Chapter 49 CHAPTER 48 : One Shot Kill And Capturing The Phoenix City

" Little Xiuying is just three years old. Will she be fine with that much power?" Joey asked her.

" Relax, she has just awakened her eyes power. Her power will manifest with the change of her emotions. I have already sealed her eyes for now. But, under her extreme emotions, her eyes will forcefully unseal it. Also, judging by her bone age, she is just two years old. " The man said. Then, he took out a piece of black cloth, made it into a headband, and wore it while covering his forehead.

Then the master and disciple started their daily routine. Month after month, the man just taught him knowledge of karma and the value of life daily. But, he never taught a single martial skill to him. Joey never cared about it. He just does everything his master teaches him obediently. Thus, a year passed quickly like this.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the eastern corner of the Fire nation not far from the border of the Tang nation, a prosperous city lies. The Machai river passed through this city in the middle. Even though this city lies on the remote border of the Fire nation, business is booming in this place. Millions of people enter and leave this city daily. So, it has become one of the hotspot cities for business. Looking from the sky, this city looked like a phoenix, so they called its name The Phoenix city.

Many tall beautiful buildings and roads here show how rich this city really is. Traders either came to this city either from land roads or riverways. But, this city has a tight security system. Patrolmen and city guards were guarding the entrance and exit of the city the whole time.

At the center, inside the tall building two men were currently drinking tea. One of them was a neat-looking middle-aged man while the other was a short, bold guy. They were the current city lord and his advisor.

" City Lord, I heard bad news from the palace. One of my uncles who worked as a eunuch in the palace sent me a message about the coming war with the Tang nation near our city. What should we do? If our eastern fire corp failed in the border then this city will be their first target. " The bald short guy reported.

" Tao, you need to calm down. No need to stress yourself for such matters. If the worst scenario appears then, we will take our families and leave through the secret escape routes. But, the income we get daily here..." The city lord said. Then he sighed heavily.

After ten days, a war breaks out between the Tang and Fire nations on the border.

When they all were fighting, a giant black eagle appeared before them. On its back captain, Yang Chao and his teammate were currently seeing the killing of the soldiers among themselves. At the same time, another big roc-type beast appeared beside the side of the Fire Nation. A team of another 20 men sits on the back of the roc beast. Their leader is a middle-aged man holding a spear in his hand. He has a long scar on his face.

" So, it is Captain Chao's team. I heard from everyone that your 'Bloody hammer team' is an undefeated war devil. Also, let me check out the strength of the so-called Hawk eyes." The scar-faced man shouted at them rudely.

Judging by his aura, he is currently in the 1st level of the nascent soul realm, the same as Captain Chao's cultivation realm. He won every battle he had in his life under the same level of his cultivation. So, he was never afraid of anyone with a similar level of cultivation.

" Just with you. I will give you a chance. Surrender or die." Captain Chao shouted back.

The scar-face man laughed weirdly and retorted back, " Kee Keke. Alright, today I will take your head and will present it to the fire god as my offering. Everyone attacked them, don't show them any mercy. Kill them all"

He then jumped down and approached Captain Yang Chao while the spears in his hand started turning fiery hot.

" Then die."

Captain Chao brought out his bow and an arrow and shot at him. Just at that moment, the arrow reached the scarface man quickly. The scar-face man swung his spear to block the arrow. But the power of the arrow is so strong that it breaks the spear and hits his head. Then, his head exploded with a loud sound.

' Bang'

Everyone looked toward the sound. They saw the headless man standing there still and his body fell down slowly on the ground. That power of arrow had even killed a lvl 5 beast king near the Glory city. How can the scar-faced man defend against it?

( Lvl 4 beast = nascent soul realm expert; lvl 5 beast is a king beast)

When their strongest expert died in one shot, everyone from the Fire nation started running away from the battleground, some of them surrendered.

The large roc beast tried to flee along with the mem on his back. But captain Chao shot another arrow at them, killing both the lvl 4 roc beast and all the men on its back.

Then the war ended quickly.

After that Captain Chao and his teammate sit back on the black eagle. Then the eagle flew toward the direction of Phoenix city.

Currently, news of the utter defeat of the Eastern fire corp reached the office of the city lord. Then he started putting all the valuable goods inside his 10 space rings in his fingers. He, his advisor, and their families started evacuating from the city through a secret route they knew in the city.

At that time the black eagle reached Phoenix city. It flew inside the city.

And stood still high in the sky above the center of the city.

" Everyone, from today onward this city belongs to the Tang nation. So, every official should come out and surrender. Else, we will kill. Others stay inside your house and don't come out. " The fatty Xiaobo shouted loudly using his essence qi so that everyone in the city could hear him.

Captain Chao looked at the building of the city Lord. But, he saw nothing. So, he started searching everywhere using his visual technique. Then a smile appeared on his face.

" Xiaoli, the City Lord, and his family are currently inside the tunnel below the river. You go and bring them back here safely." He ordered.

Captain Chao looked at his team and added, " Xiaobo, you stay. Others, you all go bring those important officials here and lock them up as prisoners. If they resist, kill."
