Chapter 277: Ace in the Sleeve (1)
Rong Yi looked back, and saw that Elder the First, Elder the Sixth, Qi Lan and Xinyue were all standing behind, glaring at him.
Xinyue sulked, “Rong Yi, you are so dead.”
Qi Lan stared at him with cold anger, “This time it is your turn to fall into my hand.”
“…” Pian s.h.i.+ scanned all of them, and three of them seemed to be at Mahayana, higher than him. And this Rong Yi was really something. A man at level four of Qi Practicing had offended three with such high cultivation. He was really curious how he had lived till now.
Rong Yi greeted them with a smile, “Two elders, senior brother, what a coincidence! We are actually a.s.signed to the same land this time Oh right, two elders, are you here asking the antidote from Jinye?”
Elder the First, “…”
Elder the Sixth, “…”
“Antidote? What antidote?” Qi Lan had been locked in the secret realm recently, and the first thing he did was here to get even with Rong Yi, so he totally had no time for other things.
Rong Yi explained to him, “Elder the Fourth and Elder the Seventh got poisoned and are going to die soon. Only Jinye has the antidote to save them, but recently Jinye has some misunderstanding with the elders, so, he still hasn’t given them the antidote yet. If you could take me out of here, maybe I will consider persuading Jinye to save the two elders.”
Elder the Sixth hummed, “Save your crocodile tears. You should already consider yourself lucky as we do not take your dog life. Now you still want us to take you out of here?”
“Is that so? Alas! All right. I can understand. After all, if I die, you can expand your family. Elder the Fourth and Elder the Seventh also make their contributions to sacrifice themselves for the family. It’s worth it. I am also very happy to have companions on the way to netherworld. But anyway, I am alone, while they die of two. A total bargain for me.”
“You…” Elder the Sixth took up his sword in great anger.
Elder the First held his hand.
“I may die here at any moment, but I still feel grateful that you could spare me.” Rong Yi thanked them, cupping his hands.
“Don’t talk nonsense with him. He’s just buying time.” Xinyue then sway her sword and jumped at Rong Yi.
Pian s.h.i.+ released his spiritual qi and bounced her back.
Xinyue stumbled back a few steps, with her sword pointing at Pian s.h.i.+, “Who are you?”
Pian s.h.i.+ ignored her.
Qi Lan positioned Xinyue not to take any rash action, then released his spiritual pressure, “Rong Yi, as for how you treated me before, now I’m gonna give it back!”
The next moment, a strong spiritual pressure enveloped Rong Yi, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Pian s.h.i.+ wanted to save Rong Yi, but as he moved his arm, he immediately got suppressed by the spiritual pressure and could not move a bit.
Qi Lan raised his hand to suck Rong Yi’s body over to his side, squeezed his throat, saying with a cold voice, “This time it’s my turn to ask you, feeling awful?”
Rong Yi gave him a hard look and curved his lips.
“Still can smile? Huh? It seems that I am not using enough strength.” Qi Lan’s eyes sank, as he increased the strength. If he added a bit more strength, Rong Yi’s neck would be broken.
Xinyue took out of a pile of scarves she and Qi Lan usually used, sneering, “After we cover his face with those scarves, I guess he could no longer laugh out.”
As he thought that how Rong Yi covered her master’s face with one after another piece of wet white cloth, her hatred toward Rong Yi reached its limit.
Rong Yi breathed harder and harder, while the smile on his face grew bigger and bigger. He raised a hand and pointed above their heads.
As Qi Lan and others looked up, they saw a large piece of yellow cloth about 15 meter long painted with a formation flying over their heads, and the patterns on the formation were very strange. It was some kind of rectangular formation they had never seen before.
The others were all startled, “Aren’t all formations supposed to be round? What kind of formation is this?”
Xinyue was scared, “Is it another kind of formation that could trap us?”
Immediately, the yellow cloth flashed purple light, and inside the formation flashed golden light.
Elder the First said, “It is a level nine medium-sized formation.”
“Level nine?” Other cultivators exclaimed, “Why does a level nine formation appear here? Why only in our land?”
Qi Lam looked down at Rong Yi, “It seems that I can’t torture you slowly, or I will give you the opportunity to fight back.”
Rong Yi looked at him with a calm smile. Suddenly there was buzzing sound, and out of his cloak came a swarm of bugs, dense and numerous.
They hit Qi Lan’s arms with the fastest speed.
Feeling the huge pains, Qi Lan quickly released Rong Yi, aware of the high cultivation of those bugs, like at the Mahayana phase, quickly jumped quite a few meters away.
Rong Yi’s legs turned into jelly, and he collapsed onto the ground, heavily coughing, and breathing hard, pointing at Qi Lan while saying, “Let them see what you are capable of.”
Those bugs excitedly rushed to Qi Lan, the elders and others.
Qi Lan and others quickly used the defense seal, however, there were too many of them, and their cultivation was mostly above Mahayana, so only a move, those bug had made a crack on their defending seal.
“Rong yi, you have so many Mahayana evil beasts working for you.” Qi Lan and Rong Yi had been fighting for so long, this was the first time he expressed his admiration to Rong Yi. One should know that most of the evil beast race regarded human race as the enemy and could never become the evil pets of human, or fighting for the human race, but Rong Yi suddenly released so many Mahayana beasts at a time, which was really impressive.
Rong Yi gasped while laughing softly.
If he told him that those evil beasts were mostly only at the Intelligence phase, he guessed Qi Lan would get mad.
