Chapter 259 - 259 A Sneak Attack
259 A Sneak Attack
At the foot of Niu Mountain, Ji Yuan gnawed on a thigh and looked at the towering Niu Shan.
He said leisurely, “I thought Qin Huai would give up on the resources outside Lingjiang City. I didn’t expect him to overestimate himself and want to fight us in Niu Mountain?”
Zou Shuang said coldly, “I don’t know who leaked the news. Erli River and Dog Tree Mountain are actually empty. They evacuated people overnight.”
“It doesn’t matter. Anyway, we’ve achieved our goal, right?” Ji Yuan disagreed.
He looked around. The Sacred Heart sect master’s clothes were messy, and he did not have the uniform of the three major factions. He looked more like a casual soldier who had set up a temporary team.
Even the armor on their bodies was ordinary. Some were wearing elbow guards, some were wearing breastplates, and some were only wearing skirt armor… Usually, the equipment of several people could only be put together to form a set.
But it didn’t matter. These were all small problems for them. When the Sacred Heart sect fought, it was all about numbers and realms.
With these two items, the Nine Dragons sect would be crushed. Moreover, the greatest advantage of his Sacred Heart sect disciples was…
They were all outlaws!
As long as he was not afraid of death, it was enough to make up for all his shortcomings.
All over the mountain, the mighty Sacred Heart believers shouted fanatically as they rushed up the mountain. Zou Shuang and Ji Yuan were in the middle of the army, watching the battle on the mountain peak.
“In terms of high-end combat strength and numbers, we are far superior… Moreover, there’s no movement from the Twin Extreme sect either. They’re probably planning to watch from the sidelines.”
“That’s great. They’re just like the county governor’s mansion.”
Rumble…
Suddenly, the two of them frowned. In their field of vision, the people who had already reached the entrance of Niu Mountain had yet to see anyone before they began to fall to the ground in groups.
Only a few blood refinement realm and bone pattern realm experts charged in and fought back and forth with the Nine Dragons sect’s experts.
“What’s going on?!” Ji Yuan suddenly sat up straight. “Is it force?”
“It’s not force…”
Zou Shuang remained calm. “We have bone pattern realm warriors on our side who can release force to block it, and the speed at which he fell was too fast.”
After a while, a disciple ran down from the mountain. “My lord! It was poison! These people from the Nine Dragons sect are trying to poison us! Now, the mountains and plains are filled with poison!” The man’s eyes darkened as he roared hoarsely.
“Poison? When did the Nine Dragons sect start playing with poison?” Ji Yuan was confused. “Aren’t the disciples of the True Path sect all self-righteous and sanctimonious… Do you disdain playing such tricks?”
“Don’t even think about it. It must have been arranged by that brat Qin Huai!” Zou Shuang coldly snorted. “When this kid massacred our villages in the past, most of them were cleared by poisonous creatures.”
“Qin Huai, that grandson!” Ji Yuan’s expression was gloomy. “What has happened to the sub-sect of the True Path sect… Don’t let me catch him, or I’ll cook him into a hundred different ways to eat him! Retreat! Hurry up and withdraw the people first!”
Zou Shuang immediately ordered, “Wait until the poisonous fog dissipates before fighting!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of martial artists in green and white robes rushed out from the left wing of Niu Mountain and charged straight into the center of the army.
The well-trained warriors of the Nine Dragons sect instantly tore a hole in the group of wandering warriors. However, the fearless Sacred Heart sect members immediately charged back and blocked the opening.
In an instant, countless broken limbs rolled down the mountain. The blood was like a huge red cloth, covering the mountain from the top to the bottom.
However, most of them were the blood of the disciples of the Sacred Heart sect. Because they were poisoned, even if they were not afraid of death, they would not be able to resist. The only ones who could fight in separate courts were the bone pattern realm experts.
“A bunch of trash… It’s our turn!” Ji Yuan moved the fat on his body and revealed a murderous excitement at the corner of his mouth. “I want the one at the fourth-level bone pattern realm!”
Ji Yuan’s legs sank, and his entire body was like a cannonball, ready to be fired. The next moment, his entire body was wrapped in a strong wind as he rushed to the hillside.
Zou Shuang, who was behind him, shook his head lightly. His figure flew elegantly to the peak of the mountain.
…
Right rear of the Sacred Heart sect army, at the top of Niu Mountain.
Qin Huai stood on the cliff, looking down at the impressive battle results. Then, he turned his head and looked down at the two figures he had seen last night in the middle of the army.
“It’s almost time.”
As soon as Qin Huai finished speaking, he saw Zou Shuang and Ji Yuan rushing toward the peak of the mountain.
“It’s my turn.” Qin Huai observed their speed and estimated the time.
The next moment, he leaped from a hundred-meter-tall mountain.
Whoosh!
The strong wind blew past his ears like thunder and drums, whistling into his long robe.
Tens of meters later, his feet slammed heavily into the slanted rock wall. His feet plowed the ground as he landed. It was as if two white snakes were following behind him, hissing and hissing.
“Enemy attack!”
Behind the Sacred Heart sect’s army, two first-level bone pattern realm experts stood up abruptly and looked at Qin Huai with excitement in their eyes.
“Our leader is indeed a divine prophet. He predicted that you, brat, would launch a sneak attack!” they said in unison.
The two men were twins, not only looking alike but speaking at the same time.
“Big brother!”
“Little brother!”
“This man is a genius of the Nine Dragons sect. Few people in the ninth refinement realm can defeat him,” they continued.
The two brothers licked the corners of their mouths, their eyes filled with excitement.
“I bet he’s delicious!”
