#2738 - They all have eight hundred eyes
“Qingli, how long do you think they can hold out? Who will be the first to lose patience?”
Inside the cabin, Jun Wuxie leisurely sipped his tea, smiling as he asked Mo Qingli.
“Logically speaking, it should be the people from the other top-tier orthodoxies.
They will most likely jump out first.
Unless they know that Floating World Three Thousand has even stronger assassins hidden.
And that assassin from Floating World Three Thousand probably doesn't want to be stuck in a stalemate either.
If he wants to lure out the people from other top-tier orthodoxies, he will definitely make a move.
It just depends on whether Protector Zhou can catch it in time.
If Protector Zhou reacts quickly and catches it in time, the people from the other top-tier orthodoxies will most likely fall for it.”
“Watch and see, things will soon develop in the direction you said.”
Jun Wuxie put down his teacup and looked towards the cabin door.
No sooner had his words fallen than the battle situation changed.
A groan of pain came from the void shattered by Protector Zhou's palm, and although no figure was visible, a lot of blood dripped down.
This startled Protector Zhou.
That's not right.
His mind reacted quickly.
He was very clear about the state of his battle with the assassins.
Without him going all out, it was impossible for him to injure the opponent so easily.
There was only one possibility: the other party was doing it on purpose.
Judging from this, there really was a stronger assassin hiding in the shadows, the leader of this assassination mission.
That assassin leader was directing the assassins who were besieging him.
Was he doing this to lure out the people from other top-tier orthodoxies?
Protector Zhou's mind raced, and he made a decision in an instant.
Since the assassins from Floating World Three Thousand were doing this, he had to cooperate.
After all, the goals were the same.
Regardless of whether that was their purpose or not, he would try it anyway.
After injuring an assassin, a hint of excitement appeared on Protector Zhou's face, and the confidence on his face greatly increased.
He roared, and while dodging the assassins' attacks, he launched an even more violent counterattack.
Immediately, two more voids shattered, groans of pain followed one after another, and blood splattered.
At the same time, he himself was deliberately stabbed by an assassin, and his chest was pierced, dripping with blood.
The killing power of the Floating World Three Thousand assassins frantically destroyed his vitality within his body.
However, he was not worried. He had trump cards on him, killer weapons in his body, and special pills.
He hurriedly refined the pills, refining the remaining killing power in his body, while pretending to be weak, his face pale, coughing up blood.
Rumble!
Protector Zhou's secret technique, like a violent sea of clouds, emerged, shattering the surrounding void.
Three assassins were shaken out from within, revealing their bodies.
The three of them were wearing white clothes inlaid with crimson, their eyes were indifferent, and the pointed, thorn-like weapons in their hands were dripping with blood, staring coldly at Protector Zhou.
At this time, the three assassins were bleeding, and their faces were somewhat pale.
Cloud-like immortal power was flowing from the wounds on their bodies, which was Protector Zhou's immortal power killing, also destroying their vitality.
Could the Floating World Three Thousand assassins quickly expel Protector Zhou's immortal power?
Only they themselves and Protector Zhou knew best, after all, they were the parties involved in the battle.
To outsiders, all of this seemed normal, a result of the battle continuing to this point.
“Have you finally been unable to hide?”
Protector Zhou looked at the two bloody holes in his chest, blood still flowing out.
“Zhou, you have already suffered heavy damage, penetrated by our Blood God Thorn. How long can your life essence last?
It won't be a problem to hold on until we kill you!
You infamous Floating World Three Thousand assassins should have been wiped out long ago!
Kill!”
Protector Zhou erupted, and suddenly the wind and clouds changed color in the sky, and the sea of clouds surged.
A huge Dao diagram emerged in the rolling sea of clouds.
Rumble!
Above the sky, from within that cloud sea Dao diagram, suddenly immortal mountains emerged, suppressing downwards, covering the six directions.
The bodies of the Floating World Three Thousand assassins instantly transformed into many phantoms.
Some rushed into the sky to resist the immortal mountain phenomena evolved by the suppressing secret technique, and some rushed madly towards Protector Zhou, launching a fierce attack.
In this round of attacks, the immortal mountains collapsed, the phantoms were destroyed, and blood splattered.
Protector Zhou and the three assassins retreated violently, each covered in blood.
Blood soaked their clothes, dripping down along the corners.
They had all become bloodied figures.
“Do you still have the power to assassinate?”
Although Protector Zhou's face was pale, his aura was strong.
The three assassins looked at the cracks all over their bodies, their pale faces extremely gloomy.
“Hahaha! You Floating World Three Thousand assassins are only stronger when hiding in the dark to assassinate. You are elusive and hard to guard against.
Once you confront head-on, you are actually just so-so!
Today, if you continue, no matter how badly this protector is injured, it will be enough to kill you!”
“Boastful!
Today, we will let you go for now, but one day we will take your head!
Those who are on our Floating World Three Thousand death list, no one can escape the inevitable ending.
It was like that in the past, and it is even more so now!”
After the three assassins finished speaking, they retreated a distance at the same time, and then prepared to hide and leave.
Protector Zhou did not chase, watching them leave.
He knew very well that the other party was only putting on a show, trying to lure out the people from other top-tier orthodoxies.
And that was precisely his purpose.
Buzz—
Just as the three assassins were about to disappear, the surrounding void buzzed.
Profound black immortal light bloomed, illuminating the mountains, rivers, and sky.
There were several secret technique Dao diagrams, as if appearing out of thin air, sealing off this area.
The three assassins who were about to enter the void were forced out and looked sharply in a certain direction.
“Since you're here, don't be in such a hurry to leave!”
A confident voice resounded in this sky.
A group of figures appeared, precisely the people from the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect.
“Well, Floating World Three Thousand, after countless ages, I didn't expect you to make a comeback.
Just now, the scene of you assassinating the fellow Daoist of the Jinyun Immortal Sect was wonderful.
However, I think you are nothing more than that.
The fellow Daoist of the Jinyun Immortal Sect is still one step ahead, and in the end, you retreated.
However, the fellow Daoist of the Jinyun Immortal Sect let you go, but it does not mean that our Xuanyuan Immortal Sect will let you go.”
“Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, do you want to stand against our Floating World Three Thousand?
Have you thought about the consequences?”
An assassin looked coldly at the protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect and said coldly: “Your purpose here is only to snatch Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian.
This is your primary purpose!
That Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian are now in the immortal boat, and the protector of the Jinyun Immortal Sect is seriously injured. It is a good time for you to achieve your goal.
You are not using your strength on this matter. Are you sure you want to target us?”
“Well, this protector thinks you are right.”
A certain protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect nodded, looking like he agreed.
He looked at Protector Zhou and said: “Fellow Daoist Zhou, our two orthodoxies have always coexisted harmoniously.
Today, you were attacked by the Floating World Three Thousand assassins. At the critical moment of life and death, we suddenly arrived to save you from danger.
You should repay such kindness.
I think you should hand over Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian to us.
I wonder what you think?
Let's not hurt the harmony. This protector doesn't want to have any physical conflict with Fellow Daoist Zhou, after all, you are seriously injured now.”
“You want to take advantage of the fire?”
Protector Zhou glared at them, but couldn't help but laugh inwardly.
The words of the people from the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect all hid the meaning of threat, with a determined posture.
They thought they were the mantis stalking the cicada, able to reap the benefits today, but they didn't know that they were actually the cicada being hunted.
“Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are wrong.
How can you say such unpleasant words?
As the saying goes, one should repay a drop of kindness with a spring.
We saved you from danger today, shouldn't you repay us?”
“Heh, when have you ever been kind to us?
The Floating World Three Thousand assassins were already preparing to retreat, and our danger has been eliminated.
Now it is the people of your Xuanyuan Immortal Sect who are coming to rob us.
Our Jinyun Immortal Sect has never feared anyone.
Since you are here to rob us, you can come as you please.
However, your target is us, so don't trap the Floating World Three Thousand assassins, let them go.
After all, with the Floating World Three Thousand assassins here, we can't feel at ease.”
“Leave? No one can leave!”
The protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect said with a smile: “Fellow Daoist Zhou, it's still the same sentence.
Hand over Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian to us now, and we can avoid hurting the harmony.
At that time, whether it is you or the people from Floating World Three Thousand, we will not make things difficult for you, and you can leave.
If you insist on resisting, then the result will be different.”
The protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect looked at the three assassins of Floating World Three Thousand and said, “We originally had no ideas about you, but your fate depends on what Fellow Daoist Zhou does.
If he hands over Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian, you can leave.
If he refuses to hand over Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian, we have no choice but to take action.
The final result may be that the fellow Daoist of the Jinyun Immortal Sect was assassinated by the Floating World Three Thousand assassins, and we arrived too late, only to kill the Floating World Three Thousand assassins and奪回 Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian.”
The protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect was full of smiles.
He was putting pressure on the assassins of Floating World Three Thousand.
The meaning is that if you want to live, help our Xuanyuan Immortal Sect deal with the Jinyun Immortal Sect, otherwise, you will all have to die!
“Zhou, their attitude is already so clear, you should know what's good for you and call out Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian, hand them over to the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, so we can all live.”
Otherwise, I'm afraid we can only stand on the side of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect!”
The assassin from Floating World Three Thousand said this.
They received instructions from their leader to try their best to force the Zhou to take action, making him fight fiercely with the protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect.
“Alright, you can come and try.
Things have reached such a point that this protector has no other thoughts, only to stare at you people from Floating World Three Thousand.
Even if I have to give up this life, I will drag you down with me today!
As for the people from the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, although they are hateful, it is still better for Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian to fall into their hands than into yours from Floating World Three Thousand.
Our Jinyun Immortal Sect can still seek an explanation from the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect at that time, and perhaps even get the people back.
If they fall into your hands, then there will be no hope!”
“Are you sick?”
The assassin from Floating World Three Thousand angrily said: “Since the ending is the same, why don’t you just hand over Yuan Chu and Su Qingqian to the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect, and insist on risking your own life?”
The assassin deliberately said with a face full of anger.
“It’s not the same, at least this protector can drag you down with me, so I won’t be lonely on the road to the Yellow Springs!”
Protector Zhou looked as if he had put life and death aside.
Inside the cabin, Jun Wuxie smiled and shook his head, and Mo Qingli was also very speechless.
They looked at each other, all three groups had eight hundred schemes in their hearts.
They were going around in circles here.
The assassin from Floating World Three Thousand wanted the protector of the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect to fight with Protector Zhou, to force Protector Zhou to use his trump card.
Protector Zhou wanted to keep his trump card, so he was delaying time here, wanting the leader of the Floating World Three Thousand assassins to become impatient and take the initiative to assassinate the people from the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect.
And the Xuanyuan Immortal Sect wanted to obtain himself and Qingli without bloodshed, so they would use the lives of the Floating World Three Thousand assassins as a threat, forcing them to take sides and put pressure on Protector Zhou together.
The three parties all had their own thoughts, all old foxes.
