Chapter 339 What to do?
Chapter 339 What to do?
Qingzhi closed his eyes slightly and said nothing.
His meaning was very clear. The sect competition was of great significance and it was impossible to interrupt it rashly because of a small incident.
At least before the worst happens, he will not allow anyone to hinder the fairness of the competition.
Chongdao was so angry that he wanted to say something, but was pulled back by Hongyun who was standing beside him. At the same time, she also comforted Shen Shiyue, the head of the Beast Taming Peak, who was eager to speak out.
"The Sect Master has his own considerations. Don't worry, the Sect Master will never let them be in danger."
As he spoke, he signaled to them with his eyes that the leader's orders must not be disobeyed.
Even though Chongdao and Shen Shiyue were very anxious, they had to suppress their anxiety for the time being and stared closely at Jiang Liqian and the others on the sphere.
At this time, their fight with the long-horned deer had entered a stalemate. The long-horned deer's attack was very fierce, and most of it was blocked by the third baseman. Jiang Liqian, Ye Anan and Xin Sui were waiting for an opportunity to attack, while Sheng Yang was responsible for diverting the long-horned deer's attention from time to time to create opportunities for them to attack.
The entire mountaintop was filled with flying sand, and birds took to the sky. The huge commotion was even witnessed by the disciples who were searching for the golden leaves nearby. They didn't know what was going on there, so they were all on high alert, watching the situation there.
When they saw that it was several disciples fighting against the long-horned deer, they immediately went over to help. Unfortunately, the terrain there was not conducive to sword control, and there were no disciples above the Nascent Soul stage among them. The aftermath of the fight between the two sides was enough to blow them away.
Its cultivation level was suppressed, and for some unknown reason, the long-horned deer, which should have been relatively gentle, was extremely violent at this moment. When it attacked, it even had the tendency to break through to become a sixth-level monster.
The little phoenix was still too young, and the long-horned deer kicked it head-on, injuring it directly. Xin Sui and Jiang Liqian were also in a mess, their clothes torn and their arms and faces covered in blood. Sheng Yang's face was even more pale, and he was almost unable to withstand the pressure of the long-horned deer.
Among them, only Third Base was in good condition, but he was distracted by the need to protect them and could only barely save them from the furious attack of the long-horned deer.
The long-horned deer opened its mouth and spit out a stream of dark blue water, which rushed straight towards the third baseman. Cold sweat soon appeared on the third baseman's forehead.
"What should we do?" the third baseman asked loudly to his teammates behind him.
Several people looked at each other and saw anxiety in each other's eyes.
It's not that they didn't try to escape, but the antler deer didn't give them any chance, as if they would harm something important to it.
Now it's probably a fight to the death. Either it lives or they die.
Jiang Liqian clenched the Zhenlingzhu in her hand, thinking that there was a method she could try, but her current cultivation level was far behind that of a sixth-level monster, and she didn't know if she could achieve the desired effect.
She told them her plan.
Ye Anan treated the little phoenix's wounds with great care, without any hesitation: "No problem, I can do it."
Xin Sui did not refuse and nodded in agreement.
Jiang Liqian looked at Sheng Yang: "Stay behind Senior Brother Sanlei, and be sure to protect yourself, okay?"
Sheng Yang nodded seriously.
They exchanged glances. Ye Anan, along with Little Phoenix and Xin Sui, quickly rushed out from behind the third base's earth escape technique. Ye Anan's eyes darkened as he drew his sword and ordered Little Phoenix to attack the long-horned deer with Samadhi True Fire. Together with Huo Feng, they engaged the deer head-on with lightning speed. The flames, swirling around the sword, unexpectedly broke through the deer's protective magical power and slashed off a small horn. Fire snakes instantly entwined themselves with the deer's flesh, spurred by the flowing blood.
The horned deer felt pain and neighed with its head raised.
Xin Sui took the opportunity to use the sound of the flute to trap the long-horned deer in a dreamlike state of deep sleep.
At the same time, the third baseman covered them with a layer of soil to protect them from attacks.
Jiang Liqian rose up on the wind, without wasting a second, he raised his hand and cut his palm, letting the blood splash onto the main bead of the Zhenling Pearl. The golden word "Zhen" suddenly appeared from the bead, carrying a majestic aura, and pressed heavily towards the long-horned deer that was still trapped in the illusion.
The long-horned deer sensed the deadly danger and struggled violently. Xin Sui held on with great effort, but was finally defeated and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The long-horned deer broke free from the illusion and wanted to escape, but it was too late. A huge golden word "Zhen" fell from the sky, and the pure and vast power of thunder directly crushed its bones and severed its meridians. It was left with only one breath, and all the demonic power in its body was completely dissipated.
Its power can be seen in punishing evil and suppressing evil spirits.
Jiang Liqian felt as if all the spiritual power in his body was drained away in an instant by the Soul-Suppressing Pearl. He staggered and fell to his knees on the ground, his vision going black.
Seeing that the long-horned deer had been killed, Sheng Yang quickly ran over and stuffed a Peiyuan Pill into each person's pocket.
The third baseman stepped forward quickly, ready to kill the dying long-horned deer to prevent future trouble.
"Wait." Ye Anan suddenly called out to the third baseman.
The third baseman turned to look at her, confused.
Ye Anan pointed at the long-horned deer's belly: "It...it seems to be pregnant."
Everyone looked at the belly of the long-horned deer at the same time. Sure enough, there was a slight bulge there. They also recalled that when they were fighting with the long-horned deer, the long-horned deer had been consciously protecting its belly. No wonder the long-horned deer, which was relatively gentle, was so irritable today. It was obvious that it felt that they threatened its unborn cub.
It’s strange to say, this long-horned deer was sleeping in the mountain and raising its cubs, so why did it suddenly wake up and attack them?
If it weren't for the protection of Senior Brother Sanlei who is in the Nascent Soul stage today, Ye Anan and Xin Sui are both the leaders of the younger generation, and Jiang Liqian happens to have spiritual roots that are specifically designed to defeat demons and evil spirits, and has a magic weapon like the Zhenlingzhu, they would probably all have died here!
"This...should we let it go?" Third baseman scratched his head, not knowing what to do.
Normally, a demon beast should be killed upon encounter, especially since it nearly took their lives. But it was pregnant with a cub, and God had mercy on them. They were cultivators, not bloodthirsty killers...
Ye Anan stepped forward, sheathed her sword, and walked over to the long-horned deer. She took out a small square golden cage printed with the Ye family crest. The small golden cage was only the size of her palm, but when she opened it, it directly took in the long-horned deer, which was three people tall.
"This deer won't survive, but I can bring it back to the Ye family and use my secret method to help it give birth safely. After the Ye family trains and seals away its evil spirits, its cubs will be able to form bonds with humans like ordinary spirit beasts." Ye Anan asked for everyone's opinions. "Do you think this is an okay approach?"
After all, children are innocent.
No one objected to her proposal.
The few of them had just fought a fierce battle and had no time to catch their breath when they saw countless white lights lighting up from under their feet, and then everyone disappeared into the secret realm.
