“Argh .
It raised its head and opened its bloody mouth, which was like a dark red Black hole. The single eye on its forehead trembled continuously and shot out a golden light, which hit the city wall.
The array patterns on the wall lit up, and an invisible barrier appeared.
The golden light crashed into the barrier, causing light fragments to fly up. The wall cracked and countless small cracks appeared.
Since the Battle of Shanhai Pass, the Northern Territory welcomed its first large-scale battle. There were a total of three rank-3 masters who participated in the battle, and one unknown master who was hidden in the dark.
In the Chu Prefecture city, many Jianghu men rushed out of their inns and houses and looked in the direction of the city gate in shock.
The rumbling of cannons, the clear sound of crossbows, the sound of horse hooves, and the roars of the guards on the city wall … And the terrifying Qi fluctuations from the battle between high-level powerhouses.
These were clearly heard and perceived by the Jianghu people in the city. It made them inevitably afraid, and they only wanted to hide under their beds and shiver.
what’s going on? the Barbarian race is attacking the Chu Prefecture city? ”
“Damn it, this group of barbarians actually dared to attack Chu Prefecture city.
Do they want to start an all-out war with great Feng?”
“Let’s go. We’ll go to the city wall and defend it together.”
At the entrance of the Chu Prefecture city’s largest restaurant, a few people from the martial arts world were stomping their feet and cursing. At this moment, they saw the innkeeper and the waiter walking out of the inn with a wooden expression.
He saw the local residents walking out of the houses along the street. Their faces were pale and their eyes were empty. They lacked spiritual energy and looked like The Walking Dead.
More and more people walked out of their houses and came to the streets, looking at the sky with blank expressions.
Above their heads, fine blood-red light seeped out and floated into the sky. Then, they gathered together and condensed into a huge blood ball.
From within their bodies, black shadows were pulled out and sank into the ground. During the process, the black shadows kept struggling and wailed, ”
“So I’m already dead …”
“I’m dead? I’m dead!”
“I can’t accept this, I can’t accept this …”
In various parts of the city, the commoners and martial artists who had entered the Chu Prefecture city after the massacre witnessed this terrifying
scene. Their hearts turned cold.
The people of the Chu Prefecture city were all dead?
Who had they been talking to, and who had they been with for more than a month?
It turns out that we’ve been living in a ghost city for more than a month .
Great fear exploded in the hearts of the few living people.
In the relay station.
The members of the diplomatic mission came to the street in fear and trepidation. They looked at the pale human figures and stood there woodenly, looking up at the sky.
Blood Qi was drawn out from the top of their heads and surged into the air.Black shadows were stripped from their bodies and swept into the ground. “So, the place where the bloody massacre took place was Chu Prefecture city,”
Yang Yan muttered.
“Animal!”
With a sudden roar, the Deputy of the Supreme Court kneeled on the ground, tears streaming down his face.
Chu Zhou city has. population of 380000 and 380000 resentful souls … Throughout the six hundred years of Da Feng, no one had ever committed such atrocities. I, I will return to the capital to impeach King Huai until I die.”
He clenched his fist and pounded the ground. With an ” ah “, he started to cry.
Censor Liu’s lips trembled. how dare he? how dare he … As the Prince of Da Feng, he was loved and supported by the people of the North. How could he lay his hands on these innocent people? King Huai’s death is not to be regretted, his death is not to be regretted …”
Constable Chen’s eyes were bloodshot, and his hand that was holding the knife was trembling.
Yang Yan looked at them and was slightly moved.
These civil officials were sneaky and loved to scheme against each other, but they were not completely immoral. In their hearts, they still had a complex inspired by the books of the sages.
It was both good and bad.
“What does King Huai want to do?” Constable Chen asked, gritting his teeth.
he might be advancing to the second stage, ” Yang Yan muttered. this is just my guess.
Advancing to the second stage … The judge of the Supreme Court, the two imperial censors, and Constable Chen were shocked.
If, if King Huai really used this to advance to rank two, then, then even if they exposed this matter and submitted a letter of impeachment, would the Emperor punish them?
Could the Lords deal with King Huai?
What kind of concept was a rank-2 martial artist? Da Feng had not produced a rank-2 martial artist for three hundred years.
In the entire land of the nine prefectures, second-grade martial artists were already extinct. At least, the Barbarian race and the demon race in the North did not have any second-grade martial artists.
If King Huai could advance to the second stage, would massacring the entire city still be a crime? Even if it was a crime, who had the ability to punish him?
His Majesty and the other Dukes would probably have no choice but to accept it. And once the Emperor and the Dukes compromised, even the supervisor could only consider the big picture.
Was it worth it to use the lives of 380000 people in exchange for a rank-2?
It was very worth it.
Censor Liu took a deep breath. if King Huai advances to the second rank, I’ll spill my blood all over the throne room and prove my innocence with my death.
“Is there no one who can stop him?” Constable Chen asked in a deep voice. Who in the Northern Territory can stop the North vanquishing Prince …”
No. Yang Yan shook his head. who in the Northern Territory is stronger than the North-guarding King? ‘
There was nothing else.
No one could stop the North vanquishing Prince. No one in Chu Zhou could be an obstacle to the North vanquishing Prince’s promotion.
No one could do it, not the diplomatic mission, not the martial artists. They could only watch the North vanquishing Prince’s promotion.
“I suddenly feel sorry for Xu Qi ‘an’s lack of strength …” Constable Chen suddenly said.
When everyone looked at him, he said in a self-deprecating manner, “in the past, I was jealous that he was famous in the Buddhist League.” They were jealous that he had suppressed the outstanding disciples of Haotian Taoism in the battle between heaven and man and had made a name for himself. But now, I only hate the fact that his cultivation is not enough.
“Because if it were him, he would definitely not sit by and do nothing. He would have even drawn his saber against King Huai. Am I right, yang Jinluo?” Everyone looked at Yang Yan in unison.
Yang Yan was in a daze. He seemed to have thought of something and sighed. “Duke of Wei said that his greatest weakness is his courage. Whether it’s when he killed his superior or when he blocked the rebel army in Yunzhou.” That’s right, that man was a pain in the ass, a stone in the latrine pit, smelly and hard.
The Civil officials who hated him often said, “this person will sooner or later pay the price for his temper.”
However, sometimes, it was precisely this kind of person who became the ” Savior ” in their hearts. He was the person they hoped to call for at certain times.
“The late Emperor was wrong,” imperial censor Liu muttered.”lf Da Feng really had a divine general, I think it would be Xu Qi ‘an, not King Huai.”
It was a pity that he was still young and had yet to mature.
The Deputy of the Supreme Court revealed a vicious expression.”l only wish for the barbarians to break through the city and kill North vanquishing Prince. If no one in great Feng can stop us, then let the barbarians do it.
