Myriad Realms Summoning System

"Stop being dazed. We must kill Xiao Chen. Otherwise, if today's incident gets out, we will all be dead!" A centurion among the remaining rebels roared.

When the other rebels heard this, their eyes flashed with ferocity. They knew they had no way out, and they attacked the defense line of more than 20 people in front of them with even more violent attitudes.

The cultivation levels of both sides were similar, but the difference in numbers caused the defense line formed by Xiao Chen's men to collapse instantly.

In the blink of an eye, two or three of the twenty guards were killed, and each of them was injured.

On the other hand, the rebels suffered little losses. They rushed forward like hungry wolves, wishing to eat Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen was very anxious when he saw these ferocious rebels. Even though he had just beaten the centurion to death with one punch, it was because the centurion was looking for death and attacked him without any defense, which gave him the opportunity.

As the first step in martial arts training, martial artists focus on training their bodies to increase physical strength and power.

The brute force of a punch from a perfect martial artist is more than a thousand pounds, and it is not surprising that it hits an unsuspecting six-star martial artist with such an effect.

But if Xiao Chen were to join the battle alone, he would not be able to touch these battle-hardened guards due to his lack of combat skills, and he would probably be hacked to death in a few breaths.

Zhang Liao, where are you? Come and save me quickly!

"How dare you hurt my Lord!"

As if Xiao Chen's inner thoughts were heard, a voice like thunder came.

As the voice fell, an eight-foot-tall man appeared behind the dozens of rebels, rushed into the crowd with a hook and sickle in his hand, and immediately started a massacre.

In less than half a minute, dozens of rebels were all lying on the ground like corpses.

Blood covered the entire ground in front of the big tent, the strange bright red color was terrifying.

Everyone was stunned watching this scene. The rebels that they had previously found difficult to resist were completely slaughtered in less than half a minute. It was too horrifying!

Xiao Chen looked at it and was a little dazed, but after being dazed, he became excited.

Famous generals throughout history have achieved extraordinary feats and have a loyal heart.

Zhang Liao, Zhang Wenyuan, is finally here!

"I am Zhang Liao, the last general, and I am late in protecting you. Please forgive me, my lord!" Zhang Liao knelt on one knee, lowered his head and said loudly.

Xiao Chen did not answer immediately, but looked at Zhang Liao carefully.

Zhang Liao was about thirty years old, eight feet tall, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, a broad face and a heavy chin. He looked very majestic, truly a fierce general. The dozen or so remaining guards looked at Zhang Liao with some fear, what a majestic general!

Xiao Chen quickly came to his senses and hurried over to help Zhang Liao up.

"Haha, Wenyuan, you are too kind. If you hadn't arrived in time, I would have lost my life. I have to thank you very much! Tell me, what reward do you want?"

"Zhang Wenyuan is late in protecting the emperor, so I dare not ask for any reward!" Zhang Liao said immediately.

Xiao Chen smiled and said, "How can this be possible? The reward is still required, but since Wen Yuan won't talk about it now, let's not talk about it for now. In the future, I will definitely give Wen Yuan a big reward."

After saying this, he turned around and looked at the guards who had decided to follow him. He bowed slightly and was about to thank them when the 18 surviving guards were frightened and knelt on the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, we deserve to die!"

Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then he reacted. This was the Tianluo Continent, with a strict hierarchy. Although he was no longer the crown prince, he was still the King of Guangyang and still a member of the royal family, and they were his subordinates.

If I bow to them, it would be a capital crime.

The royal family of the kingdom can only bow to the emperor of the time. Even if he says they are innocent, they still cannot accept it.

With a helpless smile, Xiao Chen looked at the trembling eighteen guards and said with gratitude from the bottom of his heart: "Today, I, Xiao Chen, thank you for trusting me and following me. I promise that I will never treat you unfairly. This is my promise!"

The eighteen guards were excited and said hurriedly, "We would like to thank His Majesty for his great grace."

Xiao Chen pondered for a moment, then continued, "All the brothers who died in battle today will be rewarded with 10,000 taels of silver, and their families will be granted hereditary sixth-rank military positions!"

The eighteen guards were so excited when they heard this that they prostrated themselves on the ground and thanked him, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your great grace. May Your Majesty live a thousand years, a thousand years, a thousand thousand years!"

In their hearts, they even envied their brothers who died in the battle. Not only were their families rewarded with ten thousand taels of silver, but they were also granted hereditary military officers.

The court of the Great Zhou Kingdom was jointly controlled by the royal family and aristocratic families. Nine out of ten officials in the court were from aristocratic families. There were only two ways for commoners to become officials: one was to have outstanding talents, and the other was to join an aristocratic family.

Although these guards are strong warriors in the army, they are definitely not geniuses. They have no way to join aristocratic families and can only be soldiers for their entire lives.

And now, the families of those brothers who died in battle have been awarded sixth-rank hereditary military titles. The trajectories of their lives have changed as a result. What a great blessing this is!

For a moment, they all forgot that Xiao Chen was no longer the crown prince, let alone the current emperor. The power to confer an official position above the seventh rank was a power only the emperor had.

Xiao Chen naturally knew this, but he still issued these rewards. As for the reason? Humph, how could I, Xiao Chen, be willing to be the King of Guangyang? I will take back my things sooner or later.

"No need to thank you, go down and rest. I'll leave a team of guards here to deal with the corpses around!"

"yes!"

After Xiao Chen made the arrangements, he took Zhang Liao back to the big tent.

After returning to the big tent, Xiao Chen chatted a lot with Zhang Liao, and learned from him his identity in this world. He was a distant cousin of a concubine of the late emperor, and he had been practicing in the mountains since he was a child.

After the previous emperor died suddenly, he received a letter from the concubine and came to seek refuge with Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen was speechless about this setting. His cheap father had dozens of concubines. After Xiao Tianci attempted to seize the throne, these concubines committed suicide or were executed. God knows which concubine's cousin it was.

However, this also meant that Xiao Chen no longer had to worry about being exposed, and they chatted until late at night before Zhang Liao left Xiao Chen's tent.

After Zhang Liao left, Xiao Chen sat alone on a chair in the big tent, closed his eyes, and immersed himself in the system: "System, are you there?"

"If the host has any questions, just ask directly. There is no need to ask whether the system is there or not. The system is always there!"

Tsundere!

Xiao Chen silently put a label on the system.

Then, he continued to ask: "System, I have a few questions for you."

"First of all, why did Zhang Liao become a warrior at the level of a martial commander when he arrived in this world?"

"Secondly, what do the Command Value, Talent Value, and Low Martial Arts on Zhang Liao's Zodiac Panel mean?"

"Finally, could you please introduce to me the functions of the system?"

The third update will be sent later. I'm a newbie and hope you can give me some recommendations.
