Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 21
In the Wei Wei Department, the Zhong family's elite soldiers guarded this place firmly.Zhong Li stood in front of the Weiwei Office, staring at the direction of Xiyi Palace in the palace, with a look of panic and worry on his face.

Zhong Li was afraid of death, and his cultivation base was not high, so he didn't dare to face two eighth-level masters.But after all, Wei Wei had a duty, in order to avoid punishment in front of Wang Xiao, at this time, he was using his family-inherited mental method with full force, and focused on the situation in Xiyi Palace.

Suddenly, Zhong Li seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and his face became extremely panicked. He couldn't help but backed up a few steps, then staggered and fell to the ground.

All the soldiers around hurriedly stepped forward to help, and before they could ask, they saw a strange flush on Zhong Li's face, and then a mouthful of blood suddenly spewed out of his mouth, and his whole breath suddenly sank.

"Lord!"

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

A group of soldiers surrounded him, with panicked faces, asking questions in one go.

Zhong Li raised his hand tremblingly, staring in the direction of Xiyi Palace.

The soldiers followed Zhongli's line of sight, and couldn't help showing a look of shock.

In the direction of Xiyi Palace, a sword intent soared into the sky.

The sword intent was aroused, and a violent wind raged boundlessly. The originally clear night sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds.The sword energy is vertical and horizontal, pouring down, like pouring rain, pouring down like a pour.

This situation is like a catastrophe brewing by the power of heaven and earth, which is daunting.

Needless to say, Zhong Li's current appearance is due to his lack of deep internal strength and insufficient cultivation.Suddenly saw Xiao Cheng attack with all his strength, the sword energy of the six-veined sword was soaring to the sky, he couldn't bear it, and was backlashed by his family's martial arts.

Zhong Li struggled to get up, grabbed the cuffs of the soldiers around him, and said with a slightly ferocious expression:

"Quickly, send someone to check, have the people from the Grand Master's Mansion arrived?"

As soon as the words were finished, there were only a few neighs of war horses coming from outside, followed by hurried footsteps.

Mr. Tie's face was ashen, holding the iron fan firmly in his hand, he led several people dressed as warriors, and came in a hurry.
-
Outside Xiyi Palace, facing the rewinding crossbow arrows, the Forbidden Army faced the incomparably fierce and imposing Shaoshang sword energy in an instant, killing and wounding them instantly.

Having not fought for a long time, and a guard who came here after being drunk all day long, these forbidden troops are more well-equipped than those bandits and mobs in the mountains.

Faced with such a fierce and frightening sword energy, several generals of the forbidden army turned around and ran away in fright.As soon as the general ran away, the soldiers of the Forbidden Army naturally became even more flustered, and many people ran around like headless chickens.

All of a sudden, the already loose army formation suddenly became chaotic.

However, not all of the Forbidden Army were such trash.

Seeing that the army was disintegrated, someone stood up immediately, and his body suddenly moved together, facing the fierce sword aura that struck.

This person is holding a long sword, and his seventh-level cultivation is undoubtedly revealed.

Faced with the incoming sword energy, he kept waving the long sword in his hand, rigorous and unique, simple and direct, and there was a dull taste between waving and parrying. One could tell at a glance that this person practiced military martial arts.

Although his swordsmanship was sluggish, he seemed to be able to handle the incoming Shaoshang sword energy with ease.The long sword waved and blocked them one by one.

Afterwards, this person fell down, and without waiting for Xiao Cheng and Nan Rongshu to continue to come, he retreated into the forbidden army and shouted loudly:
"In the most important place in the palace, the assassin must not be let go. Those who retreat will be dealt with by the grand master! If you brothers do not retreat, there will be rewards!"

Grand Master Wang Xiao has conquered many enemy countries in the past 20 years, and his military laws are notoriously strict. Few people in the army are not afraid.

Hearing that someone stood up to preside over the army formation, and was suppressed by military law, all the imperial guards seemed to have found their backbone, and immediately surrounded that person.

"Raise the shield! Raise the shield!" The man roared, stepped forward again, and rushed directly to Nan Rongshu.

Nan Rongshu looked at the forbidden soldier, skipped over Xiao Cheng, and rushed directly to herself, frowning involuntarily.

I'm afraid it's not true, treat yourself as a soft persimmon!

Thinking of this, Nan Rongshu's face sank, and she snorted coldly, her figure suddenly got up quickly, and a phantom appeared, which made people's eyes blur.The cold light between the fingers swayed, heading towards the vital point of the forbidden army.

There was only a soft "dang" sound, and the long sword suddenly stood up, blocking Nan Rongshu's figure that was too fast to see clearly.

Nan Rongshu frowned, twisted her waist, retreated violently, and then attacked again.

The forbidden soldier stood on the spot with a solemn face, unmoved by the phantom figures constantly passing by.The long sword is swung, covering the whole body, and the water can't get in.

No matter how fast Nan Rongshu was, she was blocked every time she made a move.She even intentionally showed her flaws several times, trying to attract this person to attack, but that person was always unmoved, so cautious to the point of rigidity.

Xiao Cheng stood aside, seeing Nan Rongshu entangled for a long time, he stepped a little, and his figure floated to join the battle.

The Forbidden Army in front of me is only at the seventh level of cultivation, although there are few masters.But facing two eighth-rank fighters, it is obviously not enough.

But he was not flustered, his face was still solemn, and he swung the long sword in his hand, or the long sword pierced out the invisible energy that pierced the attack, or he swung the sword horizontally, blocking the rapid cold coming towards the vital parts mango.

In this way, two eighth-level warriors were directly held back by their seventh-level strength.

While the three of them were fighting together, a soldier of the Imperial Army hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and picked up the iron shield that had been thrown on the ground.

Seeing that someone took the lead, and there were a few more courageous imperial guards who wanted to stand out, they picked up their shields together and re-arranged the army formation.

Seeing this, the remaining officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army gathered together one after another, and once again gathered into a loose army formation.

Xiao Cheng's eyes moved slightly, he glanced at the group of forbidden soldiers who had gathered again, and said:

"Go, we can't delay any longer!"

Just as Nan Rongshu was about to attack that forbidden soldier again, upon hearing what Xiao Cheng said, she glanced at the forbidden soldier who had re-arranged the formation beside her, and said unwillingly:

"Okay, let's go!"

After saying that, the two wanted to withdraw their moves and retreat, the forbidden soldier saw this, stepped forward, and moved his long sword, the sword light was dense, as if he wanted to keep the two of them behind.

Without saying a word, Xiao Cheng stuck out his right thumb, and Shaoshang's sword energy came out vigorously, with invisible energy and a shocking momentum, he slammed into the imperial army.

Faced with such a majestic sword energy, the forbidden soldier didn't dare to be careless, so he had no choice but to retreat. The long sword was placed in front of him, and the long sword was instilled with internal force, colliding violently with this invisible sword energy.

There was only a crisp sound of "铛", and the long sword in the hands of the forbidden army broke.

Speaking of this long sword, it is only a standard long sword with ordinary materials. It can last until this time today. The military craftsmen who made this long sword are already worthy of praise.

The long sword in the guard's hand broke, and he had to retreat.

When he picked up another long sword from the ground, the figures of Xiao Cheng and the two had already disappeared into the distance.The forbidden army showed unwillingness and roared:

"Brothers, you must not let the assassin go, follow me!"

Xiao Cheng, whose figure had gone away, looked back at this moment.In the line of sight that ordinary people can't see, a white light shines above the head of the forbidden soldier.
