From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

Roar!

Thick white steam billowed from the nostrils of the three-legged flower ox, its eyes bloodshot and filled with rage as it stared intently at Chen Shi.

With a low growl, it was about to launch another attack.

"Brother Ox! Wait a minute!"

Looking back, after a struggle, they had pushed the three-legged bull a hundred feet away, where the others should not have noticed them.

Chen Shi reached out to stop him and quickly said.

"We are not enemies. I have always stood by Brother Yang."

Upon hearing the words "Brother Sheep," the three-legged spotted cow paused slightly.

Yes, Chen Shi and Qilin were originally acquainted.

Roar!

But then, a roar erupted, making him even more agitated.

Just moments ago he was befriending the Qilin, but in the blink of an eye he summoned other humans to harm it. In the eyes of the three-legged flower ox, Chen Shi was nothing short of a treacherous human.

What's most hateful is that they even stopped it from going to save the Qilin.

"A wise man submits to circumstances. In the current situation, what difference would it make if you joined me? It's less about saving the Qilin and more about sending him to his death."

Chen Shi's expression was serious as he explained in a deep voice.

Roar!

The three-legged spotted ox let out another low growl, completely ignoring Chen Shi's explanation. It was willing to die for the Qilin, even if it meant dying in battle, it was better than living a life of dishonor.

"Foolish! If you die, who will save the Qilin?"

The three-legged spotted cow, which was about to charge forward again, stopped abruptly upon hearing this.

Looking up at Chen Shi, could there be a way to save the Qilin?

"These people are capturing the Qilin to present to the Emperor, who is said to use the Qilin's essence blood to refine medicine. If the Qilin dies, it will be useless, so these people will only capture the Qilin and will never kill it."

Seeing that the three-legged spotted ox had calmed down a bit, Chen Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and continued speaking.

"The situation is hopeless right now, but that doesn't mean there's no chance later. Our strength alone isn't enough. I'll gather information here, and you hurry and summon your companions. We might still be able to rescue Qilin on our way to the capital."

roar~

After hearing Chen Shi's words, the three-legged spotted ox let out another low growl, but the sound was no longer as violent; it seemed to be asking for confirmation.

"Why would I lie to you? If I wanted to harm you, I wouldn't have pushed you here and said all this to you. I would have just killed you with those people."

Chen Shi snorted coldly, looking completely self-righteous.

The three-legged spotted ox remained silent for a moment, then looked up in the direction of the qilin, angrily shaking its head. It then turned and galloped away, disappearing into the depths of the forest in the blink of an eye.

Since the Qilin's life is temporarily out of danger, we should do as Chen Shi suggested and gather our companions to rescue it again.

Watching the three-legged spotted cow hurriedly leave, Chen Shi stood there, a slight smile appearing on his lips.

really.

He was right after all; the Qilin had a considerable force behind it.

It's true that he intended to save the Qilin, but his main goal was to use the Qilin and the forces behind it to restrain the Chilong.

In order to save the Qilin, the three-legged flower ox went to find helpers. In this way, Chen Shi was able to take the opportunity to find out about the forces behind the Qilin.

Then, by offering to rescue the Qilin as a condition, he persuaded these mythical beasts to help him restrain the Chilong, and everything fell into place naturally.

"I hope you won't let me down."

Do your best and leave the rest to fate; whether it succeeds or not, we'll only know later.

Chen Shi breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly turned around and went back.

When they returned, the battle was over. There was no suspense; the beasts had been completely slaughtered. The Qilin, whether injured or subdued by some means, lay limp on the ground.

However, as Chen Shi just said, his life is not in danger.

Chen Shi did not immediately step forward. After a moment's hesitation, he temporarily hid and observed from the outside.

Now that the Qilin has been subdued, the question is, who will it belong to? After all, there are three forces involved at this time.

The three of them, including Gu Tingshu, looked at each other, returning to the situation they had just started, and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.

"Nephew Feng Linxian, our two families are old friends."

After a moment, Gu Tingshu spoke first, looking at Feng Lin.

"It doesn't matter whether our family presents the Qilin to the Emperor or not, but it absolutely cannot fall into the hands of those sorcerers from the Fufeng Society."

"What does Uncle Shi mean?"

"Let's join forces and eliminate these evil people first."

"...Uncle is absolutely right."

Feng Lin pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"If that's the case, then what are we waiting for?"

With a loud shout, Gu Tingshu immediately led his men towards Fufeng Society.

"superior!"

The elder of the Fufeng Association let out a cold snort, and without the slightest hesitation or fear, led his men to meet them.

Feng Lin stood to the side, a cold smile playing on his lips, and waved to his subordinates.

The next moment, the men from the Marquis of Dingyuan's mansion also rushed forward, but when they engaged in close combat, they did not attack the Fufeng Association, but instead went straight for the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion!

"You bastard! How dare you join forces with the evil people of the Fufeng Society!"

Gu Tingshu gave a cold shout, staring at Feng Lin with a gloomy gaze.

At the same time, the army of the Marquis of Jing'an reacted quickly and engaged in battle with the army of the Marquis of Dingyuan.

While it was true that Feng Lin was feigning deception, Gu Tingshu was shrewd and calculating; how could he so easily believe Feng Lin?

In fact, he had long anticipated that the Marquis of Dingyuan's mansion and the Fufeng clan would join forces.

After all, among the three parties, the Jing'an Marquis's Mansion has the greatest power, and this place is Yongqiu Mountain, which is Jing'an Marquis's territory. Only by joining forces can the Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion and the Fufeng Society have a chance of winning.

"Go ahead and fight."

Chen Shi remained hidden to the side, showing no intention of revealing himself, and observed the development of the situation.

The more chaotic the better; maybe he can find a chance to rescue the Qilin. If that happens, it will save him a lot of trouble.

All three sides were determined to obtain the Qilin, leading to an exceptionally fierce battle.

With the Jing'an Marquis's mansion being the most powerful, they could easily defeat either side individually. However, facing two opponents at once was proving somewhat difficult.

For now, it seems that even if the Marquis of Jing'an's family wins in the end, it will likely be a Pyrrhic victory.

However, Gu Tingshu didn't care. As long as he could obtain the Qilin, this sacrifice was nothing. Besides, this was Yongqiu Mountain!

The longer it drags on, the more advantageous it will be for him.

And so, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn passes.

Both sides have suffered considerable losses, but neither side shows any sign of giving up. The fierce battle continues, with neither side willing to back down.

Tap tap tap!

Just then, the situation changed again.

Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, another group of people appeared.

Zhang Henian!

Zhang Henian led a thousand troops stationed at Yongqiu Mountain straight there.

With a force of a thousand, and being fresh blood, they instantly took control of the situation upon their arrival.

"Haha, you actually dare to be enemies of my Jing'an Marquis's Mansion in Yongqiu Mountain, how arrogant!"

Zhang Henian's army had already surrounded everyone. Gu Tingshu laughed twice, a smug look on his face.

With such an absolute advantage, no one could rival him.

"Zhang Henian! Take all these people down! But kill anyone who resists!"

Since that's the case, why waste time arguing? Gu Tingshu's face darkened, and he gave the order.

Zhang Henian stood still, without moving.
