A perfectly valid reason.
Yan Xiao didn't doubt it after hearing it. Instead, he teased Luo Qinghe with amusement, "Look, this girl is much smarter than your little beauty."
"You don't need to meddle in other people's business."
Luo Qinghe glanced at him coldly, then turned to look at Tu Nian, "I have a gentleman's agreement with you. Give me the token, and I promise that before I send you back to the snow, I will not only not attack you, but also ensure your safety."
"What's the relationship between Jixue and Yuqing? Do you think everyone else knows? And what about a 'gentleman's agreement'?" Liu Yuzhi sneered. "This girl eliminated your beloved junior sister. Now that she's got the token, can you let her go?"
"you……"
Luo Qinghe was a man who couldn't really talk. A few words like that would leave him speechless. Liu Yuzhi didn't care about his underdeveloped language skills, so she changed the subject and tried to win over Tu Nian.
"Just follow your sister, little girl. The agreement between women is much more reliable than the nonsense of those stinky men."
Listening to their bickering, Tu Nian had a conflicted look on his face, but in fact he was already very happy in his heart.
This is a good relationship, it even involves gender opposition. Fight for it, and argue a few more times to save her from being perfunctory.
The audience outside the venue has almost understood Tu Nian's intention by now.
Seeing that each team's home was about to be robbed and several Yuanying were still arguing incessantly, those spectators who supported the high-tech game were all in tears.
How come you guys are so cool and aloof on weekdays, but become so chatty at the crucial moment? Stop chatting, you're falling for my trick!
Here we come!
After waiting for ages, the Jindan contestants finally arrived. Tu Nian's spirits lifted, and he said to them, "If we want to negotiate, you should at least show some sincerity. With the four of you Yuanying standing in front of me, I'm under a lot of pressure. So, you guys should step aside and let them talk to me."
What to talk about?
The Jindan players who were called out for no reason looked at each other in confusion.
"Is this necessary?"
Without waiting for others to express their opinions, Luo Qinghe was the first to raise an objection, "Besides, if you arrange it this way, wouldn't that be equivalent to excluding me?"
"A sense of security is, of course, necessary."
Tu Nian blinked, "You can talk to me over there. There are so many of you. Are you afraid that I will run away?"
Yan Xiao fanned the flames, "I don't think he's sincere, so let's just exclude him. Anyway, I'll withdraw as a sign of respect."
"Same."
Liu Yuzhi smiled and retreated, followed by Duan Linsheng. The three Nascent Souls now formed a united front, leaving only Luo Qinghe standing in front of Tu Nian. The Jindan players, who had figured out the situation in their Nascent Souls, came over one by one.
"Hey, here they come." Seeing those golden elixirs approaching the trap circle on the tree, Song Chengming couldn't help but said excitedly.
"Why is Luo Qinghe still there?" Chu Qiurong frowned. If Luo Qinghe still didn't leave when the Golden Cores arrived, all their efforts would be wasted.
Tu Nian was obviously well aware of this. Seeing that Luo Qinghe was still hesitant and his golden elixir was about to arrive, she had no choice but to raise the token and threaten Luo Qinghe, saying, "If you don't back down, we can't discuss this matter anymore."
"No, I'll retreat!" Luo Qinghe subconsciously stopped her, gritted his teeth and took two steps back, just in time to meet the Jindan player from other teams who came forward and brushed past him, leaving a complaint in his ear.
"What does she have to discuss with us? She even insisted on separating us from our senior brother. Talking about a sense of security with such a small distance? Isn't that unnecessary?"
separate?
Luo Qinghe was stunned, his mind went blank, and then he turned around abruptly, but the situation was out of control in the blink of an eye.
"What are you doing? Don't run!"
"Leave the token behind!"
Just as Luo Qinghe took two steps back and the Jindan contestants had just arrived, Tu Nian, who had been well-behaved, suddenly became possessed and rushed out on his sword regardless of anything. Of course, these contestants could not sit idly by. In shock, they all chased after him at full speed.
"Is this kid crazy?"
The assassin style of the Yanyu Pavilion determined that their reaction was always beyond that of other cultivators. Liu Yuzhi's reaction was even faster than those Jindan who were closer to Tu Nian. Before she finished speaking, she had already rushed forward with a dagger in hand.
It’s not that she doesn’t believe in the strength of her teammates, but victory or defeat is always the most foolproof when it is in her own hands.
"He's a complete speculator."
Yan Xiao's reaction was not slow either. He was only three or five steps behind him while complaining. Duan Linsheng was still at the bottom. There was no hint of competitiveness in his graceful movements. Instead, he seemed to be just strolling around to watch the fun.
When the three of them passed by Luo Qinghe, who seemed to have crashed, they didn't forget to tease him, "If you keep watching, the daylily will be cold."
Can't chase.
Luo Qinghe frowned and told himself in his heart, This Tu Nian has many tricks up her sleeve. If he catches up with her, he will probably fall into her trap.
But what will it be?
The reason why he stood there like a computer crashed was that he couldn't think of any scheme that would require Tu Nian to separate the golden elixir from them with such a poor excuse.
Watching Liu Yuzhi and the other two passing by him made him feel itchy.
Nothing has happened yet. What if there really is no plan? Is he just going to wait foolishly for the others to snatch the token away?
Besides, the token originally belonged to Yuqing!
Forget it, at worst I fall into a trap, but at least there is someone to take the blame for it.
Thinking of this, Luo Qinghe made up his mind and immediately joined the group chasing Tu Nian on his sword.
Done!
Hard work pays off. Seeing that Tu Nian had put in so much effort and finally succeeded in luring the Jindan player and the four Yuanying players into the trap circle, Jixue and his group were overjoyed. The voices of support for them in the stands were like a tide, as if this chase had already crowned the crown of the melee on Jixue's head.
The audience who were hoping to watch a serious competition could only swallow their anger and remain silent in the stands, hoping in their hearts that one of the four contestants would stand up and expose their conspiracy.
However, things did not go as planned. Despite the painstaking planning of Jixue and Tu Nian, the first unlucky person finally appeared among the four contestants with Jindan cultivation.
“Ah!! Damn it, who dug this pit!?”
“Where’s the pit… ah!”
The second unlucky guy didn't arrive too late, and then the third and the fourth.
In fact, there is no order of priority. In order to ensure safety, Jixue dug pits all over the forest. When the first person fell in, the rest of the people had no way to escape.
As exclamations rang out one after another, those contestants who only had the Jindan cultivation level were all no match for the gravity talisman drawn by Tu Nian. Like persimmons harvested in autumn, they fell one by one into the pits set up by the snow-covered crowd early in the morning.
"Oh no, there's an ambush!"
