A rare opportunity

Chapter 272 Xianlin Mountains

The whole process of capturing Tong Lingfeng was safe and sound! Those who were causing trouble were arranged by Dou Jinsuo in advance, and their purpose was to disperse Tong Lingfeng's followers. Originally, they only wanted to attract half of the followers, and they had already made all preparations to lead them into the Xing Mansion.

But Tong Lingfeng, who was always cautious, fell in front of his sister's house! Only two people were left! This saved Li Yu and others a lot of trouble.

As for the carriage, it was naturally prepared in advance. The signal of his appearance was that all the city guards in front of the Xing Mansion would enter the Xing Mansion!

The reason why they prepared a carriage was naturally because they wanted to take Tong Lingfeng out of the city immediately!

The sudden disappearance of a leader is no small matter, and it will definitely cause a big storm in Tianxing City! A city-wide search is inevitable! If Tong Lingfeng is left in the city, he can't be hidden at all!

Dou Jinsuo drove the carriage all the way and headed straight for Suzaku Gate! Seeing that people were coming in and out of the city gate in an endless stream and in an orderly manner in front of Suzaku Gate! Li Yu and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!

As soon as the carriage left the city gate, the sound of horse hooves could be heard behind us! Someone shouted:

"The city lord has issued an order! Close the city gates immediately! No one is allowed to leave the city!"

Then there was a loud noise and the creaking sound of the city gate closing!

Li Yu and the others couldn't help but feel a chill on their backs! Fortunately, they acted quickly, otherwise they would have been locked up in the city!

The city lord ordered the city gates to be closed because he learned about Tong Lingfeng's disappearance. Li Yu did not expect the city lord's mansion to react so quickly!

Li Yu was afraid that there would be pursuers coming, so he did not dare to delay and immediately ordered Dou Jinsuo to drive away quickly!

At this time, Tianxing City was in an uproar! All the city guards had been dispatched to block the streets and alleys!

The city lord was furious when he received the urgent report from Xing Xuewen and Xue Feibao! To capture one of his leaders in Tianxing City was a provocation to the entire city lord's mansion and the entire Tianxing City! He didn't know who the other party was? Why did they have such a big courage? But he secretly swore that no matter who the other party was, no matter where the other party hid, he would find them even if he had to dig up the entire Tianxing City three feet deep! Cut them into pieces!

He was so furious not because of how important Tong Lingfeng was to him, but because of his reputation! The commander of the Tianxing City Guards was kidnapped in Tianxing City. As the city lord, he would naturally become a laughing stock!

As a result, the entire Tianxing City was in chaos!

However, Li Yu and others left Tianxing City and, with the dozen guards who had been waiting outside the Suzaku Gate, headed straight for a mountain range outside the Suzaku Gate!

That mountain range is called Xianlin Mountain Range, which is the destination chosen by Li Yu and others in advance. Of course, they cannot return to Plum Blossom Valley with Tong Lingfeng. If Tong Lingfeng is related to the poisoning case, it's fine. If not, then Plum Blossom Valley will have an enemy with Tong Lingfeng, which means it will have an enemy with the City Lord's Mansion! Although Plum Blossom Fairy herself is not afraid, after all, there are many disciples under her. They can't all hide in Plum Blossom Valley and not come out, right?

After thinking it over, it was better to take him to a place where few people go. After choosing and choosing, the Xianlin Mountains were the most suitable. First, it was not far from Tianxing City. Second, this mountain range was composed of straight up and down peaks, just like a forest. There were many beasts and few people. This is why the mountain range got its name! Third, the Xianlin Mountains were so large that even if the City Lord's Mansion found it, there would not be enough people to conduct a thorough search.

Although the Xianlin Mountains were relatively close to Tianxing City, that was only relative. In fact, the mountains were more than 200 kilometers away from Tianxing. Even if they drove a four-horse carriage, it took them nearly six hours to reach the foot of the mountain.

The mountain is as its name suggests. From a distance, the towering peaks look like tall trees standing upright. From a distance it looks like a forest!

Arriving at the foot of the mountain, looking up at the peaks, Li Yu couldn't help but take a breath! The peaks were straight up and down, with almost no slopes! Between the peaks, there were dense forests and jagged rocks, with almost no place to stand!

The carriage cannot move forward, so if you want to go deeper into the mountains you can only walk!

In order to prevent the city guards from following the clues of the carriage to find this place, Li Yu ordered Liu Hai to drive with two guards along the edge of the Xianlin Mountains towards Qiyun City, where the Qiyun Sect was located! The rest of the people walked into the Xianlin Mountains!

There were gravels and trees everywhere. The gravels were hard and sharp, and the forests were dense and overgrown with weeds. It was difficult to walk! It was especially difficult for Li Yu! Fortunately, he had made some progress in practicing the footwork taught by the Plum Blossom Fairy, so he didn't seem too tired to follow the Plum Blossom Fairy who was carrying Tong Lingfeng.

Dou Jinsuo led the guards to clear the way in front, followed closely by Plum Blossom Fairy carrying Tong Lingfeng, and Li Yu, Park Sung-heon, Wu Ling'er, and Qi Biao brought up the rear, turning back from time to time to check what was happening behind them.

Li Yu even directed his spiritual thoughts outward, always paying attention to the surrounding environment and whether there would be pursuers behind him.

Their goal was to find a place that could shelter them from the wind and rain so that they could interrogate Tong Lingfeng. He knew that Tong Lingfeng was not an easy person to deal with! Interrogating him would be extremely difficult, and it would take more than a day or two to pry open his mouth! Therefore, they had to find a safe place to avoid being besieged by those beasts!

Of course, the best place to go is to find a cave. But those mountains are as sharp as if they were cut by knives and axes, and there is no cave at all!

However, the Plum Blossom Fairy seemed confident and corrected the direction of Dou Jinsuo and others from time to time.

Li Yu and his companions stumbled through the mountains under the guidance of the Plum Blossom Fairy, and naturally encountered some poisonous snakes and fierce beasts on the way. However, these guys seemed too weak in front of Dou Jinsuo and his companions, and there was no need for the Plum Blossom Fairy and Wu Linger to take action.

After crossing countless mountains, they suddenly saw a vast expanse of green grass in front of them, with wild flowers everywhere.

There was a rumbling sound, and Li Yu looked up and found that at the end of the grassland, a waterfall fell straight down from a mountain peak! A huge pool of water was formed! The waterfall fell straight down and hit the pool, splashing white mist, which looked particularly spectacular!

Birds are flying above the pond, fish are swimming in the pond, and all kinds of ferocious beasts can be seen everywhere on the edge of the pond!

When the Plum Blossom Fairy saw it, she seemed particularly excited, and immediately picked up Tong Lingfeng and rushed towards the pond!
