Eternal Sword

Chapter 447 The bloody storm

Dawn has broken above the Cangshan Mountains.

The Northern Expedition Army had already counted the corpses and captured some remnants of the Xuantian Sect who were hiding in the Cangshan Mountains and had not had time to escape.

These people were so frightened that their faces turned pale and they trembled. They confessed everything without waiting for the Northern Expedition Army to interrogate them.

After listening to the lieutenant general's report, Wang Xiaobo nodded.

This hilltop looked extremely horrifying with corpses strewn all over the place, but in fact, there were only more than a thousand Xuantian soldiers who died at the hands of Chen Tang and the other two.

Half of the Xuantian Army fled.

This is not difficult to understand.

There are only two people on Chen Tang's side, and they can't be in two places at once.

According to the Xuantian Army who managed to survive, at first they were instigated by Master Xuan, and everyone was fearless and brave enough to move forward.

But in the end, too many people died.

Chen Tang seemed like the Black and White Impermanence from the underworld, taking souls and taking lives wherever he went, and no one could stop him!

In addition, almost all the masters of this altar died at the hands of Chen Tang and the other two.

Without the instigation of these masters' words, the mentality of the Xuantian Army was completely shattered by Chen Tang!

Fear spread like a plague among the Xuantian Army and spread rapidly.

At first, only a few people fled for their lives, and then a group of people fled in all directions.

The army was defeated like a mountain!
However, this Xuantian Sect is not facing another army.

But two young people.

Wang Xiaobo asked, "Why was the chief priest killed by Chen Tang?"

Song Wu replied: "For specific details, you have to ask the people of the Plum Blossom Sword School."

Mei Qingyuan and his group came here to meet Wang Xiaobo and told him everything that happened in the Plum Blossom Sword Sect, from how he was plotted against by his abandoned disciple, to how the Plum Blossom Sword Sect almost changed hands, to Chen Tang's appearance and then his departure.

Wang Xiaobo, Ye Taoyuan and others heard that Chen Tang had invited the owner of Xiaoyao Tower and other masters of various martial arts sects to go to Cangshan together to wipe out the Xuantian Army, but was rejected and ridiculed. Everyone had different expressions.

"There are many people in the martial world who are just vain names, and none of them can match the sharpness of a young man's sword."

Wang Xiaobo showed a sarcastic expression and hummed softly.

The reason why he admired Chen Tang so much was not just because of Chen Tang's methods.

There are many people who are better at martial arts than him, both in the court and in the martial arts world.

But who among these people has the courage and spirit to challenge the Xuantian Sect with just one sword!

The same is true for those martial arts sects that have been passed down for decades or even hundreds of years.

They are all timid and hesitant, and are not even as good as a young man who is just starting out.

"The Great Xia martial arts world is about to be in chaos and bloodshed."

Wang Xiaobo sighed and glanced at the many martial arts people present.

Within a day, these outlaws will spread what they saw and heard tonight.

In Langya Pavilion, the battle between Chen Tang and Xia Yuanxian seemed insignificant compared to tonight's battle.

After tonight, the entire martial arts world will be shaken.

Although the Xuantian Sect suffered such a major setback and heavy losses, it would never let Chen Tang go.

I just don't know how long this young man can hold out against the Xuantian Sect's pursuit?
At this moment, a red firework shot up into the sky from the direction of the capital and bloomed in mid-air.

"Ok?"

Wang Xiaobo glanced around and frowned slightly.

This is the fireworks order to summon the imperial guards outside the city to enter the capital.

Something happened in the capital too?

Such a big commotion happening in the capital, an important place under the feet of the emperor, must be a big deal!

Wang Xiaobo did not dare to delay. He gave a few simple instructions, then moved and rushed towards the capital. He was so fast that he disappeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.
-
Beijing. Qingyu Tower.

Prime Minister Xia Dao hurriedly came from the Prime Minister's Mansion with many personal guards. When he arrived at Yaohua Pavilion, his face changed drastically and his eyes were bloodshot!
He had just fallen into a sound sleep when he was woken up by his servants. Just as he was about to lose his temper, he was told that something had happened to Xia Yuanxian.

When asked about the specific details, the servants hesitated and dared not speak clearly.

Xia Dao had already prepared for the worst in his mind, but when he saw this scene with his own eyes, he still felt a pang of heartache, as if struck by lightning!

"My son Yuan Xian... is dead?" Xia Daozi still couldn't believe it. He grabbed the commander of the imperial guards, Ling Xingrong, in front of him and asked in a trembling voice.

"Prime Minister, please accept my condolences."

Ling Xingrong lowered his head slightly and spoke in a low voice.

"How could this happen? How is this possible!"

Xia Daozi's eyes widened, his fists clenched, his whole body trembling, and he shouted loudly: "My son has the potential to be a master, how could he die here! Who dares to kill him!"

All the imperial guards commanders in the room were silent.

Everyone had checked the wound and Xia Yuanxian was killed with one knife, cleanly and neatly.

The one who made the move was a master.

The same goes for several others.

Including the top of the Fengyun list, 'Thousand Shadow Sword' Lin Mubai, they were all killed with one sword.

Judging from the traces at the scene, Lin Mubai should have taken action, but was killed by the other party with a single knife!

Liu Yingxiu and Xiao Wuhen were poisoned and had no power to resist.

The wound of Liu Mengzhen, the most famous courtesan in the capital, was different from those of the others. She must have been killed by a weapon such as a dagger.

It was also a one-shot kill.

"I see!"

Xia Daozi suddenly said, "It must be that Chen Tang. He had a grudge against Yuan Xian and came to the capital to seek revenge! Yes, it's this person!"

Several commanders of the imperial guards looked at each other and remained silent.

They had just looked at the wounds and examined the signs of fighting at the scene. The murderer who killed Xia Yuanxian and others was obviously a top knife expert.

As we all know, that Chen Tang uses a sword.

Moreover, with Chen Tang's level of cultivation, he is not yet able to reach such an exaggerated level.

Even Lin Mubai, who was at the top of the list, couldn't withstand a single blow from this man.

This person's cultivation is at least one level higher than Lin Mubai and others.

Seeing that Xia Daozi was furious and had completely lost his mind, several commanders of the imperial guards chose to remain silent, not wanting to offend him.

It would be futile to explain at this time.

What's more, Chen Tang did have a grudge with Xia Yuanxian.

Xia Daozi had no place to vent his anger, so it was good to have such a goal.

"It wasn't Chen Tang who did it."

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.

Neither hurried nor slow, yet revealing an unquestionable majesty!

"Who?"

Everyone looked up subconsciously and were startled when they saw the person coming.

The voice was initially far away, but when everyone looked in the direction of the sound, the person had already appeared at the door!
Came so fast!

"Be bold!"

Xia Daozi was furious and shouted, "Anyone who dares to excuse Chen Tang must be an accomplice of the murderer. Imperial guards, listen to my order, arrest this man!"

The several commanders of the imperial guards present looked embarrassed and did not move.

"What are you doing standing still!"

Xia Dao had lost his mind due to the sudden loss of his son. He went crazy and pointed at several imperial guards and shouted, "Are you all rebelling?"

"Humph!"

There was a cold snort from behind.

This voice was like a wake-up call, drilling into Xia Daozi's mind, making his ears buzz and his whole body dazed.

Xia Dao subconsciously turned his head and saw the person coming. He felt a chill run down his back and he calmed down instantly!

Commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition Army, General Wang Xiaobo!
