85: Dragnet, sea of fire and sword
As long as there are enough people.
They will always be able to exhaust the Zhang Family’s strong cultivators to death.
This suggestion seemed foolish.
But in reality, it was the only viable method.
Yang Ming pondered for a long time.
He decided to hire a group of death warriors.
He would have them obey his commands.
And train them into assassins in a short period of time.
Thinking of assassins.
Yang Ming then thought of hiring assassins.
And hiring strong cultivators.
After seeking instructions from Yang Yi.
He used a large amount of the Yang family’s money to purchase death warriors.
Assassins, and some people willing to risk their lives.
Whether they were death warriors, assassins, or people risking their lives.
They could kill for money.
But they were not foolish.
Most people, after learning that the Yang family intended to deal with the Zhang Family.
Would not risk their lives, even for money.
However, there were also some people who only had money in their eyes.
So, within a short period of time.
Yang Ming still hired a large group of assassins.
This group of people lay in wait in various corners of the Yang family.
As soon as Yang Ming gave the order.
They would swarm forward.
And dismember the Zhang Family members with chaotic blades.
While Yang Ming was making preparations.
Zhong Mingyi also returned from Dragon Tiger City.
And brought back a large number of people.
The strength of this group of people varied, some strong, some weak.
The weak ones were ordinary people.
The strong ones were at the Life and Death Realm.
His father also came.
The City Lord was arranged to stay at the Yang family.
Zhong Mingyi, on the other hand, stayed in Hall of Seeking Talents day and night.
To oversee things.
Two days later.
People from the Zhang Family arrived in Tian Yuan City.
The city was bustling with excitement.
Some people, to welcome the Zhang Family.
Set off firecrackers at the city gate.
The Zhang Family members walked on the street.
Feeling quite surprised.
The Yang family was a native Family of Tian Yuan City.
Originally, they should have had a good relationship with the people of Tian Yuan City.
But now.
It seemed they were not well-liked.
Zhang Ao Xuan chuckled from the side.
“Our Zhang Family’s destruction of the Yang family this time.”
“Is to eliminate harm for the people.”
“It is to act on behalf of the heavens.”
Look how much the people around welcome us.”
Steward Gong laughed heartily.
Thinking to himself.
This was truly a first.
In the past, when a certain Family was annihilated.
The streets were deserted.
Let alone people.
There wasn’t even a dog.
Today was truly unusual.
To describe it as a welcoming crowd.
Was not an exaggeration at all.
Before they even reached the Yang family.
A sharp arrow, with the sound of tearing through the air.
Suddenly shot down at Steward Gong’s feet.
A white cloth was attached to the arrow.
Zhong Mingyi bent down and picked up the arrow.
Looking at the words written on the white cloth.
“Please go to Hall of Seeking Talents.”
Breaking the arrow in two.
Steward Gong waved his large hand.
“To Hall of Seeking Talents.”
The group marched grandly towards Hall of Seeking Talents.
People on the road, upon hearing this news.
Whispered among themselves.
Some loudly reminded the Zhang Family members.
“Some time ago, Hall of Seeking Talents was recruiting soldiers and buying horses.”
“The person in charge is Zhong Mingyi.”
“You must be careful.”
“Thank you for your concern.
Steward Gong was in a good mood.
He replied to the person who spoke.
A cold sneer in his heart.
Does our Zhang Family still need your concern.
You should just live your own life well.
A starved camel is still bigger than a horse.
Even if the Zhang Family were to be destroyed one day.
You still wouldn’t catch up to the Zhang Family.
Upon arriving at Hall of Seeking Talents.
A large crowd of onlookers had already gathered near Hall of Seeking Talents.
Inside Hall of Seeking Talents, it was completely silent.
As if there was no one inside.
The originally bustling crowd, after the Zhang Family arrived.
Also suddenly fell silent.
Everyone silently looked into Hall of Seeking Talents.
Unsure what mechanisms or traps were hidden inside.
Steward Gong looked towards the wide-open doors of Hall of Seeking Talents.
He coldly looked up at the plaque of Hall of Seeking Talents.
He gave a cold chuckle.
“Who will go and take down the plaque of Hall of Seeking Talents for me?”
As soon as his voice fell.
A servant of the Zhang Family stepped out.
This person was Gong Jiu.
“I’ll do it.”
With the sound of his voice.
Gong Jiu had already flown onto the plaque.
He grabbed the plaque with one hand.
And pulled back forcefully.
Wanting to pull the plaque down.
But just as his hand exerted force.
Several streaks of Sword Qi suddenly burst forth from within the door.
The Sword Qi seemed to have eyes.
Originally, they were thrusting outwards.
But when they reached outside the door.
They suddenly curved upwards.
Stabbing directly at Gong Jiu, who was in the air.
Gong Jiu was startled.
He had no choice but to let go.
And lightly landed on the ground.
His gaze intently fixed on the inside of the door.
Five people walked out from inside the door.
Each person held a sword.
“So, it’s you.”
A sinister smile appeared on Gong Jiu’s lips.
He knew these five people.
Five years ago, they had annihilated the Man Family of Linghu Mountain.
These five people were the five who escaped.
“It’s good that you recognize us.”
“Today, we shall avenge our Family members.”
“Just the five of you?”
Gong Jiu shook his head.
His palms flashed.
And he struck at the five people.
Subsequently.
The six people began to fight.
The five people cooperated tacitly.
Their longswords danced like the wind.
For a moment.
Gong Jiu was also helpless against them.
But Gong Jiu was not anxious at all.
Because the strength of these five people was not as good as his own.
Defeating them was only a matter of time.
After fighting for about half an incense stick’s time.
An aged voice suddenly came from within Hall of Seeking Talents.
“Come back.”
The five people exchanged glances.
Each released a streak of Sword Qi.
Forcing Gong Jiu back.
Without a word.
They directly entered Hall of Seeking Talents.
The people outside looked at each other.
Many cursed loudly.
Cursing these five people for fleeing in a cowardly manner.
Cursing them for lacking martial Dao spirit.
Just then.
The aged voice came from within the hall again.
“If you want to destroy the Yang family.
“First destroy Hall of Seeking Talents.”
“I am waiting for you in Hall of Seeking Talents.”
Upon hearing this.
Gong Jiu was the first to rush in.
As soon as he entered.
He was sent flying out by a terrifying aura.
Seeing this scene.
Everyone was greatly shocked.
They hadn’t even seen anyone inside.
Yet Gong Jiu was sent flying out.
Presumably, there was a master inside.
Steward Gong slightly frowned.
He asked Gong Jiu what happened inside.
Gong Jiu, covered in dust, shook his head.
“As soon as I went in, I was sent flying out by a force.”
Zhang Zitian and Zhang Yanchen showed expressions of surprise.
They had fought with people from the Yang family before.
According to what they knew.
The most powerful people in the Yang family were Yang Ming and Zhong Mingyi.
But with the abilities of these two people.
It was impossible to easily send Gong Jiu flying out with just an aura.
Could it be that the Yang family had some hidden master?
Could the person who attacked be Yang Yi?
But.
This was also unlikely.
Although Hall of Seeking Talents was the Yang family’s territory.
The Yang family’s main base was at the Yang family residence.
As the Family Head, Yang Yi.
It was impossible for him to come here to oversee things.
But besides him.
Who else could it be?
Gong Jiu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly thought of someone.
“I heard that the City Lord of Dragon Tiger City has already reached the Earth Star Realm.”
“Could it be him?”
Steward Gong’s face darkened.
He looked into Hall of Seeking Talents and said:
“Can a mere City Lord beat you into such a sorry state?”
Gong Jiu remained silent.
Besides the City Lord of Dragon Tiger City.
He really couldn’t think of anyone else.
Suddenly.
A flash of inspiration struck him.
He said in surprise:
“Could it be someone from Duobao Pavilion?”
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone’s faces changed dramatically.
If someone from Duobao Pavilion were involved.
Then it would be troublesome.
