After this group of people died, the Black Kite immediately left.
This time, it didn’t attack the formation by Lin Jing and the others, presumably knowing that with its ability, it couldn’t break through this formation.
So, it didn’t waste its energy.
“That Red-Robed Cultivator looked so respectable, but I didn’t expect him to be so shameless.”
After the Black Kite left, Yan Xiong was the first to speak.
“Indeed.”
“So, at this time, we can’t trust anyone.”
However, the one most affected by this was Luo Luo, who had witnessed everything with her own eyes.
Luo Luo looked up at Ning Yue and asked, “Mother, why is that man so bad, abandoning his companions and running away without caring?” Obviously, Luo Luo, at her age, couldn’t understand this at all.
Ning Yue stroked Luo Luo’s head and said:
“Luo Luo, remember, you must not harbor the intention to harm others, but you cannot do without the caution to defend against them.”
“Oh…”
Luo Luo’s eyes still held a hint of confusion, clearly, it was still too early for her to understand this phrase.
Following that, the surroundings quieted down once again.
Looking at Wei Zhengqing, he was still recovering.
The crisis had passed, and nobody disturbed him.
However.
The silence didn’t last long before it was broken.
About fifteen minutes later, a red figure came flying on a sword.
It was none other than the Red-Robed Cultivator who had just fled.
The Red -Robed Cultivator arrived in front of the formation, retracted his Flying Sword, and descended from the air.
“Bad person…”
Upon seeing this man, Luo Luo pointed at the Red-Robed Cultivator and said.
The Red -Robed Cultivator chuckled dismissively:
“Hehe…”
“Aren’t you bad people as well?”
“If you had let us in, would there be so many troubles now?”
“Little girl, you should get your facts straight before you speak.”
The words of the man in black left Luo Luo speechless, uncertain of how to retort.
“If I had let you in, I’m afraid our fate would not have been much better than theirs by now,” Lin Jing said cooly, pointing at the corpses on the ground.
“They came all this way with you, and you sold them out; do you still expect to proclaim your integrity?
The Red -Robed Cultivator, after hearing Lin Jing’s words, did not refute.
“I too wanted to stay alive…”
‘Without their help in blocking the Black Kite, I probably wouldn’t have survived. I’m very grateful to them for the sacrifices they made for me.”
Having said this, he began rummaging through the corpses, searching for their Storage Bags and even seizing their Magic Artifacts.
Soon, the corpses in the distance had been completely looted by him.
Only a few near the edge of the formation remained.
After collecting from other corpses, the Red -Robed Cultivator came to the corpse of the man in black, closed his eyes with his hand and said:
“Don’t blame big brother, big brother also wanted to stay alive.”
After speaking, he put the man in black’s Storage Bag and Magic Artifact into his own Storage Bag.
Having done all this, the Red-Robed Cultivator looked up at the people inside the formation and said:
“Do you really think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re hiding in this formation?”
“Heh heh, let’s see how long you can hide now.”
After speaking, he took out a porcelain bottle and shook it a couple of times at them.
“Have you heard of Beast Attracting Grass? Just by pouring this bottle of Beast Attracting Grass liquid here, demonic beasts will surround this place in less than fifteen minutes.”
“Then, let’s see how long you can hold out.”
Lin Jing stared at the porcelain bottle, frowning,
He had certainly heard of Beast Attracting Grass.
It was used specifically to attract demonic beasts, and just a few drops of the liquid could send demonic beasts into a frenzy. If he really poured out the liquid here,
Then as he said, all nearby demonic beasts would converge on this spot.
At that time, with so many demonic beasts attacking, even if he had plenty of Spirit Stones on him, he probably wouldn’t last long.
“Of course…”
The Red -Robed Cultivator changed tack and continued:
“If you open the formation and let me in, I won’t use this Beast Attracting Grass juice.”
“And once I’m inside, you needn’t worry about me causing trouble.”
“After all, I’m just trying to survive. You can rest assured that once inside the formation, I will be absolutely behaved.”
Having said that, the Red-Robed Cultivator held the porcelain bottle and looked at Lin Jing, waiting for his response.
Lin Jing did not panic; he calmly looked at the Red-Robed Cultivator and said:
“I guess you wouldn’t dare.”
Do you really have no fear of death?” The Red-Robed Cultivator’s face was a mask of anger, “Then don’t blame me for not being polite.”
After speaking, he had a Teleportation Talisman in his hand, and then he prepared to open the bottle.
At this moment, a voice sounded:
“I also guess you wouldn’t dare.”
“Using the Beast Attracting Grass to draw Demonic Beasts here, I’m afraid you would be the first to die. Do you really think that with a Teleportation Talisman, you could escape the pursuit of the Black Kite?”
The Red -Robed Cultivator was taken aback, and the hand poised to open the bottle stopped where it was.
Now, he was somewhat hesitant.
Actually, he was not certain that using the Teleportation Talisman would get him out of the Black Kite’s sensory range.
When Lin Jing heard this voice, joy appeared on his face, and he turned to look.
Wei Zhengqing was walking towards Lin Jing’s side.
At this point, Wei Zhengqing showed no signs of the weakness he had at the beginning. He appeared calm and composed, with an air of strength in his every move.
“Brother Wei, you’re… all better?” Lin Jing asked with a look of joy.
“Mhm…’
Wei Zhengqing nodded, then came to stand beside Lin Jing, patting his shoulder and said:
“I really owe you one. Leave him to me now.”
“Foundation Establishment Stage…”
The Red -Robed Cultivator frowned. The reason he had been so arrogant was that Lin Jing and the other two were in the Qi Refinement Realm, and they couldn’t pose a threat to him.
He had seen Wei Zhengqing before, but since he observed that Wei Zhengqing’s energy was unstable, likely from being injured and meditating, he didn’t pay much attention.
However, he couldn’t understand why that man had recovered so quickly.
How much time passed? And he was already out of harm’s way.
The Red -Robed Cultivator furrowed his brow in thought, but couldn’t solve the puzzle.
In his wildest dreams, he probably couldn’t imagine that Wei Zhengqing had taken a Pure Body Restoration Pill.
Wei Zhengqing looked at the Red-Robed Cultivator and said to Lin Jing:
“With him around, there could be trouble we don’t need.”
“Brother Lin, open the formation. I will take care of him.”
“Brother Wei, are you sure?” Lin Jing looked at Wei Zhengqing, doubtful.
He understood Wei Zhengqing’s character, and he wouldn’t say such a thing if he wasn’t sure.
However, Lin Jing still couldn’t quite believe it and quickly reminded him:
“His cultivation seems to be a bit higher than yours, and moreover, he has a Magic Artifact that is extremely formidable. He might not be easy to handle.” “I know,” Wei Zhengqing nodded.
“Although I was healing just now, fearing an accident, I was paying close attention to the outside. I’m still very clear about everything that has happened.”
“This man’s cultivation is slightly higher than mine, at the second layer of Foundation Establishment, but he is definitely not my opponent.” “Brother Lin, don’t worry. That guy is certainly no match for old Wei.”
“Plus, old Wei’s Magic Artifact is no worse than his.”
Yan Xiong said with a grin.
Lin Junjie looked at Wei Zhengqing, whose eyes were resolute, nodding at Lin Jing to assure him.
“Alright,” Lin Jing replied.
“Courting death…”
Seeing that Wei Zhengqing did not take him seriously, the Red-Robed Cultivator said furiously.
But, he also felt a sneaky joy inside. He hadn’t expected that the formation that he couldn’t open no matter what would be willingly exited by others.
He was very confident in his Flawless Sword, believing that no matter who came out, he would be able to kill them.
Of course, it would be best to capture them and then force them to open the formation…
However, for now, he couldn’t let that show and had to continue feigning anger:
“Since that’s the case, I’ll fulfill your wish..”
