C1439 Qing Chang'en Was Arrested
"I said, His Majesty was taken away by the people of Devil Clan, and he was taken away from the Imperial Palace." On the other side of the voice transmission magic tool, Yun Batian's voice rang out.
"What's going on?" Yang Xuan's expression instantly became gloomy, and his voice revealed killing intent. He initially thought that the Devil Clan's main force had already retreated. There shouldn't be any danger in Central Province now. However, he didn't expect that the Devil Clan would still run amok in the dark.
Moreover, the fact that they were able to capture Qing Chang'en from the heavily guarded imperial palace indicated that the Devil Clan had sent out a very powerful force this time.
On the other side of the magic weapon, Yun Batian's voice became somewhat stuttering. After a long while, he said, "Well, they left a few words behind when they captured His Majesty."
"What words?" Yang Xuan immediately noticed something and asked.
"They said that if they want to redeem Qing Chang'en, alright. We will use you to exchange with His Majesty. " Speaking up to this point, even Yun Batian found it somewhat unbelievable.
He knew that Yang Xuan wasn't from the Qing Country, so his relationship with the Qing Country definitely wasn't as deep as the other citizens of the Qing Country. Furthermore, he had done enough for the sake of the Qing Country. The request of the Devil Clan wasn't any other request. If he went there, it would be disastrous.
That was why Yun Batian hesitated when he told Yang Xuan.
Yang Xuan furrowed his brows. For a moment, his mind was filled with thoughts. Whether he would help or not, it seemed unfair to Yang Xuan. He thought of the person that the golden-robed man mentioned when he was unconscious. He smiled bitterly. Yang Xuan didn't really believe that the man in golden clothes said that Yang Xuan was accompanied by a disaster. But now, it seemed like it was true.
In the past, it would take Yang Xuan at least a day to travel from Heaven Realm Mountain to the imperial palace of Qing Country. But now that he had mastered the Earth Shrinking Technique, it only took him two hours to travel from Heaven Realm Mountain to the imperial palace of Qing Country.
In the imperial palace, Yang Xuan saw Yun Batian and Qing Yunliang. At this moment, Qing Yunliang's face was full of regret. Yang Xuan only found out after asking. Before this, they already knew that there was a person in the palace who was staring at Qing Chang'en, but Qing Yunliang was overly confident in his own strength. This had caused Qing Chang'en to be taken away just like that in the palace.
"Brother, although I know that it's a little outrageous to say that, but in this war of Heavenly Devil... You have done enough for the Qing Country, even if you aren't willing to help. We will not blame you." Yun Batian said to Yang Xuan in front of Qing Yunliang.
Qing Yunliang couldn't help but frown, but he immediately let go. He was born in the royal family, so naturally, the royal family was his priority. However, what Yun Batian said was right. Yang Xuan had done so many things for the Qing Country, but in fact, he hadn't gained much from it. Even if he didn't help this time, it wouldn't be a big deal.
However, a powerful Qi was suddenly unleashed from Yang Xuan's body. After forcing Yang Xuan and Qing Yunliang to take a few steps back, he said fiercely, "No, I have to go this time, not to help you. I want to let these Devil Clan know who is the true master of this world."
Yun Batian sensed the change in Yang Xuan's strength and said in shock, "Yang Xuan, your... your strength?"
Qing Yunliang's facial expression changed as well. He naturally could feel the change in Yang Xuan's strength. Compared to Yun Batian, Qing Yunliang had a better understanding of the changes in Yang Xuan's strength.
"It's nothing. I just accidentally advanced a realm." Yang Xuan said casually, as if this matter was just a common occurrence to him. Yun Batian opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
Yang Xuan continued asking, "Senior, three days later, do you have time to accompany me to the summit of Heaven Realm Mountain? Go and rescue His Majesty, and let those bastards of Devil Clan know. Why is this place called the Mortal Realm?"
"Yes." Seeing Yang Xuan's decisiveness, Qing Yunliang felt a wave of heroic spirit and said to Yang Xuan without hesitation.
What Yang Xuan said just now also made Qing Yunliang feel better. Currently, Qing Country was facing internal and external threats. This time, in the battle of the Heavenly Devil... Although the damage brought to the Qing Country was nothing compared to the damage brought to the Central Province by the last battle of the Heavenly Devil, it was still not worth mentioning. However, that was only relative.
In just three months' time, there were more than seventy cities in Qing Country. There were at least thirty abandoned cities, and they were destroyed by the devil. These thirty cities could no longer be inhabited. Currently, a large number of civilians in Qing Country were homeless, and all kinds of industries were waiting to be rebuilt. And now that Qing Chang'en had left Qing Country, Qing Country could still rely on the support of all kinds of people for a short period of time. However, as time went on, if no one stood out to preside over the situation... The entire Qing Country would surely be thrown into chaos because of this.
At that time, it wouldn't just be the Qing Country's problem. A large number of civilians would rebel because of this. No one could tell how many people would die in this chaos.
Qing Yunliang felt guilty when he thought about the consequences that he might bring to the Qing Country because of his own conceit.
"It's fine. It's not your fault." Yang Xuan patted Qing Yunliang's shoulder and comforted him. He had already found out what happened when Qing Chang'en was kidnapped from Qing Yunliang's mouth. In his point of view, this was something that had been planned for a long time, and it was behind all of this. There must be more devil behind this, but it had yet to surface.
Otherwise, how could the Devil Clan sneak into the palace if they didn't have the Spiritual Force in their hands? When Yang Xuan heard Qing Yunliang's words, he immediately knew about the black smoke that had grabbed Qing Chang'en. It must have something to do with the large-scale movement of the devil that he had seen for the first time.
"Ai, it's useless to blame anyone now." Yun Batian sighed. Regarding this matter, apart from Qing Yunliang and Yun Batian, at this moment, there was no third person in the palace who knew about it. Although Zhao Changsheng knew that Qing Chang'en and Qing Yunliang had planned to lure the spy out, what would happen in the end? He didn't know about it, and he didn't ask about it.
"Alright, let's take a rest. Three days later... Senior Qing Yunliang and I will head to Heaven Realm Mountain to find the lair of the Devil Clan." Yang Xuan thought for a while, then raised his head and said to the two of them, "Senior, remember to pay attention to the ambush of the Devil Clan when the time comes. Batian, you must not let the army relax during these few days. No one can say for sure whether the Devil Clan is planning something bigger. What if Senior and I both fall in Heaven Realm Mountain? The Devil Clan might launch another attack at any time."
