Chu Yang and the others finally began to take action during this period, coordinating with Mo Tianji to preserve the combat power of the Li family as much as possible. Whenever the situation became dangerous, the brothers would step in to help.
If the threat was closer to Chu Yang's side, then it was Chu Yang's team that organized the response.
If it was closer to the other side, Gu Duxing and Xie Danqiong would carefully consider their move.
On this point, the two did not have any discussions, but the decisions they made were essentially the same.
Whenever there was a battle, the brothers participated; when there was no battle, they immersed themselves in cultivation, digesting the experiences and insights gained from combat.
One by one, their cultivation levels increased rapidly.
Moreover, Chu Yang discovered something surprising: Gu Duxing and Xie Danqiong's command and timing for participation were becoming increasingly adept.
From initially struggling to keep up with Mo Tianji's rhythm to later being able to handle things with ease, they had obviously made significant progress.
In a situation where there was no one else to rely on, Gu Duxing and Xie Danqiong began to fully demonstrate their intelligence. Gu Duxing was gradually transforming from a purely combat-oriented warrior into a strategist as well.
At the very least, he had started to think critically.
For Gu Duxing, this was a remarkable breakthrough.
As for Xie Danqiong, he already had some foundation and was considered a person of considerable intellect in the middle three days; now, he was simply further developing himself.
Ji Mo and Rocky Luo remained steadfast, focusing solely on intensive training, relishing a sense of ‘the improvement in aptitude is fast, no slower than Gu Duxing and the others’ experience, and for the time being, they had no time to consider anything else.
All eight of them were steadily advancing on the path of supreme sixth rank, progressing bit by bit.
Especially Mo Qingwu, due to her innate spiritual vein, she had already reached the breakthrough point for seventh rank supreme, on the verge of a breakthrough.
Among everyone, Mo Qingwu was the youngest, yet she was relying on her exceptional physique to make rapid progress in cultivation.
Mo Tianji was also racing against time.
For him, time was the most pressing matter. Every day, he watched Ao Xieyun's progress, imagining Chu Yang and the others’ progress.
Ao Xieyun and Rui Butong were also pushed onto the battlefield by him. The only requirement was: all members of the Li family must die. You two must not lose a single hair. If you can’t win, run. If the enemy is strong, run... You two are completely outside of my strategic plan, it's just like catching two rabbits on New Year's Eve...
These two sentences made Ao Xieyun and Rui Butong feel both warm and wanting to beat Mo Tianji up.
Would it be better to say you caught two wild chickens? At least that sounds better than rabbits…
Diwu Qingrou's offensive waves were getting stronger, and Mo Tianji's pressure was also increasing; from each wave of attacks, Mo Tianji could clearly feel that Diwu Qingrou was using the strengths of the seven major families and the enforcers in turn.
Moreover, the targets she wanted to eliminate were also clearly indicated.
Mo Tianji, of course, welcomed all of them with open arms, devouring them all.
For example, Mo Tianji set up three defensive lines with balanced strength; Diwu Qingrou would launch simultaneous attacks from three sides, and among them, one side was a mandatory order that must be taken down...
And that side was definitely the one Mo Tianji felt the most pressure from, so he had to allocate all his forces to defend and counterattack.
The most interesting part was that Diwu Qingrou would command the takeover of the other side at this time, ignoring this side.
Mo Tianji could calmly deal with these enemies while Diwu Qingrou's side would also open up the situation.
Everyone was happy.
But some uncontrollable characters in Diwu Qingrou's team slowly disappeared; meanwhile, Mo Tianji often abandoned places that had strategic significance but were practically useless: if two nations were at war, they would of course fight for every inch of land.
