Chapter 631: Chapter 617: The Bait is Hooked
Missing the mark made the bearded man quite annoyed. He grumbled, “The scouts deserve to be dunked in pork cages. The folks are long gone, and they remain oblivious.”
On the side, Ling Bo said, “They must’ve planned to run away a long ti ago, it wasn’t a decision of today.”
The bearded man responded, “They better get out of the darkness. Otherwise, it won’t change their fate. Where else could they run to within the darkness?”
Ling Bo urged, “Boss, let’s have so food. The petty brats and so traps exhausted us for the entire day.”
“Damned small fry, never thought they would run.” The bearded man wasn’t willing to admit defeat. He had hoped for a fierce battle today, eradicating them all here.
“It seems we will have to take our ti to find opportunities. As long as they don’t escape from the dark, there’s nowhere they can hide,” Ling Bo added.
While gnawing on roast chicken, the bearded man was venting his anger, “Take everything we can carry.”
anwhile, Xiao Bai, looking rather morose, approached with his son.
The bearded man declared, “This tiny little bugger got lucky. I wonder where he’ll run next ti. He loves running, then we’ll deal with the Xue family brothers next ti. They won’t give up their territory so easily. Once any of them is wiped out, the rest are on a dead-end road.”
Xiao Bai remained silent.
Night quickly set in. They hardly knew where the New City Sect had run off to.
Jiang Zhuge and Kong Sha, leading over 700 people, had already arrived at the entrance of the dark region.
With night falling, they managed to arrive just on ti. Jiang Zhuge hurriedly had everyone eat and once done, called everyone together.
“Okay, whether we can annihilate Xiao Bai and the others depends on if we can surround Chen Jiu and compel him to ask for help,” Jiang Zhuge continued, “We’ve been in the dark region for two months. I know you all want to leave, but if we want to safely leave, we have to eliminate these people. Only by eliminating them can we have a chance to destroy the Third Demon. Otherwise, there’s nothing to talk about.
I know you’ve been longing for revenge and have been patient. To be honest, I am too. I hate to suppress my anger. At last, today is our chance.”
Jiang Zhuge spread out the map and stated, “Three locations. They only have three hundred people, but we have over seven hundred. We must not let them escape, we must force Xiao Bai to return. Ye Chen will return with Shen Bai and Zhao Kun, forming an even larger encirclent to wipe out these bastards in one swoop, not leaving one behind. Let Yuan nhai watch whether we’re easy to bully as we pay homage to the souls of the deceased in Wasteland City.”
His subordinates were shocked, as the incident of Wasteland City seed to have replayed in their minds.
Jiang Zhuge further instructed, “I won’t say too much. Everyone hold their positions and beat them hard. If anyone screws up the Sect Leader’s big plan, you will have to explain to him.”
The majority of the disciples here had lost their loved ones either in Wasteland City or Tianle City. It had been a long wait.
A loud bang echoed, Boom! Boom! Boom!
From all directions, they launched attacks towards Chen Jiu guarding the entrance.
The battle cries echoed throughout the valley. Word had it that the New City Sect was on the offensive.
Chen Jiu was taken aback, puzzled about what was happening. He didn’t believe the New City Sect would show up. He knew Xiao Bai and his team were aiming for the Bamboo Forest Valley today. The New City Sect should be too busy to deal with their own ss to show up here. He just couldn’t believe it.
But the harsh reality was undeniable. It was indeed the disciples of the New City Sect who had suddenly attacked from three directions. There was an overwhelming number of attackers and swarms of monsters. Winged Dragons filled the sky, and Fireballs fell like teors into the crowds.
Only then did they realize they were about to get surrounded.
How could there possibly be so many New City Sect disciples here? It was like a bad dream. They estimated the New City Sect only had seven or eight hundred disciples, yet there were thousands of monsters and seven or eight hundred disciples appearing here. It seed that the New City Sect disciples were all here.
Soone shouted, “We’ve been surrounded by the New City Sect!”
Chen Jiu, who assud he could enjoy a quiet night, was stunned by these sudden events. Desperately, he shouted, “Quickly send a pigeon ssage to Xiao Bai, tell them to return and rescue us.”
There were more disciples from the New City Sect. They were simply unmanageable.
Chen Jiu commanded, “Make sure to ask Xiao Bai and the others to return quickly. Tell them we’re surrounded by seven or eight hundred New City Sect disciples! They have to return quickly or we’ll be wiped out.”
Jiang Zhuge was not one to waste an opportunity. He had his side attack ruthlessly from the get-go, spilling their blood. He decided to stir them into disarray before dealing with anything else.
In a short while, they were surrounded on all sides.
However, Jiang Zhuge was aware that their target wasn’t just taking down Chen Jiu. They needed to lure the bigger fish back. That was the key. Therefore, when the ti was right, he would slacken his grip, allowing his own people to catch their breath while awaiting the even larger battle ahead.
After battling for four hours and successfully putting them under siege, Jiang Zhuge, certain that they couldn’t escape, finally relaxed. Everything was under his control. He found Kong Sha and Ming Qi and said, “Okay, we can’t do without the bait, or else how can Xiao Bai be hooked? It’s almost ti. Take turns fighting. Just ensure one thing. They absolutely cannot escape.”
Kong Sha laughed, saying, “That’s easy, I’ll make sure they won’t get any sleep but also won’t die imdiately.”
“Good to know, we can’t do without the bait.”
All that was left was to wait.
Chen Jiu wanted to break out, to fight with all his might, but he failed, leaving him no choice but to continuously ask Xiao Bai for help. He pleaded for them to hold on and not let New City Sect swallow them. They too were waiting.
Chen Jiu murmured, “Once Xiao Bai and the others return, we can eliminate these people.”
In the middle of the night, Xiao Bai received a ssage — it was a pigeon-delivered letter from Chen Jiu. When he read it, he was startled, feeling that sothing was amiss. He just realized what it was.
He urgently asked Xiao Han to wake everyone up.
The bearded man rushed over, oblivious of what had happened.
Chen Jiu said, “New City Sect has surrounded us.”
“How could this happen? We must rush back and save them,” the bearded man asked, “Is it just New City Sect?”
“Yes, just New City Sect, probably around seven hundred of them!”
“Damn, I didn’t expect them to pull this trick on us,” the bearded man said.
Ling Bo said, “It seems they had been planning this for a long ti.”
Xiao Bai nodded.
Xiao Han said, “Chen Jiu has around three hundred n, and New City Sect has over seven hundred. We must rush back, or they’ll be in danger.”
The bearded man said, “Fortunately, we are not too far from the exit, we should be able to get back in ti.”
Xiao Bai asked Xiao Han to prepare quickly, he must hurry back. He cannot let New City Sect take advantage of his absence and annihilate Chen Jiu’s n.
“These guys are really troubleso. They actually flew to the exit. Are they planning to leave the Dark Zone and return to the Wastelands now?” the bearded man added, “In that case, I’ll go with you. If we get a chance, we’ll join forces and wipe out the New City Sect.”
No sooner had he finished than one of his n ran over and said, “Not good, the Xue family brothers are attacking our base.”
The bearded man was startled and exclaid, “These spineless shrimp dare to attack our base, aren’t they afraid I’ll wipe them out?”
The subordinate said, “This is Tan Gao’s distress letter. There are a lot of attackers, they are fierce, and they are about to break through our defense.”
On hearing this, the bearded man exclaid, “These bastards, causing trouble behind my back while I’m gone. Sooner or later, I’ll deal with them!”
Ling Bo said, “They appear to be coordinating their attacks.”
Xiao Bai felt the sa way and said, “You better rush back too. We can’t let the Xue family break down the city gate because you are absent.”
The bearded man nodded and said, “These turtles, they love to jump around. They don’t dare to fight us face-to-face, they only venture out when I’m not around.”
“Alright, I won’t keep you, I have to go save them. If anything happens, we’ll get in touch later.” Xiao Bai can’t let New City Sect wipe out Chen Jiu’s n while he’s away.
Ye Chen led Shen Bai, Zhao Kun, and their teams. Combined with those junior leaders, they have eight or nine hundred n.
Zhao Kun even said, “If ti permits, we could call for more people.”
But Ye Chen was quite satisfied, tonight was crucial. His only fear was that Xiao Bai might not return, might not fall for the trap, he said, “Fellows, we must hurry, we can’t waste ti.”
They gradually approached the entrance and exit. The sounds of fighting constantly ca from Zhuge Jiang and his n, relentlessly causing trouble for Chen Jiu’s n within the encirclent.
As they got closer, Zhuge Jiang knew Ye Chen had arrived and hurried over.
Upon seeing him, Ye Chen imdiately asked, “How’s the situation? Have Xiao Bai and his n returned?”
“We’ve got it under control, they can’t get out of the encirclent. Xiao Bai and his n haven’t returned yet, but it should be any ti now,” Jiang Zhuge said. By then, it was already the third watch of the night.
Ye Chen nodded and said, “Shen Bai, Zhao Kun, you take so n and rest for two hours. Eat sothing, I think it’s going to be a while before Xiao Bai returns.”
“Understood,” Shen Bai said.
“Two hours later, I’ll co and discuss the specific plan with you,” Ye Chen then followed Zhuge Jiang and his n, leaving Li Mo with them.
“What’s the situation with our n?” Ye Chen asked.
“They are resting in shifts, two groups taking turns, so as not to give Chen Jiu and his n a chance to rest or break the siege.”
