"This Mao Tu probably doesn’t dare to lie, but she isn’t really a core member and might not know the whole plan. I think there’s something fishy here! Little Ya, what do you think?" Xu Shu asked.
Xiao Ya nodded: "More than just fishy? Trying to defy a Demigod with third-rank power is reckless and overestimating oneself. But what I’m more curious about is..."
She suddenly stopped, leaving a hook to entice a question.
"What is it?" Xu Shu endured his impatience and followed her lead.
Xiao Ya then said: "There’s just about ten minutes difference before and after everyone entered the ruins, how did they know so much, yet I couldn’t find it out? You should know that even I’m not too familiar with this place... I used to play around Luling Platform when I was a child!"
While speaking, she frowned fiercely, a dissatisfied look written all over her face.
"Uh~"
Xu Shu was momentarily speechless, thinking to himself that if you’re insisting, I’ll be direct.
Zhong Xiaoya, aren’t you just a waste?
In fights, you are a layabout dog; in explorations, you are equally incompetent.
Before, while at the underground river of Luling Platform, Voodoo had already gone into Liu Yuan’s Tomb to dig graves, and where were you, Zhong Xiaoya?
Oh hey!
You haven’t even figured out the location of the Golden Image White Tiger Cave!
It’s due to your decent strength, coupled with your connection with Old Yu, that you’re considered one of us, that’s why I’m willing to unite with you.
Otherwise, I’d be too lazy to bother with someone and something so slow, like a dead fish!
In my view, with Judgement Department dropping to such a roadside level within the Penglai Safety Zone, you, Zhong Xiaoya, unquestionably bear unshirkable responsibility and have made an indelible contribution.
Useless thing!
Xu Shu secretly vomited a torrent of criticism, yet his face displayed a "you’re so smart" kind of praise, pondering for a while he said: "Putting aside how they know so many secret pathways, I think we can try to reap the fisherman’s benefits, what do you think?"
"You want to double-cross them?" Xiao Ya understood, lowering her voice, "You mean to take advantage and ambush Yan Hui, killing him here directly?"
Xu Shu sneered: "Of course! Enemies are bound to meet at narrow corners. Since Yan Hui comes here today, it’s a heaven-sent opportunity to me, how can I let him leave alive? Today should end this enmity and conclude this grudge!
"Moreover, Voodoo has come too, being able to operate in the ruins, he must be in true form here! I suspect that perhaps the Seven Treasures Lotus is truly hidden in the Xuanmen Treasure Vault under Big Temple Mountain, don’t you feel tempted?"
The intelligence attained during prior questioning of Mao Tu was rather important.
This time the leader coming to Xuanmen is unsurprisingly this person ranked number two hundred who has a relentless feud with Xu Shu, "Purple Qi Comes From The East", Yan Hui!
Xu Shu speculated, given Yan Hui’s strength, he probably is the highest Commander leading the Salvation Army this time – in the Salvation Army, those who can resolutely suppress someone at Yan Hui’s level are only at the "General" rank, which is already Demigod, how could they have entered Penglai unnoticed by Bai Yujing?
Apart from this, Voodoo who cooperates highly with Annihilation Association and Ghost Killing Sect has also arrived.
Perhaps he is here due to the matter of his puppet being killed by Yu Mingluan in White Tiger Cave, who knows.
In any case, for Xu Shu, regardless of whether the treasure exists, with these two appearing here, he absolutely wants to kill them as soon as possible if there’s an opportunity!
The only disappointment is that equally a mid-level figure among Red Emperor Army, that "Red Archbishop" Bruce White seems not to have come this time, otherwise he would definitely be killed here as well!
"Tsk~ Such strong killing intent~"
Xiao Ya clicked her tongue, observing Xu Shu, softly said, "Xu Shu Bro is so intent on killing, could it be that you have the confidence to take down everyone from the Red Emperor Army alone?"
"I can’t do it alone." Xu Shu shook his head, then calmly looked at her and said, "But isn’t today with you around? Little Ya sister, Yan Hui and Voodoo are yours, the rest of the Holy Knights, along with many second and first-rank masters are mine, together, we can annihilate them, what do you say?"
"Since when does Xu Shu Bro hold me in such high regard?" Xiao Ya feigned surprise.
"Can you do it?" Xu Shu got serious.
Xiao Ya was momentarily stunned: "Uh, you wouldn’t... be serious, right?"
"Am I joking with you?" Xu Shu was speechless.
All this time Xiao Ya thought they were messing around?
Xiao Ya suddenly placed her hand on her forehead: "If you’re being serious, then seriously, isn’t this a bit beyond our capacity? It’s just the two of us, how many people does Red Emperor Army have? Don’t... uh."
She initially meant to advise Xu Shu not to get carried away; as a gentleman doesn’t stand under dangerous walls, we are too outnumbered to fight with few against many.
This time Red Emperor Army conveniently gathered their large forces at Luling Platform, undoubtedly the strongest in power, most numerous within the ruins.
After leaving the ruins, recruiting our people, then confronting them with full force won’t be too late.
Red Emperor Army is indeed substantial, unknowingly sending so many Transcendents into Penglai District, but it still can’t compare to Judgement Department. Then we can easily overpower them and beat them to death.
However, just as she wanted to say this, thoughts suddenly flashed in her mind of Xu Shu being trapped in the Revelation Array moments ago.
