"Old brother, although saying 'thank you' is a bit vulgar, I still have to say 'thank you' to you." Lee Xun was immensely moved.
"Hehe, don't say it like that. I also hope to fulfill my wish. Walk your own path in Sword Soul Continent, Divine Soul Continent is much more complicated than Sword Soul Continent. " Tuoba Gui's eyes were also starting to tear up. There was excitement, happiness, nostalgia, and blessings.
"I will. Oh right, has old brother seen Rongrong before? And there's also Xing. "
"I have. Xing is very cute. Because she is a Spiritual Beast Companion of Holy Maiden, her position in the Jiuyou Profound Sect is naturally very high. Now that Miss Rongrong has also joined the Jiuyou Profound Sect, she will also participate in the trials of the eighteen personal guards. Don't worry, with her talent, passing the trials won't be a problem. "
Receiving this news, Lee Xun finally calmed his heart. After bidding Tuoba Gui farewell, Lee Xun decided to roam about on his Sword Soul Continent for a while. Right now, it could be considered as having a falling out with Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce. The Helian Clan and Ximen Clan had already fallen out and it was no longer convenient to regain their Rotterdam. He needed even more powerful strength to intimidate the three forces.
Lee Xun did not ask Tuoba Gui about the location of the Jiuyou Profound Sect. Tuoba Gui did not say it out loud, as it was obvious that he did not want Lee Xun to know either.
The first place Lee Xun chose was La City. Although he was going there for a tour, he still had to pay attention to the current situation and see if his three enemies were taking any actions.
He sneaked into Hu Kou Casino and met Chendong.
"Big brother, you are so fierce! You can kill all four Heaven Rank Rankers s at the same time! If it was anyone else, I would definitely not believe it!" Chendong was extremely excited. Having beheaded four Heaven Rank Rankers s at the same time was an unprecedented feat in the history of Sword Soul Continent. Ever since the end of the ancient era, for the young generation to produce a genius before the age of thirty to kill a Earth Rank Expert was already their greatest achievement. Chendong could finally understand how much of a genius his sworn brother was.
"Hehe, let's not talk about that. Those four people are considered weaker than the rest in Heaven Rank Rankers, I have not fought against the real strong warriors yet. Look, don't you see that I have to obediently hide right now? " Lee Xun laughed bitterly, he was indeed satisfied, but to put it bluntly, he was escaping.
"Brother, this is different. In time, you will definitely become a powerful being at the pinnacle. "
"I'm here to stay for a few days. I hope you can help me find out more about the situation outside."
"Don't worry, after I heard your news, I ordered some people to pay attention to the movements of the three families. "This time, you don't have to worry about being discovered by those three families. There are many forces secretly inquiring about this, and everyone wants to see how the three families will deal with you."
Lee Xun's birth had long ago been the focus of attention by many when he defeated Yi Liu. The series of outstanding accomplishments that followed were astonishing, and now that he had even created such an unimaginable feat, it naturally attracted the attention of many.
"If they're only after me, then it doesn't matter. Right now, they won't find out anything. I'm just afraid that they will deal with unrelated people." What Lee Xun meant was, of course, worrying about Fengxiang Chamber of Commerce and the royal family of the Empire of Yuyue.
Chendong also understood Lee Xun's worry and said: "Big Brother, I will help you take note of your worry in the next few days."
"..."
With Chendong helping him gather information, Lee Xun decided to stay in the Hukou casino at ease. After Chendong left, Lee Xun entered the "Jade Light Realm".
As soon as he entered the "Jade Light Realm", he saw a group of chirpy girls guarding him.
Lirou was the first to jump into Lee Xun's embrace. At this time, no one wanted to fight with her, so all the girls covered their mouths and giggled.
"Lee Xun, why have you waited so long?" Lirou asked gently.
Lee Xun recounted what had happened, and when he heard that Lee Xun had killed four Heaven Rank Intermediate Rankers, he was extremely shocked.
"Lee Xun, do you think those three families will take care of our families?" Shangguan Jing'er asked worriedly.
"According to common sense, it would not happen for the time being. After all, I am the one who started this. But since Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce sent Heaven Rank Rankers to deal with me this time, it's not according to common sense, so I didn't dare to make any casual judgement right now, so I first came to Chendong's place and asked him to help me get some information. " Lee Xun was indeed very surprised that Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce had sent Gao Ping and Feng Biao to deal with him, but he was also very impressed with Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce's shrewdness. After sitting in the seat of honor at Sword Soul Continent's First Chamber of Commerce for thousands of years, this reputation was indeed not for show.
"Lee Xun, then will something happen to my Queen Mother? It was only when Big Sister Rou came that I realized the seriousness of the situation. " Princess Xixi's words stunned everyone. Under their puzzled gazes, she took out a stone key with an ancient rune engraved on it, and continued, "When I said my goodbyes to the Queen Mother, she gave me this, saying it was passed down from her ancestors, at that time she sacrificed a large number of her elite children to obtain this key. If anyone outside finds out that this thing is in the hands of our Helan Empire Imperial Family, it might bring about a disaster, so they let me bring it out. In addition, according to what the Queen Mother said, if any special circumstances occur, I'll let you decide what to do with it. "
Lee Xun finally understood why the Qianye Clan would target the He Lan Imperial Family. Most likely, it was to obtain this key, but in order to avoid attracting other people's attention, he decided to do it in secret.
"Xixi, keep this key first. Counting this key, there should be eight of them. As long as that final key doesn't appear, your Queen Mother shouldn't be in any danger. If we hear the news of the last key, we'll immediately return to your Queen Mother's side.
"Mm, I'll listen to you." Princess Xixi said obediently. Ever since she took Lee Xun as her brother, her attitude towards him had changed by a hundred and eighty percent.
"By the way, where are the other two girls?" Lee Xun asked.
Lei Jingjing laughed, "Are you talking about Ling'er and Long'er? They are currently accompanying Lin Lei and Lei La, and they both said that they will follow you in the future as well, as their masters. What do you plan to do?"
All the girls could not help but look at Lee Xun in amusement. Seeing this, Lee Xun hurriedly said, "Don't think that your plans were wrong, I did not know that they were all girls when I saved them. Now, we really have to make them follow us. There are some things that I want to ask them. "
Only after Lee Xun brought the girls and Ling'er to chat did Lee Xun finally understand what was going on. It turned out that for the sake of future generations, the Dragon and Wolf Clans would allow their children to live independently when they reached a certain point in their growth. As for Ling'er and Long'er, because they were twins, they weren't willing to be separated. After leaving their parents, they stayed together, but five years ago, a group of human warriors suddenly appeared, forcing them to swallow a drug, before fainting away. When they woke up, they discovered that they had been forced to make a contract with each other. Thus, Ling'er and Long'er agreed to accept the current situation. Furthermore, Helian Hao and Xi Men Feng also promised to release Ling'er and Long'er the moment they reached Heaven Rank, and would not ask for any more of them. Although he had accepted the status quo, a sense of disgust still existed in his heart.
"Master, can you let Ling'er and Long'er follow you?" We feel safe with you. " Ling'er said. Long'er naturally looked at Lee Xun with hope, her beautiful eyes filled with anticipation.
Lee Xun smiled and nodded. "You can call me Big Brother from now on, but don't call me Master. Otherwise, I won't be able to explain myself when I see this old man in the future."
"Brother Xun, who is this old man?" Long'er asked happily.
"Hehe, he is my master. A senior of your Dragon Wolf clan signed a contract with my master, so my master told me that I must repay his kindness when I meet with the Dragon Wolf clan."
Hearing Long'er intimately call Lee Xun "Big Brother Search", all the girls couldn't help laughing out loud, only Ling'er disapproved. Although Lee Xun felt that they were a little intimate, he was still very happy in his heart. This pair of beautiful sisters were indeed very cute and cute.
After checking on Lin Lei and Leyla's recent progress, Lee Xun looked at Han Meiji once more before exiting the "Jade Light Realm".
Half a day later, Chendong hurriedly rushed over to meet Lee Xun.
"Big Brother, I just received news that the eight empires in the south, including the Southern Champion Empire, have just declared a truce. However, nearly a hundred empires in the north have simultaneously launched military operations. Looking at the situation now, our Sword Soul Continent is going to fall into chaos. " Chendong's words contained a faint sense of excitement.
"Second brother, tell me, have you been looking forward to this day?" Naturally, Lee Xun could clearly feel Chendong's emotions.
"Well, to tell you the truth, big brother, we five casinos have amassed a lot of wealth over the years. Three hundred years ago, a huge information network was set up to gather intelligence on the various countries in the north. According to the laws of history, the Sword Soul Continent would cause chaos every thousand years or so, and most of it would start from the north, then slowly spread to other areas. "Just now, the heads of the five casinos all decided to carry out the plan that was set down three hundred years ago. Each of them will go to the north to build an empire during the chaos."
Lee Xun smiled and nodded. He wasn't surprised at all by the decision of the five big casinos. "Second brother, when are you going to the north?"
"I will leave tomorrow. Furthermore, we have received clear information that the Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce, Helian Clan and Ximen Clan will not take any big actions for the time being. Currently, every merchant guild and family clan with some power were all busy going to the north to gather money. They also needed to formulate a plan to ensure that they wouldn't be washed clean during this thousand year reshuffle. The inner Baoyuan Chamber of Commerce has already been declared to be the most urgent period, and during the last thousand years of chaos, they were almost destroyed. The forces that coveted their wealth are not few, and normally, everyone would give them face, but during this period, their face is worthless. "
"Second brother, your big brother won't be able to help you for the time being. However, if I make a breakthrough, I will definitely come and find you." Lee Xun naturally couldn't publicly appear in front of Chendong at this time, as that would only bring him trouble.
"I understand. Big brother, you don't have to mind." After I leave, big brother, do you have any plans? "
"I want to walk around on the Sword Soul Continent. I might go to the Wavast Ancient Kingdom first." Lee Xun couldn't think of a good place to go either. Since Wavast Ancient Kingdom had invited him, he naturally had to go there. Regarding Wavast Ancient Kingdom, Lee Xun was filled with curiosity.
"Big brother, then I'll be bidding you farewell now." Chendong had a lot of things to prepare.
"Good, I wish you success." Lee Xun and Chendong hugged each other tightly.
After Chendong left, Lee Xun also left the Hu Kou casino. With regards to the history of Sword Soul Continent, Lee Xun would definitely take a fancy to it if he had nothing else to do. Although the imperial power was strong, it didn't care about the Heaven Rank Rankers at all. This also meant that the imperial power of each empire was not the most dominant power. The moment a Heaven Rank Rankers appeared from any clan within the empire, it would be equivalent to breaking away from the empire's control and being placed in the same position as the empire's royal family. And once a certain amount of time had passed and the number of such families reached a certain number, their strength would accumulate to a certain degree. Naturally, there would be people who would choose to challenge the imperial power. The surrounding empires would seize the opportunity to gain benefits and form a chain reaction.
Towards such a chaotic source of energy, Lee Xun felt that the Heaven Rank Rankers was like an atomic bomb, only there were too many forces with nuclear weapons. There might not be much difference between the Heaven Rank Rankers and the battle between the Heaven Rank Rankers, but if the Heaven Rank Rankers were to go and fight against the ordinary army, it would not be difficult for him to kill a million soldiers by himself. Although the Sword Soul Continent had a few potential rules restricting the Heaven Rank Rankers, if it really came to a chaotic period, all of the rules were like the floating clouds, for other people, they would have no choice but to destroy their own country or their own clan.
Lee Xun still believed in Chendong's ability. Just by looking at how Chendong was able to tell that he was different from the others, this kind of ability to recognize people was an extraordinary advantage, and with the financial support of the Hukou casino, Chendong's chances of success were too high. It was very possible that he would become the target of public attention in the local area. He sighed in his heart. He hoped that his brother would not meet with any mishaps and help him when he had the strength to fight against a peak-level powerhouse. Not only that, the people beside him could also be considered to be hiding somewhere with him now. Lee Xun didn't even dare to let them out right now. Although Lee Xun believed that the three great forces would not casually send people over, if they really wanted to take action against him, then they would be well-prepared. From now on, he could not be careless at all, and he would definitely not allow the tragedy of Qin Qing and Shang Rongrong to happen again.
With a lot of emotions, Lee Xun sighed in his heart: "Strength still needs to be strong."
Because his own strength was not enough, Shang Rongrong almost lost her life and was forced to leave her side. Now, also because his own strength was not enough to bring everyone to live a life of escape, Lee Xun once again made a crazy decision.
