...
Ever since reaching a cooperation agreement with Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Sect Master Yu Xiaolie had been holding back a breath of anger.
Over the past few days, he had personally led a team to roam the outskirts of Heaven Dou City, directing his subordinates to harass the ordinary merchant caravans of the Moon Pavilion.
But those petty troubles could not appease the hatred in his heart towards Luo Nan, nor could they bring substantive benefits to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, which was currently extremely lacking in resources.
He desperately needed a huge victory to stabilize his position as the newly appointed Sect Master and to announce to the entire continent that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had not completely declined!
"Unmatched Heaven And Earth Treasures... Several Spirit Bones..." Sect Master Yu Xiaolie paced back and forth in the mine cave.
"That scum Luo Nan actually transferred such important items overnight; he must be afraid of the joint pressure from our Upper Three Sects!"
"Sect Master, should we notify the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect about this matter first?"
"After all, Ning Fengzhi said that we must take unified action."
Another Elder reminded him with some hesitation.
"Notify my ass!"
Sect Master Yu Xiaolie let out a cold snort and cursed angrily.
"That old fox Ning Fengzhi speaks nicely on the surface about splitting the profits equally."
"If he really finds out about the existence of this batch of heavily treasured items, given the greed of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, would there even be any soup left for our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to drink?!"
Sect Master Yu Xiaolie stopped in his tracks, his gaze turning incomparably fierce:
"These past few days, we've been outside biting people for him like dogs, while the people of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect hid in the back to watch the show."
"This time, since this piece of fatty meat has fallen right to our mouths, we must swallow it in one bite!"
"But Sect Master, the intelligence says that the Moon Pavilion hired five Spirit Saints to guard the convoy this time."
"Although the manpower we brought out this time are all elites, but..."
"So what if there are five Spirit Saints?"
"I am already an eighty-second-level Spirit Douluo. Dealing with a few wild-path Spirit Saints who are risking their lives for money is simply as easy as turning over my palm!"
"What is more, we still have two Spirit Douluo Elders holding down the fort!"
Sect Master Yu Xiaolie's gaze swept across the elites of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect present and he shouted sternly:
"Pass down my order! Everyone, rest and recuperate immediately! Tomorrow late at night, follow me to set an ambush at Luohun Valley outside the west gate!"
"As long as we rob this batch of goods, the resources for the rebuilding of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect will be settled!"
"The humiliation Luo Nan inflicted upon us will be reclaimed with interest starting from this batch of goods!"
"Yes, Sect Master!"
Uniform low roars echoed inside the mine cave.
...
Night fell.
At this moment, in the dense forest halfway up the mountain on one side of Luohun Valley, dozens of ghostly black shadows were quietly lurking.
They were uniformly dressed in tight black clothes, with thick black masks covering their faces, revealing only pairs of eyes flashing with greedy and bloodthirsty light in the darkness.
Even their breathing was deliberately suppressed to the lowest level, as if they had merged into the surrounding darkness.
The leading person was stalwart with a torch-like gaze, and he was none other than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect Sect Master, Sect Master Yu Xiaolie.
By his side, crouching on the left and right, were two similarly black-clothed, masked Elders, who were the two power-holding Spirit Douluo-level Elders of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.
"Sect Master, it has been nearly an hour. Why hasn't the Moon Pavilion's caravan appeared yet? Could it be that the intelligence was wrong, or did they change their route temporarily?"
The Elder on the left lowered his voice, a hint of anxiety in his tone.
After all, what they were going to rob tonight was the property of Luo Nan, someone whom even the Upper Three Sects feared immensely.
Sect Master Yu Xiaolie cast a cold glance at him:
"What are you panicking about? Keep your cool! The intelligence from our undercover agent in the black market of Heaven Dou City was exchanged with their lives; it is absolutely impossible to be fake."
"The goods transported by the Moon Pavilion this time are no trivial matter, so the convoy must be heavy, and the marching speed naturally cannot be fast."
"Wait a little longer, they will definitely pass through here!"
In his heart, Sect Master Yu Xiaolie was actually a bit nervous, but more of it was a fanaticism of imminent sudden wealth.
He clenched his fists tightly, and the Cultivation materials and top-quality Spirit Bones mentioned in the intelligence kept appearing in his mind.
As long as he could take down this batch of goods, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would be able to Cultivate a large number of elites in a short period of time. Coupled with those Spirit Bones, he, Sect Master Yu Xiaolie, would also become the greatest restoration master in the history of the Sect!
Time passed minute by minute, and the fierce wind continued to howl in the valley.
Just as the Disciples behind Sect Master Yu Xiaolie were beginning to become somewhat unable to hold back, an extremely faint sound of wheels crushing gravel drifted over from the direction of the valley entrance along with the wind.
"They're here!"
Sect Master Yu Xiaolie's spirits lifted, and two sharp glints burst out from his eyes.
He suddenly raised his hand, making a gesture for silence and battle preparation.
The surrounding men in black instantly tightened their nerves, placing their hands on their respective weapons and storage spirit tools. Soul Power surged secretly within their bodies, ready to burst out with a fatal blow at any time.
Taking advantage of his weak night-vision ability, Sect Master Yu Xiaolie looked down from a high vantage point.
He saw a massive convoy slowly driving into the entrance of Luohun Valley.
The convoy consisted of more than a dozen heavy carriages pulled by tall, sturdy horses. The ruts pressed deep marks into the mud, showing just how heavy the goods loaded on them were.
Around the convoy were dozens of fully armed guards, among whom the auras of five figures were particularly deep and introverted.
They were clearly the five Spirit Saint powerhouses hired at a high price mentioned in the intelligence.
Right in the center of the convoy was a huge sedan carriage with extremely luxurious decorations, pulled by four century-level Spirit Beast scale-armored horses, appearing exceptionally eye-catching.
"Indeed a big catch!" Sect Master Yu Xiaolie licked his dry lips, the greed in his heart having completely overwhelmed his reason.
When the convoy completely entered Luohun Valley and marched to the narrowest section least suited for defense, Sect Master Yu Xiaolie knew the time had come.
"Do it!"
Accompanied by Sect Master Yu Xiaolie's low roar, his entire body leapt down from the halfway up the mountain like a roc spreading its wings, landing right in the middle of the road in front of the convoy.
"Bang!"
The hard rocky ground was stepped into two deep pits by him, and gravel splashed about.
Immediately afterwards, dozens of black shadows leapt down from the cliff walls on both sides like dumplings dropping into a pot, instantly surrounding the entire Moon Pavilion merchant caravan tightly.
The sudden change startled the horses of the caravan, causing them to emit bursts of neighs.
The guards successively drew their weapons, looking at these men in black who descended from the sky as if facing a formidable enemy.
Sect Master Yu Xiaolie slowly straightened his body, his arrogant gaze sweeping across the merchant caravan before him:
"This road is opened by me, this tree is planted by me! If you want to pass through here, leave behind the toll!"
"Boom!"
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black!
A full eight best-ratio spirit rings rose from under Sect Master Yu Xiaolie's feet, undulating up and down around his body.
The powerful pressure of an eighty-second-level Spirit Douluo, like tangible raging waves, instantly swept across the entire valley.
The pressure at the Spirit Douluo level was also enough to make most of the people present feel suffocated.
