Chapter 12 Reluctant Cooperation



So that explains why they reappeared here after several months.

However, upon hearing these words, Lin Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes, seemingly guessing what the Blood Hand Illusion Demon wanted to say next. His expression darkened, and he fell silent.

Sure enough, Ma He glanced at him, his expression turning playful again, and said calmly:

“Now, it seems that the green-faced Taoist has given up searching for your whereabouts. Several times I have sensed his aura approaching... and I cannot completely shake off the two people behind me. Once the green-faced Taoist catches up, I will be doomed.”

Lin Xiuyuan's expression grew increasingly gloomy, and he said indifferently, "Then why aren't you hurrying to escape? What are you wasting time here for?"

"Hehe, why do you ask when you already know the answer? Then let me be even clearer!"

Ma He sneered and said with a playful tone, "It's difficult for me alone to deal with the two behind him. The only way out now is for you and me to join forces and kill those two Flying Rainbow Sect disciples in one fell swoop! You stay in the shadows while I stay in the open. If we suddenly attack from the shadows, we should be able to take them down without much trouble."

"We are both being hunted down by the Flying Rainbow Sect. Why don't we join forces and fight our way out, shall we?"

“Only in this way can we break the deadlock. Otherwise, if we keep them hanging on, that green-faced Taoist will come after me sooner or later. Either way, we'll be doomed. Why don't I drag you down with me? When the time comes, I'll lead the green-faced Taoist to you, and then no one will be able to escape.”

"Perhaps the green-faced Taoist's attention will be entirely on you, and I can use that as an opportunity to escape. So, fellow Daoist, you have no choice but to help me right now! Sharing happiness is worse than enjoying it alone, right? Hehe."

Lin Xiuyuan's expression turned completely gloomy, and his gaze fell on Ma He, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes.

Seeing this, Ma He calmly said, "Although I was pursued and killed along the way, and suffered considerable injuries, I did manage to block your killing intent..."

The conversation suddenly stopped there.

Then, in Lin Xiuyuan's eyes, the figure of the Blood Hand Illusion Demon suddenly rippled, and then shattered, turning into specks of black spiritual light and dissipating.

Lin Xiuyuan's pupils contracted, and he turned his head sharply. Another Blood Hand Illusion Demon appeared a few feet away.

“But it was easy,” Ma He said with a slight smile, finishing his last words.

Lin Xiuyuan's expression became somewhat uncertain; the other party's actions were clearly intended to intimidate him.

Clearly, they succeeded!

Originally, Lin Xiuyuan thought that he could take advantage of the weakened state of the Blood Hand Illusion Demon and kill him in one fell swoop.

But seeing what the other party had revealed, Lin Xiuyuan wisely abandoned the idea.

Although his divine sense was powerful, he could only vaguely sense some abnormalities, but he could not see through the opponent's illusion.

After all, there is a difference in cultivation level between the two. Even if the opponent is weak, it would be difficult for him to kill him despite the difference in cultivation level, let alone the fact that the opponent's methods are so strange!

The other party remained on guard, wary of him making a move, making it virtually impossible for him to achieve his objective!

In comparison, it would be easier to coordinate with the enemy to ambush and kill those two...

At that moment, Lin Xiuyuan had no choice but to nod silently and agree.

Now that the other party has been able to see through his hidden technique and grasp this point, he has no choice but to agree.

Otherwise, if the other party had attracted the Green-Faced Taoist, he would have had absolutely no chance of survival, as he didn't have any earth magic talismans to help him escape underground.

Lin Xiuyuan couldn't help but ask, "How exactly did you discover my whereabouts, fellow Daoist?"

He felt uneasy until he found out the truth.

This is his most relied-upon method of concealment. If there is any flaw, and he doesn't pay attention and be vigilant, he will surely fall victim to it in the future.

When Ma He saw that Lin Xiuyuan had agreed to cooperate, he simply told him about it. Anyway, it wasn't some profound or magical method, so it didn't matter.

"Hehe, fellow Daoist, there's no need to worry. It's just that I'm skilled in illusion techniques and have a strong divine sense, so I have some unique methods for detecting concealment."

"If you cultivate some divine sense technique in the future and become stronger, I will have difficulty detecting it if the difference in cultivation levels is not significant."

Hearing this, Lin Xiuyuan breathed a slight sigh of relief, as long as it wasn't a major flaw.

Then, Lin Xiuyuan said calmly, "Very good. There is one last thing. If you agree, I will cooperate with you to ambush those two Flying Rainbow Sect disciples."

Ma He frowned, glanced at Lin Xiuyuan indifferently, and said, "Tell me about it."

"I don't possess any profound escape techniques, which is why I was somewhat envious of your extremely fast escape method earlier. After all, you threatened me to take action, so it wouldn't be right not to offer some compensation, would it?"

Immediately afterwards, Lin Xiuyuan smiled knowingly and threatened, "If you're not afraid that I won't cooperate fully later, then let's not talk about this anymore."

Ma He's expression immediately became extremely uncertain as he coldly stared at Lin Xiuyuan.

These words immediately ignited the suspicion and unease in his heart!

This was also what worried him the most, since the two of them did not have a normal cooperative relationship to begin with.

If the opponent holds back during the battle and then turns around and sabotages him, wouldn't he be doomed?

But it's unclear whether this was Lin Xiuyuan's deliberate attempt to create a diversion, throwing out bait to lure him in so he could easily trap him later.
