Chapter 3793: Fleeing in Disarray

Wang Tianqi wanted to act, but he saw too many people charging past. Of the remaining five thousand or more, over three thousand had left his side's group, and among them there were still many expert guards.

If he acted now and they fought, he feared even more people around him would take advantage of the chaos to flee.

At the moment the demon beast passage was broken open, Wang Tianqi's fortune weakened further; now not even a trace of golden light could be seen on him.

So he could only resentfully say: "Then you all go die, we're leaving!"

Speaking, he led the way onto the warship. Some of the guards were timid, lacking initiative and unwilling to flee, so they silently followed him.

In the end, over one thousand five hundred people boarded the warship. Some guards simply fled, neither fighting the demons nor boarding the warship.

At this point, no one tried to stop them. Wang Tianqi couldn't be bothered to act against them; he directly ordered the warship to set sail, leaving the royal city.

And at the very moment Wang Tianqi's warship left the royal city, his fortune completely vanished. This star system, this dynasty, now had nothing to do with him.

He had thought he would leave smoothly, but suddenly there were two booming explosions. The warship shuddered, and its defense array was instantly shattered.

"Someone is attacking the warship!" the guards reported in a panic.

"Who dares to intercept this king's warship!"

Wang Tianqi had not yet come to his senses from his role change.

But the skeleton puppets attacking the warship outside kept going, their spears directly blasting the warship, blasting two large holes in it.

"After causing havoc, you want to run? Do you not have to repay your debts?"

Guǐ Sòu silently watched from afar as the skeleton puppets attacked the warship.

Ye Liuyun was in the eastern region, already too late to arrive; only Guǐ Sòu could intercept Wang Tianqi. Guǐ Sòu also estimated that with just those two skeleton soldiers he probably couldn't stop Wang Tianqi, but at least he wouldn't let him escape in glory with so many people.

Those following Wang Tianqi originally lacked confidence; now after another ambush, even fewer would want to keep following him.

After the warship was blasted open, one skeleton soldier immediately charged inside, while the other stood guard outside, waiting for Wang Tianqi to show his head.

Wang Tianqi could only bring some guard experts and attendants to flee the warship. The skeleton puppet waiting outside then rushed at Wang Tianqi again.

"Stop him!"

Wang Tianqi again pushed the guards out to their deaths.

Some reacted quickly, immediately ignoring Wang Tianqi and turning to run. The puppets of the Hédào realm were no match for them; charging up would only be suicide.

And Wang Tianqi likewise took advantage of someone briefly blocking the skeleton soldier to make his escape.

"Boom!" another skeleton puppet rushed out from inside the warship, straight for Wang Tianqi.

The purpose of these two skeleton puppets was clear: both headed straight for Wang Tianqi; the other guards also saw this, and as long as they didn't try to block those two, their lives would be safe.

As for the fleeing Wang Tianqi, let him run; following him would bring pursuit, so it's better to scatter and flee. Thus the remaining guards immediately disembarked from the warship and scattered in all directions.

Wang Tianqi still had a few guards beside him who had signed master-servant contracts; they couldn't run. Now they could only grit their teeth, being ordered by Wang Tianqi to block the skeleton puppets.

"I'll kill you sooner or later!"

Guǐ Sòu also saw that the distance between the skeleton puppets and Wang Tianqi was growing; they probably couldn't stop him.

Wang Tianqi likewise waited until the distance was great, then launched another small flying boat, taking fewer than ten attendants aboard, and fled in disarray. As for the guards who went to intercept the puppets, he didn't care about them.

The skeleton puppets couldn't catch him; they could only turn back and slaughter those guards before Guǐ Sòu recalled them.

Then he took out a transmission talisman and notified Ye Liuyun: "Wang Tianqi has fled!"

"He's lucky!"

"I'll immediately lead the skeleton soldiers into the demon beast passage and meet you at the palace passage!"

Ye Liuyun's whip is too short; he can only consider this for later. Now that Wang Tianqi has fled, he must take on the responsibility of fighting the demons.

He directly entered the eastern region's demon beast passage, released three thousand skeleton puppets, and marched toward the central dynasty's passage.

At the same time, Heishan also ordered the Tiger-headed Beast King to lead twenty thousand demon race troops to support Ye Liuyun.

In the demon beast world, demon beasts and demon persons were concentrated at the dynasty's passage; Ye Liuyun's sudden troop deployment caught them off guard.

Thanks also to the remaining dynasty guards' desperate resistance, when Ye Liuyun arrived, they prevented more demon beasts and demon persons from bursting out, thus avoiding major damage to the royal city.

Upon arrival, Ye Liuyun immediately sent out Zhan Kong and the painter, assigning a squad of skeleton soldiers to protect them, so they could cut off all passages to other regions, sealing the passage mouths completely, leaving only this gap in the royal city.

He also had Yu Xiaofeng lead the great army across various cities, rushing straight to the central royal city, opening all teleportation arrays.

Martial cultivators gathered from all places; those willing to fight the demons would register at the passage here in the royal city, while those unwilling would disband on the spot.

He handed over the entire dynasty's administration to Guǐ Sòu, and military authority to Yu Xiaofeng. The western, southern, and northern regions were still managed by Chen Haisheng, Heishan, and Wang Wenli; for the eastern region he arranged for Guǐ Sòu to support Shào Dōnglái into power.

He also notified Shào Dōnglái's five people to return to the eastern region to take over the Martial Cultivator Alliance and military authority. Shào Dōnglái came from a great clan and was a native of the eastern region, making him more acceptable to the locals.

Ye Liuyun himself also retreated from the passage, leaving a clone puppet to lead the skeleton soldiers in fighting the demons.

Looking at the ruined palace before him, Ye Liuyun felt a myriad of emotions.

"What a fine palace, reduced to this—this Wang Tianqi really harms others without benefiting himself!"

However, Ye Liuyun also considered that he had established a foothold in this world; thereafter his Death Legion and friends from the Mortal Realm would also have a secure base.

Although much lies in ruins before him, the future is promising.

Ye Liuyun brimmed with energy, but some detailed work he himself would certainly not do; he merely waited for Yu Xiaofeng to arrive, then would introduce Guǐ Sòu to Yu Xiaofeng.

Then he simply said a few words, assigning the tasks.

"Guǐ Sòu handles dynasty administration and reconstruction; Xiaofeng handles organizing the army."

Yu Xiaofeng also knew his nature; he would absolutely not bother with such trivial matters. Yu Xiaofeng himself likewise did not vie for this authority; he only cared about war, and immediately began tallying military authority from all places.

Guǐ Sòu also began arranging to open the teleportation arrays, then gathering all available personnel. He had the Li family reopen the Chamber of Commerce, gradually restoring order in the royal city.
