Feng Xiuquan blushed and quickly handed over his hands, "I don't dare, I don't dare, I'm too anxious and confused..."

"Commander, good news!"

Suddenly a shout came from the bottom of the mountain.

A middle-aged man in blue robe with a long and thin face flew over. It was Command Center who joined the army Lu Song.

He ran so hard that his hat was tilted, and without bothering to straighten it, he waved his hand from afar, "The situation has turned! Donghuang Cult has nailed the head of Vein Dragon, and our side has nailed the tail!"

Feng Xiuquan turned around suddenly, rushed towards him, grabbed Lu Song's arm, "Paled? Really nailed him?"

"Absolutely true!"

Lu Song was so painful that his face was deformed.

"Okay! Okay!"

Feng Xiuquan laughed out loud, and all the sorrow in his heart was swept away.

He let go of Lu Song, clapped his hands heavily, and said loudly, "Which of my favorite generals did it? This is a great achievement, a wonderful achievement, and must be rewarded!" Lu Song lowered his head, "The news just came back, and I don't know which team it is."

"Check, check quickly!"

Feng Xiuquan said loudly, "How can such a wonderful achievement be buried? Send someone over immediately!"

Lu Song responded quickly.

Feng Xiuquan turned around, looked at Jian Ruyu, and cupped his hands in vain, "Since Elder Jian can't be invited, just pretend that Feng has never been here."

After saying that, he hummed softly and walked down the mountain.

Lu Song was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly handed over to Jian Ruyu and followed him.

Old Han watched the two people go away and laughed angrily, "What the hell is this Feng Xiuquan! It means that this kid has a life, and someone will hold it for him at the critical moment. Otherwise, this Liangshan's Desolate Soil will have to be lost by him, and we will be implicated."

As he spoke, he pointed to the foot of the mountain, "Now that things are starting to get better, this guy started to play the trick of using people to face the front and not using people to face the back. What the hell!"

"I don't care about him."

Jian Ruyu looked to the southeast and saw the Azure Qi surging place, "Right now, each of us only has one, and no one is willing to let go. Next, we will have to fight, and the fight will probably cause sparks to fly."

Speaking of this, she became more curious, "But I don't know who has the ability to nail the dragon's tail just when Donghuang Cult nailed the dragon's head." Old Han was waiting to answer, when another shout came from the mountain road, "Old Han, Elder Jian, Long Xiu Lin Li are back!"

Zheng Bei quickly walked up the mountain and threw his hands at the two of them.

Old Han asked, "How?"

Zheng Bei said, "Almost all of them are back and have completed their tasks. It's a pity that two of them were lost."

Jian Ruyu's eyes turned cold, he opened his mouth, but remained silent. Old Han then asked, "How was the result?"

Zheng Bei said, "We have already beaten each other. Among Martial Exam Student, Long Xiu is first; among Inspector, Deng Qing is first."

Jian Ruyu's eyes flashed.

But Zheng Bei said again, "However, Deng Qing didn't come back."

Jian Ruyu's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Old Han frowned and said, "Killed in battle? That shouldn't be the case! This kid has my true inheritance. Even if he can't beat him, can't he still run away?"

"No, no."

Zheng Bei hurriedly waved his hand, "The others are fine. I stayed behind and said I wanted to study Wasteland Veins and let the others come back first." Jian Ruyu snorted coldly, "He knows how to be a monster."

But Old Han shook his head, "No. Xiao Deng is proficient in mathematics and science. I, Numerical Arts, are usually people who are keen on studying. When I encounter something I don't understand, I will never give up easily."

As he spoke, he stroked his beard and said, "Leave it to study Wasteland Veins, which is very consistent with the Xiao Deng I know."

Zheng Bei felt a chill in my back.

When did the relationship between Deng Qing and Old Han become so good?

He originally thought that with Jian Ruyu protecting him, this boy was a blessing. Who knows, Old Han also regarded him as his heir.

Fortunately, fortunately!

If I had listened to that idiot Zheng Shan's advice that day and used Hu Li's so-called testimony to poke it up...

Zheng Bei didn't dare to think about it anymore. I was so frightened that I almost got killed by that idiot.

"Old Han! Elder Jian!"

Another figure ran up the mountain road.

Xia Daoyu rushed up to the three of them and said urgently, "Command Center's personal guard camp has come and surrounded our camp!" Old Han twitched his beard, "Are you crazy?"

Jian Ruyu snorted coldly, turned around and left, "Let's go see what happened to Feng."

Time goes back more than an hour.

The strong wind blew through Mountain Hollow, and the mountains were covered with grass and trees. The gravel ground under Deng Qing's feet was already a bit dazzlingly green.

He looked at the gathering light spots, his heart pounding.

The Wasteland Qi coming from the ground became more and more fierce, and it penetrated through the soles of the feet and turned into heat flow upwards. Deng Qing kept carrying "Devour Heaven Scripture" to export the heat flow outside the body, never leaving his eyes off the ground.

The spots of light that were originally scattered everywhere are now converging in one place.

Suddenly, the Blood Baleful Intent silk thread extending into the ground suddenly became taut.

Deng Qing was shocked.

He didn't dare to pull hard, so he quickly followed the force and continued to let out the thread. At the same time, he took off the Wasteland Spike from behind, scratched the palm of his hand with the tip of the nail, and wiped the blood off the sword.

Soaked in blood, Wasteland Spike glowed.

Deng Qing stared at the place where the light spots overlapped the most, stepped out, held Wasteland Spike and plunged it down. With a pop, Wasteland Spike sank into the sand and gravel. Almost at the same time, the blood line that Deng Qing plunged into the ground suddenly loosened.

Deng Qing dared to delay. As soon as he had an idea, he quickly took Blood Baleful Intent back.

Blood Baleful Intent just returned to the body, his feet were shocked.

Rumble! It was as if a huge thing turned over under the ground, the sand and gravel on the ground jumped wildly, and a large piece of Azure Qi surged out of the ground, instantly covering Deng Qing's knees.

Farther away on Mountain Wall, a large number of boulders rolled down.

Deng Qing stood up and ran "Devour Heaven Scripture" at full speed while running wildly. He ran for more than ten miles in one breath before stopping on a high slope.

Looking back at the way we came from, the area of Mountain Hollow has been submerged by Azure Qi.

And the terrifying rumbling sound can still be heard clearly even though it is so far away.

Deng Qing took a few breaths and thought to himself, he just pricked it, how could it make such a big noise?

He stood on a high place and waited until Azure Qi over there gradually calmed down and there was no more vibration under his feet, then he hurried back along the original road.

When he got closer, he saw his Wasteland Spike at a glance.

The Wasteland Spike was stuck in place and was emitting brilliant green light, even the surrounding ground was illuminated. Deng Qing stared at it for a long time, with joy on his face, and secretly said, "When Su Yun's gang pinned Vein Qi before, they had never seen such a scene.

Could it be that you really won the lottery this time?"

He walked around Wasteland Spike for two steps, and the more he looked at it, the more excited he became.

Command Center and Donghuang Cult each pinned three Wasteland Veins. Both sides fought to the death to pin this Seventh Wasteland Vein.

If you really nailed this Seventh Wasteland Vein, how much credit would it be?

Deng Qing rubbed his hands, wishing he could find someone to ask immediately.

But just as this thought came to his mind, his rubbing hands suddenly stopped.

No.

I'm afraid this credit is too great.

Back in North Warehouse, he couldn't even take credit for crossing the mountain corpse.

Now this Wasteland Veins is related to the outcome of the two armies, Front Line the outcome of countless confrontations.

How many big shots are staring at it, how can I get it? Deng Qing rubbed his temples, and then looked at the Wasteland Spike with green light, he felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time, and he had to find Jian Ruyu quickly.

Among the people he knew, this senior had the highest status, the highest cultivation level, and was relatively reliable.

With the idea settled, Deng Qing no longer hesitated, turned around and burrowed into the grass, tightened the tree vines that bound the weapons a little tighter, carried the big baggage on his back, and hurried towards the camp.

The Front Line camp of Deployment Office is located on the west side of Command Center, backed by a barren slope. Dozens of tents are lined up, with wooden fences erected around the perimeter, and an open space is left in front of the camp gate.

At this moment, hundreds of armored soldiers surrounded the camp, and all entrances and exits were blocked.

Zheng Bei, who had turned back first, led Deployment Office's senior officials to block the camp gate and argued sternly with a general.

Long Xiu, Lin Li and others were also crowded in the camp, and they couldn't figure out what was going on there. When Jian Ruyu and his party arrived, the leader Chen Kun was already impatient and was waiting for an order to break in.

"Chen Kun! You are seeking death!"

Old Han gave a cold shout and approached menacingly.

Chen Kun hurriedly handed over his hand, "Chen Kun, a humble official, has met Old Han and Elder Jian. I was ordered by my humble official to take Martial Exam Student and Inspector who participated in the assessment this time to ask questions. I don't know why they were blocked. Please make it convenient for Old Han."

Old Han said with a cold face, "What are you asking? These people just came back from the mission and their injuries were not properly taken care of. So you surrounded the camp and wanted to take people away. Why are you so crazy?"

Chen Kun said, "I didn't tell you what the specific matter was. I was just ordered to lead people." Old Han was furious, "You can't even explain what happened, so you have to take people from me?"

Chen Kun took out the token from his waist and poked it in front of Old Han, "I serve the general's orders, so I don't dare to delay. If Old Han wants to stop me, I can only..."

Before he finished speaking, Old Han raised his hand and slapped him.

There was a muffled bang, and the nail leaf on Chen Kun's chest suddenly dented, and he flew backwards, knocking over two guards, and fell heavily to the ground.

With a crash, the guards flashed their swords one after another. Jian Ruyu snorted coldly, flicked his long sleeves, and swish, swish, countless weapons flew into the sky.

All the guards were stunned. Suddenly, a strong wind blew up, and with a whoosh, the weapons fell back into the hands of the guards accurately.

Everyone followed the sound and saw that another group of people had arrived, led by an old man who was tall and tall, with gray beard and hair, and was wearing a dark green robe.

As he approached, the sleeves of his robes fluttered, forcing the two guards in front of him to quickly step aside to make way.

The old man glanced at Chen Kun on the ground, waved his hand, and someone stepped forward to help him up.

Immediately, he came straight to Jian Ruyu and bowed his hands, "You are the famous Elder Jian, right? I am Huang Changhe, and I have met Elder Jian."

Old Han sneered, "Elder Huang is so majestic. Why, you also joined Command Center?"

Huang Changhe turned to Old Han, his smile unchanged. "This time Command Center is formed in Qingzhou. I, True Yang Martial Sect, am the backbone of the Qingzhou sect. Of course, I must give my full support. Huang is naturally able to contribute. Fortunately, Commander Feng favored me and appointed me as Command Center. Discipline Commissioner is in charge of military discipline. If Front Line encounters injustice, Huang will not dare not do his best."

Old Han sneered.

Jian Ruyu pointed at Long Xiu and others in front of the account and said coldly, "What mistake did these people make? Why were they taken away?"

Huang Changhe said, "Elder Jian may have misunderstood. No one said they made a mistake. It's just that some things are confidential and I need to ask them for clarification."

Dare I ask Elder Jian, can I take the person away now? In Command Center, all the adults are waiting."

Old Han knew that this matter had become a big deal, and there was no way to stop it. He waved his hand and said, "Bring it back as you brought it. If you lose even one hair, I will go find you personally."

Huang Changhe smiled slightly, but ignored him. Instead, he handed over to Jian Ruyu: "Huang has admired Elder Jian's reputation for a long time. If there is an opportunity, he would like to ask Elder Jian for some tips."

Jian Ruyu snorted lightly, didn't even bother to reply, and turned around.

Huang Changhe didn't care, he cupped his hands towards Jian Ruyu's back and strode away.

Long Xiu, Lin Li and others looked at Old Han, and when they saw that he didn't make a sound, they knew that the overall situation had been decided, and they could only follow the guards out of the camp gate. Inside Deployment Office's main camp tent, the lights were bright.

Old Han Jian Ruyu sits at the top, and Zheng Bei Xia Daoyu and others sit on both sides.

More than two hours have passed since Long Xiu and others were taken away, but there has been no news from Command Center. Zheng Bei put down the tea cup and said, "I asked someone about it. Long Xiu and the others were separated to talk. People outside can't get in, and they can't ask why."

Xia Daoyu frowned and said, "Could he be involved in some major case?"

Old Han waved his hand, "Don't worry about this for now. Although Feng Xiuquan is a slut, he is not a fool. Long Xiu, Su Yun, these people are almost all from high-ranking families. Feng Xiuquan knows the importance and will not mess around."

Hearing what he said, everyone felt relieved.

Old Han's brows were still furrowed, "Long Xiu They are naturally fine, no need to say anything more.

The problem now is that we, Deployment Office, have to take some credit. Otherwise, if this goes on, it will be bad news. As far as I know, Command Center sent the battle report to Imperial Court, but it didn't stop for a moment. Considering the current situation, can we have a few good words in it?

Imperial Court will not be punished for this, but if we continue to have this kind of record, we will lose face if we return to Martial Dao Institute."

Xia Daoyu couldn't help but said, "But we can't be blamed for this. It's not that we don't want to fight, it's that there is something wrong with Command Center's formation.

We have been fighting Qi Beast for two consecutive battles. How much effort has been expended, and when it's our turn to report the merits, they only write about the battle with Donghuang Cult, but nothing happened to us. What's the point of this?"

Everyone spoke out one after another. Obviously, they all had deep opinions about Command Center.

Jian Ruyu said coldly, "If you don't do meritorious service, you won't do meritorious service. It'll be good if you can return home safely. The head of the hospital is not an idiot and won't bother with this."

Everyone nodded. At this moment, the wooden sign outside the camp was knocked, and someone reported, "Elder Jian, Deng Qing is back."

Jian Ruyu said without looking back, "I know, let him wait in my tent."

The people outside responded and left immediately.

Zheng Bei and Xia Daoyu looked at each other, and they both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Deng Qing is just a Inspector. He will come back as soon as he comes back. Why should he specifically report to the main business account where the matter is being discussed?

It was clearly Elder Jian who had explained this in advance.

This kind of attention is extraordinary.

What's more, Jian Ruyu also asked Deng Qing to go directly to her tent to wait.

Zheng Bei picked up the tea cup and was secretly speechless.

He knew what Jian Ruyu was like, so naturally he would not think about the affair between a man and a woman. But how could an ordinary man get the treatment of entering her tent and waiting for her?

Now that I think about it, my handling of Hu Li that day could not have been more wise.

With this thought, he cursed Zheng Shan in his heart again. After half a stick of incense, Jian Ruyu rushed to the tent after the meeting, and then opened the tent curtain, and saw Deng Qing sitting cross-legged on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "It's not like there is no stool, why are you sitting on the ground?"

Deng Qing hurriedly stopped and stood up, cupped his hands and said, "This junior just came over the mountains and is very dirty, so just sit on the ground."

Jian Ruyu glanced at his mud-covered clothes, and when he was about to speak, he saw a bundle of weapons and a large bundle piled in the corner, and curled his lips and said, "You think this place is a mess, why do you transport everything here?"

Besides, what are you doing collecting all these swords, guns and clubs?"

"They are all trophies, so of course they are sold for money."

Deng Qing patted the bundle of weapons and said, "Senior, although they are inconspicuous, they are all good things, at least thirty or fifty taels per handful."

Jian Ruyu was speechless for a moment.

She knew Deng Qing's origins, and she didn't think it was funny at all. It was just interesting to think about the way this kid carried a bunch of swords, guns and sticks on his back and traveled across mountains and ridges to find her.

Deng Qing raised his hand again, "Speaking of these trophies, could you please help me see if there is any better than the sword on my back? If so, this junior can just change to a different weapon."

At this moment, the Myriad-Blade Sword was also wrapped in the pile of trophies by Deng Qing.

Jian Ruyu hummed, "You're welcome."

Having said that, she still walked over, glanced at it, and said, "The Desolate Iron Sword on your back is better." Deng Qing was a little surprised and looked back at the hilt of the sword exposed on her shoulder.

Jian Ruyu said, "Don't think Chen Xiaotian is of average level, he is Gold Sword Examiner of Bone-Forging First Layer, and all he eats is Sword Dao. He spent a lot of money on this Desolate Iron Sword.

That kid is definitely still holding back his energy and wants to win the sword back. If he knew that you were still picking and choosing behind his back and thought his sword wasn't good enough, I'd probably be so angry that he would vomit blood."

Deng Qing smiled and said, "This junior is just asking."

As he spoke, he unpacked his bag and dug out a pile of Medicine Box and porcelain bottles, revealing them together with the Gold and Silver inside. "There are also some of these that the juniors don't recognize and don't dare to use them indiscriminately. Please take a look and see if there are any precious medicines."

Jian Ruyu walked over and took a look, "Those pills are nothing unusual. Most of them are for healing wounds. They are ordinary goods. There is a lot of money here. It seems that you have made a fortune this time."

Deng Qing cupped his hand and said with a salivating face, "Thanks to senior."

"Come on less!"

Jian Ruyu waved his hand, walked to the table and sat down, "You performed well this time. I asked, Martial Exam Student and Inspector, and they all praised you. In the end, it was you who turned the tide and brought them back. Well done."

Deng Qing was waiting for a few words of humility when Jian Ruyu said, "Okay, it's okay. You can go and rest. Command Center will not assign any more tasks to you for the time being."

As she spoke, she picked up the tea cup on the table and took a sip.

Somehow, it seemed that every time she saw Deng Qing, she couldn't help but want to drink tea. Deng Qing didn't move, "I'm afraid I won't be able to rest for a while. I came to the elder because I have something to tell the elder."

"Say."

"I may have pinned Wasteland Veins."
