Chapter 400 - 400 386 Rescuing the Heavenly City Sect

Chapter 400: Chapter 386: Rescuing the Heavenly City Sect Chapter 400: Chapter 386: Rescuing the Heavenly City Sect Boom, boom…, several loud noises shattered the tranquility of the mountain, as Slaughter Saint came to tell Mutant Winged Dragon that they’ve come.

Xishan Gui said, “Good, we were just waiting for them to come in. We’ve all grown a little impatient.”

“Who’s leading the charge?” Mutant Winged Dragon asked.

“Guo Mingyu is leading the charge.”

“Didn’t see Qiao Fanfeng?”

Slaughter Saint replied, “No, he must be commanding from behind. They’re quite cautious, knowing we might encircle them.”

“Knowing won’t help them.” Mutant Winged Dragon said, “Quickly, according to our original plan, swing around them and encircle them.”

Slaughter Saint nodded in acknowledgement.

“How are our troops preparing?”

“They’ve been ready for a long time, ready to surround them at any moment.”

“That’s excellent.” Mutant Winged Dragon said, “Are the Demon King Gao Ba and his troops ready?”

“They’re also ready.”

“Let’s start the operation and try to box them in.” Soon, they started the operation.

Mutant Winged Dragon and Gao Ba began to circle around from behind Guo Mingyu, intending to enclose them like wrapping dumplings.

Soon, Guan Yi and Wan Shatong began to show their worth. Wan Shatong of the Dragon Slaying Clan muttered, “It seems these guys really want to box us in.”

Liu Yunzhi, the second in command of the Qingxuan Sect said, “Just as Alliance Leader Qiao said, they want to surround us, turning us into their dumplings.”

Wan Shatong said, “Remember, we must not allow them to succeed, we must hold on and not let them close off.”

“Understood, I’ll definitely block them.”

Wan Shatong noticed Guan Yi on the other side also engaged in battle and said, “Are they fighting over there too?”

“Yes, Guan Yi seems to have encountered people from the Demon Domain.”

“They’re trying to outflank us, cutting off our route.”

“Yes, everything is as Alliance Leader Qiao anticipated.”

“Alright, we must defend our side at all costs. I don’t care about other things, but I’m responsible for this side, and I won’t allow them to succeed.”

…

Qiao Fanfeng’s disciple, Li Bo, came over and said, “Master, they really intend to encircle us.”

“I’ve noticed.” Qiao Fanfeng then asked, “How are Guo Mingyu and his team?”

“They’ve already charged in and now confronted Sheng Kong and Jing Po. They’re trying to break their encirclement.”

Qiao Fanfeng nodded.

“I think it’s time to signal Song Zheng’an and his team.” Li Bo said.

“No, not so soon. We must wait for an hour and wait until Guo Mingyu completely disrupts Sheng Kong and Jing Po, let them genuinely believe we intend to rescue Fang Ziren from Guo Mingyu’s side.”

Li Bo nodded in understanding.

Qiao Fanfeng glanced ahead as his other disciple, Fan Fei, rushed back and said, “Gao Ba is handling Guan Yi, and Mutant Winged Dragon is dealing with Wan Shatong.”

“Mutant Winged Dragon came out too?”

“Yes.”

“I have to go there.” There aren’t many people who can stand up against Mutant Winged Dragon. Even with the Sacred Pearl in his possession, he could only hold on for a while.

“Master, let them handle it.” Fan Fei said.

Yet, Qiao Fanfeng worried that Wan Shatong might not be able to hold off Mutant Winged Dragon and something unexpected might happen. He said, “No, I need to go to the front.” It seemed that he could only relax once he personally faced off with Mutant Winged Dragon. He added, “Remember, signal Song Zheng’an to rescue Fang Ziren and his team an hour later.”

Qiao Fanfeng went to the front. He had to stand off against this damn Mutant Winged Dragon—he was the biggest threat. Unless he personally confronted him, he wouldn’t be at ease. Although he was no match for Mutant Winged Dragon, the presence of the Immortal Pearl and a few of his capable subordinates should keep Mutant Winged Dragon in check.

His current goal was clear: to rescue Fang Ziren and his team first.

Guo Mingyu, along with his disciples Ling Jian and Song Shuangfeng, had already reached the periphery and began efforts to rip open the encircling circle. They resolutely tried to rupture the enclosure.

Guo Mingyu knew very well that the more ferociously his side attacked, the more likely it would be for Song Zheng’an to rescue Fang Ziren and his team when he broke out. His role was simply to attract firepower, a crucial position. He was determined to disrupt the Dragon Slaying Clan’s rhythm, leading them to believe that the people from the Demon and Immortal Realms intended to rescue Fang Ziren and his team from his side.

Fang Ziren and his team brightened a little when they saw the people from Demon and Immortal Realms coming to their rescue. They began to desperately charge, intending to break out from Guo Mingyu’s side.

Guo Mingyu told Ling Jian never to enter the encirclement; that would be a grave mistake they couldn’t afford to make.

Boom, boom… The trees in Lin Zilin’s forest had ignited, startling the animals within to fly chaotically. The cries of the Mutant Winged Dragon echoed incessantly, shattering the tranquility of the mountains. The forest at night was no different from the day. The smell of charring filled the air. Although the density of trees wasn’t too high, significant parts of it had already burned down.

…

The Demon Domain’s Huan Huo muttered, “Hehe, dreaming of saving someone from us in broad daylight. I think these folks are missing a few screws if they believe they could rescue Fang Ziren in a day. Do they really think we’re pushovers?”

He called for reinforcements from the other side, gathering everyone to block Guo Mingyu.

Huan Huo continued, “If you guys could easily save him, our people from the Demon Domain wouldn’t survive in the Central Plains!”

Shi Tuo also stepped forward. Boom, boom… Guo Mingyu now faced Sheng Kong and Jing Po on the front lines. By then, Fang Ziren had also arrived, hoping to rip an escape route out of their midst.

Mutant Winged Dragon, leading his team, combated Qiao Fanfeng, who didn’t dare to underestimate them. After several rounds of fighting, the power of Mutant Winged Dragon’s sword seemed significantly powerful, giving Qiao Franfeng a hard time.

In spite of this, Qiao Fanfeng had experienced worse. To him, victory was not about defeating Mutant Winged Dragon but rather holding off the enemy so as to prevent them from cutting off their retreat, buying time for Guo Mingyu’s rescue mission. At that moment, his mind remained as clear as ever.

Mutant Winged Dragon attacked viciously, aiming to sever their retreat route swiftly. However, Qiao Fanfeng would never allow his plan to succeed.

By this time, the numbers on both sides were more or less equal. Excising their escape route, crucial for securing their advantage, appeared to be a tough task.

Slaughter Saint joined Mutant Winged Dragon and commented, “They expected us. Anticipated that we would attempt to cut off their retreat.”

“Well, we’re targeting each other openly now.” Elder Xi Feng responded, “We both know what the other is up to.”

“But we lack manpower. If we had just a thousand more men, we’d definitely be victorious.” Slaughter Saint responded.

Mutant Winged Dragon questioned, “What’s the situation with Sheng Kong and Jing Po?”

Slaughter Saint replied, “It’s manageable on their side. I’d say it’s not going to be easy for them to make a gap and let Fang Ziren’s group escape.”

Upon hearing this, Elder Xi Feng commented, “We can draw the battle in our favor by stalling them. Best case scenario, time is on our side.”

“Exactly, we can afford to draw this out, but they can’t. All we need is for Mituom Monk to arrive, and then we’ll have a plan for them.” Slaughter Saint agreed with Elder Xi Feng’s logic.

Still, as vigilant as Qiao Fanfeng had been, Mutant Winged Dragon believed that he must have considered this scenario. It was uncertain whether they’d be able to keep Qiao Fanfeng and his group pinned by stalling. Maybe they’d simply abandon Fang Ziren at any moment. It might be more reassuring to bring their forces together.

Mutant winged Dragon stated, “It won’t work. If we don’t group together, Qiao Fanfeng and his folks could escape at any time. They won’t wait for Mituom Monk to arrive.”

Having heard this, Elder Xi Feng understood Mutant Winged Dragon’s point.

“If possible, we need to band together. With him already inside the encirclement, if we don’t band together, he could escape at any time.”

Upon hearing this, Slaughter Saint nodded and responded, “I understand. We’ll try to team up with Gao Ba and his group, see if we can gather together.”

“Hmm, everyone should redouble their efforts. We can certainly band together.”

While they were still discussing, Song Zheng’an appeared from the opposite ridge of the mountain.

Mutant Winged Dragon asked, “What’s going on?” Slaughter Saint hurried to the rear.

It quickly became clear. He reported back, “A group has penetrated the ranks from the rear, aiming to join forces with Guo Mingyu’s group and rescue Fang Ziren.”

“A group from the rear, huh? I didn’t expect Qiao Fanfeng to be this shrewd. Not so dumb after all.”

“They are desperate,” Mutant Winged Dragon noted.

“Seems I’ve underestimated Qiao Fanfeng,” Mutant Winged Dragon admitted.

“They are using Guo Mingyu to draw Sheng Kong and Jing Po’s attention, leading them to believe that they would break the siege from the south. However, their real goal is to evade the encirclement from the rear.” Slaughter Saint made his deduction.

“Hmm, I see that.”

Elder Xi Feng interjected, “If it’s as you say, and they have enough people, Fang Ziren’s group could potentially escape.”

At that moment, one of Jing Po’s men rushed forward exclaiming, “It’s not good! We need reinforcements ASAP, or Fang Ziren and his folks will be saved.”

Slaughter Saint yelled, “I’m going! I’ll stop them! They definitely won’t be able to save Fang Ziren and his group.”

But Mutant Winged Dragon suddenly called out, “Wait!” As if he’d thought of something.

Elder Xi Feng said, “If we send more men to reinforce the rear now, it would prevent us from encircling Qiao Fanfeng and his men. That would be almost impossible.”

“So, are we just going to watch them rescue Fang Ziren’s group?” Slaughter Saint spat out.

Mutant Winged Dragon asked suddenly, “Do you think Guo Mingyu’s group is more important or Fang Ziren’s?”

“Of course, it’s Guo Mingyu’s group. He is the Sect leader of the Demon Palace, after all.” Slaughter Saint answered.

“Yes, as the Demon Palace’s Sect Leader, it’s impossible for him not to be more important than Fang Ziren’s team.” Mutant Winged Dragon stated.
