"Is it right?"
"There are some differences, but they are almost the same!"
Zhou Yuanli looked solemn and reported all the information he had just obtained from another person's torture to Luo Chen.
"Ojiang Gang!"
"The group of enemies besieging Xianyue Valley are basically from the Dajiang Gang."
"You should know the leader, Hall Master."
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, "I know him? It can't be that Gao Tingyuan!"
"Yes, it is indeed him." Zhou Yuanli said with a heavy heart: "Not only that, there are five enemies from the ninth level of Qi Refining alone, and the specific number of other monks in the middle and late stages of Qi Refining is at least more than that. That’s it.”
Hearing this amount, even though Luo Chen was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but take a breath.
What is the Dajiang Gang doing?
This force has almost accounted for one-third of the strength of the Dajiang Gang!
Just to deal with the two halls of Xieyue Valley?
In particular, the Alchemy Hall and the Medicine Hall are not known for their combat prowess, but are just back-office production halls.
"Did Gao Tingyuan come here in a hurry for revenge, or does the Dajiang Gang have other plans?"
Luo Chen thought for a while and asked directly: "Can I contact Elder Sikong?"
"I have his voice transmission, but the speed is too slow and I won't be able to contact him for a while. But I'm sure he's still alive."
If Sikong Shoujia can be recalled, Xieyue Valley's combat power will be greatly increased.
This kind of old monk may have no hope, but he is already extremely skilled in honing his fighting methods.
It's not something that Gu Caiyi, who has just been promoted to the ninth level of Qi Refining, can compare with.
"Prepare your defenses first!"
Luo Chen ordered.
"Hall Master, what should we do with those two spies?"
"Kill him." Luo Chen said casually, looking unconcerned.
Zhou Yuanli looked stern and retreated.
After a while, Zhou Yuanli felt a little uncomfortable watching the two monks who were tortured to the point of dying and being decapitated by Dongfang Liang.
Luo Chen's performance today was beyond his expectation.
Luo Chen usually gives people the impression that he has a superb talent for alchemy, is kind to others, and is friendly to others.
Although a little cynical, it doesn't feel threatening overall.
Harmless to humans and animals!
These four words can sum it up.
But Luo Chen's performance today...
Whether it is deciding to let people in, easing internal and external conflicts, or identifying spies, Lei Ting takes action, all demonstrating unusual and decisive methods under the usual gentle appearance.
Especially when dealing with the two spies, he showed a ruthlessness.
This is almost completely different from the Luo Chen that everyone knows.
"No wonder the gang leader told me to pay more attention to Luo Chen, but I didn't expect it to be hidden so deeply!"
Zhou Yuanli felt uneasy. He had contradicted Luo Chen before and ignored the other party's orders to activate the formation first.
The look Luo Chen gave him at that time, thinking about it now, really sent chills down the spine.
Just when he was worried, a younger brother rushed in.
"Elder Sikong is back!"
"Where?" Zhou Yuanli asked quickly.
"We have entered Xianyue Valley."
"Damn it, who asked you to let him in directly!"
Zhou Yuanli's expression changed slightly and he ran out quickly.
…
As soon as he arrived at the alchemy hall, he saw Sikong Shoujia sitting opposite Luo Chen and Murong Qinglian.
At this moment, the other party was in a very embarrassed state, and his whole body was covered with frost.
There are even ice ridges hanging on his beard.
"It's the robbery cultivator from Xuelianfang!"
Sikong Shoujia said breathlessly, and then stared at Luo Chen with stern eyes.
"It's all because of you!"
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "Elder Sikong, what did you say?"
"Then Gao Tingyuan has always suspected that you killed his biological brother, and the Jie Xiu from Xuelianfang who is chasing me is obviously the same Shan Xiu who failed to kill you last time and was wanted to kill you instead."
"You also said they didn't come for you?"
Luo Chen chuckled lightly, "If you are just targeting me, you only need to set an ambush on my way back to the city. Why do you need to go to such great lengths and send hundreds of monks to attack Xianyue Valley?"
"You know, this is an enemy of the entire Poshan Gang and the leader of the Foundation Establishment Monk Mi Gang!"
Sikong Shoujia was stunned and reacted instantly.
yes!
Such a large battle was already comparable to the Dajiang Gang's attack on the Poshan Gang's Seventh Hall.
Even more so.
The troops led by the five major Qi Refining Ninth Levels can almost sweep away most of the small forces that are mainly in the Qi Refining Stage.
Doing so can be regarded as openly hostile to the Poshan Gang.
You must know that the last conflict between the two gangs was completely resolved by sprinkling the blood of nine masters on the forum.
However, how long has passed?
How dare they start fighting again?
Luo Chen didn't bother with him, walked to the cliff and looked into the distance.
Outside the khaki mask, enemy figures have begun to appear.
The overall shape is fan-shaped, slowly surrounding Xianyue Valley.
Just like making dumplings, unless you abandon the stronghold of Xianyue Valley and escape to the Xiaoyue Mountains behind you, you will be caught in a trap.
However, Xieyue Valley has been operated by the Poshan Gang for a long time, and the spiritual fields, medicine pavilions, and many medicinal materials inside must not be discarded easily.
Especially, there is the most important alchemy hall!
It can be said that no one dared to abandon Xieyue Valley directly without receiving orders from Mi Shuhua.
Far away, Luo Chen saw the short and strong man in the sky outside.
Regardless of whether the other party could see it or not, Luo Chen waved his hand.
Saying hello?
When did this happen!
Behind them, Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang looked at each other, and the familiar Luo Chen seemed to be back.
"Hall Master, where is Elder Sikong..."
"Don't worry, anyone can betray the Poshan Gang, but he won't."
Luo Chen said without looking back.
He was the one who let the little old man in just now.
The reason for this confidence is actually very simple.
The old man's son Sikong Yuanhong is the son-in-law of the Mi family, and his future is in the hands of Mi Shuhua.
If Sikong Shoujia himself still had hope, he might have been cruel enough to abandon his loved ones and surrender directly to the enemy.
But it is obvious that as he is getting older, he has no hope of success in this life.
That's why anyone can betray, but Sikong Shoujia will not!
Luo Chen raised his hand and pointed at the streaks of escaping light in the sky outside.
He smiled pointedly and said, "Have you noticed that they don't seem to care about conquering Xianyue Valley?"
Liu Qiang was stunned. If he didn't attack Xieyue Valley, why would he be standing around?
Zhou Yuanli looked hesitant, as if he had thought of something.
Murong Qinglian and Sikong Shoujia also stepped forward and looked into the distance.
"I also discovered that the previous encirclement outside has obviously been completed, but when encountering low-level monks from the Dan Hall and the Medicine Hall, they only focus on driving them away and rarely make a killing move."
"shit!"
Sikong Shoujia was very dissatisfied with Murong Qinglian's words. He said angrily: "The guy who was chasing me just now is obviously ruthless and wants to cut me into pieces!"
Murong Qinglian's expression froze, but then she realized something.
"Indeed, they did not attack low-level monks with deadly force. But when they attacked me and Caiyi, they had almost no reservations. If Caiyi and I hadn't both had defensive weapons, one of us would have died and the other would have been seriously injured on the spot."
Because of the defensive magic weapon, one was seriously injured and the other was not injured.
Combining this information, Luo Chen was thoughtful.
"For low-level monks, we will mainly drive them away and surround them, while for later-level monks, we will kill them ruthlessly."
"So, they're just trying to corral most of us here."
This conclusion surprised everyone.
Not killing, just surrounding?
What is this going to do?
Liu Qiang couldn't help but ask: "But our Poshan Gang is not a soft persimmon! Knowing that Xieyue Valley is besieged, the other gangs will definitely come to support us. When the time comes, we should cooperate inside and outside. Their encirclement is a joke."
"Not just the other halls!" Sikong Shoujia said decisively.
Zhou Yuanli took out a piece of jade and said, "I have sent a message to the gang leader. He will definitely come to save us."
A group of monks in the Qi Refining Stage seemed to be menacing.
But in the middle stage of foundation building, in front of the monks holding magic weapons, they were nothing more than chickens and dogs.
Compared to everyone who was full of confidence, Luo Chen was not so optimistic.
Mi Shuhua is not in that good condition now. It is still uncertain whether he will take action himself.
Moreover, how many other halls are there?
Most of the Tangkou members in the Guyuan Mountains who participated in the battle for the Golden Core ruins suffered heavy losses.
Like Luo Wudi, Zhang Shicong died directly.
Although the two hall masters who have been supported in the past half month have strength, they have no prestige.
Especially in those two halls, most of the masters died in the Guyuan Mountains.
The most important thing is that they can think of this.
Can the Dajiang Gang not think of it?
Luo Chen looked at it for a while, then turned and entered the elixir raising room.
Sikong Shoujia looked at his back hesitantly, but saw that the door was immediately closed.
…
…
Outside Xianyue Valley.
The five masters of the ninth level of Qi refining gathered together in one place.
"Why are we still standing here? Let's go straight in!"
"Have a rest alone, take some time and don't be impatient."
Shanxiu looked ferocious, no longer calm as before.
"Why don't you tell me to be calm? At first I just asked that boy for tolls, but he lost three of my men when he changed hands. That's all, but the Poshan Gang even issued a wanted order to hunt me down."
"I can hold it in, but my hands can't hold it in!"
Everyone looked at his left hand, where the palm should have been, turned into an iron claw that shone with cold light.
The monk wearing a golden robe couldn't help but smile and said: "Your iron claw should be a middle-grade magic weapon, it is quite unique."
"Fu Zhang!"
"Okay, stop making noise. The order is to surround but not kill. How unbecoming is it to make a noise!" Gao Tingyuan, who was standing at the front, shouted in a low voice.
However, Shanxiu didn't give him this face.
"You were the one who leaked Dan Chenzi's information to me, Gao Tingyuan! You want him to die more than I do, who are you showing off to?"
Gao Tingyuan was not as tall as him, but his aura was not inferior at all, and even surpassed him.
A pair of cold eyes looked over.
"Then you messed up things in the first place, weren't you the one who accepted you into the Dajiang Gang?"
"Why, challenge me now."
"If you have the means, you can rush into the formation alone, capture Na Luo Chen alive, and humiliate him at will!"
Shan Xiu opened his mouth, glanced at the other figure who had not spoken, and finally spat angrily.
He was silent, but Fu Zhang, who was wearing a golden robe before, suppressed his smile.
He was holding a sledgehammer and leaning on the ground.
"Old Gao, it's not a problem to delay it like this. There are many experts in the Poshan Gang, and sooner or later someone will come to help."
"When to launch the attack, please give me time so that my brothers can figure it out."
Gao Tingyuan took a deep breath and tried his best to suppress the bloodthirsty impulse in his heart.
He looked around and saw that the monks from the Dajiang Gang were constantly patrolling and moving around, ensuring that no blind spots were left to prevent any monk in Xianyue Valley from escaping.
Even behind Xianyue Valley, he arranged a team of monks to send out a signal as soon as they found any trace.
"Lao Gao, please give me an accurate letter!"
"Don't worry, those people from the Poshan Gang can't come!"
Gao Tingyuan snorted coldly, gave a few instructions to his brother Lan Tianyun, then turned and walked towards the monk who had been silent.
A sound insulation note was played, and the two started talking as if no one was watching.
But the inside story was unknown to the other three.
…
The Mi family's forbidden area is located.
There was a clicking sound, and then a pile of medium-grade spiritual stones in the corner turned into a pile of lime powder.
Mi Shuhua opened his eyes and breathed a long sigh of relief.
Looking inside, he nodded with satisfaction.
As long as the middle-grade spiritual stones can keep up, and with the help of this second-order spiritual vein environment, he can quickly recover from the injuries left in the Guyuan Mountains.
Not only that, but after recovering from his injuries, his skills can even improve to the next level.
By then, there will be a lot to do in the later stage of foundation building!
Thinking of the Guyuan Mountains, Mi Shuhua's face became unsightly.
"Miao Wen mistook me!"
"There is no chance of forming an elixir at all. Although I was lucky enough to get the storage ring from the Supreme Elder of Ghost Valley, there is nothing in it that can help me form an elixir."
"Because of these things, a lot of manpower and material resources of our Poshan Gang were wasted, and even I was seriously injured."
In the battle for the ruins, many foundation-building monks cannot say that they have gained nothing.
But compared to the golden elixir opportunity that everyone was looking forward to, those gains were completely inadequate.
This is completely different from the news revealed by Deacon Miao of Jade Cauldron Sword Pavilion.
Mi Shuhua didn't know what went wrong. He just wanted to recover from his injury quickly.
As long as he recovers from his injuries, with the few treasures in the storage bag of the Supreme Elder of Ghost Valley, he can completely walk sideways during the foundation building period.
Even if he meets a cultivator from the sect, he is not afraid!
"Fortunately, I discovered Luo Chen's little trick and it's not too late to make amends!"
"He has now sworn an oath to work hard to refine elixirs for me. His monthly gross income can earn him 20,000 low-grade spiritual stones."
"Luo Wudi and Yang Wei, who were supposed to share the profits, are also dead. Ke Yuelin and Sikong Shoujia all listened to me. In this way, I can share less."
"With Luo Chen's income, I can fully recover from my injuries in three months at most."
"Even later, you can buy panaceas in large quantities to hit the later stage of foundation building!"
Thinking of the huge benefits Luo Chen could bring to him, his originally gloomy mood couldn't help but feel better.
He stroked his beard and planned to replace the middle-grade spiritual stone in the corner and continue healing.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly.
A piece of jade that transmits sound is emitting light fiercely.
"Xieyue Valley was attacked!"
The next moment, he jumped out of the secret room.
After scanning his spiritual sense, he immediately notified the Mi family members.
Soon, the late-stage monks headed by Mi Junping and Mi Zifan gathered over one after another.
"Dad, what's wrong?"
"Grandpa, you are out of seclusion!"
Mi Shuhua glanced at everyone, paused for a moment at the man next to a woman, and then fell on Mi Junping.
"Something happened over there in Xianyue Valley."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed.
Mi Junping was shocked and confused.
Mi Zifan looked happy.
The expression of the middle-aged man next to Mi Junpei changed drastically. His father was the deacon of Xieyue Valley Dantang.
"The five major Qi Refining Ninth Levels, leading hundreds of monks, are currently besieging Xianyue Valley."
Mi Shuhua said slowly, but there was no trace of anxiety on his face.
Under his influence, the previously turbulent Mi family monks gradually stabilized.
Mi Junping said without hesitation: "Dan Tang and Yaotang are one of the two most important halls of the Poshan Gang, especially Dan Tang. The chalcedony pills refined this month are extremely profitable. We must Rescue!"
"It must be saved, but how to save it depends on strategy."
Mi Shuhua narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately issued the order.
"Inform Wang Yuan, Zeng Wen, and Qiu Wu, who has just taken up the post of war hall, to lead people to rescue Xianyue Valley!"
Mi Junping nodded, turned around and went to inform others.
After he left, someone suddenly said: "Father-in-law, it should be faster if you go in person!"
Mi Shuhua smiled slightly and said, "Yuanhong, are you worried about your father?"
Sikong Yuanhong nodded quickly, with a worried look on his face. "My father is old and not good at fighting. I'm afraid something will happen to him."
"There's no need to worry about this. He has quite a lot of combat experience and is good at protecting himself wisely. He won't make any mistakes for a while."
"As for me taking action?"
Mi Shuhua chuckled lightly, "They are just some Jie cultivators who are fishing in troubled waters and taking advantage of others. The experts in the gang can handle them without my intervention."
Hearing what he said, Sikong Yuanhong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
My father-in-law, a master of foundation building, is so confident that nothing serious will happen to him.
In the last fight between the two gangs, Mi Shuhua, the foundation builder, never made a move from beginning to end, but in the end, the Poshan Gang won a complete victory!
But he didn't notice the shadow in the corner of Mi Shuhua's eyes.
What kind of robbery cultivator can fish in troubled waters and organize a powerful lineup of hundreds of people?
Suddenly, rapid footsteps were heard outside the hall.
Mi Junping left and came back!
She looked panicked, "Dad, it's not good, the other halls are also under fierce attack."
