442 I Didnt See Anything (1/2)
”Boli! Xiaoze! What are you two doing?”
His tone was filled with the utmost fear, panic, and rage.
When Ji Lingzi heard that, he was shocked. He realized something was off when he turned around.
He saw that Boli and Xiaoze had respectively retreated off back towards the dingxi iron cavalry and close guards cavalry formation.
At this moment, the elite cavalry of the Han King turned their horses around and moved towards the entrance of the Black Spirit Canyon, actually wanting to back out of this place.
Even those 3 thousand Yan City elite cavalry were all turning around.
The eyes of Ji Lingzi were first filled with anxiousness and disbelief, but then he calmed down. His face turned green, ”Are you two rebelling? Colluding with the common people's path, you two are bold. Aren't you afraid of military law punishment?”
When Boli heard that, he turned his head and laughed out loud, ”Fellow cultivator Ji Lingzi, nice try at trying to frame me. Unfortunately for you, we are under the orders of the Han King to return. Recently, there has been many sowing chaos, and we have to return to calm it down! We won't be accompanying you here…”
The moment he said that not only were Ji Lingzi and the Tailing Sect disciples stunned, but even some on the side of the common people path they were caught off guard. They looked dumbfounded at the change in the situation.
Under the pressure of these 9 thousand iron cavalry, most of the people thought that they would die.
However who knew that before the war even began the enemy would break into pieces.
Xuanye, Xie An, and pretty much everyone within the formation looked towards Zong Shou with a weird gaze.
Did he predict it long ago?
Yuan Jiuchen, for some reason, thought about something. His face paled.
Ji Lingzi took many successive deep breaths to suppress the panic which rose in his heart once more.
”What are you all doing? Is the Han King going to go up against my Tailing Sect just because of this common people's path? My Tailing Sect has contributed so much to the Han King these few years. Is his highness going to repay it like this? Isn't he afraid of my Tailing Sect retaliating?”
The person who spoke wasn't Ji Lingzi, but the person behind him who had grade 7 cultivation. He was wearing a Taoist robe, and his red face was filled with rage.
”Boli isn't sure about that. You all can search for the Han King yourself and ask him about it!”
Boli commanded the 3 thousand cavalry under him in an orderly manner. After they changed directions, he smiled, ”However his highness has some words he would like me to tell Ji Lingzi and commander Yuan. He wants to ask the 2 of you to say hi to his 9th brother King Liao! After receiving so much help these few years, it is impolite not to reciprocate. Hehe, maybe not long later both of you would receive some news…”
Yuan Jiuchen only felt like his heart was being heavily hit by a hammer. His heart jumped profusely. His body on the horse shook several times like he was about to fall off it.
A bit of panic also flashed at the depths of Ji Lingzi's eyes. His expression became dark and unusual, ”I don't know how the Liao King connected to this! I only know that the common people path bandits are right in front of us. Are you all just going to let the enemy leave?”
Boli was startled. Then, he mocked, ”I thought that fellow cultivator Ji Lingzi should be smart. Who knew that you were a person with no eyes! Which eye of yours saw that there are common people path bandits here? Anyways, my subjects and I didn't see any. Oi! Brother Xiao, did you see any common people path people here?”
Xiaoze was prepared. The close to a thousand grade 6 dingxi iron cavalry he led was coincidentally behind the purple cloud sword cavalry of Tailing Sect. Out of all the Han King forces, it was the only army that hadn't retreated. At this moment, they were together with the 900 common people mysterious dragon warriors, forming a pincer movement.
After he heard that, he could only expressionlessly raise his eyelids, ”Common people path bandits? I didn't see any…”
Boli, once again, laughed out maniacally, ”So the one who can turn black into white isn't your Tailing Sect! Oh right, I forgot to mention! There are 40 thousand infantry troops at the entrance of Black spirit Canyon. If you all want to retreat, you cannot go through that path! You were scheming against him, but the person opposite you had already dug the hole several days earlier just waiting for you to jump in. This time it isn't surprising that your Tailing Sect lost!”
Those 200 Tailing Sect disciples originally had mocking expressions on their faces. Even the most careful ones felt that they had victory in their grasps.
At this moment, the mocking expression was fixed on their faces.
Those 1400 purple cloud sword cavalry seemed to know that the situation wasn't right, and the atmosphere was extremely suppressing.
Coincidentally, at this moment, a golden talisman flew over the air. Ji Lingzi took it in his hand. His face was instantly covered in a layer of black and green. He crushed it, nearly smashing the talisman into dust!
At the last moment, he suppressed such a thought. He casually tossed the golden talisman to Yuan Jiuchen by the side. The latter used his spiritual sense to look carefully. A moment later, his mouth was filled with a bitter taste.
”...Seven Spirit Qingyin 2 sects tried to assassinate the Liao King, forcing him to act. Using illusory techniques to make him use the Taiqing Chengfeng sword. The Yan City Pass matter isn't safe anymore, be careful…”
So that was the case! Taiqing Chengfeng Sword was the top-secret technique of the Tailing Sect. In the cloud world, there was only this sect and no other branches!
If this talisman could have come a few minutes earlier, then they wouldn't have ended up in such a state!
Those thousands of Han King cavalry retreated extremely quickly. In just 8 minutes, they were nowhere to be seen.
Even those thousand dingxi iron cavalry retreated like that of a flood, causing this Yuan Jiuchen to heave a sigh of relief. At least Han King wanted to let both sides suffer heavy losses, not willing to become direct enemies to Tailing Sect.
He looked around. However, his heart was still ice cold.
