Journey to the head

Chapter 53 The News Comes
As the night grew darker, above Yuqing Mountain, the two aerial ships had stopped attacking, and the original dozens of escaping lights around them had been reduced by half, leaving only a dozen or so surrounding Yuqing Mountain, maintaining the encirclement situation.

Among the two floating ships, one has a luminous pearl hanging high, lit with a rootless fire, brightly lit, and particularly eye-catching. It is the flagship of the Shioseo Gate.

The so-called floating ship is just in the shape of a boat, and its specific structure is different from that of ordinary ships.I saw a small two-story building on the deck of the ship. The building was full of seats, and two monks were arguing loudly.

"You can't withdraw, you absolutely can't withdraw!" A long-bearded monk said, "So what if the Zhou family finds two foundation-building Taoist priests to help us? Our Qi training combat power is much stronger than that of the Zhou family. Now we have become How can we give up so easily when we are encircling you?"

Another monk's face was unusually pale: "The Zhou family's mountain-protecting formation is too tough. If our two Taoist priests, Master Zhang and Elder Qian, don't take action, we alone can't break the formation."

The long-bearded monk talked eloquently: "The new Taoist priests of the Zhou family have just joined and have not returned home yet. They will definitely not use their full strength. As long as our entire army is dispatched and attack with all our strength, the two Taoist priests may not be tied to the Zhou family."

The white-faced monk sneered: "The whole army attacks? Okay, then who will attack first? Master Xu, you? If you are willing to lead your Qingli Mountain disciples to charge forward, I am willing to lead the Liuhua Valley army to follow."

Master Xu blushed and was about to speak when the leader suddenly clapped his hands softly: "Okay, don't argue anymore."

A flash of spiritual pressure made the qi-training monks shiver and shut up. Only the monk sitting first on his left remained calm and composed.

These two foundation-building Taoist priests were Zhang Shouchang, the head of Chaosheng Sect, and Qian Ruyi, the elder of Keqing.

Zhang Shouchang said in a deep voice: "Master Xu is right, we cannot withdraw our troops. This time, our Chaosheng Sect has dispatched all the elites from Qingli Mountain and Liuhua Valley, with a total of 150 monks. In terms of combat strength, we can steadily surpass the Zhou Dynasty." At the other end of the family. I also sent envoys to instigate three vassals of the Zhou family to rebel. The army is nearby, and they will all be in danger. If we can persuade them to come and defect, our advantage will be even greater."

Qian Ruyi stroked his palms and smiled: "At this moment, the Zhou family's Taoist priest is at his weakest. If you don't fight with all your strength at this time, you will hastily retreat. When the Zhou family regains its breath, the foundation-building combat power will flash around, and the three vassals will appear again. They will fall back on the Zhou family again. Next time we attack, it won’t be that simple.”

Seeing that the two foundation builders agreed with his point of view, Master Xu was very happy and glared at the white-faced monk.The white-faced monk panicked and said quickly: "Since the sect master has given the order, I, Liuhua Valley, am willing to do my best. Let us and Qingli Mountain take the lead tomorrow."

However, he had the idea of ​​dragging Qinglishan into the water no matter what, which made Master Xu curse in his heart.

Zhang Shouchang nodded with satisfaction, and then raised his hand to Qian Ruyi: "Elder Qian, tomorrow we will do our best to test the quality of the Zhou family's Taoist priest."

Take people's money and eliminate disasters with them.Qian Ruyi naturally obeyed the order and said with a smile: "Perhaps it is as the leader Xu of Qingli Mountain said, when we attack with the whole army, the Taoist priests of the Zhou family will no longer sacrifice their lives when they see that there is no hope of victory."

Seeing that his point of view was recognized again, Master Xu was even more excited. He was about to speak triumphantly when suddenly there was a burst of shouting from outside the building.

"It's not good! It's not good! I want to see the leader! Let me see the leader of my family!"

"Bold! Who are you? How dare you make a noise here? Get out of here!"

"Master Master—Master Master—"

A familiar female voice startled Master Xu, and then he heard her shout: "Let me go, something happened in Qingli Mountain!"

Head Xu stood up suddenly, Zhang Shouchang frowned and ordered: "Let her in."

The door to the building opened, and a woman with disheveled hair staggered in.Master Xu recognized his young disciple at a glance and said hurriedly: "Qing'er, tell me quickly, what happened to Qingli Mountain?"

As soon as the female cultivator saw Master Xu, she burst into tears and said intermittently: "Master, Master, something happened! A group of monks broke into our mountain gate and killed all the brothers! Even Brother Zhao and Brother Zhao died. Got it!"

The senior brother Zhao she was talking about was naturally her lover.

But Master Xu didn't care about their trivial matters. As soon as he heard the first half of the sentence, he was struck by lightning and roared loudly: "What did you say? Say it again?"

"Master! Dozens of monks have broken through our mountain-protecting formation. They kill everyone they see and rob everything they see. Our Qingli Mountain, Qingli Mountain has been destroyed!"

Headmaster Xu felt a sharp pain in his heart, his vision turned black, and he murmured: "It's impossible, it's impossible..."

The monks in the field whispered.The white-faced monk was gloating in his heart, but a hypocritical smile appeared on his face. Just as he was about to offer words of comfort, the female monk's next words made him almost choke to death on his saliva.

"They also said that Liuhua Valley will be next!"

The white-faced monk jumped up: "What?!"

"Enough!" Zhang Shouchang shouted, and the Taoist priest's pressure flashed, and the female cultivator couldn't help but tremble, "He is a disciple of Master Xu, right? Where do those monks come from?"

"I...I don't know, I was at the bottom of the mountain. When I looked up, I saw them rushing straight to the mountain gate, and then I was caught by them. They quickly broke through the mountain gate, and then rushed in, burning, killing, and looting …”

Zhang Shouchang asked patiently: "Think about it carefully, did they say anything in their words?"

Master Xu also stared at her anxiously. She thought hard for a while and suddenly shouted: "There seem to be several masters among them. What other three factions are there!"

Three factions?Three factions!
Among the three factions within hundreds of miles around, who would attack Qingli Mountain and Liuhua Valley, besides the three factions that are vassals of the Zhou family, who else could they be?

For a moment, everyone was stunned. Zhang Shouchang said angrily: "Assholes! I thought they could be used by me and treated me politely, but I didn't expect they were bitten back! How can they find the courage in Tai Sui, a small Qigong sect? It’s really unreasonable to stir up trouble on one’s head!”

Leader Xu could no longer hold back, fell to the ground, and begged loudly: "Sect Master! Sect Master! I have to withdraw my troops immediately, turn back to the mountain gate, and beg Sect Master to let me go back to the mountain!"

The white-faced monk also hurriedly bowed down: "Sect Master! The thieves have gone to my Liuhua Valley. Please let me go back to defend!"

Zhang Shouchang's face was livid, and Qian Ruyi said coldly: "The thieves deliberately sent a disciple back to report the news, and deliberately revealed their purpose in order to shake our military morale and make us return to defense and relieve the siege of Yuqing Mountain. We cannot be fooled."

These cold words made Master Xu and the white-faced monk feel as if they had fallen into an ice cave. They lay on the ground, trembling all over, and begged louder.

At this time, the female cultivator cautiously added: "They also said that after conquering Liuhua Valley, they will attack the Chaosheng Gate."
