Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Information that Leads to Immediate Success, From Then On, Unbridled Recklessness

Then, Zheng Qu playfully yet cruelly hid behind Luo Wang.

Next.

Luo Wang, who had been watching the show, suddenly made his move.

"Crack, crack…"

The difference in strength was too great; with Luo Wang's attack, a casual swipe resulted in two slashes.

Those two slashes easily cut through the xiuchun sabers in Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu's hands.

Originally, the xiuchun sabers between ordinary Captain and Squad Leader were of different grades.

Moreover, Luo Wang was a genuine Acquired Eighth Layer Realm existence.

Among the hundreds of Squad Leaders in the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Luo Wang's strength was quite high.

After cutting off their xiuchun sabers, Luo Wang slapped Zhou Hu across the face.

"Slap!"

The force was brutal; half of Zhou Hu's face gushed blood, and his body flew backward.

Zhou Hu crashed through several tables before falling to the ground, his head spinning as if his brains had been shattered, unable to get up, only letting out an extremely angry roar: "Luo Wang, you bastard… you bastard! If you have the guts, kill me, Hei Zhu, Hei Zhu…"

Zhao Black Pillar was even worse off.

Although Zhao Black Pillar possessed natural Divine Power, he was only twice as strong as an ordinary person.

This doubled strength, at most, allowed him to fight one minor Realm above his own.

To fight an Acquired Eighth Layer Realm with an Acquired Third Layer Realm was like an ant trying to fight an elephant.

Luo Wang merely threw a punch, and Zhao Black Pillar didn't even have a chance to react before his shoulder broke, and he fell heavily to the ground.

The next moment, Zhao Black Pillar's head was stepped on by Luo Wang.

"Creak!!!"

Luo Wang pressed down hard.

Zhao Black Pillar's head was about to burst, and he screamed in agony, his body twitching: "Ah ah ah ah…"

It wasn't until Zhao Black Pillar's head was somewhat deformed by Luo Wang's foot, and he fainted from the pain, that Luo Wang withdrew his foot.

But Luo Wang saw blood on his foot, so he disgustedly lifted his foot again and placed it on Zhao Black Pillar's flying fish robe.

He deliberately wiped the blood from his shoe clean before he was satisfied.

"Boss Luo, nothing will happen, right? After all, Lu Zhenghai is a rising star now, and it's said he can even speak on Centurion Song's behalf."

Zheng Qu naturally felt pleased watching Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu's miserable fate, but he also felt a little worried.

"Heh… Is Centurion Song a Centurion? Isn't Centurion Wang a Centurion?" Luo Wang snorted.

Centurion Song was parachuted into the Embroidered Uniform Guard back then, becoming a Centurion right away, offending many people.

Lu Zhenghai, at least, bought his Squad Leader position for 1,000 taels.

Centurion Song, on the other hand, was directly parachuted in and didn't even spend a single penny.

Even more hated!

One must know that there were only so many official positions within the Embroidered Uniform Guard, a fixed number, one spot per person.

When a vacant Centurion position appeared, countless people were eagerly eyeing it.

Centurion Wang was one of them.

Centurion Wang was originally the most hopeful to get that Centurion position, but then Centurion Song was parachuted in.

As a result, Centurion Wang had to wait three more years for another vacant Centurion position.

Three years!

Centurion Wang's resentment was imaginable.

Luo Wang dared to be so arrogant today, partly because his own strength was strong enough.

On the other hand, he was also presenting a letter of allegiance to Centurion Wang.

"If Lu Zhenghai wants to use Centurion Song to make trouble for me, Centurion Wang will protect me. As for Lu Zhenghai wanting to avenge these two useless subordinates himself, I, Luo Wang, will gladly oblige!"

Luo Wang was smug and proud.

Yes, Lu Zhenghai is a Banner Commander now, and I, Luo Wang, am just a Squad Leader.

But what kind of strength do you have? You're trash at the Acquired Fourth Layer Realm.

Even if 20,000 points can help you improve some strength, how much can it improve? Reaching the Acquired Fifth or Sixth Layer, heh… Oh, right, he also inquired.

This idiot Lu Zhenghai actually spent 9,000 points to buy the Cloud Breaking Sword.

That's outrageous!

Hahahaha… Never mind whether the Cloud Breaking Sword is worth Cultivating, the key is that you bought it directly?

Renting it only costs 3,000 points, purely a brain problem.

As for the 11 spirit gathering pills, that's even more ridiculous.

What, does he still want to rely on spirit gathering pills to achieve some kind of Epiphany?

If Lu Zhenghai had used his points to exchange for some tangible resources that could help improve his Martial Dao Realm, he would have looked at him differently.

A waste is a waste.

Not only is his Martial Dao talent useless, but his brain is also useless… The next day, Lu Zhenghai was still immersed in Cultivation.

Another day passed, and he awoke from Cultivation, his face filled with joy.

The Supreme Primordial Cycle Technique had been mastered; he quickly circulated it for one cycle.

Holy cow.

Truly amazing.

If, when using the Sea-Absorbing Qi Swallowing Art before, circulating it for one cycle absorbed 10 units of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

Then now, using the Supreme Primordial Cycle Technique for one cycle, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi absorbed was 300 units.

The difference was beyond imagination.

The feeling of devouring Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in large gulps was truly intoxicating!

"Originally, I thought that even if I was at the Acquired Ninth Layer Realm, there was still a long way to go to the Innate Realm. Buying a heaven grade low rank Breakthrough pill was just preparation, but now…"

He felt a bit impulsive, wanting to directly consume the Breakthrough pill and attempt to Breakthrough to the Innate Realm.

He was in perfect condition now, his essence, Qi, and spirit soaring. Wouldn't it be a pity not to attempt a Breakthrough to the Innate Realm? Martial Cultivation was inherently a matter of pressing forward bravely.

Lu Zhenghai was not a hesitant person; he acted as soon as he thought of it.

He swallowed the heaven grade low rank Breakthrough pill in one gulp.

Immediately, the True Qi within his body began to become violent and boil.

It was almost burning.

Lu Zhenghai frantically circulated the Supreme Primordial Cycle Technique, the speed of each cycle was terrifying, as if it was about to smoke.

The True Qi in his body became increasingly wild.

An hour later, "Breakthrough for me!" Lu Zhenghai suddenly opened his eyes and roared.

In an instant, the True Qi in his body, with an indomitable momentum, forcibly broke through a major Acupoints barrier.

"Hiss…"

He had Broken through.

Yes, he directly Broke through from the Acquired Ninth Layer Realm to the Innate Realm.

The chasm of a major Realm should have been like an insurmountable natural barrier.

But because the Supreme Primordial Cycle Technique was too amazing, coupled with the excellent state of his essence, Qi, and spirit being one, and a Breakthrough pill of barely acceptable quality.

He had actually created a miracle.

"Hahahaha… This is so damn exhilarating!"

[Realm: Innate First Layer Realm]

"I said Breakthrough is as simple as breathing, who dares to object?"

The Innate Realm could barely be considered a minor expert, let alone a Innate Realm holding the heaven grade low rank Martial Skill One Sword Flying Immortal?

Lu Zhenghai was in an incredibly good mood, humming a tune as he left the Cultivation room.

As soon as he left the Cultivation room, Lu Zhenghai immediately refreshed his intelligence.

[Ding, intelligence has been refreshed.]

[Ding, the Commander of the Jinyiwei, Current Commander, lifelong wish is to create the "Ten Directions Heaven and Earth True God Armor."

This Divine Armor, when worn, can withstand a full-power strike from a Martial Artist below the Heavenly Human Realm, Third Layer.

Current Commander has spent over ten years and invested more than 1.5 million taels to create this Divine Armor.

However, he is still missing the last material for this Divine Armor, the Blood Spring Python's tailbone.

To find the Blood Spring Python's tailbone, Current Commander has secretly excavated more than ten Ancient Tombs in the past three years, but still hasn't found it.

King Kaoshan's treasury contains the Blood Spring Python's tailbone, but King Kaoshan himself does not recognize it.]

Lu Zhenghai gasped, this piece of information was quite significant!

"Mastering this intelligence means I hold a super trump card. If I wish, I can use this intelligence at any time to gain Current Commander's favor."

...Of course, for now, this super trump card should be used as little as possible; using it casually would be too wasteful.

One day, when he becomes a Thousand Households or even a Deputy Commander, this intelligence will be of greater value.

"Whew…"

Lu Zhenghai forcibly suppressed the excitement and greed in his heart, stepping out towards the Lu Residence.

"Three days of closed-door Cultivation, time's up. It's time to raid the Gao family."

Before raiding the Gao family, he had to go to the Garrison first; raiding a home required people, he couldn't go alone, could he?

When he went to the Garrison, he would also give the Sea-Absorbing Qi Swallowing Art to Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu.

Who told him he now possessed the Supreme Primordial Cycle Technique? He had no use for the Sea-Absorbing Qi Swallowing Art.

And the Internal Skill that Zhou Hu and Zhao Black Pillar Cultivated had always been the "Basic Qi Absorption Art" issued by the Embroidered Uniform Guard to every Captain, which was only a High Grade human grade, far inferior to the Sea-Absorbing Qi Swallowing Art.

However.

When Lu Zhenghai arrived at the Garrison, he didn't see Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu.

Instead, many Captain he didn't recognize were looking at him with strange expressions.

Lu Zhenghai's heart skipped a beat. He quickly inquired and soon learned that Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu had gotten into trouble.

At this time, Centurion Song was not at the Garrison. Chief Huang, seeing Lu Zhenghai's emotional state from afar, immediately walked up.

Chief Huang: "Brother Lu, don't be impulsive. Luo Wang has Centurion Wang backing him. Even if you want to avenge Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu, you must act cautiously."

"If Centurion Wang gets involved, won't Centurion Song protect me?"

"If Centurion Wang steps in, Centurion Song will definitely step in, but if Centurion Wang doesn't, then the struggle between you and Luo Wang can only be handled by yourself. Luo Wang is an Acquired Eighth Layer Realm existence, and he is famously strong among the Squad Leaders."

"Thank you for the reminder, Brother Huang. I understand."

Lu Zhenghai left the Garrison and walked directly towards the Four Seasons Tower.

At the Garrison, he had already found out.

Today, Zheng Qu and 9 other Captain were hosting their superior, Squad Leader Luo Wang, at the Four Seasons Tower.

Speaking of which, the Embroidered Uniform Guard was truly impressive. Yesterday, Luo Wang seriously injured Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu at the Four Seasons Tower.

He smashed many tables and chairs at the Four Seasons Tower.

Logically, there should be compensation.

But when did the Embroidered Uniform Guard ever compensate merchants? Obviously, they didn't need to.

Not only did they not need to compensate, today, Luo Wang and the 11 of them continued to dine at the Four Seasons Tower.

On the way to the Four Seasons Tower, to his surprise, Lu Zhenghai encountered Zhou Hu, who was rushing over.

Half of Zhou Hu's face was bruised black, and his face was so swollen he was almost unrecognizable.

Even so, he was much better than Zhao Black Pillar. Zhao Black Pillar only woke up from his coma this morning, and his injuries were severe.

Even with good medical treatment, Zhao Black Pillar would need to rest in bed for one or two months.

After being injured by Luo Wang yesterday, Zhou Hu immediately sent people to keep an eye on the Lu Residence.

He was afraid that after his boss emerged from seclusion and received the news, he would be furious and recklessly seek revenge on Luo Wang.

Wouldn't that be a disadvantage?

Luo Wang was too strong, an Acquired Eighth Layer Realm, almost invincible among all Squad Leaders, and might even become a reserve Banner Commander someday. How could his boss possibly be Luo Wang's opponent?

A gentleman's revenge is never too late, even after ten years!

Zhou Hu rushed forward: "Boss, are you going to find Luo Wang?"

Lu Zhenghai glanced at Zhou Hu's face, and the anger in his heart almost boiled: "Hei Zhu's injuries are very serious, aren't they?"

"They are very serious, but thankfully there's no danger to his life." Zhou Hu pleaded and begged:

"Boss, don't be impulsive. Your future is very bright now; there's no need to fight desperately with someone like Luo Wang!"

"You are a Banner Commander, he is a Squad Leader…"

"You possess far superior Martial Cultivation resources than him, and your strength will surpass his sooner or later. We can get revenge then!"

..."Who said I was going to fight desperately?" Lu Zhenghai asked.

"Ah?" Zhou Hu didn't understand.

Lu Zhenghai stepped forward and patted Zhou Hu's shoulder: "I'm going to kill someone!"

The kind of killing that crushes!

Is there a difference between a Xiantian killing an Acquired and killing a chicken? Moreover, he wielded the heaven grade low rank Martial Skill One Sword Flying Immortal.

As for the consequences of killing a colleague? He wasn't so hot-headed as to find Luo Wang and kill him without a word.

When they met, he would provoke him, then call it a sparring match.

Luo Wang probably desired a sparring match even more.

Then, during the sparring match, he accidentally killed Luo Wang, wouldn't that be reasonable? After all, swords and sabers have no eyes.

Although, everyone would know afterwards that he deliberately killed Luo Wang.

But as long as there was a reason he could use to "quibble," Centurion Song would most likely forcibly protect him.

After all, he had just performed a great deed, proving his worth.

As for whether Centurion Song had the ability to forcibly protect him? Yes!

Centurion Song had a mysterious backer.

Furthermore, the matter of Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu being seriously injured by Luo Wang was originally involved in the overt and covert struggles between Centurion Wang and Centurion Song.

If Centurion Song didn't protect him to the death, it would be equivalent to conceding to Centurion Wang.

Centurion Song was not the type to concede.

Even if Centurion Song couldn't protect him or failed to, at worst, after he was thrown into prison, he could contact Current Commander. He had intelligence about the Blood Spring Python that Current Commander highly valued.

If you ask how to contact Current Commander? What, after he was thrown into prison, wouldn't Zhao Black Pillar and Zhou Hu visit him?

Don't say I, Lu Zhenghai, am impulsive!

Damn it, they've already bullied you to your face. If you're not impulsive, are you supposed to act like a coward?

Moreover, he had just taken the position of Banner Commander, and everyone was watching!

If he didn't take fierce revenge, would his subordinates still respect him in the future? How would he lead a team? How would he gather loyal followers?
