Chapter 221: Divine Strike
"What did you say... Qingtong fell?!"

Yunmengze, the residence of the Tuoba family.

Looking at Zhao Qingshan covered in blood and the news he brought back, Tuoba Wufeng couldn't believe his ears.

Tuoba Qingtong, one of the seven cultivators in the family, who was at the sixth level of Qi training and also one of his nephews, died silently?
Even his own nephew's son-in-law was seriously injured and would not be able to recover without a few years of recuperation.

“What on earth just happened…!”

Tuoba Wufeng grabbed Zhao Qingshan's arm tightly and asked angrily.

"Tell me everything in detail. I want to know all the details of Qingtong's fall!"

“Yes, yes, Patriarch!”

Zhao Qingshan took a deep breath and said, "My nephew and Brother Qingtong are stationed on Wuxi Island..."

A quarter of an hour later, Tuoba Wufeng said solemnly, "You mean, Qingtong died from a spirit insect?"

"Yes, yes, Chief!"

Zhao Qingshan said: "I was originally controlling the Mist Python Flag to contain the Dayu Navy, and Brother Qingtong went to kill the general of the Dayu Navy. Who would have thought that in just a dozen breaths, Brother Qingtong fell in an instant."

"I was just one step slower, and was caught up by a blood-colored spirit insect. I almost died."

"Bloody spirit insect..."

Tuoba Wufeng asked curiously: "What does it look like? What abilities does it have?"

"To the Patriarch, I have used a blank jade slip to copy it, please take a look."

Tuoba Wufeng took the jade slip from Zhao Qingshan's hand and examined it carefully.

A strange insect that was only the size of a thumb, shaped like a spider, had three pairs of transparent wings on its back, and was blood red in color. It appeared in front of Tuoba Wufeng.

"What kind of spiritual insect is this?"

He thought hard, but couldn't remember where he had seen this kind of spiritual insect.

Zhao Qingshan continued, "Chief, this spirit insect is not afraid of fire, it is extremely fast, and it can also shoot out spiritual blades. It easily broke my protective shield."

"Fortunately, I had the Mist Python Flag, which trapped it in the fog, so I was able to escape with my life."

"According to my guess, the spiritual insect's cultivation is at least in the late stage of Qi training, otherwise it would not be able to break the protective shields of my nephew and Brother Qingtong so easily!"

"A spirit insect in the late stage of Qi training..."

Tuoba Wuying murmured, his eyes full of surprise and disbelief.

"Spiritual insects... Mayfly Sect?"

"Or... Mayfly Tower!"

"wrong……"

Tuoba Wuying's eyes flashed and he said, "Dayu Zheng Clan is one of the culprits who destroyed the Ephemeral Clan. How could the Ephemeral Clan possibly help Dayu Zheng Clan?"

"Unless... the Zheng family of Dayu has the inheritance left by the Mayfly Sect."

"To control a spirit insect in the late stage of Qi training, one needs at least a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training."

"Since a spirit insect in the late stage of Qi training has appeared in my Yunmengze, there is no guarantee that there will not be one in Xuzhou..."

Zhao Qingshan hesitated and asked, "Patriarch, what should we do next?"

"Wuxi Island has been occupied by the Dayu Navy. Our navy has lost more than 100,000 people. What if..."

"What are you in such a hurry for?"

Tuoba Wufeng said indifferently: "They are just a group of mortals. What does it matter if more of them die?"

"You are seriously injured. You should stay in the clan for a while to recover and teach the new disciples."

"Yes, patriarch!"

In the past few years, perhaps due to the revival of spiritual energy, the annual spiritual root test allowed the Tuoba family to find two five-year-old children with spiritual roots in Yunmengze!
One is a boy from a branch of the Tuoba family, named Tuoba Lingshan.

One is the daughter of an ordinary fisherman, named Wang Xiaoyu.

Both of them were taken into the family and led by Tuoba Lingyun, who taught them basic knowledge of cultivation.

He waved his hand, signaling Zhao Qingshan to leave, and Tuoba Wufeng called Tuoba Wugou.

"Chief, what's the important matter?"

Tuoba Wufeng said in a deep voice: "Wu Gou, Qingtong has fallen."

"what?!"

Tuoba Wujiu was surprised and said, "How, how is it possible! Qingtong is the disciple with the most travel experience among the second generation disciples of our clan. How could it be..."

"This is absolutely true."

Tuoba Wufeng said: "The one who killed Qingtong should be a hidden cultivator from the Zheng clan of Dayu. He used a spirit insect in the late stage of Qi training to attack and kill Qingtong."

"I must avenge this!"

"A spirit insect in the late stage of Qi training?" Tuoba Wujiu quickly responded: "The Ephemeral Sect?"

"Could it be that the Zheng family of Dayu has contacted the remnants of the Mayfly Sect?"

"impossible……"

Tuoba Wufeng said: "There is a deep blood feud between the Fei Lou and the Dayu Zheng family. It is impossible for the Fei Lou to unite with the Dayu Zheng family."

"I guess that it must be that the Zheng family of Dayu obtained some inheritance from the Mayfly Tower, which allowed them to cultivate a spirit insect in the late stage of Qi training."

"So what are you going to do, Patriarch?"

"I am going to... contact the Mayfly Tower!"

"It would be difficult for me to deal with a late-stage Qi training spirit insect. But if two or three late-stage Qi training cultivators attack together, the opponent will be invincible."

Tuoba Wufeng said: "My Tuoba clan and the Yiqi Tower are acquaintances. If we invite them to deal with the Dayu Zheng family, they will surely be willing."

"Especially the deputy owner of the Ephemeral Building, Huo Lingzi!"

"A few years ago, he was seriously injured in the Dayu Palace and has been recuperating until now."

"Mayfly Tower..."

Tuoba Wugui said: "Patriarch, go with peace of mind. I am here in Yunmengze, nothing will happen."

"Thank you, Sister Wuqi."

Tuoba Wufeng said: "Wuying is currently in Xuzhou helping Prince Chen fight against Xu Mu's army. I will return after I contact the Ephemeral Tower."

"it is good!"

After arranging all this, Tuoba Wufeng immediately stepped on the flying sword and flew towards the southeast.

After a few breaths, the figure disappeared into the thick fog.

three days later.

His figure appeared on the beach.

After determining the direction, he once again stepped on the flying sword and went deep into the sea, and soon disappeared.

...Guangqing City.

"fire!"

"fire!"

"boom……!!!"

Hundreds of red cannons were fired at the same time, and immediately hundreds of shells hit the walls of Guangqing City hard.

The walls of Guangqing City, which were built with armored vehicles, were finally blown down under the continuous bombardment of the red cannons.

A large number of huge rocks mixed with bricks and rolling logs collapsed from the city wall.

The White Lotus sect members on the city wall also fell down from the wall with screams and hit the ground heavily.

The sounds of shouting and screaming were endless and it was very miserable.

Xu Mujun personally led 100,000 Longxiang troops and rushed there overnight in order to wipe out the White Lotus rebels as quickly as possible.

Fortunately, the roads between Xuzhou and Qingzhou were unobstructed, and the red cannons could catch up quickly.

"boom!!!"

Another series of artillery fire came, hitting the city wall hard again.

Countless huge rocks and logs fell, and countless White Lotus sect members were blown to pieces.

at last.

After ten consecutive bombings, more than half of the east and south walls of Guangqing City had collapsed.

Even the gates of the two cities were blown into pieces.

Guangqing City has been completely exposed to the attack of the Longxiang Army.

"Qiang...!"

Xu Mujun drew out his long sword with one hand and pointed it at Guangqing City from a distance.

"kill!"

"kill!"

"kill!"

"Drive~!"

One hundred thousand Longxiang soldiers roared and rushed towards Guangqing from the east and south.

Only about 5,000 cavalrymen were left behind as reserve troops.

While running wildly, there was also a captain shouting loudly.

"Kill anyone holding a sharp weapon!"

"Whoever wears a white scarf will be killed!"

"Whoever stands in my way will be killed!"

Countless shouts were heard from the army. The leader of the Longxiang Army quickly dismounted from his horse, leaped over the ruins and charged into Guangqing City.

Inside Guangqing City, there was chaos among the White Lotus Sect members.

While he was still in a panic, the Longxiang Army rushed in and was easily killed.

"puff!"

"what!"

"Run!"

“I will die…!”

Shouts continued to ring out, and the morale of the Longxiang Army was high. Facing these weak White Lotus Sect members, they did not hold back at all and quickly broke through the first line of defense.

When the Longxiang Army actually rushed into the inner city, they suddenly saw a large number of White Lotus Sect members wearing white scarves and with fanatical eyes rushing out from the alleys in all directions.

They were wearing single clothes, holding sharp weapons, and had no protective armor on their bodies. They rushed up with fanatical eyes.

While charging, he kept making strange hand seals in front of his chest and shouted loudly:

"The Immortal has bestowed upon me true divine power, and one hundred thousand heavenly soldiers have displayed their magical powers. All immortals, listen to my command and quickly enter my mortal body!"

"I am a heavenly soldier and general!"

"what!"

As they shouted, the eyes and voices of this group of White Lotus sect members became more fanatical.

Among the crowd, there were actually several people whose bodies suddenly flashed with golden light.

"puff!"

"boom!"

"Herodi~!"

In an instant, this group of White Lotus sect members who were not wearing a single piece of armor collided violently with the elite Longxiang Army.

The steel knife in Long Xiangjun's hand easily beheaded the leader of the White Lotus Sect, and the fanatical believers behind him were also beheaded.

In just a few breaths, the White Lotus Sect members were thrown to the ground, suffering heavy casualties.

"What kind of White Lotus Sect is this? They are just a bunch of foolish believers. Kill them now!"

A captain of the Longxiang Army shouted angrily, and took a step forward to kill another White Lotus Sect member.

With a slash, the steel knife in his hand suddenly made a dull sound.

His face changed slightly and he looked up subconsciously.

But I saw a shirtless, thin man holding his long sword tightly with both hands.

The long sword slashed at his body, but only a trace of blood appeared, and it did not cut him in two.

The thin man opened his mouth and laughed, with his yellow teeth exposed, looking extremely disgusting and terrifying.

"Haha, hahaha..."

"I have magical powers, I am invulnerable to swords and guns!"

"Silent mother, empty hometown!"

The thin White Lotus member shouted loudly, and then pulled hard, causing the captain to stagger subconsciously and almost fall to the ground.

Almost at the same time, more White Lotus followers rushed up and knocked the captain to the ground with fanatical eyes.

The axes, sickles, scissors, thimbles and other sharp weapons in their hands were stabbed at him.

"what……!"

"Silent mother, empty hometown!"

One after another, fanatical shouts came from the streets and alleys. Groups of men, women, even old people and children, shouted fanatical slogans and rushed towards the Longxiang Army recklessly.
