"Echo Hill Castle is still closed?"
Xue Ye's tone was one of anxiousness, it was not only him, the other people's faces were filled with worry. The resultin front of them was not what they had expected.
Ambushing the Qin Family did not take much of out them, without Qin Zhen, and with only two generals out of theFour Great Generals surviving, and the absence of Qin Zi Zhen's Archer unit, the Qin Family was at its weakest, sohow could they stop the attacks from the four families?
The Qin Family was completely wiped out by them, they even obtained the Null Division Prisoners, and immediatelysent people to Echo Hill Castle pleading for Ghost Face Mask to return to Purple Cuckoo City. The Qin Familymembers were all plucked out, and the four families were relying on Ghost Face Mask, meaning that Purple CuckooCity was changing Masters.
But what they did not expect was that Echo Hill Castle would close their doors, and even after their men shoutedoutside the castle for half a day, they did not open the gates. Only Ming Zhu replied them once, saying that MasterGhost Face Mask was in closed door training and they would not open the castle until he came out.
When their subordinates returned, everyone looked at each other, at a loss of what to do.
The situation had quickly became subtle. Qin Zheng would definitely be rushing back to Purple Cuckoo City, and ifGhost Face Mask were to return first, they would no longer need to be worried for their safety. Ghost Face Maskwas able to kill Lu Tian Wen, meaning Qin Zhen would not be able to do anything to him.
But who would have known that in such a crucial period, Ghost Face Mask would go into closed door training!
Without the protection of Ghost Face Mask, they did not have any confidence in fighting against Qin Zhen. In the past, they had never truly witnessed any experts on the list of Powerhouses fighting, although they knew that Qin Zhen was much stronger than them, but they never felt pressured.
Until they witnessed The battle between Lu Tian Wen and Ghost Face Mask. They finally understood how powerfulthose on the List&n bsp;of Powerhouses was. Lu Tian Wen was ranked 39 on the list, Qin Zhen was ranked 43, with adifference of only 4 rankings, their standard would not differ much.
If Qin Zhen was to rush back, their four families would be helpless against him, and their four families would end uplike the Qin Family, every single member pulled out and killed, their entire family eradicated.
Everyone turned to look towards Victor.
Victor waved his hand and spoke with a look of innocence: "Although I was the one to come up with the idea, but youguys agreed to it willingly. Furthermore, even if we failed, will my family be spared? My family will not be able toescape his hands."
Roland Su was the first to stand up for Victor: "That's right! It isn't the time to find someone to shirk theresponsibility to, everyone chose this willingly, we should now be sticking together and finding out how to survivethis."
Ben Sen nodded his head and replied: "We best get prepared."
Everyone calmed down and kept quiet, they knew what Ben Sen meant by "getting prepared".
Just at that moment, a scout suddenly flew in to report with an excited expression: "There are people coming fromthe Echo Hill Castle!"
Everyone was immediately roused, the boulder of pressure finally lifted off their chests. At this time, everyone wasfeeling alive again. The feeling of having a powerful expert from the list of Powerhouses coming to kill them atanytime was extremely pressurizing, that formless pressure choked everyone, causing them to be unable to eat andrest well.
Ming Zhu looked at the newly repaired city gates and the people outside welcoming them, feeling extremelyemotional.
On the day where Tang Tian had destroyed the city gates with one punch, she had brought her family out of therubbles with heavy emotions. On that day, she was filled with fear and was in a state of lost, the future in her eyesextremely bleak. At that time, they were all fugitives not knowing whether they would see the light of a new day.
But in the next few days, they had actually returned as victors, and were being welcomed with grandeur back totheir Xue Residence.
Ming Zhu could not help but turn to look at Ghost Face Mask.
It was him who changed everything.
Looking at Xu Ye and the other's respectful smiles towards them, Ming Zhu was filled with even more complexfeelings. She had never thought that there would be such a day, and she believed they did not either. Ben Sen neverthought that after fighting with Ghost Face Mask, he would now be welcoming him back by standing outside thecity. When Xu Ye and the rest talked about Ghost Face Mask in the past, they too would have never imagined thatthey would become his subordinates.
This man, is very powerful.
Not only was he powerful, even his progress was so fast, in the blink of the eye, they had already been thrown farbehind
Upon finishing his training, Tang Tian was dumbstruck when he heard Ming Zhu's report, and was instantly excited. He was thinking about how to save the Null Division Prisoners out from the Qin Family, but did not expect that XuYe and the rest would have already done it for him.
Without further ado, Tang Tian immediately decided to return to Purple Cuckoo City.
He did not care about what the families were thinking of, but as long as he could save all of his brothers, even if theywanted to use him, he did not care.
The change in Purple Cuckoo City had shocked everyone as well, and the first to react was naturally Nie Qiu. Righton the spot, he immediately understood what had happened, and had judged and gauged the situation
But in the considerations of safety, the entire Null Division was mobilized.
The Null Division members all had a great increase in strength.
Han Bing Ning had ignited her Primordial Fire Origin, becoming the only member of the Null Division to have doneso, and also the only one who had enlightened on the Law Surface. In the entire Sin Domain, it was extremely rarefor a person to have both.
Ah Mo Ali's strength had increased as well, he had taken full control over the Null Flames released all around hisbody and became reserved, even his aura had completely changed, from the initial recklessness, he had becomeeven more reserved, and had the bearing of a great general.
Nie Qiu's Yin Yang Formation had already reached preliminary achievements, his formation already possessed anembryonic form. As for the Null Division Members, all of them were all high spirited and were extremely fierce.
Xu Ye and the rest who were at the entrance waiting for Tang Tian were all shaken by the scene of themapproaching.
They could not grasp Ghost Face Mask's depth, but they were able to sense the difference of the rest. When Xu AnZhong saw Han Bing Ning, he almost could not believe his eyes, since when had a swordsman ignited theirPrimordial Fire Origin? ~A swordsman who has ignited their Primordial Fire Origin, t-t-this.... . ~
Ah Mo Li's change also shocked Roland Su. She had a very deep impression of him amongst the Prisoners, onereason being obviously the leader of the group, the other was that he was very straightforward and blunt, wheneverhis companion was being bullied, he was the first to rush over.
Although he was an impulsive person, but as someone who cared deeply for his friends, Roland Su admired.
But after the few days of not seeing him, Ah Mo Li seemed to have changed into a completely different person, hewas very steady and reserved, not emitting any power at all, obviously he had gone through a huge transformationand increase in strength.
Xu Ye and Victor looked at each other, they could see the shock in each other's eyes.
Army formation and tactics have long disappeared in Sin Domain. The current Sin Domain was extremely foreign towards the so called army. But, Xu Ye and Victor were people who came from strong families, and although they were unfamiliar with armies, they still had the knowledge of such.
Over 60 men with a powerful unified aura formed one whole body.
Their breathing tempo were in sync, and if the patriarchs of each families were to close their eyes, they wouldmistake them to be an ancient desolate beast taking in breaths.
When has such an imposing aura appear in the Sin Domain before?
"Where are they?" Tang Tian turned his head and asked.
Xu Ye and the rest immediately awoke from their daydream. Xu Ye immediately said: "Master, please follow me."
When Tang Tian appeared at the barracks which held the prisoners, the dense mass of prisoners became silent for amoment, before erupting into a thunderous roar, shaking the entire city.
Ah Mo Li rushed in excitedly and started patting them here and there. Even the ice cold Han Bing Ning was excited. Even more of them rushed in and started helping their companions remove the light needles from their bodies.
There were many prisoners coming from the Qin Family, other than their original 227 men, the Thiopiate Family had42, the Lu Family had another 200, totalling up to 469 men.
The Xu Family had 92 prisoners, adding Tang Tian's subordinates of 65 men, they had a total of 626 men.
Tang Tian's subordinate's strength immediately swelled, their numbers multiplying by a full 10 times. Nie Qiu'sconfidence swelled by the same amount, to any military general, 60 men and 600 men was totally different figures.
In Heaven's Road, an ordinary standard army had roughly 2000 men, thus 600 could be considered a third of a fullarmy. Of course, for Leo Constellation, their armies usually held more people, but kept it within the thousands.
Nie Qiu finally had the feeling that he could be of use, the scale of 600 men was where he could design war tactics, and the power he could mobilize was much greater.
After probing around the Yin Yang Formation for the past few days, he had some new breakthroughs.
All war tactics principles were identical, and that was to be more efficient in using power. For Nie Qiu, anoutstanding military general, he had some profound achievements in this, although the form of his power hadtransformed, but the principles of tactics had never changed.
Without any hesitation, he brought out a few training requests.
Just like the past, there were no problems, his suggestions were all accepted.
Immediately, Ah Mo Li and Han Bing Ning began to walk into the field, and split the large group into two, each ofthem taking one. They were not not embarrassed at all, unwilling to pass on their own responsibilities to others. Thetwo immediately ordered the members to do thorough check ups with each other, and then to form their ranks.
10 Minutes later, two neat square formations appeared before everybody.
In another two minutes, the two of them brought their own subordinates to choose their own encampments.
The entire process was extremely smooth, there was no noise, no talking, no push and pulling, other than Han BingNing and Ah Mo Li's voice, no one in the barracks made a sound, they lowered their heads and inspected themselves, and occasionally there would be a few who would raise their hands to report their own injuries.
Other than that, there was no other hoorah, if they did not personally witness it, none of them would have thoughtthat there was actually 600 people in the barracks.
Their swift and decisive reactions, coupled with their spontaneous yet silent movements, revealed their disciplineand power, causing Xu Ye and the rest to feel a tightness in their chests. They did not know what an army was, butthe quiet and disciplined scene in front of them had greatly shocked them.
Compared to the elites that they have seen before, the people in front of them were weaker. But if they were to be lined up in a row, they would be quarreling and squabbling with each other, finding faults amongst each other. And unlike the army in front of them, the elites that were stronger usually needed reason and monetary rewards to be propelled to do something.
But the troops in front of them, did not even make a sound, they were calm and quiet, and every movement wasstraightforward and clear.
Han Bing Ning and Ah Mo Li brought their men and left, they needed to grasp every second that they could. Seeingthe two groups leaving quietly, Xu Ye and the rest could not help but remain silent.
~Maybe this group of people can truly change the Sin Domain. ~
