#1150 - Chapter 1150 Recognized
Ye Kong looked at the sand wall.
“It seems that there is only one way to get in.”
After speaking, before Zhang Tie and Sheng Ge could react, Ye Kong pushed them both, sending them towards the sand wall.
Instantly, two sand hands solidified from the sand wall, grabbing their shoulders, and with a forceful tug, pulled them into the sand dune.
Ye Kong immediately followed.
“Bang!”
With a muffled thud, Zhang Tie hadn't even gotten up when Sheng Ge was thrown in, landing heavily on top of him.
Zhang Tie fell back down with a clang.
“Ouch, oh my, Junior Sister, people are truly deceptive.”
Another heavy collision, and Zhang Tie fell headfirst.
Ye Kong nimbly got off Zhang Tie and said with a hint of apology, “Are you alright, Zhang Tie?”
Ye Kong extended his hand, Zhang Tie grabbed it, and with a pull, stood up.
Zhang Tie forced a smile, “I’m fine, I’m fine.”
Sheng Ge smiled knowingly, and with a casual glance, saw the scene before her.
“Look quickly.”
Ye Kong and Zhang Tie turned their heads to look.
Before them was a large mass of purple mist swirling everywhere.
The purple mist slowly spread, gradually reaching the three of them.
“Ye Kong!” Zhang Tie didn't know if the purple mist was dangerous, and could only ask Ye Kong.
“There’s no other way to go right now. Let’s go in and see what’s in this purple mist.”
As soon as Ye Kong spoke, the two immediately understood, and the three of them walked into the purple mist together.
Unbeknownst to them, in the absence of divine sense, Gongsun Qing was not far from them.
At this time, Gongsun Qing had also been searching for an exit in the purple mist for a long time, but there were no results.
As Gongsun Qing walked forward again, he paused, looking ahead warily.
Although he couldn't use his divine sense, his intuition told him that something was wrong.
The next moment, three strangely shaped beasts appeared in the purple mist, resembling wolves, yet also like lions, with terrifying and bizarre shapes. Gongsun Qing had never seen such strange beasts.
At the same time, a ferocious beast with eyes as red and bright as flames appeared before Ye Kong and his companions.
“What is this thing?” Zhang Tie scrutinized it for a long time, but couldn't figure out what it was.
Sheng Ge also looked puzzled, having never seen it before.
Even Ye Kong's eyes showed confusion.
Gongsun Qing discovered that the three strange beasts seemed to be sizing him up, but had not yet attacked.
He might as well strike first and try to take one down.
Having thought of this, he immediately acted. Gongsun Qing held his bow, drew an arrow, and shot it decisively.
However, on Ye Kong's side, just as the strange beast was about to attack them, Zhang Tie immediately rushed forward, and Ye Kong coordinated with Zhang Tie. While the beast was attacking Zhang Tie, Ye Kong cast a spell, creating a small binding array with a wave of his hand, trapping it.
Meanwhile, Gongsun Qing did not expect that when he attacked, another strange beast could set up an array to trap him.
“Damn it!”
What the others didn't know was that the three strange beasts in front of Gongsun Qing were actually Ye Kong and his companions, while the beast in the eyes of Ye Kong and his companions was Gongsun Qing.
But none of them knew the other's true identity, and all of this was because the surrounding purple mist not only had the effect of blocking divine sense, but also had a hallucinatory effect, making everything they saw appear as fierce beasts.
Ye Kong easily controlled the strange beast, and Zhang Tie walked forward.
“This strange beast isn’t that strong after all.”
What Gongsun Qing saw was three strange beasts surrounding him, as if they were about to open their bloody mouths to devour him at any moment.
Gongsun Qing was somewhat panicked, and tried to escape the trap set by Ye Kong by casting spells several times.
But in the eyes of Ye Kong and his companions, this beast was extremely ferocious.
“This beast, I must teach you a lesson!” Zhang Tie said, raising his arm and channeling spiritual energy into his fist, wanting to give the beast a heavy blow.
“Wait!” Sheng Ge immediately stood in front of Zhang Tie.
“Junior Sister Sheng, why are you stopping me?”
“Senior Brother Zhang, this beast has already been trapped by us, and hasn’t injured us. There’s no need to strike so hard.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Tie immediately retorted.
“Whether it’s a demon beast or a strange beast, they are all beasts that harm and injure people, and take lives. How can we let it go?”
While the two were arguing, Ye Kong kept staring at the strange beast.
For some reason, he felt a sense of… an inexplicable familiarity with the beast in front of him.
Ye Kong formed a hand seal with one hand, spiritual energy swirling around his fingertips. Ye Kong ran his fingers across his eyes, and his eyes suddenly glowed with a faint golden light.
However, affected by the surrounding purple mist, Ye Kong couldn't discern the true identity of the beast.
At this time, Zhang Tie didn't agree with Sheng Ge's suggestion, and once again raised his large fist, channeling the spiritual energy in his body into the center of his fist, wanting to give this beast a heavy blow.
“That last punch was too light. That won’t happen now.”
With that said, Zhang Tie threw out his fist with a bang.
At the moment the punch was thrown, the spiritual power on Zhang Tie's body erupted, creating a gust of wind that briefly dispersed the surrounding purple mist.
It was at this moment that Ye Kong's eyes flashed, and he saw the beast momentarily transform back into Gongsun Qing.
Sheng Ge and Zhang Tie didn't notice, but Ye Kong saw it.
Seeing that Zhang Tie's fist was about to hit the beast's face again, Ye Kong hurriedly intervened.
Ye Kong waved his arm, and a clear light flashed, protecting the beast and blocking Zhang Tie's extremely powerful punch.
Zhang Tie was really puzzled. Why even Ye Kong was stopping him?
Ye Kong explained to the two of them: “This is not a beast, it’s a person!”
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of Sheng Ge and Zhang Tie widened simultaneously, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Zhang Tie looked left and right, up and down, surveying the beast, but couldn't see anything that resembled a human.
“Ye Kong, this beast's shape is so strange and ugly, are you sure it’s a person?”
“He’s not just a person, he’s Gongsun Qing.”
“What!”
“What!”
Sheng Ge and Zhang Tie were stunned when they heard that the person in front of them was Gongsun Qing.
Ye Kong continued to explain: “That’s right, I didn't realize it at first either. It must be the hallucinatory effect of the surrounding purple mist that made us mistake him for a strange beast.”
No matter how Zhang Tie looked at it, it was hard for him to believe that the person in front of him was Gongsun Qing, but there was nothing he could do, because he unconditionally believed Ye Kong's words.
Ye Kong looked around and said, “This mist should have a source. As long as we find the source of the purple mist, maybe we can make it dissipate.”
Ye Kong spoke his idea, and Zhang Tie and Sheng Ge nodded in agreement.
“Then him… uh, no, Senior Brother Gongsun, are we going to take him with us?”
Ye Kong shook his head, “Perhaps, in his eyes right now, we are three fierce and evil beasts.”
