On a big tree looking like a crooked-neck tree on the outskirts of Lingyun City, a dozen figures swayed in the evening breeze, occasionally hosting so insects or birds that landed montarily, followed by angry curses.
"Qi Ning, hurry and get
down. When my grandpa gets here, I guarantee you won't even have a corpse left!"
"You royal bastards, if you've got the guts, let us down! Our Lingyun Sect will make sure your Royal Family is filled with corpses!"
The disciples of Lingyun Sect were being tough with their words, but their bodies remained paralyzed. Apart from barely being able to use their mouths to curse a bit, they had almost lost all ability to move. They could only continue to curse and swear.
However, their words got no response.
Four sneaky figures hid in a grass haystack, in front of them was an anti-materiel sniper rifle. Zhang nglong had special plans for tonight, but evidently, the plans had not started yet, so he was looking for so entertainnt.
"Brother Zhang, what's this thing?" You Ruo looked at the dark sniper gun in front of her, "Is this a spiritual artifact you invented?"
"This thing's called a Barrett. You see, pull this here and aim it at your target, then..."
Bam!
With a loud bang, a bullet hit one of the young n from Lingyun Sect hard.
If it were a regular human, this shot wouldn't just leave a hole; it would likely blow a big chunk of the body away.
But these were martial artists of the True Martial Realm. Their bodies had been tempered in the Body Refining Realm to be harder than steel. This large-caliber sniper rifle bullet couldn't hurt them.
But now, their bodies were paralyzed, muscles relaxed; not being lethal, but causing them so physical pain was totally fine.
"Ouch!"
A scream of agony rang out, as one Lingyun Sect youth's back of the head was hit bald in one spot.
"See? One shot, one headshot. Call
the Gun God."
"This is so much fun!"
The three of them showed eager expressions. You like to curse, don't you? Then let's shoot a few more rounds at you.
Zhang nglong took out three more sniper rifles.
"Bang!"
"Yeah! Shoot him in the nuts, shoot him in the nuts!"
...
The screams of the Lingyun Sect disciples and the laughter of Zhang nglong and the others echoed in the fields.
Soon, the ground was littered with bullet casings, and the people from Lingyun Sect had scread their throats hoarse. Even if they wanted to curse more, they couldn't muster the voice anymore.
The four of them lay sprawled on the haystack, staring at the stars above.
"Brother Zhang, are you sure the people from Lingyun Sect will co?" Qi Xiu asked.
"Don't worry. Since this Ling Tianxing is a grandson of an Elder, and an only descendant at that, he'll definitely co unless he wants his bloodline to end." Zhang nglong said confidently, "They should be almost here by now."
"Brother Zhang, but Ling Tianxing's grandpa is a martial artist of the First Realm of Heaven Breaking, can we take him on?" Qi Ning asked worriedly. Even though Zhang nglong had a plus version of the Italian Cannon, he was still a bit apprehensive.
"Qi Ning, you're underestimating your Brother Zhang," Qi Xiu said, "Didn't you know, the night before you ca back, your Brother Zhang made a big show at our palace. He defeated father's personal guard."
"You an Xing Wuji?" Qi Ning widened his eyes, "He's a martial artist of the First Realm of Heaven Breaking, and Brother Zhang is just at the Eighth Grade of the True Martial Realm, how is that possible?"
"It was more than just a defeat, it was a resounding thrashing!" You Ruo said, "Brother Zhang mastered the legendary Sword Array! Level Four Sword Array! Have you ever seen thousands of Heavenly Grade spiritual artifacts soaring in the sky?"
Qi Ning had never seen it, nor could he imagine it, but he knew he must have missed sothing spectacular.
"So, with your Brother Zhang around, a re martial artist of the First Realm of Heaven Breaking is no threat." Qi Xiu said, "Our goal is to level Lingyun Sect. Taking out one little elder is nothing. Think bigger!"
"Hahahaha," Zhang nglong laughed, "Wanna take
on? He'll have to cross that river first!"
"That river?" Qi Xiu looked puzzled. He had just seen Zhang nglong sneaking around over there, doing who knows what. Could it be he set up so trap there?
"Hehehe..." Zhang nglong chuckled with a mischievous laugh.
...
"They're here!"
Suddenly, Zhang nglong sensed a powerful force approaching, carrying a violent and maniacal aura in its mystic Qi.
From a distance, he saw the tree full of hanging people.
These Lingyun Sect youths were all bruised and battered, tied up like dumplings, with even delicate butterfly bows tied on them.
Each of them had a tag hanging on them.
"Strong, vigorous virgin male... 5000 Xuan Crystals."
"Hemorrhoid bald mushroom man... 6500 Xuan Crystals."
"Sunny, handso scher... 5800 Xuan Crystals."
"Dim-witted but with an extraordinary background martial brat... 5 million Xuan Crystals."
...
Each of them had a price and a simple description. Being hung up like rchandise was a huge humiliation!
"Courting death!" Ling Ye was furious at the sight, first, seeing his beloved grandson beaten like this, and secondly, their Lingyun Sect being provoked in such a manner.
What's more infuriating was his grandson's price being exactly 5 million Xuan Crystals, the sa amount required to be paid as this year's tax to the Royal Family!
This was definitely a retaliatory act by the Royal Family!
"Grandpa, save !" Ling Tianxing already sensed his grandfather's aura and imdiately felt imnsely wronged.
"Tianxing, don't be afraid, Grandpa's here!" Ling Tianxing imdiately wanted to go over.
"Wait!" At this mont, Zhang nglong walked out from across the river in the haystack, "Old man, which one do you want to buy? Cash or card? Alipay or WeChat?"
Ling Ye's face turned dark because he saw Qi Xiu and Qi Ning following behind Zhang nglong, all mbers of the Royal Family of the Sacred Gold Dynasty, whom he recognized one by one.
He didn't recognize You Ruo, but from their similar features, it wasn't hard to guess she was also from the Royal Family.
But this black-haired young man, Ling Ye had no impression of him at all, and it seed he was the core figure among these people.
"You royals are quite bold, actually daring to provoke our Lingyun Sect like this! Are you planning on severing ties with our Lingyun Sect?"
"Fourth Elder, that statent seems a bit biased, don't you think?" Qi Xiu said, "My twelfth brother ca to collect taxes by order, your sect didn't greet him with the proper courtesy, refused to pay the tax, and even went so far as to injure him? Provocation? Sever ties? It seems your sect started this, didn't it?"
"We also took over these ranches, fields, and fish ponds, and your sect tried to forcibly occupy them. In the end, when no match, is that also our fault?"
"Why waste so many words on him?" Zhang nglong said, pulling Qi Xiu behind him, "We're here for a fight, not to talk sense. Can't we just politely ask about each other's family when we sit down?"
Zhang nglong bluntly said, "That so-called Elder Ling Ye, right? I'm your dad."
"???"
Everyone was shocked; although they ca for a fight, wasn't Zhang nglong being too straightforward? Not even pretending?
"You little bastard, what did you say?"
"I said I'm your dad. If you're not happy, co at !"
