An Wenzhen was not able to keep his ferocity for long, because soon after, he heard the twanging of bows at his ear.
Not even the storm outside could block out those sharp whistles.
Thwishthwishthwish!
Hundreds of arrows, each carrying a powerful energy, converged on the building like a cloud of locusts. Boomboomboom! In a set of explosions, these arrows pierced through the walls, honeycombing it with holes.
”Ah!”
Miserable screams filled the air. The Hu had been putting all their focus on Wang Chong's party and had been caught completely off-guard by this sneak attack.
It was simply impossible to block these arrows as they burst through the walls. In a flash, more than half of the Hu had been either killed or injured by these arrows.
The archers that Wang Chong had brought were basically all master archers, and every one of their bows had been infused with destructive Stellar Energy. When that powerful energy pierced through the chests of the Hu, it sent them flying before nailing their bodies against the floor.
Although some of the more powerful Hu experts had Stellar Energy protecting their bodies that was able to knock away one or two arrows, the dense rain of arrows still broke through in the end. They managed to last for a few moments before their chests, and even heads, were shot through.
Blood gushed out, pooling into rivers and seeping through the floor below, frightening the Hu on the first floor.
”Damn it! Master archers! He actually brought master archers! Go! Quickly!”
An Wenzhen's complexion had gone ghastly pale.
If one added up the number of people in this gathering and the Hu experts of the capital they had invited on the first floor, they numbered more than a hundred, and all of them were at the True Martial realm and above.
They even had many experts who were on the brink of reaching the Profound Martial realm.
The Hu had fierce personalities and were extremely aggressive, and all of them were experts who had engaged in real combat. An Wenzhen had originally believed that just this force alone would have been enough for them to boldly stride across the capital.
He had not expected to run into this mysterious and ferocious youth.
An Wenzhen was well aware that a master archer was not someone an average person could run into, and not even a great clan could easily gain access to one.
The youth before him was undoubtedly no ordinary person.
More importantly, this youth had outnumbered them!
”Hahaha, do you think you can leave?”
Right after he had given the order to run, right after the first rain of arrows, someone outside Drunken Sparrow restaurant began to roar with laughter and jeer in the Hu tongue. This laughter was like thunder and blended together with the wind and rain. Although the speaker was speaking in Hu, they spoke flawlessly. It was the Invincible Great General, Li Siye.
Li Siye's aspirations had been on the Western Regions, for which he had studied the Hu language. The conversations of those Hu were no secret in his ears.
Boom!
With a heaven-shaking explosion, a burly figure rammed through the wall of Drunken Sparrow restaurant, leaving a man-shaped hole in the southeast wall.
On his back was a giant Wootz Steel sword, even taller than a normal adult man.
Hum! At almost the same moment, Li Siye struck.
Rumble! In an instant, a numbing energy suddenly appeared in everyone's perception. The sky dimmed and the entire restaurant was plunged into darkness. Soon after, a massive saber energy, thirty zhang long, vast and resplendent like a god and demon, slashed down from the heavens.
The large Drunken Sparrow restaurant seemed to be made of paper as this monstrous energy cleaved it in two. This saber not only cut through the entire restaurant, it also hacked at all the Hu on the second floor.
The screams and the shattering of floorboards, chairs, and tables blended into one.
An Wenzhen had been standing in the direction of this saber energy, and he was sent flying, blood splattering everywhere.
”A Profound Martial realm expert!” An Wenzhen screamed, terror in his heart.
The An Clan was originally a Turkic clan of generals with a great store of knowledge. However, they had been excluded and massacred by the other Turkic clans, causing them to join the Great Tang.
Even so, the An Clan continued its tradition of martial arts.
This fact was evident from An Wenzhen's True Martial Tier 9 cultivation. This cultivation level played an important part in his leading tonight's gathering.
Someone who could shatter his protective Stellar Energy and easily defeat him with one slash of a saber could only be a Profound Martial realm expert, and one at Tier 5 or above.
Just where did this youth come from?
An Wenzhen's mind was in a panic as he was sent flying, and only this one thought remained.
He could disregard that massive number of True Martial realm experts, but Profound Martial realm experts were all proud, and each one had a deep backing and would not easily serve another.
No normal clan could gain the servitude of a Profound Martial realm expert, nor could any ordinary faction.
But even now, An Wenzhen did not know when he had offended this person. Everything was like a bad dream, an unforeseen disaster.
Boom!
When they saw the strongest of their number, An Wenzhen, being sent flying by this single saber slash and the massive restaurant being chopped into two, the morale of the valiant Hu quickly crumbled.
”Run!”
In an instant, all the Hu experts still alive began to scatter, escaping through the rain.
