Chapter 707: Genius from another region

Chapter 707: Genius from another region

Kuiming, kuiluo's son, middle-stage rank-6.

Her father, kui Luo, was the commander of the Imperial City's guards. Aside from the two rank-9s, kui Luo was the governor's most trusted subordinate in monster Sunflower City.

After all, being in charge of the palace guards meant that they were responsible for protecting the palace and the city Lord's residence.

This could be seen from the fact that kuiming lived in the city Lord's mansion.

Kui Luo didn't have his own mansion, but he had his own courtyard in the back garden of the city Lord's mansion.

Fang ping had entered kui Luo's residence.

This time, Feng miesheng and Li an represented the forces of the monster plant Royal Court and came to the outer area to select talented martial artists to enter the Forbidden Zone.

"Li an ..."

Fang ping thought of the Crown Prince of the monster plant Royal Court.

The son of the Lord that even old Zhang valued!

In kui Ming's words, he was a timid, arrogant, and ignorant guy.

Kui Ming didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning between the lines was that he looked down on li an.

Fang ping listened for a while and mumbled.

Cowardly?

Arrogant?

Previously, he had heard from old Zhang and old man Li that a great battle had broken out in Magic city's catacombs the other day. Li an and Feng miesheng had overestimated themselves and led their men to try and kill old man Li. In the end, they were chased by old man Li until they were scared witless.

"Is he really arrogant and cowardly?"

Fang ping was suspicious. There were such people, and many of them. There was no lack of such people in the history books. The crown princes of many dynasties were all useless. This was very common.

However, there was no lack of people who were extremely shrewd!

He had to endure, lie low, and wait for the right time.

Which one was li an?

"Forget it. Let's not care about him. We just have to be careful."

In the world of martial Dao, strength was the most important thing, and schemes were secondary.

Li an was only a rank-7, not that powerful yet. It was scarier for an ultimate nightmare like old Zhang to plot and scheme.

After asking about the general situation, Fang ping suddenly said in the end,"What combat skills do you have that you're good at? let's see."

Kui Ming's eyes showed a slight suspicion. Combat skills?

Why ask me about my combat skills?

Fang ping furrowed his brows and said,"just use it when I tell you to. Did your father, kui Luo, teach you your combat skills?" If so, I'll use it and see how good supremacy kui Luo's combat technique is! Combat skills also represent a powerhouse's comprehension of martial arts. I want to see how far your father is from the divine general realm!"

Kuiming was relieved to hear that.

Very quickly, he had displayed a set of combat techniques.

There was a slight difference in the cultivation system between humans and the catacombs martial artists, but the essence was still similar.

Combat techniques were also an application of power.

"Humans use vitality force, while the catacombs martial artists use energy force.

In the past, Fang ping might not have been able to see anything.

Now, however, with the use of the kuiming combat technique, Fang ping could sense the general situation after careful comprehension. It was a new combination of power.

When it came to the control and comprehension of strength, kui Ming, a rank-6 martial artist, was far from Fang ping.

As kuiming executed his combat technique, Fang ping began to simulate his strength combination method. Soon, a ball of energy appeared in Fang Ping's Center. It was like a tree root or a whip.

Fang ping struck with one move, and the energy tree whip produced an explosive sound.

Fortunately, Fang Ping's materialized object in The Golden House had the function of a barrier. Otherwise, such a loud noise would have been discovered long ago.

Kuiming was slightly stunned when he saw Fang ping use the same move as he did. Soon, his face was filled with respect. He said quickly,"Daren is far-sighted, this lowly one has embarra.s.sed himself."

Fang ping frowned slightly,"just this?" Even though it wasn't bad, its efficiency in unleas.h.i.+ng one's strength was extremely low. Was this the only combat technique that supremacy kuiluo could create?

If that's all, then I'll be very disappointed. "

The strength of a combat technique was determined by how effective it was in unleas.h.i.+ng one's power.

Control was control, and display was display.

With a vitality of 10000 Cal and a control of 5000Cal, without the combination of combat technique reorganization, 5000Cal would be 5000Cal.

However, the existence of combat techniques allowed the 5000Cal vitality to be more effective and increased.

The greater the amplification, the stronger the combat technique.

Therefore, the experts who created powerful combat techniques had extremely high control over their own power and a deep understanding of the essence of power.

The combat technique that kuiluo had created was just average.

"My Lord, this is the outer region after all. My father is inexperienced and can't be compared to you," kui Ming quickly said. "Daren is under the command of the Huai clan King and has seen many King realm experts ..."

My father has always been under King sunflower's command, and he hasn't even left monster Sunflower City that many times. Thus, he's naturally far inferior to you, Milord ..."

Kuiming flattered and explained.

It was only natural that the experts from the outer regions were not as knowledgeable as the ones from the forbidden zones.

There were many rank-9s in the Forbidden Zone. Under the command of a true king, there were at least five to six rank-9s, and at most, there were more than ten rank-9s.

In the outer region, there were two in one city and one of them was a demon. Their cultivation system was different.

In other words, in the outer area, there was actually only one ninth stage powerhouse in each city.

This rank-9, on the other hand, was high and mighty, hailed as a King.

In such a situation, it was impossible to count on these King tiers to give you pointers.

Therefore, most of the powerhouses from the outer region were fumbling around on their own. At kui Luo's level, it would be considered fair if the city Lord did not suppress him under normal circ.u.mstances. How could he possibly guide him to enter rank-9 and compete with him?

Seeing this, Fang ping did not say anything more. He said, "You're also going to partic.i.p.ate in the tournament tomorrow?"

"I'm lucky to get a spot ..."Kuiming quickly smiled.

Fang ping raised his eyebrows slightly.

After kui Ming's explanation, Fang ping understood.

Shady business!

The law of the jungle was even more distinct in the catacombs.

Naturally, it would not be too troublesome for the son of a rank-8 powerhouse to enter the restricted area.

City Lord monster sunflower had children, but he didn't have many. Moreover, it wasn't too troublesome for the children of a level nine expert to enter the Forbidden Zone.

In other words, the children of rank-8 who partic.i.p.ated in the youth tournament had the biggest background.

Kuiming had already secured a spot, but he was just putting on an act.

Tomorrow, the geniuses from the outer city and the capital would compete for the top ten spots. On kui Ming's side, there would be two other young men of similar status partic.i.p.ating. In total, there were 13 people competing for ten spots.

At this moment, kuiming didn't know that li an had agreed to two more spots.

Previously, the announcement stated that there were 10 spots.

13 people, fighting for 10 spots.

Among them, not all the geniuses from the outer city and the Imperial City were rank-6. There were some rank-5s. Three of these people would be eliminated, which was why kuiming said that he had obtained a spot.

This was because it was almost impossible for them to be eliminated.

At this point, Fang ping continued to ask questions.

At this moment, kuiming felt that something was wrong.

Fang ping asked him how he usually interacted with his father, whether he was familiar with King sunflower, and how he should address him ...

In the city Lord's mansion, who were his acquaintances, and their daily life ...

These were not in line with what Fang ping had said before.

Previously, Fang ping had said that he wanted to find out more about Feng miesheng. But now, a Supreme realm powerhouse was so concerned about the life of a rank-6 martial artist like him. Why was this?

Seeing that kui Ming was confused, Fang ping said in a low voice,"Since you want to enter the Forbidden Zone and the Royal Court ... And I just happened to run into you, kuiming, are you willing to join His Excellency King Huai and serve him?"

Kuiming was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed,""This lowly one is willing!"

"Then your current task is to become a subordinate of the Maple King. I need to understand everything about you in detail! If I don't know everything about you, how can I believe that you have the ability to break into the Maple King's internal affairs?

Without the corresponding ability, it's fine if you die, but if you ruin King Huai's plans, your death is not worth pitying!

Tell me about your situation in detail, and let me see if you can do it!"

Kuiming was struggling. Break into the internal department of the Maple King?

That was a true king!

Fang ping continued,"don't worry. You're not qualified to come into contact with the Maple King. I'm only asking you to follow Feng miesheng!" Feng miesheng is a good-for-nothing, but he's coveting the position of the Lord of the Imperial court. We need to get all the information we can on him.

Whether you can hide it from Feng miesheng will depend on your abilities!

If you can't even hide it from Feng miesheng, then you're also trash. The Huai clan King doesn't need tras.h.!.+

"If you want to stand out, if you want to leave the outer region, if you want to become a city Lord in the future, you need to show your abilities.

I'll give you the chance!

It's up to you if you can seize the opportunity!"

Kui Ming did not care about Fang Ping's previous question anymore. King Huai wanted him to be a spy and infiltrate the internal department of King Feng ...

This mission was extremely dangerous!

However, this was the only way to enter King Huai's line of sight. Even his father could not easily come into contact with a true king.

"Rank-8 powerhouses are not weak. With a golden body, they're much stronger than rank-7.

However, there was no lack of powerhouses in the Forbidden Zone.

There were only so many true Kings. Who didn't want to interact more with them? they might be able to gain a lot and enter the divine general realm or even the true king realm!

Kuiming was no longer surprised that Fang ping wanted to show off his abilities and understand his detailed information. Instead, he felt that Fang ping was not just brus.h.i.+ng him off. He was serious.

Otherwise, there was no need for a rank-8 powerhouse to know all these.

He wasn't an important person.

Although his father was also a rank-8, he was only an outer region rank-8. There was nothing for Fang ping to scheme against.

Then, kuiming started to explain his situation.

To agree to Fang Ping's request, to become a chess piece under King Huai's command, to stand out in the world-this was everyone's intention.

Otherwise, even if he entered the restricted area, he would only be an insignificant small figure.

The Maple King obviously did not think highly of a minor character like him.

Not to mention the Maple King, even Feng mie Sheng and the others were extremely arrogant. These few days, he had tried to curry favor with them, but Feng mie Sheng did not even look at him, a middle-stage battle-general martial artist.

And now, the opportunity had come.

As Fang ping listened, he calculated the time and sensed the movements in the outside world.

Old man Li's long howl had already risen three times, which meant that he could not hold on much longer.

He was fighting two rank-9s, both of whom were powerhouses of the origin Dao. Although he was strong, he could not hold on for too long. Moreover, if the battle dragged on, it would be easy for powerhouses from other cities to come out.

After estimating the time, Fang ping nodded slightly and smiled."Not bad. Although I don't know enough, it's enough."

Kuiming's face was filled with joy ... But soon, the joy disappeared.

Fang ping was direct, and without hesitation, he destroyed his mentality.

With rank-8 strength, it was not difficult to kill a rank-6.

After getting rid of this guy and putting his corpse into the origin s.p.a.ce, Fang ping changed into his clothes and rubbed his cheeks hard. The muscles in his body began to squirm, and his cells began to regenerate.

After a while, Fang ping appeared in the room.

In the room, Fang ping looked at his reflection in the crystal mirror. Just like kuiming, his short hair also grew in an instant. The color of his hair changed slightly, and soon, he was no different from kuiming.

The aura on his body was the same as kuiming, nothing different.

"What kuiming said might not be true, we need to find someone to verify it!"

Fang ping was not sure if kui Ming was telling the truth. He might not be able to tell if this guy was lying. He would have to find someone to verify it.

The back garden of the city Lord's mansion was still in chaos.

A large number of guards were on high alert and patrolling the back garden.

Fang ping left the room. Very quickly, a group of Imperial Guards pa.s.sed by. When they saw Fang ping, they quickly greeted him,"Young commander, it's chaotic outside. Please don't go out, just in case!"

Fang ping nodded slightly, his face serious and cold, with some worry. He raised his head and looked outside the city, muttering,"I wonder if father is alright ..."

The leading battle general of the Imperial Guards said hurriedly,"The king and the Lord Protector have already defeated the longevity sword. The Grand Commander also has the advantage and will return victorious soon. There is no need to worry, young commander."

"This general knows. I want you to speak too much. Back down!"

"Yes!"

Although this person was also a rank-6 martial artist, he did not dare to say much at this moment and immediately left with his men.

At the same time.

Outside the city.

As Qin Fengqing fought, he transmitted his voice,""Iron head! We have to kill our way into the city Lord's mansion, create some trouble, and kill some people!"

Li Hansong sent a rank-7 martial artist flying with one punch and said telepathically,"This is a little troublesome! "There's still quite a number of powerhouses in the mayor's residence, including two rank-8s. That's not within our expectations ..."

"I have no choice, I have to go...How about ... You go, I'll help you keep an eye on him?"

Li Hansong was speechless. 'It'll be troublesome if I go too, okay?'

However, according to Fang Ping's previous plan, he would enter the residence of the castellan and look for an opportunity to find a replacement.

If he did not cause any trouble, it would be peaceful. Once again, Fang ping could not find a replacement, so he killed a few more. He could not just die for no reason.

A rank-9 powerhouse's mentality swept across the city Lord's residence. It was clear whether there were more people or fewer people.

If that happened, there would be a problem with Fang Ping's plan.

"Kill!"

Li Hansong did not think much about it. With a loud shout ... He hugged a rank-7 martial artist!

With this hug, Lu fengrou and the rest did not care about the others at all. One after another, they attacked li Hansong, unleas.h.i.+ng their ultimate skills!

BOOM!

There was a loud noise. Golden light flickered on li Hansong's divine armor. The rank-7 who was being hugged had already been beaten into a pulp.

Qin Fengqing saw this and shouted,"go and Rob the city Lord's mansion!" There are sunflower seeds in the city Lord's mansion!"

"Let's go!"

"You dare!"

Everyone in monster Sunflower City shouted. These people were so bold that they actually wanted to kill their way into the city!

In the air.

While Castellan Yao kui and Yao kui were suppressing li Changsheng, old man Li shouted,""Hand over 1000 sunflower seeds and I'll leave now. Otherwise, I'll kill you all!"

"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!"

City Lord Yao kui and Yao kui were both furious!

So that was how it was!

So that was how it was!

The longevity sword and the others had attacked the city for the sunflower fruit.

City Lord monster sunflower was about to explode from anger!

The sunflower fruit was ineffective for rank-9s and almost ineffective for rank-8s, but it was quite effective for middle-ranks and rank-7s.

He didn't expect the longevity sword to come for this, and he even asked for 1000 sunflowers. Did he really think there were a lot of sunflowers?

Old man Li did not care about that. He shouted,"Hand it over or not! If you don't hand it over, I'll attack the city every day! Elder kou, elder Liu, go to the city Lord's mansion and get the sunflower seeds!

There must be some in the city Lord's mansion!"

"You guys in the Forbidden Zone, if you dare to attack, I'll kill you!" He shouted. Why don't we just have monster Sunflower City hand over the sunflower seeds and we'll immediately retreat!"

"You're looking for death!"

"You!" City Lord Yao kui and Yao kui were enraged. They attacked li Changsheng one after another, and the void energy exploded again and again.

Even though old man Li was constantly sent flying backward, he managed to hold on.

It was just like how they had besieged the sky Gate tree the other day. At their level, one could defeat and suppress one's opponent, but it was extremely difficult to kill one's opponent.

In the main hall of the city Lord's mansion.

Li an cursed in a low voice and couldn't help but say,""Why don't we give them some sunflower fruits and get them to scram?"

"Your Highness, you can 't!"

The guards hurriedly shook their heads. Feng miesheng's expression was also ugly as he said,""No! How can we compromise with the resurrected martial artists!

If this gets out, it'll be a great crime in the Royal Court, and you and I are no exception!"

"But if this goes on," li an said angrily,"what if ... What if monster Sunflower City can't stop the longevity sword and kills its way into the city? what should we do?"

After we leave, who cares how they kill us!

Feng miesheng, do you want to die Here?"

Feng miesheng frowned and said coldly,""It hasn't reached that stage yet!"

"In any case, bengong will not make a move!"

As li an spoke, he looked at the guards around him and said,""You are not allowed to make a move, be careful of these guys deliberately luring you away to plot against this Queen!

If they wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h the sunflower fruits ... Then let them do it!

We're only here as guests, not to help monster Sunflower City Fight against a powerful enemy. Feng miesheng, I'm going to the city Lord's mansion to take shelter somewhere else, are you coming along?"

"Li an!"

Feng miesheng was extremely angry, tras.h.!.+

Was he so afraid of death?

He actually cowered before the battle and wanted to run!

The longevity sword had been blocked, and only a group of rank-7 and rank-8 martial artists had come. Even though monster Sunflower City had lost a commander realm powerhouse, the others were still around.

If they worked together with the rest of them, there was still hope of killing this group of people.

Li an was actually running away!

As li an moved, he said,'there's a saying in the land of rebirth that the son of a rich family can't sit in the hall! What is our status? So what if he killed a few people and perished with them?

If we want to fight, we have to fight against the descendants of the true Kings. Only those people are worth our lives!

But to risk your life for some people from the outer domain, to protect some sunflower fruits, Feng miesheng, if you want, you can do it. I'm leaving!"

Feng miesheng's will to fight instantly diminished by half.

That's right!

What were their ident.i.ties?

The descendant of a true king, the son of a King Lord!

If he wanted to kill, he would kill the descendants of the true monarchs. If he wanted to kill, he would kill a peerless prodigy martial artist like Fang ping.

If he wanted to kill someone, he would have to kill someone like li Changsheng.

Were the others worth killing?

If something happened in the outer region, it would be a loss that outweighed the gain.

It's not worth it for some sunflower fruits.

At the thought of this, Feng mie Sheng snorted and said no more. He retreated with li an and the others. They had to avoid the city Lord's mansion first.

These people quickly left. In the air, city Lord monster sunflower, who was still fighting, instantly sensed them and was so angry that he almost vomited blood!

b.a.s.t.a.r.d!

d.a.m.n it!

Two supremacies and five commanders, this was comparable to the strength of the people from the land of rebirth!

Together with the two Supreme experts and many commanders in the city, even if they couldn't kill this group of people, they could at least keep them out of the city.

But these people actually ran away!

'd.a.m.n it!'

The people in the Forbidden Zone were all b.a.s.t.a.r.ds. They all deserved to die. They gave them orders on a daily basis and did not care about the casualties in the outer zone at all.

When it came to a time where they had to risk their lives, these guys were actually so afraid of death.

But this time, both Feng miesheng and Li an were extremely important ...

If something really happened here, he wouldn't be able to explain himself.

City Lord monster sunflower was furious, but he couldn't say anything since the other party had left. As he fought, he shouted,""The city doesn't have any sunflower fruits! Longevity sword, you dare to attack the people in the city. From now on, I will not care about any rules and will kill the Warriors of the land of rebirth day and night!"

Old man Li laughed out loud."We won't be like you. Elder Liu, just Rob the city Lord's residence. Don't kill those small fry. Kill those in the way!"

As soon as he said that, Qin Fengqing and the others, who were still fighting in the city, shouted,""Get lost, weaklings! We will only attack the city Lord's mansion!"

"You ..." City Lord monster sunflower was furious. He suddenly stopped talking and materialized something from within his body before entering his own.

In the next instant, city Lord monster sunflower unleashed a powerful attack!

On the other hand, Yao kui tacitly prepared to retreat and return to the city to kill these people.

Old man Li had antic.i.p.ated this. His long sword broke through the air and blocked its path. He shouted,"One minute! One minute later, retreat!"

These words were not only for Qin Fengqing and the rest, but also for Fang ping in the city.

He would have to leave in a minute at most.

If he did not leave now, he might not be in any trouble. However, he would not be able to hold off two rank-9s if he used up too much of his energy. Once one of them managed to escape, Qin Fengqing and the rest would be in danger.

"Quick, quickly attack the city Lord's mansion and grab the sunflower seeds!"

Everyone shouted, but kui Luo and the others didn't seem to be following their hearts, and they also retreated as they fought.

He had thought that these people had come to kill and fight.

Then of course they would fight to the end!

However, these people had actually come for the sunflower fruits. There were some left in the city Lord's mansion, but very few ...

These people were about to retreat, but at this time, they had to fight. What if they died?

It would be better to wait for the king and the Lord Protector to defeat the longevity sword before making any plans.

Hence, two rank-8s and five rank-7s forced these people into the city to fight.

The residents and the guards in the city also evacuated in a hurry.

The battle between these high-ranked powerhouses was not something they could stop.

In the city Lord's mansion.

Fang ping caught a guard and grabbed a general of the Imperial Guards, interrogated him about some things, and quickly destroyed the corpse.

He had heard old man Li's shouts.

When he saw Qin Fengqing and the others charging toward him, Fang Ping's eyes flickered. He did not stay at the castellan's residence but quickly ran in the direction where Feng miesheng and the others had retreated.

As soon as those guys ran away, he sensed it.

As he chased in that direction, Fang ping shouted,"Monster sunflower Army, follow this general out of the palace and protect your Highnesses!"

With that, close to a hundred Guards Army cultivators quickly gathered behind him.

Fang ping did not waste any time. He rose into the air and instantly led his men out of the castellan's residence to protect Feng miesheng and the others.

"Although these guys are all high-ranked, at this time ... A little flattery might have some effect.

Feng miesheng and the others did not run far. Very soon, Fang ping saw their figures and shouted from a distance,""Your Highness, I'm too late!"

"Monster sunflower Army, protect His Highness!"

Fang ping ordered loudly. In front of him, Feng miesheng and Li an were frowning.

Do we need your protection?

Moreover, these guys made such a big fuss. Weren't they telling others that they had run away?

For a moment, Feng miesheng's gaze at Fang ping was extremely unfriendly.

Fang ping did not care about this. He landed in front of Feng miesheng and the other man in an instant, holding a long saber with his back facing them. He looked at the battlefield in the distance with a vigilant look and said in a m.u.f.fled voice,""Don't worry, your Majesties. Even though I'm not a match for a high-ranked powerhouse, I'm willing to fight to the end for you, your Majesties!"

Feng miesheng frowned slightly but didn't say anything.

In his heart, he snorted coldly.

If they really came, he didn't believe that these people would be able to fight to the end.

However, these people would leave soon. Feng miesheng and the others didn't leave either. They stood outside the city Lord's mansion and watched the battle in the sky.

"Castellan Yao kui and Yao kui are about to completely suppress li Changsheng. If li Changsheng and the others don't leave now, I'm afraid it won't just be a problem of rank-7 and 8 being left behind.

At this moment, in midair, Qin Fengqing's saber slashed downwards, shattering some of the buildings in the city Lord's Manor. He gritted his teeth and roared,""Kill! Kill all these guys and take the sunflower seeds!"

Li Hansong also threw a punch downwards. Some of the people from the city Lord's mansion who did not run away were instantly killed.

However, in the distance, li Changsheng was already shouting,""Quickly retreat! There's an expert coming to help!"

"Stop them!"

City Lord monster sunflower also let out a loud roar. A few hundred miles away, a rank-9 powerhouse from another city had come to his aid!

"Retreat!"

Kou Bianjiang shouted loudly, retreating as he fought. Qin Fengqing was still reluctant to part, and he said unwillingly,""I still haven't gotten the sunflower seeds ..."

"Let's go! There's still a chance next time!"

Li Hansong did not know if this was enough, but at this point, if they did not retreat, it would be too late.

As for whether Fang ping would be able to pa.s.s, that would depend on his luck.

At this moment, he did not know where Fang ping was.

At that moment, a rank-6 martial artist rose into the air from behind the castellan's residence and roared,""Don't hurt my father!"

"Tomorrow! Back down!"

Kui Luo roared angrily. Had his son gone crazy?

At this moment, he was being suppressed by Liu polu. The other party was holding a rank-9 magic weapon and had injured his golden body.

But if the other party was retreating, he would be fine.

His son, a warlord level fighter, had suddenly appeared. Was he looking for death?

"Father!"

Fang ping did not care, however. With the long saber in hand, energy appeared on the long saber, and he slashed at Liu polu!

A loud explosion rang out!

In the void, a long whip-like saber radiance was slashed out.

Liu polu furrowed his brows slightly. He ignored the gleam of the blade and struck out at Fang ping casually, intending to kill this rank-6 martial artist.

"Don't you dare!"

Kuiluo was also furious, and he attacked Liu polu in a frenzy.

Just then, Fang Ping's saber's gleam closed in and exploded on Liu polu's body with a bang. An extremely fine wound appeared on Liu polu's left arm.

Fang ping, on the other hand, dodged his casual attack in a hurry. Seeing that he could not avoid it, Fang ping roared and slashed more than ten times in succession ...

With a bang, Fang ping flew backward and landed on the ground right in front of Feng miesheng and the others. His mouth was full of blood, and his face was pale.

Feng miesheng and Li an looked at each other, and their eyes lit up!

This guy ... This guy, with the strength of a middle-stage battle general, had actually injured a rank-8!

Even though it was only a superficial wound that could not even take a casual strike from the other, the other was only a middle stage battle general!

His combat techniques were also extremely proficient, and his explosive power was extremely strong!

He didn't pay much attention to it before. There was actually such a genius in the outer region?
