Chapter 100 Tie Jian's Journey from Sorrow to Joy

Surrounded by the shadows of axes, Zheng Qian's eyes were solemn; this was the strongest opponent he had ever faced.

The giant axe seemed to be everywhere, and if he made the slightest mistake, he would be cleaved in two.

"The general has made his move; kill them all."

"The Guardian Army is invincible, kill them."

As soon as Tie Jian made his move, the morale of the guards soared, and the experts from the merchant guild behind them were forced to retreat repeatedly.

The guards' armor could withstand their attacks, but the guards' attacks could either kill or maim them.

In order to protect the remaining forces, Zheng Qian shouted to the people behind him: "You go and support the southeast districts, leave this to me."

"He is the honorary president. Teams 1, 3, and 5 will support the East District, and teams 2, 4, and 6 will support the South District."

"Captain, we've sent reinforcements to two districts, what about the guild leader?"

"The guild leader, Qingtaipo, has killed over a thousand people and is the God of Slaughter at the North Gate. He will surely win."

"It's hard to say. Tie Jian is very powerful. He has never lost in his 20-year career."

"You bastard, you have no idea how powerful the chairman is. If you keep talking nonsense, I'll castrate you."

Upon hearing Zheng Qian's words, the Chamber of Commerce experts retreated while fighting, their six teams splitting into two groups and rushing towards the East City and the South City.

After giving the order to his men, Zheng Qian's blood surged, and his heavy sword, Guardian of the Heart, swirled around his body, attacking from every angle. Instead of retreating, he advanced, fighting to the death.

"Explosive Slash".

The sword energy instantly shattered the axe shadow and collided heavily with the giant axe. The shockwave directly blew the guards backward.

Tie Jian was sent flying by a sword strike, crashing into the wall with a thud before falling heavily to the ground, his hands gripping the giant axe as he knelt on one knee.

His strength is over 9,000 jin, and when he uses the Rock Iron Divine Skill, his strength can instantly burst to 13,000 jin. Otherwise, he would not have been able to become the highest commander of the Rock City Guard.

Unexpectedly, he was still slashed away by Zheng Qian's sword.

Zheng Qian has a strength of 13,000 jin, and when his blood boils, it can reach at least 18,000 jin. Apart from the experts in the Fusion Realm mentioned by Aunt Lan, he fears no one in Wuyan City.

"Pathetic." Zheng Qian only felt a slight numbness in his hands, glanced at Tie Jian with disdain, and charged towards the guards.

His goal was to save He Zuowen.

"Haha, that's awesome, let's fight again." Tie Jian laughed loudly. He was a strength-type warrior, and meeting Zheng Qian, who was also a strength-type warrior, ignited his fighting spirit.

He was just one step away from reaching the Spirit Fusion Realm, but his strength was stuck at 9,800 jin, and he couldn't increase it by 200 jin no matter how hard he trained. Unexpectedly, Zheng Qian's strength was several thousand jin stronger than his.

I must capture Zheng Qian and ask him about his methods for training strength. This way, once I reach the 10,000-jin level, I can immediately break through to the Fusion Spirit Realm and become a true top expert in Wuyan Kingdom.

Thinking of this, Tie Jian roared, "Brothers, capture him alive! Whoever catches him will get a woman, an official position, or money if they want one!"

"Go! Seize him! I want to be the centurion!"

"Useless. There's a deputy commander position available. You should take the deputy commander position."

"Bah, I want money and women, kill me."

The guards erupted in cheers, while He Zuowen was dragged away by them and ran further and further away from Zheng Qian.

"Those who block my way shall die."

Zheng Qian was furious. He had never been so anxious before. Aunt Lan and Aunt Hong had taken Jiang Siting to the mountains to cultivate, and now he could only rely on himself. He didn't know the situation in the East District and the South District. He had to rescue He Zuowen as soon as possible and then support the two districts.

Using the "Starry Sky Illusion Step" technique, Zheng Qian stepped on the triangular star positions, running and killing as he went. His heavy sword, Guardian of the Heart, became the blades of a meat grinder, relentlessly reaping the lives of the guards.

The guards' black armor could withstand attacks from the Chamber of Commerce's experts, but it was useless against Zheng Qian's heavy sword. Each of Zheng Qian's sword strikes was delivered with full force, weighing 13,000 jin, and no one could block a single blow.

Just then, He Zuowen was led by the soldiers to the corner at the end of the street, out of Zheng Qian's sight.

The physically weak He Zuowen was severely injured, and his resistance seemed so feeble and powerless in front of the two soldiers.

"Zheng Qian, take this!" Tie Jian chased after him, wielding a giant axe, his eyes filled with madness.

"Brothers, hold the line! If we capture Zheng Qian, it will be a great achievement for our Second Battalion. We'll all share the money and the beauties."

"The commander is here. Hold the line. Zheng Qian is doomed."

"Kill him! He's all alone, what's there to be afraid of?"

The guards became even more frenzied. Yan City was their territory, and who were they afraid of?

Zheng Qian gripped his heavy sword tightly, guarding his heart. He hadn't intended to go on a killing spree, but to save He Zuowen, he disregarded everything else.

At worst, we can fight our way out of the city, find Aunt Lan, and then come back.

Thinking of this, Zheng Qian's killing intent burst forth as if it were a tangible force.

"Since you want to die, I will grant your wish."

His eyes slowly turned bloodshot. Zheng Qian didn't even look at Tie Jian behind him. He moved even faster, and his voice was as cold and ruthless as if it came from hell.

"The first strike of the Three-Stage Slash: Phantom Sky Rift."

The greatsword left a trail of afterimages as it instantly ripped through the sky, tearing the air apart wherever it passed. Enemies within five meters were swept away by the sword's force like a giant wave, leaving no trace of their bodies, and the street was cleared into a vacuum.

The guards were devastated by the massacre. Only a small number of them had ever participated in a war; most were paid but had never fought and had never witnessed such a horrific scene.

Tie Jian stood frozen in place, holding his giant axe, unable to understand why Zheng Qian possessed such destructive power.

Are the rumors all true?

Zheng Qianzhen killed an entire battalion by himself, and he didn't poison Qin Luyang at Qingtaipo either.

Jia Shi boasted that Zheng Qian had poisoned Qin Luyang, and all the high-ranking officials believed him.

Unfortunately, Tie Jian found out too late.

He was heartbroken and grieved to see his brother die tragically, but Zheng Qian gave him no time to grieve, and the second sword was already unleashed.

"Second slash, Wind Blade Soul Severing."

Zheng Qian's power increased even more, and his aura became even more fierce. The moment he swung his heavy sword, it was as if an invisible wind blade extended forward along with the sword light.

Enemies within ten meters were utterly powerless against this force, and were all cut in two, with none surviving.

Tie Jian opened his mouth wide, trying to roar, but no sound came out.

Among those killed by Zheng Qian's sword were the second battalion commander and several lieutenants. They couldn't even withstand Zheng Qian's sword strike, and these people all had powerful backgrounds in Yan City.

That's it. If he's impeached, he'll lose his position as commander and may even be killed by various powerful forces.

Just as Tie Jian was still considering his official position, Zheng Qian unleashed an even more terrifying sword strike.

"The third strike, the boundless天地无极 (Heaven and Earth Without Limits)."

Fifteen meters away, Zheng Qian's aura reached its peak. The moment he swung his heavy sword, a dazzling sword light erupted, seemingly tearing the heavens and earth apart. Under this boundless sword aura, all enemies within fifteen meters were instantly killed, none able to escape, leaving the ground littered with severed limbs.

"Cool."

"Do not."

Zheng Qian and Tie Jian roared almost simultaneously. The mysterious liquid in Zheng Qian's mind gushed out like a stream, and he trembled with pleasure.

The guards had the streets completely packed with soldiers, and the thousand-strong force had only managed to stand for about twenty meters, all of them from the Second Battalion. Zheng Qian had already wiped out the Second Battalion, and the vanguard of the Third Battalion had also been killed by his sword.

At this moment, Zheng Qian also reached the end of the street. He killed the soldiers who were capturing He Zuowen with two swords. The remaining soldiers dared not go forward and all retreated in fear. Zheng Qian carried He Zuowen on his back, took two steps to jump onto the roof, and disappeared at the end of the street with a few leaps.

"It's over, it's all over."

Tie Jian was completely bewildered. The front row of the three battalions consisted of the sons of high-ranking officials, and one of them was the eldest prince's brother-in-law.

They were there to enhance their military skills, as they were about to be promoted to officials, but unexpectedly, Zheng Qian killed them all with a single sword strike.

“It was all Zheng Qian’s doing. It was all Zheng Qian who killed you. If I avenge you, the forces behind you won’t bother me anymore.”

Tie Jian muttered to himself, his eyes growing more confident with each word. His background was equally impressive. He believed that once he killed Zheng Qian and broke through to the Spirit Fusion Realm, all his problems would be solved.

Once he grasped the key, Tie Jian's blood and qi surged upwards, forming a rapidly spinning vortex around his body. The vortex grew faster and faster, and the blood and qi in his body rushed in his dantian, eventually converging and being compressed into liquid.

In despair, Tie Jian somehow managed to gather spiritual energy within his body and break through to the Spirit Fusion Realm, instantly becoming one of the top experts in Yan City.

"Haha, heaven hasn't forsaken me!" Tie Jian went from being dejected to being in high spirits, and he couldn't help but roar.

"Zheng Qian, you're dead."
