Chapter 117 People’s hearts are unpredictable
After a moment, Xia Zhongnan resolutely replied: "Okay, I agree!"
As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without risking it, so Xia Zhongnan decided to take the risk.
Compared to the two Void Realm masters, he was clearly at a disadvantage and posed no great threat to them. It was precisely because of this "weakness" that it became an "advantage" for him.
After Xia Zhongnan agreed, Mu Lianqing immediately shouted, "Old Monster Leng, why are you still standing there? Come and help us, let's team up to deal with this guy first!"
Leng Changhong laughed out loud: "Old Ghost Mu, you want the two of us in the Return to Void Realm to join forces to deal with a Spiritualization cultivator. If this gets out, wouldn't it make people laugh their heads off..."
Despite saying this, Leng Changhong still stood up and prepared to respond to Mu Lianqing's call.
At this moment, Gu Xiuzhang was extremely anxious. With only his Spiritualization cultivation, Xia Zhongnan could only resist one Void Returning Realm cultivator, which was already the limit. How could he possibly resist the joint attack of two Void Returning Realm masters? ...
He shouted loudly: "Linghu Chong is our important barrier against the two old demons in the Tribulation Crossing Stage. We must not let them join forces and fall into their hands. Fellow Taoists, hurry up!"
The Transformation Realm cultivator beside Leng Changhong quietly kept his distance from Xia Zhongnan after learning that the two Tribulation Realm cultivators had set up a trap to frame him. Seeing Leng Changhong stand up, they all looked around and prepared for battle.
Leng Changhong glanced at these cultivators and said sarcastically, "You guys actually want to attack me? Humph!"
After saying this, he straightened his body and took a step forward. Those cultivators in the Spirit Transformation Realm actually retreated backwards unconsciously.
If Leng Changhong attacked them right then and there, everyone would fight back; however, if they were asked to take the initiative to deal with a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage, no one would dare to hesitate.
As Leng Changhong pressed on, the cultivators also retreated step by step until they opened up a path for him. Although Gu Xiuzhang was anxious in the distance, all the cultivators in the Spiritual Transformation Realm eventually evacuated.
Even though their reason told them that what Gu Xiu Zhang said was true, no one was willing to be the first to start a fight. They would rather die like a frog in warm water than become a sacrifice to be killed as a warning to others by a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
Leng Changhong laughed loudly: "You still want to rely on such a mob to achieve great things, it's simply a foolish dream!"
After he finished speaking, he no longer paid attention to those Spirit Transformation Realm cultivators and flew straight towards where Mu Lianqing and Xia Zhongnan were fighting fiercely.
Gu Xiuzhan had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue rushing towards Xia Zhongnan. Even facing life and death, he was determined to fight alongside Xia Zhongnan.
However, how could his speed compare to that of a cultivator in the Transcendental Stage? When he was still halfway there, Leng Changhong had already arrived above where Mu Lianqing and Xia Zhongnan were fighting. But he did not attack immediately, but hovered in mid-air, staring at the ongoing battle below, with deep thought in his eyes.
Mu Lianqing shouted angrily: "Old man Leng, what are you still hesitating about? Hurry up and do it!"
Leng Changhong smiled and replied: "Don't be impatient. How can a cultivator in the Spiritualization Realm who can resist a cultivator in the Tribulation Realm fall so easily? Let me see what's so powerful about him first!"
Hearing this, Mu Lianqing secretly cursed Leng Changhong as a "cunning old fox" and immediately restrained his attack on Xia Zhongnan to prevent Leng Changhong from suddenly attacking from behind. Xia Zhongnan was extremely anxious because Gu Xiuzhang was rushing to him at full speed, which was clearly a death sentence!
Xia Zhongnan could no longer bear it and shouted, "Zhang Wuji, don't come over here. You're seeking death if you come over here!"
Gu Xiu Zhang even forgot Xia Zhongnan's alias and answered firmly: "Brother Fei, I'm here to lend you a hand!"
Xia Zhongnan said sternly: "What can your little cultivation strength do for me? You will only cause trouble for me! Stop now!"
However, Gu Xiu Zhang still moved forward and quickly approached the battlefield. In a few more breaths, he would break into the battle circle.
Xia Zhongnan could no longer care about anything else and could not help but shout, "Mu Lianqing and I are putting on a show for Leng Changhong to see. We are planning to join forces to get rid of him. Why are you interfering?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiuzhang suddenly stopped. Not only him, but everyone looked over here in astonishment, not knowing what was going on for a moment...
Mu Lianqing was furious. His carefully planned plan was about to succeed, but Xia Zhongnan saw through it. He was so angry that he wanted to slap him. However, Leng Changhong sneered and said loudly: "Old Demon Mu, you are really a hidden talent. I almost fell into your trap!"
The fight came to an abrupt end. Mu Lianqing simply stopped and stared at Leng Changhong and said, "Old Demon Leng, do you think I don't know your intentions? I see that you are not sincere in joining me in fighting this Spiritual Transformation Realm junior, but have other intentions. Wait for an opportunity to attack me!"
This statement undoubtedly confirmed Xia Zhongnan's previous statement that the two's performance was indeed intended to take advantage of Leng Changhong. Gu Xiuzhang and several other spiritual transformation cultivators were full of admiration, and they were shocked to realize that there were traps everywhere, and if they were not careful, they would end up in an unclear situation.
The current situation instantly fell into a stalemate. Mu Lianqing and Xia Zhongnan stopped fighting, and Leng Changhong naturally did not act rashly.
Leng Changhong suddenly spoke again: "Young man, that old demon Mu is not a good person. If you really join hands with him to get rid of me, I can conclude that he will immediately turn against you. How about this, as long as you are willing to join hands with me to get rid of old demon Mu, I am willing to share all the secret treasures here with you."
Mu Lianqing laughed loudly: "Old Demon Leng, you are wrong. This young man is very cunning. He will neither trust me nor you! If this continues, I am afraid we will just be wasting our time here."
Xia Zhongnan ignored them and walked towards Gu Xiuzhang cautiously. Gu Xiuzhang said awkwardly, "Brother, I'm sorry, I ruined your plan again."
Xia Zhongnan smiled calmly: "Look at these people, each of them is scheming and deceitful, but you are the only one who would rather sacrifice your life to come and help me. With a brother like you, what else can I ask for? Let's go, leave this place, I just came to find you, as long as you are safe and sound."
As soon as he finished speaking, he planned to take Gu Xiuzhang away. However, at this moment, Mu Lianqing and Leng Changhong's eyes flickered, and they looked at Xia Zhongnan at the same time. Mu Lianqing asked: "Young man, how can you enter the depths of this fog without being harmed?"
Xia Zhongnan responded casually: "How can a small foggy space stop me?"
Leng Changhong and Mu Lianqing acted side by side in an instant, attacking Xia Zhongnan and Gu Xiuzhan from the front and back, and the atmosphere became tense again.
Mu Lianqing said: "It's not that easy to leave!"
