In the future, Earth becomes a relic of the mythical era.

Chapter 201 I am the Prince Jing, who dares to act presumptuously!

Qiao Village.

"Husband, what are you going to do?!"

Qiao Shi and Qiao Xiaomei each grabbed one of Qiao Da's arms.

"You and the villagers should go out and hide for a while. I'll go check out the dock."

With tears streaming down her face, Qiao cried and scolded, "What kind of hero are you going to play now? What good will it do you at a time like this?"

"Even that Young Master Xie knew to hide when disaster struck, so why are you so foolish?"

Xie Lingxin left without saying goodbye. When they heard the news of the Shence Army's massacre, they thought she had already escaped.

Qiao Xiaomei opened her mouth, wanting to say that Brother Xie wasn't that kind of person.

She was inexplicably saved when the soldiers came to kill and plunder.

She didn't know what was going on, but then Sister Suzhen suddenly appeared to comfort and take care of her.

She subconsciously felt that this matter might be related to Brother Xie.

But she had no basis for her claim.

Qiao Da shook off his wife's hand: "What do you know, you woman!"

“My brothers are all on the docks. How can I watch them suffer and run away?”

"Stop nagging, go out and hide with the villagers for a while, I'll be right back!"

After saying that, he ignored his wife's crying and ran away with a harpoon.

Qiao Da spoke lightly, but he knew that his trip would likely end in disaster.

He had witnessed firsthand how ruthless the Shence Army was during his many years on the Grand Canal.

On his way to Mengjinkou, he encountered many Shence elite cavalrymen who blocked various key road intersections.

They kill anyone they see, regardless of who they are.

None of those who saw them survived.

Relying on his knowledge of the area, Qiao Da managed to evade the Shence Army's sight and made his way to the riverbank without being discovered.

He plunged directly into the river.

With his swimming skills, he can stay underwater for almost the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

The Shence Army's boats and manpower, which were positioned across the river, were no match for him, allowing him to reach the Mengjin Wharf from underwater.

Emerging from the water, he saw the horrific scene of blood flowing like a river and corpses strewn everywhere at Mengjinkou, and his eyes immediately turned bloodshot.

How many of those people are his brothers who traveled all over the country with him?

Nowadays, it's probably difficult to even find a complete corpse!
"Roar!"

A giant tiger leaped and soared amidst the encirclement and attack of numerous elite Divine Strategy soldiers.

Few could withstand this giant tiger; anyone who touched it would be sent flying.

However, these Shence Army soldiers were all fearless and undaunted.

They rushed forward one after another.

Although the giant tiger was fierce, it was unable to break free from the entanglement in a short time.

Xie Lingxin stood amidst a pile of corpses, with Zhang Zhihong protecting him on either side. Although he was eager to kill the enemy, he dared not leave lightly, fearing that the young man would be injured by the aftershocks.

This battle formation was filled with an aura of iron-blooded brutality.

These Shence Army soldiers were all highly accomplished in martial arts, their blood and energy gathered together, like a giant furnace, extremely hot.

It's practically the nemesis of anything possessed by the Yin spirit!
Xie Lingxin dared not release the Yin Spirit at all.

At this moment, he can only rely on Wangcai.

"Let me pass!"

"How dare you! I am the magistrate of Mengjin County! Let me through!"

At this time.

A burst of shouting and cursing came from the exit.

The general squinted at the giant tiger entangled with his elite soldiers, glanced back, and waved his hand.

The cavalrymen parted to make way for them.

A man in official robes staggered in, carrying his robes, and trembled at the sight of the carnage before him.

He pointed directly at the unassuming general and yelled, "Su Zuoming! Have you gone mad?!"

"Who gave you the audacity to slaughter civilians!"

Su Zuoming sneered: "Lord Cui, this matter has nothing to do with you. I advise you not to meddle in other people's business."

The man shouted, "I...I...I will definitely report you to the court! You slaughtered the people, how many heads do you have!"

Su Zuoming said indifferently, "Cui Chenglin, if you are not afraid of implicating the Cui family, you are welcome to go and report it."

"you you……"

Just then, Qiao Da, who was in the water, seized the opportunity and rushed out, thrusting his harpoon straight into the chest of a Shence soldier who had been knocked away by Wang Cai.

"Pfft!"

Blood splattered all over his face, and the Shence soldier trembled and fell silent.

"Aaaaaah! Die!"

Qiao shouted wildly, and with a burst of force, he lifted the corpse high into the air.

He shouted, "Brothers, these officials aren't letting us live, so what are we afraid of?! Let's attack together! We'll take someone down with us if we die!"

He was a familiar face at the dock; many people knew him.

As he shouted, he saw the corpse with its face covered in hot blood and its harpoon held high.

The many canal soldiers, porters, and river workers, who had previously dared not even flee, now looked at each other in bewilderment.

"Yes! Since we're all going to die anyway, why not fight these beasts?"

Someone started to speak up.

Gradually, more and more people joined in the agreement.

"Yes! Let's give it our all!"

"Kill these beasts!"

"Killing one is enough, killing two is enough to make a profit!"

"Brothers, let's charge forward side by side!"

People tend to follow the crowd.

Under the oppressive force of utter despair, they began to abandon their fear one by one.

Pick up whatever you can get your hands on, such as carrying poles, harpoons, sticks, machetes, ropes, etc., and use them as weapons.

There were at least tens of thousands of people on the dock, and the momentum they generated made Su Zuoming narrow his eyes slightly.

He then let out a cold laugh.

It's ridiculous! A bunch of lowly ants dare to rebel?

With a wave of his hand, hundreds of riders surged out from behind him.

The hoofbeats were rapid like drums, and the glint of the blades was like snow.

In an instant, blood splattered, heads fell one after another, and severed limbs were scattered everywhere.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" Cui Chenglin looked at the horrific scene before him, at the corpses that had been hacked down one by one, and felt a heart-wrenching pain, tears streaming down his face.

He kept jumping up and down, rushed to Su Zuoming's horse, cursing and pleading.

Su Zuoming remained unmoved throughout.

"brute!"

Zhang Zhihong disregarded everything else, leaped out, kicked up a knife on the ground, and with a flash of light, cut down several Shence soldiers in a few breaths.

Xie Lingxin felt a sudden pang in her heart as she looked at the horrific scene before her.

They also disregarded things like the furnace of blood and qi, and the nemesis of yin spirits.

"hold head high--!"

The high-pitched whistling sound shook the surrounding area.

A white shadow burst forth from the top.

A huge white dragon, several tens of feet long, coiled and flew, shaking its head and wagging its tail.

It darted through the crowd.

In an instant, more than a dozen people were swept away and collapsed.

"dragon?!"

"It's a dragon!"

The title "Son of Heaven" is used to refer to emperors.

In such times, dragons are awe-inspiring.

Not only the canal workers and porters, but even the elite Shence Army soldiers were intimidated.

"Hmm? A spirit?"

A cold glint flashed in Su Zuoming's eyes as he shouted, "Where did this heretic come from? How dare you use evil magic to harm my soldiers!"

The Great Zhou Dynasty is different from the Federation; its cultivation system is more complete.

They don't practice any spiritual cultivation; only highly accomplished Buddhist or Taoist masters can achieve astral projection.

The sage revered Buddhism, but he dared not slander Buddhism.

However, we cannot allow panic to spread.

He had no choice but to speak up and "point out" that this was a heretical path.

"Qiang!"

Su Zuoming drew his long sword from his waist, his whole body radiating a powerful aura of blood.

A pillar of blood, almost tangible, shot into the sky.

A single breath, flowing straight through the entrance hall, soars to the heavens!
The Five Barriers of the Physical Body!
Xie Lingxin's pupils dilated slightly.

Just one step away is the legendary state of "Five Dynasties Paying Homage to the Emperor" and "Perfecting the Body and Furnace."

He may not be a match for you now.

Moreover, with the enemy's army on his side, his chances of winning were even lower.

With a thought, the white dragon flew back and circled around his body.

The dragon's head dipped down, hovering several feet above its head. Its eyes were like lightning, exuding an aura of majesty and holiness.

Xie Lingxin shouted sternly, "I am the Prince Jing, who dares to act presumptuously!"

Su Zuoming was shocked, his eyes widening: "Prince Jing?!"

Cui Chenglin was stunned when he heard the cries of someone in front of his horse. He staggered back and looked at Xie Lingxin, who was surrounded by white swirling around her.

He stammered, "Prince Jing..."

Is he Prince Jing, Li Rui?
Weren't they driven out of the capital?
Rumor has it that Prince Jing, Li Rui, is neither good at literature nor martial arts, and even his own eunuchs can bully and humiliate him, so that he dares not speak out.

This doesn't look like it at all now.

Either the rumor is false, or...

This Prince Jing was simply too good at hiding his true nature...

If that's true, then this Prince Jing probably has very deep intentions...

Zhang Zhihong, who was fighting fiercely, felled a Shence soldier and was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Prince Jing?!
He guessed correctly; this young man was indeed of noble birth!

He had heard of this Prince Jing, but he was not highly regarded in the court.

But in his view, the other party was, after all, a prince, whose status was evident.

With him around, surely the eunuch faction won't be able to continue their rampant slaughter?

Qiao Da, who had fought desperately alongside many porters, was miraculously still alive.

He wiped the blood from his face and stared blankly at the figure beneath the white dragon.

Xie Langjun? Is he His Highness Prince Jing?

Su Zuoming raised his hand, and the Shence Army soldiers immediately stopped fighting.

Seeing this, Wangcai also turned around and leaped down beside Xie Lingxin, baring its sharp tiger teeth and glaring at the surroundings.

The dragon coiled and the tiger crouching added a touch of mysterious majesty and nobility to it.

Su Zuoming rode out slowly.

"King Jing? Where is King Jing now?"

He sneered, "You and Song Shenxi were rebels, and you were stripped of your titles long ago, demoted to county dukes, and driven out of the capital."

"How dare you still impersonate a prince here? You are the real sinner!"

Xie Lingxin responded with a cold laugh: "My title was personally bestowed by the Emperor! How dare a mere eunuch sever it?"

"What? Wang Shoucheng is now able to act as the master of the sages?"

"you……"

Su Zuoming was speechless; no matter how arrogant he was, he dared not admit to those words.

What sharp words!
Cui Chenglin secretly praised him.

With just this one sentence, he hit the nail on the head, turning the fact that he had been stripped of his royal title into nothing more than a meaningless statement.

Even if Wang Shoucheng were to his face, he would never dare to deny this statement.

Sure enough, everything Prince Jing did in the past was an act!

"Lord Cui, I've heard you come from the Cui family of Boling, a renowned family in this era!"

At this moment, he noticed that the Prince Jing, who had been hiding so well, was actually looking at him.

"Why don't you tell this fiend whether my title still stands?"

"..."

Cui Chenglin felt a chill run down his spine.

In an instant, I understood what this prince wanted to do.

He's trying to drag himself down with him!
Although this prince is of noble blood and unparalleled in the world.

But in reality, they had nothing to rely on, otherwise they wouldn't have ended up in such a state.

If I take sides now, what will people think?
The Cui family of Boling chose this Prince Jing!
