Chapter 1158 Sister, please be gentle
Although everyone knew that Manshurou had just been injured in an ambush, no one expected that when she, a Mahayana-stage Higanbana, chose her opponent, she was referring to the Higanbana in the Fusion-stage.
Although there is no life-and-death agreement in this fight, if you lose, you may get injured or even be killed accidentally.
It is indeed much safer for her to choose an opponent in the fusion stage. It is basically a sure win and her own safety will not be affected.
But the problem is, she picked the opponent in the Fusion Stage, so wouldn't the remaining girl in the Fusion Stage have to fight against the Mahayana? This is a sure loss!
This is a decision that seems greedy, cowardly and extremely selfish, and is despised by others.
But for the Higanbana tribe, who had suffered a big defeat, this was a huge blessing.
Because what Hechuan Heng promised just now was that the three people had to defeat all three opponents they picked. It was impossible for the girl in the fusion period to win against the Mahayana, but the injured Mahayana might not lose to the remaining Mahayana.
So considering it from this aspect, her choice of the group in the combined period is very beneficial for them since they have already lost a big game.
At this time, apart from the exclamations, everyone else just whispered to each other, and no one stood up to object. While discussing, they also stared at He Chuan Heng, who initiated this battle, to see how he would make a decision.
Since this is not a regular choice, he can refuse it, but the previous rules did not say that he must choose a specific one, so it is not impossible to accept the default.
He Chuanheng hesitated for a long time, so long that everyone stopped talking and waited for him to speak.
You can see he is struggling inside. Morality tells him that he can't do this as it would be an unfair victory, but if they lose all three games it would be too much of a blow to them.
Finally, under the gazes of most of the red spider lilies, He Chuan Heng sighed.
"Since you have been chosen, go fight her."
The decision was made, and the originally silent circle of red spider lilies suddenly shouted excitedly, as if they were celebrating their victory in advance.
Although Manshurou was injured, she was a Mahayana after all, so it didn't take much effort for her to defeat three opponents in the fusion stage.
She even wondered if she would not necessarily lose if she fought against an opponent in the Mahayana stage?
Although she was injured and was a useless person, she was only a useless person among the red spider lily clan in the demon world, a useless person who emerged from such a painful and fierce competition. Compared with these red spider lilies that grew up in a comfortable environment, she felt that she was not so weak after all.
When Man Shurou finished the battle and walked back to Shen Lixian and the others, she had been struggling with this problem until Ye Linglong patted her on the shoulder.
"If you want to give it a try, there will be plenty of opportunities when you stay. I'm sorry to have to put up with you this time for the sake of a successful plan."
Manshurou raised her head in surprise. She didn't expect Ye Linglong to comfort her, and such comfort was quite helpful.
In the past, if it were her elder sister, she would just scold her for being a waste, and lock her up in that small courtyard in the forest, trap her in a formation, and force her to practice day and night.
"For the sake of victory, for the sake of the other weak red spider lilies in the demon race, and for myself, I will not be wronged."
There is really nothing to feel wronged about. Although those red spider lilies in the underworld thought that she made this choice because she was greedy and afraid of death, in fact, she made this choice for the sake of complete victory.
Because among the three of them, she is undoubtedly the one at the bottom in terms of strength.
Manshurou won all the games easily, but the other flowers did not feel disappointed at all. Instead, they were eagerly waiting for the last game to begin.
Having won two games, they were bound to lose in the combined battle against Mahayana.
When Ye Linglong walked to the middle, the red spider lilies cheered and looked at her with sympathy.
After Ye Linglong randomly picked an opponent, He Chuanheng couldn't help but remind him.
"Stop it, don't kill anyone."
"Got it. I won't bully the weak."
After saying this, the red spider lily smiled and took out its weapon, a black whip stained with the aura of the Forgotten River.
"Little girl, if you admit defeat now, I won't hit you anymore."
Ye Linglong smiled slightly and took out the Red Beauty. The red mist lingered on the sword, dazzling.
"How do you know you will lose if you don't fight? Sister, just be gentle."
After just two simple sentences, the two men quickly rushed towards each other, starting a battle that seemed to have no suspense.
However, after the first move, the smiles on the Higanbana's faces faded a little, and after the second move they could no longer smile. By the third move they had already begun to frown, and when the fourth move began, they fell into a state of nervous watching.
"What's going on? Isn't she just in the fusion stage? How can she be so powerful?"
"I don't know. Her fighting style is so fierce. Every move is extremely fierce, but the next move is even more fierce than the previous one. Not only is it fierce, but it is also fast. Her sword moves are too powerful!"
"Why do I feel that the situation is not good?"
"I think we didn't gain any advantage from the beginning. We have been suppressed by that girl in the fusion stage. If we continue like this, we will lose!"
"Strange, those two just now looked like monsters, but why does this one look like a human?"
"Now is not the time to focus on this. I am so anxious. Can I win? My cultivation level is a whole realm higher!"
As the red spider lilies were eagerly waiting and Man Shurou and Shen Lixian were calmly waiting, Ye Linglong won the first match.
The screams of surprise from the red spider lilies were endless. They could hardly believe their eyes and kept discussing how they could lose and how it was possible to lose!
Seeing their incredulous expressions, Man Shurou couldn't help but laugh.
Finally, someone shared the same feeling as she did when she watched Ye Linglong fight against her elder sister.
How can you not lose?
As long as Ye Linglong wasn't killed in the first move, she might have been able to make a comeback. What's more, the first move of Higanbana was suppressed by Ye Linglong, so she was bound to lose.
The whole place erupted in unprecedented discussion, the noise was loud, and there was a lot of excited emotion, like a pot of boiling water, gurgling non-stop.
Manshu admired their excitement with great interest and couldn't help enjoying this lively and harmonious atmosphere. Although they lost, they didn't have much hostility in them, but more regret and tension.
This seemed to be the normal atmosphere in the arena of a large clan, unlike the Higanbana clan in the demon world, where if they lost they would face all kinds of more terrifying training and punishments, as if the sky was falling.
Maybe that would help her improve herself faster, but she prefers to blend in with the crowd, to be an ordinary red spider lily, to sigh with everyone, to feel sorry for everyone, and to shout as she pleases.
Shen Lixian on the side did not look at the red spider lilies. His eyes were always on Ye Linglong. The corners of his mouth slightly raised to reveal a very gentle smile. The little junior sister was still as fierce as ever.
