Eternal Sword

Chapter 734 Song Wu Uprising
When everyone heard the news, they were all sighing.

Chen Tang couldn't help but think of what Jian Zong said back then: "In a hundred or a thousand years, not to mention Nanxia and Beiqian, even the Ye family will be in decline and decay, no different from ordinary people."

"Nothing in the world can last forever. The fortune of a country has its own destiny. Its rise is sudden, and its fall is also sudden."

Now it seems that what the Sword Sect said was right.

Chen Tang pondered for a moment, then stood up and said, "I have to go back to the south."

"Are you going to deal with Han Jingdao?"

Li Yan asked.

Everyone saw Chen Tang's intention.

Chen Tang nodded and said, "Han Jingdao is the Lingbao Grand Priest of Xuantian Sect, practicing the Heavenly Book. Among the Eight Sons of Xuantian, only he, Sun Lingxiu and Lu Xun are left. These three cannot be kept."

Before dealing with Dao Zong, first cut off Dao Zong's left and right arms.

Li Yan said: "I will prepare an elite force and let Shuhu lead the people to go south with you."

"Thank you for your kindness, uncle."

Chen Tang said: "But speed is of the essence in war, and bringing an elite force with us will cause many inconveniences."

After exchanging a few words with everyone, Chen Tang immediately set off, rode on the little golden roc, turned into a ray of golden light, and galloped towards the south.
-
The Southern Xia was destroyed and the situation changed dramatically.

With the demise of Zuixianlou, the martial arts world was also in turmoil.

Han Jingdao entered the capital, established Southern Chu and proclaimed himself emperor.

In order to eliminate hidden dangers and disintegrate the Northern Expedition Army, he vigorously strangled the old generals of the Northern Expedition Army who had different intentions, broke up the Northern Expedition Army soldiers, broke them up into small groups, and incorporated them into the Imperial Guards.

This army, which was once the most powerful army of Southern Xia, almost suffered a devastating disaster.

Song Wu fled the capital, gathered more than 1,700 former soldiers of the Northern Expedition, started an uprising in Jingkou, killed the Nanchu troops stationed there, and was elected commander-in-chief of the Northern Expedition by other generals.

After this disaster, the Northern Expedition Army lost many high-ranking generals, some died, and some surrendered.

Among the generals who were unwilling to submit to Han Jingdao and dared to fight against him, only Song Wu had the highest reputation and status.

However, the rebel army that Song Wu raised again was still too weak and was far from being able to compete with the Southern Chu army.

What's more, Nanchu also has Han Jingdao, a powerful person in the state of transformation.

This day.

Ye Yushi went down the mountain with the Sword Pavilion Order and issued a proclamation to all directions, summoning the forces of the underworld and the heroes of the green forest to attack Han and Chu together.

This was the second time someone from Jiange came down the mountain holding the Jiange Order.

The first time was the Battle of Xiajiang, when Ye Xuan came out for the first time and formed the Northern Expedition Army to block Emperor Wu’s southern expedition, thus establishing the reputation of Shuai Xuan.

But this time, Jian Zong and Ye Xuan had both passed away.

The reputation of Jiange has fallen to the bottom.

Although the Sword Pavilion Order is there, Ye Yushi is too young. Although he is quite famous in the martial arts world, his cultivation is only innate, and he is far from having the strength to command the heroes like Jian Zong and Ye Xuan.

Langya Pavilion was the first to respond.

The former Nanxia Second Pavilion has long since disappeared after a hundred years of wind and rain.

But at this moment, they joined forces again.

Following closely, a group of descendants of Feixue Hall from the Yizhou Bashan Sword Sect came down the mountain.

Tianyin Valley in Jingzhou, the Jiangzhou boat gang, the Tianma Escort Agency, the Yuezhou Tea Ceremony School, the Huanhua Sword School, the Wuzhou Taohuawu and the Plum Blossom Sword School all responded.

Rumor has it that several powerful hidden masters in Taoyuan Valley have also come out.

For a time, a storm was about to come to Southern Shenzhou!
-
The capital city of Nanchu.

The inner courtyard of the palace.

Emperor Han Jingdao of Chu sat in the middle, with two Taoist masters wearing Taoist robes sitting on his left and right. They were Sun Lingxiu and Lu Xun.

At this moment, Han Jingdao's face was as gloomy as water, with a hint of worry between his brows.

Sun Lingxiu said, "Although Song Wu's group has made a lot of noise, they can't do anything. Jiange is no longer what it used to be. Even if there is a Jiange Order, it will be useless. Brother Han, why worry?" Lu Xun said, "I heard that Taohua Jushi Liu Qian and Feixing Taisui have come out of seclusion."

Han Jing said, "Song Wu was born in Taoyuan Valley, so his masters will naturally not stand idly by."

"Has anyone among them entered the realm of transformation?"

Sun Lingxiu asked.

"I haven't heard of it." Lu Xun shook his head.

Sun Lingxiu said: "Then there is nothing to worry about. As long as Brother Han takes action and the two of us assist him, there is nothing to worry about those Grandmasters in Taoyuan Valley."

“It’s not these people that I’m worried about.”

Han Jingdao said in a deep voice: "I just got the news that Chen Tang is not dead."

"what!"

Sun Lingxiu and Lu Xun's faces changed.

The two of them witnessed with their own eyes that Chen Tang killed the leader of Xuantian and Queen Yin, and even used "karma fire" to injure Dao Zong.

Later, he died together with the Sword Emperor in the Three Thousand Snow Ridges.

This person is not dead?

Han Jing said, "This man first went to Yizhou, killed the Yin Demon, scared off the Dacheng army, and then went north. He must have gone to avenge Ye Xuan and settle accounts with the monk Faqing."

Lu Xun frowned and said, "This man is not dead, which is indeed a bit tricky. He has a deep hatred for our Xuantian Sect, and we have no room for maneuver with him."

"Oh shit."

Sun Lingxiu recalled the past and couldn't help cursing, saying: "At the beginning, I almost strangled this kid to death, but he was saved by the Sword Sect halfway. If not for that, how could these things happen later."

Lu Xun said: "Brother Han is a Grandmaster of the Transformation Realm, and we are all in the Nascent Soul Realm. If the three of us join forces, don't we have a chance of winning against him?"

After this question was asked, the yard fell into silence.

After a long while, Han Jingdao slowly said, "I can't say there is no chance, I can only say the chances of winning are slim."

Even if it was Chen Tang a year ago, the three of them wouldn't have much chance of winning against him.

What’s more, after a year, who knows how much Chen Tang has grown.

Han Jingdao frowned and said, "The only person in the world who can suppress this boy is probably our Master."

"Shall we send a message to Kunlun Mountain and ask our master to come out?"

Lu Xun asked.

Sun Lingxiu said, "I suggest that the three of us go to Kunlun Mountain to meet our master."

It would take some time for the message to reach Kunlun Mountain even if Dao Zong came down the mountain.

During this period of time, if Chen Tang comes looking for them, what will the three of them do?
It sounds nice to say that he is going to Kunlun Mountain to meet his master, but in fact he just wants to avoid Chen Tang.

Han Jingdao also knew in his heart that Sun Lingxiu's suggestion was more prudent.

However, he had just conquered the world and hadn’t even warmed up to the emperor’s chair when he had to flee to Kunlun Mountain. He couldn’t help feeling unwilling.

In addition to some former generals of the Northern Expedition, Song Wu also has support from various forces in the martial arts world, so his momentum is quite strong.

With his departure, there will be no one in charge of Nanchu, and the newly gained empire will soon be handed over.

"To be on the safe side, we must go to Kunlun Mountain to meet our master."

Han Jingdao pondered for a moment and said slowly: "However, before going to Kunlun Mountain, we must first take a breath and solve the hidden dangers on Song Wu's side!"

"When will we do it?"

Sun Lingxiu asked.

"Leave now!"

Han Jingdao stood up and said murderously: "The three of us will go to Jingkou, kill as many people as possible, and then rush to Kunlun Mountain immediately!"
