Chen Duhe made a fierce dive forward, finally pinning a big yellow dog beneath him, rendering it unable to move despite its struggles.
The Golden Beast cheered beside him, celebrating the victory.
Chen Duhe felt as if a mountain had descended from the sky, blocking out the sunlight from the world, plunging everything into darkness.
He slowly raised his head to see a familiar figure.
In a panic, Chen Duhe loosened his grip, allowing the yellow dog to escape, howling as it fled.
"Take me to see your mother."
The family gathered in a corner of the village within a fenced yard.
Dressed as a village woman, Ning Xiang spoke first: "You came at the right time. Recently, cultivators from the Shengyun Sect have been searching the nearby villages one by one. It won't be long before they find us. We can't stay here any longer."
In a remote village, the sudden arrival of so many outsiders couldn't remain hidden forever, no matter how well concealed.
Zhaozhao had already packed their bags and asked seriously: "Are we going to hide in the mountains again?"
Chen Sansi shook his head lightly, his voice somewhat deep: "No more hiding."
They really couldn't hide anymore.
Ling Kui, that scoundrel, was clearly determined to kill his family to avenge the Ling Family.
Even if they dug three feet under to hide in a tunnel, they would be found by cultivators.
Chen Sansi looked down at his eldest son: "You said earlier that you were very brave?"
"Nobility isn't brave, but I am!"
Chen Duhe repeated the words he had said before.
"Good, then let me see this time if you truly have courage."
"Chen Sansi has escaped!"
Within the government office.
Upon receiving the news, Shangguan Haichang hurriedly entered the hall to report.
Upon hearing the news.
Everyone, including the rightful Emperor, was taken aback.
Qian Qiren closed his eyes in anger: "This man must have seen the unfavorable situation and went to seek refuge in Yunding Palace!"
"What reinforcements!"
"By leaving, he's certainly waiting for us to exhaust ourselves to reap the benefits!"
"Withdraw, Your Majesty!"
"Withdraw, tonight at dusk, Chang'an will seal the city, and it will be too late if we don't move now!"
In the midst of panic,
the rightful Emperor ordered a retreat while personally leading civil and military officials to the city wall, preparing to announce the complete abandonment of the city.
Cui Zhichen said: "Please dismantle the formation and leave with us."
In the current situation.
Only with the protection of a Second-Tier Array Master could they hope to retreat to other cities north of the Fei River.
This process would inevitably result in heavy casualties.
The soldiers were well aware, knowing they were...
destined to be abandoned!
Additionally, the enemies outside occasionally shouting the "countdown," the city was plunged into extreme panic.
Some soldiers even lost their heads, stumbling over each other on the stairs to the city wall, showing signs of abandoning armor and being thrown into disarray!
A booming voice echoed throughout Kunyang.
"You tens of thousands of men, anxious and listless all day, have no fighting spirit or courage, are you even inferior to the women and children of my Chen Family?!"
Appeared above the city walls.
A white robe stood tall against the wind, behind him were five women, one dressed in a black and gold gown, dignified and graceful, another in red, valiantly swaggering, the remaining three each unique in their own way.
Though the five were women, none showed fear as they set foot on the battlefield.
A four-year-old child jumped off the flying boat and began selecting weapons on the city wall.
Sun Li's cold voice sounded: "Our entire Chen Family is here, swearing to live and die with Kunyang City!"
