Chapter 3839: Growth of Strength
Being able to kill his opponent in a short period of time, Sauron has already investigated clearly that there is a mysterious force behind Freeman.
Before the situation is clear, you must not act rashly. The new mercenary group must also be thinking of making Sauron and Freeman their enemies so that he can help them solve such a big trouble. .
How could the other party have such good intentions? They were all doing it for their own interests. This time Freeman's proposal for a hunt was rejected, which also gave Xu Qiang and others time to develop.
"I want to see what this Cold Sword mercenary group will achieve if I give them some time. Let me wait and see."
Lenny took an adventure and went to the Vulture's station to negotiate with Sauron. In the end, he lived up to everyone's trust and successfully canceled Freeman's proposal.
The two returned to the camp that afternoon and talked about what happened before. Lenny was almost detained by Sauron.
Fortunately, due to Duan Zhisheng's arrangement, Yingluo's appearance saved the day. This time it was Perode's mistake. He forgot to calculate Sauron's character and conduct. It is not easy to convince such a person easily.
"Although your mercenary group resolved the crisis this time, I noticed before that there were practitioners traveling with Freeman."
Yingluo investigated the situation, and there were several masters accompanying Freeman. Their clothes were no different from ordinary people, but Yingluo could detect that these people exuded the aura of cultivators.
"Before I came here, I never thought that practitioners have set rules and would not easily participate in the fights of outsiders. What are the origins of these people?"
The activities of the practitioners were abnormal. Duan Zhisheng had seen this last time when Edward's cargo ship was attacked by the practitioners.
According to the analysis of the situation, the opponent's strength is quite good. In a one-on-one situation, he may not be able to gain the upper hand.
"Xiao Yi said once that these people seem to come from an ancient clan, and they have a huge grudge against the Xiao clan."
"According to what you said, Senior Brother Duan, these people are actually here for Xiao Yi."
"It can also be said that their purpose is to restrict Xiao Yi's development and take action from the people around Xiao Yi to achieve their goals."
Duan Zhisheng analyzed that Xiao Yi didn't say much about these, but he knew that from the day Edward's cargo ship was robbed, nothing like this happened again.
Furthermore, none of the goods that Jock promised to Freeman successfully arrived at the dock. After investigation afterwards, it was finally learned that another wave of practitioners had robbed Jock's cargo ship using the same method.
Even without saying it explicitly, he could guess that Xiao Yi had done all of this. He must have dealt with it all secretly in order not to cause panic among everyone.
"Why does this guy provoke opponents like this? I know many of them. It seems that if you choose to help him, you will encounter a lot of trouble in the future."
Yingluo complained, but she did not regret her decision. She finally had the opportunity to meet her senior brother and sister and live together in the future. It was not too late to be happy.
The situation on the mercenary battlefield is changing rapidly. Now with a pair of eyes, no one can see what will happen in the future. All they can do is handle the current work well.
In H City, Xiao Yi accepted the cultivation method taught by Master Zixu. This power of cultivating the soul is really not something ordinary people can endure.
He threw his soul into the millstone, and the soul was crushed bit by bit by the millstone. The pain was magnified ten times and spread to the human body. It can no longer be described as quartering a body with five horses.
It was as if the whole person was torn apart bit by bit, and then the power of the shattered soul was reassembled to form a new soul. Such a process felt extremely long to Xiao Yi.
Three days passed by in a hurry. During these three days, Xiao Yi locked himself in the room and repeated the same thing every day.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Xiao Yi panted heavily, his back was soaked with sweat. He was exhausted from such training.
"I tried hard for three days, but it was just like smashing and reassembling an arm. It was still far from being able to temper the entire soul."
Xiao Yi thought that his willpower was very strong, but faced with such a training method, he could only persist for a while, and then repeat the cycle after he calmed down.
After practicing for three days in a row, just one arm was ground to pieces, which already cost Xiao Yi so much energy. You can imagine what would happen if all the souls were thrown into the millstone.
After coming back to his senses, Xiao Yi finished his training and went to take a cold bath first. After taking a bath, he felt much more relaxed and lay on the bed casually wearing a pair of loose pajamas.
I have to say that the effect of the cultivation method taught to him by Master Zixu is still very obvious. Xiao Yi can detect the changes in the power of his soul. The most obvious thing is that he can feel all the movements around his body while sitting here. .
The sounds of people talking, the faint sounds of breathing, including the beating of heartbeats and pulses, are all clearly within his range of perception, and he can even rely on this ability to use it in actual combat.
If fighting an opponent, Xiao Yi can predict the opponent's attack method and attack direction in advance, so as to make predictions in advance. In this way, he has the ability to protect himself in dealing with dangerous situations.
"This guy is quite leisurely and has a very fulfilling life."
Xiao Yi sensed the outside world, and Yuan Sheng walked towards his residence. Since the Tenglong Group was rectified, Yuan Sheng's shadow was rarely seen.
He invested part of his own funds and became a shareholder of Tenglong Group. The money was enough for him to spend, so he didn't have to work and travel around all day.
This time he encountered a small trouble, so he came to Xiao Yi. Except for Xiao Yi, he couldn't think of anyone else who could help in this matter.
Yuan Sheng passed the security guards at the gate. These security guards were retired soldiers. They were not arranged for work and were placed here by Xiao Yi. They had a salary of 20,000 yuan a month, plus various benefits.
At work, they must be diligent and conscientious to protect the safety here. Even if they are acquaintances, they have to pass the inspection before entering Xiao Yi's residence. Yuan Sheng passed and came to Xiao Yi's residence and opened the door to look for Xiao Yi.
"Come on, stop standing there. I have arranged for the servants to make tea in advance and wait for you to come."
Xiao Yi sensed Yuan Sheng's aura when he was 500 meters away from his home. He knew that Yuan Sheng was coming to see him and made tea in advance.
"That's strange. I didn't inform you in advance. How did you know I would come?"
"Guessed!"
