Cultivate, Sign In, And Be Rewarded Handsomely

Chapter 267: Pursuit

??

When Li Yuanqing arrived at the mountain, he hesitated for a moment. He seemed to have looked around and left after not discovering anything.

The pig head had been hiding in the mountainside and observing carefully. After a long time, he did not sense any dangerous aura. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief carefully, but he was still unwilling to leave.

This place was very safe. As long as he hid here carefully, nothing would happen. There was too much trouble going out now, and this mission had failed. He did not know how the higher-ups would punish him in the end.

However, there was nothing he could do. Those three big brothers had already died at the hands of others. He was the weakest, so it was useless to the overall situation. Even if he did nothing, his lord would probably not blame him.

As the pig head was thinking, he suddenly felt that it was a little crowded beside him. He had just dug such a small nest, but he kept feeling that there was something behind his butt. He turned around with great difficulty. It was really not easy to turn this huge body that was more than ten meters tall.

He turned around and saw a pile of broken rocks behind him. These broken rocks had piled up into a small mountain. Standing on the small mountain was Li Yuanqing, who he had thought had left just now. He really thought that this guy had left, but he did not.

The pig head turned pale with fright and turned around to escape through the original hole. However, just as he tried his best to knock his head against it, the wall seemed to have an iron wall and knocked him back.

The pig head had hit too hard, and he was dizzy. He felt like countless stars were spinning in his head. Just as the pig head was trying to get his bearings, he saw Li Yuanqing standing in front of him. However, Li Yuanqing looked similar to him now and was not as small as before.

The pig head looked down strangely and realized that his body had returned to his original appearance. He had returned to his human appearance and physique. There was a circle of black energy on Li Yuanqing’s palm. Waves of yin energy lingered around this energy.

“Who gave you this?”

...

The pig head touched his body. He found it difficult to accept that he had suddenly become so weak.

“I know I was wrong. I didn’t recognize you. I didn’t recognize you just now. Please forgive me. We’re all from the same race. There’s no need to kill each other, right?”

The pig head knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing to Li Yuanqing. He no longer looked as mighty as before.

Li Yuanqing flipped his palm and the black power disappeared from his palm. Instead, it was sent into his domain and poured into the roots of the blood vine. He poured this energy to the plant of the Blood Vine. In a different manner, the Blood Vine actually sucked these things clean.

After absorbing such powerful demonic power, the Blood Vine’s plant had clearly grown a little. The towering tree that it had climbed on was now dispirited. After obtaining such a huge amount of power, this tree seemed to be insufficient.

Li Yuanqing was in a daze for a while before he immediately returned. The pig head was still kowtowing on the ground. He carefully raised his head and glanced at Li Yuanqing before seeing his appearance.

It was indeed different from the scene he saw as a monster just now. The person in front of him looked like an ordinary human junior. The little fellow, who looked like an ant just now, had actually grown taller.

“Sir, I was confused before. I was bewitched. None of this was my will. I never wanted to be with them.”

He saw how miserable his three brothers were just now, so he wanted to keep his life. Now that the power in his body had been sucked dry by Li Yuanqing, he no longer had the strength to resist. He would be thankful if he could keep his life.

Li Yuanqing looked down at him and asked, “How did you obtain such a huge amount of power?”

The pig head replied bitterly, “Sir, I don’t know either. It’s just that the Black Dragon sent an envoy and told us to eat a black immortal pill… Oh, no, it’s a demon pill! After we ate that thing, our appearances changed and our strength increased greatly. We didn’t think too much about it and didn’t ask further.”

“What kind of pill?”

“I don’t know either, but I’ve never seen it before. Moreover, our place is very barren. The market is not even one percent of Rong City. I can’t bear to see those things. If you ask me about this, I’m afraid I won’t be able to answer.”

The pig head carefully sized up Li Yuanqing’s expression. He did not know why Li Yuanqing said these words. He seemed to be interested in this pill. Just now, he thought that Li Yuanqing was going to question him deeply. However, from the looks of it, Li Yuanqing did not seem to have that intention.

Li Yuanqing gently raised a hand and looked at him. “Are you sure you don’t know anything?”

“Sir, why don’t you believe me? I really…”

Before he could finish his sentence, a few streams of blood flowed out of his nostrils and eyes like water pillars.

The rebel army leader, who had been in the limelight for a while, was now reduced to dust. He was dead and his soul had been shattered.

Li Yuanqing originally wanted to capture him alive and ask him where these huge medicinal effects came from because he realized that these powers were very useful to the Blood Vine. If he could get some back, he might be able to let the Blood Vine grow faster. That way, he would be able to obtain more useful information and know what the key he left behind was for.

However, just as he had thought, this fellow was just a pawn. It was useless to ask him where these pills came from and how to refine them.

After Li Yuanqing cleaned up the place, he returned. Ye Qiluo was still waiting quietly. When she saw Li Yuanqing return, her eyes lit up again.

“Young Master Li, did you catch that person?”

Li Yuanqing nodded gently. “They won’t pose any threat to Rong City anymore. Don’t worry.”

“Thank you, Young Master. If not for you, I’m afraid our Rong City would have been in trouble again. I don’t know what to…”

Ye Qiluo’s voice was a little choked up.

Li Yuanqing felt a little uncomfortable. He coughed lightly and replied, “City Lord Ye, you don’t have to be so polite. Since we’re all humans, we naturally have to help each other. If humans want to prosper in the Catacombs, we have to help each other. This is our duty.”

“Young Master Li, just call me Little Ye. You don’t have to be so polite.”

Ye Qiluo’s voice became weaker and weaker. Li Yuanqing tried to call out that name, but he couldn’t say it.

“City Lord Ye, this is still more convenient. I believe no one will be able to pose a threat to Rong City in the short term. I still have some other troubles to resolve.”

Ye Qiluo revealed a bitter expression. She raised her head and asked Li Yuanqing with a smile, “Young Master Li, where are you going? What trouble are you in? How can I help?”

Li Yuanqing wanted to send Ye Qiluo back to Rong City since he still had to rush back to Sea City to resolve the trouble.

Originally, he wanted to surround those devils in Sea City.

However, there was suddenly a response from some of the sprouts left behind by the Blood Vine in the past. He knew that Rong City was facing a huge crisis, so he rushed back immediately and was just in time. If he was any later, they would probably cause a huge disaster.

If they were really killed by those half-demon rebels and occupied the city, what would the impact on the humans who had just stabilized inside be? It was simply unimaginable.

It was also because of this that Li Yuanqing realized that the Blood Vine had grown a lot. In addition, after absorbing the power of the four demon kings, the growth speed of the Blood Vine had increased. However, although it had grown big enough, there were no signs of recovery.

When he saw the Blood Vine in the past, he was only at the Spirit Transformation Realm. However, he had already absorbed the demonic power of a few Formation Arrangement Realm experts, but he had no intention of transforming at all. Li Yuanqing really did not know what to do.

Li Yuanqing did not expect Ye Qiluo to forget about Rong City. He originally thought that Ye Qiluo would definitely want to go back now.

Ye Qiluo seemed to understand Li Yuanqing’s thoughts and hurriedly explained, “Young Master Li, I’ve already instructed my subordinates to activate the third layer of the defensive array. This array will only open a month later. During this period of time, with the strength of those rebels, they won’t be able to pose any threat to this layer of defense. They definitely won’t be in any trouble.”

“Then doesn’t City Lord Ye need to go back and preside over the overall situation now? You can organize everyone to counterattack and capture these half-demon and half-human fellows.”

Ye Qiluo replied, “Young Master, you don’t know. Once the third layer of the array formation is activated, no one inside or outside can enter or leave normally. Therefore, I can’t enter now. Moreover, I’m afraid that if I’m alone outside…”

This was really a headache. Li Yuanqing’s plan did not include running around with City Lord Ye. However, there were indeed dangers everywhere in the catacombs now. Ye Qiluo was not strong enough. It would not be good if something really happened outside.

Outside Sea City, a man and a woman landed.

“Oh no, oh no, that devil is back!”

Some of the devils in Sea City had been resolved and hurriedly curled up again. All of them hid in the City Lord Manor. The powerful shield was still there.

“Young Master Li, so this is Sea City. So it’s really as the rumors say. All of them have been occupied by devils. Not a single human or demon is left?”

Ye Qiluo’s heart choked at the thought of the entire city of humans and demons being slaughtered.

Li Yuanqing looked at the scene outside the city and felt a little strange. These guys had actually left this place before. Their shield had just been condensed, which meant that they had run out earlier. However, they should have realized that it was difficult to escape from here after the stone tablet was closed, so they ran back helplessly and could only wait for death.

He thought that the phantom he had left behind would be useful, but it seemed like these people were very well-informed.

“These devils can’t escape anymore. After killing them all, someone needs to come and manage Sea City. I wonder if City Lord Ye has a suitable candidate?”

“What did you say, Young Master Li? How can that be? Since you’re the one who destroyed the devils in Sea City, Sea City naturally belongs to you. If you need help, I can send some people.”

Li Yuanqing did not care much about these things. He ignored the surging devilish aura below and discussed his future plans.

“The humans are not strong enough now. Although the demons in the catacombs have suffered a huge blow, they have a rich foundation. I wonder what else will appear. The defense of one city is not enough. We have to establish a close relationship between the three cities. I think City Lord Ye is more suitable to be the Alliance Master of this alliance.”

“No way!” Ye Qiluo hurriedly refused. “If we really want to establish an alliance, Young Master Li should be the Alliance Master of these three cities no matter what. It’s impossible for me to be the Alliance Master. Moreover, I have the intention to retire from the position of the City Lord of Rong City. There’s no need to mention the Alliance Master.”

Li Yuanqing looked at Ye Qiluo strangely. He did not expect her to have the intention to retire.

“City Lord Ye is the Saintess of the human race. If you retreat, who will lead the human race?”

Ye Qiluo lowered her head and whispered, “Although I’m the Saintess, I’m still a woman. I think the Great General and the others are more confident that they can lead Rong City and the human race to a wider world. I might not have the ability.”

Li Yuanqing did not expect this. He originally wanted to save trouble and settle this matter directly, but Ye Qiluo happened to want to retire, so it would be troublesome again.

“I hope City Lord Ye can consider this matter more. I feel that the human race still needs you very much. If you retreat at this time, I’m afraid it might not be a good thing.”

At this moment, the devils hiding under the shield were trembling. In the hearts of the devils, Li Yuanqing was the devil.

Ye Qiluo bit her lip and looked at the devils below. “Young Master Li, what do you plan to do with them?”

“I have a good idea.”
