The battle for the throne in Kowloon starts with the steady prince

Chapter 223 Fifteenth-Rank Talisman Cultivator, God-King Realm Combat Strength (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Further Reading)

Qin Changge nodded; he had anticipated this.

After all, the Primordial Profound Yellow Root, one of the ten great spiritual roots of the Upper Realm, is of immeasurable value. Now that it has appeared in Blood Cloud Mountain like a pie falling from the sky, how could this den of Blood Cloud bandits possibly give it up?
By this time, the Blood Cloud Bandits had probably searched every inch of Blood Cloud Mountain, and even the Primordial Profound Yellow Root had fallen into their hands.

Therefore, even if the Blood Cloud Bandits were willing to give up Blood Cloud Mountain for Qin Changge and his group to search, Qin Changge and his group would not be able to let the Blood Cloud Bandits go.

After all, it's very likely that the Primordial Profound Yellow Root has already been stolen by Blood Cloud.

Of course, the fact that the Blood Cloud Bandits are taking such a tough stance at least indicates one thing: the Primordial Profound Yellow Root has not yet fallen into their hands. Therefore, they are unlikely to relinquish Blood Cloud Mountain, which is at least good news.

Qin Changge patted Yue Chenfeng on the shoulder and said, "Captain, you've worked hard. Take a rest first, and we'll wait a while before making our move."

Yue Chenfeng, Ye Jinglan, and the others looked at Qin Changge with some surprise, wondering what Qin Changge was up to.

Qin Changge's idea was simple: he had just purchased the talisman inheritance, so now he should improve his talisman-making abilities and then refine a large number of high-level talismans. Then, no matter how many Celestial God Realm cultivators were on the opposing side, they would all be defeated by Qin Changge's God King Realm-level talismans.

……

Qin Changge sat cross-legged in his room at the Golden Knife Guard branch in Baisha City and opened the system panel.

[Name: Qin Changge]

【Age: 19】

[Realm: Divine Light Realm]

【Talent: Lightning Martial Soul】

[Cultivation Techniques: Righteous Qi Creation Technique (Perfected), Martial Emperor's Divine Scripture (Perfected), Heavenly Thunder Battle Technique (Perfected)]

[Supernatural Power: Thunder Hammer of Might (Perfect)]

Witness Points: 308

Then Qin Changge directly upgraded his talisman to the fifteenth level.

After consuming 300 Witness Points, I finally upgraded the talisman's power to the fifteenth level of Great Perfection.

In this way, Qin Changge's talisman skills are now comparable to those of the God-King realm, meaning he now possesses the combat power of a God-King. He can face several Blood Cloud Bandits at the Heavenly God realm without fear.

Qin Changge began working overtime to refine talismans, all of which could threaten cultivators at the God King level.

Even a mere Celestial God Realm cultivator would perish before Qin Changge's talismans.

Qin Changge spent another three days refining talismans, and he didn't know how many he had made.

At this moment, Yue Chenfeng came to find Qin Changge. Qin Changge opened the door, looked at Yue Chenfeng curiously, and asked, "Captain, what happened?"

Yue Chenfeng explained, "When we went to negotiate with the Blood Cloud Bandits, we didn't have any ulterior motives, but the Blood Cloud Bandits thought we were already preparing to make a move. So they struck first."

Yue Chenfeng was actually somewhat regretful. They had only come here to lay low and avoid participating in the enemy nation's exchange meeting. But now that they had provoked the Blood Cloud Bandits, they probably couldn't stay here any longer and wouldn't be able to live in peace.

Qin Changge frowned and asked, "What did the Blood Cloud Bandits do?"

Yue Chenfeng said, "They started robbing caravans in the surrounding area, their purpose being to give us a warning. If we make a move, they will retaliate, and if we can't defeat them, we're doomed."

Qin Changge understood that the Blood Cloud Bandits had turned the tables and wanted to wipe out the Golden Knife Guards in one fell swoop.

Qin Changge calmly said, "Indeed, they do whatever they want and act recklessly without restraint."

I didn't really understand it from what the copper-knife patrol officer Bai Lingyun had told me before, but now I realize how arrogant and domineering the Blood Cloud Bandits have been for so long.

Qin Changge's expression darkened.

Yue Chenfeng then said, "Brother Changge, I'm telling you this to advise you not to act impulsively. We can't defeat those Heavenly God Realm experts, so we can only plan carefully." Qin Changge didn't say anything. This Blood Cloud Bandit was taking advantage of his power and bullying others. He was powerful and had no scruples.

What Yue Chenfeng meant by "taking a long-term view" was actually just swallowing his anger; when you're under someone else's roof, you have no choice but to bow your head.

But now Qin Changge is ready. Qin Changge doesn't fight battles he's not confident of winning, but now he is confident; Qin Changge doesn't fight battles he's not prepared for, but now he is prepared.

Everything is ready; this battle must be fought whether we want to or not.

Qin Changge said, "Captain, you and Xie Buyan should stay here at the Golden Knife Guard branch and not go anywhere else. Don't get involved in robbing merchant caravans either."

Yue Chenfeng nodded, somewhat relieved. Qin Changge seemed to have taken his words to heart, but Yue Chenfeng still felt something was amiss: "You told us to stay here, but what about you?"

Qin Changge said, "Since the Blood Cloud Bandits are so hospitable, I should go and pay them a visit."

Yue Chenfeng was somewhat taken aback and said, "Brother Changge, there are several experts at the Heavenly God Realm on the other side. You'd better think this through."

Qin Changge said calmly, "I've thought this through very clearly, otherwise I wouldn't have waited until today."

Qin Changge patted Yue Chenfeng on the shoulder, then leaped into the air and flew away, his destination clearly pointing directly at Blood Cloud Mountain.

Qin Changge headed to Blood Cloud Mountain, while Yue Chenfeng quickly reassured the other team members, telling them not to act rashly.

Xie Buyan, Ye Hanzhou, and the others were somewhat bewildered. Xie Buyan was a little scared, after all, he was only at the Burning God Realm.

Xie Buyan asked, "The captain has set off, what should we do?"

Yue Chenfeng said, "Brother Changge told us to hold back, you just need to stay here."

"Yes." Xie Buyan, Ye Hanzhou and the others nodded, but they were still a little worried.

If Qin Changge were to fall and die at the hands of the Blood Cloud Bandits, they would become a scattered and disorganized force, forced to return to their reserve point and be picked over by others. Whether they would ever encounter a captain as good as Qin Changge again was uncertain.

Xie Buyan, Ye Hanzhou, and the others all hoped that Qin Changge could return victorious, but the opposing side consisted of several experts at the Heavenly God Realm and a large group of bandits. How could they possibly win?
They felt that Qin Changge was far too reckless.

At this moment, Qin Changge had already arrived at Blood Cloud Mountain.

The bandits of Blood Cloud Mountain were very professional. They already had patrols, and when they discovered Qin Changge in silver armor, they realized he was a Silver Knife Guard patrolman from the Golden Knife Guard. This alarmed the entire Blood Cloud Mountain stronghold: "Enemy attack!"

Several figures soared into the air and confronted Qin Changge high in the sky.

One of them was completely covered in white paper, making him look like a mummy.

Another person was riding a giant skeletal dragon, looking quite imposing.

One person even had two tiger teeth sticking out of their mouth like tusks, making them look like a wild boar.

At this moment, the three leaders of the Blood Cloud Bandits appeared before Qin Changge. These three leaders were all experts at the Heavenly God Realm. As for the fourth leader who had previously sent Yue Chenfeng back, he was not qualified to be ranked alongside these three leaders.

These three leaders were all experts at the Heavenly God Realm. Looking at Qin Changge, who was only at the Divine Illumination Realm, they couldn't help but sneer.

At this moment, Li Shuangyuan, the leader of the Blood Cloud Bandits, looked at Qin Changge and said, "What are you doing here, kid?"

Li Shuangyuan was completely wrapped in white paper.

At this moment, Qin Changge calmly said, "Hand over all the information about the Primordial Profound Yellow Root, and then obediently go to the Golden Knife Guard's cell in White Sand City, and I will spare your lives."

Upon hearing this, the top leader Li Shuangyuan, the second leader Wang Yuelong, and the third leader Wu Guanfeng all burst into laughter, thinking that Qin Changge, this young Golden Knife Guard, was having some unrealistic ideas.

Li Shuangyuan said, "Boy, do you think you're invincible just because you have the imperial court backing you? Let me tell you, the essence of this world is—whoever has the bigger fist is the most powerful."

As Li Shuang finished speaking, countless sheets of white paper flew everywhere. These sheets of white paper were all created by the White Paper Domain, and each sheet of white paper was ten thousand times more powerful than any other ordinary sheet of white paper.

Upon seeing this, Qin Changge clapped his hands, and hundreds of talismans rose into the air, forming a stark contrast with the white paper. On one side were white paper, and on the other were yellow paper; they appeared somewhat evenly matched.
