Seeing this, Situ Long also breathed a sigh of relief, but in the next moment, his fierce sword qi suddenly slashed through his neck.
The sword light suddenly sounded, and in the shocked eyes of everyone, its sword qi instantly cut off Situ Long's head!
The pillar of blood rose into the sky, and its head was also thrown up, and the blood that shot out was bounced away with qi before it touched the placket of Ye Chen's clothes!
A headless corpse fell feebly from the void and finally slammed to the ground, its splatters of blood staining the entire stone path red.
Looking at the unrecognizable corpse, everyone couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and their faces were slightly pale! In just the blink of an eye, Situ Long turned into a cold corpse! However, what was surprising was that the black-robed young man in front of him actually killed Situ Long in front of Liu Ziya, which was undoubtedly a slap in the face in public!
Liu Ziya also looked at the bloody corpse on the ground with a dull expression, and there was disbelief in his eyes!
True Qi emerged from Ye Chen's palm, and not a trace of blood was stained, but under Ye Chen's deliberate action, most of the blood was sprinkled onto the Qilin Sword.
The left hand was raised slightly, and he shook it in the void at will, and the abandoned head fell lightly into Ye Chen's hand, Ye Chen held Situ Long's head in one hand, glanced at Liu Ziya calmly, and then turned around and left.
"Stop!" At the moment when Ye Chen turned around, a crazy furious voice suddenly sounded behind Ye Chen, and a cold momentum erupted from Liu Ziya's body, and he looked at Ye Chen with a gloomy expression.
In this cold momentum, Ye Chen felt Liu Ziya's murderous aura, in this regard, Ye Chen shook his head slightly, and said lightly: "Something?"
"Slaughtering innocent people in public, and now killing others in front of me! You have broken the laws of the Empire! Now I am arresting you as the general of the Western Pavilion!" Liu Ziya's figure also slowly floated up from the back of the wind horse, for the strong people in the past to kill people in public, he used to turn a blind eye, however, the person who died today is his old friend, if it wasn't for Situ Long sacrificing his life to save him, then there would be no him today, therefore, Liu Ziya's killing intent became stronger and stronger, and his voice became extremely cold: "Arrest this person in front of you immediately!"
The cheers were as loud as thunder, and the city guards who came with Liu Ziya this time were all regular troops, all carrying bows and crossbows used by the army.
Hundreds of strings suddenly sounded, and hundreds of rather fierce breaths erupted out of these city guards, the figures flickered, and the city guards scattered around, pulling out the bowstring behind them, and facing Ye Chen with full strings.
Under the starlight, these arrows glowing with cold light were so dazzling, these arrows were specially made by the Empire, and they were far more powerful than those used by the families.
Locked by hundreds of breaths that were not very strong, Ye Chen believed that as long as he took half a step, then the arrows like rain would shoot towards him, but his face was still so plain!
His eyes swept past the city guards below, Ye Chen shook his head slightly, he firmly believed that when those arrows didn't touch him, he could easily dodge them!
"Does the empire have this law?" Turning around, Ye Chen looked at Liu Ziya with a blank look in his eyes, and an inexplicable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Hearing this, Liu Ziya's face turned ruthless, his aura tightly locked on Ye Chen, and he said coldly: "The laws of the empire clearly stipulate that it is a crime to kill people in the imperial capital, and his crimes are enough to arrest!"
Saying this, Liu Ziya's right hand suddenly poked out of his sleeve, and at the same time, his body shot out, his right hand grabbed Ye Chen's thin shoulder with terrifying strength, if he was caught by Liu Ziya, I am afraid that Ye Chen would be seriously injured at least, and everyone around was in an uproar! For a while, the atmosphere of the audience immediately tensed, and everyone in the audience was looking at Ye Chen, they wanted to see if the young man in front of them would be restrained?
Liu Ziya's right hand continued to enlarge in Ye Chen's pupils, looking at Liu Ziya's ever-expanding face, a trace of chill flashed in Ye Chen's eyes! The force contained in Liu Ziya's grasp was extremely terrifying, therefore, Ye Chen naturally would not be polite to him, his qi suddenly exploded around his body, and this burst of qi directly bounced Liu Ziya's right hand away, and a little bit of qi smashed Liu Ziya's chest.
Liu Ziya retreated a few steps backwards in the air, his eyes became more and more fierce, and he sneered: "Very good! First he killed someone, and now he is openly resisting arrest!"
Although the tone was extremely sharp, but Liu Ziya's eyes showed a trace of solemnity, in the short collision just now, he knew that the strength of the black-robed young man in front of him was unfathomable! In this regard, Liu Ziya's right hand hidden in the sleeve was in vain, and a flame candle burst out, and finally turned into an extremely dazzling purple light and rose into the sky.
Ye Chen always looked at Liu Ziya indifferently, and did not stop Liu Ziya's actions, and after a few breaths, Ye Chen said lightly: "Is it illegal to kill people in the imperial capital?"
"Naturally, your crime of slaughtering so many people is enough to go to prison!" Liu Ziya sneered, his aura tightly locked on Ye Chen, he knew that he might not be able to withstand Ye Chen, what he could do now was to drag Ye Chen down.
Hearing this, Ye Chen's face showed a look of sudden realization, and he said lightly: "It turns out that it is illegal to kill people in public in the imperial capital!"
"Since you know that it is illegal to kill people in the imperial capital, then you know the law and break the law!" Liu Ziya sneered, his voice became extremely cold, and in his senses, several strong breaths were leaning towards this side.
"Oh, since it is illegal to kill people, then why did they slaughter the children of my family and destroy my family's market, it should also be considered a crime!" his eyes narrowed slightly, Ye Chen looked at Liu Ziya and smiled lightly.
Even though he was surrounded by the city guards, Ye Chen was still so calm, and his calm expression made people secretly admire.
"Slaughter the children of your family and destroy your market!" His expression was slightly shocked, and a trace of doubt appeared on Liu Ziya's face, the young man in front of him was a member of the five great families in the imperial capital! If this young man was so powerful, even if he killed Situ Long, then that family would also keep it, old friend! When did you provoke this evil star, even so, Liu Ziya was still unwilling to say: " It is naturally a crime to massacre the children of the family in the imperial capital at will, and destroy the city, but what does this matter have to do with Situ Long, don't put the charge on him, and you don't need to find a reason for your murder!"
"Oh, according to your meaning, the children of my family and those innocent people who were killed died in vain!" Ye Chen chuckled, and in his senses, several rather powerful auras were rushing towards here.
"The Situ family, the Nangong family and the Dongfang family have long been united, and the main industry of the Imperial Sword family is the forging workshop, could it be that the young man in front of him is from the Xiao family?" Thinking of this, Liu Ziya couldn't help but say in a deep voice: "Dare to ask if Your Excellency is from the Xiao family!" At this moment, Liu Ziya couldn't help but use the honorific title again, but Ye Chen didn't know his intentions, shook his head slightly and said lightly: "No!"
Hearing this, Liu Ziya's face sank suddenly, since he was not one of the five great families of the imperial capital, then he had no scruples!
"Capture him!" Liu Ziya's right hand suddenly pulled out the big sword behind his back, its aura tightly locked Ye Chen, the sword shadow danced wildly, and its sword qi swept towards Ye Chen frantically.
Liu Ziya's attack was extremely sudden, but those city guards who had originally pulled the strings to the full strings had long been waiting for Liu Ziya's empty number, and the strings they pulled out were withdrawn one after another, and for a while, hundreds of arrows shot towards Ye Chen.
The arrows glowing with cold light shrouded towards Ye Chen like a net of a day, and Liu Ziya's wildly dancing sword qi also cut off Ye Chen's path around him!
In this regard, Ye Chen shook his head slightly, this level of sword qi was useless to him, his left hand casually pointed a few fingers forward, and its strange blood-colored flames slanted down, for a while, a strange blood-colored flame appeared in vain within a few meters around Ye Chen, and Ye Chen's entire body was also wrapped in blood-colored flames, it seemed that Ye Chen was like a god of fire, and his majesty could not be violated.
Its sword qi turned into nothingness under the blood-colored flames, and those arrows that shot with terrifying power were directly wrapped in blood-colored flames before they reached a few meters around Ye Chen, and they all turned into ashes and scattered all over the ground.
"Since the laws of the empire are determined, someone needs to enforce them, doesn't it? Since the public law officers don't enforce them, then it's up to me!" His flat voice floated out into the blood-colored flames, but his flat tone was filled with a cold killing intent, which made Liu Ziya's heart tremble!
