Chapter 992 992: Using Anti-Aircraft Guns to Hunt Mosquitoes?
"What's going on?"
Jiang Feng frowned. What's so urgent this early in the morning?
The Demoness hesitated, glanced at Nangong Qingcheng, unsure if she should be privy to this information.
Nangong Qingcheng, being exceptionally smart, immediately understood the Demoness's hesitation. Though feeling a bit down, she sensibly said, "Alright, you two talk. I'll head back."
As she said this, she prepared to leave alone.
Jiang Feng grabbed her hand: "Nothing needs to be kept secret. You don't have to go."
Nangong Qingcheng gently shook off Jiang Feng's hand, saying with a lonely expression, "It's okay, you talk. Fei'er and the others are looking for me. I'm heading home. Handle your business."
After saying that, Nangong Qingcheng indeed left alone, dejectedly getting into the car the Demoness had called, and left with resignation.
Jiang Feng sighed. After finally soothing Nangong Qingcheng's mood last night, now she probably would overthink things again.
"Xiao Feng, who is she—" The Demoness watched Nangong Qingcheng leave, curiously asking.
Jiang Feng shook his head: "What's going on, tell me!"
The Demoness, noticing Jiang Feng's cold demeanor, realized she might have made a mistake, felt slightly awkward, but still said, "From the reliable information I've received, last night, the Hundred Knowledge Hall held a late-night meeting. They've decided to send a team to Binhai today to settle scores with you. And I estimate they're already on their way now!"
It must be said, the Demoness, being the Fox Master of the Demon Moon Alliance, is very decisive in her actions.
While retreating from Lake Heart Island last night, she left a card up her sleeve, sending someone to infiltrate around the Hundred Knowledge Hall headquarters to observe their movements.
Knowing the loss the Hundred Knowledge Hall suffered yesterday, she was certain they wouldn't let it go and would surely retaliate.
Only by knowing oneself and one's enemy could one emerge victorious in every battle.
Unexpectedly, the spies she dispatched actually detected the movements within Qixia Mountain last night, reported back secretly, and after understanding the whole situation, she hurried to inform Jiang Feng.
"Coming to Binhai?"
Jiang Feng frowned even tighter. He didn't expect that the Hundred Knowledge Hall would dare to retaliate and so swiftly!
"Isn't Gu Yuansheng already dead? Along with those elders and eight hundred useless men, how can they still come for revenge?"
"Xiao Feng, you are unaware. It's true Gu Yuansheng is dead, but one third of the forces within the Hundred Knowledge Hall remain."
The Demoness explained, "That third is led by the Great Elder He Shengfeng, and He Shengfeng has been appointed interim Hall Master by the Main Pavilion of the Tianji Pavilion."
"Moreover, the Tianji Pavilion has specifically dispatched an expert to assist them. They've selected a group of elite members from the remaining forces, and it's estimated they will arrive in Binhai before long!"
Jiang Feng chuckled lightly, "Looks like they truly don't intend to let me rest and always want to create trouble for me. But—it's good timing, saves me the trip to find them. Can you confirm their arrival time and location?"
"This... should be possible!"
The Demoness thought for a while and said, "I deployed the most skilled trackers within the Evil Moon. As soon as the people of the Hundred Knowledge Hall leave Qixia Mountain, they can tail them all the way. I'll contact them to pinpoint their location. So, what do you plan to do, Xiao Feng?"
Jiang Feng laughed coldly: "Since the Hundred Knowledge Hall is considered a sect in the world of martial arts, they surely don't want to make a scene in the bustling city. I suspect they might land somewhere in the suburbs."
"Get your people to keep a close watch and stay in constant communication with you! I want to know their exact location. I'll go ahead to wait for them, preferably taking care of them outside the city to avoid unnecessary trouble."
"Go ahead... and wait?"
The Demoness was stunned at his words!
Such is truly the style of Jiang Feng, even knowing the enemy is coming, doesn't matter who's coming or how many, directly choosing to confront them and even arriving on the battlefield ahead of time!
Such courage, unmatched by anyone!
However, reminiscing about the earth-shattering skills Jiang Feng exhibited at the Demon Moon Headquarters yesterday, it's not surprising that he has such confidence.
She nodded in agreement, "Alright, then I'll contact those spies to pinpoint the enemy's landing site and then go with you to tackle them outside the city!"
...
What Ming Long, Nie Dewu, and He Shengfeng never expected was that, as they confidently brought forces to Binhai with the intent to eliminate Jiang Feng and the fleeing remnants of the Demon Moon Alliance, Jiang Feng and the Demoness not only didn't avoid confrontation but eagerly awaited them, eager for an encounter.
At this moment, these three, along with three other elders from the Hundred Knowledge Hall and fifty hand-picked elite members, were aboard an invisible aircraft heading towards Binhai City.
Generally speaking, many domestic martial arts organizations would be fortunate to have their own aircraft, like the Demon Moon Alliance, which possesses its own helicopter. Yet having an invisible aircraft undetectable by city radar is rare.
This also, in another sense, showcases the strength and foundation of the Hundred Knowledge Hall!
Ming Long stood at the forefront of the invisible aircraft, looking down below, seemingly anticipating the impending slaughter.
The Supreme Elder Nie Dewu and interim Hall Master He Shengfeng stood beside him, also gazing downwards.
Behind them were the Fourth, Sixth, and Seven Elders.
Further back were the fifty parched and eager elite members!
Frankly, since the establishment of the Hundred Knowledge Hall over a hundred years ago, they had never mobilized the core forces like this for a small third-tier city, as if using a cannon to target a mosquito, overkill indeed.
Moreover, with the invincible expertise of Master Ming Long joining them, it indeed afforded that Jiang Feng great face!
"Master Ming Long, twenty more minutes and we'll be there. We should land outside Binhai City and proceed on foot to avoid causing a commotion that might alert the local authorities."
He Shengfeng said to Ming Long.
The martial arts world has an agreement with the mundane world to ensure that martial conflicts do not disrupt the daily lives of ordinary citizens, otherwise, enforcement agencies will intervene, and certain special government entities will not tolerate such occurrences.
"Whatever, as long as that Jiang dies today!" Ming Long scoffed disdainfully, with a blank expression.
He Shengfeng nodded and then addressed the fifty elite members behind him, "Listen up! Once we enter Binhai, without causing local panic, execute quickly. Not only the remnants of the Demon Moon Alliance, but anyone related to Jiang Feng, kill them without mercy!! Understood?!"
"Understood!!!"
The fifty members shouted thunderously, the entire cabin slightly trembling, fully demonstrating their determination and Killing Aura!
