The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chapter 377 Blood Payback (Please subscribe, please bookmark, please vote for the monthly ticket)

Daxuan Capital City.

Inside the huge city, under the cover of night, a darkness even thicker than the night itself is rapidly flowing.

Torches were everywhere, like a spark that could start a prairie fire.

All the wealthy families shut their doors tightly, and all the pedestrians on the street retreated into their homes, with only the brave ones still peeking out through the cracks in the doors.

Neatly-lined brocade and black shirts flitted through the streets, and a cold murderous aura swept across the entire capital.

"Your Majesty, would you like to issue an order..."

A eunuch stood hunched behind Emperor Xuan and spoke weakly.

With such a big commotion, how could the palace not get the news?

Emperor Xuan stood on the tallest observatory in the imperial palace and had a clear view of the scene in the capital.

"What does the decree say? To stop the Taiping Division from seeking revenge?"

Emperor Xuan said calmly, "In the capital of Great Xuan, the commander of the Taiping Division was killed. In what position do you want me to stop the Taiping Division?"

"But the Taiping Division's actions are too much."

The eunuch said weakly.

"Do you think they will listen to my orders?"

Emperor Xuan sneered, "Instead of asking for trouble, it's better to let them vent their anger.

These aristocratic families are indeed going too far."

The eunuch sighed and said, the capital city would probably be flooded with blood.

The same goes for those aristocratic families. Why do they have to force those murderous guys from the Taiping Division to this extent?
…………

In the light of the fire, neatly-dressed people in brocade and black robes surrounded a mansion.

Before the servants could close the door, they were kicked down.

Then they stared blankly at a group of people in brocade and black robes rushing in.

"Search! Anyone who resists will be killed!"

The roar echoed in the air.

Soon there were sounds of weapons clashing, screams, and blood splattering.

This scene was played out in various places in the capital.

Ever since the incident at the Supervisory Office, the Taiping Office has once again shown its fangs.

If it is said that various forces had previously forced the Taiping Division to decentralize power and set up the so-called Supervisory Division, then this had not yet touched the bottom line of the Taiping Division.

This time, the deaths of two Nascent Soul commanders and dozens of others have completely touched the Taiping Division's reverse scale.

The Taiping Division slays demons and eliminates evil. They can die, but they must not die in vain.

As the commander, Su Mu also led a team of people, responsible for checking a street.

Anyone who is related to this matter and anyone who colludes with the Pure Land Sect must be investigated.

Standing at the street entrance, a large group of people in brocade and black robes had already poured into the long street, blocking the entire street.

"Sir, Xuanwu Street has been blocked, please give the order."

Shi Binbin came in front of Su Mu and said in a deep voice.

He was assigned to work under Su Mu, responsible for assisting Su Mu in his operations.

"Investigate every household, don't kill a good person by mistake, and don't let a bad person go."

Su Mu placed his palm on the hilt of the knife, his expression calm, and spoke slowly.

"Yes!"

Shi Binbin obeyed the order loudly.

"Su Mu, do you feel something is wrong?"

Dongfang Liuyun followed Su Mu and whispered.

He has broken through to the Jindan realm, but currently he is still the pacification envoy. He and Mo Xuesong are both Su Mu's subordinates, so they are naturally grouped together with Su Mu.

At this moment, he and Mo Xuesong were following Su Mu on the left and right, like two guards.

"Let's not talk about whether Hou Wuque has the ability to kill the two commanders. Even if he did, he could have killed them. Why did he leave a letter to provoke the Taiping Division?"

Eastern Flowing Clouds.

"Someone did this on purpose."

Su Mu said calmly, "Someone is trying to sow discord between the Taiping Division and the Pure Land Sect. They want to use the Taiping Division as a knife."

"Since you've thought of it, why do you still--"

Dongfang Liuyun frowned.

"If you can think of it, I can think of it too. Do you think the elderly people in your family can't think of it?"

Su Mu said, "Even if you know it's a provocation, so what?

Dozens of colleagues died in the battle, and this revenge must be avenged.

The Pure Land Sect is the mortal enemy of the Taiping Division. Regardless of whether they did this or not, it would be right to take this opportunity to uproot the Pure Land Sect."

“The waters in the capital are too deep. If we don’t do this, it will be almost impossible to find the murderer.

Only when these people see that we, the Taiping Division, are not afraid of overturning the table, will they be afraid of us, the Taiping Division. "

Su Mu said in a deep voice.

suddenly.

There were shouting sounds coming from deep in the long street.

"You are so brave!"

"How dare you trespass into my mansion without any evidence!"

"I'm putting my words here. If anyone dares to come forward again, don't blame me for being rude!"

clank!

The sound of bows and arrows being strung echoed in the night sky.

Su Mu frowned slightly.

Is there really someone who is not afraid of death and dares to obstruct the Taiping Division?
He took a step forward and walked deeper into the long street.

The night wind was bleak, blowing Su Mu's clothes, and the seven cloud patterns sparkled.

Everyone in the Taiping Division made way, stood straighter, and tried hard to leave a good impression in front of Su Mu.

The Taiping Division has the youngest Jindan realm master in the world, and is also the youngest commander with seven special achievements. He is a living legend.

Su Mu walked calmly to the front of the team and stopped in front of the steps.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the angry knife-wielding figure on the steps.

"General Tan."

Su Mu looked calm.

Tan Shulang stood at the end of the stairs, his face filled with anger that became even more intense after seeing Su Mu.

The arms of the dozens of bow-wielding soldiers behind him were trembling slightly.

Su Mu's legend is not limited to the Taiping Division.

Looking at Daxuan, he is also a legend.

People who do not practice martial arts are like a frog in a well looking at the moon.

To those who practice martial arts, he is like an ant looking at the sky.

Faced with such a legend, the elite soldiers of the Shenwu Army didn't even dare to draw their bows.

"Ten breaths."

"Get out of the way, otherwise, there will be no Tan family in Daxuan anymore."

Swish!Swish!Swish!
As soon as Su Mu finished speaking, Shi Binbin, Dongfang Liuyun, Mo Xuesong, and hundreds of Taiping captains all drew their swords at their waists.

The bright snow-white blade reflected the firelight, shining brightly as one.

The cold murderous intent instantly enveloped the entire long street.

The soldiers of the Shenwu Army looked pale and their bodies were trembling slightly.

Swish!
One soldier was frightened and loosened his fingers, and the arrow flew straight towards the young man in the firelight.

Tan Shulan's heart skipped a beat, and then his whole heart sank.

Snapped!
Su Mu raised his hand and grabbed the arrow.

"You are so brave to attack and kill the commander of the Taiping Division, General Tan!"

Su Mu said calmly. "Su Mu, don't take revenge on someone else!"

Tan Shulang subconsciously took a step back and shouted, "Don't try to frame me. I am a general of the Shenwu Army. When did I ever attack and kill the commander of the Taiping Division?"

"With so many eyes watching you, you still want to quibble?"

Su Mu said coldly, "Catch him for me. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy."

Su Mu slowly drew out the Blood Drinking Knife and pointed the blade at Tan Shulan.

At that time, Tan Shulan was not his match in one move, but now, if he wanted to kill Tan Shulan, one sword would be enough.

"Young man, don't be so irritable."

At this moment, an old voice suddenly came, "When I was on the battlefield, you were not even born yet."

Along with the sound, an old man in full armor walked slowly out of the mansion.

He held a long-handled Guandao that was more than a person's height. With every step he took, the handle of the sword would tap the ground, making a low sound.

He didn't stop until he reached Tan Shulan. He stood on the steps and looked down at everyone in the Taiping Division.

"My Tan family has fought for Daxuan all our lives. Even your Lord Taiping would have to call me old general when he sees me."

The old man looked at Su Mu and the others with sharp eyes, and said coldly, "If you want to enter the gate of my Tan family, you have to ask my knife whether it agrees!"

Su Mu turned his head and glanced at Shi Binbin.

"Tan Zhishan was a second-rank general before he retired."

Shi Binbin understood and whispered, "His cultivation is not very high, he is at the high stage of Jindan, but he has countless old friends in the army..."

His cultivation level is not high, but that is only relative to his rank.

In fact, the high level of Jindan is almost the ceiling for ordinary warriors.

There may not be one warrior among a million who can achieve Nascent Soul.

Apart from anything else, the cultivation level of all the people from the Taiping Division present now is not as good as that of Tan Zhishan.

Su Mu nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

His eyes fell on Tan Zhishan, and he said slowly, “Old General, you fight for the country, Su admires you.

But today, the Taiping Division is tracking down the murderer, and I must go through this door.

If the old general had no regrets, why would he stop us?"

"Boy, if you want to talk to me, you are not qualified."

Tan Zhishan said coldly, "If you want to search my Tan family, let your Lordship come. You are not worthy!"

hum!
He suddenly stopped his arm, the blade of the Guandao trembled, and a crack appeared on the ground under the handle.

The cracks spread all the way to Su Mu's feet, and the ground shook.

Everyone's expressions changed slightly.

Su Mu looked calm as he looked at Tan Zhishan.

"Old General, haven't you heard that the Yangtze River's waves behind push forward the waves ahead?"

Su Mu said slowly, "If you don't get out of the way, don't blame me for bullying you, the old and weak."

"Ha ha!"

Tan Zhishan laughed loudly, "Arrogant boy, if you dare to step onto the stairs, I will kill you!"

"Su Mu, go back and ask for help. Only the old guy can deal with the old guy."

Shi Binbin whispered.

Su Mu took a step forward without even turning his head, expressionless.

This step has already reached the steps in front of the Tan family's door.

Tan Zhishan's face darkened and he snorted coldly.

Swish!
He swung the Guandao in his hand down without hesitation.

boom!
The power of a high-level Jindan realm exploded, and in an instant, Tan Zhishan's hair and beard flew, and even the armor on his body rattled.

As he chopped with his sword, the shadow of a mountain appeared faintly above the blade.

Vision, Genshan!
The knife hasn't fallen yet, but the oppressive feeling of a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting has already hit me.

Shi Binbin had difficulty breathing and subconsciously stepped back.

Dongfang Liuyun and Mo Xuesong tried their best to hold on, but their faces turned a little ugly.

The gap between the high-level Jindan realm and the initial-level Jindan realm is extremely large, even greater than the gap between the Jindan realm and the Zhenyuan realm.

The two men imagined that if they were to face Tan Zhishan's attack head-on, they would probably have no choice but to retreat and avoid it.

Even if they stepped back to avoid the attack, they were not absolutely sure that they could dodge the attack.

Tan Zhishan looked at the old man, but as soon as he made a move, his strength as a high-level Jindan realm was undoubtedly revealed. Moreover, he had fought on the battlefield all his life, and the murderous aura on his body was like substance. As was the custom on the battlefield, he would show no mercy when he made a move, and all his strength would burst out.

"Help!"

Shi Binbin shouted loudly, and with a flip of his wrist, two more mysterious weapons appeared in his hand. He called out to everyone and was about to go forward to help Su Mu.

But he was stopped by Dongfang Liuyun.

“Don’t worry, the old guy can’t hurt Su Mu!”

Dongfang Liuyun said in a deep voice.

Shi Binbin stopped and frowned. He turned his head to look at Luo Anning.

Luo Anning had a calm face, without any sign of worry.

Shi Binbin began to murmur in his heart. If anyone knew Su Mu, it must be his woman who knew him best. Luo Anning was not worried at all. Could it be that Su Mu already had the strength to fight against a high-level Jindan realm cultivator?

is it possible?

It is definitely impossible for ordinary people, but Su Mu——

Shi Binbin felt unsure. Su Mu was too abnormal. It was no surprise that he could do anything.

He can forge mysterious weapons, so is there anything he can't do?

It's too late, but it's soon.

I saw that Tan Zhishan’s full-strength attack had already landed.

Su Mu did not dodge or evade, and even the Blood Drinking Sword at his waist was not unsheathed.

Seeing the moment when the Guan Dao fell, Su Mu raised his hand and grabbed the connection between the blade and the handle of the Guan Dao.

Seeing Su Mu's actions, a hint of anger flashed in Tan Zhishan's eyes.

This boy is so arrogant!

Throughout his life, Tan Zhishan has been a man of many talents, and no one has ever dared to look down on him like this!
You actually want to take his Guan Dao with your bare hands? !
Not to mention a mere warrior at the initial stage of Jindan, even a warrior of the same level would never be able to withstand his full-strength attack with bare hands!
Unless he is a warrior who practices the way to sanctify his physical body and reaches the high level of the Jindan realm.

His Genshan vision had the power to cause mountains to collapse and the earth to split, and the power of his Guandao was enough to crush Su Mu into a pulp.

Seeing that Su Mu was so ignorant of his own limitations, Tan Zhishan snorted in his heart. He could not help but increase his strength and exploded his power to the utmost.

If these young people are not allowed to see his abilities, they will really think that the Tan family is easy to bully!

boom!
While Tan Zhishan was thinking, Su Mu's palm had already accurately grasped the handle of the Guandao.

There was a loud bang.

The energy burst out from the place where Su Mu's palm touched Guan Dao.

The strong wind blew his and Tan Zhishan's hair and clothes.

It even blew up a lot of dust.

Click!

The bluestone steps under Su Mu's feet turned into powder in an instant, and his feet sank into the ground.

Tan Zhishan held the hilt of the knife with both hands, and the expression on his face was frozen.

Caught it?
He actually caught it?!
"Old General, I told you so."

Su Mu said calmly, "The Yangtze River's back waves push the front waves forward. You, are getting old!"

Before he finished speaking, Su Mu suddenly raised his right hand and chopped the handle of the Guandao.

Click!

The Guandao blade, made of fine steel, broke in the middle.

Tan Zhishan stared at the half-broken knife handle in his hand, unable to believe that this was real.

At this moment, Su Mu was already holding the broken Guandao, and slashed down at Tan Zhishan with his backhand.

"father!"

Tan Shulan's face changed drastically and he shouted loudly.
