Chapter 438: Yuquan Kingdom, besieged by the army
Before leaving, the fourth brother gave Liang Zifeng a pile of jade slips, which contained secret manuals on martial arts and formations that did not involve the secrets of the Jiugong Pavilion, as well as various arts and miscellaneous knowledge such as refining weapons and alchemy.
After bidding farewell to the fourth brother's family, Liang Zifeng and the other two began their travels in the world of immortal cultivation. Like ordinary people, they walked on foot and played wherever they went.
It’s just that their walking speed is sometimes fast, sometimes slow. Sometimes they only walk two or three meters at a time like old people, and sometimes they appear three miles away in one step.
In the blink of an eye, another three years passed. Liang Zifeng had already broken through the elixir and became an infant. He had been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage for more than a year, while the two women had just been promoted to the Core Forming stage.
One day, the three of them traveled to the capital of a mortal dynasty, which was called the Yuquan Kingdom. Since entering this kingdom, the two women felt that this place seemed familiar.
As soon as the three of them approached the city gate, they were surrounded by a group of soldiers, which made them feel a little confused.
Over the past three years, they have encountered many people who wanted to take action against them, including monks, martial arts masters, not to mention bandits, but no official force has ever dared to cause trouble for them.
After all, the temperaments of the three men and the way they moved showed that they were high-ranking monks. Even in those powerful empires, they had never been treated like this.
"What do you mean?" Liang Zifeng frowned and asked the soldiers surrounding them.
The soldiers around looked at Liang Zifeng and the other two nervously, but they did not put down their weapons. After hearing Liang Zifeng's question, no one responded.
Just when Liang Zifeng was getting a little impatient, the surrounding soldiers made way for him, and then a man dressed as a eunuch walked over.
"Our imperial master wants to see the three of you. Please come with us." The man who came was indeed a eunuch. He spoke with a duck-like voice, soft and weak, but his tone was superior.
Liang Zifeng ignored the eunuch. He knew that in the world of immortal cultivation, most countries would have immortal cultivators stationed there. Most of the positions were national masters, and most of them were immortal cultivators with royal blood.
Liang Zifeng naturally would not be polite to the eunuch's rudeness. He simply reached out and restrained him. At the same time, a terrifying pressure spread around.
Just as the soldiers were about to make a move, they were crushed to the ground by the pressure and could not move. Then, in front of the eunuch's shocked gaze, Liang Zifeng put his hand on his head and began to violently search his soul.
In just a moment, the eunuch's eyes rolled back, foam came out of his mouth, and he fell to the ground, unable to get up. He had become an idiot.
The soldiers who were pinned to the ground by Liang Zifeng's aura turned pale with shock when they saw that eunuch of noble status was crippled by Liang Zifeng in this way.
At this time, thousands of soldiers appeared from the surroundings and surrounded the place, and more soldiers came from farther away.
Some of the soldiers who rushed over broke into Liang Zifeng's range of pressure, and suddenly they became like the previous soldiers, as if they were carrying a mountain on their backs, and they could only feel relieved by lying on the ground.
"Second brother, what's going on?"
Liang Zifeng looked at the two women speechlessly, then said helplessly: "What can happen? It's the cause and effect of your two bodies."
"Ah? How could that be? There are two kingdoms between the Yuquan Kingdom and the kingdom where we were originally in, right?" the little girl asked in surprise.
"Sir, what's going on?"
"Because the original identities of both of you are princesses of the Yuquan Kingdom, and princesses of the Yuquan Kingdom can participate in the competition for the king.
Although the two of you originally had ordinary identities and no power of your own, generally speaking, you are not a threat to other candidates, but do you know who the current King of Yuquan is?"
"Who is it? Could it be the brother or sister of these two bodies?"
"No, you two are the only direct descendants of the previous King Yuquan. The others were killed. The current king is your cousin.
Now, apart from you and his children, there is no bloodline left in the royal family."
"Wow, so cruel." Although the little girl said that the other party was cruel, her eyes were bright and she was obviously very interested in this matter.
"How ridiculous." Leng Yuzhao complained subconsciously after hearing it.
"Yeah, it's really bloody." Liang Zifeng echoed, then looked up at the sky. He felt that the way of heaven in the world of immortal cultivation seemed to know of their existence.
Gradually, the three of them were surrounded by more than 50,000 soldiers. Suddenly, a general came over on horseback. Under the pressure of Liang Zifeng, he shouted to Liang Zifeng: "The state teacher has ordered that the three of you seal your cultivation and accept the trial!"
"Haha, he's just a country thief. Tell your national teacher not to seek death!" Liang Zifeng responded with disdain.
"Hmph, I advise you to think it over carefully. Otherwise, the thirty thousand armor-piercing soul-devouring arrows will destroy you both physically and spiritually!"
"Sir, are the Armor-Piercing Soul-Devouring Arrows really that powerful?"
"Yes, second brother, I have heard of this armor-piercing and soul-devouring arrow a long time ago. Can it really pose a threat to a Jindan-stage cultivator?"
"Who knows? Anyway, I don't feel any threat, so don't worry."
After Liang Zifeng finished speaking, he took the two women and walked towards the city gate, completely ignoring the tens of thousands of soldiers around them.
"How dare you! You don't even know how to live or die! Shoot!" The general got angry when he saw that Liang Zifeng dared to ignore him, so he waved his hand and shouted loudly.
Suddenly, a large black rain of arrows flew towards Liang Zifeng and the other two. Each arrow had a hidden fluctuation and was actively absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy.
Liang Zifeng and the other two also stopped at this time, looking at the rain of arrows with curiosity, and the general also looked at Liang Zifeng and the other two as if he was looking at death.
Suddenly, the armor-piercing and soul-devouring arrows that first approached Liang Zifeng and the other two inexplicably disappeared less than three meters away from Liang Zifeng.
The rain of arrows that followed also disappeared within three meters of Liang Zifeng, as if there was an invisible glutton surrounding Liang Zifeng, swallowing up all the armor-piercing and soul-devouring arrows.
After the second wave of rain of arrows disappeared, the general looked at Liang Zifeng in horror. When he saw that the third wave of rain of arrows also disappeared, he immediately stopped the army from continuing to shoot arrows at Liang Zifeng.
"You...you..." The general pointed at Liang Zifeng with sweat all over his forehead, as if he had a stutter and couldn't speak for a long time.
Liang Zifeng glanced at the other party, then took out three arrows from somewhere, the armor-piercing and soul-devouring arrows, and handed one to each of the two women.
