Before he knew it, Lu Ye had been surrounded. There were at least twenty cultivators surrounding him.
To be able to gather so many people in such a short time and even set up an encirclement, it seemed that the Wind Flower Courtyard had been looking for him the moment they entered. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so efficient.
For any cultivator, this was a hopeless situation.
The tall woman walking over from the opposite side looked at Lu Ye with eyes full of anger, mixed with a trace of pleasure.
She was about to get her revenge, so of course she was happy!
The tall woman with a waistline stood a few dozen feet in front of Lu Ye. There were two people beside her. One of them was a fat woman. Her fat body was obviously abnormal. Even with her loose clothes, it couldn't hide the layers of fat on her stomach. Her skin was extremely white, making her look like a fat silkworm.
The other was also a woman. She was petite and looked carefree. Her hair wasn't long and was casually tied behind her head. She carried a long saber on her shoulder. The saber was half as long as her entire body, forming an extremely obvious contrast with her petite figure.
"Senior Sister Qing, is this the guy?" The saber woman looked Lu Ye up and down and asked. Her gaze was similar to Lu Ye's when he looked at his enemies. They were both looking for a suitable place to strike.
The tall woman nodded slightly.
"He's not ugly. It's a pity to kill him like this." The fat woman on the other side was also looking Lu Ye up and down. She narrowed her eyes and smiled. "Can you spare his life?"
The tall woman said coldly, "Of course I won't let him die so easily!"
The fat woman covered her mouth and laughed like a barbell. "Thank you, Senior Sister Qing." She looked at Lu Ye again with a thought-provoking light in her eyes.
"Lu Yi Ye! Do you know who I am? "the tall woman asked through gritted teeth.
Lu Ye threw a spirit pill into his mouth and chewed slowly.
"Who are you?"
The tall woman's eyes were cold. "Then do you remember Chuxue from the Golden Light Peak?"
"The female spell cultivator who flirted with me and was killed by me?"
After all, she was the second person to challenge him, so he had a deep impression of her. Previously, Lu Ye had planned to cause trouble at the Wind Flower Courtyard, so how could he forget?
"I'm Chuqing!"
Chuxue, Chuqing, these names sounded like a family. In fact, Chuxue had been brought to the Golden Light Summit by Chuqing and challenged Lu Ye. It could be said that Chuxue had died right under Chuqing's nose. However, with so many experts from both camps present and the Heaven's Will Contract, Chuqing didn't dare to act rashly even if she wanted to tear Lu Ye to pieces.
After the battle at the Golden Light Summit, Lu Ye retreated under the cover of Feng Yuechan and Wei Yang, disappearing without a trace.
Chu Qing originally thought that she wouldn't have the chance to take revenge in the future, but never had she imagined that she would actually see Lu Ye's tracks at the side of the gorge. At that time, for the sake of avoiding alerting Lu Ye, Chu Qing only took a few glances at Lu Ye before paying no further attention to him, and she was only waiting to enter the Boundless Mirage to get even with him.
After entering this place, Chu Qing quickly gathered the people in the vicinity, and at the same time, investigated Lu Ye's whereabouts.
Her luck was pretty good. It didn't take her much effort to find Lu Ye. She immediately led a group of people to set up an ambush, trapping Lu Ye here.
"Tell me, how do you want to die?" Chu Qing was confident of victory. Under her lead, more than twenty people surrounded this place tightly. No matter what, Lu Yiye wouldn't be able to escape today.
Lu Ye swallowed the Spirit Pill in his mouth, lowered his eyes, and slowly raised his hand to press on the hilt of his saber.
"How do you want to … die!?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Wind Travel Spirit Mark on his legs flashed, and his entire body turned into an afterimage as he pounced towards Chu Qing.
Halfway there, two Imperial Tools flew out, turning into two streaks of light, attacking the two women on Chu Qing's left and right.
"How dare you!" Chu Qing was furious and shouted, "Capture him!"
Just as she said to the fat woman just now, she didn't plan to let Lu Ye die so easily. She wanted to capture Lu Yiye first, and then deal with him properly. Otherwise, how could she vent the hatred in her heart?
These days, every time she thought of Chu Xue's tragic death, she couldn't sleep at night.
There were more than twenty people on her side, and there was only one enemy. Naturally, she could do whatever she wanted. The huge advantage in numbers was where Chu Qing's confidence came from. Not to mention other things, just the Imperial Tools of more than twenty people wasn't something Lu Ye could block.
Suddenly, cries of alarm came from all directions. Just as the nearby Wind Flower Court cultivators were about to make their move, Spirit Binding Chains shimmering with spiritual light shot out from behind them. Quite a few cultivators were caught off guard and were tightly bound, falling head first to the ground.
Those who reacted quickly weren't bound, but they had no choice but to fight the enemies that suddenly appeared behind them.
"Immortal Essence Defenders!" someone exclaimed.
Not only were there more than twenty Immortal Essence Defenders behind them, but these Immortal Essence Defenders had also ambushed them. This was something they had never encountered before.
Their group of more than twenty people had encountered several groups of Immortal Essence Defenders before, but those were only a few people in a group. Moreover, the Immortal Essence Defenders were inflexible, and only the captains had some intelligence. Ordinary Immortal Essence Defenders were all existences without thoughts or intelligence. How could they be a match for them? They were dealt with in a few moves.
This attack caught them off guard, and their original advantage in numbers was gone.
If they were only facing the Immortal Essence Defenders, they wouldn't be in such a sorry state. The Immortal Essence Defenders in this city were generally focused on capturing people. They basically wouldn't harm the lives of cultivators, unless the cultivators resisted too strongly. Under normal circumstances, the Immortal Essence Defenders wouldn't kill them after being bound by the Spirit Binding Chains.
The key point was that there were more than twenty Immortal Essence Defenders attacking them. There was also a strange spiritual body mixed in with these Immortal Essence Defenders. This spiritual body was a chubby guy wearing an official's robe and holding a dice cup in his hand. Three bright dice were continuously thrown out, reaping the lives of the cultivators bound by the Spirit Binding Chains.
In the blink of an eye, three people died at the hands of this chubby guy.
Originally, they were ambushed by a group of Immortal Essence Defenders. No one would believe this kind of thing. The group of Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators were beaten to the point of doubting their lives.
This was naturally the work of Hu Po, who was hiding in the dark.
After noticing that he was being followed, Lu Ye didn't let Yiyi move around alone. There was no way to burrow underground in Immortal Essence City. It was too dangerous for Yiyi to move around alone. He directly released Hu Po, wanting to find traces of the stalker.
As a result, the information Yi Yi gave him surprised him. There was indeed only one Ghost Cultivator following him in the dark, but there were many cultivators quietly approaching from all directions …
Lu Ye knew that those people were going to ambush him. What else could he say? He sent a message to Yi Yi, asking her to set up a counter-ambush. The Nightmare Spirit was usually hidden in Hu Po's body and couldn't be seen. When it was needed, it could be released. It was the most suitable for this kind of thing.
Previously, he talked nonsense with Chu Qing just to stall for time and wait for Yi Yi's side to be properly deployed. Otherwise, if the people of Wind Flower Courtyard really attacked together, he wouldn't be able to stop them even if he had the Defense Spirit Rune.
The current situation was much better.
The Wind Flower Courtyard cultivators who were lying in ambush were entangled by the Immortal Essence Defenders and couldn't find the time to deal with him. He only needed to deal with the three people on Chu Qing's side.
These three women were all in the Ninth Order Realm, but so what?
Clanging sounds rang out as two streams of Imperial Artifact light were sent flying by the woman with the long saber. She held her saber with both hands and used her Saber Technique, covering a radius of ten meters around her. If one couldn't break her Saber Momentum, they wouldn't be able to get close to her.
Although Chu Qing and the fat white woman were surprised by the change in the situation, they didn't panic. A stream of Imperial Artifact light flew out from Chu Qing's hand and shot towards Lu Ye's right temple.
On the way, Lu Ye slashed out with his saber, but the Spirit Artifact nimbly dodged and brushed past his saber. At the critical moment, the Mountain Coiling Saber flicked upwards, sending the Imperial Artifact flying.
At this moment, Lu Ye was already ten meters away from Chu Qing and the others. After his two Imperial Artifacts were sent flying, he didn't care about them anymore. Even if he could use his clone to control his two Imperial Artifacts in close combat with the enemy, he would still be distracted in the end.
In this kind of life and death situation, being distracted would only lead to faster death.
Before he reached the Seventh Order Realm, he envied other people's Imperial Artifact Techniques, but after he could control his own Imperial Artifacts, he discovered that although this technique seemed amazing, it actually had a huge drawback. It was only suitable for a mid-range confrontation. Once it came to close combat, Imperial Artifacts were basically useless.
Of course, if someone could entangle the enemy, and their companion assisted by Imperial Artifacts, the effect would be very good.
All methods were used to kill the enemy, and it all depended on how they were used flexibly.
The Mountain Coiling Saber slashed out at a speed that seemed slow, but was actually very fast. However, just as he swung his saber, a saber edge came straight at him. Lu Ye had no choice but to change from offense to defense and block this fierce blow.
In the next moment, clanging sounds rang out as the Spirit Artifacts collided, causing sparks to fly everywhere.
Chu Qing and the fat white woman were about to come over to help when suddenly, Spirit Energy fluctuations surged out from behind them.
The two of them turned around to look and were both startled. They didn't know when, but a team of Immortal Yuan Guards had appeared behind them. The moment they turned around, Spirit Binding Chains covered their heads.
Hu Po had now transformed a total of thirty-one Nightmare Spirits. According to their original arrangement, they were divided into six small teams. Five of the teams were lying in ambush for the cultivators from the Wind Flower Courtyard, while the last team was brought here by Hu Po.
Even if Lu Ye could kill enemies above his realm, with his Eighth Order cultivation, he wasn't a match for three Ninth Order cultivators at the same time. However, with the assistance of a team of Immortal Yuan Guards, things were different.
The sneak attack was so sudden that even Ninth Order cultivators like Chu Qing and the fat white woman couldn't react in time.
At the critical moment, the fat white woman leaned to the side and stood in front of Chu Qing with an agility that didn't match her fat figure. Spirit Binding Chains instantly shrouded her. Under the control of the Immortal Yuan Guards, the Spirit Binding Chains tightened, causing her fat body to be shackled. The fat woman gritted her teeth and roared. The Blood Qi around her body was so abundant that it almost condensed into substance and surged outwards.
Chu Qing flashed out from behind her, holding a short sword in each hand. Although she was a woman, she brazenly rushed in front of an Immortal Yuan Guard. The light of her Spirit Artifact flickered as her figure spun around, playing a symphony of slaughter.
