532: Chapter 451 Night Visit to the County Governnt Chapter 452 Invasion Like Fire_4 532: Chapter 451 Night Visit to the County Governnt Chapter 452 Invasion Like Fire_4 Zhou Ping’an coughed lightly a few tis and spat out several fetid blood clots before he felt that the filthy stench, worse than a sewer, was finally leaving his body and mind.

At that ti, he finally relaxed.

Turning to look around, he noticed that there was a slight disturbance within the city which soon returned to its desolate and cold atmosphere.

The blood haze soaring into the sky from where the Prefectural Governor’s Mansion of Cui Guangling was located seed to obscure even the moonlight under Zhou Ping’an’s ntal perception.

“They haven’t chased after .

Are they afraid to chase, or simply uninterested?”

Zhou Ping’an paused, pondering for a mont before suddenly realizing.

“That’s right; I took so damage just now, but the Sea-Splitting Sword seed able to cut through everything—even spiritual souls.

Even the unusual and tricky Blood Spirit Child should have suffered so damage after being cut.”

“That old man must be frightened.”

Just at that thought, Zhou Ping’an’s previously gloomy mood was swept away.

“Hehe,” he chuckled softly.

With this, the initiative was his.

It was too dangerous to try breaking through their formation.

But he could force them out.

It couldn’t be that in such a vast Guangyun County, he would simply be ignored.

“This matter needs haste.”

With that understanding, Zhou Ping’an imdiately felt a clarity in his heart.

Whether it be capturing civilians for blood sacrifices or gathering Qi Fortune for cultivation.

A territory was necessary to achieve both.

Cui Guangling hiding within the mansion practicing his techniques, likely had not yet achieved complete success.

In layman’s terms, his Blood Spirit Child probably had not achieved Great Achievent yet.

There was still so refinent needed.

Though Zhou Ping’an didn’t know specifically what Cui Guangling lacked.

However, Zhou naturally had his own ways.

“Just take down all the surrounding cities and villages of Guangyun County, forcing that fellow to show himself outside the formations, then the outco is yet to be determined.

Without the protection of the formation, I wonder how many moves from the Sea-Splitting Sword this Master Cui can withstand?”

…

In the quiet room, the clash of swords and the sharp cutting of the air continued intermittently, lasting for nearly an hour.

Until the food and drinks were served.

With everyone’s stomachs growling, soone couldn’t help but ask Zhou Ping’an if it was ti to start the al before the room opened again.

Leading the way, Zhou Ping’an said with a smile, “Uncle Master Yu’s swordsmanship is getting fiercer by the day, indeed compensating for so weaknesses in my sword technique.

Thank you for this.”

The thanks, of course, were not for refining the sword techniques.

But for Uncle Master Yu Changsheng performing a one-man, dual-role play inside the room.

When Zhou Ping’an had just returned, he had hidden outside the Quiet Room’s window for a while and discovered that Uncle Master Yu was indeed a hexagonal talent with various skills.

Though she focused solely on martial arts day-to-day, it didn’t an she was unlearned.

Peeking through the window, he saw the uncle master at one mont dash to the left, wielding a long sword creating thousands of sword flowers with sword Qi whistling.

And at another mont to the right, taking up a long sword, cleaving through the winds like a tempestuous sea.

Moreover, using maneuvers with one hand and sword motions with the other as if she were two people locked in a mortal duel, she vividly perford the Canghai Sword Codex.

The most impressive part was Uncle Master Xiao Yu’s ventriloquism.

While speaking her lines, she also feigned speaking as Zhou Ping’an, the two voices intermingling discussing the essence of martial arts without any discordance.

Incredible indeed.

Zhou Ping’an, from outside the window, glided like a gentle breeze into the room, causing Yu Changsheng to give him a fierce stare, nearly collapsing onto a chair.

She was exhausted, mostly ntally…

She didn’t ask where Zhou Ping’an had been or whether he had succeeded in his task; it was an undisclosed matter.

Speaking it aloud would an having to beware of walls with ears.

The reason for performing such a scene was to allow those Cloud Water Sect disciples outside to bear witness.

To testify that Zhou Ping’an had been there all along and had never left.

With that sequence in place, even if a more formidable ancestor from within the sect who could sense the genuine emotions of disciples showed up, they would likely discover nothing amiss.

Everyone knew that Zhang Taiyan ca to Pinghu, was wounded and left.

As for fighting back furiously in anger and driving Master Zhang away after that, Zhou Ping’an had not pursued further.

And Zhang Taiyan dying on the road.

What did that have to do with Zhou Ping’an?

On this matter, everything had passed.

“So, the only loophole is Uncle Master Yu Changsheng.”

“But, Uncle Master Yu Changsheng, being loyal to oneself and possessing a famously pure heart, such a ntal state is the best at resisting psychic influences; however rigorous the inquiry, as long as she doesn’t want to reveal any flaws, she absolutely can conceal them.”

One couldn’t possibly interrogate such a talented disciple of their own sect harshly over the death of Zhang Taiyan, especially since the Cloud Water Sect was a Daoist Sect and not one of the demonic paths.

With these thoughts swirling in his mind.

Zhou Ping’an showed no sign on his face.

He greeted everyone to the feast.

After having their fill, he imdiately issued commands late at night, leaving so troops to guard the Three Counties of Liyou, while sending all combat-ready soldiers across the river, heading towards Wen Creek and Hu Ridge.

This ti, he decided to contest control with Cui Guangling.

…

The next day.

As Zhan Shanhe, whose injuries had improved, and the Inner Sect Disciples had just set out.

From the direction of Qingyang City, Lin Huaiyu had already sent a letter by pigeon stating that she planned to urgently gather twenty thousand trusted aides and head for the Li River Ferry.

After instructing a few words, Yu Changsheng also prepared to head to Guangyun, ensuring smooth communication and tracking Cui Guangling’s movents.

At that mont.

A spy sent by the Qingnü Sect brought back a piece of news.

“Are you saying that this morning at the fourth Shichen the Red Lotus Sect deployed troops and at the fifth Shichen they attacked the camp, slew Qiu Huaiying in formation, directly assaulted Yunjin Ferry, and are now starting to cross the bridge?”

Zhou Ping’an could hardly believe his ears.

Just a while ago, the Red Lotus Army and Qiu Huaiying, together with the Yunjin Guardian General Su Ming, had been forced to flee, losing city after city.

Unexpectedly, the situation had changed so rapidly.

After one sleep, the forces of the Red Lotus Sect had beco so formidable, truly living up to the phrase, “they invade like fire.”

Such timing was indeed too coincidental.
