Chapter 1303: The Rainforest Siege (Part I)

"You are the master of the West Hall of the 'Canghuan Sect'......" Qi Xueyin remembered, and said with a fixed gaze, "When I was trapped upstairs with the other three people, you were one of the ......"

"That's right, I didn't expect Miss Qi to remember ......" Xiying sneered, followed by hundreds of "Canghuan Sect" disciples who suddenly appeared in the surrounding jungle, and it seemed that they had been ambushed here from the beginning.

"You have an ambush here in advance?——" Qi Xueyin didn't dare to slack off with the "Purple Tooth Knife" in her hand, and asked through gritted teeth in the heavy rain.

"That's right, we heard the news of your return to Kurong Town half a month ago," Xiying said with a sneer...... "In order to lure you out, we deliberately planted some eyeliner in the city to attract your attention, but I didn't expect you to finally take the bait today......"

"It turns out that you knew from the beginning that I was back here, and I had prepared an ambush in advance......" Qi Xueyin heard this, facing the "mountains and fields" surrounding, knowing that he would not be able to give up today, and then smiled coldly and said, "Hmph, for you, am I so hated by you? I want to get rid of me at all costs......"

"When you enter the coffin, you will know the answer-" Xiying was unceremoniously, raised his hand and said coldly, "I let you escape last time, this time you don't want to slip away again!"

"Oh, you're so confident that you can defeat me this time?" Qi Xueyin continued to sneer and asked rhetorically.

"It's not ......," Xiying continued to say coldly, "The last duel in Kurong Town gave you all the advantage, don't think you'll have such good luck this time-"

"If it's luck or not, we'll see under the knife!" Qi Xueyin calmed down, and under the majesty, her temples drooped, revealing a strong and unyielding look.

"Seven-pointed Star Array——" Xiying immediately ordered his subordinates to line up in formation, intending to surround Qi Xueyin.

However, before the words fell, a disciple next to him suddenly ran over, leaned into Xiying's ear and said, "But hall master, didn't Lord Dongxun remind us before, let us send a signal first and then stand by, don't act rashly?"

"There's no need to send a signal, we'll execute her here, there's no need for the East Hall Master to do so-" Xiying seemed a little unhappy when he heard this, and said in a retortive voice.

"But hall master, is this ...... It's too risky...... "However, the sect members are still a little worried, after all, among all the hall masters, Dong Xun has the most power, and if he violates his orders, the consequences can be imagined.

"What do you mean by that? Are you doubting the ability of the hall master-" Who would have thought, Xiying seemed to be overly sensitive to this issue, and scolded.

"No, no, the little ones don't dare ......" Faced with a dilemma, the believer immediately retracted his words.

"Now here, there is only one master of the hall, and you all have to obey my orders—if you disobey the order, you will be killed!" Xiying said majestically at the end, and no one dared to speak again......

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the dense jungle soil was already full of stagnant water, and Qi Xueyin and Xiying in the formation looked at each other, and neither dared to have any underestimating enemies.

"Hmph, Dongxun and Beipheasant, the two guys, have never identified with me......" However, in Xiying's heart, there seems to be a knot of shame that is difficult to untie......

(in recall)......

"What are you looking for from us?" asked Xiying first after the North Pheasant arrived.

"Did you gain anything from what you told you last time?" Dong Xun then asked.

"Of course there is—" Xiying replied with a smile, "The brother standing guard in Kurong Town saw that the woman from the 'Qiyu Sect' and the girl with inconvenient legs and feet had been in town for two days, and then they didn't go out......"

Dongxun smiled secretly when he heard this, it turned out that he had already known the news that Qi Xueyin and Du Juan had come to Kurong Town......

"Big brother, what should I do, do you follow the original plan?" asked the northern pheasant.

"Yes, as I said before, act according to the plan...... Dong Xun said, and then emphasized, "But after the plan is successful, you must notify me as soon as possible, and you must not act recklessly without authorization, do you understand?——?"

"Understood—" the Pheasant replied.

However, Xiying didn't speak on the side, as if he was worried, and he didn't even look at Dongxun very right.

"West Hall Master, do you have any questions?" Dong Xun noticed that Xiying was wrong, and asked in a different voice.

"Nothing...... No problem......" Xiying replied only perfunctorily.

"Listen, the most important thing is to notify me as soon as the plan is successful, remember!" Dongxun seemed to be very concerned about this, and repeatedly emphasized, "That woman is not simple, if you act rashly, you will suffer a big loss...... Now that the South Hall Master has died first, I don't want any more accidents to happen to you two brothers......"

"Don't worry, big brother, we will definitely act according to the plan!" replied the pheasant on the side.

However, Xiying still had a slightly unwilling expression, and said secretly in his heart: "Hmph, what kind of ability does that woman have to make you care so much about big brother? I still don't believe it, I can't deal with her with my own strength......

It seems that in Xiying's heart, he has his own plans......

(In reality)......

"You two, you have never looked down on me since then......" Remembering the instructions of that day, Xiying secretly hated in his heart, "You let me act according to the plan, and I will bear you a burden today—I want to prove to you that without you, I can succeed!"

Suddenly, Xiying's whole body was surrounded by gathered qi, as if a sky-high force was ready to attack.

Qi Xueyin saw it in her eyes, felt the momentum of the other party's strong shock, and the "Purple Tooth Knife" was in her hand, and she didn't dare to relax at all.

"Seven-pointed Star Array——" Xiying shouted loudly again, this time no disciple dared to disobey the order again, and all the disciples took out their darts and hidden weapons, as if they wanted to kill Qi Xueyinzhan......

And at this moment, in the stronghold of the "Canghuan Sect", because Xiying succeeded in luring Qi Xueyin into the trap, because no signal was sent back, Dongxun and Bei Pheasant were still unaware. It's just that the atmosphere today is a little solemn, as if the two of them are discussing something important......

"Do you mean it really?" Bei Pheasant came back to report the news, Dong Xun seemed to have heard something terrible, and asked with a tight expression.

"Yes, it was the disciple who survived the front line who said it......" Bei Pheasant whispered, "Qingmo Villa has been attacked by someone, and I am afraid that the confidential documents we have stored there have been ......"

It turned out that the matter reported by the North Pheasant was the attack on Qingmo Villa, and this matter was still in Zuo Ziyou in the capital, and he had already known about it a long time ago.

"When did this happen?" asked Dong Xun cautiously.

"About twenty days ago......," Bei Pheasant continued, "it happened very suddenly, our main manpower was either in the capital at that time, and no one would have thought that Qingmo Villa, which no one was paying attention to, would be attacked by sneak attack......"

"Do you know who attacked him?" asked Dongxun coldly again.

"I don't know......," the pheasant replied in a low voice, "but I heard the report from the people who came back, it seems that it is the ...... of the troops of the Mengyuan Imperial Court."

"What? The people of the imperial court-" Dongxun couldn't help but show a surprised look when he heard this, "How is this possible? Now most of the troops of the imperial court are resisting the invasion of the 'Ming Fu Sect', and even so, the imperial court is becoming more and more declining, especially after the death of King Chatai...... In that case, how could they still have the spare energy to get involved in the affairs of Qingmo Villa, did the people who came back see it wrong?"

"You shouldn't be mistaken...... Bei Pheasant continued to report, "According to the disciples who survived, the troops they saw that night were all dressed in the armor of Mengyuan officers and soldiers, and if it weren't for the men and horses of the imperial court, I can't imagine who else would ......."

"However, in such a situation in most of the capitals, which imperial court troops have the ability to sneak attack Qingmo Villa quietly......" Dongxun listened to it, and secretly worried alone, "And what is their purpose, now that the focus of the incident is in Dadu, why are they doing this......

"Then do we need to send men and horses to take back Qingmo Villa now?" the northern pheasant continued to ask.

"No, if it's really the imperial court's troops who sneak attacked the villa, it means that their forces are not in the minority......" Dong Xun shook his head and said calmly, "We are already short of manpower now, and we still have to deal with that woman of the Qiyu Sect, plus Qingmo Villa is not a particularly serious problem for us now, so we don't need to focus on that......"

"By the way, speaking of the woman from the Qiyu Sect, more than ten days have passed, why hasn't ......there been any news at all," mentioning Qi Xueyin's matter, Bei Pheasant asked on the side.

"Since those two women entered Kurong Town, they haven't gone out again, right?" asked Dong Xun in a raised voice.

"No—" replied the pheasant affirmatively, "since that day, we have heightened our guard at the entrance and exit of Kurong Town, and we have not seen the two women leave......"

"Then they must still be in the town—" Dong Xun said affirmatively, "I asked the Lord of the West Hall to send officials around the town according to the plan, just to lure that woman to appear, and I don't know if the plan was successful or not......"

"According to the original plan, the West Hall Master will lead that woman to the back mountain first, and then send us a signal, and then we will send reinforcements to completely solve the woman......" Bei Pheasant said, and then his expression changed, "But the West Hall Master has not had any news these days, but he has kept borrowing people from me, saying that he wants to ambush and set up formations or something......"

"Of course...... Dong Xun explained on the side, "That woman of the Qiyu Sect is not simple, and most of the West Hall Master alone can't solve it, he borrowed someone from you to make the plan foolproof......

"Then I won't borrow so much?...... "he borrowed a hundred or so men from me, saying that he would ambush them if necessary......"

"What, he borrowed so much ?——" Dongxun's expression couldn't help but change when he heard this.

"Of course, he didn't explain to me much why......" Bei Pheasant continued, "I really don't know what that guy is usually silent behind our backs, I don't know what he is thinking about it......"

"That guy, should you ......" Dongxun seemed to have guessed something, and his heart was inexplicably tight.

"Big brother, what do you say we should do now? There has been no news of that guy for a long time, and he went out again early this morning......" The northern pheasant seemed to be confused, and asked in a daze.

"It's wrong, this guy might be doing something behind our backs......" Dong Xun reminded, his expression becoming very serious.

"Doing things behind our backs?...... what's the matter?" the pheasant couldn't help but ask nervously when he heard that his tone was wrong.

"You immediately send men to the ambush site—" Dong Xun continued, "I still have something to deal with here, you must hurry there, see the West Hall Master, bring him back for me first!"

"Okay big brother, I know-" The northern pheasant answered the order, and then withdrew from the people in the sect and left.

"That guy, if I'm not mistaken......" Dong Xun seemed to have guessed something, and his expression was slightly nervous......

Dongxun and Bei Pheasant are still suspicious, who would have thought that Xiying has already met Qi Xueyin here. And Xiying didn't seem to plan to tell the two of them about Qi Xueyin, and wanted to deal with it alone, so he changed his original plan......

Qi Xueyin was surrounded by hundreds of disciples at this time, and there was no place to retreat. But Qi Xueyin was not afraid, under the pouring rain, her unyielding eyes showed an unyielding gaze......

"Hmph, you don't want to escape from here today...... Xiying snorted coldly, already feeling that he had eaten the other party.

"Heh, who is going to escape?...... Qi Xueyin didn't care, and said disdainfully, "The master of the West Hall has laid a net here today, and for the little girl, it is really a 'heavy gift', in that case, the little woman should return it to you——"

"Seven-pointed star array, give me ——" Xiying shouted and ordered his disciples to raid in the direction of Qi Xueyin.

As soon as the order passed, the darts of the "Seven-Pointed Star" flew arrows, and countless starry cold points under the falling rain suddenly attacked, as if they were extinguished, and they rushed towards Qi Xueyin in an instant.

Qi Xueyin waited for the battle, holding the "Purple Tooth Knife" and flying up, whirling a style of "Wind and Moon Shattering", a round of killing arrays, accompanied by a storm and a storm, "clanging clanging" under the volley, Qi Xueyin slashed with a knife, and intercepted several "Broken Flower Hidden Weapons".

"These secret weapons are poisonous...... "After Qi Xueyin landed, she secretly reminded in her heart, "I suffered a loss when I was in Qingmo Villa, and I must be cautious this time...... And that guy......"

As she spoke, Qi Xueyin set her eyes on Xiying on the opposite side again.

Xiying did not inform Dongxun and Bei Pheasant as originally planned, that he wanted to monopolize the credit and solve Qi Xueyin alone. Of course, he also knew that Qi Xueyin's martial arts were unfathomable, and as a disciple of the "Qiyu Sect" Taishi Hansheng, it would be very tricky to fight one-on-one.

"Go on, don't give her a chance to breathe—— Xiying continued to order his men and flew towards Qi Xueyin.

Qi Xueyin saw it in her eyes, and immediately changed her move with the cold knife in her hand......
