"To exterminate them all? He'd better have the ability! I've seen plenty of people who think they're invincible just because they had a lucky encounter. They all ended up dying a miserable death in the streets."
Zheng Kaicheng looked around.
As the patriarch of the strongest family in Jiangcheng, he has always looked down on the old families in the capital city of Mocheng.
Those people only have their current power and resources because they rely on the legacy of their parents.
The Zheng family's strength was forged through real fighting after the catastrophe.
The expressions on everyone's faces varied.
Everyone thought this guy was just bragging.
Although Zhou Yi's identity was not publicly revealed, it was already a secret passed down by word of mouth among various families.
Caesar, the only player in the world who owns two accounts.
An existence that almost rules over all the gods.
"But with his current strength, how can we kill him?" asked Wei Guodong, the city lord of Demon City.
The emergence of an uncontrollable force within his territory greatly displeased him.
I've tried everything—sniping, poisoning, and assaulting—but nothing works.
It turns out that when you're strong enough, you really can do whatever you want.
Zheng Kaicheng chuckled.
"The man next to me is the Grand Protector of Longhu Mountain."
Everyone looked over.
I was startled.
Several people even stood up.
They only just discovered this peculiar living person now.
The man was about thirty years old and wore a sky-blue robe.
Her long white hair was casually draped over her shoulders, her eyebrows and eyes were exquisitely beautiful, and her facial features were smooth and three-dimensional, as if they had been carefully sculpted with a single stroke of a chisel. She seemed to be shrouded in an aura, exuding an otherworldly and ethereal air.
Everyone was filled with doubt and uncertainty.
Could it be teleportation or invisibility?
However, neither of these skills can be performed silently.
There are anti-invisibility items in the room; you can't pass through walls by teleporting.
After eliminating all possibilities, only one remains.
That means this person has been here for a long time, but for some reason, their brains subconsciously ignored it.
"Esteemed benefactors, my name is Zhang Lingyu, and I serve as the Grand Protector of Longhu Mountain."
Zhang Lingyu cupped her hands in greeting, her expression neither happy nor sad, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
"The Celestial Master's Mansion of Longhu Mountain?" Liang Qun, the head of the Liang family, exclaimed in surprise.
"The top-secret files of Bureau 749 record that someone once observed a Taoist priest from this sect undergoing tribulation."
Everyone frowned.
Isn't the Celestial Master's Mansion just an ordinary Taoist sect?
Why does it look like a cultivation sect?
Zheng Kaicheng laughed and said, "As you all probably know, enhanced individuals or superhumans already existed before the gods descended. It's just that for some reason, most of their skills are unusable. Crossing tribulations to cultivate immortality might be a bit of an exaggeration, but creating extraordinary phenomena is still possible."
Zhang Lingyu said calmly, "The Celestial Master's Mansion has been passed down for thousands of years. Now that the gods have descended, my master sent me out of the mountains to sweep away heretics and evil spirits throughout the world."
Liang Qun's eyes darted around. "I wonder what abilities this Taoist priest possesses? After all, our target is Zhou Yi, that guy is a killing machine, countless heroes have died under his blade, you have to show us some abilities before we'll believe you, right?"
Zhang Lingyu nodded slightly, stomped his foot, and a magic circle instantly lit up on the ground, with golden Taoist runes dripping from the sky like a gentle drizzle.
Someone reached out to touch it, only to find that the rune could pass through their body.
"A magic-forbidden zone; within this zone, no one else can use supernatural abilities."
The family heads present, including the bodyguards, suddenly felt their power drained.
"What? Do you need me to demonstrate how to kill enemies?" Zhang Lingyu slowly rotated his palm, which was then enveloped in purple electricity.
Everyone's hair stood on end, and an extreme sense of danger rose from the bottom of their hearts, as if they had returned to the scene when they were still ordinary people and encountered superhumans.
It was a deep sense of powerlessness.
Not only are they unable to use their skills, but even the energy within their bodies is completely suppressed.
However, Zhang Lingyu himself can still unleash his skills.
Even though everyone present was a big shot, fear still lingered in their eyes.
At this moment, I am at their mercy, like a fish on a chopping board.
If Zhang Lingyu had any wicked intentions, everyone present would die.
Zhang Lingyu smiled slightly and put away the magic array.
Everyone gasped for breath, breaking out in a cold sweat.
The feeling of losing power is terrifying.
For a moment, an eerie silence fell over the scene.
This is terrifying; this magic-suppressing area is terrifying.
Chang Manyu used a similar item when she ambushed Zhou Yi: an anti-magic shield that silenced all enemies and friends within the area.
The magic-suppressing domain only silences others, but it does not restrict Zhang Lingyu.
Zheng Kaicheng broke the silence with a hearty laugh.
"Does anyone have any further questions?"
Liang Qun took a deep breath. "Zhou Yi is perverse and indiscriminate in his killings. Such a person cannot be allowed to live. Now that alien races are invading and human civilization is in imminent danger, I firmly support Longhu Mountain in punishing evil and eliminating wickedness."
"agree!"
"Take down the Book of Changes and let light shine upon the land of the Dragon Kingdom once more!"
The bigwigs present all spoke up.
They saw hope—the hope of destroying the Book of Changes.
As long as they eliminate the I Ching, the world will still be under their control.
Zheng Kaicheng gestured for the room to quiet down before smiling faintly and saying, "Let's talk about the plan next, how do we find the Book of Changes?"
Liang Qun said, "Isn't Zhou Yi elusive? Then let's take over Xingchen Company. I don't believe he'll just stand by and watch his company be destroyed."
"We can also start with the employees of Starry Sky Company, win over some, suppress some, and eliminate some. There will always be a few that can be used by me."
“Our Xu family has planted many people in Xingchen Company, and those people can cooperate.”
