"Senior Sister Huang, if I pretend to be Pavilion Master Lei's secret disciple, will it anger Pavilion Master Lei if word gets out?" Zhang Ruochen pulled Huang Yanchen aside and asked in a low voice.
"probably not."
Huang Yanchen said: "You may not know that Master Lei Pavilion values you very much. It was he who ordered you to be treated like a student of the "Earth Ranking", and all training resources will be tilted towards you. Because of this matter, within
Gong Academy also caused quite a stir."
Zhang Ruochen was a little confused and said: "I have never met that Lei Pavilion Master, why does he care about me so much?"
Huang Yanchen said: "Lei Pavilion Master is in charge of the Silver-robed Elder Pavilion and has a high position. Although he is not a golden-robed elder, he is stronger than many golden-robed elders. He must have valued your potential, so he wanted to accept you as
Disciple, if you can become his disciple, you will gain a big backer. From now on, in the thirty-six counties of Tianmoling, I am afraid that few people will dare to provoke you."
"Of course, don't be too happy too early. Pavilion Master Lei also said that if you cannot become a top ten student in the Inner Palace Academy within one year, your treatment as a student on the "Earth Ranking" will be cancelled.
"
"I didn't care at all." Zhang Ruochen said with a smile: "It is certainly a good thing to be treated like a student of the "Diban". At the same time, it also pushed me to the forefront and became the target that all students want to challenge."
Huang Yanchen said: "Perhaps this is the experience Master Lei Pavilion gave you. Although your current martial arts cultivation level is already very strong, you are still too young after all. You are still not as good as the top ten students from the Inner Palace Academy."
A small gap.”
"If you can enter the top ten of the academy within a year, maybe Lord Lei Pavilion will personally accept you as a disciple, and may even guarantee you admission to the Holy Academy in the future."
"Just let it happen! Martial arts practice is just one step at a time. I don't know what level I will reach in one year." Zhang Ruochen said with a smile.
Chang Qiqi came over, stared at Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen who were standing side by side, with a somewhat puzzled look in her eyes, and shouted from a distance: "Junior Sister Huang, Junior Brother Chen, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Ruochen turned around and said with a smile: "We are talking about the recent situation in Yunwu County."
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen saw the confused look in Chang Qiqi's eyes, and immediately understood, he immediately moved his steps and put some distance between himself and Huang Yanchen.
You must know that his current identity is Chen Ruo, the secret disciple of the master of the Yinpao Elder Pavilion, while Huang Yanchen's identity is Zhang Ruochen's fiancée. It is indeed inappropriate for his current identity to be too close to Huang Yanchen.
Chang Qiqi is short and thin, and looks to be only 1.6 meters tall. She has dark skin, thick black eyebrows, a high nose, eyes that are only the size of mung beans, and an ancient bronze sword on her back, giving people a short and lean look.
With a smile on his face at all times, he said: "I understand the current situation of Yunwu County better than you do. Starting a month ago, our Wushi Academy and Wushi Bank joined forces, and with the assistance of the official forces of Yunwu County, the black market
We fought hard with the major branches of the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult, more than thirty of them were wiped out, and more than 10,000 evil warriors were killed. It was truly a bloody storm."
"Except for some deeply hidden sub-rudder forces, all other evil people fled towards the royal city."
"I estimate that the final decisive battle will definitely take place in the royal city."
Zhang Ruochen frowned slightly and said: "Wushi Academy and Wushi Bank suppressed them too hard. The black market and the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect will definitely fight back. The evil warriors from the surrounding counties will definitely come over. By then, I don't know how bad the situation will be.
It’s chaos. I wonder if the army in the royal city can control the situation?”
Chang Qiqi smiled and said: "We only deal with the black market and the evil warriors of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect. As for the situation in the royal city, it is up to the people in power in the royal family to worry about it."
The black market, the Wushi Academy, the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect, and even the Yuntai Sect have all intervened, and the entire royal city must have been turned upside down. Even if there are many experts in the palace, there may not be peace.
Zhang Ruochen is still a little worried. After all, there are relatives he cares about in the royal city.
"I must rush to the royal city immediately." Zhang Ruochen said.
As soon as Zhang Ruochen finished speaking, there was a whistling sound from the treetops, and a black figure flashed past at an extremely fast speed.
A dead leaf fell from above.
"who?"
Zhang Ruochen's eyes became sharp, his arm stretched out like lightning, and he pinched the dead leaf with two fingers.
The spiritual fire energy surged out of the body and enveloped the dead leaves.
With a flick of his finger, the dead leaves continued to spin in the spiritual fire, flew out, and cut off the trunk of a big tree as thick as a bowl with a bang.
A black shadow flew out from behind the tree trunk, jumped more than ten meters high, and landed on the branch of another big tree.
He was wearing a black robe and a scarf. He was tall and thin, with piercing eyes. He was definitely a martial arts master.
"Haha! You are so naive, do you think you can still rush to the royal city?" the man in black laughed.
"Who are you?" Zhang Ruochen asked.
"Kill your people." The man in black said coldly.
Chang Qiqi rolled her eyes and said: "Tch! Who can't talk big words? We have three inner palace students here, you can kill us? Unless you are a martial arts legend in the Tianji realm, it's almost the same, but I
You don’t seem to be that strong.”
"What about the inner palace students? Over the years, our black market seems to have killed quite a few inner palace students." The man in black said disdainfully.
"Are you from the black market?" Zhang Ruochen raised his eyes slightly, expressing some suspicion.
Although the other party is masked, just by listening to his voice, you can tell that he is definitely no older than thirty years old. When did another young master appear in the black market?
"That's right." The man in black said loudly.
Zhang Ruochen continued to ask: "Which force in the black market are you a member of?"
"You are all going to be dead, why should I tell you?" The man in black let out a sharp laugh.
He blended his true energy into his voice and performed a sonic martial art called Da Yin Xuanxu.
Under the vibration of the sound waves, the air was like water waves, attacking Zhang Ruochen and the three of them layer by layer.
The moment the sound wave sounded, all the birds within a radius of tens of feet were killed by the sound wave and fell from the trees.
"Snapped!"
The trunk of a dead tree next to Zhang Ruochen was cracked by the sound waves.
Even with Zhang Ruochen's current level of cultivation, under the attack of sound waves, he felt the blood in his whole body surge and his eardrums hurt. The sound waves in the air were like sharp blades, cutting his skin and causing pain.
Huang Yanchen's face turned pale. Under the sonic attack, he kept retreating and seemed to have been injured.
You must know that her cultivation has reached the late stage of the Earthly Realm, and she still cannot block the sound wave. If she had been replaced by a lower-level Earthly Realm warrior, she would have been seriously injured at this moment.
Among those present, Chang Qiqi had the highest level of martial arts cultivation, having reached the extreme level of the Earth's Ultimate Realm. He was also a second-class genius, with considerable strength and could withstand the sonic attack of the man in black.
"I'll come and meet you for a while."
Chang Qiqi rushed forward, and the sword on his back flew out of the sheath and fell into his hand. He held the sword in both hands and slashed out a sword energy that was more than ten meters long.
The sword energy broke through the sound waves and slashed towards the man in black.
"boom!"
The sword energy cut off more than ten large trees around, clearing a large area of the mountain forest.
The body of the man in black jumped up again, like a big black bird, standing lightly on the top of the branch, and said with a smile: "As expected of the 41st ranked master of Wu City Academy, his sword skills are pretty good."
"The speed of an average Dzogchen warrior in the Earth's Ultimate Realm is only one hundred and twenty meters per second. The speed he burst out just now was at least one hundred and forty meters per second. This person is not an ordinary person. Junior Sister Huang, Junior Brother Chen
, you go first, I will stop him." Chang Qiqi's face was solemn, she stood with her sword horizontally, staring at the man in black as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Let's go first!" Zhang Ruochen said.
Zhang Ruochen also saw clearly that the man in black was indeed quite powerful. Even if the three of them put together, they might not be his opponent.
Huang Yanchen was a little worried and said, "Senior Brother Chang, can you stop that man in black?"
"Can't stop it."
Zhang Ruochen said: "However, the man in black is obviously coming for the two of us. His target is not Senior Brother Chang."
"How do you know that his target is us?" Huang Yanchen was even more curious, staring closely at Zhang Ruochen.
"Let's get out of here first."
Zhang Ruochen looked back and saw that the man in black had already started fighting with Chang Qiqi and said: "Don't worry about Senior Brother Chang. Even Hua Qingshan can't kill Senior Brother Chang. This shows that Senior Brother Chang's ability to save his life is absolutely top-notch."
Without further delay, Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen used the wind-controlling flying dragon shadow technique at the same time and escaped as fast as possible. It didn't take long before they were hundreds of miles away.
On the mountain road, only two illusory afterimages could be seen, running forward rapidly.
"Zhang Ruochen, what's going on? How do you know that that person is coming for us?" Huang Yanchen asked again.
"Because he is not an evil warrior in the black market at all."
Zhang Ruochen said: "The man in black knew Senior Brother Chang's ranking in Wu City Academy without asking his name. Don't you think it's strange?"
When Zhang Ruochen reminded him, Huang Yanchen also reacted and said: "It's really strange. It seems that the man in black must have known Senior Brother Chang before. Could it be that... that man in black is also a student of Wu City Academy?"
"Not necessarily only students from Wu City Academy know Senior Brother Chang."
Zhang Ruochen said: "There are so many sects in Tianmo Martial City, and the disciples of any sect may have seen Senior Brother Chang. Although we can't judge the identity of the man in black yet, but since the other party lied about it, it was a black market
The evil warriors among them must have ulterior motives, and it is definitely not just as simple as wanting to kill three inner palace students of the Martial City Academy."
Huang Yanchen said: "You and Senior Brother Chang's identities are not special. The other party should not come specifically to kill you. He probably comes to deal with me."
"maybe!"
The two of them moved forward rapidly, at a speed exceeding 100 meters per second, without daring to stop at all.
When it got dark, they had already reached 700 miles away. Only they could travel at such a fast speed. If it were any other Jiji realm warriors, they would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago.
After nightfall, Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen temporarily stopped on their way and stayed in a dilapidated mountain temple to prepare to restore their consumed energy.
Zhang Ruochen stood in front of the dilapidated temple gate, looking at the dim night, his eyes a little solemn.
The air was cold and dark clouds covered the sky, as if a huge storm was brewing.
After Huang Yanchen regained his energy, he also walked out, looked at Zhang Ruochen's expression, and said: "That man in black shouldn't catch up so quickly. Besides, even if he catches up, with our strength, he may not be able to catch up."
The power of a fight. By the way, I forgot, you can't use space power casually."
Zhang Ruochen shook his head and said: "I always have an ominous premonition. It will definitely not be peaceful tonight. Maybe a powerful enemy will appear. There is a force preventing us from returning to the royal city. Who is it?"
"Your mental power is far beyond ordinary people, are you feeling something?" Huang Yanchen said.
She knew that some people with strong mental power could predict some things that were about to be discovered. Zhang Ruochen's mental power was quite abnormal. Maybe he had already felt something?
