Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer Peak's pressure is like a mountain toppling over, unleashed brazenly.

The old man's face changed drastically and his pupils shrank sharply. "You--!"

Zhou Qi Gale Step ran instantly, and at the same time Army-Breaking Fist punched out.

This punch contained all the power of Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer, as fast as lightning and as heavy as a stone.

Although the old man was prepared for it, he never expected that Zhou Qi would explode so quickly. He hurriedly raised his palms to block, but it was already too late.

The fist hit his chest, and the sound of broken ribs could be heard clearly.

The old man flew backwards, knocked over a carriage, fell to the ground, and spurted out a mouthful of blood.

The whole place was dead silent.

The servants stood there, as if someone had strangled their necks, unable to say a word.

At this time, the old man in gray robe was lying on the ground, his chest collapsed, and he was leaning sideways and vomiting blood.

Zhou Qi looked at the scene in front of him calmly.

This was a scene he had long expected.

As soon as I walked onto the street, I noticed someone staring at me. It happened that there was Foundation Establishment, Fifth Layer in the convoy.

This is Foundation Establishment, Fifth Layer, and he can handle it easily.

If someone with greater strength came to ambush him, he would return home as soon as he realized something was wrong.

The old man struggled to stand up, his eyes filled with disbelief.

This person looks like he is only in his twenties, but he is actually Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer?!

Ignoring the severe pain in his chest, he turned over and climbed up. In a flash, he climbed onto the roof of the street and fled towards the outside of the city without looking back.

Zhou Qi did not pursue.

If you really chase him, he won't be able to escape, but there is no need to build a feud with the Lu Family.

He stood there and watched the old man's back disappear from sight.

The sound of rapid footsteps and the sound of gongs could be heard in the distance.

A group of soldiers rushed out from the street corner, led by a captain named Ninth Layer of Qi Refinement.

He had been standing not far away for a long time, waiting for Zhou Qi to lie on the ground before he stepped forward to clean up the mess.

But the result was not what he thought. The young man stood there calmly.

That Lu Family worshiped but was seriously injured and escaped.

He didn't know what to do, so he had no choice but to step forward and ask questions.

Masters with this kind of strength are all well-known figures in Yongjing City.

If you ask something unpleasant and get slapped to death, you won't be able to find anyone to reason with.

"My lord, what happened here?" the captain stepped forward and said with a smile on his face.

"Someone attacked me on the spot. That person was worshiped by the Lu Family. Now he has escaped." Zhou Qi said truthfully.

"Oh, I wonder if the master is injured?"

"No problem."

"Then, sir, can you go to the Yamen and make a record?" the captain said flatteringly, "I can't help it. This is a rule issued by the top management..."

Zhou Qi stared at the captain with bright eyes. "Wait!"

"Ah? Oh, okay, then wait for a while." The captain responded quickly after realizing.

Zhou Qi is waiting for Yao Qing.

It's best not to go to the Yamen. Yao Qing can handle such trivial matters.

There was a rapid sound of horse hooves in the distance.

Yao Qing arrived with several servants of Yao Residence, got off his horse, and walked quickly.

He glanced at Zhou Qi to confirm that he was not injured, then turned to the captain and took out a piece of Token from his sleeve. "Yao Residence Yao Qing, I Yao Family will handle this matter on my own without City Defense Army having to worry about it."

The captain took Token and took a look at it. His face changed slightly, and he bowed and said, "Yes."

Then he took his men and stepped aside.

Yao Qing glanced at the Lu Family team, then looked at Zhou Qi: "Lu Family over there..."

"No need to make enemies, I didn't kill that person." Zhou Qi responded,

Yao Qing also doesn't want to get into trouble with the Lu Family.

So he nodded and said to the servants of the Lu Family: "If I don't kill you, get out of here!"

The servants were relieved and hurried away in the carriage.

Yao Qing looked at Zhou Qi: "Go back to the other courtyard first?"

Zhou Qi shook his head and said, "No need, we agreed to capture Treasure Pavilion today."

"Now that you're here, let's go over there and hand over the situation directly on the spot."

Yao Qing nodded and couldn't help but asked again, "Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer Peak?"

Zhou Qi looked directly at the other party and nodded lightly.

Yao Qing stared at Zhou Qi, a string of memories flashed in his eyes.

That was the Zhou Qi he saw at the Yang Family eight months ago. Although he was high-spirited, it was far from the current momentum.

In just eight months, I went through all the hardships to move from Foundation Establishment, First Layer to the second floor.

The young man in front of me has worked all the way from Ninth Layer of Qi Refinement to Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer Peak.

What is genius?

Genius is just the threshold for seeing Zhou Qi.

I can't even reach the threshold.

"Well, let's go!" Yao Qing replied after a long time.

Lu Residence At the back door, a gray figure fell from the wall.

When he landed, his legs softened and he knelt directly on the ground.

He held his hands on the ground and tried to stand up, but a sharp pain came from his chest, and he fell down again.

Several servants heard the sound and rushed over. They thought it was some blind guy who dared to break into the Lu Family. When they got closer, they discovered that it was the chief worshipper Zhao Song.

At this moment, he was covered in blood, his chest was collapsed, and blood was still oozing from the corners of his mouth.

"Zhao Gongfeng!" A servant screamed and hurriedly tried to help him.

Zhao Song pushed him away, gritted his teeth and said, "Go... go and invite the young master."

My voice was hoarse like sandpaper, and I had to gasp for a long time every word.

The servants looked at each other, and one of them ran inside.

The remaining two people carefully helped Zhao Song up and carried him to the house.

Zhao Song felt a heartbreaking pain in his chest every time he took a step, but he didn't say a word, but his face became paler and paler.

Lu Junyi is drinking tea in the study.

When the news came, the tea cup in his hand paused.

"Severely injured?" He put down the tea cup, stood up, and frowned slightly, "How serious is the injury?"

The servant who reported the news knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head. "Back to the young master, Zhao Gongfeng's chest has collapsed and he can't walk steadily."

Lu Junyi said nothing and strode out of the study.

Zhao Song has been helped into the side hall, leaning on the back of the chair, his face as pale as paper.

His gray robe was mostly soaked with blood, and there was a hole in the clothes on his chest, revealing the purple skin underneath.

Several servants hurriedly bandaged him, but he had injured his internal organs and Dantian, and the bandages were of no use.

Lu Junyi walked into the side hall and everyone stepped aside.

He stood in front of Zhao Song and looked down at the enshrinement that had been with him for more than ten years.

Foundation Establishment, Fifth Layer, Lu Residence is a master that can be counted among all, and now he is beaten like this.

"Say." He only said one word.

Zhao Song struggled to get up and salute, but was held down by Lu Junyi.

He took a few breaths and told the story intermittently.

From Zhou Qi hiding his strength, to deliberately consuming his Spiritual Power, to the last punch, Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer Peak's full blow, he couldn't stop it at all.

"One punch." After Zhao Song said these two words, he coughed out another mouthful of blood, "Sir, that person... is Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer Peak."

The side hall was so quiet that you could hear the crackling of candles burning.

Lu Junyi stood there, frowning, motionless.

"Go down and recuperate." After a long time, Lu Junyi spoke, his voice calm.

"Also, go to the warehouse to apply for a Mysterious-Grade Essence-Gathering Pill."

"Tell me my name."

A servant nodded in agreement, and several other servants quickly stepped forward and helped Zhao Song out.

Lu Junyi was the only person left in the side hall.

He stood for a while, then turned and walked back to the study.

"A guard of Foundation Establishment, Third Layer."

"Just hit it and the Dantian will be destroyed."

"I owe you a favor."

Lu Junyi recalled what Yao Ke said.

What's the result? Foundation Establishment, Sixth Layer Peak, this is not beating, this is death.

Now he is angry when he thinks of Yao Ke's understatement when he said "it's a trivial matter".

Originally, he thought that he was just a guard, so it was okay to sell Yao Ke a favor.

Haha.

Lu Junyi stopped and the anger on his face gradually disappeared.

Regardless of whether Yao Ke knew Zhou Qi's true strength, he was used as a weapon.

If Yao Ke knew, then he was intentionally harming him.

If Yao Ke doesn't know that he doesn't even know who his brother's subordinates are, then this Yao Ke is much stupider than he imagined.
