Chapter 594: Chapter 590: Eighteen Divine Feathers Riders

“Silly…child…” Tang Ming looked at the young man crying his eyes out, then rubbed his nose and murmured.

As he was about to provide some comforting words, he heard a report from a guard.

“Clan Leader, Minister Luo from the Marshal Star Pavilion is seeking an audience at the door, shall we allow him in?”

“Please, do invite him in.” Clan Leader Tang Zhi and representative Tang Ming exchanged glances, both confused as to why Tang Luo would seek an audience at this time.

A young man dressed in a black training uniform was escorted into the conference chamber. As soon as he entered, he frowned at the still crying Cai BuChu and said: “Go cry somewhere else, I have urgent matters to discuss.”

Though pulled aside, the young Wind Media, immersed in an overwhelming sense of happiness, did not respond until he managed to stop his crying.

“Greetings to the Clan Leader and Representative Ming.” Tang Luo gave a simple greeting then immediately got to the point: “Please send reinforcements immediately to the Great Elder. This batch of Celestial Bird Feather Guards are extraordinary, and the Martial Ancestor squad pursuing them is in danger!”

“What makes this elite squad different from ordinary Feather Guards?” Tang Zhi asked sternly.

“This elite squad appears to be led by Mi Hu. However, his cultivation level doesn’t even make it into the top ten in the squad. The warriors riding the Luan Birds are all strong entities from the Fierce Realm. Moreover, there are more than five top-tier Martial Ancestors. Such an elite squad will not fear the Great Elder or a squad of Martial Ancestors. There must be a trap. Please send reinforcements immediately to avoid disaster!” Tang Luo was anxious. He had a bad feeling when he saw the Great Elder chasing after them. But when he wanted to stop the Great Elder, they had already chased for several miles. So, he hastily ran to Zhen Yun Peak for help.

Although he spent most of his time at the station of the Marshal Star Pavilion, he was still closely monitoring the situation. Although the Mi Clan coalition army was powerful on the battlefield, they only launched a probing attack, and the number of top-tier Martial Ancestors was not enough for a full-scale attack. Seemingly, they only wanted to pin down the main force of the Tang Clan.

Tang Luo always wondered why Mi Hai and Mi Jin directed the army in this way. He knew that the more time passed, the more advantageous it was for the Tang Clan. It wasn’t until he discovered this elite squad that he realized that the Mi Clan’s real ace in the hole was here.

The Martial Ancestor who was on guard in the hinterland of North Mountain was either on rotation or injured. If they mistakenly treated this joint team as ordinary Celestial Bird Feather Guards, a catastrophe was inevitable!

After listening to Tang Luo, Clan Leader Tang Zhi’s eyebrows furrowed. Despite putting much emphasis on this elite joint team, he had still underestimated the scale of Mi Jin’s plot. Having five top-tier Martial Ancestors, who could direct a frontline battle on their own, was the equivalent of launching a surprise attack on the rear.

Tang Zhi couldn’t help but feel uneasy. He worried that the organizer would not treat this joint team seriously enough. He quickly ordered Cai BuChu: “Feng Yu! Take my token and find the Organizer immediately. Tell him the joint team is an unusual threat and have him summon the offerings from the Clan Shrine to support the Great Elder.”

The young Wind Media was still in tears. Suddenly burdened with an important task, he didn’t even have time to wipe his blurry eyes. He grabbed the token, bolted out the door, and sped away, swirling winds gathering at his feet making him strikingly swift.

Luckily the organizer had only left not too long ago. Being in the Clan Hall and deploying additional support should still be timely.

After ordering Cai BuChu, Clan Leader Tang Zhi turned to Tang Luo: “Thanks to Minister Luo’s reports, we narrowly avoided a huge disaster!”

Tang Luo couldn’t help but notice the Clan Leader’s compliment, and repeatedly humbled himself by saying: “I thought I reported in a timely manner. I didn’t expect the Clan Leader to have dispatched support even sooner. How could I claim any credit?”

As an elder and a young man courteously humbled each other, Tang Ming stood at the side, an amused smile on his face. He believed that with the offerings from the Clan Shrine participating, the Great Elder would be safe.

But Clan Leader Tang Zhi seemed to have a different opinion. He turned to Tang Luo and asked: “Minister Luo has astonishing eyes. Have you taken note of the Luan Birds ridden by the Mi Clan’s joint army?”

Although he didn’t know why the Clan Leader asked this question, Tang Luo closed his eyes and carefully recalled before answering: “I didn’t take a close look, but I do remember their general features. If there are illustrations, I can recognise them.”Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Although Tang Luo was humble, Tang Zhi knew that it means he had seen the birds clearly. Tang Zhi quickly relayed everything Cai BuChu had described about the tail feathers of the Blue Feather Falco: “Minister Luo, do the Luan Birds ridden by this joint team have this kind of feature on their tails?”

“Indeed.” After hearing Clan Leader Tang Zhi’s description, Tang Luo responded seriously: “The Luan Birds ridden by the Celestial Bird Feather Guards in the past have varied in their appearances and wing shapes. However, this batch of Luan Birds appear to have been carved from the same mold. Thus, I paid extra attention. The tail feathers of the Luan Birds are exactly like the Clan Leader’s description. There is no discrepancy.”

After the enhancement of the Undying Battle Body, there was an added silver ring in Tang Luo’s originally blackish-brown pupils. When the silver ring rotates, his eyes operate like binoculars, allowing him to see very far and wide, which is why he could detect this joint team first.

After hearing Tang Luo confirm his own description, Clan Leader Tang Zhi unconsciously furrowed his brows. He stepped up to the sand table, observing the depth of North Mountain and conducting inference with a serious expression.

“Representative Ming, what’s wrong with the Clan Leader?” Tang Luo didn’t know why Tang Zhi had suddenly turned into this state, so he turned to Tang Ming to ask.

“Minister Luo, you may not know this, but this Luan Bird is a product of enhancing the Blue Feather Falcon using secret techniques. The Blue Feather Falcon is known for its speed. After adding the bloodline of the Luan Bird, it becomes even faster. If this joint team is riding these Luan Birds, they will be able to attack and retreat like the wind, leaving our entire clan exposed to their attacks.”

“Representative Ming is correct.” Tang Zhi raised his head with furrowed brows, pointing to the depth of North Mountain: “Because of the existence of this joint team, we are now in a state where we can neither advance nor retreat. The geographic advantage of North Mountain has been completely wiped out. Moreover, our entire force is on the frontline. Even if all the reserve forces in the hinterland are dispatched, they won’t be able to defend the entire rear.”

Tang Zhi had already concluded from the fast and fleeting combat style of this joint team that the main peak of North Mountain was not their primary target. The joint team targets the clansmen stationed in various mountains. Their purpose is to sow discord among the Martial Ancestors on the front line.

Although the clansmen of the first and second sequence would not be attacked at the moment, those of the third and fourth sequence and other side branches were all within the joint team’s attack range. Riding these fast Luan Birds, this joint team has the ability to launch attacks on the various clans inhabiting the rear of North Mountain from several different angles in a day. Though the joint team only has fewer than twenty riders, Tang Zhi felt a real threat from them.

He initially thought that the Mi Clan’s killer move would come when they retreated, but he didn’t expect it to start now!

What frustrates Tang Zhi even more is that, even if he asks the offerings in seclusion to come out, they won’t be able to catch up with this team of Luan Birds based on their speed. The Mi Clan’s Qingmu Battle Body is known for its defensive strength. With five top-tier Martial Ancestors covering their rear, Tang Clan was simply helpless against this joint team.
