Chapter 289: Suddenly Enlightened

Qin Guan's face became very difficult: "How many casualties?" What he cared about was the casualties of the low-level monks, and what he cared about was also the confidence of the monks in whether the Cultivator Federation could still guarantee their peace.

Yusu lowered his head and whispered, "About thirty people died on the spot, and hundreds more were injured. ”

Don't look at the number of people he said, for the Lingshan Thousand Islands, which is now close to 20 million monks, it is not even one in 10,000, but the consequences are not light. You must know that those monks who have just come to Lingshan are already undecided, if this news spreads and causes most people to start panicking, then the Lingshan Cultivation Federation will face a huge crisis, and it may fall apart. After all, a thousand miles of embankment collapses in an anthill, and some slight cracks can break a strong embankment, and the Lingshan Thousand Islands are now just a collection temporarily united by the turmoil in the outside world, and any disturbance is likely to cause serious consequences.

Qin Guan said solemnly: "Everyone, it seems that it is time for us to tighten our guard everywhere in the Thousand Islands. The measures to detect the secret spies of Lingyin Building should also be strengthened in the future. ”

The rest of the Yuanying Cultivators nodded one after another, agreeing with Qin Guan's words, now is not a stable time, and they can deal with it slowly. Now it has reached a very urgent moment, if the Lingying faction attacks the Chongxu Gate again, then for the Lingshan Thousand Islands, it will basically indicate a way to defeat.

Just when Qin Guan and the others were deploying strict prevention and control measures, on a hidden desert island in the Thousand Islands Great Array, a group of monks dressed in various clothes were sitting in a group, resting with tired faces.

One of the monks dressed in a brown short beat said, "I said, boss, are we so tired, can the Cultivators still be able to find us with their breath?" He was complaining that the leader had taken them from the place of attack through the entire Thousand Islands Great Array to another stronghold, and there was no chance to rest along the way, even though two of them were early Yuan Infant monks, who were almost too tired to speak.

A curly-haired young man sitting at the innermost sip took a sip of saliva and said, "Phew! Do you think Lao Tzu is willing to be so tired! If it weren't for the fact that the people of the Cultivation Union have too many means, and we are like fish in a net in this Raushzi Thousand Islands Array, who would want to spend so much spiritual power on the road." And if I hadn't taken you lazy people, I would have run away with the second and third children, where would I have spent so much spiritual power. ”

These people are the bandits who have just attacked a spiritual place in the Thousand Islands Great Array, because there are prohibitions planted by Lingyin Tower in the dantian, so they have to follow the order of Lingyin Tower to make trouble in Lingshan Thousand Islands. However, they were originally a nest of pirates roaming the North Sea, and they usually did a lot of robbing houses, but they have never been so exciting as this one.

Speaking of excitement, it is because in the past, they plundered ships on the sea, relying on strong strength, as well as their own caution, super forces and ships of various sects, they did not commit any crimes, but for small merchants or casual cultivators, they were extremely cruel, not only to rob the goods, but also to leave no human life. Therefore, the monks of Beihai openly call them autumn wind thieves, which means that they will leave nothing behind like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves. And these thieves are still shamelessly proud of this, and they really wandered in the Beihai in the name of the autumn wind thieves, making a great reputation.

The leader of the Autumn Wind Thieves is called Zong Qing, a hooligan ruffian from a background, who by mistake worshipped a Buddhist traitor who was expelled from the Buddhist Sect as a teacher, and learned the physical cultivation method of the Buddhist Sect from a young age. And he is indeed a very intelligent person, and his cultivation qualifications are also excellent, and in just a few decades, he has been promoted to the foundation building consummation, and stands proudly in a small place of life at the age of 100.

But he was not complacent, and after cultivating Xiaocheng, he gathered a group of younger brothers and began to rob the house, and in just a few years, he harmed an unknown number of people. The Jindan monk in the sect couldn't see it, and after punishing him, he fled with his younger brother and began to rob passing ships in the North Sea.

Originally, with his strength, he would not suffer any harm because of the turmoil in the Beihai cultivation world, but he broke through the Lingyin Tower's deeds in a robbery without opening his eyes, and was caught by the monks of the Lingyin Tower, planting a ban. From then on, his every move had to be under the command of Ling Yinlou.

Over the years, he has attacked various small sects under the command of Lingyinlou, although there are many casualties among the people under his command, but his power has been expanding, Lingyinlou can always send a lot of monks for him to dispatch when he is seriously injured, so that he is also addicted to the boss.

Maybe Wang Ba saw the mung bean right eye, and although Zong Qing also had a complaint about the ban planted by Lingyin Tower, he was more grateful to Lingyin Building for giving him such an opportunity to display his ambitions.

That's right, since he was a teenager, he really wanted to be a free and easy Jiangyang thief, and now that he has embarked on the path of cultivation, his bloodthirsty nature has not changed at all, but has become more exposed as his cultivation continues to improve.

Don't look at his appearance is very delicate, he looks like a weak scholar, but his ruthlessness towards people is unimaginable to ordinary people. And he tortured the captives in his hands, which was even more unbearable to look at, and it was common to open the intestines and stomachs, and sometimes he would even take pleasure in feeding the beasts of the sea with living people.

Therefore, Zong Qing's subordinates were very afraid of him, not only because Zong Qing's cultivation had reached the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, but also because Lingyin Lou also gave him a part of the power to control the prohibitions in his dantian, which allowed him to clamp down on all his subordinates.

After venting, the curly-haired young man Zong Qing looked at the two young people who looked exactly the same next and said, "Second and third, you two tell us what to do next." ”

These twins are the other two leaders under Zong Qing in the Autumn Wind Thieves, who are only one level lower than Zong Qing in cultivation, and they are also the villains that Lingyin Lou looted from the Beihai.

And these two young people look much more ordinary than Zong Qing. If Zong Qing's face is a little white face, then these two young people are extremely ordinary, they belong to the kind that will not be noticed on the street, and no one will pay special attention to them at all.

But everyone in the Autumn Wind Thief knew that these two people looked ordinary, but even Zong Qing had to take some hand to resist the technique of one-handed joint attack. Similar to the three brothers of the Shen family in the Sanqing Palace, the combined attack technique of these two people also relies on the spirit and rhino communication, saving the time for various reactions, so it is very sharp, and the cultivation of these two people is also at the same level, and the score is not bad, so the power of the combined attack is enough to compare with Zong Qing in the middle of the Yuan Infant.

Moreover, not only are the means sharp, but the brains of the two people are also easy to use, not as bloodthirsty and murderous as Zong Qing, these two people are good at using their brains, and the people who give advice in the Autumn Wind Thief are the two of them.

Among the twins, the elder brother is called Jiang Wen, and the younger brother is called Jiang Wu, the two of them glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Hide for a while." ”

Zong Qing didn't ask why, so he issued an order to rest in place. He trusted these two people very much, because he knew that these two people were different from his Zongqing, they were people sent by Lingyinlou, and they had been trained by Lingyinlou since they were children, so they naturally knew some strategic knowledge.

To say that the Jiang Wen and Jiang Wu brothers actually look down on Zong Qing's gang in their hearts, so naturally they rarely communicate with anyone other than Zong Qing, and even let Zong Qing say it himself when he conveys orders, and the two of them can only make suggestions. And Zong Qing is naturally happy that these two people don't fight for power with him, otherwise he won't even have the power to command, so what's the point of leading so many people.

And the twins came to Zong Qing's side, in fact, it is also the meaning of Lingyin Building, the altar master of the Beihai General Altar still trusts Zong Qing's ability, but he is not at ease with his ability to command, so he sent two people who have been trained since childhood to send Zong Qing as a think tank.

And the task given to them by Lingyinlou this time is to do everything possible to make Lingshan Thousand Islands chaotic, and it is best to break them apart and create contradictions between monks. And Zong Qing and the others also felt that this matter was very easy to handle, the twins had already clearly learned from the secret spies who were ambushed in Lingshan Thousand Islands in Lingyin Tower, and the Xiulian was now a large dye vat, and everyone had different thoughts, completely relying on the original four million monks to consciously maintain order, but they were about to lose their breath. After all, there are too many people now, and a little wind and grass can make people alert, and the appearance of the wind is really the best time for them to make a move.

Relying on the help of secret spies, the Autumn Wind Thieves and their gang infiltrated the Thousand Islands of Lingshan, and spent half a day choosing one of the poorly defended spiritual lands, and made a decisive move, causing dozens of people to die on the spot. If it weren't for the fear that someone would besiege them in the future, they might have wanted to kill them on the island.

And Qin Guan's side, with eight Yuanying monks, came to the attacked spiritual land to check. This spiritual place is called Zangao Island, which is named because of the abundance of Lingao. And the people who live on Zangao Island are all casual cultivators, and there are no monks who have cultivated to a particularly high level. Therefore, after being attacked by the Autumn Wind Thief, he had no power to resist at all, and he suffered heavy casualties at once. Originally, there were only tens of thousands of people living on such an island, and at that time, the autumn wind thieves attacked with great fanfare, and the people who rushed up were all living in this place and cultivating relatively advanced loose cultivators, most of them were monks who had completed the Jindan, and they were here to cultivate and look for the opportunity to become a baby. But he didn't expect that the Autumn Wind Thief just attacked in one wave, and nearly a hundred Jindan monks were wiped out, and more than 30 people in front of the team died on the spot, and dozens of people behind were seriously injured, and some of them were seriously injured.

Qin Guan then also visited the injured Jindan monks, and specially instructed the alchemists who went down to the Sword Pavilion to step up treatment to prevent these injured from dying. Then he went to the place where the battle took place to check, glanced around, and didn't find anything special, but the original scripture who followed him suddenly whispered "Huh", Qin Guan turned around and asked, "What did Brother Yuan find?"

Yuan Jing frowned, looked at a long scorch mark under his feet, touched his chin and thought for a moment: "I seem to have seen this kind of mark before." ”

Qin Guan squatted down and touched the scorch mark with his hand, and found that even though two hours had passed, the scorch mark was still very hot, no wonder the surrounding trees were a little dry.

"Brother Yuan, you said you had ever seen this kind of trace?"

Yuan Jing nodded: "I used to travel around Beihai, more than a hundred years ago, I was still a Jindan consummation realm of loose cultivators, living on a small island in the southeast, the island is inaccessible, only three or five people live with me who generally like pure loose cultivators. But then one day, a small boat suddenly floated from the sea, and the people on board had already been killed and wounded, leaving only an old man with a dying breath. When I got on the boat, the old man left a phrase 'Autumn Wind Thief' and died. And there was such a trace on the ship at that time. ”

Then he touched the back of his head again: "The reason why I remember it so clearly is because that ship is clearly a small sect's cross-sea tool, which is a rare magic weapon, but that scorch mark caused serious damage to the magic weapon with just one blow, and it was impossible to use at all." I think, and that's why all the people on the ship will be killed. ”

Qin Guan had never heard of the name of "Autumn Wind Thief", so naturally he didn't know what was going on. But this did not prevent him from thinking, and through speculation, he could conclude that this autumn wind thief was probably the culprit who attacked the ship and this Zangao Island.

The Yuanying monks present naturally didn't pay much attention to the bandits who robbed houses, so they didn't know the name of the Autumn Wind Thief. But Qin Guan just found a casual cultivator and asked, and he knew the name of the Autumn Wind Thief.

"I didn't expect that it was actually a group of pirates who robbed houses, why did they appear in Lingshan Thousand Islands? And it seems that they didn't take anything valuable, so why should they be thankless?" Qin Guan thought excitedly.

A beautiful woman walked out from behind him, it was Chun Yuxia. Chun Yuxia put his hand on Qin Guan's shoulder and asked, "What is it that makes you think so distractedly?"

Qin Guan came to his senses and shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that a group of pirates suddenly appeared in the Thousand Islands of Lingshan, and it is said that they are still quite famous pirates in the North Sea." However, this group of people usually shoots at ships on the sea, and I don't know why they chose a spiritual place in the Thousand Islands of Lingshan this time. And the gang didn't take anything, they just killed people. It's weird. ”

Chun Yuxia blinked his eyes and blurted out: "This group of people is not for money, they are coming for our Lingshan Cultivation Alliance?"

Qin Guan was stunned, his thinking fell into a misunderstanding, he was frightened by the notoriety of this group of people in Beihai, and he had been thinking in the direction of robbing the house, but he didn't expect that this group of people might be coming for the Lingshan Cultivation Alliance. And those who will make a move on the Lingshan Cultivation Alliance, and still have the ability, there is only one Lingyin Building in Beihai.
