Chapter 112 Encounter

After Yun Chengzi finished shouting, he waited for a long time, but the camp remained quiet.

Only the guards at the camp gate stood on both sides, holding bows and crossbows and long spears, on guard.

The four ballistae in a row were quickly cocked when Yun Chengzi and his group appeared.

Lu Cheng had witnessed the power of this ballista before; it was beyond human resistance.

Even someone at the peak of body refinement must dodge when facing a crossbow bolt.

The four elders from Wenxin Peak who were traveling with them were all at the peak of the Body Refinement Realm, so they naturally understood the power of the ballista. Just as they were about to speak up, Yun Chengzi waved his hand to stop them.

Yun Chengzi was quite bold; seeing no response from the camp, he immediately knew that shouting wouldn't bring anyone back.

After waving his hand to stop the four elders, Yun Chengzi snorted coldly and slowly walked towards the camp gate.

"I'd like to see if they dare to fire their crossbows!"

The two squad leaders at the camp gate exchanged a glance, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

If Yun Chengzi had not presented his visiting card, the two would have ordered the crossbows to be fired without hesitation.

But if we accept the invitation now and then take action, it would mean breaking ties with the Dongyang Sect.

In Dongyang County, ordinary people may not know about the Dongyang Sect.

However, among martial artists and the Zhenwu Army, the significance of the Dongyang Sect is absolutely well known.

Therefore, the two platoon leaders guarding the gate did not dare to give the order immediately.

In the blink of an eye, Yun Chengzi had already covered half the distance.

He glanced at the gatekeepers ahead, a hint of disdain flashing across his lips.

Just then, a deep, powerful voice rang out from within the military camp: "Fire the crossbows!"

Upon hearing this, the soldiers behind the ballista slammed down their crossbows without hesitation.

With a "bang," four crossbow bolts, each as thick as an arm, instantly tore through the air and shot towards Yun Chengzi.

Yun Chengzi's eyes were bloodshot, and before he could even curse, he stomped his right foot hard on the ground.

"collapse!

'

The ground beneath his feet cracked instantly, and Yun Chengzi's figure blurred as he leaped into the air, dodging four crossbow bolts.

Behind Yun Chengzi, the four elders, along with Feng Shu and Wan Chuan, reacted in time.

The group either leaped up or rolled outwards to dodge.

But later on, those twenty disciples who were just there for show and to put on an air of grandeur didn't have such good strength.

Four crossbow bolts pierced through the crowd.

The disciple who was first hit by the crossbow bolt had a bloody hole the size of a bowl on his body.

The ones behind were like skewered candied hawthorns, with at least three figures hanging from them.

Twenty people were killed or injured in an instant, and fewer than five were left standing!

Yun Chengzi landed with a thud, turned around and saw this scene, his eyes instantly turning red.

"Good! How dare you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he clenched his fists and charged forward again.

Reaching the Zhenwu Army soldiers, he unleashed a flurry of punches, creating sonic booms in the air: "Die!"

boom!

After a thunderous roar, Yun Chengzi's figure was sent flying backward.

A spray of blood gushed out in mid-air.

"Pfft—Wow—"

After landing, the momentum continued, and he coughed up another mouthful of blood.

The four elders all paled and quickly formed a protective barrier in front of Yun Chengzi, looking towards the gate of the Zhenwu Army camp.

"Qi Refinement Realm! Who are you?"

Yun Chengzi struggled to his feet and asked in surprise.

A man in his forties, dressed in a blue cloth robe, stood in front of the guards of Zhenwu Camp.

With a calm expression: "Da Yun Zhen Wu Wei, General Ning Yuan, Shen Yi."

""

Having said that, he ignored Yun Chengzi and the others, and without turning his head, he shouted at the soldiers guarding the camp: "You are in charge of guarding the camp and giving warnings. If someone breaks into the camp and you do nothing, you should be executed according to military law!"

"Take him into custody for now, and we will deal with him later!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of soldiers rushed out of the camp and took away the pale-faced soldiers guarding the camp one by one.

Then, he turned to Yun Chengzi and said, "Forcibly entering Zhenwu Army is a crime worse than treason. Will you surrender yourselves or let me take action?"

Yun Chengzi has taken the medicine and his complexion has improved considerably.

Faced with Shen Yi's aggressive demeanor, despite knowing he was no match for her, he showed no sign of backing down.

Staring at Shen Yi, he said, "Does the Zhenwu Army really intend to make things difficult for my Dongyang Sect?"

Shen Yi shook his head: "The Zhenwu Army is responsible for guarding a place and maintaining order. What does it have to do with your martial arts sects?"

"But you, by barging directly into my camp, are guilty of an unforgivable offense."

Yun Chengzi stared at Shen Yi for a long while before slowly nodding: "Good, good Zhenwu Army, good Shen Yi, you just wait!"

When you're done, turn around and leave.

Three of the four elders quickly followed.

The remaining person stayed behind and directed the surviving disciples to begin collecting the corpses.

Shen Yi didn't stop her, and just stood at the camp gate watching, seemingly lost in thought.

After a while, the camp gate returned to silence.

Shen Yi sighed and returned to the camp.

Lu Cheng had witnessed the entire event and was reflecting on the vast difference in strength between the Body Refining Realm and the Qi Refining Realm when he suddenly heard Shen Yi's voice: "Boy, are you interested in helping the government maintain order in the county town?"

Ok?

Lu Cheng was somewhat confused.

Shen Yi sighed, "The days ahead will be turbulent. The Zhenwu Army has many soldiers, but few are truly skilled."

""

"When we encounter difficult people, I can't handle everything myself."

""

"I won't let you work for nothing. You'll get a reward of one hundred taels a day. If you catch any troublemakers, the price will be calculated separately."

One hundred taels a day is quite a lot.

Moreover, once you accept this job, it's like having a nominal post in the Zhenwu Army, and ordinary people would absolutely not dare to easily lay a hand on you.

But Lu Cheng's daily cultivation wasn't enough; where would he find the time to earn this money?

He could only shake his head: "Thank you for your kindness, General Shen, but Lu Cheng is currently in a critical period of cultivation and really has no time to patrol the streets."

Shen Yi didn't press the matter and nodded: "Strength and realm are ultimately the most important things. If you don't have time, then forget it."

""

"However, it's best not to go out these next few days, and it's also best not to return to the Dongyang Sect."

,

Even without Shen Yi's reminder, Lu Cheng could sense the tension.

He nodded and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Shen Yi.

Only after Yun Chengzi and his group had gone far away did they leave Zhenwu Camp.

Little did he know, someone had been watching him the whole time.

The watchers only left quietly after they had walked two streets away from Zhenwu Army.

After that, we continued without stopping, passing through more than twenty archways, and went straight into the "Ren" No. 1 archway.

Upon entering the gate, after walking less than ten steps, one arrives at a magnificent lacquered gate.

Looking at the courtyard wall, it is even taller and more imposing, stretching out all the way to the street corner.

If viewed from above, one can see that this single courtyard occupies a full third of the space of the "Ren" No. 1 archway.

The plaque above the gate reads the four large characters "Dongyang Sect".

Lu Cheng and the others were naturally aware that there was such a branch of the Dongyang Sect in the county town.

However, this area is managed by Zixia Peak.

Besides, I had a mission to complete, so I didn't stay here.

After the disciple who was keeping watch entered the courtyard, he told Feng Shu in detail about Lu Cheng's entry into and exit from Zhenwu Army.

Without saying a word, Feng Shu went to another room.

Inside the room, Yun Chengzi was practicing his internal energy to regulate his breathing.

The four Grand Elders of Wenxin Peak stood guard to the side, each with an indignant expression.

Feng Shu bowed to the four people and then stood aside, waiting for Yun Chengzi.

After a long while, Yun Chengzi finished his practice and looked at Feng Shu: "Junior Nephew Feng, what is it?"

""

Feng Shu stepped forward and said without the slightest emotion:

"Uncle-Master, a disciple just reported that Lu Cheng entered the Zhenwu Army this morning and stayed there for quite some time. He came out shortly after we left."

Yun Chengzi's face turned cold instantly.

A chilling glint appeared in his eyes as he sternly demanded, "Traitor! Where is he?"
