Chapter 1356: Chapter 1356: Single Combat with Martial God
Linbei City’s military strength is not too strong, after all, with War God Chaitof living here for a long time, Linbei City does not need, nor is it convenient to have a strong military presence.
Even though Chaitof does not pledge allegiance to the Bei Luo Royal Family, he is still a Bei Luo Person and has indeed been guarding the peace of Linbei City over the years.
This time with the murder of the Duke of Night Raven in his estate, Chaitof drew his sword to cut down the Demonic Path, and people from Linbei City also came here to inquire.
Chaitof’s indifferent attitude made the Lord of Linbei City feel that something was not quite right.
After several days of fruitless searching in the city, it was only natural for the guards to be deployed near this cabin.
"Give yourself up, killing a Duke of Bei Luo Country, no matter what your reasons, you must first give an explanation."
You Ming glanced at the surrounding Bei Luo soldiers, their brows slightly furrowed. The strength of these people was not very strong, their main purpose for gathering here was mostly to completely seal off the area.
However, You Ming could sense that the strength of the person in front of him, the Lord of Linbei City, was genuinely that of a War Emperor, and You Ming alone indeed had no assurance of defeating his opponent, and so he sent a message to Mo Ningchen.
As a War Emperor, as long as three of them were together, even if they completely fell out, You Ming was confident of escaping unharmed.
"Lord of Herman City, the death of the Duke of Night Raven has nothing to do with us, you must have noticed this point, right?"
You Ming spoke to the Lord of Linbei City, for her, stalling for time was the most crucial thing right now.
"Whether it has anything to do with you or not is not for you alone to decide. The commotion on the day of the Duke’s death was caused by you three. Although the Duke did not die on the spot, you three definitely cannot disassociate yourselves from it."
The Lord of Linbei City showed no intent of retreating, his gaze fixed on You Ming, hostility clearly visible.
Seeing the other’s attitude and sensing something off, You Ming coldly said: "Lord Herman, you wouldn’t happen to be associated with the Demonic Path, would you?"
Upon hearing this statement, a stream of filthy Bei Luo curses immediately flowed from Herman’s mouth, then he spoke excitedly: "Linbei City has never had any incidents involving the Demonic Path, ever since you few Xia Citizens arrived, the Demonic Path has shown up, it must be you who are closely associated with the Demonic Path!"
Outside Xia Country, the Demonic Path is also referred to by another name.
The Demon Clan or heretics.
Throughout history, the hatred for heretics has been profound.
Behind many great wars, there have been shadows of heretics, and many places hate the heretics even more vehemently than Xia Country, with Bei Luo Empire being one of them.
Even so, You Ming sensed something amiss from Herman’s excited reaction.
Calling a handsome person ugly often only makes them laugh it off.
Easily being provoked by words often means touching someone’s sore spot.
"I know you are waiting for your companions to arrive, but I advise you to surrender willingly and come with us. If it truly has nothing to do with you, the Empire will surely clear your names..."
"When Lord Herman directly issued the warrant for our arrest, did you ever consider that we might be innocent?"
Mo Ningchen’s words suddenly rang out, and the military of Linbei City immediately focused their attention on the two who had suddenly appeared, very tense.
Herman, looking at the three people who had arrived, chuckled: "All of you are finally together, it wasn’t a waste of my time gabbing with this foul woman."
"What did you say?"
You Ming’s brows furrowed, and the Crimson Long Sword instantly appeared in her hand, ready to strike.
Su Chengyu quickly stepped forward to intercept her, then looked at Herman saying, "Lord Herman, are you intending to completely fall out with the Bei Tang Family?"
The warrant from Linbei City for the three listed their fake identities but, having personally issued the warrant, Herman clearly knew their backgrounds.
Herman hummed lightly: "Don’t think you can press me with the Bei Tang Family. I know your Bei Tang Family has an Earth Immortal, but this is the Bei Luo Empire, and for the crime you’ve committed, not to mention arresting you, even if it’s execution first and reporting later, can your Bei Tang Family create an uproar up to a thousand roofs high?"
"Night Raven’s death has nothing to do with us!"
You Ming suppressed his anger and spoke again.
Lord of Herman City sneered, "As long as you are dead, I can say it has everything to do with you."
The inexplicable hostility made the trio feel that something was off—even if the Duke of Night Raven was dead, this Lord of Linbei City seeking someone to take the blame was a bit too harsh towards them.
After all, they were from the Bei Tang Family. Such framing would surely not come without a significant price, yet it seemed like the City Lord did not care at all.
"With such actions, aren’t you afraid that the authorities in Thousand Helm City will find out?"
Su Chengyu finally asked, struggling to maintain his composure.
However, facing Su Chengyu’s words, Lord Herman did not take it to heart at all: "I know you three are big shots from elsewhere. If I had a choice, I wouldn’t want to mess with you three. Unfortunately, someone wants you dead here in Linbei City."
"With just you and these good-for-nothings?"
Su Chengyu retorted.
"Let’s see how long you can remain confident! Attack!"
Lord Herman had naturally collected intelligence about the trio’s strength beforehand. There were almost no eyewitnesses to the manor battle, but both Su Chengyu and Mo Ningchen had records of taking action in Linbei City, and You Ming, not his first time here, had even more information available.
Prior to this, Lord Herman knew that none of the three were in the same realm as him, and to be cautious, he was even confident that he could handle the three of them alone.
However, to be on the safe side, Lord Herman had specifically called for three skilled fighters from the military, all ranked as Diamond Fighters.
In his view, even if the trio had the ability to fight across realms, they could not possibly win against the numerous men on his side.
Watching the soldiers of Linbei City charging towards him, Su Chengyu turned and immediately said, "I’ll take on Herman."
Mo Ningchen, hearing Su Chengyu’s voluntary request, didn’t say much, just cautioned, "Leave one alive."
"I understand."
The moment Su Chengyu’s words fell, his figure had already vanished from the spot, charging towards Herman.
His proactivity in attacking Herman was firstly to prevent Herman, the City Lord, from also being a member of the Demonic Path, as among the three, he had the greatest resistance to Demonic Qi.
Secondly, he also wanted to test it out—now that he was at the Fifth Layer of the Nascent Soul Realm, facing a War Emperor alone, what the situation would be like.
Seeing Su Chengyu’s figure disappearing from the spot, Herman instantly lost track of Su Chengyu’s presence.
Having come from a Fighter background and having ventured into the Dark Sea, his perception of presence was superior to that of an ordinary War Emperor.
However, even so, the moment Su Chengyu disappeared, he also instantly lost his sense of Su Chengyu.
And the next second, when he sensed Su Chengyu’s location, Su Chengyu had already appeared behind him.
Herman turned in shock, his weapon styled like a Nepalese Army Knife slashed back with full force.
However, as the blade fell, it was directly caught between Su Chengyu’s fingers.
At that moment, Herman clearly saw the undeniable disappointment in Su Chengyu’s eyes, and Su Chengyu’s voice simultaneously reached his ears.
"With this level of skill, you think you can stop the three of us? Isn’t your self-assessment of your strength a bit too exaggerated?"
The moment the cold words fell, Su Chengyu forcefully broke the Magic Artifact of fine Spiritual Energy level, in his fingers!
Herman’s pupils constricted, never expecting that his weapon would be so easily broken by the opponent.
Born from the battlefield, Herman knew well that on the battlefield, a broken blade often meant a fallen man!
