On top of that, Zhang Ruochen had another purpose for bringing out the Withered Wood Staff at this time, which could be done to strike the opponent and at the same time boost his side’s morale. It could be described as, killing two birds with one stone.
The mighty and renowned Ice Demon had been killed by the Grand Protector?
“Boom!”
The entire Quicksand Canyon’s Evil Dao cultivators were in complete sensation.
“The Great Protector is truly a man of God, even an existence like the Ice Demon is not even your opponent.”
“The Great Protector deserves to be a Great Protector, we can only look beyond our reach.”
“Haha! Since the Great Protector is here, today, who would dare to put words in our mouths to exterminate us?”
Originally, the Red Desire Star Envoy’s side had suffered from the assassination of the Hunters one after another, and had been hunted down by the Green Clothes Star Envoy and the Glazed Knight Commander, and their morale was low to the extreme.
Zhang Ruochen’s appearance not only knocked a group of Yeti warriors out of the fight, but also killed the mighty Ice Demon, instantly, it made everyone exuberant.
The Red Desire Star Envoy’s beautiful eyes looked at Zhang Ruochen above her, and an indescribable ripple unexpectedly rippled in her heart.
It had to be said that at this moment, Zhang Ruochen had already become the backbone of the Red Lust Star Envoy’s side, capable of calming the military and boosting morale. As soon as he appeared, all the Evil Dao cultivators, including the Red Lust Star Envoy, swept away their decline and became fervent.
Although the green-clothed Star Envoy used her powerful Sword Dao cultivation to break through the vortex of electricity and fire, the power of the lightning still struck the corners of her clothes, cuffs, and collar, and her entire body continued to emit black smoke, making her look quite wretched.
“A mere spiritual power master cannot reverse your defeat.”The green-clothed Star Envoy said in a cold voice.
The Red Lust Star Envoy immediately alerted Zhang Ruochen, saying, “Be careful, there are killers.”
Just as Zhang Ruochen appeared, the Hunter disappeared without a trace and hid.
The green-clothed Star Envoy smiled disdainfully, “Orion’s secret stealth technique is quite brilliant, no one can see him, even the spiritual power of a Spiritual Power Master cannot detect him. Hunter, kill this Grand Protector.”
Below, all the Evil Dao cultivators all knew how terrifying the Hunter was, thus, they were worried for Zhang Ruochen.
“Since that’s the case, I’ll come to meet the legendary Blood Cloud Sect’s number one killer.”
Zhang Ruochen smiled faintly.
Before the hunter had the chance to strike, Zhang Ruochen took the first step to find out where he was hiding, extended a palm, and pushed it forward. In the centre of his palm, a spherical lightning bolt was struck, splitting on the hunter’s body.
“Giggle!”
The hunter was struck by the spherical lightning, and his figure was instantly revealed.
In the hunter’s eyes, a hint of astonishment appeared, never expecting that someone would be able to detect his secret stealth technique. The power of the spherical lightning, although it failed to seriously injure the hunter, paralysed him slightly.
In just such a moment, Zhang Ruochen’s Wind Lightning Finger struck out, striking the hunter’s heart.
“Boom!”
A sound like a metal clash rang out, and the hunter’s heart, slightly dented and impacted by the Wind Thunder Finger, flew backwards as if it was an arrow that had left the strings, flying out backwards.
With a boom, the hunter’s body, impacted on top of the cliff wall behind him, leaving a rocky hole.
Zhang Ruochen looked at his fingers and felt some pain and numbness in his fingertips, that finger just now was as if it had struck on top of a block of iron.
The hunter must have a treasure such as a heart protector mirror, thus resisting Zhang Ruochen’s strike just now.
Seeing this scene, the crowd present, once again stunned, their jaws dropping to the ground, staring at Zhang Ruochen as if looking at a demon, feeling incredulous.
Everyone had already seen how terrifying the Hunter was earlier, simply like the God of Death, it was completely impossible to fight against him.
The Hunter’s assassination methods had almost caused the Red Desire Star Envoy to collapse.
However, how could Zhang Ruochen not surprise people when he sent the Hunter flying with just two moves?
No one believed their eyes, thinking that they had been blinded.
A Spiritual Power Master’s advantage lay in long-distance combat.
A killer’s advantage lies in melee assassination.
“A Spiritual Power Master actually defeated a top assassin in close combat?”
The green-clothed Star Envoy’s face, unprecedentedly grave, stared at Zhang Ruochen with a little more scorn.
“The Hunter is hiding again.”
The Red Lust Star Envoy had been using his spiritual power to probe the Hunters right away, and just a moment ago, the Hunters who had originally been knocked inside the cliff wall, suddenly, disappeared again.
Zhang Ruochen remained in a breezy manner without the slightest bit of fear.
The Hunter possessed a superb Stealth Mystic Technique and top-notch speed, thus, becoming a top-notch assassin that made people scared of him.
It was a pity that he had met Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen had long since unleashed the Spatial Domain, and even the most powerful Stealth Mysteries became invisible.
As for speed under a Half Saint, who dared to compete with Zhang Ruochen who wore the Meteor Stealth Suit in terms of speed?
“Swish!”
A blood-red sword noiselessly stabbed out from behind Zhang Ruochen, striking at Zhang Ruochen’s vest.
Zhang Ruochen moved out a step to the left, easily avoiding the sword blade, and then, struck forwards at an even faster speed.
Another Wind and Thunder Finger struck the hunter’s neck.
The hunter was also brilliant, hastily unfolding his stance, his body lifting three feet upwards out of thin air to avoid the vitals of his neck.
Unfortunately, Zhang Ruochen seemed to have calculated his escape route long ago, and condensed a grade two spell, Thunder General’s Wrath.
A three-foot tall lightning giant appeared above the hunter’s back, erupting a destructive force that struck the electric hammer down, cleaving at the top of the hunter’s head.
“Boom!”
The hunter’s face was covered in blood, and his head almost sank inside his neck as he plummeted down towards the ground in a hurry, smashing into the bottom of the Quicksand Canyon and crashing into a large crater with a diameter of five feet.
Blood Cloud Sect Leader Xu Hong immediately rushed into the large pit, checking the hunter’s injuries, and found that the hunter was only seriously injured and unconscious, and not dead.
A cultivator of the ninth change of the Fish Dragon had already cultivated into a glazed treasure body, with an extremely strong physical defence, so naturally, he could not die that easily.
With a pleading look, Xu Hong stared at the Red Desire Star Envoy and said, “Lord Star Envoy, the Hunter has already been seriously injured by the Great Protector and has lost his battle power, can you spare his life?”
The Hunter had assassinated a number of experts around the Red Desire Star Envoy, how could the Red Desire Star Envoy spare him?
However, Xu Hong was, after all, one of her great generals, if she ordered the Hunter to be killed, it might force Xu Hong to rebel. How should the Hunter be disposed of?
Zhang Ruochen said, ”I think that we can first imprison the Hunter until we kill Emperor One and Lord Star Envoy becomes the new Young Lord. By then, the situation will be settled, and the hunter will naturally not be an enemy of Lord Star Envoy anymore.”
Xu Hong showed Zhang Ruochen a look of gratitude and said, “Many thanks, Great Protector, the previous grudges between Great Protector and the Blood Cloud Sect will be written off from now on.”
Whether the hunter was alive or dead had little effect on Zhang Ruochen, so since that was the case, why not do a favour?
Seeing that Zhang Ruochen had already given his word, the Red Desire Star Envoy temporarily pressed down the killing intent in his heart and said, “Since the Great Protector has said so, then, this Star Envoy will spare his life first.”
The Hunter’s serious injury was another not-so-small blow to the Green Clothed Star Envoy and the Glazed Knight General.
The once unappreciated Grand Protector had just become the number one enemy.
“Worthy of being the Great Protector, I’m really quite capable, in the past, this Star Envoy had underestimated you.”
The green-clothed Star Envoy’s eyes showed a cold colour as she executed a Ghost Grade Lower Grade Identity Martial Skill, and with every step she took, she was able to span a distance of tens of feet as if she were flying through the air into the sky.
She was going to meet Zhang Ruochen personally.
“Great Protector, old me has come to help you.”
Shi Bu Chou’s entire body emerged with a glazed treasure light, and with a stomp of her legs, she rushed upwards in a hurry, her five fingers pinched into a fist, striking out a Bright Light Lingyun Fist.
Bright Light Lingyun Fist, Ghost Grade Lower Grade Fist Technique.
Shi Bu Chou’s cultivation had reached the Ninth Transformation of the Fish Dragon, and was the second expert under the Red Desire Star Envoy’s seat, with his strength second only to Xu Hong.
As the fist technique was struck, Shi Bu Chou’s fist immediately became radiant, forming a fist shadow the size of a small mountain, like a bright blazing sun rising into the sky.
The green-clothed Star Envoy glanced towards Shi Bu Chou and let out a cold snort as the holy qi in the four holy veins in his body revolved with full force.
“Wow!”
Muddy holy qi gushed out from the green-clothed Star Envoy’s meridians in a steady stream, condensing into a green-coloured holy cloud.
The green-coloured holy cloud covered a large area of space, and every holy qi in the cloud weighed ten thousand jin, directly suppressing Shi Buqiao to the point that he fell downwards.
“With a bang, Shi Bu Chou landed back on the ground, half of his body sinking into the ground.
The green-coloured holy cloud pressed down and landed on top of the heads of the Red Desire Star Envoy and a group of evil cultivators, and even though they formed a combined attack formation, more than a dozen evil cultivators still couldn’t withstand it, spitting out blood and falling to the ground.
Even the Red Desire Star Envoys and the Evil Dao Overlords above the seventh transformation of the Fish Dragon were under immense pressure and had a feeling that it was difficult to catch their breath.
This was the special power that could only be erupted from a small-completed Saint Body, it was simply incredibly strong, and in the same realm, it was invincible.
“With your strength, you also want to also engage a Saint Body, you don’t know your own strength.”
The green-clothed Star Envoy snorted coldly, then, transforming into a green light, he charged straight upwards, waving his Saint Sword towards Zhang Ruochen above.
As the green-clothed Star Envoy flew away, the green-coloured Saint Cloud followed her as she rushed upwards into the sky, suppressing Zhang Ruochen. It was only at this point that the Evil Dao martial practitioners below simultaneously felt the pressure loosen.
“Not good, the Cyan Star Envoy has already inspired the power of the Minor Sacred Body, it’s impossible for the Great Protector to be her opponent.”The Red Desire Star Envoy’s face became a little ugly, worrying for Zhang Ruochen.
Above the Quicksand Canyon, a woman’s laughter resounded, “It’s long been heard that Star Envoy Qingyi possesses the Qingyun Sacred Body, so today, I’ve come to meet the legendary Qingyun Sacred Body to see just how strong it is?”
Mu Lingshi, wearing a long green dress and surprisingly wearing a mask on her face as well, flew down vertically from the top of the cliff wall on the left side, swinging a white holy sword and striking at the Green Clothed Star Envoy.
Zhang Ruochen stood right where he was, with no intention of striking.
In fact, he was also quite curious as to how strong Mu Lingshi’s cultivation was. Because, so far, even he was somewhat unable to see through Mu Lingshi.
“Daring to call out to the Sacred Body, I guess she still has a few real skills, she shouldn’t be too much weaker than the Green Clothed Star Envoy.”Zhang Ruochen’s heart thought so.
