"Why aren't you acting yet, Vice Alliance Leaders?"
Chou Yuanfeng retreated rapidly, asking furiously.
The four Vice Alliance Leaders he called out to hesitated, but finally gritted their teeth and stepped forward.
They were the Vice Alliance Leaders of the Formation Heaven Alliance, and they were in the same boat as Chou Yuanfeng. If Chou Yuanfeng truly fell, they would inevitably be affected. It was better to help Chou Yuanfeng kill Xu Yi, and then let Chou Yuanfeng bear any repercussions.
Two of the four Vice Alliance Leaders flashed to Chou Yuanfeng's side, taking out their respective magical treasures and helping Chou Yuanfeng kill the golden armored soldiers.
The other two headed straight for Xu Yi, with the intention of capturing her alive.
"Be careful!"
Wang Yang wanted to go forward and help, but before he could get close, he was forced to his knees by the immense pressure, and could only remind Xu Yi loudly.
"You've come at the perfect time."
Xu Yi narrowed her eyes. Yuwen Yuan's centuries of planning were not that simple.
She stomped on the ground fiercely, her figure instantly floating into the air. As the two Vice Alliance Leaders got closer and closer to her, she took out another scroll, grasped one end of a pole, and unfurled it.
The scroll unfurled, depicting a murky, surging Yellow River.
The two Vice Alliance Leaders felt a chill down their backs, and a bone-chilling killing intent struck their hearts. They both cried out that it was not good.
Indeed, in the next moment, the pattern on the scroll seemed to come to life, wriggling slightly, and the river water seemed to come alive.
And in the sky, an identical pattern to the scroll appeared, but magnified countless times.
Before the two could react, a deafening roar echoed through the heavens.
A large opening suddenly split in the scroll in the sky, and the murky river water poured down from the heavens, gushing out, carrying bursts of spray, and surging towards the two.
The murky river water was filled with negative emotions that ordinary cultivators could hardly imagine: the five poisons, six desires, seven emotions, eight sufferings, nine tribulations. One touch would bring about karma.
The two Vice Alliance Leaders were the first to bear the brunt, and naturally felt the hidden danger in the river water.
At this moment, the two deeply regretted it. If they had known that Xu Yi possessed endless treasures, they might as well have chosen to stand by. Now, they had to involve themselves.
However, they still possessed the pride of Tribulation Transcending cultivators and were unwilling to bow to a junior. After exchanging glances, they suddenly separated and headed towards the densely populated areas.
The river water behind them also split into two streams and pursued them.
"Run! Run quickly!"
"Don't you come here!"
"Help!"
"Ah!!!"
"..."
Screams of panic and shouts erupted in chaos.
All the formation cultivators were stunned by the sudden turn of events.
When gods fight, mortals suffer. They now truly understood the weight of this saying.
Even Tribulation Transcending cultivators dared not touch the river water, so how could they avoid it?
But their escape speed was far from matching the speed of the incoming river water.
With a surge of waves, countless formation cultivators were submerged.
The two Vice Alliance Leaders looked at the scene behind them, a look of embarrassment flashing in their eyes.
They thought Xu Yi would consider the others and give up, but they did not expect her to be so ruthless.
The regret in their hearts surged, and their speed did not slow down at all.
When Wang Yang was submerged by the surge, he did not scream in panic like the people around him. Instead, he chose to silently close his eyes and lie on the ground.
His wish had been fulfilled, and he had no regrets.
It was just that when he left, he should have told his junior sister that he could no longer bring her roasted chicken from the mountain.
Right, his fifth junior brother had always wanted his iron formation disk. He should have given it to him before leaving.
Also, he had forgotten to remind their third uncle about the wine brewing time. By the time he realized it, those bottles of good wine would have likely turned sour.
As for master...
It was only now that Wang Yang realized that he still had so many things unfinished, and so many words unspoken.
If he could have another chance, he definitely would... Wait, it's been so long, why hasn't anything happened to him yet?
Wang Yang held his breath and sat up from the river water in confusion, surprised to find a faint light screen around his body. The light screen blocked the river water from him, preventing him from being affected.
He slowly raised his hand and opened his palm, revealing the jade slip inside.
It was the jade slip that the senior had thrown out earlier!
She had thought of everything beforehand.
Only then did Wang Yang understand that this jade slip was not only evidence but also a protective magical treasure.
He bit his lower lip in annoyance. He had been too reckless. He should have prepared thoroughly like the senior before coming.
While Wang Yang was regretting, the cultivators who were struggling in the water also discovered the mystery of the jade slips, their faces filled with the joy of surviving a disaster.
The two Vice Alliance Leaders naturally did not ignore these changes. Their eyes flashed, and they directly snatched the jade slips from two unlucky cultivators who had not fallen into the water.
However, to their surprise, as soon as they touched the jade slips, the river water behind them seemed to go mad and surged towards them even more violently.
The obscure and decaying aura in the river water made their scalps tingle.
A fellow Daoist dies, but this poor Daoist lives.
They were in danger themselves, so how could they help Chou Yuanfeng? Escaping was the priority.
Without a word, the two immediately dashed towards the outside of the plaza.
Chou Yuanfeng, who was killing a golden armored soldier, saw this and curled his lips into a sinister smile.
Trying to escape?
No one would escape today.
Bang! Bang!
The escaping Vice Alliance Leaders were repelled by an invisible screen, almost swallowed by the river water. Terrified, they frantically fled upwards, barely escaping.
The life-threatening crisis made it impossible for them to maintain their composure, and they cursed, "Xu Yi, you're going too far!"
"That's right, we are seniors in the Way of Formations, yet you're trying to kill us all. Do you really not intend to leave us any way out?"
"Xu Yi, you..."
"Shut up!" Xu Yi first let out a cold shout to interrupt the two's roars, then waved her hand to temporarily calm the surging river water, and said slowly, "You two must have misunderstood. The barrier outside was not set up by me."
"If not you, then who!"
"Clearly, you have ill intentions and foresaw this!"
The two Vice Alliance Leaders did not believe Xu Yi's words at all.
Xu Yi had heaven-defying means and countless magical treasures. Naturally, she could have secretly set up a large formation outside the plaza to prevent them from leaving.
Moreover, besides Xu Yi, no one else could do it...
Wait, there seemed to be one other person who could.
The two subconsciously looked at Chou Yuanfeng and saw him with a cold smile on his lips.
Without needing further words, the two immediately understood that they had indeed misunderstood Xu Yi.
Upon learning the truth, they did not calm down. Instead, they became even more enraged.
"Chou Yuanfeng! What do you mean by this! Are you trying to trap us all here to die!"
Seeing this, Xu Yi's thoughts turned, and she made the golden armored soldiers temporarily stop attacking.
She intended to watch a play first, a play of dogs biting dogs.
If the play was brilliant, perhaps she could achieve her desired outcome without lifting a finger.
