Chapter 1967 - 1971: Assault on the Execution Grounds
"Leng Yu?!"
Seeing the prisoner, Qin Tian’s heart skipped a beat!
Among the six prisoners, the one in the middle was precisely Leng Yu!
At this moment, Leng Yu’s eyes were dull and his gaze vacant, his entire being in a state of chaos, obviously subjected to inhuman torture!
Witnessing this, Qin Tian felt a pang of pain in his heart!
"Didn’t they say Leng Yu wasn’t captured? What’s going on?"
Qin Tian truly hadn’t seen Leng Yu’s name on the list from Gongsun San Niang.
Could it be that after that list, the Forbidden Army captured another batch of Dragon Clan spies?
Qin Tian dared not think more; he stopped and moved closer to the crowd.
Among hundreds of Forbidden Army soldiers, behind the swordsmen, was a stage. On the stage stood three Forbidden Army generals, one of them clad in silver armor – Deputy General Lin Shuang.
Qin Tian had met him before; he was as ruthless as a wolf, his sole job being to collaborate with the Soul Suppressing Hall in capturing Long Yin and investigating and annihilating undercover agents from the Dragon Clan, Barbarian Clan, and Demon Clan.
This man was relentless!
"These six individuals are undercover agents sent by the Dragon Clan in our Imperial City! Today, we will behead them in front of everyone!"
Lin Shuang spoke aloud to the crowd, "Our Tianyuan Dynasty and the Dragon Clan are arch-enemies. Hmph, they dare send spies to our Imperial City; truly overestimating themselves!"
"If there are any Dragon Clan spies present, haha, don’t think you’ll escape; we will definitely catch you next!"
"Dragon Clan undercover agents! Go back and tell your masters not to overestimate their capabilities!"
Lin Shuang’s arrogant words were clearly directed at the surrounding crowd.
Perhaps there were Dragon Clan spies among them, so his words felt like a declaration of war.
Qin Tian had stayed in the Ministry of War in the Imperial City before; he knew the Forbidden Army’s tactics.
Executing Dragon Clan spies so openly meant they had been exhausted of their use, and now they wanted to provoke the hidden spies into reckless actions, leading to another massive capture.
Lin Shuang most hoped for undercover Dragon Clan members to impulsively attempt a rescue.
No doubt, around the execution ground, besides thousands of Forbidden Army soldiers, were surely hidden numerous elite soldiers, daring to attempt rescue here in the Imperial City was akin to seeking one’s demise.
Qin Tian understood this well.
But the situation was, after Lin Shuang finished speaking, he had begun ordering the swordsmen to prepare to behead Leng Yu and the other six prisoners for public display!
Meaning, to save Leng Yu, it could only happen now – there was no other chance!
Exhale!
Qin Tian took a deep breath; at this point, even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, he had to dive in.
He could not witness Leng Yu beheaded right before his eyes!
Despite being disguised, Qin Tian for caution retrieved a mask from his storage bag.
It was a black dragon head-shaped mask, which Qin Tian had prepared during his undercover mission in the East Capital but hadn’t used yet. Now, with elites plentiful in the Imperial City and many having seen him, even disguised, he feared leaving clues, so Qin Tian donned the dragon head mask without hesitation!
"Dragon Clan villains, look closely; this is your fate, hahaha, behead them!"
With Lin Shuang’s arrogant order, as the swordsmen raised their Fine Steel blades, suddenly, a laser shot out from the crowd, a figure flashed by, directly darting onto the stage!
Boom!
During his rapid flight, Qin Tian had already punched the swordsman standing beside Leng Yu, charging directly towards him!
"Heh, indeed there’s a fish biting the bait, excellent!"
Seeing someone attempting rescue, Lin Shuang’s lips curled into a smile of his plot’s success.
His face darkened instantly, shouting, "Someone is attempting rescue, capture them! Try to take them alive!"
Their purpose in setting this trap was to lure out more Dragon Clan spies, capturing them alive to gather more information.
Qin Tian had taken the bait.
Qin Tian was aware of these tricks, but now, he was fearless!
Forbidden Army soldiers in the crowd began attacking Qin Tian.
Streams of True Qi and spears were hurled directly at Qin Tian!
Simultaneously, with Lin Shuang’s command, True Qi archers emerged from hiding, shooting True Qi arrows, piercing the sky, aimed at Qin Tian!
Arrows like rain!
The surrounding crowd, terrified, scattered and fled!
One moment of carelessness could turn anyone into a pincushion!
Bang!
Facing the approaching Forbidden Army soldiers, Qin Tian didn’t even glance, swinging a fist, instantly knocking dozens of soldiers away!
As countless True Qi arrows descended like torrential rain, approaching Qin Tian, they suddenly halted!
As if the air had momentarily frozen!
A True Qi Shield expanded around Qin Tian, the True Qi arrows striking it, falling to the ground!
Completely ineffective!
"Hmm?"
Seeing this, Lin Shuang was a bit dumbfounded, blinking in shock, exclaiming, "What is going on? This Dragon Clan spy is so formidable? Even True Qi arrows can’t harm him?!"
Dong!
Meanwhile, Qin Tian had landed in front of Leng Yu, his True Qi suddenly condensed, tearing apart the bindings on Leng Yu’s hands, freeing him instantly.
"Hiss!"
Up on the stage, Lin Shuang was utterly shocked witnessing this!
"Our True Qi Gold Rope has no effect before him?!"
Lin Yu swallowed hard, his expression turning solemn, promptly summoning a soldier, commanding, "Quick, call for the Golden Armor Guards! This person must be a Great Immortal Realm expert; to capture him alive, the Golden Armor Guards must step in!"
"Yes!"
The soldier hurried away, while Qin Tian, continuously throwing punches, moved True Qi like Kuang Feng, blasting the approaching Forbidden Army soldiers away!
In Qin Tian’s presence, the thousands of Forbidden Army soldiers were like ants!
One hand supporting Leng Yu, the other fending off the incoming True Qi Arrow Rain, the duo slowly descended the stage!
In the blink of an eye, Qin Tian had already slain over seven hundred Forbidden Army soldiers!
Seeing Qin Tian and Leng Yu step off the stage, those Forbidden Army soldiers retreated in terror, struck by fear, their bodies overwhelmed!
Not wanting to linger in battle, Qin Tian hoisted Leng Yu onto his back, leaping to escape.
Boom!
A stream of True Qi blocked Qin Tian’s path, followed by several sword strikes shooting forth!
Beside, seeing Qin Tian trying to leave, Lin Shuang finally acted!
"Where do you think you’re going? Surrender now!"
