The Capital City, the Commandery of the Dragon Sealing Guard.
Inside the main hall, the golden light projected by the Communication Jade Talisman had not yet completely dissipated, and the command from the new commander on it was clear and unambiguous.
[Immediately besiege the Mo Family in the Capital City!]
As soon as the order was issued, thousands of Dragon Sealing Guards in the Capital City, including those on leave, quickly mobilized and assembled at the military camp!
Inside the main hall, Commander Tong Feng stood like an iron tower.
This stern-faced general, with eyes as sharp as a hawk's, stared in astonishment at the imperial edict. "..."
He knew, of course, who gave the order; it was a local lieutenant personally promoted by the Eldest Princess some time ago.
And that mysterious venerable one who has been making headlines in Capital City recently!
This man's infamous reputation for publicly killing Great Scholar at the Shiguang Academy has spread far and wide. Even he, High-ranking Venerable, doubted the veracity of the incident when he first heard about it.
But after confirming that everything was correct, he finally developed a deep respect for the deputy commander.
The ability to kill High-ranking Venerable is unparalleled in terms of combat power, no matter where you are!
What Tong Feng didn't expect was that this deputy commander had never even been to the military camp before he started issuing orders using the gold token, and he immediately wanted to take action against the powerful families in the Capital City who had a venerable figure in charge!
That's incredibly audacious! Could it be His Highness's idea?
Tong Feng clenched his fists, came to his senses, and his muscles gradually tensed up. Without hesitation, he strode out of the main hall!
"..."
After a brief period of reorganization, the massive black gate of the Dragon Sealing Guard Commandery opened with a resounding thud!
Rumble--!
The deep, terrifying roar echoed for over a thousand miles. Upon hearing it, all the citizens of the Capital City were jolted awake, making way for the Great Dao, and the previously noisy atmosphere instantly fell silent!
Under the watchful eyes of countless people.
The six thousand elite Dragon Sealing Guard, who had been ready for battle for a long time, surged out of the company like a steel behemoth awakening from its slumber!
They were clad in heavy, dark armor, which gleamed with a cold, eerie Cold Glint in the dim morning light. They rode only Great Demon horses, their crimson eyes like blood!
It is a rare breed carefully cultivated by Dasheng!
In terms of speed alone, it even surpasses the dragon horses specially supplied to the Imperial City!
Long spears stretched like a forest! Banners fluttered in the wind!
The heavy clatter of hooves, like continuous muffled thunder, shattered the tranquility of the capital region, heading straight for a majestic noble family in the western part of the Capital City!
Changyun Mountains, the headquarters of the Mo Family school.
This sprawling mansion, still shrouded in the tranquility of the morning, exudes an aura of grandeur and luxury accumulated over tens of thousands of years, constantly highlighting the Mo Family's influence within the Capital City.
At the gate of the mountain resort, several gatekeepers on night duty were stretching and chatting as they prepared to change shifts.
Before we could even have a proper chat, a heart-stopping howl of a storm came from the distant horizon!
"Wh... what was that sound?" A doorman's expression changed drastically as he looked in the direction from which the sound came from, his expression filled with surprise and uncertainty.
Then, along with everyone around him, they stared blankly at the scene that would haunt them for the rest of their lives—
On the horizon at the edge of the field of vision, a thick, inky black wave was sweeping in at a terrifying speed!
That wasn't water, but a surging mass of black armor!
It's a black-scaled Demon Horse with burning crimson demonic eyes!
"The... the Dragon Sealing Guard?!" A seasoned doorman, his teeth chattering, screamed incoherently, his voice distorted.
"It's the Dragon Sealing Guard of the Capital City!!"
"They're coming this way!!"
"Quick! Quickly report to the Family Head!!" The gatekeepers were instantly terrified and scrambled towards the mansion, but they were still too late.
The black torrent was like a raging flood bursting its banks, and it was about to arrive in an instant!
Tong Feng, who was in the lead, suddenly reined in the Demon Horse. The magnificent black-scaled beast reared up from high in the sky and let out a deafening neigh!
The six thousand iron cavalry behind him stopped almost simultaneously, their movements perfectly synchronized, as if they were a single unit!
Boom!
The heavy hoofbeats stopped abruptly, leaving only a soaring, Killing Intent aura that swept across the entire Mo Family mansion!
"The Capital City Dragon Sealing Guard!!"
"Why are you besieging my Mo Family?!"
Countless Mo Family disciples poured out of the courtyard, their expressions filled with fear as they gazed at the silent black iron cavalry high in the sky. Some were so terrified by the sight that they collapsed to the ground, trembling and muttering to themselves.
It seemed to be in response to their questions--
A figure streaked across the sky at incredible speed! Its momentum was terrifying!
Everyone inside the hall only saw a flash of blood before their eyes!
Boom!!!!
A deafening roar suddenly echoed throughout the Mo Family mansion!!
A bloody shadow smashed through several main gates, plowing long furrows into the ground that stretched deep into the mansion. The person's fate was already unknown!
Upon seeing her face clearly, the Mo Family disciples froze on the spot, their minds exploding with shock!
This... is the legendary Mo Family prodigy who is said to be diligently cultivating Daoism in the Shangqing Palace!
Even they had only seen each other's figures through their elders' accounts and through the illusory images of trials left behind by their families!
The situation has become so tragically dire!
Boom!!--
A muffled howling of wind and thunder came from high above once again, abruptly interrupting everyone's thoughts.
Following the sound, one could see a figure in black robes hovering high in the sky, with an invisible force splitting the vast clouds in two!
A fierce wind whipped through the air, causing the dark shirt to flutter wildly.
A terrifying aura, approaching the Immortal Realm, emanated from him, causing countless Mo Family disciples to feel their skin tingle and their hearts pound wildly!
"Commander Ye." This was the first time Tong Feng had seen this legendary prodigy, and his tone unconsciously became somewhat respectful.
"Um."
Ye Li nodded in affirmation.
Tong Feng's gaze, hidden beneath his mask, sharpened instantly, sweeping across the colossal mansion before him. Simultaneously, six thousand chilling Killing Intent shouts erupted from the ground, piercing the eardrums of every member of the Mo Family.
"By Commander Ye!!"
"Surround the Mo Family! Seal off the entire Mo Family territory! Entry is permitted, but exit is not!!"
"Anyone who moves without authorization will be killed!"
"Trespassers, kill!"
"Those who resist will be killed without mercy!!"
