Chapter Six Hundred and Thirty Six – A Sudden Appearance (2/2)
If he knew that Sin Battalion was so powerful before, did he need to set up so many things?
His initial plan was to continuously weaken the Ming Bandits to give Sin Battalion a chance to carry out an ambush. That would create a short period of chaos. However, the fatal attack would be him leading all the general levels to charge straight into the core of the Ming Bandits and taking down their leader!
He even prepared to take the princesses and the leaders as hostages if Zhu Ke and the others did not agree.
Yet the changes of the battle completely was out of his expectations. The Sin Battalion led by Bie Han was unstoppable and beat the Ming Bandits into submission!
Zuo Mo grimaced inside. If he knew this before, wouldn’t everything have been resolved if he let Bie Han out?
Watching as the danger was resolved, Zuo Mo’s tense nerves unconsciously relaxed and he exhaled deeply.
But when he looked at the chaotic crowds, he sighed again.
Truthfully, he had purposefully left an opening in the battle formation belt he had set up because he knew, no matter how many people there were, these normal people who had never been trained could not stop the Ming Bandits.
Of his preparations, some were cruel, some were useless. Many people had died, but they had won in the end.
The majority were able to survive.
“Haha! Brother! I just knew that you could do it!” Lan Tian Long’s loud laugh came from behind him. The people behind him also couldn’t suppress the expression of happiness.
Zuo Mo turned around. He wanted to smile but wasn’t able to.
He didn’t feel any great sadness, but there wasn’t much joy neither.
Lan Tian Long darted forward to give Zuo Mo a big hug. The other people took turns to come forward and hug him.
Just as one of the people was preparing to hug him, the Anti Dragon Claw on Zuo Mo’s back suddenly shook and Zuo Mo was startled.
Almost at the same time, he felt a stirring of danger!
Without thinking, the [Reversed Stellar Revolution] on his hand was thrown forward as he darted back.
An extremely dark and cold black energy brushed past Zuo Mo’s chest from bottom to top. The dark and strange aura caused Zuo Mo’s hairs to stand on end.
The ambusher hadn’t expected that Zuo Mo could react so quickly after he had relaxed!
The two were very close and he had thought there would be no reason for him to miss at such a close distance. But the other had detected his intentions.
When his attack missed, and before he could escape, the [Reversed Stellar Revolution] appeared in from of him like a spray of sparks.
His expression changed. Could he not recognize the killing move that Xiao Mo Ge had used to defeat the [Peacock King Plume]?
But the two were too close, so close that he didn’t have any time to react!
Under his terrified gaze, the Reversed Stellar Revolution turned to sparks and landed on the assassin’s body. He didn’t even have the time to scream before he was burned into dust!
The sparks returned to Zuo Mo’s hand and became a slowly spinning star bracelet again.
Lan Tian Long and the others paled. This had occurred so suddenly. In a flash, the ambusher had been burned to dust!
“He is An Qi Gong, why would he try to assassinate you?” Lan Tian Long reacted and a hint of anger flashed through his eyes. An Qi Gong had clearly intermingled among them in order to take advantage of his relationship with Xiao Mo Ge. Someone had schemed against Old Long! Lan Tian Long suddenly lowered his voice and said, “Do you want me to go investigate?”
In that moment, Zuo Mo had been frightened but at this time, he quickly calmed down. He shook his head. “There’s no need.”
After a moment of thought, he said to Lan Tian Long, “Go find a few people and help maintain the order. Prevent people from taking advantage of the chaos.”
Lan Tian Long said heavily, “Alright! If Old Long finds the person responsible, I’ll make him wish for death!”
Finishing, he turned with a dark expression.

Bie Han narrowed his eyes and looked at the remaining three thousand Ming Bandits in front of him. Behind him, Sin Battalion was still harvesting the lives of the Ming Bandits at an astounding rate. A light flashed through his narrowed eyes. He was like a tiger that had been caged for a long time. The brief battle that had just finished could not satisfy him.
However, the Ming Bandits who had fled suddenly ran back in panic.
“Boss! Not good! Not good! Marshal Yu! Marshal Yu has come!”
Marshal Yu!
Marshal Yu!
This name which caused the Ming Bandits to panic caused cheers to rise among the crowd. Many people even cried from joy. The reputation of Marshal Yu was completely the opposite of the Ming Bandits. No matter what, Marshal Yu would not act against them.
Zhu Ke and the others also relaxed. Their families were on good terms with Marshal Yu and there would not be any problems to their own safety.
Only Princess Xia’ expression changed slightly and she looked worriedly at Zuo Mo.
Zuo Mo’s face suddenly darkened. The incoming forces were not an allies!
Murderousness flashed through Ceng Lian’er eyes. When it had been her crucial time of breakthrough, the people that Marshal Yu had sent tried to use her to threaten her father. There was a chance to settle accounts today!
Bie Han did not feel any fear. He was still hungry after the fight with the Ming Bandits. He gaze with narrowed eyes at the horizon, fighting spirit rampaging through his body!
Don’t be too weak!
