Chapter 26: Cihang Sword Sect takes action and kills to Yuanchu City (Please read later)
"What a bastard who killed his brother and father. How arrogant!" A sneer appeared on Zhuang Lian's face.
"How dare you set your sights on the Primordial City?"
"Haha, City Lord, if that bastard comes here, he will be courting death!"
A half-saint under Zhuang Lian's command sneered and spoke.
"That's right. Su Jiutian thinks that he can ignore Yuanchu City just because he has occupied Tianlang Pass and killed Chu Tian. He is simply courting death!" Another semi-saint also spoke with disdain.
These two people, one is named Zhao Niu and the other is named Zhao Ma.
The two are brothers, both of them are strong in body but simple in mind.
Another semi-saint named Ma Rui listened to what the two said, secretly called them two idiots, and then clasped his fists and said, "City Lord, Su Jiutian was able to occupy Tianlang Pass and kill Chu Tian. His strength should not be underestimated. We must not be careless to avoid a setback."
Only millions of descendants can be overturned in the gutter, but not the boat... Zhuang Lian muttered in his heart, and said seriously: "You are right, Su Jiutian was able to occupy Tianlang Pass and annihilate the imperial division. He is indeed quite capable. We must not be careless."
"Well, pass the order down, reinforce the city walls, prepare gold juice, rolling logs, rolling stones and other supplies for defending the city, and wait for the rebels to arrive."
"Yes!"
The three semi-saints saluted at the same time.
……
Xiliang.
Inside the Zhenxi Palace.
After three months of seclusion, Zhao Tianba, the King of Zhenxi, who was striving to reach the semi-emperor realm, finally came out on this day.
Zhao Tianba was a burly man with a slight beard and looked extremely fierce.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Congratulations on entering the Semi-Emperor Realm!"
All the people under the command of the King of Zhenxi, including the Crown Prince, knelt on the ground and saluted, with excitement on their faces.
Since then, the Zhenxi Palace also had a Half-Emperor Realm expert.
"No need to be so polite, everyone, get up." Zhao Tianba said with a big laugh.
Then, he looked at the Crown Prince Zhao Liuzhen and asked, "My son, has anything important happened during the time your father has been in seclusion?"
Ah this!
Zhao Liuzhen was stunned, because the joy of his father's entry into the semi-emperor realm disappeared, and he said in a deep voice: "Father, there is indeed a big event that concerns Beiliang."
"Oh?"
"Humph, but Su Xiao, that brat, is so ignorant that he started a rebellion?"
Zhao Tianba sneered, "What a self-righteous thing! The imperial court was able to suppress the Nine Provinces for three thousand years, how could the mere Northern Liang be able to compare to it?"
"Let him rebel. As long as your father is here, Your Majesty will not make things difficult for your two cousins and aunt."
Zhao Tianba talked a lot to himself.
From these words, it can be seen that he knew that Su Xiao was secretly recruiting soldiers and preparing to rebel.
"Father, it was not my uncle who started the rebellion." Zhao Liuzhen spoke again, "It was my uncle, aunt and two cousins who were killed by Su Jiutian."
"Ok?"
"What the hell?"
Zhao Tianba was stunned and almost thought he had heard it wrong.
The brother-in-law of a semi-saint, the nephew of a semi-saint, were killed by Su Jiutian, the illegitimate son?
What a joke.
Zhao Tianba had seen Su Jiutian before. He had no talent for cultivation and was timid and cowardly to the extreme.
"Father, it is absolutely true." Zhao Liuzhen said, "Not only that, now, Su Jiutian has captured Tianlang Pass, killed Chu Tian, and annihilated 400,000 imperial guards."
This time, Zhao Tianba was completely stunned.
It took him a long while to react and he asked in a deep voice, "What's going on?"
Zhao Liuzhen hurriedly told his father everything he knew.
"Good good!"
"What a bastard who killed his brother and father. He deserves death, he deserves death!"
Zhao Tianba roared angrily, and the powerful pressure of a semi-emperor unconsciously spread out.
In an instant, everyone present was overwhelmed by this momentum and felt a deep fear.
Zhao Tianba also reacted quickly, restrained his momentum, and said in a deep voice: "Ask the court for permission. The Pingxi Palace will send a large army to help the court suppress the rebels."
"Father, the Duke of Chu has already led ten Half-Saints, twenty Five-Saints, many Martial Emperors and Kings, as well as a million imperial guards to fight against the rebels. Do we... still need to ask for permission?" Zhao Liuzhen reminded.
"In that case, let's wait and see." Zhao Tianba pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.
Then he asked, "Are there any movements in the Western Regions?"
"Replying to Father, there is no unusual movement."
Zhao Tianba nodded.
……
at the same time.
The Cihang Sword Sect has also learned that Master Fei'er was murdered.
However, the leader of Cihang Sword Sect has been in seclusion for half a year.
Helpless, he could only report the matter to the Grand Elder of Cihang Sword Sect.
"A mere bastard's son dares to kill a disciple of Cihang Sword Sect and is courting his own destruction." The Great Elder was extremely angry.
This has nothing to do with the fact that Shi Fei'er is the sect leader's direct disciple, or that Shi Fei'er is one of the next generation candidates to succeed the sect leader.
The reason why he was angry was that Su Jiutian, a bastard, dared to challenge the authority of Cihang Sword Sect.
"Li Jin, you go there in person and bring Su Jiutian's head." The Great Elder spoke again.
"Yes!"
Li Jin clasped his fists and accepted the order.
Soon, he left the Cihang Sword Sect, flying in the air, heading north.
A Martial Saint is enough to kill Su Jiutian.
The original city.
On the city wall, Zhuang Lian stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the north with a sharp gaze.
Behind him are three semi-saints, ten martial masters, and twenty martial emperors.
Everyone was eager to fight.
The same is true for an army of 300,000.
The rebels have come, and it will be a great achievement to wipe them out.
Even if Yuanchu City obeyed the imperial court's orders but not its announcements, the imperial court would still reward it with a large amount of gold and silver.
"Dad, my daughter is back."
At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared on the city wall, looked at Zhuang Lian's back, and shouted happily.
This woman is Zhuang Lian’s daughter, Zhuang Tong.
"Tong'er!"
Zhuang Lian was pleasantly surprised when he heard his daughter's voice.
"Miss!"
"Miss!"
On the city wall, everyone greeted each other with smiles on their faces.
"Tong'er, have you entered the semi-saint realm?"
At this time, Zhuang Lian was even more surprised to find that his daughter's realm had actually entered the semi-saint realm.
"Yes, Dad. I just entered the semi-saint realm a few days ago, and my master allowed me to go home to visit him." Zhuang Tong said with a smile on his face.
"Okay, okay, Tong'er is really gifted. I think it won't be long before she can surpass her father." Zhuang Lian was very happy.
The people on the city wall hurriedly spoke up, saying festive words such as congratulations.
"By the way, Dad, what are you doing here?" Zhuang Tong asked puzzledly.
"The traitor Su Jiutian is so ignorant that he actually led a large army to capture Yuanchu City. I am waiting for this illegitimate son to come and die voluntarily." Zhuang Lian said with a sneer.
"Su Jiutian?"
Zhuang Tong raised her eyebrows slightly and said, "Is it Su Jiutian who killed his brother, father, stepmother, and master's concubine?"
"Yes, it's him." Zhuang Lian said.
At this moment, a faint roar was heard from the north, followed by a cloud of flying dust. Soon, an elite army appeared in sight.
