The next few days were quite calm, after the siege of Peach Willow City and the retreat of the Jason Kingdom, the turmoil has gradually subsided, and the entire city has returned to its former prosperity.

In the past few days, Chen Ning has been staying in the Cao family to cultivate and has never gone out.

The only exception is the three middle-aged men of Yun Shengzong, who have come to Cao's house from time to time to find Chen Ning these days, chatting with Chen Ning casually about some topics, although they will come at least once a day, but they only mention about the fourth-order demon core.

As the time spent with the three Yunsheng Sect people increased, the relationship between Chen Ning and them also unconsciously narrowed a little.

And Chen Ning also heard something from the three of them that was too much about the Huang family, but what made him feel at ease was that the Huang family currently only had a half-step Xuan King.

And it was only a breakthrough ten years ago, and the cultivation talent was not very prominent, and now it should be between the second or third turns, and the threat to Chen Ning is not very big.

While cultivating, Chen Ning also sent several people from the Black Panther Mercenary Group to the vicinity of the Huang family, paying close attention to whether the Huang family had any big moves, and he did not have the slightest sloppiness in this matter.

In the past few days, he has devoted himself to cultivation, and Chen Ning's strength is also increasing at a terrifying speed, after consuming a large number of Xuanshi and demon cores, his strength is now approaching that of a middle-level Great Xuanshi.

In the evening, a shirtless young man ran into Cao's house from the outside, and without stopping along the way, he hurriedly entered the independent courtyard where Chen Ning lived.

"Tell the head of the regiment, our spies came to report this morning and found that the Huang family had signs of a large group of people moving a few days ago, and it seems that they were coming for our Black Panther mercenary group. ”

The Black Panther mercenary group said a little out of breath.

Chen Ning sat cross-legged on the bed, still maintaining a cultivation posture, his eyes slowly opened, his gaze calmly looked at the closed door, a fine light flashed in his eyes, as if he could break through the door and directly see the appearance of the person outside the door.

"How many men and horses they have, and when they will arrive. ”

"Tell the head of the regiment, the spies have come to report, they have about three hundred people, because there are a lot of people, so the journey is slow, if they rush overnight, their subordinates will not be able to arrive here until noon tomorrow. The mercenary stood at the door and said in a respectful tone.

Hearing the mercenary's words, Chen Ning replied with an expressionless face, "You go down." ”

After the mercenary left, Chen Ning sat cross-legged on the bed and bowed his head for a while, muttering to himself, "With the current strength of the mercenary group and the Huang family, it is undoubtedly an egg to hit the stone, rather than sit and wait for death, it is better to take the initiative to attack, take advantage of the approaching night, ambush them on the road to give them a heavy blow." ”

After a stick of incense, under Chen Ning's order, the seven Great Xuanshi of the Black Panther Mercenary Regiment rode the first-order demon beast mount with him and left Peach Willow City.

However, when Chen Ning and the others had just left the city gate less than a kilometer away, they were stopped by three people wearing strong suits and riding demon beast mounts.

These people are none other than Du Yun, Du Fei, and Du Mu of Yunshengzong.

"Hehe, Brother Chen Ning, I don't know where you are going when the night comes. Du Yun, who was riding on the demon beast mount, looked at Chen Ning with a smile on his face.

Chen Ning arched his hand and said with a smile, "It turned out to be Du Yun's three brothers, we must have something to do when we go out so late." ”

Du Yun smiled and said, "If my guess is correct, Brother Chen Ning should be going to deal with the Huang family on this trip." ”

Chen Ning nodded and did not deny it.

Seeing Chen Ning admit directly, Du Yun's face suddenly became a little serious.

Taking a deep breath, he continued, "Brother Chen Ning, it's not that I, Du Yun, underestimate you, as far as I know, this time the Huang family has dispatched more than a dozen masters of the Great Xuan Master, and there are hundreds of elite disciples who all have the strength of the Xuan Master, and even the old master of the Huang family has come in person, with the eight of you, do you think you can beat them?"

Hearing this, Chen Ning frowned slightly, the Huang family's lineup was indeed a little unexpected to him.

Du Yun looked at Chen Ning with a smile on his face and continued, "Although it is very difficult for the few of you to win against the Huang family, if the three of us join, it will be much easier, I wonder if Brother Chen Ning is willing to take us with us?"

Hearing Du Yun's words, Chen Ning was stunned, and then smiled lightly, "If Brother Du Yun is willing to help me, Chen Ning will naturally be grateful, but..." ”

"Hehe, Brother Chen Ning, don't you know, although our Yun Shengzong is far away from the Huang family, but in previous years, there were still some conflicts in some interests, resulting in some contradictions, and recently our Yun Shengzong also has a few disciples who went out to disappear for no reason, we guess that most of it was done by the Huang family, but we can't find accurate evidence, for the Huang family, if we Yun Shengzong didn't have scruples about losing both, we would have wanted to destroy them a long time ago, and now since the Chen Ning brothers want to find the Huang family's bad luck, then the three of us should help you。 ”

Du Yun said in a light tone, with a look of schadenfreude on his face.

"Okay, since that's the case, then Chen Ning is here to thank the three of them for their help. ”

Chen Ning was overjoyed, he didn't expect Yun Shengzong to have such a relationship with the Huang family, with the addition of Du Yun and the others, the difficulty of his trip would undoubtedly be reduced a lot.

Immediately, Chen Ning and Yun Shengzong's Du Yun didn't talk much, and they all rode the demon beast at full speed in one direction with their own goals.

At this moment, it was already late at night, the sky was dark, and the sky was full of dark clouds, completely covering the garden and moon that were originally hanging high in the sky.

In the thick dark clouds, there were bursts of thunder resounding in the sky from time to time.

In a clearing three hundred away from Taoliu City, hundreds of tents were scattered around, and more than a dozen fires were burning slowly, and the bright firelight was dancing like a dance, shining brightly illuminating everything around.

And in the middle of the whole camp, a flag was planted high, and the wind howled to blow it, and by the light of the fire, a big "yellow" word could be faintly seen written on it.

At the moment, most of the people in this camp were cultivating and sleeping, and it seemed quite quiet, only a few people in charge of patrolling were shuttling through the tents, and from time to time adding some wood to the fire.

"Boom!"

A dull thunderclap suddenly exploded from the air, very loud and deafening, and the flash of lightning swept across the sky, illuminating the whole night as if it were day.

Immediately afterwards, a downpour poured down from the sky, and the bean-sized rain soon extinguished the burning fire.

For a moment, the entire camp was completely plunged into darkness, and the bean-sized rain dripped densely on the ground, making a loud noise.

"Damn, I had such a ghostly encounter. ”

Several patrol officers cursed and climbed into the tent to take shelter from the rain.

Five hundred meters away from the camp, several figures were like ghosts, marching forward in the dark night in the rain, and the loud sound of the rain lapping on the ground completely obscured the movement caused by the movement of several of them.

These people were Chen Ning and his party who set off from Taoliu City in the evening.

When they were less than two hundred meters away from the Huang family's camp, Chen Ning and the others paused slightly, and they all gathered together, as if they were discussing something with each other.

After a short moment, I saw a figure sneaking in the direction of the camp alone and cautiously, while the rest of the people were waiting in place.

This figure who infiltrated the Huang family's camp alone was Chen Ning.

Chen Ning came to a tent on the outermost part and paused slightly, then carefully opened the curtain and sneaked in, the tent was pitch black, and he couldn't see half of the figure clearly.

However, Chen Ning could still clearly sense that there were three people sleeping in the tent with the help of his divine sense.

He didn't hesitate for a moment, the Purple Frost Sword instantly appeared in his right hand, stabbed out three swords in an instant, and then immediately lifted it out without looking back.

Chen Ning was very confident in his swordsmanship, and with the three swords just now, he had accurately stabbed into the throats of the three people, ending their lives in an instant.

After eliminating the three members of the Huang family without making any sound, Chen Ning continued to cautiously approach the rest of the tents, letting the bean-sized raindrops lap on his body, his clothes were already soaked, and the rain was constantly dripping all over his body.

Originally, Chen Ning planned to fight with the people of the Huang family, but this sudden heavy rain made him immediately change his way of action.

If you can hunt and kill some people of the Huang family by means of assassination before the war, then you can greatly weaken the strength of the Huang family, if you can assassinate the old master of the Huang family, who has reached the half-step Xuan King, then these people really have no threat to Chen Ning.

However, in the face of a half-step Xuan King, Chen Ning was still not sure that he would be able to kill with one hit, if the assassination failed, then this God-given opportunity might be lost.

Therefore, Chen Ning now only wants to clean up some small characters first, so as to weaken the overall strength of the Huang family to the greatest extent.

Although Chen Ning was not good at the means of assassination, at this moment, because the pouring rain and night completely covered the movement of Chen Ning's actions, no one noticed him.

In just one stick of incense, Chen Ning has killed more than 100 people by assassination, accounting for one-third of the total number of people here.

When the time of one stick of incense passed again, the number of people who died in Chen Ning's hands was already close to two hundred.

Now, among the more than 100 tents around, more than half of them have been completely stained red with blood, and a lot of blood has flowed out of the tents in the passage of time, and then slowly spread in all directions along the rain, and a faint smell of blood wafted throughout the camp.

And just as the smell of blood wafted away, in a huge tent, the old head of the Huang family was sitting cross-legged on a group of putons and cultivating with his eyes closed, his whole body did not move, as if it was a stone sculpture.

At this moment, the old head of the Huang family's nose twitched slightly, and then the closed eyes suddenly opened, and two essences flashed from their eyes.

The old master sucked in the air fiercely, frowned slightly, and muttered, "Strange, how can there be a faint smell of blood." ”

As soon as the words fell, the ears of the old head of the Huang family moved slightly, and then he seemed to notice something, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately shouted, "Everyone wake me up, someone is attacking the camp." ”

Before the words fell, the old head of the Huang family had already disappeared into the tent.

Outside the tent, all the people who were still alive were awakened by this loud shout, and then they quickly rushed out of the tent regardless of the heavy rain outside.

Seeing that his whereabouts were exposed, Chen Ning no longer concealed it, and directly held the Purple Frost Sword and immediately killed the people closest to him, just trying to kill some more people in the shortest possible time.

As soon as Chen Ning made a move, he struck with all his strength, and the Purple Frost Sword turned into a sword shadow in the dark night, instantly enveloping several Huang family disciples and piercing the throats of several people.

The old head of the Huang family also discovered Chen Ning, and when he shouted angrily, he rushed towards Chen Ning with a machete in his right hand.

At the same time, two hundred away, the seven Great Xuan Masters of the Black Panther Mercenary Regiment and the three Du Yun who were with them also rushed over quickly when they saw that Chen Ning's whereabouts were exposed.

The Purple Frost Sword in Chen Ning's hand exuded a layer of hazy purple sword light, which was so distinct in the dark night, and a trace of strong and sharp sword qi emanated, so that anyone who was closer to Chen Ning could clearly feel the fierce sword aura on the Purple Frost Sword.

Now, the children of the Huang family in the entire camp had discovered Chen Ning and rushed in his direction.

Chen Ning held the Purple Frost Sword, avoided the attack of the old master of the Huang family, and directly drilled into the crowd to kill, and in just a moment, another person with the strength of more than ten meters of Xuanshi died under his sword.

Under the lightning-fast speed of the Purple Frost Sword, even the Great Xuanshi had to be careful to dodge, and these children of the Huang family, who only had the strength of the Xuanshi, were almost powerless in the face of Chen Ning's fast sword, and anyone who had his throat cut was already dead before he could even scream.
