Chapter 416: Chapter 404 The Power of One Sword_2

Bang.

Long Chen slapped Xie Sanqian away with a single palm.

"Do you think you can threaten me?"

Long Chen sneered.

Xie Sanqian, struck by the blow, spat out a mouthful of blood, and after regaining his senses, shouted furiously, "Three thousand soldiers, heed my command, storm into the Great Xia Mansion, seek out spies from foreign countries. Those who dare block the way, kill without mercy."

"Yes."

The thunderous roar sounded like thunder on a plain.

Immediately after, three thousand soldiers charged towards the Great Xia Mansion.

A flash of light appeared in Long Chen’s hand, and the Dragon God Sword materialized in his grip.

Seeing thousands rushing towards him, Long Chen was not at all flustered as he concentrated on gathering his sword power.

At a certain moment, Long Chen finally made his move.

"Kill."

Long Chen struck with his sword.

Boom.

The violent sword energy surged out like an overwhelming sea.

The sword energy filled the sky and instantly enveloped thousands.

As the sword energy descended, screams filled the air, blood splattered, and the world seemed to turn red.

In just a few seconds, all three thousand city-guarding soldiers were killed, not a single one survived.

And those disguised as soldiers from the Bodhi Sword Sect, except for Zhou Zitong, also perished under Long Chen’s sword.

A single sword strike that killed thousands—the scene frightened Xie Sanqian to the extent that he trembled and wet himself.

Zhou Zitong also turned pale and frantic.

"Oh, it turns out some experts were hidden among them."

Long Chen slowly walked towards Xie Sanqian and Zhou Zitong.

Thud.

Unable to withstand the immense psychological pressure, Xie Sanqian knelt in front of Long Chen, "Lord Long, I was forced too, please spare my life."

Bang.

As soon as Xie Sanqian finished speaking, his body exploded into a mist of blood.

Such trash, Long Chen didn’t want to waste another word on.

"Who are you?"

Long Chen’s gaze fell upon Zhou Zitong.

Zhou Zitong took a deep breath then said solemnly, "I am Zhou Zitong, Sect Master of the Bodhi Sword Sect."

"Zhou Zitong, stab yourself with your sword, and I will let you leave."

Long Chen said indifferently.

"A joke." Zhou Zitong scoffed, "When the Bodhi Sword Sect was established, you were not even born yet."

"The reason I suggest this is to hope that you can go back and inform Dongfang Wuxin to personally come here and settle this matter once and for all. Of course, it would also allow you to live a few more days. Don’t be ungrateful."

Long Chen’s expression remained calm.

Hearing this, Zhou Zitong became infuriated, his face turning red, "I, Zhou Zitong, have been in the field for a hundred years and have never encountered such a conceited madman like you. If you can kill me today, do it. If you can’t kill me, then I will be the one to send you on your way."

"If you won’t drink a toast, you must drink a penalty, let me fulfill you."

Long Chen, holding his sword, charged at Zhou Zitong like a streak of light.

His form flashed past.

As Zhou Zitong raised his sword, his head flew into the air.

Bang.

When the head hit the ground, his headless body finally collapsed, blood splattering everywhere.

Thus, none of the thousands who came survived.

Long Chen turned and walked into the Great Xia Mansion, closing the large doors of the mansion.

Xia Ling and others approached Long Chen upon his return.

"How is it? Are they all gone?"

Xia Ling asked.

"Yes, a few thousand came and all are gone," Long Chen replied with a smile.

"A few thousand, how did you make them leave?" Xia Ling curiously asked.

"Simple, all sent on the road to Yellow Springs."

Long Chen said.

Hiss.

Xia Ling and the others gasped.

"Husband, are you serious?"

Zhao Churan asked.

"Check the external surveillance yourself," Long Chen offered, without further explanation.

Without hesitation, Xia Ling and the others immediately headed to the surveillance room.

When they saw the footage of Long Chen exterminating thousands with a single sword strike, the surveillance room fell into a deathly silence.

After a long while, Zhao Churan let out a shriek, "Ah, does that mean there are thousands of corpses outside now?"

"Should we go clean them up?"

"Is what I saw real? Isn’t this just like a movie?" Han Yun was dumbfounded.

She had never imagined, Long Chen’s combat strength to be so astonishing.

This spectacle couldn’t simply be described as a skill of a martial arts expert.

A single sword slaying thousands, that is a divine technique, transcending the mundane world.

"Han Yun, after you leave here, you can’t tell anyone about this," Xia Ling turned to Han Yun with utmost seriousness.

Han Yun hastily nodded, "Don’t worry, I wouldn’t dare speak of it even if it killed me."

"That’s good."

After a moment of contemplation, Xia Ling said gravely, "Husband didn’t ask us to deal with the corpses, it means he is using them as bait to lure out the mastermind behind all this, to completely solve this issue once and for all. So we don’t need to do anything, we just support whatever husband decides."

"Wait." Han Yun said tremblingly, "I’m feeling very confused right now, the City Lord was killed, won’t Great Xia hold Long Chen accountable?"

"The Great Xia Mansion was personally authorized by Ancestor Xia, nobody has the right to investigate it. The City Lord brought thousands to inspect and created such commotion, being killed by Long Chen, even if concerned parties complain to Ancestor Xia, they won’t be able to do anything to Long Chen, don’t worry."

Xia Ling said.

"Okay...okay."

Han Yun nodded somewhat dazedly.

Everything that had happened far exceeded her understanding.

She glanced at Xia Ling and the others, finally realizing why these unparalleled beauties all willingly followed Long Chen, even if he was fickle, they never left him.

That magnificent sword strike made her deeply infatuated too.

Even though she was scared and a bit frightened, she still couldn’t help but be captivated by that peerless elegance of the sword strike.

...

Half an hour later, the situation outside the Great Xia Mansion was known to Dongfang Wuxin.
