Chapter 74 Xia Qingshuang
When the city defense army was cleaning up the demon corpses outside the city, Song Yueyao also reported the situation in the Black Wind Mountains to Yue Shuhong.
Yue Shuhong immediately sent spies to check and verify.
When the spies saw the mountain top filled with monster corpses, they were all frightened.
The number of demon corpses here is actually much higher than those piled up outside the city.
Especially the high platform with monster corpses arranged in a square shape, which was full of big monsters. A rough count showed that there were more than twenty monsters in total.
The spies also saw the powerful true god bear demon that had long been famous outside the city, but at this moment, the other party also turned into a group of slightly rotten and stinky corpses, piled under the meat table.
The spy's legs were trembling and he hurried back to the city to report the news to Yue Shuhong.
After Yue Shuhong listened, he stood blankly for a long time and then let out a long breath.
He has been in charge of Cangyu City for decades, so he naturally knows that all the big monsters lurking around Cangyu City should have been killed by Li Hao!
If Tan Gong Academy hadn’t happened to assign the task this time, and it happened to be picked up by Li Hao... Yue Shuhong simply couldn’t imagine what kind of hell Cangyu City would have turned into at this moment.
He was both excited and sad. A big stone that had accumulated in his heart for decades finally fell away at this moment.
Two days later.
The demon corpses outside Cangyu City have been basically cleaned up, and Li Hao and others' school mission has been declared over.
The arrival was in a hurry, but the return journey was quite leisurely. Yue Shuhong equipped a carriage for several people.
He personally sent everyone to the city gate to say goodbye.
"Sir, I have reported the matter in Cangyu City to the state capital."
"In addition, once everything is settled here and everything is properly handled, I will personally go to the Imperial Capital and request the death penalty."
Outside the carriage, Yue Shuhong cupped his hands solemnly.
Li Hao glanced at him and immediately understood that he was going to take all the blame on his own.
"Do you know that if all such guilt is placed on you, the nine tribes will be implicated." Li Hao said.
Yue Shuhong's face was calm and he said calmly: "I know, so I have already severed ties with the nine tribes. I cut them off twelve years ago. According to the law of Dayu, if the ties are cut off for more than ten years, I will be treated as such." There is no correspondence, there is no connection, and the crime is not implicated!”
Li Hao stared at him and said, "It seems that you are also a good player at chess."
"Young master, you're welcome."
Li Hao said nothing more, retracted his palm and lowered the car curtain:
"It's a pity that you can't taste the wine brewed by the tiger's head."
Yue Shuhong's body trembled slightly. He was silent for a moment, then raised his head, with a smile on his face: "If you don't mind it, Master, when you pass by Cangyu City in the future, sprinkle a cup on this road, and you'll be fine." It’s time to drink with me.”
The breeze stirred the curtains, undulating slightly.
A word came from inside:
"Can."
The smile on Yue Shuhong's face became even brighter.
The vehicle drove slowly, under the whip of the groom, in the rising sun, along the official road extending with green cypress trees.
The city, and the people at its gates, gradually became smaller and smaller.
But you could vaguely see the man shaking his arms toward the car, as if saying goodbye, and then bowed deeply and long.
Until we can no longer look at each other.
…
…
In the carriage, there were only Li Hao, Ren Qianqian, Li Yuanzhao and others.
The driver was a soldier from Cangyu City. After sending Li Hao and others to Qingzhou, he had to drive the carriage back to Cangyu City.
Wei Feng said goodbye to a few people in a hurry yesterday. With Li Hao here, he no longer had to protect his young lady in secret.
Compared with the safety of the young lady, he is now more worried that the young lady will really agree to be Li Hao's follower.
Although Li Hao has a distinguished status, Ren Qianqian is also the daughter of a master. As a follower, this background will be engraved on her for a lifetime.
He had to go back quickly to ask for reinforcements. Only the master could persuade the young lady.
As for Li Fu, his injury was not healed, so he stayed in Cangyu City to recuperate. At this time, less than half a day after leaving Cangyu City, on the official road, two fast horses suddenly drove up in front of Li Hao and others.
The people on the fast horse seemed to recognize the Cangyu City flag on the carriage. After passing the carriage for tens of meters, they suddenly reined in the horse's rope, turned around and returned to the carriage, stopping several people.
"stop!"
Immediately behind were a man and a woman. The man was about twenty, wearing a purple battle armor, a sword on his waist, and a flying feather hat on his head. He looked heroic.
The woman was wearing a soft purple armor with a bow on her back and a sword on her waist. She had no helmet and only a piece of black hair fluttering behind her along with the armor's cape.
"Are you a soldier from Cangyu City?"
After forcing the carriage to stop, the young man immediately grasped the riding whip and pointed at the coachman with a hint of anger.
The coachman was stunned. After he recognized the armor of the two men, he was so frightened that he stood up and knelt down in a hurry: "Yue Ming, the corps commander of the Cangyu City Defense Department, has met these two adults."
"Why are you here? Who is in the carriage?"
The young man shouted angrily: "I heard that there are monsters attacking Cangyu City. Are you deserters who abandoned the city?!"
Speaking of this, a murderous look was revealed in his eyes.
The coachman Yue Ming hurriedly said: "You two adults have misunderstood. The demon trouble in the city has subsided. I am sending these Tan Palace students back to Qingzhou according to the instructions of the city guard."
"Student of Tan Palace?"
When the two heard this, their eyes moved slightly. The young man's face softened slightly and said: "Call them out and let me take a look."
Tan Gong Academy in Qingzhou is famous all over the world, and they are aware of it. However, for them, there is no need to go to Tan Gong to practice.
Li Hao and others in the carriage also heard the noise outside. Yu Wei sat at the door of the carriage and immediately raised the curtain and looked outside, wondering where this guy could be, so short-sighted?
It was okay to stop him, but there were two people named Li, Li Hao and Li Yuanzhao, in the carriage.
"It's the Xia family's military armor."
Li Yuanzhao peered through the car curtains and immediately recognized their identities.
They were both from the Divine General's Mansion. Although Li Yuanzhao had not traveled far, he had learned a lot about the common sense of these top nobles.
The two people on the horse immediately knew that the coachman was not lying when they saw the young faces of Li Hao and others and the Tan Palace uniforms they were wearing.
"Let me ask you, what did you mean when you just said that the evil trouble was solved?" The heroic woman looked at the coachman coldly.
The coachman said nervously: "Reporting to your lord, the monsters caused chaos, but fortunately, the young master of the Li family took action and put down the chaos."
"Young master of the Li family?"
The young man frowned and said, "Which young master of the Li family?"
"It's the Li family of Qingzhou Divine General's Mansion." The coachman said respectfully.
"Um?"
Xia Yong and Xia Qingshuang looked at each other, it was them?
Wait, Master?
It should be the third generation of the Li family to be called so.
After all, the second generation of the Li family are already middle-aged, and there are only three left, all of whom are world-famous.
I just heard that during this demon disaster, there was a great demon from the Fifteen Miles Realm sitting in charge, with tens of thousands of demons. Such a momentum required at least two of the Xia Family's geniuses from the Fifteen Miles Realm to suppress it.
But the three generations of the Li family have not heard of any famous figures.
More than ten years ago, there were a few people who made small waves in the world.
One became a disciple of the Buddha Master of Wuliang Mountain at the age of six, and the other studied under the Taoist Master of Qianji Mountain, both of whom were direct disciples.
I heard that there was another person who was born with great blessings and was given a name by Emperor Yu himself. Therefore, everyone concluded that his talent was extremely high. However, there was no news later, and there was also news that he was a waste of cultivation, but the exact truth is unknown. And know it.
"Could it be that the one from Wuliang Mountain has entered the world?"
The two of them looked at each other. It was obvious that someone who could be called a young master could not be the girl from the Li family who made it to the ranking list a year ago.
"The third generation of the Li family from Wuliang Mountain should be eighteen this year. Is he in the fifteen-mile realm at the age of eighteen..." Xia Yong narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of fighting intent.
Next to him, Xia Qingshuang looked calm and said: "In this case, we can rest assured."
She looked at the coachman and said, "Let me ask you, what are the casualties in the city?"
"Reporting to your lord, only more than two hundred soldiers guarding the city were injured, and more than ten people died."
The driver Yue Ming was extremely respectful.
