Chapter 477 The Hunt Begins

Daxuan Dynasty, the eastern border!
A checkpoint was set up in a surrounding area that must pass through when entering the Daxuan Dynasty.

As for the very important level of the Fire Refining Sect, the captain's strength is much stronger than that of Zhao Quan, and he is a martial artist with five realms, named Mao Tian.

"Captain, you said that we have been setting up cards here for many days, and we haven't even found a hair of Lu Xun. Does it mean that he won't come to the Daxuan Dynasty at all?"

A disciple of the Fire Refining Sect with perfect four realms seems to have a good relationship with Captain Mao Tian. Anyway, other disciples of the Fire Refining Sect would not dare to say that.

It is indeed as the person said, the weather in August is still extremely hot, and it is really hard work to guard the checkpoint under the scorching sun every day.

It would be fine if they could wait for the target, but they all knew that there were hundreds of levels in the Fire Refining Sect, large and small, so why would Lu Xun leave here.

Since there is only one place that is doomed to make great achievements, the meaning of their staying here is actually not great at all. Everyone knows that it is thankless to touch the one-hundredth of a chance.

"Shut up, what are you complaining about?"

Captain Mao Tian was naturally a little irritable, but at the moment when he heard what the other party said, he couldn't help scolding, and then looked around.

"Let me tell you, this is a task personally assigned by the suzerain. If you let Lu Xun go because of your negligence, you should know the consequences?"

Seeing that everyone is a little weak, Mao Tian can only emphasize one more sentence, this is a threatening word, and it also makes everyone cheer up a little bit.

Sometimes, pressure is also a kind of motivation.

Huo Lianzong is the suzerain Tang Lian's Yiyantang, and there is not even a deputy suzerain. If Lu Xun really wants to enter the territory of the Daxuan Dynasty from them, he may not even be able to guarantee an easy death.

"Cheer up for me. The suzerain said that whoever can get the first-hand clues will be promoted to the head of the headquarters immediately. If you follow me in the future, you will naturally be able to rise and become popular!"

It seems that Mao Tian is quite good at boosting morale. After threatening with words, he painted big cakes again.

Everyone who heard the word "Hall Master" really cheered up a little bit, looking forward to that Lu Xun passing through his level.

You must know that the masters of the various halls of the Fire Refining Sect generally have to reach the sixth level to be eligible, but this time in order to mobilize the power of the entire sect, Tang Lian made an exception.

Perhaps this is just a matter of words for Tang Lian, but for these five-level martial artists of the Huo Lianzong, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If one can take the position of hall master, not only will one's status be instantly different in the Fire Refining Sect, but also one's cultivation resources will be more abundant, and the chances of breaking through to the sixth realm will be even greater.

This is also the reason why many captains can still stick to their posts when they are upset.

Sometimes, blind pressure cannot convince people. What can really win people's hearts is profit.

"Ok?"

Just when Mao Tian's few words boosted morale and he was a little complacent, a figure caught his eyes, making his eyes flicker slightly, and he recognized the identity of that person at a glance.

"Zhao Quan, you are not guarding your checkpoint, what are you doing here?"

Speaking of which, although Four Realms Martial Artist Zhao Quan is the captain of a small team, he is Mao Tian's subordinate. The checkpoint guarded by the former is not an important place, but after all, he cannot leave his post without authorization.

Therefore, the moment Mao Tian recognized Zhao Quan's identity, his face darkened.

This Zhao Quan usually seems to be quite obedient, but now he dares to disobey his orders?
"My lord, calm down, congratulations, my lord!"

Zhao Quan's face looked a little stiff, and the two words he said were even more inconsistent, but it made Mao Tian's heart move, thinking of a possibility.

"Could it be?"

Mao Tian's eyes were bright, because in his impression, Zhao Quan would not have the courage to leave the checkpoint without permission, and now that he appeared in front of him, he must have made some discoveries.

"My lord, there are three people coming from me, their behavior is very suspicious, one of them is probably Lu Xun!"

Zhao Quan didn't hesitate at all, when he leaned close to Mao Tian and said these few words softly, this martial artist with great achievements in five realms immediately beamed with joy.

"Haha, our luck is indeed the best!"

Mao Tian laughed a few times triumphantly, but he didn't lose his mind. He lowered his head and asked, "What are the three opponents?"

"If I'm not mistaken, it should be two four-level consummations, and the other woman only has two levels!"

Zhao Quan was talking nonsense, but Mao Tian didn't have the slightest doubt. At the same time, he also thought about why Zhao Quan came to him. The two four realms are perfect, and Zhao Quan is indeed not capable of dealing with it.

"It's really a great achievement that fell from the sky, let's go and have a look!"

Reassuring, Mao Tian waved his hand, and then dozens of people set off in a mighty way.

Now that we have received the news that Lu Xun is suspected of appearing, we only need to leave two people to watch the checkpoint here.

laugh!
However, at this moment, when Mao Tian had just turned around, and was full of ambition and ordered his troops to reap that great achievement, a soft sound suddenly came to everyone's ears.

Including Mao Tian himself, he also heard the soft sound, and then he felt a pain in the back of his heart, which went all the way to his chest, which made him lower his head in astonishment.

I saw a blood-stained transparent spike coming out directly from Mao Tian's chest. Looking at the position where it passed through, it was obvious that even the heart had been pierced.

"how?"

For a moment, everyone who turned around was stunned.

Especially when they saw that the other end of the transparent spike was held in Zhao Quan's hand, they felt that their brains were a little bit overwhelmed.

"Zhao Quan, what are you doing?"

The four-level consummation martial artist who spoke earlier was the first to come back to his senses, and couldn't help shouting, but he didn't make any movements, only fear in his heart.

What is the reason that Zhao Quan, who has always only known to be sympathetic in front of Mao Tian, ​​has the courage to kill people directly?
This martial artist with perfect four realms only felt that there was a huge conspiracy going on in his mind, but he couldn't figure it out all the time. As for the others, they were so arrogant that they didn't dare to speak out.

"Hmph, this guy is usually domineering and arrogant, and has humiliated me many times, shouldn't he deserve to die?"

Zhao Quan's face was full of righteous indignation. When he said these words, many people lowered their heads, and it seemed that they were also bullied by Mao Tian.

It's just that Mao Tian is a strong martial artist with five realms. Even if they are bullied or robbed of their training resources, they dare not speak out or even show it on their faces.

In fact, although Zhao Quan's unexpected backstab surprised everyone, many people were very happy, secretly thinking that this guy Mao Tian was finally dead, and he would be relieved in the future.

Little did they know that the guy named Zhao Quan in front of him was actually someone pretending to be him.

He didn't even know Mao Tian's name, so he could only use "this guy" instead, and no one doubted his identity at all.

Because almost everyone has seen Mao Tian humiliate Zhao Quan.

This guy beat and scolded his subordinates at every turn, and Zhao Quan was the one who was humiliated the most.

It has to be said that Lu Xun hit the right side this time, making everyone think he was Zhao Quan, and it was only by surprise that he killed Mao Tian.

"Zhao Quan, if you do this, won't you be afraid that the Fire Refining Sect will hunt you down to the ends of the earth?"

Among these people, Mao Tian naturally still has fans. For example, the Four Realms Consummation Martial Artist who spoke before, he hesitated for a while and dared not make a move, so he directly brought out the background of the Fire Lianzong.

In this area, the Fire Refining Sect is the dominant family, and they will not show any mercy to the disciples who betray the sect. Sometimes the punishment is even more serious than outsiders who offend the Fire Refining Sect.

"Hmph, anyway, it's better to live under this guy than to die, why not give it a go!"

Zhao Quan snorted again, then stared at the person who spoke, and said coldly: "If you want to avenge him, just come here, but I can't guarantee that you will survive!"

Although the strength of this martial artist with perfect four realms may not be inferior to Zhao Quan, but at this moment, he has no intention of making a move at all.

He and Mao Tian are just a combination of interests. Now that Mao Tian is dead, how can he do something that is not beneficial to him at all?

"I, Zhao Quan, do things alone. If the Fire Refining Sect is looking for it, just look for me. Everyone, just leave it alone!"

Zhao Quan, played by Lu Xun, does not intend to kill them all.

His idea was to kill the captains of these checkpoint squads, killing all the way there, I'm afraid it would also make the Fire Refining Sect go crazy, right?

Pretending to be Zhao Quan was just Lu Xun's whim, but other than this team, others may not trust Zhao Quan so much. It seems that this identity will not be used in the future.

Today's incident will inevitably spread, and Zhao Quan will definitely be on the wanted list of Lianzong.

But Lu Xun defined this as a personal enmity, and the other party probably wouldn't find out that someone was hunting and killing the disciples of the Fire Refining Sect for a while.

"Tsk tsk, this Zhao Quan, usually dare not fart in front of Mao Tian, ​​I didn't expect to be so bloody today!"

Looking at the back of Zhao Quan leaving, one of the disciples of the Huo Lian Sect, who had been bullied by Mao Tian, ​​couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and his eyes were full of joy when he looked at Mao Tian's body.

"Hmph, what's the use of being brave for a while, can he still escape the chasing and killing of Huo Lianzong?"

The Martial Artist of the Four Realms snorted coldly. As soon as the words came out, everyone was silent, secretly thinking that this was indeed the case.

Presumably from today onwards, Zhao Quan can only die in exile.

And in the hearts of these Fire Refining Sect disciples, the fate of the other party must have been found out by the Law Enforcement Captain of the Fire Refining Sect, and brought back to the sect for severe punishment, as a warning to others.
