"If you want to steal food from the tiger's mouth, you'll have to see if our weapons agree." Luo Yuan stepped forward and glared at the eccentric.
Zhang Guang had been ambushed by them once before and almost lost his life. He already hated the eccentric to the bone. "That's right, we have one more person. If we really fight, we won't necessarily be afraid of you despicable people."
Wang Yuan and the others all held their weapons and waited solemnly. They had all used up a lot of Yuan Qi. If they didn't band together, they would die even faster. Also, other than the eccentric to the sixth layer, there were only two fifth layer qi practitioners. Their overall cultivation was lower than theirs, so they might not necessarily lose.
"If that's the case, then we might have to fight. Eccentric, what else is there to say? The Silver Winged Centipede is already dead, but there might be more eggs in the cave. Let's kill these ignorant people first and then go into the centipede cave. "
The large man in embroidered clothing behind the eccentric laughed. He held a spiked club and slapped the spirit beast pouch at his waist. Within the white mist, a black giant ape that was nearly ten feet tall was excitedly slapping its thick chest with its two large palms, making 'peng peng' sounds.
"That's right, these people have been in the mountain for more than a month. They must have a lot of spirit items in their storage pouches." The others all agreed.
The eccentric to the eccentric laughed and stared at Fan Qing, "If that's the case, then let's kill! Blood Hand Daoist, it looks like we'll have to fight today. "
"You've gone too far!" Wang Yuan was a woman, yet she was unable to restrain her rage at this moment, and she entered into battle with the large man in embroidered clothes who held a spiked club and a black ape. She actually didn't fall into a disadvantageous position even when fighting one against two.
Wang Ping, Zhang Guang, and the others all found their opponents.
Luo Yuan and He Luozi charged at a pair of twins with blue birthmarks on their faces. But just as Luo Yuan was about to slash at one of the twins, He Luozi suddenly turned his head. Hunchback He, who was behind him, suddenly revealed a ferocious expression. The spirit sword in his hand suddenly pierced towards Luo Yuan's back.
Although Luo Yuan felt a sharp Qi coming towards him, he couldn't dodge it in time because the distance was too close. In a hurry, he used his fastest speed to cast an "Earth Armor Technique!"
However, before the earth armor was formed, the sword in Hunchback He's hand had almost touched Luo Yuan's skin.
"Idiot, your side is the one with fewer people. Die!" Hunchback He's aura suddenly exploded from his body. He was also in the sixth layer of Qi Refining, but he had used some unknown method to hide his true cultivation level.
"Brother Luo!" Zhang Guang and Zheng Shiqi exclaimed in shock.
"Big Brother!" Luo Qing's beautiful face turned pale. For a moment, she was so shocked that she didn't know what to do.
However, at this time, no one noticed that Lu Xiaotian had disappeared without a trace.
Whoosh! Suddenly, a person emerged from the ground. It was Lu Xiaotian, who had disappeared for a moment.
Lu Xiaotian had a cold smile on his face. Under Hunchback He's shocked gaze, he waved the short sword in his hand. Since Hunchback He had used the same move, he was unable to dodge in time. He only tilted his body slightly to the side, slightly exposing his vital parts.
"My arm!" Following Hunchback He's blood-curdling scream, the arm holding the sword flew into the air with a large amount of blood.
Hunchback He hastily retreated a few dozen feet. He quickly took out a bottle of healing Dan and swallowed one. Then, he looked at Lu Xiaotian with a face full of disbelief and hatred. "How did you target me?"
The large eccentric and the others also stopped what they were doing and looked at Lu Xiaotian with disbelief. They had used the same method to attack the other two adventure teams, but Lu Xiaotian had seen through them.
"Early on in Full Moon City, I felt that something was wrong. You are a fourth layer Qi Refining cultivator and your cultivation level isn't high. Not only do you have the recipe for the Essence Qi Pill. You also have information about the Silver Winged Centipede. You are also very familiar with the route into the mountains. This doesn't seem like something a fourth layer Qi Refining cultivator can do. However, at this time, I only had some suspicions. "
"Later on, when we were attacked by the Green Bamboo Bees, although I was suspicious, there were too many teams with bad intentions in the Full Moon Mountain Range, so I didn't suspect you. However, when we arrived here, the large eccentric and the same team appeared, so I couldn't help but be suspicious. I think that if a few more people in our team were stung by the Green Bamboo Bees, you would have already attacked. "
"It's just that the large eccentric saw that only one of us was injured and our strength wasn't seriously damaged, so you didn't want to fight to the point where both sides were injured. Therefore, you changed your plan and waited for us to fight with the Silver Winged Centipede before coming out to take advantage of the situation and kill us. Is that right?"
Lu Xiaotian said coldly. He originally didn't want to speak so much nonsense, but Luo Yuan, Wang Yuan, and the other team members had already expended a lot of Essence Qi. At this time, the traitor, Hunchback He, appeared in the team. The hearts of the people were uncertain, so he had to first calm the hearts of the other people in the team. Otherwise, once the hearts of the people scattered, there would be no need to fight at all. They would just have to run for their lives.
"If I knew this would happen, I would have killed this traitor with one strike." Zhang Guang angrily waved the spirit saber in his hand.
Luo Yuan said with a solemn expression, "Brother Lu, Brother Lu, I owe you my life."
"You gave me a fright just now. I originally thought that we would have wasted our time entering the mountain, but it turns out that Lu Daoyou already had the pearl of wisdom in his hand."
Wang Yuan giggled. Although Hunchback He was one less person, Lu Xiaotian's calmness infected them.
"After saying so much, you're now one less person. Although Hunchback He lost an arm and has a certain impact on his battle, the bleeding has stopped, so the impact isn't too great." The large man in embroidered clothes waved his wolf-fanged club and said eerily.
"Is that so?"
Lu Xiaotian sneered. If it was a normal mortal martial artist, their battle prowess would be greatly reduced after suffering such a heavy injury. Cultivators would be less affected. Hunchback He had hidden his cultivation level before and was only at the sixth layer of Qi Practitioner. He only needed to cast spells from the side to be able to fight against Luo Qing or Wang Ping and gain the upper hand. The situation was still unfavorable for them, but how could he not have a backup plan?
"Ah!" Hunchback He had just used a spirit pill to stop the bleeding when a sudden wave of pain exploded from his chest. His entire face turned green.
"The sword, there's poison on the sword. You're so despicable!"
Hunchback He's expression was extremely ugly. The eyes he looked at Lu Xiaotian with were about to spit fire. If looks could kill, then Lu Xiaotian would have been killed countless times already. After his anger subsided, Hunchback He quickly took out all the antidotes he had on him from his storage pouch and crazily poured them into his mouth. However, this was of no use. Lu Xiaotian had smeared many strong poisons on the sword. In just a moment, Hunchback He's eyes turned white and he fell to the ground, twitching in pain.
"Compared to you wanting to kill our entire team, why can't we fight back?" Wang Ping waved his staff and chuckled. "Fellow Daoist Lu, you've done well. I, Wang Mou, am sincerely convinced."
"This young man is a very good alchemist. He seems to have a lot of Qi Gathering Pills on him. He used them to exchange for large amounts of Spirit Grass and Spirit Stones. He has the most Spirit Stones in the team. According to my estimation, the Spirit Stones, Spirit Grass, and Qi Gathering Pills on him are worth at least two hundred Spirit Stones."
Hunchback He held a grudge and said something extremely unfavorable to Lu Xiaotian. As expected, once Hunchback He's words left his mouth, the brocade-robed man and the others all looked at Lu Xiaotian with greedy eyes.
The large man nodded and took two steps forward. He said in a sinister tone, "Now that we have the same number of people, you are a good young man. However, do you think I can't see through your method of stalling for time? It seems that you haven't seen my methods. "
Lu Xiaotian's face turned ugly. If he had known earlier, he would have ended his life with one strike. The only reason he kept Hunchback He alive was because he wanted to use his injuries and their conversation to buy some time for Luo Yuan and the others to recover. It really was going for wool and coming home shorn.
The large man slapped the black gourd on his waist. With a buzzing sound, a large group of green flying ants rushed out. There were more than a hundred of them. Because they were close to each other, when these small green ants flew out, they gave off a feeling of covering the sky and covering the earth.
"Shadow Ants!" Wang Yuan and the others cried out in shock. Their faces were pale. Even a late stage Qi Refinement cultivator would have to be careful when facing such a large number of Shadow Ants. Insect cultivators often had an advantage over cultivators of the same level.
"Hehe, at least you know what's good for you." The large man laughed strangely. The Shadow Ants under his command were divided into several groups. Each group had ten Shadow Ants, and the leading Shadow Ant was obviously larger in size.
The large man seemed to be only able to control seven groups of Shadow Ants. The rest of the Shadow Ants flew around like locusts.
Lu Xiaotian didn't expect to meet a fellow Shadow Ant Rearing Expert. However, the large man's control of the Shadow Ants was clearly better than his. Seven groups of Shadow Ants surrounded him from several directions. Lu Xiaotian used a Fireball Technique, but it was blocked by the leading ant. Although the leading ant kept squeaking and swaying in the air, it wasn't dead. However, the other groups of Shadow Ants surrounded him from other directions.
After a short moment of stupor, Lu Xiaotian sneered in his heart. The Shadow Ants' lethality was secondary. The key was that these small flying ants were more durable than the Green Bamboo Bees. Moreover, after a few stings, one's Essence would be unable to circulate smoothly. This was fatal in a battle of magical powers. Perhaps the Shadow Ants were a huge threat to others, but to him, they were only slightly more troublesome.
As Lu Xiaotian pulled out his spirit sword, he grabbed an antidote pill with his left hand and was about to stuff it into his mouth. But at this moment, something unexpected happened. As the leader of the small group, Fan Qing, the main force of the battle, actually abandoned them and ran away.
Fan Qing's escape in the face of battle was after careful consideration. He had fought with the large man a few times before, but he couldn't gain the upper hand. He knew how powerful the large man was. Moreover, many of his Spirit Tools were destroyed and his Essence Qi was less than thirty percent. He wasn't a match for the large man at all. Although Lu Xiaotian was scheming, he was still too young and might not be able to defeat the large man. Even if he could barely hold on, their chances of winning wouldn't be more than half.
More importantly, he had already collected the last Rank Two Yao Core that the Barbarian Beast Sect had requested. He had already collected all of them. As long as he returned to Full Moon City, he could join the Sect. He wouldn't have to risk his life in the Full Moon Mountain Range.
"Shameless!" Lu Xiaotian, Luo Yuan, and the others cursed in unison. They were already at a disadvantage, and now that Fan Qing was gone, it was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
"Our strength was already greatly reduced, and now we have two less people. We can't win, I'll retreat first!"
Wang Yuan originally wanted to fight, but now the situation had taken a turn for the worse. After weighing the pros and cons in her heart, she felt that the chances of winning were close to zero. She quickly made a decision. After forcing back the large man in embroidered clothes, she stuck a "Wood Escape Talisman" on her body and jumped into a big tree. Her figure instantly disappeared. In the blink of an eye. She arrived near another big tree and then disappeared into the weeds.
Immediately after, Wang Ping's expression changed. He also used the Imperial Wind Technique to run away.
"Where do you think you're going?" An old man from the other side held two swords and chased after him.
"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, what do you think we should do?" Wu Guang, Luo Yuan, and the others looked anxious. The situation had already deteriorated to the point where it couldn't get any worse. The remaining people trusted Lu Xiaotian very much. Those like Wang Yuan and Wang Ping, who were scheming in their hearts, had already escaped without a trace.
"We only have a few people left. What can we do? Let's all escape. Whether we live or die is up to fate."
Lu Xiaotian said coldly and turned around to escape. He wasn't a heartless person. As long as it was within his power, he would lend a helping hand to Luo Yuan and the others.
However, after Fan Qing, Wang Yuan, and the others fled separately, the big man in front of him looked at him strangely. Eccentric Large and the others all had their eyes on him. Naturally, it was because of what Hunchback He had said before the poison acted up, that he was an alchemist with an abundance of spirit stones and pills. Now that he couldn't even protect himself, how could he care about others?
"Keke, Fellow Zou, the two of us will chase after this Lu brat. As for the others, two of you will guard the corpse of the Silver-winged Centipede. The rest of you will continue the chase!"
The eccentric thought quickly. Hunchback He had already fainted on the ground due to the poison. It was unknown whether he was dead or alive. Now, no one had the time to care about him. The Silver-winged Centipede was already a cooked duck and couldn't escape. However, as an alchemist, Lu Xiaotian's wealth might not be less than the refining materials on the Silver-winged Centipede's body.
If he went after him alone, first of all, judging from the situation just now, Lu Xiaotian was very scheming and might have some backup plans. Second, the other members of the team might not be convinced. If he called the embroidered clothed man surnamed Zou, who was second only to him in strength, it would be better for the two of them to split the benefits than seven or eight people. Even if the others were not convinced, they could only hold their noses and suffer in silence.
"Haha, good. Let's work together to kill this brat and avenge Hunchback He! " Zou Xin was very satisfied with the eccentric's arrangement and immediately agreed. The two of them, one in front and one behind, madly chased after Lu Xiaotian.
Luo Yuan, Wu Guang, and the others looked at each other in dismay and then quickly fled in other directions. Now, it wasn't just a waste of effort. It would be good if they could escape with their lives.
