“Boss, what’s wrong?”
Seeing Qin Wushuang silent, Bao Bao could not help but ask.
Qin Wushuang regained his thoughts and asked with a smile: “After your discussions, did you two come to a conclusion?”
Bao Bao rushed to speak: “It’s simple, I think our team appears to be at the frontline. In fact, we might just be a fake team to draw the attention of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan to make them feel that they could take the advantage by launching an attack. Then, they would ambush from the two sides to lure them out. In general, it’s better to attack the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan in their castle.”
Qin Wushuang turned to look at the Purple Flame Electric Beast: “Second, what do you think?”
Lone chuckled: “I’m too lazy to think about it, but what Third said makes sense.”
“Boss, from your expression, you don’t think so.” Bao Bao was curious.
“Yes, the matter would not be as simple as it looks. I think there is a deeper layer to this matter.”
“A deeper layer?” Bao Bao raised his eyebrows to show his confusion and question.
Qin Wushuang said: “If it’s just to lure the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan into attacking, I think this move is, needless to say, too shallow. The Hundred Leaf Qin Clan has stood in the Xuan Yuan Mound for thousand of years, they would not have remained standing if they could not see through this little trick.”
“Since the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan can see through it, why were they still persistent in doing it? It only proves that this move is not as simple as you guys think!”
As soon as Qin Wushuang did some thinking, he had a deeper understanding on this matter than Bao Bao.
“Boss, if it’s not simple, just how is it not simple? Don’t keep us in the dark.”
A strange smile emerged from the corner of Qin Wushuang’s mouth: “This non-simple thing lies with the other General Manager’s teams and the whereabouts of Commander Chen. I guessed that they must have set up ambush on the left and right sides. On the contrary, it’s highly possible that they have headed to all the major fortresses of the Qin castle and could launch an attack at any time. We are here only as a diversion and as a doubt to confuse the eyes of the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan. To say it bluntly in three words—A diversion tactic! Despite acting secretive, nothing is going on here. The real core of this scheme will happen at other places!”
Bao Bao drew a breath of cold air and mumbled: “For sure this is a vicious tactic. If this is the case, if the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan directed all their eyes toward our direction, wouldn’t they have fallen into their trap directly?”
Revealing a stern expression, Qin Wushuang said in a low voice: “I believe that it would be impossible for the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan to not have a single wise person. As long as one is willing to think, it’s not difficult to come to this possibility. Even if the matter does not develop towards this direction, they must make all necessary preparations. Or else, as soon as they let down their guard and lose focus, when all fortresses gets attacked at the same time, the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan would fall into a disadvantage. It’s even possible that their defenses would all be broken through at once!”
These was not frightening words to scare people, but something that would happen as a possibility.
However, Qin Wushuang firmly believed that the entire Hundred Leaf Qin Clan must have grasped some sense of it.
Just as he was dwelling on the thought, suddenly, three short sharp whistles emerged from outside the tent.
“Enemy attack?” Bao Bao jumped up instantly.
Qin Wushuang’s expression changed: “Could it be that the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan has come to attack the camp?”
“Let’s go look!” Lone also stood up and was about to dash to the outside. Qin Wushuang pulled him to a stop and slowly shook his head: “Don’t be hasty.”
“Third, use your underground drilling technique to scout out how many people the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan sent to attack this place, and who they are.”
Naturally, Bao Bao was an expert in this area.
Upon receiving the instruction, Bao Bao twisted his body and drilled into the ground.
Another three short whistles emerged and all the people from each tent extended their heads out. Each of those people who was able to participate in this mission were all very skilled people. Although feeling panicked under this situation, they did not become disorganized.
Qin Wushuang and Lone exchanged a glance and also walked out from the tent.
General Manager Su brought his four trusted aides to form a semi-circle at the front. The other powerhouses each occupied their own corners at the places where their tents were set up. They were not in a rush to make the next move. Apparently, before General Manager Su delivered the next order, they would not act on their own.
Just when General Manager Su was about to speak he saw Qin Wushuang and Lone, Bao Bao popped up from the ground and dropped right before these two.
This underground technique was not some impressive technique. General Manager Su only glared at them when he saw this and did not speak. He only sent in his voice to each person’s head and shouted: “Everyone be careful, someone is here to seize the camp. Stay fully alert. Don’t lose your life before we even attack the Qin castle.”
While General Manager Su sent his message, he continuously observed all the movements in the surrounding.
“Boss, it seems that there are not many enemies.” Bao Bao sent his voice directly to Qin Wushuang.
When Qin Wushuang heard this, he was rather glad inwardly. The less people had come from the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan, the happier he would be. At least, this would prove that the Hundred Leaf Qin Clan had not fallen for the trap.
“Just be careful, remember, your life is your priority.” Qin Wushuang instructed.
All three of them nodded in mutual understanding and formed a triangular formation. This formation would maximize their chances of survival.
“Ha ha, one, two, three, twenty in total!”
In the sky, a strange voice appeared from nowhere. This voice would make one’s blood run cold as it suddenly appeared.
“Twenty, my children, swallow them at your will. This is a feast delivered to our doors.” That cold voice sounded ruthless and did not carry a single trace of human emotion.
“Roar!”
“Great Father, let us take care of it.”
“Ha ha, this is a truly delicious feast. Great Father, I am going first!”
“No rush!” That cold voice from earlier said lightly, “Let me handle that middle-aged man dressed in sumptuous clothing. You will take care of the remaining ones.”
Naturally, the middle-aged man mentioned by this voice was General Manager Su.
General Manager Su gave a cold sneer and made a gesture to motion everyone to pay attention.
Suddenly, four waves of lights burst from the ground. For these rays of lights, one appeared extremely strong and although the other three seemed somewhat weaker, they were still threatening. When these four rays of lights congealed together, it instantly caused the entire sky to become dim.
Inwardly, General Manager Su was also shocked. He shouted: “Elite warriors at the Refined stage are in charge of dealing with those three little ones. Perfect Stages stay on the exterior to assist them! All Advanced Stage retreat to the most exterior side!”
As soon as General Manager Su had given this order, his two most trusted aides next to him at the Refined Stage joined hands with Red Pine Honored Warrior and the other three freelance martial artists to form a circle.
General Manager Su extended his hands and a blue white longsword immediately appeared. He locked onto those four rays of lights from afar. When the four rays of lights had drawn back, four unruly looking people dressed in extremely odd clothing stood there.
One of them had a forthright body and had a spiral hairstyle on top of his head. His hair was wrapped randomly by a few vines and appeared extremely unruly.
As they looked around, they exuded a formidable aura. And besides this person, there stood three people who appeared much younger than that person with the spiral hairstyle.
“My dear children, move!”
That person with the spiral hairstyle laughed and as his hand swung through the air, he grabbed a giant Declaring Flower Hatchet. When he chopped with that hatchet, it seemed to be delivering sharp blades of death as rays of lights peeled from the edge of the hatchet.
“Eat three of my hatchet attacks!” This giant guy with the towering figure possessed an unbelievable speed for his size. He moved his body slightly and like a meteor, he arrived before General Manager Su in an instant.
General Manager Su was gravely shocked. He pulled and twisted the long sword in his hand and immediately formed three sword shields. One after another, the shields went up.
Kang! Kang! Kang!
The crisp sounds of explosion emerged as the edge of the hatchet connected with that air shield. Like a bomb, it exploded loudly in the air.
The impact from this explosion formed huge shock waves that spread everywhere. The airwave caused the people in the surrounding area to feel as if they were in the middle of a violent storm with their body swaying aimlessly like a lotus flower being blown by violent wind.
“Ha ha ha, good kid, you caught my three hatchet moves! Then try something even more greater!” That giant guy gave a mad whistle and waved his hatchet one after another at an outstanding speed. When he wielded the hatchet, it seemed like he was waving an embroidery needle that created endlessly interesting pattern one after another.
Even thought that General Manager Su was using the sword, he was barely on par with the speed of that giant guy.
Clearly, those three people behind that giant guy were his sons. All of them cried out: “Father, let us take care of the others!”
As he spoke, these three people lifted their bodies and turned into rays of lights to throw themselves at Red Pine Honored Warrior and the others. These three brothers also used heavy weapons. It was either the hatchet, or wolf ivory stick, and pumpkin hammer heavy weapons.
With the aura suppressing them, although Red Pine Honored warrior and the others had a greater number on their side, they did not dare to neglect or underestimate the enemies. The five of them reduced their space rapidly and formed a small circle by moving closer to each other. They joined power to form a defensive circle and caught those three shock waves.
Qin Wushuang and the other Perfect Stages wandered around the exterior of the battlefield. Besides Qin Wushuang, the other people all realized that this battle could be a life and death battle. With one careless mistake, it was possible that they would fall here.
Thus, each of them put on a grave expression and did not dare to let down their guard.
Although Bao Bao and Lone were at the Refined Void Martial Stage, they had concealed their strength and did not expose their true identities as part of the Beast Clan. They also only signed up as Advanced Stages. Thus, at this moment, they were in the safest area outside of the battle.
“Everyone listen well, this is a battle between elite warriors at the Void Martial Stage. Us at the Spiritual Martial Force cannot participate. However, this is a crucial moment. Everyone, listen to my commands and be prepared to launch an attack at any moment. Remember, to attack, you must gather all your power and focus your attack on one of them. As long as we kill one of those three, the formation of the other two would get messed up! Then we can destroy them one by one.”
“Yes!”
All Perfect Stage warriors answered in unison. Although Qin Wushuang pretended to accept the orders on the surface, inwardly he was thinking of only staying there and not making any contribution. He prepared to act per the situation and to feign obedience.
