"Then, Master, what do you need to prepare? And then, shall we set a time?"
Chen Qiushi tried his best to calm down, asking about the most crucial matters.
He naturally hoped it would be as soon as possible. Those detained department members were definitely not having an easy time in the Xuanmen sect.
Chen Qiushi understood the principle of 'delay breeds trouble' better than anyone, but he couldn't rush her. After all, the Master was helping him.
Yaoyao shook her head, "No need to prepare much, Great Uncle. We'll depart in an hour."
She could see the Great Uncle's urgency, and she herself couldn't wait too long.
If the Xuanmen allowed that batch of Third and Fourth-tier department members to sustain injuries or disabilities, it would still be a problem.
And this hour was not for Great Uncle, but for herself to prepare.
Because this was an assault on a major Xuanmen sect, Yaoyao, confident as she was, still needed to be fully prepared.
Old Daoist had told her that when fighting, one must bring all their equipment, so they could fight with ever-increasing vigor.
"Ah? Good... good!" Chen Qiushi was first startled to hear 'one hour', then instantly overjoyed.
He had expected the Master to say a few days, but who knew it would be a mere hour? This was practically no different from leaving right now.
Thus, he became incredibly excited.
Just in case, Chen Qiushi didn't idle during this hour. He rummaged through the deepest treasures in the storeroom, just so he could hold his own later.
The entire office quickly received the news and became wildly excited.
"Ahhh, the Master really agreed!"
"Hahahahaha, Qingyu and the others are saved!"
"With the Master's abilities, this time, those Xuanmen scoundrels will definitely get a huge lesson. Let's see if they still dare to think we're soft targets from now on!"
The members of the Special Operations Group had reached the peak of their trust in Yaoyao. Even when facing the enemy's main stronghold, they didn't believe the Master would lose.
However, for them, the only regret was not being able to witness it personally.
And an hour was quite ample time.
Chen Qiushi not only packed his things but even waited at the bureau's main gate twenty minutes early.
He even put on a new set of clothes, his face radiant with anticipation, which caused the security guards on duty to frequently steal glances at him.
When Yaoyao arrived, she naturally noticed this, curiosity flickering in her large eyes.
"Isn't this just to avoid embarrassing the Master? New clothes look more energetic."
Chen Qiushi's old face flushed slightly under the child's gaze. Fortunately, he had tanned a bit recently, so it was almost unnoticeable unless one looked closely.
"Mmhmm, then let's go directly," Yaoyao smiled, not exposing Great Uncle's little thoughts.
Because at this moment, she wasn't much better than him.
A heart-guard mirror, a Profound Jade Gourd, a peach wood sword, and on her wrist, two talisman rings made of high-tier talismans...
To say she was sparkling with treasure wouldn't be an exaggeration; Chen Qiushi was almost blinded.
He didn't find it exaggerated. On the contrary, the Master's thorough preparation boosted his confidence in this challenge even further.
The Tai Cang Sect was located southeast of the Imperial Capital, a journey of three hundred kilometers.
Yaoyao could directly use Earth Evasion Art for convenient travel, and although Chen Qiushi's cultivation was lower, by applying talismans, he wouldn't fall behind.
The two, one in front and one behind, arrived at the Tai Cang Mountain Daoist Gate in just about fifteen minutes.
This was also why they didn't bring anyone else; it would hinder their travel, and they wouldn't be able to help anyway.
"Master, what do we do now?"
Chen Qiushi looked at the ancient Daoist temple gate, his gaze returning to the Master. In the depths of his eyes, there was also a hint of curiosity; he wanted to know how she would begin.
"It's very simple. Just fight our way in directly."
Yaoyao clenched her chubby little hands, and two small canine teeth showed at the corner of her lips.
Old Daoist had told her that because she was young, she couldn't out-reason others. He said if you can win, use your fists; if you can't, wait until you can win, then use your fists.
Clearly, she could sense two or three auras aligned with heaven and earth within the Tai Cang Sect.
This was a method only available to Seventh-tier cultivators. Unless they deliberately restrained themselves, there would be no possibility of hiding from cultivators of the same tier or higher.
Perhaps Seventh-tier Xuan Masters would restrain themselves when traveling outside, as it would be too ostentatious.
But within their own mountain gate, what was there to be afraid of? Of course, they would display it to intimidate minor foes.
As for those who still forcefully acted after sensing it, those would be true great enemies, and at that point, they wouldn't be able to hide either.
"Fight... fight our way in? This... this might be... too direct?"
Chen Qiushi couldn't help but swallow, clearly startled by the Master's bluntness.
He knew that a fight was inevitable today if they were to retrieve the department members, but starting with an immediate brawl made his head spin a bit.
"Great Uncle, right now, we have no room for negotiation!"
Yaoyao spoke plainly.
Although she was young, she understood the principle that the weak have no right to speak.
Great Uncle didn't have any high-tier cultivators on his side, which was why the Tai Cang Sect dared to openly detain their people. If she didn't win this fight, how could they even talk about negotiating?
It would be faster to just drink some wine and go to bed.
At Yaoyao's answer, the latter also fell silent, for he knew his own affairs best.
"They're here!"
Just as Chen Qiushi hadn't fully recovered, Yaoyao, standing beside him, raised a delicate brow and said crisply.
Huh? What's here?
At these words, a hint of doubt involuntarily arose in his heart, and he turned to ask.
However, the next moment he shut his mouth, because within the range of his spiritual perception, two terrifying spiritual pressure waves surged like a tide.
And the source of their impact was precisely the Tai Cang Sect's back mountain peak. There was no need to guess who it was. He couldn't help but furrow his brows, feeling as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
"Great Uncle, don't be afraid. Just wait for Yaoyao's good news here!"
Her sweet little face showed two dimples. She wasn't surprised by the mobilization of the Tai Cang Sect's experts.
They were coming because she had deliberately leaked her Seventh-tier strength.
If two of the Tai Cang Sect's top experts could still sit still when an unknown Seventh-tier cultivator appeared at their mountain gate without warning, then that would truly be seeing a ghost.
Since they had already appeared, she would deal with them all at once, saving herself trouble.
Yaoyao's steps subtly shifted, and her figure vanished from the spot. This silent method made Chen Qiushi's hairs stand on end.
He knew beforehand that the Master was formidable and had mentally prepared himself, but he had never witnessed it firsthand.
Now, having seen it, he too grew excited, his gaze quickly sweeping towards the source of the two pressure waves.
As a Sixth-tier Spirit Master, his vision extended far beyond that of ordinary people.
With this glance, he indeed saw a tiny figure appear in the sky above the mountain peak.
She slowly extended her small hand, and boundless spiritual energy of heaven and earth converged into a gigantic, sky-covering hand, pressing down as if the heavens were collapsing. Perhaps due to its immense force, the massive mountain itself was compressed, seemingly shrinking by a section.
"Presumptuous!"
"How dare you, young upstart!"
Almost the instant the palm descended, two startled and enraged shouts instantly erupted from deep within the mountain peak, their voices thundering like divine lightning, deafening to the ears.
