Just as the grand event at the Lin Mansion ended, thousands of miles west of Wanyue City was Black Rock City.
A dusty young man appeared outside the tall city gate.
This young man was none other than Nangong Jian.
"Black Rock City! I, Nangong Jian, am back again."
Nangong Jian's face was gloomy, and his eyes revealed deep hatred. He stood there and took several deep breaths before he barely suppressed the boiling murderous intent.
He walked over slowly, mixed in the queue entering the city, paid the entrance fee honestly, and entered Black Rock City.
The city is very lively, much more prosperous than Wanyue City, with people coming and going on the streets.
Nangong Jian was familiar with the route and walked along the main street, turning several streets and arriving at the city center.
A huge mansion appeared before his eyes. Its high walls were made entirely of black rocks, exuding a cold and solid aura.
Rows of guards in shining helmets and armor patrolled around.
Above the gate of the mansion, the three large characters "City Lord's Mansion" shone with golden light.
Black Rock City is the territory of the Rising Sun Dynasty. It is not a big city and is ranked lower-middle in the dynasty, so it does not have a very strong protective force.
City Lord Zhao Ting, ninth level of Condensation Dan Realm!
This information has long been deeply imprinted in Nangong Jian's mind, and he dreams of killing the other party!
After he mastered the sacred weapon Zixiao Sword, he had this idea. Although his cultivation was not as good as his opponent's, he was confident that he could kill with one strike.
This is the confidence that the holy weapon brings him. Even if most of its power is sealed by Senior Lin, it is definitely not something that a mere Condensation Pill Realm can withstand.
He must take revenge, and whoever stands in his way will die!
Nangong Jian stayed in an inn not far from the City Lord's Mansion. He chose a room facing the street and could see the gate of the City Lord's Mansion from the window.
Zhao Ting has many guards, and the mansion is heavily guarded. Breaking in by force is a bit too risky, so it would be easier to wait for the other party to come out.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye, and on the morning of the third day, the opportunity finally came.
The gate of the City Lord's Mansion opened, and more than a dozen guards rushed out in two teams. They were all equipped with uniform long swords, looking aggressive and alert in all directions.
Then a luxurious sedan was carried out by four big men, surrounded by warriors.
Needless to say, this scene must be about the city lord Zhao Ting traveling.
Murderous intent flashed in Nangong Jian's eyes. He covered his face with a black cloth and jumped out of the window.
"Who is it? Stop!"
The guards immediately noticed something was wrong and surrounded the sedan chair, with their swords drawn and pointing forward.
Nangong Jian ignored him completely. He stepped forward step by step, stretched out his right hand, a light flashed, the Zixiao Sword appeared, and the powerful sword energy rushed straight into the sky!
"There's an assassin! Protect the city lord!"
Someone yelled at the top of his lungs.
But it's too late.
call out--
Nangong Jian waved the Zixiao Sword, the sword energy surged and reached a hundred feet, and he slashed in the air with the sword!
Boom!
There was a deafening roar, the earth shook, a huge crack appeared on the ground, and where the sword energy pointed, broken limbs and arms flew all over the sky, and shrill screams echoed throughout the street.
The sedan chair was also split into two by the sword energy, and blood burst out from inside. The two halves of the corpse fell out, with fat heads and big ears, and their eyes were wide open, and they died with their eyes open.
It was Zhao Ting!
Zhao Ting, the Lord of Black Rock City, was killed instantly by a single sword strike in the street!
Except for the guard who fell to the ground and screamed in pain, everyone was stunned.
Nangong Jian retreated after completing his mission and quickly shot out of the city.
"The city lord was killed!"
"Come here! Capture the assassin!"
…
There was chaos at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
Nangong Jian exerted his speed to the extreme, flying in the air a hundred feet in an instant. Seeing the city gate in sight, he couldn't help but show joy.
"Boy! Where are you running to!"
Suddenly, he heard roars and sounds of breaking air behind him. He looked back and saw three figures rushing towards him at lightning speed, faster than him, and in an instant they were within ten feet of him.
Xuanguan Realm!
Nangong Jian's heart sank, and without thinking too much, he swung his sword back.
The sword energy split the sky, killing three people with one sword, and six and a half corpses fell to the ground with howls.
So strong?
Nangong Jian was stunned for a moment. He looked at the Zixiao Sword in his hand and felt ecstatic.
It is worthy of being a holy weapon, even a Xuanguan realm cultivator would find it difficult to withstand a single blow!
So strong!
Nangong Jian's blood boiled.
"What grade of profound weapon is this? How could it be so powerful?"
Another surprised voice was heard from the distance, and a middle-aged man in black was seen approaching rapidly. He stared at the Zixiao Sword with greed in his eyes.
"die!"
Nangong Jian swung his sword again, the sword energy was like a rainbow, tearing the sky and splitting the earth!
But the result was not as he expected. The man in black dodged away with a flash.
Nangong Jian's heart skipped a beat.
"What a rare sword! It's mine!"
The man in black laughed excitedly. He stretched out his hand and grabbed, and the void shook!
Nangong Jian suddenly felt his body sink, and he was fixed in place by an invisible force. The Zixiao sword in his hand also trembled violently, and it seemed to fly out of his hand. The black cloth on his face broke into several pieces with a hissing sound and fell off.
"Earth Gang Realm!"
Nangong Jian was shocked and realized that something was wrong. He no longer cared about his appearance being exposed. He only felt a great terror coming upon him, and the blood in his body was about to solidify!
"Huh? I didn't expect you to be capable."
The man in black was a little surprised that he failed to capture the Zixiao Sword from the air. He flashed and continued to move closer, reaching out to grab the Zixiao Sword.
"Break it for me!"
Nangong Jian shouted loudly and swung the Zixiao Sword with all his strength, forcefully splitting the invisible force that blocked the four directions. The sword energy surged and slashed at the right arm of the man in black.
"Humph! How dare you be so presumptuous at the Condensation Pill Stage!"
The man in black sneered. He did not dodge or evade. The powerful true energy covered his palms, forming a translucent protective shield visible to the naked eye, and he grabbed the sword directly.
"Boy! Today I will let you see the difference between the Condensation Realm and the Earthly Gang Realm. Feel the fear!"
The man in black had a sinister smile on his face, but the smile froze the next second, and fear appeared in his eyes.
laugh!
When the palm and sword touched, the energy overflowed and made a sharp cutting sound!
The Zixiao Sword was extremely sharp and unstoppable. The Qi protective shield was unable to block it for even a moment and was broken by the sword energy.
Immediately afterwards, blood rain splattered, and half of the palm flew out horizontally. Before it landed on the ground, it was turned into a ball of blood mist by the sword energy!
"ah--"
The man in black screamed and retreated violently. He was shocked and angry. He slapped forward with his left palm, and the force penetrated the air. The powerful force hit the Zixiao Sword, causing Nangong Jian to spit blood and fall out.
"This person is too strong, we can't beat him!"
Nangong Jian got up in a panic, not daring to delay for a moment. While the other party was injured and had not yet reacted, he turned around and fled!
“Damn it!”
The man in black roared angrily. He was so careless that half of his palm was cut off by a junior in the Nascent Soul Realm. He was almost mad with anger.
"You bastard! I'm going to cut you into pieces!"
"There is no way for you to escape, whether in heaven or on earth!"
The man in black turned into a stream of light and chased after him at a very fast speed. His angry roar could be heard from far away, rumbling and echoing through the heavens and the earth!
