Chapter 1380

Xie Li’s gaze was cold, and he turned around the two leading women, revealing a sneer.

However, more martial artists showed malicious intentions. Some lecherous ones even looked at the two women lecherously, their eyes lingering on their beautiful figures, as if they were already in their pockets, just waiting for the formation to be broken so that they could go forward and plunder and abuse them wantonly.

The two women had indifferent expressions and showed no sign of panic.

Xie Li recognized the identities of these two women at a glance. In order to deal with Dragon Cave Mountain, of course, he had to find out the details here. One of the two women was called Wu Yi, a disciple of the local Heike Family. Later, she broke away from the family and joined Dragon Cave Mountain. The other one was called Qian Yue and seemed to have been brought back by Yang Kai from somewhere.

Their cultivation levels were not worth mentioning. One was at the Second-Order Saint King Realm, and the other was at the First-Order Saint King Realm. They simply did not catch Xie Li’s eye.

And the three old men standing behind them, two of them were surely Chang Qi and Hao An. These two were originally the offerings of the Heike Family. They had also been to the Flowing Flame Sand Field. I don’t know what kind of opportunity they got, but they actually both broke through to the Void Returning Realm and later joined the Dragon Cave Mountain.

As for the last one, Xie Li looked over suspiciously. After seeing the other person’s face clearly, he said in surprise, “Brother Ning, why are you here？”

The old man with white hair and beard was actually Ning Xiangchen who had been to the Emperor’s Garden with Yang Kai.

To be honest, he was extremely helpless. After returning from the Emperor’s Garden last time, after getting Yang Kai’s promise, he had been collecting materials for refining weapons, preparing to come to the Dragon Cave Mountain to borrow Yang Kai’s Firebird Weapon Spirit to repair his Void-Grade Secret Treasure.

Finally, he managed to gather a lot of materials and rushed here in a hurry. But who would have known that Yang Kai was actually out and not back yet.

In desperation, he could only stay in the mountain temporarily and wait.

Before his buttocks had even warmed up here, the Xie Family outside had already started attacking the Dragon Cave Mountain.

Ning Xiangchen was suddenly in an awkward situation. It was inappropriate to stay any longer. Once the mountain-protecting great formation of Dragon Cave Mountain was broken, he would surely be affected. It was equally impossible to leave directly. That would seem too heartless and ungrateful. At that time, don’t expect to be able to ask Yang Kai to borrow the Firebird Weapon Spirit to repair his own secret treasure.

Ning Xiangchen was in a dilemma, neither able to advance nor retreat.

He didn’t have a sect or a family. He had completely relied on himself to cultivate to his current realm. Every step was full of hardships, and he had escaped from death countless times. The path of cultivation was full of thorns.

Previously, when Master Ge Lin of Shadow Moon Palace was still alive. Whenever there was damage to the secret treasure, he would go to Master Ge Lin to repair it. The master was approachable and easy to talk to. Over the years, Ning Xiangchen had received a lot of care from the master. But apart from Master Ge Lin, he no longer knew any other Void Grade refiner. If not for this, why would he ask Yang Kai for help?

Ning Xiangchen nervously stayed in Dragon Cave Mountain for two days. Outside, many martial artists also bombarded and attacked for two days. But after these two days, he discovered a very strange thing.

That was that these martial artists inside Dragon Cave Mountain, even in the face of a tight siege. There was not the slightest bit of panic. They still performed their respective duties. Those who should be busy were busy, and those who should cultivate were cultivating. It was as if the noises and enemies outside did not exist at all.

If one or two martial artists behaved like this, it could be explained as having good mental stability, but if everyone did, it would be a bit strange.

Especially the leading girls, Wu Yi and Qian Yue. These two girls have been calmer than anyone else in the past few days, and they still drink tea and laugh from time to time. Don’t they know how to write the word ‘death’？

While being shocked, Ning Xiangchen was also extremely impressed. Compared with his own mood of being worried about gains and losses, the performance of these younger generations was simply too good.

And the mountain protection formation of this small hill in Longxue Mountain, after being attacked by more than thirty Void Returning Realms and more than two hundred Saint King Realms for two consecutive days, was actually still as solid as a rock. This was the place that made Ning Xiangchen look at it with new eyes.

This small hill is not simple！

Just this mountain protection formation is not something that ordinary people can arrange.

When he thought about Yang Kai’s various performances in the Emperor’s Garden again, Ning Xiangchen gritted his teeth and decided to take a risk! That was to stay and fight side by side with Longxue Mountain. All kinds of signs indicated that this small hill was not a soft persimmon that could be easily kneaded, and there was very likely some powerful backhand hidden. Maybe it could turn the situation around.

Of course, the reason why Ning Xiangchen made this choice was not because of a chivalrous heart, but a well-thought-out gamble.

He is betting that Longxue Mountain can get through the current difficulties. Once this disaster is overcome, then he can justifiably borrow the Firebird Weapon Spirit from Yang Kai. Otherwise, owing someone a favor, Ning Xiangchen always feels a bit uneasy in his heart.

At this moment, following Wu Yi and Qianyue to go out to meet the enemy is also something that Ning Xiangchen took the initiative to ask for, and no one called him.

Hearing Xie Li’s question, Ning Xiangchen chuckled： “Brother Xie, long time no see. I heard that Brother Xie has left the Shadow Moon Palace？”

“Brother Ning, why bother asking?” Xie Li snorted coldly. The other party is just a martial artist without a sect or faction, so even though he is a Void Returning Stage, Xie Li didn’t put him in his eyes. It’s just that the two of them knew each other before, so they would say a few words. “Brother Ning is here just in time. Xie has a proposal. I wonder if Brother Ning can consider it.”

“Oh？ I don’t know what proposal Brother Xie has？” Ning Xiangchen frowned.

Xie Li’s gaze swept over Qianyue and Wu Yi, and then he transmitted his divine sense and said： “Brother Ning, you can also see the current situation. Facing so many friends joining hands, this small mountain is just like a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Once the great formation is broken, Longxue Mountain will be like fish on a chopping board. I don’t know what benefits Longxue Mountain has given you, but I am willing to pay double the price. As long as you can capture these two women and hand them over to me for disposal, with Brother Ning’s means, it shouldn’t be difficult to do this by surprise, right？”

Ning Xiangchen’s white eyebrows raised, showing a hint of a half-smile expression, and said loudly： “Brother Xie, although I have no sect and no faction, just a loose warrior, I also know what is integrity and what is loyalty. Sneaking up on two juniors behind their backs, this is not appropriate. If I really do such a disgraceful thing, I’m afraid that in the future, no matter how big the world is, there will be no place for me to live.”

Hearing Ning Xiangchen’s words, Xie Li’s face sank. The other party didn’t transmit the sound to him quietly, but said his proposal in public, which obviously didn’t give him face, and this made him very angry.

Ning Xiangchen continued leisurely, “Moreover, Brother Xie doesn’t need to exaggerate. Although there are many people here to cause trouble, I’m afraid isn’t it easy to break through this great formation in a day or two. Well it’s also my own intention to get involved in this matter, and no one has given me any benefits. So I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint Brother Xie.”

Originally, seeing Xie Li whispering to Ning Xiangchen, Wu Yi and Qian Yue’s expressions were a little nervous, fearing that the other party would be lured by Xie Li’s means. After all, they were not familiar with Ning Xiangchen. At this time, hearing what he said, their expressions couldn’t help but relax, showing gratitude.

And Chang Qi even laughed heartily and patted Ning Xiangchen’s shoulder, saying, “Brother Ning, you will be glad you made this choice.”

Hao An also had a smiling face, and immediately felt that the old guy Ning Xiangchen was much more.

I hope so… Ning Xiangchen remained expressionless on the surface, but in fact, his heart was also beating drums. He made such a choice, to some extent, because he couldn’t stand the actions of Xie Li and these people bullying the weak. Now that he has torn his face with Xie Li, if Longxue Mountain really falls, he won’t have a good time either.

Wu Yi pursed her lips and smiled, her smile was quiet, but it also seemed a little unpredictable. She gently opened her red lips and said, “Senior Xie, and all the other seniors, my Longxue Mountain has no grudges or enmities with you. Why do you have to push so hard？”

“No grudges?” Hearing this, Xie Li sneered and said, “If there were really no grudges, do you think we are full and have nothing to do to attack a small mountain? I won’t bother to argue with you juniors too much. Little girl, if you are sensible, quickly remove this mountain-protecting formation and you can avoid some flesh and blood pain. Otherwise…”

“How about it？” Wu Yi slightly raised her pretty head, her beautiful eyes glaring at Xie Li, without the slightest bit of timidity.

Xie Li snorted twice: “When the formation is broken, you will definitely be skinned and cramp!

“Senior has such a big tone, aren’t you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue！” Wu Yi still smiled sweetly, but her words were extremely sarcastic. Her beautiful eyes flickered, and she glanced at the many enemies staring at her with fierce eyes, and then shouted in a charming voice： “Since this is the case, then the younger generation also advises all the seniors. If you leave now, our Dragon Cave Mountain can let bygones be bygones. This matter will be regarded as never happening. But if you are stubborn and don’t know how to repent, don’t blame our Dragon Cave Mountain for being cruel and ruthless！”

As soon as these words came out, it was earth-shattering.

Many of the Return to Void Realm cultivators who came to help looked at Wu Yi like idiots, and their inner anger rose suddenly.

Originally, they had been attacking vigorously for two days and still couldn’t break through the defense of Dragon Cave Mountain, which already made them feel depressed. Now, after hearing Wu Yi’s boastful words, their anger flared up one by one.

The martial artists who came here to attack Dragon Cave Mountain all had ulterior motives or had grudges against Yang Kai. How could they be scared away by a few arrogant words from Wu Yi？ Instead, it even stimulated their determination.

Immediately, there were those with hot tempers who drove their secret treasures or released their martial skills and attacked the direction where Wu Yi was located.

Rumble…

A loud noise came out, and the light curtain of the mountain-protecting great array in front of Wu Yi flickered violently, blocking all those attacks.

Wu Yi’s face turned cold, and looking at those martial artists who had attacked her, she said coldly, “Since you are so stubborn, let’s wait and see. I hope you won’t regret today’s decision！”

As she said this, she waved her hand, and a thick layer of clouds and mist came from all directions, enveloping the figures of Wu Yi and the others and directly disappearing from the sight of the numerous enemies.

“This arrogant little bitch, when this old man catches her, he will definitely make her know what it means to be worse than death！” An old man in the Return to Void Mirror realm who was sitting cross-legged on a huge toad-like monster beast looked at the direction where Wu Yi had disappeared with a fierce gaze and gritted his teeth and said.

This old man was extremely ugly, with triangular eyes, a bald head, a pockmarked face and a short and stocky build, which complemented the toad-like demonic beast beneath him.
