SWNOVELXO Chapter 1424 Luo Ang Seeks Help
Yu Cheng’s tent was indeed a different world.
There were deafening shouts and cries outside the tent, but when Zhou Yiqiao entered the tent, he was blocked by a barrier.
The scene inside the tent was much larger than expected.
In the center of the tent, there is a huge magic circle.
The magic circle is in an open state, and there is still a lingering aura left over from someone activating the formation.
Zhou Yiqiao did not hesitate and mobilized his spiritual power to maintain the operation of the magic circle. He walked quickly to the center of the formation and activated the teleportation function of the formation.
The magic circle shone brightly, and Zhou Yiqiao's figure disappeared in a dazzling light.
He only felt that the space around him was distorting and his body seemed to be squeezed by an invisible force, but this feeling soon disappeared.
When Zhou Yiqiao opened his eyes again, he had arrived in a strange place.
This is a secluded valley surrounded by towering mountains, with only one path leading to the outside world.
In the center of the valley, there is a large camp, which is very busy with people coming and going.
Zhou Yiqiao concealed his breath and approached the camp silently.
He discovered that the guards here were much stricter than those at the Yu family camp, and that the strength of the monks in the camp was generally higher, far beyond the reach of the Yu family and Hou family camps.
Zhou Yiqiao released his spiritual sense and carefully hovered over the camp, avoiding possible warning formations around the camp while trying to find Yu Cheng's trace.
After some searching, he finally found Yu Cheng outside a larger tent.
Yu Cheng was talking to a woman in gorgeous clothes.
The woman had her back to Zhou Yiqiao and seemed to be wearing some magic weapon to suppress prying eyes. Not only could he not sense this person's cultivation level, even his face was very blurry.
Fortunately, this person's temperament was unique, and Zhou Yiqiao could barely confirm that this woman's identity was not simple.
He did not act rashly, but chose to observe quietly from the side.
It was not until he heard Yu Cheng call the woman "Sixteenth Princess" that Zhou Yiqiao realized that this was Luo Shanhu's camp.
Luo Shanhu seemed to be asking Yu Cheng about the situation in the Hou family camp, while Yu Cheng was explaining something in a panic.
Although Zhou Yiqiao couldn't hear the specific content, he could judge from their expressions that the news of the destruction of the Hou family camp had already spread here.
Luo Shanhu was probably not satisfied with Yu Cheng's answer, so she waved her hand and asked him to leave.
Yu Cheng retreated in a hurry as if he had been pardoned, and before he could take a few steps, the tall and strong guard beside Luo Shanhu suddenly stepped forward and held Yu Cheng down.
Yu Cheng was terrified and struggled to explain something, but the guard was merciless and hit him in the dantian with a palm, which directly destroyed his cultivation.
Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao frowned, realizing that the situation was more complicated than he had imagined.
"Could it be that Yu Cheng and Yu Poyun are not joining the same person?"
Zhou Yiqiao thought to himself.
In his opinion, since Yu Poyun was recruited by the two princesses in advance, he should be considered a confidant in their eyes.
Yu Cheng is Yu Poyun's cousin. Even if Luo Shanhu is dissatisfied with him, he should not kill him for Yu Poyun's sake.
"It is now 80% certain that Yu Poyun has taken refuge with the Third Princess Luo Ziyan."
Zhou Yiqiao kept this news in mind and decided not to move for the time being. He returned to Yu Cheng's tent and returned to Luo Lishang and Luo Qingwu along the same route.
"How's it going?"
Luo Lishang and Luo Qingwu had already dealt with all the cultivators of the Yu family. They sat in the tent, covered in blood, meditating and regulating their breathing.
Feeling the fluctuation of spiritual power in the formation around them, the two of them immediately opened their eyes and asked Zhou Yiqiao for the result in unison.
Zhou Yiqiao briefly told the two what he had seen and heard, and finally added.
"It seems that Yu Poyun and Yu Chengdu have joined different princesses. It is very likely that Yu Poyun is working for the third princess Luo Ziyan."
Luo Qingwu frowned when she heard this.
"So, there may have been cracks within the Yu family."
"exactly."
Zhou Yiqiao nodded and was about to say something when the sound transmission device in Luo Lishang's hand suddenly vibrated.
Luo Lishang raised her eyebrows slightly, and she immediately activated the sound transmission magic weapon, and an urgent message came into her ears. After listening to it, her face became solemn.
"what happened?"
Seeing this, Zhou Yiqiao immediately asked.
Luo Lishang said with a gloomy face and gritted teeth.
"The prince said that Luo Ziyan and her men somehow found his hiding place. Now Luo Ziyan's men have begun to attack the formation we set up. It won't be long before they break into the valley."
When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, his face darkened. He quickly stood up and said in a deep voice.
"Let's go. Given the prince's current condition, as long as the external restrictions are broken, there is absolutely no chance of survival."
The two of them stood up immediately, but halfway through their walk, they remembered that Luo Qingwu was still behind them, not moving at all.
"Let's go together. We'll talk about your matter later."
Zhou Yiqiao weighed the pros and cons in his mind, then waved to Luo Qingwu.
Luo Qingwu pursed her lips and nodded, then followed him.
The three of them moved quickly through the dense forest like ghosts in the night wind.
Zhou Yiqiao knew clearly that since Luo Ziyan's men had found the prince's hiding place, they must have made full preparations and this trip would be extremely dangerous.
They hurried as fast as they could and soon arrived outside the valley.
At this time, the valley's defensive formation was already crumbling, and the light above the formation flickered, obviously having been under tremendous pressure from the attack.
"Mr. Zhou, how should we act?"
Luo Lishang stared at the battlefield and asked in a low voice.
Zhou Yiqiao's eyes were as fast as lightning as he quickly analyzed the battlefield situation and said in a deep voice.
"Luo Ziyan has many people, we can't fight head-on."
"At the moment, it seems that the only way is to find a way to enter the valley between them, and then try to break out with him."
Luo Qingwu interrupted.
"I can mobilize the secret guards of my Luo family. They are all elites and can lend us a helping hand."
Zhou Yiqiao thought about it, then nodded and agreed to Luo Qingwu's suggestion.
"The switches of these formations are in our hands, which is our only advantage."
"After these people finish their attack, you two will lead the secret guards into the valley to rescue the prince. I will stay behind to cover your retreat."
When the two women heard Zhou Yiqiao's plan, they thought he was crazy.
"You...you stayed behind to cover our retreat?!"
Luo Qingwu was a straightforward person, she opened her eyes wide and started to question first.
"Don't be nagging. You know my methods. Among the three of us, I am the only one who can resist these people for a period of time."
After Zhou Yiqiao finished speaking, Luo Ziyan's subordinates also ended a round of attacks.
"Quick, get ready!"
He shouted loudly, attracting everyone's attention. Seeing this, the two women could only grit their teeth and act according to Zhou Yiqiao's plan.
"boom!"
Luo Ziyan's subordinates were still awakened by Zhou Yiqiao's shouting when they were stunned for a moment by the dull sound of the ban being suddenly lifted. Then they saw Luo Qingwu and others suddenly accelerate and rush towards the valley, and they were greatly surprised.
"No, stop them!"
Someone reacted and wanted to ask Luo Lishang and others to stop.
However, before they could take a step, they were blocked by Zhou Yiqiao.
"Everyone, your opponent is me."
Zhou Yiqiao's voice was calm and firm. The Dusk Sword in his hand emitted a faint cold light, and the tip of the sword trembled slightly, as if eager for the next battle.
Luo Ziyan's subordinates looked at each other and could see surprise and fear in each other's eyes.
They knew Zhou Yiqiao's reputation and had heard of his strength. No one dared to underestimate this seemingly young swordsman.
"Everyone come together, he is alone, we don't need to be afraid of him!"
One of the monks who seemed to be the leader shouted loudly, trying to boost morale.
However, before he finished his words, Zhou Yiqiao had already moved.
His figure disappeared like a ghost, and when he appeared again, he had already arrived in front of the leading monk.
The Dusk Sword drew a graceful arc in the air, carrying with it a surging sword intent, and went straight to the opponent's vital points.
The monk was horrified and quickly took out a magic weapon that looked like a round shield to block, but he didn't expect that Zhou Yiqiao's sword force suddenly changed and stabbed at him from an incredible angle.
He only had time to let out a brief scream before falling in a pool of blood.
Seeing this, the surrounding monks roared and attacked Zhou Yiqiao, and all kinds of spells and magic weapons rained down on him.
Zhou Yiqiao sneered, raised his hand and waved it, and the Ten Thousand Souls Banner broke out of his body, fluttering in the air.
Tens of thousands of evil souls poured out from the Ten Thousand Souls Banner one after another, each responding to the attacks from the previous one. They resolved everyone's attacks at the cost of their own annihilation.
"Do you think having more people will help?"
Zhou Yiqiao said this in a low voice, and the next moment, the evil spirit that was still alive in the air let out a shrill scream.
Their eyes glowed blood red, and they rushed towards Luo Ziyan's subordinates like black lightning.
These evil souls were all cultivators with strong cultivation bases when they were alive. After their death, they were refined by the Ten Thousand Souls Banner and then carefully refined by Zhou Yiqiao. Although they no longer have intelligence, their ferocity is even greater than before.
Although Luo Ziyan's subordinates were numerous and powerful, they were caught off guard when faced with these fearless evil spirits.
Zhou Yiqiao's body was as fast as lightning. Under the cover of the evil spirit, he rushed into the enemy camp, and the dusk sword was dancing tightly. Every time the sword flashed, someone would fall down.
He deliberately chose to get close to everyone to collect their names. His sword skills were fierce and precise. Every strike was aimed directly at the vital points, leaving no chance for the opponent to react.
Originally everyone thought that Zhou Yiqiao would have to fight back awkwardly, but unexpectedly, in just a blink of an eye, it turned into a one-sided massacre by Zhou Yiqiao!
Fortunately for these people, Zhou Yiqiao's spiritual power was limited after all. After most of the monks fell, the spiritual power in this demon's dantian finally ran out.
The group shouted and prepared to fight back, but found that everyone, including Prince Luo Ang, had left.
