Han Daobin, Han Deling and Han Changming looked at each other. It was okay that there was no one stationed on Xuanqingdao and Heilu Island, but there was no one stationed on Dafeng Island either
What the hell is Huoyun Sect doing? If they are withdrawing their forces and defending the main altar, why did they leave behind so much property
Han Changming held his chin with one hand, looking thoughtful. If he was the leader of the Huoyun Sect, he would also withdraw his troops if the invading enemy was strong, but he would definitely make the invading enemy suffer.
Are there any traps on the island? As far as Han Changming knows, there are some special talismans that are specially placed on land. If someone triggers them, the consequences will be serious.
"Uncle Daobin, be careful, there may be traps on the island!"
Han Changming reminded with a serious expression.
To be honest, they have completed the mission, but they are reluctant to leave because of the wealth on the island. Money is attractive.
It would be a shame to leave the thing when it is right in front of you.
Unlike Xuan Qingdao, the property of Dafeng Island may be in the manor. From the sky, no property can be seen. In this way, they must land on the ground to plunder the resources for cultivating immortals.
Han Daobin nodded and said, "That's what I thought too. Let's release the puppet beast to explore the way first."
Under the command of Han Daobin, the Han family cultivators released ten first-level puppet beasts, which landed on the island to investigate the situation.
Ten first-level puppy puppet beasts were running around the island, and there was nothing unusual.
Han Daobin was very patient and asked his tribesmen to control the puppy puppet to rush towards the mountain where the manor was located.
Just as the two puppy puppets rushed to the middle of the mountain, a huge roar was heard, and a large area of red flames suddenly emerged from the ground, covering the two puppy puppets.
Not long after, the flames dissipated, the two puppy puppets disappeared, and a huge pit over ten feet in size appeared on the ground.
Seeing this scene, Han Daobin broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he did not let his tribesmen go to the island to search, otherwise he would have suffered a loss.
"Put away the puppet beasts and retreat. Tell the outside world that we have encountered a powerful enemy and are outnumbered."
Han Daobin ordered, putting away the puppet beasts and retreating with the tribesmen.
······
On Xuanguang Island, flames shot up into the sky, and a red light flew out from the island and flew towards the sky.
A long green rainbow followed closely behind, at an even faster speed.
A red round bead the size of a longan flew out from the red escape light and headed towards the long green rainbow.
A clear sword sound was heard, and a large piece of green sword energy flew out from the long green rainbow, attacking the long green rainbow like an overwhelming force.
Boom!
The dense green sword energy slashed at the red round bead, and the red round bead suddenly exploded, turning into a huge ball of fire, covering an area of 100 feet in radius.
After the flames dissipated, the red light also disappeared into the sky.
Chen Hongming stood in front of a manor with an indifferent expression. Most of the trees on the island had fallen, there were dozens of huge pits, and more than a dozen corpses were lying on the ground.
He used his sword-controlling skills to break the formation and killed many Huoyun Sect monks, and most of the Chen family monks were killed or injured.
Chen Hongming's eyes were gloomy. He had wanted to take this opportunity to weaken the power of other immortal cultivation families and make a small fortune. Who would have thought that he would end up shooting himself in the foot.
"Chief, what should we do next?"
Chen Yuheng frowned and asked.
"Quickly clean up the battlefield, plunder the island's cultivation resources, and rush to another small island."
In this battle, the Chen family sent out three foundation-building monks, four foundation-building monks from the Huoyun Sect, and a dozen Qi-refining monks to ambush them.
Chen Hongming killed three Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Huoyun Sect, and one Foundation Establishment cultivator escaped. The price was the death of one Foundation Establishment cultivator and seven Qi Refining cultivators from the Chen family. The loss was quite large, so he had to plunder more property to make up for the loss.
By this time, Chen Hongming had already seen through the layout of the Huoyun Sect. They abandoned the islands with abundant resources for cultivating immortals, sent heavy troops to guard individual small islands, killed the invading enemies, and then retreated to the main altar.
Chen Hongming had to praise Sun Rong. This move was indeed effective in seconds. On the one hand, it reduced casualties, and on the other hand, it could kill the enemy.
Sun Rong's move was indeed effective in seconds, but it also disrupted Chen Hongming's plan.
With the military strength of Huoyun Sect, they can at most deploy heavy troops on three small islands, and they must be deployed on different routes. There should be no more ambushes on the route that Chen Hongming is responsible for. Of course, this is only in theory. Chen Hongming must act with caution in order to avoid a big loss.
In Huoyun Sect, Huoyun Hall, Sun Rong was listening to the report from her subordinates.
She withdrew her forces and set up ambushes on two small islands. Her direct forces took control of one island and wiped out a small family. The opposition took control of the other island and would probably be back soon.
A burst of hurried footsteps sounded, and a middle-aged man in his early thirties walked in and said in a deep voice: "Master, Senior Brother Song is back, but he is the only one back. The others are not back."
Sun Rong was slightly stunned and asked, "What happened? Four foundation-building cultivators, a dozen Qi-refining cultivators, and a formation, but only one person escaped?"
Several immortal families united to attack Huoyun Sect. The driving force behind the scenes was Tinghai Pavilion, Taixu Sect and Qingyun Sect. The coalition was composed of several immortal families. They would definitely divide their forces to attack the islands controlled by Huoyun Sect. In this way, there would not be too many cultivators attacking the islands. It should be one immortal family attacking one island. Logically speaking, the force sent by Huoyun Sect was not weak. Even if they could not win, they would have no problem retreating unscathed! Could it be that the enemy did not divide their forces
If that's the case, things are serious.
"I don't know. Senior Brother Song didn't say anything and went straight back to the cave."
The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment, his eyes turned cold, and he said, "Master, how about we kill him..."
He made a gesture of wiping his neck. The Senior Brother Song he mentioned was Song Zhe, the deputy hall master of the Deacon Hall, who had always been against Sun Rong and had enriched himself. If Song Zhe had not opposed Sun Rong's reforms, Huoyun Sect would not have fallen to its current state.
Lotus Sun was a little moved. She shook her head and said, "People are panicking right now. It's not appropriate to attack him. We need to unite and get through this first. It won't be too late to settle accounts with him later. Let's ask him what's going on first."
With heavy troops approaching, Lotus Sun would naturally not do something stupid like cutting off her own arm.
Lotus Sun took out a blue shell and entered a spell. Soon, a somewhat impatient male voice sounded: "Master, what's the matter?"
"Brother Song, why did you come back alone? Where are Brother Wang and the others? How many enemies did you encounter?"
"We were stationed on Xuanguang Island and were attacked by a powerful enemy, more than 20 people! I fought desperately to break out of the siege. I don't know the situation of Junior Brother Wang and the others. I guess they will be back later!"
Sun Rong frowned and said, "Didn't I tell you to stay on Zifeng Island? Why did you go to Xuanguang Island?"
"Really? Maybe I remembered it wrongly. Master, please withdraw your troops! The enemy is coming aggressively. If we disperse our troops, we won't be able to stop them. I have some minor injuries and need to recuperate for a while. Junior Sister Li and I will not participate in the next battle. You can make the decision."
"Okay, that's it, you take good care of yourself."
Lotus Sun cut off the connection, her eyes dark.
“These idiots were told to take charge of Zifeng Island, but they went to take charge of Zifeng Island instead. They encountered a strong enemy and can only blame themselves for their bad luck.”
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "They are worried that the Sect Master wants to take this opportunity to get rid of them, so they made the decision on their own and took control of Xuanguang Island instead. This is a good thing. The Sect Master will take the opportunity to seize the power in their hands. When the war is over, it will be useless for them to oppose the Sect Master."
"Well, Junior Brother Liu, you should handle this matter yourself. Send someone to take over the power held by Senior Brother Song and his men. First, sideline them. Once this hurdle is resolved, you can settle accounts with them."
"Yes, Master." The middle-aged man took the order and left.
Less than half an hour later, the middle-aged man walked in quickly, his face panicked: "Not good, Master, Senior Brother Song and Senior Sister Li left the main hall with a group of disciples, and it seems that they are trying to escape."
Lotus Sun was furious and cursed, "Asshole, I was expecting him to be so kind as to hand over his power. It seems like Junior Brother Wang and the others are in trouble, which is why Senior Brother Song is so eager to escape."
The opposition led by Song Zhe had six foundation-building cultivators. If Song Zhe wanted to escape, it must be because the other three foundation-building cultivators were dead. Even if Huoyun Sect could get through this, Sun Rong would not let Song Zhe go. Therefore, Song Zhe slipped away in advance.
"Master, they haven't gotten far yet. Should we send someone to catch them?"
Sun Rong hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did they spread the news of their escape?"
The army was approaching, and the disciples of Huoyun Sect were already in panic. If the news of Song Zhe's escape spread, Huoyun Sect would be defeated without a fight, without waiting for the enemy to reach the main temple.
The middle-aged man shook his head and explained, "No, they said they were sent to provide support on your orders."
"Forget it, let them be! It's better if they leave, so I don't have to worry about dealing with them."
Sun Rong was eager for them to leave, otherwise if she killed Song Zhe in the future, she would be branded as someone who harmed her fellow disciples.

In a boundless sea, a gigantic red python flew quickly from the sky.
The waist of the giant red python is as thick as a water tank, and its body is covered with fist-sized red scales. It has two pairs of red fleshy wings about ten feet long on its back and a golden fleshy crown on its head.
An old man in his early fifties sat on the back of a giant red python. His face was flushed, and he was wearing a red python robe. A red gourd the size of a palm hung around his waist.
The old man in red robe took off the red gourd from his waist, took a sip of wine, and said to himself with satisfaction: "So many years have passed, and I don't know how the sect is doing. If Senior Sister Zhao was still here, she should have entered the Jindan stage!"
The red python let out a hissing sound, as if expressing something.
"You must be homesick too! Speed up. When I took you away, you were only this big. Now you have been promoted to the upper level of the second rank. Time flies."
The old man in red robe slapped the giant red python under him, and the giant red python flapped its wings vigorously, increasing its speed.
······
Huludao, a quiet courtyard.
Han Zhangxiang was sitting in the stone pavilion, while Ye Xin was walking back and forth at the door of a wooden house, looking anxious.
Suddenly, a baby's cry was heard.
"She gave birth. My sister finally gave birth."
Ye Xin's face showed joy. Han Changming was fighting outside and Ye Xue was about to give birth, so naturally Ye Xin, as the elder sister, had to take care of her more.
Not long after, the door opened and a woman in her early fifties in a green dress walked out with a happy look on her face.
"Aunt Fifteen, how is it? Is my sister okay?"
Ye Xin asked nervously.
The woman in the green skirt shook her head and said with a smile, "The number of babies I delivered is at least 80, what can go wrong? Don't worry! Ye Xin, mother and daughter are safe, clan leader, Xue'er gave birth to a daughter, it's cause for celebration."
Han Zhangxiang showed a happy expression and said, "Good, good, good, as long as mother and daughter are safe, Changming is fighting outside, you must take good care of the child. Ye Xin, did Changming say what name to give the child?"
According to the rules of the Han family, only those with spiritual roots can have a generation name. Before that, parents will marry a child with a single name.
"My husband said that if it's a daughter, we'll name her Han Fu."
"Han Fu! This is a good name. Ye Xin, if you need anything, just ask. We are a family, please feel free."
Ye Xin smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, Patriarch, I'll go in and see my sister first."
Ye Xue was lying on the bed, her face pale and sweaty. A baby was lying beside her with his eyes closed. The newborn baby was pink and very cute.
"Sister, are you okay? I was so worried."
Ye Xin walked in and asked with concern.
"Sister, what mom said is right. It turns out that only a big butt can give birth to a son."
Ye Xue sighed and said that the immortal cultivation family did not care about the gender of the child, but cared about whether or not the child had spiritual roots. However, Han Changming's lineage was small, and according to Han Changming's wishes, it would be better to have more sons to strengthen his lineage.
Therefore, Ye Xue wanted to give Han Changming a son.
Ye Xin smiled bitterly, scratched Ye Xue's nose with her finger, and said angrily: "Silly girl, didn't your husband tell us? It doesn't matter whether you have a boy or a girl. You are still young anyway. At most you can have a few more children, and one of them will be a boy."
"Yes, by the way, why hasn't my husband come back yet?"
Ye Xue was about to give birth. In order to prevent her from worrying too much, no one told her that Han Changming had taken people to attack Huoyun Sect. Ye Xue thought that Han Changming was on his way back.
"It will be soon! I guess it will be in this short time. You just gave birth to a child. You should rest for a while and wait for your husband to return in the best condition."
Ye Xin comforted her, she knew very well that only in this way would Ye Xue listen to her.
Ye Xue really likes Han Changming and follows Han Changming's wishes in everything.
After hearing this, Ye Xue nodded and agreed.
"Han Fu! Wait until your father comes back. He will definitely be very happy."
Ye Xue looked at her daughter beside her with a loving look on her face.
······
On a deserted island, Han Changming and others gathered on a hill. Han Changming looked at the location of Huludao from afar with a trace of worry on his face.
According to the time, Ye Xue should have given birth. I wonder how Ye Xue is doing.
"Chang Ming, don't worry. With the clan leader and Ye Xin here, Ye Xue will be fine. As many of us came out, as many of us will go back. When the time comes, you can have a full-moon banquet and don't come back until you're drunk."
