"boom!"
With a loud noise, the hard tent was smashed into pieces, and a figure suddenly fell into the middle of the crowd.
"who!"
The generals present were worthy of being veterans of all battles, and they reacted immediately.
"Quick! Someone is attacking the camp! Protect the coach!"
"Someone! Come quickly!"
"Bold thief! How dare you trespass into the heart of our military camp! You are seeking death!"
"..."
Angry shouts echoed around, and the soldiers outside had also noticed the situation here, and surrounded them with weapons in hand.
In the field, smoke and dust filled the air, and a figure wrapped in a black and purple robe loomed.
"He's hiding here, which makes it easy for me to find him."
Zhang Xiaoman waved his hand gently, and a breeze came out of thin air around him, blowing away the smoke and dust nearby.
Originally, he wanted to come here to find out where the coach of this expedition was and to ask about the situation.
As a result, the hundreds of thousands of troops were spread out, which was even more exaggerated than he imagined.
Not only are there huge crowds of people with no end in sight, but also because they surround Hanyue City, they are scattered all over the place and stretch for hundreds of kilometers. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
The army commander even gave up the conspicuous luxury tent and huddled in the simplest tent like ordinary soldiers, which made it even more difficult to find.
Because of Zhang Xiaoman's cultivation level, it would be difficult to find someone he had never seen before in such a huge range.
In the end, he used the illusion skills he learned from Huandie to hypnotize batch after batch of soldiers, and then he successfully found this place.
"You, you are the demon in the city!!"
At this moment, several generals around him couldn't help but gasped when they saw his appearance. Unexpectedly, the other general found him directly in his tent.
As for why they recognized Zhang Xiaoman's identity at a glance, it was because the Polar Star robe he was wearing was too fantasy, and the overflowing light from the stars was a bit beyond everyone's understanding.
"He, is he that person...?"
When the surrounding soldiers heard this, there was some commotion.
They had been under too much pressure from the other party these days, and now they suddenly saw their true face, which made them feel a little overwhelmed for a while.
"Hmph! How dare you dare to come to our country alone! You really don't know whether to live or die! Soldiers, listen to your orders! This person is the demon in the city. Your Majesty has an order to kill the demon and he will be promoted to seven levels! He will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins. Two! Become a marquis or a knight!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone around them suddenly became red-eyed. As the saying goes, there must be brave men under a heavy reward. These soldiers have begun to be unable to help but want to attack.
"Hahaha, boy, it seems that you are worth a thousand taels of gold in the eyes of these mortals! What a shame that you still want to protect them from the demons outside the territory, tsk tsk..."
In the sacred stone, Ni Yang's voice sounded, his tone full of teasing.
Zhang Xiaoman rolled his eyes.
Since Ni Yang became more and more familiar with him, his true temperament has gradually been revealed. He is obviously an old glutton who likes to gossip and boast about himself.
Now he is used to hearing the other person's complaints every day, and he has already regarded this as a background sound effect.
"Oh? Demonic way?"
Zhang Xiaoman ignored Ni Yang and turned to look at the young general who had just spoken.
It seems that these guys hate themselves a lot.
But think about it.
Although I don’t know why these people want to massacre the city, I and others are indeed a barrier between them.
In addition, they have suffered a lot these days, and they can't justify it even if they don't hate themselves.
There's just one thing Zhang Xiaoman doesn't quite understand.
After all, I am a Taoist, and I have no grievances with the so-called imperial court in the past, so logically speaking, I should not have such a big resistance.
But why is the other party's first reaction after seeing him not to win over him, but to insist on fighting to the death?
Speaking of which, this is a bit inconsistent with the logic of interests.
But since he couldn't figure it out, he simply stopped thinking about it for the time being.
Anyway, the purpose of his coming here this time was to ask these guys about the specific situation.
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoman didn't delay any longer. When he saw the soldiers around him gradually approaching, he looked solemn, no longer restraining his extraordinary aura, and released the pressure.
"Thump thump thump thump!!"
In an instant, the expressions of all the soldiers on all sides changed drastically, and they just fell into a heap without any warning. Those in the distance were better off, but those who were closer were in more unbearable condition.
Some guys who were about five meters away from him even rolled their eyes and fell unconscious.
This is the first time that Zhang Xiaoman has released his extraordinary aura among ordinary people, and the effect is amazing.
Ordinary Star Alliance awakeners can already suppress others with their momentum. As the star master of the Star Alliance, Zhang Xiaoman is not only transcendent in strength, but his own realm has reached the "extraordinary level".
Now that he is spreading his aura, to ordinary people, it is like a suffocating aura that cannot be approached at all.
"You, what did you do!?"
Seeing that the other party didn't even move, all the soldiers on his side fell down, and the expressions of the generals present changed drastically.
They could also feel the terrible pressure, but because of the distance and their own strength, they were still able to barely hold on.
"The demon! It is indeed the demon! Archers! Where are the archers!!"
A middle-aged general shouted loudly.
Outside the field, hundreds of soldiers holding bows and arrows gathered around. They set up their bows from a distance and aimed at Zhang Xiaoman.
"Fire the arrow! Fire the arrow quickly!!"
The general continued to issue orders.
However, this time no one responded to him, and all the archers remained motionless, as if they had not heard his words.
"You, you guys..."
The general was about to scold him, but when he turned around to check, he found that although the more than a hundred soldiers did not move, the expressions on their faces were very distorted, as if they were competing with something.
At this time, he finally understood that this scene might be another demonic spell performed by the demon.
"You, you demon! You..."
The man wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Zhang Xiaoman.
"Noisy."
He waved his hand, and the general rolled his eyes without warning and fell to the ground.
This is Zhang Xiaoman's dark energy shock. Now he has mastered this technique and can control hundreds of ordinary people with ease.
"Who is the coach here?"
After looking at the generals around him, Zhang Xiaoman focused on the old general who had never spoken.
This person gave him the feeling that he was the most calm here. It seemed that his internal strength was not low. Coupled with his age and the intentional or unintentional protection of some generals, he immediately locked the target. .
Seeing this scene, Lu Cheng also knew that his identity had been noticed by the other party, so he stopped hiding it.
He stared at the huge pressure and said with a trembling voice:
"Yao Dao, aren't you just here for me? My head is right here, just come and take it! Don't embarrass these soldiers!"
After saying this, he closed his eyes and waited for death to come.
"Coach! No way!!"
When several generals around him saw this, they shouted anxiously.
"Where are the 108 Golden Guards! Why haven't they arrived yet! Come out quickly to protect the coach!!"
"Swish swish!"
As soon as he finished speaking, dozens of sounds of sound piercing the air suddenly sounded around him, and dozens of hidden weapons of different shapes attacked Zhang Xiaoman.
At the same time, one hundred and eight masters in golden clothes came from all directions.
It can be seen from the speed they show that these people are among the best in the palace, and they can be ranked high in the entire world.
In other words, they devoted themselves to the imperial court and did not participate in the ranking of the martial arts list.
Otherwise, neither the Heavenly Ranking nor the Earthly Ranking would be what they are today.
"The Golden Guards are here! Hurry up! Go rescue the coach first and leave us alone!"
Several generals immediately showed joy upon seeing this.
Obviously, these Golden Guards are still very strong in their hearts.
Each of those 108 people can be regarded as a generation of martial arts prodigies, and now they are attacking together with such a majestic momentum that even if the top ten masters on the Heavenly Ranking come together, they may not be able to escape.
Their bodies were like lightning. As soon as they landed, they launched an attack on Zhang Xiaoman. They cooperated in an orderly manner, and they had obviously practiced some combined attack skills.
"snort."
Facing this attack that came like a violent storm, Zhang Xiaoman didn't even move, he just snorted coldly, and then launched the dark energy shock again.
The one hundred and eight Golden Guards who came in a combined attack suddenly seemed to have lost their balance. Their bodies suddenly slammed to the ground, and then they were pressed to the ground. No matter how they used their internal strength to struggle, it was of no avail.
In an instant, all threats were lifted, and there was a group of people on the ground who were suppressed and unable to move.
"This, how is this possible..."
Seeing this scene, even Lu Cheng, who had always maintained a calm expression, finally couldn't stand it any longer and looked at the scene in front of him in shock.
Although he had long thought that the monk would be very strong, he never expected that the other party would be so strong.
Without even raising his hand, he just let out a cold snort and instantly subdued the strongest combat force on his side.
You must know that the one hundred and eight Golden Guards are the most elite group of the royal family. The reason why those people in the world do not dare to come to the palace to disturb Tianwei is all because of their existence.
Although when it comes to fighting alone, there are still some people in this world who can beat them.
But if it is a combined attack, then he can say that looking at the entire martial arts world, no sect can compete with it.
It was even said that according to their original plan, these 108 Golden Guards would be used as the trump card to finally surround and kill the monk.
But what they never expected was that the gap between the two sides would be so big that the other side would finish them off without even moving.
Thinking of this, Lu Cheng only felt that he and others were like actors, who had worked so hard to plan so many plans, but when faced with the real strength, they were completely crushed.
"Since you are the coach, that's fine. Come with me."
Zhang Xiaoman ignored the others and raised his hand to strike at Lu Cheng. The latter immediately flew to his side as if under a strong suction force.
Regardless of the angry and frightened looks of these people, Zhang Xiaoman used the Wind Control Technique and flew away directly with Lu Cheng.
After he left, everyone on the field lost the suppression of the dark energy shock and was finally able to resume action.
"Ah!!! Damn it!!! Hurry up!! Notify all ministries!! Everyone gather!! Attack the city with all your strength!! Rescue General Lu!!"
The eyes of several generals were all red and their faces looked like crazy demons.
After so many years of marching and fighting, this was the first time that someone broke into the camp and kidnapped the coach in front of him.
This feeling is simply more uncomfortable than killing them. For these generals, this is a naked humiliation.
Suddenly, with the issuance of military orders one after another, the entire camp began to get busy.
…
On the other side, Zhang Xiaoman grabbed Lu Cheng and flew directly across a distance of several kilometers back to the city lord's palace in Hanyue City.
"Master Zhang! Are you back? This is..."
Ye Lin saw Zhang Xiaoman falling from the sky and quickly came forward to salute.
However, he soon discovered something was wrong. The other party seemed to have brought back a general wearing armor this time.
When he took a closer look, his expression suddenly changed and he recognized the man's identity.
"He is...General Lu Chenglu!?"
When Ye Lin followed Bai Yue in the early days, he was lucky enough to see Lu Cheng's true face once, so it was not unusual for him to be able to recognize the other party's identity.
"Oh? Do you know him?"
Zhang Xiaoman became interested.
Ye Lin nodded and said:
"Yes, if I remember correctly, he is Lu Cheng, the general and marquis of Zhenguo of the Dafu Dynasty."
"The Marquis of Zhenguo? Haha, it seems that his status in this country is not simple."
Although Zhang Xiaoman didn't know much about the official positions in this country, he could still guess a little about the weight of a marquis. What's more, the title of the other party was "Zhenguo", so the meaning was even more intriguing.
"Hmph! You traitor! Don't say any more! You can kill or behead me as you please! Don't expect to get any military information from me!"
Old General Lu Cheng looked like he would rather die than surrender.
"Traitor!?"
On the side, after hearing these words, Ye Lin suddenly shouted and asked.
"General Lu, I originally had a lot of respect for you after I heard City Master Bai tell you some of your deeds, but I didn't expect that you are also the kind of person who doesn't care about everything. It's really not as good as being famous after meeting you!"
The expression on his face was angry, as if there was a long-suppressed anger in his chest that wanted to be vented.
"I ask you, what is wrong with Hanyue City, and what are the crimes of the people in the city? Why do you want to massacre the city without saying a word!?"
"We, as ordinary people, encountered demons and bloodbathed the city. However, the imperial court did not send troops to support us, but instead wanted to kill us. Why!?"
"Now we just don't want to be killed. In the eyes of General Lu, is this treason!? Do we, the people of Hanyue City, deserve to die!?"
