Because it was so busy in the small courtyard, Jiang Xiaobai had already been pushed out. He was now squatting with Ao Cheng on a pile of dirt not far from the yard, both of them head down, not saying a word.
Ao Cheng’s shaking body revealed his anger quite clearly.
At this moment, a figure approached Jiang Xiaobai.
“Xiaobai, tonight you will go to Five Lotus Mountain with the others to collect medicine.”
“Huh? Me?”
Jiang Xiaobai pointed to himself.
Going to Five Lotus Mountain to gather herbs was obviously for Ao Yan’s enigmatic wound, but Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t figure out what he could possibly do to help.
Could it be that Ao Cheng was planning to sell him out?
He immediately glared at Ao Cheng, who also looked baffled and clueless.
“I have an old friend on Five Lotus Mountain who will cleanse your bone marrow and enhance your cultivation aptitude on this trip.”
“Oh. ”
So that’s the deal…
By evening, the team from the Dragon Valley had already set off. Ao Yan, looking weak, was sitting inside a flying artifact, surrounded by the strong fighters of the Dragon Valley.
The squad was not big, stealthy.
The third elder was among them, but at the back of the group, while Jiang Xiaobai was with him, trying to amuse Linger while admiring the scenery during their terribly dull trip.
Going to Five Lotus Mountain to collect herbs was part of the plan.
And from decision to implementation, it all happened very quickly, in less than two hours.
Virtually no one in the Dragon Valley knew about Ao Yan’s departure at this moment. Obviously, the aim was to keep the information secret and avoid a surprise attack like the one earlier today.
From many aspects, all of this seemed to be very well premeditated. If the person who had attacked Ao Yan in hiding was not stupid, they ought to know there was something fishy going on.
Jiang Xiaobai was not stupid either. He had two objectives for this plan.
If he could use Ao Yan’s possible incurable wounds to lure out the figure lurking behind the scenes, it would undoubtedly be a good thing. The adversary wouldn’t possibly miss such an opportunity.
Even if this failed to lure them out, it would still prove one thing – the enemy’s objective was not to block the growth of the dragon clan, but simply to eliminate Ao Yan.
There are many forces capable of the former, primarily those who do not want to see the dragon clan grow along with Ao Yan.
The latter is different. Compared to the former, the scope of the enemy shrunk significantly.
If the ambush failed to lure them out this time, Jiang Xiaobai had many backup plans.
Moreover, Jiang Xiaobai had prepared pills that could impact realities, creating confusion. No matter who the spies were inside Dragon Valley, this would be enough to confuse them.
Now, all he needed to do was wait.
Not long after the Dragon Valley team had departed, five figures appeared in the rear of the team, unnoticed by anyone.
“Is this for real?”
One of them exclaimed in surprise. “I have a feeling this is a trap set by the Dragon Valley.”
“Even if this isn’t real, this is still a golden opportunity. There aren’t many experts dispatched by the Dragon Valley, and they are outside!”
“We must eliminate Ao Yan. If we can’t kill her, at least we need to incapacitate her.”
“Indeed! Let’s face it, if she continues to grow like this, Dragon Valley is set to become the next most powerful force. You all understand how domineering Dragon Valley was back in its prime.”
Listening to the dialogue between the five men, it was quite refreshing to find out that they were not from the same force.
After a lengthy discussion, the five agreed they must strike during this opportunity.
However, they weren’t fools. What if this was really a trap set by the Dragon Valley?
As such, the five of them quickly headed a little ahead of Five Lotus Mountain and began to set up an array.
Inside the flying artifact, Ao Yan and Ao Cheng were whispering to each other.
“Are you sure this will work? The enemy is not a fool.”
Ao Yan frowned. “I’m starting to regret it. How did I agree to your plan?”
Ao Cheng was also unsure, and could only reply, “Better to try something than just sit around doing nothing.” “Well, if it goes wrong, you’re shouldering the blame.” “Why should I be the one to do it!”
“I’m your sister! That’s more than enough reason.”
“You!”
Ao Cheng’s eyes bulged out, left speechless by Ao Yan’s rebuttal.
About to see Ao Yan’s smiling face, he could only swallow his anger.
Afterwards, he began to feel anxious. If the plan doesn’t work, Ao Wan would probably be skinning him.
Just as Ao Cheng was getting worried, the flying artifact suddenly began to shake violently. At the same time, there was tremendous commotion outside.
Without a moment’s hesitation, Ao Cheng rushed outside, only to see a spatial prison appearing, enveloping the entire team.
Details below, it was an array!
They had indeed been attacked, but at the moment they hadn’t seen so much as a shadow of the enemy. What welcomed them was a trapping array combined with a killing array!
But that was enough!
Excitement flashed in Ao Cheng’s eyes as a compass appeared in his hands. He then began to urge it to the best of his ability.
This was a treasure of the Dragon Valley, a ground level artifact. Its primary function was to break arrays!
The rank of the array in front of him was not low, but it couldn’t compete with the compass in Ao Cheng’s hand.
In just an instant, the array was broken!
Simultaneously, over a dozen figures attacked from all directions. These men went straight towards the dense forest below. In an instant, the sound of fierce fighting could be heard.
The five men who planned to attack after setting up array were utterly stupefied.
Damn! They fell right into a trap!
However, what was confusing was that they had trailed them all the way without detecting the presence of any powerful forces. This was the reason they dared to act.
So, where did these men come from?
As a matter of fact, Jiang Xiaobai had planned everything way beforehand. He knew if there were a lot of experts following them, the opponents would definitely not make a move. Therefore, he had arranged for people to be ready beforehand near Five Lotus Mountain.
It was certain that the opponents had spies in Dragon Valley, and they knew they were heading to Five Lotus Mountain.
At the same time, Jiang Xiaobai also predicted that the enemies would most likely use an array to test them, which explained the previous scene when Ao Cheng destroyed the array.
This object was borrowed from the Dragon Clan’s treasure vault.
Therefore, Jiang Xiaobai had planned everything in advance. As long as the enemies dared to act, it would mark their end.
The two most critical points in this plan were the possibility of Ao Yan having incurable wounds and their prompt departure.
This way, no one in the dark would have time to mobilize many powerful forces. And the haste in which the plan was executed meant there would be no time for a thorough and detailed investigation.
At the instance they were attacked, Jiang Xiaobai knew he had guessed right.
Less than half an hour later, the battle in the dense forest below had ended.
Three out of the five men were dead, and the other two were severely injured.
The injured were taken as prisoners and brought to the others.
The hidden experts ready for ambushes were among the strongest in the Dragon Valley. One of them was a Unity Period expert, Ao Konghai!
Having secured two prisoners, naturally, they had to treat them well. At the very least, they should let them experience the warmth of the Dragon Valley.
Among the entire team, except for the few who were in on the plan, everyone else was completely bewildered.
Among them, Jiang Xiaobai also convincingly acted his part, much to the admiration of Ao Cheng, who was secretly observing him.
“Anyway, we’re near Five Lotus Mountain. It would be impolite not to pay a visit.”
The elder uncle chuckled, and the group didn’t stop. They continued to head towards Five Lotus Mountain..
