Chapter 218: Chapter 134: Sword Sweeps Eight Directions, Ambush on the Long Street (Part 2)

Therefore, everyone should not have any hesitation... The reason for having you come forth is very simple, that Xuanwu Guard’s force must be in the hands of our own people.

To control the troops, the power naturally can’t be too weak, so you were chosen."

The reason for saying so much is because Chen Ping discovered that of those reaching Tier Four, there were only two original disciples of the Primordial Martial Hall.

One was Senior Brother Zhang Gu, and the other was Second Senior Sister Han Xiaoru.

They both mastered the Primordial Silver Body, and in the mundane Jianghu, they are considered average first-rate experts.

If actually separated out, they could open a small martial hall in the county town, and still claim dominance, gaining a fairly large reputation. Actually, it’s already quite good.

However, compared with the original disciples of the Changkong Martial Arts Hall, it’s somewhat less impressive.

Cultivation of the Seven-Star Sword reached the Opening the Eight Extraordinary Meridians stage, with four Tier Four experts in total.

One is the former Changkong Martial Hall’s senior brother, and now the tenth junior brother Li Yangguang.

His Eight Meridians Perfection, Seven-Star Sword is about to reach Great Success.

Also, the eleventh junior brother Zhou Xian, twelfth junior brother Zang Wu, thirteenth junior brother Tan Sitong, and fourteenth junior brother Zhao Lingfeng.

Each opened three or four meridians, or five or six meridians, all are experts.

From this aspect, Gao Yue’s teaching disciples are actually stronger than Han Wushang.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the Primordial Golden Body Technique is relatively difficult to practice.

"Those reaching Iron Body Realm Perfection and Twelve Main Meridians Perfection, step forward."

This time, quite a few stepped forward.

Five from the Primordial Martial Hall, twelve disciples from the original Changkong Martial Arts Hall stepped forward.

"You twenty-three, follow me out of the city, the rest, keep alert and defend the martial hall."

Chen Ping turned back to see Master Sima Rou and Han Wushang watching quietly from afar, he nodded, and said no more.

He knew, given Han Wushang’s current physical condition, the Primordial Martial Hall would hardly face any trouble.

An intact Innate Level expert is stationed, with Sima Rou about to break through to Innate, assisting on the side, along with hundreds of disciples guarding from all sides.

Unless there come two or three Innate experts at once, there is no real threat to them.

Thus, the key to victory is not within the Primordial Martial Hall, but outside.

This battle might break the siege situation around the Primordial Martial Hall.

Speed is of the essence; the chosen personnel are valued for quality, not quantity.

Chen Ping likes to seize the initiative; when the enemy hasn’t moved, he doesn’t move; when the enemy intends to act, he acts first.

So, he plans to strike first.

With some time left before nightfall, the opponent certainly wouldn’t expect that he would, without any preparation, directly take the risk of counterattacking.

When neither side is fully prepared, there is a chance to break them one by one, to fight a chaotic battle.

Otherwise, when the enemy gathers forces from all sides, unite them, and then attack the Primordial Martial Hall, it will be difficult to resist.

"Is Senior Brother Zhuo here?"

"Here, here."

Only seeing Zhuo Yunfei clad in the Arresting Officer Uniform, slightly sweating on his forehead...

Having entered the Primordial Martial Hall, he first paid respects to Han Wushang and Sima Rou, calling them ’Uncle Master,’ and then walked towards Chen Ping with a shocked expression.

He sensed the heavy atmosphere of slaughter in the martial hall courtyard.

"Outside the city military camp, please read the government office’s appointment aloud, not for anything else, just to lessen the bloodshed," Chen Ping clasped his hands.

"Junior Brother, feel free to instruct, no reason to refuse."

Zhuo Yunfei’s face became serious, hesitated a moment, "Isn’t acting like this too hasty?"

"I don’t want to rush either, but the opponent is unwilling to wait." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Chen Ping did not offer further explanation.

He waved his hand.

"Set off."

With the command.

He was the first to mount his horse, carrying the Black Dragon Sword, leaving the Primordial Martial Hall.

Following behind him, including Zhuo Yunfei, twenty-four riders followed, gradually accelerating, heading directly toward North City.

...

The sound of hoofbeats echoed along the road.

"Changping Street is safe."

"Ping’an Inn is safe..."

"Linhai Residence is safe."

The disciples called out loudly from beside him.

Zhuo Yunfei listened, and cold sweat appeared on his neck.

How long has it been, this junior brother has already arranged ambushes along the way out of the city...

He had received the news, knowing that from the moment Xuanwu Guard’s spies appeared outside the Primordial Martial Hall to watch, only three sticks of incense had passed.

In such a short time, the Primordial Martial Hall has already conducted capture, interrogation, mobilization, deployment, and probing various affairs.

It hasn’t been long, and they’ve already reached North City.

No matter how Zhang Lianshan from Xuanwu Guard gathers troops, he likely won’t react in time.

At most, only small groups of experts can intercept and delay a bit.

"Brother Zhuo, we’re all from the Primordial Sect, originally one family.

Next, the Arresting Officer’s Room will need your assistance to prevent any criminals from taking advantage to rob and harass the residents.

In chaotic times, heavy penalties must be applied, not fearing killing, but fearing the blade is blunt."

"What?"

Zhuo Yunfei was bewildered.

Listening to these words, he almost felt that Chen Ping before him was already the Lord Prefecture of Xingqing Prefecture.

The horse moved swiftly, pedestrians on the street hurriedly dodged, amidst the noise, his eyes were blank, unsure of how to respond.

They plan step by step.

You’re seeing ten steps, a hundred steps ahead.

How can you think so far ahead when you’re not even on duty yet?

Before he could think of what to say, Chen Ping’s voice reached his ears again.

"For those at the Primordial Mountain, the elders can descend the mountain if willing, not forced if unwilling.

However, your Seven of the Primordial and those newly initiated junior brothers, all should descend the mountain, come under my command. Keeping the mountain is unnecessary...
