Mo Yang and his group saw the white tiger approaching them slowly and instantly grabbed their weapons warily.
“Who are you?”
Mo Yang looked serious, his greatest fear was that they had been exposed.
“Don’t be too nervous, I mean no harm!”
From behind the white tiger, a man wearing a mask jumped down, holding no weapons in his hands; naturally, this person was Wang Sheng.
Mo Yang did not let down his guard, ready to take action at any disagreement because their mission was risky and they couldn’t afford to leak any information before it commenced.
“I heard you’re going to rescue those people, we share the same goal.”
“You’re here to rescue people too?”
Wang Sheng nodded and said, “Of course!”
“Then why have you come here?”
“This spot is a good vantage point to observe Lushui County, I figured anyone with a plan would come to take a look, right?”
Wang Sheng had indeed encountered them by chance, this location was particularly suitable for observing the situation in Lushui County and responding accordingly, this group was also lucky not to have run into any enemies.
“…”
Mo Yang remained silent for a while, and before he could speak, the people surrounding him spoke up.
“Brother Mo, what he says makes sense!” The junior wasn’t usually this straightforward.
“…”
Mo Yang also acknowledged the possibility, although still cautious, the hostility he initially felt was no longer there.
“Since you have come to save people, you are one of us. We naturally welcome you, but this mission is very dangerous. Have you thought it through?”
“I’m already here, naturally I have thought it through!”
Mo Yang saw that Wang Sheng did not appear to be an enemy and gradually lowered his guard, saying, “Do you want to join our plan or act alone? Let me be clear, if you join us, you need to follow the command…”
He mentioned this because Wang Sheng had asked if he could be included.
“No worries, I will follow your lead!”
Wang Sheng smiled indifferently, having clearly heard their plan.
There wasn’t much of a plan anyway, just recklessly attacking the Green Flood Dragon Gang to create chaos and let the common folk escape. Whether acting alone or together, the plan was almost the same.
But having said that, it relaxed Mo Yang and the others considerably.
“Since that’s the case, why don’t you listen to our plan too?”
Mo Yang thought Wang Sheng had not heard everything, so he repeated his plan and also explained the reason.
Wang Sheng found it to be quite good.
Giving the common people a chance to escape wasn’t foolish.
“Sounds good, then let’s act together on that day. My abilities are quite decent!”
Seeing Wang Sheng agree with him, Mo Yang was also very happy.
A fellow rescuer recognizing his ideas, there was no simpler way to earn goodwill.
Thus, it was only natural that Wang Sheng blended in with Mo Yang and his group, casually getting to know these people.
This group was also from Shuzhou, having come specifically to rescue people.
Mo Yang was the leader, and the others were followers.
The group discussed, and to avoid alarming the enemies, planned to act during the sacrifice in three days’ time. Simply put, they aimed to save as many as possible, while people from the other two counties could only fend for themselves.
“Brother Wang, where did you tame this white tiger?”
Mo Yang trusted Wang Sheng’s strength because of the presence of the white tiger.
Anyone who could tame a Mountain Lord, especially one that looked so formidable, had to be at least a Sixth Grade Martial Artist.
Of course, he also felt envious; having such a white Mountain Lord as a mount was indeed very cool.
“It was tamed by chance during one incident when it wanted to challenge someone, I won and, after various events, I tamed it.”
The Mountain Lord yawned, the past was painful to recall!
It had secretly cultivated for so long, finally achieving a certain level, and wanted to test its skills, but ended up as someone’s mount.
Of course, it enjoyed this feeling; lying down and growing stronger, who wouldn’t want that!
“…”
The group sat together and quickly became familiar with one another, discussing everything.
There were stories about Mo Yang and his junior, as well as discussions about Wang Sheng, especially about his mask.
“Mask? Oh, I wear it because my face is ugly, so I keep it on to spare you all the laughter!”
That was how Wang Sheng explained it.
Mo Yang and his people were afraid of hurting his self-esteem, so they had never asked, and they consciously avoided him when he was eating.
“…”
Wang Sheng watched these people who actually believed, and he didn’t know what to say.
They were really naive. Did they never think of the possibility that he was concealing his identity?
However, given the character of Mo Yang and his people, it might really be the case.
If it weren’t so, they wouldn’t have come to do this thankless task of rescuing people without any reward—it was only such “fools” who would do this.
If anyone considered the benefits a bit, they wouldn’t be here.
Time passed quickly, and three days later,
Lushui County city and countless villages suddenly became active again. However, this activity was not voluntary—the members of the Green Flood Dragon Gang had driven everyone out.
Heading toward a certain place, these people vaguely understood their fate.
“Let’s rush together, there are only so many people from the Green Flood Dragon Gang. If we all escape together, some of us will make it.”
It was difficult to move around in the city, but outside the city gates, some saw it as the best chance to escape.
But—
“Escape, can we escape? The members of the Green Flood Dragon Gang are all martial artists. They can easily kill us. How can we escape and just go to our deaths?”
Some people had their psychological defenses shattered long ago, so they didn’t dare resist.
The person who initially made the suggestion clenched his teeth and looked at his child.
“How about I take the lead!”
Taking the lead at such a time was basically a death sentence, but it could give others a chance.
But at such times, negative emotions spread the fastest, and no one was willing to follow him.
Looking at the silent people around him, the person who made the suggestion also fell silent. For a few, doing this was simply a direct delivery to death.
“Do we really have to obediently go to our deaths?”
He was somewhat in despair. He didn’t care about his own death; he just wanted his child to survive.
But under the current circumstances, unless a divine weapon descended from the heavens—
“Roar!”
A tremendous roar came, piercing through the clouds. Everyone who heard it was momentarily dazed.
When people came to their senses, they heard the fearful voices of the Green Flood Dragon Gang’s martial artists.
“Who are you, daring to attack our Green Flood Dragon Gang’s people!”
“Ah!”
Wang Sheng and his group took action!
This was the best opportunity.
Big Bai’s intimidating roar was followed by them entering the scene and killing the gang’s members.
There were about a few hundred people guarding these villagers, and most of the gang members weren’t strong, so dozens were killed in a short time.
Soon after, Mo Yang’s shout was heard.
“People of Lushui County, now is the best chance, if not now, then when?”
His followers also shouted the same words from different places.
These villagers hesitated momentarily, but then the man who had suggested earlier led the way and started running. He knew this was indeed the best chance.
With someone leading, the villagers were thrown into chaos!
Escaping was the only thing on their minds.
But just at that moment, a blade gleaming with blood streaked through the air, drawing a long line on the ground, targeting the fleeing villagers.
Mo Yang reacted quickly, leaping up and using his large blade to block this blade light, but he was also forced back more than ten meters.
His expression was solemn.
A strong enemy, a real strong one!
An enemy not weaker than him, perhaps even stronger.
Not only that, at this moment, a person came out, his large hammer faintly glowing with the red light of Qi Blood Power.
Another Seventh-Grade Martial Artist…
Mo Yang was shocked in his heart. Had the Green Flood Dragon Gang really grown this strong?
It seemed dangerous only having him on their side!
And the newly appeared member of the Green Flood Dragon Gang, with a ferocious countenance, looked at the ready Mo Yang and revealed a cruel smile.
“It seems we really caught some little bugs, you—”
But he hadn’t finished speaking when something unexpected happened!
