Chapter 2785 The Crisis in Tianqing Town Temporarily Retreats
"Hmph! You are not from the Wei family at all. How could you have set up a teleportation array here in advance? Could it be that the black-faced guy's promise to save the Wei family's life was actually done by you?" The woman's voice reacted and shouted in a deep voice.
Neither side was willing to back down.
Goodness, the five of them were a bit timid when facing Xu Huang, but when facing two more imposing and fierce generals, their attitude became much tougher.
"Dark-faced guy? What do you mean?!" the burly man asked softly without speaking.
"Tsk tsk... You're too late. The Wei family has been captured by the White Wave Army, and they've emptied the entire prefectural governor's mansion." The woman's quirky voice rang out.
"What? Wei Zhongdao has also been kidnapped?" The two burly men exclaimed in unison in shock.
When did they leave? In which direction did they go?
"Look, southeast," the woman said, pointing in a direction.
"Wen Chou, let's go!" a burly man shouted.
The two of them then rushed towards the southeast.
Wen Chou… and the other one is none other than Yan Liang!!
They're back from the grasslands!
The small tower that Yan Liang is holding, isn't that a resurrection artifact?!
Yuan Shao has succeeded!
“Sister… how could you actually point out the direction of Bai Bojun’s retreat? I don’t think these two are good people, or people who want to save the Wei family.” Another person in black finally spoke, and her voice was still that of a woman!
"Yes... I feel that Xu Huang is actually righteous and doesn't seem to be burdened by any evil karma."
"Are you all stupid? The White Wave Army has so many men; their movements will definitely be known to the people in the city. We can't hide it from them. If we really lied, those two might attack us... That would cost us several items!"
"But why were you so fierce and forceful just now? It wasn't like you at all..."
"Hehe... I was just pretending. Those two guys didn't seem like good people, so I had to be tough, otherwise they'd think we were easy to bully and might just swat us with a knife..."
"Wow... little sister is so good at this..."
"Let's go, let's go... This trip out has been truly dangerous. It's really as dangerous as Master said!"
"Yes...yes...go home quickly, go home."
The voices of five men in black echoed through the empty prefectural governor's mansion. And all five men in black were women!
After everyone had left, in the empty prefectural governor's mansion, in a dark corner, Xu Huang's figure slowly emerged.
"Just as my lord predicted, Yuan Shao not only plots to revive the divine artifact, but also plans to seize the destiny of the lords bestowed upon Wei Zhongdao," Xu Huang muttered to himself.
After saying that, he transformed into a streak of light and disappeared, but he went in the northwest direction...
……
Following the directions provided by the man in black, two burly warriors, covered in wounds but without stopping to heal, sped along like lightning.
Along the way, they saw traces of the army's retreat, but when it entered the mountainous region, it disappeared...
After a thorough examination, no trace of it could be found, which was very strange...
"Damn it... another important task entrusted by the lord can't be completed." Wen Chou stamped his foot and said helplessly.
"Never mind, just to be on the safe side, let's take the things back first."
"As for the dragon's luck on Wei Zhongdao, we'll deal with that later," Yan Liang said in a deep voice, gazing at the utterly silent forest.
"Let's go." The two quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests.
……
On the border of Youzhou, in a subordinate territory established by Lin Mu, lies Tianqing Town.
On the majestic city wall, twenty feet high, Huang Xu was frowning as he gazed at the snow-covered horizon in the distance.
According to reports from scouts, the number of alien races gathering in the distance has actually increased during this period.
Despite the heavy snowfall, the alien race did not retreat; instead, they gathered even more troops, their intentions quite clear.
"Perhaps they're not planning to negotiate a deal, but rather continue their plundering," Huang Xu murmured to himself, exhaling a breath of warm air that instantly formed a faint mist. "Zixing, our city wall looks tall and strong, but it's not connected to the earth's veins, nor does it have any inscribed magic arrays. It's just an ordinary stone wall, which can't possibly withstand the alien cavalry, even in such harsh conditions," Cui Wu whispered.
Huang Xu nodded upon hearing this. Ordinary stone city walls, no matter how thick or high, would have difficulty withstanding the impact of high-level iron cavalry.
Even a low-ranking warrior can blast a large hole in it, let alone a high-ranking general or a divine general.
"If they advance another fifty miles, then summon our lord!" Huang Xu decided.
Upon hearing this, Cui Wu nodded emphatically; it was time to call for backup.
"Screech!~~~~" Just then, a cry of an eagle suddenly rang out from the sky where goose feather snow was falling heavily.
The next moment, hundreds of enormous black shadows tore through the snow in the sky and came hurtling in.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!!" Huang Xu shouted.
The next moment, a rain of arrows rose into the sky, shooting towards the dark figures.
However, the dark figures suddenly rose into the air and increased the distance, and the arrows could not keep up at all, so they quickly fell back down.
Then, an arrow carrying terrifying power descended from the sky.
Huang Xu, Cui Wu, and others carried their weapons to deflect the arrows, but some always slipped through the net and struck some crossbow carts on the city wall, causing a huge explosion.
"Zichen, the situation may be more critical than we think... Let's prepare to contact the lord," Huang Xu said solemnly.
This situation clearly indicates that the alien race is about to attack.
“Alright, I’ll go contact the lord.” Cui Wu nodded, then ran to the nearby pavilion.
A moment later, Cui Wu came out of the pavilion with a look of surprise on his face, and then reported to Huang Xu: "The lord said that we should wait, and also that we should prepare to build a market town as a place for trading."
"What do you mean? Don't the alien races attack?" Huang Xu asked in astonishment.
"Then... wait a bit." Huang Xu said with a sigh of relief.
Then they continued to fight off the Sky Eagle Knights' attacks with their soldiers.
He trusted his lord Lin Mu implicitly; whatever his lord said was law, without question.
The eagle riders' attack lasted for more than half an hour, and they probably ran out of arrows, so they retreated.
This attack caused significant losses to Tianqing Town, and the town was forced to take the hits passively, unable to retaliate.
However, on the second day, the alien army, which was a hundred miles away, began a large-scale retreat.
Yesterday's Eagle Rider attack... it feels like a joke...
What Huang Xu didn't know was that at this moment, the tribal leaders of the alien alliance all had ashen faces.
Just now, they received breaking news: the resurrection artifact they had fought so hard to retrieve was stolen yesterday!
In other words, their most important reliance recently—resurrection—is gone!
This almost caused the faith of those tribal leaders to collapse.
The resurrection artifact, placed in the most important and central position, was still managed to be snatched back by the Han Dynasty. It's truly laughable.
The temple was robbed once before, why haven't they learned their lesson...? Although this time it wasn't in the same temple or the same place, it was still a heavily guarded area. How did the people of the Great Han Dynasty manage to succeed?!
Damn it... I hadn't even had a chance to properly enjoy the thrill of being resurrected before it was all gone... I'm speechless.
Without the means to revive them, they could not act as planned, since they had brought their true wealth with them this time.
When they usually raided the Han Dynasty in the south, they were reluctant to bring their real wealth with them, only taking some ordinary cavalry.
They were dejected and had barely left when they were found by messengers sent by Huang Xu.
After their conversation, the envoy returned to Tianqing Town, satisfied...
