This Martial Saint's Health Bar is Too Thick!

Chapter 55: The wind and clouds of the world rise from our generation



Datong Prefecture City, Zhang Mansion.

Shangguan Xiao was anxiously waiting for news.

She knew that today was the day Li Fei was supposed to pick up the goods, and before this, she had also been asking the Zhang Family to use their spies to probe the movements of various forces.

Just half an hour ago, she suddenly received a message from Zhang Zedong: the Zhang Family's spies had found out about the movements of the "Beast King," "Poison King," and "Gun King."

It was suspected that the "Beast King" Yu Longqing was no longer at Human Face Villa, and the "Poison King's" Ximen Hui, as well as "Gun King's" Ouyang Cheng, had also left Datong Prefecture City.

The fact that these three were not around at this time, the most likely thing they would do, of course, was to ambush the Green-faced Ghost!

Therefore, Shangguan Xiao rushed to Zhang Mansion immediately, waiting for the Zhang Family's spies to gather more detailed information.

After waiting for nearly an hour, hurried footsteps approached.

Shangguan Xiao turned around immediately, only to see a man running into the hall, looking at Zhang Zedong who was sitting in his seat:

"Second Master, we've just confirmed it, someone likely from Ximen Hui was spotted in Hongshan Town yesterday."

"Hongshan Town?!"

Shangguan Xiao's voice rose as she directly asked, "Are you sure?"

The newcomer looked at Shangguan Xiao and nodded: "Seventy percent sure, that person is indeed from Ximen Hui."

"Hongshan Town..."

Zhang Zedong frowned.

The town's location was to the north of Datong Prefecture, completely opposite the direction of Baiyang City. If Yu Longqing was truly fooled by the Green-faced Ghost's blinding magic, then Ximen Hui should not have appeared in Hongshan Town.

Thinking this, he looked towards Shangguan Xiao:

"Little sister..."

"We're in trouble!"

Shangguan Xiao's expression was grave.

She now could almost confirm that Yu Longqing had taken people to Gushi Town and would ambush the convoy on their return trip.

"Ximen Hui and Ouyang Cheng, plus Yu Longqing, makes three Tao Foundation Stage powers. Yu Longqing will definitely bring his Exotic Beasts. It's possible that both the Horned Tiger Beast and Snow Leopard Beast went as well — it's equivalent to five Tao Foundation Combat Powers surrounding and attacking the Green-faced Ghost! If the 'Shadow King' has also secretly dispatched someone..."

Zhang Zedong silently calculated the comparison of the combat powers in his heart, and his heart gradually sank.

Although the Green-faced Ghost had just reached the ninth position on Feng Province's Leaderboard, facing five or perhaps six Tao Foundation Combat Powers alone, he would likely have a slim chance of survival!

He and Shangguan Xiao were still unaware that the Chen Family's old ancestor had also reached the Tao Foundation Stage, otherwise, they would be even more desperate.

"Will your brother be able to make it in time?"

Zhang Zedong asked.

Although he knew it was likely too late, he still couldn't help asking.

Shangguan Xiao shook her head: "My brother isn't convenient to intervene in the conflicts of the Prefecture City, or else it would attract even more trouble."

If Hao Yi could take action freely, she would not have stopped him in the first place, but instead, would have gone back to Datong Prefecture City with him.

Zhang Zedong fell silent at her answer.

More than thirty years ago, he wasn't in Datong Prefecture, so he wasn't clear about the specifics of that catastrophe.

By the time he received news, Shangguan Xiao had already announced her break with the family.

After that, Hao Yi disappeared without a trace, and all information about him was sealed, making it very difficult to find out anything.

Shangguan Xiao's eyes grew dim.

"I remember your brother was also surrounded and attacked by many Tao Foundation Stage powerhouses before, right?"

Zhang Zedong suddenly asked.

Hearing this, Shangguan Xiao smiled. She knew her second brother brought this up to comfort her.

"Yes, back then the most dangerous battle my brother faced was being surrounded by six Tao Foundation Stage powerhouses."

Shangguan Xiao said.

"Also six Tao Foundation Stage?"

Hearing this, Zhang Zedong suddenly took interest and pursued the question, "How strong were these six?"

Even if they were all at Tao Foundation Stage, combat powers were divided into eight different ranks.

"Three Rank 3, two Rank 4, and one Rank 5."

Shangguan Xiao listed them off like treasures.

"And the outcome?"

Zhang Zedong hadn't expected the attacking lineup to be so strong, even stronger than the forces the Green-faced Ghost was likely to face today.

"My brother fought back and killed four, and scared away two."

Shangguan Xiao spoke calmly.

"...Impressive!"

Zhang Zedong after holding back for a while, could only describe it in two words.

He found it such a pity that such a formidable person was now confined to a small place like Xing City, unable to utilize his skills.

"Little sister, if your brother could do it back then, maybe the Green-faced Ghost could do it today too!"

Zhang Zedong stepped forward to Shangguan Xiao, trying to comfort her.

Although, he himself did not quite believe it.

Shangguan Xiao was taken aback, then turned to look outside the door, murmuring:

"Yes, I believe he can do it too, after all... he always creates miracles."

At this moment, outside the room, the sky was high, the clouds were serene, and the sunlight was just right.

...

Wu'an University.

Exotic Beast Breeding Area.

At the Ice Mountain District that Li Fei had once visited, Xu Jing was lying on a rattan chair in the sun, holding the white fox.

Moments later, someone approached the courtyard where he was staying, bowed, and said:

"Professor Xu, there's news."

"Speak."

Xu Jing, with his eyes closed lying on the rattan chair, said lightly.

"We can now confirm that Yu Longqing, Ximen Hui, and Ouyang Cheng have gone to Gushi Town. Also, Yu Longqing had earlier smuggled those two Exotic Beasts over there."

The reporter informed.

"Hmm, what about Hao Yi, any movement?"

Xu Jing didn't care about how many Tao Foundation Stages had left; he was always only concerned about one person — Hao Yi.

"Hao Yi is still in Xing City."

"How boring!"

Xu Jing opened his eyes and shook his head.

Then he turned to the side: "You suddenly came here, are you afraid I'll go to Xing City? Do you think you can keep me here?"

As his words ended, a figure emerged from behind a distant ice mountain.
