The Imperial Guards received the order and walked to the window with the token.
He waved the token downwards, and a corresponding light responded to him.
Jiang Wen walked to the window and looked down, countless torches like chess pieces, the entire Heavenly Prison like a chessboard, at everyone's disposal.
"What are you looking at?" Jiang Wenji walked to his side and asked.
"Looking at the myriad forms of life." Jiang Wen said. "Do you think this world is like a chessboard?"
"Indeed."
"These Imperial Guards and Azure Dragon Army guarding the Heavenly Prison are like black and white chess pieces, fighting each other, but the ones being eaten are the chess pieces. No matter what, they are all people of Tianyuan City." Jiang Wen said with emotion.
After all, this battle was already destined, and if they didn't pay the price, how could the hidden hand in the dark be fooled?
"If not, I'm afraid those people above would discover the trick. In military matters, the most taboo thing is the heart of a woman." Jiang Wenji said, patting Jiang Wen's shoulder.
She silently watched the scene below the pavilion, the intersection of firelight and the sound of fighting. Each point of light represents one or even several lives.
Each disappearance of a light spot also represents the passing of life.
Fortunately, this time the ones at the front are the Imperial Guards. The Four Saint Imperial Guards each have their own abilities, and even the leading Azure Dragon Imperial Guards may not be able to break through the defense.
Watching the firelight constantly pouring into the Heavenly Prison, Jiang Wen asked Xue with some worry, "Is now the time to close the net?"
"No." Xue shook her head.
"Then when will it be?" Jiang Wen asked curiously.
"When the firelight settles down, it will be time to close the door."
After Xue finished speaking, the others didn't ask any more questions. They quietly watched the situation inside the Heavenly Prison, waiting for the opportunity to close the door and beat the dog.
As the candle burned halfway, the sound of fighting in the Heavenly Prison seemed to gradually subside.
The white-armored general on the side stood up and picked up the halberd placed aside.
"Four Saint Marquis, Director of the Music Bureau. The time has come. I will go to support the battle. Please wait for my good news, Saint Marquis." The white-armored general smiled and prepared to go downstairs.
But then he heard Jiang Wen call out to him, "General Bai, I will warm a cup of wine for you and wait for your return."
"Then I will thank you, Director of the Music Bureau." The white-armored general laughed dumbly when he heard this, and then strode away.
"Why did you say that?" Jiang Wenji asked curiously.
Jiang Wen told her the story of Guan Yu beheading Hua Xiong, and Jiang Wenji laughed.
"Does this dynasty called Han have such interesting things? I have never heard such an interesting story before."
"Well, this situation is also a good time." Jiang Wen felt that he was idle anyway, so he started telling the Romance of the Three Kingdoms from the beginning.
Just as the others were listening to the story, the battle in the Heavenly Prison gradually subsided.
"Red Marquis is mighty, these mortals are naturally hard to resist." Several people walked to Red Marquis and said respectfully.
The guards in the Heavenly Prison had already retreated into the Heavenly Prison, and the eight hundred Azure Dragon Army had also rushed in, beginning to occupy the front yard of the Heavenly Prison.
"Let's go in, presumably that person has been waiting for a long time." Red Marquis grinned.
He stepped on the blood and strode towards the Heavenly Prison.
Looking at the strictness of the Heavenly Prison and the majesty of the Dharma, Red Marquis was very contemptuous in his heart: "What a good place, in the future, that Heavenly King must try it well. What virtue and ability do these wastes of Tianyuan City have to occupy the land where the old lands meet?"
"Quickly search for Bai Xiang, lest there be changes in the night."
"Yes!" The subordinates dispersed.
Red Marquis stood under the patio, admiring the moonlight in the sky.
However, at this moment in his heart, there was always a faint ominous premonition.
"Could it be that I have overlooked something?" He thought to himself.
The sound of fighting in the Heavenly Prison gradually faded away, and the eight hundred Azure Dragon Imperial Guards sent by Jutian Marquis occupied the front row of the Heavenly Prison.
Bai Wang's people were searching for Bai Xiang's whereabouts in each prison cell, and everyone also wanted to release some prisoners to cause chaos.
It's just that the prisoners in this Heavenly Prison have all had their magic power abolished, becoming useless wastes.
Which made everyone wonder, is this Royal City Heavenly Prison a place to imprison wastes? There isn't even half a useful person.
Everyone didn't care about these things. They had already attacked the Heavenly Prison, what was there to worry about?
At least before dawn, they still had a lot of time.
"Squad Leader, why not take your subordinates to see the female prisoners in this Heavenly Prison? I always hear that many beauties are imprisoned among the female prisoners. If we don't do something, your subordinates will have come in vain."
A soldier looked at the armored leader with a smile, his words full of expectation.
The person named Squad Leader looked at the female prisoners only a wall away from the front Heavenly Prison, and his heart was also very itchy. In the flattery of everyone, he gradually lost himself.
"That's right, brothers have worked hard, we can't get nothing, right?" The Squad Leader laughed, and the surroundings responded like clouds.
"Yes, money and women, there should always be something." Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere suddenly became harmonious.
Everyone called friends and gathered hundreds of people to go to the female prisoners in a mighty manner. Everyone was looking forward to the scene in the female prisoners, thinking about pulling out a few beauties to help them have fun.
The firelight passed through several doors like a long dragon, and the Squad Leader walked into the back Heavenly Prison happily.
His eyes looked at the towering walls of the Heavenly Prison, and then the whole person froze in place.
But he saw in the open space not far away, iron-clad soldiers were as silent as a forest.
Their eyes were fixed on the people who came out, and the long spears in their hands were quietly raised.
"It's time to clean the yard." Only then did someone laugh from the general's armor, and then a burly man walked out slowly.
He was wearing white armor, holding a halberd, and his shadow walked slowly towards the Squad Leader and others like a god.
Without waiting for Bai Wang's people to do anything, he heard him coldly order: "Kill!"
"Buzz—"
It was like countless bees flying around the ears, and it was like thousands of bowstrings ringing together.
Accompanied by dense white light falling from the sky, arrows fell like a rainstorm.
Dozens of thieves fell into the light of arrows before they could react.
"Not good! This is a trap! Run!" The Squad Leader shouted in horror, and ran towards the front yard of the Heavenly Prison in a panic.
He wanted to tell Red Marquis about this, to let Red Marquis know that the entire Royal City Heavenly Prison was a trap, a place of death to lure them in.
But before he could take a few steps, he heard a light arrow pierce through the air.
His chest shook with severe pain, he looked down at his body, and an arrow had already pierced through him.
The Squad Leader slowly turned around and saw the mighty man put down his longbow.
"Good, good archery." The Squad Leader smiled bitterly, and then fell to the ground.
The white-armored general put away his longbow and looked at the fleeing people. He took the lead and walked towards the backyard. Accompanied by the forest-like army formation, he gradually surrounded the entire Heavenly Prison.
Red Marquis, who was sitting in the front Heavenly Prison, always felt that he had overlooked something.
He thought left and right, but he couldn't remember what he had forgotten.
"Red Marquis, this front Heavenly Prison should be a place to imprison important monks, why can't we see even a person with magic power?" The subordinate asked in confusion.
"In the matter of fighting, how can there be no capable people, capable people?!" Red Marquis suddenly woke up.
He was overwhelmed by the victory of this battle, and now he remembered what he had forgotten.
This operation was a sneak attack, why was there no movement in this Royal City? It seemed that the guarding Imperial Guards also tacitly made way for them to enter.
Most of the previous battles were with the Imperial Guards, but after entering this Heavenly Prison, the Imperial Guards were nowhere to be seen.
There must be treachery! Red Marquis stood up and roared towards the people around him, waving his arms: "Go and call people! This place is a trap!"
