Chapter 148

The Yan Clan people were furious.

When the strength of both sides is equal, unless their brains are flooded with water, they will offer the hard-earned ore and personal belongings to the other side.

So the Yan Clan people decided to force peace with strength, letting them know how powerful they were.

Both sides engaged in fierce fighting in the passage.

However, soon, the Yan Clan people dismissed the idea of forcing peace with strength and began to have the intention to retreat.

Because Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying and the others were simply a group of lunatics.

Not only were they all extremely fierce, but they were also fighting more and more fiercely, as if they had endless strength in their bodies, unlike them who had been mining hard for several days and were already physically and mentally exhausted. They originally thought that their luck was good today and they could do a big job and then return home, but they encountered such a group of fierce lunatics.

What the Yan Clan martial masters couldn't figure out was that there was a lame seventh-rank Great Wu Shi who was clearly the weakest in the other side's martial master team, yet he fought the most fiercely, specifically picking on their eighth-rank Great Martial Masters to fight. I don't know if it was because of his lame leg that his psychology was twisted and perverted.

There was also an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi whose behavior was also incomprehensible, actually not participating in the war but standing on the side watching the battle.

Where would this Yan Clan team have thought that this group of Lu Clan people had been leisurely looking for mines and digging mines during the day for the past few days, and by the time it was almost dark outside, they had already found a place to rest.

Not only that, when resting, they first ate spirit rice porridge to nourish their bodies, then the martial masters all took elixirs to supplement, while Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying practiced with spirit stones.

Their whole body's strength had nowhere to vent!

Unlike them, who had been working day and night since entering the mine cave, thinking about earning more to go back.

The two Yan Clan Qi Refinement cultivators looked at each other, and both saw a big "retreat" word written in each other's eyes.

Then, the two exploded a fierce move in unison, and then regardless of the life and death of those martial masters, they jumped and retreated rapidly toward the cave entrance not far away.

However, before they reached the cave entrance, the eighth-rank Great Wu Shi who was watching the battle on the side had already stood at the cave entrance.

"Get out!"

The two cooperated tacitly, one helping to block the Golden Swift Knife chasing from behind, and one shouted sharply at Xia Daoming, and an ice arrow had already shot through the air toward him.

"Get back and keep fighting!" Xia Daoming saw this and smiled coldly, slashing his knife casually.

A cold and sharp blade force broke through the air.

"Bang!"

The ice arrow was slashed and exploded into broken ice.

"Martial Grandmaster!"

The two Qi Refinement cultivators turned pale, revealing panic in their eyes.

They never dreamed that they thought they were hunters and the other side was prey, but it turned out that they were the prey.

Fortunately, Xia Daoming didn't intend to continue to help.

The two Qi Refinement cultivators couldn't figure out Xia Daoming's intentions, but they gritted their teeth and turned to fight Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying.

For them, no matter what Xia Daoming's intentions were, as long as he didn't make a move, it was a good thing for them.

Otherwise, a cultivator with a magic treasure joining forces with a martial grandmaster would probably kill them both soon.

Now, as long as they could seriously injure or kill Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying, and then concentrate their strength to deal with Xia Daoming, there was at least a glimmer of hope.

One hour later.

In a cave, Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying and the others were counting the harvest.

After the counting was finished, according to the old rules, Lu Ye and the others picked some elixirs and talismans they needed and put them away, and the rest were put into the storage bag by Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying and handed over to Xia Daoming.

"Senior Uncle, I feel that practicing like this is also good. Why don't we return to rest a few days later?" After handing the storage bag to Xia Daoming, Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying said with a look of expectation.

"Yes, yes, I also feel it is very good. There is no feeling of blood deficiency after staying in the mine cave for a long time as they said, and I have confidence that as long as I am given more time, I can break through to become an eighth-rank Great Wu Shi!" Lu Ye said with expectation.

Although Lu Huiyun and Lu Zhen didn't speak, their eyes were fixed on Xia Daoming, with expectation.

Yes, it's great in the mine cave! Every day there is spirit rice and elixirs to supplement, there is a martial grandmaster personally pointing out the cultivation, and there is an opportunity for actual combat tempering from time to time!

Of course, you can also make a fortune!

When you go outside, what can you have?

Xia Daoming looked at the expectant eyes of the crowd, thinking that even if he went out, he didn't have enough spirit stones to buy Enlightenment Pills and Qi Refinement introductory secret maps, and there were still many elixirs bought from the market last time, enough to support for a period of time.

Since this was the case, it was better to stay here, which could not only practice and make money but also cultivate Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying and the others.

It's just that killing people at every turn is not good.

After all, the Yan Clan is not all bad people; to put it bluntly, it is still a dispute of interest between the two families.

He is not a Lu Clan disciple. If he keeps killing underground, it will definitely not be in line with his nature.

"It's fine to stay for a while longer, but our goal is still to find mines and dig mines. If the Yan Clan people don't take the initiative to find trouble, you don't take the initiative to find trouble either. Everyone makes their own fortune," Xia Daoming thought for a while and said.

"Yes!" Everyone nodded and agreed without hesitation upon hearing this.

Alas, the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop!

Although Xia Daoming had explained not to kill without reason and to take finding and digging mines as the main business.

But in the following days, I don't know if their luck was bad or the Yan Clan's luck was bad, they actually encountered a group of Yan Clan disciples every few days.

This day, they actually encountered a team composed of a seventh-layer Qi Refinement cultivator and two ninth-rank Martial Grandmasters.

As soon as these three saw Xia Daoming's group of five, without saying a word, the Qi Refinement cultivator directly released a flying sword from a distance of seven or eight zhang, taking Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying's head directly.

The other two ninth-rank Martial Grandmasters flew out at an astonishing speed, wanting to encircle from both sides and cut off their retreat.

Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying looked at the flying sword killing toward her from seven or eight zhang away, her expression changed drastically, and she hurriedly released the Golden Swift Knife to block it.

But after only a few clashes, Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying felt that the true energy and magic power in her body were impacted and turbulent, the light of the Golden Swift Knife was scattered, and she retreated repeatedly.

"Late-stage Qi Refinement, mid-tier magic treasure, you are despicable!" Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying's expression changed again.

"A fourth-layer Qi Refinement cultivator actually has a magic treasure in hand. It seems you have some status and background in the Lu Clan! No, this is Yan Li's Golden Swift Knife, be careful!" The seventh-layer Qi Refinement cultivator first revealed a trace of surprise, followed by a drastic change in expression.

However, his reminder was already late.

Two blade lights suddenly lit up in the dim passage.

The two martial grandmasters who were rushing forward, trying to encircle Lu Ye and the others and not let them escape, seemed to have sent their heads directly in front of the blade force transformed by force.

The two who were rushing forward wanted to stop and dodge urgently, but it was too late. In their haste, they had no choice but to wave their knives to block.

But the two blade forces seemed to have expected it long ago, drawing a mysterious arc in the air, avoiding the knife they blocked from a very tricky angle, and then slashing diagonally upward.

Two huge heads shot into the sky.

The heads had already left the body, but the eyeballs were still moving, revealing extremely shocked and unbelievable eyes.

Because they were still four or five zhang away from the person who slashed!

At such a distance, they never thought about slashing. They just thought about approaching within two zhang, slashing a few knives through the air first to see if they could kill one or two, and then completely sealing their retreat.

If they had known that the other side was hiding a tenth-rank grandmaster, they wouldn't have dared to rush like this even if they were beaten to death!

Tenth-rank grandmaster! You are the despicable ones!

This was a sentence they wanted to curse before their consciousness fell into complete darkness.

After killing two people with two knives, Xia Daoming joined forces with Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying to fight the seventh-layer Qi Refinement cultivator.

The seventh layer was already the late stage of Qi Refinement, and his strength had a relatively large improvement compared to Yan Li who was killed earlier. Moreover, this person's magic treasure was a mid-tier magic treasure, which was more powerful and was a very good actual combat sparring opponent.

"Tenth-rank grandmaster!" The Qi Refinement cultivator's face turned iron-blue.

He was a very low-key cultivator of the Yan Clan who had been training outside for many years. The Lu Clan knew very little about him. This time he was secretly let in, not to find mines and dig mines, but to hunt Lu Clan disciples.

Therefore, the Yan Clan specifically equipped him with two ninth-rank Martial Grandmasters. Martial grandmasters are suitable for close attacks and have fast speed, which are good hunting assistants.

He originally thought that his luck was good today and he had caught a big fat sheep, but he encountered the hunters on the Lu Clan side.

Not only that, but the other side was clearly more despicable and professional, actually setting up several Great Martial Masters and a fourth-layer Qi Refinement cultivator as cover and bait.

This immediately pitted him against two ninth-rank Martial Grandmasters.

If it weren't for his high cultivation and mid-tier magic treasure in hand, he probably wouldn't have a good end now.

However, this cultivator was only annoyed and angry, and not panicked.

With his cultivation strength, the other side couldn't do anything to him. He could leave if he wanted to, and stay if he wanted to.

But soon, the cultivator found that he was thinking too much.

Staying was possible, but leaving was not.

This man and woman cooperated with surprising tacit understanding.

And the man made him feel the most terrified, actually being able to be strong and weak, far and near, as if forcing him to fight the female cultivator.

Half an hour later, the cultivator's mentality finally collapsed and he was stabbed to death by Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying with a knife.

And Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying, who stabbed the seventh-layer Qi Refinement cultivator to death with a knife, had a mentality that reached unprecedented strength!

Another half hour later, a cave was filled with the joy of making a fortune.

——

This day, Cold Star Valley, located on the ridge on the Lu Clan's side.

The Lu Clan's personnel station.

"It's been twenty-five days, and Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying and the others haven't come out yet. It seems they have basically fallen into the poisonous hands of the Yan Clan. Sigh, speaking of which, this girl is really a seedling, what a pity!" In the council hall, Lu Sanxia shook his head and sighed.

"There's nothing to be sorry about! These days, the number of casualties in our Lu Clan has decreased. A large part of the last few batches who went in walked out alive.

Seeing Seeing Lu Ziying and the others couldn't walk out. Firstly, it shows that their luck is poor, and secondly, it shows that they didn't have enough ability to adapt to circumstances when facing danger.

Such disciples, even if their cultivation talent is good, will be difficult to shoulder heavy responsibilities in the future, and their cultivation path is destined not to go far," Lu Weijin said disapprovingly.

"A mere fourth-layer Qi Refinement realm, and she dared to be so arrogant, disrespectful to elders, and not listen to deployment. And that martial grandmaster, only ninth rank, thought he was very amazing, with a look of looking down on everyone.

With such a combination, it would be strange if they could walk out of the mine cave alive!" Lu Junshan, who had a conflict with Xia Daoming and the others last time, said with a look of disdain.

He had entered and exited the mine cave three times, with gratifying harvests and quite good combat achievements, killing a fourth-layer and a fifth-layer Qi Refinement cultivator of the Yan Clan.

However, the martial masters who followed him in and out, except for the three eighth-rank Great Martial Masters he cultivated himself, the rest of the martial masters, including the two times he entered the mine cave later, were mostly killed or injured after Lu Weijin reassigned them to him.

The casualty rate was extremely high.
