Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 265 - 231 Biting the Hook

In this brief moment, when Jian Jia returned to the inn, changed her clothes, and came back with her sword, she saw broken limbs and bodies everywhere, a mountain of corpses and a blood pool, sword energy raging in the sky, and sword light dazzling in four directions. The Immortal Soldiers and Imperial Guard were beaten into a panic, fleeing miserably.

Meanwhile, Tie Dan’s body was wrapped in sword light, surrounded by a blue glow, "Kill! Kill! Kill!" his sword whistled wildly!

He was like a humanoid sword energy storm, rampaging through the Capital, sweeping across the Three Constellations!

"This bastard... how has he become this formidable... wait for me!"

Jian Jia gritted her teeth, stomped her foot, drew her sword, and pursued closely.

"Why are you following! Get lost! Don’t get in my way!"

Tie Dan considered her a burden and left with his escape light alone...

Even though he was causing trouble, Tie Dan wasn’t entirely reckless; he acted with both brawn and brains. Despite being in a rage for days, he had at least figured out the real situation in the Three Constellations, meticulously calculating in his mind. freewēbnoveℓ.com

The rumors in the tavern had spread, reaching a point where everyone knew. Apparently, the decision to send troops had long been finalized by the Immortal Palace; those elite soldiers and generals had likely already led their troops out of the Capital, probably reached the front lines by now, beyond reach.

Even if the army was still in Sizhou, it wouldn’t matter. The Party Ban had just been lifted, the political atmosphere in the Capital was tense lately, and no one knew the attitude of those Party Members, who had been suppressed for years. Officials were strategizing and competing for power; the Three Constellations were in a period of undercurrents and unrest.

Even the Great General refused to leave the Capital, and Ziwei Constellation couldn’t be unaware of the discord in the atmosphere. Just handing over military power to outsider officials, even the eunuch retirement home had been overturned with no response. The palace was probably not confident in dispatching its top experts to suppress some mysterious demon turmoil, nor daring to rashly mobilize troops into the city—who knows whose throat the blade would end up against.

As for the noble families, although they were high and mighty, concealing numerous experts, the servants and mounts keeping watch were skilled practitioners. However, he had seen the attitude of these people from the Capital: each had a large family and business, too cautious, cleverer than the next, used to plotting and counterbalancing. They would only make a stand if directly confronted at their doorstep; otherwise, they wouldn’t intervene easily.

So, although Tie Dan was presently causing a fuss, wanting rebellion, even if he made a huge scene, as long as he didn’t directly threaten the inner areas of the Star Wall City or head for places like the South Heavenly Gate of Ziwei Constellation to court death, his actions in the outer ring were ultimately under the jurisdiction of the Six Gates, meant to be suppressed by the local officers in charge.

Yes, those were the useless ones he just chased away with his blade. In the Capital, true skills were irrelevant; connections, networks, and eye power were most important. With that guise, who’s bold enough to cross you?

Of course, in theory, under the command of the Six Gates’ three captains, it wasn’t just those worthless bullies. Excluding those waste of spaces idling away, the Left Supervisory Catching Thief Tributor under the Minister of Justice had at least a hundred usable officers, and the Inspector General Si Li commanded over a thousand Imperial Guard Armored Soldiers. The Imperial Censor also oversaw the Orchid Platform Secretary, having the authority to deploy two thousand Yulin Army and Imperial Guard troopers to assist in suppression.

These were all genuine Heavenly Soldiers and Generals. At the very least, they possessed a Divine Gang Gold Pill and donned Imperial Armor. There were hundreds of Nascent Soul Martial God level colonels and generals.

But all the same, none could withstand a single sword from Tie Dan.

So, upon hearing that a One Sword Sect member was going insane, and the Martial Gods under the Left Supervisory Tributor were killed in one move, those people naturally hesitated to come.

"Two thousand stones a month, why would you risk your life..."

"White Tiger Leaping Over the Stream!"

"Bang!"

Then, Tie Dan didn’t hold back, he jumped directly to the Star Square where the noble families resided, choosing those with large courtyards, well-decorated, and looking particularly wealthy, stormed in, sliced the stone lions guarding the gate with one sword, and charged into the residence, sweeping through with sword wind, slaughtering people in heaps.

"Ah—! Scoundrel! Who are you! Why kill my entire family!"

Having been attacked right to their doorstep, the Nascent Soul Patriarch in the backyard had to leave seclusion and confront the enemy.

Tie Dan couldn’t be bothered to talk, his sword light flashed and disappeared, darting left and right, thrice slicing in greeting.

Yet, the patriarch couldn’t withstand, was directly blinded, pierced through the heart, split open heart and lungs, decapitated and killed.

Trash

Then he leapt to the next door to continue.

"Spare me, spare me! Immortal, spare my life!"

The patriarch next door was even more spineless, trying to flee, hence Tie Dan rushed forward, cut him down with a sword, slaughtered and disemboweled, hacked him to bits, threw the remains outside, intestines hung on the valve hanging down, swinging like a pendulum.

Useless

"Madman! Madman!"

"Everyone join forces!"

"Where are the Six Gates! Where have the Six Gates gone!"

"Ahhh! My son!"

"Save us!"

As expected of the Three Constellations Capital, a single Star Square gathered a dozen large families on average, each hosting a Nascent Soul Patriarch—it was quite impressive. But they were all rubbish; Tie Dan slaughtered his way through, not encountering anyone who could withstand three of his moves.

Thus it was routine: breaking in, killing and setting fires, after slaughtering one would go to the next, emptying the entire Star Square before seeking another, clearing street by street. As long as there were those two dog-tethering pillars at the entrance, he’d kick down the door and, from house to house, eliminate the clan, just to vent his anger.
