Repugnant Gateway-Chapter 371 - Stormy Glazed Glass City
Chapter 371 β Stormy Glazed Glass City
An Zheng saw the second cultivator carrying a sword walking towards him, and turned around to take a look at Glazed City.
Right now, the only person who could stop the cultivators of State of Zhao was him. πππβ―πΈππ£ππ°Ξ½eΖ.cππ¦
βI am called Chen Jiansheng. The person you killed just now is my junior brother.β
Chen Jiansheng appeared to be around forty years old, and his appearance was rather scholarly. However, the coldness in his eyes caused one to shudder. Ordinary people would always regard killing intent as something illusory and not necessarily real. However, when a person truly killed someone without any regard for their killing intent, one could truly feel their killing intent. An Zheng could see the killing intent in Chen Jianshengβs eyes. The number of cultivators who had died at Chen Jianshengβs hands all these years was definitely not small.
Chen Jiansheng walked to the opposite of An Zheng and curiously sized him up, βI have never believed that the talent of the cultivators in this world would be too lacking, and had even destroyed the Nine Star Platform within my Green Pine Sect. Humans had the same four limbs and the same five senses. Talent truly made people feel disgusted. So all these years, I have been looking for a so-called genius, fighting him and killing him. β
He shrugged his shoulders and continued, βBut now, I actually believe in the gap between our talents. Your being able to kill Wang Jianli is sufficient to prove this point.β
He stretched out his hand. βPlease hand over my Green Pine Sectβs Crimson Blade. I can let you die a little faster.β
An Zheng then asked: βWhat is the grade of your sword?β
Chen Jiansheng did not expect An Zheng to actually answer in such a way and could not help but laugh, βItβs rare to see a genius as arrogant as you who would be so arrogant. My sword is called Dan Bead, and according to its grade, it is still inferior to Wang Jianliβs Crimson Art. Who asked his master to be biased, thinking that his future achievements would be higher than mine. βIf it were not for the fact that we are from the same sect, I would have killed Wang Jianli long ago and snatched the Crimson Blade, which symbolizes the status of our Green Pine Sect.β
An Zheng: βI donβt want to know about such a dog-blooded relationship.β
Chen Jiansheng said, βI have to thank you for killing him, or else I really wouldnβt have been able to do it.β
An Zheng stretched his limbs: βCome and fight.β
Chen Jiansheng said, βAlright.β
He did not pull out the sword, but walked towards An Zheng instead, βWang Jiuli was jushird ranked Lower Completion Stage cultivator. He was killed by you because you had a Purple-Rank Divine Artifact. Not only do I need to practice the sword red, I also want your Purple-Rank. I donβt have any loyalty to the so-called country. We can talk about a deal. Why donβt you give me your Purple-Rank Divine Artifact and Scarlet Sword, then I wonβt kill you, then turn around and leave? β
An Zheng: βIn other words, I gave you the Purple-Rank Divine Artifact. You killed the old man in the chariot?β
Chen Jiansheng turned around and looked at the war chariot. He actually thought about it very seriously for a while, and then replied very seriously, βNo, even if I had your Purple-Rank Divine Artifact, I still wouldnβt be able to beat him. Even if I can beat him, heβs the State of Zhaoβs Prime Minister, how can I survive in the State of Zhao in the future? β
At this moment, a huge battleship suddenly appeared in the sky. On top of the warship, a robed man directly flew down from the sky and gently landed in front of An Zheng.
βMy fellow cultivator from the State of Zhao does not seem to be very polite.β
This person was dressed in a pure black Daoist robe and had a slender figure. After he landed, he turned around and looked at An Zheng, and smiled faintly: βDuke of the Nation, leave it to us.β
Zhou Jiuji?
An Zheng was slightly taken aback.
He never thought that the people from the Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao would rush over at this time.
βIt seems that the Duke of the Nation has some prejudice against my Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao, but now is not the time for me to explain. I may be a little extreme in my actions, and I have a little conflict with the Duke of the Nation before, but that is all a matter of the family. If State of Yan is a big family, all of the grudges between us would be caused by the anger of our family. However, right now, our Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao will naturally not allow outsiders to bully our family. β
He turned around and looked at Chen Jiansheng. βCome, let me experience the Daoist magics of the Green Pine Sect.β
Chen Jianshengβs steps, which had been moving forward, suddenly stopped, and his expression instantly became unsightly. βYouβre already so old, arenβt you just bullying the younger generation by fighting with me?β
Zhou Jiuji said, βYouβre so old, and yet you want to fight against our Prince Fu? Are they not the same?β
On the side of the chariot, Sima Zhen said after a moment of silence, βSince even the Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-taoβs people have arrived, then I presume that the Swallow King has also arrived?β
The battleship slowly descended from the sky. It was the battleship of the State of Yan Royal Family. As the warship opened up, a group of heavily armored Tie Liuhuo walked out of the battle armor slowly and orderly. The hundreds of riders from State of Zhao seemed to be extremely imposing, but when Tie Liuhuoβs heavy riders came out from the battleship, the opposing ridersβ imposing manner immediately weakened.
No one bothered to explain their temperament. The opposing riders were all experts, and their mounts were all Demonic Beasts. However, the moment Tie Liuhuoβs heavy cavalry appeared, it instantly suppressed his aura. Even Tie Liuhuoβs war horse actually didnβt have the slightest trace of fear towards the enemy in front of it. In their eyes, these Demonic Beasts were inferior creatures to them.
After Tie Liuhuo, Swallow King, who was under the protection of the imperial bodyguards, walked out of the warship in large strides. When he saw An Zheng, he slightly nodded his head, concealing the joy in his eyes and pretended to be very solemn as he walked over to An Zhengβs side.
βEnter the city.β
Mu Qidao said two words, then turned around and walked towards the city gate.
In the chariot some distance behind him, Sima Zhenβs face paled slightly. βSwallow King, since we have already arrived, why didnβt you stay and talk about the problems Zhao and Yan are facing?β
His face was pale, obviously angry. After Mu Qidao got off the battleship, he didnβt even look at him.
When the city gates of Liu-Li City opened, Mu Qidao strode into the city with An Zheng and the rest following closely behind.
An Chengli stayed at the back, and waited for An Zheng and the others to enter the city before he coldly said: βIn front of the Sovereign King, you do not know how to be courteous, but you are still an old subject of two generations of State of Zhao. Great King, seeing the former alliance between Yan Zhao and the other nations, will not care about your mistakes of trespassing our great swallowβs territory this time around. βYou can leave now, and come back here when you have learnt the way of being a subject and when you know how to be courteous.β
The corners of Sima Zhen Ruβs mouth twitched a few times. βDo I have to see them?β
βDrive!β
Following the command given by General Fang Daozhi, the three hundred riders immediately advanced forward in an orderly fashion. The war horses were almost all the same size, and the soldiers on their horses were all about the same size. They held up the long lance hanging on the side of the warhorses. When all the heavy riders moved forward at the same time, it was as if an especially powerful array had been activated. The heavy armors of the heavy cavalry and warhorses shone with a faint light at the same time. The armors worn by them were actually all magical weapons!
What was even more terrifying was that once the 300 riders advanced, a magical formation was activated.
On the State of Zhaoβs side, a few hundred cavalrymen were preparing to fight, but the demonic beast they were riding on was actually pressured by Tie Liuhuoβs imposing aura, causing them to retreat backwards.
βHis aura has been lost.β
Sima Zhen let out a long sigh, pointing his finger out from inside the carriage. The chariot immediately turned, and several hundred cavalrymen rapidly retreated under their protection.
On the city walls of Liu-Li City, Mu Qidao asked An Zheng, βHave you left?β
An Zheng nodded.
Mu Qidao could not help but shake his head, βNow I know what is considered strong on the outside but weak on the inside β¦ The internal strife in the great swallow is too heavy, and countless cultivators have died. The chaos caused by the empress dowager and her subjects had caused almost all cultivators above the Captive Stage to die. If they really start fighting, thereβs no chance of victory. β
An Zheng: βSo you have no choice but to use Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-taoβs people?β
Mu Qidao nodded, βI have no choice but to use it β¦ Outside of the Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao, there arenβt many sects in the great swallow that have any experts left. This is something that cannot be helped. It canβt be that you canβt even pretend to be a fatty, right? β
An Zheng replied: βIf you arenβt in charge of the capital, then why are you suddenly here.β
Mu Qidao: βMr. Gu said that the State of Zhao will definitely send people over to negotiate, and they will definitely be very important. But if the State of Zhao wanted to negotiate, they had to establish their might first. For example, after destroying a city, or taking oveiece of our land, they would negotiate with the attitude of the strong. I was worried that their target would be the Glazed City, so I rushed over in the middle of the night. β
An Zheng said: βGu Chaotong has really calculated it well.β
Mu Qidao: βDidnβt they want to talk? Then come talk to us properly. The people of Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao also knew that there was no home to be destroyed. Not just the Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao, even the sects of State of Yan should understand this logic. β
βWhat should we do next?β
An Zheng asked.
Mu Qidao raised his chin slightly: βItβs noroblem if you want to talk to me, but you need someone of equal status. If no one came to the King Zhao, they would not allow anyone to do so. I already told Fang Zhiji to split up and come here, we can reach in at most a month. βThe Son of Heaven is guarding the gate to the kingdom. I will be guarding this city. Even if they were to fight, we will have to stay there for a month.β
While they were talking, there was a small town less than five kilometers away from Glazed City. Now that the town was empty, the people went to the fields to help clear the wasteland.
Nineteen Demons brought his group of subordinates into the town, waving to them to see if there were anymore people. His men dispersed, leaving only two behind.
A man and a woman.
The man was Duan Ren.
The female was Ding Ningdong.
Nineteen Demons sat down on a millstone in a courtyard and sneered: βRight now the world is in chaos, it is the great opportunity for us Devil Sect to rise again. I have bestowed you with an immortal body, as well as powerful magic tools and techniques. Moreover, you have opened the doors to the Demon Palace, allowing you to temper your physical bodies. Right now is the chance to test your strength. The future of the world will be yours. β
βMasterβs godly might, peerless in the world!β
The group of people said as they possessed him.
Duan Ren lowered his head and said: βMaster, as long as we take down the Swallow King, the State of Yan will be under our control. At that time, the army under the puppet will be the army of the Devil Sect. If you control an army, youβll be able to wipe out other sects. β
Nineteen Demons made a sound of agreement: βWhat I need to do now is to control Swallow King first. Originally, he wanted to make a move on Fanggu, but who would have thought that he would suddenly leave and travel to this place, it would be easier than making a move in the capital. The most difficult ones to deal with were the few Ox-nose Daoists from Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao. Iβll deal with them, you guys charge into the guards at the side of Swallow King β¦ Ding Ningdong. β
Ding Ningdong, whose face was deathly pale, possessed: βDisciple is here.β
The Nineteen Demons said: βThe most important part of this matter is you. Whether or not we can control the Swallow King successfully is all up to you. You are different from them. You should know how much hope I have placed on you. β
Everyone had changed to the so-called βimmortal heartβ, but Ding Ningdong didnβt. This was because the poison and medicine she cultivated in had long ago caused her body to be very different from a normal body. Furthermore, the Nineteen Demons also wished to haverson skilled in poison, so she did not plan to destroy her. With his unique cultivation technique, he controlled Ding Ningdong.
βDisciple understands.β
Ding Ningdong said as she possessed her body, βThis disciple will definitely give it his all.β
Nineteen Demons nodded his head in satisfaction. βThen thatβs good β¦ Duan Ren, bring a few people with you to take a look at the environment first. If there are no major problems, letβs start tonight. β
He looked into the distance: βChen Xiaoyao... If you donβt want to revive the Devil Sect, I will. When the Devil Sect is flourishing, I want you to kneel down and see me! β
