C145 And Then He Would Meet the General of the City
He saw that Nangong Jinglan was very close to Zhang Lingfeng, so he guessed that Zhang Lingfeng's identity in the Profound Heaven Sword Sect wasn't simple. Perhaps he had a very strong backer, so he really wanted to get on good terms with him.
When he thought about the grudge he had with the Zhao Family in the Imperial City, Qin Tianhong asked him to guard Qin Zhong and temporarily escort Zhang Lingfeng out of the city.
Regarding this, Zhang Lingfeng did not reject Qin Tianhong's good intentions.
At this moment, he could roughly guess why Qin Tianhong was so interested in him.
He was afraid that just like Nangong Jinglan, they all thought that there was a big figure behind him.
However, Zhang Lingfeng did not intend to explain anything.
Having a strong person behind him as his backing and relying on the name of a strong person to pretend to be superior outside, it seemed like this feeling was not bad either.
After parting with Qin Tianhong, Zhang Lingfeng followed Nangong Jinglan and headed towards the Star Scattering Chamber of Commerce. They planned to go and get the batch of Tier 4 Lifespan Increasing Pills they had bought.
Qin Zhong, who was a Life and Death Stage, was ordered by Qin Tianhong to escort Zhang Lingfeng out of the city, so he temporarily followed Zhang Lingfeng.
After arriving at the Star Scattering Chamber of Commerce and obtaining the batch of Lifespan Increasing Pills, Zhang Lingfeng bid farewell to Nangong Jinglan.
But before he said goodbye, he asked Nangong Jinglan to help him and let her tell Zhao Wuji the news of him leaving the city.
Of course, when he revealed the news, he had to do it naturally. He could not let the other party have any suspicions.
Although Nangong Jinglan was curious about Zhang Lingfeng's intention, she still agreed.
But before Zhang Lingfeng left, Nangong Jinglan faintly mentioned that if he had Spiritual Materials to sell in the future, he could consider Star Scattering Chamber of Commerce.
Zhang Lingfeng naturally understood Nangong Jinglan's intention. The reason why she was so close to him was probably because she wanted to buy more Spiritual Materials from him in the future.
To be honest, Zhang Lingfeng had a good impression of the Star Scattering Chamber of Commerce and Nangong Jinglan. Naturally, he agreed readily. He said that if he had more Spiritual Materials in the future, he would definitely choose the Star Scattering Chamber of Commerce.
After getting Zhang Lingfeng's promise, Nangong Jinglan was both happy and satisfied. She immediately sent someone to handle the matters that Zhang Lingfeng instructed her to do.
She revealed the news of his departure to the Imperial City's Zhao Family.
When Zhao Wuji found out that Zhang Lingfeng was going to leave the city, his heart immediately surged with endless killing intent.
His most beloved son, Zhao Chong, had his cultivation base crippled by Zhang Lingfeng.
Furthermore, in the auction venue, not only did he lose face because of that brat, he was also cheated by him. How could Zhao Wuji not hate him?
However, he knew that Zhang Lingfeng was protected by the First Prince and Star Scattering Chamber of Commerce, so he didn't dare to attack him openly.
Knowing that Zhang Lingfeng was going to leave the city by himself, he felt that his chance had come. Immediately, he led a group of powerful experts and prepared to kill Zhang Lingfeng outside the Imperial City.
As long as he kept this matter a secret and cleaned up all traces, no one would know that he was the one who did it.
Even if there were people who suspected him and there was no evidence at all, they would not be able to do anything to him.
Although the Zhao Family was not a big family in the Imperial City, there were still Life and Death Stage warriors in the family.
If an ordinary person wanted to target the Zhao Family, they would have to think twice.
Speaking of which, when Zhao Wuji was leading the powerful warriors out of the city and preparing to kill Zhang Lingfeng, Zhang Lingfeng had already arrived at the city gate of Great Qin Imperial City under Qin Zhong's escort.
The general guarding the city was maintaining order at the city gate.
When he thought about the day before, a brat from a village who relied on the support of the Ninth Princess not only made him lose face and apologize, but also cheated him of a few thousand spirit stones, the general felt extremely aggrieved.
Yesterday, that damned brat had the support of the Ninth Princess, so he didn't dare to casually kill him, lest the Ninth Princess find out and cause trouble for him.
The city guard had already made up his mind that when that damn brat left the city, he would skin him alive to vent the hatred in his heart.
Anyone who dared to cheat him would have to pay the price!
For the past two days, the city guard commander had been thinking about this matter. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He really wished he could see that damn brat right away.
At that moment, a handsome young man, accompanied by an old man, walked towards the city gate calmly.
When a soldier who was guarding the city saw the young man's face, his eyes lit up. He hurriedly went to the general and reported:
"Commander, the brat who humiliated you yesterday is about to leave the city. "
"What? That damnable brat, he finally came out! He really made me wait!"
The city guard general's expression was overjoyed. A fierce light shot out from his eyes as he shouted at the surrounding soldiers:
"Brothers, attack immediately! Stop that brat!
Today, I will definitely kill him! I will let that bastard know that my spirit stones are not that easy to earn!"
"Understood!"
A group of armored soldiers responded in unison. Soon, they surrounded Zhang Lingfeng and Qin Zhong, who had arrived at the city gates.
"A group of dog slaves, what do you want?"
Before Zhang Lingfeng could say anything, Qin Zhong, who was standing beside him, had his face darkened as he shouted.
"Old man, you are tired of living. How dare you scold us dog slaves? You are courting death!"
A sturdy soldier heard Qin Zhong's shout and immediately became furious. He raised the long blade in his hand and slashed at Qin Zhong.
This soldier was at the First Level of Soul Transforming Stage. Because Qin Zhong had concealed his Qi, he didn't know that it was Qin Zhong. It was Life and Death Stage Martial Cultivator.
"What a reckless fool!"
Qin Zhong saw that the soldier dared to make the first move, and his expression became even more dissatisfied. He casually threw out a palm strike.
"Boom!"
"Ah!"
As a Life and Death Stage warrior, Qin Zhong's strength was terrifying.
Even though it was just a casual strike, it sent the soldier flying, causing him to scream like a pig being slaughtered. He was seriously injured.
This was also because Qin Zhong knew that the other party was a member of the royal family, so he showed mercy on purpose.
If not, with his Life and Death Stage cultivation, even if he blew a breath, he could easily kill that little soldier.
Seeing Qin Zhong's attack, the surrounding soldiers were shocked and didn't dare to attack.
At this moment. . . The general who was guarding the city also rushed over.
Seeing one of his subordinates heavily injured, the expression of the general instantly became extremely ugly.
He didn't see Qin Zhong attack just now, so he didn't know the exact details of Qin Zhong's strength, so he naturally didn't have any fear in his heart.
"I was wondering why these soldiers surrounded the two of us. So it's because of you, bastard. You said you stopped us, what do you want to do?"
Zhang Lingfeng saw the city guard and immediately thought of what had happened when he entered the city yesterday. His eyes flashed and he asked with a smile that was not a smile.
Qin Zhong, who was standing next to him, was a Life and Death Stage warrior and the commander of the First Prince's guards. He must have an extraordinary status in the Imperial Family.
But now, these bastards still wanted to cause trouble for him. This was simply asking for humiliation.
"Damned brat! Yesterday, you relied on the Ninth Princess to stand out and humiliate me. Today, I'll make sure you suffer the consequences!"
As Zhang Lingfeng was thinking, the general who was guarding the city stared at Zhang Lingfeng with hatred. He gritted his teeth and threatened him.
