The Rise of the Dragon Warrior
Ch 173's. Sneaking out
Shen Long who already knew the rough location of the branch of the Black Scorpion Sect, immediately brought his entourage into the Forest.
" Brother Louzhy, are you sure of the path we take?" Zhang Lee asked who was a little surprised because Shen Long looked confused in leading the way.
" Yes... I'm so sure." Replied Shen Long who was using the Devil's eyes to avoid the many trap formations.
That's what makes Shen Long sometimes have to walk around and sometimes turn left or right.
" Why not just go through the shortcut." One of the Cultivators who felt disbelief in what Shen Long said, immediately took another direction.
Seeing the Cultivator's behavior, Shen Long simply shook his head while continuing his steps.
The jleeep! The jleeep! The jleeep!
Aaarrrggghhhh!
Shouted the Cultivator who had just taken a few steps to take another path, directly hit by the trap of arrows lodged in his body.
" Sister." The other cultivators were shocked, then took their fellows who were hit by the trap Formation with great caution.
After their comrades were already in a safe place, the other Cultivators directly helped their comrades to pull out the arrows.
" Repair yourself first." Zhang Lee gave the Pill to recover the Cultivator's energy.
" Thank you young master." The cultivator took the Pill and put it in his mouth.
Now the eyes of Zhang Lee, Zhang Yuxing and the Zhang Clan members were on Shen Long who could tell the existence of the trap Formation, where they saw nothing but trees and shrubs.
" Brother Louzhy, it looks like you have a special ability." Zhang Lee grew increasingly interested in Shen Long being able to see something they could not see.
" Maybe it's just a coincidence." Zhang Yuxing said with a sniffle.
Hearing Zhang Yuxing's words, Shen Long was not angry at all. Even he was very happy if the woman was being cold to him.
" Yes... It's just a coincidence." Shen Long nodded as he looked at their injured comrade.
After taking quite a long time, now the previously injured Cultivator had recovered and looked towards Shen Long.
" Brother Louzhy. Sorry in advance for doubting you." The cultivator clenched his hands together as a gesture of respect.
" It doesn't matter brother. Now let's get back on our way." Shen Long nodded then walked over to lead the way to them.
After traveling for a whole day, Shen Long and his party had now reached the headquarters of the weakest branch of the Black Scorpion Sect in the region.
" Brother Louzhy, it looks like we can't do a fight if it's dark. It'll be too dangerous, because we're in the enemy's enclosure." Zhang Lee said that his views are now increasingly limited.
" But I find it easier to beat them at midnight." Shen Long speculated that carrying out the attack in the dark was an advantage for their side.
Of course with his Demonic eyes, Shen Long could kill the enemy party easily.
Hearing the remark, Zhang Lee simply followed Shen Long's direction. Either this time Zhang Le, Zhang Yuxing and the Zhang Clan members preferred to believe what Shen Long said.
" Alright, we're following your lead." Zhang Lee nodded in agreement then took the place to wait for midnight time.
On the other hand Shen Long directly took a Cultivating position to study and merge the Celestial Dragon Book and the Thousand Swords Book.
" There are only two books I have not yet learned." Shen Long stared at the two books with only blank sheets.
Even though Shen Long had already dripped his blood on the two Books, there was not the slightest response.
Midnight had arrived, Shen Long halted his training then brought the group closer to the branch of the Black Scorpion Sect in a settling position.
" Brother Louzhy, it seems like the two Cultivators guarding the gate have already reached the 6th level of the Swordsman Realm." Zhang Lee said as he watched the gate from a dark place.
" Yes... Let me kill them." Shen Long walked over to the gate in a settled position behind the darkness of the night.
Luckily the two Cultivators were only focused facing forward, so Shen Long could walk carefully through the side directions.
" The Wind Dragon Steps."
Slaaash! Slaaash!
Shen Long moved quickly instantly slashing the necks of the two figures to death without making a sound.
For a moment Shen Long stared in a direction, where some Cultivators were sleeping fast.
Naturally the branch members of the Black Scorpion Sect did not feel worried because their sect was in a hidden place and surrounded by many traps.
" Support me." Shen Long smiled widely and slashed at the necks of those sleeping Cultivators without making a sound.
After that Shen Long gave a code to Zhang Lee and the others in order to move to sneak into the branch of the Black Scorpion Sect.
Not forgetting that Shen Long pointed his Plaque at the corpse he had managed to kill also took something precious behind their clothes.
" We better split it into three groups. I'll walk to the center, while the other two groups take the left and right." Shen Long distributed the task to them to make it faster.
While Shen Long wanted to move on his own, to be more free to carry out attacks secretly.
" Louzhy brother, Zhang Yuxing is with you. Sister Yuxing, you help brother Louzhy. We'll split the task." Zhang Lee distributed their group, then asked Zhang Yuxing to accompany Shen Long as he had already reached the level 3 Earth Swordsman.
Naturally Zhang Lee desperately wanted the girl to be close to Shen Long, for them to be familiar.
Despite wanting to refuse, Zhang Yuxing only nodded lightly, as it was an order from the young master of the Zhang Clan.
" Okay, we better do it now! If necessary, don't cause a fuss." Shen Long rushed over from the venue, despite not wanting Zhang Yuxing too much to follow him.
Likewise with the other two groups, they also did their duty by sneaking into various places.
On the other hand Shen Long and Zhang Yuxing also swiftly killed some Cultivators who were patrolling in some places.
" Brother Louzhy, don't we just go inside that building?" Zhang Yuxing said in a soft tone as he pointed to a building where the Black Scorpion Sect branch members live.
" Later! We must kill the members who are on guard. They're too many, if we go inside it'll cause a commotion." Said Shen Long in a soft tone as he secured the corpse they killed so that it was unknown to the members who were patrolling.
Luckily the branch members of the Black Scorpion Sect no one reached the Sky Swordsman, otherwise they would be caught out.
