The sudden turn of events immediately threw the group of mountain bandits into disarray. Some of them clashed with each other in the chaos, with one even being trampled to death by their companions on the spot. The confusion allowed the 'special signal cannons' to unleash their might; those martial artists too close to the explosion site were engulfed in flames almost instantly.
After launching the fireball, Zuo Feng and his team quickly picked up their prepared crossbows and furiously fired into the group of bandits. The hunting party members outside the convoy were momentarily stunned by this unexpected change, but the archers soon came to their senses and swiftly released their arrows.
The bandits at the mountain pass had now become the target of all. Once holding a favorable position, they had turned into lambs awaiting slaughter.
