C1895 Ambush
But he had to make a name for himself and compete with the Ten Thousand Martial Artist's Guild.
Alchemist Dugu Shengming finally walked out of his room.
"I feel like there are fewer people around me. What is everyone busy with?"
"Reporting to Lord Dugu, a few experts have already headed to the Azure Mountain Range, preparing to assassinate Mu Chen and Lin Yuyan."
"Oh, that's an interesting thing."
Dugu Shengming had completely recovered from the physical injuries he had received.
Under the care of the unique pill.
The most difficult to deal with fracture was nothing difficult at all.
As for the condition of his muscles being torn apart and his internal organs being shaken, it was completely cured.
"Lord Dugu, are you planning to take revenge yourself?"
"Mu Chen and his wife are going to the Azure Mountain Range to pay their respects to their ancestors. In a sparsely populated environment, there is no response at all. It is indeed a great opportunity."
As the saying goes, one must learn from the mistakes.
Dugu Shengming was not a boorish person. He knew that his specialty was refining pills. It was better for him to let the more professional people handle the matter of fighting and killing.
He shook his head slightly and took out a small bottle.
"Give these pills to the person on the mission."
"Consume it during a battle. It can increase your combat power by several times in a short period of time."
"Ordinary targets are nothing to worry about. I am just worried that Mu Chen will summon the fusion demonic beast."
With several times the increase in combat strength, would he be able to deal with the super divine body of the fused Demonic Beast?
No one had an accurate answer.
The last battle was too short. In just a few rounds, Dugu Shengming had been defeated. He didn't even know the opponent's strength and attributes.
"It's better to be prepared."
"Even if the fusion demonic beast appears, it can still capture Mu Chen and Lin Yuyan as hostages. They won't have a chance to turn the tables at all."
"Yes sir!"
The actions of the Three-eyed Flame in the forest were completely noticed by the Mutated Iron Wire Worm.
These people set up a defensive formation on a small hill on the east side of the ancestral hall to hide their aura.
The lineup of six hired martial artists was quite luxurious.
The mutated Iron Wire Worm slowly wriggled in the soil like a giant silver worm.
The slower it moved, the less attention it would attract.
"This bunch of dogs who don't know the difference between life and death must be killed."
"Throw the ancient saplings out and regrow them when they're close to the hill."
"There's too many of them."
"If they split up, the speed of the ancient saplings will be the biggest flaw."
The mutated Iron Thread Worm was slightly worried.
As an earth-elemental beast, it didn't have the advantage of flying, so it couldn't chase after its target.
"The enemy has decided to complete this mission. They won't be scared off just because of a small disturbance."
"The battle is inevitable."
"Okay."
Alright. The Iron Thread Worms crawled to the outside of the hill, and the saplings also blended into the other plants.
When the glow of the sunset had completely disappeared, darkness quickly covered the entire mountain range.
Hiding didn't mean that the enemies would crawl into the mound and not move. On the contrary, they were using a defensive array to conceal this aura, so they let down their guard.
They sat on the ground and chatted while drinking.
There were still a few days before the big day of the Lin Family's ancestral worship, so there was no need to make the atmosphere tense in advance.
There were two hired martial artists standing at the entrance of the cove. No matter if it was day or night, there would be people taking turns to stand guard.
"Let's start with them."
"Instant kill two of them. We'll find a chance to deal with the rest."
The mutated Iron Wire Worm wriggled towards the enemy from a few meters below the ground.
Several brown tree roots also crawled out from under their feet.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh..."
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The tree roots were thrown out of the soil at lightning speed and tied up the heads of the two men.
Just when they were about to scream and struggle.
The roots extended out many more branches and stuffed them into their mouths.
The ground beneath their feet became extremely soft. It was as if they had fallen into quicksand and were swallowed by the mutated Iron Wire Worms.
The entire process took less than three seconds.
It was clean and direct without any hesitation.
This was the battle between experts.
A broken station could decide one's fate.
"The tree roots are too solid. Will they suffocate to death?"
"What's the point of Master keeping these guys alive?"
"Let the ancient plants directly absorb the spiritual energy in their bodies and grow stronger."
"Their identities are very sensitive. If they make a big deal out of the corpses and make the people of the union think that it's the actions of the warriors of the Undead Race, things will become quite lively."2
Mu Chen wanted to cause an intense conflict between the two sides to achieve the goal of borrowing someone else's knife to kill.
The brown root pierced through his mouth into his internal organs. This way of dying was like ten thousand arrows piercing his heart.
After that, Mu Chen used metal powder to tightly wrap the two of them so that they could be preserved for a longer time.
Three-eyed Lie was the first to feel that something was wrong.
Since the thousand mile sound transmission had lost its effect, why didn't the two members patrolling at the entrance of the cove reply?
"Let's go take a look together. Could it be that both of them are slacking off?"
"Lord Three-Eye, don't worry. Who would dare to attack us after eating a leopard?"
"Besides, the hiding place is very well hidden. Outsiders will never find it."
The blind confidence did not last long. When the four of them arrived at the entrance, they were all dumbfounded.
The patrollers were nowhere to be found, and there was no sign of a battle. It was as if they had mysteriously vanished.
The ancient plants had covered the ground, so it did not look out of place at all.
The mutated Iron Thread Worms had already gone a hundred meters away, so they wouldn't be detected by the mental energy released by these people.
"Why is it like this?"
"There must be an enemy hiding in the dark, making an enemy out of us."
"Other than the Undead warriors, there is no one else on Earth who can quietly kill our team members."
"Even if Mu Chen summons the fusion demonic beast, it will still cause a lot of trouble during the battle."
Three-eyed Lie's expression became even more nervous.
It was not a problem for these people to be tyrannical on Earth, but it did not mean that they were the strongest existences in the Heaven Realm.
"Lord Three-eyed, do you mean that the experts of the Celestial World have also arrived here?"
"Very likely."
... "Don't forget that we just had a war of words with Wan Mingzhu a few days ago, so it's reasonable for her to bring reinforcements."
The number of guilds in the Alliance exceeded ten thousand, but each of them had their own experts.
No one could guarantee which side would win the battle.
Three Eyed Divine Emperor also jumped onto the highest tree with his followers and inspected every inch of the ground.
The atmosphere fell into silence.
