For a time, only the howling cold wind was left among the peaks.
…
Li Yang, Bai Ye, Bernard and Dirang all took a deep breath, their backs already soaked with cold sweat.
Waiting for confirmation that "Senior Cheng" has indeed left.
They gradually came back to their senses.
Immediately, there was endless horror.
Did the other party say what he just said to himself and others?
If not, there is no one else in this direction.
But if you say...hiss...
Thinking of the hidden information behind this, everyone took a deep breath.
Is it possible that the ascended person who has left the earth long ago but continues to influence reality in some way is still alive...and can watch himself and others through projection?
This guess is really terrible.
Almost everyone present was unwilling to believe this possibility.
Even Li Yang, who might benefit from this, didn't want to believe it.
Although this strong man seems to be from the Xia Kingdom, for this kind of person, it seems that he has transcended the country and the nation, and looks at human beings... No, with this person's power, perhaps in his eyes, human beings are just countless creatures in the universe.
Just one of them!
It would be ridiculous to try to restrain an ascended immortal with feelings of family and country.
In contrast, the other party's existence is more of a threat.
Why would he cast an image on the earth?
If it could be understood as some objective factor before, but now, the other party's words seem to mean that he is still alive and aware of the existence of projection, then man-made influence cannot be ruled out. Perhaps... projection
He did it on purpose...
What is his purpose? What does he want to do? Is it the evil taste of immortals? Or is there some unknown purpose?
Just thinking about it is enough to scare them.
"This news must be spread as soon as possible! This information is so critical, and it is very likely to affect the direction of the world's spiritual practice in the future!"
Li Yang suddenly woke up and returned home like an arrow. He wished he could end the projection immediately and return to the earth.
However, thinking of the situation he was facing now, he resisted this impulse.
The image disappears.
Everyone fell into an eerie silence.
After recovering from the horror just now, they must face a real problem.
"Bernard...let's go..."
Dirang was the first to speak, lowering his voice.
He had just picked up the sword that was scattered on the ground and looked shocked.
The words of "Senior Cheng" were directly transmitted into their hearts, which was more direct than the translation. The meaning of the other party's words was also very simple. Dirang immediately backed down.
He originally didn't want to participate in this showdown between the Federation and the Xia Kingdom. After all, the risks were huge. The reason why he came was that the Federation had promised enough benefits, and he was also afraid of Lancelot.
But this kind of help is also limited. He was a little hesitant before when it was two to two. What's more, now that Senior Cheng has appeared as a saint and corroborated the "black robe"'s remarks, he is even more unwilling to continue.
"Let's go? We have agreed!" Bernard suddenly became angry after hearing this.
Dirang didn't dare to be strong when facing Bernard, but he didn't grovel. He just left two hands free and clasped his palms together in front of his chest, as if chanting Buddha and meditating: "I can return the relevant promises to you."
He would rather give back the benefits he received than continue.
On the one hand, this comes from fear, on the other hand, it is also rational calculation.
Obviously, if the fight continues, the black robe will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it. Two against two, plus Bai Ye, who is unsure of his position, has a low chance of winning, and is likely to pay a high price.
As for tearing up the contract and possibly causing Lancelot's anger, Dirang consciously could bear it. The key point was that "Senior Cheng" was still alive and could cast his gaze here, which was terrible.
Although such strong men will certainly not be bound by worldly national interests, after all, they are from the Xia Kingdom. Who dares to say that they have no emotional bias at all?
This is also something to consider.
Seeing his appearance, the anger in Bernard's heart also dispelled the fear:
"You think you can just withdraw now? You have already stood with me and launched an attack on Li Yang. Do you think you can still retreat now? When they get out, you will also be attacked by Xia Kingdom!"
Li Yang, who was standing not far away, heard this conversation, coughed slightly, and said seriously:
"We in the Xia Kingdom like to make friends. Dongyin belongs to Asia and is a partner we enjoy getting to know. I can represent the Xia Kingdom and let the past be forgotten for the misunderstanding in this projection."
"You..." Bernard's eyes widened and he almost spit out a curse word. He didn't expect that Li Yang, a thick-browed man with big eyes, could be so shameless and could say such words.
"Li Zhengshou, this is very good, this is very good." After hearing this, Dirang clasped his hands and recited an idiom in broken Chinese, like a monk who is not connected with cause and effect.
"You...you have to think clearly!" Bernard stared at Didang and threatened.
Didang took a step back: "The projection will appear later, and I will apologize to Lancelot."
Bernard almost lost his breath. He didn't expect his ally to be so cowardly! He could be easily frightened by an image!
Li Yang also breathed a sigh of relief now. Seeing that Di Rang was thinking of quitting, he couldn't help but start to have other thoughts. Thinking about it, he looked at Bai Ye.
The latter had just come back to his senses. When he saw Li Yang, the long-haired girl smiled brightly and said decisively:
"Congratulations on the resolution of the crisis in Guard Li. I won't bother you anymore. I can't make Senior Cheng unhappy. Hehe, I'll take my leave now and see you again if we have a chance."
With that said, Bai Ye began to call for the men of the mercenary group to gather and plan to leave.
She has been able to live happily until now, and she still has basic eyesight. Now that Li Yang's life is in danger, she is relieved. As for participating more deeply... As the same saying goes, her family is small and cannot compare to a big country, so she hastily
To get involved is to seek death.
"Well...see you again when we have a chance." Li Yang looked away with some disappointment, glanced at the "black robe" again, hesitated, and said nothing.
He was too afraid of the black robe.
Cheng Lin, who glanced at him, breathed a sigh of relief.
He could vaguely see that Li Yang was planning to launch a counterattack. If he was the real seventh grade, he might be able to give it a try. The problem was that he was fake.
Therefore, it is naturally impossible to go crazy and kill Bernard.
"Finally, this scene was not in vain. By rescuing you, I have fulfilled my duty as a citizen of the Xia Kingdom. I will accept it as soon as I can..."
Cheng Lin cursed.
Yes, this is his complete plan, pretending to be his own student to make everything go smoothly, then turning on the holographic image, controlling it, and using the message system to direct such a drama to scare these people away.
As for what "Senior Cheng" said, he had carefully weighed it.
First, it must be highlighted and powerful so as to demonstrate sufficient deterrence.
Secondly, he must consider the worst case scenario, that is, Bernard and Dirang were not frightened. Then, if "Senior Cheng" said something to death, such as "Quickly retreat, otherwise you will be killed together."
"Kill" and so on, and Bernard refuses to leave, that would be embarrassing.
After all, images can only be used to scare people, but they have no offensive power.
By then, not only Li Yang will be defeated, but the entire identity of "Senior Cheng" will also collapse.
Fortunately...
"Everything went well. The worst situation didn't happen. Didang said he was quitting. Bernard must be relieved, right?"
Breathing out a sigh of relief, Cheng Lin glanced at Li Yang and stopped talking. He just made a "please" gesture. Immediately, without waiting for Li Yang's reaction, he turned around and walked deeper into the mountains.
He has been delayed here for a long time. He has to go see Cao Wei quickly. Moreover, the movement here must have attracted the attention of Tongguan Barrier. He must make a circle as soon as possible and return to the battlefield, otherwise he will wait for everyone to finish the fighting and count the number of people.
, it was easy to find that he was missing.
"Humph! Li Yang...next time, you won't have such good luck!" Bernard held the scepter and gritted his teeth in a cold tone, as if he was extremely unwilling to do so.
Li Yang laughed, the flames of his body rose up, raised his chin, and sneered: "This is what I want to say to you! Farewell!"
After saying that, Li Yang turned around and left. Although he looked calm and composed on the surface, in fact, his injuries were almost unbearable.
However, just as the three of them gradually separated, Cheng Lin walked far away, preparing to find an opportunity to leave with his sword.
Bernard's lavender eyes suddenly flashed with cold light. He twisted the scepter in his hand, and the water elemental whale under the seat exploded, turning into countless water arrows and stabbing towards Li Yang!
This blow was so sudden and so fast that Li Yang never completely relaxed or reacted immediately. Instead, he took a moment to avoid it with the help of fire escape.
One arm was almost pierced by a water arrow!
"you……"
Li Yang snorted, his eyes full of disbelief. He didn't expect Bernard to be so crazy, pretending to give up, but secretly launched an attack!
Bernard sneered and jumped up. The explosion of the blue whale was not his ultimate move, but just to influence Li Yang. The real attack was already brewing successfully.
His eyes flashed with crazy murderous intent, like a violent sea. However, only by careful observation, you will find that deep in the eyes, in the storm, there is peace.
He is calm! He knows what he is doing!
Li Yang understood Bernard instantly!
And as an opponent, Li Yang figured out Bernard's plan almost instantly!
He is unwilling to give up this opportunity!
Bernard knew very well how rare such an opportunity was. If he gave up, it would be too difficult to ambush Li Yang. As long as Li Yang was killed, the Xia Kingdom's power would be greatly reduced, which would be of great benefit to the Federation.
And Li Yang was seriously injured. Even without Dirang, Bernard alone would have a great chance of successfully killing him in a surprise attack.
The only two things that need to be worried about are the "Black Robe", but the "Black Robe" has gone far now. Even if he turns back, he will not be able to stop Bernard in time.
Second, it is Senior Cheng, but now that the image has completely disappeared, there is a high probability that Senior Cheng has really left. Bernard is betting that the Ascended One has really left!
madman!
A real madman!
Li Yang cursed in his heart, knowing that he had underestimated Bernard's ruthlessness. In the past, he had always thought that the opponent only relied on the scepter to reach the third place, but now, Li Yang finally did not dare to show any mercy to this opponent.
underestimate.
"die!"
In an instant, Bernard had already launched the strongest attack at the seventh level. He raised his scepter high and transformed into an illusory giant, causing the spiritual energy of the mountains to riot, like a boiling violent sea.
A ray of blue light that looked like substance separated from the scepter and struck towards Li Yang!
At the moment of life and death, Li Yang's eyes were red. He suddenly stretched out his hand, pulled out a strange jade token from his chest, and crushed it decisively!
Click!
The jade tablet instantly turned into powder, but also released a ray of light, wrapping Li Yang and instantly moving sideways for a distance of nearly thirty meters!
This is actually a magic weapon that can break through the lock of Qi machine and move instantly!
It is also one of Li Yang’s few remaining trump cards!
"Whoosh..."
The blue light rubbed Li Yang's body, passed by Bernard's angry and crazy eyes, and fell towards a mountain peak behind Li Yang.
Immediately, a huge gap was blasted out of the ruined mountain peak!
The next second, just when Bernard was about to attack again, the ground shook suddenly. This time the vibration was no longer an illusion, but a reality!
what happened?
Bernard and Li Yang were stunned for a moment. With their keen perception, they noticed that there seemed to be an extremely terrifying force gathering beneath the ground.
In the distance, Cheng Lin had also turned around. He sensed something was wrong when Bernard launched the attack, but after all, it was too late. Even the sword could not stop him. He could only watch helplessly as Bernard issued a warning.
A strong blow.
Immediately, when he saw Li Yang ducking away, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he felt the mountains and rivers below him shaking violently.
It seems like something is about to break out of the ground!
"Is this... could it be..." Cheng Lin was startled for a moment, and suddenly looked at the mountain that had collapsed due to Bernard's attack, his face slightly changed, "Oops!"
