"Let's retreat!"

The slender young man said softly.

"Hmm."

Jade Flute Fairy acknowledged, her beautiful eyes gazing at Chen Tang, speaking softly, "Young Hero, what swift sword skills."

She could tell Chen Tang's cultivation was not high, only about Seventh Grade.

But his sword skill was astonishingly fast!

If Chen Tang hadn't suddenly unleashed dozens of blades and restrained Meng Qi's flying sword, she wouldn't have been able to kill Meng Qi in such a short time.

To be precise, Meng Qi died because of the two's combined efforts.

During the fierce battle just now, with tense nerves and no room for distraction, he hadn't noticed Jade Flute Fairy's voice.

Now, Chen Tang removed the paper ball from his ear and heard Jade Flute Fairy speaking, her voice like heavenly music, carrying an ethereal rhythm, incredibly pleasant to hear.

It seemed he could listen to Jade Flute Fairy speak for a whole day without feeling annoyed.

Chen Tang was about to speak modestly when Jade Flute Fairy's gaze already shifted from him, looking at Dugu Qingcheng and the others, saying, "Thank you for your righteous assistance. Let's leave this place first."

Chen Tang and the others suddenly awoke to the seriousness of the trouble they'd caused and dared not stay; they hurried to escape.

Killing the Observatory Master of the Profound Celestial Temple was no small matter.

The one Chen Tang killed earlier was merely the Commandery's Observatory Master, a Qi Condensation Alchemist, not highly ranked among Mystic Masters.

But this Meng Qi was a Foundation Establishment Warlock!

Moreover, this place was Bingzhou City, where various forces gathered, hiding numerous experts unknown.

Before alarming others, they needed to leave Bingzhou City quickly!

Fortunately, all four of them were masked, preventing others from seeing their faces.

With the Observatory Master dead, the Profound Celestial Temple members were in shock, unable to process it yet.

But as Chen Tang and the group moved to escape, everyone suddenly awoke, shouting loudly.

"Don't let them escape!"

"Stop them!"

"Go inform the Governor of Bingzhou, Cyan Dragon Bureau..."

Many disciples of the Profound Celestial Temple began to take action, some Alchemists and Warlocks driving their flying swords, pursuing Chen Tang and the others.

Clang! Clang!

Jade Flute Fairy stayed behind, deploying her swordsmanship, transforming into a shower of sword rain, blocking the incoming flying swords entirely.

"This way!"

After escaping the Profound Celestial Temple, the slender young man said, leading Chen Tang and the group in a headlong rush towards the North Gate along a narrow alley.

"I've bribed a patrol; they won't appear at this spot on the city wall tonight."

The slender young man explained.

With Jade Flute Fairy covering their departure, Chen Tang and the group quickly reached the base of Bingzhou City's wall.

They couldn't help but glance back.

Jade Flute Fairy was still behind, doing her best to hold back the chasing Profound Celestial Temple disciples.

Meanwhile, Bingzhou City was gradually awakening from the commotion on this side.

The slender young man said, "Don't worry, with Jade Flute Fairy's skills, she'll certainly escape from the city; let's leave first."

Chen Tang and the group hesitated no longer, each employing their means.

Dugu Qingcheng pulled a hooked claw from his sleeve, shooting it towards the wall top.

Changsun Ming cleverly moved towards him.

The city wall of the Commandery was beyond his ability to scale, but Bingzhou City's wall, reaching about five zhang in height, made it all the more impossible for him.

Dugu Qingcheng and Changsun Ming climbed along the rope, heading up the city wall.

Yuwen Heigou, using his momentum, stepped onto the brick wall's crevices, leveraging his strength to dart towards the wall top.

Chen Tang continued employing his Gecko Wall-Climbing Skill.

Now he understood the words of the fat old man.

This Lightweight Skill proved to be very practical.

Among them, the easiest was the slender young man.

He simply leaped forward, as if stepping on starlight, soaring several zhang high!

As he was about to fall, the slender young man suddenly extended his arms, reaching towards the city wall.

With a clang!

The slender man's arm guard sprang circles of steel spikes, hooking onto the wall's crevices.

He leveraged again, leaping upwards, starlight flickering, already reaching the wall top!

The five showcased their skills, with the slender young man moving last but being the first to reach the wall top.

Following closely was Yuwen Heigou, then Chen Tang, finally Dugu Qingcheng and Changsun Ming.

The five stood atop the wall, gazing into the city.

Some patrolling guards in the city rapidly gathered towards this spot.

Even members of the Cyan Dragon Guard, clad in Cyan Dragon Copper Armor, were seen riding swiftly in pursuit!

Among them was one who stepped onto the shoulders and heads of patrolling guards, a Cyan Dragon Guard, swiftly approaching, his body technique astonishingly quick!

Yuwen Heigou frowned slightly, saying, "It's the Marshal of the Cyan Dragon Bureau, coming so quickly."

"Third Grade?"

Chen Tang asked.

In the Commandery's Cyan Dragon Bureau, the highest official was a Captain, a Fourth Grade Martial Artist.

And in Bingzhou City's Cyan Dragon Bureau, the highest official, the Marshal, should be above Captain.

Yuwen Heigou nodded.

Jade Flute Fairy, being Fourth Grade, seemed to sense danger, turned around, and headed back towards the wall top, her movement graceful, like a dragon in the moonlight, ethereal like a deity.

On the wall, other patrolling guards, startled by the commotion, rushed over from their positions.

Chen Tang and the group didn't linger on the wall top but hurriedly slipped down.

Chen Tang suddenly recalled something, blowing a whistle.

In no time, the sound of hooves echoed.

A Thunder Leopard shook the lump atop its head, snorting, and trotted over.

Just then, Jade Flute Fairy also appeared on the wall top, engaging the surrounding patrol guards, the sound of metal clashing echoing.

"I never expected the esteemed Jade Flute Fairy of Nanxia to grace us with your presence! Since you're here, why rush to leave? Stay a few days more, and let me, Shi Hongzhang, offer some hospitality on behalf of our host."

A voice rang out.

Before the words faded, the Marshal of the Cyan Dragon Bureau had already appeared on the wall top, bursting into battle with the Jade Flute Fairy!

Shi Hongzhang's words sounded pleasant, but his hand was ruthless, swinging the Cyan Dragon Sword, sword Qi raging, forcing Jade Flute Fairy to retreat repeatedly.

Woo woo!

The Jade Flute swung again, emitting an odd sound, affecting the inner Qi, disturbing the mind.

"Hmm?"

Shi Hongzhang's expression changed slightly, pausing his sword technique, and said solemnly, "Celestial Sound Valley's martial arts?"

Jade Flute Fairy, taking advantage of her opponent's distraction, swiftly retreated from the surrounding people, blocking a distant piercing flying sword, then leaped from the wall top!

"There's nowhere to run!"

Shi Hongzhang shouted, quickly reacting and leaping from the wall top in pursuit of Jade Flute Fairy!

Woo woo!

The flute sounded again.

Clang clang clang!

Shi Hongzhang suddenly struck the body of the Cyan Dragon Sword, emitting sword chimes, temporarily overpowering the flute sound, simultaneously catching up to Jade Flute Fairy, slashing with the sword, sword Qi bursting forth, piercing through the air!

Jade Flute Fairy was in mid-air, with no escape, forced to clash swords directly.

Bam!

As the swords collided, a clear sound rang out!

Jade Flute Fairy's delicate body trembled, her face paling, and the flute sound halted instantly, her whole being descending even faster.
