"What are you waiting for?" Sikong Wuwei stomped his feet. "Let's go!"
"Go where? Why don't you bring up the rear? "Miao Yi retorted.
"Uhh …" Sikong Wuwei looked at the silent Zhao Fei, then at Qi Xiuhong, Pi Junzi, and Tao Yongchun. He was a little speechless. He finally understood why Miao Yi hadn't left yet.
They didn't have mounts right now, so it was unrealistic for them to escape on land. Even if they had mounts, it would be difficult for them to outrun the Crystal-Armored Hurricane Beasts. Escaping to the sea was not a bad idea, but they would have to abandon some people. He didn't care about the two demons, but Miao Yi might not be willing to abandon Qi Xiuhong.
The reality was that they couldn't escape on land without mounts. If they ran on the sea, Sikong Wuwei and Zhao Fei would only be able to drag Miao Yi along. If they dragged too many people, they wouldn't be able to run fast, and they would definitely be caught. This was indeed troublesome.
"Are we supposed to fight them to the death?" Sikong Wuwei sighed.
"Get ready …" Miao Yi muttered to the others.
As soon as they reached the shore, the three of them quickly summoned their Crystal-Armored Hurricane Beasts and mounted them. Tan Lao said solemnly, "They should be here."
With a flip of his hand, he took out his bronze-colored flute and placed it by his lips, letting out a piercing sound. A flock of birds quickly flew out of the forest and circled above a certain area up ahead.
When the others in hiding saw the birds in the sky, their expressions changed. Sikong Wuwei cursed, "What kind of sorcery is this? Why are the birds on the island helping them as well?"
Tan Lao tucked his flute away and pointed to the area where the birds were circling. "They're there."
"Let's go!" Gu Sanzheng waved his hand. The three Crystal-Armored Hurricane Beasts rushed up a hill and came to an emergency stop. They saw a lone rider on the opposite side of the hill. The rider was fully armored, with a spear in one hand and the Mystic Yin Mirror in the other. Who else could it be but Miao Yi?
At this moment, the distance between the two sides was less than four hundred meters. They were within the attack range of the Mystic Yin Mirror. The three of them were shocked. Tan Lao's protective sawtooth shield immediately moved, ready to block the Mystic Yin Mirror's attack for the three of them at any moment.
"I have been waiting here for a long time!" Miao Yi said with a smile.
Clang! Clang! He unsheathed the Thunderclap Flying Swords and Ye Xin's whip. Ready to attack at any moment.
Miao Yi raised his spear and said, "Hold it for a moment. Let me finish talking first before you attack!"
Ye Xin sneered, "What else is there to say? You sure have guts to fight us alone. Today will be the day you die."
Miao Yi laughed heartily and said, "I advise all of you not to act rashly. Otherwise, it's hard to say who will be the one to die. I hope the three of you won't let me down! "
The three of them quickly looked around. The other party knew that he wasn't a match for the three of them, but he still dared to come out alone. This was strange in itself, especially when the two helpers weren't around.
Gu Sanzheng asked calmly, "Where are your two helpers? Why didn't you ask him to lend you a hand? "In reality, he was probing Miao Yi's strength, because he knew Miao Yi wasn't as simple as he seemed.
"I have come alone to welcome the three of you. I only wish to express my sincerity and hope that we can put aside our grudges for now." Miao Yi said with a sincere expression, "It has only been three years since the Sea of Constellations Subjugation Crusade, and the future is fraught with danger. Why don't we join hands to overcome the difficulties and dangers together? With our strength, if we work together, we will have a bright future ahead of us! "
Tan Lao scoffed disdainfully, "You're already at death's door, and you're still trying to talk your way out of this!"
Miao Yi reminded, "I'll say it again. If we really fight, it's hard to say who will be the one to die."
Gu Sanzheng swept his gaze across their surroundings and asked, "With just those two helpers of yours lying in ambush?" He was still probing Miao Yi's strength. He didn't believe that someone as smart as Miao Yi would purposely throw his life away.
"That's strange. I've already expressed my sincerity in negotiating with you. Why do you insist on seeing my helpers?" Miao Yi asked with an amused look on his face.
Ye Xin understood Gu Sanzheng's intentions as well, so she tried to goad him into action. "I think his two helpers must have thought that his cultivation was too low and that he would only be a burden. That's why they abandoned him and ran away. "
Tan Lao nodded and said, "That's right. This bastard might be trying to trick us. Why don't we kill him first?"
"You don't have to goad me. I don't fight battles that I'm not confident in winning. You just want to see my helpers, right?! "Miao Yi suddenly shouted," Brothers, come out and show them! "
Four people leaped out from the mountainside behind Miao Yi. Naturally, they were Zhao Fei, Sikong Wuwei, Pi Junzi, and Tao Yongchun.
Qi Xiuhong didn't come out. More importantly, the other party should know about her background. She wouldn't be able to scare them even if she came out.
'Why are there two more of them? ' Gu Sanzheng and the others felt their eyelids twitching. Back on that Flaming Island, only Miao Yi's group of three had leaped out. They didn't see Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun cowering to the side. Even if they did, they wouldn't know much about them.
They had seen the Spirit Illusion Greatsword in Zhao Fei's hands and the Mountain Suppressing Hammer in Sikong Wuwei's hands before. However, they had never seen the black crescent moon on Pi Junzi's shoulder or the black pagoda in Tao Yongchun's hands before. These two items were clearly no ordinary weapons. With a single glance, they could tell that they were transcendent artifacts that could transform as well.
"Zhao Fei is wielding the Spirit Illusion Greatsword, and Sikong Wuwei is wielding the Mountain Suppressing Hammer. Let me introduce the other two to you. The one carrying the Heaven and Earth Transcendence Wheel is called Pi Junzi, and the one holding the Demon Sealing Pagoda is called Tao Yongchun. They are my new friends from the Yao race. It might be an exaggeration to say that Brother Pi's Heaven and Earth Transcendence Wheel has the power to split the heavens and split the earth, but it is still powerful enough to split mountains. Once Brother Tao's Demon Sealing Pagoda appears, any cultivator trapped inside will die. "
Gu Sanzheng and the others were secretly shocked when they heard this. How did this bastard have so many transcendent artifacts by his side?
Halfway up the mountain, Zhao Fei and Sikong Wuwei were expressionless. The latter was laughing so hard that his stomach was about to cramp.
Meanwhile, Pi Junzi and Tao Yongchun were terrified. Their legs were a little weak, and they prayed in their hearts that a fight wouldn't break out.
The transcendent artifacts in their hands weren't transcendent artifacts at all. They were nothing more than temporary artifacts that had been polished out of stone and dyed a little. They couldn't be any more fake. How could they not feel guilty when they thought they were blind?
However, Miao Yi said that they needed to have the confidence to negotiate. If he insisted on doing it this way, the two of them couldn't do anything about it.
Zhao Fei even tried to stop Miao Yi and said, "It's fine if you want to do it this way, but you don't have to get too close. It'll be easier to deal with if anything happens."
However, Miao Yi said that they needed to be confident in order to intimidate the other party. If they still hid far away with so many transcendent artifacts, wouldn't it be suspicious?
They had also discussed their escape route. If a fight broke out, Miao Yi would immediately use the Mystic Yin Mirror within the effective range of his attack to assist Zhao Fei's Spirit Illusion Greatsword and Sikong Wuwei's Mountain Suppressing Hammer. Meanwhile, Pi Junzi, Tao Yongchun, and Qi Xiuhong would immediately run in another direction. Miao Yi and the others would still retreat to the sea. Gu Sanzheng and the others would probably still chase after Miao Yi.
"As for the Mystic Yin Mirror in my hand, I believe I don't need to introduce it. The Spirit Illusion Greatsword, Mountain Suppressing Hammer, Heaven and Earth Transcendence Wheel, Demon Sealing Pagoda, and the Mystic Yin Mirror. With these five transcendent artifacts working together, would I be able to take on the three of you?" Miao Yi asked with a smile.
Gu Sanzheng and the others exchanged glances. Just the Spirit Illusion Greatsword and Mountain Suppressing Hammer alone were enough to suppress them. Now that the Heaven and Earth Transcendence Wheel, Demon Sealing Pagoda, and the Mystic Yin Mirror were of unknown power, their side would definitely lose. No wonder this bastard was so confident.
Miao Yi sighed again and said, "I'll say it again. I came here alone to show my sincerity. I don't want to intimidate you with force. That's why I told them to hide for now."
Ye Xin stubbornly said, "Intimidate you with force? We've been killing our way here. How can we be intimidated? Go ahead and try! "
Although she sounded unyielding, she was actually feeling a little fearful. If not for her fear, she would have already made her move instead of letting Miao Yi try.
Miao Yi's heart brightened. He knew that the three of them wouldn't dare to act recklessly now.
"Alright. You guys sure are capable. You're practically like ghosts that won't go away. Since you've chased me all the way here without letting me go, I'll just take it that I'm afraid of you, alright? If I admit defeat now, you'll be the best, alright? " Miao Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He sighed and said, "I won't hide it from you guys. Just now, my brothers said that since you insist on making life difficult for me, then I'll just kill you all and take your transcendent artifacts. However, I believe that the losses outweigh the gains. That's right! I know you want to kill me, but I still believe that I should try my best. Because even if we kill the three of you and take your transcendent artifacts, we'll only have three more transcendent artifacts in our storage rings. Are the eight transcendent artifacts more powerful when wielded by five people or eight people? If we form an alliance and combine our eight transcendent artifacts, not only will we be able to do as we please in the Sea of Constellations, but there will also be few who can stop us. We'll definitely be ranked within the top one hundred of the Subjugation Crusade. Are the three of you really not going to consider forming an alliance with us? "
Tan Lao laughed coldly and said, "You killed the grandson of our Elder Wu and so many disciples of our three major sects. And you still want to form an alliance?"
"Your Elder Wu's grandson is relying on his background. He's just a lowly Cave Abode pawn, and yet he dares to act so impudently towards me. Even if I don't get rid of such a petty person in the administration, there will still be others who will deal with him. That Elder Wu is even crazier. How could he place his personal grudges above the interests of the sect? And you still want to avenge him? The disciples of your three major sects aren't any good either. I lowered myself to befriend them, and they think I'm afraid of them? They're so arrogant just because they're disciples of the three major sects. They even dared to bully me on the ship and threatened me without any scruples. They even said that they would kill me once we reached the Sea of Constellations. As expected, they immediately attacked me as soon as we got off the ship. Don't tell me I'm going to wait for them to kill me if I don't kill them?
The three of them fell silent. Even though they didn't witness what happened, based on their understanding of their fellow disciples, they knew that it was most likely true.
Ye Xin said indifferently, "Are you saying that the disciples of our three major sects died for nothing?"
