The door slammed shut with a loud thud, and all the guards heard it clearly.
Seeing the tightly closed door, the guards knew they were being rejected, so they howled even louder, as if they were about to shake the heavens and the earth.
Whether the group that escaped was disturbed or not is another matter, but the group of whales that attacked were definitely the victims.
Hearing the piercing, distorted sound, the whales felt their heads throbbing uncontrollably.
Finally, one of the whales couldn't take it anymore.
Then it erupted, exerting all its strength, and managed to break free of its restraints. The ropes binding it were snapped into small pieces.
This whale is cunning; it knows it's at a disadvantage to fight alone.
The first thing it did after breaking free of its confinement was not to seek revenge on the Yun family guards, nor to escape.
Instead, taking advantage of the moment before the guards could react, it swiftly released the two whales closest to it from their restraints.
The two whales followed suit, and in the blink of an eye, they each freed their companions from their restraints.
By the time the Yun family guards reacted, most of the whale's body had already been removed, and the remaining small part, although not yet removed, was almost done.
The Yun family guards tried to stop them, but the whales had already coordinated their efforts, with some blocking people and others quickly untying them.
Soon, all the whales regained their freedom. Looking at the group of humans who had suddenly come to the beach and abducted them, their eyes burned with fury.
The next moment, without any surprise, the two sides clashed.
Previously, when the Yun family guards kidnapped the whales, they either launched surprise attacks or faced multiple opponents against one, which is why they managed to capture so many whales.
Now it's one-on-one, and the whales are at the peak of their anger because of this encounter, making their combat power terrifying.
Before long, these whales successfully turned the tables and began chasing and beating the Yun family guards, specifically targeting conspicuous spots like their faces, leaving the guards crying and screaming in pain.
As for why the whale didn't go all out to kill, well, there were dragons around!
The whale that initially broke free actually intended to kill the Yun family guards.
But before its murderous intent could even take hold, it felt a terrifying pressure descend upon it, accompanied by a cold voice: "No killing allowed."
All the whales heard those four words clearly. As the leader of the sea beasts, the dragons naturally dared not disobey.
Fortunately, the leader only said not to kill people, but did not say not to let them beat people.
The whales exchanged glances and immediately understood what was going on. They seized the guards who had captured them and began to beat them severely.
After beating them for the better part of an hour, making sure all the guards were bruised and battered, the whales finally bowed to the dragons.
After receiving Longyin's permission, they flew away as fast as they could, disappearing from everyone's sight in an instant.
Only after no whales could be seen did the guards lying on the ground take out their pills and swallow them.
The medicine worked very quickly; in just a few dozen breaths, they had recovered completely.
They stopped howling and very consciously took over the positions of the dragons, guarding the perimeter of the courtyard and beginning their duties.
It's unclear whether Yunyi was secretly watching from inside, but after a short while, the soundproofing was removed, the door opened from the inside, and the person came out.
After emerging, Yun glanced at the guards and then flew towards the flying ship where the dragon clan was located.
After respectfully handing over the agreed-upon payment, it was time to leave.
Because Yun Yi offered a slightly higher reward than agreed upon, Long Yin reciprocated by informing Yun Yi about the situation of the little mice keeping watch around them, and even adding a protective talisman as a bonus.
He waved goodbye to Yun Yan, who was leaning against the door frame, and the two flying boats immediately started up and sped away like arrows.
Yun Yi was a very efficient person. After watching the flying boat leave, he immediately launched a counterattack based on the intelligence he had obtained.
Soon, the main characters who were secretly watching fell down without a sound.
After dealing with the last person, he didn't waste any time and led his guards to set up a formation on the spot.
A quarter of an hour later, as the patterns flickered on and off, there was no one left.
When the Four Directions Palace and other surveillance forces sensed something was wrong and sent people back, the place was already deserted.
It took the array master half a day to finally figure out the general direction of their departure by relying on the afterglow of the array.
They rushed to give chase, only to find that the person had already left.
Then it's a process of repositioning, searching, and gradually widening the distance between us.
Meanwhile, after dozens of days of travel, Shushu and his companions finally arrived at Liudan City at the foot of Liuyue Sect Mountain, which was also the last intermediate stop on their journey.
With Xu Ruoyun, Fu Ziang, and the three rabbits leading the way, the group took the fast track and entered the city very smoothly.
Whether it's Xu Ruoyun, Tutu, or Fu Ziang, all three of them are very talkative. From outside the city, these three have been chattering away, introducing Lu Li and Shushu's family.
From their words, Shushu also learned the origin of Liudan City.
Actually, it's quite simple. After Liu Yuzhong established his sect here, he wanted to provide his disciples with a place for trading and selling things, as well as a window to the outside world, and to accommodate certain forces that he didn't want to bring into the sect but sometimes had to deal with.
So, they built a city on this barren land at the foot of the sect's mountain, and incidentally made the city the first checkpoint of the Liuyue Sect.
Furthermore, since the Liuyue Sect is mostly composed of beastmen, who are used to being free and undisciplined, when they were building their cities, they built them on a slightly larger scale, directly following the proportions of Ganquan City.
Over the years, Liudan City has been managed by them in a very respectable manner, and it has become one of the largest cities in the Xingxiang Mountains area.
Of course, the position of city lord has always been firmly held by the Liuyue Sect. All city lords have been appointed by the Liuyue Sect and will never fall into the hands of others.
Even half of the shops in the city are opened by disciples of the Liuyue Sect and their relatives, or by small forces under the Liuyue Sect.
The remaining half will be opened to outside forces in exchange for rental fees.
Among them, the renowned Cloud Auction House of Daxu Realm, the six major forces of the Western Continent, as well as the Dan Alliance and the Zhen Alliance, all have opened shops and purchased properties in the city.
The beastmen of the Northern Continent were no exception; almost all of them had outposts and shops in Liudan City.
After all, most of the members of the Liuyue Sect are beastmen, which is not a secret in the Daxu Realm. Liudan City is also a rare large city in the Daxu Realm where humans and beastmen live in harmony.
Walking on the streets of Liudan City, one could still see quite a few people who maintained their half-beast form, a sight completely unseen in other cities, leaving Shushu speechless with astonishment.
However, there was plenty of time to see what was going on, so the group didn't linger and headed straight for the sect behind them.
