Under the rain curtain, two waves of undulating knives went one after another, directly passing through He Lao's body. In the blink of an eye, they swayed from her body again, and flew away to both sides very quickly.
The waves of knives passed by each other, and finally separated for a moment.
The cold light dissipated, revealing Old He covered in blood.
Mr. He stood in the middle of the courtyard. The falling rain directly washed her blood to the ground, mixed it with the rain, and dispersed it.
The clothes on Mr. He's body were cut into pieces. There were pieces of flesh and blood on his arms, chest, back, throat, and even his face.
But Mr. He still stood firmly in place.
like a statue.
But unfortunately, the crane stick in her hand had fallen to the ground and was covered with mud and water.
[He Lao, the leader of the four elders of the Tianyin Sect, has a surly temperament, kills people like hemp, and has reached the final stage of the Xuantai realm (dying, poisonous)]
Just at that moment, He Lao gave up the suppression of Pi Cao Ku in his body, exploded with all his strength, and sent Zhang Wanyu out to an unknown distance in one fell swoop.
With Zhang Wanyu's strength, as long as she is not stupid enough to fight back, she can basically escape from this place.
But He Lao's own power quickly depleted after the explosion. Under the Thousand Niu Wei Yanzi strangulation formation, she only had the last breath left.
There is no great method for disintegrating demons in this world. After the outbreak, what follows is a rapid weakening of power.
Li Xuan inserted the Eight-sided Han Sword back into the scabbard on the side of the horse with her right hand.
The seven-step measure of Tianshan was handed over to his right hand. In an instant, his whole body was on his back and slightly bowed, ready to sprint again at any time.
Zhou Qian came from the opposite side, the tiger's mouth on his right hand had been completely exploded, the armor on his chest had cracked, and he swallowed a mouthful of blood in his mouth.
As the first sharp blade to attack He Lao, Zhou Qian took on He Lao's biggest counterattack.
Su Baotong's situation on the other side was even worse.
His position was originally supposed to be held by Qiu Zhenmu, but after Qiu Zhenmu took action to restrain Zhang Wanyu, he could only take the position with his slightly inferior strength.
But after all, as the grandson of the God of War Su Dingfang, Su Baotong still persevered even though he looked a little miserable now.
Looking past He Lao, Li Xuan looked at Qiu Zhenmu opposite, and Qiu Zhenmu raised the Thousand Ox Sword in his hand at the same time.
"Drive!" With a low voice, the two horses rushed forward at the same time, and in the blink of an eye they were in front of Mr. He.
Qibu Liangtianzhu and Qianniu Sword slashed at He Lao's throat at the same time.
"Get out!" In an instant, He Lao opened his eyes fiercely and grabbed Qibu Liangtian and Qianniu Dao with both hands at the same time.
The speed is extremely fast.
In the blink of an eye, Qibu Liangtian and Qianniu Dao were caught by He Lao.
Hold on tightly, hold on tight.
At this moment, Qiu Zhenmu let go of the Thousand Ox Sword in his hand, grabbed the saddle with his left hand, and pulled out a long sword, and then stabbed forward fiercely.
The flickering sharp blade made He Lao subconsciously turn his head slightly. At this moment, Li Xuan's arm on the other side suddenly exerted force, and Chang Shan broke free from He Lao's hand in an instant.
Lightning struck her throat.
"Hey!" A voice came out.
He Lao raised his eyes with some difficulty, his eyes filled with unbelievable astonishment.
Li Xuan's power was actually higher than the maximum she had expected.
Innate divine power can be divided into strong and weak ones.
With a "ding" sound, the long sword in Qiu Zhenmu's hand had already pierced the sharp blade.
He also had a look of disbelief on his face.
He knew best how strong He Lao's grip just now was. He couldn't break free, but how could Li Xuan break free?
But then, Qiu Zhenmu smiled bitterly and drew his sword.
Li Xuan's blow not only pierced He Lao's throat, but even spit out powerful true energy, directly cutting off the last trace of life in her body.
[He Lao, the leader of the four elders of the Tianyin Sect, is loyal to the Empress.
Incomparable, the Dzogchen realm after the Xuantai realm (death)]
The entries turned into colorful light spots scattered on Li Xuan's body.
At the same time, Li Xuan's extremely sharp spear slowly pulled out from He Lao's neck.
Blood flowed down.
Li Xuan's cold eyes were reflected in the blood beads.
Chang Yan retracted, Li Xuan turned to look at Qiu Zhenmu, and whispered: "Behead him to show the public."
After saying that, Li Xuan pulled the reins fiercely, turned the horse's head, and let the horse take him out of the courtyard.
Qiu Zhenmu raised his eyes and immediately understood what Li Xuan meant.
Killing He Lao, the leader of the four elders of the Tianyin Sect, such a feat would not have much effect on Li Xuan at all.
But it was different for Qiu Zhenmu. With such a head, he could immediately be promoted to the rank of fifth-grade Qianniu Colonel.
After a moment's hesitation, Qiu Zhenmu cut off Lao He's head with a single blow, grabbed her hair, and shouted to everyone: "With the concerted efforts of all my colleagues, one of the leaders of the rebellion, Lao He, was killed. Your Majesty, may you be victorious! may you be victorious!"
"Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng! Wan Sheng!" Many Qianniu Guards present couldn't help but shout loudly at the same time, with extremely high momentum.
Qiu Zhenmu's words were tantamount to saying that he wanted to share the merit of this head equally with everyone present.
Although it was a lot less for Qiu Zhenmu, for many people present, it could save them countless years of detours.
"Clean the scene and kill the remaining bandits." Qiu Zhenmu gave the order without any hesitation.
Everyone present immediately started moving quickly.
Qiu Zhenmu chased him outside.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Li Zhu coming out of the coffin. Although the long sword was sheathed, there was still blood under his horse's hooves.
Li Zhu nodded slightly to Qiu Zhenmu, then without saying much, headed directly towards the square gate.
Under the firelight, Li Zhu was seen standing under the gate of the square with several guards, and Xu Lu stood beside him.
Xu Lu betrayed the Tianyin Sect.
Under the flickering firelight, she looked very weak in her black cloak.
But Qiu Zhenmu knew that if this woman fell into the hands of the King of Nanchang, she would immediately become his sharp sword against the Tianyin Sect.
Their prince is really very calculating.
Qiu Zhenmu took a deep breath, turned around, and immediately began to clean up the scene.
There is a courtyard across the east, a courtyard across the west, and a coffin shop.
All those who resisted were killed by the blade, but several people gave up resistance in order to survive.
We need to find out from them the location of the last remnants of the Tianyin Sect in Wuzhou City, as well as the whereabouts of Zhang Wanyu who escaped.
Li Xuan stood under the square gate, nodded slightly to Li Zhu who was walking across from him, and then looked at the rain curtain in front of him without saying a word.
In his body, endless Yuan Qi was constantly rushing, but it was pressed into his Dantian bit by bit.
Now Li Xuan didn't dare to make too many moves, lest the true energy in his body would burst out all of a sudden.
In the inner Dantian Qi sea, three hundred and sixty drops of innate true energy water have gathered into a group, and a slender and tall shadow can be vaguely seen appearing in the center of countless true energy water droplets.
The nine true veins faintly emerged in the shadow body, and countless water energy quickly gathered into the nine true veins.
It reminds me that the Yuan Qi essence just extracted from He Lao's body is filling Li Xuan's meridians.
Then it was quickly digested and then integrated into Dantian, turning into Li Xuan's own power. .
Although the shadow deep in the inner Dantian quickly became clear, Li Xuan knew that tonight, he was overwhelmed and would step into the realm of the mysterious fetus in one step.
But definitely not now, definitely not in front of everyone.
After a long time, the voices in the entire neighborhood became scattered.
Li Xuan gradually relaxed.
Turning his head, Li Xuan looked at the head of the workshop standing aside and said softly: "Open the door of the workshop."
! "
"Here!" The head of the workshop did not dare to hesitate at all and immediately opened the door of the workshop.
Behind Fangmen, all the chief officials of Wuzhou, including Zhang Yi who joined the army as a recorder, Du Bixing who joined the army as a Fa Cao, Han Jiang as a Hu Cao, Li Yuanyi as a Cang Cao, and Xu Jian as a military inspector, all stood outside respectfully.
When the gate of the square opened, everyone immediately raised their hands and said, "See you, Your Majesty."
"Yes!" Li Xuan nodded slightly, and then said directly: "The order is given. From now on, in the city of Wuzhou, every grain store, drug store, silk and satin shop, coffin shop, lumber yard, dye factory, etc., will be opened. Wherever there are hired workers, Tianyin believers will be strictly investigated. If any Tianyin believer is found to be unwilling to sever ties with the Tianyin religion, he will be expelled from Wuzhou City immediately!"
"Here!" Zhang Yi, as well as everyone behind him, immediately accepted the offer.
Li Xuan nodded and continued: "From today until the end of the autumn harvest, each city gate will open half an hour early and close half an hour late every day. Everything is to complete today's autumn harvest as soon as possible."
Before, the city gates were always closed half an hour earlier, but now they have to close half an hour later and open half an hour earlier in the morning.
Although some people were confused, they did not ask questions and all of them gave it away: "Here!"
"Send an order to Lanxi. From now on, all Lanxi officials, government officials, police officers, and soldiers will go into the countryside to collect the summer tax. The summer tax does not need to be transferred to the Lanxi County treasury, but will be loaded directly into the ship. Once the ship is full, it will be sent to the country immediately. We will send a ship from Wuzhou without any delay."
"Here!" Upon hearing what Li Xuan said, many of the Wuzhou officials present deeply agreed, and no one objected.
So far, there are only two places in Wuzhou that have harvested autumn crops and have not started to grab them.
One is Longyou and the other is Lanxi.
Longyou County is located in the far west of Wuzhou, but it is surrounded by plains and has no danger to defend. However, once the Tianyin Sect enters Longyou, it will immediately become the target of public criticism.
Lanxi is the northwestmost county in Wuzhou, with Muzhou behind it.
In the whole of Wuzhou, Lanxi is where the most immigrants from Muzhou live, besides the city.
For many years, Tianyin Sect has been cultivating in Lanxi.
I don't know how many Muzhou immigrants are filling various places in Lanxi County. As long as the Tianyin Sect attacks Lanxi with all its strength, Lanxi will fall in less than half a day.
"From tomorrow onwards, the immigrant servants recruited by the state will no longer go to Jinhua, but to Lingdong. Using Lingdong Pass as the gateway, people will be sent into Lanxi every day to harvest summer grain. After the tax grain is harvested, it will be transported directly by ship. Zhoucheng."
After a pause, Li Xuan looked at Hu Cao, who joined the army Han Jiang, and said seriously: "Han Hu Cao went to Lingdong in person and used the household registration books in the state to collect summer grain. If there is any conflict with Lanxi, everything will be based on Hu Cao's foundation." Subject to that."
"Your Majesty, I obey the order!" Han Jiang immediately stepped forward and bowed in agreement.
Everyone present understood that Li Xuan was going to attack Lan Xi.
After Dongyang, Jinhua, Yiwu, Pujiang, Wuyi, Yongkang, and Pan'an, Li Xuan finally attacked Lanxi.
And from the beginning, he showed complete distrust of Lanxi County officials.
But these have nothing to do with everyone present.
Li Xuan stared at the master present carefully and said in a deep voice: "From now on, the entire Wuzhou will enter the busy season of summer harvest and make every effort to complete this year's summer harvest plan. There must be no carelessness or paralysis in action, otherwise, you will be dismissed from office. , and only in an instant.
"I don't dare to lower my rank." Many officials present responded at the same time.
"Also, last but not least, the whole city is searching for Tianyin Sect Zhang Wanyu, and the whole city has issued a sentence of arrest at sea. I want all the people in Wuzhou to know that the leader of Tianyin Sect was driven out like a chicken or a dog in Wuzhou. Running around." Li Xuan had a hint of cruelty on her face.
"Send an order to have the chiefs and village chiefs of all parties target all abnormal persons from all parties without any mistakes."
"Here!"
