Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 469 A real madman!
The policemen from the nearby detective agency had their eyes wide open.

They stared in amazement at their usually majestic and superior second-in-command Jin Jinliang, who was now being held in the hands of Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi like a chick. Each of them seemed to be under a spell of immobilization, standing still with horror and disbelief on their faces.

Their legs trembled slightly, and the weapons in their hands slipped unconsciously, making crisp clashes that sounded particularly harsh in the deadly atmosphere.

half an hour.

A guard bit his lips tightly, his face turned pale with fear and tension, and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

He mustered up all his courage, but that courage was like a candle in the wind, ready to go out at any moment.

He held up the trembling knife and shouted at the top of his voice:

"Save the master!"

"Come with me to rescue the master!"

His voice trembled with a hint of desperate determination.

As he said that, he raised his sword with unsteady steps and rushed towards Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi. The momentum of his charge seemed more like an attempt to give himself courage, rather than a real confidence in defeating the powerful enemy.

When the other bandits saw this, their eyes met with each other, and the messages in their eyes were self-evident, and they soon reached a consensus.

Without the slightest hesitation, they all whispered in unison:

"withdraw!"

Immediately afterwards, the bandits turned around and ran away without even looking back, as if there was a flood or a beast chasing them.

Their figures hurriedly shuttled through the streets, their footsteps hurried and chaotic.

Are you kidding? Even a master like Second Gear is no match for that weirdo. If these weaklings with mediocre strength go there, they are simply seeking their own death.

Especially when I think of my companions who died at the hands of that weirdo, each of them died in a miserable way, with broken limbs and blood all over the place, the bloody and horrific scene is chilling.

They don't want to end up in such a tragic situation.

The bandit who had just rushed out with a knife in hand, realized after running a few steps that his companions had already escaped. It was as if a basin of cold water was poured over him from head to toe, and he instantly woke up.

He hurriedly stopped, stumbled, and almost fell to the ground. His face was full of anger and astonishment, and he shouted loudly:
"You...how could you..."

Then his voice turned to pleading:
"Hey! Wait for me!"

The foreigner also changed his mind in an instant, turned around like a stray dog, turned around and ran away with his companions, and his figure quickly disappeared around the corner of the street.

It wasn't just the detectives from the police station who were shocked by this scene.

Even the Six Gates detectives who were blocking the roads outside turned pale after seeing this shocking turn of events.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with fear and shock.

Their leader nodded slightly and made the decision to retreat.

So, these detectives acted quickly, with hurried and panicked steps, and immediately chose to retreat.

They knew very well that the people who came this time were not as strong as those from the Investigation Bureau, and there was no way they could resist the terrifying war puppet Huang Xingzi who was as demonic as a god.

Their figures gradually faded away, leaving behind only empty streets and a tense atmosphere in the air.

It's not just them.

Even the Northern Forbidden Army that came to support nearby began to retreat after seeing the unimaginable outcome of the battle.

Fear was written all over the soldiers' faces. Their formations were no longer neat and their steps became disorderly.

The strength of a third-grade warrior is beyond the reach of ordinary constables and even ordinary soldiers.

In front of a third-grade warrior, the number of ordinary warriors has basically lost its meaning.

If one wants to deal with a third-grade warrior, only a large number of fourth-grade warriors can form an exquisite formation to be able to fight against him to a certain extent.

But this method is only applicable to ordinary third-grade warriors.

However, top-level warriors among the third rank, such as Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi, are obviously not included in this list.

If we want to solve the problem safely and securely, we have to wait for the arrival of our real experts.

Only when the third rank is against the third rank, this is the most effective way to deal with it.

The eyes of those warriors who were hiding were now shining with excitement, as if they saw the dawn in the darkness.

They emerged from their hiding places, calling out in low voices:

"Let's go now!"

"The people from the Six Gates, the Investigation Bureau, and the Imperial Guards have all retreated far away. They retreated so hastily, there will definitely be loopholes in the blockade!"

"Seize the opportunity and you can live tonight! If you miss the opportunity, you will all die!"

……

The warriors shouted and ran away, their figures moving quickly on the street like a group of wild beasts escaping from a cage.

Soon, the entire street became empty, leaving only a mess.

On the roof of Shuyu Tower.

Xi Rong's eyes were wide open, filled with surprise and shock, as if he had seen the most incredible thing in the world.

His lips trembled slightly, and he muttered to himself:

"how so……"

"Even a master like Jin Jinliang was... completely defeated like this. Who is that mysterious weirdo?!"

Perhaps for most people, they don’t know how strong Jin Jinliang is.

But Xi Rong is a warrior of the fourth rank, and also a commander of the Imperial Guards. His understanding of Jin Jinliang's strength is better than ninety percent of the people in this world.

There are also differences in the levels of the three realms.

A low-level third-rank expert can only be abused in front of a high-level third-rank expert.

And in the capital, there is naturally the largest number of third-grade warriors in the world.

There are only a few of the strongest third-grade warriors in the capital.

The third-rank warriors in the Northern and Southern Imperial Guards generally do not show up in public, and the strongest third-rank warriors known to the world are nothing more than the Four Famous Constables of the Six Gates and the Four Heads of the Detective Bureau.

According to what Xi Rong knew, the top tier among them were the four heads of the Criminal Investigation Bureau. After all, these were warriors directly commanded by the emperor, and they brought together the strongest third-grade masters in the world.

Even the third-rank warriors of the Northern and Southern Imperial Guards and the Four Famous Constables of the Six Gates are slightly inferior to him.

It can be said that Jin Jinliang's strength is second only to the big boss among the third-grade warriors in the entire capital.

But such a top master was beaten by a mysterious man who suddenly appeared today and was unable to fight back, like a dead dog.

This completely overturned everyone's cognition.

"This person might become famous in the capital!"

Xi Rong was shocked and couldn't help but sigh.

There are many hidden talents in the capital, and no one who can gain a foothold here is an ordinary person.

This mysterious man defeated Jin Jinliang, so he will shock the entire capital tonight!
The premise is... if he can survive tonight.

Where is this place? It's the capital!
This is where the most powerful masters in the world gather!
If someone comes and beats the emperor's dog, there will always be someone more powerful to avenge the emperor!

"Why hasn't he done anything yet?"

"Why haven't you killed Jin Jinliang yet?"

Xi Rong looked at Huang Xingzi, who was standing on the street, holding Jin Jinliang's war puppet, with a puzzled look on his face, his brows furrowed into a shape of "川".
"He also knows that he's bound to face a stronger opponent tonight, so he's leaving himself a way out?"

"Or perhaps he simply wanted to prove his strength by defeating Jin Jinliang, thereby gaining the opportunity to submit to the imperial court and serve it?"

"That's right. If you want to make a name for yourself in the capital, it's not enough to just rely on martial arts skills. You also have to learn how to behave like a human being!"

In Xi Rong's heart, he never believed that Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi would really dare to go on a killing spree.

Maybe he could kill some minions.

However, someone like Jin Jinliang, the second-in-command of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, must not be killed.

Killing him would be a disgrace to the Investigation Bureau and the Emperor!
If he stayed, he might even be appreciated by important figures in the capital.

At this time, Liang Jin, who was standing by, crossed his arms and said lightly:

"He hasn't killed that guy yet in order to lure out someone more powerful."

Upon hearing this, Xi Rong was stunned as if he had been hit by a heavy hammer.

Someone more powerful than a third-rank warrior?

Could it be...

Liang Jin continued:

"Look at him, holding that stick, which direction is he pointing to protest?"

Xi Rong's heart suddenly trembled, and it seemed as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

He looked over hastily, his eyes almost popping out.

I saw the war puppet Huang Xingzi standing on the street.

The building in front of him had long been razed to the ground, leaving only ruins, so that he could see the artificial lake in front of him and even the Taiye Lake further ahead.

Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi was holding the half-conscious Jin Jinliang, and the posture was pointing him towards Taiye Lake!

And on the other side of Taiye Lake is... the emperor's new residence!

"Boom!!!"

At this moment, Xi Rong's mind suddenly went blank, as if the whole world had stopped working at this moment.

His eyes were wide open due to excessive fear, and his eye sockets were almost bursting, as if they would jump out of their sockets at any time.

He stretched out his trembling hand and pointed in the direction of Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi. His voice became sharp and piercing due to extreme fear:
"He...he...he...is he really crazy?!"

"If you're not a lunatic, how dare you be so disrespectful?!"

"Where does he get the courage? Does he really think that with the strength of a third-rank cultivator, he can truly dominate the capital?"

Xi Rong's voice was filled with infinite fear.

Because what Zhan Gui Huang Xingzi did really scared him.

He didn't even dare to think about that kind of thing!

Liang Jin continued:
"Don't worry, he's not demonstrating to the emperor. The emperor can't see that far right now."

Xi Rong's heart just calmed down a little.

But Liang Jin's next words frightened him so much that his heart suddenly jumped up:
"In that new house, there is a peerless second-rank master." "He is Wang Jin, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department and the director of the Criminal Investigation Department."

"If we can lure him out and have a fight, then this scene will be truly exciting."

Xi Rong felt like his heart was about to jump out of his mouth.

The emperor is high above everyone else. To most people in this world, he is like a god whom they will only see once in their lifetime.

The emperor's power rarely directly affects most people.

But the factory owner is different!
His detective agency has minions all over the world, and they can fabricate charges and arrest people and put them in prison at any time.

In particular, in order to maintain the imperial power, he used bloody and cruel means, and the four big bosses under his command killed people like crazy.

People in this world fear the factory manager even more than they fear the emperor.

Xi Rong slowly turned his stiff neck and looked at Liang Jin in disbelief, his voice trembling slightly:
"He...does he want to die?"

"Does he really think he can beat the factory manager?"

"Do you know what level of expert the factory master is? He is the best expert in the palace!"

When Liang Jin heard this, a thoughtful expression appeared on his face and he rubbed his chin.

Then he nodded in approval:

"That's right, he probably can't beat the factory owner."

"But, it's not impossible to have some fun."

"It all depends on whether the factory owner will accept his challenge."

After hearing this, Xi Rong was speechless.

crazy……

If he wasn't crazy, how could he say such crazy things?
Have fun?

Playing will cost you your life!

Xi Rong twisted his stiff neck and continued to look at Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi on the street.

Zhan Kui Huang Xingzi was still holding Jin Jinliang and heading towards the new house.

I just don’t know if the factory manager in the new house already knows all this?
………………

the other side.

On a tall building.

Zhao Yiyi stared at the scene in the distance without blinking, describing everything she saw to the old woman.

Her voice trembled slightly due to excitement and nervousness, and her hands gestured unconsciously.

The old woman listened to Zhao Yiyi's words with one ear and listened carefully to the noise coming from afar with the other ear, her brows sometimes frowned and sometimes relaxed.

When she heard that Jin Jinliang had been defeated, she couldn't help but sigh with surprise on her face:
"This guy is really amazing. He can even defeat Jin Jinliang!"

"You should know that in the entire capital, there are probably no more than two slaps of someone who can defeat Jin Jinliang."

"Even for me, an old woman like me, when I still had my eyes, it would have taken a lot of effort to defeat Jin Jinliang. I couldn't do it as easily as him."

"Not to mention that I'm blind now. If I want to defeat Jin Jinliang now, I'm afraid I won't be able to do it without paying a price."

Zhao Yiyi had just started learning martial arts and didn't know much about the strength of various realms.

But she had just seen the fight between the war puppet Huang Xingzi and Jin Jinliang, which had destroyed an entire street, with buildings collapsing and dust flying everywhere.

This terrifying power has brought great shock to Zhao Yiyi.

It's like...

It’s like seeing a world on another level!
Now, after hearing the old woman's words, he couldn't help but exclaim:

"Grandma, you're so amazing!"

She looked at the old woman with an expression of admiration in her eyes.

Then, something unexpected happened at the scene.

Zhao Yiyi immediately picked up the war puppet Huang Xingzi and Jin Jinliang, and told the old woman everything about the direction of Taiye Lake.

After hearing this, the old woman's face showed a look of shock, and her mouth opened slightly, revealing her gums with few remaining teeth:

"Is this man a lunatic?"

"What is he trying to do? Provoke the Emperor? Or provoke the factory owner?"

"Even if he could kill Jin Jinliang, I'm still a decent old woman. I can tell he's only a third-rank warrior. How could he be so arrogant and provocative?"

"This is really strange. Where on earth did such a madman come from?"

When Zhao Yiyi heard this, he also looked curious, with a gleam of doubt in his eyes.

she asked:
"Mother-in-law, is the factory owner very powerful?"

When the old woman heard this, the wrinkles on her face deepened as if memories were brought back to her.

I only heard her say seriously:
"It's not amazing, it's... terrifying!"

A trace of fear appeared on her old face, and that fear was like a shadow, covering her face.

"When I met him six years ago, he was already unfathomable."

"Now, six years have passed, and it's unknown what level he has reached."

"I am afraid……"

Having said this, the old woman hesitated slightly, but still said nothing.

It seemed as if Zhao Yiyi didn't understand what she was trying to say, so it was useless for her to say anything.

Zhao Yiyi heard this and asked doubtfully:

"Mother-in-law, will the factory union accept this challenge?"

"Will he come out and fight that lunatic?"

The old woman laughed when she heard this, but her laughter was a little dry, as if she had heard some huge joke.

She smiled so hard that her mouth widened, revealing her gums, which had few remaining teeth.

"The factory owner is known as the Nine Thousand Year Old."

"He is high above, in power, and has long since transcended the mundane world."

"Would a man like this fight with a madman?"

"That madman, is he qualified?"

As the old woman spoke, she shook her head slightly, with a hint of sarcasm on her face, as if she was mocking Zhao Yiyi's question for being too naive.

At this moment, Zhao Yiyi suddenly exclaimed, and his eyes widened:
"Mother-in-law, that madman seems to be flying with Jin Jinliang in his arms."

"Hey! He flew towards the other side of Taiye Lake. Is he going to the new house to pick a fight with the factory owner?"

This time, the old woman had already heard the whistling sound that pierced the night sky without Zhao Yiyi saying anything.

This also made the old woman's laughter stop abruptly. A deep sense of disbelief appeared on her old face, and her eyes widened:

"What?! How dare he do this!"

"Mad man! Really a mad man!"

"A madman who is seeking death himself!!!"

"What does he want to do? Does he want to prove to the world that he dares to challenge authority by dying?"

"He's a rare third-grade warrior! He's not an insignificant person!"

"Only a madman would have such an idea and do such a thing!"

The old woman screamed, her voice echoing in the night sky.

She was conceited that if we talked about madness, she would definitely be among the top three people in the capital.

But tonight she finally saw what true madness was!
………………

Across the Taiye Lake.

new house.

In a beautiful five-story pavilion.

The skinny old man with a white face and no beard was still sitting on the chair made of golden nanmu wood on the terrace, with an upright posture and elegant temperament.

He picked up the teacup with his jade-knotted hands, drank the tea slowly and gracefully, and looked towards the center of the lake with interest in his half-closed almond-shaped eyes.

The Taiye Lake is pitch black at night, as if a huge piece of black silk is spread out on the ground, but only a pair of blood-red eyes are particularly eye-catching, like strange stars twinkling in the night sky.

That is the war puppet Huang Xingzi.

He was carrying Jin Jinliang across the Taiye Lake. His figure looked particularly tall in the moonlight, and it seemed he was coming towards this direction.

Facing such a fierce killer who was on his way, the old man still sat on the chair as steady as a rock, without any intention of dodging.

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a mysterious smile:

"interesting."

"This person's aura is similar to that of the seven swordsmen."

"It seems that they are a group of people."

The old man's eyes were full of interest. He held the teacup in his palms, using the temperature of the tea to warm his hands, but his eyes never left the figure on Taiye Lake.

The night breeze blew gently over Taiye Lake, ruffling the old man's clothes. A strand of white silver hair under the black gauze crown on his head was blown into disarray, floating in the night wind, adding a bit of vicissitudes of life.

"Ok?"

The old man suddenly turned his gaze and looked in another direction, and gently placed the teacup in his palm on the table.

"Couldn't he bear to come out and see?"

"Do you want to see me take action? Or do you want to see me laugh?"

"But I'm afraid he will be disappointed."

The old man smiled, with a hint of mystery in his smile, and then turned his gaze back to the figure flying on the surface of Taiye Lake.

"You, I'm afraid, will also disappear into the water like those seven swordsmen?"
