You, a tyrannical ruler, roam the heavens; you cannot understand my joy.

Wei Zhuang wasn't the only one caught off guard.

It wasn't until Lu Zuo suddenly stormed into the General's Mansion that Mo Ya and Bai Feng realized what was happening!

"It's him! It's him, it's definitely him!"

"He's here!"

After a low shout, Mo Ya took the lead, lightly tapping his feet and shooting out, with Bai Feng following closely behind, heading towards the hall.

……

At that moment, Lu Zuo, who had just entered the hall, sensed a fierce blade aura sweeping towards him as soon as he stepped inside.

He leaned back, the blade's energy grazing his upper body before sweeping towards the door behind him!

Boom!

The two three-inch-thick wooden doors shattered instantly, breaking into thousands of pieces that shot out with a shrill whistle.

The guards who rushed to the rescue had just arrived nearby when they saw a dark cloud of sleet, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, sweeping towards them.

Puff puff puff puff...

Splintered wood pierced through his armor, like rain beating down on withered lotus leaves.

As countless streaks of blood shot out, more than twenty armored soldiers staggered and fell to the ground, making a series of muffled thuds.

Almost at the same moment, two figures drifted over and landed behind Lu Zuo.

"Hahahahaha..."

Ji Wuye, wielding a broadsword, laughed loudly, "I knew she wouldn't just sit and wait to die, but..."

Before he finished speaking, his gaze suddenly darkened, and he raised his sword to mid-air with a whoosh, the blade pointing directly at Lu Zuo: "This general did not expect this."

"The one who came to assassinate you... could it be you?"

Lu Zuo glanced around and saw that he was surrounded by martial arts masters on all sides.

Mo Ya and Bai Feng are so distinctive that their appearances are almost identical to those in the anime, making it obvious who they are without even asking.

As for the other few black-clad swordsmen whose auras were no less than Mo Ya's, he couldn't recognize them.

"General..."

A sweet, delicate voice came from the inner room of the hall.

Lu Zuo looked up and saw a young woman with a stunning figure, flowing hair, and beautiful face, walking gracefully towards him, her waist swaying like a water snake.

"Just this one kid, and he's making you this scared?"

"He doesn't seem to have much skill..."

Ji Wuye shook his head: "It wasn't him!"

"This general has someone else on his mind."

What he truly feared was the assassination of Bai Yifei, and the killing of over a thousand elite Snowcloth Fortress warriors.

As for what's in front of us...

Although they are quite strong, they are not enough to threaten my life!

Lu Zuo smiled calmly: "How did you know...?"

Before he finished speaking, he vanished from the spot!

Upon appearing, he had already reached Ji Wuye, his Demon Blade Thousand Blades, sharp and cold, piercing into his throat!

Tsk!

With a sharp sound, the thousand-bladed blade pierced through the throat and emerged from the back of the head!

Bang!

Lu Zuo kicked Ji Wuye's corpse away, then drew his long sword and said coldly, "That person wasn't me?"

With that, he raised his hand and flicked his wrist, the blade slicing through Ji Wuye's throat and severing his head.

In an instant, crimson blood gushed out like a fountain, splashing crimson blood all over the ground!

"Dead?"

"The general is dead just like that?"

Bai Feng was stunned and couldn't believe it: "The general made meticulous arrangements, even hiring assassins from the Luo Wang organization, but in the end..."

"Walk!"

With a roar, Mo Ya grabbed Bai Feng and shot out the door!

This person killed the general in an instant; his strength had reached a level that was unfathomable.

If we stay, both Bai Feng and I will die!

The two men were not very loyal to Ji Wuye to begin with, and it could even be said that they always wanted to get rid of his control.

Seeing how terrifying Lu Zuo was, how could they possibly want to continue fighting?

Following closely behind were the assassins that Ji Wuye had borrowed from the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven).

The woman was the first to fly out of the hall and disappear into the vast night!

"Terrifying! Horrible!"

"I didn't even see what he did before Ji Wuye's throat was pierced!"

"How can there be such a terrifyingly powerful expert in this world?"

"Who exactly is he? Is he a human or a ghost?"

On the high building, Wei Zhuang and Zi Nu looked at each other in bewilderment. How come seven or eight experts flew out of that place so soon after that person went in?

What exactly happened inside?

……

Lu Zuo ignored the fleeing people, picked up Ji Wuye's head, and turned to walk out the door.

Unlike those who fled when things turned sour, the five thousand elite troops that Ji Wuye had gathered were utterly loyal to him.

"General..."

"He killed the general!"

"Kill him! Avenge the general!"

A forest of halberds, blades as white as snow!

At the command of a man who appeared to be a general, a large number of soldiers surged forward like a tidal wave!

A Thousand Blades Flying Star!

Lu Zuo raised his hand and flicked it, and a series of crisp cracking sounds echoed throughout the air. The Demon Blade Thousand Blades in his hand instantly disintegrated into a thousand broken blades!

sizzle...

The shattered blade hovered in mid-air, containing a deep blue, cold light, spinning and emitting a series of piercing, sharp sounds.

The next moment!

A thousand fragments tore through the air, spinning and whistling as they hurtled towards the soldiers who rushed into the hall!

Puff puff puff...

Blood splattered everywhere, and corpses fell one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the hall was filled with corpses...

Lu Zuo stomped his feet on the ground, unleashing his true energy. The shattered blade rolled back and reassembled itself.

Immediately, he charged towards the elite Imperial Guards outside the gate like a tiger descending a mountain!

Wherever he went, his hand moved swiftly and decisively, from the hall entrance to the main gate, and then back into the courtyard, without even blinking.

Wherever he went, his hand moved swiftly and decisively, from the hall entrance to the main gate, and then back into the courtyard, without even blinking.

"This, this..."

Zi Nu's beautiful eyes widened in astonishment as she stared at the chaotic scene of carnage within the General's Mansion, muttering to herself, "Are these people even human?"

"One man against a thousand?"

Wei Zhuang's gaze sharpened as he stared intently at Lu Zuo: "This man is only in his early twenties, yet he possesses strength comparable to Master?"

He silently estimated for a moment, thinking to himself, "Even if my senior brother and I join forces, we probably won't last ten rounds."

"Just who is this person?"

……

Half an hour later, the underground mansion was opened.

"Lord Xiangguo."

An old minister looked worried: "After tonight, Ji Wuye will control most of the power in Han."

"well……"

Zhang Kai sighed deeply, "What can we do?"

"We can't just stand by and watch that vixen wreak havoc on the court, can we?"

"The only one who can oust her is Ji Wuye..."

Zhang Kaidi had no desire to join forces with Ji Wuye, but he had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure.

If the civil and military officials of the court do not join forces, that witch's confidants will not switch sides.

With an army of 100,000 under her command and the king's backing, what can we civil officials do?

"grandfather!"

Just then, a young man rushed in: "Grandfather, something terrible has happened!"

"Ji Wuye is dead!"

died?

His eyes snapped open, and he asked excitedly, "How did he die?"

"A young master appeared out of nowhere, rushing into the general's mansion as if it were empty, and killed Ji Wuye with a single strike."

"He slaughtered most of the general's 5,000 elite troops!"

"When my grandson rushed back, he had already stormed into the palace and killed several of Ji Wuye's trusted men!"

"Hundreds of thousands of imperial guards couldn't even budge him!"

"Grandson...Grandson has never seen such a terrifying person before. He...he's not even human!"
