"Yes, I accept the order." Liu Ming heard the words, and after a little hesitation, he agreed.
"Great. If you can find the source of the Demonic Corpse, you'll be a great hero of the Central Dynasty. I can assure you that not only will the previous matter be written off, but everything will also be smooth sailing in the future," Huangfu Yupo guaranteed with a deep meaning.
"Thank you, Elder Yupo," Liu Ming smiled faintly and said while cupping his hands.
"Oh, by the way, we shouldn't bring too many people to avoid alerting the enemy. Let Ying 'er go with you. I believe you'll be able to keep Ying' er safe with your ability, "Huangfu Yupo glanced at Zhao Qianying and said faintly.
Liu Ming's expression changed slightly when he heard that. He turned to look at Zhao Qianying.
Zhao Qianying happened to look at him too. Their gazes met in mid-air and then they separated.
The corner of Zhao Qianying's mouth moved a little, but she did not say anything. She did not seem to object to it.
Huangfu Yupo's face showed a hint of joy. She then instructed, "Be careful on this trip. If you see anything unusual in Han Zhou, don't act rashly. Send me a message immediately. I'll immediately lead the Blood Lion Legion to reinforce."
As she spoke, she flipped her hand and took out a rather exquisite white jade talisman and handed it to Liu Ming.
"Yes, I understand," Liu Ming agreed and kept the white jade talisman.
If they guessed correctly, the Liu Clan must have summoned the Demonic Corpse in Han Zhou. It was impossible for the two of them to do anything. They really needed the Blood Lion Legion.
After Huangfu Yupo reminded the two of them, Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying bade farewell to Huangfu Yupo and turned into two rays of light, speeding toward Han Zhou.
Somewhere in the valley, Huangfu Jianguo stopped and stood.
A cold light flashed in his eyes as he watched Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying disappear into the distance. He sneered.
The strength displayed by Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying in this battle had greatly shocked him, especially Liu Ming's strength. He had no choice but to re-evaluate Liu Ming.
It was an undeniable fact that Liu Ming possessed the imperial bloodline, and the Void Demon Cauldron's judgment was definitely not wrong. If Liu Ming really became Dual Cultivation partners with Zhao Qianying, it would indeed be enough to pose a threat to his position.
Such a threat made him feel uneasy.
But now, the two of them had actually left the Blood Lion Corps. Huangfu Jiangu's eyes flickered, and a thought quietly emerged in his mind.
After the Blood Lion Legion reorganized themselves in the valley, they immediately set out.
In the center of the Blood Lion Legion, Huangfu Yupo stood on the flying chariot with a contemplative look on his face.
In fact, she had always been a prudent person, but the Ancient Demon Corpses summoned by the Liu Clan made her feel a little uneasy. Therefore, she did not hesitate to take the risk to defeat the Liu Clan's army. However, she also suffered a lot of losses.
Next, she had to consider how to eliminate the remaining Liu Clan members in the Yin Prefecture as soon as possible.
Just as Huangfu Yupo was pondering, a figure flew over and landed on the flying chariot. It was Huangfu Jiangu.
"Greetings, Elder Yupo." Huangfu Jiangu respectfully bowed.
Huangfu Yupo nodded and said, "There's no need to be so courteous, Your Highness Jiangu. You've worked hard in the battle."
Huangfu Yupo humbly said, "Elder Yupo is overpraising me. This is what I should do as a member of the Huangfu Clan."
Huangfu Yupo politely said, "Your Highness Jiangu, is there something you need from me?"
"Elder Yupo, to be honest, I'm here to bid farewell to you." Huangfu Jiangu said and cupped his hands towards Huangfu Yupo.
Huangfu Yupo frowned and asked, "Oh? What does Your Highness Jiangu mean?"
Huangfu Yupo frowned and said, "To be honest, the reason why Imperial Father arranged for me to follow the Blood Lion Legion to the Yin Prefecture is because he has secretly arranged a secret mission for me. Now that the Blood Lion Legion has defeated the Liu Clan's army in the Yin Prefecture, I believe there aren't many forces in the Yin Prefecture that can contend with the Blood Lion Legion. I won't be of much use if I continue to stay in the legion, so I'm preparing to leave and carry out the mission that Imperial Father has assigned to me. "Huangfu Jiangu slowly said.
Huangfu Yupo's face slightly changed when he heard this, but he immediately said, "Since it's a secret mission arranged by the Demon King, I won't ask too much.
Does Your Highness Jiangu need any help? "Huangfu Yupo's face slightly changed when he heard this.
Huangfu Yupo nodded and said, "Since it's a secret mission arranged by the Demon King, I won't ask too much. Does Your Highness Jiangu need any help?"
Huangfu Yupo nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I won't say anything more. Just be careful, Your Highness Jiangu."
A moment later, Huangfu Jiangu's group left the Blood Lion Legion, took a detour, and chased after Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying.
Huangfu Jiangu's face was full of killing intent as he turned to ask a red-haired man next to him, "The two of them have been gone for some time. Can you track them?"
"Your Highness, don't worry. My Crooked Spirit Beast has already remembered the smell of the two of them. Even if they are thousands of miles away, I'm confident that I can find them." A small beast with bright red fur came out of the red-haired man's sleeve. He stretched out his hand and caressed it twice as he said.
Huangfu Jiangu nodded. He looked ahead and sneered. The group of people quickly disappeared into the distant horizon.
In the air, the void flashed and a black figure emerged. It was the Profound Enlightenment expert that the Demon Emperor had sent to monitor Liu Ming.
The black figure looked at the figures of Huangfu Jiangu and the others with a helpless smile. After a moment, the void flashed and his figure disappeared without a trace.
…
In a nameless area of the Yin Prefecture, two streaks of light flew side by side in the sky.
The two streaks of light were Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying.
While Liu Ming was flying, his eyes glanced around from time to time.
Below was a flat plain. Occasionally, he could see some dilapidated cities. However, because of the war, these cities were already empty.
Liu Ming sighed and turned to look at Zhao Qianying next to him with a strange expression on his face.
The two had left the Blood Lion Legion for a few days. Now they were about to leave the Yin Prefecture and enter the Han Prefecture.
However, along the way, the atmosphere between the two was a little awkward. They basically didn't communicate along the way and just silently hurried along.
"Miss Zhao, we have been flying for a few days. We are almost at the Han Prefecture. Let's find a place to rest for a while and recover our spiritual power." Liu Ming's eyes suddenly flashed as he looked around and said at the same time.
The weather here had already gradually turned cold, and a vast expanse of white could be faintly seen in the distant horizon.
Zhao Qianying was startled when she heard this, but then she nodded.
The two found an open space and landed. They each meditated and rested for half a day. Their spiritual power and spirit had completely recovered.
"The Han Prefecture is up ahead. Although I don't know if the Liu family is summoning the Demonic Corpse in that canyon, we have to be careful. When the time comes, we might need to rely on your Truth Listener divine power, "said Liu Ming.
Zhao Qianying nodded silently and didn't say anything.
Liu Ming smiled bitterly. Along the way, he was basically the only one who spoke. Zhao Qianying didn't say more than three sentences.
He shook his head and waved his hand. A black light appeared on his body, lifting his body and flying into the distance.
Zhao Qianying's eyes flashed slightly, and she followed.
They were already close to the Han Prefecture. When the two flew, they restrained their spiritual power, so their flying speed wasn't fast.
Half a day later, the two arrived at a desolate mountain range.
According to the map, after flying past this mountain range, they would be in the Han Prefecture.
Suddenly, Liu Ming's expression changed. A black light shone from his body, and he moved several feet to the side, pulling Zhao Qianying into his arms.
When Zhao Qianying was hugged by Liu Ming, a strong masculine scent came to her face. Her body stiffened and her face turned red. She couldn't help but shout angrily,
"What are you doing!"
She struggled with all her might, but her strength was nothing compared to Liu Ming's. Liu Ming's arms around her body were like iron hoops, not moving an inch.
Liu Ming hugged Zhao Qianying, then tapped his feet and moved to the side.
Just at that moment, space rippled, and several streaks of dazzling light silently shot past their backs. They missed by just a hair's breadth, almost brushing past their bodies.
Zhao Qianying's face turned pale, and her body became drenched in sweat.
If Liu Ming hadn't pulled her, she wouldn't have been able to escape these streaks of light.
Liu Ming's expression was as calm as still water. He landed on a nearby cliff with Zhao Qianying in his arms, and looked in the direction of the streaks of light.
Zhao Qianying struggled to break free from Liu Ming's hands and stood to the side.
"Thank you …" Zhao Qianying's face was slightly red, and she mumbled.
"You don't have to thank me, the danger isn't over yet …" Liu Ming's gaze was as sharp as a knife as he looked ahead. Halfway through his sentence, his expression suddenly changed again.
A dazzling, colorful light suddenly appeared near the cliff where the two were. It covered an area of several hundred feet, and pressed down on the two.
"Oh no!"
Liu Ming thought of something, then he exclaimed. His figure moved, and he was about to blast toward the outside.
However, he was obviously too late. As soon as he got up, the surrounding colorful light suddenly closed up, enveloping Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying.
The scenery in front of Liu Ming and Zhao Qianying changed. Below them was a vast, tumbling sea, and the barren mountain scenery was no longer there.
"What's going on, Liu? Did the Liu family discover us and set up an ambush here? "Zhao Qianying flew to Liu Ming's side, and her expression was a little ugly.
"It's not the Liu family. When the formation closed up just now, I vaguely saw seven or eight figures, all of whom were at the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm. They seemed to have followed Huangfu Jiangu to the Blood Lion Legion, "Liu Ming said in a low voice.
Zhao Qianying's expression suddenly changed when she heard this.
"Liu Liu, did you see clearly?" Zhao Qianying's beautiful eyes flashed, and she asked in a serious tone.
"How could I make such a careless remark?" Liu Ming said.
Zhao Qianying frowned, and her expression gradually darkened.
"Let's not talk about this first. Right now, we should be surrounded by an illusory formation. Let's find a way to get out of here first," Liu Ming said, and with a wave of one hand, a green saber radiance appeared. It was the Green Demon Blade.
Zhao Qianying nodded slowly, and she muttered an incantation, and a purple crystal short ruler magic weapon appeared in her hand.
