A day later, the ruler of the Flowing Sand Kingdom received the message from Gorz and immediately sent a message to Gu Xin and Lu Zheng.
On the day Gu Xin received the letter, they had just captured Yunhai City again, but suffered considerable losses. She and Cheng Huaijin planned to let the army rest for a few days. There were still two cities left to reach Yunhai's capital, and their current forces were insufficient, so they could not launch a rash attack.
"Elder sister, Wulang is dead." Gu Xin said to Gu Hui with a heavy heart after reading the letter.
"What? Didn't they just arrive in Goz not long ago? How could this be? Goro is in charge of weapons, how come..." Before Gu Hui could speak, Princess Jinghe stood up and asked.
"The people from Yunhai infiltrated the city lord's mansion and set fire to the warehouse. The entire city lord's mansion and the surrounding houses were destroyed, and the people of that city were also..." Gu Xin clenched the letter tightly.
No one expected that the people of Yunhai would do this, and no one expected that Ajir would not be arrogant this time and would know to infiltrate the local camp to gather information first.
With Agil's abilities, it would be very easy for her to enter a city on her own.
In the past, when Ajir wanted to attack a tribe or a small country, he always led a large army to win by force. Helian Yi did not expect Ajir to have this move. Peng Erlang and the others had never witnessed Ajir's personal abilities. They thought that the most powerful people in the world were probably the women of the Goddess Kingdom. They never thought that Ajir's abilities completely surpassed those of the women of the Goddess Kingdom.
Both sides deployed heavy troops to guard the area, and neither side expected that anyone in Yunhai would willingly and without hesitation face death.
This is the second time they've used Gu Nian's work. The first time they attacked Langge Kingdom, it was a victory without any suspense; they chased the people out of Langge Kingdom's territory.
"What did Peng Ze say?" Gu Hui asked in a deep voice.
“My brother-in-law has already brought troops from the Flowing Sands to support us. Agil has fled back to Cloud Sea. We and Yuan Yuan’s side need to take advantage of Agil’s absence from Cloud Sea to attack the royal city!” Gu Xin said, shaking her head. “That will be difficult. Agil returned to the royal city without any hesitation. She already knows what we have and that it was transported from the Great Zhou. She definitely won’t fight Goz again and will return to the Cloud Sea royal city without stopping.”
“Xin Xin, this Ajir…” Gu Hui frowned. She rarely heard Gu Xin wary of people she had already fought. Gu Xin was always very lucky. Even if someone was stronger than Gu Xin, they would lose to Gu Xin for various inexplicable reasons. This Ajir was a bit strange.
“Agil is very lucky. Last time I thought I could catch her, but I didn’t. And she’s in the west, and she had never lost before she met me,” Gu Xin said.
Cheng Huaijin nodded and added, "That's right. There are some amazing rumors about the Seventh Princess Yunhai. It's said that after she was born, Yunhai grew stronger day by day, and her abilities surpassed those of her brothers. Anyone she dislikes will never appear before her again. Even her brothers have suffered defeats, but she hasn't. It's as if even the heavens are on her side. General Zhou once said that she is immune to all poisons. As a child, she was bitten by some of the most venomous creatures in the desert, and since then, she is not afraid of any poisons."
Gu Hui looked at Gu Xin and felt that Cheng Huaijin was talking about Gu Xin after she turned ten. She remembered that after she turned ten, apart from the time she was tricked by Yin Yueli, Gu Xin really hadn't suffered any harm. Their family was getting better and better every day.
