Chapter 316: Plotting to Persecute the Good and Loyal! (1)
Swish!
Without waiting for Jia Shangshu’s reply, the thin figure soared into the sky.
Jia Shangshu expended a lot of true energy to fly into the air.
However, not a trace of true energy leaked out from the thin figure. On the contrary, worldly energy spiraled and danced around him.
A faintly discernible shadow of a hungry wolf seemed to overlap with the thin figure and dispersed the airflow.
!!
It easily carried a body and soared into the sky like a rocket.
“It’s the third-grade expert guarding the Jia Family!”
Teng Hejing’s pupils constricted. He quickly turned to look at Su Jingxing. “Sen…”
Before he could say “Senior”, he froze on the spot.
Because Su Jingxing was gone.
Teng Hejing didn’t know when he had disappeared either.
He hasn’t esca…
Boom!
A clap of thunder suddenly came from the sky, and the sound of m.u.f.fled thunder echoed through the world.
Crack! Crack!
Boom!
The stunned Teng Hejing looked up and saw a thick bolt of lightning shooting through the air above the array formation. Like a giant python, it bent and refracted from top to bottom, striking a figure.
The thin figure possessed by the wolf phantom shuddered and fell from the sky.
The worldly energy wrapped around him was dispersed, and the overlapping shadows of the hungry wolves were instantly shattered.
Su Jingxing stood on Thunderbolt and floated in the air. He looked down at an old man who wanted to rush into the air and leave the trapping array formation.
Thunderbolt released the power as a spirit weapon and struck the old man. It wasn’t over yet.
A third-grade martial artist would not die so easily.
Su Jingxing was already prepared. After the lightning struck, his true essence surged and wrapped around his fist. He aimed at the old man and threw the Hundred Steps Reigning Fist.
He released a hundred years of true essence cultivation!
Once a hundred years of true essence cultivation erupted, the terrifying power produced would continuously stack as the attack swooped down.
During the stacking process, it shattered all the air and plowed a vacuum in the air.
The old man who had just been struck by lightning suddenly tensed up. His eyes lit up as he roared.
A hungry wolf materialized and left his body to float above his head.
His true essence was like water, sticking to his body and forming the appearance of an armor.
Stopping in midair, the old man unleashed his aura and shouted as if venting his anger.
But…
Bang!
The fist imprint that almost shattered everything landed, and the Martial Art True Intent of the hungry wolf that appeared exploded on the spot.
His protective true essence that suffered the second wave of attacks also failed to hold on and was also broken in a second.
The fist imprint that still carried terrifying power struck the old man’s chest.
Countless beams of energy shot out, and the old man’s chest caved in. Blood splattered and the crisp sound of bones breaking echoed through the air.
However, the fist imprint that swooped down did not dissipate just like that. Instead, it continued to bombard until it pierced through the old man’s body. Only then did the remaining force land in the Jia Family’s residence with inertia, blowing up a building and causing the ground to collapse.
Dust, debris, and broken rocks flew above the ruins.
Strong winds blew and energy stirred.
The sky and ground were dead silent.
Jia Shangshu was stunned.
Everyone in the Jia Family was dumbfounded.
No one shouted anymore. They were either lying down, standing, or lying down. They forgot about the pain in their bodies and gaped at the old man’s corpse that was slowly descended from the sky.
A stiff corpse with a huge hole in its chest and back!
Dead…
The old man from the capital, a third-grade expert, died just like that.
His Martial Art True Intent was shattered by a single punch, his protective true essence was broken, and his body was penetrated!
Who is it?
Who exactly is this figure floating in the sky?!
Jia Shangshu was shocked and terrified.
Teng Hejing, on the other hand, was extremely excited. He laughed loudly in his excitement. “Hahaha, everyone, listen up. Enter the array formation to kill the enemy. Go!”
Swoosh!
The sound of rushing wind could be heard.
Teng Hejing was the first to rush into the array formation and attack Jia Shangshu.
Wearing a jade pendant on his waist, he was like a fish jumping into water when he pa.s.sed through the light barrier of the array formation that connected ground and sky.
A glow appeared on the surface of the jade pendant. It wrapped around his body and he easily pa.s.sed through the light barrier.
“Kill!”
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
Behind him, the experts from the Martial Suppression Office and the Prefecture Army entered the array formation with similar jade pendants.
On one side, morale and fighting spirit was high.
The other side was terrified and their morale was nearly non-existent.
As soon as the battle began, it was one-sided.
The members of the Jia Family were forced to retreat step by step. Pleading and miserable cries sounded non-stop.
The people from the Martial Suppression Office and the Prefecture Army swung their blades and punched out, creating b.l.o.o.d.y paths.
Soon, the battle ended.
The ground and ruins of the Jia Family’s compound were covered in blood. Dead people were everywhere.
Jia Shangshu, whose face was as pale as a sheet and had lost a hand, lay in a pool of blood, laughing bitterly.
“Teng Hejing, you’re ruthless. You destroyed my Jia Family today, but you’ll still die tomorrow! Hahaha…” Jia Shangshu laughed weakly.
“I’m sorry to disappoint you. Not only will I not die, I’ll live even better and advance step by step to the third-grade.”
Teng Hejing stepped on Jia Shangshu’s chest and grinned.
Then, he raised his head and looked around. He shouted, “Today, the Jia Family has betrayed humanity and colluded with the barbarians. They tried to wreak havoc in Anyang and harm the citizens of the Yu Nation. They have committed a heinous crime that cannot be forgiven! As a member of the Anyang Martial Suppression Office, I, Teng Hejing, am willing to work for the people of the city and annihilate the Jia Family to recover the peace of the Yu Nation and the integrity of humanity!”
Whoosh!
The other people from the Martial Suppression Office and the Prefecture Army followed suit.
In the sky, Su Jingxing raised his eyebrows.
The commotion in the Jia Family’s compound was huge.
Pillars of light shooting into the sky, cannons, and screams.
It was impossible for the people from the other factions in Anyang City not to pay attention.
At this moment, hundreds of people had gathered around the Jia Family’s residence.
They were all representatives of the major factions, either openly or secretly, and were looking in the direction of the Jia Family’s residence.
Teng Hejing’s words clarified his motive for this operation.
It was not a random ma.s.sacre, nor was it over a grudge.
Instead, it was to find traitors of humanity!
To put it bluntly, it was a righteous cause!
…
“Heh! Heh! Hahaha…”
When Minister Jia heard this, he smiled weakly and said, “My… my Jia Family colluded with the barbarians. Where’s… the evidence? Teng Hejing, where’s the evidence!”
The other members of the Jia Family who had either surrendered or were severely injured were stunned. Then, they followed closely behind and shouted angrily.
“Teng Hejing, where’s the evidence!”
“Teng Hejing, where is the evidence that we colluded with the barbarians?!”
“Without evidence, you are framing and plotting to persecute the good and loyal!”
“Teng Hejing, you destroyed the Jia Family for a personal grudge today. We admit that we are weaker than you, but tomorrow, everyone in the world will remember your ugly face. Even if you die, you will be condemned by posterity!”
“Teng Hejing, you will die a horrible death!”
“…”
The aggrieved and furious roars of the Jia Family grew louder and louder.
Outside the manor, the expressions of the people from the major factions in Anyang City differed when they heard this.
“Haha!”
When Teng Hejing heard this, he raised his head and laughed out loud. “Evidence, is it? I’ll show you!”
“Men, dig out the hidden barbarians!”
“Yes…” The group of Martial Suppression Office members received the order and quickly dispersed to search for the barbarians.
However…
“Bad news, Commander. The barbarians… the barbarians have disappeared.”
What?
