Chapter 1516 Invading Enemy
Supreme Elder Yin Qiao only sensed that there was a powerful force spying in the dark, but at this juncture, he was not in a hurry to use his great magical powers to investigate further.

It's not that he didn't want to, but he was also afraid of using his great magical power to counter-reconnaissance, which might alert the enemy. It is definitely not a good thing to rashly expose one's strength when the opponent's origin is unknown.

Logically speaking, the enemy must have been attracted by the escort team and were concerned about the "property" in the car, but Supreme Elder Yin Qiao knew very well that what was in the car were not the spiritual stones and elixirs from the past, but the key equipment for their operation this time, which could not be lost.

He now even doubted whether the opponent was really coming for the "magic medicine and magic stones" in the car?

The various bandits nowadays are basically the former adventurers who have become bandits. Supreme Elder Yin Qiao knows a thing or two about what is going on inside. He knows that there are some strong characters in the adventurer's team, but these good characters can never reach the peak of strength in the inner world. At best, they can only be quasi-first-rate.

Moreover, there won’t be many such people.

Just like the Grand Secretary Tongye, he was also the leader of a famous adventurer team. Later, he accepted the amnesty of the Titan Academy and climbed all the way to the position of bachelor.

This is considered a dragon among men among the people.

In fact, it was only after entering the Titan Academy that the strength of the Grand Scholar Tongye was improved and he truly entered the ranks of first-class masters.

In other words, among the bandits, there are actually very few first-class masters with real strength and they are extremely rare.

But the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao actually sensed an extremely powerful existence on the other side of the secret spy. This existence was even almost qualified to challenge him, the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao, and even threaten him!

If there were one or even two such beings, Supreme Elder Yin Qiao knew he could handle them easily.

Ginger is still old and spicier. He Yinqiao has lived for so long, what big scene has he not seen? One or two strong men, in the territory of the Baoshu clan, the great elder Yinqiao is not worried about not being able to take down one or two such threats.

But the problem is, this power that is secretly spying on us, until Yin Qiao uses his magical powers to conduct a precise investigation, he cannot be sure how many such terrifying forces exist on the opposite side.

What if there are not just one or two, but three, four, or even more?

It is no exaggeration to say that if three such beings join forces to deal with him, Yin Qiao, even he, the ancestor of the Baoshu clan, would find it difficult, and even his life would be threatened.

He is the ancestor of the Baoshu clan and has all kinds of amazing skills. But who among the top masters these days doesn't have some tricks up their sleeves? What if the opponent has his own talents and has the means to restrain his skills? The outcome of this battle will be even more unpredictable.

Out of caution, Yin Qiao felt that he should first clarify the situation, or at least find out the other party's background.

It is necessary to let the Tongye University Scholar arrange a few experts to help. I am afraid that the escort team cannot handle this situation.

Tongye University Scholar had just returned from his own team, and now he had to go to recruit people again, so he was somewhat reluctant. Tongye University Scholar also didn't like to see the faces of these arrogant soldiers and generals. Although he was the deputy commander-in-chief, he often didn't speak so firmly because of the stain of the special medicine.

But since Supreme Elder Yin Qiao had spoken, he, as the deputy commander-in-chief, naturally had to do as he was told.

This time, with the order of the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao, it is expected that these arrogant soldiers and brave generals will not dare to be too presumptuous. If they dare to be presumptuous, he, the Grand Secretary Tongye, will use the name of the Grand Elder Yin Qiao to get angry and show his authority, just to give these fucks a blow and let them know that the Grand Secretary Tongye with Purple Gold Ribbon also has a temper and is not a soft persimmon in their eyes!

Seeing that the Tongye Grand Secretary had returned, these arrogant soldiers and warriors were a little surprised. However, these bastards were obviously intentional and did not take the initiative to pay attention to the Tongye Grand Secretary. They either pretended to organize their equipment, or pretended to look at the scenery and did not notice the Tongye Grand Secretary, or simply closed their eyes and rested, directly ignoring the Tongye Grand Secretary.

The Tongye Grand Secretary sneered, "Alright, stop pretending. I don't know your little tricks yet. The Supreme Elder Yinqiao has ordered a few people to assist the escort team to scout the enemy. Don't blame me for not reminding you, your every move is under the eyes of the Supreme Elder Yinqiao. If you don't care, I don't care either."

"Those who are willing to go out, please stand on my side."

The Grand Secretary of Tongye sneered repeatedly, but this time he did not try to appease her. Instead, he had a stern face and looked very unhappy.

Even though his status as a Grand Secretary with a Purple Gold Ribbon was somewhat exaggerated, it was a real identity. If he really got angry, none of these people would be so stubborn as to dare to confront him.

Someone heard him say this and smiled awkwardly: "Since the two bosses have spoken, count me in."

"I'll go as well."

Seeing someone volunteering, Jiang Yue also took the initiative to say, "Count me in, too."

He has always been low-key and not conspicuous. Many people don't know his identity or background. He volunteered, and others didn't take it too seriously.

Someone sneered and said, "Some people should be more self-aware and consider their own strength."

Jiang Yue didn't care about these rumors, just bullshit. He smiled and walked up to the Tongye University Scholar.

The Tongye University Scholar naturally knew his origins and nodded: "Very good, very good."

Soon, six people stood on the side of Tongye University Scholar.

While some people were still hesitating and considering something, the Tongye University Scholar directly announced the deadline.

"Six are enough. The rest of you stay where you are and raid the battlefield."

The rest of the people felt somewhat embarrassed, and even a little regretful. If they had known earlier, they would not have played the game of being reserved. What was there to be reserved about?

No matter what, it's not a bad thing to show off in front of the Grand Elder Yin Qiao. Even if it's this Tong Ye, he's a Grand Secretary with a purple gold ribbon. No matter how tainted a big shot is, he's still a big shot. It's not something that people like them can show off to.

Soon, the Grand Secretary Tongye brought them to the bachelor.

"Master Yun Geng, these six people will be under your command for the time being and will lend a helping hand to you."

The leader of the escort team, Scholar Yun Geng, was worried about the warning from Grand Elder Yin Qiao. The opponent was much more difficult than expected, and even Grand Elder Yin Qiao found it troublesome and issued a stern warning to him.

This undoubtedly gave Scholar Yun Geng a headache. Judging from the tone of Grand Elder Yin Qiao, even if he tried his best, he might not be able to defeat his opponent.

Seeing that Grand Secretary Tongye brought six elite soldiers for support, Grand Secretary Yun Geng breathed a sigh of relief.

At first glance at these six people, he could feel that the strength of some of them was not inferior to that of Bachelor Yun Geng. None of them was much worse than him, and there were even some who were stronger than him. He didn't know if it was an illusion.

For a moment, Scholar Yun Geng was overjoyed: "Thank you, Grand Secretary."

He was a bachelor of the Taiyi Academy, and had a hierarchy with the Tongye Grand Scholar. He did not dare to put on airs in front of the Tongye Grand Scholar.

Tong Ye nodded calmly: "Don't worry, with the order from Supreme Elder Yin Qiao, they will definitely listen to your command. However, you also have to be more careful, because these opponents are not easy to deal with."

"Yes, I will do my best. With the two masters in charge, I don't need to worry too much no matter how difficult the other party is."

The Grand Secretary of Tongye had a blank expression on his face and didn't say much.

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense and take action." The Grand Secretary of Tongye was also a little annoyed.

His eyelids have been twitching for the past two days. This is not a good thing. He has a premonition that something is going to happen, but he can't tell what it will be.

This made him a little suspicious. Was he going to fail on this trip to the surface?

Damn it, Tongye cursed inwardly, he didn't want to get involved in these things at all. This war was doomed to have no future, and Tongye University Scholar was really against it. Especially he himself, he didn't want to get involved at all.

Because he has no idea what role he should play in it, no matter what he does, he will end up being neither a good person nor a good person.

As a member of the Earth Core Clan, he certainly does not want the Earth Core Clan to be defeated, but he is also a prisoner of the surface humans, and there are restrictions from the surface strongmen in his body. His life depends on others' thoughts, and if the surface humans lose, he is likely to be in trouble as well.

He only hoped that he could stay as far away from the surface battlefield as possible, so that the surface human could feel his sincerity and forgive him, or even forget him.

But unfortunately, his superiors arranged for him to take part in this decapitation operation, and he was appointed as the deputy commander-in-chief. It was difficult for him to refuse.

What's even more hateful is that he originally wanted to find a relatively inconspicuous target to gang up on, but was called upon by the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao to follow him to the Da Zhang Kingdom.

The more you fear something, the more likely it will come.

The scholar of Tongye rubbed his eye sockets vigorously several times, trying to relieve the twitching of his eyelids. But his eyelids were so weak that no matter how he rubbed them, it didn't work.

"Oh, damn, what's going to go wrong?"

A thought suddenly flashed through the mind of the Tongye Grand Secretary, "Could it be that among these bandits, there are powerful humans from the surface? Could it be that that person... is also here?"

Thinking of this, Tongye University Scholar's heart was in a knot, and he suddenly remembered the old things in the Titan Academy three or four years ago. That person three or four years ago was a very terrifying existence.

The place was heavily guarded, arguably the most heavily guarded place in the inner world, yet he could enter and exit freely. This completely overturned the knowledge of the Tongye University Scholar about the humans on the surface.

That was the time when Tongye University Scholar was completely conquered and scared out of his wits. He didn't even think that the powerful man on the surface was someone he could resist. He shouldn't even have the thought of resisting.

Over the past three or four years, Grand Secretary Tongye has tried his best to downplay and forget the fear of being dominated by such a powerful person.

But from time to time, a voice would ring in his mind, reminding him.

If that person came in person, it would be hard to say who would win today's game. Even if the Supreme Elder Yin Qiao was in charge in person.

However, Tongye University Scholar changed his mind and decided that if he lost this round, it might not be a bad thing. At least he wouldn't have to go to the surface battlefield or to the Dazhang Kingdom anymore.

Thinking of this, Tongye University Scholar's mood inexplicably improved a lot.

He was afraid of meeting the powerful man on the surface before, but suddenly he was looking forward to it. He felt that he had been very honest in the past three or four years, and he also indirectly helped the surface people complete their plan to promote special medicine.

Tongye is definitely a great contributor to the implementation of the plan of the surface humans.

If the inside story was exposed, even if Tong Ye was skinned alive a hundred times in the Earth's Core, it would definitely not be enough. To the Earth's Core, he was an unprecedented traitor, and even dying a thousand times might not be enough.

Well, considering this contribution, the human on the surface shouldn't make things difficult for me, right?
Besides, I have been very honest in the past few years. I have never participated in any war against humans on the surface, nor have I done anything disrespectful.

While the Grand Secretary Tongye was thinking, suddenly a man came running back from a distance with injuries all over his body. One of his arms was missing, and he had at least seven or eight wounds all over his body.

This person was the elite scout sent out by Scholar Yun Geng at the beginning, and was also the elite under his command.

He was covered in blood and looked panicked. He fell down before he could get close, spitting blood from his mouth. He shouted, "Lord Tongye, our first batch of scouts were attacked in an area thirty miles outside. The whole army was wiped out. I was the only one who escaped back..."

The Tongye Grand Secretary was horrified: "Where is Yun Geng? Didn't you see him when you came back along the way?"

"Mr. Yun Geng is taking people to the front line for support and asked me to come back to report." As he spoke, blood gushed out of the man's mouth and he fell directly to the ground, unable to move anymore. No one knew whether he was dead or alive.

No matter where the Tongye Grand Secretary sits, he will definitely not keep silent about such an incident.

He immediately called a military doctor and said, "Quick, treat him."

The Grand Secretary Tongye did not dare to stay and quickly came to the Grand Elder Yinqiao to convey the news that this person had been brought back.

Grand Elder Yin Qiao's face turned gloomy. "I warned Yun Geng a long time ago, but he didn't take it seriously. This time he lost a lot of troops, so it's good for him to learn a lesson."

The Tongye Grand Secretary asked for advice: "Sir, should we send another group of troops to provide support? I just selected six people, but I'm afraid it won't be enough?"

"Hmph, whether it's enough or not, don't send any more people over. How can you be sure that the opponent is not trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain?"

The Tongye Grand Scholar nodded hesitantly: "Then let's just hold our troops. These bandits are really bold and daring. They dare to be so rampant in the territory of the Baoshu tribe."

The Supreme Elder Yin Qiao said calmly, "I'm afraid that this time the people who came here are not kind, they are not ordinary bandits, but have other backgrounds."

"Sir, should we call for reinforcements?" This was the territory of the Baoshu tribe. If we asked for help, we could still get some. There must be strong men in the Baoshu tribe. If they came, we might still be in time.

Grand Elder Yin Qiao snorted coldly: "Everyone has important tasks to do now, where can we get so many reinforcements?"

Having said that, Grand Secretary Tongye always felt that Grand Elder Yinqiao was not unable to accept the request because he did not have enough reinforcements, but because he could not save face.
