Chapter 102: Abhorred Evil, Zhuang Thirteen!

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Yancheng had long been in tumultuous waters.

Groups of soldiers had already entered the city and quickly gathered.

A total of three thousand elites, led by General Luo Yun, gathered inside the Xia residence.

Xia Yuanwai personally welcomed them.

“General Luo Yun, you’ve worked hard.”

Xia Yuanwai waved his hand, immediately having people carry boxes in front of the three thousand elites.

“Clatter, clatter.”

The boxes opened, revealing ingots of silver, causing the eyes of all the soldiers to widen.

Xia Yuanwai smiled and said, “General Luo, this is the mobilization fee for the army. If you eliminate the Venomous Sect, there will be rewards as well.”

General Luo Yun’s gaze remained calm as he casually said, “Mr. Xia, this general received orders to mobilize troops into the city to quell the rebellion. Other matters are not within this general’s concern! Speak up, where are those rebels?”

Luo Yun did not come in response to Xia Yuanwai’s invitation.

For such mobilization of troops, there must be official orders. Otherwise, it would be considered the unauthorized movement of troops, akin to treason.

Currently, although the Great Fish Dynasty was in turmoil, it had not completely collapsed. They still temporarily controlled the military.

However, Luo Yun was quite helpless.

𝑓𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Because Xia Yuanwai had bribed his superior.

When given the order by his superior, he had no choice but to dispatch troops.

He knew that the Venomous Sect was not a rebellion, but it was an order, and he had no other option.

Fortunately, Xia Yuanwai was generous and wouldn’t let him make the trip for nothing. Moreover, the Venomous Sect wasn’t a virtuous group, so Xia Yuanwai’s ability to spend a large sum of silver to mobilize the army was also his skill.

“General Luo, I will lead the escort team to act together with the army.”

The escort team consisted of nearly a hundred people, and most of them were martial artists.

Xia Yuanwai, along with the main army, rushed towards a residential courtyard in the south of the city.

He had received information earlier that it was the Venomous Sect’s stronghold.

Xia Yuanwai had already investigated and found out that his daughter had been manipulated by the Venomous Sect using the Soul-Enchanting Incense. The goal was to use his daughter as a breakthrough point to plot against the entire Xia family.

This made Xia Yuanwai furious.

He even spared no expense to bribe the garrison in Yancheng, mobilizing a large army to besiege the Venomous Sect.

The army quickly arrived at the Venomous Sect’s stronghold.

At General Luo Yun’s command, the army immediately surrounded the Venomous Sect’s stronghold.

“Listen, rebels inside! Drop your weapons, kneel on the ground, or face the consequences!”

Luo Yun’s voice echoed into the stronghold.

However, there was silence inside, with no sign of movement.

Xia Yuanwai furrowed his brows slightly, feeling that something was amiss.

But Luo Yun paid no attention. As a commanding general, he wouldn’t concern himself with conspiracies.

“Charge in! Kill any resistors without mercy!”

“Bang.”

With Luo Yun’s order, the soldiers quickly broke open the main gate.

Simultaneously, a barrage of crossbow bolts rained down into the courtyard.

“Ah…”

A series of screams erupted.

Behind the main gate, many martial artists were lying in ambush. However, under the torrent of arrows, these Venomous Sect martial artists turned into hedgehogs.

Dozens of Venomous Sect members were shot into hedgehogs, lying on the ground.

Wave after wave of arrow rain was followed by infantry, slowly advancing into the courtyard, organized in small groups with a certain formation.

The martial artists from Xia Yuanwai’s escort team also looked with solemn expressions.

This was the difference between an army and individual martial artists.

Although individual martial artists had formidable personal strength, facing a well-trained army of hundreds or thousands, it was challenging to resist in a head-on confrontation.

Even Organ Refining Realm martial artists faced the dense barrage of arrows without wearing protective armor; they would end up as hedgehogs.

Of course, this required elite soldiers.

Some poorly trained soldiers might scatter under the charge of martial artists.

But the soldiers under Luo Yun’s command were obviously very elite, disciplined, and well-trained.

As the elite soldiers advanced, Xia Yuanwai and General Luo Yun also entered.

They stepped into the hall of the courtyard but found it empty.

“Where are the people?”

Luo Yun looked at Xia Yuanwai.

Xia Yuanwai also furrowed his brows. With Xia family intelligence, this was clearly the Venomous Sect’s stronghold.

“Hmm…”

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and a faint strange fragrance wafted through the air.

One of Xia’s guards, a martial artist in the Organ Refining Realm, seemed to realize something and immediately covered his nose and mouth, shouting, “Not good, it’s poisonous…”

But it was too late.

The several hundred soldiers who had entered the hall one after another all fell to the ground.

They weren’t dead but completely powerless, collapsing on the ground.

After all, in such a vast space, it was impossible to kill everyone with just some poison mist.

However, rendering them completely powerless was something that the Venomous Sect excelled at.

After all, the Venomous Sect was an expert in using poison!

Luo Yun and the others were also poisoned.

But the bodies of Organ Refining Realm martial artists were robust, providing some resistance to the poison.

As for Xia Yuanwai, he immediately took out a pill from his pocket, similar to an antidote, and swallowed it, resisting the poison.

“Swoosh.”

At this moment, dozens, if not hundreds, of figures surged out from the hall.

Leading them was none other than Right Envoy Wang Feng.

Wang Feng sneered, “Mr. Xia, you’re really wealthy and generous, mobilizing the official army.”

“However, what does the official army amount to? Daring to step into the stronghold of my Venomous Sect, you truly don’t know life from death!”

Seeing this scene, General Luo Yun immediately retreated.

“Retreat!”

There were still a large number of soldiers outside.

As long as they didn’t enter the hall, the Venomous Sect’s poison would be ineffective..
