When encountering a strong enemy, what Xu Yi lacks is not confidence and courage, but the idea of defeating the enemy.

The idea of defeating the enemy is difficult to achieve in fantasy. Comparing it with previous examples may serve as a reference.

What is a precedent? Xu Yi realizes that he has faced countless enemies along the way, and this can be used as a reference.

His battle with Old Demon Zhong was an example of using the weak to fight the strong, and using the weak to fight the strong. Others may not have this, but as far as he is concerned, it is too many.

As soon as I opened my mind, my thoughts suddenly spread out, and in an instant, countless pictures came to me like streams of light and shadows.

From the edge of the mountain forest outside Xu Family Village, to the battle against Elder Feng, until the killing of Xie Qingfeng, dozens of battles were like projections, all in his mind.

With a bang, the picture in his mind suddenly froze, but it was a battle to kill Old Ancestor Shui.

That battle at that time could be described as the most dangerous battle in Xu Yi's life. At that time, he only had the cultivation level of Body Tempering Peak, but Old Ancestor Shui was Liquid Condensation Realm, with the sixth rank of Undefeated Golden Body, making Xu Yi almost invincible.

However, Xu Yi cleverly used the power of the Yin River to use Cloud Burst Arrow, and with the help of the Yin River's power, Old Ancestor Shui was successfully killed by the Yin River.

Today's situation is very similar to that of that time. If he wants to destroy Old Demon Zhong, it is no longer possible for him to do so. He can only rely on the right time and place. The so-called borrowing the strength of heaven and earth to transform his own power is nothing more than that.

With this thought, he slapped his thigh suddenly and said to himself, the situation is not good.

It turns out that when Hong Yun Hall proposed the challenge, he limited the time to two months later.

He limited the time just to facilitate his practice Profound Thunder Body Tempering Art.

According to the rules of the Hong Yun Hall battle, if one side chooses the battle time, the other side will choose the battle location.

As the saying goes, the right time and place are easy to borrow, but the right time is hard to find. Now, Old Demon Zhong is choosing the battlefield, so how can he borrow the right place?

"Could it be that God wants to kill me?"

Xu Yi suppressed his mind and continued to think divergently. He was never a guy who gave up easily.

You can't borrow the favorable geographical location, you can only force the weather, and the weather is nothing more than wind, frost, snow, rain...

A sudden flash occurred in his mind, and Xu Yi jumped up...

Starry Night, Shallow Grassland.

Compared with Autumn Wind Plain, which is a mixture of dragons and snakes, Shallow Grassland is much more high-end.

If Autumn Wind Plain and Shallow Grassland are compared to two communities, Autumn Wind Plain is a slum and Shallow Grassland is a rich neighborhood.

The entire Shallow Grassland has been artificially cut into countless small islands, surrounded by water. When viewed from above, it looks like emerald green beads strung together by water chains.

And every emerald green bead holds a powerful force that can be called Chaotic Star Sea.

Although Peach Blossom Alliance is not considered the top force in the entire star sea, it does not prevent Old Demon Zhong from also occupying an island here.

The night is as deep as the sea, and the lights on the Peach Blossom Island are bright. The bright lights are obviously not firelights, but a small condenser array, which reflects the entire Peach Blossom Island into a Xuehong peach blossom. When viewed from above, it is extremely eye-catching.

At this moment, the night was already dark, and a banquet was being held in the main hall of Peach Blossom Island. Although there were dishes of mountains and seas and wine, and beauties were singing and dancing, the atmosphere of the entire banquet was always low.

Dozens of people attending the meeting were absentmindedly dealing with the contents of the cup, and their attention was focused on the Middle-aged Man in White on the yellow Golden Dragon Throne. This person is Peach Blossom Demon Zhong Ziyu.

What is extremely inconsistent with Old Demon Zhong's world-shaking reputation is the impression of Old Demon Zhong, who is dressed elegantly in white and has a handsome face full of elegance. If the corners of his eyes were not slightly narrow, he would look like a gentleman.

"Okay, since you don't have the heart to eat or drink, let's get out."

Old Demon Zhong waved his hand, and the two teams of waiters filed in, ending the normally embarrassing banquet.

Old Demon Zhong's living ostentation has always been grand, and the noisy banquet was removed, and the perfect long table venue was decorated in an instant.

Old Demon Zhong held the wine glass and settled down on the main seat first. Without him saying anything, everyone found their own seats and settled down in silence.

Everyone in the meeting is either the backbone of the Peach Blossom Alliance, or the main allies that Peach Blossom Alliance has made over the years.

However, no matter what his identity is, he is naturally respected by Old Demon Zhong, and everyone knows what kind of image this seemingly gentle Mr. Zhong will be once he gets angry.

Therefore, whether Old Demon Zhong is giving way to a banquet or having a meeting, everyone should be cautious in their words and deeds, not seeking merit, but seeking no faults.

With a soft clang sound, Double Dragon Glazed Cup in Old Demon Zhong's palm fell on the banquet table carved from warm jade. The red colored glaze instantly reflected the entire piece of warm jade, turning the colorless jade table into Xuehong, as if lighting a ball of fireworks, "What are you doing, thinking that I have called you here this time just to see you stand up in front of me? You are just a clown, just swat a buzzing fly to death. Do you think I will be angry with you?"

"The leader of the alliance is joking. He is so careful that he suddenly gets famous. He thinks he can destroy himself by shaking a tree like a fly."

The person speaking was a rich middle-aged man wearing a regimental shirt. He was in the middle and was inconspicuous. In fact, this person was a top-notch strategist in the Peach Blossom Alliance.

With the words of the middle-aged man in Tuanshan, the atmosphere suddenly became tense. Everyone spoke in unison, scolding Xu Yi for being rude and deserving of death.

"Everyone, little fleas, why should I say more or pay attention to this person with one more word? It's all to praise him. Now, there is a business that makes you rich, but I don't know if you are willing to do it."

The middle-aged man in tuanshan smiled slightly and suddenly changed the topic.

He is Peach Blossom Alliance's military advisor and Old Demon Zhong's confidant. As soon as he opens his mouth, everyone knows that it is Old Demon Zhong's intention, and they all listen with bated breath.

The middle-aged man in Tuanshan said, "Hong Yun Hall has once again opened a gambling market through the challenge, and everyone must know it. You are either the backbone of the alliance, or the alliance leader's close friends. We have known each other for many years. Now that we have this rare opportunity, the alliance leader wants to help you make a fortune."

"Thank you Mr. Zhong for your kindness. I just don't know how to grow hair. I'll tell you the truth. Old Liu recently paid Hundred Blades Alliance Deputy Alliance Leader's daughter's money for Quanzi. My money is really tight. If you can make money, don't leave me Old Liu."

The skinny old man looked like a tuberculosis ghost and said with a smile.

His words were followed by several people one after another, all of whom said that they must catch this express train to get rich. At the same time, they all brought up a matter that had recently consumed a large amount of wealth.

The strange thing is that those who spoke out were all allies of the Peach Blossom Alliance, but no one from the Peach Blossom Alliance spoke out.

Unless Peach Blossom Alliance people don't want to support me, they really don't dare to interrupt.

We are all sensible people, but no one can understand what the words of the tuberculosis person Old Ghost mean.

He kept saying that getting rich and good things should never be tolerated by him, but he mentioned the word "poor money" early on. He was not afraid of losing his fortune, but he was clearly afraid of being beaten by Old Demon Zhong.
