Chapter 495: Lure the snake out of its hole

Knowing that Zhou Zhiheng is quite powerful, he must have some trump cards in his hand.

Huo Xinglong speculated that he would be able to gain the upper hand against Chen Qingyun or Chen Xianming.

But when fighting against cultivators of the same level, or a rising star like Chen Qingyun, he must have a lot of secrets and trump cards in his hand, otherwise how could he kill Huo Yansheng and Huo Yanxin.

Zhou Zhiheng probably didn't want to make a move.

Thinking of this, Huo Xinglong shook his head again.

"You think too simply of Zhou Zhiheng. This old man is very smooth and calculating. He will never try anything he is not sure of. Instead, he will encourage us to take the lead."

"Especially in recent times, this person has also obtained a jade token of the Immortal Mansion. He must have been secretly accumulating strength and recuperating."

"So I guess he may not compete with the cultivators of the same level at this time."

"It is better to let outsiders not interfere in the grievances between us and Chen Qingyun, so that even if we win, Zhou Zhiheng will ask for more spoils that belong to us."

"Chen Qingyun can reach the peak of the Purple Mansion at a young age. He does not have amazing resources and rich treasures. Who would believe this?"

Huo Xinglong's previous opinions, coupled with the following rhetorical question, completely made Huo Lingming give up the idea of ​​inviting Zhou Zhiheng to take action.

Fat water should not flow to outsiders' fields.

It is really not good to let outsiders interfere in this matter, so as not to cause conflicts again due to uneven distribution of interests and offend outsiders.

"Why don't we do this? To increase our chances of winning, let's take another Xuanhuo Chi Divine Talisman from our clan."

"With this killer in hand, even if we lose to Chen Qingyun in the end, we can only avoid the sharp edge for the time being and make long-term plans."

The Xuanhuo Chi Divine Talisman is a talisman that the ancestors of the Huo family exchanged from Wuyin Island. A total of three were exchanged.

Previously, in the Star Sea Expedition, Huo Lingyu used one, and there are currently two left.

Being able to take out a talisman as a killer to deal with Chen Qingyun made Huo Lingming look certain and have a firm chance of winning.

"The Xuanhuo Chi Divine Talisman can kill any creature below the Jindan stage. To deal with Chen Qingyun, using a family heritage, isn't this a bit too much investment?"

"This treasure must be brought."

Huo Xinglong said solemnly.

"If we don't carry a talisman as a trump card, I'm afraid Chen Qingyun will do something wrong in this battle."

"I guess this boy is definitely not an ordinary Purple Mansion cultivator, and he has some trump cards in his hands."

"We are not Nangong Wuwang, and we don't have the fighting power to cross the level to fight against the Golden Core Demon King. Naturally, it is more appropriate to play it safe."

"Remember, as long as you take action, you must go all out, don't underestimate the enemy, and don't give Chen Qingyun any chance to fight back."

"Indeed, Yansheng and Yanxin will be killed by Chen Qingyun, which means that this boy does have some tricks. We must not take it lightly. The clan leader should consider it carefully."

The two discussed for a while, and Huo Xinglong immediately sent a message to the clan to summon the fourth elder Huo Lingyu to join forces.

Huo Lingyu's cultivation has reached the peak of Purple Mansion. He is a veteran Purple Mansion cultivator in the Huo family and has reached the Purple Mansion stage for more than 160 years.

In terms of experience and combat experience, he has surpassed both Huo Xinglong and Huo Lingming.

After receiving the message from the clan leader, Huo Lingyu set out the next day and spent six days to reach the Xingsha Islands to join up.

He landed on a small deserted island more than 30 miles away from Lingjian Island and met Huo Xinglong and Huo Lingming.

The rain has gathered in the past few days, and the heavy rain has not stopped until today, making the sky look even gloomier.

The three of them sat in a temporary cave on the island, ignoring the heavy rain outside, and began to talk.

"I have brought the Xuanhuo Chishen Talisman you asked for. There is only one of this kind of talisman left in the clan. With such a move, is this murderer very difficult to deal with? Even if you two join forces, don't you have much chance of winning?"

"Chen Qingyun of the Chen family, what is this person's background? He is not just a cultivator of the Chen family of Lingjian Island, he must have a backer behind him."

Huo Lingyu acted cautiously. Even though the clan leader's order was not easy to disobey, he didn't want to take action at this moment when they gathered here.

He was worried that Chen Qingyun had amazing means in his hands and it would not be so easy to capture him alive.

Even if they tried their best to kill him, they might not have much chance of winning.

In the communication, Huo Xinglong did not explain the situation in detail. Seeing that Huo Lingyu was cautious and afraid of Chen Qingyun, he told him his guess in detail.

At the same time, a phoenix spread its wings and circled in the heavy rain above the sea area thousands of meters away from Huo Xinglong and the other two. Not long after, it quickly fell into the sea and disappeared.

In the surrounding area, there were three more phoenixes carrying out reconnaissance operations at the same time. With the cover of rain and heavy rain, they observed the actions of Huo Xinglong and the other two clearly.

"The Huo family is really patient and even called for help. Although the distance is too far and it is impossible to detect the strength of this person, he can be called over alone to join forces. He must be at least in the late Purple Mansion."

Chen Qingyun was on Lingjian Island, controlling the phoenix to keep a close eye on Huo Xinglong and the other two.

Six days ago, when Huo Xinglong and the other two had just left Lingjian Island, Chen Qingyun secretly kept a hand and mobilized the puppets in the sea to monitor them.

After paying attention, he found that the Huo family had no intention of leaving easily.

Instead, they stayed near Lingjian Island, and the intention of doing so was very obvious.

As expected, after a few days of observation, when he saw Huo Lingyu appear here, Chen Qingyun was sure that the Huo family would make a big move.

Whether it was a surprise attack on Lingjian Island or targeting him alone, Chen Qingyun didn't know for the time being.

No matter which one it was, the battle with the Huo family was inevitable.

In order to prevent the family from knowing that there were three purple mansion monks spying outside the clan land, which made the family panic, Chen Qingyun only told Chen Xianming about this matter.

In the past few days, Chen Xianming checked the island protection formation several times, and arranged the demon-killing cannon, Qilin and Taotie in place, ready to respond to the Huo family's surprise attack at any time.

Although Chen Daolin and others were not aware of it.

But they could vaguely guess that the family was so prepared this time, it must be related to the previous visit of Huo Xinglong and the others, so they all entered a state of combat readiness.

After sending a message to the old patriarch, Chen Qingyun decided to meet Huo Xinglong and the other two in person to try to prevent them from attacking Lingjian Island.

Even though the old patriarch was very confident in Chen Qingyun's strength, he secretly left Lingjian Island and followed Chen Qingyun not far behind, ready to help at any time.

If a fight really breaks out, Chen Qingyun already has a plan in mind on how to start.

More than fifty miles away from Lingjian Island, there is an uninhabited island with an area of ​​more than 8,000 square meters, which is undoubtedly a good location.

Chen Qingyun set this uninhabited island as the battle site. In order to avoid being tracked and located by Huo Xinglong and the other two, he did not leave the range of Lingjian Island.

He dispatched Bahuang, with four puppets, Xuanwu, Huoshen, Gongjian, and Tiandao, each holding a formation flag, and landed on the uninhabited island silently, lurking underground.

To do this, the Xuanyin Black Water Array was set up in advance, and the formation light curtain was temporarily removed, which could be activated at any time.

Then, he released all the other puppets except Bahuang and Jiuyou, and even the Jinwu Xuanniao and the Flamingo, and arranged them to lurk around Lingjian Island.

Since he was going to take action, he would not give the other party any chance to escape, and set up layers of means.

After ambushing these powerful back-ups, Chen Qingyun summoned the Flying Feather Boat and deliberately flew out of Lingjian Island and headed for that island.

"Chen Qingyun is out, take action!"

The moment Chen Qingyun left Lingjian Island, Huo Xinglong, who was far away on the island, noticed that the stargazing disk had reacted, and immediately called Huo Lingming and Huo Lingyu to take action.
