Zixie did not leave and stood side by side with Zhang Ruochen, holding the ancient sword in her hands and wearing the phoenix pattern space ring that Zhang Ruochen had gifted to her on her jade finger.
She stared at Zhang Ruochen and said, “If you really can’t, go stay at my place tonight?”
“Eh?” Zhang Ruochen said.
Zixi’s cheeks flushed and her eyes turned a little cold as she said, “What were you thinking of? I was just afraid that you would also have your legs broken and be thrown out of the Dragon Martial Hall.”
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, “No need! Although the Dragon Martial Hall is a dragon’s den, your room may not be safe either. In case you cut off my head with a sword while I’m sleeping, tomorrow, you can go to the black market and exchange it for a bounty of 150,000 silver coins, how wrong would I be?”
“You ……”
Zixi’s eyes became even colder, itching to chop Zhang Ruochen’s head off and kick it as a ball, she kindly wanted to save him for once, but it turned out that he was so ungrateful.
“But …… why do you want to help him?”
He was clearly here to kill him, he was clearly an assassin, why did he want to save his assassination target?
Zixi was caught in a deep contradiction, her five snowy onion jade fingers couldn’t help but squeeze tightly as she struggled inwardly. She realised that she was already somewhat unable to lay her hands on killing Zhang Ruochen, which was a very bad feeling!
A person who made killing a profession but couldn’t lay her hands on killing was definitely a fatal crisis for her.
Zhang Ruochen watched Zixi’s face turn pale, thinking that it was because he had hurt her with his words just now, so he laughed and said, ”Just joking with you, you don’t have to take it too much to heart. Otherwise, I’ll go to your place tonight for a temporary stay for a night, and by the way, I’ll share the cultivation resources I got in the Heavenly Demon Ridge with you?”
“No way! Is my dormitory not a place you can go to?”
Zixi’s attitude changed drastically as she coldly rejected Zhang Ruochen and turned around, adding, “You must be more careful the next time you go out, I may assassinate you at any time!”
Zhang Ruochen was slightly stunned, staring at Zixi’s back and said, “I really still can’t understand women’s thinking, they change their faces when they say so.”
Zhang Ruochen gently shook his head and walked in the direction of the Dragon Martial Hall.
Even if it was a dragon’s den, Zhang Ruochen would still have to go through it after all. As a martial artist, if he didn’t even have this bit of guts, he would definitely not achieve much in the future.
The Dragon Martial Hall, located in the middle of the Western Courtyard, was flanked by two huge mountains on the east and west, with cliffs that made the terrain quite treacherous.
It had to be said that the Martial City Money Bank was indeed wealthy and generous, just the dormitory where the trainees lived was also like a royal palace, giving off a feeling of grandeur.
At a glance, the three main halls and eight side halls of the Dragon Martial Hall were arranged according to a subtle pattern, as if forming a formation.
When Zhang Ruochen arrived outside the Dragon Martial Hall, the night had completely darkened.
Not far away, one could vaguely see quite a number of outer palace disciples, all of them looking in the direction of the Dragon Martial Hall.
“Coming! Here it comes! This year’s freshman number one is here!”
“He’s the one who broke through the second level of the third floor of the Martial Tower, Zhang Ruochen? Take a guess, will he be beaten even worse than Yuchi Tiancong?”
“Definitely will! Those demonesses, they specialise in beating up geniuses. The higher the talent, the worse they are beaten. I reckon he won’t just have his legs broken, he might even have his hands broken as well.”
“Just wait and see! In less than an hour, he will definitely be thrown out.”
Liu Chengfeng and those freshmen from the Yunwu County Kingdom also rushed to the outside of the Dragon Martial Hall, staring at Zhang Ruochen with pitying eyes.
Liu Xifeng said, “After the Ninth Prince is thrown out, you guys will go and carry the person, I’ll apply medicine to him. I just went and exchanged for the very best Tendon Bone Breaking Cream.”
The few freshmen next to him nodded, and as they looked at Zhang Ruochen standing outside the Dragon Martial Hall, all of them kept sighing, only hoping that Zhang Ruochen would be able to save his life.
Zhang Ruochen’s ears were so sharp that he heard the words of the crowd clearly, but he still resolutely pushed open the door of the Dragon Martial Hall and walked in.
“Sure enough, the aura is abundant.”
When Zhang Ruochen walked into the Dragon Martial Hall, he felt surging spiritual qi pouring in from all directions, which was twice as dense as outside.
Cultivating in the Dragon Martial Hall was definitely faster than cultivating outside.
Underneath Zhang Ruochen’s feet was a huge white stone plaza, roughly two hundred metres long, and in the distance, there was a grand and atmospheric main hall, with the words “Dragon Martial Hall” written on the top of the hall.
At the back of the Dragon Martial Hall, there were two other large halls, the Qi Observation Hall and the Divine Power Hall.
Around the three main halls, there were eight side halls, which were: the first heavenly character, the second heavenly character, the first earthly character, the second earthly character, the first xuan character, the second xuan character, the first yellow character, and the second royal character.
“Cadets who are able to enter the Dragon Martial Hall are definitely all the key cultivation objects of the Academic Palace, and the living environment is just extraordinary.”
Zhang Ruochen walked towards the Yellow Character No. 1, inserted the bronze key into the lock hole of the gate, opened the door, and then walked straight in.
From the moment he walked into the Dragon Martial Hall, Zhang Ruochen was carefully on guard, even casting out his Spatial Domain.
Walking into the Yellow Character No. 1, Zhang Ruochen finally breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the Dragon Martial Hall wasn’t as scary as the legends.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen saw a lamp lit up in a courtyard in front of him, moreover, there seemed to be the sound of paddling water passing through.
“Yellow Character No. 1 is where I live, could it be that someone has already commandeered this place?”
Zhang Ruochen’s heart was certainly a little displeased, and decided to go and take a look to see who was being so overbearing.
Just as he walked into that courtyard, he could smell a faint fragrance of flowers wafting out from the inner door. After taking a few more steps, Zhang Ruochen finally saw the image that would make countless men spurt their blood.
Only to see that in the centre of that courtyard, there was actually a bathing pool, the water surface was filled with flower petals, a woman with snow-white skin was sitting in the bathing pool, and with just a back figure, she was so breathtakingly beautiful that she couldn’t find a single flaw.
Although most of her snow-white body was submerged in the water, it was still possible to see a shadowed silhouette, and a single droplet of water rolled down from the top of her skin.
Under the light, it looked very fragrant.
After looking at the one woman in the bath, Zhang Ruochen’s heart jumped violently and he secretly screamed, “Oh no! They actually used this trick again, what now? If they are caught, they will definitely have their legs broken and even have their eyes gouged out.”
Although, Zhang Ruochen was exceptionally talented and had a high cultivation level, but after all, he was only in the middle stage of the Xuan Extreme Realm, so how could he possibly fight against a female demon at the Grand Circle level of the Xuan Extreme Realm?
They were also too ruthless!
Zhang Ruochen stared at the back of the woman bathing in the pool, he always felt that there was something familiar about it, but, at the moment, he couldn’t even think about it that much, and sighed darkly, “In order to deal with me, this female fiend has put down a lot of money, and actually actually stripped naked for me to see. Too unscrupulous!”
Escape!
One must flee immediately!
Zhang Ruochen looked around and realised that no one had rushed out to tackle him, so he slowly took a step back and prepared to leave quietly.
“You just came now?” The woman still hadn’t turned around, sitting in the bath, enjoying the sensation of bathing very much.
Undeniably, her voice was very beautiful, like heavenly music, extraordinarily good.
Zhang Ruochen was slightly startled and immediately stopped in his tracks.
“If she knows I’m coming, why is she still so calm? But …… her voice is so familiar.”
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes gradually turned resolute, since he had already been exposed, he was fortunate enough to fight her!
Since she dared to set up a trap to frame herself, Zhang Ruochen dared to fight her to the death.
Zhang Ruochen revolved the true qi in his body and prepared to use the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm to seriously injure her as fast as possible first, only then would he have a chance to escape.
Of course, with Zhang Ruochen’s current cultivation, it was almost impossible for him to injure that Xuanji Realm Grand Circle woman in the pool. Unless the other party, without any defence, handed him a slap.
Even if there was not a single chance of winning, Zhang Ruochen would still have to put up a fight.
Zhang Ruochen would never be willing to be like Yuchi Tiancong who had his legs broken and was thrown out of the Dragon Martial Hall.
“Wow!”
Zhang Ruochen stepped on his feet and exploded with a speed of thirty-eight metres per second, and in a flash, he rushed to the side of the bath.
The woman in the bath pool, without a hint of defence, turned around from the pool and said, “Starling, since you’re here, why don’t you say anything ……”
Before the woman could finish her words, she saw Zhang Ruochen’s palm imprint appear in front of her, and a teenager’s figure became larger and larger inside her pupils.
Her face changed drastically, and she was about to run the True Qi in her body to resist.
However, it was too late.
“Barbarian Elephant Chi Earth!”
Zhang Ruochen slammed his palm on her chest, and a powerful force erupted out, sending the one woman in the pool flying, flying more than ten metres away, and crashing down onto the top of the stone platform by the side of the bath.
That one woman’s entire body was naked, her figure was slim and flawless, the only thing was the location of her chest, where an extra blood-red palm mark appeared.
“Wow!”
That one woman’s mouth spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsing on the ground, trembling all over, the location of her chest was in fiery pain, obviously suffering from an extremely heavy injury.
Even if she was a Xuan Ranked Martial Artist, without any defence, being hit by Zhang Ruochen’s full force, even if she didn’t die, she would have to shed a layer of skin.
Fortunately, at the last moment, she revolved her true qi and protected her chest, otherwise, she would have perished fragrantly by now.
Zhang Ruochen looked at the woman who crashed to the ground and looked at his palm, he simply did not expect to be able to seriously injure a Xuan Ranked Martial Artist so easily.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen didn’t have any pity, after all, it was the other party who had set up a trap to harm him first, and he had struck out in order to protect himself.
Zhang Ruochen walked over towards that one woman who had collapsed by the side of the bathtub, looking at her lying naked at the place, after all, he still had some intolerance, and unclasped the robe he was wearing on her body, hitching it over her body to cover her delicate body.
Zhang Ruochen solemnly said, ”Although your methods are despicable, I will not take advantage of people’s danger. Hehe! You are Huang Yichen!”
Zhang Ruochen finally saw the face of the stunning woman lying on the ground, and it was none other than Huang Yichen who he had met once in the Martial Tower.
Hearing Zhang Ruochen’s words of reprimand, Huang Yichen trembled with anger, opening a pair of beautiful eyes, clenching her teeth, and saying in a trembling voice, “Asshole …… bast*rd, you actually dared to …… dare to barge into my lodgings! …… I’m going to …… I’m going to kill you …… Wow!”
Huang Yicun spat out another mouthful of blood, then fainted.
Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly, “Unbelievable. Yellow Character Number One is where I live, and it was clearly her who broke into this place and tried to set up a trap to harm me. Now she’s actually hitting me with a rake in the back? This woman, reversing right and wrong, unscrupulous, is by no means a good person. It’s fortunate that she was seriously injured, otherwise, I would have to be killed by her tonight.”
