Chen Zhou guessed correctly. This longsword controlled by true qi would not change its moves when it encountered an obstacle. Just now, Chen Zhou had been dodging and had not given it any obstacles, so it could keep changing its moves, which made Chen Zhou unable to defend himself and forced him to retreat repeatedly.
Now that Chen Zhou has blocked the longsword, a small binding array eye instantly appears beneath Murong Qin's feet.
Murong Qin is most relaxed now, which is also when the small confinement formation is most likely to succeed.
Chen Zhou only needed the Minor Imprisonment Array to trap Murong Qin for a short time before he was confident he could quickly set up the Dragon Imprisonment Array. Once the Dragon Imprisonment Array was set up, Murong Qin would have no chance to cause any trouble.
Then they were left to Chen Zhou's attack.
"Minor Imprisonment Array!"
The minor confinement array activated instantly. Murong Qin was startled, but it was too late to react. The array had been successfully set up, and Murong Qin was temporarily trapped!
Chen Zhou succeeded. At that moment, Chen Zhou suddenly used force to knock the longsword away, and then began to quickly set up the Dragon-Trapping Formation.
"Is this a formation?" Murong Qin struggled for a while before realizing that he was actually standing on a formation.
That makes things easier. Murong Qin then launched a full-scale attack on the area beneath his feet.
Just as the small imprisonment array was about to be broken, Chen Zhou found the core of the Dragon Imprisonment Array.
"Clang clang clang!"
The minor confinement array shattered! The Dragon-Trapping Array appeared!
Just as Murong Qin broke through the minor binding array, a sudden surge of true energy tried to pull the longsword back into his hand, but as soon as the minor binding array shattered, the Dragon Imprisonment Array appeared.
The longsword clashed violently with the Dragon-Trapping Formation, producing a piercing impact sound, and the longsword was separated from Murong Qin.
Having lost control of his true energy, the longsword fell and landed on a rooftop beneath Murong Qin's feet.
"Now you can't break through, can you?" Chen Zhou said smugly.
The Dragon-Trapping Formation can trap someone no more than five levels higher than Chen Zhou for three minutes, which is enough time for Chen Zhou to do many things.
"Hmph! This broken formation can't hold me for long!" Murong Qin sneered, already secretly using his true energy to break the formation.
Murong Qin is only now beginning to be wary of Chen Zhou. This young man, whose name he doesn't even know, is actually a formation master!
As they spoke, Chen Zhou had already quietly placed a small array eye of the Crimson Dragon Array under Murong Qin's feet. Chen Zhou could set up the small Crimson Dragon Array at any time!
For some reason, every time Chen Zhou used the Crimson Dragon Formation, his true energy would turn completely crimson.
"This is the drawback of not having transformed the Crimson Dragon Formation into your secondary cultivation technique. Every time you use it, you treat it as your primary cultivation technique. This will damage your body. You should cultivate two primary cultivation techniques," Elder Ren replied after hearing Chen Zhou's mutterings in his mind.
"Then why don't you teach me how to make it a minor subject?" Chen Zhou said immediately.
"You didn't even ask me!" Old Ren said helplessly.
Crimson Dragon Formation (small formation), activate!
"Rumble..."
A vortex of fire appeared out of thin air beneath Murong Qin's feet, spewing hot air upwards due to the high temperature, with molten lava churning inside.
It seemed as if it was about to explode at any moment.
Chen Zhou didn't rush to activate the fireballs of the Crimson Dragon Formation's smaller array. Instead, he looked at Murong Qin with great interest.
"I have no grudge against you, why do you want to kill me?" Chen Zhou said, he had no intention of hurting Murong Qin.
"Hmph! My Murong family will never share the same sky with you!" Murong Jin retorted defiantly. It had only been a short while, but he had already started sweating, with fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
"Well, if that's the case, then there's nothing I can do about it," Chen Zhou muttered. He figured he was just a lazy bum trying to help others, and if they didn't appreciate it, there was nothing he could do.
One by one, fireballs the size of heads slowly emerged from the lava and shot towards Murong Qin.
Murong Qin was imprisoned by the Dragon-Trapping Formation and unable to move, so he could only confront the fireball head-on!
"Bang bang bang..."
At first, there was only one fireball, but soon four or five fireballs were launched simultaneously, heading towards Murong Qin. Murong Qin created a huge barrier of true energy around himself, blocking the fireballs' attack.
But with every second he managed to hold on, Murong Qin's body trembled more. He couldn't hold on any longer; the fireball's attack was simply too powerful, and Murong Qin couldn't withstand it at all.
Soon the barrier of true energy shattered, and fireballs struck Murong Qin's body directly, leaving him charred black.
When Chen Zhou looked at Murong Qin again, three minutes had passed. The Dragon Imprisonment Formation had disappeared. Murong Qin, who had been leaning against the Dragon Imprisonment Formation, lost his support and fell straight down like a kite without a string.
He fell heavily onto the roof.
He lost consciousness.
Chen Zhou deactivated both the Crimson Dragon Formation and the Imprisoning Dragon Formation, then walked to Murong Qin's side and checked his breathing; he was not dead.
Chen Zhou shook his head; it seemed his plan to buy horses in the South would have to be cancelled.
Now that he has offended the powerful Murong family, Chen Zhou will definitely be on the run in the Southern Kingdom.
This was something Chen Zhou never expected; he just wanted to live a quiet, carefree life!
Why do these strange things keep happening?
Chen Zhou sighed helplessly, then jumped off the roof and disappeared into the alley.
Chen Zhou had to find out about Peng Da Deng's situation; he couldn't let himself get into trouble because of him.
Chen Zhou did not want the Murong family to extend their anger to the Peng family.
Reappearing on the roof of the Peng family compound, Chen Zhou lay down tightly against the roof, looking at the rows of soldiers in purple armor standing throughout the entire Peng family compound and outside the main gate.
The Peng family was surrounded by soldiers from the Murong family.
Not only was there a small guard outside the gate, but all of the Peng family's courtyards were under the control of soldiers.
Chen Zhou quietly climbed onto the roof of the main room in the Peng family compound, and secretly opened the tiles, revealing the situation inside.
Peng Dadeng knelt in the hall, with an old man in purple sitting in front of him and a middle-aged man who looked somewhat like Peng Dadeng. Soldiers stood on both sides.
"Peng Dadeng! Do you plead guilty or not?!" the middle-aged man shouted angrily.
"I didn't do anything wrong? How can I plead guilty?"
