Chapter 236: Chapter 226: Gua Zhengnie Breaks the Plan of Tianle City Chapter 236: Chapter 226: Gua Zhengnie Breaks the Plan of Tianle City In the courtyard, Can Mo and the others had arrived.

However, one thing that Can Mo didn’t understand, he asked, “A fight has already broken out, so why are we only hearing about it now?”

Kong Sha said, “It must be a conspiracy. They distracted Jiang Zhuge’s group and ambushed them when they were relaxed. They were disguised as merchants. Thankfully, our people discovered this group, otherwise, Tianle City would have been taken over by these disguised people.”

Can Mo surprisingly asked, “When did Jiang Zhuge become so careless?”

Wei Sisan fell silent for a while, his eyes fixed on the map, before saying, “Let’s not discuss this for now.”

Can Mo enquired, “Who is leading the attack on the city? Is it Zen Master? How many people does he have?”

“About eight hundred people are attacking the city, led by Shen Tian. Gua Zhengnie and Yang Jing are in their ranks,” said Kong Sha.

“Those two rascals always stir up trouble.”

“What about Zen Master?”

“Zen Master will not make it here so quickly, he will need some time.”

“Then we should immediately send someone to help them, we can’t let them capture Tianle City.”

At this point, Ling’er and Ye Chen, who were still arguing, walked in.

After hearing the debate inside, the pair became serious.

Can Mo said, “Sect Leader, you should tell us how we should respond.”

Wei Sisan said, “I plan on sending Ye Chen with six hundred people. By the time Zen Master arrives, they should already be in Tianle City.”

Li Mo anxiously said, “Their target wouldn’t be Wasteland City instead of Tianle City, would it?”

Kong Sha said, “I’ve assessed the situation. It’s not. They split their forces into two groups and didn’t arrive as quickly as expected. However, if Zen Master reaches Tianle City and teams up with Shen Tian, I’m afraid Jiang Zhuge’s group won’t stand a chance.”

“But once Ye Chen takes our soldiers there, won’t they turn around and attack Wasteland City?”

“Let’s not think about that first. We need to focus on relieving the siege of Tianle City for now,” Wei Sisan understood the importance of Tianle City to Wasteland City. Without Tianle City, the enemy could directly attack Wasteland City. Protecting Tianle City would force the enemy to consider its existence when attacking Wasteland City.

“They dream of taking Tianle City with their group of remnants and defeated soldiers,” Li Mo said.

Wei Sisan warned, “We mustn’t underestimate them.”

Li Mo bowed his head.

“Ye Chen, you take the trip. Go to Tianle City immediately.”

Ye Chen nodded. Over time, he had grown accustomed to this. He was also eager to find out who this Zen Master was who had created such apprehension in everyone upon entering the Wastelands.

Wei Sisan said, “You and Can Mo work well together, so handle this task together.”

“Alright, what should we do when we arrive at Tianle City?”

“I don’t know what Zen Master is up to, but from what I can see, he intends to capture Tianle City. Your job is to protect it.”

“Understood,” nodded Ye Chen.

“Keep us informed of any developments,” Wei Sisan told Can Mo. “Pick the men.”

Ling’er said, “I want to go too.”

However, Wei Sisan responded, “Ling’er, you should stay out of this one.” Facing the truculent Zen Master, Wei Sisan couldn’t take any chances.

At first, Ling’er refused, but she quickly relented after Wei Sisan explained the situation.

“Ye Chen, you’re in charge. Be careful. We haven’t had any run-ins with Zen Master before. For him to enlist Gua Zhengnie in such a short time, he’s not an easy opponent.”

Ye Chen wanted to retort that he wasn’t a pushover either.

“In regular circumstances, I wouldn’t have wanted you to take on this task. But it seems now, there’s no choice,” Wei Sisan trusted Ye Chen’s abilities, especially his performance recently, which had greatly impressed him.

Ye Chen smiled slightly, “I’m used to it.”

Wei Sisan replied with a smile, “Good to know. I don’t need to explain further.”

“With so many people, I can rest easy entrusting this task to you. I cannot be so confident if I were to entrust it to anyone else.”

“Thank you, Sect Leader, for your trust in me. I’ll do my best.”

“Alright, your words alone are enough.”

Gua Zhengnie, who held a grudge against the New City Sect, planned to advise Shen Tian.

Shen Tian had just learned that a group of disciples from the New City Sect was hastily heading to Tianle City. If he couldn’t come up with a way to capture Tianle City tonight, it wouldn’t be easy tomorrow.

He had previously pledged to Zen Master that he would capture Tianle City quickly.

However, after actually starting the battle, he realized that the New City Sect was indeed different from those small sects he had previously pacified.

Shen Li said, “If we don’t capture Tianle City before the disciples from the New City Sect arrive, we will have to wait for Zen Master to think of a strategy.”

“””)

The setup by the disciples of the New City Sect was orderly and solemn. Despite their intense assault, they remained unflustered. Moreover, the city was filled with traps, making it difficult to infiltrate. Even if they managed to enter, only a portion could get through, not enough to make a significant impact.

Shen Tian was silently contemplating something.

“Indeed, it’s challenging, no wonder it’s the New City Sect. I underestimated them,” Shen Li continued, “Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to so thoroughly defeat Gua Zhengnie’s forces.”

“Don’t boost their morale,” Shen Tian said.

“Yes,” Shen Li replied, “Brother, we don’t have a better strategy.”

At this time, Gua Zhengnie walked in. He was still somewhat unwilling to obey Shen Tian, but now he had chosen to join them.

Gua Zhengnie said, “I have a method that can help you conquer the city.” At this moment, Gua Zhengnie was intent on revenge.

Shen Tian asked, “What method?”

“I have some people hidden inside Tianle City. They can help us create chaos,” it turned out that over the years, Gua Zhengnie had been planning, hiding some people in Tianle City for emergencies. It seems like they could be of use this time.

“How do you plan to breach the city? How many people do you have inside?”

“We have about seventy to eighty people. Despite their few numbers, they are all my trusted confidants and their martial arts skills are outstanding. They can cause chaos within the city, and the New City Sect won’t be able to concentrate on guarding the city. They’ll inevitably be overwhelmed.” He was still angry about how Wei Sisan managed to infiltrate Wasteland City and felt the need to retaliate.

Shen Li said, “It actually might work.”

“I’ll ask them to set fire. Once the fire starts, the New City Sect will have to send people to extinguish the flames. They have a limited number of people. If they focus on the fire and rescue efforts, won’t it be easier for you to break through?”

Shen Li said, “What if they have the common people to put out the fire?”

“In addition to setting fires, our people can also release the beasts. The ordinary people who do not know martial arts won’t be able to handle our forces, they’ll be too occupied to handle anything else,” said Gua Zhengnie confidently.

Upon hearing this, Shen Li said, “This method might be inhumane, but it’s indeed feasible.”

“I must make Wei Sisan pay,” Gua Zhengnie declared in a vehement tone.

Shen Tian gave a faint smile and said: “I am curious, how did Wei Sisan penetrate Wasteland City?”

“It’s shame to admit it, but we acquired one of their mansions. They left a passageway in our mansion that led outside. On that day, they used this passageway unexpectedly, allowing people to enter and attack through it. We were totally caught off guard. They rapidly took control of our mansion, captured many of our subordinates’ families, which enabled them to take over Wasteland City.”

“Hehe, seems like this Wei Sisan had thoroughly planned this. You thought you had a great advantage.”

“Yes, we were too careless. They wouldn’t have been able to conquer the city otherwise. Wei Sisan is cunning. Outsiders might consider him a gentleman, but in my eyes, he’s nothing but a hypocrite who fools people. However, he can’t fool people like us who see things clearly.”

Shen Li, feeling that the plan was viable, said, “Brother, we have no better method. We can only give it a try. Once the reinforcements from New City arrive, we will lose our chance. We can ambush them while they are unaware.”

“Does Shen Tian think my methods are too ruthless?” Gua Zhengnie asked.

Shen Tian gave a faint smile.

“Maybe they are a bit ruthless, but I can explain to the Zen Master. I’ll say the plan was my idea.”

Shen Li said, “Brother, stop doubting, there always comes a price. I think this plan can work. We should occupy Tianle City as soon as possible, which will be beneficial for our attack on Wasteland City. We don’t want to provoke the whole Wasteland immediately. We want to maintain a good impression first.”

“It’s just burning a few buildings and leaving the kind-hearted Jiang Zhuge in a quandary.”

Shen Tian said, “Well, we’ll proceed as per your plan. We’ll attack first. You give the signal to your people inside, and when the time is right, they will set the fire and release the beasts.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll make sure they’ll pay.” Gua Zhengnie was determined to avenge his defeat. If it wasn’t for his desire for revenge, he wouldn’t have even told them this plan. The blow dealt by Wei Sisan had to be returned, he wanted him to suffer.

“Get ready,” Shen Tian spoke again, “Gua Zhengnie, you should take charge of your people.”

Gua Zhengnie nodded.

They prepared to besiege the city again, this time under Gua Zhengnie’s strategy.

Jiang Zhuge did not expect them to attack during the night.

A disciple said, “These people, don’t they ever get tired?”

But Jiang Zhuge said, “We must not let our guard down.”

Another disciple said, “Could it be that they found out that Wasteland City has already sent people over?”

Zhi Lang Taoist Priest nodded and said, “It’s likely.”

“They fear our people would arrive soon and it would be harder for them to take over Tianle City.”

Hearing this, Jiang Zhuge fell into silence for awhile and said, “Tonight, we cannot let our guard down.”

After Gua Zhengnie left, Shen Tian and Shen Li were the only ones left. Shen Tian said, “Whether we can take down Tianle City depends on the two of us. We can’t just rely on Gua Zhengnie. When the time’s right, we’ll fight our way in together.”

“Yes, got it.”

“You lead the people, get ready, when the fire is lit inside, we’ll prepare to go in.”

“Alright, rest assured, there will be no delay.”

Shen Li nodded in response.
