Jiang Bai gave the Black-Clad Guards a chance to inform their comrades, and the Black-Clad Guards naturally wouldn't let it go.
The strength of the person in front of them left them with no chance to resist, so when he fired the signal flare, he gave a team-annihilation level signal.
Deep in the mountains, in a temple dedicated to the eldest princess, the large bell in the center, having received some unknown signal, suddenly began to ring out.
The sound was repeated eighty-one times, which alerted all the Black-Clad Guards in the camp, who quickly assembled at the temple gate.
"Which bastard is playing around with a team-wiping flare?"
An elderly man with gray hair appeared in front of the temple, his sharp tiger eyes glaring at the group of black-clad guards below. No one in the black-clad guards dared to meet his gaze.
The sound of bells still echoed in my ears.
The leader took a count of the people present and then fell silent.
Where are the members of Team Gui 1?
One of the men stepped forward and reported, "Reporting to the leader, Team Gui was ordered to patrol the mountain today, but has not yet returned."
Once he was sure everyone else was there, the leader's expression turned serious.
It seems this isn't just some kid messing around with the signal; something serious has really happened.
"Pick everyone, proceed to the location where the signal originated."
"Assess the situation first, then take action."
The Class A Black-Clad Guards stepped forward to receive the order, raised their hands, and more than two thousand Black-Clad Guards dispersed in an orderly manner, leaving the camp in different directions.
The leader glanced back at the princess's temple, then went to the eight stone pillars at the temple entrance. He gathered his inner strength in his palms and struck each of the eight pillars with varying force.
Soon, a rumbling sound came from the temple, and a huge crack suddenly appeared in the ground, swallowing the entire temple.
Then he left the place.
Suddenly, a mountain over thirty meters high in the middle of Mangshan opened up from both sides, and the leader walked out from it. He placed his palm on the mechanism again, and the mountain closed up once more.
Even up close, it's impossible to tell that this mountain is any different from other mountains.
The Black-Clad Guards acted swiftly; almost immediately after the signal was sent, Jiang Bai sensed the movement within an hour.
An ambush by more than two thousand people.
Formations, hidden weapons, poisons, hidden arrows, traps...
Various methods appeared before Jiang Bai, and rather than being a last-minute response, she preferred to call it a pre-planned strategy.
The entire Mangshan Mountain was the territory of the Xuanyi Guard.
However, none of them were a match for Jiang Bai.
Apart from the last leader of the Black-Clad Guards, who barely possessed 0.5% of Jiang Bai's strength at his peak, the other Black-Clad Guards were at most 0.3% or 0.4% of his strength.
When the leader of the Black-Clad Guards was captured, everyone was stunned.
No, they haven't left the mountain for decades, and the people outside have become this powerful?
The ground was littered with people, and the venomous snakes and insects in the forest avoided them, which prevented the group from being bitten to death by snakes after being subdued.
The guard in black who sent the signal was dumbfounded.
Their entire army was wiped out, and even their leader was captured.
As expected, the leader was lying to them; their strength was still very weak.
The Gui-ranked Xuanyi Guard, who was already equivalent to a top-tier expert in the outside world, was questioning his life.
Because everyone was wearing masks, they were able to keep their composure.
They were all lying on the ground, questioning the meaning of life.
"You guys are already very good."
Jiang Bai moved closer to the gray-haired leader of the Black-Clad Guards and sincerely praised him.
"You brat, don't you dare insult me."
The leader of the Black-Clad Guards was so angry that his eyes turned red. He had fought against more than two thousand people by himself, and yet he still said they were powerful. Was this girl deliberately trying to humiliate them?
"I'm serious, you have to believe me."
Jiang Bai tried to explain, but the more she explained, the redder the leader's eyes became.
They believed that Jiang Bai was completely humiliating them.
Seeing that he didn't believe him, Jiang Bai had no choice.
She's not human, how can these people compare themselves to her?
However, considering that these people might not be suitable to listen to what she was about to say, she went straight forward and knocked all two thousand people unconscious.
Even Mingyu, who was already unconscious, was hit.
"Alright, now no one can bother us."
The highly skilled leader of the Black-Clad Guards naturally knew that the man had only been knocked unconscious. Seeing that Jiang Bai had no intention of killing him, he began to ponder the situation.
It's speculated which faction sent these people.
One person alone took down their entire Black-Clad Guard. Would such a force still recruit them?
Do you recognize this?
Jiang Bai took out the picture and placed it in front of the leader of the Black-Clad Guards.
Upon seeing the location marked on the diagram, the leader's pupils constricted slightly.
That's... the location of the camp.
Looking again at the animal hide with the drawing, there was a bit of charring at the edges.
Who are you?
Instead of answering, the leader asked a question, carefully examining Jiang Bai before him.
"My name is Jiang Bai, and my mother's surname is Song."
Song?
The leader's pupils contracted again, and a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes.
But soon, the light in his eyes faded. The young lady had died young and had not left any children. It was likely that this girl had discovered the place where the young lady had hidden her treasures, which was why she had come here.
"According to him, you are called the Black-Clad Guards."
Jiang Bai pointed at Ming Yu, but the leader only glanced at him before looking away.
A member of the Ji royal family.
Seeing his expression, Jiang Bai smiled.
“You have hidden yourselves in this Mangshan Mountain under assumed names. You must have some kind of hardship. And this map left by my mother points to this place. You must have a connection with my mother.”
"I have many questions in my mind that I need you to answer."
