C545 Tears in His Eyes
1"No, it's not them, it's the crossbows, not one, but thousands of them" After a while, Daoist Huang Yi saw the clues and exclaimed.
"Isn't there only one of those mysterious crossbows? If there were so many of them, why didn't they take them out earlier?"
"Could it be that this batch of crossbows was produced in the past two days?"
"They only used two days to produce so many of them. Isn't this too mysterious?"
The other experts started discussing at the same time.
"Retreat!" The Alchemy Path elites were instantly killed in batches. Forget about Pan Hou, even Empress would not be able to fight such a battle. Daoist Huang Yi decisively ordered the retreat.
"Consider them able to escape quickly."
The soldiers on the city wall all had the joy of surviving a disaster. Lo Bofeng's eyes were filled with tears. He only had less than a hundred thousand soldiers in his hands, and the difference in strength between them was huge.
Raising an alchemy general required a lot of Spirit Stone, not to mention tens of thousands of land. Moreover, there were more than a hundred thousand soldiers guarding the border in the north to prevent the invasion of Ancient Tai Huang City.
The soldiers from all over the south were either taken in or defeated by the Third Marquis during the chaos.
When the enemy's main force had come out just now, he had once felt despair. It was the Thunderbolt Crossbow that saved him, and the generals under his command.
He choked on thousands of words. Lo Bofeng silently cupped his hands and bowed to Su Yuan.
"Boom." Affected by him, all the generals in the city bowed to him.
Su Yuan looked a little embarrassed. "Well, it's time for our team to rest today." As he spoke, he hurriedly pulled Dai Si, Shi Yu and the others away.
"Everyone, please get up. I, Laohei, cannot bear such a big gift." Only his loud voice reverberated between heaven and earth, but he had long disappeared without a trace.
When he reached the tower, the figure of the assassin appeared in his mind.
"I can't let this assassin die this time. No matter what, I have to find out who is behind this." His eyes became extremely cold.
Soon, they returned to Laohei's inn. However, they found that the area within a few hundred meters was filled with people. Most of them were craftsmen.
"Young Master Immortal." A few of the more famous craftsmen recognized him and greeted him.
"En." Su Yuan nodded at them. Not long after entering the inn, he found Aadai. Almost all the empty spaces in the inn were filled with craftsmen. They were all earnestly making Thunderbolt Crossbows.
"Juzi, you came back just in time. I wanted to discuss with you. The three lords suggested that we change the location of the Thunderbolt Crossbows to a weapon workshop near Tai Heng Keep, which is very big.
Moreover, the facilities are complete, so the food and drinks of the craftsmen will also be much more convenient. What do you think?" Aadai came over and pulled his sleeve as he asked.
"It should be like this, but you have to be quick. Don't delay the process too much."
"Understood."
After saying that, Aadai, the Prime Minister, and the other three Great Generals began to mobilize. The tens of thousands of craftsmen quickly moved towards Tai Heng Pass like a troop of soldiers.
As the inventor of the weapon, Aadai would definitely go.
Aatu, Lee Xiaosa, Tan Guoer, and the others also looked at Su Yuan. Obviously, they were going to ask for his opinion.
"All of you should go over as well. Try your best to help if there is anything you can help with. I still have some matters to attend to, so I'll go over after I'm done with it." Su Yuan smiled at them and said.
"Oh." They also followed the large group.
Su Yuan's figure flashed and arrived at the backyard. Immediately after, he entered the cage again.
Seeing that the assassin was alive and well, he felt relieved.
"Yo, you finally remembered me." This person still had a belly full of cynicism, and a relaxed smile hung on his face.
"Who was that killer before, and who are you? Who asked you to come?" Su Yuan did not have the patience to waste time with him. He asked him three questions in one breath.
This person only smiled, but did not answer.
Seeing this, Su Yuan's face instantly became very gloomy and terrifying.
He wouldn't show any mercy to his enemies. He struck out with his palm towards this person, then retracted his palm as a claw.
The Qi penetrated into this man's body, wanting to crush his bones and internal organs into pieces.
"Ah..." This person was in so much pain that his facial features had completely changed.
Every time the time it takes an incense stick to burn, he would torture this person once.
"You... you can't beat them." This person was actually very stubborn.
After more than ten times of this torment, he had already collapsed onto the ground. It looked like he was about to lose his breath.
"Let me ask again, who are they?"
"Nine Li Span, Apricot Flower Village." The assassin finally couldn't take it anymore.
"Who's there?" Su Yuan took another step forward.
"Won't you know if you go there?" After the assassin finished speaking, he had already fainted.
"Nine Li Span, Apricot Flower Village." Su Yuan narrowed his eyes.
After leaving the inn, he asked people where this place was. This Apricot Flower Village was not close to Ancient City Taishen. It was located at the border between Ancient City Taishen and Ancient City Tai Huang, which was the northern border of Ancient City Taishen.
He led a white horse in the night, brought some food, and prepared to go on his way.
At this time, the southern gate had Third Marquis's troops, so they could not leave. The other gates were also heavily guarded.
However, it was fortunate that there were already quite a few people who recognized him. He only spent a bit of effort, and then left the ancient city.
He sped all the way to the northern border.
After asking around, he finally found the Nine-Li Springwind Village.
He led the horse and walked in the village. Along the way, he found more than a dozen houses. They were all very small, but there was no one inside.
Flower petals filled the sky at the edge of a swamp. The ground was already covered with flowers, but there was a large courtyard in the middle of the sea of flowers. It was antique.
The scenery here was very beautiful, but the Ancient Heavenly Master Coin on his waist began to tremble.
"There's a demon..."
He stopped his horse and looked towards the courtyard with his' Undeserved Eye '.
This courtyard was real, so it wasn't an illusion. The flower petals in the sky and the ground were real as well.
However, the petals were densely packed with "silver threads," even on the four walls of the courtyard.
"These... are spider webs." Su Yuan frowned.
"Esteemed guest, where did you come from?" A man's voice came from the courtyard. His voice was magnetic, but not loud.
"It... is also a killer? A spider spirit." Su Yuan felt that he had fallen into a trap. It looked more like a trap.
Through divine sense, he found that this spider spirit was very strong. It was probably the strongest opponent he had ever encountered.
"A Ancient Heavenly Master Coin is hanging from your waist. With your appearance and age, I think I know who you are." This man had already walked out of the courtyard.
