Chapter 692: Enemies Meet

Ever since the city was blocked that day and no one was found, the Third Prince Xing Yin lifted the city blockade.

Si Song and Nalan Yiren followed the scorpion all the way out of the city and headed outside.

Si Song and Nalan Yiren were both upper-grade warriors at the supernatural power realm, and with the strength of the Poison Scorpion, they would naturally not notice that they were being followed.

But out of caution, the Poison Scorpion would still look back from time to time. There were few pedestrians on the official road outside the city, so Si Song and the others did not follow too closely, otherwise the other party would notice something strange as soon as it turned back.

Nalan Yiren released his poisonous insects to track the scorpion, and when the scorpion went a little further away, he used the information left by the poisonous insects along the way to quickly close the distance.

The two followed the poisonous scorpion all the way to a valley.

The vegetation in this valley is sparse, and the trees do not grow densely. You can still see piles of bones around it.

Nalan Yiren watched as the poisonous scorpion pressed a button somewhere, and then the sound of a mechanism was heard. A hole about a meter and a half in size appeared in front of them. The poisonous scorpion walked into the hole, and its figure disappeared from their sight.

Nalan Yiren wanted to go over and take a look immediately, but Si Song stopped her and asked her to stay here while he went over to take a look first.

Seeing this, Nalan Yiren had no choice but to observe the surrounding environment.

After Si Song confirmed that there were no traps, he waved to Nalan Yiren to come over.

Nalan Yiren used her lightness skills and her figure flew to Si Song's side like willow catkins, without leaving a footprint on the ground.

"This is the mechanism he pressed just now." Si Song said, pointing to a strange-shaped stone protruding from the ground nearby.

But the Nalanyi people's attention was focused on some surrounding plants.

"Soul-breaking flower, Vein-breaking grass, Six-leaf purple vine" Nalan Yiren read out the names of these plants one by one, and then said excitedly: "These herbs are unique to our Poison King Valley. Now that they appear here, it means that this must be the beast's lair. The underground palace that person mentioned should be right under our feet."

When Tang Yichen defected from the valley, he also took away some medicinal herb seeds.

After saying that, Nalan Yiren was about to press the mechanism of the underground palace, but was stopped by Si Song.

"Yiren, don't be anxious. We don't know what the situation is down there. If we rush in, the situation will be disadvantageous to us. We should be cautious. Besides, we are not sure whether the beast is in there." Si Song said.

Nalan Yiren paused. What Si Song said made sense. They were still not sure whether the beast was down there. Although the conversation between the Scorpion and Kui Ci showed that the high priest was waiting for the Scorpion in the underground palace, what if the high priest was not actually the beast?

If we rush in rashly and the other party is not there, we will alert the enemy and it will be harder than climbing to the sky to find the beast again.

Nalan Yiren and Si Song looked at each other, then retreated and hid, intending to wait and see.

at the same time.

In the underground palace below.

The poisonous scorpion had been down for a while, but Tang Yichen had not noticed any movement coming from above.

"Is he not catching up, or is he hesitating about something?" Tang Yichen thought to himself.

Poison Scorpion was also very confused. He had been down for a while, but the high priest still didn't ask him anything. This made him feel a little uneasy.

After waiting for a while, the scorpion finally couldn't stand it anymore and asked, "What does the high priest want me to do?"

But Tang Yichen ignored him and muttered to himself: "It seems that I need to show up in person as bait."

"High Priest?" Scorpion looked confused.

Then he saw the high priest stand up and walk towards the entrance of the underground palace.

Although Scorpion didn't know what was going on, he still followed.

As the mechanism sounded, the entrance opened and sunlight shone down from the sky. Tang Yichen, dressed in a black robe, walked on the steps. As he walked, he slowly lowered the brim of his hat. His long white hair was draped over his shoulders.

The poisonous scorpion following behind him couldn't help but tremble in his throat, because he saw a small snake crawling in the long white hair.

Walking out of the underground palace, the glare of the sunlight made Tang Yichen subconsciously raise his hands to block it.

And just at this moment, he heard the sound of breaking wind behind him.

"Yiren." Seeing that Nalan Yiren was so impatient to take action, Si Song no longer hid his figure and rushed out from his hiding place at a high speed. As fast as thunder, he and Nalan Yiren rushed towards Tang Yichen one after the other.

Both of them attacked extremely quickly. When the poisonous scorpion reacted and wanted to dodge, it was too late. He didn't even have the chance to shout for help. He exploded into a ball of blood mist on the spot. It was obvious that Nalan Yiren was so ferocious when she attacked.

"Bang, bang!"

Two dull voices sounded one after another.

In front, Tang Yichen and Si Song exchanged palm strikes, and both sides took a step back. It seemed that they were evenly matched, but the next second, Nalan Yiren's palm fell on Tang Yichen's back.

The innate spiritual energy that protected his body was instantly shattered. Tang Yichen staggered forward a few steps, and a mouthful of blood foam spurted out of his mouth.

Seeing that he was injured, Nalan Yiren and Tang Yichen did not hesitate at all. They rose into the air like willow catkins, wanting to take the other person's life.

Tang Yichen raised his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, tilted his head slightly and glanced silently at the masked woman in black who was approaching. His robe fluttered without wind, and a thick red smoke poured out from his body. As the red smoke emerged, the flowers and plants around him began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a moment they turned completely yellow and lifeless.

Seeing such a horrifying scene, neither Si Song nor Nalan Yiren tried to hide or even blink, and they went straight into the red smoke and rushed towards Tang Yichen.

Si Song's pupils shrank at first, as he had underestimated the toxicity of the red smoke. He moved his sleeves violently, creating a strong wind that blew away some of the red smoke, but Nalan Yiren was not affected.

"Bang bang."

After two brief and rapid fights, Si Song was surprised that this beast had indeed entered the realm of supernatural powers and was stronger than himself. The soft flesh on his five fingers was cracked during the palm strike, and a deadly poison penetrated the wounds and invaded his body. However, Si Song did not care, because his body could withstand the poison.

He looked at Tang Yichen. The other party's condition was much more serious than his. After being besieged by two people, he had been seriously injured and was coughing up blood.

"You beast, give me your life." Nalan Yiren took advantage of his illness and made him sick, not giving him a chance to breathe. Her five fingers turned into claws and grabbed towards Tang Yichen's throat. The nails of her five fingers instantly turned purple and black. Obviously, they were highly poisonous.

Tang Yichen coughed up blood and dodged, then pressed the mechanism of the underground palace and escaped into it.

The beast was already so badly injured, Nalan Yiren certainly couldn't let him escape, so she chased after him without thinking.

Although Si Song felt a little strange, the opportunity to avenge his old friend was right in front of him, so he didn't think much about it and followed in.

On the other side of the valley, on the top of a pine tree, a black bird was always looking at the entrance to the underground palace. After seeing Nalan Yiren and Si Song enter the underground palace, it immediately flew away.

Soon, it flew into a valley, where thousands of armored elite soldiers were hiding.

The butler of the Third Prince's Mansion saw the black bird flying over and immediately ordered: "Let's go!"

……

the other side.

Chen Mo followed Kui Ci to a brothel.

This guy directly ordered three girls and went into the private room.

And he suddenly became the one who listened to the bed.

At this moment, the originally quiet black bee in his sleeve suddenly became a little agitated, flew in front of Chen Mo, and flapped its wings.

Chen Mo originally thought that the moaning sound made it agitated, but after careful observation, he found that it was not the case. What he didn't know was that this black poisonous bee was called a poison-eating bee, and every time this bee reproduced, two male and female bees would be born, no more, no less.

The male and female bees of this kind have a telepathic connection with each other. No matter which one feels uneasy, the other will also feel it.

The one that Nalan Yiren gave to Chen Mo was a male venomous bee.

Unfortunately, Chen Mo couldn't understand animal language and had no idea what the black bee was trying to say.

When the venomous bee saw that Chen Mo was indifferent, it simply stopped flapping its wings and flew away right in front of Chen Mo.

Chen Mo was a little confused for a moment, but soon realized that something was wrong.

Could something have happened to Miss Nalan?

Although following Kui Ci was important, Chen Mo hesitated for a moment and then followed Hei Feng out of the brothel.

After leaving the brothel, Black Bee flew directly out of the city and headed outside the city.

Chen Mo followed closely.

This little guy is not big, but his speed is not slow at all.

Soon, Chen Mo followed the black bee and came to the outside of a valley, then he was stunned and stopped.

This valley was actually surrounded by the army.

And looking at these soldiers, each of them is wearing armor and holding a powerful crossbow. It is obvious that they are not a ragtag army, but rather the elite of the Yelang Kingdom.

Among them, Chen Mo also found an acquaintance.

When the officers and soldiers surrounded the Lin family's residence in Kyoto before, Chen Mo saw him kill Han Yang.

Although the valley was heavily guarded, the venomous bees seemed not to see anything and flew straight into the valley.

Although the venomous bee is larger than ordinary bees, it is not conspicuous in this wilderness.

Not to mention whether the soldiers could see it, even if they did, they would not care because it was just a black bee.

The venomous bee flew in easily.

The venomous bees were flying towards inside, which obviously meant that Nalan Yi and the others were inside.

And Nalan Yiren followed the Scorpion in order to find Tang Yichen.

But now this valley is heavily guarded. Could it be that Tang Yichen is colluding with the Yelang court?
Chen Mo frowned. As expected, Nalan Yiren and the others had fallen into an ambush.

"Damn it."

Chen Mo gritted his teeth, hesitated for a while, took out a piece of black cloth from his arms, covered his face with it, and then flew towards the valley at a high speed.

Soon, the masked Chen Mo was discovered by the army in the valley.

The valley was surrounded by the army. If Chen Mo wanted to go in, it would be impossible for him to not be discovered, unless he became invisible. Otherwise, he could only force his way in like he was doing now.

"who?"

"Stop him quickly!"

"what"

……

The time came to when Chen Mo was on his way out of the city.

Nalan Yiren and Si Song followed Tang Yichen into the underground palace in order to kill him.

At the entrance, it was dark.

When Nalan Yiren and his companions just entered, the poisonous snakes curled up on the steps and the poisonous creatures on the walls on both sides attacked the two of them almost instantly.

The venom spewed out by some poisonous creatures can actually corrode and penetrate the innate spiritual energy of top-grade warriors.

However, for the two people who specialized in poison skills, the attacks of these poisonous creatures were like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.

But there were too many poisons. In order not to waste time, Nalan Yiren turned her palm and a small porcelain bottle appeared in her hand. She opened the small porcelain bottle, bit her finger, dripped blood into the potion in the porcelain bottle, and then sprinkled the potion in the porcelain bottle around.

In the blink of an eye, these poisonous creatures retreated in fear like mice seeing a cat.

When they arrived at the underground palace, it was brightly lit. Although the space inside was large, it was just a main hall without any passages leading to other places. Tang Yichen, who had just escaped, was in the main hall with no way to escape.

Tang Yichen looked at the two people who had chased in, his eyes stayed on Si Song, and he said with a smile: "Great Elder, it's been a long time since we last met. You are still in good health."

Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.

Si Song was not so kind, and angrily said, "You beast, the Valley Master treated you well, but you killed your master and betrayed the Valley for your own selfish interests. I didn't kill you back then, so you lived for so many years. Today, I will kill you with my own hands to avenge the Valley Master."

"You beast, give me your life."

Nalan Yiren didn't say a word and went straight to kill Tang Yichen.

She had memorized the other person's face for more than ten years, and even in her dreams, she wanted to tear him into pieces.

Therefore, when Tang Yichen just came out of the underground palace, Nalan Yiren recognized this face, and the anger buried in her heart suddenly erupted, and she took action directly.

In her opinion, letting the beast live a little longer would be a kindness to it.

Talking nonsense will only give this beast a few more breaths of life.

"The scent of the Taotie Gu, this person should be my junior sister."

Unlike in the underground palace, Tang Yichen easily dodged Nalan Yiren's killing move. When she got close to him, he even made a very obscene "smelling" gesture. After saying this, he even exchanged a palm strike with Si Song who came to kill him.

The result was that Tang Yichen did not move at all, but Si Song staggered back several steps, his blood and energy unstable.

"Great Elder, you haven't made any progress in the past ten years." Tang Yichen said sarcastically.

"You're not hurt?"

Seeing this, Si Song was a little surprised.

"With your two weak attacks, you think you can hurt me? I'm just worried that you would escape, so I wanted to lure you in to put on a show." Tang Yichen started to mock him directly.

"To die."

Nalan Yiren's tone was cold, and then, she raised her hand, and an extremely strong innate spiritual energy burst out, carrying with it a thick poisonous mist.

"Oh!"

Tang Yichen dodged it, and a large handprint appeared on the wall behind him. The stone wall was directly dented, and the poisonous mist contained in it actually corroded some of the stone.
