Ch. 2637: Division of Troops (4)
The words were carved with his ngernails before he committed suicide. He knew that he could not live to
deliver the news, so he and his companions decided to send the news back to The Rising Sun City in
another way.
Magical beasts, which had established spiritual links with humans, would be the best choice.
Before he died, he said farewell to his magical beast partner for the last time and gave the magical beast
this nal explanation.
Now, his magical beast would replace him, using his life to send back this message to Shen Yanxiao.
This was the only way to send the news back to The Rising Sun City.
The little magical beasts were unwilling to see the dead gures of their masters. They didn’t want to leave,
but they had no choice. Even though they were not high-level magical beasts, they also had a certain
wisdom. They understood that the wooden card contained the message their masters wanted to send
out, even if they died.
Without further hesitation, the three little magical beasts started to run like crazy in the direction of The
Rising Sun City.
They were Flurry Rabbits, a type of rabbit that could run as fast as lightning.
They didn’t have any ghting strength, but they were very fast.
The journey to The Rising Sun City was still quite long. They must run at full speed to send the news back
quickly.
Running all the way, protected by their fur covered with blood and mud, they nally arrived outside The
Rising Sun City before nightfall.
The soldiers on the city wall did not notice the three muddy gures, which were only the size of a palm
when seen from above. Furthermore, the night was too dark. The little fellows who had been running for
a long time had no more strength. They could only lie at the gate of the city and look up at the lights on
the city wall.
The guards on The Rising Sun City wall suddenly smelled a faint scent of blood. During this time of war,
the smell made them extremely sharp, and they immediately looked for the source of the smell.
The smell came from outside the city gate. The guards threw torches outside the city to nd out what had
happened, only to see a large area of blood with their eyes.
“Go and inform the lord!” The guards were shocked by the sudden appearance of blood.
Shen Yanxiao immediately rushed outside after receiving the news. She did not feel any strong aura and
had her people open the gate.
The moment when the gate was opened, Shen Yanxiao froze.
She saw a s.h.i.+vering furball sitting in a large pool of blood. Beside it, two other magical beasts, which
looked very similar, had already died; the blood was owing from their wounds.
The only one who had survived was holding a b.l.o.o.d.y wooden card in his mouth.
“Is this… a Flurry Rabbit?” Several soldiers guarding the city recognized this magical beast at a glance. Only
the members of the Silver Hands had this kind of magical beast that lacked oensive strength.
Shen Yanxiao was shocked. During this period of time, the members of the Silver Hands were responsible
for probing for news of the war. Today, their magical beasts had returned, but they…
Shen Yanxiao quickly picked up the surviving Flurry Rabbit. She saw that the small wooden card was
engraved with the distorted words, “Division of troops”.
Shen Yanxiao’s voice was hoa.r.s.e. She looked at the Flurry Rabbit, whose breathing was getting weaker
and weaker, and at the other two lying in a pool of blood.
They ran day and night, constantly consuming their vitality; in the end, they had exhausted themselves
and were simply unable to knock on the gate in the darkness.
Therefore, they chose this way to attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the city.
“Bury them well.” Shen Yanxiao’s face was pale. After she nished speaking, she immediately rushed to
the City Lord Residence with the still-breathing Flurry Rabbit in her arms. No matter what, she would keep
the last Flurry Rabbit alive.
