Half a day later, Yun Sheng brought close to a thousand Dark North Guards and rushed to Grand Emperor City.
Yun Sheng was certain that Baby Sheep should have arrived at Grand Emperor City. However, once she got close to Grand Emperor City, she realized that something was wrong in the city.
The gate of Grand Emperor City was wide open. A pink figure immediately flew out from the top of the city when it saw Yun Sheng and rushed into Yun Sheng's arms.
"Dear master, Baby Sheep has completed its mission. The people of Grand Emperor City have already surrendered. Only a few people from the City Lord's Mansion and the Soft-Legged Shrimp Prince managed to escape. "Bobo Sheep rattled as it narrated the events of last night when it assisted Yuan Bupo and the others in the fierce battle with Li Shao and the others. Around dawn, it took over Grand Emperor City.
"The seizure of the city has been completed. Was it done by Yuan Bupo?" Yun Sheng was shocked.
Yun Sheng wasn't doubting Yuan Bupo's ability. It was just that with Li Shao around, it wasn't easy for Yuan Bupo to take down Grand Emperor City.
"Baby Sheep, that's because the omnipotent and invincible Universe Deity Baby Sheep was there. Li Shao, that coward, was so scared that he couldn't use his magic properly when he saw me." Baby Sheep would never admit that when Li Shao saw him, he had spat out a huge fireball and almost burned the curly hair that he was so proud of.
Just thinking about that made Baby Sheep grind his teeth. That damn Li Shao. If he were to meet him, he would definitely torture him to death and cripple him!
The surprise attack was generally successful. However, there was a lapse in concentration. Yuan Bupo didn't expect there to be so many places in the mayor's residence. With the help of a few mages, Li Shao brought a group of ladies from the mayor's residence and escaped.
Yuan Bupo led a few guards from the Yuan family and Icefire Luan to chase after them. They hadn't returned yet.
"Long Feng, follow me to chase after the people from the Xuan family. The rest of the Dark North Guards will enter Grand Emperor City and deploy them carefully." Yun Sheng understood that in order to lure the mayor of Grand Emperor City back, they had to capture the people from the mayor's residence, especially Young Mistress Qing and Xuan Meimei.
Otherwise, there was no point in seizing the Grand Emperor City.
Yun Sheng immediately summoned Xiao Hei. Along with Popping Sheep and Long Feng, they followed the aura left behind by Yuan Bupo and the others.
In a vast field five kilometers away from Grand Emperor City, Li Shao and a few ladies from the City Lord's Mansion broke through the encirclement under the cover of a group of mages.
"Tsk, has that brat Yuan Bu Po gone mad? He's been chasing after us the entire time. Hasn't he already conquered the Grand Emperor City? Could it be that he's planning to kill us all?" Li Shao was very pleased with himself as the son-in-law of the City Lord.
He already knew that Xuan Meimei had a crush on Yuan Bu Po for many years.
Although he had hooked up with Xuan Meimei in the end, he knew that Xuan Meimei was still worried about Yuan Bupo.
Yuan Bu Po's strength was improving day by day. Li Shao was secretly jealous. He took advantage of the fact that City Master Di Hong was not around to ostracize Yuan Bu Po.
Li Shao did not expect that Yuan Bu Po, who had always been interested in power and status, would launch a sneak attack at night.
Yuan Bu Po's strength was also very strong. With the seventh chapter of the Di Hong Song and the Icefire Luan, if Madam Qing did not know of a secret passage, the three of them would have escaped under the cover of a few loyal guards. They would have been captured alive.
Now that Grand Emperor City had fallen, they did not have any magic beasts that could travel day and night. They could only rely on magic and the strength of their legs to escape.
"Second Prince, where are we escaping to? Why don't we go to the nearby Tangyuan Town to hide?" Madam Qing panted. She was just a weak woman. Her magic and fighting energy were not very good.
However, she was more worried about her daughter, Xuan Meimei. Xuan Meimei was pregnant now. Running around was not good for the fetus.
"We can't go to Tangyuan. Crown Prince Li Cheng has a good relationship with the Yuan Family. Who knows if Li Cheng and Yuan Bu Po will work together. By then, we'll be trapped. We'll go to Zhou State and look for the City Lord and the Marquis of Jiayuan. The Yuan Family won't be happy for long. "Li Shao gritted his teeth.
He had long lost his power in Tang Yuan, and the Grand Emperor City had already become his last straw of hope.
Since Yuan Bu Po had suddenly betrayed them, Li Shao thought that it would be best to seek refuge with the City Lord of Grand Emperor City.
By then, as long as the City Lord of Grand Emperor City returned, he would definitely be able to take back Grand Emperor City and kill Yuan Bu Po.
"You won't be able to reach Zhou State." Above the Nine Heavens, an icy blue light pierced through the clouds like a sharp arrow. It instantly arrived in front of Li Shao and the others.
The Icefire Luan circled in the air. Yuan Bu Po stood on its back. At that moment, he frowned and looked at the three people who were at the end of their rope.
"Yuan Bu Po, don't go too far." Li Shao knew that Yuan Bu Po's strength was not ordinary. He could not let his guard down.
Behind him, the magic wings flapped. As he chanted, a few magic fire arrows emitted a dazzling golden light. Suddenly, they turned into four fire snakes that broke through the holes and charged towards Yuan Bu Po and the Icefire Luan.
"High-level magic, Dance of the Fire Snakes."
On the ground, Xuan Meimei and Madam Qing witnessed the battle between the two. Their eyes widened and their hearts raced.
Yuan Bu Po and Li Shao were rare magic geniuses in the mainland.
The fire snakes ignited the air.
However, Yuan Bu Po did not retreat. He waved the short flute in his hand. The originally emerald green flute released a faint water-type magic element.
Clang!
The four fire snakes were blocked by an ice wall that broke through the air.
The ice wall was not connected to the ground. It was like a huge sword that cut the four fire snakes into two.
The ice-cold water-type magic element froze the fire snakes into ice cubes instantly. They fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
Li Shao was stunned. He did not expect Yuan Bu Po's magic control to be so shocking.
Seeing this, Xuan Meimei ignored Madam Qing's dissuasion. She held her waist and staggered forward. She begged, "Brother Bupo, you and I have been childhood sweethearts. Can't you just let us live? You already have the Grand Emperor City. Please let Li Shao go for the sake of the child in my stomach. The child can't be born without a father. "
As Xuan Meimei spoke, hot tears rolled down her cheeks. She knelt down and begged Yuan Bu Po.
The Xuan Family was deeply rooted in the Grand Emperor City. If they were killed, there would be a bloodbath when the Governor returned.
Yuan Bu Po hesitated. Just as Yuan Bu Po was hesitating, Xuan Meimei and Li Shao looked at each other. Their eyes were filled with venom.
As the saying went, "A woman's heart is the most vicious". It was referring to people like Xuan Meimei.
She had loved Yuan Bu Po before. However, after Yuan Bu Po treated her good intentions as nothing for Yun Sheng's sake, Xuan Meimei hated Yuan Bu Po to the core.
She begged softly and gave Li Shao a look that signaled that she was ready.
Li Shao smiled sinisterly.
Other than magic, Li Shao was best at using underhanded means.
He knew that he could not kill Yuan Bu Po with magic. Therefore, he secretly took out a magic tool from his pocket.
