It had been calculated before that the Duke's men would come to rob food tonight, and Zhang Liang would be unable to help.

"I will protect the village this time!"

Heng Yu roared, raised the holy sword, and looked eager to try.

"Villagers of Connor Village, please harvest the fields and make room for the airship."

After hearing Zhang Liang's words, the villagers nodded in agreement without saying a word.

Then, Zhang Liang looked at Hua Nishang. Before he could speak, Hua Nishang said in advance: "I will lead the people to the airship and wait."

Seeing that everyone was taking action, Zhang Liang closed his eyes, sat cross-legged, placed the holy sword horizontally in front of him, and condensed his fighting spirit.

······

Maze Town.

A man in armor was walking on the street, holding his chin and muttering, "Who is Zhang Liang?"

This person, Zhao Gao, is investigating Heng Yu under the orders of Prince Tianlong.

However, every time he asked about Hengxu, he would hear Zhang Liang's name.

He had heard the rumors about Zhang Liang no less than ten times, and the results were surprisingly consistent: he was incredibly strong.

In order to clarify the relationship between Zhang Liang and Heng Yu, he still needs to investigate here.

Some dark corner.

A man in a black robe and a black hat was monitoring Zhao Gao's every move.

This man is a general under the command of the Dragon King, Miu Si.

While investigating Zhang Liang, he accidentally met Zhao Gao and began to monitor him.

After seeing Zhao Gao walking away, he immediately followed him.

Section 1#Volume 3: Position Change: Chapter 380: Zhang Liang's Weakness

Maze Town, afternoon.

Zhao Gao listened to the people's advice and came to the Tianming Building.

"Is this man's strength so outrageous?"

Inside the hall, the screen just played the scene where Zhang Liang split the maze town.

Zhao Gao raised his head and was frightened by the looping image, and stood there in a daze.

From the moment he entered here, everyone felt an extremely powerful aura from him, and his realm was definitely at the high level of the imperial domain.

The reason why they could make such a conclusion was that this man's aura was even stronger than that of General Hu, whom they were familiar with.

In addition to this aura, what attracts people most is the full body armor he wears, which is very exaggerated.

Judging from the clanging sound he made when he walked, this set of armor weighs at least 500KG.

The people around looked at Zhao Gao and started talking.

"Who is he? An adventurer?"

"I don't know. He must be from outside. We don't have adventurers dressed like this here."

When the word "outsider" was mentioned, people smiled and guessed his identity.

"Oh! He should be an adventurer who came to participate in the suppression of the maze? But when he arrived, he found that the maze had already been suppressed."

"Look at his shocked expression. It seems he is right."

"Haha, you're here just now, the daylily is already cold."

Afterwards, these people walked towards Zhao Gao with some pride, intending to brag to him.

"Brother, what are you doing here?"

Seeing a group of people coming over, Zhao Gao gave the answer he had prepared long ago.

"I'm a challenger, and I specifically look for strong people to fight against."

In order to more easily obtain information from the people, he pretended to be humble and kind.

No one was surprised to hear the word "challenger". After all, there are quite a few such people.

Rather, looking at his exaggerated and fully armed appearance, he really fits the image of a "challenger".

In a world where martial arts are respected, there will naturally be many martial arts fanatics.

In order to make themselves stronger, they will travel around the world and compete with various strong people.

"Are you going to challenge His Royal Highness the Prince?"

After hearing the people's questions, Zhao Gao thought for a moment and asked back:

"What do you think my chances of winning are?"

"Forget it. He will beat you so hard that you will doubt your life."

Afterwards, the people started a wave of exaggerated boasting, and Zhao Gao was stunned by them.

What? Zhang Liang is so strong that he can move mountains and his courage is unparalleled. With one sword, he can break an abyss ten thousand feet deep.

In general, the more exaggerated the better.

Zhao Gao was wearing full body armor, so no one could see his face and no one knew what his expression was.

In fact, Zhao Gao swallowed his saliva inside, and cold sweat kept sliding down his cheeks.

Thinking that these people were ordinary people and there was no benefit in lying to him, Zhao Gao took this as true.

Afterwards, Zhao Gao tactfully asked about the relationship between Zhang Liang and Heng Yu.

Everyone told him clearly that Heng Yu was Zhang Liang's partner.

only···

When they said this, they smiled wickedly and had their own guesses.

"That girl looks like a guard or a knight, but I don't think so."

"I think so too. His Royal Highness is so strong, why would he need any guards?"

"Indeed, he has announced to the whole world that anyone who dares to hurt his companions will be killed, no matter how strong they are. So the girl is the one who should be protected, right?"

Then, everyone changed the topic and discussed the relationship between them.

Just then, the bard joined the conversation.

Based on his rich experience, the bard speculated that there must be a grand story between them that is unknown to the world.

Otherwise, how could she calmly compete with the fairy-like female swordsman and Bai Dieshang.

With the addition of the bard, the situation became out of control, and he kept imagining the story between Zhang Liang and Heng Yu.

People became interested as they listened to the fictional story.

But Zhao Gao didn't want to listen to such nonsense and turned around to leave.

Perhaps sensing that Zhao Gao was about to leave, the bard immediately shouted to him, "If you want to know more, go to the blacksmith shop and find Duan Cao! He is very familiar with His Royal Highness the Prince!"

"Thank you."

Zhao Gao waved his hand and left the Tianming Building.

And Miusi, who was monitoring Zhao Gao, wrote down all the people's words in a small notebook.

Similarly, as a general of the Tianlong clan, he was also extremely shocked by Zhang Liang's strength.

On the way, Zhao Gao asked about the location of the blacksmith shop, then he held his chin and walked towards it while thinking.

Zhao Gao judged that if he wanted to attack Heng Yu and steal the holy sword, he would have to rely on Zhang Liang.

His strength was beyond Zhao Gao's understanding.

Based on the information obtained from the people, Zhao Gao was completely unable to estimate the upper limit of Zhang Liang's strength.

In the Tianlong Empire, the awakened Tianlong clan is called the 68th Star of Tianxiu.

Just as the name suggests, there are a total of 68 people in the Awakened Sky Dragon Clan, and Zhao Gao ranks 15th. He is a strong man who can stand on his own among the Awakened Sky Dragon Clan and his strength should not be underestimated.

Even though he was so powerful, he became a little scared after hearing the rumors about Zhang Liang.

That’s right, as an awakened Celestial Dragon, he had an instinctive fear of a human.

And this was without any fighting.

He couldn't help but think, besides the Three Saints, there are actually such powerful humans...

incredible.

Regardless of whether Zhang Liang's strength was true or not, the cautious Zhao Gao did not intend to confront Zhang Liang head-on, but wanted to find Zhang Liang's weakness to threaten him.

After a while, Zhao Gao arrived at the blacksmith shop.

Before he could push open the door, the loud voices of two men came from inside.

"Lord Su Su, please don't be angry. His Royal Highness the Prince certainly didn't forget you on purpose!"

"That's right. He is the prince. He must have some very important strategic plan in keeping you here."

"No way! He just forgot about me!"

Su Su sat on the stool, too lazy to pay attention to Duan Cao and Grum. She snorted and turned away.

Hearing that their conversation was about Zhang Liang, Zhao Gao did not push the door open, but concealed his presence and went to the window, secretly observing inside.

Duan Cao and Grum saw that Su Su was not only not angry but also refused to listen to anything, and cold sweat ran down their cheeks.

She thought, it’s been a good day, why hasn’t His Royal Highness the Prince come to pick her up yet?

Could it be that... he really had completely forgotten about Lady Su Su?

Thinking of this, Duan Cao and Grum swallowed.

You know, Su Su is the immortal phoenix, a legendary beast, whose combat power is enough to rival or even surpass the sanctuary level.

Ordinary people, no, even the current emperor would worship her when they saw her, but how could His Royal Highness the Prince forget about it?

How off the mark!

I thought that it was no use going on like this, I had to please her.

Duan Cao rolled his eyes and continued:

"Master Su Su, think about it. You are absolutely irreplaceable to His Royal Highness the Prince. How could he forget you?"

Seeing Duan Cao winking at him, Grum quickly echoed:

"That's right. Think about it carefully. Did he ask you to complete an important task here, but you forgot about it?"

Zhao Gao, who was standing outside, carefully observed the expressions of Duan Cao and Grum.

He is cautious and knows how to read people's expressions.

It was obvious that they were just trying to coax the girl.

Based on their conversation, the corners of Zhao Gao's mouth rose unconsciously.

One thing is certain, that exquisitely dressed red-haired girl must be very important to Zhang Liang.

People said that Zhang Liang and Duan Cao were very familiar with each other, and handing her over to Duan Cao might have been Zhang Liang's arrangement.

Zhao Gao speculated that he didn't want such a young child to be in danger, so he left her here.

He did not sense any energy fluctuations from Su Su, it was so calm that it was a little scary.

Zhao Gao had seen many such people, all of whom were descendants of wealthy families.

They don't need to train or improve their realm. The power and assets of their family are enough for them to live a wealthy life.

So, she is just an ordinary child.

This can be inferred from the guilty expressions on Duan Cao and Grumm's faces.

Those "strategic deployment" and "certain important matters" are very intimidating words, and they are just lines for playing house.
