Ge Feng was dissatisfied with Wu Yuan's threat. The incident had occurred during the siege of a sect in the South Sea. Wu Yuan was also the captain in charge of the operation. Ge Feng was responsible for scouting the situation of that sect, but he looked down on human cultivators. After just a cursory look around the periphery, he went back and told Wu Yuan that the other party was unprepared. Wu Yuan, after getting the intelligence, had the same thought and did not verify it. When they charged in, they fell into the other party's ambush. Despite their courage, all three foreign cultivators in the squad at the time died. Afterward, the two of them just found an excuse to cover it up.
Wang Changkun, who was behind them, didn't know about the past events of this squad he had joined, so he was unaware of what the two demons were talking about. At the same time, he was thinking, 'Those few cultivators ahead do indeed look like they have over-exhausted their strength. It seems my previous feeling was wrong.' Then Wang Changkun gave a look to the other five cultivators behind him, meaning to act according to the other party's decision.
Although they were also human cultivators, they had nothing but hatred for the humans on the Desolate Moon Continent, and not a shred of pity. As for the demon cultivators' rape and plunder, what did it have to do with them? If it weren't for the detestable cultivators of the Desolate Moon Continent, how could they have been born in that sunless space, and why would they have to face the threat of death at all times?
Just as Wu Yuan and the others were indulging in their beautiful fantasies, the next moment Wu Yuan couldn't help but let out a "Huh?" because the five people they were chasing, after landing in the forest, did not immediately use immortal arts like Earth Evasion or Wood Evasion. Instead, they immediately split into two groups. One group had four people, while the other, strangely, had only one person. After landing, they fled in two different directions.
This exclamation from Wu Yuan made even Wang Changkun probe with his divine sense again. Upon seeing it, he also had a look of confusion. Had a disagreement arisen among the other party during their escape? Otherwise, why would one person leave alone? Wasn't that just asking for a quicker death?
Wu Yuan looked at the lone cultivator speeding away. He was only at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. He then turned back to Wang Changkun and said, "There might have been some internal strife on their side. I'll trouble Fellow Daoist Wang to arrange for two people to go and kill that person. We'll focus our full strength on the remaining few."
In his view, sending two cultivators to kill Li Yan was already looking highly upon him. Besides, how could he be willing to give up the female cultivator here?
Wang Changkun nodded. At this time, they were less than forty li from where Li Yan and the others had landed. Just as Wang Changkun was about to turn around and make arrangements, his expression also changed. In his divine sense, the four people who had been walking together suddenly disappeared without a trace, while only the lone cultivator who had left continued to flee desperately.
At the same time, the two demon cultivators, Wu Yuan and Ge Feng, who had been paying attention to the forest, also let out a sharp shout. "There's a formation master among them."
Only a formation master could so quickly deploy a concealment formation under their divine sense without them noticing at all.
A vicious glint flashed in Wu Yuan's eyes. The others didn't matter, but how could he let that stunning female cultivator escape his grasp? Later, he would definitely make that formation master wish he were dead. After capturing that female cultivator, he would train her into a wanton slut for his own pleasure to satisfy the evil fire in his heart now.
So Wu Yuan could no longer be bothered to urge Wang Changkun to arrange for people to chase the lone escaping cultivator. With a wild flash of black light under his feet, the Flying Demon Cabinet crossed the forty-li distance in just two breaths and then hovered above the forest where Li Yan and the others had landed.
Wu Yuan was anxious. He hadn't even given Wang Changkun a chance to send people away, and had rushed here in a hurry. Even Ge Feng, on the side, had a lustful gleam in his eyes and had already begun to search the surroundings. However, the cruel living environment of the Demon Realm had made the two demons maintain their vigilance. They did not immediately fly into the forest.
Seeing the lustful and anxious look of the two demon cultivators, Wang Changkun felt even more contempt for Wu Yuan. For a moment, he didn't immediately arrange for people to carry out Wu Yuan's order. That would make him seem too easily "casually arranged." Anyway, from his observation, that lone escaping cultivator could not escape their pursuit, so there was no need to rush.
Wu Yuan looked at the forest below. After a close-range scan, when he raised his head, he found that the six cultivators on the Demon Cabinet hadn't moved at all. He couldn't help but feel dissatisfied.
He raised his arm again and pointed in another direction, saying, "Fellow Daoist Wang, quickly send two people to intercept and kill that cultivator. We will go down now and check the vicinity. Don't let these people escape using a concealment formation and earth evasion. Hmm?..."
As Wu Yuan spoke, his expression changed, and the rest of his words seemed to get stuck in his throat.
...
At the same time, in the dense forest just two li below Wu Yuan and the others, Bai Rou's group of four were quietly peering at the people on the Demon Cabinet in the air through the gaps in the leaves. They did not rashly probe with their divine senses, lest they be discovered.
"Those two demon cultivators didn't leave. Did Junior Brother Li's plan fail?"
Seeing that the two demon cultivators on the Demon Cabinet had no intention of leaving, and were instead pointing in the direction of Li Yan's escape, as if arranging for the cultivators behind them to pursue, Yan Feijun couldn't help but feel nervous. In this case, the pressure on their side would not just increase, but they would face extreme danger. All three of the enemy's Pseudo-Core cultivators were going to stay.
He secretly transmitted his voice to the other three. In fact, he had another thought that he didn't dare to say out loud: Li Yan's real intention was to have the four of them attract the enemy's attention, while he used the magical treasure on his body to escape alone. But he didn't dare to say such things carelessly, lest disaster come from his own mouth. Of course, if he were truly facing death at this moment, he wouldn't have any qualms about any complaints.
Hu Xiaowang also stared intently at the sky. He wasn't sure if Yan Feijun's formation could deceive these demon cultivators. If the other party didn't pursue Li Yan but came to kill them all, the consequences would be severe. But things had come to this, and he could only take it one step at a time. At most, he would have to fight with his life.
After hearing Yan Feijun's words, Bai Rou just shook her head gently. Her soft voice sounded in the minds of the three. "Junior Brother Li is meticulous. I have known him for several years, and he has never broken his word to anyone."
Although Bai Rou was also nervous, she had an inexplicable sense of trust in Li Yan from the bottom of her heart. A person praised by Shuang Qingqing, how could he be the type to talk nonsense and break his promises? But her voice transmission, probably only she herself believed. Even Sun Guoshu had the thought of being used as bait by Li Yan. At least ten breaths had passed since Li Yan separated from them, but those two demon cultivators still showed no signs of going over. They didn't even bother to look in the direction Li Yan had fled, but were more concerned with them here.
Just then, they suddenly saw one of the demon cultivators, who was talking to the human cultivators with his head turned, suddenly turn his head again and look in the direction Li Yan had fled. And the other demon cultivator's divine sense, which had been lingering around them, also suddenly paused, and then quickly withdrew, as if it had been startled.
...
Wang Changkun's just-raised arm froze again. The abnormal behavior of Wu Yuan and Ge Feng surprised him. He didn't know what had happened. He followed Wu Yuan's gaze and looked in the direction where the lone human cultivator had fled. But he didn't sense anything unusual. In his divine sense, that cultivator was still fleeing desperately, and there were no other cultivators around him.
Just as Wang Changkun looked at Wu Yuan with confusion, about to ask if they should pursue, Wu Yuan was already urging him repeatedly. "Ge Feng, what we talked about earlier, I'll let you have it. You and Fellow Daoist Wang, quickly lead the others to kill or capture those four cultivators. Fellow Daoist Wang, I will personally go after that cultivator. Quickly, quickly, all of you get off the Demon Cabinet!"
The first half of Wu Yuan's sentence was directed at Ge Feng, and the second half was an instruction to Wang Changkun. And his tone was impatient, wishing they would immediately fly off the Demon Cabinet so he could quickly go after that cultivator.
Although Wang Changkun didn't know why Wu Yuan's attitude had suddenly changed so drastically, he was extremely dissatisfied with Wu Yuan's attitude. But thinking of the orders from above, that before finding the secret realm, they must cooperate with the demon cultivators' actions, he also suppressed his displeasure. Although the demon cultivators currently only had about ten thousand people on the Desolate Moon Continent, Wang Changkun and his group were even fewer, only over four hundred. In the vastness of the Desolate Moon Continent, if their four hundred people were scattered, they would instantly lose sight of each other. Besides, the Demon Clan had remnants left on the Desolate Moon Continent who were extremely familiar with it. Now was the time for both sides to make use of each other.
Thinking of this, Wang Changkun could only follow orders. Although he was dissatisfied with Wu Yuan, he was actually very curious. Why did Wu Yuan suddenly change his mind and give up that stunning female cultivator? Wu Yuan's action was simply unbelievable. Demon cultivators were brutal, with stronger primitive desires. What could make Wu Yuan change his mind in the face of beauty?
So Wang Changkun's divine sense once again swept towards the lone escaping cultivator. The result was that there was nothing abnormal. He was confident that his cultivation was a notch higher than either Wu Yuan or Ge Feng. How could he have found nothing? For a moment, Wang Changkun was also clueless.
But at this time, Wu Yuan didn't give him much time to think. He had already begun to shrink the Demon Cabinet, leaving Wang Changkun and the others suspended in mid-air.
So Wang Changkun directly waved his hand and led the other five to fly down towards the forest below. But at this time, Ge Feng did not follow.
Ge Feng snorted coldly and questioned with a hostile tone, "Wu Yuan, what is the meaning of this? That human cultivator, why do you need to personally take action? You are the captain. For such a small matter, I can handle it."
Only then did Wu Yuan remember that what he could sense, Ge Feng, whose cultivation was only a line below his own, could also sense. A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and a sharp glint also gradually rose in Ge Feng's eyes. A hint of fighting intent began to permeate between the two demons.
Wang Changkun and the five foreign cultivators behind him just stood there in the air, looking at the two strangely. Apart from Wang Changkun, the other five also cast their divine senses towards Li Yan's direction in the distance. Although they were taciturn, they were not blind. Of course, they knew that the abnormality of these two demon cultivators was all due to that cultivator. The result was the same. No matter how they probed, they didn't find anything abnormal about the escaping cultivator. If there was anything abnormal, it was his disheveled appearance and desperate flight.
Wu Yuan felt everyone staring at them, and that cultivator was getting farther and farther away. The fierce glint in his eyes suddenly disappeared. He put on a straight face and said to Ge Feng, "There are two Pseudo-Core cultivators here. If both of us go, Fellow Daoist Wang and the others will have a hard time dealing with them."
Ge Feng smiled contemptuously, as if seeing through Wu Yuan. "Just two Pseudo-Core human cultivators. Normally, I could kill them both by myself. Besides, Fellow Daoist Wang just needs to find them and keep a close watch from a distance. The other party can't do anything to Wang Changkun's group of six. To deal with one cultivator, how much time would it take for the two of us to go and come back?"
