Chapter 487 Could it be Xia Qingxuan?
Haiyuan City, the largest and most prosperous city in the eastern part of the Sui Empire, is a military city. It is responsible for the supreme mission of defending against sea invasions and protecting land monks.
Three thousand years ago, a land-sea war between the monks and the sea tribes, which lasted for a hundred years, ended with the retreat of the sea tribes, and the monks of the mainland won the tragic victory.
In that earth-shaking battle, many epic powerhouses emerged, turning the tide and becoming the saviors of the entire continent.
The most famous figure among them is Li Qinglian, who is known as the Land Sword Immortal.
Before the war began, he was just an ordinary little shrimp in Qi training realm.
However, in the late period of the Hundred Years' War, he rose up like a comet. Not only did he become the strongest man on the mainland, he also rushed into the Sea Palace with his sword alone, forcing the Sea Emperor to make a covenant and never invade the land during his lifetime.
The war ended, and Li Qinglian retired successfully.
Three months later, a sword shattered the void and ascended in the sun.
Although the Sea Emperor made an oath, the mainland monks were still vigilant and thus established Haiyuan City.
Haiyuan City has a population of more than 30 million and a radius of hundreds of miles. It is the second largest city in the Sui Empire after Yang Wucheng.
Lu Li and Hao Lin have lived in Haiyuan City for more than a month.
In fact, since conquering the two and returning to Yangwu City, Lu Li has brought them to Haiyuan City.
According to Qu Han, Chinese monks, including the Xuanjian Sect, should be active in an island in the sea. Haiyuan City is a coastal city and has the best sea outlet, which is obviously the most suitable for inquiries.
In the past month, Lu Li rarely left Yixianju. He either practiced the Nine-Turn Red Monster or comprehended the sword intent. His cultivation was very fast, and he was about to break through the middle stage of Lingji Realm, but his sword intent was nowhere to be improved. Even if he used the Green Blood Sword Heart, he would do this.
Obviously, the Green Blood Sword Heart can only help the sword cultivator realize the sword intent, but cannot enhance the sword intent.
As for the realm, the Lingji Realm belongs to the stage of tempering the mind and nature. As long as the mind is tough and the inner demon is regarded as nothing, it will naturally make rapid progress.
At first, Lu Li was able to practice step by step. Later, he was really impatient.
It’s not that the mind and nature are not enough. It’s that the inner demon has little influence on him, and it is useless except for wasting time.
So he simply used the sword intent. The inner demon appeared and immediately cut it off, which made his cultivation a thousand miles a day.
Lu Li practiced with peace of mind, but Brother Hao Lin was so busy that he was not touching the ground.
One collects coastal maps, especially the distribution map of deep-sea islands, and the other is responsible for inquiring about monks from China. Even if they are not from China, as long as monks appear in the sea, they must inquire clearly.
Despite their busy schedules, the two of them had no complaints. On the contrary, they were a little happy.
In the past, they robbed other monks, which seemed to be glorious, but in fact they were worried, for fear of encountering ruthless things, so they would trap themselves in.
Nowadays, it is not the case. Once you arrive in Haiyuan City, you will get two thousand medium-grade spirit stones. According to Lu Li, it is the activity funding. In addition, Lu Li also promised them that as long as you do your best, you will give them several sets of low-grade magic tricks in the future.
Although they are already at the Lingji Realm, they only have two sets of low-grade magic tricks, one set of martial arts to improve their realm, and the other set of attack magic tricks is exactly the move that Hao Lin used.
I heard that Young Master Lu was willing to give up his skills, how could they dare not do their best?
As natives of Xuantian Continent and have been in the world for a hundred years, their efficiency is far beyond Lu Li.
Lu Li sent them out during the day and listened to the report at night, and lived a very comfortable life.
"Young Master, Young Master."
Hearing the scream, Lu Li opened his eyes and shouted to the door: "Come in."
"yes."
Hao Mu pushed the door open and brought it to the door.
He quickly walked to Lu Li and bowed and said, "Young Master, I found something."
"Oh?" Lu Li smiled and said, "What's the matter? Tell me!"
Hao Mu organized some language and recalled, "This morning, I went around outside the city and met several fishermen. According to them, half a year ago, they were fishing in the sea and met a middle-aged monk flying by. One month later, the monk returned again, and there were two young men, a man and a woman, who were walking with him."
"really?"
Lu Li was stunned for a moment, then was overjoyed. He suddenly jumped out of the bed, walked around the room for a few times, and murmured as he walked: "From the sea, there is a man and a woman? Could it be Qu Han and Xia Qingxuan? And the middle-aged monk was Xia Qingxuan's father?"
"I heard from them that the middle-aged monk had a very high level and crossed the ocean like on flat ground. You also know that although the sea clan and the land monks are not as tense as before and have business dealings, once a monk enters the territory of the sea clan, they will never be polite, with only ordinary human races. And the monk came and went, but no sea clan dared to stop him." Hao Mu said again.
"oh?"
When Lu Li heard this, he thought for a while, and his heart became more and more confident.
When he didn't come to Xuantian Continent, he didn't know what the sword intent represents, but he knew it very well at this time.
Since Qu Han has comprehended the sword intent, even if he is an absolute genius in the third-grade sect, he can imagine his cultivation.
After coming back to his senses, he looked at Hao Mu with appreciation and said with a smile: "Hao Mu, you are doing well. I see that you are not fast, so I will give you a low-grade footwork. You can come and get it tomorrow morning."
"ah?"
Hearing this, Hao Mu suddenly widened his eyes and shivered with excitement.
Compared with the lower-grade attack technique, the lower-grade footwork is undoubtedly more precious.
If the footwork is exquisite, such as the Fengying Step used by Lu Li, it can increase combat effectiveness against monks of the same realm, and can escape even if they cannot win. Its life is like an extra layer of guarantee.
"Thank you, Master."
After being excited, Hao Mu suddenly knelt on one knee and said with gratitude: "The villain is willing to go through fire and water for the young master."
"It's not necessary to go through fire and water. If you do things well, you will naturally benefit from it."
Lu Li has lived in modern society for more than 20 years and is not interested in the slave master's style. In his heart, he is the boss, and these two are his employees.
If a boss wants to make money, he must not treat his employees first, otherwise everyone will be unfaithful and in the end he will be the one who will be unlucky.
After hearing Lu Li's words, Hao Mu was moved again. Although he was not smart, he was not an idiot. He knew better than anyone who was good to him or who was bad to him. Otherwise, Hao Lin would either beat or scold him every day, and even if he didn't turn against him, he would run away secretly. How could he be willing to die for Hao Lin?
"Young master, there is another news, but I'm not sure whether it's true or not, so" Seeing that Lu Li was in a good mood and accepted the gift again, Hao Mu gritted his teeth and spoke again.
"besides?"
Lu Li was stunned and looked at Hao Mu strangely, thinking that he was really not good at being handsome! Hao Mu looked stupid, but he didn't expect that his work efficiency was so high. Could it be that a fool would be lucky?
"When I was having dinner yesterday, I heard several monks discussing, saying that the city lord's mansion had captured two sea spies." Perhaps because he was uncertain about the authenticity of the news, Hao Mu felt guilty.
"Spy? What does it have to do with us?" Lu Li was speechless.
"Young Master, when those two spies were arrested, they once shouted wronged, saying that they were not spies, but," Hao Mu made up his mind: "It's from Huaxia Island on the sea." (To be continued)
