Gou Zai Sect Beast Taming Longevity
Chapter 663 Seeking Help in a Time of Crisis
Manager Qiao waved his hand casually, indicating that he didn't care.
These things, on the contrary, were not what he cared about most.
Before Yu Changsheng could even leave Sanling Town, he informed the others of the news.
He received the message jade slip from Li Muling, and upon opening it, Yu Changsheng couldn't help but frown.
"This Li Muling actually came to me for help. It seems he's really at his wit's end."
Yu Changsheng knew that Li Muling's letter only confirmed his suspicions.
It must be because Xuan Yuan Hai and Wang Hai Tang were unwilling to lend a hand that Li Mu Ling had no choice but to turn to Yu Chang Sheng for help.
What Li Muling didn't know was that the previous incident was actually caused by Yu Changsheng himself.
Now they're begging him for help again. I wonder what Li Muling will think if he finds out.
However, given Li Muling's threats, it was impossible to completely ignore him; otherwise, who knew what desperate things he might do?
After careful consideration, Yu Changsheng decided to personally meet with Li Muling to persuade him.
After much deliberation, Yu Changsheng immediately released a communication jade slip.
The message slip quickly received a response from Li Muling, who instructed him to meet secretly at one of his residences.
This place is a remote mountain village not far from Sanling Town.
It is one of Li Muling's secret residences.
Moreover, this place is quite close to Sanling Town; for a Nascent Soul cultivator, the round trip might not even take two hours.
In this way, even if they encounter any danger, they can easily escape to Sanling Town.
It's clear that Li Muling is genuinely afraid; the pressure from that mysterious expert is simply too great.
Yu Changsheng sneered inwardly. Now they know fear, but when they attacked the Xie family so viciously, why didn't they know fear?
Soon, Yu Changsheng arrived at the entrance of the villa.
There are hardly any cultivators here, only some servants and simple guards.
Upon arriving at the entrance, Yu Changsheng identified himself and was immediately led inside.
Li Muling was sitting in a pavilion outside the villa, looking at the small pond in front of him, seemingly lost in thought.
After Yu Changsheng walked over, he also cupped his hands and said:
"Zhou has met with Clan Chief Li."
Li Muling already knew this and had never been there before, but he didn't get up and casually said, "Sit down."
Yu Changsheng didn't stand on ceremony and went to the other side of the pavilion to find a place to sit down.
Li Muling asked, "How have you considered your previous proposal?"
Yu Changsheng said helplessly, "Clan Chief Li, aren't you making things difficult for me? Even if I had the greatest abilities, I couldn't possibly find the trace of that mysterious expert."
"Even a god couldn't find such a master who has no information about him."
Li Muling didn't care about any of that. What good would it do to take over Sanling Town if this person wasn't eliminated? He was still restless.
"I know you're full of tricks, can't you think of a way?"
"If you help me resolve this situation, I'll get the Li family's full support for your attack on Sanling Town. I mean what I say!"
Yu Changsheng sneered inwardly, "Full support?"
It seems that when that time really comes, these guys will change their minds again.
Besides, he had no idea where the cloaked man was right now.
Of course, finding that person wasn't too difficult for Yu Changsheng.
Once Xie Quanling's location is found, the location of the cloaked man can be almost confirmed.
But how could Yu Changsheng possibly do that and help Li Muling find him?
Putting aside the fact that offending such a powerful expert for the sake of Li Muling is hardly a wise choice.
And more importantly, once the cloaked man actually appears on the day of the attack on Three Spirits Town...
This will inevitably let Li Muling know that he and the cloaked man have some connection.
By then, how could Li Muling not know that he had been tricked?
It's inevitable that both old and new grudges will be settled together, and Yu Changsheng won't be able to handle it.
Therefore, what Yu Changsheng had to do was find a way to stall Li Muling.
Yu Changsheng said, "Clan Chief Li, you overestimate me. I might have some ways to deal with ordinary cultivators."
"But how can I possibly deal with such an unpredictable expert?"
Li Muling said, "That's not my concern. In short, I only have one thing to say: if you help me find that person, I will help you attack Sanling Town."
"If you can't find it, hehe, you should know the consequences."
Yu Changsheng gave a wry smile. He hadn't expected Li Muling to be so unreasonable and so resolute. It seemed that this cloaked man had become a source of anxiety for him.
"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have handed Xie Quanling over to you in the first place, otherwise I would have had a hostage."
Li Muling's face stiffened. How could he possibly know that there was a master behind the Xie family?
"However, to find that person, we need to start with the Xie family."
Li Muling nodded slightly; he shared the same thought.
"Of course I know that, but now the Xie family members have either run away or fled, and there's not a trace of them left. Where are we supposed to find them?"
"Moreover, it's unlikely that an ordinary Xie family disciple could lure out that expert."
Yu Changsheng stroked his chin, then suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said:
"Hiss, now that you mention it, I have an idea."
Li Muling immediately perked up and quickly asked:
"What ideas do you have?"
Yu Changsheng asked, "So, is Xie Mengtian really dead, or did he fake his death?"
Li Muling said, "I also went to see the scene that day. Under the siege of more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators, not even a trace was left."
"Unless Xie Mengtian possesses some extraordinary ability to escape, there is absolutely no way he could survive."
Yu Changsheng said, "However, whether he lives or dies is not that important."
"We can use this person to lure out Xie Quanling. Once Xie Quanling learns that his father is still alive, he will be unable to resist and will surely come to his rescue."
"He even begged that mysterious expert for help."
"Whoever we manage to lure out, we can use this opportunity to find that mysterious master!"
Li Muling slapped his thigh and nodded repeatedly.
"That's a good idea!"
Li Muling looked at Yu Changsheng, patted him on the shoulder and said:
"You little rascal, you didn't know what to do, did you? Well, you've come up with a solution, haven't you? I have to say, with you here, I can save myself some trouble."
"Will you be interested in working for me from now on?"
Yu Changsheng smiled wryly and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Clan Chief Li. But I don't have time to think about anything else until I resolve the issue of Sanling Town."
Li Muling knew that Yu Changsheng still wanted him to attack Sanling Town first, which wasn't unreasonable.
"Very well, we can continue our detailed discussion after we take Sanling Town."
Yu Changsheng also breathed a slight sigh of relief. Li Muling did not insist further, otherwise he would not have been able to refuse.
"Clan Chief Li, if we're going to do this, we must do it convincingly. The Li family must also put on a show that we are truly going to besiege Xie Mengtian."
"We can first release information about Xie Mengtian, then have all the experts from the Li family lie in ambush at one point. Then we can stage a scene to put the fake Xie Mengtian into a tough fight, and then..."
Li Muling nodded repeatedly and immediately said he would do as Yu Changsheng said.
"Oh, and there's one more crucial point: if we attract that mysterious cultivator, is Clan Chief Li confident in his ability to handle him?"
Li Muling fell silent; this was indeed a problem.
However, Li Muling quickly and resolutely said again:
"As long as the formation is set up in advance, there will be no problem! That expert's aura is indeed powerful, but I confronted him that day, so he could not possibly be a Void Refining God Venerable. At most, he could only be at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage."
"With the grand formation and multiple Nascent Soul cultivators, killing him shouldn't be difficult!"
"This time, I'm determined to wipe out the Xie family completely!"
Yu Changsheng left the manor with a gloomy expression.
Although this temporarily stabilized Li Muling, it also made him realize that Li Muling absolutely could not be allowed to live.
Otherwise, the consequences will be dire!
This opportunity presents a perfect chance to eliminate them in one fell swoop.
Originally, Yu Changsheng planned to join forces with Li Muling to deal with the other two major forces.
I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.
Who knew that a mysterious expert would suddenly appear out of nowhere?
This person's appearance also disrupted Yu Changsheng's plans.
This made Li Muling a non-mandatory option.
If we can gain the support of this mysterious expert, it will be far better than Li Muling.
This time, he also wanted to take the opportunity to eliminate Li Muling, so that he would not become a constant worry for him.
Back in the cave, Yu Changsheng immediately began to mobilize manpower. He first sent a message to Elder Wu, asking him to mobilize Nascent Soul cultivators and other experts to come and help.
They also summoned the Du family and the remaining Xie family cultivators to come along.
To ensure everything went perfectly, Yu Changsheng also borrowed Lin Hao's help to obtain a formation from the Third Elder, Chen Pingzhen.
Subsequently, this news was passed on to the mysterious expert and Xie Quanling.
He didn't believe that they could resist such a good opportunity to kill Li Muling.
After finishing all this, Yu Changsheng sat on the table and sighed. The plan had now reached its most critical moment, and he absolutely could not afford to make any mistakes.
Ding Xuan asked, "Sir, are we going to take action?"
Yu Changsheng nodded slightly. He had said he would wait before, but this time, it was time to really take action.
He instructed Li Muling to use all the cultivators of the Li family to put on a show and lure out the mysterious expert, which was actually a diversionary tactic.
This left Li Muling with no time to back out and support Sanling Town.
It's even possible that, just to be on the safe side, Li Muling might borrow some experts from Wang Haitang and Xuan Yuanhai.
This will also relieve some of the pressure on Yu Changsheng.
Once they capture the strategically important town of Sanling, the advantage will be on Yu Changsheng's side.
At that time, whether dealing with the Xie family or the Xuanyuan family, the initiative will be in his hands.
With Sanling Town as their base, even if Li Muling reacts quickly and joins forces with the Xuanyuan family again, they may not be able to pose any threat to them.
"By the way, send a few people to this place to find out what's going on. Report back immediately if there's any movement there."
The place Yu Changsheng mentioned was the place where he and Li Muling had discussed ambushing and killing Xie Mengtian.
Of course, this place is an extremely dangerous location, and it is also particularly suitable as a location for an ambush.
It is surrounded by mountains and forests.
Even if some formations are set up in advance, it is not easy to be discovered.
It was a location that Yu Changsheng and Li Muling had discussed and chosen for a long time.
Two days passed quickly.
During this period, news began to circulate outside Sanling Town that Xie Mengtian had appeared but was being hunted down by the Li and Xuanyuan families.
Then, news came again that Xie Mengtian had fallen into a killing formation set up by the Li family and the Xuanyuan family, and was already a lamb to the slaughter.
The Li family also began mobilizing cultivators to go to this place to prepare to ambush and kill Xie Mengtian.
The news quickly spread throughout the entire island.
However, Yu Changsheng had already informed Xie Quanling and the others about this, letting them know that these were all traps and that they should not fall for them.
The Li family could only remain still and wait for the situation to unfold.
Outside Sanling Town.
As usual, with the passage of time, the number of people coming and going gradually recovered.
However, at that moment, a large number of small black dots suddenly appeared in the distance. At first, everyone thought they were some kind of large caravan.
But when those shady shops got closer, they discovered that a group of cultivators were rapidly approaching.
Soon, the cultivator in charge of cultivation levels issued a signal, reminding everyone of their cultivation levels.
Those outside the city gates tensed up upon seeing this, and many quickly returned to the city.
Everyone held their breath, and the next second, the figures suddenly began to move.
They landed in different locations, yet they contained a hidden pattern.
The person in the lead was Du Xingcai, a Nascent Soul cultivator. She was holding an array plate in her hand, which was naturally the array that Yu Changsheng had come to set up that day.
This formation is an extremely powerful offensive formation.
It requires the support of at least five Nascent Soul cultivators to perform this.
Meanwhile, four Nascent Soul cultivators arrived at Elder Wu's place.
With Du Xingcai added, there are exactly five people.
With the combined efforts of the five people, plus the assistance of more than twenty Purple Mansion cultivators, the formation was quickly completed.
Before long, outside Sanling Town, streaks of strange light gradually formed and drifted in the sky, creating a magnificent sight.
But this vibrant color, exuding extreme danger, instilled an unprecedented fear in everyone in Sanling Town.
The cultivators on the city wall responsible for stopping the attack immediately realized that this was an attack.
The message was immediately sent to the city lord's mansion, and at the same time, someone shouted:
"Activate the defensive formation immediately!"
Soon, a faint golden light appeared in the sky above the entire Sanling Town.
This is a defensive array outside Sanling Town. Once activated, it will consume a huge amount of spirit stones to protect the safety of Sanling Town.
It is strong enough to withstand a full-force attack from a Nascent Soul cultivator for a whole day and night without suffering any damage.
Outside the city, Du Xingcai did not rush to attack, but quietly continued to use the power of the formation.
at the same time.
Inside the city, at the Five Elements Auction House.
Manager Qiao looked up at the thick defensive formation in the sky and muttered to himself:
"I didn't expect it to come so soon."
Manager Qiao looked around and then disguised himself.
He has completely changed his appearance.
If Yu Changsheng can disguise himself, then others can too.
Such a disguise mask, capable of preventing Nascent Soul cultivators from discerning its true nature, is extremely rare, but for Steward Qiao, it was not a difficult task. (End of Chapter)
