As soon as Cecilia left, Shi Yan glided around and discreetly arranged many small restrictions.
Then, he randomly found a tree with dense foliage and entered it. Closing his eyes, he secretly circulated his energy to sort out the aura in his acupoints and calm his mind.
Shi Yan had taken in the Essence Qi of Ando, Bai Hao, Mo Fou, Sha Zhao, Shang Ying Yue, and the warriors of the Fernandez family who were killed by the restrictions in the pond. Now, they were all refined in the acupuncture points of his God Body.
This Essence Qi was extremely abundant. In the process of cleansing, it would obviously cause his mind to go berserk. Naturally, he couldn't let Cecilia see it.
After he had reached Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm with the help of the Brilliant Star Fruit Tree, the Essence Qi ancient tree in his body had grown tremendously.
The Essence Qi of Ando, Bai Hao, and the others could satisfy him this time. It filled his Essence Qi ancient tree and made his God power more abundant. Perhaps, it could help him reach the Peak of Second Sky of Ethereal God Realm directly. It would help him focus on his understanding of power Upanishads.
Inside the ancient tree, Shi Yan sat quietly and waited for the energy in his body to be refined.
…
Mo Fou, Sha Zhao, the Wu brothers, Shang Ying Yue, and Jiao Shan scattered in a vague circular formation inside a bush that reached their waists. They were using the divine crystals to recover their energy.
They all knew that the time they had to rest was precious. Perhaps, when the next great battle came, they wouldn't have time to rest for a long time. They would have to fight until they died...
Thus, whenever they had time, they would try to recover the God power in their bodies so that they could be in the best condition to deal with the dangers in the future. Perhaps because of their cautiousness, they could live longer than the others. They weren't like Phelps, Mia, and the others who had killed them a long time ago.
Mo Fou, Wu Feng, and Shang Ying Yue were the first to recover. The divine crystals in their hands exploded and scattered on the ground.
Wu Feng frowned and looked at Shang Ying Yue. "What kind of person is he?"
Mo Fou also looked at Shang Ying Yue, his face stern. "His existence is related to our life and death. We want to know more about him. Please tell us more details."
As Shi Yan's Soul Consciousness wasn't shackled by the ancient continent, he was like their eyes. He could help them locate the enemies and get rid of the enemy's encirclement.
Strictly speaking, their lives were in Shi Yan's hands. If Shi Yan wanted to ambush them, Phelps, Mia, and Haig would find them and kill them quickly.
Mo Fou and Wu Feng were the leaders of their families. They didn't like the feeling of depending on others. At the same time, they were afraid that Shi Yan's wrong judgment would lead to their death. Thus, they had to be careful.
"I don't know him very well." Shang Ying Yue's clear and cold eyes sparkled. Her long eyelashes fluttered as she said faintly, "He got the Guiding Fruit from my father. Because of this, before I got here, I hated him a lot..."
Shang Ying Yue simply told them how she had met Shi Yan. Pausing for a while, she added, "This man is cold and heartless. He only cares about himself. He doesn't care about other people's lives. Let me put it this way. If we can't help him resist the Protoss warriors, if he can escape without our help, he won't care about our lives! "
Mo Fou and Wu Feng discolored.
"Someone's coming!"
Sha Zhao jolted up. The deep green halo in his eyes moved restlessly as if he was using the venomous insects to sense something.
After a while, Sha Zhao exhaled in relief. "It's Cecilia."
Everybody relaxed. Then, they recalled something. Their eyes changed. Mo Fou screamed, "Where's Shi Yan? Have you sensed him? "
Sha Zhao shook his head, his face complicated. "No, I don't see him. It's just Cecilia alone."
The warriors who were meditating jolted up. They were flustered, their faces grimaced. "What's the use of Cecilia? If he's not here, we're blind. How can we resist the Protoss? "Wu Feng said coldly.
Everybody nodded discreetly. They agreed with Wu Feng. In their minds, Shi Yan's life was much more valuable than Cecilia's.
"Did something unexpected happen to him?" someone asked.
Everybody's face darkened. Mo Fou snorted and said coldly, "Cecilia's trash. She came back but she didn't bring him here!"
Everybody nodded.
"Who said I'm trash?"
However, at this moment, Cecilia's voice arose. Her face was cold. Looking at the others who were looking at her with cold eyes, she felt so wronged. She couldn't help but scold them. "Don't you have any shame? When I was risking my life to fight Mia's team, you guys stayed here to recover your power. Now that I'm back, do you think I need to listen to your sarcastic remarks? "
"Where's Shi Yan?"
"Where's Shi Yan?"
"Why didn't he come back with you?"
"Did you hurt him or something unexpected happened to him because of you?"
No one cared about Cecilia's anger. They directly asked about Shi Yan's whereabouts. They wanted to know if Shi Yan was still alive or not.
Cecilia looked at their faces and felt powerless. She suddenly recognized that she couldn't compete with Shi Yan or bargain with him. It was just like what Shi Yan had said. If Shi Yan wanted her dead, he didn't need to do it himself. He just needed to tell Mo Fou and Wu Feng.
She felt dispirited and begrudging. She didn't complain anymore. "He's okay. He just wants to cultivate for a while. He said that he would meet us later."
As soon as she said that, everyone heaved a sigh of relief, and their tense nerves relaxed. Only then did they have the leisure to care about her. They all asked her what had happened, whether the restriction they had set up had worked, and whether Mia's people had been severely injured.
"The four warriors of the Bai family are all dead. I killed them instantly in the pond. I also killed a warrior of the Fernandez family who cultivates Fire power Upanishad. He's at Third Sky of Ethereal God Realm!" said Cecilia arrogantly.
Everybody was shaken. Shang Ying Yue was obviously thrilled. She balled her fists, her soft body shivering.
She hated Bai Hao's team as deep as the ocean. She had always wanted to eradicate the Bai family. Today, she heard that Bai Hao's team was killed. Of course, she couldn't hide her excitement. The dark cloud in her heart seemed to be swept away.
"The restrictions you've set up have hurt all of them. You've killed three or four of them. Mia's team has suffered a big loss this time," continued Cecilia.
Everybody laughed and cheered as if they were celebrating a festival. During the past five years, they had been running helter-skelter. They were always in a disadvantageous situation. They had never been able to make Phelps and Mia pay such a big price like this. To them, it was a rare victory that boosted their morale a lot.
"Shi Yan did the best. He captured Yue Man and forced Mia to take back her Seven-colored Demonic Flower. He also hurt Yue Man badly," smiled Cecilia.
"Fierce, indeed!"
"I can't believe he could use the same trick again! Not bad!"
"How can this guy capture the key figures time and time again? He's so abnormal! "
Everybody complimented him. They were so excited as if they thought that they had won a battle.
Cecilia forced a smile. She knew that in their eyes, only Shi Yan was important. He was the one who could lead them out of this predicament. No matter how big her merits were, they didn't really care about her.
In other words, she couldn't be like Shi Yan, the "eyes" of the others. Thus, she couldn't have such a good treatment.
At this moment, Cecilia got it. If she could get Shi Yan's support, it wouldn't be hard for her to do anything she wanted in this team. She thought. A strange light sparkled in her eyes as if she had a new idea.
…
Mia's team was looking at Yue Man in the middle of the craters on the ground by the murky lake, their faces stern.
Yue Man had swallowed a lot of pellets. After a long time to digest and recover, his aura gradually stabilized. The wounds on his body also healed. He was in a deep sleep now. With this trend, Yue Man's God Body was safe. As long as he didn't urge his energy, he would be fine for the next few years.
Mia exhaled in relief. She took out the divine crystals to recover her energy. The warriors of the Fernandez family also sat neatly by Yue Man to recover their energy.
After some time, Mia opened her eyes and suddenly snorted coldly.
Shadows appeared and slowly walked toward them from a far distance. Haig and Phelps walked together. They looked at her with strange countenances. Looking at the situation around them, their faces became stern.
Phelps looked at Yue Man and then at the graves in the distance. He grinned coldly as if he was taking pleasure in others' misfortune.
Haig snorted all of a sudden.
Phelps immediately shut his mouth, his face frightened. He put away his arrogant face and became cautious.
"What happened?" Haig frowned and looked at Mia. "I can feel that you guys have a battle. The energy is surging fiercely. Are they just two warriors? Could they hurt you that much?"
"They've arranged a lot of ambushes here." Mia bit her lower lip and gazed at Haig. "Your information is correct. That man is in the lake with a woman. But you didn't tell us that they had set up a barrier!"
Haig was surprised. He said oddly, "I don't have enough energy to watch them every second. But there are only two of them. Didn't you kill them?"
"That man cultivates Space power Upanishad!" Mia reminded him coldly. "If he wants to run away, we can't stop him. Anyway, he's tough to deal with."
Haig frowned and shook his head. "I don't think so."
