Zhang Ruochen wanted to chase after Feng Yinchan. He didn’t want her to escape and become a lasting threat.
Feng Yinchan controlled two Wuchangs. Her combat ability was comparable to some beings on the Half-Saint Outer Rank. Who knew if she had other tricks too?
During the golden era of the Ghost Cultivation Race and Necromancer Race, they were comparable to the Immortal Vampires. As the princess of the Ghost Cultivation Race, she must have many powerful trump cards.
Feng Yinchan’s cultivation wasn’t very strong now. As long as Sikong One and Two could stop the two Wuchangs, Zhang Ruochen was confident he could kill Feng Yinchan even when wounded.
Feng Yinchan escaped out of the Provincial Military Governor Residence with two injured Wuchangs. She flew hurriedly toward the central region of the Sacred City.


When Zhang Ruochen caught up to her, she’d already escaped into the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion. She’d entered through the towering and majestic palace gates.
Since Qing Yichan could ask her to help defeat Zhang Ruochen, then the Ghost Cultivation Race and Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion must have some strong partnership.
I’m still late. If I let her escape, there will definitely be danger in the future.
Zhang Ruochen sighed, but he stopped. He didn’t continue pursuing.
The Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion wasn’t only a residence. It was a huge and ancient palace city. The ancient aura gave off a grandiose feeling.
The vast square before the palace was completely made out of jade. The towering city walls were like rows of mountain ridges. Electricity rippled across the walls with a magnificent feeling.
Standing on the ground and looking up at the city walls, one could see various opulent red palaces. Some were built along the mountain and reached into the clouds. The lights that came from them were like a starry sky. It felt mysterious and wispy.
The Lingxiao Heavenly Mansion was guarded heavily. Every now and then, there would be a team of guards riding tigers or lions. Carrying long spears, they would survey the city walls.
From afar, Zhang Ruochen gazed at the nameplate hanging above the palace gate. He narrowed his eyes at the words
Lingxiao Mansion,
finding it painful to look at them.
Eight hundred years ago, the nameplate should have said
Emperor Ming Palace.



This was the royal palace of the Sacred Central Empire.
Zhang Ruochen took out a sword and had it float in the air. Then he took out Liao Huacheng’s and Qing Yichan’s heads. With a flash, the sword streaked out and nailed into the nameplate with the two bloody heads.
Boom.
The powerful Sword Qi shattered the purple nameplate with a strong collision force. It nailed into the wall with the two heads.
At that moment, dense runes emerged from the center of the palace. It formed a defense formation that covered the entire Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion.

Who dares to attack the Heavenly King Mansion?
an angry roar thundered, shaking the Spiritual Qi in the air violently.
Who dared to attack the Heavenly King Mansion? Not even a Saint had such guts.
The Monks in nearby regions were all shocked and peered at the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion.

Oh my, someone shattered the nameplate with a sword. Is he declaring war with the imperial court?


Who is so wild? Is he captured?



…
Loud wind sounded inside the mansion and various figures flew out.
The surveillance guards all gathered at the outer gate with their weapons out. They looked very angry and powerful.

Look…It’s General Liao and General Qingyi’s heads…Someone killed them…
a terrified voice said.
Two generals had been killed and the palace’s nameplate was destroyed. This was undeniably a slap to the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion’s face. They were humiliated.
A Saint arrived and personally ordered,
Seal the entire city and do not let him escape. For those that provoke the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion, death is the only end.

By the time the city was sealed, Zhang Ruochen had already escaped back to the Phoenix Dance Palace.
In a grand pavilion of the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion, a group of domineering leaders of the Sacred City gathered around to discuss Zhang Ruochen.
This included five generals of the Canglong Army, three of the four lords, Princess Feng Yinchan of the Ghost Cultivation Race, and Yin Xuanji of the Necromancer Race.
In addition, the top saint of the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion and main general of the Canglong Army had also arrived with their true bodies. They sat at the front.


With such a scene, even other Saints would want to escape.
Who would’ve thought that they were only discussing how to capture or kill a Fifth Level Half-Saint junior?
Feng Yinchan was very slender. She looked like a 14 or 15-year-old. In reality, this wasn’t her physical body. Her body was left in the netherworld. She couldn’t bring it out.
For her and Yin Xuanji, only their saint souls could escape from the netherworld. Her body now was chosen from the thousand-year corpses collected by the Necromancer Race. It was 70% compatible with her saint soul.
The owner of this body had been an immortal saint from ten thousand years ago. Even after living for almost a thousand years, she still looked like a teen girl. Her features hadn’t changed even after death and were maintained for thousands of years.
After melding with a saint body, Feng Yinchan’s cultivation had indeed improved vastly. However, if the body wasn’t 100% compatible with the saint soul, there were also big disadvantages. As her cultivation deepened, the disadvantages would become more obvious.

Zhang Ruochen really did kill Qingyi Chan. I’m sure of this.
Feng Yinchan’s voice was cold.
Zhang Ruochen has two powerful Buddhist monks with him. Judging from their physical features and martial techniques, I think they are Sikong One and Two from the Half-Saint Outer Rank.

Chi Yutang sat across from her and scoffed coldly.
No wonder Zhang Ruochen could kill so many generals after entering the Half-Saint Realm recently. He has such powerful helpers.

Feng Yinchan glanced at Chi Yutang and smirked. She didn’t bother reminding him. Zhang Ruochen indeed had two helpers from the Outer Rank, but he himself was powerful too.
Anyone who underestimated him had died tragically.



Zhang Ruochen had once interacted with Sikong One, Sikong Two, and the Deity of the Blood God Sect at the headquarters of the Black Market in Tiantai State,
the main general of the Canglong Army said.

Their appearance isn’t that shocking,
he continued.
Even more troublesome is that Zhang Ruochen must have some secret treasure that can completely cover his aura. I can’t find him with my saintly senses at all. Plus, his Spiritual Power is very strong. He can sense a Saint’s aura beforehand. Whenever I arrive, he’s already escaped. He’s despicable.

With that, the main general looked at his five generals and ordered,
Yan Tong, Bai Xinglou, you five don’t leave the Lingxiao Heavenly Mansion these days, lest Zhang Ruochen assassinate you.

Yan Tong and Bai Xinglou were unconvinced. They rubbed their fists, eager to try and fight against Zhang Ruochen. Their cultivations were above Qingyi Chan and they were the strongest of the ten generals. However, they were forced to hide inside Lingxiao Heavenly Mansion by a junior in the Half-Saint Realm. They were naturally angry.
However, they couldn’t go against their main general.

I’ve received a message,
the powerful Saint from the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion said.
Chi Wansui will hurry back in two days. By then, we can easily set up a trap and kill Zhang Ruochen and his helpers.


Second Brother is finally coming back! Haha!
Chi Yutang laughed.
This is great. I’d like to see how Zhang Ruochen will continue being so wild. No matter who, anyone offends the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion will die.

What had happened tonight shook the Sacred City again.

Two more generals had died. One of them is the strong Qingyi Chan. Five generals of the Canglong Army have died already.


It’s been proved that the killer is indeed Zhang Ruochen, the Time and Space Descendant. The princess of the Ghost Cultivation Race personally saw him use the powers of time and space.


Zhang Ruochen’s performance is so aggressive. He killed two generals in a row and personally went to the palace gate of the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion. He shattered the nameplate and nailed the two generals’ heads onto the wall.

After a night of buildup, news of Zhang Ruochen killing Liao Huacheng and Qingyi Chan spread throughout the city the next morning. The young Monks were all excited. They wished they were Zhang Ruochen and could also do such shocking things.
As for why Zhang Ruochen killed the five generals, no young person cared to find out. They just thirsted for power and becoming famous in a night.
More and more young Monks worshipped Zhang Ruochen in the Saint City. His fame was about to reach the level of Cai Jinglun, the new top of the rank, and Chi Wansui.
Of course, some also looked down on him.

I heard that Chi Wansui will hurry back soon. Zhang Ruochen’s good days won’t last long. The Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion will definitely fight back.


They invited a princess of the Ghost Cultivation Race and a talent from the Necromancer Race just to take care of Zhang Ruochen.

Chu Siyuan, who’d been visiting the Cai Family, had a terrible headache these days.
He’d never expected that Zhang Ruochen would make such a big deal and upend the Sacred City. If Zhang Ruochen continued, he would definitely cause true trouble.
Chu Siyuan used his Spiritual Power to try and find where Zhang Ruochen was hiding and stop his bloodshed. At the same time, he worried the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion would use some extreme measures against Zhang Ruochen.
However, he’d failed.
A powerful Spiritual Power figure had covered Zhang Ruochen’s aura. Even Chu Siyuan couldn’t find him.
In my entire life, my Spiritual Power has never been weaker than anyone else. Who can hide from me?
Chu Siyuan was very stubborn. In anger, he pounded his chest with his fists. With a cough, he spat out blood.
He drew with his blood and used the power of the Blood Way to calculate again.
How could the Painter Sect’s leader admit defeat?
Trying his hardest, Chu Siyuan finally found a general area. However, he couldn’t lock onto Zhang Ruochen’s specific location. Finding him would be like finding a pin in a haystack.
Chu Siyuan naturally didn’t know that Zhang Ruochen had the Buddhist beads from Master Yintuoluo that could cover his aura.
It wouldn’t be easy to find him.
