Night, Moon Mountain Pass.

“Kill them!”

Following that, the sounds of intense fighting rang out once again in the pass.

The devilish army of the Liang Kingdom had chosen to launch a fierce siege at night.

The huge city wall had once again turned into a huge slaughterhouse, filled with the smell of blood and death.

Just as everyone’s attention was drawn to the battlefield, ten figures flew quietly into the pass under the cover of the night.

While flying, a cultivator from the Xueyang Sect could not help but say, “Don’t you think Senior Brother Zhuang is making a mountain out of a molehill?”

“Our operation this time is so secretive. How could it be easily exposed?”

Another cultivator from the Xueyang Sect immediately retorted, “Shut up. It’s never wrong to be careful.”

“Senior Brother Zhuang is doing this for our own good. After all, having more tricks up our sleeves means we’ll be safer. Don’t forget, this is Qingyun Sect’s territory.”

“If we are really left here, no one will be able to save us.”

Since he had already said so, that cultivator from Xueyang Sect did not continue saying anything else.

He was just complaining just now, but he did not really think that these methods were bad.

Just as they were halfway through the mountain range, they suddenly discovered several figures in front, stopping them.

The ones who stopped them were five Innate Stage martial artists who could fly.

In the mountain range of the Moon Mountain Pass, they encountered five patrolling Innate Stage martial artists.

This situation was undoubtedly beyond their expectations.

The five Innate Stage martial artists stopped them and asked, “Who are you? Why are you here?”

In the face of the five Innate Stage martial artists’ questions, a Xueyang Sect cultivator seemed to have been prepared and directly stepped out of the crowd.

“Who are we? We’re Foundation Establishment Stage disciples of the Qingyun Sect!”

“Right now, we have something important to report to the sect leader. Why are you stopping us?”

Lion-ape walked out of the crowd. He did not fully believe what they said and said coldly, “Since you’re Qingyun Sect disciples, do you have proof?”

The so-called proof was actually something similar to a practitioner’s token.

Not only did such a token contain a special array, but it also contained the divine soul of a Qingyun Sect disciple.

Therefore, once the token holder died, the divine soul within the token would be shattered, causing the token to be destroyed. The confidentiality method was extremely high, and it was very difficult to forge.

Under the gaze of the five Innate Stage martial artists, including Lion-ape, the ten Xueyang Sect disciples took out the Qingyun token of a Foundation Establishment Stage disciple and activated the array within.

Seeing the light emitted by the token, Lion-ape and the others immediately hesitated.

These guys… They really seemed to be Qingyun Sect disciples!

The Xueyang Sect cultivators heaved an internal sigh of relief when they saw the change in the expressions of Lion-ape and the others.

Fortunately, before they came, Senior Brother Zhuang Yangbing had considered the possibility of them encountering Qingyun Sect disciples.

Therefore, he took out the precious Qingyun Tokens for them so that they could disguise themselves as Qingyun Sect disciples when they encountered such a situation.

The reason why these Qingyun tokens were precious was that to make these Qingyun tokens work, firstly, they could not let the Qingyun Sect disciples die. Secondly, they could not let these disciples go too far.

This meant that there were ten Qingyun Sect disciples in the devilish way camp.

It was guaranteed that these ten tokens could be used normally.

The ten Qingyun Sect disciples who were detained were originally not at the Foundation Establishment Stage but at the Qi Cultivation Stage.

After they were captured by the Xueyang Sect, they were forced to advance to the Foundation Establishment Stage with a secret technique to achieve the current situation.

“Since you’ve already seen our tokens, why aren’t you letting us in quickly?”

“If you delay our important matters, can you bear the responsibility?”

Facing ten aggressive Qingyun Sect disciples, Lion-Ape recalled Lu Yuan’s words.

“Lion-ape, if you encounter several suspicious people during your patrol this time, you must stop them and not easily believe their nonsense.” Lu Yuan had urged him.

“Even if the other party said that he was a Qingyun Sect disciple and took out the corresponding proof, you cannot believe it.”

“This was because the devilish way cultivators might have the means to disguise themselves as Qingyun Sect disciples.”

“Therefore, when you find suspicious people, report them to me immediately and stall them.”

Lion-ape remembered Lu Yuan’s orders and had sent someone to report in advance after discovering these ten people.

Therefore, currently, he was only stalling for time.

Thinking of this, Lion-ape began to think about what he should do to delay these people.

This was because comparing the combat strength of both sides, their side only had five Innate Stage martial artists.

Ordinarily, two Innate Stage martial artists were required to deal with a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, not to mention that they were outnumbered.

When the few Xueyang Sect cultivators saw that Lion-ape and the others had no intention of letting them go, Zhuang Yangbing’s words surfaced in their minds.

“Junior Brothers, if the other party still doesn’t let you in after you take out your tokens, that means that someone in the Qingyun Sect has already suspected that we might disguise ourselves as Qingyun Sect disciples to enter Moon Mountain Pass.” Zhuang Yangbing had said.

“Therefore, at this moment, you have to come up with a reason that will make the other party unable to delay…”

Thinking of this, the disciples of the Xueyang Sect stopped hesitating.

“How long do you want to delay us? Look at what this is!”

As he spoke, the Xueyang Sect disciple took out another item.

When Lion-ape saw the item in the hands of the Xueyang Sect cultivator, he was shocked.

That was because that was the token of a Qingyun Sect Core Formation Stage elder!

“We are under the orders of the inner sect elder and have something urgent to tell the sect leader. See this elder token? Quickly move aside!”

Under normal circumstances, Lion-ape would definitely have moved aside.

But at this moment, he recalled what Lu Yuan had said to him.

“Lion-ape, these devilish way cultivators always had strange methods.”

“If they want to disguise themselves as Qingyun Sect disciples, they’ll most likely forge our sect’s Qingyun Token,”

“If they could really do this, they might even be able to forge the token of a Core Formation Stage elder.”

“Therefore, if the other party insisted on not saying what they want to do and only uses the token to force you to retreat, then you will hold them back until I come.”

Thinking of this, Lion-ape seemed to have taken a pill of reassurance and replied very firmly, “My lords, please wait for a moment. The current battle is intense. We are also following orders.”

“In just a few minutes, our director will arrive personally. After he has confirmed that there are no mistakes, he will let you leave.”

Seeing that the Lion-ape did not let them leave even after all they did, the leading Xueyang Sect cultivator was dumbfounded.

“You have verified our identities and we have shown you the elder’s token. Why aren’t you letting us go yet!”

“You’re just an Innate Stage martial artist, aren’t you afraid of offending us?”

Had they not been worried that a battle here would attract the attention of the cultivators in the nearby Moon Mountain Pass, the Xueyang Sect cultivators might have already attacked.

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, the Xueyang Sect cultivators once again recalled what Senior Brother Zhuang Yangbing had told them.

“Junior Brothers, if the other party still doesn’t choose to let you in after seeing the elder’s token, that would mean that they might have guessed that we can forge tokens.”

“At this point, don’t hesitate and retreat.”

Thinking of this, the few of them exchanged looks and made a decision.

However, just as they were about to turn around and escape, a voice came from the side.

“Fellow Practitioners, where are you going?”

The Xueyang Sect cultivators turned around and saw a man wearing a white mask. Without them knowing, he had flown behind them and blocked their way.

This person was none other than Lu Yuan.

Looking at Lu Yuan, who was blocking their way, the Xueyang Sect cultivators immediately had a bad feeling.

“Senior Brother Zhuang Yangbing, didn’t you say that no one in this world is more stable than you?” a Xueyang Sect cultivator thought to himself.

But why was the situation before them seem so strange?

In the devilish way camp.

“Senior Brother Zhuang, why didn’t you let us go to the Great Xia Kingdom with Senior Brother Ye and the others earlier? Instead, you made us wait for two hours before we set off?”

Looking at the five Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators beside him, Zhuang Yangbing smiled and said, “I asked you all to set off two hours later because I wanted to make more preparations.”

“I’m doing this to prevent anyone in the Qingyun Sect from guessing my plan.”

“But even if he guessed part of my plan, he would never have thought that I would arrange for another group of people to enter the Great Xia Kingdom after Junior Brother Ye and the others.”

“We have to always plan for the worst and make arrangements accordingly. This is why I am the senior brother and you all are the junior brothers.”

“All right, it’s about time. You can set off.”

“Yes, sir!”

Zhuang Yangbing smiled proudly as he watched the second batch of Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators fly towards the Moon Mountain Pass.

With such a thorough plan, it was unlikely that there would be any more problems.

Unless there is someone in this world who is more stable than me and can consider so many scenarios in a row and come up with countermeasures.

Otherwise, my plan would have been flawless and there would have been no possibility of failure!

As for whether there was anyone more stable than him in this world, Zhuang Yangbing felt that it was impossible.

He was already stable to such an extent, how could there be anyone more stable than him!

Zhuang Yangbing laughed proudly as he thought about the benefits he would reap after his plan succeeded.

How could a group of inflexible people who adhered to the old rules understand the many backup plans that he had arranged?

“Just wait to be played within the palm of my hands!”

Kekeke…
