Destined Martial God

"Cough!"    

Faced with Yu Haoran's promise to not pursue the matter further, a trace of emotion flashed past the Hu expert's eyes. Just as he was about to explain the reason why he appeared in Fengrun City, a cough sounded from the crowd.    

Even though the sounds of coughing from the crowd were very faint, the man surnamed Hu remained silent.    

"Get the hell out here!"    

Maybe the person who made the sound thought that he had done it very stealthily, and would not be discovered by Yu Haoran.    

However, the Tower Spirit who had already set up his divine sense to control the entire crowd had already locked onto the owner of the voice at the first possible moment.    

After receiving the Tower Spirit's reminder, Yu Haoran shouted out explosively. At the same time, his soul power swiftly condensed into a giant palm, and directly grabbed onto the middle of the crowd. A dignified, white-haired old man that seemed to be around sixty years old, wore a long white robe.    

"Clear Wind Chop!"    

Seeing the huge palm reaching towards him, the white-haired old man's expression changed, at the same time, he immediately took out a high grade Emperor's Realm Life Sword, and quickly unleashed a peak grade Heaven Ranked Sword Technique.    

The white-haired old man was already at the peak of the seventh stage of the Martial Emperor.    

However, in the face of the huge palm, the sharp sword Qi was not even able to withstand a single blow. The huge palm shattered the sword Qi while grabbing the white-haired old man.    

As the white-haired old man was dragged back to the city wall, the pure soul power contained in the giant palm swiftly sealed his dantian and soul.    

"Someone from the Hollow Jade Temple!"    

After sealing the opponent's dantian and soul, and understanding the characteristics of their cultivation, Yu Haoran's eyes flashed with a sharp killing intent, and his expression darkened as he described their origins.    

"Yu Haoran, next, I will use a secret technique that can corrode the soul and weaken the realm of the old guy's soul."    

After hearing Yu Haoran point out that the white-haired old man was a Martial Emperor Ranker from the Hollow Jade Temple, the Tower Spirit suddenly remembered that when the Divine Black Tortoise mentioned that the Blue Sky Consciousness had identified the master of the Heavenly Palace, Ji Xing, who could open and end the Immeasurable Calamity, it immediately realised that the reason why more than a thousand experts had gathered outside the Fengrun City, might very possibly have something to do with the fake Child of Destiny Ji Xing.    

Therefore, he wanted to let Yu Haoran use the secret method of Soulsearch to verify if his guess was right.    

"Sure!" Yu Haoran, who had also realized the problem, immediately nodded in agreement.    

When the white-haired old man's soul was weakened to the Martial Saint realm, Yu Haoran immediately reached out and pressed his hand on his head, then used the secret soul search method of the Devil Dao to begin to look through the other party's memories.    

Perhaps it was because Ji Xing was too self-confident, but the white-haired old man's soul did not prohibit it, allowing him to easily read through the experiences of the other party.    

"Yu Haoran, how is it?" After Yu Haoran smashed apart the white-haired old man's head, the Tower Spirit hurriedly asked.    

"Tower Spirit, these people have been coerced into coming to the Fengrun City by the Heavenly Palace's Master Ji Xing with only one goal in mind, and that is to kill Yu Haoran and take away my ginseng fruit and Protocosmic spirit-treasure, as well as destroy the Prince Consort's residence that can float in the sky." Looking at the over a thousand experts gathered outside the city, Yu Haoran replied as the corner of his mouth raised slightly.    

The white-haired old man whom he had just killed was not only a powerful Elder of Hollow Jade Temple, he was also the person in charge of this operation.    

Through the memories he had searched, he found out that Divine Black Tortoise who had left the Zhen Yuan Graveyard had personally gone to Hollow Jade Temple. Other than concealing her identity as a Son of Heaven and possessing the power to enter the War God Realm, he had told Ji Xing everything else.    

Yu Haoran knew clearly in his heart that the Divine Black Tortoise's method was seemingly to curry favor with Ji Xing, but in reality, it was trying to use the ginseng fruit's and Innate Spirit Treasure's temptation to force Ji Xing to reveal his identity as the Child of Fate.    

Afterwards, he would use the special characteristic of the Child of Destiny to lure some powerhouses hidden in the darkness and jump out. He hoped to use this method to divert the attention of the world, allowing him to have more time and a safer environment to increase his cultivation level and strength.    

Regarding the Divine Black Tortoise's intentions, Yu Haoran kept it in mind.    

"Yu Haoran, what do you plan to do next?"    

Different from Yu Haoran's relaxed state of mind, Tower Spirit felt a little heavy when he saw that the reason for the thousand strong warriors gathering outside the city was just as he had predicted.    

Because he knew that since Ji Xing had revealed his identity as a Son of Heaven, he must have obtained the consent of the heavens.    

In other words, the three Zhi Zun warriors who were hiding in the darkness would gradually interfere with the conflict in the Profound Sky Continent.    

For Yu Haoran, who had not truly matured yet, who had yet to find the Destiny Stone, this was not a very good thing.    

"Alchemy!"    

Not only did Yu Haoran not detect the heavy emotions in the Tower Spirit, but he also used his spiritual will to notify Qin Lingfei, Jian Wuhen, Wu Zhengjun and Fang Man to come here. At the same time, he ordered Lan Rong to open the defensive and offensive formations around the Fengrun City, and only then did he reply to the Tower Spirit's interrogation.    

"That's fine too!"    

Amongst the thousands of strong warriors gathered outside the city, the ones with the highest cultivation were only at the peak of the seventh stage of the Martial Emperor. With the cultivation level and strength of Qin Lingfei and the others, as well as the methods they knew, they could not only guarantee their own safety against their enemies, but also increase their cultivation and strength through the process of fighting against them.    

When Qin Lingfei and the other three arrived at the city wall, Lan Rong and the rest of the generals entered the offensive array.    

After getting everyone's consent, Yu Haoran looked at the thousands of experts outside the city again, and his gaze finally stopped at the expert surnamed Hu.    

"Senior, as long as you leave Fengrun City immediately, this junior's guarantee of forgiveness will still be valid."    

He was not the least bit afraid of the Hollow Jade Temple's power and immediately took action to kill the Hollow Jade Temple's Martial Emperor Elder. The expert surnamed Hu could already guess what the bold Yu Haoran wanted to do next.    

Although there were a lot of people on his side, but from the strength that Yu Haoran had displayed just now, the Hu Clan Ranker knew that in the face of absolute strength, the advantage of numbers was completely useless.    

Therefore, facing Yu Haoran's repeated care, the Hu expert did not continue to force himself. After clasping his fists in gratitude, he directly soared into the sky and left the Fengrun City.    

However, at the instant he rose into the air, a voice filled with threat sounded out, causing the expert surnamed Hu to forcefully stop in midair.    

"Hu Qingyang, if you dare to run away on your own, your Hu family will be the first to be exterminated before the Aeon Span begins."    

"Old man, no one knows whether or not the Hu family will be exterminated in the future, but right now, the only thing I can confirm is that you won't be able to see that day."    

His gaze turned from Spirit Master Hu who was floating in the air to a white-haired old man who was only at the peak of the first stage of Martial Emperor.
