Bingzhou.
The fortress of the Martial God Army.
It didn't matter when the Martial God Fortress was built. What mattered was that this place was deeply marked by the Martial God.
Here, under the respectful gazes of countless soldiers, Wang Yuanlang unconsciously raised his head and puffed out his chest, looking dignified and cold. They walked outside the Martial God Mansion.
Of course, Wang Ba wouldn't greet them personally. Huaiyuan General Du Sheng took his place.
Du Sheng was second only to Wang Ba in the Martial God Fortress. His power was beyond imagination. It could be said that as long as Wang Ba wasn't here, the Martial God Fortress was his world.
Of course, he had to be loyal to ensure Wang Ba's interests, which was why he had his current position.
"Nephew, you're here." Du Sheng looked like he was 50 years old at most, but he was almost 60 this year. He was one of the senior generals in the army. His belly was a little fat, causing the chains on his armor to tighten. It looked like it would break at any time. It would be fine if he didn't wear it, but if he did, it would look funny.
"Uncle Du, I haven't seen you for years. You're still as elegant as before." Wang Yuanlang took two steps forward to greet him.
Du Sheng was satisfied with his attitude. He smiled. "You're flattering me. Nephew Yuanlang, you're getting more and more handsome. My girl, you can take whichever one you like. "
Wang Yuanlang's cheeks twitched as if he recalled some horrible memory. He smiled embarrassedly. "My heart belongs to someone else. Uncle Du, you know that."
"I know, I know." Du Sheng smiled ambiguously. "You have to work harder. If you can marry her, the Martial God Mansion will truly be rooted in China. Old generals like us can also benefit from it."
"Of course," Wang Yuanlang said.
"Come with me. The marshal is waiting to see you."
Liu Mingyuan and the elite guards were left outside the Martial God Manor. Du Sheng led the way and directly arrived at an ancient-looking study. Wang Ba was writing.
Wang Yuanlang took a few steps forward and knelt on one knee. "Greetings, father."
"Get up." Wang Ba put down his pen and looked up at Wang Yuanlang with a faint smile on his face. "I heard that His Majesty sent you to investigate the murder case at Willow Grove Monastery. Did you find anything?"
"I'm ashamed." Wang Yuanlang stood up and said, "I didn't find any clues, but something else happened …"
"Tell me."
Wang Yuanlang immediately told him how he killed Fa Xiang and the subsequent events.
Wang Ba's expression did not change, but his thick eyebrows furrowed slightly. "It's too risky this time. You could lose your life if you're not careful."
"You're right, Father …" Wang Yuanlang said, "After witnessing that woman's strength, I wanted to retreat. Fortunately, they were fighting for the treasure, and I took the opportunity to retreat."
Seeing that Wang Ba was not displeased, he had an idea and suggested, "Father, Yan Li is the link between the imperial court and Yanshan Robber. He is trapped in the Baiyang Palace and will definitely die. Why don't we take this opportunity to take down the Lonely Moon Tower?"
Wang Ba's expression did not change. He only asked, "Have you thought about the pros and cons?"
Knowing that it was a test, Wang Yuanlang immediately racked his brains and said, "There are three pros. Yanshan Robber is Father's greatest threat and must be eliminated. If we take action at this time, the imperial court will not be able to hold him accountable. It's only right for the soldiers to suppress the bandits. Most importantly, Yan Shiyi is missing. If we can find the Yan Dragon Butcher and expose his true face to the world, Father's reputation will definitely increase."
"The cons are His Majesty's attitude towards the Wang family. It's like we're 'a noisy guest' and I'm afraid we'll arouse suspicion."
Wang Ba nodded slightly. "It's not bad to be able to see this far. But what about the hidden danger you left behind? "
"Hidden danger?" Wang Yuanlang was stunned.
"Do you really think no one knows that you killed Fa Xiang?" Wang Ba said.
"I'm slow-witted. Please enlighten me, Father," Wang Yuanlang said.
Wang Ba said, "The person who killed Fa Xiang must have a certain level of authority. At least, he must be convincing. Only a few people know about the opening of Baiyang Palace. When Fa Xiang died, Yan Li was at the scene and he was trapped in Baiyang Palace. Isn't this all logical?"
Wang Yuanlang's eyes brightened. "Father is wise."
Once he figured this out, he thought even more deeply. He was so impressed by Wang Ba that he could not help but say excitedly, "Then we can complete my mission. Let's say that the person who destroyed the Willow Forest Monastery was Yanshan Robber … If we take down Lonely Moon Tower, we will have a good reason to send troops."
Wang Ba finally smiled with satisfaction. He said, "Let's not waste time. Return to the capital immediately and tell the 'truth' to the Emperor. Also, buy some people to spread the news. We must unify the accounts and say that Yanshan Robber destroyed the monastery. He is extremely evil and must be killed."
"I have a request," Wang Yuanlang said.
"Speak."
"Can you send my subordinates down? I want to see Father's invincible might and trample Lonely Moon Tower under your feet."
"Sure."
That day, thousands of Martial God Army soldiers surrounded Lonely Moon Tower.
…
"Dragon Head has been missing for many days."
"That's a common occurrence."
"He often goes missing?"
"He often does things we don't know about. When he reappears, the dust settles. "
"None of you have any objections?"
"If the three commanders don't mention it, how would we dare?"
Li Xiang Jun frowned. "This is not what a qualified leader should do!"
Yuan Chengxi smiled embarrassedly. "Madam, all we can do is what we should do. If you have other ideas, we can only support you spiritually."
There was a commotion downstairs.
Suddenly, footsteps rushed up. "Madam, bad news!" It was Sun Zhangzhi, the herb farmer.
"What is it?"
"Wang Ba is here!"
"How dare he?"
"Why wouldn't I dare?"
Bang!
The window on the sixth floor was smashed by a strong force. The window on the first floor was Yan Shiyi's favorite.
"Madam, watch out!" Sun Zhangzhi straightened his body to block the attack, but the strong energy hit his body and he was thrown backwards like a rag, hitting the wooden wall and slipping down. He spat out a mouthful of blood, his head tilted to one side and he was dead.
"Mr. Sun!" Li Xiang Jun looked at him in disbelief. To her, Sun Zhangzhi was not a bandit, but a generous elder.
"Madam, leave!" Yuan Chengxi was trembling in fear, but he did not forget to push Li Xiang Jun out.
"Tell me the true identity of the Yan Dragon Slayer, and I will spare your lives." Wang Ba leaped in from outside. His powerful aura instantly dominated the entire sixth floor.
Yuan Chengxi was just an ordinary person, so he fainted immediately.
"Don't even think about getting any information from me!" Li Xiang Jun gritted her teeth.
"There is no secret in this world that can't be interrogated." Wang Ba smiled coldly. "Especially a woman like you."
He reached out to grab her.
Suddenly, he frowned and took two steps back.
Bang!
The floor was broken by a blue light, and a spear appeared. It was the Dragon Soul Spear.
The blue light condensed, and Yan Chaoyang appeared out of thin air. Without any extra words, he thrust the spear forward the moment he grabbed it.
Wang Ba shouted in a low voice. He clasped his palms together and caught the spear head. However, the momentum was so strong that he could not block it completely. He was pushed back involuntarily and knocked out of the Lonely Moon Restaurant.
Shouts of killing came from downstairs. Li Xiang Jun ran downstairs and saw that the door of the Lonely Moon Restaurant had been broken by a person, who fell at her feet.
"Commander Yang!"
The sickly Yang Qing was really turning into a ghost this time. His face was pale and he coughed, unable to speak. In the last moment of his life, he squeezed out two words. "Leave …"
The remaining junior commanders who stayed behind were forced to retreat by the attack outside. They all retreated into the lobby.
"I'll stop them. Madam, leave quickly!"
"No one can leave." Wang Yuanlang sneered and strode in. "I'll settle the scores for the humiliation you gave me last time. None of you can leave!"
When he saw Li Xiang Jun, his eyes brightened. "So it's Madam Xiang. No wonder I smelled a strange fragrance outside. It really intoxicated my soul. Now that the Yanshan Robber has lost his power, why don't you follow me? Your crimes in the Yanshan Robber can be written off."
"Dream on!" Li Xiang Jun scolded. She added, "Mister Second might not lose. Don't be too happy!"
Wang Yuanlang laughed. "Haha, Yan Li is already dead. You're still resisting."
"What did you say?" Li Xiang Jun's face turned pale.
Wang Yuanlang grinned. "I said he's dead. He died in the White Sun Palace. If you know what's good for you, tell me the true identity of the Yan Dragon Slayer and come with me. Otherwise …"
Boom!
At that moment, a loud noise came from outside the building, followed by a lot of screams. Someone even screamed and flew in. It was a fully armed soldier of the Martial God Army. His armor was destroyed by some leaked energy and he was killed.
Li Xiang Jun forced herself to calm down and said, "Mister Second is different now …"
However, before she could finish, Yan Chaoyang flew in. He spat out a mouthful of blood in mid-air and fell to the ground with a pale face.
At that moment, the entire Lonely Moon Building was on the verge of collapse.
Wang Ba walked out of the crowd. He was surrounded by a strong aura. He looked like a god of war had descended. His eyes were cold.
"Mister Second!" Li Xiang Jun hurriedly helped Yan Chaoyang up.
Yan Chaoyang stood up with the help of the Dragon Soul Spear. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. He was still expressionless.
"Yan Chaoyang, I won't kill you because you're a talent," Wang Ba said slowly. "As long as you tell me where Yan Shiyi is hiding and the true identity of the Yan Dragon Slayer, I promise I won't kill anyone."
Yan Zhaoyang gently broke away from Li Xiang Jun's support and took two steps forward. A violent blue True Qi gushed out from his body and transformed into a knight with a spear in his hand.
In an instant, it was as if thousands of horses were galloping on the ground.
Wang Yuanlang and the rest felt their scalps go numb. Their expressions changed and they could not help but take two steps back.
"Back off." Wang Ba waved his hands and smiled. "Alright. Although there's only Yan Second here today, I can still see the will of the Yanshan Robber."
True Qi surged out of his body like a stream and transformed into thousands of horses galloping. However, it was a turbulent river.
It was the Great River Heart Technique.
The moment they collided, the entire street turned into ashes.
