The Lord's Empire (Part 1)

Chapter 151-156

Chapter 151: Massacre

Many people were displeased that the city gates were suddenly being closed because some of them had wanted to go out to hunt to earn some money, while others wanted to come in to sell the things that they had found outside.

Even though there were not many player factions in Heavenstone City, there was still a considerable number of players in the city. Moreover, it was not only the players, but also the indigenous residents who were inconvenienced by the sudden order to close the city gates, so many operations stopped as a result.

The city gates closed quite suddenly and without any warning, so there were many people standing on either side of the city gates who looked incredibly displeased and were yelling for the city gates to be opened.

The city guards coldly harrumphed – they had received an order to not let anyone in or out at any cost, so they loudly replied, “The city gates will remain shut! Anyone who tries to get in or out will die!”

Those words were filled with killing intent, causing countless people to retreat. Even though they were incredibly displeased, their lives were more important than whatever business they had.

At the same time, they were quite confused – what had happened in Heavenstone City for them to suddenly close the city gates? It was the first time that this had happened.

The many people standing around the city gates retreated, and the city guards pushed the 10 meter or so tall large gates, which were made from Silver grade material, until they were almost closed.

Hiding within the crowd, Zhao Fu knew that if he did not act soon, he would lose his opportunity. He circulated his King’s Power, and a large amount of the black King’s Power streamed out from Zhao Fu, dispersing around him like fog.

Clang!Zhao Fu drew the Sky Demon Sword and raised it high into the air, instilling it with his King’s Power.

Feeling Zhao Fu’s power, the Sky Demon sleeping within the sword suddenly opened its cold, blood-red eyes. Large amounts of Sky Demon Qi streamed out from the sword, and as the Sky Demon Sword gave off a demonic gleam, Zhao Fu yelled, “Sky Demon Slash!”

BOOM!!

An explosion sounded out as Zhao Fu slashed downwards with the sword, and a demonic howl seemed to roar out. The air seemed to be cleaved in half as a massive black sword light flew out.

The 10 or so city guards closing the gates and the 20 or so city guards standing by were all hit by the sword light without being given a chance to even defend themselves. The terrifying sword light seemed to devour their bodies, and after it passed through them, the ground became dyed with blood, and countless broken corpses lay on the ground. The pungent smell of blood and guts started to fill the air.

At the same time, a 20-meter long gash appeared on the ground, and traces of demonic qi floated up from it.

These sudden changes shocked all of the people around Zhao Fu, and they all looked at the black-cloaked figure in front of them, who seemed like a demon god.

As everyone stared in shock, Zhao Fu’s body blurred and shot towards the city gates like a black ray of light, and soon, he was about to rush out.

Suddenly, a powerful body jumped down from 10 or so meters above and blocked off Zhao Fu’s path. It was a General Guard, and his cultivation was above Stage 2.

“Piss off!” Zhao Fu yelled coldly and swept out with his sword, and the Sky Demon Sword, filled with killing intent, slashed towards the General Guard.

This strike was ferocious to the extreme, and the General Guard immediately used his large saber to parry Zhao Fu’s attack; however, he had underestimated Zhao Fu.
