Looking at the increasingly familiar scene, Zhou Yuan had a lot of thoughts in his heart.
Back then, he was hunted down by Zhuang Tianyi. In order to prevent his family from being implicated, he deliberately drew a clear line with his family and went on the run from then on.
I never thought that after so many years, he would finally come back again.
But this time, he will use his strength to protect his family.
When passing Qingfeng Mountain, Zhou Yuan took a special look at the high mountains.
Back then, he was guided by Huamei, and it was here that he killed the Iron Poison King and found the opportunity to break through the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Su Ruobing was also filled with emotions. She almost died here back then, but was finally saved by Zhou Yuan.
After passing Qingfeng Mountain, we came to a dense forest in a blink of an eye. The originally peaceful dense forest suddenly experienced strong winds. Waves of storms swept through the dense forest, making leaves and shrubs rustle.
This is not an ordinary storm, but a natural fluctuation caused by the aura of a strong man.
The two of them immediately realized something was wrong, and the wildebeest's speed also slowed down.
Su Ruobing looked around sharply, frowning slightly and said: "I have a bad feeling, we seem to be being targeted."
Zhou Yuan glanced at her and said calmly: "Remove the appearance."
"Could it be Xingyue Tower?" Su Ruobing looked worried because he felt the terror of the aura.
Previously at the port of the Imperial Capital, Xingyue Tower's left envoy Xing Tianqi summoned Zhou Yuan, but Zhou Yuan refused directly. Therefore, both of them knew that every step they took would be watched secretly, and they might even be in danger at any time.
Zhou Yuan nodded slightly and said: "Xingyue Tower's intelligence gathering ability is very strong. They also know me well. They will probably send strong people. If we fight later, you can hide as far away as you want. It's best not to cause trouble for me.
.”
Su Ruobing's face instantly turned pale and she nodded quickly.
Zhou Yuan is right, her strength is not very strong, and there is a huge gap between her and Zhou Yuan. Helping her will only become a burden to Zhou Yuan.
Sure enough, not long after, under the observation of the two people's spiritual consciousness, those auras kept coming closer.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
The next moment, dozens of arrows shot out from the dense forest in all directions at such a fast speed that they made bursts of sound.
Zhou Yuan had quick eyesight and quick hands. He immediately raised his hand to grab Su Ruobing, put his feet down, and quickly jumped into the sky.
at the same time.
Puff puff!
Those arrows instantly penetrated the two wildebeests under their crotches.
The horned horse immediately screamed miserably, and then its body exploded and turned into two masses of blood mist.
This arrow was powerful enough to collapse mountains and crack rocks. After passing through the body of the wildebeest, its strength was only reduced by 30%, and then it shot rapidly in all directions, piercing the trunks of trees.
The two of them landed immediately.
Su Ruobing quickly found a place to hide. With her reaction ability, if it hadn't been for Zhou Yuan, her body would have turned into a sieve. This is the power of the arrows in the hands of the strong.
Wow!
Zhou Yuan turned over his hand and took out his long sword, and immediately slashed out several sword energy in all directions.
The sword slashed into the void, and the sword energy spread rapidly.
Puff puff!
Immediately, all the towering ancient trees within a radius of dozens of feet were cut in half. These trees fell down one by one, revealing their bare stumps.
At the same time, a dozen figures appeared from all directions, stepping on tree stumps and approaching.
These people are tall and have a strong aura. They all wear standard blue robes and dark golden masks on their heads. Their true appearance cannot be seen clearly.
One of the men, who seemed to be the leader, walked out swaggeringly. He glanced at Zhou Yuan, then looked at Su Ruobing, and said coldly: "Our target is him. Anyone who has nothing to do with it, please leave, otherwise you will bear the consequences."
Zhou Yuan squinted his eyes slightly, and sure enough, this looked very Xingyue Tower.
Targeting only his own target, Su Ruobing was an irrelevant person, Xingyue Tower's style had always been like this, and the other party was indeed sent by Xing Tianqi.
"Zhou Yuan..." Su Ruobing looked at Zhou Yuan, her face turned pale.
Zhou Yuan looked at her and said calmly: "Leave here and wait for me outside the woods."
"Then be careful." Su Ruobing hesitated for a moment, then nodded and turned to leave.
The leading man sneered, and the pupils under the mask stared at Zhou Yuan, saying: "It seems that you are very confident in your own strength, but I am afraid that you will not be able to get out of this forest today."
As he spoke, all the people who gathered around released their auras, and a powerful storm formed in the area in an instant.
The leaves rustled, the branches swayed, and the sand and rocks flew.
Zhou Yuan's eyes narrowed. There were thirteen killers around him, and their cultivation levels were all at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment without exception. It must be said that Xingyue Tower was really generous, allowing so many strong men to sacrifice their lives for it.
.
"As expected, Xingyue Tower knows me well and knows that my current cultivation level is already at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, so it sent thirteen assassins of the ninth level of Foundation Establishment over here. They really think highly of me." Zhou Yuan smiled lightly.
The leading man pointed at Zhou Yuan, "I know you. You are the most famous genius in Seven Star Academy in the past two years. If it weren't for Zhao Wuya, the first direct disciple, I'm afraid no one would be your opponent, so in order to ensure
The mission was successfully completed, and it’s only right that I brought so many people with me.”
Zhou Yuan suddenly realized that Xing Tianqi did not underestimate himself.
After a pause, the leading man said again: "Master Zuo still gives you two choices, either come back with us and accept the punishment, or you die here and I take your body back."
"Confidence is a good thing, but I'm afraid you don't have the ability." Zhou Yuan suddenly laughed.
He personally rejected Xing Tianqi at the port of the imperial capital, how could he change his mind just like that.
The leader of the man suddenly felt angry when he heard this, "You are really young and frivolous. I don't know what to say. I will chop him to death."
After giving the order, all the figures around him rushed over.
The strong wind roared, the air waves surged into the sky, and all kinds of weapons, wrapped with boundless spiritual power, arrived in front of Zhou Yuan in the blink of an eye.
A strong man at the ninth level of foundation building is enough to sweep through everything, but Zhou Yuan is not weak either.
Puff puff!
The next moment, streaks of blood flew up, severed limbs and remains were scattered, and then a series of shrill screams were heard.
Zhou Yuan rushed out directly from these figures. The sword energy in his hand was wrapped with boundless blood energy, and the spiritual energy in his body was surging, making his whole body spotless.
What?
The few people who had not yet taken action were suddenly shocked.
The other party actually killed all the killers who surrounded him in the blink of an eye.
We are all warriors of the same realm, and with one enemy against many, it is difficult to win. But when they faced Zhou Yuan, they had no power to fight back. How is this possible?
You know, their Xingyue Tower killers often lick blood from the tip of their swords, and are extremely capable of killing.
But at this moment, he couldn't stop this young man's move.
How strong is Zhou Yuan this time?
The expression on the leading man's mask was also one of fear.
"court death!"
The man shouted loudly and immediately took action in person. His whole body turned into an afterimage and arrived in front of Zhou Yuan in the blink of an eye.
Zhou Yuan was shocked. This man was worthy of being a leader. Although he was also at the ninth level of foundation building, his aura and body and martial arts skills were far superior to those of other killers.
If he had been besieged just now, he would have been able to kill his opponent in an instant.
However, the opponent is still weaker than him after all. He can kill a strong person in the first level of spirit transformation, but the opponent cannot.
At the moment when the leader man rushed over, Zhou Yuan also made a sudden movement and shot out of the air with his sword.
puff!
One arm was thrown into the air.
Zhou Yuan instantly stood on a tree stump and looked at the other party with an indifferent expression.
The man screamed and suddenly retreated, grabbing his arm. The face under the mask was extremely ferocious.
"withdraw!"
Finally, he yelled, turned around and ran away.
After only one battle, he knew that he was no match for Zhou Yuan.
It is also the ninth level of foundation building. Why is the awareness so big?
After receiving the order, the others immediately turned into afterimages and retreated one after another.
"Just leaving like this, you are looking down on me." But how could Zhou Yuan let them leave just like that, he quickly drew his sword.
The next moment, two more people screamed and their bodies were split into two.
Most of the thirteen Xingyue Tower killers died instantly.
The intelligence was wrong, and the remaining killers had no choice but to escape, otherwise they would all be killed in Zhou Yuan's hands.
Phew! Phew!
Two more people were killed by Zhou Yuan with one sword as they fled in terror.
The others dispersed, but their speed was not as fast as Zhou Yuan's. Before they left the dense forest, they were caught up by Zhou Yuan one by one and became the dead souls under the sword.
The leading man fled to the Qingfeng Mountain boundary. He breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had escaped. But when he looked up, he saw Zhou Yuan's figure standing not far in front of him.
He covered his wound and said with horror in his heart: "Please forgive me, I am also following orders."
"If I'm not strong enough, will you choose to give up the mission and spare me?" Zhou Yuan said coldly.
The man suddenly fell silent.
However, he spoke again immediately, with a hint of toughness in his tone, "I am one of the four Dharma Kings of Xingyue Tower, and my status is much higher than that of Zhuang Tianyi, a small branch owner. If you dare to kill me, Xingyue Tower will definitely kill you."
Let you die without a burial place."
"Four Dharma Kings?" Zhou Yuan was stunned.
Having been at Seven Star Academy for many years, he naturally knows something about Xingyue Tower.
Inside the Xingyue Building, in addition to the chief building owner, there are also left and right envoys under his command.
The entire Xingyue Building has clear levels, orderly division of labor, and strict rules.
Under the Dharma King, there are many principal elders, such as Nie Chong, who is one of the principal elders, and under the principal elders are the branch owners scattered in various places.
Seeing Zhou Yuan's silence, the man's face under the mask suddenly showed a hint of pride, thinking that he had scared Zhou Yuan, and immediately said: "I can give you a chance now. If you come back with me, Xingyue Tower will treat you lightly."
, otherwise there is only a dead end."
However, Zhou Yuan sneered, "I can even refuse Xing Tianqi, why should I listen to you?"
"Master Zuo?" The man's pupils were startled.
The next moment, Zhou Yuan dodged directly and stabbed out with a sword. This sword exuded a power that penetrated the sky.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the man tried his best to avoid it, but Zhou Yuan still came closer.
"Wait a minute..." the man yelled hastily, "I also know a secret that can change my life."
Whoosh!
Zhou Yuan's figure immediately stopped, and the tip of his sword was already in front of the man.
"What is your strength?" the man asked.
Zhou Yuan said calmly: "The ninth level of foundation building, but your understanding of me is just superficial... You are still talking nonsense to me when death is imminent?"
"slow!"
The man shouted again: "I found that there is a group of people following you all the way from the imperial capital..."
