After the battle in the university field, the escaped demon leaders such as Zhao Xingshu were fully aware of the strength of Bai Xiaowen and his group, and the two groups of people they had repelled during their previous inspections of the outside world (yes, the two A-level teams of Xinpu and Longze)
team) are completely different.
So we must pursue them! If we don’t pursue them, they will join forces with Yu Wenhua and his brothers.
Bai Xiaowen simply tidied up the battlefield, threw the newly captured Soul Stone of Resentment to Yang Guang, then rode on the Fury Claw and followed Li Shuyi's footsteps to catch up.
The rest of the White Phoenix team also summoned elite wargs and accelerated the pursuit. The five of them rode three wolves, including Han Xu alone, so there was no big problem.
Speaking of the Soul Stone of Resentment, among the demon leaders who were killed, Sima Dekan was, needless to say, one of the ten thieves named by Queen Xiao; Yuan Min, the former internal historian, and Meng Jing, the former Ying Yanglang general
, are all among the ten thieves.
After absorbing three resentment soul stones, the true spirit of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty further increased its solidification, and it no longer looked much different from a normal ghost.
But this was not enough. Only five of the ten thieves were killed. Yu Wenji, whom Yang Guang hated the most, was still hiding in the Wanxiang Palace.
Next, the White Phoenix team relied on the warg's speed advantage to continuously hunt down the escaping Zhao Xingshu and the Li brothers.
Compared with the hearty legion battle, the current pursuit battle is a bit unpleasant. The enemy will not fight you, but will try every means to escape back to the Wanxiang Palace in the north center of the city.
As the pursuing party, we must not only find ways to catch up with the enemy and retain the enemy, but also cut off the opponent's only path in advance.
Fortunately, Bai Xiaowen had the aerial view of Jiangdu City provided by Qiao Rui. With his precise computer-like deduction, he always intercepted from shortcuts and got twice the result with half the effort.
Zhao Xingshu and other demon leaders felt like they were beeping.
Why, why are you, an outsider, more familiar with the geographical information of the streets and alleys of Jiangdu City than us garrison troops?
We have been stationed in Jiangdu City for more than two years.
No matter how unwilling they were to escape the demons, the White Phoenix team still blocked them one by one and successfully killed them.
This process undoubtedly took a lot of time. During this period, the Vientiane Palace also sent some detective teams to inquire about the situation. When they encountered the White Phoenix team, they did not even have a chance to escape.
There are some familiar faces of Emperor Sui Yang in these horse exploration teams, such as a school captain named "Linghu Xingda". Although he is not one of the ten thieves, after seeing the true spirit of Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty, he still
He was so angry that he slapped the coffin board and asked Bai Xiaowen to avenge him——
It turns out that Linghu Xingda was the executioner who personally hanged Emperor Yang of Sui Dynasty.
Bai Xiaowen is still a little strange. You didn't include the executioner who killed you with his own hands among the ten thieves?
Empress Xiao sighed, she still knew the emperor very well. Yang Guang was so high up, how could he pay attention to these humble captains? He just regarded them as the minions of Yu Wenhuaji, Sima Dekan and others.
When Linghu Xingda committed the murder, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty probably did not know the name of the captain.
In other words, Emperor Sui Yang had to be at least at the level of Xu Hongren, the head of the palace, to hold a grudge.
Speaking of Xu Hongren, he also led a team of scouts out to investigate. After bumping into Bai Xiaowen, they also couldn't escape. The chief of the palace who personally dragged Emperor Sui Yang out was finally executed.
"What was your Majesty's strength like when he was alive?" Bai Xiaowen thought about it for a while, but still wasn't sure about Yang Guang's level, so he asked cautiously.
If Yang Guang was a leader, would he be dragged out from under the bed by an elite leader? Would he be hanged to death on the spot by another elite captain? This would be too embarrassing.
Queen Xiao shook her head and said: "Your Majesty is the lord of the world. You only need to control people. You don't have to fight personally. It doesn't matter how powerful you are."
Well, Empress Xiao avoided talking about it, so Bai Xiaowen had some idea in his mind. Emperor Sui Yang was just a scumbag during his lifetime. Of course, Bai Xiaowen did not believe everything Empress Xiao said, and he was not that naive yet.
…
Plop.
The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground was heard, and the demon leader transformed by Li Xiaoben died under Li Shuyi's sword.
A gray soul stone of resentment condensed out.
"It's finally done. Now we have killed seven of the ten thieves, and there are only three leaders left in the Wanxiang Palace." Li Shuyi took a breath.
Although they were two brothers, Yang Guang only remembered Li Xiaoben. His younger brother Li Xiaozhi was not among the ten thieves.
Bai Xiaowen handed the Resentful Soul Stone to the Ghost Palace Maid, who respectfully presented it to Yang Guang, but Yang Guang choked it off.
"Fellow Taoist priests, please do not take it lightly. The ten thieves listed by His Majesty are only the ten people he hates the most. There are many other powerful rebels and thieves who have not entered the list of the ten thieves, such as Zhao Xingshu who was just eliminated.
, and Zhang Kai before." Queen Xiao reminded.
Bai Xiaowen nodded slightly: "In addition to the remaining three thieves, what other powerful demons are there in the Wanxiang Palace now? Does the Queen know?"
Empress Xiao thought for a while, shook her head and said: "I have lived in the palace for a long time and am not familiar with the officials in the palace. However, the two Fu Xilang and Niu Fangyu who guarded the dragon-patterned golden box for Your Majesty also participated in the rebellion that day. They were killed.
The aura influence of the dragon-patterned gold box may be improved even more than that of normal people after transforming into a demon."
Bai Xiaowen understood. He silently checked his attribute panel again.
On the panel, the Yin Qi influence brought by the Dragon Pattern Golden Box has reached 20%! In other words, it has been eight hours since they entered Jiangdu City.
There was still plenty of time, so Bai Xiaowen was not in a hurry to enter the Wanxiang Palace.
The battle has just ended, so it’s better to take a break first, recover some physical strength, and wait for the cooldown time of the ultimate move.
In the previous battle, not only did Delifa's corpse resuscitation and Bai Xiaowen's Command Roar activate, but even Li Shuyi had to activate the active activation effect of Ghosts and Gods Wushuang when faced with the siege of the scratching hook hand next to Meng Jing.
Others, such as Cecilia's "Hunting Hour" and Qiao Rui's Falcon Spirit, were all used up.
With my current tired body, it is still very dangerous to face more than three demon leaders in the Wanxiang Palace.
Although Bai Xiaowen has many strategic-level props, he saves as much as he can. Even golden props like Eden's horn that can automatically recharge can be used as often as possible. After all, Eden's horn has a month-long lifespan.
How long does it take to charge, what if it needs to be used later?
The White Phoenix team took Queen Xiao and others and hid in a dilapidated wine shop in Jiangdu City. With the double mental shielding of Qiao Rui and Bai Xiaowen, the demons in Jiangdu City could not find them. Moreover, the demons were panic-stricken at this time, which made it even more difficult.
It is no longer possible to organize a strict patrol network.
