Zhuangyuan Mountain was naturally a mountain, a very large and tall mountain. After crossing this mountain, one would arrive at the county capital of Zhuangyuan Commandery.
Qian Zi had chosen to ambush Chu Yang here!
In the morning, the warm spring sun shone down. Looking from afar, Zhuangyuan Mountain was still shrouded in fog. As one approached, the fog became thinner and thinner. Soon after, a mountain path could be seen winding around the mountain like a huge snake.
The entrance to the mountain could be said to be the "head" of the snake. It was like a huge snake opening its huge mouth. Ignorant people were entering the snake's mouth one by one.
On this side of the mountain, there were many people who wanted to enter the city. This mountain path was sometimes very busy, with people lining up like a long dragon. Sometimes, it was very quiet, with only a few scattered figures. Sometimes, it was even more desolate, with not a single person in sight.
On both sides of the mountain road, the vegetation was lush. It was extremely quiet, without a trace of sound. When the sun shone on an ancient tree that was broken in the middle, it seemed to be tiptoeing. It was very quiet, not making the slightest sound.
There were four people there, but there was nothing there. Even if one knew that there were four people there, they still couldn't see them. Instead, they seemed to only see four poisonous creatures: a spider, a centipede, a toad, and a scorpion.
The spider seemed to be weaving a spider web on the broken tree and quietly waiting for its prey to walk into it. The toad hid in a dark corner as if waiting for mosquitoes to come.
The centipede and the scorpion seemed to be crawling slowly in the wet soil.
These were the four members of the Dark Thorn: the spider, the centipede, the scorpion, and the toad!
They were naturally not poisonous creatures, but they were more poisonous than any poisonous creatures. Their hiding methods were also much better than poisonous creatures. Even if it was an Earthly Sovereign Realm martial artist, the four of them were absolutely confident that they could not detect them.
The four of them were waiting for the arrival of their prey, waiting for them to deliver a fatal blow. For this, they had been preparing for a long time. They had even practiced many assassination methods, so many that they couldn't even count them.
It could be said that they had never been so meticulously prepared. Their opponent this time was only a warrior in the Transcendence Realm.
They were all Saints, and the weakest among them was a Fifth Level Saint. Killing a Transcendence Realm ant was as easy as lifting a hand, but now they had to be so careful and cautious, afraid of making the slightest mistake.
Naturally, it wasn't just the four of them. In front of the four of them, there were things that they were very familiar with: Stone Gallbladder, Cinnabar, Realgar, and Nightmare Stone.
These were naturally the titles of these four people, and they were also members of the Dark Thorn!
In addition to Qian Zi and Viper, they had secretly assassinated ten Saints. Later, all of them would gather here.
Not only that, but the ten Saints sent by Saber Mang would also appear.
Twenty Saints were so cautious and went all out. It was more than enough to assassinate an Earthly Sovereign Realm cultivator. However, regardless of whether it was the spiders, scorpions, toads, centipedes, stone gallbladders, cinnabar, realgar, or nightmare stones, none of them had any objections.
Naturally, Qian Zi had his own reasons for doing so. They believed in Qian Zi 100%, because no matter how ridiculous Qian Zi's decision was, it would definitely be proven to be correct in the end.
This time, it would definitely be the same.
Therefore, the eight of them were very curious. How amazing was that Wild Dog called Chu Yang? According to Qian Zi, that dog was not only not a dog, but also not a person. It was an unprecedented existence, an existence that they didn't know about.
There was a brief moment of silence on the mountain path. As the caravan entered the mountain, it suddenly became somewhat noisy. The sounds of people, horses, and carriages interweaved into a busy melody.
Behind the caravan, there were sporadic people hurrying along the street, following the mountain path towards the county capital.
