At the beginning, I gave up my military power with a cup of wine, and I ascended the throne

Chapter 79: Enraging the Northern Wei Empress

"charge."

Following the order from the commander of the imperial guards, thousands of cavalrymen began to charge.

What a powerful force it would be if thousands of troops charged together?
The earth trembled.

The sun is setting and the sky is dimming.

Shining on the armor of the Northern Wei imperial guards, it cast a golden halo, but also brought a biting cold.

Long swords and spears flashed with sharp cold light.

This was Xiao Han's first battle against the Northern Wei Imperial Guards. The Imperial Guards, known as the most elite million-strong armored force, had always been stationed in the imperial city and had never been to the Northern Wei border.

The elite are indeed the elite.

But he always felt that there was something missing from these imperial guards: they were full of murderous aura, but not fierce enough.

Just like lions and tigers in captivity, although they are fat and strong, and their claws are extremely sharp, they are not wild.

They are far inferior to the wolves who struggle on the brink of life and death every day and dare to bare their teeth to all ferocious beasts in order to survive.

This kind of elite only appears to be elite on the surface.

This is what is called "all show and no substance".

"Boom."

"Boom."

A huge roar echoed in my ears, and the white robes fluttered and whirred.

As the drizzle fell, he slowly raised the three-foot knife and held it horizontally in front of him.

The blade is sharp.

Then he slashed at the thousands of Northern Wei imperial guards with his sword.

The snow-white sword light bloomed in the valley.

The wind rises.

A terrifying edge permeates.

"Puff puff."

The armored cavalry at the front were cut in half.

The armor shattered.

The residual value is flying.

Hot blood gushed out.

Hundreds of cavalrymen didn't even have time to react, and their blood was spilled on the ground.

No one knew how he died.

The sword flashed across.

Everything was torn apart wherever it went.

The storm roared for just a few breaths.

Within the entire valley.

Apart from the man in white robe, there was no other living person.

In the dim twilight, the drizzle made sparse sounds.

The blood gathered together and turned into a pool of blood.

The corpses of war horses and the bodies of the imperial guards were scattered everywhere.

"Chichi."

The cliffs on both sides of the valley suddenly broke in the middle.

The rock above slid away, revealing two huge, smooth cut surfaces.

The power of a sword is so terrifying.

The world is dark.

The wind and rain are getting stronger.

The blood soaked the ground, rocks and gravel along with the rain, turning them bright red.

"Quack quack."

A circle of crows smelled the blood and circled over the valley, not daring to land but unwilling to leave.

"Snapped."

Throwing the long sword down casually, Xiao Han turned around and left the valley without looking back.

Disappeared in the vast night and rain.

Half an hour later.

The news was passed back to the Northern Wei imperial capital.

Outside the palace.

The two eunuchs stopped the guards who came to report and said, "Your Majesty has fallen asleep. If you have anything to report, please report it tomorrow."

"Step aside."

The guard refused to give in: "It's a big deal. If you delay things and His Majesty blames you, you will lose your heads."

"What's the commotion?"

The voice of the Northern Wei empress came from the bedroom.

Several eunuchs were terrified: "A guard came to report that there is something important to report."

"Wait a minute."

After a while, the door to the bedroom opened.

The empress sat back behind the gauze curtain.

In July, there was already a slight chill in the Northern Wei imperial city.

Inside the bedroom, there was an incense burner burning, with wisps of smoke rising.

"But has Xiao Han been caught?"

The empress looked lazy: "Is he dead or alive?"

"No." The guard knelt on one knee, terrified in his heart, but still reported honestly: "Xiao Han is a vicious thief. He killed seven masters of our Worship Hall in a valley dozens of miles south of the Imperial City."

"Ran?"

The empress chuckled: "This kid can run away. Is Gao Qian back?"

"No."

The guard prostrated himself on the ground, choking with sobs, "Eunuch Gao also died at the hands of this thief Xiao Han."

The smile on the empress's face disappeared immediately.

His face was gloomy.

The veil was opened.

She walked out and stood in front of the guards, barefoot, with her long black hair falling like a waterfall.

"What did you say?"

There was a hint of disbelief in her tone.

"Eunuch Gao and the seven masters of the Consecration Hall were all killed by Xiao Han."

The guard was terrified.

"Not only that, after killing Eunuch Gao and others, that evil thief Xiao Han also massacred three thousand imperial guards in the valley."

"Three thousand soldiers, not a single one was left alive. When we arrived, the entire valley was filled with broken arms and limbs."

"impossible."

The empress suddenly collapsed on the dragon couch. Two palace maids hurried over to support her, but she pushed them away.

"Pass the order."

The Northern Wei empress looked cold and indifferent: "If Xiao Han is alive, I want to see him. If he is dead, I want to see his body."

"promise."

The guards hurriedly stood up and left the hall.

The tragic deaths of Gao Qian and the three thousand imperial guards completely angered the Northern Wei Empress.

If Xiao Han didn’t die.

Where is her dignity?

Where was the face of the Northern Wei Dynasty?
The people from the Central Plains actually killed people wantonly outside the Northern Wei imperial city as if they were in an empty land.

If this gets out, the Northern Wei will become the laughing stock of the world.

The night is dark and gloomy.

Large numbers of cavalry left the imperial city.

Simultaneously.

Troops and masters from all over the place were mobilized, and the entire Northern Wei martial arts world came out in full force.

He must keep Xiao Han, the bold lunatic, at his waist.

Unfortunately, despite their extensive search, Xiao Han seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth.

A few days later.

Ganzhou territory.

A horse team walked slowly on the official road.

More than ten carriages were filled with furs and hung with the flags of the Yuwen family.

In one of the carriages, Xiao Han was resting with his eyes closed, and a beautiful woman was sitting next to him.

He changed into a clean green robe, and his appearance also changed drastically.

Became a middle-aged man.

for a long time.

Xiao Han opened his eyes, the brilliance in the depths of his pupils dissipated, and three-tenths of the Qi in his body returned to his Dantian.

Enter the realm of Hunyuan where one returns to simplicity and nature.

Complete inside and outside.

Just half a step away from crossing the celestial realm.

This trip north was hugely rewarding.

"Sir, your cultivation has improved again."

Ruoyan beside her sighed.

After receiving the news that Xiao Han entered Northern Wei and hunted down Xuan Ji, Ruoyan secretly rushed to Northern Wei.

these years.

The speed at which Luowang develops is unimaginable.

Even within the Northern Wei territory, Luo Wang's forces are not weak."

He successfully picked up Xiao Han outside the Northern Wei Imperial City without anyone noticing and headed south.

The caravan is affiliated with the Yuwen family.

With that flag, most soldiers patrolling the official road did not dare to check.

Even if there are people who are not afraid of death, Xiao Han has already changed his appearance and ordinary people cannot see any flaws at all.

"If you hadn't come, I would definitely have turned the Northern Wei Dynasty upside down before I left."

Xiao Han felt sorry.

"It's better to rush back to Xiliang as soon as possible."

Ruoyan said, "With the young master away, the people of Xiliang are uneasy. If the Northern Wei attacks at this time, it will be dangerous."

"And Jizhou will most likely watch them die without any help."

"Blood Shadow and the Six Sword Slaves are a bunch of trash."

Ruoyan complained: "You can't even handle this matter properly, and you even implicate the young master."

Xueying, Ruoyan, and the Six Sword Slaves basically dislike each other, and each of them looks down on the other two parties.
