Chapter 293: Sneaking Into the Night with the Wind
The injured people of Shenyin Palace fled, and they could still hear the girl's shouting from a distance. It seemed that she was very angry.
"That girl seems to be the descendant of an elder of Shenyin Palace. She seems to be spoiled." Fenghuayuan shook his head and laughed.
This kind of behavior of saying harsh words when you can't win is really childish in their eyes. If harsh words are useful, why practice? The two camps have been fighting for so many years, and they are incompatible with each other. If they really have the ability to kill people, no one wants to waste their breath.
So no matter how fierce the girl's shouting was, the few people didn't take it to heart.
However, only one day later, the few people received a message that their own guard mission required them to return to the base quickly, and a large number of monks from Shenyin Palace were about to attack.
The few people were a little dumbfounded, and they all remembered the shouting of the girl before she left. They thought she was just saying a few harsh words when she couldn't win, but who would have thought that she really had the ability to let Gu Canyang lead people to attack Shenyin Palace.
Several people felt that they had underestimated the girl's status in the Hidden Palace. They did not dare to hide anything and reported what had happened before.
In response, Yue Mei, the garrison commander of Fenghuayuan, did not say much, but simply replied that she knew.
The monks of Fenghuayuan who received the news rushed back to the garrison. The atmosphere was not tense. With the protective formation, they were still very relieved. It was not that the Hidden Palace had not attacked before, but each time they came with great momentum and left in disgrace.
Soon, another piece of news spread.
This time, it was not only the Hidden Palace that attacked their garrison. Lingyun Palace also took action. A group of people were rushing here. I think the two families had contacted each other in advance.
In the Tianji Palace, Yue Mei, the garrison commander of Fenghuayuan, looked at the intelligence just transmitted from outside with a calm expression. It was expected that the two Haotian League forces would attack at the same time.
Like her fellow juniors, she was not worried that her own protective formation would be broken. What she needed to consider now was whether these two families were just pretending to come here or had other intentions. If it was the former, she didn't need to worry too much, but if it was the latter, she had to be more careful. At the very least, she had to be mentally prepared to fight the enemy for a long time.
After a moment of hesitation, she sent out a few messages, and soon, several other Wanmo Ridge forces nearby knew that Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall had sent troops to attack Fenghuayuan.
Yue Mei's move was not to ask for help. It didn't make much sense to ask for help at this time. It was just that the Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall were empty at the moment. Once these Wanmo Ridge forces learned of this, they would definitely take action, and then they could put pressure on Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall, so that they could retreat earlier.
Things like besieging Wei to save Zhao often happen in the Lingxi battlefield. At this time, forces in the same camp not far away will help each other.
After waiting for half a day, until the evening, two flying spiritual weapons in the shape of large ships appeared side by side in the sight of the monks of Fenghuayuan.
One of the ships had the logo of Shenyin Palace on its bow, and the other had the logo of Lingyun Palace.
The two large ships hovered about three miles away from the Fenghuayuan station, and figures came out one after another from the large ships.
In the Fenghuayuan station, Yue Mei, who was suspended in the air, urged her eyes to look around, her face slightly solemn.
She found that the two families of Haotian League had sent out a lot of people, each with at least 400 people.
You should know that the staff in the station of the inner circle sect is generally around 500 to 600. If 400 were sent out at once, only 100 people would be left to guard the station.
Yue Mei immediately understood that this battle would definitely not end so easily.
Could it be that as those disciples reported, the descendants of the elder of Shenyin Palace encouraged Gu Canyang to do this? Is Gu Canyang so stupid?
She felt something was not right, but it was meaningless to think about it now. The soldiers of the two Haotian Alliances were approaching the city, and Fenghuayuan had no choice but to fight.
The monks of Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall gathered together, with a total number of nearly 800 people, which was the maximum number of people that the two could mobilize.
On the other hand, Fenghuayuan had only more than 400 people.
Originally, Fenghuayuan also had about 500 monks, but Chu Qing led the team to suffer heavy losses in Xianyuan City before, and nearly 100 people were wiped out, which led to the direct loss of nearly 20% of Fenghuayuan's manpower. Yue Mei couldn't sleep at night every time she thought of this.
Nearly 800 monks, led by Gu Canyang and Zhou Pei, attacked Fenghuayuan's base in a mighty manner.
Without any prelude or verbal confrontation, when the 800 monks arrived outside the formation, the attack began.
The light of magic and flying instruments began to dance, bombarding the light curtain of the formation, as if stones were dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples on the light curtain.
The formation hummed, and Yue Mei stood in front of the Tianji Hall Square, holding the formation jade, adjusting and controlling the protective power of the formation.
At the same time, at the locations of the formation bases, there were cultivators from Fenghuayuan constantly filling spiritual stones, allowing the formation to draw the power of spiritual stones to replenish itself.
Although the formation itself usually stores a large amount of spiritual power, no one knows how long the attack of Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall will last this time. Borrowing spiritual stones to replenish the consumption of the formation will undoubtedly allow the formation to last longer.
No matter which force, they will choose to do this when their base is attacked.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Fenghuayuan's base is very rich. It seems that the blessing of the Tianji Pillar is quite strong, so the formation is very solid. Nearly 800 people from the two major forces of Haotian League attacked continuously in batches for half an hour, but the formation remained motionless. Except for the continuous ripples, even the luster of the light curtain of the formation did not change much.
And this is obviously not the limit of the formation.
Across the light curtain of the formation, Yue Mei looked at Gu Canyang and Zhou Pei expressionlessly, and was a little confused about what the two were going to do.
They had fought each other many times and knew each other well. Yue Mei did not believe that the two would do useless work together, but she did not find anything suspicious, which made her feel a little uneasy.
The unknown is the biggest enemy.
Fortunately, she had spread the news before that several Wanmo Ridge forces had begun to gather and attack the Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Palace bases, and they should be on the way now.
As long as Gu Canyang and Zhou Pei received the news, they would not dare to stay here any longer, and would definitely retreat.
Just as she was thinking this, a trace of abnormality suddenly came out from the jade pendant. As the person who controlled the formation, she could sense the changes in various parts of the formation through the jade pendant in her hand. The abnormality just now was as if the formation was broken in a certain direction.
Yue Mei's color suddenly changed, and she turned her head to look in that direction, but she could see that the light curtain of the formation at that position was as stable as before.
Illusion? Yue Mei was not sure. She was always cautious and immediately pointed out a team of people to investigate the abnormality.
At the same time, somewhere in the formation, Lu Ye had quietly sneaked in.
The abnormality that Yue Mei felt was the movement when he sneaked in. He could not do this at ordinary times.
But it was night at this moment, and the attention of the monks in Fenghuayuan was attracted by Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall. Who could still notice him?
After sneaking into the Fenghuayuan station, he immediately activated the power of the Annihilation Bracelet on his hand to restrain his breath and hide his whereabouts.
If it weren't for this life-saving item given by Madam Yun, Lu Ye would never dare to do this. Even if he now has the ability to break into other people's protective formations, his whereabouts will be exposed soon.
But with the Annihilation Bracelet, it is different. After all, it is a gift from Madam Yun, and its concealment ability is much stronger than those ghost cultivators.
In the plan he and Gu Canyang made, Shenyin Palace and Lingyun Hall were responsible for the frontal assault on the formation, to contain the energy and attention of the Fenghuayuan cultivators, and he would wait for an opportunity to sneak in, hide his body, and then find an opportunity to kill Yue Mei and take her jade. As long as the jade was in hand, the protective formation would become a complete decoration.
This plan is very simple, but sometimes simplicity can win. The more complicated the plan, the more flaws it has, and the easier it is to make mistakes.
For the time being, everything is going smoothly. His means of sneaking into the formation and the Annihilation Bracelet are a perfect match. In order to hide himself perfectly, he didn't even bring Amber and Yiyi this time.
He stood there and waited quietly for a moment. As expected, a team of Fenghuayuan monks came over in a hurry.
When he communicated with Wei Li before, he learned a piece of information, that is, when he sneaked into the formation, Wei Li could sense some abnormalities, but that was all. If Wei Li hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't be sure what kind of abnormality it was.
So Lu Ye knew that after he sneaked into the Fenghuayuan's residence, someone would definitely come to investigate.
There were six monks in this team. After checking around and finding nothing, they quickly left and investigated the surrounding area.
Lu Ye didn't move, because in his perception, there was something wrong with a dozen feet away, and there seemed to be some vitality flowing there.
In the past, he couldn't sense these, but after refining his soul in the soul washing pool, his perception ability was greatly improved.
Any movement within a radius of more than ten feet could not be hidden from his perception. The closer he was to him, the more obvious his perception was.
It should be a ghost cultivator!
The garrison commander of Fenghuayuan was indeed a cautious person. On the surface, there was only one team of people coming to investigate, but in fact there were two groups. If Lu Ye had acted rashly just now, his whereabouts would have been exposed at this moment.
The ghost cultivator wandered around for a while, found nothing, and then left. From beginning to end, Lu Ye did not see him.
After the ghost cultivator left, Lu Ye waited for another incense stick of time before taking action.
The effect of the Annihilation Bracelet in hiding the body is very powerful, but there is only one disadvantage, that is, it cannot activate spiritual power and cannot move. Once the spiritual power is activated or moved, the figure will be revealed immediately.
Lu Ye is not sure if there are still people hiding nearby, but if his whereabouts are really exposed, he can only retreat the same way.
Since he can come in, he can naturally retreat.
