Chapter 164: The Contemporary No. Prodigy of Qifeng Mansion! [Second update!] The news of this battle had spread to all directions since ten days ago. People from all directions traveled long distances and arrived at Gaoliu City. At this moment, there are still many people who have been delayed on the road and have not arrived yet. However, the scene that was expected to be intense and boiling, with a battle of three hundred rounds and the victory of the Small Divine Sect in the end was not seen. Wuchang appeared and chopped down Xiaoshenzong with one sword. Afterwards, they fought fairly and slashed Xiao Shenzong twenty-three times. This news spread throughout Gaoliu City in an instant, and was transmitted to the outside world and all directions through various channels. The Little Divine Sect was defeated! There is no permanent victory! From today onwards, the title of Qifeng Mansion’s greatest genius of the time will be replaced! -
At this moment, Deputy City Guard Shi looked down with an expressionless face. "Is this Wuchang's response to me?" "Exactly word for word." "As expected, arrogant!" Deputy City Guard Shi sneered and walked away. The general beside him came closer and whispered, "What do you want?" Deputy City Guard Shi said calmly: "I will stay in Gaoliu City for ten days. You just keep an eye on him, but don't take any action." "Why can't we take action?" asked the general. "If I don't make a move, can you kill Wuchang?" Deputy City Guard Shi said slowly: "Xu Dingye is known as the best of the contemporary era, and has a vague reputation of being invincible in the Refining Essence Realm... Today he was defeated by Wuchang. The gap is so huge, haven't you seen it yet?" "You suspect that he has most likely entered the Qi Refining Stage?" "No matter if he is at the Qi Refining Stage or not, this kind of genius can be on par with Li Shenzong." Deputy City Guard Shi looked back and said slowly: "After today, at least half of the senior leaders of the human race will be stubborn and want to protect him!" "Everyone in the world knows that Wuchang killed my two sons and wiped out the descendants of the Shi family. I don't know how many people in Gaoliu City are staring at me right now!" "It's not appropriate to take action at this time." Deputy City Guard Shi walked forward. The general followed beside him and whispered, "I heard that there are quite a few people in Gaoliu City who regard him as a thorn in their side." "That was in the past." Deputy City Guard Shi said calmly. "Are we just waiting for an opportunity?" The general whispered, "Our Qifeng Mansion's important event will be delayed..." "Wait for the Lord of Canyu Mansion to leave." Deputy City Guard Shi said slowly with a serious tone: "He has been included in the ranks of the 'Ten Directions'. Looking at Qifeng Mansion, there are no more than one palm who are qualified to fight him!"
"He can also protect Wuchang?" The general took a breath. "He came to Gaoliu City to prevent the battle between Wuchang and Xu Dingye from getting out of control and causing loss of life." Deputy City Guard Shi said slowly, "He came to prevent the two great geniuses of the human race from killing each other... How could he allow the more outstanding Wuchang to be killed here?" "When will he leave?" "do not know……" "What about Xu Dingye's Cloud Thunder Sword?" "Since we have made a mortal enemy of Wuchang, there is no need to tear our faces apart with the lineage of Li Shenzong." Deputy City Guard Shi said calmly: "Besides, Xu Dingye is not very capable and cannot chop off Wuchang's head. It's not his fault." - In the inner city. The Lord of the Canyu Palace stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Although this battle was short, it was really an extremely exciting battle." He said with emotion: "A new generation replaces the old, and the younger generation is better than I was in my day!" "Thank you for the compliment, Lord." The city guard laughed loudly, stroked his beard slightly, and said: "Thanks to the protection of Lord Liu's divine light, Gaoliu City can actually produce a Li Shenzong, how lucky!" The Lord of the Canyu Palace said dimly, "Li Shenzong started practicing a little late. At his age, he has not yet entered the Qi Refining Realm." In an instant, the atmosphere froze for a moment. Then the city guard laughed and said, "Qifeng Prefecture, three hundred years ago, only had one Li Shenzong! Who would have thought that in just a few decades, there would be another Wuchang..." The Lord of Canyu Mansion stopped and said seriously: "Although this boy has not used his true energy, he must have surpassed the realm of refining essence... If Gao Liucheng cannot bear such a person, I can take him to Canyu Mansion." "Although Gaoliu City is not very high, but with Liu Zun here, it can withstand it." The city guard stroked his beard and said, "Master, please don't think about luring the greatest genius in the history of Gaoliu City to Canyu Mansion. Instead..." "Xu Dingye, I'll take him away." The Lord of the Canyu Mansion nodded slightly, and after saying this, he paused and said, "Before I leave, please trouble Gao Liucheng to make secret arrangements. I want to meet Brother Lu again." The city guard nodded: "Understood!" - At the same time, in the main building of the Tianjiansi. The commander counted the silver bills one by one and couldn't help but smile. "You are breaking the law knowingly." The nameless old man stuck his head out and said with a tut, "If I weren't already dead, I would really like to report you." "I'm about to die. How can I earn this little money and save some assets for the next commander of the Tiantian Division?" The commander sighed. "This battle is so grand and has attracted people from all sides. It has already begun..." The old man said solemnly, "The Lord of Canyu Palace is currently stationed in Gaoliu City, but he will leave in less than three days. The subsequent situation will be very troublesome..."
"By using the momentum of this battle, it will be easier to expand the city." The commander paused and said, "Deputy City Guard Shi will not take action for the time being, but it's hard to say about the people who robbed Jin..." He thought for a moment and said, "Tonight, I want to meet with the top leaders of various forces in Gaoliu City!" "For Impermanence?" "Not bad!" "That's enough to value him!" "After today's battle, who wouldn't think highly of him?" The commander said slowly: "Some people think highly of him and would like to cultivate him... while some people think highly of him and would like to kill him... I have to find out the truth tonight!" "Then why don't you arrange someone to protect Wu Chang tonight?" "The City Guard Office doesn't want to see the most outstanding young man in the history of Gaoliu City being killed on the first night of his fame." "You entrusted Wuchang's safety to the City Guard? I thought you would let me go and protect him secretly..." "You are also busy tonight." "Oh? What's the matter?" "Han Zheng's descendants defeated Li Shenzong's descendants! His generation was defeated, but the next generation was victorious. The knot and nightmare of being defeated by Li Shenzong and never being able to turn over should be eliminated." "Can this one battle alone enable Han Zheng to enter the Qi Refining Realm?" "Who has Mr. Lu met the most since he returned to the city?" "That old guy lives in the South District, so he sees Han Zheng the most." "Mr. Lu uses magic talismans on Han Zheng every now and then. Do you think it has no effect?" The commander said quietly, "It cost me two thousand taels of silver to provide Mr. Lu with precious materials for half a year. Otherwise... how could I, a commander, be so poor that I would borrow money from everywhere and make bets secretly to win such dishonorable money?" "You think so highly of Han Zheng?" "After my death, there will be a deputy commander to take my place, but there is no suitable candidate for the deputy commander's position except Han Zheng." "Half a year ago, you were already preparing for what would happen after your death?" "Four years ago, I knew that I had taken the wrong path to the Qi Refining Realm..." The commander said slowly, "Since then, I have been preparing for the stabilization of the situation after my death." "It's hard for you." The nameless old man couldn't help but sigh. "After the establishment of Gaoliu City's Tianshi, I will be the first Zhaoye person!" The commander stood with his hands behind his back, his expression solemn, and said slowly: "Bring peace to the world, stabilize the human race, seek peace, create a prosperous era, and I will never regret it even if I die!" - Linjiangfang. Lin Yan took a shower, changed his clothes, and left a bag of silver at home.
Then he walked around his brother and sister-in-law and came to Lu Gongyuan. Only Mr. Lu was in the courtyard. Lin Yan couldn't help but look around and asked in surprise: "Why isn't Lu Tang here?" "do not know." Mr. Lu shook his head slightly and stretched out his hand. Lin Yan reached into his bosom, took out a few pieces of ancient phoenix blood jade, and placed them on the table. This time he agreed, entered the inner city to fight, and obtained twelve ancient phoenix blood jades. This was given to Gao Liucheng by Deputy Mayor Shi in order to promote the battle and ensure its smooth progress. Previously, I borrowed the Phoenix Blood Ancient Jade from Lord Lu, the priest of Wutong Temple and the commander of the guards. These pieces of ancient phoenix blood jade are used for return. "I thought you would kill me." Mr. Lu suddenly spoke. "The Lord of Canyu Mansion is up there. Isn't he here to stop the 'dead man'?" Lin Yan laughed and said, "Mr. Lu has hinted many times before that he doesn't want me to kill him." "This world is supported by all human beings, not just one person's bravery! Even if someone is as strong as Li Shenzong, it is impossible for him to defend the city alone!" Lord Lu stood up and said slowly: "You are the two youngest heroes in the Qifeng Mansion today. You can die in the darkness, but you should not die at the hands of each other." "If Xu Dingye came here with the intention of killing you, then it would be a life-and-death feud, and I will not interfere." "But he came here with no intention of killing." After a pause, Lord Lu said calmly: "He wanted to defeat you, and you defeated him, that's enough." Lin Yan looked calm and nodded, "Xu Dingye has fought against evil spirits many times in the past and has made great contributions. He has a decent character and has never done evil. He is expected to reach the Qi Refining Realm in the future... So, I didn't kill him." "But your twenty-three strikes broke his momentum." Lord Lu said softly, "His Essence Refining Stage has reached its limit. He had hope of finding the direction of refining essence into Qi... Your twenty-three sword strikes will at least stop him for five years." - Qifeng Prefecture City. Inner city, where the city guards are stationed. "General, the news of the battle in Gaoliu City has arrived." A general came hurriedly to report. "Look at how flustered you are. It seems that Xu Dingye has failed." A calm voice came from inside, saying, "Show me the letter, I will read it myself." (End of this chapter)
