Fourth Elder died, Wu Yu died, and hundreds of Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps members also died. The plain outside Sunrise City was turned into a piece of scorched earth, with no grass growing.
If Ji Lin hadn't moved the battlefield, and if this sword had fallen on Sunrise City, this medium-sized city would have turned into ruins and a dead city.
No one can survive the brilliance of that Ruheng star, not even Titled Douluo.
Ji Lin didn't stay too long. After sighing, "I'm so strong," it turned into a red light and disappeared into the horizon.
Haiyue City.
The port is as busy as ever, with cargo being moved and ships entering and leaving the port.
On a large transport ship, a headcount was being carried out.
In the large cabin, there were many people lying in various directions. Some of them were in a good mental state and could barely sit cross-legged. But whether they were lying down or sitting, everyone's eyes showed excitement.
Their excitement is because of freedom!
Xiao Xiao, Nan Qiu Qiu, Wang Dong'er, Ling Luochеn and others are counting the number of people, while Wang Qiu'er and Ye Guyi are guarding outside the cabin to prevent any accidents from happening.
This rescue operation can be said to be very smooth, at least in their opinion, the whole process was carried out and completed completely in accordance with Ji Lin's plan.
A total of nearly 600 people were rescued. In order to confuse the pursuers, a dozen older sect masters or college teachers stayed behind to distract the pursuers. It can be said that more than 95% of the hostages were rescued and rushed to join Haiyue City.
That's right, the meeting point set by Ji Lin is Haiyue City.
They were all tired now from flying at full speed and from the abuse their bodies had suffered in the water prison. But with the support of enough food and drinking water, it won't take long for them to regain their fighting strength.
Although Ji Lin hasn't come back yet, they are not worried about Ji Lin's safety. Chi Yuan and Quasi-God are by their side to protect them, plus Ji Lin himself is very strong. Sun Moon Empire can only keep Ji Lin unless he dispatches all the combat power of Holy Spirit Cult and five Soul Engineer groups, right? This is only possible.
"You are all from Freedom Gate, right? Thank you." An old man in his sixties stood up and met Ling Luochеn, who was counting people, and said with gratitude in his eyes.
Ling Luochеn has a cold personality and is not good at words, so Xiao Xiao answered with a smile, "You're welcome, Sun Moon Empire had sinister intentions this time. He even ignored the rules of the competition that have been passed down for many years in the mainland and forcibly imprisoned so many people. How can we Freedom Gate just sit idly by and watch."
A cold light flashed in the old man's eyes, "Sun Moon Empire, what a Sun Moon Empire, do they think that with Soul Tool, they can really dominate the entire continent? Wishful thinking is too early. How can our Douluo Continent's heritage be comparable to that of the Sun Moon Empire?"
Xiao Xiao nodded and said, "As long as we unite as one, even if Sun Moon Empire launches a war of aggression, we will not lose to them. You should rest first, and we will set sail later."
"Well, thank you. We Heavenly Solitude Sect will always remember this incident. In the future, whenever Freedom Gate needs us, we will definitely not refuse."
Xiao Xiao had a smile on his face, and even Ling Luochеn showed a smile. In this way, their work Freedom Gate was not in vain.
Wang Dong'er and Nan Qiu Qiu came over from the other side and checked the number of people with Xiao Xiao and Ling Luochеn. At this time, there were still twelve people who had not arrived, but it was obvious that these twelve people would never be able to arrive.
But this was what they expected, or in other words, only twelve people failed to escape, and the situation was much better than they originally expected.
They didn't know that it was thanks to Ji Lin's shot of Heavenly Fire Tribulation Annihilation that the pursuing Second Elder, Zhongli Brothers, and Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps were lured back to Sunrise City in advance, otherwise more people would be captured.
"It's almost time to set sail. Why hasn't Ji Lin come back yet?" Nan Qiu Qiu was a little worried about Ji Lin's situation at this time.
"Hey, Qiu Qiu are you caring about me?"
As soon as Nan Qiu Qiu finished speaking, Ji Lin's joking voice came from the air.
The next moment, Ji Lin and Chi Yuan carrying Feng Ling landed on the deck.
"Oh, who is worried about you? I'm just afraid that you will delay our retreat."
Nan Qiu Qiu crossed his arms and said with disdain.
"Just let it be."
Ji Lin did not expose the suddenly arrogant Nan Qiu Qiu, because at this time a middle-aged man in yellow clothes came to them and looked excitedly at Feng Ling who was thrown on the deck by Chi Yuan.
"Who are you? Young Master? Are you really the Young Master? How could you become like this?"
This person is the leader of the Chongtian Sect. Although Feng Ling's gender has been changed, his body shape and appearance have not changed much. This middle-aged man Chongtian Sect recognized him at first sight. He originally thought he was Evil Soul Master Feng Ling, who was taken away from the water prison, was already in serious danger. He would definitely be punished by the sect master when he returned to the sect. Unexpectedly, Feng Ling was still alive in another village. Although he seemed to be tortured a lot, as long as he lived, that would be fine.
After sending away the grateful elder Chongtian Sect, Ji Lin looked at the hostages in the cabin. All those who were supposed to come were here, and those who didn't come could no longer come. They had done a good enough job and there was no need to wait any longer.
"Set the ship!"
A few minutes later, the huge anchor was slowly pulled up. With the joint efforts of the hired sailors, the huge cargo ship slowly pushed out of the harbor and sailed towards the boundless sea...
Sun Moon Empire, Royal Palace.
"What? The hostages escaped?" Xu Tianran's usually calm voice suddenly became full of penetrating power, causing the entire roof of the hall to tremble slightly.
Xu Tianran, who was wearing a bright yellow robe, had a gloomy face that seemed to be dripping with water. He looked at the people kneeling on the ground below with cold eyes, and his eyes were filled with murderous secrets.
Kneeling below were the commanders of the Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps regiment, as well as the commanders of the two Soul Engineer regiments stationed around Sunrise City.
"Say, what's going on? Please explain the details clearly." Xu Tianran said calmly. In a short period of time, he had regained his composure, but everyone could feel that this was just the calm before the storm. If the matter was not explained clearly, or if there were any mistakes in the process, someone would be dead immediately.
Ju Zi is sitting next to Xu Tianran, her face is also a little ugly. She is guarded by Holy Spirit Cult and two Soul Engineer groups, and Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps, who is best at speed, is always supported by Beast King Class Soul Engineer Corps. She actually allowed hundreds of hostages to escape completely. This is simply a shame and humiliation! What's more, these hostages are extremely useful and can make the original Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms surrender. At the same time, these people staying in the Sun Moon Empire are equivalent to greatly restricting the power of the future high-end soul masters originally belonging to the Douluo Continent Three Kingdoms. Now that everyone has run away, all plans have to change, and revenge from the three countries originally belonging to the Douluo Continent may break out at any time on the border!
Several Soul Engineer regiment leaders immediately started reporting. Each of them was responsible for a part. The three people's words combined basically explained the entire hostage escape process clearly.
Xu Tianran looked at the leader Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps with a gloomy face and cold eyes. He gritted his teeth and said, "You mean, Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps, we have lost one-third of our manpower. What are you doing as the leader?"
Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps and Regimental Commander Wang are also extremely distressed, those are his subordinates! He brought it out single-handedly, and now it is directly reduced by one-third. Regimental Commander Wang gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, when I led people to Sunrise City, the hostages had already escaped. I brought two hundred people. We went to chase the hostages and left a hundred people behind Sunrise City. As a result, they all died on the plain outside Sunrise City. The person in charge of commanding them was Holy Spirit Cult."
The leaders of the other two Soul Engineer regiments also chimed in. "At that time, we were cleaning up the mess and integrating our subordinates, but the Holy Spirit Cult people took hundreds of Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps members to chase a The enemy, and then there was a big explosion on the plain. No one knew what happened. They only knew that the people who chased him, including a Titled Douluo elder from Holy Spirit Cult, died in the big explosion.
"Come, please Imperial Tutor to discuss matters. "After listening to the words of the three captains, Xu Tianran Leng Leng gave the order, and immediately the guards rushed to convey it.
Xu Tianran's eyes were slightly narrowed, with a look of thought in his eyes. He took care of the hostages. The most critical part was done by Holy Spirit Cult. He also used a drug that could disperse the soul master Soul Power, but in the end, he escaped completely. What did Holy Spirit Cult do for food? The two Titled Douluo level Evil Soul Master couldn't hold it there, couldn't they even buy time for reinforcements?
Moreover, in the end, in order to chase a person who came to rescue, he actually picked up a Titled Douluo and a third of the Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps members. This is too strange.
"Has that person's identity been found out? It was the one who was chased in the end. "Xu Tianran Leng Leng asked.
The leader of Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps, Wang Yiheng, said respectfully, "It has been found out. That person should be from Freedom Gate. Not long ago, he also led the team to participate in the All-Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament."
Hearing these words, Ju Zi, who was originally expressionless, changed slightly, but soon disappeared, and no one noticed the strangeness in her just for a moment.
"Because he had participated in the competition, Soul Engineer recognized him at the time. His name was Ji Lin. He was the owner of Freedom Gate and also a participating Freedom Gate Team Captain, but his cultivation level is only Soul Saint. I wonder how he escaped from being rounded up by Titled Douluo and my hundreds of Soul Engineer? How did you wipe out all the pursuers who had one Titled Douluo, one Soul Douluo, and one third of Evil Lord Soul Engineer Corps on the plain? This is so strange!"
