Since those people failed to find Su Pan'er and the others, it means that Pan'er and the rest must have escaped this calamity!
Ever since Qin Zitong and Qin Ru were held captive, Qin Hong had been actively leading his people, fighting their way toward Shengjing.
Meanwhile, Qin Yi's troops, not to be outdone, followed closely behind in pursuit. Both sides fought several battles, suffering casualties on both ends. However, when they attacked Xiangyang City, they ran into stubborn resistance from Hea Gong, an old subordinate of Qin Zitong.
Hea Gong had been a follower of Qin Zitong since the days he was Prince Xuan, loyally serving him. When Qin Zitong succeeded in forcing the Emperor to abdicate and ascended the throne, Hea Gong exerted even greater efforts. Later, when Qin Zitong assigned him to Xiangyang City, it was with the intention of having Hea Gong guard the last line of defense leading to Shengjing!
