King of Creation-Chapter 65 - The Bloody Path Out of the City

In his attacks, he showed no mercy.

Whether it was a True Essence Sword Finger or a distant strike with Five Mountains Divine Fist, each move was lethal.

Most of the Lishui Sect disciples serving as the County City Patrol Officers were at the Fourth or Fifth Stage of Blood Training, with the occasional existence of a True Essence First Stage; none were a match for Ye Zhen.

Continuing the fight, his horse never stopped!

After a hundred breaths, Ye Zhen finally saw the ten zhang high North Gate of Yinshan County.

With a rumbling sound, the one-foot-thick North City Gate of Yinshan County slowly closed the last gap, and at that moment, Ye Zhen was still three hundred steps away from the North Gate.

“Hahahaha, Ye Zhen, the city gate is closed, and you can’t escape.

Just come down from your horse and accept your death obediently!” Wang Yunbao’s voice appeared on top of the North Gate Tower, and a large number of Lishui Sect disciples appeared simultaneously.

The most threatening were the two hundred soldiers who had already gathered on the North Gate Tower.

Because Yinshan County was a border city, nearly a thousand soldiers of the border army patrolled the city walls even during the day.

Ye Zhen had no intention of stopping, continuing to charge towards the gate on his horse.

“Shoot, shoot him for me!

This brat has taken Miss Meng hostage, use the Killer Crossbow and shoot this thief!” Wang Yunbao, hastily bandaged, watched Ye Zhen with hateful eyes.

Ye Zhen was the one who had crippled his arm.

Swish!

Among the two hundred soldiers, a hundred archers simultaneously readied their Killer Crossbows, strung them, and aimed precisely at Ye Zhen atop the horse.

The moment he was targeted by the hundred Killer Crossbows, the hair on Ye Zhen’s body stood on end.

Without a second thought, he lifted the unconscious Meng Xiaoyue in his arms up high with one hand.

“Meng Xiaoyue is here, shoot me if you dare,” Ye Zhen thought.

Since you, Wang Yunbao, have framed me for kidnapping Miss Meng, I would be wasting the opportunity not to use it to my advantage.

Using Meng Xiaoyue as a human shield was a well-considered decision by Ye Zhen.

Firstly, the border army’s respect for Meng Chuan was beyond doubt; even if some generals were bribed by the Lishui Sect, they could not shift the people’s will.

The soldiers would surely hesitate to act rashly.

Moreover, judging by the current situation, the Lishui Sect highly valued Meng Xiaoyue and definitely did not want to see her dead.

Indeed, seeing Meng Xiaoyue being used as a shield by Ye Zhen, Wang Yunbao was dumbfounded on the spot.

Wasn’t Ye Zhen here to save Meng Xiaoyue?

“Stop, stop, don’t shoot, don’t shoot.

We absolutely can’t hurt Miss Meng!”

The next moment, Wang Yunbao was shouting hoarsely, even personally knocking down several Killer Crossbows, and the soldiers, upon seeing Meng Xiaoyue, also did not dare to trigger the devices.

Not to mention their admiration for Meng Chuan, but in this public situation, whoever killed Meng Xiaoyue would become the sinner of the entire Yinshan County.

“I gambled right!”

Seeing the Killer Crossbows on the city head being withdrawn, Ye Zhen’s anxious heart eased a little, and his mind began to race—how could he leave the city with the gates closed now?

Go!

Spurring his horse, which was already near the wall, Ye Zhen turned and charged straight up the ramp built into the city wall.

For convenience in transporting materials and communicating orders, the border army had constructed a ramp about three meters wide on the city wall.

“Go, go up and block him, you must stop him!” Watching Ye Zhen rush up the ramp, Wang Yunbao panicked.

As Ye Zhen, riding his Silver-horned Horse, had just reached halfway up the ramp, dozens of Lishui Sect disciples and nearly two hundred soldiers surrounded him in droves.

Quickly binding the unconscious Meng Xiaoyue to his back, Ye Zhen dismounted the Silver-horned Horse.

The instant his body was enveloped with the Protective Gang Qi, both his hands surged forth with a three-foot-long True Essence Sword Finger.

“Ah…out of my way, anyone who blocks me will die!”

Roaring, Ye Zhen charged like a rage-filled lion from beneath, heading straight for the dozens of Lishui Sect disciples and two hundred border soldiers.

Protected by the Gang Qi and wearing the Illusion Serpent King armor, Ye Zhen almost completely ignored the attacks that landed on his body, except for those targeting his vital head area.

Yet, often as soon as the Lishui Sect disciples’ attacks connected with Ye Zhen’s body, their bodies were already severed into pieces, heads flying off as the True Essence Sword Finger swept past them.

The True Essence Sword Finger, wherever it passed, split everything in twain.

In the blink of an eye, dozens of Lishui Sect Disciples besieging Ye Zhen were slaughtered to the last, with only a few left, who were intimidated by the ferocious Ye Zhen into halting their advance.

“Phew, step aside, I don’t want to kill you!” Faced with the oppressive encroachment of two hundred Border Army soldiers, Ye Zhen’s forward charge abruptly halted as he adjusted his breathing and calculated the remaining True Essence Power within him.

Sword Technique!

If he had mastered a set of sword technique, then using True Essence Sword Finger combined with that sword technique, Ye Zhen’s slaughter of those Lishui Sect Disciples would have taken even less time, with minimal exertion.

Ye Zhen felt that not cultivating a set of sword technique back in the Sect was a huge mistake!

“Spear formation, attack!”

Under the command of a Centurion, two hundred fearless Border Army soldiers roared in unison with a terrifying battle cry, and with a thrust of their long spears, two hundred blades were aimed straight at Ye Zhen.

Ye Zhen closed his eyes in anguish; if he had a choice, he really did not wish to kill these Border Army soldiers who were unaware of the truth.

The next instant, Ye Zhen, with his eyes closed, crouched and sprung, shooting towards the direction of the tower.

As he sprung, he launched another three-foot-long True Essence Sword Finger from his right index finger.

Whoosh!

Ye Zhen’s figure was like a bolt as he passed through, except for the central column of soldiers he sent flying, the True Essence Sword Finger in Ye Zhen’s hands blazed like lightning, flashing through the Border Army’s formation.

With two uses of Snake Bounce Grass, Ye Zhen made it through the cohort of two hundred men, leaving the ranks of soldiers on either side impeccably neat, but the soldiers who were alive just a moment ago now lay silent.

Hissss!

The Silver-horned Horse, which had been following Ye Zhen from a distance, snorted, kicking up an extremely subtle breeze.

In an instant, there was a continuous cacophony of snapping sounds.

It was as though everything had shattered in a single moment.

The weapons, armor, and bodies of the two hundred Border Army soldiers manifested fine cracks all at once, with blood and innards starting to spray forth.

In a flash, the North Tower was awash with blood!

Wang Yunbao was stunned!

Profoundly shocked.

He had thought that several dozen elite disciples from the Lishui Sect, along with two hundred elite soldiers, would be enough.

Even if they held back for fear of damaging valuable assets and could not kill Ye Zhen, they could still delay him for a while.

By the time five thousand Border Army soldiers mounted the walls, there would be no issue.

By then, not even if Ye Zhen had wings would he be able to escape.

But!

Hundred Breaths!

This force couldn’t even hold Ye Zhen back for a hundred breaths.

Ye Zhen wiped the hot blood from the Border Army off his face, rage exploded in his chest, “Wang Yunbao, you won’t die a good death!”

With an unrelenting gaze, Ye Zhen charged viciously towards Wang Yunbao.

Yet Wang Yunbao was panicked.

Already severely injured, he had merely hoped to make a great contribution to his sect by stopping Ye Zhen with numbers.

But to his disbelief, his support vanished in an instant.

“Don’t come any closer, don’t come!” The blood-soaked Ye Zhen, in the eyes of the now disheartened Wang Yunbao, resembled a Killing God.

As Ye Zhen drew unbearably close, Wang Yunbao let out a hysterical roar.

His leg moved in a blur as he launched a Blazing Fire Ghost Leg, kicking towards Ye Zhen like a whirlwind.

“Not enough strength, too slow, unstable stance, riddled with flaws!”

Due to the sudden loss of his right arm, Wang Yunbao’s Body Skill was noticeably off-balance, and in his state of panic, his move lacked any real force.

Compared to the Blazing Fire Ghost Leg he had demonstrated in the Meng Family residence before, it was vastly inferior, full of openings.

Bang!

A Thunder Leopard Crashing Fist, exploiting the gaps in the leg technique, ferociously struck Wang Yunbao’s abdomen.

As blood and organ chunks spewed wildly, he was left lifeless on the spot.

Eying the nearly ten-meter-tall North Gate Tower, Ye Zhen quickly formulated a plan.

Leading the frightened Silver-horned Horse over, Ye Zhen remounted, throwing even the corpse of Wang Yunbao onto the horse’s back.

Backing up slightly, Ye Zhen fiercely whipped the Silver-horned Horse, galloping wildly on the wall until reaching the parapet.

With a sharp pull on the reins and a thrust of force, he veered the Silver-horned Horse aside.

With a long whinny, the Silver-horned Horse leaped down from the ten-meter-high wall.

Almost as soon as the Silver-horned Horse leaped off, Ye Zhen threw the body of Wang Yunbao downward and leaped from the horse’s back as well.

Ye Zhen’s foot fiercely stamped on the corpse of Wang Yunbao for leverage, allowing him to land safely.

As he touched the ground, his figure shot up again, his palms gently pushing against the horse’s belly to ease the impact.

Simultaneously, Ye Zhen and the Silver-horned Horse tumbled to the ground.

A few breaths later, Ye Zhen straddled the recovering Silver-horned Horse and sprinted off into the distance.

Just at that moment, amidst the thunderous and orderly sound of footsteps, five thousand Border Army soldiers clad in full dark armor surged onto the walls of Yinshan County.
