A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips as he raised his hand and ordered, "Charge in! Leave no one alive!"
"Yes!"
The night watchmen responded in unison, their momentum unstoppable, and followed closely behind.
At this moment, the Zhang residence was in complete chaos.
The servants hurriedly gathered in the front yard to set up defenses, trying to guard the gate.
However, before they could fully establish themselves,
A deafening crash suddenly came from outside.
Then came the sounds of boulders shattering and timber breaking—
The heavy iron gate was actually smashed open!
Hearing the commotion, Zhang Feng rushed out of the hall, his face filled with horror.
"What happened? Who let them break in?!"
He roared and glared at his men around him.
"Master, that man surnamed Wei is not human at all, we can't stop him at all!"
A servant boy collapsed to the ground, trembling as he pointed towards the door.
As the smoke and dust dissipated, a tall figure stepped into the courtyard first; it was Wei Changxuan.
His expression was cold and stern, and he exuded a menacing aura.
Dozens of night watchmen followed behind, each with fresh bloodstains on their weapons.
It was as if they had just returned from a hellish slaughterhouse.
"Zhang Feng, your death is near."
Wei Changxuan said coldly, "The position of Minister of War is a crucial one for the imperial court."
It is truly unfair that such a corrupt person has occupied it for so many years!
Today I will act on behalf of Heaven to cleanse this house of evil!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Feng's expression changed drastically. He suppressed his fear and argued forcefully:
"Wei Changxuan, how dare you!"
Trespassing on official property and indiscriminately killing innocent people—your actions constitute treason!
"Hmph, treason?"
Wei Changxuan scoffed.
"Even if it's treason! So what?"
Wei Changxuan's words shocked everyone present.
This terrified Zhang Feng so much that he stammered and didn't know what to do.
"You...you...you really dare to rebel?!"
Before the words were finished, hurried footsteps echoed through the courtyard from the other side.
It turned out that several guards loyal to the Zhang family had fought desperately to break through the encirclement and rushed towards Wei Changxuan with sharp blades in hand.
But before they could even get close, Wei Changxuan activated the Sky Shuttle in his hand again.
Several blades, gleaming with a chilling light, materialized and swarmed in like locusts...
In an instant, screams rose and fell.
Before the guards could react, they were cut into pieces, their blood splattering everywhere.
Witnessing all this, Zhang Feng finally broke down completely.
His knees buckled and he knelt on the ground, pleading desperately:
"Lord Wei, spare my life! I'm willing to confess to all my crimes!"
"If only you would spare my life..."
"Hmph, only now do you think of repenting?"
Wei Changxuan slowly approached, his eyes filled with disdain and contempt.
"You think I'd believe your nonsense?"
Don't worry, I already know what I need to know.
Today, only ruins remain here; there will be no survivors.
Having said that, Wei Changxuan stopped wasting words and directly waved his hand to order his men to seize the man.
Meanwhile, the night watchmen quickly dispersed to various locations to search for any remaining fish.
Moments later, the entire mansion was under control.
Finally, in the main hall, he faced Zhang Feng and his clansmen, who were bound like rice dumplings.
Wei Changxuan scanned the entire room with a scrutinizing gaze.
Everyone was filled with despair, but more often it manifested as resentment and hatred.
Zhang Feng, in particular, refused to admit defeat even when he was in dire straits.
"This world is a dog-eat-dog world. If you dared to oppose me, you should have known this day would come..."
Wei Changxuan finished speaking calmly.
He then turned and left, leaving only a cold instruction for his subordinates.
"Take care of it."
"Yes!"
The surrounding night watchmen also unconsciously became more respectful and reverent.
Wei Changxuan's orders will be carried out without fail!
at this time.
As Wei Changxuan was about to leave, the sound of horses' hooves rang out again in the distance—
It seems another team is heading this way...
"Report! Lord Wei, an army has arrived and surrounded the entire mansion!"
A night watchman hurriedly returned to report, breaking the existing silence.
Wei Changxuan looked outside and saw warhorses neighing, soldiers clashing in armor, and the sound of swords being drawn.
However, there was no fear on his face.
"Whoever blocks our path, kill them without mercy!"
Chapter 56 Everyone was shocked; the Blood Shadow Blade instantly killed a half-step third-grade cultivator!
As the heavy vermilion gates of the Zhang residence slowly opened.
Wei Changxuan stepped out with steady steps, his posture as straight as a pine tree facing the wind.
Every step he took seemed to carry an unshakeable aura; his figure was tall and slender.
His black outfit accentuated his tall and straight figure, and his handsome face exuded a masculine charm that naturally drew people in.
He slightly raised his head, his deep eyes filled with a chilling aura.
His cold gaze, sharp as a blade, swept over the heavily guarded soldiers, weapons at their sides.
This brief glance made everyone who met his gaze feel as if something had scraped their soul.
It made them tremble involuntarily, and even their breathing became heavy and rapid.
This sense of oppression felt like a tangible, sharp blade slashing down from the void.
The air in the room froze instantly, making it impossible for anyone to even think of resisting.
"Humph!"
In the army, the leading general let out a cold snort filled with powerful inner strength.
This also dispersed the aura emanating from Wei Changxuan.
This gave ordinary soldiers some power to resist.
Otherwise, Wei Changxuan's aura alone would be enough to suppress them and prevent them from making a move.
At this moment, Wei Changxuan's steps did not falter in the slightest, remaining as steady as Mount Tai.
He slowly moved towards the door.
Sunlight fell upon his tall, upright figure, gilding him with a soft golden glow.
This makes the person look both solemn and extremely aloof.
He was surrounded by an icy aura, and his powerful pressure sent chills down people's spines.
His existence is like a peerless blade, honed over time and sheathed in its sheath.
Given the right opportunity, it will burst forth from its sheath, unleashing an incomparably sharp light and a heaven-shaking edge.
"Changxuan is from the vanguard battalion of the capital!"
Following closely behind, Jinluo Yangyan couldn't help but whisper a reminder, his tone revealing undisguised anxiety and concern.
After all, what happened today has far exceeded his capabilities.
They could only provide Wei Changxuan with information about the person in front of them.
"The leader is none other than Zhou Lingchuan, who is known as a top-tier martial artist at the half-step third rank!"
Moreover, this time, besides him, three other fourth-rank martial artists arrived together.
Following closely behind, Nangong Qianrou also frowned deeply and solemnly revealed the identities of these people.
Although he tried his best to keep his voice calm, the slight tremor at the end revealed his inner tension.
The situation is clearly more critical than imagined; however, we are under immense pressure.
