Chapter 212 No need to send it anymore, you country bumpkin

"Yan Chu! You—"

She Zhijiu was incensed and terrified, pointing at Yan Chu, he said with a fierce but hollow tone:

"Do you think you can take on my entire Tongzhou Governors Mansion by yourself?"

"With so many of us swarming you, we might not necessarily fear you!"

"Oh? Is that so?"

Yan Chu sneered, looking around the front courtyard of the Tongzhou Governors Mansion with indifference, he asked calmly:

"Is there anyone who wants to swarm me along with Lord She?"

"Step out now!"

Hearing Yan Chu's words, the many Jianghu people present looked at one another and all retreated unconsciously.

Yan Chu's notoriety was well-known in the Jianghu.

Below the Rank of Earth, few were Yan Chu's match. Although the forces behind them were not weak, they could not compare to those on the Earth Rank.

It was rumored that everyone who had fought Yan Chu had died...

Those who didn't die were only alive because they had offered up their wives and daughters, becoming fellow associates of Great Hero Yan...

"Lord Governor, this is a matter between you and Great Hero Yan, we won't foolishly get involved!"

A voice suddenly came from the crowd. Everyone looked closely and realized it was Elder Meng Jin of the Bixiao Sect.

The Bixiao Sect was a major sect in Haizhou Prefecture, with three Supreme Grandmasters sitting in the sect, no weaker than the Tongzhou Governors Mansion.

Following Meng Jin's lead, several other not-so-weak major forces also spoke up.

"Lord She, farewell!"

"Everyone, please do as you wish. I, Lin, will head to the city gate to see what is happening!"

"..."

The remaining Jianghu people watched as several major forces left one after another, but they dared not move, fearing She Zhijiu's resentment.

Of course, it was impossible to make them besiege Yan Chu!

Just kidding, if you, Lord She, dare not move, do you expect us to go up?

As Yan Chu's reputation rose, his grudges with many major forces also became known.

The Tongzhou Governor and the Hidden Sword Palace were two of them.

It was said that they had repeatedly sent people to Cangzhou Prefecture to deal with Yan Chu. Given Yan Chu's pettiness, conflict between them was only a matter of time.

It was just that no one expected the other party to choose this time.

At the celebration of Governor She Zhijiu marrying off his daughter.

And to make the other party his convenient father-in-law, was he planning to steal a woman from the First Prince?

Yan Chu really had a lot of nerve!!

"Audacious!"

At this moment, a shrill voice rang out. It was a ceremonial official in the wedding procession, an old eunuch from the First Prince's mansion, who sternly rebuked:

"Blade Demon Yan Chu, you traitorous villain!"

"Daring to disrupt the First Prince's wedding, you are truly tired of living!"

Pfft!

As soon as his voice fell, Yan Chu shot out a saber finger, and the man's whole body was sliced into a bloody mist by the Saber Qi.

【Killed a Great Grandmaster, very gratifying, EXP +30000】

"You hermaphrodite with a rotten ass, I hate people like you the most!"

Yan Chu retracted his finger expressionlessly.

Silence!

A silence so deep a needle drop could be heard!

Everyone present could see that the old eunuch was a Great Grandmaster, yet he died without even making a sound.

This caused everyone present to retreat wildly, fearing to be associated with the people of the Tongzhou Governors Mansion.

Still others spoke up:

"Great Hero Yan, we are just Lord She's guests!"

"We won't get involved in your business, we are just watching the excitement..."

"I'm not even watching the excitement anymore, farewell everyone!"

"..."

At this moment, these people couldn't care less about offending the Tongzhou Governors Mansion, and most of them left, appearing in the distance to watch from afar.

As for the rest, they were all die-hard loyalists of the Tongzhou Governors Mansion and the First Prince's wedding guards. They all looked at Yan Chu as if facing a great enemy, waiting for She Zhijiu to speak.

She Zhijiu's eyelids twitched wildly; he hadn't even seen how Yan Chu attacked.

Could the gap in strength between the two sides be this large?

"Brother Qin, quickly send a message to the Old Palace Master!"

She Zhijiu whispered to Qin Hexuan beside him, but saw Qin Hexuan's face as dark as water, holding a dim jade talisman in his hand, with no response from it at all.

Yan Chu grinned and said:

"Don't bother sending it, you bumpkin!"

"While you were discussing how to deal with me here, your little brothers from the Hidden Sword Palace have already been taken care of by me!"

"Yan Chu, you are talking nonsense!"

Qin Hexuan naturally wouldn't believe it and roared towards the city gate:

"Eunuch Qiu, Blade Demon Yan Chu is here!!!"

He estimated that his Master, Leng Hetong, must have been delayed by something at the Sword Palace, which was why he hadn't responded to him.

But with Eunuch Qiu here today, with their combined strength, Yan Chu might not necessarily escape unscathed.

He could finally confirm now that the warning from his Sword Heart just now was because Yan Chu was hiding in the dark, and the other party only dared to show himself after seeing Eunuch Qiu leave.

Qin Hexuan's voice rolled like thunder, and Eunuch Qiu, who was confronting the monk Awakening to emptiness at the city gate, heard it and his expression changed slightly.

He did not act rashly, but looked coldly at the mysterious young monk in front of him and said:

"Nalanda Temple, why don't you stay properly in the Western Regions instead of entering my Great Jin Dynasty?"

Nalanda Temple was a top-tier major temple in the Western Regions, a powerful force of the same level as Qingyang Palace and Hanging Temple, which even the entire Great Jin Imperial Court had to treat with caution.

Furthermore, it was rumored that the Nalanda Temple was the one supporting the rebel army of Xue Bai.

Compared to Nalanda Temple, Yan Chu was not that important.

The monk in front of him was unfathomable; perhaps even those at the forefront of the Earth Rank might not be his match.

However, the monk Awakening to emptiness glanced at Eunuch Qiu, his clear eyes looking towards the Tongzhou Governors Mansion. He chanted a Buddhist name and chuckled:

"The target has appeared, Benefactor Qiao, let's go!"

After saying this, golden light bloomed under his feet, as if shrinking the ground into an inch, he directly ignored Eunuch Qiu and headed towards the Tongzhou Governors Mansion.

The distance of dozens of miles was covered in just a few steps.

When Awakening to emptiness slowly descended from the sky into the front courtyard of the Tongzhou Governors Mansion, everyone who had been facing a great enemy felt their mood inexplicably calm down, as if smoothed over by something.

Yan Chu raised an eyebrow and looked at the young monk.

"amitabha!"

At the same moment, the monk Awakening to emptiness also turned his head to look over, with a smile on his lips:

"This must be Benefactor Yan, known as the Blade Demon, right?"

"Truly extraordinary strength, and a magnificent aura!"

Yan Chu nodded and said:

"Who are you?"

"This humble monk is a Disciple of Nalanda Temple, with the dharma name Awakening to emptiness. Today, I am invited by Heavenly King Xue to specifically come and liberate Benefactor Yan!"

Wow—

The whole place was in an uproar, everyone was shocked.

What was shocking was not what the monk said, but his identity.

From Nalanda Temple? That was a truly top-tier power in the world today, whose Disciples were transcendent and rarely stepped into the Jianghu.

And the name Awakening to emptiness, many people present had heard of it; he was the contemporary Buddhist Son.

The Jianghu all knew that for a force of Nalanda Temple's level, its Disciples did not appear on the Number One Tower Under Heaven's ranking list.

But as the Buddhist Son of Nalanda Temple, his strength would definitely Rank near the top of the Earth Rank.

...

What? He was coming for Yan Chu?

She Zhijiu and Qin Hexuan heard Awakening to emptiness's words and exchanged a look, both seeing the joy in each other's eyes.

One was the unfathomable Buddhist Son of Nalanda Temple.

The other was the Devil King of the saber, whose notoriety filled the Jianghu.

If the two of them fought to the death, that was exactly what they wanted to see.

Swish!

At this moment, Eunuch Qiu also appeared in the front courtyard of the Tongzhou Governors Mansion, looking at Awakening to emptiness with full apprehension.

His own Thousand Threads Pull excelled in speed, yet it wasn't as good as the other party's?

This Buddhist Son was much stronger than he had imagined!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Several more sounds of flying robes appeared, and "Suppress Three Mountains" Qiao Yan, "Burning Heaven Jiao Guest" Liao Tao, and others landed.

"It's the Blade Demon Yan Chu?!"

"The monk Awakening to emptiness's target is him?"

Eunuch Qiu and the others' expressions shifted slightly; this was the best outcome for them.

The Western Regions were already opponents of the Great Jin, and Yan Chu was a person of the Empress Dowager's faction. As people of the First Prince's faction, they were very happy to see the two of them both suffer losses.

Behind She Zhijiu, Zheng Wan's pretty face turned pale instantly.

She had already had intimate contact with Yan Chu; to say she had any feelings for him now would be pure nonsense.

However, she didn't want to see anything happen to Yan Chu.

If something happened to Yan Chu, what would she do?

Venerable Wen Jian and Eunuch Qiu had looked at her with strange expressions; she had already noticed it, and now she felt unsettled.

"Aunt Zheng, what's wrong?"

She Manman lifted her red bridal veil, her exquisite face showing some excitement.

Although today was her big wedding day, she wished something would happen to ruin the wedding. Seeing this scene now, she was just watching the excitement without fear of it being too big.

Noticing Zheng Wan's expression, she couldn't help but feel a bit curious.

"No... nothing!"

Zheng Wan hurriedly shook her head,

"I just feel that the Blade Demon and the others coming to cause trouble on your big day and saying such things is really too impolite!"

She Manman pouted; she could tell that Zheng Wan was not telling the truth and was being insincere.

However, she felt it didn't matter, and thought to herself:

"If the Blade Demon can survive today, it seems my father will have to be this convenient father-in-law whether he wants to or not!"

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Everyone in the world said the Blade Demon Yan Chu was terrifyingly strong; being his woman, it seemed, wouldn't be bad?

It would be much better than a useless prince!

Just as everyone present had subtle expressions and varying thoughts, Yan Chu spoke up, asking curiously:

"I have many enemies, but I don't seem to have offended Heavenly King Xue, right?"

The monk Awakening to emptiness shook his head gently,

"This humble monk cannot say much about this!"

"Benefactor Yan has committed many killings; going to the Western Heaven today to see the Buddha is a matter of great joy for everyone!"

"Hehe!"

Yan Chu shook his head and laughed,

"Why does everyone think they can kill me? How can people like you ever change?"

"Forget it!"

"After I kill you, I will personally go to Liangzhou Prefecture to see how many heads Heavenly King Xue has on his neck, daring to lay a hand on me!"

Boom!

As soon as his voice fell, Yan Chu violently threw the wine cup in his hand.

It was clearly just a small wine cup the size of a palm, but after flying through the air, it seemed to turn into a great mountain, crashing towards the monk Awakening to emptiness.

"Retreat quickly!"

Eunuch Qiu and the others' expressions changed drastically.

In their eyes, this wine cup became infinitely tall and infinitely large, as if it could smash the entire Tongzhou Governors Mansion into pieces in one go!

This was caused by Yan Chu's divine intent reaching a certain level, affecting the perception of everyone around.

Qin Hexuan's heart raced, remembering what Yan Chu had just said.

He wouldn't have really wiped out the Hidden Sword Palace, would he?

"amitabha!"

The monk Awakening to emptiness chanted a Buddhist name again, pushing out a palm flatly. A golden " 卍" symbol kept rotating in his palm, steadily catching the wine cup and landing it in his palm.

Rumble!

The ground he was standing on disintegrated into countless thick black cracks, spreading in all directions, and all the buildings in the front courtyard began to crack and collapse.

In the eyes of the people who had already retreated far away, it felt like the world was spinning.

This force was not only discharged into the ground by Awakening to emptiness, but even into the air. The people affected were all extremely nauseous, disgusted and wanting to vomit.

"Benefactor Yan has such powerful force!"

The monk Awakening to emptiness's smile did not change at all,

"Benefactor, also take a palm from this humble monk!"

Swish!

The monk Awakening to emptiness leaped up and ascended into the high sky.

The sunlight happened to fall behind him, overlapping with the Buddha light behind his head, making him appear even more like a holy Buddha descending to the world.

Boom!

He struck out with a palm, and a huge golden palm print descended from the sky. The thick shadow covered a radius of more than ten miles, enveloping the entire Tongzhou Governors Mansion and several surrounding streets.

"What? What is the monk Awakening to emptiness planning to do?"

The people who had already retreated far away, looking at the huge palm print falling from the sky, almost stopped breathing.

All of them were under the cover of this palm print. They wanted to retreat, but found that the air around them was imprisoned, and they couldn't avoid it at all.

Was Awakening to emptiness planning to kill them all with one palm?

"Don't be afraid!"

Eunuch Qiu said with a solemn expression:

"This is Nalanda Temple's Immovable Like a Mountain Seal, specifically aimed at Yan Chu, you all don't need to panic!"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked up at the sky.

Sure enough, they saw that the palm print, which was originally more than ten miles large, began to shrink as it fell, becoming a few miles in radius.

Further down, it became a few hundred meters, and finally became a golden palm print the size of an adult's hand, slapping down directly onto the top of Yan Chu's head.

This all takes a long time to say, but it actually happened in an instant.

This palm seemed to absorb all the Origin Qi in the surrounding heaven and earth; even the air became gray, with only the golden light of the palm print becoming increasingly brilliant.

Everyone could feel the terror of this palm.

It could definitely easily snap off mountain peaks and cut off great rivers.

"Hmph!"

Yan Chu snorted coldly, the cloud cluster in his palm thick, he also struck out with a palm fiercely, from bottom to top.

Cloud Dispelling Palm, Tearing Sky and Dispelling Clouds!

This palm, carrying powerful tearing force, tore the Immovable Like a Mountain Seal print apart. Countless turbulent Origin Qi created a huge shockwave, crashing and spreading in all directions.

The entire Tongzhou Governors Mansion completely became a ruin.

"Ah—"

"Help!!"

"Retreat!!!"

Some unlucky people were hit by the overflowing Qi energy and instantly exploded into bloody mists. The others' expressions changed drastically, and they hurriedly retreated wildly again, backing off more than twenty miles.

Boom!

In the large cloud of dust that was kicked up, Yan Chu stepped on the ground, and his whole body turned into a stream of light, soaring straight into the high sky. Countless finger shadows pointed out, the air emitted bursts of explosions, and the thick Buddha light around Awakening to emptiness was all forced back by these finger shadows.

Snap!

Awakening to emptiness put his hands together, golden light shone brightly on his body, and a Dharma Image of a Wisdom King appeared behind him.

The finger shadows landed on it, emitting huge booming sounds of thud, thud, thud.

Ripples were shaken out in the high sky, and even the light falling into it was distorted.

Awakening to emptiness flew backward, the yellow and blue True Qi colliding and clashing, quickly moving away from the Tongzhou Governors Mansion, passing over the sky of Tongzhou city, and turning into two rainbow lights that disappeared into the city one after another.

"They have left the city!"

The people of the Tongzhou Governors Mansion watched the two disappear into the horizon, and many of them still had looks of shock on their faces.

Looking at the two of them, they were just testing the waters and hadn't used their real skills, yet they had razed the Tongzhou Governors Mansion to the ground, and many unlucky people were buried in the ruins.

"Should we follow them to watch?"

Someone asked.
