“I’m defeated!”
When the Orange Moon Star Envoy uttered those three words, the entire Martial Market Fighting Arena, once again, roared.
“Defeating Lu Flipping Sky in eleven moves, defeating the Star Envoy of the Black Market’s First Class Hall in ten moves, Zhang Ruochen, the name of the king of the younger generation is truly not a vain one.”
“Too powerful! These two battles will surely make it onto the next issue of the Eastern Region Wind and Cloud Newspaper.”
At this moment, some people also recalled the bet between Zhang Ruochen and the Orange Moon Star Envoy before the battle.
Duanmu Xingling stood up and said with a smile on her face, “Orange Moon Star Envoy, didn’t you claim that if you lost to Zhang Ruochen, you would be at Zhang Ruochen’s disposal, is that still true?”
The Orange Moon Star Envoy glanced coldly at Duanmu Xingling and said, “Since I said this, of course I won’t go back on my words.”
The crowd was curious as to how Zhang Ruochen would dispose of the Orange Moon Star Envoy.
One must know that capturing the Star Envoy of the Black Market’s One Piece Hall was a great feat, and would surely receive a huge reward from the Martial Market’s Money Bank and the Sacred Courtyard.
It was estimated that Zhang Ruochen would have to send the Orange Moon Star Envoy to the Law Enforcement Hall of the Martial Market Chambers and exchange it for Merit Value.
“Ta-da!”
Just at this moment, a noisy sound came from the outside of the Martial Market Fighting Arena.
Afterwards, a group of generals wearing military armour and battle robes rushed in from outside.
They stood neatly in two columns, each one of them at Heavenly Extremity Realm cultivation, full of spirit, and naturally exuding a strong murderous aura from their bodies.
A wild man with a rigid figure walked out from the centre of the two columns of generals, with his hands behind his back.
His eyes were like electricity, his nose was high, his cheekbones were prominent, and all of his features looked like they had been chiselled by a sword or an axe, very three-dimensional, and his body was filled with a masculine aura.
It was none other than one of the six kings of the younger generation, Bu Qianfan.
“How did a sergeant from the Heavenly Mighty Battalion come to the Martial Market Fighting Arena?”A handsome young gentleman glanced towards the two groups of sergeants and immediately recognised them.
The Heavenly Mighty Battalion of the Ministry of War, as famous as thunder.
“Did you guys not see that person walking at the very front? He’s wearing the Silver Fish Treasure Armour of the Hundred Household Flag Captain, he has an extraordinary aura, and his age should only be twenty years old.”
“To be able to be the Hundred Household Banner Commander of the Heavenly Wealth Battalion at the age of twenty, there is only Bu Qianfan.”
“What? Bu Qianfan.”
“Bu Qianfan came to the Martial Market Fighting Arena, presumably running towards Zhang Ruochen. This is something to watch, they are both kings of the younger generation, once they fight, they are bound to break the sky.”
“Actually, Zhang Ruochen and Bu Qianfan have already fought once at the Pilgrimage Heavenly Stairs, only, neither of them used their full strength that time, so they didn’t share a victory.”
Seeing Bu Qianfan enter the Martial Market Fighting Arena, all the martial artists in the room were excited and thrilled, very much looking forward to Zhang Ruochen and Bu Qianfan fighting.
In the audience, there were many young martial artists who worshipped Zhang Ruochen, and of course, there were also many young martial artists who regarded Bu Qianfan as a teenage God of War.
Zhang Ruochen also saw Bu Qianfan who had walked in, and so, he quickly launched his sword, stabbing out nine swords in a row, pointing at the Orange Moon Star Envoy’s nine acupoints where her meridians intersected, and immobilising her.
Although, the Orange Moon Star Envoy’s entire body was unable to move, however, when the remaining light of her eyes, saw Bu Qianfan walking from the distance, she still revealed a trace of a strange expression.
Entering the Martial Market Fighting Arena, Bu Qianfan’s gaze first glanced towards the Orange Moon Shaped Star Envoy before moving to Zhang Ruochen’s body, saying, “Zhang Ruochen, may I borrow a step to speak?”
Zhang Ruochen’s observation power was astonishing, so naturally, he was able to detect the strangeness in Bu Qianfan’s expression.
Zhang Ruochen had a premonition that the reason why Bu Qianfan had come to the Martial Market Fighting Arena was not to challenge him, but was related to the Orange Moon Star Envoy.
“Of course.”
Zhang Ruochen nodded and walked off the battle stage.
Bu Qianfan took the initiative to walk up to Zhang Ruochen’s body, and a powerful true qi was released from his body, forming a spherical domain that wrapped him and Zhang Ruochen in it.
He transmitted his voice in a sonic wave and secretly said, “Zhang Ruochen, I want to save the life of the Orange Moon Star Envoy, you can make whatever conditions you want.”
As expected.
Zhang Ruochen was not surprised and stared at Bu Qianfan’s eyes as he asked, “Why?”
Bu Qianfan pondered for a moment, a few soft colours appearing in his eyes as he said, “Didn’t you want to know why I lost to Emperor Yi with three swords? It’s because of her, she’s the break in my heart.”
“Surprisingly, it’s a woman again.”
Zhang Ruochen laughed, not knowing if he was laughing at Bu Qianfan or himself.
As the saying goes, it’s hard for a hero to get over a beauty.
Even an iron blooded man with a strong will like Bu Qianfan would be dragged down by the word ‘love’.
Zhang Ruochen said, “I can keep her alive, but of course, I also have a condition.”
“What condition?”Bu Qianfan said.
Zhang Ruochen said, “One of the Five Elements Spiritual Treasures, the Source of Spiritual Flame. As long as you deliver the Source of Spirit Flame, I will hand her over to you.”
Of the Five Elements Spiritual Treasures, Zhang Ruochen had already obtained three of them, and with the Nurturing Sacred Blood Soil that Duanmu Xingling had mastered, Zhang Ruochen was now only missing the Source of Spirit Fire.
With the Bu Sheng Sect obtaining the right to manage the Five Elements Ruins Realm, the Bu Sheng Sect would definitely be able to collect a large amount of Spirit Flame Sources. With Bu Qianfan’s position in the Bu Sheng Sect Valve, it would never be difficult to obtain a copy of the Spirit Flame Source.
Therefore, Zhang Ruochen was not too much to ask for this one condition.
Killing the Orange Moon Star Envoy would at most result in some rewards for Zhang Ruochen. Those rewards might not necessarily be as precious as the Spirit Flame Source.
Besides, with the Orange Moon Star Envoy’s status in the Black Market, there must be a huge power behind her.
Killing her would be tantamount to offending that one power, and the other party would definitely get rid of Zhang Ruochen at all costs.
Since Bu Qianfan took the initiative to beg him, Zhang Ruochen of course did a favour and kept the Orange Moon Star Envoy alive first.
“Brilliant.”
Seeing Zhang Ruochen agree, Bu Qianfan finally let out a sigh of relief and said, “This time, count me as owing you a favour, in the future, if you need any help, feel free to come to me at the Heavenly Mighty Battalion of the Ministry of War.”
After saying this, Bu Qianfan withdrew his true qi and led the soldiers of the Heavenly Might Battalion, turned around and left, walking out of the martial market fighting arena.
The Orange Moon Star Envoy could be Bu Qianfan’s martial dao breaker, and she naturally had an irreplaceable position in Bu Qianfan’s heart.
Not to mention that Zhang Ruochen only wanted a single copy of the Source of Spiritual Flame, even if Zhang Ruochen asked him to take all the Five Elements Spiritual Treasures in exchange, he definitely wouldn’t frown.
If Zhang Ruochen didn’t release the Orange Moon Star Envoy, Bu Qianfan would definitely take her away even if he had to use force.
“What’s going on? Bu Qianfan just left?”
“Bu Qianfan actually just said a few words to Zhang Ruochen before turning around and leaving, not quite like his style of doing things.”
“What exactly did he exchange with Zhang Ruochen?”
The crowd was curious and had no idea what had happened?
Just now, the dialogue between Bu Qianfan and Zhang Ruochen had used a sound wave transmission, and outsiders simply didn’t know what they were talking about.
Xie Yunan walked over and stood beside Zhang Ruochen as he asked, “Brother Zhang, do you want to imprison the Orange Moon Star Envoy into the Law Enforcement Hall’s Death Cell now?”
Although the Orange Moon Star Envoy was captured by Zhang Ruochen, however, this was after all the Martial Market Fighting Arena, which was within Xie Yunan’s jurisdiction. As long as the Orange Moon Star Envoy was sent to the Law Enforcement Hall, no matter what, Xie Yun’an would have a share of the credit.
It was precisely because of this that he was very much on top of the situation, and couldn’t wait to immediately behead the Orange Moon Star Envoy and send it to claim the credit.
Zhang Ruochen glanced at Xie Yunan and said, ”Why should we put him in death row? Since the Orange Moon Star Envoy was captured by me, it is certainly for me to dispose of him.”
“This ……”
Xie Yunan was a little embarrassed and quickly said, “The identity of the Orange Moon Star Envoy is not trivial, if she is captured, the experts of the black market will definitely not be willing to let go. It’s better to send her to the Law Enforcement Hall to be safer, in case she is rescued ……”
Zhang Ruochen immediately interrupted Xie Yunan and said, “You don’t need to say more, I have my own arrangements.”
After saying this, Zhang Ruochen took the Orange Moon Star Envoy and left the Martial Market Fighting Arena.
Looking at Zhang Ruochen’s departing back, Xie Yunan wanted to stop it, but he didn’t dare to offend Zhang Ruochen too much.
A warrior from the Martial Market Money Bank, walked over and stood beside Xie Yunan, asking in a low voice, “Elder Xie, what now?”
Xie Yunan’s eyes were Avray concave, revealing a few odd smiles as he said, “After all, Zhang Ruochen is a bloodthirsty young man, and despite his high natural talent, he is still a man, so he must have taken a fancy to the Orange Moon Star Envoy’s beauty and moved to lust.”
“The Evil Woman of the Black Market is extremely cunning, in case she confuses Zhang Ruochen, she will probably escape.”That one warrior was a bit worried.
Xie Yunan nodded, his expression grave, and said, “Absolutely not because of Zhang Ruochen’s selfish desires, let that one Evil Woman have a chance to escape. You should go to the Law Enforcement Hall right now and ask the Hall Master of the Law Enforcement Hall to personally come and take the person, only he can suppress Zhang Ruochen. I will now bring people to follow Zhang Ruochen to the Martial City Stage House where he resides, we absolutely cannot let that one Evil Woman escape.”
“Subordinate leads the way.”
That one warrior, immediately leapt onto the savage beast’s back, and with a whip on top of the savage beast’s buttocks, rushed out of the Martial Market Stage House in the direction of the Law Enforcement Hall.
“Follow me.”
Xie Yunan led dozens of Law Enforcement Hall-trained warriors and followed closely behind Zhang Ruochen, surrounding the two of them like an iron bucket, fearing that the Orange Moon Star Envoy would escape.
Duanmu Xingling also followed, glancing at them from afar, a puzzled look in her eyes, rather puzzled, “What exactly is Zhang Ruochen doing?”
Other people might think that Zhang Ruochen was coveting the Orange Moon Star Envoy’s beauty and seeing lust, and that was why he had not handed her over to the Law Enforcement Hall.
However, Duanmu Xingling would definitely not think so, as she understood Zhang Ruochen.
She knew that Zhang Ruochen was not that kind of person.
Back at the Martial City Stage Hall, Zhang Ruochen brought the Orange Moon Star Envoy into his room.
“Creak.”
He closed the door to his room and calmly sat down on a chair, glancing towards the Orange Moon Star Envoy as he pointed his finger through the air, unsealing one of the meridians on her body.
The Orange Moon Star Envoy’s limbs regained their mobility, moved the wrists of her hands, retreated to the window, and laughed coldly, “Zhang Ruochen, what conditions did Bu Qianfan agree to with you?”
