The Qian family retreated.
All the way, Qian Zhongxuan was very puzzled. Where did the magic come from?
Hunter demon masters shouldn’t be skilled in magic, right?
“Could it be that old fellow Yu Changlin made a move himself?”
Qian Zhongxuan shook his head, “That’s not right, the spiritual power was too weak, it seemed like it wasn’t even certain to be at the late stage of Refining Qi.”
But with such a low and weak realm, how could the magic be cast so far?
Qian Zhongxuan thought of a hundred ways but couldn’t figure it out, only secretly cursing in his heart:
“Good for you, Yu Changlin, you were hiding such a move, truly insidious enough!”
But only Elder Yu knew that he himself had been wronged this time, because the insidious person really wasn’t him...
Seeing the Qian family retreat, Mo Hua stood up, brushed off the dust from his body, and smiled.
“Fireball technique is really fun!”
Elder Yu also looked somewhat impressed, patted Mo Hua’s small shoulder, and praised: “Not bad, the magic was used with form and style!”
He didn’t want to praise too much, lest he appear ignorant.
Getting praise, Mo Hua smiled even happier, then asked again:
“What other means does the Qian family have next?”
Elder Yu said: “Don’t think too highly of that old thing Qian Zhongxuan. For his small brain to be able to think of this method is already unprecedented. Next, it’s a hard-fought battle, he’ll have something good to see.”
The next day at dawn, the Qian family cultivators arrived again.
Indeed, as Elder Yu said, Qian Zhongxuan had no new tricks, only honestly lined up, ready for a frontal war.
Qian Zhongxuan cursed Elder Yu a dog’s blood shower in his heart, but on the surface he didn’t dare to speak, afraid of inviting humiliation.
Do not contend with ordinary people for temporary quickness of tongue!
Qian Zhongxuan secretly admonished himself.
In a frontal battle, the Qian family had many people and superior cultivation, while the hunter demon masters were few but experienced in hundreds of battles. The chance of winning was estimated to be around fifty-fifty.
But you never know until you fight.
Neither side wasted words and directly rushed into the fray.
Thus, on the mountainside of Nameless Peak, cultivators were densely packed, bright shiny knives and swords crossed, and five-colored spiritual power crisscrossed.
Mo Hua watched, extremely shocked.
After both sides had battled, finding it difficult to separate, Elder Yu estimated that the Qian family cultivators would not easily retreat. He waved his large hand and made a chopping motion.
“Let you see some good things.”
Elder Yu looked towards the distant Qian Zhongxuan, a trace of a mocking smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Qian Zhongxuan was startled, then he saw from the hunter demon masters’ queue, more than ten hunter demon masters wearing iron armor walked out.
As the sunlight shone on them, the iron armor emitted a dark luster, and their momentum was majestic and solemn.
Qian Zhongxuan almost spat blood.
Where did these poor hunter demon masters get iron armor?!
Immediately, he looked at these iron armors and found them somewhat familiar. His gaze was like a knife, glancing towards Qian Zhuang who was standing aside.
Qian Zhuang was shrinking his head, not daring to say a word. At this moment, he extremely hated that he was tall and big, making him particularly conspicuous in the crowd, unable to hide even if he wanted to.
“No harm, iron armor won’t make you immune to knives and guns either.”
With a great enemy before his eyes, Qian Zhongxuan calmed his mindset and ordered the Qian family cultivators to hold back the hunter demon masters wearing iron armor.
If knives and swords chopped enough times, even iron armor would break.
Then he just discovered, this iron armor, it really seemed to be immune to knives and guns!
Ordinary knives and swords chopped on them, and there wasn't even a scratch. Even first-grade knife weapons didn’t cause much damage.
Force impact and spiritual power fluctuations were also resolved by the faint golden light on the iron armor.
These iron armors were seized from the Qian family. Originally, there were also arrays inside, but they were too rough. Mo Hua was very disdainful and just wiped off the original ones, drawing golden armor arrays on them himself.
First-grade golden armor arrays were enough to make iron armor as solid as a golden soup!
Refining Qi ninth layer, experienced in hundreds of battles, hunter demon masters, wearing iron armor forged from refined iron, and then reinforced with first-grade golden armor arrays, in a Refining Qi battlefield where Foundation Establishment cultivators didn't make a move, they could basically be invincible.
Gods block them, kill the gods; Buddhas block them, kill the Buddhas!
These more than ten iron-armored hunter demon masters were like entering no man’s land. Wherever they went, almost no Qian family cultivators could stand against them.
Hard against hard, no one could be harder than these iron armors.
Qian Zhongxuan watched until his scalp was numb.
Their Qian family’s iron armor, when did it become so powerful?
How could it still not be cut down like this?
Immediately, he also saw the faint golden light on the iron armor.
“This is... an array?”
Qian Zhongxuan cursed loudly in his heart. The iron armor itself was already hard enough, and they actually damned well reinforced it with an array again? Did they not want any face?
“Good for you, Elder Yu, I’ve remembered this grudge!” Qian Zhongxuan said hatefully.
But defeat had already begun, and Qian Zhongxuan was powerless to reverse it, so he could only say with hatred: “Withdraw!”
However, wanting to withdraw wasn’t that easy.
The battlefield spread out, cultivators mixed in battle, the scene was chaotic.
When the Qian family ordered a retreat, it was like a mountain peak collapsing. For a time, rocks rolled, and they didn’t know where to go.
The Qian family cultivators’ fighting spirit was scattered, they fled in all directions in panic, and the hunter demon masters pursued and killed them from behind, expanding the results.
By the time the Qian family cultivators successfully withdrew back to below the peak and temporarily rested, they had already suffered heavy casualties, with nearly half of the cultivators unable to fight again.
Qian Zhongxuan’s heart was bleeding.
Qian Zhuang was sad in his heart, but also not that sad.
Compared with Elder Qian’s failure, his own little failure couldn’t even be called a failure, only a setback, fundamentally not counting for anything.
Thinking like this, Qian Zhuang actually felt a bit better in his heart...
But he didn’t dare to provoke Qian Zhongxuan’s temper, only expressing sorrow and indignation:
“This time, the casualties are heavy, the hunter demon masters bullied us too much! I don’t know if Elder has a strategy to lead us to take revenge and wipe away the shame!”
Qian Zhongxuan’s expression showed a wave of pain, then he gnashed his teeth and said:
“This grudge must be avenged!”
“Even if it costs a lot, I want that old fellow Yu Changlin to pay the price!”
Qian Zhuang’s heart jumped. Elder Qian was indeed angry, he just didn’t know what other means he had.
Qian Zhongxuan’s heart was bleeding, while Elder Yu’s heart was joyful like flowers.
This was a hearty big victory!
Elder Yu allowed everyone to celebrate a little, eating meat and drinking wine.
The meat was boiled and then smoked good jerky, also wild bull demon meat, made well by Liu Ruhua before.
Because of the conflict with the Qian family, she didn’t know how long they would have to guard the spirit mine, so she made a lot. But there were also many hunter demon masters, so when divided among each hunter demon master, it was only a few pieces, just enough to taste.
They couldn’t drink much wine either, only two bowls per person.
Because the matter of the spirit mine was important, there couldn’t be any accidents. Even on the day of a great victory, they couldn’t be negligent.
Other dry rations, wild fruits, and similar food were not restricted.
The atmosphere inside the mine cave became lively.
Everyone was guarding the spirit mine, and also had to find time to mine spirit stones, and also had to cope with the Qian family’s harassment, and also had to fight with real knives and guns. The usual atmosphere was either serious or depressed. At this time, they could finally put down their burdens and relax a little.
Mo Hua also strolled around everywhere. Wherever he went, hunter demon masters enthusiastically greeted him.
After all, without Mo Hua drawing the golden armor arrays, they would have suffered more injuries, and guarding the spirit mine would have been even harder.
Some hunter demon masters were reluctant to eat their own wine and meat and wanted to invite Mo Hua to eat.
Mo Hua refused them all. Everyone had worked hard for so long, it wasn’t easy to eat something good.
Most importantly, he had a lot of good food in his storage bag, specially prepared for him by his mother, afraid he would be hungry inside.
However, he had been staying inside for a bit long, Mo Hua usually saved his food, and the meat was also almost finished.
“I don’t know how long we still have to guard this spirit mine…”
Mo Hua said silently in his heart.
Five more finished.
Thank you everyone for your support and encouragement!
