Know thyself and know thy enemy
Thousand Rain shook her head slightly to clear her mind. After finishing his reading, he walked out of the cell with a solemn expression. The guard called Third Brother was still standing there with his sword in his hand.
"Follow me, slave of the soul. From today onwards, I am your master.”Thousand Rain High Priestess said slowly, still holding her necklace.
"Master." No. 3 responded woodenly.
Thousand Rain finally put away the Soul Necklace and walked out of the room.
As for Third Brother, he followed behind Thousand Rain in a daze.
After exiting the cage, Thousand Rain found that the cell next door was actually where Draconic Seven, Wushuang Yunxia, and the others were imprisoned.
Several people were locked up in a small room, making it seem extremely crowded.
"Priest, why are you here?”Draconic Seven asked in surprise.
"Let's talk outside." Thousand Rain Priestess turned to the Third Prince behind her and said,""Split the cell door and open the iron chains on their bodies.”
"..." No. 3 did not answer. Instead, he cut the wooden fence with his sword and then used his greatsword to cut off the handcuffs on Long Qi and the others.
This strange scene made Long Qi and the others unable to believe it.
However, Thousand Rain was worried,"Where are Long Shu and Long Yi?"”
"Eldest Miss and Second Miss have been taken away by them.”Draconic Seven gritted his teeth.”
"Damn it!" Only then did Thousand Rain Priest notice that Long Shu and Long Yi were not in the dungeon.
"This bastard, I definitely won't trouble him.”Even the well-mannered Thousand Rain turned pale. When they thought about the sisters 'current predicament, Thousand Rain and Draconic Seven's hearts burned with anxiety.
The two girls were rare beauties in the world. There was probably no man in the world who would not be tempted by them. If this group of people coveted their beauty, the consequences would be unimaginable.
No matter what, he could not let such a thing happen.
"Listen, we have to get them out.”" Now, listen to my plan," Thousand Rain said.”
"Everyone, get ready to move." the white flood dragon said and ordered Shen Chuan at the same time.
The night was as cold as water. In the dark night, a blurry figure floated to the corner of the house like a ghost. They were Qingshan and Shen Chuan.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy will win a hundred battles. Green Mountain didn't know much about the situation in the house, so the most important thing now was to capture one alive.
To Green Mountain and Shen Chuan, this was nothing. Qingshan easily climbed over the courtyard wall, then carefully crouched down and started to search for a target.
"Old Seven, I need to go to the toilet."
"Seriously, how many times do you have to relieve yourself in one night? Don't tell me you have kidney deficiency.”
"You're the one who's weak." The guard named Old Seven cursed and turned into a corner.
However, before he could take out his weapon.
He felt a black shadow in front of him, and then his head was heavily hit.
"F * ck, it's Sap. Who's so wicked?”This was the last thought that came to Seventh Brother's mind before he lost consciousness.
It was only 20 minutes later when he returned to the forest.
"Young hero of Green Mountain, you're not slow.”The white flood dragon chuckled.
"Looks like you've done this before.”Shen Chuan revealed a strange smile.
"It was just luck." He threw Old Seventh on the ground like a dead pig."The rest is up to you." Qingshan said to Shen Chuan.
"Bang." The intense pain woke Old Seven up from his coma.
However, when he opened his eyes, he saw a pair of cold eyes. Around him were more than 600 strong warriors.
"You. You guys." Seventh Brother was shocked. Even a fool would know what had happened.
"I ask, you answer." Kamikawa was an expert in extorting confessions through torture."If you dare to play tricks, I will make you wish you were dead.”
"..." Old Seven's face was ashen, but he knew that resisting now was definitely courting death.
Ten minutes later. The enemy's information was completely grasped. At the same time, it also proved that Qingshan's deduction was completely correct. Long Pan, Long Shu, and Wu Shuang were all captured by them and locked up in the mansion.
"The leader is called Lanchi." " I heard that he is the Great Swordsman Xi Huangjin, a subordinate of King Qi. He is a disciple of the Red Moon Sword Sect. His strength is unfathomable. The other three are also level 30 experts.”
"I've heard of these three brothers. They're all cunning people who do all kinds of evil.”"You actually provoked such a troublesome opponent," the white flood dragon said in surprise.”
Long Biao and Long Meng felt uneasy. It seemed that they had finally found out the identity of their enemy. Originally, Long Biao and Long Meng had tried their best to hide it because they didn't want Shen Chuan and the White Flood Dragon to find out. They were afraid that they would retreat because of King Qi's power.
Looking at Long Biao and Long Meng's expressions, Qing Shan also saw some signs and couldn't help but feel slightly angry. These two people weren't honest enough.
This made Qing Shan feel a little guilty towards Shen Chuan and the white flood dragon."So it was King Qi's men who kidnapped Wushuang and the others.”Then, Qingshan turned to Shen Chuan and the white flood dragon and said,""I'm sorry, but I've only just learned that the White Flood Dragon City Lord is an official, and Elder Shen Chuan is a member of the Shenfeng Sword Sect. Both of them have large families and businesses, so there's no need for us to go against King Qi and rescue them.”
Qing Shan's words made Shen Chuan and the white flood dragon slightly stunned. In fact, Shen Chuan and the white flood dragon weren't surprised after knowing Qing Shan's identity. However, Qingshan's words made the two of them feel that this young man was not bad. He knew how to consider others.
Of course, Qingshan's straightforward words made them feel embarrassed, and they were stunned on the spot.
"Although King Qi is powerful," Shen Chuan sighed." But our Divine Peak Sword Sect doesn't have to be afraid of them. In fact, we don't have a good relationship with King Qi. Moreover, our Divine Peak Sword Sect and the Scarlet Moon Sword Sect are mortal enemies, so it's no big deal even if we offend King Qi.”
"It's true that I, White Flood Dragon, am an official, but my big brother, Bai Zhan, has always been sworn enemies with King Qi in the court. If I had known that the person who attacked this time was King Qi's man, I would have never been polite to him. Not only have I helped you, but I've also created some trouble for King Qi.”
Qingshan couldn't help but be stunned. The outcome of the matter was actually like this.
Long Biao and Long Meng were overjoyed.
"The most important thing now is how to deal with that Lanchi.”"He's a gold master swordsman. Even ten black iron master swordsmen might not be his match," said Shen Chuan.”
"This time, we can only use our wits against the enemy, not our strength.”The white flood dragon also looked troubled.
For a moment, the scene was extremely quiet.
The surrounding people also subconsciously looked at Green Mountain.
He had never experienced how strong a golden master swordsman was, but he knew how strong Shen Chuan was. Even ten Shen Chuan couldn't deal with a golden master swordsman. The difference in strength was not something that could be made up by imagination.
But was there really no chance?
There might not be one.
Qingshan subconsciously looked up at the night sky.
With the night vision mode activated, even the night was no different from day in the eyes of the Green Mountain Sect. Therefore, all he could see in the sky were layers of blurry black clouds.
Qingshan subconsciously gripped his sword tightly. However, when he gripped the hilt of the Xuan Yuan Heavy Sword, the black blade of the sword made Qingshan's eyes light up.
Habit really came naturally. With Lan Yue's help, he could see anything in the dark, but the other party did not. No matter how strong he was, he was still blind in the dark.
Night Battle. That's right. His advantage was the night battle. With the help of Blue Moon's night vision system, he had nothing to fear in the dark.
Moreover, his attack style was completely different from this Big 6's. It relied purely on the strength of his muscles and bones.
Even if the opponent was a golden grand swordmaster, no matter how strong his senses were, he would not be able to determine his location through the fluctuation of his combat qi.
Under such circumstances, he was basically invincible.
Qingshan suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and said, Leave the Golden Swordsman to me. All you need to do is find the others who are imprisoned.”
"What?" Shen Chuan and the white flood dragon couldn't believe what they heard.
"Don't force yourself." "You should know very well how strong a Golden Great Swordsman is. Let's think about it carefully."”
"Of course I know." "But I have absolute confidence," Qingshan said confidently.”
"Absolutely." " This is no joke." Shen Chuan's face was gloomy." One mistake and you'll lose your life."”
"Even a golden grand swordmaster might not be able to do anything to me, let alone a golden grand swordmaster like him," said Qingshan proudly.”Qing Shan added in his heart that of course, it had to be done in the dark of the night.
"Golden grand swordmaster." Everyone was stunned. However, under the light of the fire, Qingshan's calm and shocked eyes made everyone feel his incomparable confidence and power.
He should really have a way.
For some reason, neither Shen Chuan nor the white flood dragon believed that Qing Shan was lying. It was because he had shocked the crowd too much.
Without any evidence, he could clearly determine Long Pan's location and lead everyone to this place.
Once again, Shen Chuan recalled the aura that had once frightened him.
His intuition told him that this young man was extremely daring, but he was definitely not a reckless person.
Perhaps he really did have such a method.
"However, to save our people, this plan has to be changed at the last minute.”Qingshan said.
"How?" When it came to planning, Long Biao and Long Meng were very confident in Green Mountain. They always felt that his brain was more useful than the others, and it seemed that no problem could stump him.
"Come here." Qingshan drew a strategic map on the ground and began to explain his strategy.
This was a simple and unadorned hall, indicating that the original owner did not advocate luxury or that his background was not high.
There were only a few simple murals around. However, it was already very good to find such a place to stay during the journey.
Four muscular men sat in the middle of the hall with their golden sabers, surrounded by four cold-looking female warriors in black armor. At this moment, he looked at Long Shu in surprise.
Long Shu's veil had been removed. She didn't want this to happen, but unfortunately, she had no choice but to expose her peerless beauty to others.
Exclamations came from the surroundings, and even their breathing became heavy.
"She is indeed a rare beauty in the world.”A cold and emotionless voice seemed to come from the void. It was sinister and cold, but it also contained an unconcealable joy.
The owner of the voice was a tall and thin man. Hawkeye's face was pale and his voice was cold. His body was filled with an icy cold aura, making the entire stone room seem like a cold ice cellar. One look and one could tell that he was a ruthless and decisive person.
Long Shu was no stranger to this man, because this man was the one who had attacked them three nights ago. He was the leader of the group of assassins, and he had a strange sword technique. Even twelve powerful Divine Sword Guards were defeated by him in less than ten moves.
After being captured, this group of people traveled day and night until they finally chose this courtyard to correct.
Perhaps they also wanted to take advantage of this rare free time to have a good talk with him.
Judging from the situation in the past three days, these people seemed to only want to capture him and bring him somewhere.
"Who exactly are you? Why did you capture me?”Being in a desperate situation made Long Shu calm and composed.
"Miss Long, don't worry. We just want you to cooperate with us.”The cold-looking man was still expressionless, and his pale face was very stiff, like a zombie that had jumped out of a coffin.
There were three men beside him. They were obviously three brothers. They were all muscular, with thick eyebrows, big eyes, fierce faces, and bald heads. They looked like three great villains. One look and one would think that they were not good people. It was the group of thieves who had intercepted them on the river before.
"Tell me your identity and background?”Long Shu said in a deep voice.
"I'm Flying in the Sand." One of the baldies introduced himself,""The Silver Sword Commander of sunrise City's King Qi. These two are my brothers, Shalihan and Shalihuang.”
"My name is Lanchi." "He's the Golden Sword Commander of the sunrise City's King Qi," the pale-faced man replied.”
"sunrise City?" Long Shu was shocked and his face darkened.""You really are King Qi's men."
"Not bad." Lan Chi said," We had no choice but to use this method to invite you. His Highness King Qi wishes to meet you, so we are taking you to sunrise City.”
"…" Long Shu's heart turned cold. She naturally knew what kind of person King Qi was, and she had also heard of his subordinates, Shalifei, Shalihan, and Shalihuang. These three people were all cruel and bloodthirsty villains.
This Lanchi Empire was famous for being ruthless. If one fell into his hands, even death would become an extravagant hope.
"No need to waste your efforts?" Long Shu suppressed the shock in his heart and said coldly,""Even if I see him, I won't be used by him. You'd better give up on this idea.”
Lanchi still had that cold and deep expression on his face."We're not worried about this. We believe that you'll change your mind after meeting His Highness King Qi.”
"Impossible?" Long Shu said firmly.
"We'll see about this later," Lan Chi said calmly. I just wanted to give you a heads up so that you can be mentally prepared."
"..." Long Shu didn't say anything else. She knew that she was no longer able to control herself after falling into the hands of these people. However, she still had a bottom line. If her actions brought disaster to the entire family, she would rather commit suicide.
Even though she was under a lot of control, if she was determined to fight to the death, Long Shu had at least three ways to end her life in an instant.
This woman might seem gentle, but she was steely deep down. It was precisely because he had seen through her personality that King Qi had repeatedly warned her not to push her too far.
Therefore, even if these people caught Long Shu, they would not dare to act rashly against her.
His calm and resolute gaze made Lan Chi even more certain of King Qi's exhortation. However, King Qi already had a countermeasure, so Lan Chi did not panic."Once you choose to commit suicide, your subordinates, your friends, and your cute sister will all suffer a fate worse than death.”
"Before that, they will kill themselves.”" If they continue to drag out their lives," Long Shu said coldly," they don't deserve to be disciples of the Long Family. Their lives have nothing to do with me."”
"As expected of the Eldest Young Miss Long that King Qi regards highly.”The man looked surprised."You're right. If they were afraid of death, they wouldn't be worthy of becoming Long Family disciples.”At this point, the man looked calm and confident."However, your cute sister doesn't even have the chance to commit suicide now. I hope you can think about it.”
Everyone had a weakness, and Long Shu's weakness was probably his sister, whom she valued the most.
"You." Long Shu couldn't believe his eyes. He stared at the gloomy man as if he wanted to see through his soul.
"You can try if you don't believe me." "I, Lan Chi, have no less than a hundred kinds of torture and methods to make your cute sister wish she was dead," Lan Chi said calmly.”Lan Chi continued," This time, something went wrong with the escort of the dragon egg. This is enough reason for His Highness King Qi to exterminate your Long family. Do you really think that the Crown Prince will still protect your Long family after losing the dragon egg?"”
Long Shu's heart sank. Long Shu was well aware of the cruelty of these court struggles. Therefore, he would never doubt Lan Chi's words.
"In their eyes, your Long family is just a tool.”"Think about it carefully," Lan Chi said.
Long Shu's face was as cold as ice as he stared at the man in front of him, as if he wanted to see through his soul.
"I won't disturb Miss Long's rest.”"Someone, escort Miss Long back to her room."”
"Yes."
Soon, four female soldiers in black armor walked in and took Long Shu away.
"We will reach North Africa in five days.”"By then, our mission will be considered complete."”
"You guys did a good job this time.”" Long Shu and Thousand Rain have been captured intact," Lan Chi said." They'll definitely make a great contribution when they return."”
"It's all thanks to the commander's good management.”"We're just following the plan. It's not a big deal."”
"The credit goes to everyone." "Don't worry. When we return to sunrise City, I'll report this to His Highness King Qi and reward the three of you."”
