Great Xia: At the start, summon the Net of Heaven to suppress the martial arts world.

In the woods, the enemy leader, seeing that his arrow barrage had failed, knew he could not delay any longer. He decisively waved his hand and led his men in a charge.

Upon seeing this, Jingni's smile grew even wider.

"The Cai family and the Wang family, how dare they! Openly assassinating important court officials!"

Upon hearing Jing Ni's words reveal their origins, Elder Cai and Elder Wang felt a sudden tremor in their hearts, and an ominous premonition instantly surged into their minds.

The two looked at each other, their eyes meeting and both seeing the astonishment and panic in each other's eyes.

In that instant, countless thoughts flashed through their minds.

"This is bad! Was this operation by the imperial court premeditated? We've probably fallen into a trap!"

The elder Cai murmured softly, his voice trembling involuntarily.

The old man's face was so gloomy it seemed like it could drip water, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Damn it! There's definitely a traitor in the family!"

Thinking of this, the two felt a chill run down their spines and their whole bodies went cold.

Just then, Yan Ri, who had been hiding in the crowd, finally stopped hiding and appeared beside Jing Ni like a ghost.

He stood shoulder to shoulder with Jing Ni, his gaze as cold as knives, staring directly at Cai Wang and his companion, coldly uttering a single sentence:

"There's no need to waste words with them. It's more important to take their heads and report back to His Highness!"

When Cai and Wang saw Yan Ri appear before them, they were startled and their expressions instantly became extremely solemn.

Especially when they sensed the powerful aura emanating from Yan Ri, a deep sense of fear welled up in their hearts.

This person is such a formidable character... It seems that escaping unscathed today will be as difficult as ascending to heaven! Elder Cai lamented inwardly.

The old man of the royal family was also pale and looked extremely unwell.

However, despite the extremely unfavorable situation, the two were seasoned veterans who knew that it was precisely in such times that they could not panic.

The two exchanged a glance, nodded in understanding, and prepared to retreat and escape before the enemy could completely encircle them.

But just as they turned to leave, they suddenly felt several chilling killing intents coming from behind them.

Looking back, they saw six figures appear silently like ghosts, each holding a gleaming sword and staring intently at the two of them with cold, ruthless eyes.

Cai and Wang gasped, realizing something was wrong.

The six people appeared so suddenly that they didn't notice the slightest movement at all.

Based on their years of experience, the two judged that these six people were definitely grandmaster-level experts with unfathomable strength!

At this moment, surrounded by formidable enemies, the scene was shrouded in oppressive darkness, creating a suffocating and oppressive atmosphere.

The two clan elders, Cai and Wang, exchanged a glance and saw a deep sense of despair in each other's eyes.

In this desperate situation, it seems there is no way out.

At this tense moment, a furious shout from Yan Ri rang out:

"Do it!"

Before he finished speaking, Yan Ri had already raised his gleaming sword and charged fiercely towards the two clan elders, Cai and Wang.

That sharp sword energy was like a bolt of lightning slicing through the sky, carrying endless killing intent.

Seeing this, Jingni, who was standing next to Yanri, did not hesitate to follow Yanri and rush towards the Cai clan elder.

She moved with agility and speed, like a ghost, her long sword flashing and creating gusts of wind.

Meanwhile, the elders of the Wang family were handed over to the Six Sword Slaves, who were known for their tacit cooperation, to deal with them.

In an instant, the six sword slaves deployed their formation, surrounding the Wang family elders. Each of them displayed their unique sword techniques, echoing each other and forming an invincible force.

The crowd below were equally fierce, and their battle cries shook the heavens and the earth.

Soldiers against soldiers, generals against generals, each displaying their unique abilities.

The experts brought by the Cai and Wang clans understood that today was likely to be a day of great danger, but their desire to survive drove them to hold nothing back. They charged at the many elite troops of the Zhenwu Division like madmen.

However, the gap in strength is ultimately not something that can be easily overcome.

Yan Ri is a powerful expert in the late stage of Grandmaster, and Jing Ni is also a master in the middle stage of Grandmaster.

Although the elders of the Cai clan also possessed the cultivation of a mid-stage Grandmaster, they quickly found themselves overwhelmed and exhausted by the combined attacks of Yan Ri and Jing Ni.

In just a short while, the Cai clan elder had multiple injuries, his moves gradually became disorganized, and he was ultimately no match for Yan Ri and the other two, and was defeated.

On the other side, the situation of the Wang clan elders was not much better.

Faced with the Six Sword Slaves' exquisite combined attack, even if he tried his best, he could not withstand this powerful offensive.

With the breathtaking battle at the Grandmaster level coming to an end, the two elders of the Cai royal family were already critically injured and on the verge of death, with no strength left to fight.

Seeing the situation was turning against them, the people from the two families below scattered like birds and beasts, trying to escape this hellish scene.

However, the idea was far too naive.

Faced with numerous well-trained Zhenwu Division experts, these people's attempt to escape was futile.

At that moment, the ruthless Six Sword Slaves made their move without any hesitation.

The six figures moved through the crowd like ghosts, their swords gleaming coldly, each swing carrying a deadly threat.

The experts from the Cai and Wang families were instantly plunged into a desperate situation by this sudden attack.

They were like fragile ants, utterly unable to withstand the Six Sword Slaves' fierce attacks.

With a flash of sword light, one master after another was mercilessly stabbed to death from behind, blood splattering everywhere and staining the ground beneath their feet red.

But not everyone suffered a tragic fate in this bloody massacre.

Perhaps for some reason, the Zhenwu Division deliberately let a few lucky individuals escape.

When the dust settled, the battlefield was littered with corpses, a truly horrific sight.

Meanwhile, Jingni and Yanri, the victors of this battle, appeared remarkably relaxed and at ease.

The two stood unharmed, coldly observing the horrific scene before them.

In particular, Yan Ri's face was ashen, his gaze fixed on the two elders, Cai Wang and his brother, who were already on the verge of death.

After a brief silence, Yan Ri turned to Jing Ni beside him and asked in a deep voice, "What should we do with these two? Should we kill them on the spot, or spare their lives and bring them back to the Chief for a decision?"

"Let the judge decide!"

Yan Ri nodded upon hearing this, and with that, the task Xia Taige had given him was completed!

At this moment, Cai Zhiquan, the Minister of Revenue, and Wang Hui, the Minister of Justice, who were closely watching the battle in the capital, paced anxiously back and forth in the main hall of their residence!

The two men looked up at the door every now and then, waiting for good news to arrive.

However, what awaits the two of them is a bolt from the blue!
