“Will it match up?”
“There are some discrepancies, but it’s more or less the same!”
With a serious expression, Zhou Yuanli reported the information he had just interrogated from the other person to Luo Chen.
“Great Lake Gang!”
“The group of enemies besieging Crescent Valley, they mostly come from the Great Lake Gang.”
“You should know the person leading.”
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, “I know? It can’t be Gao Tingyuan, right?”
“Yes, indeed it’s him.” Zhou Yuanli said heavily: “Not only that, among the invaders, there were five at the Ninth Level of Qi Refinement, and the remaining cultivators at Middle and Late Stages of Qi Refinement are at least over a hundred.”
Hearing this number, even Luo Chen, who was already prepared, couldn’t help taking a gasp of cold breath.
What the hell is the Great Lake Gang doing?
This force is almost one-third of the Great Lake Gang’s power, right?
Just to deal with the two halls of the Crescent Valley?
Especially Pill Hall and Medicine Hall, they are not known for their combat power, just merely the inner productive halls.
“Is it Gao Tingyuan being forced into desperation for revenge, or the Great Lake Gang has other plans?”
Luo Chen thought for a while, and asked directly, “Can Elder Sikong be contacted?”
“I have his Sound Transmission Talisman, but it’s too slow, and I cannot contact him immediately. But I am sure that he is still alive.”
If Sikong Shoujia could be summoned back, the combat power of Crescent Valley could be greatly increased.
This kind of Old Cultivator, although perhaps hopeless in their cultivation journey, is already extremely proficient in their combat skills.
It can’t be compared to Gu Caiyi, who just advanced to the Ninth Level of Qi Refinement.
“First, take defensive measures!”
Luo Chen ordered.
“Hall Master, what to do with the two spies?”
“Kill them.” Luo Chen said casually, seemingly unconcerned.
Zhou Yuanli’s expression tightened, and he retreated.
Soon, he watched two cultivators who had been tortured near death were beheaded by Dong Fangliang. Zhou Yuanli felt a bit uneasy.
Luo Chen’s performance today really surprised him.
Usually, Luo Chen seems to have a high talent in Dao of Alchemy, and he is kind and friendly.
Although he is a bit cynical, overall, he doesn’t seem threatening.
Harmless to humans and animals!
These four words could sum it up.
But Luo Chen’s performance today…
Whether it is deciding to let people in to resolve internal and external conflicts, or identifying spies and swiftly taking action – all of them reveal the unusual resolute measures hidden under his usual gentle appearance.
Especially when dealing with the two spies, a ruthless and merciless side of him was vividly displayed.
This is almost completely different from the Luo Chen everyone knows.
“No wonder the Gang Leader asked me to pay more attention to Luo Chen, and I didn’t expect him to hide so deeply!”
With a restless heart, Zhou Yuanli thought about how he had argued with Luo Chen, disregarding his orders and activating the Great Formation first.
The way Luo Chen looked at him at that time, thinking about it now, really sent chills down his spine.
Just as he was in turmoil, a subordinate rushed in.
“Elder Sikong is back!”
“Where?” Zhou Yuanli quickly asked.
“He has already entered Crescent Valley.”
“Damn it, who let you guys let him in!”
Zhou Yuanli’s face altered slightly, and he quickly ran out.
Just as he arrived at the Pill Hall, he saw Sikong Shoujia sitting across from Luo Chen and Murong Qinglian.
At this moment, he looked quite embarrassed, with frost all over his body.
Even ice shards were hanging on his beard.
“It’s the Calamity Cultivator from Xuelian District!”
Sikong Shoujia gasped for breath and said, and then stared at Luo Chen with fierce eyes.
“All of this is caused by you!”
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, “Elder Sikong, what do you mean?”
“Gao Tingyuan has always suspected that you killed his younger brother, and the Calamity Cultivator chasing me from Xuelian District is obviously the one who failed to ambush you last time and was pursued for his bounty, Dan Xiu.”
“And you still say they didn’t come for you?”
Luo Chen chuckled lightly, “If it’s just for me, they just need to set up an ambush on my way back to the city. Why would they need to make such a big move and send hundreds of cultivators to attack Crescent Valley?”
“You should know that this is equivalent to being an enemy of the whole Broken Mountain Gang and an enemy of Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Gang Leader Mi!”
Sikong Shoujia was dumbfounded and quickly understood.
Yes!
Such a big movement is almost comparable to the Great Lake Gang attacking the seven halls of the Broken Mountain Gang.
Even, it exceeds that.
The force led by five Ninth Level Qi Refinement cultivators can almost sweep most small forces mainly made up of Qi Refinement cultivators.
This act is already considered a public confrontation with the Broken Mountain Gang.
You should know that the last conflict between the two gangs was settled only when the blood of nine masters was spilled on the Dao Debate Platform.
Yet, this happened only a short while ago.
How dare they start a war again so soon?
Luo Chen didn’t bother to argue with him, walked to the edge of the cliff, and looked into the distance.
Outside the earthy-yellow light shield, enemy figures had begun to appear.
General formation was fan-shaped, they are slowly surrounding Crescent Valley.
Just like making dumplings, unless they abandoned the Crescent Valley base and fled to the Xiao Yue Mountain Range behind them, they would be trapped in a pot.
However, Crescent Valley has been operated by the Broken Mountain Gang for a long time. The Spirit Fields, Medicine Hall, and the various medicinal materials inside can’t be easily abandoned.
Especially, there is the most important Pill Hall!
It can be said that, without receiving orders from Mi Shuhua, nobody would dare to directly abandon Crescent Valley.
From a distance, Luo Chen saw the short and stout man in the sky outside.
Regardless of whether the other party could see him, Luo Chen waved. Greeting?
At this time!
Behind him, Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang looked at each other. It seemed like the familiar Luo Chen was back..
