Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect

Chapter 372: Zhang San


The Six Gates' Left Supervisory thief catchers are experts by nature, even carrying nets for catching thieves with them. At this moment, four people, two nets, ropes in hand, they cast a wide net over the sky, enclosing from all directions, making it truly difficult to escape even with wings.

If you can't fly out, then fight your way out!

"Ascend!"

"Swish!"

The Sky Soaring Treasure Sword is extremely sharp. With two swift strokes, the sword light gathered into a mass, and in the blink of an eye, a hole was cut through the net. However, the effect was indeed limited.

After all, the ones the Six Gates capture are those who resist desperately and the fierce bandits who fight to the end, many of whom rely on Divine Weapons to resist arrest. Therefore, the design of the thief-catching net from the start has excellent resilience and extensibility, with multiple embedded layers. Cutting through one layer still leaves another. It's designed to be loose outside and tight inside, even with hidden clasps. If you struggle and tear, several layers would entangle together instead, and it's not as if cutting a hole means you can easily escape.

Even though Huangfu Yi's sword light was extremely fast, slicing open a crack on the Great Dao in an instant, most of his body's torso was still trapped under the falling net. He could only struggle desperately to tear at the net, attempting to escape through the opening.

"Got him!"

"Tie him up tightly!"

"Don't let Zhang San get away!"

"Hyah! Hyah!"

Seeing this move immobilized 'Zhang San', the thief catchers immediately formed their practiced formations. Two continued to guard and patrol the outer circle, shooting crossbows and arrows to interfere with Huangfu Yi's attempts to cut the net.

The remaining four riders circled within the inner circle, pulling on the chains in their hands. Relying on superb riding skills, they crossed back and forth flexibly, moving quickly to swap positions. With the power of the horses, they layered and wrapped the person completely!

Hence, Huangfu Yi only managed to free a single sword, a hand, and half a shoulder from the net! Most of his torso was again entangled by the net! At this rate, he couldn't break free faster than they could set the net!

"Are you blind? I'm not Zhang San at all! If you keep pestering me, don't blame me for being rude!"

The situation was urgent, and Huangfu Yi shouted angrily, using Gang Fist desperately to tear. But the net was woven with steel wire, full of resilience and embedded with barbs, and wrapped around his body, it continuously rubbed and dug into his flesh, making it difficult to tear apart even with wild sword slashes. Moreover, he had to guard against the two remaining riders outside who might launch sneak attacks, a source of great anxiety.

"You dog thief Zhang San! Still dare to boast when death is upon you! Surrender now!"

Seeing that Huangfu Yi had an arm and sword outside, a constable from the outer circle immediately rode around from behind, raising a Meteor Flying Hammer! With a strike aimed straight at his spine, they sought to break his arm!

"Damn it!"

"Clang!"

Huangfu Yi twisted his waist! Almost snapped directly, avoiding the flying hammer mid-air! Suddenly, the sword light flashed beside him, and the hammer was sliced in half with a single stroke!

"The thief's treasure sword is formidable! Shoot arrows! Shoot arrows!"

The crowd yelled loudly, restraining with nets while shooting crossbows. Meanwhile, the second rider circling outside raised an iron shovel, maneuvering the horse to circle behind again, aiming at Huangfu Yi's lower back, ready to stab and cripple him!

"Ascend! Kill!"

Forced to the brink, Huangfu Yi shouted angrily, extending his ape-like arm, the treasure sword flashed, and with a bloody slice!

The knight didn't expect the treasure sword could actually fly! Caught off guard, they were sealed at the throat with a single sword, the head severed! With the sword wind howling, a crimson fountain of blood erupted skyward!

"Arrest Officer!"

"Dog thief!"

"Die!!"

Seeing their companion die so gruesomely, the constables cried out angrily and sorrowfully, ferociously throwing darts and flying knives toward his head!

"Brought it on yourself!"

Alright, this time Huangfu Yi was truly enraged.

His nature wasn't mild and kind at all. Instead, he was rather stubborn and proud, with quite a temper. After all, he was by no means different from any good young man, an animal dominated by male hormones, who wouldn't have a temper? Especially considering now, with a lethal weapon in hand, murderous intent naturally arose. How could there be any reason to surrender and let others slaughter him?

But he had received aristocratic education from the Huangfu family since childhood, nurtured by the guard's tradition. He always considered it his duty to protect the weak and safeguard the world.

And the Northern icy lands were places where, for those not of my kind, their hearts must be different. Noble families, common folk, everyone had to unite against the enemy to survive, accustomed to reasoning, seeking common ground while shelving differences, and cooperation.

Hence, seeing these constables charge on horses, Huangfu Yi thought they'd mistaken him for someone else. If he spoke to them properly, perhaps they could clarify the misunderstanding. That's why he stood still without running, avoiding conflict escalation leading to further conflict.

Well, it really showed that being kind is being taken advantage of, being a nice horse means being ridden! Showed them face, and they stamped on it, right?

Reflecting upon his experiences since arriving in the Central Plains, he encountered countless of these types who didn't distinguish justice from injustice, immediately attacking fiercely without mercy. It caused him several arduous experiences, keeping his injuries unhealed. It was truly frustrating! With murderous intent now awakened, to avoid endless future troubles, he couldn't leave witnesses behind!

"Ascend! Kill them all!!"

"Buzz!"

The flying sword hummed, echoing! Immediately it spun back around, thrown right into the fray! Sword light swept into a crescent arc, slashing at the heads and legs of surrounding riders entangling with the net! Despite their desperate attempts to bend, crouch, and dodge, it was futile!

After all, Huangfu Yi had several fortuitous encounters recently, breaking through life and death, the speed and power of his sword growing visibly! Despite being tangled in the net, unable to break free momentarily, he simply infused his entire sword energy into the sword tip! At the same time, drawing from newly learned aspects of the Five Immortals Sword Technique, involving sword-controlling flying gu, he forcibly used his Divine Sense to guide the sword blade towards the throats of the thieves!
