Chapter 211 - Transfer
In the dark dungeon, no one could see Ling Xiao's face clearly. They could only hear his footsteps and words, as well as the blurry shadow on the wall that was illuminated by the candlelight.
However, because he couldn't see it clearly, it seemed even stranger and more terrifying.
The space within the dungeon was small, so after the ten corpses fell to the ground, there wasn't much room for them to rest. As a result, the ten heads could only roll around in a few places.
Finally, three human heads rolled over to the edge of the railings and landed on the ground with a loud thud.
"AHH!" After a short period of silence, several cries of alarm exploded out in an instant. It was obvious that the people who were imprisoned had clearly seen the true appearance of the three balls on the ground.
Ling Xiao walked to the front of the railings and looked down at them, then said indifferently: "They are all dead, what are you all shouting for."
"You, who are you? Don't kill us!" One of them, a young man who looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old, said with a trembling voice.
Relying on the weak light, Ling Xiao was barely able to see the appearance of this young man. He had some similarities with Ye Lvhongji, so he must be his heir.
"Your father asked me to save you. Those who don't want to die, please get up and follow me out." With that, Ling Xiao pulled with force, and all of the railings in front of him fell apart, leaving behind an entrance for people to enter.
Hearing Ling Xiao's words, they did not have any doubts, because the ten corpses on the ground proved Ling Xiao's position.
In the whole of Chidan's territory, other than the fact that the King Chu kidnapped them to threaten Ye Lvhongji, the rest of them didn't dare to have any other thoughts about them.
After they walked out of the dungeon, the four people who were imprisoned ran in front of Ling Xiao and respectfully greeted him with great respect.
"Thank you for saving my life!"
Seeing that, Ling Xiao nodded his head in satisfaction, then laughed: "En, not bad, you know gratitude, and did not order me around like a subordinate."
"I've never seen you in my father's place before, and your strength is extremely terrifying. You are even stronger than father. You are definitely not an ordinary person." That eighteen or nineteen year old youth cupped his fists and said.
After hearing these words, Ling Xiao turned his head to look at the blood flowing like rivers on the ground, and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration: "Not bad, not bad, inherited your father's intelligence and keen senses, and instantly guessed that I am not a simple person. It seems like coming here to save you is the right thing to do."
At this moment, a shrill and hurried voice sounded.
"Sect Master Ling! "You finally came out. I was so scared waiting here by myself!" With that, a fatty appeared in front of Ling Xiao. It was unknown if he tripped and actually rolled in front of everyone.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao sighed: "Seeing your sorry state, you are already dead, could it be that you will bring death back to life?"
How could the fatty listen? He directly grabbed onto Ling Xiao's leg and said while sobbing, "Aiyo, Sect Master Ling, you sure know how to joke around. Let alone killing, I don't even dare to behead anyone in my entire life. Not to mention so many corpses, how could I be set in my heart?"
"How dare you stir up trouble with the people, how dare you be disrespectful to the Sect Master Ling!" Hearing that, Ye Lvhongji's son's eyes lit up, he immediately took a step forward and shouted.
Hearing this, the fatty looked up and immediately stopped crying. He bowed to everyone with a serious expression, "Greetings Prince, Empress!"
"No worries, this battle is indeed scary to face people who have never been on the battlefield before. Furthermore, he has also contributed a lot to make these Soldiers lose their ability to fight." Ling Xiao waved his hand and said.
Right after this, someone vomited. Ling Xiao raised his head and saw that it was the empress and two other children who did not even look ten years old.
Once Ye Lvhongji's son saw this, he could no longer blame the fatty. "Since you've done well, you will naturally receive rewards when we return."
"Thank you, Sect Master Ling, for saving my life. Thank you, Prince for your rewards." The fatty's face was filled with joy upon hearing this.
"Alright, although the elites on this mountain have all died out, there are still a lot of unstable factors that have yet to return to the territory of the Hongji's leader. Fatty, how long will it take for you to send us the food here?" Ling Xiao asked.
"There are a lot of people in the camp and they need a lot of food. I don't know when they will send in the food, but according to the previous rules, not more than five days had passed, the fastest would be two days. Today, three days have passed since the last time." The fat guy thought for a while, then replied seriously.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao said without hesitation: "Let's not waste any time, we need to find a good horse quickly and go down the mountain. If we are unlucky, the food delivery team is already on the road, we might even be close to the foot of the mountain."
When everyone heard this, they immediately turned around to look for a horse.
Ling Xiao was the first to leave the mountain peak. He was going to the foot of the mountain to see if there were any food delivery teams approaching.
However, in the end, Ling Xiao did not discover anyone approaching this place, which meant that they were still safe.
Ling Xiao had the lightness exercise, so descending the mountain was very convenient and fast, but those people were different. Finding a horse took a bit of time and a lot of effort, but he had to find a horse, otherwise, it would be difficult for Ling Xiao to bring them to a safe place.
After everyone had arrived, they all rushed towards the small city that Ye Lvhongji and the others had agreed upon.
When dusk approached, they met a group of people, about 50 of them, the black mass of people caused everyone's hearts to tighten, only Ling Xiao remained calm.
When they got closer, they saw the flag that the convoy was waving, and heaved a sigh of relief, it was Ye Lvhongji's army.
The one leading the group was a deputy general. He did not know Ling Xiao, but it was impossible for him to not know the Prince and the Queen, so when he saw the Queen and the Prince, he immediately dismounted and paid respects to the two.
"Greetings to the Queen and Prince!"
"I wonder if there's anyone chasing after us from the Chu Country behind? Let's turn around and head back." Prince took a step forward and said.
"Yes!" Queen, Prince, please get on the horse! " The deputy general said loudly.
However, Prince looked at Ling Xiao and said, "Sect Master Ling, why don't you go first."
Hearing that, Ling Xiao laughed and shook his head: "No need, I have my own horse, and it is a good fast one, I am already used to riding it, but for you guys, the horses that the camp has brought are very ordinary, after travelling for a long time they will definitely not be able to bear it, so you should change them."
Hearing that, Prince nodded and helped the Queen change horses.
