Gu Xia had noticed it the moment the demon man extended his spiritual sense. She squatted in the corner and did not move rashly, even her breathing became lighter.

Therefore, the other party did not realize that the person he was thinking about, Gu Xia, was actually squatting not far away and observing them secretly.

There were about twenty to thirty monks captured in this team, which was not too many, but definitely not too few either. In addition, there was a group of demons and monsters watching them from the side.

Not to mention that there are two powerful masters in the Spirit Transformation Stage.

Gu Xia calculated that it would be difficult to rescue everyone without anyone noticing and without alerting them.

Furthermore, she had to ensure that the captured monks would cooperate with her. Otherwise, if she delayed the time, she would not only not be able to save them, but she herself would probably have to go in with them...

Eh? !

Gu Xia's eyes lit up.

Yeah, I almost forgot.

She could have sneaked in, too.

The demons obviously left these monks behind because of their respective identities, so they will not kill them for the time being.

If she could find the right time to sneak in and first find a way to gain the trust of these captured monks, then the rest of the things would be much easier.

As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking the tiger's den. After making up his mind, Gu Xia immediately began to make preparations.

Isn't it just to capture a monk with status? Although she can't reveal her identity as a direct disciple, isn't there another option?

She gives herself an identity when she goes out. She says she is from the Ye family/Xu family/Shen family/Gu family... Oh, this won’t work.

This has to be passed.

The demons are almost going to have PTSD about the word "Gu". She is afraid that they will turn hostile immediately after hearing it, which would be bad.

And everyone is a good friend.

There are so many people of status among the five clans, what's wrong with her impersonating any one of them?

Justifiedjpg.

As for the jade slip issue, that is even simpler. It’s just a matter of changing the note.

So she chose a position that was neither too far nor too close, then tore off the concealment talisman on her body, no longer trying to hide her breath, and made her hair look a little messy, then put the spirit sword hanging on her waist into the mustard seed bag.

Even his apparent cultivation level was disguised, and slight fluctuations in spiritual power were inevitable in the process, but just this little bit was enough.

According to Gu Xia's observation just now, compared with the Scorpion-tailed Demon King, the demon man is still very perceptive. Even at such a long distance, the other party can capture the slightest movement in the first time.

as predicted.

In just a moment, a black shadow appeared in front of her.

Gu Xia calculated the time, closed her eyes the second before the other party was about to push her to the ground, and fell to the ground with a thud.

As if she was just an ordinary, injured and extremely weak little girl.

The demon cultivator who hadn't actually touched her finger yet: "?"

Is this a scam?

He has been a demon for so long, but this is the first time he has seen someone dare to try to scam him. The man narrowed his eyes and instantly became interested.

"take away."

Two faint words were uttered, and the demons behind him heard the sound and immediately stepped forward, dragging Gu Xia away one by one.

"..."

Gu Xia still had her eyes closed and didn't move, but deep down she was already screaming like a groundhog.

In order to make it appear more realistic, she had fallen hard just now, and now she was being dragged away by two demons and was almost killed.

Damn it, couldn't you be a little gentler?

Just wait for her, she will take revenge soon.

*

at the same time.

Different from the exciting infiltration on Gu Xia's side, the disciples on the other side of the battlefield welcomed a brief period of peace.

According to their previous speculation, the support from the demon clan should be on the way now.

Therefore, after calming down the injured cultivator, everyone did not dare to relax their vigilance. Several sword cultivators volunteered to go out and investigate several times. Finally, Xu Xingmu came back with his head down. He curled his lips and said, "What? There was no movement after those monsters and demons withdrew, and there was no trace of the people that Junior Sister mentioned."

Every sword cultivator is a warmonger. The battle not long ago made his blood boil, and he is still eager to fight the demons.

It’s a pity that he found nothing.

"Isn't it good news that there is no movement?" Jiang Chaoxu couldn't quite understand his train of thought. He sighed, "In the previous battle to defend the city, everyone was almost wiped out."

You have to know that he is a weak alchemy practitioner who cannot take care of himself, but he was forced to kill the demons.

There was no way, he just wanted to distribute pills to others, but some blind demons rushed up to chop him.

Jiang Chaoxu still valued his life very much, so he could only send the other party to death with poison and reunite with his companions.

Is this a distortion of human nature or a loss of morality?

"And..." He raised his voice slightly and smiled: "Do you know how many pills were consumed in the previous battle?"

The other alchemy practitioners also glared at him.

That's it.

The sword cultivators lowered their heads guiltily and dared not say a word.

This sentence should be said to them, because sword cultivators are the group that consumes the most pills.

Xie Baiyi coughed unnaturally. How could a sword cultivator have so many pills on him? On the battlefield, it was all up to these pill cultivators to restore people's health. They also knew what it felt like to eat a handful of pills until they were full. It could be said that they had never fought such a rich battle in their lives.

As a result, the sword practitioners were like people who had been given an injection of chicken blood, and they all let themselves go.

He changed the subject, "We still can't let our guard down. The demons and monsters haven't given up yet. The next reinforcements will surely be stronger."

"By the way, remind the other monks in the city to notify us immediately if they find anything unusual."

Yu Heng was the first to show his support, clapping his hands, "Okay, big brother."

"..."

Everyone ignored this guy. Ye Sui'an held his chin and said to himself, "I wonder where Junior Sister is now? Is she in any danger?"

Hearing his words, Gu Lanyi looked at him incredulously and said, "Forget it. You might as well pray that no unlucky person runs into her."

If he met other disciples of the Five Sects, he might have died quickly, but if he met a wicked guy like Gu Xia, he could only pray for him.

I hope the other person is okay.

Ye Sui'an: "..."

No, what kind of person is Gu Xia in your eyes?

Without waiting for the two to continue to exchange their "feelings" with each other, Jiang Chaoxu and Li Tingyun raised their heads at the same time and looked into the distance into the sky.

That was the direction of the two demon tribes that had retreated earlier.

"what happened?"

Jiang Chaoxu murmured in a low voice, "It seems...something is happening."

Li Tingyun had a cold expression and uttered two words.

"coming."
