Chapter 20 A Sweep
The cold light flashed.
Murderous aura permeates.
Before those heads fell to the ground, Pei Yuan slashed in his hand and gently swung it into a series of intimidating sword lights.
Others rotated with the light of the sword, and they seemed to have merged into the long sword that was killed by the dead soul. Many yamen runners did not see his figure at all. The only thing they could see was a light. When the light of the sword came to them, they had no time to react.
One after another, figures fell to the ground one after another.
The thin mist seemed to have been stained with a layer of blood.
In just a few breaths, almost half of the thirty-six people brought by Zhang Zhen died.
The cold light dissipated, Pei Yuan stopped and appeared in the field again.
"Kill you!"
A tiger-like roar came out, and a detective behind Pei Yuan had red eyes. Whether it was the extreme hatred or the extreme fear, he trembled with his body, waved the steel knife in his palm, and slashed hard at his neck.
Pei Yuan didn't look back, and threw the long sword in his palm backhand, carrying the powerful blade, instantly pierced the constable's chest. A huge force pulled his body back and flew back. After knocking over two companions, he was nailed into a big tree with no extinction.
The constable was not dead for a while, and he let out a heart-wrenching howl, spreading from afar in the cold and quiet mountain village.
In an instant, the whole village seemed to be bustling with dogs barking, and noises came from the villagers' homes. Some even opened the door and peeked out, but they were afraid and dared not come out to check.
However, the Baiyang Sect's disciples didn't have so much concern. When they heard this scream, they rushed out of the courtyard and rushed over quickly.
The remaining ten yamen runners were already scared at this time. Someone shouted and ran away in a mess.
Pei Yuan arrived first, jumped up, and his body whirled rapidly in the air, like a goshawk preying on a chicken. In an instant, he arrived at the heads of the fastest two people, poked out his claws, grabbed the heads of the two people, and took them off with a slight pick.
"Stop! Whoever escapes will die!"
Pei Yuan suddenly shouted coldly, with a breathtaking power in his voice. In conjunction with the head he was holding with both hands, the bodies of the fleeing yamen runners trembled violently, and their feet seemed to be filled with lead, and their faces were directly in place, with a pale face.
"Tell me, why catch me?"
Pei Yuan threw away his head casually, his eyes turned and looked at Zhang Zhen.
"ah!"
Zhang Zhen's eyes were so bloody that he felt like he fell into the endless abyss nightmare. Wang Yongnian was just an ignorant in the archives, but how should the current situation be explained?
In this world, the lower third grade of martial arts practices the muscles, bones, and membranes. Once you achieve something, you can strengthen the internal organs and nourish the true qi.
This is called practicing a tangible body and obtaining invisible energy.
Zhang Zhen is a sixth-grade martial artist and has cultivated true energy. Such martial arts cultivation is rare in a county. He is usually proud of it, but what level has Pei Yuan shown reached now?
With Zhang Zhen's eyes, he couldn't see through it.
He gritted his teeth tightly, almost spitting out words from the cracks of his teeth, and said with hatred: "Don't think about it..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Zhen felt a flash in front of him. He stabbed him almost instinctively, but he had just stabbed into the air and the blade was steadily clamped by two fingers.
Click!
The two fingers gently clamped, and broke the weapon that had followed Zhang Zhen for more than ten years. Then half of the blade slashed down, and the light of the knife lit up.
With a "chi" sound, it was like a thin piece of paper cracking, followed by a wide palm falling to the ground.
Zhang Zhen's eyes were dull, and he stared blankly at his right hand and his wrist was broken. The incision was as smooth as a mirror, and no blood was oozing out.
After a while, the severe pain just came up. Zhang Zhen screamed and covered his broken mouth. His whole body seemed to be drained and he collapsed.
"Why arrest me?"
Pei Yuan repeated the question, looked at Zhang Zhen’s other hand calmly, and said lightly: “If you don’t say anything, your other hand will be gone. I’m afraid you can only beg for food in the future.”
"No! I say, I say!" Zhang Zhen's face may have never been so pale for more than thirty years, and he begged in a tone.
After a moment, Pei Yuan finally understood the truth.
"My body... 'Wang Yongnian' actually has such an identity? The son of the former third prince Xia Bai?"
"Have your parents and relatives been beheaded by the Dakang court?"
For a moment, Pei Yuan's thoughts were floating and sighed softly: "Since that's the case, let me avenge you!"
Although there is no need to fulfill the original owner's obsession, since he has taken away the body of "Wang Yongnian", it is reasonable to avenge him.
What's more, even if he doesn't take revenge, with this level of identity, he will still be regarded as a thorn in his side that must be removed by the court.
Of course, he wouldn't worry about this.
On the contrary, he hopes that the more experts he comes to deal with, the better. Only in this way can he accumulate more abundant resources in this world.
What is the biggest gap between Pei Yuan and those top figures in the new era?
It is not a martial art, nor a rare treasure, but a time, thirty-three years!
Lift up and step on it!
Snap!
Zhang Zhen's neck was directly cut off, and his face was still filled with astonishment and confusion.
"I didn't say I won't kill you, did I?"
Pei Yuan understood and explained, not knowing if Zhang Zhen could hear it. He raised his eyes and looked in a direction. Bai Yang Sect and others came late at this time.
In fact, it’s not that they came slowly, mainly because Pei Yuan killed too quickly.
Seeing the scene with blood and corpses everywhere, the Taoist priests and disciples of Baiyang Cult were all pounding their eyelids, gasping for cold air, and a look of horror appeared on their faces.
They had never seen the dead, but they killed so many people at once, and they were all officials, which was enough to shock them.
The little Taoist priest Zhichang looked around and saw the few officials who seemed to be so scared that they didn't dare to move. He took a deep breath and looked at Pei Yuan, but he was a little afraid to confirm: "Brother Wang? Are you brother Wang? Are these people all killed by you?"
Pei Yuan did not answer this question and said to himself: "Master Zhichang, for the sake of past friendship, I would like to advise you to leave this place of failure as soon as possible. The land will be very uneasy in the future."
After saying that, before Zhichang could reply, Pei Yuan flapped his arms and felt like a pair of wings were inserted on his body. The strong wind suddenly swept, causing him to fly away.
This mountain village is only more than twenty miles away from Hongshan County. With Pei Yuan's speed, it naturally took no long to reach the city gate. The low city wall, which is more than one meter long, could not form an obstacle at all, and it crossed like a flat ground.
After a moment, Pei Yuan stood outside the county government office, looked up slightly, and looked at the four gold-plated characters "Hongshan County Bureau" above.
At this time, the sky was almost completely dark, but the county office was different from usual, with bright lights and many people on duty.
Pei Yuan thought about it for a moment and knew that he was waiting for Zhang Zhen to arrest him and return.
"Bold! Who are you? Do you dare to sneak into the official office? Is it a waste of your life?"
Pei Yuan just stood outside the door for a while and immediately attracted the attention of several yamen runners, one of whom scolded him for his evil deeds.
There were nearly a hundred constables in Hongshan County’s yamen, and Zhang Zhen took away 36 people. There were still many police officers in the county office.
"You misunderstood. I'm looking at it openly. Also, are you County Magistrate Lin here?"
Pei Yuan smiled and said.
"The county master is hosting guests at his residence. Come again next day if you have anything to do!" Pei Yuan's calm attitude made several yamen runners a little wild, and he calmed down a little bit of anger.
Chapter completed!
