In the stormy night, a white-robed man with an eerie golden mask stopped on Phoenix Parade in the capital city. One man and one sword carrying two heads stopped Lin Qingtian’s entourage.
Lin Qingtian’s horses rustled and couldn’t come forward while that person walked towards the entourage step by step.
A few hundred meters away on Three Sages Temple, Yan Liqiang’s sharp eyes pierced the rain and darkness locking onto that person, more specifically, the two heads. As the person walked, the two heads wobbled, giving Yan Liqiang a familiar feeling.
“Who dares to stop the Grand Chancellor on his way?” one guard yelled at the man.
The man didn’t seem to hear it and kept walking towards them. The horses were all out of control and wouldn’t listen no matter how much the guards beat them.
Suddenly, one rhinodrake steed knelt down with a whine and almost flung the guard off. From this rhinodrake steed, the entire entourage of horses started to kneel. Lin Qingtian’s group became went chaotic.
Yan Liqiang had never seen such a scene and was extremely shocked.
Lin Qingtian’s carriage was still silent.
Twenty or so guards jumped off from the kneeling horses and pulled out their weapons, roaring as they charged at the white-robed person like a giant net while stepping on the water on the street.
Those who could be Lin Qingtian’s guards were at least Martial Masters or above. Those guards were strong and synced together well.
When Lin Qingtian’s guards were thirty meters from that person, the white-robed man moved his sword lightly.
One horizontal slice!
It didn’t slice people!
It sliced the rain!
Raindrops flew out, going from soft to hard. All the guards suddenly had a red dot in their forehead before their head exploded. Twenty or so bodies instantly appeared in the Phoenix Parade. Bloody water and brain matter splashed across the streets.
The heavens lit up again in thunder. Everyone’s faces in the entourage were pale. Martial Masters were like insects to such power. They couldn’t even stand one attack.
“Lin Qingtian…” a voice with endless killing intent but a sliver of oldness sounded from behind the mask. He threw the two heads at Lin Qingtian’s carriage.
In the hands of the white-robed man, even raindrops could kill much less than the two heads.
The two heads flew out like cannons.
In a rumble, Lin Qingtian’s carriage exploded.
The two heads floated a few meters in front of the carriage in the air. Lin Qingtian reached out with one hand and stared straight at the golden masked man.
Yan Liqiang finally saw the two floating heads. Their faces were pale, eyes sunken with only the skin covering the bones. They were the Banes of Heaven and Earth.
When he went with Sun Bingchen to send Ye Tiancheng into the capital, he encountered the Banes of Heaven and Earth in Hui Provincial City. The two easily took the heads of Ye Tiancheng and the Crown Prince’s advisor Lord Fu. Yan Liqiang still clearly remembered their dominance. That was the first time he had seen the two true masters, but now their heads were in the hands of that white-robed man.
“Who are you?” Lin Qingtian’s eyes shot out beams as he stared at the mask.
“Just a student of Jade Luo Palace!”
Lin Qingtian’s eyes narrowed.
Jade Luo Palace, the most mysterious of the four major sects. Yan Liqiang was overwhelmed with shock. No one knew where the sect was or who was a descendant of the sect. Their sect members almost never roamed the world but every few decades or hundred years, a sect member would come out to do something very shocking and then disappear. The last time one appeared, it was at least sixty years ago. Yan Liqiang remembered the tale that the last time one appeared, he annihilated the entire Blood River Sect by himself.
Why did someone from Jade Luo Palace want to attack Lin Qingtian?
Countless questions popped into Yan Liqiang’s head.
“Are you not afraid of death, attacking the Grand Chancellor of the Great Han Empire?”
“Jade Luo Palace slays demons and protects justice. We fight for the world and never know fear!” The white-robed man raised his sword and pointed at Lin Qingtian. “A demon putting on human skin and becoming the Grand Chancellor of the Great Han Empire is a great misfortune of the world!”
Lin Qingtian’s eyes went cold and attacked first!
His fingers crushed and the two heads above him exploded into countless bones and blood that shot out at the white-robed man like countless arrows.
The white-robed man sliced!
Lin Qingtian was like a huge vulture as he opened his hands and dashed in the air, punching out. His fist wind shocked the streets like lightning.
Rain within a hundred-meter radius paused and scattered under that huge pressure. The water from the ground was shaken up and flew towards the air.
The white-robed man sliced again!
Sword light rose like the sun in darkness. Sword Qi swooped at Lin Qingtian like the ocean!
Fist force and sword force clashed!
An explosion sounded on the street.
The stone boards within a hundred-meter radius sank down, and countless cracks appeared. The shops on the side crashed into ruins as though they were made from sand. The rain in the air turned into a white pulsing wave-like mist and spread out. All the guards and Lin Qingtian’s entourage spat blood. Their bones were all cracked and they fell to the ground.
Even from a thousand meters away, Yan Liqiang felt the tower shake.
Half the capital city was shocked by this attack.
Yan Liqiang’s face changed. This was the power of top-level powerful beings — it was too terrifying!
Rumble rumble…
The tower was shaking just like the ground as wood from the roof fell down.
In a few seconds, half the street had disappeared. The two figures dashed out of the capital while flying.
Yan Liqiang gritted his teeth and jumped out from the tower, chasing the two and also disappearing into the darkness…
