The so-called five-clawed golden dragon actually did not exist.
It seemed that Mo Xiu and Yan Ran stepped on the five-clawed golden dragon to kill the Quartet, but in fact, this was the effect of Mountain and River Order.
If there was no order from the Mountains and River Order, don't even think about walking around in the Yan Kingdom in a short time, let alone killing all the people who were sent by Yan Wuji to various places in the Yan Kingdom.
The golden light dimmed until it disappeared before the figures of Mo Xiu and Yan Ran appeared.
The two were still in the Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds, and the Mountain and River Order was still in Mo Xiu's hands as if what they had just seen and heard was just an illusion.
Yan Ran naturally knew that it was not an illusion, but it was the first time to experience such a miraculous thing that there was still some aftertaste at this time.
Mo Xiu didn't take it seriously but silently handed over the Mountain and River Order to Yan Ran.
This was something refined by Yan Ran's ancestors, it was the artifact of Yan Kingdom, so it must be in the blood of Yan's royal family to use it, so naturally, it must be returned to Yan Ran.
Besides, this thing was a bit tasteless to Mo Xiu, he was not too covetous.
Yan Ran didn't think much about it. He put the Mountain and River Order away and immediately said, "We just announced the news of Yan Wuji's death in such a high-profile way. It is estimated that Yan has become a mess now."
"Well, it's my intention to make Yan all mess up, so that all Yan Wuji's forces will surface so that we can catch them all in one go."
As Mo Xiu said, he flew down from the high platform and came to Wu Qingshan and other warriors who were caught in the effect of the Great Sleeping Curse.
Under the shroud of Divine Consciousness and after a few spells, Wu Qingshan and other cultivators woke up one after another.
Before being hit by the cavalry, most of the warriors were injured to varying degrees, but because Mo Xiu made the move in time, none of the 100 warriors he brought were beheaded.
Seeing Yan Wuji's army still sleeping on the ground, Wu Qingshan and other warriors were shocked.
Knowing that both Chen Xiaoyang and Yan Wuji were killed, everyone was even more shocked, but after the shock, they were more delighted.
Yan Wuji and Chen Xiaoyang died, and Yan Wuji's army was like a dragon without a head, and a dragon without a head was no different from a sleeping fish on a cutting board to them, so wasn't this their turn to play heart content?
Originally, all these people joined the battle with the determination to die, but now they discovered that everyone could go back alive. How could they not be happy?
Once they went back alive, they were all rare Spirit Vessel Realm masters in the Yan Kingdom, wouldn't they be developed?
The more they thought about it, the more pleasant they were, so they disregarded their injuries and cheered.
When the cheers fell, Mo Xiu said, "It's too early to be happy. I have to wait to gather Yan Wuji's army here, and then lead the army back to Yan Capital, and uproot all Yan Wuji's power."
Everyone calmed down, but even if they felt a long way to go, they didn't take it seriously. After all, they even survived the previous battles, so in comparison, the next task was fairly easy.
The sleeping army of Yan Wuji in the Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds was nearly 120,000. Mo Xiu awakened in batches, told them that Yan Wuji had died, and asked them to be loyal. Then they would be dispersed and re-organized.
There were many soldiers who were still loyal to Yan Wuji, and were unwilling to accept the inclusion. Regarding this, Mo Xiu gave an order to kill them all, not leaving one.
There were also people who pretended to be willing to accept the inclusion, but in fact, they were planning secretly, but Mo Xiu was born with a pair of Mystic Demon Eyes, no matter how perfect the lies were, it could not deceive him, for those people, Mo Xiu was also infallible.
Nearly 120,000 soldiers, after being incorporated, only 70,000 remain.
After that, Mo Xiu took out an array flag, stopped the barrier, and together with Yan Ran, led the 70,000 army back to Yan Capital.
...
Yan Capital.
The defensive array was still in operation, and no one could easily get in and out.
However, as Yan Ran said, after learning of Yan Wuji's death, the whole Yan had become a mess.
Yan Wuji's power roughly split into three factions. One faction advocated surrendering to Mo Xiu and Yan Ran in exchange for a ray of life, one faction advocated finding a place to hide, and the other faction believed that it should continue to confront Mo Xiu.
Of course, there were still many people who didn't belong to the three major factions. They had no hope of being alive, so they either sat in a daze, or burned and looted in Yan Capital, preparing to have a happy life before dying.
In order for Mo Xiu and Yan Ran to accept their surrender, the main surrendered faction sent people out one after another to deal with those who did evil everywhere, and at the same time fought against the main war faction in various places.
Some of those people who advocated finding a place to hide were hiding in Yan Capital, so it was inevitable that they would encounter people from other factions and people who did evil everywhere. It was another scuffle with each other.
Another group of people planned to leave Yan Capital and hide in other places, but the people who controlled the major gates belonged to the main surrendered faction, so it was also a fierce battle.
The chaos not only involved Yan Wuji's forces. The major families in Yan Capital were dispatched one after another. Borrowing the messy state of this turmoil, those people started their revenge if they had, plunder if they could, or stab behind if they must. This not only did not stop the chaos, but instead aggravated the chaos in Yan Capital.
There were also many people who suffered in this turmoil, either ordinary people in Yan Capital, or a family, clan, or sect with limited strength.
Countless people died tragically, blood ran into rivers in their homes, money and treasures in countless people's homes were looted, and many beautiful women in their homes were defiled.
There were places where the turmoil did not affect, it was not the imperial palace but the Five Carapace District where the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce forces were located and the Alchemy League's residence.
There was a large defensive array in the Five Carapace District. Without Mo Xiu's consent, no one could get in and out, and naturally, it would not be passively affected.
As for the Alchemy League's residence, no force had the courage to attack the Alchemy League, otherwise, the Alchemy League would destroy them all without waiting for Mo Xiu to lead the army to kill them.
Because the people who controlled the city gate were the people of the main surrendered faction, they were naturally the ones who controlled the big array. Therefore, when Mo Xiu and Yan Ran led the 70,000 army back to Yan Capital, they didn't even need to deliberately destroy the entire Yan Capital. The defense array easily entered Yan Capital.
Granted that Yan Ran, Wu Qingshan, and others had all experienced the turmoil when Yan Wuji usurped the throne, but after learning about the turmoil in Yan Capital, they were still startled.
As the person who brought out the chaos, Mo Xiu seemed very calm, even if countless people were about to break their families, even if the whole Yan was bloody, he still regarded it as a normal thing.
But since he led the army back, he didn't have any reason to sit back and watch, so he gave an order, "The whole army, listen to my order! The troublemakers will be killed with no mercy! Yan Wuji's minions must be killed mercilessly!"
Naturally, Yan Wuji's minions did not include the main surrendered factions, but other than that, they belonged to the target of 'must be killed mercilessly'. As for the troublemakers, it included not only the self-willing and depraved people in Yan Wuji's forces, but also those forces that wanted to profit from the turmoil.
The 70,000 soldiers were naturally led by Wu Qingshan, the former Forbidden Army Commander. After receiving the order, he immediately led the army into action, cooperating with the main surrendered faction of Yan Wuji's former forces, and started the slaughter in Yan Capital.
Although there was only an army of 70,000, these 70,000 people were specially trained by Yan Wuji using special secret methods. Everyone was very a very difficult opponent, not to mention that there were also one hundred Spirit Vessel Realm cultivators that Mo Xiu brought out from the Rainbow Chamber of Commerce in the 70,000 army.
The original main faction could only reluctantly confront the people of other factions. After Wu Qingshan led an army of 70,000 to join, it swept all the way, and wherever it passed, there was a sea of blood.
...
When Wu Qingshan led an army of 70,000 to kill, Mo Xiu took Yan Ran and flew towards the palace.
Yan Wuji was dead, the next thing to do was to support Yan Ran to the throne and completely control the entire Yan Kingdom.
To control the Yan Kingdom, he must first control the palace.
Inside the palace, there should be many concubines and children of Yan Wuji, but regarding those people, Mo Xiu was not the one to deal with them at all. When Wu Qingshan solved the people outside and led the army into the palace, he would naturally fight against all Yan Wuji's forces inside the palace.
The people who really needed Mo Xiu to deal with were those of the Seraphic Sword Sect who were in the palace of Yan Kingdom. After all, there were quite a few people who were in the palace of Yan Kingdom. Among them, there were many experts in the Spirit Vessel Realm. Those who went to the Butchering Peak Hunting Grounds before were only one Chen Xiaoyang.
The Yan Kingdom's Imperial Palace was also in chaos at first, but after the people of the Seraphic Sword Sect took action to suppress it, order was quickly restored.
Mo Xiu flew into the palace with Yan Ran and easily found the people of the Seraphic Sword Sect.
None of the members of the Seraphic Sword Sect escaped. Instead, they gathered together, looking like they wanted to 'face death with equanimity'. This was a bit beyond Mo Xiu's expectation. He didn't know if these people were sure to deal with him or were really not afraid of death.
Closed his eyes and deduced it for a while, Mo Xiu soon understood, and the look on his face immediately became a little weird.
At this time, a female disciple of the Seraphic Sword Sect came out and said, "Mo Xiu, is Senior Brother Chen already dead in your hands?"
"Senior Brother Chen" naturally referred to Chen Xiaoyang.
Mo Xiu nodded and admitted, "So?"
The disciples of the Seraphic Sword Sect suddenly looked sad, but they did not show obvious anger.
After a while, the female disciple said, "I understand, you won."
"..."
Mo Xiu didn't say a word, just looked at the female disciple and waited for the following.
Soon, the female disciple continued, "The reason why we didn't leave was that we were waiting for you and wanted to confirm to you Brother Chen's situation personally. Now that the news of Brother Chen's death has been confirmed, we should also leave. From now on, the Yan Kingdom will be your Yan Kingdom, and we members of the Seraphic Sword Sect will never step into the Yan Kingdom again."
"..."
Mo Xiu remained silent.
Upon seeing this, the female disciple frowned, "What? Do you want to stop us from leaving? Will you kill us to death?"
Hearing this, Mo Xiu said, "I want to let you go, but are you sure that your Seraphic Sword Sect people will not step into the Yan Kingdom again?"
"What do you mean? Are you suspicious of us?" the female disciple's face suddenly became a little ugly.
