In the end, only two Bolangsha Fire Cranes survived and escaped the Flower Court.
After all, they are Fire Cranes, possessing extraordinary resistance to poison and exceptional flying skills.
Just as Yitiao was not harmed by the poison of the Annihilation Arrows back in the day, they too would not fall to such Magic Arrows.
What could harm them were only the ferocious combat and powerful Aegean Magic.
Yitiao spared them, seeing them as fellow creatures, otherwise, they would have had no chance of escape.
As the Phantom Beast Riders and Heavy Infantry moved in to cleanse the palace’s interior, this siege battle came to a complete end.
Bai Suqing witnessed the entire Summer Palace siege battle, left speechless for a long time, a chill quietly spreading from her heart to her feet. Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on novｅlfire.net
With just arrows, air force, and magic, without using any other siege equipment, the Summer Palace Guards managed to annihilate the first Divine Beast Association of the Silk Continent, the mighty Flower Court, in less than half an hour!
More than three thousand humanoid Divine Beasts plus four super-level ones, and in the end, only two Fire Cranes broke through and made their escape!
Bai Suqing really couldn’t imagine what kind of powerful beings her Aurora had been following all these years.
"What are you thinking about?" Yitiao looked at his beloved with peculiar curiosity.
Bai Suqing’s question didn’t exist at all in Yitiao’s mind; he never even entertained the thought that the gathered elite of the Aegean Continent wouldn’t be able to handle an organization like the Flower Court.
"Aurora... now you... have changed..." Bai Suqing felt a deep coldness, spreading from her heart into her very bones, causing her gaze and body to tremble: "... you’ve changed so much I can hardly recognize you anymore..."
The strong wind rose, sweeping through the light smoke and thin mist among the mountains, mingled with the scent of gunpowder and blood, rushing across the floating clouds.
"What do you mean by that?" Yitiao had already guessed what Bai Suqing wanted to say.
But he had learned to play dumb, a trick he picked up from the boss.
Bai Suqing bit her lip, reached out, and pointed her slender jade fingers at the white jade-like plaza before the hall.
The vast plaza was covered with blood and arrows, and the laurels were either draped with corpses or lying in dense patches, thick smoke rising over the jade buildings, no groans from the pools of blood, only the dead’s eyes and numerous bloody holes.
A Giant Beast with green scales and a golden-eyed dragon head, and a pure black Giant Bear were the most striking, their massive bodies leaving giant craters on the ground, the wounds rolling across their colossal forms appeared intimidating, and arrows lay scattered.
The Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast had just left a deep impression on Bai Suqing. This super-level Divine Beast was knocked down from the sky, struggled to its feet despite its serious injuries, and with trembling limbs, charged with effort towards the Heavy Infantry riding giant elephants that were nearest to it.
A long path paved with its own blood and a grievously wounded Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast still propelled its massive body, using its terrible inertia speed!
The stout man at the very front of all the long-nosed cavalry simply stood up from the elephant’s back, raised his arm to throw a spear as long as a flagpole, and then sat back down, making no further moves.
The sharp spear drew an arc through the air, plunging heavily into the eye of the Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast, causing the Giant Beast to charge even more frantically, the ground trembling.
On the Silk Continent, there were indeed many governmental cavalry daring to face a charging Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast head-on, but Bai Suqing had never heard of any governmental cavalry who could remain so indifferent, watching the Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast rush towards them with such cold eyes.
Their gaze was as if what was charging at them was merely a raccoon, not a colossal beast thirty feet tall.
The pride of these long-nosed cavalry was not without reason, no one else acted against this fatally wounded Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast.
Due to its severe injuries, the Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast finally toppled, staggering forward, with the thick spear tail swinging from its forehead, it collapsed before all the long-nosed cavalry, pushing up rocks and soil with its enormous trunk, creating a large mound.
Just one more step, just one more step and this Bluewater Golden-eyed Beast could have crashed into these long-nosed cavalry.
But, it was still one step short.
The wind from the Giant Beast’s crash sent the cloaks of countless cavalry fluttering and flapping, yet the gaze of these long-nosed cavalry remained as firm as stone.
This was exactly what Bai Suqing found most terrifying.
"Qingqing..." Yitiao looked at the bodies, smiling bitterly: "Are you trying to ask me why I’ve become so indiscriminate now? Why have I grown so cold-blooded and ruthless?"
"Who exactly is the boss you’re following?" Bai Suqing bit her lip, raised her head, and looked at Yitiao: "For two days and a night, you’ve just been hurrying on the road, why haven’t you told me who you’ve been following all this time?"
"You’ve met the boss, haven’t you...?" Yitiao took a deep breath, filling his chest fiercely: "... Qingqing... do you not like my boss?"
"I just feel that your boss and his army are too cold-blooded, too ruthless." Bai Suqing’s shiny, black eyes gradually dimmed: "... Aurora, after all, you are our Silk Divine Beast..."
