537 What Happened
The corners of Protector Liâs lips kept rising. He looked like a cunning old fox.
Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows and pulled out the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword.
âIf you want to fight, then fight!â
The Helian Xia general sneered.
âBrat, let me give you a piece of advice. Surrender obediently, or youâll die.â
âWhy donât you take a look at whatâs behind you? Theyâre just a motley crew. Do you think you have the power to fight me with these people?â
Jiang Ming glanced behind him, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. Indeed, these troops were no match for him at all.
Jiang Ming shook his head, and his gaze turned slightly to Wu Ming.
âWu Ming, are you confident in killing these people?â
Wu Ming shook his head and said in a low voice, âThese undead soldiers of the Helian Xia can form a battle formation. Once the formation is formed, I wonât have the ability to fight them at all. Thereâs a high chance that Iâll be seriously injured.â
When Jiang Ming heard this, he nodded. Then, he looked at Zhai Tianfeng behind him.
âDonât panic. They have a battle formation. However, so do we.â
âTianfeng, get ready!â
âYes, sir!â
Zhai Tianfengâs eyes lit up and he immediately began to set up the array formation. Of course, the inhabitants were all members of the Flowerfruit Sect. Very soon, a square array formation was formed, causing many people to tremble in fear.
The Helian Xia generalâs face darkened, and he exclaimed in disbelief, âWhat battle formation is this?â
In his impression, such a powerful array formation did not seem to exist.
What was going on?
Many people subconsciously looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
The soldiers of the Helian Xia army were in an uproar. They could feel that the battle formation of the Flowerfruit Sect was obviously more advanced, as if it contained considerable power.
âWhat should we do next?â
Another general asked. Although they were both generals, the latterâs status was slightly lower.
The Helian Xia general narrowed his eyes and said decisively, âRetreat!â
Protector Liâs smile froze as he watched the Helian Xia army retreat in disbelief.
âSir, why are you retreating?â
He did not understand what had happened and why the Helian Xia army had suddenly retreated.
The Helian Xia general glanced at him in disgust and shouted coldly, âDo I need to explain myself to you? Who do you think you are? How dare you ask for an answer from me?â
Protector Li was shocked speechless. He was a dignified sect elder, yet he was being reprimanded like this?
Protector Li took a deep breath and glanced around him. He said coldly, âYouâd better sit tight. One day, Iâll definitely destroy you, Ning Caichen!â
He then left in large strides.
When the others saw this scene, they all lowered their heads and revealed incredulous expressions.
What was going on?
Even Jiang Ming himself was a little stunned. He did not quite understand why the Helian Xia army retreated so quickly.
âEven if we were to fight in the array formation, we would not be able to scare them away in an instant, right?â Jiang Ming muttered to himself. However, it seemed useless no matter how much he thought about it. He could only shake his head and wave his hands.
At present, it seemed that no more Helian Xia troops would appear in the short term. In this case, they could take a good rest.
Seeing that the Flowerfruit Sect was actually resting, the experts of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land, who were whipped into the distance, were instantly enraged again.
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened!
âNing Caichen, die!â
With a loud shout, a powerful Nascent Soul Realm aura whizzed over.
âItâs an expert from the Ancient Yin Yang Sect!â
This was a great expert in the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm. Such a loud shout made many peopleâs hearts tremble. It was like a lionâs roar that resounded throughout the entire arena.
âProtect the master!â
Many Nascent Soul Realm experts surrounded Jiang Ming and protected him.
A white-robed old man slowly approached. He was the fifth person in the Ancient Yin Yang Sectâs team. He was an expert at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm and was at the half-step Soul Formation Realm. His aura was somewhat unfathomable.
Jiang Ming looked at this person and vaguely understood why he was doing this.
âHe should be here for the prodigy of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect!â
Previously, during the fight for the Dragon Abyss Imitation Sword, there was a prodigy of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect who wanted to intercept him. However, he was killed by Jiang Ming. From then on, Jiang Ming knew that the Ancient Yin Yang Sect would come to seek revenge.
However, until now, no one from the Ancient Yin Yang Sect came to find him. Jiang Ming felt that it was quite strange. Logically speaking, the other party should have come to find him long ago. However, now it seemed that things were even stranger.
âWe clearly know that our side has Wu Ming and many Nascent Soul Realm cultivators. However, in the end, such a person came⦠Heâs probably not here to kill me!â
It was also at this moment that another powerful aura spread out. It was a prodigy of the Zhuyan Palace. However, it was obvious that this was a prodigy of the previous generation. He had matured a long time ago and possessed the cultivation and combat strength of the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm at a young age.
âZhu Asi, are you here to stop me from killing this person?â
Seeing this prodigy of Zhuyan Palace, the elder of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect could not help but narrow his eyes and shout.
Zhu Asi shook his head calmly and said, âIâm only here to see you kill him.â
âHmm?â
Jiang Ming was stunned, and so was the elder of the Ancient Yin Yang Sect. They did not understand what Zhu Asi meant.
At this moment, Zhu Asi spoke again, âNing Caichen, let me see your strength and talent. Let me see your potential. Do you have the qualifications to gain the trust of the Zhuyan Palace? No one is allowed to make a move. Let Ning Caichen fight alone⦠Otherwise, Iâll kill whoever makes a move!â
This time, Wu Ming could not take it anymore. He slowly stood up, his gaze as cold as a blade.
âAre you looking for death?â
This time, Wu Mingâs eyes were filled with a cold glint, as if he could tear Zhu Asi apart in the next moment.
âThatâs right. You seem very suspicious! Whatâs this talk about trust? Itâs ridiculous!â
Rao Wuqing snorted coldly. His cultivation had already reached the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. Coupled with all sorts of powerful techniques, he wanted to fight Zhu Asi and see how capable he was.
At this moment, the atmosphere was somber. Only Zhu Asi stood there with a calm expression, completely out of place.
