What surprised Player Zhang Hao the most was not that the opponent was a Martial King Second Heaven. Instead, a golden light shimmered on the opponent's body. In other words, this person was a mini-BOSS.
Becoming a BOSS proved that the opponent was his enemy.
More than ten Martial Kings, even with Zhang Hao's ability to fight above his level, still made his scalp tingle.
More than ten Martial King First Heaven, plus one Martial King Second Heaven. They could completely overwhelm Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao knew that with these people targeting him, it would be absolutely impossible for him to leave. No wonder he had been feeling uneasy these past few days. So the problem lay here.
Who exactly wanted to deal with him? Zhang Hao was a little surprised.
Nangong Family? Zhang Hao felt the possibility was small. The assassins they sent were killed by him. If they wanted to deal with him again, it was unlikely they would send people so quickly.
Sky Punishment assassins? Zhang Hao also felt the possibility was small. Sky Punishment assassins had always been elusive. Appearing so brazenly in the inn was not their style.
Thus, Zhang Hao couldn't figure out the origin of these people for a while.
Although facing so many Martial Kings at once, Zhang Hao was more worried about Song Sitian. He was confident he could escape alone, but taking this burden with him would be difficult. He had to get Song Sitian out of here first.
After careful consideration, Zhang Hao dipped his finger in water and wrote a few words on the table.
The gist of those words was for Song Sitian to leave quickly and meet up in Tianwu City.
However, Zhang Hao knew he couldn't move. He had to stay here to attract these people's attention.
"Girl, go find Xiao Er and ask for some feed for our horses. They haven't eaten well all day. We'll eat quickly and hit the road early," Zhang Hao said deliberately in a loud voice.
"Okay!"
Song Sitian stood up and walked out.
Because Zhang Hao was still in the inn, those youths didn't suspect anything.
Zhang Hao ordered a few bottles of wine. He began to sip slowly. He was creating time for Song Sitian to leave. Zhang Hao estimated that to avoid alerting them, it was unlikely these people would make a move on him in the inn. After all, no matter what, Zhang Hao was still a student of Tianwu Academy. Attacking him publicly would come with great scruples.
Indeed, since Zhang Hao didn't leave, those people didn't leave either. They just watched Zhang Hao drink bottle after bottle of wine, and those few Martial Kings also grew a little impatient.
Moreover, some Martial Warriors suddenly noticed that the girl Zhang Hao brought had been gone for over half an hour and hadn't returned, which was a bit strange.
Fortunately, their target was Zhang Hao, so they didn't think too much about it.
"Xiao Er, settlement!" Zhang Hao threw a silver ingot on the table and strode away.
As soon as he left the inn, Zhang Hao got on his horse and left.
Zhang Hao rode his horse, but hadn't gone far. In the void, over a dozen figures flew towards him.
Zhang Hao sighed inwardly. In fact, he had known for a long time that he couldn't escape. After all, these people were all Martial Kings, and Martial Kings possessed the ability to fly. There was no way he could outrun these Martial Kings.
"Kid, you run really fast." A Triangular Eyes youth, the leader, with a sinister expression, hovered in the void, looking at him coldly.
Zhang Hao dismounted, slapped the horse's rear, and let the horse leave. A great battle was imminent here, and the horse had carried him for several days, so he naturally couldn't bear to let it be caught in the crossfire.
"Who are you? It seems this is our first meeting!" Zhang Hao said calmly.
"That's right!" The Triangular Eyes youth, the leader, didn't deny it.
"Since this is our first meeting, why does Ge Xia want to kill me?" Zhang Hao looked at the Martial King and asked coldly.
"Hehe, kid, don't blame us. It's because you offended someone you shouldn't have. Just accept your fate today," the Triangular Eyes youth, the leader, said with a cold, sharp smile.
This Triangular Eyes youth was precisely the Martial King Second Heaven Martial Warrior Zhang Hao had seen earlier in the inn.
"I want to know who sent you? Can you let me die knowing before I die?" Zhang Hao smiled slightly.
"There's no need for that. However, I advise you to be sensible and commit suicide. That way, you can suffer less," the Triangular Eyes youth said with an arrogant look, as if he was granting Zhang Hao a great favor.
"Hehe, is that so! Unfortunately, I won't turn back until I hit a wall. I'd like to exchange pointers."
Blood God Blade appeared in Zhang Hao's hand. His expression was cold and ruthless, and a fierce Killing Intent emanated from his body.
"Presumptuous!"
The Triangular Eyes youth said to a Ma Lian Qingnian beside him, "Peng Guang, you go and take him down."
The Triangular Eyes youth didn't go together. To him, facing a Great Martial Master Martial Warrior, any one of them could take him down instantly. It would be as easy as picking something up from a pouch.
The Ma Lian Qingnian snorted coldly, swept down from the air, and reached out to grab Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao's expression was solemn. Although he was now at the Great Martial Master Peak cultivation level, facing a Martial King who was a whole major Realm stronger than him, he didn't dare to be negligent in the slightest.
"Cold Blade Ice Heart!" As soon as he made his move, it was Aohan Six Styles' strongest move.
Instantly, the void darkened. A powerful blade aura crushed towards the Ma Lian Qingnian.
"Ding dong! Congratulations to Player Zhang Hao for triggering a critical hit with 'Aohan Six Styles'!" The System's mechanical voice sounded.
Instantly, double the power erupted, catching the Ma Lian Qingnian off guard. His claw shadow was instantly shattered by the blade light.
"Ah!" The Ma Lian Qingnian cried out in pain and quickly retreated.
Zhang Hao naturally wouldn't give the opponent this chance, pushing 'Swallow Shadow Drift' to its limit. He pursued like a shadow.
"Hundred Blade Slash!"
To eliminate the opponent's effective strength as much as possible, Zhang Hao held nothing back.
In almost a single breath, Zhang Hao unleashed twelve strikes. The dazzling blade light poured down like rain. Especially the twelfth strike, the pressure as heavy as a mountain instantly cleared the air within a ten-meter radius.
"Slash!"
"Get lost!"
The Ma Lian Qingnian was indeed a Martial King. He reacted instantly. He unleashed an extremely sharp claw strike. The fierce claw shadow, carrying the power to tear everything apart, grabbed towards Zhang Hao.
With a loud 'boom'!
The claw in the void was instantly torn apart by Zhang Hao's strike.
The claw shadow shattered, and the fierce blade light drove straight in.
"No!"
The Ma Lian Qingnian roared wildly.
But soon, his roar stopped abruptly. Because Zhang Hao's strike cut him in half at the waist.
"Ding dong! Congratulations to Player Zhang Hao for killing Peng Guang. Experience points 200000, True Qi 20000, Frenzy Energy 10."
"Damn it, you actually killed Peng Guang!"
The Triangular Eyes youth was instantly furious.
"Those who kill will be killed. If you're not convinced, come at me yourself. Don't send others to their deaths anymore."
Zhang Hao pointed his blade at the Triangular Eyes youth and said coldly.
"Good! Good! You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Then let me give you a good lesson."
The Triangular Eyes youth was enraged and lunged at Zhang Hao from the air. He threw a punch, striking towards Zhang Hao.
This punch was like dark clouds pressing down, a rolling flood, sweeping straight down.
