The town was silent, not even the sound of insects or birds could be heard, especially in the second half of the night, when not even the sound of the wind was heard. The whole town was like a sealed stone chamber, filled with a depressing atmosphere.
Inside the City Lord's Mansion, the fat City Lord had already fallen asleep, with two pretty girls lying on his left and right. There were scratches and teeth marks on the girls' bodies, and some tear marks at the corners of their eyes.
The monk with two swords on his back stood outside the house, looking up at the night sky with a hint of caution in his eyes. He always felt that something was wrong today. This quiet town seemed to be filled with murderous aura everywhere.
Silently, a large mass of dark clouds appeared, as black as ink, covering the entire starry sky. The stars and the moon lost their light, and the entire town fell into darkness and deathly silence.
Late at night, dark clouds pressed towards the ground, pressing down like a mountain. A gloomy atmosphere filled every corner of the town, as if a big storm would come at any time.
A dull atmosphere surged, and hundreds of figures shuttled through the town like ghosts, lurking a hundred meters away from the City Lord's Mansion without revealing a trace of breath fluctuations.
"Action now? It's already late at night." Bei Li was lying on the grass, his face covered with a black cloth, leaving only a pair of star-like eyes visible.
Liu Xun didn't say anything after hearing this. He just glanced at the five hundred masked monks behind him and said softly: "Before we start, I want to say a few words to you! Now that we have come to this point, there is no way back! We can only go all the way. We are basically locals, so maybe we will meet a lot of acquaintances on this trip!"
At this point, Liu Xun took a deep breath and then said: "But remember, you must kill gods when you meet them, and behead Buddhas when you meet them! Because your actions tonight are related to the survival of tens of thousands of lives! No matter what the result tomorrow is, whether you survive or not! If you are alive, you will be respected by all people! If you die, you will still be remembered forever!"
As soon as the words fell, the five hundred monks' blood boiled and their eyes were bloodshot, while Liu Xun's eyes swept across the City Lord's Mansion. Since he came here, he had been observing the City Lord's Mansion, looking for the location of the monk who robbed the land.
And now he found it. He glanced at Beili, and Beili nodded. The two of them turned into two shadows and went towards the City Lord's Mansion. At the same time, the monk with two swords on his back changed his expression, and the two swords behind him were unsheathed.
As if sensing the breath fluctuations of the dual-sword monk, Liu Xun swept past a gatekeeper monk, cut off his head in an instant, and then kicked his head a hundred meters away.
When the head fell to the ground, a column of blood spurted out from the neck of the headless body. In an instant, five hundred monks moved together! At this moment, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky! The lightning illuminated the town, breaking the tranquility at this time.
Liu Xun cursed inwardly, why did the heaven only oppose him! But this was no longer the time to endure, he could only fight, and if he killed the city lord with lightning speed, he would win.
"Take off the veil. All living creatures in this mansion will be killed!" Liu Xun kicked away the headless corpse in front of him, took off the veil, and shouted loudly.
Seeing this, the five hundred monks including Beili hesitated for a moment. Take off the veil! Liu Xun wanted to fight to the death by showing his true face! Although hesitant, the five hundred monks took off their veils at the next moment and shouted in unison: "Kill!"
Liu Xun narrowed his eyes slightly at this time, and the Qilin Thorn in his hand glowed with a cold light. He had no better way at this time. Since they had been exposed, they would definitely face an encirclement and suppression by thousands of monks.
They would definitely be in danger of death at that time. In this case, they might as well burn their boats and take off the veil. If this incident failed, not only would the five hundred monks die, but even their relatives and friends would be implicated, so they had to fight to the death.
Originally, Liu Xun chose the assassination tactic, but due to a sudden flash of lightning, they were all exposed, so he thought of an old saying on Earth: Burn the boats and cross the river, and the 120 Qin passes will eventually belong to Chu; sleep on firewood and taste gall, and the 3,000 Yue troops can swallow Wu!
This kind of strategy of sleeping on straw and tasting gall is definitely not applicable. How can he endure the situation? So he can only burn his boats.
"Boom!..."
Thunder rumbled, sword lights flashed, the cold sword energy, the biting murderous aura, and the deafening noise filled the entire town courtyard in an instant.
At this moment, the murderous intent was like the sea, sweeping in all directions. Large sections of buildings collapsed and turned into powder. Under the invisible murderous intent of more than 500 monks, nothing could be preserved and everything ceased to exist.
Sword energy soared into the sky, sword light split the sky, and the blazing light merged with the dark clouds in the sky. The city no longer existed, crushed by the sharp sword energy and murderous aura.
People once said that when a cultivator gets angry, blood will flow for thousands of miles and mountains and rivers will collapse! What's more, if five hundred cultivators are angry together, a robber cultivator can break a huge rock, not to mention the current battle between a thousand cultivators.
The walls of the City Lord's Mansion collapsed, and the palaces also collapsed one by one with the sword light. The servants in the City Lord's Mansion, as well as the relatives, wives and concubines of the fat City Lord, were now pale and dull, and had become numb.
Because since the Chinese calendar, no one has ever dared to cause chaos in towns and cities as a monk, let alone rebellion! If the existence in the city knew about this, Liu Xun and others would be completely wiped out! They really didn't expect that someone would dare to do this.
With one sword, Liu Xun chopped off the head of a city guard. His body was covered in blood. He raised his sword and shouted: "Now that things have come to this, there is no way back. We have to kill that damn city lord! Even if we die in the future, we will be worthy of China and the people! If that day really comes, Liu will accompany you on the road to the underworld! But today, we just want to have a clear conscience!"
As soon as Liu Xun finished speaking, he felt a chill coming from behind him. His face changed, and he used his sword to resist without thinking.
"Bang!..." A sound of weapons colliding was heard, and Liu Xun's face changed again. He glanced at the blood flowing from his palm and wondered in his heart: "What kind of power is this that can so easily crack my palm!"
Liu Xun's arms were still shaking, but the owner of the sword had no intention of stopping, and his attack was even more fierce than before.
He cursed inwardly, but did not dare to turn around, because the man's attack was as dense as raindrops. You know, in a life-and-death battle, even the slightest negligence is enough to determine the outcome.
"Bang!..." The sound of the weapons colliding became even more piercing. Liu Xun's knuckles were already bloody and his arms were numb to the point of no feeling. However, a trace of brutality flashed in his eyes. Was this the first time he was beaten so badly without seeing the other person's face? (To be continued)
