Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 128 — Palace Attacks X
With the four golden swords he carried, Zhou Yuan controlled them to attack all of the organization's forces that were in the inner part of the palace.
The organization army that initially felt the upper hand, laughed because it would conquer the palace and rule the empire, he said, suddenly the atmosphere had to turn one hundred and eighty degrees into fear as well as screams as a sword came and took their lives, one after another.
The organization's forces were initially unaware of the arrival of the 4 golden swords until they saw their comrades begin to fall to the ground.
Those who quickly realized the attack immediately withdrew their weapons, preparing for an attack that was actually unaware of what they were fighting.
The problem was that the four golden swords were not something that could be held back by an ordinary sword even a lowly grade heirloom. Third-rate heirlooms could only survive three collisions before their heirlooms were damaged and split apart.
Not only there, Zhou Yuan also absorbed the light around him to limit the opponent's visibility, the organization troops knew nothing when they found their comrades had fallen to the ground when they could look back.
Zhou Yuan also did not remain silent, he pulled out the Kusanagi sword from its sheath and slashed it towards his opponent, in one swing, Zhou Yuan killed several of them.
The palace soldiers looked confused and did not understand the situation when they saw a sword helping them, but on the other hand they were also grateful for the existence of the weapon for helping him.
Those who had thought it would be over today began to have hopes of returning to life and even winning the battle.
As the massacre of the golden sword happened, on the same side Zhou Yuan's murderous aura continued to grow more concentrated, he could feel a change in his body after taking many lives.
'I didn't expect, my whole life would have a murderous aura this close...' Zhou Yuan sighed as his body now exuded a blackish-red aura that looked terrifying to someone who saw it.
For the criminal people, perhaps having a murderous aura was arguably a pride for them but for Zhou Yuan it was precisely a disgrace.
An overly concentrated murderous aura would make one's appearance dreaded, while if the swordsman did not have a strong mentality, the murderous aura would affect their emotions and thoughts, while if they were not strong, the assassin's aura would affect their emotions and thoughts, one of the repercussions was that he became someone bloodthirsty.
Therefore Zhou Yuan felt grateful because his teacher had once taught him how to hide the aura.
Zhou Yuan himself was not a bloodthirsty person, perhaps because his experience in the first life made his point of view change in order to deal with criminals in this way.
As a result, the government did not take criminal organizations seriously, as a result of which their numbers are increasing even to rival the power of the government.
Zhou Yuan continued to exterminate the troops of the criminal organizations that were in the interior of the palace, although Zhou Yuan managed to kill many of them but there were some organizational troops that managed to escape and escape out of the palace.
Feeling that the palace was now safe, Zhou Yuan looked for a high place and this time controlled all four of his swords in different directions.
Zhou Yuan pointed his golden swords towards the location of the east, west, south, and north gates, there was where the location of the larger battle was taking place.
Each location of Zhou Yuan's gate deployed one of his golden swords to it while Zhou Yuan himself controlled all four of them remotely.

"What's? How can?!"
Guo Zhengxa who was fighting Jiang Qisha was surprised to see the bird stealth troops he was carrying began to fall to the ground.
Guo Zhengxa could not see clearly because the distance to the bird demon was quite far, in his eyes he could only see the number of bird stealth was starting to decrease significantly.
Not only Guo Zhengxa, even Jiang Qisha who saw him was no less surprised. He did not understand how the birds fell but he was certainly relieved that the troops he feared were finally destroyed.
Moments later the bird demons that originally filled the sky had now been reduced by more than half until at some point the riders finally began to disperse.
Guo Zhengxa's expression became tangled, the bird troop was the only mainstay in this attack in order to conquer the palace. If they were already finished off then Guo Zhengxa's plan would likely fail.
The troop of the running organization all had expressions of fear like being chased by a ghost.
Guo Zhengxa did not understand but before long he got his answer, the running organization troops were chased by a sword floating in the air.
The movement of the sword was faster than the speed of the troop of the organization running so that one after another the same sword caught up with them as well as killed them.
"What is..."
Guo Zhengxa held his breath watching the golden sword action, he only learned that there was a sword that could float in the air and had a mind of its own.
Had it not been Guo Zhengxa watching his soldiers directly get killed after the sword pierced through their bodies, he might have considered all of this just an illusion.
Jiang Qisha was also no less surprised to see the golden sword but he was able to quickly calm down when the one targeted by the floating sword was just an organization army.
Seeing Guo Zhengxa's attention focused towards the sword, Jiang Qisha considered this an opportunity. While moving quickly, Jiang Qisha appeared in front of Guo Zhengxa and gave a fire tread attack on his chest.
Guo Zhengxa realized too late that the tread attack hit his body. Guo Zhengxa took a few steps back while holding onto her aching chest, though she was shielded by the glow but Jiang Qisha's white flame still managed to injure her.
"Do you have no shame..." Guo Zhengxa clucked resentfully at the behavior of the Moon Emperor.
"Don't blame me, but blame yourself for not focusing on fighting." Jiang Qisha grunted softly.
Guo Zhengxa cursed in his heart, and then exerted a deep force on his chest to alleviate the pain. Thanks to his glow, Jiang Qisha's tread attack did not make him hurt too deeply.
Guo Zhengxa's attention was again distracted by the hovering sword, now that after killing the organization's forces that managed to escape from the palace he began to lead to a battle at the location of the gate.
The same sword began to slash through the organization army in a short time, no one could succeed from its attack let alone when the organization army was busy fighting with the palace soldiers.
Guo Zhengxa who saw his army being slaughtered in this way could not stay idle, he immediately dashed towards the hovering sword, intending to stop it but Jiang Qisha instantly blocked his steps.
"Qisha, let's continue this fight for a while!" Guo Zhengxa said in a cold voice.
"Why not now, I won't let you act as you please..."
Now the situation is reversed, if previously Jiang Qisha was in a position that was less advantaged but now it was Guo Zhengxa who was in the opposite position.
Although Jiang Qisha did not know about the sword but he was sure that someone behind it was on his side.
Guo Zhengxa cursed inwardly, he had no other choice but to continue his second fight, Jiang Qisha really did not let Guo Zhengxa get away with handling that sword.
Guo Zhengxa could see from afar the hovering sword action started killing his troops one by one. If this kind of situation continues then it is only a matter of time that the position on his side will suffer defeat.
Guo Zhengxa did not know that the same position occurred at the other three palace gates.
Xiao Fan who was exchanging attacks with Huang Zhang had to stop their fight after seeing the floating sword.
Moreover, the floating sword had pointed towards Huang Zhang but could be easily handled by the stumped man thanks to his navel.
The same sword was also at the location of Yue Jian and Chu Guyu, the arrival of the golden sword was enough to make the battle situation turn around which was now suppressing the organization forces
