Chapter 2078: We Can’t Win

The moment Jing Yunyan and his team saw Leng Shaoting take out the magic crystal, they were furious.

“d.a.m.n it, that’s my magic crystal!” said Jing Yunyan angrily. He left the demonic monster which was almost killed by him behind and went to attack Leng Shaoting to grab the magic crystal which was supposed to be his.

Afterwards, Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyan began to fight against each other.

When senior cultivators had a fight, they used magic. In an instant, the wind blew scarily and hurled broken trees everywhere. That being the case, other people could also be hurt, so Gu Ning pulled Mo Qilin and walked away at once.

Mortals would be stunned by that scene, because they could normally only see something like that in a TV show. It was something written in mysterious fantasy novels.

When Leng Shaoting and Jing Yunyan were in a fight, Jing Yunyan used his full strength, while Leng Shaoting only used 70% of his strength, which was already enough for him to defeat Jing Yunyan.

Both of them were in the Golden Core Stage, but Jing Yunyan was in the primary stage and Leng Shaoting was at the peak. There seemed to be a small gap, but it was actually quite a large difference.

Witnessing Jing Yunyan at a helpless disadvantage, his teammates stopped fighting with the demonic monsters and turned to help him.

Seeing that, Gu Ning told Mo Qilin to protect himself and joined the fight without hesitation.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting were now fighting with Jing Yunyan and his three teammates, but they were still at an advantage, because Gu Ning was stronger than cultivators in the Fusion Stage.

As they had fought, they were also dealing with demonic monsters, so there were three groups of people and monsters in a fierce fight.

Gu Ning, Leng Shaoting, and Jing Yunyan could easily avoid demonic monsters, but the other people weren’t so lucky. They had to fight back.

In that case, they couldn’t focus on Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning, which gave Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting enough time to defeat Jing Yunyan and his team.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting had no intention of seriously injuring Jing Yunyan. They simply aimed to defeat him and stop him from stealing the magic crystal.

During their fight, the demonic monsters were all killed, but they didn’t have any magic crystals, so neither Gu Ning nor Leng Shaoting bothered to give them a glance.

After Jing Yunyan figured out that he was no match for Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, he stopped fighting, but was reluctant to accept the reality. He glared at Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, then criticized them coldly. “You’re bullying us.”

“We didn’t break the rules. If you can, come and steal our magic crystals,” said Gu Ning arrogantly.

“You…” Jing Yunyan was mad. He didn’t know what to say because it was indeed allowed. Gu Ning also challenged him to steal their magic crystals.

He wanted to do that, but he knew he wouldn’t succeed. If he could, he wouldn’t be so mad.

Gu Ning couldn’t be more pleased seeing Jing Yunyan so mad at them. He couldn’t do anything about it anyway. Even Leng Shaoting enjoyed the result.

Jing Yunyan and his team stopped attacking Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, and vice versa.

“Let’s go!” Leng Shaoting left with his teammates.

Jing Yunyan didn’t stop them, because he wasn’t able to do that. He could only watch them walking away with strong killing intent in his eyes. If his look could kill, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting would be dead already.

Actually, even if looks could kill, Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting wouldn’t give Jing Yunyan the chance to kill them with his look.

“What should we do now, Lord Jing?” asked Jing Yunyan’s teammate.

“We can’t win. There is nothing we can do. You’re useless!” Jing Yunyan vented his anger on his people.

Jing Yunyan’s teammates felt quite aggrieved, but didn’t dare to say anything. Jing Yunyan was at the highest level among them after all. If they were at the same level as Jing Yunyan, they wouldn’t have lost the fight.

Although Jing Yunyan was very angry after losing a fifth-level magic crystal, he wouldn’t quit just because of that, so he had to continue to finish the game.

When Gu Ning’s team had walked far away, Mo Qilin said in great excitement, “It was so pleasant seeing Jing Yunyan filled with anger but unable to do anything! He always bullied me before, so he deserved that treatment!”

Hearing that, Gu Ning only gave a smile. She actually wanted to steal all the magic crystals from Jing Yunyan, but she just searched for their bodies and found no more magic crystals.

Gu Ning didn’t believe that they had no more magic crystals, because she saw Jing Yunyan carrying a Qiankun Bag, so he must have put all of his magic crystals away in the Qiankun Bag.

Leng Shaoting also put away his magic crystals in his Qiankun Bag, while Gu Ning’s were in her telepathic eye s.p.a.ce. Only Mo Qilin put them in his strap on his body.

In that case, his enemies wouldn’t be able to grab his magic crystals, unless he was defeated and forced to take them out.

Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, however, didn’t need to do that.

…

Because the magic crystal was stolen away by Gu Ning and Leng Shaoting, Jing Yunyan was furious at this moment.

As a result, when he saw other people who were at lower levels than him fighting with demonic monsters, he would go to steal the fruits of their labor too. Unfortunately, there were no magic crystals, so he directly started to grab other people’s magic crystals and successfully got two at the second level.

Those who were robbed of their magic crystals were hopping mad, but they couldn’t defeat Jing Yunyan, so they had to accept the result.

“Jing Yunyan is so shameless. How could he rob other people of magic crystals?”

“Well, it’s allowed by the rules.”

“…”

Gu Ning’s team walked ahead for a while, and again saw familiar people fighting with four demonic monsters. They were Baili Zongxue and her teammates.

Baili Zongxue was at the same level as Mo Qilin, so she was no match for the fourth-level demonic monsters.

What was worse, there were many demonic monsters, so her teammates couldn’t help her. As a result, Baili Zongxue was retreating under a demonic monster’s attack. The demonic monster Baili Zongxue was dealing with had a magic crystal.

This time, Gu Ning went over with Leng Shaoting and Mo Qilin again. Given her relations.h.i.+p with Baili Zongxue, she wouldn’t go to steal Baili Zongxue’s magic crystals, she was just going to help her.

However, when they went closer, Mo Qilin saw Baili Zongxue’s team and asked Gu Ning worriedly, “Senior Qing He, are we going to steal theirs?”

Because he didn’t know Gu Ning’s relations.h.i.+p with Baili Zongxue and they had just stolen Jing Yunyan’s magic crystal, he unavoidably had that thought right now.

Mo Qilin wasn’t familiar with Baili Zongxue, but he knew her and he had a good impression of the Baili family. His master had told him that the Baili family had the best reputation and principles among the four major families. Therefore, he didn’t want to see Gu Ning steal their magic crystals.
