#1178 - Chapter 1178: The Self-Torture Scheme

Zhang Tie hurriedly helped Ye Kong up.

Shen Fan Shuang hadn't expected Zhang Tie's sudden appearance.

"Ye Kong, are you alright!" Zhang Tie anxiously asked about Ye Kong's condition.

Ye Kong only shook his head and remained silent, enduring the stabbing pain coming from his shoulder.

Seeing Ye Kong so badly injured, Zhang Tie no longer cared about Shen Fan Shuang's status and spoke domineeringly.

"Senior Sister Shen! Ye Kong offended the Four Great Families in Four Directions City for the sake of his fellow disciples. He accidentally killed Ren Cheng to protect us. We also wanted to plead guilty to the Ren family, but the Ren family has already issued a death warrant against us and even activated the Great Net Array to trap us. This is not Ye Kong's fault alone!"

After hearing Zhang Tie's angry words, Shen Fan Shuang seemed to understand something.

Although she had little interaction with Ye Kong, she could tell when Ye Kong first entered the Supreme Origin Academy that he was not the kind of person who killed indiscriminately.

But this time, the trouble they caused in Four Directions City was no small matter.

If I withdraw, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to the Ren family…

Shen Fan Shuang pondered, thinking about complicated matters.

Zhang Tie couldn't care less. Ye Kong had been struck by Shen Fan Shuang's sword, and he couldn't swallow this anger!

Zhang Tie clenched his fists, ready to fight Shen Fan Shuang.

Shen Fan Shuang looked at the bare-handed Zhang Tie, knowing he was no match for her, but he was still willing to do his best for his fellow disciples.

Shen Fan Shuang sighed helplessly in her heart, then spun her sword, lightly drawing a streak of light.

"咻~"

The sharp sword inserted into Ye Kong's shoulder was directly pulled out, spun in the air, and flew off to an unknown location.

Fresh blood flowed from Ye Kong's wound, staining his clothes red.

Ye Kong calmly extended two fingers, exerted a little force, and activated his spiritual power.

A steady stream of spiritual energy涌 out from his fingertips, healing the wound on Ye Kong's shoulder.

Shen Fan Shuang rotated her hands and withdrew them, stopping the infusion of spiritual power into the formation.

The Great Net Array in the air flashed again and returned to its invisible state.

"This…" Zhang Tie was stunned, obviously not expecting Shen Fan Shuang to withdraw her hand.

Shen Fan Shuang stared at the two of them with an unchanged expression.

"As you wish."

This time, I'll help you.

At this moment, the corner of Ye Kong's mouth curled into a faint arc.

Before Zhang Tie could react, Ye Kong spoke first.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Shen, for your great kindness. After we return to the Supreme Origin Academy, we will definitely punish ourselves." Ye Kong said politely, then quickly pulled Zhang Tie away.

Shen Fan Shuang didn't say anything else and allowed the two to leave.

After the two completely left the Shen family, they came to a small alley.

Zhang Tie anxiously wanted to check Ye Kong's injury, but Ye Kong refused.

Ye Kong gently tapped his wound, and a flash of light passed by. The wound in front of him disappeared.

Zhang Tie was dumbfounded and rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Seeing that Ye Kong's wound had indeed disappeared, Zhang Tie stammered, unable to speak.

"You… you, this!"

Ye Kong smiled casually and explained.

"I just used a small illusion to make you think I was seriously injured."

Zhang Tie now knew the truth.

He remembered that Ye Kong had already been hit by the sword when he confronted Shen Fan Shuang.

"Alright, this feigned injury has worked. Now that our goal has been achieved, Senior Brother Gongsun and the others should have gone to the Ren family. Let's go too."

After speaking, the two leaped and flew to the Ren family.

But Gongsun Qing and the other two arrived at the Ren family before Ye Kong and Zhang Tie.

When they arrived at the Ren family, they didn't expect the gate to be wide open, with no one guarding it.

It looked as if they were specially welcoming someone.

The three looked at each other, raised their hearts, and walked in.

As soon as they entered the gate of the Ren family, they saw a huge platform in front of them.

The platform was surrounded by iron chains, and several yellow talismans were attached to the chains.

As soon as the three entered the courtyard, with a "轰!" sound, the gate suddenly closed.

Gongsun Qing and the other two quickly turned around.

Just as the three turned around, a talisman flew out from nowhere and stuck to the inside of the door.

"This is… a No Entry Talisman!" Sheng Ge recognized the talisman.

The three felt something was wrong and immediately turned around again.

They saw a solemn person appearing on the high platform. The person had a serious face and hidden fierceness in his eyes.

It was the head of the Ren family, Ren Jiangnong!

The three immediately became vigilant.

Ren Jiangnong then conjured a triangular talisman and threw it into the air.

"唰!"

Suddenly, a light罩 spread out from the talisman, covering the entire Ren family.

Ren Jiangnong stood on the high platform, looking down at the three.

"It's you who killed my son!"

His voice was thick and carried an angry威严, making the three who were new to the world feel a little scared.

The three didn't speak. Although Ren Cheng wasn't killed by them, they didn't want to expose Ye Kong and just silently acknowledged what Ren Jiangnong said.

Ren Jiangnong was furious, his face a little狰狞.

"Very well, then today, I will let the three of you be buried with my son!"

After speaking, Ren Jiangnong stretched out his arms, and waves of pressure spread out from his body.

Ren Jiangnong took something from the air, and two more golden talismans appeared in his hand.

The talismans were covered with red spells, which were incomprehensible ghost drawings.

Ren Jiangnong opened his lips slightly, chanting a spell, and the talismans in his hand were obviously stimulated, emitting a flashing light.

"咻~咻!"

Ren Jiangnong suddenly struck the three with the talismans in his hand.

The two originally soft pieces of paper instantly became hard, like sharp blades that were not easily bent, stabbing towards the three.

The three were shocked and retreated in unison to avoid them.

What they didn't expect was that they easily avoided Ren Jiangnong's two talismans.

"锵~锵!"

The two talismans were directly nailed into the ground in front of the three.

The corner of Ren Jiangnong's mouth curled into a disdainful smile, and then he lightly rotated his small hand.

The two talismans seemed to be controlled, emitting a violent flash of light.

The next second, the two talismans caused a huge explosion, creating a powerful air pressure that directly affected the three who were close at hand.

"嘭!"

The two talismans sounded almost simultaneously, breaking the sound, and the surrounding dust suddenly flew up, and even the solid foot bricks were broken, forming a small pit.

Dust billowed, obscuring the figures of the three.

But Ren Jiangnong was as leisurely as if he knew the result.

The two talismans he had just taken out were the Ren family's self-made Body Bursting Talismans, and the power generated could affect the surrounding area.

He used two Body Bursting Talismans, and he didn't intend to leave the three of them with complete corpses.

But as the flying dust gradually dissipated, Ren Jiangnong was shocked, and the figures of the three appeared in front of him.
