Chapter 117 Sensation around the world
Battle of Taiping Mountain.
The curtain finally fell.
Nathaniel was stronger than expected.
If Yu Xiao had not been cautious enough and made an extra round of preparation, he would have been able to practice the Mountain Moving Skill to mastery and improve his cultivation to the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Then want to kill him.
It’s really not an easy thing to do.
Of course, Yu Xiao still didn't use up all his trump cards. For example, the talismans he prepared in advance were useless, and he didn't use the ancient temple space for assistance.
This battle is of great significance.
First, obtaining enough cultivation materials will be of great help to Yu Xiao’s personal cultivation.
Secondly, the killing of Nathaniel and Nathan would greatly hinder the advancement of the war, resolve the crisis in the provincial capital, and greatly reduce the pressure on the Daxia Association.
Thirdly, this battle proved that Yu Xiao already possessed the combat capability of a “Martial Saint” level!
Martial Saint and Grandmaster are completely different concepts.
Even a powerful Grandmaster cannot fight against a fully armed army at the same time.
If an enemy is attacked by a dozen rifles or several machine guns in a narrow terrain, theoretically he can be suppressed and killed.
The Martial Saint is different.
The power of a full-strength attack from such a strong man is equivalent to that of a heavy artillery, enough to destroy a building, and the overall combat power is comparable to that of a full-strength infantry battalion.
Ordinary light weapons are meaningless. It is necessary to use multiple heavy machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, and even artillery coverage, which is enough to make any major force and any person fear it.
With my current strength.
The potential threats to this world are few and far between.
But at this moment, Yu Xiao felt that many people were breaking into the formation. It should be that the troops stationed nearby discovered something unusual.
The fog array can cover up sounds but it also has its limits. The noise of the battle just now was so loud that the vibration could be felt at the foot of the mountain. It is not surprising that the guards were alarmed.
Not to mention that Yu Xiao’s magic power was almost exhausted.
Even if he was in full condition, with his current level of cultivation, he would not be able to trap hundreds or even thousands of people at the same time.
Collect the spoils first.
Then he quickly ran away.
And as expected.
The Blood Prince is equivalent to a seventh-level Qi Refining monster, capable of condensing more valuable blood essence crystals, which is the main material Yu Xiao uses to refine the Blood Yang Pill.
This bloodbath at Taiping Mountain not only killed Nathaniel, but also killed a great elder of the vampire clan, four elders of the vampire clan, and eighteen high-level vampires.
It is enough to refine one top-grade blood marrow pill, four high-grade blood marrow pills, and eighteen ordinary blood marrow pills.
Other than that.
Yu Xiao also found two secret blood crystals on Nathaniel's body, which were very valuable high-quality refining materials.
It can be used to refine new magical instruments.
It can also be used to strengthen existing magical tools.
When Yu Xiao finished collecting the spoils, the fog array could no longer be maintained, and dozens of masters, hundreds of guards and soldiers poured into the Taipingshan official residence.
"Oh no, my God, what happened?"
Everyone was horrified.
The luxurious Governor's residence was in ruins.
More than 70% of the main building collapsed and was in ruins.
"No!"
"Sir Nathan is dead!"
"Who did it?"
"Where is Lord Nathaniel? Go find Lord Nathaniel!"
"..."
Everyone first found Nathan lying in the garden. The Governor of Hong Kong City was beheaded in a tragic way.
Soon after.
Nathaniel's body was also found.
This most sought-after figure in the empire was now lying in the ruins of his official residence, and he was no longer dead.
"Nathaniel was killed too!"
"Impossible, this is impossible. How could anyone in this world kill Lord Nathaniel?"
"Where is the murderer?"
"The assassin must be caught!"
"..."
Several senior British officials and military commanders stationed in Hong Kong rushed to the scene without asking questions, and when they saw the bodies of Nathaniel and Nathan.
Everyone was shocked, angry and frustrated!
Nathaniel was one of the brightest stars of the empire, yet he died together with the Governor of Hong Kong in the heavily guarded and surrounded Governor's residence.
How can this be?
Once this matter is reported back to the country.
They all cannot escape the blame!
The most outrageous thing is that the assassin not only sneaked into the official residence and assassinated the two adults, but also came and went without a trace and left no trace at all.
"Search!"
"Search the mountain immediately!"
"Seal off all checkpoints in the city!"
"They can't possibly get away so quickly!"
"Even if we have to turn the city upside down, we must find these assassins!"
"..."
When the port city was in chaos.
Yu Xiao stayed quietly in the ancient temple, took several times the amount of high-quality spiritual-replenishing pills, regulated his breathing and meditated for an hour or two, and his magic power was basically restored.
By the way, I took a look at the stone tablet.
Current personal information is as follows:
----
Name: Yu Xiao.
Physiological age: 23 years old.
Real age: 36 years old.
Reputation: 14611/30000 (awesome).
Luck growth: 9 points per year.
Luck: 142
Merit: 9635.
-
Kill Nathaniel.
Plus a group of vampires.
In total, about three thousand merits were gained.
The power of merit is once again approaching ten thousand.
Nathaniel's strength is obviously far greater than Ruiliancheng's.
However, the amount of merit gained from killing the former is less than one-third of that of the latter.
This can be seen.
The acquisition of this merit.
It has no direct relationship with strength.
After a little hesitation, Yu Xiao built the second ancient temple building, the "displacement control platform".
【Merit -8000! 】
When Yu Xiao offered eight thousand merits, the ancient temple shook again, and a stone platform rose in front of each double door.
"Is this the control platform for the double-door space coordinates?"
When Yu Xiao walked to the stone platform of "Dajing Gate", the blurry picture in the gate suddenly became clear.
What appears inside the door is the place where one leaves the big scene and returns to the ancient temple.
The battle was over for three hours.
There were many English and Indians wearing British military uniforms running around in front of them.
Sometimes he was only one or two meters away from Yu Xiao, but it was impossible for him to see, let alone enter the ancient temple.
"interesting!"
“This can also be used as a surveillance camera.”
"It's a pity that I can only see the images but can't hear the sounds inside."
Yu Xiao began to control it with his mind.
The perspective presented in the double doors first rotates 360 degrees on the spot, allowing you to take in the entire surrounding situation.
There are still quite a few people in the ruins of the official residence at this moment.
Busy with cleanup and reconnaissance searches.
Yu Xiao controlled the coordinates of the double-penetrating door to move horizontally and vertically. He felt like he was controlling a drone, and the captured images were projected onto a giant screen dozens of meters high in front of him.
Very slow.
About one meter per second.
But it is a real displacement.
This means that the round-trip location is no longer fixed, and Yu Xiao can freely change the specific landing location to avoid risks or coordinate tactics.
Of course, it’s not without cost.
【Merit -1! 】
【Merit -1! 】
【…】
Yu Xiao discovered that as long as he used the console, the power of merit would be consumed.
Generally, 1 point of merit is consumed per second.
If the coordinates are moved, the consumption will increase several times.
After Yu Xiao controlled the double penetration and moved for dozens of meters, the power of merit was depleted by three hundred points.
Almost done playing!
There is no need to waste merit and energy.
Yu Xiao discovered eight senior English personnel through double-door reconnaissance, including senior officials of the Hong Kong government and military figures of high rank.
The eight people, protected by their entourage, are personally supervising and directing the on-site search, probably hoping to find more clues about the attackers.
Yu Xiao thought about it.
With today's strength.
The potential threats to the Grand View world are already very few.
Since he had done such a big thing, even if he didn't expose himself completely, he could still use it to boost his reputation.
and.
Nathaniel killed them all.
It wouldn't hurt to kill a few more.
Yu Xiao simply disguised himself with a mask and returned to the crime scene through the double door.
"Who is it?!" Several vampire masters immediately became alert.
Yu Xiao is a ruthless person who doesn't talk much.
He summoned the Green Sword and attacked directly.
The eight senior English officials stationed in Hong Kong immediately felt a sense of crisis.
"It's the murderer!"
however.
The voice just fell.
The Qingmang Sword has arrived in front of him.
With lightning speed, it pierced through the hearts of eight people and killed several of their followers and guards.
suddenly!
So weird!
The assassin appeared out of nowhere.
Eight senior executives were killed in the blink of an eye.
Who would have thought that after assassinating Nathaniel, the killer didn't flee, but was lurking nearby? It was simply lawless and insane!
This was a sudden counterattack.
Another brace was scored.
Kill eight important people at once.
So much so that others had no time to react.
Yu Xiao's magic power has been restored, and he uses all his strength to activate the Qingmang Sword to launch a fierce attack on the others.
"what!"
"Help!"
"Damn it, it's the killer, catch him!"
"Don't let him escape this time. Everyone, attack him together, regardless of life or death!"
"..."
Twenty to thirty vampire masters and three to four hundred elite soldiers were mobilized and organized at the first opportunity.
When Yu Xiao controlled the Qingmang Sword to eliminate all eight followers, there were people in three layers around him, and at least dozens of guns were fired.
Da da da!
Bang bang bang!
The rain of bullets was quite dense.
Yu Xiao would not be stupid enough to use his body to withstand the attack, so he summoned a red blood shield to block in front of him.
Attacks with guns and cannons.
Eighty to ninety percent were blocked by the Red Blood Shield.
Even if one or two stray bullets or shrapnel hit Yu Xiao occasionally, they could not cause any harm to his body which was blessed by the blood and energy of the grandmaster.
then.
A shocking scene takes place!
Yu Xiao controlled the giant shield with one hand to block the firepower, and controlled the Qingmang sword with the other hand to launch an attack. He was able to move forward and backward freely in the hail of bullets.
First, use the Qingmang Sword to kill the vampire master.
He then launched an attack on the army, reaping lives with devastating force.
The soldiers in the back row couldn't see the magic sword at all.
Only a flash of green light was seen.
Several heads fell to the ground in the front row.
This method is unheard of.
Panic soon ensued.
"devil!"
"He is simply the devil!"
"No, we can't defeat him. He is the murderer of Marquis Nathaniel!"
"..."
When Yu Xiao calmly fought against the hail of bullets with his own strength, he killed more than ten vampire masters and seventy to eighty soldiers.
Facing the fire coverage formed by dozens or hundreds of guns.
No damage from beginning to end.
Can't hurt it in the slightest.
Morale begins to collapse!
Every soldier felt a deep sense of powerlessness and fear. In the end, no one knew who took the lead, and the others all chose to flee.
"Want to escape?"
Yu Xiao controlled the Qingmang Sword and killed dozens of people, and only less than one-third of the people escaped.
It won't be long.
Through their spread.
This incident, combined with Nathaniel’s death, will surely become global headlines, allowing Yu Xiao’s reputation to grow on a large scale again!
"call……"
Yu Xiao let out a sigh of relief.
Although he had reached the sixth level of Qi Refining, he was controlling two magical instruments at the same time, resisting the dense firepower while frantically counterattacking and killing, which consumed a lot of energy.
Just for a moment.
Mana consumption exceeded one third again.
With the current strength, it is not a problem to confront 300 elite soldiers head-on, but once the number exceeds 600, it will be difficult. It is best to avoid the attack when the number exceeds 800.
The magical power of a monk is not infinite.
Every time the Green Sword is activated, mana is consumed, and every time the Red Blood Shield is used to offset an attack, mana is also consumed.
The spiritual energy in this world is thin.
So it will be more difficult.
Yu Xiao put away the two magic weapons and glanced at the battle scene. The ground was littered with Indians and Englishmen he had killed.
however.
I don’t know when it started.
There is no feeling anymore when killing people.
Yu Xiao would not feel uncomfortable with bloody scenes, nor would he feel guilty for killing too many people at one time.
perhaps.
From the bottom of my heart.
They just didn't treat them as human beings! As a cultivator who was above the ordinary world, how could Yu Xiao have any sympathy for a bunch of invaders and colonizers?
Don’t do it!
Never give up!
Keep taking action.
Destroyed all the way.
Kill from the mountain to the bottom of the mountain.
From Kowloon Peninsula to Victoria Harbour.
More than ten warship commanders and forty or fifty mid- and senior-level English officers were killed one after another.
With the current cultivation level.
The immortal cultivator attacks from a lower dimension.
Ordinary people have no power to resist.
The spatial displacement alone, combined with the invisibility and illusion techniques, is enough to render any defense ineffective.
Just get the intelligence.
Just lock on to the target.
There is almost no possibility of survival!
……
The next day.
The Daxia rebel army received the news.
Nathan is dead! Nathaniel is dead!
Seven out of ten senior English officials and military officers stationed in Hong Kong were assassinated!
Even if there are some that slip through the net.
He also hid himself and dared not show his head.
At this moment, he was completely unable to command the army.
The garrison in English Harbor City fell into chaos and even paralysis. This was the best opportunity to take advantage of the situation!
The Daxia army quickly increased its troops by 10,000.
Launch a counterattack on the port city.
Unexpectedly, this counterattack was more successful than expected. The rebels easily broke through the British defense line and directly attacked the leased land.
a few days later.
The headquarters of the Great Xia Association.
"Good news!"
"What a great victory!"
"Our army has recovered the leased land."
"A total of 13,000 English soldiers were captured or surrendered!"
"Not only did we seize tens of thousands of guns and artillery pieces in this battle, we also intercepted and captured 42 large and small warships!"
"..."
good news.
One after another.
The top leaders of the Daxia Association were all confused.
This wave is a complete win!
How could this be?
Unreasonable!
Isn't it too easy to fight?
It makes people doubt whether they are in a dream!
The top leaders of the Daxia Association immediately analyzed the reasons why they were able to win this battle so easily:
"no doubt!"
"This great victory is entirely thanks to the help of the master!"
"If this expert hadn't assassinated Nathaniel, Nathan and others, the English would never have lost their composure!"
"who is it?"
"Take the general's head from among the ten thousand troops!"
"Is there such a master in this world?"
"..."
Song Zhibai: "I know who it is!"
Ye Biqing, the new vice president of the Daxia Association, asked, "Who?"
"Mr. Yu!"
"What? Yu Xiao!"
Zhao Zhenguo, the president of the Daxia Association, asked: "Although Mr. Yu is a rare hero in the world, such a shocking act would not be easy to accomplish even for the martial arts alliance with so many experts..."
"Everyone, please see!"
Song Zhibai took out a stack of photos.
He is in charge of intelligence work in the Daxia Society. These are photos of the scene obtained through various channels, including the massacre scene on Taiping Mountain.
"This is……"
When seeing these photos.
Mu Guihong's expression changed: "Most of these people died by sword, and I have seen this kind of sword wound several times!"
To be precise.
At least twice.
Once at the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Shark Gang.
Sacre Coeur once!
"Wan Xiong, the leader of the Wansha Gang, Monroe, the bishop of the Sacred Heart Cathedral, and the soldiers who were killed on Taiping Mountain, they were most likely killed by the same person!"
This way.
The answer is obvious.
Zhao Zhenguo was shocked and said, "Could it really be the mysterious Grandmaster behind the Martial Alliance?!"
"It can't be the Grand Master taking action!"
Mu Guihong said firmly:
"Although I don't know how strong Nathaniel is, he is no weaker than Morton, or even Rui Liancheng!"
"Let alone a Grandmaster, even if three or five of them joined forces, it would be difficult to take his head from among the thousands of troops!"
"What's more, after killing Nathaniel, this man not only did not retreat but continued to attack, and even forcibly killed his way through the army's encirclement. This is not something a grandmaster can do!"
Zhao Zhenguo: "Could it be that this mysterious master is not a grandmaster at all, but the legendary... Martial Saint!"
These two words.
The portion is too heavy!
Almost legend and myth
There hasn't been a martial saint in the world for three or four hundred years.
No one present knew how powerful the Martial Saint was.
"possible……"
Mu Guihong's eyes flashed with enthusiasm: "I personally saw the scene where Rui Liancheng was killed. That blow far exceeded the limit of a grandmaster. Maybe he is the legendary martial saint!"
Everyone looked at each other in shock when they heard this!
"The Martial Alliance actually has a Martial Saint in charge?"
"Martial Saint... Incredible!"
"From ancient times to the present, there are only a handful of such strong people."
"That is a truly terrifying existence with the power to move mountains and the aura to overwhelm the world, enough to intimidate an entire army by itself!"
"Even today, the birth of a Martial Saint is enough to deter anyone, any force, or even a country!"
"..."
When everyone in Daxia meeting was discussing.
Another important piece of information was sent in.
"President, everyone, there is new news about this mysterious master."
"According to the latest intelligence!"
"This mysterious master is not only a martial arts expert, but also has the inheritance of an ancient Qigong practitioner!"
The Daxia Club also obtained a negative in Gangcheng.
After this film is developed.
It's a blurry snapshot.
A masked man in black was seen walking out of the assassination scene in a dignified manner, with two objects suspected to be floating around him.
"Ancient Qigong practitioner?"
"What is an ancient Qigong practitioner?"
"..."
Even among the top leaders of the Daxia Association, not many people have heard of the ancient Qigong practitioners.
Zhao Zhenguo said: "I have heard a little bit about it. It is said that it is a kind of cultivator before the Qin Dynasty who has the ability to control weapons in the void and perform magic spells."
"I've heard a little bit about it too."
Mu Guihong: "But I heard from my master that ancient Qigong practitioners were almost extinct in the Han Dynasty, and the current environment is no longer suitable for their practice and life."
"Who is this person?"
"With the cultivation of a Qigong practitioner, I'm afraid no one in the world can defeat him. How could such a strange person exist in the world?!"
"..."
When everyone was discussing.
Ye Biqing and Song Zhibai stared at the photo, and both of them showed a series of complex expressions.
There are daze, suspicion, astonishment and shock.
The end is unbelievable.
Zhao Zhenguo noticed something was wrong with the two of them.
"Old Ye, Zhibai, did you see anything?"
The two looked at each other.
They saw the answer from each other's eyes.
"You see it too?"
"Yeah, I see, but I'm not sure."
"You say it or should I say it?"
"Then you should come... My scalp is numb now!"
When I saw the two of them like this.
The others were all at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
Zhao Zhenguo said seriously: "There's nothing for people like us to be afraid of. Stop keeping us in suspense and tell us now!"
"Yes!"
"You dare to kill nine clans."
"What in the world can scare us?"
"Say it!"
Under the urging of everyone.
Ye Biqing had no choice but to clear his throat: "I suspect there is no hidden master behind the Wumeng."
"What do you mean?"
Ye Biqing: "This person is Yu Xiao!"
"what?"
"What did you say?!"
This time, not only Zhao Zhenguo felt like he was struck by lightning.
The other senior executives of the Daxia Association at the scene were also stunned and their scalps tingled.
Yu Xiao?
Everything.
Could it be that he did all this?
Mr. Yu... is a martial arts saint?!
"Now that you mention it... I see that although this person is wearing a mask, his figure is indeed very similar to Yu Xiao!"
"Is it really him?"
"I heard that ancient Qigong practitioners were able to maintain their practice with natural treasures, and Mr. Yu has purchased a large number of ancient medicines in the past few years."
“This seems to correspond to…”
"No way!"
"..."
The more they thought about it, the more shocked they became.
But actually think about it carefully.
There really is some hidden and powerful person.
In fact, it is unlikely that no trace will be left for several years.
after all.
People just exist.
It will definitely leave traces.
Over the years, many forces have tried to find out the identity of this mysterious and powerful man, but no one has ever found the identity of this mysterious and powerful man, either in the past or now.
It seemed to appear out of nowhere!
If this person had never existed from the beginning, then everything could be explained, but the truth would be even more outrageous!
however.
When all the impossible is eliminated.
No matter how outrageous it is, it is the truth.
Yu Xiao might be a Martial Saint or at least have the strength of a Martial Saint!
All of a sudden.
Senior members of the Daxia congregation.
Everyone feels deep awe.
At the same time, I felt fortunate and surprised.
"Everyone, no matter who Mr. Yu is,
He has done so much for Daxia, both openly and secretly, and never sought any reward!"
"This is a true unrivaled patriot and our most steadfast ally!"
Zhao Zhenguo said: "Let's just discuss this matter behind closed doors. Don't publicize it outside to avoid causing unnecessary impact!"
"Destroy this photo immediately!"
"Yes!"
"..."
The Taiping Mountain Massacre had a huge impact!
Enough to shock the world and cause a global sensation!
Whether it is the Forbidden City in Dajing or the Platinum Palace in England.
Whether it is the nearby Japan, or the Star-Flag Country far across the ocean.
The next few days.
This will dominate all the headlines.
Princess Yaoxuan was well-informed in Shencheng and saw the relevant reports at the first time.
The title of this report is: "George Nathaniel was assassinated, and the Guangyue Wumeng officially claimed responsibility for the attack! "
Not only reported the Taipingshan Massacre.
The Wumeng even came out to admit the incident, which undoubtedly once again caused heated discussions and sensation across the country!
The current view.
National sentiment is running high.
Anti-foreign sentiment was particularly high.
One of the top English nobles and provincial governors died at the hands of a "Dajing master". One can imagine how much this boosted the morale of the people!
For the Dajing court.
This is obviously not a good thing.
The Wumeng has a close relationship with the Daxia Association.
The biggest beneficiary of this campaign was the Daxia Association.
They seized the port city lease, broke the foreign maritime blockade, and seized a large number of guns and even warships.
The reputation is greatly enhanced.
Morale is high.
The future will definitely go all the way north.
Countless Dajing soldiers and civilians will defect to the Daxia Association.
The rule of the Dajing court faced a huge threat.
Princess Yaoxuan, as the Princess Gulun of Dajing, was not worried about the safety of the Dajing court at all. Instead, a hint of excitement flashed in her eyes.
"Nathaniel's strength should not be inferior to that of a grandmaster. Yu Xiao was able to complete this perfect assassination, which shows that the power of the Martial Alliance is stronger than we imagined!"
If.
Today.
What organization is there.
Can threaten Emperor Qian.
It is definitely not the Daxia Association but the Martial Alliance!
Princess Yaoxuan knew very well that although Daxia seemed to be very powerful, it posed no threat to him at all and might even have been part of that person's plan.
The only option is to kill Emperor Qian.
Only then will there be a possibility of rebuilding the world.
At present, the only person who has the hope of achieving this is probably Yu Xiao!
It’s still a two-in-one chapter.
(End of this chapter)
