Chapter 1054 -666: Led Astray _2

At the same time, Mo Hua also used simple stick figures to mark the location of each black-clothed person.

”There are two at the entrance, they are keeping watch. Past the corridor, behind the stone column, there’s another tall one

Everyone had complex expressions on their faces.

Your Divine Sense is so powerful, is it really just “a little

Mo Hua continued, “In the innermost part, there is a hall, outside the hall there are three cultivators at the initial stage of Foundation Establishment patrolling, their auras are somewhat stronger.”

”In the hall, a mid-phase Foundation Establishment cultivator is in charge.”

”In the corner of the hall, there are boxes and bags, which likely contain the kidnapped cultivators

Mo Hua explained the structure of the Refinery Shop and the arrangement of the black-clothed cultivators with crystal clarity.

Cheng Mo picked up his axe, his eyes brimming with a fighting spirit.

He hated these black-clothed cultivators for trafficking people, and for pursuing him. He immediately said,

”I’ll charge in and take them down!”

Mo Hua gave him a speechless look.

Cheng Mo was taken aback, “Aren’t we going to fight it out

Mo Hua snorted disdainfully, “Fight your big head ghost!”

Mo Hua raised his index finger, lecturing him earnestly, “For everything, preparedness ensures success, unpreparedness spells failure; we must be strategic in our actions.”

”Even if we are to battle, we need to use our brains, to have a method, not just mindlessly ‘charge’ forward

Cheng Mo scratched his head, “How do we strategize?”

Mo Hua used the pen to draw a route on the paper:

”Be as covert as possible, leave no traces, and don’t alarm anyone

”Start with the two black-clothed cultivators at the main entrance, kill them one by one.”

”Beyond the main door is the corridor, then the eaves… Deal with each one in sequence, and finally, find a way to take down the mid-phase Foundation Establishment black-clothed leader.”

”This is the most secure method, it minimizes risk, and conserves Spiritual Power

The others watched Mo Hua silently, their admiration growing.

”Shall we get started now?” Cheng Mo whispered.

Mo Hua shook his head, “I haven’t finished yet

Cheng Mo was startled, “You’re not done?”

Mo Hua took out the Thousand Jun Stick and asked Hao Xuan, “Do you know how to use a blackjack?”

Hao Xuan shook his head honestly, “No

”I’ll teach you!” Mo Hua said patiently, “You have good movement skills, light on your feet, suited for blackjack attacks

”This stick has the Thousand Jun Formation inscribed on it.”

”You need to approach quietly, activate the formation, and then take them by surprise

…

After teaching him, Mo Hua asked Hao Xuan, “Did you get all that?”

Hao Xuan nodded blankly, “I got it

Mo Hua patted his shoulder, “Don’t worry, the first time is always hard, you’ll get used to it

Hao Xuan was somewhat dazed.

Mo Hua then addressed Situ Jian, “Situ, apply some poison to your sword

Situ Jian looked confused, “I don’t have any

”That’s alright, I brought some.”

Mo Hua took out several small bottles from his Storage Bag, somewhat regretfully,

”Poisons are hard to come by, especially the potent ones. The Taoist Court regulates them, and the Sects don’t allow refining. We’ll have to make do with simpler ‘paralyzing’ poisons

Mo Hua then said to Yang Qianjun,

”Brother Yang, you should also coat your spear with some poison

c.

Yang Qianjun nodded with mixed feelings.

”Yi Li, do you know how to use the Drowning Throat-Sealing Skill? When you kill, use Water Spiritual Power to seal the throat to prevent the victim from screaming out loud

”And Cheng Mo, take this root and bite on it, that way you won’t yell when you’re chopping down on someone

”Just aim for the forehead, one axe blow to kill, and that’s it

…

Finally, Cheng Mo couldn’t hold back any longer, his eyelid twitching, he muttered lowly,

”Mo Hua… have you… ever been a bandit before? Regularly ‘robbing and killing’?”

Mo Hua glared at him, seriously saying,

”Don’t talk nonsense! I am a good disciple of Taixu Gate, a law-abiding good cultivator!”

Situ Jian and the others were clearly skeptical.

Mo Hua, not wanting them to dwell on this, then said,

”Let’s move!”

Cheng Mo and the others nodded.

Dealing with these black-clothed people and rescuing the kidnapped cultivators was the top priority.

If the means were “dirty”, then so be it.

They had no choice, it was all because Junior Brother had led them astray…

…

In front of the abandoned Refinery Shop.

The two gatekeeper black-clothed individuals were still hiding in the shadows.

If one wasn’t careful, approaching rashly would likely lead to being discovered and would alert these human traffickers.

The six of Mo Hua’s group approached stealthily.

Taking advantage of the moment when the two black-clothed individuals had their backs turned, Hao Xuan made his move first.

Wearing the Water Concealing Jade and using the Wind-System Movement Skill, he silently approached one of them from behind.

Then, hoisting the Thousand Jun Stick, he struck, with a “clang”, on the back of one of the black-clothed individual’s heads.

The black-clothed person staggered suddenly from the blow, seeing stars, his footing unsteady.

Before he could react, Situ Jian propelled the poisoned Li Fire Sword and pierced through his heart meridian.

The poison paralyzed his meridians, preventing him from moving for a short time.

The other black-clothed individual, sensing the commotion, just turned around when Mo Hua locked him down with the Water Prison Technique.

Yang Qianjun’s long-prepared thrust shot through the air, piercing through his chest.

The black-clothed individual opened his mouth trying to scream, but Yi Li quickly followed Mo Hua’s earlier instructions, using the “Drowning Throat-Sealing Skill” with Water Spiritual Power to seal the black-clothed person’s throat, silencing his cries.

Although the technique was obscure, Yi Li came from the Yi family, a family with a background in Spell arts, and even though he wasn’t adept at it, he could still make use of it.

Then everyone else followed up with their own finishing moves, either with blades or spells.
