After a while, Xie Qi heard 948 say, "Host, the male protagonist and his team succeeded."
After hearing this, Xie Qi couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth slightly, then took out a resurrection pill and swallowed it, then pressed the button in his hand.
The next second, flames shot up into the sky from Matsui Hisaichi's military camp, gunpowder depot, and the city gate, and huge explosions broke the tranquility of the night.
A war officially broke out. Some people in the city hid in their homes and trembled, while others rushed out to join the war.
As the explosion sounded, Xie Qi was seriously out of breath. The severe pain made Xie Qi's whole body curl up together, but because of the resurrection pill, Xie Qi was not in danger of death.
Soon, fires began to burn in several places in the Xie family's residence. It was obvious that these fires were deliberately set by the people who harbored resentment towards the Xie family.
They took advantage of the war and threw torches and other flammable objects at the Xie family to vent their long-accumulated dissatisfaction and anger.
The many servants of the Xie family were already frightened out of their wits after hearing the endless gunshots outside.
They no longer cared about the safety of their master or the honor of their family. They scrambled to pick up the valuables in their homes and fled in a hurry.

This sudden scene made them both terrified in an instant. The jewellery they were holding tightly in their hands fell to the ground due to excessive shock, scattering on the ground with a crisp sound.
At this moment, Xie Qi's face was as pale as paper, and he was leaning weakly on the recliner. He turned his head weakly, and his eyes happened to meet the two of them.
Xie Qi uttered a few words with difficulty: "Take the things and run..."
Although the two concubines had no idea what Young Master Xie meant by this, the current situation did not allow them to think too much.
So they quickly squatted down in a panic, picked up the jewelry scattered on the ground, and then ran towards the door like frightened birds without looking back.
Xie Qi just stared at their hurriedly departing figures, his eyes gradually losing focus. Then, he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of blood, as if all the strength in his body had gushed out along with it.
Finally he fainted completely, and the entire courtyard fell into silence again.
