Pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger
"Not good, quickly open the city gates, retreat!"
How powerful was Ning Yue's perception? Di Lingtian and the rest had just started to take action and Ning Yue's acute perception discovered that something was amiss.
Ning Yue couldn't help but shout when he saw Di Lingtian charging towards him first.
Perfected Devil Saint sat on the city gate tower and everything that happened below fell into his eyes.
Di Lingtian was a peerless genius of the Divine Emperor Palace, the direct disciple of the Divine Emperor Palace's Old Ancestor with a cultivation of Pinnacle First Grade Earth Supreme.
Putting aside the powerhouses behind Di Lingtian, even if it was Di Lingtian himself, Ning Yue might not be able to withstand it.
Adding on the seven to eight martial artists behind Di Lingtian, Ning Yue definitely had no way of resisting.
Creak!
Seeing that Ning Yue was in danger, not only did Immortal Ji Mo try his best to open the city gate, even Grandmaster Xing Yun came forward to help.
Everyone adds fuel to the fire.
The city gate was quickly opened. With Ning Yue at the rear, over 40 First Grade Earth Sovereigns frantically rushed into the Giant Shield City.
"Give me your life!"
However, just as Ning Yue was about to enter the city gates, Di Lingtian's iron-like fist smashed towards Ning Yue's head.
Bang!
At the critical moment, Ning Yue immediately gave up on entering Giant Shield City. Instead, he raised his hand and clashed head-on with Di Lingtian's fist.
When the two fists collided, Ning Yue and Di Ling Tian retreated several feet away at the same time.
In this strike, both sides were evenly matched.
"Very good. I didn't expect your strength to improve again."
Rubbing his swollen wrist, Di Lingtian eerily said, "Fortunately, you have yet to reach the Earth Sovereign Realm. Otherwise, I would have to pay a price to capture you alive."
"You want to capture me alive?"
Hearing Di Lingtian's words, Ning Yue was first stunned, then revealed a ruminating smile.
I'm not afraid of you capturing me alive, but I'm afraid of you trying to kill me!
Since you want to capture me alive, you should be prepared to be captured by me.
Ning Yue quickly came up with a countermeasure.
Taking a deep breath, Ning Yue said, "Are you sure you can capture me alive? I'm standing right here. You can come up and try."
As he spoke, Ning Yue slowly closed his eyes. At the same time, his entire body became relaxed.
Ning Yue's sudden action not only confused Di Lingtian, but it also confused Daoist Master Ji Mo and the others on the city walls of Giant Shield City.
Ning Yue's butt was already on fire, yet he still had the leisure to do so.
He had to admit that he was indeed in a good mood.
"I'll go out and fetch Ning Yue back!"
After pacing back and forth on the city gate tower a few times, Reverend Qi Mo clenched his teeth, got up, and walked down the city gate tower.
Daoist Qi Mo didn't believe that Di Lingtian was the only one who had brought a few Eighth Grade Earth Sovereigns with him.
In his view, there must be Pinnacle Ninth Grade Earth Sovereigns hidden in the four armies. As long as they sensed a flaw in Ning Yue, they would immediately make a move.
"No need, Ning Yue hasn't sent out a distress signal, so none of us can make a move!"
Grandmaster Xingyun immediately stopped Reverend Qi Mo and said in a solemn voice, "What you need to do now is to prepare to open the city gate and have ten-odd robust men guard the city gate. The moment the city gate is opened, have ten-odd robust men charge in and buy time for Ning Yue."
Grandmaster Xingyun understood Ning Yue's character, and he knew that Ning Yue wouldn't fight a battle that he wasn't confident in.
In fact, in that instant, Ning Yue had a way to enter Giant Shield City, but he did not do so.
Thus, Grandmaster Xingyun felt that Ning Yue had a plan, so he couldn't disturb him right now.
"Alright."
Grandmaster Xingyun had interacted with Ning Yue for a long time, so Reverend Qi Mo could only follow Grandmaster Xingyun's instructions and gather ten-odd robust men to guard the city gate.
"You, go and test him!"
Di Lingtian wasn't a hothead. He kicked the butt of a First Grade Earth Sovereign beside him and sent the Second Grade Earth Sovereign towards Ning Yue.
This Second Grade Earth Sovereign was Di Lingtian's follower, and he usually helped Di Lingtian with matters that were inconvenient for him.
Now that he had a chance to test Ning Yue, this Second Grade Earth Sovereign was excited and worried at the same time.
He was excited because if he succeeded, his status in Divine Emperor Palace would definitely rise in the future.
But he was worried because Ning Yue was too powerful and could kill him with a single move.
Tsk!
This Second Grade Earth Sovereign approached Ning Yue, and the distance between him and Ning Yue was getting closer and closer.
Ning Yue's tightly shut eyes didn't open, but there was a drowsy look on his face.
"I'd like to see how capable you are!"
The Second Grade Earth Sovereign raised his right hand and fiercely smashed it towards Ning Yue's heart.
Seeing that the Second Grade Earth Sovereign's fist was about to hit Ning Yue's heart, Ning Yue still didn't move.
Swish!
In the eyes of the Second Grade Earth Sovereign, Ning Yue's inaction was the most significant movement.
At the critical moment, his fist slightly deviated and hit Ning Yue's chest.
Bang!
A huge force spread out and a figure was sent flying, slamming heavily into the wall.
This change caused a huge uproar among the surrounding cultivators.
It wasn't because Ning Yue was easily repelled, but because the cultivator who was repelled wasn't Ning Yue, but the Second Grade Earth Sovereign!
"Good sapling."
Ning Yue's expression was calm, but he couldn't help thanking the sapling in his heart.
In that instant, the sapling suddenly helped Ning Yue, and a branch whipped the Second Grade Earth Sovereign's fist.
Pfft!
After spewing a mouthful of blood, the expression of the Second Grade Earth Sovereign of the Emperor Palace turned for the better.
"Damn it!"
The Second Grade Earth Sovereign wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth with an extremely ugly expression.
He wanted to teach Ning Yue a lesson again, but his internal organs were about to fall apart, and he had lost the ability to continue attacking.
As for why he was defeated by Ning Yue, even he was a little dumbfounded.
Because before his fist could hit Ning Yue's chest, a branch swept out from Ning Yue's sleeve and whipped his fist.
Originally, it wouldn't be a big deal to be whipped by a branch.
But the branch that whipped the Second Grade Earth Sovereign wasn't an ordinary item, it was a branch of the World Tree.
Under its whipping, the Second Grade Earth Sovereign could only curse and doubt. There was nothing else he could do.
"Di Lingtian, are you going to let these cannon fodders fight me? Don't you have the guts? "
Ning Yue stretched out his right hand and pointed at Di Lingtian. "If you don't dare, I won't force you. We'll meet again."
"Stop!"
Seeing that Ning Yue was about to leave, Di Lingtian barked, "Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish!
"Let's have a showdown in front of the Giant Shield City!"
Di Lingtian flew a little further away from the city gate of Giant Shield City.
At this moment, Di Lingtian finally understood.
Ning Yue was pretending to be weak!
Moreover, the matter of Ning Yue leaving the city was a complete scam to trick him, Meng Quan, and the others into a trap.
If he hadn't guessed wrongly, there must be a large number of High Rank Earth Sovereigns around Ning Yue.
Di Lingtian didn't dare to get close to the city gate. He wanted to fight with Ning Yue in front of so many people and defeat Ning Yue fair and square!
