From a slave to the Great Qian Martial Saint

If people can have enough to eat, who would rebel?

Chen Shi always believed this to be true.

He had just arrived at Knife Ridge Valley yesterday, and he was already thinking about what he should do if the rebels really came and there were a lot of them.

After thinking it over and over, this was the only solution I could come up with.

Make sure they are well-fed!

So he immediately sent two men on horseback to contact Xiao Fengxiao's caravan and arrange for grain to be transported here.

Hearing that Suibin City was about to fall, Xiao Fengxiao's grain convoy was already waiting nearby, so the distance was not very far.

After a day and a night of hard work, they transported twenty or thirty cartloads of grain, totaling ten thousand catties.

In addition, Chen Shi temporarily allocated several thousand taels of silver as "settlement expenses" for the rebels.

Chen Shi wasn't sure if it would work, but he had no other good ideas at the moment, so he had no choice but to take a gamble.

Fortunately, he won his gamble!

And unexpectedly, they caught a big fish in the net.

"You hold those two off, I'll take care of the others first!"

Besides General Yang Youzhi, there were a total of fifteen people, but only two of them were able to solidify their blood and qi.

The quality of the rebel army's soldiers was still too poor. Eighth-rank and seventh-rank martial artists were considered experts in their ranks and could serve as guards for their commander.

"yes!"

Shen Bi followed beside him, responding with a cold laugh.

They were only at the early stage of the Formation Realm, while she was already at the middle stage, cultivating the Jade Goddess Art, her entire body almost like white jade, with extremely strong defense. Let alone entangle them, she might even be able to deal with these two opponents before Chen Shi.

"Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!"

Seeing Chen Shi and Shen Bi rushing up, Yang Youzhi was terrified. He shouted loudly and hurriedly retreated.

Including the one who had given the order earlier, the remaining fifteen men gritted their teeth and roared as they charged forward.

As Chen Shi instructed, Shen Bi engaged the two seventh-rank officials, while Chen Shi dealt with the remaining thirteen eighth-rank officials.

Chen Shi's current strength is enough to fight a sixth-rank general, while a mere eighth-rank general is no match for him.

Click!

The scorpion's pincers, like giant clamps, snapped a person's neck in an instant. At the same time, the scorpion's tail lashed out from behind, its barbs piercing another person's throat.

In the blink of an eye, both of them were dead!

Chen Shi remained expressionless and without the slightest pause, then lunged at the others.

One person can be killed in a move or two; how much time can a mere ten or so people take?

Finally, only the last general remained. He only realized what was happening after everyone around him had died. His face filled with terror, he turned to run away, but there was no way to escape.

Chen Shi chased after him and shattered his heart with a palm strike from behind, killing him cleanly and decisively.

After finishing his meal here, Chen Shi didn't linger and turned to Chen Bi.

Despite fighting two opponents alone, Shen Bi still held the upper hand. One of them had already been injured by her and was about to be dealt with.

Chen Shi rushed over and killed the seriously injured man first.

"I'm the one who injured him!"

Shen Bi's eyes widened, and he quickly shouted.

"Don't waste time!"

Chen Shi remained expressionless, gave an order, and immediately lunged at the last person.

"snort!"

Shen Bi pouted and rushed forward as if afraid that Chen Shi would steal the credit again.

Seeing two experts rushing towards him at the same time, the last man looked distressed. Was it really worth it?

However, he died at Chen Shi's hands after only a few moves.

"I was so close! I almost killed him!"

Shen Bi pouted, looking at Chen Shi with a resentful expression.

Chen Shi ignored him and looked at General Yang Youzhi, who was still standing there, frantically flipping through books.

There are houses of gold and beauties in books, but can there really be saviors in books? He's really obsessed with reading. No wonder he hasn't even passed the imperial examinations for so many years.

"You, all of you, don't come any closer! Let me tell you, I am a celestial being descended to earth, sent to save all people and eliminate the suffering of the world!"

He tucked the book into his pocket and looked at Chen Shi and Shen Bi, who were about to attack him. Yang Youzhi's eyes were filled with panic, but he still tried to put on a brave front.

"A celestial being descending to earth?"

Chen Shi sneered. This kind of nonsense could only fool those ignorant people.

Then his face darkened, and he was too lazy to listen to his nonsense, so he prepared to take action.

As the leader of the rebel army, Yang Youzhi's head was worth five thousand military merits!

Moreover, killing Yang Youzhi would be a great achievement for him, so letting the five thousand rebels return to their hometowns would be nothing.

"Halt! Don't blame me for not warning you! I have 100,000 heavenly soldiers hidden in my sleeve!"

"Heavenly soldiers and generals? Ha, fine, call one out so I can see."

It has already been determined that Yang Youzhi is just a poor, pedantic scholar, so weak that killing him would be no more difficult than killing a chicken.

Chen Shi crossed his arms and looked at him with amusement.

"Fine! Boy! This Heavenly Venerable is merciful and compassionate, and originally intended to let you go, but you insisted on courting death!"

Yang Youzhi snorted coldly, then made a hand seal and chanted incantations.

"The Celestial General is here! You creatures of grass and wood, quickly borrow the spirits of mountain and tree demons. Let the wind be your bones, let fire be your eyes, trample mountains and rivers, all will become my soldiers! Hurry, hurry, as the law commands! Rise, rise, rise!"

Looking at Yang Youzhi, who was stomping his feet and acting strangely, Chen Shi sneered, then his gaze turned cold.

Whoosh!

Just as Chen Shi was about to make his move, a sudden gust of evil wind arose, and even with Chen Shi's cultivation level, he was momentarily unsteady on his feet.

He subconsciously took a few steps back, exerting his strength to resist the fierce wind. The next moment, another blinding golden light burst open in the air. Chen Shi frowned and subconsciously shielded his eyes with his hand.

After a few moments, once he had adjusted, he looked up and gazed around.

Upon seeing this, his expression changed drastically.

In mid-air, thousands of majestic generals, wielding halberds and swords, stood in neat rows, their golden armor gleaming.

"How could that be!"

Shen Bi stood to the side, his face filled with terror.

"What?! There really are heavenly soldiers and generals...?"

"impossible."

Chen Shi frowned and turned to Yang Youzhi again, his expression serious.

"What kind of tricks are you playing, pretending to be a ghost or a demon!"

"A trick? Ha! I'll show you what a trick it is! Heavenly soldiers and generals, heed my command: slay this fiend!"

Yang Youzhi, his face full of smugness, shouted and pointed at Chen Shi.

"Yes, sir!"

With a loud shout in the air, a golden-armored general flew down from mid-air, expressionless, and slashed fiercely at Chen Shi with his halberd.

Chen Shi's eyes widened, and he dared not be careless. He subconsciously drew his foot-long knife to defend himself.

clang!

A piercing sound rang out, accompanied by a burst of sparks, as if a mountain had crashed down from the sky. Even with Chen Shi's strength of several thousand pounds, he was sent flying.

The next moment, before Chen Shi could react, the golden-armored general was already in front of him, raising his halberd once again.

"Oops!"

Chen Shi's expression changed drastically. If that halberd were to strike, his life would be in grave danger.

But at this moment, he had not yet gotten up, so he had no strength left to dodge or parry.

"Amitabha."

At the critical moment, a Buddhist chant rang out, and a petite figure stood in front of Chen Shi—it was Ruru.

Facing the descending blade, Ru Ru clasped her hands together, her gaze calm as still water, her face showing no fear whatsoever.

Whoosh~

When the halberd struck Ruru, instead of blood splattering, the halberd and the golden-armored general vanished like bubbles in an instant.
