Chapter 530 444: The Power of the Demon Suppression Stick Formation (Part 3)

Puff!

Several members of the Profound Armor Army were immediately struck, their chests caving in as they spat blood and collapsed to the ground, lifeless in an instant.

"Master, the monk's stick formation is remarkably powerful!" Lin Miao and the others stealthily infiltrated Xue Family Manor. With their skills and disguises, coupled with the chaos of battle, almost no one could detect them.

And those who did discover them either went to meet King Yama or were knocked unconscious.

If the Scorpion was a mantis, then they were the oriole.

The battle within the manor continued as the scattered martial artists brought by the Scorpion engaged in combat with the Dongshan Prefecture soldiers stationed there.

It wouldn't end anytime soon.

These individuals clearly intended to exterminate thoroughly, so the soldiers couldn't just meekly surrender themselves for slaughter. Whether by fighting or fleeing, they had to choose one option.

"Young Master, the people from the Green Blade Sect have entered that secret passage." Liansuo quietly approached Lin Miao from behind, whispering a report into his ear.

"Hmm, all right."

"Yes." Liansuo nodded, agreed, and turned to leave.

The secret vault of Xue Family Manor was constructed within the mountain, almost hollowing out half of it. The vault appeared to have only one entrance and exit pathway.

However, a secret escape passage had been left during its construction, situated deep within the vault. This escape route was supposed to be known only to members of the Xue Family or the people from the Green Blade Sect who built the vault.

But unfortunately, Lin Miao had discovered this passage.

And if the enemy wished to strike against Xue Family Manor, this passage would surely be utilized as a surprise attack route.

Therefore, Lin Miao naturally needed to strategize.

After consulting with Pei Jian, they first blocked the entrance to the vault, ensuring that even if someone entered the passage, they couldn't threaten the manor. Then they waited for the enemy to enter through the passage and collapsed the exit to suffocate everyone inside!

Since they were enemies, there was no need for mercy.

Lin Miao had originally thought the Scorpion would split his forces, sending some through the passage for a pincer attack from the center. Unexpectedly, it was the people from the Green Blade Sect who arrived.

It seems that the Green Blade Sect and Marquis Lingyang, along with the Scorpion, didn't fully trust each other, or perhaps the Green Blade Sect had its own agenda. Although their goals aligned, they weren't fully on the same side.

Regardless, this provided an opportunity for him and Pei Jian.

Since the Scorpion hadn't made a move, Lin Miao naturally wouldn't either. He wasn't sure what secret weapons his opponent might be hiding.

At least the mysterious beast scorpion hadn't acted yet, and no one knew where it was hiding. Even Ah Huo hadn't found it; this creature sure knew how to hide.

Since it was a mysterious beast, it naturally possessed some innate abilities.

Boom!

Amidst the stalemate of the final battle, a sudden loud noise erupted from the direction of the rear mountain. The entire ground shook, causing buildings to collapse and people on the ground to fall, exclaiming in alarm.

What's going on? Could it be an earthquake?

Everyone was in a daze.

Amidst the confusion, smoke and dust rose skyward from the rear mountain, as if half of the mountain had fallen into a deep pit.

The secret vault!

Pei Jian's face changed. Someone had entered through the passage, but fortunately, preparations had been made in advance. If someone had attacked from behind, this battle would be unnecessary.

The Scorpion was also puzzled, unaware of what had happened, but at this point, he had lost patience and decided to take action personally.

"Damn bald monk! Since you insist on meddling, I'll send you to meet the Buddha!" The Scorpion leaped into the air and struck out with a palm!
