Balliard followed the previous road all the way to the camp of the Qingchuan bandits. He sat casually on a stone and looked around from time to time.

"Are we just waiting here?"

After the fox discovered that Balliard had arrived at this place, he lost his way forward. He also knew that the legendary Jinghu Lake was not a place that ordinary people could reach, but he could enter the Jinghu Lake just by sitting still?

"Of course, the guardians of the Jade Sword should be able to observe us. If people are willing to let us in, we can naturally go in. If they are not willing, are you going to force it in? Let me say it first, I can't open the space barrier.

"

Balliard estimated that the traitor's manpower should be arriving soon, and he didn't know what kind of backup the old guy had arranged to deal with a demigod. Most of the famous demigods in the human race were sword cultivators, and sword cultivators disdained it.

Participate in court affairs, and even disdain to associate with traitors and sycophants.

"Doesn't Salva have the power to travel across the world? Why can't he use that power to cross this space barrier?"

The fox thought more than Balliard and immediately discovered a doubt.

"I am completing a test. This is a test. I can't rely on Salva's strength for everything."

Of course, Balliard would not say it. He was just worried that breaking in would anger the demigod. Although they were in the same camp, it was inevitable that the other party would not take action in anger.

"...Indeed, with the strength of the Jade Sword Guardian, we cannot act rashly. The most important point is that we don't know the Jade Sword Guardian's attitude towards us. He will believe that our purpose is to protect the Jade Sword, not

To take the jade sword away by force?"

"Let's set up camp, four people, one tent per person. I feel like we have to wait here for a long time."

Yes, why should people believe Balliard? He used Jiang Yan's appearance to ask the Guardian of the Jade Sword to help him. He himself has never appeared in front of the Guardian of the Jade Sword. Maybe they are always on guard.

What about his sneak attack?

As for explaining the purpose of your visit? Who should you tell it to? What if people take one look at the strength of these people and divert their attention? In the eyes of a demigod, some extraordinary beings who have not reached the ninth level are nothing.

…

"Someone is coming, faceless, covering his breath."

The next morning, Balliard habitually used shadows to detect the surrounding environment, and suddenly found a figure that flashed past. The figure was moving so fast that it was difficult for Balliard to follow it with his shadow vision.

"Who?"

Faceless quickly used his spell, but did not forget to ask what kind of enemy Balliard had discovered.

"Not a demigod, but not far from a demigod."

Balliard felt a familiar aura from that person, but he couldn't remember anyone in his impression who had such strength. Was he someone he knew in other world lines?

"He's the only one?"

"He's the only one."

"We should follow him."

The jackal is a little bit ready to take action. Only by fighting strong men can he become stronger. Only by assassinating strong men can he improve his reputation as a killer.

"What Jackal said is right. The man went here alone and in a hurry. He probably knew the location of Jinghu Lake and had the strength to open Jinghu Lake.

If that person enters by force

, if the guardian of the jade sword immediately closes the entrance because he is worried that we people will fish in troubled waters, it will be difficult to achieve your purpose of protecting the jade sword, Valyard."

Fox briefly analyzed what they should do now. After hearing this, Balliard also felt that it made sense. If he didn't go in with that person, then they would forcefully open the entrance to Jinghu Lake later, regardless of whether the winner was Jade Sword.

Either the guardian or the treacherous back-up man will attack them immediately.

Anyone who knows that a third party exists and gets involved after the fight between them will think that the third party wants to take advantage of it.

Moreover, the traitor's back-up man is not a demigod. Although the guardian of the jade sword is said to have become a demigod by virtue of the characteristics of the jade sword, and his combat power is one of the weakest among demigods, but a demigod is a demigod after all, not a demi-god.

Gods cannot understand the terrifying resilience of demigods.

The traitor's back-up man is not a demigod, which means he has the strength to defeat the Jade Sword Guardian and obtain the Jade Sword in a short time. Otherwise, why would he fight against the Jade Sword Guardian alone?

"That's okay."

Balliard finally nodded, and he also felt that following the man was the best choice.

Besides, the black figure discovered by Balliard looked like a man, but the hair on his body was a bit thick and still a rare red color.

He stepped on a cloud under his feet and flew quickly over Qingzhu Peak. After flying around Qingzhu Peak several times, he stopped in a woodland.

"This is it, right?"

He scratched his head, and a stick suddenly appeared in his hand. Without saying a word, he picked up the stick and hit it, but he didn't seem to hit anything.

I could only see that when he knocked the stick down, it was like knocking on the glass, and a little crack appeared in the space, and the crack continued to expand, and eventually became fragments and disappeared into light spots.

"It is truly a paradise, but this gate is too shabby to accommodate me."

The man gripped the long stick and strode into it. Balliard and others who saw this scene not far away did not care whether the man had noticed them now, so they quickly quickened their pace and followed them in.

"Your Excellency has come all the way, what do you want to learn from me?"

The man who spoke was a man that Balliard had met, Jiang Yan's father, Jiang Miao.

"Are you the Jade Sword Guardian?"

"Yes, I am the guardian of the jade sword."

Jiang Miao waved, and a sword came with the wind.

"This is the jade sword? Hand it over and I will spare your life."

"You can get it based on your ability."

Jiang Miao noticed Valliard, but he was not surprised and gave Valliard a look that probably meant he would do nothing.

"A mere demigod who has achieved success through external force dares to challenge me?"

The man seemed to be irritated by Jiang Miao. His fiery red hair grew again, his body shape also changed greatly, and the robe he was wearing was shattered into pieces. It turned out to be a monkey.

"Monkey demon?"

Sun Wukong? Only then did Balliard remember why he felt that this man's aura was a bit familiar. On the one hand, this monkey demon was the man who had fought with Kaiyang Hou before. On the other hand, there was something about this monkey demon.

The breath of Sun Wukong.

But, what are the top leaders of the Deno Empire thinking?

The leader of the imperial faction, Kaiyang Hou, formed an alliance with the fox demon clan among the demon clan, and even made a little fox demon his heir.

The traitor drives a demon king who is close to a demigod. If the traitor does not offer a price that makes this monkey demon's heart beat, this monkey demon will not only not fight with Kaiyang Hou, but also will not come to fight for the jade sword.

The demon race is called the vastaya in the world line of Baliard. These vastaya are originally extremely long-lived, and they are not good at using swords. Jade swords have little effect on them.

It's like luring wolves into the house! It would be fine if only one side lures in foreigners. The Deno Empire has three major forces, but there are already two major forces that are ready to use the power of foreigners to help them fight for power. Who can guarantee that Qingliu has no plans of his own?

This country is going to end.

"Even if I become a demigod through external force, I am still a demigod. If you don't want to die, just leave."

"Stop talking nonsense and accept your fate!"

The monkey demon picked up the stick and hit him with such force that the strong wind caused Balliard behind him to lose his balance.

Jiang Miao picked up the magic sword and fought with the monkey demon, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that Jiang Miao was at a disadvantage.

"Are we going to do something?"

The jackal couldn't stand it any longer. He originally thought there would be a fight between dragons and tigers, but he didn't expect that the so-called guardian of the jade sword was completely suppressed. His defeat was only a matter of time.

And judging by the state of the monkey demon, it seemed that he was still doing well. From time to time, his eyes would glance at Balliard and the others, wary of sneak attacks from behind.

"You can't do anything. Just watch and do nothing. If the monkey demon gets the jade sword and plans to attack us, he will say that we are the subordinates of treacherous men."

Balliard didn't believe Jiang Miao, so he said that the legendary Guardian of the Jade Sword could deceive others with his strength, but it would be a fool's errand to deceive him.

Balliard has seen more than thirty demigods, and he has fought against them more than once. He can easily tell the difference between Jiang Miao and demigods. Jiang Miao only has some demigod characteristics.

Power, but not the realm of a demigod.

In other words, the guardian of the jade sword did not show up, but only lent part of his power to Jiang Miao. As for the sword in Jiang Miao's hand...it had no aura of world runes.

And the monkey demon actually believed it. It seems that people in this world completely regard the jade sword as an ordinary divine sword, because there is also a saying that divine objects obscure themselves, and not everyone can use the jade sword to extend their life.

Lifespan, right?

"...You are the leader, I listen to you."

The fox has not analyzed what Balliard meant yet, but Balliard has no reason to watch the jade sword being taken away from them.

Qiang——

The divine sword in Jiang Miao's hand had been knocked away by the monkey demon's stick and fell to the ground. It suddenly lost its luster and looked like an ordinary sword.

"Demigods who are made by external forces are really weak. From this point of view, this jade sword will not help me improve my strength. I can give it to that person directly."

The monkey demon picked up the divine sword and walked towards Balliard and the others.

"What are you guys doing?"

"We are the subordinates of the Prime Minister. This time we are mainly -"
