Chapter 135: Chapter 135: Hongyun Town
"General Lei Ting, is that person dead?" Mr. Corpse asked.
"Damn it, that kid has some incredible luck, always managing to escape. This time, he even got me injured. It's only now that I've fully recovered," General Lei Ting replied, looking rather frustrated.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Corpse squinted his eyes and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He said, "It seems that His Majesty's order for you to hunt him down is quite difficult. Why don't you return with me?"
"Nonsense! Is killing that pest difficult? I promised His Majesty that I would kill him. How can I face His Majesty if I return now?" General Lei Ting said angrily, still not showing proper respect to Mr. Corpse.
Mr. Corpse shot General Lei Ting a cold glance, then smiled slightly. "In that case, I wish you good luck, General."
"Hmph," General Lei Ting snorted.
Mr. Corpse then turned and swiftly flew away on his sword—
In the Dacheng Dynasty, Xuanjing, within the palace's Wolf God Hall.
"Roar~~~~~~~~~~"
A thunderous roar emanated from the Wolf God Hall, so loud it seemed to reverberate throughout the entire capital.
Qingyun, the Wolf General, stared wide-eyed at Zhong Shan, who was sitting cross-legged in front of him. Even this seasoned general, who had weathered countless storms, now had a bead of cold sweat on his forehead, looking at Zhong Shan in disbelief.
Zhong Shan sat in meditation. An hour later, he slowly opened his eyes, looking at the still-shocked Qingyun.
"Are you cultivating or playing with death?" Qingyun asked, swallowing hard.
Zhong Shan rose gently, not feeling anything amiss. Shaking his head, he said, "I must break through, and didn't I just break through? I'm now at the eighth level of the Xiantian stage."
Zhong Shan felt a slight sense of satisfaction. At the eighth level of the Xiantian stage, under the Heavenly Demon Refining Body Technique, he could now directly confront those at the early Jindan stage.
"Woo~~~~~~~~~~"
Outside the capital, a wolf's howl suddenly echoed, piercing through the air and reaching the Wolf God Hall.
Upon hearing this, Zhong Shan furrowed his brow and turned to look at Qingyun, as if he had realized something.
Qingyun also furrowed his brow, then looked at Zhong Shan and said, "Congratulations, Lei Ting has appeared." ation, a fierce glint flashed in Zhong Shan's eyes. Finally, he had appeared. Good, good, good!
"What are you planning to do?" Qingyun asked.
"I've long been prepared, just waiting for Lei Ting to appear. Don't worry, I promised you wouldn't need to take action, and you won't. I'll arrange everything, and later, you just need to have a wolf lead me to Lei Ting," Zhong Shan said, taking a deep breath.
"Okay," Qingyun nodded.
Quickly, Zhong Shan stepped out of the Wolf God Hall and began making arrangements.
To deal with Lei Ting, he needed to tear him apart completely. This time, Zhong Shan would take the initiative. No one could provoke Zhong Shan and still live freely afterward, not even a Yuan Ying stage expert.
This time, Zhong Shan would personally bring down this lofty expert—
In the Dacheng Dynasty, to the north, there was a place called Hongyun Town.
With a flip of his hand, General Lei Ting summoned a massive thunderball and hurled it toward the house Zhong Shan had entered.
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
A gigantic bolt of lightning streaked through the sky, the thunderball crashing into the house, which exploded with a tremendous noise.
Outside the city, many of the defending soldiers felt a chill in their hearts.
The God of Thunder! That person was the God of Thunder! He must be an immortal from the heavens; otherwise, how could he summon such thunder?
Some soldiers were already panicking. Would accompanying His Majesty to kill the God of Thunder provoke his wrath and doom them all?
After the thunderball struck, the house was shattered, but Zhong Shan's body was nowhere to be found. Instead, beneath the ground, there was a tunnel, a dark and deep tunnel.
"Bastard~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
General Lei Ting roared in fury, his figure swiftly darting into the tunnel.
The God of Thunder was enraged. The God of Thunder was enraged?
While the army outside was in turmoil, a loud shout suddenly came from the manor behind them.
"Heaven and Earth, Summon!"
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
With a dull thud, a massive red wolf, twenty meters high, suddenly appeared within the manor.
Zhong Shan, clad in a robe adorned with nine dragons and clouds, stepped onto the giant red wolf.
Turning his head, Qingyun Wolf General looked incredulously at the massive red wolf. The eighth level of the Golden Core stage? Wouldn't that require all of Zhong Shan's true essence? But now, Zhong Shan seemed not to have expended any energy at all. Did he have a Bu Tian Dan (Heaven-Mending Pill)?
Moreover, when had Zhong Shan returned? Wasn't he in the distance just now? The tunnel?
A twenty-meter-tall wolf, as tall as a six-story building, brought immense shock to all the soldiers. Zhong Shan, standing atop the wolf's head, exuded an aura of dominance, looking down on all beings.
The enormous wolf indeed had a powerful impact, quickly calming the army's agitation. At this moment, everyone realized that their emperor was no ordinary person.
The red wolf, carrying Zhong Shan, slowly walked to the front of the manor.
"Greetings, Your Majesty." The army bowed in unison.
Zhong Shan surveyed the soldiers and then turned his gaze to Wei Taizhong.
"Taizhong," Zhong Shan called.
"Your servant is here," Wei Taizhong immediately responded.
"Begin now," Zhong Shan said coldly.
"Yes," Wei Taizhong replied respectfully.
Wei Taizhong quickly moved away, while Zhong Shan, riding the mighty red wolf, slowly walked to the front of the army. He gazed coldly at the distant Hongyun Town.
