Now, Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou, the two bosses, were truly frustrated.
Logically, based on their own judgment, the combination of the four of them was already the strongest team in the world. Be it in terms of wits or strength, they were invincible, let alone someone who dared to cause them trouble.
Their team consisted of the current Unrivaled Expert, Ling Xiaozui; the former Unrivaled Expert, Dugu Chou; Heaven's Inquisition, who knew Yin and Yang and could predict the future; and the weakest of them all was the legendary God of Wine, an unparalleled expert with a pinnacle cultivation base, Feng Xiange!
Whether it was in theory or in reality, the team of these four people could be said to be invincible anywhere in this world!
In spite of this, the reality was that their journey had not been peaceful at all!
After a period of recuperation, the four of them, who had recovered from their injuries, walked out of the mountain. Feng Xiange expressed his indignation and suggested to find a way to cause trouble for the Four Seasons Tower again, to catch them off guard and catch them off guard.
No matter how bad the outcome of the previous battle had been, it was confirmed that the Four Seasons Tower's headquarters was in the mountain. Now that everyone had recovered from their injuries, why not return the favor?
The reason they had been tricked the last time was because they had not been aware of the ambush. Now that everyone was on guard, how could they be ambushed again?
When he made his move this time, he was planning to catch the enemy off guard. He should have succeeded in one strike, and it was flawless.
Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou thought that Feng Xiange's suggestion was reasonable.
In particular, Ling Xiaozui had another concern in his heart. Honestly speaking, it was the most appropriate thing for them to go back and look for Yun Yang to discuss their next move. However, based on the various assessments, there had to be a problem among the four of them.
If they could not find this person and brought him back hastily, it might lead to a greater disaster.
On the other hand, if they were to attack the Four Seasons Tower again, regardless of whether there was a trap or an ambush, they would be more certain of their own people after experiencing it. It was better to clear their surroundings and return only after they had come to a conclusion, in order to avoid any lurking dangers.
If he and Dugu Chou, two top-notch experts, had actually done something that they were unaware of, they would become the biggest joke in the martial world. Not only would they be a laughingstock, they would be shameful for all eternity.
But at the end of the day … they couldn't afford to lose!
Hmm, there was something wrong with his mentality. The more he couldn't afford to offend these four people, the more he didn't want to be at a disadvantage!
Why … I'm so awesome, but I'm losing here?!
Thus, in the end, the three of them agreed to this suggestion.
Gu Chaliang, on the other hand, was the only one who objected to the suggestion firmly. He declared, "This trip is fraught with danger. Not only is there a bloodbath, but there's also the danger of a trapped dragon. Repent and you'll be saved; you'll lose if you advance rashly."
It was an unprecedentedly firm objection.
However, Dugu Chou was already suspicious of him. Why would he listen to him?
At the same time, Ling Xiaozui wanted to confirm something as well. In addition to Feng Xiange's incitement, there was no way Gu Chaliang could overturn the idea of a counterattack no matter how insistent he was.
If he said a few more words now, the four of them might start fighting on the spot, and he would be the target of all.
The other three would definitely attack him together, and the only result would be him being beaten flat. That would be a great injustice.
He had no choice but to reluctantly agree.
Therefore, on the same night, the four of them crept up the target mountain again to explore the Four Seasons Tower.
The mountain where the Four Seasons Tower's headquarters was located was extremely steep. The highest point of the main peak in the middle was so high that it reached the sky. A conservative estimate would be about ten thousand feet tall, surrounded by cliffs. The entire peak was like a brush holder.
In fact, the peak's name was Brush Holder Peak.
Feng Xiange pointed at the Brush Holder Peak from afar and explained rather proudly, "See that? Only when you enter this area can you see this mountain that's like a brush holder. The last time we were ambushed, it was in the wide area under the brush holder. "
"This time, we've crept up the Brush Holder Peak, coming out of the blue and taking their headquarters by surprise. Even if they're on guard, will they be able to defend themselves against this?"
Feng Xiange's plan could be said to be extremely bold, but it had its own unique and unexpected aspects.
Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou pondered for a moment, feeling that the plan was feasible and had a high success rate.
No matter what, with the combined combat power of the four of them, even if there were any accidents, it would be difficult to stop them if they only wanted to flee when things went south. No matter how strong the other party was, it would not be difficult for them to retreat unscathed!
"I'm already half a step into my coffin. I don't want to leave an obsession in my heart that will linger in my death!" Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou nodded in agreement to Feng Xiange's words.
Gu Chaliang's opinion, the only one who disagreed, was meaningless.
In spite of this, Gu Chaliang still insisted on one condition – it was fine to go up and fight. However, they had to plan out their strategy and retreat beforehand. Not to mention anything else, Brush Holder Peak was easy to defend and difficult to attack. Although everyone's skills were superb and they would not be bothered by the hindrance, there was still a limit to one's strength. The martial world had countless tricks up its sleeves, and it was impossible to guard against them. Therefore, there had to be a certain level of safety measures.
For example, it was not enough to prepare healing medicine. They could hide it in their mouths and swallow it when they needed it. Based on the terrain, they could make a few kites that could glide high up in the sky just in case. Could they guarantee that they would not fall into some kind of trap that prevented them from gathering mystical Qi? In addition, their bodies had to be prepared as well … As for the antidote, they might as well consume it beforehand to defend against poison. If there was nothing else, they could just treat it as medicine. It was better to be prepared and avoid the risk.
Gu Chaliang's series of requests annoyed Dugu Chou to no end, but Gu Chaliang was insistent on it.
'My request is the biggest consideration for the implementation of safety. It's for everyone's good. If you have any objections, why don't you do as I say? Alright, then forgive me for not accompanying you. The three of you can go play yourselves. '
The three of them thought about it and realized that Gu Chaliang was indeed doing it out of kindness. The capability that the Four Seasons Tower had displayed earlier was indeed astounding, far above their own. It was not excessive to be cautious, so they did as they were told.
Then, the four of them charged forward.
However, what they did not expect was that they were ambushed once again as they charged forward.
When the four of them set foot on Brush Holder Peak, their powerful deific consciousness quickly realized that there was no one on the peak. When they carefully snuck into the Four Seasons Tower's headquarters, there was still no sign of anyone in the only building on the peak.
How could the four of them not know that something was amiss when they saw the situation? They wanted to pull themselves away, but it was too late. A super explosion that they had never seen before erupted.
With a loud boom, the entire towering peak that was tens of thousands of feet tall turned into rubble and debris in an instant.
The Four Seasons Tower had buried an unknown amount of explosives under Brush Holder Peak. They were detonated at the right time, resulting in such an earth-shattering explosion!
…
"Today is the last night watch. Tomorrow, I'll go to Jinan for a meeting.
During this period of time, the incident was only one of the aspects. Actually, I've been thinking about something. The plot in Tianxuan Continent had basically ended, and we were about to enter the Bound of Universe. The Bound of Universe was the last segment of the book.
The setting and plot needed to be considered.
However, this was not the main reason.
The main reason was that the intention was wrong.
Before writing this book, the intention was to create the country and the world. Then, the more he wrote, the more confused he became. He had put in a thousand times the effort to write, only to realize that there were two extremes – those that he liked, and those that he loved to death. Those that he did not like, he would not even look at.
