Chapter 636: The Battlefield

"I repeat, how much will it cost to ask you all to leave the inn?"

The nameless swordsman who came from nowhere was negotiating in an almost provocative tone, as if he wanted to deliberately anger the guests in the inn.

The rough-looking bearded man replied, "Who cares about your dirty money! Do you believe that I will let you come in vertically and leave horizontally?"

"We've only just moved in not long ago, and you're kicking us out all of a sudden? That doesn't make sense!" The woman with a nondescript appearance echoed in a dignified voice.

"Hey, hey, hey, where did this stray dog ​​come from? Boss, come out and chase it away!" The "one-eyed man" wearing a gray eye patch simply pushed the conflict and atmosphere to a climax and didn't want to waste any more time talking to the newcomer.

The Muxing Inn was built right next to the Jinyang city gate. Due to its low price, it naturally became the first choice for many wanderers to settle in Jinyang.

"You have come all the way to Jinyang, isn't it just for a chance to make a fortune and become famous? Now, as long as you leave this place, I will give you any amount of money." The swordsman was still mocking the other party with a smile.

Led by the three gangsters who had just spoken, all the guests stood up and slammed the table. The shopkeeper had to come out in person to mediate the conflict.

"My dear hero, you are alone, why do you need to book the whole inn? If you deliberately cause trouble like this and disturb the government, everyone will suffer." The shopkeeper nodded and suggested the new swordsman to put away his unreasonable demands while comforting the other old customers.

The swordsman said, "I am only reminding you kindly. If you really don't want to do it, you will have to bear the consequences of what happens next. Goodbye."

The swordsman put his hat back on his head, found a corner and sat quietly, sipping his tea. His presence was soon drowned out by the heated discussions around him.

"Have you heard? There is a Yuwen Xuan in Beizhen, who is said to be a prince of Zhou State, but he wants to invade Qi State under the banner of the current crown prince Gao Yang? It's a joke! As expected, the King of Zhou immediately sent troops to reinforce. It is obvious that he wants to use the power of Beizhen to complete the unification of the Yuwen family."

"Now they can't even enter the gate of Da Qi, so what's the point of talking about clearing the court? It's neither legitimate nor justifiable. In my opinion, they are just using this excuse to alienate the relationship between the Crown Prince and the Emperor so that the Zhou army can advance unimpeded! These people have ulterior motives. They are willing to stir up chaos in the world and play with people's hearts for the sake of victory or defeat in the war. It's really hateful!"

"Look at what you said. If the world is not in chaos, how can we live?"

The swordsman who had been sitting in the corner for a long time suddenly spoke up and said, "That's wrong. Even people like you can think of something, but do you think these dragons among men who command millions of people can't think of it?"

"You have no right to speak!" The one-eyed brute stood up, walked slowly to the swordsman, and asked gloomily, "You bastard, can't you learn to shut up? If you say one more word, I'll cut off your tongue."

The swordsman said confidently, "It is true that Yuwen Xuan wanted to purge the emperor's entourage. It is true that Zhou sent troops to reinforce us. It is also true that the Daqi Pass refused to allow Yuwen Xuan's troops to enter. The facts are so simple. Your speculations are just the aftermath of many events, not the main content."

"How can you be sure?" asked the one-eyed man.

The swordsman said, "If the current situation is completely within their expectations, do you believe it?"

"Who the hell are you?" Although the other party's words did not contain any personal bias, the one-eyed man still overturned the swordsman's dining table to the ground in anger.

The swordsman crossed his arms over his chest and replied as if it had nothing to do with him: "Perhaps you will know soon."

After just a few words, the angry old customer seemed to have changed his identity. Now he looked more like someone who had just arrived in Jinyang, while the mysterious swordsman in front of him obviously knew more. The sharp-eyed shopkeeper noticed this and walked to the side of the one-eyed dragon to persuade him to leave, and then served the swordsman new refreshments for free.

After a while of silence, the evening star began to appear. Just above the Evening Star Inn, an eye-catching star hung high near the terminator, flickering in and out of view.

"Master Tianshu of the Taiping Dao once said that in the whole of Jinyang, only the small shop can see the clearest evening star, so he personally named the small shop 'Evening Star'." The shopkeeper walked up to the swordsman and muttered to himself, seeming to want to show off that he, too, had an extraordinary origin.

The swordsman said disdainfully, "Are you from the Taiping Dao? Tianshuzi."

Soon, two women holding weapons walked into the inn, followed by a third woman escorted by them. She was clearly in shackles and was a prisoner, but she had a pretty face and a calm demeanor, and did not look like a criminal at all.

The woman holding the machete had beautiful golden hair, with a pair of braids neatly placed in front of her shoulders. She spoke Chinese with an accent and asked, "Where is the shopkeeper?"

The other woman holding the sword didn't say anything and went straight into the store to look for it.

The inn was quite lively at that time, with everyone setting up makeshift gambling dens to have fun, so no one should be able to hear their voices.

However, the swordsman who had been waiting for a long time took the initiative to greet the three women, saying, "Yan'er, Miss Heba, A Ke, you are all here."

"Brother Feng" The woman in shackles walked to the gambling dens. No one thought she was a wanted criminal from somewhere. She only said, "Everyone, please throw away the medicine you got from the Taiping Dao. It is a highly poisonous substance that will only make people sink, not become immortal. Then, leave Jinyang and never come back."

After hearing this, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at the "criminal" in confusion.

"Who are you? Are you in the same group as that man during the day?" The one-eyed man came out and asked on behalf of everyone else: "If I don't hand it over, what can you do to me?"

The swordsman came between them and said, "I will kill you."

"you dare!?"

Before he finished his words, a sharp white light flashed and pierced through the man's throat.

"My name is Bai Feng. I have already given everyone a warning. Anyone who doesn't want to leave now will end up like him."

One of the servants who was hanging out with the One-Eyed Dragon was furious and wanted to conspire with his accomplices to attack Bai Feng from behind, but Bai Feng saw through their plan at a glance: first find them from the crowd, then drag them out one by one, knock them to the ground, and finally throw them in front of their boss's corpse.

"Quick, go and sue the authorities!"

"We have all committed murders, so isn't this just turning ourselves in?"

"It's better to surrender yourself than to stay here!?"

Bai Feng's movements were unpredictable. Anyone he saw trying to resist would be found out and crippled. With such a terrifying enemy standing before them, these old veterans didn't even think about uniting and just ran away.
