941: Chapter 934: Who is the Lamb?
Who is the Tiger?
Arrows as thick as adult fingers, like a meteor shower, shot towards Li Dongtian and the others.
These densely packed arrows were made of a special metallic material, and their tips were extremely sharp.
Under the illumination of torches on both sides, the arrowheads faintly reflected a bit of light.
Thousands of arrows suddenly filled the corridor.
Only by sticking close to the walls on either side could one narrowly evade them, but everything happened too suddenly.
Even the people from the three major sects couldn’t react in time.
“Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Ah!
Ah~”
The endless corridor was filled with screams.
The experts above the Innate Realm could still manage to hold on for a while, but those whose strength was only at the Innate Realm tried to release their True Energy Force to defend against the dense arrow rain.
Unfortunately, the arrows directly penetrated the True Energy Force they emitted and mercilessly entered their bodies.
With their bodies tightly pressed against the left wall, Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, the dense arrow rain only brushed past their clothes, not causing them any harm.
Xia Zining, whose hand was held by Ye Chenfeng, heard heart-wrenching screams echoing in her ears.
Through the corner of her eye, she saw people being turned into beehives by the arrows, which greatly shocked her.
She glanced at Ye Chenfeng, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion, as she still didn’t know that Ye Chenfeng had mastered the internal mechanism map of the Ghost King Sect’s relics.
After seeing the puzzled look in Xia Zining’s eyes beside him, Ye Chenfeng whispered, “Zining, I don’t have time to explain right now.
Just remember to always stay close to me.”
As Ye Chenfeng whispered to Xia Zining, people from Cloud Soaring Palace, Earth Demon Hall, Yun Tian Sect, and other sects present were clumsily defending against the arrow rain while learning from Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining to press their bodies tightly against the wall.
“Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh—”
A series of piercing sounds continuously echoed in the long corridor.
The dense arrow rain lasted for about five to six minutes, and its intensity slowly weakened until it completely stopped.
The whole corridor suddenly became silent, filled only with the sound of heavy breathing.
However, after the dense arrow rain stopped, not only the people from lesser sects, but even those from the three major sects still kept their bodies close to the walls, their gazes all focused on Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining.
Now, thinking about their earlier mocking tone towards Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining, it seemed even more ridiculous than a fool’s.
Feeling the many gazes around him, Ye Chenfeng, holding Xia Zining’s hand, left the wall and again moved back into the seemingly endless corridor.
Seeing Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining’s actions, the people from the three major sects left the wall one by one, and only then did the smaller sects dare to slowly move away from the wall.
After the intense arrow rain, Cloud Soaring Palace, Earth Demon Hall, Yun Tian Sect, and people following Yun Tian Sect, like Sect Leader Fang Zhiyong, were not injured but only appeared very disheveled.
However, almost all the higher-level experts from the smaller sects died, and those few who survived had more or less been struck by arrows.
Zheng Qijiang and his son Zheng Zhiming, who were scouting ahead, faced the arrow rain first and were overwhelmed by it almost instantly.
After confirming that the corridor was temporarily safe, everyone present glared at Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining in anger, especially those from the smaller sects, whose friends or relatives had died in the recent arrow rain.
A disciple from a lesser sect, at the Middle Stage of Innate level, angrily shouted at Ye Chenfeng, “You bastard, you knew there was danger just now.
Why didn’t you warn us?”
Ye Chenfeng, holding Xia Zining’s hand, glanced at the Innate Middle Stage man in front of him and saw an arrow wound on his arm.
He indifferently said, “You will die soon.”
After hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, the man in the Middle Stage of the Innate Realm’s eyes bulged as he exclaimed, “What did you say?
Are you planning to kill me right here?”
“There’s no need for me to make a move.
Look at those who were killed by the rain of arrows, their bodies are slowly decaying.
That means the arrows were definitely poisoned.” Ye Chenfeng casually remarked.
Upon hearing Ye Chenfeng’s words, the few surviving injured experts in the Innate Realm looked down at the ground.
Seeing the bodies rapidly decaying, their faces instantly turned pale, and their bodies began to tremble.
The man in the Middle Stage of the Innate Realm looked at Ye Chenfeng again and urgently said, “You must have a way to save us, right?
You do have a way, don’t you?”
Ye Chenfeng, with his superior medical skills, might have been able to save these people, but why would he?
He simply shook his head and said coldly, “I can’t help.”
Right after Ye Chenfeng’s words fell, the few remaining experts at the Innate level felt the effects of the deadly poison inside of them.
Before dying, none of them could even utter a syllable, falling one after another to the ground.
The corridor fell silent once again for about three to four minutes.
During this time, the members of the three major sects gauged Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining’s strength.
Since Ye Chenfeng had concealed his aura, they only sensed that his aura was equal to that of an Early Stage Sky-Breaking expert, while Xia Zining, who had not concealed her aura, matched a Middle Stage Sky-Breaking expert.
Li Dongtian, the Sect Leader of the Cloud Soaring Palace, looked at Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining and asked, “Do you two understand the layout of mechanisms?
Why didn’t you warn us earlier?”
Ye Chenfeng deliberately put on a haughty expression and said, “Why should I warn you?
Besides, would you even believe me?
I do indeed understand various mechanism layouts, and the mechanisms in the Ghost King Sect’s ruins can’t trouble me at all.”
Seeing a mere youngster, matching only an Early Stage Sky-Breaking expert, utter such arrogant words made Li Dongtian frown and say coldly, “From now on, the two of you will scout ahead.
Since you’re so confident, if we encounter any danger again, I won’t mind sending you both to meet the King of Hell immediately.”
“Why should we scout ahead?
We have no obligation to help you,” Ye Chenfeng retorted, about to walk forward alone with Xia Zining.
However, they were directly stopped by Mo Wusha, the Sect Leader of the Earth Demon Hall.
Mo Wusha revealed a dark smile and said in a hoarse voice, “From now on, you two will obediently scout ahead for us.”
Wang Zhongtian, the Sect Master of the Yun Tian Sect, also immediately said, “Do you two know whom you’re speaking to?
In the Ancient Martial World, defying us means only death awaits you.”
Li Zihao, the young master of the Cloud Soaring Palace, had been badly embarrassed by the earlier rain of arrows.
If it weren’t for Ye Chenfeng and Xia Zining still being useful, he would have killed them already.
He first glanced at Xia Zining, noticing her voluptuous figure, feeling a sense of familiarity with her aura.
Yet, seeing her rustic face, he thought he was overthinking.
Then, Li Zihao shifted his gaze to Ye Chenfeng and disdainfully said, “With just the strength of Early Stage Sky-Breaking, I could crush you more easily than squashing an ant.
You two have no choice now.
In our eyes, you are lambs and we are the tigers.
Can mere lambs escape from the claws of a tiger?”
Watching the indomitable Li Zihao, Ye Chenfeng gently squeezed Xia Zining’s palm, signaling her to maintain her composure and not let those present detect any suspicion from them.
Currently, everything was proceeding according to Ye Chenfeng’s pre-planned direction, his mind crossed by a cold smirk.
Who is the lamb?
Who is the tiger?
