Chapter 2245 Demolition of the House

Zhu Rong Lingtian took the lead, following closely behind the Black-Clothed Man, sweeping his Divine Sense forward as he chased.

The Black-Clothed Man in front was completely covered from head to toe, even wearing a hood.

Moreover, an invisible force blocked his Divine Sense, preventing him from seeing the other party's face clearly.

It was clear that the other party, by stealing the dragon absorption stone, did not want anyone to know his identity.

And that person's speed was extremely fast; although he pushed his speed to the limit, he could only slowly close the distance, making it difficult to catch up in a short time.

One ran in front, three chased behind; the four people were like elusive ghosts, swiftly streaking across the night sky.

The Black-Clothed Man ran wildly, and in the blink of an eye, arrived in front of a tall mansion, directly leaping inside.

Inside the high walls, two guards were patrolling. Seeing someone intrude, they wanted to stop him, but unfortunately, the other party's speed was too fast; before they could react, the figure had already vanished.

Just then, three more followed closely behind.

The two guards immediately became enraged, drawing the long swords from their backs and shouting, "Audacious madman! Don't you know this is the residence of the Minister of War?"

They knew their Cultivation was not as strong as the intruders, but in the past, whenever they encountered such a situation, as long as they revealed their background, the other party would immediately flee in disgrace.

After all, the Minister of War held a high position and great power, also controlling military intelligence; ordinary Jianghu individuals dared not provoke him.

But this time, it was beyond their expectations. As the Sect Leader of Fentian Gate, how could Zhu Rong Lingtian put these two minor characters in his eyes?

With a flick of his sleeve, a ball of flame directly enveloped the two, then turned them into a pile of ashes.

However, just this slight delay allowed the Black-Clothed Man to disappear into the Minister's mansion, completely vanishing.

Such a big commotion here immediately caused the guards and Elder Cultivators of the Minister of War's residence to pour out, surrounding the three people.

In the study not far away, Yuan Dahua and Yuan Qihang were sitting by the bed, sipping tea.

Yuan Qihang excitedly said, "Father, we have already spread that news.

Do you think Ye will now be besieged by a group of Jianghu heroes and die without a burial place?"

Yuan Dahua smiled and nodded, "I just asked Elder Mu, and he said that the dragon absorption stone is definitely a treasure for Cultivators.

Once this news gets out, countless powerful individuals will likely flock here; it wouldn't be strange even if those in the Dongxu Realm rushed over."

Yuan Qihang immediately burst into laughter, "What a good idea! With so many people taking action, Ye won't even know how he died.

He won't know who to complain to even in the underworld, and our Yuan family won't lose a single soldier."

Dahua smiled faintly, "That's right. Our biggest success in this matter is staying out of it.

No matter the final outcome, no one will be able to find fault with my Minister of War's residence…"

Just as the father and son were talking excitedly, a sudden commotion came from outside, followed by a loud bang, as if something had collapsed.

"What's going on?"

The expressions of the father and son changed. Just then, a guard ran in frantically.

"Lord Minister, it's bad! Several Black-Clothed Men have broken into the Minister's mansion. They are very powerful; they just destroyed a house with one punch."

"What?"

Yuan Dahua's expression changed drastically. He had just said that no matter what, no one would find fault with the Minister's mansion, but unexpectedly, disaster struck in the blink of an eye.

"What exactly happened? Let's go out and see!"

Yuan Qihang was recuperating in bed. He left the room with the guard and came into the courtyard.

In the air at this moment, Zhu Rong Lingtian and the two others stood proudly, brimming with Killing Intent.

Normally, they would not want to provoke the Minister of War's residence, but today was different; for the dragon absorption stone, they simply couldn't afford to worry about so much.

Moreover, with their strength, they were merely unwilling to provoke, not afraid.

They had just seen that Black-Clothed Man disappear inside this mansion, and their Divine Sense scans showed he hadn't left.

He must be hidden somewhere; they had to drag him out.

"Audacious madman! How dare you break into the Minister of War's residence? Are you seeking death?!"

A Cultivator, whose Realm had already reached the Body Integration Stage Peak, and who had not seen the three make a move, eager to gain merit, shouted and lunged forward.

"Seeking death!"

A long sword appeared in Gongsun Ming's palm. A sword light slashed, and the man was split in half before he could even dodge, his body falling to the ground.

"Uh…"

Everyone present shuddered in fear. One must know that was a Body Integration Peak, much stronger than many of them, yet he couldn't even block a single sword strike.

The Cultivation of these three people was too terrifying. What Realm had they reached?

Several people who had been eager to move immediately stopped in their tracks, standing there obediently.

"Who is Your Excellency? Why do you break into my Minister's mansion?"

At this moment, a lean middle-aged man stepped forward. He was Mu Gaoyuan, the First Elder Cultivator of the Minister of War's residence, a Void Tempering Initial Stage strongman.

"Those who don't want to die, get out of my way!"

Zhu Rong Lingtian was anxious to find the Black-Clothed Man and had no time for idle talk with them. He directly threw a punch.

Immediately, a dazzling firelight streaked across the night sky. In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen guards of the mansion were

turned into ashes.

He looked back at the Yin Yang Two Immortals, "Let's work together to find that guy first."

"Alright!"

The Gongsun brothers had no objections. Their goal was the dragon absorption stone; they also needed to find the Black-Clothed Man first.

The three of them simultaneously released their Divine Sense, searching inch by inch within the mansion.

"There!"

Gongsun Ming was the first to discover the Black-Clothed Man's tracks. The other party had hidden his Qi and was hiding in a nearby wooden building.

"Kid, get out here!"

With an angry shout, the long sword in his hand erupted with a sword light, four or five zhang long, fiercely slashing towards that wooden building.

"Stop them!"

Originally, Mu Gaoyuan felt quite apprehensive seeing the three people in front of him, but seeing that they were about to demolish the house, as a Cultivator, he couldn't just stand by.

After a loud shout, he led more than a dozen guards, charging forward, wanting to block that sword light.

"Seeking death!"

Before they could even get close, Gongsun Liang's long sword slashed over.

The fierce sword light streaked across the night sky, carrying boundless Killing Intent, engulfing more than a dozen guards, instantly stirring them into a bloody mist.

Mu Gaoyuan desperately wielded the long sword in his hand. Although he barely blocked the blow, he was still shaken, his Qi and blood churning, and a mouthful of fresh blood spurted from his mouth.

At this moment, he realized that the opponent was not in the Void Tempering Initial Stage; their Cultivation was much stronger than his own.

At this point, how could he care about so much? He immediately turned and ran. After all, the position of Elder Cultivator was far less important than his own life.

The others, seeing that even the Grand Elder had run, dared not stay there any longer and also turned and fled, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

And in that instant, Gongsun Ming's long sword fiercely struck the wooden building in front, accompanied by a loud bang, instantly turning into scattered sawdust.

The Black-Clothed Man, hidden within the wooden building, seemed unharmed. He directly leaped out and then snuck into another nearby mansion.

"Stop right there!"

Gongsun Liang's long sword slashed over, once again leveling this mansion.

But that Black-Clothed Man was like a loach, always able to find a gap, emerging from their fierce attacks, and then in a flash, drilling into another nearby mansion.

This time, it was Zhu Rong Lingtian who launched the attack. He directly threw a large fireball, and the entire courtyard was engulfed in a sea of flames.

Yuan Dahua watched all of this from afar, practically going mad with rage. "Nima, what are they doing? Are they catching someone or demolishing my house?"
