"The kerosene production in the Tianhu City area is abundant. Today, the enemy has invested a large amount of kerosene in order to resist our fierce attack." Duan Tianyang said thoughtfully in the night.

After hearing this, Yi Shuirou's eyes flashed with a gleam of light, and she said as if she had suddenly realized something: "Could it be that behind this dense forest is the source of the kerosene?"

Duan Tianyang nodded in confirmation: "That's right. As long as we cross this forest, we can reach the oil field."

Yi Shuirou suddenly understood and asked, "So, you risked your life to sneak into this place tonight in order to intercept the rebels' team transporting kerosene?"

Duan Tianyang shook his head and responded: "I am not sure whether the rebels will send people tonight."

Yi Shuirou stared at Duan Tianyang who was walking in front of her, and felt that his actions were erratic, unpredictable and puzzling.

She was dissatisfied and asked, "What if the rebels didn't come here to deliver the oil tonight?"

Duan Tianyang said with a smile: "Then just think of it as coming here to stroll and enjoy the moon."

After saying that, he stopped and turned around, looking at Yi Shuirou, and reminded her: "Princess, I may have to keep watch here tonight, you should go back and rest early."

Yi Shuirou showed displeasure on her face and retorted in a deep voice: "I told you a long time ago, don't treat me as a spoiled princess, I'm not that fragile!"

Duan Tianyang shrugged and said lightly: "Then it's up to you."

After passing through the dense woodland, there is a vast and lonely grassland ahead.

There are numerous mud pits scattered across this grassland, of varying sizes, some only one meter wide and long, while others cover an area of ​​several meters.

These puddles may look ordinary, but they are filled with dark liquid. They look muddy, but they are actually kerosene, which is modern crude oil.

Duan Tianyang stopped at the edge of the woods, staring at the grassland outside. After a moment, he moved, nimbly climbed to the top of a big tree, and sat down leaning against the trunk.

Seeing this, Yi Shuirou jumped up lightly with a graceful posture without seeing her build up any strength.

She first jumped more than three meters high, then pushed against the tree trunk with one foot, rose another two meters, and landed steadily on the branch above Duan Tianyang's head.

She looked down at Duan Tianyang, with a hint of provocation in her tone: "I want to see if you really guessed that accurately!"

Duan Tianyang had only known Yi Shuirou for a short time and didn't know much about her, but he could feel that she was definitely a woman with a stubborn personality and a strong desire to win.

The two of them sat quietly on the treetop, and the only sound around them was the rustling of the leaves in the breeze.

After a long time, Yi Shuirou whispered softly, breaking the silence: "Duan Tianyang, are you asleep?"

"No." Duan Tianyang answered briefly.

Yi Shuirou smiled slightly and continued jokingly: "It seems that you made a wrong judgment this time. Tonight, the rebels don't seem to plan to come here to transport kerosene..."

Before she finished her words, a subtle sound suddenly came from the depths of the jungle, as if someone was sneaking in the dark.

Although the sound was extremely subtle, Duan Tianyang and Yi Shuirou both had excellent hearing and immediately caught it with vigilance.

The two of them whispered almost in unison: "Someone is approaching!"

For Yi Shuirou, it was not surprising to hear such subtle movements. With her profound cultivation, she naturally had such keen perception.

However, what she didn't expect was that Duan Tianyang could actually detect this subtle movement.

You know, his cultivation level is only at the Void Breaking Realm, but it is really unexpected that he can have such outstanding perception ability.

She bit her lower lip and listened attentively. After a moment, she counted in a concentrated voice: "There are no less than fifty people coming!"

"Fifty-two people." Duan Tianyang added calmly.

Yi Shuirou couldn't help but lower her head and secretly glanced at Duan Tianyang under her.

Duan Tianyang noticed her gaze, raised his head to look at her, and smiled smugly.

Yi Shuirou snorted softly, then retracted her gaze and turned her eyes to the deep forest.

Three or four minutes later, a group of people walked out of the woods quickly.

They were all dressed in black night clothes, and each of them carried two large wooden barrels in their hands.

This group of people looked around from time to time while walking, appearing to be extremely cautious.

Yi Shuirou narrowed her eyes and carefully observed the man in black passing under the tree.

After they all passed, Yi Shuirou couldn't help but be secretly surprised: the number of the other side was neither too many nor too few, exactly fifty-two people.

Duan Tianyang's six senses are extremely sharp, even surpassing his own, which makes Yi Shuirou deeply confused.

What made her admire him even more was that Duan Tianyang's guess was so accurate, as if he had the ability to predict the future.

A group of men in black quietly passed through the woods, heading towards an oil pond with a clear goal.

They skillfully dipped the wooden barrel into the oil pool and then lifted it up. In an instant, the barrel was filled with kerosene.

During the entire process, people did not communicate a word and cooperated well, obviously they were already familiar with such operations.

Some kerosene, also known as crude oil, can burn directly, while others cannot, depending mainly on its water content.

The climate in Xiguan area is dry, so the crude oil here can basically be ignited directly.

The men in black moved quickly. After filling up their tanks with kerosene, they immediately turned around and returned deep into the woods.

On the treetop, Duan Tianyang stared at the approaching men in black. When they were about to reach the bottom of the tree, he suddenly leaned back and fell from the treetop like a falling leaf.

In the air, a long knife appeared in his hand and he swung it violently. With a "sha" sound and a flash of cold light, the throats of the two men in black who had arrived in front of the tree were cut by the sharp blade before they could react.

Blood spurted out from the throats of the two men like arrows, and the wooden barrels in their hands fell to the ground.

They covered their necks, looking at Duan Tianyang standing in front of them with disbelief in their eyes.

Before the two of them fell, Duan Tianyang had cleverly passed through them. Using the momentum of the forward charge, he stabbed out with his long knife again, deeply piercing the chest of the third man in black.

After a scream, the man fell on his back.

The other men in black saw this and their faces changed drastically. They hurriedly put down the barrels, drew their swords, and shouted in unison, "Who is it?"

"Earthling!" Duan Tianyang shot out like an arrow with a sneer.

The few men in black in front only had time to catch a glimpse of a dark shadow rushing towards them like lightning. Duan Tianyang passed by the men in black like a ghost. In an instant, blood splattered all over the bodies of several men in black. Their bodies swayed several times and finally fell to the ground.

Immediately afterwards, three martial artists among the remaining men in black quickly responded to the attack. They were covered in armor, two of them held knives, and one held a sword, and together they launched a fierce attack on Duan Tianyang.

The two sides immediately engaged in battle. The two martial artists holding knives chopped at Duan Tianyang's ribs respectively, while the one holding the sword leaped up, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Duan Tianyang's face.
