"Yuanba, get up quickly. You are so majestic as soon as you appear, truly a god of war!"
Qin Jun quickly helped Li Yuanba up and praised him without reservation. In his heart, Li Yuanba was not a god of war, but a fierce warrior, a weapon of war!
Li Yuanba scratched his head shyly as he was praised, and this scene made others feel so unreal.
Is this the same fierce and ferocious person who fought against the demons just now?
"Why do you call Qin Jun 'brother' and 'lord'?" Xiao Li asked curiously.
The others were also curious. Could it be that Qin Jun had saved Li Yuanba before? How many powerful people has this guy saved since he was a child?
And there were always powerful people coming to pay their respects because of some inspiration.
"When I was young, I was homeless, and it was the lord who gave me a meal to eat, otherwise I would have starved to death long ago," Li Yuanba said seriously, almost making everyone collapse.
So that's really the case!
Qin Jun suppressed the urge to burst into laughter and waved his hand, saying, "Let's not mention the past. With Yuanba's help in the future, where in the world can't I go?"
At this moment, he almost wanted to kiss the system, the memory insertion was too awesome!
Flawless!
Who could remember what happened when he was a child?
Li Yuanba was praised and immediately promised, "In the future, if the lord wants me to smash someone, I will smash them!"
As he spoke, he deliberately shook the Golden Peng Divine Hammer in his hand, making everyone's heart jump.
"Still calling him 'lord'? Call me 'Your Highness'," Qin Jun scolded with a smile, inadvertently bringing himself closer to Li Yuanba.
Jia Xun, after a brief astonishment, suddenly became excited. With Qin Jun gaining such a fierce warrior, it was equivalent to the benefit of the Qianyue Kingdom. Just thinking about Li Yuanba and Guan Yu fighting for the Qianyue Kingdom in the southern region made him excited beyond measure.
Ye Xuan and the others still hadn't come to their senses. Along the way, Qin Jun had given them more and more shocks, each one more terrifying than the last.
"Who is he really, and why can he always gather powerful people around him..."
Zhu Yanqing's eyes were somewhat dazed. Although she hadn't had deep conversations with Qin Jun, his handsome appearance and the gathering of many powerful people around him, as well as his own strength, were all very impressive.
Among the younger generation, she had not seen anyone more outstanding than Qin Jun, so naturally, there was some excitement in her heart.
But Qin Jun was shameless, with no shortage of beautiful women around him, and Zhu Yanqing wouldn't throw herself at him.
Beside her, Ye Xuan caught a glimpse of Zhu Yanqing's gaze towards Qin Jun and immediately felt disgusted, but with Li Yuanba present, he dared not show his emotions.
At this moment, the beast tide outside the city also began to recede. With the death of the Tiger Demon King, the confused demons naturally dared not stay any longer. Looking around, there were at least eight thousand demon corpses, strewn across the ground, blood flowing like a river, a testament to Li Yuanba's ferocity.
"Thank you for your help, senior!"
A general ran over and knelt down to salute, and as soon as he finished speaking, hundreds of soldiers on the city wall all knelt down and thanked him loudly.
Li Yuanba was indifferent to this, muttering to himself, "If it weren't for them blocking the way, I wouldn't have bothered with you."
This statement made the soldiers feel embarrassed. Qin Jun shook his head and smiled, saying, "Alright, let's enter the city. Let's get on the road early."
Li Yuanba's joining had put Qin Jun in a great mood, and the pressure brought by the Black Night Pavilion had also diminished.
The group descended the city wall and headed towards the carriage, while the soldiers began to spread the news of Li Yuanba's slaughter of the beast tide and the instant killing of the demon king, and the news spread like wildfire throughout the city.
Anyone who heard the news initially didn't believe it, but after the soldiers' assurances, more and more people began to believe it, and the whole city began to talk about Li Yuanba's might.
"That powerful man wielded a giant hammer and killed his way in and out of the beast tide!"
"Yes! With just a shout, the demon king begged for mercy!"
"You talk as if you were there."
"I was there. When that powerful man struck, a million demons were all exterminated!"
"Nonsense..."
Li Yuanba had become a sensation in the city, and the news of Li Yuanba's subsequent worship of the Little Overlord Qin Jun also spread like wildfire, causing a stir throughout the city.
In the following period, the news spread throughout the entire Canglan Kingdom. Of course, people from other cities naturally did not believe it, thinking that someone was trying to boost the reputation of the Qin King. It can be said that there were various opinions, making it difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
...
After purchasing food and supplies for the journey, the Qin King and his entourage began to walk towards the city gate. They did not plan to stay overnight in the city tonight, but instead wanted to make the most of their time on the road.
Li Yuanba walked beside the carriage where the Qin King was sitting, holding a roasted chicken in each hand and enjoying it with relish. It was hard to associate him with the ferocious figure who had slaughtered the beast tide. At this moment, he seemed like an innocent and carefree food lover.
As they approached the city gate, the procession came to a halt because there were many officials and members of prominent families waiting in front of the gate.
"I am the city lord, Wang Kun. I thank Your Highness the King of Yue and the Divine General of the Twin Hammers for their assistance. Otherwise, my city might have been overrun by the beast tide," a middle-aged, obese man stepped forward and greeted with a smile, his fat cheeks squeezed together, resembling a chrysanthemum.
"City Lord, you are too kind," the captain of the imperial guards returned the courtesy. The Qin King and Jia Xun did not step out of the carriage, as they naturally did not need to deal with such a small city lord.
"Bring the gifts over!" Wang Kun beckoned, then took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to the captain of the imperial guards with solemnity. "We have long known the identity of that demon king. Learning that the Divine General of the Twin Hammers killed it, I believe it will attract the wrath of a powerful figure behind it. This letter contains information about that powerful figure's identity."
