Mortals cultivate immortality, I have a Chaos Tower

Chapter 387: Finding out the truth, Ouyang Hu meets Ye Qing secretly



As night fell, Yunzhou City seemed particularly heavy in the silence. On the towering city walls, patrolling soldiers stood in silence with guns, always alert to the outside world. Since Yan Wuji ruled Yunzhou City, the city no longer has the prosperity and peace of the past. The shops on both sides of the street have long been closed, and only a few vendors are quietly selling rare items. Most of the people in the city live in fear, and the rebels have been violently suppressed repeatedly. The entire Yunzhou City is like a huge cage, which makes people breathless.

In this atmosphere, a group of nervous young people quietly walked on the dark streets. Their steps were light, and their eyes carefully scanned the surroundings, always on guard against any disturbance. This group of people was the young people from Xueting Village led by Ouyang Hu. They sneaked into Yunzhou City on Lin Fan's orders to find out the whereabouts of Zhao Si and contact the resistance organization in the city.

Ouyang Hu looked solemn, knowing the importance of this mission. Lin Fan had placed great trust in him, and he had to do his best to complete the mission. The atmosphere in the city was so depressing that he felt uneasy, as if a storm was about to come.

"Be careful, don't attract anyone's attention." Ouyang Hu said to the young men behind him in a low voice, his voice full of seriousness. Although they were all extraordinary cultivators, they were in the heart of the enemy at the moment, and the slightest negligence could lead to a catastrophic disaster.

After passing through several dark alleys, Ouyang Hu led the team to the door of a hidden mansion. This was the place where he contacted the resistance organization "Fengyunhui" in the city. The door of the mansion looked very ordinary and inconspicuous, but Ouyang Hu knew that behind the door was a secret force that was against Yan Wuji's rule.

He knocked on the door gently, three times according to the agreed code. After a moment, there was a faint sound of footsteps from inside the door. The door slowly opened, and a thin middle-aged man stuck his head out, looking at Ouyang Hu nervously.

"Are you Ouyang Hu?" the man asked in a low voice, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

"It's me. Lin Fan sent me." Ouyang Hu nodded with a firm look in his eyes.

The man looked at him deeply, then stepped aside and motioned for them to come in.

Inside the mansion, the lights were dim, and several members of the Fengyun Society were gathered in a simple meeting room, discussing the situation in the city. Seeing Ouyang Hu and his party come in, everyone showed a vigilant look. Standing in the front was a young woman in plain clothes, with calmness and wisdom between her brows.

"Are you Ouyang Hu?" the woman spoke, her voice calm but full of majesty.

Ouyang Hu's heart was slightly shocked, and he immediately guessed that she was Ye Qing, the leader of Fengyun Society. He nodded and said respectfully: "Miss Ye, we are here on Lin Fan's orders to contact Fengyun Society and jointly plan to capture Yunzhou City."

Ye Qing nodded slightly, but his expression was still cold: "Lin Fan? Is he the Lin Fan who defeated the Yan army with a single axe ten years ago? Although he is famous, Yunzhou City is no longer what it used to be. Can he really fight against the current Yan Wuji?"

Ouyang Hu heard Ye Qing's doubts about Lin Fan and said quickly, "Brother Lin Fan's strength should never be underestimated. In the past ten years, his cultivation has broken through the foundation-building stage, and the power of the Qiankun Axe is even greater than before. Now he is leading Jin Buke, Zhong Ling'er, Jiang Shuiling and other strong men to prepare for a head-on attack on Yunzhou City."

Ye Qing pondered for a moment, still with some doubt in his eyes: "Yunzhou City is different now. Yan Wuji not only controls 3,000 elite soldiers, but the city walls have also been reinforced and protected by the 'Seven Stars Linked Beads Formation'. Even if Lin Fan is very strong, facing such a heavy defense, can you really break through the city with just a few of you?"

Ouyang Hu said in a deep voice: "Miss Ye, we are not acting blindly. Brother Lin Fan has already deployed a strategy of attacking from both inside and outside. If you Fengyun Club can cooperate with us from the inside and open the city gate, we will be able to break the enemy's defense line."

Ye Qing frowned slightly, and began to weigh the feasibility of this battle. She had indeed heard of Lin Fan's deeds. Ten years ago, he single-handedly turned the tide and shocked everyone. However, ten years later, the situation in Yunzhou City had already changed dramatically. Yan Wuji not only had superb cultivation, but also controlled the entire city defense system. It would not be easy to break through in one fell swoop.

"Besides a frontal attack, do you have any other countermeasures?" Ye Qing asked calmly.

Ouyang Hu nodded and said, "That's why we need your help. The people in the city have long been dissatisfied with Yan Wuji's tyranny. As long as Fengyunhui can contact these resistance forces, we will have a chance to disintegrate their defenses from the inside."

Ye Qing was silent for a moment, looking at Ouyang Hu with complicated eyes. Her fingers tapped lightly on the table, obviously weighing the pros and cons. After a while, she finally spoke: "Okay, I can agree to cooperate with you, but there is one condition."

Ouyang Hu raised his eyebrows and asked hurriedly: "What are the conditions?"

"I hope to see Lin Fan's strength with my own eyes," Ye Qing said slowly with a scrutinizing look in his eyes, "After all, I can't fully trust him based on rumors alone."

Ouyang Hu's heart sank slightly, but he quickly nodded and agreed: "You will see it, Brother Lin Fan will never let you down."

Ye Qing nodded slightly, then she signaled her men to fetch a map and showed Ouyang Hu the defensive layout of Yunzhou City. She pointed to several key points with her slender fingers and said calmly: "Here are the three important lines of defense in the city, namely the East Gate, West Gate and the main castle of the inner city. When you attack head-on, we will create chaos near the East Gate to divert the enemy's attention. As for Zhao Si, according to our intelligence, he is imprisoned in the underground cell of the main castle of the inner city, and his life or death is unknown."

Hearing the news about Zhao Si, Ouyang Hu's eyes flashed with worry: "We will try to rescue Zhao Si, but once the battle starts, the enemy will react quickly, I'm afraid time is limited."

Ye Qing nodded: "So we must fight quickly and decisively. While you guys are attacking from the outside, I will lead the Fengyun Club members to cooperate from the inside, create chaos, and buy time to open the city gate."

Ouyang Hu breathed a sigh of relief, and gradually felt relieved. Although the situation was difficult, at least they had reached a cooperation. Now they only had to wait for Lin Fan to lead the army into the city, and then it would be their time to counterattack.

At this moment, a member of the Fengyun Club hurried into the meeting room and reported in a panic, "Miss Ye, there seems to be some unusual movement in the garrison of Yunzhou City. The number of patrol teams in the city has increased several times, and the patrols are more stringent."

Ye Qing frowned slightly, his expression solemn: "It seems that the enemy has noticed something."

Ouyang Hu's heart sank, and he immediately realized that time was running out and there could be no more delay: "In this case, we must act as soon as possible. If we delay a step, I'm afraid the defenses in the city will be even tighter."

Ye Qing nodded and gave a decisive order: "Send a message to all members of Fengyun Club to prepare for action immediately. We must launch a surprise attack before the enemy completely strengthens its defense."

Ouyang Hu looked at Ye Qing's decisiveness and calmness, and secretly admired her command ability. Although her cultivation was not high, her strategic vision and command ability were impressive. Now, everything was ready, waiting for Lin Fan to lead the army to launch an attack.

As the night deepened, Lin Fan outside Yunzhou City was also making final arrangements. He looked firmly at the city wall in the distance, and had a plan in mind to break into the city.

Jin Buke stood aside, holding a long sword, full of fighting spirit: "Brother Fan, this time, I must let Yan Wuji know what a real strong man is."
