Beijing.
The middle door of the headquarters of a rather large sect was open. The two copper doors had been shattered by a mighty palm strike, and they fell to the ground along with a shattered plate. Inside the headquarters was a black flag that symbolized the sect's glory. It was trampled on mercilessly by the Embroidered Uniform Guards who moved back and forth endlessly.
Thud, thud, thud, thud, thud …
An endless stream of footsteps quickly gathered in the headquarters.
Groups of Embroidered Uniform Guards gathered in the empty space and corridors outside the hall. The shadows of their weapons shone, and they were murderous. They surrounded the hall so tightly that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
A large group of archers around the walls had bows in their hands.
Wherever they looked, they would see arrows pointed at the door of the hall.
The situation was tense.
"The sect master has arrived!"
As a loud and sonorous shout rose, the Embroidered Uniform Guards parted from the door like a tidal wave.
Immediately after, three Embroidered Uniform Guard leaders dressed in luxurious clothes moved swiftly with their swords in hand. They moved past the corpses on the ground and arrived outside the hall.
The person in the lead was built. The veins at his temples bulged, and when he walked forward, he gave off an endless pressure. Once he stood still, he swept his gaze over the area with a cold and fierce gaze. In the end, his gaze landed on the interior of the hall, which had been mostly destroyed and could no longer be concealed.
A large group of men and women in embroidered robes were filled with indignation and fear in the hall of the headquarters. Their weapons faced each other, but they did not take even half a step outside, because there were quite a number of their companions' corpses in front of them. They were covered with arrows!
"I am the sect master of Beijing. I have received orders from the emperor to get rid of all rebels and traitors who dared to steal our tributes!" The man in embroidered robes had a stern expression. He wrapped his fist in his palm towards the sky and announced coldly, "Black Rain Sect has rebelled against their superiors and dared to steal the emperor's tributes! Today, I will let you know the consequences of going against the imperial court. "
"Men!"
The sect master took a step back and swung his arm.
"Everyone in Black Rain Sect! Kill them without mercy! "
Right after he finished speaking, the hundreds of Embroidered Uniform Guards had murderous looks in their eyes.
"Charge!"
Whoosh! Whoosh!
An endless rain of arrows shot out from the top of the walls. The arrows were like lethal weapons, easily piercing through the not-so-thick doors and windows. The final shelter of the Black Rain Sect's people was smashed into smithereens ….
Quite a number of players did not have the space to move or dodge. They could only watch as countless arrows flew at them. Bloody holes appeared on their bodies, and they fell to the ground in droves.
Boom! Boom!
A wave of arrows had just passed by, and the already broken windows and doors were broken by a powerful force. A large group of Embroidered Uniform Guards broke through the walls and charged in like wolves and tigers. They killed whoever they saw!
The people who attacked the headquarters were all elites of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. All of them were in Blessed Realm, and with the high-grade Flying Fish Robes, Heart Protection Mirror, and Soft Armor, their defense was not something a normal player could break.
The disciples of the Black Rain Sect only managed to resist for a few seconds before they realized that they were no match for the Embroidered Uniform Guard. The Embroidered Uniform Guard's momentum was practically unstoppable. The people on their side were dying in droves, and the number of people remaining was dwindling!
The sect master of Black Rain Sect was protected at the very back.
When he saw that there were large holes in the walls of the headquarters and that the people around him were dwindling, he realized that the sect had been destroyed in the blink of an eye. A hint of sadness flashed in his eyes.
"Dogs of the imperial court! Come and kill me! "
With an enraged shout, the sect master of Black Rain Sect lifted the greataxe in his hands and pushed back two Embroidered Uniform Guards like a train. Then, he charged into the crowd!
"Protect the sect master!"
"Attack together!"
"Damn it! Kill them! If we kill one, we'll break even! If we kill two, we'll gain! " Under the sect master's lead, the few Black Rain Sect members had an astonishing fighting spirit erupt from them. They cut off all means of retreat and broke out of the encirclement.
But when they reached the entrance …
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Arrows rained down from the sky. The sect master of the Black Rain Sect didn't even have time to steady himself before he was pierced through the heart by the countless arrows of the archers waiting on the wall outside. The light in his eyes quickly disappeared. "Dong!" He fell to his knees heavily. His arrogant head, filled with indignation and anger, hung down unnaturally.
The slaughter did not last for a long time.
A few minutes later, the foundation of Black Rain Sect's headquarters was destroyed. At the moment the Embroidered Uniform Guards retreated, the sect was completely wiped off the face of the world of martial artists!
This news soon shocked all of World of Martial Arts.
While the news spread, at least thirty sects in Beijing were destroyed by the Embroidered Uniform Guards, Eastern Depot, Western Depot, and Six Doors. None of the sects survived.
When the emperor was angry, the weather changed!
At the same time he mobilized the Embroidered Uniform Guards and other law enforcement organizations to suppress the sects, he gradually increased his strength! With Beijing as the center, it swiftly spread to the surrounding cities.
Soon, the sects received the news, and all those who had stolen the tributes to be stored in their headquarters were terrified out of their wits! The sects in the surrounding cities did not dare to be negligent. They quickly moved.
An extremely small number of sects had originally thought that they would be fine as long as they were not in the capital. While carefully protecting the tributes, they hid in their headquarters and gloated over the misfortune of the other sects. When the imperial court's troops surrounded their headquarters, what awaited them was annihilation.
In one night, at least one hundred sects were destroyed by the imperial court's large law enforcement organization because they did not receive the news or could not respond in time.
During this period of time, the players noticed that as long as they sent the tributes out of the city, the imperial court would not be able to track them down. In fact, the imperial court would not even put a bounty on their sects.
Hence, more sects did not dare to be negligent. They sent all their tributes out of the city and searched for a safe place to wait for the emperor's birthday.
However …
They did not know that even though they managed to hide from the tiger behind them, what awaited them outside the city was a pack of wolves that were even more terrifying than the tiger!
…
Hundreds of people from Purple Sun Sect were fully armed in Xuzhou City. They looked as if they were about to face a great enemy. They escorted the carriage out of the city in a mighty manner. The sect master of Purple Sun Sect had a solemn expression. He led Phantom Jade and a group of elites to personally serve as garrison! They were to protect the carriage!
However …
When they passed through a forest, pained screams and warnings suddenly came from the dense forest.
"Ah …"
"Enemy ambush!"
The scouts protecting them by their sides sent them bad news one after another.
"Everyone, form your formation! Protect the carriage! "
The sect master of Purple Sun Sect reacted very quickly while he sat on his horse. He drew his longsword and calmly gave his orders loudly, causing the slightly panicked sect members around him to quickly calm down.
"Sky Shadow! Bring a group of people inside to take a look. "
"Understood!"
A thin and well-proportioned man quickly received the order and brought ten people into the forest.
Soon after they entered, they seemed to have run into a powerful enemy. Hurried cries of surprise rose, and it was soon followed by chaotic but brief sounds of weapons clashing against each other. The sounds quickly drew closer to them before they swiftly died down. Then, they fell silent.
The battle seemed to have ended near the mountain path. It was very, very close.
"Prepare for battle!"
At that moment, the expression of the sect master of Purple Sun Sect finally changed. He raised his palm high and gave his order. The hundreds of disciples protecting the carriage gathered around it. Their weapons clanged against each other, and they were filled with fighting spirit.
Right when they finished their actions, the sounds of bowstrings being released suddenly came from the forest.
The expressions of the people from Purple Sun Sect changed in shock.
They did not have time to react. A dense wave of arrows came charging at them from both sides of the forest.
The few groups of people at the outermost layer might have swung their weapons to block the arrows with all their might, but they could not withstand the continuous wave of arrows. They quickly fell one by one, layer by layer.
When a large group of bandits with powerful presences charged out of the forest like fierce tigers coming down the mountain, the sect master of Purple Sun Sect's pupils shrank. His face turned pale, and he quickly urged his horse to move.
"Abandon the carriage!
Break out! "
