Eternal Heavenly Emperor

"I don't know what nonsense you're talking about, the traitor was found long ago, it was Cao Yang!" Kong Pengfei pointed at Cao Yang.

Chu Hao smiled slightly and said, "This kind of divisive strategy can only fool idiots, but your acting is not bad, taking the opportunity to make a move and leaving no time for others to think!"

Jin Yudi's face immediately turned angry, the 'idiot' clearly referred to him! The audacity of this kid, to insult him to his face!

"You are clearly also a spy for the bandits!" Kong Pengfei accused vehemently.

"It's you!" Luo Zixian suddenly screamed. She had finally recognized Chu Hao from his back. The thought that this guy had once seen her chest made her so angry she wanted to kill someone on the spot!

"So you really are a bandit!" Jin Yudi, misunderstanding, thought Luo Zixian had recognized Chu Hao as having the identity of a bandit. Thinking back to how he had almost believed Chu Hao just now, he burst into rage.

He was very talented in martial arts, or else he wouldn't have been among the top ten experts of Poplar Academy, but after all, he was young, his temperament not firm, easily swayed by emotions.

"Court death!" He raised his long sword and stabbed swiftly at Chu Hao.

This guy indeed had substantial strength. From the sharp sound of the wind generated, his power should be around twenty thousand catties!

Second Tier Great Mahayana realm!

Chu Hao moved his feet, casually dodging the opponent's attack entirely, and indifferently said, "Calling you stupid really wasn't wrong."

"Damn it, still daring to speak rudely!" Jin Yudi was furious and swung his long sword even faster.

"Get out of the way!" Luo Zixian suddenly charged forward, kicking Jin Yudi with a foot that landed with a thump, throwing him off unexpectedly.

Whoosh, Luo Zixian also thrust with her sword, her sword wind fierce, not weaker than Jin Yudi's.

Chu Hao had seen her exchanging blows with Fu Xue before, but back then his strength was too weak, nor had he seen martial artists of the Great Mahayana realm in combat, so he simply thought that both Luo Zixian and Fu Xue were just at the Fourth or Fifth Tier Middle Mahayana realm.

But now he realized, Luo Zixian had long stepped into the Great Mahayana realm! Perhaps initially, she was only at the First Tier early stage of Great Mahayana realm. Half a year had passed, and her cultivation had undoubtedly improved greatly.

However, a Second Tier Great Mahayana realm was not a threat to him now, not even worthy to be called an opponent!

He had indeed been afraid of being recognized before, but now that he was recognized, he simply did not care. He smiled and said, "Senior Sister Luo, the situation is special now, can we eliminate the bandits first before settling other matters?"

"Hahaha, this is hilarious!" The leader of the bandits laughed, "Lao Tzu has robbed so many times, but this is the first time I've seen such a funny scene! Keep fighting, continue!"

Luo Zixian angrily sheathed her sword and then turned to look at the bandit leader, demanding, "I do not slay nameless nobodies under my sword, state your name!"

"Lao Tzu is the Second Stockade Master of Seven Wolf Stockade, 'Left Hand Wild Blade' Miao Pusong!" The bandit leader flourished a knife, sizing up Luo Zixian, and said, "Brothers, we're lucky this time. This chick has big boobs and a round butt, and her legs are so tightly closed, probably still a virgin! Heh, Lao Tzu just happens to lack a wife to press the stockade!"

"Second Boss, you're so mighty; after her, those legs will definitely spread and not close back!" Other bandits laughed lewdly.

"How insolent!" Luo Zixian flew into a rage and charged at Miao Pusong, sword thrusting rapidly.

Miao Pusong swung his blade to block, clang clang clang, sparks flying as weapons clashed.

Chu Hao nodded secretly. The Seven Wolf Stockade had scouts that probed their 'fat sheep's' details before committing the robbery—even if not one hundred percent, they had at least seventy or eighty percent certainty of their opponents. They send their people accordingly.

Although Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi hadn't fully demonstrated their abilities earlier, their levels wouldn't differ too far from each other, and this Second Boss was indeed at the Fourth Tier of the Great Mahayana realm, completely dominating in strength!

Unless Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi had some powerful trump cards, this battle was difficult!

Of course, that was excluding him. His strength was too far beyond what others could estimate.

"Hahahaha, girl, just obediently come back with Lao Tzu to be the wife and head the stockade!" Miao Pusong laughed loudly, seeing this 'deal' as naturally something he could handle easily since he had clearly grasped the opponents' details, capable of winning even if he was alone against both Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi.

As for the others? Middle Mahayana realm counted for nothing!

Luo Zixian didn't respond, just thrust her sword repeatedly. Her mastery in swordsmanship was remarkably high, and with one thrust she could produce nineteen sword blossoms, improved further than half a year ago.

"Junior sister, I'll help you!" Jin Yudi also thrust forward with his sword, the two of them jointly battling Miao Pusong.

"Men, go kill the rest, and leave none!" Miao Pusong stood with his blade, not losing in pose, and shouted to his subordinates.

"Yes, Second Boss!" Other bandits charged towards Chu Hao and his group.

"Haha!" Kong Pengfei finally showed his true colors, wielding two axes and charging at Cao Yang.

Cao Yang, now realizing that Kong Pengfei was the real traitor, couldn't contain his fury. The hypocrite had almost got him killed by Jin Yudi, and he bellowed angrily, thrusting his sword to meet the attack.

The Herbalists could only huddle and wail, praying that Chu Hao and the other guards could perform their duties and save their lives.

"After watching a great show, it's time to end this!" Chu Hao whistled sharply, and Flying Fire immediately sprang into action, like a meteor, and with a boom, it pounced on Kong Pengfei.

—Fifth Tier Great Mahayana realm, an absolute crush against Kong Pengfei, who was of the Fourth Tier Middle Mahayana realm.

Plop!

Cao Yang's sword fell and pierced through Kong Pengfei's heart. Only then did he look at Flying Fire with eyes filled with incredulity! He and Kong Pengfei were matched in strength, yet this leopard had incapacitated Kong Pengfei with a single strike; the disparity was too great, wasn't it?

Flying Fire roared and pounced again. Snap, snap, snap, snap—it moved like lightning, its claws rapidly striking with each hit delivering the force of several tens of thousands of pounds. Ordinary bandits stood no chance, either being knocked unconscious with a lighter blow or even killed outright with a heavier one.

In just a minute or two, all the bandits were annihilated, except for Miao Pusong who was still fiercely fighting.

The turn of events was too sudden!

Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi, being at a disadvantage, focused all their attention on defense and did not notice the change in the situation. But Miao Pusong, having the leisure to look around, was incredibly surprised.

Whoosh!

He swung a ferocious slash, forcing Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi back and temporarily halted his attacks.

Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi were both gasping for breath; the opponent was too strong, putting immense pressure on them. The brief minutes of battle had greatly depleted their strength. They hadn't even recovered when they noticed their opponent had suddenly stopped. Why had Miao Pusong halted his attacks?

"Hahahaha, a bandit is but a bandit, all bluster and no substance!" Jin Yudi arrogantly said, thinking Miao Pusong had stopped because he feared the combined might of Luo Zixian and him, which suddenly boosted his confidence to the fullest.

But to his astonishment, Miao Pusong didn't even bother to give him a proper look, instead focusing solely on the juvenile Fire Cloud Leopard.

Feeling both embarrassed and angry, he couldn't believe that he, the sixth top expert of Poplar Academy, was being ignored!

Ignored!

"Miao Pusong, what is the meaning of this!" Jin Yudi shouted harshly, completely oblivious to the fact that other than Miao Pusong, all the bandits were already corpses.

Miao Pusong did not respond, his gaze fixed on Flying Fire, filled with disbelief.

As the Seven Wolf Stockade often "conducted business" in Blackwood Forest, he was aware of the presence of a Fire Cloud Leopard, the tyrant of this area! However, the strongest ferocious beasts of Blackwood Forest were merely fifth-tier Middle Mahayana realm, and the Fire Cloud Leopard could not possibly exceed that!

For the Seven Wolf Stockade, the Fire Cloud Leopard was not a threat, since both the Big Stockade Leader and the Second Stockade Master were Great Mahayana realm experts! Although they could not kill the incredibly swift Fire Cloud Leopard, there was a tacit agreement not to conflict with each other.

Yet this juvenile leopard had swept away his men in a few moves; how could this possibly be a fifth-tier Middle Mahayana realm! Besides, this Fire Cloud Leopard was not even fully grown!

If it were just that, he wouldn't be particularly concerned, given that he himself was a fourth-tier Great Mahayana realm. The problem was, he was just managing to suppress Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi alone, but facing another second or even third-tier Great Mahayana realm ferocious beast as an opponent would possibly put him at a disadvantage!

The Seven Wolf Stockade never engaged in battles they weren't certain of winning!

"Is this your Beast Pet?" Miao Pusong turned his gaze towards Chu Hao.

"Indeed!" Chu Hao nodded.

"Sir, here is a silver note of a thousand taels. Take your Beast Pet and leave this place, how about that?" Miao Pusong proposed, actually pulling out a silver note.

Upon hearing this, Cao Yang and Shi Huan tensed up. They knew well that the reason they were still alive was entirely due to Chu Hao's Beast Pet! If Chu Hao were to leave now, Miao Pusong alone could kill them all!

Chu Hao gave a slight smile and said, "How about you take me to the Seven Wolf Stockade, and I flatten your stockade, ensuring you can no longer harm anyone ever again, how about that?"

Miao Pusong's face immediately darkened as he replied, "Boy, I'm not scared of you—"

"Then stop your incessant whining, you're not surnamed Tang!" Chu Hao interrupted him.

"Damn it!" Miao Pusong's eyes narrowed, but internally he wondered whether he should retreat. The Seven Wolf Stockade never engaged in battles they weren't sure of winning!

Chu Hao walked towards Miao Pusong and said, "Don't even think about escaping, you don't have that chance!"

"How dare you be so presumptuous in front of Lao Tzu!" Miao Pusong was not afraid of Chu Hao, never thinking a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy could pose a threat to him!

Chu Hao drew his sword, smiled and said, "If you can withstand my three moves, you win!"

"Nonsense!" Miao Pusong roared and with a fierce leap, lunged at Chu Hao.

Whoosh!

His great sword swung, creating a piercing strange noise.

Chu Hao struck with his sword, his hand quivering, instantly creating 30 sword blooms, like a myriad of flowers blossoming all at once, confronting Miao Pusong head-on.

Luo Zixian and Jin Yudi both showed disbelief. As swordsmen themselves, they knew well how much strength it took to produce 30 sword blooms!

This guy was even stronger than them!
