“Oh right, junior brother! What happened to you just now?”

The muscular man, Ren Tianxing, remembered the reason why their conversation began, “What did you see just now? Did you bump into a ghost?”

“You are the one that bumped into a ghost!”

The teen scholar scoffed in annoyance, in his heart, however, he knew why he asked.

Only just now, he didn’t use the talisman that master had given him, so how could he even ‘see’ anything.

Just now, he had some connection with the heavens. Maybe he should really make his decision.

Although he believed than men would definitely beat the heavens, he learned that from the master. Thus, he would more or less not bother with such matters.

“I have decided! I will remain in this Gantian Mountain and be comrades with senior brother. That doesn’t seem too bad!”

“Oh?”

The muscular man was shocked, turning around and looking towards his junior brother.

What was happening? Two days ago, his junior brother was still scolding Monster King, why did he suddenly decide to stay?

In his heart, he was really curious, only roughly feeling that something had happened. He couldn’t guess the reason, so he just directly asked.

“Why did you suddenly decide to stay? Don’t you think that your decision was too quick? Moreover, it is also when Gantian Mountain is unstable?”

Whilst he said this he looked toward the city walls several miles away, with a weird gaze. Not long ago, that side had changed defending troops.

Those Eight Tail Xue Family people thought that what they did would leave no marks and was waterproof. However, in some eyes, they were unable to hide it from anyone.

“Unstable? Why do I not feel the same way?”

The teen scholar laughed. Even with illusionary techniques, it couldn’t be hidden. This caused the surrounding people to all look over. It frightened the muscular man such that his face was devoid of color. He had a thought and laughed out too, covering the voice of the teen scholar to avoid the matter.

However, what it resulted in was those on-duty soldiers looking at him like they were looking at a crazy person.

“That left pillar Qiu is really too calm. Those seven tail Zong Family people seemed like they were controlled but don’t you think that the way they looked at the Xue Family people is really weird? I didn’t expect that his highness has such high prestige within the Zong Family. It isn’t something inconceivable, that in the entire race, there would be no traitors. However, why do I feel that the two pillar generals are prepared to lay down a trap?”

“Is that so?”

Ren Tianxing’s brows rose and then he laughed, “Hearing you say this, then I am at ease! However, this isn’t the reason why you suddenly chose this monster king. Even if the situation here is not bad, after all, this is a barbaric and desolate land…”

The teen scholar kept silent and didn’t speak. Actually, he, himself, didn’t know why he had made such a choice.

If he had to really give a reason, it would be that he could show all his talents here and not worry about anything else.

He always felt that he was really talented, taking up eight out of ten of the world.

If he didn’t leave chances for others, he was most probably going to be envied and hated.

This place was one that made him feel slightly more at ease…

Even the ruler of the country lived under the laws, willingly giving power to others. Such a ruler would probably be able to accept him?

“Senior brother, even if I know my strategic talent is unrivaled in the world, I am still worried that if the cunning rabbit is dead, the hound is boiled!”

Saying these words out of nowhere, Ren Tianxing was totally confused. Following this, the teen scholar laughed out.

“Senior brother, I remember that your Ren Family still has ten thousand private troops right?”

“That’s right!”

Ren Tianxing looked over curiously when he heard this, “However the ruler doesn’t allow any private armies within Gantian City. Uncle had prepared to disarm and disband the troops. I heard that the other races are similar too. Now is much different from before and everyone can be at ease, not needing to be worried about waking up to their entire race being slaughtered. There was also no need to raise such private troops. Why are you asking about this?”

The teen scholar let out a fox-like smile, “Since I am prepared to work for his highness, naturally one must be able to show one’s ability. I can’t just stand out and say I am a talent in strategy, it would be a huge mistake not to use me. First, I will deal with this huge matter, then I will be able to meet the ruler…”

Ren Tianxing was stunned once more and then he burst out laughing.

In his heart, he was thinking about how to borrow his uncle’s private army to follow his junior brother to do this crazy job.

In the deep underground lake, just as Zong Shou’s sword intent raged he suppressed the entire lake. The moment his aura resonated with the Avici Throne behind him, it was discernible. Suddenly, the air in front of his body suddenly twisted.

A fist shadow suddenly broke the air. With mountain-like energy and filled with a tough fist intent, it smashed over.

Even Zong Shou held his breath. That fist was too sudden! Coincidentally, it arrived when the six of them had ganged up and surrounded him, how tough! His entire body’s strength was used in dealing with these few people and was now unable to deal with it.

His eyes squinted before Zong Shou laughed out loud. What a waste! If this were a few breaths ago, this fist might have directly taken his life.

However, today, it was still a step slower.

The sword in his hand was being tied up. Thus, he used his hand to replace the sword, combining his fingers to stab out!

Pretty much without using much true qi, only with Little Gold turning into a thin layer, he wrapped up his entire arm and fist.

The finger that looked really ordinary and not really strong, however, it seemed extremely domineering!

Pu! Splash!

It first broke that fist energy, then, there was a series of energy explosion noises.

The energy which suppressed over like that of a mountain and an ocean instantly broke apart in front of his body and spread all about.

The word finger finally clashed with the giant fist.

Another explosion erupted as blood mist sprayed everywhere.

Zong Shou’s hands were totally unharmed, but his body was sent hundreds of feet backward. The fist was also smashed into pieces, the entire arm was turned in a bloody mist and scattered all over!

Following this, a painful cry sounded out in the air.

Although his lungs felt a little pain, he laughed out in glee.

He had fought thousands of sword battles but none of them could be compared to the one today!

The peak of the Soul Realm, he finally grasped a little bit of inspiration!

However, who was that? Hiding his tracks such that the six of them couldn’t notice. Striking out this lethal blow when he was most focused and couldn’t split any focus to handle it.

The strength of that fist was only weaker than Jueyu…

The surrounding six people were furious. Leidong’s eyes turned red and he was the first to Attack. One knife and one sword in his hand, he followed the aura and clashed in the air.

Jueyu and Li Wuhui’s expressions were dark and sunken. Right away, the Great Extinction Sword and Time Knife chased.

Yuan Wushang shouted out “Shameless dog!” and retracted his sword. He tore open the space and headed right for where that voice came from.

Shui Lingbo turned around and struck, punching out and smashing that piece of space into pieces.

Along with the explosion, a person fell out. His body was covered in blood, however, he stopped for just a moment before flying outwards at a speed that couldn’t be picked up by the naked eye.

Even Shui Lingbo was slightly shocked. Locking down on his aura was really tough. Even with her sharp senses, that person nearly escaped several times.

Yuan Wushang laughed out loud, “You think you can escape in front of Yuan Wushang? Explode!”

The horizon instantly tore apart, Heaven and Earth spiritual energy exploded out!

When the spiritual light flashed, only then did the black shadow show itself. Leidong’s knife and sword combination attack made the person scoff.

Following this, the Time Knife and Great Extinction Sword slashed across and the person’s body was instantly wiped out.

The physical body and soul were totally destroyed.

Jueyu frowned slightly, he wanted to snatch the person’s soul to give Zong Shou an explanation. Thus, he retracted some strength. His Great Extinction Sword was actually not worth its name.

Who knew the person would be so decisive to shatter his own soul!

Who was that? The battle was so intense, but it was interrupted, how depressing.

Zong Shou’s sword actually reached another level at such an intense moment!

At this moment, Li Wuhui has stepped to the side. A spell cast out and the scattered meat and soul fragments instantly gathered.

Slowly his brow furrowed, his eyes filled with confusion.

“Stop trying! Unless you have someone who could turn back time…”

Shui Lingbo reached out, calling back the red sword. A cold smile on her face, “It is a second soul puppet body. The person who acted is probably in the Spirit Realm.”

The people here, their brows all rose, however, they didn’t care much. They were all talents and even Saint Realm was something they would be able to reach.

Spirit Realm experts might be high and unreachable in the eyes of others, but in their eyes, it was just that, something they would chase up and surpass!

Instead, it was what that person did which annoyed him.

Yuan Wushang thought seriously about it, then he laughed coldly, “In this world, no one dares to do that in front of me! If I meet him next time I will slay him!”

After he finished, he tore open space and actually directly left.

Jueyu nodded his head, “I will investigate this matter and give you an explanation!”

He wasn’t willing to stay either, nodding and slightly bowing towards everyone.

Li Wuhui laughed, that voice seemed to come from the depths of hell.

“I kind of guessed his identity. It might have something to do with the Yang Family. That person really doesn’t want to live!”

After he finished, he smiled at Zong Shou, “Today I really have no more face to attack, goodbye!”

Looking at them leave Zong Shou was startled. With them gone, they all didn’t mention that book.

Did that mean the so-called Universe Book his?

Ruotao also kept his sword into his sheath and smiled, “Ruler fought one against six today, I am impressed! This book was originally yours to start with! We attacked only because of the joy when a hunter sees its prey and can’t help it, I just wanted to test out the sword in my hand.”
