"clang clang"
The energies in the sky kept colliding with each other. When Luo Chen sensed a gap, his figure suddenly turned into a blur and rushed towards Ouyang Gong.
Upon seeing this, Ouyang Gong's expression changed, and he forcefully swung his long sword toward Luo Chen's body.
"boom"
As soon as a crash was heard, the long sword that was tightly gripping Ouyang Gong's hand shattered in front of him.
A look of terror quickly filled Ouyang Gong's eyes.
"boom"
The powerful blow struck Ouyang Gong's chest instantly, sending him flying backward.
"puff"
A mouthful of thick blood spurted from Ouyang Gong's mouth, his face turning deathly pale.
As Luo Chen landed steadily on the ground, he let out a contemptuous laugh and said disdainfully to Ouyang Gong:
"Do you really think you can take me down with you?"
Sensing a deadly threat, Ouyang Gong realized that death was approaching. A strong will to survive welled up within him, and he repeatedly begged Luo Chen for mercy:
"Please, please spare me! I'm willing to do whatever you say!"
"Ah"
Luo Chen sneered and slowly walked towards Ouyang Gong, coldly saying to him:
"I gave you the chance back then, but you didn't cherish it. Now, there's only one path in front of you: death!"
As soon as Luo Chen finished speaking, a strong killing intent emanated from his eyes, and he rushed towards Ouyang Gong at lightning speed.
"No"
Ouyang Gong's face was filled with terror as he screamed loudly.
"puff"
With a dull thud, Luo Chen's figure stopped in place, while Ouyang Gong's figure fell limply to the ground.
At this moment, the servants who were watching from a distance showed a hint of panic in their eyes when they saw this scene, and hurriedly ran back towards the mansion.
After the servant had left, Luo Chen slowly looked toward where the servant had been, a barely perceptible sneer appearing on his lips.
"Master, master, something terrible has happened!"
When the servant returned to the mansion, he rushed into the main hall, his face filled with panic, and said to Lin Zheng:
"Master, the lord of the Ouyang family has been killed!"
"what?!"
Lin Zheng stood up abruptly from his chair and exclaimed in surprise.
"Does he really intend to slaughter all the clan chiefs who didn't arrive last night? That would definitely provoke a rebellion from all the clans!" Lin Zheng exclaimed in surprise.
"Master, that's not how it is. Only the head of the Ouyang family died; the others were unharmed!" the servant hurriedly explained to Lin Zheng.
Even though only the clan leader died, how could the clan members not sit idly by?
Thinking of this, Lin Zheng spoke again to the servant:
"Did Luo Chen kill those clan leaders and then leave directly?"
"Yes, sir."
Lin Zheng nodded slightly and said to the servant:
"Continue to observe the unusual movements of those families and clansmen, and let me know immediately if anything happens!"
"Yes!"
Although the servants were extremely unwilling to do this, there was nothing they could do about it!
A bloody storm suddenly swept through Wanfu City, and almost everyone who had not attended the banquet that night was wiped out within a day.
However, without powerful figures to protect them, those clans had no strength to seek revenge against Luo Chen and could only set their sights on Tianchi Peak outside the city.
At this moment, a knocking sound rang out at the door of the Lin residence in the middle of the night. Lin Zheng was startled and ordered his servants to open the door.
When Lin Zheng saw that it was Luo Chen who had come, his face was full of shock, and he hurriedly stood up and walked towards Luo Chen.
"Greetings, Lord City Lord!"
Seeing the respectful expression on Lin Zheng's face, Luo Chen smiled and nodded, then quickly walked into the hall.
"Lord City Lord, what brings you here so late in the heat?" Lin Zheng asked Luo Chen anxiously.
"Haha, Lord Lin, there's no need to be so nervous. Sit down and let's talk!"
After hearing Luo Chen's words, Lin Zheng, who had been standing, gradually sat down in the chair.
"Actually, it's nothing serious. I just wanted to ask Lord Lin what he thinks about this matter. After all, Lord Lin has gone to great lengths to send all his servants out to protect my safety!" Luo Chen said with a smile.
When Lin Zheng heard Luo Chen's words, he was startled and quickly stood up from his seat, saying to Luo Chen:
"Lord City Lord, I didn't intentionally send people to follow you, but..."
"It's alright. If I were to mind this, do you think your servants would still come back?"
As he said this, Lin Zheng gradually breathed a sigh of relief, but his heart, which was still clenched tightly, still dared not let go.
"Lord City Lord, I have learned that all those clans have contributed their treasures to Tianchi Peak, hoping that they can send powerful warriors to kill the City Lord!" Lin Zheng said hurriedly.
"Tianchi Peak?!"
As he uttered those three words, a chilling glint flashed in Luo Chen's eyes, and he said coldly:
"Actually, I would have gone to them even if they hadn't come to me! I'm sure they have a lot of treasures there!"
"My lord, you want to steal the treasures of Tianchi Peak!!!" Lin Zheng said in shock.
"It's not about robbing them, it's about annihilating them. Who told their Taihua Daoist to deliberately provoke me for no reason!" Luo Chen said coldly.
"Destroyed, destroyed!"
When Lin Zheng heard that Luo Chen actually wanted to annihilate Tian Chifeng as well, his heart clenched. Not to mention that there were many powerful people at the Monarch level there, there were probably many at the Venerable level, and even some at the Half-Emperor level!
Chapter 127 Ascending to the Heavenly Red Peak
Seeing the shocked look on Lin Zheng's face, Luo Chen chuckled and said to Lin Zheng casually:
"What? What's the problem?"
"There are half-Emperor level experts in Tianchi Peak!" Lin Zheng said in shock.
"So what?"
Luo Chen smiled and strode out of the hall.
As Luo Chen's figure gradually disappeared from Lin Zheng's sight, Shou Bo's figure slowly emerged from a corner and said to Lin Zheng in a low voice:
"Now you should know how terrifying he is!"
Hearing the voice beside him, Lin Zheng slowly turned around and asked Uncle Shou:
"Uncle Shou, does he really have the strength to kill those people? You know there are half-emperors there!"
"This person would never do anything rash. Since he dared to say that, it proves that he must have the ability!"
Seeing that Uncle Shou gave Luo Chen such high praise, Lin Zheng couldn't help but glance a few more times in the direction Luo Chen had left.
At this moment, Lin Zheng slightly turned his head and said to Uncle Shou:
"Uncle Shou, what level of cultivation do you possess? Why do you hold him in such high regard?"
Upon hearing Lin Zheng's question, Uncle Shou looked slightly upwards towards the sky and slowly said:
"Emperor-level!"
"what?!"
Lin Zheng was already shocked by Luo Chen, but now, after hearing Shou Bo reveal his strength, he was speechless with astonishment.
Previously, Lin Zheng had never seen Uncle Shou make a move, so he naturally regarded Uncle Shou, who had been with him since he was a child, as an ordinary person.
Now that he heard that Shou Bo, whom he had always thought was an ordinary person, was actually an Emperor-level being who could stand out from the crowd, how could he not be shocked!
"Uncle Shou, how come I've never heard you mention this before!" Lin Zheng asked curiously, suppressing his shock.
"Hehe, I'm getting old, and I've become indifferent to these things."
After Shou Bo chuckled and said something, he slowly walked to the side.
At this moment, after Luo Chen left Wanfu City, he flew directly towards Tianchi Peak.
When Luo Chen appeared at Tianchi Peak, he looked at the huge mountain gate with disdain.
"who!"
Several disciples quickly descended the stone steps above and cautiously inquired of Luo Chen.
"I am Luo Chen, the city lord of Wanfu City. I have come to discuss some important matters with your sect leader today!"
"The Lord of Wanfu City?"
The crowd hesitated for a moment, then slowly said to Luo Chen:
"Please wait here for a moment, I'll go in and report!"
"no need!"
Before the disciple could turn around, Luo Chen suddenly rushed forward.
"catch him!"
When the disciples saw this, they cried out in alarm and quickly chased after Luo Chen.
"buzz"
Suddenly, a powerful aura emanated from the main hall, and a sharp beam of light swiftly lashed out towards Luo Chen.
A contemptuous smile appeared on Luo Chen's lips. He suddenly turned around and unleashed a burst of energy.
"boom"
With a loud crash, Luo Chen landed steadily on the ground, his gaze slowly turning forward.
A middle-aged man dressed in blue robes swiftly landed in front of Luo Chen and coldly questioned him:
"Who exactly are you! Why are you trespassing on my Tianchi Peak!"
"I am Luo Chen, the city lord of Wanfu City. I have come here today to pay my respects!" Luo Chen said with a smile.
"The City Lord of Wanfu City? Shouldn't it be the Butcher? Why is it you?!"
"Hmph, don't try to fool me!" the man roared.
The man shouted sharply and quickly reached for Luo Chen's neck.
"Why can't we just talk things out? I was hoping to resolve this peacefully this time!"
Luo Chen shook his head helplessly a few times, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and he forcefully slapped his palm forward.
"bang bang"
The two fists collided instantly, and a look of surprise appeared in the eyes of the Chifeng Sect Leader that day.
When Luo Chen saw the expression on the face of the Tianchi Peak Sect Leader, a smile gradually appeared on his lips. He suddenly pulled his arm back and flew quickly to the side.
"what!"
Once he realized what was happening, the head of Tianchi Peak flew rapidly into the sky.
"Curse!"
As soon as the Tianchi Peak Sect Leader finished speaking, the spiritual energy in the air rapidly converged in front of him.
"Ho!"
Suddenly, the Heavenly Crimson Peak Master roared and unleashed a burst of energy towards Luo Chen.
"Dragnet!"
Sensing the aura emanating from the Heavenly Crimson Peak Sect Leader's hand, Luo Chen, not to be outdone, struck out with his palm towards that energy.
