Chapter 1449 - Attacking From Eight Paths!

1449 Attacking From Eight Paths!

“The mission… is naturally one that’s very important.” Horse Face was put in a rather difficult spot. “Moreover, when you have recovered slightly, you’ll need to be transferred out of here immediately. This place is going to become very dangerous.”

“Very dangerous? I have to be transferred? That won’t do! If anything were to happen to all of you, how am I to live on?” Ji Mo spoke with justice and conviction regarding his transfer. “All of you are my benefactors, of course I have to share life and death with everyone!”

“All of you are my family!”

“How can little brother here fear death and live on in disgrace when my elder brothers are in such a perilous situation? Wouldn’t that make me worse than a beast?!”

“If I don’t do anything for all of you, I won’t be able to rest in peace even after my death.”

“I beg you to let me do at least a bit for all of you… Even if I can’t do much, I would feel better if I could at least be with all of you…”

What could the Xiao Clan men say when faced with such a sincere and earnest request?

And so, Second Master Ji remained in the mine.

News only got to them late in the night. Chu Yang and the others had already left the Chu Clan in the afternoon and were on their way here…

Xiao Chenlei mused for a moment. He had also once wondered whether this ‘Jiang Ye’ was a spy from the Chu Clan. However, the gap in the timeframe dispelled his suspicions yet again.

And at this point, thanks to the Xiao Clan’s amazing medicine, Ji Mo could already move a little. But of course, it was still totally impossible for him to get off the bed and walk.

However, it didn’t affect him chatting in any way.

Thus, Ji Mo already knew each Supreme Martial Artist’s role and position like the back of his hand.

“Benefactor… Where are you stationed? Why do I feel like I haven’t seen you in such a long time…”

“Benefactor… Is your position dangerous? Sigh, too bad my protective vest has already fallen into pieces…”

“Big Brother… You’re just like my actual elder brother, sob. I’m so grateful to you for coming to treat my wounds again… Where are you stationed? Can’t you stay with me a little more… Are you that busy…”

“Elder Xiao… I really can’t believe that you’re already ten thousand years-old… This-this… this is truly a miracle! Oh my goodness… I’ve finally seen a living celestial being today… Aaahh, Elder Xiao… How come you haven’t aged at all…”

“Third Brother Xiao, wow, you’ve had it tough… Come, come, let us brothers chat. I’ll relieve you of boredom.”

“Why? Why don’t you want to chat with me? I… How did I offend you? I’ll correct my behavior…”

Second Master Ji’s tone was sincere and his expression innocent. Moreover, if the other party ignored him, he would pester him to no end…

Such as —”Have I offended you? Please be magnanimous and don’t hold it against me. I’m young and don’t know any better, speaking without thinking it through…”

“Why don’t you keep me company and chat with me? I’m so lonely. Once I feel lonely, I end up thinking about my deep blood feud, and right away, I feel like I have nothing worth living for anymore…”

“Thank you, thank you… Thank you so much for keeping me company and chatting with me… What shall we chat about? Haha, why don’t Seventh Brother Xiao tell me the story about this mine…”

“Hahaha… A secret? Does Seventh Brother Xiao think I’m silly? Haha… This mine looks just like a Purple Crystal mine. Even though little brother here doesn’t amount to much, I’m still all ‘hurhurhur’ and ‘spit spit spit’ toward a mere Purple Crystal mine…”

“Oh… I see. A dragon and a phoenix? Are you sure you aren’t just bragging?”

“That’s impossible! How can there be a dragon and a phoenix in this world…”

“That’s practically a joke…”

“What the f*ck! T-this is actually real? Oh my god… I’ve misunderstood you. I deserve to die for my sin, my sin is unforgivable, I am such a great sinner… I shall repent…”

“Do you really need to go to that extent… I don’t think it really matters… What Chu Clan? Are they really that powerful? Can they possibly be more powerful than all of you? I don’t believe it!”

“I just don’t believe it!”

“I won’t believe it even if I die!”

“Huh? So they really are very powerful? …Oh dear, I shall stick with you through life and death. I want to share both life and death with you…”

“It’s a shame that we couldn’t be born on the same day of the same month in the same year, but should there really be any danger and you and I brothers die on the same day of the same month in the same year, I, Jiang Ye, would also have lived a life worth living…”

…

Even though the Xiao Clan Supreme Martial Artists enjoyed his flattery quite a bit, they were also rather perplexed. As if there was anyone like him who liked talking so much even after cultivating for so many years into a Supreme Martial Artist?

They truly didn’t expect that this young fellow whom they had saved would turn out to be such a chatterbox! His mouth prattered non-stop. What made them the most speechless was that even if no one was with him, he could actually break into an angry rant at the empty room or even mutter to himself. When a bug crawled past him, the fellow would even lament tearfully, “Little bug… I’m so envious of you for being so worry-free… How would you know my pain…”

Everyone truly admitted defeat…

Damn, after living for so many years, I finally know what a ‘weirdo’ is…

I’ll bet that if this kid dies, that tongue of his would definitely be the last thing to suffer rigor mortis. After such rigorous training, that tongue has already attained enlightenment long ago… Its level of activity is simply too high.

Little did they know that amidst all his glib talk, Second Master Ji had already gotten a clear-as-day picture of all the details here.

…

It was finally evening!

As night descended upon the world, Chu Yang, Mo Tianji and the others also entered the vicinity of Aspen Valley, unbeknownst to anyone.

The moment they entered the area, Mo Tianji issued orders — The brothers were to disperse and use their own respective methods to infiltrate Aspen Valley. They were to convene in front of the mine entrance.

“The enemy must have set up an inescapable trap at the mine. As long as Elder Yue doesn’t step in, we definitely won’t be their match! Thus, in this battle, if we wish to take the treasure and also train ourselves, it’s going to be especially challenging. As such, we must concentrate our forces to break through one area first!”

“Dispersing now is for the purpose of coming together later.”

“We won’t carelessly attack the mine and fall into their trap. However, we must leave traces of ourselves there and ensure that we attract all of their forces there.”

“Then, we’ll attack their basecamp and cut off their replenishment supplies! Such that they no longer have anything supporting them at their core.”

“Acting separately this time, everyone must write down the full details of the method you used after this operation and submit it to me, including your state of mind at that time.”

Compared to obtaining the treasure and the seventh fragment of the Nine Tribulations Sword, Mo Tianji obviously placed more emphasis on the way the brothers moved this time.

“Although we have gathered together at this point, we may not be able to stay together for life. There will definitely be a lot more situations where we’ll have to fight on our own. Everyone’s respective ways of doing things and what form it takes are very crucial!”

“Our training against the enemy this time shall mark the beginning! Thus, everyone must complete it independently!”

Mo Tianji spoke solemnly.

Toward this decision, Chu Yang was wholeheartedly supportive.

The seven brothers, Mo Qingwu and Mo Lei’er dispersed at once. Under the cover of the night, they entered the bushes in Aspen Valley soundlessly…

Mo Qingwu was also acting independently this time!

The young girl was obviously a little scared. However, both Mo Tianji and Chu Yang hardened their hearts at the same time and deliberately overlooked Mo Qingwu’s pitiful gaze.

Pouting, the aggrieved young girl went to carry out her mission.

Leaving behind two men sighing deeply.

“You don’t need to persuade me; I understand!”

Both Chu Yang and Mo Tianji said this at the same time.

They opened their mouths at the same time and closed their mouths at the same time, sporting the exact same conflicted expression as they sighed, and an identical pose of waving their hands.

“My younger sister needs training so that she can get used to this martial world. I understand this reasoning, but who do you think you are?” Mo Tianji became rather displeased at once.

Chu Yang replied patiently and sincerely, “Big Brother-in-law, I must especially remind you of something — Your younger sister is my wife! Do you understand what the word ‘wife’ means? Hmm? Is there any meaning to you acting like an old hen protecting her chick every single day? She is indeed your younger sister, but how long can you keep your younger sister company?”

Minister Chu was rather smug. “On the other hand, my wife is to stay with me for life. What do you, an elder brother, amount to? Actually being jealous everyday for no reason. Are you very bored?”

Mo Tianji glared at him furiously. “You!”

“What about me?” Having gotten the upper hand, Chu Yang immediately interrupted him and counter-attacked. “I can replace your role as an elder brother, but can you replace my role as a husband? Are you even in a position to stand against me and be jealous of me?”

Mo Tianji buried his face in his hands and walked away.

Sword Master Chu let out a long breath, his head proudly held up high.

Damn, it’s an overwhelming upper hand for me this time! This feels too awesome…

His battle with Mo Tianji had never felt this good before.

With a flash, he concealed himself in the bushes.

Dong Wushang was the first to move. Using the darkness as a cover for his well-built physique, he chose a kind of advancement method that was close to being open and aboveboard. While Dong Wushang also wished that he could achieve the so-called covertness that Mo Tianji mentioned, he simply couldn’t achieve that sort of nimble movement.

And so, he decided that he might as well just charge over in this half-public manner. Not just that, the more he charged forward, the mightier his momentum was, the more justified and bold his actions were, and the more open and aboveboard he became.

Much like a whirlwind rampaging above the ground.

A short distance away to Dong Wushang’s right was of course Mo Lei’er.

The slender form of the Black Devil Young Master seemed to have blended completely into the darkness of the night, moving along with the night fog. Ever since she met Mo Tianji and he handed her the old Black Devil’s secret manual of cultivation knowledge, being of the same origin as the secret manual right from the start and with the cultivation of a Supreme Martial Artist as support, Mo Lei’er naturally mastered it the moment she started practicing it. This practically doubled her power!

Ao Xieyun was like a meandering snake, ‘slithering’ silently through the bushes. No trace of himself was left behind wherever he passed through; even the soft and tender leaves and grass weren’t damaged in any way at all.

This was the Great Dragon Form Technique! The Dragon race’s exclusive secret technique!

Rui Butong took on the form of a large bird, soaring freely in the dense forest without touching ground at all. His black robes fluttered and extended swiftly. Even if someone were to look at him right from the opposite, he would only think that this was a large bird and not a human at all.

This was the Phoenix race’s Leisurely Travels movement technique!

Luo Kedi strictly followed the art of stealth and concealment, stealing forward meticulously. Every move and action of his was precise and standard, as though a textbook.

Xie Danqiong’s body spun as he advanced. Although the speed of his spinning was fast, no sound was produced at all. His body transformed into a blurry whirlwind.

Under this condition, not only was he able to conceal himself perfectly, but this was also a perfect state for him to strike with his viburnum flowers. This stance could be said to be of both offensive and defensive nature.

Mo Tianji’s white robes fluttered, blending perfectly with the moonlight that occasionally streamed through the forest. He moved elegantly, just like an expanse of pure and beautiful moonlight.

Nobody could see where Chu Yang was.

However, Mo Tianji could guess where he was. Wherever those bunches of red flowers bloomed in the forest, Chu Yang would definitely be somewhere nearby.

Because that was Mo Qingwu advancing.

Mo Qingwu’s red robes were like bright and vibrant crimson flowers blooming in the bushes wherever she passed by. Yet no one would find it out of place.

Crimson flowers danced among green leaves, as though the most exquisite and beautiful dance in the universe taking flight between heaven and earth.

They attacked from eight different paths!

Their target — The Purple Crystal mine entrance!
