Chapter 688
'Whoosh! '
'boom……'
Above the bustling streets of the capital, cloud-piercing bombs carrying signals were heard.
In response, the shocked citizens of the city subconsciously stood on both sides of the official road.
Even the vendors moved their stalls into the alleys.
"What happened?"
"Why did so many cloud-piercing bullets suddenly appear?"
'Hush! '
"Don't you know yet?"
"The Crown Prince and Princess of Beiliang were attacked in Jiaoling. Lord Xu, you have been ordered to personally investigate the case."
"This must be what we found out."
"The City Defense Battalion and the Patrol Battalion will work together to clear the roads. This will provide the greatest convenience for Lord Xu and the Embroidered Uniform Guards."
"Ah? The Prince and Princess of Beiliang dared to assassinate? Who is so bold?"
Just as the people were discussing the matter, a scout with a flag on his head took the lead and galloped towards the heart of the capital.
"Towards Zhengyang Street!"
"Lord Xu led his troops into the city through the north gate and headed straight to Zhengyang Street."
"People and vendors along the street, please get out of the way!"
As his voice rang out, the two avenues in front of the north gate were quickly cleared by the soldiers of the city defense camp.
The remaining three roads connecting to Zhengyang Street were checked by Deng Ziyue, who quickly left the camp and led his troops.
In an instant, hundreds of soldiers stood on both sides of the streets with swords in hand.
They stood in a jumbled formation, one group facing the onlookers and the common people, to prevent any bad guys from causing trouble, while the other group stood with their heads held high and chests puffed out, as if welcoming the capital's half-day inspection.
"Zhengyang Street?"
"Those are the villas of the nobles and dignitaries."
"Wait, has Prince Ning moved to Zhengyang Street now?"
"Could it be that Lord Xu is going after Prince Ning again this time?"
'Pah-ta-ta.'
Just as the people were talking about it, the harsh sound of horse hooves came from far away and reached their ears.
When he looked in the direction of the sound, the flying fish flag fluttering in the wind first caught his eye, and then Xu Shan's bright red clothes stood out among the many Jinyiwei.
But what really shocked the onlookers at the scene were the people being pulled behind the Jinyiwei's mounts!
Disheveled, bloody and mangled.
The bloodstains left behind after passing by are even more horrifying!
"He, they are..."
"That man with the broken arm being pulled seems to be Zuo Lengchan, the leader of the Songshan Sect, one of the Five Great Sword Sects."
"Yes, it's him!"
'boom.'
When someone recognized Zuo Lengchan and said this, there was an uproar on both sides of the street.
Zuo Lengchan?
He is a master of the Heavenly Punishment level.
But now?
Like a dead dog, he was dragged to the ground.
Is this a violation of the heavenly law?
"Not only the Left Sect Leader, but also several elders of the Songshan Sect are pulling back."
"The Songshan Sect was wiped out in one fell swoop?"
Such exclamations echoed throughout the street.
There is Kongtong Mountain in front and Songshan Mountain behind...
The endings were all very similar, and the root cause was that they had offended someone they shouldn't have offended—Beijing, Xu Bantian!
For the onlookers and the wanderers, such a scene made them feel inexplicably terrified.
But for the city defense battalion and the patrol battalion, it is a sincere honor.
The Lord Xu whom he followed started to make trouble again.
It looks like he's holding it in for a big one.
The more they thought about it, the more excited they became, and they all held their heads high and chests puffed out.
His eyes followed the tall crimson figure and moved horizontally.
"Brothers, thank you for your hard work."
Xu Shan, who was riding past on horseback, did not forget to express his gratitude.
As soon as he finished speaking, a deafening resonance echoed throughout the street.
"Swear allegiance to Master Xu until death!"
When they heard this, everyone's scalp felt numb.
"Thank you all, brothers, for showing me the way forward."
In the next block, Mr. Xu, who was on a flat ground, screamed again.
"I'm here in the capital, Lord Xu, please go ahead with confidence!"
The unanimous response made everyone present excited!
What is cohesion?
What does it mean to get a hundred responses from one call?
What does half-hand covering the sky mean?
At this moment, Xu Shan gave the correct answer!
