Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 222 – Revenge

After exiting the smithing courtyard, it was already late in the morning, so Yang Junshan hurried out of the village. Ning Ran, Wang Zong and the rest were already there, the only person missing was Yang Junshan.

“Why did you come back at sucime? Brother Ning and I have been waiting for such a long time!” Wang Zong’s tone carried a hint of complaint.

In this period of time, because of Liu Zhifei’s forceful control, the members of the third team were all acting in harmony with each other. However, this did not mean that there was no one who disliked him, as Yang Junshan was clearly someone who Wang Zong disliked.

With a magical tool in hand and a spiritual technique as a legacy, he was already at the second level of martial arts realm at the age of eighteen, and was even favored by the main body of the team, Liu Zhifei. He even gave him the meritorious service of the human head, which made it even more unavoidable for Wang Zong, who was also at the second level of cultivation, to feel jealousy in his heart.

However, even though he was unwilling, Yang Junshan’s cultivation, strength, and battle achievements were obvious, Wang Zong did not have the guts to fight against Yang Junshan, but he had thought of taking advantage of Ning Ran’s momentum, because the Wangshan Town that he was born in was originally one of the traditional influence of the Ning Family. Although in the past few years, it had been a disaster for the giant locust, and then, the influence of the Ning Family had been affected greatly.

Yang Junshan only glanced at Wang Zong with a smile on his face, and then smiled at Ning Ran: “Meeting someone I know, I couldn’t help but say a few more words, I’ve troubled you all to wait for a long time, I’m sorry.”

Wang Zong opened his mouth to say something, but then he heard Ning Ran who was by his side laugh: “It’s alright, we just arrived too.”

Wang Zong’s expression changed, but in the end, he swallowed his words back.

When everyone returned to the stronghold, they saw Liu Zhifei anxiously walking around, while Xiong Xiyi stood by the side with her usual indifferent and expressionless face.

When Ning Ran saw the scene in front of him, he could not help but ask: “Senior brother Liu, did something big happen? Why don’t you inform us using the Message Talisman s? ”

Liu Zhifei did not directly answer Ning Ran’s question, but turned and asked: “How are Luo Bingkun’s injuries?”

Ning Ran said: “Junior Zhou said that Junior Zhang has already concocted a Spirit Protection Pill for him, and will be back in three days, his strength will not be affected at all, it’s just that the skin on his back is probably burnt.”

“Junior brother Zhang?” Zhang Yueming? ”

Liu Zhifei’s luck is not bad, in the past two days, he had finally heard a piece of good news. He did not expect Junior Brother Zhang to even be able to refine a Spirit Protecting Pill, this kind of spirit rank medicine, and is truly worthy of being called the number one genius of our sect. Not only is his cultivation difficult for him to compete with cultivators of the same cultivation level, his pill refining skills are also becoming more and more brilliant.

Then, Liu Zhifei retracted the happy look on his face and said seriously: “Let’s talk about proper matters. The more I think about it in the past few days, the more I feel that I have been tricked by the Sirius Gate. I can’t take this lying down, we need to take our revenge.”

Ning Ran frowned, and said: “But didn’t they hear that Mengyu County’s Adept Chen s are going to open up field at the border, so they need to restrain themselves as much as possible?”

“Restraining my ass!”

Liu Zhifei was instantly enraged, but then, as if he had realized something, he forcefully restrained his anger and said: “Even if we restrain ourselves, what if we have the chance?”

Everyone looked at each other, they did not know what Liu Zhifei meant, but Xiong Xiyi who had been standing quietly at the side suddenly opened her mouth: “Do it!”

Ning Ran looked at Xiong Xiyi, and said while pondering: “If there really is a suitable opportunity, we will naturally not let it go. I just don’t know what exactly is the opportunity that Senior Brother Liu is talking about?”

At this time, it could be seen that even though there were ten people in the third team, the only people who could make a decision were Liu Zhifei, Ning Ran and Xiong Xiyi.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Liu Zhifei’s spirits were immediately lifted, and he said: “I’ve been secretly observing the opposing Sirius Gate’s border guard squad’s patrolling process through the warning talisman these past few days, but I’ve gradually discovered some rules. We might as well do something about this.”

Ning Ran knew that Liu Zhifei never did anything without preparation. Seeing him being so serious, he already knew that he had some confidence, so he asked: “What is the rule?”

Liu Zhifei said: “Strictly speaking, it cannot be considered a rule, it is just that in these few days of Sirius Gate patrolling, I managed to deduce the position of the Sirius Gate’s stronghold.”

Xiong Xiyi frowned, and asked: “Attack a foothold?”

Liu Zhifei shook his head and laughed, “Of course not, fighting a stronghold is not something that our little group can handle. Even if we include the fifth and seventh squads, it wouldn’t be enough.”

Ning Ran was a little confused: “Then Senior Brother Liu mean …”

Liu Zhifei took ouiece of paper from his chest pocket, spread it out and found a map of the southern borders of the Mengyu County. He then pointed to the two spots on the map and said: “This place is approximately the stronghold of the two Sirius Gate’s patrol teams opposite us. Take a look at this place, the borders of this place are caved in towards the Mengyu County.

Seeing that everyone was listening attentively to his plan, Liu Zhifei became even more excited, and said: “Because this is a valley, we can hide our tracks as much as possible in the instant before the battle. As long as we determine when they should patrol this valley, we can block them within the valley.”

Ning Ran looked at the map and thought about Liu Zhifei’s plan. After a while, he said: “This is indeed able to catch them off guard, but it is only able to catch them off guard. Unless the Sirius Gate’s leader is confused, they will definitely choose to break through the encirclement at the first possible moment.

Liu Zhifei said: “I also did not think that we would be able to surround the Sirius Gate’s group like what happened to Squad Five earlier. Besides, both sides were much more careful in the previous battle, so finding that kind of opportunity is simply impossible.

Ning Ran was a little discouraged, “In other words, that we have to rely on the outcome of the battle that happened to both parties. After that, once the Sirius Gate’s border guard team leaves, even if we want to stop them, we will be unable to do so, unless we use the strength of two small teams to attack together with an absolute advantage.”

Xiong Xiyi shook her head: “Impossible!”

Liu Zhifei also said, “That’s right, ever since Squad Five suffered heavy losses last time, both sides have increased their surveillance of each other. If our squad had pretended to patrol and slowly approached them at the right time without arousing the other party’s attention, and if two squads had patrolled at the same time, we probably would have already been discovered by the other party before we even left the stronghold.”

Ning Ran said: “A team is like a small team, this way, whether or not we can kill the enemy cultivators will depend on our luck, right?”

Liu Zhifei also laughed bitterly: “Indeed, if we are lucky, we might kill one or two before the other party can react, but if we are unlucky, we would only be able to scare them, but luckily our strength is still on par with each other, and we will always have the chance to kill them once or twice.”

Hearing the discussion of the three people, Yang Junshan could not help but ask: “What if there is a formation?”

Wang Zong finally seized the opportunity and taunted with a sneer, “That’s easy to say. Little Yang, do you know what an array master means? How could it be so easy to find one? “You are just standing there and talking without feeling any pain at all!”

Xiong Xiyi’s pupils shrank, she unconsciously looked at Yang Junshan witint of deep meaning, while Liu Zhifei was a bit unhappy: “If there was an array master, would we still need to waste our time thinking like that, but where should we go to find an array master? Even if we did find them, who knows how long it would take. Furthermore, each and every one of those array masters are extremely arrogant, the price for asking them to help is much greater than the reward for killing one or two Sirius Gate cultivators, it’s not worth it! ”

Wang Zong chuckled and said, “Array master isn’t as good as you, Little Yang. A genius like you, it’s not impossible to find a few that are stronger than you, but to find an array master, hehe …”

Yang Junshan looked at Wang Zong strangely, he did not know why he was being so hostile towards him, but he did not put Wang Zong in his eyes, and said straightforwardly: Leave the setting up of the array to me, at that time, all you need to do is buy time for me. Oh, right, Senior Brother Liu, do you want to wait for Luo Bingkun to come back and we can move?

The faces of the members of the group, including Liu Zhifei, were all filled with surprise. After hearing Yang Junshan’s question, Liu Zhifei finally came back to his senses with a “Ah,” and said: “Of course we have to wait for Luo Bingkun to return to the team. No, I mean, Little Yang, Brother Yang, what did you just say? Leave the matter of setting up the formation to you? You, could you be an array master? ”

Ning Ran was also surprised, “Brother Yang, you’re actually an array master? You didn’t lie to us right? You can’t joke about this! ”

“I understand!”

At this time, Zhuang Guangyu suddenly jumped up, and said: “There was news long ago that the Xishan Village’s village protection formation was laid by the Xishan Village’s own array master, we did not believe it, but we never expected that it was true, and the array master, is most likely you, Xiao Yang?”

At this time, Qi Zhou also said, “I’ve heard that there’s an array master in Xishan Village. I originally thought that this newly merged village was just bluffing, but who would’ve thought that it’s true!”

Wang Zong’s face was completely red, it was a good thing that everyone was looking at Yang Junshan happily, as though they had just met him, and did not care about him at all. They could not help but mutter to themselves: “Who knows, when the time comes, he might not be able to set up the array.”
