Nie Li looked at Yang Fuzhao's words and removed his hand from the hilt. He slowly walked out, trying his best to cover up his crippled leg as he walked towards Yang Fuzhao. However, he was also very careful. He could not completely trust the person in front of him. What if this move was just a smokescreen, waiting for him to lower his guard before taking action?
"Rest assured, Nie Li. I, Yang Fuzhao, am not that kind of despicable person." Yang Fuzhao turned around and looked at Nie Li. His eyes were filled with contempt and disdain, as if he could see through Nie Li's thoughts with a single glance. He opened his arms and looked very calm.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Nie Li never thought that Yang Fuzhao would be so sharp to guess his identity. However, with the mask that he's wearing, it's impossible for Yang Fuzhao to recognize him.
"A person's face can be disguised, but their eyes and habits can't be hidden." Yang Fuzhao said.
"Your eyes are still fresh in my memory. Furthermore, your hand on the hilt and that black blade aren't obvious. "Yang Fuzhao directly exposed him.
"Speak, what's the matter?" Nie Li also lowered his guard. This sentence can also be considered as admitting his identity. "I need your help." Yang Fuzhao said. Nie Li was stunned for a moment. Is there something that Yang Fuzhao can't figure out? Why is he looking for me to help him today?
"I need you to help me eliminate the Black Mountain Stronghold." Yang Fuzhao looked at Nie Li's puzzled expression and said something shocking.
"I want to know why." Nie Li's heart was in a perilous situation. As a member of the Black Mountain Stronghold, why does Yang Fuzhao want to eliminate the Black Mountain Stronghold? What are his intentions?
"You don't need to know too much. Your mission is to help the army eliminate the Black Mountain Stronghold, right? As for me, I will help you from the inside. When your mission is completed, my wish will also be fulfilled. "Yang Fuzhao said.
Nie Li was speechless for a moment. He never thought that Yang Fuzhao would think so far ahead. Presumably, he already had some clues after the scout team was killed.
"Sure." Nie Li agreed. He doesn't care about Yang Fuzhao's intentions. He only wants to complete his mission. As for what Yang Fuzhao will do after the Black Mountain Stronghold is destroyed, it's not what he wants to do.
"I like to cooperate with smart people." When Yang Fuzhao saw Nie Li's immediate agreement, a trace of a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He knew that Nie Li wouldn't refuse. This was a choice that would benefit both of them.
"I want to hear your plan." Although Nie Li agreed, he still wanted to hear Yang Fuzhao's plan. Since Yang Fuzhao proposed this alliance, it was impossible for him to come unprepared.
"The First Master of the Black Mountain Stronghold is called Tao Duan. He is at the Connate Full Circle realm. He has been immersed in this realm for several years and is only one step away from the Grandmaster realm. The remaining members of my Yang family are not strong enough, and they are all in the Black Mountain Stronghold, so we can't put up any resistance. However, when the army attacks, we will passively fight back. With the strength of Tao Duan's subordinates, we won't be able to hold on for long. At that time, I will set down a rope at the cliff behind the mountain. Bring a group of people and come over immediately. At that time, I will instigate a rebellion. With enemies on three sides, Tao Duan will have nowhere to run. " Yang Fuzhao didn't hesitate to reveal his plan. This was his boldness. Since he wanted to form a stronger alliance, there was no need to hide it. Furthermore, he had some understanding of Nie Li.
"However, I only have ten people on my side. How can they pose a threat?" Nie Li didn't doubt Yang Fuzhao and Zhao Bao's men at all. However, if he wanted to launch a sneak attack from the back, wouldn't this amount of people be too little? Furthermore, with their strength, in such a chaotic battle, it was very likely that they would be sending themselves to their deaths.
"It's enough. When the army comes, you can take action." Yang Fuzhao looked at Nie Li. He never thought that Nie Li would have a time when he cherished his life so much. However, he cherished the lives of others.
"Alright, I've said what needs to be said. The rest is up to you. If you want to contact me at that time, blow this thing at the cliff behind the mountain. " After Yang Fuzhao finished speaking, he threw a finger-length whistle to Nie Li and walked back the way he came. Nie Li watched him leave. He stood at the top of the mountain and looked at the Black Mountain Stronghold in the distance.
The houses in the forest were constantly dispersing in his eyes, turning into small black dots. The small black dots were constantly gathering. It was like darkness, hidden in the depths of the forest.
"My lord, you've finally returned." The Demon Apostle saw that Nie Li had returned, and the burden in his heart was finally lifted. Nie Li nodded his head in response, then sat on the ground. Yang Fuzhao's sudden alliance was still somewhat out of his expectations. However, just as Yang Fuzhao said, joining forces with him to eliminate the Black Mountain Stronghold would indeed allow him to complete his mission earlier. However, Nie Li was still considering what Yang Fuzhao's goal was.
The destruction of the Black Mountain Stronghold didn't seem to be a good thing for him. After losing a place to hide, wouldn't he and the Yang Family have to wander around again? Nie Li couldn't figure it out for a long time, so he decided not to think about it anymore. He sat down cross-legged and began to cultivate.
The next day, Nie Li opened his eyes early in the morning. Seeing that the other people in the cave were all meditating, he quietly got up and walked out. Nie Li could see from afar that the army had already arrived at the foot of the Black Mountain Stronghold. Their neat footsteps and mighty military flags fluttered in the morning breeze.
"They sure are slow." While Nie Li was sighing, he saw a group of about fifty people appear from the army. They directly charged towards the entrance of the Black Mountain Stronghold. However, before they could reach the stronghold, they were smashed to death by a huge rock.
This kind of action was undoubtedly courting death. If they wanted to take down the Black Mountain Stronghold from the front, the army would definitely have to pay a huge price. However, if it was a small scale battle, it would only damage their own fighting strength.
The bodies of the dead soldiers were thrown halfway up the mountain. The people of the Black Mountain Stronghold didn't bother with them, and Zhao Bao didn't send anyone to pick them up.
After this test, the situation fell into a predicament. Zhao Bao also knew how difficult it was to take down the Black Mountain Stronghold from the front. However, there were no other ways. For a moment, Zhao Bao felt troubled. This time, he took the initiative to volunteer. If he were to return in defeat, the prince would definitely not let him off easily. He might even be killed.
Should he look for Nie Li? However, he couldn't contact him. However, Zhao Bao knew that Nie Li was definitely in the dark. He must have seen everything that happened here. He must be sneering at him in the dark!
When Zhao Bao thought of this, he was somewhat dissatisfied. "Men, send another fifty people. Take advantage of the moment when the Black Mountain Stronghold is lax and charge up." Zhao Bao immediately gave the order. He couldn't allow Nie Li to underestimate him.
"General, the Black Mountain Stronghold's defense is very tight. They don't give us a chance at all." The staff officer beside him said. He couldn't refute Zhao Bao loudly, so he could only say it tactfully, hoping that Zhao Bao would retract his words.
"I don't care. Either you go yourself or send someone." Zhao Bao was somewhat angry as he shouted. The staff officer shrank his head and walked out of the tent. Moments later, there was a series of noisy footsteps.
Nie Li saw that Zhao Bao was sending people to their deaths again. He felt sorrow and hatred. He felt sorrow for the weak, and hatred for the useless.
The attack of fifty people had no effect other than adding to the wails and corpses. Zhao Bao held his head. In just a short morning, a hundred people had died. Nie Li looked at the mountain path that was covered with corpses. Blood flowed down the slope and seeped into the soil.
"Sir, the scouts have information." Just as Nie Li was lamenting, the Demon Apostle suddenly came to Nie Li's side. "What is it?" Nie Li asked.
"There's a team quietly passing through the black mountain." The Demon Apostle's words caught Nie Li's attention. At this time, a team actually appeared in the valley. Wasn't the timing too coincidental?
"Who are they? Can you tell?" Nie Li asked. "I don't know." The Demon Apostle thought for a moment. He couldn't think of the escort team nearby.
"Come with me to take a look." Nie Li let the Demon Apostle lead the way. After crossing the mountain, he saw rows of people on the other side of the narrow mountain path. Because the mountain path here was very narrow, escort teams rarely used this path.
However, it was a little strange today. A battle had just happened over there, and here, an escort team quietly passed through the black mountain. Nie Li felt that it was a little strange. As the escort team went deeper, Nie Li saw the face of the leader and his body trembled.
"Demon Apostle, go and call all your subordinates over." Nie Li's tone was cold. Although the Demon Apostle couldn't see Nie Li's face, he still obeyed Nie Li's words under the gradually cold atmosphere and oppressive power.
The Demon Apostle appeared behind Nie Li with everyone. Nie Li looked at the twenty people and immediately ordered, "My Lord, they've all been brought over." "Everyone, go and find me some boulders and thick wood."
Boulders and trees were too easy for these people. In just a moment, dozens of boulders were piled up on the mountain top.
"Push it down." Nie Li said. He then grabbed a boulder and threw it down the mountain. The rumbling sound of the boulder rolling down the mountain echoed in the valley. Seeing Nie Li throw it, the others followed suit.
When the transport team saw the boulder rolling down the side of the cliff, they were all in a mess. Many people were directly crushed to death by the boulder.
The middle-aged man in the lead shouted as he resisted the impact of the boulder. "Everyone, don't panic." Jiang Kai shouted. This person was the one who stopped Nie Li from asking for medicine in Gusu City, Jiang Shifeng of the Assembly Manor.
"Follow me and kill!" Nie Li roared. He pulled out his Autumn Rain Blade and ran down the mountain with his Qing Gong. "Three Thousand Miles Floating Snow." Before the person arrived, the blade aura had already poured down.
"Everyone, be on guard." Jiang Kai never thought that they would be ambushed. He knew that the situation wasn't good.
However, because of the impact of the boulder, the team had already suffered countless casualties. In addition to Nie Li and Ying Sha's attacks, the team was cut off. Countless people fell under the butcher's blade.
"I am Jiang Kai of the Assembly Manor. May I know your name?" Jiang Kai looked at Nie Li's demonic aura and the Autumn Rain Blade in his hand. He didn't know when he had provoked such a powerful expert.
"You'll know my name when you die." Nie Li looked at Jiang Kai. Hatred was like a flood that had broken through the dam, engulfing his body. He couldn't wait to kill Jiang Kai with the blade in his hand.
"Then we'll see." Jiang Kai saw that Nie Li was determined to kill and knew that it was useless to say anything.
Under the Nine Revolutions of the Heavenly Demon, Nie Li's figure quickly moved. The Yin Wind Ghost Blade was also as fast as his movement technique. Every slash was as fast as lightning, leaving Jiang Kai no room to fight back.
"Floating Extinction Bloody Hand." Nie Li held the blade in his left hand and gathered the Bloody Hand Seal in his right hand. Nie Li took advantage of the gap and slapped Jiang Kai's shoulder.
"Pfff" Jiang Kai spat out a mouthful of blood. His face suddenly changed. The power of the Great Bloody Hand had already begun to erode his body.
