The thunderous strike caught everyone by surprise.
The enemy was killed first, and the generals who followed him lost their backbone and did not dare to act rashly.
The soldiers guarding the city also watched helplessly as the city lord fell in mid-air. The next moment, the city gate collapsed, and a crack opened in the city tower.
"Don't you, Dongzhou, want to start a war?" As soon as a general finished speaking, he felt an invisible pressure falling on his shoulders.
"Start a war?" Yuan Wen glanced over with cold eyes and suddenly smiled, his smile was gentle and elegant, but the aura emitted by the magic pen he waved in his hand was filled with a biting chill.
"It seems that I really slept for too long, and you don't even remember the original surname of this land!"
The spiritual light swept across, and the general was shattered into pieces. The other generals looked shocked and used their spiritual pens one after another, but in the next second, they were cut down in the air.
Yuan Wen waved his hand, and the city defense formation was easily broken. He led a few people to appear above the city, looking down at all the living beings below.
"I am the Lord of Yunji. Today I am declaring war to take back my Yuan family's territory."
The sound was not loud, but it was enough for everyone in the city to hear clearly. Then, Yuanfu Qi's power was fully displayed, and even the wind seemed to be imprisoned, causing the entire city to fall into deathly silence.
The generals who arrived later froze in mid-air, not daring to move. They all looked at the man in rich clothes with awe.
The power of the Yuan Mansion reached heaven and earth. They knew that if they went up, they would die, so they could only cower and wait for the verdict.
However, the killing order was delayed until the green-haired lion stood up and roared: "The master who brought this news to you, the real master of the Yunji Dynasty, is back!"
Looking at the man in rich clothes who looked like a god descending from the earth, the generals were stunned for a moment before thinking of escaping.
At the same time, figures kept flying out of the city, fleeing in all directions.
"Do I allow you to escape?" Yuan Wen's words were very soft, but they hit these people's hearts like a heavy hammer. Everyone froze in mid-air, daring not to move.
"die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the golden light spread out from the spiritual pen and spread out like ripples, killing all the fleeing monks.
Then, he gathered his spiritual power, and a strange phenomenon appeared in the world. Golden thunder fell from the air and struck the city.
But in the blink of an eye, this small town turned into a sea of fire.
Xuan Ye looked up and saw that the ground was devastated and wailing everywhere. It was unknown how many innocent people died in this attack.
"Wouldn't it be too much to just establish power?" He thought to himself and clenched his fists, not to stop it, but to wonder if he would be so indifferent to life if he had this kind of power.
"Beast, I'm going to fight you!"
Following the roar, an aurora shot out, and with it came a middle-aged man. However, before he could get close, he was cut in half by Yuan Wen's spiritual power.
"Dad! Don't abandon your child!"
Xuan Ye looked at the young man shouting below, holding a bloody woman in his arms, looking at the corpse falling from the air with a desperate look, and the hatred in the other person's eyes pierced his heart.
Perhaps in the eyes of the young man, standing together with Yuan Wen was equivalent to being a villain.
After a while, several more figures stood up. They were not very strong, and some were only in the clear stage, but they dared to climb onto the roof and throw out the glyphs to attack Yuan Wen.
This made Yuan Wen very dissatisfied. He pinched the magic formula with both hands, and the magic pen reappeared and the golden light shot straight into the sky. The next moment, the golden formation unfolded from mid-air, covering the entire city.
Xuan Ye felt the coercion in the formation, which was enough to make one's heart tremble with fear. If this blow continued, not many people in the small town would be able to survive.
He looked at the city. Those who stood up had sad faces, but no regrets in their eyes. They knew they would die, but they still moved forward.
As the golden light became stronger and stronger, the entire city was shrouded in golden light. If it hadn't been for the electric snake that accidentally flashed by, showing its power to destroy the world, it would have been regarded as an auspicious sign.
With a muffled sound, the golden light fell, and hundreds of electric snakes that penetrated the sky and the earth fell. The world screamed at this moment. Where the golden light fell, there was nothing but scorched earth.
Xuan Ye just watched quietly like this. A city was completely reduced to wasteland in just half a stick of incense. Yuan Wen, who did this, had a demure look on his face at this moment, as if he was not massacring the people in the city.
Thousands of people were crushed to death by a group of ants.
He knows that as one's cultivation level increases, one's temperament will become indifferent. But for a person who kills an entire city with just a raise of his hand, what's the difference between a person and an evil spirit?
"Master, I believe those old generals scattered all over the place should be able to hear the movement and will come to join them soon." Qingqiu said respectfully.
Yuan Wen said a faint "Yeah", put his hands behind his back, and looked at the vast world, "I think the imperial capital will also react. Before that, let's find a secluded place to wait."
"In my opinion, Jiahou Pass is good." Qingqiu suggested.
"Jiahou Pass..." Yuan Wen seemed to be thinking about the long past, his eyes gradually widened, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.
"Jiahou Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Only we know the secret passage inside. Once the people gather and guard there, we will surely be able to establish a firm foundation."
"Then let's go to Jiahou Pass." Yuan Wen activated his spiritual power, wrapping up a few people and speeding away.
Xuan Ye looked at the city that was still billowing with thick smoke, gradually getting further and further away, silently.
…
Half a day later, in the imperial capital of Yunzhou, inside a magnificent palace.
After the middle-aged man on the throne listened to the report of the general below, a pair of eagle eyes flashed with cold light, but he soon regained his composure and remained silent.
However, all the officials below had angry expressions on their faces, but the people sitting there did not speak, and they did not dare to speak first.
You must know that in the entire Yunzhou, in addition to the imperial power, there are ten generals who protect the country. These ten can be regarded as the foundation of Yunzhou. Since the superiors are silent, they are waiting for these people to take the initiative to ask for help.
Seeing that everyone was still, a general wearing a golden armor robe came out and said respectfully: "The remnants of the old dynasty still dare to show their faces. Your Majesty, let me lead people to destroy them!"
Yan Lin, ranked fourth among the top ten generals to protect the country, was also one of the heroes who overthrew the old dynasty. With his intervention, the officials felt at ease.
At the same time, a young man wearing a purple-patterned robe also came out, "Father, I am willing to go with General Yan to wipe out the remaining evildoers!"
The middle-aged man looked at the young man with a look of relief on his face, "Xian'er, you have just entered Banyuan. Don't act rashly. Listen to General Yan."
"Kid, remember, thank you, father!" Lin Xian looked happy, knowing that he was willing to give him a chance, but this move made several other princes dissatisfied.
"Fourth brother, my father is right, don't be too happy about your achievements. That remnant can easily destroy a city. I'm afraid his cultivation is not bad. Even if General Yan is a general who protects the country, it will not be easy to deal with it."
Lin Xian snorted coldly and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, "I won't bother the second emperor brother. There is no doubt about General Yan's strength. My father is willing to let me go with him, so he is naturally confident in my strength."
"Okay, okay, there's no need to argue. Xian'er, Yanlin, you should set off as soon as possible to prevent the remnants from causing more trouble. If you do this well, you will definitely be rewarded when you come back."
Lin Chong glanced at the other princes and sighed, "You guys should also learn a little, so that I can save some worries!"
These words made several princes lower their heads one after another, looking at each other and not daring to interrupt.
After Lin Xian saluted, he followed Yan Lin and left the palace first. After walking out of the gate, he looked relaxed and said with a smile: "General Yan, why don't you count the men and horses first, and I will go back to the house to get some useful treasures."
"Your Highness King Xian, I think you don't need to take action in this battle. Time is urgent, so we should set off immediately."
Lin Xian had long known that Yan Lin was stubborn and stubborn for the sake of being old-fashioned, so he curled his lips helplessly, "Then just follow what the general said."
…
At the other end, Xuan Ye and others have arrived outside Jiahou Pass. This place is a mountain city, hidden among the mountains, connecting the east and west intersections of Yunzhou.
Yuan Wen looked at the ancient city wall, but he did not go on a killing spree like he did in Xiaoyucheng. Instead, after thinking for a moment, he turned around and flew towards the mountain peak on one side.
Qingqiu looked puzzled, "Master, why don't you enter the city through a secret passage? You can definitely kill the traitors guarding the city by surprise!"
"It is easy to seize the city, but it is useless to seize it. All we need to do is show our face and let the world know that we are here. When the old generals gather together, we will enter the Jiahou Pass." Yuan Wen landed on the top of a peak and took out the jade cup again.
.
Xuan Ye naturally knew what it meant. After filling a cup of blood, he took Jiang Ningyue aside. Although the spring water was effective, it could not prevent the poison in her body from taking effect.
He had been on the road these past few days, and he took the opportunity to bleed her and refine some elixirs for healing.
Speaking of which, he was also poisoned that day, but after being sucked away by Yuan Wen and being roasted by the demonic fire, the poison mysteriously disappeared. Although it was a bit strange, it wasn't a bad thing.
When nothing happened, Xuan Ye went to check the demon fire in his body again. It was still the same wisp of fire heart, but after being nourished by the demon blood, it seemed to have become a little more transparent.
He tried several times but couldn't mobilize it, so he had to give up temporarily. Besides, this small wisp was not enough to make medicine.
Several people rested here for two days. Yuan Wen also went to Jiahou Pass to show up. However, after waiting for two days, those old generals did not arrive. Instead, the crusade from the imperial capital arrived.
In mid-air, Yuan Wen stood alone in the strong wind, with his hands behind his back. Even if he faced hundreds of people, he was not vulnerable at all.
"Are you a remnant of the old dynasty?" Lin Xian glanced at Xuan Ye and the others on the ground, then looked at Yuan Wen, wondering: "Are you the only one?"
"His Royal Highness King Xian, this person is not simple, and his strength may not be inferior to mine. You should retreat to the back, I will handle it here." Yan Lin reminded.
"General Yan, you are making too much fuss. There is only one person on the other side, and you are here, what will happen?" Lin Xian curled his lips, "If you ask me, he is crazy. There is only one person, and he dares to declare war on me, Yunzhou.
