#1236 - Chapter 1236 Be Quiet

Ye Kong's light and airy words had obviously made fools of them all once again.

Hu Yishao was furious and wanted to find trouble with Ye Kong. But when he raised his hand and saw Ye Kong's expression change, fear flowed from the bottom of his heart, and he could only take his anger out on his subordinates.

Hu Yishao kicked the disciples who had attacked earlier several meters away before realizing what he had done, looking at Ye Kong in disbelief.

"Didn't they say you were already…"

Ye Kong interrupted Hu Yishao, "Already what? Lost my spiritual power, able only to be beaten and not fight back?" Ye Kong laughed until he was breathless.

"Who was the blind idiot who spread that rumor? However, dealing with you guys only requires a little trickery. How about it, want to try?"

Everyone took a step back.

The group of people were bruised and swollen, looking at each other.

"Then I'll be leaving." Ye Kong swaggered straight away.

Almost at the same moment, the people watching from the trees all disappeared, only the clear chirping of birds could be heard in the forest.

It was the season of good rain, and the birds stayed in their nests.

"Don't be angry, Senior Brother Hu, Ye Kong definitely won't escape this quicksand gulch."

In order to avoid being exposed, Ye Kong could only avoid the secret passage and head towards the southwest of the quicksand gulch. However, he couldn't leave quickly and had to give Qishan and Lingli enough time.

Now, he had to play games with these people.

Ye Kong deliberately went around in circles, just so these people couldn't figure out what he was trying to do.

Even the people who had been secretly observing Ye Kong couldn't help but wonder, was Ye Kong stupid? Why didn't he leave the quicksand gulch and kept looking for remote places to stay?

The sky gradually darkened, and a strong wind rose in the entire dense forest, the wind blowing the fallen leaves rustling, and the sand blinding the eyes. Ye Kong found a place under a tree to rest temporarily, and with a "thump," an apple fell on Ye Kong's head.

Ouch, Ye Kong couldn't dodge in time, and the apple hit him right on the forehead.

Ye Kong rubbed his head and looked at the culprit, a bright red and tempting apple.

Ye Kong wiped the dirt off its surface and took a big bite directly. Immediately, the fragrance of the apple filled his mouth and teeth, and with the crisp sound of crunching, an apple was instantly eaten clean by Ye Kong.

Ye Kong wiped his mouth with satisfaction, wondering how long it had been since he had eaten an apple. This apple temporarily quenched his thirst and even gave him a sense of fullness.

Ye Kong ate to his heart's content and jumped up, flying up the tree. Unexpectedly, the tree was bare, where was the shadow of the apple?

Then where did this apple come from?

Here, besides Ye Kong, everyone else was here to capture Ye Kong. Ye Kong didn't think they would be so kind as to send him an apple to eat.

However, that apple was just an ordinary apple. Eating it in his mouth and swallowing it into his stomach had no effect, so Ye Kong simply didn't bother to care.

However, this tree trunk was a good place to rest. Ye Kong took off his clothes, spread them out, and lay down on them.

Accompanied by the rustling wind, Ye Kong quickly fell into a dream.

At this time, people from several major teams quickly gathered, setting a trap towards the place where Ye Kong was resting, preparing to capture Ye Kong alive.

At this time, Ye Kong was sleeping soundly, constantly smacking his lips, wondering what luxurious meal he was eating.

Suddenly, a thunderclap in the sky blasted through the sky, the world was bright for a moment and then dark, followed by a rumbling sound, instantly waking up Ye Kong who was still sleeping.

"What's that sound?" Ye Kong woke up abruptly. He saw the sky in the distance flickering, thunder rumbling, lightning flashing across the sky, this was a sign of a heavy rain.

He couldn't stay in the tree, he had to stay far away from the tree during thunderstorms. Ye Kong ran a few steps down the tree and continued to run forward. He vaguely remembered that there should be a cave to take shelter from the rain on the hillside.

Ye Kong was like a chicken paying New Year's greetings to a weasel, delivering himself to their door.

But for now, this was a good place to be, after all, the darkest place under the lamp is the safest place.

Ye Kong comforted himself.

At this moment, braving the heavy rain, a group of people, drenched like drowned rats, quickly entered the cave.

Ye Kong also took the opportunity to follow them in, standing in the middle of the crowd, with his head lowered.

A group of people stood aside, listening to the few people at the top reporting today's progress. Elder Changzhou and Hu Yishao, who had fought with Ye Kong earlier, described Ye Kong in glowing terms, but didn't mention their own utter incompetence.

"It doesn't matter, Ye Kong has always been cunning. Tonight's heavy rain will definitely halve Ye Kong's combat power. Tomorrow morning, we will narrow the encirclement and trap Ye Kong in Pingmu Li, trapping him for three days and three nights. By then, even if he doesn't die, he will be skinned alive."

Ye Kong looked up, the person speaking was old and decrepit, Ye Kong had never seen him before, did seeking revenge now require bringing the whole family?

"However, Ye Kong is really difficult to catch. Although he has lost his spiritual power, he has a bag of treasures, which are incredibly powerful, and we can't get close to him."

Lei Bao was also among them.

"I have already prepared." The old man took out a gong from his sleeve, blew on it, and the gong actually became as big as a person. "If Ye Kong takes out a spiritual weapon to escape tomorrow, you can take out this gong, which will definitely collect all his spiritual weapons in the gong."

Ye Kong looked closely, it was actually the Tongtian Gong!

The Tongtian Gong was a treasure spiritual weapon, one of the top ten spiritual weapons in the Upper Realm, capable of collecting all the spiritual weapons in the world.

The person who could obtain this gong must be someone who held a high position and influence in the Upper Realm. Now, the Taichu Academy has signed a secret joint agreement with the Upper Realm, and the disciples of both sides are treated as allies. Logically speaking, Ye Kong, as a disciple of the Taichu Academy, is also on the same front as the people of the Upper Realm.

But this person, as the leader of the mission to capture Ye Kong, was openly opposing the Upper Realm and the Taichu Academy. If he informed the Taichu Academy of this matter, wouldn't he be able to retreat unscathed?

"Alright, you may withdraw!" The old man waved his hand, allowing the people standing below to rest.

Ye Kong casually pulled a disciple, "Wait, let's go together."

The disciple looked at Ye Kong with unfamiliar eyes and asked, "Which sect are you from?"

"What about you?" Ye Kong asked.

"I am from Qianfo Cave," the disciple replied.

"Oh, I am from Changqing Academy, Elder Changzhou is my master," Ye Kong said.

"Really? Elder Changzhou is very powerful!" the disciple praised.

"Yes, of course my master is powerful!" Ye Kong said, also considered to be familiar with this little disciple, Ye Kong then continued to inquire about the matters of this mission?

"We don't know either, it seems that the master was ordered to do something big, so we all followed, I heard…"

"Can you guys be quiet for a while!" someone rudely interrupted from the side.
