"Haha, that's enough. The moon is bright and the wind is cool. It's a good time to drink to our heart's content. Why talk about these useless things?"
Seeing that the atmosphere was inexplicably heavy, Ye Huntian smiled in a low voice and looked at Fang Xing with a meaningful look in his eyes. Fang Xing also smiled and gently turned the wine glass in his hand. Dao Wufang, the young master of Tianyi Palace, laughed and raised his glass to urge them to drink, diluting the inexplicable heaviness in the atmosphere. Naturally, the others also raised their glasses in a hurry and said some polite words. Fang Xing and Ye Huntian didn't say anything more. It seemed that they each had their own ideas and answers, but they didn't want to say it out loud.
The atmosphere had been destroyed. No matter how many funny stories and jokes were said, this banquet was doomed to be boring. After less than two hours, seeing that the moon was already in the middle of the sky, the Alliance of Offering Treasures and the people of White Emperor City bid farewell and returned to the accommodation prepared by Tianyi Palace.
There were many people in the Alliance of Offering Treasures, but most of them could only sit cross-legged. Only Fang Xing and the others had caves and palaces arranged by Tianyi Palace to stay. When Fang Xing returned to the palace arranged by Tianyi Palace on the mountainside, he found that the Third Aunt of Yaochi and the female disciples of Fuyao Palace were already waiting for him. The murderous and strange atmosphere on their faces made Lv Jinhong and Huo Tuotuo, who had sent him back, feel a little uncomfortable. After sending him to the front of the palace, they hurriedly said goodbye.
"Don't talk!"
He walked to the front of the palace and looked at the Fuyao Palace disciples crowding around him. He snorted coldly and ignored everyone else. He strode into the side palace. Instantly, the expressions of the Fuyao Palace disciples outside were filled with anger, and they were filled with rage.
At this time, in the side hall, the three Yaochi Immortal Nuns and a few female disciples of Fuyao Palace were sitting around. The atmosphere was terrible. These female disciples were the ones who wanted to assassinate Ye Huntian in a moment of desperation. After Fang Xing's shout destroyed their divine thoughts, they were restrained by the three Yaochi Immortal Nuns and brought here quietly. They were still worried, so they had been guarding them here personally.
"Oh, now you're being honest?"
Fang Xing walked in. He reeked of alcohol and sat lazily on the stone table.
"Why did you stop us just now?"
A girl raised her head. It was the disciple of Fuyao Palace named Pomelo. She looked at Fang Xing with a hint of annoyance.
Fang Xing did not reply and continued to look at her with a grin.
"I can't watch my sister suffer like that. I want to save her …" The more the female disciple spoke, the more agitated she became.
The more the female disciple spoke, the more agitated she became. She didn't seem to be venting her anger. Instead, she was expressing her attitude to Fang Xing and the three Fairy Ladies of the Jade Lake. Her eyes were filled with endless hatred. "Even if we die, we must save them and kill that beast …"
"That's right. I beg the three Immortal Nuns to help us. Don't stop us!"
The other female disciples also spoke in unison. They were all very agitated.
"If it's useful for you to die, I won't stop you!"
Fang Xing chuckled, but there was a hint of coldness in his voice. "Anyway, I'm not your biological father. You don't sleep with me at night, so I don't care whether you live or die. However, it's fine if you guys send yourselves to your deaths, but it won't do if you drag others into danger. Although you guys are stupid, you're not so stupid that you can't see the situation clearly. Where are we now? We're surrounded by a group of bastards and forces of the Shen Clan. Do you know what would have happened if I hadn't stopped you just now? "
He said lazily and unhurriedly, "First, you'll be killed on the spot by the masters of Tianyi Palace and White Emperor City. Then, more disciples of Fuyao Palace will jump out and follow you to die. We'll be completely exposed. The people of Tianyi Palace and White Emperor City will join forces to kill us. Those who we picked up along the way will also kill us to prove their innocence. As for Baek Ok-kyung not far away, the creatures of the Shen Clan stationed there will also arrive. In the end, all of you disciples of Fuyao Palace, even the three Immortal Nuns, will die in this battle. What's worse is that you won't be able to die. Like the others, you'll be locked in a cart and stripped naked …"
"Alas …"
In the end, he sighed and smiled. "Probably the only one who has a chance to escape is me!"
"You …"
Some of them were frightened by his words. Their faces were full of terror. They wanted to say something, but they had no way to refute him.
After all, they were not stupid. In fact, when they were stopped by Fang Xing, they already knew that what they did was extremely reckless. Now that they said those words, it was actually just to show Fang Xing and the three Immortal Nuns that they must save them!
"You … you're the First Situ of Fuyao Palace. If you can't even save people, what's the use of keeping you?"
In the silence, the female disciple called Pomelo was so angry that she suddenly said such a sentence.
Fang Xing's face suddenly darkened.
The surrounding atmosphere also became extremely awkward at this moment!
Even the three Immortal Nuns of Yaochi immediately looked at Pomelo, who spoke without thinking, and thought that she had gone too far.
After Pomelo said this, she obviously knew that what she said was wrong, but she refused to lower her head. She stubbornly raised her head.
"Hehe, that's right, I'm the First Situ, I owe you all!"
After a long time, the expected anger from Fang Xing did not appear. Instead, he laughed bitterly and said in a self-deprecating manner.
"We also know that we are in a dangerous situation now, so we can't act rashly. However, it is unbearable to see the disciples of Fu Yao Palace being humiliated like this. Grand Minister of Prime Minister, the three of us have discussed this. It is unwise to put so many people in danger for the sake of a few lost disciples. However, it is not human to ignore the lives of those disciples. How about this? You take most of the disciples and go according to the original plan. You cross the sea by deceiving everyone and enter the Devil's Abyss. Among the three of us, one will stay with a few disciples and try to rescue them. Then, we will go to meet you!"
Mu Xin Immortal saw Fang Xing's expression and could not bear it, so she said softly.
"That's right, I'm willing to stay behind to save them!"
"I'm willing too …"
The few female disciples of Fuyao Palace were overjoyed and fought to speak up, wanting to stay behind.
"Hehe, there's no need, the original plan is no longer feasible!"
Fang Xing sneered and said softly, "You guys don't need to stay behind either!"
"This …"
Mu Xin Immortal was startled and looked up at Fang Xing.
"Do you really think those people are fools, that I can fool them so easily?"
Fang Xing raised his head and looked at them mockingly. "When you tried to assassinate that guy surnamed Ye, he was already suspicious. Later on, he asked me a few questions. In fact, we didn't answer any of them directly, let alone convince him. Based on that guy's vigilance, even if he didn't guess your true identities, he must have guessed that your intentions were probably to seek refuge with the Shen Clan. As for that fatty from Tianyi Palace, I've dealt with him before. He looks like a stupid pig, but in fact, he's a smart pig …"
Fang Xing said softly, his face expressionless, "Now they should have begun to inquire about us, and even planted spies in our Treasure Offering Alliance to inquire about our background. When they understand our location, they will be even more suspicious. It is very likely that when we arrive at White Emperor City, they will immediately join forces with the God Race to take us down, hehe …"
"Then … then what should we do?"
The three Mu Xin Immortals were startled and looked up at Fang Xing.
Their cultivation was not low, but they rarely walked in the cultivation world, so they were far from being smart. At this time, they had no idea what to do.
Even the furious female disciples were dumbfounded at this time. They thought that the crisis of their unauthorized action had passed, but they did not expect that this was just the beginning, and the more dangerous situation was yet to come. For a moment, they were afraid, slightly apologetic, and full of doubt. They wondered if the other party had really found out, or if this unreliable big Situ was deliberately frightening them with frightening words.
"Why don't we rob the prisoner carriage now and escape immediately … What do you think?"
One of them, after hesitating for a long time, put forward such a suggestion.
"Believe it or not, now White Emperor City must be fully armed, waiting for you to come. Even Tianyi Palace should be ready!"
Fang Xing smiled noncommittally, his eyes full of sarcasm.
"Then … let's set off ahead of time and reach Baek Ok-kyung before White Emperor City, and carry out the original plan?"
Another person put forward a suggestion.
Fang Xing still sneered, "If Ye Huntian is only suspicious now, as long as we set off ahead of time, he will be completely sure!"
"Then … then what do you think we should do? Wait for death here?"
Pomelo was a little agitated again, and she spoke without thinking.
"Didn't you have a good idea when you took action? Think about it yourself …"
Fang Xing sneered, as if he did not care.
"You …"
The female disciples of Fuyao Palace were angry again, and they all looked at Fang Xing angrily.
"Well, Situ, don't tease them. If you have a way, say it!"
Mu Ci also sighed. She stopped Fang Xing and the other female disciples from arguing with each other and softly advised them.
"Of course I have a way. Otherwise, why did you ask me to be the big Situ?"
Fang Xing still said coldly, and his arrogant look made the female disciples of Fuyao Palace gnash their teeth with hatred.
"What way?"
On the other hand, the three nuns were overjoyed and hurriedly asked.
"Strike first and gain the upper hand!"
Fang Xing said lightly, and then became serious. His gaze swept across the three nuns and the female disciples, and he said seriously, "It doesn't matter if that bastard Ye suspects us. He is very suspicious, and before he gets the evidence, he should not take action so quickly. Otherwise, there is no need for him to drink with me without batting an eyelid after he became suspicious. This is exactly what we want. Let us dig a hole for him first. Now I have an idea, and I need three people to cooperate with me. One is a smart and capable person from the Alliance, one is not weak, and can listen to me, and the last one … is someone who is willing to risk everything, even if it means death …"
He pointed at himself, "Let me do the job of the smart and capable person from the Alliance!"
Then he pointed at Mu Xin, "You will be responsible for the second job!"
Finally, he looked at the most agitated Pomelo, "You will be responsible for the third job, how about it?"
"Uh … Why?"
His arrangements were too sudden, and most people didn't have time to react. After a long while, Mu Ci asked in a daze.
Fang Xing did not avoid her question, and looked at her directly, "Because I don't like you!"
