At midnight, more than ten peaks of the Cheng Family suddenly caught fire at the same time. This made the disciples very confused and panicked. They quickly went to the peaks to put out the fire.
"This is really strange. How can several peaks catch fire at the same time?" Many people were puzzled while putting out the fire.
"I think something must have gone wrong. Otherwise, something like this wouldn't have happened."
Obviously, such a strange situation made everyone feel that the fire was not simple. At least, there were too many strange things in it.
Fortunately, the people who put out the fire were in time. Although so many peaks were on fire at the same time, the fire did not cause too much damage. It was basically under control.
Somewhere on Yunzhu Peak.
"Why are there only thirteen people? Where are the other two? " When all fifteen people should have gathered here, there were only thirteen people here. This made Deacon Liu very puzzled.
"Maybe they are not here yet. Let's wait a little longer!" Xiaowu said.
"It's been so long. They should have arrived long ago. Nothing will happen, right?" He Guang said with some worry.
Before they split up, they had already agreed that they would gather here immediately after setting the fire.
Now that the others had arrived, only two people were not here. It could not be that they were slow!
"It shouldn't be. Didn't everyone go well?" The others said.
From the process of their action, the whole process was indeed very smooth. On the way back, they were even thinking that this action was much simpler than they imagined.
"Deacon Liu, what do you think? Should we wait for them or take action directly? "Xiaowu asked.
Although their action was quite smooth just now, all the disciples of the Cheng Family were putting out the fire. It was a good opportunity to take action.
If they waited for them to put out the fire, it would be difficult for them to take action again.
"Do you know which two didn't come back?" Deacon Liu asked.
"It seems to be Shen Tao and Wu Jiang." He Guang looked at the people here and said after thinking for a while.
"These two people are not weak. They actually haven't come back yet. It seems that something really happened. We have to take action quickly. Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be unforeseen events!" When Deacon Liu heard that it was these two people, he immediately felt that something must have happened to them, and they were not late.
"If that's the case, let's hurry to Yunshou Peak. I think I saw their patriarch go to Yunhai Peak. Yunshou Peak should be empty now!" He Guang said.
Because he came from Cloudy Sea Peak.
Although he had never seen Cheng Yu in person before, after learning about Cheng Yu from Yungui City, he more or less had some understanding of Cheng Yu's appearance.
More importantly, those Cheng Family disciples had taken the initiative to greet Cheng Yu. This was extremely obvious.
However, he did not act impulsively because of this. Although his target was Cheng Yu, he was very clear that it was impossible for him to capture the Cheng Family Head with just his strength alone.
Furthermore, it was true that their mission target was Cheng Yu, but he wasn't their target today.
Because in Yungui City, there were too many legends about Cheng Yu. No one knew of Cheng Yu's true strength.
Therefore, when they were in Yungui City, they did a lot of research and made a lot of plans.
In the end, they decided not to capture Cheng Yu directly, but to change their method. They were going to use the method of arson to disrupt the Cheng Family's rhythm and then lure Cheng Yu away.
This way, they could go to Yunshou Peak to capture Cheng Yu's women.
According to their investigation for so many days, they knew that although Cheng Yu was strong, the strength of his women was very ordinary. Therefore, they finally thought of the safest method.
Because they knew that Cheng Yu loved his women very much, as long as they captured his women, they were not afraid that Cheng Yu would not give in.
"Are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" When Deacon Liu heard that Cheng Yu had actually left Yunshou Peak, he was even more delighted.
Although there were two purposes for arson, one was to cause trouble for the Cheng Family, the other was to lure Cheng Yu out.
However, he also knew that it would be easier to cause trouble for the Cheng Family. It might not be that simple to lure Cheng Yu out.
Therefore, even if Cheng Yu did not come out, they would still enter Yunshou Peak and capture his women.
Cheng Yu was very strong and it would be difficult for them to capture him. However, his women's strength was ordinary. Therefore, even if Cheng Yu was in Yunshou Peak, they would still be able to capture his women.
As long as they captured his women, everything would become much simpler.
Although he knew that this would still be very dangerous, this was the simplest method he could think of. Who asked him to be unlucky and be sent by the Outer King to complete such a mission?
If this mission failed, even if he returned to the Outer Dynasty, he would probably not be able to escape death.
Since that was the case, he could only give it a try.
"I'm sure. Their disciples all call him Patriarch. This can't be false" He Guang said with certainty.
"Alright, time waits for no man. Let's hurry to Yunshou Peak now. If Shen Tao and Wu Jiang have really been captured by them, then our actions will soon be known by them. We must finish this quickly "Deacon Liu reminded everyone.
Originally, it was already very difficult for them to carry out today's mission with only 15 people. Now that they were only halfway through the mission, they had already lost two people. This could be considered as a bad start.
Moreover, with two less people, not only did the pressure on them increase, but they were also more likely to be discovered.
If either Shen Tao or Wu Jiang couldn't hold on, it wouldn't be long before all their plans would be revealed by the two of them.
Therefore, they had to finish this quickly. After capturing them, they would leave the Cheng Family as soon as possible.
As long as Cheng Yu's women were in his hands, Cheng Yu would definitely follow them wherever they went.
Although they couldn't capture Cheng Yu, with Cheng Yu's women around, they could be considered to have indirectly completed their mission. Presumably, the Outer King would not blame them anymore.
During the day, they had deliberately circled around Cheng Yu. They already knew the direction of Yunshou Peak and hurried towards it.
Yunzhu Peak and Yunshou Peak were not connected, so they had to first rush to the nearby Qingyun Peak and then enter Yunshou Peak from there.
However, during the day, they had already learned that from Qingyun Peak to Yunshou Peak, there was someone guarding it. They needed to go through identity verification.
When they went up the mountain, they had already verified their identity. Therefore, they weren't particularly worried about this because they believed that their current fake identities wouldn't be seen through.
"En? Why isn't there anyone guarding it? " However, when they crossed the Immortal Bridge from Qingyun Peak to Yunshou Peak, they discovered that there was no one guarding the Yunshou Peak. This made them very surprised.
"Could it be that they already know our plan and deliberately led us into a trap?" Xiaowu was puzzled.
"That's impossible. Even if Shen Tao and Wu Jiang were really captured by them, it's impossible for the two of them to hand over all the plans so quickly.
Furthermore, how long has it been? Even if they had already handed over the plans, it's impossible for them to hand over all the information so quickly and set up a trap to wait for us. " Deacon Liu looked around suspiciously. He only saw that many disciples were also heading to Qingyun Peak from the Immortal Bridge to put out the fire.
"Could it be because of the fire, everyone wanted to put out the fire, so they removed the guards?" He Guang looked at the disciples who were rushing to put out the fire and said.
"It's not impossible. Don't worry about it too much. After they control the fire, the patriarch of the Cheng Family will come back soon. We have to catch them before he comes back. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome!" Deacon Liu reminded everyone.
Regardless of whether Cheng Yu's strength was really strong or not, he didn't want to test Cheng Yu's strength head-on. It was too risky.
Cheng Yu was like a god in the Cheng Family's sphere of influence. He would rather believe that all of this was real than believe that it was fabricated by others.
Even if this matter was 50-50, he still had a 50% chance of failing. Therefore, he would definitely not gamble with his life.
Having no guards was also a good thing for them. At least they didn't have to worry about their identity anymore. They also didn't have to waste too much time here.
They would be able to complete their mission faster.
"That's the mansion on Yunshou Peak. It's said that those women are in the backyard of the mansion. We have to enter the mansion!" After entering Yunshou Peak, they kept walking forward. Very quickly, they saw an eye-catching and huge mansion gate.
"Strange? There's actually no one guarding the mansion? " However, when all of them approached the huge mansion, there was actually no one guarding the gate. This caused them to be very puzzled.
"Why is this different from what we imagined? Isn't Yunshou Peak the most heavily guarded among the 36 peaks of the Cheng Family? Why isn't there a single guard here? "He Guang was also puzzled.
"Deacon Liu, could there really be a trap here?" Xiao Wu felt a little uneasy, but he couldn't tell what it was.
"Now that things have come to this, even if there's a trap, we still have to barge into this dragon's pool and tiger's den!" Looking at the Yunshou Peak mansion in front of him, he also felt that there might be a trap here. However, he couldn't bear to leave just like that.
After all, after they left, if they wanted to come back to the Cheng Family again, it wouldn't be so easy.
Moreover, it would be useless to use the same trick again.
Most importantly, even if Shen Tao and the others were captured, it was impossible for them to know their intentions so quickly.
Therefore, he still planned to give it a try.
"Don't care so much. Perhaps this is how it is. It's true that Yunshou Peak was the peak where the Cheng Family's Patriarch resided. However, it was precisely because of this that under normal circumstances, no one would dare to barge into this mansion. Therefore, it didn't matter whether there were guards or not.
