t the towering palace walls. Sunlight couldn't penetrate, and under the shade, the chill intensified.Zhang Liyang had to go to Yuanyuan Palace, even though the owner of Yuanyuan Palace was almost at h..."A thousand taels of gold, huh..." Zhang Liyang lowered his head slightly. "I don't know whether to thank you for underestimating me or be angry at you for doing so!"

But no matter what, if you think I'd give up my life for a thousand taels of gold, you're mistaken!

Rip~~

Sword light like molten steel, tearing through the air!

Although Zhang Liyang doesn't know swordsmanship, he wields his sword like a cleaver. As long as his speed is fast and his strength is great, that's terrifying swordplay!

Under the moonlight, blood surged, and the long sword danced like a silver death god in the night. In an instant, it reaped a life.

Looking at the man beheaded by a single sword, Zhang Liyang once again waved his whip and continued forward. As for the person who shot the arrow in secret, Zhang Liyang did not waste time searching for him.

As long as the opponent dares to fire another arrow, Zhang Liyang has the confidence to instantly find their location.

It's a pity, the opponent was clearly very cautious. They didn't fire another arrow until the second wave of attacks came.

"Gone Or still waiting for an opportunity"

He suppressed the doubts in his heart and looked across.

There are three people here, two men and one woman.

"Huh That's the sword of the Qinghu Swordsman!"

Seeing the azure longsword displayed on the carriage, the woman among the three showed a hint of surprise.

Qinghu Jianke's skill isn't bad, and he has some reputation in the martial arts world. Plus, the Qinghu Jianpai behind him is also quite powerful.

Now that the Qinghu swordsman's long sword is in Zhang Liyang's hands, it's safe to assume the Qinghu swordsman didn't fare well.

"Hmph, just a small clown." The other young man in the trio scoffed, "He's only going because he has a powerful sect backing him up."

"That's enough," the oldest man spoke up, "Being able to take down the Qinghu Swordmaster so quickly means he's formidable. All of you, be careful."

"Don't worry, boss." The young man grinned. "A thousand taels of gold This deal is in the bag."

"Up!"

With a furious roar, the oldest man in the middle charged forward first. His ferocious energy made him look like a raging bull as he lunged towards Zhang Liyang.

As for the young man, he had also arrived at Zhang Liyang's left side. In his hand was a long, gleaming spear, like a viper's fangs poised to strike with deadly force.

In the end, it was that woman who remained. With her hands waving, silver needles as fine as hairs shot through the surrounding air, silently and swiftly striking Zhang Liyang's face first!

Of these three, the highest cultivation level belonged to this middle-aged man, reaching the Eight Meridian Realm. However, the most dangerous one was actually the woman at the back.

Silver needles, as fine as hair strands, coupled with their silent and stealthy nature, mean that countless people fall victim to them simply by looking in the mirror.

Once Zhang Liyang was struck by the silver needle, the toxin on the needle would cause his blood and Qi to congeal into clumps within his body. Afterward, the middle-aged man would directly blast through his defenses, and the young man would be responsible for the final blow.

This is their most common tactic, and the one with the highest success rate.

It's a pity they picked the wrong target tonight.

Faced with the silver needles piercing through the air, Zhang Liyang merely shielded his head with his hands. Beneath his azure-colored robe, Zhang Liyang hardly needed to worry about any other attacks from the silver needles.

Even if a silver needle struck Zhang Liyang's palm, it wouldn't even pierce the surface of his immovable mountain-like flesh defense.

Seeing that her silver needles had no effect whatsoever, the woman's face instantly changed color. Just as she was about to remind her teammate, a deafening roar suddenly erupted.

"Still as a mountain!"

With both palms like mountains, he slapped towards the middle-aged man opposite him. The immense force caused the surrounding air to swirl like a heavy wave of energy, following closely behind Zhang Liyang's twin palms as they struck!

Tonight, Zhang Liyang has no intention of holding back. In order to arrive before the deadline, Zhang Liyang must use his full strength!

Boom!

Click~!

Beneath the deafening roar, the sound of bones cracking echoed!

That middle-aged man died instantly under Zhang Liyang's palms, his breastbone shattered and his life force extinguished.

And at that very moment, following past attack patterns, the young man had arrived behind Zhang Liyang and raised his long spear.

Slap~

Between palms clasped together, the long thorn was held suspended in mid-air.

"Do you enjoy ambushes"

With both hands slowly opened, revealing the cold eyes of Zhang Liyang beneath his palms.

A chill instantly surged from his feet, the young man's fear just beginning to rise was then suppressed by the hand covering his eyes.

Boom~.

With a muffled sound, red and white liquid flew.

"Want to run"

Clutching the long thorn left behind by his deceased master, Zhang Liyang turned and hurled it. The thorn sliced through the air with a piercing shriek.

"Ah~"

Screams echoed from the darkness, and a fleeing figure was pierced through the head by a long spear, falling to the ground beneath the trees.

There you are!

Ignoring the woman who had fallen dead, a sharp shriek pierced Zhang Liyang's ears the moment the dagger flew from his hand.

Two voices almost rose simultaneously, making it almost impossible to notice that in the darkness, an arrow darted forward at incredible speed.

Whoosh!

The Dihuang Bu unfolded, and Zhang Liyang's figure had vanished from beside the carriage.

When he reappeared, Zhang Liyang had arrived under a large tree in the darkness. He looked up and saw a figure scrambling down from the branches.

"Humph!"

With a cold snort, Zhang Liyang disappeared from his original spot again.

Bang!

With a flash, his palm struck the figure in the chest. Zhang Liyang glanced at the man who coughed up chunks of bloody internal organs, then lightly tapped the tree trunk with his toes. His entire being shot upwards like a soaring peng bird, returning to the carriage's side.

Lifting the car curtain, a figure bound with ropes still glared wide-eyed at Zhang Liyang.

Seeing He Houde doing nothing, Zhang Liyang tidied his clothes and then sat back in the carriage to continue toward the imperial city.

This time, Zhang Liyang swallowed pills as he walked.

This night will certainly not be a good one. Although the first two waves of people couldn't pose a threat to Zhang Liyang, they inevitably consumed his celestial energy.

To face the enemy's obstruction at its peak, Zhang Liyang must keep the celestial energy within his body at its peak state.

Fortunately, before leaving, Feng Zhen gave Zhang Liyang several bottles of elixir. There were some for treating injuries, but most were for replenishing Qi.

Even before his departure, Zhang Liyang had been constantly swallowing Huqi Pills, drawing the heaven and earth energy contained within them into his own Gui Zang Da Yuan.

"Goooood~"

After swallowing the last qi-returning pill, Zhang Liyang threw the bottle in his hand to the ground and then raised his eyes to look ahead.

"So you're starting to take the elixir now" a voice echoed, "I thought you were much more capable. Seems like I've gotten a bargain."lint in their eyes.Although the main purpose of coming here this time is to attract the attention of Feilong City, they are not kind people. After all, it hasn't been long since Feilong City was taken...
