Chapter 1663 - 1663: Assault on Luan Ping

The group of men who came rushing over were exactly those subordinates Luan Ping had just recruited.Corpse Ghost Dragon had entered Medicine King Mountain for quite a few hours without any activity or emergence, leaving the waiting Luan Ping and others outside puzzled, not knowing what was happening inside.

However, Luan Ping dared not harbor any selfish intentions. For one, he knew Corpse Ghost Dragon's strength, and secondly, Corpse Ghost Dragon had poisoned him; without Corpse Ghost Dragon's help, he would be doomed. As a result, he could only wait patiently outside, and to earn merit and further please Corpse Ghost Dragon, he had a sudden idea and ordered his newly recruited subordinates to patrol outside Medicine King Mountain.

In fact, Luan Ping wanted to prevent others from entering Medicine King Mountain. This way, when Corpse Ghost Dragon came out, he would surely praise Luan Ping's efforts. These men were dispersed, patrolling Medicine King Mountain, and it was this very group that discovered Ye Qing and his companions.

The men who chose to side with Corpse Ghost Dragon intended to raise their own status by relying on his power. With Corpse Ghost Dragon backing them, they naturally became arrogant. Upon seeing Ye Qing and the others, they swaggered over, completely unaware of who they were provoking!

Seeing these men, Ye Qing frowned slightly and asked in retort, "Who are you?"

The man widened his eyes and shouted angrily, "Damn it, I asked you a question, and instead of answering, you ask me back! Don't you understand the rules?"

Facing the man's aggressive demeanor, Ye Qing didn't reply but turned to whisper to those beside him, "These people seem to be Corpse Ghost Dragon's crew."

"They definitely are," Bai Li Xi said. "I've been standing atop the mountain, watching closely. Corpse Ghost Dragon drove most people away. The ones remaining obviously sided with him. That old bastard Corpse Ghost Dragon is extremely domineering; he wants to have Medicine King Mountain all to himself and won't let anyone else touch it."

"So it seems Corpse Ghost Dragon has already started sealing the mountain?" Ding Lianshun frowned deeply and said in a low voice, "Looks like we should leave quickly."

"Why the rush to leave?" Bai Li Xi shook his head directly and said, "Corpse Ghost Dragon definitely hasn't come out yet. Think about it, he's been stuck in the deepest part of the great formation. Even if he comes out, it'll take him some time. But we're different; we just got lucky to get out, he doesn't have that luck."

"But we still need to leave first," Ding Lianshun said. "Do we really wait here for him to come out?"

"Why wait for him to come out!" Bai Li Xi glanced at the thirty-plus people and said in a low voice, "Corpse Ghost Dragon will definitely need some time to come out. Taking this opportunity, let's deal with his subordinates first, which will weaken his forces. Otherwise, when he comes out of Medicine King Mountain, with these subordinates, they will still cause trouble for you!"

"That's true." Ye Qing nodded and said, "Mr. Bai Li is right, Corpse Ghost Dragon has big ambitions. After the Medicine King Mountain affair, he will definitely attack us one by one. Taking this opportunity to deal with these henchmen will at least reduce some pressure."

The thirty-plus people over there had no idea what Ye Qing and the others were discussing. Seeing Ye Qing continuously whispering and not answering, they got angry.

"Hey, did you hear what I said!" The leading man angrily walked over, reached out to grab Ye Qing, and shouted, "******, I'm asking you guys a question, and you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ye Qing threw a punch, sending him flying. With Corpse Ghost Dragon's subordinates, Ye Qing didn't hold back at all. With this punch, the person would be seriously injured, if not dead.

The rest of the group was startled by Ye Qing's sudden move, and they all shouted angrily as they rushed up. One of them shouted, "How dare you! Do you know whose men we are? We're subordinates of the Great Necromancer of the Corpse Ghost Dragon and you actually dare..."

"Attack!" Shen Tianjun uttered softly, dashing forward first, charging into the crowd with fists and kicks, completely unrestrained, and in an instant knocked down three people.

Shen Tianjun used to be calm and seldom took action. But after the Shen Family Manor was occupied by Corpse Ghost Dragon, the Shen family's suffering made Shen Tianjun hate Corpse Ghost Dragon to the bone. Seeing Corpse Ghost Dragon's subordinates, he naturally wouldn't be courteous and was the first to strike.

Seeing Shen Tianjun take action, the others didn't remain idle and rushed into the fray. In less than half a minute, under the onslaught of Ye Qing and these masters, over thirty people were knocked to the ground, showcasing the quickness of their actions.

Though Bai Li Xi didn't take action himself, he stepped over, pinning down a man with minor injuries and asked in a deep voice, "Kid, let me ask you, where are the strongest subordinates around Corpse Ghost Dragon now?"

"Why look for the strongest ones?" Ning Qianshu frowned and said, "We can just keep fighting like this; how many subordinates can Corpse Ghost Dragon have?"

"Better not waste time," Bai Li Xi said. "Haven't you seen? These dozens of people have no combat power at all; they're just henchmen for the Corpse Ghost Dragon. Even if you eliminate all of them, it won't shake the power of the Corpse Ghost Dragon. Only by dealing with the masters around the Corpse Ghost Dragon can you solve the fundamental problem, no need to waste time on these people!"

These people were knocked down by Ye Qing and his team, already scared out of their wits. Without Bai Li Xi's interrogation, that person frankly led Ye Qing and his team to Luan Ping.

Luan Ping had just sent all the new recruits out to patrol around Medicine King Mountain, while he remained stationed at the original location. As for the masters personally gathered by the Corpse Ghost Dragon, Luan Ping couldn't command them, thus, these masters were all congregated here.

Three Peak Masters, plus more than thirty Top-Level Masters, constitute the entire lineup of the Corpse Ghost Dragon. As for those whose strength isn't at the top level, they simply don't affect the overall situation, and aren't what Ye Qing and his team need to concern themselves with.

And on Ye Qing's side, there's Shen Tianjun, the masked elder Ding Lianshun, Ning Qianshu, and the Wolf Monk, these are five Peak Masters. Moreover, the masked elder and Shen Tianjun are exceedingly strong, enough to handle any Peak Master. Although Bai Li Xi has lost his inner strength, his prowess hasn't diminished much, still someone Peak Masters can't contend with. Plus, wielding the Sun Shooting Bow, Huangfu Ziyu is comparable to a Peak Master, essentially bringing them to seven Peak Masters.

Moreover, Ye Qing himself isn't weak; at crucial moments, if he truly fights desperately, he can still unleash the power of a Peak Master.

Now eight people are here, which is quite an extraordinary lineup. Dealing with the Corpse Ghost Dragon's followers is hardly a difficult task!

"A good opportunity!" Bai Li Xi, hiding in the woods, full of excitement, whispered, "Old Shen, you and that masked guy, you two pincer from the north. Huangfu Ziyu, you provide aerial support all the way. Ding Lianshun, you and Ning Qianshu advance from the south. Ye Qing, you and I will strike from the east. Wolf Monk, you assist us. This way, we'll surround them in the middle, capturing them like turtles in a jar!"

"With the northeast and south pincering, what about the west?" Ding Lianshun asked in a low voice.

"Nonsense, the west is Medicine King Mountain. If they head west, they'll step into Medicine King Mountain's great formation and likely get lost in it!" Bai Li Xi replied.

Ding Lianshun said, "If really pushed, they might enter that formation. Entering the formation, there's still a chance to come out alive."

"I know, but Peak Masters aren't easy to kill. We're surrounding on these three sides to force them into Medicine King Mountain," Bai Li Xi said. "Even if they're lucky enough to come out, it'll take at least a few days. Even if we can't kill them, at least we can delay for a few days, which is good enough!"

Everyone looked at each other, Bai Li Xi sure has a multitude of ideas. But his plan is quite good, and what he said makes a lot of sense.

"Alright, it's settled then!" Ye Qing decided firmly, "The Corpse Ghost Dragon might emerge at any moment, so we must act quickly. It's not easy to take out those three Peak Masters, so it's best to force them into the formation. As for those Top-Level Masters, kill as many as you can!"

Everyone nodded, and without lingering, according to Bai Li Xi's arrangement, they surrounded from three directions.

Luan Ping sat smugly at the scene, satisfied with his previous arrangement, contemplating how the Corpse Ghost Dragon might commend him afterward. Suddenly, an elder beside him shouted, "Who goes there!"

Luan Ping was taken aback, and he heard some commotion, quickly turning his head to look.

Luan Ping's strength was originally above this elder, but after the Corpse Ghost Dragon drained much of his inner strength, his prowess had greatly diminished, and his hearing was far inferior to the elder's. With someone approaching, he hadn't realized as swiftly.

The ones discovered were precisely Ye Qing and Bai Li Xi. Ye Qing's strength hadn't reached Peak Master level, and as for Bai Li Xi, he outright had no inner strength, thus walking over was naturally directly discovered.

In truth, Ye Qing and Bai Li Xi were still at a distance from these people. The ones who had actually arrived near were Shen Tianjun and his group, given they were all Peak Masters.

"Luan Ping, we meet again!" Ye Qing shouted coldly, no longer hiding himself, and stood out directly.

"Ye Qing!?" Luan Ping frowned, clearly surprised, and asked in a deep voice, "Weren't you already in Medicine King Mountain? How come you're here?"
