288 The Hunt

Leaving the two dead Saints behind, Hui Yue and Wan Qiao rushed further into the city with Lord Zhu and Lady Sun by their sides. The force behind them was getting denser and denser as more and more armies slowly folded into the flood of beasts who rushed towards the Imperial Castle. No beast in the city had anything to fight against as the humans had long since given up fighting now that they knew they could safely escape; not to mention the threat of the crusaders that hung above their heads. All of them silently agreed to head towards the castle. Perhaps they would find more soldiers there who were willing to fight; who were willing to give their lives for the sake of protecting the Royal Family.
