Chapter 021 Fighting in the open and secretly
Two and a half months ago, it was a dark and windy night on Jiangzhu Island.
The Second Young Master Guo finally couldn't hold himself back and led the crowd to revolt, intending to succeed with one attack. Little did he know that his brother Murong Yuhuai had already gotten the news from Mu Xiu and made countermeasures.
The two sides fought fiercely all night, and the insurrectionists suffered heavy casualties. The second young master Guo was also seriously injured. Elder Li led a group of disciples to resist with all their might, and only then did Mrs. Guo have time to lead the rest of the group to seize two boats and escape from the island.
Mu Xiu got the order early and was not exposed during the battle. He boarded the ship and left with everyone.
The two boats entered the river from the sea, from Binzhou to Huzhou, and then followed the dense river network in Huzhou until they reached the southern end of the Calabash Valley. Everyone got off the boat at night, walked on foot, and secretly entered the Calabash Valley.
Although Elder Ma did not expect that his eldest disciple who had been with him for more than twenty years was a spy, he had already expected that nine out of ten people around him were hiding secrets. Therefore, strict internal monitoring was implemented from the day he boarded the ship.
Mu Xiu acted cautiously, but he was also a little too careful. He was also frightened by Elder Ma's power that he had accumulated for many years, so he did not dare to deliver the news to Jiangzhu Island.
However, Elder Ma dared to take risks and give orders to Yan Ruojuan, and Yan Ruojuan also successfully stole the missing magic code.
Therefore, up to this point, in this secret competition, Elder Ma is still slightly superior.
At this moment, the combat strength of the insurgents has recovered to 70%, and the Second Young Master Guo has to rely on "Hua Meng to lure souls" to change his body and be reborn. Mu Xiu has reached the time when he has to take action.
Moreover, the three elders Qi, Huang and Ma have already retreated, and he is responsible for the defense of Hulugu Cave. It is a great opportunity.
After Mu Xiu finished writing the note, he stacked it with the map of Hulu Valley that he had prepared, rolled it into thin strips, and put it in his arms. He walked quickly and returned to the platform.
The purple-clothed disciples on duty were slightly surprised to see that Mu Xiu had been here in the morning and came again at this time. He rushed to greet him and bowed and saluted: "See you, Senior Brother Mu."
Mu Xiu didn't return the gift and said, "Bring me a firefly."
The man in purple was stunned and said, "Is there an enemy coming to kill you?"
"Why are you asking so much? Get it quickly!" Mu Xiu was furious, raised his hand suddenly, and slapped the man's ear.
"Yes...yes...yes..." The man in purple hurriedly fetched a firefly, and Mu Xiu reached out and took it.
"Wait a minute!" Suddenly a voice came from the entrance of the cave behind him. Mu Xiu was startled and thought to himself: "What the hell, why is he here?"
As soon as the word "Zhu" was finished, a tall, thin, middle-aged man walked out of the cave. He wore a brown gown, a mustache, withered hair, sunken cheeks, and slender eyebrows. He was exactly the size of Elder Qi's big
Disciple Wu Zhe.
After entering the valley, Elder Ma's side became increasingly powerful. Wu Zhe saw this and hated it in his heart.
He came to Elder Qi in the morning to report on the garrison situation in various places in the valley, and did not leave for a while. He just happened to see Mu Xiu walking in a hurry, and guessed that he had something important to do, so he thought of hindering him. It would be best to make him unable to do it and demolish it.
Mu Xiu's platform was to destroy Elder Ma's platform.
Wu Zhe walked forward with a smile and said in a strange tone: "We don't have any urgent matters here, why do we have to use Lingying to communicate?
Mu Xiu snorted: "What I want to convey is an important matter, and I have to use Lingying."
Wu Zhe said: "Who are you going to summon?"
"No comment!"
"Okay! Don't tell me? Before the retreat, the three elders specifically asked you and I to work together, but have you fallen on deaf ears? Or maybe you don't tell me because you have something wrong with you? Then I can't let this Lingying live.
You use it."
When Wu Zhe said this, he actually just wanted to verbally bully Mu Xiu so that he would not be able to accomplish anything. He did not expect that Mu Xiu would be detrimental to everyone in Hulu Valley.
Mu Xiu knew that as long as the news spread and attracted people from Jiangzhu Island, he would be suspected and would no longer be able to lurk. In this case, he would do whatever it took. In an instant, he had the intention to kill.
He smiled coldly and said, "Senior Brother Wu, you have delayed something important, so you can bear it."
Wu Zhepi smiled but said: "Since it is a big matter, it needs to be discussed. You refused to speak, and it was delayed. It is you who are responsible, and it has nothing to do with me."
Mu Xiu glared at Wu Zhe, turned away, and stopped after taking two steps. He turned around, his face solemn and his brows furrowed, as if he was thinking about a troublesome matter.
Wu Zhe saw this and thought to himself: "What's the big deal with this kid falling to the ground? Hum, it doesn't matter what big thing it is. In short, he didn't discuss it with me. If it goes wrong, I can't be blamed."
"Damn it!" Mu Xiu suddenly cursed and took out the note he had just written from his arms, "I will give you half of the credit. Take it and read it!"
Wu Zhe was doubtful, so he stepped forward to take the note and slowly unfolded it. As soon as the first few words came into his eyes, he shouted "Ah".
While looking at the note, he said in great surprise: "Where did you get this note? The spy is here..."
Having said this, Mu Xiu quietly walked around behind Wu Zhe, quickly drew his sword, and stabbed it hard into the back of his heart.
The change of this sword happened in a matter of seconds. Although Wu Zhe was at odds with Mu Xiu, he never thought that the other party would dare to harm him. In addition, his heart was all tied to that note at the moment, and he was defenseless. Suddenly
I felt pain in my back, and the tip of the sword had pierced my flesh.
After all, he was a disciple of Elder Qi. In the crisis, he reacted very quickly. He punched through both legs and threw himself forward. Therefore, Mu Xiu's sword only hurt his lungs, but failed to pierce his heart.
Wu Zhe fell to the ground and immediately drew his sword in his hand. He suddenly felt the disturbance of spiritual energy behind him and hurriedly jumped up.
The general turned his head and saw Mu Xiu approaching with a purple light palm. Under the blessing of Lan Xia's third-level cultivation, the purple powder energy gathered in front of the palm was extremely thick and oppressive, and there were five light tails behind it.
Whirl rapidly.
Wu Zhe hurriedly made two seals, used the red crystal shield, held the sword horizontally with his right hand, and held a ball of red light with his left hand towards the front of the sword.
However, he was seriously injured and lacked strength, so he moved his hand forward slowly. Before the red light touched the sword, the purple light palm of his opponent had already caught it.
With a "dang" sound, the palm of light hit the spine of the sword. Wu Zhe couldn't stand, flew backwards, and fell to the ground. The red light on his left hand disappeared into smoke, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Mu Xiu finished his palm and stabbed with his sword without stopping.
Wu Zhe Wuxia got up and rolled on the spot. The long sword passed by the skirt of his clothes and struck the stone surface with a "ding" sound, sparking sparks. Mu Xiu missed the target with his sword, so he raised the sword and stabbed again.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Xiu thrust out four swords, one sword narrowly missing the other. Wu Zhe rolled out more than five feet, and saw the enemy's fifth sword stabbing towards his left chest. It was difficult to dodge, and he was wearing a sword on his hand.
The sword is at the outer door and cannot be blocked.
At the moment of life and death, he suddenly reached out with his left hand and grabbed the sword. Even though his body was strengthened by spiritual energy and his muscles and bones were strong, two fingers were immediately cut off.
The long sword in Mu Xiu's hand suddenly stopped, and the tip of the sword was less than three inches away from Wu Zhe's chest. He roared, tightened his hand, and wanted to push the tip of the sword into the enemy's chest.
Wu Zhe released his sword with his right hand and immediately made two seals to use the "Smoke Transformation Technique".
His body suddenly turned into a thick cloud of smoke and passed by Mu Xiu. Wu Zhe was seriously injured and had no fighting spirit. He only wanted to escape. Without thinking carefully, he ran straight towards the hole behind the platform. The black smoke was very fast.
, and threw Mu Xiu away in the blink of an eye.
Mu Xiu was about to chase after him when he suddenly saw black smoke entering the entrance of the cave. A sinister smile appeared on his lips, and he said in his heart: "Wuzhe, Wuzhe, you are really in a panic. If you enter there, you will also end up in the coffin."
The length and width of the platform were only three feet each. Mu Xiu chased after him with all his strength, and within a few breaths, he entered the cave entrance. The corridor inside the cave was very long and narrow, and it was straight and straight without any bends.
The black smoke that Wu Zhe turned into could only fly forward and could not move left and right. Although he was invincible for a while, the moment when the smoke turned into flesh, it was his weakness.
While Mu Xiu was chasing after him, he took out two plum-blossom darts from the leather around his waist, held them in his hands, and silently calculated in his mind.
He and Wu Zhe are both at the third level of Lanxia Realm, and their control of many spells is on par with each other. The same is true for this smoke-changing technique. He naturally knows how long Wu Zhe's smoke-changing technique can last
.
Moreover, once the smoke dissolving technique is used, it cannot be dispersed in advance by mind control.
When Wu Zhe was about to enter the tunnel, he immediately regretted it, but the smoke-turning technique was his life-saving straw, so he had no choice but to fly as fast as he could.
When Mu Xiu ran for more than ten steps in the corridor, the time calculated in his heart had arrived. He suddenly raised his hand, and the two plum-blossom darts made a sharp "chichi" sound, piercing the air and chasing the black smoke.
The black smoke trembled slightly, slowed down suddenly, the smoke billowed up and down, and a human figure vaguely appeared.
The duration of the Smoke Transformation Technique has expired, and the black smoke has returned to its physical body.
