"Friend Pastor, are you sure?"
Zhao Yongqi showed a concerned look.
"I can't guarantee it." Mu Yangqiu shook his head and said, "But I once had the secret technique of sneaking, so I just want to try it."
Muyang Qiumao then recommended himself.
It was to enhance his status in the Zhao family.
His comments generally refer to ordinary people, but ordinary people can escape from the internal fighting in the family, have been living as a casual cultivator for more than ten years, and marry a wife and have children, so it can be seen that ordinary people must have their own unique way of survival.
Stand up now.
It was also him who sized up the situation and thought twice.
"Be careful after entering the valley. If you can't do anything, remember to put your own safety first." Zhao Yongqi warned carefully.
"Thank you, Patriarch, for your concern."
Mu Yangqiu nodded.
Then I saw him pinching a strange seal, and gray spiritual light spread out from the seal, covering his whole body in an instant.
Under the eyes of the cultivators.
Mu Yangqiu disappeared completely.
"Hey, invisibility?"
"It's not an invisibility spell, it's some kind of special breath-shielding spell. It seems to also affect the senses of bystanders."
"This spell is at least level seven."
soon.
The cultivators discovered that Mu Yangqiu was not completely invisible.
His body just became slightly illusory, and his aura completely disappeared, and his sense of presence suddenly decreased a lot.
Even though Zhao used Qi Gang to talk to the other party.
After Mu Yangqiu performed the spell, he was suddenly affected by the spell, which made him feel as if Mu Yangqiu had disappeared.
Until he reacted.
He concentrated on searching for Mu Yangqiu's figure, only to realize that the other party had been within his field of vision and had not moved at all, but he subconsciously ignored him.
"Clan leader, I'm going."
Mu Yangqiu spoke and made a sound.
Until this moment, many monks present were still looking around at a loss and could not find his location.
This shows how powerful this technique is.
"It's simply an excellent technique for being an assassin."
Zhao Yongqi stared intently at the other party's back as he entered the valley, thinking silently in his heart.
Mu Yangqiu quickly disappeared into the mist.
Zhao Yongqi was not idle, and immediately arranged for cultivators to start setting up formations outside the valley to prevent any sudden accidents.
All the Zhao family possesses are ninth-grade formations.
The only eighth-level formation, the Faro Ice Fighting God Formation, was destroyed during the ambush of Mo Xindao, and because he was afraid of exposing his identity due to the formation, he simply destroyed it.
soon.
With the assistance of several monks who have studied the art of battle.
Zhao Yongqi successively arranged the Small Thousand Machines and Hundreds of Illusions Formation, the Small Star Wheel and Seven Lights Formation, and the Small Luochen Holy Light Formation.
That’s why there are small letters before the name of the formation.
This is because they are all simplified formations of higher grades. Among them, the Small Star Wheel Qiyao Formation is a trapping formation, and the other two formations are defensive formations.
It stands to reason.
Formations can be nested layer by layer, one within another.
But he must be a master of formations to arrange it like that. Otherwise, if he is not proficient in formations, it will lead to disorder of earth energy and conflict of formations.
Zhao Yongqi and other monks from the Zhao family.
Obviously there is no such person as a formation master.
We can only honestly find three different positions and arrange the formations respectively.
Among them, the Small Star Wheel Qiyao Formation is closest to the entrance of the valley.
Zhao Chongyi, who has perfected his Qi training, is in charge of the formation. The other two defensive formations are in the rear. The formation is in charge of Zhao Chongmao and Zhao Yongqi respectively. The three formations stand against each other in a triangle.
In each formation, there are some monks remaining.
"Recuperate on the spot and pay attention to vigilance."
After the formation was arranged, many monks finally no longer had to be on guard all the time and could barely relax a little.
Don't look at the many monsters they encountered on the way.
In fact, we are still on the outskirts of the Xiyuan Mountains.
The beauty of Xiyuan Mountain.
It is only slightly inferior to Weishan, and because there is no large-scale immortal cultivating force to rectify, Xiyuan Mountain is full of dark and humid dense forests, and countless poisonous monsters form a unique food chain.
That is because the entrance to the mine exists.
This area has been plowed many times by the Spirit Snake Sect, which has resulted in the surrounding trees becoming sparse and the monster beasts almost extinct.
"Clan leader, there are six monks coming towards us."
Zhao Yongqi looked towards the mouth of the valley, waiting for Mu Yangqiu, when Zhao Chongxue suddenly came to him and said.
There are Zhao family monks patrolling around the formation.
It was Zhao Chongxue who was responsible for arranging this matter.
Therefore, if there is any abnormality, it will be reported to Zhao Chongxue as soon as possible, and then Zhao Chongxue will inform Zhao Yongqi.
"What kind of cultivation is it?" Zhao Yongqi asked.
"In order to avoid disturbing others, I didn't use the Sky Eye Technique to check, but according to the tribesmen who came here to report, they should have cultivated during the Qi Refining Period." Zhao Chongxue replied.
Zhao Yongqi thought briefly.
A decision was quickly made: "Let Deacon Chongmao bring more people over and ask them clearly what their purpose is."
Zhao Yongqi's eyes were filled with coldness.
There was a pause.
Finally he said: "If they are innocent, let them go. If they can't explain clearly..."
"Just leave them here first and don't easily conflict with them."
Let's change it to his solitary character.
They must have been killed and not spared. If they smell danger, they will nip it in the bud.
But as the head of the Zhao family.
He had to think about whether his every move would have an impact on the Zhao family.
There is no airtight wall in the world.
Especially in recent years, the Zhao family has absorbed many casual cultivators, so many things cannot be solved simply by killing.
After all, the more you kill, the more you kill.
Make more enemies.
The public opinion from the outside world is even worse.
With the current size of the Zhao family, it is far from being completely indifferent to public opinion. It is estimated that only seventh-grade clans such as Qianzhong Alliance can completely ignore the rumors in the public and do things based on their own wishes.
...
soon.
Zhao Chongmao brought six monks.
Four men and two women.
Zhao Yongqi glanced at three monks in the late stage of Qi training and three monks in the middle stage of Qi training.
"What are you doing here?"
Zhao Yongqi scanned them with his Insight Technique. They were all common comments such as seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, being lustful, and decisive in killing. Only one person's comments were slightly special.
"Clan Leader Zhao, we are monks from the Liu Chu Alliance, and we are here to hunt monsters this time."
"The Zhao family won't be so overbearing that they even care about this, right?"
The leader is a middle-aged female cultivator with an eleventh level of Qi cultivation, and is the highest among the six.
His words did not look down upon the Zhao family at all.
It was as if the Zhao family monk in front of her was like a chicken or a dog in her eyes.
[Body in Cao Ying, but his heart is in Han]
The middle-aged female cultivator's comments made Zhao Yongqi think a lot. He was in the Cao camp and his heart was in the Han Dynasty. This meant...
She appears to be from Liu Chumeng.
Actually it's not?
A spy?
"So I'm from Liu Chumeng, don't you know your surname?" Zhao Yongqi didn't pay attention to her tone.
"The surname is Liu."
The middle-aged female cultivator is quite arrogant.
The other five monks who followed her didn't have as big a heart as hers. The other five Liu Chumeng monks looked at the Zhao family monks who were watching eagerly around them, with smiles and fear on their faces.
"Senior Sister Liu, please stop saying a few words."
Another late-stage qi-training monk stood up. He was afraid that the middle-aged female cultivator would offend Zhao Yongqi, so he apologized: "Clan leader Zhao, we are from the Liu Chu League. This time we are here to hunt monsters. I didn't know that the Zhao family was here. Please don't blame the clan leader." .”
"It doesn't matter."
Zhao Yongqi waved his hand carelessly.
In his mind, he quickly analyzed the group of six people in front of him.
Judging from the positions between them, the young monk with the lowest cultivation level is faintly surrounded in the middle, and it seems that they are protecting the young monk.
The young monk was about fifteen or sixteen years old.
She looked quite shy, like a girl, lowering her head and grabbing her clothes without saying a word.
That is to say.
This shy monk was the most important among the six.
Looking at the six people in front of him.
Zhao Yongqi smelled a strong atmosphere of conspiracy.
First of all, it can be confirmed that the six people must know the existence of the Zhao family. It can be judged from their expressions that except for the middle-aged female cultivator surnamed Liu, the other five people should not want to meet the Zhao family.
And that middle-aged female nun might be a spy.
He also brought a person who seemed to be important.
"It doesn't matter. Let us go quickly. Our Liu Chu League also has foundation-building monks in charge. This person is a direct blood relative of our Liu Chu League's foundation-building monks!"
"Senior Sister Liu, do you know what you are talking about!"
"Why didn't I know that the Spirit Snake Sect bullied us in the beginning? Do we want the Zhao family to continue to do this?"
Looking at the farce in front of me.
Zhao Yongqi's heart was as calm as water.
The middle-aged female cultivator seemed to be thinking of ways to anger herself, and also deliberately pointed out the importance of the young monks. Maybe these five people were also deliberately lured to the vicinity of Zhao's house by the middle-aged female cultivator.
Purpose......
The purpose is to cause a conflict between the Zhao family and Liu Chumeng.
So...if the two really conflict, who is most beneficial?
Zhao Yongqi was thinking in his heart, with a calm expression on his face, and said slowly: "Since fellow Taoists do not want to stay for a long time, Zhao cannot force you, but it is best not to stay nearby."
Zhao Yongqi didn't know who set the trap for the Zhao family.
Although he has several goals, he can't confirm them yet, but since it may be a conspiracy, he can just do the opposite.
originally.
He wasn't prepared to do anything to these people.
"How dare you not let us go..."
The middle-aged female cultivator was about to say something, but she suddenly reacted. She was stunned for a moment and still questioned: "You really let us leave?"
"Are you planning to ambush us on the road?"
at last.
The more she spoke, the more confident she became, with a proud look on her face, as if she really thought she had guessed Zhao Yongqi's thoughts.
"If you don't want to leave, you can stay."
Zhao Yongqi was expressionless.
"We won't leave, let's see what you dare to do to us..."
The middle-aged female cultivator wanted to say something, but was suddenly interrupted by a fellow disciple next to her: "Senior Sister Liu, if you want to stay, you can stay. We're leaving first."
She hasn't reacted yet.
Then I saw the other five fellow students leaving quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Liu, why don't you stay here by yourself? The Zhao family will definitely treat me as a distinguished guest."
Before she could say anything.
Zhao Yongqi's voice faintly reached his ears.
The middle-aged female cultivator couldn't help but shudder.
He hurriedly followed the other five people: "Hey, wait for me."
...
"Clan leader, this woman speaks so meanly, why don't you teach her a lesson?"
Wait until the figures of the six people completely disappear.
Zhao Chongxue finally spoke angrily.
Just now it was difficult for her to interrupt because Zhao Yongqi was present, but the middle-aged female cultivator surnamed Liu really made her very angry. Not only Zhao Chongxue, but all the cultivators nearby were eager to silence her.
"You do not understand."
Zhao Yongqi shook his head, and without saying much, directly arranged: "Send someone to follow them to ensure that they leave this place."
If it weren't for the insight technique.
Zhao Yongqi might also feel that the female cultivator surnamed Liu has such a nature, so he would take action to give her a heart.
The Zhao family seems a little aggrieved by this situation now.
But the middle-aged female cultivator will not have an easy time after returning to Liu Chumeng.
There was no need for Zhao Yongqi to take action himself. Liu Chumeng would have punished her internally.
What Zhao Yongqi really cares about is.
Who does the female cultivator surnamed Liu belong to? Is the person behind the scenes plotting against the Zhao family or Liu Chumeng?
...
"careful."
Another tea time has passed.
Following a loud roar in the valley, Mu Yangqiu jumped out of the thick fog.
The magic that concealed his aura has disappeared.
Instead, there was a rich green aura on his legs. He took one step forward and was several feet away. He jumped out of the valley in a few breaths.
And behind him.
There were two familiar green monsters following closely behind them, it was the Demon Sword Mantis that they had just encountered not long ago.
"Enter the formation."
Zhao Chongyi presides over the Small Star Wheel Qiyao Formation.
When Mu Yangqiu first appeared, he realized what was happening and immediately called out and activated the formation at full strength.
Mu Yangqiu moved upon hearing the sound.
The green light on his legs became brighter, and his figure became a little faster, rushing into the formation in an instant.
The two demon sword mantises were in hot pursuit.
Almost the relationship between the front and back legs followed Mu Yangqiu into the formation.
"Well come."
Zhao Chongyi shouted angrily, holding the formation disk, and with a movement of his mind, a faint starlight fell on the Demon Sword Mantis. It was visible to the naked eye that their speed was much slower, and at the same time, chains of starlight were condensed in the formation.
He bundled up towards the Demon Sword Mantis and headed away.
"grumble......"
The demon sword mantis made a strange cry, and its two pairs of transparent wings trembled slightly.
A pair of sawtooth forelimbs that were longer than the body were swung, and layers of knife light condensed on the sawtooth forelimbs and ejected, smashing all the nearby starlight chains into pieces.
This is why its speed is controlled.
Otherwise, once it can move around, the power it unleashes will be more than just that.
"Do it."
The formation is just an auxiliary.
Following Zhao Chongyi's order, the surrounding monks who had been waiting for him immediately launched various magical weapons.
Nearly twenty magical weapons surrounded the two demon sword mantises that had slowed down.
Naturally, it is something that can be easily captured.
In an instant, with a harsh whine, the two demon sword mantises turned into corpses.
"Fellow Pastor, are you not injured?"
At the first sight of Mu Yangqiu, Zhao Yongqi immediately asked with concern.
"Thanks to the clan chief."
Mu Yangqiu smiled.
"I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Mu is not only good at sneaking, but his movement skills are even inferior to that of the Demon Sword Mantis."
Zhao Yongqi admired it from the bottom of his heart.
Ordinary wind control skills would never be able to match the speed of Demon Sword Mantis. Mu Yangqiu looked ordinary, but he didn't expect to master many secret skills.
It’s about personal privacy.
Zhao Yongqi didn't say much, but asked directly: "I wonder what the scene is like in this valley. Can fellow Taoist pastor find out?"
"This place... seems to have become the nest of the demon sword mantis."
Mu Yangqiu frowned and said with some fear: "There are at least thirty or forty demon sword mantises inside."
