The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"The three thousand elite members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, even the weakest of them have reached the Grandmaster realm?"

"There's also a sword formation?"

Ximen Jue stared at Chu Xiu with a look of shock on his face. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he would have doubted whether he had misheard.

After all, in his memory, the Embroidered Uniform Guard had been in decline for many years.

Although the Embroidered Uniform Guard began to rise again after Chu Xiu took office as the commander of the Northern Garrison of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

He had heard quite a few things during this period.

But no one expected that the Embroidered Uniform Guard would grow so quickly.

What shocked him even more was that the Embroidered Uniform Guard actually had a sword formation comparable to a military formation.

The matter of the Embroidered Uniform Guard possessing a killing blade formation was blocked by powerful families in the capital.

Don't say that Ximen Jue is just a person from the martial arts world.

Even powerful families outside the capital were unaware of it.

"Brother Ximen, would you like to witness the sword formation of my Embroidered Uniform Guard?"

Chu Xiu looked at Ximen Jue with a calm expression and said.

"Does Lord Chu mean that you intend to take action against the Wuji Sect now?"

Ximen Jue's heart stirred, and he looked intently at Chu Xiu and asked.

They knew that Chu Xiu had not come alone, but with three thousand elite Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards), and also with a sword formation no weaker than a military formation.

He no longer felt any worry.

"good."

"Now that I know that the Wuji Sect is creating demons, we must eradicate them completely!"

A murderous glint flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes as he said with chilling killing intent, "Moreover, it's not just the Wuji Sect, but also the Sima Clan!"

The entire Sima clan will not escape!

"Alright, since Lord Chu has invited me, then I will fight alongside you!"

"Eliminate the Wuji Sect and wipe out the Sima Clan!"

Ximen Jue said with an unwavering expression on his face.

"Brother Ximen, there is a Rejuvenating Pill in here. It is a true holy medicine for healing injuries. After taking it, your injuries will be completely healed."

"Once you've fully recovered, we'll head to the Wuji Sect!"

Chu Xiu flipped his right hand, revealing a white porcelain bottle in his palm. He handed it to Ximen Jue and said...

He had previously rewarded Fang Heng with a total of ten bottles of Rejuvenation Pills, and gave him three bottles.

Later, Chu Xiu took out five more bottles of Rejuvenation Pills and put them into the storeroom of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.

The remaining two bottles of Rejuvenation Pills were given one to Yu Xuanji for use in the household.

He divided the other bottle of Rejuvenation Pill into ten porcelain bottles, each containing one Rejuvenation Pill.

"Thank you, Lord Chu."

Ximen Jue hesitated for a moment, then took the white porcelain bottle and thanked Chu Xiu.

Although he didn't think his injuries could be healed by taking a Rejuvenating Pill.

Given his current internal injuries, it would be quite an achievement if he could recover in three to five years.

But this was, after all, Chu Xiu's heartfelt intention.

"Brother Ximen, you can heal your wounds here."

"I'm going out now to gather my elite Imperial Guards."

Chu Xiu nodded slightly, turned and walked out of the study, closing the door behind him for Ximen Jue.

"Fang Heng!"

Chu Xiu walked out of the study and said in a deep and powerful voice.

He certainly didn't enter the city of Shangdang alone.

Fang Heng followed him into the city, while Pei Shiji and Luo Tianxi were responsible for commanding three thousand elite Jinyiwei outside the city.

Swish!

Fang Heng, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly appeared and bowed to Chu Xiu, saying, "Greetings, Your Excellency."

Upon seeing Fang Heng appear, the group of Imperial Guards agents were stunned for a moment, as they had not realized that Fang Heng had been hiding in the shadows.

Ximen Jue was clearly injured, which is why he failed to detect Fang Heng's presence.

"No need to be polite."

"Leave the city now and summon my Imperial Guards to enter!"

"Let's meet here!"

Chu Xiu said calmly.

"My lord, what if the soldiers of Shangdang County refuse to open the city gates?"

Fang Heng considered it for a moment and then asked Chu Xiu.

"If the soldiers of Shangdang Prefecture dare to refuse to open the city gates, they will be punished for treason!"

"Kill without mercy!"

Chu Xiu said calmly.

"Yes, sir!"

Fang Heng bowed, then vanished from the spot in a flash.

After a cup of tea.

Fang Heng, Pei Shiji, and Luo Tianxi led three thousand elite Imperial Guards to the city gate of Shangdang County.

now.

Everyone was dressed in the flying fish uniform of the Imperial Guard.

Although these three thousand elite Imperial Guards left the capital in batches after disguising themselves.

However, each person carried a package, which contained not only their embroidered spring knives, but also their flying fish robes and tokens.

Although it is now the hour of Chou (1-3 AM), the dead of night.

but.

The soldiers of Shangdang County on the city wall remained on high alert.

this moment.

Upon seeing the arrival of a large number of Imperial Guards, the commander of the Shangdang County troops on the city wall narrowed his eyes, revealing a look of shock.

After all, to become a county military officer, his strength had already reached the Yuan Shen realm.

It is natural to make night as bright as day.

Where is the city gate guard?

Fang Heng looked at the soldiers of Shangdang County on the city wall and shouted loudly.

"My lord, I am the gatekeeper."

"I wonder what brings you here so late at night?"

The captain took a deep breath, cupped his hands in greeting to Fang Heng, and said.

"This is not a question you can ask!"

"Open the city gates! Do not obstruct our Imperial Guards from handling this case!"

Fang Heng's face was stern, and he said in a cold voice, "Otherwise, you, a mere city gate guard, cannot bear the consequences!"

Beads of sweat appeared on the captain's forehead, and he gestured to one of his subordinates.

The military commander understood immediately, turned around, and wanted to leave the city tower.

"My lord, our Commandant has sealed off the entire Shangdang Commandery and is searching the entire city for the imperial criminals. No one is allowed to open the city gates."

"Please forgive me, sir."

"We will only know whether we can open the city gates and let this official in after we report to the Commandant."

The captain gritted his teeth, cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Fang Heng, and said.

"presumptuous!"

"Anyone who dares to obstruct our Embroidered Uniform Guard from handling a case will be killed without mercy!"

A glint of light flashed in Fang Heng's eyes. He took a step forward and rose into the air, appearing high in the sky. He drew his sword from its sheath and slashed at the captain!

A terrifying blade of energy slashed down towards the entire city tower!

Upon seeing this strike, the captain's face showed horror, and he shouted loudly, "Form ranks!"

Although I knew all along that the Embroidered Uniform Guard acted recklessly.

However, he did not expect that the Embroidered Uniform Guard would act so recklessly.

You should know that they were soldiers from Shangdang County.

How dare he make a move?

The soldiers on the city wall also reacted and tried to form a formation to block Fang Heng's attack.

only!

They're still too slow!

Rumble!

As the blade of energy struck, the entire city tower shattered!

In fact, not only were the city towers destroyed, but the city gates below them also collapsed.

"Let's go into the city!"

With a wave of his hand, Fang Heng entered the city of Shangdang County.

Pei Shiji and Luo Tianxi led three thousand elite Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards) into the county town.

Fang Heng's strike just now resulted in either death or serious injury to all the soldiers on the city wall.

In less than half a day.

Fang Heng and his group had already arrived outside the restaurant.

Standing in the dark, deserted street, I waited silently.

Three thousand elite Imperial Guards were stationed there, filling not only the entire street but also the area outside the street.
