Chapter 88 Return to the Mountain Gate 3

  In the dense forest area, there must be people from Bi Hai Zong and Tai Hang Gang waiting in ambush, but the number of people will not be small.

  As for the power of Qingyun Sect, it is not certain whether it has infiltrated into the dense forest. Or perhaps Elder Fang and others have been surrounded by people from the other two sects, their current situation even more precarious than that of Fang Tian Nan and his nine companions. Alternatively, Elder Fang may have already contacted the sect's personnel and is racing against time to search for Fang Tian Nan and the others.

  Because of all this uncertainty, Huang Piao's proposal was quickly put before everyone.

  "I think we should head back as soon as possible," said Xiao Ruo, thinking aloud. "Firstly, we've already wasted a lot of time on this journey. If Fang Zhang Lao and the others are safe for now, they must be worried sick. Secondly, if Fang Zhang Lao and the others have indeed been surrounded by the other two major sects and need to wait for rescue, what's the point of us staying here? The people from Bi Hai Zong and Tai Hang Bang will definitely not give up on chasing us. Do we really want to cross over this mountain range behind us?"

  As they spoke, Xiao Ruo specially turned her head and took a glance back.

  It can be said that throughout the entire Youming Mountains, there are many dangerous areas known as "forbidden lands" that ordinary sect disciples cannot enter. Even inner door disciples of the three major sects will face life-threatening dangers when entering these areas. The mountain range that Fang Tian Nan and his group have currently reached is undoubtedly one such "forbidden land".

  "What if we encounter hostile forces before meeting Elder Fang?" Zhai Jianming looked around at everyone and said, "With our strength, if we only encounter a small team of people, maybe we don't have to be afraid of anything. The problem is, as soon as the battle starts, it will make a lot of noise and inevitably attract more enemies."

  "That's also true." Huang Biao nodded, "I think it's better this way. We'll just wait here for a while first. Whether it's Fang Zhanglao or the other two major sects, they should all be concentrated in the area centered on that dense forest. Let's wait here for now and let them decide on a result first, then we can make arrangements accordingly. How about it?"

  "Hmm." Han Guangyue also spoke up, "I think the people from our sect won't just leave us unattended. If it's someone from our sect who gains the upper hand, with so many of us gathered here, they'll naturally suspect that we're hiding here. And if the other two major sects' people really do come chasing after us, don't we still have only one escape route?"

  As he spoke, Han Guangyue also glanced at the continuous mountain range behind him. Unlike Xiao Ruo's previous glance, after analyzing the current situation, Han Guangyue really felt that with everyone being surrounded by the two major sects' personnel, it was hard to say whether this mountain range in front of them was still so formidable.

  。。。。。。

  Nine people in a row, just waiting here like this, is not the key to solving the problem. Don't look at Huang Piao's mouth saying that he is watching from here, but in his heart, he can't help but think of flying to the dense forest area early. So, the crowd continued to discuss for a while and decided to gradually approach the direction of the dense forest.

  When the distance is close enough, send out one or two more members to scout ahead and gather information.

  At this time, it was naturally necessary for Fang Tian Nan's perceptual ability.

  Fang Tiannan didn't decline, tidied up his own luggage, threw the package to Zhai Jianming to take care of it, and alone, sneaked into the dense forest. Xiao Ruo followed Fang Tiannan from a distance to provide backup.

  It was roughly half a minute later that Fang Tian Nan suddenly sensed that there seemed to be a large gathering of people in front, and moreover, they were constantly spreading out in all directions. After thinking for a moment, Fang Tian Nan did not rashly go forward, but instead beckoned to Xiao Ruo behind him.

  The two of them whispered to each other for a while, because Fang Tian Nan was also unclear about the situation ahead. He simply let Xiao Ruo wait here, and if Fang Tian Nan hadn't returned after the agreed-upon time, Xiao Ruo would take the lead in returning and contacting the other seven people to retreat.

  For this, Xiao Ruo first firmly refused, and only reluctantly agreed under Fang Tian Nan's solemn guarantee. After all, this can also be considered as considering the overall situation.

  As Fang Tiannan gradually approached the location where the crowd had appeared, he instead heard waves of fighting sounds. Soon, Fang Tiannan would realize that it should be the Qingyun Sect's forces and the personnel of the other two sects who had encountered each other. Otherwise, they wouldn't have made such a commotion.

  As expected, before Fang Tian Nan had even approached, he felt like he had been discovered. Immediately after, someone rushed towards him. It seemed that there was another person who wanted to intercept and take the lead, but they were blocked by an accomplice of the first person.

  "Huh, is that Elder Fang?" As this person approached, Fang Tian Nan sensed a rather familiar aura.

  "Is it you?" Fang Lao also slightly stunned, then burst out laughing and said three "good"s in a row. "Good, good, really didn't expect that the sensory ability has awakened."

  "Huh, Elder Fang, what's that up ahead?" When Fang Tian Nan saw Elder Fang, his vigilant expression naturally relaxed. As for Elder Fang being able to discern his perceptual abilities at a glance, Fang Tian Nan didn't mind. After all, the other party was also a true person of the Earth Yuan realm, and their strength far surpassed Fang Tian Nan's by a large margin.

  "It's not like this is the first time our mission has been disrupted." Fang Lao muttered gruffly, "However, seeing you're safe, I've also eased up a bit. Let's go, the sect members have already entered the Youming Mountains to meet us, so it's no big deal. As long as there aren't any casualties, this matter will be settled just like that."

  Perhaps seeing the scars on Fang Tian Nan's body, he carefully approached this side, and Fang Zhang Lao was able to infer that Fang Tian Nan had fought with other sect members. In his words, there didn't seem to be any hidden meaning towards Fang Tian Nan.

  "Have many people from the sect arrived?" Fang Tian Nan's eyes lit up.

  "Heh heh, what do you think?" Fang Zhanglao said with an even worse tone, "To say the least, this time it's also because those two sects have gone too far. So, in the sect, almost all the elders have come. And, the Sect Master is also furious, directly going to the Taihang Bang sect..."

  "Huh?......" Fang Tian Nan was suddenly speechless.

  The strength of the master of Qingyun Sect is indeed the first among the three major sects. It can be said that although Bihai Sect and Taihang Gang, two major sects, also have a Tianyuan realm true person each, however, as Tianyuan realm true persons, there are still differences in strength. There is a rumor circulating outside that even if the master of Qingyun Sect were to fight alone against the two top experts of Bihai Sect and Taihang Gang, he would not be at a disadvantage.

  It's clear that the Sect Master of Qingyun Sect has come to Taihang Gang, and almost all the members of Taihang Gang have lost their will to fight. Moreover, most of the elders of Qingyun Sect have arrived at Youming Mountains, so if they were to deal with Bihai Sect alone, they would actually have a significant advantage.

  No wonder Master Fang can come out alone during the standoff between the two sides and face the sky.

  To know, the thing that Fang Tiannan is most worried about is that Qingyun Sect will be at a disadvantage in the confrontation. Once Fang Tiannan's whereabouts are revealed, the outcome won't be too optimistic.

  Thinking of this, Fang Tian Nan couldn't help but suppress the excitement in his heart and rushed to Fang Zhang Lao saying: "Fang Zhang Lao, please wait a moment, come with me for a while. I still have many companions behind me."

  "Oh?" Fang Lao heard this and his face suddenly lit up with joy, asking, "You've all gathered together? Hmm, that's right, that's good... Ah, how many of you are there?"

  "Count me in, nine." Fang Tian Nan replied.

  "Haha...". Fang Zhang laughed loudly upon hearing this, "Good, good! My Qingyun Sect's disciples are indeed impressive. Now the number of people is complete."

  No need for explanation, Fang Tian Nan was also clear that before this, Elder Fang and Wu Zhi Shi had already contacted the remaining eleven people. It's hard to say whether the Qing Yun Sect has set up such a large formation, with the ultimate goal of worrying about the safety of Fang Tian Nan and others, or exerting pressure on the two sects to rescue the outer disciples who may be captured.

  Fang Tian Nan pondered, the sect really attached great importance to these twenty outer disciples who participated in the secret mission. Not only did they dispatch the sect's elders, but even the Sect Master appeared.

  At the same time, Fang Tiannan also felt a warmth in his heart.

  As a member of the sect, who doesn't want the sect to pay attention to themselves?
