That night, a quarter to four in the morning!
A giant black bird that was more than fifty feet in size flew across the sky above King Langya's mansion, blending into the darkness.
Liu Fei sat on the giant bird and caressed its feathers. "Uncle Pelican, we're counting on you this time!"
"Don't worry, Princess. I'm very fast. I'll only need half a day to reach the capital!" The giant bird flapped its wings and sped away.
Xue Ying was surprised. "An emperor realm bird?"
"Uncle Pelican is my father's good friend! “
Liu Fei introduced, "When my father was young, he fell off a cliff while practicing martial arts. It was Uncle Pelican who saved him."
"Just like my Xiao Jin. Xiao Jin wanted to eat me and daddy back then …" The little girl in Ye Chen's embrace reached out and stroked the giant bird's wings.
Ye Chen patted her head with a smile. He found out that Xiao Hei was a beast during this trip to the Ancient Desolate Realm.
Meanwhile, the black clothed woman silently turned around, and she gazed silently at the Langya Estate that was moving further and further away from them. After that, she silently knelt down!
A stream of tears slowly flowed down her cheeks!
Ye Chen secretly shook his head!
Obviously, even she could faintly guess what it meant for King Langya to stay behind!
Although Ye Chen could tell with a glance!
However, he did not stop them!
Everyone had their own beliefs and their own choices. The only thing he could do was to fulfill his promise.
Time slowly passed, and the atmosphere became silent. None of them were in a good mood. Some were worried about the future like the woman in black, and some were reluctant to leave home like Liu Fei.
Ye Chen glanced at his daughter who was gradually falling asleep in his arms and lifted his head to look at the night sky. His emotions gradually drifted into the distance!
He did not know where Su Yuhan and his parents were!
Was it in the Northern Region?
Or in the Eastern Wilderness, the Southern Region, the Western Desert, or the Central Plains?
He knew that it was useless for him to be anxious. The only thing he could do was to start searching in the Northern Region. He would find it one day!
After they had been flying for an hour.
Langya County, Langya Palace!
The entire Prince's Mansion was in a state of tranquility. Not a single light could be seen, and not a single person could be seen.
King Langya Liu Qingzhou stood in the courtyard with no one beside him. He murmured, "Fei 'er, this farewell between us father and daughter might be our last!"
"In this life, the only people I owe are your mother and you. Unfortunately, your father was greatly favored by the late Emperor, so I can only repay you with my death!"
"Go, go far away …"
He looked up at the western horizon, and his expression seemed to be filled with sorrow and reluctance, but it was mostly filled with determination.
"Hu hu …"
Just at this moment, a few gusts of wind faintly blew over from the courtyard, causing many fallen leaves to be lifted up.
"Since you're here, come out!"
King Langya didn't even raise his head, his expression completely unchanged.
As soon as he finished speaking, an old voice resounded in the courtyard, "As expected of King Langya, you actually guessed that we would come!"
The next moment!
Five figures landed on the ground at the same time. One of them was holding a sword, one was dressed like an elegant scholar, and one was a sloppy old man carrying a wine pot.
However, even with the appearance of these five people, the falling leaves in the air did not change their trajectory at all.
"Five Wu Zongs!"
King Langya laughed heartily, "How can I, Liu Qingzhou, make five Wu Zongs descend? It seems that King Chu, King Dai, and the others can't wait any longer!"
A gloomy man stepped forward and squinted at the former, "Your injury has actually healed?"
"It seems that the information is true, there must be an outsider involved. Otherwise, with your ability, how could you delay until now to cure the poison!" Another middle-aged scholar with a folding fan said.
"Liu Qingzhou, hand over the person behind you, and we may spare your life, and your Langya Palace will be spared!"
"Hahaha!"
Facing such an existence, King Langya laughed loudly, "You five dogs, what right do you have to negotiate with me? When the late Emperor was still alive, you were like stray dogs, living in fear all day long. Now that the late Emperor is gone, you all jump out! "
"You still dare to speak so shamelessly even when you're about to die!"
One of them sneered, "Why bother talking nonsense with him, capture him, and use the Soul Searching Technique on him, then we'll know what we want!"
The few of them were about to rush over.
"Wait, something's not right!"
The man with the folding fan frowned, "Why is there no one else in such a huge palace?"
"Oh no, there's the smell of gunpowder!"
"Damn it, there's gunpowder buried here!"
In practically an instant, the expressions of the five of them changed in unison. Their figures flashed, and they intended to tear through the sky without saying a word.
King Langya's sneering face suddenly had a hint of ruthlessness, "Since you're here, you should at least leave something behind, right?"
The next moment!
A fireball landed at his feet!
"Rumble, rumble, rumble …"
The entire Langya Palace was instantly engulfed in a deafening explosion, as if the mountains were collapsing and the earth was cracking. The commotion was so loud that even from ten miles away, one could still see the huge fireball soaring into the sky.
When the fire dissipated, five figures landed about a mile away from the Langya King's Mansion.
An old man's entire arm was blown off, and his hair was disheveled, "This bastard buried gunpowder in advance, damn it, I'm going to exterminate his entire family!"
"Dammit! With his death, wouldn't there be no news of the Empress Dowager's whereabouts …" Right at this moment, the expression of one of them changed greatly.
As his voice fell, the rest of the people were completely enraged, "What did you say? The Empress Dowager also came to Langya County?! "
…
"Pass down my order. Gather all the experts above the Martial Emperor Realm and search all the way north. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find him! “
"Order the capital's garrison and city defense forces to set up a checkpoint fifty li away from the capital. Mobilize a hundred thousand soldiers and scatter them a hundred li away. Don't let even a mosquito enter! “
"Order the Swift Lightning Sword Sect, the Tianluo Sect, the Soul Devourer Guild, and the True Martial Sect to mobilize all their elites. If any of them slack off, their sects will be destroyed!"
In almost an hour, orders were issued from the five provinces of the major dynasties.
At the same time, within the Qing Kingdom, an imperial edict was sent out. "I order the military advisor to take 300,000 soldiers to the border of the Qing Kingdom. They can only stand against each other, not fight!"
"Whether or not our great sect can perish without a fight will be decided tonight!"
…
On the southern border of the major dynasties, Huxiong Pass.
Beyond the massive city wall, as far as the eye could see, there were endless torches, and a murderous aura stretched dozens of li into the sky.
The soldiers guarding the pass waited solemnly. Their faces were filled with nervousness because what they saw was people, an endless number of people!
The enemy country, the Qing Kingdom, had mobilized 300,000 soldiers to guard the pass in the middle of the night. With such a lineup, were they going to fight a war?
And it was in this kind of atmosphere that …
Among the enemy country's army outside the city, a beam of sword light suddenly rose into the sky and landed outside Huxiong Pass.
