""Why are you here?""

The man was silent for a moment, then ordered the door closed.

Behind An Xuan, Qu Liuxi and Gu Qianye made their preparations for a b.l.o.o.d.y battle.

The two men ran to close the door and put the wood back on top.

At this moment, on the walls of the courtyard and on the rooftop, there were people in black robes who had their hands extended in defense. They were aiming their crossbows at An Zhe and his men.

""There might be some misunderstanding here, put down the knife first.""

The man looked at An Zhe and spoke with a calm tone.

An Zaiyue looked at that face, the kind face that had appeared several times in front of him.

In the Martial Arts Academy, there were endless praises for him.

Outside the Martial Arts Academy, he was reminded to pay attention to Ding Shengxia.

Head of the Infantry Division... Xu Chao.

Xu Chao pressed his hands down, signalling those people not to take action.

However, because they had fought and killed, the men in black were hostile towards them.

""You just arrived at the capital and just entered the Martial Arts Academy. There are many things you don"t know.""

The Four Corridors … They were from the Infantry Division.

The Ministry of War had set up the Four Corridors Hall specifically for the purpose of recruiting people who were willing to serve the country from all over the country.

These people may not be of good birth, or may have some fault, so they can"t join the army.

""However, they are willing to shed their blood for the sake of the Yan Country. Therefore, the military cannot afford not to give them a chance.""

An Zhan sneered, ""But the Military Department is short of money, so they can"t raise these people. Therefore, they have no choice but to let them deal with things they can"t afford to do and earn some money, right?""

Xu Chao asked, ""What exactly do you mean? There must be a misunderstanding.""

An Xuan said, ""Ask your subordinate who took the money tonight and just killed a man on Spring Sun Street.""

His target was called Jin San [3], and he had just come out of the Fang Shoufu yamen not long ago.

There were two other people with him, one called Madman Qu and one called Fatty Si.

These three people are from the Heavenly Awakening Sect, and the Golden Three Token was killed by them, while Madman Qu and Fatty Four were heavily injured.

""I"d like to know how you explain this misunderstanding to me.""

Xu Chao"s expression changed as he turned around and asked angrily, ""Who went out just now?!""

One of the men following behind him had a strange expression on his face.

These people looked at each other, and some of them subconsciously took a step back.

""Gao Xiang!""

Xu Chao turned around and called out.

A gentle-looking person ran over, looking a little fat, so he ran a few steps and seemed out of breath, ""Sir, this matter … I have not reported this matter to you yet.""

There was indeed someone who went out on some errands just now, but we didn"t expect that their target would be the people from the Heavenly Awakening Sect.

""We must know that they are from the War Department. No matter how much money we have, we cannot help them.""

Pah!

Xu Chao Yi raised his hand and slapped Gao Xiang"s face, sounding especially loud. ""How many times have I said this?""

""You are not allowed to take on any business as you wish. Every business needs to be decided by me before I can make a decision.""

Gao Xiang covered his face and said, ""But my lord … the military has used up all the money they sent over. The brothers want to go to the battlefield to serve the country, because the war hasn"t been intense lately, so they haven"t ordered it.""

Everyone needs to spend money to eat and drink. Can I just watch my brothers starve? ""

""Even if they starve to death, you can"t just go out and kill them!""

A scholar swearing and swearing could be imagined how furious he was.

Gao Xiang said, ""Sir, don"t you know that the manager doesn"t know how expensive Chai Mi is? Several hundred people, several hundred mouths, are they really going to starve to death?""

Xu Chao"s face turned pale, ""You still dare to argue?""

From the very start, the Military Department has strictly ordered that no one is to take on any business. Every business has to be decided by me personally.

""Looks like you"ve all forgotten about these words.""

A burly man called out from behind, ""I was not summoned here to be angry.""

He agreed to give his father a chance to go to the battlefield and build a meritorious service, but after waiting for more than half a year, he still hadn"t received anything.

""When I was in my hometown, I ran amok, eating and drinking without restraint. Now that I am stifling in this lousy place, why should I suffer such grievances when I have no money to spend?""

The others chimed in, ""What you"re saying is, what you said was right back then, regardless of our background or what we did before, as long as we go to the battlefield, we will be given a clean ident.i.ty and make our officials rich.""

But now, not only was he unable to raise the officials and earn money, he was also suffering all day. What the h.e.l.l is this?!

""If I had known earlier that I was being treated so badly by the officer in charge of the military, I wouldn"t have come.""

Do you really think I want to serve the country?

Pah pah!

Isn"t it because you promised that you would get rid of our files somewhere, and maybe we"ll be able to make a name for ourselves?

Who the h.e.l.l is so great, we"re here for the future.

""Now that there"s no news at all, why don"t we earn some pocket money ourselves?""

An Zhan sneered, ""Mister Xu, look at these people you"ve recruited!""

Xu Chao said to An Zaihai, ""This matter is indeed my negligence. Don"t worry, I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly.""

A big man behind him shouted, ""Investigate what?""

It was I who did it!

My name is Liu Hou, from the city of Plains.

You guys go to the plains to find out, when did I not kill and set the fire to depend on my mood?

""If I want to kill someone, then kill them. If you"re so amazing, then come kill me! I"ll take revenge for the person who died for you!""

Five or six people beside him came over and said, ""We"re the ones who went out to do the work. What about it? If you want to fight, then come and fight!""

The others were all waiting, not knowing what to do.

Xu Chao looked at Gao Xiang and asked, ""So this is the person you raised?""

Gao Xiang shrugged his shoulders. ""Sir, if you say that, I have no other choice.""

You give them to me, and I"ll let them eat.

They cause trouble when they can"t eat their fill. Could it be that Lord wants to see the capital fall into chaos?

If these hundreds of people were to go out and cause trouble, they would probably alert more people.

""Don"t say that I"m not very good at doing things, I feel that I"ve done my best, and that I"ve done a good job.""

The one called Liu Hou said in a loud voice: ""Gao Dazhi is right, he did quite well.""

Six or seven people joined in the jeering, ""That"s right, we should at least have a way to earn enough money to support ourselves. What has the military been up to these days?""

""If you invite us over, you can ignore us. Are you treating us as fools?""

""Things in the martial arts world are happening in the martial arts world.""

He had only killed one person. Since the main character had come looking for him, then he would do it according to the rules of the martial world. If you have the ability to kill me, if you don"t have the ability, I will kill you again.

The two daughters behind you don"t look bad either.

""I killed your people and played with your woman, what can you do?""

Xu Chao turned his head and berated, ""Do you believe that I won"t punish you in the military law right now!?""

Liu Hou sneered: ""I"m not going to serve you anymore. Brothers, let"s go!""

he called, and half a dozen men followed him out.

However, the others didn"t immediately move. They were still waiting.

""Go?""

An Zeng pointed his long blade at Liu Hou and asked, ""Do you think you can get out of here today?""

Liu Kuang patted his chest, ""I can"t even count the number of people I"ve killed in the plains. Who are you trying to scare?""

Xu Chao quickly stopped the argument. ""An Zou, these people are indeed not clean, but the Military Department will definitely discipline them.""

""Leave this matter to the Military Department, they will definitely give you justice.""

An Zaiyue sneered, ""That"s what Xu Zhengsheng of the Fang family said as well. I just killed the culprit in front of him. He"s in the Fang family"s yamen.""

Xu Chao shouted: ""How can the Fang family compare to the army?""

""This is an internal matter of our military. Naturally, we will leave it to the military.""

An Zhan shook his head. ""This is my business. It doesn"t matter if it"s the Fang family"s yamen or the Military Department. No one can interfere with it.""

Gao Xiang pulled Xu Dang back, saying, ""Sir Xu, since this is a matter of the martial arts world, let"s not interfere.""

I think they can take care of it on their own.

""This matter isn"t something that Lord can report himself. You can report it however you want.""

Xu Chao said angrily, ""Nonsense!""

""You just wait for the military punishment!""

Gao Xiang gave a cold snort. ""I am waiting for the military punishment. Am I stupid?""

Brothers, let"s get rid of these three fellows who barged in and send our Lord Xu to the West.

When the time came, these three would barge in and kill Lord Xu. Even if the Military Department wanted to investigate, they had nowhere to investigate.

""After we finish this ticket, we will find a chance later and leave with a sum of money. We will go live a carefree life in a place as high as the skies and as far away as the emperor!""

Xu Chao"s face was extremely ugly: ""Are you guys going to rebel?""

""Someone, take them down!""

The others looked at each other without moving.

These people were not real soldiers. Although they had gone through a lot of training, their personalities were still wild.

It was already pretty good that they didn"t follow Gao Xiang"s group and fight. It wasn"t too realistic of them to hope that they wouldn"t capture Gao Xiang, Liu Hou, and the others.

An Zou dragged Xu Chao over and threw him behind himself. ""Tell the military to take a look at these animals you recruited later!""

Liu Hou roared: ""Kill him!""

Two large men rushed over, one on the left and the other on the right, their two long sabers slashed towards An Zeng"s head and neck.

An Zhan raised his saber and said, ""I"ll help the Infantry Division clean up the household!""

The long blade transformed into a pillar, the blade shook away the long blade that was chopping down, then the blade flew up to block the other blade in the air.

An Zeng"s body rushed forward and his left fist landed on the big man"s chest.

His fist smashed through the man"s chest and out his back.

When his fist broke his spine and protruded out of his body, he was clutching a heart that was still beating.

An Zhe raised the corpse with one arm and then smashed it onto the ground. He used the corpse as a weapon and knocked the second big man away.

Without waiting for the big man to stand up, An Zhe rushed over and kicked on the man"s head.

With a bang, that person"s head exploded like a watermelon that had been smashed by a heavy hammer, red, black and white flying everywhere.

An Zaiyue killed the two of them in quick succession, with the intention to kill rising to the fore. ""Those who kill my brother, travel thousands of kilometers. I will definitely kill them.""

The four to five people beside Liu Hou all rushed over, attacking An Xuan with all sorts of weapons.

These human body techniques were all extraordinary, but without the power of cultivation, they could not pose a threat to An Zaihai.

Just when An Zeng knocked the third person to the ground, Liu Hou suddenly raised his hand, and a cold light instantly flashed over. From the time he attacked to the time when An Zhe arrived, his speed was so fast that no one could react.

The flying sword!

A cultivator in the spatial realm!

This was the first time since his rebirth that he had relied on his own true strength to fight against a G.o.dly Mt. Xumi cultivator.

Last time, when he fought against the Xumi realm expert Zhen Zhuang, he relied on the bronze bell.

And this Liu Hou looked big and big, but he was incomparably sinister.

He wanted those people who couldn"t cultivate to charge up and fight with An He, but as a powerful warrior of the Sumeru Realm, he had actually launched a sneak attack!

The dagger shot out in all directions, carrying with it a chilling aura.

Clang!

An Chou raised his longsword to block it in front of his forehead, but the longsword immediately broke.

An Chou"s body flew backwards involuntarily. The words ""Fish"" on his wrist lit up, and the fish scales automatically flew out to block in front of him.

The power of the flying sword was too great, causing An Zhe to be sent flying.

""You"re courting death!""

Gu Qianye roared and reached out to grab the necklace.

An Zhan took a deep breath and stood up, his hand holding Gu Qianye"s wrist. ""No need, I"ll do it myself.""

He looked at the broken blade in his hand, then threw it to the side.

He did not take out the bronze bell, nor did he take out the item that Xu Mei-Dai had given him. After taking a deep breath, he strode towards Liu Hou.

It was a kind of grandeur that could cause millions of people to succ.u.mb to despair!
