There was a valley two miles west of Du Jia Village. It was the only way from Tang Province to Cai Prefecture. The heavy rain had caught Elder Xi and the other archers off guard.

It rained for more than two hours before it stopped. Then suddenly, the clouds disappeared and the sky turned white, and the sky began to clear again.

Elder Xi did not change his mind. He had already sent three scouts to the front to investigate. Strangely enough, these people had all left and never returned. Elder Xi felt that this was strange, but he did not give up. He was still guarding the valley. He didn't believe that Xiao Feng and Qu Hongyan wouldn't pass by here!

The Heavens did not disappoint those who wanted to. When the fourth scout was sent out, they returned in the time it took for an incense stick to burn. This time, they had brought back some news — Xiao Feng and Qu Hongyan were less than five kilometers away from the valley. However, at the same time, the spy also said that other than Qu Hongyan, there was also a group of people from the Taihang Pavilion, roughly ten people or so, accompanying them.

Hearing that, Elder Xi was first happy, but then he frowned: "Someone from the Great Saint Pavilion? Where did they come from? How come we didn't notice them? "

Naturally, Elder Xi didn't know. While they were lying in ambush, Zhao Linyun had already left for the Tang Province with her men. Zhao Linyun was one step ahead of Elder Xi, so naturally, she did not discover Zhao Linyun and the others.

"Pass down the order, have all the archers and stonemen stand by and wait for my order!" Elder Xi said to the leader beside him.

"Yes, Imperial Advisor!" The leader agreed and went to make the arrangements.

The sky was clear after the rain. However, there was a lot of water in potholes on the public road, and some muddy places were not easy to walk in. Fortunately, Xiao Feng and the rest rode horses, saving them a lot of trouble.

Zhao Linyun led her subordinates to the front while Xiao Feng, Duan Feiyun and Qu Hongyan followed behind.

"Feng Feng, how long until you say Cai Zhou?" Duan Fei Yun was really bored and asked Xiao Feng, who was beside her.

Xiao Feng was speechless.

He had already told Duan Ling Tian many times not to call him "Feng Feng, Little Feng" from now on. Xiao Feng felt awkward listening to him. Especially since there were so many people present; it was truly a disgrace to his face as a "chivalrous hero".

Thus, Xiao Feng gave an awkward cough and said, "About that, this muddy road is really not easy to walk on!"

"What?" Duan Fei Yun didn't even have time to react as she looked at Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng smiled and said, "I mean, after we pass the valley in front of us, we should arrive in about an hour."

Duan Fei Yun's nose twitched as she said, "You're spouting nonsense!" Once we reach your territory, if you don't properly entertain me for a while, I'll definitely fight you to the death! "

Xiao Feng laughed involuntarily upon hearing that. "Good, good, good. You princess who has travelled far, how could I dare to slight you! "

Hearing Xiao Feng's words, Duan Fei Yun couldn't help but smile, and said in satisfaction: "That's more like it!"

In the distance, he could already see the valley leading to the only way in the city. Zhao Linyun and Qu Hongyan were one in front and one behind. Xiao Feng and Duan Feiyun walked side by side in the middle. The two of them silently rushed on their way, and only Xiao Feng and Duan Fei Yun kept on chattering non-stop. Occasionally, they would laugh out loud, causing Zhao Linyun to occasionally turn around to glance at them in surprise before continuing on her journey without knowing how to react.

In the valley, Elder Xi could already see Xiao Feng and the rest slowly walking into it. His brow finally opened. In the end, the heavy rain was not for nothing. His own thoughts had not gone to waste after all.

The road through the valley had become a more potholed place after the heavy rain. When Xiao Feng and the rest were halfway there, they suddenly heard a loud laughter from above, "Junior Qu, how have you been?"

Elder Xi's voice was loud and clear like a bell, especially in this valley, his voice was even louder and clearer. Xiao Feng and the others couldn't help but be shocked. When they raised their heads to look, they saw Elder Xi standing on top of the valley, looking down at them with his long beard fluttering in the wind.

Qu Hongyan immediately understood the situation. Zhao Linyun had already told her about the matters in Cai Prefecture City. Although Qu Hongyan was surprised that the two elders were severely injured by Ye Xingchen, she did not dare to doubt their abilities.

The truth was that his two senior brothers could already be described as' treason '. But as a Great Consort, in a sense, Qu Hongyan herself didn't have any reason to criticize him. Therefore, she did not mock the two elders from this point. However, Qu Hongyan knew that as the teacher of Mongolia, the two elders were currently opposites of the Great Song Dynasty's Wulin.

Then now, Elder Xi had suddenly appeared and was waiting for them. It wasn't hard for Qu Hongyan to predict that the other party would have already made arrangements.

Qu Hongyan reined in her horse, and raised her head to look, then asked knowingly: "Senior Xi, what great interest you have, you actually came here to view the scenery!"

"Be your consort in Dali. "What did you do in Central Plains?" Elder Xi said with an expressionless face.

When Qu Hong Yan heard this, she couldn't help but laugh, and said: "Senior Xi has always been so honest, why is he still hiding his words like this? Since you can appear here, you should also know my purpose in coming to the Central Plains. Just say it directly. Why do you have to be so fussy about it? "

Hearing that, Elder Xi's face became gloomy, and said: "Junior Qu is still so impatient and impatient. Fine, I won't say much to you. Now that I have settled the matter of Mongolia, I shall do my duty. I've come here today to capture Xiao Lang and bring him back. If you don't want to go back to Dali and stay there, then don't blame me for capturing you too. This is all I can say. Are you going to surrender or fight back? "

After saying that, Elder Xi picked up a small red flag and waved it in the air. In an instant, twenty to thirty people appeared from both sides of the ravine. They were armed with bows and arrows, and half of them were rolling stones. They were right at the edge of the ravine. As long as Elder Xi gave the order, Xiao Feng and the others would be shot until they turned into a hornet's nest.

When Xiao Feng and the others saw this, their expressions changed.

Xiao Feng didn't expect that Elder Xi was guarding this place purely to capture him and bring him back. And they even made such a big move! How was this an ordinary ambush? This was simply marching and fighting, there was only a difference in numbers!

Xiao Feng couldn't help but laugh. They were thinking too highly of him.

Qu Hongyan lightly shouted, "Senior brother is such a generous person! It's fine if you are scheming and scheming, but now that you have even arranged the archers, is senior representing Mongolia declaring war on the Great Song Dynasty? "

"You and I are both smart people, so there's no need to say those unsuspenseful words. Senior Brother, let me still advise you, Dali can't even protect himself right now, why did you come here if you weren't staying at Dali's place. If you agree to return now, I will let you go. If you don't, and if you get injured by that time, don't blame me for not thinking about our previous relationship as fellow disciples! " Elder Xi said faintly.

Finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Xiao Feng and said loudly: "Junior Disciple Xiao, you are a smart person. For your grandfather's sake, I didn't want to make things difficult for you. But now, he had no choice but to do so. If you know what's good for you, then obediently throw away your weapon and tie up your hands to come back with me. I can also spare your subordinates. If you want to resist, I don't mind. However, as an elder, I have to kindly remind you. You believe that you are skilled in martial arts and can dodge the bow and arrow of an archer. But your subordinates might not... I believe that I don't have to say anything else, right? "

"Pavilion Master, don't believe his words. Even if this subordinate dies, the head of the Guardian Pavilion will leave this place! " Zhao Linyun said to Xiao Feng.

"This subordinate is willing to die to protect the Pavilion Master as he breaks out of the encirclement!" All of the subordinates of the Supreme Ocean Pavilion looked at Xiao Feng and said in unison.
