Chapter 619 Recapture

"Sword beast egg?"

Looking at the box Zhang Yun handed over, Ye Fan was stunned: "Why did you give it to me?"

"Shadow Saint likes you very much." Zhang Yun replied, sighing: "You practice the Sword Saint technique, and you are even more decisive. He has always wanted you to be his student. He has said many times that you are the best person to use the sword. Beast man."

"This sword beast egg is the one he promised you. Although you later went to the Central Military City, he still kept this sword beast egg for you. Later, he was executed and this sword beast egg was given to you. I, I used some tricks to hide it until now.”

"This." Hearing this, Ye Fan was slightly touched. Looking at the sword beast egg, he suddenly remembered something and said to the person next to him: "Go and see that Senior Shadow Saint has a descendant named Shadow Liu. He is here. Not in jail."

"Shadow Liu was killed by the rebels together with Shadow Saint." Zhang Yun shook his head and thrust the box into Ye Fan's hand: "Sword beasts are extremely unique existences, and Shadow Saint is unwilling to hand over the method of cultivating sword beasts. To the rebels, it was decided to take the secret to the grave and never circulate it again.”

"Shadow Saint has been pursuing the way of swords all his life, but he has finally reached the king level. This sword beast is the last one in the world. Without the method of cultivation, there will be no next one. I hope you can use this last sword beast to master the way of swordsmanship." Going further up the mountain can be regarded as fulfilling some of his long-cherished wishes.”

"I understand." Hearing this, even Ye Fan was inevitably moved. He took the box and put it away solemnly, "I will definitely let this sword beast have the light it deserves."

"You have outstanding talent. I believe you can make this sword beast display its true glory." Zhang Yun nodded, sighed again, and passed by Ye Fan.

"Senior Zhang Yun, do you really not want to consider returning to Nanchuan with me?" At this point, Ye Fan found it difficult to persuade him to stay: "After this time, Kyoto will become even more desolate, and staying here will probably become even more difficult.

"I was originally a fool. I was favored by the imperial court and served as the principal in Kyoto for thirty years. I have already devoted my heart to this." Zhang Yun replied with a persistent tone: "The ancients said that a favor earned by fighting for rice will be repaid with ten pieces of gold."

"The imperial court is broken and the capital is in ruins, but my, Zhang Yun's heart of repaying my kindness will never be destroyed."

"Alas." It was an almost expected answer. Ye Fan sighed, and finally, he saluted Zhang Yun and said goodbye.

"If that's the case, then we won't do anything to retain him. Senior Zhang Yun, please take care of yourself."

"The same goes for you." Zhang Yun cupped his hands and said, "You have great ambitions. Although we are on different paths, I hope you can achieve what you want in your heart."

"Farewell."

Snap. Snap.

After saying that, Zhang Yun walked along the passage of the prison. He was already considered old, and he had suffered for such a long time. He walked alone, looking staggering and weak, but his footsteps were extremely steady, and every step fell on the ground. There were firm sounds from all over the ground.

Ye Fan stood behind, watching Zhang Yunyuan quietly, his heart swaying uncontrollably, but in the end, he could only wave his hands and turn around.

"Punishment Army, listen to my order! Clear out all the people in the city who have defected to the rebels. Anyone who helps the thieves and harms them, regardless of merchants, aristocratic families or officials, will be executed on the spot!"

…

"This kid, when he's not busy sharing benefits, he's busy killing people in the city."

Outside the city, the spoils were divided quickly. Millions of troops entered the city. It didn't take much time, and they had already moved everything they could in Kyoto.

The North King and the others had obviously found a way to the human race's treasure house, and the harvest was extremely rich. At this time, observing from the sky, they found that Ye Fan's Execution Army was clearing out everywhere, and they couldn't help but be puzzled.

"Do those aristocratic families have a grudge against him, and they will be killed by him wherever they go?" King Ming was particularly puzzled, especially when he saw Ye Fan leading someone into the Ji family again: "I don't know if the Ji family has offended him. What? I heard that when he was in Kyoto, he led people to raid the Ji family’s home and moved all the doors away. "

"It's only been a few months and he's here again."

"I think it's more than just hatred." The King of the North has been in contact with Ye Fan a lot, and seems to have more thoughts: "He seems to just hate these aristocratic families who exploit the common people for speculation, and towards those big families who abide by the rules, Still pretty good.”

"So he is still a wise master?" King Ming smiled slightly, obviously not paying much attention to the Northland King's remarks, "This kid doesn't look like a person who knows how to govern. He kills at every turn."

"If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and the perpetrators will be killed endlessly. Such killings will only make them more cautious."

"For these people, I only need to grasp their weak points and use some inducements. Not only do I not have to kill them, but I can also use them to my advantage."

"That's because as long as he is here, everyone obeys him." Ming Wang shook his head, "Everyone only obeys him, but they don't agree with each other. If one day he is not here, Nanchuan will fall apart in the blink of an eye."

"The Nanchuan you said is almost useless." The King of the North said.

"I never thought Nanchuan was in much danger." King Ming waved his hand and was about to continue saying something when an angry voice sounded.

"You two bastards have moved all the human treasure trove!"

"I came all the way here, and you didn't even leave me a mouthful of soup?"

"That's unreasonable!"

The voice of a village woman scolding made both Ming King and Beidi King stunned. When they saw that the person coming was Queen Zhao, they couldn't help but look at each other and each showed a wry smile.

Just divide the spoils. There are so many people here, and if you speak so loudly, how can you put everyone's face on it?

"This King Zhao, without the military advisor, is simply a brainless lunatic." The King of the North muttered in a low voice. Seeing King Zhao approaching, he had to change his expression and smiled.

"King Zhao is joking. We don't know anything about the human race's treasure house, so how can we just talk about it? King Ming, are you right?"

"Ah, yes, yes, yes." Ming Wang responded, and the two of them sang in harmony.

"The King of the North and I are still talking about why the human race's treasure house is empty, and we are thinking about asking King Zhao."

…

"Ye Fan, there are more than seventy people willing to follow us back to Nanchuan."

After a night of tension, the next day, Ye Mou, who had finished handling the matter, counted up the list of characters and reported to Ye Fan.

"Basically all the generals are willing to follow, and only a few want to stay in Kyoto."

"Everyone has his own ambitions, just keep what you want." Ye Fan nodded, "Hey, why didn't I see Uncle Li Ming?"

"He was also executed." Speaking of Li Ming, Ye Mou's face darkened: "This guy is very stubborn. He took the lead in launching a resistance in the prison and was among the first to be executed."

"Uncle Li Ming is too strong." Hearing this, Ye Fan also sighed slightly. He could successfully control Nanchuan, and Li Ming's help was indispensable. Later in the court, he and Ye Mou made many achievements together.

Life and death are impermanent. After a slight pause, Ye Fan asked:

"Uncle Li Ming's family is still in Kyoto, are they all still there?"

"They are all still there." Ye Mou nodded: "Li Wushuang is very smart. After the city was destroyed, she took her family and disguised herself as an ordinary hawker in the city. Although she suffered some hardships, fortunately, she was not harmed by the rebels."

"Li Wushuang has always been very smart." Ye Fan nodded: "I plan to reuse her after arriving in Nanchuan."

"Yes, she will be a good helper for you." Ye Mou replied, unable to hide his regret: "This old boy Li Ming tried to persuade him to leave first, but he just refused to leave. Alas!"

"Everyone has his own persistence. Uncle Li Ming is not willing to leave, so it is the same." After comforting Ye Mou, Ye Fan suddenly remembered something: "Is there any news about the Luo family in the city?"

"No." Ye Mou shook his head, also confused: "I asked many people, but they don't know where the Luo family has gone."

"It is said that soon after Ning Xiachuan came to power, Luo Qingxuan never went to court again, and no one from the Luo family showed up again."

"Then you should just listen to the advice." Hearing this, Ye Fan nodded slightly. Before the war started, he told Luo Qingxuan that leaving with the Luo family would be the best development. The old lady did not hesitate.

Without thinking too much, Ye Fan glanced at the list and walked outside. They were at a high place, and at a glance they saw that Kyoto was now full of soldiers carrying supplies, and the crowds were panicked.

"Kyoto has been recovered. After that, there may be no more Kyoto."
