RPAGF Chapter 14: The People of the Three Rivers Alliance!
Chapter 14: The People of the Three Rivers Alliance!
"Mid-stage seventh rank!"
Xiao Bieli opened his eyes, feeling that the true energy within his body had become even more mellow, and nodded in satisfaction.
Fortunately, there is a system panel; otherwise, it would have taken him forever to get to this point by himself through hard work.
"Damn it!"
"Those thieves went towards the boss's room!"
"Stop them quickly!"
Just at this time,
Shouts from the depths of the mountain stronghold echoed, followed by sounds of fighting.
"Upgrade the Cloud Ladder to its maximum level!"
Xiao Bieli spoke softly.
Although Hu Xiong is currently being held back by Zhang Zhong, both Hu Xiong and Zhang Zhong are sixth-rank experts, and Zhang Zhong may not be able to win. He no longer has enough experience points to advance to the next minor realm. He has already reached the perfected Cloud Ladder Leap. If Hu Xiong were to return, Zhang Zhong would have a better chance of escaping.
Countless experiences from cultivating the Cloud Ladder Technique flooded Xiao Bieli's mind, and his feet felt burning hot.
[Ladder to the Clouds (Perfect)]
On the panel, the proficiency of the Cloud Ladder Leap was at its maximum, and a new attribute had been added to his attribute panel:
【武功：易筋经（15/100）、狂风刀法（圆满）、铁布衫（圆满）、梯云纵（圆满）……五虎断门刀（5/100）、大力金刚指5/100）、招式入微、铜皮、身轻如燕。】
[Experience value: 330]
Originally, he had gained a small improvement in his cultivation level and perfected the Ladder Cloud Leap Technique on this trip, so the gains were not small. However, now that Hu Xiong, the biggest threat to him from Tianlang Village, was entangled, it would be a good opportunity if there were any good things in Tianlang Village.
If things don't go well, he should just back out on his own.
With the Perfect Cloud Ladder in hand, he felt more confident.
As the sounds of fighting fading from the depths of the mountain stronghold grew fainter, Xiao Bieli no longer hesitated and headed deeper into the stronghold.
They hadn't gone very far yet.
Swish!
A blade flashed from around the corner, slicing across Xiao Bieli's lower body.
Xiao Bieli's expression remained unchanged; he drew his long sword, striking first despite being behind.
clang!
The two knives clashed, sparks flying.
"what?"
The attacker let out a soft cry. He had been waiting there for quite some time, waiting for his prey to enter his kill range before launching his sneak attack.
Unexpectedly, it was blocked.
"It's you?"
Why did you attack me?
Xiao Bieli frowned slightly.
The man in front of them was the same black-clad man who had asked Zhu Shou in the Mountain God Temple if he could bring back the heads of the people from Tianlang Village who had a bounty to be paid for, and collect the reward at the Zhenwu Hall.
"Kid, you've got some skills. I was wrong about you!"
"Hehe, you were quite generous in Dongjiang County before, buying information from Jiangshan Pavilion to do bounty missions. If we could capture you, the returns would be much greater than the silver offered by the Ma family!"
The middle-aged man in black shook his head, his eyes filled with wariness, and slowly retreated.
Since the sneak attack failed to kill Shen Lang, a direct confrontation might not be enough either. It's better not to waste time. We can wait until we return to Dongjiang County, find some familiar faces, and then take action.
If he had known Shen Lang would come, he would have brought one or two helpers with him.
"You think you can just leave after launching a sneak attack?"
Xiao Bieli sneered. "Wealth should not be flaunted. They're after the money on him!"
Ghostwriters are people who live on the edge, so don't expect them to have high moral standards.
He stomped his foot hard on the ground.
boom!
He charged toward the middle-aged man in black like an arrow released from a bow.
"You're both at the seventh rank, I advise you to stop now, otherwise..."
Before the middle-aged man in black could finish speaking, he was overwhelmed by a barrage of flashing blades.
"you……!"
He roared, and his aura suddenly intensified. He pushed his true energy to its limit, and the long sword in his hand was covered with true energy, like a stormy curtain, dancing with impenetrable force.
Dangdang Dangdang!
In an instant, the blades clashed.
As the blades clashed, a tremendous force struck, causing the man in black to feel a sharp pain in his right hand holding the knife. He regretted his actions and hastily retreated.
"Damn it!"
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw Shen Lang's longsword slashing down with an unpredictable arc. Left with no choice, he stopped and blocked with his own longsword.
clang!
There was a crisp sound.
The long knife in the middle-aged man's hand snapped in two with a crack.
"Rare..."
Before he could even utter a word of pleading, the middle-aged man in black was shot headfirst into the air.
[Experience +1000!]
Xiao Bieli searched the corpse for a while, found three hundred taels of silver notes and some loose silver, and then headed deeper into Tianlang Village.
Deep inside the village, there weren't many corpses.
Even the sounds of fighting had almost disappeared when, just as Xiao Bieli was moving forward, several loud shouts suddenly came from not far away:
"Damn it!"
"This is a trap; there are still experts within the Sky Wolf Stronghold!"
"It's Hu Juexian from the Sanjiang League! Let's go!"
"..."
Exclamations of surprise rang out.
Xiao Bieli could vaguely make out that one or two sentences were shouted out by Zhu Shou.
In this world, it's not necessarily true that a mid-stage seventh-rank martial artist is stronger than an early-stage seventh-rank martial artist.
Before the Ren and Du meridians are opened, it is all about accumulating true qi.
Some people have profound skills, but their techniques are not as good as those of people with weaker internal strength. In a fight, the outcome is uncertain.
Only by opening up the Ren and Du meridians and entering the sixth rank can one transform the internal energy from acquired to innate true qi, greatly increasing the destructive power of the true qi when it leaves the body.
Along the way, he had come to know Zhu Shou to some extent. Zhu Shou should be a peak seventh-grade expert who had opened up the six extraordinary meridians. Although he had never seen Zhu Shou make a move, judging from everyone's attitude towards Zhu Shou, Zhu Shou's true strength should not be weak.
He could hear the panic in Zhu Shou's voice.
"Is Hu Juexian of the Sanjiang League very strong?"
"Could it be a sixth-rank expert?"
"If that's true, even Zhang Zhong, the 'Primordial Hand,' is in danger!"
Although he had never heard of Hu Juexian, it did not prevent Xiao Bieli from having thoughts of retiring.
This time, I've gained quite a lot. All I need to do now is follow the Zhenwu Hall's bounty missions step by step. Once I reach the sixth rank, I'll go back to Lechun County to take revenge. Whether it's Xiao Fusheng or the Changhe Gang, I'll crush them all.
Let's focus on development first.
With this thought in mind, he gathered his inner strength and unleashed the Cloud Ladder technique, rushing down the mountain.
Just now, he was only a little over a hundred meters away from Zhu Shou and the others, and now Xiao Bieli could already hear the sound of something cutting through the air behind him.
He turned his head and saw a middle-aged man in his late thirties holding a long sword, slashing out with it.
Sword light!
A dazzling sword light, carrying an intense chill, ripped off the roof tiles, which then transformed into countless hidden weapons that hurtled towards the fleeing person.
True Qi leaves the body!
Xiao Bieli was shocked; he really was a sixth-rank expert!
The Sanjiang Alliance is a powerful force in Linshui County, yet there are experts from the Sanjiang Alliance in Tianlang Village.
Could it be that the constant conflict between the Twelve Linked Forts and the Three Rivers Alliance during this period was because the Three Rivers Alliance wanted to enter Dongjiang County?
There was no time to think it through.
"what!"
"Spare my life..."
Then, screams reached Xiao Bieli's ears.
The three seventh-rank experts I had seen before crushed more than a dozen pieces of tile, but they were still shaken by the broken tiles that carried innate true energy, causing them to vomit blood, suffer serious injuries, and fall to the ground.
Not only these three, but also Ma Rufeng, the head of the Ma family, and the remaining two seventh-rank experts were injured by the shattered tiles, with blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. However, their injuries were not so severe, and they were able to escape.
"Escape separately!"
"Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to survive!"
Zhu Shou roared.
Upon hearing this, the remaining people all fled in different directions.
They couldn't stop a sixth-rank expert, and the only way to survive was to flee in different directions.
As for who this sixth-rank expert was chasing, well, that's just bad luck.
Hu Juexian looked at the six or seven figures scattering and fleeing, and shouted to the experts of the Three Rivers Alliance behind him:
"What are you all standing there for? Go after them!"
"These people are all injured and can't have gone far. We must bring them all back!"
