The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 463 - 270 Ambush

For cultivators, from which angle to attack her small building isn’t the sa? These pedantic fools; no wonder they were always played in circles by Qi Zai before.

But she was also furious. Those people from Tianlan Courtyard, repeatedly causing her trouble, really think she’s an easy target to pinch? The grudge from that day of being injured, today was the perfect day to settle it thoroughly. She gave Tu Jin a aningful look, and he, knowing the cue, revealed a ferocious smile and slowly disappeared into the darkness.

Her guess was correct. Old K Face and a few others, considering themselves as dignified cultivators, truly haven’t done such thuggish acts as ho invasion before, and it made them uncomfortable ntally, but it didn’t hinder them from troubling Ning Xiaoxian. The welcoming ceremony was only a couple of hours away, after which where could they find this slippery as a ghost duo again?

Old K Face knew that loose cultivators resided at Crane Peak, but after inquiring all afternoon, and with great difficulty finding her residence, how could they readily let go. They also knew that taking action inside Guangcheng Palace was taboo, so everything had to proceed quietly. However, they assud with the team consisting of one Nascent Soul Stage and two Golden Core Middle Stage, taking down Ning Xiaoxian and Qi Zai shouldn’t be a problem.

The moonlight was dim and unclear, making everything inside the small building not very visible. Old K Face looked at the tall courtyard wall, not mad enough to plunge right in: who knows what array or restriction might be waiting for him?

He thought for a mont, took out a palm-sized object, similar to an enlarged pine cone, but colored in purple gold, shimring brightly and very pretty. After taking this object out, he gently blew into it, and imdiately from the pine cone flew out a swarm of tiny bees! These bees were smaller than honeybees by two sizes but had a red and black color, with large pincers on their jaws, and the tail’s red needle emitted a faint light, clearly not easy to deal with.

The buzzing sound from bees when flying is usually not small, but these bees flew silently, making them excellent tools for stealth attacks.

This swarm of bees only totaled around ten, and although they looked strange, their size was too small, dispersed in the large courtyard they were hardly noticeable. In this small building filled with floral fragrances, with a few bees on each leaf, each flower, what was there to notice? But Old K Face was certainly not sending them in to help Ning Xiaoxian’s plants in the garden with pollination. These bees were called Ding Ning Bees, spiritually connected to their master, capable of scouting, biting, and harming enemies.

This mutant poisonous bee could penetrate most cultivators’ protective Gang Qi. Although the tail’s poison needle looked fierce and indeed had the effect of releasing deadly poison upon stinging the enemy, the real trump card was the six legs under its abdon. They too had small, sharp spikes that could unknowingly scratch the skin of humans and beasts, injecting the powder on their legs into the bloodstream, creating intense hallucinations. Cultivators could be immune to most poison attacks, but this hallucinogenic powder did not categorize as poison, hence it was also effective on cultivators.

Old K Face wasn’t planning to take Ning Xiaoxian’s life just yet; capturing her alive would be the best outco, so after issuing several commands, the swarm of bees quietly flew into the courtyard under the cover of night. Old K Face and his companions also did not rush, standing under the trees with hands behind their backs for a while.

Sure enough, after a short while, two bees flew out, circling in front of him in an O-shape, which ant that there were no arrays in the courtyard, otherwise the bees would have noticed. As for barriers, if Ding Ning Bees could fly in, it ant that there was no barrier set up to prevent entry.

It seems they are unaware of their arrival? Old K Face was in deep thought, then two more bees flew back, crossing each other in front of him twice, according to trained commands, representing the character "two", indicating there were two people in the building. That should be Ning Xiaoxian and the Big White Bird Qi Zai. The group exchanged glances, faces filled with joy. It was good to have the targets here, as they feared that this person and bird might not be ditating and could have run out in the middle of the night, making their trip in vain.

After waiting a bit longer, no more bees ca out. Old K Face’s expression changed, knowing sothing was amiss inside, otherwise more bees would have co out to report. With high skill and bold courage, knowing there were no arrays or barriers to block the way, the two people inside were no difficulty for them; thus, they no longer hesitated, activating their magic artifacts to fly into the courtyard.
