Chapter 197: Hundred Times Confidence

  

After the seeds of Blood Vine were planted, the range was not big at first, but it gradually expanded. Then, the vines that spread out from the small seeds broke out of the ground and became plants with eyes. They could see everything that happened there.

Li Yuanqing slowly retracted his gaze. Although Sea City looked calm on the surface recently, there were already turbulent undercurrents in the mainland.

Hai Changping’s current situation was not as good as before. It could be said that as long as those rebels gathered their forces, he would not have a good life.

...

However, what Li Yuanqing was most curious about was what the demons had been saying about the seven lords.

It was said that these seven lords were famous in the wilderness. They were the capable subordinates of the Black Dragon and had a very close relationship with it. Although they did not occupy such a huge city, their strength was still very top-notch. These people often carried a race behind them. A race was the entire territory.

In comparison, the three major cities and these places were where countless demons gathered together to form such a huge power.

One of the reasons why a Lord of a single race like them could occupy such a huge territory was because of their great strength.

According to the Blood Vine, these seven lords were all experts who had stepped into the Formation Arrangement realm. They were not like Tarzan and Long Tianzun. Those two only had an undeserved reputation. Although they were also known as the two lords, their strength was far inferior to the true big shots at the top.

When Li Yuanqing heard this news, he could not help but feel excited.

During this period of time, most of the nearby demons had been destroyed. Most of them were no longer a threat. Li Yuanqing had also benefited greatly from it. To him, the various entanglements these days were a very good way to profit.

It would be a good deal since these fellows were here.

If those great lords knew that they had already been treated as fish on the chopping board in Li Yuanqing’s eyes, what would they think?

“Master, these guys are all famous figures. There’s no need for us to make things difficult for them, right? At most, we’ll find a place to hide for a period of time. This wilderness is so big that we can find a place to stay. Why do we have to be serious with those people?”

After the Blood Vine reported all the information gathered nearby to Li Yuanqing, he was still very worried. He persuaded Li Yuanqing to leave Ping City quickly because according to the information he received, four Great Lords were already heading towards Ping City.

What kind of forces were the four Great Lords? The four of them could destroy everyone in Ping City with a single move. How could the two of them fight against such existences?

Li Yuanqing indeed had some ability. The Blood Vine secretly estimated that Li Yuanqing should be equivalent to a lord.

However, even if he could reach the strength of a lord, they were four lords who were not involved in anything. As long as these people arrived, they would definitely not give him any face.

At that time, these people would say that they were here to look for the Sword Immortal and casually rob Ping City. Wouldn’t those famous figures in Ping City suffer?

Li Yuanqing did not care about this. Could it be that he found it very interesting? He kept asking about the few Great Lords.

Among the seven Great Lords, four of them were coming towards Ping City. They were Xiong Batian of the Bear Clan, Lang Duankong of the Heavenly Wolf Clan, Da Mingkong of the Giant Elephant Clan, and Shi Fengchun of the Red Lion Clan.

These four were all ruthless people. The demons were filled with admiration for them.

The Blood Vine had already mentioned these things to Li Yuanqing countless times. However, Li Yuanqing had made up his mind and refused to leave no matter what.

“Master, you can’t do this. I’m still counting on you to bring me to those places and unify the world when the time comes. However, if we fail here, we won’t be able to make a comeback.”

The more the Blood Vine thought about it, the more uncomfortable he felt. He kept trying to persuade him. Every time, Li Yuanqing would say that he knew his limits and brush it off, as if he did not intend to discuss this with him at all.

The Blood Vine could only sulk. Now that he had already stepped onto the pirate ship, what else could he do? In the beginning, he did not know that Li Yuanqing was such a person. He was so silly for no reason. He would rather die than choose a path of survival.

The Blood Vine could not help but start thinking about the inner demon seed. He couldn’t possibly die with Li Yuanqing if he dies. There was still a chance now. He had to take advantage of this period of time to quickly find a way to undo this inner demon curse seal. If anything went wrong, he could escape first.

The moment Li Yuanqing was not paying attention, the Blood Vine secretly tried to break through the seal of the inner demon. Li Yuanqing could not be bothered with it.

With Li Yuanqing’s current strength, it was easy for him to control the small Blood Vine. Even if the Blood Vine risked his life, it was impossible for him to remove the inner demon seed. In any case, this fellow was still useful to him now and he had to keep him by his side.

The Man-eating Vine had been helping Hu Jiujiu study the city defense array for the past few days. Initially, it had encountered a little trouble, but after Li Yuanqing’s reminder, the Man-eating Vine was greatly inspired.

During this period of time, she had been working hard to perfectly combine the two array formations. As long as she gathered these two array formations, it would be able to block an expert in the Formation Arrangement realm outside for a while, unlike before, where it could only block a few super strong attacks.

The Man-eating Vine returned to the underground cave. After Hu Jiujiu took over this vast underground city, a large number of people came in to repair the facilities inside. It had been built like a small city defense fortress.

Not only were there many lighting equipment set up everywhere, but there were also many soldiers guarding it. The originally empty place was now surrounded by walls, separating large areas of space.

The wall outside was as complicated as a maze. If someone came in for the first time, they would probably get lost here and would not be able to find their way out.

There was a huge original array formation in the center. This was the core area of the entire array formation. This was a large empty space specially left for the Man-eating Vine.

Hu Jiujiu had built a huge vault in the underground world and accumulated all the savings of the entire City Lord Manor here. The security level here was very high, enough to protect this huge wealth.

The little girl transformed from the Man-eating Vine walked back and forth on the array formation in the center. From time to time, she would carve some patterns along the patterns. These new patterns looked very strange, but they were somewhat compatible with the original patterns.

She was very busy, and had been for an entire day. Li Yuanqing stood beside Hu Jiujiu at the periphery of the array formation.

Now, most of the things in Ping City have been settled down. Most of them were stable. The entire Ping City was developing steadily at a very harmonious frequency. There was no need for Hu Jiujiu to make many decisions.

Therefore, Hu Jiujiu had time to pay attention to the construction progress of the Man-eating Vine today.

“Master.”

“How’s the shrinking of the front?”

“According to your instructions, the entire periphery of Ping City should be able to shrink back as much as possible. During this period of time, we happened to encounter a period of rapid development. However, after the regulations were passed, everyone is still very obedient and there are not many troubles.”

“Those people probably won’t attack immediately after they come. However, they are all ferocious figures and can’t be underestimated. It’s best if we can ensure everyone’s safety.”

Hu Jiujiu smiled and replied, “Master, don’t worry. Little Jiu has already arranged it according to your instructions. Everyone is also very active in moving into the inner city. After she finishes setting up the array formation, I believe Ping City will be impregnable. Even if these people come here, they won’t be able to cause any trouble.”

After the Man-eating Vine finished setting up this array, coupled with the array formation left behind in the past, it could indeed play a certain role.

However, Li Yuanqing still said to Hu Jiujiu sternly, “As the City Lord, you shouldn’t show any optimism. If the people below feel that it’s just not that serious, I’m afraid there will be trouble.”

Hu Jiujiu stuck out her tongue and looked at Li Yuanqing mischievously. “Master, don’t worry. I’ve made it clear to Minglun. Everyone in Ping City is very cautious and united. There hasn’t been a large-scale escape so far. I think everyone is very confident that they can survive this crisis.”

Most of the information about these people came from the legendary Sword Immortal. Everyone in Ping City believed that as long as they were in trouble, the Sword Immortal would definitely come out to save them.

Although the legendary Lord was powerful and sounded like an immortal, he was not the first Lord to fall at the hands of a Sword Immortal. What was the use of four more? Therefore, there was no large-scale panic now. Everyone only listened to Hu Jiujiu’s instructions and became more cautious, but they still lived like before.

As the two of them were talking, the Man-eating Vine standing in the middle of the array suddenly jumped up happily.

“Success!” The Man-eating Vine skipped to the center and took out a huge medium-grade spirit stone. She pressed it into the groove in the middle.

The spirit stone lit up slightly. Immediately after, spiritual energy constantly emitted from it and seeped into the entire array.

A medium-grade spirit stone could only temporarily activate the array formation as a test array formation. After it lit up slightly, its aura suddenly became majestic. However, almost in an instant, its entire aura withered.

Along with the aura of the array formation was the Man-eating Vine.

The Man-eating Vine looked at the array formation in confusion. She felt that she had done enough just now. Why was this happening?

“That’s not right. It’s all according to the book. There shouldn’t be a problem. But why didn’t it succeed?”

The Man-eating Vine sat on the array formation gloomily, not knowing what went wrong.

“The attributes of these two arrays are different. Although the method of forcefully drawing them together can smooth the energy flow between them, the overall effect will still clash with each other.”

Just as the Man-eating Vine was feeling depressed, Li Yuanqing suddenly pointed it out.

The Man-eating Vine was so engrossed in the array formation that she did not notice when Li Yuanqing arrived.

“Master, what should we do now? I’ve been busy here for a day or two. I’m exhausted. I’ll probably vomit blood if I do it again.”

Li Yuanqing landed on the ground and looked at the array formation again. He checked it carefully and instructed the Man-eating Vine beside him.

“You only simply combined their connections, but the overall compatibility of the array formation is still not enough. If you want to unleash its full strength, you still have to draw the city defense array formation again in the same language as this ancient array formation.”

The Man-eating Vine sat on the ground with an aggrieved expression and looked at Li Yuanqing.

“Master, are you serious? It’s fine if I redraw it, but I still have to do it in the same language as this ancient array formation? Wouldn’t that take forever? It’s really too difficult.”

Hu Jiujiu gently patted the little head of the Man-eating Vine. “Sister, don’t complain anymore. Hurry up and do it. Now is a very dangerous time and we need your array formation as cover. If you find this troublesome, how can you endure the many hardships on the path of cultivation?”

“But Sister, you don’t know how it feels to lie on this array formation for a day or two.” The man-eating vine looked very aggrieved. The past two days had been for nothing.

Hu Jiujiu took out a dark black root. This thing looked very black and bright. Just by placing it here, it emitted a very rich fragrance. This fragrance smelled fine to Li Yuanqing, but for plant-type demons like the Man-eating Vine, it was like they had found the most beautiful food in the world.

When the Man-eating Vine smelled this smell, her eyes almost popped out as she stared fixedly at the black root. She could not walk anymore.

The Man-eating Vine, who was panting from exhaustion just now, immediately did not feel tired after seeing this thing. She instantly perked up and kept licking her lips, drooling.

“Ah, where did you get this thousand-year-old black vine from?”

“Do you want it?”
