Powerful Physique

Forbidden Land, somewhere in District 11.

Zhang Ze sat down in the shade of a stalagmite.

He let out a long breath.

He then removed his cloak and opened his shirt, revealing a shocking wound on his chest.

He gave a wry smile and said, "Damn it, do we really need to chase after these lunatics from Qingyang City so closely?"

After getting separated from Luo Yan yesterday, he was chased by experts from Qingyang City, who followed him around most of the area.

That's how they managed to escape.

But last night, he and his men were caught up again, and it took them most of the night to escape once more.

However, for this reason, the more than thirty team members he originally brought were also affected.

Now only sixteen remain, and he himself is injured.

After all, Qingyang City is not lacking in experts at Advanced level.

Besides, they also have mechs.

Even at the Advanced level, they couldn't withstand the bombardment from the mechs.

Zhang Ze now regrets his overconfidence in leaving the mecha outside the Forbidden Land area.

Of course, he never expected to be targeted by the authorities and relentlessly pursued all the way.

It was nearly noon.

After Zhang Ze changed the dressing, he sent a few team members out to keep watch while he gathered the rest of the team together.

Including two of his closest confidants.

Wei Junyi Wen Zou.

The former follows a pure martial arts path, reaching the Intermediate Level Two, with fierce and powerful combat techniques.

When facing him, he was a little less courageous and was defeated in just a few moves.

The latter had once been a Daoist priest, though not a proper one.

They're masters of deception and trickery, especially adept at fooling the ignorant masses.

After joining the 'Black Witches', they were taught Visualization Technique and were instructed to specialize in Mystic Art.

Although he was only at the Primary Level Great Perfection, his Divine Treasure was very special and had an extremely high degree of compatibility with Mystic Art.

Therefore, combat strength cannot be simply judged by the level of Visualization Technique.

He glanced at his two trusted confidants.

Zhang Ze said in a deep voice, "If this continues, not only will we not be able to touch the dragon lizard, but we might also lose our lives here."

"Therefore, I plan to abandon the mission."

"Let's rest for a bit, then we'll leave the Forbidden Land immediately."

"As long as the green hills remain, there will always be firewood to burn."

"If we didn't complete the task this year, we can try again next year."

Wei Junyi nodded. "I'll listen to the captain."

Wearing a purple robe and holding an Ancient Book Wen Zou smiled and said, "Captain is wise! I wholeheartedly agree. Oh no, I wholeheartedly agree!"

Wei Junyi gave him a disdainful look, almost spitting out the words "sycophant".

Just then, Wang Feng's men came to report, "Captain, Qingyang's lackeys are here again."

"They're trying to drive us to our deaths," Zhang Ze snorted. He could feel Qingyang's net tightening around them.

It seems we'll soon reach a point where we all have to fight to the death. Wei Junyi voice, "Captain, I'll go scout ahead."

Zhang Ze was about to say something.

Suddenly, a thought struck me.

Then a soft cry was heard from afar, which quickly turned into a muffled shout.

Not long after.

A figure carrying a member of the Xuanming Department arrived nearby, then threw him forcefully at Zhang Ze's feet.

Wen Zou crouched down, examined him, and then looked up and said, "He's not dead, he's just unconscious."

Then, his eyes, which had been closed, opened slightly.

Through that crack, two cold, dark eyes rolled, reflecting the appearance of a person.

He wore a black conical hat and a dark cloak.

Beneath the straw hat, her black hair was disheveled, and her scarlet eyes held an indifferent gaze.

It's as if he has no interest in anything in this world.

Zhang Ze let out a sound of surprise.

Then he heard his trusted Wei Junyi, shout, "Qingyang's lackey?"

Choke!

A long sword held in both hands leaves its sheath, and with a flick of the blade, a murderous aura permeates the air.

But he didn't make a move.

Zhang Ze then pressed his hand against the back of the knife.

"Captain?" Wei Junyi asked, puzzled.

Zhang Ze smiled, shook his head, and then asked the man, "Brother Red Ghost, how did you find this place?"

The visitor was none other than Luo Yan.

In the morning, after they dealt with the mutated Bashe, Luo Yan set off.

They came here based on the information provided by Zeng Guangming.

Upon hearing this...

Luo Yan said indifferently, "The people from Qingyang City are making a high-profile move. I thought they were hunting down dragon lizards, hoping to find some treasure."

"Then they came looking for us."

"I never imagined they were targeting you."

Zhang Ze nodded. "Since you were able to find us, could it be that there's a gap in the encirclement around Qingyang?"

Luo Yan nodded.

"Come with me."

"I'll take you away."

"We're even now."

Zhang Ze knew he was referring to how Zhang Ze had saved Zhang Ze's life yesterday.

At this moment.

Several members of the Xuanming Department surrounded Luo Yan.

One of them said, "Captain, this guy just showed up like that."

"They might be from the Qingyang government."

"They may be offering us a way out, but it could be a dead end."

Zhang Ze actually thought the same thing.

Now his subordinates revealed it.

He hesitated for a moment.

At this moment.

Luo Yan said calmly, "Since that's how it is, do as you please. Let's go our separate ways and accept our fate."

He turned to leave after saying that, but several team members stopped him.

The man who spoke sneered, "What do you think this place is, where you can come and go as you please?"

How would I know if you'd inform Qingyang after you left?

As he spoke, the man reached out and grabbed at Luo Yan's throat.

Unexpectedly, he had just raised his hand.

Suddenly, Luo Yan unleashed a violent aura.

Those red eyes narrowed slightly.

A fist seemed to grow infinitely larger in the player's line of sight.

The team member saw that several Dragon Scales -like things suddenly appeared on the fist.

and.

Several black, keratinous growths appeared on Luo Yan's fist.

Bang!

The team member crossed his arms in time.

Block Luo Yan's Iron Fist.

But they kept retreating.

He let out a scream as both arms exploded, sending bones and blood flying everywhere.

Luo Yan was taken aback.

I never expected that punch to be so powerful.

He didn't even activate his Primal Energy.

With sheer physical strength, he shattered the arms of this warrior at the Primary Level Two Realm.

But Luo Yan also intended to establish his authority.

We won't hold back right now.

He moved closer.

He bent his knee and rammed into her.

The man's chest caved in instantly; though he wasn't completely Bone Shatter, he gushed blood and collapsed dead.

"How dare you!"

Wei Junyi roared.

The long sword was raised.

Primal Energy burst forth.

He pounced on it.

He cleaved the blade towards Luo Yan's head.

A glint flashed in Luo Yan's red eyes, and with a gentle push of his thumb, ' Star Splitter ' was drawn three inches from its sheath.

Just then...

A figure stepped between the two.

Zhang Ze!

He also erupted.

The temperature of the surrounding air suddenly dropped sharply.

Both Luo Yan and Wei Junyi were affected; their bodies felt cold, and the Primal Energy their qi and blood became less smooth.

When Wei Junyi's knife stopped and Luo Yan's sword returned to its sheath.

Zhang Ze shouted, "Stop!"

"Don't ruin the harmony."

He was keen to take Luo Yan under his wing, but naturally did not want his confidants to clash with him.

But this 'Red Demon' was too bloodthirsty; he killed one of his own team members right in front of everyone after a disagreement.

If no explanation is given.

He will likely struggle to gain the respect of the team as captain.

Zhang Ze coughed lightly, about to say something.

Suddenly a voice rang out. "The poaching gang ahead, you are surrounded! Surrender immediately!"
