command, the cavalry began to pull on their reins. Under the skilled horsemen's control, the steeds moved toward the slowly opening city gate almost in perfect unison.As a frontier fortress, Fei Long...Bang!
A dull thud emanated from Zhang Liyang's body, accompanied by a powerful aura that spread throughout the room.
Phew!
With a single breath, he exhaled with such force that it pierced through the wall over ten feet away, creating a small hole!
"The first odd meridian has been opened!"
Feeling the surging qi of heaven and earth coursing through his meridians, Zhang Liyang clenched his fists.
"Though a jade talisman can continuously gather the energy of heaven and earth, it’s not as fast as elixirs. Unfortunately, I don't have any elixirs left."
Zhang Liyang felt a pang of nostalgia for the time when he, in a certain environment, used to treat blood dan as if it were candy.
"Let's start with those of lower cultivation levels first!"
Remembering last night's agreement with the group and the system's issued task, Zhang Liyang's eyes gleamed.
"Sir!"
"Well, I won't go with you on patrol today. You guys go ahead."
"Yes!"
Watching Yuan Li lead the troops of Panshi Camp on patrol, Zhang Liyang waited for a while before swaying slowly out of the Xue Lin Manor.
As soon as he stepped out the door, Zhang Liyang keenly sensed someone was watching him.
A wry smile touched his lips, Zhang Liyang seeming oblivious as he continued walking down the street at his own pace.
"Go tell your brother, the eunuch is out on the street, and he's all alone!"
Someone received the news and quickly relayed it to their home.
In a teahouse, a group of people were waiting, until the news arrived.
"Good, Heaven is on my side! This eunuch dared to come out alone today, just as I wished!"
"Brothers, let's loot some houses and beat up eunuchs today for some fun."
“Hold on!” Seeing a group of people eager to beat up the eunuch, someone quickly spoke up, “Everyone, wait a moment.”
"Why"
"It's daytime now, and those soldiers are patrolling. If we just rush in all at once, we'll attract those soldiers."
What do you suggest we do then
"It's simple, just lure him to a deserted place!"
Someone quickly volunteered to take on the task of seduction.
"Don't overdo it. Don't kill him."
"Don't worry, I've got it under control!"
Several figures waved goodbye and quickly left the tavern, heading in the direction of Zhang Liyang.
Soon, they saw their target on a street.
"This eunuch is too handsome! What's he doing!"
Wearing a jade crown upon his raven hair, and clad in a flowing blue robe, one might mistake him for a handsome young master out shopping.
Looking at the shy girl on the street corner, staring at Zhang Liyang, suddenly made everyone else's noses turn up.
"A dead eunuch, what use is it to be so handsome!"
"Today, I have to punch that face hard!"
Those who were already displeased with Zhang Liyang now felt even more jealous and resentful because of his appearance.
Several people looked at each other with malice in their eyes and hurried towards Zhang Liyang.
Before coming, several people had already agreed that they would punch this dead eunuch as soon as they got up there, and then run away. They didn't believe that this dead eunuch wouldn't chase them.
The only temporary change is that they originally wanted to punch the belly, now it's unified into punching in the face!
Phew!
As they neared Zhang Liyang, the two of them hurriedly stepped forward and stood to his left and right, blocking any space for him to dodge.
The rest immediately charged, striking Zhang Liyang in the face.
At this moment, Zhang Liyang, seemingly unaware of the changes around him, suddenly changed his demeanor. His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his palms blurred as he moved. While blocking the punch aimed at his face, he simultaneously struck out with his elbows, hitting the heads of the two attackers on either side.
Under the immense force, both of their skulls were pounded like they had been hit by a heavy hammer. They didn't even have time to let out a whimper before collapsing limply to the ground.
This is still the result of Li Yang taking most of the force, otherwise, the two wouldn't just be unconscious.
They didn't want to kill Zhang Liyang, and Zhang Liyang didn't want to kill them either. Under their current circumstances, making enemies everywhere would only bring harm to themselves.
After taking care of the two on either side, Zhang Liyang, in the astonished gazes of the remaining people, delivered a palm strike to each opponent's neck, sending them limp to the ground.
This all sounds complicated, but it actually happened in the blink of an eye.
A passerby only saw a few people brushing past each other, and then four or five people suddenly fainted to the ground.
In the agreed-upon secluded spot, a group of people waited for some time but still hadn't seen Zhang Liyang arrive. They began to feel impatient.
Where are those people
"Could it be that eunuch got the news and ran away"
"Or haven't they found them yet"
A crowd of people speculated wildly, but in the end, they could only send a few more people out to look.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
With several muffled sounds, several people fell to the ground, unconscious. Only one person stared at Zhang Liyang with eyes full of terror.
"I have something to ask you," Zhang Liyang pulled the person into a narrow alleyway, smiling at them. "Are you guys planning an ambush on me"
"You... how did you know"
Looking at each other in silence, Zhang Liyang pointed to the unconscious people around them. "Do we even need to guess"
While speaking, Zhang Liyang placed his hand on the other person's shoulder and gradually increased his strength.
"Where do you plan to ambush me"
"You won't... ah!"
The gigantic hand transformed into a steel shackle, causing the man to instantly feel like his shoulders were about to be crushed.
"If you speak, I can make you fall into a blissful unconsciousness. If you don't... hum..."
With a cold snort, the man merely struggled slightly before revealing the location of his ambush.
"Well, you can pass out now."
With a single palm strike, he knocked the opponent unconscious. Zhang Liyang glanced at the system's reputation in the Jianghu, and the number behind it changed from 52 to 57.
It needs to be a big one.
Completing a task was never Zhang Liyang's goal; exceeding expectations was what he strived for. Just like the last time he led troops to wipe out the rebel cavalry, his exceptional performance earned him an incredibly generous reward.
Following the direction indicated by the man, Zhang Liyang quickly arrived at a secluded place. However, Zhang Liyang did not appear directly but cautiously searched the surroundings. He discovered that the strongest among them was at the late stage of the Qi Jing realm. At this point, Zhang Liyang confidently walked out from the road intersection.
"Huh Everyone, look! Isn't that our target"
"Indeed, it was that deceased eunuch!"
"Why is he the only one here Where are our people"
"Forget it, since he dares to come over, we'll make sure he can't leave. Attack!"
"Took off his pants!"
I don't like the look of his face, I'll punch him twice later!
Seeing Zhang Liyang appear alone, everyone else immediately rushed over, each face showing a hint of excitement.erate expression of innocence and grievance, Mu Yinghua couldn't help but smile. "Hmph, I'll believe you this once."Since gaining control of Feilong City, Mu Yinghua has rarely shown such an attitude....
