Chapter 98

It is all to confuse the public and deliberately frighten the soldiers, making them hesitant to act; in reality, all of this is an illusion created by magic.

Ji Wuye immediately solidified this thought.

"Do not be afraid, these are all illusions. Whoever can capture him, I will reward heavily!"

It is said that there must be brave men under heavy rewards. Even though the previous gale, which had arisen for no reason, had sent many soldiers flying, more men rushed forward.

Su Xuan looked at Ji Wuye with a helpless expression, his eyes playful.

The meaning was: Ji Wuye, aren't you annoying!

If you're afraid of death, just say so!

Is it necessary to send these ordinary soldiers to be slaughtered first?

Su Xuan had thought Ji Wuye would strike personally. If the other party were willing to strike, he wouldn't mind having a go with this strongest general of Han Guo in a hundred years to see if he lived up to his reputation.

But Ji Wuye's cowardice exceeded his expectations.

Another gust of wind arose, and all the soldiers rushing toward Su Xuan seemed to hit an invisible wall, unable to move an inch. They looked at Su Xuan right before their eyes, but this wind blocked their path forward.

Su Xuan walked to the side of the cage imprisoning Yan Lingji, placed his hand on the iron bars, and applied a little force; the "Great Strength" technique was activated.

These iron bars, forged from refined iron, were twisted apart by his bare hands.

"Come out!"

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji felt that she could perceive the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and her internal energy resumed circulation; Su Xuan had lifted the qi-sealing technique he had cast upon her.

Her figure flashed, and she instantly stepped out of the cage, standing side-by-side with Su Xuan—truly a handsome man and a beautiful woman.

"Although I don't know what happened in this short night, I seem to have become a wanted criminal just like you."

Depressed, of course, she was a bit depressed.

It was mainly because Ji Wuye had launched a sudden attack, giving him absolutely no time to react.

A faint smile curled at the corners of Yan Lingji's mouth, and she did not answer Su Xuan's remark.

After complaining, Su Xuan said to Yan Lingji: "Let's go!"

Yan Lingji's brows lifted slightly. After being freed, she had secretly pondered how Su Xuan intended to escape, but she hadn't expected his response to be so simple.

Within these simple words lay deep self-confidence.

The meaning was roughly that if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.

And as it turned out, that was indeed the case.

The gales that had been blocking the soldiers suddenly expanded in all directions, blowing many of them over; even more so, under Su Xuan's deliberate manipulation, they were directed toward Ji Wuye.

Ji Wuye naturally did not want to be hit by these useless men; he flashed away, hurriedly avoiding them, and at the same time retreated from the palace.

Although he possessed extremely powerful strength, in the end, Ji Wuye gave up on confronting Su Xuan head-on.

Su Xuan's strength was, after all, not to be underestimated.

With his noble status, engaging in close-quarters combat with Su Xuan was simply giving Su Xuan an opportunity.

Regardless, after this incident, Su Xuan had already become a wanted criminal.

No matter how strong his power or how mysterious his methods, under the full force of the nation, he would only face certain death.

As Ji Wuye retreated, the many soldiers surrounding the room were clearly unable to stop Su Xuan. Pushed by the gale, they could only helplessly watch as Su Xuan led Yan Lingji out of the room.

"Hold my hand tightly!"

Su Xuan said to Yan Lingji again.

Yan Lingji was stunned for a moment, but in the end, she grabbed Su Xuan's hand.

A gale arose, carrying Su Xuan and Yan Lingji's bodies, and they suddenly flew away from this place.
