Chapter 12: Toughness

However, it is not easy to make a marquis, the cultivation of the Seven Star Realm of the prince alone is enough to make countless people despair.

It is difficult to practice martial arts to ascend to the blue sky, not to mention that even if a strong person in the Seven Star Realm does not have enough merit to add to his body, it is impossible to be crowned.

is like the head of Wei, who is superbly cultivated and comparable to princes, but his early years were not enough to make him a marquis, and in the end he could only be put into the command of the Seven Princes, which can be regarded as flying on the branches and becoming a phoenix, relying on the power of the Seven Princes, ordinary princes also have to look at him differently.

"Unlike in the army, it is much easier to become a marquis after entering the Zhenshen Division, but the Zhenshen Division attaches more importance to cultivation, in addition to arresting the disciples of the sect, my focus should be on martial arts cultivation. ”

Thinking of this, Wang Hao flipped through the sword book in his mind again and left everything behind.

Time gradually passed, and just after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Wang Hao set off for the south.

Huxia County is located in the south, quite far away from Shangjing, and this county is adjacent to the southern Xinjiang, mixed with fish and dragons, originally there were a large number of sects entrenched, but with the promulgation of the ban on martial arts, most of these sects chose to temporarily avoid the edge of the Heavenly Empire, and chose to hide in the southern Xinjiang, otherwise Wang Hao would not dare to set foot in Huxia County easily.

"I have already collected information in advance, and the most rampant sect power in Huxia County is in Shicheng, so I will go directly to this place. ”

Wang Hao already had a plan, and after identifying the direction, he immediately hurried non-stop, and he would not stop at all unless the dry food was exhausted along the way.

Two months later, one man and one rider finally arrived at Stone City.

A hundred miles south of this city is the southern frontier, and unlike other places, Shicheng is quite barren, far less rich than other cities in Huxia County.

After the promulgation of the ban on martial arts, the Celestial Empire army tried to kill all the sect disciples in Shicheng many times, but with little success, after all, Shicheng was the station of many sects at the beginning, and its power was deep-rooted, and it was almost impossible to clear it in a short time.

"The rampant sect is indeed a stubborn disease, the legal system cannot be communicated, many policies are difficult to implement, the people of Shicheng live in poverty, but it is not without benefits, at least the folk customs here are relatively strong, and almost everyone practices martial arts. ”

Wang Hao dismounted, and there was already a group of people waiting in front of him.

"Dare to ask if it's Wang Hao, the inspector?"

The first person wore an official uniform, and he was about forty years old, and he was the commander of Shicheng County.

Wang Hao did not hide his whereabouts during this trip, and even passed on the news, these people learned of his whereabouts in advance, so they waited here early.

"I have received a secret report that Shicheng County ordered Li Feng to defect to the sect and kill without mercy!"

Suddenly, Wang Hao let out a long roar, and then a sword light rushed into the sky, like the Milky Way hanging upside down, and smashed down.

Only a boom was heard, and a sword mark nearly ten meters long appeared at Li Feng's location, and he himself had already turned into blood and mud.

Li Feng was also a Liangyi Realm powerhouse, but unfortunately he didn't expect Wang Hao to suddenly attack, and he didn't have time to react at all, so he was directly killed.

Of course, the main reason is that Wang Hao has cultivated the Fixing Light Splitting Sword to perfection, and his combat power has skyrocketed, and he is already capable of killing the powerhouses of the Liangyi Realm.

The blow stunned everyone, they could never have imagined such a change.

"Great, spare your life!"

Everyone knelt on the ground, and they didn't dare to breathe.

They are all gentry from Shicheng Township, pampered on weekdays, where have they seen such a bloody scene, they have long been frightened.

"Where is the Wen Hong Protector?"

Wang Hao didn't look at any of these people, and looked directly at a few soldiers in the distance.

"Back to the patrol envoy, Lord Protector was severely injured in the battle with the strong man of the sect not long ago, and he is still recuperating from his injuries. ”

The captain of the soldiers opened his mouth in response, his tone very respectful.

"I see, you go back and tell him that I am waiting for him at the county office. ”

Wang Hao nodded, and directly crossed the crowd into the stone city, and the captain immediately set off to the Protector's Mansion.

Shicheng is not big, and it didn't take long for Wang Hao to arrive outside the county office, and no one dared to stop him after he revealed his identity.

And the captain also rushed to the Protector's Mansion at this time.

"You said that the patrol envoy killed Li Feng directly?"

In the hall, as Commander Wu reported in detail the scene that happened outside Shicheng, Wen Hong's brows began to wrinkle slightly.

Unlike Li Feng, Wen Hong is dressed in armor, burly, and exudes a strong military atmosphere, which makes people feel afraid from a distance.

"Well, the inspector came up and said that Li Feng had taken refuge in the sect, but he had just arrived in Shicheng, where did he get the evidence. ”

Wu Chang was very puzzled, Wen Hong had been investigating Li Feng through various means over the years, but he had no gain at all, and under Li Feng's suppression, he was even about to be unable to protect himself.

"Do you think he needs proof? Go down and let everyone be careful. ”

Wen Hong smiled noncommittally.

After the Wu Commander left, the smile on Wen Hong's face immediately retracted.

"The means are really powerful, worthy of the people of the Zhenshen Division. ”

Wen Hong let out a long sigh, knowing that this stone city might soon change the sky.

Li Feng is a puppet supported by the sect, and it is precisely because of this that the army has suffered heavy losses in many battles with the sect, and now that Li Feng has been killed, the forces of the sect will never give up.

is different from what everyone imagined, Wang Hao seemed to disappear after entering the county office, and never showed up again.

As the time passed, the sun gradually set, and a figure walked in across the gate of the county government.

After pondering for a long time, Wen Hong still left to come to the county office, as soon as Li Feng died, he was the highest official in Shicheng, and he had to meet Wang Hao with reason.

"It is not good to suppress the sect many times, can you be guilty of Wenhong Protector?"

A cold voice came, and Wang Hao walked out of the darkness and looked at Wen Hong with a calm face.

He also has some understanding of Wen Hong, this person was born in the army, he was Fang Linhou's personal guard, and then came to Shicheng for some reason, and became a protector here, this stay is more than ten years.

Huxia County is the territory of Fang Lin Hou, this marquis is not famous, and he is a marginal figure in the Celestial Empire, but since he is a prince, then this person is also a strong person in the Seven Star Realm.

"The sect's forces are deep-rooted, and it is too difficult to completely eliminate them, but I am indeed guilty of dereliction of duty after many failures. ”

Wen Hong is very calm, there is no way to justify this matter.

"As a protector, you should have clamped down on each other with Li Feng, but you didn't know anything about the latter's actions, which caused the sect's forces to become more and more rampant, I will report this matter to Fang Lin Hou, and it is up to him to decide what crime to punish you. ”

Wang Hao was ruthless and didn't give Wen Hong face at all.

In his opinion, the chaos in Shicheng has something to do with Wen Hong and Li Feng, and it is not the fault of one person, even if Wen Hong has nothing to do with the sect, it is unforgivable to not seek government in his position.
