Valkyrie Storm
Chapter 671: Cold Moon Academy
Chapter 671: Cold Moon Academy
Tang Yan braved the strong wind and trekked among the hills full of yellow sand for two full days. At noon on the third day, he finally saw the "color" beyond the "yellow sand". Slowly, trees are planted among the mountains, the greenery is abundant, and scattered villages are dotted around.
It's like the 'Dragon Palace' in the 'Yellow Sand Ocean'.
These villages are not too big, but the environment is very quiet, and the number of people coming and going is somewhat disproportionate.There are rough and fierce mercenaries, shopkeepers selling goods, children playing around, and some young masters and ladies in luxurious clothes and riding strange beasts.
"It's been a long time since I saw a normal human being, ah... Canglan Ancient Land... I, Tang Yan, are back again..." Tang Yan took a deep breath and smiled strangely.Patting the dust off his body, he came to the gate of the village, glanced at it, and saw a half-person-high wooden portrait beside the gate, it was himself? !
"Wanted order: Tang Yan! Kill six Martial Venerables, including the young prince of Prince Jing's Mansion and the successor of the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, and offer a reward of one million gold coins, two local martial arts, unlimited time, life and death!"
It can be seen that the wooden portrait has existed for a long time, and the picture is already a bit blurred, and no one of the passing tourists and mercenaries paid much attention to it.Just think about it, even the young prince of Prince Jing's mansion dared to kill him, and if you think about it with your fingers, he is a powerful lunatic.
What's more, Tang Yan's journey in the middle of the Black Rock Ridge has been spread with embellishment. Without the strength of a second-rank martial master, or a significant army, who would dare to take this order?
"The style of painting is really rough, brother is so ugly?" Tang Yan rubbed his cheek and muttered.
Blackwater Leech said: "It seems that my guess is correct. Prince Jing's Mansion and Heavenly Demon Holy Land have concluded that you will come back alive. Be as careful as possible and investigate the specific situation first."
"Brother? Are you interested in this Tang Yan?" A rough voice came from the tea stand outside the camp.
Tang Yan looked back and saw a group of ragged mercenaries resting around a tea table. The strongest was the second-rank Martial King Realm, and the other eight were all peak Martial Ancestors. They were a very strong mercenary team. The one who shouted at him was Captain Wu Wang in the team.
There are more than a dozen such simple tea stalls and wine stalls outside the village, scattered in branches, and there are quite a few mercenary teams gathered in groups of three or four, the number is more than a hundred, all of them are wild, bold, unrestrained and brave , of course there is no shortage of dark and sinister people.
These guys have been licking blood all year round, and their life experience is cruel and rich. They are not easy to mess with, but... the easier it is to understand the situation where there is a mixture of fish and dragons.
"Shopkeeper, bring your best wine to my new and strong friends, come to three jars!" Tang Yan walked over with a smile, and threw a silver coin to the storekeeper.
"Guest officer, wait a moment, right away!!" The store owner was pleasantly surprised, and hurriedly rushed to the secret outlet behind the booth, rummaging through his inventory.
"Brother is bold, I like it! Call me Mengwei!" Captain Wu Wang laughed, stretched out his hand and shook Tang Yan firmly.Secretly made another gesture quietly, the rest of the team members understood, continued to drink tea lazily, and privately protected their parcels without any trace, which were full of animal armor and bones they hunted, and they were going to sell them for money.
They were very defensive and worried that Tang Yan had other intentions.
"Yan Yan." Tang Yan reported his name casually, and sat down at the wooden table: "Did you catch that guy named Tang Yan?"
"Catch? Hmph, how to catch! I have been missing for two years. It is said that I was dragged into the Eternal Beast Mountain at the Ridge of the Black Stone. After entering there, can I still survive? I don't know what happened to Prince Jing's Mansion and the Heavenly Demon Holy Land. He didn't make much noise, and suddenly issued a wanted order to the entire Yan Kingdom a year ago."
Mengwei took the wine jar handed over by the shopkeeper, took a deep breath, the hot smell made his face flushed, his eyes lit up, he raised his head and took a few sips: "Good wine!"
"Then Tang Yan is really a ruthless person, he actually killed the young prince in front of the whole city." The rest of the mercenary team hurriedly took over the other two jars, scrambling to pour wine and drink wildly.
"Since they issued a wanted warrant, there should be some clues. Has anyone accepted the order?"
"Yes!! Why not!" Meng Wei took two sips of wine, and he was not so vigilant. He leaned in front of Tang Yan and said in a low voice, "Brother, I'll tell you a secret message from the people in Prince Jing's mansion." It is said that some of those who were dragged into the Eternal Beast Mountain came back alive, including the young master of the Ren family and the little saint from Yaochi."
"Really?"
"This is the top-secret news that the killers got from Prince Jing's mansion, and it has been spread in the past few months. Prince Jing's mansion guessed that Tang Yan might still be alive, so they spared no expense to start counting. At first, there were very few people who took orders. , because I don’t want to believe it, but now... tsk tsk... you should go to the Assassin’s Guild, it’s busy.”
Another mercenary who was younger said in a low voice: "It is said that the orders are all big figures of Wuzun level! Even some demon hunters in the Central Plains have taken orders. Some time ago, someone spread the news that the order Thirteen killers and demon hunters, and four large mercenary unions."
Mengwei said again: "Even the army has been ordered, and the five major legions have all sent out capable troops to search and arrest. General Zhenguo's Mansion, Yuanwei General's Mansion, and Prince Hui's Mansion have all been searched. We don't know the specific situation, but Look at the momentum... probably that lunatic Tang Yan has really returned."
A fat mercenary giggled strangely: "After the Black Rock Gobi War, Yan Kingdom was in chaos for a long time. Prince Jing's Mansion and Heavenly Demon Holy Land almost fought with the royal family and the General's Mansion. It must be said that the Sixth Princess secretly assisted Tang Yan. Later Together with Jinyanlou and other academy factions, they put pressure on the royal family and demanded that the fifth prince, sixth princess and Yanluo be severely punished."
"The result?" Tang Yan clinked glasses with them with a faint smile.
"Of course the royal family will not compromise. There was a lot of trouble, and even the army was frequently mobilized. But then, without knowing what happened, the emperor suddenly demoted the fifth prince, and the sixth princess was also driven out of the imperial city.
Yan Luo... That witch is very chic, General Zhen Guo is old, guarding the calf, carrying a spear and directly rushing into Prince Jing's mansion, good guy, pointing at Prince Jing's nose and cursing eight generations of ancestors. "
While talking, the fat mercenary laughed, and the rest of the mercenaries also laughed happily, obviously thinking of the chaotic scene at that time, it was very lively.
"Both the fifth prince and the sixth princess have been demoted? Where did they go?" Tang Yan pretended to be unintentional and asked.
"Crazy Sand City."
"where?"
"Where is it?" Meng Wei and the others withdrew their smiles and looked at him strangely: "You don't know?"
"I just came from Zhongyuan, and it's the first time I entered the country of Yan."
Mengwei's suspicious eyes stopped on Tang Yan's face, and suddenly he felt a little familiar, but he didn't dare to look at the fierce black spots on it, so he didn't care too much: "Kuangsha City is in the middle of the wind-eroded hills, It is the largest ancient city within a radius of thousands of miles, and it is said that it will become the fiefdom of the fifth prince in the future.
The fifth prince's appointment as king in advance is equivalent to cutting off his possibility of becoming emperor.
The sixth princess was expelled from the imperial city, which meant that she would marry directly when she was 20 years old.The two of them have become brothers and sisters in trouble, and the fifth prince is trying to find her a husband's family. "
"Where is this place in the wind-eroded hills?" Tang Yan took out a silver coin and pushed it in front of Meng Wei: "I'm new here, and I don't understand some things, so I hope Brother Meng can give me some advice."
Mengwei was still a little impatient just now, and a bright smile suddenly appeared on his face: "You are asking the right person, I, Mengwei, are famous for knowing everything. This is Fengdu Town, full of scattered villages, located in the wind-eroded hills of the south.
The wind-eroded hills are located in the southern border area of Yan Kingdom. The area is very large. There are ten ancient cities scattered in different areas, with Kuangsha City where the fifth prince lived as the most.Apart from Kuangsha City, the most famous and powerful ancient cities are Golden Flame City and Cold Moon City.The owners inside are the Jinyan Tower and Hanyue Academy in the top imperial courtyard.
If the fifth prince wants to gain a foothold in the wind-eroded hills, he must first establish a good relationship with these two factions.Fortunately for Hanyue Academy, they have always maintained neutrality. If you don’t mess with him, he won’t mess with you. The Golden Flame Building...is closer to the Holy Land of Heavenly Demons.
The fifth prince and the sixth princess wanted to renovate Jinyan Tower, but they were newcomers and their foundation was not stable. Besides Jinyan Tower and Hanyue Academy, other ancient cities had always had overlords.
The wind-eroded hills are a well-known chaotic place in the country of Yan, and no one has been willing to take over here.It seems that the emperor of the empire was very dissatisfied with the fifth prince. He gave him a title without giving anything, and just threw it here. "
Tang Yan's eyes turned, but he didn't agree with Mengwei's introduction. These mercenaries were basically hearsay, so they just listened to it.After a little calculation in my mind, I picked up some important points, and gradually outlined an intention. The fifth prince and the sixth princess are known to be wise, and it is very likely that it is a clever plan adopted by the emperor.Sending them to the wind-eroded hills can not only ease the anger of Prince Jing's residence, but also use their plans to rectify the wind-eroded hills.
"This town of Fengdu is very lively all year round?"
"It's basically like this. This is the only foothold in a radius of more than ten kilometers."
"What are you gathering here for?"
"There are four kinds of special monsters in the south of the wind-eroded hills, the desert coyote, the sand lake monkey, the golden mouse, and the wild porcupine. Skin, which sells well beyond the hills."
While talking, there were bursts of neighing from the yellow sand area in the distance, and the dense and dull sound of horseshoes wanted to overwhelm the howling wind.
"Step aside!!"
"Hanyue Academy is here, get out of the way!!"
The crowd of mercenaries who were looking around were awakened by two loud roars, the noisy village was a little quieter, and the mercenaries were all sitting in front of the stalls, with no surprised expressions other than looking around, as if they had long been used to it.
"Hmph! How arrogant!" Mengwei spat, his face full of disdain.
"Is Hanyue Academy unpopular?" Tang Yan asked casually.
"Winning people's hearts? What do you mean by winning people's hearts? The big factions in the big courtyard are all high-ranking and regard the poor as ants, and they don't care about our life or death. Hanyue Academy and Jinyan Tower go hunting in the south at least four or five times a year. The beasts are in a mess. Once they come, our harvest will be reduced by at least [-]%. Yay, bah, I get annoyed when I think about it."
Rumble! !The dull sound of horseshoes approached quickly, and more than thirty Galefeng horses rushed from the yellow sand area, and did not stop until they approached the village.
The twenty or so riders around were all middle-aged guards, all carrying some prey on their backs.The dozen or so men and women inside were young and unrestrained, and they should be students of the academy.
"Haha... Capture the five wolf kings alive, and now you can compare to that girl Jia Jin. Let's go to the village to provoke Sister Jia." The leading young man sneered arrogantly, his head was raised slightly, and he didn't even look at it. Look around at the mercenaries.
"Jia Jin?" Tang Yan sensitively captured the familiar words: "Brother Meng, the Jia Jin mentioned by the boy just now is the descendant of Hanyue Academy?"
"He is the most outstanding descendant of Hanyue Academy in the contemporary era, the peak of King Wu. Because two of the top ten geniuses of Yan Kingdom were slaughtered by Tang Yan, he barely managed to enter Fengdu Village, which he just arrived half a month ago. There is also the last one of Jinyan Tower. You Chuan also came, called Miffy. Back then, Miffy couldn't participate in the Black Stone Ridge because of retreat, otherwise... I'm afraid she would have died in Tang Yan's hands. She is currently at the peak of Wuwang, one step away from Wuzun Yao, the strength is on par with Jia Jin."
