"As expected, they still have to send a few people out," Lu Xiaotian appeared from behind a tree after seeing the three Evil Spirit Valley cultivators come out from the grotto. Looking at their departing figures, he frowned slightly. The Evil Spirit Valley cultivators did not look panicked when they left. Clearly, the situation in the grotto was not bad for them. On the contrary, it was not bad for the Evil Spirit Valley cultivators, but not for the Divine Firmament Palace.
However, he did not know how Oh Yeon and the others were doing in the grotto. If Wu Yan's team was unable to successfully obtain the Violet Ginseng, then with his own strength, the chances of him obtaining it would be next to nothing. Although he had chosen to leave the team earlier, it did not mean that he did not want the Violet Ginseng.
He would wait and see. If the situation permitted, he would rescue Oh Yeon and the others and get them out of trouble. If things did not work out, he could only protect himself.
"Let's follow these people and see what they are up to." Lu Xiaotian made up his mind and secretly followed them.
"Yu Liufeng is really flirtatious. She's flirting with Senior Brother Ye in front of his Dao companion. Junior Brother Zhao is really a coward. I can't believe he can stand it," a vulgar-looking cultivator said with a smirk.
"Junior Brother Zhao's strength is not even comparable to Yu Liufeng's. Naturally, he can't control her. Many female cultivators in our team have a crush on Senior Brother Ye. Yu Liufeng is good-looking. If she relies on Senior Brother Ye, she will get more Spirit Herbs. Who knows, she might be able to get enough Spirit Herbs to exchange for Foundation Establishment Elixirs. Compared to Foundation Establishment, a Dao companion is nothing," another cultivator said, curling his lips.
"Shut up. I brought you guys out to scout the enemy, not to gossip," the cultivator surnamed Liu scolded.
"Senior Brother Liu is right. However, the Divine Firmament Palace cultivators are surrounded by a large group of snakes in front of them. Behind them are Senior Brother Ye's array formation. Coupled with the other Senior Brothers' ambush, they will not be able to escape even if they have wings," the vulgar-looking cultivator said.
Another cultivator agreed, "Even if we give them wings, how can they fly in that rock cave?"
"The cultivators from Divine Firmaments Palace will not be able to escape. I'm just worried that the cultivators from the other sects will come and mess things up. If we end up being deceived, we will end up in the same predicament as them. You two, don't try to be sneaky. Be careful and pay attention to your surroundings. Also, collect some food and send it to Senior Brother Ye and the others. It seems that the people of the Divine Cloud Palace can still hold on for a few more days. We have to be prepared for a long siege. " Just as Cultivator Liu was about to reprimand the two of them, the hairs on his back suddenly stood on end as he felt an immense sense of crisis. "Who is it!"
At the same time, the cultivator surnamed Liu took out a small yellow shield and placed it in front of his back.
Bang! A small green magic artifact blade struck the small yellow shield, but it only paused for a moment. The enormous force of the impact sent the cultivator surnamed Liu flying backwards.
"Celestial device! You're a cultivator from the Divine Cloud Palace!" The cultivator surnamed Liu's eyes widened. Just as he was about to make a move, the green knife had already pierced through the small yellow shield, which was full of cracks, and pierced through his chest. The cultivator surnamed Liu's body stagnated and he fell to the ground, dead.
Run! The cultivator surnamed Liu was unexpectedly killed by a sneak attack without being able to put up any resistance. The other two cultivators were horrified and fled in different directions without saying anything.
"Can you escape?" Lu Xiaotian stretched out his hand and pointed. The small green knife drew an arc in the air and caught up with the other cultivator. It quickly wrapped around his neck and a head flew into the sky.
Lu Xiaotian called back his flying knife and used the Wind-riding Technique to catch up with the last wretched cultivator. The fight just now had only lasted for a moment. Soon, he was in front of the wretched cultivator.
"Spare, spare my life. I'll give you whatever you want." The wretched cultivator begged incoherently.
"If I kill you, your things will be mine." Lu Xiaotian took out the small green knife again.
The wretched cultivator shouted and threw out a gourd, releasing a stinky black fog.
Lu Xiaotian coldly snorted and stretched out his hand. The small green knife turned into a stream of light, passing through the black fog and heading straight for the wretched cultivator.
"I'll fight you to the death!" The wretched cultivator clenched his teeth and took out two small green beads. At the same time, his body retreated. But the small green knife had already closed in on him.
Boom, boom, two explosions sounded. Lu Xiaotian hurriedly put out a protective spiritual barrier and retreated, but he was still affected by the aftermath of the explosion. The wretched cultivator was cut in two by the knife. Lu Xiaotian stretched out his hand to call back the small green knife, but found that the small green knife didn't listen to him and flew back shakily.
"The foul air produced by the explosion of the green beads is actually so strong!" Lu Xiaotian was shocked. He checked the small green knife and sighed in relief. The small green knife was a magic tool after all, its spirituality wasn't damaged. It just needed to be refined again. If it was an ordinary supreme-grade spirit tool, it probably wouldn't be able to withstand such strong corrosion.
He then thought of the other two people. They died too quickly and didn't even have time to use their skills before losing their lives. After rummaging through the spiritual items and weapons left behind by the two people, he found two small green beads in the storage bag of the leader, Liu. Lu Xiaotian was overjoyed. This thing could actually affect magic tools temporarily. It would definitely be very useful in a battle later. After all, even the elite disciples of other sects rarely had so many magic tools like him.
"According to what those cultivators said, Oh Yeon and the rest must have been trapped in the rock cave by the cultivators of the Evil Spirit Valley. However, these people were only at the Qi Refinement Realm. They would definitely need to eat, and the food in their storage bags wouldn't last forever. Just like what these people had said, they would definitely send people out to look for food, or guard against other cultivators from other sects who might be the oriole behind them. If the cultivators of the Evil Spirit Valley were on guard against Oh Yeon and the rest, they wouldn't send too many people out. Even two or three people wouldn't be a match for me. As long as I can guard outside and kill the cultivators sent out by the Evil Spirit Valley, they wouldn't be able to hold on for long. "
"The key is to see if Oh Yeon and the rest can hold on." Lu Xiaotian's mind raced as he weighed the pros and cons. This was all he could do. If the situation permitted, it was fine for him to lend a helping hand. However, Lu Xiaotian wouldn't gamble with his life.
After incinerating the corpses with small fireballs, Lu Xiaotian returned to the vicinity of the grotto to continue his surveillance. An hour later, he used the same method to kill two more people. By then, the sky had already darkened.
