Chapter 162: Chapter 160 Silver Fox Young Master
Early in the morning, the deep woods were filled with fog.
From inside a tent, Ning Daoran stepped out, revitalized after a night of cultivation.
In the distance, the roars of demon beasts mixed with the sounds of cultivators wielding magical treasures. The earth trembled intermittently, indicating the increasing damage to the great array.
In the mist, figures flew back through the air, all Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
They carried the corpses of demon beasts in their hands, haphazardly dropping them in front of them.
Among them, first-tier demon beasts were predominant, though there were also so second-tier.
“Cut off the horns of the Rock Land Barbaric Bulls,”
Ning Daoran ordered. “They are the main materials for refining and repairing the Cold Que Wushang Array. Also, keep all the fur and teeth of the Golden Fla Demon Wolf as auxiliary materials.”
“Yes, Martial Uncle!”
The disciples promptly collected the materials.
Nearby, Xiao Ze was checking off a list, marking it as he spoke. “We are still short of so auxiliary materials, but we have sent sound transmission talismans back, and soon people from Xiyu Pavilion will co to deliver.”
Shortly after, several flying boats appeared in view.
Unexpectedly, it was soone familiar.
“Fellow Daoist Ning, is it really you?”
“Fellow Daoist Chen, it turns out to be you?”
Ning Daoran and Chen Ping’er were taken aback as they faced each other.
Ning Daoran hadn’t expected that the person from Xiyu Pavilion assigned to deliver goods would be Chen Ping’er, while Chen Ping’er didn’t expect that the person managing logistics at the front line for Chaotic Sect this ti would be Ning Daoran.
It was quite fortunate, as the two had done business together not once but several tis and were quite familiar with each other.
Ning Daoran imdiately took various materials delivered by Chen Ping’er, then sold the parts of the demon beast corpses that were not needed on the spot to Xiyu Pavilion, offsetting the cost of the array materials with spirit stones.
This put both parties in a win-win situation.
…
Several days later, the damaged arrays flags and plates of the Cold Que Wushang Array were all re-forged and repaired, and soon, a new Cold Que Wushang Array erged from the ground, protecting a large area of Chaotic Sect’s territory.
This news spread.
Gongyang Yan slapped his thigh, “I knew it! Ning Daoran has exceptional talent in the Array Path. Of course, he could do it! Co, let’s assign him the repair tasks for the other great arrays too; this youngster is reliable!”
His words, however, made Ning Daoran extrely busy.
In the days that followed, Ning Daoran was occupied daily with crafting and repairing arrays, from second-order large arrays to first-tier minor arrays, mastering them all.
At the sa ti, business with Xiyu Pavilion grew, greatly compensating for the sect’s losses on the battlefield.
Late that night.
Figures returned from the north.
It was ng Xiao and a group of Foundation Establishnt Elders.
“Swoosh!”
ng Xiao threw down the body of a second rank middle-stage Demon Tiger from the air, but his eyes fell on Ning Daoran, who was holding a notebook and recording the materials list.
“Senior Brother Ning.”
This inheriting disciple, considered a future Sect Master candidate, sneered, “The Sect spent so much spirit stones to cultivate you to Foundation Establishnt. As a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, are you really content with just farming and playing with arrays?
Wouldn’t all the resources the sect poured into you be wasted?”
“Junior Brother ng, what do you an?”
Ning Daoran frowned.
“Martial Uncle ng!”
Xiao Ze defended, “In these past days, Martial Uncle Ning has repaired several great arrays, ensuring that the sect’s territory has not receded even a step. Why must you impose further undue criticism?”
“Xiao Ze.”
ng Xiao sneered, “You, a junior, what right do you have to speak here? Get lost!”
“You…”
Xiao Ze clenched his teeth in anger.
“Junior Brother ng!”
Several Foundation Establishnt brothers quickly tried to diate.
“Hmph!”
After shooting them a sharp look, ng Xiao returned to the frontline.
Ning Daoran frowned; why did this inheriting disciple act as if everyone owed him a vast sum? People like that… they tend to et violent ends.
…
Distant mountain ranges.
The deep forest was thick with demon qi.
On a cliff, two figures overlooked the distant battlefield. One was an old woman dressed in golden robes, radiating the strong aura of a third-tier middle-level demon beast.
The other figure was a young man in a white robe with vertical pupils—a transford third-tier early-stage demon beast.
These two were none other than Lady Jin Hua of the Silver Fox Clan and the Silver Fox Young Master.
“Chaotic Sect is Qingzhou’s leading sect, with a Gold Core Late Stage cultivator in residence. We mustn’t underestimate them,”
Lady Jin Hua narrowed her eyes, “The arrangent of Chaotic Sect’s formations is very thodical. Several second-order great arrays are connected, and it seems that a second-order Array Master is continuously repairing and replacing the damaged formations, which is truly troubleso.”
“Hmph, just a few arrays.”
The Silver Fox Young Master’s face showed ferocity, “If it weren’t for you holding back, grandmother, I would have led our people to break through that Cold Que Wushang Array in the middle several days ago and marched southward.”
“Young Master, do not be overly hasty.”
Lady Jin Hua’s vertical pupils flickered, “Neither of us knows where that Gold Core Late Stage Jiang Yu currently is. She might be observing us from the shadows, waiting for the mont we commit fully.”
“What’s there to be afraid of?”
The Silver Fox Young Master frowned, “Together, can’t you and I defeat just any single person from the Human Clan at the Gold Core Late Stage?”
“Young Master, do not underestimate the enemy…” Lady Jin Hua’s expression was tinged with helplessness.
“I have never underestimated my enemies.”
The Silver Fox Young Master’s silver eyes flickered continuously as he spoke, “Rather, it is the cultivators of the Chaotic Sect who have underestimated my Silver Fox Clan, especially that late-stage Foundation Establishnt True Disciple, ng Xiao. This man is ruthless and has a violent nature, which can actually be useful to us.”
“Young Master…”
Lady Jin Hua frowned, “Are you thinking of… No, absolutely not. It’s too risky. If sothing goes wrong, how can I explain it to the master!”
“Rest assured, Gongyang Yan has already been held up by the Forest Badger Clan. Now is the ti for us to dissolve their ranks from the inside!”
The Silver Fox Young Master’s expression showed pain, “The White Sheep Demon King keeps expanding, shrinking our clan’s living space, clearly forcing us to find our own way to survive. If we can’t tear a piece of fat from the Chaotic Sect, what awaits our Silver Fox Clan is only extinction. Grandmother, no need to say more, my mind is made up!”
Lady Jin Hua sighed deeply and said no more.
…
Several days later.
A fierce battle unfolded in the woods.
A third-tier early-stage demon led the Fox Clan in a fierce attack but fell into a trap set by the Chaotic Sect. ng Xiao, leading many Foundation Establishnt cultivators and supported by arrays, continuously counterattacked and finally achieved great rit!
“Crack!”
After a light sound, ng Xiao’s magic sword chopped off the head of that third-tier demon.
“Finally…”
His eyes shining with excitent, he raised the huge head of the demon high and laughed loudly, “Brothers, look, the legendary third-tier demon is no match at all!”
“Great!”
People from the Chaotic Sect cheered.
“Good job, Junior Brother ng, killing this demon will surely terrify these beastly demons!”
“That’s right, this demon was likely the leader of this beast wave. With it killed, the beast wave will surely retreat.”
Far away, a group of demons trembled and whimpered.
Many demons, seeing the head of the third-tier demon being raised high by the Human Clan Cultivators, cried out and their fur bristled, soon retreating in waves.
“They really are retreating, these brutes!”
Everyone laughed.
In the wind, ng Xiao also laughed wildly, but in a mont, his eyes suddenly flashed brilliantly, and in the blink of an eye, his pupils also turned into silver vertical pupils!
…
Deep into the night.
ng Xiao led the cultivators of the Chaotic Sect back.
From afar, he cast a fierce glance towards a continuous stretch of shacks and tents.
Inside the tent, Ning Daoran frowned and continued studying the Array Path.
In the following days.
The intensity of the beast waves noticeably decreased, yet the losses on the Chaotic Sect’s side increased.
“Martial Uncle Ning.”
Xiao Ze, holding a ledger, frowned, “Last night, the body of Sun Yuan, Martial Uncle Sun, was found in the mountains behind, his throat bitten off. It’s suspected to be the work of a demon.”
“And the day before yesterday, Martial Uncle Zhuo Miao was also killed by a demon in the middle of the night.”
Another Qi Refinent disciple said, “But strangely, the Cold Que Wushang Array showed no disturbance at all. How could those demons enter the grand array to kill people, and even target mid-stage Foundation Establishnt Elders?”
“Indeed baffling.”
Xiao Ze said, “Martial Uncle Ning, could it be that our Cold Que Wushang Array is not perfect, and these demons are killing from beneath the ground?”
“Impossible.”
Ning Daoran shook his head, “The Cold Que Wushang Array was personally set up by us, and the underground also has a complete prohibition. Those demons, no matter how powerful, can’t silently pass through the array.”
“This is strange.” Xiao Ze frowned deeply.
Just then, in the early morning mist, figures walked out of the tents, ready to start a new day of battling demons.
Among them, ng Xiao walked at the forefront.
‘Sothing is off.’
Ning Daoran squinted his eyes, and in an instant, his pupils turned into a silver kaleidoscope, seeing another scene.
Behind ng Xiao, a silver demon fox stood up on two legs, maintaining the sa pace as ng Xiao walked forward, and in a blink, both soared into the sky and tunneled away.
‘Understood.’
Ning Daoran squinted, the whole truth clear.
That was a Golden Core early-stage Silver Fox that had possessed ng Xiao, secretly infiltrating the Chaotic Sect’s camp with the intent to thodically kill every single Foundation Establishnt cultivator at the frontline, wasn’t it?
He furrowed his brow, resolutely deciding it was ti to act for the Sect!
…
Deep into the night.
Inside a tent, a Class A Paperfolk transford into Ning Daoran’s likeness, sitting inside the tent and ditating.
anwhile, his true body had already transford into a wisp of Spiritual Power and seeped into the ground, intently watching a distant tent.
In the dead of the night, the other party could no longer contain his patience.
“Rustle!”
The tent curtain was lifted, and ng Xiao, with a fierce expression, walked out.
He strode directly towards a solitary tent, which housed Lin Sheng.
“This isn’t good…”
Ning Daoran took a deep breath, instantly pulling out the Big Green Dragon from his Storage Bag and transmitted, “Old Lu, no need for courtesy later, hit him hard. Our dear Junior Brother ng has been possessed, and at this point, it’s just a body without a soul, there’s no harm in killing him.”
“Ao!”
Big Stupid Deer cried out, then charged directly towards ng Xiao from beneath the ground and suddenly erupted, his antlers brutally hitting ng Xiao’s lower body!
“Ah~~~”
ng Xiao suddenly jumped up, clutching his buttocks, his silver vertical pupils flashing. It hurt like hell!
