Chapter 403 - 173: Gaining Immortal Fate
"Capture the assassin!"
Ziwei Mountain.
At the mountain gate.
Chen Sansi, responsible for patrolling the perimeter, suddenly heard shouts everywhere.
"Capture the assassin!"
"Rustle rustle——"
"Bang!"
He saw a figure drop from the sky.
"General Meng?"
Chen Sansi feigned confusion and asked, "What happened?"
"There are assassins, and not just a few!"
Meng Quji spoke with a grave expression, "I will chase ahead; General Chen, take your men and cut through the shortcut, you must intercept them on the official road twenty miles out!"
"Alright."
Chen Sansi agreed, "Xuanjia Army,
"You dare rebel?!"
"Who is the mastermind behind you?!"
"..."
No answer came.
The deputy commander of the Imperial Guards, General Wei Chi Lingjie, shouted angrily, "Bring men, take them down!"
"General!"
"This is bad..."
During the conversation,
Subordinates came running in a flustered manner to report.
"The Eastern Garrison!"
"The Eastern Garrison has rebelled!"
"..."
"What did you say?"
General Wei Chi Lingjie's eyes widened like bronze bells, "Rebelled?! How many men?!"
"Don't know..."
"It's too dark to see clearly!"
"People from all sides!"
"..."
"Report—"
"General!"
"I have news! There are eight thousand men!"
"Meng Quji, two hours ago, had dispatched twelve thousand men, and then the remaining eight thousand men headed straight for Ziwei Palace!"
"..."
"Meng Quji?!"
General Wei Chi cursed loudly, "That tortoise of a general, how dare he!"
"When Meng acts, he is cautious yet decisive in critical times!"
Meng Quji, holding a spear quietly appeared, "Take them all down!"
The entire Ziwei Palace.
There were only three thousand Imperial Guards, and they were scattered at the four palace gates.
They were swiftly encircled by their assailants.
"Make way for us!"
Meng Quji's resounding voice echoed throughout Ziwei Palace, "We are all brothers. I, Meng, do not wish to harm anyone's life. As long as you don't resist, everything will be back to normal after dawn!"
"Meng Quji!"
General Wei Chi pointed his Double Maces at him, spitting curses, "Do you realize what you are doing?"
"Merely rebelling."
Meng Quji said calmly, "General Wei Chi, surrender!"
"Go to hell!"
General Wei Chi swung his arms, "Brothers, to arms! Kill for me!"
The melee began.
"Stop, stop it!"
In the dark of the night,
A figure in a red robe hurriedly approached.
Yan Maoxing, who lived at the foot of the mountain, somehow received the news and arrived in time.
