180: Qingshan is fortunate to bury loyal bones (asking for monthly tickets)
At this moment, the black-robed man's faint voice resounded.
“Did you see? Guangan Prefecture has new external aid. I’ve already received news that they are Sects from Jiannan Road who aren’t afraid of death. Hmph, to our Fei Yi Clan, they are nothing but a bunch of small fries. I have a move that can severely cripple their accumulated Aura.”
As he spoke, he clenched the hand behind his back, and an explosion of Qi could be heard within the small space.
Night Fox, who had scrambled up from the ground in a sorry state, looked at the other party with suspicion and uncertainty, speaking with a cautious and fearful tone: “Although I cannot hear the sound in this image, I observe that some of these people have extraordinary Auras. I fear they are Human Race from the Heavenly Gate. How dare you say…”
Night Fox did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.
They were the Six Mountains' secret agents who had captured Weiyuan Prefecture. Their mission was to gather intelligence on Guangan Prefecture and send it back, preparing for the next city's capture. Although those selected were all the outstanding young talents from various mountains, based on the recent image, what this Fei Yi said was nothing short of a fool's dream.
If these people were so easy to defeat, a few of them would have already taken this city!
The black-robed man seemed to have seen through his thoughts, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
“There are definitely Human Race from the Heavenly Gate inside, but who said we need to confront them head-on?”
“I have already found an opportunity!”
“Two days from now, the Xiao Family’s young daughter in South City will be holding a birthday banquet. This Xiao Family is a prominent local Family. One of the Xiao Family’s ancestors was once a Local General of the Guard, and he had extensive connections. Those local aristocratic Families had all received news to move their entire Families, but this Family, hmph, they are a tough nut to crack. Not only do they refuse to move, but they even incite other forces in the city to stay and resist our army. Hmph, they overestimate themselves.”
Speaking of this, his eyes narrowed, a fierce glint flashing within them, “I originally planned to slowly eliminate this Family, but I’ve changed my mind now. Two days from now will be a good opportunity.”
“I have already contacted the secret agents from the other four mountains. You come too!”
As he spoke, this person stared intently at Night Fox.
Night Fox, upon hearing this person's plan, found it quite feasible. From his initial reluctance, he now nodded.
“Heh!”
The black-robed man seemed to have known that Night Fox would agree. He chuckled, then turned around and glanced at both sides, “Brother, enjoy yourself. There will be many more days of enjoyment in the future!”
As soon as his voice fell, the man's figure transformed into a black mist, and then disappeared from the spot.
Inside the room, the adult Night Fox watched the domineering Fei Yi disappear, his expression gradually darkening. His emerald green eyes became violent, and he suddenly reached out to his left, then clenched his five fingers.
Only two screams were heard, and under the candlelight, a splash of black dots splattered out.
And inside the room, those women seemed completely unaware, standing blankly in place.
At this moment, Night Fox narrowed his eyes, then abruptly grabbed the black bird he had just caught. Their gazes met, a faint glow emanating, and then his lips moved rapidly.
Then, he tossed it from his hand.
“Coo-coo.”
The black bird's eyes regained their vitality, flapping its wings, and flew out of the open door into the night, heading towards the west side of the city.
Just as this black bird “coo-cooed” and flew out of West City, at the same time, a green light flew into Guangan Prefecture from the east, arriving at the Sky Patrol Division's station.
However, there was a Restriction inside, so the green stream of light stopped, revealing a green bird about three feet long. Immediately, armored soldiers shouted sternly,
“Bold Prodigy, how dare you trespass into the Sky Patrol Division!”
As he spoke, he was about to act, True Qi erupting.
However, the green bird spoke in human language, unhurriedly saying:
“I am Ninth Zhonglang’s Contracted Demon, Ji Rufeng. My lord asks if the supporting Sects have arrived here?”
In the Zhonglang Hall of the Sky Patrol Division, the Local General of the Guard, Gou Zhi, was currently socializing with four Heavenly Gate experts from Sects.
However, what these four Heavenly Gate experts from Sects most wanted to understand was the current situation outside Guangan Prefecture.
But what made them frown was that this Local General of the Guard was almost completely clueless, which made them inwardly grumble,
“I wonder why the Fa Shan Army’s Ninth Zhonglang has not appeared?”
At this moment, Qingyangzi, the Peak Master of Canghai Peak of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect, spoke, his tone neither warm nor cold.
Gou Zhi, however, smiled.
“Ninth Zhonglang is usually busy with military affairs, so even I, Gou, find it difficult to disturb him. Perhaps he has something important.”
No sooner had he finished speaking than footsteps were heard outside.
Immediately following, a green-armored figure entered the main hall, saluted forward, and then bowed to both sides,
“Greetings, General Gou, and all Seniors! My General has a message for everyone!”
As he spoke, he waved behind him.
“Come in!”
As his words fell, a green light flew in like a stream of light, then the figure of Ji Rufeng appeared.
Everyone looked at this small demon, who was only in the Qi Refining realm, with surprised expressions.
Then, Liu Qing, who had entered, explained, “This is my General’s Contracted Demon, Ji Rufeng!”
Everyone's minds turned slightly, and they reacted.
“Ninth Zhonglang is not in Guangan Prefecture?”
“Yes!” Ji Rufeng spoke, with a bird-like chirp: “My lord is currently in Jiangan County outside Guangan Prefecture. The General said that if the Heavenly Gate experts from the supporting Sects arrive, please go to Jiangan County.”
“My lord says he needs help!”
However, upon hearing this, Gou Zhi's eyebrows couldn't help but twitch, and he quickly said, “Didn’t Ninth Zhonglang personally say that Jiangan County was occupied by the Night Fox Clan? How is he there?”
“Are you saying your lord is in danger?” Qingyangzi of Canghai Peak frowned upon hearing this.
“No,” the green bird Ji Rufeng chirped, quickly shaking his head, “My lord went on a killing spree and killed them. Now, he is waiting for other demons to come to his door!”
“Yes, yes, that’s exactly what he meant!”
As these words came out, the few people in the hall exchanged glances.
Gou Zhi was a bit dumbfounded. Listening to this, it seemed Ninth Zhonglang went to their doorstep alone and started killing?
And the four Heavenly Gate experts from the four Sects were somewhat dazed. They were new arrivals and did not understand the meaning of the words, mainly because they had just asked the Local General of the Guard about the external situation and had not gotten any useful information.
“It seems our Ninth Zhonglang truly needs our help and is waiting for us.”
Qingyangzi stood up at this moment, smiling faintly, and exchanged glances with the other three.
“Perfect, let’s go and see for ourselves!”
“Haha, good show right after we arrived! Let’s go!”
On the other side, seven hundred li away, in Jiangan County, Chen Yuan dug a pit in a courtyard of the county yamen and placed the bodies of the sacrificed armored soldiers into it, burying them with earth.
Among them was Yu Xiaowei (Commandant Yu)!
This person's soul had been shattered by Night Fox, losing all vitality.
Behind him, the clatter of armor could be heard. The more than a dozen surviving armored soldiers, covered in dust, showed expressions of sorrow. They all thumped their chests and bowed their heads in salute.
