943: Chapter 903: Welcoming the Honored Guest 943: Chapter 903: Welcoming the Honored Guest “Heavenly Might Tiger Head Cavalry?

Is this the name of this troop?”

Lu Chuan turned his head to look at Dongfang Cheng.

“I don’t know, it should be, you see the leader of the group, he is definitely of General rank.

The chest plate is shaped like a tiger’s head and golden.

It looks very thick and sturdy, the defense must be incredibly strong.”

“Is this cavalry the elite of the City Lord’s Mansion?

They are leaving the city just to greet Nangong Qianying?”

Dongfang Cheng was very curious in his heart, but now he was completely ignorant, only able to speculate.

“Young Master Lu, I’ll go ask the passersby.

Other people here should know more than us.”

Dongfang Cheng dismounted and went into the crowd that was embroiled in heated discussion.

“Everyone, who knows the strength of this General?”

“You must be from out of town, right?

Not even knowing the great name of Liu Qiming.”

“He is the strongest Cavalry leader we have around here.

He once led a team by himself and wiped out a gang of fierce bandits on Earth Yellow Mountain, securing the peace of Tiannan City.”

“His strength is quite exceptional, he was even the Champion Warrior of Tiannan City.”

“With his status and strength, going out to welcome Nangong Qianying, that’s quite the honor for him.”

“That old man is over a hundred years old and he hasn’t died yet, which is quite rare.

Encountering such matters in his old age and not dying of rage is already a stroke of great fortune.”

“Ah, that fellow named Lu Chuan is going to be out of luck.

With Nangong Qianying coming out of retirement, everything will change, and he will seek revenge for the Nangong family!”

Dongfang Cheng stepped out of the crowd and returned to Lu Chuan’s side.

“These people don’t seem to know much about Nangong Qianying, but they know everything there is to know about this General.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Liu Qiming, still the Champion Warrior, is truly no ordinary person, indeed.

Cavalry is the strongest arm of the military, and he is the elite of the elite.

His strength must really be extraordinary.”

Dongfang Cheng put his hands behind his head, leaned against the wall and said, “The City Lord dispatching such an important person to welcome Nangong Qianying shows that his stance is not favoring us.”

“Who cares whom he favors?

After all, if we can kill Nangong Qianying, it wouldn’t be a bad thing for him.

There’s no need for him to stop us.”

Lu Chuan looked on as Liu Qiming led five hundred Cavalry out of Tiannan City, all the way to the city gates.

Lu Chuan reached the city gate where the crowd was sparse, greeted only by a few simple shops.

Once at the city gate, Lu Chuan mounted the Chief Caretaker of Nangong Residence’s head on a stick and planted it in the ground, waiting for Nangong Qianying’s arrival.

Time ticked away, minute by minute, as Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng waited near the entrance.

As the sun set and still no sign of Nangong Qianying appeared.

“Could that old man have decided not to come?”

Dongfang Cheng asked.

“Impossible, he seeks deep revenge for his family, it’s not possible that he wouldn’t come,”

Lu Chuan said.

Dongfang Cheng continued, “Then why hasn’t he returned yet?

Could he have encountered some accident outside?

That shouldn’t be, given his strength, there should be no accidents.”

Hsssh!!!

Suddenly, at the city gates, a horse charged in, crashing and bumping against the walls next to it, not stopping until it was bleeding from its head.

It finally collapsed on the ground.

Lu Chuan and Dongfang Cheng were both drawn over by the noise.

Lu Chuan hurried to the base of the wall and stood before the steed, scrutinizing it closely.

“Lu Chuan, this… this horse is no ordinary beast, the armor it’s draped in belongs to the Heavenly Might Tiger Head Army that just left the city!”

“Look closely, there are three deep gashes in the horse’s belly, you can see its intestines!”

Lu Chuan squatted before the horse, “I can see, no need to tell me.”

“This horse has sustained severe injuries, I’d reckon its master must be dead.”

Dongfang Cheng took a deep breath, “Dead?

How is that possible?

That’s the Heavenly Might Tiger Head Army, the strongest cavalry under the City Lord’s command!”

“Who would dare to lay hands on them?

Could it be Nangong Qianying?”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “It’s possible.”

“That’s impossible, right now, Nangong Qianying’s biggest enemy is you.

If he makes another enemy, wouldn’t he be courting death?”

Lu Chuan shook his head helplessly, “Indeed, it’s strange, but aside from Nangong Qianying, it seems unlikely to be anyone else.”

“Ugh… what are we supposed to do?

For the City Guards to be attacked here is truly rare!”

Lu Chuan stood up and looked at Dongfang Cheng, “These three slashes don’t look like they were made by a machete or a longsword, but by some kind of massive claw, striking down and tearing open the horse’s belly.”

“Clearly, our adversary is very formidable.”

“Having been in seclusion for so many years, now that Nangong Qianying has emerged, it’s hard to say what his actual strength is.”

“Can that old man be so terrifying?

Isn’t he practically of the age to be in the ground?

Logically, he shouldn’t be capable of such strength.”

Dongfang Cheng shook his head, still feeling there was a problem, “Has Nangong Qianying gone mad?

Doing this, wouldn’t he offend the City Lord?”

“Trouble follows trouble, can he withstand it?”

Lu Chuan turned to leave, “Let’s go, we’ll head back first, then plan accordingly.

This old man is probably not simple, and under normal circumstances, likely not easy to deal with.”

Lu Chuan turned and slowly left the place.

Dongfang Cheng looked down once more at the horse’s corpse, then shook his head helplessly and followed Lu Chuan away.

…

Not long after, at the city gate, a figure hurried in.

He was disheveled, his armor shattered into pieces, clothing torn, his body covered in cuts, bloodied and mangled.

Once inside the city, he collapsed to the ground, completely lifeless.

It took a few minutes before passersby, moved by curiosity, approached.

After a thorough inspection, his mouth fell open in shock, “You… you’re Liu Qiming!”

“General Liu, how did you end up in such a state?

What happened?

Who did this?”

Lying on the ground, Liu Qiming spoke weakly, “It’s… Nangong… Qianying, he has come…”

“He wanted to kill me, he wants to kill the City Lord, he wants to kill everyone, he’s no longer human, quickly inform the City Lord, there’s something wrong with this old man!”

“When I went there, without a word he attacked me, catching me off guard.

This guy, he’s definitely our enemy, we can’t let them into the city, or else the consequences are unimaginable!”

“Quick!

Pass this message to the City Lord, let him prepare immediately, we cannot allow that bastard into the city, if we do, the damage to us will be tremendous!”

Liu Qiming shouted with great difficulty, trying to make the passerby obey his command.
