Shenjing capital.
Almost at the same time, dozens of houses in dozens of places were set ablaze. These houses were stacked with large amounts of firewood for the winter.
All the firewood was doused with oil and set ablaze. The flames soared into the sky along with billowing smoke.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
Not long after these places were set ablaze, a few barren hills outside Shenjing capital were accompanied by terrifying explosions. The power of the explosions was not small but compared to the power, the sound was more terrifying. The few explosions had alarmed the entire Shenjing capital.
Furthermore, the sound of the explosions could be heard from afar.
"Not good, fire the smoke, the capital is under attack!"
Seventy to eighty kilometers away, a military camp was quickly lit up with smoke. The billowing smoke contained oil and fire that could be seen from dozens of kilometers away in the dark night.
"Quick, quick, the capital is under attack!"
"Light the smoke!"
There were cities and other military camps nearby. Seeing the rising smoke, they reacted quickly and did the same.
One, two, three … In just two to three minutes, there were ten to twenty such smoke rising.
There was a city dozens of kilometers away from Qin Yang and the rest. A similar smoke rose.
"Sixth Wangye, look!"
Outside the valley, a strong man suddenly shouted.
The smoke rising from dozens of kilometers away could be seen clearly by ordinary people, let alone Yuan Lake experts like Tang Anguo and the rest.
"Not good!"
Tang Anguo's expression changed drastically.
As the country's general, Tang Anguo knew what this meant. Such smoke rising meant that something big must have happened in the capital.
"Luring the tiger away from the mountain!"
"Damn it, Qin Yang might be working with other forces! He's luring a large number of our experts here and attacking Shenjing capital at the same time! "
"No wonder Qin Yang said forty-one at the beginning. Not bad!"
In the valley, Qin Yang looked at the sky as well. They could see the smoke rising from afar.
"Sixth Wangye, if it were me, I wouldn't go back. I'd charge into the valley and kill first! The pain of losing a son is irreconcilable! "Qin Yang chuckled.
Tang Anguo said sternly, "Qin Yang, you're from the Empire of Tiantang. How dare you join forces with other forces? You can't escape death!"
"He he, I didn't join forces. Maybe it's just a coincidence," Qin Yang said with a smile.
Ning Xuan and Zhuang Si smiled. It was Qin Yang who had asked them to do this. They bought some firewood storage, poured some oil on it, and placed a timed burning talisman that Qin Yang had made. It was very easy.
It was not difficult to bury a few bombs in the barren mountains. Qin Yang could do it himself. Bombs that were loud and powerful did not require good materials.
"Your Highness, we can continue to kill Qin Yang and the others. As soon as the smoke signal rises, we must immediately return to help Jing Shi," Elder Yun said in a low voice.
"Yes, Sixth Wangye, we can't fall into Qin Yang's trap!"
"Sixth King, killing Qin Yang is a small matter, but the safety of the capital is far more important!"
The rest of the Yuan Lake Realm experts were all anxious.
Those who came here basically had properties in the Empire of Tiantang and had family members.
At the Grandmaster Banquet, these Yuan Lake Realm experts had family and friends accompanying them to Shengjing City. Now that Shengjing City was under attack, it would be strange if they were not worried!
Tang Anguo looked at Qin Yang and the others, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Tang Anguo really wanted to give the order to charge in and kill Qin Yang and the others!
However, Tang Anguo dared not act recklessly after losing close to twenty Yuan Lake Realm experts the first time and the second time.
Recklessly entering the valley would most likely result in a great loss!
"Retreat, return to Shengjing City as quickly as possible!"
Tang Anguo gritted his teeth. They could rush back two hundred kilometers in a little more than an hour if they gave it their all!
Shengjing City's forces were still relatively strong, it should not collapse within an hour.
"Yes!"
Forty Yuan Lake Realm experts left quickly. Most of them were relieved that they did not have to rush into the valley. They would rather rush back to Shengjing City to fight!
"Phew!"
Qin Yang was secretly relieved. He thought that this backup plan would not be used at all, it was a waste of effort. He did not expect it to be used!
"Yang 'er, they won't continue to find us after they leave, right?" Xie Yan asked.
Qin Yang shook his head. "Not likely. I just realized that they did not bring any powerful spiritual beasts with them! It's very likely that they used some kind of treasure to find us, something that can be stored in a spatial ring! Even if such a thing can be used multiple times, it would be difficult to use it again in a short period of time. The probability of them finding us again is not high! "
"Get ready, we're leaving!"
"It won't be long before they receive the message that the alarm was wrong!"
Tang Anguo and the others were already a few kilometers away. They could not possibly see this side. Qin Yang's Dark Demonic Dragon and Xiao Junwan's Icy Phoenix appeared. With their current abilities, their Martial Spirits could easily carry ten people away.
"Phew!"
Snow flew everywhere. Soon, Qin Yang and the others' Martial Spirits carried them and disappeared into the sky.
Three minutes passed.
Tang Anguo and the others suddenly stopped.
In the distance, two similar smoke signals rose in succession.
"Was the warning just now wrong?"
Tang Anguo's expression changed drastically. After one smoke signal, another one appeared. It was an urgent signal! It meant that the situation was dire. Reinforcements had to be fast!
After the first smoke, there were two consecutive smoke signals. It was the cancellation of the previous warning signal!
"Quick, let's return to the valley!"
Tang Anguo and the others rushed to the side of the valley. There was no sign of Qin Yang and the others.
"Elder Yun!"
Tang Anguo looked at the white-robed old man who took out the corpse of the Six-Winged Soulchasing Insect.
The white-robed old man smiled bitterly. "When we were delayed in the valley, the Six-Winged Soulchasing Insect's energy was depleted! I don't have a second treasure like this on me! "
"Ah!"
Tang Anguo roared into the sky. He struck out with his palm and the violent force smashed a huge rock not far away into pieces!
"Does anyone have the means to catch up with Qin Yang and the others?" Tang Anguo asked with red eyes.
The experts shook their heads.
A treasure like the Six-Winged Soulchasing Insect was extremely rare!
It was rare for the imperial family to take it out. They were only ordinary Yuan Lake Realm experts. How could they have such a treasure?
Even if they had it, most of them would not be willing to take it out. They were too lazy to take it out!
Out of these forty Yuan Lake Realm experts, only a small portion of them wanted to kill Qin Yang. As for the rest, it was better for them not to fight with Qin Yang!
If a young Grandmaster like Qin Yang could not be killed after taking out a treasure, the consequences would be dire!
"Your Highness, let's return to the capital immediately. There might be a situation over there!"
"The cancellation of the smoke signal could also be caused by the enemy!"
Elder Yun said in a deep voice. In the current situation, it was meaningless to chase after Qin Yang and the others. In the dark night, it was too difficult to chase after Qin Yang and the others who left through the sky.
"Let's go!"
Tang Anguo shouted angrily.
Forty-one Yuan Lake Realm experts left the valley again.
In the sky, Qin Yang and the others left quickly. After some time, Qin Yang did not sense any killing intent. He was relieved.
"It seems that we are safe!"
Qin Yang smiled. "But we should not rest now. We should hurry and leave Shengjing City!"
"Okay!"
Xie Yan and the others nodded.
After more than an hour, Qin Yang and the others were more than four hundred kilometers away from Shengjing City. Tang Anguo and the others also rushed back.
It was dawn.
"Sixth Brother, how was it?"
Tang Chengde said in a deep voice. He did not stay in the palace but waited at the north gate. Seeing Tang Anguo and the others coming, Tang Chengde quickly called them to the city tower.
"Your Highness, Qin Yang and the others ran away."
Tang Anguo gritted his teeth. When they arrived at Shengjing City, they saw the barren hills outside the city were blown up. Hearing some people's discussions, Tang Anguo knew that they were tricked.
Tang Chengde's eyes were filled with disappointment. He had a bad feeling when Tang Anguo and the others did not bring Qin Yang and the others back. Sure enough, Tang Anguo and the others failed!
"Thank you for your hard work!"
"I will invite everyone to a banquet at noon. Thank you!"
Tang Chengde said in a deep voice. Although they failed, so many Yuan Lake Realm experts worked hard for a few hours. He still had to express his gratitude.
"Your Highness is too polite!"
The experts quickly said.
"Your Highness, we did not help much. There is no need for a banquet!"
"Yes, Your Highness. Since there is nothing else in Shengjing City, we will leave first!"
The experts spoke one after another. Not long after, most of the Yuan Lake Realm experts left. Only the experts belonging to the imperial family remained.
"Return to the palace and report."
Tang Chengde said coldly.
