Chapter 78 - 68 Yanzhi Mountain

Chapter 78: Chapter 68 Yanzhi Mountain "How dare you!"

No one expected that Liu Suiyun would suddenly erupt. With a roar, his left hand had already formed a tiger shape and grabbed towards An Zhiyu's collar. This grab was extremely powerful and carried infinite anger. Let alone a mere An Zhiyu, even a table would be smashed by Liu Suiyun.

However, after the fierce wind sound, it was Liu Suiyun who took two steps back. Before his grab could even touch An Zhiyu's collar, it was as if he had hit a copper wall and an iron wall. His tiger's mouth was hot, and his whole body involuntarily took half a step back.

An Zhiyu was also in a bad situation. His entire pale face suddenly turned livid, and he took several steps back in succession. He uttered harsh words: "Commander Xing, don't be ungrateful. This is the Tianma Plain!"

"Without my order, you can't take anyone away alone!" An Zhiyu's face darkened, and there was already a mass of green shadows on his fingertips. He was ready to fight with Liu Suiyun at any time: "I value you, not to offer my face for you to hit. You should think about your old friends!"

Even so, he was secretly shocked by Liu Suiyun's bare-handed strike just now. This person practices both martial arts and cultivation. For this treasure hunt, he is an extremely rare help!

Liu Suiyun glanced at An Zhiyu. Sure enough, the fourteenth level of Qi Refining is the fourteenth level of Qi Refining. With his strike as fierce as a tiger, an ordinary late-stage Qi Refining cultivator would definitely be hit. His expression became gentle again: "Okay, for the sake of old friends, I'll accompany you on this trip. But there is one prerequisite, that is, I don't care how many newcomers on the Tianma Plain you use to fill it. None of my old friends can be touched!"

"Commander Xing is really straightforward!" An Zhiyu's face was filled with smiles: "We'd better start early rather than late. Let's set off tomorrow morning!"

After saying that, An Zhiyu walked back slowly and feebly. But Liu Suiyun dared not be careless. Just now, although he only used 30% of his strength in that strike, it was not something an ordinary cultivator could handle. For an old cultivator whose lifespan is about to end, no one knows how many trump cards he has hidden.

This time, there will be more troubles on the Tianma Plain again!

Guo Huijun also put away her spear and turned to leave. Although she was involved in this matter, she had just learned the real inside story. She still had many questions in her heart.

Liu Suiyun watched Guo Huijun walk far away before asking Xia Jingjue who was standing guard nearby: "Is there any more wine?"

"Yes!"

Xia Jingjue threw over the entire sheepskin bag. Liu Suiyun didn't use wine utensils either. He directly picked up the sheepskin bag and took a big gulp, but still seemed unsatisfied: "Unexpectedly, in just two years, so many things have changed. Lao Xia, what's the matter with Zhaori? Is it because of this woman?"

Xia Jingjue could only give a wry smile. He had witnessed all the conflicts just now: "If it weren't for Miss Guo taking care of me, I would have fallen in the Valley of Royal Tombs! Miss Guo is a good person. Commander, don't misunderstand her. If it weren't for her taking care of our old brothers, I'm afraid at least one-third fewer people would be drinking today."

This time Liu Suiyun was really angry: "What's the matter with Zhaori! If I had known it was like this back then, I would never have allowed him to bring you all to the Tianma Plain!"

As he spoke, he angrily hit his own head. And Xia Jingjue could only shake his head: "This is all caused by An Zhiyu. As for Lao Xu, everyone thinks he is too selfless."

"Selfless?" Liu Suiyun could only say: "You mean I'm forming cliques for personal gain."

Xia Jingjue and Liu Suiyun were life-and-death friends and were not afraid of offending Liu Suiyun. He directly said: "Commander, you know Lao Xu's problem. He is inclined towards the true immortal path. Whether it's me or you, in his eyes, we are all ants. He never particularly values anyone or pays more attention to anyone. He only looks at who has real abilities and can show real skills on the battlefield."

Liu Suiyun couldn't help but sigh. He understood the meaning in Xia Jingjue's words. Perhaps Xu Zhaori has been cultivating immortality for a long time and has lost a lot of human touch. Liu Suiyun doesn't know what he did on the Tianma Plain, but some old things in Tianji County are still vivid in his memory.

Xia Jingjue has always treated newcomers and old-timers equally and never takes special care of anyone. He is even unwilling to invest too much emotion in his subordinates. It seems that everyone is just a pawn he uses. Yes, just a pawn. Sometimes Liu Suiyun feels that he is just a pawn in Xu Zhaori's hands.

He can barely understand this perspective. In the eyes of a real immortal, everyone except oneself is an ant. Who will consider the feelings of ants.

But Liu Suiyun is different. He closely follows Yan Ruojiang and naturally learns Yan Ruojiang's various styles. Yan Ruojiang likes to take care of his own people. So Liu Suiyun wholeheartedly forms a small group and devotes himself to managing a small circle. He even doesn't forget to win over friends from all aspects. When there are things that Yan Ruojiang is inconvenient to do, only Liu Suiyun can lower his face.

At that time, although Liu Suiyun couldn't be said to be involved in all kinds of vices like eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling, the amount of money spent on debauchery every month from the accounting room and the small treasury was by no means a small sum. After the war with the Gu family, Yan Ruojiang and Liu Suiyun paid more attention to winning people's hearts. Therefore, saying that he forms cliques for personal gain and Xu Zhaori is selfless cannot be completely right, nor can it be completely wrong.

Thinking of these past events, Liu Suiyun could only ask: "Tell me where that tomb is?"

"It's in the area around Yanchi Mountain. It covers nearly a thousand miles in circumference. That place is extremely strange. In the past year or so, just to explore the periphery clearly, we have already lost more than five hundred brothers!"

As Xia Jingjue said this, Liu Suiyun was so angry that he stomped his feet: "Xu Zhaori, Xu Zhaori! One-third of these are our old brothers. One-third!"

But Xia Jingjue's answer was beyond Liu Suiyun's expectation: "We have indeed lost a lot of old brothers. But everyone has come out of real battles. What kind of scenes haven't we seen? In Tianji, after a tough battle, often three or four hundred brothers will be lost. The problem is that whether it's newcomers or old-timers, the compensation for burial and pensions is the same number, and even the burial scenes are the same."

People always hope for equality for everyone, but what they look forward to even more is that they are more equal than others. This is clearly revealed in this matter.

According to Xia Jingjue, Xu Zhaori has done a very comprehensive job in arranging the aftermath. The compensation for burial and pensions is very sufficient, and the burial scene is also grand enough. Guo Huijun also often asks about people's well-being. But the problem is that what the old brothers in Tianji County want is not such comprehensiveness. What they want is just a little more grand scene than the newcomers.

But Xu Zhaori is so selfless. People from heaven will not consider the feelings of ants on the ground. The praises of the newcomers on the Tianma Plain have sunk to the hearts of the old people.

And the more such things happen, the more the old people remember Liu Suiyun's kindness. So when he calls out, everyone responds. This time, not only the old people from Liu Suiyun's small group have come. Except for a few die-hard followers of Xu Zhaori, almost all the old people from Tianji have come.

Liu Suiyun sighed again: "So it's like this... Zhaori is confused. If he were willing to put in effort, I couldn't have poached his people. With his abilities, I couldn't take away a single old brother!"

But Xia Jingjue thrust the tip of his spear into the ground and knelt down in front of Liu Suiyun: "Please rest assured, Commander. No matter how many benefits Master Xu gives, I, Xia Jingjue, only know about Madam, only know about Commander Yan, and only know about Commander Xing. Wherever the Commander goes, I will follow. Also, the old brothers in our team will definitely follow the Commander. I can't say more, but at least thirty or forty people will follow!"

Liu Suiyun sighed again. He knew that this was not his own credit. He thought of those two women again and then said: "So tomorrow I will accompany Old Man An and Zhaori on this trip. Not for anything else, just for your trust. Even if it's a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I'll accept it."

"Not to mention it's just a mere Yanchi Mountain. Come on, let's go back and drink well. While drinking, let's talk to our brothers about Yanchi Mountain..."

"That's Yanchi Mountain!" Seaʀᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Guo Huijun had already gripped her silver spear tightly and could rush into Yanchi Mountain at any time. In the entire team, she has always been in such a leading role.

But Liu Suiyun looked at Yanchi Mountain and his expression became solemn: "Have you ever gone deep into the tomb of True Lord Beihe?"

Now, as far as Liu Suiyun can see, in addition to the endless hills of Yanchi Mountain, there are bones everywhere.

This is a real desert. Liu Suiyun feels that every breath he takes carries a faint aura of killing. This place is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface. According to the news he obtained from a group of old comrades-in-arms, there are endless crises here. In some places, the danger is even greater than that of Luoxing Mountain.

Just to figure out the specific situation on the periphery of Yanchi Mountain, Xu Zhaori's group of bandits has paid more than five hundred lives. Among them are many strong men at the levels of fighting tigers and refining bones. Many fierce beasts in the mountains already have astonishing abilities. And unlike Luoxing Mountain, there are often hundreds or thousands of beast herds active here. Once they surround, it's everywhere.

I don't know how such a desert and hilly area can support such a large number of beast herds. Therefore, Liu Suiyun feels that he must figure out the situation before deciding on the next step.

Guo Huijun retracted her silver spear and looked at Liu Suiyun. Now she dare not underestimate this Commander Xing in front of her. It's not because Liu Suiyun neatly won over more than a hundred old people, but because Liu Suiyun is really a guy who can turn his face at any time.

His attack on An Zhiyu left a very deep impression in her mind. And not long ago, he almost had a conflict with Xu Zhaori. The reason was only that several old people from Tianji were conscripted into this treasure hunt team. In the end, it was only when Xia Jingjue personally said that everyone participated voluntarily that Liu Suiyun's anger was suppressed.

So Guo Huijun thought for a long time before answering Liu Suiyun's question: "Don't worry. Zhaori and I have both entered the tomb..."
