Sitting next to Qiu Ruoshuang, Su Chen continued to talk about his guesses.“The second possibility is that I think these celestial demons have discovered many extremely precious things. Even something that helps them go one step further. And for this item, these celestial demons are willing to take risks. Even if the northern region of Jin is more disadvantageous to them, they will still rush into it. " These two situations are the most likely ones that Su Chen currently thinks. Qiu Ruoshuang nodded after hearing this. Qiu Ruoshuang actually has quite a bit of experience in dealing with these monsters. But compared to Su Chen, he is still far behind. Moreover, when dealing with monsters in the past, most monsters bullied the weak and feared the strong. As long as they sense the presence of a martial artist in the state of transformation, the celestial demons will generally avoid him.
Unless they believe they have the upper hand, they will never come out to fight with warriors of similar strength. "Su Chen, in your opinion, which reason is more likely?" Last time in the wilderness, Qiu Ruoshuang was seriously injured. It seemed that Su Chen was not even at the seventh level at that time, but under Su Chen's guidance, he still avoided the threat of the celestial demon. At that time in the wilderness, Su Chen's judgment was extremely accurate. The movements of the monsters are under control. Therefore, Qiu Ruoshuang still agreed with Su Chen's judgment. “If I have to choose between these two possibilities, I still think that there is something in the northern part of Jin State that the celestial demon is desperately seeking. That’s why they fight for it so desperately.” Su Chen frowned and explained his guess in detail. "The wisdom of celestial demons is no different from that of humans, and intelligence is a good thing. But the smarter you are, the less easily you can be manipulated by others, and the harder it is for you to succumb. Even if they surrender, they will most likely just pretend to obey and not do many good things. Above the Heavenly Demon is the legendary Demon King. I don't think it's strange to submit to the Demon King. It's normal. But it is not so easy to ask the Heavenly Demon to sacrifice his life to help the Demon King." Hearing Su Chen's words, Qiu Ruoshuang nodded seriously. Indeed. From a little demon to a celestial demon, from ignorance to enlightenment.
Are these celestial demons willing to give up the present day they have worked so hard to obtain? Only things that are beneficial to them can attract so many celestial demons. “So, if we want to resolve the crises in the north, we have to find out what those celestial demons are pursuing. It cannot be solved. It will not be solved in one, two, or even several years.” Qiu Ruoshuang said softly, she was more in favor of Su Chen's guess. After arriving at the northern wilderness of Jin State, we can explore in this direction and try to solve these troubles once and for all. Although these are just guesses, Su Chen's guesses are actually consistent with many situations. The evil plague in the north has actually been going on for a year or two. In the past one or two years, many powerful people from Jin State have taken action. The celestial demon has been killed several times. However, even though these celestial demons had suffered so many casualties and the terrain was very unfavorable, they were still rushing towards this side. If there weren't some precious things here, how could the demon be so ferocious. In the past on the Mingying battlefield, if the casualties of the celestial demons were a little higher, these beasts would become afraid and start to hide. The crisis in the north has been going on for almost two years. It has been confirmed that they will set off in ten days. Qiu Ruoshuang will have to spend more time during this period to consolidate her own strength. Su Chen's previous guidance helped Qiu Ruoshuang find the right path. This kind of practice to consolidate strength requires meditation. Usually a practice session, if short, lasts three days. But Qiu Ruoshuang will come out of seclusion once on the last day of her meditation practice. Qingyuan looked at his sister Shuang and didn't know what he should say. It is obvious that he couldn't concentrate even in seclusion because he saw Su Chen was there. Although in his heart he still believed that Su Chen was not worthy of Qiu Ruoshuang. But after seeing Su Chen take out the jade elixir, Qing Yuan also felt that Su Chen had some abilities. After nine days, the two set out together and headed north. Before leaving, Qing Yuan looked at Qiu Ruoshuang with a dim gaze. Qiu Ruoshuang seemed to understand her sister's complaints and pulled her aside to coax her for a while. The smile on his face reappeared. Su Chen and Qiu Ruoshuang set off together. As if they didn't want to be in a hurry, Qiu Ruoshuang also bought a carriage. Without Qingyuan by my side, it seemed even more awkward at first. Even more reserved than when I was in Tonglu City.
But after getting a little familiar with each other, the two became much more relaxed than before. The horse moved forward on the official road by itself, while Su Chen and Qiu Ruoshuang talked more and more, and their conversation became more and more in-depth. "At your age, you have already reached the fifth level of the Snow Realm. Even among the younger generation in Zhu Ming Palace, you are considered outstanding, right? You said before that some women looked down on you and were disgusted with you. Now, I’m afraid they are scrambling to get closer to you.” Qiu Ruoshuang said this with a smile. It looked like she was just taking it as a joke. But in fact, he was always staring at Su Chen out of the corner of his eye, trying to see something from Su Chen's expression. “No one is approaching me” Su Chen waved his hand and answered calmly. But Qiu Ruoshuang was obviously dissatisfied with this understated answer. "is it? Generally speaking, top young warriors are very popular among women. Plus, you have a pretty good-looking appearance, so would there be no women trying to get close to you?" After Qiu Ruoshuang said this, she added. “My eldest sister’s child, I heard that he is very popular in the sect. Many young women approached him on their own initiative. You are no worse than him, right? " As she spoke, Qiu Ruoshuang still had a smile on her face. It seems like he is really teasing or joking. Seeing this, Su Chen hesitated for a moment: "I didn't get close to them." As soon as the words came out, Su Chen felt that he had said something wrong. "So, there are indeed many women who want to get close to you?" There was still a smile on Qiu Ruoshuang's face, but the nature of this smile seemed to have changed. More like a fake smile. Actually, there are quite a few women like this. After arriving at Zhuming Palace, Su Chen received many advances from women in the palace. There is no need to demonstrate any talent or strength. Just based on the attention of the top leaders of Zhuming Palace, Su Chen has become very popular. You can think of it with your toes.
But when Qiu Ruoshuang heard this, she still felt a little uncomfortable. "Which woman is the prettiest among them?" Qiu Ruoshuang calmed herself down and continued asking questions. "Neither of them looks good. Anyway, they are not the appearance of the person I imagined in my mind." Su Chen had already started to make amends in his words. These words of compensation may not be useful. "is it? I feel that many women look pretty and cute, with a temperament as graceful as orchid. Even when I saw them, I thought they were as beautiful as fairies. You don't like all of these?" Su Chen could already sense a hint of jealousy in his words. Su Chen felt a little sweet in his heart after such a reaction. After thinking for a while, Su Chen turned his head to look at Qiu Ruoshuang and answered more seriously. "Perhaps it's because I've seen true fairy-like beauty, so now it's hard for me to be distracted by them." Su Chen did not explain the true beauty of a fairy in his words. But Qiu Ruoshuang actually understood. Between her eyebrows, the discomfort in her heart seemed to be relieved by the words "real fairy-like beauty". Seeing that Qiu Ruoshuang's expression had improved slightly, Su Chen didn't say anything more about it. Instead, he mentioned his previous meeting with Mr. Wenhua. After asking Qiu Ruoshuang, she confirmed that when she asked someone for divination, the person she asked was also old man Wenhua. “The divination that Mr. Wenhua gave me is actually quite similar to what Senior Qiu said at the beginning. If you want to get close to the woman you like, you will encounter numerous obstacles and difficulties." When Su Chen said this, he was actually in a quite relaxed state. But when Qiu Ruoshuang learned that Old Man Wenhua also said this about Su Chen, her expression became a little serious. "Mr. Wenhua, is that really what you said?" "We shouldn't take divination words completely seriously, right? No matter how many obstacles or difficulties there are, they can stop those who are determined to overcome them." People like Su Chen sound determined. But Qiu Ruoshuang still frowned slightly. “Most of Mr. Wenhua’s predictions come true. He described it as a myriad of obstacles and difficulties, so maybe..."
Qiu Ruoshuang took old man Wenhua's divination seriously. The Qiu family asked him to tell fortunes, and most of their predictions came true. After hesitating for a while, Qiu Ruoshuang shook her head, as if she had figured it out. The whole person's mood relaxed a little. "If it's just my business, I can make the decision myself. No matter what obstacles there are, they cannot stop me, Qiu Ruoshuang, from doing what I want to do. " Qiu Ruoshuang guessed that these obstacles were the difference in status between the two of them. After all, Qiu Ruoshuang is the daughter of the head of the Qiu family and the second third-rank warrior in the Qiu family. He is also the youngest third-rank warrior in the entire Jin State. How could the Qiu family allow others to get involved with such a descendant? Thinking of this, both of them thought that all the obstacles and difficulties would come from here. Along the way, the two felt depressed talking about these things, so they didn't mention it. The territory of Jin State was vast, and they traveled there by horse-drawn carriage. It is easy, but the speed of the journey is really slow. If Qiu Ruoshuang was with Qingyuan, she would definitely not want to go there so slowly. Along the way, Su Chen felt that Qiu Ruoshuang's physical condition was still not very good. The third level of Guiyi realm is unstable, and if excessive force is used, it may cause the realm to fall. Qiu Ruoshuang didn't seem to be too worried about these. “This time I went there just to show off my current state. Once they saw it, they calmed down. There will be no problems and no need to use force.” Qiu Ruoshuang looked at Su Chen and explained softly. She also knew that Su Chen would be worried, so she talked to Su Chen first to avoid being anxious along the way. On the way, if they came across a city, they would stop for a while. This time we set off a little earlier, so we had more time. Since Qingyuan was not around, the two of them walked closer. After twelve days of travel, Su Chen and Qiu Ruoshuang have arrived at the northern city, Jiaxue City. Jiaxue City is one of the northernmost cities in Jin State.
Going further, you will reach the northern border of Jin State, which borders on endless wilderness. Su Chen and Qiu Ruoshuang were walking in Jiaxue City, and Qiu Ruoshuang was introducing the situation in the city to Su Chen. Although Jiaxue City borders the wilderness and is located on the northern border, it is larger and more prosperous than many inland cities. For example, when Su Chen went to find Qiu Ruoshuang before, he went to Tonglu City. This is because many warriors come to Jiaxue City every year. There are countless powerful warriors in the Transformation Realm, not to mention the other smaller warriors in lower realms. In the State of Jin, it goes without saying that warriors are the group with the strongest purchasing power. In order to make money, there will definitely be a lot of people gathering around. Even though Jiaxue City is close to the wilderness and looks even more dangerous, it cannot stop you from making money. There are also benefits of tax exemption in the Jin court. Naturally, Jiaxue City's economic and trade aspects far exceed those of conventional cities. Of course, Jiaxue City is not the only border city of Jin State. The State of Jin had a vast territory and a long border. Of course, there are many cities located close to the border. Jiaxue City is on the north-west side, close to the Mingying battlefield, but there is still a distance away. The two walked around a bit, ate some food, and then headed north again. After walking for a while, you need to register the name of the visitor first. Then a report will be made, and only after the report is reviewed can we continue northward. In the northern wilderness, the problem is becoming more and more serious. Martial law has been imposed and all warriors entering must obtain approval. Su Chen is quite satisfied with this control. Dealing with monsters requires a strategic plan, and you can't just attack them in a chaotic manner. Not only can you not defeat the monster, but you can also easily lose your life in it. What's more, there are many demons causing trouble in the north now. The two of them waited here for the front-line staff to review it. This time may be a little longer. After about four hours, the front line finally received the news. If Qiu Ruoshuang wanted to come, naturally no one would stop her.
But the news that she came with a man also spread. "are you sure? Qiu Ruoshuang came with a young man?" I don’t even know who is the first person to ask this question. At this moment, Wei Huaifang of Huangyan Sect widened his eyes and asked in disbelief. “Elder, the people who registered at the pass are from our Huangyan Sect. Even if he lied, he would lie to other people, he wouldn't lie to us, his own family." The young man who was reporting the news was Wei Huaifang's great-nephew. My relationship with him is not just that of a fellow disciple, but also that of a relative. Wei Huaifang was still willing to believe what he said. But what he said made it hard for Wei Huaifang to believe it was true. He didn't have much contact with Qiu Ruoshuang, but he knew her more or less. After all, she is so dazzling that all forces will try to understand her to some extent. Living habits, personality, etc. There are even many people who try to learn it. See if keeping this up can help improve your martial arts talent. The Huangyan Sect, where Wei Huaifang is located, is a friendly force with the Qiu family. Naturally, he had also been listening to Qiu Ruoshuang's analysis for many years. He had met her only a few times, but he knew Qiu Ruoshuang's habits. Don't be fooled by Qiu Ruoshuang's easy-going appearance and polite tone of voice. But in fact, Qiu Ruoshuang was just trying to save some face for others. In a very respectable way, keep people at a distance. (End of this chapter)
