The skinny monkey attacked as soon as he said he would. He didn't give the other party any room to maneuver at all. He swung the broken staff in his hand, and a powerful force of fire blasted towards the person in the lead.
The man riding on the demonic leopard was called Gao Fengyan, and he was the third son of the current City Lord. He was also a beginner king tier, but he was only 35 years old. He could be said to be young and promising. He had always been arrogant in the city, so he wasn't afraid when he saw others attacking him. He raised the battle halberd in his hand and shouted, "How dare you rebel! I'll kill you to show my power!"
The battle halberd was powerful, and it was suffused with a thick yellow color. It collided with the skinny monkey's fire staff.
Bang!
The two different forces collided, and there were bursts of Xuan Qi sparks that flew in all directions.
The two had just exchanged blows, and it was obvious who was stronger and who was weaker. Gao Fengyan's strength couldn't compare to the skinny monkey's, and the skinny monkey's fire staff still had power to smash towards Gao Fengyan.
Gao Fengyan was shocked. He swung his battle halberd to meet the attack, but when he came into contact with this force, he was immediately thrown off his feet. He couldn't withstand the skinny monkey's strength at all.
The 2,000 soldiers behind Gao Fengyan all attacked, and a lot of power blasted towards the skinny monkey.
Only a few dozen of these 2,000 soldiers were at the General Realm. The rest were mostly at the Warrior Realm. How could they pose a threat to the skinny monkey?
"Kill!" The members of the Death Legion all shouted in unison, and then they charged madly again.
They combined all their strength into a spear, and with the combination of their powerful aura and strength, the spear smashed into the two thousand enemy soldiers.
The 2,000 soldiers were completely crushed like paper. They couldn't withstand a single blow, and all of them screamed in pain.
Fortunately, Lu Zhi put down the battle flag in time, and didn't let them launch a second wave of attacks. Otherwise, all 2,000 soldiers would have died.
At this time, the City Lord, Gao Ruihua, finally appeared.
He brought his two sons and a group of experts with him, and he rode over on his demonic beast. He shouted, "Which general wants to attack my High Cliff City? Let me see."
Gao Ruihua didn't look old. His strong face vaguely showed that he was young and handsome. It was no wonder that he could give birth to a beautiful daughter like the nation's mother.
The two middle-aged men beside him were his eldest son, Gao Juncheng, and his second son, Gao Liangxiang. They were both Kings.
Others said that the Empress had helped the Gao Family obtain a large amount of resources and helped the Gao Family to become Kings. That was how they became the City Lords. However, that was not the case.
Before the empress married into the imperial family, the Gao family was the overlord of this area. They had found a large mine and made contributions to the imperial court. At the same time, they had also gained a lot, which allowed their family to become kings.
Over the years, the Gao family had been very high-profile, dominating High Cliff City and acting like a tyrant. Even if a high ranking official from the imperial court passed by, the Gao family would show them their power and force them to abide by the Gao family's rules. The Emperor also turned a blind eye to this and didn't pay too much attention to it as long as they didn't do anything out of line.
Now, Yang Wu was eager to return home. The Gao Family was undoubtedly provoking his anger by blocking his path.
"City Lord Gao, I want to return to the imperial city. You want to stop me?" Yang Wu sat cross-legged on the Silver Patterned Tortoise and asked Gao Ruihua.
"Who are you? How dare you speak to my father like that?" Gao Juncheng pointed his weapon at Yang Wu and reprimanded him.
"Who do you think you are? My big brother is the Guardian General, Count Yang Wu of Shaowu. If you dare point your sword at him again, I'll break your arm," Shou Hou shouted as he carried his broken staff.
"You are Yang Wu?" Gao Ruihua frowned and asked Yang Wu.
"Yes, I am Yang Wu," Yang Wu replied.
"Haha, it's really a case of a family not recognizing each other." Gao Ruihua laughed loudly. Then he squinted his eyes and said to Yang Wu, "Grandson-in-law, hurry up and greet your grandfather."
Yang Wu frowned and said, "City Lord Gao, are you trying to take advantage of me? Do you want to start a war? "
The soldiers of the Death Legion were once again on alert, ready to launch an attack at any time.
"No, no … I am Princess Xiao Han's grandfather. You are already preparing to marry her, so it's natural for you to call me grandfather. Don't you all think so? "Gao Ruihua said.
"So you are my nephew's son-in-law. You really are a talent." Gao Juncheng smiled.
Gao Liangxiang also smiled and said, "Not bad, not bad. Nephew's son-in-law, your soldiers are very powerful. Hurry up and get down from your horse. Let's have a good gathering."
The people of the Gao Family also praised, treating Yang Wu as one of their own.
Yang Wu waited for them to finish speaking and said, "Everyone, I have urgent matters to attend to in King City. I am not in the mood to talk about these things for the time being. Please make way."
Gao Ruihua could tell from Yang Wu's words that Yang Wu was dissatisfied with the marriage, so he asked in a displeased tone, "What, do you have some objections to this marriage?"
Yang Wu replied, "Wait until we get back to King City. I will make a decision. Please make way."
"Don't think you can pass if you don't make things clear." Gao Ruihua replied strongly.
"Nephew's son-in-law, don't be impulsive. Are you going to go against the decree just because of that woman beside you?" Gao Juncheng looked at Meng Bingxue behind Yang Wu and said.
Gao Liangxiang also said, "That's right. As the emperor's son-in-law, you can't have three wives and four concubines. You can only love the princess. You have to clean up the women around you." After pausing for a moment, he smiled and said, "If you don't have the heart to clean them up, then let me do it for you."
"Soldiers, listen to my order. Full speed ahead. Whoever gets in the way will die!" Yang Wu's expression turned cold as he shouted.
"Yes!" The one thousand five hundred soldiers shouted in unison.
Then, Yang Wu took the lead and led Meng Bingxue, Wan Lanxin, Shou Hou, Lu Zhi, and the others forward. They completely ignored Gao Ruihua and the others who were blocking their way.
"Impudent! Stop right there!" Gao Ruihua released the aura of a high level King.
Behind him, his three sons also released the aura of a King. They wanted to stop Yang Wu and the others.
Yang Wu was already at the end of his patience. He lightly patted the Silver Patterned Turtle and said, "Let me see how strong you have become."
After the Silver Patterned Turtle received the Demonic King Pill and the Ice Flood Dragon's flesh from Yang Wu, its Demonic Qi had undergone an earth-shattering change. It was now a high level Demonic King. The speed of its growth was truly shocking.
"Young Master, just watch." The Silver Patterned Turtle revealed a ferocious expression as it replied.
In the next moment, its body became even bigger, and its demonic aura was quite terrifying. Wisps of icy aura flowed around its body, and the intertwining silver patterns formed a powerful offensive light shield that rushed towards Gao Ruihua.
The Silver Patterned Turtle's battle strength was already very strong. It had once fought four King level Kings. Now that it had broken through to a high level Demonic King and possessed the Flood Dragon's aura, it was even more powerful than before.
Gao Ruihua was shocked. He didn't expect Yang Wu's mount to be a high level Demonic King. Without thinking, he sent out two palms in an attempt to break the Silver Patterned Turtle's light shield.
Bang bang!
The power in his palms was quite strong. It could easily destroy a mountain. However, when his palms came into contact with the Silver Patterned Turtle's light shield, not only did they not break, but they were also repelled by the power of the ice, causing frostbite to his palms.
"Not good! Retreat!" Gao Ruihua cried out involuntarily. He was the first to fly up.
Behind him, his three sons didn't dare to delay after hearing his words. They also quickly soared into the sky, avoiding the Silver Patterned Turtle's power.
They were King level Kings, so they could escape. However, the people behind them were knocked off their feet and screamed in pain. They were also frozen by the cold Qi.
"Yang Wu, how dare you!" Gao Ruihua shouted at Yang Wu.
Yang Wu said calmly, "Don't embarrass yourself."
"I don't believe that a mere Demonic King dares to slap my Gao family's face." Gao Ruihua cursed loudly. He drew out his battle weapon and slashed it down angrily.
This was a King's Saber. The power of the saber slash was quite shocking. It was 30% stronger than the previous attack.
"Old thing, if Grandpa Turtle doesn't show his power, do you think I'm a sick cat?" The Silver Patterned Turtle was fierce to begin with. It had been suppressed by Yang Wu for a while. Now that it had a chance to vent, how could it let go of it? After cursing loudly, it punched out with its palm.
Overlord Fist!
This punch already contained some fist intent. Its power was even more domineering and powerful. It was as if the power of ice and water had condensed into a river. It immediately shattered Gao Ruihua's Saber Ray. It was completely unstoppable.
Gao Ruihua completely didn't expect his attack to be so weak. He quickly dodged this punch, but he was still half a step too late. The power of the fist brushed past his shoulder, and it exploded on the spot.
"Father!" Gao Ruihua's three sons exclaimed. They all rushed over to help.
"All of you, eat the Overlord Fist!" The Silver Patterned Turtle shouted excitedly. It continuously punched out. How could Gao Ruihua's three sons withstand its power? They were all beaten until their Profound Wings collapsed, and their bodies fell down.
Just as the Silver Patterned Turtle was about to pursue, Gao Ruihua hurriedly shouted, "Stop fighting, stop fighting. We'll let them go, we'll let them go."
He was afraid that if he shouted any slower, the Silver Patterned Turtle would kill both him and his son.
"If you knew this would happen, you wouldn't have tried to stop me!" Yang Wu said indifferently. Then, he stopped the Silver-patterned Turtle and led a group of people away from High Cliff City in a domineering manner.
Gao Ruihua waited for Yang Wu's group to leave before he cried out in pain, "This old man is angry to death. I'll go to the capital tomorrow. I must stop this marriage and have the Emperor completely erase this child."
"That's right. This child has thoughts of rebellion. He must be killed." Gao Jun Jie said fiercely as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"I'll tell Younger Sister, Xiao Han can't marry this kind of renegade." Gao Liang said.
Gao Feng Yan also cursed, "This brat only made some military achievements and he's already so arrogant. If he becomes the Emperor's son-in-law, he must be killed!"
