Similarly, Agil saw it too.
She didn't know what it meant, but she knew it was released from within the Stone City. Since the Cloud Sea army didn't have this thing, it meant it was quicksand.
Ajier spat out a mouthful of blood, looking at Gu Xin in front of him. He really wanted to end her life with a single blow, but the more he wanted to end her life, the less he could do it.
Gu Xin didn't forget to taunt Agil: "Agil, this is our signal flare. We agreed that we would send the signal as soon as we breached the Great Stone City! Did you really think I came here to rescue my father? Of course not! You idiot!"
Agil felt a metallic taste in his throat and a headache.
Gu Xin continued, "You don't know, the person you captured wasn't my father at all. You don't know that the Southern Frontier Kingdom in the east has a kind of disguise technique that can completely conceal the disguise. The Langge Kingdom, which cooperated with you, used this method to send someone to act as an inside agent in the Great Zhou! Hahaha, Agil, you fool, you've fallen for our trap! Without your Giant Stone City, let's see how long it can withstand us! We've already found someone who looks like you, disguised her, and released her into the Cloud Sea army. Ha, do you think they'll dare to disregard your life or death?"
"Pfft!" Agil spat out a mouthful of blood.
Just then, Gu Xin found her weakness and thrust her sword at her.
Agil was stabbed, and blood spurted out, but unfortunately, the stab didn't hit her vital organs.
Gu Xin continued.
The pain cleared Agil's head, and she fought back with all her might.
Because Agil had been stabbed, she was now at a disadvantage.
Just when Gu Xin thought she could handle Ajir, several eagles suddenly circled in the sky and swooped down on her.
Agil seized the opportunity to turn and escape.
The eagles failed to harm Gu Xin, but Ajir found an opportunity to escape.
Cheng Huaijin shot down three eagles, then fired at Agil's back. Because it was dark, he wasn't sure if he hit Agil.
"Xin Xin, are you alright?" Cheng Huaijin ran to Gu Xin's side and asked.
"No, I just got pecked on the hand, but you shot it dead, brother!" Gu Xin rubbed her arm.
“Then you go back, I’ll go after Ajir.” Cheng Huaijin said, heading to find the horse.
"No. If we chase after them, we'll be in Yunhai's territory, and we don't have enough people." Gu Xin pulled Cheng Huaijin back and asked, "Are Father and Xue'er alright?"
Cheng Huaijin shook his head: "My father fell off his horse, hit his head, and passed out. Gu Yingxue took a knife for me, and I gave her all the life-saving medicine you gave me. I saw that her wound was very deep, and I don't know if she'll be alright."
Gu Xin pursed her lips, wanting to say something, but in the end she sighed and said nothing.
The brother and sister asked someone to stay and clean up the mess before returning home.
After Peng Ze fired the signal flare, Gu Hui led her troops to Jushicheng.
She led the 10,000-strong Zhou army as the vanguard, with the remaining Quicksand soldiers following behind.
It has to be said that Peng Ze and Gu Hui were a perfect match, wasting no time at all. After rushing into the Giant Stone City, the two began to fight.
During the assault on the city, many Great Zhou soldiers were wounded, but once inside, the Great Zhou army was far more efficient at killing enemies than the Quicksand army.
Meanwhile, to the west, separated by a city, Lu Zheng and Xue Qianyu also saw the signal flare launched by Peng Ze. After discussing it, the two decided to attack the city immediately. Although they did not know what had happened, this was definitely a good opportunity.
