Chapter 1681

Holding the bloody head in his hand, Wu Xie said disdainfully, "This fellow jumped out on his own before we even thought about killing him. Does he really think we are decorations? We can't even sense such an obvious killing intent."

The head in Wu Xie's hand belonged to a guard leader. He was a middle-stage Ninth Layer expert, a genuine expert.

However, before Wu Xie, he could not even block a single blow and was beheaded.

Since the other party dared to speak, he was naturally prepared to fight. Unfortunately, it was useless.

When the guards saw this, they felt a chill in their hearts. A few people who knew what was going on subconsciously looked in other directions.

The guard leader who spoke turned his head to look at the other three. The three of them shook their heads in confusion, indicating that they did not know anything.

Clearly, the guard leader who died allowed the Soul Devouring Race to enter the city.

Looking at the group of guards in front of him, Zi Chen said blandly, "Get out of the way. The best ending for you is to die on the battlefield against the non-humankind, not in some meaningless infighting."

The group of guards hesitated. The guard leader from before gave Zi Chen a deep look and waved his hand, saying, "Disperse."

The group of guards opened up a path, and Zi Chen walked forward.

As for the other Ninth Layer guards who intentionally let the Soul Devouring Race in, Zi Chen could not be bothered with them.

The group returned to Schenker's store. Old Man Schenker welcomed Zi Chen with a smile. "Good lad. Today is really a good day for you."

Zi Chen smiled faintly and said, "This is just the prelude. The real show has yet to begin."

As they spoke, everyone opened their spatial pouches and poured out their items.

In the blink of an eye, the small room was filled with all kinds of colorful materials.

However, there were still many things in the spatial pouches.

Schenker laughed and waved his sleeves. The materials in the entire room disappeared in an instant.

Next, the dumping continued. This repeated several times until all the loot was emptied.

"This is just the interest, not the share."

After saying that, Zi Chen led the group out of Schenker's Little Store and headed for the second Imperial Sky City.

The weakest ones there were at least Level Eight, and the Level Nine Protectors were not as weak as here. What followed next would be a great battle.

…

…

"Damn it, this guy must be crazy. He dares to attack the five great clans with just the twelve of them? Lunatics, a bunch of lunatics."

This middle-aged man was from the Bi Clan, and was precisely the one who was thrown out of Schenker's Little Store by Man Shi.

He happened to see Zi Chen's crazy behavior, but fortunately, he didn't stupidly stop them. Instead, he quickly returned to the city to report.

At the city gate, nine guards recognized the middle-aged man from the Bi family. They greeted him familiarly, but the latter was in a bad mood. He ignored them and entered the city directly.

Elder Zong was not in the city. Only a steward from the Bi Family was in charge.

"Uncle, something bad has happened." The middle-aged man came in from outside, looking very flustered.

"Why are you so flustered?" The steward of the Bi Family frowned, dissatisfaction written all over his face.

"Uncle, that Zi Chen said he won't trade with us anymore. He even looted our Bi Family's property."

"What? Looted property? Where did you hear that?" The steward of the Bi Family stood up abruptly.

"I saw it with my own eyes. How can it be fake? Uncle, quickly call for help. I suspect that Zi Chen will soon bring people to loot our place." The middle-aged man appeared very anxious.

"Tell me what happened first," the steward of the Bi Family said.

Then, the middle-aged man explained in detail what happened. After the steward of the Bi Family heard it, he couldn't help but sneer.

"They are merely twelve Level Eight Immortals. How dare they not put our Bi Family in their eyes? Even Xu Hou, an expert on the ranking list, wouldn't dare to be disrespectful to us."

The middle-aged man said with a sullen face, "Uncle, he isn't just being disrespectful to our Bi Family. He is being disrespectful to all the clans. I can feel that Zi Chen really wants to make a big fuss this time. He is coming for our alliance."

The steward of the Bi Family said coldly, "So what? At most, he is just another Xu Hou. Could it be that he thinks of himself as another Long Fei?"

Zi Chen wasn't Long Fei. He had never thought of himself as Long Fei.

That was because Long Fei, who was famous back then, didn't have eleven capable experts following him.

"As an expert on the ranking list, Zi Chen's combat strength isn't weak. Why don't we let Xu Hou deal with Zi Chen? Let them fight each other. I think Zi Chen will definitely die." The middle-aged man's eyes lit up as he suddenly said.

"Xu Hou has already left. I heard that he went to negotiate with the Soul-devouring Clan. He won't be back for now," the steward of the Bi Family said angrily.

"Then what should we do?"

"Even without Xu Hou, there are still others. I don't believe that a mere Zi Chen can ignore the rules."

…

…

Zi Chen and his group of twelve people went directly to the second city. They were stopped at the foot of the city.

It was the guards of the city. All of them were at the ninth level. They lined up in a row and blocked their way.

Behind the army was a group of eighth level cultivators. At this moment, they all stuck their heads out and looked ahead curiously.

In addition to some curious people, there were also people from the five major clans behind. They hid in the curious crowd and glanced coldly at Zi Chen and his group.

"Halt your steps."

A loud shout came from the front. A mid-ninth level expert walked out of the group.

Zi Chen and his group naturally wouldn't stop. Instead, they went straight ahead. The distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

"He's Zi Chen, the one who pushed Xu Hou's position down."

"Zi Chen, an expert on the ranking list. It's said that he was outside when he entered the ranking list, just like Lord Long Fei."

"Could it be that these guards are here to prevent Zi Chen from entering the city?"

There were many discussions in the crowd.

"Take another step forward and you'll be killed without mercy."

The guard shouted again. His expression was cold and his words were full of killing intent.

Zi Chen halted his steps. He turned his gaze to the guard and asked, "What did you say earlier?"

"I said, take another step forward and you'll be killed without mercy." The mid-ninth level guard coldly spoke.

"This is a human city."

"Naturally."

"But I'm a human."

"Naturally."

Zi Chen coldly spoke. "Since this is a human city and I'm also a human, why are you bringing people here to block my way? Are you tired of living?"

That guard wasn't afraid at all. He calmly replied, "Zi Chen, you should be very clear about what you have done in the Royal Sky City. You have broken the rules. Before the punishment is determined, I have the authority to stop you from entering."

Zi Chen stared at the guard. "Who wants to determine my punishment? You?"

"Naturally, it's the strongest alliance in our Royal Sky Region, the Royal Sky Alliance."

"That filthy alliance, what qualifications do they have to control me?"

After that, Zi Chen coldly spoke. "Next, I'm going to enter the city. Whoever dares to obstruct me will be considered a foreign race in my eyes. I've never been courteous to foreign races."

As the sound of his voice faded, Zi Chen stepped forward.

Behind Zi Chen, Man Shi and the others followed.

The distance between both parties was less than a hundred meters and the distance was getting shorter and shorter.

The guard raised his weapon and coldly spoke, "Everyone, there's someone who forcefully entered the city and even slandered us. What do you all think we should do?"

"KILL!"

Thunderous battle cries rang out.

The distance between both parties was less than fifty meters. The eyes of the guard in the lead flashed with a cold light. Wielding a long spear, he rushed towards Zi Chen.

Spear light flashed as his killing intent enveloped Zi Chen.

Zi Chen had no expression on his face, he didn't slow down his steps.

With the first step, the sound of thunder could be heard from his flowing blood. With the second step, lightning flashed as eight Xing Chen appeared.

With the third step, Zi Chen clenched his fists as terrifying energy gushed forth.

"BOOM!"

With the fourth step, Zi Chen punched out. The fist light with violent energy whizzed forward with the momentum of breaking through the air.

The fist light hit the spear light. The terrifying energy shock wave caused the guard to fly backward with his spear. While flying backward, many cracks appeared on the spear in the guard's hand. Then, the spear directly exploded.

A ninth-grade weapon was shattered by Zi Chen's punch just like that.

The guard's face was filled with horror as his eyes were filled with disbelief. He was a ninth-grade Xing Chen, but his weapon was shattered by Zi Chen in one move.

The guard who stood out today was either a member of the five major families or had received a lot of benefits. Zi Chen hated this kind of people the most. A murderous intent flashed in his eyes as he punched out again.

"BOOM!"

This punch hit the guard's chest and instantly broke through his defense. The powerful energy entered his body and directly extinguished his vitality.

Two punches to kill a mid-stage ninth-grade Xing Chen. Such combat strength made everyone's expression change.

The other guards didn't stop because of the death of their companion. Their murderous intent surged.

"Kill!"

With a loud shout, Man Shi and the others rushed forward. They weren't as merciful as Zi Chen, who used killing moves immediately.

After transforming, Man Shi kicked a person away. The moment the person's body flew backward, Man Shi lifted his foot and stomped hard.

The sound of bones breaking came from the ground.

Man Shi strode forward, and a mangled corpse appeared on the ground.

"Die."

The vertical eye between Wu Xie's eyebrows opened. A ray of destructive light rushed out and shot directly at a ninth-grade guard.

The guard blocked with his weapon, but his weapon was instantly pierced. Then, the ray of death pierced through the guard's forehead.

It was a complete instant kill.

For example, Shuntian and the others also displayed powerful and terrifying strength. They didn't hold back at all and used killing moves as soon as they attacked.

More than a hundred ninth-grade guards attacked twelve eighth-grade guards. But in an instant, they were beaten to a pulp. There were many casualties.

In the distance, a group of cultivators who were watching the show were shocked when they saw this scene.

Those who said that Zi Chen was just lucky were so shocked at this moment that they couldn't say a word.

Zi Chen's group of twelve reached the city in the blink of an eye. More than a hundred ninth-grade guards, and more than thirty of them died.

"Kill these damned bastards."

"Those who colluded with the foreign races can't be left alive."

"This city is sacred. How can we let you bastards who colluded with the foreign races barge in?"

The ninth-grade guards behind them shouted, their killing intent didn't diminish.

Zi Chen who was about to enter the city stopped when he heard this. He slowly turned and looked at those who were still alive. The reason why they were alive wasn't because they were strong, but because Zi Chen couldn't bear to kill too many people.

In this place, the death of every human expert was a loss to the Royal Sky Region.
