Within the inn, w.a.n.g Yuyan kneeled down on the ground as her clear eyes stared straight at Xiang Yun. She kowtowed three times in both curiosity and joy, and after kowtowing three times, Lady Meng hurriedly brought over tea for her daughter. w.a.n.g Yuyan accepted it and offered it up with both hands!
"Master, please have some tea!" w.a.n.g Yuyan respectfully said to Xiang Yun!
"Mm, from now on you are my second direct disciple. You also have a senior brother called Qiao Feng. Follow me back to the northwest and you'll meet him."
Xiang Yun took a sip of his tea and immediately looked at this obedient female disciple. His eyes revealed a benevolent and solemn expression, but his heart was asking this question with extreme emotion!
"System, what about my reward? Will it be the Rippling Light Steps or the Northern Nether Divine Art?" Since he had accepted w.a.n.g Yuyan as his disciple, Xiang Yun felt that this had to do with the two martial arts of the Free and Unrestrained Sect. His heart was filled with antic.i.p.ation!
Just as Xiang Yun spoke, a system notification rang out.
"Puff!" Xiang Yun almost spat out the tea in his mouth. When he heard that it was actually this martial art, Xiang Yun was shocked beyond belief.
Would Xiang Yun be disappointed? Of course not. On the contrary, he was extremely excited. The Thirteenth Level Dragon Elephant Wave Technique was a famous martial art among Jin Yong.
The representative of this martial art was none other than the Golden Wheel Mage King, one of the divine condors. He cultivated the Thirteenth Level Dragon Elephant, the supreme technique of the Secret Sect.
The second level was twice as deep as the first. It would take three to four years. The third floor was twice as deep as the second floor. It would take seven or eight years.
The more times they increased, the harder it was for them to progress. After reaching the fifth level, if one wished to train to the next level, one would often need to spend more than thirty years of hard work.
At that time, the Guardian King had been able to fight evenly with the Western Poison of the East and Evil, fighting Yang Zhao and Little Dragon Girl alone. If one were to cultivate to the thirteenth level, no one would know how powerful it would be.
He didn't expect that he would be able to obtain this martial art after taking in a disciple. He was extremely lucky. He just didn't know what level he would be able to reach.
He only had the Art of Doing good deeds and the Art of Creation, but the rules of the system did not allow him to impart it.
After some thought, Xiang Yun could only smile wryly and tell the mother and daughter that it wouldn't be too late for him to pa.s.s on his skills to w.a.n.g Yuyan after following him back to the northwest for a month or so.
Xiang Yun decided to make a trip back to Qin Feng City after the experience in Tiger City was complete. Now that he had stepped into the Yellow Cloud Realm, he wanted to return to the Sect Master's cultivation room and borrow the cultivation room's effects to increase his cultivation.
Now there was another reason for him to return. Meng Qinglan and w.a.n.g Yuyan had no one to rely on, so he had to find a place for them to stay. Living in his own sect was undoubtedly the best choice.
The two of them were currently preoccupied with Xiang Yun's opinions. Naturally, they would have no objections, and temporarily stayed in the inn.
It was already late at night, and it was inconvenient for Xiang Yun to stay any longer. The mother and daughter pair then sent Xiang Yun out of the room.
Xiang Yun waved at the two of them before leaving the inn under the meaningful gaze of the innkeeper.
Xiang Yun had been sprinting all the way back to Diya. He had originally wanted to cultivate the Dragon Elephant's Great Wisdom Art immediately, but as soon as he had reached the Diwan Ya gate, he had discovered that something was amiss.
Xiang Yun's feet moved, his figure turning into a cool breeze as he entered. Just as he entered the Hall, Xiang Yun saw that the inside of the Hall was already a mess.
On the ground lay the brothers of the patrolling guards. Their faces were all purple and their clothes were torn, some of their limbs were deformed, they were clearly broken, some of them could not stop bleeding and moaning in pain, while others had already fainted, their fates unknown.
Xiang Yun stepped into the courtyard. Seeing this scene, he was instantly filled with both shock and anger.
Xiang Yun's shout woke up all of the patrolling city guards. It was as if they had seen their savior!
"Captain Wei, you're finally back! Something terrible has happened!"
Hearing this, Xiang Yun's heart seemed to have realised something, his gaze swept across the crowd, before finally landing on Dai Ziqiang, who was bleeding profusely from his forehead, as two of his front teeth fell off.
"Dai Zi Qiang, what happened? Where are Dong Lin and the rest?"
"Captain Wu Wu … Wu … Wu … Wu …" Dai Zi Qiang covered his mouth and actually cried.
"Speak!" Xiang Yun's expression was solemn as he urged.
Dai Ziqiang said with a sob, "Captain Wei was escorting these barbarians back to the city. He wanted to lock them up in the prison. I didn't expect that the patrolling barbarian guards would suddenly rush in and rescue them."
"The brothers tried their best to stop them, but they were all injured by these barbarians. Brother Dong Lin and the others were taken away by these barbarians. They said that they would be punished and dragged back to kill the barbarians!"
He had not expected that so many things would have already happened in just a few hours of separation from the rest of the group. The death row prisoners that were supposed to be locked up had been rescued, but his brothers had been captured to be executed for their crimes.
Dai Ziqiang suddenly thought of something and quickly said: "Oh right, Captain Wei, those barbarians said before they left that they not only wanted to punish us for our crimes, but also wanted you to personally take responsibility for it. Otherwise, they said that within three days they would flatten the entire Tiger City's Patrol Office."
All the wounded people on the ground were looking at Xiang Yun with fear and trepidation. They had been beaten up by the barbarians in one go. Everyone was already seriously injured, and they were still worried about the revenge that the barbarians were going to take.
Xiang Yun's chest violently rose up and down as he took in a deep breath, sweeping his gaze across everyone present. In the end, his gaze was finally wrapped by that thick and undispersed cold light!
"Captain, where are you going?" Everyone asked nervously.
"I'll go and bring them back!"
Xiang Yun only said one sentence before the figure carrying the greatsword on its back disappeared into the night!
Looking at Xiang Yun
"Captain, are you going to the Patrol of the Barbarians to save our brothers?"
"Captain, can we rescue them? This is the territory of the patrolling barbarian guards!"
"This …" Everyone immediately fell silent.
For a moment, a few more traces of worry appeared in their originally frightened eyes.
Although the functions of the Goliath Patrol Office and the Inspector General of the Windcloud Nation were the same, in terms of strength, the Goliath people were more powerful. In addition, the barbarians were born with more bloodthirsty blood.
The captain of the barbarian guards, Qi Yushan, was sitting on a big chair with tiger skin covering his body. There were dozens of armored barbarian guards holding sabers on both sides of the chair.
With your little bit of courage and skill, you actually dare to come patrol and guard Tiger City? "He dares to capture members of our barbarian race?! He's a bunch of ants who don't know the meaning of death!"
Dong Lin and the others were all heavily injured. As they looked at the mocking expression on Qi Yushan's face, they felt not only anger, but also a sense of powerlessness.
At this moment, there was also a proud Hu Rui standing on both sides of the living room. He looked at the people kneeling on the ground, sneered with disdain, and respectfully clasped his hands at Qi Yushan.
"Thank you for saving my life, Captain Qi!"
Hu Rui also smiled and nodded. However, a regretful expression was immediately revealed on his face as he said.
"Unfortunately, that Wei fellow is not here. He is the leader of this group of city guards. He is here to fight against us barbarians. If we can capture him and chop him into pieces, then we will be able to dispel the hatred in my heart."
Qi Yushan laughed disapprovingly and said, "Brother Hu is referring to the new captain of the city guards. You don't have to worry, I've already left a few useless patrolling guards to send a message to him, asking him to take the blame in my Patrol Office within three days. Brother Hu can do whatever you want with him then."
"Oh!" Hu Rui's face lit up, but then he immediately said worriedly, "Captain Qi is not weak, he's at the early Yellow Cloud Realm. Would he honestly come and beg for forgiveness?"
"Hmph!" Qi Yushan sneered in disdain. "How could a mere early Yellow Cloud Realm martial artist be afraid of that? Didn't I personally cripple the previous captain of the city guards, who was at the middle stage of the Yellow Cloud Realm?"
It was only then that Hu Rui remembered that this Captain Qi before him was an existence at the peak of the Yellow Cloud Realm. In addition to his even purer berserk blood, he would be able to contend with a Mystic Cloud Realm human martial pract.i.tioner once he erupted.
"In that case, thank you captain!"
Qi Yushan nodded and ordered, "Men, take all of this trash from Windy Nation and behead them tomorrow at noon."
