The suspected traitor incident and the fierce resistance from various immortal sects in Daning finally gave Yang Mingdeng a sense of crisis.
He immediately ordered to recall all the expedition teams, shrink the front line, and slowly withdraw to the Cangning Mountains, where he began to build the sect's ten thousand year foundation on a large scale.
Yang Qian, who was in charge of the West Route Army, received the order. Although he was quite puzzled, he still ordered the troops to retreat.
His line of work gained a huge harvest, conquering more than a dozen sects, capturing a lot of golden elixirs, and a large amount of supplies, which greatly made up for the losses of the three island bases in Tiandu Mountain.
This made Yang Mingdeng overjoyed and rewarded him well!
As soon as Yang Qian came back, he heard the shocking news that three island bases had been robbed and the East Route Army had lost contact. He was almost stunned.
Unexpectedly, his front foot was drawing blood, but his rear was losing blood. How could he not feel heartbroken?
He hurried to Tiandu Hall to see Yang Mingdeng.
"Father, have you ever found out the truth behind the robbery of the base?!" Yang Qian asked urgently.
"This... this matter is indeed quite puzzling. In the opinion of the military advisor, it seems to be the work of a traitor!" Yang Mingdeng sighed.
Yang Qian read the relevant letter talisman, thought about it carefully, his face changed slightly, and he said solemnly: "Father, this is not the work of a traitor, but someone is eyeing our Tiandu Mountain!"
"Target us?! Are you sure?!" Yang Mingdeng was startled.
"My child is extremely sure! The three formations are all level six great spiritual formations. From the description in the letter, we can judge that they were all destroyed by external force attacks, and all the formation eyes were seriously damaged! With the strength of the people in the sect,
Even if my father took action, he would never be able to accomplish the robbery described in the letter."
"This..." Yang Mingdeng pondered and nodded slightly.
"Moreover, the methods used in the three scenes were almost identical. There was no sign of resistance at the scene. It can be seen that everyone and everything were easily taken away! On the one hand, the opponent was powerful, and on the other hand, his actions were extremely precise. In a short period of time,
Just by completing all the actions, it can be seen that the opponent has been coveting these three bases for a long time. They saw that we were going to establish the foundation of the clan in the Cangning Mountains, so they made a lightning move and succeeded in one fell swoop!"
"Oh my God!"
Yang Mingdeng screamed in surprise, his face changed drastically, his whole body was shaking slightly, and he felt bad.
"So, do you think someone powerful is eyeing our Tiandu Mountain?!"
"That's right! Moreover, the child already has a suspect!"
"who?!!!"
"Kongkong Pirates!" Yang Qian gritted his teeth and said.
A flash of lightning flashed in Yang Mingdeng's mind, as if he had returned to the tragic scene after Tiandu Mountain was robbed by Kong Kong pirates. His whole body felt as if he had been electrocuted, and he sat down slumped!
He was extremely convinced that this matter must be the work of Kong Kong Pirates.
Unexpectedly, the Kongkong Pirates were still there, following them from Daxia to Daning and not letting them go!
Everyone in Tiandu Mountain worked hard and accumulated, but finally fell into his hands. If this continues, what future does the sect have?
Suddenly, a letter talisman flew in, and Yang Mingdeng took it. After a brief reaction, he was stunned. He let go of his hand and the letter talisman fell to the ground.
Yang Qian quickly picked it up and took a look. His eyes widened immediately, with an incredible look on his face!
I saw the letter written on it: "Someone witnessed that everyone in Tiandu Mountain, Cang Ning Sect, and He Weiyang, the ancestor of Yuanying of Blazing Flame Sect, were all captured by three black light grids that descended from the sky. There were about 1,300 people in total.
!Ge Liang.”
"Three black light grids?! What is that?!!!"
Yang Qian couldn't restrain the fear in his heart and screamed.
Yang Mingdeng on the side had an extremely frightened look in his eyes, his whole body was shaking, "Puff, puff, puff", blood spurted out one after another, and he slowly sat down...
"Father! Father! Father!" Yang Qian shouted urgently.
Many figures came quickly from outside...
…
"Master, it seems that Yang Mingdeng was very frightened this time. The battle lines have all shrunk, and the oil and water harvested will be greatly reduced, which is not good for us!" Xiaoxing sighed.
"Oh, Anan's attack was too harsh and really scared them! Let them recuperate for the time being!" Li Yun agreed.
In my impression, Yang Mingdeng seemed to have vomited blood many times due to himself and Qi Shi, but this time was probably the most serious, and it might affect his determination to cultivate.
It would be a good idea to let Tiandu Mountain go for the time being.
"Huh? Ling Yunxuan finally couldn't help but call me!"
Li Yun scanned his consciousness and found that Ling Yunxuan was looking at the calligraphy and paintings he had arranged in the tea room, and stopped in front of a painting. Coincidentally, what he painted was the tung tree, which seemed to be the phoenix tree.
The family’s favorite tree.
Since I got the seeds of the Xiangtung tree from Fairy Xiangyun last time, it has grown into a towering tree in the space. It is full of charm when I draw it, and I almost want to come to life.
However, since it was to be hung in the tea room, in order not to make it too shocking, I built a back door, so the citron tree did not grow like the bamboo that Feng Fu had painted previously.
Could it be that Ling Yunxuan discovered something?
Li Yun stepped out and said with a smile: "Xiao Xuan, why are you calling me?"
"Little Yun Yun, this painting... was really painted by you?!" Ling Yunxuan said with a slightly trembling voice.
"Haha, the calligraphy and paintings in this teahouse are all by my own hand. I wonder if Xiaoxuan has any advice? I am all ears!"
"You are so modest! This Xiangtong is the most lifelike Xiangtong that I have ever seen. From the painting, I can even hear its life pulse and the sound of its breathing, and see the airflow of its breathing energy.
fluctuation…"
With his status as the Phoenix Master of Ling Yunxuan and his familiarity with the Xiangtong tree, it is not surprising that he would have such a feeling. Only he could see the extraordinary features of Li Yun's painting so keenly.
"Thank you for the compliment, Xiaoxuan! It's a random graffiti, I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed!"
"You?! You can hide it from others, but you can't hide it from me..."
"Oh? I wonder why Xiaoxuan said this?"
"This painting... already has a life in it, it's just hidden by you!"
"Is this...Xiaoxuan so sure?"
"Of course! This xiangtung tree has reached the level of a top-grade spiritual weapon. If you reveal it, it will definitely be a hundred feet tall and more than 90 feet wide. Such a xiangtung tree has been painted on this three-foot silk painting by you.
you…"
Li Yun was secretly surprised when he heard this. Although Ling Yunxuan's clone was a talented general, his feelings about this painting had reached such an extent that it could be said that it was absolutely perfect.
"Xiao Xuan...since you like it so much, I'll give it to you!" Li Yun whispered.
"Really?! Do you know how much this painting is worth?"
"No matter how much it is worth, it is just a painting. It is truly lucky if it can be obtained by someone who appreciates it!"
"Okay...okay! Well said!"
Ling Yunxuan praised it, feeling a little excited, and immediately put the painting into the jade box.
"Haha, I wonder if Xiaoxuan has anything else to do?"
"Oh? Do I have to call you only if I have something to do? If nothing happens, will you just show up?"
"This...of course not! It's just that now there are three Great Zhou Transformation Gods coming to Qingyuan Sect, and the juniors are going to Fenglingjiao to replace the ancestors so that someone can receive them."
"That's it! Then let's go!" Ling Yunxuan said casually.
"You want to go too?"
"certainly."
"That's...okay."
The two of them walked out of the cave and quickly headed towards Fenglingjiao.
…
The three gods Wang Yi, Xiong Bing and Qi Shi came to the Qingyuan Sect together, which immediately caused a shock in the sect. Ming Kongzi led Qu Zhenzi and others to hold an extremely grand welcome ceremony and welcomed the three people into the Qingyuan Hall.
He and Qi Shi had known each other for a long time, so when they met, it was natural that they would exchange pleasantries and reminisce about old friendships along the way.
Both of them had played the role of air pirates, and they knew each other tacitly, and they ignored the topic.
When they arrived at the palace, Ming Kongzi said: "It is really a great honor for three old friends to come to this place. I am deeply honored!"
"Haha, Brother Ming lives a leisurely pastoral life, but we are all busy and toiling!" Wang Yi laughed.
"Where is it? In my opinion, Brother Wang has a radiant face, fine skin and tender flesh. He is better maintained than a wealthy woman. His life is much better than that of a vulgar man like me!!!"
Ming Kongzi came close to Wang Yi, touched and patted him, and praised him.
Wang Yi quickly stepped aside and said with a smile: "Brother Ming, why do you still have this habit? It seems that the injury is not serious..."
"Oh? Do you want me to be seriously injured?"
"Haha, you touched my breast just now and didn't notice it was black, right?"
"There are so many black hairs, why aren't they black?"
"You? I mean the heart in your chest..."
"This... you can't touch it. I want to take another look." Ming Kongzi said with saliva on his face.
"Then it's better to skip it!"
Qi Shi laughed and said: "Brother Ming wants to see Brother Wang's heart. It's impossible..."
"Oh? But why?"
"Brother Wang has already found his wife..."
"I see. I wonder who that famous grass is?" Ming Kongzi asked anxiously.
"That famous grass..."
"Brother Qi, you can't talk nonsense, let alone in front of so many juniors!" Wang Yi snorted.
"Brother Wang, what you said is wrong. Since ancient times, famous grasses and famous flowers have been passed down as legends. They are role models for the younger generation of disciples. If you have to say... you have to say it! Haha!" Qi Shi laughed.
"you?!"
Ming Kongzi immediately pulled Qi Shi aside, and the two of them murmured, laughing darkly...
Wang Yi's face turned red and white, but he was helpless.
Xiong Bing looked on amused, but he shouted: "That's enough for you two! Why don't you just let us sit here? Hurry up and bring us something to eat and drink!"
"Serve the banquet!"
Tuzhenzi heard it from below and shouted quickly.
Soon, the spiritual vegetables and spiritual wine came up like water, and the fairy music started to play, making everyone happy.
"Where is Li Yun? Why haven't you seen him?" Xiong Bing asked loudly.
"Senior, do you know Li Yun from our sect?" Tuzhenzi asked curiously.
"That's right. It's Li Yun who brewed Xingyun Wine! I want to drink the wine he brewed himself!" Xiong Bing said harshly.
"This... senior, Yun'er just happened to be traveling. However, these Xingyun wines were brewed by him, and they are the best wines!"
"Haha! Although this wine is good, how can it compare with the wine he brewed himself?!"
"Oh? Brother Xiong is saying... Yun'er has a better wine in his hand?" Ming Kongzi interjected, a little uneasy.
Unexpectedly, Li Yun actually had better wine in his hands. He had not been able to drink it after being in the door for so long, but Xiong Bing drank it first.
