Zhang Chen couldn’t block that blade, but could soone else?
Zhang Chen gently pushed the Princess’ body, her head directly blocking in front of him. Then ca a ’clang’ sound, the opponent’s long knife broke, the countershock left his limbs weak and his muscles numb, unable to move. At that mont, Zhang Chen had already thrust a knife into the opponent’s heart.
One strike, fatal, without hesitation.
Zhang Chen drew his knife and left, swiftly without delay, directly heading towards the lake.
At this ti, dozens of soldiers surrounded the corridor. Zhang Chen remained expressionless, then suddenly opened his mouth and another whirlwind blew out. The first dozen soldiers were directly blown away, swept into the sky by the fierce airflow. Even with cloth covering their eyes, the wind and sand were so intense that they couldn’t open their eyes, losing control of their bodies completely.
The whirlwind was vast and mighty, within three steps no one could be seen, countless towers and pavilions in the courtyard collapsed.
Zhang Chen seized the opportunity to dive into the chaotic crowd, using ultrasonic positioning, continuously interspersing and maneuvering. Finally, after five minutes, he broke through the encirclent and saw the small lake hundreds of ters ahead.
"Stop!" At that mont, hundreds of pursuers were angrily shouting amidst the chaotic wind and sand.
Seeing this, Zhang Chen shook his head: "Since I’ve seen the lake, this place is my domain, how dare you be presumptuous?"
With a thought, a hundred-ter-long, several-ter-thick water dragon rose from the lake, engulfing hundreds of chasing soldiers. In an instant, the rapidly rotating water turned the soldiers and their long knives into dozens of fast-spinning at-grinders, reducing them to minced at instantly.
"Truly terrifying!" Seeing this scene, Zhang Chen couldn’t help but click his tongue inwardly.
The water dragon transford into a Blood River, flowing back to the lake, turning the entire lake blood-red.
"I can use this river to escape." Standing on the shore, Zhang Chen’s eyes revealed a trace of coldness, intending to use his Divine Techniques to dry up the lake. But at this mont, a stream of golden light spontaneously flowed through his eyes, revealing a mysterious aura on the small path in the center of the lake.
"Hmm? Is there a mystery hidden in Prince Pingbian’s Mansion?" Zhang Chen murmured secretly.
Under his feet, the water froze, forming a Cold Ice Bridge, carrying Zhang Chen toward the island in the lake.
After coming this far, seeing the hidden mystery within Prince Pingbian’s Mansion, how could he ignore it?
"It must be my Creation." Zhang Chen was delighted, carrying the corpse of his eldest niece, stepping toward Prince Pingbian’s Mansion’s lake island.
"Stop! Password!"
At this mont, dozens of Golden Armor guards appeared opposite the island, holding crossbows aid at Zhang Chen, their eyes cold and stern.
The sky was filled with Yellow Sand, yet a mysterious power enveloped the lake island, blocking Zhang Chen’s Power of Yellow Sand. All the Yin Wind blowing to the shore was mysteriously dissipated.
Ignoring their warning, Zhang Chen carried the Princess’ body, walking leisurely on the water’s surface.
"Fire!"
Seeing Zhang Chen approaching relentlessly, the guard leader commanded, and crossbow arrows whistled out like bullets from the chamber toward Zhang Chen on the lake.
Buzz~
In the next mont, the lake water raised walls of water to block the arrows, all the water transford into Weak Water. The arrows losing their force instantly upon touching it.
Not even AK rifle bullets can kill when shot into water, let alone crossbow bolts? Weak Water?
"Courting death!"
Seeing their lethal attempt, Zhang Chen thought, and the lake water transford into a hundred-ter-long giant dragon, swiping across dozens of armored warriors. In an instant, those warriors were unable to dodge, flying away like balls, crashing into distant trees and rocks, becoming completely still.
"Five-stage Water Control Technique is truly terrifying!" Zhang Chen internally marveled.
But he also noticed that although protected by Dragon Qi, his skills faced suppression. The operation of his skills felt dim and cumberso, lacking the smooth efficiency as outside.
"Dragon Qi is crucial, it’s practically a panacea. I must deal with officialdom in the future, upgrading the skill level of Dragon Qi must be prioritized." Zhang Chen internally remarked.
Unbeknownst to Zhang Chen, the Northern Land was in chaos due to drought, causing suffering among the populace, as Prince Pingbian’s Mansion’s protective Dragon Qi had been weakened. Most critically, by setting up an Eight Trigrams Furnace at the Reverse Scale, continuously siphoning Dragon Qi, the Mansion’s Dragon Qi had suffered at least a thirty percent depletion.
Moreover, the Mansion’s Dragon Qi protection was rely residual power of the Dragon Vein, as true power converged entirely on Prince Pingbian.
While Zhang Chen’s mind flickered through various thoughts, he had already stepped on the shore, followed by a hundred-ter-long Water Dragon, crawling sinuously behind him.
"Stop! This is the forbidden area of the Mansion, no trespassing allowed!"
Again, two black-clad figures jumped out, with Qi Blood swirling around them. They were Martial Dao experts who had refined their Qi Blood.
Yet, seeing the hundred-ter-long, several-ter-thick Water Dragon behind Zhang Chen, their voices trembled, bodies quivering, but due to their duty, they bravely stood before Zhang Chen.
