Qing Ju hurriedly said, "Manor Head, don't be angry anymore. The most important thing now is to think of a way to save the young miss."
"I'm not angry at her. It's all my fault. That girl is still too young. I shouldn't have spoiled her and put her in that position. Now I've harmed her. I only hate … "Yang Qing resolutely gazed in the direction of Suppressing Second Hall, and bellowed furiously," He Yunye, you old scum! How dare you bully me! "
He immediately guessed that it was He Yunye who had instigated him from behind. He had spent a huge sum of money to prepare lavish gifts for He Yunye. Bearing the infamy of being a two-faced, treacherous servant, he had humbly gone to seek refuge with He Yunye. Who knew that He Yunye would accept him with a smile on the surface, but would still stab him viciously behind his back.
When he thought up to this point, Yang Qing was so infuriated that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. This was the first time in his life that he'd been played so ruthlessly by someone, and he couldn't do anything about it. Otherwise, he would've burned He Yunye's bones and scattered his ashes!
"Let the Spirit Eagle send a message to summon the young miss back," Qing Ju said anxiously.
"It's too late!" Qing Mei shook her head, "In terms of speed, a spirit eagle might not necessarily be faster than a dragon steed. The only difference in speed between the two is that spirit eagles are able to fly in a straight line regardless of the terrain. When the young miss sent out the emergency report, she had already set off. By the time our report reached the young miss, I'm afraid she would have already fallen into a trap."
Qing Ju became even more anxious. "Then we can't just watch Young Miss throw her life away, right? Since they want to surround us and attack the reinforcements, they won't be in a hurry to kill Miss. Otherwise, Miss will be useless as a bait. If we rush over now, we might be able to save Miss! "
Qing Mei pursed her lips and looked at Yang Qing. The way she saw it, the safest way was to not save Qin Weiwei, and to preserve their strength before taking revenge. But could the Manor Head do that?
Of the two maids, Qing Mei was reserved and calm, while Qing Ju was a little more impatient.
Yang Qing closed his eyes and raised his head. His lips were tightly pursed and his face was filled with helplessness.
Even though he had already guessed that the other party might have a backup plan, the other party had really targeted his weakness this time.
If he didn't even try to save his adopted daughter … At this time, he, who had already carried the infamy of being a slave of three surnames, would really disappoint his subordinates. Faced with the continuation of this dangerous situation, the consequences would be even more unpredictable. Perhaps no one would follow him to risk their lives. This was probably the reason why they had targeted Qin Weiwei.
What's more, what outsiders didn't know was that Qin Weiwei was actually his biological daughter.
If he didn't have to worry about internal and external troubles, he would have already consolidated South Edict Manor into an iron bucket. If it wasn't for the fact that his own daughter was in danger, he would have been able to act decisively. He could sacrifice Qin Weiwei, but now was not the time. The hearts of people were too important, and there was no time to slowly reorganize them.
It could be said that his opponent's scheme had hit him where it hurt. He could only be led by the nose.
"There is still hope if we give it our all. If we don't, then there will be no hope at all. Pass down my decree..." Yang Qing abruptly opened his eyes, and decisively issued an order that was almost identical to Qin Weiwei's. He ordered the troops of every division to rush to East Arrival Cave and meet up with him.
Soon, spirit eagles after spirit eagles hurriedly flew to the various mountains of South Edict Manor to relay the order. As well as requesting reinforcements from the School of Blue Jade.
After reorganizing his troops, Yang Qing was clad in silver armor as he rode his dragon steed to and fro on the plaza outside South Edict Grand Hall. With a majestic wave of the silver spear in his hand, he turned around and personally led nearly a hundred riders away.
Even Qing Mei and Qing Ju had donned a sleeveless silver battle armor, wielding their spears as they followed Yang Qing closely.
The cultivation of these two handmaidens was even higher than that of an ordinary Mountain Chieftain. They had followed Yang Qing for many years, and under his careful nurturing, they both had a cultivation at White Lotus Seventh Grade. They were Yang Qing's absolute confidants, and also his beautiful sisters who slept by his side. Now that it was time for them to put their lives on the line, the two of them naturally vowed to follow Yang Qing with their lives.
The entire South Edict Manor could be said to be empty, except for the two who were left to guard the mountain gates...
It was past noon, and birds were chirping in the empty mountains. Between the heavens and the earth, the lush greenery lingered.
Under the shade of a tree, Meng Yide sat expressionlessly on his dragon steed with his eyes closed. He suddenly opened his eyes, and saw a dragon steed galloping towards him from afar.
Arriving at the designated location, Chen Fei jumped off his dragon steed, and cupped his fists towards Meng Yide as he reported, "Your subordinate has already scouted the surroundings of East Arrival Cave. The entire East Arrival Cave is not on guard!"
Meng Yide nodded, "Good! I will assign three more men to you. Scout again! "
Just in case, he had to be careful.
"Yes!" Chen Fei cupped his fists and turned around. He leapt onto his dragon steed, and galloped away with the three others.
Meng Yide's dragon steed turned around, and faced the crowd. "I believe everyone should already understand the purpose of this trip. Yuan Zhengkun!"
"Your subordinate is here!" Yuan Zhengkun urged his steed forward and cupped his fists. On the surface, he appeared to be obedient, but in his heart, he felt a little sick of it, because both their cultivations were about the same.
"I heard that you were defeated by Qin Weiwei back then?" Meng Yide asked.
"I am ashamed!" Yuan Zhengkun smiled bitterly, "If Yang Qing hadn't personally arrived at that time, I would have captured that bitch Qin Weiwei long ago."
After he had sought refuge at Ever Peace Manor, he naturally wouldn't say that he had made his subordinate a scapegoat, and that he had escaped without even crossing swords with Qin Weiwei.
He would say whatever he wanted. He had lost no matter what, and no one in Ever Peace Manor would bother to care about whether it was true or not. He, Yuan Zhengkun, wasn't some great figure, so he had to make everyone understand.
Meng Yide nodded, "I am willing to give you an army. If you meet Qin Weiwei again, do you dare to fight her?"
Yuan Zhengkun's heart tightened. 'You only have so few men. Giving me an army is, at most, the manpower of a cave. Qin Weiwei is now a Mountain Chieftain. I'm not afraid of fighting her one-on-one, but I'm afraid of her numbers.'
Having accompanied him for so many years, Li Xin understood him too well. He knew what he was worried about, and immediately transmitted his voice, "Cave Master, Ever Peace Manor has come prepared. There must be more than just these people, and they must have made preparations as a backup. Otherwise, they wouldn't have acted so recklessly. Without any worries, we should seize the opportunity to make a contribution!"
These words were true! Yuan Zhengkun's spirit was instantly roused, and he cupped his fists towards Meng Yide, "That Qin Weiwei is rather good-looking, and I've heard that she has yet to lose her virginity. If Cave Master doesn't mind, I am willing to capture that bitch for Cave Master, and let her enjoy the pleasures of Cave Master's crotch!"
Hearing these words, Meng Yide's expressionless face couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile.
His subordinates couldn't help but laugh heartily. Many of them laughed in a somewhat vulgar manner.
Meng Yide nodded, "Very well! I await your good news! "
"I will not disappoint Cave Master!" Yuan Zhengkun cupped his fists, brimming with confidence...
Inside the grand hall of Ever Peace Manor, Zhang Decheng and Wan Shunchang were looking at a map, discussing and supplementing the details.
Someone hurriedly ran in from outside the hall, and handed over a jade archive. Zhang Decheng accepted it and glanced at it. He immediately laughed heartily, "Brother Wan is indeed clever. Yang Qing has already fallen into our trap!"
"Yang Qing found out about the news so quickly?" Wan Shunchang was somewhat surprised.
He hadn't expected that Qin Weiwei would discover Emerald Forest Cave's movements in time, and send news to Yang Qing ahead of time. After all, no one could predict everything perfectly.
However, it wouldn't affect the overall situation, and they would still proceed according to the plan. He immediately laughed, "Once Yang Qing makes his move, we won't have to worry about being exposed on our side. It's not good for me to show my face in public with my current identity, so I'll leave the rest to Brother Zhang. I wish Brother Zhang success in your first move! "
The two of them put their arms together, and laughed heartily together. They were good brothers, and there was no need to stand on ceremony.
When he was done laughing, Zhang Decheng abruptly turned around, and ordered with a sinister grin, "Pass down my orders. Proceed according to plan!"
Not long after, Zhang Decheng, clad in battle armor, personally led the troops of his headquarters and set off at high speed.
Within the realm of Mount Calming Sea, Qin Weiwei had also put on a helmet, and draped a battle armor over her upper body. These were all purchased for her by Yang Qing after he obtained a greater amount of resources in his hands.
It must be known that after reaching the position of Manor Head, not only would he be able to obtain more Orbs of Will, the range of resources he could collect would also be wider. He had so many followers under him, and among the followers, there was no lack of nobles and wealthy merchants who wanted to curry favor with the Immortals. There would always be unexpected ways to obtain some things to show their filial piety.
When Qin Weiwei came out, she only had the troops of her headquarters by her side. Now, however, more and more of them came. Along the way, she had already gathered the troops of two Caves that were rushing towards East Arrival Cave.
The troops of all the Caves in Mount Calming Sea were mobilized, and hurried towards East Arrival Cave from different locations.
The situation was the same for Yang Qing, who was rushing over without stopping. The troops by his side were increasing in number.
Following Yang Qing's movements, the troops of all the mountains in South Edict were also mobilized, and similarly hurried towards East Arrival Cave.
When Qin Weiwei's side moved, the troops of Mount Heavenly Grace, who were previously afraid of arousing Qin Weiwei's suspicions, also moved. The troops by Mountain Chieftain Duan Jirui's side were also gathering more and more, hurrying towards the predetermined location to assist Meng Yide in setting up an ambush. Their target was naturally Qin Weiwei.
All the mountains of Ever Peace Manor were also mobilized. Zhang Decheng personally led the troops of his headquarters and galloped all the way. The troops by his side were similarly increasing, but they had long since made preparations, so the speed at which they gathered was obviously faster.
After successfully luring Qin Weiwei out and widening the distance between her and Yang Qing, both sides were now fighting for a time gap based on distance, to see whose troops could gather faster and rush over, to see who would be able to seize the initiative with numbers.
Wan Shunchang's plan was to destroy the advantage of distance and time that Yang Qing was relying on in fighting on his own territory. Otherwise, no one would be willing to clash head on with Yang Qing. Zhang Decheng wasn't an idiot, he wouldn't risk his own hard-earned capital and suffer heavy losses for the sake of someone else's greater interests. Even if he won that way, it would be meaningless.
In short, all the troops of Ever Peace Manor and South Edict Manor were hurrying in the direction of East Arrival Cave.
At this moment, the tiny East Arrival Cave had become a thorn in the sides of the two Manors. It was unknown how the Great Cave Master Miao would feel after finding out that he didn't want Transient Light Cave and chose this place to be the Cave Master of his own accord. He would probably tremble in fear, and curse out loud, 'Who did I offend?'
From Qin Weiwei's point of view, she would probably hate Miao Yi, who had rendered East Arrival Cave useless. She probably wanted nothing more than to skin him alive.
But from Miao Yi's point of view, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing for him to lead his troops away.
It had to be known that East Arrival Cave was about to become the beginning of the struggle between the two Manors. Whether Miao Yi was here or not, it wouldn't change the decision of the higher-ups. What's more, Wan Shunchang didn't know that the East Arrival Cave Master had led his troops away. Their plans had originally included the troops of East Arrival Cave, and they were meant to be killed.
