Chen Ping's Sword

All around, the faint sound of countless common folks singing praises of peace could be heard.

First was Liu Suiyun. As soon as he unveiled his Cloud Mist Willow Silk Domain, he lost sight of his target, only seeing the cold smile of the illusion watching him.

Then, his head shook, and his entire skull exploded into a mist of blood.

He prided himself on his form dispersing and gathering like the clouds, unlike his elder brother Liu Suifeng, who had mastered the Willow Wood Transformation Technique. At this moment, cut by the Sword Light while intending to escape using the Cloud Escape Technique, he felt his spirit solidify, completely controlled by an overwhelmingly powerful Power of Thought.

The next moment, his head shattered.

Fragments of Spiritual Power, like remnants of smoke, were scattered by the breezy wind.

The surrounding Vitality dispersed.

Next was Pei Donghe.

This time, having lost his Unyielding Soul Qi, faced with a sword strike filled with killing intent from Chen Ping, he was cut into two directly from the chest.

The attacking Soul Suppressing Sound struck Chen Ping’s forehead, rebounding back and causing him slight dizziness.

This slight dizziness left no room for response.

He was directly slain on the spot.

"Can’t fight head-on, must escape quickly."

Mu Yuanzhen was the most cunning, realizing the dire situation, he merely threw a feigned attack, without awaiting the outcome, transformed into a flash of lightning, and fled frantically in the opposite direction of the escape path of the True Martial King.

He understood well.

Knowing Chen Ping’s true target was the True Martial King Ji Changfeng, the intent to kill them might not be as strong.

This rising talent of the Shenxiao Sword Sect was indeed a genius with intelligence matching his cultivation power.

But little did he expect.

He couldn’t withstand even a single Sword Light.

Making it a hundred yards away, just as Mu Yuanzhen sighed with relief, a golden Sword Light appeared before him, reflecting the mountains and rivers.

This Sword Light suppressed his spirit, locked his soul, traced an arc, tightly trailing behind.

He raised his sword to defend, and his expression froze.

His body was cut into two pieces, his spirit dissipated.

"I..."

In the last moment, Mu Yuanzhen couldn’t believe he would actually die under a gentle Sword Light from the opponent.

Had he known earlier, what was the point in all the scheming and plotting amidst it?

In the face of absolute power, all conspiracies crumbled easily.

Chen Sanquan too perished under a Sword Light; his Jade Brush Points Dragon hadn’t even been released before being shattered by Chen Ping’s casual sword stroke.

Zhang Tongmu swung his axe at Chen Ping, passing through an illusion, then he knew no more.

Fan Chengguang unleashed dozens of Abacus Celestial Net Pearls, but didn’t have time to examine the results before Chen Ping collided into him, causing his plump body to explode like fireworks amid a thunderous boom.

The taciturn and ruthless Pei Dongwei had long forgotten his bold declarations.

Especially when he saw his cousin Pei Donghe being cut into two before his eyes, without hesitation, he fled closely behind the True Martial King.

At this moment, he chose to believe in the True Martial King.

Hoping the latter had an unknown trump card to turn the tide and escape death.

As it turned out, he expected too much.

Chen Ping’s pursuit speed was even faster than he imagined.

The strength and ruthlessness of his attacks made it seem as if they faced a Venerable Divine Martial rather than a Unity Realm expert.

Chen Ping chased not too hastily but if any blocked his path, he swung his sword, shattering man and horse alike.

Three thousand cavalry thundered behind, the True Martial King was firmly locked by Chen Ping’s spirit, feeling unable to evade Chen Ping’s full-force strike no matter which direction he fled, he finally didn’t lose the royal dignity of the Ji Family.

Turning back, standing still, he rasped, "Victory goes to the king, losers become captives; I am defeated in this battle, Jiangnan is yours."

"Do you need to offer it? Look at your face acting out."

Chen Ping of course did not forget the cruelty and treachery of the True Martial King’s previous venomous schemes.

A slight misstep and he could have died.

Moreover, he might have implicated tens of thousands of citizens in Xingqing Prefecture City, sending them to the Yellow Springs.

Against Fang Qingzhu, even Chen Ping conceded that the brilliance and venom of the opponent’s plan were rare in a lifetime.

Using strength to counteract strength, mastering the art of defeating soldiers without fighting.

Unnoticed, he suffered a crushing defeat.

Therefore, this patient and ambitious hero, along with his primary advisors.

All must die.

With a sword stroke, Chen Ping sent the True Martial King’s head flying into the air.

The residual Sword Momentum sliced through, Pei Dongwei showed a look of disbelief as he was cut in two.

At this moment, he finally understood why so many Unity Realm Grandmasters ahead couldn’t withstand Chen Ping’s Sword Light.

When the opponent swung his sword, even the void seemed to be cleaved, so heavily that it defied belief.

No matter the means, facing this unimaginably heavy sword, unless evading it in advance, one couldn’t withstand a single strike.

"I didn’t expect you to come so quickly, to be so ruthless."

Feng Yuantu’s face was ashen, his eyes desolate.

He knew he had no way out; he had offended too seriously before; now, unless proving more valuable, it’s a dead end.

"If it were months ago, Mr. Feng, I would have spared your life..."

As the saying goes, talent is rare; Feng Yuantu, known as "North Wen Mountain, Southern Origin Map," used tactics harshly and cruelly, injuring harmony greatly.

Now, seeing his success, with Jiangnan soon in hand, there was no need to spare someone who once plotted against him.

"I am skilled in the art of mechanisms and can accumulate wealth from across the world. Furthermore, I deeply understand the secrets of Noble Families and Sects, especially those regarding Jiangnan affairs, knowing them well, I could save the lord years of time, stabilize the disorder early, and provide peace to the people."

Feng Yuantu knelt amid ten thousand troops.

"Alright."

Chen Ping sheathed his sword.

Quelled the killing intent.

...

As Chen Ping sent men to announce the news of the True Martial King’s death to the troops, it immediately shattered all fighting spirit of the True Martial Army.

The Xingqing Prefecture army set out, accepting the surrender of the defeated troops...

The next morning, at dawn, Chen Ping led twenty thousand cavalry, heading with his top experts straight to Vice Capital Youjing.

With swift speed, they charged into Huanglong directly.

He intended to seize the millennia-old capital while the Vice Capital was still unprepared in the wake of the True Martial King’s recent death.
