Ancient Mountain Mystery (I)

Chapter 1 Headquarters Attacked

Xiao Ming and Xu Ruian ran all the way to the top of the mountain, but the familiar Kenghong Temple did not appear in front of them. The gate of Kenghong Temple was forcibly broken open, and there was no singing inside. The two looked at each other and rushed inside immediately.

Everyone inside fell to the ground, and everyone's neck was bleeding. They were all killed by a single blow, and they used the same move, a fatal attack.

A voice suddenly sounded: "Rui... An..." Xu Ruian looked in the direction of the voice and saw the elder person lying on his back on the ground. His clothes were chopped to pieces, and two daggers were inserted into his chest, stabbing his abdomen, and blood kept flowing out.

"Elder..." Xu Ruian was shocked and hurried to help him up.

"I didn't expect that he could find this place..."

"Who is he, why did he hurt you, and where is Ying'er?" Xu Ruian asked the elder anxiously.

"He is... a collection of disasters..." The elder died before he finished speaking. Xu Ruian was shaking when a voice suddenly sounded behind him. He looked back and saw that it was Master Yang Bin. He looked even worse, with one arm cut off, revealing the white bones. His face was covered with blood, and there were bloodshot at the corners of his mouth.

"Master Yang Bin?!" Xu Ruian asked hurriedly.

"It's... it's him, it's him..." Yang Bin said, covering his shoulder with his hand.

"Who?" Xu Ruian asked.

"God of Power." Master Yang Bin replied, "Ying'er was taken to Gushan!"

"I'll go save her!"

After Xu Ruian finished speaking, he hurried to the temple gate. He knew how dangerous Gushan was. They were exorcists, but he was also worried about Ying'er's safety.

At this time, a group of people rushed in. It was Yicheng who came with the guard team. They were also surprised at first, but they immediately treated the survivors. Then Xu Ruian explained the situation to Yicheng.

"Power God?" Yi Cheng frowned. He knew that this was a dangerous guy, but he also knew that he could not stop this from happening.

"What should we do now?" Xiao Ming asked Yi Cheng.

Yi Cheng said, "Let's wait a few more days."

"What about Ying'er?" Xu Ruian asked, "Are we just going to let her be taken away?"

"We are just ordinary people, how can we fight him?" Yi Cheng sighed, "Just hope that she is safe."

"Okay," Xu Ruian said angrily, "At worst, I will go by myself!"

"You are going by yourself?" Yi Cheng glared at him, "What can you do if you go? It will only cause trouble for everyone! Even if you go and save Ying'er, do you think that disaster will really let her go? He will kill her, torture her, and insult her!"

"What should we do?" Xu Ruian said, "Just watch her suffer?"

"Do you think this is easy? That will kill people!" Yi Cheng said helplessly.

"I would rather die than watch her being tortured." Xu Ruian said firmly.

"You..." Yicheng looked at him and sighed helplessly, "You are too stubborn. There are so many people in this world who need to be protected and so many things waiting for us to do. How can you ignore the lives of others for a woman?"

"I..." Xu Ruian lowered his head and dared not say a word.

"Forget it," Yicheng waved his hand and said to Xiaoming, "You go with him and bring her back."

Just as Xu Ruian was about to leave, Yicheng stopped him again, "This is for you." Xu Ruian took the thing in Yicheng's hand, "This is the Yang God pendant, which contains his power."

"Well," Xu Ruian nodded, "I will try my best."

Xiaoming walked up and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry, we can definitely do it!"

Yicheng took out another talisman, which was a teleportation talisman that allowed the user to teleport once. Xu Ruian took the talisman paper and bowed to him: "Thank you, Yicheng."

"Don't be long-winded, go quickly." Yicheng waved his hand.

Xu Ruian nodded and disappeared with Xiaoming.

The two went home, took their equipment, and agreed to meet at the foot of the mountain. Xiaoming returned to the house and took out his talisman.

"This talisman is called 'Invisibility Talisman'. It is a relatively low-level talisman, but it should work for this kind of situation," Xiaoming said, opening the talisman.

A blue light flashed in the air.

Xiaoming's figure disappeared from the house.

Xu Ruian came to the foot of the mountain, where there was a forest. Xiaoming had been waiting for a long time.

After seeing Xiaoming, Xu Ruian asked, "How are you ready?"

"I was ready a long time ago." Xiaoming nodded, "What about you?"

Xu Ruian nodded and handed the talisman in his backpack to Xiaoming.

"Then, let's go!" Xu Ruian said, and disappeared with Xiaoming in a flash.

Soon, they arrived at the notorious mountain where many exorcists had died. On the signboard next to it were written two large blood-red characters - Ancient Mountain.
