“Sir Liu, this is a cup of Qing Lan Wine made from the dew of the Qing Lan Flower, which contains the spiritual power of Spirit Crystals, and after drinking it, you can enhance your cultivation.”
Miss Yun Zhi sat beside Zhang Ruochen, wearing a thin moon white shirt, and her two snow white jade fingers twisted a white jade-like wine cup, handing it to Zhang Ruochen’s lips.
It had to be said that Miss Yun Zhi was worthy of being the head honcho of Vermilion Bird House, and was indeed very good looking, although she was not yet comparable to Huang Yichen and Duanmu Xingling, she was already comparable to Lin Mishan.
Her **** very plump, white and tender, revealing a deep gully underneath the thin lace, her body exuded a seductive fragrance, and her pair of starry eyes looked as if they were able to drip water, staring at Zhang Ruochen with affection.
Zhang Ruochen received the wine cup and did not drink the wine down.
In the black market, it was better to be careful.
Miss Yunzhi was a little disappointed and stared at Zhang Ruochen with a grudge, thinking that he was just too uninterested.
After waiting for a long time, footsteps came from outside.
“Boom boom!”
The Marquis of Zhen Jun was wearing a reddish-golden armour with a large sword close to two meters long on his waist as he walked in from outside.
His body was very sturdy, standing at a height of two metres and four, his arms were as thick as buckets, his waist and stomach were wide, his chest and back were like a fierce tiger, and his body exuded a powerful martial aura.
In front of the Marquis of Zhen Jun, Elder Wei, Military Master Yun, and the Vermilion Bird Building Master all stepped back slightly, physically and mentally oppressed, feeling that the air in the entire elegant pavilion wanted to freeze, making it very difficult for them to breathe.
The Marquis of Zhen Jun let out a loud laugh as he walked over towards Zhang Ruochen and said, “This is the Left Minister’s disciple, Prince Liu Xin?”
“Greetings, Marquis Zhen Jun.”
Zhang Ruochen stood up and slightly arched his hand.
Seeing Zhang Ruochen’s calm and unruffled demeanour, a stark contrast to Elder Wei and the others, Marquis Zhen Jun’s eyes narrowed as he sighed in admiration, “Worthy of being a protégé of Lord Left Prime Minister, he really isn’t an ordinary martial artiste to be compared to.”
As the Marquis of Zhen Jun sized up Zhang Ruochen, Zhang Ruochen was also sizing him up.
The Marquis of Zhen Jun was definitely one of those gifted martial artists, with a powerful physique, thick bones, and a dragon’s essence, presumably possessing natural divine strength.
Such a character was definitely considered a first-class powerhouse in the same realm.
With the same early Heavenly Extremity Realm martial cultivation, the Marquis of Zhen Jun gave Zhang Ruochen a powerful oppressive force, and this person was estimated to be one step more powerful than even Mu Qing.
As for the even weaker Duke Hua Ming, he was even less of a match for the Marquis of Zhen Jun.
Moreover, behind the Marquis of Zhen Jun, there were also six dead soldiers completely wrapped in black armour.
Each dead soldier’s body emitted an icy cold aura, closely guarding the Marquis of Zhen Jun’s side, and it could be imagined that anyone who wished to get close to the Marquis of Zhen Jun would surely have to pass through them first.
Zhang Ruochen said, “Marquis Zhen Jun is worthy of being the military commander of the Southern Realm of the Four Direction County Kingdom, his men are full of talent, these six dead soldiers are all first class experts, it’s enviable.”
Marquis Zhen Jun laughed out loud and said, “Duke Liu, good eye. This Marquis has cultivated a total of ten dead soldiers, all of whom have cultivation levels above the Earth Extremity Realm’s Minor Extremity Position. In the army, their status, which is only below this Marquis, is known as the ‘Ten Deadly Lang Generals’. Today, I only brought six of them, and with the strength of the six of them, if they were to perform a combined attack formation, it would be enough to briefly fight against a Heavenly Extreme Realm Martial Myth.”
“Impressive!” Zhang Ruochen said.
With six Death God Lang Generals guarding the Marquis of Zhen Jun’s side, it had become a whole lot more difficult to kill the Marquis of Zhen Jun.
The Marquis of Zhen Jun laughed, “It’s just ten Earth Extreme Realm Deathlords, it’s a far cry from the Deathlords of the Left Minister’s House. Duke Liu, since this Marquis has arrived, shouldn’t you also take out the token of the Left Minister’s House and let this Marquis identify it. Only after identifying it can we continue to negotiate bigger business.”
“Of course!”
Zhang Ruochen’s right hand felt towards his sleeve and took out a token, handing it over towards Marquis Zhen Jun.
The Marquis of Zhen Jun looked at the token, and suddenly, his eyes were stunned, “A token from the Martial City School Palace …… Not good …… He’s from the Martial City School Palace …… ”
Zhang Ruochen snorted coldly and injected his true qi into the token, striking it at one of the dead soldiers standing to the left of the Marquis of Zhen Jun.
The token was wrapped in true qi like a fireball, containing a powerful impact that directly knocked that one dead soldier of the Earth Extremity Realm’s Great Extremity Position flying out.
“Boom!”
That one Earth Extremity Realm Great Extremity Boundary Deadman crashed through the wall, revealing a human-sized hole, and flew out of the Accord.
Before the Marquis of Zhen Jun could react, Zhang Ruochen had a sharp broken sword in his hand at some unknown time, and using his entire body’s true qi, he slashed at the Marquis of Zhen Jun’s neck.
“Giggle!”
The Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword was completely wrapped in Spirit Fire True Qi, rushing up a ten foot long flame sword light.
It was as if Zhang Ruochen was squeezing a fire dragon in his hand, not to mention a person, even a large river seemed to be able to be chopped in two.
Marquis Zhen Jun’s face changed drastically, and it was too late for him to dodge, so he could only stretch out his arms, trying to catch the sword that Zhang Ruochen slashed down.
The Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword tore apart the true qi between the Zhen Jun Hou’s hands and ruthlessly chopped at the Zhen Jun Hou’s neck.
With a “Boom” sound, the floorboards underneath the Zhen Jun Hou’s feet cracked, and his body crashed down to the ground floor, a huge hole appeared on the ground, and the entire pavilion shook violently, shaking.
Zhang Ruochen was able to clearly feel that the sword just now had indeed broken through the armour of the Zhen Jun Hou, but it definitely did not kill the Zhen Jun Hou.
While Zhang Ruochen was planning to chase after the Bottom Building, Elder Wei, Military Master Yun, and Vermillion Bird Building Master attacked Zhang Ruochen at the same time.
“Kid, who the hell are you?”
“How dare you make a move to assassinate the Marquis, suffer death!”
“Since he was able to take out the token of the Martial Market Money Bank, he should be a young expert of the Martial Market Money Bank, join forces to take him down.” The Vermilion Bird Floor Master said.
The three of them, all of whom were at the Earth Extremity Realm Grand Circle cultivation, surrounded Zhang Ruochen in the centre, and each of them unleashed their most powerful martial skills.
“Heavenly Yin Palm Technique.”
Elder Wei’s entire body’s meridians turned green, like a graphic tattoo, and his hands condensed a thick layer of cold ice as he struck a chilling palm seal from Zhang Ruochen’s left side.
“Blood Red Diamond!”
Two long blood-red diamonds flew out from inside the Vermillion Bird Floor Master’s sleeves, extending over ten zhang in length and winding towards Zhang Ruochen’s hands.
“Poof!”
Zhang Ruochen’s legs moved as he rushed directly in front of Elder Wei, and a flash of blood appeared from his sword.
Before Elder Wei’s palm imprint could hit Zhang Ruochen’s body, his own head flew out.
“Swish swish!”
Zhang Ruochen slashed out thirteen swords in a row, transforming into thirteen sword qi that chopped the two red diamonds struck by the Vermilion Bird Floor Master into pieces of rags.
“What?”
The Vermilion Bird Floor Master lost her colour, not expecting her opponent’s strength to be so terrifying, so she immediately exploded backwards, wanting to jump out of the window and escape.
Only to see a flash of silhouettes, Zhang Ruochen was already standing in front of the window first.
“Heavenly Heart Pointing!”
Zhang Ruochen swung his sword and dragged out a sword Qi that was more than ten metres long.
The sword Qi, which extended from Zhang Ruochen’s feet all the way to Vermilion Bird Floor Master’s body, left a long sword path on the ground.
The Vermilion Bird Floor Master crossed his arms and blocked forward.
“Ah!”
She screamed miserably as she was knocked out by the sword energy, spilling blood and not knowing whether she was alive or dead?
With that sword just now, Zhang Ruochen also split the entire pavilion into two halves, the ground cracked and went straight to the bottom.
Zhang Ruochen didn’t bother to check whether the Vermilion Bird Building Master was alive or dead, that kind of small person, even if he was alive, he couldn’t threaten him.
Getting rid of the Marquis of Zhen Jun first was the right thing to do.
Zhang Ruochen jumped down to the ground floor, only to see a large pit with a diameter of three metres on the ground, as well as some fresh blood, but there was no sign of the Marquis of Zhen Jun.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen raised his head violently, only to see six martial arts powerhouses standing above him.
They were cupping jades in their hands, injecting their true qi into the jades, and were catalysing the formation inscriptions in the jades, preparing to set up a Combined Attack Formation.
Five of them were wrapped in thick iron armour, and they were the same five Death God Lang Generals that followed the Marquis of Zhen Jun.
The other person was Military Master Yun, Yun Zhonghai.
In the martial arts world, all six of them were considered first-rate experts.
“Wow.”
The Combined Attack Formation was set up to take shape, and the jade stones in the hands of the six, each rushed out a pillar of light, connecting together to form a spherical formation cage, trapping Zhang Ruochen in the centre of the formation.
The Marquis of Zhen Jun walked out, a pair of tiger eyes, coldly staring at Zhang Ruochen in the formation, saying, “Kid, who the hell are you?”
Zhang Ruochen’s sword just now broke through the Zhen Jun Hou’s armour, leaving a deep bloody gash on the Zhen Jun Hou’s neck.
Even the interlocking bones were chopped and broken, and the Zhen Jun Hou suffered a not-so-light injury, which he was able to suppress only by relying on his profound martial arts cultivation.
Zhang Ruochen looked at the wretched Zhen Jun Hou with a fearless face and smiled, “You’re a dying man, even if I tell you, what’s the use?”
“I’m a person about to die? Haha!”
The Marquis of Zhen Jun laughed out loud and said, “You haven’t recognised the situation yet, have you? I’ve already sent someone to open the black market’s city guard formation, even if you escape the combined formation, you’re still dead.”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes stared, although the Combined Attack Formation was a bit of a threat to him, it was not considered troublesome.
However, once the City Protector Formation was opened, it would be almost impossible for Zhang Ruochen to still try to kill the Marquis of Zhen Jun!
“Yun Zhonghai, the five Death God Lang Generals are under orders to take this brat down. Don’t hurt his life first, this Marquis wants him alive.” The Marquis of Zhen Jun said in annoyance.
“Rumble!”
Under the urging of the six experts, the Combined Attack Formation spun rapidly.
A formation inscription gushed out from the jade, transforming into strands of lightning. The lightning bolts, twisting together, formed six thick streaks of electricity that surged towards Zhang Ruochen at the same time.
“Break for me!”
Zhang Ruochen’s arm swung out, striking a three-foot-long spatial rift that flew in the direction of the Sea of Clouds.
“Space …… cracked ……”
Yun Zhonghai was startled, and just as he tried to escape, he felt a terrifying suction force coming from within that one spatial crack, pulling him in.
The spatial rift closed, and Yun Zhonghai had disappeared.
With the loss of Yun Zhonghai, the Combined Attack Formation naturally broke without attack.
“What just …… happened just now?” The gaze of the Marquis of Zhen Jun was firmly fixed on, the location in the Sea of Clouds that had just disappeared.
Space had actually cracked out a gap, swallowing an Earth Extremity Realm Grand Circle martial arts expert inside.
The Marquis of Zhen Jun’s heart was wildly frightened, if he himself was also chopped by that spatial crack, it was estimated that he would not end up much better than Yun Hai Zhong.
“Why hasn’t the City Protector Formation been opened yet?”
“This brat is too eccentric, let’s leave first.” Fear arose in the Zhen Jun Hou’s heart, and being severely injured, he didn’t dare to continue staying.
He immediately executed his body technique and fled out of the Vermilion Bird Building.
“Where to escape?”
Zhang Ruochen leapt forward and was about to chase after him when suddenly, the five Death God Lang Generals rushed out, drew out five war blades, and chopped at Zhang Ruochen at the same time.
“Swish swish!”
Zhang Ruochen stepped on his feet and his body turned into nine phantom shadows as he performed nine sword strokes in a row.
In the next moment, Zhang Ruochen rushed out through the gap between the five Death God Lang Generals, transforming into a residual shadow as he chased after the Marquis of Zhen Jun.
After Zhang Ruochen left, the five Death God Lang Generals landed on the ground at the same time, and each of them had a faint bloodstain at the position of their necks, dying of gas.
In a matter of moments, he had killed five powerful Earth Extreme Realm experts, displaying a swordsmanship that had sent those youths in the Vermilion Bird House. Floor women were so scared that they didn’t dare to move a bit.
