"This road is blocked, please retreat." After the old man who opened the way dealt with the ambushed men in black, a burly middle-aged man appeared with a group of men in black, his face showed a cold light, and he threatened directly.
"What if we don't want to leave!" Sun Xiang took a step forward and said without showing any signs of weakness.
"If you don't retreat, you will have no choice but to die." Seeing that Sun Xiang had no intention of retreating, the middle-aged man didn't say any more nonsense. He held a big sword in his hand and killed Sun Xiang directly.
The men in black gripped their long knives and followed the middle-aged man to kill him.
"Kill them." Sun Xiang was also a decisive leader. He waved the long sword in his hand and directly fought with the middle-aged man.
The two old men also rushed into the crowd and started fighting with the man in black.
Looking at the melee in front of him, Ye Wuyou stood on a branch and frowned slightly.
It would be crazy to start killing people after a disagreement, which also shows that the things inside Lianshan are extraordinary.
"Ye Wuyou, where have you been hiding before you come to help?" When Sun Xiang was fighting with the middle-aged man, he noticed that Ye Wuyou was not among the crowd. He frowned slightly and shouted loudly.
"No, they still have helpers." Hearing Sun Xiang's shouts, the middle-aged man's expression changed, and he quickly took out a flare from his body and shot it into the sky.
"Kill them all quickly." Could it be that the other side still had reinforcements? Sun Xiang's expression also turned bad, and he quickly shouted to his companions.
Ye Wuyou pulled out his long sword, leaving an afterimage on the spot and killed directly into the crowd.
ah!
It turned out that the men in black were having a hard time intercepting the two old men. Ye Wuyou suddenly came and broke the balance. There was a flash of cold light and screams, and each of the men in black fell to the ground helplessly.
Seeing Ye Wuyou killing everyone there, Sun Xiang's face lit up, and he quickly dragged the middle-aged man away, preparing to keep him here.
"withdraw."
The current situation was very unfavorable to them, and the middle-aged man was not a fool. Seeing his men fall one by one, if they stayed, it would only increase casualties, so he quickly gave the order.
"How's it going? Are you okay?" The middle-aged man retreated with the remaining men in black. Sun Xiang did not stop him and quickly asked the two old men.
"These little minions can't hurt us yet." An old man said with a smile. "Okay, don't waste time, let's hurry up!"
If I read it correctly, that middle-aged man should be a ninth-grade martial arts disciple. Such a person actually came to stop Sun Xiang and the others from going up the mountain. This explains the problem.
"Mr. Sun, what is there in Lianshan that is worth your efforts?" Ye Wuyou asked curiously.
Sun Xiang first glanced at the two old men beside him, then looked at Ye Wuyou, hesitated and said, "You will know sooner or later anyway, so I will tell you, there is a large lotus pond on the top of Lianshan Mountain.
A water spirit lotus has bloomed in the lotus pond. This water spirit lotus can help ninth-grade martial arts disciples break through and become martial masters. We are here just for the water spirit lotus."
"What? Water Spirit Lotus actually has such an effect." After hearing this, Ye Wuyou was also stunned. No wonder Sun Xiang and the others were in such a hurry. Now they finally understood.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense. Tonight is when the Water Spirit Lotus matures. We must get to the top of the mountain before dark." Sun Xiang urged and rushed towards the top of the mountain.
The two old men did not waste any time. They moved their bodies and followed Sun Xiang closely.
"Shui Linglian is such a good thing, I have to get it." Now that I have encountered such a treasure, I cannot miss it, otherwise I will be punished by God.
Ye Wuyou didn't hesitate, and followed suit as soon as his body moved.
There were many forces coveting Shui Linglian. Along the way, they encountered several more attacks, but they were much worse than the first time. The four of them joined forces and got through easily.
When the sun set, we finally arrived at the top of Lianshan Mountain. There was a large lotus pond here, and there was a light mist in the middle of the lotus pond.
There is a budding lotus in the mist. If you guessed correctly, that lotus is the water spirit lotus.
A lot of people have gathered around the pond, and they are all standing there quietly. It seems that they are all waiting for the water spirit lotus to mature.
"Damn it, why are so many people here? Who the bastard leaked the news?" After looking at the people around him, he felt that there was a lot of pressure to snatch the Water Spirit Lotus. The old man frowned and said angrily.
"It is said that three lotus root collectors discovered the Water Spirit Lotus. After they came down from the mountain, they sold the news to three families. The disciples of the three families accidentally leaked the news while drinking. As a result, the power spread thousands of miles around.
Everyone got the news one after another and sent people here one after another." Sun Xiang, as a minister of the city lord's palace, naturally knew more about the news, so he directly told what he knew.
"Fortunately, the news only spread for less than three days. Even if some forces got the news, they would not be able to come. Otherwise, the number of people here would have more than doubled."
"When the Water Spirit Lotus is in full bloom, a fight is inevitable. I hope you three will help me capture the Water Spirit Lotus."
"Don't worry, we will do our best to help you." These two old men have already taken advantage of Sun Xiang, and Sun Xiang also promised them that after getting the Water Spirit Lotus, he will give each of them a petal of the Water Spirit Lotus, and they will naturally go all out.
"You're welcome, Mr. Sun." Ye Wuyou said with a smile.
"Okay, let's find a place to rest first and wait for the water spirit lotus to bloom." After receiving the answers from the three people, Sun Xiang was relieved. When he saw the crowd around him, he still felt a burst of pressure. Now he could only try his best.
.
Everyone knew that when the Water Spirit Lotus bloomed, there would be a fierce battle, so they were all busy adjusting their breath to keep themselves in peak condition.
When night fell, everyone stood up one after another and looked at the water spirit lotus in the pond.
I saw a ray of moonlight falling from the sky and shining directly on the water spirit lotus. After the water spirit lotus absorbed the moonlight, it emitted a blue light, and its breasts began to slowly open.
"The water spirit lotus is about to bloom, everyone be prepared."
"Shui Linglian belongs to us. Anyone who dares to steal it will be killed without mercy."
"Brothers, success or failure depends on this one move. Let's fight for our future."
Seeing the water spirit lotus blooming little by little, everyone near the lotus pond became energetic, staring at the water spirit lotus, ready to take action at any time.
"We'll do it later, you two protect my wings." Sun Xiang glanced at the two old men, then turned to Ye Wuyou and said, "I'll leave the rear to you."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let them get close to Mr. Sun." Ye Wuyou nodded and said.
