I only seek to enjoy the present moment, regardless of dying in a foreign land tomorrow. With a blade in hand, I'll slay demons and men alike. "Ladies and gentlemen, please be on your way!&...
771 Observing the world with a detached eye, untouched by any worldly concerns!
He paused, his gaze seemingly piercing through space to see the more distant northern region, the very place General Yun had just wanted to govern. A hint of hesitation crossed his face.
"Yes, boss." Another guard quickly replied, a greedy, wicked smile spreading across his face, as he whispered closer, as if offering a treasure.
"That kid, Little Stone, is always daydreaming about bringing his family here to enjoy a life of luxury. He doesn't even know his own limitations."
He's quite the smooth talker, but unfortunately, the world doesn't always go his way.
However, his two younger sisters are quite pretty and of the right age.
Why don't we sell them to that old devil Wang Sanque? We can get some money in return, wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?
Once we get to Wang Sanque's place, there will definitely be no hidden dangers!
Moon Seal Guard shook his head slightly and said in a low, resolute voice, "Resolve this quickly to avoid future troubles. Otherwise, if Steward Bai blames us, neither of us can bear the responsibility!"
We will both be plunged into an abyss of no return.
"Yes, yes, boss, I was wrong. Thank you for reminding me!" A cold sweat broke out and quickly poured down his forehead, soaking his back.
The two Moon Seal Guardians hurried towards the northern district of the royal city. As they approached the dividing line, their road was suddenly blocked by two groups of soldiers who were on high alert.
Each of the two teams consisted of a hundred men, armed with spears, bows and arrows, and shields. Their imposing presence and fierce aura soared into the sky, while invisible flying blades blocked their path, forming an impenetrable wall of steel between the two sides.
On the border, many with ulterior motives were frightened into stopping in their tracks, and the bloodstains on the ground silently testified to the failure and tragedy of the challengers.
A chilling atmosphere suddenly swept over them, and the two Moon Seal Guards looked solemn.
"Boss, let's go back. There are soldiers blocking our way, we..." Yueyin's younger brother looked a little scared. These soldiers looked a bit old, but their murderous aura was terrifying.
"Let's go, let's change direction!" Guard Moon Seal shook his head slightly, thinking of Butler Bai's ruthless actions, and made a decisive decision!
The two quickly turned onto another street, intending to avoid the obstacle in front of them. And it seems their idea was not unique; many others shared the same thought.
Stepping onto another street, the scene before me was chilling. A figure, as swift as a flying squirrel, was attempting to slip through the gaps in the shadows on either side.
But in that instant, a dozen arrows streaked across the night sky like meteors, striking the man with pinpoint accuracy.
A scream shattered the silence, and the person instantly fell to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the spearmen charged forward like wolves and tigers, piercing the man's chest with a single thrust and shattering his head with another, leaving no room for escape!
In the blink of an eye, their perfect coordination sent chills down the spines of those who had just arrived.
The Moon Seal Guardian's eyes suddenly turned cold as he witnessed the soldiers' deadly, swift, and decisive movements. Piercing the chest and then smashing the skull—the technique was precise and left no room for further complications!
The sheer killing intent was palpable; the combat in the army was truly formidable, and their seamless teamwork was remarkable. The Moon Seal Guardian thought to himself, 'These soldiers are no ordinary people; they must be the elite of the elite.'
Such precautions must be to prevent demonic possession, leaving no hidden danger!
The henchman beside him witnessed the terrifying scene just now, and his limbs were so weak that he could barely stand.
His eyes were filled with horror. Seeing such clean, efficient, and ruthless tactics, his mouth gaped open for a long time, and he whispered in a trembling voice, "Boss... Boss, we... we should go back! It's too dangerous here!"
We can go another day; they certainly won't be able to escape anyway.
The Moon Seal Guardian nodded slowly, his expression flickering, but his feet involuntarily took a few steps back!
White Snake slowly recounted the many changes in the city, such as the princes waiting impatiently behind them, and even the Holy Emperor's concubine going to the palace but not being able to enter. However, Elder Yun's breakthrough to Martial Emperor had a great impact on the city.
Despite trying her best to hide her thoughts, she couldn't conceal them no matter what.
Now that the dragon energy has escaped, it will not be easy to gather a large amount of dragon energy again, and the White Snake knows that it may not be able to wait that long.
Emperor Qianwu and Emperor Wanwu nodded slightly, and some things became clear to them.
Emperor Wanwu looked at the respectful white snake before him with a hint of regret and reluctance in his eyes, as if he had lost a docile treasure, and his heartache was beyond words.
Suddenly, a giant sword, nine feet long and three feet wide, was drawn from the spatial ring. Its sound was like ten thousand dragon roars and tiger howls intertwined, resounding through the sky, and the surrounding space trembled violently.
The blade flashed like the moon, sharp and swift, rising into the air in an instant, as if slicing through the night sky.
With a single slash, as fast as moonlight, the White Snake had barely sensed the chill of the blade when it was pierced by a hundred beams of light. In an instant, its body was sliced into a hundred pieces, a bloody mess from the inside out, turning into a puddle of mud!
The speed of his knife skills was astonishing.
In the blink of an eye, red blood splattered like a torrent, staining the surrounding air red, and the area was shrouded in a hazy red mist.
Emperor Wanwu and Emperor Qianwu automatically released their protective qi, seemingly impervious to heat and cold, as if an invisible shield tightly enveloped them, not only keeping out the splattered blood but also repelling all the surrounding dust!
Within a three-foot radius, untouched by the dust of the world, the room is a pure and immaculate sanctuary, isolated from the outside world.
Observing the world with a detached eye, untouched by any worldly concerns!
Emperor Wanwu waved his hand lightly, and in the blink of an eye, the white snake was swept away like dust!
Emperor Qianwu didn't care at all; he seemed indifferent to the life or death of the white-haired old man before him.
Although Emperor Qianwu didn't care, Emperor Wanwu gently explained, "Brother Qian must have heard of the White Snake Child. The sect was destroyed by the Holy Emperor, and the White Snake Child is willing to abandon darkness and join me."
I have worked diligently all these years, and I promised to share some of its dragon energy to nourish and prolong its life when it declines!
But it seems he can't wait any longer!
If someone has two minds, they naturally cannot stay.
As if hinting at something, Emperor Qianwu nodded slowly.
It's timeless and unbreakable; I can give it to you freely, but you can't accept it!
Emperor Qianwu's expression showed great agreement!
Emperor Wanwu said softly, "Now that General Yun has broken through in the royal city, it is a good thing for us."
But General Yun's actions differ from ours. He has always been known for his strong and unyielding character; aside from the Holy Emperor, it's unlikely anyone else could gain his trust. This is precisely why the First Prince harbored resentment towards him, leading the prince to take such a risk.
Emperor Qianwu nodded slowly, agreeing, "If the Holy Emperor hadn't traveled, this matter wouldn't have changed much..."
