Chapter 509 – Let me see how dogs bite people

It was just something Dongfang Taiyan said, An Zheng had no intention to contact Chen Shaobai and the others at all. After getting rid of this opponent who couldn’t even be considered as an interlude in An Zheng’s life, An Zheng continued to move forward. The Peach Blossom Forest was very big, An Zheng guessed that it was not a coincidence that the Tsukiko Queen Gesun decided to send him to this place. It wasn’t long before that person called Dongpo Taiyan arrived. Even a fool might not believe that it was a coincidence.

An Zheng wanted to see what else this Qu Sang Sang Sang had prepared.

As the queen of Tsukiko, this was definitely not her first time entering the Immortal palace ruins, so her understanding of this place was far above An Zheng. An Zheng could not help but surmise that the reason the Eastern Slope Taiyan appeared so quickly was most likely because of Grissan’s arrangements. And what was the purpose of this arrangement?

There were only two answers. The first was to borrow An Zheng’s hand to get rid of Dongpo Taiyan. Secondly, he would use the help of Dongpo Taiyan to get rid of An Zheng.

If it was the former, although Dongpo Taiyan was the new rising star of the Tsukiko, he was still far from the point where the Queen could see him ahreat. Therefore, the best way to get rid of Dongpo Taiyan was to get rid of him. Dongpo Taiyan was so crazy that he wanted to pursue the Da Da Da Ye. Furthermore, the clan behind Dongpo Taiyan was not small, so what about it?

Dongpo Taiyan did not meet the criteria for Gesang Sang to choose his son-in-law, and the clan backing Dongpo Taiyan could not be directly offended, so, he appeared in front of An Zheng not long after An Zheng arrived at the immortal palace. Then, when An Zheng killed Dongpo Taiyan, wasn’t that easier said than done? This was not the Eastern Slope that Grisantha had his men get rid of. Naturally, the clan of the Eastern Slope would not vent their anger on Grisansan because of this.

Of course the target was An Zheng.

Therefore, An Zheng’s two speculations could be combined into one. Grissom was a woman who had been a queen for a long time. Of course she knew how to balance the court. The art of scheming waequired skill for her, and he had mastered it long ago. An Zheng killed Dongpo Taiyan and used the power of the clan backing Dongpo Taiyan to kill An Zheng. It really couldn’t be better.

So where was there any advice or hope? The reason why Da Da Ye was able to let An Zheng escape from Peacock City’s Imperial Palace was entirely due to Grissom’s laissez-faire. Then Grissom appeared, taking a motherly stance. He said that he wanted An Zheng to keep the locket and protect Da Da Ye in the future, all he wanted to do was to temporarily take An Zheng’s trust.

This necklace might become a disaster in the future.

An Zheng was not an idiot. After being in the Great Western Ming Fa Si for so many years, how many schemes and tricks had he come across? How many people had he encountered? He was just too upright and unyielding to be a fool.

Since Gesun Sang had sent An Zheng to this peach garden, it was obvious that he had other arrangements. Qu Sang Sang wasn’t the type of person who could only do one kind of preparation. She must have thought that Dongpo Taiyan might not be able to kill An Zheng, but she definitely thought that An Zheng could kill Dongpo Taiyan. What followed next was the arrival of the person who was waiting to avenge Dongpo Taiyan.

Within the peach garden, there were many paths that seemed to lead in all directions. All of them were stepped on by humans. Although the immortal palace had disappeared for tens of thousands of years, when it reappeared, it still retained a lot of its former glory. The existence of these small paths was sufficient to show that this peach forest was once a bustling place in Inside the Immortal Palace. But this was juseach orchard? Why was there used to be people coming and going?

Following one of the small paths and continued forward, An Zheng took good old man out of the spatial space as well. Since he had been stuck in the spatial space the entire time, it was about time for good old man to come out to take a breather.

good old man squatted on An Zheng’s shoulder and looked around, as if he was curious about the place. It had to be said that the spiritual energy in the Inside the Immortal Palace was extremely dense. Even after tens of thousands of years, the immortal palace was still much stronger than the outside world. An Zheng conjectured that what one could gain from cultivating in the outside world for a month, could be obtained from cultivating in the Inside the Immortal Palace for three to five days, or even in a better place in the Immortal Palace.

This wasn’t some kind of secret realm, but was a common occurrence within a massive immortal palace.

Why did the Da Xi choose to fight the Buddha for it?

Think about it, if it was an empire that was strong to begin with, they would either raise young people whom they needed to nurture in the Inside the Immortal Palace, or place their army there. After a few years, his battle prowess would be greatly increased.

Most importantly, there were countless treasures.

good old man’s nose twitched for a bit, and then he let out a low cry in An Zheng’s ear. An Zheng looked towards the direction where the good old man was looking. He discovered that the good old man was paying attention to those peach trees, and every peach tree seemed to be able to attract the good old man’s attention.

Then, An Zheng suddenly realized... The peach trees here have existed for tens of thousands of years. Wudang Mountain’s Three Purities Monastery had an old peach tree that had survived for three thousand years. It bore fruit after hearing the sound of the voice, causing Feng Xiuyang to go crazy over it. And the peach trees here? It had already been tens of thousands of years. Although they hadn’t deliberately been raised, every peach tree couldn’t be underestimated. Someone once said that living things only lived fohousand years while living things only lived for ten thousand years. This meant that as long as there was something in life that could live for a thousand years, it would naturally produce its own intelligence. Even something like a rock, that could not be extinguished even after tens of thousands of years, would develop its own intelligence.

Think of Qi Tian.

Therefore, every peach tree here was probably very scary.

An Zheng suddenly thought of something. What if all these peach trees were moved away? If they could cultivate it and wait for the peach tree to bear its fruit, everyone would eat it for a fruit. It might have an unexpected effect.

Then, An Zheng could not help but curse at himself once... What are you thinking!

Just do it directly!

In any case, the space within the Blood Pearl Bracelet was very large. Even if they could not move all the peach trees away, at least a few hundred would not broblem.

Therefore, when everyone who entered the immortal palace was either crazily searching for treasures or fighting to the death, An Zheng was pulling the tree trunk. He held the trunk of a peach tree with both hands and exerted strength into his legs. His body rose up and the ground seemed to shake a little. Then, the roots of the peach tree brought up a bulge on the ground. An Zheng held onto the big tree and shook it a few times, unexpectedly having a sense of accomplishment.

One, two, three, four … Other kinds of happiness.

In less than half an hour’s time, An Zheng had cleared out an area within a hundred meters around him. He pulled up those huge intertwined peach trees one by one, and then placed them in the one of the Blood Pearl Bracelehat was specially made for the medicinal field. good old man was squatting on a mound of dirt not far away, shouting loudly as if he was cheering for An Zheng. It surprisingly sat down in a very human-like manner. Its two beautiful front paws slapped against each other, creating a very rhythmic feeling.

An Zheng took ouundred and eight stones in one go. It looked like the surrounding ground had been bombarded by bombs, and each and every one of them was a pit. An Zheng was not tired after pulling out so many, but instead had a carefree feeling that all the muscles and tendons in his body had been pulled apart.

He was preparing to sprint towards the second one hundred vines, but at this moment, a person rushed over from the distance. That person landed on a peach tree. He glanced at An Zheng, then suddenly woke up as if he had realized something. He also began to pull the tree. An Zheng was startled for a moment, and then asked: “What are you doing?”

The cultivator retorted, “What are you doing?”

An Zheng: “I’m pulling the tree out.”

The cultivator said, “I’m also pulling out trees.”

An Zheng: “But why did you pull out the tree the moment you saw me pull out the tree?”

The cultivator said, “But why can’t I pull out the tree just because I saw you pull out the tree?”

An Zheng: “...”

That cultivator spent a lot of effort to pull none of them out, but he did not choose to give up. Instead, he ran to the top and shouted, “Brothers, quickly come over here. Let’s pull up the trees together!”

This voice was quite useful. Not long after, dozens of people arrived. Judging from their clothing, they were from the same sect. The simple and honest point of this group of people was that they didn’t ask why they had to pull out the trees, but instead, they started to attack together. The more people there were, the stronger their strength would be. To think that they would be able to pull one out of the tree. Then, the group of people started to cheer and work even harder. An Zheng saw that they were trying to steal something from me and quickly sped up. The group of people on the other side pulled one tree after another as he pulled himself out one by one.

Right at this moment, a roar of a demonic beast suddenly came from the distance. Following that, a large banner flew over from that direction, and with a ‘dou’ sound, it stabbed into the ground. The banner suddenly unfurled with the words “Hanhai Sect” written on it.

“The rest of you retreat as soon as the Hanhai Sect arrives!”

Dozens of dark blue uniformed men rode demon beasts and rushed over, stopping beside the banner. The person in the lead first pointed at the cultivators who were pulling out the trees. “Put down what you have in your hands and scram immediately.”

The cultivator that had appeared earlier stood up. “On what basis?”

A cultivator from the Hanhai Sect suddenly made his move. His body shot forward like lightning, and before the cultivator could even react, a fist smashed into his lower abdomen. This punch was aimed at killing people, and it was aimed at the vital parts of his body. Everyone knew how important Dantian Qi Sea were to cultivators. A heavy strike on a Dantian Qi Sea, even if one was lucky enough to not die, it was possible that their cultivation would be crippled as well.

The punch directly sent the cultivator flying, causing him to spurt out a large mouthful of blood. Even if he was still alive, it would be difficult for the Dantian Qi Sea to cultivate after it had been severely injured.

An Zheng frowned slightly, holding onto the big tree that he had just pulled down and looked at the people from the Hanhai Sect.

“Scram!”

The cultivator from the Hanhai Sect looked at the cultivator from the other sect and said loudly, “I am Tie Shengxing from the Hanhai Sect. If you guys are unwilling, you can come and find me at any time. No one is allowed to snatch the item that the Hanhai Sect has asked for. No one is allowed to get close to the territory the Hanhai Sect has claimed. I say again, get out of my way. If you force me to attack again, it will not be as simple as crippling your cultivation. ”

“You guys are bullies!”

Someone shouted, “What a useless person!”

Killing intent flashed in Tie Shengxing’s eyes. He sneered and said, “I’m just bullying you, what’s wrong? If you want to bully someone, then you must have the strength to bully others. If you want to be bullied, then you must have the awareness to be bullied. What did you just say? Relying on power? ”

He moved his body and suddenly appeared in front of that cultivator, then he grabbed him by the neck. “Let me tell you what reality is, you’re right, I’m just relying on my own power. The Hanhai Sect belongs to His Highness the Prince. What we want is what His Highness wants. The people we want to kill are the people His Highness wants to kill. So even if I kill you now, do you think that someone will avenge you, or speak up for you? ”

The man’s face was red from trying to speak, but he was unable to do so.

With a “pa” sound, Tie Shengxing felt his vision go black, and then he felt someone grab him by the throat.

An Zheng grabbed Tie Shengxing’s neck, and slowly raised him up. “Let go of him.”

Tie Shengxing did not even see An Zheng move, but he did not dare resist either. He immediately let go of the cultivator.

An Zheng looked into Tie Shengxing’s eyes and said: “I won’t talk as much as you do.” With a kacha sound, Tie Shengxing’s neck was broken by An Zheng. An Zheng swung his hand and threw the corpse to the side, and then turned to look at the person from the Hanhai Sect and hooked his finger: “Come, let me see how a dog bites people.”
