“Ahhh!” Colonel Hua and his group dashed toward the town, scared witless as they scrambled to find large objects to shield them from the arrows.
However, this round of arrows came too suddenly, so how could the Qiu soldiers react in time? At least half of the soldiers were injured by the raining arrows and tumbled to the ground, howling in pain with fear in their eyes.
Qiao Mu was also shocked and finally managed to pull her gaze away from the shamble of soldiers a moment later.
She looked up at the sky and heard a low call.

Qiao Mu dazedly knelt on the back of the cyan bird and bent over to look down.
Colonel Hua was hidden in the crowd and stamping with fury. With several other soldiers’ support, he managed to climb onto the town’s lookout tower. He commanded the soldiers to use the large siege crossbows to shoot the cyan bird.
This type of large siege crossbow was very powerful and had a long range, but its disadvantage was also obvious: It was slow to dock.
Colonel Hua had a vicious expression as he ordered the soldiers to aim at the child on the back of the cyan bird instead of the cyan bird itself.
However, he just moved and Ao Ye’s sword was held against his neck.
Faster than Colonel Hua could see, dozens of black shadows swiftly climbed up and occupied the advantageous spots on the lookout tower, their swords slashing across the Qiu soldiers’ necks.
*Drip drip.* Blood flowed down the wall of the tower, and the thousands of soldiers on the ground held their sabers high as they noisily surrounded the lookout tower.
Ao Ye’s sword lightly touched Colonel Hua’s neck, and Colonel Hua felt like a poisonous snake had slid around his neck, the icy feeling causing him to shudder.
“W-what do you want?”
“Nicely withdraw your soldiers, and I’ll leave your corpse intact.” Ao Ye took out a token and dangled it in front of Colonel Hua with an aloof expression. Colonel Hua’s pupils contracted. If Ao Ye was not half holding onto him, he would have already weakly collapsed onto the ground.
T-the C-crown Prince of the Mo Kingdom’s personal token... Why was it like this? Why did they provoke someone like the Crown Prince of the southern Mo Kingdom?

“Faster! Make your people stop all offensive actions like archery and catapult! Otherwise, we’ll consider it a provocation. You can’t withstand the fury of our kingdom’s crown prince.” Ao Ye pressed his long sword closer against Colonel Hua’s neck.
At the same time, the cyan bird that kept circling in the sky used its giant wings to fan a wave of wild gales, sending all of the rocks and arrows arcing in the air back to the ground.
Anguished howls rang out from the group of Qiu soldiers. They were no match for Qingluan at all.
Colonel Hua quickly hollered, “Stop all attacks! Stop!”
“Shriek!” Qingluan flapped its giant wings and slid across the jade-colored sky, disappearing from everyone’s sight.
Ao Ye’s sword slipped across Colonel Hua’s neck before he tossed the corpse off of the lookout tower.
The Qiu soldiers reached out to catch Colonel Hua’s falling corpse. They were like a flock of sheep without their shepherd as they fearfully looked up at the dozens of powerful youths in black standing on top of the lookout tower.
“Go back and tell your king to properly prepare a batch of supplies and send it to the First Peak of the Holy Water Sect for Miss Qiao as compensation for your offense. If the compensation doesn’t arrive within three days...” Ao Ye narrowed his cold eyes. “You don’t want to know the consequences of offending our kingdom’s crown prince.”
After leaving behind these ruthless words, the group of youths in black immediately left without any regard for the Qiu soldiers’ howling and bawling.
