Gao Zhengyang and Yan Yu stared at each other for a while. Yan Yu could not stand the endless depth in Gao Zhengyang's eyes and felt a little guilty. She took the initiative to avoid eye contact.
She then explained: "This request is too presumptuous. However, the situation is really urgent. I hope Brother Gao will not take offense."
Gao Zhengyang said blandly: "Why don't Young Master Yan tell me. If I can do it, I will not hesitate to help."
Yan Yu was a little disappointed. She did not think that Gao Zhengyang would be so calm at such a young age. His words were well-rehearsed and watertight. No wonder he could stay in his room for more than ten days.
Yan Yu's expression did not change. "It's like this. A river demon came to Drinking Bull River. It seems to be a large toad. It has already killed tens of people. Now no one dares to draw water from Drinking Bull River anymore … "
Drinking Bull City was a very small city. There were only about ten thousand people. These people mainly farmed the land nearby. Drinking Bull River was the most important water source for irrigation.
Suddenly a river demon appeared and occupied the water source. Not only was the drinking water of the people affected, but the irrigation of the crops was also affected. It was May. It was the fastest growing season for crops.
If there was any more delay, the tens of thousands of mu of farmland nearby would be greatly affected.
Drinking Bull City was a small city that belonged to the Yan Clan. Yan Yu was the city lord of Drinking Bull City in name. She naturally had to stand up for such a big thing.
The Yan Clan was very powerful. They had all kinds of elders and consecrators. There were even ninth level ones. However, Yan Yu could not mobilize these people.
If Yan Yu used too much of the clan's power to solve the problem, it would only prove that she did not have the ability. Therefore, Yan Yu had to find a way to prove herself. Only then would she be able to gain a foothold in the clan and secure her position as the city lord.
Although it was only in name, she could keep thirty percent of the taxes collected from Drinking Bull City. This was a very large amount of income.
To Yan Yu, whether it was training, making friends, eating and playing, they all required large amounts of money. The taxes collected from Drinking Bull City already took up more than half of her income.
No matter what, Yan Yu could not give up on this income. Therefore, if a big problem arose, she had to solve it herself.
Of course, Yan Yu did not want to completely rely on Gao Zhengyang. In reality, she had invited a seventh level cultivator to help. That was why he wanted to bring Gao Zhengyang along. He wanted to see how capable he was.
If Gao Zhengyang rejected the invitation, it would mean that he had rejected her goodwill. Yan Yu would not be polite to people like this.
Yan Yu had all sorts of information. If he wanted to deal with anyone, he did not have to do it himself. As long as the arrangements were a little more ingenious, they would be able to kill someone without leaving any traces.
If Gao Zhengyang accepted the invitation, then it would mean that she could be. Yan Yu did not expect Gao Zhengyang to be so Zhengyang was much stronger than she thought.
What Yan Yu didn't expect was that Gao Zhengyang was much stronger than she thought. Sitting in front of Gao Zhengyang, she actually felt a little uneasy.
He even began to suspect that forcing this person to make a choice was a little unwise!
"Tian Yan" Yan "Gao" with her "Yan" and "can." Yan "Yang." Gao "Yan" In a place like Yan City, it was useful to have a powerful friend.
He pondered for a moment and said, "Since it's the river demon that's causing harm, I'm willing to do what I can."
Yan Yu was happy. "Brother Gao, I thank you on behalf of everyone in Yinniu City."
Yan Yu said, "Let's not waste time. Let's leave in the afternoon. We can reach Yinniu City tomorrow morning. "
"Of course, the earlier we settle this, the better."
Gao Zhengyang nodded. Since he had agreed, it did not matter when they left. However, since Yan Yu was in such a hurry, it seemed like it was really urgent.
Yan Yu acted as the host and treated Gao Zhengyang to a famous local restaurant for a sumptuous meal. There were all kinds of delicacies from the land and sea. It was extremely sumptuous.
More importantly, the chefs in Yan City had been around for hundreds of years. Their culinary skills were quite good. The food they made was pure and rich, far better than places like Tong City and Salt Water City.
Even the chef on Jiaojiao's ship could not compare.
After the meal, Yan Yu's coachman arrived. This four-wheeled carriage was very big and luxuriously decorated. It looked shiny. It was pulled by four tall horses, looking extremely imposing.
Behind the carriage was a group of about twenty to thirty riders. They all brought their luggage with them and looked very capable and experienced.
Yan Yu was very polite to Gao Zhengyang and invited him and Bai Ling into the carriage.
After all, they were invited VIPs. Yan Yu was willing to spend money to win them over. Even if they were not very powerful, she would not lose out.
The carriage moved very smoothly. People sitting inside almost didn't feel any bumps.
This made Bai Ling click her tongue in wonder. Even a similar carriage would be very bumpy.
Yan Yu explained proudly, "This carriage is made from the bones of a demon beast and is enchanted with all kinds of runes. The carriage is very light. When necessary, it can even float for a short period of time. As long as the horse can go, the carriage can go … "
Using magic on daily necessities was something only a wealthy family could do. Living in ordinary places was hard. Who would have time to study such things? Moreover, they were not willing to waste precious magic artifacts in this area.
To Yan Yu's disappointment, she did not see any surprise or envy on Gao Zhengyang's face. It was as if everything was natural.
Yan Yu's opinion of Gao Zhengyang rose even higher. Regardless of whether he was a schemer or knowledgeable person, he was still very powerful.
Bai Ling was very excited. She looked at the endless wheat fields on both sides and felt very comfortable. Especially when the horse was galloping, the wind that blew against her face was refreshing and cool.
Compared to flying on Gao Zhengyang's back, this speed was much slower. However, it was much more comfortable. Bai Ling was so happy that she almost wanted to sing.
In fact, Bai Ling's excitement did not last long. There were wheat fields on both sides. No matter how far they ran, there was no change. In comparison, it was not as interesting as taking a boat.
When the sky turned dark, Bai Ling naturally felt sleepy and slowly fell asleep in the carriage.
Seeing that Bai Ling was sleepy so quickly, Yan Yu was also a little amused. "Brother Gao, this little boy is naive and cute."
Gao Zhengyang closed the window and covered Bai Ling with a blanket. "The descendant of an old friend, follow me to cultivate."
Yan Yu originally saw Bai Ling's beauty and wanted to test her relationship with Gao Zhengyang. However, seeing that Gao Zhengyang was so open and natural, the two should not have an affair.
"Brother Gao, why don't you take a good rest? These horses can see in the dark and don't need to rest at night. "
Yan Yu said with concern, "You should rest first. You still need to rely on Brother Gao's strength tomorrow."
"Okay."
Gao Zhengyang closed his eyes and ignored Yan Yu.
Yan Yu had been observing Gao Zhengyang in the dark. She was really curious about this man.
No matter what, Gao Zhengyang always looked calm and generous. The key was that he was not pretending. Everything was very natural.
Sometimes, Yan Yu felt that her little tricks were seen through by the other party, and she would feel a kind of uneasiness in her heart.
She did not know if the other party would do anything tonight.
Yan Yu glanced at her unintentionally exposed calves and then looked at Gao Zhengyang. The other party sat there with a deep and long breath. If one did not listen carefully, they would almost think that he was not panting.
Gao Zhengyang sat there with his back naturally straight, but the muscles all over his body were very relaxed. Just looking at the way he sat, there was a kind of calming feeling.
As Yan Yu watched, her heart became clearer and clearer. She did not know how, but she fell into a deep sleep.
When she opened her eyes again, she found that it was already bright outside the carriage window. She actually slept for an entire night. Moreover, she slept very deeply.
Yan Yu was shocked when she woke up. How could she sleep so deeply in front of a stranger? She even lost the most basic vigilance.
If Gao Zhengyang wanted to do anything, she was afraid that she would be finished.
Yan Yu was very puzzled. With her cultivation, she would not be obviously sleepy if she did not sleep for three days and three nights. It was even more impossible for her to fall asleep because she could not hold on.
She originally wanted to observe Gao Zhengyang, how did she unknowingly fall asleep!
Yan Yu sensed for a moment and did not find any abnormalities in her body. Instead, because of the deep sleep, her mental and physical state were especially good.
The anxiety of the past few days were all swept away. She only felt refreshed and indescribably comfortable.
Gao Zhengyang also opened his eyes and nodded slightly at Yan Yu, "Young Master Yan is awake?"
Yan Yu was a little embarrassed, "I was too tired and did not know when I fell asleep. It was a little rude in front of Brother Gao. "
"It's nothing."
Gao Zhengyang said, "I meditate also rest, the effect is a little better than sleeping."
Yan Yu could not figure out Gao Zhengyang's methods and unknowingly lost a move. She completely lost the previous strong mental state.
As a rank six expert, Yan Yu was very clear that unknowingly falling asleep proved that Gao Zhengyang was much stronger than her.
Yan Yu lost a move, although she did not lose anything, her confidence was greatly affected. She was also more polite to Gao Zhengyang.
The car arrived at a small river, and everyone stopped to rest. The riders on horseback were also very tired after a night of traveling. Their mounts also needed to eat grass, drink water, and rest.
After a simple breakfast, they rested for an hour. The carriages set off again.
This time, it only took them a little more than two hours to reach their destination.
This was a bend in the river, where the river turned and a large amount of sand and mud were washed out. There were also all kinds of water plants growing on it.
Across the river bend was a large piece of fertile land. Probably because they had not been irrigated for a few days, the green seedlings were a little yellow and drooped their heads. One look and it was obvious that the situation was not good.
A rider came over and reported, "City Lord, that river demon often appears in this river bend."
Yan Yu nodded, "You guys go and prepare first."
After sending the rider away, Yan Yu said to Gao Zhengyang, "I also found a helper, Yan Da, he will be here soon."
Bai Ling asked curiously, "Why didn't he come with us on a carriage?"
Yan Yu smiled at Bai Ling, "He doesn't need a carriage."
As he said that, he raised his hand and shot out a rocket into the sky. The rocket flew a few hundred feet high and exploded into a ball of red smoke in the air.
The strange thing was that the smoke didn't dissipate. It was as if it was drawn on the sky.
The riders were assembling bows and crossbows, each of them over ten feet long, looking very majestic. There were all kinds of runes on the crossbows, they were actually magic tools.
With the resources of this world, crossbows were also magic tools, it was obviously a very extravagant thing.
But after seeing Yan Yu's way of doing things, Gao Zhengyang was not surprised. A super family that controlled dozens of cities and had been peaceful for a long time, it was not strange for them to do things like this.
After waiting for about an hour, the riders had already assembled the crossbows, but Yan Yu and the others had not arrived yet.
Gao Zhengyang didn't mind, but Bai Ling was a bit impatient, "Young Master Yan, your people are not here yet?"
Yan Yu actually didn't have the patience to talk to children, but after seeing Gao Zhengyang's ability, she had to look up to Bai Ling. She patiently explained, "Yan Da is my distant cousin, he is a powerful expert, we will wait for him for a while."
Yan Da was a rather arrogant person, Yan Yu had to beg him softly to get him to come. Of course, Yan Yu's idea was to try not to let Yan Da make a move.
Making a move would be a great favor, and Yan Da also had feelings for her. One wrong move and she would lose her life.
Yan Yu didn't mind finding a capable husband, but Yan Da, this arrogant and conceited fellow, she really couldn't tolerate it. A mere rank seven didn't have the qualifications to be so arrogant in Yan City.
Unfortunately, Yan Da didn't understand this logic. He didn't know how many people he had offended. Yan Yu felt that if she followed Yan Da, she might be implicated by this idiot one day and die together.
After waiting for a long time, a sharp whistle came from the sky. That whistle came from afar, and it was rapidly approaching this direction.
Yan Yu was delighted, and released another fire arrow.
After a while, a black shadow descended from the sky with a whistling sound. When he landed, the strong wind that blew blew up the dust on the ground.
This time, Yan Yu and the others were shrouded in dust. Only the person who came was covered in spiritual light, not a speck of dust.
The person who came was wearing an exquisite sapphire blue silk robe, with a jade belt at his waist. His facial features were rather average, and there were two thick handlebar mustaches on his mouth, his eyes rolled upwards. When looking at people, he would glance at them from the corner of his eyes.
That arrogant look, no matter how one looked at it, made people feel disgusted.
Bai Ling really couldn't stand it, and muttered in Gao Zhengyang's ear, "This person is better at pretending than you!"
Gao Zhengyang laughed softly, "Wrong, he is so low end, not worthy to be compared to me."
The two whispered, because of the interference of Gao Zhengyang's essence energy, the person who came could not hear clearly. But he was a rank seven expert, his eyes and ears were very sharp. Just looking at Bai Ling's expression, he knew that she didn't say anything nice.
Yan Da wouldn't lose his temper to a little girl, his eyes turned and said unhappily to Yan Yu, "Who is this?"
Although Yan Yu didn't like Yan Da, he definitely didn't dare offend him. He smiled apologetically, "This is a friend of mine, his name is Gao Zhengyang, he also came to help this time."
"I am enough, why did you call a bunch of random people, so boring."
Yan Da was even more unhappy, in front of Gao Zhengyang, he didn't hide his disdain.
Yan Yu forced a smile, "Brother Gao is helping with good intentions. Moreover, you are a great expert. If there are no accidents, you don't need to do anything. "
"Alright."
Yan Da waved his hand at Yan Yu, indicating that he didn't care about such a small matter. He then said, "Hurry up, I have an appointment at noon …"
"Okay, okay."
Yan Yu then turned to appease Gao Zhengyang, saying in a low voice, "This cousin of mine has his own style, Brother Gao don't take offense."
Gao Zhengyang smiled and shook his head, he wouldn't lower himself to the same level as an idiot.
Yan Yu saw that Gao Zhengyang didn't have a violent reaction and let out a sigh of relief. If Gao Zhengyang and Yan Da started fighting, it wouldn't be good. In her heart, although Gao Zhengyang was an outsider, Yan Yu admired him more.
She was very willing to make friends with such a person if she could rope him in.
Yan Da was nothing but a mad dog. He could temporarily borrow his strength, but if he kept him at home, he would sooner or later bite him to death.
"Let's do it." Yan Yu ordered the knights.
The knights were already prepared, a few of them exerted their strength and threw a fat little pig into the river. This throw was over a hundred feet long, the pig let out a miserable cry in midair.
The cry reverberated in the surroundings, no one knew how far it traveled.
Before the pig fell into the water, the river suddenly parted and a ten feet tall giant green frog floated out of the water. It stuck out its tongue and rolled the pig in the air into its mouth.
The giant frog's body was as big as a three story building. Just by squatting in the river, it emitted a terrifying and strong demonic aura. Its pale green skin was covered with pustules of different sizes, dripping with yellowish green pus. It was extremely disgusting to look at.
Especially its huge protruding green eyes, which stared at Yan Yu and the others without moving. Although the two sides were over a hundred feet apart, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Yan Yu's expression changed. Demons couldn't just be judged by their size. However, demons with a large body were definitely powerful. For the giant frog to grow to such a size, one could imagine how powerful it was.
"Release the arrows!"
Yan Yu decided to give it a try. She waved her hand and ordered the knights to attack with their crossbows.
The three assembled crossbows released the arrows at the same time. The arrows were over ten feet long and were extremely fast. The three arrows flashed and arrived in front of the giant frog.
Just as they were about to hit their target, the giant frog stuck out its tongue and the three crossbow arrows were crushed by the tongue.
The speed and accuracy of the giant frog's tongue made Yan Da suck in a breath of cold air. This fellow was a bit hard to deal with!
"Hurry and retreat, that thing is coming." Gao Zhengyang warned.
Yan Da raised his eyebrows, "Retreat my ass. I'm here, there's no need to be afraid!"
Before he finished speaking, the giant frog's thick hind legs bounced off the ground and shot forward with the speed of an arrow.
Yan Da roared and drew his sword. He became one with his sword and his entire body emitted an intense white sword light. It looked like he was not weak at all.
But before Yan Da could touch the giant frog, the giant frog had already stuck out its tongue. The scarlet red tongue was so fast that Yan Da couldn't dodge at all. It sent him flying with his sword.
Yan Da let out a miserable cry as he flew across the sky to an unknown place.
The giant frog was blocked and also fell from the sky. Its huge body smashed a large hole on the beach and mud splashed everywhere.
Yan Yu also reacted and grabbed Gao Zhengyang and shouted, "Everyone run ….."
The knights also saw that something was wrong and scattered after hearing the order.
Yan Yu grabbed Gao Zhengyang and wanted to leave, but Gao Zhengyang's body was as steady as a mountain and she couldn't move him at all.
She looked at Gao Zhengyang in shock, not understanding what Gao Zhengyang was trying to do. A rank seven expert was about to be killed, if he didn't leave would he be waiting for death?
Gao Zhengyang comforted Yan Yu, "Young Master, don't be impatient, I'll take care of it."
Bai Ling said doubtfully, "Master, don't try to show off."
Gao Zhengyang ignored Bai Ling and waved his horsetail whisk, pointing at the giant frog, "Evildoer, die!"
Yan Yu couldn't help but admit that Gao Zhengyang's movements really had the grace of an immortal. But compared to the giant frog's demonic aura, Gao Zhengyang's actions were more like seeking death.
