Chapter 242 Heading North to Yangzhou Prefecture



With the death of Xiao Xing and the masters he brought from Yangzhou Prefecture, Liu Xian's army had truly fallen apart. Qin Yuesheng mobilized the power of the Yellow Spring Eye and urged many dead and living dead to attack the remaining soldiers, which undoubtedly caused huge losses to the army in the dark night.

If Qin Yuesheng had not brought the Demonic Evil Blade with him this time, relying on the Demonic Evil Blade's infectious ability, I'm afraid that the number of deaths would have been even greater.

In the darkness, there were inevitable falls and tramplings, resulting in heavy casualties. In this situation, Qin Yuesheng did not need to make any more finishing moves. He ran back to the original place and dismembered the body of Yao Shuanggou. With seven or eight internal force pills, Qin Yuesheng quickly escaped into the darkness.

The next day, all the people in Qingyang City were nervous. They all hid in their homes and dared not go out. The streets were unusually quiet and empty.

On the city wall, Xun Sheng and his officials stood by the wall. The soldiers in the city had also made preparations long ago. Each of them stood at their respective posts with weapons in hand, their faces solemn, not daring to slack off.

Looking at the official road to the north, Xun Sheng kept rubbing the jade pendant on his waist with his hands. After a while, the jade pendant became wet and full of sweat from his hands, which showed how nervous he was at the moment.

"Sir, why don't you sit down and rest first. Liu Xian's army may not arrive so early." Xu Jin said while standing beside him.

"Didn't they say they would arrive this morning? How come it's already this hour and I haven't even seen a trace of the army?" Xun Sheng rubbed his eyes. "Have the spies been sent out to gather intelligence?"

Xu Jin nodded and said, "I've sent them out. I believe they'll be back soon with news."

Qin Yuesheng was lying on a bamboo chair in the pavilion beside the pond, looking at the blue booklet he had collected from Duan Huaheng with great comfort.

Ah Hu lay in front of Qin Yuesheng, allowing Qin Yuesheng to put his legs on his back, using it as a soft footrest.

"Young Master, the Master and the Madam are calling you over. They said that once the army enters the city, they want you to take some of the family property and leave Qingyang City alone. After a while, when the situation in the city stabilizes, they will call you back." An aunt who had been serving Duan Hongjin for many years ran over and said to Qin Yuesheng anxiously.

Qin Yuesheng was surprised. He didn't expect that his parents would let him leave alone at this critical moment.

If he did not have the strength and could not eliminate the threat posed by Liu Xian's army, I am afraid that this decision would have to be made now.

But Liu Xian's army had already fled or died last night, even the main general was dead, so how could they care about attacking Qingyang City?

Qin Yuesheng said calmly: "It's okay, aunt, go back and tell my parents that I won't abandon them to live alone."

"But Master..."

"Stop talking and go back." Qin Yuesheng waved his hand with a very firm tone.

He did not tell anyone about how he single-handedly defeated Liu Xian's army. This kind of thing was not suitable to be publicized to avoid causing trouble.

Half an hour later.

Xun Sheng was standing on the city wall waiting, sweating profusely, even his back was covered in sweat, looking extremely embarrassed.

Two officers and soldiers stood behind him and kept waving fans, but the wind became hotter and hotter, and with a powerful enemy approaching, they felt irritated and angry.

At this moment, they suddenly saw a man and a horse coming at a speed of dust on the northern official road. When everyone looked carefully, they found that it was the spy who had been sent out to gather intelligence before.

"Report!" The spy suddenly yanked the reins as he neared the Qingyang City gate, forcing his horse to a halt. He then dismounted and ran to the city wall, shouting to Xun Sheng on top, "Sir, great news! The northern troops are gone. I found many dead soldiers on the road. It seems they were attacked by some other force."

"What?!" Xun Sheng's face was shocked, and then he became overjoyed.

For Qingyang City, this is a great thing. The disaster that was supposed to happen has been avoided, and Qingyang City can maintain peace for a period of time.

"Hahaha, good news, indeed good news." Xun Sheng excitedly patted the stone fortress of the city wall and said, "Xu Dianshi, go inform the people in the city that Liu Xian's army will not attack. Tell everyone to relax."

"Yes." Xu Jin nodded and did as he was told.

Soon this matter spread throughout Qingyang City, and people who heard the good news couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As the mastermind behind the scenes, Qin Yuesheng was naturally indifferent and showed no reaction.

Now that the Qingyang City issue has been resolved, I believe Liu Xian will not dare to send troops rashly in the short term. He must find out who defeated his army. Otherwise, it would be bad if he encounters such a thing again. Even if Liu Xian has developed well, he cannot withstand such losses many times.

Once this matter was settled, Qin Yuesheng's plan to go to Yangzhou Prefecture to deal with Wang Tao was brought up again.

Without any delay, Qin Yuesheng took his three magical weapons and planned to leave the city and head to Yangzhou Prefecture.

Qin Yuesheng put all the dragon horns he got from his last trip and the tree fairy wood he decomposed from Patriarch Huai into the Mountain Ghost Pearl, waiting for the day when he could find a powerful weaponsmith and then give these two rare and precious materials to the other party to help him make weapons.

Unlike previous outings, Ah Hu has now grown stronger than an adult tiger. It is not good for him to stay in the Qin Mansion all day and be raised like a kitten. Over time, the ferocity of a tiger will inevitably be eroded. So this time Qin Yuesheng plans to take Ah Hu out with him.
