Clang!
Ji Ye had to admit that it made a wise choice.
In the next moment, a black flying sword that was filled with killing intent had passed where it had been.
The extraordinary power released by the sword cut a gap that was a hundred meters long in the storm between it and Ji Ye.
Thanks to the Silver-winged Yaksha's high speed, which was twice as fast as the two Land Yakshas that could catch up to horses, it was able to dodge the attack of the Black Sky Primordial Chaos Sword!
Also, because the distance between them had reached the limit of the Black Sky Primordial Chaos Sword, it couldn't follow the yaksha into the sky.
Moreover, it was even faster than Ji Ye when he rode on a cloud. Theoretically speaking, even if Ji Ye used Distance Reduction to chase after it, the yaksha could still fly higher to deal with it.
However, when the Silver-winged Yaksha was about to fly away …
Sizzle!
A streak of silver light that was mixed with purple streaked across the night sky and chased after the Silver-winged Yaksha whose wings were also covered in silver light.
After Ji Ye dispersed the Dragon Aura Cloud, Dian Wei, who had arrived on foot, raised his hand and threw his Thunder Halberd at the Silver-winged Yaksha in the sky!
Boom!
The silver light was extremely fast. After all, the Thunder Halberd was a tangible lightning bolt. Even the Silver-winged Nightfiend was unable to react in time and was struck in the back by the Thunder Halberd.
There was a hole the size of a bowl on its back, and one of its silver wings was destroyed by the power of lightning. It fell from the sky at a high speed. By the time Ji Ye reached it with Distance Reduction, he found that it was already dead.
["You participated in the killing of a Flying Yaksha (Extraordinary Rank-6, Commander). EXP gained: 1,050. Honor gained: 10!"]
"It was Dian Wei's fault. I should've kept it alive for interrogation!"
Dian Wei, who followed him here and saw the situation, said with self-blame.
"It's fine. You did the right thing …"
Ji Ye stared at the body of the Flying Yaksha, but he didn't blame Dian Wei at all.
This was because a Stone of Civilization had appeared in the white light of the spoils of war that the dead yaksha was giving off!
Apart from that, there was also an item that looked like a whistle that caught people's attention.
[Yaksha Bone Whistle]
[Rarity: Extraordinary Rank-5]
Level: Excellent (Rare)
[Description: A communication tool of the Yaksha Clan. It was made from a piece of its own bone. Only the Yakshas themselves can use it. It can send out a special sound wave that can only be heard by the Yaksha Clan for dozens of kilometers.]
"Players? Outsiders?!"
This undoubtedly proved that it was a player, and it also proved that these "yakshas" were aliens and not monsters.
It also meant that an alien settlement had appeared near Dragon City as they had expected. Also, the yaksha race, which was recorded on Earth, was much more intelligent than the Forest Monsters and the Sludge Monsters during the Ten-Species Competition.
Previously, the two Earthbound Yakshas could have quickly caught up to the warhorse in front of them, but they kept following behind it. Clearly, it was intentional. Their goal was nothing more than to follow behind the warhorse to find the human's "foothold."
And this person, who should be the leader, the Flying Yaksha, had previously killed the yellow-scarfed man's other companion. It was probably to increase the psychological pressure on the yellow-scarfed man.
Or perhaps because they had entered Dragon City, they believed that this was the human's gathering spot.
Therefore, it killed one of them as food without any worries.
It was even possible that it did that because it wanted to lag behind its two companions. That way, when the people of Dragon City came to their rescue, the two Land Yakshas could be used as cannon fodder to test the enemy.
In the meantime, it would be able to obtain information and have a safe distance to run away.
If that was the case, it was definitely the right thing for Dian Wei to "kill" him instantly like he did.
After all, the Flying Yaksha did know the location of Dragon City, and it wasn't just the location. This was because the Commander-grade Flying Yaksha's expression changed drastically the moment it saw him, which meant that it probably had a piece of detection-type equipment or a talent skill like Li Qing!
Coupled with the bone whistle that could send messages, if he didn't "kill" it instantly, even if it was heavily injured, it wouldn't be able to survive.
It was also very likely that he would blow the whistle to inform the yakshas in his settlement.
As for the relevant information, he could also obtain it from the human who was being chased by the Yaksha.
"Who are you? Where did you come from? "
Together with Dian Wei, who had picked up the body of the Silver-winged Yaksha, they stopped the Dragon Cloud in front of the human who had broken his leg after falling off his horse. Ji Ye asked in a deep voice.
"Immortal, my name is Li Dayan … I'm a scout under Black Mountain's Great Marshal Zhang Niujiao … I accidentally trespassed this place!"
The human who had a yellow turban on his head lay on the ground. His forehead was covered in sweat because of the excruciating pain from his broken leg, but he didn't dare to breathe and spoke in a stammering voice.
Because of Ji Ye's Cloud Riding, flying swords, and sword auras, and the daytime environment in Dragon City that was completely different from the surroundings, the human didn't dare to breathe.
Obviously, he had regarded Ji Ye as a deity.
Besides, even if Ji Ye wasn't a god, Dian Wei, who was holding the corpse of the Silver-winged Yaksha in his hand, was enough to make him tremble in fear.
"Huh? Zhang Niujiao is from the Black Mountain Army?"
At this moment, a surprised voice came from one side.
It was Sister Yun, who was holding the Snow Spear. She was riding a silver horse that emitted a faint white light. Its speed was not inferior to that of the Flying Yaksha. She arrived beside the three of them.
The scouts came from the west, which was the periphery of the technology center that Zhao Yun was responsible for.
"Do you know the Black Mountain Army, Zilong?"
Ji Ye turned around and looked at Zhao Yun, who was riding the horse that he named "Jade Lion".
"Master Ji, the Black Mountain Army is active in the territory of Changshan, my hometown. Apart from Zhang Niujiao, their leader is Chu Yan. He's from Zhending, Changshan, just like me. He's good at martial arts and is very agile. He's known as' Flying Swallow '.
"The Black Mountain Army was originally a rebel army under the Yellow Turban Army's banner after the Yellow Turban Army was wiped out by the imperial court. Strictly speaking, it can be considered a revival of the Yellow Turban Army and has always been a nuisance to General Sun!"
Zhao Yun nodded and said.
"So, they're from the Yellow Turban Army?"
Most people didn't have much of an impression of the Black Mountain Army, but the Yellow Turban Army was very famous.
Ji Ye finally understood why the man's head was tied with a piece of yellow cloth.
"Well … General, you're from Changshan, too? I'm from Changshan, and I've heard of General Gongsun before! "
When the scouts on the ground heard Zhao Yun's words, they immediately became excited.
"How did you get here? How did you get chased by those yakshas?"
However, Ji Ye interrupted the scout's attempt to chat with Zhao Yun about his hometown.
"Ten days ago, when we were returning to the camp, we suddenly fell into a fog. When the fog cleared, we found that we couldn't recognize our surroundings at all …"
Ji Ye listened to the Yellow Turban scout's confession and analyzed the information at the same time.
Obviously, the Yellow Turban Army had suddenly traveled to the Land of Inheritance, which was very similar to the time travel of the four villains in Water Margin.
Ten days was the time when Dragon City had successfully advanced and become the final destination of A Hundred Vying Barges!
That meant that they had been summoned to the Land of Inheritance because Dragon City had become the final destination. Although the Yellow Turban Army was technically the villain, they didn't have a mission to attack Dragon City.
"Because the army's food supplies are running out, the General sent us to search for food yesterday. At sunset today, we found a county called Guobei County. Chief Yu left some men in the city, and we went back to report to the General. We didn't expect to be chased by these monsters on the way, and we ran away in panic … "
Fear appeared in the Yellow Turban scout's eyes as he said that, and his face even turned blue.
There had been a dozen people in his team, but they had been chased by the yakshas like a cat playing with a mouse. Now, he was the only one who survived.
"They're dead! They're all dead!"
As a result, the scout's expression became a little chaotic. He lowered his head and muttered to himself.
"Wait, you found a county? What county is it called? "
Ji Ye's expression suddenly changed. He stared at him and asked.
"Guobei … Guobei County …"
The Yellow Turban Army officer of the Black Mountain Yellow Turban Army laid on the ground with his head lowered.
As a Transcendent warrior, even though Ji Ye wasn't targeting him, he still felt a strong sense of fear.
"Yellow Turban, Black Mountain, Guobei County … Could it be …"
Ji Ye seemed to be thinking, and he had a vague idea.
"Then, where is this Guobei County, and where did you run into the yakshas?"
Ji Ye continued asking questions.
"In … West … Southwest … About 15 kilometers … Ow!"
However, the Yellow Turban Army scout who had been keeping his head down began to stutter.
As he spoke, he suddenly raised his head, and there was a layer of fuzzy green air on his skin.
The whites of his eyes had turned gray, and there was a dim green light in his pupils. He let out beast-like roars of pain, and his face was filled with chaos and rage.
"Kill …"
Then, he raised the crossbow in his hand and aimed at Ji Ye.
"Humph!"
Ji Ye didn't even attack directly. He merely frowned and released a wisp of Dragon Aura, which shattered the crossbow in the scout's hand. Even the scout himself was knocked out by the pressure of the Dragon Aura.
"Is it some kind of mind-controlling poison?
"Is it because the yaksha's blood splashed into his mouth?"
Then, Ji Ye pointed a finger at the center of the Yellow Turban scout's eyebrows.
A white light enveloped his body and disappeared in a flash. The green gas on the Yellow Turban Army's forehead turned into black smoke and dissipated.
However, he was still unconscious. He was probably exhausted from running all the way, and his mind was severely damaged.
"Take him back and keep an eye on him!"
"Elder Zhou, Elder Meng … Please go to the conference hall."
Ji Ye gestured at the two Iron Buddhas who had caught up with him to carry the scout back to Dragon City. At the same time, he summoned the nuclear personnel of the strategy department for a meeting in the communication channel.
