Chapter 145 Xu Qian's Plan
Chapter 145 Xu Qian's Plan
In the monster camp, Tianma and Qiongqi both felt unprecedented pressure.
Qilin is aloof and rarely interacts with other monsters, but its prestige in the monster world is extremely high. In response to Qilin's question, Tianma and Qiongqi immediately replied: "It is trustworthy and we are willing to guarantee it with our lives."
They knew that Xia Zhongnan had an unusually close relationship with the two of them. If anything happened here, Xia Zhongnan would definitely break off all ties with the monsters and start a fierce battle without hesitation. The resolute spirit he had shown in the Immortal Lord's Palace before, "I will go even if there are thousands of people against me," now left them with deep awe.
Qilin nodded and said, "Okay, I believe you. Then, tell me your next plan."
Tianma replied, "I see. Xia Zhongnan, also known as Linghu Chong, is another name for him. He was the one who guided us to find the forbidden passage between the Immortal Residence and the outside world, and was confident that he would lead us to evacuate safely. But he is in a difficult situation now. He is besieged by more than 40 human cultivators in the Return to Void Realm and hundreds of cultivators in the Transformation Realm in the Immortal Lord's Palace.
Lord Bai Ze is leading other monsters to closely monitor the situation in that area, and he also ordered us to return to the Monster Garden and lead everyone to provide support. And these two human friends, because they know the secret method of passing through the fog, came with us to guide everyone out of trouble safely..."
Time is running out, tonight I will teach you how to travel freely in the fog in batches." Tianma explained the situation in the most concise words, but the monsters around him all showed distrust in their eyes and remained silent.
The blazing beast Qiongqi was extremely anxious and said, "Tianma has explained the matter clearly. The situation is critical. It is right to go to the foggy land in batches as soon as possible! I can guide five fellow practitioners, and the three of them can lead five each, so there will be twenty people at a time. After these practitioners are familiar with this method, I can teach more..."
Before Qiongqi finished speaking, Qilin stretched out its claws to signal him to stop, and asked, "What is Xia Zhongnan's current level of cultivation?"
Qiongqi replied: "I have reached the state of transformation into a god."
Qilin snorted coldly: "You just mentioned that Xia Zhongnan was besieged by more than 40 human cultivators in the Return to Void stage and hundreds of cultivators in the Transformation stage. Even cultivators in the Fusion stage would be able to deal with such a battle. He is only a cultivator in the Transformation stage. How can you let us believe what you said?"
Qinglong said, "I have fought with Xia Zhongnan before. Among the human cultivators at the Divine Transformation Stage, his combat capability is indeed top-notch. But even so, it is still difficult for him to fight against a human cultivator at the Void Return Stage, let alone to fend off the joint siege of more than 40 cultivators at the Void Return Stage and hundreds of cultivators at the Divine Transformation Stage? Even with the help of the Seven Demons of Bai Ze, I am afraid it will only increase casualties."
Upon hearing this, Qiongqi anxiously argued: "This is the fact. If you have any doubts, you can ask Tianma. It also witnessed this with its own eyes."
After saying this, Qiongqi looked towards the Pegasus.
Tianma had an embarrassed look on his face as he pondered the questions raised by Qilin and Qinglong. He knew very well that the facts before him were difficult to explain clearly. However, the facts were so tricky that he himself did not know how to start.
The demon beasts were simple-minded, so how could they have ever thought about analyzing the mutual checks and balances among the human besiegers? Gu Xiuzhang was also straightforward and did not understand the ways of power and intrigue in the world, so he also did not know how to answer.
At this moment, Xu Qian said, "We wanted to teach you how to pass through the fog out of kindness, but you became suspicious of this. The situation is critical at this moment, and we cannot afford to waste time with you. In this case, I will go to the human race to seek help."
After she finished speaking, she was about to leave.
After a struggle, Xu Qian finally realized that it was no longer important whether she would be caught by Xu Dejing. Xia Zhongnan was in a precarious situation. Without her help, Xu Dejing might not be able to escape from the Immortal Palace. So she decided to find Xu Dejing and persuade him to rescue Xia Zhongnan together, and then use Xia Zhongnan to lead Xu Dejing out of the Immortal Palace. This move was also an opportunity for Xia Zhongnan and Xu Dejing to get to know each other better.
At this time, a strange monster with a human face and a horse body, tiger stripes and bird wings, shouted: "You want to go to the land of the human race?"
Xu Qian replied: "Yes, since you don't believe me, why should I be humiliated here?"
The monster's name was Ying Zhao. He snorted coldly, "If you really have other plans, now that you're here, do you think you can leave so easily?"
Xu Qian stared at Ying Zhao and said ruthlessly, "If you dare to touch a hair on my head, you will be buried with me! If you dare to touch me, you will pay with your life."
In the swirling fog, facing so many monsters and ferocious beasts, she did not want to get entangled too much. Moreover, these strange beasts were noisy and argumentative, and it was very chaotic. If she continued to argue like this, it would be hard to tell when the issue could be resolved. It was better to deal with it in a tough manner and let them make their own decision.
Faced with Xu Qian's challenge, Ying Zhao was about to make a "thunderous move".
Suddenly, a huge beast claw came out of nowhere and gently hit Ying Zhao on the head, causing him to sway and almost fall.
Ying Zhao turned his head to fight back, but he saw that the owner of the claw was a tiger with snow-white fur. Next to it stood a ferocious beast Taowu with tiger feet and a pig's mouth, glaring at him. Ying Zhao was so frightened that he took a step back silently and dared not say another word.
Qilin asked, "White Tiger, what is your intention?"
Baihu replied: "I believe their words, they have no intention to deceive us. We all know that this immortal palace is on the verge of extinction. If we continue to stay here, we will only be destroyed. Do we still have to stay here and fight to the death with those human cultivators?"
As expected, Baihu saw things clearly. Staying here would only lead to a dead end. Now that there is another choice, is there any need to hesitate?
Qilin said firmly: "Okay, as you said, select twenty strange beasts and follow them to learn how to break through the fog."
Before he finished speaking, many strange beasts shouted in response: "I'm willing to go!" "I'll join too!"
Many strange beasts have long been tired of fighting with human cultivators every day. Such fighting is like torture for them. After all, there are many powerful people in the human race who have entered the Return to Void Realm and are much stronger than them. Not to mention that once they are defeated by human cultivators, their fate is to be skinned and torn apart.
Xu Qian said, "You only need to gather fifteen exotic beasts. I need to rush to the human side and have no time to teach you."
The beasts' faces suddenly changed, and Qilin quickly explained: "What happened before was purely a misunderstanding. Now that it has been clarified, please don't hold any more grudges. I guess you also hope that we can support Xia Zhongnan as soon as possible, right?"
Qilin rarely showed his weak side, but Xu Qian still insisted: "I have already said that I must go to the human race. You don't need to persuade me anymore."
The strange beasts were all angry. Qiongqi was anxious and stretched out a sharp front claw to grab the corner of Xu Qian's clothes: "Miss Xu, I can feel Xia Zhongnan's deep love for you. How can you be so willful at this critical moment?"
