The sudden appearance of the First Sect Grand Elder of the Five Tigers Sect immediately boosted their morale. The expressions of the two elders, Mei Yixuan and Qi Hang, eased slightly.
This time, the Five Tigers Sect had not come unprepared to exchange for the Dragon City Talisman. They had two Sect Grand Elders protecting them in secret.
If the Baili Sect overlooked this point, then it would be almost impossible for them to steal their Dragon City Talismans.
Although these black-robed men refused to admit it, Mei Yixuan was certain that these people were definitely from the Baili Sect. There were not many sects in the Taihang Mountains that dared to rob the Five Tigers Sect, and the Baili Sect was the most likely one.
"So it's the two Sect Grand Elders, Yun Pengqing and Wang He. I was wondering why the Five Tigers Sect would send a few small fries to handle such an important mission."
The leader of the black-robed men laughed sinisterly. Clearly, he recognized the two of them. They were the Five Tigers Sect Sect Grand Elders.
"I don't care who you are. Hurry up and leave. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
Yun Pengqing said coldly. Normally, he would not let such a thing happen. However, now that he had a precious treasure with him, he did not want to make a big deal out of this. Reaching the Five Tigers Sect safely was his top priority.
"Since he's already here, how can he leave? Do you think we don't know that your Five Tigers Sect has secretly made preparations? Two Sect Grand Elders. Tsk tsk, the Five Tigers Sect is really cautious. "
"Guys, come out. Let these people from the Five Tigers Sect know what it means to be the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole behind."
Following the words of the leader of the black-robed men, three terrifying auras suddenly rose from a corner of the forest. They swept past like plowing fields and enveloped the group of people from the Five Tigers Sect.
Another three men in black appeared on the scene. These three men's Cultivation was rather frightening. All of them were in the Embryonic Breathing realm, which was enough to be a Sect Grand Elder in a large sect.
Yun Pengqing and Wang He's facial expressions immediately turned ugly. In the entire Taihang Mountains, only a few sects could mobilize four Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioners at once. Moreover, most of them had mobilized all their forces. Only the Baili Sect had the ability to mobilize so many Embryonic Breathing realm Sect Grand Elders just to snatch a Dragon City Talisman.
"Cut the crap. Let's kill them and take their treasures."
Among the three ancient martial art practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing Realm who had appeared later, one of them had a frightening murderous aura. The murderous aura surged as he pounced over. He was prepared to kill the Five Tigers Sect and seize their treasures, not giving the Five Tigers Sect any way out.
"You're going too far."
Yun Pengqing was infuriated. These people were simply too arrogant. They actually wanted to kill all of them.
With a flash of green light, Yun Pengqing clashed with the man in black. However, after just three exchanges, he was forced back. His face was pale, and it was obvious that he was no match for the man in black.
"Cheng Zongping! So it's you, you old thing. "
The black-robed man exuded a threatening killing aura. His entire body shimmered with crimson light. That crimson light was known as the Sky Blood Murder. In the entire Taihang Mountains, only Cheng Zongping of the Baili Sect had cultivated this Blood Murder technique. Thus, as soon as they exchanged blows, Yun Pengqing discovered the black-robed man's identity.
The Sky Blood Fiend was quite terrifying. It could break through a martial artist's inner Qi defense. Once hit by the blood fiend, one would be seriously injured even if they didn't die. In terms of cultivation, Yun Pengqing and Cheng Zongping were about the same. They were both at the later stage of the Embryonic Breathing Realm. However, in terms of combat ability, Yun Pengqing was much weaker than Cheng Zongping.
Everyone in the Taihang Mountains knew about Cheng Zongping's ferocious name. The number of people who could defeat him could be counted on one hand.
Cheng Zongping's appearance had already confirmed that the Baili Sect was behind this operation. However, Yun Pengqing and Wang He's hearts sank to the bottom.
Cheng Zongping was ranked second in the Baili Sect. Since he had appeared, it was obvious that he was not prepared to let them leave this place alive.
"Wang He, you are in charge of breaking out of the encirclement. I will stay here to stop them." Yun Pengqing glanced at Wang He. There was a deeper meaning in his eyes. Even Mei Yixuan and Qi Hang understood the look in his eyes, let alone Wang He.
Mei Yixuan did not say a word. She took out a cloth bag from her bosom and handed it to Wang He. The bag contained the Dragon City Talisman.
Everyone understood what Yun Pengqing meant. Even Wan 'er and Wang Qian realized that a great disaster was about to befall them.
"This …" Wang He looked at the cloth bag in his hand. There was a look of struggle on his face. He understood what Yun Pengqing meant. Yun Pengqing wanted him to break out of the encirclement alone and bring the Dragon City Talisman back to the sect. At the same time, he had to report this matter to the sect leader. If he did that, he would most likely be the only one who would escape. Everyone else, including Yun Pengqing, would die there.
Mei Yixuan felt very regretful. She wanted to slap herself. If she had known this would happen, she would not have brought Wan 'er along. This was equivalent to harming Wan' er. Originally, she had thought that since this operation was so secretive, nothing would go wrong. However, she had underestimated the Baili Sect and that b * tch Fu Yu.
It was obvious that the Baili Sect had been able to know their whereabouts so accurately. It must have something to do with that b * tch Fu Yu. Furthermore, there was most likely another spy in the Five Tigers Sect. Furthermore, that spy's status was not low. Otherwise, Fu Yu could not possibly know so much. Someone must have told her all this.
"Brother Wang, now that things have come to this, the Dragon City Talisman is already a small matter. The important thing is whether we can spread the news. I do not want to die without knowing why. Even if we hand over the Dragon City Talisman to them now, the people of the Baili Sect will most likely not let us off. If you escape alive, perhaps there will be a day when justice will be served, "Yun Pengqing said with an extremely serious expression.
The Baili Sect clearly did not intend to let them leave alive. In such a situation, they would most likely kill them to keep their mouths shut. If one of them did not think of a way to escape, everyone would die here.
"Sect Grand Elder, only you have the ability to escape here. Hence, only you can spread the news of the Baili Sect's evil deeds. If you stay, you will only die with us. If you can escape, it will be our greatest consolation."
Mei Yixuan knew very well that only Yun Pengqing could slightly hold back the Baili Sect Grand Elders. Only Wang He would have a chance to escape. The rest of them were destined to die here.
Wan 'er and Wang Qian's faces were ashen. However, they both asked Wang He to escape. It was better for one of them to escape than for all of them to die here.
"Baili Sect, from today onwards, I, Wang He, will not live under the same sky as you. If I do not die today, I will not let this matter rest, "Wang He roared angrily.
Wang He roared angrily. His figure flashed like a bolt of lightning as he flew out of the forest.
At the same time, Yun Pengqing did not retreat. Instead, he advanced. He flew forward, prepared to fight all of them alone and hold back the Baili Sect Grand Elders.
"Do you think that you can escape? Dream on. "
Cheng Zongping laughed coldly. With a flick of his fingers, a beam of blue light shot up into the sky. It instantly exploded in the sky. Then, a blue silk net descended from the sky. The silk net looked like a fishing net. However, it was much larger than a fishing net. It covered a radius of five miles.
The blue silk net did not descend directly. Instead, it enveloped everyone above their heads, forming a semicircular space.
Wang He had already flown a thousand meters away. However, he still could not escape the envelopment of the blue silk net.
"Blue Silk Cloud Net!"
Yun Pengqing exclaimed. His expression instantly turned ugly. The Blue Silk Cloud Net was an auxiliary spiritual weapon used by the high-ranking Executors of the Huatian Palace to apprehend serious criminals. Once this item was used, it could envelop a radius of five miles. Almost no one could escape from this area.
Under normal circumstances, only the Huatian Palace Executors would have the Blue Silk Cloud Net. When did the Baili Sect have such a precious treasure?
Being enveloped by the Blue Silk Cloud Net, it was almost impossible for Wang He to escape.
"You should be content to die in the Blue Silk Cloud Net. You guessed correctly. From the beginning, we never intended to let you go back alive. "
Cheng Zongping said with a cold smile. The Blue Silk Cloud Net was a treasure that the Huatian Palace had specially rewarded to the Baili Sect for its meritorious service. This treasure had been in the Baili Sect for many years, but it was rarely used. This time, in order to deal with the two Five Tigers Sect Grand Elders, they had specially invited the Blue Silk Cloud Net.
Wang He, who had just flown a thousand meters away, also had an extremely ugly expression. He tried to fly high into the sky and attack the layer of blue silk net. However, he discovered that the blue silk net was extremely tough. With his ability, he could not break it at all.
"Go, kill this group of people." Cheng Zongping waved his hand. More than ten Baili Sect experts immediately pounced forward.
Among the black-robed men, the lowest cultivation was in the Qi Nucleation Realm. There were four Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners. The Five Tigers Sect was no match for them at all.
Mei Yixuan and Qi Hang were both in the Qi Nucleation Realm. Facing more than ten opponents of the same realm, they were at a disadvantage almost immediately and were surrounded by danger.
Meanwhile, Yun Pengqing and Wang He were each occupied by two Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners. They could not even fend for themselves and did not have the ability to help at all.
As for Wan 'er and Wang Qian, they could only watch dumbfoundedly. Any one of them could casually kill them with a slap.
Faced with this kind of irresistible danger, the two of them subconsciously hid behind Mo Wen.
Mo Wen shook his head helplessly. Why had he encountered such a mess on his first trip out? As expected, the martial arts circle was full of swords and knives. There was no such thing as peace.
He somewhat understood why these ancient martial arts sects valued the Dragon City Talisman so much. It was because Dragon City was not in the main space. Instead, it was in a mystery dimension called the Dragon City Mystery Dimension.
The situation in the Dragon City Mystery Dimension was a little special. It was very small, so small that it was only one-tenth the size of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. There was only one city in it, and that was Dragon City. Although the space in the Dragon City Mystery Dimension was small, it was very stable. For many years, it had been in the hands of the Huatian Palace. It was an important place.
The situation in the mystery dimension was very different from the main space. Mo Wen had only gone to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension once, and he had gained a lot. His cultivation had risen continuously. The importance of the Dragon City Mystery Dimension was certainly far greater than that of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. There must be incomparably rich resources inside.
For many ancient martial arts sects, the most important reason for going to Dragon City was most likely not the Martial Arts Circle Convention, but the huge amount of resources in the Dragon City Mystery Dimension. This was also why these sects would fight so hard for a Dragon City Talisman.
Mo Wen glanced at the men in black. Given the situation before him, if he did not act, the members of the Five Tigers Sect would most likely be doomed. (To be continued.)
