"Our manor is law-abiding and has not committed any illegal acts!" Seeing that Qin Mu remained unmoved, the man with the goatee felt a chill in his heart and said firmly.
"Whether it's illegal or not is not for you to decide! I'll say it again, put down your weapons!" Qin Mu said with a sneer, raising his hand at the same time. Seeing this, the constables behind him raised their crossbows and aimed at the enemy.
"Who dares!" the goatee shouted, and as he spoke, a large group of people appeared in the house behind him, and some archers also appeared on the roof.
"Form ranks!" A loud shout rang out, and the Six Doors side reacted even faster, deploying shields to block their comrades.
"Watch out!" Master Lu and Xi Junmai rushed forward to protect Liu Renshi, while the Bu brothers retreated to Qin Mu's side.
"A bunch of old, weak, sick, and disabled! Since you're tired of living, I'll grant your wish! Kill!" A fierce glint flashed in the goatee's eyes as he gave the order menacingly.
"Hmph!" Qin Mu snorted coldly, and with a flick of his hand, the secret scroll "Deng Youzhou Taige" appeared. Then, the Golden Platform quickly condensed, protecting everyone.
The scroll has a drawback: it cannot be used too frequently, otherwise its power will gradually decrease. However, given its swiftness, Qin Mu used it immediately, mainly to avoid too many casualties among his subordinates.
"Whoosh! Whoosh whoosh!" Arrows crisscrossed in the air.
"Ah! Ahhh!" The resort was not well prepared, and many people collapsed in response.
"Charge out!" shouted the man with the goatee, charging towards Qin Mu with his sword drawn. Not only him, but the others followed suit.
Of course, the Six Doors wouldn't just stand by and watch. As soon as the shields were raised, the constables behind them drew their swords and rushed out.
Inside the manor, the sounds of battle suddenly filled the air as Princess Changning, sword in hand, faced off against the goatee.
"Be careful!" Qin Mu hurriedly warned when he saw that the Bu brothers had been blocked, and then kept an eye on the battlefield.
The garden wasn't small, but once the fight started, it suddenly looked like it was full of people. In the middle, the Bu brothers, Master Lu, Princess Changning, and two others were fighting against the enemy's experts. On the other side, the constables were also fighting the enemy.
More than a hundred people emerged from that room. Qin Mu guessed that there must be a tunnel or basement inside. However, they couldn't get through yet, and didn't know the specifics.
The first volley of crossbow bolts wounded many enemies, but things got tougher afterward. Those enemies were all skilled fighters, agile and strong, and difficult to subdue in a short time. Fortunately, the constables were from the military and worked well together, preventing them from breaking out of the enemy lines.
Seeing that the situation was at a stalemate, Qin Mu was unwilling to wait any longer to avoid any unexpected events. He took a deep breath and began to read aloud.
Qin Mu loved the sight of soldiers appearing out of thin air each time his righteous energy materialized, giving him a sense of being a celestial being. Unfortunately, he couldn't do what he loved most: flying on a sword.
Twice in succession, over a hundred soldiers were conjured up and, under Qin Mu's command, charged into the garden. With these soldiers, the battle situation changed instantly. In particular, these soldiers were fearless of death and felt no pain; even if the bloodthirsty aura resisted, they were easily injured.
With the help of these soldiers, the constables had a much easier time and quickly surrounded and killed the enemy. Once someone was slashed and fell to the ground, someone would put a knife to their wound.
With a loud "bang!", the door of the house in front was smashed open, and a figure leaped into the air. Then, the figure quickly rushed away into the distance. The sudden appearance and rapid speed of this person startled everyone.
Qin Mu was also startled, but fortunately the man rushed outside. The murderous aura he felt earlier vanished in an instant, reminding him of the momentum Qin Qiong and Cheng Zhijie had displayed when they attacked.
Qin Mu wasn't worried about running outside, because Qin Qiong was waiting on the perimeter. He was just worried about enemy experts breaking through.
Sure enough! Just as that person rushed out of the manor, another surge of momentum rose into the sky and chased after him diagonally.
The presence of a skilled enemy made Qin Mu even more vigilant. However, seeing the panicked state of the people in the garden, Qin Mu guessed that was their reliance on their strength. Just as he was about to warn the others, he saw the goatee and his companions force their opponents back with a few swift moves. Imitation, he leaped high into the air and rushed out as well.
Unfortunately, not everyone is a top-tier expert. These people's decision to break through was a mistake. At the very least, if they had continued fighting, Bu Fang and Bu Mang might not have been able to defeat them. They had just leaped into the air when they were met with a barrage of crossbow bolts.
The man from the Six Doors couldn't react in time and had already rushed outside. These people were much slower, and the outer constables had been watching them the whole time.
"Swish! Swish swish!" The crossbow bolts kept shooting at them, leaving them no way to dodge.
Even with abundant bloodlust, being struck by an arrow is still unavoidable. The Six Doors' crossbows are specifically designed to deal with experts; they are powerful and possess the ability to ward off evil. Some of the arrows have even been enhanced by Qin Mu.
This was the work Qin Mu had been preparing for the past three days. After advancing to the Scholar level, he could finally temporarily enchant weapons or equipment. Although this enchantment only lasted for ten days to half a month, it could indeed imbue the equipment with the characteristic of righteous energy.
With Confucian blessing, any Confucian scholar could do it. However, the Confucian scholar's righteous spirit was only enough to bless one sword, not many. The key issue was that the Confucian scholar's righteous spirit was neither of high quality nor high quantity, and the blessing would easily dissipate. Therefore, apart from nurturing their own weapons, no one did anything else that was thankless and exhausting.
With the blessing of a scholar, it will last for ten days to half a month without any problem. In Qin Mu's view, this is like imbuing something with the energy of righteousness; if you don't use it, it will slowly dissipate into the air.
Of course, if Qin Mu wanted to nurture his weapon by using his righteous energy to enhance it every day, over time, this enhancement could last for a very long time.
Qin Mu speculated that the reason why the Great Confucian could permanently enhance the weapon was more like assimilation, that is, turning the weapon into a molecular structure similar to the Righteous Qi. Even though some of the Righteous Qi would dissipate because it belongs to spiritual energy, it wouldn't be too much, because the same molecular structure would also attract free-floating companions in the air.
After the blessing, the formation was added. Qin Mu guessed that this was the reason for the permanent blessing and the undiminished power. Unfortunately, he couldn't do it at the moment. Not to mention weapons, even a piece of Xuan paper, Qin Mu had tried to wrap it with righteous energy and continuously bless it, but he couldn't make the Xuan paper become like righteous energy. Even though the Xuan paper exuded a strong righteous energy, upon careful sensing, he knew that they were two different substances.
Qin Mu had some speculations about this situation. After all, the blessing was simply the infusion of high-level spiritual energy into weapons and equipment. The fact that it couldn't be done at the moment could only mean that the righteous spirit of a great Confucian scholar was fundamentally different from that of Confucian cultivators below the level of a great Confucian scholar.
