Chapter 258 Melee

"Let me make it clear in advance that if our Tian family loses more than half of the cultivators this time, your Chang family will have to double the amount they give." Tian Youwei, who understood the seriousness of the matter, quickly emphasized this point. This was what the head of the Chang family had agreed with them.

Chang Shengqing had already forced a smile on his face when he heard this.

He was reminded of this at this time, and his impression of Tian Youwei became even worse.

Why did the Tian family send such a leading cultivator here?

There is one thing that Chang Shengqing must admit. With the cultivators sent by the Tian family to support, plus the cultivators of their Chang family now, if they want to retake this spiritual vein land, the loss of the Tian family cultivators is likely to exceed ten people.

Once it exceeds ten people, their Chang family will pay double, which means that the Ma family's action has caused them a very large loss.

Of course, this is not the worst result.

The worst result is that after the Tian family loses ten people, their Chang family still cannot take back this spiritual vein land.

Because he doesn't know the specific strength of the Ma family and the Li family in the spiritual vein land.

"We know." Chang Shengqing looked at Tian Youwei and could only say this.

"Have you explored the situation in the spiritual vein land?" Tian Youwei nodded and asked.

Chang Shengqing shook his head.

They could not explore the current situation at all. If the Ma family monks found it, it would be more difficult to take back the spiritual vein land.

Now they are here, and the Ma family monks should not know the situation, which is obviously in their favor.

"Didn't explore it clearly? What are you doing?" Tian Youwei's face darkened. In his opinion, if there is no specific information, it would be uneasy to send his own monks in.

Fortunately, the agreement between the two parties stated that if the Tian family lost more than half this time, the Ma family must double what they gave, otherwise it would be a real loss.

"Fellow Daoist Youwei, the Ma family and the Li family occupy the spiritual vein land. If they explore it like this, they will be easily discovered."

Tian Youwei looked unhappy, and he was not in a good mood either. The Tian family did not value this support at all and was making a fuss here.

Who told them that the Chang family was the weaker party? Even so, he still had to keep smiling and give an explanation.

"Humph!" Tian Youwei snorted coldly, then looked at Chang Shengqing and reminded him, "Fellow Daoist Chang, let me say this first. Without finding out what's going on, your Chang family should give up this operation."

"If we give up the operation, we can't let fellow Daoist and the clan members run for nothing." Chang Shengqing still kept a smile on his face.

Tian Youwei put his hands behind his back, walked forward a few steps, looked back at Chang Shengqing and said, "It's not a wasted trip, but you Chang family still have to give what you should give."

Isn't this just getting something for nothing?

Tian Youwei really had the nerve to say such a thing. Chang Shengqing didn't reply immediately, but cursed a few words in his heart.

After adjusting his mentality, he spoke.

"The operation must continue." Originally, Chang Shengqing wanted to inform the clan leader of the situation to see if he could give up this operation to avoid greater losses. After listening to Tian Youwei's words, he didn't have any such thoughts at all.

We must not let the Tian family come in vain.

"We will act at night, which will give you and your clan members time to adjust. It is not easy for you to come all the way here, so you need some time to rest."

"Of course."

Tian Youwei nodded and asked the clan members who came here to rest first. There is usually a tough battle to fight at night.

Chang Shengqing was dissatisfied with his attitude, and he was still unhappy with Chang Shengqing.

Not being able to obtain the other party's information means that there is no information, and you are afraid of alerting the other party. If you are afraid of everything, you might as well cancel this action and go home to sleep.

As for the number and quality of cultivators sent by their Tian family, Tian Youwei felt that they were full of sincerity. If they really had no sincerity, they should send fifteen cultivators, and then only one cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining, and they would not need to be in the ninth level of Qi Refining, so he would not have to come.

Their Tian family was suppressed in Weishui County. They should be happy to wait for such support with the things given by the Chang family. In his opinion, the lives of their Tian family cultivators are very valuable.

Night fell.

After Chang Shengqing informed Tian Youwei that the operation had begun, the monks of the two families gathered together.

After the spiritual vein land was occupied, the other party sent monks to patrol, and the patrols in recent days must have been unusually frequent.

Patrols are generally divided into light and dark. If a single monk sneaks in to avoid the current patrols, and is particularly good at sneaking in, there is still a chance to enter the spiritual vein land, but they don’t have such talents.

It is not easy for them to hide, so it is impossible to enter the spiritual vein land quietly and launch a sneak attack.

For them, the best start of this attack is to get rid of a patrolling monk first and make a good start.

After a large number of monks entered the spiritual vein land.

Chang Shengqing saw the monks patrolling in the distance. He and Tian Youwei looked at each other. When they were about to take action, a loud sound interrupted their rhythm.

Discovered!

It should be that the monks hiding in the dark have discovered them.

After hearing the sound, the monks in the distance looked around vigilantly at first, and then retreated to the rear the next moment.

Since they were discovered, there was nothing to hide.

They didn't get a good start, so they hoped that the final result would be better.

"Follow up quickly!"

Chang Shengqing said to the monks behind him after performing the "Get Up" operation.

The seven late-stage Qi-refining monks were at the front, and the other mid-stage Qi-refining monks followed behind.

Judging from their advancing team, it was obvious that they were monks from two families.

There is some distance between the monks of the Chang family and the Tian family.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, they saw the Ma family and Li family monks waiting for them.

Chang Shengqing and Tian Youwei stopped in unison. This was not their tacit understanding, and the situation of the monks gathered by the Ma family and the Li family was obviously stronger than before them.

The opponent's overall number of monks may not be as good as theirs, but there are ten monks in the late stage of Qi Refining, three more than them.

"Stop." Chang Shengqing said. Faced with such a situation, he did not directly take action.

The monks from the family guarding the spiritual land here have all died. Normally, the Ma family and the Li family must have suffered losses, but the current situation gave Chang Shengqing a feeling that the other monks did not seem to have lost much.

Although he could not specifically judge how many monks the Ma family and the Li family initially gathered to attack this land of spiritual veins, if he made a vague judgment, it would definitely not be particularly large. The Ma family itself only had that many monks, and there were many more. The land of spiritual veins needs to be guarded, and the number of monks sent by the Li family will not be very large.

A team of more than forty monks is highly unlikely.

The monks from the Ma family and the Li family, who had already prepared, were waiting for them here soon.

Li Xunxun looked at the Chang family monks leading this team. The number of people was similar to what they discussed. There should be more than thirty monks.

But the number of monks they came to in the late stage of Qi refining was less than he expected.

In this way, whether the other party will take action is still a question.

Faced with such a situation, the Ma family did not want to start a fight. If the battle continued, it would cause them a lot of losses. Therefore, they did not let the family take action directly. For the Li family, it was definitely possible not to fight. No fighting.

Their purpose in helping the Ma family was just to capture this spiritual land, not to eliminate all the Chang family monks who came here.

"Everyone can go back wherever they came from. The owner of this land of spiritual veins is our Chang family." Chang Shengqing, who had finished the ideological struggle, first tried to communicate.

The clan leader’s mission is to let him take over this spiritual land.

Based on the current situation, it would be best if they could be forced to leave. This is also for their Chang family's future consideration. The Chang family can't suffer any greater losses, let's take this step first.

"No, it belongs to our Ma family now." Ma Huanghuang smiled. The other party did not have the courage to take action directly. He felt that he had already won a lot.

"Fellow Daoist Ma, how about giving our Tian family some face? Leave." Tian Youwei said at this time.

For him, it would be best to complete the deal with the Chang family if no monk from the Tian family died.

He's trying too.

"I don't know you." Ma Huanghuang sneered, almost saying 'Who are you' written on his face.

Obviously the short communication between the two parties failed.

Chang Shengqing had already sacrificed his high-grade magic weapon, and then issued the order, "Do it!"

He rushed to the front, followed closely by the other Chang family monks.

Tian Youwei seemed to react a little slowly. Only after the Chang family monks surpassed them did he let the Tian family monks take action.

The other party finally decided to take action, and Ma Huanghuang also issued the same order. Naturally, he had no reason to avoid fighting.

According to these monks, they want to take over this land of spiritual veins... Ma Huanghuang is confident in his side.

Under the night.

The battle between the two sides started like this, with magic weapons, talismans, and spells intertwined, and spiritual energy fluctuating continuously.

The monks from the Li family and the Ma family echoed each other and cooperated tacitly. A relatively easy battle before gave them practice experience. With tacit cooperation, they can display better strength in two-on-two and three-on-three melees. In the current battle, they were slightly outnumbered. A monk who was seriously injured before did not join the battle. He was hiding now.

Compared with their cooperation, the cooperation between the monks of the Chang family and the Tian family is relatively unfamiliar, but most of them are monks from the Tian family fighting together, and from the Ma family fighting together, so this does not have a particularly big impact on them.

Chang Shengqing frowned. As time went by, he became more and more aware of the danger of this operation. This land of spiritual veins may not be captured. Although the opponent's number of monks is not as good as theirs, there are many monks in the late stage of Qi refining. Now let's fight. After that, the actual situation was that they were still slightly at a disadvantage.

His opponent was young and somewhat unfamiliar. He was probably not a monk from the Ma family, but a monk from the Li family.

This Li family monk only has the ninth level of Qi refining, but the strength he exerts is able to surpass him. He has not taken advantage of him in many confrontations.

Do you have such rich combat experience at this age?

What kind of role is he in the Li family?

Chang Shengqing did not think much during the battle. Normally, the Li family supports the Ma family. It is impossible for such a monk to support the Ma family. Even if you don’t have to guess, you know that he is probably a monk with dual spiritual roots. Otherwise, his cultivation speed will be faster. It can't be so fast.

Tian Youwei is dealing with Ma Huanghuang. He seems to have a firm gaze, but he always has his retreat in mind.

In his opinion, the Chang family cannot get back this spiritual land.

Now is the time to get it back. Their strength is obviously not enough now. If the fight continues, both sides will suffer heavy losses.

The battle lasted for half an hour, but the situation became more and more fierce.

The Chang family monks had a harder time, but they tried their best. Although the number of injured monks continued to increase, no one gave up the battle. The Tian family monks also fought with all their strength, otherwise they would only die, and they could not do it if they wanted to slack off.

The Ma family and the Li family were not playing with them, and they did not accept some hints from the Tian family monks... The battle lasted for a while in this difficult and fierce situation, and then Tian Youwei spoke.

"If you don't retreat, keep fighting!"

The number of Tian family monks who died exceeded five, and many were injured. If this continues, the number of Tian family monks who died will exceed ten.

Tian Youwei was not worried about more than ten, but the number of deaths stuck at nine.

In this case, the nine Tian family monks would have sacrificed in vain. If it reached ten, they could continue to ask the Chang family for things.

Chang Shengqing really had such an idea.

Who told Tian Youwei to disgust him before.

He also understood the current situation. This spiritual vein land was basically impossible to conquer.

If they suffered too many casualties, it would undoubtedly be a greater blow to the Chang family. In the current situation, there should be no problem after he reported it to the clan leader.

If the clan leader was here, he would have asked them to evacuate after fighting for now.

What's more, he was injured. If his nephew hadn't freed up his hands to help him block the attack of the Li family cultivator, he would have been seriously injured.

The spiritual formation here is still in the hands of the opponent. When the time is right, they can retreat to the spiritual formation.

"Retreat!"

Chang Shengqing gave an order, and he and the young cultivator of the Li family immediately pulled a distance.

"What a pity."

Li Xundi couldn't help but say that he almost took down Chang Shengqing before.

If it wasn't a melee, but a single fight, he would definitely be able to take down the leading cultivator of the Chang family.

If the opponent wants to retreat, they will not pursue, this has been discussed long ago.

After the Ma family had more spiritual veins, they did not want to suffer more losses. Pursuing them could kill more of the other party's cultivators, but they would also suffer losses.

The Li family was even more so.

Pursuing the cultivators of the Chang and Tian families was even more meaningless for them.

Li Xundi began to check the situation of the dead and injured cultivators of their Li family. In addition, the cultivators of the late Qi Refining stage on their side had the upper hand in this battle, so they would not suffer any loss when fighting one against two cultivators of the middle Qi Refining stage.
