The disciple was facing two people at the same time, and was already beyond his capabilities. He was preparing to get injured and planned to eliminate one of them first, but suddenly a figure fell next to him. The sword flicked and took over the incoming moves, and eliminated the two people opposite him in two or three blows.
The disciple said gratefully: "Thank you, uncle, for the rescue!"
"Get away." Tong Yan saw the man in black quickly surrounding him, pushed the young disciple back, and faced him without dodging.
He staggered to both sides, and when he stood still, he found a handsome young man in front of him, and then the other person threw a medicine bottle.
"Eat and go help." Xiao Lou glanced at him and missed him to help Tong Yan.
The disciple poured out the elixir and found that it was actually a top-grade Restoration Pill used to restore spiritual power. This young man was so generous!
However, since there is no shortage of resources, what is he doing in this remote country to experience life?
Chen Rongxing brought people from behind to support him, and Tong Yan, who had been fighting with the man in black for a long time, breathed a sigh of relief.
There were too many men in black, and they used their elusive skills in the dark, using their natural cover to cause the escorts a lot of trouble.
However, after Chen Rongxing and others joined in, the men in black saw that the situation was not good and retreated into the dense forest like a tide.
The shadows of the trees in the distance overlap each other, dark and gloomy, like beasts crawling, trying to choose people and devour them.
Don't chase after the enemy. Chen Rongxing did not order anyone to chase him, so he led everyone to stay where they were and rest for the time being.
During the break, the escort discussed the attack in twos and threes.
The temporary worker disciples from the sect didn't know what the raids were like in the past. They heard the long-term workers talking about it and asked some questions out of curiosity.
Someone asked when tonight's raid would end.
The long-term workers all responded, "It's hard to say. Sometimes it lasts all night, sometimes it disappears after two or three trips. The longest one lasted two days and two nights."
Ask them if they always raid at night.
"Basically, but not entirely. The light is dark at night, and their weird skills have an advantage. Most of them come at night."
As they talked, a long-term worker said: "This time they arrived earlier than usual, and the number of people was much smaller than the previous times."
"Indeed, it took them a long time to break through the formation in the past, but today's formation seems to have no effect on them, and they rushed in all at once."
"...It's a little strange."
At this moment, a huge explosion sounded in vain from behind, the ground shook violently, and everyone standing or sitting shook their bodies uncontrollably.
"What happened?"
"Something exploded!"
"Mine!" The disciple facing the direction of the mine was the first to spot the trouble.
Everyone heard the sound and looked around, only to see the flames soaring into the sky in the distance, the smell of burning rushed over, and the exploded earth and rocks rustled down.
Chen Rongxing's face changed drastically. The mine was bombed, and he was the person in charge who was directly implicated.
Leaving some people to guard the place, Chen Rongxing led a small team of people to quickly rush to the location of the mine.
Tong Yan and other part-time workers, as well as part of the escort team, stayed behind. Before Chen Rongxing left, he handed over the temporary command of the place to the person with the highest cultivation level present - Zhao Qing, a part-time worker in the middle stage of Jindan.
When the man heard Chen Rongxing's words, he glanced at Tong Yan for some reason and agreed without saying anything.
After Chen Rongxing led the people away, Zhao Qing came to Tong Yan and said, "I don't want this command right. Why don't you come, Uncle Tong?"
Tong Yan couldn't tell whether he really wanted to have command power when he said this, or whether he was just showing off.
She didn't answer for a moment, and Xiao Lou next to her sneered, "A temporary command power is of no use, and it's worth your special trip to show off in front of us."
Tong Yan's slow thinking does not mean that Xiao Lou is the same as her. Because his cultivation is higher than Tong Yan's, he feels that the most popular direct descendants are no more than this.
It's so stupid and ridiculous.
The merciless ridicule made Zhao Qing's face look a bit ugly. He really didn't think much of this direct descendant. He could come to the mine with them to compete for resources. He usually did things in silence, but he could command her.
, it can be seen that a person who is not taken seriously and has a cowardly and useless temperament has no qualifications to be a direct descendant.
It can be seen that Buddhist children's words are easy to bully in the eyes of others.
"Who are you? Why are you interrupting our conversation?" Zhao Qing, who had been humiliated, couldn't help but curse.
Xiao Lou raised his eyebrows and looked at him with disdain, as if he was looking down at others despite being of similar height.
"You look like you are hundreds of years old. You don't even know who I am and how you managed to get into the sect."
Zhao Qing’s qualifications are not that bad, but it took nearly three hundred years to reach the middle stage of Golden elixir. He is much worse than a genius disciple, so age is definitely a sore point that Zhao Qing doesn’t want to mention. “Who are you and why do I need to know?
!”
Xiao Lou raised his eyebrows slightly, his eyes extremely provocative, "Of course it is necessary, I am a much younger genius than when you formed the elixir."
Zhao Qing was almost 150 years old when he formed the elixir. As soon as Xiao Lou finished speaking, his expression suddenly turned gloomy.
It's just a foundation builder who dares to challenge himself like this!
Tong Yan saw that Zhao Qing seemed to be taking action, so he slowly showed up to smooth things over.
"Okay Xiao Lou, you still have a few years to form the elixir, so please be humble now."
Xiao Lou blinked at Tong Yan and said, "You can make elixirs in more than ten years, and I can do it myself, so there is no need to be modest."
Very good, you are very good at attracting hatred, and you still bring my kind.
After the two sang and made Zhao Qing angry and walked away, the surrounding melon-eating crowd quickly gathered around.
"Whose surname is Master, and which elder did you study under? Add your contact information so that I can help you in the future. Oh no, no, I mean let's discuss swordsmanship together."
"Are you serious that it took twenty years to form a pill? Real or fake, don't be a donkey like me!"
"Uncle Master, can you teach me the secret of cultivation? I will reward you with a lot of money!"
"I can do that too!"
"And I..."
"Come on, come on, follow me. I'll tell you everything you want to know." Tong Yan glared at Xiao Lou and told him to find a solution. Xiao Lou smiled and shouted, attracting everyone's attention.
.
Tong Yan took the opportunity to slip away. Just when he breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly noticed an approaching sound in the distance. He immediately felt a chill in his heart and warned him in time.
"There is an enemy attack, defend!" He said, summoning the Xuandu Umbrella, split it into ten pieces, and blocked them in front of everyone.
The short arrow stabbed over, and the huge impact force dented the inside of the umbrella, but it couldn't be broken no matter what.
The rain of arrows came suddenly, but the people present had already dealt with various surprise attacks. After noticing the danger, they quickly reacted and took up weapons to fight.
After the rain of arrows, the men in black came back with a vengeance. Countless figures were moving through the forest, and the number seemed to be much larger than last time.
Weapons intersected, magic talismans flashed everywhere, and the melee lasted for a long time. The number of escorts present was limited. When they realized that the enemy was attacking in large numbers, they sent a message to Chen Rongxing for support, but for some reason there was no reply, and no one came from behind.
Those who stayed behind were dead and wounded, and only a few were able to stand up and continue fighting.
After the protracted battle, Tong Yan's body was already bruised, and his chopping movements with the knife had become numb.
The man in black probably realized that she was a tough opponent, so he sent many people to encircle and suppress her.
When she was exhausted, her flaw was exposed and she was kicked. Fortunately, she reacted in time, used her strength to push back, and temporarily escaped from the encirclement.
The man in black was chasing after her. While Tong Yan was still thinking about how to respond, He Zhan suddenly rushed from the side and blocked her.
Seeing that He Zhan could handle it for the time being, she took the time to drink the healing elixir, and then joined the battle again.
He Zhaoyu didn't know where it came from. Before anyone arrived, the voice came over first.
"Uncle Master, I'm here to save you!" Tong Yan was not distracted when he was called. On the contrary, He Zhan next to him paused for a moment and was stabbed in the waist with a sword.
Tong Yan thought that he did not dodge the sword that was not difficult to dodge because he had little actual combat experience. He immediately took an opponent in his hands to relieve his pressure.
He Zhaoyu had already arrived over there, holding the magic formula in his hand to help. When the spell was raised, a group of men in black suddenly retreated for unknown reasons.
Just as doubts arose, various magical weapons supporting the team from behind also came into view.
It turned out that they retreated after seeing the reinforcements arriving.
