"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"
Ji Ke swung his Heavenly Phoenix Divine Spear, sending out spear shadows that covered the sky and divine fire that filled the sky.
In an instant, more than half of the city guards were killed, and even their divine bodies were burned to ashes.
Only three city guards were left, and they were lucky enough to survive.
However, they were already scared out of their wits. They all screamed and turned to escape toward Youdu.
Ji Ke didn't chase after them and allowed them to escape. He turned around and continued flying south.
The three city guards escaped 20,000 miles away in a panic. When they saw that Ji Ke didn't chase after them, they panted in shock.
After they calmed down, they immediately sent out a signal arrow for help and reported the incident to the city guard governor.
Coincidentally, the city guard governor was Qian Yuan, the young master who didn't get along with Yuwen Ji.
Originally, with his abilities, he wasn't qualified to sit in this position and lead tens of thousands of city guards.
However, he was a top-notch noble, and his family was powerful. The elders in his family forced him to take this position.
After the news of Yuwen Ji stealing the divine bead spread, Qian Yuan was in a good mood and took pleasure in his misfortune.
He was no longer as lazy as before. He actually brought people to patrol the city gates every day to search for Yuwen Ji.
If he could capture Yuwen Ji personally and hand him over to Commander Minghe, that would be wonderful.
Stepping on his opponent to rise to the top and seeing Yuwen Ji being executed while he received the reward for his meritorious service. Was there anything better than that?
When Ji Ke killed the guard commander, Qian Yuan was in the palace near the south city gate.
He also saw the divine light that filled the sky and heard a loud bang.
Just as he flew out of the south city gate to check out what was going on, the guard captain sent him a message.
After reading the message, Qian Yuan frowned and revealed a look of astonishment.
'Yuwen Ji, this bastard, is actually so scheming and shrewd to hide from everyone?
Everyone thought that he had long escaped from Youdu and rushed back to Soaring Wind Region.
Who would have thought that he had been hiding in Youdu all this time!
Only now that everyone has let down their guard did he escape in the middle of the night!
Luckily, Commander Wang saw the flaw and sacrificed his life to delay Yuwen Ji's footsteps.
This Prince's chance to make a contribution has come! "
Qian Yuan held the communication jade slip in his hand and muttered to himself excitedly. His heart was full of expectations.
However, he did not let the excitement get to his head.
The death of the guard commander made him realize that Yuwen Ji was not simple.
At the very least, this fellow who could steal the Divine Orb was definitely not a good-for-nothing.
He was a hidden expert. His previous image of a trash was all a disguise!
Thinking of this, Qian Yuan hesitated.
"I have just reached the Second Level of the Divine King Realm. In terms of strength, talent, and foundation, I am just a little bit stronger than the guard commander.
If he was killed by Yuwen Ji so quickly, then I'm definitely no match for Yuwen Ji.
Even if I did my best, I would only be able to stall for time, and I would be seriously injured by Yuwen Ji.
It's almost impossible for me to catch Yuwen Ji alone! "
Qian Yuan originally wanted to look for helpers and ask for the help of two stronger mid-level God Kings.
However, if that was the case, they would have to share the credit.
Even if he could make a contribution and receive a reward, it would be greatly reduced.
He was very unwilling to do so.
Therefore, he only hesitated for a moment before deciding to take the risk.
"I'll chase after Yuwen Ji first and deal with him to stall for time.
On the other hand, I need to send a message to Commander Minghe … No, Senior Commander is still in Soaring Wind Region.
Then I can only inform Marshal Blood Prison!
As long as I can stall for time, Marshal Blood Prison will arrive, and Yuwen Ji will be dead!
In this way, the credit will only belong to me and Marshal Blood Prison.
Marshal Blood Prison is a senior expert, a Ninth Level God King. He will definitely disdain to snatch the credit from me.
Therefore, the credit will still belong to me, hahahaha … "
Qian Yuan's analysis made him feel enlightened. He admired his own intelligence and wisdom.
He was in a good mood and immediately took out the communication jade slip to report the situation to Marshal Blood Prison.
Then, he brought a few guard captains and left Youdu at lightning speed, rushing to the South.
…
Ji Tianxing had been hiding near the North City Gate, secretly observing the situation.
Ji Ke purposely revealed his identity. This was the first step of the plan.
Killing the guard captain, blowing up the matter and alerting the City Guard Governor was the second step.
As expected, after a short while, Ji Tianxing saw Qian Yuan bringing a few guard captains and hurriedly flying out of the South City Gate to chase after Ji Ke.
Up to now, everything was going according to plan.
After Ji Ke killed Qian Yuan, the matter would blow up further.
By then, the news of Yuwen Ji escaping in the middle of the night would spread.
The God King experts who stayed behind in Youdu would most likely be lured to the South and fight to kill Ji Ke.
As for whether Marshal Blood Prison would go personally, that would depend on the will of heaven.
Once many God King experts surrounded Ji Ke, she would abandon Yuwen Ji's body and escape back to Nine Heavens Ten Jue Tower in a moment of life and death.
This was Ji Tianxing's plan.
He was sure that this method would definitely lure many God Kings away.
However, Marshal Blood Prison was an uncertain factor, and he wasn't confident.
At this moment, he still didn't know that Qian Yuan, who didn't get along with Yuwen Ji, had secretly helped him.
…
The night was dark, and the cold wind was like a knife.
Qian Yuan brought four guard captains and rushed to the South at the fastest speed to chase after the fleeing Yuwen Ji.
Along the way, Qian Yuan was full of anticipation and was in high spirits.
The four guard captains were full of worry and couldn't help but ask, "Governor Qian, are we going to capture Yuwen Ji alone?
Rumor has it that the kid destroyed the Creation Altar and stole the divine bead.
Just now, he even killed the guard captain.
From this, we can see that he is very powerful. If we go, we will just be sending ourselves to our deaths. "
Qian Yuan frowned and pretended to be dignified as he reprimanded, "We are enforcing the law impartially and helping Tianxing. What's there to be afraid of?
How can we destroy our own morale and boost others' prestige?
Besides, we only need to deal with Yuwen Ji and try to delay as much time as possible.
I have already reported this to Marshal Blood Prison. We just need to hold on until he arrives. "
Hearing him say this, the four guard captains were slightly at ease.
Unknowingly, fifteen minutes passed.
Everyone flew a hundred thousand miles to the South, far away from Youdu.
Qian Yuan was indeed capable. With the divine arts passed down in his family, he was actually able to track the aura of Yuwen Ji's divine power.
Finally, they caught up to Yuwen Ji in the sky above Great Clear River.
Yuwen Ji, who was wearing a black robe and a cape, had a messy aura of divine power. He looked like he was injured.
His flying speed wasn't fast, and he kept looking around like a bird startled by the twang of a bow.
Seeing this, Qian Yuan and the other guard captains dispelled the doubts in their hearts. The worry and fear in their hearts immediately dissipated by more than half.
"Hehehe … As expected, everyone is spreading false rumors and overestimating Yuwen Ji.
This king has said long ago that he is just a good-for-nothing who can't be shown in public.
I thought he was a monster and strong!
I didn't expect him to only have this much ability! "
Qian Yuan sneered and brought the four guard captains to attack.
