Chapter 768: A Scheme Within a Scheme 2
Ye Fei narrowed her eyes dangerously, her waist bending limply to avoid the thorny hand. With a slight movement of her sleeve, a poisoned arrow flew out from her hidden sleeve!
Thorn dodged three arrows in quick succession, a strange glint flashing in his eyes. He turned and launched a series of attacks at Li Yuan.
Upon seeing this, Bai immediately unleashed his spiritual energy, his weapon and spiritual energy working together like chains to suppress the thorns, preventing them from retaliating!
Li Yuan's eyes were dark. He clenched his fist and the Evil Dragon Bone Scythe was in his hand.
With a swing of his Evil Dragon Bone Scythe, an aura of majesty and terror surged toward the thorns like a tide.
Thorn's expression changed, and he pushed his footwork to its limit, but he couldn't break free from the airflow that had locked him in from behind.
He gritted his teeth, formed a hand seal, and a black aura that appeared from nowhere spread out.
In just a few seconds, Ye Fei, Li Yuan, and Jiang Bai were all enveloped in this black aura, as if they were trapped in a hazy mist.
Knowing that Li Yuan was right beside her, Ye Fei held his hand tightly and wouldn't let go.
"Your Excellency!"
From within the eerie black mist came Bai's anxious shouts. Li Yuan stared at everything before him, unmoved, only raising his sword-like eyebrows and shouting sharply, "What's the panic!"
Only after receiving a response from his master did Bai's wildly beating heart gradually calm down.
Ye Fei secretly activated her wood-elemental spiritual energy to manipulate the nearby plants, but unexpectedly, the plants withered and decayed instantly as soon as they approached the black aura.
"Stop struggling, you poor thing."
"You're in the shadows, I'm in the light! This situation is most advantageous to me. Guess what... you'll encounter here?"
Arrogant words echoed in the air. Ye Fei sneered coldly. How dare a tiny wisp of black energy with corrosive power flaunt itself in front of her?
She deftly took a small bottle from her sleeve and threw it into the air, striking the bottle with her spiritual energy. The moment the bottle exploded, golden powder scattered and merged into the air!
In that instant, the golden powder eerily devoured the black mist in the air.
Li Yuan raised an eyebrow. What is this? It actually possesses the power to dispel thorny sorcery?
Ye Fei secretly slipped a pill to Li Yuan, gesturing for him to take it.
Li Yuan immediately understood—this was the poison concocted by Fei'er!
Without hesitation, he swallowed the pill. Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a red light approaching from behind Ye Fei!
The red light attack was so fast that it was almost impossible for anyone on horseback to react. Li Yuan held Ye Fei tightly in his arms, raised his other hand, and an invisible force rose and brewed in his palm, firmly restraining the red light from advancing.
Ye Fei's eyes turned cold. That treacherous guy, Jing Ji, had launched another sneak attack.
However, the red light that had been restrained by Li Yuan suddenly surged and exploded with a bang, flying everywhere like scattered fragments.
With a swing of the Blood Dragon Bone Scythe, a fierce wind arose, and Li Yuan repelled the flying red light fragments. However, there were simply too many of these red light fragments, and some of them even tore his sleeves, from which faint blood could be seen spreading.
Seeing this, Thorn, hiding in the shadows, coldly curled the corners of her lips.
Well then, tonight's goal has been achieved.
There's no need to continue entangled with Li Yuan.
As soon as he withdrew his hand, the fragments of red light were sucked back by a powerful suction force.
Thorn lowered his eyes, gazing at a strand of Ye Fei's hair in his hand and a drop of Li Yuan's blood, a dark light flashing in his crimson eyes.
He turned around and leaped into the torn space.
Ye Fei immediately shielded Li Yuan behind her, veins bulging on her forehead, a bad premonition rising in her heart.
Thorn just came to fight them and then ran away?
This isn't like him at all.
Is it because they've already achieved a certain goal, so they're no longer willing to fight?
