Chapter 166 Chu Ning, you are Zhang Bairen

In front of Liu Jianan, Chu Ning fell from the air.

Looking at Senior Brother Chu, Liu Jian'an's eyes were red.

Chu Ning slapped Liu Jian'an on the head in annoyance.

"All the words that Senior Brother told you back then were in vain. You didn't listen to a word of them."

For the sake of his junior fellow apprentice, when Chu Ning was in Daning County, he told Ji'an about some of the things he had asked Jincheng.

He was involved in the Wenjin Sect rebellion incident and was captured and became a slave of Dan.

But even so, he never gave up and worked hard to find a solution, until he stood out in the alchemist competition.

I told Ji'an all this just to let him know.

No matter what situation you encounter, don't give up easily, and don't have thoughts of suicide.

"Brother Chu, I..."

"What do you mean by 'my'? Are you trying to say that you chose to commit suicide because you were afraid that these people would catch you and use you to threaten Senior Brother?"

Chu Ning glared at Ji An and said, "You are so stupid. Even if you fall into the hands of these people, whether to save you is something I should consider. What if you have a perfect plan? On the other hand, if you have no way to save you, do you think you will be as stupid as you and go to die?"

"Which idiot gave you this idea?"

Listening to Senior Brother Chu's last words, Liu Jianan muttered in a low voice: "This... these principles were actually told to me by my father."

Chu Ning: ...

"Senior Brother Chu, my uncle and master are still in the city." Liu Jianan said anxiously.

"Yeah, I know. Keep going. Take this thing."

Chu Ning threw a storage bag to Liu Jianan. Liu Jianan was stunned. Senior Brother Chu wanted him to continue to escape.

Senior Brother Chu was not sure he could deal with the enemy this time.

"Don't be so hesitant. Hurry up and go. I'm going to take you to Rao City. That will be an extra burden."

"Okay, take care, brother."

Liu Jianan nodded heavily. Senior Brother Chu was right. If he followed Senior Brother Chu back to Raocheng, he would only hinder Senior Brother Chu from saving people.

Looking at Liu Jian'an's departing figure, Chu Ning narrowed his eyes slightly. The most ideal way to deal with the situation was not to go to Raozhou to rescue people, but to take Jian'an away.

In the entire Raozhou, the only person he cared about was Ji'an.

"I'm still not good enough to just sit there and watch."

Chu Ning smiled self-deprecatingly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and the next moment his figure disappeared from the spot.

…

…

Raozhou City, Chen Mansion.

Many cultivators in the city felt the energy fluctuations emanating from the Chen family.

The discovery shocked them.

In Raozhou, is there anyone who dares to cause trouble at the Chen family? Some young monks were curious and prepared to go and watch the fun, but were stopped by the elders.

"Are you rushing to die? Don't you know about the many sects that were wiped out today?"

Many young monks were shocked by the elders' scolding. Was it that group of mysterious masters who were attacking the Chen family? After a second thought, they also accepted the elders' guess. Apart from this group of mysterious masters, no one would target the Chen family at this time.

If you go over there out of curiosity at this time, you would be courting death.

Chen Mansion.

Chen Jingwu and Li An were lying on the ground covered in blood. They were not dead, nor did they not want to get up, but there was a terrifying pressure that was pinning them down.

Above, Zhang Jinghe was fighting alone against two cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage, and was clearly at a disadvantage.

This was not what made Chen Jingwu and Li An despair. What made them despair was that under the eaves of the Chen Mansion courtyard, there were two powerful late foundation-building masters standing.

Swoosh! Zhang Jinghe's shield broke, and a flying sword pierced his arm.

At the same time, the other three flying swords locked onto Zhang Jinghe's figure in a siege. Chen Jingwu and Li An below saw this scene and looked anxious.

The two cultivators in the late Foundation Establishment stage who were sitting on the eaves had smiling faces.

The opponent's defeat was expected by them. If the elder had not wanted to ask these three people about their relationship with Chu Ning, this person would have been killed long ago if the two junior brothers had not tried to kill him.

Zhang Jinghe also felt the three flying swords attacking him, but all the spiritual weapons and trump cards he could use had been used up in the previous battle.

It can't be stopped.

There is no way to retreat.

Zhang Jinghe gritted his teeth, quickly made hand gestures, and moved forward.

"Want to fight to the death?"

The old man in the late foundation building stage in front sneered and quickly retreated.

This person is already trapped in a jar, how could he possibly give the other party a chance to fight to the death.

However, what the old man did not expect was that Zhang Jinghe bit his tongue in the next step, spurting out a mouthful of blood, and his speed suddenly increased several times, and he was in front of him in the blink of an eye.

The old man's expression changed and he raised a yellow flag, forming a yellow barrier in front of him to prevent Zhang Jinghe from approaching.

However, Zhang Jinghe had already made up his mind to fight to the death if he could kill one to protect his capital, and make a profit if he killed two, so he brazenly crashed into the yellow barrier. At the same time, he formed seals with his hands, and all the spiritual power in his body was activated at this moment, transforming into a spiritual sword, and slashed at the old man.

Although this sword is not a flying sword, its power is no less than some high-grade spiritual weapons.

This sword condensed Zhang Jinghe's life essence and blood.

The yellow barrier was forcefully broken by Zhang Jinghe, and Zhang Jinghe was covered in blood, turning into a bloody man.

The old man frantically used his magic weapon to block Zhang Jinghe's sword, but the magic weapon instantly collapsed under Zhang Jinghe's sword.

Kill in one breath.

Seeing that the sword was about to fall on the old man, the old man shouted: "Elder, save me!"

Bang! A terrifying energy suddenly appeared, and the sword swung by Zhang Jinghe was instantly annihilated. At the same time, a big hand fell from the sky and slapped Zhang Jinghe.

"A powerful Jindan?"

There was a look of horror on Zhang Jinghe's face. He didn't expect that there was a powerful Jindan expert among this group of people.

Despair filled his eyes.

Facing a powerful Jindan master, he had no power to resist at all.

Chen Jingwu and Li An below also heard the old man's shout and saw the big hand.

The two looked at each other and saw disbelief in each other's eyes.

How could there be a powerful Jindan person?

"What did Senior Chu do?"

Li An couldn't believe that there was a Jindan strongman who wanted to threaten Chu Ning by capturing someone that Senior Chu cared about.

Could it be that Senior Chu has grown to the point where he can compete with a Jindan master?

How is this possible? How many years have passed?

There is no way that Senior Chu could form a pill so quickly.

Big hand snapped.

Zhang Jinghe fell directly from the air.

But the big hand did not dissipate, but continued to fall, as if to destroy the entire Chen Mansion with one palm.

The four foundation-building masters who were standing above the Chen Mansion were about to dodge when suddenly their bodies trembled. At the same time, four rays of light shot towards them like meteors.

Swoosh! In that instant, the four foundation-building masters fell to the ground.

By the time Wang Sen noticed, he saw that each of the four men had a flying sword stuck between their eyebrows.

"who!"

Wang Sen appeared above the Chen Mansion with endless anger on his face and his spiritual sense was completely released.

He didn't expect that there was someone hiding in the dark and attacking him.

The might of the Jindan strongman emanated, and all the cultivators in Raocheng, including ordinary people, felt the terrifying pressure.

These common people and cultivators did not know that this power belonged to a Jindan expert, and everyone looked up at the sky with horror.

In fear, he guessed the identity and origin of this powerful man.

After a while, Wang Sen's eyes locked on one direction.

"Want to run!"

Outside Raozhou City.

Chu Ning stopped and after using the Soul-Destroying Spear to launch a sneak attack and kill four Foundation Establishment cultivators of Xuantian Sect, he immediately headed out of the city.

It’s not that I want to run away, but I don’t want the battlefield to spread into the city.

In his battle with Xuantian Sect's powerful Jindan master, even the slightest energy fluctuation could destroy Raozhou City.

Just like the fight between the two Jindan powerhouses in Wenjin City, the cultivators below the foundation building stage didn't even have a chance to dodge and were turned into dust.

This is the case even for monks, not to mention the many ordinary people in Raozhou City.

Chu Ning believes that he is not a saint and will not go out of his way to save people who have nothing to do with him, but he will not implicate irrelevant people because of his own reasons.

On the way to Raozhou City when seeing Liu Jianan off, he had already fully released his spiritual sense and knew clearly how many people from Xuantian Sect had come.

A powerful Jindan cultivator and six foundation-building cultivators.

Two foundation-building monks had been killed by him outside the city.

In order to deal with Wang Sen, he must first eliminate the four foundation-building cultivators of Xuantian Sect. Therefore, even when he saw Zhang Jinghe being besieged, he did not take action immediately. He wanted to wait for an opportunity.

Waiting for Wang Sen's opportunity to take action.

Wang Sen is a Jindan expert. Although his spiritual awareness is stronger than Wang Sen's, if he takes action, Wang Sen will definitely notice it first.

Only if Wang Sen takes action and he attacks at the same time can his attack be effective.

And now his goal has been achieved.

"Chun Ning?"

Wang Sen chased Chu Ning out of the city and his pupils shrank when he saw Chu Ning stop.

He guessed that the assassin might be related to Chu Ning, but he didn't expect it to be Chu Ning himself.

Seeing Chu Ning, Wang Sen's eyes flashed with a ruthless look: "What you just used was the Soul-Destroying Thorn. It turned out that you killed Zheng Qingmin."

If it weren’t for Chu Ning, he wouldn’t have thought of the Soul-Destroying Spear.

However, when he saw Chu Ning at this moment, and thought of the secret Soul-Destroying Spear that the Young Sect Master had given to Zheng Qingmin, Wang Sen suddenly realized.

The situation of the four foundation-building disciples in the sect just now was clearly that their souls were attacked, and everything matched the characteristics of the Soul-Destroying Thorn.

Chu Ning did not respond to Wang Sen's words because there was no need.

"You are able to cultivate the Soul-Exterminating Thorn. No wonder your spiritual consciousness can evade my pursuit. But do you think that just because your spiritual consciousness is strong, you can compete with me?"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Wang Sen looked at Chu Ning with a sneer. The gap between a Jindan powerhouse and a foundation-building powerhouse is more than just spiritual awareness.

Chu Ning still did not respond. The next moment, he moved forward and turned into a shadow and disappeared on the spot.

"Want to run?"

Wang Sen took a step forward, and his figure appeared behind Chu Ning, a thousand meters away. Seeing this, Chu Ning swallowed a pill, and the whole person turned into a residual shadow and disappeared again.

Looking at the direction Chu Ning fled, Wang Sen followed slowly behind him, like a cat playing with a mouse.

He was not afraid that Chu Ning would escape because Chu Ning had been locked by his spiritual sense.

The more pills Chu Ning swallowed to replenish his spiritual power for escape, the less spiritual power he would have in his body. By that time, he would be able to deal with Chu Ning easily.

Raozhou, Qingzhou, Qizhou...

In an hour, Chu Ning had already crossed the borders of three states, but he knew that Wang Sen was right behind him. The reason he did not catch up with him was that he wanted to exhaust the spiritual power in his body.

But with the abundant spiritual spring in his body, this distance was nothing. The so-called swallowing of the elixir was just an illusion he created.

He wanted to lead Wang Sen to a place far away from Raozhou, so that even if Xuantian Sect investigated, they would not suspect him, but would only think that Wang Sen met other Jindan powerhouses.

"This distance is already good enough."

Chu Ning stopped, and the next moment Wang Sen's figure appeared a hundred meters behind him.

"Why don't you run away?"

Wang Sen looked at Chu Ning with a teasing look on his face. In his opinion, Chu Ning didn't run because he knew he couldn't escape and had given up on escaping.

"Because this is a good place for burial."

"Bury?" Wang Sen was stunned, then said: "Chu Ning, do you think I will kill you? Don't worry, I won't kill you. You won't even have the chance to die here."

"I never said I was going to be buried there. Don't you think this place is suitable for you?"

Chu Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, but Wang Sen seemed to have heard a huge joke and laughed wildly: "I really don't know where you get your confidence from."

"You don't need to know where my confidence comes from, but I do have a question that I wonder if you can answer."

"explain."

Wang Sen didn't rush to take action because he also wanted to hear something from Chu Ning.

"Why does Xuantian Sect have to find out the murderer of Zheng Qingmin? I don't think your young sect leader really has any feelings for Zheng Qingmin."

“If there really was affection, when the Lord of Shanyang City failed in his attempt to reach the Nascent Soul stage, your Young Sect Leader should have suggested that the Zheng Family think of a way to break the impasse.”

Wang Sen pondered after hearing Chu Ning's words. Chu Ning continued, "Your Excellency believes that I cannot escape from you, so satisfying one of my doubts is nothing, right? Or are you not sure that you can catch me?"

"No need to provoke me."

Wang Sen's eyes were shining: "It doesn't matter if I tell you. My Xuantian Sect doesn't care about Zheng Qingmin's life or death, but you took something you shouldn't have taken."

Chu Ning was not surprised. Just as he imagined, it was indeed related to the jade slip.

"I see. You came here for that jade slip. I haven't seen that jade slip. If I return that jade slip to your clan, can the grudge between you and me be resolved?"

"I can't make the decision on this matter, but if you take out the jade slip, I can plead for you then."

Wang Sen listened to Chu Ning's words, a strange look flashed in his eyes. Chu Ning nodded and took out a storage bag from his storage bag.

"This is Zheng Qingmin's storage bag. All of Zheng Qingmin's things are in it."

Chu Ning threw the storage bag towards Wang Sen. Wang Sen grabbed it with his left hand and the storage bag flew towards him. But at the same time, Wang Sen pressed his right hand in the air, and a giant hand shadow appeared above Chu Ning's head and smashed down towards him.

"You want the things, and I want the people too!"

There was a cold look in Wang Sen's eyes. Chu Ning must die.

However, facing the falling giant hand, there was no panic on Chu Ning's face. He formed a seal with his right hand, and the storage bag flying towards Wang Sen suddenly exploded.

Boom! The terrifying lightning exploded, instantly filling the entire area.

Wang Sen's face changed, and he retreated. He waved his left hand several times and set up several spiritual power shields.

Bang, bang, bang! These spiritual energy shields collapsed before they lasted a breath under the terrifying spiritual power of thunder, and the lightning enveloped Wang Sen.

After three breaths, the lightning dissipated.

"Chu Ning, I want you to live a life worse than death!"

Wang Sen walked out from the lightning. He no longer looked as elegant as before, and his clothes were torn in many places.

For a powerful Jindan cultivator, having his clothes torn by a foundation-building cultivator is an extremely embarrassing thing.

Even though the lightning did not cause any substantial harm to him.

Chu Ning, who had retreated a thousand meters at this moment, looked at Wang Sen with a look of regret on his face. Although he knew that a Thunder Pearl could not cause too much damage to a Jindan powerhouse, he was still a little disappointed when he saw that Wang Sen only had torn clothes.

It seems that I can only use my last trump card.

He reached into his storage bag, took out a pill, and swallowed it without hesitation.

This is his real trump card against Wang Sen.

As the pill entered his mouth, Chu Ning's spiritual power began to grow crazily. These spiritual powers were like a tide, sweeping out from Chu Ning's body to the surroundings in waves.

The terrifying degree of growth in spiritual power made Wang Sen have a bad feeling. Chu Ning's spiritual power was almost approaching the Golden Core Realm.

"So this is your true honor guard. I will not give you this opportunity."

Wang Sen didn’t know what medicine Chu Ning was taking, but he would not give Chu Ning the opportunity to continue to grow his spiritual power.

"Congeal!"

Wang Sen shouted softly, and the spiritual energy around Chu Ning twisted directly, forming a spiritual energy vortex in an instant.

"burst."

With the sound of "explosion", the vortex of spiritual energy exploded around Chu Ning.

Chu Ning's expression remained unchanged. He swung his right hand and a talisman appeared in front of him. The talisman turned into a spiritual shield, blocking the explosion of spiritual energy.

The next moment after throwing out the talisman, Chu Ning waved his right hand repeatedly, and rays of light shot out from his hand.

They are all spiritual weapons and talismans, and they are all defensive.

When Wang Sen saw these spiritual weapons and talismans, his pupils shrank.

So many defensive spiritual weapons...

Although they are all spiritual weapons used by foundation-building cultivators, even if he is a Jindan cultivator, he does not have so many defensive spiritual weapons.

"You are Zhang Bairen!"

Wang Sen thought of a possibility.

Zhang Bairen and Chu Ning are the same person.

Back then in Wen Jinshan, Zhang Bairen used the Thunder Pearl and killed many foundation-building monks and took away their storage bags.

Chu Ning also has the Thunder Pearl and so many spiritual weapons, and he is also a disciple of Wenjin Sect. When he asked Jinshan about the opportunity, Chu Ning did not show up, which was a suspicious thing.

As for why he didn't suspect Chu Ning was Yao Qihua, it was because he had come into contact with Yao Qihua and didn't find any problems.

Chu Ning did not respond to Wang Sen's words. He needed these defensive spiritual weapons to buy himself some time.

"You think you can stop me with these rags? That's wishful thinking."

Wang Sen didn't get a response from Chu Ning. He snorted coldly, made seals with his hands, and shouted, "Explode, explode, explode!"

With every explosion, a spiritual weapon on Chu Ning's body lost its luster and fell to the ground.

Dozens of spiritual weapons and talismans only bought Chu Ning a dozen breaths of time.

"Chun Ning, it's over!"

Wang Sen looked at Chu Ning with a cold gaze, and Chu Ning remained silent.

"Whatever you want to do, you don't have the chance anymore."

With a finger and a nod, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth around Chu Ning was instantly sucked away and turned into a giant palm.

The giant palm clapped down.

The corners of Wang Sen's mouth curled up, but the next moment, his smile froze.

A purple cloud appeared above Chu Ning's head.

A green light suddenly appeared in the purple cloud, and countless green hairs shot out from the purple cloud and headed towards the giant palm above.

The black hair was tied onto the giant palm, densely packed together, instantly filling up the entire palm.

The next moment, the giant palm dissipated in the air.

At the same time, the purple cloud quickly moved towards Wang Sen.

Wang Sen waved his hand, and terrifying energy spread from his body, but failed to block the purple cloud.

"Sapphire Secret Cloud?"

Seeing that the purple cloud was not dispersed by him, but enveloped him instead, Wang Sen's face darkened and he sneered, "Even if it is the Blue Gold Secret Cloud, it depends on whose hands it is."
