Sovereign to Immortality

Chapter 254 – Behind

After the reorganization of the third team, they were quickly added into the disturbance of Lin Zhang County under Liu Zhifei’s guidance, but because Luo Bingkun was heavily injured again and Ning Ran’s injuries had not recovered, the number of members in the battle against the third team was only eight, the old man only had Liu Zhifei and Yang Junshan.

This time, after the recombination of third team, out of the ten people, only one was in the third and fourth stage of martial arts realm, but five were in the second stage. Compared to last time, the ones in the third stage and the ones in the first stage were one less, and the ones in the second stage were two more.

However, after the party was reorganized, it had to do with the status of the members in the group. When Yang Junshan had first joined the team, this had happened before, but at that time, Liu Zhifei, Xiong Xiyi and the others were all seniors with cultivations that far surpassed the other members, so naturally no one would challenge them.

As for the others, Yang Junshan had been hiding his strength at the time, and was the youngest, so he took the initiative to take the last spot, while Luo Bingkun had the upper hand in the competition with Wang Zong because he had a magical equipment.

This time, Liu Zhifei and Ning Ran’s position would naturally not be challenged, but the other people, especially the five Muddy Qi cultivators, had to be aigh and low level.

Hence, after knowing each other, there were people who impatiently jumped out to provoke Yang Junshan, especially when both Ning Ran and Luo Bingkun were injured. After Liu Zhifei told the new arrivals to ask Yang Junshan for guidance, the gazes they used to look at Yang Junshan with were filled with suspicion, because he looked too young, and was not a descendant of some prestigious clan, so everyone couldn’t help but feel that he was a little too young.

The first person who spoke out to provoke them was called Sha Zhi Hong, a disciple of the’s Prominent Class Sha Family. He was also a second stage Muddy Qi Cultivator, so he naturally did not fancy Yang Junshan, a little cultivator from a small village.

Seeing that Yang Junshan was provoked, Ning Ran and Luo Bingkun both had a look of schadenfreude, but Yang Junshan had no choice. He could only lay down the array flag of the trench array, and trap Sha Zhihong inside. Although he had tried to sneak attack Yang Junshan at the beginning, Yang Junshan revealing his identity as the array master was enough to make the new teammates revere him.

In truth, putting aside his identity as an array master, Yang Junshan was confident that he had enough strength to subdue a few of his new teammates. However, that would inevitably be too extreme, and since Yang Junshan himself did not want to waste his energy on bravery, he revealed his identity as an array master to let everyone know that he was in a difficult situation.

Although third team was quickly involved in the assault on Ling Zhang County, Liu Zhifei did not lose his mind because of revenge. third team had mostly helped the other teams during the conflict, and most of his focus was on nurturing and familiarizing himself with each other.

As time passed, the conflict between Mengyu County and the border of Ling Zhang County became more and more intense, both sides’ deaths and injuries became more and more serious, and the battle achievements that were spread amongst the cultivators guarding the borders of Mengyu County were also being refreshed several times. However, the Ling Zhang County was clearly at a disadvantage when fighting against the Mengyu County by himself.

On this day, the third team who had returned to their stronghold from the border had reunited with Ning Ran and Luo Bingkun, who had returned with injuries. However, the fifth and seventh squads, which they had not seen for a long time, also returned as well.

At first, Yang Junshan thought it was just a coincidence, but after the three squads gathered, the three of them immediately gathered in the secret room to discuss, causing Yang Junshan to immediately understand that the three of them probably came back together after receiving the order.

“Hey, little Yang, I heard that you guys suffered greatly this time?”

Yang Junshan turned around and recognized the person who was talking to him was a member of the Seventh Squad, called Mu Jie. As the two of them were both from Wasteland Town, they had a good relationship with each other.

This guy usually had a lot of ideas. Although his cultivation was only at the second stage, he was used to performing and being able to speak well in Squad Seven. The squadron’s main character, Ji Chenglin, usually asked for his opinion.

“Sigh.” Yang Junshan sighed, and said: “Five of them died. It is said that Xiong Xiyi was kidnapped by Fei Xiu, and I was lucky enough to return home that day, if not … The entire third team is considered crippled, now that there are new people, it can be considered a reorganization. ”

Mu Jie patted his shoulder, and said: “Being able to live is good enough. It’s said that the third team either died or fled, why did they have to abduct that Xiong Xiyi?”

Yang Junshan shook his head: “Who knows, maybe he just took the opportunity to steal a beauty!”

Mu Jie smacked his lips, and said: “No, there was another woman in your squad earlier, what’s she called Fang? She was also a jade-like beauty of my family, and her cultivation is only at the first stage, wouldn’t it be easier to rape her, why did she have to capture this Xiong Xiyi? That guy has a cold face, but she’s not weak at all. How much strength would it take to capture her? ”

Yang Junshan said snappily: “How would I know? I’m not even the Sirius Gate’s Fei Xiu!”

“Interesting, this is interesting. Don’t you think this is a little interesting?” Mu Jie shook his head as if he was holding ontreasure of wisdom.

Yang Junshan rolled his eyes at him, and said: “What’s the point of this? I see that you have too many thoughts, if there’s no meaning, you’ll be able to see through it.”

Mu Jie let out a “heh”, and looked at Yang Junshan who looked like a summer bug that couldn’t speak words.

Yang Junshan could not be bothered with him, but his expression suddenly changed, as though he had thought of something, and asked: “That’s not right, the matter of the third team attack is already known to everyone, all the Sirius Gate cultivators at the border with him have already died, Brother Mu why do you look like you just found out, did you not follow the convoy?”

Mu Jie smiled. “Naturally, it’s to accompany the team.”

“Then why …”

Mu Jie was stunned, then he laughed twice and stopped speaking.

Yang Junshan looked around him without leaving a trace, and said in a low voice: “What, Brother Mu, your fifth team hasn’t participated in the war at the border during this time, could it be that you went on a secret mission?”

Mu Jie hesitated for a moment before he shook his head. Then, he nodded his head. However, he remained silent.

Yang Junshan saw his cautious look, and could not help but look down on him: “Brother Mu, what are you shaking your head and nodding your head, why are you even taking liberties with me, your brother?”

Mu Jie, who had been pressured by Yang Junshan’s words, spoke out instinctively, “It’s not that I’m trying to bully you, it’s just that the situation is too serious and the team has given the order to keep their mouths shut.”

Yang Junshan laughed coldly, “Why can’t we say anything? The fifth and seventh squads haven’t seen each other in a few days. Since their whereabouts are to be kept a secret, then they have naturally gone to the Ling Zhang County or the Huyao County …”

Mu Jie immediately extended his hand to cover Yang Junshan’s mouth as he looked around to see if anyone had noticed them.

Yang Junshan said excitedly: “No way, you really made the right decision. You guys have also infiltrated into the other party’s territory, could it be that you guys are going to fight with Sirius Gate Fei Xiu to rob the caravans that are passing through the other party’s territory?”

Mu Jie originally wanted to ask Yang Junshan how he obtained sucop secret information, but upon hearing that Yang Junshan was only guessing randomly, his anxious actions actually proved his guess. Mu Jie couldn’t help but swallow his question back, and said instead: “I didn’t say anything, you guessed it yourself.”

Yang Junshan was still unrelenting as he asked: “Brother Mu, have you gone to Huyao County or Ling Zhang County? You stole a few caravans, how many benefits have you gotten?

Mu Jie hurriedly tried to leave, but as he walked, he said, “The three teams have already left the secret room. I believe they will be gathering everyone for a new mission soon. I’ll be leaving first.”

Seeing Mu Jie’s hastily leaving figure, the corner of Yang Junshan’s mouth curved into a smile. With such a self-righteous yet truly intelligent fellow, if the matter of Xiong Xiyi being kidnapped were to spread out to him, then there was no guarantee that she would be able to understand what kind of secret. As long as she was not acting on his own, Yang Junshan would naturally not mind giving Xiong Family some potions.

As for the reason why Yang Junshan was able to guess the whereabouts of the fifth group, it was naturally because after the three counties field Market opened, all three parties had done the same thing to each other. However, all three parties were extremely careful and didn’t leave any traces for the other party to find out.

In this life, perhaps it was because of Yang Junshan’s influence, but Sirius Gate’s Fei Xiu was caught red-handed, while the cultivators that were secretly dispatched by Heaven-Shaken Sect and Heaven-Shaken Sect’s side did not reveal their identities.

However, what surprised Yang Junshan was that the three squads of cultivators had gathered together, and not just the three squads coming back to arrange their own missions. Yang Junshan thought to himself, there would probably be a joint operation between the three squads soon.

As expected, after the three groups of cultivators had gathered, Liu Zhifei said in a deep voice: “All cultivators are not allowed to go out from now on. In half a day, the third, fifth, and seventh squads will join forces.

There was a slight disturbance in the crowd, but soon after, it calmed down. The three small groups stationed at the foothold had a total of thirty Martial Realm Cultivator s who had seen life and death before. This kind of event naturally did not disturb their minds, and from start to finish, no one asked about the purpose of this joint operation.

Around midnight, the three groups of cultivators had finished gathering. Under the leadership of the three teams, they took advantage of the quiet moonlight to head out from the foothold and head towards the southwest.

As the sky slowly brightened, the three groups of cultivators passed through a small hill at the border and entered the territory of Huyao County that was controlled by the Opening Spirit School.

“How did we get here again?”

Mu Jie, who was running with Yang Junshan, suddenly blurted out those words, but when he realized it, he immediately reacted to Yang Junshan’s expression. He saw that Yang Junshan’s face was gloomy, and his gaze was constantly on something at the low hills that were all behind him, obviously not paying attention to what he had said earlier.

After passing through the hills, the terrain quickly became steep and became harder and harder to walk on. Although everyone had the urgent talisman, they still had to put some energy into carefully moving through. Not everyone had the ability to control their Qi to soar into the sky.
