"boom!"
Thick smoke billowed out, and the soldiers who turned to chase Agil were blown away one by one.
Agil turned his head in terror toward the source of the sound.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
"..."
"boom!"
There were nine sounds in total. None of the Cloud Sea soldiers who tried to escape with Agil survived, even though they were near the trap.
Gu Xin flew down from the city wall, landed steadily on her warhorse, and raised her sword high: "Brothers, chase them! Don't let a single one escape!"
"Kill! Leave no one alive!"
"Kill! Leave no one alive!"
The city gates swung open, and a deafening roar echoed through the air.
Helian Yi and Yan Zhao remained on the city wall. Only when they saw Gu Xin ride out of the ambush did they come to their senses.
Regardless of the outcome of today's battle, they knew they had to write back immediately to report that cooperating with the Shifting Sands Kingdom would be entirely beneficial to them.
After the two left, Gu Huijing, the princess, and He Sanniang went up to the city wall.
Princess Jinghe rubbed her wrists: "My hands and feet are itching, and the sword at my waist is itching even more!"
He San Niang put her arm around her shoulder and said, "Second Sister, we'll have plenty of opportunities to fight alongside Xin Xin. Did you see Prince Helian and Prince Yan? They left in a hurry; they definitely won't be staying long before they go back."
Gu Hui nodded: "That's right, we have plenty of opportunities."
Princess Jinghe tilted her head and asked Gu Hui, "Sister Hui, do you think Xin Xin can win over that Seventh Princess?"
Gu Hui frowned: "It seems a bit difficult. The Seventh Princess of Yunhai seems to be very alert, and her experience in battle is much richer than Xin Xin's."
He San Niang asked anxiously, "Will Xin Xin be in danger?"
Gu Hui shook her head: "That's unlikely. It's just that capturing the Seventh Princess of Yunhai will be difficult. Didn't A Yuan say that poison is useless against the Seventh Princess? That means we'll have to fight with force. The Seventh Princess's martial arts skills are no weaker than Xin Xin's."
Princess Jinghe breathed a sigh of relief: "Then it's alright. Isn't that brat Lu Zheng still in the Yunhai tribe? If he wants to kill someone, it's very easy for him."
Gu Hui and He San Niang wholeheartedly agreed.
Lu Zheng didn't take action before because he was afraid of being exposed.
Now that the war has already begun, we can just come back if we've been exposed.
They are very well prepared.
...
Gu Xin has only one goal today: to capture the Seven Princesses of the Cloud Sea.
This is a fierce general of the Yunhai tribe; even if we can't kill him, we must capture him alive.
So, she went after Agil with a clear goal in mind.
Agil also saw through Gu Xin's plan and quickly left the group.
They had already found out that this Sand Princess, like the Sand Prince of yesteryear, had been stranded in the east and was found. She believed that she had only been back for a short time and was definitely not as familiar with the environment and routes as she was.
When Gu Xin saw that Ajir had escaped, she turned around and ordered the people behind her not to let anyone escape back. They were told that once they reached Wanshagang, they could not continue the pursuit.
After giving her instructions, she chased after Agil.
Both warhorses were the best horses around here, and Gu Xin couldn't catch up, so she had to rely on others.
She drew an arrow from her quiver and shot it directly.
Agil's horse was shot and she was thrown off, but she was not flustered at all and managed to land steadily.
After landing, Agil took out his arrow and shot at Gu Xin's horse, but Gu Xin spurred her horse to avoid it.
Just kidding, the horse is injured, it will be so difficult for it to walk back.
As a result, the horse was eventually hit by the arrow.
