EBE Chapter 454 Entering the City
Chapter 454 Entering the City
Although the Zhao family was only a small mountain stronghold, their overall strength was still much greater than that of the Xue family.
Now, the Zhao family patriarch has actually brought so many elite troops with him!
"Strange, how did they find this place?" Xue Hu asked, frowning.
They left just in time, and Blood Valley is now protected by a barrier.
"These are the traces I left behind."
At this moment, Gu Jiancheng smiled faintly.
"Is Young Master going to wipe them all out in one fell swoop?!" Xue Qiangwei gasped, then exclaimed in surprise.
This was clearly all within Gu Jiancheng's expectations.
"Well, I can't protect you all the time, so the Zhao family will wipe them all out first."
Gu Jiancheng nodded, and then stepped directly into the air and descended.
At this moment, the cultivators from the Zhao family also noticed Gu Jiancheng's presence.
The Zhao family patriarch sneered and pointed at Gu Jiancheng, saying, "But it was you who killed my son!?"
"Yes."
Gu Jiancheng nodded, indicating there was no need to deny it.
"Heh, you mere immortal, how dare you!"
"I demand you pay for my son's life!"
"Everyone, kill him, then raze this Valley of Blood to the ground!"
The Zhao family patriarch roared, and all the Zhao family cultivators rushed forward. In an instant, immortal light swirled around them, and all sorts of supernatural powers came crashing down on them!
"Heh heh, you ants!"
At this moment, Gu Jiancheng had no patience left. He waved his hand, and in an instant, countless sword lights burst forth from his body!
Ten thousand sword lights raged forth, sweeping out like a tidal wave!
It is imbued with profound spiritual power, and wherever it goes, all supernatural abilities are shattered to pieces.
Those Zhao family cultivators were all shattered under the sword light.
"What!?"
At this moment, the Zhao family patriarch was even more terrified, never expecting that Gu Jiancheng's supernatural power would be so fierce!
Immediately, he swung his battle axe, which was now engulfed in flames, and used all his strength to strike with the axe, attempting to block the wave of swords!
boom!
But after a loud bang, it was directly slashed away.
The battle axe shattered, and the man collapsed into the dust and smoke.
Although he wasn't killed in one move by Gu Jiancheng, he was still seriously injured!
Before he could stand up again, Gu Jiancheng had already descended, and with a single punch, a dragon's roar pierced the air, blasting the entire area where he was located to the ground!
When the Xue siblings came to their senses, they found that the Zhao family patriarch's aura had completely disappeared, and a huge pit a hundred feet deep had appeared on the ground outside Blood Valley.
The Zhao family patriarch, who possessed the cultivation of an Earth Immortal, didn't even leave behind a complete corpse!
In just a few breaths, all the cultivators of the Zhao family were killed by Gu Jiancheng!
The two looked at Gu Jiancheng, their hearts filled with horror.
Fortunately, this god of death was on their side; otherwise, the Xue family would probably have ceased to exist long ago.
"Let's go."
Gu Jiancheng merely glanced at the deep pit before looking away.
"Brother Gu, can I come along?" Xue Hu asked expectantly.
He had never been to Lin Yuan City before, and he was curious about it.
However, if the siblings leave together, there will be no one to take charge of Blood Valley.
"Hehe, you can go ahead, I'll take care of things at home!" At this moment, the Xue family patriarch flew out of the valley and stood inside the barrier, laughing.
He is now able to get up. Although his cultivation has not yet recovered, his prestige remains.
"In that case, you may come along!"
Seeing this, Gu Jiancheng agreed.
After all, it's not good to have Xue Qiangwei around.
"Haha, that's great!"
Xue Hu was overjoyed.
Immediately, Gu Jiancheng swept the two of them up and disappeared into the void.
Along the way, Gu Jiancheng carried the siblings on their swords. Although they didn't have any magical beasts to ride with, the speed of the swords was extremely fast.
Just two days later, they saw an ancient city rising on the horizon.
We've arrived at Lin Yuan City!
There are hundreds of mountain strongholds of varying sizes surrounding Lin Yuan City, all under the jurisdiction of the Lei Ming Sect.
The Thunder Sect is already the second most powerful of the four major forces, and it even has a quasi-Golden Immortal cultivator in charge. Therefore, Lin Yuan City is large in scale and quite prosperous inside.
Gu Jiancheng dispersed his sword light beforehand and flew into the city with the two of them.
The city of Lin Yuan is now teeming with cultivators, and its streets are bustling with activity.
Xue Hu had never seen such an ancient city before; his eyes lit up, and he wished he could run wildly through it.
"Young Master Gu, let's find a place to settle down first, and then look for materials to set up the formation!"
At this moment, Xue Qiangwei said.
"can."
Gu Jiancheng nodded.
The three of them quickly found a small inn not far from the city gate and reserved three rooms with three immortal crystals.
"Brother, stay at the inn and don't leave. Wait for us to come back."
At this moment, Xue Qiangwei said.
"Fine!" Xue Hu pursed his lips, agreeing despite his reluctance.
Xue Qiangwei knew that her younger brother couldn't control her, but taking him along was really troublesome.
Afterwards, the two left the inn, and soon after, Xue Qiangwei led Gu Jiancheng to a pavilion called Baixiang Trading Company.
"Young Master Xue, this is one of the larger trading companies in Lin Yuan City. It's a real estate company belonging to Baihua Fenxiang Valley," Xue Qiangwei said with a smile.
"The Hundred Flowers Valley's businesses? Located in Lin Yuan City?" Gu Jiancheng raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
"That's right. Although Hundred Flowers Valley is one of the four major powers, its main focus is on refining pills and commerce. It has good relations with other powers, so they have businesses in the cities of Ten Thousand Demon Thunder Valley."
"Besides, I have a pretty good relationship with one of the managers here," Xue Qiangwei explained with a smile.
"I see, that works!"
Gu Jiancheng nodded, his divine sense enveloping the trading company. Under his divine vision, he discovered that there was only one late-stage Earth Immortal expert in charge.
"Rose? What brings you here?"
As soon as the two entered, an older female cultivator exclaimed in surprise.
"Hehe, hello Sister Ruohong. I just happened to have some free time, so I came here to take a look. This is my friend, Young Master Gu Jiancheng!"
Xue Qiangwei introduced with a smile.
"Greetings, Young Master Gu!"
Na Ruohong glanced at Gu Jiancheng and was immediately struck by his otherworldly aura, but she quickly realized that Gu Jiancheng's cultivation level was not high, so she didn't look at him any longer.
"Hello," Gu Jiancheng replied casually, his gaze sweeping across the entire trading company.
Sure enough, most of the goods here were elixirs, and the quality of the elixirs was quite good.
"Sister Ruohong, we came here to buy some materials for setting up magic arrays. Do you have any recommendations?" Xue Qiangwei knew that Gu Jiancheng disliked small talk, so she quickly asked.
"Formation materials?"
"What do you want these things for?" Ruohong frowned.
She knew that Xue Qiangwei was not wealthy and did not need materials for setting up formations, since she was not a formation master.
"Ahem, it's for me."
"Do you have any of higher quality?" Gu Jiancheng asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Taller, how tall is considered tall?" Na Ruohong asked subconsciously.
"Above the Earth Immortal level!" Gu Jiancheng replied.
"Above the Earth Immortal level?" Upon hearing this, Ruohong couldn't help but gasp.
Those are top-tier array-setting materials! What would this Immortal cultivator need such high-quality materials for?!
