Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 21 Like entering a deserted place
As Shen Pingan and his companions entered the gate of the East Factory, before they had gone far, a deafening drumbeat suddenly sounded from the front hall, echoing over the entire East Factory Yamen.

In an instant, the entire Dongchang Yamen began to rush towards the front hall.

When Shen Ping'an stepped into the front yard, nearly a hundred Jinyiwei had gathered there.

They all drew their swords and looked solemn.

At the entrance of the front hall behind the front yard, a captain of the Embroidered Uniform Guard stood with a knife in his hand.

The Jinyiwei who had just been let go by Shen Ping'an was standing next to this Jinyiwei captain.

At this time, Shen Zhongshan, who was walking behind him, suddenly took a few steps forward and walked to Shen Ping'an and lowered his voice.

"The man who led the team to arrest people at the shop this morning was that person. I know him. His name is Hao Baichuan, and his wife is from the Wang family."

"He was originally a centurion, but in recent years, thanks to the Wang family's money, he was promoted to a thousand households."

"Over the years, the Wang family has been able to rely on the power of the East Factory to suppress our Shen family because of this person."

Hearing this, Shen Pingan narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Hao Baichuan at the door of the front hall.

"Lucky, I found the real culprit directly."

At the same time, Hao Baichuan also looked up and glanced at Shen Pingan casually.

However, after Hao Baichuan's gaze lingered on Shen Ping'an for a moment, he was immediately attracted by Zhang Sanniang, Yao Yue and Lian Xing.

In the past, it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to see such beautiful beauties as Zhang Sanniang, Yao Yue and Lian Xing.

Not to mention that the three women are gathered together at this time.

It can be said that Hao Baichuan was dazzled.

Facing Hao Baichuan's greedy gaze sweeping up and down, Zhang Sanniang, Yao Yue and Lian Xing all frowned.

If it were any other time, not to mention the overbearing Yao Yue, even Zhang Sanniang and Lian Xing would probably not be able to help but teach him a lesson.

But after taking one look at Shen Ping'an, the three women all suppressed their displeasure.

After a few breaths, thinking of the other Jinyiwei around him, Hao Baichuan reluctantly moved his gaze from the three women back to Shen Pingan.

After a brief moment of thought, Hao Baichuan shouted, "How dare the Shen family rebel now? They actually dared to break into the East Depot? Come on! Capture all of these people."

As soon as the order was given, all the Jinyiwei in the front yard raised their blades and rushed towards Shen Pingan.

Looking at the nearly one hundred Jinyiwei coming forward together, let alone Qu Feiyan and Shen Qingshan.

Even Shen Zhongshan, who was much older than the two, felt a sinking feeling in his heart and subconsciously took half a step back.

On the contrary, Shen Pingan, when he looked at the Jinyiwei rushing towards him, there was no ripple in his eyes.

Facing the group of Jinyiwei in front of him, Shen Pingan raised his right hand slightly.

The sword-shaped true energy in his body instantly circulated along a mysterious route and then flowed into Shen Ping'an's right hand. As Shen Ping'an bent and flicked his right ring finger, a spherical sword energy instantly shot out.

When the spherical sword energy flew out and was half a foot away from Shen Ping'an, it instantly dispersed and turned into hundreds of sword energies as thin as hair, rushing towards the Jinyiwei in front of him like an overwhelming force.

Wherever the sword energy passed, the air seemed to tear apart, emitting a low whimper. The Jinyiwei who bore the brunt of the attack felt an irresistible force assaulting them. Their bodies were instantly pierced by the sword energy, and before they could even utter a scream, they fell to the ground, their faces pale.

"what?"

Just one strike left nearly a hundred Jinyiwei seriously injured and falling to the ground.

Looking at the Jinyiwei who fell to the ground in front of him, Shen Pingan shook his head secretly.

Victory is achieved by overwhelming numbers, that is when the difference in strength between the two sides is not that big.

If the gap in strength between the two sides is so great that victory can be achieved through sheer numbers, then why would warriors bother to train so hard? They can just recruit soldiers everywhere.

The world will no longer be as it is now, with the martial arts world and the court clearly separated.

Shen Pingan acted calm and composed, but when he saw a group of Jinyiwei falling down and wailing in the blink of an eye, the expressions of the other Jinyiwei who were gathering around him with swords in hand suddenly changed, and their bodies froze in place.

Even if someone had already rushed to the front yard, they stopped and looked at Shen Pingan with horror.

"What a terrifying control."

Although these Jinyiwei in front of them are not from the underworld, the East Factory is also responsible for dealing with various forces in the underworld.

How could those who could join the Jinyiwei be useless?

Since Cao Zhengchun took charge of the East Factory, the entire East Factory has been a place where the weak are demoted and the strong are promoted.

If you want to become a centurion, in addition to having the corresponding merits, you also need to cultivate to the innate realm.

These hundred Jinyiwei were eliminated with one move. Lianxing and Yaoyue were also able to do it when they were in Guiyuan Realm.

But he couldn't do what Shen Ping'an did now, which was to kill a hundred people with one move while only injuring them without killing them.

Not only does it require the warrior to have an incredibly precise control over his or her true energy, but it also requires him or her to have an extremely high level of mastery over the martial arts being used.

Moreover, what concerned Lian Xing and even Yao Yue was that Shen Ping'an had not even used his sword power yet.

For a moment, the two women were also curious about Shen Ping'an's strength. What level had he reached?
At this moment, when everyone in the front yard was stunned by the effect of Shen Ping'an's previous move, Shen Ping'an suddenly looked at Hao Baichuan who was standing at the door of the front hall.

As Shen An's gaze fell on him, Hao Baichuan felt that Shen Ping'an's gaze was like two ice knives sticking to his body, bringing waves of chills.

"Damn it, when did the Shen family have such a young master?"

Just when Hao Baichuan felt something was wrong, Shen Pingan suddenly moved.

The moment he took a step, the hearts of the Jinyiwei around him tightened, but still no one dared to step forward.

At the door of the front hall, Hao Baichuan felt a panic in his heart as he looked at the Jinyiwei who had stopped in their tracks and Shen Pingan who was walking towards him step by step.

He also drew his sword and shouted angrily at the newly gathered Jinyiwei: "What are you standing there for? Come on!"

Among those present, in addition to the Jinyiwei who witnessed Shen Ping'an's strength at the beginning, there were also many Jinyiwei who gathered later.

Faced with Hao Baichuan's order, the Jinyiwei who gathered behind hesitated for a moment, but still chose to take action.

In an instant, a group of Jinyiwei rushed towards Shen Pingan from all directions, and the flashes of swords and shadows of knives intertwined into a net.

Seeing these Jinyiwei taking action again, Qu Feiyan, Shen Qingshan and Shen Chongshan were ready to help.

But just as the three of them were mobilizing the internal energy in their dantian one after another, Zhang Sanniang on the side suddenly spoke up to stop them.

"Mr. Shen has his own plans in mind, so it's better for you not to take action."

Shen Ping'an is very powerful. When facing many Jinyiwei, he can only injure them but not kill them.

However, Qu Feiyan and the others were only at the Tongmai realm, and their martial arts were far inferior to Shen Ping'an's, who could control his attacks freely and without regard for the strength of his blows.

It will only cause more trouble.

After hearing Zhang Sanniang's words, Qu Feiyan and the others looked at each other with some hesitation on their faces. "It's okay! Just watch."

It was not until Shen Ping'an's voice reached the ears of the three that Qu Feiyan and the others gave up.

Afterwards, under the gaze of the crowd, Shen Ping'an faced the Jinyiwei who were rushing towards him from different directions without changing his pace. He raised his hand and lightly tapped the air. Countless sword energies spread out like spring rain and shuttled through the crowd. Wherever they passed, blood flowers swayed and screams came one after another.

Although they were moving slowly, it was difficult for the Jinyiwei to get within ten feet of Shen Ping'an.

But in the face of all this, Shen Pingan was as calm as if he was in an empty place and continued walking forward.

Shen Ping'an was not walking very fast, as if he was in the beautiful suburbs instead of the notorious East Factory Yamen.

Apart from anything else, this calm and composed demeanor, coupled with Shen Ping'an's handsome face, not only attracted the praise of Yao Yue and Lian Xing behind him, but also made Zhang Sanniang's beautiful eyes light up, and she could not take her eyes away from the inky figure in front of her for a while.

In the front yard, as dozens of Jinyiwei who rushed up again fell to the ground, the remaining people looked at Shen Pingan, who was surrounded by sword energy, and their eyes were filled with fear.

As Shen Ping'an got closer, Hao Baichuan at the front hall couldn't help but retreat again.

"Whoosh!"

However, just as Hao Baichuan lifted one foot back, a sword energy shot through the air like an arrow and instantly rushed in front of Hao Baichuan, piercing his knee.

"what!"

The pain in his bone marrow made Hao Baichuan, who was completely unprepared, fall to the ground, holding his injured leg and howling in pain.

Qu Feiyan, who was following behind Shen Pingan, tsk-tsk twice and said with a bit of admiration: "After all, he is a captain of the East Factory. Not only is his position higher than the other Jinyiwei, but even his voice is louder than others."

As soon as these words came out, not to mention Zhang Sanniang and Lian Xing, even Yao Yue raised the corner of her mouth slightly because of Qu Feiyan's words.

Shen Ping'an, who had already walked to the front hall, shook his head. He was used to Qu Feiyan's eccentricity.

After calming down his thoughts, Shen Pingan slowly walked to Hao Baichuan.

As for the Jinyiwei who had just reported, he subconsciously lowered his head, his hands clenched tightly because he was too nervous, and he didn't dare to move at all.

His eyes lowered, and his cold gaze fell on Hao Baichuan.

"Let him go?"

Facing Shen Pingan who was walking towards him, Hao Baichuan no longer had the arrogance he had at the beginning.

He endured the pain in his leg and took off his badge, saying in a trembling voice, "Bring the person out."

Seeing this, the Jinyiwei standing by hurriedly bent down to take the badge and turned to run towards the Dongchang prison.

After the Jinyiwei left, Hao Baichuan, whose face had turned pale, said hurriedly, "It was the Wang family's idea to arrest your Shen family. I was just doing it for the money. If you want revenge, just go to the Wang family."

"I'm a captain of the East Factory. If anything happens to me, the East Factory and Supervisor Cao will never let you go."

"Whoosh!"

However, just as Hao Baichuan finished speaking, another sword energy rushed out from Shen Ping'an's fingers, piercing through the knee of Hao Baichuan's other leg, causing him to scream in pain.

Hao Baichuan is not a person with a strong character.

After being injured repeatedly, including having his kneecap shattered by sword energy, the intense pain overwhelmed Hao Baichuan's consciousness and he fainted.

In response to this, Shen Pingan did not continue to take action, but stood there and waited quietly.

At this moment, almost all the Jinyiwei in the East Factory who had not been on a mission had gathered in the front yard and surrounded Shen Pingan and his companions in three layers.

The people outside could only hear the screams coming from the front hall and had no idea what was happening in the front yard.

The people in the front yard looked at the injured Jinyiwei on the ground and did not dare to take the risk to move forward.

The situation was deadlocked for a while.

Only the sound of screams of pain echoed around.

Half a minute later, as the Jinyiwei who had just left came back, Shen Tiannan and several members of the Shen family were also brought back to the front yard.

When Shen Tiannan and his companions saw the injured Jinyiwei lying on the ground in the front yard, they were shocked and quickly looked at Shen Pingan.

"Peace, this."

Shen Ping'an's eyes swept over Shen Tiannan and the others, and only after confirming that their breathing was steady and their faces looked normal, and they did not look like they were injured, did Shen Ping'an speak.

"Everyone at home is worried about Second Uncle. Second Uncle, you should go back with Uncle Chongshan and the others first."

Shen Tiannan asked: "What about you?"

Shen Pingan said softly: "After the rest of the things are done, my nephew will naturally go back. The details will be discussed after my nephew comes back."

As he spoke, Shen Pingan gave Shen Tiannan a soothing look.

Although he was confused, facing Shen Ping'an's signal, after hesitating for a moment, Shen Tiannan still did as Shen Pingan said and left with the others.

Seeing this, the Jinyiwei in the front yard wanted to stop Shen Tiannan and his companions, but the moment these Jinyiwei stepped forward, Chongxiao's sword intent instantly burst out from Shen Ping'an's body.

As the sword intent surged, the Jinyiwei who wanted to stop Shen Tiannan and his companions from leaving felt as if a huge rock weighing ten thousand pounds was pressing down on them, making it impossible for them to move.

This terrifying pressure only dissipated after Shen Tiannan and others left.

After realizing this, these Jinyiwei looked at Shen Ping'an with a hint of fear in their eyes.

Shen Tiannan and others left safely, and Shen Qingshan, who had been nervous before, finally felt relieved.

But looking at Shen Pingan who was still standing there, Shen Qingshan asked in confusion: "Cousin, since we have rescued Dad and the others, why are we still staying here?"

Hearing this, Shen Pingan said softly: "There is still one person to wait for."

Shen Qingshan was stunned for a moment. "Waiting for someone? Waiting for whom?"

A thought flashed through Qu Feiyan's mind and she asked, "Sir, are you planning to wait for Cao Zhengchun to come?"

Shen Qingshan was stunned and said, "They said Cao Zhengchun is not in the East Factory now?"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Qingshan reacted and slapped his forehead.

"That's right! If Cao Zhengchun was in the East Factory, he would have come out when my cousin attacked those Jinyiwei at the door."

"But cousin, why do you have to wait for Cao Zhengchun to come?"

Shen Pingan smiled lightly: "It's easy to save people, but it's hard to end things. Since we have already started, we should see it through to the end. If we leave without even seeing the host, it will inevitably be a breach of etiquette."

However, just as he finished speaking, Shen Pingan suddenly paused, as if he had noticed something.

Immediately afterwards, a feminine voice emerged from above the East Factory.

"Oh? Then I'm curious, what kind of etiquette is it that Master Shen barges in like this?"
