Phantom Thief and King of Isekai

49 The Green Marshal

    Jiang Zitong opened the way for everyone with a sword. The blue light intersected with the green ghost fire in front of him, constantly erupting fierce shocks. Behind him, Sheng Lingyun protected Luo Xiao and Yueling step by step along Jiang Zitong. The road goes forward.

    The four of them kept walking forward without stopping for a moment. The cooperation between Jiang Zitong and Sheng Lingyun is so close, they look like two brothers.

    "In this way, if you keep going forward, can you reach the end that the man said?"

    Jiang Zitong has always believed this in his heart.

    His sword rushed forward quickly, and the sword aura broke open towards the ghost fire, and the ghost fire blocking in front of everyone was gradually reduced.

    ——Bei Chen Ye's house was not very big at first, everyone just rushed to the door of Bei Chen Ye's house after a short time.

    "I will rush out soon!" Jiang Zitong called back, "Everyone, follow me!"

    "Ok!"

    Everyone responded in unison.

    At this time, only one voice said to the side: "Jiang Zitong, hehe, I didn't expect to see you here!"

    Jiang Zitong was startled when he heard the words, and said, "Who?!"

    The voice smiled secretly and said, "An old friend of yours, you should know me."

    Jiang Zitong was taken aback when he heard the words, and said: "Who are you?"

    "Haha, guess!" The man said, only a burst of ghost cries rang out in front of the audience, and a few more ghost fires in front of the crowd.

    "This—" Jiang Zitong said in surprise, "How come this guy is endless!"

    The voice in the darkness laughed wildly: "Hahahaha, Jiang Zitong, swing as much as you like, swing your sword, your blood, and everything about you as much as you like! All of this will soon become my nourishment. Enjoy everything about you! Especially—"

    Having said this, the voice paused for a while, and then continued: "Your-fear!"

    Jiang Zitong swung his sword to cut off a ghost fire in front of him, and said loudly--

    "Who would be afraid of ghosts like you!"

    "Oh? Really? Then you continue to be strong!" The voice laughed wildly, "Hahahahaha!"

    "Huh!" Jiang Zitong snorted from his nose, looked at the ghost fire in front of him, turned his head and said to everyone, "You stay away from me, I am afraid that my sword energy will affect you!"

    After hearing Jiang Zitong's words, Sheng Lingyun took everyone back a few steps.

    Jiang Zitong erected the sword in his hand in front of him, facing the numerous ghost fires in front of him, staring in meditation for a moment, then he slowly opened his eyes, and then, the sword in his hand was raised to his head——

    A blue phoenix flew out of his sword and rushed straight above the nine heavens. Then, his sword also glowed with blue light following the appearance of the blue phoenix.

    The next moment, that Lan Feng flew forward, and after flying around in mid-air, the few ghost fires blocking him in front of him were all swallowed by that Lan Feng!

    "what!"

    Jiang Zitong yelled, and then he saw the sword in his hand pointed to the sky, and the blue phoenix also illuminated the indoor space.

    The light flashes, and the darkness has nowhere to hide. At this moment, Jiang Zitong winked at Sheng Lingyun behind him, and Sheng Lingyun knew it, and rushed towards the looming figure in the corner!

    I saw that it was a person wearing green clothes. After Sheng Lingyun rushed towards him, the figure of that person floated to a place that Sheng Lingyun could not reach.

    "My green marshal will not play with you!" The green figure flashed and disappeared from everyone's vision.

    Seeing the direction in which the guy who claimed to be the Green Marshal disappeared, Sheng Lingyun's eyes flashed with a light that no one could understand.

    Jiang Zitong raised his sword and asked Sheng Lingyun, "Your Majesty, can you chase?"

    Sheng Lingyun shook his head and said, "Forget it, let him go!"

    "Yes!" Jiang Zi replied, then put away the sword, and stood beside Sheng Lingyun-just like when they were monarchs and ministers. At that time, Jiang Zitong was not only the general and the strongest pioneer of the Nobita Empire, but also Sheng Lingyun's most trusted guard. At that time, the highest rank among the generals was General Zhou Xuanyuan, but the closest person to Sheng Lingyun was Jiang Zitong.

    Jiang Zitong's official position is one of the most special, because in the official system of the Nobita Empire, there is no "General" position. Among the generals, the highest rank is the general, followed by the four generals, front, back, left, and right, and then the so-called "titled generals", such as the chariot generals, the hussar generals, and the Wuwei generals.

    The official position of "General" was set up by Sheng Lingyun specifically for Jiang Zitong. The official ranks were set under the generals, above the four generals, and located in between. The so-called "under the three men and above the nine princes" . This also represents Jiang Zitong's unique position in Sheng Lingyun's heart.

    Sheng Lingyun recalled what happened with Jiang Zitong back then.

    Jiang Zitong, who was the same age as Sheng Lingyun, has followed Sheng Lingyun since he was twelve years old. At the age of fourteen, he followed Sheng Lingyun together to attack the rebellious minister Yikang and helped Sheng Lingyun repel the attack of Jin Yu, the overlord of the Central Plains.

    Later, he helped Sheng Lingyun win victory in the battle of Luochuan, a decisive battle between the five Central Plains, and established the hegemony of the male country in Central Plains. Then, in just three years, Xiongguo successively annihilated the other four powers at the time-Hegemony, Chu, Qi and Yuanguo.

    Jiang Zitong played a vital role in the war for the domination of the country. In the battle to defeat Chu State, Jiang Zitong was the first to ascend the capital of Pengcheng, the capital of Chu State.

    After Sheng Lingyun ruled the world, he ordered Jiang Zitong to lead an army of 200,000 troops northward to conquer the Heavenly Empire. The Monan area of the Tian Empire was occupied by Jiang Zitong. It is a pity that Jiang Zitong was conspired by the villain, and was ambushed when he led eight hundred soldiers to pursue the defeated army of the Heavenly Empire, and then the entire army was annihilated.

    However, Jiang Zitong defeated more than 3,000 enemy troops with a mere 800 people, but in the end, under the attack of 50,000 enemy troops, he failed because he was outnumbered.

    The death of Jiang Zitong made Sheng Lingyun extremely sad. In his anger, he mobilized an army of 600,000 to go northward, and it took only two months to drive the Kingdom of the Heavenly Empire. He slashed under the horse with his hands and hung his head high on the banner of the Nobita Empire. The other cities of the Celestial Empire and their vassal nations were terrified and hurriedly surrendered.

    It took only two months for Sheng Lingyun to occupy the Celestial Empire, a total area no less than the Daxiong Empire, and dozens of vassals of the Celestial Empire.

    After Sheng Lingyun returned to China, he sacrificed the head of Emperor Luantian to Jiang Zitong's tomb. The emperor, who was only 19 years old, stood by the tomb of the general who died young at the age of 19 and said softly: "Mingda, you can rest in peace."
