Chapter 255: Reforging the Artifact
The two vice-leaders of the Jiangzhou Alliance stepped forward to stop him: "Wait a minute, don't hurt the relationship, we can talk it out!"
They were originally the leaders of the two major sects in Jiangzhou. After the turmoil in Jiangzhou, they were invited to join the Jiangzhou Alliance to assist in governance. How could they be as tough as Yuan Qingchao?
When he heard that Guan Shiyao was the governor of Jiangzhou appointed by the king himself, he had already begun to feel fear in his heart, and it took a lot of courage for him to step forward to mediate.
Guan Shiyao observed the two men's expressions and saw that they were not confident enough. He immediately became arrogant and shouted, "Catch these people together!"...
Behind him, two cultivators in the Void Realm rushed over, intending to capture the chief and deputy chief leaders of the Jiangzhou Alliance.
The two deputy leaders hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether they should resist, and they all shrank back.
Yuan Qingchao roared suddenly, and a bone spear suddenly appeared in his hand, sweeping towards the four approaching Void Practitioners.
The four of them retreated slightly, avoiding the bone halberd, and turned to look at Guan Shiyao.
Guan Shiyao's eyes flashed with ferocity, and he shouted, "If you dare to attack a royal official, I will kill you without mercy!"
Suddenly, several Void Practitioners beside Guan Shiyao drew their weapons, and a battle was about to break out.
The two deputy leaders of the Jiangzhou Alliance turned pale instantly. How dare they resist the governor who was personally appointed by the royal family?
At this moment, four mysterious and powerful void pressures suddenly rose up in the governor's mansion and rushed towards this place.
Those were the four reclusive masters Qingpao, Bai Xiao, Gao Xuan and Zhu Hong left behind by Xia Zhongnan. They usually practiced in the dark and silently protected Jiangcheng.
The intrusion of Guan Shiyao and seven others had already alarmed the four strange beasts, but they did not take any action and waited for Yuan Qingchao to respond.
The moment the swords of both sides collided, they suddenly attacked!
Rong Liangchen felt something was wrong. When he left Wudu, Tang Huaigang and Qu Tongtian repeatedly told him to inform Guan Shiyao to visit Xiuzhou Mu Liu Dabazi first. How could he have followed Guan Shiyao here?
He yelled, "Stop, it's a misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding!"
However, would the four beasts pay attention to his cries?
Only a few "bang bang bang" sounds were heard, and the four Void Practitioners who drew their swords and attacked all let out dying screams. They were beaten to death by the four beasts and their heads and bodies were separated. They died tragically on the spot.
Although it is four against four, how can they resist the power of the four beasts joining forces?
In a moment, they were all defeated.
After clearing out the four armed Void Practitioners, Qingpao, Bai Xiao and the others stared at the remaining three with sharp eyes.
At this moment, Guan Shiyao was also stunned.
He never expected that there was such a master hidden in the governor's mansion.
Only at this moment did he remember that age is always more valuable, and Qu Tongtian and Tang Huaigang's wisdom far surpassed his own.
Guan Shiyao trembled and said, "I am the governor of Jiangzhou appointed by the king himself. You can't touch me..."
The man in green robe taunted, "Jiangzhou Mu, Xia Zhongnan has already given instructions. If you dare to take action in Jiangzhou, even if Wu Longhai comes in person, he will not be able to escape unscathed, let alone you."
Then, the four beasts attacked again, and Guan Shiyao shouted: "I was appointed by the king himself..."
Before he could finish his words, Bai Xiao hit him with a hammer and flew him out of the governor's mansion. He fell on the street and rolled more than ten meters before becoming motionless.
In the house across the street, Guan Shiyao's men were all trembling.
They originally thought they were waiting for Guan Shiyao's signal and rushed into the governor's mansion to take over the Jiangzhou Alliance, but they did not expect to witness such a scene.
Afterwards, a big man walked out of the governor's mansion, approached Guan Shiyao's body and kicked it twice. Seeing no response, he dragged him into the governor's mansion like a dead dog.
Under the horrified gaze of Guan Shiyao's followers, they trembled and fled from Jiangzhou City, rushing towards Wudu, intending to convey the news of this shocking change.
After looting the relics of the battlefield, the four strange beasts bowed to Yuan Qingchao and said, "Alliance Master Yuan, we four beasts will continue to practice with all our heart. If needed, summon us again!"
Yuan Qingchao also responded politely: "Thanks to the four beast friends for their help, I am very grateful!"
After the four beasts left, the two deputy leaders approached anxiously: "Leader!..."
The scene just now was too shocking, making them think a lot and they didn’t know how to start for a moment.
Yuan Qingchao comforted him, "Don't worry, just help me govern Jiangzhou properly, and others will come forward to solve the rest!"
One of the deputy leaders was still worried: "Guan Shiyao was appointed by the king himself as the governor of Jiangzhou. How should we deal with the king's wrath if he dies like this?"
Yuan Qingchao said firmly: "The case of governors in Jiangzhou being killed on the streets is not just Guan Shiyao. Just get used to it and don't worry about it! Think about how powerful the Maitreya Sect was in Jiangzhou back then, but it was wiped out overnight. Even if Guan Shiyao has the support of the King of Wu and the court, can the power behind the Maitreya Sect be inferior to that of the court?"
When Xia Zhongnan learned of Guan Shiyao's demise in Jiangzhou Mu's Mansion, he simply nodded indifferently to indicate that he knew, and then asked him to continue to pay attention to the development of the situation.
There are four strange beasts guarding Jiangzhou, and ordinary cultivators going there will only cause more casualties.
At this moment, his state of mind has changed. He no longer tries to survive cautiously, but begins to pursue a broader world.
Every once in a while, his power would expand at a rapid pace, and both his personal combat power and the strength of his subordinates would increase rapidly.
In order to meet the needs of many high-level monks, he had to expand his territory.
Next, he must seize a sacred place containing the Yuanmai.
Of course, the primary target is the nearby Mile City, but if the royal family of Wu State is determined to die, he will not refuse to take action in Wu City.
Having just dealt with the important matters after returning from the Saha world, Xia Zhongnan brought Xu Qian to the governor's mansion to visit Liu Dabazi.
When Liu Dabazi saw the two of them coming, he was surprised and asked, "Xiao Fei, why are you here in my governor's mansion? If you have anything to say, just tell me. I can go to Tianxian Palace to find you!"
Although he was still called "Xiao Fei", the courtesy was not false.
Xia Zhongnan’s strength is now enough to face the strong ones in the Hedao realm. No matter what his relationship with Liu Dabazi was in the past, he should not lack due respect for the strong. This is the eternal law of the world of cultivation.
Xia Zhongnan said, "Brother Liu, I want to take you to a secret place on earth to see it. Are you free?"
Liu Dabazi's eyes lit up: "Great! Now everything is on track, and there is nothing else to do except practice. It just so happens that I can go out for a walk with you!"
Xia Zhongnan replied: "Then let's go!"
Liu Dabazi instructed the people beside him: "Tell Zhao Shuai that Xiaofei and I are going out for a while, and the things here are left to you." Then he went out with Xia Zhongnan.
The three of them rode the magic cloud, soaring toward the northeast, passing over the dreamy Lanxiu City, and then landed at the foot of Zilei Peak.
This time, they still chose to walk along the foothills and climb the majestic mountains.
