"Master, Master, let's go activate the demon vein!"

Bai Zhi's words excited Ying Wuji.

In a few months, it would be a year since he started his online courses.

Among the nearly one hundred thousand students, there were no shortage of talented and diligent ones. After all, with such a large base, there would never be a lack of geniuses. At least the thousands of households he had gathered near the demon vein had an average talent that had already surpassed the Zhao clan.

And they were all hardworking.

With countless high-end educational resources.

Plus, there was no shortage of food, and the cultivation environment was quiet.

In this nearly one year, almost everyone had reached the peak that could be achieved without relying on cultivation resources.

As soon as they obtained cultivation resources, they would be able to soar.

It wouldn't take long for them to make significant progress into the eleventh layer of essence, energy, and spirit.

So, Ying Wuji had been coveting this demon vein for a long time.

However, he was more curious about another matter.

"I remember when we talked about this, you were always asleep. How do you know so much?"

"Of course, it's because I care about the Master!"

Bai Zhi's pretty face was excited, as if she was seeking credit: "My perception has always been sharp. Not to mention hearing this, I can even sense clearly the positions between Master, Sister Hua Chao, and Sister Zhao Ning. Did I perform well just now?"

Ying Wuji's face stiffened: "Why do you know all these messy things?"

Although such matters could sometimes be exciting.

But that was when he brought it up himself.

After all, when there were no outsiders, he would say some embarrassing things.

And this girl had heard it all.

Bai Zhi looked as if it was only natural: "Isn't your question silly? I am the Master's personal maid. If I don't know about the Master's affairs, then can I still be considered close to you?"

Ying Wuji: "..."

That seemed to make some sense.

But this performance was a bit terrifying.

After awakening the body of Emperor Zhuanxu and the bloodline of the Celestial race, he believed that the strength of his spirit had reached an extremely high level.

Even if his father-in-law glanced at him inadvertently, he could faintly sense it.

Yet Bai Zhi had spied on him from head to toe.

And he hadn't noticed at all.

What a terrifying talent was this?

And what kind of infatuated woman was she?

Ying Wuji rubbed Bai Zhi's head: "Promise me, without my permission, don't spy."

Bai Zhi was dissatisfied: "Master's physique is so robust, isn't it meant to be seen?"

Ying Wuji: "..."

For a moment.

His vanity was greatly satisfied.

Forget it!

Let her look!

Bai Zhi whispered urgently: "Master, are we going or not?"

"Let's go!"

Ying Wuji grinned: "Then get off me!"

Bai Zhi helplessly: "But I don't have any clothes. Can I borrow yours, Master?"

Having transformed for so long.

She had always been a white-furred fox, what clothes did she have?

Ying Wuji could only point to the wardrobe: "Go ahead!"

"Okay!"

Bai Zhi crawled out of the quilt and hopped towards the wardrobe.

The end of summer had just passed, and the autumn night was already a bit cool.

...

Plus, having sweated a bit earlier, the breeze made her feel a chill.

She subconsciously shrank her head and rubbed her snowy white skin on her arms with her palms.

Opening the wardrobe.

She quickly found the most flamboyant clothes.

Standing in front of the full-length mirror, she compared again and again, sometimes imagining herself in clothes, sometimes admiring her newly transformed body.

Her fox tail swayed, quite smug.

After a while, she was ready to dress.

But just as she had this thought, she felt her tail being grabbed.

Her legs went weak, and she could hardly stand.

"Master, I can't dress like this."

"Then don't dress for now!"

"When can I then?"

"In an hour!"

"But... I can't stand steadily!"

"Then lean on the mirror!"

"Hehe! I knew Master had wanted to do this long ago."

"..."

...

An hour later.

Ying Wuji, with Bai Zhi who was still heart-wrenching but obviously much more affectionate, left the Prince Consort's residence on their own.

He didn't know whether it was Bai Zhi's racial talent awakening.

Or because of the transformation, her wisdom had greatly increased.

In any case.

Although she still seemed a bit silly.

She was very enticing.

This feeling.

Was very strange.

Ying Wuji shook his head, directly slashed through the air, took Bai Zhi with him, and then soared into the sky, summoning the Huan Guang Sword, and flew towards the northwest.

On the table in his bedroom.

Only a letter lay quietly.

He had planned to leave quietly, leaving behind an external incarnation to deceive others, as after awakening the Celestial race bloodline, he could barely operate on two fronts.

But after thinking about it.

He gave up on the idea.

The matter of the demon vein, and even the subsequent arrangements, he had written in the letter to Zhao Ji.

But Zhao Ji didn't even intend to open it.

Whether it was intentional or not.

Zhao Ji's attitude was already clear: you can have some of your own ideas, and I am willing to give you absolute trust.

Since that was the case.

There was no need to sneak around.

Leaving a letter.

Let Zhao Ji know he was going to do something.

He was also certain that Zhao Ji would not send anyone to check.

This way, both sides would be at ease.

Sometimes, he was also a bit unsure whether, when the truth came out, his father-in-law would have any grudges.

But then again.

He probably would.After all, it is a demonic vein, plus a whole generation of young talents.

Even if he did not make any subversive remarks, it was enough to make a king feel uneasy.

Otherwise, Lao Bidi would not be so confident.

...

Northwest.

The intersection of the Qian and Di kingdoms.

The terrain here is not flat, plus the land is barren, with no water or grass, and unable to grow crops.

In addition, the Qiang and Di kingdoms do not have a strict sense of territory, so this place has always been in a state of neglect.

But no one knows.

There is an exit of a large demonic vein hidden here.

Although the soil seems barren, the spiritual energy that permeates the soil is enough to support crop growth, and even higher yields than so-called fertile land.

....

The only difficulty is the lack of water.

But there have been experts who have hollowed out the mountains, and after a prayer for rain, they can obtain enough water for the entire season.

"Tsk!"

"Really good!"

Just at dawn.

Above the sky, two butterflies are fluttering and flying.

It is Ying Wuji and Bai Zhi, who have transformed into these images through embryonic transformation.

After all, when taking online classes, Ying Wuji mostly appeared in this form.

Ying Wuji looked down at the basin.

Not large.

But hidden enough.

There are not many fertile fields, but the yield is enough to support the existence of thousands of households.

They just moved here at the beginning of spring, just in time for the first season of spring wheat. By the end of July, they had already harvested, and now the granaries in the backyards of every household are full.

It has to be said.

Although Lao Bidi is not great.

But he really cares about this place.

At least the town is set up quite reasonably.

The land reclamation is also quite good.

If he hadn't laid the foundation in advance, he would probably have to spend a lot of effort. Just missing this season of spring wheat would be enough to make him regret it.

Now it seems.

It's going well.

The sunrise in the basin is slightly earlier than in the mountains, but later than on the plains.

After a quarter of an hour.

The morning light finally passed over the surrounding high ground and sprinkled into every corner of the town.

Almost at the same time, the doors of every household opened at the same time.

One by one, young people and teenagers came out of the house, running all the way to the martial arts field in the middle of the town.

After arriving, they quickly formed one formation after another.

The discipline is extremely strict.

Next is the uniform body forging technique.

This is a body forging method compiled by the Martial Ancestor in ancient times.

It's not difficult, but very effective.

Nowadays, various body forging techniques all originate from this.

As a basic training method, they are all quite similar, and the version popularized by the Li royal family among the people.

Although ordinary.

But every punch and kick is quite powerful.

It makes the onlookers nervous.

Ying Wuque sat quietly on the high platform next to the martial arts field, watching nearly a thousand young people in front of him, his face already so gloomy that water could drip out.

Beside him.

There is a row of Qian kingdom generals wearing military uniforms.

Each of them is vigorous and bright-eyed, obviously all experts.

Even two of them have reached the level of a military man, and may even be on the verge of reaching the level of spirit enlightenment.

At this moment, they all look serious.

Because the performance of these young people in front of them is too terrifying.

In just half a year, their basic skills have soared to a terrifying level.

Although they have not broken through the embryonic transformation realm, with their current situation and the willpower they have shown, once the demonic vein is opened, they will definitely grow into the elite of the elite within a year.

And what's even more terrifying is.

The true energy cultivated by each of these people is different.

Although they have not broken through the embryonic transformation realm, the true energy cultivated by each of them is not weak. With a little insight, it is clear that the grade of the true energy they cultivate is not low, and it perfectly matches the physique of each person. Their eyes also reveal a hidden charm, and their spiritual souls must have made considerable progress.

....

Where did these high-level techniques come from?

Or rather.

Where did Ying Wuji get these high-quality goods for them?

Did he empty the libraries of all the nobles in the world?

If they were put back in the Li kingdom...

It would be a nightmare!

"Tsk!"

Ying Wuque spat out the grass in his mouth, looking somewhat ferocious: "General Bai, General Fan, you have been staying in this place for a while. Are you going to let these wolf cubs grow up? I need a perfect explanation!"

The Bai general and Fan general he mentioned are the two Qian kingdom generals by his side.

The former is named Bai Qing, the biological father of Bai Jie, and is also a famous general in the Qian kingdom today.

The other is named Fan Wu, although he has been a general for a long time and has many achievements, his innate foundation is insufficient. When he broke through the embryonic transformation realm, he only had a fifth-grade spiritual embryo.

Later, relying on strong perseverance, he broke through to the level of a military man. Compared to other military man-level generals, he can only be said to be average, and is not as well-known as Bai Qing.

Hearing Ying Wuque's words.

Fan Wu couldn't help but show a bitter smile: "Your Highness, after all, this demonic vein is still in the hands of Young Master Wuji. These people are all Young Master Wuji's people. If we kill them all, with Young Master Wuji's temperament, I'm afraid this demonic vein will never be opened again in the future."

He really felt a little uncomfortable.

When he was secretly summoned by Ying Yue half a year ago, he was extremely excited.

Because his personal cultivation had reached its limit, and his military command was only passable, he had reached the limit of his life.

Suddenly having such an important task, how could he not be excited.

So he led thousands of militiamen, secretly crossed the territory of the Barbarians, and came to this remote place, opening up the town and fields here.Just waiting quietly for the person to activate the demon pulse.

As long as everything goes according to Ying Yue's expectations, and the people of Kingdom Qian are eventually relocated here, then he will be the greatest hero.

But the people of Kingdom Qian did not come, instead a group of refugees from Kingdom Li arrived.

According to Ying Yue's orders, no matter who comes, he must let them rest and recuperate in the fields and farmhouses.

Although he still had merit, he had gone from being an extraordinary figure involved in opening the demon pulse to being a laborer who relied on farming.

Before joining the army, I was a farmer.

After becoming a general, I am still a farmer.

So, am I just wasting my time as a general?

So, during this time, Fan Wu was super depressed.

He was once again questioned by Ying Wuque, and his mood became even more unpleasant.

"Ying Wuji, Ying Wuji!"

Ying Wuque's expression became even more ferocious: "Just a Ying Wuji, I don't know what you all are afraid of. Let me tell you, he needs this demon pulse more than we do. Not to mention killing these lowly people, even if we kill the remaining Bai family members..."

Bai Qing's expression didn't look too good: "Hmm?"

Ying Wuque's face stiffened for a moment, and he changed his tone: "Of course, I don't really want to kill the Bai family members, even though they have committed a serious crime. But out of respect for General Bai, the people of Kingdom Qian will not harm them at all. I'm just saying this to make a point. The so-called Ying Wuji is nothing but a paper tiger. You two don't need to fear him at all!"

Ying Wuji is just a paper tiger!

...

Ying Wuji is just a paper tiger!

Ying Wuji is just a paper tiger!

This is what Ying Wuque would repeatedly say to himself late at night.

The effect of this...

It really worked.

At least now, when he thinks of Ying Wuji, he no longer feels any fear.

He even wants to find an opportunity to compete with him and wipe away his past shame.

Fan Wu tentatively asked, "So, Your Highness means..."

His tone was very respectful.

Because ever since the Li family was destroyed, Ying Yue immediately deposed Bai Yi as the heir and appointed Ying Wuque as the crown prince.

The future of Kingdom Qian belongs to Ying Wuque.

Naturally, he dare not be negligent towards this future King Qian.

Ying Wuque snorted coldly, "What I mean is, get rid of them!"

Fan Wu sighed lightly, "Your Highness! You have just arrived and may not be very clear about the situation here."

"Oh?"

Ying Wuque asked, "What situation?"

Fan Wu said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, have you noticed that each of these people from Kingdom Li wears a yellow bean on their chest?"

When he heard the words "yellow bean," Ying Wuque's expression changed.

When Bai Jie returned, he explained in detail about the destruction of the Li family. And the information from the spies arranged in the Wei and Han families was also clear.

It was very clear that Ying Wuji had already mastered the technique of creating soldiers from beans. Although the number was much smaller than the soldiers created by those who had reached the realm of enlightenment, the individual strength of each bean soldier was not weak at all. And they had mastered the formation of combined attacks, and what was even more outrageous was that they could also cast spells.

Under the combined attack, even those in the realm of soldiers might not fare well.

This was somewhat terrifying.

Ying Wuque sneered, "Are you scared by just a few beans?"

Fan Wu smiled awkwardly and made a gesture of invitation down the stairs from the high platform.

Ying Wuque was somewhat annoyed.

After a moment of silence, he said, "General Bai, please come down with me."

Bai Qing: "..."

He can't beat me.

Do you want to drag me down with you?

He really couldn't stand this prince.

But he was quite intrigued by this proposal.

Because Ying Wuji was too arrogant.

Last time, when Bai Jie visited Kingdom Li, it was his idea to propose this, thinking that this matter was almost certain, and he sent Bai Jie to gain some experience.

After all, it was quite impressive to use Ying Wuji to force the King of Li to spare the Li family.

As long as Bai Jie could accomplish this, he would be the number one among the young generation of Kingdom Qian.

But he never expected that Ying Wuji would be so ruthless, directly joining forces with the Wei and Han families to wipe out the entire Li family, and even killing all ten thousand soldiers from Kingdom Qian that Bai Jie had brought.

If Bai Jie didn't have an escape technique, his most outstanding son probably wouldn't have survived either.

Not only that, he also incited the people of Kingdom Qian to resent the Wei and Han families.

Extinguishing this fire was undoubtedly a thankless and difficult task, and it was all pinned on his son by Ying Yue.

Up to now, it still hasn't been extinguished.

After this matter, Bai Jie's position among the younger generation will probably decline significantly.

Ying Wuji's actions really disregarded the brotherly bond between them!

Since the other party didn't care at all, Bai Qing naturally didn't want to hold back either.

If Ying Wuji could kill ten thousand soldiers from Kingdom Qian...

Can't I get rid of some of his subordinates?

Before leaving, Ying Yue also said that this rebellious son should be disciplined.

This time, he was sent to accompany Ying Wuque, and it should also be to help support Ying Wuque.

He smiled and said, "Your Highness! These bean soldiers are all connected to Prince Wuji's thoughts. Aren't you worried, Your Highness..."

"Worried about what?!"

Ying Wuque's voice was somewhat fierce, "Not to mention these bean soldiers, even if Ying Wuji himself came, I would still kill him without hesitation."

"What are you saying?"

A voice suddenly rang out.

Then, two butterflies landed.

Their wings folded, wrapped around their bodies like a cloak.

The eyes of the insects looked extremely strange, making people shiver involuntarily.

This butterfly.

Was very unfamiliar.

But the voice was very familiar.

Ying Wuque subconsciously shuddered and blurted out, "Even if Ying Wuji came in person, I would make him feel right at home."

Fan Wu: "..."

Bai Qing: "..."

Ying Wuji: "..."He quickly transformed back to his original form.

Bai Zhi also changed back and pulled Ying Wuji's sleeve, asking, "Young Master, has he been possessed? I remember him being quite unruly."

Ying Wuque: "..."

His expression turned extremely ugly.

Ying Yue sent him here this time because the three great monsters who came to search for the demon veins had already been captured, and Ying Wuji could come to open the demon veins at any time.

The best way to overcome fear is to face it.

At first, he was very unwilling and told Ying Yue that it was unnecessary because he had already overcome his fear.

But he didn't expect...

Why can't I control my mouth?

Ying Wuque forced himself to focus and tried to block the memory of Ying Wuji raising his fist and hitting him in the face.

Then he smirked and said, "Naturally, you are a welcome guest. This place was first discovered by our Kingdom Qian, and the land was cultivated by us. Don't you consider yourself a guest, Wuji?"

Bai Qing: "..."

Impressive! You managed to smooth things over.

Ying Wuji sneered, "By your logic, your mother was discovered by Iron Bull and cultivated by Iron Bull. Doesn't that make Iron Bull your father?"

"You, you're talking nonsense!"

Ying Wuque was hit where it hurt, his neck was already turning red.

If he could beat Ying Wuji, he would have probably drawn his sword and attacked him long ago.

Bai Qing shook his head inwardly. He couldn't understand what had happened at the Immortal Sword Conference to leave such a deep shadow on Ying Wuque.

He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice, "Wuji, since you're here..."

Ying Wuji interrupted directly, "Where did you come from, old man? The one standing in front of you now is the husband of the Great Li, the sacrificial official of the Great Li Academy, the invincible commander who slaughtered ten thousand soldiers of Kingdom Qian, the good father of more than twenty martial arts experts, the current head of the Bai family of the Celestial Clan. Who gave you the courage to call me by my name?"

Bai Qing: "???"

His expression turned ugly, "The official position of Kingdom Li does not have jurisdiction over the generals of our Kingdom Qian. Even if you are the head of the Bai family, I am still your uncle!"

...

Ying Wuji grinned. Bai Qing looked six points similar to Bai Jie, and he recognized him at a glance.

He sneered, "Oh? When did our Bai family have such a rebellious son? I've seen the family tree of the Bai family, and your name is not on it!"

Bai Qing frowned, "Nonsense! I'm right next to your mother."

Ying Wuji cut in, "Nonsense! I personally deleted it. How could I forget?"

Bai Qing: "???"

He felt almost suffocated.

Although he knew that from the perspective of the Bai family, they all believed that he had betrayed the family, he also knew that there was no way to explain it.

But deleting from the family tree...

He had grown up in the Bai family, and the sense of family was still strong.

Even if he was deleted by the elder, it was not a problem.

Why should this junior?

Ying Wuji clicked his tongue, "Tsk tsk! You father and son are exactly the same. After this negotiation, I suggest you quickly request a memorial archway from Lao Bidi. From father to son, from generation to generation.

Selling your own children and raising them, you still have the nerve to be aggrieved when it comes to selling uncles and brothers?"

Bai Qing looked at Ying Wuji with a dark expression but didn't say anything.

Ying Wuji couldn't be bothered to deal with him and said directly, "The demon veins will open soon. Bring your people. If you're late, you'll be considered to have given up voluntarily."

He pulled Bai Zhi and transformed back into a butterfly, then flew down directly.

Swooping past the martial arts field, he leisurely flew towards a distant cave.

At this moment, the young people in the martial arts field had already finished their training. When they saw such a magnificent butterfly, they were all overjoyed.

They had seen the butterfly just now and were convinced that it was their master in their dreams.

To access the premium content, go to [ pawread.com ].

They had wanted to greet him earlier, but interrupting their training would surely lead to a scolding from their master.

Now they had the chance.

They all jumped up to greet the butterfly.

"Master!"

"Master, please accept our respect!"

"Good master, take your time flying."

"Be careful of the man-eating demons in the mountains."

Ying Wuji: "..."

They're even singing?

Although he also wanted to interact with these disciples, there were more important matters at hand.

So he left a sentence, "Train three more times," and flew directly to the cave.

Bai Zhi had already smelled it.

That was the place where the demon veins could be mined.

The two of them flew very fast.

In just a moment, they flew into the cave.

They landed and transformed back into their original forms.

Bai Qing and the others also arrived one after another, as long as they were at the martial arts level, they could fly with their weapons. Some of them at the high level of the martial arts realm or with high-grade spirit embryos could also do so.

After landing, Bai Qing looked at the cave and nodded slightly.

He had also heard about the demon veins from Ying Yue.

Before this, he didn't know what the ultimate trump card of the Bai family was.

A demon vein that could rival the first great spiritual vein.

It was truly rich.

But the richer it was, the more foolish the Bai family seemed to him. The innocent were guilty of harboring stolen goods, and what was even more sinful was that they had a family concept that contradicted the royal power.

This set of principles might have been able to support a tribe's rise in ancient times.

...

But in the present day, it was simply seeking death.

Even if everything was calculated, the demon veins still ended up being divided by Kingdom Qian.

His nephew was also foolish!

He actually naively believed that he could keep the demon veins.

But this was also not a problem.

The foolishness of the Bai family had put Ying Wuji in a dilemma.

He was living a glamorous life now.Once Kingdom Qian turns its face, this demonic vein will...

After Zhao Ji learns of it, he will ensure that person dies without a burial place.

Bai Qing pointed to the formation on the cave floor: "That is the demonic vein left by our Bai family, you..."

"Let me correct you!"

Ying Wuji waved his hand to interrupt: "It's my Bai family, it has nothing to do with you!"

Bai Qing's eye twitched: "Then it is the demonic vein left by your Bai family. The formation on the ground draws energy from the demonic vein and in turn suppresses the entire vein. It requires the blood of the demonic royal family to unlock it. The first demonic king's bloodline to merge will be the key to opening the vein in the future."

Ying Wuji ruffled Bai Zhi's head, who understood and hopped over.

Afterward.

He turned to look at Bai Qing: "Shall we proceed as previously agreed? According to the annual yield, the town's residents control fifty percent, and additionally, every year we provide Kingdom Qian with resources for five hundred people below the Embryo Shedding Realm, five hundred people of the Embryo Shedding Realm, and twenty people of the Soldier Realm."

"Whoosh!"

Twenty figures appeared simultaneously.

All were prison mates.

After annihilating ten thousand soldiers of Kingdom Qian, he had been on guard for Kingdom Qian's betrayal, directly dispatching experts to secretly protect the place.

Except for a batch that was temporarily lent to Eunuch Cao.

The rest, inseparable.

Those who were borrowed also immediately returned.

Twenty Soldier Realm experts, their true energy surged, their killing intent not the least bit concealed.

The people of Qian instantly broke out in cold sweat.

Even Bai Qing, a fierce general of Kingdom Qian, had an extremely stiff expression.

Ying Wuji smiled as he looked at them: "Additionally, I want to add one condition. Your share, I will have someone deliver it punctually on the first of every month. I will set up a formation here, and no one from Qian is allowed to enter. Those who enter without permission will be killed without mercy!"

Bai Qing's face looked somewhat ugly: "The terms you discussed with His Majesty before did not include this condition!"

Ying Wuji sneered: "Now they do!"

Having said that.

He directly took out brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

He wrote two copies of a contract according to what he had just said.

After signing his own name, he pushed them towards Bai Qing.

"Of course, General Bai can choose not to sign!"

As soon as his voice fell.

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

"Clang!"

Over twenty Soldier Realm weapons, all unsheathed.

Bai Qing: "..."

Fan Wu: "..."

Ying Wuque: "..."

I want to drink spicy soup.
