Just as Gu Zheng entered the hall and was looking at the things that belonged to him.
Outside, Lord Jin and Ma Nan had already appeared in mid-air, looking down at the ground that had already sunk into a sea of fire.
The entire city was in an uproar. Countless Demonic Souls appeared from various places and converged in an orderly manner in this place.
"What's going on?"
Xi Xian, who was chatting with the others, also heard the huge commotion outside. He could even see the scene of flames soaring into the sky.
The people who were talking to him didn't know either. They just looked up into the distance. Even the others came out of their houses and asked each other about what was going on.
"Bang!"
The door outside was immediately smashed open, and a large group of Demonic Souls continuously walked in from the outside, quickly forming a small encirclement.
"Call all your people out. See if there's anyone missing!" The Monster Souls stationed here reacted very quickly. They immediately rushed in and shouted at these people.
Together with the Monster Souls behind them, if they made any move, they would probably kill them without saying a word.
"Don't panic. Come out quickly and gather. See if there's anyone missing."
Everyone, including Xi Xian, began to shout. All the people in the houses came out one after another and stood behind their respective team leaders. Soon, they finished gathering.
"What's going on?"
Gu Zheng and Xiao Hou also gathered quickly. Only then did he look at Xiao Hou with some doubts.
"How would I know? We're all together. Let's wait and see." Xiao Hou spread out his hands and was also puzzled. He also didn't know what was going on.
However, seeing the nervous look of these Monster Souls, he was afraid that the explosion outside might really have caused something.
"Everyone's here."
After the team leaders found out, they all heaved a sigh of relief and said one after another.
Three Monster Souls came from the opposite side and began to check on themselves.
They only had these people. Soon, they checked once and retreated.
Indeed, no one was missing, and no one was missing. The leader of the Monster Souls also relaxed a lot and continued to say.
"There's something outside. You guys stay here. Is there any problem?"
"No, no."
The team leaders shook their heads. At this time, if there was a problem, it would mean that they didn't want to die quickly.
Although they could only stay here, the other party didn't forbid them from talking. Everyone started guessing what was going on. However, no one knew the answer. They were just making wild guesses.
Even Gu Zheng and Little Hou changed the topic, discussing this with the people around them. However, they gave Mo You, who was behind them, a secret look, causing the latter to suddenly shiver. He lowered his head, no longer staring at them.
In the sky, the two of them looked around. After confirming that there were no other traps, Ma Nan knew that it was time for her to act.
"Milord, they still haven't left. I'll go and see who it is that is so daring," Ma Nan immediately said when she saw Lord Jin's ashen face.
He was absolutely sure that this person was not one of them. After all, anyone who dared to enter this place without a certain level of cultivation was courting death.
Even though this place seemed empty and devoid of anything, it was actually still guarded. It was just that it couldn't be seen on the surface.
This was truly a Jin Xian at the peak of his strength. He was captured halfway through. Furthermore, that place was even more heavily guarded. Without the strength of a Grand Heavenly Realm, it was impossible to break through.
As for Lord Jin's attitude just now, it was just a warning to let him know that no matter what, he had to know his own position. He naturally knew the meaning behind it. He wasn't a fool. He immediately requested to fight.
Even though Ma Nan's cultivation wasn't weaker than Lord Jin, he still requested with the attitude of a subordinate. Since Lord Jin didn't say anything, he maintained his posture and waited for Lord Jin's order.
Indeed, Lord Jin's face looked much better as he spoke.
"The place below isn't important to us. It's just some things that were transferred here. Originally, we were waiting for you to complete the transaction before handing them over. You have to be careful. The person who came here doesn't have good intentions."
"Don't worry, Lord Jin. I know what to do."
At this moment, Ma Nan didn't care about his body. Even if his body couldn't engage in an intense battle, he had to go up and check it out. As he descended, he quickly dived into the flames below.
The flames were restrained in one area and didn't spread to other places. A black figure was controlling the flames in a corner below. When he saw Ma Nan going down, he lifted his head and looked at Lord Jin.
Lord Jin gestured with his arm, telling Ma Nan to stay there and wait for an opportunity to come up. However, his eyes were fixed on the ground below.
The flames weren't powerful, but it isolated the outside from prying eyes. No one knew what was going on inside.
After Ma Nan went down, there was still no movement below. He wasn't in a hurry. He even waved the surrounding troops back and told them to stay outside. The other party wasn't someone they could stop. Come out and cause trouble.
After a while, the flames inside began to fall abruptly and disappeared completely within a few breaths. At the same time, a black-clothed figure quickly rose from below. Ma Nan's figure followed closely behind and yelled loudly.
"You thief, hurry up and capture him. Otherwise, you will suffer torture worse than death."
However, the person in front of her didn't care about such a retarded threat. She turned around, bypassed Lord Jin, and ran in another direction.
However, before she could make a detour, another black shadow had already soared into the sky, blocking her path.
With this delay, Ma Nan and Lord Jin had surrounded the other party in a triangle.
"Lord Jin, many things in the warehouse are gone. She must have taken them." Ma Nan yelled at Lord Jin from inside.
"Seems like your identity is obvious. You ambushed my soul species' transport team and now you dare to come here. You really don't know what's good for you." Lord Jin snorted and took out his weapon and slowly pressed forward.
Combined with the stolen items below, it didn't take much to know that it was the group from before. They were also his target this time. One had to know how many years it had been since anyone dared to provoke them. This caused the higher-ups to be very shocked. Not much time had passed and the large army had arrived.
If it wasn't for the battle with Gu Cheng and the matter with Soul Alliance, the army would have been even larger.
However, after knowing the other party's information, they definitely had enough people to uproot the other party and leave nothing behind. Those who dared to challenge them had to think of the tragic end.
"Not knowing what's good for you. I feel like it should be you. You things that shouldn't appear in this world. Sooner or later, I will let you know what the wrath of a black dragon is."
A clear voice rang out in the air. Even so, the other party didn't panic at all. It was as if they had some great enmity. With a flip of his hand, a green longsword appeared in his hand.
"Lord Jin, the other party's weapon is a bit strange. It was brought from the outside and counters us." Ma Nan stepped back and transmitted to Lord Jin.
"Hmph, you sure talk big in this situation. Capture the other party, life or death." Lord Jin nodded and immediately said to the other party.
Before he finished speaking, he immediately pressed forward and began to forcefully compress the other party's space. Even if the city was on him and some of the shockwaves would be destroyed, he couldn't care less.
While the three of them were moving, the figure inside had already taken the initiative to attack.
Preemptive strike!
The weapon in her hand suddenly turned and a large amount of green light shot out from the weapon and scattered in all directions. Her entire body rushed towards Ma Nan, trying to open a gap in front. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to deal with the three of them. If this stalemate continued, she would lose in the end.
She knew that Ma Nan's situation wasn't right. He didn't want to fight with her down there. It seemed that he was only forcing her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to take so many things so smoothly.
"Lord Jin!"
Ma Nan looked at the enemy who seemed to be going all out and hurriedly shouted. He didn't even fight and retreated. This made the black clothed woman happy.
Lord Jin knew Ma Nan's situation and immediately sped up. With a flash, he appeared behind the black clothed woman and directly stabbed at her back.
The black clothed woman seemed to have seen his attack. She twisted her body in the air and dodged the attack range. Then, she stretched out the weapon in her hand and slashed to the side. She aimed at the subordinate who was defending himself.
That subordinate relied on his own defense. In addition, as long as he slightly restrained the other party, Lord Jin behind him would be enough to come up. At that time, it wouldn't be so easy for the other party to escape.
"Be careful!"
Seeing that the subordinate wanted to resist, Ma Nan immediately reminded him in a loud voice. But it seemed to be a little too late. The other party didn't know how powerful this weapon was. It was a level higher than their so-called soul tool.
If it was worth it, this weapon that had very little functionality in the outside world could only be considered good. But in here, it could be said to be equivalent to an innate spirit treasure.
"Ka ka"
The weapon in the subordinate's hand was actually cut in half at the moment of contact. The remaining force didn't even decrease and directly shattered the opponent's defense. If the opponent didn't retreat a little when he saw this, this attack would have cut through his abdomen.
Feeling the cold sharpness of the sword slashing across his face, he felt as if it had almost sliced him in half. Although he wouldn't die even if he was sliced in half, it still made him immediately raise his guard, and he felt some fear in his heart.
One had to know how strong the defense of his soul tool was. It was a soul tool that was born with him. But just now, he felt that it was useless against the other party's attack.
But at this time, Ma Nan threw something in the distance. It exploded in mid-air. The power wasn't great, but it successfully blocked the woman in black from breaking out.
When she turned slightly and wanted to leave in another direction, Lord Jin had already rushed up from behind. The short spear-like weapon in his hand directly swept towards the other party.
He wasn't afraid of colliding with the other party. His weapon wasn't as weak as his subordinate's. In fact, his weapon wasn't weak either. It was used before, but he didn't expect that it couldn't stop the other party.
His subordinate took the opportunity to take out his real weapon. With mild anger on his face, he surrounded the other party from the side, ready to pincer the other party with Lord Jin.
Seeing this, the woman in black could only deal with Lord Jin's attack first and then dodge the attack of the other party's subordinate. However, she was successfully stalled by them. It wasn't so easy to get away.
Even so, the black-clothed woman did not show any signs of fear. She waved her hand in the air and a layer of green mist floated out. In the blink of an eye, it formed a layer of green mist that enveloped the air. However, her figure could be seen clearly within it.
Lord Jin and his subordinates only felt as if they were in the sea. Their movements were slightly sluggish, but it didn't affect them too much. They continued to pounce forward.
In the thick mist, some of the green mist had quietly condensed into a rope. From the outside, it was impossible to see any trace of it. It was quietly approaching the other party.
The woman in black circled around from the side, looking as if she was focused on attacking Lord Jin.
Although Lord Jin didn't notice the green rope hidden below, he felt that something was wrong. Some of the black mist on the surface of his body was rotating. Even the green mist was pushed back a lot, so the green rope didn't directly come up and continued to hide.
However, just as they were about to come into contact with each other, a huge explosion suddenly occurred from the building below. Two fierce attacks rose up from below, attacking Lord Jin's back. In the blink of an eye, they arrived at a distance away from him, causing him to face a pincer attack from both sides.
His subordinates were only facing the attack from below.
"There are still enemies in hiding!"
Lord Jin suddenly had this thought. He directly threw his weapon to attack above him. He quickly turned around and waved his arm, smashing it directly against the attack below. His other hand blocked in front of him, and the vambrace on his hand quickly unfolded, forming a small black shield.
Originally, he was already prepared, but the attack that seemed to be extremely powerful was easily shattered by him as soon as it came into contact. Even his backup plan had been revealed, but the other party ended it just like that. This was out of his expectations, and he was a little stunned.
"The other party ran away!"
His subordinates were worried that the woman in black would sneak attack Lord Jin. They only slightly put up a defense and rushed behind Lord Jin.
But the woman in black didn't take the opportunity to attack. Instead, she took the opportunity to open up the distance. She put away her weapon and quickly fled outside. When Lord Jin turned his head to look, the other party's figure had disappeared into the distance.
He hesitated for a moment and didn't chase. Instead, he directly fell down.
If he chased, he could catch up. But now there was an enemy hiding inside. He had to be careful. If he was transferred away, there might be an uncontrollable situation here. That was why he didn't chase.
But when he came down, the room they were talking in was completely destroyed. More importantly, there were no traces of the enemy. Not even a trace of the other party's aura was left. He had no idea who did it.
Thinking about the attack from before, perhaps the other party had already run away. This was only to attract their attacks to cover the other party's escape. In the end, they were really worried that they had been tricked.
Perhaps they knew that they wouldn't dare to chase. Even if there was no one below, they couldn't chase. That was why they were fearless.
"Lord Jin, the jade is gone. It was taken by the other party. I'm sorry!" At this time, Ma Nan came from the side with an ugly expression and apologized to Lord Jin.
"The other party came with a premeditated plan. No one knew that we met. It can only be a coincidence. You don't have to apologize." Lord Jin took a deep breath and comforted Ma Nan.
Before they came here, they had already agreed to meet. Other than the two of them, no one else knew. Moreover, Ma Nan was definitely not a chess piece that Gu Cheng's people deliberately planted in them. They were absolutely sure of this. Of course, they had used some methods.
"That woman is the leader of the bandits. Although I haven't seen her before, when that weapon appeared, it immediately exposed her identity. That's for sure. Unless the other party gave the weapon to someone else, and it was someone equally powerful." Ma Nan put down the anger of having the jade stolen and said slowly.
"Then what's the matter with this ambush? Or is it that the other party has always been here, but just didn't show up? "Lord Jin also had a headache. He didn't expect that something unexpected would happen at this time.
Naturally, they knew about that weapon. They even found a way to counter the other party through some methods. However, there were some trivial things that needed to be prepared. Otherwise, they would have used it directly.
But now, another equally powerful person was exposed. Or rather, they didn't even know if there was another person behind them. This made him a little uncertain.
The information that they had gathered before was definitely that the other party was alone. Or rather, that person was there alone. And this person who hadn't shown up at all didn't even enter, which was why he could hide from their observation. It was too ruthless. He didn't even show up in the previous battle.
One had to know that after they were robbed, they had been observing the other party. Other than the other party's mysterious summoned creatures, everything else was in their hands.
Those summoned creatures didn't last long before they collapsed. Even if they were very strong, so strong that they were tempted, they didn't care at all. Their own subordinates might not be as strong as the other party, but they had more and were very easy to control.
After wasting so much, the summoned creatures could only last for less than a day. Especially after knowing some methods, they didn't care. Moreover, they couldn't learn it. Even if they stole it, it would be a waste. As long as they killed the other party, everything would naturally be over.
"I don't know. Last time when Commander Mi went, he didn't see the other party. Should we call for more reinforcements?" Ma Nan asked tentatively.
One had to know that because of certain reasons, he couldn't make a move at all these days. At least, it would be a long time unless Lord Jin delayed his move. He was quite helpless about this, but there was no other way. After so many years of suffering, he couldn't cut it off here. The only thing he didn't have to worry about was that Lord Jin wouldn't blame him. After all, he knew about this matter.
"No need. This time, bring your people and directly force the other party. Even if there is one more enemy, we won't be afraid. Just kill!" Lord Jin said with a ferocious face. He was completely furious.
If he called for reinforcements at this time, wouldn't it mean that he was incompetent? Moreover, he was still recuperating after returning from the Sighing Plains.
At this time, the group behind began a new round of snatching resources. At this time, the others wouldn't come to help him. If they succeeded this time, their tribe would also be improved.
Therefore, he could only rely on the strength he had now.
