Chapter 6 Killing the Traitor
Outside Yongcheng.

Ye Jiuxing stopped moving forward. If he went any further, he would be within the archers' shooting range.

He raised his head, looked at Si Yong standing on the tower, and laughed loudly, "Si Yong, I haven't seen you for a long time. Don't you recognize me?"

Si Yong’s body trembled, it was really him.

His lips trembled, he took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and said in a deep voice: "My Lord, you betrayed His Majesty, plotted a rebellion, and were chased out of the Imperial City. How dare you come to Yongcheng?"

Lord Hou!

Ye Jiuxing!
After these words were spoken, the faces of many Yongcheng defenders changed slightly.

Strictly speaking, these people are all Ye Jiuxing's troops.

"I've got an imperial decree for you!"

Ye Jiuxing took out the imperial edict, held it high, and said with a smile: "Do you want to know the content? Zhao Wan'er thinks highly of you and appointed you as the commander. This is the benefit of betraying me!"

Wow!
Everyone was excited.

Si Yong's face became extremely gloomy.

traitor!

After this battle, no matter who wins or loses.

He will not be able to get rid of the stigma of a traitor and will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

"Nonsense!"

Si Yong would not sit still and wait for death. He suddenly drew out the sword from his waist and shouted sternly: "Soldiers, don't be fooled by Ye Jiuxing's words! His Majesty has issued an order that Ye Jiuxing has rebelled secretly. The evidence is conclusive and his entire clan has been executed."

His voice was loud and resounding over Yongcheng, but no one responded.

Ye Jiuxing rebelled?

For ordinary people and grassroots soldiers, they could not hate Ye Jiuxing even if he rebelled.

Because Ye Jiuxing implemented reforms, suppressed the powerful, and made the people rich and the country strong, he allowed many ordinary people who could not afford to eat to live a happy life.

They were grateful to Ye Jiuxing from the bottom of their hearts.

even.

Many people felt deep down that perhaps if Ye Jiuxing became emperor, their lives would be better.

"Send the order, kill!"

Si Yong knew Ye Jiuxing's influence, so he stopped boosting morale and winning the hearts of the people, and instead used benefits to lure them. He ordered in a cold voice: "Whoever kills Ye Jiuxing will be rewarded with 10,000 gold coins and promoted three levels!"

After saying this, he led 10,000 of his own troops out of the city to fight.

kill!

Ye Jiuxing must be killed.

As for defending the city, there is no need.

He just sensed that there were several Purple Mansion and Kaiqiao realm warriors beside Ye Jiuxing, who could easily rush up the city wall, or smash the city gate with one sword.

In addition, Ye Jiuxing only had a thousand people around him, while he commanded tens of thousands of troops. Even if he used human wave tactics, he could still kill Ye Jiuxing.

"dong dong dong"

The sound of war drums pierces the clouds and splits the rocks, making people's hearts surge.

Si Yong tightly gripped the sword, feeling somewhat nervous but more murderous. With cold eyes, he rushed forward.

Behind him, ten thousand soldiers followed closely.

They were all Si Yong's direct descendants, loyal and reliable. Even though they were afraid of Ye Jiuxing's reputation, they still launched the charge.

"kill!"

Ye Jiuxing ordered in a cold voice.

"Great Qin warriors, charge!"

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Bai Qi's eyes, and he drew his sword. He turned into a bloody afterimage and disappeared out of thin air.

On the opposite side, Si Yong was circulating spiritual energy frantically. He was a warrior at the eighth level of the Kaiqiao realm, and with the support of the military formation, he could burst out the combat power of the Guiyi realm. His speed was extremely fast, and it was difficult to track his whereabouts.

Suddenly, he felt a chill all over his body, his hair stood on end, and he felt creepy.

Behind him, a ray of blood-red light emerged, so faint that it was difficult to detect. Even if it was discovered, it would be unconsciously ignored.

Bai Qi's figure then emerged, emitting unparalleled blood-red light all over his body.

A sword fell.

It was light and without any strength.

It was as if he was an apprentice who had just started learning kendo, but such an ordinary sword strike accurately pierced Si Yong's body.

boom!
Blood splattered.

Si Yong's body froze, and he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart. He looked down and saw the tip of the sword that had pierced his body, and blood was dripping from it. A feeling of powerlessness came over him!
Life is slipping away quickly!
Si Yong turned his head with great difficulty, looked at Bai Qi, and asked tremblingly: "Who are you?"

Who is this person?

What a terrifying strength!

He hadn't noticed anything just now and was killed by Bai Qi's sword.

Bai Qi remained silent.

Si Yong showed bitterness on his face. He was also stupid. When he was about to die, he still asked such meaningless questions. The person who attacked him must be Ye Jiuxing's subordinate.

He just found it a little unbelievable that Ye Jiuxing actually had a trump card.

Seeking the title of Marquis!

As expected, he is called Marquis Mou!
The secret was hidden so deeply that the Empress probably didn't expect that Ye Jiuxing had a backup plan, right?

At this time.

There was the sound of footsteps.

Ye Jiuxing walked up to Si Yong, murderous intent revealed. He put his right hand on the sword, pulled it out suddenly, and slashed towards Si Yong's neck.

The sword flashed.

Then a head flew out and rolled to the ground.

All this was accomplished almost in the blink of an eye. After Si Yong died, his direct troops had not yet rushed forward. They all stood where they were, shivering all over.

"wind!"

"Gale!"

The Qin warriors were not idle. After rushing into the battlefield, they would not be disturbed by external factors. As long as the order to retreat was not given, they would continue to fight.

charge!

Its momentum is like a tiger descending from the mountain.

Its power is like a hidden dragon ascending to the sky.

Bang bang bang.
At the moment of contact, hundreds of Yongcheng defenders were killed, blood mist rose, broken limbs and arms flew everywhere, dyeing the surrounding void red, it was extremely bloody.

The flash of swords and the shadow of sabers are invincible!
The Qin warriors were like a peerless divine weapon, directly cutting off the defenders of Yongcheng.

death!

It enveloped all the defenders of Yongcheng.

Many people reacted, their faces turned pale, and they said in a trembling voice: "I surrender"

Before he finished speaking, Bai Qi's cold voice resounded through the heavens and earth, "No one who participated in the battle will be spared!"

kill!

Kill all the combatants!

"Kill, kill, kill!"

The Qin warriors roared and launched an even more frantic killing. After several rounds of charges, they all turned into bloody bodies, emitting cold murderous aura that froze their bones.

Perhaps because they had killed too many people, the evil energy above their heads rolled and turned them into a white tiger, dominating the war and reaping lives.

The entire battlefield was one-sided.

Less than half an hour.

All the ten thousand direct descendants that Si Yong had carefully cultivated became victims of the Qin warriors.

Forge soldiers with blood!

Stepping on the corpses of countless enemies, he declared to the world the power of the Qin warriors.

Ye Jiuxing stood at the sidelines, watching the killing coldly without stopping it. Even though he knew that these people were just following orders, some things, once done, could not be undone.

In war, there are no innocents!
"Open the city gate!"

The war is over.

Ye Jiuxing stepped over the corpses and walked towards Yongcheng.

On both sides, many people gathered, with fear and some excitement on their faces.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have completed the side quest and gained ten years of cultivation. Do you want to use it?

You have been given a chance to summon a top Chinese hero. Do you want to use it? 】

After entering the city, a system prompt sounded in Ye Jiuxing's mind.

mission completed!
