C89

The gyrfalcon headed south without any delay. He swapped horses for three horses every day and night.

Entering a region controlled by the Western barbarians, even if it was an official road, the gyrfalcon didn't care if he met Western barbarians or not. Fortunately, bad luck would not always accompany a single person.

The gyrfalcon didn't encounter any obstructions along the way. Passing by the river, the gyrfalcon saw a dense group of Western barbarians surrounding a city.

The area where that city was located was called Qinnan. The city that was surrounded by Western barbarians was called New Wave City. It was where the New Wave Gate was located.

Hai Dongqing's eyes were still very good. Even from far away, one could still see the clothing of the people on top of the city gate tower, confirming that it was the gate of the new tide.

The gyrfalcon saw that the new disciples and elders were guarding the city while the western barbarians sent people to attack.

New Wave City Tower.

Regardless of whether they were elders or disciples, the majority of the people at the New Wave Sect were watching the western barbarian army outside of the city.

They were carrying food, drink, stones and arrows.

There were also many broken bows and arrows on top of the city wall, and the disciples who were carrying these things had to pick them up and take them to the city to repair.

At this time, even the Sect Leader was commanding the troops on the city walls, even being willing to put himself in danger.

It was not because they did not want to retreat, but it was because they were trapped when they were trying to buy time for the common people and the young disciples.

After being trapped at that time, there would not be any other sects or aristocratic families coming to their aid, because they also had their enemies. In fact, Hai Dongqing didn't see it in detail.

Not only were there people from the New Wave City, there were also people from the big clans that had been sent to the New Wave City from Huian Line to the Mu He Line.

Once they were trapped, the people on the tower wouldn't listen to a single complaint. Occasionally, there would be one or two people who would sit on the ground while leaning against the city wall and sigh emotionally, "It's such a pity for my new wife. Ai, I can only hope that she won't foolishly wait for me."

Or his son, or his family, or the money he had saved that he had not had time to spend, or the wine he had buried under the ground that he had not had time to taste.

However, no matter how emotional they were, they immediately got up after hearing the westerners' attacks. They pulled their bows to the brim and released them.

As soon as they saw a person under the city gate tower, they would throw boulders and smash him to death.

Leaning against the city wall, a middle-aged man muttered, "Mother, your son can't be filial. The world can't remember your son, but your son died for the world. Don't be sad!"

He was still mumbling when the western barbarians launched another charge. This time, the entire army was on the offensive. The people on the city wall saw the western barbarians charging toward them.

"Release the arrows!" The new sect leader shouted.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!" Arrows rained down on the Western barbarians.

"The siege vehicles are here again! Old Wu, bring me to the city gate to guard it! " Seeing the siege chariots coming from the western barbarians, the new sect leader hurriedly shouted at a middle-aged man who had just arrived.

Without a word, the middle-aged man led the two or three hundred disciples to the city gate.

A few disciples went to support the gate. The fifty disciples raised their bows and arrows and stood in two rows. The rest of the disciples drew their sabers and stood on both sides of the gate.

Boom!" BOOM! BOOM!

The siege engine crashed again and again, and the several disciples standing at the top of the city gate were in an exceptionally strenuous state.

Boom!" BOOM! BOOM!

In the end, the city gate was still forced open. The few disciples quickly dodged to the side and shot arrows at the city gate.

The few Western barbarians didn't even have time to react before they turned into hedgehogs.「 Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!」 The first few Western barbarians fell to the ground and sent another arrow flying toward the city gates.

After this wave of arrows passed through, the disciples of Hou Zhai and Old Wu rushed out of the city gate. However, they only managed to land in the path of the city gate.

At this time, the few disciples who were at the top of the gate quickly came forward to clean up the corpses. Their cleaning speed was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, the corpses blocking the city gates were all cleaned up.

One of the disciples shouted, "Return to the city!"

The disciples in the passageway retreated into the city as they fought. A few of them were bitten by the Western barbarians, and one of them shouted, "Close the city gates!"

"Come in!" The disciple in charge of the gate replied.

At this time, Old Wu, who had retreated into the city, drew her saber and dashed out. With two cuts, she was able to redeem the lives of her three disciples.

As the city gates closed, two hundred disciples lost more than ten people.

BOOM! BOOM! "Boom!

The city gate was hit again, and the few disciples were still struggling to hold on.

The barbarians tried to climb the city walls with hooks and hooks one after another. A few of them managed to climb up the walls, but after a few casualties, they were killed.

The invasion of the western barbarians had caused the New Wave City to feel a sense of oppression, but no one was afraid.

The gyrfalcon was watching from afar and gnashing his teeth.

There was nothing he could do. He could do nothing in the face of tens of thousands of Western barbarians.

The gyrfalcon shouted, "Giddy up!"

He lifted the horse's hooves and walked further into the south.

As the gyrfalcon walked on the familiar land, it was no longer bustling with life. Some were dilapidated, some were corpses.

He raised his eyes and saw smoke everywhere. He pricked his ears and listened attentively. There were sounds of fighting everywhere, and miserable cries and weeping could be heard everywhere.

On the way, Hai Dongqing saw more than three lonely cities like the New Wave City. Perhaps there were more places that he couldn't see.

The deeper they went, the less smoke they had, and the less screams and cries of battle. However, the number of corpses did not decrease, but rather increased.

Besides the occasional sounds of horse hooves, the southern territory was desolate.

A bare black village, a bare black forest.

There were all sorts of ways to die among those corpses.

When they were alive, there were rich people, but the rich people's possessions were plundered away; there were beautiful people who used to be beautiful, but they were not dressed in clothes;

There were disciples from aristocratic families, but they had all lost their martial arts; there were children, and there were elderly people …

Under the Western barbarians' cavalry, they had no status, no distinction between old and young. If anything was useful, they could be used. If not, they could be killed.

There were already many corpses, but the gyrfalcon knew that not all of them were victims. There were still a lot of people who should have been captured by the Western barbarians.

Those that were caught had to play with them. Those that could work had to do some work. If there wasn't enough food, they could be used as food.

Hai Dongqing knew clearly that was why he was in pain. Tian Jue knew very well that was why he was in pain. And what was even more painful was that even though the two of them knew that it would end up like this, it didn't change anything.

What was about to happen had finally come. What was about to happen had finally happened.

The more the gyrfalcon knew about this, the more he was worried about his master's consolation. He was as clear as Tian Jue was that the Ocean Viewing Sect would never let their young disciples die.

There was nothing he could do for the safety of the world. Even if he went to tens of thousands of Western barbarians, he did not have the ability to save them.

The gyrfalcon rubbed his tired horse as he looked in the direction of the Guan Hai Sect and continued to move forward.

He had to find the surviving disciples of the Ocean Viewing Sect. The sect was his second home, and in his opinion, these disciples were no different from his own brothers.

He wasn't worried about Tian Jue. Tian Jue had the ability to protect himself.
