Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 637 - 612 Assassination Again

The black mist blade light appeared too suddenly. With Wang Xu's strength, he couldn't react in time, and he didn't expect anyone to dare to strike against him in the City Lord's Mansion!

Bang!

Almost instantly, Wang Xu's figure was like a cannonball, being blasted away, creating a large hole in several buildings!

The Mist Blade Wanderer quietly appeared at the entrance of the dark hole, slowly retracting the Snow White Saber in his hand as the black mist dispersed.

"Hmph! Let's see if you can survive this time." The Mist Blade Wanderer sneered, intending to turn and leave. The commotion caused was too great, and in no more than two breaths, the Copper Medicine City Lord and the Copper Medicine family's powerhouses would arrive. He had to escape the City Lord's Mansion before they got there.

However, just as the Mist Blade Wanderer turned around, his whole body froze.

Crash.

In the far-off garden of the City Lord's Mansion, a hand broke through the rubble of stones, and then fiercely slammed down, sending all the stones scattering with a bang.

The figure in the black robe shook off the dust as he stood up from the smoke and dust, casually dusting off the dirt on his body. His eyes, cold and filled with killing intent, shot towards where the Mist Blade Wanderer was!

"What?!"

The Mist Blade Wanderer was beyond shocked. Even though the black mist shrouded his figure, obscuring his real expression, the slight tremor in the mist showed that Wang Xu's ability to withstand this blow impacted him immensely.

"Who dares to cause trouble in my mansion? Courting death!"

The shock hadn't worn off when a thunderous angry shout rippled over.

It was the Copper Medicine City Lord!

The Mist Blade Wanderer immediately snapped out of his shock, the black mist spreading as he prepared to flee.

Even though the Copper Medicine City Lord was an Emperor Spirit Realm powerhouse, while he was only at the peak of the Ancient Spirit Realm, he had some mastery in Body Technique Speed, but he couldn't escape if the City Lord had enough distance.

The gap between the Emperor Spirit Realm and the Ancient Spirit Realm was not just one star and half a point; one wrong step could lead to death!

"Trying to run after assassinating me?"

Wang Xu's gaze was fierce, and he would never easily let go of anyone who tried to kill him.

The Mist Blade Wanderer almost succeeded in killing him before. If not for Wang Xu's formidable strength, he might already be dead. Only a month had passed, and the Mist Blade Wanderer had dared to risk heavy danger to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion to kill him...

Such hatred he could endure when he wasn't strong enough, but now that his physique could rival the Early Stage of the Emperor Spirit Realm, even those of the Emperor Spirit Realm couldn't deal with him, so how could he continue to endure?

Whoosh!

The next moment, Wang Xu's Body Technique Speed exploded, with a speed equal to the Mist Blade Wanderer!

It should be noted that even before reaching the First Realm of "Face," Wang Xu already had a Body Technique Speed comparable to the Ancient Spirit Realm. Now not only had his physique strengthened, but he had also begun to learn the Truth Secret Technique "Assault," so how could his speed be slower than a mere peak Ancient Spirit Realm person?

"Hell!"

The Mist Blade Wanderer was about to dash out of the City Lord's Mansion, but when he looked back, the fright almost made him stumble, "What's with this kid? How is his Body Technique Speed so terrifying, even slightly faster than mine!"

Slightly faster?

It's more than just slightly!

In just three breaths, Wang Xu was already closing in on the Mist Blade Wanderer, right behind him!

"Your Body Technique..." The Mist Blade Wanderer shouted uncontrollably in surprise, but Wang Xu gave him no chance to finish the sentence, his Bone Saber whirling out, cutting through with the force of a thousand catties!

The Mist Blade Wanderer, seeing this, hurriedly took out his Snow White Saber, flipping his hand to block the strike.

This move completely exposed the panic in the Mist Blade Wanderer's heart.

One must know, the one chasing him was just a small fry in the True Spirit Realm, and as a peak Ancient Spirit Realm, he could withstand it without counterattacking, yet at this moment, in the Mist Blade Wanderer's heart, Wang Xu was no longer a mere True Spirit Realm, but a being of the same level, perhaps even stronger!

Clang!

The collision of weapons caused the Mist Blade Wanderer to feel a numbness in his palm, and the hand gripping the Snow White Saber began trembling uncontrollably.

This strike made the Mist Blade Wanderer's figure halt slightly, significantly decreasing his speed.

Wang Xu glanced at the Mist Blade Wanderer with a cold gaze, his Bone Saber poised and ready to strike at any moment, but he merely glanced back and then directly sheathed his Bone Saber, his pursuit speed suddenly slowed.

The Mist Blade Wanderer was puzzled why Wang Xu suddenly gave up the chase until a giant hand appeared behind him, grabbing him firmly with lightning speed, and then finally realized apprehensively.

The Copper Medicine City Lord had arrived.

Bang!

The giant hand, after grabbing the Mist Blade Wanderer, slammed him to the ground without a word, causing a sudden collapse within a hundred meters around, forming a dark giant pit.

This was with the Copper Medicine City Lord deliberately controlling his strength. Otherwise, with just this strike, he could have destroyed half of Copper Medicine City!

The Mist Blade Wanderer was merely at the peak of the Ancient Spirit Realm. Being caught by an Emperor Spirit Realm person, however talented he was, he couldn't escape. This time, he was utterly defeated.

Wang Xu stopped and watched coldly.

The power of the Emperor Spirit Realm was terrifying beyond measure. After just a few bouts, the Mist Blade Wanderer was heavily injured, barely clinging to life.

"Come back with me, I will 'entertain' you well and let you taste the wrath of my Copper Medicine Thunder Roar!"

The City Lord of Copper Medicine, along with the Mist Blade Wanderer, spoke to Wang Xu before swiftly heading towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Wang Xu stayed where he was, watching them leave.

"The physical strength of the Early Stage Emperor Spirit Realm... truly remarkable!" With his fists clenched, a smile appeared on Wang Xu's face.

He had just Cultivated "Form" to the First Realm, and he was in need of a sparring partner to test his strength. The Mist Blade Wanderer undoubtedly served this role.

Perfectly withstanding the Mist Blade Wanderer's full-powered strike, without a single scratch on him, this was the might of the Early Stage Emperor Spirit Realm's body.

Moreover, the slash he delivered matched the Mist Blade Wanderer's strength.

This proved that Wang Xu could now rival those at the peak of the Ancient Spirit Realm, only a step away from the true Emperor Spirit Realm.

...

The interrogation of the Mist Blade Wanderer proceeded very smoothly.

In front of someone like the City Lord of Copper Medicine, who was in the Emperor Spirit Realm, any stubbornness from the Mist Blade Wanderer was futile. Moreover, as an assassin, his priority was money, followed by his life.

But when he couldn't get the money and would lose his life, the Mist Blade Wanderer became frightened.

He had painstakingly Cultivated for so many years to reach the peak of the Ancient Spirit Realm, and he was unwilling to sacrifice his life for the trivial Yunjuan family.

Thus, the Mist Blade Wanderer revealed everything.

Three days later, the City Lord of Copper Medicine led dozens of Ancient Spirit Realm individuals and hundreds in the True Spirit Realm to the Yunjuan family.

The Grand Elder of the Yunjuan family seemed to have known this would happen, and with a wave of his hand, brought out the tightly bound Yunjuan Heicheng.

The commotion caused by the capture of the Mist Blade Wanderer was so great on that day that how could the Yunjuan family not know?

The Grand Elder had been keeping a close watch on Yunjuan Heicheng, and upon learning of the situation, personally apprehended Yunjuan Heicheng, all to protect the Yunjuan family and appease the wrath of Copper Medicine Thunder Roar.

"Grand Elder! Help me! Please save me!"

Yunjuan Heicheng cried and begged.

"Self-inflicted misfortune, one cannot live, City Lord of Copper Medicine, this matter is our Yunjuan family's fault. Yunjuan Heicheng will pay an appropriate price for his foolishness. I hope the City Lord of Copper Medicine can calm your wrath and leave a way out for our Yunjuan family," the Grand Elder said with a sigh, appearing much older.

"Want to calm my anger? I'm afraid it won't be that simple." The City Lord of Copper Medicine stood at the forefront of the crowd, looking dignified and domineering, with sharp and fierce eyes. "Yunjuan Heicheng has provoked my Copper Medicine family time and again. His life is mine, but do you think this can be resolved so perfunctorily?"

"City Lord of Copper Medicine, whatever conditions you have, our Yunjuan family will comply," the Grand Elder sighed.

From the moment Yunjuan Heicheng's incident occurred, the Grand Elder had foreseen this scene.

The City Lord of Copper Medicine set forth three conditions, each more stringent than the last, yet everyone from the Yunjuan family, though filled with anger, dared not speak out. Yunjuan Heicheng had provoked first, and now, with the City Lord of Copper Medicine pressing strongly, he had only one goal — to flatten the Yunjuan family!

In the face of preserving their lives and continuing the Yunjuan family bloodline, no matter how harsh the conditions, they had to accept them all.

Otherwise, if they angered the City Lord of Copper Medicine again, the Yunjuan family could very well be completely erased from Copper Medicine City.

Wang Xu stood to the side, indifferent to such scenes which he had long become accustomed to.

He understood that the City Lord of Copper Medicine brought him along to witness the cruelty of power struggles between the Second Layer factions, yet little did they know that Wang Xu had endured far more brutality than the City Lord of Copper Medicine!

In the end, the matter was resolved, and the Yunjuan family was once again gravely injured in spirit. It seemed that in the future, the four great families of Copper Medicine City would no longer include the name Yunjuan.

Time continued to pass, and ten years flew by in an instant.

"Tai Xu, it's time to go."

Wang Xu lazily walked out of the room, exuding a different kind of intimidating aura.

Compared to ten years ago, Wang Xu had now stabilized the First Realm of "Form" Cultivation, naturally possessing a trace of Early Stage Emperor Spirit Realm's momentum.

"Why is even Ye Rong going to the main family?" Wang Xu asked curiously upon seeing Copper Medicine Yerong in red, her ponytail swinging over her shoulder, full of youthful vitality.

Upon seeing Wang Xu, Copper Medicine Yerong's previously frosty face inexplicably blushed, prompting her to move behind the fierce flying beast to hide.

In the past ten years, Copper Medicine Yerong and Wang Xu have been almost inseparable, growing from strangers to acquaintances over time.

Initially, she thought Wang Xu was merely a scheming person who wanted to take advantage for power and wealth in the Copper Medicine family.

However, after spending some time with Wang Xu, Copper Medicine Yerong found that he was steady, introverted, and had a mysterious quality similar to her father, the City Lord of Copper Medicine.

This mysterious aura attracted Copper Medicine Yerong, making her unconsciously want to gaze at Wang Xu, and over time, she found that there was a unique glow about Wang Xu, enveloping him, making Copper Medicine Yerong involuntarily want to get closer.

"The main family is Yerong's hometown. She has never seen what her hometown is like since she was born, and it's time for her to see it," the City Lord of Copper Medicine said, leaping onto the back of a fierce flying beast.

"Come on up."

Copper Medicine Yerong, the entourage of the City Lord, and Wang Xu all jumped onto the back of the fierce flying beast.

The fierce flying beast spread its wings and let out a chilling cry that pierced through the clouds, rising into the sky, leaving Copper Medicine City behind. (To be continued.
