Chapter 66
In the backyard of the Sha Family, the Third Elder’s room was brightly lit.
A skinny scout was kneeling on one knee in front of a dignified middle-aged man, reporting something. The middle-aged man listened attentively and didn’t say a word. However, his face was getting darker and angrier.
“Say no more!
How dare you hire an assassin to assassinate the Sha Family’s young master?
You must be tired of living!
I think some of the families and forces in the Sha Emperor City need to be disciplined and reorganized. Otherwise, they will be riding on the Sha Family’s head!
Sha Clan’s Third Elder, Sha Vanquisher! ”
The middle-aged man was the Sha Family’s Third Elder, Sha Vanquisher. Previously, a scout from the Sha Family had reported that Xiao Chen was ambushed by four assassins. Fortunately, Xiao Chen was strong enough to kill the enemies. He heaved a sigh of relief. He admired Xiao Chen very much and naturally didn’t want anything to happen to Xiao Chen.
Just as Sha Vanquisher finished his sentence, a middle-aged man in black armor walked to him and bowed respectfully. “Your subordinate is here!”
The middle-aged man in black armor didn’t kneel in front of Sha Vanquisher. One should know that Sha Vanquisher had to kneel in front of Sha Vanquisher. It seemed like this middle-aged man in black armor had a higher position in the Sha Family.
“Sha Vanquisher, immediately order 200 Sha Family’s black armored knights to follow me to the Ji Family’s door!
I want to see who dares to lay a finger on my Sha Family’s young master! ”
Sha Vanquisher’s already dignified face became even more dignified. There was a hint of murderous intent as if a wolf king was about to leave its lair to find an opponent to fight to the death.
“Yes!
Third Elder! ”
Sha Vanquisher, who was even colder than Xiao Chen, responded respectfully. In a flash, he left the room to deploy his troops.
Black armored knights?!
The strongest martial artists of the Sha Family’s Battle Hall!
Any one of them had a cultivation base of White Tiger level 3 and above. They were the main combat force of the Sha Family!
A group of middle and high-level martial artists that looked like an army!
The black armored knights were usually hidden in the Sha Family and rarely made a move. Unless the Sha Family declared war with other big families, they would only make a move!
Could it be that the Sha Family was going to declare war with the big families of the Sha Emperor City?
Could it be that the Sha Family was going to declare war with the big families of the Sha Emperor City?
After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, the tightly shut door of the Sha Clan suddenly opened, and a group of black-armored martial artists riding on black horses came out in a single file. During the whole process, besides the sound of the horses galloping on the ground, not a single martial artist made a single sound.
Very soon, on the spacious road in front of the house, there were four rows of knights neatly arranged. Each row had exactly 50 knights, so four rows had 200 knights.
All 200 of them were clad in black armor, and the weapons they used were the same type of saber, the kind used by soldiers.
The two hundred black-armored knights were all expressionless. In the darkness, they looked like human statues carved from black iron, emitting a dense aura. An invisible murderous aura was naturally released from their bodies, and when they gathered together, the murderous aura soared into the sky. With one look, one could tell that these two hundred warriors were all experienced soldiers!
The foundation of the Sha Clan was indeed deep. It was not by chance that they became the overlord of the Sha Clan. They had the ability!
Even if the elders and patriarchs of the Sha Family did not make a move, these 200 black armored knights were enough to sweep through the Sha Emperor City!
Compared to the black armored knights, the white armored guards of the Sha Family were far inferior. They were not even on the same level.
The white armored guards were only responsible for the daily security of the Sha Family and patrolling the Sha Emperor City. The black armored knights were the ones who attacked.
In front of the 200 black armored knights was a black knight. Sitting on the black knight was the tall and mighty Sha Tu Shen. He was looking at the direction of the Sha Family’s entrance with a solemn face, as if waiting for someone important to appear.
Da da da!
A series of crisp sounds of horse hooves could be heard coming from the entrance of the Sha Clan’s house. After a while, a purple-robed Sha Destruction Wolf riding a tall and handsome maroon horse slowly walked out. Finally, he stopped in front of the two hundred black armored knights, standing side by side with Sha Tu Shen.
“Greetings, Third Elder, Lord Sha!”
The 200 black armored knights cupped their fists and bowed their heads. Their expressions were respectful and their cold eyes were a little excited.
They might be Sha Tu Shen’s direct commander, but they knew that the dignified middle-aged man in front of them was their superior, the soul of the black armored knights.
Sha Tu Shen was usually gentle, but when it came to killing, he would turn into a ferocious wolf king with monstrous combat power.
Ten years ago, it was this wolf king who brought Sha Tu Shen and the black armored knights to Xing Yu City to quell the rebellion. At that time, Sha Tu Shen’s cultivation was only at the third level of the Blood Bear Realm and was not a Purple Elephant Realm expert. But with the Berserk Transformation God’s gift, he tore the previous city lord of Xing Yu City, who was at the peak of the second level of the Purple Elephant Realm, into pieces.
Sha Tu Shen’s prestige among the black armored knights had even surpassed the Sha Family Patriarch, Sha Tu Shen. He had become the soul of the black armored knights.
Sha Tu Shen also gained his notoriety at that time. He alone massacred over a hundred people.
Sha Tu Shen glanced at the black armored knights in front of him and nodded his head in satisfaction. He shouted, “Move out!”
Da da da!
Under the lead of Sha Tu Shen and Sha Tu Shen, the two hundred black armored knights galloped on the dark road. They were like a pair of Yin soldiers from hell with a murderous aura.
The commoners on both sides of the road had their doors and windows tightly shut, afraid that they would be implicated in the upcoming war.
The scouts from the various clans had been paying close attention to the movements of the Sha Family. When they saw the Sha Family’s third elder personally leading two hundred of the Sha Family’s strongest and most terrifying black armored knights towards the direction of the Ji Family, they were shocked. They then quickly sent the news back to their respective clans.
A storm was brewing!
In the Ji Family’s courtyard, at the residence of the Ji Family Patriarch, the sound of a teacup falling to the ground could be heard. Immediately after, an angry roar could be heard. The entire Ji Family was shaken. All the guards and family warriors were on standby while all the elders and young masters rushed to the residence of the Patriarch.
After a quarter of an hour, the Patriarch of the Ji Family, Ji Chenggong, sat on a high seat in the main hall. He had a gloomy expression as he looked at the five elders and four young masters of the Ji Family.
Among the four young masters, the Young Clan Patriarch, Ji Haoyue, was in sight. His expression was extremely ugly because he had already found out from the scouts what had happened outside. The Ji Family was about to face a huge crisis.
“Father!
I definitely didn’t hire an assassin to assassinate Xiao Chen!
Xiao Chen is too much … “Ji Haoyue reprimanded angrily. He was eager to deny that he had anything to do with the assassination of Xiao Chen.
“Shut up!
I believe what you said, but will others believe it?
Will Xiao Chen believe it?
Will the Sha Family believe it?
En? ”
Ji Chenggong interrupted Ji Haoyue’s nonsense and roared impolitely, “Xiao Chen is about to kill his way to our Ji Family’s door!
Our Ji Family can easily kill him alone, but he has the Sha Family backing him up!
The news from the scouts said that the Sha Family’s third elder and the Sha Family’s general, Sha Tu Shen, had personally led two hundred black armored knights towards our Ji Family!
What do you think we should do?! ”
“This …” Ji Haoyue was stunned by his father, Ji Chenggong. He was also frightened by the huge crisis that the Ji Family was facing. His face was as pale as a piece of white paper.
When Ji Chenggong saw that Ji Haoyue had nothing to say, he became even more furious and yelled, “I told you not to go out and fool around. Look at it now. You have offended the Sha Family’s young master. Even if you didn’t do it, others will suspect you. You have taken the blame for others and implicated the Ji Family!
What do you think we should do?! ”
“Father, you must save me …” Ji Haoyue panicked. If the Sha Family really sent out their experts to support Xiao Chen, he would definitely die miserably. Even the Ji Family wouldn’t be able to help him.
“Sigh!”
When Ji Chenggong saw his son’s hopeless look, he let out a heavy sigh. The anger on his face dissipated by quite a bit. He turned to the five elders and said in a deep voice, “Elders!
You all know about the serious situation now. What do you think of a solution? ”
“Lord Clan Leader, if we can find out the truth of the matter, this situation will be solved by itself!” A white-haired elder thought for a moment and replied with a serious face.
“Find out the truth of the matter?
If I have the time, do I need to ask you? ”
When Ji Chenggong heard this countermeasure, black lines appeared on his forehead, and he said unhappily. He did not care about the old man’s identity as a two-generation elder. After a pause, he asked the other four middle-aged elders, “Elders, do you have any good ideas?
Just say it! “
