I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 431 Flood!

Xie Lingyun looked at the departing King Pingbian with a hint of worry in his eyes: "Father, we are in big trouble!"

"Trouble is inevitable. Nothing will change it." Xie Xuan's voice was full of ease. "Besides, we have 50,000 elite soldiers and the great fortune of the dynasty. Even if Zhang Shicheng really turns into a dragon and reaches the eleventh level, we may not be without the ability to give it a try."

"What did Zhang Chen say?" King Pingbian looked at Xie Lingyun with a questioning look in his eyes.

Xie Lingyun said: "He wants to meet you in person. He said that even if that old loach turns into a dragon and enters the twelfth level, we still have a way to kill him."

"Did he really say that?" Xie Xuan's eyes gleamed.

He still believed in Zhang Chen's words. After all, Zhang Shicheng was halfway through his transformation into a dragon and had already entered the tenth level, but didn't he still fail?
"That's right." Xie Lingyun said.

"It seems that I really need to go meet him in person." After saying this, Zhang Shicheng walked straight into the rain. In a few flashes, his figure disappeared into the rain curtain.

Inside the inn, after Xie Lingyun left, Zhang Chen kept thinking about Xie Lingyun's words in his mind: "The demon ancestor who surrounded the capital of the Dasheng Dynasty actually controlled the five-color light?"

He thought of the five-colored divine light. The only thing in the world that could match the five-colored light was probably the five-colored divine light.

Considering how difficult that old guy Peacock is, it is not impossible that he has survived from an unknown era to the present day, right?

“But maybe I’m overthinking it. Not all magical powers that flash with colorful light are necessarily the five-colored divine light.” Zhang Chen kept encouraging himself.

If the innate peacock survived from the ancient times, I would be doomed. Although I can hook the soul of the innate peacock, the soul of the innate peacock is too powerful. Even if I hook its soul, I can't do anything to it. The other party may even kill all my relatives around me, and even use the people around me to threaten me.

My damn soul-snatching technique is only responsible for hooking, not suppressing. This is really a big trouble.

"I hope not! I hope not!" Zhang Chen muttered to himself.

If so, not only will he be in trouble, but the entire human race will be in trouble. The five-color divine light of the innate peacock is so strong, who in the human race can stop the innate peacock?

Even if there is a twelfth-order secret, I am afraid it cannot stop the innate peacock? A dead twelfth-order and a living one who knows how many levels, are there any comparisons between the two?

"No matter how you put it, that old fellow who has an unknown background and can fight against two mysterious tier-12 items is a problem for the human race." Zhang Chen muttered to himself.

Just as various thoughts were wandering in Zhang Chen's mind, a figure in a brocade robe appeared in the long street outside the inn. All the raindrops were blocked by an invisible force when they approached the man in the brocade robe three feet away, and slid away from him.

Then, the man in brocade robe walked through the rain and came into the inn. He stood outside Zhang Chen's door and knocked gently.

As there was a knock on the door, Zhang Chen in the room was startled. With his current mastery of the blood control technique, he didn't even notice anything unusual in advance when someone came to the door. Isn't this horrifying?

"Master! This man must be a master!" Zhang Chen said secretly in his heart.

Then Zhang Chen stood up and opened the door. He saw the familiar face outside the door and felt that his calculation was correct. If Xie Xuan was not considered a master, then who else could be considered a master?
"It's Commander Xie. Please come in and have a chat." Zhang Chen looked at Xie Xuan with a smile.

Xie Xuan looked Zhang Chen up and down and found that Zhang Chen had grown taller, with delicate and fair skin, and an extraordinary temperament. He did not look like an ordinary person, but like a young master of a wealthy family.

The two of them sat down in the room, and Xie Xuan looked at Zhang Chen, "Do you have any idea to deal with that old loach?"

"Yes!" Zhang Chen took out the Blood-Transforming Divine Knife from his sleeve and placed it on the table: "This knife can pierce the reverse scale of that old loach!"

The Blood-Transforming Divine Sword is as thin as a cicada's wing and looks like a work of art. It doesn't look like a deadly weapon at all.

"After the old loach turns into a dragon, I will extract the soul of the old loach. Then you can use this knife to pierce its body, and then destroy its body." Zhang Chen stroked the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword, with a murderous look in his eyes: "But you still need to be careful, don't let yourself be hurt by the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword. Once you are hurt by the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword, you will bleed to death." Hearing Zhang Chen's instructions, Xie Xuan immediately became interested. He looked at the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword with his eyes, stretched out his hand to touch the handle of the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword, looked at it for a few times, then pulled out the long sword from his waist and threw it away, then put the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword into the scabbard, carefully hiding the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword in his wide sleeves, and then said solemnly: "Is your plan that simple?"

"Does it need to be more complicated?" Zhang Chen smiled casually, "There is just one more thing. After you kill the old loach's body, you need to come and help me kill the old loach's soul immediately. Otherwise, I am afraid that I can't do anything to the old loach's soul by myself. If the soul escapes, it will be a big trouble."

Xie Xuan nodded and said, "Don't worry, wait until I kill the old loach..." Xie Xuan paused and said, "At least we have to take away his dragon ball and extract his dragon tendons, then I will come to help you. We can't kill the old loach, the benefits will be taken away by those guys hiding in the dark."

Zhang Chen nodded when he heard this. There was some truth in what the other party said: "Remember to dig out the dragon horn for me. If you can make a weapon out of it in the future, it will not be bad either."

The matter was considered to be discussed at this point. Xie Xuan stared at Zhang Chen with his eyes fixed on him. "To be honest, I have investigated your background, but I still cannot believe that you have such a skill. I always feel that you have been possessed by some old monster. How can the Zhang family have such a powerful bloodline? Your soul-stealing skills have long been beyond the scope of the Zhang family's bloodline."

Zhang Chen smiled softly upon hearing this. He knew what Xie Xuan meant. Xie Xuan regarded the skills he obtained from the golden finger as the blood power of the Zhang family in Shangjing. However, this also gave Zhang Chen a chance to cover up: "My blood is a mutation, and I had another opportunity before."

"The Zhang family drove your father's lineage out. This is really the Zhang family's greatest loss." Xie Xuan picked up the teacup and took a sip. Before Zhang Chen could ask any more questions, Xie Xuan's figure had faded away. Only his voice was echoing back and forth in the inn: "Zhang Chen, I'm waiting for your good news. As long as you can lure Zhang Shicheng's soul out, I will personally stab the Blood-Transforming Divine Knife into his reverse scale."

Watching Xie Xuan disappear into thin air, Zhang Chen sat in front of the table drinking tea, his eyes narrowed: "Dragon Ball, that's a good thing!"

At this time, the door was pushed open again, and Chen Xu walked in from outside the house, his voice very excited: "Was that the Great Yangshen Zhenren just now?"

"That's right! It's the Great Master Yangshen! And he's the leader of the Northern Inspection Office." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Chen Xu looked at Zhang Chen with a higher regard in his heart: "I see that you are calm and composed now, could it be that you have found a way to break the calamity?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, the old loach is dead." Zhang Chen said.

Chen Xu touched his chin and repeated his question again: "Are you sure that old guy is dead?"

"He will definitely die! Unless someone comes to rescue him!" Zhang Chen said.

"If that's the case..." Chen Xu's eyes suddenly lit up: "If I take this opportunity to swallow the old loach's true body, how much will my strength increase dramatically?"

“Don’t let yourself be killed by those powerful men! If Zhang Shicheng dies, there will be countless people staring at his body. If one of them kills you, don’t blame me for not warning you in advance.” Zhang Chen felt that Chen Xu’s idea was not very reliable.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, Chen Xu's mind was still burning with anxiety: "I can make arrangements in advance, and I can also make use of the Feng Shui formation set up by the Pingbian Palace."

After Chen Xu finished speaking, he could no longer sit still. He picked up his oil-paper umbrella and walked out of the house. Only his voice could be heard: "Wait for my good news."

Zhang Chen looked at Chen Xu's departing back and couldn't help but shake his head slightly, his eyes full of helplessness: "This guy is really not afraid of death, but he must have other cards up his sleeve!"

After everything was arranged, Zhang Chen no longer had any doubts about the future. He drank his wine leisurely, watching the heavy rain outside the window, and felt very relaxed.

In the Inspection Office, Xie Xuan returned home and drew out the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword. He looked at the blade in his hand, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, and his eyes showed a solemn look: "What an evil sword! What an evil person!"

After staring at the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword for a long time, Xie Xuan put the precious sword back into the scabbard. He thought of the Zhang family in Shangjing again, and his eyes showed an inexplicable complexity: "The elders of the Zhang family are really mistaken this time. The Zhang family has now produced a real dragon."

"It would be great if I could pull him into the Inspection Office and make him a member of my Inspection Office." Xie Xuan had another idea of ​​pulling Zhang Chen into the Inspection Office. If this was done, he would have more confidence when facing those old guys in the future.

"Or...how about marrying Ling Yun to him? Then we can become a family?" Some thoughts kept popping up in Xie Xuan's mind. He really admired Zhang Chen so much that he even sold his own daughter to him.

Time passed quickly, and three days went by in a flash. The rainstorm became heavier and heavier. Water above the knees began to accumulate in the streets. Water began to accumulate in the shops on both sides of the long street, and ordinary people's homes also began to suffer from floods. Some people's thatched huts were soaked and collapsed, while others' courtyard walls collapsed. Even worse, mudslides rolled down from the top of the mountain, sweeping through the village in the mountain and causing bloodshed.
