Dongguo Yang immediately stepped forward.
When he turned around, he saw a young man, calm and indifferent.
He had an early-stage Essence Soul Realm cultivation.
This person was none other than Jiang Lan whom Dongguo Yang was staring at.
At this moment, Jiang Lan didn't make a move right away. It wasn't because the other party was only at the early-stage Essence Soul Realm and hence looked down on him, but because he wanted to ask why this person had targeted him.Was he from the Heavenly Human Race, Demon Race, or the Dragon Race?
These people all had motives to take him out.
The Heavenly Human Race was the most suspicious.
But no one knew the thoughts of the Demon Race and the Dragon Race. They had different styles of doing things and might not ignore him.
"Senior… Senior Brother, why are you here?" Dongguo Yang immediately asked.
Upon hearing these words, Jiang Lan glanced at Dongguo Yang. He didn't say anything but took a step forward.
In an instant, his hand grabbed onto Dongguo Yang's shoulder.Bang!
A crisp sound rang out as Dongguo Yang's arm was crushed.
It turned into a bloody mist.
"Ah!!"
A blood-curdling scream erupted as Dongguo Yang clutched his arm in horror.
He looked at Jiang Lan in disbelief.
"Senior… Senior Brother, what are you doing?" Dongguo Yang felt fear in his heart. The other party was much stronger than him.
He had thought that Jiang Lan was an indecisive person, but he had never expected that the other party would crush his arm the moment he arrived.
Pain shot through him.
It was as if he was telling him that he was going to die today.
"They still won't let me go?" Jiang Lan's voice rang out.
It was deep and cold.
Dongguo Yang took two steps back as his impression of Jiang Lan changed drastically.
In the years since he entered Kunlun, he thought that Jiang Lan of the Ninth Summit was reclusive and had low self-esteem. He did not interact with anyone.
The advancement of his cultivation base depended on the resources of the Ninth Summit. Later on, he was lucky enough to become a Kunlun puppet and marry a princess of the Dragon Race.
The only thing he was worthy of praise was probably his temperament.
But this was also criticized.
Some thought that it was just the concession of an incompetent person, the silence of the weak.
However, today, Dongguo Yang discovered that his opponent was extremely ruthless and didn't hold back at all.
He killed his way through.
He was no weakling. He was a bloodthirsty expert.
And…
All four of them previously were mighty figures, so they were not people that ordinary people could handle.
These people were definitely killed by Jiang Lan.
The actual Jiang Lan did not match what was said in rumors at all.
Everyone thought that Jiang Lan was easy to bully, but in reality, he was a tiger that ate people and a demon that killed people.
From the other party's tone, he could tell that Jiang Lan had long known that someone was watching him. The person who was watching him previously was most likely killed by him too..
When he thought of this, Dongguo Yang no longer had the will to fight. He had no intention to resist.
"Senior Brother, it's not what you think." The more Dongguo Yang thought about it, the more he felt how terrifying Jiang Lan was. Fear began to fill his entire body.
"Furthermore, I can help Senior Brother. Senior Brother is extremely strong. The Heavenly Human Race still has some people secretly planted a few kilometers away from Kunlun. I can help Senior Brother deal with them together." Dongguo Yang felt that he should be of value.
"If the people who keep an eye on Senior Brother were to die again and again, they would definitely be suspicious. At that time, they would get an immortal to keep an eye on Senior Brother. It's not impossible for this to happen."
It seemed like it was the Heavenly Human Race.
Jiang Lan came to a conclusion.
"What is the cultivation of those who are still hiding?" Jiang Lan asked.
"I heard that one of them just became an immortal, while the others have yet to become immortals. Senior Brother should also be about to become an immortal. It won't be difficult to deal with them," Dongguo Yang said.
"Have you informed them?" Jiang Lan asked.
It was indeed dangerous for him if an immortal were to attack him.
It seemed like the Heavenly Human Race couldn't tolerate him any longer.
"No, no. Under normal circumstances, it's impossible to contact them."
"Nan Xin from the Nan family of the Central Plains. Who is he?"
"He's an assassin hired by the Heavenly Human Race to deal with you, Senior Brother. However, for some reason, he gave up on the contract 50 years ago." Dongguo Yang was a little puzzled.
But he suddenly thought of something.
Did the other party sense Jiang Lan's strength?
Hearing Dongguo Yang's words, Jiang Lan was also surprised. Those two people were indeed here to deal with him.
But they had left just like that?
He did not know why the other party had retreated, but he needed to be more careful in the future.
"Do you know where the people who are hiding from the Heavenly Human Race are located?" Jiang Lan asked.
"They wouldn't talk about it, but I have checked before. They should be near the East Road Bridge."
"Why didn't you inform them to come?"
"We can't contact them. We can only contact them at a fixed time…" Dongguo Yang panicked when he saw Jiang Lan walking over.
"S-Senior Brother, don't kill me."
"If I was the one who fell to the ground today, would you… be willing to let me go?" Jiang Lan reached out his hand and calmly said.
"If you were me, you might not be as benevolent as me. At least I'll give you a quickie."
Bang!
To the other party's terror, Jiang Lan ended his life.
He did not like to waste time torturing his enemies.
It was better to just kill as quickly as possible.
Without any further questions, he would send them on their way.
After confirming that all of these people were dead, Jiang Lan activated his One Leaf Vision and vanished on the spot.
This time, he changed his direction and took a detour towards the West Continent Mountain Range.
He was no longer flying on his sword, but was using his Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel.
As for the members of the Heavenly Human Race at the East Road Bridge, he had to wait until he achieved immortality before coming back to deal with them.
Since he knew about it, there was no need to keep them alive.
This trip would take at most three to five years.
The other party had just become an immortal. He was definitely still consolidating his foundation.
They were both immortals, but Jiang Lan had the Power Of Nine Tribulations so he should be able to determine victory with a single fist.
Of course, everything had to be done after achieving immortality.
Furthermore, he had to consider whether the other party was lying or not.
Even if he had to deal with those people, he had to figure everything out first. Otherwise, he would be courting death.
…
…
In Qingcheng Town, which was about a five days trip away from Kunlun.
There was a huge mountain behind the town. There was a natural bridge halfway up the mountain that connected to the mountain behind it. There seemed to be a town there too.
The natural bridge connecting the two mountains was called the East Road Bridge.
It was said that it was named after the Kunlun Sect Master.
No one knew if it was true.
And beneath the bridge was an endless abyss.
One could not see the end.
If one fell down, one would disappear completely.
Only powerful immortal cultivators could see the truth that lied in the abyss.
If one's cultivation was high enough, one would be able to continue downward. There was a cave near the pitch-black abyss.
A low voice came from the cave.
"The spy left in Kunlun is dead."
Light appeared in the cave.
The four of them sat at the table with gloomy expressions.
In the center was a middle-aged man. The words he had just said came from his mouth.
Miao Qinghe, had come here to personally deal with Jiang Lan himself not long after becoming an immortal.
He had been waiting for an opportunity.
It was not only because Jiang Lan had ascended the Stairway to Heavens, but also because Miao Xiu and the others had died because of Jiang Lan.
But the spy was dead again.
He didn't know about the death of Feng Ji previously, thus this time, he specially placed something on Dongguo Yang.
If something went wrong with the spy, he could only find out about it immediately.
He now knew that Dongguo Yang had died, but he had no idea what Jiang Lan had done or was going to do.
At this moment, a woman walked into the cave.
"There's news." Miao Xin was a little anxious.
This time, the communication established was abnormal.
