843: I killed them, so what can you do about it?
“So that’s how it is!”
Xie Weilou smiled and asked no further questions.
Where there are people, there are disputes, especially in places like dynasties.
He himself was a dignitary of the dynasty, so he naturally understood the intricacies.
“Reporting to Lord City Lord, the Barbarian God Clan is less than five li from Beiliang City.”
“Reporting to Lord City Lord, the Barbarian God Clan is less than three li from Beiliang City.”
“…”
Scouts continuously reported.
Chu Jianshi drew her long sword and took a deep breath: “Prepare for battle.”
Xie Weilou said, “Leave these Barbarian God Clan members to me! If you leave the city, it will restrict my ability to act.”
With so many Barbarian God Clan troops, slaughtering them one by one would be time-consuming and laborious. He intended to continue a large-scale slaughter.
Upon hearing this, Chu Jianshi’s face brightened, and she quickly bowed to Xie Weilou: “Thank you, Senior.”
As long as this Senior was willing to act, everything would be fine.
These Barbarian God Clan members were indeed terrifying, but in front of this Senior’s ten thousand souls banner, they were simply insignificant.
She had personally witnessed the terrifying Evil Spirits that emerged from the ten thousand souls banner before. Even a powerful Venerable couldn’t resist and had to leave both arms behind.
Among the Barbarian God Clan, the strongest was at the Dao Seeking Realm, which was merely an ant compared to a Venerable.
A moment later.
The army arrived within one li of the city, a vast, dark mass, already at the city gates. The oppressive feeling was immense, and even the goose-feather snow seemed to stop, not daring to fall.
Man Ji sat on a bronze war chariot. He scanned the city ahead and said coldly, “Who was it that slaughtered my hundred thousand Barbarian God Clan warriors before? Get out here immediately and let this General see you.”
“…”
Xie Buxian looked at Man Ji, his heart filled with anger, yet his face showed no trace of it.
Xie Weilou took a step out, instantly appearing outside the city. He stood with his hands behind his back, looking expressionlessly at Man Ji: “I slaughtered the hundred thousand Barbarian God Clan army. What can you do?”
Man Ji immediately stood up, the four long spears on his back vibrating continuously, flashing with eerie light. His eyes, filled with ferocity, stared at Xie Weilou: “Just a worm, yet you have quite the courage.”
Xie Weilou ignored Man Ji: “Slaughtering you is also no problem at all.”
“Utterly arrogant!”
Man Ji’s eyes were fierce, and the pressure of his mid-Dao Seeking Realm cultivation fully erupted.
The powerful aura instantly crushed towards Xie Weilou, causing the ice and snow in the heavens and earth to melt continuously, its might extremely terrifying.
“…”
Xie Weilou’s eyes showed no ripple.
With his own strength, facing an ordinary Kou Gong was naturally not a big problem, but facing a Dao Seeking Realm expert, that would be difficult.
However, he could use the ten thousand souls banner to first deal with this Dao Seeking Realm expert, and then slaughter the remaining Barbarian God Clan members.
“How can a young man not be arrogant?”
Just as Xie Weilou was about to summon the ten thousand souls banner, a loud laugh rang out. The voice carried terrifying pressure, making the heavens and earth rumble.
Buzz!
In the sky, a bronze warship broke through the air. On the warship, there were over five hundred warriors dressed in golden armor.
Their auras were extremely terrifying; any one of them possessed extremely strong cultivation.
At the front of the warship stood three people.
The first was a burly middle-aged man with a full beard, dressed in a gray robe.
He was two and a half meters tall, carrying a long-handled heavy sword on his back, and emanated a terrifying pressure, full of oppressive power.
A normal long sword was only about three feet long, but the hilt alone of his heavy sword was two feet long, and the blade itself was four feet long.
The second was a woman in a golden dress, wearing half a golden mask, with a purple-gold phoenix hairpin on her head. Her dark hair cascaded to her waist, her figure was graceful, her skin was fair, and she exuded nobility.
Her eyes were peculiar; one was a normal eye, while the other was dark blue.
The third was a man in a black robe. He was dignified, with a majestic face, and exuded an air of nobility.
Xie Weilou had met this third person before; it was none other than the Ninth Prince of the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty, Ye Cangxiao.
“This is… the Central State Iron Cavalry!”
When Chu Jianshi saw the warriors on the bronze warship, she couldn’t help but show a look of pleasant surprise.
The Central State Iron Cavalry was the most powerful cavalry of the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty, controlled by the imperial family. Wherever they went, they were unstoppable, victorious in every battle, and once struck fear into countless enemies.
She then looked at the three people on the warship, a glint flashing in her eyes: “Wu Xiaoying, the Great General under the Marquis of Eight Desolations! And the Third Princess of the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty, Ye Anlan; the Ninth Prince, Ye Cangxiao.”
These three were immensely famous in the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty.
Wu Xiaoying was the Great General under the Marquis of Eight Desolations, extremely powerful, a mighty Creation Realm expert.
The Ninth Prince was at the Guixu Peak, a favored son of the dynasty.
As for the Third Princess, she was an even more extraordinary genius, with talent surpassing Ye Cangxiao. It was rumored that she had already entered the Extreme Guixu Realm, comparable to the Saint Sons and Saintesses of the various great Holy Lands.
This time, these three had actually come. It seemed the Eastern Wasteland Dynasty would not abandon Beiliang City.
Boom!
The bronze warship was extremely fast, appearing instantly ten meters above the city wall.
Ye Cangxiao looked at Xie Weilou, smiled, and clasped his hands: “Fellow Daoist Xie, long time no see!”
“Fellow Daoist Xie? Xie Weilou?”
Ye Anlan’s gaze fell on Xie Weilou, a flicker of surprise in her eyes.
So this was that Xie Weilou?
He was immensely famous, and indeed seemed extraordinary.
Xie Weilou smiled and nodded: “It’s quite peculiar to meet the Ninth Prince here.”
Ye Cangxiao said seriously: “This journey is only for training in Manzhou; it just so happens that we are passing through Beiliang City.”
Wu Xiaoying looked at Xie Weilou and said with a smile: “I am General Wu Xiaoying, a general under the Marquis of Eight Desolations. I have heard of your great name, young man; you are an impressive individual.”
How could he not know Xie Weilou’s great name?
Moreover, this was a young man whom the Marquis of Eight Desolations had specifically asked him to pay attention to.
“Thank you for the compliment!”
Xie Weilou smiled calmly.
Wu Xiaoying glanced at Man Ji and said to Xie Weilou: “This fellow from the Barbarian God Hall is a mid-Dao Seeking Realm cultivator. Let me handle him! It’s been a long time since this General has drawn his sword.”
Xie Weilou thought for a moment: “Alright! But please leave his flesh, blood, and soul.”
Who did the slaughtering wasn’t important, as long as the flesh, blood, and soul remained.
“Good!”
Wu Xiaoying nodded with a smile.
He looked at Ye Cangxiao and Ye Anlan: “This time, I brought you out for training. There are a few Guixu Realm cultivators here. Do you have any thoughts of taking action?”
The so-called training was just one reason; the key was to manage the affairs of Beiliang City.
The Marquis Zhenyu had no intention of dealing with the matters here, but the Marquis of Eight Desolations and the Emperor were determined to fight for every inch of land, so he was sent to lead the Prince and Princess here.
They used the excuse of training to properly manage the affairs here and reinforce the grand array of Beiliang City.
The Marquis Zhenyu was indeed a formidable character. As a subordinate of the Marquis of Eight Desolations, it would be inappropriate for him to presumptuously manage a city under the other’s control.
But he was bringing the Prince and Princess out for training, just passing by, and dealing with the matters here, so there was naturally no problem, and no one dared to say anything.
