C119 Get in There
Zhu Ziqiao looked at the tall red lacquered door in front of her and was momentarily stunned. But very quickly, a cold glint flashed across her eyes.
"Wen Zhongming!"
Zhu Ziqiao's pretty face was cold and her eyes were cold.
If it was before this, she would have been hesitant. After all, although Wen Zhongming was only her adoptive father and forced her to marry Liu. But no matter what, Wen Zhongming had adopted her when she had no one to rely on. If it wasn't for Wen Zhongming, she would have long become a pile of bones by the roadside.
However, the truth of the matter was like pouring a bucket of cold water on Zhu Ziqiao's head, causing her entire body to feel cold.
Wen Zhongming was actually her enemy, and it was an irreconcilable enmity!
At the same time, Wen Zhongming adopted her. It was actually because he suspected that her parents hid more treasures in a certain place for her, wanting to obtain clues from her, that he let her live so long and did not kill her!
Zhu Ziqiao sneered. In that case, she really had to thank Wen Zhongming!
"Miss, Miss, wait a moment. I will go and inform Master..." Seeing Zhu Ziqiao holding a long sword and walking side by side with Lin Cheng, the servants guarding the door became very nervous and stammered.
"I am here to find Wen Zhongming today. It has nothing to do with you guys. Those who have nothing to do with me can leave. I will not stop you." Zhu Ziqiao said calmly, "If you stay, I will treat you as my enemy. I will not show mercy to my enemies. "
The guards at the door looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Everyone in the family knew that the Eldest Miss had left the family without permission, causing the family head to be furious. Furthermore, he had said that anyone who saw the Eldest Miss would be captured if they had the ability. If it was not possible, they had to report it to the family immediately.
It could be said that the young lady was a fugitive for the Wen Family.
Therefore, when they heard what Zhu Ziqiao said, everyone thought that they had misheard her. Shouldn't they be the ones to arrest Eldest Miss? Why did it sound like they were the weaker party?
Even though they did not dare to kill Zhu Ziqiao, being looked down upon like this made their faces feel uncomfortable.
"Miss, the patriarch has ordered that anyone from the Wen Family who sees Miss can immediately send her back to the Wen Family!" A guard said with a gloomy face, "Eldest Miss, I'm sorry. We are also following orders..."
"Swoosh!"
Before he could finish his words, Zhu Ziqiao pulled out her sword. In the next moment, the guard only felt a flash of cold light in front of him. With a poof, a heart-piercing pain spread throughout his entire body.
When he finally reacted, he realized that his right hand that was holding the weapon had actually been pierced by Zhu Ziqiao's long sword.
"... " Ah! "
He screamed and quickly retreated. However, at this moment, he realized that Zhu Ziqiao's speed was even faster than his. In the blink of an eye, she had already arrived in front of him, making it impossible for him to avoid her.
Swoosh!
When the cold sword light struck him like lightning, he closed his eyes in despair. In the next moment, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His head buzzed and he instantly fainted.
... "Expert!"
This was his last thought before he fainted.
In that instant, the speed that Zhu Ziqiao displayed... Her strength and that terrifying elemental energy fluctuation made the guard understand in an instant. Zhu Ziqiao was no longer the Junior Cultivating Warrior who only had Body-refining Stage Cultivation Level in the past, but a powerhouse whose strength had already reached a level that made him feel fear!
Not only him, all the other guards were also stunned. They looked at Zhu Ziqiao with disbelief. They also felt the terrifying fluctuation coming from Zhu Ziqiao's body. That kind of uncontrollable fear made them clearly know the gap between them and Zhu Ziqiao.
"Big, Big Miss..."
The few guards closest to Zhu Ziqiao subconsciously swallowed their saliva and opened their mouths with difficulty. But before they could finish their words, they were interrupted.
Zhu Ziqiao coldly said, "This time it is crippling one of your hands, but next time, it will not be so cheap! Within ten breaths, those who are still here are my enemies!"
All of the guards looked at each other and saw the fear and hesitation in each other's eyes. After a few breaths, someone took a step forward and cupped his fist towards Zhu Ziqiao before quickly turning around and leaving.
With the first person taking the lead, the others also hurriedly bowed to Zhu Ziqiao before leaving, afraid that if they were too slow, Zhu Ziqiao would treat them as enemies.
They knew their own limitations. With Zhu Ziqiao's terrifying strength, wanting to take their lives was as easy as crushing an ant.
In just a few breaths, everyone at the main gate had left. Not a single one was left.
Zhu Ziqiao's expression was calm and did not have the slightest bit of complacency from scaring away these guards. She only had one goal today, to take revenge for her parents. As for the others, it was not within her consideration.
However, Lin Cheng noticed that the guards outside the gate had been scared away. However, there were still a few people who did not leave. Instead, they turned around and ran into the courtyard.
"It seems like they have gone to report to Wen Zhongming." Lin Cheng said.
"Let's go."
Zhu Ziqiao immediately said, "Be careful."
She did not want Lin Cheng to be injured because of her revenge. She was still afraid of Wen Zhongming's strength.
Lin Cheng smiled. "I was afraid that Wen Zhongming would turn around and run away when he heard us."
Zhu Ziqiao rolled her eyes at him. This stinky little thief... The war was imminent, but he was still in the mood to joke... Wen Zhongming was already an expert with one foot into the Core Sea Stage, and it was very likely that he had already become a cultivator. Would he not even dare to fight? Would he be scared away?
"Master of Wen Family, you have to think about it. Are these pills and weapons more important, or are the lives of hundreds of people in Wen Family more important?"
In the secret chamber of Wen Family, Gui Dehan said complacently. His eyes had been looking at the wooden shelves in the secret chamber. Those jade bottles and the treasured sabers and other weapons hanging on the walls had made him very envious.
Wen Zhongming's face was ashen, and his eyes were ruthless. He gritted his teeth and said, "Gui Dehan, don't push your luck. I, Wen Zhongming, am not a match for the cultivator. However, I won't allow you to humiliate me as you wish. At most, it will be a life and death struggle. At the very least, I can kill you first! "
Gui Dehan was stunned for a moment. His facial expression changed slightly, then he forced a smile and said, "Master of Wen Family, what's the point of saying such words now? You should know that if I don't return in another two hours... At that time, Miss Xhu and her partner will come personally. At that time... Not only will the two of you fall out with each other, it will also be the time for the Wen Family to face a disaster. "
Wen Zhongming's face was taut. His eyes were filled with killing intent and fury as he stared at Gui Dehan.
Gui Dehan's heart was pounding under his gaze, and he couldn't help but stutter and ask, "Master of Wen Family, what, what do you want to do? You have to think clearly, is your life more important or..."
"Little man!"
Wen Zhongming gritted his teeth and cursed. His eyes were gloomy, and killing intent was raging in his heart. All these years, it had always been him, Wen Zhongming, threatening others, or even killing them. When had he ever been threatened like this?
However, when he thought of Zhu Ziqiao, who had already become a cultivator, and how she knew that he had killed her parents, Wen Zhongming felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured on his head. His entire body felt cold.
In the end, he could only clench his teeth and surrender.
Although Gui Dehan was a despicable person, there was one thing he said that was correct. Between the lives of so many people from the Wen Family and the pill, cultivation techniques, weapons, and other things in the secret chamber... He could only choose to save his life.
Even if he had to, he could only protect his own life!
Not only was Gui Dehan not angry when he was called a villain, he even laughed out loud. Because this meant that Wen Zhongming had once again lowered his head to him, "The Wen Family Master has rewarded me. Who asked me to follow Big Brother Zhu? Now, he has gained the trust of Miss Xhu!"
"Hmph!"
When Wen Zhongming heard Gui Dehan mention Zhu Ziqiao's father, his face immediately turned ashen as he coldly snorted. He turned his head around and carefully copied the Heart Style of Profound Arts, no longer paying attention to Gui Dehan.
Gui Dehan saw this and could not help but feel even more proud. He walked back and forth in front of a few wooden shelves with his hands behind his back, choosing what he was going to take away.
"If only I could have a Storage Bag!"
Gui Dehan could not help but feel some regret in his heart. If there was a Storage Bag... He could take away everything here. This was the wealth that Wen Zhongming had accumulated over the years. If it fell into his hands, it would be enough for him to achieve great things.
However, Gui Dehan knew that this was only a thought. How could the Storage Bag be so easy to obtain? Perhaps even an expert like Wen Zhongming did not have a Storage Bag. That was a treasure that only cultivator could use and possess!0
The Heart Style of Profound Arts was abstruse and difficult to understand. Just copying it had already made Wen Zhongming spend a lot of effort. Every word he wrote would consume a lot of his energy.
It took nearly half an incense stick of time for Wen Zhongming to copy down the Heart Style of Profound Arts on the Cattlehide Roll.
He carefully looked at it from top to bottom again. After that, he rolled up the Cattlehide Roll once again. He looked at it once more with great reluctance before putting it back into the jade box.
"I will hand the thing over to you now. I hope Zhu Ziqiao can keep her word... You, what are you doing?!"
Wen Zhongming had just said that he hoped Zhu Ziqiao would keep her word and let him go. However, when he turned his head to look at Gui Dehan, he saw a scene that almost made him fly into a rage.
He did not know when Gui Dehan had taken off his outer robe, but he had actually wrapped most of the pill, herbs, and cultivation techniques on the wooden frame!
Other than the weapon being too long to be carried, Gui Dehan almost swept away everything on the wooden frame!
When Wen Zhongming saw this scene, he felt a surge of anger rush to his head. He was practically furious. "Gui Dehan, how dare you..."
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Before he could finish his words, a hurried knocking sound was heard from outside the secret chamber. At the same time, a hurried voice was heard. "Chief, something bad has happened. Eldest Miss and another young expert have fought their way in..."
