Looking for 9 Emperor Wives
Chapter 38 The Trap may be

In the morning the group of warriors who were chasing the trail of the Dark Gods follower were again preparing to continue the journey.

They are currently dismantling the tent and collecting all the equipment they used yesterday into a storage bag.

The group again followed the trail left by the followers of the dark God, although getting into the forest the way through was getting more difficult.

The lush trees and shrubs and difficult terrain hampered the pace of the horse they were riding, even so they did not give up and continued the journey even though it seemed slow.

"We cannot continue the journey on horseback anymore" said one who saw the road in front of him there was a steep climb and filled with large rocks.

Seeing that they came down from the horse and shot the horse in the tree, they continued their journey by flying with qi.

"The traces of the Dark God's enthronement are getting harder to find!," shouted one who was in charge of searching for traces for the entourage.

"Send a lookout eagle, and investigate the surrounding area," the commander of the force ordered.

They then flew 2 reconnaissance eagles and the eagle began to fly down the mountain and forest region.

Half an hour later the 2 eagles returned, and reported what they saw.

"Commandant's report in front is a house that is equipped with a strong landscape and defense, I'm sure it's their headquarters." The owner of the eagle said to the commander of the army.

"We go there and stop around the fort and arrange the strategy from a safe distance" said Princess Jade Hong who listened to the report.

The group again continued the journey for 1 hour and finally they saw the fortress they were heading to from a distance of 200 meters.

3 Meters of thickets and dense trees cover their presence, and make it easier for troops to scout the area around the fort.

Jiyu who had been with the commander of the army had listened to the commander's direction, about the strategy they were going to execute.

"First trail search team make sure there are no traps around the fort, to 2 formation team cancel the fort defense and to 3 team of lander kill the soldiers who are in the tower and gate of the fort."

"We'll enter after we've settled into a safe condition. For the Princess please do not enter the fort, you better wait here." The commander said with an expression of fussiness clearly visible on his face.

"My commander joined this troop group to participate in the attack and this is also the father's order" Giok Hong said firmly.

"But Princess ...,"

"Quite Commander, I'll be fine. Helio and my Elite troops will protect me," Jade Hong immediately interrupted.

"That's right you don't need an authority we'll protect your Highness Princess," said one of the soldiers of the elite force.

The team that got the task started to move, they ducked and crouched in the thickets while walking and brushed the grass as slow as possible.

Jiyu approached Jade Hong's daughter who was standing observing the area around the fortress, accompanied by her fiance and the elite troops guarding the surroundings.

"Have you contacted the other troops?" asked Jiyu.

"It was, but they didn't reply to the letter I sent. We also cannot wait for them until, later on, our existence can be known to the enemy," Jade Hong said.

Jiyu saw Helio's gaze turning sharp every time he approached Jade Hong, and she also frequently interrupted Jiyu's conversation with Jade Hong.

Jiyu saw that could only endure his misery and swallowed all the oaths that were almost thrown out.

"Master don't let Jade Princess Hong enter the fortress, it's a trap," Jiyu suddenly heard Aro's voice sending her telepathy.

"So what happened, explain it in detail."

"If the Princess is injured and her blood drips down the altar, the general can get up straight away."

"Do you know where the altar is?" ask Jiyu.

"Unfortunately not, here there is only a treasure warehouse, prison rooms and a very large floor and other harmless rooms" Aro replied.

"Keep watching what's going on inside, we'll be in soon."

Jiyu could not prevent Jade Hong's daughter from just entering the fortress for no apparent reason, as it could arouse the suspicion of people to her. Because Jiyu does not trust the people around the princess.

The archer team finally managed to complete its task and they were able to get inside the fortress without any traps being attached.

"We enter around the fortress safe," Commander of the army entered first in his army.

They continued to go inside and opened the door of the mansion vigilantly, they also managed to easily kill the enemy soldiers on guard.

"It's too easy, have they left here" muttered the commander of the army.

Jiyu walked behind Giok Hong and his elite troops, he was wary of being around because only he knew they were trapped.

"Why quiet could it be that they have left, it is in vain that we have come here" one man grumbled.

They then arrived at an open place with a very large floor and can accommodate thousands of people at once.

Because they thought the enemy had gone their vigilance decreased, once the attacks of spear arrows and magic and destruction formations attacked them many soldiers immediately died.

Hundreds of black-robed and masked people came and directly attacked them from all directions, soon a battle took place in that place.

Jiyu did not care about the chaotic surroundings by the noise, the sound of weapons and the screams held back from the wounded soldiers.

Jiyu was only focused on guarding Jade Hong from the surrounding enemies, he was also keeping Helio Dan and his elite soldiers in his sight.

Unbeknownst to Jiyu, 1 of the princess's private army is scattered, and the soldier shoots the princess from a distance.

Jiyu curled the head of the enemy who attacked him from behind, he also kicked and dodged the attacks that kept coming towards him.

An arrow shot rapidly towards Jade Hong and hit his shoulder.

"aaaaaa," Jade Hong's cry shifted Jiyu's attention, he saw Jade Hong's shoulder being stuck in an arrow.

"Don't pull!," cried Jiyu saw Helio would pull the arrow just like that.

"Don't pull the blood out!," Jiyu hurriedly walked over to Jade Hong.

Blood was seeping on Jade Hong's sleeves but not a single drop of blood fell to the floor.

"I just want to treat it, what if the arrow is poisonous," Helio said and he stuck the arrow out of Jade Hong's shoulder.

A few drops of blood just fell to the floor without having time to stop Jiyu, he even forgot that he could stop the time temporarily.

As soon as Jade Hong's blood dripped onto the floor, a red light came from within the floor and shone extremely brightly.

The floor also suddenly exploded and the shale killed several hundred people there.
