Chapter 550 Infighting?

Shi Lang and the other two sat in the distance, watching the demons engage in dual cultivation. It has now been an hour since the stakeout began. They did not have to worry about someone else sneaking up on them. Shi Lang had spread out the probes in a diameter of three kilometers.

Bo Qingtan asked, "Do you think if these guys are luring out the talents of the righteous path, they do not have the capital to defend themselves? They just want us to think they are slacking while they kill us."

Shi Lang nodded, but Yun Xue said, "I agree with you, but the thing is, when the dual cultivation ends, it is accompanied by a burst of intoxication. This intoxication renders the demonic cultivators dazed for a few seconds."

The terran sighed and said, "I can understand what you are saying, Daoist Yun Xue, but I believe they have some means to defend themselves."

Yun Xue nodded and said, "That must be the case, but we will learn how they defend and how the people attack."

Suddenly, Bo Qingtan leaned forward and said, "They are moving."

Shi Lang and Yun Xue also focused on the pictures of the leaves. The tree crown was big enough to accommodate them with ease.

..

The experts from the moon tower city moved through the woods and stopped at the end of the tree line. One of the four people asked, "Senior Brother Xu, why did you stop?"

The young man he was addressing had a cold face and sword-like eyes. He said, "They are waiting for us."

The other three were surprised, but they recovered soon. These people have seen fights and been in fights also. It was not that hard to put things together. Disciple Xu said, "Two will stay behind and attack from a distance, while Jang will come with me."

Jang was the person who spoke earlier. He nodded firmly and took out his sword. The two moved out of the tree line while the other two took out their bows and aimed to support the two seniors.

Xu and Jang were getting closer to the demonic cultivators. However, the other party had no intention of moving.

The young lady sitting in the lap of the young man of the demonic sect said, "Now that you have come, we can begin."

The two of them did not even care about their condition when they both jumped up to their feet. The couple was almost naked, looking at Xu and Jang with sneers.

The two from the Moon Tower City did not show any fear, but then something made them freeze in their spots. Two more people got up from the ground. These people were lying on the ground under the cultivating couple. What made this surprising was that these Bo Qingtan clicked his tongue and said, "These bastards are snakes."

Yun Xue nodded as she frowned. They watched, and Shi Lang said, people were covered in a shallow layer of dirt.

Jang said in a soft tone, "Senior Brother Xu."

Xu nodded and waved his hand behind his back. The two people providing cover understood the situation, and they set off signal flairs.

..

Shi Lang looked at the situation and opened his eyes wide. He exclaimed, "What the fuck!"

Bo Qingtan clicked his tongue and said, "These bastards are snakes."

Yun Xue nodded as she frowned. They watched, and Shi Lang said, "The second team moved."

The backup team reacted quickly, as they must have seen the signal flare. Bo Qingtan asked, "What if the other two people from the demon sect were here? Can we check for them?"

Shi Lang nodded and interacted with the communicator. Suddenly, the picture on the leaves changed, and Shi Lang narrowed his eyes. He said, "They are walking in a trap."

Bo Qingtan took a deep breath and asked, "What the fuck is this?"

Shi Lang said, "Back in the lower realm, we found a way to integrate advanced technology with spiritual arts. The probes of my communicator are engraved with array patterns. They can detect arrays formations, and this one is not good."

Yun Xue gulped and said, "To think that we co-incidentally managed to stay in this spot just outside the effective range." This chapter's initial release occurred on the N0v3l-B1n site.

Shi Lang said, "The best timing to attack them will be after the formation is activated. Only then would we be able to locate the formation eye and break through it? However, I doubt that the men will die by then."

Yun Xue asked, "But if they died, will that not put greater pressure on us?"

Shi Lang shook his head and said, "It will not. The nodes of the formation indicate that it is a big formation. If we break the array, the casters will suffer the backlash. However, if we go in now, we are dead."

Yun Xue clenched her fists and jumped off the tree. Shi Lang thought she was rushing in the formation to face the demonic cultivators, and he jumped behind her.

The terran landed on the ground and found Yun Xue staring toward the formation. Shi Lang asked, "Daoist Yun Xue, what is it?"

Yun Xue glared at him with frosty eyes. She said, "What do you care for? We are not friends, Daoist Shi Lang. I would appreciate it if you minded your own business."

Shi Lang was surprised by this remark. He wanted to ask if he had ever offended her, but then he recalled the scene at the end of the tournament when he refused her polite advances.

He sighed and said, "Yun Xue, it is not that I do not wish to be friends with you, but we can only be friends, and that was why I called you Daoist Yun Xue. I do not wish to disrespect your dignity."

Yun Xue turned around to look at him and said, "I am not asking for your permission. I admire you for your strength like any other woman will. You wish to stay dedicated, good for you but do not think that your refusal will save me any dignity. Leave me alone, Shi Lang."

The terran shook his head and said, "I do not have the habit of leaving my compatriots in suffering, whether emotional or physical."

Yun Xue took her sword and said, "If you do not leave now, I will kill you. This time, I will not hold back."

The temperature began to fall rapidly.
