Qing Ge comprehended the six battle tactics tablets and gained the recognition of the Demon Sword!
This news was like a thunderclap, resounding over the sky above Jianluo King City, shocking everyone.
Qing Ge is just a mixed-blood who came all the way from the Senluo King Realm to be a son-in-law.
As a result, this person first boasted that he would sweep away his contemporaries and make a name for himself, which was already surprising.
Who would have thought that this was just the beginning.
This was so outrageous that people found it hard to believe.
Over countless years of history, so many pure-bloods have failed to do this, so how can he, a mixed-blood, do it?
The most outrageous thing is that many people have heard rumors that the magic sword even slipped into Qingge's hands by itself.
This really made a lot of people feel ridiculous.
They all thought it was fiction and absolutely ridiculous.
What is the magic sword?
The clan's sacred weapon, the weapon of the Holy Ancestor Mangcang, is extremely proud.
There have been so many geniuses in the history of Burning Moon Domain, but none of them have caught its eye.
Now you tell me that it took the initiative to jump into the hands of a mixed-blood?
"That joke isn't funny at all."
"Only a person with a brain full of water would make up such a rumor. Who would believe it? Only a person with a brain full of water would believe it, haha!"
…
Most people don't believe it.
As the saying goes, rumors stop at the wise.
They are wise men.
However, more and more news came out.
Some people heard that the royal court sent a large number of blood spirit crystals to Qingge Mansion.
Someone discovered that the seventeen major mineral veins under the Shi Wu lineage were recently transferred to the name of Mingyue Mansion.
Some people also saw...
In short, as things continued to ferment and gradually proved that this so-called "nonsense" was absolutely true, they were all dumbfounded.
A strong urge to curse arose, and at the same time, a sour emotion echoed.
Why does he do that?
Indeed, he will be better than me.
But is he really better than those purebloods?
Discussions arose again. In the less than one month , too many big things had happened, enriching their after-dinner conversations.
Moreover, this disturbance was by no means limited to one royal city; it quickly spread throughout the entire Burning Moon Region.
A huge storm blew up in the entire Burning Moon Region, causing a huge uproar.
The younger generations of all the kingdoms were in an uproar.
Such a person actually appeared in the Senluo King Realm?
A mixed-blood who is said to be the best among the current young generation in Burning Moon Territory?
The young creatures from various demon tribes were all clamoring, some were dissatisfied and some agreed.
Even many figures of the older generation can no longer remain calm.
Senluo capital.
Ever since the news about Qing Ge spread, the atmosphere in the entire city has become a little strange.
Originally in the capital, there was a situation of confrontation between Chi Pu and Diao Feng.
Everyone thinks that the new king of the realm will definitely be one of these two people.
Therefore, many demon cultivators have more or less lined up behind these two princes.
This was especially true after the Demon Lord Xuan Blade sent Qing Ge to Jianluo King City.
Soon, people forgot about Qingge's existence and only talked about it occasionally after dinner.
As a result, within a few days, someone received the news that Qing Ge had shown his prowess and made a name for himself after arriving in Jianluo King City.
This surprised many people, and they couldn't help but wonder how Qingge could have made a name for himself in the royal city with his previous performance?
However, they did not remain surprised for long, as more news arrived.
Qing Ge was attacked in the royal city and nearly died.
Sure enough , this is the consequence of a small shrimp daring to act rampant in Longtan.
Many people thought of it and applauded.
As for sympathy, it does not exist.
Qing Ge doesn't have many supporters in the Senluo King Realm, or even none.
Everyone is happy to see him in trouble and unwilling to see him rise.
Because if Qingge rises, those who have sided with Chi Pu and Diao Feng early on will suffer losses.
This is a situation that no one wants to see.
But the good times did not last long. Today, a piece of news came back that was heavy enough to blow through the entire Senluo capital, making everyone dizzy and their ears buzzing.
Qing Ge, he was recognized by the Demon Sword and became the first person to control the Demon Sword after the Holy Ancestor Mangcang.
How is this possible?
If this is true, wouldn't Qing Ge become the hot favorite to be the successor to the Realm Lord's position?
So what happened to their previous investment in Chi Pu and Diao Feng?
Lose all your money?
Soon, they got the news.
The Demon Lord of the Beast Blade is planning to go to Jianluo King City in person in a few days.
The meaning behind this is even more worthy of consideration.
The demon cultivators in Senluo Capital have different thoughts.
There are even rumors that the atmosphere in Chi Pu and Diao Feng's mansions has been as gloomy as ice in recent days. The two princes are in a very bad mood, easily angered, and their subordinates are trembling with fear.
Things change suddenly. Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west.
An experienced old man sighed.
…
"Your Highness Qingge, Your Highness Chili invites you to attend his banquet today. What do you mean?" Outside the door, Butler Zhipan asked cautiously.
"Refuse it. Just say that I'm studying combat tactics and have no time to spare." Lu Qingshan's indifferent voice came from the room.
The butler answered and left in a hurry.
Since that day, the splendor of Lu Qingshan’s mansion far surpassed that of the Ying Realm.
But the difference is that the Ying Realm welcomes everyone, but Lu Qingshan puts on a cold attitude and refuses everyone's visit on the grounds that he is comprehending combat tactics.
But even so, people from the major royal palaces still left a lot of gifts and were extremely polite.
In the room.
Qin Yitian counted the gift list and the message on the table, muttering, "Chi Zun sent thirty blood spirit crystals, saying that this is only the first batch, and there will be a second batch after it is used up. However, given the young master's current situation, there should be no chance for the second batch of blood spirit crystals to be delivered to your door."
Qin Yitian had the mentality of a housekeeper and felt it was a pity.
"Then, the more than one hundred royal palaces in the royal city basically sent a lot of gifts, most of which were minerals."
Taohua is very happy these days.
After a pause, Qin Yitian said in a strange tone: "Over at Mingyue Mansion, all the conditions agreed by Demon Lord Shi Wu have been met."
"Lu Qingshan, Ying Mingyue wanted to see you several times, but you declined every time. So why do you care about this?" Gu Yiyi couldn't help but ask sullenly.
Her little head couldn't comprehend the underlying truth.
Qin Yitian smiled and said softly, "Because you are a human, humans and demons cannot coexist, so you don't want to have too much relationship with the demons. This is your principle. But she once saved your life, and you must repay the favor. This is also your principle."
“Well, like this…” Gu Yiyi seemed to understand but not quite.
Lu Qingshan did not dwell on this matter. He thought about it seriously for a moment and said slowly, "I have almost received all the gifts I should receive. If I delay, something bad will happen. I can't be greedy anymore. It's time to end this."
He did not give Yingjie an immediate reply, but waited leisurely for another three days.
As for the purpose...
To put it nicely, it means waiting and watching.
To put it bluntly...in layman's terms, it means taking advantage of others.
He grasped the balance very well.
Since Ying Jie has a secret plan, nothing serious will happen even if he is left hanging for two or three days.
At least before the Demon Lord Shi Wu issues the punishment to the Ying Realm, the Ying Realm can continue to endure.
Lu Qingshan was sure of this.
That’s how human hearts are.
Thinking of this, he quickly wrote a message and asked his servant to deliver it to Demon Lord Honglie's mansion.
"We have to go back."
He sighed.
…
Demon Lord Honglie's Mansion.
"Things are different now. Qingge has become the most popular person in the royal city. Even if you are equally extraordinary, your grandfather must give Qingge an explanation since there is solid evidence that you ordered the assassins to kill Qingge. The punishment has been roughly decided. You will be confined to the Blood Prison Cliff for a hundred years." Demon Lord Honglie said to Ying Jie.
"About tomorrow, Demon Lord Shi Wu will announce this punishment to appease Qing Ge."
"Blood Hell Cliff..." Ying Jie muttered.
That's not a good place.
In the Blood Prison Cliff, the evil spirit is like a knife. Here, one has to endure the pain of being cut by the evil spirit all the time.
That is the place where the demon cultivators who cultivate the Blood Demon Body use to temper their bodies, which is of great benefit to the physical body.
But for other demon cultivators, torture is far more important than tempering the body.
"Alas," Demon Lord Honglie sighed, "No matter what, you are the pride of my Shiwu lineage, the future head of the family, and you have the appearance of a demon lord, which is just a little bit inferior to Qingge. So no matter what, your grandfather will try his best to protect you."
"This punishment is not particularly severe, so in other aspects, he is prepared to give Qing Ge more things as compensation."
"Take care of yourself. Think carefully in Blood Prison Cliff. Time can smooth out everything. After you get out, you must relax and stop thinking about fighting Qing Ge."
"He's already done."
"Besides, they said you will be locked up for a hundred years, so it is not impossible to release you early then." He added.
"I understand." Ying Jie's face was calm and he answered indifferently.
Demon Lord Honglie nodded and said nothing more.
After his father left, Ying Jie closed his eyes and thought quietly.
He is very patient.
Three days have passed since he sent a message to "Qingge", and so far, he has not received a reply.
But Yingjie is still waiting.
The fact that no response has been given for so long is just proof of how unusual it is.
Because if Qingge was really confident, he would have already taken advantage of the situation.
When the momentum was far stronger than his, he kept doing nothing, which was actually a sign of guilty conscience.
"I can still wait, but if you haven't given me an answer before I am sent to the Blood Hell Cliff, I can only report this matter." Ying Jie said to himself.
He was greedy and wanted the magic sword and even more.
But he has a bottom line and will never put himself in an embarrassing situation because of greed.
An eighth-grade demon lord who has just mastered the Mangcang combat method will be imprisoned in the Blood Prison Cliff in a few days?
What a ridiculous thing this is.
Thinking of this, Ying Jie couldn't help but laugh at himself.
"Qing Ge...you are really amazing."
Although his expression was calm, his mood was extremely bad, but he had been suppressing it.
At this time.
A servant's voice came from outside the door.
"Your Highness, there is news from Qingge Mansion."
Ying Jie was stunned.
"Are you finally here?" he suddenly laughed.
"Bring it in." Ying Jie said.
His men quickly brought in a piece of black jade.
After sending his men away, Ying Jie probed his mind into the black jade.
The message in the black jade was very brief, just one sentence.
"See you at Xuanyue Terrace at midnight."
…
The night is cool as water.
A wide and high platform, silent and empty.
It is hard to imagine that in the prosperous Jianluo King City, there would be such a desolate, uninhabited place like a ghost town.
This place is called Xuanyuetai.
However, that was its previous name.
It just got a new name recently.
"Desolate Land".
That’s right, Xuanyuetai is where Huang appeared, and that’s why it is so desolate.
This is a dead place, a den of ghosts. No one wants to get close to it. It has been abandoned.
Ying Jie stood on the edge of Xuan Yue Terrace.
This place has not yet entered the wilderness.
He frowned and glanced at the wasteland not far away, feeling subconsciously a little scared.
Although there will be no risk as long as you don't enter the wilderness and actively provoke it.
But Huang is so terrifying that it puts people under infinite pressure.
Ying Jie stood there for a moment.
"You're here." He suddenly smiled.
"I'm here." Lu Qingshan said.
Lu Qingshan appeared not far from him and was walking towards him slowly.
"Why do we have to meet here?" Ying Jie asked.
“Shouldn’t the next line be that you shouldn’t have come…” Lu Qingshan muttered softly.
"What?" Ying Jie didn't hear clearly.
"No," Lu Qingshan smiled and shook his head, looking extremely relaxed. He looked around and said, "You didn't bring any men with you?"
"Don't you have it either?" Ying Jie sneered.
The two people who had something to hide tacitly agreed not to bring their men with them, but came alone.
Lu Qingshan didn't care and went back to the previous question. He sighed and said, "I am now the most popular and most watched person in the royal city. If I go to other places, if I am seen by some people with ulterior motives, it will be bad if they find something by accident. After thinking about it, this is the only place in the royal city where no one will appear. It is absolutely safe."
Ying Jie nodded seriously and said sarcastically: "Indeed, with so many secrets, once exposed, there will be no good results. Everything you have now may be lost. It is understandable that you are so cautious."
He could accept Lu Qingshan's statement because it made sense.
"Oh." Lu Qingshan sighed.
"Have you thought about how to explain the matter of the sword talisman?" Seeing Lu Qingshan's reaction, Ying Jie became even more confident and aggressive.
"I can't explain it." Lu Qingshan shook his head.
Ying Jie’s eyes tightened.
Are you giving in so easily?
Indeed, it is difficult to explain.
However, Qingge doesn't look like someone who would give in easily.
Lu Qingshan paused and asked again: "Your Highness Yingjie should not have told anyone about this matter yet, right?"
"At the moment, I'm the only one who knows about this matter." Ying Jie didn't bother to hide it.
"Then I'll have to trouble you to help me keep this secret."
"Help you hide it? It's not impossible."
He was surprised at Lu Qingshan's directness, but he immediately responded: "However, it depends on whether the conditions you offer are worth it for me to help you hide it."
"Your Highness Ying Jie is of such status and position, what is there in Qingge that can make your heart move?" Lu Qingshan frowned, looking embarrassed.
A moment later, he clapped his hands, and an obsidian sword appeared in his hands.
Lu Qingshan said: "Devil Sword, you must be interested in the Devil Sword, right?"
Ying Jie narrowed his eyes.
"However, the magic sword has a spirit. Even if I want to give it to you as a condition for you to help me keep the secret, the magic sword may not agree." Lu Qingshan said again.
"How did you get the recognition of the Demon Sword? Tell me!" Ying Jie's voice became urgent.
He is a calm man, but the significance of the magic sword is too great.
Seeing that it was within reach, Ying Jie could no longer suppress his emotions.
"You must have used some special means to control the magic sword." Ying Jie had an almost paranoid obsession with this.
"You guessed it all," Lu Qingshan praised again, "You are really smart."
If being born with a sword type can be considered a means, then what Ying Jie said is not wrong.
"Do you want to know?" Lu Qingshan asked.
Ying Jie did not answer.
"I can tell you everything as long as you agree to some of my conditions." Lu Qingshan said as he started walking into the wilderness under Ying Jie's astonished gaze.
"However, the next words must be said here."
"Why do we have to talk about it inside?" Ying Jie felt that something was wrong, coupled with his subconscious fear of the Wilderness, so he stayed where he was and asked.
Lu Qingshan sighed and said, "One cannot fall into the same pit twice. You are the Demon Lord, and I am only a sixth-rank demon. Our strengths are far from equal. What I am going to say next is an absolute secret. If you secretly record the conversation between you and me like you did in Senluo Tower, I may not be able to detect it at all. Then, you agree to my conditions on the surface, and then use it as a handle to threaten me, just like before. Wouldn't I lose both the wife and the army?"
"If we want to avoid this situation, we definitely cannot rely on your assurance, and I don't trust you either," Lu Qingshan said with a smile, "So, after thinking about it, this method is the most appropriate."
Ying Jie's eyes flickered.
That's true.
In the wilderness, all energy is forbidden.
Once energy appears, Huang will sense it and then burst out with power to target the person who releases the energy.
With Huang’s strength, even the Demon Lord Shi Wu was instantly seriously injured and dying.
Therefore, he dared not use any means in the wilderness.
"This kid is quite smart." Ying Jie said secretly.
Lu Qingshan was really right.
Today, he actually carried a photo stone with him, intending to use it to record his conversation with Qingge so that he could use it as a handle to threaten and control him in the future.
He hesitated.
"Well, the magic sword is the most important thing. As for whether or not you can control Qing Ge, having it is a bonus, but not having it is nothing."
Ying Jie looked again at the magic sword held in Lu Qingshan's hand, which was flashing with a faint purple light.
His inner greed prompted him to make the final decision.
However, being cautious by nature, he still glanced carefully at the wasteland before entering it.
He was afraid of some conspiracy.
The wasteland is still in its infancy and is only about the size of two squares, so every corner can be clearly seen at a glance.
Including the center of the wasteland, the mass of flesh that was constantly wriggling and closing, with a black hole-like hole in it, all were clearly within his sight.
Apart from Qing Ge, there was no one else in the wilderness.
In the wilderness where all energy is forbidden, there is no way to hide from sight and lurk.
There were many weapons scattered randomly on the ground.
That should have been left behind by the demon cultivators who entered the wilderness and wanted to destroy it.
After confirming that there was no possibility of an ambush, Ying Jie gritted his teeth.
He is the Demon Lord, Qingge is a junior demon general, and there is no ambush, so there is no reason for him to be afraid.
In addition, the magic sword was right in front of him, and he felt a little confused.
Finally, he stopped recording on the image stone, and retracted the demonic energy in his body again and again until there was no trace left, and then followed Lu Qingshan's footsteps into the wilderness.
He walked until he reached Lu Qingshan and stopped.
"You can tell me now," he urged.
Although he knew that in the Wilderness, as long as he did not use energy, the Wilderness would treat him as nothing and he would be absolutely safe.
But when he thought that there was a terrifying creature right beside him that could devour him at any time, Ying Jie still felt scared.
Greed is the original sin.
Lu Qingshan narrowed his eyes.
From the beginning to the end, he was certain that Ying Jie would come in.
Everything is under control.
All the preparations are over.
Now we can get to the point.
"Can you really guarantee that you will not reveal my secret to others?" He asked again, as if he was worried.
"As long as you can satisfy me today, I swear to keep the secret." Ying Jie promised.
oath?
What is that? Is it edible?
Ying Jie had already planned to eat Qing Ge whole, skin and bones, in order to calm his resentment.
It was only now, in order to obtain the magic sword, that he suppressed his temper and pretended to be friendly with Qingge.
"No," Lu Qingshan thought for a moment, and finally said, "I still don't trust you."
"So what do you want?" Ying Jie was impatient and threatened: "You have to understand, I can still discuss this with you. But if I report this to the Demon Lord and the others, do you think they will be polite to you?"
"That's true." Lu Qingshan agreed.
Then he said, "However, I think there is only one kind of person who can keep secrets the best. So... I need you to agree to one condition before I can tell you all the secrets."
"What conditions?" Ying Jie asked subconsciously before he could react.
Lu Qingshan said calmly:
"Please give me your life."
——Only the dead will never reveal their secrets.
