After the battle on the military field, Zhao Xingshu and the other demon leaders who had escaped were fully aware of the strength of Bai Xiaowen's team. They were completely different from the two groups of people they had defeated when they were patrolling the outside world. (That's right, the two A-level battle teams of Xinpu and Longze).
Therefore, they had to chase after them! If they didn't, they would join forces with the Yuwen Huaji brothers.
Bai Xiaowen simply cleaned up the battlefield and threw the newly seized Resentment Soul Stone to Yang Guang. Then, he rode on the Wrath Claw and chased after them with Li Shuyi.
The other members of the White Phoenix team also summoned their elite wolves and accelerated their pursuit. The five of them rode on three wolves. Han Xu rode alone, so it wasn't a big problem.
Speaking of Resentment Soul Stones, among the demon leaders who had been killed, Sima Dekan was one of the Ten Thieves named by Empress Xiao. Yuanshi Sheren Yuan Min and Yuanshi Yang Lang General Meng Jing were also part of the Ten Thieves.
After absorbing three Resentment Soul Stones, the true spirit of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty had become more solid. It looked no different from a normal ghost.
However, this was not enough. They had only killed five of the Ten Thieves. Yuwen Huaji, whom Yang Guang hated the most, was still hiding in the Wanxiang Palace.
Next, the White Phoenix team relied on the advantage of the speed of their wolves to chase after the escaping Zhao Xingshu and the Li brothers.
Compared to the satisfying battle of the legions, the current pursuit was somewhat unpleasant. The enemy didn't want to fight with them. Instead, they wanted to escape back to the Wanxiang Palace in the center of the northern part of the city.
As the pursuers, not only did they have to find a way to catch up with the enemy and make them stay, they also had to cut off the enemy's path in advance.
Fortunately, Bai Xiaowen had the bird's eye view of Jiangdu City provided by Qiao Rui. With his computer-like deductions, he intercepted the enemy from the shortcut and got twice the result with half the effort.
Zhao Xingshu and the other demon leaders felt like f * cking a dog.
Why? Why is it that an outsider like you is more familiar with the geographical information of Jiangdu City than us garrisons?
We have already been stationed in Jiang Capital for more than two years.
No matter how unwilling the escaping demons were, the White Phoenix team still blocked them one by one and successfully killed them.
This process undoubtedly took a lot of time. During this period, the Wanxiang Palace also sent out some scouting teams to scout the situation. When they encountered the White Phoenix Battle Squad, they did not even have the chance to escape.
Among these scouts, there were some familiar faces of Emperor Yang of Sui. For example, there was a lieutenant named "Linghu Xingda". Although he was not one of the Ten Thieves, Emperor Yang of Sui Yang Guang was still furious when he saw him. He slammed the coffin lid and asked Bai Xiaowen to avenge him.
It turned out that Linghu Xingda was the executioner who personally hanged Emperor Yang of Sui.
Bai Xiaowen felt a little strange. "You didn't list the executioner who killed you as one of the Ten Thieves?
Empress Xiao sighed. She knew the Emperor very well. Yang Guang was high and mighty, how could he pay attention to these lowly officers? He only saw them as the claws and teeth of Yuwen Huaji, Sima Dekan, and the others.
When Linghu Xingda committed the crime, Emperor Yang of Sui most likely did not know the name of this officer.
In other words, it had to be at least the level of the head of the palace, Xu Hongren, for Emperor Yang of Sui to bear a grudge.
Speaking of Xu Hongren, he also led a scouting team to investigate. After bumping into Bai Xiaowen, he also could not escape. The head of the palace who personally dragged Emperor Yang of Sui out was finally executed.
Bai Xiaowen pondered for a moment. He still could not determine Yang Guang's level and asked carefully, "How was His Majesty's strength when he was alive?"
If Yang Guang was a leader, would he be pulled out from under the bed by an elite leader? Would he be strangled to death by another elite officer on the spot? This was too embarrassing.
Empress Xiao shook her head and said, "His Majesty is the master of the world. He only needs to control people. He does not need to personally fight. Strength is not important."
Alright, Empress Xiao avoided the topic. Bai Xiaowen had a rough idea. It seemed that Emperor Yang of Sui was just a weakling when he was alive. Of course, Bai Xiaowen did not completely believe Empress Xiao's words. He was not that naive.
...
Plop.
The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard. Qianniu, Li Xiaozhong, who had transformed into a leader of the demons, died under Li Shuyi's sword.
A gray Resentment Soul Stone was formed.
"It's finally done. Now, we have killed seven of the Ten Thieves. There are only three leaders of the Wan Xiang Palace left. "Li Shuyi panted.
Although Qianniu and Qianniu were brothers, Yang Guang only remembered Li Xiaoben. The younger brother, Li Xiaozhi, was not one of the Ten Thieves.
Bai Xiaowen handed the Resentment Soul Stone to Ghost Palace Maid, who respectfully passed it to Yang Guang. Yang Guang swallowed it in one gulp.
"Fellow righteous Taoists, don't let your guard down. The Ten Thieves listed by His Majesty are the ones he hates the most. There are many other powerful rebels who are not included in the Ten Thieves. For example, Zhao Xingshu, whom we just killed, and Zhang Kai. "Empress Xiao reminded.
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly. "Now, in the Wan Xiang Palace, other than the remaining three Thieves, are there any other powerful demons? Does the Empress know? "
Empress Xiao thought for a while and shook her head. "I have lived in the palace for a long time and am not familiar with the officials in the palace. However, the two Fu Xilang, Li Fu and Niu Fangyu, who were in charge of the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box for His Majesty, also participated in the rebellion. They were affected by the aura of the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box. After they transformed into demons, they probably improved more than ordinary people. "
Bai Xiaowen understood. Once again, he silently checked his status panel.
On the panel, the influence of the Yin Qi brought by the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box had reached 20%! This meant that they had been in Jiang Capital for 16 hours.
There was still plenty of time, so Bai Xiaowen was not in a hurry to kill his way into the Wan Xiang Palace.
The battle had just ended, so it was better for him to take a break and recover his stamina. He would wait for the cooldown time of his ultimate move.
In the previous battle, not only did Delifa's corpse revive, Bai Xiaowen's Commanding Roar and other skills were activated, even Li Shuyi had no choice but to activate the active activation effect of Unrivaled Demons when he was surrounded by Meng Jing's hooks. Other skills such as Cecilia's "Hunting Moment" and Qiao Rui's "Spirit of the Falcon" were all used up.
With his current exhausted body, it was still very dangerous for him to face more than three demon leaders in the Wan Xiang Palace.
Although Bai Xiaowen had many strategic items, he would save them if he could. Even Yi Deng's Horn, a gold item that could recharge itself, would not be used if he could. After all, Yi Deng's Horn could recharge for a month. What if he needed to use it later?
The White Phoenix team led Empress Xiao and the others to hide in a run-down wine shop in Jiang Capital. With Qiao Rui and Bai Xiaowen's double spiritual shielding, the demons in Jiang Capital would not be able to discover them. Besides, the demons were in a state of panic, so it was even more impossible for them to organize a tight patrol net.
