The two seriously injured royal guards took the blood pill and hid in the slum to rest for a while. Without time to check the situation, they hurried back to the guard stronghold and organized new personnel while reporting to the higher-level guard organization.
An hour later, Long Aotian flew in with hundreds of elite guards and landed in the slums.
Seeing the tragic scene, Long Aotian frowned.
The two seriously injured royal guards have recovered about 80% at this time.
"What's going on?"
"His Royal Highness, someone reported that the wanted criminal Yang Xiao was hiding in the slums. Captain Chen brought us here to arrest Yang Xiao. Unexpectedly, this Yang Xiao was extremely powerful and far exceeded our expectations.
We, we were no match for him, he killed fourteen people including the informant. "
"Did Yang Xiao say anything?"
"this,"
The two guards looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.
Long Aotian snorted coldly and said:
"If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
"Your Highness, forgive me. The wanted criminal Yang Xiao is very arrogant. He even said without shame, 'Tell Long Aotian that one day, sooner or later, I will come back and kill him.'"
This guard imitated Yang Xiao's tone, and it was somewhat similar.
The hundreds of guards around him were stunned and looked at the guard in confusion.
The guard coughed lightly, "That's what he said at the time."
The companion next to him poked his back with his hand and whispered:
"you're so dumb?"
Long Aotian had a dark look on his face, glared at the guard, and then asked:
"Why is Yang Xiao hiding in the slums?"
"Tell the eldest prince that somehow Yang Xiao got acquainted with Old Man Zhan from the slums. He pretended to be the son of Old Man Zhan from the city and deceived our attention."
"Surround the slums and hunt for Yang Xiao. Then mobilize two hundred guards to come over and turn the slums upside down to find Yang Xiao."
"yes."
Soon, the slum was surrounded.
Hundreds of guards searched the slums from house to house, causing the entire slum to become agitated and filled with complaints.
After struggling for a long time, I couldn't find any clues.
Long Aotian became angry and shouted:
"The unscrupulous people in the slums are harboring wanted criminals, working together in collusion, and endangering the safety of the Great Dragon Empire. I will burn them to death."
"Your Highness, this?"
A guard captain under Long Aotian hesitated for a moment, looked at Long Aotian, and whispered:
"Your Highness, setting fire to slums will cause heavy casualties and have a huge impact. I hope Your Highness will think twice. In addition, the Fourth Prince will also make a fuss about this matter and say that you kill innocent people indiscriminately and have a bad impact on His Highness's reputation."
Long Aotian snorted coldly,
"If you don't kill them as a warning, how will these untouchables know to abide by the laws of the Great Dragon Empire? Isn't it true that harboring wanted criminals will kill them all? Stop talking nonsense and set fire to me. Let these untouchables know the consequences of harboring wanted criminals. Burn!"
The captain of the guard had no choice but to lower his head and said:
"Yes, Your Highness, please take a step first to avoid being accidentally injured by the fire."
"Send me people to search Yang Xiao in the slums in the eastern suburbs, southern suburbs and northern suburbs, and warn them that whoever dares to harbor wanted criminals will have their homes burned down just like in the western suburbs."
After Long Aotian finished speaking, he flew away with a team of personal guards.
The captain of the guard sighed and ordered:
"Go and tell all the people in the slums that we are going to set fire to the slums later and tell them to run for their lives."
"Sir, is it really burning?"
"Nonsense, do you dare to disobey His Highness the Prince's order?"
"But,"
"Stop it, give the order first and give these people an hour to escape. Let them pack up some valuable things and escape. There is only so much we can do. Otherwise, we will lose our lives if we disobey His Highness the Prince's order." It’s hard to guarantee.”
"yes."
A moment later, hundreds of thousands of poor people in the entire slum were wailing. A large number of people came over and knelt in front of the captain of the guard to beg for mercy.
"Masters, please let us go. We are already living a very difficult life. This is our only shelter from wind and rain. If we lose even this, how will we live?"
"We didn't know that Yang Xiao was a wanted criminal. To this day, I don't know and I don't know him either."
"Please, gentlemen, please do it. We will kowtow to you."
The scene was filled with wailing.
The captain of the guard frowned and said loudly:
"Everyone, listen, this is the order of His Highness the Prince. No one can change it. Now I give you one hour to pack your things and escape. In an hour, you will light the fire on time. Instead of begging for mercy here, it is better to escape quickly.
I have already disobeyed His Royal Highness the Prince's order to set fire immediately. There is only so much I can do, so be content. "
Everyone knew that their bad luck could not be changed, so they all cried bitterly and ran home with tears in their eyes. They packed some valuable things and took some clothes and quilts with them to escape.
An hour later, raging fires in the slums soared into the sky, lighting up half the sky.
The cry was earth-shattering.
In the night, Yang Xiao took Bing'er directly to the gene store headquarters and found Gu Hai.
Gu Hai took Yang Xiao to his room.
"Yang Xiao, why did you come early? There are still three days left."
"Lord Gu Hai, I was discovered by Long Aotian's people. I just went through a fierce battle and killed more than a dozen people on the other side. Now I have nowhere to go, so I can only escape to you and ask for your help. "
Gu Hai looked at Yang Xiao with a serious expression. He obviously did not expect such an accident to happen.
"When you came in just now, no one noticed you, right?"
"No, I'm wearing a cloak, and Bing'er is also held in my arms. Most people won't notice me at all."
"There are a few spare rooms in the backyard of the gene store. You can rest in the back first. Did you bring any food?"
"Yes, I have enough food stored in my space ring for half a month."
"That's good. This way I don't have to send someone to bring you food, so as not to expose you. After you make such a fuss, the whole Dragon City will probably be shaken. You can rest in the backyard room for three days. After three days, our gene store As soon as the spaceship arrives, I will take you away from Dragon City immediately."
"Thank you so much, Lord Gu Hai. This kindness and kindness will be unforgettable to Yang Xiao. If you have the opportunity in the future, you will definitely repay me."
"Hey, Mr. Yang, there is no need to be polite to me. You are a friend of our great elder, and you are also the person he specified for us to take care of. This little thing is just a piece of cake for our gene store.
Long Aotian will not doubt us no matter what, and let alone him, even the Great Dragon Emperor does not have the authority to search our gene store, so you can just stay calm. "
"Thank you, Lord Guhai."
"You're welcome, I'll take you to the backyard myself."
Gu Hai took Yang Xiao to the backyard of the Gene Store headquarters, opened a room, and sent Yang Xiao in.
"Mr. Yang, I have to let you live in here for the time being. Unless I send someone to pick you up, you can't come out on your own."
"good."
