C660 These Guys Are too Smart
Immediately after, she turned and pulled Xiang Shaoyun away from Su Yun.
Ugly Gambler wanted to keep Xiang Shaoyun here, but he couldn't care so much now.
Thus, he and the laughing monk released their will to clarify the situation of the Toxic Barrier.
This did not seem to have anything to do with Xiang Shaoyun anymore.
He looked at Yao Jiaojiao and asked softly, "Sister Jiao Jiao, can I go back to the Academy now?"
"Hehe, don't be so anxious. Could it be that you're afraid that sister will eat you?" Yao Jiaojiao laughed, touched Xiang Shaoyun's face and said, "Don't worry, big sister likes you so much, so I'm not willing to hurt you!"
Xiang Shaoyun revealed a bashful look as he said, "Elder sister, you are so nice to me!"
"En, it's good that you know this. Just listen to big sister's words. I definitely won't treat you unfairly!" Yao Jiaojiao glared at Xiang Shaoyun and asked, then she continued, "Tell me honestly with your sister, how did you find this place?"
"Didn't I just say it?" Xiang Shaoyun replied.
"You think you can fool me? "Although you've already used the power of your profound mysteries well, you still need to find out if you're capable of doing so!" Yao Jiaojiao revealed a shrewd look.
Xiang Shaoyun stared blankly for a moment before saying, "If I had heard it from those people just now, would you have believed me?"
"What do you think?" Yao Jiaojiao blinked her big eyes and said with innocence.
Xiang Shaoyun pondered for a moment, then revealed a sorrowful look and said, "Sister Jiao Jiao, you don't know, those people just now were my enemies, I will never let them off …"
Xiang Shaoyun revealed his own background, and added fuel to the fire to make it sound so sad.
He said that his purpose behind all this was to make Yao Jiaojiao believe that the person who had been paying attention to the Ziling Sect all this time wanted to find a chance to take revenge. However, he never thought that the people from the Ziling Sect would actually find such a place, and he had a fragment of the map, so he discovered that this was the place the Ugly Gambler had instructed him to look for.
It made sense to him.
Yao Jiaojiao stared into Xiang Shaoyun's eyes the whole time, listening to every single word of his. Then, she revealed a look of sympathy. "Don't worry, big sister will definitely avenge you!"
On the surface, she seemed to believe Xiang Shaoyun's words, but she had only heard less than half of it.
The only thing that was certain was that this place was real.
In the distance, Ren Zhijiu and the rest were hiding.
They could not be willing to leave the Dragon-Phoenix Mountain Range to give up their goal for coming here.
"Elder Dong, what do you think about Elder Xia's matter?" Ren Zhijiu asked Dong Bing and Xia Mu.
These two had the oldest qualifications and received the sect master's trust. Ren Zhijiu still had to respect them.
"This is Dragon-Phoenix Academy's territory, the moment there is any movement, we will be discovered by the people from the Dragon-Phoenix Academy. We must have a plan that is absolutely correct!" Dong Bing said.
Ren Zhijiu scolded in his heart, "Saying it would be equivalent to not saying it at all!"
Xia Huo said, "There is nothing we can do when we return now, we must wait for the sect leader to send his experts, then we can quickly find that place," he paused for a moment, before continuing, "But if that is the case, I am afraid that the sect master will think us useless!"
Xia Huo's last sentence, undoubtedly, made Ren Zhijiu feel uncomfortable.
Before arriving at the Dragon-Phoenix Mountain Range, Ren Zhijiu had wanted to give a good performance so that he could obtain Di Batian's trust.
Right now, there was only one person from Dragon-Phoenix Academy who was able to scare them away.
If that place was really discovered, he wouldn't be able to face Di Batian in the future!
"Old Xia is right. Moreover, I feel that the Dragon-Phoenix Academy elder just now despised her. If she was really the Dragon-Phoenix Academy elder, would she let us leave so easily?" Dong Bing raised a question.
"Elder Dong, are you saying that we were intimidated?" Ren Zhijiu said as his expression darkened.
"I just have this feeling!" Dong Bing said as he spread out his hands.
Ren Zhijiu thought for a moment, then called out to the others, "Let's go back and take a look, that place can't be taken by others!"
Very quickly, they returned to the direction of the Toxic Barrier.
Not long after, Yao Jiaojiao immediately sensed the situation.
She quickly transmitted her voice to Ugly Gambler and the laughing monk, wanting to summon them out.
The two of them were digging a hole in the ground, so how could they hope to dig out the location of the shrine by such a method?
However, they discovered that the ground was also permeated with a large amount of phosphorous poison. Moreover, there were also phosphorous bugs present. It was really too difficult for them to move forward while digging around with their hands and feet tied.
Now, after hearing Yao Jiaojiao's sound transmission, she immediately rushed out.
"I'm afraid that the person from before has returned. Should we leave or not?" Yao Jiaojiao asked the two of them.
"Now that we've already dug up the loot, where are we going to go? Let's just kill them all!" Ugly Gambler revealed a ruthless look.
"No, I think we can retreat now. Let them dig this up first, then we can reap the benefits of being fishermen!" The laughing monk revealed a sneer.
"Monk is right, let's go!" Yao Jiaojiao agreed and immediately left with Xiang Shaoyun.
The laughing monk followed closely behind, the Ugly Gambler had no choice but to follow too.
Xiang Shaoyun sighed in his heart, "These guys are too smart!"
In truth, Dong Bing's words were his own instructions. His intention was for Ren Zhijiu and the rest to return and fight Three Great Villains.
This way, he would have a chance to escape.
But now, this Three Great Villains had left again, causing his plan to fail.
When Ren Zhijiu and the rest returned, they discovered that the place had been dug out, and immediately knew that it would not be hidden for long.
They stayed where they were and tried to think of a way to deal with the situation.
"Assemble the fire array formation, we're going to directly dig this place up!" In the end, Xia Huo made this decision.
Dong Bing immediately expressed his support, and Ren Zhijiu had no other choice but to agree.
Xia Huo was an expert in fire, adding the other few cultivation fire, he took out quite a few rare fire materials, and was prepared to fight against fire and poison, and destroy this Toxic Barrier.
This was a tragedy for them.
Their firepower had some effect, reducing the number of Toxic Barrier s, but it had pierced the hornet's nest. A large number of Scaled Insects emerged, and a few weaker martial artists couldn't escape in time, and were directly bitten and killed by the Scaled Insects.
The people from the other Soul Altar Stage had wanted to get rid of these Scaled Insects, but there were simply too many of them, and the poison was too strong. Two strong practitioners of the Soul Altar Stage had been poisoned to death on the spot.
This time, the others were scared out of their wits, fleeing as far as they could.
And because of such a matter, the Scaled Worm completely broke out, gradually spreading the news.
