One day later, the experts of the Xie Clan and the Immortal Jade City passed through the canyon and arrived at the Mountain Tile City. The City Lord of the Mountain Tile City, Bu Jingyun, had already received the news and was waiting outside the city with the experts of the four great clans.
What one hears may be false, but seeing is believing.
Bu Jing Yun couldn't help but be startled when he saw that more than 3,000 experts had arrived from the Immortal Jade City. Especially when he saw the three elders of the Xie Clan. He hastily led the crowd to greet them. When he was still ten feet away from the Xie Clan's Third Elder, he bowed respectfully and said:
"Bu Jingyun and the Patriarchs of the four great clans of the Mountain Tile City respectfully welcome the Great Elder, Second Elder, Fifth Elder, and all the Lords to the Mountain Tile City. I hope the three Elders and all the Lords will forgive me for not welcoming you earlier!"
Xie Xuan was very satisfied with the attitude of Bu Jingyun and the other four Patriarchs of the Mountain Tile City. He did not dismount from his horse. He nodded slightly and spoke on behalf of all the experts of the Immortal Jade City:
"City Lord Bu, four Patriarchs, you have done a very good job. When this matter is settled, this Elder will go back to the Immortal Jade City and put in a few good words for you in front of City Lord Xie. At that time, City Lord Xie will surely be very pleased and reward you handsomely. Haha!"
"Ah? Many thanks for the Great Elder's praise. Many thanks for the City Lord's kindness. This subordinate is overwhelmed by the favor! "
Bu Jingyun and the four Patriarchs heard Xie Xuan's words of concern. They knew that these words were hypocritical, and that Xie Xuan's purpose was to use them to deal with Xiao Chen. However, the five of them still pretended to be grateful from the bottom of their hearts, and expressed their gratitude and gratitude.
"Well, the Xie Clan has always attached great importance to the development of the Mountain Tile City. In the future, they will surely invest a lot of money to speed up the construction of the Mountain Tile City. Haha!"
Xie Xuan was good at scheming and was extremely shrewd. He was able to deceive people easily. After saying these hypocritical words, he changed the topic and said with a serious face, "You're right. You're right. You're right.
"City Lord Bu, four Patriarchs, I'm sure you've heard that an outsider called Xiao Chen and a ferocious beast have wreaked havoc in Ruyang City, causing the death of a large number of experts and the loss of wealth. City Lord Xie has predicted that the scoundrel Xiao Chen and his ferocious beast will definitely choose to pass through the Serpentine Grand Canyon and enter the back of the Moonwatch Tribe. He is worried that the scoundrel Xiao Chen will attack the Mountain Tile City, so he has sent us here to support the Mountain Tile City. We will definitely execute that scoundrel Xiao Chen!"
He was lying through his teeth!
Shameless!
Clearly, it was the Xie Family who wanted to destroy Xiao Chen and the Lion King, and they needed the cooperation and lives of the experts of Mountain Tile City. But now, from Xie Xuan's mouth, it was a completely different story. He made it sound like the Xie Family had done Mountain Tile City a great favor. It seemed like shameless people existed everywhere.
"Shameless!"
Bu Jing Yun cursed in his heart. But, on the surface, he was very grateful and said, "City Lord Xie, thank you for your concern. This subordinate can't thank you enough, and I will pledge my loyalty to you. Elders, let's not just stand here. It's raining heavily here. Can we go to the Han Residence first? This Bu has already prepared food and wine to welcome you. "
"Good! City Lord Bu is so hospitable and enthusiastic. We have no choice but to accept! "Xie Xuan accepted Bu Jing Yun's kindness on behalf of the Immortal Jade City's big shots.
Xie Xuan had a general understanding of Xiao Chen's itinerary. He believed that Xiao Chen would need at least one day to reach the Mountain Tile City even if he braved the rain. Therefore, it wouldn't be a problem to have a meal first, and then deploy the troops to intercept Xiao Chen. So, he gladly accepted Bu Jing Yun's request.
However, only the three elders of the Xie Family and the elders of the nine big clans of the Immortal Jade City were allowed to enter the city. The rest of the people were ordered by Xie Xuan to lie in ambush in the serpent-shaped canyon. Only after they had eaten and drunk to their heart's content would the detailed arrangements be made. It would be a wonder if the Bu Family wouldn't explode if more than three thousand people were to enter the Bu Residence.
Two hours later, Xie Xuan and the group of big shots had eaten and drunk to their heart's content. They were accompanied by Bu Jing Yun and thousands of Mountain Tile City's experts. They majestically rushed towards the serpent-shaped canyon several miles away.
The experts of the Mountain Tile City were extremely reluctant to take action. They had heard about the deeds of Xiao Chen and the Lion King in the Rongyang City. They were extremely afraid of Xiao Chen and the Lion King. However, they had no choice but to obey the Xie Family's orders. Otherwise, they would be sentenced to death, and their whole families would be executed.
Xiao Chen and the Lion King were infamous. However, the prestige of the Xie Family was deeply rooted in the Full Moon Tribe. Therefore, no one in the Full Moon Tribe dared to disobey the Xie Family's orders. They knew that the Xie Family had a deep foundation. They had four Celestial Phenomenon Realm experts on the surface. So, they must have experts above the Dragon Elephant Realm in the dark.
The distance of several miles was very short. Xie Xuan and the others rode on warhorses. It took them less than half an hour to arrive at the northern entrance of the serpent-shaped canyon, which was located in the south.
The serpent-shaped canyon, as the name suggested, was shaped like a snake. Indeed, its shape was curved like a huge snake. The canyon was about a hundred miles long. Xie Xuan had already planned to set up an ambush in the middle of the canyon to stop Xiao Chen and the Lion King. At this time, the three thousand experts of the Immortal Jade City had already arrived at the middle of the canyon. They were waiting for the arrival of Xie Xuan and the others.
"Enter the canyon!"
Xie Xuan let out a loud shout and led a thousand people into the serpentine canyon to meet up with the powerhouses of the Immortal Jade City. Then, they would make a unified deployment. After that, all they had to do was to wait for Xiao Chen and the Lion King to enter.
This time, it took them nearly two hours to reach the middle of the canyon. The middle area was narrower than the two ends, which was more suitable for ambushing.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Along with four sounds of the air being torn apart, four Xie Clan's Purple Image Realm experts shot down like bolts of lightning from the trees halfway up the mountain on both sides of the gorge, and they knelt down on one knee towards the three Xie Clan elders as they said respectfully, "Grand Elder, Second Elder, Fifth Elder, three thousand experts have already laid in ambush at the best position, please inspect!"
"En, well done!"
Xie Xuan's sharp eyes swept across the mountainside on both sides of the canyon. It was difficult to find well-hidden experts. He couldn't help but nod in satisfaction and praise the four subordinates. Then, he looked at Bu Jing Yun and said solemnly, "City Lord Bu, quickly arrange for your men to lie in ambush, okay? Xiao Chen should be here soon. "
"Yes, Great Elder!" Since the troops had already been dispatched, it was useless to think too much. Bu Jing Yun waved his hand and led the experts of the Tile City to the mountainside.
An hour later, more than four thousand warriors who were at least at the White Tiger Realm and above were lying in ambush on both sides of the middle section of the canyon. The five hundred experts of the Xie Clan took out their own military crossbows and set them up in their respective hiding spots, such as boulders, pits, trees, bushes, and bushes.
Each crossbow was equipped with a crossbow bolt. The bolt was about three feet long and three centimeters in diameter. The body of the bolt was made of alloy iron, and the tip of the bolt was coated with a green poison. This poison was called the Blood Melting Powder, which was specially created to target warriors. The poisoned person would rapidly lose his Desolate Power, and at the same time, his blood would be depleted. It was extremely poisonous. There was an antidote, but it was very difficult to concoct, so it was very rare.
The experts of the Xie Clan actually used such a vicious poison to deal with Xiao Chen and The Lion King. Obviously, they did not have much hope for the crossbows. They only hoped that the crossbows could injure Xiao Chen and The Lion King, and then use the poison to poison Xiao Chen and The Lion King. When that happened, Xiao Chen and The Lion King would be meat on the chopping board, waiting to be slaughtered.
At the same time, Xie Xuan also gave the Blood Melting Powder to the other experts of the Immortal Jade City and Tile City. To deal with the powerful Lion King, no one dared to use close combat attacks. That was no different from sending themselves to death. Everyone came to a consensus, which was to use long-range attacks as much as possible.
Other than the powerful crossbows, there were also rolling stones, logs, bows and arrows, ropes, etc. The rolling stones and logs were easy to handle, as they could be used locally. The bows, arrows, and ropes had already been brought along. Everything was ready, and a dragnet had already been set up. All that was left was for Xiao Chen and The Lion King to enter.
