Chapter 112: Great victory! Return to the county city!

"Kid, do you know what you are saying?"

Killing intent was fully revealed in Mo Xueyou's eyes.

After hearing this, his face was full of anger, thinking the other party had lost his mind under the pressure of death.

Behind him, a group of heretic cult experts all looked at Lu Zhangsheng as if looking at a fool.

The last clash hadn't passed many days, and this person could only barely resist.

At this moment, the Holy Sect had sent four more experts, yet this person was still so arrogant, simply courting death.

"Kill."

Mo Xueyou quickly activated his demonic power, his face covered in demonic stripes, scales rising around his body, and then together with the four men in black robes, rushed toward Lu Zhangsheng.

The five held weapons, their baleful auras intertwined together, like wolf smoke, incomparably astonishing.

In an instant, the few arrived in front of Lu Zhangsheng, raised their respective weapons, and slashed forward directly.

"Whoosh..."

Sharp energy traveled through the void, as if wanting to cut through everything, even in the air bursts of sonic booms came.

For this strike, the few had already used their full force, firmly surrounding Lu Zhangsheng in the middle, preparing to kill him in one strike.

Lu Zhangsheng's expression was always as calm as water.

"Hum..."

He planted his feet wide, held his long blade, and fully activated the Qi and Blood in his body; a transparent Aura Shield instantly appeared around his body, radiance flowing on it, quite miraculous.

His entire body erupted with a thick essence Qi, rushing straight into the clouds.

As if a giant mountain, it had a sense of being immovable.

Immediately following, he also slashed toward Mo Xueyou with one blade.

He ignored the offensive of the other four people.

"Whoosh..."

A dazzling cold light flickered at the tip of the blade, carrying thick killing intent, bursts of whistling sounds spreading in all directions.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The long blades of both sides collided fiercely, powerful energy splashing wantonly, carving gullies into the ground, the surrounding dust rolling, a complete mess.

The weapons of the four men in black also smashed fiercely onto Lu Zhangsheng's Body Protection Aura.

Exploding with earth-shattering loud sounds.

Under the flow of radiance on the Aura Shield, not even a ripple was revealed.

After one strike.

Mo Xueyou was actually knocked back several meters by a huge force, his expression incomparably shocked.

His right hand holding the blade was still trembling slightly.

Sufficient to show the terrifying nature of the blade strike just now.

Lu Zhangsheng also retreated several meters, landing steadily on the ground, his expression flat as water.

A sense of being as towering as a mountain emerged spontaneously.

Both sides struck with full force, yet they fought to a draw.

"This is impossible!"

Mo Xueyou was full of shock.

It was as if a monstrous wave were surging in his heart.

When they fought last time, his own strength had completely suppressed the other party.

The other party could only barely resist relying on speed.

He didn't expect that in just a few days, this person would have a heaven-shaking transformation; this simply didn't conform to common sense.

"Who exactly are you?"

At this moment, he seemed to have his cognition overturned, roaring loudly.

The four men in black who participated in the siege were also full of fear.

Just now, the few of them joined forces for one strike, yet they didn't even break the other party's Body Protection Aura, simply shocking.

At this instant, a trace of intent to retreat rose in the hearts of the few.

They couldn't do anything to the other party; if they continued to fight, the consequences would be hard to predict.

With this kind of strength, only a Tuotai expert from the Holy Sect could take action.

A group of heretic cultists behind saw this situation, all of them with eyes wide open, faces full of fear.

In just a few days, the other party's strength had actually soared again.

"Ten thousand victories, ten thousand victories."

On the city wall, a group of City Guard soldiers saw this and cheered loudly one after another, the sound ringing through the clouds.

Everyone also didn't expect their own Lord Ye to actually be able to fight one against five and still occupy the upper hand.

The other party's strength had clearly broken through again.

This made everyone feel incomparably surprised and happy.

Yue Shulan and Tong Yuhua and the others were also full of joy.

In this battle, they would win a great victory.

Just when everyone had different thoughts, Lu Zhangsheng moved.

Only to see him stamp his feet, erupting suddenly, rushing out like lightning.

"Zzz..."

Streaks of residual shadows appeared in the void, instantly arriving in front of a man in black clothes on the left, drawing his blade and slashing.

"Not good."

The man hurriedly blocked with his blade, sharp blade light crossing in front of his chest.

Mo Xueyou and the others also rushed toward Lu Zhangsheng again.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Lu Zhangsheng flashed his body, instantly dodging the attacks of the few, and slashed fiercely at the man in black's weapon.

A huge collision sound rang out, a powerful energy splashing wantonly.

The long blade in the middle-aged man in black's hand was directly deflected.

Watching the dazzling blade light in front getting closer and closer, his expression was incomparably terrified.

Before he could react.

The blade light instantly slashed across his neck.

"You..."

The middle-aged man clutched his neck, his eyes full of unwillingness.

Then he fell backward slowly, his head rolling to the side, a large amount of fresh blood gushing out.

One strike, a Blood Exchange Perfection expert beheaded.

With Lu Zhangsheng's several perfect-grade breakthroughs, plus the superposition of skill secret arts, killing some ordinary Blood Exchange Perfection experts was almost effortless.

Only some experts containing demonic power were qualified to be his opponents.

Everything happened too quickly, leaving the many heretic

"Bad, this person's speed is too fast; it's hard to defend against."

The numerous heretic cultists wore expressions of fear.

The other three men in black were so frightened that their whole bodies began to tremble.

The four of them were equal in strength; if the opponent could kill one of them with a single blade strike, they wouldn't be able to block it either.

"Run."

Under the pressure of death, the three actually turned around and ran backward.

"You wretches."

Seeing this situation, Mo Xueyou was full of anger.

The three of them actually fled without a fight; it was simply a total loss of face for the Holy Sect.

"Swish..."

In an instant, Lu Zhangsheng activated his Floating Light and Shadow body technique and quickly charged toward the three.

His speed was as fast as a thunderclap.

With a few flashes, he arrived not far behind the three.

The three were instantly terrified, their souls fleeing, as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

Lu Zhangsheng swung his blade rapidly, like a startled swan, weaving through the side of the three.

The sharp blade light cut through the void, turning into giant nets that surrounded the three tightly.

"Helmsman Mo, save me!"

The three drew their blades to resist bitterly, their faces full of despair.

The sharp blade light made their bodies ache; they had absolutely no power to resist.

Before Mo Xueyou could arrive to rescue them, a brilliant blade light instantly pierced through the three bodies.

"Splash..."

The three bodies were directly cut in half at the waist by the blade light, and a massive amount of fresh blood sprayed into the void; the scene was as tragic as hell.

Then, the upper halves of the three bodies were still crawling on the ground, their wails echoing across the entire battlefield.

With such severe injuries, they certainly could not survive.

From the moment the three fled to being killed by Lu Zhangsheng, only a few breaths had passed.

The Great Completion grade Absolute Spirit Slash, transformed into a blade array, displayed its power for the first time.

"Lord Ye has divine might!"

The numerous government martial artists at the edge of the city wall, seeing this situation, clenched their fists one after another, their faces flushed with excitement.

"Everyone, kill your way out of the city and follow the Lord to slaughter that group of heretic cultists..."

The crowd immediately shouted, their momentum shaking the heavens.

At this moment, the city gates opened wide, and a large number of martial artists rushed out of the city, marching majestically toward the numerous heretic cultists to slaughter them.

The group of heretic cult bandits was full of terror, their momentum plummeting.

If not for Mo Xueyou suppressing them, this group would likely have turned and fled long ago.

At this time, Mo Xueyou also arrived behind Lu Zhangsheng, his eyes full of shock and anger.

Five people surrounded and killed, and in the blink of an eye, only he remained.

This caused the anger in his heart to be uncontrollable.

"Kill."

He fully unleashed the demonic power within his body and fiercely charged up.

The baleful aura around his body rolled, shooting straight into the clouds, emitting an extremely evil intent.

"Slash."

Lu Zhangsheng was equally unwilling to show weakness, raising his blade and charging up.

Then he slashed forward with one blade.

The brilliant blade light flickered on the edge of the blade, its momentum incomparably sharp.

Under the full activation of the Threefold Wave secret art, the attack power of this blade had already reached its peak.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

The two fought fiercely on the open ground, the sharp energy splashing wantonly, cutting the nearby ground.

Dust rolled all around, a scene of utter chaos.

Lu Zhangsheng moved through Mo Xueyou's side like a swimming dragon, and as his long blade danced, his momentum grew higher and higher.

Gradually, the endless blade light turned into a giant net, firmly surrounding the opponent in the middle.

As time passed, Mo Xueyou had been firmly suppressed by Lu Zhangsheng.

If this continued, his fall was only a matter of time.

Mo Xueyou struggled to resist the surrounding blade light, his face full of fear.

Wisps of blade light cut into his own black scales, emitting a harsh, shrill sound.

As waves of pain attacked him continuously, he became even more violent.

With his body soaked in demonic power, he still couldn't resist; the opponent's blade technique was simply too terrifying.

"He is no longer a match for this person."

At this moment, Mo Xueyou had to admit this fact.

If he continued to fight, he would surely die.

A breath of death surged into his heart, making him feel incomparably cold.

Then, Mo Xueyou slashed forward with all his might.

The blinding blade light seemed to want to tear through the void, colliding fiercely with Lu Zhangsheng's long blade.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

A huge counter-shock force struck, and Mo Xueyou's body retreated rapidly, then with a few flashes, he disappeared near the battlefield.

He actually fled without any hesitation.

Lu Zhangsheng's expression turned cold, and he immediately activated Floating Light and Shadow to pursue him.

As his footsteps shifted, he was like a white ray of light traveling wantonly through the vast world.

He followed firmly behind the opponent, still closing in rapidly.

This person, he must kill; it was impossible to let him escape.

The two, one chasing and one fleeing, gradually moved away from the small town.

"Ten thousand victories, slaughter all these heretic cultists..."

Seeing Lu Zhangsheng win, the numerous government martial artists were full of joy, and then with rainbow-like momentum, they charged toward the numerous heretic cultists.

"Ah..." The sounds of killing, the clashing of weapons, and the breaking of bones spread across the entire battlefield.

A powerful baleful aura shot straight into the clouds, stirring up layers of smoke and dust.

At the edge of a dense forest.

Lu Zhangsheng caught up with Mo Xueyou again and slashed at his back.

Mo Xueyou immediately slashed back with a blade.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Afterward, Mo Xueyou relied on this counter-shock force to flee backward once more.

The two, one chasing and one fleeing, traveled through the dense forest.

Such a scene had already been experienced more than ten times.

Mo Xueyou was like an unkillable cockroach, relying on the demonic power in his body to struggle and hold on.

Lu Zhangsheng had been pursuing the opponent, looking as if he would not stop until he killed him.

"Bastard."

Mo Xueyou was full of exasperation.

Now he couldn't win the fight and could only choose to flee.

He didn't expect that in just a few days, the situation would be reversed.

But fortunately, he had already sent a message to the experts within the Holy Sect, and he assumed someone would come to save him soon.

The two fought all the way, shifting the battle over a hundred miles.

Wherever they passed, the surrounding grass and trees were all cut into powder by the energy.

One day later, in the evening.

Mo Xueyou fled with a pale face, his breathing even somewhat disordered.

If not for the demonic power in his body, he would have long since reached the end of his rope.

Lu Zhangsheng, on the other hand, was calm and composed throughout, as if he were on an outing.

This made Mo Xueyou feel incomparably terrified.

"Could it be that I am to fall here today?"

He felt somewhat desperate in his heart.

Just at this moment, a powerful baleful aura struck from the forest in the distance, with astonishing speed.

In the blink of an eye, it arrived not far in front of Lu Zhangsheng, revealing an old man in a red robe.

The old man's face was withered, his eyes like lightning.

"Protector Miao, save me."

Seeing the newcomer, Mo Xueyou was full of joy.

This Headquarters Protector was one of the Ten Great Protectors of the Holy Sect, a Tuotai-level expert; the opponent was definitely no match for him.

"It's Miao Qingfeng, this heretic cult expert."

Lu Zhangsheng's eyes sharpened.

His body began to tense up, as if he were being stared at by some kind of fierce beast.

This person was at the top of the government's wanted list; besides that mysterious Venerable Lord, there were only the Ten Great Protectors.

The opponent happened to be ranked tenth.

His strength had long since stepped into the Tuotai realm.

"Little brat, you dare to repeatedly kill experts of my Holy Sect; This Seat will pull out your bones and peel your skin..."

Miao Qingfeng clawed forward.

Wisps of baleful aura circled, as if there were endless evil ghosts roaring on the claws, the momentum fierce and incomparable.

From Miao Qingfeng's appearance to his attack, it was only in an instant.

"Roar..."

Lu Zhangsheng encountered the greatest crisis of his life.

At this moment, he had already been firmly locked onto by the opponent; only by taking this blow could he immediately retreat using his body technique.

He fully unleashed his protective True Gang and Threefold Wave, a transparent Gang Qi shield firmly surrounding him, the light flowing and airtight.

Then, he slashed forward with one blade.

"Splash..."

The brilliant blade light flickered in the void, as if even the setting sun in the high sky was overshadowed.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

As the long blade and giant claw collided, Lu Zhangsheng's entire body retreated rapidly.

The protective Gang Qi held for a few breaths before collapsing, turning into wisps of energy that drifted in all directions.

Afterward, his footsteps flashed a few times, and he disappeared before the two, like a ghost shadow.

"Such fast speed, such hard protective Gang Qi."

Miao Qingfeng's face was solemn.

With this kind of speed, even he couldn't touch the opponent in the slightest.

Not only that, this person's strength was not weak; he took his blow head-on and was actually not killed.

Among Blood Exchange martial artists, he was simply terrifyingly strong.

This person was young, and his potential was too huge.

He prepared to report this matter to the Holy Sect and send experts with full force to track the opponent's whereabouts.

Mo Xueyou also showed a lingering fear.

If not for Miao Qingfeng coming to the rescue, he would surely have died today.

He secretly swore in his heart that after returning to the Holy Sect this time, he would begin to fully integrate with the demonic power; the next time they met would be the opponent's death day.

Lu Zhangsheng traveled rapidly through the forest, killing intent surging in his heart.

Once his strength improved in the future, he would definitely kill Miao Qingfeng and Mo Xueyou.

If not for this heretic cult protector's interference, Mo Xueyou would likely have fallen already.

Lu Zhangsheng put away his thoughts and hurried toward the direction of the county city.

The next day, early morning.

Facing the morning sun, Lu Zhangsheng returned to his own small courtyard.

As soon as he stepped in, he saw Fang Qing and her younger brother rush out, their faces full of surprise.

Fang Qing's eyes were even red.

"You had no news for many days, I thought..."

The great battle these days had kept her trembling with fear; two Patrol Envoys had died in battle again, making her increasingly anxious.

In the dead of night, she even cried secretly several times.

Fortunately, Lu Zhangsheng finally returned safely today, which allowed her to set her heart at ease.

"I've made you worry."

Lu Zhangsheng smiled faintly.

"I'll go prepare good wine and food..."

Fang Qing twisted her body and walked quickly toward the kitchen.

For the next few days, Lu Zhangsheng stayed at home practicing martial arts.

News about this battle also gradually spread.

Countless people were shocked.

They didn't expect this mysterious expert to not only block the heretic cultists' attack but also lead everyone to slaughter in all directions, which was somewhat unexpected.

Many people began searching for "Ye Chen's" whereabouts with full force again, but still had no harvest.

In the end, it was left unsettled.

Demon-Suppressing Division Main Hall.

When the three Deputy Hall Masters, including Qin Ruobing, received the news, they were also stunned, doubting if they had heard wrong.

They were even preparing to send experts to support the opponent; now it seemed there was no need.

The three thought the opponent couldn't hold on for a few days, but they didn't expect this kind of scene.

Xuanjia Army station.

Two people were communicating about something.

A middle-aged man wearing white armor sat upright in a chair, looking at the intelligence in his hand, his eyes moving slightly.

"Interesting, such a late bloomer has actually appeared in the county city."

Wei Shaoxuan wore a smile.

As the Commander of the Xuanjia Army, one of the most powerful people in the county city, he hadn't heard such interesting intelligence in a long time.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

At this time, he coughed violently a few times, and wisps of crimson seeped onto his clean white handkerchief.

"Lord, they have offered generous conditions that can heal your injuries, why..."

Another man dressed as a middle-aged scholar spoke in a low tone.

Wei Shaoxuan waved his hand, his expression somewhat desolate.

At noon.

After Lu Zhangsheng finished lunch, he walked directly toward the Demon-Suppressing Division Yamen.

After arriving at a side hall, he exchanged the heads of some Bone-Forging experts he had in his hand for contribution points.

After several years of slaughter, he now had over twenty thousand points in his hand.

The thirty-five thousand contribution points required for the Deputy Hall Master assessment were not far off.

Lu Zhangsheng planned to hunt Mo Xueyou and some heretic cult experts while mining with full force.

Once his strength improved to Tuotai, he would go to participate in the Deputy Hall Master assessment.

The goal of becoming a Deputy Hall Master within three years was also approaching rapidly.

At this moment, in a side hall of the Demon-Suppressing Division.

He Chunlin looked at Chen Zhanpeng and Zhu Houyu below the platform and spoke faintly:

"You two have already broken through to the mid-stage of Blood Exchange; the Deputy Hall Master will likely be produced between you two."

"The two people under Hall Master Qin have not yet broken through to Blood Exchange, so it's hard to compete with you."

"We will definitely charge with full force."

The two were full of confidence.

In their view, among the younger generation, there was almost no one who could compare with them.

As for that mysterious expert Ye Chen, he was likely not a person from the Demon-Suppressing Division.

After inquiring in many ways, there was no information about this person.

After Lu Zhangsheng exchanged his points, he arrived at the hall where Qin Ruobing was on duty.

When he arrived, Tong Yuhua happened to be present as well.

Seeing Lu Zhangsheng arrive, a smile appeared on her face.

These days, she had also been worrying about Lu Zhangsheng's whereabouts; hearing that he had returned safely, she also breathed a sigh of relief.

"You two are about to break through to Blood Exchange, right?"

Qin Ruobing smiled faintly, making people feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze.

"Yes."

Lu Zhangsheng and the other didn't say much, nodding honestly.

"This secret manual is bestowed upon you; the situation is becoming increasingly tense, and your strength is not strong, so you must not be careless."

After speaking, she took a secret manual from her bosom and placed it on the table.

"Floating Dragon Phantom Body Technique."

Seeing the large characters on the cover, Lu Zhangsheng's eyes moved slightly.

This Qin Ruobing really valued the two of them, cultivating them as confidants.

This top-tier body technique was clearly of great value, but it was of little use to him.

"Many thanks, Hall Master Qin."

Tong Yuhua immediately expressed her thanks, her face full of joy.

Afterward, the two took the secret manual, communicated for a while longer, and then turned and left.

For the next period of time.

That group of heretic cultists became increasingly frequent in their activities outside the city.

The smell of gunpowder between the two sides became stronger and stronger, and a dark cloud lingered in the hearts of many martial artists.

At the same time, Lu Zhangsheng was also observing the County Magistrate's residence in secret at all times.

The opponent's means of contacting Du Ling were becoming increasingly secretive.

He suspected that this group's plan was likely about to succeed.

The great decisive battle might break out in a few years.

These days, Lu Zhangsheng also occasionally went out of the city to kill heretic cultists, and his days were developing in an orderly manner.
