This passage did not go through the outer city. Instead, it led directly from the inner city to the outside world. What kind of passage could be so magical? It was the moat that had always existed.
They drained the moat and let the inner city residents walk along the riverbed. As long as they walked along the riverbed, they could reach the river outside the Holy Dragon City. They had to walk fast because the river would rise if they exceeded the time limit. Those who did not reach the shore would drown.
"Who came up with this stupid idea? It's so cruel …"
Even Dragon Fifth couldn't bear to listen any longer. They hadn't even started the battle yet, but how many people were they going to force to death? The officials of the Holy Dragon City were too inhumane. But on second thought, they were indeed not human.
If it were an ordinary river, of course, the Cultivation people would not drown. Moreover, they were members of the Dragons. Dragons were good at fighting in water. But the water in the moat was used to protect the city. It was the legendary stagnant water. Be it humans or dragons, their vitality would be sucked away if they were soaked in it.
It was fine for the young or the old members with high Cultivation because they were fast and could definitely escape. However, the young children and the elderly whose bodies had already deteriorated were moving too slowly. If no one helped him, he would probably die in the river, not even having the chance to see the Extraterrestrial Demons.
What should he do? Huang Youxue was anxious too. He did not want his people to die before they could escape. But what else could he do? He had to conserve his strength so that the warriors could survive first. Then, he arranged for the mounts to carry some of the young members away first.
After all, the young members could become new warriors when they grew up, while the old ones could only wait for death.
This problem did not exist on Du Feng's side because his subordinates were all young and strong warriors. Even some of the female members who had sneaked over were young. Occasionally, there would be a few older family members who could take care of them. After all, it was easy for two thousand young people to take care of eight or ten old people.
Actually, when he saw the old people on Huang Youxue's side being left behind, Du Feng's heart softened for a moment. He wondered if he should use his necklace small world to take them away.
However, in the next moment, he gave up on this idea. This was because the Elixir Emperor, Liu Fei, Murong Mansha, and so on were all his relatives living in the small world of the necklace. Moreover, there was a secret like the towering tree inside. If he really took in such a group of people, it would definitely leak out. He couldn't just kill them when he arrived at his destination.
Therefore, the best thing for him to do was not to solicit this matter. After all, protecting the clansmen was Huang Youxue's responsibility, not his.
Du Feng arranged the people in his territory very well. Even the young women didn't need to run errands. They just followed Mo Ziren and Draconis in the shuttle. Although the shuttle was not big, it was enough to carry them.
"We have to speed up. Look, the Leopard Dragons are already out of sight."
The Leopard Dragons, which was next to Du Feng's territory, didn't have many members, but all of them were warriors. They didn't need mounts, and their running speed was incomparably fast. Running along the riverbed, they were already out of sight.
Huang Youxue also felt that they couldn't go on like this. If they kept waiting for those who were slow, no one would be able to get out alive. Actually, the warriors, especially the cavalry, could go even faster.
He steeled his heart and asked the warriors to speed up. After all, Du Feng was also waiting for them not far away. They had agreed to cooperate together, so they couldn't drag him down as well.
When Du Feng saw that Huang Youxue's side had increased their speed, he asked his people to speed up as well. It didn't take long for them to overtake a group of people.
This group of people wasn't the members of the Leopard Dragons, but members of another group, the Pig Dragons. There were also quite a number of Pig Dragons, because their race was especially fertile. Under the circumstances of dragging a family, it was impossible for them to move fast.
Therefore, after Huang Youxue's side gave up on some people, they actually overtook them.
At this time, no one wanted to die, including those old people. They knew that they wouldn't be able to keep up, so they simply changed into their original forms. First, the group of old people from the Fire Tiger Dragons on Huang Youxue's side wanted to use the tiger dragon form to speed up.
The tiger dragon form was divided into two forms: the tiger body with dragon scales and the dragon body with tiger head. The first form was basically a tiger. However, it had dragon scales, a dragon's tail, and legs. It was quite fast in this form. The other form was the body of a dragon, but with the head of a tiger, such a slender body was at a disadvantage on the riverbed.
"No!"
Huang Youxue wanted to stop them, but it was too late. The members of the tiger head and dragon body were directly sucked in by the riverbed, like a magnet sucking in iron. They were so tightly sucked that they didn't even have a chance to struggle.
The reason why this river was called a moat was that its water was stagnant, and the bottom of the river could trap dragons, so the residents of the inner city couldn't slip out. If they maintained their human form, the area where their feet touched the riverbed was very small, and the commander felt that their steps were a little heavy.
Once they turned into a dragon, such a long body would produce a huge suction force, and they would be stuck to the bottom of the river like plasticine, unable to move at all.
Those members realized that the situation was not right and wanted to change back to human form. But this was even more troublesome, because their bodies had been sucked in, and their heads and tails were very far away. If they wanted to shrink from such a long body, their bodies had to shrink inwards.
At this time, their heads and legs were already stuck, and they couldn't move freely at all. Once they produced the power to shrink inwards, the result would be that their bodies would be separated.
"Puchi … Puchi …"
Heads were pulled off one by one, and blood and flesh flew everywhere. The scene was too horrible to look at. Dragons without claws and tigers without teeth were used to describe the miserable scene of tigers and dragons reaching old age. At this time, the old people from the Fire Tiger Dragons were in such a situation. No matter how brave they were when they were young, their bodies were declining and they were struggling on the verge of death.
The situation of the tiger body with dragon scales was much better. After all, the tiger body was not so long, and the belly was not so close to the ground. However, in the case of their tiger bodies, it was more difficult for them to take a step, and their speed was not as fast as maintaining their original human form, so they quickly changed back.
After going back and forth like this, he didn't have much physical strength left in the first place, so he didn't have much strength left. One by one, they supported each other and stood where they were, sweating profusely. Seeing the large group walking further and further away, they were helpless.
On the other hand, the members of the Pig Dragons saw their miserable state and got into shape. Those members who wanted to transform were so scared that they didn't dare to move.
