Swallowing the Emperor

Chapter 378 Apology?

Outside the city of Chang'an, [-] troops stood in formation.

Soon, two messenger guards came back from the city lord's mansion on horseback, and hurriedly climbed to the top of the tower. Looking at the endless cavalry, their hearts couldn't help trembling again.

"Go away? Apologize?"

The two messengers looked at each other with a bit of bitterness in their mouths. If he told them to roll over and apologize, would these people kill him?
"When will the city lord come over?"

The captain of the guard looked at the two and asked hurriedly.

"The city lord is not coming." One person faltered.

"what?"

The captain raised his eyebrows.

Another person said: "The city lord said, let them go to the city lord's mansion to apologize in person."

The captain was dumbfounded, thinking he had heard wrong.

"say!"

At this time, an extremely domineering voice came from outside the city, shaking his eardrums, causing the guards on the city wall to tremble violently.

"Convey the meaning of the city lord to them." The captain gritted his teeth and yelled at one of the messengers viciously.

"team leader……"

"Say!"

The messenger gritted his teeth, then closed his eyes and shouted: "The city lord told you to go over and come to the door to apologize."

After shouting this, the orderly soldier felt his whole body loosen, as if he was relieved from a heavy burden, all the bones in his body went limp.

But the other people above the city gate trembled all over, and their hearts almost jumped out of fright.

Damn, how did this damn bastard talk, is he crazy?
When the legion outside the city heard this, they suddenly fell silent, and the world fell into a dead silence.

Only three breaths later, a soaring evil spirit erupted, like a roaring hurricane, sweeping in, the city guards felt cold all over their bodies, and their spirits trembled, many of them sat paralyzed in fright on the ground.

Mo Lin came out of the carriage, playing with a metal mask in his hand. He slowly put the mask on his face, thinking that this Xia Houchao is really kind. He dared to show off when the army besieged the city. ?
If every general guarding the city is like him, what's the use of having more cities in Yunlan?

"Very well, then go to the City Lord's Mansion, and I will personally come to apologize."

Merlin made a faint sound.

"Yes!"

Tens of thousands of troops shouted in unison, mobilized their horses, and marched straight into Chang'an City.

Mo Lin's voice was not loud, but the guards at the city gate and the people in the city heard it. Why did the words of apology at the gate sound so cold and frightening in my ears?
"Boom, boom!"

The ground rolled and trembled again, roaring, and the cavalry galloping. This rumbling sound, like a dull thunder, kept trembling in the hearts of everyone.

The cavalry turned into a steel dragon and stepped into the city of Chang'an.

At this moment, Chang'an City was completely boiling, no one dared to block the road, and they all dodged around.

"What a powerful legion, where is this legion, why did it come to Chang'an City?"

The people in Chang'an City had doubts in their hearts. Those people who saw the cavalry passing in front of them with their own eyes trembled violently. Just walking past them made their legs tremble, and some people were so frightened that they couldn't even move. .

In the city lord's mansion, it was still a jubilant scene, extremely lively.

At this moment, the ground seemed to tremble slightly, and the guests who were exchanging glasses in the banquet hall were shocked and frowned.

The sound of galloping iron cavalry came continuously, endlessly.

"what happened?"

"I do not know."

"It's thundering?"

"It's sunny, why is there thunder?"

A guest stood up from his seat and looked out.

Xia Houchao's brows were also frowned, and he looked out of the city lord's mansion with a thoughtful look on his face.

"Uncle Xia Hou, don't worry, with me, He Xingchen, even if the royal guards arrive, they will have to greet them with a smile."

This is a bit bragging. Given the He family's status in the imperial city, the royal family really dare not offend them easily. It's not because they are afraid, but because of the coexistence of interests.

Xia Hou Wushuang had witnessed He Xingchen's majesty with his own eyes. Seeing Xia Houchao frowned, he smiled lightly and said, "Father, don't worry, no matter what happens, as long as Brother Xingchen is around, it can be solved easily. Probably, it's outsiders." The army is in a hurry to greet you."

?"Um."

Xia Houchao nodded slightly, then said with a smile: "Come on, everyone continue to drink, they will wait here to see who is sacred." It's just that there is already a little more reluctance in this smile.

The guests raised their wine glasses again, but their hearts were beating a little. Is it really an apology?How did they feel? There was a constant chill coming from afar. At that time, the messenger left in a hurry and didn't have time to ask the other party how many troops there were. Listening to the voice, there were at least a few thousand people.

There were only three thousand generals in Chang'an City, and the dignitaries in the city had never seen a scene of tens of thousands of troops galloping and charging in their entire lives, and they felt guilty in their hearts.

The rumbling sound became louder and louder. Outside the city lord's mansion, the guards guarding the gate of the mansion were so shocked that they couldn't move their legs when they saw the army rushing from afar.

In just a moment, the army, whose tail could not be seen at a glance, arrived outside the city lord's mansion.

"Crack!"

There was a sound of cracking, and a flash of sword light flashed. The gate of the City Lord's Mansion burst open, turning into a pile of sawdust and flying into the air.

"Boom, click, Peng!"

Trembling sounds came and went, everything in front of the mansion was instantly destroyed, and everything that blocked the cavalry was wiped out.

Trampling on the debris on the ground, the cavalry stepped into the city lord's mansion and drove straight in.

The City Lord's Mansion was in total chaos, no matter if it was the guards or the servant girls, they all ran around screaming, their ear-piercing voices piercing into the sky.

In the banquet hall, the guests who were talking and laughing just now finally stopped laughing.

The guests all stood up, and the first thing they saw were forty barbarian warriors riding giant rhinoceros, wearing black armor, and carrying huge swords, and then more than a dozen elite generals riding red armor and red horses, followed closely behind. It was an endless army of iron armor, and everyone was stunned by the scene in front of them.

Most of the dignitaries of Chang'an City attending the banquet today are martial arts masters that can be counted in the city.

Among them, the one with the highest level of Soul Origin Realm was at the tenth level, and his sensitivity to aura was also very subtle. Among the forty barbarian warriors, none of them was weaker than the city lord Xiahou in their perception!
Forty Wuzong masters? !

They didn't even dare to think about it.

This cavalry turned into a coiling long snake, surrounding the entire banquet hall.

The cold, terrifying atmosphere quickly permeated the world.

Xia Houchao's heart was also trembling violently. From the armor of the army behind him, he vaguely guessed the identity of the opponent, but he couldn't believe it.

He Xingchen frowned tightly, put down the wine glass, stood up, and then walked slowly to the door of the banquet hall.

Looking at the general in blue armor and face-covering helmet in front of him, He Xingchen looked indifferent, and shouted in a deep voice, "You are so courageous. You are the city defense forces of Hongdu City. Why did you appear in Chang'an City?"
