If you didn't know that this was the Soul Town Street that Li Laoyi once guarded, you might have thought it was the stronghold of the Hall of Heroes!

"It should be soon..."

Yuan Xichen nodded, "The scenery here is beautiful, it doesn't seem like there are any bandits causing trouble. That black building should be on that mountain over there..."

He pointed to a desolate mountain in the distance, which seemed out of place compared to the beautiful scenery here...

"They're here..."

Not far in front of or behind the main army, Yue Yunxuan was followed by a group of fully armed soldiers who were riding horses toward them.

As soon as Li Moxuan raised his hand, the army behind him stopped immediately. Yue Yunxuan rode up to Li Moxuan and immediately dismounted, and the soldiers behind him followed suit.

Yue Yunxuan glanced at Li Moxuan, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes. The one being guarded in the middle should be Tanlang, but he hadn't expected him to be such a young boy...

Suppressing his inner surprise, Yue Yunxuan cupped his hands and asked, "You must be Lord Tanlang, right?"

Li Moxuan nodded and asked, "How is Lao Yi doing?"

"His condition has stabilized, but he is still unconscious..."

I see...

Li Moxuan frowned slightly. "Lead the way! Let's go check on him!"

"it is good!"

Under Yue Yunxuan's leadership, the entire army began to move and soon successfully occupied Wumu Street.

The sudden appearance of such a large army in Wumu Street was bound to attract attention, such as from Heilou, who received the news very quickly.

"What? A large army has entered Wumu Street?"

Inside the Black Tower stronghold, the fifth leader, Wu Tiangui, stared in disbelief at the soldier who came to report.

Fourth Chieftain Chang Xiangpo's expression was grave. "It should be the Greedy Battalion's army. I've heard that the man surnamed Li seems to be an officer of the Greedy Battalion..."

Chapter 71: Reaping the Benefits of Others

As an organization that could rival the Hall of Heroes, the Greedy Camp had naturally heard of its reputation, especially the reputation of the Killing Emperor Diao Lingyun, who also possessed the strongest human martial spirit.

"What's the panic?"

Third Chieftain Yang Bogong said nonchalantly, "As long as that Diao Lingyun doesn't come, it's fine. Anyway, we have plenty of people under our command..."

The chieftain, Dai Yu, sat in the main seat with a furrowed brow. "How many of them are there?"

"I don't know, there were so many of them!"

So, quite a few people came...

"Shamper, show him!"

Chang Xiangpo took out Diao Lingyun's portrait and asked, "Is this woman among the leaders?"

After looking him over, the soldier nodded sharply. "It seems there is such a person..."

The atmosphere around them instantly became heavy. Yang Bogong couldn't understand, "Why would Tanlang send Diao Lingyun to besiege us just for Li Laoyi?"

Wu Tiangui gritted his teeth, "That's right, that Li guy killed our second brother, and we only injured him!"

It's clear from any angle that the black market is the one that's at a disadvantage!

"The people from the Greedy Camp have always been so domineering and tyrannical, how could they possibly reason with us?"

Dai Yu took a deep breath, and the corners of his mouth suddenly turned up slightly. "Don't forget, everyone, we still have a guest near the village!"

Yang Bogong was taken aback. "You mean Wu Renlong from the Hall of Heroes?"

Wu Renlong arrived here two weeks ago, leading three thousand troops from the Hall of Heroes stationed on the other side of the mountain. He said he was sent by Xiang Kunlun to recruit the Black Tower.

He also threatened that if they did not agree to be granted amnesty, Xiang Kunlun would soon lead 100,000 troops from the Hall of Heroes to wipe out the Black Tower.

They didn't know whether Wu Renlong was telling the truth or not, so they could only leave him aside for the time being and serve him fine wine and delicacies every day.

Fortunately, Wu Renlong was also enjoying himself...

Wu Tiangui seemed to have thought of something, and a wild smile suddenly appeared on his face. "Boss, do you want the Hall of Heroes and the Greedy Camp to fight like dogs?"

Now, people in the underworld generally know that the Hall of Heroes and the Greedy Camp are both organizations that serve the Spirit Realm, but the two organizations have never fought each other.

If they can instigate a fight between Wu Renlong and the Greedy Camp, whichever side wins, the other side will definitely retaliate, and the Black Tower can reap the benefits.

"That's right!"

A smile appeared on Dai Yu's face, and he immediately instructed, "Xiang Po, have someone take some gold, silver, and fine wine to Wu Renlong's camp. You should know what to do with the rest."

"Of course, leave it to me!"

Chang Xiangpo stroked her chin, her face full of anticipation. She couldn't wait to see the Hall of Heroes and the Greedy Camp get completely outmaneuvered by them.

On the other side, Wumu Street.

Wen Zuoyi and Yan Zhuangyao stayed behind to garrison the army outside the village, while Li Moxuan, Diao Lingyun, and Yuan Xichen stepped into the village.

Soon, led by Yue Yunxuan, they successfully entered the attic and found Li Laoyi lying unconscious on the bed.

Old Li's body was wrapped in bandages, and there were many blood-stained gauze and tissues in the trash can next to him, indicating that he was seriously injured.

Sitting on a chair next to Old Li's bed was a young girl with long white hair.

The girl wore a string of seashell bracelets on her wrist, dressed in simple linen clothes, and exuded the unique spiritual energy of the dead, so she should also be a person from this village.

At this moment, her two fair hands were tightly holding Li Laoyi's hand, and she was quietly looking at his face.

Looking at the girl, Diao Lingyun's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly. It seemed that her relationship with Li Laoyi was not quite right!

"Sister Jia Ning, Big Brother's friend has come to see him!"

Yue Yunxuan stepped forward, wanting to persuade her to move aside, but the girl remained unmoved as if she hadn't heard him, and just quietly looked at Li Laoyi.

Seeing this, Yue Yunxuan gave a helpless smile and apologized to Li Moxuan, "I'm sorry, Sister Jia Ning was probably too worried about Big Brother..."

"It's alright!"

Li Moxuan waved his hand, "Let's go outside and talk!"

As Li Moxuan walked out of the room, Diao Lingyun followed.

Yuan Xichen, who remained at the back, stared at the girl for a while, his brows furrowing slightly. Yue Yunxuan, seeing this, quickly stepped forward to block Yuan Xichen.

"Um... let's get out of here quickly! I'll tell you about the situation with the Black Building..."

Yuan Xichen glanced at him, then looked away and turned to walk out of the room. This kid had just emitted a faint killing intent towards him; that was interesting…

Upon arriving in the living room, Yue Yunxuan hurriedly poured tea for Li Moxuan and Diao Lingyun, who were sitting on the sofa.

Yuan Xichen, who was leaning against the door, declined his offer, saying that she did not drink tea.

After pouring the tea, Yue Yunxuan sat down and began to recount the situation of the Black Tower, "The Black Tower has a total of five leaders, who are..."

"We know all of that!"

Li Moxuan, who had just taken a sip of tea, interrupted him and asked, "I heard that the First Elder killed one, but I wonder which one it was?"

"It's Zhu Wan, the second leader of the Black Tower..."

At this point, Yue Yunxuan's face was full of shame, "If I had arrived sooner, perhaps my brother wouldn't have been so badly injured..."

Yuan Xichen observed him for a moment, and the ashamed expression on his face seemed genuine, so it appeared that there was nothing wrong with his relationship with Lao Li.

Was his murderous intent towards me just now because of that girl?

“Yunxuan…”

Li Moxuan interrupted him again, "There's no need to blame yourself. After all, even Lao Yi himself didn't expect to be tricked by those guys!"

Then, he asked Yuan Xichen, "Do you have any more healing pills?"

Yuan Xichen withdrew his gaze from Yue Yunxuan, nodded, took out a healing pill, and tossed it to Yue Yunxuan, "Give one to Old Li, he should wake up by the time we get back!"

Yue Yunxuan caught the healing pill, carefully examined the white pill in his hand, and after checking it with his spiritual power to confirm that there was no problem, he thanked Li Moxuan and went into the room.

"This kid's still wary of me!"

Yuan Xichen pursed his lips, but this also showed that his relationship with Lao Li should be fine, so there was no need to worry too much.

Not long after, Yue Yunxuan came out and thanked Li Moxuan again. Li Moxuan took the opportunity to ask, "Yunxuan, do you have a map of the area around the Black Building?"

He had observed that Yue Yunxuan's soldiers were elite, in no way inferior to the soldiers of the Greedy Battalion.

Since there is an army there, and so many sentries, both visible and hidden, they must have a map of the surrounding terrain.

"Yes, it's in the military camp next door. Please follow me!"

Yue Yunxuan led Li Moxuan and the other two toward the Yue Family Army camp next door. Although the camp was not large, it had all the necessary facilities.

Upon entering Yue Yunxuan's tent, a huge military sand table came into view.

The sand table not only displayed the terrain near Wumu Street, but also showed the exposed and concealed sentries of Yue Fei's army, clearly indicating that they did not intend to guard against Li Moxuan and his group...

Chapter 72: People from the Hall of Heroes Arrive

After leading Li Moxuan and the other two to the sand table, Yue Yunxuan remained silent and quietly observed them.

He wanted to see if these members of the Greedy Camp were really as formidable as his elder brother had described...

"How so? Do you have a general plan?"

After looking at it carefully for a while, Li Moxuan asked Yuan Xichen, who was standing to the side.

"Hmm, that's about right..."

"Alright, let's go back and prepare to attack the Black Building!"

Yue Yunxuan was stunned. "No, aren't you going to listen to whether the plan is feasible?"

Seeing that the three were about to leave, Yue Yunxuan hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "May I accompany the army?"

Seemingly afraid they would misunderstand, Yue Yunxuan explained again, "Those guys injured my older brother so badly. I promised him at his bedside that I would personally avenge him..."

"please……"

Li Moxuan pondered for a moment, "Do you want to bring your men along?"
