Major Sects Besieged the Imperial City

A dazzling light burst out. In an instant, ten thousand swords shot out at the same time, filling the air with sharp sword energy and charging at the rebel army with a destructive force.

With Mount Sword as the center, a huge ripple spread out quickly, so fast that no one could react.

Humans had an instinct to sense danger. Looking at the white fog in front of them, even if they did not know what was happening, they could tell it was dangerous.

“Retreat! There’s something strange here.”

The leading general roared, but it was too late.

“Swish!”

The sound of sharp weapons piercing through the air could be heard. In the next second, the general widened his eyes as he looked down at the huge bloody hole in his chest that was pierced through by the sword energy.

He fell to the ground, and at the same time, a large number of the troops fell with him.

When the rebels behind saw the bloody scene, they were immediately shocked and did not dare to move forward.

Emperor Sheng Yuan and her army were safe and sound on Mount Sword, and they immediately burst out cheering..

“That’s great. With this array formation, we will definitely be able to last until the reinforcements arrive.”

However, after defeating this battalion of enemy troops, Emperor Sheng Yuan didn’t seem to be relieved. Instead, her expression was more solemn.

“Do you think this arry formation can stop these rebels from marching forward? Before they take action, they definitely have thought about all the possibilities.”

Emperor Sheng Yuan could not help but sigh with a heavy mood. The battle ahead would probably be even more difficult.

Hearing Emperor Sheng Yuan’s words, everyone’s joyful smile froze.

That’s right. They could defeat this legion, but what about the next one? The rebels were a stupid bunch. They would definitely come up with a solution.

Soon, the news of what happened on Mount Sword reached the ears of King Zhao and the others.

“Your Highness, Emperor Sheng Yuan and his army retreated to Mount Sword and used the array formation set up by the Sword God to defeat one of our battalions.”

King Zhao and the others’ expressions changed drastically. “I didn’t expect the Sword God to have a backup plan.” As if having thought of something, he snorted. “So what? Does he really think a mere array formation can stop us?”

Since they decided to rebel, they must have taken all things into consideration. Ordinary troops were naturally helpless against an array formation, but what about Martial Artists?

He turned his gaze towards Zhou Hao. “Sect Master Zhou, then I’ll leave the rest to you.”

When Zhou Hao heard that, he immediately revealed a smug smile. “I’ve already contacted a few old friends of mine who are willing to help you overthrow the emperor.”

Soon, Zhou Hao began to gather large sects in the Martial World.

On the surface, the Martial World and the Imperial Court minded their own business and never had anything to do with each other, but in fact, underneath the calm surface, it was not peaceful at all. After all, how could this group of Martial Artists with extraordinary ability be willing to let someone who was far inferior to them in terms of cultivation be their emperor?

At the same time, the imperial court was also quite troubled by these people from the Martial World. They were a rebellious bunch and hard to govern.

Previously, with the Sword God guarding the Imperial City, these people were well-behaved. Now that they knew that the Sword God had gone to the Northern Border, they started to have evil designs.

Although some neutral sects or sects that did not like to get involved in secular affairs rejected Zhou Hao’s invitation, some sects chose to participate. After all, should this rebellion succeed, they would benefit tremendously.

At Lightning Mountain Villa.

“That’s great. If the Sword God is really dispatched to the Northern Border, it will be our best chance to participate. If King Zhao succeeds, we will be the founding sect. You can imagine the honor.”

“If the Sword God settles the score after he returns, I’m afraid we…”

“So what? The Sword God can’t change the situation alone.”

The Heavenly Dipper Sect.

“Disciples, listen up. Follow me to the Imperial City to join the great cause!”

“A brand new dynasty will be established with our help. For our Heavenly Dipper Sect, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. We have to seize it well.”

“King Zhao has already promised that if we make a great contribution, he will give us great power.”

Firmament Sect.

“The Heavenly Saint Dynasty is at a disadvantage and is surrounded by King Zhao and his army. If the reinforcements don’t arrive, it’ll be just a matter of time before the imperial guards are all eliminated. The Sword God can’t return either. It seems like King Zhao is even favored by the heavens.”

“A wise man submits to circumstances. Now that King Zhao has made the invitation for us to join the great cause, if we can contribute to it, we will bring endless glory to our sect.”

Faced with the generous offer by the rebels, even these unworldly martial artists could not help but be tempted. The Blood Sword Pavilion, the Golden Yang Sect, and a few other large sects quickly gathered near Mount Sword.

Every sect in the martial world all had their own martial artists, martial masters, and senior martial masters. Now that the Sword God was not present and the other reinforcements could not arrive in time, the Imperial City was like a lone island with no chance of winning.

With Zhou Hao as the leader, the second legion could be said to be a martial artist army. Be it cultivation level or overall quality, it was not something the first legion could compare to.

“Everyone, listen to my orders. We’ll attack the array formation together and break it jointly.”

With Zhou Hao’s order, countless energies spread out from their bodies and charged at the array formation.

“Boom!”

The loud bang that shook the mountain attracted the attention of Emperor Sheng Yuan and the others.

“Your Majesty! Now, the rebels are actually colluding with martial artists. There is a legion of martial artists outside, and they are attacking us.”

Emperor Sheng Yuan was pale on the face. Apparently, the rebels weren’t going to give her even the time to breathe.

Even the array formation set up by the Sword God could not stop so many people.
