Chapter 1857 - 1857: Dominating the Executioner Scholar (Seventh Update)
Upon hearing this, the most infuriated person was indeed Ye Qing. The relationship between Huangfu Ziyu and Ye Qing need not be said, and Shen Qingyi was someone Ye Qing once admired dearly. Although they could not be together, Ye Qing absolutely would not allow others to insult them with words like this."Relying on these vile snakes to besiege us, is this your capability?" Ye Qing shouted in a deep voice, "What bullshit Snake Gentleman, I think you're nothing much, just a cowardly turtle hiding in its shell!"
Snake Gentleman replied coldly, "Ye Qing, you don't need to say those useless words to me. I'll kill them first, then interrogate you harshly. Hmph, if you don't hand over Buddha's Relic, I will definitely make you beg for life and death impossible!"
With Snake Gentleman's words, the bushes around began to rustle again, and with the movement, many venomous snakes crawled out from within. And what's most terrifying, dozens of those pythons also crawled out, each larger than the previous, and the last python was as thick as a barrel, looking truly frightening.
Now the remaining two cars were completely trapped, unable to move forward at all. Wolf Monk and the Killing Gate followers got off the cars, each with grim faces seeing this situation. Surrounded by so many venomous snakes, escaping with their lives seemed difficult indeed.
"What should we do?" Demon Queen He Qinghua's voice was trembling slightly, although normally strong, she was still a woman. Seeing these things, how could she possibly handle it?
"Ye Qing, did you bring any survival medicine?" Bai Li Xi whispered, "Hand one to each person, at least we won't die from poisoning!"
Ye Qing hurriedly took out the Devouring Demon Flower from his body, giving a slice to each person. Everyone received the Devouring Demon Flower and didn't hesitate, immediately stuffing it into their mouths. At this time, who cared whether the Devouring Demon Flower was worth money or not.
However, just because everyone ate the Devouring Demon Flower didn't mean they weren't afraid of these snakes. So many snakes, even if they weren't poisonous, attacking together could surely bite them to death alive.
Helian Tiehua and Wolf Monk clenched their fists, the two had already moved together, cautiously watching the surroundings. The snake swarm was slowly approaching, and the group was entirely surrounded; escaping was undeniably impossible for them.
Even Helian Tiehua and Wolf Monk were now furrowing their brows deeply. With their strength, escaping from here would not be difficult. But if they could escape, what about the others?
"Looks like we'll have to battle head-on!" Cui Yu whispered as he lightly drew the Seven-Star Ancient Sword.
The others also pulled out their weapons, but still couldn't escape the feeling of fear. With so many venomous snakes charging at them, their chances of survival were quite slim.
Ye Qing also gripped the Scabbard of The Ancestor of Miao Dao tightly, his situation being the most troublesome as he now had no Inner Strength. Trapped by so many venomous snakes, he had absolutely no hope of survival and needed to find a way to escape from here!
Glancing around, Ye Qing's gaze finally landed on the cars. After a moment's pondering, he suddenly patted Cui Yulong beside him, whispering, "Cui the Second, help me out."
"What's up?" Cui Yulong whispered.
Ye Qing leaned over to Cui Yulong's ear and said a few words, causing Cui Yulong's eyes to light up as he immediately nodded, saying, "Leave it to me!"
After speaking, Cui Yulong casually slapped the wooden box on his back, and with a sound of Long Yin, the Ink Pattern Black Gold Blade sprung out. Grabbing the Ink Pattern Black Gold Blade, Cui Yulong charged directly to the side of one of the cars, slicing forcefully at the car's fuel tank, cutting it in half, allowing the gasoline inside to spill out.
After slashing the fuel tank open, Cui Yulong jumped into the car, started it, switched gears, then hopped out, letting the vehicle drive towards the route by itself.
The route was covered in venomous snakes, but since there was no one in the car, naturally no one felt fear. The vehicle moved forward slowly, crashing into the pile of snakes until a python flipped it over. The car's fuel tank kept spilling fuel, leaving a gasoline trail behind.
By this time Ye Qing was already prepared, seeing that the car was overturned, Ye Qing immediately said, "Everyone get in the car!"
After saying that, Ye Qing himself jumped into the driver's seat and started the vehicle.
"Why get in the car now? You think we can drive out?" Bai Li Xi asked loudly.
"Stop talking, get on the car!" Cui Yulong grabbed Bai Li Xi and hoisted him up onto the car.
The other people, although puzzled, had no time to ask further questions, quickly got into the vehicle. Of course, there wasn't enough room inside for everyone, so a few jumped on the roof.
Helian Tiehua and Wolf Monk didn't get on the car, Helian Tiehua said to Ye Qing, "We don't need to get on, you guys go ahead, we'll protect you!"
"Okay!" Ye Qing didn't have time for more words and started the vehicle, then glanced back at Cui Yulong.
Understanding the cue, Cui Yulong took out a lighter, igniting it and tossing it onto the gasoline trail. The gasoline met fire and ignited immediately, forming a flame trail that burned all the way to the overturned car.
The car's fuel tank had been slashed, creating a gap, and now that the flames reached it, the result was predictable. In no time, the vehicle exploded with a loud bang, sending the surrounding snake masses flying. Moreover, the entire car was aflame, with blazing flames that prevented the snake masses from daring to approach.
At this moment, Ye Qing also drove swiftly past. Facing the burning car, Ye Qing did not avoid it but crashed directly into it, nearly pushing the burning car outward with his vehicle.
The car was engulfed in flames, and snakes feared fire, naturally not daring to approach. Therefore, Ye Qing drove against the car, scaring those snakes into fleeing upon seeing them, not daring to obstruct.
"Not good, stop them!" came the angry shout of Snake Gentleman from afar, followed immediately by two figures that dashed toward the vehicle.
One of them was Slaughter Venerable. The other, dressed in Taoist attire with a cruel look in his eyes, appeared to be the Sky-Killing Master.
The two rushed forward together, aiming to knock over this vehicle and prevent the people from escaping.
However, Helian Tiehua and Wolf Monk were also with the car. Seeing the two rush forward, Helian Tiehua and Wolf Monk hesitated not and charged ahead. Wolf Monk intercepted Slaughter Venerable, while Helian Tiehua confronted Sky-Killing Master, and the four engaged in battle.
"Humph, Helian Tiehua, do you think blocking us will let them escape?" Slaughter Venerable sneered, "The Scholar is waiting outside. Even if they escape the Snake Formation, they cannot evade the Scholar's grasp."
"Brother, stop playing and help the Scholar stop these people. Capture the guy named Ye and seize those six weapons," shouted Sky-Killing Master loudly, "Leave these two to us two!"
"Got it!" A cold voice rang out from the factory, followed by a white-clothed man leaping from the factory, rushing toward the outside.
Meanwhile, Ye Qing and the others were driving, almost out of the factory area. There were no more venomous snakes outside; they had finally escaped this poisonous snake zone.
However, before they could feel at ease, the burning car in front seemed to be lifted by something, flipped out, and thrown meters away. And on the road ahead stood a slender man with glasses, appearing somewhat refined.
This man didn't seem old, like a middle-aged Confucian scholar. If not for the occasional lewdness in his eyes, people would have definitely mistaken him for a middle-aged scholar. However, everyone knew this man was likely the most terrifying among the Three Great Villains—the Executioner Scholar!
"Form the array!" shouted Cui Yu, as Killing Gate Seven Hidden jumped down from the car, readying the Seven Kills Formation against the Executioner Scholar.
At that moment, another white-clothed man rushed up from behind. His appearance was much older, his face shadowed in malicious hues, undoubtedly the Snake Gentleman.
"Fourth brother, this Seven Kills Formation seems interesting. How about you play with them while I deal with Sai Hua Tuo?" Snake Gentleman sneered.
"Fine!" Executioner Scholar nodded slowly, surveying the Seven Kills Formation calmly, "If I can't break the formation in three moves, I'll let you all go!"
"Quite the boast!" Ghost King Li Ruoyuan shouted angrily, "I want to see how you break our Seven Kills Formation in three moves!"
Executioner Scholar's expression remained calm as he slowly stepped forward. This step appeared slow, yet by the time his foot landed, he was already before the Seven Kills Formation.
"Be careful!" Cui Yu shouted, as Killing Gate Seven Hidden tensed and attacked in unison. Seven weapons, striking together with the Seven Kills Formation, hit the Executioner Scholar simultaneously.
The Scholar casually sidestepped, effortlessly avoiding the strike, "First move!"
Through this encounter, they witnessed the Executioner Scholar's prowess. Cui Yu's face tightened as he spoke firmly, "Use the ultimate move!"
Not daring to slacken, everyone unleashed their full strength, charging at the Executioner Scholar once more.
Executioner Scholar dodged easily again, saying coolly, "Second move!"
"Kill!" Cui Yu shouted, unable to worry about anything else, as everyone charged desperately at the Executioner Scholar.
Executioner Scholar stayed calm, watching everyone's collective strike, suddenly reaching out with a palm to meet theirs.
The Seven Kills Formation was potent, and using its power, the collective attack reached a peak master level. This full-force strike was even stronger. Yet, upon clashing with Executioner Scholar's palm, their force felt like it hit nothing. Instead, a terrifying force surged back at them, with seven individuals having no time to react before being knocked back. Killing Gate Seven Hidden was simultaneously floored.
Within three moves, the Seven Kills Formation, indeed broken by Executioner Scholar!
