The day was exceptionally long. Fortunately, the sky still turned dark in the end.
Rumble!
A group of nearly five hundred people majestically rushed towards the Dragon Gazing Mountain from afar. The impatient sounds of rushing caused the ground to tremble.
In the middle of the procession was a carriage pulled by a high-rank spirit beast. Escorted by the rest of the procession, it sped forward.
They moved quickly, entering the small path sandwiched between Mount Wanglong and the opposite mountain in no time!
"Slow down and be on guard!"
A deep voice boomed from the middle of the procession, spreading throughout the valley. The long queue that was originally moving forward at high speed also immediately slowed down.
"Steward Long, why are we slowing down?"
A delicate-looking young man poked his head out of the carriage and asked the old man beside him with a frown.
The old man at the side, who was called Manager Long by the young man, immediately turned his head after hearing the question and replied respectfully, "Young Master, the terrain of the Gazing Dragon Mountain is steep and very suitable for an ambush. Our trip is of great importance, so we must be careful. "
The young man was Lin Dongpeng, the eldest son of House Donglin. His expression relaxed a little at Steward Long's reply. Immediately, he raised his head and looked around, then said, "Although we are in a hurry, we must not spoil the important matter because of impatience. Be careful! Let's speed up after we leave the valley! "
Steward Long straightened his face. "Yes, young master! For safety's sake, please return to the carriage. There's a formation protecting this place, so it'll be much safer. "
Lin Dongpeng nodded slightly, then retracted his head back into the carriage.
The procession continued forward and soon reached the center of the valley!
"Hahaha!"
Suddenly, a burst of loud laughter rang out from the valley. Powerful spirit energy wrapped within the laughter transformed into sound waves that spread throughout the valley.
In the enclosed valley, the sound wave attack was amplified. Many of the weaker members of the Donglin procession had their heart meridians shattered by the laughter and collapsed to the ground, dead!
Steward Long frowned, but didn't panic. He shouted, "Don't panic! Form into a defensive formation and move to the center to protect the young master! "
His voice was also wrapped with Spiritual Energy, which directly dissolved the sound wave attack formed by the laughter!
Every member of House Donglin's team was well-trained. Though they'd panicked at first, they quickly steadied themselves after hearing Steward Long's command. They moved closer to the center and formed a defensive formation, trapping Lin Dongpeng in the middle.
At this time, Steward Long shouted again, "Which scoundrel are you hiding? Quickly show yourself!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a masked man in black robes flew out from the darkness and stood in front of the group.
After Steward Long carefully sized up the person who had come, his brows instantly furrowed. "Who are you? Why are you attacking us?"
The man in black laughed and said, "I stopped you, so naturally I want your lives!"
Steward Long frowned. "House Donglin of Fivewoods City has never liked fighting with others. Apart from the enemies of the other four families, there are no other enemies. May I know who ordered you to kill us? "
The man in black roared with laughter. "Still trying to get information out of me when you're at death's door? If you want to know the answer so badly, I'll tell you when you're dead! "
"Then I'd like to see how you're going to kill me!"
Steward Long flew into a rage. With a flip of his wrist, a fiery red dragon-headed broadsword appeared in his hand. In a flash, he leaped into the air and attacked the man in black!
"Come at me!"
Instead of retreating, the man in black advanced. He drew a longsword and flew into the air to fight Steward Long!
For a moment, spiritual power exploded in the air, and sparks burst out from the clash of swords and sabers. They were like stars falling from the sky, constantly falling to the ground!
"Kill!"
At this time, battle cries rang out from all around the valley. Countless black-clad cultivators charged out from all directions like raindrops, weapons gleaming in their hands. They attacked the Donglin team!
House Donglin's cultivators weren't to be trifled with. They didn't panic when they saw the enemy. Maintaining the same formation, they clashed with the enemy!
It had to be said that Lin Dongpeng's group this time could be considered the elites of the family. They didn't panic in the slightest in the face of the enemy. Even if they died, they'd fight to the death with their enemies!
Unfortunately, no matter how strong they were, the enemy wouldn't let them go so easily after meticulous preparation. They'd sent out their elites, and in great numbers!
Soon, the defensive circle they'd formed began to shrink. The group of men in black who had launched a sneak attack were also moving at a steady speed towards the beast carriage in the middle.
"Young master!"
Steward Long, who'd been fighting the man in black, panicked when he saw that Lin Dongpeng was about to fall into danger. He clapped his hands and sent out a surge of spiritual energy, ready to go back to help.
But at this moment, the man in black nimbly dodged his attack. He rubbed his hands together and a large blade formed from spiritual energy appeared in the air.
The broadsword flashed and reappeared behind Steward Long's back, slashing down!
Peng!
Caught off guard, Steward Long was hit in the back by the broadsword made of spiritual energy. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell heavily to the ground!
"Hehe!"
The black-clothed man laughed coldly and said, "Surnamed Long, you and I are on par with each other. If you'd focused on fighting me, I wouldn't have been able to hurt you in a short time! It's a pity that since you're so concerned about your young master, you can only go to hell with him! "
Finishing his words, he flipped both of his palms and the surging Spiritual Energy instantly turned into a small mountain. Without any mercy, it pressed down on General Manager Long!
Supervisor Long's expression changed greatly. He immediately took out a talisman and activated it. A khaki light shield tightly protected his body!
Peng!
The small mountain of Spiritual Energy brought along a dense pressure as it collided with the earthen-yellow light shield. In an instant, the entire ground caved in!
Puff!
Steward Long spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned pale. The yellow light shield wrapped around his body was directly smashed into pieces by the small mountain!
Fortunately, after the defense talisman, the opponent's attack had been weakened to the limit. Otherwise, he would've been seriously injured.
