Chapter 259 Lu Xiao produced a famous sword, Siming!
"Old sir, wanna go watch the show?"
Lu Xiao will definitely be present at the execution of this group of rebels.
Not only did he want to witness the culprits who wreaked havoc in the Jianghuai region be brought to justice, but more importantly, he wanted to receive the system rewards.
This is crucial for future planning and cannot be taken lightly.
"Let's go."
Without saying a word, Yang Lin stood up, stroked his beard, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes.
If you want to go see the excitement, then you definitely have to go.
Since I'm just killing time anyway, I might as well watch these traitors' ugly behavior before they die.
"I'm going too!"
Yuwen Chenglong quickly followed, scurrying along excitedly.
This is a spectacle you shouldn't miss; once you start watching, you'll want to keep watching.
He's been feeling down lately, so watching someone chop off a head is a good way to cheer himself up.
Then, the group appeared at the execution ground outside the city.
Du Fuwei, Li Zitong, and others were escorted here to reunite with their families who had been arrested and brought to justice.
The whole family, men and women, young and old, were crying and wailing, in complete chaos.
"Have you seen Cheng Yaojin? Have you seen him in the prison cell?"
Du Fuwei, with his hands bound and gagged, immediately asked Li Zitong, who was also being escorted there, after seeing him.
"I didn't see it."
Li Zitong's face was full of sorrow, and his complexion was ashen, as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
His son-in-law Wu Yunzhao is dead, his most trusted general is dead, and his family members have been arrested; they are all here.
Now, it seems a great calamity is about to befall them, and the whole family is on their way.
So, how could he have the time to care whether other people are dead or alive?
"That fat guy really did run away! Too late for regrets!"
Du Fuwei looked regretful, sighed to the sky, and was so remorseful that he felt like his guts were turning green.
From the beginning, he planned to run away with Cheng Yaojin; following this clever fat man was sure to be the right thing to do.
As they ran, Cheng Yaojin fell behind and disappeared without a trace.
He thought Cheng Yaojin had been caught up by government troops and was likely in grave danger.
In retrospect, Cheng Yaojin was clever; he deliberately fell behind, thus escaping disaster and surviving perfectly well.
Those foolish people who run forward will be beheaded.
But it's good that the fat guy is clever and capable.
After fleeing, they will surely be able to gather a force to fight against the imperial court once again.
Thinking of this, Du Fuwei felt relieved, and even a strange smile appeared on his face.
Although these people are dead, their resistance against the imperial court and their determination to resist the imperial court will not dissipate!
Cheng Yaojin will avenge them!
"Your Highness, everyone has arrived."
Zhao Chong bowed and reported, pointing to the rebels and their families kneeling on the ground.
"Is that all?"
Lu Xiao looked around and frowned slightly.
Only Du Fuwei and Li Zitong had names and titles of kings.
The remaining few were all nobodies who had joined the commotion; killing them would be a waste of effort, and there probably wouldn't be any reward.
"Yes, the rest of them all ran away in the chaos and their whereabouts are unknown."
Upon seeing this, Li Jing couldn't help but offer an explanation.
That battle was too chaotic; over 800,000 people were scattered and fled, too many of whom could not be captured.
"Haha, good job, you ran well!"
Upon hearing Li Jing's words, Du Fuwei immediately burst into laughter, laughing so hard that he was doubled over and tears streamed down his face.
"Lu Xiao! Our alliance leader Cheng Yaojin will avenge me, you just wait!"
Just as he thought!
Cheng Yaojin was incredibly clever and incredibly lucky; he escaped being captured by the government troops!
As long as Cheng Yaojin is still alive, they have hope!
"Is that so?" Lu Xiao chuckled, a slight smile playing on his lips. "I'm just waiting for him to come and avenge you."
This Cheng Yaojin is indeed a master of deception; he completely fooled Du Fuwei, who was still hoping for him even on his deathbed.
That's fine, that's good.
"Your Highness, shall we begin the slaughter?"
Yuwen Chenglong snatched the broadsword from the executioner beside him, eager to try it out, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He has been very unhappy these days, and nothing has gone his way.
All I can do is kill a few people to feel better and vent my frustration.
"Slay him."
Lu Xiao waved his hand, his tone indifferent.
"Snap! Snap! Snap!"
A series of crisp sounds rang out on the execution ground.
One head after another rolled to the ground, blood gushing out and staining the ground beneath their feet.
"Your turn!"
Yuwen Chenglong walked up to Du Fuwei, grinning maliciously as he raised his broadsword, the blade gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
"Cheng Yaojin will avenge me!"
Du Fuwei stared intently at Yuwen Chenglong, his eyes wide, and spoke each word clearly.
"Snap!"
As the blade flashed, Du Fuwei's voice abruptly ceased, and his head fell to the ground, rolling far away.
At the same time, the long-lost system notification sound rang in Lü Xiao's mind, crisp and pleasant.
[Ding! By killing King Du Fuwei of Chu, the host has gained a special ability.]
With the assistance of the True Lord of Fate, one can withstand a fatal attack!
"what?"
Upon hearing the reward, Lü Xiao was immediately stunned, his pupils contracting slightly.
This is simply unbeatable!
Enduring a deadly attack is like having an extra life!
In the future, he will be fearless on the battlefield, able to charge straight in, to the most dangerous places.
When you reach a desperate situation, there's no need to hide anything; just tough it out.
Then the second phase is triggered, and I'm fully revived, ready to launch a counterattack!
"Zilie, what's wrong?"
Seeing that Lü Xiao suddenly froze, standing motionless with a blank stare, Yang Lin couldn't help but ask with concern.
"It's nothing, it's nothing." Lu Xiao realized what was happening and an uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.
He turned around and shouted at the stunned Yuwen Chenglong, "What are you doing, chopping? Stop staring!"
"what?"
Yuwen Chenglong was momentarily stunned and looked completely bewildered. What was he talking about?
"Chop! Chop!"
Lu Xiao pointed at Li Zitong, who was kneeling on the ground, and said urgently.
He was eager to know what kind of incredible power he would gain after killing Li Zitong.
"good!"
Although Yuwen Chenglong didn't understand why, he naturally obeyed the prince's order.
He stopped because Lü Xiao suddenly froze and he didn't understand what he meant.
Otherwise, he would have chopped Li Zitong up long ago.
"Die!"
The next moment, a flash of light appeared, and Li Zitong's head was chopped off by Yuwen Chenglong, rolling to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the system's delightful notification sound rang in Lü Xiao's mind once again.
[Ding! By killing Phoenix King Li Zitong, the host has gained special privileges.]
By creating the Lü Family Generals, anyone who officially joins the Lü Family Generals will receive a 25% strength boost from the host!
Limited spots available, please choose carefully!
This time, Lü Xiao wasn't stunned; he was excited, ecstatic, and bursting with uncontrollable joy!
It's like getting exactly what you need!
Yuwen Chenglong, that persistent pest, has been bothering him for a long time, constantly clamoring to become stronger and more powerful. He's getting annoyed to the point of exhaustion.
