Chapter 3, Golden Dragon Sword

With a wave of his hand, the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth coalesced under his control into a golden palm print, which violently struck down, severely injuring the fleeing Iron Demon and smashing it to the ground

In his terrified gaze, Zhang Ronghua struck, hitting the bones on his body several times

"You have made a great contribution, and I have never been stingy towards those who have done meritorious deeds. This is the Golden Dragon Sword awarded to you!" said the Crown Prince

A panicked voice came from ahead, "My lord, run quickly! The Jiao Long Wei have arrived"

You have only one opportunity

Kill them!" the Crown Prince commanded

Open the door, Zhang Ronghua instructed

The branch of the Di Sha is located at the Xiao Liu Restaurant in Dongcheng, which serves as our stronghold; apart from this, there are no other strongholds in the capital.

Thank you, Your Highness! Zhang Ronghua drew his sword

Be careful! The Iron Demon nodded.

"You go ahead, my lord! I will take care of him." Yaoyue took out a long whip

Zhang Ronghua had a keen eye and immediately recognized this as Lingbao. Although he desired it greatly in his heart, he did not show it on his face

Come in! The voice of the Crown Prince came from inside

He made a gesture of cutting his throat while speaking

"Do you know the Seven Cuts to Extinguish the Soul?" Zhang Ronghua asked

Knock on the palace door

Go

Are you able to? The old ghost's expression changed dramatically

With a wave and a clap, the pain that enveloped him was temporarily alleviated

Jumping down from the eaves, before the long whip in Yaoyue's hand could be raised, her neck was already seized, and her entire body was lifted off the ground, violently slammed down, subduing her

Clap! Clap!

Secretly employing the technique of spiritual clarity to enhance vision, without revealing any signs, I gazed towards the Crown Prince

Ah..." Old Ghost let out a cry of despair

Qing'er showed a look of confusion: "Your Highness, why do you not ... ... "

Opposite him stood an enchanting young woman named Yao Yue, dressed in a light green short skirt that perfectly showcased her assets, her expression equally cold at that moment

side hall

The Crown Prince clapped his hands, and a palace maid emerged from behind, holding a rectangular box. She handed it to Qing'er and then withdrew.

Backyard, study

This is also acceptable

A person opened the palace door and stepped inside

Leaving the side hall, he instructed to take two teams of the Jiaolong Guards, totaling twenty individuals, and head towards the Xiaoliu Restaurant in the East City

In the Great Xia Dynasty, anyone who colludes with demons is guilty of the heinous crime of exterminating nine clans. Once discovered, they will be eradicated completely.

It is an adult

Turning away, I walked towards the side hall, where the criminals were held

Zhang Ronghua said: "Demon?"

Well

Is there still no news from Old Ghost?" asked Iron Demon

The middle-aged man is dead, but the old ghost has yet to speak. Since they are in your custody, this matter is entrusted to you. I have only one request: uproot the Earthly Fiends completely

"Did I let you go?" Zhang Ronghua scoffed

Pushed the door open and walked in

After a period of time, the pain will transform into a different type, without repetition, tormenting to the utmost degree

Xuanhe Hall

The servant understands! Qing'er will comply

You must personally investigate this matter and ensure that the individuals behind it are brought to light

The two individuals changed their expressions, exchanging a glance with each other, their gazes extremely cold and sinister

Xiao Liu Restaurant is quite famous in this area, although its location is not very good, the food is delicious, the prices are reasonable, and it attracts a large number of customers

The Earth Fiends have already been captured, and the person in charge is named Iron Demon, who is a wolf demon

Once a decision is made in the heart, just take a look!

Qing'er opened the box, revealing a long sword inside. The sword was entirely golden, with golden light swirling along the blade, and the sharp sword energy formed a storm, howling as it emanated outward

... ...

Cold sweat instantly drenched him, and the pain caused the veins on his forehead to bulge, his meridians convulsing, as if someone had shattered his soul, sprinkled it with salt, and then plunged it into boiling water

The Iron Demon and the others were taken down, and this matter has come to an end. However, curiosity killed the cat; he was wondering whether he should use the Spirit Clarity Eye when he meets the Crown Prince later to see if he is of the female gender

When he left, the palace gate closed

A middle-aged man sat in a chair with a stern expression; his name is Tie Mo, the head of the Earth Fiends branch in the capital city.

Although the Iron Demon was well hidden, it could not escape his perception, as he sensed a faint aura of the demon from him

Zhang Ronghua frowned: "Have the earth spirits colluded with the demons?"

Gazing at the sky, with its blue expanse and white clouds, under the gentle breeze and warm sun, I found myself unknowingly at the entrance of the Xuanhe Hall

You shall not obtain any information from my lips!

Killing him is simple, but does it not inform the mastermind that there is indeed a ghost?" The Crown Prince sneered

Zhang Ronghua left and walked towards the side hall

The old ghost was bound to the wall in a spread-eagle position, with limbs shackled by iron chains, skin torn and flesh exposed, blood smeared, appearing to have suffered greatly last night, looking utterly dispirited

The Crown Prince sits in the main seat, and from his expression, it is evident that no useful information can be obtained

Walk up to him

Return to the Eastern Palace

I have already sent someone to search, and after a whole night, there is not a single clue. After a pause, Yaoyue expressed her speculation: "Do you think he might have been captured? And then betray us?"

I, I say! The old ghost is afraid

I have seen the esteemed one!" The guards at the entrance, known as the Jiaolong Guards, respectfully saluted.

He was the first to stand up from the chair, rushing out of the window, just as he was about to escape. A chill swept over him, and he instinctively looked up to see a young man standing on the eaves, watching them with cold eyes

Zhang Ronghua crossed his arms and wore a mocking expression: "I have plenty of time to spend with you."

A powerful golden light obscured his clear vision, and one could see the dragon energy surging, manifesting from his body in a manner invisible to the naked eye, coalescing into a five-clawed golden dragon that coiled above the crown prince's head. This was the protective aura of the Great Xia Dynasty's national fortune, preventing others from prying.

The infamous Seven Cuts of Soul Destruction has a notorious reputation, having stirred up considerable commotion in the martial world several decades ago. Anyone who falls victim to this technique, regardless of their level of cultivation or the toughness of their bones, will find themselves in a state akin to that of a dog, unable to seek life or death. It can be said to be the most terrifying punishment in the world

Can speak a little

Well

You had better pray that you are not deceiving me said Zhang Ronghua

Seal this place off, then escort them back, taking away all valuable items.

He, like you, is a trusted confidant of this seat; even if captured, he would not betray us

Rushing outwards, accompanied by a gust of demonic wind

The Iron Demon angrily smashed the table, reflecting on his earlier words, feeling as if he had slapped himself in the face. Just moments ago, he had claimed that Old Ghost would not betray him, and now the people from the court had come to kill him.

Qing'er and Shuang'er stood behind him

The Iron Demon cast a cold glare at her, causing the妖月 to tremble in fear, and she hurriedly admitted her mistake: "I acknowledge my fault!"

She and Lao Gui are the right and left arms of Tie Mo, assisting him in handling matters in the capital.

The battle outside has concluded, and my subordinate rushed in
