Chapter 724: Chapter 207: Shocking the whole county! Hundreds of officers and soldiers besiege! (10,000-word mega Chapter, please subscribe)_6

What a pity.

The space is too confined!

Just at that moment, Yun Jiuqing’s peripheral vision suddenly caught Daoist Priest Fan, who had been sitting in a chair, standing up leisurely.

After stabbing an enemy in the abdomen with the Red Jade Short Sword, Yun Jiuqing paused and thought, "What is Daoist Priest Fan doing..."

She realized.

Daoist Priest Fan...

Was about to make a move!

"Get out of the way!" Yun Jiuqing hurriedly warned Liu Feng and Xing Fengzi beside her. She said, "Daoist Priest Fan is about to strike!"

Upon hearing Yun Jiuqing’s words, Liu Feng and Xing Fengzi shivered and, without a word, quickly dodged to one side—because they feared that Daoist Fan Wu’s move could sweep them up too.

The fallout from every attack made by Daoist Fan Wu had already left a psychological shadow on both of them!

Yun Jiuqing was no exception; after pushing back the enemy in front of her, she also quickly hid in a corner.

The sudden dispersal of these three people, each hiding in a different direction, confused the Magistrate’s lackeys.

The lackeys of the Magistrate couldn’t understand why Yun Jiuqing and the others were reacting this way.

After all, their injuries didn’t seem that severe!

Why did they suddenly hide, as if avoiding some primordial fierce beast?

On seeing this, the Iron Mountain County arrest officer was overly excited and shouted, "They’re retreating! They’re afraid! These rebels are stressed with fear! These three must have sustained serious injuries! Even if they’re not injured, they must have run out of energy!"

"Block their escape, don’t let them get away! If they do, you’ll answer to me, the arrest officer! Charge, now! Kill them before they can counterattack!!"

A group of weapon-bearing men... could hardly resist cursing this arrest officer—why don’t you go yourself? Always ranting here, and constantly threatening and enticing!

Of course, such thoughts were only muttered in their minds, none dared to voice them out loud.

And many people shared the same thoughts as the Iron Mountain County arrest officer; they felt the moment to counterattack had finally arrived!

Having so many of their own entangled with just three individuals was simply too embarrassing.

Now that they saw signs of defeat in Yun Jiuqing and the others,

How could they not be excited?!

How could they not be thrilled?!

"Constable Sir, something doesn’t feel right. Look at that big guy, he hasn’t moved until now, but it seems like he’s standing up. Does that big fellow intend to hold us back with his own strength, giving the other three rebels a chance to recover a bit?"

One of the deputy arrest officers from Iron Mountain County had been injured and taken away, while the other reminded the arrest officer.

"Hmm?" The Iron Mountain County arrest officer looked towards Fan Wu and frowned, "This foreigner is indeed tall, taller than our Great Yan Dynasty’s people, but... what of it?"

"In the end, he’s just one person. His three companions are already drained of energy. Does he think he alone can turn the tide?"

The Iron Mountain County arrest officer scoffed, "Don’t indulge in wishful thinking. Even if you threw a general from the army here, it would be a dead end for him."

"Let alone these four guys, who are nothing more than out-of-town rebels!"

Then,

The Iron Mountain County arrest officer saw that tall "rebel" making a fist. This action caused the arrest officer to pause momentarily.

Immediately afterward,

he could hardly suppress a snicker, "This guy, carrying a sword and not using it, actually wants to use his fists? Does he really think he can go toe-to-toe with weapons using just his fists? Tsk tsk... How is that any different from an egg striking a rock?"

"I originally thought this big guy was a formidable character, but now it seems he’s just a bloke with a slow wit, all brawn and no brains."

Just as the constable of Iron Mountain County had made such an assessment,

he saw the giant rebel throw a punch forward.

That punch didn’t land on anyone.

It struck a patch of thin air.

What was this? Warming up? Or was the big guy really just slow-witted?

Just as this lightning-fast thought settled, everyone inside the inn could hear a deafening bang, as if something had just exploded with great force.

It was, shockingly, Daoist Fan Wu’s casual punch that seemed doubtful to kill even a mosquito, that blasted a large cluster of air... forcefully exploding it!

The shockwave that swept forward was visible to the naked eye, making the eyes of every government official, constable, and ranger gape wide in astonishment.

BOOM!!!!

All they felt was as if they had been struck head-on by a rapidly charging carriage. They couldn’t help but spit out mouthfuls of fresh blood.

Their bodies were like torn sacks.

Thrown backwards and flying through the air!

The scene was incredibly shocking, a dense crowd of people, all at once struck by the shockwave and flung violently against the inn’s walls, shattering the wooden structure on impact.

The terrifying shockwave flattened the entire inn, tearing its four walls into splinters, and sending the roof flying high into the sky.

Bricks and tiles flew in all directions, as if the inn had been stuffed with thousands of pounds of explosives.

And then that explosive had been detonated.

Yet there was a slight difference.

Because Daoist Fan Wu had excellent control over the power of his strike, the shattered inn did not affect more people and did not harm the onlooking civilians of Iron Mountain County.

The group of onlookers from Iron Mountain County only felt a fierce boom come from the inn ahead.

The sound was so loud that it made their eardrums thrum.

Then, they watched the inn collapse!

Moreover, they witnessed person after person screaming in agony as they were flung in all directions.

The wind, carrying dust and smoke, blew fiercely in their faces.

The spectacle was indeed magnificent, something many had not seen in their entire lives.

The onlookers of Iron Mountain County.

Were all utterly dumbfounded!!!
