Jared and his companions found themselves returning to the city once again.
At that point, the city had already descended into chaos, with a multitude of soldiers scrambling throughout.
Jared‘s brows slightly furrowed. He knew had to make a swift exit. He was certain that Thorley would have sent men to chase after through the Teleportation Array. However, it wasn’t an easy feat for Jared and his companions to break free from the multitude of soldiers.
“Bastian, can you get in touch with your father?”
Jared wanted to get in touch with Maceo, urging to send troops to Winged Tiger City. As long as Maceo led the charge against Winged Tiger City, it was certain that the city’s soldiers would be urgently redeployed.
In this way, the pressure on Jared and his team would be significantly reduced.
When Jared arrived, had forgotten to pass on the communication device to Maceo. Now, wanted to get in touch, but there was no way to reach him.
“I have a way to get in touch with my father!”
As Bastian spoke, pulled out a token from his chest pocket. This token was identical to the one Rainah had given to Jared then.
After Bastian dropped a single drop of his blood essence into the token, swiftly established a connection with Maceo.
Jared didn’t beat around the bush; went straight to the point and explained the situation to Maceo.
Maceo led an impressive army of over a hundred thousand, launching a grand assault toward Winged Tiger City.
Eason turned to Jared and asked, “In such a short span of time, it’s unlikely that the soldiers here could be reassigned. Where on earth can the five of us hide?”
Jared was also unfamiliar with this place. He had no idea where they could possibly hide.
“I know of a place. Follow me. It’s filled with imprisoned human cultivators. If we can free them, perhaps our odds of breaking out of the city would significantly increase!” Aisha began to speak.
“So, you want us to rescue your clan’s people?” Madman glanced at Aisha with a skeptical look. “We’re not fools. The security at that place is bound to be even tighter.”
Aisha anxiously responded, “There aren’t many guarding it, really…”
She did indeed want Jared and his group to help rescue clan‘s people, but it was also to increase their numbers for a better chance of breaking out of the city.
“Lead the way…” Jared spoke to Aisha.
Aisha gave a nod, then led Jared and the others through the city. She was evidently much more familiar with the city’s layout than Jared and the others.
There were several instances where they nearly got discovered by the soldiers, but in the end, Aisha managed to evade them cleverly.
In no time, Jared and his companions found themselves in the massive Willowbank. It was like a city within a city, with towering stone walls that were eerily bathed in a blood-red hue.
“All the human cultivators are imprisoned here.” Aisha pointed toward Willowbank. “Currently, many guards are hunting us down, so there probably aren‘t many left here to keep guard. They also wouldn’t have expected that we didn‘t run away, but returned to this place instead, allowing us to catch them off guard.”
“All right. We’ll do as you suggest.” Jared nodded in agreement. “Let’s put on our armor first, then we’ll proceed.”
Jared and his companions donned their armor once more, and then, escorting Aisha, they made their way toward Willowbank.
As they approached the entrance, an elderly figure blocked their way.
“This is the sky prison. Without a military order, entry is forbidden,” The elderly man spoke coldly.
“We are escorting this fugitive, who had escaped from the sky prison. However, we managed to apprehend again.” Jared stepped forward, pointing at Aisha as spoke.
When the elderly man saw Aisha, his eyes instantly blazed with anger.
“D*mn it! I let you run away, and I ended up getting a mouthful of scolding because of it!” The elderly man stepped forward, harshly slapping Aisha across the face.
The slap left Aisha bleeding from mouth and nose. Yet, could only endure it, glaring at the old man with seething anger.
The elderly man expressed, “Thank you for your help!”
With that, casually waved his hand, and the grand city gates gradually swung open.
Jared followed the elderly man, escorting Aisha inside.
