Eternal Sword

Chapter 248 Shura
Chen Tang's knife instantly made the entire hall quiet.

This man holds the imperial token, as if the emperor himself were here, with immense power, he can execute first and report later!

The Qinglong Division guards looked at each other and remained silent.

They are all fifth-rank warriors.

Also present were two fourth-rank captains from the Qilin Division and the Suzaku Division. Even if they took action, they would not be able to gain any advantage.

Those who know the current affairs are handsome.

Yan Qi and Jing Wuming looked at each other.

The two men knew clearly that Chen Tang's strike had invisibly solved a huge hidden danger for them.

If Lou Yan was taken to the capital, there is a great chance that he would be able to save his life with the help of Xuantian Sect and Qinglong Division.

When the time comes, Lou Yan will definitely not let them go.

Now, Chen Tang killed Lou Yan with one knife.

Whether it is the Xuantian Sect or the Qinglong Division, they will focus their attention on Chen Tang.

After all, the bloody battle at Xuantian Temple and Lou Yan’s death were all caused by Chen Tang.

Even if they are held accountable in the future, their crimes will not be too serious.

Even in the future, no one might notice the presence of these two people tonight.

The two had mixed feelings, gratitude and a hint of guilt.

They are in the government and have too many concerns, and they are far from having the courage like Chen Tang.

The county magistrate Zhao Ruqi's eyes twitched wildly, and he finally realized how terrifying this young man was.

"There's no need to force him. He killed so many people today and caused such a big commotion. Whether it's the Qinglong Division or the Xuantian Sect, they will definitely not let him go!"

Zhao Ruqi was thinking in his mind.

But Chen Tang had no intention of letting him go!
"I heard that you colluded with the county governor and embezzled a lot of money and grain. Is this true?"

Chen Tang killed Lou Yan and turned to walk towards Zhao Ruqi.

As he passed by Ye Zhi, he tapped Ye Zhi's shoulder with the back of his knife and asked slowly.

Ye Zhi swallowed and said, "Yes, yes, it was Zhao Ruqi's idea. I just went with the flow..."

He didn't dare to lie and could only put the blame on Zhao Ruqi as much as possible.

"Master Ye, this is not something you can say carelessly!"

Zhao Ruqi's face changed, and he said quickly: "We two did leave some money and food, but that was for the people of Yunduan County and for the country, without any selfish motives..."

"Fuck your motherfucker!"

Chen Tang couldn't listen any longer and started to curse, "You embezzled the relief money for the capital, and you dare to speak nonsense in front of me!"

"The emperor has given me the imperial token to kill officials like you!"

Chen Tang shouted loudly and rushed towards Zhao Ruqi with a knife in hand.

"what you do!"

Zhao Ruqi's face changed drastically. He drew out the long sword from his waist and shouted, "Come here, capture this guy!"

"Who dares to move!"

Jing Wuming looked around at the densely packed city defense troops outside the hall, ready to move, and said sternly: "Chen Tang holds the token bestowed by the emperor. Anyone who dares to touch him will be tantamount to treason!"

The leaders of the city defense forces are not fools either.

They were not only afraid of the imperial token, they were even more wary of Chen Tang's methods.

On the way here, someone passed by Xuantian Temple. Out of curiosity, he went in to take a look and almost vomited on the spot!
Seeing that no one dared to move, Zhao Ruqi panicked.

He was seen holding a long sword in his hand, with the energy flowing out of his dantian. He shook his wrist, raised a few sword flowers, and stabbed towards Chen Tang.

When Chen Tang saw the momentum of Zhao Ruqi's sword and the force of his thrust, he deduced that this person had the strength of a fifth-grade cultivator.

However, in his opinion, Zhao Ruqi's sword was full of flaws and was not worth worrying about!
Swish!
A flash of knife light appeared and then suddenly disappeared!
A divine sword!

It seemed as if Chen Tang's knife had never been moved.

To everyone, it seemed that Chen Tang had just raised his arm.

Before everyone could see clearly, the knife light disappeared.

Zhao Ruqi remained motionless, holding his sword raised to thrust, his eyes wide open, a trace of astonishment flashing in the depths of his eyes.

The long sword in Zhao Ruqi's hand suddenly broke into two pieces, and one piece fell to the ground.

The next moment, a shocking blood mark appeared on his body!
A knife wound ran diagonally from the right shoulder, across the chest and abdomen, to the waist and ribs.

Blood soaked through his clothes.

Just one knife cut off all hope of survival of Zhao Ruqi!

Although he is a fifth-rank warrior, he has cultivated internal energy.

But during the more than ten years since he became the county magistrate, he neglected his self-cultivation and spent his days drinking and having fun, hugging women left and right, and looking very happy.

His figure had long been out of shape, he had a big belly, and his swordsmanship was much less sophisticated.

Therefore, in Chen Tang's opinion, Zhao Ruqi's swordsmanship was full of flaws and loopholes.

With the help of the divine light state, Zhao Ruqi's life was killed with just one strike!

"You will be the governor of Yunduan County for the time being!"

Chen Tang looked at the county lieutenant Yu Yuyou who was not far away.

The Qilin Division had investigated this county lieutenant and found him to be a relatively upright person.

"This……"

Yu Yuyou looked hesitant and did not agree immediately.

Chen Tang said, "Send someone to release the monk from Changqing Temple now. Tomorrow, make the confession and testimony of the master of Xuantian Temple public, so that the people in the county can know the truth about the poisoned porridge case."

"The duty lies."

Yu Yuyou said in a deep voice: "Even if he is not the county magistrate, I will announce this matter truthfully."

Jing Wuming said, "Master Yu, there is no need to shirk your responsibility. The flood in Qingzhou has not been resolved yet, and someone in Yunduan County needs to take charge of everything."

Yu Yuyou pondered and said, "In that case, I will not refuse. I will temporarily serve as the county governor. I will make a decision after the emperor sends me other edicts."

"Master Chen, I have finished speaking."

Ye Zhi looked at Chen Tang and said pitifully.

"very good."

Chen Tang nodded and said, "I'll take you on your way right now!"

"You, you, I've already confessed everything, why do you still want to kill me!"

Ye Zhi was startled and spoke incoherently.

Chen Tang sneered: "If I let you go, who will pay for the lives of those you poisoned?"

Before he finished speaking, Chen Tang chopped off Ye Zhi's head with a knife!

The hearts of the onlookers all skipped a beat.

The most powerful man in Yunduan County was now killed.

Death was so quick.

Chen Tang said: "Tomorrow, hang this bastard's head on the top of the city wall, and let everyone inside and outside the city see his end!"

If he had to leave evidence, Chen Tang would have killed him with one knife at Xuantian Temple!
Chen Tang took a look at the 'Eternal' sword.

This knife had just accompanied him from Xuantian Temple to the County Magistrate's Mansion. Countless souls had died under the knife, but there was not a single stain of blood on the knife.

But the handwriting of those two lines of poetry looked a little darker in blood color!
The captain of the police, Li Jin, in the hall looked pale.

He had just brought Chen Tang into Yunduan County during the day, but that very night, this man massacred Xuantian Temple and beheaded the temple master.

The captain of the Qinglong Division died.

The governor of Yunduan County died and the ruler changed!
There are no intrigues or power struggles.

This young man, armed with a knife, used an ancient and barbaric way of the underworld to push his way forward and cleansed up the entire Yunduan County!

Is this the Lion-Tiger Arhat?

I think he doesn't look like a Buddhist Arhat, but more like a Shura from hell!
