Chapter 159 - 158 The Gatekeeper
"Who is this intruder! How dare you barge into the Marquis Mansion!"
The entire Lanling City was granted to the Xiao Family as their fief. Entering the city is as if you’ve trespassed into the Marquis Mansion.
Defeating the four generals with the Five Tigers Breaking Door Saber, once past the knocking threshold, an Outer Door steward immediately appeared.
This person was a Martial General who had used a Divine Infant Pill. Standing eight feet tall, with crimson-purple skin, a rugged appearance, wearing Mountain Pattern Treasure Armor with divine light flickering, and six horizontal knives on his back, each five feet long, all at the Court Ceremony Level, dazzlingly colorful with different attributed special enchantments, he looked like a peacock spreading its tail, or a general on stage.
His entire equipment set was complete, not to mention, he rode a Five-Colored Lion. Its mane flashed with divine light as a protective shield, clearly a Nascent Soul Realm Great Demon Divine Beast. The whole person sparkled like a light bulb, just looking at his equipment made one’s scalp tingle.
Tie Dan was speechless as well. Though the Immortal Palace’s dress-up was ostentatious and flashy, it included many who didn’t match their talents, drunkards, embroidered pillows posing as something they’re not, which greatly lowered their average combat strength. Among the same realm, they were relatively the weakest of the Three Great Sects.
However, the great general in front was clearly not among them. Though he looked arrogant with his nose in the air, he surely had the capital. Being capable of sitting steadily on that lion wasn’t something an ordinary person could do.
Moreover, his complexion had been refined to a purplish-black, clearly having condensed his Gang Power into his bones and blood, exerting immense pressure with every gesture, probably a genuine Martial God Level expert, the Xiao Family’s trump card for guarding the gate.
Yet, a respectable Nascent Soul Martial God, who humbled himself to guard the Xiao Family Marquis Mansion - he was definitely a bootlicker. Of course, it brought him a full set of Divine Equipment Spirit Beast which wasn’t a loss. Furthermore, he was on his home turf; even if the old tree planter and Ruan Family’s patriarch came personally, it wouldn’t necessarily be advantageous.
Sigh, only a few days, and I’ve encountered yet another Nascent Soul Realm expert.
