Vol.2 – Chapter 100 – The benefits of being lenient towards the enemy


……

How many times has it been?

Huangfu Jin Huan could hardly keep track of how many times he had been outsmarted by Wang Shouzhe.

Now, whenever he heard this name, his heart was filled with shadows, making him feel as if he had lived his entire life in vain, and he was somewhat depressed.

This time, he had racked his brains and planned for a long time, preparing all kinds of trump cards, even mortgaging many of his family’s assets. He even sent the elders of his clan on a long journey to the Huangfu Clan in the southern desert, shamelessly pleading for help, and once again obtained two Red Fire Dragon Scales.

Because of this, his family’s relationship with the Huangfu Clan in the southern desert was almost exhausted.

And all these efforts he made were just to be prepared for the worst and increase his chances of winning.

The Huangfu Clan of Changning really couldn’t afford to lose anymore.

And the final result was as he wished. The resourceful young master finally fell into his hands.

This finally restored Huangfu Jin Huan’s confidence.

Who would have thought that at his moment of triumph, Wang Shouzhe would appear again like a nightmare.

Huangfu Jin Huan’s face turned pale, and his voice trembled, “Why? Why are you here?”

Why wouldn’t this kid just go away?

“Master Jin Huan, you’re being too much~” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, leisurely, “This Blood Nest base isn’t owned by your family. I don’t need to report to you if I want to explore the ruins, do I?”

With that said.

His gaze fell on the disheveled young master, and a mocking smile appeared on his face, “I didn’t expect that the direct disciple of the Yinsha Sect would end up in such a state. It’s really a pity. I’ll take your head.”

“You!”

The young master was so angry that his blood was churning, and he couldn’t help but turn pale and spit out another mouthful of blood.

It was indeed a case of a fallen tiger being bullied by a dog!

As a direct disciple of the prestigious Yinsha Sect, he was humiliated by the Huangfu Clan once, and now he was being abused by a nobody who popped out of nowhere. This was outrageous!

“Wang Shouzhe!” Huangfu Jin Huan was so angry that his whole body was trembling, and he gritted his teeth and said, “If you want to pick peaches, you should see if you have the ability! We have two Heavenly Realm Ancestors here. Even if you bring Xu Beichen and Wang Zhoubo, you won’t get any benefits!”

“I praised you for being smart before, but I didn’t expect you to be so stupid.” Wang Shouzhe glanced at him and couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh, “You should think about it. With my personality, if I didn’t have a sure win, why would I appear at this time?”

As his words fell, his allies began to walk in one by one.

First were his own people from the Wang Clan of Ping’an. Because this trip was very dangerous, Wang Shouzhe didn’t let those with insufficient strength participate.

Therefore, the Wang Clan of Ping’an only had Ancestor Long Yan, the eldest lady of the Wang Clan, Liu Ruolan, and Wang Shouzhe, just three people.

Then came Ancestor Beichen from the Xu Clan of Changning, and Ancestor Xiangyang from the Zhong Clan of the Hundred Islands.

The appearance of these two people already made Ancestor Huaye and Ancestor Yuanwu change their expressions.

Xu Beichen of the Xu Clan was a recent figure in several cities.

The fame of any newly promoted Heavenly Realm cultivator would spread around several cities in a very short time.

However, these new Heavenly Realm cultivators were fine, as they had just been promoted and their strength was certainly not very strong. They probably didn’t even have a magic weapon, or they didn’t have time to refine a magic weapon!

However, Ancestor Xiangyang from the Zhong Clan of the Hundred Islands was different.

He was a well-known old Heavenly Realm cultivator with unfathomable strength. Because his family ran a black market, no one could guess how many trump cards he held.

As the saying goes, old people are cunning. It would be hard to invite an old Heavenly Realm cultivator like Ancestor Xiangyang out without some assurance.

Sure enough.

Behind them, two more people walked in leisurely.

One was a young-looking woman who looked around curiously. The other made Huangfu Jin Huan and Ancestor Huaye gasp.

“Fang You’an!”

That one was indeed Fang You’an, the direct disciple of the Purple Mansion Academy.

How could such a person be in Wang Shouzhe’s team?

Especially Huangfu Jin Huan, his head was buzzing. The direct disciple of the academy, Wang Shouzhe actually brought the direct disciple of the academy.

How powerful is the direct disciple of the academy?

Just look at the young master of the Yinsha Sect, because they are on the same level.

As soon as Fang You’an appeared, his eyes were fixed on the “young master”, and his face changed slightly, “It’s you, Yin Yuzhe!”

It was not until this moment.

That the name of the mysterious young master of the Yinsha Sect was revealed.Yin Yuzhe struggled to lift his head to look at Fang You’an, his expression becoming somewhat complex and difficult to decipher. He coughed and said, “Fang You’an, it’s been ten years since we last met on the battlefield beyond the realm. I never thought that our next meeting would be under such circumstances.”

Battlefield beyond the realm?

Wang Shouzhe’s eyes narrowed slightly. Yin Yuzhe’s brief statement allowed him to infer quite a bit. He smiled and said, “Brother You’an, could this be an old friend of yours?”

“Indeed.” A strong killing intent flashed in Fang You’an’s eyes. “This Yin Yuzhe is one of the prodigies of the Yinsha Sect. I had the ‘fortune’ of encountering him once on the battlefield. My impression of him is quite profound.”

“The feeling is mutual.” Yin Yuzhe retorted with a cold laugh. “You, Fang You’an, also have quite a reputation, having killed many of our people. It’s a pity that I’m not in my best condition today, otherwise, I would love to experience your Ice Sword Twin Absolute again.”

The two of them exchanged words, showcasing the demeanor of direct disciples. As prodigies, they looked down upon everyone else.

Only their peers, even if they were enemies, would make them face each other squarely.

Perhaps, this was the arrogance of prodigies.

“Yin Yuzhe.” Fang You’an said solemnly, “You’ve killed countless people on the battlefield beyond the realm, and dared to stir up trouble in my Daqian secretly. You should leave your life behind.”

“Hmph!”

A trace of fierceness flashed in Yin Yuzhe’s narrow eyes. “You’re unlucky! I originally planned to use this move to counterattack when I lured out the old dog Huaye. But I didn’t expect that while the mantis was catching the cicada, the oriole was behind. And behind that, there was you… It’s worth it to die with you, Brother Fang.”

“What?”

Fang You’an’s face changed slightly.

Immediately, the situation on the scene changed drastically. Yin Yuzhe’s eyes flashed with a ruthless and resolute light, and a blood-colored ball appeared in his hand, which he detonated without hesitation.

In an instant, the dormant Blood Gu Emperor in the blood-colored ball was startled. It bit Yin Yuzhe’s arm and instantly burrowed into his blood vessels.

“Ah!”

Accompanied by a painful and intense scream, a terrifying energy erupted from Yin Yuzhe’s body, causing the air to vibrate.

“This… Yin Yuzhe, you have quite the nerve.” Fang You’an’s face changed drastically. “With your current condition, using the Blood Gu Emperor is certain to lead to demonic possession.”

Fang You’an, as a direct disciple of the academy, understood the danger of this object. For direct disciples like them, even if they were in their best condition, they would have to weigh the pros and cons before using such a domineering object as the Blood Gu Emperor.

After all, although this object was incredibly powerful, it was also extremely dangerous.

There had been cases of direct disciples failing to control the Blood Gu Emperor and being possessed by it, their consciousness controlled by the Blood Gu Emperor.

“Demonic possession?” Yin Yuzhe’s eyes burst out with two fiery red lights, and his blood vessels and muscles were constantly twisting. At this moment, he still retained some sanity and laughed wildly. “Hehehe, rather than being slaughtered like pigs and sheep by you, I choose to explode and take you all with me.”

The Ancestor Huaye and Ancestor Yuanwu, both old and cunning, saw that something was wrong and quickly retreated, getting as far away from the crazed Yin Yuzhe as possible.

They couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat from their foreheads. Fortunately, they hadn’t had time to make a move just now, otherwise, they might have been counterattacked by Yin Yuzhe. They knew the power of the Blood Gu Emperor, but they didn’t expect it could be used in such a way. In the end, their experience was insufficient, and they almost fell into a trap.

“Junior Brother Shouzhe!” Fang You’an’s expression became extremely serious. “This is a big problem. Once Yin Yuzhe is controlled by the Blood Gu Emperor, he will become very difficult to deal with. And he hasn’t undergone the baptism of the Blood Nest Warriors, so he can’t be controlled by the Blood Nest. He will only act according to his demonic instincts. If he escapes, the entire southern part of Longzuo Commandery will be plunged into a bloodbath.”

“Brother You’an.” Liu Ruolan gave him a glance. “My husband said earlier that we should prepare more trump cards, but you complained…”

“Cough, cough!” Fang You’an’s face turned red, and he said awkwardly, “I was wrong. If I had known this would happen, I would have begged my master to come with us.”

“Brother You’an, you can’t beat him?” Wang Shouzhe’s eyebrows furrowed. A single Blood Gu Emperor had made Fang You’an admit his mistake! It seemed that this thing was really extraordinary.

“Normally, it would be a fifty-fifty chance. But the most dangerous thing about the Blood Gu Emperor is when the host is controlled by it.” Fang You’an took a deep breath. “With me and Junior Sister Luwei, we should be able to barely hold him off. Junior Brother Shouzhe, Luwei and I will go first. After you and Junior Sister Long Yan have dealt with your enemies, come and help us immediately.”

With that said!

Fang You’an wasted no more words and rose into the air.

“Zing!”

The sound of a sword humming rang out.A long sword of icy crystal hue spanned across the sky, causing the temperature within the entire Blood Nest to plummet in an instant. Snowflakes began to dance in the air. The sight was quite spectacular.

At the same time.

The senior sister from Green Willow was also looking very serious. She pushed off the ground with her feet, and boom, she shot off like a cannonball. The speed and explosive power caught everyone off guard.

Uh…

Upon witnessing this scene, Wang Shouzhe was truly cursing in his heart. He had previously suggested being lenient with the enemy and preparing several trump cards, only to be ridiculed.

Now, both of the experts were restrained by Yin Yuzhe and couldn’t function at all. No, even Fang You’an was counting on Wang Shouzhe to quickly deal with the enemy and help fight Yin Yuzhe.

Fortunately, he didn’t listen to Fang You’an. He was still patiently preparing his trump cards.

When Wang Shouzhe turned his head to look at Huangfu Jin Huan, their gazes met, sparking intense “fireworks”.
