Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 223 Conflict
Cao Bao was gritting his teeth in secret, when he suddenly saw four big men approaching not far away. The leader was a burly man with a long sword hanging from his waist and wearing a black robe. He strode forward with full momentum.The three men behind them also gave people a strong and brave aura, and the four of them stood together, giving people a strong deterrent.

The children of many aristocratic families standing in front of them subconsciously parted ways, like cutting through waves, and the four of them came to the door with big strides. When Cao Bao saw the four of them, he was overjoyed and hurried up to meet them.

"These four are Zang Ba and his three subordinates?"

Gao Cheng, Zhang Zhao, and Chen Lin's mental strength far surpassed that of ordinary people, and their five senses were very keen. When the four of them came over, they subconsciously stopped talking and then looked at them.

Just as Gao Cheng expected, Zang Ba's body was enveloped in a faint and undetectable aura, which was only the body-protecting aura that can only be possessed in the super-ordinary refining aura realm.And the three men behind him were as strong as Pei Yuanshao.

Mi Zhu saw Cao Bao walking towards these four people, then pointed at him and Gao Cheng, and said something to Zang Ba and the other four.He couldn't help feeling nervous, he could figure it out even with his feet, Cao Bao must be saying something provocative.

Zang Ba and the three people behind him, after Cao Bao's guidance, immediately set their eyes on Mi Zhu and Gao Cheng. Cover up killing intent.

"Mi Zhu! Gao Cheng, you two killed my brother. Today, I, Sun Guan, will kill you to avenge my brother!" This slender man is Sun Kang's brother. famous general.

With a low growl, he drew out the long knife at his waist with a swipe, and came to Mi Zhu and Gao Cheng in a single step.

As soon as Sun Guan made a move, the children of other aristocratic families around him showed horror.They were not shocked by Sun Guan's strength, but that he had the courage to draw his sword in front of the governor's mansion.

Sun Guan's movements were so fast that even Zang Ba didn't have time to react. He wanted to stop him but it was too late. Seeing the expressions on the faces of the children of the aristocratic families around him and the high-level officials in Xuzhou, he felt a little helpless.He used to be a noble family in the county, and he knew that Sun Guan's actions had violated the family's taboo.

"Bold! To be so presumptuous in front of the state capital!"

Zhang Zhao's mental power is very strong, and he sensed it the moment Sun Guan made a move, and when he found out that he wanted to assassinate Gao Cheng and Mi Zhu, he immediately left with anger.He couldn't help shouting sharply, the awe-inspiring aura around him condensed into a bow and arrow, and he was about to use the archery art among the six Confucian arts to shoot Sun Guan to the ground.

However, his condensed bow and arrow speed was a bit slow, and when he was about to make a move, Sun Guan had already rushed in front of Gao Cheng and Mi Zhu.

Gao Cheng smiled faintly, moved his thoughts slightly, and pointed at Sun Guan who was rushing towards him. There was a crack in the sky, and a thunderbolt suddenly appeared from the sky. The thunderbolt condensed into a thick electric light, and the momentum was terrifying.If Sun Guan was hit by this bolt of lightning, he would be seriously injured if he did not die.

"Is this the Taoist Five Thunder Immortal Method? Not good, Zhongtai is dangerous!"

Zang Ba's face changed, and he quickly shouted: "Keep someone under your command!"

With a movement of his body, he quickly ran forward, his right fist condensed a mountain-like qi, and intercepted the electric light with a bang.However, Dianguang's speed was as fast as the limit, and when he just moved, he had already hit the long knife in Sun Guan's hand.

Click!The lightning immediately bombarded Sun Guan along the weapon.Sun Guan's strength was not as good as what he had done, how could he stand up to the thunder's bombardment, he screamed and fell to the ground with black smoke coming from his body.

From Sun Guan's attack to the thunder and lightning bombardment, it took only a split second. When many children from the aristocratic families saw Sun Guan's attack, their hearts just burst into dissatisfaction, and they saw the brave and sturdy Sun Guan, whose face was scorched and lying On the ground, there were still traces of electric light on his body.

"This... this is the Taoist thunder method!"

"Being able to easily use the thunder method, Gao Cheng has already reached an extraordinary state! Hey! So, if he doesn't use the method of burning his lifespan, he can normally have a lifespan of 150 years!"

"150 years is enough to build a family!"

The hearts of the many descendants of the aristocratic families not far away were shocked, why were the practitioners of the Soul Refining Flow so valued by them?The most important thing is the enhanced lifespan. As long as you live a long time, coupled with powerful spells, it is enough to support a family for a hundred years.With a hundred years of time, no matter how weak a small family is, it can still be called a famous family in the county!

After Gao Cheng showed his soul refining cultivation, these people immediately looked at him differently.As long as he doesn't die, there will definitely be a place for him in Xuzhou in the future.

Zang Ba's face was ashen. At this time, Wu Dun and Yin Li who were not far away also flew over, with anger on their faces.Sun Guan was hit by the thunder, but did not die, but was seriously injured.

This is also Gao Cheng's intentional control of Lei Fa's power, in front of the governor's mansion, it is not suitable for killing people.

"Okay! This is Huai'an High County Captain! A few months ago, you killed Sun Kang, and now you have severely injured Sun Guan! Do you know that they are all subordinates of my Zang Ba?"

When the people around heard this, they suddenly realized that Zang Ba and Gao Cheng had a grudge for a long time, no wonder they fought in front of the governor's mansion.But when these people thought that both Zang Ba and Gao Cheng were the commanders of Xuzhou's army, they would soon deal with the Yellow Turban rebels, and now that they had conflicts, what should they do?
Gao Cheng said lightly: "Brother Xuan Gao may have misunderstood you. I don't know you before, so I won't take the initiative to trouble you. The last time Sun Kang led someone to intercept and kill Zi Zhong's second brother and younger sister. His intentions were wrong, and he was arrested. If I kill him, I will die without guilt!"

"Today, Sun Guan also took the initiative to attack us. I didn't kill him. I did it because of Mr. Tao's face. I hope Brother Xuan Gao can restrain his subordinates. This is the Governor's Mansion, so we can't kill him at will. The wilderness of the people!"

"well said!"

Zhang Zhao looked at Zang Ba and the two men behind him with anger on his face, and said in a deep voice, "Zang Ba, Mr. Tao has enlisted you as a general of Xuzhou to give you a chance to abandon the dark and turn to the bright and return to the court of the Han Dynasty." ! If you don’t cherish it, I’m afraid you won’t have such a good chance next time!”

"You actually talk to our elder brother like that!" Yin Li and Wu Dun saw their brother was severely injured by lightning, and they could hardly hold back their anger. to rush out.

Zang Ba pressed his hands together, holding them together.His face was still blue, but he also knew that what Zhang Zhao said was right, if they still made a scene in front of the Governor's Mansion, it would be to disgrace Tao Qian.At that time, there will be no place for their brothers in Xuzhou.

Don't look at the tens of thousands of subordinates, but they are not worth mentioning in front of the Han Dynasty.Any county in Xuzhou has the power to suppress them.This power is the aristocratic family!The aristocratic family teamed up to come up with the trilogy of family soldiers, which could instantly form tens of thousands of elite soldiers.It's just that it's difficult for these aristocratic families to join forces until the moment when the state and county are overthrown.

"Okay! Zang Ba has been taught! Gao Cheng and Mi Zhu, the future will be long, we will discuss it later!" Zang Ba said coldly, and then let Wu Dun and Yin Li bring Sun Guan, who was seriously injured and unconscious, back to the camp. He quickly glanced at Cao Bao, and then walked towards the mansion with big strides.

After Zang Ba left, the children of the aristocratic family who were watching the excitement not far away also dispersed, and entered the governor's mansion with posts in hand.

"Let's go too! Don't make Mr. Tao wait!" Gao Cheng said calmly.
