The rescue team led by Ye Wushang had been quietly lying in ambush in the dense forest on the edge of the swamp, waiting for the escort team from Youdu Mountain to arrive.

As time passed, everyone was on edge and dared not relax at all.

Finally, dull footsteps and the sound of dragging chains were heard in the distance, and the escort team slowly entered the misty swamp.

There were a total of more than fifty evil spirits and evil cultivators, whose cultivation levels ranged from the Qi Refining Stage to the Nascent Soul Stage, and they were escorting more than a hundred hostages slowly forward.

The hostages were held in specially made prison vans, their hands and feet shackled with chains, their faces showing expressions of fear and despair.

Seeing this scene, a trace of anger and sadness flashed in the eyes of Ye Wushang, Li Wanji and others.

They knew that these hostages had suffered inhuman torture on the road and were now like lambs to be slaughtered, completely powerless to resist.

Ye Wushang took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and whispered to everyone: "Prepare for action!"

Following his order, everyone immediately took action.

Hongdie quietly flew out and used her expertise in stealth techniques to sneak behind the escort team.

Li Wanji's figure flashed and turned into a shadow, rushing towards the center of the escort team.

Her target was the hostages bound in chains.

Ye Wushang led the others to face the evil ghosts and evil cultivators who were escorting the team head-on, and a fierce battle broke out instantly.

For a moment, the foggy swamp was filled with the flashing of swords and sabers, overflowing spiritual power, and the sound of shouting and killing shook the sky.

Li Wanji moved as fast as lightning through the crowd, her eyes always fixed on the prison cars.

She waved the Phantom Feather Sword in her hand, and every time the sword flashed, evil ghosts and evil cultivators would scream and fall to the ground.

Soon, she came to the prison van and tried to cut the chains and rescue the hostages.

Unexpectedly, there was a strange aura flowing on the chain, as if it contained some kind of forbidden power. Li Wanji slashed it with her sword, and only a crisp sound of metal clashing was heard, and only a shallow sword mark was left on the chain.

She frowned slightly, knowing in her heart that these chains were by no means ordinary things and it would not be easy to cut them off easily.

But time waits for no one, she must find a way to rescue the hostages as soon as possible.

Li Wanji's mind moved, and the spiritual power in her body surged out and poured into the Huanling Sword.

This time, she did not hold back and swung her sword with all her strength. The sword light was dazzling, like a flash of lightning cutting through the darkness.

"boom!"

A loud bang rose into the sky, and the chain only had a deeper sword mark than before, but it was still tough and unbroken.

Li Wanji was shocked. She didn't expect the defensive power of the chain to be so strong.

"Fairy, it's useless. You might as well help me unlock the spiritual seal first. I have my own way to open the chains." At this time, a clear but weak voice came from the prison car.

Li Wanji looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was a young man. Although he was dressed in rags, his eyes and eyebrows revealed an extraordinary temperament.

The Qingqiu Nine-tailed Fox Clan?

A hint of doubt flashed in Li Wanji's eyes, but the situation was urgent at the moment, she had no time to ask more questions, so she had to do as she was told.

She took out a "Hui Yuan Dan" from her storage ring, and put it into the young man's mouth in the blink of an eye. Then she raised her hand and condensed a spiritual power, which she injected into his body to help him break the spiritual seal.

Suddenly, a powerful aura burst out from the young man. He suddenly opened his eyes, with a sharp light flashing in his eyes.

He stretched out his hand and a small jade talisman appeared in his hand.

He bit his fingertip and used the blood as a guide to draw a complex rune on the jade talisman, and then attached it to the chain.

As the runes lit up, the tough chain began to melt slowly, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke and dissipated into the air.

Seeing this, Li Wanji couldn't help but marvel in her heart. This young man was indeed extraordinary. He could actually untie this strange chain so easily.

Then, he took out several jade talismans and stuck them on the chains of other prison cars. Soon, the chains of all the prison cars were untied and the hostages were freed.

"Thank you fairy for saving my life!"

"If the fairy hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid we would have died long ago."

……

"Now is not the time to talk about this. You should go in and take shelter first. We still have to continue fighting!" Li Wanji interrupted everyone's thanks and swept her cold eyes towards the center of the battlefield.

There, Ye Wushang and others were fighting fiercely with the enemy!

Although the hostages regained their freedom, most of them were seriously injured, their spiritual power was exhausted, and they were unable to participate in the battle. She did not have enough panaceas to immediately restore their fighting power.

Li Wanji acted decisively, waved her hand and opened the space portal, sending everyone into the secluded dock.

When Li Wanji was guiding everyone into the [Sheltered Wood], suddenly a strong wave hit her. She immediately turned around alertly, only to see a black shadow rushing towards her at an extremely fast speed.

She looked closely and saw that the black shadow was actually a huge and ferocious beast, the Nightmare Tiger, with sharp scales all over its body and a ferocious light flashing in its eyes.

Obviously, this Nightmare Tiger is a guardian beast specially arranged by Youdu Mountain on the escort route to prevent anyone from robbing along the way.

But she was currently guiding everyone into the Sheltered Dock and could not be distracted. If she let the Nightmare Tiger rush into the crowd, the consequences would be disastrous.

At the critical moment, the young man suddenly stood in front of Li Wanji. A trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He let out a low shout, and a powerful aura burst out from his body.

"Fairy, please send everyone to the Sheltering Valley quickly. I will deal with this beast!"

Li Wanji nodded at him and quickened the pace of leading everyone into the Sheltered Wood.

The young man turned around and faced the Nightmare Tiger. He formed seals with his hands, and the spiritual power in his body surged out, condensing into a bright sword light, and slashed fiercely at the Nightmare Tiger.

"Roar!"

The Nightmare Tiger let out an earth-shaking roar and spewed out a black flame from its mouth, which collided with the young man's sword light.

The two collided, causing an astonishing energy wave. The surrounding trees were shaken and fell down, and cracks appeared on the ground.

However, the young man just swayed and then stabilized his body. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he swung his sword at the Nightmare Tiger again.

This time, he did not hold back. Each of his swords contained powerful spiritual power and exquisite swordsmanship, forcing the Nightmare Tiger to retreat step by step.

Finally, under the heavy blow from the young man, the Nightmare Tiger let out a shrill scream, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, and there was no movement anymore.

After dealing with the Nightmare Tiger, the young man turned and nodded to Li Wanji, indicating that the threat had been resolved.

Li Wanji had just sent the last group of people into the Sheltered Wood. She breathed a sigh of relief and said to the young man, "Thank you for your help, what is your name?"

"I am Tu Shanyi from the Qingqiu Fox Clan. Thank you, fairy, for saving my life." The young man bowed slightly and introduced himself.
