Chapter 254 – Two More Down

Creak Creak~~~

In the silence, Little Boo emerged from the pile of rocks.

“Oops. You can’t get back in after you fall.”

So, Huo Feng’s not dead?

This made everyone sigh in relief.

Fortunately, he’s fine.

It’d better if we didn’t know each other. We have connections some way or another, and if he was really dead, it would be hard for the rest of our days.

Since n.o.body would die…

Ying’s eyes shone, and another attack was launched in Zhang Rulin’s direction.

Luckily for him, Zhang Rulin was flexible and reacted quickly. He leaned backward and looked at the Ye brothers.

Huo Feng was no longer in this battle now. Ye Zhenyan was sure that, if he didn’t save Zhang Rulin and join forces with him, they would both be gone too.

Sword energy emerged, and water rose up toward Ying.

On the other hand, Junior Brother He looked over at Ling Wuxia and went for Lu Mingshu.

Ling Wuxia let out her silk and leaped over to the stone table.

Lu Mingshu’s eyes shone, and her sword energy switched directions.

Zzz~!

Junior Brother He’s mystic light s.h.i.+eld had a crack. Lu Mingshu didn’t stop her attack; she went straight for Ling Wuxia.

Even with that, it was still a simple thing for Ling Wuxia. Thankfully, Ye Mingguang was fast enough to get in her way and block her.

The situation sunk into a weird atmosphere again. Because it was confirmed that no death would happen, everyone went all-out.

Ye Zhenyan looked over at Zhang Rulin, exchanged glances, and they both pounced on Junior Brother He.

Lu Mingshu wasn’t bad, and Ying was very experienced. Getting rid of either of them would be hard. Choosing the easiest one to get rid of now was easy – Junior Brother He.

Losing this helper, Ling Wuxia would be less scary.

Compared to Ye Zhenyan’s group, Lu Mingshu and Ying would want to get rid of Ling Wuxia even more. These three tigresses weren’t weak, and in the end, Lu Mingshu and Ying would be rather tired after fighting Ling Wuxia….

In conclusion, it was the perfect plan. If Junior Brother He was really eliminated, a lot of good things would happen to them.

But how easy could it be to get rid of Junior Brother He? He was an Ancient Jade Summit elite, and even though he wasn’t as good as Ling Wuxia, he would’ve been on the New Generation Ranking during the Qilin Festival had he partic.i.p.ated. And with Junior Sister Zuo as an example, Ling Wuxia wouldn’t let it happen.

As soon as Zhang Rulin and Ye Zhenyan attacked, Ling Wuxia immediately reacted.

She threw out her white silk, and an energy wave swept past the place. As accurate as a sword, it sliced through the area.

Seeing this, Ying exchanged a glance with Lu Mingshu – to attack Ling Wuxia together!

With Lu Mingshu only, Ling Wuxia had no less than a 70% chance of winning, but with Ying added in, it would quite possibly be a balanced fight.

Ling Wuxia didn’t ignore their attack though. Everyone saw her leap into the air, mystic light enlarging, and her Sword Intent was everywhere.

This was the first time that she actually fought in Jasper Sun Mountain.

If she continued to not fight, she would lose the upper hand.

How could she allow that to happen? To Ling Wuxia, losing was never an option!

The chain of Mystic Dewdrops on Lu Mingshu’s wrist shone brightly with mystic force, and the blue light dispersed through the area.

As if the chain of Mystic Dewdrops had frozen, the blue light shone everywhere, every part of the cave submerged with Water Intent.

Like a fish swimming in the deep sea!

Ling Wuxia took out a jade from her pocket and threw it over at Lu Mingshu.

Boom!

Lu Mingshu flew back, and the blue light disappeared.

At the same moment, Junior Brother He seized the chance and launched an attack at Zhang Rulin.

The impact was so huge that no one was left unaffected. Zhang Rulin was dumbfounded by the sudden impact that threw him back. Being unable to react in time, the attack was successful. Zhang Rulin then dropped off the stone pillar.

“Brother Zhang!” Ye Zhenyan dashed toward him.

But why would Ying miss this chance? She blocked Ye Zhenyan’s route immediately, and all Ye Zhenyan could do was watch Zhang Rulin fall.

Now, there was only six left!

…

“I’m not worried that they’ll fight.” Yu Ruohan looked at her feet. “I’m only worried that…”

She looked over at the Ye Family, and Sir Ning nodded.

Ancient Jade Summit was obviously powerful, so they had no reasons to play any tricks. Among the three big aristocratic families, the Huo Family was famous for being straightforward and enjoying fights, so they weren’t much of a threat either. However, Ye Zhenyan liked to play mind games, and Zhang Rulin was very good at manipulating people. If they joined forces… Yu Ruohan and Sir Nin weren’t 100% sure that Lu Mingshu would be craftier than them.

No matter what, she was only sixteen, so how much experience could she have?

There was always someone better.

Suddenly, they heard some noises outside.

Yu Ruohan flipped up the cover and dashed outside.

Who is it this time around?

Everyone saw that there were bubbles emerging from the entrance, as if something was about to come out.

At this point in time, the Spirit Realm elders all looked out of their tents.

Under the eyes of everyone, someone emerged from under the water.

Pui!

Huo Feng came out, spitting out a mouthful of water.

“Elder brother!”

“Young Master!”

The Huo Family rushed to the water, still in a daze, and pulled Huo Feng up hurriedly.

“Hais.h.!.+” The Huo Family elder sighed dejectedly. Sixth Huo was out already, and now that Huo Feng was out too, the Huo Family had no more hope.

Yu Ruohan patted her chest.

Luckily, it’s not Lu Mingshu.

After a while, more bubbles could be seen from the entrance.

With Huo Feng as an example, the rest were suddenly in a panic, afraid that it would be their own disciple.

“Brother!”

Seeing the person, Zhang Jingyu rushed forth.

The Zhang Family was dejected, while the rest heaved a sigh of relief.

As long as it wasn’t from their family…

Just then, Xuan Xiu walked over. “Senior Sister, Senior Brother, I overheard the Huo Family members saying that…”

…

Six of them, on six of the stone pillars.

Ling Wuxia and Junior Brother He. Ying and Lu Mingshu.

Ye Zhenyan looked at himself, then at Ye Mingguang, and gritted his teeth.

No matter how arrogant he was, he knew that they were now hopeless. He could maybe deal with Junior Brother He or Ying, and if he was lucky, Lu Mingshu, and but he would never beat Ling Wuxia. They were way stronger than him, and he only had Ye Mingguang as a companion now.

Speaking of pure ability, Ye Mingguang was the weakest among the eight. It was only thanks to Lady Luck being on his side that he could persevere until now. However, if things got real, Ye Zhenyan and Ye Mingguang wouldn’t be enough to go against Ling Wuxia or Lu Mingshu.

Huo Feng first, now Zhang Rulin. The three aristocratic families were now down to one. The Ye Family was now alone.

But even if he were to die, he would pull someone down with him!

Ye Zhenyan’s eyes lit up, and mystic light covered his sword as he dashed toward Ying, who was the closest.

Ye Mingguang acted too. He knew that he wasn’t good enough, so he just cooperated fully with Ye Zhenyan.

With the brothers joining forces, Ying was now at a loss.

Lu Mingshu reacted immediately, her sword moving toward Ye Zhenyan.
