Speed ​​Pass starts with choosing a hunter

Chapter 277 Becoming a foster father
squeak
The sound of boots stepping on snow could be heard in the snowfield.

It snowed heavily for another five days. The deepest part of the snow pit was even half a person's height. If you were not careful, you would fall into it.

These are naturally not difficult for Bai Yuan.

After leaving Cuishui County, he continued his life as a monster hunter.

Perhaps it was the time to spawn monsters, and there were a lot more monsters near Cuishui County than usual, or maybe he just happened to avoid those powerful demon sect members, who knows.

As for those monsters who accidentally bumped into him and wanted to swallow him, Bai Yuan of course turned them all into spirits and roasted meat without any hesitation. Lu Yu implicitly owed him a favor.

In this way, although he was isolated from the world, he had enough food, and his tiger-skin coat made him look like a hunter in the mountains.

"No wonder old man Dong said that Beiyuan always has to bring a hammer when he urinates."

Bai Yuan couldn't help but shiver. Even his strong body couldn't withstand the cold.

He simply found a cave and lit a bonfire with the flint he carried with him.

The blazing fire warmed his body again.

He rubbed his hands and looked at the panel.

[Name: Bai Yuan]

[Occupation: Monster Hunter, Sword Ghost, Boxer, Soul Cooker, Skin Painter]

[Skills: Divine Palace Skill, Chaos Blood Subduing Tiger Knife (Master), Manggu Zhuha Skill (Proficient), Demon Performing Skill (Master), Soul Taking (Legend), Soul Stealing Technique (Legend).]

[Strength Points: 0]

After a period of hard work, he finally upgraded his Bloody Tiger Subduing Blade to the master level.

Not only has the strength increased greatly, but more importantly, it has brought him one step closer to becoming a legend.

The grade of the Chaos Blood Subduing Tiger Blade is too high. The skills of the same grade are almost all the secret skills of the big clans and sects like Xuanyang. It seems impossible to use a stone from a mountain to polish a jade, so Bai Yuan chose to grind for a legendary level of the Chaos Blood Subduing Tiger Blade.

Fortunately, there are enough monsters in Dingzhou.
Bai Yuan is very satisfied with the current progress.

Once he was warmer, he was ready to continue his journey.

Being able to achieve today's achievements is inseparable from self-discipline.

Just as Bai Yuan was daydreaming, the flames suddenly shook, or to be more precise, the ground was shaking slightly.

Bai Yuan frowned slightly.

It's a war horse!
He made the judgment almost the moment the shaking appeared. It was the unique sound of a galloping war horse.

Any horse that can gallop so fast in the snow must be a demon horse.

So there was a group of demon cavalry not far from him.

After guessing this news, Bai Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly.

Just
He scooped up a handful of soil to put out the campfire and slowly stood up.

This place is still within the scope of Cuishui County. It is impossible for Lu Yu, that kid, to have such a large team of demon cavalry.

So there are only two possibilities.

1. The Fang family’s demon cavalry passed by.

2. The enemy's demon cavalry.

Bai Yuan is more inclined to the second possibility, which is most likely the demon cavalry of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

This is clearly an attempt to destroy Cuishui County.

Lu Yu owed him a lot of debts. If he died like this, no one would pay the debts.

Bai Yuan felt that Lu Yu should at least ask him to be his godfather this time, so that the two of them would be barely even.

Cuishui County.

"Demon Cavalry!"

A member of the Fang family, covered in blood and gasping for breath, broke into the county government office.

Lu Yu stood up suddenly.

"What happened?"

"The demon cavalry of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce is coming to attack us."

Lu Yu's face turned ugly in an instant.

The Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce is about to completely break off relations.

Although the last layer of paper between the Fang family and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce has long since disappeared.

In the beginning, the four parties still retained a bit of dignity, but as they gained a firm foothold, the conflicts between them became increasingly fierce, and even sieges occurred.

The Xuanyang court only cares about whether these forces heading north can recover lost territory. As for internal strife, they don't care at all. Now that the situation in the north has eased, they are even happy for these forces to attrition each other so that no one can pose a threat to the court.

Lu Yu's eyes flickered.

If he runs away, all the business he has done in the Fang family for so many years will vanish into thin air.

If they don't run away from the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, the demon cavalry will not be able to be resisted by Cuishui City at all.

"Take away all the valuables in the city that can be taken away, and burn everything that cannot be taken away!"

Lu Yu spoke to the Fang family members standing beside him.

"Yes!"

The man took the order and left.

Lu Yu has made his decision.

Compared with the future, life is more important.

The worst that could happen is that I can start over again, or just change family and start over again.

If you lose your life, then everything is over.

Soon, thick smoke was floating everywhere in Cuishui City. The Fang family members acted very quickly.

Lu Yu stood in a two-story building in the county government office and looked at everything in the city.

The moment he sat down to make his choice, it meant that it would be difficult for him to make a name for himself in the Fang family. The Fang family would not allow a son-in-law to make a mistake, after all, his last name was not Fang.

Just as he was feeling melancholy, another member of the Fang family trotted up to him.

There seemed to be something wrong with the expressions of the Fang family members.

Lu Yu frowned: "What happened again?"

"Those demon cavalry seem to have retreated."

“Retreat?!”

Lu Yu widened his eyes in disbelief. He had already made plans to escape, but those people retreated.

"Fuck, put out the fire!"

In the mountains and forests five miles away from Cuishui City.

Bai Yuan hid in the dark and watched the retreating group of demon cavalry.

He saved his adopted son's life again.

This team of demon cavalry was led by a master of perception, and with the help of 300 demon cavalry, Lu Xiaoyu couldn't escape. No matter how good his Qinggong was, could he outrun the demon horse?
Not to mention there is also a very capable sentient martial artist.

Bai Yuan set up a poison array on the road that the demon cavalry had to pass, which frightened the demon cavalry and made them dare not move forward.

But this method cannot last too long. At most half a day, the poison array will dissipate, but those demon cavalry will not give up easily.

He looked at the departing demon cavalry and retreated quietly.

"Someone is outside the city asking to see you. He says his surname is Bai."

Lu Yu was ecstatic.

He was still wondering why those demon cavalry suddenly retreated, and now it seems that the person who took action was Bai Yuan.

He immediately went downstairs and went to the city gate to greet him in person.

Soon, the gate of Cuishui City opened a gap wide enough for one person to pass through.

"Big brother!"

Lu Yu was even more delighted when he saw Bai Yuan's face.

Bai Yuan: "Add money."

Of course Lu Yu knew what the two words "Bai Yuan" meant, but he had so many debts now that he was not afraid of being asked to pay them off, so he just paid them off first.

If possible, he would like to follow the example of the talent in the previous dynasty who liked to find someone to be his godfather, so that all his debts would be forgiven.

"Don't worry, I'll remember everything."

Seeing Lu Yu patting his chest so loudly that it shook the sky, Bai Yuan then walked into Cuishui Mansion.

"Are you ready?"

"Prepare?"

Lu Yu was puzzled when he heard Bai Yuan's words.

Bai Yuan rolled his eyes: "Of course I'm ready to run."

Lu Yu: “.”

Well, we still have to burn it.

Bai Yuan only scared away those demon cavalrymen temporarily. Did he really think he was Kui Dong, who could kill three hundred demon cavalrymen by himself?
Lu Yu was decisive. He immediately ordered the Fang family to burn the city and fled eastward with more than a hundred people.

Bai Yuan Bai Yuan is not his biological father, so of course he cannot continue to protect him.

There is some sentimentality, but also the other thing is that I don’t want my investment to go down the drain.

After Lu Yu returns, the situation between the Fang family and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce will only get worse, and a large-scale melee is very likely to break out.

However, Bai Yuan is not optimistic about the Fang family.

Although the relationship between the Fang family and the Tianxuan Sect is unclear, if the Cao Gang and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce join forces to deal with the Fang family, the Tianxuan Sect will most likely not intervene.

After all, if the Fang family is eliminated, the Tianxuan Sect will find a reason to annex the other seven continents.

In the final analysis, it’s all about interests and calculations.

However, these things are not something Bai Yuan can control.

He was just an ordinary monster hunter who took on the job of hunting monsters and barbarians.

The situation in Dingzhou became visibly chaotic.

Bai Yuan visited many cities again.

Most likely, they are engaged in a great battle, not between the Demon Sect, but the Xuanyang people themselves, and it shows signs of intensifying.

Bai Yuan's rescue of Lu Yu just happened to ignite the fuse that triggered the war between the Fang family and the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce.

For those clans and families, their own interests are much more important than national hatred or family feuds.

The sect is permanent, but the dynasty is changing.

A big family like the Fang family has a history even longer than the Li Dynasty, and they have long been accustomed to the changes of dynasties.

Even if Xuan Yang died, the worst that could happen was that he would surrender to the new emperor and still enjoy endless wealth and glory.

If expanding their own power is their primary goal.

The Demon Sect seemed very happy to see this happen, and intentionally or unintentionally concentrated its forces in the north to fight against the Tianxuan Sect, making it impossible for the Tianxuan Sect to get involved in the chaos in the south.

Bai Yuan could clearly feel that the concentration of demonic energy seemed to be getting higher and higher recently.

This is not a good sign.

According to the Tianxin Sect, demonic energy is bestowed by the Demon God. The more demonic energy there is, the stronger the power of the Demon God will be.

The Demon Sect once summoned the Demon God to defeat the Zhenbei Army, and no one can be sure whether the Demon God will come again.

"It's better to leave this troubled place as soon as possible."

Bai Yuan thought to himself.

It’s a pity that such a good monster-killing place is wasted.

Although he didn't know what kind of existence the Demon God was, he knew that the Nine Heavens Mysterious Soldiers were really powerful.

If he encounters the Nine Heavens Mysterious Soldiers now, he will definitely die.

Compared to upgrading, life is definitely more important.

Snowflakes are falling from the sky.

It started snowing again.

Bai Yuan looked around, found a valley with less wind and snow, and lit a bonfire.

The bonfire was suppressed by the wind, the flames were almost invisible, and it was barely able to maintain burning.

"Ok?"

Bai Yuan suddenly felt a demonic aura.

There are about twenty monsters, which is a considerable force.

They gathered together, definitely to attack the Xuanyang people.

Bai Yuan stood up slowly.

Then let’s do one last vote!

Half an hour later.

All the monsters that had gathered in the valley disappeared, leaving only a large pool of blood on the ground.

This is of course Bai Yuan's work.

When the matter is over, he brushes off his clothes and leaves, leaving no merit or fame.

He killed the monster and headed straight south.

The water in Dingzhou seemed deeper than he had imagined. Since he was powerless to stop it, the best way was to stay away from it.

The affairs of the Nine Heavens Mysterious Soldiers were taken care of by the big shots like Xuan Yang, so it was not his turn to worry about it.

It has been almost three months since I left Lingzhou, and it is time to go back.
