On the left side, a hidden sentry suddenly woke up from his sleepy state.
"Hey, is there any movement?"
"Hahaha, don't scare yourself. What else can there be other than rats? Don't you know what kind of place this is? It's been several years and no one has barged in."
Another person laughed.
"No, I think I really heard something."
The first person shook his head and said, "I'll go take a look."
He rubbed his eyes, picked up the weapon in his hand, and walked outside.
However, just as he took a step, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew over. He felt as if his entire body was being haunted by evil spirits.
In the next moment, he found that his body had been pierced through by a beautiful glove.
His heart instantly withered as if it had been poisoned.
"Who is it?"
The other person also sensed that something was wrong and was about to get up to fight.
"Don't waste your energy. Just close your eyes and wait for death. Bone Melting Wind, die!"
Yin Ran was indeed worthy of being called Yin Ran. He had ample combat experience. Dealing with two fifth level Martial Vein cultivators was as easy as flipping his hand and easily finishing them off.
Ling Xiao couldn't help but nod his head.
This was really a good comrade-in-arms.
On the other side, Cold Plum's battle was also a pleasant surprise.
This Cold Plum seemed to have even more combat experience than Yin Ran. It was as if she had walked out of the Life and Death Arena.
When she killed, she didn't hesitate at all. She was decisive and ruthless.
Two plum blossoms floated past and two heads fell to the ground.
"This servant was sent to the Death Arena to fight other slaves and beasts to the death."
After Cold Plum came over, she didn't wait for Ling Xiao to ask and explained herself, "So killing people is nothing to this servant."
Ling Xiao nodded. He didn't have any intention of asking.
Everyone had their own secrets.
Moreover, for Cold Plum, she probably didn't want to remember the experience of the Death Arena.
"Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Let's continue."
Ling Xiao didn't plan to stay any longer. Killing these people didn't consume much of their energy.
This first battle could be considered as an assessment of everyone's strength.
After all, there was a huge difference between one's strength on the surface and one's actual combat strength.
Some martial artists at the peak of the sixth level of the Martial Vein might not even be able to defeat those at the early stage of the sixth level of the Martial Vein when facing the ferocious Illusory Pill dealers.
Of course, he had killed a total of seven enemies this time. Six of them were in the fifth level of the Martial Vein, so he had earned a total of 18 military merit points.
One person at the sixth level of the Martial Vein Realm and four military merit points added up to 22 points.
The allocation of military merit points was based on the captain's allocation, which meant that Ling Xiao had the final say.
Ling Yixue and Cold Plum had no objections to this at all.
Yin Ran naturally wouldn't have any objections. If he did, he wouldn't have joined this team.
As for how the Hidden Dragon Camp and the Border Guarding General's Mansion knew about it, it was even simpler.
Every Latent Dragon Camp disciple would carry an unmarked common grade treasure weapon with them when they came out.
The only use of this artifact was to record the number of martial artists killed and their strength, as well as the number of Illusion Pills destroyed.
Therefore, it was impossible to cheat in this matter. Of course, there was no need to be afraid of miscalculation.
This was where fairness lay.
The clans in Tianfeng City would never be able to do this.
After that, Ling Xiao led his three teammates forward. Along the way, they encountered nine enemies one after another.
These nine people were in the fifth level of the Martial Vein Realm, so they were easy to deal with.
Ling Yixue still didn't make a move. The ones who made the most moves were Cold Plum and Yin Ran.
Ling Xiao also helped at the crucial moment.
The crucial moment wasn't because the two of them were in danger, but because they had to keep it a secret. They couldn't let these people spread the news of the call for help.
Nine people, another 27 military merit points, totaling up to 49 military merit points.
However, this wasn't important. What was important was that during the battle, everyone tried to cooperate, and their tacit understanding was much better than before.
Soon, the four of them arrived at the deepest part of the Illusion Pill factory, which was also the gathering point of the Illusion Pill dealers.
"Next, we'll hide here and wait. It's best to act at night."
Ling Xiao found a secluded place and let the three of them eat and rest to recover their strength and energy.
"But we killed so many people just now. What if we're discovered?"
Yin Ran frowned.
"This location is the only way to get to the outside. I chose this place to rest to prevent anyone from eavesdropping on the news outside. Anyway, it's not far from nightfall. We'll kill whoever passes by here. If the news is leaked, we'll have to change our plan."
Ling Xiao replied.
He chose this place to stall for time and prevent the people inside from finding out about the deaths outside.
Of course, there was a limit to this. If it wasn't for the fact that it was getting dark, this method wouldn't have worked. They would have had to force their way through.
Yin Ran felt that Ling Xiao's words made sense, so she didn't say anything else.
Speaking of which, he was quite lucky. It was only when the sky turned dark that he saw three people walking over.
These three people should be going to replace the three people who were patrolling. The timing was just right.
This time, Ling Xiao didn't assign tasks to others. He directly killed the three people to save time.
"Let's go. It's a dark and windy night. Let's destroy this Illusion Pill factory tonight."
After killing the three martial artists who came to change shifts, Ling Xiao waved his hand and rushed toward the factory.
He was very fast, but he didn't make any sound. He was like a ghost in the night.
The three people behind him didn't dare to be slow and followed closely.
The three of them were quite strong, so they weren't afraid of being left too far behind.
"Do you see that? This factory doesn't stop working day and night, but the security is more lax at night. Other than those slaves who are forced to work, all the Illusion Pill dealers deserve to die!"
Ling Xiao pointed at the fire in the factory and said softly.
"Brother Ling, can you confirm roughly how many people there are?"
Yin Ran asked.
"Other than the slaves, there aren't many people. There's a total of 20, but it's a little troublesome."
Ling Xiao said with a frown.
"What's wrong?"
Yin Ran asked.
"The troublesome thing is that there are two Martial Masters, but fortunately, they are only at the early stage of the seventh level of the Martial Vein. There are also ten martial artists at the sixth level of the Martial Vein. Four of them are at the peak of the sixth level, and the remaining eight are at the fifth level."
Martial Master! There were actually two more!
Yin Ran's frown deepened.
If there were only martial artists at the peak of the sixth level of the Martial Vein, he wouldn't be afraid even if there were twenty of them. Even if he couldn't beat martial artists of the same level, he could still escape.
But two martial artists at the early stage of the seventh level of the Martial Vein, how could he fight them?
He couldn't help but feel a little regretful. Why did he follow a lunatic like Ling Xiao?
"Brother Ling, this is already not something we can deal with. Let's contact the other teams to carry out the mission."
Yin Ran suggested.
Ling Yixue's expression was indifferent and she didn't say anything.
Cold Plum didn't have any expression, as if life and death were insignificant to her.
"What, is Brother Yin afraid?" Ling Xiao asked with a smile.
Yin Ran nodded. This person was quite straightforward.
"What if those two Martial Masters don't exist? Does Brother Yin dare to take action? "Ling Xiao asked again.
"If there aren't those two Martial Masters, I don't care about the rest."
