  She sat down and concealed her guilt: "Fantasy City is not that big, only one auction house is enough. If De Bao Zhai had enough strength, he would have already attacked my Zaocang. "

  An Zheng shrugged his shoulders: "It has nothing to do with me, I'm going."

  "Stop!"

  Zhen Zhuangbi swept in front of An Zheng to block the back door: "You took the thing, and you think you can just casually walk away?"

  Zhuang Feifei also said, "Master An, that fish scale is still on you."

  An Zheng had never intended to provoke anyone, whether it was the Old Hunters or the Zaocang. Even if the scales were related to some ancient legend, in An Zheng's opinion, it was just nonsense. He knew Da Xi very well, and he also knew the Da Xi royal family very well. He did not believe in the legends of the Holy Fish, nor did he believe that the fish scales could give people any guidance.

  "I didn't intend to take it with me."

  An Zheng removed the Bronze Bell from good old man's neck before handing it over to Du Shoushou.

  He took a step forward and stretched out his hand. The Bronze Bell was in his hand as he said, "Yes, you guys can take it."

  Zhuang Feifei said somewhat helplessly: "Master An, that doesn't make sense. The thing is the Old Hunters's, and I just got rid of De Bao Zai in order to make a deal with the Old Hunters, isn't it a little too much for you to just take it away like that? "

  An Zheng lowered his head to look at his own hands and laughed: "Originally, when I do things, I like to reason with others. Even if others don't listen to my logic, I want to make it clear. But right now, all I can do is see how I feel. Originally, I wasn't in the mood to get involved with your matters. However, since you've made me unhappy, and I'm unhappy, I can't do things appropriately. "

  He moved a chair over and sat down. "Whoever wants it, come and get it."

  Zhen Zhuangbi took a step forward, then stopped. He went to Qiu Changchen several times to borrow the academy's treasure, but Qiu Changchen refused to give it to him. He was not confident in blocking the Bronze Bell's attack. After all, an expert with Captive Stage like the Ghost Hand Old Nine was unable to block one of the Bronze Bell's attacks.

  Gu Man seemed to be very angry as well, and wanted to walk forward, but was stopped by Gu Qianye. For some reason, the way Gu Qianye looked at An Zheng changed.

  Gu Man seemed to have used the language unique to Old Hunters to converse with Gu Qianye, and there were some arguments between them, but in the end, he still complied with Gu Qianye's words. He stood there without moving, and only looked at An Zheng with ice-cold eyes.

  "No one took it?"

  An Zheng knocked the bell on the table a few times, then helplessly spread his hands: "That scale drilled into the table a few times by itself, and I didn't take it away. Now that it's inside, I can't take it out. How about this, when I take it out, and send someone back to deliver it to you? "

  Just as Zhuang Feifei was about to speak, she suddenly stood up and said, "Okay."

  The twelve or thirteen year old girl only said one word before she stood up and walked out.

  Zhuang Feifei was startled: "What do you mean?"

  Gu Qianye walked to An Zheng's side: "The thing is mine, you still haven't started the trade with me, so anything you say doesn't count. I said that it meant good, but you don't understand? "

  The killing intent in Zhuang Feifei's eyes became stronger and stronger, all the experts of Zaocang started to gather here.

  With a 'bang' sound, Gu Man poked the hunting trident onto the ground. "My master can say whatever you want. If you want to make a move, let's see if you can kill all the Old Hunters Warriors outside in one breath! If we don't just kill you, then we'll flatten this place to the ground. "

  Zhuang Feifei's expression kept changing. She was confident that she could get rid of De Bao Zhai, but she wasn't confident that she could win the battle in front of her. Although Gu Man seemed carefree and crude, his strength really couldn't be underestimated. The little girl was the patriarch of the Old Hunters. Since Gu Man was her bodyguard, he would definitely not be an ordinary person. Old Hunters had a very long history, many of them were experts that could shake the Northern Frontier.

  Moreover, the beast transformations of the Old Hunters soldiers were extremely terrifying.

  At that time, the patriarch of the Old Hunters felt that the Mount Cang Man was too tired and planned to lead his clansmen out to live on the plains, so he joined the Youguo. At that time, the Youguo was the strongest of the sixteen kingdoms, but no one had thought that they would be defeated by the alliance between the State of Yan and the hegemons in a war. The Yan Army had almost slaughtered their way into the Youguo's capital. If not for the combined forces of Yongguo and Zhui, which sneaked an ambush from behind the Yan Army, the Youguo would have been almost annihilated.

  After this battle, the Old Hunters suffered heavy losses. A hundred thousand warriors left the mountain, and less than five thousand returned home. After several decades of rest, Old Hunters seemed to have recovered some of his strength, but it was still incomparable to his peak condition.

  However, the good battles of the Old Hunters Warriors were still frightening to this day. The only time Tie Liuhuo, the most elite in the State of Yan, had not won was when he had been stopped by the seven thousand beast army of the Old Hunters during his battle with the Old Hunters. However, that time, Tie Liuhuo used three thousand people to fight against the seven thousand beast army, and in the end, Tie Liuhuo's army was completely wiped out, leaving behind only four people in the beast army.

  From then on, the State of Yan entered a period of weakness that lasted for dozens of years. It was only until six years ago when the great general Fang Zhiji rebuilt Tie Liuhuo that the State of Yan made the surrounding nations feel fear once more.

  An Zheng glanced at Zhuang Feifei: "First Mr doesn't seem to be satisfied? Heavenly Awakening Sect welcomes you here at all times, if there's anything you can't let go of, come and find me. "

  An Zheng knew what he had now. If not for the Bronze Bell's endless power, with his current strength at the third stage of the Primordial Profound Realm, he would have been torn to shreds long ago. The killing intent in Zhuang Feifei's eyes was so thick that it seemed to be able to cut people.

  "Hahahaha."

  Zhuang Feifei suddenly laughed loudly. "What did Master An say? Since Master An has to leave first, I won't send you off."

  An Zheng acknowledged, then pointed to the bronze coffin: "Don't open it well."

  Zhuang Feifei's eyes were: "Why?"

  An Zheng did not reply. He pointed to a corner of the coffin and then left.

  After he left the back door, he pulled Du Shoushou along: "Let's go, something big is going to happen here."

  Du Shoushou hugged the good old man in a daze: "What do you mean?"

  An Zheng did not reply, and quickened his pace. When he turned his head, he saw that Gu Qianye and a dozen or so warriors of the Old Hunters were following behind him, maintaining that distance from him.

  "What is going on?"

  Du Shoushou asked as he walked.

  However, An Zheng walked faster and faster, and in the end, pulled Du Shoushou along as he sprinted.

  Not only him, even Gao Sanduo had long ago brought his men and galloped away.

  Not long after they left the Zaocang, a howl suddenly came from inside the place, like the wailing of ghosts and the howling of wolves.

  At that time, An Zheng and the others had already gone far away. However, later on, they heard that there were still a lot of corpses that flew out, all of them with broken limbs. When An Zheng turned back to look, all he saw was a fierce beam of light shooting straight into the sky.

  Returning to the Heavenly Enlightenment Martial Academy, An Zheng immediately set up a platform, and then placed the Bronze Bell atop it properly. Everyone was puzzled by his strange action.

  "Now you can say it, there are no outsiders."

  Du Shoushou pu
lled An Zheng and asked what was going on, but when he turned his head, he saw that Gu Qianye and a dozen or so warriors of the Old Hunters were also standing there looking at them.

  "That's right, I'm not an outsider either."

  Gu Qianye turned around and said to Gu Man and the others, "Go and find a place to stay yourself. "Don't bother others with cooking, pack up and prepare dinner."

  An Zheng looked at Gu Qianye: "This doesn't seem to be your territory."

  Gu Qianye raised his eyebrows and laughed: "But you took my things, I have to look after you, otherwise what will happen if you run away? Besides... had come out, who knew how many people had died. You set up a Exorcist Array and even placed such a powerful magic tool. Since this place is safe, I won't leave. "

  An Zheng frowned: "Aren't you afraid something will happen to your people?"

  Gu Qianye shook her head: "No, my clan has a great shaman, Gu Sha does not dare to barge in casually."

  Du Shoushou did not mind staying a few more people, and continued to ask An Zheng what was going on.

  An Zheng sighed: "There's something fishy about that bronze coffin. It's sealed so tightly, how is it a burial, it's clearly a suppression. This thing was buried deep within a certain channel in Mount Cang Man. There should be another thing being suppressed, but after the mountain torrent, the thing that was suppressed was swept away. Originally, the bronze coffin was very sturdy, if not for … If Zhuang Feifei had not sent someone to destroy the De Bao Hall, and if the person that came back had blood Qi on him, the person who happened to be standing next to the bronze coffin would have blood dripping onto the bronze coffin, and nothing would have happened to him. Now that Gu Sha is stained with blood and Qi, I am afraid he is not someone to be trifled with. "

  Gu Qianye clapped her hands, "I didn't think a little kid like you would actually understand so much. That Gu Sha was buried under the Flowing Sand River for at least a thousand years. However, since Shan Hong had charged away the copper ox and the people from Zaocang did not know the severity of the situation, it would be strange if the bronze cow-and-bronze coffin were to remain untouched. "

  "Is the bronze ox in the Zaocang?"

  An Zheng asked.

  Gu Qianye nodded his head: "Of course I am, if not, do you think that Zhuang Feifei would dare to casually accept it? However, she did not know how to use the Bronze Cow, so even if she wanted it, it would be of no use. "

  Right at this moment, An Zheng saw a bloodied Zhen Zhuangbi stagger back, his left arm had already disappeared without a trace. As if he had felt An Zheng's gaze, he turned around and gave him a fierce look, before stumbling into the academy.

  Then, Gu Sha, who was jumping around in a daze, landed outside the Academy. He looked towards An Zheng and the others, and saw a green light flash on the Bronze Bell. Soon after, a ray of light flew out from the academy and stabbed into the main entrance with a bang. After Gu Sha saw that thing, he turned around and jumped into the distance. An Zheng saw that it was a large lance.

  It was two meters four and three feet long with a long lance.

  The light shot out in all directions.

  On the second floor of the academy stood Qiu Changchen with his hands behind his back.

  Chapter 61 - Yes

  Du Shoushou was obviously shocked when he saw Gu Sha. No matter what, people had a heart full of fear towards zombies. Du Shoushou had never seen a zombie before, and the moment he jumped in front of the Martial Academy gate, he almost collapsed. In the end, Gu Sha was scared away by the Bronze Bell before he even entered the door. At the entrance of the academy, he was also intimidated by Qiu Changchen's lance.

  "Why didn't you kill him?"

  Du Shoushou asked.

  Just as An Zheng was about to explain, Gu Qianye said haughtily with her hands behind her back: "I had thought that I had met a group of geniuses. What Gu Sha was actually afraid of was not his own strength, it was only her steel tendons and bones. The most terrifying thing about him was the corpse poison, once she killed them casually, the corpse poison would spread, and at that time, Fantasy City would definitely have corpses scattered all over the ground. And then, countless zombies came down from the mountains and slaughtered one town after another. "

  Du Shoushou shivered: "Then there's no way to take care of him?"

  Gu Qianye said: "There is, but it's too dangerous. Everyone in the Fantasy City was sweeping snow from their own doorstep, who would take the risk to meddle in such matters? That Gu Sha was not strong, but at the very least, he had strength comparable to the peak of the Sumeru Stage.

  Seeing An Zheng jumping up onto the wall, Du Shoushou could not help but shout, "Don't go, that thing is too dangerous."

  An Zheng said: "The ordinary citizens of Fantasy City are unable to stop Gu Sha."

  Du Shoushou: "But you still won't be able to block it. If the Bronze Bell can kill him, how can you deal with the corpse poison?"

  An Zheng: "Bell, stay behind to protect you. I'll go take a look."

  Du Shoushou had rushed back from Zaocang because he was worried about Qu Liuxi and the rest's safety. After leaving the bell at the Martial Arts Academy, he actually planned to deal with Gu Sha alone.

  "So he's an idiot."

  Gu Qianye muttered.

  Du Shoushou: "Shut up!"

  He also rushed to the top of the wall: "An Zheng, you have to think about it carefully, this is too dangerous."

  An Zheng said: "That thing is dangerous, but it doesn't have much intelligence. It completely relies on an extremely strange perception. He could feel an aura that was stronger than his, so he didn't dare to carelessly approach him. Since it was something without intelligence, no matter how strong it was, it wasn't too scary. I'll follow him first and see what happens. "

  After he finished speaking, An Zheng jumped down from the wall and rushed forward along the main street. Du Shoushou stomped his feet and followed suit.

  Gu Qianye shrugged her shoulders. "Two idiots."

  Gu Man rubbed his forehead. "These two children are worthy of praise."

  Gu Qianye pointed towards the training grounds: "Go cook!"

  Gu Man replied with an 'oh', then led her people over.

  Gu Qianye randomly found a place to sit down and sat down, then saw a beautiful little girl glaring at him.

  "Who are you?"

  she asked.

  Qu Liuxi answered seriously: "Heavenly Awakening Sect, Qu Liuxi."

  Gu Qianye found it interesting. "Why are you staring at me?"

  Qu Liuxi looked into Gu Qianye's eyes. "Sect Master is not an idiot, Du Shoushou is also not an idiot. You are not allowed to talk about the two of them."

  Gu Qianye was startled for a moment, then laughed: "So you like him.

  Qu Liuxi's face reddened. "I'm from the Heavenly Awakening Sect, I can't tolerate you saying bad things about the sect master behind my back."

  Gu Qianye said: "If I like it, I like it. You're eleven or twelve years old? It was the age of the beginning of love. But the person you like is a little interesting. Even I'm beginning to like him. "I was still considering if I should tie him up and make him my wife."

  Qu Liuxi panicked: "You dare!"

  Gu Qianye: "The little girl is getting anxious. It looks like I really like her very much. However, the more others like something, the more I like to snatch it away. "

  Qu Liuxi said: "We do not welcome you here, please leave."

  Gu Qianye: "Alright, when he returns, I'll bring him along."

  The two little girls looked at each other with an imposing manner, but Qu Liuxi was obviously lacking in level. Speaking of which, it was quite funny. Two girls, one was eleven and the other was thirteen. The feelings at this age were only about who was good to me and who was good to me. But because of this, perhaps it was the simplest of emotions. Gu Qianye sat there like a spirit. Qu Liuxi stood there like a warrior.

  Of course, An Zheng didn't know that at this moment, Qu Liuxi was in a confrontation with Gu Qia
nye. His attention was completely focused on Gu Sha, who was in front of him. That thing's movements was stiff, but its speed was exceptionally fast. One year, when they were in Ming Fa Si, Da Xi had caused a drought. Several large rivers had dried up, and a few coffins were revealed. A busybody opened the coffin, wanting to take out a few valuable things, but in the end Gu Sha was released.

  When the people of Ming Fa Si rushed there, there were already four to five villages that had been taken care of, and over a thousand people had already died. Therefore, An Zheng was not unfamiliar with this kind of thing. He knew how to deal with it, but his current strength was indeed a little too weak.

  "There's actually a way to deal with zombies."

  An Zheng said to Du Shoushou as he flew: "The zombie's knees won't bend, so its bounce is entirely relying on the soles of its feet, so its bounce is towards the front, so it's impossible for it to jump very high. If a person who didn't know how to practice wanted to avoid zombies, he would have to climb to a higher place. But this Gu Sha was too strong, like a steel body, a normal house would collapse upon a collision. "Ordinary zombies, after grabbing it, place a piece of wood under his heel and let him tiptoe to the ground. Even if he wasn't tied up, he wouldn't be able to jump."

  Right now, Du Shoushou was convinced that An Zheng was the Inheritor of the Heaven, and did not doubt that An Zheng knew so much all of a sudden.

  "Are you sure you can take care of this guy?"

  "I'm confident that I won't run back to the Martial Arts Academy first."

  "Then why did you chase after him?"

  "This matter... Even if you don't have any confidence, you still have to do it. "

  Du Shoushou was startled for a moment, and suddenly felt that An Zheng was an unparalleled hero. In Du Shoushou's eyes, the peerless hero should be a person of high status. Dressed in iron armor, wearing a red cape and holding onto a spear, he should be charging back and forth in the midst of tens of thousands of troops as if there was no one around. Or perhaps the white robed man could fly on the flying sword for a thousand miles, slaying demons and exterminating devils. The difference between An Zheng and his image of the peerless hero in his heart was just too great. However, Du Shoushou felt that the current An Zheng was that kind of person, just that tall.
