Chapter 520: Adding Variables
Zhang Ruochen looked over and saw that the man who was talking just now looked in his thirties, his face was a little pale, and his lips were two beards, which were trimmed very neatly, and he still looked quite handsome and elegant.
He and Zhang Ruochen were only three tables apart.
Others could not see through his cultivation, but Zhang Ruochen saw through his strength at a glance.
His cultivation level has reached the state of "innate fetal breathing" in the first place in the ichthy and dragons. His breathing is stable, his blood flows slowly, and his pores in his body seem to be completely open, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
This person has surpassed martial arts and embarked onto the holy path.
How could such a person spread rumors and make trouble for no reason?
Aren't he afraid of offending Zhang Ruochen and the Orange Moon Star Envoy at the same time?
At this moment, the middle-aged man whose cultivation level has reached the first change in the fish and dragon was still sitting on a chair, drinking while talking, without knowing that Zhang Ruochen was sitting not far from him.
"It is said that the master of the Orange Moon Star Envoy is the Ghost Saint in the Nine Death Cave. Zhang Ruochen actually dared to abuse the Ghost Saint's disciples like this, and was not afraid that the Ghost Saint would take action and refine him into a ghost child?" said an old man.
The middle-aged man smiled: "No matter how powerful Zhang Ruochen is, he is just a young child in his early twenties. How could Gui Sheng lower himself to deal with him?"
Another warrior said: "Even if the Ghost Saint does not take action, the three disciples of the Ghost Saint will not be able to stand this breath. It would be strange if they don't tear Zhang Ruochen apart."
"It makes sense. After all, the Orange Moon Star Envoy is their junior sister. It is said that the third disciple of the Ghost Saint, Yin Wuchang, has been pursuing the Orange Moon Star Envoy. If he hears this news, he will probably be crazy."
"If he is crazy, Zhang Ruochen will be in trouble! Even if Zhang Ruochen tops the "Heavenly List", he can only be regarded as a mortal martial artist. How could he be better than the third disciple of the Ghost Saint? It is said that the third disciple of the Ghost Saint has long entered the Fish and Dragon Realm, and his cultivation is unfathomable. He is a master who has been famous for a long time in the evil path."
...
Half an hour later, the middle-aged man seemed to feel that he had said almost the same thing, so he got up and left and walked out of the tavern.
Zhang Ruochen immediately checked the bill and followed.
Zhang Ruochen really wanted to know what the person is from? Why did he deliberately spread rumors in the tavern?
After all, the middle-aged man is a master of the Fish and Dragon Realm, and Zhang Ruochen did not deliberately hide his aura.
So, the middle-aged man soon noticed that someone was following him. So, when he walked to a relatively secluded place, he stopped, stood there, did not turn around, and secretly mobilized his true energy, and said coldly: "Who is it, haven't you come out yet?"
"Dada."
Zhang Ruochen walked to the center of the street with steady footwork, stood ten feet behind the middle-aged man, and said, "You were in the tavern just now, and you were always mentioning my name, why? Don't you even think of me?"
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, he immediately turned around, looked at the young warrior standing not far away, and said in surprise: "Are you Zhang Ruochen?"
Zhang Ruochen said lightly: "Tell me! Who are you? Who made you spread these rumors?"
The middle-aged man did not intend to answer Zhang Ruochen. His legs were slightly apart, and every inch of his muscles were tense. Inside his sleeves, ten fingers were pinched tightly, turning into two fists, and making a fight.
Although he had broken through the martial arts barrier and entered the fish and dragon realm, he still didn't have much confidence in himself, because the enemy he was facing was Zhang Ruochen, the number one in the "Heaven List".
He was like a huge bull, and Zhang Ruochen was a fierce wolf king.
Although Manniu's body looks taller, stronger and more powerful than the Wolf King, Manniu is quite clear that he is not a match for the Wolf King.
At this moment, the middle-aged man was like that bull, very scared, but had to fight desperately.
"The landslides and the earth breaks."
The middle-aged man yelled, raised his arms, and the surging true energy flowed between his hands.
Then, he punched the ground with a sudden punch.
A powerful energy rushed into the ground, making a "hurrying" sound, lifting all the stone slabs on the streets.
Each of those stone slabs is two meters thick and weighs tens of thousands of pounds.
Dozens of stone slabs were rolled upside down. Under the stimulation of the fist, the stone slabs rubbed violently with the air, forming red fireworks, like flame meteorites, flying towards Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen was still in place, looking at the flying flames and stone slabs, looking calm. He just stretched out a palm, pressed into the void, and shot out a palm force.
The powerful palm power turned into an undercurrent hurricane and rushed out.
"Bang!"
All the stone slabs flew backwards at a faster rate, counterattacking the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man's face changed, he immediately used his body skills and rushed backwards, preparing to escape from this place.
"Boom!"
The stone slabs fell on the ground and hit big pits, and the entire street became fragmented in an instant.
"What a terrible Zhang Ruochen. He is so powerful before he reaches the Yulong Realm. Will he still be able to reach the Yulong Realm?"
The middle-aged man kept sweating on his forehead and ran forward desperately, just wanting to get farther away from Zhang Ruochen as possible.
"Where are you going?"
At some point, Zhang Ruochen had already appeared in front of him and blocked his way.
The middle-aged man immediately stopped, bit his teeth, and a cold look appeared in his eyes, ready to take action again.
"Zhang Ruochen, I'll fight with you!"
"Wow!"
A bright sword light flashed in front of the middle-aged man's eyes. The next moment, a cold sword had already hit his neck.
The middle-aged man felt the chill from his neck and his whole body trembled. The moves he had originally planned to attack were also stopped in the air, and his body seemed to have become petrified and he didn't dare to move.
"What a quick sword technique!"
A look of fear finally appeared in the middle-aged man's eyes.
Zhang Ruochen pinched the hilt of the sword with one hand, concentrated his mental power in his eyes, stared at the middle-aged man, and said, "Tell me! Who are you? Don't go around with me, otherwise I will let your head fly out immediately."
The middle-aged man was shocked by Zhang Ruochen's mental power, and he became listless, lost his energy and said a little dull: "Xu...Xu Longyi."
Zhang Ruochen said: "People from the Xu Sheng family?"
"I am just a descendant of the Xu Sheng family, not a child of the direct bloodline. I am just obeying orders. In fact, we have no grievances and no grudges. Please spare my life." Xu Longyi said carefully.
He was afraid that if he said a wrong word, he would anger Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen said: "You don't have to be so scared. As long as you honestly explain, I can let you live. Tell me, who asked you to do this? What is the purpose of doing this?"
Xu Longyi was obviously relieved and said, "It's Xu Hai, he also came to Chaos Ten Thousand Worlds Mountain. He came to kill you under the order of his ancestors."
Zhang Ruochen and Xu Sheng family have always had grudges, and they almost reached a situation where water and fire are incompatible.
The news that Zhang Ruochen became the number one in the "Heaven List" was shocked after it was passed back to the Eastern Region.
As a saint family with a long history, the Xu Sheng family knows the weight of a genius more than anyone else.
Perhaps, now, Zhang Ruochen cannot threaten them, but what will happen in fifty years or a hundred years?
As long as Zhang Ruochen reaches the holy realm, it will be a disaster for Xu Sheng family.
So, no matter what, the Xu Sheng family must get rid of Zhang Ruochen before he grows up.
The three-sword and half-saint of the Xu Sheng family personally ordered Xu Hai to lead four powerful men from the Yulong Realm to the Chaos Ten Thousand Worlds Mountain, and it is necessary to kill Zhang Ruochen in the battlefield of the Ruins.
Xu Longyi is one of the four powerful people in the Yulong Realm sent by the Xu Sheng family. Of course, he is also the weakest of the four.
Xu Longyi continued to preach: "The reason why Xu Hai asked me to spread rumors is actually to anger the evil warriors in the black market, and to get rid of you with the help of those evil warriors."
"Xu Hai is also a character, and he can actually think of ways to kill people with a knife." Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.
Last time, in the Five Elements Ruins Realm, Zhang Ruochen killed Xu Qing, the descendant of the Xu Sheng family.
Unexpectedly, the Xu Sheng family did not learn from the lessons and actually sent a second successor to deal with Zhang Ruochen.
Xu Hai is the descendant of the previous generation of the Xu Sheng family. He entered the Holy Academy ten years ago. In terms of talent and cultivation, he was far ahead of Xu Qing.
Instead of being plotted against others, it is better to take the initiative.
In a moment, Zhang Ruochen had a plan in his mind and asked, "Where is Xu Hai?"
Xu Longyi hesitated for a moment, but under Zhang Ruochen's mental power, he finally said: "Xu Hai should be meeting with the Green Robe Star Envoy of the Yipin Hall of the Black Market. They plan to join forces to deal with you. Moreover, I heard that the third disciple of the Ghost Saint, Yin Wuchang, has come to the Chaos Ten Thousand Worlds Mountain and speaks to refine you into a deceased ghost child."
Zhang Ruochen smiled and said, "While Xu Hai spread rumors, intensifying the conflict between me and the black market. At the same time, he formed an alliance with the black market and was preparing to join forces to deal with me. The successor of the Xu Sheng family should not be underestimated."
Xu Longyi asked, "I have told you all the things I should say. You can let me go now, right?"
Zhang Ruochen retracted his mental power, turned his arm, and took back the ancient sword of Chenyuan, and said freely: "You go!"
"Just let me go?"
Although Zhang Ruochen withdrew his mental power, Xu Longyi did not relax at all, but became even more nervous. He didn't believe that Zhang Ruochen would be so kind and really let him go with pleasure.
Is it possible?
He was very suspicious. The moment he turned around, Zhang Ruochen would accidentally swing his sword and cut off his head.
