Chapter 902: All Down
Cang Lie didn't seem to understand Ye Xiaoman's implication. He said, "I'm more familiar with this place than you."
"Let's go."
Twenty demons lined up behind Ye Xiaoman, forcing her to move forward in a threatening manner.
Both the eldest sister and the eldest brother were a little uneasy.
The audience watching the live broadcast began to worry about the personal safety of the three human monks.
【On the oppressive power of 20 tall and strong demons.】
[I have a feeling the next development will be something like this: the human cultivators and the demon cultivators work together to set a trap, but the human cultivators discover the trap was set for them, and all of them are eliminated under the siege of the demons.]
[I remember the mortal monk sent a message a few days ago to notify his teammates to come over. Why haven't they come yet?]
[The message was sent, but my teammates couldn't find the teleportation array's address, so they had to slowly rush over by flying on their swords. They're still on the way. Tell me if it's a coincidence or not.]
Only Ye Xiaoman remained calm, as if an honest person was used to trusting the people around him and was not aware of the crisis at all.
"Let's take off."
Ye Xiaoman summoned the nameless sword and flew forward along the route designated by the demons.
She cooperated so well and went to her death. The demons exchanged malicious glances and followed Ye Xiaoman with determination.
A hundred miles ahead, there was indeed a large oasis as Cang Lie had said.
Cang Lie gave the order again, "Next, set up the hunting formation."
Cang Lie assigned tasks to everyone present. Some went to dig traps and trenches for ambushes, some to bury formation stones, and some to draw talismans and set up formations...
Cang Lie's arrangement was reasonable. In order to prevent Ye Xiaoman from finding out that they were planning to plot against her, the demons worked very hard to create a real atmosphere of hunting monsters.
Even the audience who originally suspected that the demons were up to something began to believe it.
As a result of the demons' hard work, with about half an hour left before today's live broadcast, all the hunting equipment has been completed. The next step is to wait for the beasts to fall into the trap.
The demons were thirsty and tired, and surrounded Ye Xiaoman to ask for the fasting pills.
Ye Xiaoman naturally gave it to her. Considering that Ye Xiaoman had not poisoned the pills time and time again before, the demons took her fasting pills and drank them in one gulp.
According to the plan, Cang Lie said to Ye Xiaoman, "Regarding the hunting of the Taowu beast, there are some details I want to discuss with you alone."
After saying this, without giving Ye Xiaoman a chance to refuse, he walked forward with his head held high.
Ye Xiaoman seemed unsuspecting and followed him away.
The eldest brother and the eldest sister squatted by the lake, discussing whether the lake water could be drunk, and seemed unaware that Ye Xiaoman had been led away by Cang Lie.
The demon cultivators watched as Cang Lie successfully took Ye Xiaoman away. They felt that they had completed their mission in the demon cave, so they relaxed and lay down in the dug trench to rest.
"We have been relying on the pills provided by Ye Xiaoman to get by these days."
A demon brought up the topic and sneered disdainfully, "Ye Xiaoman is just a fool."
Other demons also joined in mocking Ye Xiaoman.
"I also saw her deliberately leaving the high-quality pills for us and sitting aside to eat the inferior pills."
"It's so funny. Does she think we will be moved by doing this? Don't be so naive."
"Yeah, after just a few days of getting along, he treated us like friends and started opening up to us. He really treated us like fools."
The demons all laughed with glee when they thought of Ye Xiaoman's future fate.
"The fate of a foolish eagle is to be eaten."
[Uh uh uh, I also think Ye Xiaoman is quite brainless.]
Kindness also needs to have an edge, rather than being kind to others wholeheartedly and being treated as a fool.
The audience immediately started a war of words over the question of "whether Ye Xiaoman's behavior is stupid". Before the debate could get to the bottom of it, the demons who had just been mocking Ye Xiaoman changed their expressions, turned purple, and started vomiting blood.
"Ye Xiaoman actually poisoned the pill!"
The demons were furious. They changed their previous mockery of Ye Xiaoman and loudly condemned her for her lack of martial ethics.
"Despicable and shameless Ye Xiaoman, it's a shame we didn't have even a shred of suspicion towards her!"
"Where is the trust between humans and demons, and where is the bottom line?"
"You know what? The poison pill is colorless and odorless, and it even has a delayed onset treatment. It successfully hid it from us poison masters. It must be quite skillful in its refinement."
The elixir was refined by Xiao Chujing. With his ruthless style, the demons didn't have time to curse Ye Xiaoman after the poison took effect. The poison directly invaded their hearts and they lost consciousness one by one.
The eldest sister and eldest brother walked over from a distance, holding magic lamps, and stood on the trench. They waited coldly until the demons lost their ability to resist, then jumped into the pit and plundered the spoils from the demon cultivators.
"Junior sister, you have a good plan," said the eldest brother with a smile, "First, pretend to cooperate with the demons, use them to find the beasts, and then catch them all in one fell swoop."
"A bunch of idiots." The eldest sister fiercely kicked a demon at her feet, turning it over. "Why should we share the beast herd and the Taowu beast with you? Can't we keep them for ourselves?"
The two took away the beast cores that the demons had fought so hard for many days, and then crushed the teleportation talisman to eliminate them all.
"Now we have points again."
The eldest brother and eldest sister laughed together, a villain laugh that was unique to Ye Xiaoman: "Hehehe——"
The audience was so shocked by this sudden reversal that they forgot to quarrel.
Kindness needs to have an edge, but this edge is too sharp.
[This definitely wasn't Manbao's idea. She's a good girl who always says sorry when she steps on someone's foot!]
Everyone couldn't wait to follow the camera and cut to the secret conversation between Cang Lie and Ye Xiaoman.
Before, everyone thought that Ye Xiaoman would be plotted against by Cang Lie, but now everyone sympathizes with Cang Lie.
Cang Lie led Ye Xiaoman to a ruin in the desert.
This seems to be a residential area from some ancient period. Now it is covered by yellow sand. Only some broken roof tips poke through the sand layer and are stepped on by people. There are also some huge rocks scattered around, which have been carved into various strange shapes by wind and sand.
Ye Xiaoman stood under a large stone that looked like a pyramid, stroking the texture on it with her fingers, and walked around the stone pillar. The shadows between the boulders swallowed her body.
Cang Lie stood far away under another stalagmite. He rushed to this place as soon as he came in. A few days ago, the elder of the Demon Cave took advantage of the evening visit to set up a powerful teleportation array.
Cang Lie stepped firmly on the center of the formation.
The array stone has been infused with a powerful driving force. As long as he crushes the teleportation order in his palm, he can send Ye Xiaoman away.
Cang Lie was full of confidence, and Ye Xiaoman was also confident of winning.
Ye Xiaoman certainly anticipated that Canglie had lured her here to plot against her, but her fighting power was superior to Canglie's. Whether it was formations or talismans, she crushed him completely and felt that she had nothing to worry about.
