Seeing no response from Miao Yi after a while, Yan Xiu had no choice but to ask: Your Highness, they have already surrounded them. Second Master has become their hostage. What should we do?
Miao Yi: Yan Xiu … don't let them take Ba Jie away. Do you understand?
Yan Xiu was silent for a moment, then replied: Your Highness, I understand!
Miao Yi: The demonic monk didn't find out anything from Ba Jie, did he?
Yan Xiu: I don't think so. Second Master has only just fallen into their hands. He hasn't had the chance yet.
Miao Yi: I don't think we can keep the demonic monk here.
Yan Xiu understood what he meant. In exchange for Second Master's life, Your Highness might have to let the demonic monk go.
Miao Yi: That's why we can't let the demonic monk find out anything from Ba Jie. If he tries to investigate Ba Jie, you must stop him at all costs. Do you understand?
Yan Xiu naturally understood what he meant. As long as the demonic monk didn't find out anything from Ba Jie, there was still a chance he could make a deal with Your Highness. Once he did, Your Highness would never let the demonic monk go no matter what. That meant there would be no chance of a deal, and the other party wouldn't let Ba Jie go for nothing either. And Your Highness's' do whatever it takes' naturally included Ba Jie.
At this point, there were some things that only he could do. He couldn't wait for Your Highness to do it. Once Your Highness arrived, even if you found out that the demonic monk had found out about Ba Jie's secret, how could Your Highness just watch your brother die? Should the demonic monk let go or not? If he let go, some rumors wouldn't be able to cover up. If the southern army collapsed, how many people loyal to Your Highness would lose their families? If he didn't let go, Your Highness wouldn't be able to bear the consequences of killing your brother. How would Your Highness choose?
Yan Xiu: Understood.
Miao Yi: If you can wait for me to come, then wait. If not, do as you see fit.
Yan Xiu: Understood!
Miao Yi had a dejected look on his face as he put down the Star Bell. He was filled with a sense of helplessness. After giving Yan Xiu this order, even he himself was at a loss. Before this, he never thought that he would one day give the order to kill Ba Jie. He would never believe that he could give such an order.
A bitter smile crept onto his face. He even laughed at how Lord Guang and the others treated their daughters like gifts. Compared to them, how much better could he be?
At this moment, he finally understood the actions of Lord Guang and the others. Wasn't Guang Mei'er the most beloved daughter of Lord Guang? Yes, just like how he felt about Ba Jie.
Yan Xiu, who had kept the Star Bell, did not make any reaction, nor did he give any orders. His gaze swept across the crowd, wanting to see which one of them was Demon Monk Nan Bo. Unfortunately, these people were all wearing masks, so he could not tell.
Seeing that he was heavily surrounded, Nan Bo knew that he would not be able to escape even if he used the Life Seeking Brahman Chant. The grievance in his heart was indescribable. What did it mean to fail miserably in an easy task? Today, he finally experienced it. Just because he was chasing these two fellows, he actually fell into a trap because of his carelessness. This wasn't a trap. A trap couldn't trap him. Instead, he was defeated by an accident. Man proposes, God disposes. How could he go and reason with this?
However, he was unwilling to give up. His gaze landed on Grandmaster Qi Jie, and he laughed loudly. "Great monk, I didn't expect to meet you again so soon after we parted ways in the valley. Do you want to save the little monk? If you want to save them, make them get out of the way! "
Yan Xiu and the others immediately focused their attention on him, guessing that he was Nan Bo.
Grandmaster Qi Jie pressed his palms together and said, "Amitabha. Nanbo, don't kill anymore. Let them go!"
Nan Bo said, "Hehe! Great monk, are you joking? Could it be that all the years of cultivating Buddhism had gone to waste? If I let them go, can you make them let us go in return? I'm afraid that the moment I let them go, my people will immediately die without a grave. Where has your benevolence gone, great monk? If you want to let them go, then do as I say. Make them back off. I will naturally let them go when I reach a safe place. "
Grandmaster Qi Jie looked at Yan Xiu, only to see that Yan Xiu and the others were all expressionless. He recalled that all of their senses had been sealed, so he had no idea what they were talking about. He immediately took out the Star Bell and contacted Miao Yi. Miao Yi rejected the call with a single word, saying that he couldn't accept orders from the Sovereign outside. Yan Xiu was in charge of the situation here.
Grandmaster Qi Jie had no choice but to take out a jade archive and write something down for Yan Xiu to read.
After reading it, no matter how much Yan Xiu respected Grandmaster Qi Jie, he couldn't help but look at Grandmaster Qi Jie like he was looking at an idiot. Yan Xiu didn't bother arguing with Qi Jie, and simply invoked his arts to say, "I don't trust him. As long as Grandmaster can convince him to let them go first, I will let them go."
'He must be crazy to let them go first.'
Grandmaster Qi Jie immediately felt helpless, and continued to argue with Nan Bo.
Ba Jie was speechless as he watched the scene unfold before him. In his heart, he cursed the old bald donkey for being so nosy. 'If you could win a debate, you wouldn't have nearly taken that demonic monk as your master all those years ago. Can't you see that your forces are waiting for Big Brother?'
Alas, he couldn't use his transcendence energy, so no one could hear what he said here. He could only glare at Qi Jie. Given the current situation, he managed to calm down. As long as Big Brother's forces could control the situation, everything would be fine. He believed that Big Brother would definitely have a way to save him. He even smiled at Mu Na from time to time, trying to comfort her.
As Nan Bo and Grandmaster Qi Jie continued to argue, Zuo 'er suddenly transmitted her voice to Nan Bo, "Senior, these two people seem to be really important to Niu Youde. We might still be able to survive!"
Nan Bo was taken aback. He quickly looked around and saw that the army surrounding them had their Transcendence Bows ready. They simply waited, and no one made a move.
The encirclement and the encirclement were in a strange stalemate. Only then did Nan Bo realize what was going on. 'That's right. I've already been captured. Logically speaking, they shouldn't have let me go. There's no reason for them not to kill me. The only reason is because they have two hostages in their hands.'
Nan Bo began to size Ba Jie up. Even though he knew that Ba Jie and Miao Yi had a close relationship, he thought that it was only a matter of how they addressed each other. He couldn't tell that they were related by blood. He really didn't think that Ba Jie could compare to him, who had already been captured.
Now, he began to ponder the situation. Ba Jie could tell from Nan Bo's reaction that he was in trouble. As expected, Nan Bo waved his hand, and the person holding Ba Jie immediately brought him over.
Nan Bo then waved his arm, and a dazzling golden divine soul emerged from his body. He was about to place it on Ba Jie's head to investigate the relationship between Ba Jie and Miao Yi.
Yan Xiu's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect that he would have to make such a difficult decision again. He abruptly shouted, "Demonic monk, I advise you not to touch him. Everything can be discussed after our Lord arrives. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Nan Bo revealed a smile and probed, "Is that so? He's in my hands. I don't believe that any of you would dare to touch him! "He continued to place his hand on Ba Jie's head.
At this moment, Ba Jie realized that he was in deep trouble. He knew what the demonic monk was trying to do, and he knew that he was going to bring his Big Brother a great deal of trouble.
Even though Yan Xiu didn't know what the other party was talking about, he could roughly guess what it was. "Then why don't you give it a try?!"
The surrounding Transcendence Bows immediately glowed brightly as they drew their bowstrings and aimed at the demonic monk and the others, displaying their formidable might.
It was obvious that everything would be over once Yan Xiu's hand came down.
Sensing the coldness in Yan Xiu's gaze, Nan Bo's hand froze in mid-air, not daring to act recklessly.
Zuo Er and the others began to panic as well. They softly pleaded, "Senior, it's not the end yet. We still have a chance …"
"No! No! Who was the one who raised his hand? Who are you? Have you asked my Big Brother? Have you asked my Big Brother? Have you asked your Lord's orders?! Master, hurry up and stop him. Don't let him do as he pleases … "Ba Jie saw that the arrow was already nocked on the bowstring and was about to be released at any moment. The memory of that terrifying combined attack was still fresh in Ba Jie's mind. He knew that once the arrow was released, neither he nor Mu Na would survive. He anxiously shouted, but no one could understand what he was saying. Yan Xiu was wearing a mask, so Ba Jie couldn't recognize him either.
Grandmaster Qi Jie was also anxious. He quickly pressed his palms together and begged Yan Xiu to stop. When he remembered that Yan Xiu couldn't hear him, he wrote something on a jade archive for Yan Xiu to read.
Yan Xiu glanced at it and roughly guessed what the old monk had written. Without even looking at it, he tilted his head and gestured to the people at the side. Immediately, someone moved to restrain Qi Jie and kept him in their pockets.
Most of Miao Yi's personal guards knew Yan Xiu's identity and status in the Prince's Residence. To a certain extent, his attitude represented the Prince's.
Seeing that even Grandmaster Qi Jie had been captured, Ba Jie was scared out of his wits. He screamed in a frenzy.
Mu Na was scared out of her wits when she saw Ba Jie in this state. She said to Ba Jie, "I'm scared!" However, Ba Jie couldn't hear her, and he couldn't care less about her right now. She bit her lip weakly and kept quiet.
In the end, Nan Bo didn't dare to act rashly anymore. He recalled how he really didn't care about the lives of the two hostages during the first round of shooting. After a moment of hesitation, he slowly retracted his hand and lowered it.
Both Zuo Er and Yan Xiu secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Yan Xiu slowly lowered his hand as well, and the radiance of the Transcendence Bow around him gradually receded.
Both sides fell into a stalemate. They waited, and waited.
After waiting for almost a day, Miao Yi finally arrived. The people Yan Xiu had sent to greet them along the route brought Miao Yi and his group over.
After instructing Bluemoon and the others to seal off their senses, Miao Yi activated the Fiery Star Technique. A layer of invisible ripples enveloped his body.
The surrounding troops parted to form a path for Miao Yi to enter. The Commanding Heavenly King's arrival shocked everyone present, and everyone immediately regained their senses.
Yan Xiu quickly stepped forward to greet him, then transmitted his voice over to explain the situation. He then pointed to the surrounded Nan Bo, indicating that he was the demonic monk Nan Bo.
Miao Yi floated to the front of the formation and locked gazes with Nan Bo. Both of them were brimming with killing intent!
Miao Yi then shifted his gaze to Ba Jie, only to see an ecstatic expression on Ba Jie's face as he shouted at him.
Miao Yi's gaze slowly fell on Mu Na's face, and he couldn't help but frown. 'She's actually the Fairy Race's Saintess?'
He had seen Mu Na before. The Fairy Race had a unique appearance, and it was hard to forget her. He couldn't figure out how Mu Na had managed to get along with Ba Jie.
"Niu Youde, Heavenly King Niu. You're finally here!" Nan Bo sneered as he gnashed his teeth in hatred.
