Conspiracy
Qin Ruqing suddenly opened her eyes.
It was the same scene as before she left. There were bonfires burning in the camp, and the crackling sound of burning wood echoed in the quiet night. The bonfire in front of her was the largest one. Soldiers built a square frame, and she lit the fire herself, showing a purple-gold color.
Several familiar senior executives were meditating with their eyes closed, their faces shining in the firelight, and they didn't know she had returned.
Qin Ruqing tried to hold back, but still couldn't hold back the nausea. She opened her lips slightly, and the blood that surged up flowed down the corners of her mouth, leaving a line of blood.
Sword cultivators are the most sensitive. As the breeze blew, the old man Feng, who was sitting cross-legged on the top of the mountain, opened his eyes and looked towards the foot of the mountain. Feng Qinxue's beautiful eyebrows moved, and she suddenly opened her eyes, with a flash of light in her eyes. The Fifth Lingyu, who was far away from the crowd but not too far away, changed his lazy posture leaning against the tree, stood up straight, and turned his head towards Qin Ruqing.
"You..." Feng Qinxue looked at Qin Ruqing and spoke hesitantly.
A voice awakened everyone.
"The commander is back!"
"Commander, you——!"
The words were choked.
The few people closest to Qin Ruqing all looked at the bright red at the corners of her mouth, and their expressions were suspicious and uncertain, and they did not dare to speak for a while.
Qin Ruqing smiled, raised his hand and lightly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and briefly explained: "I suffered a little backlash. It's nothing serious."
Wu Sheng and Feng Qinxue looked at each other. If Qin Ruqing was injured, it would be a big deal. If it was serious, it would shake the morale of the army. He quickly relaxed his expression and said, "It's nothing serious... What did the commander find?"
What did he find?
Qin Ruqing couldn't help but think of the scene he saw not long ago.
A pool of thick and strange dark red blood, six bronze beast head statues, huge and familiar beast eyes, and... a mysterious beast corpse.
She exhaled slowly, her voice sounding as if she was afraid of disturbing something, and she said faintly:
"I may have discovered a big secret."
Big secrets cannot be told in front of the army, mainly because Qin Ruqing herself is not sure.
She was shocked, hesitant, and had a little chill that was not easy to detect.
It was not until several senior executives discussed privately that Qin Ruqing detailed what she saw in Tianxing Mountain, focusing on the scene seen behind the third barrier.
"Corpse?" Several people frowned.
Qin Ruqing nodded seriously and described: "The horns are very long and slightly curved, like cow horns. The head is huge, covered with densely packed eyes of different sizes. The eyes are covered with bloodshot and eerie. The largest eye is closed. The body has no breath, but the pressure is so great that people can't breathe."
"With no breath, how can the pressure left by the dead be so great?" Taiyi Sect Master clicked his tongue, "This must be the top master of the beast race, a beast at the level of the king of demon kings."
"I'm afraid there are more than that." Qin Ruqing said meaningfully.
More than that? Several people looked at each other strangely. There is more than just the King of Demon Kings, so the rest are left...
"Could it be the Beast King?" Diwu Sheng spread his hands, and he felt ridiculous when he said it, "It can't be that the Beast King of the Beast Tribe is dead?"
The battle is not over yet, and even the most intense and dangerous moment has not arrived, but it turns out that the Beast King is dead... This, even if it is a dream, I dare not dream so big.
When several people shook their heads, Patriarch Feng murmured: "Not necessarily, maybe, it is really the Beast King."
"The beast tribe uses blood to distinguish levels, and the length of the horns and the number of eyes are often the external manifestation of their bloodline power. The commander just said that the corpse of the mysterious beast tribe has horns as long as an adult man's arm, and a head full of eyes... Let's put it this way, the leader of the Seven Veins Demon King who seriously injured me in the past, has no more than the number of eyes on his head."
The leader of the demon king who can seriously injure the strongest man in their human world, the tribulation-crossing great man, has no more than ten eyes?
The answer seems to be getting closer and closer to the Beast King... Several people looked at Qin Ruqing as if to confirm.
"The corpse in the pool of blood definitely has more than ten eyes. I'm afraid there are more than ten eyes." Qin Ruqing said firmly.
Tens! This... Several people looked at each other, and no one dared to speak for a moment.
Qin Ruqing seemed oblivious and continued talking to herself: "If I remember correctly, that scarlet beast eye should be the soul of the ancient Beast King who escaped from Guixu. His soul was attached to Wumu before. This time when I went to check, he was hiding in the blood pool, his body covered in blood and flesh, and I couldn't tell whether the beast body was Wumu's. But his aura is more than twice as strong as before."
Qin Ruqing's tone was calm, as if the death of the Beast King was not surprising. Everyone calmed down unconsciously and listened to her in detail.
"Combined with the environment at that time, the positions of the six bronze beast-headed statues are also very mysterious. He should be performing some mysterious ritual that can make him stronger, but it is obvious that the ritual has not been completed yet - he can't get away." Qin Ruqing said.
"How do you know he can't get away?" Diwu Sheng was surprised. Qin Ruqing's tone was too firm.
"Because, he knew my position clearly and had the power to kill me, but when I discovered his biggest secret, he simply crushed me and drove me away." Qin Ruqing raised the corner of her mouth slightly, with a subtle irony.
So, in the end, she just coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood and suffered a little backlash from the rules.
"What he should have done most is to kill you on the spot when he knew your location." Feng Qinxue said in a cold voice, continuing Qin Ruqing's words, "He didn't do that, there is only one possibility: the ceremony was at a critical moment, and he had no time to pay attention to it and couldn't get away." "
If that's the case, this is our chance to counterattack!" At the end, his tone couldn't help but become excited.
But such a major matter cannot be determined by a few words of speculation. Ancestor Feng looked up at the sky above his head. The sky in the beast world seemed lower, and the stars seemed bigger in the beast world.
She calmed down and said, "All of this is just our guess."
"It would be great if we could determine the effect of that ritual. Knowing what the other party is doing, we can make further plans."
"But this kind of secret taboo technique, I'm afraid only the beasts themselves can know what's going on? It has to be a high-level demon with bloodline inheritance." The fifth Sheng said worriedly. A
high-level demon with bloodline inheritance?
Qin Ruqing's heart moved, and his distant gaze was cast towards Sirius in the night, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
-
When the wolf king received the mysterious message, a smiling face almost immediately appeared in his mind.
This is the most common way of communication among beastmen - wind leaves are mixed with spiritual consciousness, and the leaves follow the wind to find the owner of the communication. As long as a beast takes the leaf and reads it, it will hear the information contained in the wind. It only rings once, and no signature is left.
No signature means that no one knows who sent the message. But the wolf king is certain that it is that human!
That cunning human female!
The wolf king can even pronounce her name in the difficult human language, "Qin Ruqing", or "human leader".
She invited him to meet - "There is something important to discuss", the original words in the wind leaf.
The wolf king almost couldn't help laughing, and felt ironic about this. One of them is the leader of the tribe, and the other is the leader of the human race. What could they discuss in private? Who knows if it is a conspiracy?
There are countless legitimate doubts in his heart, but the wolf king still went.
The beast god is above, and he is extremely loyal to the beasts. But the wolf king always has an inexplicable intuition in his heart that discussing matters with that human in private is something that is allowed by the beast god.
Even though that human led the human race to kill countless beasts, the wolf king still feels that the human does not seem to be that hostile to the beasts?
Damn it.
The wolf king Bald showed up with such hesitation. When he saw Qin Ruqing, the first thing she said was:
"My king, I thought you were afraid of an ambush and didn't dare to come? I have already prepared ten wind blades to urge you, but the last nine were not used."
It was still that familiar face, and he could never say a good word, which made the beast angry.
The wolf king immediately began to regret and overturned his previous thoughts. He felt that he was a fool to come here and listen to the teasing of this human!
The wolf king turned around and left.
Qin Ruqing smiled and disappeared like the wind. When her figure gathered again, she just blocked the wolf king's way forward.
This mysterious method again!
The wolf king gritted his teeth, tried to look fierce, and said in a low voice: "Human, what on earth do you want to do!"
As a result, Qin Ruqing's face changed, and she changed her previous smile and said solemnly: "There is a major event related to the future of the beasts, and I came to inform the king."
The wolf king almost couldn't help laughing, and he did laugh.
"Is it necessary for a human like you to inform the future of the beasts? Are you going to represent your race to surrender? If so, I am very happy to see it." After dealing with Qin Ruqing for a long time, the wolf king also learned her sarcasm.
Qin Ruqing's skill in talking was acquired through years of practice. He smiled indifferently and said, "The Ju tribe is coming to surrender? I'm sorry to disappoint you, Your Majesty. I have no such plan for the time being. This time, I came for something more important than the Ju tribe coming to surrender."
The Wolf King did not speak.
Something more important than the Ju tribe coming to surrender - is there really such an important matter, and it involves the beast tribe, and you, a human, need to tell it?
He shook his head mockingly, not even looking at Qin Ruqing, thinking that if he stayed here any longer, he would be just as stupid as he was.
Qin Ruqing neither stopped nor persuaded, he just stood there leisurely, and said lightly, word by word:
"This matter concerns the safety of your noble beast king."
"We suspect that your noble beast king has been framed and killed."
The wolf king had already raised his front paws to leave, and upon hearing this, he suddenly changed direction, and rushed over like lightning, throwing Qin Ruqing to the ground, and stretched out his sharp claws that were shining with cold light, pressing against the base of Qin Ruqing's throat.
"I think you are different from other humans, and you have a close relationship with me, but that doesn't mean I can tolerate you provoking me and the dignity of the beast race again and again!"
The wolf king's voice was low, and the five beast pupils opened at the same time, staring at Qin Ruqing dangerously, shrinking into the shape of sharp needles.
Qin Ruqing laughed wantonly under his sharp gaze, "You don't believe it?"
"It has horns as long as an adult man's legs, eyes all over its head, the largest one is like a lantern, with a cow's head and a horse's body..." Qin Ruqing accurately described the body features of the beast king, "Isn't this the beast king of your tribe?"
"Just yesterday, I went to Tianxing Mountain to inquire about the news and found that the beast king of your tribe was dead."
Qin Ruqing's tone was like telling a story, floating and flat, and her voice didn't sound real.
But the more she downplayed it, the more frightened the wolf king felt.
"There should be something wrong with your clan's prince Wumu. I don't believe you can't notice the changes in him during this period."
"You can say that I am scaremongering, or you can think that I am playing a trick on you, or that I am plotting something - the truth will be known by your own investigation. Even if I say something sweet, it can't change the truth."
Qin Ruqing's body, which was suppressed by the wolf king's claws, began to turn into a raging fire.
The raging fire burned the pads of flesh under the wolf king's feet, which was a response to his previous attack.
With clear and intense pain, the wolf king and Qin Ruqing looked at each other for the last time. Before the smoky and fiery human figure completely dissipated, the wolf king heard her last sentence.
"If the king finally finds out that I didn't lie, you can come here again in three days. By then, Ruqingyuan and the king will conspire on the real big thing!"
