Chapter 297 Mission Completed. (The Third Update! Please Subscribe!)
Meijiabao.
In the Wubao Arrow Tower, the icy light of arrow clusters flashed from time to time, and the sense of austerity permeated.
The surrounding moat is still black and heavy.
A thing in the water used to prevent the enemy from sneaking over, lingering and cruising, bringing a touch of weird waves from time to time.
When the wind passed by, the spiritual plants all over the fortress walls were filled with a bloody atmosphere.
On the wall, while the runes were flashing, dozens of puppets continued to patrol.
The clan protection formation has been reopened, but no one is seen up and down the Meijiabao.
The place where Mei's old Patriarch retreated was full of thorns, branches, broken leaves, and a mess.
Many traps, curses, and rune arrows have all been triggered, and there are traces of spells everywhere.
The ground was potholed, and the courtyard wall engraved with runes was also dilapidated.
Flames, toxins, ghosts, withering... and other traces are dotted all over.
After the war, it was devastated.
The original rockery has long been razed to the ground. In the remaining secret room, the old head of the family, Mei Cheng, is sitting on a futon. Since he woke up, he has never left the place.
Its aura is still strong, but in the midst of its prosperity, there is a sense of decay that is about to die.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
Huo Zhaojing vomited blood, knelt on one knee, and looked at the old Patriarch with shock, puzzlement, and regret.
Mei Cheng remained expressionless, and said indifferently: "When I was still in the inner sect of Chongming Sect, I was just like you. I don't know the heights of heaven and earth!"
"If it wasn't for offending people who shouldn't be offended and leaving behind old illnesses, he would have already entered alchemy."
"You, a junior who has just entered the late stage of Foundation Establishment, dare to come and challenge this old man?"
Hearing this, Huo Zhaojing swallowed the elixir to recover from his injuries, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Senior Mei to have this level of strength when his lifespan is approaching. This is a step I missed..."
"However, senior is old after all, and now there is not much left in the original source. If you continue to attack, how many more hours can you live?"
"My current strength is indeed inferior to that of my predecessors."
"But the one who loses in the end must be the senior!"
Having said that, Huo Zhaojing didn't intend to continue to do it at all.
The old Patriarch Mei's lifespan is indeed approaching, but because of this, the current opponent is the most dangerous!
It really drives people to a dead end, and if they can't say it, they will desperately pull themselves on the road together!
Thinking of this, Huo Zhaojing was secretly annoyed.
His original plan was to sneak into Meijiabao and secretly slaughter the entire Mei family.
Then, peel off the skin of the old Patriarch, and use it to disguise his identity, and welcome the disciples of Chongming Sect to throw themselves into the net!
But he didn't expect that the old Patriarch Mei was so old and cunning, his cultivation base was already half-step alchemy, but he kept it secret all the time, and always claimed to the outside world that he was only in the late stage of foundation establishment.
In the case of serious unequal information, Huo Zhaojing fell for this old man on the spot, and before he ambush the disciples of Chong Ming Sect, he injured himself first!
With a gloomy face, he sent a voice transmission to the other juniors and juniors, asking, "The rest of the Mei family, have you solved it?"
"According to senior brother's order, except for the one who came out of the castle to meet us just now, everything else has been resolved."
Huo Zhao nodded and smiled coldly.
This Old Patriarch Mei is indeed powerful, but so what?
The opponent's lifespan is scarce now, so he cannot move easily.
Right now, the other members of the Mei clan have all been eliminated, and this Mei family castle can still be used by them to set up traps!
"Then proceed according to the original plan." Huo Zhaojing said through voice transmission, then stared at the old Patriarch Mei, and retreated step by step.
Until Huo Zhaojing was completely out of his sight, Patriarch Mei never made a move.
He looked indifferent, as if he was just a sculpture.
※※※
After a day and a night.
A convoy appeared outside Meijiabao.
There were a lot fewer members of the Mei clan than when they set off, carefully surrounding the two mended cages.
By the side of the convoy, a bloody sedan chair was carried by no one, but it was crossing in the air.
A picture of ghosts traveling at night is engraved on the sash of the blood sedan chair, and numerous skulls hang down from the four corners like beads.
There is a face on each of the eight sides of the sedan chair. Men, women, old and young are all lifelike, with blood and tears in their eyes.
On the back wall, there is a poisonous dragon nailed with its teeth and claws.
Pei Ling and his party traveled through mountains and rivers and finally arrived at their destination.
"Main Master, we'll be here soon." Jin Sumian reminded Pei Ling who was in the sedan chair through sound transmission, "Meijiabao is ahead."
Hearing this, Pei Ling had a thought, and the human skin car curtain rolled up automatically without wind, revealing the scene in front of him.
It was a heavily fortified and heavily guarded dock.
Overall, it looks quite similar to the Xuanjiabao and Mojiabao seen along the way, but the scale is smaller and the level of vigilance is higher.
Given where May is now, this is not surprising.
Pei Ling nodded slightly, finally arrived at the place, Huang Quanmu was still alive, so he had to hand it over to Mrs. Mei quickly.
Thinking of this, he ordered: "Don't waste time, speed up!"
"Yes!" Jin Su Mian replied.
Soon, the team no longer cared about the power of their feet and galloped fast.
It didn't take long to arrive at the fort.
Seeing that no one appeared in the castle, Pei Ling said loudly: "Pei Ling from Chongming Sect and Sang lineage, escort the three pterosaurs and Huangquanmu here! The Mei family, check the goods quickly!"
There was no movement on the fort.
After a while, the formation suddenly opened, and at the same time, a group of members of the Ganmei clan also appeared on the wall of Wubao.
The person in the lead looks pale and pale, and there are many people in fine clothes by his side. It was the head of the Mei family and a group of elders. Smiling, they looked down at the convoy below.
When Mei Keqiu saw the Patriarch and the others, he quickly stepped forward to salute: "Patriarch, the elders of the family, but fortunately, Qiu did not disgrace her life. The three winged wolves and Huang Quanmu are all in the car."
"Not bad, not bad." Patriarch Mei nodded slightly, and said, "Please enter the castle quickly, the time of your arrival has already been counted in the castle, prepare food and wine, and clean up the dust for you!"
"Go in." Pei Ling ordered.
This mission is for Pill Fire.
After they transported the three winged wolves and Huangquanmu to the Mei family, they had to collect the pill fire from the Mei family.
So naturally there is no reason to communicate outside the fort.
Amidst the creaking sound, the gate of Wubao was slowly lowered by the arm-thick chains, and hit heavily on the bank of the moat, across the river.
Pei Ling got out of the bloody puppet sedan, stood by the suspension bridge, and urged the convoy to cross the river and enter the fort.
In the end, he took Jin Sumian and the other three to follow behind the convoy and also walked into Meijiabao.
As soon as the group of people stood still in Weng City after entering the fort, the gate behind them was immediately lifted again, and at the same time, the formation was closed.
Seeing the Mei family members come down from the fort wall, Pei Ling stepped forward to hand over.
Originally thought that the Huangquan wood was seriously damaged, and the Mei clan would definitely take advantage of it and refused to hand over the pill fire, but these people just took a casual look and readily accepted the goods.
Seeing this, Pei Ling secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Things went smoothly than expected.
Immediately afterwards, he said: "Everyone, since you have already accepted the three-headed wolves and Huang Quanmu, where is the lightning strike?"
The head of the Mei family said: "This is what the old head of the family promised. Naturally, my family will not renege on it. It's just that the lightning-struck peach core fire has been kept in the ancestral hall for many years. If it is taken out rashly, it may damage its spirituality. It can only be refined on the spot."
