The Martial Saint of Humanity, I Have Transformed Low-Level Martial Arts Into Immortal Martial Arts - Chapter 95

Chapter 95: Heavenly Kings and Generals! Back into the Tiger’s Den!

“Run… quickly!”

Several Evergreen Army martial artists hurriedly helped Tong Junxiong, supporting him as he staggered to escape.

“We… we should flee too!”

On the carriage, Chen Yuan Zheng exclaimed urgently, wanting to escape along with the other two blacksmiths.

“A single finger… can’t even move!”

But soon, the three became frantic, as no matter how much they struggled, their hands and feet seemed unresponsive, leaving them sitting in the carriage, unable to move an inch.

“Cleansing Marrow Martial Artists… are vastly stronger than that Murong An’s Cleansing Marrow Martial Artist!”

Su Hao felt an immense weight in his heart, sensing a tidal-like force firmly locking onto the carriage; this sensation felt all too familiar.

In his previous battle with Murong An, the opponent had also employed a similar tactic—this was a unique ability of Cleansing Marrow Stage martial artists, a way to project their spirit and Qi to lock onto enemies, allowing them to judge the opponent’s moves and strength!

From Su Hao’s perception and comparison, the blue-clothed middle-aged man’s Qi was significantly stronger than Murong An’s. Though both were Cleansing Marrow Stage practitioners, the gap in combat power was likely vast.

Cleansing Marrow Stage martial artists can live for two hundred years, and there’s a considerable difference between those newly entering the Cleansing Marrow Stage and those who have transcended for over a hundred years—it’s not surprising at all!

“If I were to fight him with all my strength, utilizing the Molten Fire Golden Body at the Great Accomplishment level, along with my Flood Dragon Tendon and Astral Strength, it would be hard to say who would come out on top…”

Su Hao silently estimated in his heart.

This blue-clothed middle-aged man was a much more powerful Cleansing Marrow Stage martial artist than Murong An, but Su Hao still felt confident in his ability to engage him in battle!

But after glancing at Chen Yuan Zheng and the others nearby, he understood that if the two sides were to engage, Chen Yuan Zheng and the others would undoubtedly face death. Thus, he suppressed his impulse for the moment and prepared to see what the other party’s intentions were.

“You four might as well get off the carriage and take a look.”

The energy that had been locking onto Su Hao and the others gradually retracted, and outside the carriage, the blue-clad middle-aged man spoke in a loud voice.

“Let’s… go down and take a look.”

Chen Yuan Zheng and the others exchanged glances, now left with no choice but to grit their teeth and descend from the carriage with somewhat weak legs.

“Uh… may I ask your esteemed name? What insights do you have in calling us?”

Chen Yuan Zheng, being older and more composed, spoke very politely.

Given that the other party could easily injure Tong Junxiong, a Martial Artist of the Transforming Tendon stage, leaving them without the courage to fight and forcing them to flee, his strength was undoubtedly unfathomable. However, it seemed the other party had no malicious intent, so it would be prudent to first understand their purpose.

The blue-clad middle-aged man slightly nodded and said, “I am Wang Yongsi, a heavenly general under King Huang.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Chen Yuan Zheng and the others’ faces instantly turned pale.

King Huang, in Evergreen County and even the surrounding areas, could undoubtedly refer to only one person—the supreme commander of the Black Deer Army, Huang Xuanba! The other party was from the Black Deer Army!

“A heavenly general… is a title awarded to the elite of the Black Deer Army.”

Su Hao was equally surprised, but he also understood better.

The blue-clad middle-aged man Wang Yongsi was one of the most elite experts of the Black Deer Army; no wonder he held such power. However, judging by his demeanor, he did not seem to be intent on killing them; his primary goal was likely focused on them, otherwise, he wouldn’t have easily let go of Tong Junxiong and the others.

“I have come personally to invite you all to a camp of our Black Deer Army to forge a batch of weapons and armor, and I hope you all can oblige me with your presence.”

Wang Yongsi opened his mouth, appearing very polite and courteous.

But everyone knew that Wang Yongsi was not someone to be easily dealt with. Although he was being polite to them now, if they refused, it would be seen as a rejection. Tong Junxiong and the other elites of the Evergreen Army would not be able to contend with him!

Chen Yuan Zheng cautiously said, “The Black Deer Army is also filled with talent. I wonder what weapons or armor Lord Wang requires our assistance in forging?”

Wang Yongsi’s gaze settled on Su Hao, who was pale and appeared frightened. He said, “This must be Master Su Hao, right? We have acquired a batch of rare metals… which need to be forged into weapons and armor by a Grandmaster Blacksmith. An ordinary blacksmith doesn’t possess that level of skill.”

“I see… so the Black Deer Army wants to create a batch of initiated grade weapons and armor?”

Su Hao suddenly understood why someone like Wang Yongsi would personally come to see them.

The Black Deer Army had obtained a batch of rare metals suitable for crafting initiated grade weapons, but they needed a Grandmaster Blacksmith to fully utilize them. As one of the few Grandmaster Blacksmiths in Evergreen County, Su Hao had caught the attention of the Black Deer Army.

It seemed that the Evergreen Army also had spies from the Black Deer Army, for as soon as Tong Junxiong and the others brought Su Hao out of the city, they were intercepted on the way!

“Then perhaps… we should go take a look for now. Creating initiated grade weapons could help improve my ‘refinement,’ enhance my potential, and during this time, I could also delve into the Iron Head Technique, pushing the Molten Fire Golden Body to the Perfection Realm! At that time, even if Wang Yongsi tries to betray us, I would have complete confidence in taking him down!”

On the surface, Su Hao appeared calm, but inside, his thoughts raced.

Now was not a good time to confront Wang Yongsi and the others. First, he could not protect Chen Yuan Zheng and the others, and second, he had no absolute chance of winning. Even if he could manage to kill Wang Yongsi on the spot, his identity would be exposed, making it impossible for him to pursue his training safely. The Black Deer Army would certainly retaliate fiercely against him and the Forging Weaponry Workshop!

Therefore, it would be most prudent to endure for now and wait for a foolproof opportunity before taking action!

Then, Wang Yongsi continued, “You four, come with me for a moment. Once the matter is complete, you can leave, and we will not hold you back. We will send people to escort you back and offer you generous rewards, so I hope you will honor me with your presence.”

The group exchanged glances, seeing the helplessness and bitterness in each other’s eyes.

Of course, they did not want to be entangled with this rebel ‘Black Deer Army,’ but the situation was clearly pressing. They had no room to refuse and could only follow Wang Yongsi, hoping to create the armor and trust that he would keep his promise to let them leave afterward.”I hope Lord Wang can keep his promise, and we will certainly do our utmost to fulfill the entrusted task.” Chen Yuan Zheng quietly discussed with Su Hao and the others before finally nodding in agreement.

“Good, everyone please get in the carriage.”

The decision made by the group of blacksmiths did not surprise Wang Yongsi at all. In the face of life-and-death pressure, how many people could refuse? He immediately said.

Su Hao and the others returned to the carriage, while one of Wang Yongsi’s subordinates drove the carriage, taking everyone along another mountain road.

“Sigh… Li Fei, your bad luck with words,” said the middle-aged blacksmith, glaring at the young blacksmith with frustration. Before their departure, this young blacksmith had mentioned that things outside were quite chaotic, and now they had indeed run into trouble, ending up in the notorious Black Deer Army’s hands!

The young blacksmith was also in despair, saying, “If I can’t go back… would my two wives at home marry someone else? I don’t want to be wearing a hat!”

Everyone had their own thoughts and was filled with worry.

Su Hao, however, closed his eyes to rest and continually pondered and deduced the ‘Molten Fire Golden Body’ in his mind.

For Su Hao, he had already experienced many storms and was no longer the naïve newcomer who would lose his composure over a minor issue.

As long as he had enough strength, he believed that all unexpected events could be turned to safety!
