Clang! Clang! Clang...
Upon seeing Guo Jingfei and Chu Batian lead 50,000 Imperial Guards out to fight, the Jiangzhou soldiers all laid down their weapons and knelt down to surrender.
After all, that last strike had completely extinguished the morale of the Jiangzhou soldiers.
Moreover, it wasn't just Jiangzhou Jiedushi Ye Mingyu who was executed; many of the deputy generals and even Ye Mingyu's personal guards in the Jiangzhou army were also killed.
More than a hundred people died under this blade. Who among the remaining Jiangzhou soldiers would dare to resist?
"Someone, go back and report to His Highness that Ye Mingyu, the military governor of Jiangzhou, is dead and the Jiangzhou army rebellion has been quelled!"
Guo Jingfei glanced at Chu Batian and said with a helpless expression.
Chu Batian's expression remained calm. The strike he had just delivered was from Zhenshan Pass. He hadn't even needed the Grand Master of Wanbao Pavilion, Feng Tiansheng, to intervene; he had already dealt with the Yuan Shen Realm elder of Xuantian Sect.
After all, his current cultivation level has reached the peak of the ninth level of the Golden Core Realm.
With the immense power of the Mingwang Zhenshi Jing he cultivated, killing a Xuantian Sect elder was simply a matter of lifting a finger.
"promise!"
One of the Imperial Guards responded, turned his horse around, and headed towards Yanjing City.
An hour later.
The city gate of Yanjing.
"Good news from Dafeng Pass! Yuwen Xiao is dead, and the Jingzhou army rebellion has been quelled..."
"Victory report from Zhenshan Pass! Ye Mingyu is dead! The Jiangzhou army rebellion has been quelled..."
Two Imperial Guardsmen entered Yanjing City almost one after the other, shouting loudly.
The people of Yanjing were stunned when they heard this voice.
Before they had even heard about the rebellion of Yuwen Xiao, the military governor of Jingzhou, and Ye Mingyu, the military governor of Jiangzhou, the two military governors had already been executed and the rebellion quelled.
However, the people of Yanjing soon cheered.
All they knew was that if Yuwen Xiao and Ye Mingyu hadn't died and they had actually managed to break through Dafeng Pass and Zhenshan Pass, then they would have been able to lead their army straight to Yanjing City.
If those two were to attack, it would be ordinary people like them who would suffer.
Two Imperial Guardsmen galloped to the outside of the Ninth Prince's residence, dismounted, and, led by the guards of the Ninth Prince's residence, walked into the residence.
Pavilion.
"Greetings, Your Highness."
Two Imperial Guards soldiers bowed respectfully to Li Jing.
"No need for such formalities."
Li Jing waved his hand and said.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
The two Imperial Guards soldiers expressed their gratitude.
"I already know about the killing of Yuwen Xiao and Ye Mingyu. You can go and rest now."
Li Jing spoke to the two Imperial Guards soldiers.
"yes."
Two Imperial Guards soldiers left, escorted by guards from the Ninth Prince's residence.
Li Jing hesitated for a moment, then said, "Zhao Li."
"This old servant is here."
Zhao Li said respectfully.
"Send men to Dafeng Pass and Zhenshan Pass as quickly as possible to deliver the orders to Dongfang Yao and Guo Jingfei."
"Let them incorporate the Jingzhou Army and Jiangzhou Army, and station them in Jingzhou and Jiangzhou."
Li Jing said in a deep and powerful voice, "We will be stationed at Jingzhou Pass and Jiangzhou Pass to prevent invasion by the Zhao and Qi states."
"This old servant obeys the order."
Zhao Li said with a solemn expression.
"As for Chu Batian, let him return to the capital."
"Minister of Revenue Mu Yunfei and Grand Master of Wanbaoge Feng Tiansheng can also return."
Li Jing said in a deep voice.
"Yes, this old servant will take care of it right away."
Zhao Li responded and then slipped away.
Before long, two guards from the Ninth Prince's residence had already ridden their warhorses to Dafeng Pass and Zhenshan Pass respectively.
Xuantian Sect, Zhenyu Peak.
Inside the main hall, Zhong Zhenyu, the Grand Elder of the Xuantian Sect, sat cross-legged on the ground.
A disciple of the Xuantian Sect rushed in, his face filled with panic, and said, "Reporting to the Grand Elder, the life lamps of both elders have been shattered..."
"Have the life lamps of both elders been shattered?"
Zhong Zhenyu's expression changed slightly, and he opened his eyes and spoke.
The Xuantian Sect disciples lowered their heads and trembled.
"You may leave. I am already aware of this matter!"
Zhong Zhenyu waved his hand and said.
"Yes, disciple takes his leave."
The Xuantian Sect disciples breathed a sigh of relief and quickly withdrew from the Zhenyu Peak main hall.
"As expected, the Holy Son is right. It is simply unrealistic to rely on other methods to deal with the Yan Kingdom."
"The best solution is to ask other sects to join forces to suppress Li Jing, the ninth prince of Yan Kingdom."
"Only in this way can we preserve the foundation of my Xuantian Sect!"
"As long as we can preserve the foundation of our Xuantian Sect, once our Holy Son reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, we will surely be able to revitalize our Xuantian Sect!"
Zhong Zhenyu took a deep breath, slowly stood up, glanced at the Sun Peak of Hua Tianfeng, the Holy Son of Xuantian Sect, and then disappeared into Zhenyu Peak.
He was going to the Giant Sword Sect and the Beast Taming Sect to request their help in suppressing Li Jing, the ninth prince of the Yan Kingdom.
Especially the Giant Sword Sect, although the Giant Sword Sect and the Xuan Tian Sect are both top-tier sects, rather than holy land-level forces.
However, the sect leader of the Giant Sword Sect, the Giant Sword Master, is a peak ninth-level Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, only one step away from the Cave Heaven Realm.
More importantly, the Great Sword Master is a sword cultivator, and his true strength may have already reached the Cave Heaven Realm level!
Although the Beast Taming Sect Master was only at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm, his cultivation level was not much lower than that of Duan Tianmin, the sect master of their Xuantian Sect.
However, the Beast Taming Sect has a guardian beast that is as powerful as a being at the Cave Heaven Realm.
