Chapter 293: Thunder like attack
Just when the night fell, the elite disciples of Cloud Mist Sect quietly left under the leadership of Zhu Sijia, rushing towards Black Cauldron Sect on the same night.
The number of people was small, only 1600 people, but every one of them was elite. Armor, sharp sword, hooked rope……, they were armed to the teeth and had all equipment. With these more than one thousand elites suddenly rushing over, the defenseless Black Cauldron Sect would definitely be caught unprepared.
Under the leadership of Zhu Sijia, these more than one thousand people were in neat order. They took shortcuts and were engrossed in hurrying with their journey, quickly proceeded to Black Cauldron Sect. After experiencing a series of storms, Zhu Sijia’s specialty in the aspect of commanding and organizing had gradually emerged. And when handling affairs, now, she was even more decisive. Not many male disciples could match her in the aspect of decisiveness now. This kind of specialty was much better than her talent in alchemy.
As for Ye Chuan, he had already left ahead with Little Long’er, disappearing in the boundless night sky.
Ye Chuan had only one mission, i.e. reach Black Cauldron Sect first, then destroy the restriction of Black Cauldron Sect before the army arrives, letting the main force drive straight in.
The speed of Zhu Sijia and others was very fast, but compared to Little Long’er, there was a heaven and earth’s gap.
Not long after, Little Long’er with Ye Chuan on his back arrived at Black Cauldron Sect.
Under the veil of night, the entrance gate of Black Cauldron Sect was very quiet, there were not many guards on duty. The majority was old, weak, sick and disabled. In order to successfully attack Five Style Sect in one fell swoop, Tuoba Xiong had made a reckless move once again. He had taken away practically all disciples that could fight.
Throughout his life, Tuoba Xiong dared to take risks. Originally, the successor to the throne of Sect Master was another person, but he had taken risks to snatch it when he was young. Many years ago, Black Cauldron Sect was mediocre, among three major sects of Cloud Mist Mountain Range, it wasn’t outstanding at all, but he took risks to pull chestnuts out of the fire, slowly expanding the sect.
Perhaps, he had considered everything thoroughly, or perhaps, he was lucky, during the first half of his life, Tuoba Xiong had succeeded in the overwhelming majority of adventurers, making him successful and famous. But, the most recent adventure, i.e., exploration of Demonic Dragon Paradise Realm made him suffer disastrous loss. This time, he ventured to attack Five Style Sect, attempting to take advantage of this time to swallow it up Five Style Sect that had also similarly suffered heavy loss. If this venture was successful, then he could replenish the loss, and take a solid step towards the unification of the entire Cloud Mist Mountain Range, but if he failed, then he will have nothing!
Ye Chuan lurked in the grove while quietly observing the gate of Black Cauldron Sect. And finding a good chance, he took action.
The gate of Black Cauldron Sect was a solid fortress with layer upon layer of restriction around it. So, although the sect was defenseless, the guards weren’t worried. In addition, since it was very late at night, the guards weren’t that strict.
“Come come come, Er Gou, drink another mouthful.”
Behind the window in high position, there were two half reclining guards. Each one had a bottle of wine in their hand. One middle-aged guard raised the wine bottle and said to the guard beside him as he poured wine into his mouth, “Tsk tsk, good wine, I haven’t tasted such a fragrant wine for a long time.”
“Third brother, drink less, it would be bad if other discover this.” Young Er Gou was still somewhat worried, and he added, “Although Sect Master has gone out, Sect Protector Hong Tong is still here, if he discovered this, then we are done for.”
“Fart afraid, that old fellow surnamed Hong, I wondered with which female disciple he is making a merry at this moment, why would he come here to drink the northwest wind? Humph!” [T/N: drink the northwest wind: suffer from cold and hunger]
The middle-aged man snorted and added seemingly having many complaints against that sect protector, “That old bastard, if it was not for him sticking out his leg, then the position of Sect Protector would have been mine, how could it be his turn to climb up to the throne of sect protector? He used his woman to go and purchase people and made connections through his female relatives to climb up, that old bastard is truly shameless.”
“Shoos, lower your voice, Third Brother, you are drunk.” The youth Er Gou was anxious and worried if other people heard or not, so he looked all around.
