His face was grim, his brows furrowed tightly, and his aged features shifted constantly, as if he were thinking of something unpleasant.

The group of Tang Clan members behind them also stopped.

Then they focused their attention on the old man.

Zhang Wang didn't speak immediately. Instead, he stood there pondering for more than ten seconds before slowly asking:

"Has any of you seen the gatekeeper tonight?"

Upon hearing this, the people gathered around all shook their heads.

Tang Wenlong said something,

"I've been trying to contact him, but the gatekeeper hasn't responded."

Tao Tao couldn't help but ask:

"Uncle Wang, what exactly happened?"

The surrounding people also looked on with suspicion.

Although the Tang Clan was subjected to a 'fake attack,' it was still a great provocation, or perhaps a conspiracy by someone. Yet, at this moment, the sect leader did not appear.

Very wrong!

Zhang Wang's already furrowed brows furrowed even more deeply. He forced himself to calm down and asked in a low voice:

"Did you bring the 'Guanyuan' (viewing garden)?"

Guanyuan...a unique item within the Tang Clan.

It has three very powerful functions.

Investigation and detection.

Mark location.

Information sharing.

It's essentially a simplified version of a radar.

Everyone nodded. Not only that, they had all been specifically instructed to prepare their 'weapons' every night for the next few days.

in case the emergency.

"it is good..."

Zhang Wang nodded slowly, then his eyes narrowed, and he said, word by word:

"Since the sect leader is not here, I will temporarily take over his position."

"Now I command you to use all your skills to eliminate tonight's intruders without holding back!"

"Remember, it means holding nothing back!"

Tang Wenlong's eyes narrowed.

"Uncle Wang, the intruder is...?"

Zhang Wang said coldly:

"All nature!"

"From now on, we will all maintain open communication and then approach Tangzhong in a dispersed manner to strive for a comprehensive investigation!"

"Tang Tomb...Master Wang...Why are we going to Tang Tomb?" Tang Wenlong asked, puzzled.

Zhang Wang gritted his teeth and said:

"If there's anything about the Tang Clan worth exploring, it's the Tang Tomb!"

Tang Miaoxing...

Are you kidding me?!

The reason they previously agreed to let Bai Yuan join the Tang Sect was to train the next generation.

But at this time, they lost contact... and the same was true for Akiyama!

He said there were no ghosts... but he didn't believe it!

But now, Zhang Wang can only rely on himself!

at this time,

Suddenly, Gao Nan, a slender mechanic with two large front teeth and a face full of freckles, spoke up.

"Brother Wang! Someone has triggered the trap I set up!"

"These are the hidden weapons you had me meticulously prepare for several days in advance..."

Chapter 244 Zhang Chulan: It turns out I'm the one who dragged everyone down!

"Zhang Chulan! Tell me now, who said the company ordered Tang Sect to dismantle the dangerous equipment?!"

Lu Linglong dodged a barrage of hidden weapons with several quick flips.

At this moment, he couldn't help but angrily question her.

Zhang Chulan was a little dumbfounded when he saw Lu Linglong staring at him with wide eyes.

The bamboo arrows that had just shot out from all directions suddenly flew towards them.

Each tip was incredibly sharp, piercing into the surrounding trees at an extremely fast speed!

The thick sawdust was easily penetrated.

It's almost a no-brainer.

The device that fired these bamboo arrows was definitely a crossbow, which is a prohibited item.

and,

The bamboo arrows have also undergone special treatment, making them far harder than usual.

If it hits a person, it can easily tear off a large chunk of flesh!

Zhang Chulan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and swallowed hard.

"That doesn't make sense... Mr. Zhao wouldn't lie to me about this."

"Furthermore, the company comes here for inspection every year to ensure that the Tang Clan does not possess weapons of concentrated fire to avoid unnecessary trouble. I believe the company will not be careless about this..."

Lu Linglong blinked.

"You mean... these hidden weapons were only recently deployed?"

When it comes to this,

Zhang Chulan turned his gaze to Bai Yuan.

There was some uncertainty in his eyes...

Under the dense attack of bamboo arrows just now.

As he dodged, he witnessed an astonishing scene...

That is, Bai Yuan remained completely calm!

At first glance, it's not surprising.

However, the density of the bamboo arrows was almost like a hail of bullets. Bai Yuan, who was in the midst of the attack, remained calm. It seemed that he had anticipated the trajectory of all the bamboo arrows that were shot at him. He stood still and simply turned his body to the side to dodge all the attacks!

Unmoved by even a fraction of a step, as steady as Mount Tai

This gave him a sense of...

An illusion of anticipation!

Facing the gazes of Zhang Chulan and Lu Linglong, Bai Yuan shook his neck.

"You guessed right, the Tang Clan's newly added hidden weapons... are specifically designed to target me."

Zhang Chulan couldn't help but blurt out,

"Why...?"

The Tang Sect is absolutely aware of Bai Yuan's strength.

What use is a hidden weapon of this caliber to someone who can rival the Celestial Master?

Xia Liuqing responded with a cold smile:

"Zhang Chulan, what do you think is the reason why Quanxing openly and legitimately visited Tangmen and had the Tangmen members come out to greet them?"

Because why...

Zhang Chulan froze on the spot!

Lu Linglong looked at this scene with a puzzle in her eyes.

"Because of what?"

Xia Liuqing chuckled,

"Of course, it's for exchanging martial arts techniques..."

Feng Baobao stood behind, blinking in bewilderment.

Lu Lin seemed to be deep in thought.

Lu Linglong realized what was happening, looked at Bai Yuan, pointed to the mechanism that had just been triggered, and said uncertainly:

"Use...use this to exchange martial arts techniques?"

Bai Yuan nodded and smiled:

"The Tang Clan is famous for its hidden weapons, which is... normal."

When the voice was halfway through,

Bai Yuan raised one hand, without moving his body, and pinched a dagger that was aimed at his temple with two fingers.

After saying the last two,

Bai Yuan casually tossed out the dagger he had been holding.

Phew——!

The dagger shot straight at a tree to the right rear, like a bullet.

boom--!

The dagger thrown by Bai Yuan pierced through the thick tree trunk.

The impact it generated actually pierced a hole the size of a washbasin through the middle of the tree trunk!

The area that was pierced was completely hollowed out.

The figure that had been hiding in the treetops was now sweating profusely!

so far so good...

Tang Wenlong stared in horror at the tree where he had just been crouching.

That hole, the size of a washbasin, if it hit him...

It's either death or serious injury!

Fortunately, he was cautious from the beginning.

The moment the hidden weapon was thrown, it silently changed position!

That's how we escaped unscathed without any real danger.

Tang Wenlong's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty after his position changed.

That last strike was a strike where he found the perfect angle and position, and used all his energy and spirit to deliver it!

That's equivalent to his full effort.

His supposedly perfect sneak attack... was so easily neutralized!

Damn!
