Chapter 567: Chapter 40: My Suggestion is to Go Together [Request for Monthly Votes!]_1

"Hahahaha——"

On the high platform, Huang Hanshan’s laughter was particularly piercing, forming a stark contrast with the iron-blue face of Huyan Dong on the other side.

Xu Baishan couldn’t stand to watch, saying quietly, "There’s no need to laugh so loud..."

"I’m happy for our young brother." Huang Hanshan exclaimed, "Your sworn brother Xu Baishan, is the same as my sworn brother."

Chu Liang’s night raid on Yanbo City was unexpected to everyone.

The night was usually a quiet time, yet Chu Liang dared to solo raid Yanbo City!

This choice seemed so bold it almost looked like a suicide mission.

In fact, most of the spectators thought so, believing Chu Liang’s action was more about a show of desperation after his comrades were wiped out.

The idea that he was "joining Jiang Yuebai in a lovers’ death" became increasingly widespread.

The question now was how many enemies he could take down with him.

This exciting night-time show kept many of the spectators who had planned to go home. They gathered at the foot of Emperor Qiu Mountain to watch the spectacle. Most of them started cheering for Chu Liang spontaneously.

His actions were undoubtedly a bit tragic.

When he single-handedly wiped out a squad from Taotie City, a massive cheer erupted from the crowd, albeit accompanied by a small amount of wailing as well.

Many prominent gamblers felt that Taotie City, with its vast wealth, was sure to bribe everyone for guaranteed advancement into the Nine Heavens.

Driven by greed, these gamblers had bet their fortunes on Taotie City.

Indeed, things had gone as predicted when Taotie City formed an alliance with Penglai to annihilate a large portion of the forces from Shu Mountain. The gamblers had been smug then, proudly declaring that they knew the inside story all along.

But who could have expected Chu Liang to disrupt their plans?

Could he really defeat Taotie City single-handedly, let alone advance alone? And could he wipe out Penglai alone? What was he trying to achieve?

Even when Chu Liang was pursuing Huyan Bin, there were still people who forced themselves to stay calm, saying, "They must have failed to agree on a price. He couldn’t be planning to kill him for real."

Bankrupted gamblers wailed in despair, their cries merging into a chorus. But the majority of the crowd, those who were merely there for the spectacle, cheered for Chu Liang’s impressive performance.

Thanks to Chu Liang, the night outside Yu Capital City was set ablaze with excitement.

"This boy..." Elder Huang commented in surprise, "I used to think he was a clever schemer for his age. But it seems that deep down, he’s just like Ah Feng."

Elder Sun nodded in agreement, then slid a glance at him, "So, you’re saying... Ah Feng isn’t clever?"

Elder Huang instantly jolted, "I never said that, don’t twist my words..."

Thunk——

Before he could finish, he had already darted off to one side of the stand.

Empress Feng took her foot back and muttered, "You clearly said that. I heard it loud and clear."

"Yet your disciple really does share some similarities with you. He usually seems so nonchalant, but the moment anyone or anything he cares about is threatened, he’s capable of exhibiting incredible power." Elder Sun sighed, "In the future, he will surely shine just like you do atop Shu Mountain."

"Hehe, you flatter me..." Empress Feng laughed, "My disciple is indeed not bad, but he’s still a long way from catching up to me."

Really now.

Elder Sun couldn’t help but curse inwardly. Just when he thought she would show some humility, she turned out to be just modest on her disciple’s behalf.

"You obviously meant the same thing I did..." grumbled Elder Huang who had crawled back.

"Hehe." Elder Sun chuckled.

Do you understand the importance of mastering the ’Emotional Quotient’ now?

...

The explosions in Yanbo City paused for a while before resuming.

Chu Liang guessed that someone in the city was probably going after Pu Shan. However, Pu Shan was no pushover either — he should be able to handle it — after all, he still had more than 200 advanced puppets to help him.

After quickly dealing with the people from Taotie City, Chu Liang continued to fly forward. He had just passed through two streets when he saw another figure ahead.

In the glorious blaze, the young man dressed in black, carrying a long knife on his back, stood straight at the end of the long street.

He was waiting for him.

Chu Liang could tell his intentions at a glance.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh——

At this moment, several sharp white feathers were suddenly shot from the side. They were chilling to the bone, and Chu Liang, with his robust physique, subconsciously felt a sense of danger.

He quickly used Shrinkage and dodged ten feet away.

The white feathers fell on some rubble, and in an instant, they penetrated and melted the rubble. It seemed they were infused with some strange poison.

As Chu Liang landed, before he had steadied his footing, a shadow emerged from the one beneath his feet.

It was a petite and exquisite woman. Only half of her body protruded from the shadows, silently, two cold blades in her hands swiped at Chu Liang’s legs.

Chu Liang seemed completely unaware, but suddenly stomped his foot!

Boom——

The ground split in an instant, and the woman who emerged from the shadows was sent flying several feet. After a few mid-air flips, she landed on the side, kicked a large stone towards him, creating gusts of wind.

Just as the large stone was about to hit Chu Liang, it suddenly turned in mid-air, transforming into a burly man in a Vajra pose, who let out a loud shout as he punched down!

Chu Liang was unafraid of a competition of strength, and he punched out to meet it.

Bang! Boom——

After one punch from each side, the big man was bounced back into the ruins, causing a booming sound when he landed.

In the blink of an eye, Chu Liang had already crossed hands with three people in black.

Fuyao Country, Yu Bo Mansion.

Looking at the people in front of him, he knew that he probably couldn’t avoid this battle. As a staunch ally of Penglai, how could Fuyao Country show their loyalty if they didn’t fight?

The youth at the end of the street with the knife on his back slowly walked over, and leisurely said: "You really are an expert. Our master asked us to keep an eye on the Shu Mountain group from the start. Even though everyone said that Jiang Yuebai is the leader, I always thought you were the strongest."

"Then you’re mistaken. Senior Sister Jiang is stronger than me," Chu Liang replied.

"When Yang Shenlong said he wanted to deal with Shu Mountain, we also wanted to step in. But he said no need, just watch over Yanbo City. I still have some regrets for not having the chance to kill a disciple of Shu Mountain to avenge my master."

"So I’m very grateful that you came to me yourself."

Snap.

He stopped five feet in front of Chu Liang. For a cultivator, life and death could be decided in a breath at this distance.

Chu Liang’s aura locked on to him, and his aura also locked on to Chu Liang. In fact, the contest between the two of them started when he began approaching.

"Out of gratitude, I will give you a fair duel." The youth with the knife on his back said, then he ordered his companions: "You all back off! Regardless of the result of this battle, none of you are allowed to interfere."

"Forget it," Chu Liang shook his head in disagreement. "My suggestion is that it’s better if you all come at me together."

"Are you despising us?" The youth with the knife on his back sneered: "You’ll regret your arrogance."

"Not at all, I have great respect for you people from Fuyao Country." Chu Liang sincerely said: "I’m just worried that if they leave, I won’t be able to gather enough Soul Crystals."
