Lord of the World: Volume 2

By Ke Dong

"A few hundred years ago, there was a group of humans who were known as' Force Awakened ones'. They have the unimaginable power of ordinary humans and the ability to rule the world. However … Awakened ones are not united and in the end, they are separated into two factions. The group was called the Yang Awakened ones, also known as the Sky Sun Clan. The other faction was the Yin Awakened ones, also known as the Earth Yin Tribe. A hundred years ago, the Sky Sun and Earth Yin Tribes finally had an unprecedented, decisive battle. In the end, the Sky Sun Clan won, and the Earth Yin Tribe was completely wiped out. The world was eventually ruled by the Heavenly Sun tribe, who began to call themselves the Heavenly God race. After the war between Yin and Yang, the Earth Yin Tribe was demoted to the "Earth Devil Race" by the God of Heaven. Although the Earth demons had been killed and wounded in the great battle, the clan's most precious treasure, the "Earth Yin Saint (Demon) Codex", had been left behind and had set off a wave of bloodshed.

CHAPTER 101 - HEAVENLY SWORD CITY

He rested on top of a tall tower in Heavenly Sword City for the night. Early the next morning, he bought some horses, dried food and water from the city, and stayed at the gates of Heavenly Sword City to await the team that would escort Zhu Qingyun back to the Divine Martial City.

Leng Jun was still worried about Zhu Qingyun's safety, he did not believe that Li Sicong would let this matter go. He dared to cause a ruckus at the Divine Martial City, and would even put the Minister of Finance of a remote sect like Bamboo City in his eyes.

Along the way, Leng Jun met several groups of people with Earthly God Palace, who had a better understanding of their strength. Not to mention those four God Envoys, even Li Sicong and Lin Musen whom he had fought against were not people that ordinary people could deal with. Although Zhu Qingyun was only a God Clan cultivator, she wasn't someone from the Divine Palace. The Eastern Sword Sect Sect Master might not be willing to escort him personally. And would those ordinary Swordsman s be these opponents who had activated the Natal Elemental Energy experts? The answer, of course, was no.

The sky was a bit dark. Even though it was close to noon, the sun still couldn't be seen. The sky was slowly filled with dark clouds. It seemed like it would rain at any time. The wind was blowing strongly. On the streets of Heavenly Sword City, many pedestrians held their hats in one hand and their clothes in the other. They bent over and hurried on their way.

Leng Jun saw that it was almost time, and rode out of Heavenly Sword City alone. Leng Jun spurred his horse to run wildly, and only stopped when he reached a hill not far from Heavenly Sword City.

Looking down from the mountain top, he could see the entirety of Heavenly Sword City. At the southern end of Heavenly Sword City, a group of over a hundred people had already stopped at the entrance of Bamboo City. These people were all riding big horses with long swords hanging from their waists. They were all dressed in Swordsman robes with the symbols of the Eastern Sword Sect embroidered on them, looking very majestic and powerful.

In the middle of the group, there were two palanquins, one was gold, the other was red. It was obvious that these two palanquins were prepared for Bamboo City and Zhu Qingyun.

Zhu Qingyun walked out of the door with a slow look of worry on her face. She already knew that Leng Jun had left, but she did not know the details of his departure. She only thought that Leng Jun was really ruthless, that he didn't even want to stay for one more day, and didn't even say a word of farewell.

On top of the hill, Leng Jun naturally could not see all of this, and he could not even see Zhu Qingyun's appearance clearly. He could only confirm that it was Zhu Qingyun's team that was escorting him. Looking from afar, he prayed silently in his heart, hoping that Zhu Qingyun's journey would be safe and sound.

Of course, it was impossible for Leng Jun to leave just like that. He had already made up his mind that he would protect Zhu Qingyun until he arrived at the Divine Martial City safely. In order to not make things difficult for Zhu Qingyun, Leng Jun decided to only stand guard in the dark. Just like this, Leng Jun silently watched Zhu Qingyun from the mountain top as he set off for his homeward journey.

The gloomy weather in Heavenly Sword City did not bring Zhu Qingyun the same dark fate. Their first day's journey was considered smooth, the rain in the sky did not come down, and they did not encounter any dangers along the way. They passed by without any wind or danger until dusk, when Zhu Qingyun and her group rested temporarily in a small town.

Leng Jun had arrived at this small town before them. Right now, he was searching all around the small town but didn't find anything dangerous. After Zhu Qingyun and the rest arrived, Leng Jun observed their resting place again. After discovering that the security was tight, and that nothing unexpected would happen, Leng Jun spurred his horse to leave the town. He also found a high point outside the town where he could observe the situation of the team at any time to rest.

It was not a good night. The rain that had accumulated during the day finally broke out during the night. The torrential rain poured down and there was no place to hide from the rain. Leng Jun was originally resting while leaning against a large tree.

Leng Jun could not bear Zhu Qingyun's handmade long robe to be drenched in the rain, so he took it off, carefully folded it and placed it in his waterproof fish skin pocket.

Other than that robe, Leng Jun no longer had anything else to replace it. Because the coarse clothes that he bought from the old fisherman stained the blood and filth on Zhu Qingyun's clothes, Leng Jun was afraid that she would fall in love with the scenery and thus, discard them long ago. The robe Yiyanying gifted him was also forgotten by him on the Ghost Island because he was overjoyed upon receiving the robe Zhu Qingyun had sewn personally for him.

The current Leng Jun could only lower his upper body and let the violent winds and torrential rain beat upon his body. However, he still had no regrets.

Fortunately, the next morning, the dark clouds dispersed and were replaced by a sunny day.

In the small town, everything was normal for the convoy that escorted Zhu Qingyun. After eating breakfast early, they started to pack up and leave.

Just as Leng Jun wanted to lead his horse to continue exploring the road ahead, he discovered from afar that a group of people was thinking of the direction of the hill. This group of people were all dressed in tight uniforms, and each of them carried a strange looking weapon. It seemed that they were not the good guys.

Most of these people were cold and handsome, but he recognized one of them. It was a fat man with an oily face, sitting on a large chariot. To his left and right, there was a beautiful woman in each of his arms. This person was none other than the person who had taken Zhu Qing hostage in the mountains two days ago, Ye Chang, and threatened Leng Jun.

It turned out that Ye Chang wasn't dead that day, he was only severely injured. He never thought that Zhu Qingyun would have such powerful spirit force. Knowing that he was no match for him, he pretended to be heavily injured and fainted. After Leng Jun carried the unconscious Zhu Qingyun and left, he rode on the mule that Leng Jun left behind and went to call for reinforcements.

He was not far from the mountain when he met a group of people. This group of people were none other than the Sea Serpent Combat Regiment that Li Sicong had requested for help back then.

The leader of the Sea Serpent Group, Jin Changchong, wanted to curry favor with, so he did not hold back when chasing after Leng Jun. However, after searching for half a month in the sea, not only were there no traces of the two, his vice-captain had even mysteriously disappeared.

When they heard the news later on that Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun were already ashore, and the ship they were on was their Sea Serpent Group's ship, they guessed that their Vice Leader had probably been killed.

No matter if he wanted to avenge his vice-captain or continue to climb onto Li Sicong's branch, he could not let Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun go. Hence, in the end, he made a decision. The Sea Serpent Group abandoned the sea shore and wanted to capture Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun.

Jin Changchong and the rest went ashore to look for Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun. On the way, they coincidentally bumped into Ye Chang who had just escaped. Ye Chang wanted to help him gain some merits so that he could seek revenge. Jin Changchong had the same thought, so the two of them clapped together and Ye Chang led the way, chasing after Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun's tracks.

However, they did not expect Leng Jun to change his path midway. They had to search for an entire day before they got the news and went to Heavenly Sword City. They had been wrong for a long time, so they had no choice but to turn around and intercept him.

Volume II

CHAPTER 102 - DIVINE EARTH PALACE 36

Ye Chang was not lightly injured, and upon knowing that he was one of the thirty-six hall masters of the Earthly God Palace, Jin Changchong flattered him in every possible way. Not only did he manage to find two fireworks women for him, he even prepared a large carriage for him to spare him all the hardships on the way.

Jin Changchong's main purpose was to get Ye Chang to lead the way for him, and to make use of the fact that he had contacts in the Earthly God Palace to find Leng Jun or Leng Jun first, so that he could capture the two of them and make a huge contribution to Li Sicong, so that his Sea Serpent Group could be incorporated into the Earthly God Palace. At the same time, he could become a hall master as well.

Ye Chang was the same. He did not have a single subordinate beside him, and was completely a commander in chief. He just so happened to be able to use Jin Changchong to capture Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun. On one hand, he wanted to take revenge for himself, and on the other hand, he could take credit for in front of Li Sicong.

Ye Chang had originally thought that Leng Jun and the rest would continue to move forward, but he did not expect that Leng Jun would change his direction midway. They had been chasing for an entire day and night before they finally got the news that Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun had gone to Heavenly Sword City.

When they knew that the Combat Regiment of the Heavenly Sword City would escort Zhu Qingyun to the Divine Martial City, they anxiously turned their heads to intercept him. However, they did not expect that before they were about to meet the convoy that was escorting Zhu Qingyun, they were actually stopped by Leng Jun.

Jin Changchong did not recognize Leng Jun. Seeing a young man standing horizontally in the middle of the road, he took a step forward and said: Those in front, quickly get out of the way!

Jin Changchong did not know who Leng Jun was, but Ye Chang recognized him instantly. He quickly said to Jin Changchong, Captain Jin, this is the person we need to find.

Only after hearing Ye Chang's reminder, did Jin Changchong started to carefully observe Leng Jun. Seeing the scar on Leng Jun's face, did he finally remember what Li Sicong had told him before, that there was a very deep scar on his face.

Jin Changzhong laughed and said, Truly, there is no place for you to look for broken iron shoes. You can get them without any trouble. I was going to look for you, but you actually brought us here. Men, seize this brat! "

Just as Jin Changchong finished speaking, two people behind him answered and spurred their horses to rush towards Leng Jun.

Seeing that, Ye Chang anxiously reminded: Captain Jin, this brat is very cunning, we must not let his guard down.

Jin Changchong curled his lips as he smiled and said, Hall Master Ye, I think you should be afraid of being bitten by a snake for a period of time. You can just watch on as a wet behind the ears child tries to show how much ability he has."

Before Jin Changchong could finish his words, two shrill cries came from the front. When he looked over, his two subordinates were already decapitated.

Of his two subordinates, one was called Guo Gang and the other was called Yu Zhong. Just like Jin Changchong, the two of them also wanted to make a big contribution. Therefore, when Jin Changchong said that he wanted to take Leng Jun down, the two of them looked at each other and took the hint before they charged towards Leng Jun together.

The two of them each held a large knife, and swung it at Leng Jun. Leng Jun did not even look at the two of them. He took out his Violet Emperor Sword, and with a tap of his feet on the stirrup, he flew out. As his Violet Emperor Sword swept across the air, Guo Gang and Yu Zhong did not know what happened. Only after those two heads fell onto the ground did they react. They each let out a short scream before dying.

Leng Jun hacked off two heads in one move, his two feet made a point in the air, before flying back to his mount, as if the two heads in front of him had nothing to do with him.

Guo Gang and Yu Zhong were considered quite strong in the Sea Serpent Group, but not too high. Jin Changchong had never met an opponent on the surface of the sea, so he had developed a proud personality with his eyes at the top. He didn't think that Leng Jun was that strong, he only thought that his subordinates had underestimated their opponent, which was why they had such a result.

Thinking about this, Jin Changchong loudly shouted, Bauman, Wang Hu, you two attack him at once, regardless of life or death! Remember, be careful. If something goes wrong again, I won't let you off."

There were a total of three vice captains of the Sea Serpent Group. Apart from the already dead He Re, the other two were Baron and Wang Hu. When the two of them heard Jin Changchong personally call out the names, they drew their weapons and at least walked out from the ranks.

Oman's eyes were black and strong, clearly quite strong. This could be seen from the two hammers in his hands. Wang Hu had an ordinary appearance and body, but he did not have any special characteristics. He was one of those people that could not be found in the crowd, and the weapon in his hand was only an ordinary longsword.

The two of them rode forward. Wang Hu asked, Old Ba, which one of us will go first?

Barman looked like an idiot as he spoke in an honest tone. When he heard Wang Hu's question, he grinned and said, Old man, you're shouting that we're going on stage together with you!

Wang Hu also gave an evil smile and said, Then what are you waiting for? Go for it!

Alright! Barman maintained his simple and honest tone.

With that, he swung his sledgehammer at Leng Jun's head.

Leng Jun did the same and flew up once more. With a sweep of the Purple Emperor Sword, he headed towards Oman's neck.

With a dang sound, Barman's head was still hanging on his neck, while Leng Jun's Purple Emperor Sword cut down on his other hammer. It looked like Barman was very stupid, but he was not slow. He was actually able to use his hammer to protect his vitals before Leng Jun arrived.

After blocking Leng Jun's attack, Barman suddenly shouted, Brother Hu, what are you waiting for?

Hearing Ba Man's words, Leng Jun realised that Wang Hu was no longer the horse that he was riding on. Just as he was about to look around for traces of Wang Hu, a sword suddenly appeared under Ba Man's horse and stabbed towards his throat.

This move was out of his expectations. He hastily raised his head and did a backflip in the air before dodging the sword. However, there was no way for him to borrow the force to return to his mount, so he could only float to the ground.

Wang Hu came out from under the horse's body and stood beside it. He said with dissatisfaction, Old Ba, it's all your fault. Why are you shouting so much? Did you let him run away?

Barman also dismounted from his horse, placing the sledgehammer on his shoulder and said with a silly smile, Brother Hu, I'm sorry. I won't do it next time.

Although he said that, but Barman and Wang Hu never thought that they would be able to capture Leng Jun in one move. They only wanted to force Leng Jun off his horse. Because they live at sea all year round, they are not good at horse warfare.

CHAPTER 103 - TWO HAMMERS

Seeing that he had successfully forced Leng Jun off his horse, Barman wielded his two hammers and walked towards Leng Jun. Barman looked stupid and foolish, but in reality, he was not a dull person. Moreover, his strength was only second to the Guild Leader of the Sea Serpent Group, Jin Changchong. As the two hammers continued to swing, a strong gale began to swirl in front of him. Obviously, he had also activated his Natal Elemental Energy, otherwise, it would not be so powerful.

The wind generated by the two hammers swirled around him like armor. Leng Jun tried to think of how many times he would stab him, but he immediately bumped into his hammer. Clang! The iron hammer was not light, it smashed onto Leng Jun's Purple Emperor Sword and made his hands go numb. He almost dropped the Purple Emperor Sword a few times, this made him not dare to act rashly again.

He didn't dare to make a move, but the person in front of him did. However, the one who attacked wasn't Oman, but the elusive Wang Hu. Every time when Barman's hammer forced Leng Jun to retreat, he would suddenly stab his sword towards Leng Jun. Furthermore, every move he made was extremely strange, causing Leng Jun to feel extremely uncomfortable. And every time, Wang Hu would not continue to fight. Every time he stabbed the air, he would once again hide behind Barman's back, waiting for an opportunity to strike again. This made every time Leng Jun tried to dodge his attacks, he would not be able to find a trace of him even if she wanted to counterattack.

On Leng Jun's side, he was busy, but on Jin Changchong's side, he was extremely pleased with himself. He continuously glanced at Ye Chang, feeling very proud in his heart, and thought to himself: "This hall master of Earthly God Palace isn't much, he's actually scared so much that he's like this, a smelly brat that hasn't even grown hair. Looks like the strength of these Palace Masters aren't that great. If I were to enter the Earthly God Palace, I might even be able to become one of the Palace Masters of the Four Great Palaces.

Jin Changchong was fantasizing about the future of Earthly God Palace, but he did not know that a change had already occurred in the arena in reality.

For a time, Barman and Wang Hu didn't know what to do. Just as they were sticking to each other, they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind them. Leng Jun looked over from the corner of his eyes and realised that the person who came was the scout who was escorting Zhu Qingyun and his team at the very front.

There were a total of two people on the horse. From afar, they saw that when Leng Jun was fighting against Barman and Wang Hu, he had already stopped the horse. One of them stayed where he was and continued to observe. The other turned his horse around and went back to report to the group.

Leng Jun knew in his heart that the convoy that was escorting Zhu Qingyun was about to arrive, so he had to quickly settle this battle. Otherwise, not only would Zhu Qingyun be in danger, she himself would also be facing Zhu Qingyun again. That was the scene that he didn't want to see the most.

Thinking of this, Leng Jun made up his mind, he was prepared to finish the battle quickly. Before, when he was facing Lin Musen, he had already used the spirit energy from his Earth Yin Clan, so he did not know if Ye Chang had seen him in the dark. In this situation, the other techniques would probably not be able to finish the battle in a short time, so he could only take the risk and give it another try.

Having made a decision, Leng Jun secretly used his Earth Yin Clan's spirit energy, and slowly injected his spirit energy into the Purple Emperor Sword. As for the white and transparent spirit beast, it also slowly turned purple.

The Purple Emperor Sword had one characteristic, and that was the ability to absorb the Earth Yin Clan's Origin Energy. Purple Emperor Sword s that absorbed elemental energy would be able to greatly increase the power of their elemental energy. Now, Leng Jun could only force out a Elemental Energy Sphere the size of a bird's egg, and the diameter of the origin energy wave produced would not exceed the size of the palm of his hand. But for Purple Emperor Sword that had absorbed spirit energy, its power was vastly different.

Barman's warhammer danced like a fierce tiger, but the wind created by the warhammer blocked the line of sight of the others.

The Purple Emperor Sword in Leng Jun's hands was already filled with spirit energy, so he suddenly took a few steps back. Then, he used the new technique he learned on the Ghost Isle — Half-Moon Chop!

Many of these moves were named by Leng Jun himself using the form and characteristics of his own techniques. The same was true for the Half-Moon Chop.

The sun was the sun and the moon was the moon. Since it was a martial art from Earth Yin Clan, it was very appropriate to name it as the moon that represented the yin. And Leng Jun's move, Half-Moon Chop, was even more well-deserved of its name. The Purple Emperor Sword that had accumulated Earth Yin spirit energy hacked out from above, an arc of elemental energy blade light shot out.

The light of the blade was curved, the front edge was white, and the tail was dragging a blue glow. If he were to forget about it, wouldn't it be the same as the crescent moon in the sky?

The rise of the Barman Hammer Dance simply did not notice Leng Jun's movements. By the time he saw the Half Moon Slaying Blade, the blade light had already cut through the wind armor formed by his sledgehammer. Even his huge body was easily penetrated by the Half Moon Slash.

Not only that, even Wang Hu, who had been hiding behind him, was penetrated by the Half Moon Slash's remnant might.

Oman's body instantly came to a standstill, as did Wang Hu behind him.

With the cover of Barman's huge body, Jin Changchong, Ye Chang and the rest did not know what had happened. However, they felt that it was a bit strange when they saw Barman and Wang Hu not moving at all.

From afar, twenty to thirty Steel Cavalry galloped over, escorting Zhu Qingyun. They were about to reach the place where Leng Jun and the rest were at.

Leng Jun knew he could not delay any longer. Using the cover of Barman's body, he took a peek at the positions of Jin Changchong and the rest. It was already not enough to be afraid of Ye Chang's serious injuries. The rest were just small fry, Leng Jun's goal was only Jin Changchong.

Jin Changchong didn't know what was happening in front of him, but his two vice captains were standing there motionlessly. As he urged his horse forward, he said, Barman, Wang Hu, what are you two up to?

Before he finished his sentence, Leng Jun suddenly jumped out from the side of Ba Man's body, and used Gazing Moon to stab towards Jin Changchong's throat.

Jin Changchong turned pale with fright, and quickly raised his head, barely dodging Leng Jun's sword. Then, with a flick of his hand, he took out his personal weapon, a pure-steel chain that was as thick as a bowl.

The golden hair shook the iron chains, one end of the iron chain wanting to hit Leng Jun on the head. Leng Jun seemed to have expected that his sword would stab into thin air, and in that moment, his body suddenly became erratic, the iron chain had already passed through his body, and it was actually just an afterimage of Leng Jun.

When Leng Jun appeared again, he was already standing on the butt of Jin Changchong's mount. When Jin Changchong was still feeling complacent about his own iron chain hitting his opponent, Leng Jun's palm had already mercilessly landed on his head.

A wave of Essence Qi was released from Leng Jun's palm, and from top to bottom, the horse he was riding on was completely enveloped by the wave of Essence Qi.

Jin Changchong didn't even know how he died, but somehow, he died. His body, along with his mount, fell to the ground.

CHAPTER 104 - THOSE WHO WORKED FOR KIM CHANG-CHONG

When Jin Changchong's subordinates saw this situation, they immediately surrounded him with a hu la sound. However, none of them dared to take a step forward while they all looked at each other in dismay.

Only Ye Chang alone, upon seeing this, quickly instructed the people carrying the carriage to quickly leave the place. But just as the carriage turned around, Leng Jun had already appeared in front of Ye Chang, and the Purple Emperor Sword in his hand was already at Ye Chang's neck.

After Jin Changchong died, Ye Chang became the backbone of Jin Changchong's subordinates, and when they saw that Ye Chang was being held hostage by Leng Jun, they could no longer stay calm. They immediately surrounded Leng Jun in the middle, with all kinds of weapons aimed at him.

Leng Jun looked around at the group of people, his face showing no fear. He suddenly went in front of Ye Chang, and said without any emotion: I'll let you go today, but don't let me meet you again, or else I won't be lenient anymore.

Ye Chang was already scared out of his wits, he never thought that Jin Changzhong would be so weak that he could not withstand a single blow. Even more so, he never expected that Leng Jun's strength was terrifying to such an extent.

Hearing that Leng Jun wanted to let his go, he anxiously said: Alright, alright, we will leave now.

Saying this, he waved his hand, signaling the surrounding people to retreat. The Sea Serpent Group was currently without a leader, and since Ye Chang had already spoken, they could only listen to Ye Chang's orders and gradually retreat.

Seeing that the Sea Serpent Group had retreated, Ye Chang finally said in a trembling voice: Your sword …

Leng Jun glanced at the group of people who had already felt the Combat Regiment of the Eastern Sword Sect in front of him.

Ye Chang had been scared out of his wits so no matter what Leng Jun said, he would not object. He hastily shouted at the members of the Sea Serpent Group, What are you thinking about? Why aren't you carrying away your help and the dead bodies!

Only then did the members of the Sea Serpent Group regain their senses. They hurriedly carried the corpses of Jin Changzhong, Barman, Wang Hu, Guo Gang, and Yu Zhong away, fleeing in panic.

It wasn't because Leng Jun didn't want to kill him, it was because he didn't want Zhu Qingyun, who had rushed over, to see him kill someone, nor did he want her to see Ye Chang. He didn't want her to remember the scene where she killed someone, which was why he let Ye Chang go.

Just as Ye Chang and the rest left, the Eastern Sword Sect Swordsman s had already rushed over. The leader was a small commander, and seeing that Leng Jun was the only one left, he asked: Hey, this is … Brave warrior, may I ask what happened here?

Leng Jun glanced at the commander of the Swordsman, threw down the words have nothing to do with you, then leapt onto his horse and galloped away.

The Swordsman looked at each other, not knowing what had happened. Seeing that there was no one left, they could only turn their horses around and return to the group to escort Zhu Qingyun.

Amongst the group, Zhu Qingyun noticed that the carriage had stopped for a long time and wanted to see what happened. She lifted up the carriage's curtain and looked out, just in time to see Leng Jun riding his horse out.

Leng Jun's figure had long since been deeply imprinted into Zhu Qingyun's mind. Even though it was only a single glance, she was still able to recognize with a glance that the person who had left was his beloved Leng Jun.

The leader of the Swordsman returned to the group. He first went to the vicinity of the golden carriage that Bamboo City was riding on, and said to the Bamboo City inside the carriage: Sir, there was only a fight in front. Now that everyone has dispersed, we can continue our journey.

Bamboo City didn't leave the carriage, but simply said, Then let's continue on our journey!

The group continued to move forward, but Zhu Qingyun's mood suddenly became clear. After he heard the commander's words, he knew that it was definitely Leng Jun who was still escorting her along the way and could not help but feel a sweet sensation in his heart. It seemed that the one she loved wasn't as heartless as she thought.

Divine Martial City, everything was the same as when Leng Jun had left, it was just that the tense atmosphere caused by the incident of the Flower Harvester had already been dispelled.

Returning to the Divine Martial City, Leng Jun did not go to the Qingyan Pavilion, but instead went straight back to the Hua Linglong Family Inn. As soon as he walked in, a person walked out from the inn. When the person saw Leng Jun, he said excitedly: Brother, you're back.

Leng Jun raised his head and saw that the person who had walked out was none other than this inn's Shaodong — — Hua Linglong.

After a month had passed, Hua Linglong was still the same as always. Despite wearing the uniform with Divine Martial City s, he still held the title of Ten Captains.

When Hua Linglong saw that Leng Jun had returned, he was obviously very excited. He pulled Leng Jun's hand and asked him: "Brother, where have you been these past few days?

Leng Jun was moved. In the three years that he had spent in the Swordsman Restaurant in Tianxuan City, his biggest gain was making friends with Hua Linglong and Little Wu Zongzi. Ever since he had lost both his parents at the age of five, Leng Jun no longer had any relatives. However, the fact that he was accompanied by Mr Wu, and his wife, and now a brother like Hua Linglong made Leng Jun feel that he was not alone. On this continent, there were still relatives that cared about him.

Hua Linglong instructed the shopkeeper to prepare some dishes and wine, and then pulled Leng Jun back to the small courtyard. After sitting down on the stone table in the center of the courtyard, only then did Leng Jun have the time to ask: "Big Brother Hua, why are you so free today?

Hua Linglong glanced at Leng Jun, and complained: Isn't it because of you? You suddenly disappeared, and there was no news at all, causing me to come in every day to ask for your information. It was until I heard that you had appeared in Heavenly Sword City a few days ago, and that you had come to Divine Martial City. I had basically stayed in the shop for the past few days. Where have you been all this month?

Leng Jun sighed, and said: It's a long story, I originally wanted to go and save them, but who would have thought that so many things would happen along the way, to the point that I was delayed until now.

After that, Leng Jun explained the process of saving Zhu Qingyun, including how he encountered a storm and accidentally broke into the Ghost Isle, and how Heavenly Sword City was ambushed, etc. He only concealed the matter regarding Qing Hao and Feng Xi, because he did not want the lives of the two seniors to be disturbed by the commoners. Of course, he did not tell Hua Linglong that he had learnt Earth Elemental Energy. It was not that he did not trust Hua Linglong, but this matter was too major and the implications were too great. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he would not reveal anything.

After he finished speaking, Leng Jun let out a heavy sigh, and said: Unfortunately, I only saved Miss Zhu!

CHAPTER 105 - HUA LING LONG AND LENG JUN

However, Hua Linglong smiled and said: "Bro, you don't need to worry about that. Most of the people who were kidnapped have already been rescued, and there's only one missing person. Sigh, although he had already saved them, the innocence of these girls had already been tainted. In the future, their lives would be worse than death.

Of course, Leng Jun understood the meaning of Hua Linglong's words. A woman's reputation was more important than her life, how could anyone be willing to marry a girl that was kidnapped by a rapist? Their lives in the future would probably be spent under the fingers of others.

Leng Jun was unwilling to think about the consequences. He could only ask Hua Linglong: Big Brother Hua, who saved those women?

Hua Linglong laughed and said: Brother, you really left at the wrong time these few days. Otherwise, you would have had the grace to witness the glory of the three great sword gods.

Originally, Yin Zhijie had led the experts above the centurion level of Divine Martial City to chase after Li Sicong and the others, but in the end, they returned in defeat and Yin Zhijie was also severely injured. Fortunately, spirit medicines for injuries were always kept in the office of the Divine Martial City, so after they returned to the Divine Martial City, they immediately helped Yin Zhijie consume them. Yin Zhijie had managed to preserve his life, but the arm of one of the three Vice Commanders, Zhao Fangluo, was never able to be reborn.

Yin Zhijie was obviously very disappointed, he was originally filled with confidence, with a heart full of ambitions, wanting to take advantage of the temporary position of Divine Martial City Commander to do great things in order to bring honor to the East Astral Sect that he was currently in, but he did not expect that the first fire he would take over would also be his greatest opportunity, yet he was struck by a bucket of cold water and poured it on his head, extinguishing it completely.

Yin Zhijie's youthful ego suffered a huge blow. Like a deflated ball, he sat in the great hall of the Escort Regiment yamen with an extremely lonely expression. At this moment, a person walked in from outside the door.

Yin Zhijie raised his head and saw the person approaching, he anxiously stood up, walked around the table and walked in front of him, with his legs bent, he kneeled on the ground and said respectfully: Master Ancestor, Yin Zhijie pays his respects to Master Ancestor! Not knowing that the Ancestral Ancestor has come, Yin Zhijie did not reply from far away, I beg for Master Ancestor's forgiveness!

The person who had come was none other than one of the three sword gods, Tong Jiuzhou. Tong Jiu Prefecture used to be a Sect Master, but later on, they took over the post of Divine Martial City Commander. Afterwards, they became the first non-God Clan person to be allowed to enter the Divine Palace.

Tong Jiu Zhou's eyes were high up, he did not even look at Yin Zhijie who was kneeling on the ground, and only used his nose to say En, before saying: Get up, come with me. I'm going to introduce someone to you.

After that, without waiting for Yin Zhijie's reply, Tong Jiu Zhou turned and walked out of the hall. Seeing that, Yin Zhijie stood up and quickly followed.

Outside the main hall of the main yamen, all the officials of the Escort Regiment, including the tenth, centurion, and thousand-man commanders, were present. Even Zhao Fanghuo, who had one of his arms broken, was obediently standing at the side of the stairs outside the yamen along with Sun Xueshan and Liu Xuanren, facing the person standing in the middle of the courtyard outside the gate. All of them had their heads lowered, not daring to let out any sound from beginning to end.

Tong Jiu Prefecture walked out of the main yamen, turned around and saw that Yin Zhijie had followed them out as well. Then, he pointed at the man standing with his hands behind his back and said: This is the chief instructor of the Divine Officer in Divine Palace. Lord Luo Tian Luo, come and greet him.

Yin Zhijie was shocked, he did not expect to actually see two legendary figures in one day. He hurriedly went forward to kneel on the ground and loudly said: Divine Martial City Commander Yin Zhijie, greets Instructor Luo.

As Yin Zhijie kneeled on the ground, everyone in the courtyard, other than Tong Jiuzhou, kneeled on the ground and shouted, We pay our respects to Instructor Luo.

This Luo Tian was the head of the three great sword gods in the Divine Palace, and the position of main instructor was merely a title given to outsiders. Like the other two Sword Gods, Tong Jiuzhou and Golden Mountain Stone also carried the title of assistant chief instructor.

Luo Tian's identity was extremely mysterious. Other than the Divine King, no one knew where he came from, not even Tong Jiuzhou and Jin Shan Shi, the three Sword Gods. However, his strength was undoubtedly the strongest amongst the three of them. This was something that no one could doubt.

Luo Tian could be said to be the strongest person in the Heavenly God Continent. Even the four great heavenly kings were slightly afraid of him, yet this legendary person actually walked out of the Divine Palace. How could anyone not be shocked by this?

Luo Tian glanced at Yin Zhijie and said: I have something to ask you, stand up and speak.

Luo Tian's tone was calm and unperturbed, but it seemed as if he possessed a mysterious power that forced others to do as he said. Yin Zhijie already had this feeling, he felt as if someone was trying to pull him up from the ground. Before he could even react, he had already stood up. Seeing him stand up, the other Escort Regiment officials all obediently stood up.

Luo Tian looked at Yin Zhijie and asked: "I heard that you fought with the people from Earth Divine King. How strong are they?

Yin Zhijie hurriedly said: Reporting to chief instructor, halfway through, we were ambushed by people from the Earthly God Palace, their strength is indeed not weak, and almost everyone activated their Natal Elemental Energy, causing most of the people from the Escort Regiment to be unable to match them, resulting in us falling into a miserable defeat. Furthermore, the people we meet with are only the Palace Masters of the Earthly God Palace, we have not met the Earth Divine King personally.

When Luo Tian heard this, he asked again: Do you know where they're hiding?

Yin Zhijie tremblingly replied: According to the report, those people should still be on the Earth God Ship they are riding. The Earthly Divine ship should have stopped at a place not too far away from the sea entrance, so it should still be there right now.

Luo Tian said expressionlessly, Get someone to prepare the horses. Find someone to lead the way for me. I'm going to meet those people.

When Yin Zhijie heard that Luo Tian wanted to help, he was overjoyed. He really didn't know who on this land mass would be a match for Allheaven. If he was willing to
