"Junior Brother Mu, just now, I went around Han Yao's residence. I wanted to get some useful information from him, but before I could finish speaking, the high priest sent someone to inform them. Father and son, send manpower to follow the Jiuli Tribe and Bei Pluto’s men to the third line of defense to block the attacks of the righteous factions!”
"Senior Brother Yi, are you serious about this?" Although he had already made a guess in his mind, when Yi Hong finished speaking, Mu Jingyu couldn't help but jump up from the bed.
"You'll know if you come here and take a look." Yi Hong stretched out his hand to lift the curtain, turned sideways, and Rong Mu Jingyu put his head to the side.
Outside the window, the entire Western Han Yuan Continent factions have already taken action. It's just that most of the troops were sent out to look for traces of him and Ba Zheng. Most of the people left here at the moment are the children of the Han family. But even so, these Han family disciples still followed the order, quickly gathered together, and under the arrangement of the Jiuli tribe, gathered around the temple.
Mu Jingyu said: "It seems that the high priest thought that I was among the various sects and was not going to leave any manpower to guard the temple, so he had to go all out to guard against the righteous path."
"That's right!" Yi Hong nodded and said: "When Han Wenyuan received the order just now, the high priest had already explained that except for the Xihan Yuanzhou factions who were still at the junction of the two continents and were on guard against Chief Jin, they only left A limited number of people guard the temple. The remaining people rush to the three lines of defense."
Mu Jingyu lowered the curtains, sat back on the chair and said, "Senior Brother Yi, isn't the high priest afraid that Jin Yingzi will lead the fourteen tribes to sneak attack here while the temple is empty?"
"Hahaha." Yi Hong laughed loudly and said: "Junior Brother Mu, Junior Brother Mu, you know the strength of the Jin clan leader much better than I do. Except for a few clan leaders who are in the innate realm, there are no strong ones! Just rely on Liu. The dozens of Xihan Yuan Continent factions at the junction of the two continents are enough to deal with them. Besides, the high priest thought that you and Senior Ba Zheng had also joined the righteous factions. With the fourteen clans of Chief Jin, what can you do? Afraid."
Yes, Yi Hong was right. He knew the strength of Jin Yingzi's side best. Without him and Ba Zheng, and with Yu Yuanxiu and Qin Yunchuan taken away, the remaining fourteen clan leaders, including Bi Yun and others, really don't have many strong men who can take action. It is not an easy task to break through the obstruction of the various factions in Xihan Yuanzhou.
However, isn't the current situation exactly what she and he want to see? In today's temple, all the power has been transferred away, and there are very few remaining manpower. Wouldn't it be good for him to save the four masters and more than a thousand righteous disciples and create opportunities.
Thinking of this, Mu Jingyu asked: "Senior Brother Yi, how much do you know about the ferocious beast formations around the temple? Can I go in and rescue them?"
Yi Hong said sternly: "I have said before that the ferocious beast array and the stone statues in the temple are all connected to Chi You's body. Once there is any change, people will know about it. But now... all the people here are We have been sent out, and the remaining manpower is limited. As long as we can rescue the four masters and more than a thousand disciples in a short period of time, we can turn defeat into victory and control the entire temple!"
"Okay!" Mu Jingyu was waiting for these words and said immediately: "Senior Brother Yi, let's get ready. As soon as the defense near the temple is empty, we will go in and rescue them."
While Mu Jingyu sneaked into the temple, three waves of troops sent by Elder Gu Li and Bei Pluto had quietly arrived at the place where the righteous factions had temporarily set up camp.
This place is fifty miles away from the temple. Looking from mid-air, we can see overlapping mountains. There is only a valley passing through it, blocking the progress of the righteous factions.
The high priest set up three lines of defense here according to the mountain topography. Every line of defense is set up using the ancient formations of the Jiuli tribe, and is extremely powerful.
After Elder Liowu led people here, he personally went inside to find out. He found that although the three formations were mysterious, he could still enter and exit them at will based on his cultivation. It's just that I want to lead all the troops through, but it's very difficult. I don't know how many disciples will be lost.
Anyway, it was originally agreed with Mu Jingyu that after he convinced several Zhuli tribes, they would attack together from two directions. After discussing with everyone, Elder Liao Wu decided to set up camp temporarily, and at the same time asked Bi Yan and Zhu Yan to bypass three defense lines from a distance to see the situation on Mu Jingyu's side.
In order to prevent the Jiuli tribe from taking advantage of the situation to launch an attack, each of the Zhengdao factions formed a long snake formation and lined up horizontally along a large open space outside the mountains.
When Master Tongxuan agreed, he had already spoken in advance and would stay behind and act according to the situation. Therefore, we strongly advocate that the four factions of Wujixu should not stand side by side with them in front of the defense line, but huddle in the rear.
With no other choice, Elder Liaowu and others had no choice but to agree to Master Tongxuan and allow the four factions to camp ten miles behind.
In the tent located in the center, Fairy Chi Mei sat safely at the bottom, while Elder Wu and Qinglian sat at the top in the middle. Qijue scholar Yue Mengxiao, Master Taier, Nangong Jingqiu and Tiger King were sitting opposite Fairy Chimei.
"Guys, Chi Mei has brought Bei Pluto's words. Whether you act in accordance with his wishes depends on your decision." It seems that Fairy Chi Mei has already arrived here and discussed with them.
Elder Liao Wu said: "Lao Na, on behalf of the righteous sects, has thanked Bei Pluto for his kindness. As for whether to cooperate with him, we still need to decide after discussing with several people."
"Well, Chi Mei has to rush back to tell Bei Pluto about the situation, so I won't interrupt him for now." Chi Mei smiled and stood up from the chair.
"Tiger King, please send the fairy to you. This is our righteous territory after all. If others see the fairy, it will be hard to explain." Elder Liaowu stood up and ordered the Tiger King to take Fairy Chimei out.
"Fairy Chi Mei, please." Tiger King waved his hand and made a gesture of invitation. He didn't have a good look on Fairy Chi Mei.
"I'm sorry for bothering the Tiger King." Fairy Chi Mei didn't care. She walked to the Tiger King's side, thanked him cheerfully, and followed him out of the door.
"Guys, I wonder how much you believe Fairy Chi Mei's words?" Elder Liaowu turned around and asked the four of them after seeing the two of them walking out.
Headmaster Qinglian said in a deep voice: "Master, what you mean is that you believe what King Bei Pluto said. You really don't want the Jiuli tribe to take advantage of the situation to grow bigger, and you want to take the opportunity to unite with us to jointly annihilate the Jiuli tribe?"
"Exactly." Elder Liao Wu nodded and said: "Although the Yaoming Palace led by Bei Pluto is at odds with my righteous path, in the final analysis, it is still due to the heavenly way to eliminate demons decades ago. Moreover, the two parties are not at odds with each other. We have similar strength, and no one can do anything to the other. But once the Jiuli tribe destroys our righteous sects, will they keep him in the Demon Underworld Palace? So..."
"So, can you judge based on this, North Pluto is sincere this time and wants to cooperate with us?" Yue Mengxiao, a Qijue scholar, stroked the golden velvet ferret and looked sideways at Elder Wu.
"I know whether I am sincere or not." Elder Liao Wu said: "You must still remember that more than half a month ago, the high priest and Bei Ping Wang took advantage of me to go to rescue the Jiuhua Sect and were not in the temple. Let’s go for the sneak attack. Although later, Mu Shaoxia, the two Dharma Kings Biuan and Zhu Yan, and the Moon Donor Xingye rushed to the rescue, it was a step too late after all. However, they discovered that the disciples in my temple had already gone into hiding to avoid casualties. Something about that. Donor Yue, what I said is right."
Yue Mengxiao lowered her head and kept caressing the golden velvet ferret. The little guy in her arms turned over comfortably, exposing her belly. Hearing this, she said: "Haha, have you already noticed that? Did North Pluto trigger the protective formation warning in advance?"
"Can't you tell?" Liao Wu laughed and said, "The formations in the temple were set up by me myself. How can I not know if there are any changes?"
Headmaster Qinglian said: "Master Liaowu, if you judge Bei Pluto's sincerity based on this, it would be too arbitrary."
Elder Liao Wu said: "Headmaster Qinglian, I don't know if you are talking about being arbitrary, do you mean that I easily believe in the sincerity of King Bei Pluto? Or am I deciding to rashly lead people to break through the formation and enter the temple?"
"Both aspects, probably." Headmaster Qinglian replied: "Now, you and I know very little about the situation in the temple. If you make a decision rashly based on just a few words from Bei Pluto, I'm afraid you will regret it later. It's too late. Besides, Master Tongxuan's attitude is very clear, and he will not use all his strength when the situation is unclear. Once we and the Jiuli tribe fall into a bitter battle, who can say clearly what he will do? Yi What I mean is that we should stay put for the time being and wait until Mu Shaoxia gets a reply before making a decision."
Elder Liao Wu pondered for a moment and then said: "Headmaster Qinglian, I think you are too cautious. Now that you know the arrangement of the high priest, are you afraid that you have no way to deal with it? As for Master Tongxuan... I think With our current strength, we can fight evenly with the Jiuli tribe. When the time comes, there will be King Bei Pluto to support us. Are we afraid that the situation will not be favorable to us and Master Tongxuan will not take action? Master Taier, Nangong Sword Immortal, you two What do you think?"
Master Taier and Nangong Jingqiu have been silent for a long time. At first, they were skeptical about Bei Pluto's attitude. Secondly, there has been no reply from Mu Jingyu. If you act rashly, who knows whether it will be good or bad for him.
In the final analysis, the Jiuzhou casual cultivators they led only fully cooperated with the righteous sects for the sake of Mu Jingyu's face and because they were concerned that the Jiuli tribe would be detrimental to themselves if they destroyed the righteous sects.
Now that the situation is unclear, if you make a decision rashly, if you fall into a trap, many casual cultivators who do not belong to the same sect will immediately become separated, and their prestige among the casual cultivators will plummet.
After considering these two points, Master Taier said: "Master, I think Master Qinglian has a good idea. Now that there is no news from Mu Jingyu, it is better to stay put. Of course, once there is news from Mu Jingyu, News, I will lead the Jiuzhou loose cultivators to fully support your decision."
Elder Liowu saw that everyone opposed his plan and had no choice but to do so. He sighed and said: "Hey... I didn't expect that with my infinite prestige, I still can't convince you."
At this moment, the Tiger King, who was going to see Chi Mei off, hurriedly walked in from outside. Also following him were Ba Zheng, Qin Yunchuan, and Yu Yuanxiu.
Everyone who had not paid attention to the Tiger King stood up one after another after seeing the three people coming in together, and said at the same time: "Ba Zheng! Why are you here, where is Mu Jingyu? Why didn't you come with you? Among the Zhuli tribe , what happened." 33
Mu Jingyu possesses the Jiuyao Xuanguang Chain and the Chiyou Demon Axe, which are must-have treasures for the Jiuli tribe. Seeing that he was not following him, several people immediately became uneasy.
Ba Zheng moved a chair, sat down and took a few breaths before saying, "Don't worry, Mu Jingyu is fine."
Master Taier handed over a cup of tea, and after Ba Zheng drank it all, he asked, "What happened? Please tell me quickly."
Looking at everyone's anxious eyes, Ba Zheng told them how they rescued Jin Yingzi, captured Wu Luo, and at the same time persuaded the thirteen clan leaders to rebel against the Jiuli tribe.
Finally, he said: "After we came out from the Zhuli tribe, we originally wanted to find an opportunity to sneak into the temple and rescue the four masters and more than a thousand disciples. Then Mu Jingyu found an opportunity to use the magic ax in his hand to get rid of Chi You's body. But what happened? When they arrived at the junction of the two continents, they found a large number of Xihanyuanzhou factions who had already set up heavy patrols. Fortunately, at the critical moment, Mu Jingyu used human skin and cotton to disguise Qin Yunchuan and diverted the pursuers. He took the opportunity Sneaking into the temple alone. And we went around in circles, and we were actually driven here."
In order to prevent Yi Hong's identity from being exposed, Ba Zheng had already made a plan with Qin Yunchuan and Yu Yuanxiu when he arrived so that Yi Hong would not be exposed. In case there are spies from the Han family here, they would inform Han Wenyuan and his son after finding out, putting Mu Jingyu in danger.
Some people died, but not completely...
