I am a soldier in the border army

Chapter 622: Killing Gods on Earth! One after another!

Qingzhou is not a big province and is far inferior to Youzhou in vastness.

But this small piece of land can support and accommodate two Taiyi Tianjuns of the ninth realm.

This shows the outstanding people and great fortune of this place.

In the past, the people of Qingzhou would never take Youzhou, which was influenced by the barbaric culture of the grassland, seriously.

It’s a pity that times have changed. Who could have caused such an anomaly to occur in such a notoriously cold and bitter place?

The psychological advantages and sense of superiority accumulated over countless years, in the face of the cold and cruel reality, are not completely gone, but there is definitely not much left.

Just like at this moment, facing the young figure sitting peacefully in front of them, the two Qingzhou Taiyi Tianjuns who came in anger felt inexplicably frightened.

There is no way. The battle record of this young man in front of me since he came into the world is too terrifying.

Ten years ago, he was able to use the cultivation level of an eighth-level celestial being to fight back against a group of ninth-level Taiyi in the gap between the Yin and Yang worlds, and successfully killed two of them.

Ten years later, when everyone thought that he had been punished by heaven and had disappeared forever.

The battle in the northwest shocked everyone overnight.

It is said that in that battle, dragon kings from both the West Sea and the North Sea died.

Who wouldn't be afraid of such terrifying combat power?
Not to mention, Yuan Feng of the Runan Yuan family, who was later forced to retreat to Zhuozhou, died under the noses of these people.

"Drink tea."

Seeing Han Shao making a gesture to invite them for tea, the two Taiyi statues who were slightly absent-minded were startled and subconsciously picked up the teacups.

The moment they took a sip of the bitter tea, they realized their own gaffe.

Thinking about how they came to accuse Han Shao and he responded with "They deserve to die", their faces became uglier.

"Mr. Yan, you are too overbearing."

The noble families in the world are intertwined and interconnected, and some are even branches of large states and big families.

There are both interests involved and blood ties.

This time, Han Shao slaughtered every family in Leling City without even saying a word. What did he want to do?
Declare war on these two families? Or declare war on all the noble families in the world?
Feeling the pressure emanating from the guest seat opposite him, Han Shao smiled as if he was unaware of it.

"Are you two here... to call for justice?"

Isn’t this obvious enough?

The two of them snorted coldly and said indifferently.

"Lord Yan, shouldn't you give us an explanation?"

"Explain?"

Han Shao seemed to be amused by what the two said. After laughing for a while, he squinted his eyes and looked at the two of them.

"The evidence is irrefutable that the families and clans in this city are in collusion with the Huang Tian Dao rebels and are rebelling against Dayong and Your Majesty."

"I have now been granted the Nine Gifts and appointed as the commander-in-chief of all military forces at home and abroad. I will follow the emperor's orders to fight against the rebels and wipe out the disobedients."

"I wonder what you two want me to tell you?"

After hearing Han Shao's words, the two of them paused.

Ever since Huang Tiandao entered Qingzhou, noble families from all over the country have appointed their sons as Huang Tiandao officials with almost no concealment.

Such evidence of guilt is almost certain, how can it be washed away?

However, Qingzhou is not the only one doing this. From the first eight states that fell into Huang Tiandao's hands to the subsequent ten states that are constantly falling, which one is not doing this?

You, Han, are you going to kill people along the way? Do you really want to make enemies with all the noble families in the world?
The two men stared at Han Shao with gloomy eyes, and the Taiyi aura on their bodies continued to rise.

But no matter how they shook the original laws of this small piece of land, the young figure opposite remained motionless and consistent.

Facing those eyes as deep as the abyss of Guixu, although they didn't know what Han Shao was thinking, they were sure that it was almost impossible to use their numbers to bully the minority and force the other party to make concessions and compromise from the perspective of strength.

As a result, things become a little difficult to handle.

The two looked at each other and saw each other's frowning brows.

"Does Lord Yan want to kill them all?"

At their level and status, it doesn't make much sense to keep going around in circles and testing things.

Just speak frankly and speak candidly.

Faced with the two people's aggressive and cowardly behavior, Han Shao continued to smile and refilled their tea.

Every move he made did not involve any magical powers, he just moved his hands and feet like an ordinary mortal.

But the words he said were so solemn and murderous that it was totally inconsistent with the gentle expression on his face.

"To follow a thief is a crime that should never be punished, from ancient times to the present."

"I have come here with weapons, if I don't kill people, I will kill the chicken to scare the monkeys."

"Where is the dignity of our Great Yong? Where is the dignity of your Majesty? Where is my dignity?"

Now that the Yong Ji clan is in such a miserable state, if someone else were to say the word "glorious", it would certainly make people feel both ridiculous and laughable if they spoke of majesty when they opened their mouths or imperial power when they closed their mouths.

But at this moment, the two Qingzhou Taiyi couldn't laugh at all.

The phrases "killing the chicken to scare the monkey" and "my face" have already made Han Shao's attitude clear.

This time he came with his troops to kill people.

Not only must we kill the Huang Tian rebels, but we must also kill all those who follow them!
Realizing this, the two of them looked extremely ugly.

I wanted to turn hostile directly, but I didn't have the confidence enough.

In fact, if Han Shao had not acted so quickly and left no wiggle room for the noble families in Leling City, they would have come here today to seek cooperation.

But now that things have come to this, they can no longer open their mouths.

Because what’s the difference between talking about cooperation now and kneeling down and surrendering?
With their pride and reserve, how could they save face?

After a long silence, the two men, with a breath of anger stuck in their chests, looked directly at Han Shao, but finally did not directly extend the olive branch that they had offered to the banquet for the noble families that day.

Instead, he said it in a muffled voice with some embarrassment.

"Mr. Yan, can you please show some mercy for our sake?"

Han Shao laughed when he heard this.

"No."

These two simple words, coupled with Han Shao's expression at the moment, almost wrote on his face: "Who do you think you are? Do you think you deserve my respect?"

The two Qingzhou Taiyi, who had never been slapped in the face like this, felt a burning sensation on their faces instantly.

"Mr. Yan, you must know how to leave a way out for yourself! Too much rigidity will easily lead to failure!"

One of the two men, whose faces turned purple, stood up suddenly and spoke angrily.

"Since Lord Yan is so unruly, there is no need to talk!"

Having said that, he was about to leave in anger.

In response, Han Shao didn't even look at him and just said indifferently.

"Rules? I don't know what your rules are. I only follow my rules."

"Also, have you two forgotten that you came here uninvited today? I didn't invite you two to come."

After saying this, Han Shao picked up the teacup and sipped it with a contented look.

Serve tea to guests!

At this moment, another Qingzhou Taiyi saw this, his face suddenly changed, and he quickly reached out to grab the person next to him.

'The situation is pressing, we should be patient and cautious!'

After hearing a voice reminder, the angry Qingzhou Taiyi finally stopped being angry for a moment.

For a moment, he was neither angry nor able to sit down, so he just stood there with a red face.

Seeing this, the remaining Qingzhou Taiyi sighed in his heart, looked up at Han Shao, and took the initiative to slow down his tone and speak.

"Lord Yan, there's no need to be angry."

"Taishigong and I came to see Lord Yan today with good intentions. We do not want to cause any rift with Lord Yan."

After saying that, he suppressed the apology in his heart and continued.

"The tragedy in Leling City today has already happened, so let it be the past."

"What do you think, Lord Yan?"

Seeing that his old friend sold out all the noble families in Leling over a disagreement, Taiyi, the Taishi clan of Qingzhou, froze in his tracks and looked at him with an angry look.

Ren Taiyi, who was still sitting opposite Han Shao, ignored him and just waited quietly for Han Shao's response.

Han Shao, who was playing with the teacup in his hand, heard this with a somewhat amusement and teasing look on his face.

"What if I want to... continue killing?" As soon as these words came out, Taiyi of the Taishi clan suddenly became furious.

"Shuzi! How dare you!"

When Ren Taiyi saw this, he thought to himself, "This is bad!"
Sure enough, the next moment, a seemingly ordinary light suddenly appeared in this small hall.

tick-

A drop of blood as red as jade dripped onto the green jade slab. The Taiyi blood, which contained powerful strength, sparkled brightly as it rolled down.

Han Shao, who had been smiling and talking in front of them from beginning to end, looked at the pale-faced Taiyi of the Taishi clan with a dull face.

"You ungrateful animal!"

"I don't have the habit of beheading people in public. I'll leave my head on your neck. Go back! I'll take it back someday!"

The murderous energy that erupted at that moment, mixed with the horrifying bloody smell within it, almost turned the surrounding area into a Shura purgatory of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

At this moment, facing Han Shao’s two Taiyi, he finally remembered the evil name of this young junior in front of him!

Just imagine, this beast has slaughtered countless people on the grassland since it appeared in the world.

Later, he and the Huang Tianjun of Qingzhou turned around and slaughtered more than two million lives with their own hands!
How can the title of butcher be enough to describe the killing all the way to the present?
This is simply a living god of death!
"My patience is limited, why don't you just get out of here?"

The Taiyi of the Taishi clan had no time to stop the blood oozing from his neck, and subconsciously looked at the Taiyi of the Ren clan beside him.

At this time, Han Shao's gaze also fell on Ren Taiyi.

"What? Do you have any objections?"

When Ren Taiyi heard this, his throat moved for a moment.

"What do you mean, Lord Yan? I...what opinion can I have?"

After saying this, he avoided his old friend's gaze somewhat guiltily and comforted him.

"Taishigong, please leave first, and don't make Lord Yan unhappy again."

After saying this, he quickly whispered something in secret.

"A little impatience can ruin a great plan! Please, Grand Historian, for the long-term benefit of the Qingzhou nobles, please be patient for a while."

"Don't worry, I'll explain the pros and cons to him. With his mind and cunningness, he will definitely have some reservations, and both sides will be able to turn hostility into friendship!"

When Taiyi of the Taishi clan heard this, his expression changed from gloomy to bright.

The moment his Taiyi Taoist body was cut open, he truly felt a bone-chilling chill as if his death was imminent.

There is no doubt that even though he has repeatedly overestimated the boy's cultivation strength, when he actually faced him, he was shocked to find that he still underestimated the other party!

terrible!
He was really a little scared!

At this moment, he finally realized that if he continued to stay there with his hot temper, bad things would happen.

So in the face of his old friend's consolation, he simply took advantage of the situation to back off.

He didn't dare to look at Han Shao's cold gaze, but snorted coldly, waved his sleeves, and disappeared on the spot.

After the annoying old man left, Han Shao sneered.

"You are so ignorant, you deserve to die!"

Upon hearing Han Shao's words, Ren Taiyi's expression flashed with surprise.

He originally thought that Han Shao's words about taking Taishigong's head the next day were just angry words and superficial threats, and he was afraid that even Taishigong himself felt so.

But why does he feel now that things seem... not like this?
After a while of not knowing what to say, Han Shao seemed to see through his thoughts, squinted his eyes and smiled at him.

"I never joke with irrelevant people."

The two looked at each other, and a chill arose from behind Ren Taiyi, and even his soul froze for a moment.

"Lord Yan... this... this..."

Han Shao laughed when he saw this.

"Look how nervous you are, Mr. Ren, relax a little."

"Compared to the disrespectful Taishi, I find Mr. Ren much more friendly. Come, have some tea."

Seeing Han Shao put down the teacup and was about to refill his tea, Ren Taiyi somehow took the teapot from Han Shao.

"Mr. Yan, I'm coming."

Gollum-

The camellia appeared in the cup, and as the leaves floated up and down, he finally realized his servile nature at the moment when he was in a position of power.

When he met Han Shao's amusing eyes, his face turned red and he smiled awkwardly.

"Lord Yan is the most noble and honorable person. It's not good to trouble him all the time."

Never mind, it's embarrassing.

There is no one else around.

Seeing Han Shao smiling and drinking the tea he offered, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and was thinking about how to continue the topic that was interrupted at that moment.

But Han Shao did not give him the chance to speak. What he said after putting down the teacup made his eyes widen, and there was disbelief in his eyes.

"Tell me, what did you talk about at the banquet of Xun family in Yingchuan that day?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Ren Taiyi suddenly raised his head.

"Mr. Yan, how did you know?"

That day, they all gathered together as Taiyi before leaving, thinking that they were keeping it secret.

But now the Duke of Yan in front of him knew everything. How could he not be horrified?

At this moment, Han Shao bent his two fingers and gestured in front of his eyes, then pointed them at him and smiled calmly.

"You guys are staring at me, but can't I stare at you with my eyes?"

"There is no such thing in the world, isn't it?"

After saying this, Han Shao added a sentence without waiting for Ren Taiyi to respond.

"Qingzhou is too small. In my opinion, it is too crowded to accommodate two top families at once. What do you think, Mr. Ren?"

……

Serve tea to see the guests off.

Looking at Ren Taiyi's dazed look when he left, Han Shao smiled with satisfaction.

Whether it is fighting a war or doing things, Han Shao doesn't like to just push forward in a simple and rough way.

In that case, it would be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and cause unnecessary damage, and it would also be boring.

What does he like most?
It is differentiation and domestication.

Then they watched as these enemies, who were right in front of them, attacked and bit their once closest people with the most ferocious attitude.

To put it bluntly, it's dog bite dog.

He performed this drama very well when he marched north to the grasslands.

Although the stage has changed now, many things in this world are always the same and remain essentially the same.

After seeing off Ren Taiyi, the days that followed would be much calmer.

The Zhen Liao Army, which had been advancing southward with great momentum and continuously capturing cities and strongholds, suddenly stopped its advance after capturing twenty cities in two counties north of Qingzhou.

This gave the Qingzhou Huangtian Army, which had been defeated all the way since the Zhenliao Army crossed the river and headed south, a chance to catch its breath.

But before they could regroup after being terrified, an unexpected event instantly dragged them into the terrible abyss of despair.

The noble families of Qingzhou, who had been keeping out of their way on the surface but actually cooperating and making peace with them, suddenly attacked them without any warning!
The sudden and decisive fallout broke the bones of the entire Qingzhou Huang Tian Army almost overnight.

Even the new Qingzhou commander who succeeded Cheng Yuanyi was killed by the ancestor of the Qingzhou Ren family!
Most of the high-ranking officers of the Qingzhou Huangtian Army were almost wiped out in that battle!

Such a sudden change not only caught the Qingzhou Huangtian Army off guard, but also the remaining aristocratic families headed by the Taishi family were equally unprepared, shocked and angry.

He was not angry that Ren and the others suddenly attacked Huang Tiandao, but why they did not inform them.

Only the ancestor of the Taishi clan seemed to realize something. He immediately went to the Ren clan’s territory and asked questions.

But no one expected that these two old ancestors, who had been friends since their youth, would brazenly start fighting after just a few words.

The result shocked everyone.

The ancestor of the Taishi family is dead.

The next day, his head was personally presented to the Duke of Yan by the ancestor of the Ren family.
