Chapter 1700 - 1700 Zhan huayue (1)
The small metal bird was also not in a hurry to fly away. It merely emitted “chirping” sounds if Tang Zhen was walking a hundred meters in front of it if he was too slow. It seemed to be urging Tang Zhen to move faster.
If Tang Zhen intentionally stopped and did not advance, the small metal bird would return in anger. It would land on his head and continuously scratch him, appearing extremely angry.
“Haha, you’re such an impetuous person!”
Tang Zhen saw that this metal bird was extremely interesting and would tease it from time to time. If there was a Yellow Dog following him, he would definitely be a wastrel from a rich family.
However, only he knew that ever since he started cultivating, he had very few opportunities to relax and play. He had always been fighting and killing.
“Once this matter is over, I’ll take a good rest and try to break through to the 2nd level of the sector Lord realm.”
Tang Zhen had made a decision in his heart. Instead, he became neither arrogant nor impatient. It was as if he was on a scenic tour as he slowly returned to the Beichen volunteer army camp.
When they were about to reach the Beichen state’s military camp, they saw iron head leading 1000 heavily-armored cavalrymen from the military camp to welcome them.
These thousand cavalrymen were one with their horses and followed their orders. As they advanced, it was as if they were a single entity, and waves of killing intent surged forth.
Iron head’s expression relaxed when he saw that Tang Zhen was fine. He stepped forward, bowed, and said,”Master, the military experts you asked me to gather are all in place, ready to be deployed at any time.”
Tang Zhen nodded his head. His gaze swept across the thousand carefully selected military elites and nodded his head in satisfaction. He said to iron head,”No need to ask, just follow behind me. When I give the order, just do your best to execute it.”
“Master, don’t worry. Iron head knows what to do.”
Tang Zhen nodded. He pulled down the visor on his helmet and covered his face. After which, he urged his horse forward.
Iron head did not hesitate when he saw Tang Zhen leaving on his horse. He waved his hand at the thousand cavalrymen behind him and followed closely behind him.
The 1,000 cavalrymen charged into the distance in the opposite direction of the Imperial City. After running for nearly two hours, they finally stopped outside a village.
When the people in the village heard the sound of horse hooves and saw the Black Mass of cavalry guarding the village entrance, they were already in a state of confusion and did not know what to do.
In order to avoid getting into trouble, the villagers all hid in their homes and used the doors and windows to secretly observe the movements outside.
Now that the world was in chaos, the rebellion was rising everywhere, and the People’s lives were difficult. They were afraid of encountering military disasters and bandits, and they were in a constant state of panic.
Tang Zhen raised his head and looked at the small metal bird that was constantly circling the village. He knew that this was the tracking bird’s warning, indicating that the enemy was here.
Sizing up the quiet and peaceful village in front of him, a cold glint flashed across Tang Zhen’s eyes. He ordered iron head, expel all the people in the village. Anyone who disobeys will be killed immediately!
“Yes, sir!”
After iron head agreed, he immediately gave the order to surround the village with a thousand cavalrymen.
Soon after, the fierce soldiers waved their swords and drove the frightened villagers out of the village. They went straight to the empty land at the entrance of the village.
In the process of driving them away, there were villagers who tried to resist from time to time. In the end, they were kicked to the ground by the fierce soldiers and fell to the ground, bleeding.
Seeing how fierce the rebel soldiers were, the villagers did not dare to show off. They were afraid that if they angered them, their heads would be cut off by the bright sabers.
Amidst the curses and cries, the villagers were driven out one after another. Finally, they gathered in the open space in front of the village and looked around in fear.
Thousands of heavy-armored cavalrymen held swords and Spears in their hands as they surrounded these villagers. As long as Tang Zhen gave the order, heads would roll on the ground in an instant.
Tang Zhen did not care about those frightened villagers. Instead, he turned his gaze to the sky above him. He saw a small metal bird chirping as it continuously circled and danced above the villagers ‘heads.
However, other than Tang Zhen, no one else was able to discover this scene.
The metal bird’s actions had already indicated that Hua Yue was here, but she was hiding among the villagers.
She didn’t know what he was planning to do. He had actually disguised himself and hid in the mountain village. Perhaps he had a bigger plan.
Tang Zhen was also not in a hurry. He turned his head and whispered a few words to iron head, but he did not lift his mask.
Iron head acted immediately after receiving the order. He claimed that he was only here to capture deserters and would not harm the innocent if it was not necessary.
When the villagers heard this, they heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts, thinking that they had dodged a calamity.
now, everyone, listen up. Walk to the open space 100 meters away one by one. Only one person is allowed at a time. It starts now!
After hearing iron head’s order, the villagers didn’t know what to do. However, under the coercion of the soldiers, they still obediently followed the order.
One by one, the villagers walked out of the crowd, their bodies trembling as they moved a hundred meters away, afraid that something would happen again.
hurry up! Catch up with the next one!
Seeing the villagers dilly-dally, the soldiers waved their whips and whipped them continuously. As expected, after being whipped, the villagers suddenly sped up.
As time passed, the villagers were split into two, but the metal bird continued to circle above their heads.
Tang Zhen’s eyes slightly narrowed. He quietly took out a soul talisman and pasted it on a newly obtained battle blade.
There weren’t many people left, so it was time to make a move in order to avoid any unforeseen circumstances.
At this moment, an old villager held a walking stick and slowly walked out of the crowd under everyone’s gaze.
The old man’s hair and beard were all white, and he was staggering as if a gust of wind could blow him away.
Because of iron head’s order, no one dared to help him, and they could only watch him slowly move forward.
Just as the old man was struggling to move forward, the metal bird in the sky suddenly changed its position. It flew above the old man’s head and continued to draw circles.
A glint flashed in Tang Zhen’s eyes. The corner of his mouth behind his mask revealed a smile.
This Hua Yue was so cunning and actually disguised herself as an old man. It would be strange if she didn’t have a scheme.
However, since he had already given himself away, it also meant that his death had arrived!
After confirming that the old man was Hua Yue, Tang Zhen’s figure was like lightning as he jumped off his War Horse and headed straight for the old man.
A glint flashed across the old man’s dim yellow eyes when he saw Tang Zhen rapidly charging over. He raised the wooden staff in his hand and smashed it towards Tang Zhen’s face.
“Hua Yue, this time I’ll see if you’re still alive!”
Hearing the voice from the other side, Hua Yue’s raised wooden staff trembled, and then she revealed an expression as if she had seen a ghost.
...
“Tang Zhen, it’s actually you!”
After he shouted, Hua Yue’s bent back suddenly straightened and she dodged nimbly.
He had suffered a great loss in Tang Zhen’s hands before and was even more aware of how powerful he was. Hence, even though both parties were evenly matched, he still did not dare to face him head on.
At this time, there was only one thought in his heart, and that was to quickly escape from this place and get as far away from this God of plague as possible!
However, the moment he was exposed, iron head had already led his men to charge forward, surrounding the area so tightly that not even a drop of water could pass through, completely cutting off any escape routes.
Seeing that there was no hope of escaping, Hua Yue was so angry that her entire body trembled. She turned to Tang Zhen and furiously roared,”Tang Zhen, are you really going to kill us all?”
“If I don’t kill you, will you take revenge on me after you recover your strength?”
Tang Zhen sneered as he moved forward and his blade went straight for Hua Yue’s face.
“I promise I won’t take revenge. How about we call it even?”
Hua Yue dodged Tang Zhen’s attack by a hair’s breadth as he furiously roared. At this moment, the beard on his face had already fallen off, making him look extremely miserable.
I don’t believe you. Ever since you sent people to kill me in the true immortal plane, we’ve been fighting to the death!
...
Tang Zhen’s voice had just faded when he flicked his hand and threw the battle blade in his hand. Hua Yue was entangled by the metal head and was unable to Dodge.
The knife pierced through zhongyue’s chest. He howled in pain and then looked frightened.
Seeing the blood flowing out of her chest, Hua Yue seemed to realize something. After a bitter laugh, she fell to the ground.
“I hate Yingluo.”
Hua Yue muttered to herself on the ground, and then there was no more sound.
The child of destiny, Hua Yue, had died!
