Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 778 - 755 Ma Family (3/3)
Chapter 778: Chapter 755 Ma Family (3/3)
Zhou Heng spared Lu Dongyun, not delivering a fatal blow; otherwise, Lu wouldn’t have just been beaten miserably but would have been smashed to pieces!
—This was beyond doubt! Originally, when Zhou Heng punched, even the Creation Sovereign Zhou Yuhe’s bones had broken, a power that could have killed the Sublimation Emperor in an instant!
The reason he hadn’t killed him was that Lu Dongyun never harbored the intent to kill, merely wanting to take him back to the Immortal Domain to let his "superior" educate him. Zhou Heng had always been clear about gratitude and grudges, and seeing this, he had shown mercy.
After all, Lu Dongyun was a Sublimation Emperor, and he soon regained consciousness. He groaned, and then his gaze found Zhou Heng. He couldn’t help but blush; he had bragged about capturing Zhou Heng and taking him back to the Immortal Domain, but he ended up knocked out by Zhou Heng!
Luckily, Zhou Heng hadn’t been intent on killing him; otherwise, he surely wouldn’t have escaped death a moment ago!
The old man struggled to his feet, too embarrassed to speak to Zhou Heng, merely giving him a deep look before scampering away sheepishly.
"Let’s go. We’re heading to Golden Cloud City!"
The place was drenched in blood, hardly a fitting place for conversation. Zhou Heng, accompanied by four women and the Black Donkey, set out directly for Golden Cloud City.
Hu Yin was young and initially unfazed by the bloody slaughter, but after returning to the Immortal Residence, she began to vomit, unable to eat for days. However, the Red Dragon Empress and the others were unaffected, having lost only their memories, not their nature.
For the two Dragon Empresses, having claimed countless lives in their lifetimes, a few deaths meant little. Mu Tongtong had also witnessed slaughter before and had long since become accustomed to it within her bones.
As for the Black Donkey... what would a donkey care about human life and death?
"Zhou Heng, teach me cultivation!" The Red Dragon Empress clung to him again, admiration undisguised on her face. Although she had lost her memory, as a martial artist, she inherently admired the strong. Having seen Zhou Heng’s imposing manner several times, she had become infatuated.
She might be lazy, but Zhou Heng had merely tapped Hu Yin with his finger and the little girl became an expert, which made her envious.
Zhou Heng sighed and said, "You are far more powerful than I am. Once we leave here, you’ll understand!"
"But I don’t understand anything!" the Red Dragon Empress flirted with Zhou Heng, throwing seductive glances, "Also, I think I’m starting to like you a bit, these pectoral muscles... so well-developed!"
Her eyes were full of stars as she reached out to touch Zhou Heng’s chest.
Damn, amnesia and she’s still flirting?
Zhou Heng quickly jumped away; he definitely did not want to touch this woman. What if she regained her memories and power later? Wouldn’t she turn the world upside down? Moreover, dealing with an amnesiac woman was something he could not bear to do!
"Second sister, stop embarrassing yourself, come with me!" The Blue Dragon Empress rushed over, grabbed the Red Dragon Empress, and walked away, shooting Zhou Heng an angry glare as she passed.
This woman had been at odds with Zhou Heng ever since they entered. It seemed that their previous clash had deeply ingrained a grudge in this Dragon Sovereign, so much so that even with memory loss, she still found Zhou Heng disagreeable, her hostility overtly apparent.
The personalities of these two Dragon Sovereigns were truly poles apart.
Once Hu Yin had slightly recovered, Zhou Heng resumed their journey. After half a day, they arrived at Golden Yuan City.
The Ma Family was the top household in Golden Yuan City and stood out among others because they were the only ones with a Spirit Sea Realm expert; other families at best possessed a few Mountains and Rivers Realm old ancestors.
Consequently, the members of the Ma Family could walk sideways in Golden Yuan City! Not only in Golden Yuan City, but if they went to the outskirts, the members of the Ma Family were treated almost like the Emperor, exalted wherever they appeared.
Zhou Heng learned that here the Martial Path Forces formed a giant circle with the Immortal Domain at the very center, accessible only via the Immortal-Ascension Bridge. As one moved outward from the center, the level of the Martial Path decreased.
The Spirit Sea Realm was already quite close to the central area, which meant the Ma Family could influence a vast territory.
The Red Dragon Empress, who was lazy and lacked curiosity, did not wish to come out from the Immortal Residence upon arriving in Golden Yuan City. She preferred to lie in bed and sleep. Thus, Zhou Heng took the Blue Dragon Empress, Mu Tongtong, and Hu Yin for a walk through the city streets, leaving the Black Donkey in the Immortal Residence for its habit of biting women’s dresses.
"Wow—" "Wow—"
Seeing the prosperity of Golden Yuan City for the "first" time, they all exclaimed in surprise, drawing the gazes of pedestrians along the way. The Blue Dragon Empress was exceptionally beautiful, with her blue hair and horns on her head. This appearance couldn’t help but draw attention.
Along the way, they encountered several groups of rogues trying to take advantage, but they were naturally kicked away by Zhou Heng.
The Ma Family was too well-known in Golden Yuan City, and just by asking a few people, Zhou Heng and his companions found their way to the entrance of Ma Mansion.
As the first household of Golden Yuan City, the scale of their residence was naturally immense, occupying almost a third of the entire city, illustrating the phrase "great family, great business" to the fullest.
At the entrance, forty-five robust men stood in five groups, nine in each group, perhaps symbolizing the supreme status of nine-to-five.
Seeing Zhou Heng and his group approach, a man wearing a purple helmet who appeared to be the leader stepped forward—because he was the only one wearing a helmet—and yelled, "Those who come, kneel down and state your names!"
What grand rules, kneeling to report a name before entering?
Zhou Heng smiled faintly and said, "Sure, you kneel down first!"
Slap! The burly man felt a chilling sensation inside and involuntarily knelt down, his knees striking the ground so hard that the tiles beneath shattered! Yet, he seemed oblivious, only knowing that his body was trembling.
Strange!
Zhou Heng looked at the ground. Earlier, when Lu Dongyun had utilized the power of the Sublimation Sovereign, it only created a few holes, yet this man of Initial Separation Realm could also crush the tiles with a mere kneel—the disparity in strength was pitifully small!
This couldn’t just be explained by the stability of space!
Zhou Heng threw a casual punch, and bang, a hole instantly appeared on the ground. However, compared to his terrifying strength, such destruction was almost negligible!
Why had he noticed this anomaly earlier yet failed to deeply consider it?
It was as if a consciousness was interfering from somewhere, causing him to overlook this suspicious point that should have been more than obvious!
In the moment of his distraction, the remaining guards at the door had already slipped into the mansion to alert others.
Someone dared to disrupt their proceedings!
How many years had it been since they encountered such a thing?
Many from the Ma Family rushed out excitedly upon hearing the news. They all wanted to see who was so audacious as to provoke them by coming to their residence! They climbed up the walls, and those of a higher status gathered at the door, yet none of them spoke.
Because they weren’t qualified to.
A middle-aged man with a stern face walked out. A powerful aura circulated around him, intimidating to the soul. He was an Open Heaven Realm expert from the Ma Family who happened to be on duty today, responsible for patrolling.
"Capture him, chop him into pieces, and feed him to the dogs!" were his first and last words.
Zhou Heng’s gaze shifted, and a terrifying pressure rolled out. The Ma Family’s Open Heaven Realm expert turned into a mist of blood, leaving not even a trace of bone!
Sss!
Many of the Ma Family members had originally run out to watch the excitement, but now they felt ice cold from their feet to their bodies, as a chilling air rose from their feet and spread throughout their bodies.
Zhou Heng said indifferently, "If you can’t speak human language, then don’t speak at all! Is there anyone who can speak human language, come out!" His voice, though not loud, spread throughout Golden Yuan City. Isn’t it easy for a Sublimation Sovereign to achieve this?
"Sir, where has the Han Family offended you to warrant such aggression?" a voice rang out from deep within the Ma residence.
"I’m not used to talking through walls, come out!" Zhou Heng casually reached out his hand and grabbed, and an old man with a stooping posture appeared before him, still holding a cup of steaming hot tea, which was being brought to his mouth.
However, his motion stopped abruptly, his face filled with a ghostly expression.
Obviously, he was sitting and drinking tea inside the house just a moment ago but was suddenly grabbed by Zhou Heng. This mysterious ability chilled him to the bone.
"You-you-you——" The old man’s voice trembled, and his body shook as well.
The others from the Ma Family felt a stronger chill affecting them.
This was one of their family’s Mountains and Rivers Realm Elders! The one who had just spoken, yet he was captured in the blink of an eye. How could they accept this!
"Can you speak human language?" Zhou Heng asked, somewhat impatiently.
"Yes! Yes!" The old man quickly nodded continuously. He knew their family had encountered a tough opponent, as the other party was too powerful. He didn’t even realize how he had been captured—such a capability was at least of the Spirit Sea Realm level!
Their family only had one Old Ancestor who was a Spiritual Sea Realm Expert!
Zhou Heng smiled. "Go call your Young Master Qi here. I have questions for him!"
Young Master Qi? Ma Jianxiong? Wasn’t this indulgent heir known only for squandering his family wealth and womanizing? How could he be connected with a Spiritual Sea Realm Expert? Could it be... The old man’s heart trembled, "Yes! Yes! Senior, please wait a moment. I will immediately bring him here!"
Senior? Junior?
Seeing the white-bearded family elder referring to the young Zhou Heng as "senior," the people of Ma Family felt an unwilling rage, but then they thought, once the Old Ancestor emerges from seclusion, he would surely suppress Zhou Heng!
Let him be arrogant for now.
"Hurry up!" Zhou Heng nodded, placing his hands behind his back, still puzzled as to why the nature of heaven and earth here was so strange.
Aside from him, those who entered had their memories erased and their cultivation levels lost, even the Super Creation Emperors! This must be some kind of law, so Black Sword could resolve it, otherwise, Black Sword itself wouldn’t likely succeed.
"Hehehe, I’ve been in seclusion for merely seven years, and the world has already changed, and someone dares to attack my Ma Family!" After a short while, a cold sneer and a Yin Shenshen voice emerged from the Ma Mansion.
"Old Ancestor!" Ma Family members immediately shouted excitedly as if invigorated. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote and follow on qidian.com. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users please visit m.qidian.com to read.)
