The Nine Demons Valley in Tianyun Mountain has always been a legendary dangerous place. Although the name does have a rhyme to it, the Nine Demons Valley is adjacent to Tianyun Mountain and is known as one of the most terrifying places in the Zhenxi Mountains.
There are monsters running rampant in the Nine Demon Valley. Compared with the monsters in some other places, the monsters in the Nine Demon Valley can be said to be several times more terrifying.
Tianyun Mountain is a natural maze formed by a huge maze, which can be said to complement the Nine Demon Valley. Tianyun Mountain is an artificial maze originally built by the Chu family.
But then the Chu family suddenly suffered a big change, and the terrifying existence that built Tianyun Mountain disappeared, and no one could suppress and operate Tianyun Mountain, causing the entire Tianyun Mountain to become a natural maze.
The Chu family had no choice but to seal off the entire Tianyun Mountain. Except for the occasional visit by the Chu family for training, the Tianyun Mountain was always closed.
Tianyun Mountain and Nine Demons Valley face each other from a distance, and have become the treasure house and dangerous place of the Chu family. It is natural that daily experience is enough, and it has become a blessed place for the entire Chu family.
However, the maze in Tianyun Mountain caused many people to be trapped and then directly exiled to other dimensions. The attack of the beast tide in the Nine Demon Valley caused the Chu family to suffer heavy losses.
However, it is also the last barrier of the Chu Mansion where the Chu family's headquarters is located. It is not far from Tianta City. You can go to Tianta City from some of the formations.
However, very few people use this thing. After all, it is just some magic stones that enter the city, so why cross it through the Nine Demon Valley and accidentally feed the magic beast directly.
But some people have to take this road for special reasons. This is the case with Chu Tiankuang now. The less well-known road is where he should go now.
If Chu Tiankuang really had the choice, he would not come here. Under normal circumstances, a maximum of ten demon generals would be enough to escort him, but now he is being escorted inside Tianyun Mountain.
Chu Tiankuang directly dispatched three teams, and Tianyun Mountain was naturally no problem. Although the Chu family did not completely control Tianyun Mountain, they were only detouring from some marginal areas.
So Tianyun Mountain is much simpler. It's just the terrifying monsters in the Nine Demon Valley that make Chu Tiankuang extremely cautious now. Even if he dispatches three teams of people, he can't guarantee everything.
The only thing we can do is to stop some beast herds around the Nine Demon Valley from approaching, and the beast herd is actually not a big cabbage. If you encounter it, you will be attacked by the beast herd. Under normal circumstances, it is a group of monsters besieging one or two demons.
.
It is equivalent to a battle in which the majority bullies the minority. The general beast herd or even the beast tide will not choose to attack the cargo transported by groups of demons like this. After all, it is useless for the demon beasts to obtain these cargoes.
Just like these herbs, they can be said to be everywhere in the Nine Demon Valley, and the quality is much better than the quality of these herbs. Why should the monsters be idle and bored to make plans for the Chu family.
So now these three hundred people and the other two junior demon lords are waiting here cautiously. In fact, what they are waiting for is not a natural disaster like a beast tide, but a man-made disaster from other people.
It doesn't matter who transports this batch of herbs. What's important is that returning the herbs to the auction house solves the crisis. Choosing this place is the best boneyard for both parties.
If Chu Ze leads people to kill Chu Tiankuang, it will be directly framed on the head of the beast tide. Chu Ze will also have a reputation as an effective rescuer. If Chu Ze is killed by Chu Tiankuang.
Then the conflict between the Chu family and the City Lord's Mansion will slowly disappear on the surface. In this way, the Chu family will be the biggest beneficiary. As for Chu Ze and Chu Tian, they are crazy enough to live and die.
It is actually no longer important to the Chu family. One of these two people will die today, and the one who survives can get the recognition of the Guard Hall and the final affirmation from the Chu family.
"Lin Zong, please cheer up your people today. If you set up an ambush, the best point has already been reached. You lost a team to defeat the opponent's ambush. This contribution will not be forgotten by Master Song."
Chu Tiankuang ordered a man beside him. The current situation has indeed changed somewhat. The man didn't say much on the surface, but in his heart he was already scolding Chu Tiankuang.
As a steward of the Guard Hall, he sacrificed his subordinates by using this method to lure the enemy. On the surface, he has indeed made a great contribution, but without those subordinates, a polished commander will definitely not have many opportunities.
But now that Chu Tiankuang has made arrangements, even Lin Zong cannot refute it. Now that the news of Chu Song's imprisonment cannot be spread, only Chu Tiankuang's order can be obeyed.
"Then please give Brother Chu a few nice words in front of Master Song. Lin Zong will never forget Brother Chu for his contribution this time. If there is an opportunity in the future, he will definitely repay you."
Now Lin Zong doesn't have a good word to say, and Chu Tiankuang is also a little helpless. The two sides are originally at the same level, and it is even said that Chu Tiankuang is a head lower than Lin Zong.
After all, Chu Tiankuang is just a deputy steward. Even though he has the right to be a steward, and even secretly exercises the rights of a second-level steward, Lin Zong
There is no way to take this road today, otherwise Lin Zong would not have come here. A fierce battle is inevitable, but Lin Zong has a murderous intention towards Chu Tiankuang in his heart.
It's just that Chu Ze stood on the top of a mountain and watched the people below walking by without launching an attack. This time Zi Wuji did give Chu Ze a face, facing three teams and directly assigned Chu Ze's four teams.
But even so, Chu Ze also felt some pressure. The opponent seemed to be missing some people, but in fact Chu Ze still suffered a bit. The opponent had 300 people but they had some heavy weapons.
There are two siege crossbows. Although the catapult is small, it is indeed very powerful. Especially the catapult customized for such a narrow terrain is a kind of killing weapon similar to the supreme being.
Now Chu Ze is well aware that as long as he kills Chu Tiankuang and these four hundred people, there will be no big problem even if they are buried with him. However, for Chu Ze, it is very likely that four hundred people will not be able to kill him even if they get in.
Chu Tiankuang.
The competition is not only between each other's strength, but also among the subordinates around them. People like Chu Ze are ambushes and secret assassins, so it is impossible to mobilize heavy weapons.
"Three of you, the difference in strength is indeed huge now, but as long as you hold off the first three breaths, I can find a way to destroy the siege crossbow."
Chu Ze's words were actually to encourage the other three stewards. The people assigned to Chu Ze were not afraid of rebelling before the war, but they were sure that Chu Ze would not accept it.
After all, Chu Ze was leading so many people from the beginning. If these people were really dead-set, then something was wrong, and Chu Ze knew it now.
Now Chu Ze has no idea of actually accepting these people as his subordinates, but there is really no one available for him. Zi Wuji gave these people to Chu Ze and used them directly.
"Of course we understand your lord's methods, but if the siege crossbow can be destroyed, it would be great, but the most important aspect is the catapult."
A steward looked at the catapult slowly arriving in the distance, and now he was a little nervous and afraid. This kind of catapult was a huge threat to the Demon Lord.
Now that Chu Tiankuang has a legitimate position, it is very simple to mobilize these heavy weapons. If he does not take the initiative to attack now, it will be a nightmare for Chu Ze and others if the other party takes the lead.
"Be prepared to attack after ten breaths. All we can do is to attack by force. As for the catapult, it is only useful for the first wave, so it is not something to worry about. You must understand that we can destroy the herbs, but Chu Tiankuang dare not."
Chu Ze's words made others seem to have found a new target. This batch of herbs was urgently raised by the Chu family and was basically something that could not be seen.
Being discovered by the city lord's palace would be a real crime. On the one hand, getting this task is a huge credit, but on the other hand, it is a hot potato. Everyone will be happy when the medicinal herbs arrive.
But if the medicinal herbs are destroyed, it will be Chu Tiankuang's fault alone. Even if Chu Tiankuang is not killed now, destroying these medicinal herbs is actually a good idea.
Just Chu Ze's intelligence made these people extremely admired. After looking at each other, these people immediately started to make arrangements. If these people were to assassinate Chu Tiankuang, they might be insufficient.
But it was not difficult to destroy these emergency herbs, but Chu Ze first targeted the catapults and siege crossbows. When he comforted these people just now, he naturally wanted to say nice words.
"And as long as our people get close to the herbs, their siege crossbows and catapults will be unable to attack. Their guards are also rat-throwing weapons, and their attacks and defenses will definitely be at a loss."
Under normal circumstances, Chu Tiankuang would definitely not aim his siege crossbows and catapults at his own people, but after the medicinal herbs were attacked, Chu Tiankuang discovered Chu Ze's true calculation.
The so-called subordinates and his own people are definitely not as important as Chu Tiankuang's position and life. Chu Ze's words also tempted several other managers to intervene in this matter.
If Chu Ze alone ordered the bombardment, the matter would definitely fall on Chu Ze alone in the end. If all these people had a hand in it, it would be safer in the end.
And Chu Ze naturally understands that there are other ways to do this, but if these herbs are destroyed, the Chu family will only be able to use the herbs from the City Lord's Mansion.
Chu Ze can also use the name of the Chu family to interview the city lord's mansion. Otherwise, if these herbs alleviate the Chu family's urgent needs, Chu Ze's situation will be a little embarrassing.
"We must arrange this matter properly. The manager can rest assured that we will get more if we pay something."
The words spoken by several people in unison made Chu Ze nod his head. He was satisfied but also had a hint of worry in his heart. Zi Wuji's method of controlling his subordinates was too terrifying.
These people are no longer the guards of the Chu family, but have become Zi Wuji's private army, and the so-called elite of the Chu family are already named Zi. What exactly this Zi Wuji is going to do has become the most doubtful thing in Chu Ze's mind.
"Do it!" Chu Ze saw that Chu Tiankuang had entered the attack range, and directly gave the order to attack. Chu Ze's figure flashed and was already close to the siege crossbow.
Naturally, the other three stewards will not take action directly. Now these three people are also mobilizing for Chu Ze, and four teams of people have been mobilized from high places. Chu Tiankuang's people are also well prepared when the demonic energy is surging.
First, they used some demonic energy to defend the medicinal herbs. These people did not forget their true responsibilities. They did not want to attack the ambushes, but chose to defend.
As for the attack, it was left to those responsible for the attack at the rear. Chu Tiankuang's eyes also had a hint of chill, but he looked at Chu Ze who was about to approach the siege crossbow.
Chu Tiankuang didn't move much but had a smile on his lips, as if he had already made arrangements in the siege crossbow. The moment Chu Ze approached the siege crossbow, magic flames suddenly exploded all around him.
Endless magic salt was placed near the siege crossbow at the same time. A crisis suddenly appeared in Chu Ze's heart. This Chu Tian Kuang's move was indeed extraordinary. He actually paid the price of two siege crossbows to kill Chu Ze.
Moreover, the demons controlling the siege crossbows and the surrounding demons defending at least one team were lost in this explosion. These demons are more difficult to cultivate than ordinary demons...
But when the magic saltpeter slowly dissipated, the cold air of an iceberg seemed more terrifying than the so-called magic saltpeter. Chu Tiankuang, who was originally relieved, suddenly changed his expression...
