Chapter 218: Storm the City!

~8 min read 1,409 words

Xiao Qing held his battle blade in hand, his gaze contemptuously sweeping all directions.

His Martial Sect strength, in Han Shan Cheng, may not be considered among the very top.

But his years of life-and-death experience let Xiao Qing fear no other Martial Sect!

And these few days of contact have also let him confirm that Gu Han is definitely not someone who actively seeks trouble.

This matter is surely the fault of the He Family!

The members of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group are also all hot-blooded youths.

They have just recently experienced the hardships and dangers of the Thousand Year Cold Valley together with Gu Han.

At this moment, seeing Gu Han in danger, each of them is filled with righteous indignation.

"Iron Blood Mercenary Group swears to advance and retreat together with little brother Gu!"

Just now hiding, preparing to watch the show, the passersby seeing this scene couldn't help but be moved.

They've seen many scenes where, when disaster strikes, everyone flees on their own.

But forces like the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, facing such strong oppression from the He Family, still firmly stand beside Gu Han.

They can be counted on one hand!

"Fine, since you want to die, then go die with him!"

The City Guard Captain's eyes flashed with a cold glint, and he immediately gave a sinister laugh,

"Fire arrows!"

The archers who had long since nocked their arrows and drawn their bows to full let loose a volley of arrows.

Even the city guards on the city tower, at this moment, actually drew their bowstrings!

In an instant, the arrows came down like a torrential rain.

According to the order left by the He Family elders before their departure, when facing members of the Gu Family, they must be captured alive.

But Jiang Yue later sent a message over.

When encountering other members of the Gu Family, they can be taken alive.

But if they encounter Gu Han, they must not give him a chance to announce his name, and must slay him on the spot!

The fundamental reason for this incident is that He Qing wants to hitch a ride on Gu Han's great ship without expending any effort.

Given Gu Han's talent, as long as he is given time, he might even surpass the head of the He Family!

Therefore, anyone can live, but Gu Han must die!

Hearing the whistling arrow rain tearing through the air, Xiao Qing's expression remained unchanged as he waved his big hand,

"Form the formation!"

The tacit understanding of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group is forged from repeated life-and-death trials on the border.

The foremost members of the Iron Blood Mercenary Group, holding heavy shields, block the arrow rain.

The rest, hiding behind the shield-bearers, instantly took out their crossbows and began exchanging fire with the city guards!

Gu Han pushed forward with a single palm, and a surge of transparent qi formed an arc-shaped shield.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

The arrows shot by the city guards slammed into Gu Han's shield, all breaking and scattering to the ground!

Seeing this, even the city guard soldiers had their pupils contract sharply.

Their eyes were filled with disbelief.

To block dozens or even hundreds of arrows, one absolutely needs the strength of a Martial Sect cultivator.

The City Guard Captain lowered his voice with a solemn gaze,

"Keep shooting! I don't believe he has endless internal energy!"

They rely on the city gate's defense; it's not impossible to wear down the opponent!

"Courting death!"

Gu Han let out a low shout, and with his blood and qi bursting forth, he flung the second wave of incoming arrows right back!

The city guards still nocking their arrows, seeing this, instantly changed expression and hurriedly dodged.

And Gu Han turned into a gust of wind sweeping past, sending all the city guards who had surrounded him flying away!

Dozens of city guards fell one after another, spitting blood, their life or death unknown!

Gu Han waved his big hand, beginning to draw in attributes from afar!

This is an ability he upgraded after advancing to Great Martial Master.

It can draw in the attributes of corpses within a certain range from midair.

The drawn attributes turn into nutrients that surge into Gu Han's body.

Gu Han's killing-intent-filled gaze swept over the few city guards still breathing but collapsed on the ground.

Boom!

Blazing Fist!

The distant Blazing Fist smashed their chests inward, sending them flying back to crash heavily onto the ground.

But in an instant, they breathed their last.

Hiss!

The passersby hiding in the dark to watch the show, seeing this, all gasped in shock.

In the blink of an eye, he killed dozens of city guards?

This is likely not just an enemy of the He Family, but also a slap to the face of the Han Shan Cheng City Lord's mansion!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At that moment, the commander of the guards on the City Tower turned pale and immediately ordered his subordinates to close the gate.

Gu Han let out a cold snort and tapped the ground with his toes.

His body shot out like a cannonball with a boom.

The spot he had just stepped on instantly became covered with spider‑web‑like cracks!

Gu Han's fighting spirit surged wildly like that of a demonic beast.

He unleashed an Iron Mountain Lean, just as he had done before in Zhong Cheng, repeating his old trick.

He smashed a huge human‑shaped hole into the city gate, which even a Martial Sect would struggle to move.

But back when he was in Zhong Cheng, he and Bai Feng were fleeing.

But now, in Han Shan Cheng, his aim is to charge into the city!

The guards stationed behind the city gate were all sent flying by Gu Han, who charged in like a raging bull.

Everyone fell in disarray, wailing everywhere.

Gu Han released Little Wolf, ordering it to slaughter all the ill‑intentioned city patrol guards and city guards.

He himself made a few quick dodges and flew up toward the City Tower.

The patrol guards who had been patrolling in the distance rushed over upon hearing the news; seeing Gu Han daring to storm the city and fly up to the City Tower, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They glanced at the tiger‑gazing Little Wolf, and a faint cold smile flickered in their hearts.

They looked down on Little Wolf, not because its appearance was rather cute.

Rather, it is generally because of the limitations of cultivation resources.

A Martial Practitioner's battle beast is usually one major realm lower than the practitioner himself.

That is to say, a Martial Sect's battle beast is typically a Four‑Star demonic beast, equivalent to a human Great Martial Master.

The captain of the city patrol guard possesses the strength of a Martial Master.

Moreover, other city patrol guard squads are rushing here; even if this demonic beast is strong, it is no match for them!

The city patrol guard squad leader immediately gave a signal, and the few guards at the front promptly donned heavy armor, grasped heavy shields, and took the front line.

The rear city patrol guards readied their bows and arrows, preparing to shoot Little Wolf from a distance.

Little Wolf let out a disdainful growl and shook its head.

Two Water Moon Wolf Kings identical to Little Wolf appeared on its left and right sides.

Immediately, the three Little Wolves burst forth with extreme speed, beginning to dodge the city patrol guards' volley!

The three Little Wolves were like spirits strolling through the rain.

But this rain was not water—it was a rain of arrows.

They were not spirits bringing good fortune, but Water Moon Wolf Kings bringing slaughter!

The true Little Wolf in the center flickered, dodging the dense arrow rain, and slammed a claw onto the shield held aloft by the front‑most city patrol guard.

That city patrol guard's heart tightened; he mobilized his qi and blood, gritting his teeth to withstand the claw.

Thud!

Crack!

But in his terrified gaze, the three claws of Little Wolf had actually pierced into his shield!

Even, they stabbed into his eyes!

"Ah!"

The shield‑bearing city patrol guard let out a miserable howl.

The heavy shield in his hand instantly showed three cracks!

The three cracks spread from top to bottom.

A shield was actually torn apart into four pieces!
