Seeing this, Li Changfeng narrowed his eyes, then glanced at the centurion behind him and charged forward.
Using the [Shaolin Bronze Body Skill], an eighty-foot-tall Vajra Arhat Phantom slowly appeared, radiating a dazzling golden light. An extremely powerful Vajra Power was added to his body to resist the violent attack.
"Boom!"
A deafening explosion rang out as Li Changfeng, with his eighty-foot-tall Vajra Arhat Phantom, withstood the violent self-destruction of the two eunuchs, creating a small mushroom cloud in the air with terrifying power!
The centurion behind him was also thrown into the air by the shock, crashing violently into the building, spitting out a mouthful of blood, and was already seriously injured.
A cloud of dust billowed up from the ground, from which faint golden light emanated. Li Changfeng's eighty-foot-tall Vajra Arhat Phantom was blasted to pieces, but it still withstood the attack without any damage, displaying an extremely domineering aura!
Seeing this Vice Director Cui's eyes flashed with fear, and he said venomously, "This grudge will be repaid tenfold in the future! You better remember this, Commander!"
After saying that, he vanished without a trace, turning into a series of afterimages, and fled in panic.
The surrounding area was a mess, with many houses collapsed. Fortunately, there were no casualties. The locals had left as soon as they saw the fighting.
Ten centurions rushed out, exclaiming in surprise, "Commander of the Thousand Households!!"
Upon hearing this, Li Changfeng slowly said, "Stop shouting! I'm not dead yet!"
The ten centurions knelt on one knee, expressing their gratitude. "Thank you so much, Commander! We have no way to repay your kindness. We will follow you to the death, even at the cost of our lives!"
Li Changfeng smiled slightly upon hearing this, "Get up, brothers! There's no need for that! I brought you out here, so I had to at least ensure your safety. This is nothing!"
Upon hearing that they were completely devoted to Li Changfeng and vowed to serve Li Changfeng to the death, the ten centurions gratefully replied, "We obey!"
"Check if any of the other brothers have been injured or killed!"
"I obey!"
A moment later.
Zhou Deyuan respectfully reported, "Reporting to Commander Qian! Seventeen brothers sustained minor injuries, five brothers were seriously injured, and the rest are in good condition!"
"Alright! Let the seventeen lightly wounded brothers lead the five seriously wounded brothers back to the Thousand-Household Manor first, then go to the Imperial Physician for treatment. We'll rest for half an hour and then continue our patrol!"
"I obey!"
The news of Li Changfeng killing the West Depot's men has spread like wildfire throughout the entire North City, and now no one in the North City dares to contradict the Brocade-Clad Guard.
Before Li Changfeng and his group even arrived, they lined up one by one to pay their taxes, fearing that they would be killed on the spot by this great devil, Li Changfeng!
Two hours later.
"Brothers! Let's head back!" Li Changfeng said calmly after leading them on a tour of the entire North City.
Town Military Command.
At this moment, Wang Bin slowly arrived Town Military Command and respectfully said, "Reporting to Commander Lu! This is the tax revenue from the North City, please check!"
Commander Lu slightly surprised upon hearing this, and chuckled, "Oh? You finished collecting them so quickly? Was the trip successful?"
"Reporting to Commander Lu! We encountered several shops that were obstructing our journey, but fortunately Thousand-Household Wu was very powerful and managed to suppress them all."
Commander Lu smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, "It seems that lad is indeed capable. How about the tax revenue?"
"I have successfully completed my mission! All shops have collected their taxes!"
Commander Lu was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, "Collected them all? All of them?"
"Reporting to Commander Lu! Indeed, they have all been collected! Under Commander Thousand-Household Wu presence, no one dared not hand them over!"
Commander Lu hearing this, "Tell me quickly! How did he collect them all?"
Wang Bin smiled slightly upon hearing this and slowly explained to Commander Lu.
"Hahaha! Good lad! You're indeed domineering and ruthless! You've really brought honor to the Brocade-Clad Guard. You've done a very good job. Go back and tell him to come to me. I'll reward him handsomely!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Bin was overjoyed. "I accept the order!" he said, then bid farewell to Commander Lu and hurriedly returned to report to Li Changfeng.
Seeing Wang Bin gradually walk away, Commander Lu suddenly roared angrily at the Brocade-Clad Guard had just arrived to pay taxes:
"Look at this! Look at this! You're both commanders of a thousand, but the difference between you and Thousand-Household Wu is like heaven and earth!!"
Upon hearing this, several Brocade-Clad Guard knelt down, trembling slightly. "We know we were wrong! Please punish Commander Lu!"
Commander Lu saw their trembling figures. "Go, go, go! Don't get in my way!"
Upon hearing this, the Brocade-Clad Guard felt as if they had been given a new lease on life and quickly took their leave, eager to escape the place that had terrified them.
Upon seeing this Commander Lu frowned and sighed, "Brother! I'm so sorry! I never imagined that the Brocade-Clad Guard would decline to this state under my command. I am to blame!"
West Factory.
"Bastards!! You lot actually deserted your posts! Let my four chief eunuchs be killed by that commander! What use are you to me?"
Director Cao was furious, and a ball of silver true energy condensed in his palm, as if he was about to kill these sect disciples.
The disciples from those sects were now bound and kneeling on the ground, their bodies covered in wounds, looking at Director Cao with utter terror.
Yu Yingfan of the Azure City Sect shouted, "Director Cao! Let me explain! That commander is no ordinary man. If we don't escape immediately, we may be wiped out!"
Sha Anran of the Iron Palm Gang said anxiously, "Yes! Yes! Do you know who that commander is? He's Wu Tiande's ranked sixth on the Human Rankings!"
Ning Caiying of the Divine Fist Gate hurriedly said, "He was the one who ruined Grand Protector Yu's plans before, and even crippled Li Wuyai of the Free and Unfettered Sect. His strength is unimaginable! If you don't believe me, you can ask Vice Director Cui. He should know how strong that guy is!"
Upon hearing this, Vice Director Cui stared at Ning Caiying with bloodshot eyes, making Ning Caiying's skin crawl. If it weren't for Director Cao being there, he wouldn't have dared to make any rash moves; he probably would have skinned the guy alive!
Chou ZhengGu of the Meteor Sect gritted his teeth and said, "I implore Director Cao! Give us a chance to redeem ourselves. Right now, you need more powerful allies, don't you? If you give us a chance, we will definitely not let you down!"
Upon hearing this, Director Cao gave him a deep look, then suddenly unleashed a sharp chop, severing all their ropes amidst their terrified expressions, and coldly said:
"I can give you a chance! But you have to swallow this poison in my hand!"
Upon hearing this, everyone hesitated for a moment, then said nervously, "Director Cao! This...!"
Seeing this, Director Cao said coldly, "You won't listen to reason, so you'll have to suffer the consequences! Vice Director Cui, make your move!"
Upon hearing this, Vice Director Cui sneered and was about to kill the men to vent his anger when they shouted, "I'll eat them! I'll eat them!"
Upon hearing this, Director Cao burst into laughter, "Hahaha! That's perfect then! We'll still be good friends after we eat it!"
After seeing the men swallow the poison, Director Cao's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Wu Tiande! Don't worry! I'll be back for you soon. I want to see what you're really capable of. Don't disappoint me!"
