Chapter 283 In-laws' Sect?
"Tch, my wife is staying at their place, isn't forming an alliance obvious?" Ji Xuan said with a mocking expression.
"That's right, I'll go wherever my wife is!" Shi Yi's undisguised answer forced everyone to swallow a mouthful of dog food, and they all rolled their eyes at him.
Shi Yi moved closer to Du Jiaoxi, grinning sheepishly, and said, "Xiaoxi, I'll protect you later!"
"Get lost, don't get so close, the smell of blood on you is making me feel nauseous!" Du Jiaoxi waved her hand dismissively, covering her mouth and nose as if she was vomiting.
Shi Yi said with a wronged expression, "Hey, am I that smelly...?"
Du Jiaoxi seemed too lazy to pay attention to him, clutching her chest as she walked towards a less crowded area. Shi Yi noticed that her face was pale, and it seemed that she had really been affected by his breath, so he followed her worriedly.
"Hey, you're quite considerate." Ji Xuan rolled her eyes, glanced at Yu Xuan beside her, and asked, "You probably don't need to ask anymore, right?"
That public kiss that day shocked many people, including her.
Yu Xuan smiled and said, "Of course, and this is the safest way. I hope you can also form an alliance. If you are united and help each other, everyone's safety can be guaranteed."
Ji Xuan twirled a strand of hair between her fingers, her face full of teasing, and said, "Oh dear, you're all from related sects by marriage now. We, the outsiders from the Huan Yin Sect, can only hitch a ride. But let's make one thing clear: don't take advantage of your numbers to bully us!"
Ye Luo looked at her and smiled, "Don't worry, I can't cheat you. We're all family anyway."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt the earth shake violently, and then he heard a mournful, shrill roar: "You wretched humans, how dare you harm my child!"
Ye Luo was immediately alarmed. He activated the array plate in his hand to reinforce the defensive barrier and said seriously, "This oppressive aura... could it be a ninth-tier demon beast?"
After sensing for a moment, Nan Muyin said, "It's close to the tenth level. Everyone needs to be careful!"
At that moment, the distant magma was as hot as a raging fire, churning violently as if it were alive.
Suddenly, a huge python's tail rose high, bringing with it intense heat as it lashed out. The golden protective shield rippled in concentric circles under the force of the impact.
"My God, how big is that!" Shi Li stared at the scene in astonishment, his voice filled with disbelief.
"Brother, this guy, this... this must be the ancestor of snakes, right?"
Shi Yi said, "Aren't the monsters in this secret realm our ancestors?"
The python's massive tail, unable to strike, seemed to become even more agitated after being blocked by the magic array.
It roared and swung its huge snake tail again to attack, seemingly venting its rage, but fortunately it was all blocked by the magic circle.
Seeing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
They looked at Ye Luo with admiration in their eyes. They never expected that he could set up such a solid magic array all by himself.
Seeing that it couldn't break through this side, it turned its attention to the Tianfeng Sect, raising its giant tail and sweeping it horizontally, startling them into a flurry of activity.
Ye Luo quickly repaired the cracks in the magic array, gaining some breathing room. He took a deep breath and said, "We need to figure out a way to leave here as soon as possible; this can't go on."
But no sooner had he finished speaking than a gasp of surprise came from the Tianfeng Sect.
It turned out that under the continuous slapping of the giant tail, their magic array began to crack. The Tianfeng Sect disciples inside the array turned pale and cried out in trembling voices, "Quickly, quickly reinforce the magic array!"
One of the disciples shouted in a panic, "It's cracked! Repair it quickly! Aren't you array cultivators?!"
Another disciple hurriedly added, "That's right, the formation you guys set up is actually so easily defeated."
At this moment, a female disciple who was setting up the formation, covered in sweat, angrily questioned, "Stop talking nonsense! If you're so capable, why don't you go out and kill some monsters? What are you doing hiding here?!"
"Focus, don't get distracted!"
At this moment, one of the disciples who set up the formation reminded them, but it was already too late.
Taking advantage of the lull in their argument, the giant tail struck the weakest point, instantly shattering the barely maintained defensive array. The disciples hidden inside scattered like birds and beasts, using every trick in the book to escape in all directions.
"Aaaaaah—!"
"Help! Let me go..." Several fleeing Tianfeng Sect disciples were being entangled by the demonic flame python lurking nearby. Some disciples were being dragged down into the lava, and some were being swallowed by the gaping maws. The scene was cruel and chaotic.
A female disciple of the Illusionary Sound Sect, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, looked unable to bear to look at her, and shrank her originally slender body into the crowd.
Nan Muyin summoned her sword and said in a deep voice, "Third Junior Sister, come with me to save them!"
"Alright!" Yu Qianling summoned a long spear and quickly followed, coordinating with Nan Muyin's sword moves to rescue the Tianfeng Sect disciples who had been attacked.
Ye Luo then manipulated the rotating array plate and said in a deep voice to the Tianfeng Sect disciples outside: "Those who want to live, come in yourself!"
Upon hearing this, the people who were closer to the formation disregarded everything else and scrambled towards it. The others inside the formation quickly went out to meet them.
A short while later, most of the Tianfeng Sect disciples hid inside the magic array set up by Ye Luo, except for Bai Ruoqian and Su Yuyuan.
Bai Ruoqian, wielding a defensive magic weapon, slashed down several attacking fire pythons with her sword, displaying an attitude of 'preferring death to surrender'.
That look amused Ye Luo. "As expected of a favored daughter of heaven, she really does not follow the usual path."
Bai Ruoqian stared at him with cold eyes, her face full of sinister intent. "You scoundrel! Do you think everyone will fall for your tricks? These are nothing but petty schemes to win people over!"
"So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?" Ye Luo laughed. "Even if it was a trick, at least I protected someone's life. And what about you? What did you do? It seems you're not even as good as a despicable person like me."
"you--!"
"Shut up!" Yang Shen, having just rescued one of his disciples, stepped forward and bowed apologetically to Ye Luo, "Thank you..."
"It's nothing, just something I did on the spur of the moment." Ye Luo waved his hand dismissively and grinned, "If you want to give me some spirit stones as a token of your gratitude, I certainly won't refuse."
"..."
"Alright, then I'll naturally offer it to you when we go out later." After saying that, Yang Shen turned to Bai Ruoqian and Su Yuyuan outside the formation and said sternly, "You two, stop fooling around. This is a matter of life and death. Come over here quickly!"
Seeing her isolated situation, Bai Ruoqian was filled with anger and resentment. She gritted her teeth and roared, "Even if I die, I'll die out here!"
