A man and a sword fell to the ground.
Bang! Zong Yuan, who had fallen to the ground, had lost half of his body and was gradually soaked in blood.
The moment the sword fell to the ground, it suddenly disappeared. Only the flowery robe man floated to the ground and quietly looked at Zong Yuan, whose eyes were slightly opened.
The surrounding attackers were scared out of their wits. Even Zong Yuan had been killed. Who dared to approach this man? They immediately turned around and fled.
"Zhao …" Zong Yuan stared at the flowery robe man and let out a weak voice. His eyes seemed to have something he wanted to entrust to him, but in the end, he did not have the time to say it. His eyes glazed over and he stopped breathing.
In a battle between experts, it was rare to see a fight that lasted for a long time. In fact, it did not take long for the two sides to fight and the winner was quickly decided.
Allowing the blood rain to fall on his body, the flowery robe man shifted his gaze away from Zong Yuan's face and looked in the direction of the Thatched Cottage Villa. With a flick of his sleeves, he leaped into the sky and spread his arms like a huge bird, flying over the fighting crowd below.
He did not care who won or lost, and he would not chase after the attackers one by one for the black masked men on Niu Youdao's side.
He floated above the Thatched Cottage Villa and gently landed on the attic. He slowly moved and quietly stood beside Niu Youdao. His mask was still expressionless.
The attic was completely silent. Everyone looked at him in a daze.
Huang Lie looked at him and then looked at Niu Youdao.
Holding the food box, Silver's eyes were filled with curiosity. She moved closer to the flowery robe man and stretched out her head to look at his face. The flowery robe man also looked at this good-for-nothing.
Licking the grease off her fingers, Silver's hand reached towards the flowery robe man and wanted to take off his mask.
The flowery robe man's eyes were filled with disdain. He lifted his sleeves and slapped her hand away.
In this situation, those who did not know what was going on would think that this woman was an idiot. Was she courting death?
Silver's eyes immediately widened and looked very unhappy.
This time, it was Guan Fangyi and the others who knew what was going on who broke out in cold sweat for the flowery robe man. You can kill Zong Yuan, but you are still not enough to deal with this Demon King. Most importantly, don't drag us down!
Fortunately, the alarmed Shang Shuqing was worried for Yin 'er. He came over in time to pull Yin' er away and advised softly, "Yin 'er, don't mess around."
Although Yin 'Er heard that Shang Shuqing had been pulled away, she still pouted and scolded the man, "Baddie!"
The flowery robed man had always treated her as a good-for-nothing, so he couldn't be bothered to bicker with this kind of idiotic woman.
The group of ambushers that had been dropped from the mountain had already begun to scatter. With Zong Yuan's death, their morale had collapsed!
Facing this group of black-clothed masked men, everyone was already at their wits' end. Now that even Zong Yuan was dead, what else was there to fight for? Even if they were to fight to the death, with so many experts protecting Niu Youdao, there was no way they would be able to kill Niu Youdao. Fighting to the death would only result in death. There was no need for them to fight to the death, so they could only escape!
Seeing that the masked men in black are about to give chase, Niu Youdao said: "Don't chase a cornered enemy!"
A masked man standing on the wall immediately let out a long whistle and stopped the pursuit.
"Duan Hu, Lei Zongkang, Wu San Liang." Niu Youdao shouted.
The three of them immediately went forward and cupped their fists together. "Daoye!"
Niu Youdao's back was facing the three of them as he looked straight ahead. "The three of you will each lead a hundred men and rush to the aid of Lingxiu Sect, Fuyun Sect, and Lingxiu Mountain."
"Yes!" The three of them received the order and immediately went down to communicate with the masked men. Then, they each led a hundred men and rushed over.
The strong enemy had already retreated. Now that the mountain villa's defenses had been removed, Niu Youdao was no longer afraid. He secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Initially, he was afraid that the flowery robed man wouldn't be Zong Yuan's match, which made him very nervous.
He was also glad that he had taken precautions and invited this person over. Otherwise, based on his initial confidence, he would have shot himself in the foot.
Of course, it was also because he was up against the Yan Imperial Court. In order to go head-on against such a powerful entity, he had been extra careful from the start and used all the forces he could.
This time, he had used all his strength to go head-on against the Yan Court!
Looking at the blood stains on the flowery robed man, Niu Youdao gave him a thumbs up. "An expert indeed!"
The flowery robed man glanced at him coldly.
It was hard to see clearly from the sky. Gamiao Shui flew over on his flying beast and was shocked to see Zong Yuan's dead body on the ground.
In addition, the experts who had attacked him had been defeated. Gamiao Shui knew that he could not continue the battle. He quickly flew away on his flying beast and escaped!
This scene fell into Niu Youdao's eyes. Previously, when he was supervising the battle from the sky, he already suspected that the other party's identity was not simple. He immediately waved his hand and pointed. "Let's see who it is. Red Hunting Eagles, go and see if you can take them down!"
Several masked men in black quickly jumped onto two Red Hunting Eagles and flew into the sky in pursuit …
On the mountain top, seeing the cultivators from the airdrop attack rushing over, Elder Chen and Second Elder Wu quickly stood in front of Yuan Gang to protect him. This time, their responsibility was to protect Yuan Gang.
However, these cultivators were not in the mood to fight. They were running for their lives. How could they be entangled with them? They flashed over their heads and crossed the battlefield below.
"Sect Master, they have escaped!"
One of the disciples from the Flying Flower Pavilion who was being attacked shouted.
Cao Yu'er, whose hair was disheveled and body stained with blood, waved her sword a few times to force back the entanglement. Suddenly, she looked up and saw the airdrop experts escaping.
She then looked at the disciples of the Flying Flower Pavilion who were lying dead on the ground.
"Ah!" Cao Yu'er let out a sorrowful cry. She seemed to have realized that she had failed. The Flying Flower Pavilion had paid such a huge price and still failed. How could she accept this?
However, now was not the time to vent her emotions. After calming down, she shouted, "Retreat!"
However, it was too late. From the direction of the mountain top, hundreds of masked men in black flew down from the sky and joined the battle, rushing to help the Immortal Retaining Sect disciples.
Seeing a group of experts coming to help, although he did not know who they were, Fei Chang, who was also covered in blood, was very excited. What did this mean? It meant that Daoye's side had won and had begun their counterattack. He immediately shouted, "Kill!"
Similar scenes were happening all around the perimeter of the defense line …
When the sounds of battle had completely died down, the troops stationed on the mountainside began to advance to the perimeter. They cleaned up the battlefield and advanced between the forest of arrows and steel spears.
When they found the enemies who were still moaning or struggling at death's door, they immediately pulled out their steel spears and charged forward. Blood splattered everywhere as they stabbed their spears.
Those who died were also stabbed a few times to prevent those who feigned death. These people were all experienced in cleaning up the battlefield.
...
Hearing that the sounds of battle had stopped, Yuan Fang sneakily appeared out of nowhere to check on the situation. When he saw that Niu Youdao and the others had calmly descended from the pavilion, he immediately felt relieved. He flicked his sleeves and ran toward Niu Youdao.
Although he had avoided danger, he had missed the exciting and eye-opening scene.
"Daoye, did we win? Do you want me to bring some people to clean up the battlefield? "Yuan Fang asked with a fawning expression.
Guan Fangyi rolled her eyes. She had experienced this person before and knew that he was very interested in cleaning up the battlefield. "Go, go, go!" She waved her hand and asked him to leave.
Niu Youdao walked out of the villa with his sword in hand, personally welcoming the people who had returned from the bloody battle between the three sects.
Fei Changliu, Zheng Jiuxiao, and Xia Hua, who were covered in blood, returned with Yuan Gang and the others. The disciples behind them even dragged two people over. One was on the verge of death, and the other had a broken leg.
Once Yuan Gang arrived, he nodded at Niu Youdao and stood to the side.
"Daoye, we did not fail you!" Fei, Zheng, and Xia cupped their hands and reported.
Niu Youdao's gaze landed on Xia Hua's wrapped shoulder. It was obvious that she was injured. Looking at the sorry state of the three people, even the sect master was injured. He did not see the battle to know how intense the battle was. He asked, "Sect Master Xia, are you okay?"
"I won't die." Xia Hua smiled bitterly and asked, "Daoye, what happened?"
Huang Lie raised his eyebrows and muttered in his heart. They fought to this extent and still did not know what happened. Was it true? How could they risk their lives without knowing what was going on?
Niu Youdao said, "I received news that the Imperial Court is working together to harm me. I did not know if it was true, so I did not inform you. Thank you for your hard work."
They were still holding on to the idea of working together. Guan Fangyi glanced at the reactions of the people from Great Zen Mountain. As expected, their expressions were ugly.
"Working together?" The three sect masters were puzzled and looked at each other.
"The truth has already proven that it has nothing to do with you. Maybe it was someone else." Niu Youdao brushed it aside. These words caused Huang Lie's eyebrows to twitch.
Niu Youdao did not say much. He lifted his chin at the two people who were dragged over. "Who are these two?"
Xia Hua pointed at the dying man. "Zhen Ling Institute's sect master, Jin Wuguang!"
Fei Changliu pointed at the one who had one leg chopped off. "Flying Flower Pavilion's sect master, Cao Yu'er, the ones who attacked us from the outside were these two sects. We have already taken down the culprit. The rest of the survivors are gathered at the foot of the mountain!"
Zheng Jiuxiao said, "Some escaped quickly. Some of these two sects escaped, but not many."
In reality, if it was not for the help of those masked men in black, they would not have been able to take down these two sect masters.
Niu Youdao made an "oh" sound. He took out the scabbard in his hand and lifted Cao Yu'er's chin.
Cao Yu'er shook her head unwillingly. "Pah!" She even spat a mouthful of bloody saliva at Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao invoked his arts to block it. The saliva fell before it could reach him.
Duan Hu, who was behind him, stepped forward. Pa, it was a slap. He then grabbed Cao Yu'er's long hair and pulled her head back, revealing her face.
Niu Youdao brushed aside the messy hair on her face with the scabbard in his hand. He asked, "Sect Master Cao, didn't you say to come see me in three days? Why are you here so quickly? "
Cao Yu'er, who had no choice but to raise her head, said angrily, "Niu Youdao, consider yourself lucky. There will come a day when you will die a horrible death!"
"I've seen you before. When you were young, you were quite pretty. You didn't marry, have children, or take care of your husband and children. Instead, you chose to fight and kill. Why bother?" Niu Youdao sighed. He put down his sword and asked, "How do you think we should deal with this?"
Xia Hua gritted her teeth and said, "The number of disciples from our three sects who died at their hands is probably no less than two thousand, and the number of soldiers stationed there is even more!"
Fei Changliu asked, "Don't tell me Daoye wants to let her go?"
Zheng Jiuxiao also watched anxiously. The three sects had suffered such a great calamity and lost so many people. They all wanted nothing more than to exterminate Zhen Ling Institute and Flying Flower Pavilion to take revenge!
Niu Youdao looked at their reactions and said calmly, "They are all pawns used by others. It doesn't matter if they live or die. Help them wash their faces and give them some medical treatment. Hang them on the city walls of Green Mountain County as bait and set up an ambush. If any disciples from the two sects come to rescue them, kill them on the spot! Let the world know that this is the consequence of offending our Thatched Cottage Villa! "
Hearing this, the three sect masters nodded. They indeed couldn't let them die so easily.
Jin Wuguang, who was on the verge of death, became agitated and his breathing became rapid.
Cao Yu'er, who had her hair pulled, struggled and screamed, "Niu Youdao, you bastard. I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!"
