The martial aura of Zi Yinyang and Du Zhu's young master was simply too powerful, the spiritual energy in the air was completely absorbed by them. It was as if two martial gods were standing at both ends of the street.

  On the twenty-zhang-wide street, not a single pedestrian was in sight, and the doors of all the shops on both sides were tightly closed. Only Zhang Ruochen stood alone in the middle of the street with his back to Chang QiQi.

  "Zhang Zhang, don't worry about me, put me down and leave first, or you won't be able to escape." Chang Qiqi said weakly and painfully on Zhang Ruochen's back.

  "Walk together if we must walk, stay together if we must stay."

  Zhang Ruochen's eyebrows were furrowed together, his eyes more determined than ever before, with no intention of running away alone.

  They are now very close to the palace, and as soon as the battle breaks out, the strong men in the palace will be able to arrive at the first time.

  So they aren't completely without a chance of survival.

  Zhang Ruochen put Chang Qi down on the ground, took out a healing pill and fed it into Chang Qi's mouth. "Chang Shixiong, you recover from your injuries first, I will definitely bring you out alive."

  He sat on the ground with a pale face, without even the strength to speak, and simply shook his head gently at Zhang Ruochen.

  If Zhang Ruochen abandoned him, perhaps there was still a glimmer of hope for escape.

  But if Zhang Ruochen stays here, then he will definitely die.

  Zhang Ruochen straightened his body and stared at the purple yin-yang above, saying: "You are the young master of the Gate of Hell"

  "That's right." Zi Yin Yang said.

  "With your cultivation, you can easily kill me with ease, yet I've managed to escape from you repeatedly. Do you know the reason why?"

  "If you're thinking of stalling for time, waiting for someone to come and rescue you, then you're sadly mistaken. The Grandmaster of the Moon Demon Sect has already rushed to the palace, personally dealing with the Duke of Yunwu, who is now struggling to save himself." said Zi Yinyang.

  Zhang Ruochen appeared very calm and said: "Since you don't want to know the reason, then forget it, I didn't say anything."

  His eyes sank in contemplation for a moment before he said, "Alright, Ben Shaozhu will give you one last chance to speak."

  "Whether it's your knife skills or your sword skills, there are big loopholes in both."

  "What weakness?" Zi Yinyang asked.

  Zhang Ruochen smiled faintly, but he didn't mean to say anything at all.

  Du Zhū Shǎo Zhǔ Lěng Shēng Dào: "Zǐ Xiōng, Bié Gēn Tā Fèi Huà, Tā Shi Xīang Yù Guò De Yǐng Xiǎng Nǐ De Xīn Shén, Cóng ér Suō Ruò Nǐ De Zhàn Lì. Suǒ Wèi De Lòu Dòng, Zhǐ Shi Tā Piàn Nǐ De Bǎ Xì."

  "You almost got me, but I think it's better if you just keep your mouth shut forever." Zi Yin Yang said.

  Can't help but say, just now Zi Yin Yang was indeed slightly confused in his heart, thinking that it was really a flaw in his own technique. After all, with his cultivation, to kill a martial artist who had just broken through the Earth Boundary would actually require so much effort, which is indeed too abnormal.

  After some thought, he finally realized that there was no flawless technique in the world, just as there was no absolutely perfect person.

  "Whoosh"

  Purple yin and yang flew down from the top of that ancient building, cutting out three sword auras in a row.

  Two sword lights flew towards Zhang Ruochen, and another sword light flew towards Chang Qiqi.

  Zhang Ruochen grasped Chang Qi's war sword and charged forward, striking out with a single slash, dispersing the flying sword energy that was heading towards Chang Qi.

  "Hmm"

  But Zhang Ruochen himself was cut by a sword tip, fortunately blocked by the Binghuo Qilin armor, and only retreated two steps to dissipate the power on the sword tip.

  "Zi Yinyang, you're also considered a top-notch expert among the younger generation of the black market. If you have the skills, come at me directly. Why do you need to use an injured person to restrain me?" Zhang Ruochen said.

  "For a killer, as long as they can kill someone, any method is acceptable."

  Zi Yin Yang strikes again, attacking Chang Qi Qi.

  Zhang Ruochen immediately blocked in front of Chang QiQi, his hands grasping the hilt of the knife, slashing down.

  "Unknown life and death," Zi Yin Yang coldly snorted.

  "Hmph"

  The fish intestine sword pierced Zhang Ruochen's left shoulder, and at the same time, the war knife in Zhang Ruochen's hand cut towards Zi Yinyang's neck.

  Zi Yinyang slightly furrowed his brow, just about to retract the Fish Intestine Sword, but discovered that Zhang Ruochen's shoulder muscles had pinched the sword in place, making it impossible to withdraw.

  It was clear that Zhang Ruochen had deliberately revealed an opening, allowing his sword to pierce into his left shoulder.

  "The lunatic" Zi Yin Yang said coldly.

  Zhang Ruochen was prepared to go all out, but Zi Yinyang had never thought of going down together with Zhang Ruochen.

  At this point, Zi Yinyang could only abandon the Fish Intestine Sword and quickly move two steps to the side, dodging Zhang Ruochen's slash aimed at his neck.

  Zi Yinyang was quite frustrated, Zhang Ruochen was the first person to injure him, and also the first person to force him to abandon his sword. Most importantly, Zhang Ruochen's martial arts cultivation was still far inferior to his own.

  As one of the seven top masters of the younger generation in the black market, he was actually forced to this extent by a teenager over ten years old, and Ziyinyang's face could be said to have lost greatly.

  Zhang Ruochen was also badly hurt and seriously injured.

  The fish intestine sword pierced into the left shoulder, bringing the sword energy into Zhang Ruochen's body. With the wound as the center, a large area of meridians and blood vessels were shattered, completely numb and lost consciousness.

  Enduring the pain, Zhang Ruo Chen pulled out the fish intestine sword stuck in his left shoulder, his body still standing straight, staring intently at Zi Yin Yang, saying: "Guess whether my knife skills are more impressive or my sword skills are more impressive"

  "Even if your swordsmanship is more exquisite, it cannot change your doomed fate today."

  With fingers curled into a claw-like shape, he executed a wondrous step, like a swift gust of wind, and rushed to Zhang Ruochen's face.

  His claws were sharper than refined iron. Five fingers, completely wrapped in cold ice true energy, formed five sharp ice thorns.

  Affected by the true energy of Zi Yin Yang, snowflakes condensed in the air. The snowflakes grew larger and larger, covering a wider and wider range, and the temperature became colder and colder.

  The physique of purple yin and yang can also bring about extraordinary phenomena between heaven and earth.

  "Whoosh whoosh"

  Zhang Ruochen fully unleashed the swordsmanship realm of Jian Xin Tong Ming, and in an instant, he executed twelve moves of swordplay, forcing Zi Yinyang to be unable to get close.

  A shrill cry of "Stop!" rang out.

  In the distance, a slender figure rushed out of a narrow alley.

  She wore a cyan garment, veiled her face, and had a slender figure. Her delicate body was surrounded by strands of white aura, forming a vague and beautiful illusion, making it impossible to see her true appearance.

  Upon seeing this woman appear, Zi Yin Yang immediately stopped and retreated to a distance, coldly saying: "Who are you to dare block this young master from killing?"

  That woman wearing a veil, with a soft smile, seemed to have a hint of disdain, said: "Don't mention you, even if it's Yanluo Wang himself, I dare to call him off, and he must stop."

  "What a big tone."

  The purple yin-yang eyes contracted, bursting out at a speed of 180 meters per second, instantly disappearing from the original place, and one claw attacked the woman wearing a veil.

  Whoosh

  A purple yin-yang flower appeared before his eyes, and suddenly, that woman vanished into thin air.

  Not good.

  Zi Yin Yang immediately turned around, both palms simultaneously striking out, hitting towards the right side.

  Boom

  To the right, a woman struck out with one palm, sending Zi Yin Yang flying tens of feet away.

  And she still stood there, motionless.

  "How is this possible?" Zi Yin Yang only felt his internal blood and energy churning, his arms feeling as if they had been severed, and even the slightest movement of his fingers would cause both arms to ache to the bone.

  In the younger generation, Zi Yinyang considered himself to be exceptional and had never tasted defeat.

  What kind of person is this woman?

  Why was she able to shatter her own proud cultivation with just a casual slap?

  The young master of the Poisonous Spider saw that the situation was not good and immediately rushed over, standing on the left side of the woman, forming a horn-shaped formation with Purple Yin Yang.

  "Miss, getting involved in black market affairs is not a wise move, I advise you to withdraw as soon as possible." The young master of the Poisonous Spider said coldly while playing with his bronze curved knife.

  Only Du Zhu knew in the scene that Zhang Ruochen could control spatial power, and naturally did not allow outsiders to rescue Zhang Ruochen.

  "What if I don't let go?" The woman's voice was soft and charming, yet it also gave people a very ethereal feeling, completely revealing her true age.

  The Poisonous Spider Lord and Purple Yin Yang exchanged a quick glance before attacking simultaneously.

  This time, they didn't hold back at all and burst out with full force.

  After being nourished by the true energy, the injured arms of Zi Yin Yang have recovered, and their strength has not only not weakened, but has become even stronger.

  It's clear that when he fought Zhang Ruochen before, he didn't use his full strength.

  "Hong Hong"

  A moment later, Zi Yinyang and Du Zhu's mouths spewed out fresh blood as they flew backward and fell to the ground.

  They got up from the ground with a disheveled appearance, looking extremely embarrassed and shocked, staring at the woman standing in the middle of the street.

  "You are a warrior of Tianji Realm," said Duozhu Shaoye.

  That woman smiled and said: "To deal with you ignorant people, there's no need for a martial artist from the Heavenly Extremes Realm; even one from the Earthly Rankings can handle it."

  Zi Yinyang covered her chest, with a thread of blood hanging from the corner of her mouth. She shook her head and said, "Among the young generation of the 36 states of Tianmo Ridge, only two women have entered the Earth Ranking. You absolutely cannot be one of them."

  "But I am the third one." said the woman wearing a veil.

  "Your strength is probably ranked high on the Earth Ranking."

  Du Zhuzi said, "Indeed, there are heavens beyond the heavens and people beyond people. Today we admit defeat, defeated by your hands, and we are convinced in our hearts and mouths. But I wonder if you can leave behind your name, so that we may know who it was that defeated us."

  "Hmph, you can't even withstand one of my moves, yet you still want to know my name? I'm already giving the black market face by not killing you." The woman said coldly with a smile.

  "When I break through to the Earth Extreme Boundary's Great Perfection, I will definitely have a final showdown with you." The Poisonous Spider Young Master was extremely unwilling to give up, and after spitting out a ruthless remark, he led the poisonous spider merchants' evil martial artists in a dispirited retreat.

  As long as that masked woman is around, even if all the evil Taoist warriors of the Poison Spider Merchant Association come out, they won't be able to catch Zhang Ruochen, and it's even possible that she'll wipe them all out.

  That masked woman's strength was too terrifying, simply unfathomable. The young master of the Poisonous Spider thought that even if his cultivation broke through to the Earth Extreme Realm's Great Perfection, he might not be able to withstand her for ten moves.

  Zi Yin Yang's gaze turned towards Zhang Ruochen, staring at the sword in his hand, saying: "Within three months, I will personally retrieve the Fish Intestine Sword."

  After saying this, Zi Yinyang also turned and left.

  The entire street was left with only Zhang Ruochen and the woman wearing a veil, as well as Cheng QiQi who had fainted and was lying on the ground.

  The two people looked at each other, but didn't say a word.
