I asked you to practice physical skills, not to open the Eight Gates!

Chapter 97, Sand City

The yellow sand and hot wind made people's cheeks hurt.

Li Yang and his group of more than a hundred people advanced quickly in the yellow sand. At the same time, there were several pioneers in front who were running the fastest and observing the situation at any time.

Finally, the outline of a city appeared on the horizon not far ahead.

"The city ahead is the capital of the Kingdom of Sand. We should wait here until dark before going over, otherwise we will be discovered." Wu Xin said.

There are so many of them and the target is so big that just walking straight over there would be tantamount to committing suicide.

They will have a chance only when night falls.

"Everyone stay where they are and don't move around." Wu Xin said in a low voice.

Everyone else quickly hid on the spot, dug out sand pits in the yellow sand, lay down in them, and then buried themselves with sand.

This can effectively avoid being seen by the enemy.

The group hid like this, quietly waiting for the opportunity to come.

Just when everyone thought they could wait until nightfall smoothly, a burst of scattered footsteps suddenly came from behind.

I saw a group of people from the Sand Country with bandages all over their bodies walking towards this side. There were so many of them, about 20 to 30 people!
Wu Xin and others were suddenly worried.

Because she found that those people were walking towards them!

Has it been discovered?
But if they were discovered, they should have taken action directly or moved forward cautiously instead of walking without any vigilance like they were doing now.

"Chief, do you want to take action?"

Someone asked Wu Xin in a low voice.

"Don't act rashly, and stay hidden."

Wu Xin lowered his voice and asked the others to remain hidden.

There are more than a hundred of them, so it is no problem for them to deal with these twenty or thirty people from the Sand Country.

But this place is very close to the capital of the Kingdom of Sand. If a fight breaks out, their whereabouts will definitely be exposed and their plan will completely fail.

So, Wu Xin chose to take a gamble, betting that these people just happened to pass by and did not discover them.

But at the same time, they were also prepared to take action. Once discovered, they would try to kill these people as soon as possible!
……

"Old Eight, what do you think the boss wants us to do by finding so many crystal cores?" muttered a bald man who was the leader of the team.

The man called Lao Ba, who had his hair parted in the middle, said, "The boss used it, so it must have its uses."

"But I guess he prepared it for the girl he just caught a few days ago."

"Yeah, I guess the boss will take action tonight."

"As long as the boss succeeds, let alone this small black desert, even if we expand outward, countries like Xifeng Kingdom, Xuanwu Kingdom, and Shenxia Kingdom will sooner or later surrender to our Sand Kingdom!" said the bald man.

The group passed by Li Yang and others without noticing them.

No near misses.

Only after they had gone far away did Li Yang dig up some sand to get some fresh air, looking at the backs of those people as they walked away.

He heard everything that was said just now.

Gu Qingqing should be in the capital ahead, and the boss of the Sand Country is going to take action against Gu Qingqing tonight - as for what the specific matter is, it is definitely not a good thing.

"They plan to take action tonight." Wu Xin whispered.

Li Yang looked up at the sun not far away, which had begun to sink into the horizon.

"Get ready for action."

……

The night in the desert comes quickly. As soon as the sun disappears, darkness begins to fall.

The capital of the Kingdom of Sand.

Bonfires were lit on the city walls and the city was brightly lit.

The whole city is still bright in the darkness.

"Be alert tonight and don't let your guard down. If there is any loss, you will not be able to take the responsibility!"

"Yes!"

On the city wall, the bald man was giving serious instructions to the guards on the wall.

Tonight is a critical moment and no mistakes can be made.

Outside the city, in the darkness that they could not see, hundreds of figures were approaching quickly, and finally stopped less than a hundred meters outside the city. This was the last safety cordon, and if they went any further, they would be illuminated by the fire and their whereabouts would be exposed.

"Li Yang, what should we do next? Should we just take action?" Wu Xin asked in a low voice.

Li Yang looked up at the city wall in front of him. It was heavily guarded, and it would be a bit difficult to sneak in quietly.

"There are too many of us, and it's not convenient to move."

"I'll sneak in to find someone first. You wait here. If you hear the sound of fighting inside, you can take action." Li Yang said.

Wu Xin and others had no way to sneak in, but it was not difficult for Li Yang to do it alone.

"Can you do it alone?" Wu Xin was a little worried.

This is the capital of the Kingdom of Sand. It is heavily guarded and contains many powerful people.

If you are not careful, you will fall into a trap!

"Don't worry, I'm here to look for someone, not to fight."

"Take care of yourselves. If the situation is critical or you are in danger, you can just run away. You don't need to wait for me."

After saying that, Li Yang went around from the other side.

……

On the city wall, several guards were patrolling back and forth, watching the movements around them vigilantly.

call out!
Suddenly, a tiny black shadow flashed through the air, and the two guards looked over immediately.

"What was that just now?"

"I didn't see it clearly, it seemed like something flew past."

"Could it be a bat?"

"It's possible, but it won't be a human."

"Forget it, let's continue patrolling."

The two guards didn't pay much attention.

Little did they know, it was a Flying Thunder God Kunai that successfully landed inside the city.

call out!
Li Yang's figure appeared at the landing point of the Flying Thunder God Kunai at the same time, and then he quickly hid in the alley on the side without being discovered.

"Infiltration successful."

Looking up at the street ahead, he disappeared into the darkness and observed the soldiers patrolling the street.

Judging from the conversation among those people in the afternoon, the people from the Sand Country are going to take action against Gu Qingqing tonight, and they may want to start studying her cursed body.

Therefore, Li Yang must find Gu Qingqing as soon as possible.

"It's too slow to find it directly, let's grab someone and ask him."

Li Yang quickly spotted a patrolling guard, then quickly stepped forward and dragged him in.

"who?!"

The guard reacted and was about to shout loudly, but he saw a pair of scarlet and strange Sharingan.

Genjutsu·Sharingan!
Li Yang directly used illusion to capture all the guard's memories.

Soon, he found out the location of the general of the Sand Kingdom.

"In the city center?"

After leaving the guards to hide in the bushes on the side, Li Yang quickly rushed towards the city center.

The Sand City was very quiet tonight. Except for the patrolling guards, everyone else on the street was resting.

This actually makes it easier for Li Yang to move, as he can clearly avoid all the guards.

Soon, he arrived at the center of the city.

A huge palace stands in the center, like a sleeping tiger, exuding a rich breath.

"Is this right here?"

Li Yang didn't hesitate and dived over quickly.
