Chapter 108 The Hero of the World

Chapter 108 The Hero of the World
The night was as cool as water. Although the bright light in the sky was fleeting, Li Xiaoxi's heart was already trembling with fear.

"Put out the fire! Put out the fire!"

He felt a chill down his spine, and immediately shouted loudly: "Enemy attack, enemy attack! Raise the drawbridge! Close the gates and fight back!"

But at this moment, except for him, few people reacted. When someone on the top of the city wall was holding a bow in panic, the slight tremor of the ground became more and more violent, until a continuous muffled thunder sounded, penetrating the sound of falling rain.

By the time his voice fell, the muffled thunder had turned into the clearly audible sound of thousands of horses galloping.

On the other hand, on the suspension bridge, Li Xiaoxi and several cavalrymen were stuck in the middle of the bridge, and they didn't even have time to turn their horses around.

Because behind the cavalry, there were still a dozen large carts carrying dozens of boxes, blocking the city gate. As a result, there was no time to switch positions, and people roared and horses neighed.

Although the armored guards behind him threw the butter torches into the moat immediately as ordered, in the eyes of Wang Yanzhang who was far away, that instant was enough for him to figure out where was the best place to enter the city.

In the dark night, Wang Yanzhang tried his best to hold down his body, tightly grasping the gun barrel with one hand.

Behind him, eight hundred elite cavalrymen also gritted their teeth and urged their horses to gallop towards the city gate. In front of the cavalry formation, rows of weapons were tempered by rain and flashed with coldness.

On the suspension bridge, Li Xiaoxi was extremely anxious. He was so anxious that he stabbed the horse's belly with the tip of his knife.

Several carts were hit and overturned, boxes fell down one after another, and copper coins rolled to the ground and fell into the moat in waves.

But their heads were in danger, and no one cared about the wealth under the horses' hooves. They were all just scrambling to get into the city gate.

Fortunately, after exerting all their strength, this group of people finally rushed down the suspension bridge, and the iron chain that was originally unable to be pulled finally began to exert all its strength and rolled up desperately.

But at this moment, several cries of panic were heard from the top of the city.

Li Xiaoxi turned around in horror, only to see a tall and strong man holding a 10-foot-long iron spear. He pulled the reins of the horse fiercely with one hand. The horse under his crotch first neighed loudly, and then jumped with all its might.

There was a loud bang, hitting the suspension bridge.

The giant laughed ferociously, swung the iron spear in his hand, and instantly swept the iron chains on both sides of the suspension bridge into pieces.

"The one who captured the city was Wang Yanzhang of the Longxiang Army!"

Looking harder again, behind Wang Yanzhang, a large flag had been raised among the wave of elite cavalry.

"Xiao, the cavalry commander of the Hebei camp's left vanguard."

It was not until this time that the first wave of arrows was fired from the top of the city wall, but Wang Yanzhang had already let out a long whistle, pierced through two cavalrymen who were protecting Li Xiaoxi with a spear, and rushed into the gate on his horse, preventing them from closing the heavy city gate.

"Eating dog intestines, Liang Jun!?"

Li Xiaoxi's eyes were red with anger, but he didn't dare to look back. He whipped the horse hard and rode away.

However, he was still lagging behind. There was a lot of crowding in front of him, and the soldiers behind the city gate were trying their best to close it, causing extreme chaos.

In the crowd, Xiahou Jing was also rushing towards the city in a panic, but soon he felt someone flying behind him. When he turned back in horror, he only saw Li Xiaoxi's ferocious and terrifying face.

"plum……"

Before he could finish his words, he felt his collar being suddenly lifted up, and then his whole body flew into the air and flew backwards.

"Deputy Commander, block the way for me!"

Li Xiaoxi grabbed the reins, raised his sword and killed several cavalrymen who were blocking his way, then rushed into the city.

Not far behind, Wang Yanzhang shouted loudly, and without even looking, he smashed the figure flying backwards in the air with his iron spear.

The Youzhou cavalrymen who were originally guarding behind them wanted to stop them, but at this time the elite Longxiong cavalry also rushed over in waves. In an instant, the entire moat was full of people and horses falling. In addition, with Wang Yanzhang as the tip of the knife, it was almost a one-sided massacre inside the gate.

After wiping the blood off his face, Wang Yanzhang raised his head ferociously, and his pair of tiger eyes narrowed instantly.

Behind the city gate, several riders fled in panic.

He rushed left and right, and an iron spear fell into his hand, which almost became a heavy club. After a crazy smash, there was no guard behind the city gate with a intact skull, all of them were turned into pieces.

However, because of this, the guards on the top of the city wall also rushed down desperately to retake the city gate.

Wang Yanzhang was killing with great pleasure and was not afraid at all. He raised the reins and was about to meet the enemy.

But at this moment, an eagle's cry suddenly came from the sky. Wang Yanzhang looked up immediately and saw a Gypsophila falcon circling above his head.

His heart sank, and he suddenly turned his horse's head and shouted orders.

"Don't worry about the city gates, just go straight to the governor's mansion—"

"Let's welcome the envoy back to the battlefield!"

------

Jiedushi Mansion.

Inside and outside the government office, there were also deafening shouts of killing.

Although a few bad guys did have some skills, the soldiers guarding outside the yamen had already heard the noise and rushed in from the lobby in waves. They were unable to fight four hands with two fists and gradually seemed to be unable to cope.

Liu Rengong had no way to avoid it, so he crouched and crawled to the corridor, where there were several knocked-over tables and desks, and he could hide there for a while.

As for the old Taoist, he was dragged into the fight for no reason. He had no way of saying anything and could only wave his whisk repeatedly, beating to death several yamen soldiers who came to kill him.

As the most wrongly accused hostage, he had thought about attacking Xiao Yan to prove his innocence, but he just glanced in that direction and was so frightened that he dared not look again.

The latter had tied up the sleeves of his Taoist robe tightly and was constantly moving among the crowd. Every time he passed by someone, there would be a figure with a black chest and shriveled body falling down.

As he strolled in the garden, killing seemed to him as easy as drinking water.

If a bystander watches it, it would seem like they are appreciating a piece of art.

But the scene was still actually dangerous. At this time, the spilled blood had splattered the lanterns red, and the candles were shaking and were extinguished by the blood.

The burly Youzhou soldiers were still swarming in.

Xiao Yan stepped back half a step, and a stream of energy gathered in his palm. Then, as he moved his palm, the murderous energy in his palm was like mist, which came from far away and slapped heavily towards the faces of several yamen soldiers.

Suddenly.

Just like a sudden strong wind.

The dense raindrops in the air paused for a moment, and then suddenly trembled. In the rain, murderous energy rolled in like a blade. The blade flew out, carrying murderous intent all over the sky, covering the eyes of countless people.

At the gate, screams were heard and an inexplicable fear made people feel uncontrollably.

Xiao Yan remained calm. He stretched out his hands, each holding an iron knife, and charged straight into the group of yamen soldiers who were pouring in.

At this time, the gate was still in chaos. He struck with his long sword in both hands, and each time he struck out, he left a thin trail of blood on the necks of several figures. The crowd that had just broken in was instantly frightened and retreated desperately.

At the threshold, a knife dripping with blood was poking out.

Afterwards, Xiao Yan stood on the steps with an indifferent expression, and slowly stopped. Then, he looked down coldly at the swords and halberds flashing with cold light below the steps.

Behind him, the Taoist priest's face jumped.

This guy is really not a killing god! ?

How could he block the gate in an instant with just two long swords? !
The soldiers were frightened by the pair of eyes, one blue and one black. They all looked at each other and did not dare to step forward.

Inside the government office, the pressure on a few bad guys suddenly dropped.

Outside the gate, the general who was holding Ma Yu gritted his teeth and shouted, "He's just one man, what's there to be afraid of? As long as he's a human, he'll eventually run out of energy! Rush in, and anyone who kills him will be rewarded with a million taels of silver and promoted three ranks!"

"Whoever captures Liu Rengong will be rewarded with 100,000 strings of cash!"

With the huge reward, all the soldiers gritted their teeth and moved forward with their spears, stabbing at the gate desperately, hoping to force Xiao Yan to retreat so that they could regain control of the situation.

I just don't believe it, this guy is not afraid of death! ?
On the steps, Xiao Yan also parried with the two long swords in his hands. With each rise and fall, several spear heads fell to the ground. He could also take a few steps forward, scaring the spearmen so much that their faces turned pale and they retreated quickly.

But the power of one person is limited after all. In less than a moment, groups of yamen soldiers were once again blood-thirsty and rushed up the stairs desperately. Finally, they grabbed a foothold at the gate.

This time they learned their lesson. Most of them surrounded and killed Xiao Yan, while the rest just went to capture Liu Rengong.

As long as the latter is caught, these people will have no chance to cause trouble.

When the city gates are closed, a hundred people will not be able to kill this man.

Then one thousand people, ten thousand people!

Under the military formation, this guy can be piled to death!
Fuck him!
The general also became a little furious, and kept dispatching men to rush in, only regretting that he had not hacked Xiao Yan to death with his sword.

In the crowd, Xiao Yan waved his long sword in both hands, and felt cold light coming at him everywhere. But he remained calm, with the sword attached to the blade. Every time it hit, the opponent would be chopped to death.

Blood spurted out, and this time he had no chance to avoid it, and his Taoist robe was gradually stained red by blood.

But no one noticed that his eyes, which were originally one black and one blue, had gradually turned ink-black.

There was only black mist lingering in the entire eye socket.

Under the long corridor, Liu Rengong had nowhere to hide and cried loudly, ready to surrender.

Several bad guys were extremely anxious and were determined to save Xiao Yan even at the risk of being seriously injured.

Because in their sight, the latter was completely surrounded by the crowd, and even his entire figure could not be seen.

……

In my ears, the sound of fighting filled the air.

In Xiao Yan's sight, he seemed to see a sea of ​​blood, with waves of blood surging and hitting the shore again and again.

At the same time, a surging, yet more brutal and crazy killing intent slowly emerged from his heart.

It is becoming an unstoppable trend.

【warn!warn! 】

[Hope the host can adjust his own balance as soon as possible to avoid falling into a state of obsession...]

[Warning is invalid, the balance is being destroyed]

【10%…30%…45%…49%…】

[Attention, the host has reached the critical value]

……

"Good disciple, kill them."

"On this earth, you and I will become saints."

A dark and bewitching voice slowly sounded in his mind, as if a bloody hand had raised a butcher knife for him.

Xiao Yan's expression gradually became ferocious. He couldn't help but whisper hoarsely: "Kill..."

In the crowd, a yamen soldier with red eyes came forward bravely and chopped down with his sword.

But this time, unexpectedly, there was no obstruction at all.

The long sword moved freely and chopped down.

The yamen soldier was so ecstatic that he could no longer suppress his excitement and shouted loudly.

"Kill the traitor! Youzhou..."

But soon, a sound of metal collision suddenly rang out.

Everyone was stunned.

The blade that was heading straight for the head stopped half an inch away from the target under the gaze of countless eyes.

Under the blade, a hand filled with black energy gently grasped the sharp blade.

The next moment, cracking sounds were heard one after another.

Cold sweat instantly broke out on the yamen soldier's face.

He was so frightened that he tried to let go, but his palm seemed to be completely stuck to the handle of the knife and he couldn't let it go.

"Evil demon, he is evil..."

Pieces of broken blades suddenly turned over and suddenly poured into the yamen soldier's mouth, which was opened in fear.

Black air spread, and a hand pushed away a face that was bleeding profusely.

A pair of blood-red eyes slowly appeared.

But soon, the pair of eyes suddenly flashed again and disappeared out of thin air. The next moment, they strangely appeared behind the crowd.

Outside, the general frowned, not knowing why the crowd stopped fighting.

But he had just heard clearly the words "Those who kill the thieves..."

Thinking of this, he strode forward.

But immediately, the general's pupils shrank suddenly.

A bloody hand reached out and patted his face.

"This time, kill as many as you like."

…………

The Saker Falcon made the cry of an eagle, but it kept circling in the sky and did not dare to land.

There seems to be a great terror beneath the ground.

In the Jiedushi's mansion, several bad guys stood there in shock, not daring to say a word.

Liu Rengong had already fainted.

Only the old Taoist with gray hair and beard was kneeling in the middle of the hall, kowtowing continuously and muttering to himself in despair.

"Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder Voice Universal Transformation Heavenly Lord..."

The muffled sound of horse hooves swept in from the long street.

"Military envoy, Wang Yanzhang is late..."

"Yes."

Hundreds of riders were originally full of murderous intent, but now they all pulled the reins hard, and a chill suddenly ran down their backs.

Wang Yanzhang's throat tightened and he held back his voice, not even daring to breathe deeply.

In their sight.

Inside and outside the Jiedushi Mansion, on and off the steps, there were corpses everywhere, and blood spurted everywhere. The ground was covered with blood and flesh, gurgling into a river of blood, mixed with rainwater and flowing down the long street.

Outside the spacious gate of the mansion, a mountain of corpses had been piled up.

Among them were broken blades, torn armor, and broken corpses.

The gurgling river of blood originates from here.

On the pile of corpses, a figure sat casually.

A blood-stained Tang sword was stuck at his side, still emitting murderous aura.

Time almost froze at this moment, and Wang Yanzhang tightened his throat and called out in a low voice.

"Military envoy?"

Among the countless corpses, Xiao Yan looked up when he heard the words and slowly opened his pair of ghostly eyes.

Hundreds of horses couldn't help but retreat, making unmistakable neighing sounds.

Fortunately, those eyes slowly regained their calm after a while.

Although there was still a ghostly fog, it was no longer as scary as it was at the beginning.

"Capture Liu Rengong."

Xiao Yan stood up with a knife in hand and took off his blood-stained Taoist robe.

"Enter the camp."

------

Youzhou, West City.

Several riders galloped past in the street leading to the city gate.

Li Xiaoxi was surrounded by people and just kept whipping the horse.

"Damn it! Damn it!"

He kept cursing, "There must be a spy in the city. How did the Liang army know that I was going to leave from the south gate?!"

"Commander-in-chief, why do we still need to leave the city? Although the Liang cavalry has entered the city, there is still an inner city inside the city. Why don't we retreat and defend it?"

"Idiot, you know there's a traitor in the city, do you think I'm not dying fast enough?"

Li Xiaoxi's face was gloomy. He tightly grasped the tiger talisman in his hand and said, "Besides, how many defenders are there in the city? The only way for me to turn the situation around is to take control of Dingbadu as soon as possible!"

The few riders didn't dare to refute and could only follow closely.

But at this moment, the sound of footsteps on tiles suddenly came from both sides of the street.

Li Xiaoxi was shocked and without thinking, he pulled a personal soldier over and stood in front of him.

The next moment, a long and narrow knife instantly pierced through the chest of the soldier.

In a dangerous situation, Li Xiaoxi used the inertia to throw the still screaming soldier to the side in an instant.

Then, a figure landed and blocked their way.

Several riders were horrified and pulled the reins hard.

"Who are you?!"

But soon, seeing that this person was neither male nor female and had makeup on his face that made him look like a shemale, Li Xiaoxi became furious.

"Whoever he is, kill him!"

The few riders did not dare to disobey the order and rode away on their horses.

But before they could charge forward, Li Xiaoxi turned his horse and rushed straight towards the city gate.

Behind, Ji Ruxue leaned out from the roof, frowning slightly.

Li Xiaoxi quickly used his identity to get the guards at the city gate to open the gate and escape.

At the same time, heavy defenders rushed down from the city walls and surrounded them.

"Oh, this kid is really afraid of death."

Shangguan Yunque dispatched several cavalrymen with a few moves, picked up his "Shangguan Yunque Knife", and urged: "Let's go, don't get entangled with them."

Ji Ruxue hesitated for a moment and then stepped back.

……

The slightly biting night wind blew on Li Xiaoxi's face as the horse's speed increased.

The horse's hooves flew, stepping over the wet mud on the ground.

In sight, a huge camp has been erected.

In the meantime, torches were everywhere, revealing a strong and fierce atmosphere.

almost.

It only takes a quarter of an hour...

No, half a quarter of an hour!
Li Xiaoxi held the tiger talisman tightly in his hand, and ran quickly, surrounded by several guards at the city gate, with his eyes fixed on the front.

But soon, an arrow shot out and pierced through his back.

He choked on a mouthful of blood and, using his last bit of strength, looked back in disbelief.

Afterwards, hundreds of riders came slowly, their helmet tassels bobbing up and down in the wind.

A huge flag flutters in the wind.

Right in front of him, Xiao Yan looked indifferent and handed the longbow to the side.

Wang Yanzhang's face was filled with awe and he leaned forward to take it.

In the long night, the horn sounded.

"Welcome, Youzhou Jiedushi."
