Since the heavenly punishing sword had been left behind until now, it was bound to be defective.
At that time, he would need the power of a spirit master to repair it.
Moreover, after becoming a spirit master, he could also make some Nirvana artifacts.
“Haha, that’s easy!”
Ten days later.
Iron Horse dukedom Pier.
“We’ll meet again at the qionglou banquet!” Xia qingchen bade Jin linfei farewell and turned to enter the capital of the Iron Horse dukedom. He came before a magnificent courtyard.
The words ‘great general’ were hung on the horizontal board of the courtyard.
This was Zhang zhiyue’s home.
He was born in the General’s Office of Iron Horse dukedom and was the eldest son of Zhang wangya, the number one war god of Iron Horse dukedom.
Now, the entrance was covered with white banners and white lanterns.
Mourning couplets were pasted on both sides of the gate, and dozens of flower circles were placed.
The news of Zhang zhiyue’s death had already been sent by the sect half a month ago via messenger pigeon.
Even through the gate, Xia qingchen could sense the sorrow in the manor.
Zhang zhiyue was the most dazzling genius in the history of the Iron Horse dukedom, and she had brought unparalleled glory to the General’s Office.
Now that Zhang zhiyue had died, the impact on the General’s residence was obvious.
The manor’s door opened, and Xia qingchen stepped in.
With his amazing movement technique, he arrived in front of the mourning Hall before the guards could react.
In the mourning Hall, several members of the Zhang family were guarding the mourning Hall with gloomy faces.
Xia qingchen’s sudden appearance naturally shocked them.
“Who’s there?” An old-looking middle-aged man with an intimidating gaze and a cultivation base that was faintly approaching the minor star position shouted in a calm voice.
Xia qingchen didn’t say a word. He took down the bag on his back and passed it over.
The name “Zhang zhiyue” was hung on the bundle.
The Zhang family had already received the news that there would be disciples of Nebula sect coming to bring the ashes back.
“My son!” The old-looking middle-aged man stepped forward and hugged the box tightly.
The people in the mourning Hall burst into tears upon hearing this.
Xia qingchen didn’t like sad scenes. He silently turned and left.
However, a white figure in mourning clothes caught up and pulled on Xia qingchen’s sleeve. “Tell me, who killed my brother!” Xia qingchen turned his head and took a look.
It was a young girl with delicate features.
She was about 18 years old and was dressed in white mourning clothes, giving off a sad and beautiful feeling.
Tears rolled down her face, and her eyes were filled with hatred.
“Dark Moon ghost Arhat.” Xia qingchen spoke calmly.
The young lady’s grip on Xia qingchen’s clothes tightened as she questioned, “”Why would you let big brother face the ghost Arhat? Why? Why?”
Faced with her questioning, Xia qingchen only pushed her hand away gently.
He could understand the family’s feelings.
“Lian Xing!” General Zhang wangya stopped him with tears in his eyes, “”Don’t be rude! Daren sent your brother’s ashes back to his hometown from thousands of miles away, how can you do this?”
Hearing this, the young girl named Lian Xing let go of her hand and covered her face with both hands, crying bitterly.
Zhang wangya walked over and said apologetically, ” my Lord, my daughter was rude. Please forgive her. You must be tired after traveling a thousand miles. I’ll ask the servants to take you to rest.
As he spoke, he could not help but shed tears.
“Forget it, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t stay any longer. My condolences.” Xia qingchen sighed softly.
He was about to leave.
The guard at the door hurriedly came to report.
“Great general, bad news! The Imperial Army has surrounded our General’s residence!” The guard said in a panic.
Just as he finished.
The sound of a flood of iron armor came from afar.
The majestic commander of the Imperial Guards commanded in an orderly manner, ” left officer, seal the East and West gates. Right officer, watch the north and south gates. Do not let anyone in or out!
“Yes!”
The black armored flood spread out and occupied the four corners of the General’s military headquarters.
Along the way, the maidservants screamed in shock.
The courtyard was in a state of panic.
The general of the guards led a group of people to the mourning Hall and swiftly took out an Imperial edict. “Great general Zhang wangya receives the decree!”
The members of the Zhang family knelt down one after another and listened quietly before announcing the decree.
“Great general Zhang wangya, for personal gain and fraud, has secretly formed a party and intends to rebel. I order you to confiscate his property and interrogate him after hearing the news! ”
The members of the Zhang family were unable to calm down.
Zhang Lian Xing was the most excited.
father has already resigned from his military power, ” she said indignantly. he’s ready to retire and return to his hometown. Why are you still so ruthless? ” How could he allow others to sleep on his side-bed?
Because of Zhang zhiyue, an experienced intermediate disciple of Nebula sect, the Zhang family’s status was extraordinary.
Every year, the questioning mirror Pavilion would send their higher-ups to visit the Zhang family.
He had the intention to make the Zhang family the royal family of the Iron Horse dukedom.
The current imperial family did not dare to voice their anger.
Now, Zhang zhiyue had passed away.
The pillar of the Zhang family had suddenly collapsed. To avoid any more trouble, the imperial family had taken a series of measures.
First, he removed Zhang wangya’s military power, and then he removed his trusted aides in the Army.
Now, they were actually searching for a beheading.
That stance was that he wanted to exterminate the entire Zhang family.
The commander of the Imperial Guards said indifferently, ” this is His Majesty’s order. If you want to know, then ask His Majesty. Men, capture them all. If they resist, kill them without mercy!
A group of Tigers and wolves immediately pounced over.
Zhang Lian Xing was filled with grief and indignation, and angrily said, “Foolish ruler! My father has been guarding the border for many years and has made great contributions. If he wanted to rebel, his head would have been removed long ago. Why would he wait until now?”
From the beginning to the end, the Zhang family had never thought of replacing the imperial family.
Otherwise, with Zhang zhiyue as her backing, a single order from her would be enough to change the dynasty.
It was his father who pitied the people of the Iron Horse dukedom and did not want to start a war again, causing the people to lose their homes.
Thus, he had repeatedly rejected the mirror Pavilion’s good intentions of changing the imperial family’s position.
However, he didn’t expect the Emperor to be heartless.
In the end, if they lost even a little power, they would hit them while they were down, and the tragic end of uprooting them by the roots.
“Hmph, disobeying the decree is an additional crime!” The
Commander-in-Chief kicked Zhang Lian Xing, who was trying to resist, to the ground.
The rest of the Zhang clansmen wanted to resist, but Zhang wangya stopped them. “Stop, we will obey the Imperial decree.”
If they resisted now, they would only end up being killed on the spot.
With that, the group was all tied up.
All of a sudden, the Commander-in-Chief saw Xia qingchen, who was standing silently in a corner.
“Capture this one as well!” He could tell that this person was not from the General’s residence.
However, since he was present, he would capture both of them first.
Zhang wangya hurriedly said, ” wait a moment. He’s not from my residence and has nothing to do with the Zhang family. He’s only here on orders to deliver something. Please be magnanimous and don’t involve the innocent.
From his point of view, Xia qingchen should only be a new disciple in Nebula sect.
They were weak and couldn’t even withstand a single blow from the Imperial Army.
“Catch!” The Commander-in-Chief didn’t even want to hear an explanation.
Today, not only the members of the Zhang family, but even the maidservants and servants were to be arrested and interrogated. There was no reason to let the youth in front of him go.
The two Imperial Guards at the minor constellation stage pounced over like Tigers and wolves.
However, before he could even get close to Xia qingchen, he was sent flying by the air waves around Xia qingchen.
“You’ve gone too far,” he said, looking at the Commander-in-Chief.
The Commander-in-Chief turned a deaf ear.
Anyone who dared to resist the guards was looking down on the royal family and him.
“Men, arrest him!” The Commander-in-Chief shouted mightily.
A group of Imperial Guards rushed over.
