Chapter 213 Cover
Liu Xing ignored Elder Zhou's startled expression and threw out the spy's corpse, saying, "Do you recognize this man, Elder Zhou? He's a spy. He's leaked all the details of this place's defenses to the enemy, and I just happened to catch him! So I'll kill him right there. Elder Zhou, remain calm and quickly adjust your defenses. The demonic cultivator army is about to arrive."
Hearing Liu Xing mention a spy, he was shocked. He looked at the body and saw that it was the former leader of the guards in the mining area. He was instantly furious, his face flushed red. He didn't suspect Liu Xing, but rather that there was a spy among his own men, which made him feel ashamed and embarrassed.
"Elder Zhou, you will lead your troops to resist the demon army's first attack. Once the formation is broken, you will prepare to evacuate. Our wolf pack will meet you from the periphery. After you evacuate, we will blow up this mining area. Elder Zhou, do you have any questions?" Liu Xing said quickly. His wolf pack was about to arrive, and he had to go out to make other arrangements. Elder Zhou had many questions, but at this moment, he couldn't ask any of them.
"Thank you for saving my life, fellow Daoist! We will act according to the wolf pack's plan." Elder Zhou sighed and saluted respectfully. If he hadn't had Liu Xing's support, and there was a spy in his group and he was targeted by the enemy, he would definitely have died here.
"Goodbye!" Liu Xing clasped his fists and turned to leave.
After Liu Xing left, he strolled around the mining area within 20 miles and found a suitable hiding place. He then decided to ambush his wolf pack there and wait until the battle started before rescuing people.
"Wolves, please pay attention. Follow Plan B and gather in the mountainous area 20 miles north of the mining area." Liu Xing took out his communication equipment and saw that the team members were less than a hundred miles away from here, so he transmitted the order through voice.
"Wolves received!" The team members quickly adjusted their direction and gathered towards Liu Xing. No one questioned it, they just obeyed.
Once everyone had gathered, Liu Xing pulled out his array disk and set up a concealing formation, completely masking everyone's presence. He then described the situation in the mining area. Everyone, upon hearing about the spy, rejoiced in their luck. Fortunately, Wolf Warrior had the foresight to sneak in alone, avoiding a public visit, which would have implicated the Wolf Pack as well. Liu Xing urged everyone to take the time to meditate and rest, recuperating their mana. A fierce battle was sure to follow within two days, if not five. Liu Xing also took the opportunity to report to headquarters on their location, deployment, and the spy's situation. Wu Chang praised the Wolf Warriors' performance and urged them to follow their plan.
For three days, as everyone waited anxiously, the demonic cultivators rolled in. Scouts along the way were quietly eliminated one by one by the demonic sects, leaving no news of the situation unnoticed. When the army reached forty miles from the mining area, they were discovered by Liu Xing, but he remained silent. He neither alerted the team members nor Elder Zhou. He let everything flow naturally; that was the only way to achieve a realistic effect.
The demonic cultivator army was led by a black-robed elder in the early stages of the Core Formation stage. As the intelligence had predicted, the scouts were quietly eliminated one by one, with no information leaking out. Very good! Next, we must seize all the guards in the mining area in one fell swoop, and make sure Old Man Zhou doesn't get away. He brought over thirty Foundation Establishment disciples this time, more than double the enemy's number. As for the nearly two hundred Qi Refining disciples, that was just icing on the cake, to clean up the battlefield.
"Men, let's charge!" When the black-robed Jindan was still twenty miles away from the mining area, he gave the order to charge. If he was any later, he would be discovered by Old Zhou.
Zhou Lao was meditating with his eyes closed when suddenly a demonic energy surged into the sky. It had finally arrived. He took out his flying sword and headed for the side gate of the mining area. He had transferred all his men from their original defensive positions to concentrate here, intending to catch the enemy off guard.
With a loud bang, the black-robed Jindan cultivator led the Foundation Establishment cultivators in a simultaneous attack, striking the weak point of the formation, shattering the protective barrier. According to the original plan, the black-robed elder rushed towards Elder Zhou's residence, while the Foundation Establishment cultivators dispersed and attacked in pairs, attacking the position of the Foundation Establishment guards as reported by the intelligence. However, their attack was doomed to fail, as Elder Zhou had already withdrawn all his troops and concentrated them here.
Seeing that the other party had separated, Old Zhou gave an order: "Kill!" Immediately, murderous aura filled the sky. With one powerful move, Old Zhou killed the two foundation-building demon cultivators closest to him, and the Jiuyang foundation-building cultivator also rushed into the group of demon cultivators practicing Qi and started a killing spree.
"Old Zhou, how dare you!" The black-robed Jindan cultivator reacted instantly and rushed over to block Old Zhou, preventing him from continuing to attack the low-level disciples.
"Hahaha, old ghost, come and fight! I'm not afraid of you." Knowing that reinforcements were coming, Old Zhou felt confident and shouted a challenge. The two Jindan cultivators flew into the air and engaged in a fierce battle. Old Zhou was slightly weaker, but since they were at the same realm, the Black Robe Jindan cultivator wouldn't be able to defeat Old Zhou in the short term.
The demonic cultivators' foundation-building skills were slow to react. By the time they realized they had fallen prey to the trap, dozens of the demonic cultivators' Qi-training disciples had died, leaving them furious. Because the foundation-building cultivators had dispersed, they had to gather to confront the Nine Yang Sect's foundation-building disciples, which took another two breaths of time. This delay resulted in nearly half of their Qi-training disciples being killed or injured. The disparity in realms made it impossible for them to compete, and the remaining ones were forced to flee. Meanwhile, the Nine Yang Sect's Qi-training disciples began to pursue the demonic cultivators' Qi-training skills. Since their numbers were similar, they were immediately evenly matched.
Just as the protective formation for the mine collapsed, Liu Xing led the wolf pack in a rapid charge. By the time they arrived, the Nine Yang Sect's foundation-building group was surrounded by the demonic cultivators. With half the number of cultivators, they were in dire straits.
"Oh no! There's an ambush!" The black-robed Jindan cultivator was shocked at first when he felt the wolves coming, but then he felt relieved when he saw that there were only ten foundation-building cultivators.
"Each person may only use two moves, destroy the enemy as quickly as possible, do not linger in the fight, and quickly support your fellow Foundation Establishment cultivators!" Liu Xing shouted as the wolf pack passed through the Qi Refining Stage battle zone. "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" The wolves targeted the twelfth-level Qi Refining Demon Cultivators, annihilating twenty peak-level Qi Refining cultivators with just two moves, instantly crushing the Qi Refining Demon Cultivator army. The Nine Yang Sect's Qi Refining disciples were overjoyed, their fighting spirit soaring, while the Demon Cultivating disciples were terrified and struggled to hold on.
Without hesitation, the wolves charged into the Foundation Establishment stage demon cultivators like a sharp sword, their long-prepared, top-grade magical weapons blasting their respective targets. Such a sharp attack caught the enemy off guard, killing one and injuring nine in a single blow. Without waiting for the enemy to catch their breath, a second attack followed, and the demon cultivators finally switched from offense to defense.
"Mr. Zhou, the enemy reinforcements are coming. If we don't retreat now, when will we retreat?" Liu Xing sent a message to Mr. Zhou.
"Retreat!" With a command from Old Zhou, the Qi-refining disciples were the first to leave the battlefield and ran quickly into the distance.
