Although Yu Jinting was the young master of the Red Flower Gang, the Red Flower Gang was just a small gang affiliated with the Songyang Sect. Its status was not high enough to qualify it to go to Songyang Mountain, so when he came to report the news, he was arranged to stay in a village near Songyang.

After picking up the people, the convoy did not stop, and Zhang Ji ordered them to continue on their journey.

There were many carriages and horses along the way, and they rarely stopped. After seven or eight days, they arrived at Kuiyang City, where the Red Flower Gang was located. It was said that in ancient times, a Kui beast had appeared in this small city, which was later shot to death by a great god in mythology and turned into a Kuiyang Mountain, hence the name.

There was originally a group of bandits on Kuiyang Mountain, but they were not very powerful. Although they also went down the mountain to plunder, they were only after money and rarely killed people.

After the Blood Wolf Riders occupied the stronghold on Kuiyang Mountain, they killed the bandit leader and subdued the bandits. They then occupied Kuiyang Mountain and used it as a base to plunder everywhere.

The Red Flower Gang also participated in the encirclement and suppression organized by the government. Although the gang leader had some martial arts skills, he was no match for the fierceness of several leaders of the Blood Wolf Riders and was killed by the second leader of the Blood Wolf Riders during the fight.

Zhang Ji was about to order the convoy into the city when Sun Yanwan, who had been practicing hard in the carriage for the past few days and had rarely been seen, jumped out of the carriage, looked out at Kuiyang Mountain in the distance, and said, "Brother Zhang Ji! Let's not enter the city. Let's go to Chengjiazhuang ahead to rest."

Zhang Ji asked, "Why did Junior Brother Sun go to Chengjiazhuang?"

Sun Yanwan hadn't gotten off the carriage in the past few days, but people from the Tianji Sun family had come several times to deliver news. They already knew the situation in Kuiyang City and most of the Blood Wolf Cavalry's strengths and weaknesses. They laughed and said, "Kuiyang City can't accommodate so many carriages, and it's not convenient for everyone to stay."

Chengjiazhuang is very large and is closer to Kuiyang Mountain. Now that the Cheng family has been killed by the Blood Wolf Riders, it would be most convenient for us to stay there for a few days.

"Besides, I want to explore the village of Kuiyang Mountain at night. It's too far to walk from the city. Chengjiazhuang is closer."

Zhang Ji pondered for a moment and said, "Okay."

As expected, the convoy did not enter the city. After traveling for another half day, they arrived at Chengjiazhuang.

The Cheng family was originally the richest family in Kuiyang City, owning a thousand acres of fertile land, seven or eight shops, and a large family of sixty or seventy people. However, as a wealthy family in a small place, although they employed some long-term and short-term workers, they still had to work in the fields.

When the Blood Wolf Riders came, they killed everyone in the village, but there were still a few people in the Cheng family who escaped because they were working in the fields.

When the convoy arrived at Chengjiazhuang, an old man with several young men came to greet them and shouted, "Gentlemen, this manor is no longer habitable. Please return to Kuiyang City."

Zhang Ji smiled slightly and said, "It will take another half day to go back to the city. Why don't I give you some money and stay here for one night? We can leave tomorrow morning."

Zhang Ji threw half a string of coins over. The old man hesitated for a moment, reluctant to part with the coins, and said, "You all can stay here, but we have no more fodder."

Zhang Ji, a man of great experience, negotiated for a while, added some copper coins, and persuaded the old man. He came back and shouted, "Let's go into the village first."

Sun Yanwan was in the carriage, his ears twitching slightly, and he whispered, "Two sisters, come with me secretly." Sun Lingdie and Namco didn't ask why. They used light skills to sneak out of the carriage with him.

Among the ninth meridian that Sun Yanwan opened up, seven belonged to the eight extraordinary meridians and the twelve main meridians, but there were also two that belonged to the thirty-six hidden meridians, one was Di Ting and the other was Yue Hua.

The hidden meridians are shorter than the eight extraordinary meridians and the twelve main meridians, have fewer acupoints, and can store less true energy than the eight extraordinary meridians and the twelve main meridians, but each hidden meridian can provide some supernatural powers.

For example, listening to the ground can greatly increase Sun Yanwan's hearing ability. If he uses true energy to focus on his ears, he can also enhance his hearing.

He just heard people whispering in the manor, so he took Sun Lingdie and Namco to check it out.

Sun Yanwan has opened up nine meridians. Although he has not yet learned the Wind Riding Art, his lightness skills are much stronger than before. Although he is still not as good as Sun Lingdie, and far inferior to Namco, he is already quite elegant and graceful.

He sneaked out of the convoy. Linghu Shao and Ding Fenxiu had little cultivation and did not notice it, but Zhang Ji had noticed it long ago. He remained calm and pretended not to know. When arranging the convoy, he deliberately put the car that Sun Yanwan was riding in in the middle.

Sun Yanwan jumped over seven walls in one breath, and finally stepped onto the roof of a green-tiled house. Sun Lingdie followed him onto the roof. Xiumei frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "There are people from the Jianghu."

There were several horses tied in the yard of this blue-tiled house. Each horse was well-groomed, fat and strong, and had no official marks on them. They were obviously fast horses owned by people from the underworld.

Namco floated down to the back wall and leaned against it. After a moment, his expression changed drastically, and he waved at Sun Yanwan. Sun Yanwan, relying on his hidden pulse hearing, had already clearly heard the conversation of the people in the room. He gestured back, took a deep breath, and suddenly sank down through the roof.

Neither Sun Lingdie nor Namco had expected that he would be so "reckless". The two women were anxious, so one of them jumped down and the other slapped the back window with her hand, shattering it. Then she picked up a tree stump in the backyard and smashed it into the room, and then jumped in.

The two women rushed into the room, only to see two men in black lying limply on the ground. One had his chest and abdomen pierced by Lingxi, and the other had a Jingchan stuck in his forehead. Both had been killed by Sun Yanwan, and the other was still fighting with Sun Yanwan. Both sides were fighting fiercely with fists and kicks.

Sun Yanwan did not change his moves, just used the Dragon Elephant Prajna again and again, beating the gray-robed man so hard that he lost his temper. In the small house, this fierce punch left him no room to dodge, and he could only use his internal energy to block it.

Sun Yanwan used the art of listening to the ground to judge the positions of the three people in the room in advance. He went all out and launched a surprise attack. His attack was like thunder and lightning, ruthless and ruthless. He used a move of Hunyuan sword technique on each sword and threw it directly.

The two black-clothed men under the grey-robed man were unable to withstand Sun Yanwan's flying double swords and were killed on the spot. However, the grey-robed man in the lead was extremely skilled in martial arts and took seven or eight of his Dragon Elephant Prajna moves without showing any signs of weakness.

The man in gray robe was not surprised, he was shocked, extremely shocked, and his teeth were about to break.

The two sides exchanged so many moves, and although he was obviously better in martial arts, he was beaten to a pulp by the opponent's fierce and unparalleled boxing.

If the two sides continued to fight, the man in gray robe had the confidence to turn defeat into victory. Who would have thought that this guy had two powerful helpers?
Sun Lingdie raised her hand and two flying knives flew out, and Namco even swung her sword. She practiced the martial arts of both Namco and Emei. In terms of martial arts alone, she was more powerful than almost all the Songyang disciples in Group C.

Of course, Namco’s martial arts training didn’t last five years.

The man in gray robe almost vomited blood. He couldn't understand it no matter what he said. His superiors sent him here just to poison the food. He didn't need to meet the people from Songyang Sect at all. How come his whereabouts were discovered?
