C220 The Beginning of Chaos (Part I)

The Fengyang City Guards controlled the manor.

The City Guard Army's Commander was extremely unlucky tonight. Not to mention that the mess at the north of the city had not been resolved, just the chaos in the city alone was enough to infuriate him and give him a headache.

Commander Ni had been tormented for the entire night. He had been trying to get some sleep, but before he could warm his bed the next morning, he was woken up by the reporting soldiers. Of course, his deputy commander was also tormented.

When he heard the Vice General say that there was something off about this matter, he noticed that the Vice General's expression didn't seem like he was trying to frighten Duan Ling Tian with his words, and it seemed as if some doubt arose regarding the identity or actions of those experts in the Martial Techniques Realm. Commander Ni looked at his assistant general with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's wrong with that? I think it's just those random people in the day. They didn't cause enough trouble, and now they're still tormenting us at night!"

"Sir, from what I see, this matter is not simple!" The deputy general spoke with a solemn expression.

"What do you mean?" Seeing the expression on the assistant general's face, Commander Ni was perplexed. Thus, he asked in confusion.

In Commander Ni's opinion, this was not a big deal. In such a tense period, some warriors who didn't know their status, acted strangely and rashly, rashly attacked the City Guards on the street. This was a serious crime; it wouldn't be too much even if he mobilized his army and killed them all.

"Lord, please think about it. The location of the attack on the City Guards was near Fortune Street!" The deputy general continued to explain.

"So what?" Commander Ni was still puzzled and the expression on his face became impatient. He felt that his assistant general was making a big fuss out of nothing.

"If the people from Sword League want to return to their own residence, they have to pass through Fortune Street!" The assistant general could tell that the intelligence of his assistant boss was limited, so he did not beat around the bush and spoke straightforwardly.

"What?" "You mean those people are ??" Commander Ni said with a pale face.

"Yes, this subordinate is certain that those people are from the Sword League!" The deputy general said with a firm tone.

"But according to the words of the person who came to report it, the people who attacked the city guards did not look like the clothes that the Sword League should have? It seems like they are all naked! " Commander Ni voiced out his doubts. He did not wish for anything bad to happen to himself. After two short days of worrying about something, his mind was already exhausted. He even had the urge to resign and report to the elders.

"This is what's so strange about this matter!" It seems like they met with an ambush on their way back, which is why they have turned into their current appearances. Furthermore, due to their fury, they hastily chased after the patrolling city guards, and after meeting each other, they had no idea what happened between the two sides, leading to this conflict without any explanation. " Although he didn't guess everything correctly, he was still very close to the truth.

"According to what you said, there's someone behind all this?" Commander Ni nodded. In short, he wasn't the type to be considered completely stupid.

"It's very likely!" The deputy general replied while shaking his head.

"F * ck, who is it!?" "It's actually me." Commander Ni was infuriated as he cursed angrily.

"Lord, please calm down. The most important thing right now is to settle the matter before us!" He knew that this matter was extremely troublesome and was also the most urgent matter at hand. After all, they were still fighting with each other, and every second that was delayed meant that there would be people who would fall because of it.

Then send someone to explain it to Sword League? Commander Ni suggested.

"That's not right!" The deputy general shook his head and declined to comment.

"Why?" Commander Ni asked foolishly.

"The person who said that did not have any authority, I am afraid he will be unable to calm the anger of the people from Sword League!" The deputy general helplessly explained to his superior.

"Then I'll go personally?" Commander Ni suggested once more.

"Even more inappropriate!" The deputy general once again shook his head, denying this suggestion.

"Why is that inappropriate?" Commander Ni was puzzled. Previously, he had suggested sending a random person over, and he thought that the identity of the person he sent wasn't enough and wouldn't be of any help. In that case, did this fellow think that he wasn't qualified? Thus, when he asked, he could not help but furrow his brows.

"Lord, if you were to personally go, it would be sufficient in terms of status, but ?" The deputy general bitterly smiled as he explained. He knew that although this commander was tall, he didn't have a good heart. If he didn't explain himself clearly, then his superior might hold a grudge.

"But what?" Upon hearing that the cause of the problem wasn't due to his status, Commander Ni felt much better.

"But if those elders of the Sword League give Master a taunt, then what if he continues to fight with them? Or are you just trying to swallow your anger? " The deputy general continued to explain.

"This ?" The Commander didn't know what to do. If it was like what this Lieutenant General had said, he would either bring his men and continue to fight with them. This way, not to mention how many people would be killed on the spot, it would be a huge problem even if he solved the situation afterwards. But if he swallowed his anger, then he wouldn't have to continue with this position. Not to mention whether the officers underground would be convinced of his strength, even the elders in the imperial court and His Majesty the emperor would feel ashamed of him. At that time, it wouldn't be a question of whether he would lose face or not, even if he were to be smashed to smithereens or grind his bones to dust, it would still be difficult to quell the rage of the imperial court.

Thinking of this, Commander Ni was drenched in cold sweat. His clothes made it seem as if he had no idea what to do next. He then asked the Lieutenant General, "Do you have any better suggestions?"

"Master, why don't you go and ask the Patriarchs of the large families of Fengyang City to come forward. Firstly, you can strengthen Master, and secondly, you can be considered a witness. At that time, Master will even use the word 'soft', I'm afraid that the people of Sword League will have no choice but to admit defeat!" the deputy general suggested.

"But I'm afraid it will take a long time to get here. What if the situation gets worse?" The commander asked worriedly.

"Lord, you can first dispatch some men to stop the two sides from fighting and also send out some heavy soldiers to monitor their every move. Afterwards, we will pay a visit to the patriarchs of the several great clans." The deputy general continued to add the previous suggestion.

"I'm afraid it's not that simple, do you think those patriarchs are idiots? They might not even be able to avoid this muddy water, how can they help me go out and provoke the people from the Sword League?" Commander Ni had also become smarter. He shook his head in disapproval.

When it was about his own little life, any person would be extremely cautious. At this time, even if there was something wrong with their brains, they would probably become elites in the face of life.

"Master, they are from the Sword League, we were just guessing, why would they mention it? Seeing that the patriarch of a large clan has only claimed that he is a thief, but his martial arts are extremely powerful, so I have to ask for their help. " The Lieutenant General smiled mischievously as he consoled the commander.

"What if they find out the truth in the end and offend these clans as well?" Commander Ni said timidly.

"Lord, we really do not know! What do you mean by deceiving me? " The Lieutenant General continued to speak in a seductive tone.

They were just some small fry people who could be used as cannon fodder in politics. It would be better to let this problem go back to those large buddhas and let them continue to struggle on their own. As long as they did their job, it would not be within their responsibility to do anything else.

"Alright, alright, I'll do it!" The Lord Commander finally nodded in agreement.

However, just as the commander was about to bring everyone to pay a visit to the patriarch one by one, a flash of light passed by, followed by a giant mushroom cloud soaring into the sky from the north of the city. Thunder and lightning rumbled in the sky, and there was even a loud rumbling sound and shaking of the earthquake.

"Men, men, what happened?" The commander roared at his subordinates in terror.

Seeing this scene, he didn't even need to 'feel'. Looking at this scene and its posture, it was likely that nothing good would happen.

"Sir, this subordinate does not know that, from the looks of it, something has happened in the north side of the city!" A personal guard ran over and said.

"Nonsense, I see. Immediately send someone to investigate. I need to know what happened!" When the leader heard the words of his janissaries, he was almost angered to the point of bursting into laughter. It was not like he had no eyes, could it be that he couldn't see it?

Commander Ni and the people beside him all fell to the ground, each of them looking towards the north with a frightened expression. This place was quite a distance away from the north of the city, but even so, they were still affected. From this, it could be inferred that the center of the area would erupt with a great amount of energy.

? ?.

Grand Elder of the Sword Alliance led the group of people and stopped after a short distance, because the abnormal phenomenon at the north of the city also attracted their attention. They were martial artists to begin with, so they were much more sensitive to the occurrence and feeling of this phenomenon than the ordinary people.

In the instant that the explosion occurred, they were keenly aware of the situation where the energy in the air was rapidly being drawn out. This was against common sense, and just as they stopped to take a look, they saw the shocking scene at the north side of the city.

"Big brother, it's the north side of the city!" The Third Elder said.

"I know, I can see!" The Great Elder was silent.

"The Tenth Bro is still over there. Looking at the location of the explosion, I'm afraid the Tenth Bro isn't too far away, could the Tenth Bro be ??" The third elder asked worriedly.

This time, Sword League only had four main tasks to handle. With Seventh Brother and his subordinates, in front of so many soldiers, it was very likely that he would only be able to stall for time. If the Tenth Brother's life was also lost in Fengyang City, even if he and the Great Clan Elder returned to Sword League, they would probably be questioned by the other disciples from the same sect.

"Such a big battle formation, I'm afraid it won't be less than two rank 8 people over there. As soon as the Tenth Brother saw someone who had just entered rank 5 and was higher than him, he would run away immediately!" "Don't worry about him!" The Head Elder's thoughts were far from here. All he could think about right now was how to return to the base and confirm the safety of the treasure. That was the most important thing.

"Brother, who do you think might be fighting there? Could a level eight individual release such power? This is too unbelievable. " The third elder asked. He had not reached the level of the eighth rank before, nor could he deduce such a great power. Was such an exaggerated scene something that a level eight expert could release?

"I don't know. At the very least, I can't do it. Maybe their standards have already far surpassed mine!" The Great Clan Elder looked at the spectacular sight on the north side of the city, and asked doubtfully.

"Such a world-destroying power, could it really be something a human can do?" The Third Elder didn't let go of this question and asked, but this time, he seemed to be talking to himself.

"Alright, let's not waste time here. Let's hurry up and leave this place. Seventh Bro and the others won't be able to delay this much longer!"

"Yes sir!"

However, just as they were about to continue on their journey, the ground began to shake violently, as if there was an earthquake. Other than the Great Clan Elder and the Third Clan Elder, the rest of the people from the Sword League had all fallen to the ground due to the violent shaking.

"The power actually reached this place ??" The Third Elder looked back and sighed in disbelief.
