Chapter 249(1/2)
Qi Jiguang's troops arrived in front of the city, saw Su Yuan and the others, and immediately came to pay their respects.
"I've met the prince."
"Get up quickly."
Su Yuan wanted to help Qi Jiguang up. As soon as the idea came to his mind, Qi Jiguang suddenly felt an invisible and gentle force supporting his body, allowing him to stand up.
Qi Jiguang looked at Su Yuan in surprise, while Jia Wu and Tang Ziyu behind him also looked shocked.
For those who practice martial arts, they can see at a glance that the ability to use force to affect others from a distance is something that can only be achieved by at least three levels of congenital masters.
When did Su Yuan become a master?
Tang Ziyu looked at Su Yuan strangely. She was obviously very impressed. When she first met Su Yuan, she concluded that the latter did not know martial arts.
Could it be that in less than a month, he turned into a martial arts master?
Su Yuan did not explain, and others did not dare to ask.
He only greeted a few people and asked them to enter the city first. He also specifically told Tang Ziyu that the Tang Sect had previously sent disciples to participate in the defense of the city.
"Tangmen disciple?!"
As expected, Tang Ziyu was very concerned about this matter and asked questions quickly.
"That bastard Tang Lin must have sent them here... What did you do to them? Did you kill them?"
Tang Ziyu asked pessimistically. She knew what kind of person Su Yuan was, and she would not be open to the enemies of the Tang Sect just because of her, Tang Ziyu.
"Some were killed, some were not killed. Do you know a man named 'Tang Ming'? I imprisoned several disciples led by him who gave up the fight."
"Tang Ming!"
Of course Tang Ziyu knew him, he was a leader among the younger generation of the Tang clan.
Her grandfather was very optimistic about him and already wanted to train him to be the future castle master.
Tang Ziyu thought he had died in Tang Lin's hands, but she didn't expect he was still alive.
"It seems we have met. Let's talk about it later when we meet again."
Su Yuan asked Qi Jiguang to lead people into the city, while he and Zhao Yun stayed outside the city to complete the previous plan.
The two of them left the town and came to a barren mountain. Su Yuan followed Zhao Yun's instructions and released the true essence.
A golden light penetrated the sky and hit the mountains.
There was a loud bang, and a large hole appeared in the middle of the mountain range, which was as thick as seven or eight buckets combined. Through it, you could clearly see the blue sky behind.
Su Yuan was slightly frightened as he looked at the damage he had easily caused.
Zhao Yun asked: "My lord, this is as powerful as a grandmaster's full blow. How much real energy did this consume for you?"
"Did the Grandmaster strike with all his strength? It's quite scary." After Su Yuan finished speaking, he added, "How much real energy was consumed... I don't know. I can't feel how much real energy I have."
What Su Yuan said was true. When Zhao Yun heard this, he said seriously: "My lord, this may mean that you have surpassed the great master."
Beyond the Grand Master, is he a land god?
is it possible?
Su Yuan thought of the only land god he knew and had ever seen, Grand Master Zhen Miao.
The latter's ability to sense, the terror of killing the Grand Master with one blow, and the extreme speed of shrinking into an inch and traveling thousands of miles in a day... these are the real land gods!
As for myself...
Su Yuan has only found out that his perceptual ability is very strong so far, and his Zhen Yuan can't seem to be used cleanly, but his speed is far from being as fast as Zhen Miao.
Perhaps, he should not be a land god, but a half-step land god between the great master and the land god?
At Zhao Yun's suggestion, Su Yuan began to try to attack with all his strength.
He held the idea of "using the strongest strength" and pondered for a while before punching the mountain peak where he had punched a big hole.
This time, overwhelming golden light erupted from his fist, as dazzling as the scorching sun!
These rays of light flashed through the air and fell on the mountain peak in an instant. The next second, the entire mountain peak disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the "artificial open space" in front of them, Su Yuan and Zhao Yun were speechless for a moment.
"It seems that from now on, my lord will no longer need my protection."
"Roughly the same!"
This is of course a good thing. Now that Su Yuan has the ability to prevent assassination, the entire Bei'an Army really has no flaws.
The two of them went back to the city and to the Prefectural Mufu.
Tang Ziyu waited for a long time, and when she saw that he finally came back, she quickly wanted to see Tang Ming to understand the current situation of the Tang Sect.
She had wanted to see someone before, but the Bei'an Army soldiers did not obey her orders.
Su Yuan was also a little curious about the internal situation of Tang Clan, so he took Tang Ziyu to the room where Tang Ming was detained.
As soon as the door opened, Tang Ming saw Tang Ziyu and said excitedly: "Miss! You are really fine!"
"I'm fine. Tang Ming, how is the Tang Clan doing now?!"
Tang Ziyu didn't care much about herself, she was more concerned about Tang Clan.
Tang Ming's face darkened and he shook his head: "Now Tang Lin has seized power and sealed off Shuzhou. Many disciples of the Tang Sect were deceived by him and thought that the death of the old fort master was only related to Jiayi."
"This bastard!" Tang Ziyu gritted her teeth in anger, looking like she wanted to rush to Shuzhou immediately and kill Tang Lin with her own hands.
Tang Ming said: "Miss, Tang Lin has been sending people to look for you. Is it... that the peacock feather is on you?"
He had previously learned from other disciples that Tang Lin had been sending people to find Tang Ziyu.
This search was naturally not for Tang Ziyu, but more likely for the things she took away.
The only thing worth going to such great lengths to find is the Tang Sect's most precious treasure, the peacock feather.
Tang Ziyu nodded slightly, acknowledging it.
Tang Ming felt relieved and breathed out: "If the peacock feather is in the hands of the eldest lady, then we will have a basis to deal with Tang Lin."
Jia Yi can withstand a shot of peacock feathers, but Tang Lin can't.
This is probably one of the reasons why Tang Lin closed Shuzhou, because he was afraid that Tang Ziyu holding a peacock feather would sneak into the state and wait for revenge.
He knew that as a disciple of the Tang Sect, ordinary investigative methods might not be effective against Tang Ziyu. Then he would simply seal off the entire Shuzhou in one fell swoop, so that whenever Tang Ziyu showed up, he would be particularly conspicuous.
Tang Ziyu said coldly: "I will definitely kill Tang Lin and that Jiayi with my own hands to avenge my grandfather and all the Tang Sect disciples!"
After speaking, she looked at Su Yuan and said: "Tang Ming used to be a talent that my grandfather valued very much, and he would rather die than succumb to Tang Lin. He can be trusted, can you release him?"
Tang Ziyu has no decision-making power in this matter, the decision-making power lies only in Su Yuan's hands.
Su Yuandao: "Let's wait until Shuzhou."
Tang Ziyu trusted Tang Ming, but Su Yuan was just average.
He didn't know Tang Ming well, and the first impression the latter gave him was that of an enemy. He had shown extra mercy by not killing Tang Ming, and there was definitely no way to let him roam freely now.
Tang Ziyu was helpless when she heard this. She looked at Tang Ming, who was not disappointed.
"The prince is very magnanimous in not killing Tang. Tang is willing to stay in this house until the day when the prince is willing to believe in Tang."
"Um."
Su Yuan was quite satisfied with Tang Ming's attitude.
After leaving the house, Su Yuan said to Tang Ziyu: "I know you are eager to go to Shuzhou for revenge, but the Bei'an Army will attack Yunzhou first. I suggest that for the sake of safety, it is best not to act alone."
Shuzhou is located in the northwest corner of Jiangnan, which is the farthest place from Haizhou. It is impossible for Su Yuan to lead his troops across the entire hinterland of Jiangnan to fight there.
In his plan, after Haizhou was stabilized, he would lead his troops straight to Yunzhou and completely occupy the seat of the Southern Zhou Dynasty.
Although the Southern Zhou court existed in name only, completely destroying the newly built palace would be equivalent to wiping out its "name" as well.
At that time, he could declare the Zhou Dynasty completely destroyed.
Once this symbol collapsed, he estimated that other Jiangnan states would not resist too much.
"I understand." Tang Ziyu said, "I will follow the Bei'an Army."
"Wise choice."
"...Then you go about your business first, I'm leaving."
After Tang Ziyu finished speaking, he quickly left.
Previously, she was preoccupied with the affairs of the Tang Sect, but now that she felt at ease temporarily, she felt very uncomfortable staying with Su Yuan.
This had nothing to do with Su Yuan, but with herself. She had spoken about the "marriage" before and hurriedly left the capital because she felt a little embarrassed to see Su Yuan again.
She knew that Su Yuan was right to reject her, but this further made it difficult for her to face Su Yuan.
Su Yuan watched Tang Ziyu walk away, and then he remembered that he hadn't asked her how she collected the "ammunition" from peacock feathers.
But then I thought about it, this thing is not important anymore. Now that he has the super boost of strength brought by the Nuwa Stone fragments, plus Xuanwu, he is really not afraid of that Jiayi.
Not to mention the whole Bei'an army fighting in groups, even if he were to fight one-on-one, he didn't think he would lose to that guy. This was because he had the confidence of having artifact fragments and divine beasts.
