Chapter 227 The story

The wind chime stared at Xia Zhanhong, how high the blue veins on her neck were stretched. The four of them had spent a year on this mission, but they were about to complete it, but Xia Zhanhong asked them to leave and wanted to take it alone, which was something she could not accept no matter what.

The reward for this mission was really important to them. Even though they knew that Xia Zhanhong had superb cultivation and ruthless methods, Feng Ling would never let go.

Xia Zhanhong looked at the cock-fighting wind chime and smiled slightly: "Captain, don't be excited first. I'm not going to swallow your mission. Listen to me first... How much reward will He Ming promise you for taking this mission?"

When Feng Ling heard Xia Zhanhong say this, he breathed a little relieved, but his face was still covered with frost. He said lightly: "He promised us that after the matter is done, he will give us three thousand blue crystals a reward!"

"Three thousand blue crystals are really a lot!" Xia Zhanhong thought for a while and said to Fengling: "You have heard those people just now. The guard may come at any time. If we continue to move forward, it will be difficult to avoid them! Even if we avoid them, we will not be able to enter the city. The opponents of He Ming and his clan have probably made some arrangements long ago..."

After a moment of pause, Xia Zhanhong continued, "Captain, you should not rush to this muddy water! As for the reward, I will pay you first. Let me deal with the subsequent matters. I will take He Ming back!"

After Xia Zhanhong finished speaking, He Ming walked up from behind and looked at Xia Zhanhong with some embarrassment: "But I don't have that much money now! I can only pay when I get home!"

Xia Zhanhong smiled and said, "It's okay, I'll give this reward. Just give it to me again when you look back!"

While speaking, Xia Zhanhong took out three jade bottles from his arms, reached out to pull out the bottle plug, handed it to the wind chime, and whispered: "Each jade bottle has ten Qi-replenishing pills, which should be enough for the price of three thousand blue crystals!"

"Ah!" Feng Ling opened her mouth in surprise, looked at the pills in the jade bottle, then looked up at Xia Zhanhong, looking a little embarrassed: "Brother! I'm sorry, I misunderstood you just now... A Qi-replenishing pill is at least 120 blue crystals! If you give us thirty pieces, you will lose a lot... Moreover, there is one of yours in this mission..."

He stretched out his hand and took the two jade bottles from Xia Zhanhong's hand. Fengling smiled and said, "Brother, we only need twenty pills..."

Xia Zhanhong looked at the wind chime, nodded in his heart, and then put the remaining bottle into her hand: "Actually, I want to thank you too! It is a fate to meet you. Even if I give this bottle of pill to the captain!"

Seeing Feng Ling's eyes full of doubt, Xia Zhanhong did not explain, but just laughed softly: "Captain, you guys hurry up and go back. If you delay any further, the guard might really arrive!"

"Then you take He Ming alone, what if you meet the guard?" Feng Ling asked with some concern.

Xia Zhanhong smiled and said, "Captain Don't worry, I only have one person, the target is small, I have my own way to avoid the guard!" As he said that, he turned around and waved to He Ming: "Let's go, we're going!"

Seeing this, He Ming hurriedly walked to Xia Zhanhong's side in two steps. He could see clearly what happened just now. With Xia Zhanhong's high cultivation level, he naturally felt much more at ease in his heart.

"Captain, Xiaojing, silly cow, monkey! We'll be there later!" Xia Zhanhong bowed, held He Ming's arm with one hand, and pointed his toes slightly, and his figure flashed out of the canyon and disappeared into the yellow light.

At this time, Xiaojing, Hanniu, and Monkey came around and looked at the jade bottle in Fengling's hand, and felt unreal.

After a while, the wind chime capped the bottle and greeted the three of them: "Clean up here, carefully, be careful not to leave clues! Then we set off and return immediately..."

Feng Ling and others processed the five bodies and left quickly! At this time, Xia Zhanhong and He Ming had run dozens of miles. He was not worried about meeting the guards at all. After breaking through to the completion of the martial arts school, the coverage of the book pages was already 150 miles in radius, and he could find the other party's traces early.

While running forward and quickly, Xia Zhanhong asked softly: "He Ming, I have killed five people on the other side. You don't care what happened to the whole thing!"

He Ming thought about it and nodded slightly, "Okay! Let me tell you... Brother Xia, you should know that our Abyss Dark Clan is of level, right!"

Xia Zhanhong said: "I know this. High-ranking clans are all single-word. For example, the three major clans are the Dark Underworld clan, the Dark Overlord clan, and the Dark Royal clan..."

"Yeah!" He Ming nodded and said, "In fact, in addition to the three major clans, there are more than a dozen high-level clans in the abyss. Although they are not as strong as the three major clans, they are all dominating the side."

"Below the high-ranking clans, there are medium-ranking clans, and they all have two characters! And the lower three-character tribe like the beast-taught clans, all are awarded titles by medium-ranking clans! And this title is not permanent, and may be cancelled at any time and become the most insignificant scattered clans!"

Speaking of this, He Ming took a deep breath and continued: "A year ago, our manager, the Dark Dream Clan, handed over the two newly hatched Shadow Black Leopards to us and the Tamed Beast Li clan to raise them separately... But unexpectedly, just a few days later, the Shadow Black Leopard we raised had a problem. He lay still and didn't say anything, and he didn't grow..."

"If the Mengqing clan takes back the Mingbao and finds this situation, not only will the title of our beast-taught clan be cancelled, but I am afraid... My father was anxious and looked for people everywhere to find solutions, but he just couldn't find the reason why the Mingbao didn't grow! Until one time..."

"By chance, my father heard the people who were taming the beast Li clan secretly discussing, and then he knew the reason! It turned out that our Ming leopard was not long. It was them who had secretly attacked our Ming leopard and poisoned us! Once we were cancelled, they could become the only animal trainer, and their status would be extremely stable... At that time, Xiao Ming leopard was extremely irritable every day, so my father had to stay at home to take care of it, and go out to find the detoxification pill, which was the only one that would take care of! What happened later..."

At this time, He Ming stopped and hired Fengling and the others to talk about it. Xia Zhanhong knew it completely.

After hearing He Ming's complete story, Xia Zhanhong lowered his head and fell into deep thought. This matter was a conspiracy and struggle between small tribes, which was far from what he had expected before, and it did not help him in the end to obtain the ninth-grade spirit-gathering fragrance.

"Forget it, after sending this child back, think of other ways! If you can't find a way to get into the clan within three months, you can only enter Tianyan Mountain on the abyss, venture to the land of the king-level monster, and search it little by little... Alas, if this matter can involve the clan, you will have a chance..."

Thinking in his heart, Xia Zhanhong looked up at He Ming and said in a deep voice: "I heard what those people just now meant. They deliberately asked you to go out to find the detoxification pill. I am afraid that your father would have heard of them poisoning before, and it was also intentional to waste time... I am afraid that now, your detoxification pill will be difficult to rescue..."

"Ah?" He Ming was stunned. He thought that what the man meant just now was that he was intercepted by them and did not understand the poison pill. After a year of delay, the Shadow Black Leopard would be unsuccessful... But now when Xia Zhanhong said this, he was suddenly a little stupid.

"What should I do..." He Ming showed an anxious look: "The Shadow Black Leopard cannot be cured, and it delayed the marriage between Miss Meng Yufei and the Prince of the Dark Hong Clan. Our entire clan will be the Mengqing Clan..."

As he spoke, He Ming's eyes became moist. Although his previous actions were already outstanding, he was just a thirteen-year-old child after all. Once he knew that he was unable to make up for the situation, he could no longer control his mood.

"The Hong clan of Darkness! It's also involved with the big clan!" When Xia Zhanhong heard what He Ming said, his eyes lit up and he asked in a low voice: "He Ming, why is the monster related to the marriage of the Prince of Hong clan?"

He Ming choked and said, "The reason why the Mengqing clan let us tame two handsome shadow leopards is to get a show, using the leopard to pull the fragrance cart and send my daughter to get married! But now..."

"The Shadow Leopard is a handsome monster... If you want the handsome monster to pull the cart, it will be impossible not to tame it well!" After learning this news, Xia Zhanhong's mind turned sharply, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Although the ninth-grade spirit-gathering fragrance is controlled by the three major clans, other major clans must have their corresponding share, otherwise they will not be able to maintain their status as the major clan... In this case..." Slowly, a complete plan gradually took shape in Xia Zhanhong's mind.

After a moment, Xia Zhanhong lowered his head and said softly: "He Ming, don't worry. When you arrive at your house, take me to see the Shadow Leopard. Maybe I can find a treatment method!"

"Ah! Brother Xia, can you cure the monsters..." He Ming's anxiety suddenly subsided and he stared at Xia Zhanhong in surprise.

"I can't say this, I'll try it, it may not be possible!" Xia Zhanhong replied.

Hearing this, He Ming's eyes immediately filled with uneasiness.

After that, Xia Zhanhong stopped talking and took He Ming to run quickly. With his current cultivation level, he arrived in half a day. On the way, five or six guards with thousands of people were avoided by him.

"Brother Xia, outside the exit is the Rift Valley. The City of Trading is above the Rift Valley. The city walls almost surround the Rift Valley. If we want to return to my house, we must pass the City of Trading..." He Ming whispered to Xia Zhanhong after hiding behind a rock.

Xia Zhanhong nodded: "When we came here just now, there was a team of more than 40 warriors. We will quietly follow them behind them so as not to attract attention!"

After the words came, Xia Zhanhong and He Ming stood up and moved towards the entrance of the passage bit by bit.

No, a large group of people came from a distance. When they were about to reach the entrance of the cave, Xia Zhanhong suddenly exerted force, and two unrecognizable phantoms rushed out from behind the rock, followed silently at the last part of the team. After a moment, he passed the exit.
