Chapter 289 The golden cicada escapes from its shell
After Lu Yuanfeng discussed with everyone, he immediately wrote back a letter to Wu Xiang on the mountain, agreeing to his request, but asking them to open the formation tomorrow night.
At midnight on the second day, Song Qingming and others, who had been prepared in advance at the foot of the mountain, saw a sudden commotion on the Eagle's Nest Ridge, followed by the mountain protection formation that had blocked them for half a month flashing in the air. After a few clicks, it disappeared.
"The mountain protection formation has been closed. It seems that Wu Xiang has succeeded. Everyone will follow me and fight up. Except for those with white ribbons around their waists, no one will be left behind." Following Lu Yuanfeng's order, everyone hiding under the mountain More than a hundred monks, led by Song Qingming and several other foundation-building monks, went directly to Eagle's Nest Ridge.
In this attack on the mountain, except for the dozen or so people who were left to guard the mountain, all the monks were divided into four teams and outflanked them in four different directions. The teams were not far apart, and as long as something happened on one side Support from other directions in the battle will soon arrive. As long as nothing goes wrong with this arrangement, not even a mouse on the mountain can even think of running down, let alone a human.
Not long after they ran up the mountain, a group of monks led by Gao Jinhe and Gao Yubai suddenly saw a dozen monks running down the mountain in a hurry. Seeing that these people had white ribbons tied around their waists, Gao Jinhe stepped forward to stop them. They, but did not choose to fight with them. Lu Yuanfeng had made an agreement with Wu Xiang before, and those with white ribbons around their waists would be his subordinates.
"Where is your boss Wu Xiang, and what's going on up there now?" After stopping these people, Gao Jinhe asked sharply when he saw that these dozen people were all Qi Refining Stage monks.
"Boss Wu is behind us. The people on the mountain have already chased us down. Please ask senior to help us get down the mountain quickly."
After being stopped, these people were very panicked, fearing that Gao Jinhe and the others would take action against them, and just wanted to escape from here.
"No one is allowed to go down the mountain casually. We will wait until your boss comes to confirm his identity." After Gao Jinhe said this, he asked his men to take care of these people.
Not long after, two rays of sword light suddenly flew down from the mountain. The one in the lead was wearing a bamboo hat on his head and a white ribbon on his waist. He was holding on to his waist and seemed to be running away with some injuries. He was chasing him not far behind him. The person is none other than Cheng Yilong from Yingchao Ridge.
"Wu Xiang, you idiot who stabbed my brother in the back, let's see where you run." At this moment, Cheng Yilong looked like he was gnashing his teeth and furious. He wanted to catch up with Wu Xiang in front of him and crush him to ashes.
Wu Xiang was injured, which greatly affected his escape speed. He was caught up by Cheng Yilong not long after he moved forward, and the two sides fought in the air for dozens of rounds.
Seeing that Wu Xiang, who was already injured, was being beaten by Cheng Yilong and was about to suffer a big loss, Gao Jinhe and Gao Yubai hurried forward to help stop Cheng Yilong.
"Two fellow Taoists, this guy is Cheng Yilong. Most of the goods robbed from Qinghefang this time are on him. You must not let this person go." Seeing someone helping, Wu Xiang hurriedly hid behind Gao Jinhe. He pointed at Cheng Yilong who was chasing him and shouted loudly.
As soon as he shouted, the Gao family's attention was immediately focused on Cheng Yilong.
With just a blink of an eye, Wu Xiang, who was already seriously injured, suddenly showed a strange smile and used a golden talisman at close range to trap the two Gao family members.
"Damn! This person is not Wu Xiang."
Gao Jinhe was also very surprised when he saw Wu Xiang behind him suddenly making a cruel move. They were so eager to save people just now that they didn't even notice that the man under the bamboo hat was not Wu Xiang at all, but Chen Zicong pretending to be him.
The two members of the Gao family were suddenly shrouded in a golden light, and they quickly used their magic weapons to quickly break the golden light, but found that the spells they used were like mud being thrown into the sea, and did not have much effect.
Seeing that he succeeded with one blow, Chen Zicong smiled and said to Cheng Yilong who was coming over: "Boss Cheng, my acting skills are not bad, otherwise it would not be easy to trap them at such a close range."
"Don't be too happy first. It's not certain whether we can escape smoothly. The Purple Light Talisman can't hold them back for too long. Let's retreat quickly!" After Cheng Yilong finished speaking, he and Chen Zicong directly commanded the large number of people who were following behind. The monk quickly ran straight down the mountain.
After discovering that Wu Xiang betrayed them and contacted Yamashita, Cheng Yilong and Chen Zicong secretly discussed it and came up with such an escape plan for Jin Chan to escape.
Taking advantage of this opportunity of Wu Xiang's surrender, they deliberately opened the formation and pretended to be defeated by Wu Xiang. Then they performed the same play and successfully borrowed a second-level medium-grade spiritual talisman to pass the Gao family's challenge. , as for the real Wu Xiang and his subordinates, they had already been killed directly on the mountain.
The group of monks brought by the Gao family was obviously no match for so many monks in Yingchao Ridge, and they were quickly dispersed.
Not long after Cheng Yilong rushed down the mountain with nearly a hundred of his men, people from other directions had already noticed the movement and came to support the Gao family.
Seeing the robbers swarming down from Yingchao Ridge, Song Qingming and others paled instantly. They did not expect that the Gao family would be restrained so quickly. This made the encirclement and suppression plan planned by everyone at the beginning The strategy evaporated in an instant.
The matter was over, and now it was time to explore the cause. After helping the Gao family escape, everyone quickly directed their subordinates to chase the numerous bandit cultivators not far away.
Because everyone brought here this time are elite monks who are in the late stage of Qi refining and above. The strength of the monks themselves is much higher than that of the Eagle's Nest Ridge. The speed of pursuit is naturally faster than their escape speed. Not surprisingly, even these bandit cultivators Now that I can escape down the mountain, it is also difficult to escape their pursuit.
It is not difficult to deal with the following Qi Refining Bandit Cultivators. The ones that are a little difficult to deal with are Cheng Yilong and Chen Zicong, the two leading foundation-building cultivators. Once these two people escape, they will flatten the Eagle's Nest Ridge today, and it will be very difficult. It is difficult to say that they have completely won. As long as they are still alive, they can gather a group of bandit cultivators in another place for a long time. This leaves a big hidden danger for Qinghefang. Maybe Qinghefang will be attacked again in the future. of this kind of thing.
After seeing Cheng Yilong and Chen Zicong running ahead, Lu Yuanfeng quickly assigned everyone their respective pursuit tasks.
The Gao family, Lu Xingde, and the foundation-building monk from the Cao family were all responsible for intercepting Chen Zicong. The Huang family, Lu Yuanfeng and Song Qingming chased after Cheng Yilong.
