Chapter 450 The Blessed Place in the Cave_1
"Mr. Su, whatever your plan is, please enlighten us. I will give you my full support," said Qiao Jingwu.
"The unusual phenomena at Nine Peaks Mountain have attracted many skilled hands to gather. Once the barrier is opened, I fear we might not be able to secure many treasures. I investigated the barrier last night and found a weak point. We might be able to break the barrier from this point, get inside ahead of others, and take the initiative," Su Chengyu replied.
"That sounds like good news," Qiao Jingwu exclaimed with delight upon hearing this.
"However, the encampment outside the mountain stream is guarded by the Dragon Soul Si Masters, two of whom are Great Grandmasters of rank seven and above. The moment I try to interfere with the barrier, they will surely notice. I need your help to create a distraction and buy me some time," Su Chengyu elaborated his plan.
After listening to Su Chengyu’s detailed plan, Qiao Jingwu considered for a moment before responding, "Although it’s somewhat risky, it’s worth a try."
Cao Taiming arrived in Anyang Town with three Hall Masters and other elites from the Black Dragon Commerce Association. He immediately ordered a search for Su Chengyu.
Su Chengyu anticipated that the murder of Yuan Dingkang would catch the attention of the elite members of the Black Dragon Commerce Association. At this point, he had already entered Nine Peaks Mountain.
Cao Taiming’s men, even if they were to ransack Anyang Town, would not be able to find Su Chengyu.
By dusk, Cao Taiming was sitting in a teahouse in the town center. One of his subordinates reported, "Third Master, we couldn’t find Su Cheng. He must have run away."
"He’s here for the treasures of Nine Peaks Mountain. He won’t run away so easily. Maybe he’s hiding somewhere inside the mountain," Cao Taiming speculated.
"What do we do then? It’s not easy to search through the vast Nine Peaks Mountain."
