think too much and blurted out the thoughts in his mind.

Then, would Mister Li be willing to join my Gu's Merchant Group? Don't worry, our Gu's Merchant Group will definitely not treat you unfairly, so as long as we can pay you back then, we can negotiate about all the benefits. Gu Ruoqing's eyes were filled with anticipation, the strength of this young man in front of her forced her to treat him with caution.

But to Gu Ruoqing's disappointment, even though he had lowered himself to such a low level, Li Qingniu still shook his head and refused:

I can't join your Gu's Merchant Group, I still have something very important to do!

However, he then continued, However, I can temporarily go to the Qingyang Barren City with you two. If there is anything that your Gu's Merchant Group can help with, just open your mouth to ask. Grandma Long had said before, when the water flows down, when it rises up again, I will naturally repay you guys for saving my life.

Li Qingniu spoke very sincerely, especially when he said that he was very weak, he was extremely confident, as if not allowing anyone to refute him. Wu Shuang Jie and Steward Zhao almost rolled their eyes: If you are weak, then what about people like us?

Great! Hearing this, Gu Ruoqing was overjoyed. Her pretty face was like the spring breeze blowing across her face, and the worry on her face had disappeared quite a bit. Under the light of the bonfire, her face became even brighter.

The crisis in her Merchant Group over the past few days had always been a haze that she couldn't let go of. Now that she had such a powerful helper like Li Qingniu, it made her taut heart feel a lot more relaxed.

Miss, I have an idea. Since Brother Li is willing to help us, our Gu's Merchant Group cannot treat him unfairly. How about I give it to Brother Li? Just then, Wu Shuang Jie suddenly said. He had promised Li Qingniu to introduce him to Martial Soul Institute, but with his relationship, at most, he could send him to the lower court.

With me making the decisions for the Merchant Group, the spots aren't really a problem, it's just that Mr. Li … Hearing that, Gu Ruoqing thought for a moment, then nodded her head, and asked Li Qingniu.

Brother Li, didn't you want to become stronger? What are you hesitating for? Entering the Martial Spirit Courtyard, with your talent, I can guarantee that you will awaken a powerful Martial Spirit! Seeing that Li Qingniu was still confused, Wu Shuang Jie agreed on his behalf.

If awakening a Martial Spirit can really make me stronger, then I must enter the Martial Arts Academy! Hearing that it could make him stronger, Li Qingniu immediately nodded his head and agreed.

The bonfire dispersed, and dawn finally arrived. The caravan set out early, and after a long journey, they finally reached the end of the desolate desert. The vegetation along the road gradually flourished, and by noon, they finally arrived outside an ancient city.

Compared to the vast and endless Wildland, it was like a tiny meteor in the vast ocean. However, it was the only place where humans lived together, and also the place where all the tribes of the wilderness gathered. As a result, it was rather bustling and bustling with life, and was rather bustling with life.

The travel-worn merchant group slowly walked towards a tall city gate. Steward Zhao and a few others got off the carriage and went forward to talk with the armored guards who were blocking the way.

Li Qingniu was curiously sizing up this vast city. This was his first time seeing a human city, his Xiao Man Village was much larger than the city he had lived in for more than ten years, and a tall city wall made of green boulders guarded the city tightly. On the wall, there were all kinds of blade and axe beast prints that could be seen, and there were even some bloodstains that could still be seen, recounting the cruelty and brilliance that it had experienced before.

Haha! It must be my father and the others!

Suddenly, an extremely happy voice was heard from within the city walls.

Father, is it done? Eh, Steward Zhao! Why are you still alive? Haha … Could it be that someone as loyal as you has betrayed the main bloodline of the Gu's? A well-dressed young man led a few people and rushed out of the city excitedly. He first called out loudly, then upon seeing that it was Steward Zhao who was in the midst of negotiating with the investigation armored riders, he was startled, and spoke with some disdain.

When Steward Zhao saw the man in luxurious clothing suddenly come over, his expression became extremely unfriendly, and quickly retreated back to the side of Gu Ruoqing's carriage.

Gu Tianyi! Gu Ruoqing alighted from the carriage, and her beautiful eyes stared fixedly at the well-dressed man riding on the large horse. Her words carried a sinister hatred.

Gu Ruoqing! How can you still treat me like this when things are like this? Where is my father? This scene was different from what he had imagined. When he had come out excited, the person who should have come out to meet him should have been his father, Gu Mucheng. How did he become the Gu Ruoqing who was supposed to be a captive?

There was no need to look for him. Gu Mucheng had colluded with the wild bandits to harm the little miss. He had been killed in the first place! When the Steward Zhao said this, the crowd near the city gate were all attracted. This kind of internal conflict was naturally what the common folk were most interested in.

This was impossible! Steward Zhao, don't you dare slander us! Gu Tianyi's face became extremely ugly. He naturally knew that the schemes of the father and son couldn't be announced to the public, and would cause them to fall into a trap within the Qingyang Barren City. Even if he succeeded, he wouldn't be able to get his name straight, and would be poked in the spine.

How was this impossible? This was Gu Mucheng's family plate, all the merchants present could testify to this! Gu Ruoqing took out a green order badge with Gu Mucheng's number engraved on it. Gu Tianyi immediately recognized that it was his father's personal order, and she was extremely grieved, she almost staggered and fell off her horse.

I don't believe it! You must be lying to me, my father spent a huge amount of money to get a 5-star esper to help him, how could he fail! He still found it hard to accept. His mind was in a mess as he started babbling nonsense, unintentionally revealing their secret plans.

Sure enough, I knew that this Gu's branch had coveted for a long time, I never thought that they would use such a sinister method, it is truly shameless! In the midst of the crowd, a Fighter loudly spoke, causing the surrounding people to agree with his words, many of them looking at Gu Tianyi with unfriendly expressions.

Soldier Zhao, this is an internal matter of my Gu's Merchant Group, so please disperse all these random people here! Gu Tianyi was enraged by the contemptuous stares directed at him by the surrounding people, and shouted at the captain of the guards who was guarding the city wall.

The captain surnamed Zhao hesitated for a moment before waving his hand to allow his subordinates to disperse the crowd.

Wasn't it because her elder sister had married into the Mayor Palace to become a concubine? What is there to be arrogant about … The indignant Fighter wanted to say more, but he couldn't stop the surrounding armored warriors. He was forced into the city, and outside the city, there were only the two sides of the Gu's and one group of armored soldiers.

I suspect that these people are colluding with bandits to murder my father. I would like to ask the soldiers to capture all of them. As for her, she is a felon.

Waiting until the crowd dispersed, Gu Tianyi's cold gaze swept across everyone before landing on Gu Ruoqing, his mouth revealing an evil smile, and various evil thoughts arose in his mind. The pain of losing his father, had made him go crazy, he had already thought of a way to deal with Gu Ruoqing.

Gu Tianyi, you two are indeed a pair of father and son. Both of you are sinister and despicable! Gu Ruoqing was infuriated by his shameless attitude of inverting black and white, and could not care about his ladylike demeanor anymore, as he scolded.
