As that figure vanished,
A Rainbow Aurora a hundred zhang in diameter appeared above Lin County. A terrifying figure stood atop an armored bird with a wingspan of ten zhang.
He roared furiously at the city below.
"Disobedient dogs, all of you can be buried with my Lu Family..."
His voice shook the four fields, like a world-destroying demon god descending.
Just as the hundred-zhang aurora was about to fall upon the city, countless black crows suddenly soared into the sky from within.
They linked together into a net, dense black smoke billowing from their bodies.
The aurora immediately crashed into the black smoke, producing a series of crackling pops like beans exploding in a pan.
Tattered feathers mixed with foul-smelling blood rained down into the city.
"Lu Xuanji!"
"What are you trying to do?"
At some unknown time, dozens of figures in iron masks and cloaks had appeared at the southern dock. Their auras were deep and powerful; they were all elites of the Lin County Inspection Bureau.
"A flock of feathered beasts... Let's see what you can use to stop this official this time."
Lu Xuanji, shrouded in aurora, said disdainfully.
"What if you add this young master?"
A carriage slowly rolled over from the direction of the city gates. Seated atop it was a bearded, brawny man over two meters tall.
"Cao Mao... Do you wish to die as well..."
The voice carried towering fury, with a faint trace of unwillingness beneath it.
Killing a Zhang Baichuan

But killing a direct descendant of the Imperial Uncle's family was different. Even his position as Junior Guardian of the Crown Prince could not protect him.
Just as Lu Xuanji found himself riding a tiger and unable to dismount.
The fragrance of gardenias
