Chapter 138: All Are Tricks
The three clan leaders felt a strong surge of energy, and their eyes became very firm and sharp. For them, it was like an arrow ready to be shot; there was no turning back. The three great families had no way out. As Yun Yi said, the battle tomorrow was inevitable. Rather than waiting to be defeated, it was better to fight fiercely.
"Young Master Yun, please tell us how to fight tomorrow. We will follow your plan."
Hong Liang said loudly.
Fang Yanshan and Guo Haifeng also looked at Yun Yi seriously. The battle tomorrow was very important. They needed to find a strong leader, and Yun Yi was the best choice.
"I have found out that tomorrow Pan Hong will build an altar behind the City Master’s house to perform a blood ritual with nine hundred and ninety-nine young girls,"
Hu Quan said.
"Tomorrow night, when the bright moon is high, Pan Hong will first go to the altar to absorb the moonlight essence. At that time, I will make him take the Evil Spirit Pill. Then the City Master’s skilled warriors and soldiers will bring nine hundred and ninety-nine young girls directly into the back mountain from the City Master’s house. You three families will take three different paths and closely watch the City Master’s movements. Once the young girls appear, you must immediately attack and surround the City Master’s house to rescue as many girls as possible. I will handle the altar part. Remember, this is a bloody battle, and you must be fully prepared. The warriors from your families will be ready to fight bravely."
Yun Yi said.
"Okay, let’s do it this way."
Hong Liang slapped his thigh.
"Pan Hong has lost all sense of humanity; to perform a blood sacrifice of innocent girls, making so many girls his victims, is truly inhumane, and he deserves to be punished by all."
Fang Yanshan said angrily. Whenever he thought of Pan Hong sacrificing thousands of girls, his rage would boil over.
Hu Quan clenched his fists tightly, his emotions visibly restless; his little granddaughter was among those nine hundred ninety-nine girls.
"But what if, when the battle begins, those insane people from the City Master’s mansion kill the girls? After all, those girls are in their hands; we may not have time to save them,"
Guo Haifeng said with some worry. Although their fight was for the survival of their family, they could not ignore the lives of thousands of innocent girls. Otherwise, how would they be different from the cold-blooded Pan Hong? They would completely lose their humanity.
"Don’t worry; they will care even more about the girls’ safety. These girls are the result of a lot of effort and time spent by the City Master’s mansion to capture them, aimed at helping Pan Hong practice his dark arts for the blood sacrifice. If they die, Pan Hong’s sacrifice will be meaningless. So, before the blood sacrifice begins, the City Master’s mansion worries more about the girls’ lives than you do."
Yun Yi said.
"Young Master Yun is right. If even a few of the thousands of girls are harmed, Pan Hong’s blood sacrifice will become pointless."
Hong Liang nodded.
"Alright, it’s settled. I will return to Danfang now. Before the night of the full moon, I won’t come out early. When the time comes, I will go directly to the back mountain altar with Pan Hong. You only need to take action as agreed today."
Yun Yi said.
"We will also go back to make preparations."
Fang Yanshan and Guo Haitao were also ready to leave. Since the decisive battle would happen tomorrow, they must return today to make arrangements and be fully prepared.
"Tomorrow, Pan Hong will surely not expect that the three major families will take action. He won’t have any defenses against you beforehand and will focus all his energy on Hero Flying Tiger. When the time comes, the true experts from the City Master’s mansion will gather at the back mountain to guard the altar, leaving the defenses inside the City Master’s mansion relaxed. If your three families work together, you can catch the City Master’s mansion off guard."
Hu Quan said, being the head of an escort agency and a wise man who thinks things through carefully.
"Brother Hu, you should stay with the Hong family and act together with them tomorrow."
Yun Yi patted Hu Quan’s shoulder, knowing that this old man had been unable to sleep well these days, waiting for this day to come.
"Alright."
Hu Quan nodded. His eyes sparkled with bright light, fully prepared. Just as Yun Yi said, he had waited a long time for this day.
Yun Yi left the Hong family, becoming a shadow in the darkness, silently heading towards the alchemy workshop.
That night, Hero Flying Tiger did not appear. It seemed he had truly vanished.
Jade Wheel City was quiet and peaceful, a calmness that felt a bit eerie.
And this was just the calm before the storm.
That night, the three great families were all nervously making arrangements and preparations for the most crucial battle to determine their survival.
Inside the alchemy workshop, it was as calm as ever. Yun Yi quietly returned to the storage room, where Black Wind was still controlling the fireball, continuously releasing high heat to create the illusion that Yun Yi was refining pills.
Yun Yi slipped out quietly, without attracting any attention.
The next day at noon, Pan Hong arrived at the alchemy workshop. He and the Chief Steward knocked on the door of the storage room.
Yun Yi opened the door and cupped his hands towards Pan Hong, "City Lord."
"Yun Yi, how is the Evil Spirit Pill coming along?"
Pan Hong asked with a smile, his face filled with eagerness.
"Thanks to the City Lord, the Evil Spirit Pill has been perfectly made."
Yun Yi said, taking out a jade box. The box was transparent, and inside, the Evil Spirit Pill was clearly visible—a gray pill that emitted a cold light, lowering the temperature around it.
"The Evil Spirit Pill, it truly is the Evil Spirit Pill! Haha, Yun Yi, once I succeed, I will surely thank you properly."
Pan Hong stared at the Evil Spirit Pill with excitement, and he and the Chief Steward looked at it for a long time without noticing any tricks.
"City Lord, I still need to cultivate this Evil Spirit Pill. I will take it out on the night of the full moon. Before your blood ritual, combining the essence of moonlight with the Evil Spirit Pill will bring out its best effects. So, there is no need to rush; I will go with you to the blood ritual tonight, bringing this Evil Spirit Pill with me."
Yun Yi said.
"Alright. Tonight I will let you stay by my side. Haha, Yun Yi, from now on in Jade Wheel City, whatever you want, whether it’s money or beautiful women, I will fulfill your wishes."
Pan Hong had no doubts at all about Yun Yi’s words. He saw the Evil Spirit Pill, and his trust in Yun Yi had reached its peak. Moreover, Yun Yi had been here day after day making pills, showing his sincere dedication. In Pan Hong’s eyes, Yun Yi was thinking carefully about him.
"City Lord, these days I have also made some other pills, and they are all in the storage room. Tonight, I will take them out and leave them in the pill shop."
Yun Yi said.
"Haha, as expected of a talented Medicine Pill Master! You can keep the pills you made as a reward from me."
Pan Hong laughed heartily and generously gave all the pills Yun Yi made directly to him. For Pan Hong, besides the Evil Spirit Pill, he had no interest in any other pills at all.
