Upon seeing this, Li Hao and the others were stunned, including Feng Boping, who also showed a look of surprise.

When Li Hao saw the woman's face clearly, he was stunned and immediately taken aback.

The other party was none other than the Water Kirin Song Qiumo from the Cold Pond pool.

Why is she here?

Li Hao remembered that she seemed to have promised the first Palace Master of the Sandalwood Palace, the ancestor of the Song Family, to guard Sandalwood Palace and not leave easily.

But right now.

This is Liang Prefecture, thousands of miles away.

Under the watchful eyes of several people, Song Qiumo, dragging two Demon the size of small hills behind him, slowly walked to the front of the pass.

She smiled when she saw Li Hao's stunned expression in the camp, and the surrounding cold wind seemed to become warm and bright.

"What, an old friend is coming over, aren't you going to greet him?"

Song Qiumo chuckled lightly.

The melodious sound, like clear spring water, brought them all back to their senses.

Li Hongzhuang and Li He both looked at Li Hao in shock. As members of the Li Family who grew up in Qingzhou City, how could they not recognize this Great Demon King from the Tan Palace Academy!

But this Qilin Demon King was actually coming for Li Hao?

As far as they knew, this Qilin Demon King rarely came down from the mountain.

Li Hao snapped out of his daze and immediately laughed, "I'll come pick you up after I've dealt with this one."

He was still holding onto that Giant Frog Demon.

However, the Giant Frog had been struggling to crawl out of the camp, but Song Qiumo's arrival blocked its escape route. Its fat and huge body was now lying on the ground, trembling and no longer daring to struggle.

With two cultivators at the Four Establishments Realm nearby, even if it managed to break free from the little child's grasp, it wouldn't escape the Four Establishments Realm's attacks.

The Giant Frog was filled with grief, indignation, and despair, and harbored intense hatred for Li Hao. Its only hope at this moment was that by serving this Human Race, it could earn their mercy...

Do you need any help?

Song Qiumo glanced at the Giant Frog, and this casual question made the Giant Frog's entire body of fat tremble, and it broke out in a thick sweat. It trembled and said:

"Senior, I was wrong, please spare my life! I'm willing to be your slave, I'll do anything you ask, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Hao had already reeled in the line and pulled it back by its body.

The combined strength of their arms, enough to weigh tens of millions of pounds, was enough to pull the Giant Frog's body.

The Giant Frog's feelings at this moment were complex and conflicted.

Should I struggle, or not struggle?

Struggling means that you still have the will to resist.

I'm not struggling... but I feel like I'm going to die!

Finally, after a fierce internal struggle, it remained prone and motionless, allowing Li Hao to drag it back, leaving a long, uneven mark on the ground.

"Young man, I meant no offense. It was that Old Dragon who forced me to this. I have cultivated for thousands of years, and I am charitable and helpful. I..."

The Giant Frog was dragged in front of Li Hao, and it vaguely realized that its life or death was entirely in the hands of the young man before it. It hurriedly begged for mercy.

Li Hao smiled and asked, "Do you Cultivation Method?"

"?"

The Giant Frog paused for a moment, then said, "Yes, there are, but our Demon Cultivation Method are only suitable for ourselves, and the Cultivation Method of different races are somewhat different. For example, I became a spirit by absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, and also by absorbing the power of the earth's swamps..."

"If you have it, let me see it."

Li Hao interrupted it.

The Giant Frog looked at Li Hao with suspicion, hesitating, "I don't have this Cultivation Method with me. You can come with me to my home..."

"Give it to me now," Li Hao said calmly.

The Giant Frog trembled, sensing the boy's murderous intent. It was filled with resentment, but outwardly it only hesitated slightly before chuckling, "Just remembered, I think I have a scroll on me."

As it spoke, it opened its mouth, its tongue curling out, revealing a huge scroll of Cultivation Method covered in mucus.

Li Hao casually waved his hand, using his Object Manipulation to peel off the slime, and then took the Cultivation Method aside.

After doing all this, he smiled, then raised his Boar Tusk Sword and charged Past his opponent.

The Fishing Experience has already been fully utilized, so even if you release the opponent now and Angling again, it won't have much effect.

The experience of repeatedly Angling for the same prey is extremely limited.

Seeing Li Hao suddenly attack, the Giant Frog's eyes flashed with fierce Anger, and it roared, "It's all your fault! Even if I die, I'll eat you!"

Knowing it had no hope of escape, it even harbored thoughts of turning the tables and killing Li Hao while it was being dragged along.

At that moment, it suddenly opened its mouth, spewing out a large Poison Mist, but this Poison Mist was blocked by a beam of water—it was Song Qiumo who had made the move.

Immediately afterwards, a small stream of water flowed into the Giant Frog's mouth, and in the blink of an eye, the Giant Frog's body suddenly swelled up and expanded.

Then it let out a scream, and blood gushed out like arrows from its eyeballs. Blood splattered all over the rest of its body, and its swollen body quickly shriveled up amidst the spray.

To avoid getting himself wet and his clothes dirty, Li Hao Time Stop.

Before long, the Giant Frog's body completely shriveled up, and its eyeballs shrank and wrinkled, as if it had been soaked in water for months.

Li Hao looked at Song Qiumo with emotion and helplessness, and said, "I can solve it myself."

"Look at what you're saying, you're blaming me?" Song Qiumo couldn't help but laugh.

Li Hao scratched his head, realizing that his words Past, and said, "I misspoke. Thank you very much for today."

"No need for apologies. You would have been fine even if I hadn't come today."

Song Qiumo glanced at Feng Boping on the Cloud End and said, "I thought you were having a tough time, but I didn't expect you to have someone else looking after you. It seems I arrived a little too late."

Both Li Hongzhuang and Li He Dark Dao, "As expected, this Great Demon King really did come for Li Hao."

Li Hao quickly laughed and said, "Don't mention it. If it weren't for you, those Great Demons would have escaped. By the way, what brings you here? Were you fighting with that Dragon Lord just now?"

"That Old Dragon was spying on me from the side. I wanted to launch a sneak attack, but he was too wary."

Song Qiumo looked somewhat regretful and said, "However, that Old Dragon's strength is no less than mine, so it will be difficult to keep him here. If there wasn't another person here, he probably would have had a good fight with me."

Feng Boping chuckled calmly and said, "You're too modest."

Song Qiumo glanced at him, and then suddenly recognized Feng Boping's identity. A hint of surprise appeared in her eyes. She looked at Li Hao again and couldn't help but smile.

This guy really dares to befriend just anyone.

"I'm here to teach you Swordsmanship."

Song Qiumo said.

"Sending Swordsmanship?" Li Hao asked in surprise.

"Have you forgotten? You are a registered instructor at the Tan Palace Academy. According to the previous agreement, you will receive the Sandalwood Palace's Signature Technique after you finish teaching."

Song Qiumo's figure floated over and landed in front of Li Hao.

A delicate Secluded Orchid fragrance wafted through the air, as if the air was filled with the refreshing scent of fruit.

Li Hongzhuang and Li He felt a slight tremor in their hearts, sensing a bit of pressure. Their bodies tensed up involuntarily, but knowing that the other party meant no harm, they immediately controlled their bodies to relax.

"But I only taught two classes..." Li Hao said.

Before he could finish speaking, Song Qiumo had already turned his hand over and pulled out a Sword Manual from somewhere.

Li Hao glanced at the name; it was indeed the ultimate Signature Technique of the Sandalwood Palace, the Taiji Qiankun Sword.

"The Palace Master said that the remaining lessons will be noted down for you, and you can go back and teach them when you have time in the future," Song Qiumo said with a smile.

Li Hao looked at the Sword Manual and remained silent for a moment.

When he was teaching at the Sandalwood Palace, he was still a peerless genius renowned All Under Heaven Qingzhou City, but Sandalwood Palace set many conditions for him.

Now that he has fallen on hard times outside Heaven's Gate Pass, the other party has traveled thousands of miles to give him gifts.

Thank you.

Li Hao said something and took the Sword Manual.

Li Hongzhuang and Li He exchanged a slightly narrowed glance. They could tell from Song Qiumo's words that he seemed to be saying it on purpose for them to hear, implying that the gift of the Sword Manual did not represent any personal relationship between the Tan Palace Academy and Li Hao, but was simply due to the fact that he was a registered teacher.

Li Hao's relationship with the Li Family is extremely poor now. Helping Li Hao would not be considered flattery of the Li Family, but would likely backfire.

However, by risking offending the Li Family to bestow this Signature Technique upon Li Hao, Sandalwood Palace's intentions and attitude towards him are quite evident.

Li Hongzhuang glanced at Li Hao. She had been guarding Heaven's Gate Pass for many years, but had not received any strong reinforcements. Her nephew had only been there for less than two days, and two people at the Four Establishments Realm had already appeared to protect her.

The Feng Boping on the Cloud End had subsided, and she couldn't recognize the person, guessing that they had probably hidden their true identity.

But this Water Kirin of the Sandalwood Palace will not descend the mountain unless there is a major event, so it is simply unbelievable that it would travel thousands of miles to come here now.

What magic does this child possess that makes these two value him so highly?

Is it because of the Li Family?

She had a vague feeling that it didn't seem right.

Li He stood aside, his eyes solemn, silently noting these things down before sending a message to the Gong-rank Noble.

Since the end of the Battle of Northern Yan, Li Tiangang has been promoted from a second-class Hou-rank Noble to Third-rank Duke, achieving an even higher status.

In the Li Family, only the older generation accumulated the status of Gong-rank Noble.

Moreover, once one obtains the First-rank Duke, it is considered the pinnacle, and it is extremely difficult to be granted such a title.

It's even more impossible to attain a higher rank of divine God-rank Noble; aside from Founding God General, they are basically never granted such titles.

More than a decade ago, Li Junye saved the people of Cang Province from falling and hundreds of cities. He was promoted from Commandant to Hou-rank Noble in one go. This was already the largest leap in the history of conferment of titles.

If Li Junye had been Hou-rank Noble at the time, he could have been granted the title of duke, but his starting point was too low; he was the kind of person who would achieve great success overnight.

Looking at the two beings at the Four Establishments Realm before him, Li He suddenly felt that he was somewhat conspicuous and superfluous.

Moreover, having witnessed Li Hao's combat prowess, he felt that the protective effect he had provided was truly insignificant.

Isn't there a city here?

Song Qiumo stood with his hands behind his back, looked around, and asked with some curiosity.

Li Hao put away the Sword Manual and said with a wry smile, "The city has been destroyed."

As he spoke, he saw the Peacock, which was barely alive but still had a breath left. His eyes flickered, and he quickly condensed his True Power into Fishhook, cast it out, hooked it on the peacock's head, and pulled it up sharply.

[Fishing Experience +2820]

Wow, there are still so many.

Li Hao couldn't help but admire it in his heart.

Having just pulled the Giant Frog over, he had essentially Angling on the shore, gaining around 8,000 experience points.

At this moment, the Peacock Demon was crippled by Song Qiumo, Angling was effortless for it. It still had a third of its experience left, which was quite considerable.

If he were to Angling alone, a single Three Immortalities Great Demon could provide him with approximately 10,000 experience points.

He originally had over 20,000 Fishing Experience, but now he has around 35,000.

If Angling another Three Immortalities, I'll be close to level Sixth Dan.

"You brat..." Feng Boping was speechless when he saw Li Hao even fishing for a dying person.

Li Hao chuckled awkwardly. If it weren't for his experience, as Angling, he would have felt somewhat ashamed of his actions.

"I'll find some paper later and make do. This Great Demon's corpse can't be wasted; I have to draw it."

Li Hao Dark Dao to himself.

The conditions here are rudimentary and not suitable for painting, but the corpses of Three Immortalities Great Demon can accumulate a lot of Painting Dao experience from just one of them. Such opportunities are rare and it would be a pity to waste them.

"So tragic."

Upon hearing Li Hao's words, Song Qiumo raised an eyebrow slightly but said nothing.

"Are you hungry after walking such a long way?" Li Hao asked.

Song Qiumo laughed and said, "There aren't any shortbread cookies here."

I can make it for you.

Li Hao smiled, but then, as if remembering something, he said, "However, we don't have any materials here, so we'll need you to help us purchase some."

"I think you just want to use this opportunity to get me to buy some supplies for you, and maybe you can get some for yourself too." Song Qiumo had already noticed that the conditions here were rudimentary, and they could only get food and drink from the corpses of Demon.

Li Hao, realizing his thoughts had been guessed, couldn't help but blush slightly. "We should share the good fortune!"

"That might be difficult."

"I'll do it."

Li Hao said with a smile.

Song Qiumo glanced at him, then chuckled softly, her voice as melodious as a silver bell.
