Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens
Chapter 1978: Difficulties in Taking a Step
When Yin Yue released a very strong spiritual flame and burned Zuo Feng's body with his mind power, Zuo Feng kept absorbing the essence of the spiritual energy with caution.
First, absorbing too quickly would be easily noticed by the other party, and secondly, Zuo Feng needed to delay time. He originally wanted to buy time for the retreat of the Su Wang family.
Just as Zuo Feng controlled the speed of the operation of the skills and slowly absorbed the essence of Yin Yue's flame, the Wang family, the Su family and the City Lord's Mansion were also retreating with all their strength. Perhaps retreating is not quite appropriate, but running away is more appropriate.
Although the Wang family rushed to the front, they did not dare to take it lightly, especially after being attacked by the Mu clan before, which forced the Wang family warriors to be more cautious.
The Su family, not far from the Wang family, looked much more embarrassed. Not only were they being chased by the ghost painter warriors, but also the Lin family Mu clan members were coming from both sides, because the Mu clan members who were at the peak of the Qi-intake and the middle stage of the Qi-intake directly left the team of the Qi-sensing warriors behind and came from the left and right at an astonishing speed.
However, compared with the City Lord's Mansion, the Wang family and the Su family were much better. The City Lord's Mansion could no longer be described as embarrassed, it was simply sad and pitiful.
Originally, among the three families of Su, Wang and Guo, the City Lord's Mansion Guo family suffered the greatest loss in the old city. Not only did a big steward Zhao Mang die in it, but the Guo family also suffered the greatest loss of ordinary warriors.
In the end, only more than a hundred people escaped from the Lin family's formation group, but they were surrounded and killed by the ghost painters and the Mu clan members. Now there are only fifty or sixty people left, and they are still trying to escape with Kang Yi.
Almost in the blink of an eye, everyone had already left the old district in the north of the city. Although everyone would constantly adjust their direction when escaping, the general direction did not change and they always went south.
As everyone moved forward, they could see a strange empty land in the distance, and a dense stone forest surrounded by high walls appeared in front of everyone. No one didn't know that it was the foundation of the Kuocheng formation, and no one would deliberately approach there. After all, the formation foundation had an independent attack effect, and rashly entering would only be attacked by the formation.
However, after seeing the formation stone forest, the old man Kang Yi's face rarely had a gleam of brilliance, and he shouted loudly: "Go to the City Lord's Mansion, everyone hide in the City Lord's Mansion, there are means to temporarily intercept these guys."
Kang Yi's voice spread far away, and everyone in the distance could hear it. Not only Su Jian and others heard it clearly, but even the people of the Wang family who were farther away could hear it.
However, the Wang family warriors who rushed to the front did not hesitate at all, and did not adjust their direction at all, and had no intention of going to the City Lord's Mansion at all.
Su Jian turned his head and took a look, and found that the warriors of the Su family's team were mixed with the warriors of the City Lord's Mansion behind him, and were now under attack by the ghost painter.
After a brief thought, Su Jian gritted his teeth and pointed to the City Lord's Mansion in the distance. Although he felt that doing so was a bit risky, and he did not think that the means in the City Lord's Mansion were capable of dealing with such a large team of warriors behind him.
But after weighing it again and again, he still chose to take a risk, otherwise his men might suffer a lot of losses.
Seeing that the Su family was willing to take shelter in the City Lord's Mansion, Kang Yi also flashed a smile that could not be concealed on his face, and then quickly commanded his warriors to follow the Su family warriors in front and rush towards the City Lord's Mansion.
According to Zuo Feng's instructions, although their escape route can be adjusted by themselves, the direction must not be changed significantly, especially without any stop in the middle, and return directly to the Su family's mansion, where there will naturally be someone to pick them up.
This instruction was clearly told to everyone, but so far only Wang Xiao and the Wang family's warriors have resolutely executed it. Su Jian was actually hesitating in his heart. At this point, he was of course willing to believe Zuo Feng, but now he didn't want to defend the City Lord's Mansion to death, but to use the City Lord's Mansion to resist for a while, consume the enemy a little, and then continue to withdraw to his family.
But just as they gradually approached and could even see the buildings inside the City Lord's Mansion, Su Jian, Kang Yi and others felt something was wrong at the same time.
Because the City Lord's Mansion was too quiet, and this quietness obviously revealed a weird taste. Su Jian and Kang Yi were not fools. When they saw this situation, they immediately realized that it was not good, and almost ordered the team to change direction in unison.
That is, while they were adjusting their direction, dozens of figures suddenly flew out of the City Lord's Mansion. Obviously, these people had been prepared there for a long time. If everyone fell without any defense, they would definitely be attacked by these dozens of people.
More importantly, the so-called defensive means in the City Lord's Mansion must have been destroyed by the other party, and it was meaningless to settle in the City Lord's Mansion.
But after just two adjustments in direction, more warriors from the Su family and the City Lord's Mansion were injured and killed by the other side. It can be said that the loss of warriors was happening every moment.
Moreover, the Mu clan members who came from both sides were able to attack the Su family and the City Lord's Mansion from both sides.
Su Jian cursed the dead end pointed by Kang Yi in his heart, and secretly cursed himself for not listening to Zuo Feng's arrangements. The continuous lessons and the loss of many family warriors also made Su Jian understand one thing and made up his mind completely.
If you want to survive for the time being, you must obey Zuo Feng's arrangements. No matter what variables appear in front of you, you must definitely execute Zuo Feng's plan.
Kang Yi, who was following closely behind, had an old face as red as a pig's liver. What made him even more depressed was that this time he couldn't push the problem onto anyone else. The wrong suggestions and decisions all came from him alone. hand.
Just during these two adjustments of direction, more than a dozen warriors from the family were killed by the opponent. Looking around, there were only less than forty warriors from the City Lord's Mansion following them. This was no longer even comparable to some medium-sized forces. compared to.
What made him even more miserable was that the Mu clan members who were surrounding him from both sides seemed to want to kill him and all the warriors from the city lord's palace.
At this critical moment of life and death, suddenly firelights flickered from below. The firelights were not big, but they flickered with countless sparks shooting out. And while the firelight flickered, there were countless muffled sounds coming from below.
Next, countless fireballs rose into the sky from below and shot into the air. Those fireballs rushed into the crowd almost in the blink of an eye, and then exploded rapidly in the air.
Suddenly, countless huge fireballs exploded in the sky. Although those fireballs did not cause much damage when they exploded, when those fireballs exploded, there were dense sparks and thick smoke, which would affect the warrior's sight. It has quite an impact.
Especially the warriors who were already gathered together, because of the sudden appearance of these fireballs, the warrior team was immediately thrown into chaos, and naturally they were unable to organize a powerful offensive like before.
Although Su Jian and Kang Yi were stunned for a moment, they immediately understood that no matter who made the arrangement, doing so would only be in the best interest of themselves and others.
Without any hesitation, they immediately called on the warriors to take advantage of the chaos and escape. In this chaotic environment, it would be more disadvantageous for the attacking side, but it would have a much smaller impact on an all-out retreat.
This is the most common firecracker, an item used all over Kunxuan Continent, but it is generally only used on very important festivals.
No one could have imagined that someone would set up so many firecrackers here, and spend thousands of them at one time. I am afraid that it would be difficult for all the firecrackers in the chambers of commerce in a main city to add up to such a terrifying amount.
Duan Yueyao, who was watching countless firecrackers rising into the sky and exploding in the distance, looked back at Shopkeeper Luo and said, "It shouldn't be easy for you to gather so many firecrackers in such a short time."
After receiving Duan Yueyao's praise, shopkeeper Luo smiled implicitly and said: "Compared to Miss Yueyao's strategizing, this is just an errand job. Miss, you can rest assured that everything is done in secret, and most of the firecrackers are scattered. After the acquisition, we did not go directly to other chambers of commerce to buy in large quantities, and no one knew that we were behind it.”
Duan Yueyao nodded, looked at Shopkeeper Luo again, the smile on his face became a little brighter, and said: "Yes, yes, Shopkeeper Luo is very good at doing things. After the incident in Kuocheng, you can go back to the family directly. If anyone asks, just say it was my arrangement.”
Hearing Duan Yueyao's words, Shopkeeper Luo was inexplicably surprised and bowed down. You must know that according to his qualifications and background, it will take more than five years to enter the family. Now, because of his ability in doing things, Duan Yueyao has lost five years of hard work.
"No need to be polite. When you return to the imperial capital this time, you will find that we are no longer the original medicine sect. The medicine families of the Xuanwu Empire are rising and will never be weaker than any super family in the future. As long as you are willing to serve the family with your heart If you do things well, your descendants will have the hope of becoming a member of the inner clan in the future."
Shopkeeper Luo, who was kneeling on the ground, was trembling violently. He was so excited that he couldn't speak for a long time. Duan Yueyao had already turned his gaze to the distance at this time.
In the sky near the city lord's palace, firecrackers and fireworks were still exploding intermittently in the air. Many ghost painters could be seen rushing out of the thick smoke and fire debris.
As soon as these people rushed out, they angrily chased the Su family and the City Lord's Mansion. Only a small number of them flew downwards, as if to find who ruined such a good opportunity. However, shopkeeper Luo had already made arrangements, so of course those people would not be able to gain anything.
"Let's go, we have to get there as soon as possible. These are just small tricks. Whether we can truly overcome the current difficulties ultimately depends on Zuo Feng's methods."
Duan Yueyao calmly withdrew his gaze, said something softly, and then started to circulate his spiritual energy, stood up and flew towards the south.
Shu Zai and Shopkeeper Luo didn't say anything. They circulated their spiritual energy and flew in the air. They separated to the left and right to protect Duan Yueyao in the middle.
