Chapter 208: Be Careful

After being reprimanded by Xiong Batian, the Bearman team immediately cowered. Although he did not know what was going on, his boss’s words made sense. Moreover, it was not a good idea for his boss to be trapped inside now.

“What are you waiting for? Hurry up and make way for Boss. What are you doing!”

The captain flared up at his subordinates, making them even more confused. Originally, it had nothing to do with them. They were guarding here well. In the end, they were first scolded by their lord, then by their captain. However, although they were angry, they could only guard here first. The captain had the right to scold them if he wanted to.

The array formation under their feet slowly rotated at a small angle. Immediately after, the pillar of light from the sky revealed a small door the height of a person and appeared in front of Xiong Batian.

Xiong Batian looked at the door and nodded at them in satisfaction. “Look at how dawdling you guys are. You guys are so slow. Aren’t you letting the other clansmen see a joke?”

As soon as Xiong Batian entered, he scolded the captain again. The captain did not dare to retort and nodded repeatedly.

“You’re right, my lord. I’m not familiar with my subordinates yet. We’re a newly formed team, so there are still some problems with communication. Let me communicate with them properly again. It won’t delay anything.”

Xiong Batian looked very angry, but there was nothing he could do. He snorted coldly and said to him, “Fortunately, I’m here this time. If it were the Patriarch of another clan, you would’ve really embarrassed us!”

“My lord, you’re right. We…”

“Forget it, cut the crap. I still have something to do. Stay here and guard it. Don’t let anyone in!”

“Don’t worry, with us guarding here, even a fly won’t be able to fly out. Nothing will happen!”

Xiong Batian looked at him with a smile in his eyes. However, his expression was hidden very deeply. These fellows had their heads lowered and did not dare to look at Xiong Batian, so no one noticed.

Xiong Batian coughed lightly and said, “I know it’s been very difficult for you to guard here. When you return, you’ll be heavily rewarded. However, you have to do your part now, do you hear me?”

“Thank you, my lord!”

As Xiong Batian spoke, he left the array with his subordinates and went outside.

After seeing Xiong Batian leave, the guard team finally heaved a sigh of relief.

“How unlucky. On the first day we came out to do this, we encountered His Lordship coming out to inspect. We were caught and scolded.”

“Cut the crap. His Lordship hasn’t gone far. His ears are very good. If he hears us, we won’t have a good time.”

They discussed softly. After the captain respectfully watched Xiong Batian leave, he turned around and scolded them.

“I told you to keep your spirits up and guard here properly, but you didn’t listen. You let His Lordship see all our ugly states. Do you know why His Lordship said that just now?”

These lackeys returned to their bitter expressions. All of them felt as uncomfortable as if they had eaten flies.

“Boss, how would we know?”

“You don’t know? It’s precisely because you didn’t put your attention on the formation at all that you let your essence, energy, and spirit leak out. How wise is His Lordship to be able to sense it directly?”

They were speechless and explained, “But Boss, we’ve really tried our best. We didn’t relax at all.”

“Oh, you still dare to talk back? Even His Lordship can tell that, yet you still dare to talk back to me! Are you treating me as a fool?”

Li Yuanqing was no longer in the mood to care about the argument of these people behind him. After leaving the array formation with the Blood Vine, he found a random mountain outside and landed, transforming into his appearance again.

Just now, he had only used a small disguise technique and casually fooled these people. They did not even notice anything at all.

The Blood Vine said respectfully to Li Yuanqing.

“Master, you’re too powerful. Generally speaking, there’s no way to crack this array. However, I didn’t expect you to be able to find such a method and escape easily. You’re really amazing!”

How would he know that Li Yuanqing just did not want to destroy this thing?

“Can I receive those messages from you now?”

After this array formation was erected, the connection between the Blood Vine and the outside disappeared. As a result, the seeds outside could not send back any useful information.

Li Yuanqing did not know where these lords were now. It was better to let the Blood Vine investigate their location first.

The Blood Vine sat on the ground and sensed carefully for a while with a happy expression. “Master, I can sense it!”

“Check and see where they are now.”

There were four walls in the four directions of Ping City. Behind them was a commander’s headquarters. There was a lord stationed on each mountain. Their clansmen were all stationed here, and the cave in the middle was where their lord lived.

The middle of the huge mountain range had been dug out. On a huge array in the middle of the mountain, there were dense words engraved on it. The array emitted a strong light, as if it was imprinted with the wall outside.

In the center of the array, a huge elephant stood there. However, the elephant suddenly opened its eyes.

The elephant looked at an inconspicuous corner in the mountainside. This corner was filled with shattered stones, but there was nothing particularly outstanding.

As soon as the Blood Vine extended its vines out, it immediately attracted the attention of the giant elephant. It had completely retracted its vines and sealed the aura on them, afraid that anyone would discover it.

Da Mingkong looked in that direction silently for a while. Suddenly, his body emitted a buzzing sound.

“There are strange spiritual energy fluctuations outside. Is it possible for human reinforcements to arrive?”

Just as he finished speaking, three illusions suddenly appeared above his head.

The four of them had established a powerful connection and could contact each other at any time. The other four lords were also in a cave similar to this cave.

Shi Fengchun asked carefully, “Could there be a problem? Logically speaking, Ping City has already been surrounded by us. They’re already trapped and can’t send out the news, let alone someone who dares to come and be their reinforcements.”

Da Mingkong spoke very steadily, still firm in his senses. “I did sense the spiritual energy fluctuations of the humans just now. I think there must be humans outside. Even if they’re not their reinforcements, we have to find out why this person can be under our noses.”

“That’s impossible. How can a human be so capable as to run under your nose and do something?” Xiong Batian looked at Da Mingkong carefully.

Lang Duankong echoed, “That’s right. With your strength, these humans are all ant-like existences. What ability do they have to be able to get here? Moreover, if someone was really here, we would have already captured them. I wonder if you’re hallucinating from overwork?”

Da Mingkong did not answer. Shi Fengchun said to the two of them warily, “Da Mingkong’s senses won’t be wrong.”

“That’s true. I’m just asking if it’s possible. However, if there are indeed humans, I’ll order my subordinates to pay attention so that we can quickly find this person. I’m a little worried.”

The others felt that it was nothing, but Da Mingkong suddenly said this. What he said just now was already shocking enough, but now, it was even stranger.

Xiong Batian asked in confusion, “Senior, we’ve already surrounded these humans. It’s only a matter of time before we take them down. But why are you worried?”

Da Mingkong said to them with a heavy expression, “I can’t say why, but I keep having this worry in my heart. I’m afraid it’s not a good omen.”

“Could it be that our operation won’t go especially smoothly?” Lang Duankong asked curiously.

Xiong Batian hurriedly said, “How is that possible? The trap we set up now is already foolproof. There’s definitely no mistake. Even if they have wings, they won’t be able to fly out. There won’t be any mistakes!”

Shi Fengchun said worriedly, “Senior’s senses have always been very accurate, and there’s always a basis for his predictions. Can we really not take down this small Ping City with our huge probability of victory this time?”

“We can’t say that either. Rong City has already been overturned. From the looks of it, these humans are not that simple. We can’t let our guard down.”

The four lords had originally felt that they were very confident. They did not know what to do now that such a thing had suddenly happened. Initially, they thought that they were already cautious enough and that nothing would go wrong. However, Da Mingkong had always been good at predictions. His predictive ability was very top-notch. He was definitely the top prophet among the demons. This was also the reason why the few of them had to be so cautious when Da Mingkong only had a bad premonition.

“There shouldn’t be any problems with this array formation, right?” Da Mingkong asked the others.

“No problem.”

“Nothing will go wrong on our side. Everything will go according to the normal plan.”

“Everything is normal on my side too.”

Da Mingkong nodded and instructed them, “Go and check again. It’s best to personally check the situation of the border array formation you belong to. You must ensure that nothing goes wrong at the turning point!”

“Alright, let’s go now.”

The Blood Vine frowned and carefully analyzed the news that was sent back. Because Da Mingkong was too vigilant, the Blood Vine simply gave up on that side. However, the good news was that he had discovered that these people were in a meeting, so it was the same for him to obtain information from the other people.

“Master, Da Mingkong seems to have sensed something.”

“The Giant Elephant Clan?”

“The Giant Elephant Clan has always been good at divination. Their divination ability is very top-notch. Will it affect anything this time?” The Blood Vine looked at Li Yuanqing strangely. “Master, if we leave now, they wouldn’t be a threat to us. They haven’t noticed anything yet.”

“Why should we leave? We still have to walk around their lair.”

The Blood Vine hurriedly pulled Li Yuanqing back. “Master, are you joking? We’re at our best now. If we leave now, they won’t discover anything at all. However, they’ve already sent someone to check the array formation just now. When they ask, they’ll definitely discover the problem.”

Li Yuanqing had never planned to leave. He sensed carefully and found a direction. “The one closest to us is Xiong Batian.”

“Master, what exactly do you want to do? If we really go to Xiong Batian, our location will definitely be exposed. At that time, the four lords will join forces and we won’t have any chance of survival!”

“Cut the crap and come over quickly. If you’re late and you’re discovered by others, you’ll really die.”

Li Yuanqing did not say anything else. He left the small mountain and rushed towards the mountain that Xiong Batian and his clansmen had occupied.

At this moment, Xiong Batian had just left the encampment with a small group of people and was rushing towards the array formation they were guarding.

The team captain guarding the array formation was still nagging non-stop. The team members’ heads were about to explode from the captain’s endless nagging.

At this moment, the team members saw that Xiong Batian had come again. All of them lowered their heads tonight and were silent, waiting for their Lord to scold them again.

“All of you didn’t reply to me, and only knew how to hang your heads. Did you guys understand me?”

“What are you doing?”

Xiong Batian walked in and glared at the captain.

When the captain of the guards saw that his Lord was here again, he could not help but look tired. “My lord, why are you back? Do you have any other instructions?”

Xiong Batian looked at them in confusion. “What do you mean why am I back? When did I come here to take a look? Are you guys confused?”

The captain’s face turned red from anxiety. He stammered, “My lord, you can’t deny it. You just came and scolded us.”

“Bastard, I’ve always been guarding the encampment. When did I come here?”
