"You … … why are you here?" The trio turned around and saw the person standing in front of them. Immediately, they turned pale with fright.
"None of the people on this mountain can escape from my sight," Cheng Yu said casually.
"You … … what do you want?" Xu Yuan asked.
Compared to Elder Fang and the other two, Cheng Yu's strength was much stronger. This was something they already knew.
Therefore, when they heard Elder Feng said that Cheng Yu wouldn't participate in their battle, everyone was rather happy.
Originally, everyone thought that without Cheng Yu's participation, they would definitely be able to kill off Elder Fang and the other two and become the victors of this battle.
However, how could they have imagined that Cheng Yu wouldn't participate in this battle? That was because they had prepared a few thousand masked experts!
In the end, before they could even enjoy the advantage in numbers, they were beaten up miserably by a few thousand people.
With so many people dying, the trio had finally broken out of the encirclement and escaped from there. Originally, they thought that they had managed to preserve their lives. But now, they were blocked by Cheng Yu. This time, it was truly troublesome.
If they knew it would be like this, they would have followed those people down the mountain. Why did they have to split up so stealthily?
Although they had three people and Cheng Yu was only a single person, they didn't have the slightest bit of confidence.
However, the trio was still on guard, ready to make a move at any time.
After all, Cheng Yu appearing here was definitely not as simple as meeting and chatting with them.
"What do you guys think?" Cheng Yu smiled.
"You are only one person. If you wish to kill the three of us, you might not be able to succeed. Why don't you let the three of us leave today? Count it as us owing you a favor. Perhaps, we might be able to return you an even bigger favor in the future! "Gao Cheng said to Cheng Yu.
"That's right. There's actually no enmity between us. If you were to kill us, it wouldn't be beneficial to you. Why don't we owe you a favor? Perhaps, we might be able to help you in the future. Wouldn't that be better for you? "Xu Yuan quickly followed up on Gao Cheng's words.
"You guys are so greedy for life and afraid of death. What value can you bring to me?" Cheng Yu said nonchalantly.
"This …" Gao Cheng and Xu Yuan were stunned. They didn't know how to reply.
It had to be said that ever since they came up the mountain, they hadn't done anything of value. They had almost never helped those people.
Even when they escaped later on, they made use of others to break through the encirclement.
"Nothing you've done on the mountain has escaped my eyes. You have so many allies, but I've never seen any of you lend a hand.
It can be seen that you will always put your own interests first. Do you think that if I let you go, you will work for me? "Cheng Yu sneered.
Although he did not participate in the battle, he could clearly see the situation of everyone on the battlefield from the sidelines.
From the very beginning, he had noticed these three people. These guys had been hiding in the crowd. Even when the people around them fell one by one, they had never helped his allies.
Such an incomparably selfish person, in fact, if he wanted their help in the future, it was very likely that he would be betrayed.
"Yes, yes, as long as you are willing to let us go today, we will definitely return this favor in the future!" Xu Yuan said quickly.
"Really?"
"That's for sure!" Xu Yuan continued.
"Unfortunately, I don't believe you. More importantly, I don't need your favor." Cheng Yu said.
"So you're saying that you must kill us?" Mo Zhengping said with a sullen face.
Gao Ping and Xu Yuan also looked at Cheng Yu in fear. It was obvious that they were very afraid of his strength.
"Originally, I did plan to kill you. However, since you have spent so much effort to escape, it is also because of your own ability.
Today, I will give you a chance to live. As long as you can escape from my vine prison, you will follow me in the future.
If you can't escape, then you can only die inside! " As Cheng Yu spoke, countless golden vines suddenly emerged from the ground. They formed a vine prison, trapping Mo Zhengping and the other two inside.
"Since we have escaped from this vine prison, shouldn't you return our freedom to us? Why do you still want us to follow you? "Xu Yuan looked at the golden vine prison that surrounded him and said with dissatisfaction.
This result was obviously too unfair to them. If they were to lose, it would be fine if they died inside. After all, their skills were inferior to Cheng Yu.
However, if they won, they still had to follow Cheng Yu and be bound by him. Then what was the point of them winning?
"Do you think you still have the qualifications to negotiate with me?" Cheng Yu sneered.
"Then what do you want in order to let us leave?" Gao Cheng asked.
"I can clearly tell you that you only have these two paths. However, I don't need trash. Therefore, since you have escaped, it can prove that your strength is not bad." Cheng Yu smiled.
"Trash? We are upright Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivators. If we are trash, how could we become Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivators? " When Xu Yuan heard that Cheng Yu had actually classified them as trash, he felt that he had been insulted. It was hard for him to accept it. He immediately retorted angrily.
"Whether you are trash or not isn't determined by your realm. In my eyes, those who have not met my requirements are all trash.
If you really want to prove that you are not trash, then you should first escape from my vine prison.
As long as your strength is able to move me, perhaps I will give you freedom! " Facing Xu Yuan's angry rebuttal, Cheng Yu didn't mind at all and said calmly.
To be honest, with his current strength, he had already seen too many Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivators.
If a cultivator was able to successfully cross the heavenly tribulation, it was impossible for them to be trash.
However, he didn't think so. There were strong and weak cultivators in the Crossing Tribulation Stage. Although it had a lot to do with the time of entering the Crossing Tribulation Stage, the strength of a cultivator in the Crossing Tribulation Stage wasn't entirely related to the time, there were also many other factors.
If these people were really not bad, he was still willing to let them live.
After all, the current Cheng Family's strength wasn't very strong. They still needed a lot of experts to make up for it.
Although these people were a bit selfish, as long as their strength could satisfy him, he was still willing to let them live and give it a try.
When the time came, other than their strength, they still couldn't satisfy him. At most, he would just kill them.
Cheng Yu was like this. If they couldn't become his people, then they might become his enemies. He wouldn't let those who might become his enemies live.
"Good! Then we will let you see our true strength. Just based on this vine prison, how can it possibly trap me? Watch carefully. I alone will be able to chop this vine prison apart. "Xu Yuan didn't place this vine prison in his eyes.
Although this vine was very thick, almost the same size as his arm, as a genuine Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivator, it was too easy for him to chop it apart.
Boom!
With the sword in his hand, he chopped down. Mo Zhengping and Gao Cheng only heard an explosion. The sword Qi that Xu Yuan had chopped down on the golden vine was instantly dispersed, disappearing without a trace.
"This … How could this be?" Xu Yuan trio was shocked. They stared blankly at the place where his sword had chopped down. There wasn't a single mark on the vine.
"What kind of vine is this? It's actually so tough? "Gao Cheng said in astonishment.
Although when Cheng Yu created this golden vine prison, he felt that it was somewhat weird, he didn't think too much of it.
But now that Xu Yuan's sword had chopped down, there wasn't even a single mark left. His mood immediately became a lot heavier. Obviously, this vine was not an ordinary vine.
"This should be made from some kind of very hard metal!" Mo Zhengping went forward and touched the surface of the vine as he said.
"But my sword Qi can cut through metal like mud. What kind of metal can be so hard that even my sword Qi couldn't leave a single mark on it?" Xu Yuan was still unable to accept such an outcome.
A Crossing Tribulation Realm cultivator actually couldn't even chop off a metal vine. This was too ironic.
Especially when he had boasted in front of Cheng Yu, not putting this vine prison in his eyes. In the blink of an eye, he had been slapped in the face.
If this scene was seen by other cultivators, even if he said he wasn't trash, no one would believe him.
"Impossible. It's impossible for there to be such a hard metal in this world! Move aside, let me try again! " Xu Yuan wasn't discouraged. He was confident in his own strength. Just now, he didn't use his full strength. If he were to use his full strength now, he would definitely be able to chop off this vine prison.
Mo Zhengping and Gao Cheng didn't object. Fortunately, this vine prison wasn't small. The two of them retreated to the side and watched Xu Yuan chop off the vine prison.
This time, Xu Yuan was really serious. In order to chop off this vine, he had even used his immortal spiritual energy.
"I hope it will succeed this time!" Gao Cheng prayed for Xu Yuan softly.
"I'm afraid things aren't that simple!" Mo Zhengping also said.
He felt that since Cheng Yu had used this vine prison to test them, then this vine prison would definitely not be a simple vine prison. If Xu Yuan was able to chop off the vine prison so easily, then what was the point of his test?
Wouldn't that mean that Cheng Yu was purposely going easy on them, allowing them to live?
Boom!
Xu Yuan's sword struck out once again. A powerful airflow surged in the surroundings, pushing Mo Zhengping and Gao Cheng back. It could be seen that Xu Yuan's sword was indeed very powerful.
