Bang!

As Da-Hu was about to tell everyone that he would ask the seventh prince to help them fight the invaders, the door flung open. A spy rushed in panicking with a piece of paper in his hand…

"Respecting leader! We just had a black-outfit man come in and attack us, sir. He left this letter before leaving the scene!" The spy said with a pale face…

"An attacker!?"

When everyone heard the news, they started to talk to each other again, while preparing to do something about the attack. But when they knew that the attacker had left, they put their weapons down and turned to look at the spy and the letter in his hand…

Whoosh!

Grab!

Da-Hu seized the letter with his energy wave from the spy's hand. He grabbed it and started to read…

[[To Savage Bandits! Today will be your last day! We, the Kog-Lu clan, and the Flowers City Allies will take back what you took from us that day! I believe you've seen what happened to the third toll booth. Watch out! No matter where you go or anytime you blink, you'll never have the chance to open your eyes again!]] By the Kog-Lu clan.

Da-Hu put down the letter as soon as he finished reading it. Yi-Feng then picked it up and read. After he read the letter, he crinkled his eyebrows instantly because he remembered well what they did at the Kog-Lu clan's estates…

"Leader!?" Yi-Feng said while staring at Da-Hu because he wanted to know what Da-Hu had to say about the message…

Er-Feng and San-Feng also picked up and read the letter. They, too, remembered vividly what had happened at the Kog-Lu clan that day. San-Feng, himself, raped the beloved daughter of the clan. He also killed the Kog-Lus' children and elderly…

"I thought they were all dead!" San-Feng, who just finished reading the letter, remarked while feeling puzzled…

"I thought they were! I remember that we killed and burned them all. We even checked and made sure no one survived." Er-Feng, who stood beside San-Feng, said with confusion…

"We can't believe the message in the letter yet. I don't think the Kog-Lu would have this many people. They wouldn't be able to hide from us too. And they mentioned the Flowers City Allies too?"

The three commanders tried to make sense of the situation that was hard to put their foot on. They all turned to look at Da-Hu who was sitting quietly in his seat…

Everyone fixed their gaze on Da-Hu, hoping to hear what he was going to say about what they needed to do next. They thought that if the Kog-Lu's troops could hurt the fourth commander badly, it would be scarier for them if the troops of the Flowers City Allies were waiting on the other side…

Da-Hu thought that if he made the wrong move, his men would be crushed by one of the troops. This worried him so much that he saw the one only way out. And that was to ask for help from the seventh prince, which was the last thing he wanted to do…

"We'll discuss this again later. Now I want everyone to settle well in the castle. And make sure to have more than enough people guarding the place." Da-Hu decided to withhold contacting the seventh prince because he did not entirely believe the message in the letter. He partially suspected that it might be a trick…

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone cupped their fists to pay respect and walked away. They did not agree with Da-Hu's decision, but did not know what else to say…

All the bosses had left the grand hall, leaving behind the three commanders and Da-Hu. They stayed to further discuss the issues…

"I don't think we're in the position that we can protect ourselves. Should we go to the seventh prince for help, leader?" Er-Feng was the one who broke the silence about the issues…

"The seventh prince? Are you crazy, second brother? Don't you remember the last time we asked him for help? We had to sacrifice a lot at that time. I don't like him at all. If we did not owe him that time, I'd never do anything for him.

That might have been him and his plan even."

San-Feng, who was listening to the conversation, got all of a sudden furious when he heard about the seventh prince. He knew well that the seventh prince was the reason why the Mountain Tiger Bandits had to become so demeaning today. They had to serve him for five years after he helped them the last time…

Da-Hu and Yi-Feng turned to look at each other instantly after they heard San-Feng's opinion. It was like they wanted to say the same thing out, but did not…

"Third brother! I understand you well, but we have no other choice. We have to ask him for help." Er-Feng understood San-Feng well. He did not want to ask the seventh prince to help if he had some other way…

When Er-Feng finished the sentence, he turned to look at Yi-Feng and Da-Hu to ask for their opinions. Yi-Feng did not know what to say, so he turned to look at Da-Hu to urge Da-Hu to say what he thought…

"I understand how you feel, Er-Feng. I just don't want to ask the seventh prince to help us now because I think it's not appropriate yet. Besides, the third tollbooth might be attacked by some other group." Da-Hu said while crinkling his eyebrows…

"Some other group!?"

"Which group is it?" The three commanders exclaimed out of confusion at the same time…

"I can't be sure enough to tell you that. Just give me some time." Da-Hu said firmly…

"Okay…"

Back at the main office at the first tollbooth…

Rustle!

Lang-Guang-Kuang came to the first tollbooth after two days. He rushed into the hall and found Tong-Kuang waiting for him. He then cupped his fists and said…

"I've given them the letter, big brother."

"Great! Thank you very much. What I want you to do next is to take a group of warriors with you. Take this letter and give it to the commander of the city troops. His name is Lu-Kog-Dao. And remember, don't let anyone know about this.

Here, use this to get to him."

When Tong-Kuang finished the sentence, he handed a tag to Lang-Guang-Kuang instantly. He wanted Lang-Guang-Kuang to rush to the Flower City in Greenland to deliver the two things to Lu-Kog-Dao. It took about a day and a half or two days to get there…

"Yes, big brother, I'll make sure it's done as quickly as possible," Lang-Guang-Kuang said while getting up and disappearing from the room immediately…

Lang-Guang-Kuang took about 10 men with him. Most of them were at either the fourth or fifth levels of the Foundation Building stage. All of them had the Spirit of the Wind as their hidden power…

About 100 lis towards the northwest of the forest from the first toll booth, a troop that was let by Yan-Yu and Ji-Zhung-Gong had reached the Cave of the Immortals. They scattered around the entrance area and hid themselves to wait for the signal from Tong-Kuang before breaking in…

"So, they're about a hundred men guarding the cave. And most of them are at the first to third levels of the Foundation Building stage." Yan-Yu said while smiling lightly…

"That's right… Let's compete to see how many men you and I can kill!" Ji-Zhung-Gong said with a smirk…

"Yeah, let's do that. But let's make a bet on it too." Yan-Yu did not wait to accept the competition and did not forget to make it a bet too…

"Fine. But what do you want to make a bet on?" Ji-Zhung-Gong also accepted the bet and asked about what Yan-Yu wanted to bet on…

"How about 500 lower-level Qi energy stones?" Yan-Yu said with a smile…

"500 stones!?"

The warriors, who overheard that, widened their eyes with shock. For them, 500 lower-level Qi energy stones were a very significant amount…

"Alright! You can start to prepare them for me! Hahaha!" Ji-Zhung-Gong said while laughing with confidence…

"Just laugh away! My laugh might be louder than yours!" Yan-Yu did not try to make it an argument, so he just turned back to look at the entrance of the cave…

There were about a hundred guards at the Cave of the Immortals, which was way more a lot than the troop that Yan-Yu and Ji-Zhung-Gong had brought. However, they were not as strong…

Clomp! Clomp! Clomp!

"Brother Yan! Brother Yan! There's something going on over there." One of the warriors said while pointing to his right-hand side…

Yan-Yu and Ji-Zhung-Gong turned to look in the direction quickly. They saw a group of people with about 10 carriages. They also saw several, big chests on the carriages with cloths over them…

"That's…!" Yan-Yu took out a communicative talisman once he saw the movement. He sent a voice message, saying, "Big brother! They're transferring the Qi energy stones, sir!" Then he turned to look at the caravan and waited for Tong-Kuang's reply…

Not long after that, Tong-Kuang responded, "Take care of them! Don't let them transfer the stones! And don't let anyone go!" Yan-Yu turned to look at his troops after Tong-Kuang finished the last sentence. He said…

"Are you guys ready…? We have to move anyway, ready or not. Go! Don't let anyone survive!" Yan-Yu shouted while soaring towards the caravan with great determination…

"Yah!"

"Kill them all!"
