Chapter 630 - 630 616 The East Wind Has Come

Chapter 630: Chapter 616: The East Wind Has Come Chapter 630: Chapter 616: The East Wind Has Come Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhuge gradually comprehended a bit and said, “You want Shen Bai and others to join us in an alliance to first eradicate Xiao Bai and Chen Jiu.”

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Indeed, when Xiao Bai brings people back to rescue Chen Jiu, we can surround them, forming an even larger encirclement. Shen Bai and others can join us in trapping them. I believe we can succeed. Xiao Bai would never anticipate this. I know all too well that Chen Jiu is fearful of dying. As long as we’re ruthless, we’re bound to succeed.”

Upon hearing this, Li Mo said, “In that case, why not involve the bearded man in the encirclement? When the Xue brothers come over at that time, we can surround them all.”

Ye Chen shook his head and said, “That’s not possible. I’ve surveyed the terrain over there, it is not suitable for such a large encirclement. Also, we don’t have the strength to swallow up two groups of them and surround so many people all at once. If we can take down Xiao Bai’s people, that would already be a great achievement.”

Jiang Zhuge immediately nodded and said, “This is a good idea. If we can really devour Xiao Bai and Chen Jiu, dealing with the bearded man would be a piece of cake.”

“Now they’re coming to our Bamboo Forest Valley and with so many people stepping out in force, it’s a perfect opportunity for us to act.” Ye Chen continued, “In that case, Jiang Zhuge, you and Kong Sha lead our people to surround Chen Jiu at the exit tonight. I’ll persuade the Xue brothers to attack the bearded man’s base, forcing him to retreat.

Then I’ll go bring Shen Bai and Zhao Kun over. I believe that by tomorrow morning, we can have them reach the exit. By that time, Xiao Bai should be back.”

Li Mo said, “Then there’s no more to discuss, we need to act promptly.”

Ye Chen quickly made arrangements.

Li Mo chuckled and said, “Let them beat the air.”

“Everyone, be cautious and bear with some hardship. How we seize this opportunity to escape the dark zone all depends on this round.” Ye Chen directed Jiang Zhuge and Kong Sha to act first.

Jiang Zhuge said, “Don’t worry, we promise that before nightfall, we’ll have them at the exit.”

“Okay, after dark, you’ll strike, they’re only three hundred men, you can surround them.” Ye Chen continued, “Alright, you guys go quickly, I need to find the Xue brothers as well. They shouldn’t be returning so soon. Be sure to make good use of time, definitely surround Chen Jiu before they get back.”

Ye Chen glanced at Rong’er beside him and said, “Rong’er, you’ll go with Jiang Zhuge and them when the time comes.”

“Okay, don’t worry, I can protect myself.”

Ye Chen prepared to leave.

Guo Yuyun flew over and said, “I want to go with you too.”

“Isn’t it better for both of you to be at the exit?” Ye Chen replied.

“I prefer being with you.”

“What a nuisance.” Ye Chen took Li Mo and a dozen other people and left.

Li Mo asked, “Who should we look for first?”

“We’re going to find the Xue brothers.”

A dozen fast horses galloped out of the Bamboo Forest Valley.

The bearded man and Xiao Bai were only ten miles away from the Bamboo Forest Valley.

There were no noticeable movements behind them.

Xiao Bai asked, “Is there any news of the Xue brothers or Shen Bai?”

The bearded man laughed, “They’ve been frightened into submission, they wouldn’t dare come. If they did, I’d stew them all up and wipe them out.”

Meanwhile, unknown events had transpired in the Bamboo Forest Valley. Suddenly, the valley was filled with smoke and even the Winged Dragons in the sky couldn’t make out what was happening inside. Furthermore, the mysterious forest of the Bamboo Forest Valley was usually shrouded in fog.

The scout, Xiao Han, rushed back.

Xiao Bai asked, “What’s the situation?”

“I don’t know what the devil the New City Sect is up to, suddenly there’s thick fog and black smoke, we can’t discern what’s actually going on inside,” Xiao Han said.

The bearded man said, “I’ve heard that the kid loves playing such tricks, using them to deceive people.”

Ling Bo advised, “We still need to be careful, we can’t fall for their schemes.”

Xiao Bai nodded, feeling Ling Bo’s words made sense.

“How do we attack?” asked the bearded man.

Xiao Han estimated, “The fog will probably not dissipate anytime soon.”

The bearded man barked angrily, “Even with heavy fog, it won’t save them. We must take Bamboo Forest Valley today, we will eradicate them.”

Xiao Bai glanced at Ling Bo and asked, “Ling Bo, are you certain there’s no movement from the Xue brothers or Shen Bai?”

“Don’t worry, I’ve left people behind on every key route. If they are coming this way, I will definitely be the first to know what’s happening,” Ling Bo answered.

Xiao Bai nodded in response.

“Enough talk, let’s move in and finish them off.”

However, Xiao Bai was aware of the kid’s prowess, having clashed with him many times. He had to be cautious, he said, “Send in a group first to scout the situation. Let the Winged Dragons kill a few first.”

“Dilly-dallying, we should have stormed in by now!” the bearded man grumbled.

With a small number of people left behind and traps set, Jiang Zhuge took advantage of the smoke to mess with Xiao Bai and the bearded man’s people for a bit. Thankfully, they had been well-prepared.

Ye Chen found the Xue brothers and immediately explained his plan to them.

Xue Tian agreed at once, saying, “This is indeed a good idea.”

“Yeah, when the time comes, I’ll need you guys to hold off the bearded guys for us. Just distract them so they can’t join in. We’ll quickly deal with Xiao Bai and the rest,” said Ye Chen.

Xue Ran brightened up at his words. “If we manage to eliminate Xiao Bai’s people first, handling the bearded guys later will be much easier.”

Ye Chen nodded and said, “Then we’ll leave the bearded guys to you.”

“Rest assured, we will definitely hold off the bearded guys. We won’t let them interfere,” Xue Tian promised.

“I hope so. Let’s settle them once and for all this time.” Ye Chen left quickly with Li Mo and others to find Shen Bai and Zhao Kun.

Watching Ye Chen and his crew depart, Xue Ran said, “The Sect Leader of the New City Sect is indeed a talent.”

Xue Tian nodded in agreement.

“No wonder Wei Sisan has taken a liking to him. He’s just an eighteen-year-old kid, quite remarkable.”

Xue Tian urged, “Stop wasting time, let’s go prepare at once. Let’s take our men and attack the bearded guys’ stronghold.”

“Let’s wipe out that bootlicking king, Tan Gao!” Xue Ran was already bouncing with excitement.

Xue Tian knew that this golden opportunity might not come again. If they handle this well, they will become the most powerful leaders in this dark area. Needless to say, the benefits are immense.

Xue Ran chuckled, “Once we get rid of the bearded guys, the New City Sect will inevitably return to the Wastelands. From then on, we will be the masters of this dark area.”

“Let’s hurry up and prepare.”

Last time, Ye Chen had already discussed with Shen Bai and the others to deal with Xiao Bai and the bearded guys together. They also agreed to follow the New City Sect’s instructions.

Once Ye Chen told them the plan, Shen Bai and Zhao Kun, of course, agreed.

Zhao Kun said, “If we can wipe out Xiao Bai and his men in one fell swoop, and then turn around and slay the bearded guys, it’ll be over in a snap. And what’s there to say? Let’s fight with them until we’ve wiped out Xiao Bai and his crew. They don’t take us seriously, thinking they can come and go as they please. They truly believe this dark area is theirs. They even guard the entrance and exit, not allowing us free access. If we don’t deal with them after all this, it would be against natural justice.”

The other sect leaders nodded in agreement, their gazes falling on Shen Bai. Shen Bai said, “Since everyone agrees, of course I agree too.”

Ye Chen replied, “Opportunities are fleeting. After nightfall, our men will attack Chen Jiu and his crew. I believe Chen Jiu will soon seek help from Xiao Bai. As the bearded guys are drawn away by the Xue brothers, we must set out at once to arrive at the entrance before Xiao Bai returns.”

Zhao Kun nodded, “No problem. I will call our men together right now. We should be ready to leave in two hours.”

Ye Chen said, “That will be perfect. Everyone has been through a lot. I believe we all want to quickly resolve the situation in this dark area. Let’s work together.”

Shen Bai and Zhao Kun quickly went to prepare.

…

The people left in Bamboo Forest Valley used the smoke and the traps they had prepared in advance to mess with the bearded guys for most of the day. When the time was right, they quietly slipped away.

It wasn’t until then that Xiao Bai realized that Bamboo Forest Valley had long been deserted.

He led the bearded guys in, causing a huge shock.

The bearded guy snarled, “Damn it, where are the people?”

Ling Bo reasoned, “It appears they detected our approach and left beforehand.”

“Damn it, doesn’t that mean we came here for nothing?” The bearded guy was so infuriated he couldn’t speak properly.

Ling Bo said, “No wonder there was no movement from the Xue brothers or Shen Bai. It turns out the New City Sect abandoned Bamboo Forest Valley.” It seemed he finally understood what was going on.

The bearded guy yelled, “Think they can escape? Think again! Burn this place down, don’t leave a single spot untouched. Let’s see where they can run.”

Before anyone realized, it was already dusk.

Xiao Bai fell silent.

Xiao Han ran over, asking, “Father, is there something you’re worried about?”

Xiao Bai shook his head.

“Father, have something to eat. It’s just a small setback. They won’t be so lucky next time.”

But Xiao Bai knew very well how capable Ye Chen was, understanding that this young man was no simpleton. He was somewhat uneasy, worrying that the New City Sect might take other actions.

“You should eat something too. Our men need to rest a bit.”

Xiao Han sat down, asking, “Father, are you worrying that this might be part of the New City Sect’s plan?”

Xiao Bai remained silent.

“I don’t think so. We only decided to attack Bamboo Forest Valley today. They must have seen our vast numbers and, fearing they couldn’t handle us, decided to retreat.”

But Xiao Bai said, “That young man is truly capable. He probably predicted in advance that we would likely attack Bamboo Forest Valley. Knowing they couldn’t hold out, they must have retreated ahead of time. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have retreated so quietly and cleanly. He truly is a formidable character.”
