These people's eyes lighted up instantly and Yun Que chuckled, ”Of course we must go deep into the southern borders and see if there are experts in the rebel army! We can't let these rebels look down on our Imperial College. Poor monk will enlighten them with Buddhism, converting them into Buddhists and do good!”
Qin Mu shook his head secretly. These fellows had still underestimated the danger of this journey.
This was a tough road to walk on and was a road that they might not finish walking even if they put their lives on the line.
”Our life and death is now up to fate, let us see if Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor, the number one man under gods, lives up to his name!”
Eternal Peace Imperial Preceptor dressed light and headed to the south. Qin Mu led the rest to follow him while asking Si Yunxiang about their encounters in this battle and couldn't help sighing ruefully again and again.
The fate of Si Yunxiang, Chen Wanyun and the rest were much better than Qin Mu. They were also blown away by Dutian Devil King but they didn't encounter abnormally strong practitioners like Long Jiaonan.
The dragon qilin landed not far away from them and since this dragon qilin was huge, they sprinted straight to where the dragon qilin was and when the heavenly devil horde descended, they surrounded the dragon qilin and started fighting.
Meanwhile, this dragon qilin had also fought against the heavenly devil horde that was surging over and he had an astonishing battle prowess. Si Yunxiang and the rest relied on his power to survive this calamity.
Qin Mu was astonished and looked at this dragon qilin. Hu Ling'er whispered beside his ears, ”Young master, big fella has been eating and drinking ours yet he didn't do anything on the journey here. It's even getting better now, protecting others and not protecting us. I think other than squeezing the dragon's saliva out from big fella, we can also squeeze other things out from him.”
”I also think so,” Qin Mu nodded his head.
He turned his head to look at Heaven Wave City which was getting further and further away, ”Now that Eternal Peace's army has entered the city, Long Jiaonan should die in the hands of the army, right? There's also the dragon king of Dragon Rider Sect who should be dead as well. A pity the unique spells of Dragon Rider Sect are gone. Great Mountain Sect is probably wiped out entirely as well. It's also a pity I didn't manage to learn the spells such as Devil Withdraw Command…”
When Dutian Devil King was summoned out by him, the Daoists of Great Mountain Sect had rushed over and tried to use Devil Withdraw Command to chase Dutian Devil King back to Dutian. However, Dutian Devil King's ability was too powerful and wiped them out in one blow.
However, Devil Withdraw Command was an extremely intricate spell that was specially used to deal with devils that were summoned out. If it was executed by a stronger person, they could indeed chase Dutian Devil King back.
It's a pity that this spell was lost with the deaths of Great Mountain Sect's followers.
Heaven Wave City was in a mess and the soldiers were still repairing the city walls. They swept the debris of the collapsed buildings and transferred them out of the city.
On the river surface, thousands of ships and boats moved off and carried divisions of the army across the river. The army didn't stop at Heaven Wave City and continued heading to the south.
There were still soldiers in Heaven Wave City capturing the remnants of the rebel army and surrounding the heavenly devil horde from Dutian, discovering some commoners that had survived by luck in the process. There were soldiers taking the painting of bandits and walking through the commoners that had survived, comparing them one by one with the paintings.
”This girl is born pretty.”
A soldier came to the side of a girl who was at a lost and exclaimed to himself. This girl was dressed in a dark green gown which hung until her feet and her hair was rolled up in a bun. She had beautiful features and the powder on her face was light. Her red lips were like two purple-red pearls and her long, shapely eyebrows were very fine. With one look, one would know she was a well-bred young lady from one of the big families in Heaven Wave City.
The soldier gave two looks before walking elsewhere. The girl's gaze was like spring water and a glistening red jade earring hung on her left ear. Suddenly, the earring moved and stretched its body.
That earring was a little red snake which hung through her ear piercing. It looked like it was made from red jade but it was actually a living thing.
If Qin Mu was here, he will definitely command the soldiers to take down this woman.
He had seen before the real face of Long Jiaonan. The whole body of Long Jiaonan had been seen by him when she was shedding her skin and there was no makeup on this woman who had just crawled out from her skin. Now that she had regained her female getup, she looked completely different from the pretty young master of Dragon Rider Sect!
The soldiers were currently moving the corpses in the city and throwing them onto the cart before pushing the cart to bury them outside the city. Long Jiaonan followed behind them while crying, ”Sirs, is my father's corpse inside?”
”The few soldiers stopped and said, ”Little maiden, there are too many corpses in the city, we don't know which one is your father. Do you see him on the cart?”
Long Jiaonan took a look and shook his head, ”No.”
A soldier said, ”He's most likely in the burial mounds outside the city. General Yu ordered us to dig a few huge pits there to bury the corpses. All the corpses were moved there and they haven't been covered up. Does little maiden want to follow us there to have a look?”
Long Jiaonan gave her thanks and followed these soldiers to the burial mounds outside of the city. There was a huge pit dug up here which was dozens of yards deep and thousands of corpses were piled up here.
Long Jiaonan raised her head and saw dozens of such huge pits other than this huge pit in the burial mounds. Beside the pit, there were soldiers that were pushing the carts forward and dumping the corpses into the pit.
Long Jiaonan looked around and suddenly shouted, ”Father, father! Daughter is here to find you, if you can hear me, please answer me!”
She shouted a few times and those soldiers didn't know whether to laugh or cry, ”This woman has most likely gone crazy.”
At this moment, a weak voice came from a huge pit, ”I'm here, I'm currently shedding my skin but I was too heavily injured…”
The soldiers beside the huge pit were stupefied and an officer suddenly shouted, ”There's something wrong! Everyone, on your guards!”
When Long Jiaonan heard this voice, she gave a hidden smile, ”Xiao'hong.”
The incomparably tiny red snake hanging on her left ear stretched its body and dropped down from her ear. When it landed on the ground, its size increased all of a sudden and turned into a huge snake in a blink of an eye. Poisonous gas spewed out as it opened its mouth and the soldiers around the burial mounds collapsed here and there.
The huge snake slithered like wind and swallowed the soldiers one by one. Meanwhile Long Jiaonan walked into the pit and threw the corpses aside. She finally dug out the dragon king who was buried among the corpses.
”Daughter thought father had died!” Long Jiaonan chuckled.
