"An acquaintance?"
The Dazzling Slug was a little surprised.
"Let's go over and take a look." Wang Teng took the lead and moved forward. His figure was hidden in the shadows, and it was as if he had disappeared.
The Dazzling Slug was a little surprised, and asked, "Did you use this method to deceive my senses before?"
"That's only one of them," Wang Teng replied indifferently.
The Dazzling Slug fell silent and didn't ask any more questions.
Wang Teng quickly saw the situation up ahead. A group of people was fighting in the forest, and the scene was quite tragic.
One side had many people, while the other side only had one person.
However, the side with the advantage wasn't the side with more people. Instead, it was the side with only one person.
That was a black-robed person who was extremely powerful. He held a battle sword in his hand, and streaks of green sword light erupted from the battle sword, firmly suppressing the person opposite him.
Meanwhile, several people had already fallen in the surroundings, and all of them had their heads chopped off. They couldn't be more dead, and they didn't even have the chance to forfeit.
"So ruthless?!" Wang Teng's eyes narrowed. This scene truly made his heart tremble slightly.
Although he had experienced many scenes of slaughter, and there were even quite a few that were more terrifying than this …
He could be considered experienced and knowledgeable, so he wouldn't be frightened.
However, this was clearly a competition of the secondary professions, yet such a brutal scene had actually appeared. This was somewhat surprising.
Then, his gaze turned toward another group of people who were continuously retreating. He saw a familiar figure in that group.
It was … Le Yan!
This was really an ill-fated relationship.
Wang Teng couldn't help but feel a little speechless. He had already deliberately avoided her, and he didn't expect to still encounter her here.
How could it be so coincidental?!
Just as Wang Teng couldn't help but grumble inwardly, the people of the Le Family outside could be said to be completely tense.
Their expressions were quite unsightly as they looked at the situation on the light screen.
In particular, Le Pan's expression was completely gloomy at this moment, and he couldn't help but clench his fists.
Everyone knew that the black-robed person was a murderous star. Everyone who came into contact with him died, and they all had their heads chopped off. It was extremely brutal.
Thus, the people of the core family clans were all praying that the prodigies of their families wouldn't encounter this person.
In the end, in the end, the Le Family still encountered him.
Just how unlucky was he?
The other core family members could not help but look at Le Pan with sympathy.
Not only were all the geniuses of the Le Family there,
There was also his biological daughter, Le Yan.
Most importantly, Le Yan was the top genius of this generation of the Le Clan. If she died just like that, it would be the greatest loss to the Le Clan.
There were also many core families who were secretly gloating.
Not far from the Le Family's seats.
Patriarch Xavier of the Ruskin Family, one of the core families of alchemy, sneered.
The head of the Ruskin family had always been at odds with the Yue family.
Now that they saw this scene, they were naturally secretly happy.
When the members of the Feng family saw this, they were shocked.
Similarly, they were gloating.
They hadn't forgotten the situation in the trading hall. Didn't the Le Clan look down on their Si Clan?
Now, let's see how unlucky they are.
"Le Pan.
You don't have to worry too much. After all, your Le Clan has a lot of people, and there are also a few poison geniuses from the Lan Clan. I think their strength is pretty good. "The Dan Clan's Patriarch, Dan Guang, comforted.
"Indeed.
That Lan Yu was truly surprising.
I didn't think that the Lan Clan would be able to produce a genius on par with Lan Shang. "The Li Clan's Patriarch, Li Zhengqing, nodded.
Even so,
They didn't think highly of the geniuses from the Le Clan and the Lan Clan.
Because the opponent was too strange.
He was ridiculously powerful.
Many geniuses with secondary professions had already died at his hands.
That Lan Yu's poison dao strength was indeed not bad.
However, in the face of a true martial arts expert,
It was still a little difficult.
In this regard,
The secondary professions were also very helpless.
After all, what they were good at was their secondary professions. No matter what,
Their martial arts strength was their weak point.
Of course, there was still a glimmer of hope.
So at this moment, they were all nervously watching the scene on the light screen.
They were waiting for the final result.
Could the geniuses of the Le Clan and the Lan Clan escape with their lives?
Le Pan heard the comforting words of the two Patriarchs.
He just shook his head and didn't say anything.
He was very clear about the situation.
It was easier said than done to escape from the hands of that black-robed man.
At this moment, he even wished that Le Yan could give up. But he knew Le Yan very well.
At the last moment, with her pride, she would never give up.
On the other side.
The Lan Clan's Patriarch, Lan Ji, didn't look too good. Originally, he should have been happy that a genius who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Lan Shang had appeared in the Lan Clan. But under such circumstances, he couldn't be happy.
"Damn it!" Lan Ji looked at the situation on the light screen, gritted his teeth, and couldn't help but curse.
He even complained about the Le Clan. After all, in his opinion, if they didn't cooperate with the Le Clan, their Lan Yu wouldn't have fallen into such a desperate situation.
In short, it was all a woman's fault.
Facing Lan Ji's gaze, the corner of Le Pan's mouth couldn't help but twitch. He felt that the expressionless Lan Clan's Patriarch was looking at him, and his eyes were quite unfriendly.
…
The situation outside.
Wang Teng and the others naturally didn't know anything.
Boom! Boom! Boom …
In the forest, the roaring sound kept coming out. The aftermath of the force spread out, pushing down the big trees one by one. The ground was also blown into holes, and sword marks were plowed out.
The black-robed man was obviously a wind-attribute martial artist. The sword light he emitted was cyan and contained rich wind-attribute force.
Wang Teng could feel it from afar.
Le Yan and the others were in an extremely difficult situation. They didn't even have the chance to rush into the sky. They were covered and sealed by the opponent's domain.
"Ah!"
A scream suddenly came out.
A genius with a secondary profession was beheaded. Blood spurted out from his neck, more than ten meters long.
"It's really high!" Wang Teng raised his head and muttered uncontrollably.
Could an ordinary person's blood spurt so high?
Anyway, a martial artist could.
Suddenly, his expression became a little strange. Because the martial artist who was just killed was very close to Le Yan, a lot of blood splashed on her pretty face, causing her to fall into a momentary daze.
To be able to reach this point, she must have seen life and death, but it was probably the first time she saw a companion beheaded at such a close distance. It was inevitable that she would be a little absent-minded.
But in such an environment, this trace of absent-mindedness was enough to take her life.
"Be careful!"
A soft shout sounded.
Le Yan's expression changed drastically as she saw a cyan sword light coming at her.
Fortunately, a young man beside her acted in time and pulled her to the side, allowing her to avoid this fatal blow.
"This woman is still absent-minded at such a critical moment." Wang Teng was speechless.
In the outside world, Le Pan was sweating profusely. His back was instantly soaked in sweat.
Le Yan came back to her senses, and her pale face became even paler. But after all, she was a heaven's pride, and her temperament was far better than ordinary people. She immediately calmed down and transmitted her voice to a young man in the distance, "Brother Lan Yu, is there a way to deal with this person?"
"I need thirty seconds." The young man called Lan Yu had an indifferent expression, and he transmitted his voice while dodging the opponent's attack.
"Okay, we'll buy you thirty seconds." Le Yan gritted her teeth and transmitted her voice to the others, "Be sure to block this black-robed man for thirty seconds. Lan Yu has a way to deal with it. If everyone works together, there's still a chance of survival."
Hearing this, everyone knew that there was no better way. They immediately nodded with a serious expression.
"People of the Le Family, follow me and form a formation." Le Yan shouted softly. She suddenly took out a disc in her hand and injected her Force into it.
The remaining people of the Le Family seemed to understand what she was going to do. Immediately, they were overjoyed and immediately changed their positions.
In an instant, everyone formed a strange formation, and Le Yan happened to be in the center of the crowd.
"This is a human formation." Wang Teng was a little surprised.
He was originally prepared to retreat, but he did not expect to see this scene. It suddenly piqued his interest.
The so-called human formation was actually using humans as the formation patterns to set up a slightly simple formation. From there, one could unleash strength far beyond one's own.
This method was much easier than setting up a large formation. Moreover, it could be set up and used quickly without much time.
However, there was a crucial item, and that was the disc in Le Yan's hand.
This item was called a formation disc. It was a disc inscribed with a formation in a Runemaster. There was a miniature version of the formation on it. With it as the foundation and a martial artist as the core to drive it, one could achieve the goal of using humans to set up a formation.
As a Grandmaster Runemaster, Wang Teng naturally understood this method. However, he did not dabble in it.
This was because the knowledge in this area was relatively mysterious and rare. Moreover, the so-called formation disc was a part of the ancient Runes. Very few Runemasters could come into contact with it.
Even the few Grandmasters of Runes in the Qian Empire might not have knowledge in this area.
The fact that Le Yan could have this formation disc was probably related to the core family of the Runes.
The Le Family was a core family of alchemy. However, it was difficult to guarantee that they would not be related to one of the core families of the Runes.
Even if these core families were independent, they were still inextricably linked.
At this moment, Wang Teng stopped and prepared to wait to see if he could pick up some related attribute bubbles.
To him, picking up attribute bubbles was the most important thing. Everything else had to be put aside.
Buzz!
As the people of the Le Family were in position, Le Yan immediately activated the formation disc in her hand. A buzzing sound was heard.
Then, with Le Yan as the center, a circular formation suddenly rose and enveloped the people of the Le Family.
All of this took a long time to describe, but in fact, it only took a moment. The battle sword in the black-robed man's hand had already slashed out several times.
Boom!
Streaks of cyan Sword Qi instantly bombarded the Array formed by Le Yan and the others, causing a loud boom to erupt.
The formation that had just been formed suddenly fluctuated violently. Le Yan and the others were still too hasty.
As the formation fluctuated violently, the people who set up the formation could not help but take a few steps back. They were almost unable to maintain the formation.
Le Yan's expression was solemn. She did not dare to be negligent and immediately activated the formation disc. Streaks of fire pillars suddenly rose from the formation and condensed into a terrifying fire python. It circled around the formation and emitted a shocking fluctuation.
"Interesting!" Wang Teng's eyes flashed, and a trace of interest appeared on his face.
The power of this formation was at least comparable to a peak domain lord level expert.
Moreover, it was an extremely powerful peak domain lord level expert. It was not weak like Le Yan and the others, who only had martial arts cultivation but could not even display 10% or 20% of it.
In his opinion, they were really a fighter among weaklings.
"Go!"
As the fire python condensed, Le Yan suddenly let out a soft shout and pointed a finger forward.
Boom!
The fire python was like a living creature. It let out a hiss and then shot out explosively towards the black-robed man.
This formation had condensed the origin power of several geniuses of the Le Family, and its power was indeed extraordinary.
However …
"Ha!" The black-robed man only let out a contemptuous laugh and said in a hoarse voice, "A mantis trying to stop a chariot!"
Boom!
In the next moment, a resplendent green light condensed on the tip of his sword and turned into an extremely terrifying sword ray.
Boom!
In the blink of an eye, the sword collided with the fire python, and a terrifying explosion of origin power erupted. Wind and fire origin power swept out in all directions, and wherever it passed, the trees were either cut into pieces or set ablaze, instantly turning into ashes.
Le Yan stared ahead, but at this moment, the fire python suddenly collapsed and was slashed apart by the green sword ray.
This scene caused her expression to change greatly, and her eyes were filled with extreme shock. She really did not expect the black-robed man to be so strong. Even if she used the formation disc, she could not block the other party's attack.
"Retreat!"
Le Yan did not care about anything else at this time and hurriedly shouted at everyone.
Everyone was still in a daze and could not dodge in time. They could only watch as the sword ray sped over.
Le Yan's expression was ugly. She knew that it was too late. She immediately gritted her teeth and could only try her best to activate the formation disc in her hand.
Buzz buzz buzz …
With the injection of origin power, the formation enveloping everyone became brighter and brighter.
Boom!
The sword ray arrived in the blink of an eye and bombarded the formation.
Kacha!
In just an instant, the formation collapsed under the sword ray, and everyone in the formation spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying.
Puff! Le Yan's complexion instantly turned as pale as a sheet of paper and she retreated several steps. The disk array in her hand was unable to withstand the impact and instantly shattered into eight pieces, unable to break any further.
However, she could not care so much at this time. She immediately looked at Lan Yu and shouted, "Brother Lan Yu!"
The indifferent youth's eyes flashed, and without the slightest hesitation, he instantly threw a grayish-green ball in his hand at the black-robed man.
The grayish-green ball instantly turned into a stream of light and arrived in front of the black-robed man in the blink of an eye.
"Humph!" The black-robed man snorted and casually slashed with the sword in his hand.
Chi!
The grayish-green ball was immediately cut in half, but an unexpected situation occurred.
"Boom!" The greyish-green ball actually exploded and turned into a dense greyish-green mist. Swept up by the origin power shockwaves, the mist spread out in all directions and enveloped everyone within.
Le Yan was stunned. She saw Lan Yu withdraw and disappear into the forest in the blink of an eye.
"Ran … ran away?!"
In an instant, despair welled up in her heart.
She was even unwilling to accept this fact, but when she turned her head, she saw that Yamcha, who was not far away, also had a look of despair.
Thus, she had no choice but to accept the fact that the other party had abandoned them and ran away.
A bitter smile suddenly appeared on her pretty face.
Puff! Wang Teng almost laughed out loud. This woman is too stupid. She actually trusts others so much. I don't know how she has lived to this day.
Based on their previous contact, she shouldn't be such a brainless person. I didn't expect to gain experience today.
"Aren't you going to save her?" The Dazzling Slug's voice suddenly sounded.
"Why should I save her?" Wang Teng asked in reply.
"Isn't she an acquaintance of yours?" The Dazzling Slug was startled.
"Acquaintances are acquaintances, but we aren't life and death friends. Also, the man in the black robe is troublesome. I don't want to find trouble for myself," Wang Teng said calmly. "Also, she has one last choice — forfeit! So it won't be my turn no matter what, right? "
"Ah, is that so? What a heartless human. "The Dazzling Slug was silent for a moment, then sighed with emotion.
"…" Wang Teng.
Hey, hey, where did you get this emotion from?
I just don't want to cause trouble. How is that heartless?
Wang Teng expressed his dissatisfaction.
The grayish-green mist remained for a while, then slowly dissipated, revealing the situation inside.
The black-robed man stood in place. His face was covered by a hood, and his expression couldn't be seen clearly.
Not far in front of him, more than half of the Le Family's people had fallen unconscious, and their faces were ashen. It was obvious that they had been poisoned.
Le Yan sat cross-legged on the ground. Her pretty face was also ashen, but she hadn't fallen unconscious. Instead, she quickly took out a pill and swallowed it, temporarily suppressing the ashen color.
Her eyes were fixed on the black-robed man in front of her. As long as this person was also poisoned, they still had a glimmer of hope.
However, reality gave her a ruthless blow.
The black-robed man didn't seem to be poisoned. He slowly walked toward Le Yan and the others, and the sword in his hand was slowly raised, like a butcher walking toward his prey on the chopping board.
A look of despair appeared on Le Yan's pretty face again.
In the outside world, Le Pan clenched his fists and couldn't help but glare fiercely at the Lan Family's Patriarch, Lan Ji.
"What are you looking at me for? In that situation, Lan Yu chose to protect herself. There shouldn't be any problems, right? "Lan Ji said indifferently.
The surrounding Patriarchs of the core families had strange expressions and couldn't help but look at Le Pan with sympathy.
Le Pan took a deep breath and didn't say anything in the end. His gaze once again returned to the light screen and looked at Le Yan. "Quickly forfeit, Yan 'er, quickly forfeit!"
On the Medicine Garden Planet, Le Yan looked at the people of the Le Family lying around her, and the despair on her face grew stronger.
She could take out the token and choose to forfeit.
However, she was the one who led the Le Family into a desperate situation. What qualifications did she have to escape?
"This woman actually didn't choose to forfeit?" Wang Teng was a little speechless.
The black-robed man slowly raised the sword in his hand. He seemed to like to see his prey struggling.
A green sword light condensed on the sword, and the sword light suddenly fell.
Boom!
However, the sword light was not heading towards Le Yan. Instead, it made a turn and slashed towards somewhere behind her.
"Huh?!" Wang Teng's expression changed slightly. He immediately dodged and appeared hundreds of meters away.
Bang!
The big tree he was hiding in was instantly cut in half and slowly fell to the ground with a creaking sound.
"I've been discovered!" Wang Teng's face showed a trace of surprise.
How could he have been discovered?
"Your concealment technique is very good. How did you get discovered?" The Dazzling Slug was also surprised.
"You're asking me? Who am I supposed to ask?" Wang Teng said unhappily.
On the other side, Le Yan was already waiting for death. The moment the black-robed man's sword fell, she even closed her eyes and silently savored the feeling of despair in her heart.
Then, when the roar sounded, the pain she expected did not appear. Instead, it was as if nothing had happened, so she had no choice but to open her eyes.
In the end, she actually saw someone she had never expected.
Wang Teng!!!
In the distance, a figure slowly walked out of the forest as if he was taking a stroll in the park. It was as if he didn't care about the danger here.
"Am I seeing things?" Le Yan blinked and couldn't help but think to herself.
"Wang Teng!!!"
There was also an uproar in the outside world.
"F * ck, why is he there?"
"That's not right. Why wasn't it broadcasted just now?"
"I know, the screens have overlapped. Wang Teng and Le Yan's screens are in the same region, so only one image was shown. We didn't discover his existence."
"F * ck, that's possible!"
…
Le Pan couldn't help but show a trace of astonishment and shock on his face. Then, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
This Wang Teng was a true god genius contract holder of the Virtual Universe Company's contract. His martial arts ability was definitely extraordinary.
With him around, Le Yan still had a trace of hope.
On Medicine Garden Planet, Wang Teng looked at the black-robed man and couldn't help but ask, "How did you discover me?"
The black-robed man didn't answer. He turned to face Wang Teng, and the battle sword in his hand exploded with dazzling sword light. It was as if he felt a trace of threat from Wang Teng.
"Wang Teng, he seemed to have glanced at me just now," the Dazzling Slug suddenly said.
"Glanced at you? What do you mean … Wait! " Wang Teng was slightly taken aback. Then, he seemed to have thought of something. He squinted his eyes and activated his Eye of Truth to look at the black-robed man before him.
However, a scene that shocked him appeared. The black robe seemed to have the ability to block detection, and he couldn't see through it.
A black robe was actually able to block his Eye of Truth. This was the first time he had encountered something like this.
"There's something strange about this black-robed man!" Wang Teng muttered to himself.
The black-robed man didn't waste any time. He suddenly waved the battle sword in his hand and slashed toward Wang Teng.
Hong!
The green sword light was as fast as lightning and shot toward Wang Teng.
"Don't be so nervous." Wang Teng's body flashed, and he once again dodged the sword. He laughed and said, "I was just passing by. I didn't see anything just now. Why don't you … continue? I won't disturb you anymore. "
Le Yan: "…"
The trace of hope that had just arisen was suddenly doused with cold water. She immediately clenched her teeth.
This … bastard! Bastard!
Thank you for your understanding. Thank you very much. Bow ~
I've browsed through the comments of my readers today, and I'm quite gratified to see that there are readers who really understand the author's writing style.
To be honest, if I had to finish it all in one go, I could also do it, but it would definitely be dry and boring. If I were to finish it all in one go, you guys would instantly lose interest.
I'm also a person like that. Once this kind of situation occurs, I basically can't stand it anymore.
Thus, I chose this writing style to make the plot as rich as possible and not dry and boring.
However, it's actually a process, not a result.
If I were to finish it all in one go, it would really be boring.
Also, I've updated with 12,000 words today to make up for yesterday's update. I could have written more, but I've moved some of the plot from yesterday to the end. It's about 1,000 words, so I can't release it now. I can only release it later.
