Chapter 396 - 396 383 Leaning Towards Tiger Mountain

Chapter 396: Chapter 383: Leaning Towards Tiger Mountain Chapter 396: Chapter 383: Leaning Towards Tiger Mountain Mutant Winged Dragon opted for silence, deliberating on something, and said: “Call Gao Ba and Sheng Kong here for me.” He indeed needed to discuss things thoroughly.

Slaughter Saint departed.

It didn’t take long for Gao Ba and Sheng Kong to arrive.

Mutant Winged Dragon said: “Everyone has worked hard to lure Fang Ziren and his group into our lair. Everyone has made great efforts.”

Sheng Kong asked: “Do we know if Qiao Fanfeng and his group are on their way?”

“Yes, it’s confirmed. They haven’t stopped, and they will likely reach here after nightfall,” Slaughter Saint of the Dragon Slaying Clan replied.

Gao Ba said, “Really? So we’ve already achieved a significant part of our goal?”

Mutant Winged Dragon shook his head, saying: “A problem exists now. Mitra Monk, along with the Army of Death from our Dragon Slaying Clan, will need a while before they can reach here.”

“How much time?”

“Two days at most. Therefore, it is imperative that we stay here and hold off Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu for a day. During this day, we cannot let them rescue Fang Ziren and his party and we cannot allow them to escape,” Mutant Winged Dragon stated. Swallowing Qiao Fanfeng and Fang Ziren alive was going to be a bit difficult; if the Army of Death arrived, the advantage would be immediately apparent.

Sheng Kong said: “Then we should properly adjust our plans and strategies.”

“Yes, it’s necessary to plan and strategize or we won’t be able to deal with the individuals from the Magic-Immortal Domain later.”

Gao Ba said, “What about Fang Ziren’s group? We’ve already spent half the day wiping them out.”

Elder Xi Feng immediately said: “Certainly not. They are the bait. Only if they’re present can we lure Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu. Without the bait, why would Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu bother coming?”

Gao Ba nodded, “Makes sense.”

“Only when they continually send out distress signals can Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu have no choice but to come to rescue them. We cannot kill them off too quickly; we must create the illusion of hope. If they see no hope at all, they’d think it’s a trap and it won’t end well.

So everything must be proportionate. We mustn’t make it seem that our primary targets are Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu. If the bait is too glaring, it will scare the fish away,” explained Elder Xi Feng.

Sheng Kong said: “Given this, the question becomes how to keep them here, preventing Qiao Fanfeng and his team from leaving.”

“Yes, we can’t let them leave before Mitra Monk and the others arrive,” Mutant Winged Dragon said.

“But I know that this Qiao Fanfeng is no fool. He must know what we’re planning and would be on high alert.”

“I can’t deny this, they will indeed be vigilant. So the topic returns to what strategy we can use to deceive them.”

“I believe you must have some ideas.”

“We must adjust. When they arrive, whether or not they will risk rescuing Fang Ziren and his group remains to be seen, but we want to try. This is such a good opportunity; we mustn’t simply give it up,” Mutant Winged Dragon had been planning this for a long time.

“Tell us about your plan.”

Mutant Winged Dragon said: “Here’s my plan. Gao Ba, you take your men to guard the Heavenly City Sect’s people. I will send Jing Po with some others to assist you. The only aim is to ensure that Fang Ziren and his cohort are not rescued by Qiao Fanfeng. Also, we cannot annihilate them.”

Gao Ba looked at him and said: “Understood.”

Mutant Winged Dragon continued: “At that time, the rest of our Dragon Slaying Clan, together with the forces of the Evil Domain, will engage Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu. Actually, ‘engage’ is not the right term, ‘hold off’ is more appropriate. Of course, if given the chance, game for a kill, why not?

But our focus should be waiting for the Army of Death to arrive. At that point, we will find a way to encircle them. This way, our numbers will increase dramatically, the advantage will be clear, making it easier to manage them,” He had greater trust in the power of the Army of Death, which had never disappointed him.

Sheng Kong glanced at Gao Ba and said: “Well then, what more is there to discuss? Since they’re coming, we might as well do battle. We’ve already encircled the members of the Heavenly City Sect, exerting great effort. To give up now would not be worthwhile.”

“So, shall we let loose and have a true battle?”

“Yes, a true battle it shall be.”

Mutant Winged Dragon said: “That’s pretty much the arrangement. Actions will depend on how Qiao Fanfeng and Guo Mingyu move. They definitely won’t be like Fang Ziren, rushing directly into the encirclement. We must proceed cautiously.”

Sheng Kong said: “Once they come, it’ll be easier.”

“Alright, everyone has worked hard. Rest well as everything depends on tonight. We cannot allow them to come so easily and yet leave even more effortlessly.”

Since they’d reached an agreement in advance, it was much easier to discuss things now.

Gao Ba and Sheng Kong also left to prepare.

Elder Xi Feng said: “I’ll send a letter to the Mitra Monk, urging him to hurry.”

“Yes.” Mutant Winged Dragon was constantly fine-tuning the plan. It had been half successful so far but still, it couldn’t go wrong. He did not want the Magic-Immortal Domain’s forces to escape.

Elder Xi Feng quickly left.

Although Qiao Fanfeng had decided to rescue Fang Ziren, he knew the journey would be dangerous. He kept looking at the map, afraid of missing any important detail. As they were about to enter, it was crucial to understand the situation inside to avoid falling into a trap set by the Dragon Slaying Clan’s members.

The most important thing was not whether he could rescue the people of the Heavenly City Sect. Instead, whether the people he led could safely retreat was the matter of concern.

Guo Mingyu came over, seeing Qiao Fanfeng’s concern. Qiao Fanfeng kept examining the map as though he wanted to memorize every single route and potential trap location.

Qiao Fanfeng said, “Guo junior brother, am I being too nervous?”

Guo Mingyu replied, “Somewhat, but I understand. We can’t risk failing to rescue Fang Ziren and getting ourselves caught in the process.”

“Right, in the Immortal and Demon Domain where we can meet those capable of fighting the Dragon Slaying Clan and the monster from the Evil Domain. All of them will be here, if anything goes wrong, I would be too embarrassed to face Sect Leader Su.”

“Hey, don’t put so much pressure on yourself, I believe everything will be fine.”

“Knowing full well we could be walking into a trap, we still have to go. I fear unforeseen circumstances that we cannot avoid.”

“I share your fear, but we don’t have a choice.”

“When the time comes, you must constantly remind me to be careful and never fall into others’ traps.” Qiao Fanfeng was afraid he might forget all this in the heat of the moment.

“Let’s both remind each other instead.”

“How do you think Ye Chen would react if he were here?”

“I believe he would choose to save Fang Ziren.”

“Really?”

“Yes, this young man is righteous. He would never abandon anyone.”

“If he were here, he could give us some advice.”

“Let’s see how things go. As far as I know, they aren’t that many of them. The Dragon Slaying Clan’s Mutant Winged Dragon only has about two thousand people, and the monsters from the Evil Domain should be around the same number. So, the difference in numbers between us isn’t that significant. We just have to be cautious, first, not to fall into a trap, and second, not to get entangled with them for more than a day.”

Qiao Fanfeng nodded in agreement.

“Didn’t Ye Chen say they’ll rush over as soon as possible?”

“I’m afraid the Dragon Slaying Clan won’t let them.”

“Ye Chen said he would figure something out.”

Qiao Fanfeng suddenly remembered Sect Leader Su and mournfully said, “What a pity for the Sect Leader.”

“Sigh, don’t dwell on it. We don’t have time for this. The key is to lead the Immortal and Demon Domain, defeat the Dragon Slaying Clan and the monsters from the Evil Domain. This is the focus. If we lose, the Immortal and Demon Domain will cease to exist.”

“I heard Heavenly City has turned into a sea of fire.”

“That’s the doing of Mutant Winged Dragon. He wants to turn the area he’s conquered into a sea of fire to terrify his opponents. Central Plains must not fall into such hands.” Guo Mingyu added, “Stop worrying. We have already sorted out all the routes. As long as we stay cautious, nothing will go wrong.”

“And Fang Ziren’s group?”

“They’re still continuously requesting for help,”

“As if it’s all intentional.”

“Yes, even though we know it could be a trap, we still have to go. Let’s just hope Mitra Monk’s Army of Death doesn’t arrive too soon. It would be advantageous for us.”

Qiao Fanfeng gave a dry laugh and said, “Make sure to track Mitra Monk’s location.”

“I will.”

Sure enough, Ye Chen’s group was ambushed. With well-prepared concealment on both sides of the dense forest, they did not panic facing those dashing out suddenly. Among the attackers, led by the Zen Master, some were fierce.

In the first round, monstrous beasts surged forward.

However, Yuan Menhai soon noticed that something was off. He said, “Weren’t they supposed to be the disciples of the New City Sect and Immortal City Sect led by Ren Xiongbei? Why are there so few of them, and where are Ren Xiongbei and the others?”

The Zen Master also noticed this issue.

Ming Bei said, “They might have decided to split up.”

The Zen Master said, “It’s very likely.” He knew Ye Chen, the Sect Leader of the New City Sect, the best among them. This young man would not allow himself to fall for the same trick twice.

Yuan Menhai added, “Even if it’s only the disciples of the New City Sect, there shouldn’t be so few of them. There should be more people.”

At that moment, Can Mo and Jiang Zhuge, leading their men, suddenly attacked from both sides, forming an arc and launching a pincer attack. They directly attacked from both sides, preventing the Zen Master’s followers from focusing their full attention at the front to handle Ye Chen’s group.

Yuan Menhai said, “It looks like our plan has been guessed by our opponents.”

Ming Bei said, “Yes, it has been seen through.”

The Zen Master ordered, “Find a way to tie them up, and don’t let them pass.”

“I think we need to inform Mutant Winged Dragon that Ren Xiongbei’s group might have already crossed over,” Yuan Menhai said.

The journey ahead for the Zen Master was getting smoother, but by then, it wouldn’t be so easy to keep them tangled, especially when dealing with the disciples of the New City Sect. He understood Ye Chen’s cleverness too well.

Ye Chen didn’t wish to fight with them unnecessarily.
