Chapter 151: The Supreme Grandmaster? One Punch to Disable!
Chapter 151: The Supreme Grandmaster? One Punch to Disable!
Qingzhou.
Yongyuan Prefecture, Linyuan City.
Deep within the Commander's Mansion.
Su Zimo, still recovering from his severe injuries, had a face as pale as ever, especially since it had only been a few days since the death of the Dragon Sovereign of Cangyuan.
However, at this moment, his face was cold and his aura was not the least bit weak. His cold eyes stared intently at the front.
There, a fat figure sat leisurely on a grandmaster's chair, sipping hot tea.
And behind this fat figure stood three Grandmasters with powerful auras like deep abysses!
"Well, have you thought it through?"
At this moment, as if sensing Su Zimo's gaze, the fat figure sneered and casually asked.
Su Zimo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't speak.
On both sides of him sat Xiang Qingyu, Sun Zilan, Fu Yu, and the Great Generals of the Ji-Yi-Bing Three Armies.
Also present were the martial geniuses Wei Qingshuang, Mo Xingshan, and Wu Bingyi.
"Do you know how grave a crime it is to privately imprison a state's Commander and an official appointed by the court?"
Sun Zilan was the first to lose her patience and shouted.
With these words, a shadow of gloom flashed across the eyes of Su Zimo, Xiang Qingyu, and the others.
But the fat man in front of them suddenly sat up straight and shouted, "You woman, don't talk nonsense!"
"The Commander was injured while trying to eliminate Qingzhou's great threat. The State Governor's Mansion is just helping to treat his injuries!"
"The Commander is currently receiving treatment at the State Governor's Mansion. What do you mean by 'privately imprison'? You little girl, don't twist the truth and confuse right and wrong!"
At this point, the fat man smiled slightly and scanned the crowd in front of him, then said, "If you all know what's good for you, as long as you agree to pledge allegiance to the State Governor, we will definitely ensure the Commander's safe return. Otherwise..."
The fat man narrowed his eyes, and his tone turned threatening.
In an instant, the crowd's faces sank, and anger surged in their eyes.
And just at that moment, everyone sensed a powerful demonic aura rising from the outer courtyard.
This change instantly broke the solemn atmosphere among the crowd.
Whoosh!
Xiang Qingyu instantly stood up, holding a great halberd and taking a step forward, ready to leave swiftly.
But another figure was even faster!
Bang!
The halberd clashed with a long spear, and Xiang Qingyu involuntarily took a few steps back.
In front of him stood one of the three Grandmasters behind the fat man!
With just one move, the victor was clear!
The three Grandmasters from the State Governor's Mansion were the strongest among the second-tier experts!
Xiang Qingyu's face immediately turned extremely gloomy. He gripped his halberd tightly and was about to charge forward again.
But at this moment, a hand gently patted his shoulder and said, "I'll take care of this."
Wei Qingshuang from the Jiazi Army!
The first personal disciple Wei Wuji accepted in Qingzhou!
Under his leadership, the Jiazi Army became one of Qingzhou's top ten military camps!
At the same time, two more figures stepped forward and said, "Leave it to us."
Mo Xingshan from the Bing Word Camp and Wu Bingyi from the Bing Word Camp!
Both were once Wei Wuji's most outstanding disciples and were later appointed as Great Generals, commanding a camp each.
With the three of them taking action, the three Grandmasters from the State Governor's Mansion looked more solemn.
The tense atmosphere seemed to be broken at this moment, and a great battle was about to erupt in the Commander's Mansion.
Seeing this, the fat man sitting on the grandmaster's chair not only showed no fear but also revealed a playful expression.
However, just as everyone was about to make their move, the demonic aura rising from the outer courtyard suddenly disappeared, as if interrupted.
This change caused the fat man's face to freeze instantly.
He quickly turned his head and looked in the direction where the demonic aura had disappeared.
Then, his body shot up at a speed that didn't match his physique, like a phantom, and rushed out in an instant.
Wei Qingshuang, Mo Xingshan, and Wu Bingyi reacted immediately.
But the three Grandmasters from the State Governor's Mansion also instantly closed in and entangled the three.
At this moment, Su Zimo closed his eyes, and his divine soul power seeped out of his body.
Xiang Qingyu's eyes flashed, and he also gripped his halberd and took a step forward.
Sun Zilan and Fu Yu also tightened their grip on their weapons and followed closely.
In an instant, the four personal disciples united their efforts and were about to intercept the fat man.
But facing the four of them, the fat man merely turned and threw a punch.
A powerful and vast force, like a tornado, instantly broke through the air and slammed onto Xiang Qingyu's halberd.
Boom!
In less than an instant, the one renowned for his strength, known as the 'Tyrant,' was sent flying backward.
He then crashed into Sun Zilan and Fu Yu, and all three of them fell to the ground.
At the same time, Su Zimo suddenly opened his eyes, spit out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his face turned even paler. His aura also plummeted to its lowest point.
"I've been keeping an eye on you, kid."
The fat man sneered, and around his neck hung a white jade pendant that was emitting a faint glow.
Then, without saying more, he turned and rushed towards the direction where the demonic aura had just disappeared.
Only now did his eyes reveal a hint of solemnity.
That old fox is the close guard of the Fifth Young Master. Its aura being interrupted means it likely encountered an opponent it couldn't defeat!
In that case, the Fifth Young Master might be in danger!
However, he couldn't quite understand why. That old fox was a Demon Sage Realm demon and a formidable existence within that realm.
In Linyuan City, the only ones capable of threatening it were the personal disciples of the Commander from the Ji-Yi-Bing Three Armies.
Amidst the chaos, everyone was preoccupied with the ongoing battle within the Inner Courtyard, leaving no opportunity for intervention.
Could it be that the Grand Master from the Imperial Martial Academy in the capital has returned from the Mo Xu Demon Cavern?
If so, then the ambush at the Demon Cavern must have failed! This realization caused his expression to darken instantly.
Before he could even reach the Inner Courtyard, a figure clad in a golden-patterned black robe appeared before his eyes.
The moment he saw this figure, his pupils constricted, and he noticed the limp body being held by the figure, resembling a dead dog. His face immediately turned as calm as water.
"Put him down!" the stout man shouted.
Qin Zheng calmly observed the stout man who had suddenly appeared before him.
The aura emanating from the stout man was similar to Zhao Li's, indicating that he was also a Supreme Grandmaster.
The foundation of the Prefect's Mansion was indeed profound.
In Yong'an Prefecture, he had personally slain five Grand Masters, including Gao Wuying, making it six in total.
And now, excluding the few auras engaged in combat within the Inner Courtyard, the stout man before him was also a Supreme Grandmaster.
Leaning on the support of the Gao Clan in Quanyang, it was no wonder that the Prefect's Mansion was extraordinary.
No wonder Wei Wuji had sought justice but ended up trapped himself.
This thought flashed through Qin Zheng's mind.
Then, he held up Gao Wuying and calmly said, "You want me to put him down?"
The stout man's face was filled with anger. Since his ascension to the Supreme Grandmaster realm, no one had ever dared to treat him with such disdain.
Especially considering the aura emanating from the stout man, he was merely a newly promoted Grand Master.
As he was about to take a step back and attempt to snatch Gao Wuying from the stout man's grasp, another figure appeared, causing him to abandon this thought and look on with a hint of apprehension.
"Why did Zhao, the Grand Marshal of Qingzhou, return to the capital so hastily, only to come to this insignificant Linyuan City?" the stout man asked.
Zhao Li quickened his pace to catch up with Qin Zheng.
As Zhao Li's gaze fell upon the stout man in the distance, he also sensed the intense battle raging within the Inner Courtyard.
"I was wondering why Marshal Wu, instead of assisting Governor Gao in Xuan'en Prefecture, has come to Linyuan City?" Zhao Li inquired.
"Marshal Wu has no business meddling in others' affairs," Wu Ruguang replied with a grim expression. "Some fires, once ignited, will burn you to death."
A cold light flashed in Zhao Li's eyes as he was about to respond.
At that moment, the young man beside Qin Zheng spoke up, "Where is the Grand Marshal of Qingzhou, Wei Wuji?"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Li fell silent, as this was indeed a matter of utmost importance.
Wu Ruguang's eyebrows rose slightly, as if he had found a flaw in Qin Zheng's plan.
"The Grand Marshal is currently recuperating in our Mansion after sustaining severe injuries while slaying demons," Wu Ruguang said. "If you wish..."
Before he could finish his sentence, the youth in the golden-patterned black robe moved, disappearing from their sight in an instant.
Zhao Li's heart was filled with astonishment, but before he could react, a powerful hand had already landed on his chest.
In an instant, an overwhelming force, like a surging flood, rushed into his body, inundating his internal organs.
Whoosh!
Boom!!!
The stout man's corpulent body flew backward like an arrow, smashing through several fake mountains and courtyards before crashing heavily onto the ground.
Blood gushed from his mouth like a spring.
With just one palm strike, a Supreme Grandmaster had been completely defeated.
Qin Zheng's expression remained calm, as if the strike had not come from him. He strode towards Wu Ruguang.
Behind him, Zhao Li's face was frozen in shock.
Wu Ruguang was a Supreme Grandmaster, and so was Qin Zheng. Their strengths were on par.
In other words, just as Qin Zheng had defeated Wu Ruguang with a single palm, he could do the same to Zhao Li.
Ever since Qin Zheng effortlessly slew three Saint Envoys of the Mo Xu Demon Cavern, Zhao Li had been mentally prepared for such an outcome.
Now that the truth was revealed, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.
Zhao Li heaved a heavy sigh.
Quickening his pace, he followed Qin Zheng.
As Qin Zheng made his move, the intense battle within the nearby Inner Courtyard continued.
The three Grand Masters from the Prefect's Mansion were locked in a fierce exchange with the three Great Generals from the Jiazi, Bing, and Bing Camps, making it difficult to determine a clear victor.
Su Zimo's face was pale, and he had lost his fighting ability.
Sun Zilan, who was not skilled in combat, was also unable to move.
Only Xiang Qingyu and Fu Yu managed to stand up, intending to join the fight.
However, just one punch from the stout man had left them almost completely powerless.
Xiang Qingyu's eyes were filled with resentment and anger.
Despite his exceptional talent, diligent cultivation, and the guidance of the Grand Marshal, he couldn't withstand a casual punch from someone else.
As his emotions fluctuated, he suddenly heard a loud and intense sound.
The direction of this sound was the same as the one Wu Ruguang had just headed towards.
Upon hearing this intense sound, even the six combatants paused to look in that direction.
A youth in a golden-patterned black robe appeared, holding two bodies in his hands.
One of them was the arrogant and domineering Fifth Young Master, Gao Wuying.
The other was the stout man, Wu Ruguang, who had just defeated Xiang Qingyu and the others with a single punch.
