Following which Tan Tao was deep in thought as he looked at the cloud crossing carriage that was rampaging on the streets without any care, "Actually a year ago I met Hu Qianqiu. I determined that this person had lost his sharpness and within 10 years he wouldn't be able to break through to 6 meridians of the earth chakra level. He needed time to comprehend the ways of the world and not be blinded by the desire for power. Only then could he improve. That Zong Yuan was the same. Although his talent was high and he created his own martial arts, his spear technique had weaknesses. It was tough to improve further. However, looking at it now, not only did he break through to the martial ancestor realm, his spear strength was also more perfect. I really don't know what the 2 of them faced … "
Seeing that Li Sina's face was filled with impatience. Tan Tao smiled and quickly covered his mouth, "These 2 people, one is the son of the iron tiger race leader, the other is the most outstanding talent of the Zong family branch. Looking at the situation, they are willing to work for that Zong Shou, not hesitating to stir up trouble in our Xuan Mountain City. What a surprise! "
Li Sina wasn't a dumb person and at this moment she was slightly shocked. Her expression started to turn serious, "You are saying that Hu Qianqiu and even Zong Yang are leaning towards this Zong Shou? How is that possible? That's right, if the 2 of them were just escorting Zong Shou back to Gantian Mountain, they wouldn't have risked their lives today! "
Tan Tao's tone was expressionless, "I don't know about that Zong Yang. Who knows, maybe today Zong Yuan acted on his own. But that Hu Qianqiu placed his son beside this prince, his attitude is clear. "
Li Sina's expression changed once more. Although she was a woman, she roughly knew about the situation of Gantian Mountain. One Qiu Wei already controlled 30% of the military strength of Gantian Mountain. If one added in the iron tiger race, it would be enough to settle the situation, causing half of the powers in Gantian Mountain City to lean towards Zong Shou. If one added in Zong Yang, the others wouldn't have a chance at all.
Her gaze was uncertain, filled with both annoyance and confusion. Just at that moment, a male at the side scoffed coldly, "Who cares about Hu Qianqiu and Zong Yang. These 2 people are so unrestrained, they are bullying my Xuan Mountain City! Those who insulted the City Lord deserved to be killed! You, Tan Tao, can tolerate it, but I, Luo Xian, can't. Being able to use the blood of these two as a sacrifice for my Ancient Sun Axe is not bad! If you make me angry, I'll kill that Zong Shou too! "
This person was only thirty-four or thirty-five years old. He carried a bronze axe on his back and his face was flushed red. The messy beard under his chin was like steel needles. When he didn't speak earlier, no one could ignore him. When he spoke at this moment, he immediately displayed a domineering aura that caused others to raise their eyebrows. With a leap, he jumped down from the five hundred foot tall nine story pagoda. When he stepped on the ground, a loud rumble could be heard. In just a few steps, he was several miles away. He flew swiftly towards the direction of the chaos.
Only then did Li Sina smile and show a joyful expression. However, in the next instance, her face turned cold and mocking, "This Luo Xian is bloodthirsty and arrogant. He will do what he says. Since he said that, he definitely won't show mercy and let go of the lives of Hu Zhongyuan and Zong Shou. Why didn't General Tan persuade him just now? "
"There's no need! The lives of these 2 aren't in Luo Xian's hands but in the City Lord's! "
Tan Tao shook his head, not bothering at all. Following which his tone changed, "The City Lord's wife might have misunderstood something. Even if this Zong Shou is smart and obtained the help of Hu Qianqiu, he still isn't a good match for Miss Yiren. That piece of trash isn't good enough. Be it for her life or for the future of our Xuan Mountain City, it's best to end this marriage. "
Only then did Li Sina turn from annoyance to joy. However, the worry in her eyes didn't fade away.
Tan Tao didn't even need to look and knew what she was thinking. He smiled and explained, "You don't have to worry. Do you think the City Lord is a person who cares about his reputation?"
"How is that possible?"
Li Sina's brows furrowed. She was really clear about her husband's personality. "If he really cared about his reputation, he wouldn't have married a Demon Sect disciple like me and caused so much trouble for Xuan Mountain City …"
"That's right! The City Lord doesn't care about his reputation. He only cares about Miss Yiren. As long as you act from there, no matter how those few people scold you won't be able to shake his heart. The stronger the prince is and the deeper he is dragged into Gantian Mountain, the more uneasy the City Lord will be. "
Tan Tao nodded his head. His tone was as if he had a card up his sleeve. It was as if he was giving pointers. "However, just in case, we still need to spread the news of this Crown Prince as soon as possible. Yunxia Mountain and Blazing Flame Mountain didn't know where he was. Now that this kid shows himself, those 2 monster kings won't allow him to live! It's best if this prince dies early. "
Li Sina was originally surprised, but when she heard that, her face turned ashen white, showing a disapproving expression. Tan Tao didn't care, smiling and bowing to Xuanyuan Yiren, "Miss Yiren, don't blame me. Everything I plan is for your future and the well-being of the millions of people in Xuan Mountain City. If I offend you, please don't blame me! "
Xuanyuan Yiren curled her lips in disdain. She originally thought that this person would be different from others, but in the end, he was still the same.
People's hearts were like that. Ten years ago when her father wanted to marry her mother, he caused hundreds of thousands of troops to surround Xuan Mountain. Relying on the help of Gantian Mountain, they were able to get out. A few years ago, it was Zong Weiran who helped the hundreds of thousands of people in Xuan Mountain City escape. Speaking of which, he saved the lives of half of the people in the city.
However, when that Gantian Mountain monster king died for just a few months, not only did her mother forget about him saving her, but even people like Tan Tao wanted to kill Zong Shou.
Out of the millions of people in the city, no one seemed to remember Zong Weiran's kindness.
Thinking about that, Xuanyuan Yiren was at a loss. Was the path of righteousness and benevolence that she insisted on so unsuitable?
The rage in her heart towards Zong Shou also dissipated by a little. Pretty much everyone in Xuan Mountain City didn't like Zong Shou. There were even people who hated him to the bone and wanted to take his life. Zong Shou scolded a few words, but it didn't seem like much. If it was her, she would be furious too.
For some reason, she felt pity for Zong Shou and wanted to cry out for him.
Using a dual meridian body to cultivate, going through so many trials and betrayals since young. To think that he was able to smile so brightly.
However, the pity of others was unnecessary for Zong Shou. Even if that person was smashed into the depths of hell, he would use his own hands to climb out. Usually he looked really casual like he didn't care about anything, but he had an unbreakable backbone.
Thinking about that, Xuanyuan Yiren didn't bother about the path of righteousness and benevolence. She only looked at the carriage in the distance and was stunned.
※ ※ ※
On the long street, it was filled with the sounds of killing. Hu Zhongyuan and Zong Yuan, one in front and one behind, galloped on the hundreds of feet wide streets. The carriage that Zong Shou sat on followed closely behind.
Although the speed of the group was swift, they didn't stop at all. However, on the streets, dense amounts of armored soldiers had started to appear. However, they weren't able to form up. Under Hu Zhongyuan's tiger king knife, they weren't able to hold on for even a moment. Their forward momentum was like a piece of rotten bamboo. Under Zong Yuan's purple lightning spear, there were even fewer people who were able to escape unscathed.
Apart from that spear-wielding brute and those few martial ancestors. Pretty much no one was able to stop the 2 of them for a moment, allowing the 2 Windrider foals to charge on the streets.
At this moment, they were only a few miles away from the city lord manor. With his xiantian realm, Zong Shou could clearly see the situation above the 500-foot tall building. As expected, that girl was Xuanyuan Yiren. However, her eyes didn't move at all as she looked over at him in a daze.
"Weird! Could it be that this girl missed me too much in the past few months? Why is she so infatuated with me now? "
Zong Shou found it weird, following which he felt a little delighted. Thinking that after he reincarnated, did he become a love saint? He made Xuanyuan Yiren fall for him so quickly. In his last life, he didn't have such ability.
He touched his face, considering whether or not it was because of his looks. Following which he felt Ruoshui's back straighten. The hand that was holding the sword suddenly clenched tightly.
"Prince, they have moved their crossbows!"
Zong Shou's brows furrowed as he looked out of the window. As expected, he saw a bunch of martial masters jump up from the houses on both sides, holding bows and crossbows as they pointed over.
These martial masters only had four to five thousand kilograms of strength. If it was just one, no matter how accurate their archery skills were, it wouldn't be much of a threat to a martial ancestor whose skin was as tough as iron and stone. However, if there were thousands of arrows shooting over, one couldn't help but worry.
If there were tens of xiantian masters amongst them, they might have the ability to kill a martial ancestor.
Zong Shou scoffed coldly. If these people really used crossbows, he would be happy to see it as he naturally had a way to deal with it.
In the next moment, his eyes constricted as he felt a strong and violent aura cross the air and arrive in the sky above.
… Earth chakra 7 meridians, Xuanwu ancestor!
Hu Zhongyuan had sensed it long ago, exploding out with all the strength in his body right away. The tiger king knife energy charged ninety-nine feet and struck up into the sky!
At the same time, a huge bronze axe suddenly appeared a thousand feet above the ground and chopped down.
When the knife and axe clashed, the entire stone street was instantly smashed into pieces! Pretty much all the houses within eight thousand feet were smashed into pieces by the wind. It was a total mess.
Hu Zhongyuan only felt a sweetness in his mouth, his four limbs felt like they were about to be crushed. Without any suspense, his body was sent flying by this tyrannical power. He slid two thousand feet on the ground before finally stopping.
Just as his energy was in a mess and he was unable to use any strength. That giant axe shadow only paused for a moment before it chased after him. The huge axe energy seemed like it was about to smash him into pieces!
Hu Zhongyuan's eyes opened wide in rage, wanting to get up and fight once more. However, numerous wounds appeared all over his body. The energy that he had just gathered up also dissipated. His heart instantly sank to the bottom of the valley. He couldn't help but laugh bitterly. He most probably didn't have a chance today.
Just now, he was really crazy. Why did he listen to the prince's advice and not show mercy at all and charge in without any care for his life? The iron tiger race had such a problem. Once their blood boiled, they would forget everything. Their brains were muddled. They were dead this time. (To be continued.)
