The imperial capital is Yanjing, and the western suburbs are Jiaye City.
Jiaye City is the acropolis of Yanjing. Seven hundred years ago, in order to resist the invasion of the Wu clan, the Yan Dynasty spent huge manpower and material resources to build three fortresses and acropolis around Yanjing to strengthen the defense capabilities of the imperial capital.
For thousands of years, the elite legions of the Wu Clan have attacked Yanjing City several times, and the acropolis, including Jiaye City, has played a very important role, effectively containing the Wu Clan's troops.
Jiaye City is the largest of the three acropolises, with a population of more than 100,000. It is less than twenty miles away from Yanjing and can be reached in a blink of an eye by a quick horse. It is the bridgehead of the western defense of the imperial capital.
After hundreds of years of development, Jaye City is now a very prosperous city.
In addition, it is also the ancestral residence of the Chu family and the location of the famous Chu family helmsman.
The ancestors of the Chu family retreated bravely when the Yan Dynasty was established. In order to reward the Chu family for their contributions, Yan Taizu granted a large area of land around Jiaye City to the Chu family and allowed the Chu family to establish the Chu Clan and continue to serve Dayan.
From then on, the Chu family turned from bright to dark, and no longer involved the upper echelons of the empire. However, through continuous development and growth, the Chu family gained great power and became a sharp sword in the hands of the Dayan royal family in the past dynasties.
Power and power are the basis of all ambitions. In the past hundred years, the Truman family has gradually become more powerful. The Yan royal family can use it easily, but they have to worry about whether their hands will be cut by the knife in their hands.
However, under the huge threat from the Youyuan Witch Clan, many conflicts were covered up. The powerful supernatural powers possessed by the Chu Clan were enough to make the Dayan Royal Family dare not act rashly. Therefore, many Chu clan members became increasingly arrogant and regarded Jiaye City as
For your own prohibition!
It is spring and the flowers are blooming. Jiaye City is also a prosperous scene. There is an endless stream of business travelers entering and leaving the city gate. The avenue leading to the center of the city is bustling with people.
Ta-ta-ta!
Suddenly, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from the end of the long street.
There was a commotion in the crowd, and someone shouted at the top of his voice: "Everyone, get out of the way, Truman is out of the city!"
Hearing this sound, everyone on the street, whether they were pedestrians, business travelers or hawkers, fled in the left and right directions. In an instant, there was chaos, screams and shouts.
In just a moment, the streets that were once crowded with people were basically cleared, and dozens of knights were seen galloping towards them, sweeping through the long street like a strong wind, without any regard for the possibility of trampling on pedestrians.
At this moment, under the eaves of a shop near the city gate, a child of five or six years old suddenly squeezed out of the crowd and rushed to the street to grab a wooden top that was rolling on the ground.
Everyone who witnessed this scene was shocked and started shouting.
"Come back quickly, it's dangerous!"
"Whose child is going to die!"
The child was ignorant. He only grabbed the toys on the ground and did not notice the cavalry galloping dozens of steps away. He even turned a deaf ear to the shouts of others.
The knight rushing at the front also saw the child not far away, but he did not make any evasive or stopping actions. A ferocious smile appeared on the corner of his lips, and his horse speed became faster and faster.
People hiding on both sides of the street showed unbearable expressions. They seemed to have seen the tragic scene of children being trampled to pieces. Such things have happened in Jiaye City, and the victim can only get a few taels of silver compensation at most.
Seeing the war horses getting closer and closer, suddenly a gray shadow flashed at the city gate, and the child was picked up from the ground!
Everyone saw that the person who came to the rescue was a young man. He looked to be in his twenties. He was tall and square in appearance. Although he was not very handsome, his resolute face was very angular and very masculine.
Especially the pair of bright eyes are impressive.
He held the child who still didn't know what was going on, and faced the war horse galloping towards him, his expression calm and calm without any panic.
"Go away!"
The leading knight's eyes flashed fiercely, and he swung his riding crop towards the young man!
This Truman Knight has an innate level of cultivation and is also good at using a long whip. He has absolute confidence that he can whip the opponent away directly, letting others see what happens to those who stand in the way.
The long black whip roared through the air, creating a faint shadow, and the tip of the whip seemed to go straight to the vital point like a poisonous snake.
Snap!
What the Truman Knight never expected was that the whip he had gathered 50% of his power would be blocked two feet away from the young man, as if it had hit an invisible wall!
"Eh..."
The Truman Knight was surprised and suddenly felt a bad feeling in his heart.
However, he came to his senses too late. The horse under his crotch was galloping at full speed. The distance of more than ten steps passed by in the blink of an eye. Before he could hold the reins, he had already crashed into it.
Bang!
With a heart-stopping muffled sound, the war horse's head and its front body seemed to have hit an iron wall in front of the young man. The whole thing was smashed to pieces, with blood and flesh flying everywhere. The screams and pain were unbearable.
The wailing sounds were intertwined, making people feel frightened when they heard them.
The knight on the horse reacted quite quickly. At the moment of the collision, he suddenly jumped up into the air, avoiding the same fate as his mount.
However, the seven or eight knights following him were not so lucky. They were caught off guard and bumped into each other one after another, causing them to fall over and scream in agony!
People on both sides of the street were all stunned. The scene in front of them was simply unbelievable. The young man who had saved the child was standing on the spot, and the Truman Knights couldn't move forward even if they bumped into him, as if they were standing tall in front of him.
An insurmountable barrier.
Only a very few warriors can understand that this should be a powerful method performed by a young man, a terrifying power that makes them fear him.
But while they were in awe, they were also slightly excited. You must know that this strong man provoked the Chu family, the Chu family who dominated the sky in Jiaye City and had magical powers!
"court death!"
The Truman warrior from before was shocked and angry. He was still in the air. He threw away his riding crop and drew out his sword. He struck the young man with a condescending sword in the air, and the strong sword energy hit the opponent's vital part.
He is a direct disciple of the Chu family, and he is also a person who is used to being arrogant. Although he knows that the opponent is very powerful, he does not feel that he will be in any danger, so he attacks with all his strength.
You must know that this is Jiaye City, where the Chu Clan is located. Who else dares to offend the Chu family?
The next moment, he saw the young man suddenly looking up at him, his eyes full of contempt and disdain!
A sword energy ten times brighter flew into the sky! (To be continued...)
