Chapter 151: Chapter 142: Upon Command, Heads Will Roll (Seeking Monthly Tickets) Chapter 151: Chapter 142: Upon Command, Heads Will Roll (Seeking Monthly Tickets) To the east of the mountain range, a golden light suddenly appeared. An order was issued, awakening Tianxiong Pass. “Drive” “Drive” “Drive” “Issue the order, Vajra Sect, Washing Sword Pavilion, Eastern City’s Li Family, colluding internally and externally, causing chaos in Tianxiong, the Government Administrative Office of the Ninth Mountain has been ordered to suppress, the principal offender has surrendered, the three families, accomplices, are to be brought to the front gate for beheading!” A loud shout followed the thundering of hooves. It was seen that from the east, west, and north, three main streets, Armored Soldiers were galloping on their horses. Ahead, the forbidding iron armor cleared the way. Behind them were cries and pleas for mercy, intermingled with curses. Bound behind each horse, individuals, necks shackled and cultivation sealed, their expressions either ashen or terrified, stumbled along. The troops from three directions escorted a line of figures towards the front gate. With this cry, the vast Tianxiong Pass, from distant to near, gradually began to seethe. “Clack clack” The sound of gates opening was incessant. The bustling voices of the citizens rose up, as they followed the surging crowd towards the front gate. At the front gate, Armored Soldiers were already in strict formation, forming a circle, the atmosphere chilling and grim. In this vast open space, as time went by, figures were escorted up by the Armored Soldiers. Hundreds of people, in total. Outside the area, the public swarmed in and gasped upon seeing this scene. Beheading so many people at once! “My God, so many.” “This is going to turn into a river of blood, how much sin will be wrought.” “Nonsense, it’s well done, those three families have made Tianxiong Pass a nest of smoke and poison these days; silent when Demons attacked the city, but once the fight was over, they became arrogant again, turning their spears inward, rebelling, pah!” “Even so, look at those gentle women, what a pity to kill them.” “Stay away from me...” At this moment, amidst the crowded throng, there were not only ordinary citizens but also various forces with their own agendas, and upon witnessing this scene, their hearts chilled. The Sky Patrol Department wielded thunderous measures and took up arms—a clear signal to frighten the tiger by striking the mountain and to cut through the mess swiftly. Sure enough, at this time, some individuals were sincerely fearful, especially those who were usually close to these three families. Just then, with a swoosh tearing through the sky, the crowd couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise as four streaks of light descended upon the execution ground at the front gate. The four Colonels appeared together, their presence overwhelmingly powerful, unitedly pressing down until the heavens and earth abruptly fell silent, followed by whispered murmurs. “That’s our Pass Colonel, Lord Wei!” “Who are the other three?” “They must be of similar rank.” “Eh?” As they spoke, exclamations arose. Among the four, it was not Pass Colonel Wei Zhong who took the main seat, nor was it the other two with mature presence, but a young man with a calm brow and a faint golden mark between his eyebrows. The other three stood guard beside him, the young man seated in the main position with a distinguished status. In an instant, countless eyes converged on this person, attentive to his every move. Many eyes flickered with understanding that it was this formidable man who had brought about the thunderous decimation of the three families! At this moment, an Armored Soldier holding a scroll stepped forward and began to read aloud: “By the edict of the Government Administrative Office,” “Vajra Sect, Washing Sword Pavilion, Eastern City’s Li Family, colluding both within and without, causing chaos in Tianxiong... guilty of the most heinous crimes.” “The related parties will continue to be investigated by The Overseers and punished severely!” Having proclaimed this, the Armored Soldier quickly approached the figure beneath the main seat and bowed respectfully. At that moment, the air over the front gate’s execution ground was eerily still, everyone’s gaze fixated on the person in the main seat. It was then that the person raised a hand! Suddenly, “Swoosh” “Whoosh” “Whoosh” The simultaneous sound of swords being drawn rang out! It was seen that on the execution ground, Soldiers in Armor lifted their long swords high; the morning sun gleamed, and cold light flickered between the blades. As the man’s hand fell, with a fierce swipe! “Pff” “Puh” “Puh” One by one, heads fell to the ground! Some people’s hearts also sank to the bottom of the valley. .......... After the beheadings, Tianxiong Pass had never been so lively. Teahouses and taverns were packed to capacity. Lips flapped, recounting the startling sound of hooves from the previous night’s storm, and the various rumors of the Three Families being struck down by thunderous force; these tales were vividly described, some undoubtedly embellished. But one name was etched deeply in the minds of those concerned at Tianxiong Pass!. Ninth Mountain’s Colonel Chen Yuan! This man was ruthlessly brutal and unmatched in ferocity, cutting a swath through the Three Families in one night, leaving corpses strewn everywhere, hundreds of heads fell with his single command. His fame was immense! As the execution at the front gate rippled out, some people began to feel uneasy. These individuals contacted one another and met in secret. “We must never let that Lord find out what we did for the Three Great Families.” “If that fierce man finds out, we’re as good as having no grave to be buried in.” “If anyone leaks information, you all know the consequences,” someone spoke viciously. “Yeah, exactly, no one can talk, or I’ll drag them down with me even in death.” Another person agreed, but inside was anxiety-ridden, truly frightened by the sight of the hundreds of heads falling that morning. “Let’s agree on this. Everyone should keep quiet and lay low for a while, perhaps even leave to avoid drawing attention.” “Disperse now. For a short period, it’s best we don’t meet again!” They parted ways, only for three of them to bump into each other right outside the Inner City a few hours later by some odd coincidence. For a moment, the three stood with wide eyes staring at each other, pointing fingers in anger and frustration. “Manager Tong, I knew you couldn’t be trusted. What are you doing here?” “Boss Xia, look who’s talking. What brings you here, surely not a walk? Right, and you, Hong Wushan, did you come to betray us?” “........” After a bout of arguing, these old foxes, who’d read enough ghost stories, dropped the act. “Alright, I’ll be frank. I don’t want to end up exterminated along with my family just because of the Li family. I haven’t got much life left, but I don’t want my family line to end. I have little to do with the Li family and I’ve come to seek forgiveness from the General!” “Sure enough, it’s just as I thought. You old thing is the craftiest, trying to clear your own name. If you talk, doesn’t that mean the rest of us have no way out?” “What does that have to do with me? Aren’t you the same?” The old shopkeeper named Tong stroked his beard, letting out a cold chuckle. Saying that, the old shopkeeper hesitated no longer. With a flick of his sleeve, he revealed a finely crafted box about a foot in size, with a vermillion base and adorned with blue cloud patterns. He then quickly walked to the heavily guarded gate of the Inner City. “Stop right there!” A stern shout filled with murderous intent rang out. The four Armored Soldiers guarding the gate had their hands on their swords’ hilts, stepping forward with a menacing look. “I am the shopkeeper of the Eastern City Hundred Treasures Building, wishing to see Lord Chen of the Ninth Mountain, to discuss urgent matters. This is my visiting card and a gift.” “Could you please pass on the message?” The old shopkeeper earnestly said with a smile to the leader among them. “I am Xia Hai from the Cao Gang, I also have matters to discuss with Lord Chen. Please accommodate.” “I am...” The three were indeed leaders of a faction, but at this moment, they could only speak politely to a low-ranking Qi Cultivation soldier, even attempting to bribe the man. But he just glared back at them. “Don’t try that trick with me. General Chen isn’t someone you can just see whenever you wish.” “We have urgent matters!” The soldiers at the gate were under Tianxiong’s command, so upon hearing this, they dared not decide on their own and had to send someone to pass the message to the Ninth Mountain Soldiers. About fifteen minutes later, the Leading Military Officer Liu Qing appeared, mounted on a tall horse wearing armor, his eyes, cold as they swept over the three. “Are you three the ones wanting to see my General?” The trio dared not raise their voice, almost bowing and scraping. “Yes, yes, yes!” “Follow me!” The Colonel led the three into the Inner City. Once inside, witnessing the chilling aura and blood-covered soldiers returning on horseback, the three felt uncomfortable as if their guilty consciences were being revealed by the gleam of the Cold Light Iron Armor, and they grew anxious. After about 15 minutes, the Leading Military Officer Liu Qing brought them to a tall courtyard with a foreboding black tone, filled with a grim atmosphere. Then, he led the three to a hall. As soon as they entered, they were stunned. Inside, there were already a dozen or so people. Moreover, many were familiar faces to them. It turned out, they were late!
