Chapter 42 Rushing to the Imperial Capital
"Bang!", an old man in the main hall of the Zhao family slapped the table in front of him fiercely, and the fine purple gold wooden table worth hundreds of gold coins was scattered all over the ground!
"The head of the family is angry!" several people in the hall hurriedly whispered.
"Hmph! A small mongrel of the Ning family not only killed the five strong men of my Zhao family, but also robbed the goods worth millions of gold coins, if this little bastard is allowed to enter the imperial capital safely, and on behalf of the Ning family to participate in the Dragon Festival at the end of the year and win the first place, our entire Zhao family will become the laughing stock of the empire!" Zhao Shengcun, the head of the Zhao family, turned pale, gritted his teeth and said hatefully.
"Family master, I will personally lead someone to hunt down and kill the little mongrel of the Ning family, and I will definitely not let him enter the imperial capital!" said a strong man under the hall loudly.
"Family Master, I'm afraid this matter is not so simple! Even if the little bastard of the Ning family has the ability to kill the three hundred guards of the caravan, how did he take the goods from the hundreds of wagons in half an hour?" said an old man with a long beard.
"You mean the Ning family made a move?" said the head of the family, Zhao Shengcun, frowned. Although Ning Lin did not return to the imperial capital to worship his ancestors, he was the seed of the Ning family anyway, and it was understandable for the Ning family to help Ning Lin behind his back, but if it was really the Ning family's shot, it would probably not be easy to intercept and kill Ning Lin again!
"Regardless of his Ning family's haunting and attacking, I personally took three hundred iron guards out of the city to hunt down that little bastard, I don't believe that he really has three heads and six arms!" shouted the strong man who spoke just now.
The Zhao family's iron guards are the honorary imperial capital, and even have a great reputation in the entire glacier empire! At least one-third of the Zhao family's current power is fought by relying on three thousand iron guards! These three thousand iron guards are at least strong and dirty warriors, armed to the teeth by the Zhao family, all the iron armor is made of fine iron, and the sharp weapons cannot break the defense, each with a pole and two horizontal knives in their hands, as long as a hundred people charge, there will be the momentum of thousands of troops and horses, and the fierce bandits who died in the hands of the Zhao family's iron guards over the years have already broken through the 100,000 mark!
"Without the emperor's order, it is not a major matter related to the survival of my Zhao clan, and the iron guard cannot be dispatched easily!" The head of the family vetoed the strong man's proposal.
Although the Zhao family's iron guards are powerful, they have also aroused the vigilance of the royal family, fortunately, there are only three thousand iron guards, and they can't shake the status of the royal family, if the Zhao family has 100,000 people, it is enough to sweep the entire glacier empire!
Zhao Shengcun knows that the Zhao family seems to be under one person and above ten thousand people, but not to mention the royal family, just in this imperial capital, there are several major families such as the Ning family that are not weaker than the Zhao family, once the royal family is dissatisfied and unites several other major families to jointly suppress the Zhao family, the Zhao family, which has been inherited for thousands of years, may disappear in a blink of an eye!
"Then let Jiewei go out, I believe that with the strength of Jiewei's half-step immortal, killing that little bastard of the Ning family will definitely not be wasted!" said the long-bearded elder.
"It's not proper!" Someone in the hall immediately objected, saying, "Jie Wei practiced in retreat in the back mountain a month ago, maybe this time there is hope to condense his divine consciousness and break through to become an immortal, if you disturb Jie Wei at this time, if it affects his cultivation, it will really outweigh the losses!"
Everyone present thought that if the family could have an immortal in charge, their status would immediately rise a lot. What's more important is that Zhao Jiewei apprenticed to a loose cultivator immortal, he does not belong to any immortal sect, and he is subject to a lot less constraints, once Zhao Jiewei changes from a war spear boy to a war spear immortal, even if the royal family has to look at the Zhao family differently, then the entire glacier empire will be the opponent of the war spear immortal except for the worship of the mid-stage cultivation god in the palace?
"Jie Wei's cultivation must not be delayed! Fifth Elder, you will put down all my Zhao family's eyeliner, as long as that little mongrel of the Ning family enters the imperial capital within a hundred miles, I will know the Tao as soon as possible! Third Elder, once you get the news of the little bastard of the Ning family, you will personally lead the five worshippers of the Offering Hall and fifty iron guards to disguise themselves out of the city, and you will definitely rob and kill the little bastard of the Ning family outside the city, and you must not let him enter the imperial capital!"
"Yes!" The bearded old man who spoke just now was none other than the fifth elder of the Zhao family, and the strong man was the third elder. When the two heard the patriarch's order, they hurriedly agreed.
Three days later, in the early morning, on the official road less than 100 miles away from the imperial city, Ning Lin was riding a foodie, and Xian'er was squatting on his shoulder.
But this time it wasn't just Ning Lin alone, there were more than a dozen people riding shadowless horses around him, everyone was talking and laughing all the way, so lively!
"Ning Lin, now your reputation as a killer is well-known in our empire, far surpassing the name of my ice blade boy, I don't know how many people want to see what you, the third killer on the list of sons, look like!" Ning Bing said with a smile.
"Cousin has won the prize!" Ning Lin shook his head with a smile.
"Fourth brother is not exaggerating, when we came out of the imperial capital, I don't know how many people were inquiring about your situation. The fairies on the fairy list and the ladies of the major families all want to see you, I guarantee that as soon as you enter the imperial capital, the onlookers on the street can block the entire imperial capital street!"
After Ning Lin robbed and killed the Zhao family's caravan in Taiguang County, the Ning family immediately rushed to Taiguang County to find Ning Lin.
Ning Lin had already used his strength to attract the attention of the entire Ning family, and specially sent Ning Bing and Ning Shan to meet him!
As long as Ning Lin can be guaranteed to arrive in the imperial capital safely, I am afraid that there will be nothing to do with the Zhao family in this year's Tenglong Club!
Although there is a rule at the Dragon Festival, contestants are not allowed to deliberately kill each other. But the top three of the Tenglong Club will be accepted as disciples by the Xianmen, once they enter the Xianmen, it is a step to the sky, who dares to stay at this time?
The battle of life and death will inevitably miss, the annual dragon will kill and injured the contestants account for more than thirty percent, the more to the most rear, the more fierce the competition, especially the major families that have long had a grudge will make full use of the dragon once every three years to kill the young players of the rival family, without the rise of the younger generation, any family will gradually decline!
With the rise of the Zhao family in the past ten years, the Ning family has not had a good time. At the last Tenglong meeting, three children of the Ning clan died at the hands of the Zhao clan, and there were more than 20 people who were seriously injured and lightly injured.
In this year's Tenglong Club, Ning Bing was unable to participate because he was too old, but the Zhao family's Haigongzi was strong and was already standing on the edge of the blood coagulation period.
But with the rise of Ning Lin, the Ning family saw hope again! The first appearance, he killed Hai Gongzi, and then abolished Feng Gongzi, and even the old powerhouse Zhao Renhu also lost his hand, and then Ning Lin continuously killed the strong people in the Zhao blood coagulation period, and was able to retreat with his whole body, so that the Ning family has a more sober understanding of Ning Lin, as long as there is Ning Lin to participate in the cold, the first place in this year's Tenglong Club will definitely belong to the Ning family! And as long as Ning Lin participates, who would dare to kill the Ning family's participating disciples? Otherwise, as soon as Ning Lin meets Ning Lin, he will wait to collect the corpse!
The head of the Ning family has even begun to plan, taking this year's Tenglong Club as the best opportunity for the Ning clan to train his troops, and the disciples of the Ning family can rest assured at the Tenglong Club to increase their actual combat experience, but the other party has concerns and does not dare to easily kill the killer, where can such a good opportunity go to find it?
However, there is a premise for all this, which is to ensure that Ning Lin can arrive at the imperial capital safely and enter the Ning family!
As long as Ning Lin worships his ancestors, with the strength that the Ning family has accumulated over thousands of years, the Zhao family will never dare to kill Ning Lin again!
