Chapter 545: Command the Heavenly Punishment: Between Heaven and Earth, all who are guilty shall be executed!

"No wonder! No wonder this lay practitioner is so confident!"

"No wonder this lay practitioner would say: as long as he is here for one day, I will never be able to become the number one in the world?!"

"That's it! If it is True Person Li... then there is nothing strange about it."

"..."

Atop the white crane, Hong Xixiang gave a wry smile and shook his head; his heart and mind were filled with helplessness.

Although he was at Liyang's Wudang and had never descended the mountain, he had long heard of the great name of True Person Li of the Quanzhen Sect.

He had not seen the person, but had heard his reputation; today, upon seeing him, he realized that hearing of a name is not as good as meeting the person, and meeting the person is even better than hearing the name!

This was Hong Xixiang's current feeling.

Li Changsheng departed, and the terrifying aura that suppressed the entire Wudang disappeared.

In the Taizhen Palace on Yuzhu Peak, the moment he sensed that terrifying aura vanish, the Liyang Wudang Sect Master Wang Chonglou did not hesitate in the slightest; his figure moved, and he headed straight for Little Lianhuafeng.

"Little Junior Brother?! Little Junior Brother?!"

"Are you... eh?! Where is Little Junior Brother?!"

Before Wang Chonglou's figure had even arrived, his voice had already carried over.

He was just about to ask something, to ask if Hong Xixiang had achieved the status of number one in the world, but suddenly he discovered that Hong Xixiang was actually not on Little Lianhuafeng?!

Where is my Little Junior Brother?!

Where is my Little Junior Brother who is so big?!

Wang Chonglou had a blank look on his face; his entire being was numb.

"Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Is it Little Junior Brother..."

"Eh?! Senior Brother! Where is Little Junior Brother?!"

"..."

Before Wang Chonglou could react, several more voices came; it was Wang Xiaoping, Yu Xingrui, and other martial arts experts who had also impatiently arrived at Little Lianhuafeng.

After all, it was common knowledge that Hong Xixiang lived on Little Lianhuafeng.

And that unstoppable aura from just a moment ago, which had suppressed all eighty-one peaks of Wudang, had come precisely from Little Lianhuafeng.

In the land of Beiliang, among the villages.

These villages, though lacking the prosperity and clamor of cities, had rice paddies that exuded the fragrance of rice flowers, refreshing the heart and spleen.

The old farmers and commoners, looking at the golden rice paddies, could not help but reveal smiles one after another.

The prospects this year were good, and it was considered a bumper harvest; apart from the rent and taxes that needed to be handed over, there was still quite a bit left, enough to have a good year.

The farmers and commoners, harboring the most real and simple hopes, wiped the sweat from their heads, swung their hoes again, and earnestly began to farm.

"Grandpa! It's noon, let's take a break, it's time to eat."

"Husband! Let's eat!"

"..."

As it approached noon, one woman after another appeared in the fields, either calling for their fathers and mothers, or calling for their husbands, in a scene of joy and harmony.

Clip-clop, clip-clop!

Not long after, a burst of hoofbeats rang out, and the farmers and commoners in the fields changed color one after another, their eyes filled with vigilance.

At the same time, some of the women who were still quite good-looking either fished out some soot from the bottom of a pot or scooped up some dirty mud from the fields and smeared it on their faces.

Their originally quite delicate faces suddenly became pitch black.

When some of the women who were still quite good-looking finished doing all this, a team of Beiliang cavalrymen whistled over, wearing fine clothes, with precious swords hanging at their waists, looking sloppy and full of arrogance.

"Smeared with soot, smeared with dirty mud?! Heh! Is that all the tricks you have?!"

"You! You! You! She! She! She... are all Beimang spies, all of you should be taken back by me for a good interrogation!"

A man who looked quite important waved his large sleeves and said indifferently.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

A team of cavalrymen immediately began to take action, grabbing these women; any husbands or fathers who wanted to resist were all kicked to the side.

Of course, there were also some Beiliang cavalrymen who had a conscience and could not bear to see this, wanting to stop it, but as if they had thought of something, they instantly chose to give up, whipped their horses and left, preferring not to see it.

In fact, it was not that these Beiliang cavalrymen with a conscience did not want to inform their superiors; similar things had happened before, but it was common knowledge that the Beiliang Protector Chu Lushan was obsessed with lust and was cruel and tyrannical, and he basically turned a blind eye to these things, sometimes even punishing the cavalrymen who reported them.

Therefore, as time went on, no one dared to report them anymore.

After all, reporting was not only useless but would also implicate oneself, so who else would report it?!

Moreover, these cavalrymen had secret agents from the Fushui Chamber who had long since inquired about everything; they certainly would not dare to touch families with money and power, but for some small farmers and commoners with no power or influence, there were naturally no scruples.

"I am not a spy! We are not any Beimang spies!"

"My family lives nearby! My family lives nearby..."

"..."

The women struggled, cried out, and screamed.

"You all saw it too! If you weren't spies, how would you know about Beimang spies?!"

"So! These people must be spies! Take them all back!"

The leader shouted loudly.

The farmers who heard this were all speechless and even more desperate: this is too shameless, it was clearly you who said they were all Beimang spies!

"Shameless!"

Li Changsheng could not bear to watch either, especially after hearing that sentence, he was directly stunned: could there actually be such a shameless person in this world?!

After leaving Wudang, Li Changsheng did not directly leave the Beiliang territory, but instead, with great interest, walked while looking at the scenery of Beiliang.

After all, when he went to Beiliang with Huang Rong at that time, he went straight into the Prince's Mansion; afterward, he was always in the city.

As for outside the city, Li Changsheng had not yet had a good look.

Who would have thought that just a few days later, he would encounter such a disgusting and shameless thing.

"Hmm?!"

"A fine Beimang spy! Do you think that by disguising yourself as a martial artist, you can get away with it?!"

"If it were someone else, perhaps you really would have gotten away with it!"

"Unfortunately, the one you encountered is me!"

The leader, as if he had heard Li Changsheng's words, gave a cold laugh, and a murderous intent swirled in his eyes.

"Men! Seize him for me!"

"If he dares to resist, kill him!"

The word "kill" was spoken without the slightest hesitation, cold and ruthless.

"Kill me?!"
