Chapter 149: Chapter 140: Chen Yuan, Even the Government Administrative Office Can’t Save You (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2

The opponent’s face froze, "I didn’t expect the Sky Patrol Department to act so quickly, the troops are still on their way, perhaps Lord Wan should wait..."

Before he could finish, Wan Tianming furrowed his eyebrow, flicked his sleeve, and shoved the man aside.

"How can I, Wan Tianming, be a shrinking turtle? How would my Washing Sword Pavilion establish a foothold at Tianxiong Pass in the future?"

Having said that, the Pavilion Master of Washing Sword Pavilion soared into the sky, flying out of the hall, followed by a resounding call.

"Sword Pavilion Disciples, heed my command!"

"Follow your Pavilion Master, descend the mountain and slay our enemies."

Then, turning into a streak of piercing sword light, he shot towards the bottom of the mountain.

Right after, from the lofts and cave residences around the Sword Washing Pool, cries rang out, as streaks of sword light, like meteors chasing the moon, turned into a fine and lengthy sword rain, tearing through the night sky, in pursuit.

At the mountain gate of Washing Sword Pavilion on the mountainside, the Leading Military Officer looked up into the grey-blue night, at the streaks of sword light descending from the sky, his eyes sparkling with a gleaming brilliance.

Next, the long saber in his hand "schinged" as he drew it and cleaved toward the mountain gate in front.

Sword Qi ripped through the air, growing as it met the wind, hurtling towards those three brushstroke-like characters.

"Boom!"

The mountain gate collapsed thunderously.

"Haha!"

The Leading Military Officer laughed wildly, "Let’s go!"

Immediately after, he braced himself, the horse neighed long, turned its head, and galloped down the mountain.

The other soldiers in armor also swiftly followed suit, moving on.

In the distance, an exasperated and furious roar was heard.

"Ninth Mountain."

"You all truly deserve death."

"Where do you think you’re going!"

In the midst of the meteor-like Sword Qi, one particular sword light, the most robust of all, its brightness surging, emitted a piercing whizzing sound as it broke away and chased after the retreating troops of the Ninth Mountain Army.

Soon, in a chase and escape, they left the area protected by Washing Sword Mountain’s Mountain Protection Array, reaching the foot of Mount Washing Sword. Just as he almost caught up, ready to strike in fury, two thunderous booms rolled through the vast skies.

All of a sudden, a golden Vajra Umbrella, brilliantly yellow, sprang up from the woods beneath him, and covered him.

Then, a silver long saber rose from the other side, growing to a length of five or six zhang, sweeping across the sky, striking mightily towards Wan Tianming.

The sword light that Wan Tianming turned into stopped suddenly, his face a mix of shock and anger,

"Two Colonels of the Fourth Heavenly Barrier!"

His thoughts racing, he drew a circle in the void with one hand, and streaks of sword light, each a zhang long, gathered in front of him. Then, with a loud roar, the sword light whizzed away, meeting the attack from both sides.

At this moment, the Ninth Mountain Army, which had been fleeing downhill, seeing their plan working, let out a quick cry, turned their horses around and charged back up the mountain.

The Mountain-cutting Banners behind them flew out with a whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, following the thundering hooves intercepting the Sword Pavilion Disciples rushing down from above.

"Zing"

"Zing"

"Sching"

Sounds of swords being drawn echoed.

Streaks of cold light bloomed in the night shrouded mountains and forest.

"Kill!"

At this time, over Washing Sword Pavilion, Vice Minister Wu, seeing this scene, his face twitched uncontrollably, his eyebrows and eyes twisted.

"Idiots, I told you it was a trap set by the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel."

"Damn it, just a bit longer and my plan would have been half complete."

He was thoroughly fed up with this Master of the Washing Sword Pavilion, whose sword cultivation seemed to have addled his brain—unable to see through such an obvious provocation, even after being warned of the danger. He refused to listen. If they had only relied on the foundation of Washing Sword Pavilion and held their ground with the Mountain Protection Array, even with an army pressing in, it would be difficult to breach in a short time.

Vice Minister Wu’s face was unsettled, his eyes fixed on Wan Tianming, who was fighting desperately against the two Colonels, hesitating whether to join the fray.

But the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel was nowhere to be seen!

At this moment, the image of Xiahou Yuan being audaciously beheaded by Chen Yuan haunted his mind.

"Wan Tianming, since you’ve chosen to be foolish, you can’t blame me!"

........

Night had fallen outside the Inner City.

The area, usually bustling with bright lights and visitors at night, featuring brothels, tile houses, and flower-lined streets,

was now filled with the sound of doors being shut, "clack clack clack".

Eyes stared at the wide-open city gates of the Inner City, where chilling iron-armored soldiers shouted and galloped down the streets, quickly disappearing into the distance.

In the night, figures leaped up and down along the streets, scouting around.

"Report, the Inner City Patrol Sky Department’s east, west, and north gates are wide open, the troops pouring out, marching swiftly in three directions!"

"Keep scouting!"

"Seems like something big is going to happen tonight!"

"This matter should be related to the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel; have you found out anything about this person’s background."

"No, not yet."

"Go investigate, what exactly has happened?"

"....."

For a moment, the clouds in all four directions were stirred.

The entire Tianxiong Pass was like a deep pool filled with all sorts of fish and dragons. The complexities that were hidden beneath the surface were far more intricate than those revealed.

In the dark night, pairs of obscure eyes were watching from afar, as the grim ironclads gradually receded down the streets.

"Giddy up"

"Giddy up"

"Giddy up"

A group of troops spurred their horses under the cover of night; not too far away, a large estate was ablaze with flames reaching the skies, filled with sounds of fierce combat, cries and screams of people fleeing in all directions, with figures scaling walls or breaking through doors frantically escaping.

"Order: Lockdown the Li Residence, no one is allowed to enter or leave, anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!"

A cold shout bellowed.

Then, the dense mass of troops behind split into two, rapidly surrounding the estate.

Just at this moment, a scream tore through the sky.

A green figure plummeted from the sky, crashing directly into the heart of the Li Mansion, while in the sky above, two hammers flickering with silver lightning were controlled by a flung sleeve before being retracted into it.

Following that, up above the sky, a golden silhouette opened its eyes fiercely, shooting out two beams of golden light that thunderously fell, plowing into a deep crater.

In the blink of an eye, the golden silhouette reached the edge of the crater scorched into barren ground, looking at the person in a green robe who had their lower body obliterated, with only the upper body intact.

This person was none other than Yuan Lie, a house servant of the Central Plains Li family.

At this moment, having been crippled by Chen Yuan, his face distorted in pain, ghastly white in color, as he saw Chen Yuan approaching, the arrogance he initially displayed towards Chen Yuan remained, clenching his teeth tightly, he drew a token from his bosom and yelled with all his might.

"Chen Yuan, my master is a third-ranked government officer Sima of the current court, and the Li family is a branch of the bloodline. You are just a Colonel, how dare you commit such slaughter recklessly, stop this at once."

Chen Yuan’s gaze fell upon the token, pausing his footsteps.

Seeing his reaction, Yuan Lie thought it was working, about to speak further.

The next second, the figure vanished from the spot, and then, he saw his own body falling, followed by a dizzying spin, rolling noisily.

Immediately after, a foot stomped on his head, pinning it down.

His consciousness utterly dissipated.

Chen Yuan looked down, observing the mangled corpse

"I would actually like to ask, what year is it tonight?"

Then, he swept his sleeve towards the still intact upper body of the person, a few items flew out, all collected into his sleeve, and with a flick of his hand, a strand of Golden Core True Fire flew out, incinerating the remains to ashes.

Having completed all this, Chen Yuan looked up, turned towards another location, suddenly rising into the sky, entering the collapsing Mountain Conquest Formation.

The Main General entered the Array Flag, the Mountain Conquest Formation that had been almost wiped out by the Golden Mountain, instantly emitted a buzzing sound, and the golden light surged vigorously.

The Li Family Master, trapped in the formation and seeing the house servant sent by the family head unable to last even ten exchanges under the hands of the Ninth Mountain’s Colonel, couldn’t help but be shocked, felt an inward panic, and bellowed:

"Chen Yuan, by killing a house servant of the Li family’s main branch, this matter will not end well."

"Stop now while you still can, there is still room for maneuver, otherwise, even the Jiannan Road Fusi cannot protect you!"

Chen Yuan couldn’t be bothered to listen to such nonsense, his hands opened, and the Three-pointed Two-blade Spear appeared in his grasp, issuing an excited clang.

The bloodstain on the spearhead deepened a shade!

He lunged with the spear.

Li Wanhai, seeing the situation, quickly turned the Taoist Soldier Scarlet Gold Gourd to face it, no longer holding onto any hope, his face twisted hideously, uttering hatefully:

"Fine, fine, fine, I have already sent a flying message; very soon the news here will reach the Washing Sword Pavilion and Vajra Sect. When the two of them arrive, let’s see how you end it."

At that moment, Chen Yuan fiercely parried the Scarlet Gold Gourd with his spear, then leaped into the air, striking down with a ferocious laugh with his spear.

"Sorry, but those two probably won’t make it!"

"What?" Li Wanhai felt like he had been struck by lightning.

In that moment of distraction, Chen Yuan’s spear suddenly lengthened, the spear tip extending.

"Boom"

The spear pierced straight through this person’s body.

Then, with a twist of the spearhead, a raging True Fire erupted, engulfing the Li Family Master’s whole body.

After which, an explosion.

Chen Yuan withdrew his spear, then the three Mountain-cutting Banners, vibrating with a hum, transformed into a rustling wind sound, flying behind him.

Next, he sent a command below.

"Annihilate the Li family. Nobody is to enter or exit until I return."

"Yes!"

The next second, Chen Yuan spotted a direction and turned into a golden light, speeding away.
