Chapter five hundred and twenty eight: three encounters
On the mountain trail, Xun Sheli lowered his head and looked at the mirror with a message in his hand. After being silent for a long time, he raised his hand to make a hole in the ground and buried the mirror in his hand into the soil.
Through the dust, you can vaguely see a few big words floating on the mirror: "No matter the cost."
After burying the resting mirror, Xun Sheli's eyes instantly became fierce, staring intently at the thorny mountain path below.
"According to the information we have received before, Shen Yuan and the Chu family will arrive here soon. At that time, even if we sacrifice all our lives, we must complete the plan."
Xun Sheli turned his head and looked around at the side branch members who had been trained by the Xun family since childhood and roared in a low voice.
"Brother Li, for our Xun family, we will not hesitate even if we all die here."
"That's right."
More than a dozen men and women wearing pure gray coats with no marks on their bodies looked wildly in their eyes. As children of the branch who received family education since childhood, they understood that the strength of the Xun family was the only thing they could rely on.
And now in this era where no one can be sure, family is their sustenance for inheritance.
"Everyone is on standby and waiting for the opportunity."
Xun Sheli raised his hand to signal, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the winding mountain road below.
Ten minutes or twenty minutes later, noisy sounds rang out in the bushes not far away. Everyone held their breath and saw a team of dozens of people walking quickly from the trail.
Just by scanning his eyes, Xun Sheli saw Shen Yuan walking in front of the crowd, his face gradually becoming determined.
"Is there any news about the second team?"
"The last message received from the second team was five minutes ago. They must have started taking action."
Before the team members behind him finished speaking, a huge and undisguised wave of spiritual energy erupted not far away, and a strong firelight illuminated the jungle in the film.
"Do it!"
Seeing the fire in the distance, Xun Sheli raised his eyebrows and shouted loudly. Countless talisman traps that had been buried covered the sky like locusts over the entire Xihaitang team.
The violent spiritual power just rippled and shattered the surrounding trees.
"There is an ambush, be on guard."
At the moment when the trap was activated, Liu Wu, who was walking behind the team, roared suddenly and quickly commanded his men to set up a layer of barrier to resist the first round of bombardment of the talisman.
With the buffer of the barrier, the Xihaitang members who had not had time to react quickly came to their senses and saw a ray of spiritual power surging through the crowd.
In an instant, more than ten demon souls jumped out from the sealing array, waving their sharp claws, condensing demonic aura, and the ghostly aura faced the talisman falling like a heavy rain.
"I knew something bad would happen along the way."
Yang Duqing cursed secretly in his mouth, and the anger in his eyes flashed away. He took a few steps and rose up from the ground. A long jasper bamboo fishing rod appeared in his hand among the green light.
Hold the bottom of the fishing rod tightly with your palm and swing it vigorously like fishing. The water mist under the silver-like fishing line condenses into a mist-winged water fish more than ten meters long. It flaps its fins and hits the place where the talismans are densest, detonating to form a sky-filled sky. Water splashed on the ground.
In the water curtain, Yang Duqing suddenly pinched a broken piece of talisman paper that had been ignited in his hand.
At the top of the talisman paper, there is an emblem symbolizing the customization of Yuzhenxuan. Although it has been damaged, it can still be vaguely judged.
"Except for the Xun family themselves, only a few forces that have a cooperative relationship with the Xun family can obtain the Xun family's standard Yanhuo talisman."
Calmly blocking the incoming attack, Shen Yuan took the broken Yanhuo Talisman handed over by Yang Duqing, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly looked towards the dim jungle beside the mountain road.
He took a step forward and looked like a bird flying across the sky. His palms flew and countless raindrops floated behind him, turning into sharp water arrows that fell overwhelmingly, completely destroying the trees and leaves along the way, leaving nothing but the ground. Potholes.
"How could it not be here?"
Looking at the messy forest land without any trace, Shen Yuan could not help but frown. Although the aura at that moment was extremely weak, he could still sense more than ten auras blended together.
But now I haven't found anything.
Without time to think too much, Shen Yuan quickly raised his head and stared at the mountain road facing him in the distance. Compared with the fleeting breath just now, the movement there was obviously not concealed at all.
The trees continued to tremble, and a figure covered in blood suddenly jumped out of the woods. The figure was wearing the uniform of an elite member of Xihaitang. The moment he saw Shen Yuan, his frightened eyes burst out with strong hope.
His lips were opened with difficulty, his scarred arms stretched feebly towards Shen Yuan, and he shouted with his last strength: "Captain, save me."
As soon as the words left his mouth, a vine arrow shot through the air like a javelin, piercing him from the back and nailing him to the ground.
"Three sons!"
The moment the figure fell, the crowd behind Xihaitang roared with grief. More than a dozen members roared and rushed towards the body that was nailed to the ground in the distance, regardless of the dense traps around them.
Before Shen Yuan had time to react, several green light shadows pierced the sky with howling winds, easily tearing apart their chests, and then penetrated straight down, killing the members of Xihaitang who were at the front who had no time to dodge.
"Ivy Arrow, Luan Teng Tree Demon, Chu Keran!"
A bald man wearing simple cloth next to Su Wu stared at the ivy arrow that was already close at hand. He couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth and gritted his teeth every word.
On the mountain path less than a hundred meters away, dozens of members of the Chu family wearing black gowns and gold ribbons around their waists slowly walked out.
In front of the team, a three-meter-tall tree demon with rattans swaying like hair stood behind a handsome young man. More than a dozen rattans were tightly wound to form a natural bow nearly five meters long. ..
Before the Chu family could say anything, the Xihaitang members who were already in the midst of a sneak attack, chaos and shootings subconsciously summoned their respective demon spirits to kill the Chu family who happened to appear.
"Stop it all!" After coming back to his senses, Shen Yuan roared with an ugly expression.
The figure that suddenly appeared and the several people who rushed out from behind the team were wearing the uniforms of Xihaitang, but the unfamiliar faces were obviously not members of the elite group he brought out this time.
Chu Keran, who heard Shen Yuan's roar not far away, also showed a bit of sneer on his face. If he was still doubtful before hearing Shen Yuan's roar, then he was 70% sure that it was not Xihaitang who suddenly attacked them just now. people.
In the chaotic atmosphere, the elite members of Xihaitang who heard Shen Yuan's roar showed great qualities. Even though they were filled with anger and confusion, they still stopped and waited for Shen Yuan's order.
Just when the battlefield atmosphere gradually eased and hesitated, a loud cry echoed in the sky, and then more than ten phoenixes turned into flames fell from the clouds and bombarded the Chu family's team.
