Combining Tactics

Chapter 175: Combination of tactics

Long Qilin drank enough water and looked at Qin Mu: "I'm still a little hungry..."

"I'll take you to make medicine."

Qin Mu led the dragon unicorn to the treasury, intending to buy some herbs for refining the Red Fire Spirit Pill. A Taoist priest on the other side of Yulong Lake looked over here, watching Qin Mu and the dragon unicorn leave, and muttered, "Is the dragon lion in front of the mountain gate alive? Why did it go to Yulong Lake to drink water? Who is that boy? Doesn't he know that the water of Yulong Lake is tribute to the royal family? Well, as long as he didn't jump into the lake to take a bath, it's fine. Just drink a few sips of water."

When Qin Mu passed by the Prince's Garden, he saw many scholars gathered there and heard bursts of cheers.

Qin Mu took a look from afar and saw that even the scholars from the Scholars' Residence ran over, and many people with supernatural powers from the Supernatural Power Residence also came, surrounding the gate of the Prince's Garden.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and a figure was knocked into the air, with his head falling to the ground. A voice shouted, "Another one lost!"

Qin Mu was startled. The person whose head was hit on the ground was none other than a prince of the Imperial Court. The prince was the son of the prince. Who would dare to be so cruel?

"Let me learn from you!"

A girl's voice came from the crowd. Qin Mu had already walked far away, but suddenly he heard a loud noise. A girl in green flew out backwards and crashed through the wall of Hanguang Palace not far in front of him with a click, leaving only a pair of slender legs exposed.

"It seems to be a princess..."

Qin Mu turned around and looked at the crowd, thinking: "This move is somewhat familiar, it is Brother Bashan's fighting method."

Bashan Jijiu created a unique combat technique, combining combat techniques with magical powers, which is more powerful than combat techniques or magic alone. It is this pioneering move that made Bashan Jijiu a leader-level strongman. No one in the world today can surpass his attainments in combat techniques.

The only shortcoming of combat skills is that the moves are not as flexible and changeable as pure combat skills or spells. This is also the reason why Bashan Jijiu, although he has reached the level of a leader, has not been able to go further.

"Could it be Sister Yuxiu? Why did she fight with the prince and princess?"

Long Qilin was so hungry that his steps were weak and his belly was shriveled. Qin Mu suppressed the urge to watch the fight and continued to walk to the treasury to buy some herbs. The treasury pharmacist gave him the herbs and then he saw the huge beast behind Qin Mu and stared at it.

Qin Mu brought Long Qilin back along the same route. On the way, he analyzed the medicinal properties of the herbs and refined them into a furnace of Red Fire Elixir.

Long Qilin ate it quickly. He was not full after one furnace of elixirs and looked at him eagerly. Qin Mu had to refine another furnace and finally fed this huge creature.

Long Qilin was full of energy, following him, and said with a smile: "If you have any problems in the future, just tell me, I am very good at fighting."

Qin Mu shook his head and walked towards the Prince's Garden. Hu Ling'er sneered, "You don't even dare to hit a cow, and you still dare to say that you can fight?"

Long Qilin suddenly became listless.

There were still a huge crowd of people in front of the Prince's Garden, and even more people. I heard a scholar say, "Is there no one in the Prince's Garden who can defeat her? Ever since the Seventh Princess came back from her training outside, she seems to have changed into a different person, and her skills have improved rapidly."

"Combining magic and combat skills, plus the royal Nine Dragons Emperor's Art, the Seventh Princess can basically sweep across the Prince's Garden. I wonder if she can go to the Scholar's Residence and the Divine Power Residence to block the door?"

"I can't say about Shentongju, but I'm afraid it won't work for Shiziju. After all, that devil is in Shiziju."

"Yes. I haven't seen that devil for three months. He is probably dead outside. This can be regarded as getting rid of a big scourge for Shiziju."

"That demon's ability may not be better than that of the Seventh Princess."

…

"Get out of the way, everyone!"

Many scholars only felt a commotion coming from behind. They turned around and looked with a dazed look. They saw a huge creature that was half dragon and half unicorn moving its body and pushing aside the scholars who were blocking the way. Some scholars were squeezed by the dragon and unicorn and could not stand. They were shaken and flew out of the crowd.

This huge beast pushed aside the crowd and squeezed all the way to the gate of the Prince's Garden, making a path. It stunned all the scholars and made them feel terrified.

Even though the royal family in the Prince's Garden were well-informed, they couldn't help but stare in amazement when they saw this majestic dragon unicorn.

Long Qilin shook his body, shook his fur, turned around and said with a smile: "Sir, these ignorant people have made way for us. Please come in."

Qin Mu walked to the gate of the Prince's Courtyard and scolded, "Too ostentatious, too ostentatious! Don't do this again! Brothers and sisters, I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

The expressions on everyone's faces froze.

Qin Mu looked towards the prince's garden and saw Ling Yuxiu, who had proclaimed himself the Five Stars Divine Treasure, fighting with Prince Min Yue, another scholar selected by Bashan's chief priest. After a few moves, Prince Min Yue could not withstand Ling Yuxiu's amazing explosive power and was knocked away.

Ling Yuxiu broke through the Five Stars Divine Treasure, with nine dragons circling in front and behind him. He looked truly heroic and in high spirits.

Qin Mu secretly praised her. After Ling Yuxiu's trip to the Golden Palace of Loulan, her cultivation and strength improved rapidly. In these three months, she had gained an overwhelming advantage over other scholars.

Obviously, after blocking the door of the Golden Palace, she practiced diligently and hard, and made the Nine Dragon Emperor Art more profound, making up for the weakness of her unstable foundation.

Bashan Jijiu taught students in accordance with their aptitude. Different from what the Imperial College students of Taixue Academy taught, he specifically cultivated Ling Yuxiu based on her weaknesses, and finally allowed her to achieve tremendous growth.

However, Qin Mu looked at the Prince's Garden, which had also been nearly half demolished by the princess. He wondered who she had learned such violence from.

"The cattle herder!"

When Ling Yuxiu saw Qin Mu, her eyes lit up. She waved to the royal children in the Prince's Garden and said with a smile, "Let's not fight today. We'll decide the winner another day." After that, she walked towards Qin Mu.

Qin Mu praised: "Sister Yuxiu, I haven't seen you for more than a month, and your skills have become even more powerful."

Ling Yuxiu complained: "Where have you been these days? I'm really worried."

She quickly added, "Teacher Bashan is also worried about you! I don't know, the chief priest resigned, and the new chief priest is not Bashan, but the frozen man who was rescued from the Dragon Palace in Yongjiang, Daxu by General Xiao Qin and I."

"Iceman?"

Qin Mu's heart moved slightly, could it be Gu Li Nuan?

Ling Yuxiu saw that there were still a lot of people here, all looking at them. After all, she was still shy, so she whispered, "There are too many people here, let's go to my room and talk."

Qin Mu followed her and nodded. The two of them walked towards the Prince's Garden. Suddenly, a figure flashed and a handsome young man appeared beside them. He said with a sullen face, "Seventh sister, how can a man enter a girl's room casually? Let's go to my room."

Ling Yuxiu blushed slightly and whispered yes.

Ling Yushu said with a dark face: "Mr. Qin, please."

Qin Mu was puzzled, wondering how he had offended the prince. The look in his eyes when he was looking at him seemed as if he wanted to eat him.

They arrived at the residence of Prince Yuan Ling Yushu, only to see that it was arranged like a garden in the south of the Yangtze River, very elegant. Although the rockery was not as high as a mountain, it had flowing water; although the garden was not as big as a forest, it had winding paths leading to secluded places. It was many times better than the residence of scholars.

This place is like a small palace, with palace maids coming and going, serving diligently.

Most of these palace maids are also people with supernatural powers. Not only are they beautiful, but they are also very powerful.

Ling Yushu led them to the pavilion, where the scenery was beautiful and the terrain was open. A palace maid came forward with an incense burner, placed it beside the pavilion, inserted incense and lit it, and the fragrance wafted.

There was another sound of piano coming from somewhere. The sound was slow and the melody was long, like two old men playing chess leisurely. It took a while for one or two notes to be played, which made people's hearts calm down easily.

"The Second Prince is truly a man of refined taste." Qin Mu exclaimed in admiration.

Ling Yushu's expression eased a little, and he said, "Seventh sister is going to the frontier, and I would like to thank Dr. Qin for taking care of me these days. Seventh sister has told me about your experience in the Golden Palace of Loulan. Knowing that you have rescued my sister many times, Yushu is grateful in his heart."

Ling Yuxiu laughed and said, "The cowherd was very powerful. I thought he was dead and I cried in front of the wizard of the Golden Palace."

Ling Yushu's eyes trembled. Did she cry? She never said anything about this.

"It's okay, it's just friendship between classmates. My sister's cat died and she cried for a while." Ling Yushu thought to himself.

"We also met two elders who were herding cattle. They praised me for being sensible and were very satisfied with me." Ling Yuxiu said with a smile.

Ling Yushu's eyes twitched again. Already meeting the elders? Seventh sister hadn't mentioned this either!

Ling Yuxiu said excitedly: "Second brother, Bashan Jijiu is indeed powerful. This time when I took us out, my strength has greatly improved, and you have seen it. If Bashan Jijiu can take me and the cowherd on a few more trips, you will not be able to beat me!"

Ling Yushu shook his head and said, "I have inquired about it. The next time Bashan Jijiu goes on a long journey, he will bring a few other candidates with him."

Ling Yuxiu was a little disappointed.

Ling Yushu looked at Qin Mu and said, "Father appointed Gu Li Nuan as the chief priest. I heard that you and Gu Li Nuan had a grudge. After Gu Li Nuan became the chief priest, he also asked the Imperial Academy at the Imperial College about you."

Ling Yuxiu smiled and said, "I know the grudge between them. Gu Li Nuan's Shao Bao sword was cheated away by the cattle herder, so she bears some grudge."

Ling Yushu said, "Dr. Qin, you'd better return the Shaobao Sword to Gu Li Nuan. This man is from the magic sect and is a great master in the magic sect. He has always been petty. I can't say anything about my father appointing him as the chief priest, but his mind is far worse than the previous chief priest. I can't guarantee that he won't make things difficult for you. I can host a meeting between you and him to resolve the grievances between you. I think he should give me this face."

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "According to the rules of our Daxu, you don't have to return what you have cheated."

Ling Yushu smiled and said, "But this is not Daxu. He is the chief priest. It would be easy for him to control you."

Qin Mu thought for a moment and said, "I heard from Gu Li Nuan that he is the Crown Prince's Guardian. The Crown Prince's Guardian should be the Crown Prince's teacher when he was young, right? Second Prince, do you think Gu Li Nuan will give you face?"

Ling Yushu's heart was slightly shaken.

Qin Mu continued, "Second Prince, if he is willing to resolve the grudge, it would be fine for me to break the rules of Daxu and return the Shaobao Sword to him. But I think that even if I return the Shaobao Sword to him, he will not give you face and resolve the grudge. Moreover, why aren't you worried that he will make things difficult for you, Second Prince?"
