King of Glory: Catch All the Female Heroes

The trumpets on the city wall sounded, and the soldiers responsible for the defense of the city wall ran quickly on the wall.

At the same time, the Chang'an Security Team, the Yuheng Division, and the Imperial Guards near the Daming Palace all learned that Chang'an City had been attacked.

Since Empress Wu Zetian ascended the throne, Chang'an has never experienced unrest again.

Chang'an became the most stable and prosperous city in the King's Continent.

But even so, when Chang'an was attacked, the violent organizations in the city quickly took action.

Wu Zetian also soon learned the news.

Shangguan Wan'er came to Wu Zetian's side as soon as possible.

"Your Majesty, someone flew quickly from the sky and attacked the guards on the south city. Some people saw that the attacker was Yun Ying from the Dali Temple, and..."

Seeing Shangguan Wan'er hesitating, Wu Zetian could not help but frown and whispered, "Besides Yunying, who else is there?"

"And Zhang Cheng!"

"Zhang Cheng?"

Wu Zetian thought about it for a moment, as if she had thought of something, and quickly said to Shangguan Wan'er: "Zhang Cheng and Yun Ying would never attack Chang'an without a reason. I guess they are probably giving a warning."

"Warning?"

"Yes, they must have discovered something outside the city, and they resorted to this desperate measure in order to put the defenders on alert quickly. If I am not mistaken, Chang'an will most likely face a crisis next. Wan'er, take my handwritten order and go to Ganye Temple immediately to ask Jin Chan to send monks to assist the Chang'an Security Team in protecting Chang'an. In addition, ask Jin Chan to help me guard Ganye Temple!"

Jiang Ziya was imprisoned in Ganye Temple, and Wu Zetian was worried that Jiang Ziya would take advantage of the chaos to escape from the temple.

Shangguan Wan'er nodded slightly, and just as she turned to leave, she heard a burst of urgent horns sounding in the Daming Palace.

Wu Zetian raised her head and looked towards the sky, and soon saw Zhang Cheng appear in the sky with Yunying.

When she first saw Zhang Cheng, Wu Zetian hurriedly and loudly ordered, "Imperial Guards, do not act rashly."

Zhang Cheng circled in the sky and saw that the Imperial Guards had put away their mechanical weapons under Wu Zetian's order. Then Zhang Cheng descended from the sky with Yunying and finally landed steadily in front of Wu Zetian.

When he saw Wu Zetian, Zhang Cheng got straight to the point and said loudly, "Your Majesty, Ming Shiyin's plot has been uncovered. He has created fifty Dominant Vanguards outside Chang'an. These Dominant Vanguards will soon be heading towards Chang'an. Please give the order, Your Majesty, to put the whole city on alert."

Almost at the same time as Zhang Cheng finished speaking, an explosion suddenly came from the direction of the southern city wall.

Soon after that, Zhang Cheng and the other two saw flames rising into the sky near the south city wall.

Seeing this, Yun Ying couldn't help but whisper, "The Overlord's Vanguard has entered the city!"

Wu Zetian's expression gradually became gloomy. She was silent for a moment, and then she shouted to several guard leaders in the distance: "Pass on my order, Chang'an City will continue to implement curfew. People are not allowed to leave their rooms. The guards will carry mechanical weapons and assist the Chang'an Security Team to kill the vanguard of the master who enters the city."

"Also, if anyone in the city leaves their residence without permission, they will be killed without mercy."

After several leaders of the Imperial Guards left, Wu Zetian turned to Zhang Cheng and whispered, "Zhang Cheng, what is going on with the Lord of the Vanguard? What is Ming Shiyin's conspiracy?"

Wu Zetian had long known that Ming Shiyin was trying to harm Chang'an, but she had never found out what Ming Shiyin's trump card was. Because of this, Wu Zetian had been keeping her troops on the sidelines, preparing to play the long game and catch the big fish.

The Dominant Vanguard that suddenly appeared now is probably the trump card that Ming Shiyin has been hiding all along.

But there is still one thing Wu Zetian can't figure out, which is what exactly is Ming Shiyin's plan?

Just causing chaos in Chang'an?

Even if Chang'an is in chaos, it cannot hurt Heluo's foundation, unless Ming Shiyin can find a way to wipe out Chang'an.

"The Overlord Vanguard is a very powerful monster. It should not be classified as an ordinary wild monster, but its strength is far above that of ordinary wild monsters. If we cannot kill fifty Overlord Vanguards as soon as possible, they will bring great damage to Chang'an."

"Ming Shiyin wants to use this to disrupt Chang'an. He does this to get the Ark Core in Chang'an City."

"Ark Core?"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Wu Zetian frowned slightly, and then whispered to Zhang Cheng: "Is the Ark core really in Chang'an City?"

Zhang Cheng nodded and said, "If Her Majesty the Empress trusts me, I can take Yao Tian's people to stop Ming Shiyin and prevent him from getting the core of the Ark."

Wu Zetian looked at Zhang Cheng intently and asked, "Do you know where the core of the Ark is?"

"I don't know where the Ark Core is, but Ming Shiyin knows. As long as Ming Shiyin enters Chang'an City, I can follow Ming Shiyin to find the Ark Core."

Zhang Cheng actually knew where the core of the Ark was. The core of the Ark was on Zhong Kui's body.

However, Zhang Cheng cannot tell Wu Zetian about this news yet.

Wu Zetian nodded slightly and then turned her gaze back to Yun Ying.

"Yun Ying, you are responsible for assisting Zhang Cheng. If you can do this well, I will consider you a great merit."

When Yun Ying heard Wu Zetian's words, her beautiful big eyes lit up instantly.

Just at this moment, a shrill scream suddenly came from the air not far away.

Immediately afterwards, another horn sounded from the Daming Palace.

Zhang Cheng and the other two looked in the direction where the scream came from, and soon saw a gigantic Overlord Vanguard flapping its wings and quickly flying towards where Wu Zetian and the other two were.

The Guards launched an attack on the Overlord Vanguard from a distance.

Light beams, fireballs, various crossbows, and long arrows whizzed towards the Overlord Vanguard like raindrops.

What was surprising was that the attack of the Royal Guards did not cause any substantial damage to the Dominant Vanguard.

The Dominant Vanguard seemed to have determined that Zhang Cheng and his two companions were rare delicacies, and faced with a large number of Royal Guards, it ignored them and rushed towards Zhang Cheng and his two companions with red eyes.

"Protect Her Majesty the Empress!"

"Where are the shieldmen? Archers keep shooting!"

The Imperial Guards were in chaos, but Wu Zetian had good composure. She looked at the rapidly approaching Lord's Vanguard without a trace of panic on her face.

One hundred steps, fifty steps!

When the Lord's Vanguard was less than fifty steps away from Wu Zetian, Zhang Cheng planned to take action.

But at this moment, a large ball of white mist suddenly bloomed under the body of the Dominant Vanguard.

In the blink of an eye, the Overlord Vanguard turned into an ice lump and fell from the sky.
