Yugong Shrine, temporary command post.
With Great Tengu's mid-competition withdrawal, it triggered a domino effect, with more and more members of the Hundred Demons) withdrawing from the competition.
"Damn it!" Zashiki cursed in the chat, "That scoundrel Su Hang, just when I was about to catch up with him, he slammed on the brakes and pulled my car keys out the ignition!"
Yugong Youjing's face was gloomy.
The Kyoto South Expressway has been turned into a sea of fire, with a Kawasaki H2 motorcycle burning every few kilometers.
This was all done by Su Hang, who used dangerous terrain such as curves, narrow roads, and long tunnels to punch and kick the motorcycles of his opponents, and even resorted to the despicable act of pulling out the keys of their motorcycles, destroying more than twenty of their motorcycles.
Fortunately, their safety measures were adequate, and only a few members sustained injuries; no one died.
Yugong Youjing clenched his fist. " Su Hang wants to go to Kyoto International Airport and escape Kyoto by plane. We absolutely cannot let him succeed."
"Your Highness, I have caught up with Su Hang and request a vehicle collision command," Xue Ji's voice came through the communication channel.
"Request rejected." Yugong Youjing decisively refused. He could order the Great Tengu, Zashiki, and other members of the Hundred Demons to risk their lives to crash into Su Hang, but he couldn't do that with Xue Ji.
"Your mission is to tail and monitor Su Hang; you don't need to do anything dangerous outside of this task."
"Yes, Your Highness."
At this moment, Lian Shou brought good news. "Commander-in-Chief, Kyoto International Airport has been temporarily taken over by our 3rd Division. All domestic and international flights have been suspended, and private aircraft have also been placed under military control."
"Furthermore, we have partnered with the Kyoto Special Police to set up a checkpoint at the Kyoto South Expressway terminus toll station. If any motorcycle kidnappers dare to come, we'll make sure they don't leave alive!"
"Good!"
Yugong Youjing, but his joy was short-lived, as surveillance footage showed that Su Hang turned onto the highway ramp, exited the highway at the midway toll station, and re-entered Kyoto city.
What is he trying to do?
Yugong Youjing's nerves tightened instantly. Did Su Hang feel he had nowhere to escape, so he decided to go all out and storm into the city to carry out a terrorist attack, and kidnap a few innocent citizens as hostages?
"Your Highness, Su Hang has stormed into the Kyoto International Exhibition Center!" Xue Ji's voice came through the communication channel.
"What?"
Yugong Youjing's pupils constricted. The International Convention Center was hosting a summer anime convention, attracting over ten thousand people. If Su Hang were to act desperately and launch a terrorist attack there, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Your Highness, Su Hang has broken out of the Kyoto International Exhibition Center!"
"A stroke of luck amidst misfortune."
Yugong Youjing trembled and exhaled, thankfully Su Hang was a self-proclaimed righteous person and hadn't gone so far as to carry out a terrorist attack.
Two more hours passed.
"Your Highness... Your Highness, Su Hang has stopped on the main road." Xue Ji's surprised voice came from behind.
"Parking?"
Yugong Youjing was stunned.
Xue Ji chuckled softly, "He's out of oil."
"Out of gas? Yeah! He drove for two hours on the highway and three hours in the city, a total of five hours, and without any gas refueling, the tank must be empty."
Yugong Youjing was overjoyed, so excited he could barely speak. "Immediately surround Su Hang and evacuate the nearby crowd. I'll be there right away!"
"Understood, Your Highness."
Sovereign Dominion Official Livestream Room.
Hundreds of millions of viewers remained silent.
"Did it... fail?"
"Damn it, I'm so frustrated! In that intense high-speed motorcycle chase, Imperial Emperor won, but he just had to run out of gas."
"From 10 a. m. to 3 p. m., Exalted Emperor and the Boss Liuli fled for five hours, but they still couldn't escape Kyoto."
"Is even God feeling sorry for us? Just a moment ago the sky was clear and blue, but now it's covered in dark clouds, a sign that a storm is about to break."
" The BMW S1000RR has a range of 250 kilometers. I mean... wait a minute? Exalted Emperor drove Liuli for about 500 kilometers. Logically speaking, it should have run out of gas when it exited the highway."
"Brother, you just realized? Although Exalted Emperor's motorcycle is a collaboration with Imperial Emperor Steed and has a larger fuel tank, it definitely can't go 500 kilometers. Besides, we watched the whole thing, and he didn't refuel at all."
soon.
Viewers in the live stream noticed something was off about Yugong Nishang. Instead of being sad or upset, she seemed nervous but also a little expectant.
"Damn it, we have to succeed!" Hu Xiao stared intently at the live stream, barely daring to breathe.
On the main road of Sakurada Street, Emperor Hero sat steadily on his motorcycle, stretching his wrists. On the back seat, a woman in a wedding dress with purple hair covered her face with her hands, too scared to look up. All around them were members of the menacing Hyakki Yagyō ( Night Parade of a Hundred Demons ).
"Brother Youjing is here."
Yugong Nishang's palms were sweating, and her heart jumped into her throat.
A Toyota Century minivan drove into the encirclement, and a figure in red robes and a swordsman's robe stepped out. It was none other than Yugong Youjing Hundred Demons Night Parade Group. He drew his reverse-blade sword and strode towards Emperor Hero.
The viewers in the live stream were on tenterhooks.
"Brothers, I can't watch anymore."
"Could he deliver a fatal blow to Exalted Emperor? After all, in that high-speed motorcycle chase, Exalted Emperor destroyed dozens of their motorcycles."
"He wouldn't dare! If he dares to kill Exalted Emperor, let him taste the wrath of hundreds of millions of Huaxia netizens."
"We did it!" Yugong Nishang shouted with ecstasy.
In the live stream, Yugong Youjing cleaved through the Emperor Hero's helmet with a single sword strike, her long black hair fluttering in the wind, and the heart-shaped diamond pendants hanging from her earlobes sparkling. A cool and elegant female face appeared.
" Mother Huang?"
At the Wuhan eStar training base, Qingrong was utterly astonished, "Is Emperor Hero the Mother Huang?"
" Phoenix?"
Huahai was completely bewildered. Inside the Imperial Emperor suit, shouldn't it be his half-brother, Exalted Emperor, with no blood relation? How did he become the Phoenix captain in Phoenix Crown and Rosy Robes?
"I didn't blink either." Wanmo rubbed her eyes, then seemed to remember something, "Speaking of which, we only Yugong Nishang that Exalted Emperor wore an Imperial Emperor suit to save Boss Liuli..."
"Could it be that the person who saved Boss Liuli wasn't Exalted Emperor, but the Phoenix God?"
Question marks floated across the live stream's public chat.
But the shocking events didn't end there.
The purple-haired woman in the wedding dress jumped off the back of the motorcycle, then covered her face with her hands and walked with a seductive gait to Yugong Youjing. She then suddenly lowered her hands and made a funny face.
"Silver... Silver Dragon?"
At the Chengdu AG training base, Menglei stared in disbelief, unable to believe his eyes. That nose, those eyes, that mouth—it was none other than the captain of Twilight of the Gods, Champion Emperor Silver Dragon!
"How could it be Silver Dragon?" Yinuo was completely dumbfounded. "The Boss Liuli has suddenly transformed into Silver Dragon?"
Question marks were scrolling wildly across the live stream's chat.
" Imperial Emperor is not Exalted Emperor, Liuli is not Liuli, I understand!" At the Chongqing Wolves training base, Fly pushed up his glasses with his index finger, the lenses gleaming coldly. "New machine, wow, I keep touching your belly."
There is only one truth!
Xiaopang and Yaodao were puzzled. "What's the truth?"
Fly lightly chopped the Xiaopang's neck. "In a place we overlooked, the Exalted Emperor Liuli and the Phoenix Silver Dragon were switched."
" Brother Niu, I understand switching babies, it's like a cat replacing the prince," Yaodao couldn't help but say, "But why did you knock Xiaopang unconscious?"
"That's not important!" Fly stared at the live stream screen. "What's important is, where are Exalted Emperor and Liuli right now?"
