Just as the sentries on the outskirts were about to light the signal fire, several sharp arrows pierced their bodies, and they were thrown several steps away by the inertia.

Before the disciples on guard could understand what was happening, they were greeted by a hail of arrows.

When the sect's experts had all gathered and were marching menacingly outside, they discovered that the outer defenses of the headquarters had been completely breached, and countless cavalrymen had broken through their fences.

As soon as dozens of experts showed themselves, they were met with a barrage of arrows, and a few unlucky ones who couldn't dodge in time were instantly turned into hedgehogs.

The cult leader also realized that the other party was by no means a reputable sect!

"The imperial army!!"

"How could this be! What are the imperial army doing here!"

Some people were terrified.

Only the leader, after a brief moment of doubt, remained fearless: "What's there to be afraid of! A bunch of chickens and dogs! It's just the right time to test my Seven Kill Sword Technique!" Seeing the leader pick up the sword, the others followed suit.

Given their current situation, this is the only path they can take.

However, the enemy continued to fire arrows, which made the group of demonic sect experts panic. They could only look for cover while using their weapons to defend themselves. Seeing many sect members fall to the ground, the sect leader's killing intent reached its peak. Just as the rain of arrows stopped, he took the lead and rushed forward, using his lightness skill to quickly approach.

He had also studied military strategy and understood the principle of capturing the leader first.

The man in the very center of the enemy force must be the leader. Once I kill him with one strike, things will be much simpler afterward.

Sword-sweeping stance! Sword-thrusting stance!

He grinned maliciously. "Didn't expect that, did you? You battlefield warriors are nothing compared to someone like me... huh?"

The fierce-looking man looked at him with suspicion, and the scene fell silent.

That's it?

His prized Seven Kill Sword only managed to leave a few white marks on the opponent's armor.

"All troops, listen to my command! Leave no rebel alive!" the man shouted. The soldiers holding bows retreated, and the fully armored soldiers, led by the man, began to advance.

The cult leader wanted to resist, but several spears suddenly thrust out from behind the armored soldiers in front of him, and he quickly retreated to avoid the attack.

Immediately afterwards, spears thrust out from all sides, quickly trapping him in their midst.

The other experts in the sect also had a hard time. They originally thought the enemy would be easy to deal with, but they did not expect that these soldiers were all fearless and coordinated with each other. If they were not careful, someone would be stabbed through the chest and fall to the ground screaming.

"Damn it! You actually want to capture me alive!" The cult leader unleashed his power, forcefully breaking free from the dozen or so spears that were holding him. With a light tap of his foot, he flew into the air.

Looking at the ordinary people below, the cult leader said with disdain, "A bunch of... huh?"

He saw these people pull out crossbows from their waists.

At that moment, the cult leader felt time freeze around him. He wanted to dodge, but he couldn't find any leverage in the air.

Seeing the expert fall to the ground riddled with dozens of arrows, Huang Chao stepped forward and slapped him on the head.
