Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Yan Maozong Arrives!

Once again facing Iron Venerable, Wei Wuya dared not take him lightly.

He immediately channeled his strength and met the challenge head-on.

The figures of both men were as swift as lightning, clashing together in an instant.

Clang!

Wei Wuya’s punch, ruthlessly striking Iron Venerable’s chest, emitted a dull thud reminiscent of metal, accompanied by a forceful rebound.

In that instant, the sleeve of Wei Wuya’s right arm turned into countless shreds.

Simultaneously, the veins in his right arm cracked, seeping blood.

In contrast, Iron Venerable, despite taking Wei Wuya’s punch, seemed largely unharmed, merely being pushed back more than ten meters.

Their head-on clash seemed to favor Wei Wuya, but he was the one who got injured.

On the other hand, Iron Venerable’s offensive was obviously weaker than Wei Wuya"s, yet he remained unscathed.

This peculiar outcome shocked everyone from Wuge.

Looking over at Zhao Zhinian and the others, their faces were filled with a cold smile.

This was Iron Venerable’s most formidable aspect.

His offense might not be very strong, but his defense could shatter his opponents.

"Minister Wei truly possesses overwhelming strength, injuring himself while hitting others like this, truly an eye-opener for me."

"Are you trying to scare us to death by self-harming?"

Zhao Zhinian mocked with a cold sneer.

Rage boiled within Wei Wuya, but he was completely helpless to respond.

Iron Venerable glanced down at his chest and then flashed a mocking smile as he charged at Wei Wuya once more.

Wei Wuya’s expression changed, and he had no choice but to fight back once again.

But just at that moment.

A terrifying wave of saber energy shot from a distance, targeting Iron Venerable.

Iron Venerable reacted quickly, immediately abandoning his attack on Wei Wuya to defend against the saber energy.

Bang!

With a single punch, he shattered the saber energy from afar.

He himself was sent flying and crashed heavily to the ground.

Nevertheless, with a carp’s flip, he sprang back to his feet.

Iron Venerable glanced at his fists, noticing a cut had appeared on his iron knuckles.

Although the wound was not deep, it still caused him a significant loss of face.

The others were likewise surprised and turned to look, only to see an old man with a long saber flying towards them.

The arrival was none other than Yan Maozong.

Yan Maozong spoke indifferently to Zhao Zhinian and the others:

"Governor Qi has decreed that within the bounds of Capital City, Saint Realm experts are forbidden to fight privately. If anyone openly breaks these rules, they will be making an enemy of the entire Dragon Country, and they will bear the consequences."

Zhao Zhinian clearly recognized Yan Maozong as well.

He frowned.

He hadn’t expected Qi Guochang to step in to protect Wuge at this critical juncture.

What was Qi Guochang trying to do?

Could it be that he was willing to stake his career against the Zhao Family?

His Zhao Family was, of course, not afraid of Qi Guochang, but if Qi Guochang stood together with Wei Wuya, then even his Zhao Family in Capital City could not ignore them.

After all, this was Dragon Country, not Capital City.

But Zhao Zhinian was unwilling to give up just like that.

His expression darkened as he looked at Yan Maozong.

"Is Governor Qi truly prepared to oppose the Zhao Family?"

Yan Maozong said indifferently:

"I believe I have made myself clear. The Governor represents the entire Dragon Country and doesn’t target anyone specifically, unless, of course, they break the rules."

Zhao Zhinian clenched his fists.

"The Governor really knows how to speak nobly. Well then, I wish the Governor a smooth and prosperous career, advancement at every step, and a long healthy life."

Although Zhao Zhinian’s words seemed like a blessing, they were laden with threats.

He knew that with Yan Maozong present, he wouldn’t be able to eliminate Bei Yong and the others that day.

So, he decided not to waste any more time.

"Let’s go."

Zhao Zhinian turned away angrily and strode off.

Yang Tianpeng, clutching his injured arm, was filled with resentment but without Zhao Zhinian, he couldn’t stir up any trouble and had to leave.

No sooner had they left.

Wei Wuya’s body trembled, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood.

Jiang Fengnian and the others turned pale and hurriedly stepped forward to support Wei Wuya.

Yan Maozong was also taken aback and approached Wei Wuya.

"Brother Wei, are you injured?"

Wei Wuya nodded.

"I was injured earlier and haven’t recovered yet."

Yan Maozong said gravely:

"I see. That explains why you were wounded by Iron Venerable."

Wei Wuya waved his hand.

"Even if I weren’t injured, I might not be a match for Iron Venerable."

"His Mysterious Turtle Technique is truly terrifying. What’s most frightening is that he’s just a run-of-the-mill elite expert from the Zhao Family of Capital City."

"It’s hard to imagine just how many such elite experts the Zhao Family has, and what kind of existence their top experts must be!"

At those words, everyone fell silent.

In everyone’s eyes, there was a flicker of shock and worry.

Yan Maozong sighed.

"Brother Wei is right. Even I might not be able to handle Iron Venerable."

"The Zhao Family of Capital City is indeed one of Dragon Country’s top families. Their formidable strength is inevitable. Therefore, it is unwise for Zhou Yu to oppose them."

"My visit today is actually on behalf of the Governor."

"The Governor’s wishes?"

Wei Wuya eagerly asked.

"What does the Governor intend?"
