Chapter 1881: Qianwang Young Master
Taking a deep breath, Murong Jianyun replied quietly, "Fenglei Emperor, you overestimate me. I’m here because there’s an urgent matter. The presence of the Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall in Willow Leaf City is menacing, and I need to eliminate them now."
At this moment, Murong Jianyun could only directly state his purpose, observing the opponent’s reaction to decide whether to fight.
Upon hearing this, Feng Leibao still smiled and said, "But our Tower Master insists you go to Qianwang Holy Tower now."
Immediately, a chill swept across Murong Jianyun’s body.
Obviously, no matter how nicely Feng Leibao spoke, he wouldn’t let Murong reach Willow Leaf City.
So, should he rush through or not?
Murong Jianyun’s fists clenched tightly; if he didn’t charge forward, winning at Willow Leaf City would be nearly impossible.
Finally, after weighing his options, Murong Jianyun steeled his heart: "Fenglei Emperor, I cannot go to the Qianwang Holy Tower now. I must head towards Willow Leaf City, so I apologize..."
With that, he made a swift move, aiming to bypass Feng Leibao and head towards Willow Leaf City.
But... clang!
In an instant, a lightning-like sword light blocked Murong Jianyun’s path...
Feng Leibao then turned slightly, coldly smiling, "I hear the Murong Datian Decision has reached the Holy Martial Stage."
"Just right, my demon beast mount and I have both made significant breakthroughs recently. We need to learn from a true Holy Martial Stage master. How about a spar?"
Upon hearing this, Murong Jianyun’s eyes gleamed with cold light again.
Feng Leibao was determined not to let him pass, and his terrifying combat strength, rumored to have challenged the Holy Martial Stage at the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land without defeat, was why he became the First Emperor of the Qianwang Holy Tower...
Feng Leibao had once declared he longed to battle Su Old Demon, mainly because Su Old Demon could defeat the Holy Martial Stage with top-level Emperor strength.
This demonstrated how confident he was in his combat ability.
Murong Jianyun took another deep breath and spoke heavily, "Then let’s spar!"
He had to go through...
He had to step over Feng Leibao, so Murong Jianyun’s originally aged face gradually became youthful at this moment.
At this moment, Murong Jianyun’s connection with the Holy Martial Stage finally exposed itself entirely across the Central Plains.
On the opposite side, Feng Leibao’s eyes flashed with intense bloodlust; he lightly licked his lips and said, "Kill..."
Boom boom boom...
An earth-shaking battle erupted, filling the entire forest with the aura of the Holy Martial Stage and top-level Emperor, along with the terrifying aura of the top-level Emperor demon beast, causing large swathes of Willow Leaf Forest to collapse.
Finally, after a full two hours, it subsided.
"Offense to Fenglei Emperor, farewell!"
A hoarse voice faintly echoed from Murong Jianyun’s lips; afterward, he whipped up a fierce wind and continued to rush towards Willow Leaf City.
Of course, he had won, but just after he departed... wow!
A mouthful of fresh blood was harshly spat from Murong Jianyun’s mouth, his face turning pale.
Hoarse, he said, "The Qianwang Holy Tower is too terrifying. Feng Leibao’s combat strength is exceptionally strong. If I hadn’t advanced recently, I’d likely have ended up like that Holy Martial Stage at the Heavenly Dao Sacred Land, unable to get past him."
Of course, the main reason was Feng Leibao’s demon beast mount teaming up with him, otherwise, Murong Jianyun wouldn’t have had any difficulty winning.
And this time heading to Willow Leaf City, Murong Jianyun hadn’t brought along his mount, the Dark Winged Dragon Eagle...
Because his Dark Winged Dragon Eagle had also reached the Holy Martial Stage with Sikong Jing’s help; it needed to guard Overlord City.
No one knew if the Qianwang Holy Tower might attack Overlord City should the Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall’s plan fail.
Gritting his teeth tightly, Murong Jianyun spoke hoarsely again: "I’m afraid this injury won’t heal anytime soon. Next, I have to face a true Holy Martial Stage master... Regardless, I must fight."
With that, Murong Jianyun accelerated again...
...
At the edge of Willow Leaf Forest, amidst the large swathes of fallen trees...
Feng Leibao and his Thunderstorm Roar Beast, both bloodied, leaned his pale face against a fallen tree trunk and suddenly spoke lightly: "Young Master, unfortunately, I couldn’t stop Murong Jianyun."
Obviously, there’s a second person present.
Indeed, as these words fell, a silhouette suddenly emerged slowly from the Thunderstorm Roar Beast’s ear.
It was a boy of twelve or thirteen...
His face was white as jade, still bearing traces of youth, yet exuding a terribly eerie feeling as the boy gently laughed and replied, "Indeed, it’s a shame. It seems my brother Yu Sheng will also be disliked by our father."
Called Young Master by Feng Leibao, naturally he was Pei Kuang’s son...
The boy was Pei Kuang’s youngest son, named Pei Yusheng.
After his birth, Pei Kuang decided not to have more children, and although Pei Yusheng was still very young and far from being noticed by Pei Kuang, he secretly followed Feng Leibao here.
Though saying it’s a pity, Pei Yusheng’s eyes held no trace of regret.
At this moment, Pei Yusheng’s youthful voice rang out again: "Now you must quickly send a message to my father, saying that the Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall plan temporarily failed, and the second rescue plan must be promptly executed."
Hearing these words, Feng Leibao nodded lightly...
He was sent by Pei Kuang to secretly monitor the Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall’s actions, even Pei Yupo and Pei Chang not knowing of his existence.
And of course, he couldn’t openly assist the Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall, given his distinct characteristics and notorious reputation.
But Pei Kuang required him to covertly handle various emergencies when needed.
Just like earlier, he had to block Murong Jianyun.
However, if the plan failed or the Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall’s plan got exposed, the second rescue plan had to be executed.
While implementing this rescue, he could act independently.
But this matter, of course, must be reported to Pei Kuang in advance.
But just as he was sending the message, Feng Leibao spoke again, "Murong Jianyun seems to be seriously injured, perhaps..."
Evidently, he hesitated whether to rescue or wait and see...
Yet before he finished, young Pei Yusheng interrupted, "There’s no perhaps. My brother Yu Sheng’s identity has been exposed, even if he wins this battle badly, so what? The Qianyuan Holy Demon Hall plan must still be modified and adjusted."
He understood Feng Leibao’s intent: though injured, Murong Jianyun might not overcome his uncle Pei Chang.
But winning meant a bitter victory, and he couldn’t slaughter everyone in the Willow Leaf City area for silence, hence the need for a rescue. Just as long as they couldn’t wipe out the entire Willow Leaf City region, the plan must change...
Hearing this, after some contemplation, Feng Leibao finally nodded slightly and sent the message.
Seeing the message bird fly away, Pei Yusheng laughed again...
"Let’s go see if my brother Yu Sheng, undefeated below Emperor Martial, can survive..."
"But my father is partial to him, gifting him a life-saving item, he’ll surely survive. It’s truly unfortunate."
Once more, he spoke words of regret in a youthful tone.
Yet quickly laughed again...
He knew after this battle, Pei Yupo wouldn’t remain favored, with father Pei Kuang bound to be furious.
