Chapter 131: Rescue Mission (2/5)

  Zhou Hengzhen wanted to burst out and move, using one sword to blast this woman to death. The other party's initial separation boundary cultivation was not even put in his eyes!

  With Nan Gonghong on one side, he couldn't succeed, and this move was equivalent to betraying the Han Cang country, which he didn't want to get into trouble with for now. Of course, if there was an opportunity, he wouldn't mind quietly erasing the life of this vicious woman.

  "It's reasonable to entrust this task to you!" Nan Gong Hong waved his hand, indicating that Lan Fei should not interrupt. "The Liu Yue you are going to rescue is a very important person in our clan!"

  "Why are you the only ones allowed to act? It's because every country has an unwritten rule that any warrior above the realm of splitting the earth who enters another country must report and register, otherwise it will be considered an invasion and spark a war!"

  This also makes some sense, otherwise other countries would only need to come and kill a few strong people in the sky-opening realm, and the Han Cang country would be finished. As for why such regulations have binding force, it is likely that the Langyue country has established them, and no dynasty dares not to follow.

  "The other party is unaware of Liu Yue's identity, and Qianling City only has warriors at the initial stage of division. You are enough to easily complete the task!"

  Nangong Hong waved his hand and said, "You quickly set off, you must rescue Liu Yue back, I will heavily reward you! If you fail... you can bring your own heads to see me!"

  This is an order to go all out, we can only succeed and are not allowed to fail.

  What is Liu Yue's identity after all?

  Whether they were willing or not, the five people had to pinch their noses and agree. Openly defying the imperial edict would be treason! With the sacred artifact of the Sheji in hand, one could grasp righteousness and command the world!

  Unless Zhou Heng can break into the Open Heaven Realm, he will definitely be subject to the control of the imperial family.

  Zhou Heng glanced at Lan Fei without leaving any trace, the woman's mouth was curled up with a cold smile, just like during the previous Da Yan Sheng Hui.

  It's clear that this woman will absolutely not be calm!

  Zhou Heng's right hand tightened. A surge of murderous intent rose up, he needed a powerful force to break free from this suffocating feeling of being controlled! Fine, bring it on, whatever moves you've got, he didn't mind killing a few more people to increase his own cultivation accumulation.

  After leaving the palace, Lin Zhi and the three of them asked Han Tao about Liu Yue's background. And Han Tao, who had lived for over 300 years, immediately revealed Liu Yue's origins.

  It turned out that Liu Yue's biological father was one of the four Open Heaven Old Monsters of the Tianxing Sect, Liu Qingxuan.

  Liu Qingxuan is a martial arts fanatic. His eyes only have martial arts, and he has been closed for many years to practice, but more than 30 years ago, he went crazy and under the confusion of God, he actually raped a female apprentice, and Liu Yue was born.

  Liu Qingxuan had previously kept his distance from women, so naturally he had no descendants. But suddenly having a son, he doted on Liu Yue to the bone, yielding to him in everything, and also made Liu Yue become arrogant beyond compare, with no one able to defy him.

  This child is bold and reckless. After getting bored in the cold and desolate country, he actually ran to the Water Origin Country. But it's unknown what kind of trouble he got into, and was caught by someone.

  No time can be wasted, and the five set off immediately, heading towards Qianling City.

  Qianling City is located in the west of Shuǐ Yuán Guó, and it's only a few hundred miles away from the eastern border of Hán Cāng Guó. It's a border city that has been plagued by war for years, so its population isn't large.

  However, the business here is very developed. For example, the specialty of Hansheng Country, Jinyang Grass, flows into Shuiguo Country through here. Although the city is small, the flow of people is extremely large. Every time the two countries stop fighting, it is the busiest day in Qianling City, and countless merchants who take risks to make a fortune.

  From the Imperial Capital to the Eastern Border, it's a journey of about 30,000 miles. For ordinary people traveling by horse-drawn carriage, it would take at least two months to arrive without rest. But for a warrior who has just split the boundary, it doesn't take that long. Such a strong person can cover a month or so in one breath and then use only one day to recover their spiritual energy.

  A journey of thirty thousand miles, an ordinary first-class warrior would probably only need to walk for five or six days.

  Zhou Heng was worried that Lan Fei would ambush them, and that the warriors who had been mobilized to intercept them would strike at any moment. But unexpectedly, five days later they entered the borders of Shuiyuan Country without encountering a single attack.

  Also, Liu Yue's status is very high, and it's likely that Lan Fei wouldn't dare to take the risk of harming her by attacking Zhou Heng, otherwise, after the incident, could a mere imperial concubine withstand the wrath of an Open Heaven realm expert?

  When leaving, they won't take action, but if someone is rescued and brought back, it's different once they enter the borders of Hansheng Country!

  This wretched woman must die!

  Zhou Heng secretly regretted that if it weren't for the urgency of this departure, he would have used his Swift Cloud Flowing Light Step to sneak into the imperial palace and quietly kill Lan Fei. With the Nine Mystical Trials Tower as cover, he could have done it without anyone noticing.

  It's all the same even if I come back and kill you!

  As they entered the Water Origin Country and approached the Thousand Spirit City, it only took an hour for them to arrive at this ancient city that had been ravaged by war.

  Qianling City doesn't know how many times it was destroyed in the war, but as a smuggling trade center between two countries, it will be rebuilt at an extremely fast speed after each destruction.

  The annual trade volume here is amazingly large, and even the royal families of both countries dare not underestimate it, and need to obtain rare resources from each other's countries. Therefore, although the two countries have been hostile for millions of years, business here has never been prohibited, but has been protected instead.

  To reassure the merchants of Hansheng, Suigetsu has even banned its own martial artists above the first rank from entering Qianling City. As a result, a first-rank martial artist can reign supreme here, as long as they don't cause too much trouble, Suigetsu won't send out higher-ranking martial artists to suppress them.

  So, Thousand Sails City is bustling with bustle, but also chaotic to the point of terror. Murder, robbery, and rape are happening almost every minute, every second, making this place both heaven and hell.

  No wonder Liu Yue would run here, for someone who is lawless and unruly, this place is simply a paradise!

  Zhou Heng and the five people walked all the way, only to see that the city was bustling with unprecedented prosperity. The streets were almost packed with people, and the crowdedness far surpassed that of Fengyu City, Tianhang City, and the Imperial Capital.

  There were many thieves on the street, and several of them who didn't know better even thought about making a move on Zhou Heng and his group. However, they encountered a powerful expert from the initial stage of the boundary, so how could they possibly succeed? Instead, they suffered a lesson.

  Lu Runtian was the most ruthless, directly tearing off a thief's arm, causing the other party to scream and bleed to death, attracting many people's attention.

  Han Tao immediately scolded him, they came to rescue people this time, how can they make too much noise? Luo Runtian, however, was not in the least concerned. The little thief was only in the Refining Body realm, and in his eyes, he was like an ant, yet he dared to attack him, so naturally, he had to be severely punished, otherwise, where would the face of a strong man in the Initial Division be?

  Both of them were at the initial stage of the second heavy sky, Han Tao's seniority was useless, martial artists value actual strength rather than age or experience, and he couldn't suppress Luo Runtian at all.

  "That's enough!" Zhou Heng frowned, and the two immediately shut their mouths. Who dared to cross him? "First go and investigate the situation, why Liu Yue was caught, and by whose power."

  The five men first found an inn to stay in and then split up to gather information about Liu Yue.

  At night, the five people gathered at the inn and summarized the information they had investigated. In the end, they restored the truth of Liu Yue's capture event.

  It turned out that this second-generation ancestor was not a good thing. In the first few days of his arrival in Qianling City, he was still calm and even became sworn brothers with Fang Xiaozhu, the young master of the Fang family, a prominent family in the city. However, when he went to the Fang residence as a guest, it was Fang Xiaozhu's beautiful new wife who had an affair with him, and she actually seduced him.

  He wasn't killed outright because Liu Yue had a spatial artifact on him, enough to prove that his background was extraordinary. The Fang family is currently interrogating his origins and plans to figure it out before making any further moves.

  If Liu Yue was a descendant of a powerful family in Shuiguan, then the Fang family could only swallow their pride, as they couldn't afford to offend a force that possessed spatial artifacts! But if it were known that Liu Yue came from Hanshangguo, then he would definitely be unable to escape a fatal fate!

  Hearing about this person's evil deeds, Zhou Heng had an urge to pat his butt and leave. What's the point of saving such a scumbag? Is it to let him harm even more people?

  "What a scumbag!" Shi Yu Luo also spat, as the only woman among the five of them, she naturally had a strong dislike for Liu Yue.

  "Who gave him such a good father!" Luo Runtian said with envy, his eyes scanning Shu Yu's buttocks without leaving any marks, and he secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

  Xiyu Luo is an uncommon beauty, looking like she's twenty-four or five years old. The most enticing thing about her is her butt, plump and rounded, like a ripe peach. When she bends over and sticks out her hips, she always attracts men's greedy gazes.

  Not to mention the initial separation realm, as long as one enters the gathering spirit realm, a martial artist has already surpassed the mortal level, and wanting a beauty is not simple. But what kind of power is the initial separation realm? When doing that thing, it's full of excitement, and if you're not careful, a little more power can directly kill mortals!

  Who would be willing to be cautious when doing that? The world of martial artists is originally dominated by men, and beautiful women above the spiritual realm are scarce resources. Otherwise, Lü Su'e's two previous masters wouldn't have taken turns getting her into bed.

  It's not just Luo Runtian who has a crush on Shi Yuluo, even Han Tao, an old man whose foot is already in the coffin, often stares at Shi Yuluo's plump buttocks with a lustful gaze.

  Believe it or not, if there was a master with heavenly skills, he would have gotten Shi Yu Luo into bed long ago.

  Unfortunately, Shi Yu Luo's eyes didn't have them three at all, and had been staring at Zhou Heng.

  It's only natural, Zhou Heng is exceptionally talented and will surely become a great figure in the future. Moreover, he is already the son-in-law of a powerful being from the Opening Heaven Realm, and even the Old Ancestor of the Tianxing Sect wants to take him as his disciple. This status is not inferior to Liu Yue's at all!

  Zhou Heng, however, looked down on Shi Yu Luo. This woman was not as pure as Lin Fengxiang, nor as beautiful as An Yumei. Her figure couldn't even compare to Gu Zi's, so how could she possibly move his heart?

  "Time is of the essence, take action tonight and rescue Liu Yue, then immediately return to Hansheng Country!"

  Being in an enemy country, everyone has a sense of crisis in their heart.
