The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 3246: Chapter 3221: The Death of Zhao Zhou

"As for the two of you, Brother Zhang, I’ll leave it to you to handle. Whether to kill them or keep them, it’s up to you."

Lin Bai put away the Demonic Sword, choosing not to kill Zhao Zhou and Zhao Yang, leaving their lives in Zhang Zhengqing’s hands.

Zhao Zhou and Zhao Yang hurriedly looked towards Zhang Zhengqing.

Zhao Zhou shouted, "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, spare my life! Don’t you remember? When we were young, we drank together, played cards together, we grew up together in Thousand Leaves City!"

Zhao Yang also shouted, "Brother Zhang, I have no resentment against you. Tackling your Zhang family is all the Family’s intention. As a peripheral disciple, I have no power to resist the Family’s order. I plead with Brother Zhang to understand the greater good and spare my life!"

Zhang Zhengqing looked at Zhao Zhou and Zhao Yang, his expression softened slightly, but then became sharp, and said coldly, "Indeed, Zhao Zhou, you and I grew up in Thousand Leaves City, climbed walls together, stole Elixir Pills from the Family together, even drank flower wine together. But who would have thought we would come to this situation today!"

"Over the years, the Zhao Family and my Zhang family has been like fire and water!"

"Our friendship was already completely burned away in this flame!"

"Now, all that remains between us is hatred!"

Zhang Zhengqing looked at Zhao Zhou, speaking coldly.

Zhao Zhou heard Zhang Zhengqing’s words and helplessly lowered his head with a bitter smile, "Suffering the consequences of my actions? Alright, I understand, then please, Brother Zhang, for the sake of our childhood acquaintance, make it quick!"

Zhang Zhengqing took out the Sharp Sword from the Storage Bag, walked to Zhao Zhou, his expression unchanged.

With one swing, he directly beheaded Zhao Zhou and Zhao Yang.

Their blood spurted, helplessly falling to the ground, dead beyond doubt.

After killing Zhao Zhou and Zhao Yang, Zhang Zhengqing came before Lin Bai, clasping his fists, saying, "Brother Lin, thank you so much this time. Otherwise, we would have faced grave danger today."

Lin Bai looked around at the surrounding four Mountains, where many Warriors were still watching, and said, "This place is not safe; we should leave here first and then plan accordingly!"

Zhang Zhengqing glanced around, nodded slightly, and left with Lin Bai.

As they left, Lin Bai collected all the Storage Bags from Zhao Zhou, Senior Brother Cao, and others. They were geniuses within Longhe County, and there must be many Treasures in those Storage Bags. Even if not many Treasures, there would surely be Spirit Crystals.

Lin Bai was currently most lacking Spirit Crystals.

The group left the place, flying for a time, then arriving in a Dense Forest, resting for a while.

"Brother Zhang, how did you encounter Zhao Zhou and the others again?" Lin Bai curiously asked at this time.

Zhang Zhengqing smiled bitterly, "Originally, after we parted ways with you, we intended to travel around the White Dragon Secret Realm, hoping to find some Treasures and Elixir Pills. But unexpectedly, Zhao Zhou left some means on us, making it easy for them to find us."

"Hence, after arriving here, we were constantly hunted by the Zhao Family’s Warriors."

"Eventually, Senior Brother Cao from Chaotic Heaven Sect and Gao Li joined in, and we fled for a day and a night, but were eventually chased down."

"But now, it’s alright, they are all dead."

Zhang Zhengqing said with a bitter smile.

Lin Bai suddenly realized and said, "I see. I was wondering, the White Dragon Secret Realm is so vast, finding someone here is like Ascending to Heaven. How did the Zhao family and Senior Brother Cao find you so quickly? It turns out Zhao Zhou left some means on you, enabling them to find you so quickly!"

Zhang Zhengqing then said to Lin Bai, "Brother Lin, you killed Cao Qian of the Chaotic Heaven Sect, they surely won’t spare you. In the coming days, you should stay with us. We’ll seek out the Elders of the Zhang family. With the Elders present, even if the Chaotic Heaven Sect wants to act against you, they will need some means!"

"If you’re not with us, it’s too dangerous. Whether encountering Strong Ones from the Zhao family or Chaotic Heaven Sect, your life will be at risk!"

Zhang Zhengqing said to Lin Bai.

Zhang Tian also said, "Yes, Brother Lin, come act with us."

Lin Bai was stunned upon hearing this. He was originally planning to find the treasure point on the map Su Jin left for him, but now Zhang Zhengqing insisted on taking Lin Bai along, which made him somewhat anxious.

Lin Bai certainly could not take them to explore this treasure point; it was entrusted to Lin Bai alone by Su Jin.

If Su Jin wanted the Zhang Family’s Warriors to explore the treasure point together, he would have mentioned it the day Zhangtian Ye and Zhang Zhengqing came to find Lin Bai.

However, Su Jin did not; he waited until Lin Bai was about to depart and no Zhang Family Warriors were around, then handed the map to Lin Bai.

It indicated that Su Jin did not intend for Lin Bai and the Zhang Family’s Warriors to explore together.

Seeing Lin Bai’s hesitant appearance, Zhang Zhengqing asked, "Brother Lin, do you have your own plans?"

Lin Bai shook his head and smiled, "Oh, no, then where do we go next?"

Since he couldn’t leave for now, Lin Bai decided to follow Zhang Zhengqing and others, taking things step by step.

After all, the White Dragon Secret Realm would be open for three months, and it had just begun, so Lin Bai had ample time.

Zhang Zhengqing gathered the group and whispered, "Before we entered the White Dragon Secret Realm, my father gave me some maps, saying there were good things worth seeking out, this essentially serves as our training!"

"The map indicates many good places, but since we arrived in the White Dragon Secret Realm, we’ve been chased by Zhao Zhou and others, without time to explore."

"Now, we finally have some free time, let’s take a look."

While speaking, Zhang Zhengqing took out a map from the Storage Bag, revealing the depiction of the White Dragon Mountain Range.

The Zhang family wasn’t participating in the White Dragon Secret Realm treasure hunt for the first time. Due to multiple participations, they acquired the map of the White Dragon Mountain Range, knowing the area perfectly well.

Lin Bai saw the map marking several positions, seemingly hiding great treasures.

"More than twenty locations!"

"The Elixir Pills and Treasures in these places mostly suit Warriors in the Early Stage of Death Reversal Realm and Wending Realm, so Warriors in the seventh or eighth level of Wending Realm likely wouldn’t be interested."

"Such maps are almost present in the hands of every force entering the White Dragon Secret Realm!"

Zhang Zhengqing said indifferently, "The nearest location to us, it should take us two to three days to reach, let’s go!"

After identifying the position, Zhang Zhengqing immediately led the group, flying up.
