Chapter 235 - The Scum Is A Braggart

Everyone's face is as dark as the bottom of the pot when the realization dawned on them. The Xinfaxian Sect is planning to cultivate disciples that are both a sword cultivator and a mage. Just like Cheng Sheng and Li Tian. Fortunately, You Rou, the Xinfaxian Sect's mage disciple aside from Cheng Sheng and Li Tian, is devoted on being a mage and dislikes swords. Or else, there'll be another sword-and-mage cultivator in Xinfaxian Sect.

Sun Yi and Feng Mo when they saw their hostile gaze. "…" uh, did we overdo it? They looked at each other.

Sun Yi as a proud person is well-known. Meanwhile, Feng Mo is just all brawn and less brain. Thus, both can brag, added to the fact that they are proud with their own people, thus their boasting skills are great. Well, their boasting isn't unfounded… and since what they are boasting is true, this is just rubbing salt on the others' wounds.

Sun Yi and Feng Mo thought a fight might break out. However, they are not afraid. Against the Shanliangde Sect, Sun Yi can hold off Xi Ming and Gong Xian alone. He still hasn't shown the peak of his strength. As for Feng Mo, he can fight Xi Xing, added to the fact that Xi Xing is injured…

And then there are Kang Ce and Jing Kang… but Sun Yi knew Kang Ce would rather watch them fight against each other and conserve his strength, and although he is bad-tempered, but he isn't without a reason. Jing Kang is a levelheaded person, so he wouldn't fight out of provocation.

As for the remaining Zunjingde Sect and Qian Lin… they're at the other side of the wall, so how can they join the fight on this side?

Of course, this is just an 'if'. It is different in reality. Everyone here are strong since they have reached this stage of the competition, so, of course, they wouldn't fight just because they were provoked. Also, they really have to conserve their strength.

Also, Xi Ming is also a levelheaded person like Jing Kang. Xi Ming also is a pacifist. Xi Xing is his younger brother and a follower, and also a follower of Gong Xian who, also wouldn't fight, since his mind is full of just his shifu and doesn't care about intrigues and whatnot.

Xi Ming is a likable person because of his good temper. "Your group is really powerful." He helplessly smiled.

Sun Yi's eyes turned into crescents as he smiled brightly. "Don't worry, eldest young master Xi. I am a magnanimous person, so I won't ask you to pay me back with the magic pills and potions I gave you." He told him.

"If this is because I praised you just now, please do not misunderstand me, second young master Sun since I am since with my praise and not flattering you, or any of your group – " Xi Ming said.

"I know." Sun Yi said.

"Hmph!" Kang Ce sneered when he saw that the Shanliangde Sect has no desire to fight Sun Yi and Feng Mo. He doesn't expect anything from Jing Kang since Jing Kang reticent.

Sun Yi chuckled while Feng Mo secretly sighed in relief. The Zunjingde Sect has no desire to fight either, since Jing Kang is on the other side of the wall and is alone. And they know Jing Kang, if fight is avoidable, then he won't fight.

BANG! Another carcass of a gigantic insect fell. The Zunjingde Sect and Qian Lin felt helpless.

"… are Chen Han, Li Tian and the Huakai Sect plan to bury us here with these insects' carcasses?" Jing Hei asked.

Jing Cheng took a deep breath. "Do any of you have a message talisman?" he asked.

They shook their head.

"If you want to send them a message – " it was Sun Yi. " – why don't you send them a sword glare above?" he suggested.

"Oh!" they muttered as they suddenly felt enlightened.

Jing Cheng immediately infused his sword with qi before he waved it upwards. They have to hurry since Li Tian's Suppressing Array is weighing them down, literally.

Chen Han, Tang Zhe and Shan Lu are near the mouth of the abyss and saw a glaring red light came out of the abyss. "The Zunjingde Sect!" they exclaimed as they hurried to clean up the insects.

"Wait!" Chen Han paused when he realized something. "Ah Sheng isn't there?! Or was he injured and so incapable to send us a signal?" he asked.

"It's possible the former." Tang Zhe told him. His body was soaked in sweat since, aside from killing the insects, they have to bear the Suppressing Array of Li Tian. Fortunately, it wasn't Cheng Sheng using the Suppressing Array, or the weight added to their body suppressing them is ten folds.

Chen Han felt anxious knowing Cheng Sheng wasn't present, but he pressed it down his heart and focused on their current task. "Ah Tian!" his pupils shrank when he felt the Suppressing Array becoming weaker.

"I'm… fine." Li Tian, Tang Yun and Guo Cheng collapsed. "Hurry up…" Li Tian told them and glanced at the insect that pounced on them.

Tang Yun raised his sword to slash and Guo Cheng threw a talisman on the insect. Li Tian finished it with a spell. Just as the last word of the spell left his lips, blood trickled out of the corner of his lips before he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Ah Tian!" Chen Han cried before gritted his teeth. He increased his strength and speed and then ran to Li Tian before picking him up. "We can just jump down the abyss since these insects are avoiding it. Go!" he told Tang Zhe before he boarded his sword with Li Tian in his arms.

Tang Zhe and Shan Lu are quick. Tang Zhe picked up Tang Yun while Shan Lu picked up Guo Cheng and followed behind Chen Han. They immediately dodged the incoming flying insects before they head down the abyss.
