Chapter 159
The Shen family also didn't know that the old man, who never played by the rules, left the people who were following him behind when he approached Sunset City and entered the city alone. When Shen Rujie got in touch with them, they were also very anxious.
Fortunately, the city is at least safer than outside, and it is better to limit the area than to search randomly.
But in the face of the disaster, the city seemed restless and it was difficult to find people at this time, especially in the big market in the east of the city.
Most of the Wu family's forces were mobilized to the north and west of the city. Many merchants in the big market here were ordinary people with low martial arts skills. When they heard the roar of beasts and felt the increasingly strong spiritual power in the air, some people began to feel helpless and panic, but they didn't know where to run. Some even felt that the east side of the city had been abandoned.
The Wu family in the city has indeed never paid much attention to the big market. Now they have received news that there is also a beast tide there, but they have no intention of transferring people there.
After all, Xizhou's medicine market is in a state of semi-monopoly by the Shen family, and the market dominated by medicinal materials is not very profitable, otherwise they would not have allowed some scoundrels to bully and dominate the market. The merchants have suffered for a long time and have nowhere to turn to, and the atmosphere has become worse and worse. When Diemeng came, this cancer was solved.
Diemeng's location is one of the places closest to the east gate of the city, but at this moment, the door of the drugstore was still opened correctly, and none of the guys inside escaped.
If there is anyone who is in a panic, they can sit in front of the door for a while, as they sell some pills there at a low price.
Today’s limited edition is the Qingxinsan, which can help you calm your mind and spirit.
The owners of nearby stalls were also anxious and ran to tell them to close their shops quickly. Once chaos broke out, it was common for some people to rush into the market to steal things instead of dealing with the beast tide. However, Die Meng did not panic.
Yes, this place is specially taken care of by the City Lord's Mansion. Even if someone is blind, it is impossible for him to seize this place.
But not long after, a group of spiritual masters with dirty intentions came to the big market to steal things. Although they were two streets away, before they could make a move and just kicked open a door, they were knocked to the ground by Diemeng's goateed accountant with a big knife.
He is a ninth-star Earth Rank spiritualist, and ordinary spiritualists have no way of competing with him.
"It's not Butterfly Dream we're robbing!"
"You can't rob anyone. Our boss just likes to meddle in other people's business. If you don't want to die, get out of here."
Several earth-level warriors of Diemeng were guarding the gates of the big market here. Yu Yinyin's bee crystal butterfly flew out and kept an eye on everything going on here like eyes.
Everyone who thought they had no chance of survival seemed to calm down after seeing this. Some people simply sat in front of the Dream Butterfly door, which made them feel more at ease. Some people also asked quietly, "Can you really protect this place?"
The clerk smiled at him and said, "If you have the ability, you will protect him. You can't just stand by and watch. In business, harmony brings wealth."
Although their target is the demonic energy rift, it's only a small effort, so we'll help if we can. Besides, without that bunch of troublemakers, the quality of the medicine that Zhang Fu brought back last time is very good.
Small merchants huddled together in Diemeng, as if they had found some shelter.
It is not enough to defend the big market, the most important thing is the beast tide driven by the demonic cracks.
Hundreds of flying beasts came first, and some people had already seen them from afar. Then, several figures suddenly appeared in the yard of the pharmacy, shot out like arrows, and then landed on the city wall.
The three men released their spiritual essences, some swung their whips to throw aside the spiritual beasts that were approaching the city, and some used their spiritual energy to build a barrier that no spiritual beasts could break through.
well?
They are all Heavenly Rank? Is it Diemeng's Heavenly Rank?
Are all pharmacies nowadays so powerful?
Anyway, it seems they are saved!
With a heavenly master in charge, the people in the big market seemed to have gained confidence all of a sudden. Although the merchants were not very powerful, each of them had to find a few guards, so they could still take action. Now, they were also urged by Die Meng to summon their spiritual essence and go up.
There are still a few fish that have escaped under the barrier held up by the Heavenly Stage. Ordinary spiritual masters can deal with them as long as they have more people.
Yu Yinyin naturally stayed by Lin Qinghen's side. There were many alchemists in the pharmacy, so there must be no mistakes.
The highest place in the yard has three floors and is a lookout. When Lin Qinghen looked outside, he felt that it was gloomy, and there was a black line in the distance. He couldn't see clearly what was going on. He opened his eyes wide but couldn't make out anything. He sighed and could only look down. Forget it, he didn't understand the fight, so he would wait until Jiuxiao came back.
However, the people in this market did give him a bit of a surprise. Although they were weak, they would still resist.
But even at this time, there were still customers coming. Lin Qinghen heard the waiter come to report that it was an old man with a white beard. He walked around the store, bought some pills, and then walked to the counter and asked to see the owner of the pharmacy.
Yu Yinyin didn't want to pay attention to him, but the old man didn't leave. She looked down and her face changed.
"When did he arrive?"
Lin Qinghen turned around and asked, "Who?"
Yu Yinyin was silent for a long time, then said, "Well...your grandpa."
The person who can really make the decision in the Shen family is the old man of the Shen family, Shen Sheng, an old man who looks very kind but is actually not that simple.
Of course they had to meet. Yu Yinyin and Chen Banyu discussed for a while, then went downstairs together and invited the person to the second floor, where they still discussed matters.
The old man looked at the two of them for a moment, and his first words were very unusual: "Yinyin, tell me the truth, is this store really yours?"
Yu Yinyin didn't show any fear when facing him: "What do you mean?"
"You and Banyu are indeed very powerful, but you are not alchemists. It is strange that you can research these things. Although Rujie told me that you also have Zhang Fu, I know that Zhang Fu has never been interested in these ways." Old man Shen Sheng sat opposite, looking down at the pills in his hand one by one, "You are all famous old men, and you are all very capable, but I always feel that the one who made these should be a very young child."
Young, with creativity and abilities that others don't have, and a different approach, this is what Shen Sheng subconsciously feels, or it can be said that it is a judgment based on experience.
This person hiding behind the scenes is very powerful, and he wants to take a look.
"Yinyin, Banyu, I know you want that spot, I can convince Fuxin Miaofa to give it to you. But I came alone this time, just to meet the real owner."
Yu Yinyin was also silent for a long time.
After so many years, Mr. Shen is still this straightforward person.
But she was not afraid. She blinked her eyes, did not answer for a moment, then raised her hand and poured a cup of tea for the old man.
"No hurry," she said, "I think you haven't really understood us Diemeng, and haven't figured out how to do this deal. Old man, let me be clear, it's not us who need help, maybe it's your Shen family who needs help from us."
Shen Sheng frowned, then reached out and took her tea.
At this time, it was very difficult for Chen Rujie and Fu Xin Miaofa to find people in the city. Unfortunately, because of some false news that interfered with their vision, they did not go to Diemeng at the first time, and naturally did not meet the old man.
When I went over there, Chen Sheng was drinking tea with Yu Yinyin. The two seemed to have finished their conversation and were silent.
Shen Rujie breathed a sigh of relief and hurried over to say, "You scared us to death! No matter where you are going, you should have told us."
"Nothing," Elder Shen waved his hand, "I haven't seen Yinyin and Yaozun for a long time, so we just chatted for a while."
"Yes," Yu Yinyin also laughed, "It seems that your old man really values our pharmacy and is willing to come here to talk to me. But unfortunately, now is not a good time. We have to wait until the city calms down."
"Don't worry, nothing will happen," Yuan Jiang added, "Our mountain master used the fastest spiritual weapon and will bring people here soon. It will be resolved immediately. When the time comes, our mountain master will talk to you about this transaction."
Yu Yinyin smiled but didn't say anything else.
She thought to herself, your solution and my solution are probably not the same thing.
At this moment, the Wu family still didn't know that the beast tide was caused by the Silver Emperor Fox Wolf in the demonic energy crack. Only by solving the problem there could they solve this problem. The beast tide seemed to be approaching, so of course it was more important to solve the problem in front of them.
Yuan Jiang also thought so, so he was not in a hurry. After all, the few combat spirit masters they brought with them were not enough, and the city was well controlled, with the three city walls intact. Once Leng Qiuyue arrived and cleaned up the demonic crack, everything would be fine.
Judging from the scale of this demonic energy rift, it is not something that an ordinary Heaven-level rank can handle. The strength of the cities near Sunset City is not as good as that of the Wu family, so they dare not move forward.
But soon everyone discovered that the evil energy in the air was gradually fading, and the usually gloomy weather began to clear up.
The beast tide that attacked the city did not seem to last too long. As the demonic energy weakened, the roars of beasts outside gradually disappeared, as if they were beginning to retreat.
Yuan Jiang was also a little confused.
Hmm? Is the mountain master here so early?
However, he didn't know that Leng Qiuyue had just arrived with his men at this moment.
She received the news on the way, so she went straight to the demonic crack and planned to take a look at the situation first.
But before she got close, she heard a huge whimpering sound from the Silver Emperor Fox Wolf, which was a sign of its impending death. When she rushed over, she ran into those people standing on the corpse of the giant beast, and the evil spirit had already begun to dissipate.
Where did this person come from? Do you know the rules?
Demonic cracks will spread. Generally speaking, the big powers will not take action immediately after discovering them, but will wait for it to incubate for a period of time, so that they can maximize their benefits.
But those people should have taken action as soon as the cracks appeared, which means they quickly solved the problem in its infancy. The speed was fast, but the loss of resources was also great.
But no matter what, the largest Silver Emperor Fox Wolf driven by evil spirit is not simple. Now that I have caught up with it, even if it is not fair, I can still rob it.
The leader of the other side looked no ordinary man, with strong strength. He was wielding a long sword with a tiger blade. Leng Qiuyue thought there would be a fierce battle, and just as she was about to release her spiritual essence, she heard him speak with a smile.
"Master Leng Shan, wait a minute. Look carefully before you act. Do you know who we are?"
On the other hand, Yuan Jiang was certain that his mountain master had arrived ahead of time and resolved the demonic energy rift. The beast tide in the city receded, and the losses were not great. After clearing the accounts, there were even some resources gained. Because of the proper response, this "disaster" was not a bad thing after all.
Although he was a little puzzled, why did the mountain master have to be so anxious?
But not long after, he saw Leng Qiuyue with a cold face, leading a group of people from Fuxin Miaofa to Diemeng's door. When he mentioned this matter, his face became even worse, and he said, "It was not solved by me."
Yuan Jiang: “……?”
Impossible, then who else?
Leng Qiuyue was silent for a while, then squeezed out two words from between her teeth: "... Die Meng."
If it were anyone else, she would have snatched it away on the spot, but not Die Meng.
They have something more necessary for the Fu Xin Mi Fa, which is far from being as effective as nipping the demonic energy cracks in the bud in one go.
Everyone present looked in disbelief.
It was expected that Die Meng brought a few Heavenly Ranks with her. It would be strange if Yu Yinyin and Yao Zun, with their abilities, didn’t have a few Heavenly Rank low-stars following them. But aren’t they all guarding the city?
Not long after, a group of people came from behind and verified what Leng Qiuyue said.
Looking up, the man in the distance started to speak. He was tall and thin, and looked very elegant. "I'm sorry that I'm late because I had to spend time cleaning up the spoils. Let me introduce myself. I'm Fu Qingping. I was supposed to be here with Yinyin, but some things delayed me. But now I see that I've made it."
No one had seen Fu Qingping before, but this man looked like he had just finished a battle. If one had a better sense of him, one would be able to tell his level.
Seven stars of heaven.
The most important thing is that there are people behind.
Then there was Bai Muchuan, who also broke through the level and was already a six-star heavenly rank. The reason these two came a step later was that they had already found the opportunity to break through after dealing with Wang Yulin, and then used the resources of the ruins to push forward, and successfully broke through the bottleneck period that had lasted for many years.
Beizhou has been stabilized and they can come out.
Many people knew Ye Rumei who followed behind. It was said that she had left the Yin family and ran away when faced with a disaster. Now she has entered a butterfly dream.
Although his reputation is average, he is indeed a genuine Heavenly Rank Six-Star.
Leng Qiuyue also knew that there were actually more than that. There were four Heaven-Ranks and quite a few Earth-Ranks following these people. They were just there cleaning up the battlefield and counting supplies, and did not come over right away.
Including the ones that Die Meng brought earlier, there are ten Heaven-rank combatants alone, and including Yu Yinyin who can take action, there are eleven in total. There are also quite a few Earth-rank ones. With this lineup, they really have a great chance of winning.
After all, regardless of other things, Fu Qingping's level is seven stars in the heavenly rank, which is the level of the last-ranked head of the seven families.
Just because it was Die Meng, not only could she not snatch her Fu Xin Miao Fa away, she also had to be there to help!
This was the first time that Chen Banyu had met these people. To be honest, he was also surprised. Before today, he didn't know that Lin Qinghen's capital could be so strong.
These people seemed to have little to do with the Yin family. Even Ye Rumei had already run away as the outside world knew. Logically speaking, it was impossible for her to return to the Yin family.
But it didn't stop him from calming down and pretending to be cool immediately.
"I told you at the time that Diemeng wanted that position not just for fun, and our powerful fighters would be here soon, but you didn't believe me. Look, they're here now, aren't they?"
"Indeed," Fu Qingping followed up on his words and added, "We are all happy to be Die Meng's thugs."
These few Heavenly Ranks were shocking enough, but what no one present expected was that there was actually one missing.
Leng Qiuyue did not look closely at the body of the Silver Emperor Fox Wolf at that time, otherwise she would have discovered that the fatal wound that caused its death was a sword wound.
