Tang Family Fort disciples
In the sky, several Deity Transformation Stage Cultivators from the Qingxu Sword Sect, Weituo Temple, and Tiandao Sect appeared out of nowhere. Man Kui and Xiao Xiao, though only two people, did not show any fear as they went to meet them. As Asura Sect Disciple the Major Sect, the Shura Sect, how could they be afraid of a few of them? However, as one could see, a violent bombing sound rang out above Shuzhong City, and the Heaven and Earth Vital Energy fluctuated, as if the sky was about to collapse.
In the Shuzhong City, many people looked up at the sky. The night sky was pitch black, and nothing could be seen except for the sharp Sword Qi shooting through the air and the powerful Qi Energy piercing through Heaven and Earth. This was yet another battle between Deity Transformation Stage Cultivator.
Niu Geng, sitting in the Restaurant, paid no attention to the battle in the sky. That level of fighting was beyond his reach. Niu Geng sat cross-legged on the bed, calming his mind and continuously regulating the Qi Energy within his body.
Although Hall Master Xiao Xiao used her Spirit Qi into Rain to heal his injuries, it only healed the physical wounds. The internal injuries left by this battle still need to be carefully addressed.
"Knock knock knock..." Just then, a series of urgent knocks sounded on Niu Geng's door, and a male voice rang out from outside, "Is Young Master Niu in? Something's happened."
"Something's happened?" Hearing the voice at the door, Niu Geng was slightly startled. He then opened the door, and a man dressed as a servant looked at Niu Geng with urgency and anxiety, saying, "Young Master Niu, the person you asked us to keep an eye on has been arrested."
"They've been arrested?" Upon hearing this, Niu Geng's expression changed. He naturally understood who the other person was referring to.
That day, after leaving the Li Manor, they captured a guard and the mad young master of the Li Manor. The guard was killed, but the mad young master of the Li Manor was imprisoned in Restaurant by Zhuge Xiang and his men. Unexpectedly, he was rescued.
"Niu Geng, is something wrong?" The door across the hall was suddenly flung open, and Zi Xiang rushed out. She had obviously heard the commotion from Niu Geng's side. It was the middle of the night; it would be strange if Zi Xiang, who lived right across the hall, hadn't heard it.
"Li Manor has been arrested! Let's go see!" Niu Geng didn't have time to explain in detail. He hurriedly left these words and rushed towards the Wood Shed where Young Master Li Manor was being held. Zi Xiang was also slightly startled, and then quickly followed Niu Geng out.
The Wood Shed the young master of the Li Manor was imprisoned was not in a messy state, except that the Wood Shed was open, and it was pitch black outside. The bolt on the window was obviously broken from the outside by brute force.
"Did you see who made the move?" At this moment, the servant who had reported the news also followed Niu Geng and Zi Xiang back to the Wood Shed, panting. Niu Geng turned around and asked.
"At the time, I was following orders and waiting outside the Wood Shed when I suddenly heard a strange noise inside. I rushed in to check, but I couldn't see the other person clearly. I only saw a dark figure carrying the man you asked us to guard, and running out of the window. Then I immediately informed you, Young Master Niu."
"There's still time, go after them!" Hearing the servant's words, and estimating that it wouldn't take him long to make the round trip, Niu Geng said urgently. Before he finished speaking, he had already squeezed out of the window. Zi Xiang naturally followed Niu Geng and ran out of the window together.
With Qin Qing in his arms, Zhuge Xiang lay on the bed, his mind drifting to his mission. When he arrived in Shu and learned of the destruction of Tang Family Fort from Niu Geng, he received a mission to the Destroy the Li Family, requiring him to kill more than 90% of the Li Family members. The reward for the mission was also very generous, a full 5 million experience points, as well as the recipe for Super Spirit Qi Secret Medicine.
Of course, the punishment for the mission was also severe, with a three-level drop and the loss of all equipment. Now, the people from the Qingxu Sword Sect and other forces have been dealt with. The Li Family is not a big problem. After all, the War Hall Master, Man Kui, promised Zhuge Xiang a Squad Leader position, which is a high position that commands tens of thousands of the Inner Sect Cultivator. In terms of status, it is second only to the three hall Hall Master.
Just as Zhuge Xiang was pondering when he would send people to wipe out the Li Family after he took over the position of Squad Leader, his ears suddenly twitched slightly as he heard a sound coming from Zhuge Xiang Niu Geng's room.
Although Zhuge Xiang's room was some distance from Niu Geng's room, it was very quiet at night, so they noticed the news from there.
"Qin Qing, you rest first. I have some things to do and will be back soon," Zhuge Xiang said softly as he sat up and looked at Qin Qing, who had been awakened by his movements.
"Okay, hurry back." The strength Zhuge Xiang displayed tonight was enough to reassure Qin Qing. Although she didn't understand why Zhuge Xiang was going out so late, Qin Qing also feeling lazy after their Wushan and said softly.
Zhuge Xiang got up and dressed quickly, but by the time he reached the Wood Shed, Niu Geng and Zi Xiang had already jumped out of the window some time ago. After learning from the waiter at the Restaurant which Niu Geng and Zi Xiang had gone in the opposite direction, Zhuge Xiang lightly touched the windowsill with his foot and chased after them.
Although the Phoenix Feather Wings were faster, they also consumed Qi Energy quickly. Zhuge Xiang, after all, was only at the Third Layer of the Innate Realm. In just a moment, he saw Niu Geng and Zi Xiang. However, in the distance, he also saw a dark figure carrying the young master of the Li Family.
Niu Geng and Zi Xiang were both at the Void Splitting Realm, while the person who carried the young master of the Li Family away was also only at the Void Splitting Realm. Although he set off a little earlier than Niu Geng, his speed was greatly affected by carrying a person, and in no time, Niu Geng had blocked his way.
"Who are you? Don't you know this person is a prisoner of our Asura Sect?" Niu Geng and Zi Xiang blocked the other party's path from the front and back. Niu Geng asked in a deep voice.
The figure carrying Young Master Li was dressed in Nightstalker Garb, her face completely covered. However, the dress revealed a graceful figure, suggesting she was a young woman. Seeing Niu Geng and Zi Xiang surrounding her from the front and back, the Black-Clad Veiled Woman was clearly flustered.
"It seems we'll have to take matters into our own hands," Niu Geng said in a deep voice, seeing that the woman didn't answer. As he spoke, he opened his jet-black palm, unleashing a sharp palm strike mixed with black Toxins, and slapped it towards her.
Zi Xiang's hand trembled, and with a whooshing sound, a silver Nine-Section Whip, like Jiao Dragon emerging from the sea, wrapped around the woman in black. Zi Xiang originally used a pair of daggers as weapons, but now, this Nine-Section Whip was clearly more powerful than those daggers.
With a gasp, the girl, though also at the Void Splitting Realm, was carrying a person on her shoulder. When attacked by Niu Geng and Niu Geng together, despite her higher cultivation level, she was instantly suppressed by the two and found herself in grave danger.
Although she hailed from Shu, where various traps Toxins were common and difficult to defend against, it was clear at a glance that this woman in black would be subdued by Niu Geng and his companion within a short time. If the situation became too dire, she might even be poisoned to death by Niu Geng and his companion.
In Shuzhong City, Zhuge Xiang landed on a rooftop not far away, watching Niu Geng and Zi Xiang work together to deal with the woman in black. He figured they would be fine, so he decided to stay up there and didn't go down to help. Besides, Zhuge Xiang also wanted to hide in the shadows and observe what was going on between Zi Xiang and Niu Geng.
"Please hold your fire, gentlemen. My Younger Sister has offended you both with her behavior. Please forgive her." Just as the situation with the woman in black was becoming increasingly critical, a sound of clothes tearing through the wind rang out, and then three more figures rushed towards them.
There were two men and one woman, all in their early twenties, with varying levels of cultivation. The strongest among them had already reached the Innate Realm.
Born into the Asura Sect, Niu Geng was considered an enforcer in this Shuzhong City. How could he stop just because someone told him to? However, seeing the three people rapidly approaching, Niu Geng's expression changed slightly with surprise, and he exclaimed in a low voice, "You are... people from Tang Family Fort?"
While Niu Geng was still in shock, the woman in black dodged the attack of the Zi Xiang Nine-Section Whip, slipped and passed by Niu Geng, flashing to the side of the three Tang Family Fort Disciples. Ignoring Niu Geng, she hurriedly said to the two men and one woman, "Third Brother, Sixth Brother, Eighth Sister, why did you come out?"
"Thirteenth Sister, we haven't seen you for quite a while. We assumed you must have run away on your own. We didn't expect you to actually come here," said the leading man, a cultivator at the First Layer of Innate Realm, who appeared to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. He first gave the woman in black a reproachful look, then stepped forward and clasped his hands in greeting to Niu Geng, saying, "Greetings to the two from the Asura Sect."
Looking at the man approaching and bowing respectfully to him, Niu Geng's eyes were filled with complex emotions. Although he had spent several years in the Asura Sect and the man's appearance had matured, Niu Geng, who was originally from Tang Family Fort, could hardly fail to recognize him.
"Third Young Master, I didn't expect it to be you," Niu Geng said in a slightly hoarse voice after a moment of silence.
Although he had escaped from Tang Family Fort, Niu Geng had grown up Tang Family Fort, and Tang Family Fort was practically his home. Seeing Tang Family Fort suffer such a massacre, and then seeing these familiar faces from Tang Family Fort, Niu Geng felt a mix of emotions, like a spilled jar of vinegar.
"Oh? These people are actually from Tang Family Fort?" Zhuge Xiang, who was on the roof, was slightly taken aback when he heard Niu Geng and the men and women below talking, and he showed no intention of going down.
"And who are you?" The Tang Family Fort family members were surprised to hear Niu Geng say "Third Young Master," even though they only knew that he was from the Asura Sect.
Niu Geng left when he was fourteen, and now he's eighteen. His appearance has changed drastically since then. Furthermore, Niu Geng was merely a menial servant in Tang Family Fort. Therefore, although they felt Niu Geng face was vaguely familiar, these people didn't recognize Niu Geng. (To be continued...)
