Chapter 71 Merit
Whose flying sword is this!
Is there a strong person from the Fifteen Mile Realm coming? !
Everyone was surprised and looked around. Could it be that the Xia family is here?
When Song Yueyao was stunned, a figure appeared in her mind, but the figure she had previously wielded was the broken demon-slaying sword, not this sword. Could it be that the Xia family is really coming?
Speaking of which, where is that guy?
Song Yueyao couldn't help but look around, but didn't see Li Hao.
Similarly, she didn't see the shadow of General Xia's family. Maybe he was standing somewhere and didn't notice it.
While everyone was overjoyed, the remaining demons were all panicked.
This change was so sudden and unexpected!
reinforce? Xia family?
No matter what it is, Taoist Red Eyebrow is dead!
Even it was killed instantly, let alone the rest of them in the Immortal Ascension Realm.
Moreover, I heard that Taoist Red Eyebrow has practiced in the Holy Palace and has practiced Taoism for thousands of years. Even in the fifteen-mile realm, he is an extremely powerful existence.
The powerful true god of the Black Wind Mountain Range was once a tyrant outside Cangyu City and was known as the Giant God Demon King. He was also defeated by Taoist Red Eyebrows and had to obey his orders.
However, facing the Xia family's fifteen-mile realm, is Taoist Red Eyebrow so vulnerable?
The demons were frightened and hurriedly retreated. As for the demon tide below, they couldn't care less.
And as the big demon fled, other demons in the Soul Stepping Realm also got a glimpse. The Red-browed Demon King has fallen, so how can we fight?
The demons behind are still rushing forward, but the demons in front have already turned around and fled in panic.
The collision with each other caused the entire demon tide to become chaotic.
At the same time, after the flying sword killed the red-browed Taoist, Li Hao continued to shuttle around the battlefield, chasing the fleeing Immortal Realm demons.
These big monsters still have the ability to make a comeback, so Li Hao will naturally not let them go.
The light of the sword was like lightning, passing quickly across the battlefield. The fleeing Great Demon of the Immortal Realm was frightened and wanted to resist and cast a life-saving magic spell. However, under the speed and power of the flying sword, he was vulnerable to the blow and had no chance of resisting. The suspense is easily penetrated.
One by one, the big demon screamed and fell.
These big monsters could only scatter in all directions, hoping that the other party's objects were not far enough away to catch up.
But when Li Hao was operating the flying sword, he had already taken action and flew towards the north of the city.
When Wei Feng, who was originally preparing to retreat, saw this, he had a thought in his mind. With Li Hao so strong in the Fifteen Mile Realm, he was afraid that unless he was a great demon in the Heavenly Realm, he would not be able to successfully attack the city.
And for a great demon in the realm of heaven and human beings, there is no need to resort to the help of other monsters to cause such a big commotion.
The massacre of the city was nothing more than a casual matter, a stick of incense.
However, it is even more dangerous for a great demon from the Heavenly Realm to enter the country. Once he commits massacre in a city, he will be hunted to the ends of the earth by the Divine General Mansion, so he rarely commits the crime alone.
If you mix in with the demon forces on the border and invade, you won't be individually marked and hunted down, and it will be easier to retreat to the demon territory to save your life.
Thinking of this, Wei Feng immediately took Ren Qianqian and Li Yuanzhao and ran after them, wanting to see the outcome of the battle with his own eyes.
With him by his side, if the situation turns bad, he can retreat in time to protect himself.
At the same time, as Li Hao himself took action, the scope of his control of objects was also expanding, and the great monsters in the Immortal Ascension Realm were killed one by one before they could escape from the battlefield.
"Why is his imperial object so far away!!"
A big demon whose body shrank into a small ball of black mist heard the roar of the wind coming from behind, with deep despair in its eyes.
puff!
The sword light passed by and defeated the black mist.
As all the eight great monsters in the Immortal Ascension Realm were killed, Li Hao used his flying sword to turn around and kill the wave of monsters.
The sword light was like a needle threading through the tide of monsters, blood was constantly splattering, and these monsters were harvested crazily.
The originally menacing monster tide was suddenly reduced to a tragic sea of blood and countless corpses, with the rest fleeing and scattering.
Seeing this situation, the guard on the top of the city immediately called to others to pursue them.
Liu Shunqing and the Qi family also led their disciples and rushed out to hunt down the monsters. This was a rare opportunity to make achievements.
In just half a stick of incense, the demonic tide dissipated.
Looking at the corpses of monsters everywhere under the city head, as well as the most conspicuous red dragon corpse that was chopped into three pieces, many city defenders felt like they were in a dream. He was so desperate that he even wrote a suicide note and threw it in the military camp tent, but in the end he succeeded in defending the city.
Monsters attacking the city?
Under the attack of the flying sword, it was like a farce, brewing with great momentum, but ending hastily.
The demonic clouds hovering in the north, with the death of Taoist Red Eyebrows and the sudden deaths of other great demons in the Immortal Ascension Realm, have long since disintegrated, and the sky and earth have become clear again.
On top of the city, many soldiers raised their hands and cheered.
When Yue Shuhong rushed over, he only saw the scattered demon group and couldn't help but be stunned.
For twenty years, I worked hard with monsters and worked hard, but in the end... I was defeated by that young man with one sword?
While his mood was agitated, there was also an unspeakable sadness and bitterness.
He went around asking for visits and begging for mercy, but nothing came of it.
What is the meaning of all these years of humiliation and compromise?
Only strength can solve all obstacles, and he doesn’t understand this.
However, after being transferred here and being burdened with official duties, how much free time do I have to practice?
He was speechless and choked, looking up to the sky and letting out a long sigh.
The demon tide is over. Based on the number of casualties among these demons, no demons will dare to invade Cangyu City in the next few decades.
So, what about yourself?
He smiled bitterly, then gathered his mood and walked towards Li Hao.
"Master Li, I am so shameless, and on behalf of all the people of Cangyu City, thank you for your rescue!"
Yue Shuhong looked solemn, folded his hands, looked solemnly, and bowed long to Li Hao.
Li Hao raised his hand and made a move, and the flying sword from the sky flew like clouds and fell into his palm.
Looking at the city guard beside him, this middle-aged man's face was dark and rough, with signs of weathering.
"It's just a matter of convenience, no need to be polite."
Li Hao said calmly.
There was a trace of bitterness on Yue Shuhong's lips, and he immediately said: "I will report to the court the matter of me colluding with monsters and being in company with monsters. In addition, I will also report the role of Young Master Li in defending the city. As all the soldiers here can testify, the young master’s contribution will definitely be great.”
"What a credit, it's a small thing."
Li Hao shook his head slightly and didn't care.
Seeing Li Hao's indifferent and casual look, Yue Shuhong was slightly startled. He could see that the young man's eyes were clear and he did not seem to be humble and false.
However, it doesn't matter whether he is humble or not. As he said, this contribution is too great and no one can cover it up.
You know, in normal times, it would be extremely difficult to make meritorious deeds.
Even in a war situation, it is very difficult to achieve great achievements. The most common ways are to trap the enemy, ascend first, capture the flag, and kill the general.
In addition, there are captures, total annihilations, etc.
The first two kinds of being trapped in battle and ascending first are second-class meritorious deeds. According to Dayu's reward law, one can be awarded a second-class knighthood.
Capturing the flag and killing generals are first-class merits, which are more difficult to obtain, and are rewarded with third-level nobility.
Dayu's title is divided into knight, viscount, earl, marquis and duke!
Beyond the Duke is the most prestigious Divine Lord.
The ancestors of the five great divine generals were all divine nobles. They accompanied the late emperor on his expeditions and established the Yu Dynasty. They made great achievements that have been passed down for thousands of years.
Except for the divine knight, all other titles are divided into three levels. If you can achieve the first-class merit, you will directly become the first-class knight.
If it is a second-class meritorious service, it is a second-class knight.
If you are a knight yourself, if you perform one more first-class meritorious service, or three second-class meritorious services, you can be promoted to a viscount, and you will be rewarded with good fields and land, which is equivalent to a landowning aristocracy.
If you are a count, you can also get a fief!
Contributions are hard to achieve, but today Li Hao relied on his own efforts to protect the people in the city. This kind of merit has exceeded first-class merit.
Yue Shuhong didn't bother to think too much about how to liquidate the matter. He would just leave it to the court, and he would probably be at least a third-class viscount.
