Chapter 641: It is Still Better to Outsmart
This old show off. If it wasn’t Ye Qianhe, who else would it be?
“Ye Qianhe. It really is him.” Even if the person before her were to turn to ashes, borrowing Young Master Zhen Ye’s phrasing, Ling Chuxi would also recognize him. It was precisely the same Ye Qianhe who had chased Ling Chuxi for thousands of miles.
Ling Chuxi once saw how Ye Qianhe was sent flying with just a slap by Mo Kongyuan, so she knew that what Xie Wuji said was right. If it were not for the guardians being poisoned, if any of them faced Ye Qianhe alone, any one of them could easily squish him to death easier than an ant.
This fellow had really big guts to actually dare to provoke four guardians at one go. Did he really not know how to write the word ‘die’? Ling Chuxi was a little admirable of how Ye Qianhe was so adamant on not wanting his life. However, after taking a few more looks, she realized something.
Not far behind Ye Qianhe stood Qiu Gaohe and a few other old men of the clan looking on fiercely, supporting Ye Qianhe.
Ye Qianhe and the Qiu family were experts in using poison, and the two of them already had cultivation in the realm of True Essence, The cultivations of the other people around them were not weak either. As for Xie Wuji’s and the rest of the guardians, they had been severely injured by the poison and were not even able to display half the prowess of their cultivation. It was no wonder why Ye Qianhe was so confident.
“Oldie Xie, your cultivation is just so so. Yet, you actually have the face to be a guardian. If you have the ability, then come at me again!” said Ye Qianhe loudly with spittle flying all around as he acted all proud like a villain getting his way.
“Come on then, I will help the Heavenly Star Sect weed out bad seeds like you,” scolded Xie Wuji as his tall and big figure once again rushed over in an attack.
“Slow down. Brother Xie, let me clean him up. You can take a break first,” said Lin Cangbo as he stepped forward and stood before Xie Wuji, secretly giving him a meaningful look.
“All right, then I shall leave this to you, Brother Lin,” Xie Wuji forcefully withheld his anger and took a few steps backwards before sitting down crosslegged and circulating the True Qi within his body to suppress his poisoning.
“You say that I am shameless. How could it be that the four of you great guardians are not shameless yourselves? Four against one and to actually even use the rotation method battle style,” sneered Ye Qianhe in disdain. Then he said to Qiu Gaohe, “Brother Qiu, I shall leave this battle to you.”
Qiu Gaohe then went forward, replacing Ye Qianhe.
Qiu Gaohe and Lin Cangbo exchanged a few blows, and both respectively took a few steps backwards. After that, Ye Qianhe took a medicinal pill and recovered for a bit before going forward to battle with Mister Cao who had just gotten up to take his turn.
The two groups of people continued to battle it out against each other using a rotation method. One after the other, without stopping for even a while.
Ling Chuxi understood that although it was a rotation battle, since the four guardians were stuck in the little mountain valley without eating or drinking and were even injured from the poison, their situation was looking less and less optimistic.
As for Qiu Gaohe’s party, although there were only two experts in the realm of True Essence, they had plenty of replenishment pills and in this inversely proportional situation, they had the absolute advantage. If things continued dragging out like this, it was fearful that it would not be long before Xie Wuji and the rest of the guardians would be dragged to death by this poisonous group.
Ling Chuxi naturally was not willing for Qiu Gaohe and Ye Qianhe’s plans to succeed. The life and death of Xie Wuji’s group of four guardians was directly related to the safety of the countries they protected and indirectly related to the survival and destruction of Nan Xia Country at the same time. Even if Ding Lin Country had those with strong cultivation on their side, they would not dare to outrageously try and conquer Nan Xia thanks to the support of these guardians. It was also precisely the real reason why Chu Fengyun left Qiu Gaohe and used some unknown means to invite Ye Qianhe over to make a move and deal with them.
However, Ling Chuxi had just been promoted to the realm of True Essence not long ago and she could deal with only Ye Qianhe at most. If Qiu Gaohe was added into the mix, she truly did not have much confidence she’d be able to take them on.
After contemplating the matter in detail, she concluded that fighting hard directly against them was truly not wise. It was still better to use their own methods against them.
However, making a move this time would fearfully not be as easy as the last time.
