Chapter 801

"Haha, since that's the case, let's get to work!"

An excited look appeared on Zhao Xing's face.

Then, he waved his hand, and several powerhouses stood by his side.

Their cultivation bases were all quite good, with some at the seventh level of the Saint realm.

That was enough to deal with the army.

And at this moment, Zhao Xing had just stepped out of the camp when he was greeted by a guest.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of Han, I am Huang Huang Feihu, the City Lord of Zhao Tiangang City. I heard that the Great Han intends to go to war with various cities, so I have come specifically to offer my assistance to Your Majesty!"

An excited look appeared on his face.

If it were truly as the rumors said, and he were to become the hegemon of the entire Nine Provinces,

then the benefits for him would be significant.

"Oh, I am preparing to attack Black Wind Ridge; are you confident!"

Zhao Xing's cold voice rang out.

It left Huang Huang Feihu incredibly alarmed.

However, he did not retreat.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, although Black Wind Ridge's strength is powerful,

my Zhao Tiangang City also has over ten thousand soldiers.

Added to the million-strong army personally led by Your Majesty, wiping out Black Wind Ridge will be a simple matter.

It is just that there is a gang of thieves within Black Wind Ridge whose strength is not weak.

I hope we can wipe them out completely.

Over these years, this group of bandits has run rampant across the Nine Provinces, harming countless ordinary people!"

Huang Huang Feihu said cautiously.

At this moment, he dared not be the least bit negligent.

He was afraid of angering Zhao Xing.

"Hmph, what of thieves? My army would not fear them. Rest assured, I will send experts to assist you, but there will be no share of the merit for you.

However, I promise you that I can appoint you as the General Who Guards the State; at that time, you will be responsible for subjugating the various bandit chiefs near the Great Han, and for each one, how about a reward of ten Primordial Chaos Pills!

Zhao Xing said dismissively.

Clearly, he did not hold those village masters in high regard.

And this army expedition was originally intended to wipe out those thieves.

Now is the perfect opportunity to clear them out.

This also has huge benefits for himself, and he can also buy people's hearts, so how could he refuse?

Then he said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your promotion; this subordinate is deeply grateful!"

At this moment, the other party was full of joy.

"Alright, go and prepare. Remember, this time you must take down the Great Han in one go.

Also, take this money and use it first; after the victory, I will reward you!"

After his voice fell,

Zhao Xing threw a storage bag to Huang Huang Feihu.

This made the latter even more delighted.

This was a huge sum; even the wealthy households within the city would find it hard to produce.

He did not expect Zhao Xing to give it to him.

At this moment, how could he not be surprised?

However, he dared not hesitate.

He said respectfully.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great kindness; this subordinate takes his leave!"

After his voice fell, he left.

And a smile appeared on the corner of Zhao Xing's mouth.

Then he said slowly.

"Let's go, we depart.

Go to Black Wind Ridge and kill those damned thieves!"

As soon as the order was given, a large number of soldiers gathered from all around.

The vast army rushed out like locusts.

When the Master of Black Wind Ridge heard that the Great Han was going to surround and kill him,

he had already made preparations in his heart.

This time, he was going to fight the Great Han to the death.

Moreover, according to the scouts,

this time, Liu Zheng did not lead the Great Han's experts on the expedition.

However, he did not know

that Liu Zheng's figure had already appeared silently outside his large tent.

He looked ahead with a cold gaze.

The system's voice rang out in his mind.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the mission and obtaining five soul fragments.

Obtained one divinity.

Do you wish to fuse them!"

Upon hearing this, a look of joy appeared in his eyes.

However, his face was immediately covered in gloom.

Because these soul fragments were simply not enough to allow him to break through his realm; they only barely strengthened his intelligence.

Then, he walked toward the large tent.

At this moment, Zhao Xing was already waiting on the spot.

After seeing Liu Zheng, he spoke respectfully.

"Greetings, Your Majesty the Emperor of Han!"

The voice rang out, carrying a hint of fawning.

Liu Zheng waved his hand slightly.

Then, he said.

"City Lord Zhao, no need for formalities!"

After his voice fell, Zhao Xing stood up and said respectfully.

"I wonder why Your Majesty the Emperor of Han has summoned this subordinate!"

A nervous look appeared on Zhao Xing's face.

After all, Liu Zheng did not have a good impression of him on a daily basis.

And just after his voice fell,

Liu Zheng said.

"I want to attack Black Wind Ridge, so I need City Lord Zhao's assistance!"

Upon hearing this, a look of wild joy appeared on Zhao Xing's face.

Then, he said.

"Your Majesty, just give the order!"

After his voice fell, he said respectfully.

However, just after the two of them finished discussing,

the curtain of the large tent was lifted.

It was none other than the Master of Black Wind Ridge who walked in.

At this moment, he was clad in battle armor.

A cold luster flickered in his eyes as he stared at Zhao Xing and said.

"Zhao Xing, you arrived quite quickly this time!"

His voice contained a cold and sharp tone.

"Hehe, Master of Black Wind Ridge, you were defeated by my hand back then!

This time, I will teach you another lesson.

So you don't continue to act recklessly!"

Zhao Xing said.

Brilliant golden light bloomed in his eyes.

"Hmph, then let's try!"

The Master of Black Wind Ridge said coldly, with cold light splashing in his eyes.

His body turned into a streak of black light in an instant.

He charged toward the Great Han's military formation.

At the same time, the bandits following behind him followed closely.

A ferocious beast roared.

It charged toward the front.

Its speed was incredibly fast.

However, facing these fearless mountain bandits, a look of deep disdain appeared in Zhao Xing's eyes.

He raised his palm.

He threw a punch, and the space shook.

That ferocious beast was sent flying in an instant.

Blood mist filled the air, causing the expressions of those bandits to change.

They had not expected

that a mere military formation would be so terrifying.

Then, they rushed forward to kill again.

"Get out of the way!"

However, their speed was a bit slow.

Zhao Xing thrust his long spear directly.

A leader's chest was pierced through.

Then, his body exploded in an instant.

Blood mist drifted, and the scene in the arena was incredibly horrifying.

At this moment, Liu Zheng was sitting quietly on the dragon chariot watching the battle.

He had no pity at all for these fierce bandits.

Back then, when they were wantonly slaughtering people in his imperial palace, they never thought about others' lives.

Now, surrounded by the army, if they resisted, they might have some power to defend, but if they didn't resist, there was only a dead end.

He would not leave any future trouble.

And just when Liu Zheng wanted to give the order,

a sharp blade tore through the void.

It shot toward Zhao Xing on the side.

The blade light was sharp and carried energy that could destroy the world.

Clearly, it wanted to kill him.

Not only him, but even Liu Zheng had not expected

that there were experts ambushing outside the camp.

And just at this moment, among the Great Han's iron cavalry,

Lu Bu had already ridden his horse to meet it.

A hideous smile appeared on his face.

His figure leaped up.

He actually condensed a giant hammer in the air.

He smashed it down directly.

In an instant, bursts of blood gushed out.

The existence who had plotted against Zhao Xing

was actually smashed to death by Lu Bu.

Afterward, his figure fell into the camp like a cannonball.

A large head was thrown high into the air.

At this moment, the entire camp fell silent.

Especially Zhao Xing, who was scared silly.

Although he was a subject of the Great Han,

he had still heard of Liu Zheng's ferocity.

The other party was a truly bloodthirsty person.

It was one thing for him to show off in front of him, but now he actually dared to assassinate him.

This was simply courting death.

However, just at this moment,

Liu Zheng's brows furrowed, and he shouted.

"Zhao Xing, is this the object of your loyalty? They actually wanted to assassinate me.

I think you had better surrender; otherwise, I'm afraid you won't escape a calamity today!"

Upon hearing this, sweat flowed down Zhao Xing's forehead.

Liu Zheng's words made him feel uneasy, but he did not know how to respond.

And just at this moment, the Master of Black Wind Ridge roared angrily.

"Zhao Xing, I treated you well, but now you want to betray me; I'll fight you to the death!"

After the voice fell, a trusted aide by his side flew directly toward Liu Zheng.

His cultivation had also reached the ninth level of the Saint realm.

However, just as he approached,

an arrow shot out.

This archery was too sharp.

That trusted aide didn't even dodge.

His body was pierced through in an instant.

A look of terror appeared in his eyes.

And the Master of Black Wind Ridge was even more furious.

He pointed at Zhao Xing and shouted.

"Zhao Xing, I didn't expect your guts to be so big.

Today I will definitely behead you here!"

While speaking, he held his weapon and fell downward.

A look of panic appeared in Zhao Xing's eyes.

He feared the Master of Black Wind Ridge from the bottom of his heart.

But at this moment, he couldn't care about too much.

He could only grit his teeth and face the enemy.

And just at the same time, Liu Zheng stood up slowly.
