Swept Star journey

Except for Tianyuan Shengzun and Su Yan, the congratulatory gifts presented by the other members of the Tianyuan Holy Pagoda Alliance are nothing more than some slightly more precious materials, which are of little value except for collection and family heritage.

But Tianyuan Shengzun is different. The congratulatory gift he presented is a thousand top-grade star stones. It is the bottom of each box.

Even though one thousand is not much, but for Zhao Yang, a star plunderer who has just entered the fourth level, one thousand top-grade star stones is enough for him to practice for hundreds of years.

Of course, it's not like Su Yan who cultivates on top-grade star stones all the time, otherwise even 10,000 top-grade star stones are not enough.

When all the guests at the meeting heard Tianyuan Shengzun's congratulatory gift, they were all amazed in their hearts, secretly sighing that he is indeed the strongest in Tianyuan, and I am afraid that only Shengzun can have such a generous gift.

What caused a commotion after that was naturally Su Yan's congratulatory gift. Of course, what he offered was not a high-grade star stone, and if he didn't have enough, how could he give an extra gift?

What he presented was nothing but 200,000 Star Sea Warlord slave legions. Zhao Yang had just been promoted, and his own slave legion had not yet been created. The Lord will be short of money.

Although Zhao Yang is backed by the Sihe Zhao Clan, it is impossible for the Sihe Zhao Clan to let him ask for it. After all, the Sihe Zhao Clan has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, and there are countless clan members under his command. All of these require resources to be cultivated, so naturally it is impossible Spending excessive resources on Zhao Yang.

What's more, before the promotion, the Zhao family of Sihe had already paid a small Xinghai enslaved world for Zhao Yang, as well as opening spirits and some precious resources to promote the promotion of the Lord of Star Grabbers. The cost was already huge.

And after he was promoted to the fourth level, the Zhao family provided another 500 million middle-grade star stones to Zhao Yang for him to build his own star-grabbing holy tower. So far, the Sihe Zhao family has made it clear that they will no longer Provide Zhao Yang with other resources.

But even so, Zhao Yang still needs to repay the family's debts. These debts are so huge that even a fourth-level star plunderer will need tens of thousands of years to pay them off.

Therefore, although it has been more than two hundred years since he was promoted to the fourth level, Zhao Yang has not created his own slave army for a long time, not because of unwillingness, but because of poverty.

That's right, he was poor, and he owed a lot of debts. Except for the five thousand top-grade star stones rewarded by the Tianyuan Holy Pagoda Alliance, he was almost empty.

Therefore, the congratulatory gifts from Tianyuan Shengzun and Su Yan can be said to have solved his urgent needs.

For this, Zhao Yang was naturally very grateful.

………

After a while, seeing that there were no other guests coming, Mrs. Zhao directly announced that the wedding was in progress.

Sitting on the guest seats at the front and side of Sihe Square, Su Yan only heard the sound of gongs and drums below, and then a slim woman in a red wedding dress was greeted.

Seeing this woman appearing on the stage, Su Yan just cast his eyes slightly fixed, there was no abnormality on the surface, but he was muttering secretly in his heart.

"It's her? No wonder Yangzi was a little weird when he asked her to pick him up. It turned out that he had intended it a long time ago."

Below, although the bride is wearing a red hijab, it is just a piece of ordinary cloth, how can it stop the existence of Su Yan and the others in such a series, the bride's face is immediately clear at a glance.

And this person Su Yan is not unfamiliar, it is none other than the woman who was introduced by Zhao Yang when Su Yan went to Tianyuan Luoxing Academy.

In his mind, a look of interest appeared on Su Yan's face, and then he turned his gaze to the bridegroom officer to one side.

Below, Zhao Yang, who was also wearing a red wedding dress, felt Su Yan's gaze. He turned his head and looked at Su Yan, and then winked a little, indicating that Su Yan was not what he thought.

In this regard, Su Yan gave him a clear look, and the implied meaning was very obvious.

"I understand, I understand, you don't need to explain, brother understands."

Seeing this, Zhao Yang rolled his eyes helplessly, knowing that no matter how much he explained, it would be useless.

………

Just when the atmosphere of celebration was surging in the ancient city of Sihe, in the boundless sea of ​​stars, in a remote corner, in a gray world of the sea of ​​stars, cruel battles were taking place in every corner of the world.

In the northern part of the mainland, under a huge hill, the sound of killing and felling was howling, the ground was stained red with blood, and the stumps and broken arms covered a radius of several miles. It was a vivid scene of the end of the world.

There are obvious differences in the size of the two sides in the battle. Although both sides are humanoid creatures, one side is close to five meters in size, with black horns on the top of the head, and a huge mouth and nose. There is heat rising from it during the swinging battle, which is very similar to the Chinese oriental world. A kind of "bull-headed man" of the subterranean people.

The other side is larger than the other, each of them is only about 1.34 meters, and they are holding wooden spears in both hands. They look so fragile in front of the bull-headed monsters on the opposite side.

And precisely because of this, the situation in this battle is one-sided. Although the weaker side has the numerical advantage, it can't cause much damage to the bull-headed monster at all.

As time slowly passed, the weak creatures retreated steadily, but in just half an hour, their number dropped from about 10,000 to less than 3,000.

And looking at the bull-headed monster side, after half an hour, their number was reduced by just over a thousand, and there are still more than 3,000 at this moment.

In the case of the original numerical advantage, the battle situation was one-sided. Now that the numbers of the two sides are similar, the pressure on the weak creature side can be imagined.

Not unexpectedly, not long after, there was a sharp whining sound from the weak creature.

And after hearing this sharp sound, these weak creature army no longer continued to entangle with the bull-headed monster, but began to retreat rapidly, fleeing towards the back of the hill.

That's right, this is exactly their retreat slogan. After knowing that the situation of the battle is not good, the commander of the weak creature's side began to quickly summon the army to retreat.

Seeing this, the bull-headed monsters looked up to the sky and howled loudly, wanting to catch up and kill them all. However, although their frontal combat capabilities were strong, their speed was very slow, and they could not effectively catch up with the fleeing weak army.

But even so, the army of weak creatures still suffered heavy losses. How could it end well if they withdrew before the battle? Originally, there were 3,000 of them at the moment, but when they completely left the battle circle, there were only 2,000 left. Almost a third was lost.

But after leaving the battle circle. The bull-headed monsters in the rear did not pursue them any more, which allowed the team to survive.

After leaving the battle circle, the army of weak creatures all looked gloomy, and their morale dropped to freezing point.

In this regard, the commander in front is not surprised. With such a huge loss, I am afraid that no one can be happy.

Following the commander, the remnants of the army continued to march north along a concealed route.

Half a month later, on the outskirts of a primitive dense forest in the extreme north of the mainland, an army of only about 1,800 people appeared here, and then all the soldiers in this army showed joy,

Finally, the previous gloomy look was changed, and there was some anger in his eyes.

There is no other reason, just because this dense forest is the home of their remnant army, and their tribe is established in the depths of this dense forest.

With joy, the army swarmed into this primitive dense forest.

In the depths of the dense forest, a stockade made of various giant trees is located here. The residents in this stockade are none other than the weak creatures with a size of over one meter. At this moment, the remaining tens of thousands of people in this stockade He was staring expectantly outside the stockade.

Strictly speaking, it is the exit location of the village.

Because the stockade had received news of the return of their own army that had gone out before, the residents in the stockade were all looking forward to the good news that the army that went out for an expedition would bring good news.

But the next moment, all that remained in their eyes was deep fear.

Seeing the sparse crowd of more than a thousand people appearing at the gate of the village, at this moment, I am afraid that anyone can think of the answer to this expedition.

In an instant, the whole village wailed.

What these residents are looking forward to is not only the good news, but more, they are waiting for the triumphant return of the army. After all, the 10,000 troops who went to the expedition are all male residents in the entire village. Among them is the father. There are sons and husbands.

And at this moment, how many of them have stayed outside forever?

At the gate of the village, a male resident with a cane stared blankly at the remaining army outside the gate. Even though his eyes had scanned the army dozens of times, he still didn't see the familiar figure.

In an instant, its eye sockets were moist, and it knew exactly what this meant.

Click!

The crutches fell weakly, without the support of the crutches, and soon its body also fell down. It had a huge injury to its right leg, and it had already lost the ability to walk freely. At this moment, without the support of the crutches, it could only fall down on the ground.

But after falling down, it didn't have any intention of struggling to stand up. It was lying on the ground blankly, the tears in its eyes dripping like water drops, and at the same time, a deep smile began to emerge from its mouth.

"Ah……"

"hehe"

"Hehehe..."

Deep and crazy laughter came from its mouth, it was obviously so desolate and scary, but at this moment, no one came to comfort or support it.

It's not because he is not popular in the village, but because at this moment in the whole village, such scenes can be seen everywhere.

The male resident with his head bowed and his legs injured was laughing wildly, and the memories of the past kept circulating in his mind.

Its name is Hu Wei, and it was originally just an ordinary Qinghe tribe, who should have lived a carefree life of logging and seeking a spouse, but all of this was broken on that day fifty years ago.

Fifty years ago, the peace of Qinghe Realm, which was originally aloof from the rest of the world, was shattered. A huge crack was carved out of the original blue sky by a terrifying starry giant hand.

In the same year, with the continuous expansion of this crack, endless gray air flow began to pour into Qinghejie. Under the erosion of this huge gray airflow, the environment of Qinghejie began to deteriorate rapidly, and this is far from over.

In the second year, when the gray air current turned the entire Qinghe Realm into a gray world, at the same time batches of bull-headed monsters in the cracks began to invade the Qinghe Realm one after another.

However, in just a few years, more than half of the Qinghe tribe in the Qinghe Realm were killed by the bull-headed monsters. Seeing this, several large Qinghe tribes who finally felt that something was wrong began to appeal to the entire Qinghe Realm The clansmen rose up to resist.

Then it was because of this that Hu Yi began his miserable life.

Thirty-two years ago, its grandfather died in the battle with the bull-headed monster. Eighteen years ago, its father also died in the battle with the bull-headed monster. He was cut off in the battlefield, and since then he can only rely on crutches to walk.

Under such circumstances, it could no longer continue to participate in the battle, and could only be replaced by its younger brother, but just now, it did not find its younger brother among the returning warriors, so it completely collapsed.

Originally, the death of grandfather and father, and younger brother were its last spiritual sustenance. Now, the last sustenance has also dissipated in the battlefield. Under such circumstances, how can it not collapse?

But just when he thought it would become a surviving humanoid puppet.

Instead, he suddenly struggled to get up from the ground, and tremblingly used his two crutches to forcibly stand up from the ground, and then walked towards the depths of the village with pattering steps.

In the eyes of outsiders, at this moment, he is already in a daze, and no one has come to comfort him.

However, what outsiders don't know is that at this moment, his eyes are full of the last madness, and at the same time, he is still muttering something. If someone approaches at this moment, he will definitely hear the crackling sound of his madness.

"That sign, that's right, no matter what curse it is, no matter what it whispers, I want to activate it, I want all those monsters to die, I want to avenge my grandfather, father and brother, hahahaha..."

"No one can stop me, I want revenge, I want to kill all those monsters..."

………

With endless mutterings and endless madness, Hu Yan tremblingly walked towards the depths of the stockade. The direction he was going was his residence. Once, there lived a whole family of them, full of life. Seven or eight people, and now, except for it, there is no one there.

Walking into the house, it frantically rushed into the depths of the room, which used to belong to its grandfather's bedroom, flipping around, as if looking for something.

"Where is the thing? Where is it? Come out for me..."

"Where's the brand? Call me, don't you like to seduce people the most on weekdays? Why aren't you making a fuss today?"

...

Amidst the deep roar, the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets could be heard continuously in the room.

Soon, a look of joy flashed in Hu Yan's eyes.

"Found it, finally found it..."

Excited, it limped out of the room, and in its hand was holding a wooden sign.

It was a mini wooden sign glowing purple.
