Nine Revolutions Star Transformation-Chapter 572 - 589: Journey to the Imperial City
Chu Linfeng and Ouyang Qian looked at these guards without taking any action. These people were too weak to even have the qualification to make them move; killing them would be a matter of a wave of the hand.
At this moment, a guard walked up to Ouyang Qian and said, "What a beautiful girl! Haven’t seen such a water spirit girl for a long time. Big brother, you’re going to have a great time today, don’t forget about your brothers."
The language was extremely offensive. Ouyang Qian, a princess of the Mermaid Country, had never been subjected to such unpleasant words and was instantly furious. Before Chu Linfeng could act, she directly swung a palm at the opponent’s chest.
The guard, like a kite with a broken string, flew dozens of meters away, with a rain of blood falling in the air, and when he landed, he was dead beyond doubt, for the power of the Seventh Layer of Divine Martial Realm was not something guards who hadn’t even broken into Earth Martial Realm could compare to.
"You bitch, you dare to kill my brother, you’re asking for death!" Another guard became furious as he saw his brother being violently sent flying dozens of meters without any response.
Perhaps blinded by anger, to instantly kill someone with similar strength suggests obvious power, yet this guy picked up his knife and directly swung towards Ouyang Qian, hoping this strike would kill her directly.
Chu Linfeng slightly furrowed his brows, intending to keep a low profile, yet unexpectedly encountered such oblivious people in this small place. Ouyang Qian naturally wasn’t afraid of these men, but as her man, it was his duty to resolve such trouble.
Then, with a flash of his figure, he caught the large knife swung by the guard with one hand, then lightly flung it, and the guy, along with the knife, was sent flying several meters, falling with his head broken and bleeding a lot.
The guard immediately climbed up but was stopped by the first speaking guard, "Hehe, I didn’t realize you people were experts, really underestimated you. If you want to enter Yueqi City, there’s no way, let me see how tough you really are."
After saying that, the guard drew a long sword from his Storage Belt, which upon Chu Linfeng’s gaze turned out to be a Middle Grade Profound Tier Weapon, while this guard was just trash of Earth Martial Realm First and Second Layers, killing him really wasn’t of any interest.
"I don’t want to kill. If you know what’s good for you, move aside, or else don’t blame me for being rude." Chu Linfeng spat out a sentence, wasting time with these people was really not worth it.
"Kid, don’t boast too much, your Master Wu has seen all kinds of experts. Today, if I don’t give you a lesson, you’d really think there’s no one in Yueqi City." The guard said.
Chu Linfeng was instantly angry, given the chance and you don’t take it, don’t blame me for being rude. With a quick flash of figure and a few punches, without using Five Elements Power, he easily killed these guards in an instant.
Only the talking guard was left alive, as he needed to learn some information from his mouth. Such noise at the city gate naturally alarmed many passersby to come and watch.
People were amazed at how such a young Chu Linfeng had such power, and worried for him killing guards at the city gate.
These guards were usually arrogant and tyrannical, bullying civilians, many dared to be angry but not speak. Now there was someone standing up, naturally, it was heartening, but the ensuing danger was also terrifying.
"You... who exactly are you, to dare to kill guards of Yue Ling Country, you will be hunted down everywhere!" The guard was clever, quickly realizing Chu Linfeng could not be offended but had to say something for effect, and as he prepared to leave, Chu Linfeng smiled and said:
"Did I say you could leave? Earlier I gave you all a chance, but you didn’t cherish it, now stay here willingly, if little lord is in a good mood perhaps you might survive, otherwise those lying on the ground are your example."
Hearing this, the guard’s face turned pale, his earlier bravado vanished immediately, looking at Chu Linfeng and said: "Young master, it’s the small one who didn’t see Mount Tai, you have great generosity, don’t take offense at small ones, please lift your hand spare this small one’s insignificant life."
"Haha, you now know to beg for mercy. Today, little lord does not want more trouble, if you are obedient, I’ll spare you, otherwise..." Chu Linfeng paused, didn’t finish his sentence, but it was clearly understood.
At this point, the onlooking passersby realized this young man was someone not to be trifled with, enough to make Leader Wu so scared, which was really rare.
"Yes, yes, yes! Young master, if you need anything done by the small one, please instruct, and whatever the small one can do will be done with full effort." Leader Wu said.
"Actually, it’s nothing. This is Yue Ling Country, right? How to get to Mermaid Country? How far from here to your Yue Ling Country Imperial City?" Chu Linfeng asked.
"Mermaid Country? Young master, I’m sorry, the small one has never even heard of that name. If young master wants to go to the Imperial City, it would take several days by carriage, the small one can arrange a carriage, the direction of the Imperial City is directly north, just go straight." Leader Wu said.
Chu Linfeng’s mind was already clear, this should be another region’s nation, only by going to the Imperial City might he gain some useful information, this world is really big, transported to a place he didn’t even know.
"You can leave now; consider this a lesson. If I find out you’ve been bullying others again, I might have to take your life. Be careful." Lin Feng said.
Leader Hu nodded repeatedly and quickly left, as if afraid Lin Feng might change his mind. "Let’s go take a look at the Imperial City of Moon Spirit Country; we might get some useful information." Lin Feng said.
The four immediately soared into the sky, astonishing the onlookers whose faces were filled with disbelief. Someone suddenly exclaimed, "My heavens, these people are actually Celestial Martial Realm experts! I can’t believe I’ve actually seen Celestial Martial Realm experts in my lifetime!"
The fleeing Leader Wu felt a chill on his back upon seeing Lin Feng’s group departing. He broke into a cold sweat, realizing he had provoked Celestial Martial Realm experts—practically a death wish. Had he known Lin Feng could slay Saint Martial Realm masters, he might have wet his pants...
Lin Feng and the four flew in the direction Leader Wu indicated. "Lin Feng, why didn’t you kill that guy? Keeping someone like him alive wastes resources, and he bullies many people. You’re actually doing the public a favor." Chu Linyue asked.
"Haha, Linyue, why didn’t you take action? Is slaying such people not beneath me?" Lin Feng replied with a laugh.
"Lin Feng, why have I never heard of Black Mountain Country and Moon Spirit Country? I’m quite familiar with the nations around the Empire, yet I haven’t seen them mentioned in the records. What kind of place have we actually arrived at?" Yuwen Qingkong asked then.
Lin Feng was slightly surprised; it was normal for him not to know, but even Yuwen Qingkong’s ignorance was a bit unexpected. He really didn’t understand where this teleportation had sent them.
"Well, there’s no point in worrying, let’s wait until we reach the Imperial City to figure things out. With our strength, we can easily travel anywhere in this country. I refuse to believe we can’t return to the Celestial Dragon Empire." Lin Feng said.
Leader Wu mentioned that traveling by carriage would take several dozen days—a mere few thousand miles for Lin Feng and his group. Had Lin Feng been traveling alone, a few instances of Instant Teleportation would suffice to reach.
By dusk, they saw a massive city wall. They passed a few towns along the way but didn’t stop, not wanting to waste time.
A few miles away from the Imperial City, the four discreetly landed to avoid attracting attention from travelers on the main road, even disguising themselves to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Once on the main road, the traffic noticeably increased, and soon they reached fifty meters outside the city wall, where Lin Feng’s group stopped.
The city wall was very high, similar to the Celestial Dragon Empire’s, and seemed endless. Numerous guards in silver armor patrolled there, appearing grand.
At the city gate, dozens of guards checked the comings and goings of civilians, each possessing a white token, presumably the City Entry Order.
Noticed a middle-aged man approaching the city gate, Lin Feng stepped up to ask, "Brother, do you need a token to enter the Imperial City of Moon Spirit Country? We’re here for the first time and know very little, so we’re asking you."
The middle-aged man glanced at Lin Feng before responding, "Of course you need a token. Moon Spirit Country is at war with Black Mountain Country, so checks are strict to prevent spies. You’re not from Black Mountain Country, are you?"
The middle-aged man startled himself and hurriedly walked away, afraid to be associated with Lin Feng’s group and get involved.
"What now? We can’t enter the city without a token. Should we just fly in?" Lin Feng suggested.
"Lin Feng, you’re an unparalleled master. A little city gate can’t stop you, can it? Let’s just go in. If anyone dares to stop us, we’ll kill them—simple as that." Chu Linyue said.
"I agree, just head straight in. Stirring things up may even draw out important figures from the Imperial City, making it easier to gather information later." Ouyang Qian said.
Yuwen Qingkong remained silent but nodded, clearly agreeing with Ouyang Qian.
"Alright, let’s go straight in and see if those guards know their place. If not, killing a few won’t hurt; I’ve slain thousands, a few more don’t matter." Lin Feng laughed.
The four then headed toward the city gate...(No need for drip infusions tomorrow, expect more updates, continuing at midnight.)
