Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 444 Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west
It’s not that Ji Lin is too sanctimonious, but since he has given others hope of life, he must be responsible. Otherwise, he should not have saved the other person in the first place. Since he has saved him, he must bring Feng Ling out of Risheng City alive.

It was not because of anything else, it was simply because Ji Lin thought that giving up on Feng Ling like this would be too low, not cool at all, and not what he wanted.

Without the threat of high-altitude soul guides, it would be much easier for Ji Lin to enter the city than before.

As soon as he flew into Risheng City from a high altitude, Ji Lin clearly saw that in the north, dark blue light shadows were rapidly descending from the sky near the North City. Although the total number of these dark blue light shadows was only a few hundred, they gave Ji Lin a sense of oppression.

Seeing these dark blue lights and shadows, Ji Lin showed curiosity. Although he had seen a glimpse of the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Master Corps at the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition, that was not enough to show the strength of the Sun-Moon Empire's strongest soul master corps. And the hundreds of dark blue figures in front of him, according to Ji Lin's spiritual perception, their momentum and oppressive force far exceeded those soul master corps stationed outside the city.

You should know that there are two regular soul guide corps of the Sun-Moon Empire stationed outside Risheng City. The only ones stronger than them are the five soul guide corps known as the guardians of the Sun-Moon Empire. I wonder which soul guide corps is coming this time?
The Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Corps had to protect Mingdu, and they would not move unless the emperor was traveling. Then, the dark blue figures in front of them were obviously one of the other four beast king-level soul instructor corps in the Protector of the Nation. No matter which one it was, if it ran into the hostages and the rescue team, it would definitely cause a devastating blow to the hostages.

There are two 500-man soul guide groups stationed around Risheng City. The strength of the soul guides is mainly around the second and third rings. Their entry threshold is the second ring. The reason why their overall strength is so strong is that they rely more on the coordination of soul guides, coordinated operations, soul guide positions, etc.

The Beast King Soul Master Group is composed of Soul Masters and above. Each of them can use flying soul guides, both in the air and on the ground. The leader is a ninth-level soul master. Among the three hundred people, there are many strong men! The explosive power and combat effectiveness of a Beast King Soul Master Group even exceeds that of several heavy-armored knights of 10,000 people.

The frontal combat power is already terrifying, coupled with their mobility, once a pursuit is launched, how far can the hostages run if they want to break through and escape?
"Asshole! How did you guard the hostages?"

The second elder looked at the three Zhongli brothers in front of him and shouted angrily.

This time, the three Zhongli brothers did not dare to attack again. They all lowered their heads obediently. The evil soul masters who had regrouped behind them were also silent.

This time, it was indeed their fault for not supervising the situation properly. Even if they brought the matter to the leader Zhongli Wu, they would not be in the right. Zhongli Wu might not necessarily stand on their side, so they did not dare to offend the second elder again.

The second elder and the fourth elder both looked a little pale.

They had just returned from North City. After arriving at North City and seeing the huge explosion outside the city, they couldn't help but gasp. According to their judgment, it was at least the destructive power caused by an eighth-level fixed-type soul guide artillery shell. The entire soul guide position in North City was wiped out, and at least more than two hundred soul guides were killed. Only some soul guides with higher cultivation and who were quick to seize opportunities were able to escape.

The east and west city walls were also destroyed at the same time. The second elder and the fourth elder were both experienced and experienced people. They immediately determined that someone was making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, and the target must be the hostages.

So they returned to South City as soon as possible, but they were still a step too late. When they saw the hostages escape, the three Zhongli brothers did not even dare to chase them and just waited for them to come back. How could they not take advantage of the situation to attack?

Zhong Litian smiled bitterly and said, "Second Elder, it's not that we don't want to chase them. You know, there are more than 500 hostages, and they are at least four-ringed or above. There are also a large number of Soul Douluo, Soul Saint, and Soul Emperor. If we chase them, we will only die!"

The fourth elder said angrily, "Didn't you say that the amount of Soul-Destroying Powder was always sufficient? How did they find a way to detoxify it? The antidote to the Soul-Destroying Powder is only owned by the leader, and it will only lose its effect if the amount is insufficient. How did you guard the hostages?"

Zhong Litian said with a wronged look on his face: "Fourth Elder, you can't wrongly accuse me! You can ask these people below, we definitely used a lot of Soul-Destroying Powder, and those hostages were like weaklings before."

Zhong Lidi behind Zhong Litian murmured in a low voice: "If you hadn't asked us to provide food to the hostages, how could they have the strength to escape from prison!"

"Shut up!" Zhongli Tian suddenly turned around and glared at Zhongli Di fiercely.

The Second Elder gave Zhong Li a cold look and said, "This means that I am still wrong."

"Second Elder, please forgive me. My second brother is a man of few words. Please be magnanimous and don't take it personally."

Zhongli Tian lowered his head with a sincere look on his face. Although Zhongli Di was not convinced in his heart, he did not dare to go against his elder brother, so he also lowered his head and admitted his mistake.

The fourth elder said coldly: "Go, get some water from the water dungeon and check the concentration of the Soul-Destroying Powder. I want to see if we have really wronged you." "Okay, Fourth Elder." The second elder said in a low voice: "Now is not the time to pursue responsibility. The most urgent task is to capture the hostages. Let's act immediately. Although there are many strong people among those hostages, no matter what, they can't be in good condition after being in the water dungeon for so long. Let's chase them now. As long as we delay them, when the reinforcements of the Soul Instructor Corps of the Sun Moon Empire catch up, none of them will be able to escape."

After all, the three Zhongli brothers are servants of the leader Zhongli Wu. One has to look at the owner before beating the dog. He also doesn't want to fall out with the three Zhongli brothers, as that would benefit no one.

"Okay, everyone, follow me."

The fourth elder also calmed down. He knew that forcing the three Zhongli brothers into a corner would not do them any good. The three brothers were in tune with each other and were a trinity. Their fighting power was no less than that of Titled Douluo, so there was no need for them to become mortal enemies.

"go!"

The second elder, along with the fourth elder and the three Zhongli brothers, five powerful men rose into the air at the same time and chased out of the city.

When they flew out of the city wall, the faces of the two elders and the three Zhongli brothers suddenly turned ugly, because everything outside the city seemed to have returned to calm. The hundreds of hostages, turned out to be Hong Fei Mingming, had completely disappeared, and there was only the soul guide position that was completely destroyed.

"This is impossible! They just rushed out less than a quarter of an hour ago, how could it be so fast..." The three Zhongli brothers were completely dumbfounded.

No matter what, the garrison outside is also a soul master position composed of 300 soul masters! Among them, there are level 6 and 7 soul masters, and even the team leader is a level 8 soul master. Even if they can't stop it, the defense should be able to hold out for a while.

How could they know that Wang Qiuer and others suddenly attacked and the Soul Guide Corps' formation was thrown into chaos. How could they possibly stop such a large number of hostages who were as ferocious as wolves and tigers!

The area surrounding Risheng City was all plains. Although it was difficult to rush out of the city with the hostages, it was still possible. Before setting out, the military advisors of the major forces had already made a judgment, but the most troublesome thing was how to get out after breaking through. It was not easy to escape in the endless plains. Especially when the hostages were physically injured to some extent, it was definitely impossible to escape for a long time.

As a result, all major forces made a bold and expensive decision.

If you want to escape from the enemy's sight as quickly as possible in the plains, there is only one way: speed!

Only by relying on amazing speed can we escape from pursuit in the shortest possible time. How can we help the hostages increase their speed? Of course, we can use flying soul guides.

This time, all the major rescue teams brought a large number of flying soul guides, almost thousands of them. This was the result of the full support of Shrek Academy, Douling Empire, Xingluo Empire, and Tianhun Empire.

These thousands of flying soul guides were deployed in the wilderness in advance by Nan Qiuqiu and her team who were divided into two groups. As soon as the hostages broke out of the encirclement, they immediately put on these flying soul guides.

Although many of these hostages are averse to soul guides, most of them have come into contact with flying soul guides. After all, who wouldn't want to try it if they could experience the feeling of flying in the fourth ring? Therefore, flying soul guides are one of the soul guides that soul masters have come into contact with the most. There are also some who have never come into contact with them, like Nan Qiuqiu at the beginning, but they are a minority after all. Soul masters have a strong ability to adapt to flying soul guides. Even if they have never used them, they can barely use them after a little adaptation.

Each flying soul guide is equipped with a map, and the next step is to evacuate in a dispersed manner.

All the hostages were evacuated in groups of sects and academies, flying in different directions, but their destination was the seaside. The only way to safely break out of the Sun-Moon Empire now was from the seaside.

At the same time, they also decided on a rendezvous point, but escaping in separate ways was not a perfect plan. Although escaping in separate ways would allow most people to escape, some unlucky people would be caught. If someone was caught, it would be hard to say whether the rendezvous point could be kept. But if they did not escape in separate ways, the movement of the large force would be too conspicuous and would soon be blocked by the Soul Guide Corps of the Sun and Moon Empire, and even fewer people would be able to escape.

However, the major forces were well prepared. It didn't matter whether the pursuers could find the rendezvous point. What mattered was that the hostages could escape to the rendezvous point. Once there, they would be safe.

In addition to Shrek Academy, those responsible for the reception also included strong men from the Body Sect, as well as strong men selected from the major sects and academies to which the hostages belonged. That was a team with more than ten Titled Douluo, as well as countless Soul Douluo and Soul Sage-level masters.
