Attack
Just as Ye Fei was listening to a group of people discussing a sneak attack on the mine.
Inside the only palace of the Starry Stronghold.
A young woman was talking to an old man. The old man's strength was very powerful, at the sixth layer of Wu Jun, and was a master on the same level as Elder Niu.
But the young woman's cultivation level was also very terrifying. Like the old man, she was also at the sixth layer of Wu Jun. At the same time, Ye Fei had already heard that the leader of the Starry Stronghold was a woman called Zhao Shinian.
And now the person talking to Zhao Shinian was the great elder of the Starry Stronghold, Tang Wen, who was also Zhao Shinian's most trusted person. Whenever there was a major event in the stronghold, it was discussed by Zhao Shinian and Tang Wen before it was carried out. This attack on the mine was the same.
"Elder Tang, do you think the news we got this time is true or false?" Zhao Shinian was very respectful to Elder Tang.
Because Elder Tang was her mother's family, and when her mother died of illness, it was Elder Tang who had been taking care of her. So in private, Zhao Shinian had always treated Elder Tang as an elder.
Hearing Zhao Shinian's question, Tang Wen did not answer, but pondered for a moment before affirming: "Miss, I have an eighty percent chance that the news is true. After all, for this plan, we have several brothers who were deliberately caught and sent to the mine to work as coolies."
"Only eighty percent? That is to say, there is a twenty percent chance that it is a trap. I heard that the last time a vein of the Zheng family's mine accidentally collapsed, and most of the coolies inside took the opportunity to escape. Now is the time when they are most lacking in manpower, it is inevitable that they did not deliberately release bait to enter the sea of stars and wantonly capture us. "Zhao Shinian said worriedly.
"Then Miss suspects that the Zheng family deliberately lured our main force out, and then enter the sea of stars to capture the loose cultivators? That's unlikely, even if we leave, Gou Yidao's Starry Stronghold is still there, they will not easily let the Zheng family in. "Tang Wen said with some hesitation.
Zhao Shinian shook her head, saying in a low voice: "That's hard to say! Recently, Gou Yidao has been in contact with outside forces, and then many rogue cultivators who have left the island will suddenly disappear. I suspect that Gou Yidao might be secretly capturing rogue cultivators and selling them as laborers! "
"What? Gou Yidao is also a loose cultivator leader. How could he do such a thing?" Tang Wen was incomparably shocked.
Zhao Shinian shook her head with a wry smile: "People die for money! Gou Yidao was greedy by nature, so it was not strange for him to do this kind of thing. Right now, I'm just worried that once I leave with the main force, Gou Yidao might join forces with outsiders and take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on our Stellar Stronghold! "
"Then Eldest Miss, let's not participate in this attack. We'll stay here and see if Gou Yidao dares to attack," Tang Wen said with a murderous look on his face.
Zhao Shinian was also somewhat tempted, but in the end she still shook her head. "We don't have many cultivation resources left, just selling the Spirit grains is not enough for us to cultivate. How about this? I'll only bring a small portion of the elites this time. Elder Tang, you can summon the rest back to the main island and wait for my return. "
"Then dare I ask Eldest Miss, how many Wu Jun do you plan to bring out this time?" Tang Wen asked again.
"Including me and the people that Elder Liu has gathered, the number of people is no more than ten. This time I plan to end the battle quickly, and immediately come back. I will not give Gou Yidao a chance to launch a sneak attack on us. So I can only trouble Elder Tang and the other elders to stay and defend."
When Zhao Shinian finished speaking, she carried a heavy sword that was several meters long and energetically walked out. She still had a lot of trust in Elder Tang.
So she did not notice that when she turned around, Elder Tang had a complicated look on his face, like he was struggling, but also like he was ashamed.
Finally, Elder Tang seemed to have thought of something, his eyes became firm again. At the same time Zhao Shinian left, Elder Tang looked at Zhao Shinian's departing back with a complicated expression. "Eldest Miss, don't blame me, I have already paid back what I owed your mother. Now, it's time to think about myself."
Swoosh!
A communication talisman was crushed by Elder Tang, disappearing into the dark sky.
… …
At this time, Ye Fei had just finished listening to Elder Liu and the others discuss the plan. He was very surprised. He thought that for this sneak attack, the Star Cluster stronghold would muster a large force, like the bandits of the later generations, and gather three to five hundred minions.
As for these Martial Lords, they were the leaders of the mountain.
But the result was completely different. After discussing for a long time, Ye Fei gloomily discovered that for this sneak attack, there would only be Elder Liu, One-eyed, the seven titled Wu Jun, and himself who had just joined.
At the very most, there would only be eight people!
And they had to set off now, in case someone changed their mind midway or leaked the news.
Ye Fei somewhat speechlessly asked One-eyed in a low voice, "Brother One-eyed, how many people are we going to attack the mine, isn't it a little too little?"
"What's there to be too little, don't forget, we are all Wu Jun masters! As long as there is no powerful Wu Jun in the mine, the eight of us will be able to defeat them. Even if there is a powerful warrior in the mine, the chief will take care of him in person, "One-eyed comforted Ye Fei in a low voice.
He thought Ye Fei was nervous because it was his first time doing something like this. But what worried Ye Fei the most was that One-eyed and the others were too weak. On the off chance that there was a powerful Wu Jun in the mine, One-eyed and the others might not be able to stop him. If that happened, it would be bad for Ye Fei to expose his strength.
At the moment, Ye Fei could only hope that the female chief hiding in the dark would be strong enough.
Elder Liu turned around and said coldly, "Don't talk. Go through the entrance. Without my order, you are not allowed to attack or make a sound. Don't blame me for being merciless to anyone who dares to mess things up!" Clearly, he was talking to Ye Fei.
One-eyed and the others were all veterans, so they naturally knew these rules. When Elder Liu opened the Realm Entrance, they quickly walked in silently.
Ye Fei nodded silently. It seemed that Wu Jun of the Stellar Stockade had made ample preparations for this attack. With the entrance, they could take the enemy by surprise to the greatest extent.
"Brother Ye, look. That island was once an abandoned spirit mine from ancient times. Although it has been abandoned, if you dig carefully, you can still dig out a lot of spirit stones!"
Behind the entrance, One-eyed pointed at the black island in the distance and transmitted his voice to Ye Fei. The other Wu Jun didn't say anything, but their eyes flashed with desire as they stared at the island.
Ye Fei couldn't help but be surprised.
He had thought that the mine was some kind of resource mine, but he didn't expect it to be a spirit stone mine. Even if it was abandoned in ancient times, it was still very impressive.
Not to mention that one could still dig out some spirit stones, but in terms of production, it couldn't be compared to the ancient times.
"I finally know where the large amount of spirit stones in the outer sea came from. It turns out that there are still some spirit mines left from ancient times. This is a good chance for me to get some spirit stones."
