Peerless Taoist

The light in the surroundings was dim, and dark clouds covered the area.    

In front of the Ten Thousand Mile Pass, the Hidden Dragon Legion was the first to launch an attack. Under the cover of countless spirit stone Cannons, they quickly arrived in front of the pass.    

The black mass of soldiers arrived in front of the Tiger Cage Pass like a tide. Battleship cannons were fired continuously, covering the entire Tiger Cage Pass.    

Dong! Dong! Dong!    

A series of rapid bell chimes sounded from the tower of Tiger Cage Pass.    

The Tang army on the wall of Tiger Cage Pass tried to retaliate, but they were quickly repelled by the dense spirit stone cannons. They hurriedly activated the city protection formation once again.    

The bell chimes on the city wall suddenly stopped.    

A group of civilians, men and women, old and old, were pushed onto the city wall and knelt down in front of the soldiers.    

Their hands were tied behind their backs, and every single one of them was covered in wounds and bloodstains.    

"Those people are the family members of the Tiger Cage Pass guards." Fu Zhixue sighed.    

The Tiger Cage Pass guards were forced, but they did not escape. They fought to the end and died on the battlefield.    

After his death, his family was captured by the Tang army and tortured.    

Tang Jun flaunted his power in front of the city wall. Then he grabbed one of the men and stabbed him in the heart.    

The man instantly fell to the ground and struggled in pain. Finally, he ended his life in a pool of blood.    

Like a performance, Tang Jun continued his slaughter.    

Almost everyone died in extreme pain.    

Regardless of gender or age.    

Lu Yu said coldly, "I will avenge them."    

The Hidden Dragon Army's siege was still going on, but the Tiger Cage Pass' great city-protecting formation was still very stable. It didn't budge at all.    

All the soldiers were burning with anger. They wanted to destroy the Tang Army in front of them.    

"It's almost time. The vanguard legion is almost at the city gate." Fu Zhixue transmitted his voice.    

Their goal today was to break through the gate of Tiger Cage Pass.    

Lu Yu, Fu Zhixue, and the others did not move.    

Because their goal was too big, once they moved, it would definitely cause the Tang Army generals in the city to target them.    

The matter of breaking the city had just been announced, so they did not give the Tang Army spies a chance to spread the news.    

Along the way, the attack went rather smoothly. As long as they arrived in front of the city gates, the vanguard army would have a way to temporarily weaken the formation in that area.    

The ones leading the vanguard army were Qin Lushan and Lu Jingsheng.    

Both of them were elite generals of their respective armies, and they were extremely fast and imposing as they quickly attacked the city gates.    

However, at this moment.    

A red-robed official suddenly walked out from the city gate.    

He was wearing the official uniform of Great Yu's Imperial Court!    

Behind him was a group of Great Yu officials, their faces filled with arrogance.    

"I am Xu Youran, the Assistant Minister of Rites. I have received an Imperial decree from His Majesty to send a message!" The official said in a loud voice.    

Behind him, a minor official unfolded the Imperial Decree, and a vast monarch aura instantly spread out from it.    

Many of the soldiers were cultivators, so they immediately saw the contents of the Imperial Decree after activating their Dharma Eyes.    

This was actually the Imperial Decree written by Zhao Yuanyan!    

On it, there was also the Emperor's Seal!    

"Xu Family? It's the Xu Family again!" Lu Yu's heart sank, and he suddenly had a bad idea.    

Xu Youran held the Imperial Decree and walked to the city wall.    

"His Majesty has ordered that peace is the most important thing in the Heaven Realm. His Majesty has already summoned the Tang Dynasty envoy to discuss the terms of peace today. All troops at the front line, guard the position and do not take the initiative to attack! "    

His voice, combined with the might of the Imperial Decree, was like a brilliant heavenly tune that reverberated in the sky.    

All of a sudden, all the Great Yu soldiers stopped attacking. They stood rooted to the ground, at a loss for what to do.
