The 3rd strongest
Zhao Jing caused a great disturbance in Yujing, disrupting the eldest princess's coronation ceremony in a manner that was almost humiliating.
At the same time, he launched his most successful propaganda campaign, transforming Yuwen Yi from a powerful villain into a despicable clown.
People may fear the devil, but they will not revere the clown, especially a lewd clown.
The anger of the two can be imagined.
Retaliation will inevitably be fierce.
However, Zhao Jing had already fled.
Before heading to Beijing, he had only a group of loyal followers left.
After leaving the capital, he not only seized the Heavenly Fate Bone, but also acquired a Dao artifact.
Dao artifacts can establish a lineage, gather incense offerings, and pass on academic knowledge, thus becoming the foundation of a top-tier sect.
For Zhao Jing, the most crucial thing is that it can shield him from the Grandmaster's pursuit from afar.
If the founding emperor had not bestowed dragon energy to help the pagoda and its artifacts be upgraded.
So he changed it to a request to block the Grandmaster's long-distance tracking.
This requirement is not difficult.
According to the Taizu Emperor's wish, the two would fight each other to the death, using the Ottoman succession law to determine the strongest emperor.
There's a high chance he'll agree.
This was also Zhao Jing's plan to escape before he went to the capital.
As for Chen Zhong and his group, with the help of Tu Su and the Blood Raven Flying Sedan Chair, they should be able to escape.
During his escape, Zhao Jing contacted Tu Su multiple times.
On the contrary, Tu Su was very worried:
"Your Highness, the chances of escaping and surviving this way are too low."
"Your Highness, shall we wait for you in Jingzhou?"
"Your Highness, I will try to use my Starry Eyes to help you conceal yourself."
"Your Highness, where are you?"
They fled separately, and even Chen Zhong was filled with fear and anxiety.
The people were not worried about their own safety, but rather about what might happen to Zhao Jing.
So every now and then, Tu Su would ask a question.
I was terrified of hearing even the slightest bad news.
Zhao Jing could only try to comfort the other party again and again.
"Tu Su, don't worry."
"It's more dangerous over there. You'd better avoid cities and densely populated areas, and leave no trace."
"If you absolutely must enter the city, it's best to leave in batches or hide in a basement to rest."
Zhao Jing did not go to Jiangnan, but took a different path.
Even if Yuwen Yi sent people to hunt him down, he would never have imagined that Zhao Jing would go to Bashu to set a trap for him.
After all, Lianzhou is more reasonable than Bashu.
Without Liu Chengxi's protection, how could they escape the pursuit?
Therefore, their plan was to intercept Zhao Jing before he arrived in Jiangnan.
A team of expert trackers mobilized to help Gu Changfeng track down the whereabouts of the Blood Raven Flying Sedan Chair.
Even if Tu Su has the Starry Eyes to avoid divination, the escape of the group carrying the sedan chair will inevitably leave traces.
"The footprints here are very light, they were even specially treated with internal energy."
"But they moved too fast, which resulted in the cleaning not being thorough enough."
"This must have been carried by nine people, which matches the number of people who fled."
"Chase them! Chase them in this direction!"
These marks stand out conspicuously in the eyes of grandmasters and experts.
The two sides are getting closer.
Tu Su then used his prophetic abilities:
"We can't take this route; the enemy is tracking us."
"Although they cannot use divination, they leave traces."
"Let's go through the forest first, then go around this mountain."
"Yes, Lord Tusu."
Chen Zhong and his companions had tried their best to cover up their tracks, but they never expected to encounter a beautiful young woman on the mountain.
The woman's face appeared blurry.
Chen Zhong and the others were greatly alarmed and tried to move away, but then they heard the woman chuckle softly:
Where is Zhao Jing?
"Should we hide among you, or flee elsewhere?"
"How do you block out a Grandmaster's sudden whim?"
"I am very interested."
Both Chen Zhong and Tu Su were shocked, as if struck by lightning.
Run!
Everyone's hair stood on end.
They set up the Blood Raven Flying Carriage and were about to flee at full speed, no matter how they tried to escape.
The beautiful young woman was right in front of him, yet it felt like they were worlds apart, and worlds apart yet so close.
There is no escape from this terrifying realm.
Grandmaster level expert.
Both Chen Zhong and Ye Ling were innate martial artists, yet they had lost their will to fight.
Tu Su's inner personality fully awakens:
"We cannot defeat them by force!"
"The probability of winning is zero."
"Caused damage: zero."
"Escape from the predicament: zero."
"The only option is to gain favor and expose our potential."
Even a master-level expert can still outwit and kill their opponent.
The probability of becoming a Grandmaster is zero.
Complete zero.
So Zhao Jing heard what Tu Su said:
"Your Highness, we're in trouble."
"What happened?"
"Shh, you can't tell!"
Tu Su immediately covered the Thousand Illusion Pearl, which only made the woman smile gently:
"I see, so they communicate through the Thousand Illusion Pearls."
"Then he must be hiding very far away."
"No one who is not a saint can transmit messages over long distances; only special magical artifacts can do so."
"This explains why you split up and acted separately."
Tu Su's first thought was to destroy the Thousand Illusion Pearl, at least to prevent the person in front of him from using the treasure to track His Highness.
The God of Wealth – Wealth can communicate with the gods!
Countless copper coins attempted to absorb the power of the Thousand Illusion Pearl and erase the connection between the two.
The next second, Tu Su was astonished to find that the copper coins could not get close to the Thousand Illusion Pearl.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she could never reach it.
This is what it means to be so close yet so far.
Tu Su recalled the Grandmasters on the Heavenly Ranking and finally confirmed the identity of the person before him:
"Palace Master of Beichen".
"Exactly."
"Rest assured, I have no intention of creating any karmic ties or harming your lives."
For the third-ranked expert on the Heavenly Ranking, there is simply no possibility of defeating some innate beings.
Before Tu Su, the Palace Master of Beichen Palace only said one sentence:
"no."
"This was given to me by His Highness, and I must return it to him personally."
At this moment, Tu Su's inner personality and the main personality reached an agreement.
The Palace Master of Beichen Palace looked at the stubborn girl before him and simply chuckled:
"With subordinates like these, it's no wonder they can defy fate."
"Don't worry, we're just exchanging ideas."
As the Palace Master of Beichen Palace approached, the pressure on Chen Zhong and the others reached its peak.
"kill!"
Even if the probability is zero, we must still give it our all.
Chen Zhong and his men were already suicide squad members.
Suicide squad members don't consider probability.
They had already put down their sedan chairs and drawn their swords against each other.
The most courageous sword strike in life.
A cold glint appeared, and several sword energies arrived from the sky.
The sword energy seemed to break through this terrifying domain, heading straight for the Palace Master of Beichen Palace.
Then something terrible happened.
The sword energy seemed to strike the phantom, actually piercing through the Palace Master of Beichen Palace and cutting down all the trees behind her.
What kind of monster is this?
Chen Zhong's voice was somewhat hoarse:
"It's a spatial distortion!"
"Half of the Sumeru Ring of the Great Yong Dynasty was actually made by the Beichen Palace."
"Even fewer Sumeru vows are produced at Longhua Temple."
"Correct answer."
The Palace Master of Beichen Palace showed an approving expression. For a martial artist of innate level to be able to guess her domain was truly remarkable.
Chen Zhong and the others had bloodshot eyes.
"Lord Tusu, let's go!"
They forcibly activated their true energy, attempting to create an opportunity for Tu Su to destroy the Thousand Illusion Pearl.
At this moment, Chen Zhong felt somewhat fortunate.
His Highness tricked everyone; while the enemy was pursuing him towards Jiangnan, he had already vanished without a trace.
He didn't even mention the matter of Bashu to Tusu.
This is the only way to ensure safety.
Everyone rushed toward the Palace Master of Beichen Palace, but they were unable to get close.
"Your spatial domain has its limits."
Tu Su's starry eyes opened completely, and all the copper coins on his body were released in an instant.
She intends to target the Northern Star Palace Master's weakness and completely shatter his domain.
The spatial domain is extremely difficult, and even grandmasters cannot fully control it.
Countless copper coins rained down on every node of the field like a shower of flowers.
She can see the flow of profound energy and the changes in the domain.
The God of Wealth – A One-Throw Throw!
All our hopes are pinned here.
Tu Su's goal was not to kill the Palace Master of Beichen Palace, but to erase the Thousand Illusion Pearl.
We must not let her find His Highness.
But the next second, dazzling starlight flashed before everyone's eyes.
These stars shone brightly, and every ray of light that struck the copper coin caused it to disappear completely.
They then appeared behind Chen Zhong and the others.
puff!
Chen Zhong and the others were struck in acupoints and instantly became unable to move.
The stars have all been counted—the constellations have shifted and the stars have moved!
Tu Su's calculations were completely correct, but the Palace Master of Beichen Palace could instantly shift nodes and modify the location of the domain.
Tu Su was slightly taken aback, and the Thousand Illusion Pearl in his hand disappeared, falling into the hands of the Palace Master of Beichen Palace.
"Your Highness!"
A sense of despair was evident in everyone's eyes.
A top-tier grandmaster, the third strongest on the Heavenly Ranking, directly unleashed his domain; there was absolutely no chance of victory for him.
The odds of winning are zero.
Then all we can do is make a final charge.
We'll give it our all.
Just as Tu Su was feeling the carefree sword in his arms, the treasure that Zhao Jing had brought down, he realized that...
Perhaps we can make a final push.
At this moment, the Palace Master of Beichen Palace smiled faintly:
"You really do have starry eyes."
"It's just that some fool wasted such a precious resource by letting you cultivate the Money God Technique."
"Why don't you come with me?"
ha?
Weren't you here to hunt them down on behalf of the imperial court?
Tu Su was stunned.
