Xiaoxiao.

Zhang Zhen was prepared to lay low for the time being, so why did he suddenly make a 180-degree turn?

It turns out they received instructions from Penglou!

Kuang Zheng and his two companions broke into Penglou's branch in Xiubei County at night and wiped them out in one fell swoop.

Li Dezhi died before achieving his goal, and Wang Sheng passed away even earlier.

Even the once-prosperous and carefree Qingxian had his left ear kicked and smashed. You should know that he was a famous "handsome young man" in the martial arts world!

Wu Ren's kick was so brutal; the carefree "young master" was almost scared out of his wits.

Whether there will be functional impairment or whether it will become even "smaller" is hard to say.

From now on, he will definitely not be handsome anymore. Who has ever seen a "handsome guy" who is missing half an ear?

This is truly a case of a lifetime of illustrious reputation being ruined in an instant!

What can a gentleman endure and what cannot be endured?

Revenge is necessary; it is imperative.

After finally regaining his senses, Qingxian thought bitterly.

Wu Ren must be torn to pieces! Absolutely!

But relying solely on himself was definitely not enough, although it was unclear what had gotten into Wu Ren at the last moment.

But no matter what I do, I'm no match for them!

"Ugh! Damn it!" Qingxian slapped himself in anger.

Now, not only has his stronghold been destroyed, but even the Buddha statue that the poster repeatedly instructed him to protect has been lost.

The thought of that statue makes Qingxian's heart bleed; it was something he had painstakingly "picked up"!

Because of that abstract statue, Qingxian not only received praise from the landlord, but also obtained the long-coveted innate sword manual "One Yuan Sword Qi".

With this simplified musical score, his title as the leader of the Sword Sect was truly well-deserved.

Before we could even warm up these things, Wu Ren, that jinx, showed up.

'Didn't he die long ago in the wilderness?'

How did they suddenly appear? And in this godforsaken Xiubei County no less.

Truly, evil deeds can live on for a thousand years!

Come and come for repairs!

Couldn't you have come earlier or later? Why did it have to be at this exact moment?

Isn't this blatantly going against oneself?

OP, why not just take the Buddha statue away?

Why do we have to wait any longer?

Now look what happened! All that work gone wrong, wasn't it? All that effort for nothing!

The leisurely life after surviving the disaster is filled with constant complaints!

"Oh! What a worry! Oh! There's not a single one of them who's easy to deal with!" Qin Xian sighed incessantly.

No matter how worried or how much you complain, it won't help. In the end, the Buddha statue was lost during repairs.

If this matter isn't handled properly, that old bastard Huang He (the original poster) might really twist his own head off and use it as a football.

After wallowing in self-pity for a while, Qingxian knew she had to go and inform Huang He immediately.

If that old bastard finds out first, my life is really over!

With this thought in mind, he didn't dare to delay for a moment. He tossed the nanosphere in his hand, which instantly transformed into a helicopter. It flew rapidly towards the Yellow Crane Tower where Huang He was located.

The nanospheres are a product of the technology of Penglai Planet, where electronic technology is exceptionally advanced.

However, no traces can be seen on the surface of the planet.

There are no towering skyscrapers here, no cold cities of steel and concrete; even the capitals of the three great empires were all wooden structures made of mortise and tenon joints.

Reinforced concrete is too polluting and has no aesthetic appeal whatsoever.

To the inhabitants of Penglai Planet, the straight, unobstructed cement highways undoubtedly suppressed the vitality of the land.

It's like a giant scar that can't be healed for many years, glaringly pressing down on the planet.

Based on this, most of the buildings on Penglai Planet are portable and movable.

Permanent buildings are all of historical value or symbolic significance, such as various ancient buildings and the imperial capital of an empire.

Because of the common understanding among people, the technological development of Penglai Planet focuses on portability and intelligence.

Take the smart ball in Qingxian's hand, for example; it's practically an all-purpose ball.

Don't be fooled by its small size (about the size of a ping-pong ball); it's packed with high-tech features.

It is an essential lifelong companion for ordinary people on Penglai Planet.

It can transform into any form according to its owner's will, such as a house, a car, clothes, communication equipment, audio-visual equipment, etc.

It can be created as long as you can imagine it.

Therefore, as long as you possess nanospheres, you'll never need to build a house, buy clothes, buy a car, or anything else in your life...

It can change at will in every aspect of life, including clothing, food, housing, and transportation.

Therefore, permanent buildings are rare, whether in big cities or small mountain villages.

With nanospheres, everyone essentially carries around a mobile home.

Any equipment or item in the home can be changed at will.

Moreover, you can switch between mountain views and sea views at will.

Another peculiar phenomenon is that there are no paved roads on the surface of Penglai Planet, because the three great empires all have the same law: destroying the surface ecology is a serious crime!

If any ground hardening measures prevent the grass in the area from sprouting normally the following year, the entire family will be executed!

Because of these harsh laws, apart from some carriage roads and newly harvested fields, there is nothing else to be seen on Penglai Planet.

They have achieved true harmony between humanity and nature!

So what about people's travel?

It's very simple, nanospheres!

Nanospheres are the most convenient means of transportation, capable of transforming into various shapes at will. They can fly in the sky, swim in the water, run on the ground, and so on, all at will.

To truly allow everyone to balance poetry and distant horizons: 'Go when you want, stop when you want. Act spontaneously, and be content with whatever comes your way.'

In addition to these, nanospheres also have autonomous functions.

For example, it can provide information on all kinds of food and cooking, fashion and styling, scenic spots, and encyclopedic Q&A from around the world...

In short: it encompasses everything from astronomy to geography.

The moment it was created, it contained the most cutting-edge technology, the most comprehensive cultural knowledge, and the most basic moral principles of the Penglai planet.

It stores all knowledge and sets strict standards.

Each child is born with a nanosphere.

This nanosphere will be implanted into his body. From this moment on, the host will possess everything the nanosphere has to offer, and they will be inseparable from each other.

From then on, this nanosphere will accompany him throughout his life, undergoing upgrades and modifications to ensure that the host always has access to the most comprehensive knowledge of the planet.

In addition to the functions mentioned above, it will also automatically protect its owner.

When it is subjected to external damage, it will automatically activate protection mode and do its best to protect the host's life.

In addition to protecting its host, the nanosphere also has the ability to prevent harm to others. As long as the host has the motive to harm others, the nanosphere will activate the prevention mode.

This functionality is also reflected in traffic rules and everything else that fully protects the rights and interests of oneself and others.

There are no traffic lights on the planet Penglai. Yet there have never been any traffic accidents, which is one manifestation of the mechanism to prevent harm to others.

However, the planet Penglai is too large, so all of this only exists in places where the Empire's technology can support it. In remote areas like Xiubei County, nanospheres still only exist in the descriptions in books.

However, these advanced technologies are like children playing house to powerful figures like Qingxian.

Compared to these incredibly powerful figures, Penglai's current technology is still far too rudimentary.

Besides technology, the planet Penglai also possesses ancient martial arts.

Every ancient martial arts practitioner possesses incredible power; current technology is far too weak and extremely limiting in their eyes.

Not to mention ancient martial arts practitioners, even the soldiers of the three great empires look down on them.

They treat nanospheres as toys. They're fine with ordinary missions, but when it comes to fighting, they're more used to the knives and guns in their hands!

The reason why ancient martial arts practitioners lack enthusiasm for technology is not because they are conservative, but because they can do everything that nanospheres can do.

Therefore, it's somewhat of a double-edged sword.

Not everyone dislikes it; for example, Qingxian doesn't mind it, but he only treats it as a toy.

For example, when he returned to the Yellow Crane Tower this time, he could have flown through the air, but he insisted on using nanospheres.

For no other reason than pure fun.

The Yellow Crane Tower has stood over the Yellow River for over 10,000 years, and its towering brick and wood structure is one of the few permanent buildings on the planet.

Legend has it that it was built to suppress a strange beast in the river, while others say it was a place where immortals rested on cranes, and later generations built it to commemorate it.

Some say it was to inspect the online trolls; in short, there are many conflicting opinions and no consensus.

Ke Qingxian knew this wasn't for suppressing strange beasts, nor was it for a military parade. As for the immortal explanation, it was too fantastical and could be largely ruled out.

This place is the Yellow Crane Tower, one of the nine towers of Penglou, and it is the residence of the tower owner, Yellow Crane.

Due to the strict laws of the three great empires, the ability to "work hard" was not something that ordinary people could enjoy.

As the residence of Huang He, the master of the Nine Great Towers, Huanghe Tower is off-limits to unauthorized personnel.

The Yellow Crane Tower has nine stories, nine halls, and nine gardens, symbolizing the unity of all things.

Each of the nine main halls has its own unique features, but all of them are decorated with flying eaves and bracket sets, and are adorned with flying stars.

The corridors wind around the various halls, and the eaves soar high everywhere.

The nine gardens were built to prevent the corridors and pavilions connecting the various halls from becoming too monotonous, but the scenery in each garden is absolutely stunning.

It can be described as a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps. Every place is uniquely crafted and perfectly integrated with nature.

The terrain's elevation is cleverly utilized, and every landscape feature is a masterpiece.

They were truly each clinging to their own territory, scheming and fighting amongst themselves.

The cost of every aspect of the Yellow Crane Tower project, from materials and craftsmanship to the creation of its scenery, is astronomical.

The entire Yellow Crane Tower covers an area of ​​over 100,000 mu, with pavilions and towers scattered throughout, and waterside pavilions and artificial hills dotting the landscape.

Only unexpected, not impossible.

Huang He was a man who knew how to enjoy life; he made the Yellow Crane Tower even more luxurious than the Xianyang Palace.

With such a vast territory, the power behind it is self-evident.

Huang He happens to be one of the most powerful people on Penglai Planet.

Despite having visited countless times, Qingxian was still captivated by the beautiful scenery before her.

'So beautiful, truly so beautiful.'

It actually created a small-scale situation; they must have used a formation.

That's a big investment!

Create beautiful scenery with authenticity!

That's a huge investment, truly a huge investment.

He muttered to himself in a leisurely mood.

He followed the attendant through a winding and circuitous route, eventually arriving at the Yellow Crane Hall.

The Yellow Crane Hall is the highest hall in the Yellow Crane Tower and the most central palace within it.

It is the core of the entire Yellow Crane Tower and the palace that the Yellow Crane liked the most. He usually received guests and practiced his cultivation here.

Standing respectfully on the left side of the main hall, after about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, an elderly man with yellow hair and a youthful face came out.

His long yellow hair was tied high on his head with a jade hairpin, and his yellow hair at his temples and three long yellow beards were meticulously groomed.

The apricot-yellow brocade robe was densely embroidered with mountains, rivers, and clouds in gold thread, and the edges of the cloud-walking shoes on her feet revealed a dazzling golden color.

"...I escaped with my life on the line. Lord, you must do justice for me!" Qingxian cried, tears streaming down his face, recounting what had happened.

"Hmph! This is outrageous! I, Penglou, didn't even bother you, yet you turned around and destroyed my repair branch! This is intolerable! Men, order the leaders of the Blade Sect and the Halberd Sect to go to the repair station and kill that arrogant Wu Ren!" Huang He roared.

In an instant, the entire Yellow Crane Tower was mobilized, and a large number of experts began to head towards Xiubei.

Zhang Zhen also received orders, which led to the major change earlier.

Upon learning that Penglou had taken action, he felt confident that he was in charge again.

A large number of experts poured into Xiubei County, and the oppressive feeling of impending doom was terrifying.

These things naturally did not escape the eyes of Kuang Zheng and the others, but Wu Ren, who had gone mad with qi, could not be moved easily, and Kuang Zheng, who had to take care of him, could not leave him for even a moment.

But sitting idly by and waiting for death is not their style; Kuangzheng decided to use worldly forces.

Just as he was pondering his next move, someone suddenly reported that Wang Xiaorong was looking for him.

This left Kuang Zheng somewhat puzzled.

He naturally knew Wang Xiaorong; she was a clerk in the government office, and her father owned quite a bit of property in the repair shop.

Without a doubt, this person is one of Zhang Zhen's men. In Xiubei County, if you want to get ahead, you can forget about it without Zhang Zhen's approval.

Wang Xiaorong's father was able to make a name for himself in the repair business without Zhang Zhen's help.

He and Wang Xiaorong had only met a few times, and they had never had any interaction!

Just as I was wondering what was going on, the person was brought in.

The little girl had a bit of baby fat, but because of her well-proportioned figure, she was also tall.

In addition, he had a magnificent chest and delicate facial features.

Therefore, she looks very sunny and beautiful.

"Someone is trying to harm you, you'd better leave quickly! It will be too late if you wait any longer!" the little girl said anxiously as soon as she entered the door.

"Your father doesn't know you're here, does he?" Kuang Zheng didn't give a direct answer.

"Hmph! I am me, and my father is my father!" Wang Xiaorong said angrily.

"Why are you helping me?" Kuang Zheng asked curiously.

“I think you’re a good person, not like those bad guys!” Wang Xiaorong said.

"Oh? Hehe... Thank you!" Kuang Zheng said.

"Why aren't you leaving yet? It'll be too late if you don't leave soon." Seeing that the other person still wouldn't move, Wang Xiaorong said anxiously.

"Uh..." Just as she was about to speak, someone announced that Qin Shi was requesting an audience.

This not only corrected the situation, but even Wang Xiaorong's eyes were filled with doubt.

Wang Xiaorong felt not only confused but also annoyed that she had misjudged the person.

She snorted and walked away without looking back.

It's no wonder she acted this way; it's just that Qin Shi has a terrible reputation.

The girl was living a pretty good life, but driven by material desires, she took the initiative to throw herself into Zhang Zhen's arms.

The husband was driven to suicide.

Such a person should logically be Zhang Zhen's loyal follower, so why would he come here?

Just as I was wondering, Qin Shi walked in.

Without any pleasantries, he went straight to the point: "Zhang Zhen has gathered all the county's thugs, merchants, and gentry to besiege the county government tomorrow. Among them are his henchmen, determined to kill you. So you must flee for your life, and remember to take me with you. I'll be waiting for you at home; you can easily find my address by asking around."

After saying this incoherently, she left without looking back.

Kuang Zheng was left alone, bewildered in the wind...

Because all of this is so inexplicable.

"Wow! Zheng-ge'er's got quite the ladies' man!" Ying Yue said sourly as she came out from behind.

"Stop fooling around!" Kuang Zheng said.

"Isn't that right? Little girl, beautiful women are lining up to throw themselves at you. Humph!" Ying Yue said.

"Could it be that our plan has been leaked?" Kuang Zheng did not answer, but instead reflected on his plan.

"How is that possible? Those are the Imperial Uncle's direct descendants," Ying Yue said incredulously.

“Exactly, I also think it’s impossible,” Kuang Zheng said.

"But their behavior is so strange, isn't it? Wu Ren, what do you think?" Kuang Zheng said.

"I can't tell either, but I think the same as you, leaking it is impossible," Wu Ren said weakly.

"That's strange, it doesn't make sense!" The words of the two women made Kuang Zheng depressed.

“I know!” Ying Yue suddenly exclaimed.

"What??" Wu Ren and Kuang Zheng asked in unison.

Ying Yue said mysteriously, "A woman's intuition!"

"Thump!" "Thump!" The two of them collapsed in shock!
