Chapter 198

"Kid, you'd better admit defeat obediently; the powerhouses of the Capital City are not something Qingzhou can compare to."

Seeing that Lu Zhangsheng still had the courage to come and fight, Yao Bin's eyes were full of contempt.

In his view, Qingzhou was just a barren state; even if there were a few Godly Sons, they were just mediocre people, so he naturally didn't take them seriously.

"Just by you? You're still quite far off."

Lu Zhangsheng's expression was as calm as water.

A gentle breeze brushed past his white robe, and his whole person radiated an extremely free and easy aura.

"How bold! Die for this Lord!"

An explosive shout resounded through the clouds.

A fierce glint bloomed in Yao Bin's eyes.

He made his move immediately, fully activating his Destruction Godly Heart, and his own aura climbed step by step.

"Roar roar roar..."

Above his head in the void, five ancient flying dragons were circling and roaring, with astonishing power.

A powerful pressure, like a mountain pressing down, permeated the entire scene.

Making the people watching the battle around tighten their expressions, feeling a sense of difficulty in breathing.

"Not good, this person was still hiding his strength just now."

"What terrifying power, he actually has the power of five dragons, plus the Destruction Godly Heart, enough to suppress most late-stage Grandmaster powerhouses..."

A group of people looked at Yao Bin with horror.

Everyone didn't expect that after fighting two battles in a row, this person had no consumption at all.

"Lu Zhangsheng is likely in danger."

The people on Qin Zhaoyang's side all revealed nervous expressions.

Qin Ruobing tightly pinched her dress with both hands, praying silently in her heart.

"Husband will definitely win this battle."

She didn't forget to comfort her mother, An Youyun, and Qin Ruoshui, who were beside her.

Even Qin Zhaoyang was no longer as calm as usual, and his face was somewhat uneasy.

This battle was too critical for him; the consequences of losing were simply unbearable.

"Lord Yao, well done."

The personnel on Qin Kaishan's side saw this and cheered one after another, with a thunderous momentum.

It was as if the other party had already secured victory.

However, this level of strength was enough to easily suppress Lu Zhangsheng.

They all stared fixedly at the center of the lake, afraid of missing the next scene.

"Your Highness, Lu Zhangsheng is likely no match for this person."

Princess Consort Qi smiled, her eyes full of confidence.

Her judgment rarely had errors.

Even Qin Gaoyang was somewhat indecisive.

This Yao Bin could be called a young hero; it would not be easy to defeat him.

Facing such astonishing pressure, Lu Zhangsheng's expression remained calm.

His whole person was like a towering mountain, difficult to be shaken in the slightest.

"Hmph... putting on an act."

As he spoke, Yao Bin slashed his blade forward violently.

"Boom boom..."

A brilliant blade light descended from the sky instantly, like a galaxy spanning the void, with fierce and unparalleled power.

Even the lake surface under his feet was directly split open by this blade, and sonic booms came from the air.

With this blade, he had already used his full strength, and the exotic treasure in his body was also activated to the limit.

He just wanted to suppress Lu Zhangsheng with one blade.

"Slash."

Lu Zhangsheng was not to be outdone, fully erupting the Gang Qi in his body.

His whole person expanded instantly, turning into several meters tall, like a golden-armored deity, extremely miraculous.

"Roar roar roar..."

Endless blood energy turned into six ancient flying dragons, circling above his head.

A powerful aura suppressed the opponent.

Immediately afterward, he slashed his blade quickly.

"Clatter..."

The sharp blade energy seemed to want to cut through the void in front, making even the scorching sun in the high sky seem somewhat eclipsed.

Under the blessing of several divine abilities, this blade also reached the limit.

The power of six dragons had already touched the threshold of the peak of the Grandmaster stage.

This was still with the divine ability 【Size as Desired】 not yet reaching minor accomplishment.

There was still great room for improvement.

"This... what astonishing power."

Seeing this, the people at the banquet stood up one after another, full of horror.

They found it hard to believe in their hearts.

They didn't expect Lu Zhangsheng to have such strength; having just broken through to the Grandmaster stage not long ago, he was already about to touch the peak of the Grandmaster stage.

Generally speaking, powerhouses at the peak of the Grandmaster stage who had cultivated a Godly Heart had the power of nearly ten dragons.

This power already had the possibility of initially fusing with demon power.

If it were any lower, it would often be extremely dangerous and unable to suppress the tyranny in the demon blood essence at all.

In other words, it wouldn't be long before Lu Zhangsheng could refine blood essence and completely step into the rank of Marquis-level powerhouses.

Becoming one of the top-tier people in the Great Zhou.

Such a young ranked expert made everyone feel quite moved.

"Not good, this person is strange."

Seeing this, Qin Kaishan's eyes tightened.

He also didn't expect that this Godly Son from Qingzhou who suddenly appeared would have such astonishing power.

The situation was not looking good now, and he became quite nervous.

The two Godly Sons he invited were the strongest among the five retainers.

He could only hope that Yao Bin could consume more of the other party's Gang Qi.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Even Qin Gaoyang on the high platform looked astonished.

He turned his head to look at Qin Zhaoyang, a trace of appreciation appearing in his eyes.

Being able to find such a good son-in-law was also the other party's luck.

After all, a son-in-law was much more reliable than a retainer; as a half-family member, he could participate in many major events.

If nothing unexpected happened, even he would have to rely on the other party's strength in the future.

Qin Zhaoyang and Qin Ruobing and the others beside him were already filled with surprise.

They clenched their fists one after another, full of excitement.

"Lord Lu is mighty."

Everyone shouted loudly, with a thunderous momentum.

Just as a group of people were discussing, Lu Zhangsheng's blade light had already slashed over.

Sensing such a terrifying aura, Yao Bin was extremely terrified.

"Not good, this person is extremely insidious."

In his intelligence, the other party's full eruption only had the power of four dragons.

He could easily suppress the other party.

He didn't expect that at this moment, the little lamb would instantly turn into a vicious wolf, making him completely unable to react.

In an instant, the blades of the two collided.

"Boom boom boom..."

The violent roaring sound resounded through the clouds.

The surrounding energy splashed wantonly, stirring up surging lake water, and a powerful hurricane swept in all directions.

Blowing the nearby grass and trees up by the roots.

Under one strike.

Yao Bin suddenly retreated more than ten meters, his face pale, his right hand trembling non-stop.

Those strands of sharp Gang Qi went straight into his body, making him very uncomfortable.

After fighting with the other party with full strength, he was already injured.

Before he could adjust his state, the second blade light slashed over again.

Yao Bin gritted his teeth and could only meet it with full strength.

"Boom boom boom..."

The two fought fiercely in the void, and the roaring sound was endless.

The scattered Gang wind made everyone's cheeks ache, and they avoided it one after another.

As soon as they fought, Lu Zhangsheng occupied the absolute upper hand.

Suppressing Yao Bin to death.

No matter how the other party erupted, it was always difficult to reverse the decline.

As time passed.

Yao Bin's face became increasingly ugly.

Like a lonely boat swaying in a storm, it could capsize at any time.

Thinking of the "harsh words" he issued before the fight, he felt even more ashamed and angry.

Not only that, after his failure, the spirit items Qin Kaishan promised would also go down the drain.

Just at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

"Slash."

Lu Zhangsheng seized a chance and instantly erupted a strand of blood essence in his body.

"Roar roar roar..."

Another flying dragon revealed its phantom in the void, and his entire aura surged again.

"Not good."

Yao Bin's face changed in shock.

At this moment, it was too late to counterattack, so he had to meet it reluctantly.

"Boom boom boom..."

After an astonishing collision, Yao Bin's entire body flew backward rapidly.

He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood in the high sky, and his aura became listless.

Afterward, he rolled to the shore and stopped moving.

With one blade, he was beaten into a dead dog.

Silence, deathly silence.

The scene was instantly speechless.

Everyone widened their eyes, looking at Lu Zhangsheng with horror.

A powerful Godly Son was lying on the ground like this, like a puddle of mud, making people tremble with fear.

"This Lord Lu is so ruthless."

A group of people's eyes were full of awe.

For a powerhouse who was strong and decisive, they only had fear in their hearts.

Qin Kaishan and the others' expressions were very ugly, as if they had eaten a fly. The people of this lineage couldn't speak, and the scene was silent.

"Lord Lu is well done."

In contrast, the many martial artists of Qin Zhaoyang's lineage clapped and cheered one after another, looking excited.

Even Qin Ruobing felt honored.

This was the husband she chose, the person who had been creating "miracles" all along.

Since the two met, she had witnessed Lu Zhangsheng's rapid rise all the way.

At this moment, the other party had already stood at an unimaginable height.

On the high platform, Qin Gaoyang looked at Lu Zhangsheng with appreciation.

Such a young hero, after joining the Prince's Mansion, the benefits to him were also obvious.

"My wife was mistaken this time."

He joked with a smile.

This work was organized and uploaded by 69 Book Bar~~

A strange look flashed across Qi Xiaoyun's eyes, but she didn't speak to refute.

At this moment, Lu Zhangsheng on the lake spoke loudly:

"Who else will come up to fight this Lord?"

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking indifferent.

A head of long hair draped over his shoulders, fluttering in the breeze, paired with a white robe, making his whole person look increasingly compelling.

As he spoke, his gaze scanned the retainers on Qin Kaishan's side, carrying a powerful pressure.

The remaining retainers tightened their expressions one after another, a trace of fear appearing in their eyes.

They were no match and didn't dare to take the field at all.

"What does Mr. Ye think of this person?"

Qin Kaishan cast his gaze toward another Godly Son.

His eyes carried a trace of expectation.

At this moment, he could only place all his expectations on the other party.

Otherwise, he could only end in failure.

"I am no match."

Ye Haichen answered with a solemn face.

His strength was on par with Yao Bin's; he was definitely not the other party's match.

He couldn't take that blade just now.

If he took the field, the one lying on the ground would be himself.

That would ruin his reputation and make him a laughingstock in the Capital City.

At this moment, he was afraid and didn't dare to take the stage to fight at all.

"What a piece of trash."

Qin Kaishan cursed secretly in his heart.

Having taken his benefits, he didn't even have the courage to take the stage to fight, which made him very dissatisfied.

However, it was not good to completely offend this person, so he could only choose to swallow this anger.

"Who else will take the field?"

Seeing no one respond, Lu Zhangsheng shouted loudly again.

The loud voice resounded through the entire garden.

His gaze was as sharp as a knife; wherever it passed, the remaining retainers lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look at him.

The four of them no longer had any courage and admitted defeat directly.

"Haha... there's no need for the following battles, so as not to hurt the harmony..."

Qin Gaoyang hurriedly smoothed things over, his face full of smiles.

He also left some face for the several retainers.

After all, they were all friends of the Prince's Mansion.

"You won, consider yourself lucky to have found such a powerful son-in-law."

Qin Kaishan said to Qin Zhaoyang with indignation.

In a situation that was supposed to be a sure win, he encountered this matter; he was extremely unwilling in his heart.

"You're too kind."

Qin Zhaoyang's joy was hard to hide.

His gaze toward Lu Zhangsheng became increasingly gentle.

All of this was thanks to the other party, otherwise, the one who lost would be him.

Afterward, Lu Zhangsheng returned to Qin Ruobing's side, and the group started the banquet again.

A moment later.

Qin Gaoyang said solemnly: "Today, I am prepared to announce the position of Heir."

"Marquis of Wuyang, Qin Zhaoyang, from today on, becomes the candidate for Heir to the Prince of Yong's Mansion."

After speaking, he looked at Qin Zhaoyang.

Everyone looked at Qin Gaoyang with surprise.

They didn't expect the rumors to be true.

This battle was also related to the position of Heir.

Qin Zhaoyang relied on Lu Zhangsheng to win it directly.

Qin Kaishan's eyes were full of unwillingness.

This position should have been his.

"My child is shallow in learning, I'm afraid I'm not capable of such a heavy responsibility."

Qin Zhaoyang hurriedly stood up and answered with a look of panic.

He didn't accept it immediately, but instead began to feign refusal.

This was also a necessary step, otherwise, it would invite criticism.

"You are capable of this position."

"However, you must handle two errands for me before you can officially become the Heir."

Qin Gaoyang's face was full of majesty.

For this son, he was still quite satisfied.

Whether it was martial cultivation or scheming means, they were all top-notch.

"Then I will respectfully obey."

Qin Zhaoyang nodded solemnly.

Although the two things his father mentioned were definitely not simple, he could only nod and agree.

He would think of a way slowly later.

This banquet lasted until the afternoon, and everyone dispersed one after another.

Night, silent as water.

In a dim main hall.

"Father, I know I was wrong, please spare me."

Qin Yuxuan knelt on the ground, crying like rain.

She also didn't expect this result; all her calculations were useless.

In front of absolute strength, any conspiracy and trickery had nowhere to hide.

"Spare you? You traitorous thing, you've lost face for me."

Qin Zhaoyang's face was like frost, and he waved his hand.

Then two armored men appeared in the darkness, completely ignoring Qin Yuxuan's shrill screams, and dragged her backward.

Soon she disappeared from the main hall.

Qin Zhaoyang remained indifferent throughout.

He had as many as twenty concubine-born daughters, but at this moment, they couldn't compare to Qin Ruobing and Lu Zhangsheng combined.

This was the weight brought by a top-tier powerhouse.

In order not to cause a rift between the two, he could only choose to destroy his own kin for the sake of justice.

"The Marquis is quite decisive."

At this moment, Lu Zhangsheng walked out from behind the screen.

He was specifically called by Qin Zhaoyang to watch a good show.

"I called you here hoping you could help me ascend to the position of Heir."

Qin Zhaoyang didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the point.

After speaking, he didn't wait for Lu Zhangsheng's answer and opened all the dozen boxes on the ground.

Clatter...

A large batch of colorful strange stones and spirit items appeared before his eyes.

Even the spiritual energy in the air became much richer.

"These things are my accumulation of decades."

Qin Zhaoyang smiled.

To move Lu Zhangsheng, he spared no effort.

The two were not in a superior-subordinate relationship, so he couldn't force Lu Zhangsheng.

He could only choose to bundle interests.

"I wonder what the matter is?"

Lu Zhangsheng couldn't find any reason to refuse.

This batch of spirit items on the ground could likely increase his resources by millions of points.

"Very simple, help me kill two people; with your strength, it shouldn't be a big problem."

Seeing Lu Zhangsheng moved, Qin Zhaoyang's face showed joy.

"This son-in-law agrees."

Lu Zhangsheng smiled faintly.

In his view, even if he wasn't a match, he could leave safely.

With his Five Elements Evasion Technique, there was almost no one in the entire Great Zhou who could keep him.

"I will send these things to your room later."

Qin Zhaoyang said with a smile.

He didn't wait for Lu Zhangsheng to complete the task before delivering the spirit items.

This could bring the two closer.

Having been in the world for many years, he naturally understood this bit of human sophistication.

"Many thanks, Marquis."

Lu Zhangsheng had a good impression of Qin Zhaoyang being so "sensible."

With this batch of spirit items, his divine abilities could be upgraded by another level.

Late at night.

Lu Zhangsheng sat cross-legged in the room, looking at the piles of spirit items on the ground, and immediately began to absorb them.

【Source Energy Point +1000.】

【Source Energy Point +1000.】

The resources in his hands were growing rapidly, as if there was no limit.
