Chapter 714 – Northwest Gazing Sky Wolf
Su Mengmu retracted her blade, turned and looked at her.
An Zheng still sat there drinking and eating, his expression unchanging.
Su Mengmu walked back to An Zheng’s side and carefully looked at him, “I killed with one slash, are you not afraid?”
An Zheng: “Give me a blade, I can also kill with one slash.”
Su Mengmu asked An Zheng: “Do you know who I killed?”
An Zheng shook his head: “Someone who has nothing to do with me.”
Su Mengmu said: “Maybe it has something to do with you? After I killed someone, you’re the only one who can sit here and do nothing. If you have the same origin as them, or perhaps you have a goal, then the next to die will be you. ”
An Zheng said: “Is this the attitude that you should have after drinking my cup of wine?”
Su Mengmu laughed: “You aren’t afraid of this blade, so you don’t have any guilt in your heart.”
He turned around and walked away. “I drank your cup of wine and didn’t kill you, so it seems like you earned a lot.”
An Zheng said: “I was just trying to drink, why are you acting so cocky.”
Su Mengmu turned around and glanced at him: “You followed the group into the city, and the people I killed earlier also followed the group into the city. If I find out what restless thoughts you have, you’ll know how heavy this glass of wine is. ”
An Zheng did not say anything. He picked up the cup that Su Mengmu had used and placed it upside down on the table. He then stood up to pay the bill and walked towards the tavern that was the biggest in the city. And that place is very far from the City Lord’s Mansion.
Su Mengmu frowned slightly as she watched An Zheng leave. Honestly speaking, he was not sure if this young man truly had intentions for Prince Chen Zhongqi or not. If he could see it, he would have already chopped down with his saber.
Inside the tavern, An Zheng asked for the best room, took a hot bath to wash away his two days of fatigue, and then ran all the way out from the Jinling. Only after seven thousand kilometers did he catch up to Chen Zhongqi’s group. He lay in the huge barrel with his eyes closed, feeling the warmth of the hot water.
Until now, there were many people who wanted to kill Chen Zhongqi. Those large clans that had once cooperated with Chen Zhongqi were all afraid that he would send his subordinates over if he were to make a comeback. But even An Zheng did not expect that the first one to take action would actually be those fellows from the Summoning the Spiritual World. The only reason the Summoning the Spiritual World people were contacting Chen Zhongqi was to borrow Chen Zhongqi to merge with the Da Xi government and split the Da Xi from the inside.
It waity that Chen Zhongqi was relegated to being a citizen so quickly. But exactly because of this, Chen Zhongqi definitely knew some secrets of the Summoning the Spiritual World, which was why the summoner of the Summoning the Spiritual World had come to chase after him.
An Zheng got up, dried off the water on his body, changed into a set of clean and refreshing clothes, pushed open the window and stood at the window looking at the bright and bright bright moon. The moon in the sky looked likuge silver plate. An Zheng calculated the time and finally remembered that today was fifteen.
Actually, it was not only the fifteenth of the first month and the fifteenth of the eighth month.
Is the full moon the most suitable night to kill?
Right at this moment, An Zheng felt the violent ripples of natural essence, and then, the blade light came from the City Lord’s Palace. An Zheng watched helplessly as the blade light, like a beam of light, shot straight towards him from that direction, and followed the street towards the east. Everywhere it passed, the earth would be split open, and the houses on both sides of the street would be unable to withstand the blade energy and would be torn apart.
Chen Zhongqi was just like the City Lord’s Mansion, Su Mengmu had just killed a demon beast with one slash, why was there sucuge commotion in the City Lord’s Mansion? This place was already approaching the northwest region, and the closer they got to the northwest, the safer they would be. Who exactly had the guts to actually dare make a move in the City Lord’s Mansion?
An Zheng’s figure flashed, and disappeared. In the entire street, wherever the blade light passed, only the room that An Zheng was in was intact. In the midst of the night, An Zheng was like an eagle flapping its wings, quickly flying across the sky.
There wauge gap in the Mayor’s mansion, and it was the power of that blade.
An Zheng had only just arrived and he could already feel the extremely chaotic nature’s vitality in the City Lord’s Mansion. He took out Chen Shaobai’s yaksha umbrella and opened it, then stood aigh place and watched. The City Lord’s Mansion was now a wasteland. Even the lights had been extinguished. The most surprising thing was that although the weather was very volatile, the City Lord’s Mansion was so quiet that not a single sound could be heard. It was precisely because of this that An Zheng did not dare to rashly approach.
Just as An Zheng was feeling astonished, a fire dragon suddenly lit up in the City Lord’s Mansion. Six hundred of Da Xi’s most elite armored cavalry rode sturdy demon beasts as they opened uath. Like an unsheathed sword, the six hundred cavalrymen charged towards the city gate. And at this moment, there were actually so many soldiers lying in ambush all around. It was unknown how so many troops had appeared in the City Lord’s Mansion in just a few short hours.
The team that was like a sea of people wearing the attire of ordinary people were holding a variety of weapons in their hands, rushing towards the City Lord’s Mansion like a surging wave. As for the six hundred Steel Cavalry, they sliced a straight cut through the waves like arrows leaving the bowstring.
An Zheng stood there and saw Chen Zhongqi riding on a snow-white warhorse in the middle of the troop. At the front of the troop was an armored general with a long lance leading the way as blood flowed likiver in the direction that the long lance was pointing at. Su Mengmu who was holding onto her blade had disappeared without a trace, and no one knew where she had gone to.
The troop rushed along the main street and slaughtered their way to the city gate. The surrounding waves, no matter how fierce or cruel, were still unable to shatter the formation of the six hundred cavalry soldiers. The six hundred people used their arrows to attack the front, and the long lance General at the front was unstoppable. The army surrounding them from inside the city looked like there were no less than ten thousand men, but these six hundred riders were surrounded, and they actually managed to force their way through.
Boom!
The city gate was closed. Hundreds of tons of gate sealing stones were put down. The armored general with the long lance suddenly accelerated, and the demonic beast sitting on the ground wailed. A ball of fire suddenly emerged from its body. Holding onto the long lance with both hands, the general charged towards the gate’s stone: “Kill!”
Following that explosive shout, the long lance turned into a fire dragon. With a boom, it actually directly shattered the heavy gate sealing rock. This gate sealing rock was no ordinary stone; there were even symbols supporting it. If an ordinary cultivator were not to destroy it, they would be able to pierce it with their sword and be injured by the backlash from the gate sealing rock. However, the armored general broke open the city gate with a single move, pointing forward with his finger. Six hundred men were riding on the waves, and the corpses of their enemies were lying on the ground beneath their mounts.
This was the most elite cavalry of the Da Xi Empire. Even though they were in danger and surrounded, they still kept advancing forward.
As the group rushed out of the city gate, the fire dragon gradually moved further away.
An Zheng frowned slightly. He suddenly understood that no one could make such arrangements without the City Lord’s knowledge. Unless this was an ambush by the City Lord himself. They welcomed Chen Zhongqi into the City Lord’s Mansion, and while he was not prepared, they suddenly launched an attack.
But no one could have thought that Chen Zhongqi would be so valiant with only six hundred cavalrymen by his side. Under the siege of ten thousand troops, Chen Zhongqi was actually slaughtered and pierced through, dripping blood all the way. An Zheng guessed that Su Mengmu sensed something from that blade, and used that blade to kill the City Lord, it was considered a reminder for Chen Zhongqi.
He took advantage of the chaos to leave the large city, and chased after Chen Zhongqi. After exiting the city, An Zheng realized that this matter was not as simple as he thought. Not just in the city, but outside the city as well. The rumbling sounds came from all directions. It was the sound of countless cavalrymen chasing after them.
An Zheng’s body flashed, dodging the attack of the large group of people.
In the distance, Chen Zhongqi turned around to take a look, his brows knitted tightly.
The armored general who was holding onto the long lance slowed down his pace and waited for Chen Zhongqi to come up to him saying, “Royal Highness, there are ambushed soldiers everywhere. Outside of the city, there are probably no less than tens of thousands of people. The experts among them were most likely still waiting and watching. Su Mengmu did not reveal herself because she was afraid of these people. Whoever left would die. With Su Mengmu here, we only need to face these armies. ”
Chen Zhongqi said: “But you only have six hundred people.”
The armored general laughed, “Xia Houdan only knows two things. First, to lead. Second, lead the way. ”
He pointed at the long lance, “Prince, you just need to follow along. So what if there are tens of thousands of enemies around? Xia Houdan’s six hundred Steel Cavalry is enough to escort your Highness all the way to the west, all the way to the Phoenix Stage. ”
Chen Zhongqi cupped his fists: “It’s been hard on you.”
Xia Houdan galloped forward, “Your Highness, what are you saying? The name Xia Houdan is given by Your Highness, so this name should be used to protect Your Highness. Once the prince reached the northwest, who would dare to give up? “Today, these people will come out one by one. When the time comes, we can just kill them one by one and return.”
He led the way in front while the six hundred Steel Cavalry protected Chen Zhongqi’s path to the west. Ambushing soldiers could be seen everywhere. A squad appeared out of nowhere and either charged at them likeavy hammer, or stabbed them like a long sword, or chopped at them from the waist like sabers. The number of riders protecting Chen Zhongqi was also decreasing. After all, they were only six hundred. When the sky started to brighten, the team had already rushed out for at least six hundred miles. The speed at which they were sitting on the demonic beasts was naturally incomparable to that of ordinary war horses.
But the battle continued for six hundred kilometers.
“These people are crazy!”
Xia Houdan who was covered in blood came back, and looked at Chen Zhongqi who looked a little tired: “My prince, these people are all f * cking crazy. The one who has come is not one of our Da Xi people, bulainsman. Someone opened the gates of the kingdom and let the pawns in. ”
Chen Zhongqi said: “The State of Yan to the north, the mountains and rivers are still here, there are no troops there. “Those people are too despicable. They actually thought of such a degrading way.”
“Keep walking, even if you stop for a bit, you will be caught by the enemy.” From here to the northern border, the road is 16,000 miles long. The riders of the grasslands can go south without anyone stopping them. Just how many people will die in this 16,000 mile journey? ”
How many people Chen Zhongqi said should die? Naturally, it was not because the people of the grassland killed so many people, but it was because of how many people had opened uath for the Grassland Cavalry.
“Do they think they can hide it? Once the Sacred Emperor is aware of it, he’ll probably die every step of the way from here to the Northern Frontier at a distance of 16,000 kilometers! ”
After hearing Xia Houdan finish speaking, Chen Zhongqi suddenly realized something, “Not good … Someone is conspiring against us! ”
Xia Houdan was shocked, “His Majesty is the emperor of all time, he is invincible in this world, who would dare to directly attack His Majesty? Have those people gone mad? ”
Chen Zhongqi pointed around: “Don’t tell me they aren’t crazy?”
Xia Houdan asked: “My prince, what should we do?”
“Go to the northwest first. Ask the Yuwen Clan’s old man to make a move.”
Just as Chen Zhongqi finished speaking, he suddenly saw a gigantic fiery red meteor in the sky, heading towards the southeast at an unimaginable speed. The meteor was huge, dragging a long trail of flames behind it as it flew. It seemed as if it would tear the sky asunder.
“Sky Wolf from the northwest?”
Chen Zhongqi’s expression changed: “Yuwen Clan’s old man has made his move.”
