Chapter 331: Superior Status

Just as Shen Ning and his group were rapidly approaching Liaodong under the cover of Leng Feng, on the other side, Xie Lingyue was discussing the future marching route with Pei Yuanzhou and several deputy generals.

In addition to the sneak attack that day, the scouts she sent out in the past two days kept discovering people trying to track the whereabouts of the grain transport team.

Although they were getting closer to Pingdu City, the final moment was the most urgent. Xie Lingyue stared at the map and the area ahead of them. After a moment of silence, she turned to look at Xu Zhiyi and said, "Master Xu, I urge you to tell me where the ambush is ahead of you. Otherwise, if the grain transport team encounters any crisis, I promise to kill you first."

Xu Zhiyi raised his eyebrows imperceptibly and sneered, "Xu will never betray the master."

Xie Lingyue was just considering whether to torture her to extract a confession when she heard Xu Zhiyi's second half of the sentence: "I advise Miss Xie to be more polite to me, otherwise, Beilin Mountain, thirty miles away, will be your burial place."

Beilin Mountain?

Xie Lingyue looked at Xu Zhiyi and fell silent.

After a pause, she said, "The dense forests on the slopes of Beilin Mountain are indeed easy to set up an ambush, but the narrow canyon can even trap the entire grain transport team..."

Xu Zhiyi curled his lips: "So Miss Xie is going to take the narrow path?"

While he was shouting that he would never betray, he easily sold out the ambush ahead. Xie Lingyue didn't know how many of his words were true and how many were false. After a pause, she looked at another place on the map.

Morro Cliffs!

Pei Yuanzhou frowned when he saw her gaze. "As far as I know, Moruo Cliff has a steep cliff on one side and a deep abyss on the other. It's certainly not easy to set up an ambush there, but it's also steep and difficult to walk on. If we go that way, if someone attacks us from behind, I'm afraid we won't be able to respond in time."

Xie Lingyue also had this concern, which was why she was hesitant.

On one side are mountain valleys that are easy to walk on but also easy to set up ambushes; on the other side are cliffs that are difficult to walk on and set up ambushes on, but difficult to deal with in the event of a conflict... both are difficult to move forward.

Beside him, Xu Zhiyi glanced at the map and closed his eyes leisurely: "A year ago, Chen Ning was on the way to Liaodong to protect her brother Shen Qingbai. She thwarted a surprise attack by the Tatars. It is said that the Tatars had opened a mountain path on the cliff..."

He glanced at Xie Lingyue and the other two and said, "You two don't seem to know."

Xie Lingyue's eyes lit up instantly. "You mean, the secret passage opened by the Tatars is right on the steep cliffs of Moruo Cliff ahead?"

Xu Zhiyi shook his head: "I didn't say anything."

Xie Lingyue looked at him deeply, then ordered: "Send the scouts to investigate."

If they could truly find that secret mountain path, their grain transport team would be able to quietly cross the most difficult section of the journey and deliver the food directly to Prince Ding's army...

Half a day later, the scouts returned with exciting news: there was indeed a gap in the mountain road opened by the Tatars on the cliff over there, but the end of the road was blocked by huge rocks brought by Wei Guang and his men.

But it doesn't matter, they have explosives.

The explosion made a loud noise, but that didn't matter... By the time the people who were waiting in secret to cause trouble arrived, they had already crossed the mountain path.

Xie Lingyue made the decision: "Prepare the thunder bombs, we will blow up the mountain road."

Next to him, Xu Zhiyi leisurely reached out to grab the teacup next to him. When he was caught by Xie Lingyue, he remembered the rope that was originally tied around his hands.

Glancing at the rope hanging loosely on his arm, Xu Zhiyi paused: "If I say you didn't tie it tightly enough, would you believe me?"

Xie Lingyue asked him: "Why are you helping us?"

Xu Zhiyi sighed: "I'm just a poor captive. What else can I do except be obedient?"

Xie Lingyue and Pei Yuanzhou looked at each other, both speechless.

As for Xu Zhiyi, they couldn't see his true face at all...

Just as Xie Lingyue led the grain transport team to take a shortcut through the mountain road out of Tatar to deliver food to Dingwang's army, on the other side, Chen Ning, Nu Jiaolong and Leng Feng finally arrived at Liaodongwei.

At this time, the entire Liaodong Weihai had been blocked by the rebel Xu Zhong and the Tianxin Sect. Leng Feng saw the flag of the Xu family army from afar and looked excited: "We're here."

Mr. Xu Sanye’s letter is about to be delivered!

This secret mission was completed so perfectly, and countless wealth and glory are waiting for him in the future!

However, Shen Ning held him back: “Master, we can’t go over there now. We have to go to a secret base first.”

"Secret base?"

Leng Feng opened his eyes wide: "You even know about the secret base?"

Shen Ning smiled a little embarrassedly: "It was Master Xu San who told me that this matter was of great importance and that no one should know about it before arriving at Liaodongwei. I swore a solemn oath and I will never break it. I didn't mean to conceal it."

Leng Feng nodded thoughtfully: "Then Mr. Xu San really has a trick up his sleeve. No wonder he can accomplish great things!"

After all this time, Leng Feng no longer had any suspicions.

He was not an intellectual player, and the younger brothers around him obeyed his orders along the way and delivered the letter to Liaodong obediently without any abnormality. The unreasonable suspicion in Leng Feng's heart was completely dispelled.

Hearing that there was a secret base, he immediately became curious: "Is it the secret base of our Right Protector lineage?"

Shen Ning nodded vigorously: "It's ours."

Leng Feng heaved a long sigh, but felt a little uneasy: "Liaodong is so far away, will such a secret base recognize us?"

Shen Ning lowered his voice: "Master Xu told me at the beginning that he had sent a letter to the secret base to inform them that as long as they see you, the hall master, they will naturally let you go."

Leng Feng was a little surprised: "I, Leng, already have such a big face?"

Shen Ning smiled: "Who said it wasn't?"

Half a day later, the group arrived at the secret base of "Tianxin Sect".

From a distance, Leng Feng saw a warship suddenly appear... The warship was fully armed, and the soldiers on it were all solemn. He almost thought he had encountered the imperial navy.

Pushed by Shen Ning behind him, he quickly said: "Ahem, I am Leng Feng, the leader of the White Tiger Hall. I have been ordered to dispatch personnel to Liaodong Guard to reunite with the Right Protector!"

After shouting, he looked at the leader on the opposite warship with some trepidation.

Seeing that person looked at him, then looked behind him, and then raised his hand and said, "Let him go," Leng Feng became excited in an instant.

It turned out that because he was highly regarded by Mr. Xu San, his status in the Tianxin Sect had become so transcendent that he only needed to show up and such a private army would obey his orders!

This feeling is more intoxicating than wealth, beauty and wine!

Leng Feng felt a little dizzy, and that was why when he landed on the island and saw the disciplined soldiers, the shocking artillery and the thunder bombs piled up like a mountain, even though his legs were a little weak, he still forced himself to remain calm.

"Well, not bad, not bad..."

After saying that, he whispered to his younger brother beside him: "Master Xu didn't tell us what we should do?"

Shen Ning leaned over and whispered, "Third Master said that we should take the people to Liaodongwei and hand them over to Xu's army to complete the mission."

Leng Feng nodded solemnly, but he was a little hesitant and uneasy: "Um...how should this hall master give the order?"

He was a self-taught person before and had never seen such a scene. How should he speak without losing face? He has no experience!

Don't embarrass yourself.

Shen Ning comforted him: "These are all trivial matters. They recognize your face, Hall Master. You just need to tell them to follow you."

Is it that simple?

Leng Feng had some doubts, but he had no better solution, so in the end, he coughed lightly and said in a loud voice: "Everyone listen to my orders."

Shen Ning turned to face the several armored soldiers opposite and raised his chin.

Just when Leng Feng was wondering whether these people would listen to him, he saw thousands of fully armed soldiers on the opposite side, their armors clashing and standing still in unison.

“Bang, bang!”

Leng Feng was so shocked that he gulped, but he also felt very excited. He waved his hand and said, "Everyone... follow this hall master and head towards Liaodong Guard."

The next moment, he heard a unified response that shook the sky.

"yes!"

At this moment, Leng Feng even felt that he had become a great general who was feared by the world, full of pride...
