Chapter 581: Chapter 265: Seizing the Enemy General’s Head Amidst Ten Thousand Troops

Ji City, Protectorate military camp.

Bang~

Upon hearing of his brother’s death, Sunx Jingwei was furious and immediately ordered: "Gather the troops at once, I will wash Yu Yang in blood and let them be buried with my brother!"

The household servants and guests around him saw Sunx Jingwei in a rage and naturally dared not step forward to touch the bad luck at such a time. Moreover, now that the rebels have occupied Ji City, wanting to intimidate the whole of Youzhou, the "sharp thorn" of Yu Yang must be removed.

Otherwise, if other commanderies in Youzhou follow suit, how can these rebellious forces of Da Liang stand their ground?

Therefore, instead of dissuading Sunx Jingwei, they all loudly agreed: "Yu Yang Commandery Governor Shen Huaimin and Commanding Officer Ye Qingzhou, these two traitors are resisting the general as well as the Celestial Destiny, their nine clans should be exterminated as a warning to others!"

Sunx Jingwei’s foremost fierce general, Qin Jie, stood up and requested: "General, these are no ordinary traitors, heavy blows must be dealt. I am willing to be the vanguard and take Yu Yang County City for the general and exterminate Shen and Ye!"

Qin Jie hailed from the Yan Zhao ranger background, skilled in bows and horse riding, and exceptionally brave.

"Good!"

Seeing his men each striving to be first and actively asking to fight, Sunx Jingwei laughed heartily and said: "Rest today, advance tomorrow. Whoever first takes Yu Yang in this battle can pillage for three days without sheathing their swords!"

Although Yu Yang is a border commandery, it is a hub for border trade with Donghu tribes, hence its commerce prospers, gathering valuable goods from silk of Yangzhou, pearls of Qingzhou, gold ornaments of Jizhou, profits iron of Bingzhou, and exquisite jade of Liangzhou, a dazzling array of products, truly all-encompassing.

Therefore, upon hearing that whoever first enters Yu Yang can pillage for three days without sheathing swords, the rebel leaders below instantly shouted: "The general is mighty, our army will surely win this battle!"

After the order was conveyed to the lower ranks, the fervent emotion immediately spread throughout the entire army.

Even the Black Mane and White Mane tribes of the Celestial Wolf Race came to Sunx Jingwei to voluntarily request to join the battle against Yu Yang.

Clearly, they also coveted the wealth of Yu Yang Commandery,

but Sunx Jingwei did not intend to share the spoils, so he found an excuse to refuse them.

The next day, outside Ji City, a massive army gathered.

Sunx Jingwei took three thousand household servants as the main force, using money promises to stabilize the ten thousand border troops of the Northern Domain Protectorate, and then recruited refugees within Youzhou who had lost their land, swiftly expanding his armed forces to a hundred thousand men.

Of course, the truly combat-capable among them are Sunx Jingwei’s household servants and the over ten thousand border army soldiers he had persuaded.

These border army soldiers had been forcibly conscripted by the court, having served beyond their term without their pay and rations often being docked, so they harbored resentment for a long time.

After Sunx Jingwei killed the former Protector and Vice Protector of the Northern Domain Protectorate, they joined the rebels without much psychological burden.

This is the most direct result of the Da Liang Court’s fallen prestige; the lower-level soldiers no longer fear the court, and with poor treatment, only a little incitement and they would immediately defect.

While most are a ragtag bunch, the scale of a hundred thousand still sounds intimidating.

Sunx Jingwei personally led the main force, under the banner of avenging his brother, he charged straight for Yu Yang Commandery with a hundred thousand troops, advancing mightily as if locusts were passing, where smoke and dust filled the sky.

Outside Ji City, Fujun Mountain.

Two people stood on the pinnacle, overlooking the earth. They were the Dao Master of Louguan Dao, Divine Calculator Lv Gongming, and behind him his young first disciple Xu Biyi, who had practiced with him since childhood.

"Master, you once said there is Celestial Destiny in Youzhou, could it be upon Sunx Jingwei?"

"No."

Lv Gongming, with crane-like hair and youthful face, stood proudly on the rocks amidst the wind, still with a divine demeanor.

With an expression of disdain, he said: "Although Sunx Jingwei has some talent, he ignores fate, as the Celestial Destiny of Da Liang is not exhausted, he impatiently rebels, this is the path to ruin, and he will not end well."

"Then, Master, who do you think will bear the Celestial Destiny?"

Xu Biyi was very curious.

"Celestial Destiny is unpredictable, I cannot fully understand Heaven’s Will, but the Celestial Destiny is indeed in Youzhou, this is conclusive. During the last Fulong Court struggle, our Louguan Dao suffered a great loss. Now Da Liang’s three hundred years of Celestial Destiny is ending, this is our chance for a comeback."

"Given this, why did Master deliberately spread rumors, not fearing the contention of other Dao branches?"

Xu Biyi was quite puzzled.

"This is a conflict for fame and power, how can it be handled through conspiracies?"

Lv Gongming reproached, then confidently and calmly said: "Moreover, Yan Zhao Land is our Louguan Dao’s home ground, with all the advantages, if other Dao branches dare to come, let them try."

While the master and disciple were conversing, Lv Gongming looked towards Yu Yang Commandery and his expression suddenly changed, full of shock: "Destiny flows, the reign changes, how can this be."

........

Yu Yang Commandery, Ye Qingzhou’s eyes filled with flowing five-colored brilliance, and his aura underwent a tremendous transformation.

Having gained the hearts of all the people of Yu Yang Commandery and lighting up Ten Thousand Lights, Ye Qingzhou’s spiritual world underwent an incredible change.

"The path of Martial Dao, so this is it."

Ye Qingzhou realized inwardly: "The so-called Martial Dao not only requires ’Martial’ but also ’Dao’. Martial provides the power to protect Dao, while Dao is the foundation of strong Martial, both are indispensable."

Previously, in cultivation, Ye Qingzhou possessed only ’Martial’ but lacked ’Dao’.

Even learning the Refining Spirit Heart Method of ’Carrying the Dao with Words’ at Yuelu Academy, the Dao carried was ’Fake Dao’, not the true Great Dao.
