My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 80 Tianjiao
"Huang Tian?" Zhang Yu frowned. "Who is he, and why would the sect want to kill him?"

During this period, in order to avoid being captured, he kept a low profile and was not very familiar with the outside world. As far as he knew, the county and town guards had never had a trial centurion named Huang Tian.

Knowing that he was out of touch with the information, Fang He quickly recounted Huang Tian's deeds.

"One realm every ten days, and three realms broken through in a single month?!"

Zhang Yu's expression suddenly changed. "Did he take some kind of miraculous medicine or elixir?"

You should know that he spent nearly thirty years honing his qi and blood before he was able to break through to the sixth rank. Even so, he was already considered to have above-average talent. Many people practice martial arts hard their whole lives but are stuck at the lower three ranks, unable to even touch the middle three ranks. But Huang Tian was able to enter the seventh rank in just thirty days!
The gap is just too big!

It was almost unbelievable to him; unless he had taken the precious medicine, he simply couldn't believe such a thing could happen.

Fang He shook his head: "I don't know about that, but I don't think so. He's just a son born to a concubine, and he's fallen out with the Huang family. How could he possibly get a precious pill? Not to mention, even if he sold the entire Huang family, he might not be able to afford a pill that could help someone break through three realms without damaging their potential."

Furthermore, his comprehension is exceptionally high; he can master ordinary martial arts techniques after just a glance. Such talent is astonishing and poses a tremendous threat, which is why the sect wanted to eliminate him as soon as possible.

Zhang Yu frowned: "Killing him in a one-on-one situation might not be that difficult, but he's just a seventh-rank martial artist who has just broken through. I can kill him with a flick of my wrist."

But since he's such a genius, the Zhenwu Guard will likely send someone to protect him. I'm afraid that if I fail to kill him, I'll be trapped by his protectors and won't even be able to escape."

Baoqingfang is the main base of Zhenwuwei. If they want to kill Huang Tian, ​​they will surely alarm many experts from the government. At that time, they will be surrounded and there will be no way to escape.

"Don't worry, I'm not asking you to kill him right now. Let's find out about his situation first. We'll wait for the people sent by the sect to arrive before we make our move together."

"Who will the sect send?"

"There should be two fifth-rank martial artists and several sixth-rank martial artists. However, they are not officially members of our Flying Goose Sect. Instead, they are martial artists that the sect has recently recruited and given the title of external affairs stewards. So you probably don't know them, Senior Brother."

Since news of Zhang Yu's assassination of the county magistrate and county lieutenant spread, the Flying Hong Sect, although it promptly dismissed him as an outcast, was still inevitably affected to some extent.

So now they've become smarter. They no longer use their sect's stewards and disciples to assassinate government officials. Instead, they use elixirs, martial arts techniques, and divine weapons to recruit wandering martial artists and get them to do it.

In this way, even if these so-called external affairs stewards are caught, the sect can easily shirk responsibility, since those caught are martial arts practitioners, not disciples of the sect, and it is difficult for the authorities to blame them.

Fang He said regretfully, "It's only because the Zhenwu Guard and the Six Doors are keeping a close eye on things that a fourth-rank elder could have infiltrated the city and killed Huang Tian."

With numerous disciples from the five major sects, it's impossible for the authorities to keep an eye on them all. However, they can still keep track of the movements of fourth-rank elders and grandmaster-level supreme elders.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu's brows relaxed. "If two fifth-rank martial artists could work together, the chances of success would be much greater."

Two fifth-rank martial artists and several sixth-rank martial artists constitute a relatively strong force in the county city. Even if there are powerful figures secretly protecting them, the success rate of this force suddenly attacking an unsuspecting seventh-rank martial artist is still very high.

"Before the sect's deacon arrives in the county town, senior brother, don't rush to take action, but don't do nothing either. Try to find out what Huang Tian does every day, where he goes, and figure out his situation so you can see if you can find an opportunity to assassinate him."

Fang He instructed, "As for me, I will not meet you again after today. We will only communicate via secret letters. Remember to let me know when you make your move. I will try my best to create chaos in the city, giving you a chance to escape after killing." Often, killing is not difficult; the difficulty lies in escaping successfully.

“I know that if we don’t have time to escape the city, we will disguise ourselves and hide. There are so many people in the city, it won’t be easy for them to find us.”

Zhang Yu nodded, then urged, "The medicine has been delivered, and everything that needed to be said has been said. You should leave now."

Fang He chuckled, thinking that Zhang Yu had become a bit paranoid since being chased, but he still got up and left.

After he left, Zhang Yu stood in the room and pondered for a while. Suddenly, a clicking sound rang out, and his face slowly changed, turning into an ordinary, wooden face.

After disguising himself, he quickly packed his clothes and money, took some medicine and tonics, and calmly went downstairs. He followed the customers coming in and out of the restaurant, and with a few quick movements, he completely blended into the bustling crowd on the street, becoming indistinguishable from others.

Baoqingfang Hundred Household Office, Main Hall.

Turning his gaze away, Huang Tian pondered silently: "It seems that my talent has indeed attracted the attention of the sects, who want to get rid of me as soon as possible. However, Zhang Yu and the others alone pose no threat to me..."

With his current strength, he can easily suppress a fifth-grade martial artist and is not inferior to a fourth-grade martial artist. He is almost at the peak of Kunyun County!
Unless a grandmaster personally intervenes, no one can do anything to him. However, the grandmasters of the five major sects are too conspicuous and are being closely watched by the authorities, making it impossible for them to secretly infiltrate the county city.

Therefore, he didn't have much to worry about. He could either take down Zhang Yu directly, or wait for the Fei Hong Men's men to arrive before taking them down together. Alternatively, he could report the "intelligence" he had obtained about Zhang Yu of the Fei Hong Men to Xia Hong and let him take action. It would just be a little troublesome to explain the source of the intelligence.

After thinking for a while, he slowly exhaled.

"Don't worry about Zhang Yu or Fei Hong Sect for now. They can't make a move against me in the short term. As for me, it will only take me less than half a month to break through to the sixth rank. Once I break through, I will be able to easily suppress fourth-rank martial artists and even deal with grandmasters!"

Such strength is top-tier even in Kunyun County, and would be considered a powerful figure in the vast Qin Province. They would have far more freedom to act then!

Thinking this, he stepped down from his chair and stood in the hall. His body sank slightly, and he raised his hands like swimming dragons, slowly striking the Cloud Dragon Stance. Thunderous sounds resounded within his body, and his blood and qi circulated and boiled rapidly in his meridians. Waves of heat rose from his body.

The old clerk, who was recounting the situation at Baoqing Ward, paused upon seeing this and cautiously inquired, "Commander, shall I continue?"

"Go on, I'm listening."

A few words escaped his lips, Huang Tian closed his eyes, and began to breathe slowly and deliberately, taking three breaths in and one breath out in a very regular pattern.

"Yes Yes."

The old clerk responded twice and continued speaking, glancing furtively at Huang Tian as he secretly marveled:

'No wonder this newly appointed centurion broke through so quickly; he didn't waste a single moment, focusing solely on cultivation! When someone is already exceptionally talented, yet works far harder than ordinary people, how can anyone else possibly compare…'
