The cliffs on the east side of the North Mountain were filled with pine trees. These pine trees were covered with sharp thorns that ordinary people would not be able to grasp with their bare hands. This also made the cliffs unclimbable, so the Tian Jing Mercenary Group naturally would not send troops to guard this area.
"Swoosh swoosh …"
Lin Muyu opened her palm and her five fingers were enshrouded with a faint aura, directly smoothing out the sharp thorns on the pine trees. With a "sou" sound, she leapt several meters up the mountain wall. She raised her hand and stabbed the Prairie Burning Sword into the rocks, borrowing the force to leap several meters up. She opened her hand and grabbed onto the roots of another pine tree, quickly smoothing out the thorns with her aura. In an instant, the faint scent of pine tree sap filled the air.
He lowered his head and looked down. The cliffs were about 200 meters in total. Luo Yu, Long Yan, and Fang Xin followed at a slightly slower speed. Among them, Fang Xin, who had the lowest cultivation, was the slowest. He was only at the second level of the Earth Realm at level 41, but as a Jin Zun Ranger, he had no choice but to carry out this mission. He wore steel gloves, but the pine needles still pierced him until he was dripping with blood.
After waiting for a while, Lin Muyu leapt up once again. Her entire body was as agile as an old ape, and after a few leaps, she had already reached the mountainside. After waiting for another five minutes, Luo Yu, Long Yan, and Fang Xin finally reached the top of the mountain. The four of them hid in the underbrush. From afar, they could see that there were at least 500 Tian Jing Mercenary Group soldiers moving about on the stone fort.
Luo Yu muttered to herself and said, "Lin Yan, Long Yan, the two of you charge up the fort and attract their attention. Fang Xin and I will quietly sneak in and open the stone door."
Lin Muyu nodded, "Okay!"
With a "dang" sound, she pulled out the Prairie Fire Sword and rushed forward with Long Yan. Lin Muyu silently used the Falling Star Steps and ran as if she was flying. Long Yan could not keep up and hurriedly said, "Sir Lin Yan, slow down!"
Lin Muyu didn't slow down. Instead, she sped up and leaped onto the walls of the Stone Fortress. She swung her sword at a few mercenaries who were moving boulders, killing them all amidst screams. Her actions quickly attracted the attention of many people. One of the mercenary leaders, who was a centurion, shouted, "There's a Ranger sneaking up the mountain. Damn it, kill him!"
A large group of people rushed over, but Lin Muyu secretly laughed. These mercenaries were too weak. She quickly turned around, and the Life Star Constellation circled around her left fist. The blood-colored cyclone rotated crazily, and she suddenly punched downwards!
"Bang!"
Cracks actually appeared on the thick tongue-shaped ground. The power of the One Bright Life Star Constellation surged out with a shockwave, causing a group of mercenaries to fall back. At this time, two figures quickly rushed into the city. It was Luo Yu and Fang Xin.
"I'll go and open the door. You block it." Luo Yu went straight for the stone door.
Fang Xin quickly turned around and swung his sword, killing five people in a row. However, the mercenaries in the city also raised their bows and arrows, and arrows fell like rain. At first, Fang Xin could still rely on his sword to block, but the arrows were too concentrated. "Pu pu pu" sounds rang out as the arrows continuously pierced through his chest armor, arms, and legs. In the blink of an eye, his entire body was dyed red with blood.
With a muffled groan, Fang Xin knelt on the ground. A group of mercenaries surrounded him, and spears continuously pierced through his body. Blood and flesh splattered everywhere. Within a few seconds, Fang Xin, the Jin Zun Ranger, was minced into minced meat. Even his limbs and face were no longer recognizable. All that was left was a pile of minced meat and broken armor.
Lin Muyu couldn't bear to see this. With a wave of the sword in her hand, another wave of sword qi forced a group of mercenaries to retreat. "Whoosh, whoosh." Below, the archers started shooting randomly at Fang Xin. However, Lin Muyu wasn't Fang Xin. With a low shout, the Gourd Wall condensed around her body, and the Black Tortoise Shell + Dragon Scale Wall blocked all the arrows. Long Yan, who was watching from afar, was dumbfounded. He was the first person in the House of Chivalry to see Lin Muyu's Green Gourd Martial Spirit. Moreover, Long Yan had seen a tenth-grade Green Gourd Martial Spirit before. It was the kind of weak Martial Spirit that could be defeated in one hit. The gourd condensed by Lin Muyu was practically indestructible.
"Boom!"
The stone door suddenly collapsed. Luo Yu had succeeded!
"Kill your way in!"
Outside the stronghold, the rangers swarmed in. After entering, they killed anyone they saw. Each of their eyes were bloodshot, and they didn't care about the captives.
In the blink of an eye, the stone stronghold had fallen. Inside and outside, there were corpses everywhere. The Tian Jing Mercenary Group was defeated like a collapsing mountain. The only barrier on the mountainside was easily lost.
"The Tian Jing Mercenary Group is finished!" Long Yan's face was filled with excitement. In his hand was a head. It was the head of a mercenary centurion. He was probably going to take it to ask for a reward.
Lin Muyu lightly jumped down. Her gaze landed on the pile of flesh on the ground. She said, "Lord Fang Xin is dead."
The corner of Long Yan's mouth raised. "It's good that he's dead. He doesn't have to endure so much pain and choices in the world."
Lin Muyu glanced at him. "Then why didn't you die?"
Long Yan laughed. "I have a long life. I can't bear to give up so many beautiful things in the world. Haha …"
Luo Yu's expression was stern. "Gather the troops and prepare to attack the headquarters of the Tian Jing Mercenary Group. We must find the location of the Flowing Gold Palace!"
"Yes!"
… …
A group of Silver, Bronze, and Iron Rangers raised their swords and roared as they charged up the mountain. Their eyes were not filled with the desire to fight the strong and help the weak. Instead, they were filled with a crazed desire.
Lin Muyu used the Falling Star Steps and walked beside Luo Yu. She asked, "What kind of place is the Flowing Gold Palace?"
Luo Yu said indifferently, "It is said that the master of the Tian Jing Mercenary Group, Jiang Fenglie, who has the title of 'Frenzied Blade', has been entrenched in the northern mountain for many years. He has plundered the citizens and the government offices of small cities. He has hoarded a large amount of gold, silver, and jewels in the northern mountain. He has also built a storage place for these treasures. It is called the Flowing Gold Palace. Before I left, the Great Envoy specifically told me to bring the Flowing Gold Palace back to the headquarters after taking down the northern mountain."
Lin Muyu couldn't help but smile. "We are attacking the Tian Jing Mercenary Group for the gold, right?"
Luo Yu smiled helplessly. "What else?"
… …
Suddenly, there was a sound of fighting in front of them. When they were close to the top of the mountain, they encountered another counterattack from the mercenary group. About 200 heavy-armored mercenaries rode down from the mountain, each of them holding a heavy spear in their hands. Judging from their aura, they were almost all experts in the Human Realm.
"Pfft, pfft, pfft …"
The heavy cavalry charged forward in a phalanx formation, piercing their spears into the bodies of the Venerables and Unaffiliated Warriors who were dressed in plain clothes, killing them like skewers of candied haws. As the warhorses trampled on them, many Unaffiliated Warriors were trampled to death.
Lin Muyu watched from the side. He was indifferent. He didn't plan to make a move. This was an unjust battle. He didn't have a side at all.
However, Long Yan and Luo Yu still charged forward with their weapons. They roared and used their cultivation to suppress the heavy armored cavalry. A group of Silver Venerable and Bronze Venerable Rangers also pounced forward. They used ingenious sword and saber techniques to destroy the heavy armored cavalry's defense. Swords pierced their throats and sabers slashed their necks. After losing a portion of their forces, the 200 heavy armored cavalry were all turned into corpses on the mountain peak.
Further ahead, a military camp stood in front of them. There were two large words written on it — Tian Jing Mercenary Group.
Unfortunately, the Tian Jing Mercenary Group's 5,000 + troops had already been wiped out. How could they resist the attack of the House of Chivalry? After the archers on the watchtowers were shot dead, the entire camp was lost. A large number of rangers charged into the camp.
Luo Yu carried her long sword and ran. She shouted, "Archers, follow me. We are looking for Jiang Fenglie. If he's alive, we want to see him. If he's dead, we want to see his corpse!"
"The Golden Palace is in the north. Follow me!"
Long Yan laughed loudly. He led a dozen Bronze Venerable Rangers and rushed over.
Lin Muyu was at the back of the group, riding his horse. His face was gloomy, this battle was extremely boring to him.
…
"Oh no, Lord Long Yan has been killed!" Not long after, a shocking voice rang out. Long Yan had died in battle?!
Lin Muyu hurriedly got up and mounted her horse. She raised her Burning Prairie Sword and shouted, "Where is Long Yan? Lead the way!"
Luo Yu raised her long sword and said hatefully, "It must be Jiang Fenglie. He's hiding in the Golden Palace. Damn it, why didn't I think of him?!"
A few minutes later, they arrived at the Golden Palace. In fact, the Golden Palace was just a cellar made of white walls and black tiles. The real treasures were all in the cellar. At this time, a group of rangers were surrounding a person and fighting. The person in the center was wearing black armor and holding two swords. He moved like the wind and the arcs of the blades were very beautiful. In the blink of an eye, several Venerable Realm rangers died under his blade.
Lin Muyu looked from afar. Long Yan's corpse was lying in front of the Golden Palace's gate. Half of his shoulder had been chopped off.
Long Yan's death did not make Lin Muyu happy or sad. Long Yan had fought for Jin Ying Coins and a woman. His death was not to be regretted. However, Long Yan, a Level 45 Earth Realm Second Sky, was killed so quickly. This Jiang Fenglie was indeed not ordinary.
…
"Come on, I'm going to kill all of you!"
Jiang Fenglie spun his sword and cut off the head of a Bronze Venerable Ranger. His face was full of rage as he laughed loudly, "You despicable rangers, I will kill you all. After I kill you all, I will kill your families and rape your wives and daughters. I will make them wish they were dead. Come, come, let me kill you all!"
He had already gone crazy. His body was covered in blood and his sword was covered in battle energy.
He was a Sky Realm First Sky powerhouse. Unfortunately, although he was strong, how many people could he kill? Moreover, everyone had a limited amount of battle energy. Every slash was a form of consumption. Jiang Fenglie killed nearly 50 rangers in the blink of an eye. However, his face was getting paler and paler. The battle energy on his sword was much weaker than before.
Luo Yu did not dare to step forward because of the difference in strength. She only lowered her voice and said, "Master Lin Yan, if you want to make a contribution, this is a great opportunity."
Lin Muyu understood. Since she was a spy, if she did not show some sincerity, how could Ji Yang trust her?
Thinking of this, the battle energy in her body increased rapidly. She leaped from the horse and punched with her left fist. Celestial bodies of all living beings circled around her fist.
"Huh?!"
Jiang Fenglie suddenly turned around and saw a handsome ranger's fist coming at him. He did not have time to dodge and hurriedly used the two swords in front of his chest to block.
"Peng!"
Three Luminaries Calamity!
The two swords quickly collapsed, but the fist still landed firmly on Jiang Fenglie's chest. Accompanied by the sound of bones breaking, Lin Muyu's right hand rushed forward like lightning. The Burning Prairie Sword pierced through Jiang Fenglie's heart. He was just a trophy. The greatest mercy to him was to grant him a clean death!
