With Empress Yin and the Priest chasing after them and a dense wave of Mongolian cavaliers around them, no matter how great Kuo Zhong and Xu Zhiling were, it was impossible for them to successfully seize the horses and escape from the camp.
But Happy's actions created a chance for them. Without another word, the two of them jumped over the dumbfounded Mongolians, seized their horses, and left. They did not give Empress Yin and the Priest the chance to chase after them.
"Haha!"
"Awesome!"
"Brother Happy, come out!"
Xu Zhiling and Kuo Zhong had just successfully charged out of the camp, and both of them could not help but shout out loud.
Before his voice faded away, a loud bang rose, and the Mongolian logistics camp instantly burst into commotion. Countless shocked and enraged shouts rose into the air.
"Bastard!"
"Cunning Chinese!"
"Catch him! Don't let him go! "" Put out the fire! Quickly find water to put out the fire!! "
The two of them turned their heads and saw a thick cloud of black smoke rising into the sky from the yurt in the center of the camp where the provisions were stored. The blazing fire made them feel the heat inside even though they had rushed out.
Thick smoke billowed.
One-third of the camp was engulfed in smoke. Judging from the intensity of the flames, the entire Mongolian yurt should have been set ablaze by the Thunderbolt Fire Bomb.
The Mongolian soldiers were like headless flies. They ran around in terror in search of water, but unfortunately for them, there was no water on the plains.
"Well done!"
Kuo Zhong's face was flushed with excitement. "Haha, I knew that kid would definitely do that!"
But Xu Zhiling did not have high hopes for Happy. There was unease and anxiety on his face. "It's naturally good that you completed the quest, but you burned the Mongolian army's supplies right under Empress Yin's nose. The evil cult will definitely fly into a rage. Brother Happy, it'll be even more difficult for you to escape from Empress Yin's claws."
"Don't worry, this brat has Nine Yang Divine Skill protecting him and Shifting Stars. He's like a cockroach that won't die. Empress Yin might not be able to capture him!"
Kuo Zhong chuckled.
"We might end up going for wool and come home shorn. Happy might end up learning Empress Yin and the Priest's martial arts."
"…"
Xu Zhiling's face froze.
However, Xu Zhiling would never have thought that Kuo Zhong's words would really come true.
…
Before Empress Yin could get close to him, he resolutely jumped to the center of the yurt and used his fastest speed to detonate Thunderous Fire Scale Bullet.
The Thunderbolt Phosphorous Fire Bullet was a kind of extremely violent gunpowder. Its burning ability was extremely strong …
After the explosion, dense flames quickly covered the area within a radius of 50 meters. The Mongolian yurts were instantly ignited, and the rations that came into contact with the flames directly turned into a raging fire.
Whatever it touched, it would burn …
This was Phosphorescence!
Even Empress Yin did not expect that Happy would be so ruthless. He was surrounded at the center, but he still dared to fight with his life on the line, and he even threw himself into the sea of fire.
"Damn it!"
"When I catch you, I will definitely make you suffer a fate worse than death!" Empress Yin gritted her teeth and stared at Happy, who was in the sea of fire and smoke.
"Get some water!!"
"Get some water to put out the fire!!"
"Where are you guys going … Don't move. Surround the fire for me!"
Demon General Zhao Deyan was also so angry that his nose nearly went crooked. He continuously ordered people outside the fire to save food and water to extinguish the fire.
It was a pity …
There was too little water in the camp to extinguish the phosphorescence.
When the fire on this side became slightly weaker, the other side would immediately burn over, and putting out the fire was completely ineffective.
In the end, he could only order his people to surround the fire and not let Happy break out.
However …
With Nine Yang Divine Skill protecting him, the high temperature did not pose any threat to Happy. As for the smoke, while it was uncomfortable, as long as he closed his eyes and used his spirit sense to investigate the area, it would not be a problem for him.
Instead, due to the obstruction of the sea of fire, Empress Yin, Demon General, the Priest, and the others could not enter the sea of fire even if their faces were red with rage and they cursed nonstop.
Happy immediately held his breath and patiently stood in the hot sea of fire while he calmly observed the movements around him.
Smoke tumbled about, and the flames burned with loud whooshing sounds.
A red protective membrane that absorbed the flames appeared around Happy's body.
He did not care that his entire body was covered by the thick smoke and was charred black by the smoke. He just stood still on the rations that had yet to be ignited and watched the situation outside quietly.
"Cough! Cough! "
Thick smoke quickly spread out from the camp on the plains.
A violent gust of wind blew, and black smoke filled the entire camp. Most of the soldiers cried because of the smoke, especially those who were close to the fire. All of them had their eyes half-closed, and their field of vision was reduced to a very small area.
Besides …
The rations continued burning.
The heat was high, and the smoke continued growing stronger.
"Cough … Cough! Get water … "
"No … There's no more water! Cough! General, all the water in the camp has been poured into the rations … Cough! It's not enough to suppress the fire … "
"Damn it!"
"General … Cough, have our brothers retreat. If this continues, we'll definitely die from the smoke." The powerful fire practically could not be extinguished in the sky. Thick smoke came tumbling down, and no one could see anything within a circular area of 328 feet.
Many people were so suffocated by the smoke that they practically lost their fighting strength.
"Nonsense!"
Empress Yin naturally did not care about these people's lives. When she heard that someone wanted to retreat, without another word, she twisted the 100-man commander's head off.
"This is what will happen to those who dare to leave their posts."
Usually, being ruthless might work, but smoke tumbled about, and the area was very noisy.
Not many people saw it, and as the smoke swiftly filled the area, many people ran out of the camp. The horses were also useless. They were so terrified by the fire that they ran into people everywhere. Their eyes were filled with smoke, and they could not see where they were going. It was as if they were possessed, and the smoke caused the entire camp to explode.
The Demon General saw that the situation was off.
"Retreat!"
A large group of Mongolian soldiers looked as if they had been pardoned. All of them rushed to run. Their faces were covered in black paint, and they looked like laborers who had crawled out of a cave.
In the end, even Empress Yin, Demon General, and the Priest could not continue staying near the fire because they could not breathe. They retreated.
Once they retreated, there was no way they could locate Happy.
"Hmph!"
Happy had been holding back for a long time, and he was waiting for this moment.
With a tap against the ground, he quickly jumped out of the sea of fire and smoke and ran in the opposite direction. He blended into a group of Mongolian cavaliers who covered their faces and retreated. While he coughed, he ran out.
Once he left the crowd, without another word, Happy searched for a secluded spot to summon his Hoof Shadow, activated the skill to fuse with his horse, and charged forward madly.
Even if the Mongolian cavaliers around him recognized that the person who was as black as ink was Happy, they did not have the strength to chase after him.
"He's … Cough … over here …"
"After him!"
"Hurry up and chase after him!"
While they shouted, more Mongolian soldiers came to a realization.
Unfortunately, most of their horses died inside because of the horse stumps. Some of them did not listen to their orders, and when they fired an arrow shower, dozens of them were killed instead. In the end, a large group of people could only watch Happy charge forward and disappear into the horizon.
