Inside Zhenyue City.
Qin Zhantian's spirits plummeted. Watching the soldiers around him perish under the arrows, he looked at Dugu Shang and said, "I'm grateful for your help, sir, in killing the Prince of Kao Shan."
Dugu Shang's face was terribly gloomy as he roared, "Qingluan, take men and kill all the soldiers on the city wall."
Azure Phoenix, a warrior from the Cloud Heaven Pavilion, soared into the air and rushed towards the city wall.
Just then.
A figure appeared, and with a wave of his hand, a powerful sword aura struck Qingluan and the others. The newcomer was none other than Liu Mubai.
A man stood in the void with a sword. Although he had fought with Chu Sheng and suffered considerable injuries, he was a Grandmaster, while Qing Luan and the others were only ninth-rank martial artists and were no match for him.
"Grandmaster!"
"Liu Mubai!"
Qin Zhantian realized they had fallen into a trap. "Sir, the Prince of Kaoshan knows our plan. He's luring us into a trap and intends to annihilate us all inside the city."
"General Qin, don't worry. Li Wuji is only a Grandmaster. He is no match for me."
"Uncle Yun, come with me to find King Kao Shan."

Uncle Yun, an old man with white hair and white beard, sat upright on horseback next to Dugu Shang, looking energetic and exuding a powerful and domineering aura. He was also a Grandmaster-level expert.
In order to seize the wordless heavenly book, Yuntian Pavilion sent two grandmasters, which is why Dugu Shang did not take Li Wuji seriously.
"Dugu Shang, I heard you're looking for me."
Li Wuji appeared, stepping through the air and standing beneath the bright moon. His overwhelming aura pressed down on everyone. "Qin Zhantian, Dugu Shang, do you like the surprise I prepared for you?"
Dugu Shang looked in the direction of the voice and roared, "Li Wuji, you've made an enemy of Yuntian Pavilion! Tonight, I swear to raze Zhenyue City to the ground!"
"You?"
"Even if Dugu Feng comes, I will still make him die here."
Li Wuji was nonchalant and didn't take Dugu Shang seriously at all. He had ignored Dugu Shang when he was a Grandmaster, and now he was a Great Grandmaster.
The two are no longer from the same world.
If Dugu Shang weren't the deputy head of Yuntian Pavilion, he wouldn't even have the right to speak to him.
Seeing that Li Wuji didn't take Yuntian Pavilion seriously, Dugu Shang was furious and was about to make a move when Elder Yun stopped him, saying, "Second Master, something's not right."
"What's the problem?" Dugu Shang asked dismissively.
"Second Master, the aura emanating from Li Wuji... didn't you notice anything wrong?" Elder Yun asked warily. "He's already a Grandmaster."
Upon hearing the words "Grandmaster," Dugu Shang's expression changed drastically. He lowered his eyes and looked over, only to find that Li Wuji's martial prowess was indeed that of a Grandmaster. When did he reach this level?
As a grandmaster martial artist, Dugu Shang knew all too well how difficult it was to reach the level of a great grandmaster.
Some people are trapped in this state and never make any progress in their lives; it is an insurmountable barrier that many martial artists can never overcome in their lifetime.
Li Wuji broke through the shackles and crossed the insurmountable barrier. The difference of just one realm made a world of difference in combat power.
"King Kao Shan, you have actually reached the Grandmaster level."
"What, can't I break through?" Li Wuji said in a deep voice.
Dugu Shang quickly said, "King Kao Shan, our Yuntian Pavilion did not enter the city to deal with you, but to target Chu Yun of Zhenyuan Escort Agency."
"Our Cloud Heaven Pavilion can stay out of this battle. We'll leave immediately. King Kao Shan doesn't want to be our enemy, right?"
Upon hearing this...
Li Wuji's face was terribly gloomy. He roared, "If you Yuntian Pavilion come at me, you will at most die. But if you come at our young master, I will tear you to pieces."
"You scum, you dare to covet the treasures on the young master's body?"
"Young Master?" Dugu Shang looked completely bewildered at Li Wuji, "You, the mighty Prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, actually recognize a江湖镖师 (jianghu镖师, a martial arts expert) as your young master? Li Wuji, are you out of your mind?"
"Dugu Shang, weren't you curious about why I've reached the Grandmaster level?"
"It was thanks to my young master's reward and guidance that I was able to be promoted."
"You know nothing about my young master. In your eyes, he is just a bodyguard. You can't imagine how powerful he is."
"You've said too much. Prepare to die!"
One person swooped down, the pressure of a Grandmaster descending, a spear pointing directly at Dugu Shang's face.
This moment.
On the wilderness.
Chu Sheng and his two companions galloped across the hillside, where they could see Zhenyue City from afar. Ling Shuo looked at the city engulfed in flames and asked, "Young Master, has the city gate been opened?"
Chu Sheng looked in the direction of the voice, his expression calm and collected. "Leave the matters of the two armies to the Prince of Kao Shan. Professional matters should be handled by professionals."
"He has already reached the Grandmaster level, and there is no suspense in this battle."
"The Great Xia will not be defeated!"
At this point, he looked at Li Anlan and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to worry."
""
Li Anlan feigned composure and said, "I'm not worried at all."
"I believe in you, and I believe in Uncle Wang."
Chu Sheng asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with me?"
Li Anlan said, "If you hadn't provided the clues, Uncle Wang wouldn't have been able to catch the spies and shadow guards of the Tang Dynasty. If you hadn't taken action, Uncle Wang wouldn't have been able to advance to the Grandmaster level."
"What you did may have been a casual act, but it completely changed the fate of Zhenyue City."
"It also changed the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty."
Chu Sheng laughed, "Am I that awesome? Surely not!"
Li Anlan shook his head and smiled, "Tonight's great battle has ended, and Uncle Wang's name will be known throughout the world. The news of his advancement to Grandmaster will also spread throughout the martial arts world. With the addition of a Grandmaster to Great Xia, the covetous nations will have to reassess Great Xia's strength."
"Has it changed the fate of the Great Xia Dynasty? Of course, the people in Zhenyue City will no longer have to be displaced and die far from home."
Everyone has different considerations. Chu Sheng helped Li Wuji break through to improve the strength of Zhenyuan Escort Agency, but Li Anlan saw the benefits that a Grandmaster would bring to Great Xia.
"Master Chu, with your talent and strength, being a bodyguard is a waste of your abilities."
"Stop..." Chu Sheng knew what Li Anlan was about to say. If he didn't give him a chance to speak, it would be impossible to persuade him to serve the court.
Li Anlan was very sensible and swallowed back the words that were about to come out. "Chu Sheng, what I really wanted to say was that being a bodyguard was a waste of his talents. You could be my son-in-law."
Chu Sheng: "This woman is getting more and more direct, coming straight to the point right away?"
You're lusting after me without even trying to hide it?
Ling Shuo rode alongside the two, looking embarrassed. "Is this something I can listen to for free?" He quickly changed the subject, "Young master, there are quite a few martial artists chasing after us."
"Should we give them a piece of our minds?"
Ling Shuo knew that any martial artist he could detect could not escape Chu Sheng's perception.
"Need not.
After leaving Zhenyue City, Chu Sheng discovered that these people were following him. They were all minor Kalami, and they could follow him if they wanted.
"Let's continue our journey; we'll stay at the Cloud Inn tonight!"
While at the Prince's Palace, Chu Sheng studied the route to Wudi City and made a meticulous plan. At their speed, there would be no problem for them to stay overnight at the Cloud Inn.
