Chapter 449
449 Tianyun City
In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning. It was rare for Wang Lan to be on time. He arrived at Li Yuanqing’s cave abode early. He brought Li Yuanqing and drove a small boat north, fearlessly passing through many people’s territories.
Even though they were fast enough, Li Yuanqing could still feel waves of divine sense surging out from behind him and sweeping towards them in dissatisfaction.
Wang Lan was too arrogant, he did not take others seriously at all.
If an ordinary person passed by other people’s territory, they would more or less take a detour. However, he did not, he just walked straight north like this. Along the way, he provoked many people.
However, he did have enough strength to back him up. When the others saw that it was this old fellow, they instantly lost his appetite and cursed before letting them be.
Li Yuanqing was also worried for Wang Lan. This old man always did things like this. No wonder he didn’t have any friends around him.
His sworn enemy, Huo Feng, seemed to have many old friends. Even those demons had a good relationship with Huo Feng.
Only Wang Lan’s temper was so bad that it was unbearable to look at. He did not seem to have any particularly good friends.
The curses from the people below did not change Wang Lan at all.
Instead, he became even more unreasonable. Even when he passed by the borders of many large sects, he had no intention of slowing down or taking a detour.
But this guy did have some reputation.
The two of them traveled north for thousands of miles before finally stopping in front of a magnificent city.
In fact, based on the situation in the Immortal World, the human race faced very little danger. In the Immortal World, the human race was too prosperous and completely suppressed the demons.
If it was just because of the danger of the demons, it would not be necessary to form a large city to stabilize the situation.
However, in the Immortal World, some very unusual disasters would erupt every few years.
According to the people here, it was the cycle of five elements, the luck of heaven and earth.
Therefore, other than large sects, there were also many itinerant cultivators coming and going in this very prosperous city in the Immortal World.
They were exchanging goods here, exchanging information with each other, and relying on this powerful defense to avoid danger.
In human cities, large-scale violence was generally prohibited. If they encountered any trouble, as long as they could hide in the city, they would be half as safe.
The city in front of Li Yuanqing was called Tianyun City.
Tianyun City was the central city within thousands of kilometers. The sects of all sizes had a very close relationship with Tianyun City.
Although Wang Lan usually liked to wander around those small black markets, if he needed a large amount of materials, he would have to purchase them in Tianyun City.
The walls of Tianyun City were extremely tall, like an incomparably vast barrier that stood on the horizon.
After the two of them arrived, they flew much lower. Li Yuanqing looked up and saw that the towering city wall was as steep as a natural cliff.
Standing under the city wall, he felt so small. That weak figure was nothing in front of the city wall.
There were countless guards on the city wall, flying back and forth.
The guards had grown wings on their bodies. They flapped their pure white wings and flew up and down the perimeter of the wall, as if checking on its health.
At the top of the wall, every thousand feet, a towering tower had been set up. Above the solid wall, it looked like towering needles piercing the sky.
It was Li Yuanqing’s first time here, so he was even more curious about everything that was happening.
The only thing he had come into contact with in the Immortal World were the human sects or the scattered rogue cultivators.
This was the first time he had come into contact with a human city in the Immortal World. Compared to the cities in the lower realm, the human cities here were so majestic.
The cost of building this city wall alone would probably never be comparable to the entire Ping Cheng below.
There was no need to talk about its defense. If it had such a defense, Li Yuanqing probably wouldn’t have had to constantly strengthen it because of the demons.
Li Yuanqing looked at the dim city and felt depressed.
On the other side, Wang Lan had already landed the small boat at the entrance of Tianyun City.
When Wang Lan was outside, he was very arrogant. However, he became obedient after arriving here. He followed the others and lined up obediently with Li Yuanqing in the middle of a group of strange-looking foreigners.
In front of Li Yuanqing was a swordsman in a white robe.
The man carried a sword on his hip. His left hand rested lightly on it, his right hand behind his back. His hands were delicate and fierce.
Behind them was a big guy, thirty feet tall. He was very bulky, and his big face looked very honest. There was a very thick mist coming out of his big nostrils, which kept floating above Li Yuanqing’s head. He looked very uncomfortable.
Li Yuanqing glanced at the huge fellow. He was actually a black bear with black fur. His big eyes happened to be lowered and staring at Li Yuanqing. His eyes were the size of Li Yuanqing’s entire body.
At this moment, the line in front gradually approached the city gate, but something seemed to have happened.
Li Yuanqing was feeling uncomfortable when there was a commotion in front of him. He saw three burly demons standing beside the white-robed swordsman in front of them. These three demons were strong, tall, and looked very fierce. The three burly men surrounded the man in the middle, making him invisible from the outside.
“Hahaha! Chou Wu, let’s see where you can run to today!”
The three huge demons each held a weapon in their hands. One held a huge heavy sword, one carried a huge hammer, and the other wore heavy boxing gloves on both hands. They were waiting eagerly, as if they were about to attack at any moment.
The swordsman was surrounded in the middle, but he still stood there calmly. He only replied coldly, “Don’t cause trouble.”
His cold attitude angered the scaled demon with the heavy sword. Two clouds of mist spewed out of his thick nostrils and spread towards Chou Wu.
“Chou Wu, you’re about to die, yet you still dare to be so arrogant! You escaped last time in the city. Now, we are outside the city. The city rules won’t take effect here. Let’s see what reason you have to escape this time!”
The three brothers sized up the swordsman in front of them smugly and even arranged the tasks that would be assigned later.
“Brother Long, you don’t have to do anything later. With this hammer of mine, this guy will turn into a pile of meat paste. At that time, I’ll crush this kid’s corpse into meatballs for you. I’ll put them into the oil pot one by one and fry them for you to eat!”
The demon holding the heavy hammer hummed as he spoke. He was short and fat, like a big ball. He was very compatible with his round hammer.
The demon called Brother Long placed his hand on his brother’s shoulder and patted him gently.
“Old Zhu, watch from the side later. I must personally deal with this kid and avenge our brothers. Otherwise, our Tianlong Gang will really be looked down upon by them. He really thinks we’re easy to bully!”
The people queuing at the city gate were still entering, and there were already two empty spots. Seeing this, the swordsman wanted to walk out of their encirclement and continue queuing.
However, the three brothers had finally caught him. How could they let him go so easily?
They continued to chase after him and surrounded the swordsman again. He even stared at him unhappily and said, “Good fellow! We brothers are talking to you. Did you not hear us or what? If you can kneel down obediently and kowtow to me ten times, I can still leave your corpse intact!”
Although the Immortal World prohibited large-scale fights, there was an unwritten rule.
If they hated each other and killed each other, they would investigate the reason. If the reason was within the acceptable range, this kind of killing could be shown leniency.
However, most of the time, both parties would argue with each other.
In particular, it was impossible to explain the entanglement between the two parties. Others could not be bothered with it either. It would not be too late to make a decision after they killed the other party.
Seeing that the three brothers were charging at him again, the swordsman’s expression finally changed. He picked up the sword at his waist and hugged it in his arms. He straightened his chest and said to them warningly, “If you know what’s good for you, get lost. I’m not in the mood to fight today.”
“You’re not in the mood to fight? Then be a good boy and die!”
Brother Long gritted his teeth and swung his heavy sword at the swordsman’s head. His sword was very heavy and made of special materials. It was extremely strong. This sword was only raised high, but it gave off a very strong sense of oppression before it even slashed down.
Even those at the side were more or less affected. The people around them could not help but retreat a little.
Wang Lan frowned and shook his shoulders unhappily. A majestic force was released from his body, forming a shield in front of the two of them to protect them from being affected.
“Go to hell!”
The flood dragon shouted, and his aura suddenly increased. His originally ten-foot-tall body expanded again at this moment, doubling to more than twenty feet. His figure was almost comparable to the big black bear behind Li Yuanqing.
This flood dragon’s waist became longer and longer. His two arms inexplicably grew out, and a large number of scales appeared. His human-shaped palms also turned into dragon claws.
In the blink of an eye, the heavy sword had already arrived less than a foot above the swordsman’s head.
Although this heavy sword looked cumbersome, it was extremely fast. In an instant, it was about to split this swordsman into two.
Li Yuanqing did not know what grudges were going on between them. He wanted to stop them, but Wang Lan did not do anything about it, so it was probably not appropriate for him to make a move.
“Master!” Li Yuanqing called out softly.
Wang Lan raised a withered palm and blocked Li Yuanqing.
At this moment, a sword light flashed in the crowd.
When Li Yuanqing looked over again, suddenly, hot blood spewed in all directions uncontrollably.
The flood dragon looked at his broken right arm in disbelief. His right arm hand had been neatly cut off at the forearm. The cut was as smooth as a mirror. The vigorous blood in his body was surging at this moment. Such a huge gap appeared, and it immediately spewed out uncontrollably. For a moment, it was scattered everywhere.
The onlookers below used their own methods to isolate the blood.
When the flood dragon’s blood landed on the ground, black smoke rose from the dark ground, emitting a sizzling sound. It was very terrifying.
The swordsman remained impassive, but at that moment he was about to put his sword back into its scabbard.
“I warned you!”
With that, the swordsman walked slowly between the two brothers, who were already dumbfounded.
The two brothers were already scared silly and did not know how to cause trouble at all. They only remembered after the swordsman walked past them. They looked at the flood dragon to ask, but they did not dare to speak.
“What are you waiting for? Kill him!”
The flood dragon’s eyes were red, and his hatred seemed to be spreading.
He gritted his teeth and glared at his brothers, but they were too terrified to give chase.
“Brother Long, your hand is here. You should put it back first.”
“That’s right, Brother Long. You’re so seriously injured. Don’t tell me there’s some poison on his sword? Let’s heal first!”
When the flood dragon saw that the two brothers, who had been aggressive just a moment ago, had become such cowards, he gritted his teeth in anger. However, there was nothing he could do. After bringing the two of them over, he did not expect them to do anything serious.
“Useless thing!” The flood dragon gritted his teeth. His arms drooped under his body, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
Looking at the place where the arm was originally severed, something suddenly began to slowly squirm out. The thing did not move quickly at first. After a while, an embryonic form could be seen. It was actually a very young palm.
As soon as this hand took on a new appearance, it grew very quickly and soon returned to its original appearance.
A hard purple scale covered the arm, which was restored to its original state.
