Super Gene Hunting Ground

After this battle, Yang Xiao’s team was left with less than three thousand people. Gong Yu and Dai Peng led the uninjured two thousand-plus people in a furious chase.

Zuo Yun and Cai Yang had over two thousand people remaining, and the people from Han Capital had over three thousand left. Due to the City King of Han Capital, Lu Sun being killed, morale was completely gone, and everyone began to flee en masse.

This gave Gong Yu and the others a significant advantage in their pursuit.

Due to Yang Xiao’s sudden return and his killing of Lu Sun, Lu Sun’s entire offensive plan was disrupted. Now, as everyone was busy fleeing for their lives, no one wanted to stay behind to organize a counterattack, and the fleeing crowd stretched long. The people at the front had already run about a kilometer away while those in the back had just started fleeing.

Gong Yu, leading more than two thousand people, was overwhelmingly pushing forward.

The nearest Transmission Array to the Shenlongjia base was the Fengyang Town base, twenty kilometers away.

Zuo Yun and Cai Yang desperately ran towards Fengyang Town with their people, hoping to quickly return to Xiangfan City through the Transmission Array, bringing along the remaining over two thousand guards, plus thousands inside the city, and several thousands from about a dozen nearby bases.

This combined force was still capable of taking action.

Monk Ben Yin found Yang Xiao:

”Yang Xiao, you’re really lucky, I can’t believe you’re actually alive.”

Yang Xiao laughed heartily and replied:

”Did you wish for my death?”

”Amitabha! As a monk, compassion is in my heart, how could I wish for your death? But how did you escape from the Giant Dragon—”

”Shush!”

Ben Yin had just started speaking when Yang Xiao stopped him.

Yang Xiao signaled with his eyes for Ben Yin to not blurt out anything recklessly.

Ben Yin nodded. About the Giant Dragon of Shenlongjia, Monk Ben Yin had only spoken to Lan Xin and Gong Yu.

In the distance, Lan Xin and Xiao Lan’s group gathered, and Lan Xin introduced her sister Long Xiang to everyone.

A group of girls surrounded Long Xiang, giggling incessantly. Long Xiang, cute and sweet-looking, was beloved by all who admired her majestic use of the Dragon Whip and the impressive Cultivation Technique of soaring the clouds.

Ben Yin said:

”Yang Xiao, although City King Lu Sun of Han Capital is dead, Zuo Yun and Cai Yang, the capable subordinates of former City King Xue Dong of Xiangfan, have fled. It was Zuo Yun who conspired with Lu Sun leading to the easy seizure of Xiangfan City by Lu Sun, putting us in a passive position.

Now that Lu Sun is dead, Zuo Yun and Cai Yang may attempt to establish themselves as kings upon returning to Xiangfan City. Gong Yu and Dai Peng have gone after them, what do you think?”

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiao instantly understood and said:

”How can we miss such an opportunity? If we let the tiger return to the mountain, regaining Xiangfan City later will require much effort. Miyamoto, brother, you take a few hundred injured people and rest here. Lan Xin and I will immediately head to Fengyang Town.

I must reach Fengyang Town’s Transmission Array before Zuo Yun and Cai Yang, take control of it, kill these two right there, and then subdue their guards, and thereby seize Xiangfan City.”

”Indeed, that’s a sound plan, you should hurry then, I’ll handle things here.”

Ben Yin said.

Yang Xiao walked over to Lan Xin and said:

”We must rush to Fengyang Town immediately and not let them escape. Flying People Team, take off immediately; you and I will ride the Giant Eagle. Oh and, Xiangxiang, come and lend your brother a hand.”

Even with just a Dragon Whip, Long Xiang’s attack power was above Yang Xiao’s, so naturally, he invited Long Xiang to join.

Long Xiang, still a child, thought it was fun and laughed:

”Sure, if sister goes, I’ll go too.”

Lan Xin smiled and leaped onto the Giant Eagle with Yang Xiao, soaring into the sky. Long Xiang hurriedly followed in a leap, with over two hundred of the Flying People Team immediately transforming into bird-like forms and trailing behind them.

Fengyang Town was about twenty kilometers away from the Shenlongjia stronghold. Zuo Yun and Cai Yang and others were running on the ground, unable to reach there instantly, which gave Yang Xiao time to chase.

The Giant Eagle, carrying Yang Xiao and Lan Xin, flew swiftly. Long Xiang, stepping on auspicious clouds, followed by their side with two hundred flying people behind.

Yang Xiao quickly caught up with Gong Yu and Dai Peng’s group.

Looking up, Gong Yu and the others saw Yang Xiao riding the Giant Eagle flying over their heads and knew he had rushed to Fengyang Town, which eased their minds considerably.

With Yang Xiao personally leading the team, everyone naturally had more confidence in successfully blocking Zuo Yun and Cai Yang.

Gong Yu shouted aloud:

”Brothers, our leader Yang Xiao has already run ahead of us. We can’t fall behind either. Come on, after we kill Zuo Yun and Cai Yang, Xiangfan City will be ours.”

Everyone roared enthusiastically, their momentum boiling over, as they pushed their speeds to the limit.

Yang Xiao ran for more than ten kilometers and finally saw Zuo Yun and others’ team madly sprinting on the ground.

Above Zuo Yun and the others were nearly three hundred members of the Flying People Team.

From the original over a thousand flying people, only five to six hundred remained. Zuo Yun sent half of them to Fengyang Town in advance to defend the Transmission Array, while the other half accompanied the flight, providing aerial defense.

Seeing that he was catching up with Zuo Yun and the others, Yang Xiao said to Long Xiang:

”Let’s not bother with the ground troops for now, directly pursue and disrupt their aerial flying people.”

Long Xiang nodded, holding the silver Dragon Whip, and flew forward to pursue.

Yang Xiao riding the Giant Eagle quickly caught up and first unleashed the Five Finger Sky Explosion technique,

with a loud boom, a huge claw crushed about ten flying people on the spot.

Yang Xiao’s move was terrifying. The flying people, already skittish, were all fleeing for their lives.

These flying people naturally wouldn’t stay behind to sacrifice themselves to protect Zuo Yun and others, especially since most of them were brought over by Lu Sun from Han Capital.

Now in an awkward situation, with Lu Sun killed and having lost their allegiance, being in the foreign land of Xiangfan, each thought about rushing back to Han Capital to reconsider, they wouldn’t possibly stay in Xiangfan under Zuo Yun’s command.

So, seeing Yang Xiao’s pursuit, the flying people in the air did not organize a counterattack but instead accelerated their escape.

Annoyed, Zuo Yun cursed from the ground:

”Counterattack, counterattack, you fools, are a few hundred of you afraid of them?”

The few leaders of the Flying People Team just had the thought of organizing a counterattack and lingered for a moment in the air, but were quickly caught up by Long Xiang. With a crack of her whip, she immediately killed several people.

Seeing how formidable Long Xiang was, the fledgling will to resist in the others immediately dissipated, and they desperately flapped their wings to fly away.

Yang Xiao took out the Golden Eagle Bow and shot at the flying people behind, dozens of them were hit by arrows and fell down.

Moments later, Yang Xiao’s Flying People Team caught up and immediately took control of the aerial situation.

Knowing the situation was beyond salvage, Zuo Yun and Cai Yang gritted their teeth, fully exerting their cultivation, pushed their speed to the limit, leaving the team behind, and ran off alone.
