The general's sinister words rang in the ears of all the soldiers, causing them to subconsciously recall the punishment that their lord had given to those who failed the mission. All of them could not help but shiver.
However, the general's words also gave them a glimmer of hope.
As long as they could catch Yan Lingji and Su Hao within the time given by the general, they would not only not make any mistakes, but also complete the mission perfectly, and they would be rewarded by the general.
At the thought of this, the soldiers struggled to pull themselves together.
Although they knew that it would be very difficult to capture Su Hao and Yan Lingji again in Xin Zheng City, they still called their friends to come and help.
The city guards who heard the news and rushed over were the first to respond. Together with these soldiers, they chased after Su Hao and Yan Lingji.
……………………………
This was the first time Su Hao used his lightness skill to fly in the air. Wandering in the moonlight made Su Hao feel a little good. His childhood martial arts dream was fulfilled at this time, which made Su Hao feel very emotional.
"Although your qinggong is very good, I think those soldiers should be looking for us all over the city. Are you sure you want to keep flying like this?”
The words of the beauty in his arms interrupted Su Hao's imagination. The woman's voice was very pleasant. Su Hao looked down when he heard her.
Indeed, as Yan Lingji had said, there were indeed many soldiers walking around the city with torches in their hands. It seemed that they were looking for them.
Su Hao hurriedly descended from the sky and hid in an alley. He looked at Yan Lingji and said,""Do you have any ideas?"
"Of course there is!"
Yan Lingji looked at Su Hao with her crystal clear eyes and said,""But before that, shouldn't you put me down from your arms?”
Hearing this, Su Hao finally reacted. Reluctantly, he put Yan Lingji down from his arms and said,""I'm sorry. It was an emergency just now, so I could only do this!”
Yan Lingji slowly landed on the ground. When she felt the chill in her body disappear, she smiled playfully,""If it weren't for the fact that your hands weren't a little unruly when you hugged me just now, I might have believed you!”
Su Hao's face had a trace of awkwardness as he smiled and said,""Um…I said that I accidentally touched it. You won't blame me, right?”
The smile on Yan Lingji's face became more and more playful,""Of course not. After all, you're my savior. Why would I blame you?”
Perhaps for some other reason, she didn't tell Su Hao that she was captured by the soldiers because of him.
"That's good!"
Su Hao pretended to let out a sigh of relief, which made the beauty in front of him smile. In fact, he knew that the power in Yan Lingji's body was still sealed, so he wasn't worried that she would turn against him.
However, it had to be said that Su Hao enjoyed joking with a peerless beauty under such circumstances.
Su Hao looked at the woman in front of him. The beauty under the moon was extremely beautiful, making him truly realize that he had indeed come to another world."Speaking of which, how should we escape from the pursuit of those soldiers?”
Although the soldiers were weak and Su Hao could easily deal with them, Su Hao was unfamiliar with the place and was in their territory. He didn't want to be surrounded by soldiers as soon as he came to this world.
Yan Lingji gently lifted her hair with her right hand and tucked it behind her ear, then said to Su Hao,""I heard from those soldiers that they captured me to bring me back to Xin Zheng…to offer me to a noble here. So this should be Xin Zheng.”
"In this place, the best way to hide from the soldiers is to find a noble's residence and sneak in. The soldiers don't dare to search the noble's residence, so they naturally can't find us.”
"That's right. This is indeed a good idea.”
Su Hao nodded, then asked Yan Lingji,""Then do you know where the noble houses in Xin Zheng City are concentrated?”
Su Hao was a university student in the History Department. Naturally, he knew that in ancient cities, civilians and nobles lived in two completely different places. You wouldn't be able to find any nobles in the place where civilians lived.
"This…"
Yan Lingji's expression froze when she heard that. Her delicate face was a little embarrassed. She frowned and said softly,"I've almost never been here before, so how could I possibly know where the residences of those high-ranking officials and nobles are?”
When she said this, even Yan Lingji, who didn't care about what others thought, couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
Furthermore, with their current identity and attire, coupled with the fact that there were soldiers searching for them all over Xin Zheng City tonight, they could not rashly ask people to inquire about the residences of those high-ranking officials and nobles out of caution.
"It seems that your method is not reliable!”
Su Hao shrugged at Yan Lingji. He looked at her with a playful look in his eyes, and his words made her even more annoyed.
"Then do you have any good ideas?"
Yan Lingji bit her lips and rolled her eyes at him. She seemed to blame him for saying it out loud and making her feel embarrassed.
Su Hao didn't answer her immediately. Instead, he looked around. They were now in a somewhat dirty alley. After passing through the alley, there was a street. It was impossible for this to be the place where those dignitaries lived.
However, Su Hao seemed to have thought of something. He gave Yan Lingji a mysterious smile and said,""Since this is Xin Zheng, I have a better place to go.”
Yan Lingji tilted her head, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said in a confused tone,""Where is it?"
"Violet Orchid Pavilion is a very famous place in Xin Zheng City. It's also a very interesting place!”
Su Hao said to Yan Lingji in a strange way. He lowered his head and looked at his jeans and T-shirt. While thinking that he should change his clothes, he also felt lucky in his heart. Luckily, it was afternoon when he went back to his dorm to rest.
Because he still had to eat at night, he didn't take off his clothes before going to bed. Otherwise, it would be really awkward to transmigrate in a pair of big pants.
Su Hao thought about it in boredom as he walked out of the alley.
He had just arrived in this world. Although he had saved Yan Lingji on the way, he still didn't know what time it was.
Going to the Purple Orchid Pavilion would not only help him and Yan Lingji avoid the search of the soldiers, but also help them find out the exact time here, especially the movements of Han Fei, Purple Girl, and the others.
According to Su Hao's plan, if he didn't save Yan Lingji, she would be locked in a crystal pool in a cave, and someone would put drugs into it regularly to weaken her power step by step, so that the noble could have her safely.
However, Yan Lingji was a Xiantian expert after all, and using medicine to reduce her power was not something that could be done overnight.
Su Hao also didn't know how much of her power had been reduced when Wushuang Gui went to save her, and how much time had been spent.
Therefore, he was not sure what stage Xinzheng City was in now, or whether Han Fei had returned to Xinzheng from the Small Saint Manor.
This was what Su Hao wanted to know now.
Su Hao was still calculating the future development of many matters in Xin Zheng City based on the time Yan Lingji was captured.
However, he never expected that Yan Lingji would be captured by the soldiers today because of him.
If it weren't for him, Yan Lingji would have been able to escape from the encirclement of the soldiers with her lightness skill.
It would probably be a long time before she was captured by the soldiers and locked up in the cave.
