When we returned to the previous canyon, it was already dawn the next day.

Stone Snake wanted to find a deserted place to kill the [Island Travel Demon] and obtain the system again. According to his understanding, Qi Rusong killed the traveler carrying the system and obtained the Wind Cave.

Then if he kills this [Island Traveling Demon], he will also gain access to the opponent's system, and even if it doesn't work, a wind cave will be created.

But Qi Rusong did not agree with this approach. He needed to send the prisoner to Mawuna, and the demon hunting sect disciples responsible for interrogating the prisoner would obtain more information.

The two argued over this for a long time.

Finally, under Su Yu's persuasion, Stone Snake agreed to escort the [Island Travel Demon] back to Ma Wen.

For safety reasons, Qi Rusong arranged for four demon hunters to escort him. Two demon hunters were killed in the last battle.

There are still forty-four people in the team now.

Little is known about the demon crystal jade and the time-traveling demon. They still need to risk their lives and go deep into the rear.

There is darkness in Gray Wind Gorge. For most of the day, the boulders and mountains on both sides block the sun. People and horses walk in the shadows, and their breath is frosted in the air-conditioning.

The ice-covered water trickled down from the snow piles above the head and fell to the ground, forming a small frozen pool, which was then trampled by the horses' hooves and shattered. A few weeds broke out from the cracks in the rocks, and occasionally there were a few pale spots.

Lichens, but there was no grass here, and they were advancing over the forest.

The path is steep and narrow, spiraling upwards, and when it reaches the mountain, it is so narrow that we can only advance in single file.

Qi Rusong walked at the front of the team, with the demon sword in hand, looking into the distance to conduct reconnaissance.

Su Yu followed him restlessly, looking back from time to time as if she heard something following him.

Since acquiring Wei Laogui's system, the girl has always been able to sense danger.

According to the information of [Island Traveling Demon], [Soul Body] will detect the negative emotions of living beings such as [fear, anger, greed, lust for money, arrogance] and maximize their negative emotions, thus occupying them and becoming a body that can only

The murderous walking dead.

Therefore, Qi Rushong asked the Stone Snake to walk at the back of the team, pull out its long claws, and be on guard carefully, always paying attention to everyone's changes.

The top of the gorge is a wind-eroded gray stone arch. From here down, the road widens and gradually drops.

Finally, Qin Ke suggested that the team rest here before the shadow grows.

Qi Rusong agreed with this.

Riding in the sun can indeed dispel the bone-chilling chill, but it is also full of dangers. There is already an eight-person monster investigation team at the mouth of the gorge. There will be more the deeper you go, and you may encounter them at any time.

Su Yu curled up in her cloak and fell asleep almost immediately.

Qin Ke distributed the dried meat in his backpack to everyone, while Stone Snake called several demon hunters to feed the horses.

Qi Rusong found a secluded corner, sat down with his back against the rock, and began to sharpen the demon sword Dragon Light.

Stone Snake finished his work and stepped forward. "Rusong," he said, "regarding the time-traveling demon, are you sure Lord Marvin won't kill him?"

"I have already promised you this." Qi Rusong said, "Don't keep thinking about [the system], it will expose you. Also, you acted too abnormally when you killed the time-traveling monster before."

"Hey, let me tell you, you don't understand the hatred between our country and our family!"

"I know, you have said it many times!" Qi Rushong said, "Any world respects the strong. Doesn't the earth you talk about respect the hegemony of the United States?

Revenge must be avenged, but you can't just talk about it. Only when you are strong can you not be bullied."

"Hey, you're right."

"Well, after this mission is completed, how about you and I practicing in seclusion?" Qi Rushong said.

"Retreat?"

"Yes, I need to practice the Qi family's secret skills to perfection, and you also need to practice the control of spiritual energy. The dignified [Fourth-level Great Sword Master] cannot even do whatever he wants with his sword energy. If he meets a strong person, his identity will be revealed."

"Strong men..." Stone Snake thought thoughtfully, "Can you tell me who are the strong men in Daxia?"

Qi Rusong tested the edge of the sword with his thumb. "I was born in the Southern Realm and have never been to the other four realms. The strongest person in the Southern Realm should be my father. His strength has reached the [Seventh Level Sword King]."

My brother hired a strong man with half of his salary who has the strength of [middle-level Sword Master of the sixth level]. There is also a senior of the Demon Hunting Sect who lives in seclusion in the mountains and has the strength of the late level of the sixth-level sword master.

Master Marvin should be between the [Late Stage Five Sword King] and the [Early Stage Sixth Stage Sword Lord]. He has never made a move for several years, so it is unknown what his strength is. The remaining [Fifth Level Sword King] are less than thirty strong

people."

"What about [Fourth-level Great Swordsman]? There are very few of them, right?" Stone Snake's eyes were full of expectation.

"No!" Qi Rushong said, "[Fourth-level Great Sword Master] can compress the sword body with spiritual energy to form a spiritual sword and swallow it in his mouth. [Fifth-level Sword King] can activate the spiritual sword in his mouth with spiritual energy.

This ability requires both maintaining the sword body and controlling the spiritual sword. It requires mastery of spiritual energy control, which is also the most difficult bottleneck to break through."

I heard all this from Marvin, who himself has not reached this level and cannot understand the difficulties involved.

"It's a bit like the Eastern cultivator's journey through tribulation!" Stone Snake said with a smile. "I want to ask you a question."

"What?"

At this time, Stone Snake showed an evil smile. "Have you ever touched a woman?"

"You... don't make fun of me." Qi Rushong pursed his lips angrily and said, "I, a disciple of the Demon Hunting Sect, do not marry wives or have children."

"Rusong, you are too strict with yourself. This kind of virtue is definitely for singles on our planet. Women won't like an idiot like you." He patted his knee, "Forget it, what I actually want to ask is,

Su Yu, how do you plan to arrange it?"

"I don't know..." Qi Rusong said uneasily.

"Hetui, you scumbag!" Stone Snake said scornfully, "If you like her, let's be together. Why is it so complicated? If you don't like her, just reject her decisively. You will be ambiguous all day long, but you won't give anyone a love. I look down on you."

Qi Rusong looked solemn, "You don't know my difficulties..."

"What kind of difficulties are there? It's not difficult. It's hard work, it's not hard, it's okay, just act like a man. Have you not seen how many wives Old Ghost Wei has?" Stone Snake said angrily.

"He is not a disciple of the Demon Hunting Sect? This world is monogamous, who cares about him if he has so many girls? Strength means everything, understand?"

Qi Rusong ignored him on the surface, but was filled with emotions in his heart.

"Forget it, let's not say much, let's sleep for a while. There are still many leagues of road ahead, and it is dangerous. We need to conserve our strength."

He knew he couldn't sleep, but he understood that Stone Snake did have good intentions. He immediately stood up and walked to Su Yu's side. Then he sat down cross-legged, took off his coat and put it on her body.

Closing his eyes, he dreamed of his father.

The last time we got together might have been our last. Now they were separated by the world. He only felt a deep emptiness and a tearing pain. The canyon was vast and cold, and he was so small and lost.

Suddenly, he felt a killing intent.

When he opened his eyes, he saw several Demon Hunting Sect disciples holding long swords to chop down their sleeping companions.

Their eyes are as bright as blue stars, full of chill.

There is [Soul Body!] nearby
