Your skills are excellent, and now I have them too.

Chapter 125 He's Not a Local Tyrant

When Lu Zhao pulled out his weapon, the ordinary armed forces on both sides were dumbfounded, not knowing why this person had suddenly gone berserk.

Luo Tianchong and Bu Tianyan immediately realized that there was really something wrong with the "father and son".

As for the few people who rebelled against the Shang dynasty, they clearly knew the truth.

"As expected of the sect leader, Sui Chaoyu was sent to transmit coordinates, wasn't she...?"

The goatee smiled slightly and said confidently, "Stop him."

Lu Zhao was surprised to find that the first person to rush up was the bald man from the Zhao family.

At this moment, the reckless madness he displayed on the elevated highway was gone from his eyes; he was even calmer than most people.

"This person is probably a traitor hiding in the Zhao family. If that's the case, the Zhao family must have been kept in the dark."

Once Lu Zhao understood the key point, he understood everything. However, these minor details were no longer important. Facing the bald man blocking his way, he took a heavy step and immediately unleashed a powerful sweeping attack with his halberd.

boom! !

The bald man felt an unstoppable force coming from his arms, and he was completely unable to defend himself. His fists were shattered by a halberd.

puff!

A large amount of blood gushed from his chest.

One-hit kill.

When the bald man fell, the coldness in his eyes turned into confusion and bewilderment.

That rainy night, it seems, wasn't like that.

Lu Zhao didn't understand the confusion in his eyes.

What's so surprising?

You didn't die on the overpass back then, simply because I didn't want you to die.

Back then, I was a level below you. Now that we're at the same level, isn't it normal for me to defeat you in seconds?

At the same time, the polite and courteous smile on the goatee's face finally disappeared.

This young man was several times more dangerous than he had initially assessed when he disembarked.

"Stop him! Everyone!"

After he gave the loud order, the armed forces on board began to move.

Lu Zhao was experienced in combat and would not expose himself to a large number of guns. So he flashed and used his Qingling movement technique to move behind a container to avoid the line of fire. Then he rushed towards Sui Chaoyu's direction, not to find a strong man, but to send out the truth he had just figured out as soon as possible.

He possessed agile footwork and was very adept at maneuvering, but the woman whose feet barely touched the ground was no slouch either; she directly blocked his path.

"Surrender. The leader's plan can't possibly go wrong."

Although she doesn't have any special skills, she's quite good with words; while talking, she can also twirl a rapier in her hand.

Ding ding ding.

Lu Zhao sensed that this woman was stronger than the bald man, but not as strong as Hong Liu; she was probably at the late stage of the Overflowing Realm.

"I could kill this guy in seconds too."

The thought had barely crossed my mind when a warning signal suddenly rang out above my head.

Swish!

Lu Zhao rolled and dodged, narrowly avoiding the attack.

The man wielding two swords appeared where he had just been standing; if he hadn't dodged, he would have been cleaved into three pieces.

This man had no special skills, yet Lu Zhao only sensed danger halfway through his attack. This meant he was a dragon.

Gate.

One is in the fourth realm, and the other is in the fifth realm.

Lu Zhao assessed the current situation and knew he had to kill the two men to escape, and he had to be quick, or the goatee would catch up.

This is desperate.

But this only applies to ordinary overflow realms.

Snapped.

A snap of the fingers.

The piercing sound spread in all directions.

Breathing of a Dog

Logically speaking, martial artists of your level are not qualified to make me use these two moves.

But the situation is urgent now, so there's nothing we can do.

When the two were stung by the sound, they realized that it was a sound that shook the surrounding area. Then, when they saw the long halberd swinging wildly, they couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Isn't this Brother Lü Yang's combo move?

On the Void Sea Transport Ship, Lü Yang is at the fourth realm, and Lu Zhao is also at the fourth realm now, but he is traveling at three times the speed.

puff puff!

Two heads were severed by the halberd tip and fell onto the dry, cracked yellow earth.

The man with the dual swords, at the Dragon Gate Realm level, was far inferior to Hong Liu and was no match for Lu Zhao.

Without pausing, Lu Zhao finished killing the men and continued his charge toward the hills where Sui Chaoyu had disappeared.

But once he ran out of the cover of the heavy truck, gunfire followed.

Thump thump thump.

The rebel army was equipped with fully automatic weapons, which may have been smuggled from elsewhere.

Lu Zhao unleashed the Qingling rapier, his figure shifting swiftly to the side, and then thrust the sword into the ground.

Bang!

The force of the burst of energy stirred up a large cloud of dust, which spread in the wind and obscured his figure.

Lu Zhao felt several painful punctures in his back; the firepower was too intense, and he had been hit by several bullets just now.

However, thanks to the equipment provided by the Radish Group, including combat suits with embedded silk steel and the Iron Body Realm's defense, at most some bruises would remain on my body. As long as I wasn't constantly being shot at by hundreds of strong men, it wouldn't be a big problem.

The only thing that made him somewhat wary was that he constantly felt a murderous aura locking onto him from behind.

He knew it was that goatee.

He had already seen the special skill above the other person's head.

[Combined Light Fist 1v5]

At this moment, Goatbeard was also standing on the roof of a container truck. Instead of chasing forward, he clasped his hands together in a hammer-like posture. The hem of his coat moved without wind, and his inner energy was constantly concentrating.

Several seconds passed before Lu Zhao finally threw a punch, after the dust kicked up by his Qingling rapier had mostly dissipated.

Bang!

A beam of light as thick as a bucket shot towards Lu Zhao's back.

It's called a fist, but it's actually a projectile.

Cen Lanqi had used this move before, but he didn't need to stand on the roof of the car to gather his strength for a long time; he could do it with a simple gesture.

However, despite the effort put in, the power of the He Guang Fist should not be underestimated.

The beam of light shot out with a powerful and majestic force.

The goatee stared intently at Lu Zhao's retreating figure, determined to see the charred corpse with his own eyes.

boom!!

The beam of light exploded upon landing, illuminating the barely dawning sky.

"Now you're really going to die, aren't you?"

Goatbeard had just thought about it for a moment when his eyes suddenly widened.

Because he saw that the figure, while not exactly severely injured, was at least completely unharmed, running out of the explosion and rushing towards the highest point of the sand dune in the blink of an eye.

Is he immortal?!

Lu Zhao didn't care about his questions. He told me to ask my protective spirit, Xu Feng Chang Ji, what I had to say.

He had already climbed over the top of the sand dune and found Sui Chaoyu's figure; she was small and very cute.

They've gone way too far! If things had continued as they were supposed to, they might have been discovered and forced into the "cleaver plan."

At that moment, Sui Chaoyu was on the phone.

Although the information being relayed concerned the actions of the rebellious merchants, coordinated by the Grand General, and orchestrated by the Commander of the Armed Forces, the method of transmitting intelligence was remarkably simple and unpretentious.

"Yes, it's confirmed that the Shang rebels have appeared. I heard a fight breaking out over there. Hurry, I have to go help. I can't let my partner die there..."

He was taken aback when he saw Lu Zhao running towards him, shouting as he ran.

"Don't come! This is a trap, a diversionary tactic! Quickly take control of the continental army."

what?

What is this kid saying?

Sui Chaoyu was completely dumbfounded.

As he ran, Lu Zhao shouted out the shocking truth he had discovered.

"Song Qingfeng isn't some local tyrant, he's a merchant rebel! This isn't smuggling, it's a rebellion! They're planning to massacre the Linglong Guards in Wanxiang Continent!"

"Master, Master, you clearly didn't invite the Grand Master's strategist, so how did you know Meng Qing would be coming?"

The pink-haired girl, who looked to be only six or seven years old, was hugging a birdcage hanging above her desk and looking down at the boy.

people.

"Gongsun's faction failed to capture Wang Zhao, and their failure allowed me to gain an advantage. It confirmed that the old man Ji Ye had fallen into Wanxiang Continent. Don't be fooled by his constant constraints in the Void Sea; he is still a great astrologer. Once he lands, his computing power will be on a completely different level."

The deal I arranged—the money is real, the goods are real, even the two idiot brothers delivering the goods are real—is real. If it's real, Ji Ye will figure it out, and they'll definitely seize this clue.

In accordance with the Linglong Guard's style, they would definitely first plant spies, track the transaction location, arrest people, interrogate them, and search their souls. They would also use the ship's fuel to determine the location of their "base." In any case, they would definitely descend into the desert quickly.

As for why it's the Linglong Guard, well, look at the other high-ranking guards in the nearby star field: the Xuanxiang Guard, the Panyan Guard, and the Qianli Guard. They've already set off for the front lines right under our noses.

The Azure Sea Guards are scattered across various regions, but the Exquisite Guards remain completely undetected. Although they often engage in petty theft, they wouldn't be so secretive unless something major happened. Even I, the governor of a continent at the intersection of three major star systems, couldn't find a trace of them. So it's quite clear that they've come for the bait I laid out.

"The only thing I can't understand is how that idiot Zhao Yu got involved. It's completely illogical from beginning to end, like pure coincidence."

However, since our opponent is Meng Qing, I dare not take any chances. I'm afraid the mole might not be under Luo Tianchong's command, but rather in the Zhao family, where we might be caught off guard. So, to be on the safe side, I had no choice but to send them into the desert as well.

Song Qingfeng leaned back in his chair, his fist supporting his chin, a bronze coin flitting between his fingers, seemingly...

Answering questions is also a way of reviewing the situation.

The pink-haired little girl tilted her head and thought for a while, then said impatiently, "What are you babbling about? I'm asking you why you could determine it was Meng Qing even without fortune-telling?"

"Didn't I already answer that...?"

Song Qingfeng thought for a moment and felt that talking to this guy about these brain-taxing things was like casting pearls before swine, so he could only point to his temple with the finger he had been fiddling with.

"By reasoning."

"Deduction? I'm good at deduction too, so why can't I figure it out?"

Aside from eating, drinking, defecating, sleeping, and killing, you're not good at anything else.

Song Qingfeng was too lazy to say more. He looked up at the clock on the wall and said, "It's time. They should all be in place. Go wash your hands and get ready to work."

Just as he finished speaking the last word, a piercing alarm blared throughout the city.

Military base....

Outside a nearby villa, three military light off-road vehicles rammed through the gate, and a team of armed men rushed into the building.

The general's personal guards only realized what was happening when they saw the group of people go upstairs and then belatedly initiated an emergency combat response.

However, the intruding armed men were emboldened and raised their command arrows, shouting: "Enemy attack! The entire continent is under a state of emergency. Military and political affairs are now under the full control of the Governor."

Then, he raised a second command arrow.

"By order of the Governor, General Ma Yuejian, Commander of the Garrison in Vientiane Continent, obey the command."

The guards all stopped in their tracks. The alarm outside couldn't be faked. The command token hadn't been checked carefully, but who would dare to use a fake one?

On the second-floor corridor, a bald man wearing shorts ran out of the room, barefoot, with a thick layer of hair on his legs, as if he were wearing thermal underwear.

"What's going on?"

"General Ma, please return to camp immediately. Governor Songzhou requires you to lead the entire army and await orders outside the camp."

Ma Yuejian looked at the warrant, feeling uneasy and uncertain, but he didn't forget to close the bedroom door to block out the three naked women on the bed inside.

"Emergency? Bring me my clothes!"

Regardless, it was time to get back to camp. He took all the documents and orders stamped with the governor's seal in a daze, grabbed his clothes, and rushed down to the car.

He couldn't help but frown as he looked at the courtyard gate that had been smashed open.

No matter how you look at it, this is just too rude.

Well, military affairs are more important, and I'm afraid things are urgent.

He was practically carried into the car by several people and sped into the military command building. It took him several minutes to finally get his clothes on properly.

"Um, what's going on here?" he asked the adjutant in the passenger seat, still confused.

"General, please get out of the carriage first."

Someone came up and opened the car door, and Ma Yuejian subconsciously got out of the car.

Then he found himself surrounded by several people.

Even if he's a complete good-for-nothing who only rose to power through the arrangements of his family and other allies, he should realize something's wrong by now.

"What are you doing? Lieutenant, go and call all the captains here. Just tell them it's an urgent military matter."

"General, there's no need for that. The officers and soldiers of the Eighth Battalion have already assembled. You just need to give the order."

The adjutant handed over the written order, along with the general's seal.

"fart!"

Ma Yuejian was furious. "Where is Ma Cheng, the captain of the Sixth Battalion? Summon him to see me."

He still couldn't believe that his own juniors, whom he had placed in the military, would betray him.

A man who looked like a civil official walked out from behind the group of people in front.

"Ma Cheng disobeyed military orders and has been executed on the spot by this officer in accordance with wartime management regulations."

Ma Yuejian recognized them as people from the Governor's Office, and was even more shocked and furious: "Where did this military order come from! I haven't given the order yet!"

The civil official stared at him coldly for a while, until his eyes began to dart away, before handing him the official seal and pressing it onto the military order.

"Isn't this it?"

I don't know how a civil official who has never practiced martial arts could be able to hold down the hand of a commanding general.
