Chapter 83 One Person Robs a Group of People
Taking into account the journey of Tu Chishe to provide support, the plan should not be implemented until the Zhou family's cargo ship has traveled more than two thousand miles away from Yunrui Island.
Chen Ye calculated the timing and concluded that the best time to act was after nightfall tomorrow!
Once he had made up his mind, Chen Ye immediately took out a communication jade talisman and sent a message into it. After the jade talisman flashed three times in response, he put it into his storage bag and his figure slowly disappeared into the dense forest.
Meanwhile, on the Mo Jiao, about a thousand miles away from Yunrui Island.
Upon receiving the message from the communication jade talisman, Gong Yi immediately followed Chen Ye's instructions and began searching the sea chart in front of him. He quickly determined the route that the Zhou family's cargo ship was about to take.
"This is it! The captain ordered us to get to this area by nightfall tomorrow, and then wait for news from the captain before we plunder."
He pressed his finger firmly on the nautical chart. This information was obtained by Chen Ye through interrogating many core members of the Zhou family. After comparing them one by one, and with the intelligence that Chen Ye had gathered by infiltrating Yunrui Island in the past two days, there was absolutely no way it could be wrong.
"Hopefully nothing unexpected happens to the captain."
Gong Yi's face was etched with worry. There was no great danger on the Mo Jiao ship, as long as the Zhou family's secret treasure could be lured away.
On the other hand, Chen Ye's side, after all, had more than thirty Zhou family cultivators stationed on Yunrui Island, more than a dozen of whom were at the late stage of the Spirit Condensation Realm. Even though they had already witnessed Chen Ye's strength, they could not help but feel worried.
...............
The next day, after nightfall.
The sky was overcast, as if thick ink had been poured over the entire Yunrui Island.
Under the cover of night, Chen Ye, dressed in a black robe, emerged from the woods where he was hiding. In the two days since arriving on the island, he had already figured out where the Zhou family lived, in a small valley on the north side of the island.
He approached the valley at top speed, and as he passed a spiritual field, an old spiritual farmer who had come out to relieve himself suddenly spotted a figure rushing past in the distance.
"you……"
He instinctively wanted to scream, but before the sound could escape his throat, a sharp sword aura instantly sliced open his neck.
"Pfft~"
Old Lingnong's head lolled to one side, and his body slumped to the ground.
These spirit farmers were actually quite unlucky. They used to receive a few spirit stones every month under the Gong family's jurisdiction, but once the Zhou family came, they were completely exploited, forcing them to work hard to ripen the spirit herbs, but not giving them any cultivation resources at all.
But... since this person discovered Chen Ye, in order to avoid premature exposure, the only option was to silence him.
Soon, Chen Ye arrived near the valley, where there were dozens of wooden houses. As soon as he approached, he saw two Zhou family cultivators walking towards him, chatting and laughing, seemingly on night patrol.
"The Zhou family is quite cautious..."
Chen Ye dodged behind a tree and simultaneously activated the Illusionary Mist Technique, creating a faint black mist within a half-zhang radius around him.
After mastering this spell, Chen Ye's control over the black mist became almost absolute. He could control the range of the black mist at will and resist ordinary wind manipulation techniques.
Furthermore, it was late at night, and shrouded in black fog, so even if Chen Ye stood in an unobstructed place, he might not be noticed from a distance.
The two Zhou family cultivators were both at the sixth level of the Spirit Gathering stage. They talked as they walked towards Chen Ye's hiding place, completely unaware of the danger just a few feet away.
Just as they were less than five steps away from Chen Ye!
"Whoosh!"
Two beams of energy shot out almost simultaneously, and the two Zhou family cultivators had no chance to react before their heads exploded into a spray of blood!
Then, Chen Ye's figure darted out from behind the tree like a ghost, without even glancing at the two corpses, and headed straight for the entrance to the valley.
He's here to kill people; he can do the looting later.
As Chen Ye gets closer to the valley, the probability of encountering the Zhou family members increases significantly.
A cultivator, for some reason, was not resting in his room in the middle of the night, but instead wandering around.
He saw a cloud of black mist drifting rapidly toward him, and within it he could vaguely make out what appeared to be a human figure. He was about to speak and ask a question.
"Pfft!"
The sword light flashed and disappeared in an instant. The cultivator's head flew off at an angle and rolled to the ground, its whereabouts unknown.
Chen Ye stepped over the corpse and continued walking into the valley, but his luck had run out.
After all, cultivators are extremely sensitive to the surrounding atmosphere, and as the death toll rises, the strong smell of blood simply cannot be concealed.
"Zhou Qiang is dead!"
"The valley is under attack! Help!"
As a cry of alarm echoed through the night sky, figures flickered in the wooden house closest to Chen Ye, and a Zhou family cultivator at the seventh level of the Spirit Gathering stage was the first to rush out.
Upon seeing Chen Ye, a fierce glint flashed across his face, and he swung a high-grade magic knife fiercely at Chen Ye.
"You dare trespass on our Zhou family's territory? You're asking for death!"
snort~
The superior-grade magic sword easily cut through the black mist surrounding Chen Ye, but when the mist dissipated, Chen Ye's figure quietly disappeared.
"Huh? Where did it go?"
The Zhou family cultivator looked puzzled. Suddenly, a strong sense of crisis rose in his heart. Without thinking, he swung his broadsword and slashed fiercely behind him!
However, it was too late.
Chen Ye's figure had already appeared behind him like a ghost. The Crimson Dragon Sword in his hand spewed out scorching sword energy, as if a newly forged weapon was being tempered. With a "plop," it pierced into the back of the Zhou family cultivator.
Sizzle sizzle~
The burning and poisonous energy generated by the Fiery Spiritual Power surged into the man's body, and the sword tip pierced through his chest. The intense pain made him wail miserably!
"what!"
boom!
The screams stopped abruptly as Chen Ye used a Spirit Annihilation Finger to end his suffering completely.
"It seems that after mastering the Illusionary Mist Technique, my movement speed within the mist has increased several times over."
Chen Ye savored the smooth, silky feeling he had just experienced in the black mist. Strictly speaking, the Illusionary Mist Technique was actually a movement-based spell, and the black mist formed after its execution was merely a side effect.
After this person was killed, all the Zhou family cultivators in the valley were completely alarmed.
They thought they were being retaliated against by the Gong family, but who would have thought that when dozens of Zhou family cultivators rushed out aggressively, they found that there was only one person standing in front of them!
They even suspected it might be a ploy by the enemy, but after a thorough investigation, they confirmed that there was indeed only one person there.
Could it be that some foolish cultivator has wandered into the wrong place?
"Boy, you think you can plunder our Zhou family?"
Zhou Che stared coldly at Chen Ye, and he was even prepared to activate the communication talisman to send Tu Chishe, who had left Yunrui Island just a day ago, back to provide support.
But now it seems there's no need for that!
