Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies
Chapter 112: Decree: Your crime shall be punished

On the city tower, the flag representing Jia City fluttered in the wind.

The people of Qi still wore purple.

The Yang Kingdom revered the red sun as their totem, but since being annexed by the Qi Kingdom, the customs have gradually changed.

Now, the mainstream also regards purple as noble.

There are still a few places that have preserved tradition. Jia City is one of them.

The city flag of Jia City has a red base with carp patterns embroidered on the corners, and in the center, a sun character "Jia" - the only place where Yang Kingdom characters can still be seen is probably on these flags.

Whether willing or unwilling, the official Yang Kingdom has already been promoting the Qi Kingdom's characters.

The fish in Jia City's lake is fresh and delicious, and there is a saying that the carp can transform into a dragon. The carp patterns on the flag not only gather good fortune but also declare the ambition of this city.

From a distance, the red flag looked like fresh blood.

The ancestors of the Xi family did indeed shed blood to establish the foundation of the prosperous Jia City that Jiang Wang saw for the first time.

At this moment, Jiang Wang stood alone outside the inner city gate, with a sword in hand.

But is it Jiang Wang who is besieging the city?

It is the rampant plague.

The invisible, silently spreading...

The visible, suffering and dying...

The plague is like a great army besieging the city.

On the city tower, the lord of Jia City, Xi Munan, stood with his hands behind his back.

The army has surrounded the city, and the sound of the enemy's songs can be heard from all sides.

Today, the sound of war drums...

Who is it that is coming to conquer?

Jiang Wang looked up, "May I ask the lord of the city, is killing you enough to sacrifice the red flag?"

A moment of silence.

Xi Munan came here to see Jiang Wang's attitude. To be precise, he wanted to know the attitude of Jiang Wang's family, the Chongxuan family.

He did not expect Jiang Wang to be so resolute. There was no room for compromise.

But he is still Xi Munan, the lord of Jia City. He was silent for a moment and then pointed down.

Since words are useless, there is no need for words.

At this point, life and death are determined. Xi Munan will not let people underestimate the courage of the Xi family.

The transcendent guards behind him fell like rain, forming a long arrow!

Fifteen transcendent cultivators leaped from the high wall, forming a long arrow.

With two Transcendent Realm cultivators as the arrowhead, four Circulating Realm cultivators as the arrow feathers, and nine Meridian Realm cultivators as the arrow shaft.

In an instant, they accelerated to the extreme, combining all their strength into a huge and sharp arrow!

No matter how small the Yang Kingdom is, it is still a kingdom. No matter how weak Jia City is, it is still a city.

Naturally, there are also military formations and military methods.

The combined strength of the fifteen transcendent cultivators is enough to fight across realms.

In fact, the most terrifying aspect of the military cultivators is their fundamental ability to kill on the battlefield. Among them, the military formation technique is the most well-known.

On the battlefield, there are countless soldiers and tens of thousands of soldiers who form a super military formation, enough to destroy cities and countries, and break through the transcendent with ordinary bodies!

On the battlefield, there are countless transcendent cultivators who have died at the hands of ordinary soldiers.

Therefore, in the eyes of true military cultivators, there is no gap between heaven and man.

The elite team of fifteen transcendent cultivators adopts the military formation technique that has been passed down by the Xi family for many years.

This technique is derived from one of the basic military formations of the military family, the Arrow Formation, and has its own unique features, extremely lethal.

However, even within the Transcendent Realm, there is still a huge gap.

These two Transcendent Realm cultivators are just ordinary experts in the Transcendent Realm.

But Jiang Wang is one of the few who has reached the limit of the Transcendent Realm.

The "arrow" formed by the fifteen transcendent cultivators plunged into a sea of flowers.

The majestic force stirred, the sea of flowers churned, and the flowers withered and bloomed again.

The complex sea of flowers concealed their position, making this "arrow" like a headless fly. They had been on the battlefield for a long time and knew that the more this situation occurred, the more they could not separate, so they became more devoted to the military formation technique, forming a whole.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

That was the fireworks mixed in between, constantly colliding with the "arrow" and constantly exploding.

However, once the arrow stopped, its momentum was exhausted, and its sharpness was dulled.

The end of a strong crossbow cannot pierce Lu Gao.

Jiang Wang slashed out with a sword, traversing the sky, breaking the military formation, dispersing the "arrow," and even cutting through the sea of flowers he had set up!

The fifteen transcendent cultivators dispersed in mid-air, and at this moment, Xi Munan, who was about to launch a joint attack, had just fallen.

Jiang Wang rose from below, and with a horizontal sword in mid-air.

A sword that encompasses mountains, rivers, and stars!

A powerful force that was unstoppable.

Xi Munan was about to be killed here, but was struck back to the city tower by a sword!

Jiang Wang then turned around, and the long sword moved like a flood dragon, flashing like lightning, and swiftly struck left and right.

Fifteen consecutive strikes!

Jiang Wang landed with the sword in hand.

Bang! Bang! Bang...

Fifteen bodies fell in succession!

It was as if a blooming flower enveloped Jiang Wang.

Each body was a petal, and Jiang Wang was like a blooming flower, looking up again and facing Xi Munan.

Flowers filled the sky, covering the entire inner city wall.

The "sea of flowers" opened again.

Today, Jiang Wang is even stronger than when he killed the Pig Bone Face.The Flower Sea, such a fine Daoist technique, only now fully unleashed its might, causing Xi Mumu Nan to lose his bearings for a moment, unsure of where he was.

Atop the city gate tower, Xi Mumu Nan spread his wide sleeves, revealing a seal in his hand, and with a voice booming like a great bell, he decreed: "Let the myriad flowers wither!"

This seal was the City Lord's Seal of Jia City.

Xi Mumu Nan mobilized the entire power of Jia City's domain, issuing the decree. Every action was fortified by the blessings of tens of thousands.

Comparing Yang Nation with Zhuang Nation, setting aside whether their courts were independent or not, just consider the local city domains.

The authority of the lords of the major city domains in Yang Nation was far greater than that of the city lords in Zhuang Nation.

Although both nations were governed by a county-city system, and the local city lords were like enfeoffed nobles, nominally possessing the power of self-governance.

However, in Zhuang Nation, under the overt and covert manipulation of the court, no city domain could have an independent family operating it for more than three generations.

For example, Wei Quji of Fenglin City was already the new generation of enfeoffed lord.

While the Xi family had been in Jia City for several generations, it had essentially become a state within a state.

This situation was not unique in Yang Nation.

This was also why the Xi family was so resistant to the Yang Nation court's interference in the affairs of Jia City, because it related to their vested interests!

And the benefit of such management for the Xi family was that they had successfully bound Jia City and the Xi family together as one.

One specific manifestation of this was the ability to truly mobilize the entire power of Jia City's domain!

Originally, when Wei Quji died in battle at the city lord's mansion, it wasn't that he didn't want to mobilize the power of the city domain, but that he couldn't.

He hadn't managed Fenglin City long enough, and his power was in fact granted by the Zhuang court. However, the Unborn and Undying Formation had cut off his connection with the Zhuang court.

But in Jia City, with Xi Mumu Nan holding the City Lord's Seal of Jia City, the power of the city domain bolstered him, and upon his decree, the flowers began to wither one by one.

Jiang Wang's figure, holding a sword, was clearly imprinted in his eyes.

The Flower Sea was destroyed! And it could not rise again for a short time.

Xi Mumu Nan's face turned ashen, his heart filled with deep hatred, and he decreed again: "Your crime deserves death!"

Boom!

Thunder roared from the ground.

In the clear sky, suddenly a bolt of lightning exploded, instantly approaching Jiang Wang.

Flame flowers bloomed one after another.

In an instant, Jiang Wang released seven flame flowers.

Arranged in a line, they sequentially collided with the thunder.

But not even a moment's time could be delayed, the flame flowers scattered, and the thunder struck down upon him.

Countless vine snakes intertwined, wrapping around Jiang Wang.

【Vine Snake Entwining Wall】.

Upon it, the devouring flowers bloomed, but they perished as soon as they opened.

The entire Vine Snake Entwining Wall also crumbled!

All of this happened so swiftly that the sound of the seven flame flowers exploding and the Vine Snake Entwining Wall collapsing merged together, yet both were overshadowed by the thunder!
