Chapter 146: Trouble Arises Once More

~8 min read 1,477 words

After speaking the name "Tianxingzi," a look of dazed realization flashed across Mo Wuming's expression.

"So it was him who intervened; that being the case, everything can be explained."

Tianxingzi?

Hearing the two of them conversing, a hint of curiosity flashed across Wang Jianqiang's face, "Who is this Tianxingzi?"

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Mo Wuming looked at Tu Youyou, "Daoist Friend Tu, I have only heard some generalities about this Tianxingzi, so it would be better for you to explain."

Tu Youyou nodded and explained to Wang Jianqiang, "This person Tianxingzi is extremely mysterious; ever since entering the North City District, no one has seen him make a move."

"No one knows his specific strength, only that he is skilled in Astrology, and his ability to deduce is nothing short of divine."

"Even the powerhouses ranked at the top of the Battle Stele are unwilling to provoke him lightly."

After hearing Tu Youyou's explanation, Wang Jianqiang's expression was full of surprise.

Astrology!

This is a rare skill indeed.

Because the heritage is extremely scarce and the difficulty of cultivation is immense, Cultivators who practice this art in the world are extremely rare.

He hadn't expected that one was actually hidden here in the North City District.

Just at this moment, Mo Wuming spoke up, "Although Tianxingzi is difficult to deal with, Daoist Friend Wang need not be overly worried."

"This person never takes the initiative to stir up trouble; the reason he helped Wu Dao should simply be that Wu Dao hired him to perform divination with Contribution Points, not because he subjectively wants to deal with Daoist Friend Wang."

Wang Jianqiang nodded, "I hope so."

Being targeted by a Cultivator proficient in the art of divination is certainly not a good thing.

After speaking, he looked at the two of them, "Now that the crisis has been resolved, I should return to the South City District. Are you two coming back with me, or will you continue to stay here?"

Tu Youyou glanced at Wang Jianqiang and suddenly remembered that the Pill she had on her had long since been exhausted; it was time to fleece him again.

Her gaze flickered, and she said calmly, "I have some questions regarding cultivation that I need Daoist Friend Wang to help with, so I will go back with you."

Wang Jianqiang's eyes lit up; he looked at Tu Youyou's long, lethal legs, felt an inexplicable tightening at his waist, and chuckled, "Alright, Wang is most fond of helping others."

Mo Wuming did not notice the eye contact between the two. After Wang Jianqiang finished speaking, he sighed, "My injuries are not light, and I need to go back to recuperate for a period of time, so I will also return with Daoist Friend Wang."

In a corner of the North City District stands a tall and luxurious Pavilion.

The Pavilion is over a hundred zhang tall and is the tallest building in this area.

All around the Pavilion, there is an air of peace.

There are no roaming Cultivators, nor are there any battles occurring.

This is extremely rare in the chaotic North City District.

And the reason for all this is precisely the Cultivator who resides in the hundred-zhang Pavilion... Tianxingzi!

Since entering Shenfeng City, Tianxingzi has not displayed powerful strength, nor has he managed to ascend the Battle Stele.

But he has established a foothold in this chaotic North City District based solely on his divine Astrology.

Although Astrology cannot directly increase combat power, it possesses uncanny abilities such as inferring the unknown and predicting the future, making it extremely difficult to deal with.

Even those top-tier existences ranked at the forefront of the Battle Stele hold a certain awe for this uncanny power.

Therefore, even though Tianxingzi has never shown overly strong power, no one dares to provoke him.

This is what has created this scene of peace that is so out of place with the rest of the North City District.

On the top floor of the hundred-zhang-tall Pavilion, a long-haired youth sits cross-legged with his eyes closed.

His face is like jade, and his appearance is handsome.

In terms of looks, he is in no way inferior to the handsome Mo Wuming, but unlike Mo Wuming's masculinity, his features lean more toward the feminine.

On his forehead is a complex silver rune.

At a glance, it is as if one is looking at the vast starry sky, filled with a sense of mystery.

At the very moment Wang Jianqiang killed Wu Dao.

His closed eyes suddenly snapped open.

A faint, imperceptible smile curled the corners of his mouth.

"Wang Jianqiang, I have waited for you for a long time."

"Since you have entered this North City District today, do not leave again."

"This is the fate already destined for you."

After whispering to himself.

He took out a Sound Transmission Talisman and sent out several messages at once.

The content of the message was only one thing.

"Shenfeng City's number one in the way of the Pill, Wang Jianqiang, has entered the North City District!"

Above the ruins.

Hearing Mo Wuming's words, Wang Jianqiang nodded, "Since that is the case, let us go back together."

As he spoke, he was about to turn and leave.

His figure suddenly paused, he turned his head to look at the horizon, and his brows slowly furrowed.

"What is it?"

Noticing Wang Jianqiang's actions, Tu Youyou and Mo Wuming were startled.

Wang Jianqiang gazed into the distance, golden luster flickering in his eyes.

"It seems that if we want to leave this North City District, we are going to experience some trouble."

Tu Youyou and Mo Wuming looked in the direction of Wang Jianqiang's gaze, but there was nothing there.

A flash of confusion crossed the faces of the two, and they were just about to ask again.

A sound of breaking through the air suddenly came faintly from afar.

Immediately following, three figures appeared at the end of their line of sight.

They tore through the sky at an astonishing speed and appeared before them.

After seeing the appearances of the three clearly, the expressions of Tu Youyou and Mo Wuming tightened simultaneously.

"Be careful, these three are He Yaoguang who is ninth on the Battle Stele, Rong Hai who is eighth on the Battle Ranking, and Min Zhangkong who is fifth on the Battle Stele!"

"They are all Golden Core Stage Perfection cultivators, and their combat power is even above that of Wu Dao."

"Especially that Min Zhangkong, who once easily defeated Wu Dao in just a few moves; his combat power far exceeds that of ordinary Golden Core Stage Perfection cultivators."

The warning voices of Tu Youyou and Mo Wuming rang out in his mind at the same time.

Wang Jianqiang nodded calmly.

Long before the two gave their warning, he had already obtained the information on the three through the Attribute Panel in his system.

He looked at the three with a flat expression, "What is the meaning of this, you three?"

The three ignored Wang Jianqiang and sized him up with gazes full of greed and heat.

A moment later, Min Zhangsheng, who was positioned in the center of the three, spoke indifferently, "You are Wang Jianqiang?"

Wang Jianqiang smiled, "How rude. Did your mother not teach you that before asking someone else, you should answer their question first?"

These three were clearly here with ill intent, so he naturally had no need to be polite.

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, Min Zhangsheng's face darkened.

"Stop wasting breath on him. Before others arrive, let's capture him first; that way we can seize the initiative and reap more benefits."

"That's right. Didn't Tianxingzi already say that the person with Tu Youyou and Mo Wuming is Wang Jianqiang? It must be him, there's no mistake."

To the side, He Yaoguang and Rong Hai looked at Wang Jianqiang, a malicious look flashing across their faces.

This was the number one Alchemist of Shenfeng City, after all.

As long as they obtained him, their cultivation speed would inevitably be greatly increased.

Even if others came later to get a share of the spoils.

As the ones who captured Wang Jianqiang, they would certainly receive the greatest benefits.

Hearing the two's words, Min Zhangsheng nodded, then looked coldly at Wang Jianqiang, "You ungrateful thing, once I capture you later, I will definitely make you regret your loose tongue."

As soon as his voice fell, a powerful fluctuation of Spiritual Power instantly surged from his body.

However.

Just as the three were preparing to make a move.

Wang Jianqiang moved a step faster.

Amidst dazzling Golden Light, his physique instantly expanded three times over.

His figure flashed, appearing before Rong Hai.

A fist the size of a sand pot, under Rong Hai's astonished gaze, smashed fiercely into his body.
