Game Cultivation World: I'm really playing games

Chapter 422 Countermeasures

Xue Tianhan watched as everyone took quick action. Although he was worried about the threat from the players in Sun Quan's camp, he was also pleased with the cohesion and action of his own forces.

"Master, why did the players from Sun Quan's camp suddenly come to this southeast region? What is their purpose?" Xiao Hei jumped onto Xue Tianhan's shoulder and asked in confusion.

Xue Tianhan frowned slightly, and after a moment's contemplation, he said, "The players in Sun Quan's camp have always been ambitious. Players like Trouble the Three Kingdoms and Iron Horse Ice River Dreaming have appeared here. I'm afraid they want to grab a piece of the southeastern region, weaken our power, or even join forces with Ling Hai to drive us out of this area."

"Hmph, they wish! With Xiao Huang and I here, and so many powerful partners, they won't be able to succeed easily!" Xiao Hei said angrily, with a fierce light flashing in his eyes.

"That's right, we must never let their conspiracy succeed. However, we can't be blindly arrogant and must be fully prepared." Xue Tianhan said, looking into the distance with a firm gaze.

At this moment, Xiao Qi walked over. Her face was a little tired, but her eyes remained firm. "Tian Han, the defense deployment has been stepped up, and all strongholds have increased their vigilance."

Xue Tianhan nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Xiaoqi. We must not only strengthen our defenses, but also take the initiative to gather more intelligence on the players in Sun Quan's camp and Ling Hai. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we win every battle."

Xiao Qi smiled and said, "I've already arranged some capable spies. They will quickly find out the enemy's movements. Moreover, we can use the newly established teleportation array to quickly mobilize troops to deal with emergencies."

"Okay, with the teleportation array, our mobility has been greatly enhanced. By the way, the construction of branch sects and the training of monks must also be accelerated to improve our overall strength." Xue Tianhan said.

At this moment, Lady Green Snake and Hu Meiniang also arrived. Lady Green Snake said seriously, "Sir, while we were recruiting monks, we discovered that some spies from Sun Quan's camp had infiltrated. We've already dealt with them. It seems they've already started to attack us."

Hu Meiniang gently waved her folding fan, a cold glint in her eyes. "These spies are truly omnipresent, but they chose the wrong opponent. We will strengthen the review of newly recruited monks and will never let something like this happen again."

Xue Tianhan nodded and said, "Very good. We must remain vigilant to prevent enemy infiltration. Sister Qing, Sister Mei, you will continue to recruit monks, and at the same time strengthen the training and management of existing monks to enhance their combat capabilities."

"Yes, sir!" Madam Green Snake and Hu Meiniang responded in unison.

In the next few days, Xue Tianhan and others were busy and orderly carrying out various preparations.

People and supplies were constantly shuttling back and forth through the teleportation array, and the construction of the branch sect was also in full swing. The newly recruited monks were training hard under the guidance of Lady Green Snake and Hu Meiniang, and their strength was gradually improving.

At the same time, the spies also brought back some important intelligence.

It turned out that the players in Sun Quan's camp had indeed colluded with Ling Hai. They planned to launch a surprise attack before Xue Tianhan's power was completely consolidated, destroy the branch sect and the teleportation array, and weaken Xue Tianhan's power.

"Humph, just as I expected, they really can't wait." Xue Tianhan looked at the intelligence in his hand and sneered, "Since they want to fight, then we will fight with them and let them know how powerful we are!"

"Master, how should we respond?" Xiao Huang asked excitedly, holding the dog spirit stick in his mouth. "Should we take the initiative and catch them off guard?"

Xue Tianhan pondered for a moment and said, "We can't attack rashly. They've come well prepared, so they must have set a lot of traps. We have to take advantage of their plan and set up a counter-encirclement."

Xiao Qi nodded slightly, his eyes gleaming with wisdom. "Tianhan, I understand what you mean. We can set up an ambush around the branch sect and the teleportation array, wait for them to take the bait, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop."

"That's right, Xiaoqi, you and I think the same thing. Sister Qing, Sister Mei, you will be responsible for setting up formations around the branch sect to enhance the defense capabilities and set traps at the same time. Xiaohuang, Xiaohei, you and I will ambush near the teleportation array and wait for the arrival of the enemy." Xue Tianhan arranged things in an orderly manner.

"Yes!" Everyone responded in unison, their eyes full of fighting spirit.

Just as all preparations were in full swing, a spy with rapid breathing rushed into Xue Tianhan's tent in a panic.

"Sect Master Xue, something terrible is happening! Feng Yi and the others seem to be making some moves. There are signs that they are gathering their forces and may very well seize the opportunity to attack Jingzhou or Yizhou!"

Xue Tianhan's expression instantly grew serious. He knew Feng Yi and the others were not to be underestimated. If Jingzhou or Yizhou were lost, their foundation on this continent would be shaken. "I didn't expect Feng Yi and the others to choose this moment to strike. What a calculated plan!"

Xiao Qi frowned, a hint of worry flashing in her beautiful eyes. "Tian Han, Jingzhou and Yizhou are extremely important to us and we cannot afford to lose them. But most of our energy is now focused on dealing with the players in Sun Quan's camp and Ling Hai. What should we do?"

Madam Green Snake stroked her sleeves lightly, a fierce glint in her eyes: "Sir, how about I lead some elite disciples and rush back to Jingzhou to provide support and stabilize the rear first?"

Hu Meiniang shook her head slightly and calmly analyzed, "Sister Qing, our ambush plan is almost complete. If we withdraw a large number of troops now, not only will our plan be flawed, but we may also be ambushed on the way back to Jingzhou."

Xue Tianhan nodded slightly, agreeing with Hu Meiniang's point of view: "Sister Mei is right. We can't easily disrupt the existing deployment. So, I will immediately send a message to No. 2 and No. 3, asking them to prepare in advance, strengthen their defenses with their own strength, and delay as much time as possible.

At the same time, activate the hidden cultivators in the two locations and have them cooperate with the operation and hold out until we return to support us."

"Master, should we continue with our plan?" Xiao Hei asked anxiously.

Xue Tianhan's eyes were firm as he said in a deep voice, "The plan remains the same! We must fight quickly and decisively, eliminate the players in Sun Quan's camp and Ling Hai's forces, and then immediately return to support Jingzhou and Yizhou.

"The Sun Quan camp and Ling Hai are coming at us with such force. If we retreat, not only will our previous efforts be wasted, but they will become even more arrogant. Only by defeating them first will we have enough strength to deal with Feng Yi and the others."

After hearing Xue Tianhan's words, everyone nodded in agreement, and their eyes were filled with fighting spirit again.

After everything was arranged, Xue Tianhan and others waited quietly for the arrival of the enemy.

They knew very well that this would be an extremely difficult battle. Not only were there threats from the Sun Quan camp players and Ling Hai in the front, but there were also Feng Yi and others who were eyeing them covetously from behind.

Finally, on a dark and windy night, the players from Sun Quan's camp and Ling Hai led a large number of cultivators and quietly approached the branch sect and the teleportation array.

They thought their plan was well-thought-out, but they didn't know that they were walking step by step into the trap set by Xue Tianhan.

The night is as dark as ink, so thick that it seems impossible to dissolve.

The players of Sun Quan's camp, led by the disruptor of the Three Kingdoms, marched towards the branch sect in a mighty force.

The troublemaker of the Three Kingdoms rode on a crimson Fire Qilin with flames surging all over its body. The long sword in his hand flashed with a cold light and shouted loudly: "Xue Tianhan, if you know what's good for you, quickly give up the southeastern territory, otherwise our men will show no mercy!"

Iron Horse and Ice River entered the dream, riding Prison Ox, his expression stern, his spear pointed at the ground, following closely behind. He whispered a warning: "Third brother, don't underestimate the enemy. Snowy and cold are definitely not easy to deal with. You must not be careless in this operation."

However, the troublemakers of the Three Kingdoms turned a deaf ear and continued to rush to the front with great momentum.

When they approached the branch sect gate, suddenly, the runes on the ground shone brightly, and invisible barriers rose up instantly, blocking their way.

Xue Tianhan, sword in hand, stood on the high wall of the branch sect and sneered, "You think you can break in so easily? Today, I will make sure you never come back!"

After saying that, he swung the sword in his hand, and a sharp sword energy swept towards the enemy.

Lady Green Snake and Hu Meiniang were not to be outdone. Lady Green Snake danced with the soft sword in her hand, and the sword shadows were heavy, lashing at the enemies who tried to break through the barrier; Hu Meiniang waved the dragon bone whip in the air, coordinating with Lady Green Snake's attack.

Players in Sun Quan's camp cast spells and used weapons to resist. For a moment, the light of spells and the sound of weapons clashing intertwined and echoed through the night sky.

At the same time, near the teleportation array, Xiao Qi, Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei hid in the dark, quietly waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

After a while, Ling Hai appeared in sight with a group of monks who were controlled by his black magic.

Ling Hai sneered and said, "Xiao Qi, let's see how you can resist today!"

Xiao Qi's eyes flashed, and he whispered, "Do it!"

Xiao Huang and Xiao Hei rushed out like arrows. Xiao Huang waved the dog spirit stick, and the shadow of the stick flashed, hitting the controlled monks to retreat again and again.

Xiao Hei uses his teleportation ability to appear behind the enemy unexpectedly and launch a fatal attack.

Holding the Heavenly Sword, Xiao Qi charged into the enemy group with a nimble figure. As a powerful cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, her swordsmanship was exquisite, and every swing of her sword could take the life of an enemy.

Seeing this, a trace of panic flashed in Ling Hai's eyes, but he quickly calmed down. He formed seals with his hands, muttered something, and performed a powerful black magic. Black mist spread out, trying to corrode Xiao Qi's body.

However, Xiao Qi was prepared. She quickly channeled her spiritual energy, forming a protective shield around her body to block the attack. Then, she took out a high-level talisman, infused it with spiritual energy, and threw it towards Ling Hai.

The talisman shone brightly in the air, forming a powerful restriction that interrupted Ling Hai's black magic.

Ling Hai's face changed and he exclaimed, "You... you actually have such a method!"
