Chapter 385: Ending

The flames gradually spread on the mountain. The dry and cold winter climate and the leaf litter left by the trees on the mountain all provided convenience for burning. What was even more coincidental was that a strong northwest wind suddenly blew at this time.

The wind can't blow out the fire, but it will burn more violently because it brings more oxygen.

The official army only sent people up the mountain to attack in a symbolic manner. In fact, they had already prepared to light the fire and evacuated immediately to encircle and suppress the Sirius Sect members who were guarding the foot of the mountain and tried to escape.

And the knights and knights who came up from the back mountain were not blind. They all saw the terrible fire that gradually spread, and they all immediately understood which damn thing set the fire, and they all praised the behavior of the officers and soldiers, such as You will use complimentary words such as saying that you will give birth to a son without an asshole in the future...

Of course, you can't be vague about scolding and running away.

The fire spread irregularly and came very quickly. The people from Jianghu near the foot of the mountain ran the fastest. After all, with their lightness skills, they really couldn't jump off the cliff and still escape unscathed. When the fire came, they were on the spot. Just ran away cleanly.

The disciples of the great sect in the village also wanted to leave, but seeing that their master was still entangled with one of the four heavenly kings of the Sirius Sect, they could only bite the bullet and continue to struggle with the members of the Sirius Sect.

But that one of the four heavenly kings is not stupid. There is no need to fight to the death with a few martial arts masters from the Central Plains in a place like this. He seizes the opportunity and jumps directly from the mountain. In the blink of an eye, he can fly. It disappeared into the vast night.

To be honest, it's not like Qinggong at all, it's just like bringing a glider with you.

After all, without Liu Tianquan, the remaining three people could only cling to him and be completely unable to keep him. Since the real master ran away, there was no need for them to stay there and wait to be roasted pigs, so they all told their disciples to hurry down the mountain.

The wind helped the fire, and the flames burned bigger and bigger. Everyone followed closely in the smoke, fearing that they would get separated and find their way down the mountain. There was some confusion for a while.

In the midst of this chaos, Zhou Yuxuan found a cave entrance halfway up the mountain, and Liu Tianquan, who had turned into a corpse, was lying next to him.

"Uncle, look, the fatal wound on Mr. Liu's chest does not look like it was caused by an ordinary weapon."

Zhou Wenyi from Qijue Sect squatted next to Liu Tianquan's body and even touched the wound with his fingers.

"It looks like it was burned, but how long does it take to penetrate a person's heart and burn it out?"

"The Sirius Sect probably doesn't have this kind of technique. My nephew has fought with it many times and has never seen anyone use it."

And what’s even more surprising is, how could Liu Tianquan die here?

"Where did you find him?"

"In this cave, my nephew found an opened entrance in the main hall of the cottage. There was not only a secret room, but also an escape passage. My nephew followed him all the way and found Elder Liu inside. He seemed to be following something. People had fought there, and there was still a lot of blood stains nearby.”

"This old man wanted to fish in troubled waters while we were dealing with the Sirius Cult. He may have collided with someone who had the same intention, and he died tragically on the spot."

"Uncle, there have been some bad rumors about the Liu family recently..."

"I can't believe it all, but this Liu family..."

Zhou Wenyi shook his head:

"They are not good birds. Stay away from them."

Although the things the Liu family did were done very cleanly and left no evidence, it was not that no one noticed that they had some problems. It just has to be decent in terms of face, and no one can pierce through this layer of window paper.

"There are no traces of the Optimus Stone in the secret room of the stockade. The Optimus Stone collected by the Sirius Sect from the Central Plains has probably been transported away."

"I will ask my disciples to pay more attention on the route to the northwest. The southern border will be left to your Sixteenth Village and Tianjue Palace."

Seeing that the fire was about to spread, Zhou Wenyi stood up:

"Let's go, take him with you. No matter how Liu Tianquan died, there is no need for us to break up with the Liu family and give them face."

The two of them lifted up Liu Tianquan's body, and before the fire was over, they quickly jumped down the mountain with their superb dexterity skills. Soon the whole mountain was enveloped in a sea of ​​fire.

–‐‐——–‐‐——

In the eyes of most Jianghu knights, this operation was obviously extremely successful.

Although the officers and soldiers set a fire that made them all look disgraceful, this battle not only destroyed a large stronghold of the Sirius Sect, but also successfully killed and wounded countless believers.

The officers and soldiers heard that they had captured a lot of prisoners who had escaped in flames, and were preparing a set of memory recovery techniques to make them spit out more information.

For example, do you have any other strongholds in Yuezhou State? What do you want to do in the Central Plains?

However, there are not no casualties on the Jianghu Knight side. The Sirius Sect has a large number of people. Although the quality is uneven, the quantity will eventually produce a few hits that are difficult to deal with.

There were more than a hundred people from all walks of life who came here because of the reputation. About twenty or thirty of them died on the spot on the mountain, and the rest were basically injured.

The big sect responsible for taking the lead was not all beheaded. Although there were no dead, they were all injured. Elder Liu Tianquan of the Liu family died in a tragic manner, which made many Sanren who were new to the world suddenly realize that there was no point. If you are really capable, don't get involved in major affairs when your brain gets hot.

Of course, the Sixteenth Village, which was responsible for gathering these people, could not let go. They provided food, shelter, and medicine for wounds. They also expressed their willingness to contact the families of the deceased and provide a pension and other aftermath matters.

Yang Yiyi, who was seriously injured, was inconspicuous among the crowd, and no one asked her where her injuries came from.

After all, there were too many injured people, and the doctors who were specially invited were almost too busy to care about these things.

According to Yang Yiyi's idea, she should run as far as she can. Especially when the Liu family's disciples came back with Liu Tianquan's body, Yang Yiyi's hair almost stood up in fear.

However, Li Chengxi reassured her that being too conspicuous now would make people suspicious.

After all, no one would tell from the body that it was Yang Yiyi who did it.

From the body, at most, it can be seen that Liu Tianquan suffered internal injuries before his death. The big hole in the chest that evaporated even the heart would make people very puzzled as to what caused it.

Although there are already muskets in this plane, and Tang Lianyu has used them, the difference between the psychic laser gun and the musket that shoots lead bullets is not a little bit.

At that time, the fight on the mountain was a mess, and then the fire was fierce. In this chaotic scene, Yang Yiyi also left some impressions on others that "this girl has fought side by side with me before", and no one would suspect her. On the contrary, if she ran away at this time, it would be a bit suspicious.

In order not to arouse suspicion, Li Chengxi did not hand the healing potion to Yang Yiyi, and let her receive treatment from the doctor of the Sixteenth Village first. Although the injury will recover slowly, it is safer.

Several elders from the big sects and Zhou Yuxuan were whispering in the front hall. I don’t know what they talked about, but no matter how I think about it, it is related to the death of the Sky-clearing Stone and Liu Tianquan.

As long as Yang Yiyi doesn’t reveal the truth at this time, this matter can basically come to an end.
