Chapter 92: Set within set
"Thirty-two..." Lu Qingshan ignored Yindu, but looked around and counted the specific number of people.
A generous move indeed.
With Lu Qingshan's current combat power, he is almost certain to win when facing an ordinary Void Refining cultivator alone. The same goes for two, but once there are more than three, it becomes difficult, but there is still no problem if you want to escape.
.
Thirty-two Void Refining monks?
No Nascent Soul cultivator can escape safely from such a situation, let alone the top one on the yellow list, even the strongest four realms cannot.
In the world of cultivation, the human sea tactic is useless when there is a huge difference in strength, just like even if there are a thousand ants, they will never be able to kill one person.
However, if the difference in strength is not so great, the human sea tactic can actually have the effect of one plus one being greater than two.
A lion, the "biggest brother in Africa", can win a single battle with a hyena, but if the hyena chooses to swarm it, once the total number exceeds six, there is a chance to kill a lion.
Not to mention, there are still thirty-two "hyenas" today.
But facing this situation, Lu Qingshan's expression remained unchanged, and he even nodded with satisfaction, grinning at Yindu, showing his white teeth.
Dressed as a middle-aged monk, he smiled, even a little kindly and gentle, but this smile immediately made Yindu feel a chill rising up his spine.
A bad premonition came to mind because Lu Qingshan was too calm.
Facts have proved that, unless it is a European emperor, things like premonitions generally follow the principle of "good things don't work, bad things do".
Above the sky, dozens of light points suddenly appeared at this moment, rushing towards them.
The unrelated monks in the town hadn't even recovered from the sudden outburst of more than thirty Void Refining monks, but Yindu had already felt a huge danger.
That was the sword gleam. Countless sword gleams, like tiny flying swords, formed a torrent of steel. The rain of swords poured down and accurately covered the thirty-two underworld monks.
Caught off guard, the underworld monks hurriedly tried to organize an effective defense, but the tiny sword light contained irresistible power and ruthlessly scattered their defense methods.
Ding ding ding!
After defeating their defenses, the sword light penetrated through their limbs, overturned their bodies, and then condensed without dispersing, like nails, nailing everyone to the ground.
The menacing underworld monks looked weak in front of these sword lights, and were not at the same level at all.
They thought they were strong in numbers, but they were shattered by the sword light that filled the sky.
The battle has ended before it even begins.
In Yindu, the leading monk in the encirclement and suppression of Lu Qingshan this time, his body was firmly nailed to the ground, and his blood flowed out.
The sword light that penetrated his body completely imprisoned the flow of his spiritual power, making him unable to even seek death and unable to even open his mouth to speak.
He could only stare at Lu Qingshan with his eyes wide open, his eyes full of anger and confusion.
"Take the bait, will you?" Lu Qingshan took two steps forward and walked to Yindu's side. At the same time, he removed the disguise of the Night Travel Jade and returned to its true appearance.
The handsome young man carefully corrected the underworld monk's mistake, "No, this is called... piranha."
A ray of light appeared and finally landed next to Lu Qingshan.
He was an old man with gray beard and hair, but the fierceness about him was enough to make everyone feel afraid.
"Excuse me, uncle, please take action." Lu Qingshan said politely.
"It's just as you expected, someone set up a trap to kill you," Xixiang, who had just appeared, said thoughtfully, "This is an incredible feat."
Nailed to the ground, after hearing the conversation between the two, his pupils suddenly expanded and he stared at Lu Qingshan.
It turned out that it was not that the news was exposed, or that the meeting coincided, but... that Lu Qingshan guessed his plan?
But why? How did he guess it? Where was the flaw?
"You want to know how I guessed that Jinjing Yulan was a killing trap set up against me?" Lu Qingshan understood the meaning in Yindu's eyes.
Yindu's eyes flashed, waiting for Lu Qingshan to reveal the answer.
He wanted to know everything.
"It's a pity..." After a pause, Lu Qingshan shook his head regretfully, "I'm not going to tell you."
Yindu let out a helpless roar.
........
The killing plot that the underworld thought was perfectly arranged was actually full of flaws in Lu Qingshan's eyes.
He wanted to enhance the true meaning of cause and effect, so Jinjing Yulan, which is rarely seen in ordinary times, happened to appear at this juncture, and it happened to breed the mystery of cause and effect.
Is he a child of luck or the protagonist in a romance novel? Why does someone give him a pillow when he falls asleep? Is there such a cheap thing in the world?
As the old saying goes, one coincidence may be a coincidence, but once there are more than two, there is a high probability that it is a carefully arranged "coincidence" and someone deliberately played a trick.
As for who wants to target him?
Lu Qingshan just learned an important news in the wild land.
He ranks first in the underworld's kill list.
For a monk of this rank, the underworld will definitely have various plans against him secretly, so he has always been on guard.
When you are prepared, it is often easier to find flaws in some things.
After contacting this news again, Lu Qingshan roughly judged the plan behind this matter.
As for the so-called incident that someone really got the ginseng from Jinjing Yulan and sold it for a big price, that is even more ridiculous.
Isn't this the simple routine of those unscrupulous merchants in previous lives?
Lu Qingshan has long been used to strange things. It may be okay to deceive others who dream of "getting rich", but it is naturally impossible to deceive Lu Qingshan.
It was precisely because he knew that he was in the first rank and that the underworld had no doubt about his murderous intention, that Lu Qingshan did not dare to be arrogant and take chances, and reported the matter directly to Xixiang.
The excitement of the competition in the dojo has not subsided, and Xixiang has the best impression of this talented disciple of his. He is very precious to him.
So as soon as he heard that the underworld was very likely to trap Lu Qingshan, Xi Xiang couldn't hold himself back. His sword was still young, so he personally went out to play a trick on Lu Qingshan.
As for what if all these speculations come to nothing?
Xi Xiangtang, the seventh-level sword cultivator, must not be allowed to go in vain, so Lu Qingshan made up his mind that if the Jinjing Yulan incident was true, he would ask his uncle to help him search Changbai Mountain...
Isn't it a sure thing to let the Seventh Realm monks go out in person to find the Jinjing Yulan hidden in Changbai Mountain?
........
The battle was over. With a thought in Xixiang's mind, the sword light on the thirty-two underworld monks in the Void Refining Realm swayed, picking up their bodies and stringing them together.
"Return to the sect." Xixiang said coldly. The underworld monks usually hide in the dark, but they finally caught so many this time. Naturally, they won't just kill them all at once. They want to bring them back to the sect for good treatment.
Do some interrogation.
In fact, this is one of the reasons why Xixiang will personally take action. The Six Realm monks can indeed kill all these underworld monks, but it is impossible to capture them alive.
After all, compared to the various tortures and interrogations he would face after being captured alive, the monks from the underworld would rather choose to commit suicide.
Lu Qingshan nodded, followed Xi Xiang to rise with his sword, and quickly disappeared into the town.
...........
All these changes happened so quickly that most of the other monks in the town did not understand the specific situation and were all confused.
Only Ma Yun, who was at the center of the battle, watched everything.
Seeing Lu Qingshan and Xixiang leaving, he came back from his daze.
Shopkeeper Ma, who heard everyone's conversation clearly, naturally understood all the situations.
So exciting!
Dozens of Void Refining monks were dispatched to intercept and kill Lu Qingshan, who was number one on the yellow list, and then he was instantly counterattacked by Lu Qingshan’s sect seniors!
This is Sword Sect!
He felt happy and envious at the same time.
Who wouldn’t be envious of being protected by such a powerful sect?
Unfortunately, his sect is not like this.
Ma Yun unconsciously felt a bit lonely in his heart, lamenting that the world is not worth it.
Wait, where did my sect come from?
Oh, I am a casual cultivator...
That's okay.
Chapter completed!
