Chapter 667
Exterminate them all! Leave no future trouble.
"Junior Sister Lianhua, why is your face so pale all of a sudden?"
"Huh? You're injured!"
"Who hurt you? I never expected that someone could hurt you after you came to Korea?"
Inside a huge manor in Andong County, on the Korean Peninsula.
When the manor lord Wen Xicheng saw Meng Lianhua's pale face, he was startled.
He was the Grand Preceptor of the Goryeo Dynasty, the owner of Munhee Manor, and the strongest man in Goryeo.
Few people know that he is a disciple of the Netherworld Sect.
"Senior Brother Wen, please keep a close watch on me and send out assassins to investigate the movements of the Western Gate of the Great Qian Dynasty and see if they have entered Hong City."
"In the coming days, we must keep a close eye on their movements. If we failed to kill Prince Qian, Chen Jie, this time, next time I will make sure he is torn to pieces."
"Arrange a secret room for me. My primordial spirit is injured and I need to rest as soon as possible."
"Give me three days. After I recover from my injuries, I will personally go and retrieve the Sunset Frost Sword."
Meng Lianhua's face was pale, but she did not appear disheveled.
She was still wearing a white dress, and she looked so charming.
At least in Wen Xicheng's eyes, his junior sister Meng Lianhua was the most beautiful woman in the world.
"Junior sister, your primordial spirit—!" Wen Xicheng exclaimed in surprise.
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Just do as I say."
Meng Lianhua, the Holy Maiden of the Netherworld Sect, took a deep breath and said coldly:
"Unexpectedly, Jian Wuming, the sect leader of Kunlun Sword Sect, was by the side of Prince Qian, Chen Jie. Unexpectedly, all his efforts were in vain in the end."
"To get rid of Prince Qian, Chen Jie, we must first kill everyone around him."
Upon hearing this, Wen Xicheng did not say anything more.
He turned and ordered his servants, "Someone, prepare a secret room for me!"
Wenxi Manor was the largest manor in Andong County of the Goryeo Dynasty, covering an area of over 500 acres, even several times larger than Taihu Manor in Huainan of the Youming Sect.
This was a private forbidden area, and also the most mysterious place in the Goryeo Dynasty.
Moon Hee-seong was originally just a strategist in the Goryeo Dynasty.
He was well-read and skilled in martial arts, and enjoyed great prestige in the Goryeo Dynasty.
In particular, he later became the national advisor of the Goryeo Dynasty, and his martial arts skills reached the pinnacle, making him the strongest person in Goryeo.
For a while,
Wenxi Manor became even more mysterious, and very few people could get within a hundred meters of it.
in fact,
Moon Hee-sung was an exceptionally intelligent man. He was not only one of the disciples of the Netherworld Sect of the Great Qian Dynasty, but also the most important spy of the Netherworld Sect in Goryeo.
in addition,
He also had close ties with the Eastern Empire, and was one of the most important figures in the Eastern Empire. He was an ally of Miyamoto Musashi and secretly controlled the economic and military lifeline of the entire Goryeo Kingdom.
The entire Wenxi Manor possesses immense wealth, so much so that it could be said to be richer than a country.
and,
In secret, there are many skilled individuals, and a large number of assassins have been trained.
The guards alone numbered in the thousands, and they also had their own army, operating independently of the Goryeo Dynasty.
"Damn it, how could Prince Qian, Chen Jie, have such a terrifying bomb in his hands?"
"He integrated his primordial spirit into the bomb, shielding it from danger. Moreover, the power of that bomb far exceeded that of ordinary bombs, making it impossible to avoid."
"No one in the world has ever thought of breaking through the protective aura of the primordial spirit in this way."
"How did this kid make that bomb? It was able to bypass my sixth sense of danger."
"But this kid is really ruthless. He actually used the method of dying together with me to break my primordial spirit power."
"Fortunately, I finally abandoned the Sunset Frost Sword and used the power of the spirit sword to block the impact of the explosion."
"Otherwise, I really might not have been able to come back."
On an artificial hill in Wenxi Villa, a luxurious pavilion exudes the fragrance of sandalwood.
Standing on the top floor of the attic, you can see the entire Wenxi Villa at a glance.
This is considered the highest point in the entire Wenxi Manor, surrounded by watchtowers and arrow towers.
The entire artificial hill was surrounded by hidden sentries.
Almost every secret outpost has skilled individuals lying in ambush.
It will be very difficult for anyone to get close to this artificial hill.
Even a sword saint-level expert would be alerted if he approached the pavilion on the artificial hill.
Meng Lianhua, the Holy Maiden of the Netherworld Sect, is located in the pavilion on the artificial hill.
boom--!
She circulated her internal energy to calm herself down.
Then,
She took out an exquisite wooden box from beside her.
Upon opening the box, it was found to be filled with sandalwood.
Light the incense with a flint.
A faint fragrance permeated the air, while a wisp of smoke swirled around, creating a dreamlike and enchanting atmosphere, like a paradise on earth.
This is neither the kind of incense used in the imperial palace to calm the soul, nor is it ordinary sandalwood.
This is a kind of incense made from the marrow of deep-sea creatures, used to repair the soul. It is called "Mind-Concentrating Incense"!
The Mind-Concentrating Incense is a secret recipe of the Netherworld Sect, and it cannot be bought anywhere else.
Ordinary people will become extremely excited, clear-headed, and full of power simply by smelling the calming incense.
For powerful individuals at or above the Divine Indestructible Realm, this 'Mind-Concentrating Incense' is truly worlds apart, the strongest spiritual medicine in the mortal world.
This incense is a secret medicine from the Great Qian Divine Sect. It was passed down and refined over many years, with countless famous doctors and Saint-level experts making improvements before it was finally perfected.
The box of Mind-Concentrating Incense that Meng Lianhua carried alone was priceless.
After lighting a concentration incense stick, Meng Lianhua continued to circulate her cultivation technique.
The primordial spirit and dharma image around her began to gradually condense.
In the dim light, it was as if streaks of starlight were falling, radiating a unique brilliance.
Her primordial spirit slowly condensed, and it turned out to be a poisonous spider.
This shows that she cultivated poison techniques, which is why she was able to condense the primordial spirit of the poisonous spider.
Just like Chen Jie cultivated the Dragon Claw Hand, the primordial spirit Dharma form he condensed will become a giant dragon.
The poisonous spider appeared as a mist, swirling around and gradually solidifying.
As more and more starlight gathered, the poisonous spider grew larger and larger.
To the end,
The starlight poured down like a waterfall, a breathtaking sight.
"The Undying Body of the Poisonous Spider of the Primordial Spirit!"
boom!
Meng Lianhua suddenly opened her eyes.
this moment,
The paleness on her face had disappeared, replaced by a rosy glow.
As expected of the Mind-Concentrating Incense!
Despite the severe injury to her primordial spirit, she unexpectedly recovered more than half of it in less than half a day after using the Mind-Concentrating Incense.
"It's time to retrieve my Sunset Frost Sword! This sword belongs to Meng Tuo, the strongest warrior in the Divine Sect."
"After retrieving the Sunset Frost Sword, I will place it in the extreme cold for three years of veneration, allowing my primordial spirit to re-merge with the power of the icy barrier. Then, no one will be able to take my spiritual sword away!"
call--!
With that thought in mind, she couldn't help but take a deep breath, and after standing up, a sharp killing intent appeared on her lips.
"Huh? What's going on!?"
Just as Meng Lianhua stood up from the ground.
She sensed that thirty miles away, battle flags were fluttering, steel chariots were like a forest, and cannons were rolling in, pulled by warhorses.
What's even more frightening is that it's not in the same direction.
Instead, armored legions were stationed in all four directions around Wenxi Manor in Andong County. They possessed state-of-the-art artillery, heavy machine guns, and assault rifles; they were armed to the teeth.
Each direction had more than a regiment of troops, and the total number of troops from all four directions exceeded 15,000.
The Iron Blood Legion's destination was clearly Wenxi Manor.
They're surrounded!
Unexpectedly, the entire Wenxi Manor in Andong County was surrounded.
Clang—clang—clang—!
A tremendous sound came from several watchtowers surrounding Wenxi Villa.
This is a warning sound!
The sound was urgent, like encountering a tsunami or storm, making one feel anxious.
This is a warning bell specially built by Wenxi Villa.
Specifically designed for early warning, the watchtowers would immediately wave command flags to signal alarm bells once a situation was detected.
This alarm bell is cast in bronze, much like the bells used in temples, and once it is rung, its sound can travel very far.
The sound of the bell could be heard clearly from dozens of miles away.
The bronze-cast alarm bell is quite expensive.
Normally, only royal palaces or temples would use such bronze bells.
In special circumstances, the bell can be rung continuously so that its sound can be heard within a radius of hundreds of miles.
Furthermore, the Goryeo Dynasty's industry had not yet developed, and long-distance communication still relied on carrier pigeons and bells.
The sound of bells is the best way to convey emergency information.
When the bell tolls, it means that something is very urgent.
"Junior sister! Something terrible has happened! Ximentang's army has more than 15,000 soldiers and is preparing to besiege Wenxi Manor."
"They have entered the 30-mile range and will arrive within an hour."
"Weren't Ximentang's troops always tied down in Busan? Why would they suddenly send troops to our Andong County?"
Just as Meng Lianhua sensed the danger.
At almost the same time,
The large clock in Wenxi Villa rang.
Whoosh-!
A figure flashed and instantly appeared inside the attic.
Although Moon Hee-sung had been lusting after his junior sister's body for a long time, there were priorities.
Sensing the danger, he dared not think of anything else and could only rush to Meng Lianhua to report the situation.
"I am the Grand Preceptor of the Goryeo Dynasty, and my status is almost equivalent to that of the King of Goryeo!"
"The Ximentang is merely the private army of the Daqian Dynasty. Even if the Qian King controls the situation of the Daqian Dynasty, our Goryeo Dynasty has never been colonized by the Daqian."
"Damn it, what right does Ximen Tang have to send troops to annihilate my Wenxi Manor?"
Upon receiving the news, Moon Hee-sung was furious.
"Hmph! These are the elite special operations troops of the Ximen Hall of the Great Qian Dynasty!"
"That bastard Chen Jie, the Prince of Qian, is indeed ruthless and vindictive. I just intercepted him in Qingyang County, but I didn't expect him to find my whereabouts so quickly."
"In less than a day, he launched an attack on Andong County. Is he trying to hunt me down?!"
"It seems there are quite a few spies from the Great Qian Dynasty within the Goryeo Dynasty. My whereabouts were discovered so quickly."
Standing atop the pavilion, Meng Lianhua looked up at the army galloping rapidly in the distance, her expression turning extremely solemn.
After thinking about it,
She said to Wen Xicheng beside her:
“Senior brother, you control the situation on the entire Korean Peninsula, and at the same time you cooperate with Miyamoto Musashi of the East. You have long been a thorn in Ximentang’s side.”
“Since they have already begun attacking Busan, they will attack your Moonhee Manor sooner or later.”
"Xi Mentang's goal is very simple: first and foremost, he wants to seize all the wealth you have accumulated over the years."
"Secondly, it's to intimidate our Netherworld Sect and also to give Miyamoto Musashi, the number one swordsman in the East, a taste of his power."
finished,
She looked up at the approaching elite troops of Ximentang in the distance, her expression growing increasingly solemn.
"So what do we do next?"
Wen Xicheng looked up at Meng Lianhua.
in fact,
Upon hearing the news, he remained calm and had already formulated his own plan.
Contrary to his outward panic, he had already calmed down.
Although he was the senior brother of Meng Lianhua, the Holy Maiden of the Netherworld Sect, he had to obey Meng Lianhua's arrangements in terms of status and position.
Netherworld Sect!
This power, which has been passed down for nearly six hundred years, has only had five Holy Maidens.
Meng Lianhua is the most outstanding of all the saintesses, and the only one still alive today.
"Most of Ximentang's troops are ordinary soldiers. I alone am enough to fight my way out."
Meng Lianhua snorted coldly and said with icy eyes:
"Don't be afraid of them. Quickly gather the best fighters and all the suicide squad members to form a suicide squad, which I will personally lead to break out from the east!"
"I will personally carve out an opening, and whoever stands in my way, I will destroy!"
She has the confidence to say such things.
How could a mid-level Martial Saint be afraid of an ordinary army?
Wen Xicheng frowned and said in a low voice, "Junior sister, since Ximentang dares to launch a large-scale siege in Andong County, then there must be experts to restrain us."
Meng Lianhua shook her head and said in a deep voice:
"Don't worry, we're not going to fight them to the death, we're going to break through!"
"We can retreat at any time as long as we fight our way out."
"Furthermore, think about it. If he ordered Ximentang's most elite troops to besiege Andong County, wouldn't the situation in Busan City be advantageous to the Japanese Kwantung Army?"
"As long as the Kwantung Army still exists, your foundation in Korea will one day rise again."
finished,
She narrowed her eyes, her whole body radiating murderous intent, and said:
"Go and gather your men. I'll lead the charge; what experts could they possibly have to stop me?"
"If anyone from the Kunlun Sword Sect dares to block my way, I'll just kill them!"
Wen Xicheng nodded and said, "Okay! I'll make the arrangements right now."
As a disciple of the Netherworld Sect, he also has a complicated relationship with the Japanese.
In fact, once Wen Xicheng learned that Xi Mentang had come to his door, he had no way out.
"Guards, bring me my Xuan Iron Spear and put on my Xuan Iron Armor!"
Wen Xicheng gave an order to his subordinates.
Next,
He shouted to the elite troops beside the attic:
"Wenxi Thirty-Six Guards, listen up! Each of you lead eighteen elite soldiers and prepare to break through the encirclement!"
"Bring all the heavy artillery and machine guns from the basement of the manor, and activate the drawbridge, towers, and moat!"
"All the idlers in the manor were gathered and imprisoned in the cellar in the northwest corner to prevent them from causing trouble."
"In addition, the valuables in the manor will be concentrated in the underground river and transported from there to the secret dock by the sea."
He put up a resistance, but at the same time, he was also preparing to run away.
Two-pronged!
"Furthermore, let the Seven Netherworld Masters accompany the Holy Maiden and fight their way out to protect her safety."
Wen Xicheng was indeed a fierce general. After giving his orders, he was the first to rush out.
Under Wen Xicheng's arrangement, the entire Wenxi Manor immediately began operations.
The troop movements, the arrangement of suicide squads, and the formation of battle formations were all carried out in an orderly and efficient manner.
This can be seen.
Wenxi Manor is far beyond the reach of ordinary martial arts forces. (End of Chapter)
