"Well done, you guys did a great job!"

Upon learning that great victories had been won on more than ten battlefields, Zhu Rong was very proud and laughed wildly, patting Qiu Changtian on the shoulder.

Qiu Changtian smiled silently and took a pill to stabilize his fractured shoulder.

"I will reward those who have made contributions. What reward do you want? Just tell me." Zhu Rong asked kindly.

"Please grant me and Feng Tong a marriage!" Qiu Changtian immediately took advantage of the situation.

Xu Yinglian, who was standing next to him, had a complicated expression on her face. She couldn't help but secretly recall the scene when her master wanted to arrange a marriage for her. At that time, her senior brother was stubborn and refused to agree, as if he didn't think highly of her at all.

Even now in the illusion, Senior Brother's performance is much better than it was then...

Thinking of this, I felt an inexplicable sadness in my heart.

"Feng Tong?" Zhu Rong saw that her expression was not right and seemed to be miserable, so he asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, please make the decision for us." Xu Yinglian quickly hid his thoughts and just bowed slightly.

In any case, this illusion mission still needs to be completed.

Zhu Rong was silent for a moment, as if he had misunderstood something, and suddenly said:

"Xu Qiu, intermarriage between humans and demons is rare. The other party is from the Phoenix Clan, and you should know the great pressure that her clan has put on her."

"If you can't eliminate her worries and give her enough sense of security, even if you use your merits to force me to grant you a marriage, I will not agree."

Qiu Changtian: ???

Seeing his confused face, Zhu Rong suddenly became furious and slapped him on the shoulder again:

"Why are you being so fussy? Man up! Don't you know what women want?"

Qiu Changtian remained calm, took another pill to treat the fracture, and said:

"Please let me know, Your Majesty."

"Get out!" Zhu Rong said angrily.

Qiu Changtian had no choice but to leave the tent with Xu Yinglian, the former remained silent and the latter said nothing.

After a while, Xu Yinglian took the initiative to speak:

"It was me who didn't control my emotions and caused him to misunderstand."

"Junior sister, why are you suddenly so emotional?" Qiu Changtian asked gently.

Xu Yinglian did not answer, but just lowered her head, looking depressed.

Qiu Changtian was a smart man after all. After analyzing what had just happened in his mind for a moment, he guessed that his junior sister was upset about the fact that their master had forced them into a marriage.

This Junior Sister Xu... oh, she's acting on impulse! Forget it, as a senior brother, I have to be more tolerant.

Then he whispered:

"If that's the case, then it might not be impossible to do it again."

"Do it again?" Xu Yinglian was a little dumbfounded.

"Feng Tong." Qiu Changtian took her hand and said affectionately, "Marry me."

Xu Yinglian immediately flew into a rage, stretched out his hand and pinched his brother's cheek, saying viciously:

"Brother, how dare you treat me so lightly?"

"Ahem." Qiu Changtian struggled to break free, thinking that proposing in person was indeed too direct and rude for a woman in this world, so he said sincerely, "Brother, you are too abrupt. But what I mean is that if I could do it again, I would take the initiative to ask Master to propose to the Xu family of Tiannan."

This straight ball came so fiercely that Xu Yinglian blushed instantly. She turned around in a hurry, not wanting Qiu Changtian to see the expression on her face, and said in a muffled voice:

"I did not mean that."

"Okay." Qiu Changtian said indifferently.

Junior sister, what do you mean? How could I, your senior brother, not know?

Just keep talking tough!

The two men turned around and looked for the temporary commander in the camp. This commander was Zhu Rong's eighteenth grandson, a certain witch with a burly figure and always smiling on his face. He was very different from those witches whose brains were full of muscles.

"I heard that you two are going to get married?" The other party asked with a smile, "That's a good thing. Now, the conflicts among the three tribes of humans, demons, and witches under the Guangming Palace are increasing. Although the king can suppress them with his prestige, it is not a fundamental solution after all."

"If everyone could put aside their racial prejudices and unite like you two did, the king would probably feel more at ease."

The other party sighed half-truthfully, but Qiu Changtian ignored his flattery and just asked:

"Is there any task that needs to be completed?"

"There are a few missions, but if no one takes them up, the king will issue a military order to forcibly assign them."

"show me."

Qiu Changtian took the list, selected a few tasks, and asked Xu Yinglian:

"How about it?"

"I have no objection." Xu Yinglian replied in a low voice.

"Let's go," Qiu Changtian made the decision.

As a result, Xu Yinglian became more and more depressed.

She didn't know what happened at this moment. She was obviously very resistant to this marriage at the beginning, but now when she thought of her senior brother's rejection attitude at that time, she still felt subconsciously uncomfortable.

And at this time, my senior brother hadn't reacted yet, and deliberately asked me "Can you propose again?" How should I answer as a girl? Don't I have any dignity?

I don’t want to think about it anymore! The more I think about it, the angrier I get!

When they arrived at another section of the river, there were no cultivators from the Zhurong clan present, only a turbulent and turbulent river.

Qiu Changtian looked at the river and saw waves rolling up. He didn't know if there were enemies ambushing in Gonggong's camp below.

The mission this time was to investigate the enemy situation here - although the previous waves of monks who came here said that they did not find any enemies, the battlefield commander was still not very reassured, so he asked Xu Qiu and others to come here to confirm.

Qiu Changtian released his spiritual sense and scanned underwater.

Well, no traces of demons were found down there.

Ordinary cultivators might be fooled, but Qiu Changtian knew that there were many strange secret techniques that could deceive spiritual sense scans, so he said in his heart:

"Ajing, help me scan!"

The Kunlun Mirror still did not respond. Xu Yinglian was already unable to suppress his annoyance, so he simply pinched his Dao formula, and a line of fire shot out of his mouth, shooting towards the river.

The characteristics of most fire-related Taoist magic are extremely violent and difficult to tame. After being cast, they will quickly disperse and burn everything.

However, the "Red Feather Nine Phoenix Fire" that has been passed down in the blood of the Phoenix clan from generation to generation is naturally very easy to control. It can be controlled at will and as easy as using one's arms.

Xu Yinglian compressed it and circulated it in his meridians, and finally turned it into an extremely thin line of fire and shot it out. Not only was it difficult for the enemy to detect and dodge, but the power was also increased several times.

If we ignore the evil-killing properties of the Great Light Fire, the Red Feather Nine Phoenix Fire is clearly more lethal.

The fire line penetrated into the river, and the whole river almost boiled immediately, like a boiling pot.

What is even more terrifying is the countless surging and tumbling bubbles in the boiling water, which contain extremely high-temperature "water and fire conflicting energy". Even if a demon is touched by it, its flesh will decay and its skin will rot!

Not long after, several corpses of aquatic creatures floated up in the river. They looked like shrimps and crabs from the Kun tribe. They had been hiding in the mud at the bottom of the river and floated up after being roasted by the high temperature. Their shells had turned completely red.

"Humph!" Xu Yinglian was murderous and glanced at Qiu Changtian. "Okay, let's go to the next mission!"

That look seemed to want to roast him as well.

Qiu Changtian laughed dryly a few times, thinking that he would have to make some magic weapon to restrain fire in the future.

Otherwise, Junior Sister Xu's fire magic will become more and more numerous and more powerful. If my identity is exposed one day, won't I be chased to the ends of the earth and burned to death with all kinds of real fire?
