A series of powerful Saint-Path forces erupted and flooded Lin Manor entirely, stopping only at the edge of the manor as they were blocked by a light screen.

Most of the people in Lin Manor were so badly affected by the surging auras that their noses and ears bled, and they fainted on the ground.

Lin Chenyu noticed Zhang Ruochens figure. While there was some initial elation and trembling, all of that turned into a long sigh. Cousin you you should not have come back

In Lin Chenyus opinion, those black-robed cultivators were like incarnations of demon kings or celestial generals, and Zhang Ruochen was literally walking into a trap by coming back.

I had to come back and visit.

A halo of Saint Qi appeared around Zhang Ruochens body and soon covered Lin Chenyu, Lin Lingshan, as well as the rest. It helped them to resist the aura that was coming from all of the present Saints. Immediately after, he took out a low-grade sacred pill and tossed it to Lin Lingshan so that she could give it to the clan elder.

Whoosh!!

In the air, a circuit began to take shape.

A thin man in black walked out from the center of the circuit and sneered, Zhang Ruochen, you have finally shown yourself!

With your cultivation level, you should not be hoping for me to show up, Zhang Ruochen said indifferently.

There are three Nine-Step Saint Kings and more than ten Seven-step Saint Kings in our realm who are within the borders of Yunwu Commandery. I have already passed on the news to them, and they will rush over soon enough, the man in the black robe said.

Zhang Ruochen responded, To think that Ruiya Realm would send so many powerful folks just to come after me.

He could detect an aura similar to that of Wang Xu and Wang Tian from the man in black, hence he determined that the cultivators were from the Ruiya Realm.

If you have some self-awareness and do not want to cause the deaths of the mortals in this manor, you better surrender now, the man in black said.

Whooosh

Zhang Ruochen could not be bothered to say more to him. The Saint Qi halo around his body multiplied and expanded outward, one circle after another. As many as a hundred and eight rings enveloped the entire manor.

Such a devastating Saint-Path Power shocked all of the martial artists and cultivators in Yunwu Royal City.

Up in the air, the expression of the black-robed man suddenly changed, and he said, Zhang Ruochen, do you really want to fight? Even if we are not your match with our cultivation level, once the fighting starts, the ensuing destruction will be enough to wipe out every human in Yunwu Royal City.

The man in black knew that Zhang Ruochen would be cautious about acting in the city. That was why he dared to appear and talk to Zhang Ruochen.

Dealing with you lot is just a matter of flicking my fingers, Zhang Ruochen said nonchalantly.

The Saint Devourer rushed out from behind Zhang Ruochen and deployed over a dozen vines at the speed of lightning, impaling more than a dozen black-robed cultivators before starting to absorb them.

Haha.

Moyins alluring laughter echoed throughout Lin Manor.

The man in black used all of his might to break free from the Saint Devourers vines in midair, and he was frightened to the point that his face turned pale. Zhang Ruochens strength turned out to be far beyond his initial estimation, so he quickly flew out of Lin Manor.

The man knew that it would be difficult for him to escape Zhang Ruochens grasp, so he uttered a threat, Zhang Ruochen, you better not force my hand. Would you believe me if I told you that I was sending the entire populace of the royal city to death with me?

Boom!!

Following a dragons roar, the clouds above the royal city roiled as a massive dragon claw descended from the sky and struck the man, crushing him into a cloud of blood.

Back in Lin Manor, Zhang Ruochen retracted his palm, which contained a Sainthood source, and said impassively, No.

He then walked back into the hall.

He is still a Three-Step Saint King and should not be wasted!

The Saint Devourer popped out of Zhang Ruochens back and turned into Moyin as she summoned a vine, on which dense leaves grew. She started to collect the blood and soul fragments that the man in black left behind after he died.

After the battle at Xumi Dojo, the Saint Devourer had devoured a large number of Heavenly Realm Saint Kings and reached the peak of the Six-Step Saint King rank. She was just one step away from being a Seven-step Saint King.

Now, she naturally wanted to absorb more nutrients and break through the Seven-step Saint King realm as soon as possible.

Zhang Ruochen moved next to the scorched spiritual-power Saint King and placed his hand on her back as he said, You do not need to pretend to be dead before me. Tell me, does Youshen want me killed? Who is your leader? Did you take the people in the palace?

The spiritual-power Saint King slowly raised her head and said with a grin, Zhang Ruochen, you wont have long to live. Once news of your appearance in Yunwu Commandery spreads, those who want to kill you will swarm this place.

Since you refuse to tell me, I can only use special methods to obtain the information I want. Following a pause, Zhang Ruochen spoke again. You are not the only one who can use Soul Search.

The female Saint Kings expression changed right then, and she wanted to rouse her spiritual power to destroy her own Saint Heart.

You still want to blow yourself up when I am already in front of you?

Zhang Ruochen released his own spiritual power and his peak, Level 58 spiritual power immediately suppressed the female Saint Kings spiritual will, stopping her from blowing herself up.

Then, Zhang Ruochen pressed his palm against the top of her head.

A quarter of an hour later, Zhang Ruochen killed the Saint King and limped out of the ancestral hall, tossing her body to the Saint Devourer.

Zhang Ruochens face was rather grim as he started to think.

From that female Saint Kings memories, Zhang Ruochen did not find any information regarding his mother, fourth brother, and ninth sister. He did not know if he should be glad or worried.

Nevertheless, Zhang Ruochen did find some useful intel. For example, they were all indeed cultivators under the Fane of Youshens banner.

The man clad in black was telling the truth. Over a dozen elite masters from the Fane of Youshen had come to Yunwu Commandery to deal with him.

Not long ago, they had found treasured territory in Yunwu Commandery and rushed over. They left about a dozen lower-leveled cultivators to capture humans who were related to Zhang Ruochen to force him to appear.

However, those powerhouses from the Fane of Youshen probably never expected Zhang Ruochen to return to Yunwu Commandery so quickly.

You can deal with me, sure. But harm anyone around me, and I will make sure that your death will not be an easy one. Zhang Ruochens eyes were cold.

As a result of swallowing the sacred pill, the clan elders leg, which had been shattered, fully grew back.

After all, if it was merely a martial arts cultivator of the Tianji realm, a simple sacred pill would be enough for the person to regrow his torn legs. Things would not have been so simple if it had been a Saint who had broken his legs.

That clan elder was surprised to find that his cultivation level had also instantaneously increased to the Tianji Realms Completion Stage.

Moreover, there was still a large amount of healing power from the pill that had yet to be digested.

Was it really just a healing medication?

Every clansman and servant in Lin Manor continued to kneel on the ground, not daring to stand up. They looked at Zhang Ruochen as though they were looking at a god, afraid that they might do something to offend him.

The last time Zhang Ruochen and Concubine Lin came to Lin Manor, they were treated with contempt.

Power!

It was all because Zhang Ruochen held the power to control the life, death, and destiny of many that he gained his current status and identity.

Stand up! In a short while, Yunwu Royal City will likely suffer a devastating attack, and I can take all of you to another world. Are you all willing to leave? Zhang Ruochen said.

Lin Lingshan asked in a low voice, Are we leaving the Kunlun Realm?

Consider it a yes! Zhang Ruochen replied.

The clansmen of the Lin Clan started to hesitate. They already had extensive properties and power there, with their clansmen spreading all over the country. How could they leave just like that?

Lin Chenyu was the patriarch of the Lin Clan, and he bowed before Zhang Ruochen as he said, I heard that there is a rule in the Celestial Court stating, no Saint-level battles can happen in a human city. If such a battle is discovered by the Emissaries Vigilant, those involved will suffer divine punishment.

The battlefield in the Kunlun Realm was very different from the original Zuling Realm battlefield.

It was not a battle directed by the Fane of Merits alone, rather, it was supervised by the Fane of Merits, the Celestial Palace, and the Kunlun Realm. Strict regulations had been issued, whereby cultivators from all the major macroworlds were forbidden from fighting in human cities.

The relationship between the various macroworlds under the Celestial Court is much more complicated than you think. As long as they are not discovered by the Emissaries Vigilant, destroying a city is just a simple matter of lifting their hands or legs. Plus, even if the Celestial Courts macroworlds refuse to act with restraint, what of the Infernal Court? Zhang Ruochen said.

The cultivators from the Infernal Court are here in the Kunlun Realm to bring ruin and destruction.

In the end, Lin Chenyu responded, All members of the Lin Clan, listen to me. Pack up and prepare to leave the Kunlun Realm immediately.

After most of the Lin Clansmen left the hall, Zhang Ruochen asked Lingshan about Concubine Lin.

Concubine Lin placed great importance on familial relationships. No matter how bad the Lin Clan had treated her, she still made sure that she had many contacts within the Lin Clan over the past few years in Yunwu Commandery.

A woman picked her up long ago?

Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised and promptly asked, How long back?

About four months ago, Lin Lingshan said.

Right after, Lingshan described the womans figure and facial features to Zhang Ruochen. Once he listened to her, Zhang Ruochen smiled slightly. It looks like Lingxi understands me. She took Mother away at the very first moment.

Since Lingxi had brought his mother, fourth brother, and ninth sister away, Zhang Ruochen was no longer worried, and his mood significantly improved a moment later.

With the Fane of Youshen not dealing with the Infernal Court and trying to kill him by any means instead, how could Zhang Ruochen not be angry? Thus, he planned to stay in Yunwu Commandery first and play a round of games with them.

Although the battle earlier was short, due to the black-robed mans roar, almost everyone knew that the Ninth Prince of Yunwu Commandery was back!

Yunwu Royal City, inside a restaurant.

A stupid-looking, fat man holding a wine bowl looked in Lin Manors direction and said, That demon, Zhang Ruochen has actually returned to Yunwu Commandery. What should we do? What should we do?

Opposite him was a big burly man with his upper body exposed. A red bandana was wrapped around his head, while a broad machete was tied to his back. He looked just like a butcher.

The butchers face was rugged, and it gave him a fierce image. What are you so nervous about? While there will not be peace wherever Zhang Ruochen goes, it has nothing to do with us, no? Even if he and the Fane of Youshen fight until the end of the world, we will just treat it as a show. Better still, if more were to come, that would make things more interesting.

The chubby fool was also quite powerful. Her Royal Highness is still cultivating at the banks of Luoshui. Since such a big thing has happened, should we go back and report it?

All of them are useless. Some of them may have been cultivating for over two thousand years, but they do not fight often. Besides, its not like Cang Long or Ruan Ling have come to Yunwu Commandery Gosh, darn it All right, All right, if you are that worried, we will hurry back and report it once we are done shopping.

The butcher found the fool to be flat-out boring, and he seemed unhappy.
