The momentum was shocking and the killing intent was overwhelming.
A flash of light tore through the darkness. It was extremely fast and dazzling. The moment it appeared, even Envoy Silver Light and Envoy Nine Eagles had to squint their eyes and use their True Power to protect their eyes. Not to mention the other weaker True Martial Realm martial artists, they were unable to look directly at it.
It was a blade light.
When Tie Xiong and Tie Lang were about to kill Chen Zong, Xia Tiechao also made his move. He unsheathed his blade and it was as fast as lightning.
The white blade light was extremely dazzling and it attracted Chen Zong's attention. It was as if his whole body was about to be sucked into it.
In a flash, the charging giant bear was cut in half. The wolf's claws were also cut in half and dissipated like smoke.
The white blade light was like an eagle in the sky. It drew a beautiful arc in the air and split into two, attacking Tie Xiong and Tie Lang respectively.
The Nine Eagles Envoy and the Silver Light Envoy were the envoys of the Nine Eagles Dynasty and the Silver Light Dynasty. Naturally, they would not stand on the side of the Three Ferocious City. Therefore, they did not stop Xia Tiechao.
Speaking of which, it was not that the Three Ferocious City did not want to bribe the envoys of the three dynasties. However, it was not very effective because the envoys and guards were replaced every three years. It was impossible to bribe them without spending a lot of money. However, that money could only last for three years. Once the envoys were replaced, they would have to bribe them again. It was not worth it.
Since there was no direct interest, the Nine Eagles Envoy and the Silver Light Envoy naturally would not help the Three Ferocious City.
The blood vessels in Tie Xiong and Tie Lang's eyes disappeared. They were filled with fear. They could not dodge or block Xia Tiechao's blade light. They could only watch helplessly as the blade light drew a mysterious and sharp trajectory. Death was about to befall them.
Just as the saber light was about to hit them, two huge fists appeared out of thin air like boulders and blasted out. They instantly flew past Tie Lang and Tie Xiong and blasted towards the two white saber lights.
The saber aura was shattered, and the two fists were also shattered at the same time. The terrifying force from the collision surged in all directions, setting off two violent storms that blew out. The ground was scraped up by three inches, and the sand and pebbles were like two tornadoes. When they collided with each other, they unstoppably fused into an even larger tornado that connected the sky and the earth.
Like the fury of nature, this tornado was extremely powerful. The sand and stones in the surroundings were all sucked into it and turned into powder.
Chen Zong felt an unparalleled suction force pulling his body towards the tornado. No matter how much power he unleashed, he could not stop it at all.
At the critical moment, a silhouette appeared beside Chen Zong. Then, Chen Zong flew up like the wind, breaking free from the power of the tornado. He flew far away and landed beside Xia Tiechao.
Everything had happened too quickly. In an instant, Chen Zong had faced the danger of death twice in a row.
"Brother, are you okay?" Xia Tiechao asked with concern.
"Thank you, Brother Xia. I'm fine." Chen Zong exhaled. His wildly beating heart slowly calmed down. The boiling Pure Yang Qi and blood in his body also calmed down.
It was too tense and too exciting. That kind of feeling made one's hair stand on end, but it also had an indescribable excitement.
"Emissary Xia, the two of them lost their minds because of the death of the sect's elites. Please forgive them this time for my sake." A domineering voice sounded clearly in everyone's ears. "Of course, the death penalty can be waived, but there must be a corresponding punishment. As long as it's reasonable, you can state it."
Xia Tiechao's gaze fell on the face of the person who spoke. It was a middle-aged man in silver-gray armor. He was tall and his hands were wide and thick. He looked like a God of War.
Chen Zong keenly caught a hint of fear in Xia Tiechao's eyes. Obviously, this person was very strong. He was so strong that Xia Tiechao wasn't sure he could defeat him.
"Brother, what do you think?" Xia Tiechao didn't answer. Instead, he asked Chen Zong.
"It's up to you, Brother Xia." Chen Zong also expressed his attitude.
Maybe Xia Tiechao wouldn't give up if he persisted. He would definitely kill Tie Lang and Tie Xiong. However, it would undoubtedly be unwise to confront this man in silver-gray armor.
Xia Tiechao had already done him a great favor by protecting him. He couldn't be unrighteous and put Xia Tiechao in danger.
Moreover, he was in danger because Tie Xiong and Tie Lang, two Genuine Martial Realm martial artists, had disregarded the rules and attacked him. He had to settle the score.
In a flash, Chen Zong put these two on his kill list.
Maybe he wasn't a match for them now, but he could in the future.
Was it difficult to reach Lv 7 of the Genuine Martial Realm?
It wouldn't be difficult.
Thinking back to when he was in the Qi and Blood Realm, he spent a lot of time and effort to strengthen his foundation. After breaking through to the Qi Refining Realm, his cultivation speed was much faster than other martial artists. That was in the Eastern Continent, where resources were scarce.
Now that he was in the Eastern Continent, he planned to go to the Longtu Dynasty, where there were more geniuses and more resources. As long as he reached the peak of the Qi Refining Realm and broke through, his cultivation in the True Martial Realm would be even faster.
Tie Lang and Tie Xiong felt a lingering fear. They hurriedly thanked the armored man who had helped them, and then glanced at Chen Zong.
With such heavy losses, they wouldn't have a good time when they returned to the gang. Moreover, Xia Tiechao wouldn't let this go. No matter which side it was, it wouldn't be a good thing for them.
At this point, the battle had ended with the deaths of more than thirty Grizzly Bear Guards from the Grizzly Bear Gang and more than thirty Red Wolf Warriors from the Red Wolf Gang. However, this kind of end was only on the surface.
"He's definitely not a four-star fighter. He's at least a five-star fighter or even higher."
"Investigate. Get someone to investigate this person's background immediately."
With the return of the crowd, the news of this battle immediately spread throughout the Three Ferocious City. After that, the first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate forces in the Three Ferocious City also heard the news and started to investigate.
However, only the first-rate forces had the ability to investigate. This was because they were strong enough and had enough resources to enter the various dynasties and secretly carry out their activities.
If it was only a four-star fighter, it wouldn't be enough for them to use the people hidden in the dynasties. After all, there were four-star Qi Refining Realm martial artists in the various first-rate forces.
If it was a five-star fighter, the significance would be different.
Indeed, there were five-star fighters in the various first-rate forces, but they were extremely rare and very precious.
Another point was that five-star fighters definitely had a high status in the dynasties. They might even have a very high background. No matter what, they had to investigate clearly before deciding on their attitude towards the other party.
However, the Three Ferocious City was quite far from the Cloud Dragon Dynasty. It would take some time to investigate and send the information back.
Chen Zong followed Xia Tiechao and the group of Cloud Dragon Ambassadors back to the Cloud Dragon Mansion. On the way back, he was silent.
This battle could be said to be a battle between life and death twice. He had almost died here. This also made Chen Zong more aware of the gap between him and the True Martial Realm.
Even if he had the Red Thunder Sword to rely on, he still needed an opportunity to activate the Sword Qi within it.
It was not enough. He was far from being strong enough. He had to become even stronger.
"The Peak of the Qi Refining Realm!" Chen Zong's eyes flashed. "I must reach it."
Only by reaching the Peak of the Qi Refining Realm would one's combat strength become even stronger. Perhaps it would not be enough to compare with a True Martial Realm martial artist, but it would have a perfect foundation that most True Martial Realm martial artists did not have. It would allow one to advance by leaps and bounds after breaking through to the True Martial Realm.
The foundation was very important. Even if Chen Zong urgently wanted to become stronger, he would not exchange a broader future for a temporary increase in strength.
If he could not wait to break through to the True Martial Realm now, it would be equivalent to cutting off his future.
"Brother, that person just now is called Duan Yingchou." After returning to the Cloud Dragon Mansion and sitting down, Xia Tiechao opened his mouth and said, "His combat strength is at the peak of the four-star level, not below mine. I am not confident that I can defeat him."
"Big Brother Xia, I am already very grateful that you are willing to protect me. As for the rest, let's leave it for now. We will deal with them in the future." Chen Zong smiled slightly and said.
"Okay, I will wait for that day." Xia Tiechao smiled and said.
Although he was an emissary of the dynasty, he was not invincible. He was indeed very powerful against the second-rate factions, but against the first-rate factions, his deterrence was undoubtedly much weaker.
"Brother, although you can't kill him, you should compensate him. What do you need to compensate? Feel free to tell me," Xia Tiechao said.
"What does Big Brother Xia think?" Chen Zong asked back.
"We need to make these two factions bleed." Xia Tiechao laughed. "If you trust me, let me handle it."
"Okay." Chen Zong did not hesitate at all.
"Straightforward." Xia Tiechao smiled. "Rest here. This is the Cloud Dragon Mansion. No one dares to cause trouble here. I will be back soon."
As he spoke, Xia Tiechao walked out of the Cloud Dragon Mansion alone. His goal was naturally to make a trip to the Grizzly Gang and the Red Wolves to make these two factions bleed.
As for Chen Zong, after chatting with the Cloud Dragon Guards for a while, he went to rest in the guest room.
Sitting on the bed, Chen Zong thought back to the battle just now. The thirty-odd Red Wolves' cooperation was indeed outstanding. If he really was a four-star warrior, he might have been defeated.
Unfortunately, they had underestimated his battle strength, causing them to be completely wiped out.
The main point Chen Zong thought back was the might of the Iron Wolves and Iron Bears, the two True Martial Realm cultivators. That kind of attack was not something he could block or dodge. It was as if he was directly suppressed.
After that, Xia Tiechao's blade was even more stunning. It was as if it had split the world into two. It was extremely terrifying.
Duan Yingchou's two punches were also very powerful. When they collided with the blade light, they both shattered and formed a shocking tornado that wreaked havoc in all directions. It was as if it wanted to destroy everything. The corpses of the Red Wolves and Grizzly Bear Guards were sucked into it and were instantly torn to pieces. Flesh and blood flew everywhere.
