When Qian Yue rushed into Xie Qi's room, Xie Qi was already lying on the bed, somewhat dazed.
"Third brother, something bad has happened. Someone has sneaked into the village and knocked down our guards."
Qian Yue rushed to Xie Qi's bed and said.
Xie Qi was in a daze when he heard Qian Yue's words. He was a little dazed, but after a few breaths, he reacted and quickly sat up from the bed with a shocked look on his face, saying: "What did you say, someone sneaked into the village.
Who are they and how many are there
Qian Yue looked a little anxious. When he heard Xie Qi's question, he shook his head and said, "I don't know either. I only discovered something unusual after I went out. I found that the guards nearby had fainted in a pile of grass.
I am not very clear about the current situation. I informed you as soon as I found the abnormality.
Third brother, I think we have to investigate. I don't know what the situation is like with the boss."
After hearing Qian Yue's words, Xie Qi hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Okay, let's go check out the situation first."
Quickly getting up from the bed, Xie Qi followed Qian Yue out of the house.
At this time, several guards who had been awakened by Qian Yue before had rushed over. They also woke up several unconscious guards nearby.
"Second and Third Boss, we just checked and it seems that everyone around us has been knocked down, including the brothers who were resting in the house."
A guard reported to Qian Yue and Xie Qi.
Qian Yue and Xie Qi looked at each other with astonishment on their faces. They really didn't know who could have knocked down their entire village without them noticing.
"Hurry, let's go to Brother Xiong San and take a look at the situation."
It is unknown what the purpose of the intruder is.
Xie Qi spoke to everyone, after all, Xiong Sanba was the strongest person in the village, and it was always right to look for him first when there was a problem.
Afterwards, Qian Yue and Xie Qi took a few guards and began to cautiously rush towards the rear of the stronghold. As expected, all the patrolling guards, secret sentries and ordinary bandits along the way fell into coma.
Xie Qi and Qian Yue were filled with shock at this moment. They didn't know how many people had sneaked in to allow the other party to do this quietly.
They didn't have time to wake up the bandits one by one, so they could only let them lie down for the time being, and the group quickly rushed towards Xiong Sanba's residence.
Just when they passed through the central area of the stronghold and arrived at the rear of the stronghold, they suddenly discovered that there were still some guards active here.
The guards were also surprised when they saw Qian Yue and Xie Qi suddenly arriving. After all, it was already midnight, and the two bosses came to the rear of the stronghold naturally to meet the eldest boss.
"Hey, how come you are okay? Someone sneaked into the village and all the brothers in front were knocked down. Is there anything unusual here?"
Qian Yue looked at the guards in surprise and asked.
Several guards were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and said, "Second Commander, there is nothing unusual on our side. The brothers from other patrol teams just met each other, and everyone is fine."
Xie Qi was slightly stunned when he heard the answers from the guards, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "Oh no, the other party's goal is to rescue those hostages.
That's why it was necessary to knock out everyone in the front and central areas of the stronghold. This way, they could escape with those traveling merchants who had little fighting power.
Come on, Brother Qian, let's go over there quickly. The rest of you come with us. Two of you should go and inform the boss and sound the alarm of the village."
Qian Yue was a little hesitant when he heard Xie Qi's words, and said, "Third brother, if the opponent is very strong, will it be dangerous for us to go there like this?"
Xie Qi said: "The opponent's strength must be stronger than Lingwu Stage, otherwise it would be impossible for him to easily defeat so many of our Lingwu Stage brothers.
However, the opponent's strength has definitely not reached the Lingdan stage, otherwise he or they would not have to be so sneaky.
You see, the other party knocked down everyone around him, but left the two of us alone, which means he was concerned about our strength.
If he was a Spiritual Pill Stage expert, he could have just captured the two of us, and the hostages would have been released naturally, without going through so much trouble."
After hearing Xie Qi's analysis, Qian Yue couldn't help but nodded. Judging from the situation, what Xie Qi just said was very likely to be correct.
"Well, Third Brother, let's go to the cell together. If the opponent is only at the Spiritual Sea Stage, the two of us may not be able to defeat him, but we can still buy time until Big Brother comes."
Qian Yue made a quick decision and sent two guards to call Xiong Sanba. The rest of the people followed him and Xie Qi and rushed to the cell.
At the same time, the alarm bell in the mountain stronghold was sounded, and the group of bandits who had not been knocked unconscious at the rear of the stronghold began to wake up one after another.
The situation in the village spread quickly by word of mouth, and the group of people hurriedly got up and started heading towards the cell.
Ye Li was unlocking the door for everyone when he suddenly heard the alarm ringing.
"Oh no! It looks like my actions have been discovered. Hurry up, everyone. Those who have unlocked the locks should help others remove the handcuffs and leg shackles. We are going to prepare to escape."
While Ye Li was giving instructions to everyone, he released his spiritual power.
Now that he had been discovered, he no longer needed to hide his actions. His spiritual power covered an area of 120 meters in radius, and all the movements of half of the village were transmitted into his mind.
Relying on the perception of his spiritual sense, he had already seen Qian Yue and Xie Qi rushing over from the back of the mountain village. At this time, they were not far away from the cell.
Xie Qi and Qian Yue also sensed Ye Li's spiritual power. Judging from its intensity and range, they estimated that Ye Li should be in the middle to late stage of the Spiritual Sea period.
"Second Brother Qian, the opponent seems to be in the middle to late stage of the Spiritual Sea Stage. The two of us will definitely not be able to defeat him, but we should be able to delay him by working together.
As long as we can hold on until Big Brother arrives, we can work together to take him down."
As the distance got closer, Xie Qi and Qian Yue also used their spiritual powers. Although the range of their spiritual power was not as wide as Ye Li's, it was enough for them to detect the situation in the cell. Naturally, they knew that Ye Li was the only one who came to rescue them.
After feeling the exploration of the two people's spiritual power, Ye Li flicked his finger and immediately a bone-scorching flame mist was stimulated by him.
Under his precise control, the fiery mist quickly spread around the cell, completely enveloping the interior.
Ye Li's control over the talisman was amazing. The wooden cell, which was tightly surrounded by the flames, did not show any signs of burning. His power was restrained perfectly.
His heavenly grade bone-sparkling flame mist could block the intrusion of spiritual consciousness. It now permeated the entire cell, completely blocking Xie Qi and Qian Yue's exploration of the cell.
