Chapter 564: A Scheme Within a Scheme, the Battle of the Talented Warrior from the Savage Wilderness Returns
“Brother Chen, what do you think of the array formation we set up?”
Looking at Xu Yao and the others preparing, Chen Changsheng nodded and said.
“It’s excellent. With our current strength and this array formation, even those at the peak of the Rebirth Realm can be dealt with.”
Hearing Chen Changsheng’s words, Xu Yao smiled slightly and said, “Relying solely on me and Sister Ling, we could indeed only handle those at the peak of the Rebirth Realm.”
“But Brother Chen might have forgotten to include yourself in the calculation.”
“After knowing each other for some time, I still can’t see through your strength. Could you perhaps reveal a little?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng laughed and took off a jade pendant from his waist, instantly revealing the aura of the Immortal Sovereign Realm.
“I apologize, I was being cautious when I left. This jade pendant is a specially made magical treasure that can shield my own aura and realm.”
“So that’s why I couldn’t see through your realm.”
“With Brother Chen, an expert of the Immortal Sovereign Realm, present, this situation should be absolutely secure.”
As he spoke, Xu Yao pointed to a direction and said, “Brother Chen, this is the life gate of the array formation, the most important part. You will need to take charge of it.”
“No problem!”
Chen Changsheng readily agreed, then led Jian Fei to one position of the array formation.
Seeing Xu Yao and the others hiding in the distance, Jian Fei whispered, “Sir, I have an uneasy feeling in my heart.”
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng smiled faintly and said, “It’s normal to feel uneasy because this array formation is set up for us.”
“For us?”
“Yes,” Chen Changsheng surveyed the surrounding array formation and said, “Apart from the newly set array formation, there is another ancient array formation here.”
“In terms of scale, its power should be enough to annihilate experts of the Yellow Immortal Realm.”
“Combined with their new array formation, the two formations complement each other. Even if experts of the Profound Realm come, they would still have a fighting chance.”
In response to Chen Changsheng’s answer, Jian Fei became anxious.
“Sir, could they possibly want to directly destroy us using the array formation?”
“Not yet. Without testing, they won’t make a move on us.”
“According to intelligence, a genius from the Savage Wilderness will pass by this route, reaching the peak of the Rebirth Realm, and may have even stepped into the Immortal Sovereign Realm.”
“This person is extremely important to the Savage Wilderness. If we show any signs of betrayal during the battle, they will immediately activate the array formation, killing both us and the Savage Wilderness prodigy.”
After hearing this, Jian Fei sighed in relief and said, “I’m no longer worried about that. Other things aside, Sir will definitely not be a spy from the Savage Wilderness.”
“Why are you so sure?”
“Because Horse Face is right beside Sir!”
“If even the Horse Face from the Netherworld has a problem, then the Eight Desolates Nine Domains would have probably already been breached by the Savage Wilderness.”
Looking at Jian Fei with a smile, Chen Changsheng also smiled and said, “Your reaction is quite good, but you’ll have to fend for yourself soon.”
“Sir, what do you mean?”
“We’ve been in the Savage Wilderness for quite some time since leaving the Sword Qi Great Wall. Haven’t you noticed that I’m not the true Immortal Sovereign?”
As he spoke, “Chen Changsheng” rolled up his sleeves.
On “Chen Changsheng’s” arm, there were visible seams from a puppet and some array formation patterns.
Facing this situation, Jian Fei panicked.
“Sir, don’t scare me. Even if you’re not the true Immortal Sovereign, a puppet of the Immortal Sovereign Realm is still very powerful.”
“I apologize, my puppet is just a paper tiger, impressive but useless.”
“Moreover, the energy of the puppet is almost depleted. Good luck to you!”
With that, “Chen Changsheng” slowly closed his eyes.
Jian Fei: “…”
You’re really going to play me to d*ath!
Looking at himself in the center of the array formation, Jian Fei’s heart started pounding frantically, as any slight misstep could cost him his life.
…
Time passed, and a streak of light raced towards them.
When it reached mid-air, an array formation suddenly erupted and struck it down.
“Boom!”
The streak of light crashed onto the ground.
“Whoosh!”
Xu Yao and Ma Ling’er appeared, blocking all escape routes.
Once the dust settled, a man with horns appeared in the middle of the encirclement.
“The eighth talented warrior of the Savage Wilderness, Dragon Return, reaches the peak of the Rebirth Realm.”
“Recently, I ran out of money. I’ll borrow your head for some wine!”
Xu Yao said casually, holding “Black Xuan” in her hand.
Looking at Xu Yao and Ma Ling’er, Dragon Return said indifferently, “The first sword immortal of the Nine Domains, Xu Yao, and the small god of wealth from the Heavenly Court, Ma Ling’er.”
“It’s my great fortune to meet you two. The Savage Wilderness has wanted to k*ll you two for days.”
“Today, you’ve come to us, so I’ll use your heads to earn military merit!”
“Whoosh!”
With a spear in hand, Dragon Return instantly attacked Ma Ling’er with a sweeping motion.
Among the two, the most troublesome one was Ma Ling’er, known as the “Little God of Wealth.”
As a descendant of the God of Wealth, she had endless treasures on her. If she kept providing magical treasures to Xu Yao, he would likely find himself in a prolonged battle.
“Boom!”
Xu Yao blocked the heavy strike.
Seeing Xu Yao’s feet digging deep grooves into the ground and bl**d trickling from her mouth, Dragon Return did not immediately attack but praised instead, “To survive a hit from the Lamp of Life Realm is truly remarkable, Sword Immortal.”
“Too bad you’re too arrogant. The gap in major realms cannot be bridged by just array formations and magical treasures.”
While Dragon Return spoke, Ma Ling’er quickly retreated and threw a dan to Xu Yao.
Swallowing the fragrant dan, Xu Yao’s injuries instantly healed.
“There’s no choice. Who would owe so much wine money?”
“If I don’t go all out, when will I ever pay off my debts?”
At this moment, Ma Ling’er had already activated the entire array formation, using its power to quickly advance towards Dragon Return.
Watching Xu Yao’s sword qi soaring, Dragon Return said calmly, “Very well, let’s see who prevails.”
…
Inside and outside the formation.
Chen Changsheng lay leisurely on a tree branch, flipping through a piece of information.
This information was precisely what Xu Yao and the others were supposed to obtain from the Sword Qi Great Wall.
“Interesting. No wonder the fool Ma Hu couldn’t discover you. Such tactics are indeed remarkable.”
As he spoke, Chen Changsheng put down the information and looked into the distance.
“Compelling Xu Yao to go to the Savage Wilderness, then setting up a trap to k*ll them. All these means appear to be done in secret.”
“If I hadn’t discovered it, they might have actually thought it was an accident.”
“Unfortunately, you were too hasty. Otherwise, this plan would have been perfect.”
With that, the corners of Chen Changsheng’s mouth curled up.
Xu Yao and the others were fishing, the Sword Qi Great Wall’s spy was fishing, and Chen Changsheng was also fishing.
As for who would succeed, it depended on everyone’s abilities.
