Chapter 1629 - 1629 Marquis Huntian, Li Qianyuan
1629 Marquis Huntian, Li Qianyuan
Of course, Chu Yunfan wouldn’t suddenly show mercy. He let Nangong Zhuo go because he had his own opinions. Even if Nangong Zhuo’s strength improved in the future, he was confident that Nangong Zhuo’s improvement speed wouldn’t be faster than his.
Moreover, Chu Yunfan knew from Ye Qiushui that the Nangong clan had a lot of influence in Grand Xia. Chu Yunfan would go to Grand Xia sooner or later, so unless it was necessary, he did not want to offend the forces in Grand Xia.
Of course, if Nangong Zhuo changed his mind, he wouldn’t mind killing him.
As Chu Yunfan stared at Nangong Zhuo, the latter seemed to be frightened by him. There was no resentment in his eyes. When he heard Chu Yunfan was willing to let him go, he heaved a sigh of relief and quickly said, “Thank you, Brother Chu.”
Although he resented Chu Yunfan for knocking him to the ground and almost killing him, he knew that he would not be able to kill Chu Yunfan. With his pride, he wouldn’t dare to ask the elders of the Nangong clan to help him. Most importantly, he was a member of an aristocratic family. He had grown up in all kinds of schemes and plots. He knew who he could offend and who he couldn’t.
Only when he calmed down and did not look at Chu Yunfan from above did he realize how terrifying Chu Yunfan was. As long as he did not die prematurely, his future was limitless.
In the end, Nangong Zhuo decided to give up on finding trouble with Chu Yunfan and instead switched tactics to befriend him. This was especially so for a local of the Violet Thunder Sword Domain.
Chu Yunfan was so outstanding, and he would definitely enter Grand Xia in the future. Moreover, he did not have a foundation, so he was just the right person to rope in.
All of Nangong Zhuo’s anger was vented on Yang Feifeng, who had dragged him into the water. If it weren’t for Yang Feifeng, he wouldn’t have ended up like this. However, he didn’t know that it was because he had given up on finding trouble with Chu Yunfan that he had escaped. If he had any thoughts, he wouldn’t have been able to escape Chu Yunfan’s perception. At that time, he would have died.
“This is great. Everyone gets a happy ending.” Huang Feng smiled. “We don’t have any reason to fight to the death in the first place. It’s just for the Violet Thunder Swords’ inheritance and some fortuitous encounters. Wouldn’t we gain more by joining forces than by killing each other?”
Nangong Zhuo thought for a moment and nodded. Previously, the four of them had worked together tacitly to block the peak Golden Cores who had rushed over from behind, successfully allowing them to s.n.a.t.c.h the bulk of this fortuitous encounter. If they fought to the death, it was inevitable that others would benefit from it. At the end of the day, it was all for the sake of benefits. There were only eternal benefits, not eternal enemies.
All of a sudden, the gigantic sword ghost let out a long howl toward the sky and began to move. It stepped out of the range everyone thought it was confined to. Some Grand Xia experts, Thunder Sword Domain locals, and many monsters were affected. They were struck by sword lights and turned into a shower of blood.
Chu Yunfan, Saber Tyrant, Nangong Zhuo, and Huang Feng looked at each other, and their expressions turned ugly. If the sword ghost was stuck to a small area, they could carefully search for more treasures. But now that it had stepped out of that area, they were in grave danger.
“Let’s go!”
Saber Tyrant was the first to react. He turned into a streak of light and quickly swept across the ground at supersonic speed. Chu Yunfan and the others looked at each other, and their first reaction was to escape. Their strength was simply not enough to withstand a single strike from the sword ghost.
In just a few moments, they had left the city where the Violet Thunder Swords was located. Behind them, the sword ghost was getting closer and closer. Just as it was about to leave the city and catch up to the crowd, a blazing flame descended from the sky and landed on the sword ghost.
“Rrrraaaagggh!”
The sword ghost was smashed open, and it cried out in pain. It was a creature of extreme Yin, and this ball of fire was a flame of extreme Yang. This was like the sword ghost meeting its nemesis, and it burned a huge hole in the ground.
If it had been an ordinary person, they would have been burnt to death on the spot, or at the very least, severely injured. However, the sword ghost had only let out a long howl before it recovered. Its blood-red eyes, which were as big as lanterns, stared at the sky.
Everyone spotted a huge war chariot in the sky.
This chariot was a bronze chariot. There were even spots of rust on the body of the chariot. It was unknown how many years it had been destroyed. There were even some dark red blood stains in some of the dents. Many many years had pa.s.sed since, but the blood had not dried up.
There were also some marks left by swords and spears on the carriage, which looked quite old and worn. However, it was this extremely ancient and worn-out chariot that was bursting forth with an unprecedented and terrifying might that firmly suppressed the sword ghost who was chasing everyone.
Chu Yunfan was shocked to find that the creature pulling the chariot was not an ordinary creature, but a divine dragon. Of course, it was not a real divine dragon, but a divine dragon condensed from the laws of heaven and earth. This divine dragon was completely red as if it was burning with raging flames.
It was a fire dragon, making the entire bronze chariot look like the sun in the sky.
“Oh, wow!”
Chu Yunfan sucked in a breath of cold air. He could see the origin of this divine dragon. It was a divine dragon condensed from fire nature laws.
This bronze chariot had a powerful background!
Then, Chu Yunfan looked into the chariot. It was driven by a young man in fiery red armor. He looked to be about 25 or 26 years old. He had a handsome face and held the reins in one hand and a halberd in the other.
He looked like the G.o.d of war.
The young man was the only one who had managed to suppress the entire city. Even the unscrupulous sword ghost stared at the figure with a grave expression.
“It’s Marquis Huntian, Li Qianyuan! Why is he here?” Huang Feng exposed the young man’s ident.i.ty.
