Qingli County

Half-Saint Yuanlong looked far away in the direction of the Grasslands from the corner of his eye. Zhao Shengyu's threat did not bother him at all.

Without sufficient evidence, the ministry could not do anything with him.

But he needed to find out Zhang Ruochen had snuck in.

Boom!

Outside the city, there was a massive explosion, and the ground shuddered beneath it.

Right before the explosion, Zhao Shengyu aimed a crescent shaped saint weapon thrust towards Zhang Ruochen, but it was parried by the Abyss Ancient Sword. Zhang Ruochen performed Sword Two and casted a shield to defend himself against the incoming object coming from afar.

The clouds above moved away to show a clear blue sky.

"That was incredible."

Zhang Ruochen was thrown a few miles further. He felt an incredible pain, as if all of his organs were detached from his body.
