Chapter 428 – See you when the connection is made

When An Zheng and Chen Shaobai entered the city, it was already late into the night, but the city was still brightly lit. On the main street, soldiers patrolling back and forth with torches could be seen. When An Zheng and Chen Shaobai, who were both holding a yaksha umbrella, looked down from the city walls, their hearts tensed up.

Even if Fengyu City was an important town in the north of State of Zhao, there was no need for them to be this nervous.

Chen Shaobai chuckled: “Guess if we’ll run into some good luck?”

An Zheng nodded his head: “From the looks of it, if not for King Zhao suddenly arriving at Fengyu City, it would not be worth it. Looks like King Zhao really has some intentions towards State of Yan this time, otherwise they would not have personally come so close to the border. ”

Chen Shaobai: “So you had something to do tonight, and you helped your little brother who was acting as Swallow King to resolve the problem. There’s no better way than directly getting rid of the King Zhao.”

An Zheng shook his head: “King Zhao cannot be killed.”

Chen Shaobai was slightly startled: “Why can’t I kill him? After killing the King Zhao, how could the group of dragons in the State of Zhao still attack the State of Yan? To kill one person and save two countries, this transaction is worth it. ”

An Zheng said: “I’ll go down first to take a look at the situation.

Chen Shaobai casually gave the yaksha mother umbrella to An Zheng: “Do you think I like to play with you?”

An Zheng caught it and directly jumped off the twenty to thirty meters tall city wall.

Chen Shaobai: “Be careful … “My umbrella.”

An Zheng got down from the city wall, not daring to move too quickly. If his guess was right, then the King Zhao had already gone from Ye City to Fengyu City, then there must be plenty of experts in Fengyu City right now. Amongst the sixteen kingdoms, the number of cultivators and sects were the most in the State of Zhao.

Although there was not a single sect that was able to intimidate all of them, the imperial government of the State of Zhao attached great importance to their relationship with cultivators. That was why the cultivators of the State of Zhao were always very active in summoning the imperial government of the State of Zhao. The King Zhao had always been generous to cultivators, otherwise, his sons would have already been beaten to death.

Withouowerful sect, the martial arts world of the State of Zhao was exceptionally chaotic. A few first-rate sects were unconvinced by each other, and everyone wanted to become the closest martial arts force in the King Zhao, so they couldn’t help but fight. However, this was exactly what the King Zhao liked to see happen. Firstly, these sects wanted to fight for the favor of the imperial government, and secondly, these sects wanted them to control each other.

On the contrary, it was a form of stability, all the different martial world powers wanted to show off in front of the King Zhao, so they fought to show off.

An Zheng walked along the main street, towards the place with the densest lights. The streets were filled with Zhao Jun’s elites. When the soldiers in iron armor walked on the streets, they would carry a cold killing intent.

These soldiers were very different. Everyone seemed to have no emotions that belonged to them. On patrol in such a cold night, their faces were expressionless, and no complaints could be seen.

The closer they got to the area with the densest lights, the tighter their defenses became. An Zheng noticed that there were many cultivators guarding every intersection, and the cultivators at every intersection did not belong to the same sect.

An Zheng suddenly understood that the King Zhao was definitely a king who truly knew how to control various forces. Such a simple and seemingly childish method could actually cause these sects to fight for it.

The King Zhao must have madromise before. The more powerful and loyal the sect was, the closer they would be to the inner sect. On the surface, it seemed boring, but it was also childish. However, it was effective because the martial arts sects would compete with them!

My sect is the closest place to the King Zhao, where is your sect?

An Zheng couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. With Xiao Qi Dao’s current ability, he indeed had no way to contend against him.

Thus, when An Zheng looked at the place where the lights were the densest and only 200 meters away, he changed his mind. He kept the Yaksha mother umbrella and revealed himself to the people on the street.

In the blink of an eye, the cultivators at the intersection not far away cried out in alarm.

“Who is it!”

“Where did this junior come from? He actually dares to go near a forbidden zone!”

“Who are you?!”

At least four or five cultivators discovered An Zheng at the same time, and then, they issued their warning simultaneously. After a while, at least seventeen or eighteen cultivators appeared around him, surrounding him in an instant. From a distance away, a large group of soldiers began to gather. In the distant courtyard, a warning horn sounded.

An Zheng only stood there quietly, looking at his surroundings without any fear. The cultivators of the State of Zhao were facing a great enemy. In a few minutes, there were no less than two hundred people gathered, and the number of warriors was even more astonishing. Within a few minutes, they had sealed off several nearby streets.

From the looks of their clothing, there were at least six or seven cultivators that quickly walked out of the courtyard. From the looks of it, the oldest was around sixty years old while the youngest was around forty to fifty years old.

“Who the hell are you?”

The one walking right in front was an old man who appeared to be around sixty years old. However, he was tall and sturdy. From the looks of it, he was a very impatient person.

“I am An Zheng.”

An Zheng’s answer was simple and straightforward: “State of Yan’s An Zheng.”

The old man’s expression clearly changed a bit, because the name An Zheng was definitely not unfamiliar to the State of Yan’s immediate neighbors. Moreover,, the empress dowager of State of Yan, had died in An Zheng’s hands.

“You lunatic!”

The old man was furious, “You are my enemy, you actually dared to appear here! Speak, are you planning something against my King? ”

An Zheng shook his head: “Even if you speak so loudly, you still do not have any imposing manner, and the reason why you are walking in the front is not because your cultivation level is the highest, but because you want to show off. “So, even among all the people that came with you, you are still the lowest. Why do I need to talk to you about something? Your level is not high enough.”

The old man raged: “I’ll cripple you first, then catch you in front of King Zhao!”

He rushed forward and raised his hand to grab at An Zheng’s throat.

But there was clearly a hesitation in his movements, because he was waiting for someone to stop him. But unfortunately, who was not an old fox to be the master of a sect? He thought someone would try to stop him, but everyone was watching. Since he was willing to be the first to probe out An Zheng’s strength, how could the remaining people stop him?

Thus, at this moment, the old man felt a bit of regret.

A disdainful smile hung on An Zheng’s lips: “If you want to attack, you don’t dare; if you want to show off, you lack the confidence; foerson like you, no matter how old you are, there’s no better way out.”

The old man had been forced into a corner, leaving him no choice but to take action.

“I’ll kill you to avenge my State of Zhao Princess!”

A strong force surged out from the old man’s palm. He had heard too many rumors regarding An Zheng, so he went all out the moment he attacked, not daring to let his guard down.

An Zheng stood there quietly, not even moving. The moment the old man attacked, he could immediately sense the other party’s strength from the Cultivation Power that was pouncing towards him, so he did not put this person in his eyes at all. From the Cultivation Power, this old man was probably around the second stage of the Lower Completion Stage.

However, under the same realm, there was no need for An Zheng to care about it.

the Cultivation Power that looked like it could tear rocks apart directly struck An Zheng’s body, but he did not even move.

“I’m here to see the King Zhao, I don’t want to fight.”

An Zheng said indifferently.

That old man said angrily: “You’re still saying that you are not scheming, how do you know that King Zhao is here!”

Unexpectedly, with just one move, An Zheng was completely unharmed, and even had not moved an inch, how could he not be enraged in his heart? Thus, when he asked the question, he no longer had much confidence.

An Zheng looked at him, “Idiot.”

The old man stared blankly for a moment before suddenly understanding and immediately becoming angry from embarrassment. He knew that he might not be An Zheng’s match, but he had no choice but to continue fighting. Being humiliated by An Zheng in front of so many people, if he were to tolerate it, then he would not stay in the martial arts world anymore.

However, when he lifted his hand a second time and didn’t have time to use his most proficient martial skill, he suddenly felt something tighten around his neck.

To his horror, he discovered that An Zheng was standing just half a meter away from him and his left hand was grabbing onto’s neck. But he didn’t react at all. If An Zheng was willing, he would already be dead.

In front of everyone’s terrified eyes, An Zheng lifted the old man up with one hand. He clutched at the old man’s neck. The old man’s blood could not circulate. He looked weak, and his body drooped like a large ball of noodles.

An Zheng looked at the person in front of him and said: “I’ll say it again, I am here to see King Zhao and not to kill. If you think seeing the King Zhao is not enough, I will take a step back and kill you guys. ”

He casually flung the old man, sending him flying two hundred meters away. The old man was unable to recover his strength even after flying two hundred meters over the road. In that instant, his vital energy and blood was completely sealed by An Zheng’s Cultivation Power;

With a bang, the old man’s body slammed into the far away wall, directly entering it.

“Such a weak and foolish person is not qualified to stand in front of me.”

An Zheng looked at the few cultivators whose positions were obviously not weak and said, “Who do you think has the qualifications to talk to me? If you are unable to, I will have to trouble you all to report to King Zhao, that the first-rate protector of the great swallow, An Zheng, requests to see you. ”

He pointed to the place far away where the lights were brightly lit, “If none of you are willing to report to me, then I’ll go by myself.”

After saying that, An Zheng took a step forward.

“How dare you!”

“Arrogant!”

Both of them shouted at the same time.

One of them was a middle-aged man who looked to be around forty years old, who was standing right in front of An Zheng. In his hand was a folding fan. He was wearing a royal blue robe, which gave him a more reserved demeanor than the old man from before.

The other one was an old man who was flying over from afar. This old man was somewhat special because he waunuch. The uniform on his body proclaimed his identity, and his face that was filled with a feminine air made people feel even more disgusted.

“How can the Land of Great Zhao allow others to be so impudent?!”

The old man landed in front of everyone, glaring at An Zheng: “Even if you are the Duke Protector of the State of Yan, you are still an outsider to this place. If you follow the rules, you will be a distant guest. If you don’t follow the rules, you’re an enemy. Don’t be so arrogant, no matter how much you command the wind and rain in State of Yan, there is no need for the State of Zhao to give you so much face. ”

An Zheng said: “You are being stubborn, but you do not have the qualifications.”

The old eunuch’s face was already very pale, but now it was even paler.

He cupped his hands together and said, “The King’s will is clear. Since you came all the way from An Kingdom, of course you have to meet him. However, I, Zhao, am a nation of etiquette. Of course, I want to welcome the original guests. You two split up to see if the Duke of An was brave enough to walk through like this. If you dare, the King will be waiting for you in front. ”

He waved his hand, and the cultivators immediately parted to look at An Zheng.

Both sides were filled with cultivators and their attitudes were clear. If they wanted to meet the King Zhao, they would have to fight their way through this road!

An Zheng slowly let out a breath of relief before he strode forward.

The path was still a few hundred meters long, and there were dozens of Sect Leader level cultivators standing on both sides!

“The road is a little short.”

An Zheng said as he walked, “Let me think that there is no one in State of Zhao.”

In that instant, everyone’s faces turned white, they all wanted to tear An Zheng’s hand apart.
