Chapter 467 Running wildly all the way
Seeing this, Sikong Jin took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh, "Luckily you were quick-witted, otherwise we would have had to fight another fierce battle. We've already fought two battles tonight, and I'm exhausted. I don't have the strength to fight anymore. We need to find a place to rest and recover our strength before making any plans. However, for now, it's probably best to avoid the road ahead. I suggest we avoid the main road and take the mountain path instead. That might be the best way to avoid them."
Sikong Jin had no choice but to abandon her original plan to directly attack the capital. The enemy was coming with great force, and she didn't want to be tormented to death by these people before she even returned to the capital. Moreover, secretly sneaking back to the capital seemed to be the best way!
Then, she could work with Changfeng and other experts from Fengyunlou to sneak into the palace undetected, find the place where Su Yue and Xing Fuhua were imprisoned, as well as Ji Wuge and the others, and then create several riots in the imperial city to disrupt the entire imperial city. At the same time, the border army would launch a fierce attack. She didn't believe that Xing Qiyu could be that tough!
Of course, instigating riots is actually what Sikong Jin is best at!
Di Beizun pondered for a moment before nodding. Seeing that there was still a hint of helplessness and unease in her voice, he reassured her, "Don't worry, now that we've entered Dayong, there's a branch of Fengyun Tower in Taizhou City ahead. We'll be safe soon. We should be able to get to Taizhou City after we get past this small town. I'll have them come to meet us."
Listening, Sikong Jin frowned, thought for a moment, then took a breath and nodded, "Yes, it's naturally better to have someone to help. The closer we get to the capital, the more dangerous it becomes. Xing Qiyu has too many spies who are watching us in the dark at any time. We must find a way to slip away unnoticed and sneak back to the capital. That way, it will be easier to carry out our mission!"
Now Sikong Jin could no longer afford to be careless. She had originally planned to go back this way, but if all else failed, she was considering forcing her way back.
As she spoke, Sikong Jin subconsciously touched her chin, glanced at the small town, and continued in a low voice through a secret message, "Should we just take a detour now? There are probably spies all over the area ahead, and I'm not familiar with this place!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Di Beizun glanced at her, then looked thoughtfully at the entrance of the small town ahead. He then turned around, looked around, and mysteriously took out a small box from his sleeve. He opened it casually, and Sikong Jin squinted at it before realizing that it seemed to be a compass!
She raised an eyebrow—
This guy's preparations are quite thorough!
He stared intently at the small object in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then, with Sikong Jin in his arms, darted into the dense forest ahead.
Along the way, the rain grew heavier and the wind grew colder. Sikong Jin dared not delay and ran alongside Di Beizun. However, Di Beizun's flowing cloak had already fallen onto her shoulders. The two of them followed the compass in their hands and continued to traverse the dense forest ahead.
The places we passed through were all deserted, and it was difficult to even find a place to stay!
As dawn broke, Sikong Jin, despite wearing a black veil and hat, felt several burning pains on her face as she ran through the crowd. She had been cut by sharp leaves. She cursed Xing Qiyu in her heart and could only hide behind Di Beizun, letting him lead the way.
Di Beizun did not disappoint her expectations. After traveling through wind and rain for almost a day, the two finally arrived in Taizhou City as night fell. Not far ahead was Taizhou City of Dayong.
At the foot of the steps in front of the farewell pavilion outside the city gate of Taizhou.
'call! '
Sikong Jin's legs went weak, and she sat down wearily on the steps, wiping away her sweat. A slight pain was radiating from her face.
She was exhausted. She'd been traveling for so long without a single bite to eat, and was now starving. And this awful weather—the rain showed no sign of stopping. Lord Sikong, annoyed, waved his wet sleeves at the falling raindrops and said, "Damn it, when I get back to the capital, I'm going to get my revenge on Xing Qiyu! I'm so angry! Will I get scars on my face? It's all covered in spiderwebs!"
As she spoke, she couldn't help but raise her hand to touch her face again, gasping for breath.
Di Beizun casually handed her a white jade bottle, "This is a top-grade skin-regenerating ointment, it will heal in a couple of days."
Sikong Jin narrowed her eyes, accepted the bottle without ceremony, uncorked it, and sniffed it. A refreshing and pleasant aroma wafted up. Sikong Jin, of course, knew her stuff very well, and quickly tucked it into her sleeve. "Where are your people? Why don't you have them come out to greet us? And prepare some good food while you're at it?"
Di Beizun pulled his slightly damp cloak tighter, looked up at the darkening sky, and saw fireworks already lit in Taizhou City ahead. He then took out a signal flare from his sleeve, lit it, and quickly, with a few 'whoosh' sounds, the blue signal flare shot into the sky, 'popping' as it bloomed into several brilliant blue flowers high in the night sky...
"It seems that your Fengyun Tower has branches all over the world. Your elder sister, Di Yuanyun, must have been able to find such detailed information so quickly by relying on these branches, right?"
Sikong Jin suddenly realized that she actually knew very little about Di Beizun's background, including his actual strength in the Great Zhou Dynasty. She had no idea what his hidden strength was, especially the Great Zhou's formidable military power, and she didn't know when he had secretly begun to strengthen it. The recent war that destroyed Tian Sheng showed that the armies they had trained seemed to be highly targeted. Xi Fenglie's renowned Eagle Division, known for its ferocity, was completely powerless against his army's intimidation, and they even utilized new weapons in combat!
Sometimes, I really wonder if this guy is a time traveler like Sikong Jin.
"Although Fengyun Tower is known as the number one tower in the world and has a high prestige in the martial arts world, its strength is only focused on the Eastern and Central States, as well as parts of the Western States. Only in these areas does it have a relatively comprehensive grasp of information. The reason why my elder sister discovered your identity was because of the Moon Soul in your possession. I remember that my original intention was not to leave the Moon Soul to you. There are many people who know its value, and it is not good for you."
Emperor Beizun was quite modest, and said a few words in a light tone.
However, as soon as Di Beizun finished speaking, Sikong Jin suddenly remembered the phoenix jade that she had always worn around her neck!
Yes, Feng Yu!
