Chapter 449 A chilling murderous intent reveals the true nature of the scheme (Part 2)

In the main hall of the Shanyin County government office.

Gu She, or rather, Princess Jia'an of the Great Liang, wore a veil over her face. Her hand occasionally brushed against the ancient pine-patterned sword at her waist, and she felt slightly nervous.

This was not Princess Jia'an's first time facing an enemy, but the thought of possibly confronting a master of the Void Step technique made even her nervous.

However, the presence of Yu Qiang and Wu Zhiqi standing behind her brought Princess Jia'an a slight sense of reassurance. She had witnessed the strength of these two and knew what kind of effect the three of them would have if they joined forces.

Even so, the thought of Bai Chi Tian Ya's formidable reputation filled Gu She with an unbearable sense of unease.

Although the plan had been rehearsed several times, she still found it somewhat unbelievable.

"Alliance Leader Yu has arrived, Elder Leng has arrived."

Outside the yamen, soldiers dragged out their chants, which were actually standard formalities for cultivators. The connection between experts in the Rejuvenation Realm was like a lamp in the dark, impossible to hide from each other.

Yu Chen's aura was like a rising sun, while Leng Ancheng's was weaker.

The intelligence from the palace was indeed accurate; this leader of the Great River Alliance was truly a first-rate alchemy expert in the Central Plains.

"I am already fortunate to have your assistance, Fairy Wu and Master Yu. I never expected that you would give me such a surprise."

Yu Chen walked in from the lobby with a smile on his face, while Leng Ancheng followed behind him with a sullen expression.

"Who is this?"

"This is Fairy Mao. She and we are all Qi cultivators from the East China Sea. She heard that we had become disciples of the Alliance Leader to plan something big, so she came along. Now, Emperor Liang is tyrannical, Heaven is destroying the remnants of Liang, and the True Lord of Peace has emerged. This is a general trend that all cultivators in the world can see. If you follow it, you will live; if you go against it, you will perish. Even though we are on an island, we are no exception."

Wu Zhiqi was still dressed as a woman, muttering a lot of nonsense, but knowing that Gu She came from the upper class of Liang, he deliberately chose to say unpleasant things.

"Mao Yingning, a wandering cultivator from overseas, greets Alliance Leader Yu."

Gu She clasped her hands in a Taoist salute, and Yu Chen returned the gesture in kind.

“There are countless immortal mountains overseas. If everyone could recognize the general trend like Fairy Mao, what would be the problem if we couldn’t accomplish great things? Since you are all fellow cultivators, I will have someone build another reed hut next to your two huts as a temporary residence for Fellow Daoist Mao. Once Senior Baichi Tianya arrives, we will go and take Cizhou.”

Yu Chen had a smile on his face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"Thank you for your kind offer, Alliance Leader, but I would like to pay my respects to True Lord Taiping..."

"The True Lord is still resting. I think it would be better to meet him another day."

"I have a reason why I must see the True Lord."

Gu She insisted.

Yu Chen was puzzled and immediately became somewhat angry, but he still had a slight smile on his face.

"Damn it, why waste your breath on him? He's a dead man anyway."

A hoarse voice came from the mouth of the martial arts fairy from the East Sea, causing Yu Chen to turn his head.

Is this a method of transformation and alteration? What is its origin?
Jade Void Bone Forging Chapter, Supreme Heavenly Demon Transformation Technique, Primordial Annihilation Saint True Understanding of Life and Death...

Yu Chen's mind flashed through the names of various unique martial arts techniques in this world, as well as their corresponding characteristics.

With his extraordinary abilities, he had naturally already used his unique methods to detect the two people in front of him. This Martial Fairy was indeed female, while the Mr. Yu beside her followed the path of demonic body tempering. "Hahahaha, monkey, you finally couldn't hold back anymore."

Yu Qiang reached out and ripped open his shirt, revealing a muscular upper body like a Vajra. He brandished his blade, and a burst of fiery energy surged out, as if the entire Shanyin County government office had been engulfed in flames.

You have guts.

Yu Chen had already realized that the three were clearly assassins who had attacked together, so he immediately took action. A harmonious aura erupted from Yu Chen's body, turning the area six feet in front of him into a clean land.

It is the secret of White Deer Cave, the "Immovable Heart Seal" that can only be obtained by practicing the Immovable Heart Palm to an extremely high level. The Immovable Heart Palm was originally the first-class defensive divine power in White Deer Cave. When it is practiced to an extremely high level, it can generate an Immovable Heart Seal to suppress the whole body, just like the unique domain of a master of the Void Realm.

Now that Yu Chen has used this ultimate technique, his eyes are full of doubt.

Not all monks are the same.

Generally, the higher the level of a Taoist or Buddhist cultivator's supernatural abilities, the more impressive the spectacle they will display.

Even the most ordinary ninth-grade Xuanmen cultivators are not much different from ordinary people when they fight. However, once they reach the Rejuvenation Pill stage, they can change the landscape with every move they make.

Therefore, when experts from the Upper Mystic Sect clash, the distance between them may be around one or even ten miles.

The martial arts scholar is different. The martial arts scholar's cultivation is all in front of him. Although the ultimate goal is the same, the martial arts scholar is to achieve the same result by different paths. Ultimately, the goal is to achieve the powerful killing force of "being able to fight against a country within ten steps".

Therefore, Yu Chen did not mind meeting these three people in close proximity, because for ordinary Xuanmen cultivators, if a martial arts scholar of the same level were to get within ten steps of them, it would be no different from losing their lives.

From this perspective, these three assassins were really terrible.

Are they government officials, or are there other people behind them?

Yu Chen spread his hands out, and the Immovable Mind Seal firmly locked the surrounding天地元气 (heaven and earth energy), forming a forbidden zone that was difficult for external methods to penetrate.

The layers of demonic fire that Yu Qiang unleashed seemed to encounter an invisible layer of solid ice around him, instantly turning into nothingness.

"Take this!"

Wuzhiqi pulled out a steel rod from under his robe, the rod radiating a faint spiritual aura. He wielded the rod like a whirlwind, smashing it down directly from above Yu Chen's head.

The force of a single blow is no less than a thousand pounds.

Demonic cultivator?

Yu Chen lowered his waist and stood on his horse, throwing a straight punch upwards, actually using brute force to clash with Wu Zhiqi.

His martial arts skills were honed through countless trials at Bailudong, and were comparable to those of Wuzhiqi, who was empowered by the Eight-Nine Yuan Technique. Moreover, his punch just now incorporated the Earth Yuan Qi into his fist technique, making his fist intent as condensed as thick earth. In terms of hand gestures alone, he was far superior to Wuzhiqi.

As fists and clubs clashed, Wuzhiqi let out a roar, his robes shattering to pieces, revealing a dark iron armor underneath. The armor plates were ashen, with twisted demonic patterns faintly visible on them.

"When did the imperial court raise such monsters and demons? Aren't you afraid of being ridiculed by the world?"

Yu Chen let out a cold laugh.

The two assassins before him, one a demon cultivator and the other a malevolent cultivator, were not much different from the methods he had heard about the imperial court.

Just as they were talking, Leng Ancheng let out a shrill scream, his magical body dissipated, and transformed into countless black iron crows, which swept in like a storm.
