Chapter 129: Chapter 129

Sword Obsession could feel that the power of the Palm Seal was extraordinary, a threat that could endanger him. The strength of this individual was terrifying and definitely a formidable enemy.

At the same time, the onlookers at the scene felt an even stronger sensation. Although the Palm Seal wasn't aimed at them, just the residual force that emanated from it made them sense a lethal threat—as if even a mere ripple from the Palm Seal could blast them to smithereens.

"How terrifying the force is." On the arena, Zhao Letian's expression also turned very ugly; the power of this Palm Seal was far stronger than that of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect's expert. The person arriving this time was undoubtedly an extremely fearsome powerhouse.

"The General has arrived." In the City Lord Mansion's camp, two powerhouses from War King City smiled. With the General gracing us with his presence, who would dare to disobey?

"Very good, Sword Obsession, Zhao Letian, this old man wants you to have no place for burial." Shentu Old Ancestor clutched his fists tightly, extremely agitated—he had been biding his time in silence, just waiting for this General, and now it seemed that General's strength hadn't disappointed him, quite formidable indeed, surely eradicating Sword Obsession would pose no problem.

Despite perceiving the strength of the newcomer, Sword Obsession's unyielding spirit wouldn't allow him to concede easily. With a cold snort, he unleashed a penetrative sword strike, soaring up and aiming at the enormous Palm Seal.

The wild energy dispersed. Sword Obsession's penetrative sword move, though exquisitely unparalleled, was directly crushed by the overwhelming absolute force of the huge Palm Seal and continued to bear down on Sword Obsession.

"Letian, this person is at the third rank of Sect Martial Realm, his power is terrifying. Even your master is no match for him. This place is not safe to linger, I will hold them off later, you look for an opportunity to leave."

Watching the Palm Seal closing in, Sword Obsession's brows slightly furrowed, and he sent a serious Divine Thought message to Zhao Letian. Then, he slashed out another sword strike, just managing to dissipate the greatly weakened Palm Seal, but the violent shockwave still sent him flying back more than ten zhang.

At the same time, a middle-aged man with a majestic look and wearing a bronze armor suddenly descended from the clouds, emanating an aura of terror and bloodlust that chilled people to their bones, evidently a man accustomed to killing, his hands stained with endless blood.

"Master, if we must go, we go together. I have set up a Transmission Array in the Zhao Family compound, as long as we can get there, we can escape safely," Zhao Letian spoke with a solemn voice. He could feel his master's anxiety; obviously, the adversary's power was too frightening. If his master stayed behind, there would be a risk of death, and he couldn't afford for his master to die for him.

"Transmission Array? Good. I will find an opportunity to take you away," Sword Obsession brightened at the news, although even if he stayed behind to cover the retreat, he was confident in escaping. Nevertheless, if he could leave without taking risks, he didn't want to gamble with his life.

"Master, if possible, can you take Liu Wei and Luo Yao with us?" Zhao Letian asked. Liu Wei and Luo Yao were close to him; if left behind, the four great families would surely not spare them.

"Take them with us? That's a bit tricky, but your master will try his best," Sword Obsession responded.

"Thank you, Master," Zhao Letian said. Thank you for reading. This was brought to you by *.

"Hail to the General!"

Just at this moment, the two powerhouses from War King City within the City Lord Mansion's camp stood up and saluted the arriving strongman.

"Shentu Wenyuan, on behalf of everyone from Qingzhou City, pays respects to Lord General," Shentu Old Ancestor bowed deeply in salute. Although he was of the same Sect Martial Realm, he was nothing compared to the General, and he didn't dare to be disrespectful.

"Where is Yuanbao?" Lord General nodded slightly and inquired. Shentu Yuanbao was a subordinate he valued highly and intended to cultivate well.

"Reporting to the General, Yuanbao was killed by that kid named Zhao Letian," a strong man from War King City replied.

"How could someone with merely the second level of True Martial Realm have the strength to kill Yuanbao?" The General's gaze swept across the crowd, and upon spotting Shentu Yuanbao's corpse on the arena floor below, his brow furrowed. Then, following the directions of the strong man from War King City, he looked towards Zhao Letian, a look of surprise appearing in his eyes.

"Reporting to the General, this person is the Demon Level genius of Galaxy Sect, capable of fighting beyond his level with considerable strength," another strong man from War King City answered.

"Galaxy Sect? A Demon Level genius? Hmph, for killing my subordinate, even if you were a peerless genius, you must pay with your life." The General's face darkened, his gaze on Zhao Letian turned icy cold.

Hearing this, many people in the crowd were overjoyed, finally someone could deal with Zhao Letian for them.

"Want to kill my disciple? Ask Sword Obsession first," declared Sword Obsession fearlessly, stepping in front of Zhao Letian.

"You? A strong warrior, but still not a match for me. If you are willing to follow me and join the military in War King City, I can spare your life; otherwise, there will be no mercy," the General glanced at Sword Obsession and said indifferently.

"Follow you to join the army? Are you trying to conscript forcibly? According to the laws of Dajin Country, the military is prohibited from conscripting soldiers by force. Aren't you afraid of military punishment?" Sword Obsession frowned, speaking somewhat unexpectedly.

"That's under normal circumstances. But now, with the border situation critical, Lord War King himself has ordered me to recruit soldiers from outside. Not just Qingzhou City, but surrounding cities and all the major sects, must send people to join the army," said the General.

"This is bad. They are really trying to conscript people. The border battlefield is like a meat grinder; if you go, it's almost certain death. Let's hurry up and leave."

As soon as the General finished speaking, the scene erupted into chaos. Many people no longer cared for the spectacle and turned to leave, rushing to get away from Qingzhou City to avoid conscription. Those above the True Martial Realm rose into the air, preparing to scatter and flee.

But just then, a huge Array Formation Light Screen suddenly rose above Qingzhou City, enveloping the entire city. Anyone who touched the light screen was immediately repelled by a powerful force, and no one could get out.

"Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! ..."

Immediately following, troops of armored soldiers emanating a fierce aura poured in from outside the city, surrounding the people at the scene.

"Whoever dares to run away will be considered as deserting in the face of the enemy, and will be killed without mercy," the General said in a heavy tone.

The armored soldiers shouted in unison, the thunderous voices filling the sky, and the dense murderous aura made some of the more timid people weak at the knees.

However, there were still some brave individuals not intimidated. In order not to be conscripted, they directly attacked the soldiers and furiously bombarded the Array Formation Light Screen blocking their escape.

"Sword of Subtlety, Slash!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, Sword Obsession suddenly launched a sword beam towards the General and in a flash, transformed into an astonishingly fast sword light, taking Zhao Letian, Liu Wei, and Luo Yao with him, quickly heading towards the Zhao Family.
