After capturing the two cultivators, Zhang Yu brought them back to the site where the Wei Clan Army had previously been attacked.
He looked over and saw the wreckage of two combat flying vessels on the ground. They had clearly been shot down by that magical artifact and crashed. Though the other flying vessels appeared to have landed safely, they had sustained varying degrees of damage. Fortunately, the Wei Clan Army soldiers had suffered no losses.
Ning Ying of the Golden Eye Office was below, clearing up the aftermath. When she saw the two men behind him wrapped in Heartlight Seals, she hurried over. Once she had received his permission, she instructed her fellow officers to take the two cultivators away.
Having successfully intercepted and slain the invading enemy this time, she was clearly in high spirits. "Patrol Guard Zhang, we have confirmed that the attackers truly came from Nether City, and we have wiped out every Nether City cultivator who took part in the attack.
"Patrol Guard Zhang, we achieved such great results this time only because of your cooperation. I believe they will not dare act rashly again anytime soon."
Zhang Yu did not see it that way. Though they had won this time, he could sense that the other side had not brought out its true strength.
Leaving aside the magical artifact that had struck from ten thousand li away, there had scarcely been a single cultivator in this ambush who possessed genuine strength. Perhaps this was because his combat prowess far surpassed that of ordinary peers, but regardless, not even one person capable of facing him head-on had appeared. That was by no means normal.
Thus, he believed that their true purpose this time might not have been to attack him at all, but something else.
