Seeing the explosion in Night City and feeling the continuous infuriating shock waves coming from the distance, Ni Qiang felt a little panicked. He already had a bad premonition - such a powerful infuriating shock wave could not be a person.
The only possibility is that the Thunder Blade encountered a powerful assassin sent by the demons!
Therefore, it was too late to tell the Wuji Demon Emperor and Han Ziqian, so Ni Qiang led his 20,000 guard team and headed straight for the back mountain of Night City.
…
Bang!
A loud bang broke the silence.
In the mountains behind Night City, surrounded by a mess and ruins, Taiyi Immortal Lord stood in front of him, somewhat stunned.
After using the Invincible Slash with Shuangshuang, both of them's clothes were a little tattered, but Taiyi Immortal Lord was not shocked by this - his sword was actually broken into two pieces!
This is incredible, his sword is a peerless sword!
Taiyi Immortal Lord's eyes fell on the broken sword of Thunder Blade. After observing it for a long time, his eyes suddenly trembled, and then he said in surprise: "Heaven-cutting sword!?"
"This is the Heaven-Destroying Sword of Xuanming Sword Emperor, how come it is in your hand!" Immortal Master Taiyi said in surprise.
Lei Ren chuckled and said: "Don't you know that Xuanming Sword Emperor is my master? He taught me this Heaven-Destroying Sword. Old man Taiyi, there are still many things you don't know, but,
None of this matters anymore, today is the day you die!"
"Invincible Slash!"
The thunder blade repeated its old trick, and while speaking, he unleashed another invincible slash. Seeing the storm of true energy suddenly gathering in the air, Taiyi Immortal Master's expression changed drastically, and he immediately understood that he might not really be the one anymore.
The young man in front of him was his opponent.
As for the move of Invincible Slash, Taiyi Xianzun knew it very well. It should be that after the thunder blade killed Luo Tiancai, he got the sword recipe of Invincible Slash from Luo Tiancai.
Phew!
Before Invincible Slash's true energy could be condensed, Taiyi Immortal Lord instantly turned into a streak of light and fled into the distance without making a sound. However, looking like that, he looked a little embarrassed.
Standing there, hesitating for a moment, Lei Ren did not jump in pursuit.
Firstly, he had consumed too much just now, and Taiyi Immortal Lord, he would have to deal with it sooner or later; secondly, Taiyi Immortal Lord was not slower than him, and when he caught up, he would not know where he had gone. If he was hit
Taiyi Immortal Lord's trap was ambushed by the Dark Demon King and Dugu Wuji. I am afraid that his life is really in danger.
Boom!
Shortly after Taiyi Immortal Lord escaped, a large force arrived from a distance. Ni Qiang took the lead. When he saw Thunder Blade, his face finally showed a look of joy. He flew over and said, "Your Majesty, are you okay?"
"It's okay." Lei Ren said.
"What happened just now?"
"Oh, there were two reckless guys who wanted to assassinate me. But I easily took care of them." As he said that, Thunder Blade pointed at a headless corpse not far away.
When Ni Qiang saw the head of the corpse, he immediately said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for killing the traitor of the previous dynasty. From now on, the rebellion will disappear."
"Haha, I just killed him. There is nothing worthy of congratulations. Let's go." Lei Ren acted calmly and turned around to leave.
Ni Qiang followed closely behind, his face naturally filled with great joy. He walked a few steps and asked curiously: "Your Majesty, you said there were two killers. Why did I only see one corpse? Where is there another killer?"
"
Lei Ren said: "Oh, it's an old man named Taiyi Immortal Lord. I beat him away."
Ni Qiang: "..."
…
According to the attack date set by the Wuji Demon King, it was just five days ago and the weather was really clear.
On this day, the day after Lei Ren killed the seventh Immortal Emperor Xuan Wen, the army of the Lei Dynasty began to launch a fierce attack on the sacred city!
At this time, the main force of the Lei family army, the demon clan troops and the Xihuang sect alliance are all in high spirits. Because they have already announced that after the demon clan is destroyed, they will be based on the results of this war.
Performance, reward based on merit.
Everyone knows that the current Lei Dynasty has basically unified the world of cultivation. In other words, after this war to destroy the demons is over, there may not be any major wars in the next decades or even hundreds of years.
Therefore, military achievements are easy to achieve in troubled times. Therefore, every soldier showed a state of not fearing death at this time, and his morale was high.
However, the Holy City is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack. In addition, there is a powerful demonic energy shield outside the city. After a day of busy work, the Holy City was not able to be captured.
On this day, it can only be said that the two sides will win or lose, but after the demon troops hid in the sacred city, the Lei Dynasty's troops were somewhat helpless.
A strong attack is naturally one way, but such casualties can be expected to be very large, and Lei Ren does not want to do this.
Especially during this day's war, Lei Ren saw that the people of the demon clan were actually the same as the human race. They were all the injured party in the war. Except for the demon clan's troops, the ordinary demon clan's
The common people are not unforgivable.
Therefore, Thunder Blade, who originally planned to destroy the demon clan and kill all the demons, relented at this time.
It was indeed hateful for the Dark Demon King to destroy the barbarians, and it was not an exaggeration to kill them with a thousand cuts. However, in order to take revenge, he wiped out all the demons. This seemed fair, but to ordinary people of the demon tribe, they had nothing.
I didn’t do it, and I even hoped to live in peace with the monsters and humans. Is it fair to them?
This is what Lei Ren is thinking about.
In the end, during the discussion with Chen Chao, Han Ziqian, Mu Zongtian, Wuji Demon Emperor and Fire Phoenix, Lei Ren's statement won the approval of everyone except Wuji Demon Emperor.
The Wuji Demon Emperor naturally hopes to destroy the Demon Clan, their generational enemy, but after explaining it from the standpoint of ordinary Demon Clan people, Huo Fenghuang, Han Ziqian and others were impressed by Thunder Blade's magnanimity.
"His Majesty the Thunder Emperor is the most wise king I have ever seen in history."
"Repaying evil with kindness, sir, is what emperors throughout the ages have done!"
Han Ziqian and Chen Chao were full of excited praises, and even Feng Huo nodded frequently and agreed with Lei Ren's opinion: "The war has caused countless casualties to ordinary people, and if we slaughter them all again, we will only be punished by God.
Back then, the demons and the Fairy Dynasty joined forces to destroy the barbarians. Now, the divine punishment has come. This is retribution! Your Majesty will not repeat the same mistakes, and the Lei Dynasty will be in peace and stability for a long time."
Lei Ren nodded, then changed the subject and said: "So, if this is the case, do we have any other way to capture the Holy City besides storming the Holy City?"
"have!"
As soon as Lei Ren finished speaking, Han Ziqian took over the words.
