I don't know what they're doing.
Xie Zhou dared not rashly go to negotiate with so many people, lest he be unable to handle them all by himself. Although those three henchmen were easy to deal with, having too many people would be a problem.
She held her ground for the time being, curious to see where all these men in black had suddenly appeared from. She wondered what their purpose was. Were they also here to participate in the monster-hunting event? But why were they attacking her? It was all very strange.
She crouched down, hiding in the bushes, and carefully observed the movements of the men in black through the gaps.
The area was surrounded by men in black, making it impossible to see who was inside their encirclement.
The area was completely surrounded, so she couldn't see what was going on inside at all.
"Making a mystery out of nothing..."
Suddenly a familiar voice rang out.
"You all should leave now. I'll deal with these men in black. Once I create an opening, you can escape immediately!"
An older senior disciple stepped forward, while the others nervously gripped their magical artifacts, staring at the menacing-looking man in black opposite them.
That person is a disciple of the Sword Sect!
Xie Zhou realized that the group of men in black had surrounded the disciples of the Sword Sect.
As her senior, she definitely had to help them.
I had barely taken half a step when I heard the sound from that side.
"You guys... activate the formation!"
Immediately there, an invisible barrier formed.
The disciples of Wuyou Pavilion and Sword Sect were surrounded by those men in black.
Xie Zhou quickly withdrew his foot, silently reminding himself not to rush.
Don't alert them. Observe the situation first. How come this group of men in black has surrounded people from two sects? Their strength should not be underestimated. She needs to find a way to rescue them.
The disciples of Wuyou Pavilion used a combined attack formation to keep the men in black outside the formation. A small group of Sword Sect disciples were on Wuyou Pavilion's side because they were keeping some of Wuyou Pavilion's people in line to prevent them from chasing after the Wuyou Pavilion disciples who had run away.
An argument ensued, and as was obvious, the men in black seized the opportunity to surround them separately.
The disciples of Wuyou Pavilion held spirit swords, while some of them displayed their spiritual power behind them, creating a protective shield for the area.
The man in black pressed forward relentlessly, laughing as he said, "Hmph, show us some strength! Why are you using this kind of formation to deal with us? There's no danger here at all. You guys, get out there and take care of the people in the back."
"yes!"
"Bang! Bang!"
Those men in black were attacking the weakest point of the barrier from behind.
"Hmph! You can't break it."
"You can't let Wuyou Pavilion down. Keep up the good work. This barrier is our first hurdle."
"Hold on."
Time passed second by second. The Sword Sect members and the men in black were locked in a stalemate. Each of their spiritual swords was suppressed by some kind of force and could not be used. They were surrounded by the men in black, their eyes filled with determination as they stared intently at the men in black in front of them.
Why haven't we made a move yet?
"No! Are we in a good situation right now?"
"We don't know the strength of this group. We shouldn't make any rash moves."
"Ah!...Charge!"
An impatient sword sect disciple kept trying to dissuade him, and immediately rushed forward with his sword. However, he was grabbed by the neck by a man in black, lifted into the air, and then thrown aside, where he was slammed to the ground and knocked unconscious.
"Why don't you put down your weapons and surrender? Is this what you want to end up like?"
The man in black was extremely arrogant, and then he even kicked the disciple who was sleeping on the ground.
A major battle was imminent, and the Sword Sect members no longer wanted to be passive.
They all brandished their weapons, unleashing their spiritual and mental power.
"Charge! These people are going too far!"
"Bang! Bang!..."
A fight broke out here, and the situation at Wuyou Pavilion is also not optimistic.
As time passed, the spiritual energy also dissipated, and the men in black continued to press forward, attacking the barrier relentlessly.
"Snap!..." A crack appeared.
"Senior brother, what should we do? Our magic is about to break!"
"Hold on!"
Who knew that the cracks would multiply and break through the first barrier.
"Hahaha... You guys are really naive, thinking you can counterattack with such a simple formation? Dream on! Charge!"
The leader of the men in black wore a smug smile as he directed his men to attack the people from Wuyou Pavilion.
The scene was somewhat chaotic, but not very clear; the men in black stood out conspicuously among the white-clad figures.
Seeing the fierce battle, they realized that the disciples of Wuyou Pavilion were about to give up.
At the critical moment, a man in black took a disciple of Wuyou Pavilion hostage.
He held a dagger firmly against the man's neck.
"You all need to stop now! If he resists again, he'll die!"
The people from Wuyou Pavilion wanted to go forward and rescue their junior brother, but they were surrounded by men in black.
They were also drenched in sweat and were feeling somewhat exhausted.
Seeing this, Xie Zhou realized it was time for him to take action.
He swiftly used his light-foot technique to fly over.
"Thank you, Senior Sister!"
He gathered spiritual energy in his hands and hurled a ball of spiritual energy, striking the black-clad man's arm. The man winced in pain and pulled his arm back, allowing the disciple to catch his breath. Taking advantage of this opening, Xie Zhou kicked the black-clad man in the chest.
He scooped up the disciple of Wuyou Pavilion and saved him.
With Xie Zhou's help, the situation began to reverse. The men in black were completely overwhelmed by Xie Zhou, and they had no tricks up their sleeves. She released her powerful mental energy and took control of the entire situation, leaving the men utterly powerless to fight back.
The people from Wuyou Pavilion and Sword Sect didn't even need to lift a finger, as they were protected by her powerful array.
"Pfft... Ahh..."
"Boss, let's hurry up and leave! This guy is too strong."
The leader of the men in black stared intently at the woman in front of him, his eyes filled with murderous intent. He gritted his teeth and fled in panic under the cover of the other men in black.
After driving off the men in black, Xie Zhou chuckled and joked, "Come visit again sometime! Next time, I guarantee there will be blood!"
It's truly hateful that this group of men in black attacked their disciples without any apparent purpose!
The disciple who was rescued immediately stepped forward to express his gratitude.
"Thank you……"
"No, no need."
"Thank goodness you came back, senior sister, otherwise we would have been in big trouble!"
"Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on the remaining disciples? They've all run out!"
Xie Zhou looked at the disciples on both sides, a hint of anger in his eyes.
She spoke with the air of an elder giving a lecture, while the disciples of Wuyou Pavilion kept their heads down, their faces showing some embarrassment.
