Tonight, Xiangyang City is even quieter. In the dark, there are only a few government offices in front of them, and there are no lights in ordinary streets and alleys. Whether you go to bed or not, after experiencing various changes in the past two days, the people in the city will never dare to go out at night again.

This naturally gave the Luotian Sect more convenience, allowing them to rush straight to the front of the government office in a faster and more concealed manner. When they saw the swaying lanterns at the yamen and the only dozen servants guarding there, the thunder lightning who had taken the lead had even more murderous intent. As soon as they took a step, the man rushed out like a big eagle and rushed straight to the shocked servants.

"There are thorns..." As soon as the words were turned out, the fists as big as vinegar bowls were slamming into the noses of several people like guns, and their warning calls were dulled back. At the same time, the officers who were in the fist were beaten out like rag bags and hit the wall. They had already lost their voice when they landed on the ground.

The series of fast punches solved these guards in just a blink of an eye. The thunder light had already pushed forward with a heavy shoulder, knocking the half-closed door open, and the people followed him and rushed into the government office.

The dozens of scholars holding various weapons behind him were not willing to fall behind, and they all followed closely. At the same time, one of the people who understood the regulations in the yamen pointed to the left: "There is a prison there, and the second hall of the government office in front of him. If there are officials here, they will definitely stay in it."

"I'll go to the prison, Pei Zhui, you will lead people into the second hall, and you will have to live!" Lei Tingguang made a quick arrangement, and without waiting for the other party to reply, he greeted him, took some of his confidants, and turned to the left.

Pei Zhui was stunned for a moment and still acted according to the wishes of the guardian. In fact, as Zhao Chenghuang's confidant, he hoped that he would personally save the elders. But this would be fine. Perhaps the defense in the prison was tighter, and the Thunder Protector needed to use his own martial arts to fight for the bleeding path.

After a little delay, Pei Zhui shouted and took the lead to rushing straight to the second hall ahead. On the way, no officers and soldiers were seen, let alone any stops, so he allowed him to pass through the courtyard and enter the still empty hall.

"It seems that those officials also went to Fancheng with the officers and soldiers, which gave us a chance to turn the tables!" Pei Zhui felt certain, and glanced at him, but found that there was a light coming out of a room facing the gate of the courtyard, and a shadow at the desk was printed on the window paper. This made his eyes flash, without stopping at all, and he rushed up several steps in one step, came to the door, and kicked out with one kick.

Bang!

The door that had not been locked was loudly opened, and the lights inside were brightly illuminated, making the robe of a man in his thirties even brighter.

A huge piece of paper was unfolding on the long desk in front of him. He held his pen in his hand and was writing a quick word, writing a poem: "The river flows eastward, the waves wash away, and the eternal heroes..." It was Su Dongpo's "Nian Nujiao. Nostalgia for the Red Cliffs", and there was a stack of paper on the ground beside him, and there were also many poems written on it.

At this time, when Pei Zhui kicked in the door, he was not panicked at all. Instead, he smiled and said, "You are finally here, it's really late." If you want to come later, you don't know what to write.

"Li Ling--!" Pei Zhui's eyes suddenly shrank, staring at the other party and gritted his teeth.

"It's me, I'll wait for you for a long time!" After Li Ling said that, he put his pen on the table, slapped his hands heavily in front of his chest, making a crisp sound.

In an instant, rows of torches suddenly rose in the outer courtyard of the black wing, illuminating the second yard. At the same time, hundreds of crossbowmen were raised on the walls on both sides and on the roofs of public houses in various places.

All the bows and arrows were in the strings, and with just one order, the dense rain of arrows could shoot dozens of Luotian scholars who were already shocked in the yard into hedgehogs. It was precisely because they noticed this that they were so cold that they were completely frozen and did not dare to move.

At this moment, even Pei Zhui was completely desperate, staring at Li Ling with red eyes, and hissed: "So you guessed it early in the morning, deliberately setting up a plan and waiting for us to fall into the trap?"

"The Luotian Sect traitors in Xiangyang City cannot be just that. This is much smaller than the chaos caused by your accomplices in Fancheng. Even if a leader like Zhao Chenghuang is captured, I believe there are still quite a lot of backbones still hiding in the city.

"If you don't take you down together, even if the Xiangfan Rebellion can be quickly calmed down, it will still be a big trouble for the court in the future. Therefore, it is necessary to make you think there is still a chance, so that you can pull you out of secret."

"But... I saw that you had dispatched all the troops on the other side of the pontoon bridge, and that size..."

"Each person runs through the bridge with two torches in his hand. From a distance, it is naturally extremely large. Doing so will not only make the rebels like you hide in Xiangyang feel lucky, but also put enough pressure on Fancheng to rebel. Now, not only are there hundreds of ambushers in this yard, but also the prison, and other courtyards, there are also sufficient personnel. From the moment you enter the government office, you are already in the jar."

When Li Ling said this, he smiled at the other party again: "You only have two choices left, either die or surrender!"

"My Holy Brothers are never meticulous, but even if they are about to die, they will still pull you back!" A decisive look flashed in Pei Zhui's eyes. With this angry shout, he had already jumped up and rushed towards Li Ling, who was only a few feet in front of him.

He even made a decision that as long as he took down this high-ranking official in the court, he could force the officers and soldiers outside to surrender and retreat, and then he would have a glimmer of hope!

But as he jumped onto the ground, someone on both sides of Li Ling flashed out at the same time and was about to come up.

Two quick knives were as fast as lightning, slashing his chest and ribs. Their strength and speed were extremely shocking, which made Pei Zhui feel frightened and quickly turned his forward into a fall, and landed in a mess. At this time, he was still seven or eight feet away from Li Ling's desk, which did not pose any threat at all.

As soon as he landed, the two swords came faster and faster. As he flew left and right, he almost blocked all his evasive angles, forcing him to retreat. In a few steps, the man had retreated to the door again.

Then the two stopped at the same time and returned to Li Ling's side. Li Ling also slapped his hands again without hesitation.

He gave these traitors a chance. As long as they abandoned their weapons and surrendered after understanding their situation, they could still save their lives. But since these people are still so stubborn at this time, they will be killed without any hesitation!

While Pei Zhui rushed into the house and tried to fight to the death, the believers in the yard also roared and wanted to break through and fight again. Some jumped to the crossbowman on the roof, and some turned around and rushed to the officers and soldiers on both sides. The momentum and desperate posture looked quite fierce, and it was a sign of losing both sides and exchanging life for life.

Then, with Li Ling clapping, the battle situation immediately changed decisively.

"Swoosh swish swish swish..." The dense arrows shot from three directions like raindrops. At such a close distance, they could not dodge at all. Even if they waved their weapons with all their might, they could only sweep away one or two, and the others were shot in their torso and limbs.

Moreover, after this round of arrow rain, there was no stop. After only one breath, the second round came again, then the third round and the fourth round...

These crossbowmen arranged by Li Ling around him are the most skilled elites among the imperial guards. They can shoot a pot of arrows and dozens of arrows in a short time. How can ordinary people in the martial arts world handle it?

What's more, there are more archers in this courtyard than the Luotian Sect, so after only five rounds of arrows, almost everyone was filled with arrows and fell into a pool of blood. Only Pei Zhui, who was still breathing a sigh of relief, half-kneeling in front of the door, with more than ten arrows on his body, blood flowing down, but the person was not dead yet, staring at Li Ling, who had a plain content inside: "The true god of the Sun and Moon will avenge us..."

"Don't say that there are no gods and Buddhas in the world. Even if there are, as long as he dares to commit crimes and harm the people and the country, I will catch him and roast him with fire!" Li Ling smiled and said something that left the other party completely speechless.

In the end, Pei Zhui could only stare at Li Ling with unwillingness and resentment, then he thrust his body and fell to the ground.

At the same time, the sound of killing outside became louder and louder. While the crossbow was showing its might, dozens of thieves screamed and died, there was also a fight in the prison that was enough to make the speaker scared.

Li Ling didn't care about this. Even if the other party had a master in charge, the killing formation set up by Li Moyun and the elite imperial guards under his command would be enough to keep all the enemies in this government office.

However, the Yang brothers who had just protected him took a step forward with some concern: "Sir, if the Luotian Sect protector I met the day before yesterday went there, Brother Li would probably not be able to deal with it. Why don't we go over and take a look?"

Li Ling glanced at the two brothers and then smiled. They were not only worried about Li Moyun's safety, but also cared about revenge. They suffered a loss under Lei Tingguang's men the day before yesterday, so they were naturally dissatisfied. Now that they have the opportunity, they should return it themselves.

"Okay, but you are careful. Killing enemies is of course important, but self-protection is the most important thing." Li Ling nodded in the end.

"I understand!" The two brothers responded in unison, and without taking the others, they rushed towards the prison.
Chapter completed!
