"What? It's fake? " Everyone was dumbfounded. At the same time, they revealed strange and doubtful expressions. After all, no one had seen the key before. How could they prove that the key was fake?
Shi Yuyan was even more stunned. She looked at Yang Qingxuan with a look of seeking confirmation.
Yang Qingxuan only felt his heart thumping violently. He calmly said, "Haha, what a joke. How could I have a fake key? There's only one key. If I destroy it, there's nothing left. "
Even though he pretended to be calm, the people staring at him were all people. They immediately sensed his lack of confidence. Instantly, their gazes became sharp and cold.
Yang Qingxuan's expression became unsightly. He knew that he had been seen through.
Shi Yuyan was also furious. She glared fiercely at him.
Xi Da was stunned for a moment. Then, he said, "Lord Profound Cultivator, how did you know that it was a fake key? Could it be that you've seen the real key?"
Xuan Tianji laughed. "Haha, I haven't seen the real key. But based on my understanding of Yang Qingxuan, he's someone who repays kindness. Hongyuan and Mo Court have both helped him. He definitely wouldn't send them to their deaths. Secondly, and most importantly, he destroyed the key after listening to your explanation of how to use the key. If he really wanted to destroy it, he would've done so long ago. Why would he have the time to listen to you before destroying it? "
Xi Da finally understood. He repeatedly said, "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed."
In terms of intelligence and strategy, he was completely convinced by Xuan Tianji.
Yang Qingxuan's expression changed several times. Besides the people in the formation, he also sensed a few unfriendly gazes. They were directed at him by Hu Hai and the others.
Xi Da asked again, "Why did he pretend to destroy the key? Was it to anger everyone? This explanation doesn't make sense, right? "
Xuan Tianji thought for a moment. "You'll have to ask Yang Qingxuan himself. Perhaps … he wanted to stall for time? If someone knew that the key was with him, they would definitely snatch it from him. "
When Yang Qingxuan heard this, he felt a chill run down his spine. All of his schemes and tricks had been seen through by Xuan Tianji.
He was indeed trying to stall for time, waiting for Lie Jiefei and Ying Zhe to come and mess up the situation. Furthermore, with Lie Jiefei around, the situation would be even more under control.
No one had ever seen that key before. He had randomly found a piece of metal and molded it into the shape of a key. He had originally thought that it was flawless, but he did not expect that someone would still see through it.
"This person is too terrifying!"
Yang Qingxuan suddenly remembered what Hua Jieyu had said. This person would be his lifelong enemy.
"Gulp." He swallowed his saliva and felt powerless.
Every time he faced Xuan Tianji, Yang Qingxuan was much stronger than before. However, when he stared at this person through the layers of clouds, he felt more and more unfathomable and powerless.
"Can such an enemy be defeated?"
Yang Qingxuan asked himself. His mind was shaken.
"Give me the key!"
Just as Yang Qingxuan was in a daze, the slender man's figure flashed and appeared in front of him. He stretched out his hand like a bamboo pole and asked for the key.
Yang Qingxuan flipped his hand and a golden key appeared in his hand. It was full of treasure. He stared at Xuan Tianji and sneered, "If I had kept the key, you would have had a chance to come out. Now … it's all up to you."
As he spoke, he clenched his hand and the key immediately burst into flames.
"No!" Shi Yuyan screamed and was about to snatch the key.
However, the slender man was faster. He stepped in front of Yang Qingxuan and flipped his hand. It was as if the sky was covering the key. At the same time, he shouted angrily, "You're courting death!"
Yang Qingxuan raised his hand and the key was in his palm. It was surrounded by red flames and Spiritual Qi. It spun rapidly and slammed towards the slender man.
Bam!
The two of them slammed their palms together. The violent Spiritual Qi smashed the key into a cloud of golden dust. The dust was blown away by the wind and disappeared without a trace.
Yang Qingxuan retracted his hand and snorted coldly. "Now … the key is really gone."
Xi Da smiled bitterly. "It's all my fault. Curiosity killed the cat."
"Haha." Xuan Tianji laughed. "Interesting. Everyone, what do you think? Should we continue to wait or work together to break the formation?"
Hongyuan suddenly said, "Breaking the formation is a must, but I'd like to wait a little longer. I'm sure all of you have been eagerly studying the wonders of the Lotus Flower Formation of the Heaven and Earth Fixing Spell, right? There aren't many things that can tempt us anymore. To be honest, I'd be happy to stay here for another ten years. "
Yu Wuji yelled, "Who wants to stay here with you for another ten years? The mysteries of this spell formation are too shallow. Only people with weak Dao intent like you would be interested in it. I don't want to stay here for even a second longer. "
Hongyuan said calmly, "You're the best. You can leave by yourself."
Yu Wuji said coldly, "When I get out, I'll kill you first. Then, I'll go to the Heaven's Nest and kill the rest of them! "
Hongyuan yelled, "This isn't the first time you've said that. Looks like I really can't let you live!"
The two of them glared at each other with undisguised killing intent.
Ri Yu said loudly, "Stop arguing. Yu Wuji is right. Getting out of here is the most important thing."
Shi Yan raised his head and said, "As long as the six of us work together, we can leave at any time. However, we won't have the opportunity to encounter the mysteries of this spell formation again. I agree with Master Hongyuan. "
Shi Yuyan was shocked. "Father …" She didn't expect Shi Yan to refuse to come out.
Xi Da smiled bitterly. "If the six of you work together to break the formation, I'm afraid we won't be able to protect this palace."
When the slender man and the others heard this, they were both shocked and furious.
The slender man glared at Yang Qingxuan and said coldly, "It's all your fault. If I don't kill you, I won't be able to vent my anger!"
Yang Qingxuan sneered. "If Ye Queen and the others come out, even if we can protect the palace, do you think you'll get a share of the things inside?"
The slender man was stunned for a moment, then calmed down and stood to the side without saying anything.
The whole situation came to a standstill. Everyone didn't know what to do.
They couldn't advance, but they didn't want to retreat.
Yang Qingxuan had used up too much energy in his battle with Shi Yuyan. He simply sat down cross-legged to recover his True Yuan.
Zi Yuan also sat quietly beside him.
Shi Yuyan looked at the two of them and felt an indescribable bitterness in her heart. She asked herself, "What's wrong with me? I was fine before. Why did I lose my composure now? Did I fall in love with him? "
When she thought of this, she felt a trace of fear and hurriedly denied it. "No, it's only because he has the Taixuan Sword Tomb that I started paying attention to him."
The slender man, Ye Cheng, and the others also stood in the distance and found a place to sit down. Even Hu Hai didn't attack Yang Qingxuan and became very quiet.
Not long after, more people arrived one after the other. However, they didn't look too good, and many of them were injured.
Later on, more people arrived, and their complexions were better than those who came before. This was because the vipers on the Nether Sea had all been wiped out by the attacks of the cultivators.
On the entire Dim Radiant Road, apart from taking a longer time, there was basically no risk.
