You get Lu Bu as your starting character.

Chapter 134 Do you think your Fuyun Manor is worthy of my Eastern Depot's explanation?
Divine Fist School.

After Lu Bu used his halberd to cut the leader of the Divine Fist Sect in half at the waist, he then swept it directly towards several elders of the Divine Fist Sect.

Upon seeing this, the elders of the Divine Fist Sect changed their expressions and, without thinking, simultaneously attacked Lu Bu.

The elders of the Divine Fist Sect knew that even their Grandmaster-level leader had been killed in a single exchange. If they didn't join forces, they wouldn't have been able to withstand Lu Bu's halberd strike.

Unfortunately, even with the elders joining forces, they were powerless against such overwhelming strength.

"puff…."

With a single halberd strike.

Several elders of the Divine Fist Sect were swept away and crashed to the ground, cracking the earth.

The elders of the Divine Fist Sect struggled for a few moments and then fell silent.

When the disciples of the Divine Fist Sect saw their sect leader and several elders die one after another at the hands of Lü Bu, they immediately panicked.

Without the sect leader and several elders, these disciples were no match for the officials from the imperial court.

Before the disciples of the Divine Fist Sect could recover from their panic, Lu Bu, having killed the sect leader and several elders, was already charging towards them again with his halberd.

In the blink of an eye, bloodshed ensued.

In just a few minutes, more than half of the thousands of disciples of the Divine Fist Sect fell down.

Three thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry followed closely behind Lü Bu, raising their butcher knives and pulling the triggers on their crossbows, charging and killing the disciples of the Divine Fist Sect.

……

Half an hour later, the sounds of fighting from the Divine Fist Sect subsided.

The entire Shenquan Sect was littered with corpses and covered in blood.

The corpses of Divine Fist Sect disciples were everywhere.

From disciples to elders to the sect leader, no one in the Divine Fist Sect survived; they all died at the hands of Lü Bu and his three thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry.

"Walk."

"Next goal."

After wiping out the Divine Fist Sect, Lü Bu cracked his whip and led three thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry down the mountain, disappearing at the end of the mountain road.

The Divine Fist Sect, a renowned martial arts sect in the Jianghu, was thus wiped out by Lü Bu and his three thousand Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry.

If this news gets out, it will definitely cause quite a stir in the martial arts world.

Because the Divine Fist Sect is not a small sect in the martial arts world, but a powerful force with considerable influence.

Although he may not be considered a leading figure in the martial arts world, he is still quite renowned.

Now that the Divine Fist Sect has been wiped out by the imperial court, it's hard for the martial arts world not to be shocked when this news gets out.

After all, the imperial court never cared about the martial arts world.

This is the first time in history that the imperial court has ever eradicated the Divine Fist Sect.

……

When Lü Bu wiped out the Divine Fist Sect, Cao Shaoqin led several hundred imperial guards to a mountain villa.

"Stop anyone who comes."

"This is Fuyun Manor."

"Who are you?"

"What brings you to my Fuyun Manor?"

Upon seeing Cao Shaoqin arrive at the manor with hundreds of imperial guards, the guards at the manor gate immediately went on high alert.

One of them stepped forward and loudly questioned Cao Shaoqin.

There were simply too many of Cao Shaoqin's men, and they were all fully armed and carrying weapons, exuding a murderous aura.

This made the guards at the entrance of the manor more vigilant.

If it were an ordinary person visiting a manor, they wouldn't bring so many people and look so menacing.

Cao Shaoqin ignored the guards' questions at the entrance of the villa.

Cao Shaoqin looked up at the four golden characters "Fuyun Manor" on the gate plaque and a cold smile appeared on his face.

"Fuyun Manor?"

"hehe."

"From now on, the name Fuyun Manor will no longer exist in the martial arts world."

As soon as he finished speaking, Cao Shaoqin drew his soft sword from his waist.

"Click."

The plaque with the four golden characters "Fuyun Villa" hanging on the door frame immediately broke in two and fell down.

The guards at the entrance of Fuyun Manor were visibly shocked when they saw Cao Shaoqin cut down the manor's signboard without saying a word.

No one has ever dared to act so presumptuously at his Fuyun Manor.

The guards at the entrance of Fuyun Manor were furious.

"Asshole."

"You're all asking for it."

"How dare you destroy the plaque of my Fuyun Manor! My Fuyun Manor..."

Before the guard at the entrance of Fuyun Manor could finish speaking, a flash of cold light appeared.

"Puch."

Gushes of blood spurted out.

The guards at the entrance of Fuyun Manor, their eyes wide with disbelief, collapsed to the ground.

Blood was gushing from their necks.

They never imagined that these people would not only dare to destroy the plaque of their Fuyun Manor, but also dare to kill them.

"Serve it to the general."

After killing the guards at the entrance of Fuyun Manor with a single sword strike, Cao Shaoqin led hundreds of imperial guards into the manor.

The sounds of fighting suddenly arose.

The news spread throughout the entire Fuyun Manor in no time.

"presumptuous."

"Who dares to cause trouble at my Fuyun Manor?"

Just as Cao Shaoqin and his imperial guards arrived at the square in front of the gate.

Sudden.

An angry shout rang out.

Then, more than a dozen figures rushed out from the depths of the manor.

The visitors were the owner of Fuyun Manor and some of the manor's experts.

When the master of Fuyun Manor rushed over, he frowned upon seeing the eagle-patterned uniforms worn by Cao Shaoqin and his companions.

"People from the Eastern Depot?"

The reputation of the Eastern Depot had already spread, coupled with its distinctive flying eagle uniform.

Therefore, the owner of Fuyun Manor recognized Cao Shaoqin and his group at a glance.

The master of Fuyun Manor frowned as he glanced at the corpses of his own disciples on the ground around him, then looked at Cao Shaoqin with a grim expression.

"I, Fuyun Manor, have never had any dealings with your Eastern Depot, nor have we had any grudges against you."

"Why did your Eastern Depot men storm into my Fuyun Manor and kill so many people from my Fuyun Manor?"

"If your Eastern Depot doesn't give my Fuyun Manor an explanation today, even if you are from the Eastern Depot, my Fuyun Manor will make sure you don't leave alive."

The owner of Fuyun Manor looked coldly at Cao Shaoqin and said.

The owner of Fuyun Manor did not know why the people from the Eastern Depot had stormed into his Fuyun Manor.

But that doesn't matter anymore.

The important thing is that the people from the Eastern Depot have already killed many of his disciples from Fuyun Manor. If the Eastern Depot cannot give Fuyun Manor a satisfactory explanation today, then these people from the Eastern Depot will not be able to leave.

Although Fuyun Manor is not a major force in the martial arts world, it is not a place where just anyone can run wild and act recklessly.

Explanation?

"hehe."

"Why should the Eastern Depot need to explain its actions to anyone? Does your Fuyun Manor even deserve an explanation from the Eastern Depot?"

Cao Shaoqin sneered disdainfully. "Since you know about the Eastern Depot, you should understand what we do."

“You, Fuyun Manor, should know in your hearts what you have done.”

“You mere江湖人士 (jianghu people) dare to oppose my imperial court, and even join forces with the Yellow Heaven Sect traitors to kill my Great Zhou's Grand Tutor Wen Zhong. You are simply audacious.”

"I am acting on the Emperor's orders to annihilate the rebels at your Fuyun Manor."

Cao Shaoqin looked at the owner of Fuyun Manor and said sternly.

That's right.

One of the grandmasters who previously joined the Yellow Heaven Sect traitors in besieging and killing Grand Tutor Wen Zhong was from this Fuyun Manor.

Upon hearing Cao Shaoqin's words, the owner of Fuyun Manor's expression changed, and his heart sank to the bottom.

As expected, what you fear most is what will happen.

Previously, the master of Fuyun Manor was somewhat worried because Huangtian Sect had asked his Fuyun Manor's Grandmaster to deal with the Imperial Court's Grand Tutor Wen Zhong, which would implicate his Fuyun Manor.

Who would have thought that this fear would actually come true?

The owner of Fuyun Manor looked at Cao Shaoqin with a solemn expression and said, "You Eastern Depot shouldn't make baseless accusations. My Fuyun Manor has never been an enemy of the imperial court, nor has it had any connection with the Yellow Heaven Sect."

"That grandmaster from my Fuyun Manor had already left my Fuyun Manor when he was invited by the Huangtian Sect."

"Grand Tutor Wen's death has nothing to do with my Fuyun Manor."

The owner of Fuyun Manor looked at Cao Shaoqin and explained.

As a martial arts force, Fuyun Manor doesn't really respect the imperial court, but it also doesn't want to openly oppose it.

After all, this world belongs to the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the imperial court is the most powerful.

The owner of Fuyun Manor knew that it would be very troublesome if the imperial court took notice.

Therefore, the owner of Fuyun Manor had to offer an explanation.

Unfortunately, the explanation given by the owner of Fuyun Manor was completely irrelevant to Cao Shaoqin.

What Cao Shaoqin wanted wasn't an explanation, but the extermination of his entire family.

Upon hearing the explanation from the owner of Fuyun Manor, Cao Shaoqin sneered, "Your Fuyun Manor is trying to distance itself completely."

"But my Eastern Depot doesn't need that kind of explanation."

"You should go down to Grand Tutor Wen yourself and explain this to him, Fuyun Manor!"

At this point, Cao Shaoqin's face turned cold, and he flicked his fingers with his orchid-like fingers.

"Kill him, you rascal."

"Everyone from Fuyun Manor will be killed."

At a command, hundreds of imperial guards raised their crescent blades and charged towards the people of Fuyun Manor.

At the same time, Cao Shaoqin leaped into the air, his soft sword shooting out.

"court death."

"Does your Eastern Depot really think that my Fuyun Manor is afraid of you court lackeys?"

"Since your Eastern Depot doesn't know what's good for you and wants to destroy my Fuyun Manor, then don't blame me for being impolite."

When the master of Fuyun Manor saw that Cao Shaoqin had directly ordered the destruction of his Fuyun Manor, he knew that things could not end well today.

No matter how much he explains, it's no use.

Therefore, the master of Fuyun Manor's face darkened, and he said in a cold voice.

"Give me your full strength and kill these henchmen of the imperial court."

"We can't let a single one of them escape."

As soon as he finished speaking, the master of Fuyun Manor took the initiative to attack Cao Shaoqin.

Since the people from the Eastern Depot wouldn't listen to explanations, then we'd have to settle things with our fists.

If the imperial army were to come and destroy Fuyun Manor, that would be something.

To think that a mere few hundred guards could destroy Fuyun Manor is utterly audacious.

The master of Fuyun Manor wanted to see just how capable the Eastern Depot was, daring to so brazenly claim that it could destroy his Fuyun Manor.

As soon as the owner of Fuyun Manor greeted Cao Shaoqin, he felt a chilling aura sweep across his neck.

"not good."

The master of Fuyun Manor's expression changed, and he quickly dodged to the side. He saw a soft sword pierce past him, only a hair's breadth away from his neck.

If he hadn't dodged quickly, that sword would probably have slit his throat.

Just as the owner of Fuyun Manor was congratulating himself on dodging in time, the soft sword unexpectedly turned to the side and stabbed at him again.

"Puch."

The sword tip pierced through the chest of the master of Fuyun Manor.

Streams of blood gushed out.

Before the owner of Fuyun Manor could react, a sharp, cold snort rang in his ears: "Hmph, daring to underestimate our Eastern Depot, you're courting death."

"brush…."

The soft sword burst forth from his body, and Cao Shaoqin struck the crown of the head of the Fuyun Manor with another palm strike.

"puff."

The master of Fuyun Manor coughed up a mouthful of blood, knelt on the ground, and smashed a hole in the ground.

"you……"

The master of Fuyun Manor had barely uttered a single word when his head lolled to the side, and he collapsed to the ground with a look of utter resentment on his face.

The master of Fuyun Manor never imagined that he, the dignified master of Fuyun Manor, with the strength of a Grandmaster at the peak and a well-known expert in the martial arts world, would die at the hands of Cao Shaoqin in just three moves.

At this moment, the master of Fuyun Manor finally understood why the Eastern Depot, with only a few hundred men, dared to storm into his Fuyun Manor and brazenly declare that they would destroy it.

It turns out that the leader, Cao Shaoqin, was at the same peak Grandmaster level as him, but his combat power was more than ten times stronger.

"The owner of the village."

Upon seeing their master die at Cao Shaoqin's hands, the experts of Fuyun Manor changed their expressions and charged towards Cao Shaoqin in unison.

"Ha, mere ants."

Seeing the experts from Fuyun Manor charging towards him, Cao Shaoqin drew his soft sword and vanished from his spot.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared beside the experts of Fuyun Manor.

A cold light flashed.

Drops of blood floated up.

One by one, the masters of Foyun Manor fell to the ground.

Compared to Lü Bu's domineering and tyrannical style, Cao Shaoqin's attacks were unpredictable and nimble, making them difficult to defend against.

In an instant, all of the dozen or so experts from Fuyun Manor fell to the ground.

Without pausing, Cao Shaoqin continued running deeper into Fuyun Manor, carrying his soft sword.

Meanwhile, the hundreds of guards surrounding them, some of whom had killed some of their opponents, followed closely behind Cao Shaoqin and charged into the depths of Fuyun Manor.

……

Half an hour later, the entire Fuyun Manor was turned into a dead land.

Inside the manor, men, women, and children all died under the crescent blades of the Eastern Depot's guards.

Fuyun Manor is considered a major force in the martial arts world. Although it cannot compare to the Divine Fist Sect, it still enjoys a great reputation.

But even such a powerful force in the martial arts world was wiped out by the imperial court along with the Divine Fist.

This is the consequence of daring to oppose the imperial court.

Perhaps neither the Divine Fist Sect nor the Fuyun Manor could have imagined that the imperial court would take action to eradicate their martial arts forces when they were wiped out.

"Walk."

"The next one."

After wiping out Fuyun Manor, Cao Shaoqin left directly with the Imperial Guards.

They then set off for the next goal.

There were a total of six martial arts grandmasters who cooperated with the Yellow Heaven Sect to besiege and kill Grand Tutor Wen Zhong.

None of the relatives and sects of these six individuals can escape.
