“Argh!”
Jian Zhang stabbed the sword multiple times into the body of someone who was already defenseless.The hall that was once been majestic and luxurious had now turned into a bloody field. Several bodies lay lifeless. The head guard’s head rolled out of nowhere. And Jian Zhang continued to hunt down the remaining guards.The situation was chaotic. Only a few ministers remained. They looked at Jian Zhang with appraising eyes. However, some of them were not Jian Zhang’s supporters.“Stop it!” A youth jumped up and stood behind Jian Zhang.That young man was Genji Zhang, the eldest prince born from the womb of a concubine. Currently, he occupies the position of crown prince. He had dominant influence in the kingdom. All his supporters were predicted him to be the successor of the emperor.“If I don’t stop, what will you do?” Jian Zhang turned his head. “Are you going to kill me?” Jian Zhang’s gaze challenging his older brother.“How dare he challenge Genji!” Jun Zhang, the third son, commented. “He will only find his death!”They were brothers, but neither of them acted like brothers. People who are called brothers only side with brothers who provide benefits.“He had been missing for 4 years. Looks like he’s still as stupid as he used to be.” Lei Zhang, the second son, also commented.Only a level 5 or 6 martial artist could match the eldest brother’s strength. Genji Zhang was one of the 5th level martial arts masters in the Zhang kingdom. Someone like Jian Zhang was nothing. He couldn’t possibly match Genji’s strength.Genji Zhang swung his sword. He accepted the challenge.“Please stop Prince Genji, Your Majesty.” Xue Fen pleaded.Everyone knows Genji is a level 5 martial artist. Wouldn’t it be worth it if Genji fought her son?There are 9 levels of martial arts.Level 9 can be called the God Level. But in history, there was only one person who was to reach level 9, and after 100 million years later, no one had reached that level.Level 8, the most difficult level that is impossible for ordinary humans to achieve. There are two people who are to break through this level, and they are people in the Western Hemisphere. The kingdom is known as the Winter Kingdom.And for levels 7 to 1, those who are persistent and thirsty for strength can achieve it. Emperor Gao Zhang was a level 7 martial artist, the highest level in his country.“Your Majesty.” Xue Fen called out in a frustrated voice. “This fight is not worth it. How can Jian Zhang go against Prince Genji, Your Majesty?”However, Gao Zhang looked calm. He didn’t seem to care about the level difference.“Jian Zhang started this fight first. Then he must solve the problem himself." The emperor said like he wanted Jian Zhang lost.The fight between the two sons will show who is worthy of the position of crown prince.Seeing the panicked and worried look on the empress’s face made Li Wei smile. Her son is the strongest young man in the kingdom. Li Wei knows that very well.“I’ll send you back to hell again!” With a stomp on the ground, Genji Zhang ran as fast as lightning. A speed that the naked eye cannot see.Genji Zhang is the pride of the kingdom, the pride of Gao Zhang. Even though Jian Zhang was also the emperor’s son, it was Genji who had the emperor’s full support.Genji Zhang swung his sword without hesitation. Jian Zhang suddenly made a move. The man was moving fast, so fast that Genji Zhang couldn’t see him, even though Jian Zhang was in front of him.Those in the room were flabbergasted. Jian Zhang’s speed exceeded that of a level 5 martial expert.Xue Fen who was worried earlier was stunned to see her son. Then she remembered what she said 4 years ago.‘Come back and be the strongest man in the country.’Did her son really keep that promise?Jian Zhang suddenly appeared from above the air. He swung his sword vigorously. The gust of wind that blew made light objects fly.The pressure generated by the swing of Jian Zhang’s hand was so strong made Genji Zhang’s body feel heavy and difficult to move.Genji Zhang is in a dangerous position. How could he not notice that Jian Zhang was there? Jian Zhang’s movements were very smooth and thin until he couldn’t figure it out.The moves performed by Jian Zhang were unfamiliar with martial arts from the Zhang kingdom.Li Wei who thought her son would bring victory stood up. She looked at Gao Zhang worriedly.“Your Majesty, please stop this fight. This is unfair. We don’t know Jian Zhang’s strength.” She begged.Previously, Xue Fen’s request was ignored, but apparently not’s request. Gao Zhang suddenly stood up, giving orders in his heavy voice.“Stop Jian Zhang!” he ordered.Hearing the order, Jian Zhang turned his sword on the blunt side. However, his father’s orders didn’t really stop him.*Crack*The sound of bones breaking was loud and painful.“Argh!” Genji Zhang screamed in pain.He immediately lay on the floor, clutching his broken shoulder. While Jian Zhang was staring at his father, he heard everything. His father ignored his mother’s request.People stared in disbelief at Jian Zhang. What power did Jian Zhang use against Genji Zhang? What level is Jian Zhang currently at?“Genji, My Son!” Li Wei shouted as she approached her son. “Call the royal healer,” she orders. She looked hatefully at Jian Zhan.Xue Fen also walked over to her son worriedly. She touched her son to check if he was injured.“I’m fine, Mother.”Jian Zhang smiled widely as he wiped his slightly sweaty face. The powerful scent of blood made Jian Zhang slightly dizzy. The hunger that had been gone before suddenly reappeared.Xue Fen looked at Jian Zhang. There was a strangeness in her son’s irises, which had turned dark red to black. The original color of her son’s eyes.“You must be punished, Jian Zhang!” Li Wei shouted. She did not accept Jian Zhang’s actions.“I’ve asked to stop this match, but Your Honour didn’t say a word. It’s not my son’s fault!” Xue Fen defended her son.Li Wei silence. No one knows how this will turn out. Her son being defeated by Jian Zhang was beyond her expectation. But Li Wei will not stop, she will do whatever it takes to punish Jiang.Li Wei ran into the emperor’s arms. “Your Majesty, do justice to my son.”“He had injured his own brother. This is a terrible crime, Your Majesty.” Li Wei continued to blame Jian Zhang.Whereas during the match earlier, Genji Zhang also did not hesitate to swing his sword at Jian Zhang.“Meet me in the punishment room,” Gao Zhang ordered his son.“I know that young man!” Gu Chai who was watching closely, finally remembered that day.Lei Zhang and Jun Zhang looked at the young man. The three of them are close friends.“He’s the young man I told you about a few days ago." Gu Chai said.The young man who broke one of his servant’s arms and possessed unusual strength.“Really?” Lei Zhang’s brows pulled up, unsure of Gu Chai’s words.“Of course, I can’t be wrong! I can recognize him well, even though the appearance of the two is very different!”“Who taught you such a great sword technique, my son?” Xue Fen was curious. She had never seen such a sword technique.“A master swordsman who taught me, mom. But he never mentioned his name. His sword technique is indeed very different from the Zhang kingdom.” Jiang Zheng lied.This was not a sword technique but because his strength is not like a normal human. He had more power than humans. And actually, he only knew how to slash swords.“Has he also taken care of you all this time?” Xue Fen asked again.Jian Zhang just nodded. There was no way he could admit that all this time he had lived alone. His mother would definitely feel guilty.Xue Fen looked proud. Jian Zhang used to be very weak and always despised by people, but now her son is different from the past. Her son could even defeat Genji Zhang who was a level 5 martial arts. But behind her happiness Xue Fen was worried. Jian Zhang noticed the mother’s changing expression. The shady face that gave the calm now looked worried.
Jian Zhang's eyelids opened. The figure of a shady-faced and gentle woman was sitting next to him."Are you awake?" Her sweet voice asked. Jiao Zhang felt movement from her brother's body. She thought Jian Zhang must have woken up."Give me five minutes," said Jian Zhang.Jiao Zhang smiled sweetly. She stroked her brother's head lovingly."You can't do it. Get up, you must meet His Majesty immediately." Jian Zhang's eyes showed deep hatred. His breath changed upon hearing that person's name."Did something happen while I was sleeping?" he asked with a suspicious tone. "Of course not. What are you thinking?" Jiao Zhang smiled faintly. "You've been sleeping all day. Aren't you tired?"Jian Zhang was silent for a moment, staring at his sister who was clearly hiding something from him."Okay." Jian Zhang finally agreed. He got out of bed and looked at Jiao Zhang with a suspicious look. His sister couldn't fool him. Jian Zhang could see the clear worry in Jiao Zhang's eyes."I've also pr
“How can he still be alive?” Li Wei feeling anxious. Jian Zhang’s presence would definitely ruin her plans. “Calm down, Your Highness,” said Li Wei’s trusted maid, Qiu Fa.Li Wei still couldn’t calm down. Genji is beyond hope. And the second son, Wen Zhang, was not too dependable at all. Her second son’s reputation was too bad. He was always getting into trouble with cases of abuse against women. What must Li Wei do to maintain her plan? “We only have one hope, Your Majesty.” Feng Chai spoke up. He is the minister who supports Li Wei.“We have to change Young Master Wen’s reputation in order to nominate him as Crown Prince.” Li Wei agreed, but how to tame her wild son? There was no other way. Li Wei had to force her second son to become the crown prince or all her dreams would be gone before they came true."Your Highness need not worry about that. Let me take care of the second Prince's matters."“What if he brings trouble?” Li Wei looked at Feng Chai. ***In the forbidden fore
Tian He had just finished training when he encountered someone who looked suspicious. At first he thought the person was an intruder, but after noticing, it turned out that what he saw was prince Jian Zhang. And why was prince Jian Zhang acting like an intruder?Jian Zhang jumped down. Tian He defended with his careful eyes. Jian Zhang’s clothes were wet, even though there was no rain today.“Good evening, Jian Zhang,” he greeted. In the past, Tian He didn’t pay attention to Jian Zhang. In his eyes, this prince was just a kid who didn’t have martial arts talent. But now, his mind changed. Even when they fought together, he was sure Jiang Zhang had not fully unleashed his strength. There is still a secret to its power.“What is the Prince doing at this time?” Tian He asked curiously. “Just taking a walk, and accidentally slipped into the lake." Jian Zhang excused. Tian He did not suspect the slightest bit, he let Jian Zhang go after that. The next day...The sudden death of the f
The screams turned into thunderous laughter. Jian Zhang glared at everyone who had laughed at him earlier.“ARE YOU CRAZY?!” He stepped straight for the holy priest. Without warning, he directly kicked the priest’s body.“Are you sure what you threw was holy water, huh? It doesn’t feel like holy water. It tastes like salty water!” Jian Zhang grinned.How could that be?Everyone looks shocked. All the demons must have reacted with the holy water. But if the water didn’t react, that was a sign that Jian Zhang was a human.The enraged Jian Zhang immediately drew his sword, slashing everyone who entered without permission at his place.“Forgive us, Prince!”"Help! Help me!”“Run! Don't get in my way!”Terrible screams in the silent night frightened anyone who heard it .Cheng Wu and Tian He who heard the screams immediately quickened their steps. Until they arrived at the courtyard of Xue Fen’s residence. They were instantly stunned to see a body that was no longer alive. Blood pooled in
The atmosphere was tense. Jian Zhang, who was injured by the holy water, thought quickly to protect the little priest and the two fellow priests.“Retreat!” Jian Zhang ordered.Zikui was silent for a moment. His heart was beating fast with fear until the demon in front of him raised his hand. It awakened Zikui, who was frozen in shock and fear.“Hey, little priest! Go to your stupid friends, or do you want to become food for these wolves?”Zikui ran towards his friends. Meanwhile, Jian Zhang stared intently at the wolves and groaned to intimidate the pack.Jian Zhang took a quick glance at the little priest, then focused on the enemy in front of him.“I will distract these wolves. And you guys leave this place immediately!” Jian Zhang commanded again.With his remaining strength, Jian Zhang jumped into the center of the wolves. The wolf pack immediately surrounded him with hateful eyes.“Run!”The wolf pack chased after Jian Zhang. He ran as far as he could to give the young priests t
“Has Jian Zhang been found yet?” Xue Fen looked worried. It had been two days since Jian Zhang disappeared, and no one knew where her son was.“I’m sorry, Your Highness, our men are still searching for Prince Jian Zhang,” said Kang Shen, one minister who sided with Xue Fen.“We have nothing to worry about,” a minister from the Qiao clan chimed in. “Prince Jian Zhang is not a weakling. Haven’t we already seen how great the prince himself is?” He said proudly.Jian Zhang’s strength had circulated throughout the Zhang kingdom. The young man defeated Genji, who was at a different level than him. This clearly showed that Jian Zhang was not as weak as he used to be. The young man had changed. And this was good news for all of Empress Xue Fen’s supporters.“But we must not take our enemies lightly,” Kang Shen said in a serious tone. “The attack four years ago is proof that we underestimated our enemy.”There was silence for a moment. Four years ago, they suffered a crushing defeat; the attac
“Guards!” Jian Zhang shouted loudly, but not a single guard came, as if this attack was intentional.“Mom!” Jian Zhang used his body as a shield for Xue Fen. “Take cover behind me.”Memories of the past flashed back in Xue Fen’s mind. It seemed like only yesterday that Jian Zhang had called his mother with his little mouth, but this little boy was now her protector.Since when did Jian Zhang’s shoulders look big and masculine?Xue Fen couldn’t hold back her tears anymore. She was not crying out of fear, but because time had passed so quickly.The second arrow shot out again. Jian Zhang pulled his mother away. His position was unfavorable, he was an easy target.Jian Zhang thought quickly. There were three archers at the other end. He had to move faster than the arrows.Jian Zhang carried his mother’s body, gathered all his inner strength, and ran as fast as an arrow.“What happened?” The archers of the Night Shadow gasped at Jian Zhang’s movements.“Hurry, we must finish him off tonig
