Chapter 90: Pang City Master

  Li Ran's sword was about to strike again, when suddenly the three of them parted ways. A sword tip appeared like a shooting star from outside, and a stream of light pierced through the gap between the three people. In an instant, everyone in the arena felt as if they were trapped in a deep quagmire, and the aura on that sword was so powerful that it immobilized everyone's body.

  Three attendants were momentarily overjoyed, never expecting that after their master had reached the tenth peak of the realm, his swordsmanship would be so miraculous and uniform, producing a powerful domain. Under this sword, the combined strength of the three men's refined essence and eighth-level vigor still struggled to resist, but could the young man opposite them still have a way out?

  Three attendants were defeated by Li's knife and extremely unwilling, shouting in unison: "Go die!"

  Li Ran's eyes were heavy with concentration, his entire body bound by the sword domain, making every movement extremely difficult. A strong practitioner at the peak of the tenth level of Essence indeed far surpassed those spiritual beasts in the Illusory Spirit Cave, and a single swift sword strike from him left Li Ran with a sense of astonishment in his heart.

  The man in brocade clothes with triangular eyes had a kind of enchanting and strange aura, this sword exhausted his entire strength, the power of the sword made him inexplicably excited.

  With a swish, it stabbed straight into Li Nian's chest.

  Li Ran's sword suddenly moved in the heavy sword domain, with a faint sound of waves rising and falling in the sword. His wrist shook slightly, and the long sword easily cut through all the domains, its momentum seeming to be slow but actually fast. With a loud clang, it collided with the long sword of the brocade-clothed man.

  Jian Shu, also known as Heavy Tide.

  The man in brocade felt the power of the young man's sword surging towards him, a boiling force that struck his chest and completely neutralized his forward momentum, sending him flying backward involuntarily.

  He made a backflip and landed several feet away, only to find the second wave crashing down in front of him. He was still unsteady on his feet, but fortunately, his lower body stance was solid. However, he felt his upper body leaning backward, so he quickly tapped his right foot on the ground and sprang backward, using the momentum to jump back over a dozen feet.

  After landing, the sword energy actually had a third wave, and with a loud crash, a huge wave crashed down, causing him to stumble backward seven or eight steps, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face suddenly pale.

  This sword caused an uproar throughout the arena.

  Three attendants hastily retreated and scattered, rushing to the side of the man in brocade clothes to support him, looking at Li Neng's knife as if it were a ghost.

  Brocade-clad cultivator refined the blood of those hunting households, absorbing the medicinal power of the Blood Fox, and had already broken through to the peak realm below the Divine Movement stage. Looking at the young man opposite him, who clearly hadn't reached the Divine Movement stage, he was somehow able to wield his sword with such ease, forcing their master back three times despite being severely injured - what kind of power was this?

  Li Ran's heart felt a refreshing and thrilling sensation that shot straight up to his head, his eyes even lit up.

  Xiao Jian's fourfold sword intent was realized through the waterfall, and he understood the heavy tide of the sword technique. The power of one sword with fourfold secret patterns was incredibly formidable.

  As for defeating the brocade-clothed man, Li Ruo's knife was not surprised. Before reaching the heavy tide, Li Ruo's knife had already entered the ranks of gray clothes and golden swords, and almost had the power to fight against the strong gods. What made Li Ruo happy was that after the heavy tide came out, he could now defeat the brocade-clothed man with such ease and elegance, and a casual sword would make his opponent unable to parry.

  This power ignited Li Ruo's ambition like a raging fire.

  The person in brocade clothes opposite him was shocked and looked at Li Ran with an unbelievable expression.

  In the midst of the chaotic stone slope, he didn't take Li and Ran's duo seriously at all. If it wasn't for his haste in chasing after the Blood Fox, his attendants would have had doubts back then, and he would have already ordered them to kill the two. Now that he thinks about it, there is a deep sense of fear in his heart.

  The man in the brocade clothes wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth with force, glaring furiously at Li Ran and shouting: "You little brat, who are you? What brings you to intrude into my City West Mansion?"

  Li Ran's eyes were filled with a mixture of pity and sympathy as he gazed at the man in brocade clothes, and he let out a quiet sigh.

  It's only now that I've thought of asking myself what my purpose is. If I didn't actually have the ability, others probably wouldn't even bother to ask me what my purpose is and would just kill me off directly.

  Li Ran pointed to the five hunters behind him and said coldly, "I am a relative of these people. I have come today to seek justice for them. I will take all of them away."

  The man in brocade suddenly sneered, stood up straight and said lightly: "Youngster, have you gone mad to say such big words. Do you think this is somewhere else? The West City Palace will not let you take people out easily, look at what this is?"

  The man in brocade clothes waved his hand backwards, and on the wall of the courtyard, hundreds of archers and crossbowmen were densely lined up, with their bows and crossbows drawn, arrows and bolts gleaming coldly, tightly aiming at Li Ran's knife and those five hunters.

  Li Ran Jian was startled in his heart and carefully retreated a step back, retreating to the side of the five hunters.

  Those bows and crossbows were not a great threat to him, and he could easily rush out with Yu Shu's protection, but he couldn't protect the other hunters.

  After all, they were also persecuted people, Li Ruo couldn't bear to throw them down.

  While hesitating and wanting to think of a foolproof plan, suddenly a loud shout came from the stone gate: "Stop in your tracks!"

  A robust and majestic-looking man strode in hastily.

  The elite soldiers on the wall were shocked at the same time, and the man waved his hand towards the wall. The elite soldiers retreated like a tide, and in the blink of an eye, there was no one left.

  Brocade clothes man saw this figure, face a happy, two steps forward shouted: "Big brother, you came......" Suddenly saw his big brother side, another green clothes man with a light expression followed by the side, is in the chaotic stone slope met another person.

  The man in brocade was taken aback and suddenly stopped in his tracks, stunned, unsure how his elder brother had ended up with the man in green.

  Li Ran let out a long sigh.

  The bowstring's tension was released, and he suddenly relaxed all over without any reason.

  Li Ran was not a reckless person. Since the West City Mansion was a separate residence of the City Master's Mansion, he had already informed Fang Ziyi through a transmission token before entering, and took the lead in entering, only because he was afraid that Yu Shu would encounter danger and could not wait any longer.

  Fang Shixiong and the city master arrived, all within Li Ran's plan.

  Qing Yi Fangzi Yan walked beside the robust man, scanning his surroundings with a furrowed brow, then turned to look at Li Reng Dao, his voice filled with an air of authority as he slowly asked: "Reng Dao, which one is your adoptive father?"

  Li Rendao pointed at Yu Shu with his knife, and Fang Ziyuan saw the look on Yu Fantou's face. The anger in his heart also ignited, and he coldly said to Li Rendao:

  "Ran Jian, this is Pang Chengzhu, come and pay your respects quickly."

  Li Ruo turned his head vigilantly towards the direction of the brocade-clad man, took two steps forward, and walked to the side of the majestic-looking man. He bowed slightly and said: "I've seen Lord Pang City. My adoptive father is in mortal danger, Li Ruo is anxious to save him, and I apologize for any disrespect."

  Fang Ziyuan nodded slightly and turned to look at Pang Chengzhu, saying: "Old Pang, this brother of mine is a disciple of the Golden Sword of Xuánjī Mountain. In terms of status, he is even more noble than you, a Divine Movement Strongman. The Burning Blade showed respect to me because I am his friend, and as his friend, you should not have received a courtesy from him."

  Pang Chengzhu's face changed to one of alarm, and he hastily returned Li Ruo's courtesy, bitterly smiling: "Brother is too polite, this was originally my fault, I didn't teach him properly..."

  Fang Ziyuan nodded again and said, "Old Pang, it's not me saying this, but if something really happens to Fu Rong, you should know the style of our Xuanji Mountain. We will never forgive you, and at that time, I'm afraid even I won't be able to protect you."

  Pang Cheng's face was suddenly covered in cold sweat.

  He hastily walked two steps to the side of the five hunters, reached out to feel their pulses, and knew that they were not in mortal danger. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief, and hastily walked two steps to the side of the man in brocade, suddenly raised his hand, and with a loud slapping sound, gave him a ruthless slap. Instantly, five black finger marks appeared on the face of the man in brocade.

  The man in brocade and his four attendants behind him were all stunned.

  They understood the meaning of Fangzi Yan's words just now, and it wasn't until then that Jin Yicai realized he had offended a ruthless person who even his elder brother couldn't protect him from. No wonder a young man like him had such formidable strength - it turned out he was the Grey Robe Golden Sword of Xuanyuan Mountain.

  Such a powerful person hasn't appeared in ages, how could I have run into him myself?

  People in silk clothes have been so angry that their intestines turned green.

  "Stop standing there stupidly! Release him at once! Release him!"

  The four attendants hastily walked over and took down several hunting bows from the wooden pillars.

  These iron-armored military leaders were still too weak in the eyes of this city lord, and among those bound hunters, there was even a foster father whom the city lord himself could not provoke. The four of them trembled with fear, only then realizing that they had lost to that young man's hand not unjustly.

  Pang Chengzhu turned to Li Ruo Dao with a smile: "Brother Ruo Dao, this matter is indeed due to my own lack of discipline. I know I'm wrong, and I hope you can forgive me on behalf of our fellow disciple. These five hunters will each receive 100 taels of silver as compensation, and I'll also invite a famous doctor to treat them, ensuring they recover fully!"

  Li Ruo originally wanted to let Fang Shixiong and the city master come together, thinking that on account of Fang Shixiong's face, they could smoothly rescue Yu Shu. Who would have thought that things took a drastic turn? From Fang Shixiong's words, he discovered that his identity as the gray-clothed golden swordsman was unexpectedly so useful.

  Li Ran had always been a lone cultivator in his past life, and for the first time in his life, he felt the power of relying on the backing of a large sect.

  If he had known this earlier, he would have revealed his identity when he entered the City West Mansion and avoided a lot of trouble.

  Watching Yu Shu wake up after being rescued, Li Ran took a deep breath and nodded.

  It's quite a perfect ending, walking over to personally help Yu Shu up, Yu Shu's face was pale, with eyes full of gratitude looking at this younger cousin, knowing that if it weren't for this younger cousin's rescue, his own life would have ended here.

  Li Ruo said to Fang Ziyuan: "Brother, I want to ask you for another set of transmission talismans."

  Fang Ziyuan was taken aback, unsure of Li Ruo's intentions. He casually took out two gray talismans and handed them over. Li Ruo accepted them and, in front of Pang Chengzhu and the brocade-clad person, slipped one of the sound-transmitting talismans into his uncle's hand, saying calmly:

  "Foster father, keep this Sound Transmission Token close to you. If there's any danger in the future, just ignite it with your pure yuan and I'll know immediately. I'll rush over at the first moment. From now on, whoever dares to bully our family again, I won't let them off so easily."

  Li Ruo's knife supported Yu Shu as they walked out, behind them Pang Chengzhu couldn't help but bitterly smile, exchanging a glance with Fang Ziyi, and saw a hint of playful smile in Fang Ziyi's eyes. Pang Chengzhu secretly sighed: "This young man is really ruthless, it seems that this time he has remembered the grudge."
