The appearance of four Level Six Heavenly Masters immediately made all the onlookers suck in a breath of cold air!
Although the four of them were only level six Heavenly Masters, everyone knew them because they often appeared in public. They were the four commanders of the Imperial Guard! No one would have thought that the four commanders of the Imperial Guards would all rush here at such a fast speed. The strength of these commanders was not something that the people of this religion could compare with!
With the arrival of these four commanders, the masked man would not be able to escape no matter how strong he was!
In the eyes of countless onlookers, the masked man stopped and stood in place without moving. The four commanders surrounded him. When they saw the destroyed courtyard, they immediately glared at the masked man. No matter what the reason was, he would not be forgiven for daring to act so presumptuously in the Imperial City!
One of the majestic commanders stared at Lu An with wide eyes and shouted, "Will you come with us obediently, or will the four of us cripple you before taking you away?"
The masked man turned to look at the four of them and said indifferently, "You want to capture me? Do you have the ability?"
The four commanders were furious when they heard this. Another one shouted, "Don't think that we won't dare to do anything just because we're in the Imperial City. We'll give you one last chance. Surrender and you might be able to keep your life!"
The masked man turned to look at the commander who spoke. He did not say anything and only looked at him with a pair of deep, dark eyes.
When he met the pair of dark eyes, the commander's body trembled. A sense of confusion swept through his body, making him feel extremely helpless.
"Damn it!" The commander gritted his teeth to clear his mind and shouted, "This person doesn't want to live anymore. Attack!"
The other three commanders also realized that the masked man would not surrender. Although they were unwilling to attack in the Imperial City, they had to capture this person no matter what!
Seeing that the four commanders were about to attack, the onlookers did not dare to continue watching. The commanders did not need to worry too much when they attacked. Even if they were killed, they would not be held responsible. Therefore, the onlookers immediately fled out of the street. Not long after, the entire street was emptied!
Bang!! Bang!!
After the street was emptied, four loud noises sounded at almost the same time. The four commanders instantly charged at the masked man at full speed!
Facing the siege of four people, the masked man's dark eyes showed no signs of panic. He quickly dashed towards one of them, not giving them a chance to surround him.
The commander that the masked man was charging towards had the lightning attribute. The masked man's entire body was also covered in lightning. The two lightning attribute Heavenly Masters would undoubtedly compete in close combat. A light flashed in the commander's hand, and a scimitar appeared in his hand. Imbued with the power of lightning, he slashed at the masked man's chest!
Whoosh!
The masked man leaned over and dodged it. The scimitar only cut off the thunder and lightning afterimages left behind. The masked man quickly threw a punch at the commander's dantian. Seeing this, the commander's eyes turned cold. Although a Level 6 Celestial Master's cultivation wouldn't be destroyed if their dantian was hit, it would cause their entire body's Qi to become chaotic, and their combat ability would be greatly reduced!
Bang!
The commander immediately used his hand to block the masked man's fist to the side. At the same time, he raised his right knee to strike the masked man's face!
The masked man pressed his hand against the Commander's knee, blocking the opponent's attack. At the same time, the masked man retracted his arm that was blocked by the Commander and used his elbow to strike the Commander's side ribs!
Bang!
The Commander let out a muffled groan as his body was instantly sent flying by the elbow. He immediately raised his hand to cover the pain as he flew backward!
Seeing this, the other three commanders' eyes turned cold. If the four of them attacked at the same time and one person escaped, it would be a huge loss of face. The three of them had already successfully caught up to the masked man. At the same time, they brandished their weapons and slashed at the masked man's body!
The masked man definitely had no way to dodge a three-pronged attack. He didn't have three heads and six arms, so he would definitely be hit!
However, they guessed half of it right and the other half wrong.
The masked man was indeed hit, but it wasn't that he couldn't dodge. The masked man used a powerful movement technique to dodge two attacks. Furthermore, he attacked one of the commanders from a gap and actually sent him flying with a punch!
However, the masked man's back also took a solid hit, sending him flying. The masked man's movements had clearly become sluggish due to the heavy blow. He didn't continue fighting and immediately flew into the sky, fleeing out of the Imperial City!
With two commanders knocked down, the other two commanders didn't have the courage to continue chasing. Although letting this person escape would make them lose face, no matter what, their lives were more important!
However, they still didn't know where the masked man came from, and what was he doing here?

Lu An flew in the sky, flying all the way from the Imperial City to the outskirts of the city before stopping. He flew to an uninhabited mountain forest and sat cross-legged on the ground, taking a pill to heal himself.
However, would Lu An be unable to defeat four Level Six Heavenly Masters?
Of course not. Not to mention that Lu An was now a Level Seven Heavenly Master, during the battle at Purple Lake City, he had just become a Level Six Heavenly Master and fought with more than ten Level Six Heavenly Masters. How could four mere Level Six Heavenly Masters hurt him?
Lu An was completely acting. He pretended to be hit, pretended to escape with injuries, and pretended to come here to heal his injuries. All of this was an act for others to see.
Of course, he needed an audience to watch his performance. Without a doubt, the audience he wanted to see was also present and had even followed him.
The masked man, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, suddenly stood up and looked behind him. He said coldly, "Who is it? Still not coming out?! "
His voice kept echoing in the mountain forest, and within the echoes, a figure walked out from behind a tree in the distance.
This person was dressed in a brocade robe, wearing very expensive rings on all ten of his fingers. His eyes were filled with the aura of a superior, and as soon as he appeared, no one could underestimate him.
"Who are you?" The masked man looked at this person and said in a low voice, "Are you the one who chased me out of the Imperial City?"
"I chased you out, but I'm not here to catch you." This person revealed a meaningful smile and said, "I'm the Prime Minister of the Four River Country, Kang Zhi."
Lu An's heart moved when he heard this. He had indeed taken the bait.
Long before the arrival of the Fourth Commander, he had already noticed this person among the crowd. From this person's clothes and posture, the only person who could maintain such a high and mighty aura in the Imperial City, other than the King, was the Prime Minister.
The masked man didn't have much of a reaction when he heard this. He asked, "Since you're not here to catch me, why did you follow me here?"
"Nothing much. I just saw that you're powerful and wanted to pull you into my religion," Prime Minister Kang Zhi said with a smile.
"Religion?" The masked man immediately snorted and said, "What kind of crooked religion is this? I've always taken it as my duty to exterminate heretics. Even if it's your religion, I won't let it go!"
The Prime Minister laughed heartily when he heard this. He shook his head and said, "My religion isn't crooked. It's a religion that truly leads people to do good and changes the suffering of life. Furthermore, my religion often sends believers to exterminate heretics. It's just in line with your ambition. It's too lonely to fight against all the heretics by yourself. Why don't you join my Spirit God Religion and work together to bring happiness to the world? "
The masked man's expression clearly changed when he heard this. However, he quickly said, "I don't believe in gods, so I can't join any religion!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't believe in gods. Our Spirit God Religion doesn't have gods to begin with." The Prime Minister opened his arms and said, "We only believe in the righteousness of saving the world. There are many chivalrous people in my religion. If you don't believe me, I can bring you to take a look. If you feel that it's inappropriate, you can leave at any time. With your strength, we can't stop you even if we wanted to. "
The masked man's eyes turned cold as he said in a deep voice, "That's true. Other than a Level Seven Heavenly Master, no one can stop me."
"Since that's the case, what are you afraid of?" The Prime Minister smiled and walked forward until he was only three meters away. He said, "Your Excellency wants to exterminate the heretics. Our Spirit God Religion also has the same goal. Only when knowledgeable people gather together can we achieve great things. Otherwise, with the countless heretics around the Myriad Desert, you won't be able to exterminate all of them even if you die of exhaustion, right?"
The masked man's eyes clearly showed some hesitation. The Prime Minister looked at the masked man confidently. This wasn't the first time he had dealt with such self-proclaimed chivalrous people. It was the easiest to deal with such one-track minded people.
Indeed, after pondering for a moment, the masked man raised his head and said to the Prime Minister in a deep voice, "Alright, I'll go with you to take a look. If I find out that they aren't as chivalrous or even heretics as you say, the next person I'll exterminate will be you! "
"Your Excellency, don't worry." The Prime Minister laughed and said, "If they aren't chivalrous, I'm willing to give you my head!"
