Chapter 755: “Charge Out!”
Feng Ling dead?
When he heard the news from elsewhere, a vision of pure whiteness flashed through Happy’s mind—the delicate figure who followed the Silver Fox, carrying an oversized sword scabbard.
Jiuyin Juemai…
He remembered Bai Xiaosheng mentioning that although Feng Ling’s cultivation progress far exceeded that of ordinary people, her innate limitations prevented her from mastering many martial arts, making it difficult for her to navigate the martial world. Most dangerously, even a slight mistake could lead to death, wasting all her previous efforts.
His identity as the successor to the Six-Fingered Piano Demon still existed, but unfortunately, after the Lament of the Broken Soul, everything had to start over…
“Lingxiao Palace.”
“Yipin Hall.”
Happy clamped his legs tightly around the horse’s belly, repeatedly repeating those two names he had chanted countless times. The cold glare in his eyes grew sharper.
Over two thousand of his brothers had died in Yangzhou City…
Besides Feng Ling, many elite fighters whose names Happy knew had also perished.
By now, Yangzhou City must be on the verge of collapse.
The Silver Fox, Xiao Bei, and the others were in extreme danger!
It was all because of his own minor oversight.
He hadn’t expected Tang Feng to hand over a “Thunderbolt Lightning Bomb” to Yipin Hall and use it at the Mu Family’s branch in Yangzhou City!
Snap! Snap!!
Amidst the crisp sound of the whip and howling wind, the biting cold rushed along with the rapid hoofbeats, speeding toward the end of the road…
Whoosh…
Another homing pigeon appeared in Happy’s sight as it sliced through the sky. He swiftly caught it in his palm. Seeing the name written on it, he frowned and couldn’t help showing a look of shame.
A letter from Bai Xiaosheng!
There was a rough line of text written on it:
“I’ve sent someone to rescue Feng Ling. Avenge her!” It was very straightforward and concise, yet it also revealed the complexity and conflict in a senior’s heart.
Without hesitation, Happy quickly drafted a reply letter. After a moment’s pause, he decided to send it!
…
The capital city!
Bai Xiaosheng’s residence.
A middle-aged man dressed in plain white, resembling a scholar, stroked the homing pigeon curled in his arms. His gaze swept over the letter, his brows furrowing repeatedly as he murmured, “Just destroy Lingxiao Palace? What’s the reason…”
Although he was able to predict certain things in the game, Bai Xiaosheng still couldn’t fully understand people’s thoughts. For example, despite the heavy losses at the Mu Family’s branch in Yangzhou—nearly three thousand elite fighters killed—Happy still managed to restrain himself, deciding to strike hard at Lingxiao Palace while avoiding Yipin Hall.
Pondering in place for a long while, a second message was sent by pigeon.
It was still joyful…
The letter added that they would surely destroy the foreign syndicates involved in this attack on the Mu Family’s branch, kill the mastermind behind the attack on Wind Chime, and spare none of them.
“Foreign forces…” murmuring to himself, Bai Xiaosheng read the second message several times before finally sensing something resolute between the lines.
Longmen…
Lingxiao Palace…
“So that’s how it is!” Bai Xiaosheng sighed in relief, sent a reply, and released the pigeon.
…
“Thank you for understanding.”
After receiving Bai Xiaosheng’s reply, Kai Xin finally exhaled deeply, completely at ease!
This time, Yipin Hall and Lingxiao Palace had taken the initiative to declare war, sparking conflicts in the Central Plains martial world and even causing heavy losses to the Mu Family. Yet Kai Xin’s first reaction was not revenge or completely destroying Yipin Hall and Lingxiao Palace.
Although Xiyi Gate and many other gangs offered support, combined with the Mu Family’s strength, it would be entirely possible to wipe out Yipin Hall and Lingxiao Palace…
But the battle couldn’t end in a short time!
Moreover, both the Mu Family and Xiyi Gate would be trapped in the mire of war, potentially dragging the entire Central Plains martial world into chaos.
Though Kai Xin wanted revenge and to teach Lingxiao Palace, Yipin Hall, Longmen, and other organizations the cruelest lesson, the lessons from his past life kept warning him…
He couldn’t do this!!
Countless foreign forces were watching the Central Plains, paying attention to the Mu Family and his reactions after arriving in Yangzhou. Once the four top gangs in the Central Plains martial world engaged in full-scale combat and the war spread across the land, it would provide the perfect opportunity for foreign forces to intervene…
By then, the Central Plains martial world would be completely in chaos!
To be honest, Kai Xin absolutely didn’t want this to happen. Even if he had to endure, he didn’t want to use the most direct method to ignite the spark of war in the Central Plains martial world…
However, since Lingxiao Palace had united with foreign syndicates to stir up trouble this time, Kai Xin wouldn’t show mercy again. He believed…
After the battle in Yangzhou City, Yipin Hall would understand something, and people like Meng Yun and Huang Sha wouldn’t dare leave the capital easily!
…
Yangzhou!
The Mu Family’s branch.
On the battlefield, which had been silent for a long time, the people of Lingxiao Palace sat around, waiting for the final attack while using their energy to heal or restore their depleted internal strength.
Time passed, minute by minute…
Meanwhile, some movements were taking place within the Mu Family.
It seemed to be in preparation for the final battle—the outer walls had collapsed, and there was a noticeable surge in troops in the two directions that had suffered the most damage. The people from Lingxiao Palace watched silently without paying much attention. Those two areas where the outer walls had collapsed would surely bear the greatest pressure during the next attack, so it was only natural for the Mu family to dispatch troops from the other two directions.
“…”
“Hurry up and restore your internal energy.”
“Everyone in the Mu family is extremely resourceful and hard to deal with.”
“Let’s form groups later…”
“Okay.”
“I wonder if there’s still time to repair our equipment. My weapon has several flaws…”
“…The next wave won’t take much time.”
Amidst the silent waiting, soft conversations occasionally arose among the crowd. Everyone was preparing for the upcoming attack. Yet, the people from Lingxiao Palace didn’t notice… As the Mu family continued to mobilize troops, their formation also underwent subtle changes. Those who had previously served as archers were now switching to different weapons behind them—putting away their bows and hanging small pouches of hidden weapons around their waists, or relying mainly on tiny flying knives.
“Hm?”
“The people from the Mu family are really bold—daring to repair the outer walls at this moment…” Some in the crowd sneered as they watched the troops approaching the outer walls.
Soon, many people’s expressions changed as they realized something was wrong. It wasn’t just a few people approaching the outer walls—it was a coordinated advance.
“That’s not right!”
“…” By the time Qin Qing realized this, the Mu family’s troops had already silently advanced to the position of the outer walls… By the time the people from Lingxiao Palace outside realized the situation was critical and rushed to grab their weapons!
“Kill!!!”
The Mu family’s experts, like tigers breaking free from their cages, surged forth from both sides of the altar like a tidal wave, attacking the enemies outside… The people from Lingxiao Palace paled in terror and hurriedly stood up! But…
The distance of dozens of meters shrank to nothing in an instant. The ones at the front were terrified and kept retreating…
Boom!!!
Led by Yinhu, Xiao Bei, Feng Zhi, and others, the Fengshi formation charged into Lingxiao Palace’s camp with unstoppable force, each one fierce and deadly, slashing with their weapons!
