The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 057

Chapter 057 Golden Scaled Guards
Not long after Li Qing and Liu Ke’er left the city, the ground suddenly shook violently.

“Rumble!”

On the wide street, a group of cavalry dressed in golden heavy armor and holding golden spears roared past, rushing towards the city gate. That terrifying speed was like a roaring golden torrent of steel, vast and mighty, unstoppable!

Under the brilliant sunlight at noon, these knights were like golden war gods, emitting a resplendent light that no one dared to look directly at.

They were riding a Dragon Blood BMW. It was a top-grade horse. Shen Jun was unparalleled, and his speed was extremely fast. Not long after, he rushed over half of the city and rushed out of the city gate.

The originally noisy streets were instantly swept clean. All the pedestrians retreated one after another. No one dared to block their path. Otherwise, they would undoubtedly die and be crushed.

“It’s the Golden Scaled Guards! No wonder they dare to act so tyrannically!” Someone cried out in alarm.

“What are they doing? Is there a war?”

“I don’t think so. If there really is a war, how could we only send out a few dozen people?”

The crowd was discussing and watching the disappearing golden cavalry, they couldn’t calm down for a long time.

The armed forces of Dongchang City were divided into three parts. The first part was the militia. As long as they were strong, they could join them to maintain law and order.

The second part was the Black Tiger Legion. There were a total of more than 3,000 people. All of them were composed of powerful martial artists. They were the main battle legion of Dongchang City.

As for the third part, it was the Golden Scaled Guards that he had just seen. There were only over a hundred people in total. They were all composed of elite warriors at the seventh level of the Houtian realm and above. They were the trump cards of Dongchang City.

Because they wore heavy golden armor and held a golden divine spear, their entire bodies shone with golden light, so they were called the Golden Scaled Guards.

These golden heavy armors weren’t ordinary armors, but were made of profound gold heavy iron. Their defenses were extremely powerful and indestructible. Even Xiantian experts would need a lot of effort to break through such a profound gold heavy armor.

The Wang Clan had spent all of their resources to forge more than a hundred sets of profound gold heavy armor, forming a Golden Scaled Guard as their trump card.

Such a powerful army would not easily move, it was the last force to defend the Wang Clan. Who would have thought that the legendary legion would suddenly appear in front of everyone today, causing everyone to be extremely surprised and speculate whether something big had happened.

…

At this moment, outside the city. Wang Jinghao and Grandmaster Hong rode on the Dragonblood BMW and led a group of Golden Scaled Guards forward with high spirits and arrogance.

The Golden Scaled Guards consisted of ten people. This time, he had transferred three guards, that is, thirty people. He believed that they could easily get rid of Li Qing and the others.

Unless they were Xiantian experts, they would definitely not be able to escape. Wang Jinghao was confident.

The Golden Scaled Guards’ strongest point was their equipment. Even Xiantian experts would not be able to break through such defenses easily. He didn’t believe that Li Qing could do any harm to this terrifying army unless they had a high-grade weapon.

Moreover, even with a high-grade weapon, killing a Golden Scaled Guard was not easy.

“Too powerful, too powerful!” Master Hong looked at this group of shining golden martial artists and sighed in admiration. Although he was old, his strength was not weak. He insisted on following Li Qing to kill him, wanting to witness this grand occasion with his own eyes.

“Of course!” Wang Jinghao’s face revealed a trace of pride. “This is our trump card. Originally, we didn’t need so many men to intercept and kill those two people. I only sent three Golden Scaled Guards over just to be on the safe side.”

“Haha, that’s right. Eldest Young Master is indeed very cautious. Such a powerful force is enough to easily crush those two. They are doomed this time.” Master Hong was filled with anticipation. A cold light shone in his eyes as he said hatefully, “That little thief actually dares to be disrespectful to me. He is extremely arrogant. When I catch him, I will torture him properly before killing him!”

…

After Li Qing and Liu Ke’er left Dongchang City, they did not stop and went straight to the east. After walking for about two hours, they finally stopped when they were far away from Dongchang City.

This place was a continuous mountain range. The terrain wasn’t that dangerous, but it was more changeable and undulating.

Looking back, Dongchang City had already disappeared from their eyes, but the piercing feeling was still there.

Li Qing could vaguely feel a cold gaze staring at them. Obviously, the person following them was still following them from afar.

“This place is already far enough from Dongchang City. There won’t be any worries in the future if we fight here.” He whispered.

“Mm. Is the person following us still behind?” Liu Ke’er asked.

“That’s right. Looks like we need to deal with him first. Otherwise, we won’t have the initiative!” After Li Qing finished speaking, he looked forward. However, he saw that there were many hidden places in the mountains. It was an excellent ambush spot. He thought for a moment and said, “Come, let’s go ahead and ambush. Wait for that person to follow us.”

The main reason was that the stalker behind him was very wretched. He was only hanging from a distance without revealing any traces. If Li Qing turned around to kill him, he would probably run away in the blink of an eye.

If he wanted to kill him, he could only wait for him to take the initiative to come forward and die.

In front of him was an excellent terrain. A mountain corner protruded out, blocking the line of sight. The people following him could not see Li Qing and Liu Ke’er.

The two of them did not show any signs of change. They naturally turned around the corner of the mountain and quickly hid in the bushes.

Sure enough, the stalker behind him did not notice anything wrong and quickly chased after them. He turned the corner of the mountain and discovered that the two of them had disappeared.

“Hmm? Where did it go? Why did it suddenly disappear?” He was puzzled. He was very confident in his tracking methods.

“Are you looking for me?” Li Qing’s voice sounded from the side. The voice of the Dark Forest was like the voice of the Netherworld.

That person was shocked and instantly understood what was going on. He hurriedly wanted to retreat, but it was too late. Li Qing had already slashed out with his saber, turning into purple lightning that was filled with lightning.

That person reacted quickly. Seeing that there was no way to retreat, he quickly pulled out his weapon and raised his shield. However, the Heavenly Saber was invincible. It was like cutting tofu, cutting his weapon apart.

“Die!”

Li Qing forcefully pulled the Heavenly Saber down, slicing the opponent’s saber in half. Blood stained the ground red.

After dealing with this person, the two of them made a move together and dug a large pit beside him. They buried this person’s corpse on the spot and hastily dealt with the scene until no one could see anything unusual.

Li Qing said, “I guess the other party’s army will soon catch up. If they ambush here, I’m afraid they will notice something strange. Why don’t we go ahead and ambush them and act according to the situation. If they have too many people and we are not opponents, then don’t make a move.”

“I know. I’ll follow you when the time comes.” Liu Ke’er nodded heavily.

They walked to a spot in front of the corner of the mountain, found a hidden place, hid themselves, and waited quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, the earth suddenly trembled. The enemy had finally arrived!

“Ha! Ha! Ha!”

From afar, a group of golden cavalry flew over the plains, their momentum like a rainbow, rapidly approaching. Li Qing saw at a glance that the two leading figures were Wang Jinghao and Master Hong.

“There are a total of more than 30 people. They are all at the seventh level of the Houtian realm and above. They are well-equipped and don’t seem to be easy to provoke.” Li Qing’s expression was solemn. He evaluated in his heart for a while and said, “However, in the case of a sneak attack, we should be able to fight!”

“Wang Jinghao and Master Hong are also here. I didn’t expect the two of them to follow me. It’s really great!” A cold light flashed in Liu Ke’er’s eyes.

“When they pass by, we’ll intercept them and disrupt their formation. Take out the Lunar Sword. Their equipment seems to be very powerful. Ordinary weapons won’t be able to easily break through their defenses.” Li Qing instructed. His eyes were very accurate, and he could see the strongest place of the cavalry at a glance. However, in front of the Heavenly Saber and the Lunar God Sword, what was the use of a strong defense?

Obviously, the other party’s strongest advantage was completely useless to Li Qing. Killing them was not much different from killing a group of ordinary Houtian seventh layer martial artists.

As for the Lunar Temple Divine Sword, they planned to silence them all anyway, so it didn’t matter if they were seen.

Liu Ke’er took out the sparkling Lunar Sword from her interspatial ring. The air seemed to have cooled down.

She could feel the excitement of the spirit of the divine sword. She was infected and her blood boiled. “Ten years of sharpening the sword, the frost blade has not been tested! The Lunar Sword has been buried for so long, and today is finally the time to show its sharpness.”

After the discussion was settled, they stopped talking and waited patiently, waiting for the opportunity to move. The cavalry quickly arrived at the mountain range.

“Stop!” When Wang Jinghao gave the order, all the troops instantly stopped, banned, and trained.

“They’re really fast. They’re so far away from Dongchang City.” He sighed and looked at the rolling mountains in front of him. He felt that something was wrong and asked. “This is a mountain range in front of you. It shouldn’t be suitable for cavalry to drive, right?”

One of the captains replied, “Young Master, you underestimate our Golden Scaled Guards too much. The Dragon Blood BMW we ride is extremely powerful. Its entire body is blood red, and it has the bloodline of the dragon race. Its strength is incomparably strong. Its hooves have five fingers, and it can climb mountains and cross rivers as if they are walking on flat ground. This mountain is nothing to us. Of course, its speed may be slower, but it’s not a problem.”

“That’s good.” Wang Jinghao nodded his head and said, “I’m afraid that the mountains will rise and fall, and the terrain will change. If they ambush me, I might get hurt.” His eyesight was indeed very clever, and he could faintly sense it.

Master Hong said, “Didn’t you send someone to chase after us? We followed the trail left behind by that spy. There shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“That’s right, those marks along the way were created by our Wang Clan. No one else can fake them.” Wang Jinghao also felt that he was overthinking things. He should believe the scouts he sent out, so he nodded and said, “Alright, let’s catch up immediately! Even if someone ambushes us, it won’t cause us much damage.” The main reason was that the Golden Scaled Guards were too precious. In order to avoid damage, he was so cautious. Now, it seemed that he was thinking too much.

“Charge!” Wang Jinghao no longer hesitated and waved the whip in his hand. This large group of people rushed up the mountain.

After entering this complicated terrain, their speed had indeed slowed down. Seeing the tracing marks left behind by the scouts along the way, they did not notice anything strange, so they no longer doubted it and rushed over with all their might.

Just as they were about to turn the corner of the mountain, a strange change appeared!
